happy weekend if you feel like put you mostly well,

9
00:00:43,359 --> 00:00:45,520
I mean Thursday and Friday's a little dicey. You're not

10
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,679
a Duke fan. I didn't sleep in the yard last night.

11
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:53,159
How you did? Yes? Is that because of you? Or

12
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,880
is that because of Yukon or both? It was because

13
00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:01,759
of Yukon. Yukon. You go to the U backyard where

14
00:01:01,759 --> 00:01:05,079
you sleep, you come back and hit a crazy three.

15
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,280
You choke nothing like March. Yeah, that was a collapse

16
00:01:09,359 --> 00:01:13,280
back when I was a young man learning this business

17
00:01:13,599 --> 00:01:16,439
and saying, man, how dare you you ball? While I

18
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,560
wasn't bald at the time, you partially haired, fat guy.

19
00:01:19,599 --> 00:01:25,560
You cannot be calling people chokers. But we're changing. No,

20
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,400
because I lost weight and because I've lost my hair.

21
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:30,280
I'm just saying that Okay, we as a society are changing.

22
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,560
That's an that's not about the last play. It's a

23
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,319
nineteen point joke. Choke and joke. To me, choke should

24
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,439
only be used when somebody completely panic froze in the

25
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:48,680
moment and didn't try comebacks happened like really the Rockets, well,

26
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,359
we can call it a choke, but it just it

27
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,040
was a comeback. They they weren't frozen, they weren't lost,

28
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,680
They just started missing shots and then the Timberwolves made everything. Okay,

29
00:01:57,719 --> 00:02:00,480
so you know what, then you can choke then, I

30
00:02:00,719 --> 00:02:02,640
I mean Duke choked. Okay, so you think it was

31
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,280
a yeah, I it was a complete panic. Yes, Then

32
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,759
when you're a panic, that to me is that's so

33
00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:11,479
that's to me, this is my definite all right, So

34
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,479
let me let me rephrase. I hate I hate the

35
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,840
term choke. I understand, So let me back off. I'm

36
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:21,800
going to back off on the choke. Yukon completely panicked.

37
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:28,560
I'm sticking with choke. That Duke choked. Yeah, Duke semantics right,

38
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,479
when you make or misshots, that's how the cookie crumbles.

39
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:41,000
When you got completely panicked and froze in the moment,

40
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,639
that's a choke, and they choked nineteen points, dude, and

41
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,719
see that. I was getting ready for the game. I

42
00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:50,400
had an extra television monitor with me at the Smoothieking

43
00:02:50,479 --> 00:02:52,080
Center last night, so we said, hey, let's put the

44
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,319
game on. And it kept getting smaller and smaller. And

45
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,479
then I didn't see the last few seconds because I

46
00:02:57,479 --> 00:02:59,199
was obviously about to call the play. I play off

47
00:02:59,159 --> 00:03:01,199
a basketball game. I didn't. I can't. As much as

48
00:03:01,199 --> 00:03:03,439
I wanted to focus on the game, I couldn't. And

49
00:03:03,479 --> 00:03:09,120
then the replay showed. And it's funny because Carl's boozer,

50
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,719
that's the dad of the boozer Twins, has not been

51
00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:16,199
afraid to talk about how awesome his team is and

52
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,719
how awesome his kids are. And there's always video of

53
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,280
him waving off goodbye to teams, and I mean that's

54
00:03:21,319 --> 00:03:24,120
been put out there quite a bit, and you get

55
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:32,199
CEO Carl's doing anything. Last night epically bad back to back.

56
00:03:32,719 --> 00:03:35,560
I mean, they gaffed a fifteen pointer against the Cougars too,

57
00:03:35,599 --> 00:03:37,840
right with the fourteen or fifteen last year? I think, yeah,

58
00:03:37,919 --> 00:03:40,879
it wasn't like like ten or something around a minute

59
00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:42,439
and a half or something or under that. I don't

60
00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:44,520
remember what it was as a bad choke. Oh man,

61
00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:50,000
old man, old man. Yikes, yikes, yikes. But that's their issues.

62
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,560
We got our own here in Houston. Hell, we're feeling

63
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:58,319
good right now. So I was thinking Saturday because I

64
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,879
did watch the Astros game on Saturday. I had nothing

65
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:02,879
to New New Orleans on Saturday, which is actually nicely

66
00:04:02,919 --> 00:04:06,080
by the way, kudos to New Orleans. And y'all know

67
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,800
this or not. It is a different place than it

68
00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:13,360
was even when I was there in early in the year.

69
00:04:14,039 --> 00:04:18,839
It's clean or not, we're going to be clean. You're

70
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,279
come about the city, Yeah, the arena, everything, okay, primarily

71
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,199
this city. I've only arena for a couple of hours.

72
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,439
It was very pleasant. There wasn't nearly now again, I

73
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,279
wasn't there during Marty Graw ordering uh spring break. It

74
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,360
was late, you know, late March New Year's but everybody

75
00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:40,680
was New Year's, Christmas, Thanksgiving a Rando Tuesday, sure, yeah Tuesday, Yeah,

76
00:04:40,759 --> 00:04:44,560
fat one especially. It was a really pleasant experience. And

77
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,639
I and I love New Orleans. I I like New Orleans.

78
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:48,959
I don't love it, but I like it, but I

79
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,040
liked it more this time around. Good. I love it. Yeah,

80
00:04:53,639 --> 00:04:58,240
So music, food, history, gambling. Yeah, pretty much takes care

81
00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:58,720
of all of it.

82
00:04:58,959 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 3: Now.

83
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 2: The casino boxes. Casino got me Friday, but I got

84
00:05:02,079 --> 00:05:04,560
it back on Saturdays. Okay, good, you're not gonna be please?

85
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,120
Uh No, lost a little bit bit, but better it.

86
00:05:07,199 --> 00:05:10,120
Feel better about the situation. Okay. So I'm not gonna

87
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,360
be the mid shoe. Change from fifteen to twenty five

88
00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:16,639
dollars a table is fine. I can live with that, yes,

89
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,920
But when you don't change it from six five to

90
00:05:18,959 --> 00:05:20,639
three to two on the twenty five, that's why I

91
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:22,920
have the problems. I got up and left. I'm proud

92
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,680
of you. I think it'd be I'm actually I said, look,

93
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,360
it's your money. I'm done. I mean, I'm still gonna play,

94
00:05:28,399 --> 00:05:30,399
but I just like I could if I'm gonna spend

95
00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:32,800
twenty five at a table, which I did. Ultimately, I

96
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,480
went to find with twenty five tot of three two.

97
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,319
That's good. So all right, I'm gonna cry. That's okay. Hey,

98
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,040
So Thursday and Friday people were losing their minds. Yes,

99
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,480
no clutch, hitting fire, the hitting coaches. Joe Spot has

100
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:49,319
lost his team already. Oh my god, is Dana Brown? Chemistry?

101
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,120
Chemistry is a bad juju. And then Saturday and Sunday

102
00:05:54,199 --> 00:05:55,839
did not get off to a great start. Look, the

103
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,839
pitching this weekend was not great the entire four games

104
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,120
is now you're a over sex for the start the

105
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,439
starting pitching staff that we thought was going to be uh,

106
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,399
and then we thought Fangrass was crazy for having the

107
00:06:06,399 --> 00:06:08,959
eighteenth athletic you don't know what's talking about. Well, maybe

108
00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:11,000
they do for at least a week. Yeah, well we're not.

109
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,000
We are smarter than that, and we are not going

110
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,360
to allow you guys to do what Astro Twitter does

111
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,879
lose their damn mine out in every single game. Okay,

112
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,279
so I put the AO out the warning like should

113
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,360
we do? Aos came back and one Saturday Sunday gave

114
00:06:26,439 --> 00:06:30,480
Tatsui Emi a very nice four nothing lead and well

115
00:06:30,519 --> 00:06:32,480
he didn't want to stick around to see it. He

116
00:06:32,519 --> 00:06:36,240
squandered it. And uh, it's okay. The Astro Bats came through.

117
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,240
You heard some of the highlights there, Christian Walker, friend

118
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,600
of the show doing a great job. Yes, and the

119
00:06:41,639 --> 00:06:44,000
Astros wound up getting a split, which again not what

120
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,360
you ultimately wanted. But first week in the series of

121
00:06:48,439 --> 00:06:51,480
the season. Yeah the season, Yeah, I ain't scared. Okay,

122
00:06:51,959 --> 00:06:54,519
nobody's ever want nobody's ever want a division championship in

123
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,240
late March, I mean, no one. A lot of bullpen usage,

124
00:06:58,959 --> 00:07:01,759
a lot of RODERI removed, and the boys Steven ok

125
00:07:01,959 --> 00:07:05,480
way too much rottery, way too much AJ Blue Ball

126
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:07,360
and brian O Brady will get to.

127
00:07:09,639 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 4: Now.

128
00:07:09,839 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 2: I did ask you via text what your gut feeling was.

129
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,680
You know what, It's funny. I was like, oh, he

130
00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:17,519
must be doing bad because I know I'm not gonna

131
00:07:17,519 --> 00:07:19,519
hear from you if he's if he's getting h if

132
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,160
he's going three up, three down, I know I'm not

133
00:07:21,199 --> 00:07:25,480
hearing from you. That's true. Now, you said he was

134
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,199
not gonna blow a save in the month, which he

135
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,079
did not so far, I'm good, but I said, by

136
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:34,600
the time hater comes back, but it's not the start

137
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,120
that mister Burriy would like to have seen. Well, also clean,

138
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:40,360
and also there's concerns about his velocity. He's normally a

139
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,800
guy who can is around you know, ninety seven ninety eight,

140
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,319
can run it up to one hundred, and his fastball

141
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,680
was around averaging ninety three yeah yesterday, So that is

142
00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:52,399
certainly something to keep an eye on. Early season, working

143
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,399
the kinks out. Yes, we'll see we need again. Nothing

144
00:07:56,439 --> 00:07:58,920
is ever gonna be determined off of two performances or

145
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,240
four baseball games. But I do like the grit the

146
00:08:03,279 --> 00:08:07,040
Astro showed. I do love the comeback ability and it

147
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,959
does make me feel not go. We're only using a

148
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,360
ridiculously small sample size of four games, and you've got

149
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,399
a lot of help from the Angels defense on Saturday

150
00:08:15,519 --> 00:08:18,519
especially they're butchers. And look, the Angels of the lat

151
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,759
are projected to be either fourth or fifth in the

152
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:26,920
American League West. Three errors from the Angels, the baseball

153
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,240
was kind of baseballing, was it? Walker? Or who want it?

154
00:08:29,279 --> 00:08:32,480
Off of two gloves? I mean, they got a little

155
00:08:32,519 --> 00:08:34,440
help from their baseball gods and a little help from

156
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,799
the Angels too, But hey, wins are wins. Winds are

157
00:08:36,879 --> 00:08:39,200
victory wins or wins because again, you're gonna win about

158
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,159
eighty fo hopefully eighty five more of those, hopefully ish

159
00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:46,679
enough for a wild card spot rotation rounds in a

160
00:08:46,759 --> 00:08:49,200
form is carorall I got to hit?

161
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 5: Yet?

162
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: I don't know, because every time I watch a hotload,

163
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,440
he's striking out. I've been kind of more focused on

164
00:08:54,519 --> 00:08:56,279
all the things going on in Houston sports. A little

165
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,000
bit of the tournament. I haven't watched. I haven't been

166
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,639
paying attention to baseballs at large. Right, So here's the

167
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,320
agenda today. Yes, we have Astros versus Angels. We have

168
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:06,559
the Rockets winning their last two games on road trip.

169
00:09:06,639 --> 00:09:09,879
Woo beats the crap out of the Pelicans yesterday, I

170
00:09:09,919 --> 00:09:15,399
mean annihilated them Opera and shangun the three point bandit

171
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,200
five of them. Don't get confident please he started. I

172
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,320
was like, oh no, and then he's kept making him last.

173
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:21,799
Nek and them over and I think you finished with

174
00:09:21,879 --> 00:09:24,039
five or six and three something. Yes, good to see

175
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,120
Kevin Durant now play the fourth quarter. I'm always in

176
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,840
a good mood when Kevin Durant doesn't play the fourth

177
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,279
he needs to rest. Yeah, in a lot of minutes.

178
00:09:31,799 --> 00:09:34,799
The basketball game between Duke and Yukon, I don't know.

179
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,279
I mean, nationally, it's certainly a huge topic of conversation.

180
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,159
I don't I have a really distinct feeling that when

181
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,799
the Cougar's left that collectively Houston sports fans said, yeah,

182
00:09:45,799 --> 00:09:46,320
shut down.

183
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:47,279
Speaker 1: Now.

184
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,159
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this. The Iowa Illinois game on Saturday

185
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,480
looked like there was a nice crowd.

186
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 6: Now.

187
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if tickets plummeted and price and people

188
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,279
scoom up at the last second, but perhaps maybe some

189
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,279
is if you're if you are a fan of either

190
00:09:59,279 --> 00:10:01,399
one of those teams Houston and around the corner. I mean,

191
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:03,039
you're not just jump on a plane to run down

192
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,279
now to come here to play for watch a team

193
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:07,919
for the final four. So and I would say, well,

194
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,200
maybe Iowa has a big fan base. Probably not you,

195
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,080
probably not. How many what's the let me ask you,

196
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,759
we'll see you kind of lung group, a long group

197
00:10:14,759 --> 00:10:16,919
in Houston looking like yeah, if any if any of

198
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,519
you went to the Iowa Illinois game, just tell us

199
00:10:21,159 --> 00:10:23,720
maybe some Houston fans kept their tickets, couldn't find a

200
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,360
price they didn't like, and go catch a good game.

201
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,879
It's an e lead eight game. I don't think it

202
00:10:27,879 --> 00:10:29,399
doesn't happen a whole lot around here. I mean, I

203
00:10:30,039 --> 00:10:32,759
don't think we'll get a call, but it's worthy of

204
00:10:32,759 --> 00:10:34,759
at least asking. So if you went to the Iowa

205
00:10:34,759 --> 00:10:37,960
Illinois game, we'll get to that. Uh, we got the

206
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,559
the comments are back in town. Yes, that was announced

207
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,559
officially today after the rumored conversation took place over the weekend. Yes,

208
00:10:47,519 --> 00:10:49,399
and they're bringing you back as play by play voice.

209
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,279
I mean, we haven't talked about it. Make it offer

210
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:58,600
tillman negotiations can happen. That's true. Three hundred million dollars

211
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:05,919
that it feels like a ridiculously high price for a team.

212
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,679
But I remember people were like, hey, what do your

213
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:08,960
thinking of thoughts about? I'm like, well, you know what

214
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,480
if there is a segment of the population that enjoys

215
00:11:11,519 --> 00:11:13,799
that women's basketball And again, how was it Caitlin Clark

216
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,480
turns everything up a notch. Now, you shouldn't build your

217
00:11:17,519 --> 00:11:20,120
team around one player, but the NBA builds three in

218
00:11:20,159 --> 00:11:22,399
the eighties, right, you shouldn't build you league around one player.

219
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,879
But sorry, good yeah, saying you know, if Michael, Magic

220
00:11:26,919 --> 00:11:28,919
and Larry can do it, then maybe Caitlyn can do

221
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,399
it for a smaller extent. That's the hope, and here's

222
00:11:32,399 --> 00:11:34,799
the reality. It can It can go two ways, right.

223
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,519
It can be she's she's the pop and then there's

224
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,679
a fizzle, or she's the catalyst. So we'll see. All

225
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,519
I will say is this Timan doesn't make bad business deals,

226
00:11:45,639 --> 00:11:50,000
so he does not so I would think he is

227
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:57,519
buying a stock hopeing it flourishes. Yes, right, But here's

228
00:11:57,519 --> 00:11:59,600
the thing. He didn't buy the stock low. He bought

229
00:11:59,639 --> 00:12:02,120
the stock. I mean three hundred million dollars. That isn't

230
00:12:03,399 --> 00:12:07,360
it's true? Or are you getting in after the bump and

231
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,080
the crash is coming? I don't know. I don't so

232
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,759
to me, it's about he must think down the road

233
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,399
ten years from now, this thing is going to be

234
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,080
even ten times bigger than it was it is now.

235
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,080
And then ultimately he's looking to fill build knights in

236
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,519
his building too. The very good thing they have is

237
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,799
that they're grabbing a lot of young people with Caitlin Clark,

238
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,039
a lot of young girls and young people, right right,

239
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,519
So that's that's perfect for a league growth. Yeah, yeah,

240
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,879
and again. But the thing about that is not necessarily

241
00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:34,960
to fill in the building up. It's about corporate sponsorships

242
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,039
and television deals. And you know, Adam Silber, to his credit,

243
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,039
has been able to grab a lot of money for

244
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,519
TV deals, and I'm sure the WNBA, to a lesser extent,

245
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,679
it's also gaining some traction off of that. All right,

246
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,039
So we got a lot to get to today. We

247
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,240
have to tell the truth at eleven thirty this morning. Okay,

248
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,080
I've already got three of the four nine. I think

249
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,679
of one more thing. Okay, how many truths I can't

250
00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,720
tell you yet? Okay? Interesting? Now, last week you both

251
00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:02,080
got it right? Or did you get it right? And

252
00:13:02,159 --> 00:13:04,039
John got it right and Jonathan got it wrong? Okay,

253
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,159
so it's five to three. I'll keep you trick, good track.

254
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,600
Who's got five you? Okay, so it feels like it's

255
00:13:08,639 --> 00:13:13,440
more like eight to two. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding, Jonathan, Oh,

256
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,799
you had a great weekend. Seven one three two one

257
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,639
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two

258
00:13:19,919 --> 00:13:25,200
five seven ninety Are we going to use the term choke?

259
00:13:26,919 --> 00:13:30,960
Do we have parameters for it? Because if you go

260
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,240
back to the game last night, there were multiple chances

261
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,960
just by the by the left of the lack of

262
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,080
time on the clock. If Booster ROSSI holds onto the

263
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,120
ball and just takes a ten violation, there's no time

264
00:13:45,159 --> 00:13:50,360
for for uh, you come to shoot crazy Matt and

265
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,360
Ross with you on a Monday seven one three two

266
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:59,159
one two five seven ninety ten twenty two on a

267
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,480
Monday morning. Thank you for being a part of our show.

268
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,639
Astros split the series with the Halo's Astros good news,

269
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,519
drew twenty three walks, unfortunately surrendered twenty eight of them.

270
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:18,080
Oh is that bad? That's is that true? That's a

271
00:14:18,159 --> 00:14:22,399
lot of walks. No way, twenty eight in four games. Well,

272
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,639
I mean I'm looking at ctaggart's tweet now, okay, Oh,

273
00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:26,440
Brian McTaggart, he wouldn't lie.

274
00:14:27,559 --> 00:14:27,679
Speaker 7: Uh.

275
00:14:27,759 --> 00:14:30,279
Speaker 2: Yeah. The Astros have drawn drawn twenty three walks, which

276
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,360
is second most in MLB behind the Angels, who drew

277
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:37,159
twenty eight walks. But I mctigger when i'd lie. Oh,

278
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,639
it's early. It is early, all right, very early. Abs

279
00:14:42,759 --> 00:14:49,320
Astros failing grade so far? Oh my god? What? Yeah,

280
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:54,679
twenty eight walks? The Dodgers have issued five. Don't greek.

281
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,759
I'm not going to allow you to talking at Dodgers

282
00:14:57,799 --> 00:15:02,480
baseball this year except when the Astros pulled the Dodgers. Okay, Oh,

283
00:15:02,519 --> 00:15:05,720
it's just three games. At least they've only played three

284
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,200
five walks. Hey, are we gonna check on former Astros

285
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:10,960
around big leagues? Like once a week? Do you want

286
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,440
to do that as a segment? Okay? Like where are

287
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,799
they now? Like it'd be Kyle. Oh, here we go,

288
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:24,799
Tucker Yes Fromer Yes, Bregman, I mean you want to

289
00:15:24,799 --> 00:15:28,240
go Carrett cole hole and you're forgetting the greatest utility

290
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:33,039
player in Astro's history. Mauricio Maurisio Dubon. Okay, is anybody

291
00:15:33,039 --> 00:15:39,440
else that you would like to really inquire about? No,

292
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:45,159
you know what, I will give Caleb ort No, why not.

293
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:48,000
I'll give you those five and we'll do it in

294
00:15:48,039 --> 00:15:49,559
the We'll do it every Monday from here on the

295
00:15:49,559 --> 00:15:52,000
rest of the season. I'll handle that responsible. Okay. Yeah,

296
00:15:52,039 --> 00:15:55,480
I love it, and now we need to actually kind

297
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,480
of don't love it. We need a good song for it,

298
00:15:57,559 --> 00:16:01,279
like where I Will Remember You. That's pressing. That's when

299
00:16:01,279 --> 00:16:06,960
someone dies. Missing you at all? Oh, miss John Waite right,

300
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,720
missing you at all? Yeah, John Waite right, missing you

301
00:16:09,919 --> 00:16:14,519

302
00:16:14,559 --> 00:16:17,000
wait w A. I t look at Jonathans can find

303
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:21,320

00:16:36,559 --> 00:16:38,600
every Monday, and oh I just came up with a

309
00:16:38,639 --> 00:16:41,200
segment idea on the show, organically on the show. It

310
00:16:41,279 --> 00:16:43,039

316
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,440

00:17:07,519 --> 00:17:18,400
My whole life strange too. This isn't bad, It's fine.

00:18:47,079 --> 00:18:48,400
Alani and Iowa?

343
00:18:50,039 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 8: I sure did? And you forgot George Springer.

344
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 2: Oh, Joe, that's a good one. George Springer, good one, honestly. Okay,

345
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,079
I'm kind of joking, but kind of not. Hey, Sue Sanchez,

346
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,200
Sanchez ran into listen the whole segment. You're off this

347
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:08,680
whole segment, Springer. Okay, that's seven deep how's rely doing

348
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,000
in the Mexican League? No, not counting, all right? So Adrian,

349
00:19:12,079 --> 00:19:13,440
how was the crowd on Saturday?

350
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 8: It was awesome? So I went to the University of Illinois. Okay,

351
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,640
over four thousand alumni here in Houston.

352
00:19:20,799 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 2: Oh wow.

353
00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 8: And we had a pregame at.

354
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 2: Tom's watch Bar.

355
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,599
Speaker 8: We had about four hundred people and I went around

356
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,720
from table to table and talked to quite a few

357
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,920
people who flew in on Friday.

358
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 2: Oh really, okay, has dropped.

359
00:19:33,799 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 8: Everything and sick because nobody expected us to beat the Coops.

360
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,559
So they said, hell, yeah, we're we haven't been to

361
00:19:40,599 --> 00:19:43,319
the final four and twenty one years. We're going to Houston.

362
00:19:44,559 --> 00:19:47,839
Speaker 2: Outstanding. Okay, So how full was the building?

363
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 8: I'd say nine, that's really good.

364
00:19:54,559 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 2: That's that's good. Yeah, that's good because it looked lower

365
00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,559
problem like it was completely full. I just don't know

366
00:19:59,559 --> 00:20:02,359
how the upper that look. So. Uh So you you

367
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,400
said you're an Iowa alum Illinois Illinois? So are you?

368
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,000
Are you going to go to Indianapolis or you just

369
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,359
wanted to see your squad here in town.

370
00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 8: I haven't decided yet, but probably.

371
00:20:13,599 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 2: Stay here, okay, because I'll be honest with you. It's

372
00:20:16,319 --> 00:20:18,079
very expensive to get up there. And I'm sorry to

373
00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:19,880
say that because I was obviously thinking about that from

374
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,839
the University Houston to your team ruined my memories of that.

