Actually, you know what it 22 00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:08.879 really is. First, it really is incredible. But they wear 23 00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:09.920 those nose plugs. 24 00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:10.519 Yeah. 25 00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.400 I don't like that, you know, Yeah, I don't like 26 00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:16.280 that they look Yeah, I don't like it at all. 27 00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:21.319 And the and they wear this makeup, water water waterproof makeup. Yeah, 28 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:23.640 but it doesn't even make them look real. 29 00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:27.519 They look like dolls. Yeah. 30 00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:30.120 It looks like somebody that's going to a wedding, like 31 00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:30.959 porcelain dolls. 32 00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:31.439 Almost. 33 00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:33.519 Yeah, And you think, well, you know, I'm gonna be 34 00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:35.920 in pictures, so I have to have my makeup done, 35 00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:38.239 and then it looks like somebody painted it on. 36 00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:39.159 It's too much. 37 00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:43.719 Yeah, yeah, but I get it. They all want to 38 00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:46.040 look alike Freddy, it's part of it. They got to 39 00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:53.879 look alike. But to do that underwater and not touching 40 00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:56.719 the bottom, not pushing off the bottom, you got you 41 00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.200 gotta tread water the whole time. 42 00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:02.280 And I mean, pretty incredible, very incredible. 43 00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:06.040 Well, you know, I don't know why you would be 44 00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:09.840 that impressed about them being able to tread water, because 45 00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:13.000 I did have my Red Cross Swimmer card or I 46 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:18.120 had to tread water for ten minutes you did, oh yeah, 47 00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:20.719 and then I got a Red Cross Swimmer card and 48 00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.000 know what I mean, Yes, what does that mean? 49 00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:24.719 That mean? What does that mean? 50 00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:27.599 I don't know now when I think back to this today, 51 00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:29.120 to this day, you don't know what it means. 52 00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:31.800 I don't know. I just knew I should have it. 53 00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:37.520 Well, you like like a certified lifeguard or you certified, 54 00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:39.800 you know, like you you're a swim instructor. 55 00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:41.520 I mean, what is it? What does it get you 56 00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:45.280 if you because it's certainly you had to prepare for it, right. 57 00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:47.639 Well, you had to tread water for ten minutes. You're 58 00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:50.759 right that looking back on this, and it was such 59 00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:55.080 a monumental moment for me to get the swimmer card 60 00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:57.319 and it had the little red cross on it in 61 00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.759 my name, but it really didn't allow me to do 62 00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:04.240 any anything, but I had the card. So I don't 63 00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:06.120 know why I had the card now when I think 64 00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:07.919 about it, but I know it was a big deal. 65 00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:11.599 I wasn't a lifeguard. I couldn't save anybody. But you 66 00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:14.639 could tread water for ten minutes. Yes, good for you, Fred, 67 00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:17.439 I could have been in synchronized swimming. I could have 68 00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:18.439 been in water polo. 69 00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:20.680 Uh was it like that? 70 00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:21.000 Uh? 71 00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.319 Who's that? Who's that patch? You used to get back 72 00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:26.360 in the day. The President's show athletic patch or something like. 73 00:03:26.439 --> 00:03:27.159 You used to get that. 74 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:33.599 Physical fitness physical fitness patch, you right, get this big 75 00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:34.199 old patch. 76 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:35.879 He had to do. 77 00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:40.759 Minimal, minimal stuff at pe. Right, it's not even pee anymore. 78 00:03:40.919 --> 00:03:44.039 That was the same word aising ourselves, Fred, But you 79 00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:45.960 do this thing, that pee. There was a bunch of 80 00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:49.240 stuff you had to do to get that patch. I 81 00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.400 remember people were so excited to get that presidential patch. 82 00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:56.240 That made nothing. It made me have to You had 83 00:03:56.280 --> 00:03:57.280 to run like fifty feet. 84 00:03:57.439 --> 00:03:59.800 You had to run fifty feet, yeah, or you had 85 00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:01.960 to yeah, fifty feet, or you had to run a 86 00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.000 mile like in an hour. You had to finish in 87 00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:07.120 an hour, whether you walked or round you could. If 88 00:04:07.159 --> 00:04:08.879 you finish, you got the patch. 