with blue light two. Because I'm just frying every day
on the computer twenty four to seven, just typing and
reading and my eyes are getting worse worse. But how
long was the process?
Speaker 3: It didn't take that long really, I was there for
maybe an hour really, Yeah, for.
Speaker 2: The whole kitten kaboodle.
Speaker 3: Like I got the eye exam. That didn't take long really,
and then she did more stuff, maybe an hour and
a half, but like I didn't feel that.
Speaker 2: That's cool, dude.
Speaker 3: And she also said, I have like eye inflexibility.
Speaker 2: Or your eyes need to stretch more.
Speaker 3: Basically, she gave me like a little exercise to do
for my eyes.
Speaker 2: What do you? What do you? What is it?
Speaker 3: Okay, So whenever I look at something far away and
then I look at something close, it takes a minute
for my eyes to focus on it. Yeah, like a while.
So then I'm supposed to look at like something up
close and then something far away. Oh hell yeah close
and then far away.
Speaker 2: Curls.
Speaker 3: Yeah, doing eye curls.
Speaker 2: You could be mewing at the same time and just
doing all sorts of secret underground workouts and kegels. You
do keegels, mew and eye curls all at the same time.
You took this in a different direction. Well, I'm thinking
of I'm thinking of exercises that you can be doing that.
People don't know you're exercising. Oh he would look really funny, though,
could You'd be like, can you tell that I'm doing it?
Speaker 3: So yeah, definitely, something looks like you're like tweaking, but yeah,
I don't know. They were like that for a while
and then I finally was like, I can't do this anymore.
Speaker 2: Hell yeah yeah, uh teh, you did, Bud.
Speaker 5: You know, I was doing good until I was adjusting
the cameras. I forgot that these lights are a lot
more yellow than those. I wore a cream colored shirt
and it kind of looks like I'm not wearing anything.
Speaker 2: No, I think I don't. I think you look fine.
I think you look fine. Uh, I do not. I
always hate how I'm lit up here, but whatever, but
those are those are whiter. These are. I was just
looking and I was like, you know, kind of no, Daniel,
Jake will be along shortly. Jake is just dropping the
kids off at uh at school. He will be ALONGO,
do not worry. Bill. There was his tea. Bubber Panthers
just said to play the leafs in round two? Yeah,
so what? The maple leafs finally broke some sort of
generational Curse, won a playoff series, win a road playoff game,
and they were right on the edge of blowing it
past the Ottawa Senators. And now my Panthers beating the
lightning again, proving that we are the premiere NHL team
in Florida. Very excited that I shouldn't reener Panthers Jersey
didn't think about that, Bilbo, I apologize. I had one
more thing, Oh, I was actually, this is how good
of a mood I am in?
Speaker 3: You were humming or singing bulletproof.
Speaker 2: No, No, that is funny, though it's jammed in my head.
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 2: When I walked in, I was excited to see Taylor
sitting at his desk and excited to maybe get a
quip offer too, be be be slapped in the face
with some take that I don't really care about. Yeah uh,
And he was nowhere to be found, and I found
myself to be disappointed. And then I was a bit reflective,
as like, wow, I'm sad. What the hell I wanted
a little I want a little early interactiong to the door,
and instead I was left wanting alone, where were you?
You were here?
Speaker 5: I got to do eight hours on Tiger this weekend, yeah,
so I was recording the first three and I was
just on the other side of the building.
Speaker 2: Eight hours on Tiger. What is it the I mean? Uh?
Is this? Is this going to be a permanent I
do it every weekend, all eight hours every weekend. No,
I normally do like three, okay, but I'm doing three tomorrow.
When can people listen three to six Saturday? It's ind
to three Sunday. Was it all just like Morgan Wallen
and Rascal Flats?
Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot of that, A lot of a lot
of Morgan wall and Rascal Flats.
Speaker 2: When you all voice Dray, do you do you get
to choose the music or is the music chosen for you?
Speaker 3: I change, like sometimes it's there already, yeah, but like
I'll add or change stuff that.
Speaker 2: Yours more so that makes I mean, the best musical taste,
uh in the world. Coffee and flannel. You'll should all
listen to it.
Speaker 5: It's really fun change.
Speaker 2: It's just there. Whatever's there? What are your Murphy? Sam
and Jody interludes like what what what little what little
life bit are you talking about? Forgetting to take out
the trash shout out trash ran forget to do that?
Speaker 3: Uh, this seems like a real issue with y'all.
Speaker 2: It's hard, man, Yeah, it's hard. I don't know. I mean,
you take out your own trash, I'm assuming, yeah, and you'd.
