ass up today at eleven thirty. We are out at

56

eleven fifty five because the Astros are going to take

57
00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:46,599
on I'm gonna guess the Marlins went in doubt to

58
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,960
Marlins and Nationals or somebody else like that. The Marlins

59
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:53,560
is correct at the Marlins. Oh, it's at the Marlins.

60
00:02:53,599 --> 00:02:56,680
That's you have to uh forget about the spring training

61
00:02:56,719 --> 00:02:57,599
records at that point.

62
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 3: Next game home for the Senators.

63
00:02:59,439 --> 00:03:03,840

64
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:06,879
Speaker 3: That's not crazy at all. And whatever Nationals.

65
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 2: All right, Uh, let me just give you everything that's

66
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,159

68
00:03:15,199 --> 00:03:18,879
I don't because they're for there for your use. No

69
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,120
stealing extras maybe, but not not stealing. Rockets beat the Raptors.

70
00:03:24,319 --> 00:03:25,840
The tissues are for there for your use. But you

71
00:03:25,879 --> 00:03:27,800
take a box from every place, you're stealing them.

72
00:03:28,039 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 3: No, I don't steal tissues. Okay, you just use a few.

73
00:03:31,719 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: Maybe Rockets beat the Raptors. Rockets play the Nuggets tonight. Yes,

74
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,599
we have Bam out of Bio scoring eighty three points.

75
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:42,759
Oh my, Gosha is split on this big time split

76
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:47,719
split split. We have what the hell happened at Dykin

77
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:53,120
Park yesterday? Italy beat the United States? Yes, even when

78
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:56,400
I started filing embrace the WBC that our American team

79
00:03:56,479 --> 00:03:56,960

80
00:03:56,879 --> 00:04:03,199
Speaker 3: Down, h Josh had. Some people are blaming you.

00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do that, Matt, But wow, what would

82
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,120
I What could I have possibly have done?

83
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,159
Speaker 3: You mean to embrace America? Great?

84
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: This greatest country we live in, with the greatest state

85
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,439
of the country, you know, the greatest state in our union,

86
00:04:13,479 --> 00:04:14,280
of course, Texas.

87
00:04:14,319 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 3: That's the reason why I represented as well as Thenzo

88
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:20,319
and the boys. Oh Zecha Descenzo.

89
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 2: Hey, we beat the tim USA.

90
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 3: And now the manage you Pablo Pricioni, he's from Marcatini.

91
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,079
Not that we stereotype on this show. We don't. It's

92
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:35,600
one of our show.

93
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:41,959
Speaker 2: We would do this, we would the past that. As

94
00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:44,240
somebody pointed out, a lot of these guys, almost all

95
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:49,279
the whole team is American born. It's basically like the

96
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:54,439
American Sea Squad beat America. Oh, we need some more

97
00:04:54,519 --> 00:04:55,800
Neil diamonna get us fired up?

98
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 3: No, no, we didn't have. Nobody's there.

99
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 2: Nobody needs to answer yes to the question do we

100
00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:03,319
need some more Neil Diamond? America loves Neil Diamond America

101
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,720
trade Yeah, yeah, octogenarians. Okay, So here's the problem. He's

102
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:08,199
popular in the retirement castle.

103
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 3: So now we are.

104
00:05:09,639 --> 00:05:12,319
Speaker 2: We're gonna have to watch the other game today to

105
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,079
see what's going on, to see if the US gets eliminated.

106
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 3: Because the run differential or whatever, it's out of our hands. Ross.

107
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,079
How can we live America without our w PC do

108
00:05:24,399 --> 00:05:26,000
going on to the dot? How can they be three

109
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,319
and one and not eligible?

110
00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, it happens. Probably should have done some

111
00:05:31,519 --> 00:05:33,560
more homework on the w Yes, I should have.

112
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,199
Speaker 3: That's no. I'm putting myself on the best some for

113
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:36,639
that one.

114
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: Um so I guess because Brazil is so horrible. Brazil's

115
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,680
owned four and great in Britain's one and three, so

116
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:46,360
you can end up.

117
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,519
Speaker 3: With three three and one teams. Mm hmm.

118
00:05:49,879 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: Tiebreakers do count. It's like you know, it happens all

119
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,160
the time in the volleyball competitive world. My friend, I'm

120
00:05:55,199 --> 00:05:55,879
used to this things.

121
00:05:56,079 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, we have some Josh.

122
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 2: We have a Josh hater up to get to today

123
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,920
on the show Lovely we have the Texans overhauling their

124
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:10,319
punting game, I guess, okay, and making Kymie fairbir I

125
00:06:10,319 --> 00:06:12,480
remember when Kymie Ferber was like a top five paid

126
00:06:12,519 --> 00:06:14,480
kicker about five or six years ago, and people are like,

127
00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:17,160
what are you paying him? Got that crazy money? You're

128
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,000
paying him so much money. Now he's now the top

129
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:20,879
kicker in the NFL, and I guess for as big

130
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,240
of a part of an offense as he is for

131
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:22,680
the Texans.

132
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,519
Speaker 3: That's good, mon, He's meant right. Yeah, he's their MVP.

133
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,439
That is true. That is honestly the truth.

134
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,759
Speaker 2: All the signing of the off season, Yeah, Kymie Fairburn

135
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,560
might get in there, just don't put his whole name

136
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,519
in there. Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, cal McNair, no, no,

137
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,839
j wait, Bob's in there. Janis is Bob and Janis

138
00:06:43,879 --> 00:06:45,800
are in there, and yes, it's gonna be Kymie Fairburn. Well,

139
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,480
that's gonna take him like twenty five yards of field

140
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,680
right or the the space. Last candidate Kerry McNair not

141
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,000
gonna make it. I don't think Carry's getting in.

142
00:06:55,199 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 3: I don't think he is. I think Carry's invited to

143
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:57,720
Toro Town.

144
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,959
Speaker 2: It's gonna he's been excommunicated from Toro Toro district.

145
00:07:03,079 --> 00:07:04,959
Speaker 3: When you have Toro Town, you have all these spots.

146
00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:08,199
Speaker 2: I like using Toro district because it sounds so horrible

147
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:08,800
and dumb.

148
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,439
Speaker 3: Um. Yeah, I don't know if you.

149
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,720

00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,720
a nickname and it's terrible and you keep calling him

151
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,759
that nickname.

152
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,319

158
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,639

You blipped out for seconds. I'm sorry, so Bam.

166
00:08:00,759 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 2: Look, I didn't see any of it, obviously, because I

167
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,720
was calling the Rockets Raptors game and it wasn't on

168
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,199
national TV, because I'm assuming that Washington National or Washington versus.

169
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: Miami was not available except for those people in.

170
00:08:09,839 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: Those markets unless you were a like a Direct TV

171
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,199
NBA League Pass subscriber, and I wouldn't think that's not

172
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,120
even on the agenda.

173
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: It is a polarizing conversation.

174
00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:24,839
Speaker 2: With respected people I like in the basketball world, people

175
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:30,399
I do not respect in basketball. I've actually gone back

176
00:08:30,439 --> 00:08:32,840
and forth in my opinion about it, and I had

177
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,720
a pull question that had a really dominant result early on.

178
00:08:35,759 --> 00:08:37,480
It is such's changed since I put it out at

179
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:42,519
about one forty five this morning. I can be convinced

180
00:08:42,879 --> 00:08:46,840
of the other direction on this ross, but the general

181
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,440
setting philosophy I have about This is two things. Okay,

182
00:08:51,159 --> 00:08:55,919
one discorre eighty three points takes incredible athleticism. I mean

183
00:08:55,919 --> 00:08:58,759
you're just physically on the court shooting shots, free throws,

184
00:08:58,799 --> 00:09:05,840
three pointers, field goal. But it's still gimmicky, really gimmicky,

185
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,960
all the free throws. And on top of the fact

186
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,360
that Emadoka said it best last night after the game,

187
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,799
it's the Washington Wizards who are uber tankering. I mean,

188
00:09:16,879 --> 00:09:20,120
it's the Washington Wizards are the most embarrassing franchise in

189
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,120
the NBA and had been that way for about twenty years.

190
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,600
So if this was against even like a team like

191
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,679
Charlotte who's playing better, or maybe a Chicago or Minnesota,

192
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,639
maybe you give a little more credence to it.

193
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 3: But it's the it's the Wizard's ross and it's a

194
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:37,279
goof and they were shooting.

195
00:09:37,399 --> 00:09:38,879
Speaker 2: I mean, how do you go to the free throw

196
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,399
in forty three times in a game without it being

197
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,879
largely manufactured. I saw a video that had all the

198
00:09:45,879 --> 00:09:49,519
foul calls and they looked all pretty legit. There wasn't

199
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,159
a ton of foul bating. I mean there were some,

200
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,600
but I mean, if you're gonna get to the free

201
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,559
throw line that much, the Wizards were fouling him.

202
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,799
Speaker 3: And it's the Wizards things. I don't care about that either.

203
00:10:00,639 --> 00:10:03,519
Speaker 2: So what the Rockets played the Wizards like a week

204
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,519
and a half ago or whatever, they beat him by five.

205
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,360
The Rockets leading scorer in that Wizard's game was albrnsching

206
00:10:09,399 --> 00:10:12,600
Gun with thirty two. So he's fifty points off of

207
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,480
Bam out of Bio. So yeah, it's the Washington Wizards

208
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,039
and they're not good. But people are playing bad teams

209
00:10:18,039 --> 00:10:19,879
in the NBA every single night and they're not scoring

210
00:10:19,879 --> 00:10:22,279
eighty three points. So that to me is a bad

211
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,840
argument as far as trying to tear down the accomplishment.

212
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:28,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just.

213
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:33,039
Speaker 2: Gonna say it this, BAM's a good NBA scorer, but

214
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,440
he's never been considered an elite NBA scorer. Is that

215
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,559
fair to say? Yes, I mean Kobe putting up eighty one.

216
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,639
I mean Kobe's had sixty point games. Kobe's had fifty

217
00:10:42,639 --> 00:10:46,120
point games. I don't have the Bam numbers in.

218
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:48,399
Speaker 3: Front of it. But how many forty plus games.

219
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,759
Speaker 2: As Bam had his NBA career, I don't know, such

220
00:10:51,799 --> 00:10:54,600
a one off. That's the reason why to me, there's

221
00:10:54,639 --> 00:10:57,159
a little gimmicky to it. One of the craziest things

222
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,720
would be Corey Brewer's fifty point game against the Rockets.

223
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,679
Like Corey Brewer could go get out of nowhere getting fifty.

224
00:11:04,039 --> 00:11:06,879
This is like far surpassing that, because yeah, bam Adebayo

225
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,759
is not a scoring champion. You look, I mean Wilt

226
00:11:08,799 --> 00:11:11,240
Chamberlain was a scoring champion. He averaged fifty points a

227
00:11:11,279 --> 00:11:14,799
game that year that he scored one hundred. It makes sense.

228
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,480
That's what kind of makes this special to me. I

229
00:11:17,519 --> 00:11:19,440
think my initial reaction was to kind of try to

230
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,399
tear this down. And the one big counter argument would

231
00:11:22,399 --> 00:11:26,159
be that the the the heat were fouling the Wizards

232
00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:27,360
at the end of the game to try to get

233
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:28,159
banned the ball back.

234
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

235
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 2: So again, what I cannot answer because I'm all looking

236
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,279
at highlights, because obviously I was working the Rockets game

237
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:39,799
last night. Was there a concerted attempt to pad the numbers?