375
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,640
But uh but yeah, thank you Adrian for the update

376
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,000
on that. Good to good to see. There were so

377
00:20:27,039 --> 00:20:28,640
many people that filled the building up on site. That's

378
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,400
a good that's a good site for Houston sports team

379
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,240
and doesn't evolve a Houston sports team. Right, all right,

380
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,880
thanks guys, Thank you Adrian. Next one time, and we

381
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,759
had one. We have another person that went to the game.

382
00:20:39,039 --> 00:20:41,000
Let's go. That's how I like this. Let's go to

383
00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:45,200
Tim and Parland on seven one. Hello Tim, Hell yeah.

384
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 9: I went to the game.

385
00:20:45,759 --> 00:20:47,079
Speaker 6: Hawkeys always represent.

386
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 2: Oh see. Now it's funny because we've had two people

387
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,880
and Tim, you're the second one that had a dog

388
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,759
in the fight. Mm hmm much. I guess that's big guy.

389
00:20:55,759 --> 00:20:58,359
I never die. How How BIG's the Iowa alumni group

390
00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:58,880
of Houston.

391
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,839
Speaker 10: You know, it's pretty big. I don't know if it's

392
00:21:02,839 --> 00:21:06,000
bigger than the Illinois group, but it's big and we

393
00:21:06,079 --> 00:21:09,440
represent and the stadium what ninety percent full? Sorry, Illinois

394
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,960
people ain't too smart. They're probably about seventy five percent

395
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:13,519
if that?

396
00:21:14,599 --> 00:21:17,799
Speaker 2: Okay, So now we're getting conflicting reports.

397
00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:21,279
Speaker 10: Yeah, well get it. Get the facts from an Iowa person.

398
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,400
You know, after all those Illini people cheer I L

399
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,920
L Google.

400
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 2: That says yet.

401
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm just a little pissed.

402
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,599
Speaker 2: So yeah, I can feel the anger in your voice. Yeah,

403
00:21:34,599 --> 00:21:36,519
for sure, it was good. It was a great run, Tim,

404
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,119
Thank you Tim for the phone conflict.

405
00:21:38,559 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 10: Iowa people drink more beer though, and what.

406
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,039
Speaker 2: I uh, okay, yeah, something to be proud of. I

407
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,319
mean it is. Yeah, I don't think so. I think

408
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,880
Iowa women are a little more attractive Illinois women. I

409
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,240
can't hold you to that. I have no clue you

410
00:21:55,279 --> 00:21:58,480
have You have no clue? You mean you have no idea.

411
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,119
Why don't you google image and see what's going on? No,

412
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,519
I'm not going to google image hot Iowa Hawkeye women? John,

413
00:22:05,559 --> 00:22:08,079
how you do it? Let us know how it turned out?

414
00:22:08,519 --> 00:22:13,240
Do what google hot Iowa women? You know what? That'd

415
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,160
be a no, okay, that's fair. We'll just have to

416
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,920
Oh what about Verlander? The list? Thank you?

417
00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 6: Oh?

418
00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:22,079
Speaker 2: Will wait a minute? How long is it seven gonna be? Okay?

419
00:22:22,079 --> 00:22:24,799
You know what, if you weren't an All Star or

420
00:22:24,839 --> 00:22:27,680
didn't we got to cut off, Like, no, Hasus Santaz,

421
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,319
You're off at the list. Okay, I'm sorry, but Hasius

422
00:22:30,319 --> 00:22:32,519
Sanchez off the list. And I'm gonna take George Springer

423
00:22:32,519 --> 00:22:35,880
off list. He's been going all stop, he's been going

424
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:41,000
a while. I think that's fair. And I'm taking Garrett

425
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,559
cale off the list. I think that's fair too, one two, three,

426
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:48,079
four five. For Pete's sake, you're taking because Verlander is

427
00:22:48,079 --> 00:22:52,599
now a Tiger. I'm a former astro. Great too, Verlander,

428
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:57,119
dubon Bregman fromber Tucker, I'm coming back from Tommy John.

429
00:23:00,039 --> 00:23:01,440
Why do I want to go see him up in

430
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,240
the movies? So bad? Every time you try to do this,

431
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,440
I don't know what you're talking about. Your impersonations. You're

432
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:12,079
Garrett Coles number one. Your your cow mcnare is like

433
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,079
one fifty six. Oh okay, well that's great, Actually no

434
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:19,359
it's not. I got a strong roster. Yeah, got a

435
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,160
lot of middle ground there, all right. Seven one three, two,

436
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,279
two five, seven ninety. By the way, for those of

437
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:26,960
you worried about me with Lauren she Hotti being in Houston,

438
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,119
and I was a little worried. I was in New Orleans.

439
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,000
I ye, okay, that's more than five hundred yards. That's good,

440
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,880
which is what the court says. Do we need to

441
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,119
play the audio of the Duke Radio Network? Oh my god,

442
00:23:44,079 --> 00:23:45,799
do we have it? Oh, we can find it. It

443
00:23:45,839 --> 00:23:47,559
won't take us long to find it. You'll hear it.

444
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,400
Could It's that's rude, It's I mean, and I know

445
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,279
the guy. He's been a guest on the show That

446
00:23:55,359 --> 00:24:00,359
Hurts ten thirty two on Supports Talk seven ninety Matt

447
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,559
and Ross on a Monday. Good morning to you. It

448
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,720
is the Matt Thomas Show at Ross. We look forward

449
00:24:05,759 --> 00:24:07,519
to having you with us today. We do invite you

450
00:24:07,599 --> 00:24:09,400
to join us on the phones at seven one three

451
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,720
two one two five seven ninety seven one three two

452
00:24:11,759 --> 00:24:13,359
one two five seven NINTI. We have to tell the

453
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,960
truth coming up today at eleven thirty, and a brand

454
00:24:16,039 --> 00:24:18,759
news segment every Monday. We just organically came up with

455
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,279
ten minutes ago called missing You at one twenty, and

456
00:24:22,319 --> 00:24:25,119
we'll keep it to five players, I think, because if

457
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,559
you do something six seven eighty, it loses. It's it's

458
00:24:28,039 --> 00:24:32,599
zest for the segment. So right now it's Tucker fromber Bregman,

459
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,319
Dubon and Erlander on the missing new segment, and that

460
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,400
could obviously change as things move if players get traded,

461
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,720
which very ultimately could happen. I we didn't use use

462
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,640
Kakuchi as a missing your segment. We because it was

463
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:49,519
a short timer. Yeah, so it's it's it can interchangeable.

464
00:24:49,519 --> 00:24:54,880
Perfect good. All right? So play by play is uh

465
00:24:55,039 --> 00:24:57,640
something I love doing and I wish I was I

466
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,359
wish I had a perfect broadcast. I still tell you

467
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,279
this after doing for thirty years, I'm still looking for

468
00:25:01,319 --> 00:25:05,680
that first one. That's that's good Matt striving, always striving

469
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,119
for perfection. But I've told this to a lot of

470
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,640
people before. The minutia of the game, when you are

471
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,640
calling a basketball or baseball or football game, nobody really

472
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,359
cares if you make a mistake in theory if it's

473
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,160
four to two in the top of the fourth, or

474
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,519
if you if you make a play I misidentify a

475
00:25:24,599 --> 00:25:27,680
receiver in the second quarter of a game ten to seven, Okay,

476
00:25:28,079 --> 00:25:32,799
that's them's the breaks. There is something, especially with the

477
00:25:34,039 --> 00:25:39,279
increase in social media, you gotta nail the biggest moments,

478
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,680
whether it's a superlative, whether it's Kevin Durant going for

479
00:25:43,759 --> 00:25:47,000
number five. Whether it's a made shot, you have to

480
00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:50,480
nail it because if you don't, then nobody's going to

481
00:25:50,559 --> 00:25:56,599
say what the hell's going on now? Stage two of this. Universally,

482
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,400
Duke has hated by ninety five percent of sports fans. Yes,

483
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,000
there's five percent. There's five percent that loves them. My

484
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,359
family loves Duke basketball, all of them. All of them really,

485
00:26:10,039 --> 00:26:12,960
every single one of them. Wow, And I'm married into that.

486
00:26:13,279 --> 00:26:15,480
So the Duke I bore my children because of that,

487
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:18,960
the Duke mind virus spread in the Thomas household. My

488
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,920
oldest son's name most of you know, his name is Cameron,

489
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:27,039
named after Cameron Indoor Stadium. Yes, and your daughter's name

490
00:26:27,039 --> 00:26:30,279
is Shisky. No that's not true. No, that's not true

491
00:26:30,279 --> 00:26:34,559
at all. Point being is this. I have to really

492
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,480
navigate these murky waters because if I go too much

493
00:26:37,519 --> 00:26:40,160
into the I get why you hate Duke, then I'm

494
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,559
going to be in the back of the backyard again

495
00:26:41,599 --> 00:26:44,640
for the second stray. Yeah, make sure you take your

496
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,680
brug spray kidding, I mean a tent this time. You

497
00:26:48,759 --> 00:26:50,680
haven't had a tent this whole time. I didn't pitch

498
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:56,400
a tent yesterday. I no, okay, So you have to

499
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,039
nail the call number one, yes, and number two. You

500
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,519
can't come across as uber whiney if you are with

501
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,200
a fan base that generally speaking hates you. When the

502
00:27:07,279 --> 00:27:10,480
Yankees complain about something, we hate you, hm, when the

503
00:27:10,559 --> 00:27:13,319
Knicks complain about something, we hate you, notre Dame, we

504
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,960
hate you. There's a variety of things, okay. So unfortunately

505
00:27:17,039 --> 00:27:20,200
the Duke Radio Network did not adhere to these things.

506
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,319
I want you to evaluate the call, okay, and then

507
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,559
I want you to evaluate the post call. Here is

508
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,799
the last few moments of the Duke Yukon game where

509
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:35,480
the younger the younger, the Boozer twin It's Kaden gives

510
00:27:35,559 --> 00:27:38,400
up the ball, Yukon makes a shot to win the game.

511
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,559
And here's the call on the Duke Radio Network.

512
00:27:40,839 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 7: Hit it in they do for Boozer, bobbled it back

513
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,519
for Star needs to get rid of it.

514
00:27:44,519 --> 00:27:46,039
Speaker 2: Does for Caiden seven.

515
00:27:45,799 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 7: Seconds trying to throw it ahead, deflected, stolen by Connecticut.

516
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 2: Two seconds It's Molin's up top for the win. Oh

517
00:27:51,839 --> 00:27:54,039
hit it, but three tenths.

518
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,599
Speaker 7: Of a second ago cal Kai Smith ran off the bench.

519
00:27:58,039 --> 00:28:01,039
That should be a technical, but with three tents in

520
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,519
a second ago, Connecticut has the least seventy three to

521
00:28:03,559 --> 00:28:12,640
seventy two. As Connecticut got the three from Mullins after

522
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,279
the turnover from Cadan Boozer.

523
00:28:19,279 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 2: Hmm. I would have probably called him more dramatic on

524
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:28,160
the three pointer because that end my season. Yeah, and

525
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,440
even though you're the duke announcer, you can still have

526
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,920
the raw emotion. Ye're like, oh, yeah, you gotta, you gotta,

527
00:28:34,039 --> 00:28:37,480
you gotta belt that one out, like when uh, the

528
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:43,240
last Rocket loss that end of the season was the

529
00:28:43,759 --> 00:28:48,240
three pointer by Damian Lillard, and I think Craig poured

530
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,400
a soul into that, going, oh my god, the season

531
00:28:50,559 --> 00:28:53,480
ending on that shot. I can do that. Even though

532
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,279
I'm obviously pro Rocket and want the Rockets to succeed,

533
00:28:56,359 --> 00:28:58,519
I'm not gonna EMBELLI. Oh, that was a great jam

534
00:28:58,599 --> 00:29:00,680
by Lebron James. I mean, you still have to call

535
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,599
the shot and your raw motions are going to come

536
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,960
into play on that. What made it worse? And this

537
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,039
is where again you just you use this as an

538
00:29:09,079 --> 00:29:11,240
example and I'm sure and the Duke announcers again front

539
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:12,559
of the show had been on with this before. A

540
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,319
nice guy really really nice guy. Actually he went to

541
00:29:16,359 --> 00:29:23,400
the technical foul card. Not only did he go to it,

542
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,920
but he was wrong because the guy he said that

543
00:29:26,039 --> 00:29:28,240
was not on the that was not supposed to being

544
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,359
the floor, was actually checked in and was legal on

545
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,000
the floor Malchi Smith. So not only did he go

546
00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:36,200
to the tee the technical card, he was wrong about

547
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:41,960
who the player he was identifying, but he also basically

548
00:29:42,039 --> 00:29:45,279
social media ross destroys him because Duke is a losing

549
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,799
there's happiness there and then you have the Duke announcer

550
00:29:48,839 --> 00:29:50,960
wanting about a technical foul that was never going to

551
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,759
be called, that should have never been called to begin

552
00:29:52,839 --> 00:29:55,279
with because the player was on the floor. I do

553
00:29:55,359 --> 00:29:57,880
sympathize because not only it wasn't just that shot, It

554
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,359
wasn't like a back and forth knockdown. Was a collapsed

555
00:30:01,519 --> 00:30:05,640
Yeah it was. You had to watch that house burned down.

556
00:30:07,559 --> 00:30:11,920
I've been there and then the house collapsed. So I

557
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:16,599
feel bad, but yeah, he he should be better well

558
00:30:17,759 --> 00:30:20,200
to social media. If I'm man, if I'm calling Houston

559
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:25,400
Cougar basketball the National Championship game, I'm not going, oh

560
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:30,599
my gosh, Emmanuel Sharp just double dribbled or can't can't

561
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,799
grab the ball. I would have I would have lost

562
00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:39,839
my mind because that's what people do. Yeah, you're not

563
00:30:40,359 --> 00:30:42,799
play guy. But if I say if, but if you

564
00:30:42,839 --> 00:30:45,519
put the headset on and they I said, ross, describe

565
00:30:45,559 --> 00:30:47,480
what happened to Manuel Sharp in the last ten seconds

566
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,279
of the game of Florida. You would have described it as,

567
00:30:49,559 --> 00:30:52,640
oh my god, I can't believe that he pump faked

568
00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:54,880
and left and left his feet and then to get

569
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,720
rid of me. You you would have sold. You would

570
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,960
have been like, oh my, that's what I'm saying. You.

571
00:30:59,839 --> 00:31:02,880
You you have to do a channel emotion. You have

572
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,599
to Yeah, you have. That was an emotional moment. You

573
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,720
have to channel and let it. You can't you you

574
00:31:08,759 --> 00:31:11,160
have to throttle it. You can't go full all emotion.

575
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,759
But you it has to be a part of the

576
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:17,519
call because that was an emotional part that you can't

577
00:31:17,519 --> 00:31:20,519
get any more emotional if you're a Duke fan than

578
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:26,920
watching those last ten seconds. So you know again, just uh,

579
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,799
you know. Look, you don't want to be you don't

580
00:31:28,799 --> 00:31:30,640
want to support the other team when you're working for

581
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,640
the one team. But you have to also acknowledge either

582
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,759
greatness or futility on the most incredible play and then

583
00:31:39,119 --> 00:31:43,119
something as minute as guys leaving the court, and then

584
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,119
it was the wrong I just like, I just I

585
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,920
honestly want to crawl in the hole the guy die

586
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,920
with him because I know he's he wants he's killing himself,

587
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:53,920
he wants to kill and look, there will be moments

588
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,319
in my life that I want to call back. There's

589
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,960
Monny calls in my life. I want back just is.

590
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,240
We have play by play, guys go through that. But

591
00:32:00,359 --> 00:32:03,240
just the past can only haunt you if you let it. Matt,

592
00:32:05,119 --> 00:32:06,680
I felt like I'd do a show with the therapist.

593
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,319
I'm trying to help. I mean, why don't you you

594
00:32:09,319 --> 00:32:10,920
know what you have? You can why don't you go

595
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,279
to night school? Go I'm thinking about it. Actually, I

596
00:32:14,319 --> 00:32:16,119
don't think it'd be a terrible idea in your part. Oh,

597
00:32:16,119 --> 00:32:19,480
what I got rockets tomorrow. I might be picking up

598
00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:22,720
astros tonight. I have rockets on Wednesday, and then I

599
00:32:22,759 --> 00:32:27,680
have astros on actually rockets on Friday. Okay, maybe maybe

600
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,079
in the fall, I'm gonna do six am class. I

601
00:32:31,119 --> 00:32:33,400
get it at six am every day. That's a lie.

602
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:38,119
Ten forty five Sports Talk seven ninety Abs Oh and

603
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,039
Dan wants me to pick up Saturday, so I'll have

604
00:32:40,039 --> 00:32:49,200
four games this week. Abs c B. Buckner, you may

605
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,720
want to retire ten forty six, Sports Talk seven ninety

606
00:32:52,759 --> 00:32:59,559
seven one three two one two five seven ninety So

607
00:32:59,599 --> 00:33:04,000
c B. D. Buckner is him and Last Diaz are

608
00:33:04,039 --> 00:33:07,240
now the two worst umpires in Major League Baseball. You

609
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,720
could make it a trio when Angel Hernandez was umpiring.

610
00:33:10,559 --> 00:33:12,240
You're saying, Matt, how do you know those guys' names?

611
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,759
Everybody that follows baseball knows those cats' names. They've just

612
00:33:15,839 --> 00:33:17,680
been the three worst guys for a better part of

613
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,680
a decade, and once you get in the club, you

614
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,160
can't get out of it. Sorry, you just can't. It

615
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,400
doesn't make any sense. They routinely considered the worst umpires.

616
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,279
The players hate them, the managers hate them, the metrics

617
00:33:30,279 --> 00:33:33,119
hate them. There's nobody that says, man, I got C. B.

618
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:38,559
Buckner behind the plane. I'm feeling good about today. Correct,

619
00:33:38,599 --> 00:33:43,480
he had six overturned calls in one game. Wow, I

620
00:33:43,519 --> 00:33:45,440
wonder what the record's gonna end up being. It'll be

621
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,160
fun to find out we got six within the first week. Oh,

622
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:57,799
there'll be somebody can get double digits. You can't be

623
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,759
in Major League umpire if you're missing that many calls

624
00:34:02,039 --> 00:34:04,160
and having them overturned. And I think about that, that's

625
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,119
just the number of overturn calls. How many times did

626
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,639
he miss a call that they just said, Oh, I

627
00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:15,119
just can't I can't take that chance. Yeah. I went

628
00:34:15,159 --> 00:34:17,599
to umscorecards to find the worst from last year. The

629
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:20,480
absolute worst was somebody named Andy Fletcher. Okay, but then

630
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,280
it's last DS and C. B. Buckner literally next next up.

631
00:34:23,559 --> 00:34:25,400
So I'm messaying, I guess Andy Fletcher isn't nearly as

632
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,079
cocky as those two guys are. Maybe not, because those

633
00:34:28,079 --> 00:34:31,239
are Those two guys are khaki and they're terrible. Can't

634
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,639
be both pick a lane? Okay. So I have watched

635
00:34:34,679 --> 00:34:40,000
a small sample size of games this year.

636
00:34:40,079 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 3: Okay.

637
00:34:41,119 --> 00:34:44,039
Speaker 2: I watched just about all of the Astros game yesterday,

638
00:34:44,079 --> 00:34:46,119
watched some of the game on Saturday and Thursday, and Friday.

639
00:34:46,159 --> 00:34:48,800
I was with Rockets and Travelings. I didn't see much.

640
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,119
And I know you've been looking for this ABS thing.

641
00:34:52,119 --> 00:34:54,119
And again, granted we're only talking about four games, an

642
00:34:54,119 --> 00:34:58,960
incredibly small sample size. I don't see how you're gonna

643
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,840
do it every pitch. I just don't I really think

644
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,920
from a logistical standpoint, why I think you're gonna get

645
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,159
because think about it, it's pretty quick, but it needs to

646
00:35:10,199 --> 00:35:13,519
get even faster. It needs to fluid. I don't think

647
00:35:13,519 --> 00:35:15,239
it's fast. I'm just I'm saying I don't think it's

648
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,320
fast enough. No, it's instant. This whole thing that we wait,

649
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,239
that's for dramatic. So T Mobile gets their plug. Oh

650
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,559
is that the case? Yeah, I didn't even know that. Yeah,

651
00:35:24,599 --> 00:35:27,800
it's instant. They can have a little buzzer on them.

652
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,920
That's gonna bring an instant hmmm. Okay, well then forget

653
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:36,719
what I just said. Okay, because I really didn't know that. Okay,

654
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,559
you gotta you gotta get the graphic up there. We're

655
00:35:39,559 --> 00:35:41,360
gonna make a whole show out of this, and then

656
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,559
we're gonna make it like it's a cool challenge thing.

657
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:48,400
And then here's T Mobile's plug. Maybe that's the reason

658
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,000
why we're never gonna get I know it's very easily

659
00:35:51,039 --> 00:35:53,920
because it's pretty sexy. People will enjoy it. Well, if

660
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,280
you're forcing everyone to use it on because no matter

661
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,480
what right, everybody has, every local broadcasts were watching. It's

662
00:36:01,519 --> 00:36:04,559
brought to you by T mobile. You'd have to have

663
00:36:04,639 --> 00:36:06,519
the if they use a strike box, it's brought to

664
00:36:06,519 --> 00:36:07,880
you by T Mobile. I don't know, but yeah, it's

665
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,719
it's avenue for for for revenue. Smart on Baseball's part,

666
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,960
not playing. I mean they sponsored the element. I mean,

667
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,199
I didn't say they were great and they're the best.

668
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,079
You'd say thing at all about them. Well, in my experience,

669
00:36:22,119 --> 00:36:24,119
they're not great. So hey, there you go. That's a

670
00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:28,440
good balance right there. Okay, Well then I thought they

671
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,360
were looking. They were just they were not instantly doing it.

672
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,559
So maybe no, I'm still gonna Okay, yeah, I gotta

673
00:36:35,679 --> 00:36:37,360
I gotta stand that. I don't think it'll be the

674
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:43,039
gateway drug eventually. I'm not saying. I don't know. So

675
00:36:43,119 --> 00:36:44,679
let me put it this way. If it's going, if

676
00:36:44,679 --> 00:36:47,760
it's working so beautifully now, then what would hold them

677
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,440
back from just saying, all right, if it's working now

678
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,840
at a game, both teams are out of challenges and

679
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,239
horrible calls are getting made. Happened now to ve late

680
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,280
in the game, they were out of challenges and horrible

681
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,760
calls are getting made. It'll continue to happen in a

682
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,719
pile up in big moments, and then the tide will

683
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:06,880
turn eventually, the the grains of sand will eventually fall

684
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,760
over to my end. But it will take time. I'm

685
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:15,079
until scales. I think we need to make a grandiose

686
00:37:15,119 --> 00:37:19,360
bet about this. Okay, I bet five years ago you

687
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,960
would have said there wouldn't be a challenge system. I mean,

688
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,039
it's it's just things change and it will take time.

