WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.159 --> 00:00:02.720 Hey, welcome back to Ia the Ball. Here on Fox 2 00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:07.040 Sports fourteen fifty. I'm Steve Rivera eas Mike in today 3 00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:09.560 with I guess post, and now we have Henry with 4 00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:10.320 breaking news. 5 00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:16.039 This is the Ball, Breaking news on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. 6 00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:20.920 Desert Diamond Arena and Arizona Athletics have mutually agreed that 7 00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:24.039 the twenty twenty four Red Blue Showcase in Glendale on 8 00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:26.920 October eleventh will be postponed until next year. 9 00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:29.000 Not a shock to me. 10 00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.199 I thought this was going to come at some point 11 00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:35.000 today or yesterday or someday, because I don't think the 12 00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:35.719 ticket sales are. 13 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:36.280 Going very well. 14 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.840 One and two, I think circumstances of other things going 15 00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:43.320 up in the valley kind of dictated this. It was 16 00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.039 a great idea, I thought. In fact, someone texted me 17 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:49.920 ten minutes ago thinking that the thing was a bad 18 00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:54.119 idea because it's in issue country. But it's not really 19 00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:57.119 an Asian country. It's in Glendale, up up near Vegas. 20 00:00:57.600 --> 00:00:59.439 You know, you've driven up there. It's just way up 21 00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.039 there that direction. Arizona needs. This is what I thought 22 00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.359 when they first announced it. That was a pretty good idea. 23 00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.239 They need money, right, They need money, Whether it's I 24 00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:11.200 and I l money or otherwise, and why not, right, 25 00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:13.719 if you get ten thousand people in that arena, there's 26 00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:17.159 some women. Whatever the price we're gonna pay. But now 27 00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:18.239 I'm not shocked either. 28 00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.560 Well, I will tell you, Glendale, it's one thing to 29 00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:25.519 draw you know, NFL teams or you know college football 30 00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:29.560 playoff team fans to Glendale, But you're not going to 31 00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:32.159 get that many fans out of Glendale. No, I mean, 32 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.640 I quite honestly, I think that you'd have a better 33 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:37.799 shot doing it, uh doing it downtown Phoenix. 34 00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:40.920 There's a lot of ag no question, no question, or 35 00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:43.040 at arena like well, I don't even know what the 36 00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:45.439 arena would be. But not too far up you know, 37 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:49.359 there's ye, there's there's a lot of Arizona alums there 38 00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:52.239 up there, right, we can acknowledge that. But but they're 39 00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:57.840 also they they're thirsty for maybe more than just red blue, right, yeah, right, 40 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.519 and they go to games like for regular season in games. 41 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:02.959 But hey, hey, Mildred, you want to go across the 42 00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:04.560 town to go see the Red Blue game? 43 00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.719 And let's let's take an hour and twenty minute drive 44 00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:08.960 to Glendale. 45 00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:10.520 Right, just might as well just come down to Duson. Yeah, 46 00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:14.039 because that's just how it is. It's unfortunate. Sure, not 47 00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:17.479 surprising to me. Yeah, yeah, it was kind of. It 48 00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:18.080 was interesting. 49 00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.319 When I saw it, I was like, I was like, oh, hey, 50 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:23.080 this would be oh wait a minute, where Glendale right right? 51 00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:26.120 Yeah, I'm not doing that. Yeah, yeah, Footprint. 52 00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:28.439 I think they they may not have sold out footprint, 53 00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:30.039 but they would have had a better crew, and I 54 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:31.159 think they would have had a better crowd. 55 00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:32.000 And that's more of a. 56 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:35.599 How can I say this, more of a central part 57 00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.919 for Arizona Arizona fans. Sure, and there's a bunch of 58 00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:42.199 there's no question. Yeah, I think there's plenty. There'd have 59 00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:45.080 been enough. Yeah, right. Of course, footprint is probably a 60 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.240 lot more expensive to use. 61 00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:50.639 To Carrio. 62 00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.080 Davis was named the Big twelve Defensive Player of the Week. 63 00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:56.240 He had five past difflections in the game. 64 00:02:56.319 --> 00:02:59.080 Were you I'm I'm disappointed that Matt wasn't here because 65 00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.240 you saw you saw the read right, We're we all 66 00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:04.240 got to get right. Well, we were on the thread 67 00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:08.159 and uh you Matt, Jay and me and I'm listening 68 00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:09.439 because I don't want to get in both of this. 69 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:13.159 Uh and Jay Jay was saying he's making some money tonight, 70 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:16.039 which he very well could, because there's some thoughts that 71 00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:18.039 he could be a high round draft picker. Maybe not, 72 00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:20.479 and and Matt, I don't want to speak for Mat, 73 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:24.039 but what's Matt thinking. No, no, that he's not going 74 00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:26.639 to be right. There's some questions about his ability and 75 00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:27.680 blah blah blah. Uh. 76 00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:30.879 They tested him and he showed up. He looked whole world. 77 00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:33.199 I mean, they went at him fourth down and they said, 78 00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:35.759 it's like going, Okay, you're gonna they put that that 79 00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:39.199 that big tight end. He was out on that big 80 00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:41.840 tight end on that one fourth down play, which I 81 00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:44.599 think that that play might have to your point earlier, 82 00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:47.120 it might have changed the game. On that big fourth 83 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:49.319 downboard down, he just stocked. He just knocked it away 84 00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:53.360 the uh as a sick as a six fourth corner 85 00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:56.159 and you don't run into six fourk and you're good 86 00:03:56.560 --> 00:03:57.840 and you're good and you're good. 87 00:03:57.919 --> 00:03:58.159 Yeah. 88 00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:01.680 So this is what I thought, because I watched some 89 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:03.879 of it early, all of it. Actually I was getting 90 00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:08.400 text God singers destroying us, the singers destroying us, and 91 00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:11.240 they were talking about you know, he was guests beating Davis. 