238
00:11:39,919 --> 00:11:41,559
And I don't think the answer can be known to

239
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,679
that there was a concerted effort to get him to

240
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:48,039
a higher number. He wasn't organically just killing it. So

241
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:53,639
I would lean rossy five this is the Wizards and

242
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:54,759
its stat padding.

243
00:11:54,799 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 3: But again I could be easily convinced the other direction.

244
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: This is special, This is an all time this is Look,

245
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,000
we talk about the Wizards, we can talk about whatever.

246
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:04,440
It's going into history books. I made the analogy last

247
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,440
night in the postgame, like you could talk about.

248
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: Cheating scant all you want.

249
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 2: You go to the history book and you look for

250
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,000
twenty seventeen World Series champion, it says Houston Astros there.

251
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:13,919
You look for the history book and you look for

252
00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:16,759
highest scoring game, it says bam Adebayo there.

253
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 3: And yeah, the fouling was crazy. That happened at the

254
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:20,279
end of.

255
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 2: The Wilt Chamberlain game where both sides were fouling a

256
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,799
bunch to where they got him to one hundred. So yeah,

257
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,519
if you want to go ahead and raise a stink

258
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,000
and say, well, Wilt Chamberlain shouldn't have one hundred points,

259
00:12:31,159 --> 00:12:33,279
and we could say that and that can be true.

260
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,879
The Kobe Bryant one was pretty legitimate, but they were

261
00:12:35,919 --> 00:12:37,759
just getting him the ball. He was shooting up against

262
00:12:37,759 --> 00:12:40,320
double and triple teams. I actually went on YouTube and

263
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,679
I watched the whole every basket scored by Kobe in

264
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,240
that game, just because I was curious, which, by the way,

265
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,840
if he took a if he had a step back

266
00:12:47,879 --> 00:12:49,360
on a couple of long tunes, he could have had

267
00:12:49,399 --> 00:12:54,879
eighty five. But anyways, I digress. So, yeah, it wasn't

268
00:12:54,879 --> 00:12:56,759
within the rhythm of the game. It's never in the

269
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,879
rhythm of a game for anyone to score eighty points ever, ever,

270
00:13:00,519 --> 00:13:02,159
unless you're hand of the ball to Reggie Miller and

271
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,960
he's every time the ball leaves his hands is going

272
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,919
to find unless it's the All Star Game. Yeah, and

273
00:13:08,159 --> 00:13:10,559
I think somebody brought up like Luca's seventy points game

274
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,159
was pretty well in the rhythm of the game. He

275
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:13,679
only took like I don't know, or it was like

276
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,480
thirty shots or something like that, and he was just

277
00:13:15,519 --> 00:13:18,240
on fire and made a bunch of threes. So by

278
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,200
like effective field goal percentage and stuff like that, Luca

279
00:13:21,399 --> 00:13:24,000
the Lucas seventy point game. But we're not looking at

280
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,639
effective field goal percentage. I understand we uh and I'm

281
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:29,440
talking about you, Matt, But just in general, we like

282
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,320
to tear day things down as soon as they happened.

283
00:13:31,399 --> 00:13:32,679
I was one of them. I was like, Oh, they're

284
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,000
fouling for it. But then I'm like, you know what

285
00:13:34,279 --> 00:13:36,759
they did? It in the Chamberlain game, and nobody's gonna

286
00:13:36,759 --> 00:13:39,080
score eight. Nobody's gonna be like, man, that was a smooth,

287
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,240
natural eighty point game. That's not gonna ever happen. Maybe

288
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,360
when you score above sixty five, it's gonna there's gonna

289
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,399
be a scent of gimmick game. Absolutely, you're gonna be

290
00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:50,679
You're gonna be pushing for more. You're gonna push for seventy.

291
00:13:50,759 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 3: I don't know.

292
00:13:51,159 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 2: I don't have video of David Thompson's seventy point game.

293
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,000
I don't know what he did in that one. But

294
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,519
but Kobe was absolutely forcing shots and jacking up shots

295
00:13:59,519 --> 00:14:02,600
over two and three defenders and bam Ade Bayo. They

296
00:14:02,639 --> 00:14:04,279
were trying to get him the points and he got

297
00:14:04,279 --> 00:14:07,159
there and there. Ever, the the Washington Wizards have played

298
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,240
sixty whatever games this year, and this is the first

299
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,120
guy to score eighty on him. This is to my knowledge,

300
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,200
it's the first guy to score seventy on them. Well,

301
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,000
it's the first time since six we got a number

302
00:14:16,039 --> 00:14:19,120
this high. I mean, it's been yeah, well kobea now Bam,

303
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:21,799
all right, pull question is up, Bam. Out of Bio's

304
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,000
eighty three points on Tuesday, it's on my Twitter account.

305
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,240
Wow just wow, or it was the Wizards meth fifty

306
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,799
five percent say it was the Wizard's Matt forty five

307
00:14:29,799 --> 00:14:33,200
percent say wow, just wow again it's up. Just just

308
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,519
just trying to figure it out. But it was only

309
00:14:35,559 --> 00:14:38,000
made things in the NBA very interesting. It did, for sure.

310
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,240

for that World Baseball Classic back underway tonight. If Mexico

319
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:09,320
beats Italy and Mexico scores five or more runs, US advances,

320
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:14,240
so does Italy. If Mexico scores four runs or less,

321
00:15:14,799 --> 00:15:20,320
US is not advanced. If Italy wins against Mexico, US advances.

322
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 3: So go Italy.

323
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,320

Speaker 1: Quickly brush up on what happened last night. I think

329
00:15:41,799 --> 00:15:45,360
both things can be true, where it was a historic

330
00:15:45,639 --> 00:15:49,000
game and at the same time kind of gammicky with

331
00:15:49,039 --> 00:15:51,120
forty six street throws against the Wizards, But at the

332
00:15:51,159 --> 00:15:53,639
same time, it's an NBA team. You got to play

333
00:15:53,639 --> 00:15:57,240
who's in front of you, I think or I fall

334
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,159
on it. It's always cool to witness sports history. I mean,

335
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,320
I'm a sicko. I have NBA League passed, but I

336
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,879
was watching the Rockets on the big screen and had

337
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,200
the Keet game on my phone, and once the Rockets

338
00:16:09,279 --> 00:16:11,440
kind of put it away, I just kind of focused

339
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,480
on the heat game and it was crazy. It was

340
00:16:13,519 --> 00:16:15,720
just free throw after free throw, and I thought they

341
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:17,799
were going to take him out before he reached Kobe's

342
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,559
but he's not Jason Tatum, so he doesn't care, so

343
00:16:20,639 --> 00:16:23,679
he passed them. I thought it was great. I thought

344
00:16:23,679 --> 00:16:25,679
it was you always fun to be part of history.

345
00:16:26,399 --> 00:16:28,120
I'd love to hear what you guys think about it

346
00:16:28,159 --> 00:16:30,759
and go off a great day, Go rockets, Thank.

347
00:16:30,559 --> 00:16:30,919
Speaker 3: You, Case.

348
00:16:31,159 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

349
00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 2: I again, it's not one of those arguments. Ross, I

350
00:16:34,879 --> 00:16:37,559
came with fire and brimstone with you today. I guess

351
00:16:37,559 --> 00:16:38,440
I can see both.

352
00:16:38,279 --> 00:16:38,679
Speaker 3: Sides of it.

353
00:16:38,799 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 2: Have a strong take, Matt, you have to be smarter

354
00:16:43,759 --> 00:16:48,360
than everyone else in the room. All right, No, that's okay, Matt.

355
00:16:48,399 --> 00:16:50,759
We're not on first take, so we're good. You can

356
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,320
you can be honest and fluid in your opinion, and

357
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,840
you don't have to just have an opinion and then

358
00:16:56,879 --> 00:16:59,320
burrow with it for the rest of your life because

359
00:16:59,360 --> 00:16:59,919
you're on TV.

360
00:17:00,159 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 3: So it's fine.

361
00:17:00,639 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: Really quick again, my thought is eighty three is that

362
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,279
is a physical achievement. It's hard to play NBA basketball,

363
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,079
run up and down the floor for as many minutes

364
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,559
to do it, and do what you do get eighty

365
00:17:10,559 --> 00:17:14,200
three points. Okay, that to me is incredible. It's hard

366
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,079
to score in the NBA.

367
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 3: It just is. But I do take points off of.

368
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 2: The big board for number of free throws. The way

369
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,240
it got kind of super gimmicky towards the end, and

370
00:17:26,559 --> 00:17:30,039
the opponent is again, I know it's an NBA team,

371
00:17:30,039 --> 00:17:32,000
but it's really Ross not on an NBA team. It's

372
00:17:32,039 --> 00:17:34,119
a team that is cannot wait for the season to

373
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,960
end and they are praying for any one of the

374
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,119
top five picks in the NBA draft. It's not an

375
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,119
NBA team, it's it's a G league team. Yeah, I mean, well,

376
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,880
the two thousand and six Raptors were terrible.

377
00:17:43,279 --> 00:17:44,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. That's true.

378
00:17:44,559 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 2: So I mean again, that one, to me is the

379
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,480
weakest counter argument. But the fouling, the fact that the

380
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,160
heat we're fouling to get banned the ball, that certainly

381
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,920
is the gimmicky part of it. Yeah, for sure. But again,

382
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:02,039
I watched this video. I just retweeted this video of

383
00:18:02,079 --> 00:18:04,440
all the fouls. There's a couple of soft fowls in there,

384
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,079
but for the most part, he was just driving to

385
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,880
the basket in getting hacked, so he had to go

386
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,480
to the free throw line. And of course he was

387
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,400
getting the ball more and going for it more because

388
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,359
he was chasing a record. And again I will say,

389
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,359
nobody scores eighty points without trying to chase a record,

390
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,640
without acting, without outside the rhythm of the game, the

391
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:25,640
regular rhythm of the game.

392
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,599
Speaker 3: Nobody naturally scores eighty or one hundred.

393
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 2: And the only thing I will say to put a

394
00:18:31,039 --> 00:18:34,039
PS on this is if it was this was like,

395
00:18:34,079 --> 00:18:36,039
if this was Jokic doing it, I could kind of

396
00:18:36,039 --> 00:18:38,359
see it. If this was SGA, who are known for

397
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:43,799
being elite. This was Tyrese Maxi BAM's nice score. But

398
00:18:44,319 --> 00:18:48,839
this is so out of norm for him, it's crazy.

399
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,960
Do we know what his career high was before this?

400
00:18:51,039 --> 00:18:52,119
He had never broken fifty?

401
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 3: Right?

402
00:18:53,039 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 4: Yeah?

403
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 2: I mean again, this is literally a one off for him.

404
00:18:56,039 --> 00:18:57,839
Right well, well, first of all, anybody's scoring any points

405
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,359
is a one off. But you get my dript on this.

406
00:19:01,559 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's been.

407
00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:04,759
Speaker 2: I mean, he's been in the defensive Player of the

408
00:19:04,839 --> 00:19:09,440
Year conversations. He's been all defense wasn't necessarily I mean,

409
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,079
the field goals were not terrible, the three point shot

410
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:13,680
was not. But again he got a lot of the

411
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,680
heavy lifting done at the charity stripe. Let's go to

412
00:19:16,759 --> 00:19:20,720
Ryan on seven Ony Ryan, good morning, do you go morning?

413
00:19:20,759 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 5: I mean, there's only two real accents that you can

414
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,000
make fun of nowadays.

415
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 3: And I see it.

416
00:19:27,039 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 5: Ballians, Congratulations Don Dolan and the second is New York.

417
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,279
Speaker 6: I hope Yankee.

418
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,599
Speaker 5: Dames is listening to this. Aaron Judge is not who

419
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:39,519
he thinks he is.