89 00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:16.000 The presidential physical fitness thing, right, I remember that. You 90 00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:17.879 know I didn't get that. I had to tell you 91 00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:20.839 I got the swimmer card, but I didn't get the patch. 92 00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:25.680 No, I didn't get the pack. All right. 93 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:27.720 So we are gonna have another Olympic story coming up 94 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:29.680 in the next segment. Are you a big fan of 95 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:36.240 the pole vault, Rodney? I am? 96 00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:39.199 I am. Now I'm a little jealous. Right, let me 97 00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:39.879 tell you something. 98 00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:42.360 Look, I don't want to speak out of turn. I 99 00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:44.040 think every woman on the planet is a fair of 100 00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:49.759 the Pole vault now, yes, and some men. All right, 101 00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.079 so we'll talk about that coming up here in the 102 00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.480 next segment. Yeah, all right, Ned COLLETI was on the show. 103 00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:58.319 He talked about the Dodger schedule now and what it's 104 00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:01.680 going to be like for basically the next month, because 105 00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:06.000 it's not easy yet. The Padre schedule is far easier. 106 00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:10.480 So Rodney, I think we're to a point now and 107 00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:12.759 thank goodness, guys are coming back max months. He should 108 00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:16.160 be back soon. Yes, we hope, Yeah, we hope, but 109 00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:20.639 he should be. I think we're to a point where 110 00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:23.920 whatever this season is going to be for the Dodgers 111 00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:27.279 is going to be determined in the next month. I 112 00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:29.680 think that's that's what it's come down to. You know, 113 00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:31.879 you come out of the next month comfortable, You're good 114 00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:32.120 to go. 115 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:34.720 I mean, you think about it. I just pulled it 116 00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:36.800 up looking at it right now. I mean, we're playing 117 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:38.839 the Phillies right now. Got one more game tonight with 118 00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:41.240 the Phillies and some rubber matches who wins the series. 119 00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:45.480 Then you got the Pittsburgh Pirates coming in over the weekend, 120 00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:48.399 who you know, they got a nice pitching staff and 121 00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:50.959 obviously they can do some damage. And then you go 122 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:54.399 back to first place Milwaukee, back there for four games 123 00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:57.439 at their place and they're leading their division. They got 124 00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:00.800 you know, a nice lead, and in the Cardinals and 125 00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.600 the Mariners in Tampa Bay. But then you got Baltimore 126 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:06.720 at the end of the month back you know here, 127 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:10.240 back here, and then go to Arizona at the end. 128 00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:14.399 So it's not easy by any stretch of the imaginations. 129 00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:19.639 When you throw you know, the division leaders like Philadelphia 130 00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:23.480 and Milwaukee, Baltimore, who's right there with the Yankees, and 131 00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.000 then your rival Arizona in the mix in the next 132 00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.879 thirty days, it's gonna be difficult. 133 00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:30.319 It's gonna be very difficult. 134 00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.439 Yeah, I think their fate will be sealed one way 135 00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:35.240 or the other. If they come out of this and 136 00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:39.920 again it's been this kind of year. Red hot then 137 00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:40.839 what happened? 138 00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:43.360 Then hot? Then cool? 139 00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.319 If they can now start to build this momentum now 140 00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:52.040 and everything comes together and maybe Rodney, when you get 141 00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:55.600 Mookie back and Munsey comes back, yeah, and guys start 142 00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:02.519 coming back, it generates a little momentum for him. Maybe 143 00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:05.279 if that's the case. They come out of this looking 144 00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:06.079 pretty good. 145 00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:08.079 And they could and they need to come out of 146 00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:11.680 looking pretty good or at least making sure that they're 147 00:07:13.079 --> 00:07:16.959 you know right now four games. You know, anything can happen, 148 00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:20.360 but have either a nice distance or eat if it 149 00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:23.439 gets to be close. Because at the end in September, 150 00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:26.879 you know, we got that ever favorite to get right 151 00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:28.759 games with the Colorado Rockies. 