689
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,679
I would like to, uh make a bet. Let's make

690
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,480
the bet. I get this in perpetuity. Yeah, So I'm saying,

691
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,239
how long are we gonna go on this? I don't

692
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,679
know because I I've already I'm gonna pay off on

693
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,800
the Joe Mixon gun bet, although I still believe it

694
00:37:39,039 --> 00:37:41,519
Joel Mixing gun Johann Alvarez is on pace to pay

695
00:37:41,639 --> 00:37:44,360
play one hundred and sixty two games. Yes, yes, he's

696
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:50,000
doing well. You're you're one of that pace game I'm

697
00:37:50,039 --> 00:37:52,239
going to pay for Okay, wait year, we know in

698
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:56,920
twenty twenty six, you're gonna need You're gonna need the

699
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:01,119
younger generation. Younger generation. It's gonna take time because sometimes

700
00:38:01,159 --> 00:38:03,639
things take things are generational. Like we talked about with

701
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,679
the players. The older players are all love the human

702
00:38:06,679 --> 00:38:08,440
element because that's what they're used to. The younger players

703
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,960
are all more on board with this ABS and stuff

704
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,960
because they dealt with it in Triple A. Now that

705
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,719
it's gone away in Triple A, you're gonna have fewer

706
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,159
players who have dealt with the full ABS because they're

707
00:38:17,199 --> 00:38:19,760
not tinkering with that at all. Right at Triple A?

708
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,440
Are they just going full challenge? You're going full challenge.

709
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,000
I'm gonna say, here's here's the bet all and you're

710
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,079
gonna get odds on this all expense paid trip, no

711
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,760
stop to Las Vegas. You're ridiculous. I don't like Las Vegas. Okay,

712
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,320
all expense paid trip to Phoenix. I've never been to Phoenix.

713
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:36,880
Will then that'd be a great trip for you. Then

714
00:38:37,079 --> 00:38:42,039
by twenty thirty, No, No, twenty thirty is four years.

715
00:38:43,559 --> 00:38:45,920
I say, you're you're saying it's never ever ever gonna

716
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,599
happen in our lives, and I'm saying, I don't know

717
00:38:48,639 --> 00:38:51,000
when it's gonna be, but I think it'll happen eventually. Okay,

718
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,920
all right, so no bet. Then I'll call you in

719
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:59,679
the home. Yeah, when I'm retired in the Jupiter Retirement Castle,

720
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,119
you go to Florida. Why do you think no, I'm retiring.

721
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,800
That's a great question. Am I retired? Probably on the

722
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:12,400
the Florida panandles Why not Galston? Eh? Well, Matto, I

723
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,840
love Dalliston number one, I do. I like that. I

724
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:20,000
like Galazon a lot beautiful. But I'm I think we're

725
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,320
gonna go to probably the Florida Panhandle will be my

726
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:26,800
guess Panhandle. Yeah, and like like a Rosemary Beach if

727
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,719
you will, Okay, big money you afford that. No, that's so,

728
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,119
I gotta keep working. My floral one k isn't a blanker,

729
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:34,960
by the way, I mean, I don't want to look

730
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,320
at it anymore. It's fine, No, it's not fine. Better

731
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:49,360
bounce back. The Matt Thomas Show with Ross eleven two

It's Starnay today. Excuse me, it's Nieze. It's at one twenty.

745
00:40:24,639 --> 00:40:28,519
It's called Missing You. It's five former Astro players and

746
00:40:28,519 --> 00:40:31,599
how they're doing. I've done research on one. I've got

747
00:40:31,639 --> 00:40:34,639
four more to go. You'll be pleased with one of

748
00:40:34,679 --> 00:40:39,039
the results already for one Astro missing Okay, so we

749
00:40:39,119 --> 00:40:42,559
can change it around. We recording, yes, okay, I'll make

750
00:40:42,599 --> 00:40:47,639
sure so ROSSI uh. Thursday and Friday were disappointments, big

751
00:40:47,679 --> 00:40:50,679
crowds all weekend, frankly, but you know Opening Day, the

752
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,480
bunting and the pomp and circumstance, American flag, and the

753
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,360
Astros didn't score, running only in three hits, more problems

754
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,559
Friday with the runners in scoring position, and then Saturday

755
00:40:59,559 --> 00:41:02,639
and Sunday a couple of comeback victories. Do you know

756
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,039
how encouraging it is for me to be an Astros

757
00:41:06,039 --> 00:41:08,440
fan to know that my team can get behind in

758
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:13,639
a game significantly, or can surrender a leader then get

759
00:41:13,639 --> 00:41:16,920
it right back. My glass is more than half full,

760
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,199
despite the fact it was just the Angels, despite the

761
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,800
fact the Astros and not gets great starting pitching, a

762
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,920
lot of clutchingting, and I need a lot of that

763
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,239
in twenty twenty six. Yeah, I think that's a good

764
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,719
way to look at it because of as you mentioned,

765
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,239
the offense is one of our big worries. It was

766
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,480
just the Angels, but they're still a baseball team. You

767
00:41:33,559 --> 00:41:36,360
lost the first two. You have a pitching staff right now,

768
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,000
the starting pitching staff where the ERA is over seven,

769
00:41:39,079 --> 00:41:43,480
but I expect that to get better. It's the start

770
00:41:43,519 --> 00:41:46,360
of the season. If the hitting can sustain, and again

771
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,440
we're just one weekend in, but this is all we

772
00:41:48,519 --> 00:41:50,960
have to go on right now. So if the starting

773
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,119
pitching Hunter Brown's gonna round in a form, you might

774
00:41:53,119 --> 00:41:55,119
can be more accurate as well. And the other guys

775
00:41:55,119 --> 00:41:58,800
who got starts, I feel like that can settle and

776
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,639
if you can still be good, especially right now the

777
00:42:01,679 --> 00:42:05,000
way that the roster is constructed. Jordon Alvarez staying healthy.

778
00:42:05,039 --> 00:42:07,239
We talked about that start of the season. He was

779
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,920
productive this weekend. I'm feeling overall encouraged about where we

780
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,360
thought this team was gonna be. Between eighty five eighty

781
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,079
nine ish wins and fighting for a wildcard spot this weekend.

782
00:42:20,119 --> 00:42:22,559
Didn't do anything to deter me from that. No, I

783
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:25,639
did not want to go buy playoff tickets after the

784
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,719
victory yesterday. Now did I want to have everybody fired

785
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,159
and never go to a game again. Just a couple

786
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,360
of Randall thoughts from it, first and foremost. Joey lo

787
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:40,880
Berfido nice start, yes, number two, Joa Spotta moving the

788
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,679
puzzle pieces around every single day. Yeah, you got a

789
00:42:45,679 --> 00:42:49,239
couple of Jordon Alvarez in left field. Perette is playing

790
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:54,199
second base, yes, which I like. Well, good for him,

791
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,960
because the thought was, okay, third base, you could live

792
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:04,920
with first base. He's done before second base, you really

793
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,199
think you're gonna put a guy out there. I hadn't

794
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,159
done much of that, and he held his own well,

795
00:43:08,159 --> 00:43:10,079
he hasn't done much of that. But again, I know

796
00:43:10,159 --> 00:43:13,280
we don't like to say bad things about the number

797
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,400
twenty seven. You say a word about it, but he

798
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,840
can't be worse. That's just the fact of the matter

799
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,039
of this stage's career. He's turning thirty six in May.

800
00:43:20,079 --> 00:43:24,199
That's it, just is what E's oparatus cannot be worse

801
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,639
defensively than Jose al Tuova. Both of them not very rangy,

802
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,679
but they gets the balls that are hit to them,

803
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:33,400
So that's fine with me. I'm good with it. I'm

804
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,639
actually we'll see how much long term we get yord

805
00:43:36,679 --> 00:43:38,400
On in left field. But the fact that he was

806
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,320
out there a couple of times. Of course, it's at

807
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,079
dyke In Park, so there's the shorter porch. He did

808
00:43:43,159 --> 00:43:45,960
have that one ball that he jumped for and it

809
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,440
hit up against the wall. But he's okay, It's all good.

810
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:53,599
Don't worry about I don't need gold glove. I know competent, No,

811
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,559
and he's always been competent. Absolutely. Jake Myers mixing in

812
00:43:57,639 --> 00:44:02,760
and out, Jeremy Payna not playing consecutive games, and that's

813
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,880
probably just just to keep an eye on that finger,

814
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:06,920
to make sure there's no swelling or anything like that. Yeah,

815
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,000
it was almost like a preview weekend. I'll be curious

816
00:44:09,039 --> 00:44:11,400
once Jeremy Payne. We had Brian McTaggart on last week.

817
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,440
He said, probably about a week or so into the season,

818
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,360
it'll be starting the he needs to be out there

819
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,559
every day. He's your best defensive shortstop and last year

820
00:44:18,599 --> 00:44:21,280
he led of your regular hitters. I believe he led

821
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,159
the team in ops. Yeah, so he needs to be

822
00:44:23,199 --> 00:44:25,360
out there all right. So what I did like again

823
00:44:25,679 --> 00:44:28,599
was clutch hitting. What I did like is that you

824
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,000
can score some runs when you're starting. Pitching needs some help,

825
00:44:32,039 --> 00:44:35,039
and clearly they needed to help, especially on Saturday and Sunday.

826
00:44:35,639 --> 00:44:37,599
That's going to regress back to the norm of what

827
00:44:37,639 --> 00:44:40,880
I think the certain rotation is going to be. The bullpen.

828
00:44:41,199 --> 00:44:43,480
We're the Astros are gonna flat out miss Josh Hater.

829
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,320
They just are. And it sounds like to me that's

830
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:52,320
gonna be later rather than sooner. H Remember when it happened.

831
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,639
Originally I said waking up when he plays it was

832
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,920
I think there, Well, I guess we could play find

833
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,559
that Hater update, but I think it was the looking

834
00:45:00,599 --> 00:45:04,480
for live batters come mid mid month of April. Yeah,

835
00:45:05,199 --> 00:45:07,480
I would think at the very earliest he's in May

836
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:08,440
first start.

837
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:09,119
Speaker 11: Uh.

838
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 2: The aubradial velocity. I don't normally worry about that a lot,

839
00:45:14,519 --> 00:45:16,760
but if it's down three miles an hour in just

840
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:20,840
the second performance of his season, my guess is Joe's

841
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,840
gonna have to probably treat him with king gloves for

842
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,119
a while and Joe talked about it. Brian King, let

843
00:45:26,159 --> 00:45:27,679
me tell you something. You may he may be the

844
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,679
saltiest mineral reliever the askers may have this year left

845
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,480
handed and the ability to get people. I like Brian King,

846
00:45:34,559 --> 00:45:36,679
but I don't want to say, hey, ninth Inning, who's

847
00:45:36,679 --> 00:45:38,679
coming in to shut him down? Brian King? Let's go?

848
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:40,519
Could you get you better off a plan b though,

849
00:45:40,599 --> 00:45:42,400
if a braid is going to have to worry about

850
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:48,320
velocity to be planned, c that point something to keep

851
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,679
an eye on. But overall, again, do you want a

852
00:45:51,679 --> 00:45:53,840
winning weekend? Yes? Do you want to beat up on

853
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:56,480
the lowly angels who are probably gonna finish fourth or fifth?

854
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,400
Reality is baseball works crazy ways. You're not gonna win

855
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,880
every series you're supposed to win, and you're gonna have to, uh,

856
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,280
you know, hold your on. And the reality is it's

857
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:09,199
four games of a season and we're not gonna do

858
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,800
We're not gonna make any massive like if they had

859
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,199
gone four to oh, we're not starting a World Series parade.

860
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:15,800
And if they're gone all in four, we're not asking

861
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:17,840
ready to be fired except Astros should probably would have

862
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,559
done that. Yeah, I'm just looking at Brian Brady was

863
00:46:20,639 --> 00:46:24,719
throwing mostly fastballs, some as low as ninety one point

864
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:29,599
seven miles an hour. He didn't even get over ninety five.

865
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,280
And he was hitting around or sitting around ninety three

866
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,920
ninety four against Mike Trout, who he he walked and

867
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:40,159
then was pulled for Brian King. So something to keep

868
00:46:40,159 --> 00:46:44,559
it on it just is yes, not ideal, no, uh,

869
00:46:44,599 --> 00:46:46,960
And you're just gonna have to probably give him some

870
00:46:47,039 --> 00:46:50,519
off days more than you would. I mean back to back.

871
00:46:50,559 --> 00:46:52,119
Probably ain't gonna be in the plan for a while.

872
00:46:52,199 --> 00:46:55,239
You know what great pitching, starting pitching and great offense

873
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,559
that means less. Brian A braid. What the reality is,

874
00:46:57,559 --> 00:46:59,360
You're gonna have to get deeper into games. Who was

875
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,400
starting pitching and he might is going to have to

876
00:47:01,599 --> 00:47:03,920
really just kind of soak into everything that he saw

877
00:47:04,039 --> 00:47:06,679
yesterday where he never got into good rhythm. And I

878
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,360
expect him in five or six days to get back

879
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:10,199
in that rule. He talked about being nervous. He talked

880
00:47:10,199 --> 00:47:12,880
about mixing more of his secondary pitches rather than just

881
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:18,480
the slider. Yeah, so we'll see they're worried about his fastball.

882
00:47:19,039 --> 00:47:20,920
Sliders supposed to be his best pitch. That was the

883
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,039
sole air home run was off his slider. I throw strikes.

884
00:47:23,079 --> 00:47:25,679
That's number one thing. Well, that's exactly huge pitch count

885
00:47:25,679 --> 00:47:27,360
in the first inning of the game yesterday. In fact,

886
00:47:27,679 --> 00:47:30,519
I think it was twenty five you know on pace, guy,

887
00:47:30,519 --> 00:47:32,440
I did not like that. I'm not a good on

888
00:47:32,519 --> 00:47:35,679
pace No. Seven one three two one two five seven

889
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:40,199
ninety seven one three two one two five seven nine zero.

890
00:47:41,119 --> 00:47:43,960
We'll also get into some early thoughts about the ebs

891
00:47:46,159 --> 00:47:49,039
in yesterday. Obviously there's a marketing tool chip to that,

892
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,679
but there was like if you if you were to

893
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:59,360
watch the volume meter when a play is challenged, there's

894
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,199
it's like it rises the crowd, it kind of gets

895
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:05,960
juice for it a little bit, and it's strange because

896
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,440
it's just a It's almost like do you want the

897
00:48:08,519 --> 00:48:13,840
umpire to look bad? Or does the empire want to go? Gotcha? Yeah?

898
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,079
Do we have a percentage from the first weekend? I

899
00:48:16,159 --> 00:48:18,519
bet we do, yes, and we can find it. But

900
00:48:18,559 --> 00:48:21,280
I mean, let me tell you, there are metrics everything.

901
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,400
Every challenge by a hitter will be discussed, every challenge

902
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,599
by a catcher will be discussed, and every challenge by

903
00:48:27,639 --> 00:48:32,280
a pitcher will be discussed. Yeah, I'm trying to find

904
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,920
it looks like the A's are the best in I'm sorry, yeah,

905
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:37,960
spring training fifty two percent. Don't listen to me. I

906
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,519
won't listen to sorry. Seven one three two one two

907
00:48:40,559 --> 00:48:42,159
five seven nine if you want to chime in on

908
00:48:42,159 --> 00:48:45,880
the conversation seven one three two one two five seven

909
00:48:46,119 --> 00:48:48,280
nine zero. Other things that get to the Rockets were

910
00:48:48,639 --> 00:48:51,639
awesome yesterday in New Orleans beat the crap out of

911
00:48:51,679 --> 00:48:54,559
the Pelicans by thirty two points. Rockets have a big

912
00:48:54,599 --> 00:48:57,320
week coming up. They are right now in a mathematical

913
00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,519
tie with the Wolves for the fifth spot in the West.

914
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,039
Minnesota has the tiebreaker right now because of conference record,

915
00:49:04,159 --> 00:49:07,000
but the Rockets and the Wolves play one more time

916
00:49:07,039 --> 00:49:10,199
in Houston in two weeks to close out the second

917
00:49:10,199 --> 00:49:12,039
to last game of the regular season, so that will

918
00:49:12,039 --> 00:49:14,880
be a huge game on that outbring Shingun was awesome,

919
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:16,920
Kevin Duranton up by the fourth quarter, and the Rockets

920
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,320
blew out the Pels to finish up their Midwest road

921
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:23,760
trip at two and two College basketball, I have your

922
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,039
overall success rate, please, fifty three point seven percent. First

923
00:49:27,039 --> 00:49:33,440
Weekend Challenge success as in umpires are losing the players

924
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,480
are winning fifty three point seven percent of the time.

925
00:49:35,639 --> 00:49:39,599
I think the Empires would take that get if it

926
00:49:39,599 --> 00:49:41,320
gets If it gets higher, that's going to make the

927
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:45,400
umpires look really bad. You could the umpires. Let me

928
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:46,719
tell you, if I go the umpires and send an

929
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:50,440
email out at MLB dot com, if they're saying that

930
00:49:50,519 --> 00:49:53,239
fifty four percent, they can live with that. And by

931
00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:54,519
the way, I don't want to say one more thing

932
00:49:54,559 --> 00:49:58,199
about this challenge thing. Okay, even with CB Buckner, because

933
00:49:58,199 --> 00:49:59,880
I watched the video of all the calls that were

934
00:50:00,119 --> 00:50:06,800
overturn there's there're micro inches here, yes, a lot of them.

935
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:14,519
I mean, it's it's not professional in uh negligits. It's

936
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,519
very very very cool. What if we had a machine

937
00:50:17,519 --> 00:50:21,519
that could get everyone right? Hmmm. Hitters forty two point

938
00:50:21,559 --> 00:50:27,679
three percent correct, catchers sixty four point one percent correct,

939
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,159
pictures just two for five. If I was a major

940
00:50:30,199 --> 00:50:32,599
league manager, I'll just tell my catchers it's on you.

941
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,840
And I agree with Joe, I would under Zero's acceptance

942
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,920
to allow pictures to do it well. The catchers go

943
00:50:39,079 --> 00:50:45,880
out pacing the hitters obviously balances the scales towards there's

944
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:49,159
more advantage on their side. On the pitching side. Mm hm,

945
00:50:49,159 --> 00:50:52,599
oh it would be yeah. So that's interesting. But the ego,

946
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,000
especially as you have you don't have an ego behind

947
00:50:55,039 --> 00:50:56,360
the dish. You have an ego at the play. You

948
00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:57,840
don't want be called out or you don't want you

949
00:50:57,840 --> 00:50:59,239
know what I'm saying, you don't want to you don't

950
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:00,920
want to be strike three call, like there was some

951
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,159
infatist strike three calls that were turning in the ball.

952
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,119
You know what that That is actually a great point

953
00:51:05,119 --> 00:51:08,159
from Thank you, Matt. Pre catcher is least the catcher's invested,

954
00:51:08,679 --> 00:51:10,840
but in terms of the hitter and the pitcher, they're

955
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,280
way more invested because is their individual numbers. It's a

956
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,519
hit to your own ego if you're wrong, that's right. Hmm,

957
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,119
Thank you very much. A stude point, Matthew. That's why

00:52:38,599 --> 00:52:40,159
I'm going to speak out a turn on this. You

980
00:52:40,199 --> 00:52:47,800
better not a friend of the show. Pete Mayock. Oh yeah, okay,

981
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:51,119
we can talk about Pete. I think so. Uh. So

982
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:56,000
Pete is brothers with Mike Mayock, the former Raider general manager,

983
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,360
and he's been on television for a long time. Yes,

984
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:04,199
so uh. He sends me a DM like super late

985
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:09,840
Saturday Night, okay, And I was like, what is it,

986
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,679
I wonder where everything was. Okay, Well, he says, hey,

987
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:15,480
I just want to let you know. I was at

988
00:53:15,559 --> 00:53:19,519
the Space Cowboys game last week and a couple of

989
00:53:19,559 --> 00:53:21,960
fans or a couple of people, maybe it was just

990
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,079
one came up to me and said, hey, Matt was

991
00:53:25,119 --> 00:53:30,199
talking about Jack's Biggers and how guys that with the

992
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:35,960
name Jack's come across his douchebags. Yes, Pete's step son

993
00:53:36,159 --> 00:53:43,559
is Jax Biggers. Oh okay, now, so Pete says, hes

994
00:53:43,559 --> 00:53:46,840
gonna kick your ass. No, he was like, Jax doesn't

995
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,480
mind you saying that we both found it funny, No problem,

996
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:52,320
And I said there and I saw I send a

997
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,679
reply back. I said, thanks Pete for listening and or

998
00:53:55,039 --> 00:53:58,599
telling the story. I said, it's not Jack's maybe the

999
00:53:58,599 --> 00:54:02,639
Salt of the Earth guy, but reality TV Jacks is

1000
00:54:02,639 --> 00:54:07,280
a douchebag. Yeah, reality TV. That's the show about being

1001
00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:11,239
under at the on the boat, that's the uh summer house,

1002
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:15,960
that's the real help whatever. Anybody that named Jacks on

1003
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,960
those reality shows like the vander Pump Rules, they're douchebags.

1004
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:22,360
I'll take your word for it. Like Jack's who I

1005
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:26,719
don't know, stay with me on this Okay, there are

1006
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:32,280
two douchey names in reality television, Jacks, Jax Taylor and Brody.

1007
00:54:33,039 --> 00:54:36,679
Anybody's named Brody douche? I just put in Google Jacks.

1008
00:54:37,199 --> 00:54:39,000
Oh wait a minute, there's a Jax tailor and the

1009
00:54:39,079 --> 00:54:41,199
vander Pumper Rules. You nailed it. How many how many

1010
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,159
vander Pump Rules do you watch? I don't watch any

1011
00:54:43,199 --> 00:54:45,760
of it, but I know it's on our DVR, and

1012
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,480
I'm down to like eleven percent of my on my

1013
00:54:47,639 --> 00:54:52,000
on my DVR at the house. Okay, so shout out

1014
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:56,119
Jax Biggers. Could not be a nicer guy. Apparently he

1015
00:54:56,119 --> 00:54:58,679
thinks you're a douchebag. But I mean, Pete didn't have

1016
00:54:58,719 --> 00:54:59,880
to send that to me. But it was just a

1017
00:55:00,119 --> 00:55:03,920
a funny little still, it's prety funny. So yeah, we

1018
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,639
are water cooler talk for some people, Yes, water cooler fuel.

1019
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:09,960
We are, Well, you think it would be water. But

1020
00:55:10,119 --> 00:55:12,400
I think, and I think he understood. I wasn't not

1021
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,440
attacking Jack because I've never met Jack Biggers. It looks

1022
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,679
like a great kid. Yeah, he'll break you in half.

1023
00:55:17,159 --> 00:55:18,880
You don't know that. How big is JAXX? We'll see

1024
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,760
how big? Does it matter? He's a professional athlete. So

1025
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:27,159
you're saying every professional athlete he's he's five nine seventy five.

1026
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:31,840
He'll break you in half. I'm six one five. What's

1027
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,880
his bat speed? He oh, better than mine? For sure,

1028
00:55:35,039 --> 00:55:38,599
he'll break you, unless it's like a professional like maybe Cupstacker.

1029
00:55:38,679 --> 00:55:40,519
So let me tell you right now, I am actually

1030
00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,480
rooting for Jax Biggers. Now, okay, because we've got a

1031
00:55:43,519 --> 00:55:44,719
friend of a friend of a front of the show.