420
00:19:39,799 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 6: He doesn't have a clutch bone in his body's striking

421
00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:47,200
out in the ninety he's dog water and he doesn't

422
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,759
deserve a win. Everybody needs to go back so the

423
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,640
American baseball can get back the.

424
00:19:51,599 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 5: Spring and training. And that's all I'm gonna say, because

425
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,559
it's be at work all day to day. Shut Joe bomb,

426
00:19:57,599 --> 00:20:00,599
hass up Yankees fans. Aaron Judge a him and he

427
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,599
never will be in those clutch spots be here.

428
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,599
Speaker 3: Let me hear from your Staten Island. You're gonna let

429
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:07,119

Speaker 2: Queens on sixty six, not bef And you wanna let

431
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:11,920

432
00:20:14,519 --> 00:20:15,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was.

433
00:20:15,079 --> 00:20:16,799
Speaker 2: There was a large part of America Sports ha RV.

434
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,359
When Aaron Judge did not come through with a strikeout.

435
00:20:19,599 --> 00:20:24,000
They were necessartainly disappointed. Put it that way. Can I

436
00:20:24,039 --> 00:20:28,160
say one thing? I know we're in Houston, so oh,

437
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:28,680
here we go.

438
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:34,559
Speaker 3: He was great in the playoffs last year, Aaron Judge.

439
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,359
He had five hundred they didn't get the crown.

440
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: He hit five twelve.

441
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,519
Speaker 3: Hundred ops last year in the playoffs. You can you

442
00:20:43,559 --> 00:20:45,759
can speak it into existence. Those are facts. I mean,

443
00:20:45,799 --> 00:20:47,559
I'm just saying he was.

444
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I know we hate Aaron Judge and he's

445
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:54,200
the worst, and he's that dude. And where's our astros

446
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,559

we probably should get that right. Okay of the season.

487
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,160
When I was on the plane back from spring training,

488
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,039
there was a man who came to visit and wanted

489
00:23:07,079 --> 00:23:12,240
to get a glimpse of him from he was Taiwanese. Yeah,

490
00:23:12,039 --> 00:23:13,799
uh yeah, I mean he's got a nice career.

491
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 3: I think it was a sneaky good acquisition. M hm.

00:23:17,839 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 2: And you you know again, bullpens are every year. One

493
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,039
year you love him, next year you hate him. So

494
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,599
we loved him last year. Well, the taiwan As people

495
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:34,440
have his back, k we Tang Tang. Yeah, and I

496
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,720
told him I visited Taiwan and it was lovely love Taiwan.

497
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,480
Did you did you guys break? Did you guys talk

498
00:23:38,519 --> 00:23:40,480
about some of your favorite spots? Yeah, we were talking

499
00:23:40,519 --> 00:23:45,119
about Taipei. All right, you're going back soon. I don't

500
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,359
know if I'm going back any time soon, but I

501
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,359
would love to go back. Taiwan was spectacular.

502
00:23:48,799 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

503
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 2: You were a big on the food, right, Oh hmm hm.

504
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,359
You were a little gassy though, correct during the trip.

505
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,319
Speaker 3: No, it was fine. Why would I no? Okay, I

506
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:00,359
wasn't in my trip report.

507
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 4: What's up?

508
00:24:01,039 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 3: A question is that I don't know? It's a Matt

509
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:03,279
Thomas question?

510
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:04,799
Speaker 2: Uh?

511
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,279
Speaker 3: Astros yesterday?

512
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:07,039
Speaker 4: Uh?

513
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 3: Did beat the oil seven to six?

514
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 7: Yes?

515
00:24:10,039 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 3: The offense is humming? Can we he say? Is Gordy

516
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,960
still worried? You got ten runs and then you got

517
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,000
seven runs and back to back games. We're all good.

518
00:24:17,039 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 2: Maybe to be fair, the Astros did Baltimore's plays their

519
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,519
spring training in Sarasota, and we talked about this last week.

520
00:24:23,519 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 3: We don't send a listers across the state.

521
00:24:25,839 --> 00:24:27,759
Speaker 2: No, we don't contextualize when it's bad, so we're not

522
00:24:27,759 --> 00:24:30,480
going to contextualize when it's good. Hey, Jack Winkler had

523
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,359
a three run double for the Astros to give them

524
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,440
the lead. Jack Winkler, Cam Smith knocked in a couple

525
00:24:35,519 --> 00:24:38,559
of runs. He's hitting three eighteen in spring.

526
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,599
Speaker 3: Now, baby, let's here. Is mister Spring? Oh, come on,

527
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:43,519
don't call him that?

528
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 2: Well, I mean because if they call you mister Spring,

529
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,319
that means you're not mister anything else.

530
00:24:48,519 --> 00:24:51,279
Speaker 3: Well, I like him to be mister April. Hell. I'll

531
00:24:51,319 --> 00:24:55,359
take October too, other, Yeah, October sounds better September, all right?

532
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,839
Speaker 2: So yeah, the Josh hater situation is not a surprised

533
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,640
by the Christian hobber is going to take a few

534
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,920
days off off attendings. Is some personal matters and uh again,

535
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,519
don't know what that is. Joe did not want to

536
00:25:06,519 --> 00:25:08,880
get Hi an explanation what that exactly is. But apparently

537
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,160
he will he will continue throwing while he is gone.

538
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 3: Wishing him the best, that is for sure.

539
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 2: Seven one three, two one two five, seven ninety. If

540
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,640
you want to chime in, we got a shorter show today.

541
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,279
We got Brian Focus of It coming up at twenty minutes.

542
00:25:22,559 --> 00:25:24,880
We have shut your bomb ass uff coming up at

543
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:26,559
eleven thirty, and then we're out of eleven fifty five.

544
00:25:26,599 --> 00:25:28,319
So come on in. Do not be afraid. We will

545
00:25:28,839 --> 00:25:31,000
greet you with warm open arms here on the radio

546
00:25:31,039 --> 00:25:34,000
program seven one three two one two five seven nineighty.

547
00:25:34,039 --> 00:25:36,759
So we got into a little bit of the uh

548
00:25:36,839 --> 00:25:41,079
bam out of Bayou conversation. We got into the world

549
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,519
Baseball class again. Apparently does Martiner. I guess Mark de

550
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,880
Rosa does not know the rules about the tie breakers.

551
00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:51,559
He literally was playing like Paul Goldschmidt and stuff, thinking

552
00:25:51,599 --> 00:25:52,680
that they had already clinched.

553
00:25:54,319 --> 00:25:56,039
Speaker 3: No, Bregmant, I think the estuary too, right? Am I

554
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,039
right about that? I think so?

555
00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,799
Speaker 2: Giving him a well deserved day off in the middle

556
00:25:59,799 --> 00:26:02,599
of a very important once every three year event, it

557
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,200
seemed odd. Well, they lost eight to six and now

558
00:26:07,319 --> 00:26:10,079
the fate is their fate is out of their hands.

559
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,359
More confidence in Team USA competing in the WBC or

560
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:15,440
Team USA.

561
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:17,599
Speaker 3: Doing something in the World Cup coming up this summer.

562
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:25,559
Speaker 2: WBC the United States is like, I think they're like

563
00:26:25,599 --> 00:26:27,799
the twelfth and thirteenth best team in the world. How

564
00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:29,720
are we gonna do that? Are we gonna enjoy this

565
00:26:29,759 --> 00:26:31,400
World Cup? Of course we are. I know because you

566
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,519
were a soccerficient I know you're gonna you're gonna hate

567
00:26:33,559 --> 00:26:36,319
on it because when it's like North Macedonia versus Soudan

568
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:37,680
and it's nil nil, you're gonna.

569
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 3: Talk about how soccer's boring? Would I do that? Yes?

570
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,799
Speaker 2: And they also let more It's like the NCAA tournament.

571
00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:47,960
They let a bunch of love of French mid may

572
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,480
fringe mid majors in the tournament as well. They expanded

573
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:56,039
the tournament for more money. Of course, fifas their money.

574
00:26:56,319 --> 00:27:03,759
They're also corrupt, Yes, you also see's corrupt.

575
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe we.

576
00:27:08,759 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: Should create a sports association of just nice people that

577
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:16,079
don't gouger lists viewers and make reasonable salaries and let

578
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:16,960
people affordable.

579
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,079
Speaker 3: That's called minor league sports.

580
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you and the sport becomes about cheese, you're

581
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,599
gonna get some rats. Matt, did you write that? Did

582
00:27:23,599 --> 00:27:27,000
you got yourself. Came up with that, Jonathan, write that

583
00:27:27,079 --> 00:27:31,079
down the sports about cheese that'll bring out the rats?

584
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,200
Is that what you said? When you make the sports

585
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,920
about cheese, you're gonna get some rats.

586
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 3: I don't think you made that up. I think I did,

587
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:38,440
just know.

588
00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe somebody's used it before, like when you

589
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,240
came up with Crush City and the Orioles had used

590
00:27:42,279 --> 00:27:44,680
it before, So it's possible it's been used before. But

591
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,920
I will use that as a comp That's a fair

592
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,559
it's a fair comp because I didn't know the Orioles

593
00:27:48,599 --> 00:27:53,079
had used it before, and thus I could have retired

594
00:27:53,079 --> 00:27:55,200
and you could have You know, there's no way you're

595
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,440
getting retirement money out of that. There's no way. What

596
00:27:57,519 --> 00:27:58,279
could I have made.

597
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 3: I don't know. Those who don't know. I came up

598
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:01,240
with carcity Houston.

599
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,079
Speaker 2: And everybody just jones off of it, including a ratterie

600
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,039
and the Astros.

601
00:28:05,519 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 3: And they did.

602
00:28:06,319 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 2: They did sell some Nike shirts off of that, but

603
00:28:09,839 --> 00:28:11,880
how many. You're probably getting a few cents off of

604
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:17,240
every shirt, I would imagine, And if they sold ten thousand, yeah,

605
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,359
you'd probably get a few g's.

606
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 3: So not not life changing money.

607
00:28:21,759 --> 00:28:24,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd get uh, you know, vacation in Hawaiian money.

608
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,759
Oh god, it'd been nice, but you know, vacation, so

609
00:28:27,799 --> 00:28:30,039
it's all good. Yeah, my Stuba would give me a

610
00:28:30,039 --> 00:28:32,079
hard time at dinner internight dah, when's last time I

611
00:28:32,079 --> 00:28:32,759
had a family vacation?

612
00:28:32,799 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 3: I said, son, your life is a family vacation. O. Ouch.

613
00:28:38,559 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 2: So next summer things are getting cold at the hot

614
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:42,279
dinner table.

615
00:28:42,839 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 3: Next summer, we're gonna go to Colorado. What's a wire?

616
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:46,039
I don't believe.

617
00:28:46,839 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: No.

618
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,759
Speaker 3: You said you're going to Hawaii this summer. How are

619
00:28:48,759 --> 00:28:49,119
you going?

620
00:28:49,599 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 2: No, because it's too expensive. We're getting an airbnb for

621
00:28:54,039 --> 00:28:56,200
Carly and her mom up in near Rhode Island. So

622
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,119
just I like, well, Cancun, Well the king Koon's fine.

623
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,480
I think it's the other provinces in Mexico. Or we're

624
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,039
gonna have to go somewhere because some of us like

625
00:29:06,079 --> 00:29:08,319
the beach, some of us do not. So we're gonna

626
00:29:08,319 --> 00:29:10,240
go somewhere we've never babit force. We're gonna either gonna

627
00:29:10,279 --> 00:29:14,200
try Wyoming or uh, Colorado, or you know, get one

628
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:15,359
of those houses.