152 00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:32.160 We got six of those in September ready, so you know, 153 00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:35.519 this is saving grace if you're worried about this month. 154 00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:36.680 We got six. 155 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:40.199 Games with the Rockies in September and throwing some Miami 156 00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:43.879 Marlins in there too, that will help us out a 157 00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:46.879 little bit, so, you know, in a couple against the 158 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.000 guys down the road in Orange County Angels. So you know, 159 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:54.240 if we're close coming out of August, September. 160 00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:55.120 Is gonna be a really good month for us. 161 00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:59.120 Yeah, and here's the thing too, They're gonna make the playoffs. 162 00:07:59.240 --> 00:07:59.800 We know that. 163 00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.839 You know, well, god forbid, what would happen? Seriously, what 164 00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:06.360 would happen if they didn't win the division and it 165 00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:10.600 went into a wild card? Would people completely freak? I 166 00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:12.560 don't think it would matter one bit. Quite frankly, but 167 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:14.759 wildcards would beat them. 168 00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:18.759 Absolutely, absolutely. It wouldn't matter as long as you know 169 00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:21.240 when the playoffs start. I think all the people care about, Oh, 170 00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:22.560 it's the playoffs, playoff start. 171 00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:24.079 We got we got a series against so and so. 172 00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:27.000 Does it matter if we're we won the division and 173 00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:33.000 we're we're facing San Diego or we're facing the Cubs. No, 174 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:37.120 or we're the wild card and we're facing Atlanta or 175 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:41.200 we're facing somebody else. I mean, certainly you would like 176 00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:46.480 to be you know, have the best record, so you 177 00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:48.759 have home field all the way through. Dodger fans want 178 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.159 to come to more games, and you know, you want 179 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:54.320 to take the path of Leaf's resistance. 180 00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:57.960 But we've seen there's no such thing in Makes League baseball. 181 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.080 As Ned Colletti pointed out, it's really a team that 182 00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:03.879 gets hot, and a lot of times it's the wildcard 183 00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:06.440 teams that are fighting to get into playoffs at the 184 00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:08.440 end of the year that are the hottest teams in 185 00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:11.639 the league that nobody wants to face because they've been 186 00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:15.159 playing playoff baseball for three weeks leading into the playoffs. 187 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:18.759 So it doesn't always work out if you're running away 188 00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:21.320 with division waiting on the worst team or the team 189 00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:23.480 with the worst record. Is that team with the worst 190 00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:26.360 record may have just won fifteen straight to get into 191 00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:29.240 the playoffs, right right. 192 00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:36.879 So all I'm saying is, you've got to be hot 193 00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:39.679 at the right time. It's a conversation we have constantly. 194 00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.080 We know what happens when you're not, because we've seen 195 00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:44.480 the movie and we know how it ends a couple 196 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:47.320 of years now, you just got to be ready at 197 00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:50.440 the right time. And when you're ready and you're playing 198 00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:52.960 and you've got a little momentum and your guys are healthy, 199 00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.639 I think you're fine. And that's why I have zero 200 00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:02.279 panic about this. I mean, sure, you're concer, but even 201 00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:04.279 when they won over one hundred games, did it matter 202 00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:04.799 at the end? 203 00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:07.120 No, did it matter? 204 00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:09.960 You agonized all year and they're over one hundred wins 205 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:12.559 and this is terrific, and then they go get blown out. 206 00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:15.639 It doesn't matter. It really doesn't. 207 00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:19.279 I mean, you have to play the regular season, you 208 00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:21.519 do for the right to get to the playoffs. 