1032
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,000
So good, okay, good, all right, then you just want

1033
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,519
to pass it alone to you? Where are we going

1034
00:55:49,519 --> 00:55:51,079
with this? I don't know. I don't. I just want

1035
00:55:51,079 --> 00:55:52,920
to I just forgot to print Prinson that to you,

1036
00:55:53,039 --> 00:55:57,280
so thank you. Just again. We we don't. There's only

1037
00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,360
a few people we don't like, Jeff Passing being one

1038
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,440
of them. I don't mind Jeff Passing. Oh he was

1039
00:56:02,519 --> 00:56:05,280
all over my for you tab this weekend. You know,

1040
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:09,519
I'm a reporter, and we really respanked each other. And

1041
00:56:09,559 --> 00:56:11,800
who's he talking? Who's he talking about? People were asking

1042
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:16,559
him about do him and the Rosenthals and they the

1043
00:56:16,599 --> 00:56:18,840
other beat reporters that are like the big breaker of

1044
00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:20,719
news stories that they get along with each other, and

1045
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:24,360
like we respanked each other and I just it depends

1046
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,239
if they're good dudes or not. I mean aause eating

1047
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:30,280
another thing on Twitter by the way, we were talking

1048
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:31,960
about how what a cess pool it is. Yes, but

1049
00:56:32,039 --> 00:56:34,119
we still use it, so we're I want to get off,

1050
00:56:34,159 --> 00:56:35,880
We're part of it. We're part of the sas. I

1051
00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,480
want off the train. But because I have this job

1052
00:56:38,519 --> 00:56:40,079
and I need to be on top of sports news,

1053
00:56:40,119 --> 00:56:42,280
I'm on the train. Yeah, and I'll be the same way.

1054
00:56:44,039 --> 00:56:47,519
We're seeing a lot of media fighting media. Have you

1055
00:56:47,599 --> 00:56:51,639
noticed that? Maybe you haven't, but I I would say

1056
00:56:51,639 --> 00:56:55,159
in general some Yeah, wlock, NFL dot Com, Saman's Marline

1057
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,079
and one of the guys from Fantasy Points is your website.

1058
00:56:59,119 --> 00:57:04,320
I follow Grass Scott Barrett or something. They were going

1059
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:08,519
at it. It was getting vicious, like Jason Whitlock and

1060
00:57:08,519 --> 00:57:12,599
Steven A. Smith are fighting, Cam Newton's fighting with everybody

1061
00:57:13,559 --> 00:57:16,840
who's the guy Ryan Clark is fighting. I'm like, do

1062
00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:20,119
you guys realize in the big picture of life, Like

1063
00:57:20,199 --> 00:57:21,880
I could have beef with a lot of media, which

1064
00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:23,400
I do, but I don't put it on the out there.

1065
00:57:23,559 --> 00:57:24,679
I don't have a lot of beef. I just have

1066
00:57:24,719 --> 00:57:27,280
some with some people. But I don't, but I don't

1067
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:31,039
bring it out just you're not gonna like everybody. But man,

1068
00:57:31,159 --> 00:57:35,880
it's gotten so full of timeline. And are you team Whitlock,

1069
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,800
Are you team stephen A or are you team Ryan Clark?

1070
00:57:39,239 --> 00:57:44,880
Like guys you analyze professional sports, you ain't rein eventing

1071
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,920
the wheeling. You ain't caring cancer. You're not helping my

1072
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:50,719
four oh one kgro It's a thing of everyone taking

1073
00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:53,760
themselves too seriously in general. God, do you understand that

1074
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,599
the one of the blessings of you and I working

1075
00:57:55,639 --> 00:57:58,079
together for all these years is we do not, under

1076
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:03,599
any circumstance take ourselves here seriously that much. I take

1077
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,880
my profession very seriously. I take the time that it

1078
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,960
takes to make this, hopefully the show enjoyable seriously. I

1079
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:14,039
take my play career very seriously. But just general us

1080
00:58:14,079 --> 00:58:18,320
just talking here in sports. Yeah, again, we ain't caring cancer.

1081
00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:20,440
I don't even know what the biggest on air fight

1082
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:23,880
we got on too is about. Besides Stevie Wonder, Stevie

1083
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:29,239
Wonder still is there and you're wrong. But anyways, no,

1084
00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:33,039
I don't know. I mean, we disagree. Have we ever

1085
00:58:33,079 --> 00:58:35,400
had a beef with anybody at another station here in

1086
00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:38,519
the marketplace. I don't I don't think I have. I

1087
00:58:38,519 --> 00:58:40,440
don't even know. There's some people I don't respect, but

1088
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:41,960
that's a different issue for it every time. I mean,

1089
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:44,840
I don't, I don't listen to the other stations. I

1090
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:46,480
don't even know who's on. You're probably in a good

1091
00:58:46,519 --> 00:58:48,639
spot then, but I hate listen. So it is what

1092
00:58:48,679 --> 00:58:50,679
it is. I have faults. I mean, I have an idea,

1093
00:58:50,719 --> 00:58:53,159
but I don't really know. I got you. There's a

1094
00:58:53,199 --> 00:58:56,760
lot of shifting, especially remember places, stay right where we are.

1095
00:58:56,800 --> 00:59:01,920
We're grounded, Matt ross this table as long as we can. Yes,

1096
00:59:02,039 --> 00:59:04,719
count your blessings. Okay, I have come up with my

1097
00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:07,599
four to tell the truth. Count your roth Ira. I

1098
00:59:07,599 --> 00:59:09,840
don't want to count that right now. Okay, yeah, maybe

1099
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:14,840
next week seven one three, two, one two five seven

1100
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:19,800
ninety seven one three two one two five seven nine zero.

1101
00:59:20,119 --> 00:59:21,800
All right, we have to tell the truth coming up,

1102
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:24,440
and I have let me see what I did. I

1103
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:26,880
have three truths and one lie. Do you like that

1104
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:28,400
or do you like the lie? Is Is it what

1105
00:59:28,559 --> 00:59:30,079
way I've always asked you this? Is it easier to

1106
00:59:30,119 --> 00:59:32,079
tell my truth or is easier to figure out my lie?

1107
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:36,719
I think it's it's more difficult when you do three

1108
00:59:36,719 --> 00:59:39,679
truths in one lie. Okay, so I have three three

1109
00:59:39,719 --> 00:59:47,119
truths and one line. Okay, these are four opinion I did.

1110
00:59:47,239 --> 00:59:49,679
And by the way, everybody calls everybody baby there yeah,

1111
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:53,679
manab I love it. I love it. But if you're

1112
00:59:53,719 --> 00:59:57,760
a single guy and you haven't had loving in a

1113
00:59:57,760 --> 00:59:59,960
while and a girl calls you baby, you think it's

1114
01:00:00,119 --> 01:00:02,719
like the next step in your relationship development. Okay, well

1115
01:00:02,719 --> 01:00:04,920
it's the problem. Oh whoa, I got confidence? Now this

1116
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:08,239
is horrible. Yeah, that's good. If you're twenty three years

1117
01:00:08,239 --> 01:00:10,480
old and the and the pit boss is calling you

1118
01:00:10,599 --> 01:00:13,519
baby and she's thirty eight and hading love in a while,

1119
01:00:13,559 --> 01:00:15,840
you're like, do I slipper my number? And why not?

1120
01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:17,840
What's the worst could happen?

1121
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:17,880
Speaker 12: You?

1122
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:22,639
Speaker 2: Ever hooked up with a pit boss? No? No, you're

1123
01:00:22,679 --> 01:00:27,639
also not twenty three or a dealer, not anymore. That's

1124
01:00:27,679 --> 01:00:31,920
my hamstring. It's not good. Yeah, stretch those hammies out,

1125
01:00:32,199 --> 01:00:35,239
I know, Jonathan. How's the prize vault? Are we?

1126
01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:35,519
Speaker 9: Are?

1127
01:00:35,519 --> 01:00:38,719
Speaker 2: We robust with a prize vault this week? Robust it's

1128
01:00:38,719 --> 01:00:40,039
a good word. And you're like that way I do?

1129
01:00:42,079 --> 01:00:44,000
Let me see let me see, let me see, because

1130
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:45,559
you always use a word that kind of fits but

1131
01:00:45,639 --> 01:00:46,239
kind of doesn't.

1132
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:50,519
Speaker 13: Oh, we got some music festival tickets, how long musical fest?

1133
01:00:50,519 --> 01:00:52,360
And then we got a pair of tickets to see

1134
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:53,559
Dave Matthews band.

1135
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:57,039
Speaker 2: Just one pair, that's all they gave us. Now, now,

1136
01:00:57,079 --> 01:00:58,920

Woodlands Pavilion as.

1170
01:03:04,159 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 2: Well favorite Dave Matthew song, Jonathan, Okay, here we go, gentlemen,

1171
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:17,599
three truce one line. Take number one. Dan Hurley is

1172
01:03:17,639 --> 01:03:26,800
an outstanding basketball coach. He's just a massive tool. I

1173
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:33,039
cannot root harder against Dan Hurley. What's the take? That's

1174
01:03:33,039 --> 01:03:35,280
the take? Okay, I just I don't like him. I

1175
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:39,000
don't like his boorishness. I don't like his attacking of officials.

1176
01:03:39,039 --> 01:03:42,239
I don't like his being rooted people. Okay, this is

1177
01:03:42,239 --> 01:03:46,119
the Yukon coach, Yukon coach. Okay, then you go forehead

1178
01:03:46,159 --> 01:03:50,599
to forehead with Afial. Yes he did, and he yells

1179
01:03:50,639 --> 01:03:53,280
at them all the time. That's take number one. Okay,

1180
01:03:53,719 --> 01:04:00,440
number two, So the shot was made by Yukon. Yes,

1181
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:04,719
and Doke have to go full court to win the game. Okay.

1182
01:04:05,119 --> 01:04:07,400
In the NBA, when you call a timeout, you can

1183
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:11,920
advance to front court. I think college basketball should adapt

1184
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:14,639
the NBA rule you can advance the ball into front

1185
01:04:14,679 --> 01:04:19,360
court after a timeout, giving teams one small glimmer of

1186
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,880
hope for another buzzer bee. Literally the only way reason

1187
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:26,639
that rule was instituted, right, correct, I think college should

1188
01:04:26,639 --> 01:04:31,320
adapt that for the from the NBA. Okay, all right, gentlemen,

1189
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:40,119
Take number three. NFL is currently hiring replacement officials, and

1190
01:04:40,159 --> 01:04:42,400
as part of the labor negotiations, they're going to try

1191
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:47,920
to make the current NFL officials full time. In my opinion,

1192
01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:51,280
I do not care if they're full time officials. I

1193
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,320
think making him full time is not going to make

1194
01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:56,239
them better. The best way you can get officials to

1195
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:58,280
get better is to grab them at a younger age

1196
01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:00,599
with not as many years in the business, so you're

1197
01:05:00,639 --> 01:05:02,920
not grabbing guys at fifty two that are fishing their

1198
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:06,960
first NFL game. Do whatever you can to get officials

1199
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,039
at twenty one, twenty two to twenty three and get

1200
01:05:09,039 --> 01:05:10,840
them ready by the time they're twenty eight twenty nine,

1201
01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:15,239
so they get a longer, zestier, more successful NFL career.

1202
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:19,119
I think making full time is a bargaining chip or

1203
01:05:19,159 --> 01:05:22,480
a demand is a waste of time, because again, what

1204
01:05:22,519 --> 01:05:23,960
are they gonna do with this time of year? Just

1205
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:26,199
watch game film over and over and over again. It

1206
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:30,079
seems stupid. I don't know. Yeah, and number four, I

1207
01:05:30,119 --> 01:05:34,280
had a really wonderful, relaxing weekend in New Orleans. Took naps,

1208
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:36,559
went for walks, to a little gambling, it'd some good

1209
01:05:36,599 --> 01:05:39,920
Cajun food, and I actually put some football on this weekend.

1210
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:45,440
I cannot believe I'm telling you this. I watched some

1211
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,679
of the Gamblers run a game game. It wasn't nearly

1212
01:05:48,719 --> 01:05:51,599
as bad as I thought. Okay, I wouldn't say I

1213
01:05:51,639 --> 01:05:54,719
was fully vested, but at least there were some offense

1214
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:57,519
that made me think. I never know if a game

1215
01:05:57,639 --> 01:06:00,599
is on on a Saturday, a rando watch some of it.

1216
01:06:01,159 --> 01:06:04,119
I actually enjoyed. And I can't believe I'm saying this.

1217
01:06:04,519 --> 01:06:07,119
I actually enjoyed some of the rambler the Gamblers versus

1218
01:06:07,159 --> 01:06:09,599
Rene game game because again, Kevin someone was coaching. I

1219
01:06:09,639 --> 01:06:11,280
wanted to see how he was doing. Okay, it was

1220
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:15,880
Houston's team wasn't terrible. Those are my four takes. Which

1221
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:20,159
one of the four do I not believe. Number one,

1222
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,960
Dan Hurley is a great coach, but a complete d

1223
01:06:23,079 --> 01:06:26,920
bag and tool. Number two I think college hoops should

1224
01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,840
adapt the NBA advanced in the front court after a timeout.

1225
01:06:30,599 --> 01:06:33,639
Number three making NFL officials full time, in my opinion,

1226
01:06:33,679 --> 01:06:37,480
will not will not make them better. And number four

1227
01:06:37,719 --> 01:06:40,440
Gambler's run a game wasn't terrible, better than I thought

1228
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:43,239
it was gonna be. I had zero expectations. I now

1229
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:46,800
have minimal expectations. Okay, one lie one of those four

1230
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:48,199
is a lot? Which one of the four am I

1231
01:06:48,239 --> 01:06:51,920
lying about? All right, Jonathan, how are we feeling? Number

1232
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:53,920
One's easy to dismiss to me, one of four, I'm

1233
01:06:53,960 --> 01:07:00,199
dismissing Dan. Dan Hurley is a massive tool and way up,

1234
01:07:00,199 --> 01:07:01,800
way too. Seriously, why would he make that one?

1235
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 7: Why?

1236
01:07:02,079 --> 01:07:04,039
Speaker 2: But you know what, Dan Hurley, this guy going nose

1237
01:07:04,119 --> 01:07:07,119
to nose with officials after games. He's a sweet kid.

1238
01:07:07,519 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 13: And why would Matt ever come on air and admit

1239
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,719
he actually at the gamblers with James and Klin listening

1240
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:14,159
if he didn't actually believe it.

1241
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 2: Well, that's why I think he doesn't believe it. I

1242
01:07:19,039 --> 01:07:24,880
don't know. Two. I could see going either way. I

1243
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:27,360
could see the argument for both sides, like, hey, it's

1244
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:31,800
college basketball, it should be it should stay the way

1245
01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:36,000
it is too. I'm honestly on the fence. Three. I

1246
01:07:36,039 --> 01:07:38,440
agree with Matt, and I think he believes that because

1247
01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:40,000
I think he said this in the last couple of

1248
01:07:40,039 --> 01:07:45,679
weeks that NFL officials full time or he was talking

1249
01:07:45,679 --> 01:07:47,840
about some other officials being full time, and it didn't help.

1250
01:07:50,559 --> 01:07:52,519
So I'm down to two and four, which I'm on

1251
01:07:52,559 --> 01:07:55,480
the fence, but I just don't believe he was enjoyed

1252
01:07:55,519 --> 01:07:58,280
because well you know, I'm not gonna say why. I'll

1253
01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:00,320
give my reason afterwards because there's contests. So if there

1254
01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:03,639
weren't contestants, I would reveal my what I why I believe.

1255
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:05,400
But I could be wrong. I'm gonna go with four.

1256
01:08:05,599 --> 01:08:08,480
I'm gonna go with two. Okay, all right, let's see

1257
01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:11,079
what the audience has to say. All right, you heard

1258
01:08:11,079 --> 01:08:14,599
the four takes I online one like which one of

1259
01:08:14,639 --> 01:08:16,279
those fours I lying about?

1260
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:24,880
Speaker 4: Oh man, I'm gonna say, uh, take number one.

1261
01:08:26,319 --> 01:08:28,359
Speaker 2: You think I think you think I think that Dan

1262
01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:29,680
Hurley is not a douchebag?

1263
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:34,520
Speaker 4: Yes, okay, I think you like him?

1264
01:08:35,119 --> 01:08:38,479
Speaker 2: You think I like him? Okay, So hey's number one

1265
01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:40,319
and hang up. I just go ahead and go by

1266
01:08:40,359 --> 01:08:42,680
your day, Corey. On seven ninety, which one of those

1267
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:44,560
four am I lying about?

1268
01:08:45,039 --> 01:08:45,359
Speaker 1: Matt?

1269
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:51,159
Speaker 14: Come on, there's zero percent chance that fancy Matt sitting

1270
01:08:51,199 --> 01:08:54,279
in a five star hotel with winches feeding him grapes

1271
01:08:54,319 --> 01:08:57,159
one at a time, waiting for his duck col C

1272
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:03,800
is sitting and watching some Loser by Product football game.

1273
01:09:04,239 --> 01:09:06,159
Speaker 11: Number four is absolutely a lie.

1274
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:10,399
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you, Corey, Ike, by the way, hung

1275
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:15,680
up right, I was kidding. Sorry, call back if you're right, Kyle.

1276
01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:17,479
Which one of those four am I lying about? As

1277
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,039
soon as I said that, I was like, that was stupid.

1278
01:09:20,119 --> 01:09:20,880
I'm sorry.

1279
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:23,800
Speaker 15: I'm going to have to go with number two. I

1280
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,640
think you're knowing you a little bit. I think you're

1281
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,399
a big fan of the college integrity and keeping the

1282
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,359
sport different, keeping the way it is. So I'm gonna

1283
01:09:32,359 --> 01:09:33,239
go number two.

1284
01:09:33,319 --> 01:09:35,439
Speaker 2: Very logically thought out. Thank you Kyle very much. He

1285
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:38,039
has number two. Let's go two more here, Brian on

1286
01:09:38,079 --> 01:09:39,720
seven ninety Brian, which one of those four am I

1287
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,319
lying about?

1288
01:09:44,159 --> 01:09:45,239
Speaker 3: It's either two or four.

1289
01:09:45,319 --> 01:09:48,680
Speaker 12: I'm on the fence, but I'm gonna go with number four.

1290
01:09:49,119 --> 01:09:52,079
Speaker 2: Okay, number four. You think that I did not enjoy

1291
01:09:52,119 --> 01:09:55,680
the gambler's running gag game. Remember I said zero expectation.

1292
01:09:56,239 --> 01:09:59,800
Now I have minimal and last one belongs to Scott

1293
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:01,680
on seven ninety Scott, which one of those form I

1294
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:03,399
lying about?

1295
01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:06,319
Speaker 3: I'm also going to go with the college game number two?

1296
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:11,880
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you very much. Uh so you so it

1297
01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:14,239
came down to you guys saying to what was your Jonathan?

1298
01:10:14,279 --> 01:10:16,520
Which one do you think too? All right. Number one,

1299
01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:20,840
Dan Hurley is a complete douchebag. I totally believe that. Okay,

1300
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:22,279
I'm glad I told I like to hang up. Yeah,

1301
01:10:22,279 --> 01:10:27,119
I was like ninety nine called back number two. Making

1302
01:10:27,319 --> 01:10:29,439
NFL officials full time is not going to make anything.

1303
01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:31,359
It's any better. It's just not now that they're gonna

1304
01:10:31,359 --> 01:10:33,000
be staring at film forty hours a week, but it's

1305
01:10:33,159 --> 01:10:36,039
one day a week job. Yeah, I'm sorry, that's you

1306
01:10:36,079 --> 01:10:39,279
go get younger, you go get these college guys out

1307
01:10:39,319 --> 01:10:42,760
of there faster. To me making them full time, it

1308
01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,800
just feels like that's just I mean, you're telling me

1309
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:47,720
they can't be accountants during the week and then still

1310
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:54,960
study up. No, no, no, ridiculous. I watched some of

1311
01:10:55,039 --> 01:10:59,880
the Gamblers Versus Renning gag game on Saturday afternoon. Yeah,

1312
01:11:00,159 --> 01:11:02,920
it absolutely sucked. It was worse than I thought it

1313
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:07,079
was going to be. Okay, this is the piece of information.

1314
01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:10,119
I looked at the box score. It was thirty six

1315
01:11:10,159 --> 01:11:13,279
to seventeen. I'm like, there's no way Matt thought that

1316
01:11:13,319 --> 01:11:18,079
this was so crazy. It was awful. It was terrible.

1317
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:25,840
I completely lie about that, completely, completely lie, Jonathan. You

1318
01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:28,520
know how I feel about the ufl it no longer

1319
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,039
it is. You know what shocked me? I didn't say

1320
01:11:31,079 --> 01:11:33,039
anything possible. I'll give you another tip. Jonathan watched that

1321
01:11:33,199 --> 01:11:35,960
he couldn't keep a straight didn't want to say this.

1322
01:11:36,039 --> 01:11:38,279
I was trying to keep that. I'm glad I saw it.

1323
01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:43,279
I couldn't look, couldn't keep a straight from face saying it,

1324
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:46,640
and normally, Matt, your poker face is not know it's decent.

1325
01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:48,720
During this, I'm going to start turning away from you

1326
01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:51,239
from now on because that I couldn't. I couldn't keep

1327
01:11:51,239 --> 01:11:53,159
a straight face during He checked the tape. You can

1328
01:11:53,279 --> 01:11:56,319
hear me laughing. I didn't want to blow it because

1329
01:11:56,359 --> 01:11:59,600
we had contestants and I want to be Jonathan. Yeah,

1330
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,880
but I have a competitive advantage being in here. I

1331
01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:05,399
can live with college basketball not giving in advance. But

1332
01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:07,279
I think if you want to add just even one

1333
01:12:07,319 --> 01:12:10,439
more little better, it would make it even better. So

1334
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:12,960
I would I would not be opposed to college basketball

1335
01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:16,319
advance in front court. Why not? Rather than asking why,

1336
01:12:16,359 --> 01:12:18,840
I ask why not? Because how many times can you

1337
01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:22,199
go think about this? Last night? Point three? That is

1338
01:12:22,239 --> 01:12:26,079
a sixty foot pass, forty five fifty foot pass. Then

1339
01:12:26,079 --> 01:12:27,600
it's a catch and shoot. You just don't there's not

1340
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:30,079
enough time. Volleyball bump it in, yeah, basically, which I've

1341
01:12:30,079 --> 01:12:33,159
been advocating for the old volleyball bump. Yeah. And there

1342
01:12:33,199 --> 01:12:35,159
was a team did it earlier this year. I can't

1343
01:12:35,159 --> 01:12:39,560
remember who it was against the Rockets. I think you

1344
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:41,960
know what, I think you may be right? All right,

1345
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:45,880
So congratulations to Brian and to Corey. They know me

1346
01:12:46,119 --> 01:12:50,199
when I don't tell you the truth and you But again,

1347
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:52,359
what I should have done is I should have probably

1348
01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:54,279
I should have turned the lights off in the room

1349
01:12:54,319 --> 01:12:56,920
because I was like, I was like chuckling. I was

1350
01:12:56,439 --> 01:13:01,520
saying sure, but no, I don't have to be sure

1351
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:04,479
like home. So really quick they played this, I don't

1352
01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:06,960
know they played in like I want to say, they

1353
01:13:07,039 --> 01:13:10,800
played in a small Uh does Nissan Stadium sound like? No,

1354
01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:13,399
that's a Naissan. Where do the Renegades play? Can you

1355
01:13:13,439 --> 01:13:16,039
look at up really really quick? It's a small one

1356
01:13:16,239 --> 01:13:20,680
half of the stadium one and a half. Ross was no, no, no, no, no.

1357
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:23,199
Dallas Renegade is different. So that's Arena. Sorry, hold on

1358
01:13:23,239 --> 01:13:26,000
what is where are they from? It's the Dallas Renegades. Yeah, oh,

1359
01:13:26,079 --> 01:13:28,680
chuck taw Stadium which is that's the uh. Isn't that

1360
01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:30,640
the old old ball ball market. I thought they were

1361
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,760
at somewhere smaller. One half of the stadium was completely

1362
01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:37,039
draped off and Fox because I did watch the game

1363
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:40,840
some of it. At least they were never showing crowd shots.