629
00:29:15,039 --> 00:29:18,279
Speaker 3: In the movie. Doesn't like the beach. It's kind of

630
00:29:18,279 --> 00:29:18,880
boring to me.

631
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,279
Speaker 2: Oh, it's you. No, it's Cameron too, and Peyton for

632
00:29:23,319 --> 00:29:26,319
that matter. You're supposed to relax at the beach, Matt.

633
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 3: I don't know how to relax.

634
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 4: I know.

635
00:29:28,119 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 3: That's why I'm trying to get you to relax for

636
00:29:31,279 --> 00:29:34,960
all of us. All Right, you're probably right. I probably

637
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:36,519
could use the beach time rest.

638
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,799
Speaker 2: Listen to those sit there, and I want you to

639
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,319
sit on the beach. First of all, we need you

640
00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:42,720
to get the sunscreen because we don't need you. You know,

641
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:43,839
you burnt to a crisp.

642
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 3: I know.

643
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 2: Literally sit on the at the beach and just listen

644
00:29:47,759 --> 00:29:51,039
to the waves, relax and breathe deeply for like three hours.

645
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it. You feel great, You're gonna feel refreshed.

646
00:29:54,839 --> 00:29:55,960
One year from now, I'll do it.

647
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,759
Speaker 2: No, nobody says I'm gonna go to the beach one

648
00:29:59,839 --> 00:30:00,640
year here from now.

649
00:30:01,559 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 3: Well, this one got no. Let's plan. I'll plan a

650
00:30:03,519 --> 00:30:06,400
trip with you. You bring your wife.

651
00:30:06,519 --> 00:30:08,759
Speaker 2: Well, we're going to Vegas. That's relaxing, man, I'll scare

652
00:30:08,799 --> 00:30:11,000
po lady. I'll bring her to all right, very good.

653
00:30:11,119 --> 00:30:16,200
Hey listen, uh, we've got Texans making another offensive line acquisition.

654
00:30:16,519 --> 00:30:18,880
We had the Texans paying a kicker and trading for

655
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,039
a punter, now what I thought would have been on

656
00:30:22,079 --> 00:30:24,799
the headline scale for the Texans in this off season.

657
00:30:24,839 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 3: But remember, uh, what do we say today, ROSSI?

658
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 2: That Nikki is going to the Dollar General to get

659
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:31,640
some of these deals done.

660
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 3: Is you know it's good?

661
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:35,359
Speaker 2: He's more of a like a look, everybody's shopping at

662
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,880
Neman Marcus and he's looking for he's scrounding for deals

663
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:38,559
at Darshals.

664
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he said he's at all Fifth right now.

665
00:30:41,799 --> 00:30:45,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's at the north Strom wrack. That feels fair.

666
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:51,160
Seven seven nineties. Ryan Bogus seven is gonna join us

667
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:57,160
at about eight minutes from now. Texans sign Logan Hall,

668
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,519
former Houston Couger, once a Cougar, always a Couter, played

669
00:31:00,519 --> 00:31:02,720
in for the Buccaneers the last couple of years. Braydon Smith,

670
00:31:02,759 --> 00:31:06,400
the former offensive tackle for the Indianapolis Colts, now wearing

671
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,960
Texans gear. Your thoughts, ross, I said they were going

672
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:10,880
to sign an in My gut feeling was they were

673
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,160
going to sign what did I say, triple league minimum?

674
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,599
They were going to sign a lot interior alignment and

675
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,000
he's a tackle, So I guess I get I get

676
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,519
an l on that but I I feel like I

677
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:23,160
was in the in the right ballpark.

678
00:31:23,519 --> 00:31:25,079
Speaker 3: Well, they had to get some more bodies, so there's

679
00:31:25,119 --> 00:31:26,119
just another way around it.

680
00:31:26,319 --> 00:31:28,359
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna win the closest to the pen competition,

681
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,640
but I was close. Then they re signed Kammie fairbir

682
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,279
and give him a two year extension to give him

683
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,880
big time money. He's the highest paid kicker in the NFL.

684
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:39,720
I think it's six.

685
00:31:39,519 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 3: Point two million is what I heard. Damn that's good money.

686
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,000
I mean, he is the most important Texan.

687
00:31:46,559 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 2: He has to be the less important Texan next year

688
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,440
if the Texans rely on him as much as they

689
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,400
did this past year. The Texans have not advanced in

690
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:54,440
their offensive.

691
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:58,359
Speaker 3: Any Yeah, you're right, Well we'll see. Let's go c J.

692
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 2: Shroud, let's go offensive line, let's go David Montgomery.

693
00:32:01,759 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 3: And then they make a trade for something called kai Kroger.

694
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:11,599
Speaker 2: Mmm, okay, punter, and I have a friend of mine

695
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:17,519
that I cannot name, Okay, to protect the innocent on

696
00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:23,720
this that was like he sucks and that there was

697
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,559
many other kickers that would have been better for the

698
00:32:26,599 --> 00:32:31,720
Texans to try to trade for. Yeah, kaiak Kroger is

699
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,839
now a Houston Texans punter.

700
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 3: I guess they.

701
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 2: You know, they had a couple of blocks punts block

702
00:32:38,279 --> 00:32:42,039
last year. The numbers were not nearly as good. Who's

703
00:32:42,079 --> 00:32:45,079
the not Cam Johnson's Who's the punter for the Texans,

704
00:32:45,359 --> 00:32:48,799
Tommy Townsend, Tommy Townsend. Yes, Yeah, numbers weren't as good.

705
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,559
The hair was, the free lock of the flow of

706
00:32:51,559 --> 00:32:54,559
the locks were still good, but generally speaking not as

707
00:32:54,559 --> 00:32:57,279
good of a year. I don't have any opinions on

708
00:32:57,319 --> 00:32:59,279
this at all except just don't screw it up. Don't

709
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:05,119
they'll get punts blocked. Yeah, I don't know, just because

710
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,240
as you're saying, like the net numbers aren't great, the

711
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,880
average numbers aren't great, the inside the twenty numbers aren't great.

712
00:33:14,079 --> 00:33:16,160
Maybe there's got to be some kind of advanced punting

713
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,440
analytics that we're just not aware of. Well, you know,

714
00:33:18,519 --> 00:33:20,400
the one thing I have found out in the last

715
00:33:20,599 --> 00:33:24,519
couple of days is that kickers are trying to free

716
00:33:24,519 --> 00:33:27,680
agent kickers and punters for that matter, are trying to

717
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:28,920
get indoors as much as possible.

718
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 3: They know they can they can extend their careers. It

719
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:31,519
makes a lot of sense.

720
00:33:33,079 --> 00:33:35,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to see coming from the Saints Yeah,

721
00:33:35,839 --> 00:33:38,440
you're going to see players take less money to kick

722
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,720
indoors because they know that if they're not in the

723
00:33:40,759 --> 00:33:45,920
elements of Chicago or Pittsburgh or the Giants, the chance

724
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,440
of them missing big kicks are not having good punts

725
00:33:48,519 --> 00:33:53,559
is going to be minimalized because of the dome conditions. Yeah,

726
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,759
and then Texans did have them in a tryout in

727
00:33:55,839 --> 00:33:57,720
last summer, so maybe they liked what they saw. I

728
00:33:57,759 --> 00:34:00,200
don't know one more NFL note to pass along before

729
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,039
go back on the phones. Did you see that there

730
00:34:02,119 --> 00:34:04,880
is a thought that the NFL maybe playing a Wednesday

731
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:14,760
game before Thanksgiving? Player safety, player safety, player safety, player safety. Well,

732
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,480
that's an incessarily I'm sorry, you're gonna pay us how

733
00:34:16,559 --> 00:34:19,360
much Prime video was? Is Prime Video Netflix? Imagine somebody

734
00:34:19,599 --> 00:34:22,079
some streaming started also put those two teams on. Give

735
00:34:22,119 --> 00:34:24,719
them the no. Wednesday night football is not good for anybody.

736
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:26,760
I'm sorry. There's no way to jump jump through this

737
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,800
mental hoop. It's not good for anybody. Oh except you

738
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,000
are so false? Are you kidding me? The Wednesday night

739
00:34:33,039 --> 00:34:35,119
before people are going to be spending I'm talking about

740
00:34:35,159 --> 00:34:38,599
the players and the organization and the coaches, and I'm

741
00:34:38,599 --> 00:34:40,360
talking about the actual human beings who are going to

742
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:40,880
be in the game.

743
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,199
Speaker 3: I'm not saying people aren't going to watch. I know

744
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:43,800
they don't care.

745
00:34:44,679 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: No, no, no, you can you will Wednesday night game

746
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,280
will have the two teams will play it by a

747
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,920
week beforehand, or they'll play the following before the previous Thursday.

748
00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 3: You they'll have six days off. They're not going to

749
00:34:54,559 --> 00:34:54,719
do that.

750
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 2: They're not going to make them practice on a three

751
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:58,079
day week. That's ridiculous.

752
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,639
Speaker 3: But then don't they then they waste their bye week.

753
00:35:01,679 --> 00:35:04,159
Speaker 2: Well, you got to get it in somehow. Yeah, I

754
00:35:04,199 --> 00:35:07,960
know for money, nobody's ever asked for Wednesday night football,

755
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,559
America is going to Apparently Roger Goodell believes that Wednesday

756
00:35:11,599 --> 00:35:12,679
football is very important.

757
00:35:13,639 --> 00:35:15,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, because they're gonna get a bunch of cash for it.

758
00:35:17,519 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, because they're always trying to add to their till

759
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,559
have you noticed that the every year LOFL Players Association

760
00:35:23,679 --> 00:35:26,320
and the union and the owners love to brag about

761
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,239
how much the salary cap is. There's a reason why

762
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,840
television dominates it. They're doing quite well munching their TV deals. Well,

763
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,039
they have to keep looking for more avenues for revenue,

764
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,559
because once you keep once you max out your your

765
00:35:36,679 --> 00:35:39,400
Fox and your CBS and your streaming services, and you

766
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,719
max out this, and the owner is gonna come to

767
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:42,679
Roger Gondell.

768
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:43,519
Speaker 3: Say, hey, all right, we gues's great.

769
00:35:43,519 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 2: We made twenty whatever I don't know, making up a

770
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,360
number twenty billion last year. We need twenty two billion

771
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:48,880
this year. We need twenty five billion in a year

772
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,800
after that. Let's go the resk. Is this the NBA

773
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,079
TV deal has the owners mad and they want their

774
00:35:54,119 --> 00:35:57,159
They want the TV deal. Wenegotiate it because like, waitby

775
00:35:57,199 --> 00:35:59,760
you're giving the NBA eleven billion dollars a year for

776
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,880
the HM we wont double that.

777
00:36:02,679 --> 00:36:05,159
Speaker 3: Yep, Yeah, you know.

778
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:08,239
Speaker 2: Frank, before we get to Brian Bogacevic, Frank, what do

779
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:08,880

780
00:36:10,119 --> 00:36:12,199
Speaker 7: Hey, hasn't done a fella good.

781
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 6: Uh.

782
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:15,519
Speaker 3: I was just calling Matt.

783
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 7: They got this room was going around on I think

784
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,480
it's on Facebook. A TikTok one of them about the

785
00:36:21,639 --> 00:36:23,880
kid from you of A is supposed to be gonna transfer.

786
00:36:24,039 --> 00:36:24,559
Speaker 3: Is that true?

787
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 7: The Kingston kid?

788
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 3: Uh No, he will be declaring for the NBA Draft.

789
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:34,079
Speaker 7: There will be no transferring, okay, because he already got

790
00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:39,159
a deal with Mike and John right that. Well, they

791
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,440
was saying like he got a thirty million dollar deal

792
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,039
with Mike for the shoes that they're gonna do.