Speaker 3: Never forget I don't have to take it out like
every time that's person.
Speaker 2: You're not producing enough trash to where you end up
in an emergency situation.
Speaker 3: But I don't think I've ever been like, oh man,
I forgot to take the trash.
Speaker 2: That last week. I mean it's literally have you seen
the movie Nobody with Bob Odenkirk. It's a Better Call
Saal guy. It's an action movie where it's like the
classic you know, he seems like a regular man, but
he's got quite the past. But it's a very good
one of those. No, it's Bob Odenkirk, the Better call
Salt guy. He would never expect to be, you know,
to be an action guy, but it ended up whatever.
It's a very good movie. But one of the tree
in that movie, you know, he's obviously got this past.
He's adjusting to suburban life and he just consistently forgets
to put the trash out and has to kind of
deal with some sniping and and.
Speaker 6: And trash will remind you of the dry trash texts
the night before it's your pickup day, so you never
get to put the trash out again, and you can
be just like Bob Odenkirk, except without any of the
success accolytes, money, or uh military background.
Speaker 2: So nothing like Bob Odenkirk, except you're slightly better because
you don't forget to take out the trash.
Speaker 5: I'm not even slightly better. I forgot, so I'm way
worse than Bob. But no I brought up the uh
of course, the gorilla versus human debate, and then the
Shadower Sanders prank phone call.
Speaker 2: Where did you bring that?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, okay, perfect, perfect, Yeah that makes sense. Okay,
those are two good ones. Yeah, those are two good
ones for sure. You only you only have like a
minute minute and a half top, So those those play
well regardless of if you care about sports or not. Yes, exactly,
knowing that a prank call cost your dad one hundred
K and your dad's boss a quarter of a million,
that anybody can resonate with, uh for sure? Whoever wrote
I think it was Marler who wrote the one O
four five one hundred men versus the Gorilla and the
postal do really well on uh on on Instagram. But
I think they nailed it, specifically citing Bobby Abart but
pretending the gorilla is Jeff George. It's a pretty deep cut.
You know. The canon used to not be too happy
with Jeff George back in the day in Atlanta. So
kudos do whoever threw in that little nugget, I think Marl, Yeah,
I think I think he nailed it for sure. I
also enjoyed post loss Miskey and wine tea Bob, which
is a very specific, a very specific version of me
I fight. It's probably the only version in which I
would fight the gorilla, given the fact that all my
decision making at that point is terribly hampered. My favorite
duo of the.
Speaker 5: White guy from the Program, followed by the black guy from.
Speaker 2: The Program, which is Latimer and Alvin Mack.
Speaker 5: But Latimer and Alvin Macker, I mean, that's that's on
the lists.
Speaker 2: Combo, especially Alvin though this thing about Latimer. I love Latimer,
Latimer's cool, ladamer is not a guy with a plan,
but also but also Latimer's barely a start. Alvin Max
all American, Like Alvin Max is a dog Latimer is
fun and crazy and thrown off, but he's barely.
Speaker 5: But also you got to go in with a plan
like Alvin Max is gonna develop that plan. Latimer's gonna
go in there like a bat at a hell.
Speaker 2: I used to write g MFT on my tape in
honor of Latimer for every game back in the day.
Dan Wilkins on the list I haven't seen. I scanned
the list Dan of the cannon fodder up here.
Speaker 3: Mickey Loomis is also on the front I think Katie
Perry was on the front line.
Speaker 2: To I still don't know, really, is it Rihanna?
Speaker 3: It's not it. You're not going to guess who it
is because I couldn't remember I looked it up just now.
I couldn't remember who. You're not going to guess who.
Never heard of this person except for this song?
Speaker 2: Is it Britney Murphy?
Speaker 3: LaRue?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah? I love LaRue? Do you actually? Do you
actually love? Have you ever talked to me like you want?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: Have you ever heard? Love me? Twice on Tuesday? So
here's the thing, here's the thing.
Speaker 3: It's really not I don't know how you came up.
Speaker 2: Twice on Tuesdays A little bit shout out LaRue.
Speaker 3: We put Bill Belichick's girlfriend, but we tell her the
GIRLA asked how they met tim White boys outside of
tiger Land at two am.