1364
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:47,239
There might have been two thousand people there. I will

1365
01:13:47,279 --> 01:13:50,000
say one of the all time amazing horrible takes in

1366
01:13:50,039 --> 01:13:51,479
my life. And this is not going back. In the

1367
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:54,920
last five years. I really thought for a while that

1368
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,399
we could, that we would be able to live with

1369
01:13:57,439 --> 01:14:00,199
spring football and enjoy it. We don't like it. It's

1370
01:14:00,239 --> 01:14:01,760
just the product. And we have so much else going

1371
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:03,840
We have so much else's going on. We have March Madness,

1372
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:06,439
we've got golf, we've got the NBA, we've got baseball.

1373
01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:10,680
And the number one thing ROSSI is the product's terrible. Yes,

1374
01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:16,920
receivers can't catch passes, quarterbacks under it's just not good. Yeah,

1375
01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:19,439
think about how bad it is watching Garrett Stidham. The

1376
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:23,880
quarterbacks are all worse than him. That's fair. Front of

1377
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:26,960
the show, Bill Bill's Usten, Good morning to you.

1378
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:27,159
Speaker 3: Bill.

1379
01:14:27,199 --> 01:14:31,279
Speaker 2: In the Woodlands, women in college basketball get to advance

1380
01:14:31,319 --> 01:14:33,800
into front court. Finally, a time out.

1381
01:14:34,079 --> 01:14:34,199
Speaker 3: Now.

1382
01:14:34,199 --> 01:14:36,279
Speaker 2: I've not called a women's basketball game in a long time,

1383
01:14:36,319 --> 01:14:39,119
so I did not know that. So there you go.

1384
01:14:39,359 --> 01:14:42,479
So they're doing it. What's good for the ladies mine,

1385
01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:46,079
that's good for the fellos. What's good for the goose

1386
01:14:46,159 --> 01:14:50,680
is good for the gander too. Yeah, so women can

1387
01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:55,039
do it, So men should do it, all right? News

1388
01:14:55,079 --> 01:14:56,920
and nude coming up in ten minut's what us today's

1389
01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,359
edition to believe or not? Oh? You know what, let's

1390
01:14:59,359 --> 01:15:04,600
do the Hurley fan family Roderie Munos of the Hurley family. Yeah, no,

1391
01:15:04,720 --> 01:15:09,199
I'm good. He's such a douche. By the way, who

1392
01:15:09,279 --> 01:15:10,479
the hell are we going to root for in the

1393
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,479
final four? Are we even gonna care? Are we even

1394
01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:17,399
gonna watch? Houston? Television ratings are gonna be epically low

1395
01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:19,680
for the final four? You know? How do they monitor

1396
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:22,239
like the top forty markets? And my brackets are all

1397
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:28,000
I have no chance brackets. So Duke and my best ones. Boy,

1398
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:30,920
I would like to say, I'm not surprised that Kevin

1399
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:34,720
Sampton's coming back. Kevin took up the fire in the belly.

1400
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:37,560
Oh you announced it? Yeah, basically he had announced it.

1401
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:40,159
I think he either late Saturday or early yesterday because

1402
01:15:40,199 --> 01:15:41,800
because all the kids are asking are you coming back

1403
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:45,640
or not. I think even if he'd won, he loves coaching.

1404
01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:47,479
I think he will first. I loves coaching, and the

1405
01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:51,720
money is really good, money, very good, really really good.

1406
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,359
He loves coaching. He got a great support staff. I mean,

1407
01:15:54,399 --> 01:15:56,279
he's got his family around him. I mean they do

1408
01:15:56,319 --> 01:15:58,520
the lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to recruiting.

1409
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:03,600
I mean, those young guys almost reads transfer portal. It's

1410
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:05,640
got to cut the chick. Yeah, how we thought Dusty

1411
01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:07,479
Baker was gonna ride off on the sunset in twenty two.

1412
01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:09,319
He's like, well, if I win one, I want to

1413
01:16:09,319 --> 01:16:10,800
win two. You know what, you know what it may

1414
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:13,239
be and this isn't life in general. It maybe just

1415
01:16:13,239 --> 01:16:17,520
be harder retiring period. Well, I think if you rise

1416
01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,119
to the heights of what Calvin Sampson had, I mean,

1417
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:24,239
in the Dusty Baker examples, he lives baseball. Baseball is

1418
01:16:24,239 --> 01:16:26,960
his life. Kelvin Samson, Coaching has been his life. He

1419
01:16:27,119 --> 01:16:29,000
loves it and he had to get away from it

1420
01:16:29,039 --> 01:16:30,159
for a litt while at least, you know, as a

1421
01:16:30,199 --> 01:16:33,600
head coach. And I think that's something that he I mean,

1422
01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:35,359
I'm guessing I'm not. I don't really know him that

1423
01:16:35,399 --> 01:16:39,279
well or anything, but he just seems so passionate. And

1424
01:16:39,279 --> 01:16:41,199
that's why he's so a lot of times, you're so

1425
01:16:41,279 --> 01:16:43,600
good at something because you're so passionate about it, because

1426
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,680
it is your life. And that's why he's a great coat.

1427
01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:48,720
And I also think it keeps you occupied, Yeah, keeps

1428
01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:51,600
you young. And I think people when they retire worry

1429
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:54,960
about you know, what do I do to stay active? Yeah?

1430
01:16:55,239 --> 01:16:58,119
My grandma's eighty three. She still works. She loves going

1431
01:16:58,119 --> 01:17:02,479
to work, keeps her young, keeps her a Just think

1432
01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:05,560
you and me together another thirty years, all right, It

1433
01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:10,000
puts it forty six years together. Really like an old

1434
01:17:10,039 --> 01:17:14,159
married couple may look at the job markets. James on

1435
01:17:14,359 --> 01:17:16,840
seven ninety at eleven fifty four, James, how the hell

1436
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:17,159
are you?

1437
01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:21,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not doing very well. I don't like Charlos comments.

1438
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:23,079
There's eight teams in the league and he was lucky

1439
01:17:23,159 --> 01:17:23,920
enough to get one of them.

1440
01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:26,840
Speaker 2: Were not lucky enough. Nobody cares the football, nobody cares,

1441
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:30,640
nobody's watching, nobody's going against. It's absolutely horrible. It's it's

1442
01:17:30,720 --> 01:17:33,359
nobody's going to the game. You'll be the only one there.

1443
01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:36,439
Speaker 4: No, Ludcras is gonna be there too. Ludcros is a

1444
01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:39,279
halftime show Ludacris. So they're trying to make this thing work,

1445
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:40,039
really and.

1446
01:17:40,039 --> 01:17:43,520
Speaker 2: They're gonna fail. What's your favorite Ludacris song, James, I

1447
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:43,920
don't like.

1448
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,439
Speaker 4: I don't know any Lucas song. It's okay, I'm going

1449
01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:50,199
for the game. But nevertheless, if you watch the second half,

1450
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:53,840
Deckers wasn't that bad. They were horrible in the first half,

1451
01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:55,640
I'll give you that, but Deckers actually came around look

1452
01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:57,000
pretty good as a backup quarterback.

1453
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:00,640
Speaker 2: So you're going to the backup quarterback can week one

1454
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,199
of the season? How is that going to play off

1455
01:18:02,199 --> 01:18:02,640

had no clue they even brought like old front of

1464
01:18:25,119 --> 01:18:27,399

Speaker 2: That's fine.

1468
01:18:30,319 --> 01:18:33,359
Speaker 4: I mean after the show, you need to sit down

1469
01:18:33,399 --> 01:18:35,119
and figure out when you're gonna have gamblers game day.

1470
01:18:35,119 --> 01:18:38,359
Speaker 2: So that's never gonna happen, zero chance. No one cares.

1471
01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:40,520
Speaker 4: All right, well I try, you did try.

01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:44,800
Speaker 3: All right?

1475
01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,560
Speaker 2: Oh wow, they had Longhorned legend Kyle Loxley on the squad.

1476
01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:51,760
He was not good at you t he went to utip.

1477
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:55,439
Do you kicked him to the curb? Huh? I didn't

1478
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:58,399
kick him anywhere. Wish him the best. And now he's

1479
01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:03,720
on the gamblers. You know we could do you know,

1480
01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:07,159
we'll get you or not. No us UFL player or not.

1481
01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:09,680
I like this there it is there if you want

1482
01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:11,720
to get working on it right now. It's in less

1483
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:15,880
than two hours. Okay, So just you should do. You

1484
01:19:16,159 --> 01:19:18,560
should get some actually people that are recognizable names you

1485
01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:23,439
sound made up. No, there's nobody that's recognizable. Oh to

1486
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,800
his brothers, and the is a gambler. Tua talk about

1487
01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:30,920
his brother Taulia. Where did he play? Did he moved

1488
01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:34,000
to a bunch of colleges didn't. He moved around the question.

1489
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:39,680
M hmm, Jonathan, I think you should play for the Gambers.

1490
01:19:40,399 --> 01:19:42,680
Speaker 13: Yeah, I already gotta messed up a c on. I'm

1491
01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:44,560
it's gonna be over with. They have nothing to lose

1492
01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:47,840
in that league. It wouldn't it be fun to have

1493
01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:51,840
no is a gambler? You could you just put the uniform?

1494
01:19:52,119 --> 01:19:53,880
I mean because they always try. You know that Karl

1495
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:56,800
Lewision was drafted by the Cowboys. There's a Christopher Allen

1496
01:19:56,800 --> 01:19:59,399
from Matton Rouge. The only thing I got your second cousin,

1497
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:01,000
and I'm gonna get lit up. That's all I got.

1498
01:20:01,079 --> 01:20:03,720
What do you got return? That's only the field poe return.

1499
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:06,439
I kick off return, and I gave you two times.

1500
01:20:06,159 --> 01:20:10,239
Speaker 2: When you when you get tackled, would your bones crack

1501
01:20:10,359 --> 01:20:12,239
immediately or would you wait to get the signs before

1502
01:20:12,279 --> 01:20:15,520
falling over and pain? Oh no, I went for the sighlines. Yeah.

1503
01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:17,439
Speaker 13: You know, once I got trust on bad in middle school,

1504
01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:18,840
I I saw I was white and I had to

1505
01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:19,359
walk it off.

1506
01:20:19,880 --> 01:20:22,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's called a concussion. You know you lived with

1507
01:20:22,239 --> 01:20:23,359
it all right.

1508
01:20:25,359 --> 01:20:29,159
Speaker 1: It's the Matt Thomas Show with Ross.

1509
01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:34,600
Speaker 2: It might seem crazy and what a both.

1510
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:47,960
Speaker 16: Say scored Houston, New Orleans happiness truth because whoa, everybody

1511
01:20:48,079 --> 01:20:50,079
is happy.

1512
01:20:51,279 --> 01:20:52,800
Speaker 2: Three and one be better than two and two.

1513
01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:54,039
Speaker 1: But take it.

1514
01:20:54,119 --> 01:20:59,319
Speaker 2: You can get for one team or both both both.

1515
01:21:02,920 --> 01:21:05,199
So I was doing some research on Justin Verlander. He's

1516
01:21:05,239 --> 01:21:07,039
yet to throw for the Tigers yet. Okay, so that'll

1517
01:21:07,079 --> 01:21:08,600
be a very easy part of the Missing You at

1518
01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:11,560
one twenty. Okay, do you see their uniforms? Those the

1519
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:15,960
new uniforms. They have black uniforms, orange with the word

1520
01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:19,760
Detroit across the front. They are sick. Oh you like them?

1521
01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:27,960
I love them me. By the way, I met Millmad

1522
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:30,039
at the Astros. They didn't wear the blue uniforms on

1523
01:21:30,079 --> 01:21:33,159
Sundays like they normally do. I wonder if emails against

1524
01:21:33,199 --> 01:21:36,439
them could be because usually the pictures get to choose

1525
01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:41,119
the uniform from the Fridays are always the orange. They

1526
01:21:41,119 --> 01:21:45,720
had the City Connects on Monday. Mm hmmm, and then

1527
01:21:46,199 --> 01:21:48,039
uh yeah, and then they didn't. They didn't wear the

1528
01:21:48,039 --> 01:21:51,920
blues yesterday. That blue uniform is my favorite. That's you know,

1529
01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:54,920
the spring training tops they wear. But yeah Fromber used

1530
01:21:54,920 --> 01:21:58,000
to always wear them. Uh So I'm just about done

1531
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:01,720
with Missing you at one twenty today. Okay, can't wait. Umm,

1532
01:22:03,159 --> 01:22:05,600
you're not going to be surprised at most of this.

1533
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,159
It's just one week in this one week. But you

1534
01:22:08,159 --> 01:22:11,520
know what again, missing you Monday's at one twenty is

1535
01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:13,239
going to be something you're able to tell your friends

1536
01:22:13,359 --> 01:22:15,640
when you're setting the baseball game tonight. Okay. I listened

1537
01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:17,600
to Matt and Ross today and they were talking about

1538
01:22:18,239 --> 01:22:22,800
blank blank, So we're we're actually providing a service. We

1539
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:28,159
should actually charge for this, we should. But in the meantime,

1540
01:22:28,359 --> 01:22:30,319
just patronize our sponsors. Yeah, just take care of our

1541
01:22:30,359 --> 01:22:32,199
sponsors and listen to us every day and tell at

1542
01:22:32,279 --> 01:22:34,840
least fourteen friends of your show by the show. Yeah, no,

1543
01:22:35,039 --> 01:22:37,840
just you know what, tell three friends this week, tell

1544
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:40,119
three friends about the Matt Thomas show, Ross, and then

1545
01:22:40,119 --> 01:22:44,880
tell three people you hate. That's six. It's something that

1546
01:22:45,039 --> 01:22:46,600
so you know it's something if you hate them, you

1547
01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:48,680
can bond over it, correct, you can build a bond.

1548
01:22:48,840 --> 01:22:52,439
We're building bridges. Honestly, that's what we're doing in this town.

1549
01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:55,319
Were peacekeepers. Yes, let's get to the news of noon play. Sure,

1550
01:22:55,319 --> 01:22:55,600
why not?

1551
01:22:57,680 --> 01:22:58,239
Speaker 14: And with that.

1552
01:23:00,279 --> 01:23:04,640
Speaker 2: To you, Rossfield real in the news room. Yes, Matthew,

1553
01:23:04,800 --> 01:23:06,439
the news at noon. Well, we'll go ahead and start

1554
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:09,039
with the Astros. They get into an O two A

1555
01:23:09,119 --> 01:23:12,159
hole against the Angels in their four game set. Then

1556
01:23:12,199 --> 01:23:17,239
they bounced back with a huge comeback victory over the Angels,

1557
01:23:17,279 --> 01:23:19,520
even though things got a little dicey in the end

1558
01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:21,840
of that game. On Saturday, Brian A Bray you through

1559
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:26,000
I believe twenty five twenty six pitches. Then yesterday they

1560
01:23:26,039 --> 01:23:29,399
got in a hole again but came back. Oh, actually,

1561
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,880
I'm sorry. They got a four nothing lead, and then

1562
01:23:32,359 --> 01:23:36,000
Tatsuya Emi unfortunately not effective two and two thirds innings,

1563
01:23:36,159 --> 01:23:40,199
four walks, four earned runs given up as well on

1564
01:23:40,319 --> 01:23:44,800
seventy four pitches. He was pulled for Rodre Munos. So

1565
01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:46,840
you got eleven and nine runs in the last two

1566
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:50,399
games of the four game set. But Matt, the starting

1567
01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:52,760
pitching has not been where you want it to be

1568
01:23:53,319 --> 01:23:57,800
for the Houston Astros and era over seven by the starters,

1569
01:23:58,319 --> 01:24:04,840
A whopping twenty eight walks issued by the Houston Astros

1570
01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:08,000
in four games. For those of you playing at home,

1571
01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:13,840
that's seven walks a game by the Astros pitching staff

1572
01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:16,199
over the weekend. And ironically, or I should say not

1573
01:24:16,239 --> 01:24:18,560
ironically enough, all the games are going like three hours

1574
01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:23,159
in Norse pitchclock me damn walks slow games down. Well,

1575
01:24:23,359 --> 01:24:25,399
there was a record setting weekend for the Astros. Do

1576
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:27,800
you know what their previous record for walks in four

1577
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:33,159
games was? No, I don't. It was in nineteen seventy six.

1578
01:24:33,319 --> 01:24:36,520
It was twenty six Kenny fors damn you. So they

1579
01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:42,359
blew that away. Couple of extra walks, my god, seven

1580
01:24:42,399 --> 01:24:46,239
point six four era by the starting pitching with the Astros.

1581
01:24:46,279 --> 01:24:49,199
It's gonna be better. It has to be better, and

1582
01:24:49,239 --> 01:24:51,800
it will be better. Let's go with them. Followay Mariners

1583
01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,520
two and two in their first weekend against the sucky Guardians.

1584
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:59,439
So everybody, it's all good. Relaxed with are elax. We

1585
01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:02,880
don't have to have just yet. I like that, Lauren

1586
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:09,880
Shiati already in mid season form. Go on, please, yeah,

1587
01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:13,600
were gonna have to find another channel to watch. You

1588
01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,079
literally are turning it right now doing the news. One

1589
01:25:16,159 --> 01:25:18,880
thirty four to one O two of the Houston Rockets

1590
01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:22,159
defeat the New Orleans Pelicans, and I don't want to

1591
01:25:22,199 --> 01:25:24,880
hear nothing about all the crappy Pelicans Pelicans giving the

1592
01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:28,119
Rockets problems. Bad teams have given the Rockets problem. Do

1593
01:25:28,119 --> 01:25:29,960
you know this. Here's a little anego for you. Until

1594
01:25:30,039 --> 01:25:33,039
last night the Rockets Pelicans three games were separated by

1595
01:25:33,039 --> 01:25:36,319
a total love six points. So there you go, one

1596
01:25:36,399 --> 01:25:40,319
thirty four to one oh two. I'm feeling good. How about,

1597
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:44,039
of course, the headliner Matthew thirty six points from outbrun Shinggoon,

1598
01:25:44,159 --> 01:25:47,760
five of seven from three point Land also had thirteen rebounds,

1599
01:25:48,079 --> 01:25:51,680
seven assists, I won zero turnovers. I don't want him

1600
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:53,960
getting very cocky from the three point line. I'm just saying,

1601
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,960
I don't think he just unlocked this untapped potential last night.

1602
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:02,880
But we'll see. But quiet, Matthew. Our good friend Tari

1603
01:26:03,079 --> 01:26:06,399
Easton has been playing better. Back to back double digits,

1604
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:11,760
back to back, multiple three point shots, a horrendous march

1605
01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:15,960
with an uptick hopefully towards April. Uh well, yeah he was.

1606
01:26:16,159 --> 01:26:18,920
He made a three thankfully in a couple of games

1607
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:22,800
recently one for six against Memphis. Not great, but he

1608
01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:27,159
still had sixteen points three of five. That's four of eleven.

1609
01:26:27,319 --> 01:26:30,479
It's the last couple of games. Tan Tari Easton be

1610
01:26:30,680 --> 01:26:36,039
inching back towards effectiveness for the Houston Rockets. If the

1611
01:26:36,119 --> 01:26:39,079
Rockets are going to win a first run series. He's

1612
01:26:39,079 --> 01:26:40,800
got to be the main go to guy off the bench.

1613
01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:45,319
Now will he play well enough to maybe supplant him

1614
01:26:45,359 --> 01:26:48,279
at the back in the lineup. I don't know. I

1615
01:26:48,359 --> 01:26:51,439
think that a men He'll never publicly tell you this.

1616
01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:54,319
I think a man having a little more freedom sports

1617
01:26:54,399 --> 01:26:55,840
rvy not to have the ball in his hands as

1618
01:26:55,920 --> 01:27:00,439
much is invigorating for him. Yeah, rockets twelve than four

1619
01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:05,319
with Reed Sheppard in the starting lineup. Okay, also a

1620
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:08,760
huge upset this weekend as the final four is set,

1621
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:12,399
it is going to be Michigan Arizona, Illinois. And you

1622
01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:18,000
can on an insane duke collapse and in insane final

1623
01:27:18,039 --> 01:27:22,520
moments of the games ahead, who's here?

1624
01:27:22,600 --> 01:27:27,920
Speaker 16: That pop starts caravan two seconds Billings tosses it up.

1625
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:34,600
Speaker 12: John goes.

1626
01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:41,880
Speaker 2: On CBS. Yeah, and I'm standing job per usual. Best

1627
01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:44,520
thing Grant Hill and Bill Raftery did is he laid

1628
01:27:44,560 --> 01:27:46,600
they laid out. Let their announcers say it yes. And

1629
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:49,439
then a few seconds later, after Bill got his pacemaker

1630
01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:55,600
going again ononds, Bill Raftory a national treasure eighty two

1631
01:27:55,680 --> 01:27:59,000
years old and still has his fastball. Yeah. The the

1632
01:27:59,079 --> 01:28:02,039
video of him like he's he's in disbelief, as were

1633
01:28:02,079 --> 01:28:06,760
the rest of the America crazy crazy moment in that game.

1634
01:28:07,039 --> 01:28:08,880
And I'll wrap up your news is a new matter.

1635
01:28:08,880 --> 01:28:14,439
Who you got winning the national Championship Arizona feels about right,

1636
01:28:15,399 --> 01:28:21,319
go big twelve, no SEC team left. So I think

1637
01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:24,000
my best remaining bracket has Michigan. I think I can

1638
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,159
sneak into like winning a couple bucks. So I'll go

1639
01:28:27,199 --> 01:28:29,199
with Michigan. And that's the great thing about is the

1640
01:28:29,199 --> 01:28:31,039
money that you win will be going directly to the

1641
01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:37,119
villar Real Family Foundation. Yes, all right, twelve thirteen, it's

01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:29,000
me ask you this. And I brought this up very

1660
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:33,800
early in the show today. I hate the term choke. Yes,

1661
01:29:34,239 --> 01:29:39,319
did Duke choke? Yes? Oh we'll get Ross's answer maybe

1662
01:29:40,840 --> 01:29:53,800
after this. I've said this for sixteen years. The best

1663
01:29:53,800 --> 01:29:56,840
conversations on the show are the ones during the break.

1664
01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:02,279
And when I write a book, Ah, now, just change

1665
01:30:02,319 --> 01:30:06,039
my name. Oh no, no, no, yeah you I will

1666
01:30:06,039 --> 01:30:11,359

1667
01:30:12,119 --> 01:30:17,479
please boom a good title. I'm not gonna lie. Oh stop.

1668
01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:22,199
Nobody wants to see you bearing anything when I When

1669
01:30:22,239 --> 01:30:24,840
I write the book, I'll tell you everything, okay, good

1670
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:27,319
and bad. Problem is, no one's going to care outs

1671
01:30:27,319 --> 01:30:29,199
out of Houston about mister Texas. I may get a

1672
01:30:29,239 --> 01:30:31,319
few people in Corpus that make care, but that's about

1673
01:30:31,319 --> 01:30:33,199
as far as it goes. We got some fans at

1674
01:30:33,199 --> 01:30:35,760
San Antonio. We do fans of the ballot. We got

1675
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:38,279
our Doug in sal Potdre listen to the show. We'll

1676
01:30:38,279 --> 01:30:39,720
have to get you a good ghost writer. I don't

1677
01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:41,279
think we do very well in the Dallas Fort Worth

1678
01:30:41,279 --> 01:30:45,399
area San Antonio. All I guess we got some Austin folks,

1679
01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:47,880
got a few. I just want to I don't want

1680
01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:49,479
to write a bookunless I'm gonna make a lot of

1681
01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:51,239
money on it, because I'm I don't do it bear

1682
01:30:51,279 --> 01:30:54,760
a lot of my soul. Yeah, I think. I mean

1683
01:30:55,199 --> 01:30:57,479
Brian McTaggart wrote that Astros book and I think it

1684
01:30:57,560 --> 01:30:59,319
was doing quite well. And I don't think he made

1685
01:30:59,319 --> 01:31:01,800
a ton of money off. No, it's just not worth it,

1686
01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:03,760
So don't do it. All right, thank you? Seven to

1687
01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:06,239
one to three. I'll write a book. What would your

1688
01:31:06,279 --> 01:31:11,439
book be called? Mistakes were made? That's a good one. Actually,

1689
01:31:11,479 --> 01:31:16,399
I like that. I actually I am actually happy that you.