793
00:36:46,559 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 3: I couldn't.

794
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:48,800
Speaker 2: I couldn't take I don't. I don't know what shoe

795
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,840
deals are with eighteen year old kids. I have a

796
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,639
hard enough time for watching these games, much.

797
00:36:53,639 --> 00:36:55,119
Speaker 3: Less figure out their endorsement deals.

798
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 2: But no, Kingston Jennings is going to be plumbing excuse me,

799
00:36:58,320 --> 00:36:59,400
is going to be a top five pick in the

800
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:00,000
NBA draft.

801
00:37:00,039 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 3: He's going to leave the University Houston this year.

802
00:37:02,039 --> 00:37:04,679
Speaker 7: Well, you don't have to upgrade. I depend on you

803
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,000

00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:07,599
Speaker 4: You know.

805
00:37:10,639 --> 00:37:13,079
Speaker 7: The other guy that's on the side of you that

806
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,679
don't know you know about the Cougars.

807
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 3: That's fine.

808
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,079
Speaker 2: He's team Longhorn, he is, I'm team Cougar. Thanks for

809
00:37:19,119 --> 00:37:22,320
the phone call me. I don't everything. Yeah, let's go

810
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,960
Kog's Yeah, best in the land. By the way, Sunday

811
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,519
is Selection Sunday. How good is that? God, it's a

812
00:37:28,559 --> 00:37:32,360
great day. Get your one bracket out and fill it

813
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,719
out and just hopefully I'm gonna do it at least

814
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,679
two brackets, maybe three. Okay, all right, Brian Bogus seven,

815
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,519
I don't want you know what chuckerbow mess up. I

816
00:37:40,559 --> 00:37:42,239
had two brackets make the money in the in the

817
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,000
big pool I was in last year. We gotta say

818
00:37:45,039 --> 00:37:48,280
about that, mister one bracket. I had two brackets cash.

819
00:37:48,599 --> 00:37:50,079
I think I did okay because I had the Cougar's

820
00:37:50,079 --> 00:37:52,599
playing for the national championship. So I think I did okay.

821
00:37:52,599 --> 00:37:54,639
I think I made some I think you did. Actually, yeah,

822
00:37:54,679 --> 00:37:59,360
I did. You want back in No, yeah, you do.

823
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:02,360
And we are so happy to have with it for

824
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,719
another season of Astro spring training conversation and regular season

825
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,880
for the next hopefully twenty six twenty seven weeks. We

826
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,519
saw how a Brian Bogus Eevic Space City Home Network,

827
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,159
bull Get's Matt Ross. Great to have you back. How

828
00:38:15,199 --> 00:38:17,199
are you enjoying the WBC.

829
00:38:18,679 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 4: Well, it's good to be back. I like it. I

830
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,760
think it's fun. It's really nice, especially this time of

831
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,559
year when the novelty of spring training is wearing off

832
00:38:27,599 --> 00:38:31,039
a little bit, to see meaningful baseball and every once

833
00:38:31,039 --> 00:38:32,559
in a while it kind of gets the feeling of

834
00:38:33,039 --> 00:38:37,760
playoff baseball and high stakes. So yeah, it's a fun tournament.

835
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:42,280
It's obviously new compared to most international tournaments, so it's

836
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,639
not the same juice as the Olympics or the World

837
00:38:44,679 --> 00:38:48,280
Cup or whatever. But it's fun and guys play hard,

838
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:49,119
which is enjoyable.

839
00:38:49,639 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 2: What do you do to do you ramp down or

840
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,679
do you try? And you obviously don't want to maintain

841
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,559
because the spring training game on March the twentieth against

842
00:38:58,679 --> 00:39:01,639
the Marches will not have the the zest that a

843
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,119
World Baseball Classic game would be. So if you were

844
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,679
in that locker room in that clubhouse talking to those guys,

845
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,000
how do they get themselves from the emotions of this

846
00:39:10,039 --> 00:39:12,239
big event to getting back into Hey, we got a

847
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:13,960
regular season the counts in a week and a half

848
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,960
and we needed to take it down a notch then

849
00:39:17,039 --> 00:39:18,000
ranch it back up again.

850
00:39:19,199 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 4: It's hard to figure because we've only had a handful

851
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,440
of these tournaments, so there is really no you know,

852
00:39:24,639 --> 00:39:27,559
best practices and protocols for it. I think you know

853
00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:29,360
once you get if you get through it to that

854
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,840
point and you've played that many games at that high

855
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,159
of an intensity, you should be pretty much game ready

856
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,440
and you're stretched out. You're playing these guys for the

857
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,480
most part, playing full games, so you, I guess give

858
00:39:42,519 --> 00:39:44,880
a little bit of a buffer, couple of days to

859
00:39:45,679 --> 00:39:48,960
relax and unwind a little bit and let anything recover

860
00:39:49,039 --> 00:39:51,280
that needs to recover. But then just try to roll

861
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,519
into it. I mean, you're not going to replicate those

862
00:39:54,639 --> 00:39:57,519
kind of reps the last week of spring training, so

863
00:39:57,639 --> 00:40:00,480
try to keep the timing that you've that you've gained

864
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,800
and kind of try to try to get your body

865
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,519
ready to go day one. But I would imagine that

866
00:40:06,519 --> 00:40:09,440
they're there pretty much where they would want to be

867
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,719
coming out of spring training, so you just kind of

868
00:40:12,119 --> 00:40:14,440
just kind of try to hold on all right.

869
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,559
Speaker 2: So let me go from the other side of things here,

870
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,239
what is the club like the teams? And again there's

871
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,199
just a few players gone here and there. But how

872
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,280
do you think Joe and other managers in baseball have

873
00:40:25,639 --> 00:40:28,519
worked around this because they're trying for the end goal

874
00:40:28,559 --> 00:40:29,800
to get their team ready for the start of the

875
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:30,559
regular season.

876
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's two sides of it. I think. I think

877
00:40:34,519 --> 00:40:39,400
the first side is everybody likes this. Everybody likes, you know,

878
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:44,920
full competition as opposed to exhibition setting, and they like

879
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,480
the international play and it's a good tournament, it grows

880
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,679
the game. Everybody's on board with the tournament, So they do.

881
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:54,920
You know, they help guys out a lot. They got

882
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,360
some of these younger guys more reps in the first

883
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,280
week of spring training that maybe they would have gotten

884
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,760
to get them and up to speed of the WBC.

885
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,199
But the other side of it is is, hey, we've

886
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,840
got a regular season to play, and it's a long season,

887
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:08,920
and we need these guys and you're kind of just

888
00:41:09,559 --> 00:41:13,079
biting your nails as they're gone and hoping that you

889
00:41:13,119 --> 00:41:15,400
get them back healthy and ready to go. I mean,

890
00:41:15,559 --> 00:41:20,039
that's that's the downside to any kind of exhibition tournament,

891
00:41:20,199 --> 00:41:23,760
and certainly one that is happening, you know a couple

892
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,239
of weeks before the regular season starts is can't afford

893
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:31,199
to have any major injuries. So yes, you enjoy it

894
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:32,599
and you watch it and you want your guys to

895
00:41:32,639 --> 00:41:34,199
do well and you want to grow the deed, but

896
00:41:34,199 --> 00:41:36,800
at the same time, it's like, just get our guys

897
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,000
back healthy so we can move on to the regular season.

898
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,679
Speaker 2: Brian bogasvik with us here on seven and let's get

899
00:41:41,679 --> 00:41:45,800
to the Astros now. The number one story conversation piece

900
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,000
this offseason was the congested infield and maybe the lack

901
00:41:50,119 --> 00:41:54,119
of quality or at least experienced bats in the outfield

902
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,920
that might remedy itself early on, especially Jeremy Paine is not.

903
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,159
Speaker 3: Going to be ready for the start of the season.

904
00:41:59,159 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 2: You can boom Parados to third, move over core at

905
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,960
a shortstop, as you've seen it over the last five months.

906
00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:07,760
Talk if you can, from a macro view of things,

907
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,239
of how this thing has turned out, and if everybody

908
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,760
eventually gets healthy, which hopefully will be the case, how

909
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:14,960
does Joe Spotta navigate these waters.

910
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:22,039
Speaker 4: It's difficult because you're talking about five guys for four spots,

911
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,880
but it's also five of the six best hitters on

912
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,440
your team, guys who you want and need in the

913
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:34,559
lineup every day. And you know, I think what's happened

914
00:42:34,599 --> 00:42:37,360
here early with the pain of injury is it's a

915
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,440
good lesson on not doing things until you have to

916
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,159
do them. You know, everybody all off season is talking

917
00:42:43,159 --> 00:42:45,639
about a trade needs to be made and thrown around

918
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,880
names and everything. But over the course of the season,

919
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,760
things tend to work themselves out and situations change, and

920
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,360
we see that here quickly. Although you know, fingers crossed

921
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,519
it's not going to last very long into the regular season,

922
00:42:59,039 --> 00:43:02,000
but you know, I think there are going to be

923
00:43:02,599 --> 00:43:05,760
I think there's no one set answer, right. It's not

924
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:11,039
a at bat share at first base, it's not somebody moving

925
00:43:11,039 --> 00:43:13,400
to the outfield full time. I think it's a lot

926
00:43:13,679 --> 00:43:17,360
of everything. And over the course of time, you'll see

927
00:43:17,599 --> 00:43:21,039
these guys, these five guys in the lineup together almost

928
00:43:21,079 --> 00:43:25,239
every day, whether it's you know, being able to mix

929
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,159
in yourd on in the outfield occasionally to open up

930
00:43:28,159 --> 00:43:32,519
a DH spot, or a regularly scheduled off day for

931
00:43:32,559 --> 00:43:35,679
a Korea or a walker where parades can slide into

932
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:40,400
the corner and just just kind of enough everywhere to satisfy.

933
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:43,880
That's got to be the long term answer, because that

934
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,400
gets the most out of these guys who you need.

935
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,480
I don't think we're going to see a single set

936
00:43:50,599 --> 00:43:54,000
solution to this anytime soon, and I don't think you

937
00:43:54,039 --> 00:43:56,880
need to just because over the course of the next

938
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:00,320
six months, there are going to be various times when

939
00:44:00,519 --> 00:44:06,320
guys are banged up or struggling, or somebody is okay

940
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:10,679
moving to one position or the next, that it's going

941
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:15,320
to be able to kind of work itself out organically.

942
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,159
Speaker 2: Moving to the outfield, especially on the young guys. I'm curious.

943
00:44:19,159 --> 00:44:20,960
I don't know how much hands on looks you've been

944
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,280
able to get so far this spring, but Cam Smith

945
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,719
has been hitting a little bit, and what you've seen

946
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,320
out of Zach Cole, who's struggling some, and then maybe

947
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:30,840
somewhere in between Joey Libraffido.

948
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think first and foremost, I think what we've

949
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:40,320
seen from Cam Smith is very encouraging. You know how

950
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,679
many times last year were we talking about adjustments that

951
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,559
he was making during the course of the season, and

952
00:44:44,599 --> 00:44:46,800
a lot of it had to do with getting the

953
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,480
bath head out more consistently catching the ball out front,

954
00:44:49,559 --> 00:44:51,159
being able to drive the ball in the middle of

955
00:44:51,159 --> 00:44:53,960
the field and on the pull side. And we've seen it.

956
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,159
His setup is a little bit different. Kind of the

957
00:44:56,159 --> 00:44:58,159
way he's holding his bad is flattened out. He's got

958
00:44:58,159 --> 00:45:01,480
a little bit more rhythm in his start. And you know,

959
00:45:01,519 --> 00:45:04,519
he hit a home run I guess two three days ago. Now,

960
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,639
that was just a bullet to his pull side, which

961
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,920
he didn't do a single time in spring training last year.