Speaker 2: I've really evolved my take on Jordan Hudson quite a
bit after learning more and more about her. All that
was the CBS thing, That was the mistake of a
young professional. She is obviously someone who is very ambitious,
very driven. Right, they first meet on this plane, she's
reading what like the Secret of Deductive Logic or something
something like logic book, right, Yeah, and then she's like
chatting him up about it at twenty signs a book whatever,
they start dating. She's now masked the nine million dollar
real estate portfolio where she's renting out properties. Like, I
think back to being a professional on your I think
about being on air in my twenties, right, and some
of the stories that I ran with only to find out,
oh they were fake or you didn't do your due diligence,
you made this mistake, you read this wrong, and like, yeah,
don't make no mistake. She screwed up. She did. That's
so raven. She created the very situation she was trying
to avoid with the action she was taking to avoid
that situation. But make no mistake, she is going to
be far more wealthy than all of us, Like whether
or not they end up together or not. Like she
she she she knows what she's doing.
Speaker 3: And don't they live like on Cape cod or something.
She's probably already wealthy.
Speaker 2: No I know, but I'm saying, like, I think she's
going to be very ently wealthy. Yeah, she had already
started some company. Yeah she is. She has a nine
million dollars espe sheds heard some company back in that
she was like the CEO but whatever, you know, she
called herself the CEO of Belichick like again again huge
missed up buyer, making a big deal out of the
CBS thing that she had been very easy, I mean,
also asking to interview Bill Belichick and not talk about
it again. I don't know if I said on this,
but it's like walking in, uh to a dinner with
friends with like full steampunk gear on, you know, like
a purple top at clockwork glasses and be like, guys,
don't ask, right, I mean, this is the only reason
we're having you on Bill. We're not actually having you
ought to talk about the art of football. This is
the most interesting thing about you doing with your defense
in North Carolina. No, you're sitting here well neither disease
wearing a navy switcher. Another missed that, but I'd be
so pissed. I was you and see on multiple levels.
But I mean, you're sitting here taking pictures where you're
a cape cod fisherman catching a mermaid out of the seat.
Of course, that's what I want to talk to you about.
Your idiot.
Speaker 5: Well, she Alantro brought it up the other day, like
she she was telling me a musso about it, like
we hadn't seen it yet, so she explained the whole
situation and that that was. That was My response too,
was like I kind of thought we knew how they met.
I'm like, now I'm questioning whether or not we do.
Speaker 2: No quite well because because she was going again, she
was going a little too hard. It was it was
a professional she thought, Okay, I'm playing the role of
pr person here and we are only going to talk
about the book. And even though I'm sure she interrupted
apparently from the report many other times talking about the book,
you know, being like, stay on task, stay on task,
that's the shot. How did y'all meet? The immediate we're
not talking about no.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: As soon as CBS saw that, they.
Speaker 3: Were just like, yeah, look at what it did.
Speaker 2: That's what we needed. You gave it to us. Thank you, goodbye.
This was unpleasant, but it's going to play. So it
was again just but but like but my initial read
was so off on the escort thing. So anyway, she's
going to die ry rich for that's cool.
Speaker 3: It's I don't think it's hard to do that.
Speaker 2: No, that's true. See a fair there's nothing thinking super
high bar is it now?
Speaker 3: And she was already like.
Speaker 2: Rich then Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if
she was or not. Uh, maybe she's an alien. Maybe
remember men in Black Will Smith when they're shooting all
the little cardboard cutouts. They're like, why'd you shoot that
little girl? And he's like, you know, eight year old,
like reading a physics book. That's crazy, and he thinks
he's just like, you know, just riffing, try to make
an excuse, and they're like, oh man, he gets it,
he gets it, which we saw was a bit problematic
because he obviously didn't get it. But sometimes it's better
be lucky than good. Agreed.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: Sports talk guys are upset. I mean, coach, this is
this is sports talk. That is true. That is true.
Uh couldn't care less about Bill's girl. Yeah, that's true,
that's true. I wanted to I guess I wanted to
for for for the record, I wanted to state my
final take.
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't think this is like a like a
weird thing to talk about. Everybody's talking about it, like, yeah.
Speaker 2: It's anyway. Coming up next? Uh, Hunt Palmer did a
great resume review piece on Louisiana Sports dot Net. You
should all go check it out. Uh, but it kind
of looks at, you know, as LSU attempts to go
for a national seed, what are the dynamics that play?
What's in the line eat to the next couple of weekends,
and then we'll preview a little l s U A
and M Danny Stutsman coming up as well a little
Tyler shuck piece. Why I they keep happening to me?
More off the bench coming up next Off the Bench. Hey, guys,
shout out to our friends at Pelican Roofinge, Pelicanroof dot

Got a pelicanroof dot com Pelican roof dot com.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the best morning sports show around sorta.