1690
01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:18,920
I did text you yesterday and you got within the

1691
01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:21,640
two hour range. Yeah, I think you're within two hours.

1692
01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:25,960
I must have got lucky. I got lucky because you know, yeah,

1693
01:31:26,039 --> 01:31:28,359
I was asking about Brian a Brew. When was this?

1694
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:31,800
Oh yeah, I was just getting back into town. You know,

1695
01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:33,760
Brian a Brew's contract ends at the end of the year.

1696
01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:37,159
I think, oh, yeah, he can go. They know his

1697
01:31:37,279 --> 01:31:40,199
arbitration clock. They know there's a reason he's been out

1698
01:31:40,239 --> 01:31:48,159
there seventy games over and over. Tomorrow eleven thirty. Got feeling,

1699
01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:51,520
don't you think? Okay, like you not agree on it.

1700
01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:55,960
Oh no, we're going to agree on it and say discomfort. No, okay, good,

1701
01:31:56,000 --> 01:31:58,079
I don't know. I can't predict the injuries. No, he gone.

1702
01:31:58,119 --> 01:32:00,960
I was talking about the future, and you need leverage

1703
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:04,600
release though you can go get that. Yeah, we say that,

1704
01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:07,479
who's but who's after Brian to brave you? I'm talking

1705
01:32:07,479 --> 01:32:16,159
about in the frigent market, Okay. I I can't see

1706
01:32:16,159 --> 01:32:19,279
the Astro spending big money on him. I just can't. Well,

1707
01:32:19,279 --> 01:32:21,760
if you're looking for a free agent, he has a

1708
01:32:21,760 --> 01:32:23,039
good this year, If he has a good year, he

1709
01:32:23,079 --> 01:32:26,960
may think he's he's in a rally. It's fine, okay,

1710
01:32:27,119 --> 01:32:30,680
nothing to worry about. Just two games and velosity down. Yeah,

1711
01:32:30,760 --> 01:32:34,840
just it's in ninety one point seven. Okay, it wasn't

1712
01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:37,119
that bad, wasn't Yeah? This for one, this is like

1713
01:32:37,159 --> 01:32:42,880

mage of cost?

1720
01:32:59,560 --> 01:33:01,560
Speaker 9: Because of ticket they're going to be one hundred dollars.

1721
01:33:02,079 --> 01:33:04,399
Speaker 2: Well, I mean it's about it's a plot to supply

1722
01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:06,439
and demand, and if there's demand for it, then one

1723
01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:08,520
hundred dollars will be in. If it's no demand for

1724
01:33:08,560 --> 01:33:09,960
it'll be nineteen dollars.

1725
01:33:10,760 --> 01:33:13,159
Speaker 9: Do you remember when the Hilton Furniture guy was trying

1726
01:33:13,199 --> 01:33:15,479
to buy the team for eleven million dollars?

1727
01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:15,600
Speaker 1: Oh?

1728
01:33:15,640 --> 01:33:18,119
Speaker 2: He bought it all right, and then sold it really

1729
01:33:18,199 --> 01:33:19,680
quick or got rid of it because the league is like,

1730
01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:21,920
you can't hold this team anymore.

1731
01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:25,800
Speaker 9: You went broke the I watched the bacle with the

1732
01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:26,760
Renegade game.

1733
01:33:27,039 --> 01:33:27,199
Speaker 6: Uh.

1734
01:33:27,279 --> 01:33:29,640
Speaker 9: The only reason I watched is because we had squares,

1735
01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:31,479
and we're degenerates on that level.

1736
01:33:31,680 --> 01:33:39,880
Speaker 2: You're doing gambler squares. I guess that fits. Yeah, Okay,

1737
01:33:39,880 --> 01:33:43,640
you're a sick human being. Easy, I respect it. Easy, easier.

1738
01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:45,000
Do you work? Are you retired?

1739
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:46,760
Speaker 3: No?

1740
01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:47,279
Speaker 9: I worked?

1741
01:33:47,279 --> 01:33:49,560
Speaker 2: Their Wait a minute, can can I ask what you

1742
01:33:49,560 --> 01:33:50,119
do for a living?

1743
01:33:51,439 --> 01:33:54,319
Speaker 9: I'm an IT professional and you and.

1744
01:33:54,279 --> 01:33:56,279
Speaker 2: You got money to spend on two hundred dollars squares

1745
01:33:56,279 --> 01:33:58,199
for a UFL game? What is wrong with you? How

1746
01:33:58,199 --> 01:34:00,000
do you find enough people to fill out the square?

1747
01:34:01,680 --> 01:34:01,920
Speaker 8: It was?

1748
01:34:01,920 --> 01:34:04,159
Speaker 9: It was a hundred on there, and I mean, I'm

1749
01:34:04,159 --> 01:34:06,920
guessing one twenty. We're watching the game, but I know

1750
01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:09,479
a hundred of what they were on the on the board.

1751
01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:13,119
We're watching the game too, But yeah, that was that

1752
01:34:13,239 --> 01:34:16,560
was like pulling teas gentlemen. Would would a h Eastern

1753
01:34:16,680 --> 01:34:21,039
Michigan versus Achron be a better game on a Tuesday

1754
01:34:21,119 --> 01:34:21,760
than that game?

1755
01:34:22,399 --> 01:34:23,640
Speaker 2: That's pretty good comp.

1756
01:34:28,079 --> 01:34:32,199
Speaker 9: Third thing I was going to bring up that was

1757
01:34:32,239 --> 01:34:34,600
a Brian bra you thing that you guys just brought up.

1758
01:34:35,159 --> 01:34:37,319
What do you think it's going to happen? Who is

1759
01:34:37,359 --> 01:34:38,920
going to step up in that role? And I'll hang

1760
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:40,079
up and listen, gentlemen.

1761
01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:42,159
Speaker 2: Well, no, there is no role to step up. That's

1762
01:34:42,199 --> 01:34:45,760
his role. He's not yet. No, no, no, And when

1763
01:34:45,800 --> 01:34:48,199
I were, I will add into existence. Why don't want

1764
01:34:48,199 --> 01:34:50,520
to bring that up as a conversation. Don't even do it.

1765
01:34:51,119 --> 01:34:53,439
I'm concerned, don't be No, I'm not concern. I'm not.

1766
01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:56,960
I'm saying that maybe the thought of him going back

1767
01:34:57,000 --> 01:34:58,760
to back probably isn't going to be in the in

1768
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:00,479
the in the future for you. Yeah, he pitched a

1769
01:35:00,520 --> 01:35:02,439
lot on Saturday. They didn't want to use the bullpen

1770
01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:05,640
as much as they did. I mean nobody got to

1771
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:08,439
the sixth inning, did anybody. I don't think anybody recorded

1772
01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:10,920
it out in the fifth inning. No, the starting pitching

1773
01:35:11,039 --> 01:35:14,760
gets a D for their performance over the week. But actually,

1774
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:17,079
maybe even culture or that, I mean, Hunter Brown isn't

1775
01:35:17,079 --> 01:35:20,359
even doesn't even get you five. So nobody even got

1776
01:35:20,359 --> 01:35:22,520
five innings. It's an f starting pitching was an from

1777
01:35:22,560 --> 01:35:25,560
the series. Doesn't necessarily mean it can't. I mean it's

1778
01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:26,920
going to rebound.

1779
01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:26,880
Speaker 6: It is.

1780
01:35:27,159 --> 01:35:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, not worried about it. Yeah, Mike Burrow's co ace

1781
01:35:31,880 --> 01:35:35,119
off to a rocky start, but will be fine. We're

1782
01:35:35,119 --> 01:35:38,760
calling him a co ace. I said, it's off to

1783
01:35:38,800 --> 01:35:41,319
a rocky star Mike Burrow's co ace. Does he know

1784
01:35:41,359 --> 01:35:45,119
he's the Brown, He's the I'm saying the co's campaign

1785
01:35:45,159 --> 01:35:49,000
is off to a rocky start. Oh no, yeah, he

1786
01:35:49,039 --> 01:35:50,680
did he did get he went five and two thirds.

1787
01:35:50,720 --> 01:35:54,479
I'm sorry, Mike, Mike's not listening, okay, but nobody went

1788
01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:56,800
six innings, didn't didn't Joe spot a home? A little

1789
01:35:56,800 --> 01:35:59,680
bit of a red ass? Yeah he is. I like

1790
01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:02,520
when you get red asses on the show. I like

1791
01:36:02,560 --> 01:36:07,000
when they like when we get red outs. Oh wait,

1792
01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:11,039
hose l twob okay at second base of the week. Fine, sure,

1793
01:36:11,079 --> 01:36:13,359
why not? Did he embarrass you?

1794
01:36:13,399 --> 01:36:13,479
Speaker 1: No?

1795
01:36:13,560 --> 01:36:15,680
Speaker 2: I wasn't embarrassed. Did he batch a ball? Not that

1796
01:36:15,720 --> 01:36:18,640
I know of a couple of double plays he was turning. Yeah,

1797
01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:23,039
you know why he's comfortable. He's back in a familiar spot.

1798
01:36:23,439 --> 01:36:25,239
By the way, I remember when the show was two

1799
01:36:25,239 --> 01:36:27,199
to four. We were like, okay, we'll do it. But

1800
01:36:27,279 --> 01:36:29,319
it's not great. It's different. We're not in decline, Matt.

1801
01:36:29,319 --> 01:36:32,479
We're on the uptick. Yes we are. Cam Smith. By

1802
01:36:32,520 --> 01:36:34,760
the way, I think I saw one hundred and thirty

1803
01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:37,279
seven feet he covered on that catch he made in

1804
01:36:37,319 --> 01:36:40,079
the right foul territory. Oh, his glove's going to give

1805
01:36:40,159 --> 01:36:43,479
him a not complete benefit of doubt, but a little

1806
01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:47,079
bit more wiggle room. That ground he covered was more

1807
01:36:47,119 --> 01:36:53,960
than any catch of last year. How about that? Any outfielder.

1808
01:36:54,079 --> 01:36:57,600
The most outfield ground caught covered was one hundred and

1809
01:36:57,600 --> 01:37:00,279
thirty six feet last year by Nathan Luke's on that

1810
01:37:00,319 --> 01:37:02,560
catch he made, he covered one hundred and thirty seven five.

1811
01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:04,000
I got news for you, and this is nothing that

1812
01:37:04,039 --> 01:37:06,239
you don't already know. He's an athlete. The reason why

1813
01:37:06,239 --> 01:37:08,880
I made the transfer five star grab Matt. Of course,

1814
01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:11,760
as you know, plus point eight out's above average on

1815
01:37:11,800 --> 01:37:16,159
a single catch. Maybe you lost me there? Did he

1816
01:37:16,279 --> 01:37:19,760
catch it? Yes? What was he catch?

1817
01:37:19,800 --> 01:37:20,000
Speaker 3: Ball?

1818
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:22,680
Speaker 2: Good play baseball? Want to make it your level for

1819
01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:25,880
if you want? How about drive to right field? Cam

1820
01:37:25,960 --> 01:37:28,880
Smith running and he makes the catch, and there's no

1821
01:37:28,920 --> 01:37:31,479
need to give you some room. Week asked stat about it?

1822
01:37:33,239 --> 01:37:38,199
Good percent? He catch baseball? Good? Okay, I use verbs

1823
01:37:38,239 --> 01:37:42,560
catch baseball good? Cam Smith is an excellent defensive player baseball.

1824
01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:47,560
Good catch, Cam? I use verbs? Ross, doesn't I got

1825
01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:49,319
one a verb before you? I'll take during the break, twelve

1826
01:37:49,399 --> 01:37:51,640
twenty eight, Sports Talk seven ninety It is the Matt

1827
01:37:51,680 --> 01:37:54,119
Thomas Show with Ross seven one three two one two

1828
01:37:54,359 --> 01:37:58,560
five seven ninety seven one three two one two five

1829
01:37:59,119 --> 01:38:06,159

1830
01:38:06,159 --> 01:38:08,079
it again. Because we've got no response the first time.

1831
01:38:08,199 --> 01:38:12,800
Ross that we're moving on. Did you kind of win

1832
01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:20,640
that game or did do choke? I have your answer,

1833
01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:25,840
I'm not allowed. I would like a caller to tell

1834
01:38:25,880 --> 01:38:30,119
me what they saw if you watched it. I'm afraid

1835
01:38:30,159 --> 01:38:33,760
the numbers an't gonna be great for Houston. We had

1836
01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:35,399
some people that went to the Iowa Illinois game, but

1837
01:38:35,399 --> 01:38:37,399
they were they had local ties to it. By the way,

1838
01:38:37,439 --> 01:38:39,159
I brought this up in the first hour of the show.

1839
01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:41,319
Did you go to the Iowa Illinois game it was

1840
01:38:41,359 --> 01:38:42,880
on Saturday? Because maybe you were a Cougar fan like

1841
01:38:42,880 --> 01:38:44,800
I already bought the tickets moth as we'll go and

1842
01:38:45,039 --> 01:38:47,560
you're probably too hurt. Try to dump them for whatever

1843
01:38:47,560 --> 01:38:51,319
you can get. Did you go to Iowa Illinois without

1844
01:38:51,319 --> 01:38:53,199
a dog in the fight? We had two callers in

1845
01:38:53,239 --> 01:38:55,239
the first half hour of the show today. One was

1846
01:38:55,279 --> 01:38:58,880
an Iowa fan and one was an Illinois fan. These

1847
01:38:58,920 --> 01:39:01,960
ticket gougers are That was anybody in the building that

1848
01:39:02,239 --> 01:39:04,000
just said, you know what, I want to watch high

1849
01:39:04,119 --> 01:39:09,159
level Elite eight basketball and that damn scoreboard went off

1850
01:39:09,199 --> 01:39:12,319
again and just buzz for like fifteen straight minutes. Apparently

1851
01:39:13,479 --> 01:39:25,600
got to use the air hoorn sometimes one today. Our

1852
01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:31,079
initial segment of missing You, I wrote it on my

1853
01:39:31,239 --> 01:39:34,279
the notes on my hotel notepad. I got four more

1854
01:39:34,359 --> 01:39:37,279
this weekend, uh in New Orleans. I think I got

1855
01:39:37,279 --> 01:39:41,720
twelve of the trip overall between the four cities. I

1856
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:46,960
have an addiction. You're you have a sickness, correct, But

1857
01:39:47,000 --> 01:39:48,720
I am amusing paper, and I'm sure it's recyclable, so

1858
01:39:48,720 --> 01:39:57,039
it's okay, all right, So the question for you is, okay, Yeah,

1859
01:39:57,439 --> 01:40:04,079
did Ukn craft up beautifully executed, made shots not gonnadn't

1860
01:40:04,079 --> 01:40:06,119
watch the second half because I was busy with the rockets,

1861
01:40:06,119 --> 01:40:09,840
but I did see obviously the last few seconds. Did

1862
01:40:09,920 --> 01:40:16,119
u kan chip away or did you tag Duke Duke

1863
01:40:16,159 --> 01:40:20,479
excuse me? Uh Sean tweets in Duke choked the last play,

1864
01:40:20,520 --> 01:40:24,359
but Yukon fought like hell to get it to that point.

1865
01:40:24,840 --> 01:40:31,960
That feels fair. It's a choke. To me, I defined

1866
01:40:31,960 --> 01:40:36,319
a choke as the moment was too big, You panicked,

1867
01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:39,680
you froze, however you want to put it. That's a choke.

1868
01:40:40,640 --> 01:40:44,800
People make shots, people misshots, people make great plays stuff

1869
01:40:44,840 --> 01:40:50,680
like that, and and they don't choke. Duke choked, Yeah,

1870
01:40:50,720 --> 01:40:52,880
like a panicked in the last moment, threw the ball away.

1871
01:40:53,159 --> 01:40:56,159
And also it took an insane shot. Was that like

1872
01:40:56,199 --> 01:40:59,479
a thirty five footer? I mean, the logo was huge,

1873
01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:03,279
but it was part of the logo. Logo also carried

1874
01:41:03,319 --> 01:41:07,239
about fifteen yards, but that's on the hearing there. The

1875
01:41:07,279 --> 01:41:09,399
logo is almost in the paint. Do you want to

1876
01:41:09,399 --> 01:41:12,039
see a logo? Three? And again, I've said this a

1877
01:41:12,079 --> 01:41:13,960
lot of times are on the show today. I don't

1878
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:18,880
like using a term choke. That's a very obusive verb. Well,

1879
01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:21,159
you got a bunch of guys getting big paid, get

1880
01:41:21,159 --> 01:41:24,239
big bucks on Duke too, that you do, and they

1881
01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:27,039
this is not this history did to repeat itself with

1882
01:41:27,079 --> 01:41:29,079
it a double Digitlian against the Cougars last year in

1883
01:41:29,159 --> 01:41:31,960
the sweet final four semifinal game. Yeah, you know I'm

1884
01:41:31,960 --> 01:41:35,000
gonna I'm curious about that one because they I mean,

1885
01:41:35,600 --> 01:41:37,399
that was more. Also like the Cougars took that one,

1886
01:41:37,439 --> 01:41:38,840
but they threw the ball a couple away a couple

1887
01:41:38,880 --> 01:41:40,319
of times at the end of that game too. Right,

1888
01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:43,520
that's the thing that fun Even in the NBA, even

1889
01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:47,319
when it's a rockets like inbounding the ball can be

1890
01:41:47,359 --> 01:41:53,359
so difficult. Sometimes it's wild yep. So because I don't

1891
01:41:53,399 --> 01:41:55,159
like to use the term choke. I don't use it

1892
01:41:55,800 --> 01:42:00,000
in my mind as my entire life as a huge

1893
01:42:00,119 --> 01:42:02,039
in sports fan with even when I was gone to

1894
01:42:02,039 --> 01:42:06,880
Minneapolis into Salt Lake City. Hm, can you name in

1895
01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:12,640
my mind? There have been chokes in Houston sports, but

1896
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:15,680
the greatest choke of them all. And I don't even

1897
01:42:15,760 --> 01:42:23,239
think eighty three it's even close? Am I correct? Which

1898
01:42:23,439 --> 01:42:29,520
was that your final answer? Eighty three Houston Cougars. That

1899
01:42:29,600 --> 01:42:31,520
is not the correct answer. Oh really?

1900
01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:31,880
Speaker 6: Oh?

1901
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:36,479
Speaker 2: You know the bills thirty five to three, Yeah, bills

1902
01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:38,520
being the orders. I mean, at least they came back

1903
01:42:38,560 --> 01:42:41,279
and forced overtime. Is that what you want to go with?

1904
01:42:41,760 --> 01:42:43,840
I don't know if that's what I want to go with.

1905
01:42:44,159 --> 01:42:48,239
Forty one thirty eight overtime bills. I think if you're

1906
01:42:48,319 --> 01:42:53,319
up thirty five to three early third remember if I'm

1907
01:42:53,319 --> 01:42:56,119
miss if I'm correct on this, I think Bubba McDowell

1908
01:42:56,720 --> 01:43:02,760
it took out a pick six early third quarter. See,

1909
01:43:02,880 --> 01:43:07,239
basketball is different because basketball shots can be missed. You

1910
01:43:07,319 --> 01:43:10,079
don't if you if you shoot forty five percent from

1911
01:43:10,119 --> 01:43:13,760
the floor, that's pretty good, right. If you shoot thirty

1912
01:43:13,800 --> 01:43:16,159
eight percent forty percent as a team from three. That's

1913
01:43:16,279 --> 01:43:19,520
pretty good. I'm gonna miss shots, but you're going to

1914
01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:24,319
miss shots. I think it's hard in theory to choke

1915
01:43:24,359 --> 01:43:26,399
a basketball game. That's why I wanted to bring it

1916
01:43:26,479 --> 01:43:30,279
up to you, because you do miss more shots than you, Mike.

1917
01:43:31,600 --> 01:43:34,760
So if a team gets cold, what I would have

1918
01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:37,520
to say is, if you choke something away, it has

1919
01:43:37,560 --> 01:43:43,199
to in basketball. It has to involve multiple turnovers, multiple

1920
01:43:43,239 --> 01:43:48,319
silly fouls. Yeah, and then add a sprinkle of you've

1921
01:43:48,359 --> 01:43:51,399
gone five or six minutes without making a shot. Duke

1922
01:43:51,720 --> 01:43:58,239
missing free throws would be choking like the Cougar's in three,

1923
01:43:58,319 --> 01:44:00,840
especially if you're like a good shooter. Yeah.

1924
01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:01,840
Speaker 6: Uh.

1925
01:44:03,119 --> 01:44:05,600
Speaker 2: Duke was up sixty seven to sixty one with a

1926
01:44:05,640 --> 01:44:07,800
minute fourteen. They were up six with a minute fourteen

1927
01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:10,840
and con Kiniple missed it. kN k Nipple and Cooper

1928
01:44:10,880 --> 01:44:13,279
Flag on that team. How do we do it? I

1929
01:44:13,319 --> 01:44:20,199
don't know how we did it. Yeah, then they made

1930
01:44:20,239 --> 01:44:25,079
a three, Duke turned the ball over. Duke was missing

1931
01:44:25,079 --> 01:44:27,760
free throws. You have to understand, I was really drunk

1932
01:44:27,800 --> 01:44:30,119
and Samprus going that game was taking really Yes, you're

1933
01:44:30,119 --> 01:44:33,640
having a good time. I was especially at that time.

1934
01:44:33,680 --> 01:44:36,319
And then when they came back and they won, I

1935
01:44:36,359 --> 01:44:39,039
had everybody in the bar hugging me. Oh, that's beautiful, Matt.

1936
01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:40,880
And then I got on a plane to go to

1937
01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:44,840
San Antonio and then watched that in person for the championship.

1938
01:44:46,039 --> 01:44:52,359
I'm sorry, it's fine. It happened. They were close, real close. No, Cigar,

1939
01:44:52,600 --> 01:44:54,760
didn't we lead like thirty eight plus minutes of the game.

1940
01:44:55,359 --> 01:44:57,000
You don't have to bring it up, worry about it.

1941
01:44:57,039 --> 01:44:59,000
You just it was a great team. Flora was a

1942
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:03,800
great team. Players in the NBA right now, what's their

1943
01:45:03,880 --> 01:45:06,079
their coach's name? People think he might go to what's

1944
01:45:06,079 --> 01:45:08,680
going on with UNC basketball. The name that it keeps

1945
01:45:08,720 --> 01:45:11,000
bringing being brought up is Billy Donovan. Who's the coach

1946
01:45:11,039 --> 01:45:17,479
the Bulls right now? I guess, And he's been He's

1947
01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:20,720
been the NBA a long time. He's sixty years old. Yeah,

1948
01:45:20,960 --> 01:45:24,520
but break Patino reinvigorated Saint John's and he's no Springshick.

1949
01:45:27,279 --> 01:45:31,000
That's true. Yeah, Todd Golden, what about Todd Golden forty?