962
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:14,480
With all the production that he had, all the hits,

963
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:15,920
all the home runs that he had in spring training

964
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,280
last year, he never pulled the ball in the air

965
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,920
like that. So he's he's making the strides that we

966
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:24,840
want to see him make. And if he can do

967
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,159
that more consistently, what we saw from him last year,

968
00:45:28,199 --> 00:45:30,159
he has good enough back to ball skills, he has,

969
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,079
you know, really good instincts in the outfield. Is he

970
00:45:32,119 --> 00:45:35,840
can start driving the ball more than just pencil him

971
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,199
into right field every day, and we were seeing good

972
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,840
signs early from him. Zack Hole, he looks like he's

973
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,159
caught in between an approach. You know, he's the guy

974
00:45:46,199 --> 00:45:50,679
who had really good results swinging the bat a lot,

975
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,000
and the kind of the thought was, hey, you need

976
00:45:54,039 --> 00:45:55,719
to tighten up the approach a little bit to be

977
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:59,880
able to have that success continue over the course of time.

978
00:46:00,519 --> 00:46:03,519
And he looks like he's caught in between being patient

979
00:46:03,679 --> 00:46:07,239
and being aggressive and isn't really getting either right now.

980
00:46:07,519 --> 00:46:08,920
So that's going to have to work at you know,

981
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,760
he's gonna have to work through that and you know

982
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,039
at bats and time will allow him to do that.

983
00:46:13,119 --> 00:46:15,719
The question is is that is that time going to

984
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,519
happen in spring training, Is it going to happen in

985
00:46:17,559 --> 00:46:19,559
the big leagues to start the year, or is it

986
00:46:19,599 --> 00:46:22,559
going to take some minor league at bats. I like

987
00:46:22,599 --> 00:46:24,920
what I've seen from low Berfdo I mean he's driven

988
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,679
the ball to all fields. You know, he's he had

989
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,000
some strikeouts early, but he's tightened it up a little bit.

990
00:46:31,679 --> 00:46:33,679
What he did you know, he had one hundred at

991
00:46:33,679 --> 00:46:36,880
bats or so in Toronto last year. His strikeout numbers

992
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,280
were way down, his contact numbers were way better. And

993
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,719
that was always the question with him when he was here,

994
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,639
was you know, we like the bat, we like the power.

995
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,400
Is he going to make enough contact for it to

996
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:51,000
show there are legit signs of it going in the

997
00:46:51,039 --> 00:46:55,239
right direction so he might play his way into a

998
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,199
lot of at bats and left field to start the season.

999
00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,199
I like what I've seen from him and Taylor Schmill

1000
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,559
as well. He's He's kind of guy that I think

1001
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:04,719
we forgot about him a little bit. But you know,

1002
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,440
this time last year he was a guy who we

1003
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,079
thought would maybe play a significant role before you know,

1004
00:47:11,199 --> 00:47:12,840
injuries derailed most of the season.

1005
00:47:13,159 --> 00:47:16,599
Speaker 2: Brian Bogosvik with us here on Sports Talk seven ninety

1006
00:47:16,639 --> 00:47:22,320
to the pitching side. Can you temper my enthusiasm for

1007
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,400
for Mike Burrows or should I just be all systems

1008
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:25,960
go and get excited about his spring.

1009
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 4: I'm with you. I mean, it's not just what he's shown,

1010
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,239
you know, on the mound, and this stuff looks great.

1011
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,880
I mean, the fastball is as a it's a more

1012
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,000
power fastball than I thought it was going to be.

1013
00:47:43,039 --> 00:47:45,320
The change ups great, the sliders looked really good. But

1014
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:46,719
it's the demeanor.

1015
00:47:47,159 --> 00:47:48,280
Speaker 3: You know, a guy who.

1016
00:47:49,639 --> 00:47:52,199
Speaker 4: Doesn't have a ton of major league experience, he got

1017
00:47:52,199 --> 00:47:55,119
about half a season's worth his starts last year, gets

1018
00:47:55,159 --> 00:47:57,800
traded over to a new new team. I was kind

1019
00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:59,960
of expecting a guy who was, you know, a little

1020
00:48:00,159 --> 00:48:02,760
bit giddy and happy to be here and all that. Like,

1021
00:48:03,039 --> 00:48:05,800
he looks like he is all business and like, just

1022
00:48:06,199 --> 00:48:08,239
put some real competition in front of me, and I'm

1023
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,440
ready to run through some teams. He has been really impressive,

1024
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,719
and I think a guy who it was thought maybe,

1025
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,239
oh he'll solidify the middle of the rotation, it's looking

1026
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,880
like he can ascend to the top of a rotation.

1027
00:48:23,119 --> 00:48:26,000
I like everything that I've seen from him, and he

1028
00:48:26,159 --> 00:48:30,679
seems to be getting stronger as the spring goes on,

1029
00:48:31,039 --> 00:48:33,079
and just like he's chomping at the bit.

1030
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:35,840
Speaker 3: We have eight million more questions for it. We'll leave

1031
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,920
with one here before we get to next week's visit.

1032
00:48:38,559 --> 00:48:40,679
Speaker 2: How short of a leash going back to the outfield

1033
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:45,239
do you think that Zach and Cam have And does

1034
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,719
that mean a guy like Bryce Matthew squeezes in the roster,

1035
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,039
playing some center film, moving guys around, and how much

1036
00:48:51,079 --> 00:48:53,239
you're on an alvaretz do you want to see in

1037
00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:55,159
the outfield at least maybe in the first two or

1038
00:48:55,199 --> 00:48:56,039
three weeks of the season.

1039
00:48:57,199 --> 00:48:58,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.

1040
00:48:58,519 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 4: I think the leash. The leash for Cam is probably

1041
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:03,519
going to be a little bit longer just because of

1042
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:09,800
because the ceiling is higher, and so he's going to

1043
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:13,360
get more of an opportunity to to to become that

1044
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,599
player at the big league level. I think for everybody else,

1045
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,760
low Baffito, call all those guys, I think it's going

1046
00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,719
to be a short leash because there's going to be

1047
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:24,760
a lot of options and there's going to be a

1048
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,599
lot of guys that can be plugged in if you're

1049
00:49:27,599 --> 00:49:31,320
not producing, So you know, somebody, somebody is going to

1050
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,840
take that job over the course of the next two weeks.

1051
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,960
But it's not going to be theirs until it's not.

1052
00:49:39,199 --> 00:49:42,920
You know, it's going to be theirs until they prove otherwise,

1053
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:46,159
so that will be a short leash and you know

1054
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,719
you're on. They they don't want to do it, but

1055
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,400
it just might turn into a situation where you've got

1056
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,920
to if that is just you know, every once in

1057
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,639
a while at home with the small left field so

1058
00:49:58,679 --> 00:50:00,559
he doesn't have to run a lot, or if it

1059
00:50:00,639 --> 00:50:03,639
becomes a little bit more regular. I think it's something

1060
00:50:03,679 --> 00:50:06,800
that Look, this is not me saying I know anything,

1061
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,440
but it's got to be something that's in the back

1062
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,079
of their minds of like, hey, if all else fails,

1063
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,280
we can put yourd on out there every once in

1064
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,320
a while or you know, fifty percent of the time,

1065
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,360
or something just too free up at bats for other

1066
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:21,840
guys and make it work a little bit better.

1067
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,519
Speaker 2: Bogey, great stuff, looking forward to our Wednesday visits at

1068
00:50:24,559 --> 00:50:26,599
eleven o'clock. Friend, Thanks for the time and we'll talk

1072
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,000

enough with you all send me Aaron Wilson tweets and stuff.

1076
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,599
Speaker 3: I've gotten out like a thousand times I've only gotten

1077
00:50:49,639 --> 00:50:51,239
at about one hundred and fifty in the last.

1078
00:50:51,119 --> 00:50:54,800
Speaker 2: Yea and I'm in the Mountain time zone.

1079
00:51:00,079 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 3: Life lessons.

1080
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 2: It happens to all of us. It just does. That's

1081
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:10,880
all I'm gonna say. And don't say the name of

1082
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:11,519
the prospect.

1083
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no no no. You know,

1084
00:51:14,679 --> 00:51:16,519
it's a really quick story.

1085
00:51:16,519 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 2: There would be people Joel buschbaumb was a pro football

1086
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,880
weekly writer for many, many, many decades in the eighties,

1087
00:51:22,559 --> 00:51:25,320
and he would go on with on seven forty when

1088
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,119
we used to have a night show on KTRH called

1089
00:51:27,159 --> 00:51:31,519
sports Beat, and pranksters would try to call and give

1090
00:51:31,639 --> 00:51:36,639
up names to guys, not necessarily using sexual references, but

1091
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,000
just like, tell me about Harvey Blombashlin and is he

1092
00:51:40,079 --> 00:51:42,719
a good tight end prospect? And Joel would in his

1093
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,199
New York raspy voice, would say, I don't know what

1094
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:50,400
that is. People would try to google, they would try

1095
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,800
to get him stuff out. Yeah, so we mean we're cruel,

1096
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:58,480
it's what it is. Terrible, all right. Uh so we

1097
00:51:58,599 --> 00:52:01,320
got hater, not pitch. We'll get to more of that

1098
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,639
next week. And the roles that of the will pen

1099
00:52:03,679 --> 00:52:05,760
By the way, Brian mctager will join you tomorrow. Rossi

1100
00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:07,079
is part of the show at eleven o'clock. So we

1101
00:52:07,199 --> 00:52:10,639
continue our great baseball coverage. Wonderful and of course we'll

1102
00:52:10,679 --> 00:52:12,519
have Joe Spotta when the regular season starts in a

1103
00:52:12,519 --> 00:52:18,199
couple of weeks. Rockets tonight here in Denver. They rested

1104
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,599
last night the Nuggets, well, the Rockets were playing and

1105
00:52:20,599 --> 00:52:25,400
then flying here to the Colorado. I always tell you

1106
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,880
this about five times a year, every time the Rockets

1107
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,840
by the Nuggets. I think the Coliokis is going to

1108
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:32,599
be a top ten player when his career is done,

1109
00:52:34,079 --> 00:52:36,719
and I don't I'm not hesitating about h He might

1110
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:37,159
be there.

1111
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,840
Speaker 3: He might be there. He had some baseline three pointers

1112
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:42,719
that were.

1113
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,800
Speaker 2: His His shooting stroke is so incredibly fluid.

1114
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,119
Speaker 3: He's incredible. He's getting better.

1115
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,800
Speaker 2: If he just gave a damn about basketball, he'd be

1116
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,639
even better. That's the crazy that makes it even that

1117
00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:59,800
much more impressive. He just wants to be home brushing

1118
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,480
his pretty horses. He doesn't care about this game, and

1119
00:53:02,519 --> 00:53:04,840
he's able to be a triple double. He loves his

1120
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:08,239
brothers and he loves Internet. He wants to go drinking

1121
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,199
with the bros And then hang out with his horses.

1122
00:53:10,519 --> 00:53:13,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and want to annihilate lou Door when he can.

1123
00:53:13,199 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 2: And he's scoring twenty nine a game, twelve and a

1124
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:18,000
half rebounds, ten point three assists, and he's shooting thirty

1125
00:53:18,079 --> 00:53:22,719
nine percent from three. And they're tough threes. They're not

1126
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:24,880
like those on top of the key of the side pockets.