209 00:10:21.960 --> 00:10:25.639 Yeah, but now it doesn't. I mean even home field 210 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:29.559 doesn't really matter that much. So you play three games 211 00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:32.559 instead of four at home, if you go seven, right, 212 00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:35.440 you're gonna have to win a game on the road anyway, right, 213 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:37.440 No matter what, you're gonna have to win on the road. 214 00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:43.759 So it doesn't really matter other than getting right at 215 00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:46.360 the right time and managing the season to get guys 216 00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:49.399 in form to be able to play in October. 217 00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:54.960 Yep, all right, So we got to talk about the 218 00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:59.120 poll next. I'm sorry, the pole vault. We've got to 219 00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:07.279 talk about the pole vault next. Yeah, you cannot dislodge 220 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.720 the bar, and if any part of you hits the bar, 221 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:18.879 it could come down. So the unexpected part caused the damage, 222 00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:20.000 and we'll discuss it. 223 00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.720 Oh yeah, good to be back. Good to be back. 224 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:29.399 I love this place. I love this town. 225 00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:31.679 No matter where I go around the world, Freddie, I 226 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:33.519 love being back home in La. 227 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:35.679 This is my home and I love it. 228 00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:40.120 Let's go all right, So this happened over the weekend, 229 00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:42.879 but the athlete is speaking out today, so maybe you've 230 00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:46.559 seen it already. Uh, let's just review some of the 231 00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.799 rules of the pole vault. Let let's just start by 232 00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:51.879 by looking at it like this. 233 00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:54.240 I'm going to review the rules. Huh, Well, we got 234 00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:56.200 we got it was simple. I thought you get over 235 00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:59.000 the bar. Are you good? Okay, so what height it is? 236 00:11:59.080 --> 00:12:00.440 Right? Get over it? Right? 237 00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:04.519 If you've never seen the pole ball, you have a pole, 238 00:12:06.279 --> 00:12:10.080 you run, you plant the pole, and then what you 239 00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:14.559 try to do is basically hoist yourself over the top 240 00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:20.519 of the bar. If you clear the bar, you've done it. Yes, 241 00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:22.039 it's like a hid till with a pole. 242 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:22.759 Yeah. 243 00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:27.480 If you touch the bar but the bar does not 244 00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:33.559 come down, you've done it. So normally in this situation. 245 00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:38.440 Oh and by the way, if you touch the bar 246 00:12:38.559 --> 00:12:41.200 with anything and it doesn't come down, you're okay. 247 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:42.240 So here's the thing. 248 00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:46.399 Yeah, in this pr situation, the athlete, and maybe you've 249 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:53.360 seen it, Anthony Amaradi of France, approaches the bar. Now 250 00:12:54.639 --> 00:13:01.080 he hoists himself up. It was interesting. His shoulder didn't 251 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:10.279 touch the bar, his arm didn't touch the bar, his 252 00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:18.000 back really didn't touch the bar. But at one point, 253 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.559 just very subtly, his leg just brushed the bar. That 254 00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:29.080 wasn't enough to bring it down. So imagine his excitement 255 00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:35.559 knowing that in the Olympics he had cleared the bar. 256 00:13:36.919 --> 00:13:41.279 Cleared it, yes, and really there was nothing else that 257 00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:45.080 could have brushed against it, nothing else could have hit 258 00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:45.639 the bar. 259 00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:50.240 Because he had done it. 260 00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:55.039 Legs, but his feet, his arms, he did torso everything 261 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:55.679 cleared the bar. 262 00:13:56.600 --> 00:14:00.080 I mean, can you imagine his friends and family watch 263 00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:04.360 on TV and seeing this and going, oh my god, 264 00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:07.600 this is my friend, this is my brother, this is 265 00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:13.519 my son. He's done it in France. He's cleared the 266 00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:20.159 bar at the Olympics. Now there's one thing that got 267 00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.120 him in this situation, and it gets almost anybody. As 268 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:29.600 you leap up, you release the pole, which he did, 269 00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:34.759 because sometimes the pole can fall the wrong way and 270 00:14:34.799 --> 00:14:35.639 knock the bar down. 271 00:14:36.080 --> 00:14:39.759 Correct, correct, that was not the case here. 272 00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:44.799 But you could argue that it was a pole that 273 00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:49.120 knocked the bar down, not the one he was running with. 274 00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:59.559 The problem was that Anthony was so and is so 275 00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:11.960 incredibly well endowed that that's what hit the bar, that 276 00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:20.960 got it because he was so generously blessed, it was 277 00:15:21.000 --> 00:15:25.399 so big that it was the thing that knocked down 278 00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:31.919 the bar and ruined his Olympic dream. Yes, now he 279 00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:35.799 talked about it, if it and it only was the 280 00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:40.159 thing to hit the bar. Yeah, yeah, he said it 281 00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:45.559 was a big disappointment. Well, it certainly was a big disappointment. 