1950
01:45:31,119 --> 01:45:34,479
I don't have any thoughts about North Carolina or hiring now. Funny,

1951
01:45:34,600 --> 01:45:38,079
North Carolina loves hiring their own. But I think they're

1952
01:45:38,079 --> 01:45:40,439
going to go outside the North Carolina friend zone to

1953
01:45:40,800 --> 01:45:48,760
hire their coach. Okay, I didn't realize. I didn't realize

1954
01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:53,000
Todd Golden was coaching in Israel at some point too.

1955
01:45:53,880 --> 01:45:56,159
Feels like a very believing or not category I'm playing

1956
01:45:56,479 --> 01:45:59,680
when he gets the job, if he leaves, seems like

1957
01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:02,279
a great candidate. It's been doing very well at Florida,

1958
01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:15,359
literally a national champion. Thanks sorry, next year coach Sampson's back. Yeah,

1959
01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:17,000
you know what the beautiful thing is when he four

1960
01:46:17,079 --> 01:46:19,880
starters though, you know it's great, you know, let's know,

1961
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:21,399
that's what I'm saying. In the own the old days,

1962
01:46:21,439 --> 01:46:23,880
you do negative recruiting like they did when Mac Brown

1963
01:46:24,159 --> 01:46:26,319
Brack Browns towards the end of his career, when Nick

1964
01:46:26,359 --> 01:46:28,880
Saban was in the Hey, man, I don't know if

1965
01:46:28,880 --> 01:46:31,479
you want to commit there for for multiple years because

1966
01:46:31,479 --> 01:46:33,199
coach might be gone. Well I might be gone.

1967
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:34,159
Speaker 1: So guess what.

1968
01:46:35,439 --> 01:46:38,319
Speaker 2: Everybody's on a one year contract. Anyways. You can't negative

1969
01:46:38,319 --> 01:46:40,520
recruit against Calvin Sampson when the whole team's there for

1970
01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:42,479
one year too. You know what's awesome about recruiting that

1971
01:46:42,560 --> 01:46:44,560
you know you don't have to go into the school

1972
01:46:44,560 --> 01:46:47,479
of business and talk about how great the dorm is.

1973
01:46:48,199 --> 01:46:50,000
You just get. You sit in the room with a

1974
01:46:50,039 --> 01:46:52,880
mom on the day you say, what's the budget? Yeah,

1975
01:46:53,039 --> 01:46:56,079
it's that's your check. Yeah, it's not even a deep conversation.

1976
01:46:56,359 --> 01:47:00,600
Does matter some when people are offering some er money?

1977
01:47:02,239 --> 01:47:05,319
Why would the wild matter of architecture matter to me?

1978
01:47:05,319 --> 01:47:07,640
If I'm a one and done, it wouldn't. No, I'm saying, yeah,

1979
01:47:07,640 --> 01:47:09,279
if you're a one and done, it doesn't. What it

1980
01:47:09,359 --> 01:47:11,119
might if you want to come back? Oh, I got.

1981
01:47:11,439 --> 01:47:13,640
I was listening to a national radio show. I think

1982
01:47:13,640 --> 01:47:17,119
it was mad Dog last night coming home from New Orleans. Okay,

1983
01:47:17,840 --> 01:47:20,159
not not mad Dog, the mad Dog Radio mad Dog Great,

1984
01:47:20,279 --> 01:47:22,920
which is support. The guy that was on the show

1985
01:47:23,159 --> 01:47:24,840
brought up a decent point. He says, you know what,

1986
01:47:26,399 --> 01:47:32,279
maybe freshmen can't lead to national championships. Cooper Flag and

1987
01:47:32,359 --> 01:47:36,479
kN Kinnepple last year, two very talented freshmen. This year

1988
01:47:36,520 --> 01:47:42,239
you had the Boozer Boys. Can freshmen eighteen year old

1989
01:47:42,319 --> 01:47:46,399
men nineteen? Maybe in some cases I can't. Is the

1990
01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:51,880
pressure too high? That was a lot of the thinking

1991
01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:54,760
with Kyle Perry's lack of success. You're bringing in four

1992
01:47:54,840 --> 01:47:58,439
or five guys and every year, and it doesn't always

1993
01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:02,880
work out. I'm trying to think of a recent examples,

1994
01:48:02,920 --> 01:48:04,760
because when calipariy won it all, i mean, Anthony Davis

1995
01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:06,680
was a freshman and there's a bunch of freshmen on

1996
01:48:06,680 --> 01:48:08,520
that team and they won the national championship. But I'd

1997
01:48:08,520 --> 01:48:10,119
have to look at like the list of a lot

1998
01:48:10,119 --> 01:48:15,479
of national champions and there could be something to that experience,

1999
01:48:15,640 --> 01:48:17,640
tournament experience. But you know what, they're choking in the

2000
01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:20,880
big moment. I'm going to take my chances with the

2001
01:48:21,399 --> 01:48:25,439
All American freshmen over the nice ball player who I

2002
01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:27,199
might be with me for three or four years. Who

2003
01:48:27,399 --> 01:48:31,960
are they the recent like number one top overall picks.

2004
01:48:32,039 --> 01:48:35,520
I'm trying to think of who come off of teams

2005
01:48:35,520 --> 01:48:39,399
that won the national championship. It's not a lot. Off

2006
01:48:39,479 --> 01:48:41,079
the top of my head. You had two guys that

2007
01:48:41,119 --> 01:48:45,000
were lottery picks that played college basketball at Rutgers. They

2008
01:48:45,279 --> 01:48:48,880
make a tournament not even it's not indicative. Tournament success

2009
01:48:49,039 --> 01:48:54,560
is frankly not indicative of your NBA success. I mean,

2010
01:48:54,600 --> 01:48:57,079
you're you're you know you're gonna go to those thoroughbred schools.

2011
01:48:57,119 --> 01:48:59,800
I mean, obviously with Knipple and Flag, you went early

2012
01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:02,640
to those guys. We're also talking about a very volatile

2013
01:49:02,680 --> 01:49:05,279
tournament where I mean, if if Yukon and Duke play,

2014
01:49:05,399 --> 01:49:08,600
you know, ten times, Yukon probably wins six or I

2015
01:49:08,640 --> 01:49:11,920
mean Duke probably win six seven. Maybe I would say, yeah,

2016
01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:15,520
at least seven times. So you're also we're dealing with

2017
01:49:15,640 --> 01:49:17,760
I mean, it's tough to get a massive sample size

2018
01:49:17,760 --> 01:49:21,039
and a one and done tournament too. It's part of

2019
01:49:21,079 --> 01:49:23,319
the charm of the tournament though. Yeah, you have to

2020
01:49:23,399 --> 01:49:28,159
play excellent forty minutes every single time. You don't. You can't.

2021
01:49:28,279 --> 01:49:31,319
You can't be a our down zero two. We'll get

2022
01:49:31,319 --> 01:49:33,600
this fixed. Yeah, the best team does not always win

2023
01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:36,479
the national championship. And I think I do believe if

2024
01:49:36,520 --> 01:49:38,279
you kind of Duke played ten times, Duke and wins

2025
01:49:38,279 --> 01:49:40,880
seven of those ten times, they're the better. Hell ross,

2026
01:49:40,920 --> 01:49:43,119
if Duke and Houston would have played ten times last year,

2027
01:49:43,159 --> 01:49:46,600
Duke would have won seven of those games. I gotta

2028
01:49:46,640 --> 01:49:48,439
win the one that's on happening on the floor, Get

2029
01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:51,000
that right, all right? Uh, if you'd like to join

2030
01:49:51,079 --> 01:49:54,199

01:50:08,600 --> 01:50:10,960
then the Astros head west for their first road trip

2036
01:50:11,119 --> 01:50:15,119
of the season. Seven one, three, five, seven nine. If

2037
01:50:15,119 --> 01:50:17,359
you want to talk some Asters baseball, some initial impressions,

2038
01:50:17,399 --> 01:50:19,520
what you saw with the first four games. If you

2039
01:50:19,560 --> 01:50:21,720
want to get into some Rockets as Apprins Shingoon had

2040
01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:24,399
an amazing night last night for the Rockets against the Pels.

2041
01:50:24,880 --> 01:50:28,399
We've got the college basketball, uh, anything else that I'm Oh,

2042
01:50:28,479 --> 01:50:30,760
the comments are now in town. Yes, I don't know

2043
01:50:30,760 --> 01:50:34,319
if there's much of a buzz for it. There's some buzz.

2044
01:50:34,439 --> 01:50:36,359
There are some buzz for sure. Around the office. They're

2045
01:50:36,359 --> 01:50:38,399
talking about it. Oh that they are, that they are,

2046
01:50:39,039 --> 01:50:41,119
And I'm sure the Rockets office is like, man, our

2047
01:50:41,159 --> 01:50:42,840
boss has spent three and a million dollars to goad

2048
01:50:42,840 --> 01:50:45,800
and sell some tickets. Yeah, it'sna be weird. I wonder

2049
01:50:45,800 --> 01:50:48,840
what Connecticut's going to do being a lame duck up there.

2050
01:50:48,880 --> 01:50:50,640
We've we've done lame duck in this town before and

2051
01:50:50,720 --> 01:50:55,039
ain't a pretty sight. Yeah, those those Houston Older games

2052
01:50:55,119 --> 01:50:58,520
last season with Steve McNair and Eddie George and Jeff

2053
01:50:58,560 --> 01:51:02,399
Fisher coaching is. You can get a pretty good ticket

2054
01:51:02,399 --> 01:51:05,199
at the Astrodome, but that's kind of gets worries. You

2055
01:51:05,279 --> 01:51:08,279
get a decent section and get that right. Seven one three,

2056
01:51:08,359 --> 01:51:10,760

Speaker 3: Hey, I got that.

2063
01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:31,520
Speaker 2: Others just get rid of that liner. We were done

2064
01:51:31,560 --> 01:51:33,800
with Mike Fires. It's just a bad part of Houston

2065
01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:42,000
sports memories. Enough. Yes, it's he's been Uh it's probably

2066
01:51:42,079 --> 01:51:45,520
time we can delete that one. Oops. Who was that?

2067
01:51:46,079 --> 01:51:49,319
That's a video? Check out a video of our show.

2068
01:51:49,399 --> 01:51:52,079
We're going to put up a little clips on occasion. Yeah,

2069
01:51:52,119 --> 01:51:54,000
we're tu you peel the curtain back of the show

2070
01:51:54,039 --> 01:52:01,439
on Instagram. Needed ruling from this weekend. Okay, I got

2071
01:52:01,439 --> 01:52:04,760
a great friend of mine. I won't say who it is. Hmmm,

2072
01:52:07,119 --> 01:52:09,720
has a wireless earbuds in his ears. Twenty four to seven.

2073
01:52:10,920 --> 01:52:16,560
I know who it is I know, and I just

2074
01:52:16,760 --> 01:52:19,039
don't know if he's talking to me or talking to

2075
01:52:19,079 --> 01:52:25,399
somebody else. And I'm I don't know. Do I need

2076
01:52:25,439 --> 01:52:32,479
to continue to ask? Go ahead, it's not good. We're

2077
01:52:32,479 --> 01:52:33,760
so that's why I brought up. I went to the

2078
01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:37,000
bathroom and there's a guy. There was a guy walking

2079
01:52:37,039 --> 01:52:38,560
to our deli which is next to our office, and

2080
01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:40,159
then we had earbuds on. I was like, I gotta

2081
01:52:40,239 --> 01:52:48,560
I forgot to ask rosc about this. Yeah, I I

2082
01:52:48,560 --> 01:52:51,399
I understand having the phone with you, always available to

2083
01:52:51,439 --> 01:52:54,920
you because we use it for texting, or we use

2084
01:52:54,960 --> 01:52:57,840
it for phone calls, or some people need it for

2085
01:52:57,880 --> 01:53:00,640
their jobs, but most of us just are obsessed by it.

2086
01:53:01,960 --> 01:53:03,279
When you're in the elevator, what do you do? You

2087
01:53:03,279 --> 01:53:04,960
don't look around and say hello, how'd your day gone.

2088
01:53:04,960 --> 01:53:06,960
I try to stay off you get down, Even in

2089
01:53:07,000 --> 01:53:08,920
the elevator. I try to say, I'm trying to be better.

2090
01:53:08,960 --> 01:53:10,560
You're that's you're better man than I guess. As soon

2091
01:53:10,600 --> 01:53:12,079
as I got the elevator today, I went right to that,

2092
01:53:12,119 --> 01:53:13,520
went to the phone. Look, man, I don't have my

2093
01:53:13,560 --> 01:53:16,720
Apple Watch on very so that I can I'm trying

2094
01:53:16,720 --> 01:53:19,880
to stay off my phone more that's great. Uh, but

2095
01:53:19,960 --> 01:53:23,720
the damn earbuds, the wireless ones, you just give off

2096
01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:26,239
the impression of I may be talking to you, but

2097
01:53:26,319 --> 01:53:29,279
I might not be talking to you. I'm worried about

2098
01:53:29,279 --> 01:53:31,159
those people. If you're doing it for work, that's one thing,

2099
01:53:31,239 --> 01:53:33,520
But if you're doing it all day every day, it's

2100
01:53:33,560 --> 01:53:34,359
over stimulation.

2101
01:53:36,000 --> 01:53:36,199
Speaker 3: You know.

2102
01:53:36,279 --> 01:53:38,800
Speaker 13: I saw a guy with wireless earbuds yesterday at the

2103
01:53:38,840 --> 01:53:40,680
Astros game on the whole time.

2104
01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:41,840
Speaker 6: Was it now?

2105
01:53:41,880 --> 01:53:43,239
Speaker 2: I wonder if he was listening to the game. Some

2106
01:53:43,239 --> 01:53:46,039
people do do that that I get when you're at

2107
01:53:46,079 --> 01:53:48,159
the baseball game. Did this person like they were looking

2108
01:53:48,159 --> 01:53:52,359
to be on the iHeartRadio app? Just tell the truth, dah.

2109
01:53:52,439 --> 01:53:54,640
Was he like watching movies that's the thing. He had

2110
01:53:54,680 --> 01:53:58,000
shaves on, glasses and airbods. Was he being forced to

2111
01:53:58,000 --> 01:53:59,479
be there or was he there because he really wanted

2112
01:53:59,479 --> 01:54:05,720
to be there? Who's you with? I'm trying to stay

2113
01:54:05,720 --> 01:54:08,079
off my phone as kids? You know. Apparently there was

2114
01:54:08,119 --> 01:54:10,359
some settlements some people wanted, like a class action lawsuit.

2115
01:54:10,399 --> 01:54:14,079
It was against Google and somebody else, maybe Meta for

2116
01:54:14,600 --> 01:54:17,199
they you know, they built the algorithm in less scroll.

2117
01:54:17,239 --> 01:54:19,039
Remember when were first on Twitter, there was no inless

2118
01:54:19,039 --> 01:54:21,319
scroll it would be whoever you follow, and if they

2119
01:54:21,319 --> 01:54:23,239
weren't tweeting, if it was like two am, there was

2120
01:54:23,279 --> 01:54:25,399
no tweets, so you'd get off the app. They said, hey,

2121
01:54:25,439 --> 01:54:27,199
we got to stop this. We need people on this app,

2122
01:54:27,239 --> 01:54:29,000
we need people addicted to this app. That's where they

2123
01:54:29,079 --> 01:54:31,239
for you tab comes in, and that's where they try

2124
01:54:31,279 --> 01:54:33,359
to go with the following. That's why they tried to

2125
01:54:33,399 --> 01:54:36,479
put in this most popular follow you're following rather than

2126
01:54:36,560 --> 01:54:39,399
recent because if nobody's tweeting, you're getting off the app.

2127
01:54:39,640 --> 01:54:41,680
But now they have endless scroll on all these apps,

2128
01:54:41,680 --> 01:54:42,600
so you stay addicted.

2129
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:44,880
Speaker 13: But no one's going to win the court cases because

2130
01:54:44,920 --> 01:54:46,479
of the terms and conditions we signed on.

2131
01:54:46,640 --> 01:54:48,520
Speaker 2: We that now, but they can still get around that.

2132
01:54:48,600 --> 01:54:50,800
So no, they won the court case. I believe. I'll

2133
01:54:50,800 --> 01:54:54,680
go look it up so we can blame somebody for

2134
01:54:54,880 --> 01:54:58,840
our addiction to our phone engineered. Yeah there, Yeah, Meta

2135
01:54:58,880 --> 01:55:02,880
and YouTube found Neglige and Landmark Social Media. I'm not

2136
01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:04,800
going to pay New York Times. I'm just really not.

2137
01:55:06,119 --> 01:55:08,760
I appreciate I paid. We trust you, I mean with

2138
01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:13,439
a headline and jury found the company's harmed a young

2139
01:55:13,520 --> 01:55:15,680
user with design features that were addictive and led to

2140
01:55:15,720 --> 01:55:22,359
her mental health distress. It's all of us, no matter

2141
01:55:22,359 --> 01:55:27,439
what age, demographic, color, race, Absolutely, it's all of us

2142
01:55:28,039 --> 01:55:30,520
trying to get better. Went out of the woods this weekend,

2143
01:55:31,239 --> 01:55:34,800
went out in nature, stayed off my phone, caught up

2144
01:55:34,800 --> 01:55:36,840
on all I watched the Rockets game. When I got home,

2145
01:55:36,880 --> 01:55:38,840
watch a lot of astros and when I got home.

2146
01:55:39,319 --> 01:55:40,760
The only time I'm on my phone is when I'm

2147
01:55:40,760 --> 01:55:42,479
at the casino because I can't be on my phone.

2148
01:55:42,920 --> 01:55:46,920
That's true. So maybe blackjack is a good cathartic way

2149
01:55:46,920 --> 01:55:50,640
to get off your phone. It's bad dopamine where we're

2150
01:55:50,640 --> 01:55:54,600
all chasing. Let's talk to Jay in downtown at twelve

2151
01:55:54,600 --> 01:56:00,000
fifty five. Jay, good afternoon to you.

2152
01:56:00,399 --> 01:56:05,479
Speaker 6: Hello, Okay, yeah, hey, so I have a couple of

2153
01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:07,399
different things we talked about. I am one of those

2154
01:56:07,439 --> 01:56:10,960
guys that actually listened to the game on my heads

2155
01:56:10,960 --> 01:56:14,159
that while I'm at the game, the lady is it's

2156
01:56:14,199 --> 01:56:18,359
a little annoying, but it's nice to hear all the

2157
01:56:18,439 --> 01:56:21,000
stats and oh this is like the fifth pay or

2158
01:56:21,479 --> 01:56:24,760
our three bays two away from three thousand or something

2159
01:56:24,800 --> 01:56:25,159
like that.

2160
01:56:25,319 --> 01:56:25,800
Speaker 2: Excellent.

2161
01:56:28,079 --> 01:56:32,199
Speaker 6: Now you're talking about you want to see coaching, the

2162
01:56:32,239 --> 01:56:35,399
one that really got my ears pert and I was like,

2163
01:56:35,880 --> 01:56:39,199
it's not really gonna happen with Kange Smith. I would

2164
01:56:39,199 --> 01:56:41,359
love to see Kane Smith if they keep it in house,

2165
01:56:41,560 --> 01:56:46,800
that would have been awesome. Now with a rocket, I

2166
01:56:46,840 --> 01:56:51,439
saw the report yesterday that coach was like, Hey, we're

2167
01:56:51,479 --> 01:56:54,720
not focused about this year this year, We're just focused

2168
01:56:54,800 --> 01:56:57,560
on that year. I am not a fan of that.

2169
01:56:57,920 --> 01:57:00,399
I want I want this year back then that time,

2170
01:57:00,439 --> 01:57:05,680
I invested into this and I decided a couple of

2171
01:57:05,680 --> 01:57:08,640
your co workers got us really pumped about this year,

2172
01:57:08,760 --> 01:57:11,119
and then I mean, it's not our fault that the

2173
01:57:11,199 --> 01:57:14,039
injuries happened, but it's like, dude, what the heck.

2174
01:57:15,319 --> 01:57:17,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think if anything anything they would have done Jay,

2175
01:57:18,600 --> 01:57:21,840
it wouldn't have gotten them better than probably the Thunder

2176
01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:23,479
or the Spurs. If they had to shuffled a bunch

2177
01:57:23,479 --> 01:57:25,840
of stuff around and gotten a better point guard, I

2178
01:57:26,079 --> 01:57:27,760
don't think that would have been like, Okay, all of

2179
01:57:27,800 --> 01:57:30,560
a sudden, we are going to win the NBA Championship.

2180
01:57:30,640 --> 01:57:33,920
By the way, that quote largely taken out of context.

2181
01:57:34,039 --> 01:57:35,760
I did a little due diligence on it. Do you

2182
01:57:35,840 --> 01:57:38,760
really think an NBA head coach JA would go to

2183
01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:40,600
a member of the media and say we're giving up

2184
01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:43,479
on this year when you are Kevin Duran, You're about

2185
01:57:43,479 --> 01:57:46,159
to win forty eight to fifty games. That was That

2186
01:57:46,239 --> 01:57:48,359
was poor journalism.

2187
01:57:49,079 --> 01:57:51,159
Speaker 6: So I was on the other side of the bar

2188
01:57:51,279 --> 01:57:54,159
of shining to serve people. So it was a power read.

2189
01:57:54,560 --> 01:57:57,439
Speaker 2: Sure, I understand that you're a bartender.

2190
01:57:57,079 --> 01:58:03,640
Speaker 6: And yes, where do you work? Uh netbar? Okay, excellent,

2191
01:58:03,760 --> 01:58:09,319
I'm I'm you and Ross you are a couple of times.

2192
01:58:09,359 --> 01:58:11,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know you are. You're a good dude.

2193
01:58:11,359 --> 01:58:11,920
We like you.

2194
01:58:12,359 --> 01:58:15,319
Speaker 6: I kind of wanted to go by Brad Burner chout

2195
01:58:15,359 --> 01:58:17,079
today on this call in, but I.

2196
01:58:17,079 --> 01:58:19,640
Speaker 2: Was no, you can't do that. You can't do that.

2197
01:58:20,039 --> 01:58:21,600
You're off today. Are you working tonight?

2198
01:58:22,800 --> 01:58:24,720
Speaker 6: I am off today. I'm actually going to the game

2199
01:58:24,760 --> 01:58:28,479
again today. And then ties into I tagged you and

2200
01:58:28,560 --> 01:58:32,640
the post yesterday. I was at the game yesterday and

2201
01:58:32,760 --> 01:58:34,680
the bottom of the second ash Us put up the

2202
01:58:34,680 --> 01:58:37,920
fore run inning. I looked over at session one to

2203
01:58:38,079 --> 01:58:42,000
be one the old king Such corner and what do

2204
01:58:42,159 --> 01:58:42,600
I see?

2205
01:58:42,920 --> 01:58:43,359
Speaker 2: The wave?

2206
01:58:44,039 --> 01:58:49,199
Speaker 6: The wave, the waves, It's ridiculous. In the bottom of

2207
01:58:49,199 --> 01:58:51,159
the second Yeah.

2208
01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:55,039
Speaker 2: Jay, thank yeah, Jay, go ahead. No, I'm just gonna

2209
01:58:55,039 --> 01:58:56,800
say I I got to get to the top of

2210
01:58:56,800 --> 01:58:59,439
the hour break. I appreciate you calling in. Thank you.

2211
01:59:02,680 --> 01:59:06,880
We're never gonna learn. We're just not gonna better. I

2212
01:59:06,880 --> 01:59:09,279
think it's getting better thanks to wave busters. Ho you.

2213
01:59:09,359 --> 01:59:11,000
By the way, if you really want to follow a

2214
01:59:11,039 --> 01:59:12,880
Twitter account, if you don't want to follow me, I

2215
01:59:12,960 --> 01:59:16,520
get it. But if you're anti wave wavebusters, ho use

2216
01:59:16,560 --> 01:59:20,760
your friend. We out people politely, but we out them.