It's Off the Bench with Hester and T Bob Sco LaRue.
Speaker 2: Don't stop until you here one bulletproof. This is a remix,
or maybe I think I've only heard remixes lately of
this song.
Speaker 3: This is the original.
Speaker 2: Okay, this beat feels a little weird.
Speaker 3: David, Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Actually, I actually hate this beat. I actually hate this beat.
I love the song, but there are much better versions
of this out there nowadays. I don't know which ones
they are, anyway, So this is crazy. We're talking about
Sidney Burson the last night else you saw ball falls
to Arkansas twelve to nine. And uh, what about lash LaRue?
Do you remember him? An old wrestler that's a good,
bad bad No anyway, So Arkansas beat LSU and saltball
last night twelve nine, and you know, I saw it.
Sidney Burson sixth loss of the year. She's seventeen and six.
And you got me thinking, like, you know, I don't
know if I have a great understanding of what the
average lift for a softball aces or maybe not average,
but like, are there like twenty game winners and stuff?
We were wondering. So I looked at the leader board
and yes, right now, Lindsey grind or Green, I'm not
entirely sure to pronounced from Oregon junior forty appearances, a
twenty six and one record.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: And then in terms of innings pitch, now, somehow this
is kind of crazy. She's only going one hundred and
forty three innings pitch second on this list is Jalen
Adams from Iowa. She's got a twenty three and five record,
but one hundred and eighty innings pitch. How about this? Uh,
the most innings pitch in the country. Casey Richard from
Boston University who in thirty five appearances has thrown two
hundred and twelve innings and has a twenty two to
ten record. That's crazy, that's crazy. Yeah, yeah, where is
Sydney a wan? We pitch every game. That's I mean,
May gave thirty five appearances, right, it's like getting close.
So for reference, Sid's actually a bit on the lower end.
Only twenty five appearance is very nice. Seventeen and six
record in this twenty five but yeah, that's crazy, man.
Somebody else will get to later in the show. So
ARKSVDLS shoot and the Somball Diamond. Arkansas also smashed Texas
on the Baseball Diamond at Bombwalker and it maybe more
than you think. But first hunt Palmer has a resume
review right now at louisianasports dot net. And we're gonna
run through some of the highlights real quick to set
the stage what you need to do over the next
couple of weekends. As Hunt points out, else You's thirty
seven and nine right now, And I'm gonna stop saying
his Hunt points out because I have to say that
every sentence, So I would say, go check out the
article I tweeted out last night as well. Lshu's thirty
seven and nine. Only Texas has more wins in all
of college baseball. One of the low points of Lshu's
resume is the out of conference schedule. It's just not
very good. Only Tennessee and West Virginia have worse out
of conference schedules out of all the national seed candidates.
If you look at some of the national seed candidates here,
ls use strength the schedules twenty eight, Tennessee's thirty seven,
Arkansas thirty nine, BAMA thirty five. See better than those guys,
But Auburn number one strength the schedule in the entire
country banning number three, Uga number four. Ls u's five
and five on the road in the SEC this year,
if you're again, that would be a point that if
you want to like really guarantee a top eight seed
this season. The road series this weeken against A and
M and then against South Carolina too in the year.
If you end with a winning road record. That would
be absolutely massive, especially because those are all gonna be
Quad one games. If South Carolina can stay where they are,
they can win a game or two over the next
couple of series, stay where they're currently ranked because they're
on the road, those would be quad one wins. And
right now LSU's got a nine to seven quad one record,
which you may be like, but that's basically where all
the national seeds are except for Texas, who's fourteen and three.
And so basically, here's how Hunt sums it up. If
you want to be, if you want to be a
top eight seed, he says. Quote, if LSU can win
three of the next six at Texas A and M
and Verse Arkansas, the Tigers will have a top five
RPI and a conference record of seventeen and ten headed
to South Carolina. That's the treading water point. If LSU
can win both series or win four, including a sweep,
a top eight seed would almost be on ice. Barring
a total no show in Columbia. The final weekend drops
drop four or five of the next six, and things
can get diicy. Lastly, don't even think about losing the RPI.
Number two eighty one Grambling on Tuesday. Uh So, to
Hunt's point, like, it is interesting, right because by way else,
she's number five in RPI right now, which weighs heavily
in on all this. It is interesting because you feel
like you know the number two team in the country.