282 00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:51.960 He said it was at one hundred percent physically, But 283 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:55.799 I missed a little bit of the pole. You could 284 00:15:55.879 --> 00:15:59.519 argue that, no, the pole got it. Yeah, you could 285 00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:04.200 argue that, yeah. I mean, look, it's tough to see 286 00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:08.039 your Olympic dream go that way. But on the other hand, 287 00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:11.000 he has probably given almost every woman on the planet 288 00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:13.120 a chance to dream. 289 00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:14.279 Yes he has. 290 00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:20.840 He has been a internet viral sensation now and the 291 00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:23.879 first time maybe well maybe not the first time, but 292 00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:27.200 first time like this for not actually winning gold. 293 00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:33.320 Oh, he's won gold. Here's the couple of questions. 294 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:38.720 We got a couple of questions, sure are First off, 295 00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:44.200 is he married or does he have a girlfriend? And 296 00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:48.039 what that girlfriend was thinking or as she watched that, 297 00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:50.120 and did she watch. 298 00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:51.960 Being very proud. 299 00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:57.000 And and and knowing that people were envious that that 300 00:16:57.159 --> 00:16:57.679 was her man? 301 00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:00.679 Well, I don't know if he has a wife or 302 00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:03.559 a girlfriend. I have heard that at times she kind 303 00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:04.519 of has trouble walking. 304 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:09.559 Oh okay, okay, we're doing that. 305 00:17:09.920 --> 00:17:17.279 Okay, listen, okay, okay, yeah it was he it was Look, 306 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:19.039 it was really interesting. 307 00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:22.319 Poor guy had trained Kevin maybe even look up if 308 00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:24.119 he's married he did? 309 00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:32.200 Uh? Or or Freddy Freddy maybe maybe you. 310 00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:36.559 Know, sometimes you need a little inspiration for you know, 311 00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:39.240 right before you compete, there are things that you know, 312 00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:42.759 you think about. I would listen to to really some 313 00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:45.680 intense music before a game before I went out to play, 314 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:49.279 or visualize myself doing something before I go out to play. 315 00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:54.519 Maybe maybe he had some thoughts in his head before 316 00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:57.599 he took off for that pole vault, and then those 317 00:17:57.759 --> 00:18:06.000 thoughts to him because those thoughts aroused him enough that 318 00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:11.359 had he not been aroused, Freddy, the bar would not. 319 00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:11.759 Have been hit. 320 00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:17.359 That's a fair question, fair point. Quite honestly, he was 321 00:18:17.400 --> 00:18:20.559 perhaps aroused just by competing in the Olympics. I don't 322 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:24.519 know if that in any way, shape or form affected 323 00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:30.119 his performance, but it did happen over the weekend. We 324 00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:32.799 just brought it up today because he talked about it 325 00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:42.799 and the conditions were good. It was just a big disappointment. Yeah, well, 326 00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:45.400 but he certainly made a name for himself. Yes he did, 327 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.039 and you know what years to come. That's the Olympic 328 00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:49.240 spirit right there. 329 00:18:50.119 --> 00:18:53.799 He used to come. You can walk around France with 330 00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:56.319 his head held high. Fred Yeah. I mean I'll tell 331 00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:56.519 you what. 332 00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:58.680 You probably can't tell me who won fencing, but you 333 00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:00.559 certainly know the guy knocked out of the whole vault. 334 00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:08.240 So he's made a name for himself. All right. 335 00:19:08.279 --> 00:19:11.400 Now, let's bring on a man who has established a 336 00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:19.160 name for many years, beloved by all A beacon, a 337 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:22.799 cherry on the top of Sunday's humanity.

You got to train, you gotta qualify in 357 00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:44.799 your own country. You you got to compete against other 358 00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:47.200 great athletes and then to get to the opportunity to 359 00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:52.799 actually compete on that stage is incredible.