1127
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:31,800
They're just the you know, contested they're incredible. Bam out

1128
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:35,400
of Bayo eighty three last night. Pretty incredible too. Look,

1129
00:53:36,079 --> 00:53:37,440
as a lot of people have said this morning on

1130
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:40,039
the national TV shows, in twenty years, we won't remember

1131
00:53:40,039 --> 00:53:44,119
how many free throws he had, No, we won't. It's

1132
00:53:44,199 --> 00:53:46,280
eighty three is eighty three? Is eighty three? Again, like

1133
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,480
the the g Wilt game got crazy at the end

1134
00:53:48,519 --> 00:53:51,559
wherever both teams were fouling and stuff like that, and

1135
00:53:51,599 --> 00:53:53,679
we just talked. We still talk about Wilt Chamblain scoring

1136
00:53:53,679 --> 00:53:56,239
one hundred. Nobody talks about that. Yeah, he made a

1137
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:57,800
bunch of free throws in that game too, because he

1138
00:53:57,840 --> 00:53:58,719
was shooting him underhand.

1139
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,280
Speaker 3: Actually, well, here's the thing, here's what can happen.

1140
00:54:02,679 --> 00:54:05,119
Speaker 2: And I can think of about four players that I've

1141
00:54:05,159 --> 00:54:08,519
watched play a game in my life. Michael Jordan could

1142
00:54:08,559 --> 00:54:11,920
go on a heater, right Labos going a heater. Reggie

1143
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,000
Miller could go on it a Ray Allen. I mean

1144
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,639
the perimeter guys that every time the ball touched their hand,

1145
00:54:16,679 --> 00:54:19,119
it leaves their hand, it goes in for three, and

1146
00:54:19,119 --> 00:54:19,760
maybe Shake Gill.

1147
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:21,440
Speaker 3: Alexander's gonna be that guy eventually.

1148
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 2: So there is a chance ross that we will get

1149
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,119
an eighty point game again that will be a little

1150
00:54:27,159 --> 00:54:30,480
more aesthetically pleasing where field goals are made and it's

1151
00:54:30,519 --> 00:54:32,519
not a race of the free throw line.

1152
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,360
Speaker 3: It's not the eighty three that is alarming.

1153
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,519
Speaker 2: It's the it's the box score, it's how he got

1154
00:54:38,559 --> 00:54:41,199
to the eighty three, which again, I don't know if

1155
00:54:41,199 --> 00:54:42,800
there's any way you can get to efficiently get to

1156
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:44,079
eighty three points unless you're.

1157
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,880
Speaker 3: Just twenty of twenty seven from the four. I know

1158
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:47,119
you wouldn't have to be higher than that.

1159
00:54:47,199 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 2: Frankly, yeah, it wasn't hyper efficient, as I said related

1160
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:57,079
to other games. But Will Chamberlain's one hundred point point game,

1161
00:54:57,679 --> 00:55:00,480
he had sixty three field goal attempts, Like if you

1162
00:55:00,559 --> 00:55:03,360
wanted to really have a legit, oh my god moment.

1163
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,320
By the way, all the players around the NBA Victor

1164
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:08,159
Women Yamaho. By the way, I had eight threes last

1165
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:10,760
night for San Antonio. We we have to talk about that.

1166
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:15,599
Let's not let's you know, I'm gonna pretend that spurs

1167
00:55:15,599 --> 00:55:17,039
don't exist for my own mental health.

1168
00:55:17,119 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 3: You know, we should we should have them relegated. Yes,

1169
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,679
I like that. Put him in the G League. I

1170
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:26,119
don't care it's away from us. Put him back in

1171
00:55:26,159 --> 00:55:26,639
the ABA.

1172
00:55:27,159 --> 00:55:31,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you're gonna have one of those unbelievable

1173
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:34,599
that was the legit eighty point game moments they got,

1174
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,840
the guy's gonna have to go thirty two of forty

1175
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:42,079
one basically with a bunch of threes in the mix. Yeah,

1176
00:55:42,119 --> 00:55:43,760
theys to get to the free throw line twenty five

1177
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:45,239
thirty time. People gonna make fun of that, just like

1178
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:46,920
they're making fun of him out of bios right now.

1179
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:48,800
But we have to remember the reason he even got

1180
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:50,920
there and was pushing for that, because hey, he had

1181
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:54,360
thirty one in the first quarter. Oh yeah, that's that's

1182
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:56,599
what was And we will have time to pull up

1183
00:55:56,599 --> 00:55:58,159
his boxer. But the first I have him, I assuming

1184
00:55:58,159 --> 00:56:00,679
the first Quarterboxer was quite impressive. He had thirty one

1185
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:02,840
points on ten of sixteen shooting. He was five of

1186
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,079
eight from three in the first quarter. That's where you

1187
00:56:05,079 --> 00:56:06,599
want to frame that. That's what you want to frame

1188
00:56:06,679 --> 00:56:08,639
That's where you end up pushing for eighty because you

1189
00:56:08,639 --> 00:56:10,639
have a crazy first quarter, right right?

1190
00:56:11,639 --> 00:56:12,000
Speaker 3: All right?

1191
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:13,960

Speaker 2: I mean, did you know that uh MLB had pulled

1216
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,760
down the video from MLB dot com. That's zero surprise

1217
00:57:36,159 --> 00:57:37,840
and MLB network they're trying to pull it off of

1218
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:38,760
MLB Network two.

1219
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:41,400
Speaker 3: They're hiding the video now. Yeah, I got news for you.

1220
00:57:41,519 --> 00:57:44,719
Speaker 2: Anything that makes a baseball association or analysts look bad

1221
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,880
or a team that associated with MLB, they're going to

1222
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,559
take it off. There is what do they call it,

1223
00:57:49,679 --> 00:57:52,440
Rossi and like in Good Morning Vietnam where they would

1224
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,000
like to strike some of the news headlines that make

1225
00:57:54,039 --> 00:57:59,880
it sound censorship. Yeah, their censorship propaganda. There is a jenda,

1226
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:08,320

1230
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:21,159
tad Rossie? What's the matter with you? This week?

1231
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go with people Okay, if you are

1232
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:25,599
like a Matthew Thomas and you're on the fence and

1233
00:58:25,639 --> 00:58:27,719
you're like, I see how it's great. I see also

1234
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:29,280
how it was the Wizards and there was a lot

1235
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,599
of free throws. Like, I understand, you can go with

1236
00:58:31,679 --> 00:58:35,199
the yeah butt. But the people who are completely dismissing

1237
00:58:35,639 --> 00:58:38,960
the eighty three points from bam Adebio, I mean, get

1238
00:58:39,039 --> 00:58:42,840
over yourself and just stop being a complete hater. Yes

1239
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,000
it was against the Wizards. Yes it was a lot

1240
00:58:45,039 --> 00:58:47,000
of free throws. Go look at the fowls. There's a

1241
00:58:47,039 --> 00:58:50,119
lot of fowls. It got gimmicky for sure at the end.

1242
00:58:50,519 --> 00:58:53,079
Same thing happened at Wilt Chamberlain's one hundred point game.

1243
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:56,519
So people were completely dismissing it as an accomplishment.

1244
00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 3: Chuck your bumb ass up shitchobum ass up man.

1245
00:59:04,079 --> 00:59:07,119
Speaker 2: To the Washington Wizards. Nobody got time for you being

1246
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:08,800
hot garbage for twenty five years.

1247
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:10,119
Speaker 3: Hey, nobody got to it.

1248
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,199
Speaker 2: As I told you, I watched that two thousand and

1249
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,079
six Kobe Bryant eighty one point of the highlights of

1250
00:59:16,119 --> 00:59:18,079
that or I saw every bucket and the free throws

1251
00:59:18,079 --> 00:59:21,199
and stuff. You can find it on YouTube that was

1252
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,880
All Star d all Star game level defense being played

1253
00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:28,440
by the Toronto Raptors. It just was, so if you

1254
00:59:28,519 --> 00:59:30,760
want to go after that, you go after Wilts one hundred,

1255
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:32,880
go after Kobe's eighty one. If you're going after Bams

1256
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,360
eighty three, that's all I'm asking for. Okay, you're looking

1257
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:38,079
for fair and balanced criticism of eighty three point games.

1258
00:59:38,159 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 3: It's be a little consistent here, and I know that's

1259
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:41,960
asking too much, but.

1260
00:59:44,599 --> 00:59:48,159
Speaker 2: Come on now, seven one three two point two five

1261
00:59:48,239 --> 00:59:49,719
seven one, Johnathan, what's the matter with you?

1262
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:50,920
Speaker 1: Uh?

1263
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:53,599
Speaker 3: Reading about this Max Crosby situation?

1264
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:54,039
Speaker 7: Oh?

1265
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,039
Speaker 3: All, and how you got this big?

1266
00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:56,480
Speaker 4: Oh?

1267
00:59:56,719 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 3: Thank you Raiders. You know I love you guys. That

1268
00:59:59,079 --> 01:00:01,760
are No, your knee was all busted up to the

1269
01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:03,559
point where you got released. I've never seen that in

1270
01:00:03,679 --> 01:00:06,119
I twenty three years of living an NFL player getting

1271
01:00:06,119 --> 01:00:08,320
released of injuries. At nobody got time for that?

1272
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:08,559
Speaker 7: Man?

1273
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,239
Speaker 2: Ain't nobody got it should have been open and honest. Well, no,

1274
01:00:12,559 --> 01:00:15,280
he was recovering from surgery. People think that the Ravens

1275
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:18,599
failed his physical just so they could get Trey Trey

1276
01:00:18,679 --> 01:00:21,320
hendrins Where I go I lean that direction.

1277
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,639
Speaker 3: I think Trey Hendrickson was available, and there's.

1278
01:00:23,519 --> 01:00:27,719
Speaker 2: So he's Yeah, Max Crosby's recovering from surgery, and the

1279
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,960
Ravens don't have to say why he they failed him.

1280
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,760
They could if they think he's behind in his recovery,

1281
01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:35,559
or if they don't think things are setting right with

1282
01:00:35,639 --> 01:00:38,079
his surgery or whatever, they could fail him. But they

1283
01:00:38,159 --> 01:00:42,599
knew he had surgery, so he got played basically, Max Crosby.

1284
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,679
Speaker 3: Mat we don't know. Okay, we don't know. Oh you know,

1285
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:47,079
I'm to take that back. I don't know.

1286
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, So it's a it's an interesting situation. It could

1287
01:00:53,599 --> 01:00:55,920
have been like, oh, what Trey Henderson is still available? Oh,

1288
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:57,000
we could get him at this number.

1289
01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:01,159
Speaker 3: Oh we're failing Max Crosby. Yeah, and we get to

1290
01:01:01,239 --> 01:01:03,159
keep our draft picks too, they get to.

1291
01:01:03,199 --> 01:01:04,079
Speaker 2: Keep our draft picks.

1292
01:01:04,239 --> 01:01:08,400
Speaker 3: Well to that point, Ravens, you're doing that. This is

1293
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:10,239
a whole mess. Yeah, it's a mess.

1294
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:13,599
Speaker 7: Uh.

1295
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:15,320

it's stupid. I doess you really have something cool like

1311
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,880
halftime activities or you know, like Kender Lamarr is gonna

1312
01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:05,480
perform at halftime.

1313
01:02:05,519 --> 01:02:07,519
Speaker 3: A generational talent that would be great like that?

1314
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, pull a Serprize winner twenty twenty seven time Grammy winner.

1315
01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:14,199
Speaker 3: Matt just said Lamar took him to Lamar the generation

1316
01:02:14,239 --> 01:02:17,239
so talent. He was what I said, He's been sarcastic.

1317
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:18,079
He's being sarcastic.