2217
01:59:21,439 --> 01:59:24,680
And again, ninety percent of the people, maybe close to

2218
01:59:24,720 --> 01:59:26,640
ninety five percent of people that like the wave don't

2219
01:59:26,640 --> 01:59:31,159
care about baseball. They usually wear jeorts, they probably have

2220
01:59:31,239 --> 01:59:33,520
a mullet, they got to pack of cigarettes and their

2221
01:59:33,600 --> 01:59:38,920
upper left shoulder, and they have no issues with trying

2222
01:59:38,960 --> 01:59:42,359
to become bigger than the game. Don't let baseball, don't

2223
01:59:42,439 --> 01:59:45,159
let yourself become bigger than the game. But yeah, that

2224
01:59:45,199 --> 01:59:48,479
still happens, and it makes me sad. Sorry, Matt, I'm

2225
01:59:48,520 --> 01:59:52,239
gonna check the old wave Buster's hou account. Wavebuster's hou

2226
01:59:52,399 --> 01:59:54,960
is the Twitter account. Okay, I think I was close

2227
01:59:55,000 --> 01:59:56,399
to fifteen hundred. Let me see where I am on

2228
01:59:56,479 --> 02:00:00,439
the follower count here. It is my burner, by the way,

2229
02:00:01,359 --> 02:00:05,720
one thousand, forty six. Great, all right, everybody, right Now,

2230
02:00:05,800 --> 02:00:08,239
if you're wassing a sign on my voice, I want

2231
02:00:08,279 --> 02:00:12,359
you to follow three accounts at sports rv mm hmmm,

2232
02:00:12,840 --> 02:00:20,000

2233
02:00:20,039 --> 02:00:22,439
get into a nice good number so can spread the word.

2234
02:00:22,840 --> 02:00:25,279
One thousand forty six ain't bad. I'm good. We get

2235
02:00:25,279 --> 02:00:28,760
a little higher. The wave must stop. And the problem

2236
02:00:28,840 --> 02:00:30,039
is the wave is only going to get worse come

2237
02:00:30,079 --> 02:00:31,840
summertime with all those kids are gonna be out there,

2238
02:00:33,399 --> 02:00:35,560
all these kids enjoy themselves at the games. The worst,

2239
02:00:35,680 --> 02:00:38,840
it is the worst. All right, one o'clock Sports Talk

2240
02:00:38,920 --> 02:00:41,640
seven ninety with a reminder, we've got Missing You coming up,

2241
02:00:41,640 --> 02:00:44,960

2247
02:00:57,640 --> 02:01:02,600
or not. Highly googlable today, and it's about the UFL

2248
02:01:02,800 --> 02:01:06,479
at one fifty here on Sports Talk seven NINTI is

2249
02:01:06,520 --> 02:01:16,760
the Matt Thomas Show with Ross one o five on

2250
02:01:16,880 --> 02:01:19,840
Sports Talk SEVENANTI I was definitely afraid. Rossie. We were

2251
02:01:19,840 --> 02:01:22,359
gonna do a AO to open up the show today.

2252
02:01:22,359 --> 02:01:24,399
We didn't have to do that because the Astros bounced

2253
02:01:24,399 --> 02:01:28,439
back with two victories over the weekend. Bounce back twice. Yeah,

2254
02:01:28,560 --> 02:01:31,479
come from the behind after well, first of all of

2255
02:01:31,479 --> 02:01:33,760
it being down huge on Saturday and then Sunday getting

2256
02:01:33,800 --> 02:01:35,000
up to a big lead and then giving it that

2257
02:01:35,079 --> 02:01:37,760
up and then eventually coming back to win the contests.

2258
02:01:37,800 --> 02:01:42,119
So yeah, uh could have been a disaster. Well, put

2259
02:01:42,119 --> 02:01:44,399
it this way, when the Yankees came in and swept you,

2260
02:01:44,520 --> 02:01:46,199
it was up two or three years ago. That was

2261
02:01:46,279 --> 02:01:49,439
the Yankees. You can't have the sucking ass Angels doing it.

2262
02:01:49,439 --> 02:01:51,359
It was a four game sweep. Winn't it too? Yes?

2267
02:02:12,439 --> 02:02:16,279
a staple. It's like the tradition. Yeah, I mean trying

2268
02:02:16,319 --> 02:02:18,520
to cheesy and cliche, but it's tradition. No, it's a

02:04:02,359 --> 02:04:06,159
to the astros website. Okay, what do you want? Qualified

2296
02:04:06,159 --> 02:04:08,239

02:04:08,439 --> 02:04:15,000
how about Christian Vasquez? Excellent? By the way, porches ourselves

2298
02:04:15,039 --> 02:04:17,760
are cleared waivers and like nobody want you? I go

2299
02:04:17,800 --> 02:04:21,439
back to yeah, exactly, how does Space Cowboys do this weekend?

2300
02:04:23,920 --> 02:04:32,119
Now start? But when they do games? Now we're wait,

2301
02:04:32,159 --> 02:04:36,000
as are we getting a massage going over astro stats? Hello, Matthew?

2302
02:04:37,239 --> 02:04:40,079
Now they now do e ra as We're doing well,

2303
02:04:40,079 --> 02:04:43,960
it's too based on balls, say positive, hold hold on.

2304
02:04:44,359 --> 02:04:47,359
Jose has drawn five walks in four games. There is

2305
02:04:47,399 --> 02:04:50,319
not a better percentage in the history of his major

2306
02:04:50,399 --> 02:04:52,880
league career. Probably the five walks in four games. That

2307
02:04:52,920 --> 02:04:59,119
sounds great. Albarez five walks four games, awesome? Cam Smith,

2308
02:04:59,319 --> 02:05:03,319
I'm getting slip three walks okay, sorry, bumping up, change

02:05:10,439 --> 02:05:17,239
Diez Isak Prettz, Cam Smith all with five strikeouts, Altuve Matthews.

2311
02:05:17,560 --> 02:05:20,800
Bryce Matthews has four k's in two games. Yeesh, it's

2312
02:05:20,920 --> 02:05:26,760
not good. Three ks for Alvarez, three for low Berfeito,

2313
02:05:26,840 --> 02:05:29,560
two for Carlos Korea. Are we done with the Astros

2314
02:05:29,640 --> 02:05:33,920
hitting numbers? I guess so let's do pitching numbers. Jonathan.

2315
02:05:34,079 --> 02:05:35,439
I wish you and I could go back on the

2316
02:05:35,479 --> 02:05:37,920
time machine and we can go in the Soul trained

2317
02:05:37,960 --> 02:05:41,279
dance line in nineteen seventy four. Oh my god, Jonathan,

2318
02:05:41,319 --> 02:05:46,119
we'd have such a good time. All Right, here we go.

2319
02:05:47,640 --> 02:05:49,600
Now we're going to the pitch. Shut that down. Yeah,

2320
02:05:49,600 --> 02:05:52,319
he's like, I'm not going to that. I said, see

2321
02:05:52,359 --> 02:05:59,920
you later, all right. Leading the Astros ERI with zero okay?

2322
02:06:00,079 --> 02:06:02,439
Is Hunter Brown love it?

2323
02:06:04,239 --> 02:06:04,600
Speaker 6: Next?

2324
02:06:04,920 --> 02:06:12,039
Speaker 2: AJ? Blue Ball two point zero eight. Let's go next.

2325
02:06:12,079 --> 02:06:15,600
I like blue Ball, by the way, friend of the show. Yes,

2326
02:06:16,159 --> 02:06:18,159
I'll bet you we get him tomorrow. Old sol is

2327
02:06:18,239 --> 02:06:20,199
just a gun on that one. That's a good guess.

2328
02:06:20,239 --> 02:06:21,800
That's a good guess. Right, well, he might be on

2329
02:06:21,800 --> 02:06:26,199
the eighteen Mike Burrows third Lois era and the Astros

2330
02:06:27,439 --> 02:06:35,199
seven point nine to four. Christian Hobbyer eleven point five

2331
02:06:35,239 --> 02:06:42,439
to seven. Oh God, that the hell happened. It's not great.

2332
02:06:44,000 --> 02:06:47,960
The other guys are not showing up here, so I

2333
02:06:47,960 --> 02:06:49,720
don't think you can put an infinite on some of these.

2334
02:06:51,239 --> 02:06:55,840
There's not an infinity symbol. I don't think No, who Oka,

2335
02:06:55,840 --> 02:06:59,359
who do you want? Brian king Go. He's listed by

2336
02:06:59,359 --> 02:07:01,159
the way as the close they are on Baseball Reference

2337
02:07:01,640 --> 02:07:04,000

I mean well, actually he was shay okay e R

2343
02:07:26,800 --> 02:07:31,039
what this is why ERA is misleading Era. But he

2344
02:07:31,079 --> 02:07:32,640
was shaky when he first came in, but then he

2345
02:07:32,640 --> 02:07:38,640
got some outs. Christian raw six point seventy five, Ry

2346
02:07:38,960 --> 02:07:42,159
Christian row Memorial High School kid, Ryan Weis's Friend of

2347
02:07:42,199 --> 02:07:46,079
the show nine. Yeah, he was early. He did not

2348
02:07:46,119 --> 02:07:49,000
start his career. He gave he gave up like a

2349
02:07:49,079 --> 02:07:51,640
home run run lay. But then he got three outs, Hey,

2350
02:07:52,000 --> 02:07:56,279
three out of four am bad? We go in the

2351
02:07:56,279 --> 02:07:58,039
back on the soul tray in nineteen seventy four. No,

2352
02:07:58,079 --> 02:07:59,840
I'm good, all right? Oh wait to give up another hit?

2353

02:10:51,520 --> 02:10:54,199
to write one. I think it's gonna be here. We

2400
02:10:54,239 --> 02:10:57,520

2406
02:11:38,880 --> 02:11:48,760

2407
02:11:48,760 --> 02:11:51,399
when Ross is lying to himself and our audience, he

2408
02:11:51,520 --> 02:11:54,640
just starts to endlessly laugh. He's not a good poker faces.

2409
02:11:54,760 --> 02:11:57,520
Huh exactly. Yeah.

2410
02:11:57,600 --> 02:11:57,640
Speaker 11: No.

2411
02:11:57,720 --> 02:11:59,319
Speaker 2: When I play poker, I just stare at the middle

2412
02:11:59,319 --> 02:12:01,680
of the felt and I don't talk. That's easier. So

2413
02:12:01,800 --> 02:12:05,479
during actual poker, I can be fine. Just just stare

2414
02:12:05,479 --> 02:12:06,960
at a spot in the middle of the felt. Whether

2415
02:12:07,000 --> 02:12:10,000

2416
02:12:10,159 --> 02:12:11,399
seven ninety good afternoon.

2417
02:12:13,960 --> 02:12:14,560
Speaker 11: You can hear me.

2418
02:12:15,199 --> 02:12:20,800
Speaker 12: Yes, Okay. The Rockets, did they go from a two

2419
02:12:20,960 --> 02:12:22,199
seed to a number six?

2420
02:12:23,560 --> 02:12:25,880
Speaker 2: Uh? They have in the last They were never number two,

2421
02:12:25,920 --> 02:12:28,239
they were number three. That dropped to September two for

2422
02:12:28,239 --> 02:12:30,319
a little while here and there, I think, but that's

2423
02:12:30,359 --> 02:12:32,000
been a while, long time, long time.

2424
02:12:33,359 --> 02:12:36,199
Speaker 12: Okay, So now we can't beat the Spurs, and now

2425
02:12:36,279 --> 02:12:40,439
we can't beat the Lakers. So once they get bounced

2426
02:12:40,479 --> 02:12:47,520
in the first round, emy Odoki or Doka, Ristina is going.

2427
02:12:48,319 --> 02:12:49,159
Speaker 2: Not having.

2428
02:12:50,560 --> 02:12:52,000
Speaker 12: Yeah, Rattina is going fire.

2429
02:12:52,279 --> 02:12:56,159
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Jay, listen to me very carefully. There is

2430
02:12:56,239 --> 02:13:00,720
a zero percent chance Emai Doka gets fired this year,

2431
02:13:01,800 --> 02:13:11,159
zero round, zero percent chance. Believe it zero We'll.

2432
02:13:11,000 --> 02:13:13,039
Speaker 12: See no no, no, no, no, no, no no.

2433
02:13:12,840 --> 02:13:17,079
Speaker 2: No no, there's no will see believe it zero percent chance.

2434
02:13:18,560 --> 02:13:25,199
All right, Okay, this is noster common common This is

2435
02:13:25,239 --> 02:13:27,239
this is not even your common sense. This is common

2436
02:13:27,239 --> 02:13:28,880
sense kicking in here. This is not me making a

2437
02:13:28,880 --> 02:13:31,039
prison sign an extension. This it would cost a lot

2438
02:13:31,079 --> 02:13:33,479
of money to get rid of him, and they had injuries.

2439
02:13:34,720 --> 02:13:42,600
Zero percent chance. Believe it. I believe, Thank you very much.

2440
02:13:42,640 --> 02:13:46,760
Trust me when I say these things, eat as ross.

2441
02:13:46,760 --> 02:13:50,199
He didn't say the same thing. Zero percent chance. I

2442
02:13:50,279 --> 02:13:52,279
never like to say zero in life. So I'm bout

2443
02:13:52,319 --> 02:13:56,079
two one percent. I'm going zero. Will on seven Nati

2444
02:13:56,159 --> 02:13:59,319
at one twenty three. Hello will Hey.

2445
02:13:59,079 --> 02:14:01,640
Speaker 3: Man, I agree with you Europe present chance he'll be fired.

2446
02:14:02,880 --> 02:14:05,239
Second thing, I got a question about Tugler. Is he

2447
02:14:05,319 --> 02:14:06,119
coming out this year?

2448
02:14:06,560 --> 02:14:09,239
Speaker 2: I hope not. He needs to stay.

2449
02:14:09,840 --> 02:14:10,079
Speaker 9: Man.

2450
02:14:10,159 --> 02:14:12,159
Speaker 3: I tell you what I kid remind me of Beach

2451
02:14:12,159 --> 02:14:13,119
stew from Detroit.

2452
02:14:14,199 --> 02:14:17,800
Speaker 2: Oh you think what you think? He's Isaiah Stewart. Wow,

2453
02:14:17,880 --> 02:14:19,199
that's that's high praise.

2454
02:14:20,680 --> 02:14:23,439
Speaker 3: I'm telling you that kid. I will take that kid

2455
02:14:23,479 --> 02:14:25,000
on this team at this time.

2456
02:14:25,720 --> 02:14:30,000
Speaker 2: Here's the problem. He's got energy. Here's the problem. He's

2457
02:14:30,039 --> 02:14:32,399
got two problems going against it. One, he does not

2458
02:14:32,520 --> 02:14:35,359
have much range, which doesn't necessarily mean you have to.

2459
02:14:35,439 --> 02:14:37,159
You can be in the NBA and have limited range.

2460
02:14:37,840 --> 02:14:40,960
He just is so foul prone, and that's it's not

2461
02:14:41,000 --> 02:14:43,479
gotten any better. And I love Jojo, and he's been

2462
02:14:43,640 --> 02:14:47,000
so enriched in this program, and he has everything that

2463
02:14:47,039 --> 02:14:50,319
you want from a big man, the wingspan, the athleticism,

2464
02:14:51,079 --> 02:14:53,159
but he just doesn't have much of an outside shot,

2465
02:14:53,399 --> 02:14:56,239
and the foul troubles have just haunted him his entire

2466
02:14:56,319 --> 02:14:57,000
college career.

2467
02:14:58,079 --> 02:15:01,079
Speaker 5: But I just wanted put the bench, just wanting for

2468
02:15:01,199 --> 02:15:03,319
the bitch you mean, like to sort doesn't have any

2469
02:15:03,359 --> 02:15:04,439
outside either.

2470
02:15:04,800 --> 02:15:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, but but Isaiah Stewart can stay on the floor

2471
02:15:06,640 --> 02:15:07,760
for thirty minutes at a time.

2472
02:15:08,640 --> 02:15:11,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, But I think Tugler, I think tug would be

2473
02:15:11,159 --> 02:15:11,560
a good fit.

2474
02:15:11,720 --> 02:15:12,880
Speaker 2: Second point, Yes, sir.

2475
02:15:14,000 --> 02:15:18,000
Speaker 3: Late in the season baseball Astro's got two aces in home.

2476
02:15:19,720 --> 02:15:22,520
Speaker 5: They say that they run into problems, may not make

2477
02:15:22,520 --> 02:15:26,600
the playoffs. They can deal parades and they could deal Walker.

2478
02:15:27,439 --> 02:15:28,920
What would you get in return for him?

2479
02:15:30,880 --> 02:15:33,720
Speaker 2: Uh? Well, first of all, if you if you trade Walker,

2480
02:15:33,760 --> 02:15:35,520
you're gonna pick up some of his salary. You don't

2481
02:15:35,560 --> 02:15:40,199
have to worry about that with Paradis. Yes, no Christian.

2482
02:15:40,479 --> 02:15:42,560
If Christian Walker gets moved to the Astros are paying

2483
02:15:42,560 --> 02:15:46,239
some of that salary. Okay, now the different Now, another

2484
02:15:46,279 --> 02:15:47,760
issue in the con under me have is if you're

2485
02:15:47,760 --> 02:15:50,119
paying for salary, then you're gonna want better prospects in return.

2486
02:15:50,600 --> 02:15:53,199
Then look, I think I don't. I think Dan's gonna

2487
02:15:53,199 --> 02:15:55,760
want a haul for Esach. You may not have to

2488
02:15:55,760 --> 02:15:59,319
worry about a hall for Christian Walker. But again, uh,

2489
02:15:59,359 --> 02:16:01,880
those names will we brought if the if things turn south,

2490
02:16:01,880 --> 02:16:04,199
well they they will throw out all those names. Everybody

2491
02:16:04,239 --> 02:16:06,039
will be up for grabs that the Astros do not

2492
02:16:06,079 --> 02:16:07,600
succeed this year, and that includes break you.

2493
02:16:08,119 --> 02:16:10,279
Speaker 5: If I'm Astros, I'm gonna go to Boston and I'm

2494
02:16:10,279 --> 02:16:13,079
asked for cassas the big first basement.

2495
02:16:16,159 --> 02:16:17,760
Speaker 2: I don't know how he's doing, and I don't. I don't.

2496
02:16:17,760 --> 02:16:19,159
I don't know it does. His name doesn't ring a

2497
02:16:19,199 --> 02:16:20,880
bell to me. What's this? Are you sure it's that's

2498
02:16:20,920 --> 02:16:22,720
his name? Yes?

2499
02:16:23,680 --> 02:16:23,920
Speaker 3: Better?

2500
02:16:25,960 --> 02:16:27,479
Speaker 4: All right, check him out.

2501
02:16:29,000 --> 02:16:31,640

02:16:31,680 --> 02:16:34,280

two forty one, twenty twenty three, two sixty three, twenty

2505
02:16:45,559 --> 02:16:47,399
twenty two, one ninety seven. Why do I want? That

2506
02:16:48,520 --> 02:16:50,920
sounds great? No, it doesn't doesn't sound good at all.

2507
02:16:51,760 --> 02:17:03,040

saying he's gonna go and throw a perfect game. It'd

2590
02:22:33,319 --> 02:22:35,879
be nice we did roof closed. By the way, we

2591
02:22:35,920 --> 02:22:37,600
need to stop talking about the roof. It's gonna be

2592
02:22:37,600 --> 02:22:39,879
closed the rest of the year. Nobody wants it. You

2593
02:22:39,920 --> 02:22:43,239
guys want to open. The players and the managers don't. No,

2594
02:22:43,559 --> 02:22:46,319
Don't's terrible, but it is what it is. It's that

2595
02:22:46,399 --> 02:22:48,120

2599
02:22:59,639 --> 02:23:01,719
they don't. They don't want the roof open. The last

2600
02:23:01,719 --> 02:23:04,239
time the roof was opened, ross, wasn't it because Manas

2601
02:23:04,280 --> 02:23:06,600
League Baseball mandated during the World Series. The World Series.

2602
02:23:06,680 --> 02:23:08,879
That's so, I mean, that's that's what's gonna happen. You

2607
02:23:27,360 --> 02:23:33,959
Series and Jim Crane's already called Rob Manfred and said, uh, sorry,

2608
02:23:33,959 --> 02:23:36,200

2609
02:23:37,120 --> 02:23:42,959
Let's talk to U Vince in midtown. Hello, Vince, Hey, guys.

2610
02:23:42,680 --> 02:23:47,680
Speaker 11: How y'all doing good? Hey, real quick, before I get

2611
02:23:47,799 --> 02:23:50,239
my main point, I had a dream this morning that

2612
02:23:50,319 --> 02:23:53,760
I called in the show, and uh, you guys accepted

2613
02:23:53,840 --> 02:23:55,920
my call and I start talking, but like the words

2614
02:23:55,920 --> 02:23:59,239
aren't coming out very well. You guys cut straight to commercial.

2615
02:23:59,520 --> 02:24:01,639
Speaker 2: It's like, well, it's funny because I had a dream

2616
02:24:01,680 --> 02:24:03,559
last night too that didn't involve this radio station.

2617
02:24:03,680 --> 02:24:03,840
Speaker 3: Vince.

2618
02:24:03,879 --> 02:24:05,200
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna be brutally honest with you.

2619
02:24:07,760 --> 02:24:09,879
Speaker 11: Okay, Hey, so I have an early gut feelings. I'm

2620
02:24:09,879 --> 02:24:11,000
not gonna get to call in tomorrow.

2621
02:24:11,159 --> 02:24:11,440
Speaker 2: All right.

2622
02:24:11,559 --> 02:24:14,440
Speaker 11: First, I wanted this double check Flemings and Senac.

2623
02:24:14,559 --> 02:24:16,600
Speaker 3: They have not committed one way or the other.

2624
02:24:16,799 --> 02:24:19,639
Speaker 2: That is correct. It's this season still, I mean no,

2625
02:24:19,680 --> 02:24:22,319
they don't. There's there's a timeline, but it's not any

2626
02:24:22,680 --> 02:24:25,760
in the next thirty days or so. Okay.

2627
02:24:25,799 --> 02:24:27,959
Speaker 11: My gut feeling need is either one or boats will

2628
02:24:27,959 --> 02:24:28,360
come back.

2629
02:24:29,120 --> 02:24:31,479
Speaker 2: Okay, there is zero chance Flumbings comes back.

2630
02:24:31,840 --> 02:24:32,200
Speaker 3: Senac.

2631
02:24:32,479 --> 02:24:36,159
Speaker 2: Maybe if the money is right, But I I think

2632
02:24:36,159 --> 02:24:38,239
that's I would put that at about twenty five percent.

2633
02:24:38,280 --> 02:24:40,399
But again, these are kids that could change her mind.

2634
02:24:40,399 --> 02:24:42,440
But Kingson Flummings is gonna be a top seven selection

2635
02:24:42,440 --> 02:24:44,440
in the NBA draft. He would he needs to go on.

2636
02:24:44,760 --> 02:24:47,959
Speaker 11: It is what it is, all right, all right, thanks

2637
02:24:48,000 --> 02:24:48,559
for taking.

2638
02:24:48,360 --> 02:24:50,239
Speaker 2: Go I know, and by the way, thanks for dreaming

2639
02:24:50,239 --> 02:24:51,680
of us. But Vince, it means a lot to us.

2640
02:24:51,920 --> 02:24:53,479
It's beautiful. I don't know. It's kind of weird, but

2641
02:24:53,479 --> 02:24:54,719

2642
02:24:54,719 --> 02:24:56,360