92 00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:13.159 And then all of a sudden he wasn't and then 93 00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:16.560 Davis had this game. So it depends on the throw, 94 00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:19.199 depends on the moment. Yeah, well, I guess you know. 95 00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:21.839 It depends on how you do and where an acted down. 96 00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:23.160 He seemed to have good position. 97 00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.480 Now when they scored that touchdown at the start of 98 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.319 the fourth quarter on that long on that long pass play, 99 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:31.439 he looked a little out of position. Well, he looked 100 00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:33.680 a lot out of position. He was way off the 101 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:37.040 receiver and the receiver got had a pretty uh had 102 00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:38.959 a pretty easy catch, catch and throw. 103 00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:40.079 Uh. 104 00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:43.360 Now, you know, take one look at me and you 105 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:45.839 realize that I don't play a lot of cornerback. I mean, 106 00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:48.439 I don't even play cornerback when we're playing touch football. 107 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:52.680 But I will say this, like the plays that he made, 108 00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:54.639 he was right on those guys. 109 00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:56.600 They were making those cuts. 110 00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:02.600 The MLB playoff match have been announced for the Al Tigers, 111 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.879 Astras and Royals Orioles that will be starting tomorrow. The 112 00:05:05.879 --> 00:05:08.879 Mets Braves game is happening right now. The Mets one 113 00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:12.040 game one and they clenched and the Braves are leading 114 00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:14.720 three nothing, and we'll clench with a win to eliminate 115 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:15.560 the Diamondbacks. 116 00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:18.560 Wow, that was right. Right. So I watched the Diamonds 117 00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:21.279 this out of curiosity over the weekend, and I think 118 00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:23.560 it was Saturday's game when they was there tied going 119 00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:25.040 in to the ninth, I think it was zero zero, 120 00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:27.480 and then they gave up five runs and then think, 121 00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:29.680 oh this is over, and then they still have hope. 122 00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:31.439 They had hope going into today, right. 123 00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:33.319 They needed one of the teams to sweep the other 124 00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:34.279 to sweet the other. 125 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:37.120 Right, so well, a heck of a heck of another 126 00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:38.720 heck of a run, but not good in them. 127 00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:40.519 Yeah, it's like just short. Yeah. 128 00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:44.480 There are two Monday night football games this week, the 129 00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:47.959 Titians at Dolphins at four point thirty and the Seahawks 130 00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:49.519 at Lions at five point fifteen. 131 00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:53.040 What's up of your Dolphins? I don't know. They're terrible. Well, 132 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.000 they don't have a quarterback. 133 00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:57.560 Okay, so they they put all their money in on Tua, 134 00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.160 which you know is like going not blying a glass 135 00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.920 figurine for you know, don't touch it, forty million, break it, 136 00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:07.560 you must pay for it. Don't ever touch this. You know, 137 00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:09.680 I have a house full of kids and a big 138 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:15.399 glass sculpture, so you know, and once, once, they lost too. 139 00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:15.759 Well. 140 00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:16.360 That is the other thing. 141 00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:18.959 I mean, they've dumped a lot of money into receivers. 142 00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:21.839 They got Waddle that that they just got an extension to. 143 00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:26.000 They got to Hill that they gave a huge extension to. 144 00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:29.079 They got two of that they gave. They got cornerbacks, 145 00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:32.079 they gave extension to. What they lack are linemen and 146 00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:38.120 linebackers particularly. They got great running backs, no offensive line. 147 00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:40.079 How's that million dollar house that you have no prediction, 148 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:40.920 no security for? 149 00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:44.279 Right, It's like geez, Louise, it's a you know, they 150 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.680 haven't you know, they haven't built. Now you look at 151 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.120 a team like Houston, Houston has built. 152 00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:51.079 You know, they were. 153 00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:54.160 Good, awful, I mean terrible, which is why they got 154 00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:57.439 so many early draft picks. But they built their line. 155 00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:00.879 And then after they built their line, now they've got 156 00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:04.240 draft picks. Now they picked up uh c J. Stroud 157 00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:07.720 and uh Harry who's that? Who's their defensive guy that 158 00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:08.439 they that they. 159 00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:12.399 Got on, uh Daniel Hunter. Yeah, they and you know, 160 00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:14.000 so it's like I love kids. 161 00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:17.480 They know all that exactly, and so it's like, yeah, 162 00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:20.079 they're uh that's the thing that they that they that 163 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:22.680 they did. Dolphins did it. The other way, and I don't, 164 00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:24.680 and I think they're going to pay the price. Okay, 165 00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:27.759 they got Huntley his quarterback today, so at least they 166 00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:30.480 are trying something. We'll see what, We'll see how that 167 00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:31.000 all goes. 168 00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:35.720 Hall of Famer to Kemy Matumba was announced dead today 169 00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:38.000 at age fifty eight due to brain cancer. 170 00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:38.399 Right. 171 00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:40.759 I saw that, you know, the shaking of the finger guy, 172 00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.839 A good player, Georgetown product.