1318
01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,400
Speaker 2: That's okay, mister Serious, twenty seven time Grammy winner.

1319
01:02:21,559 --> 01:02:23,320
Speaker 3: Hey, nobody got thought.

1320
01:02:23,159 --> 01:02:25,480
Speaker 2: You'd be a serious, Matt. You can't be serious. You

1321
01:02:25,599 --> 01:02:30,440
believe me, Believe me, Please believe me. I said it

1322
01:02:30,599 --> 01:02:34,920
kender Lamar better than Drake. Oh, of course, ship Obam

1323
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:38,480
mass up Man. Drake's Raptors lost last night by the way,

1324
01:02:38,559 --> 01:02:39,280
sorried Charlie.

1325
01:02:39,559 --> 01:02:42,559
Speaker 3: That's a shame they have no big men. Rockets took

1326
01:02:42,559 --> 01:02:43,039
advantage of that.

1327
01:02:43,159 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant highly efficient, Jabari Smith awesome game men, Thompson

1328
01:02:47,039 --> 01:02:48,400
going the free throw line on a bunch.

1329
01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:53,599
Speaker 3: Yes. How about the calls last night? One or two?

1330
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 2: Definitely George Rod I think it was one that's always

1331
01:02:57,400 --> 01:02:59,639
feel bad that I found. I don't time for you, Okay,

1332
01:02:59,719 --> 01:03:02,159
don't I don't care. I mean I try to keep

1333
01:03:02,199 --> 01:03:04,159
him under three, which he was. Those are on two forty.

1334
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:05,000
Speaker 3: That's not bad.

1335
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:08,719
Speaker 2: Sometimes, I've told him. Sometimes he repeats himself. He'll say

1336
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:10,639
the same thing two or three times in the same call.

1337
01:03:10,719 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 3: We love Drawid.

1338
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:15,519
Speaker 2: I wouldn't talk to anybody last night. I love Gerriid

1339
01:03:15,559 --> 01:03:17,639
calling the post game shows. It gives me someone to

1340
01:03:17,719 --> 01:03:20,440
talk to, especially when they win. Now, when they lose

1341
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:22,559
against the Warriors, I had like, I don't know eight calls,

1342
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:24,039
but you win against the Raptors.

1343
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,280
Speaker 3: It's just a nature of out goes. That's okay.

1344
01:03:26,599 --> 01:03:28,440
Speaker 2: What do you thinking about em saying all the things

1345
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:31,039
he said about Bam and he said and then in

1346
01:03:31,119 --> 01:03:32,000
the Washington Wizards.

1347
01:03:32,039 --> 01:03:34,480
Speaker 3: I think that with the negativity, I don't know, I

1348
01:03:34,599 --> 01:03:38,440
may's I don't know. He's so he playing spoken is

1349
01:03:38,519 --> 01:03:40,559
not the word I would use, but he's he's.

1350
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:43,360
Speaker 2: Being matter of fact. Yes, he was being blunt. A

1351
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:44,960
lot of people are saying like, oh, he's hating on

1352
01:03:45,079 --> 01:03:48,039
Bam or something like that. The initial comment like I

1353
01:03:48,119 --> 01:03:50,559
didn't expect it from Bam. I mean that's everybody, and

1354
01:03:50,639 --> 01:03:53,440
people like, oh, he's hating on Bam, Like, yeah, he's

1355
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,639
just because of the way Bam plays, he didn't expect

1356
01:03:55,679 --> 01:03:58,519
it from Bam. I think that's a that's a fair statement.

1357
01:03:58,840 --> 01:03:59,719
Speaker 3: Everybody is saying that.

1358
01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:01,679
Speaker 2: No, I want to expect if you had a list

1359
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:03,960
of fifty players in the NBA to go for eighty

1360
01:04:04,039 --> 01:04:04,920
three in this season.

1361
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,320
Speaker 3: Band's not making the top fifty of your list. He's

1362
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:07,559
just not.

1363
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:13,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think he may comments when it got

1364
01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:14,239
a little overblown.

1365
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:16,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you, Jim and the heights. Jim,

1366
01:04:16,639 --> 01:04:17,320
what's the matter with you?

1367
01:04:19,119 --> 01:04:24,519
Speaker 7: Well, I gotta tell you, I must be on some algorithm.

1368
01:04:24,639 --> 01:04:28,280
Speaker 8: Were officially known as a Dodger hater because I saw

1369
01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:32,639
this this video yesterday on social media, this guy walking

1370
01:04:32,719 --> 01:04:35,760
down the steps that had Dyke in like he's the

1371
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:37,960
cock of the walk and he goes, I'm back to.

1372
01:04:38,039 --> 01:04:39,400
Speaker 6: Where the cheaters live.

1373
01:04:40,039 --> 01:04:42,960
Speaker 8: And uh, if it wasn't for the cheaters, my daughters

1374
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:45,280
would have won ten World Series.

1375
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 7: Shut your boom ass up.

1376
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 8: We ain't got time for that, you would, man for

1377
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:52,960
playing the bad.

1378
01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, so shut it up, no bum ass.

1379
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:03,719
Speaker 2: Up, man, Thank you, Jim, Jim bringing it strong today.

01:05:09,119 --> 01:05:12,760
shake twenty seventeen. It's never going to change.

01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:15,159
Speaker 3: Just live with it.

1383
01:05:16,199 --> 01:05:19,519
Speaker 2: We're never shaking twenty seventeen. And I'm telling you Ross,

1384
01:05:19,719 --> 01:05:22,320
if it was the Rangers that did it, we wouldn't

1385
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:25,480
be shaking them either. It's getting better, let it go.

1386
01:05:25,679 --> 01:05:27,280
It was getting better, but it's never gonna go away.

1387
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:29,239
Time heels all wounds. And the twenty two was a

Speaker 3: All I was in a must win. It was a

1390
01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,119
must must win, all right.

1391
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:38,239

01:06:02,119 --> 01:06:05,679
Speaker 3: All right, Tomorrow. Brian Bogasovic was with us today. Tomorrow.

01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,559
grad Brian Erickson were joining us on on Monday.

1402
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,239
Speaker 3: Hopefully not. I mean people can hear him. We want

1403
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:27,239
to if we want, you know, No, I just mean

1404
01:06:27,239 --> 01:06:29,480
if I'm hearing from him, that means I'm usually in trouble. Oh,

1405
01:06:29,599 --> 01:06:30,599
that's true, that's true.

1406
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,840
Speaker 2: All right, Rockets and Nuggets Tonight, we've got Astros baseball

1407
01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:34,199
coming up.

1408
01:06:34,679 --> 01:06:37,800
Speaker 3: You want the lineups, by the way, absolutely, I figured

1409
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:38,280
you'd like that.

1410
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,159
Speaker 2: Uh. It is a pretty good lineup, all things considered. Again,

1411
01:06:42,199 --> 01:06:44,480
their home, so that kind of helps they go on

1412
01:06:44,519 --> 01:06:45,679
the road. It gets a little sketchy.

1413
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:46,480
Speaker 4: Uh.

1414
01:06:46,679 --> 01:06:50,480
Speaker 2: The home lineup today for the Astros will have Zach

1415
01:06:50,559 --> 01:06:55,679
Cole eating off and playing right field. Jose at d

1416
01:06:56,039 --> 01:06:59,480
H today, Essach Prede is at third, Carlos Krey at short,

1417
01:07:00,599 --> 01:07:05,000
Taylor tremonon left, Jake Myers in center, CJ. Alexander at first,

1418
01:07:05,039 --> 01:07:08,719
wearing jersey number ninety one. Bryce Matthews is at second

1419
01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:11,280
base today, and of course, batting nine days our salves are,

1420
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:15,920
he's really locking down that ninth spot. I mean, I'd

1421
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:19,360
have to have a little personal conversation many look. I

1422
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:21,079
know I'm in a ninth batter in an Astrol line

1423
01:07:21,119 --> 01:07:22,599
up in a regular sing game, but can I get

1424
01:07:22,599 --> 01:07:24,199
out of the ninth hole in a March game for

1425
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:29,880
the love of God? But I guess the counter argument

1426
01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:32,280
that says, oar salves Are is gonna be who he's

1427
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:35,800
gonna be, whether he gets a couple of extra looks

1428
01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:36,480
this spring or not.

1429
01:07:36,719 --> 01:07:37,119
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1430
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:41,000
Speaker 2: Tatsuya Emi is going to throw today for the local Knights.

1431
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:42,639
We'll have it for you here coming up in about

1432
01:07:43,159 --> 01:07:44,199
two and a half minutes for minute.

1433
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:44,519
Speaker 5: CJ.

1434
01:07:44,599 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 2: Alexander needs some more looks because he's an zero for eleven.

1435
01:07:48,639 --> 01:07:51,440
That was Roley anro I don't know what Riley ou

1436
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:53,880
On rose up to. Maybe they must be like a

1437
01:07:54,039 --> 01:07:55,960
Louisiana Appreciation Day and he's got to get back to

1438
01:07:56,039 --> 01:07:57,280
Louisiana for a few days.

1439
01:07:57,159 --> 01:07:59,239
Speaker 3: At cold two for sixteen. How two of a two

1440
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:03,360
for nineteen? Are you're doing this? Aren't you? Go ahead? Great?

1441
01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:07,880
Running through? It's fine. How's paradis? Uh paradis? Two for ten,

1442
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:13,760
Carls Gray two for nine, Taylor Tremail seven to twenty two. Whoa,

1443
01:08:14,039 --> 01:08:14,920
he's ready, babes.

1444
01:08:15,199 --> 01:08:17,560
Speaker 2: That's the epitome of a March player right there. Let's go,

1445
01:08:18,039 --> 01:08:23,840
sneaky snake, Jake. I'm consulting with the fan club right now.

1446
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:24,840
They said, don't say it.

1447
01:08:25,279 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 3: Wait a minute. Why, Fine, it's the truth. Two for fifteen.

1448
01:08:33,159 --> 01:08:35,239
Speaker 2: Well, you know that spring training pitching is he's saving

1449
01:08:35,319 --> 01:08:39,319
all his hits for the regular season. Yes, just like

1450
01:08:39,359 --> 01:08:41,560
Whitney Houston was saving all her love for you, he's

1451
01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:43,159
saving all his hits for the regular season.

1452
01:08:44,079 --> 01:08:44,279
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1453
01:08:44,279 --> 01:08:46,720
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're going to go on a national

1454
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:48,920
tour and belt out some big hits, you're not going

1455
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,399
to do it when you're playing concert halls in Monroe, Louisiana,

1456
01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:56,880
or you're in uh Cape Girardo, Missouri. You're gonna be

1457
01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,119
in the Vegas showrooms. That's why they called Jake Myers

1458
01:08:59,199 --> 01:09:02,600
big time. They do call him yeah, yeah, big time.

1459
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:05,119
Jake Myers, he was, he was, he was bigger when

1460
01:09:05,159 --> 01:09:07,399
we saw him last week or last month. Yeah, he's been.

1461
01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:11,039
He's adding masks. He's ready to slug some more. Sometimes

1462
01:09:11,239 --> 01:09:13,880
his words not our I know. Sometimes when you do that, though,

1463
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:16,239
it kind of might slow you down. So who knows,

1464
01:09:18,399 --> 01:09:20,359
never slowing us down? As a Matt Thomas showed Ross

1465
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:22,800
Ross enjoy the experience of tomorrow without me.

1466
01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 3: I know you'll miss me. I will be.

1467
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:27,399
Speaker 2: I'm actually crying inside right now. You if I just

1468
01:09:27,439 --> 01:09:29,800
don't get it tomorrow eleven thirty, sure, why not? Probably