You play so well, like, Okay, this should all be assured,
but no, it's I mean, you got you got, you
got work left to do. Like you said, man, three
of the next six would be pretty damn good considering
it's at A and M and Arkansas at home. However,
three of the next six and as you said, you beat,
you'd be right there on the line name to do
some work the final week in South Carolina. So the
stakes are still incredibly hot. And if you want to
be a national seed, you know, Regio host a super Regional,
you got to finish strong here and that starts with
text A M. And so that's what we're gonna we're
gonna do next. We are going to get the show started.
What you uh, we'll get that. We'll get that, do
that next, and we'll break down to text A and M.
Keep a lot t here on O TV off the bench.
Oh baby, Bay, if only it was the third hour.
I'd have a nice cold dose Secies in my hand. Uh,
Because the bottom line is, there's no better way to
kick off your baseball watching weekend than with a delicious
dough secies. In fact, the only way to make it
better is to have some limes, some salt. You would
be the hit of the tailgate or maybe maybe maybe
you're gonna be watching with them Frands. You will watch
pay for some of the games this weekend. You would
be the hit. Bring the dose, Secis, bring the line,
bring the salt, loup up the neck, sprinkle salt on
to drop the line inside and prosper. Because the bottom
line is this baseball season, don't be satisfied. It's time
to go for dose and drink with the secides. And
now was always drink responsibly, must be when anyone or older.
But if you are responsible adult, there's no better beer
to set your springtime alight than a delicious American lager
those Sekies.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to more sports talk. What's some other stuff
mixed in off the bench with Hester Anti Bob the.
Speaker 2: Outcast classic see right now, I don't like this, Oh oh,
I love that little something about that little echoey reverb.
It just it tickles me.
Speaker 3: I think I was going for more like electric this is.
Speaker 2: I guess this is more of like a Pilates vibe.
It's a little bit slower, a little more like lock
into the zone you wanted, a little more like party
house music.
Speaker 3: Yeah, or like uh like that weird a weird restaurant
that sells you like deconstructed food or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely yeah top
his cocktail lounge. Well effort you were going for. I
don't care.
Speaker 3: I'll figure shut up.
Speaker 2: Uh No, because I have one more than I'm gonna
make you play next. Uh I don't know. Well you'll
have to wait and see, won't you. Anyway, Guys, let's
go in get this show start.
Speaker 1: It's time to get to work courtesy of Tiger Labor
and Staffing, where they can help take care of screening, training, payroll,
and more. Now for starters.
Speaker 2: With the shortest waiting period in the industry, Tiger Labor
makes it easy to transfer top talent under your payroll quickly.
Tiger Labor personally vets your workforce to solve all your
staff he needs, whether short or long term. They're not
just fording resumes to you, but interviewing and dispatching in
person every morning at five am, Tiger labor and staffing,
uh after house. Let's go hell, yeah, go do you do?
That's my dog? All right? So LSU, A and M
tonight again. The most wonderful part to me is that
it's a complete inversion of last year, where last season
LSU was desperate, needed a great second half of the year.
A and M was the premier team. A and M
was the road team. LSU found a way to win
the series. Well, everything slipped. This year. A and M
came in highly heralded, absolutely stumbled out the gate right, desperate,
needed to fitish strong. They're getting better LSU. They've been
the dominant team all year long. They're the road team
this time. So here's to hoping that the results flipped
right because everything else is, or sorry, here's some of
the results stayed the same because everything else is. Can
LSU do what A and M failed to well? Last year? TEXA,
A and M could have legitimately come into alex Box
and maybe knocked LSU out, maybe maybe maybe put him in,
you know, if not, put the nail in the coffin,
put him right on the edge of flatlining. I mean, what,
maybe what else you finished thirteen seventeen last year? Now,
maybe with the se tournament performance, it could have gotten
into twelve and eighteen. But like A and M could
have eliminated L show ALI shows the same chance to
do that to the aggies. Can they go into college
station and do so? I gave some series numbers yesterday
and I found different numbers. I think goes wrong on
some things. So A and M actually leads the all
time series thirty two to thirty Can you can you
You'll never guess when the first game was played in
this series nineteen oh seven. That's crazy, two years after
sliced bread was invented? Or was it plastic? I think
plastic might be nineteen oh five, not one.
Speaker 5: Hundred plastic slice bread. We get them confused all the time.
Speaker 2: Still, the point is a long ass time, right, Like
this is before.
Speaker 3: It slice bread.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's a way before slice pread. Yeah, what about plastic?
Can I get a nineteen oh five on plastic?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Hold on, let's see.
Speaker 5: We should call this series the best thing since before
slice spread.
Speaker 3: So bake light was invented in nineteen oh seven, okay,
even better eighteen sixty two.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, what's bake light?
Speaker 3: I think that's like tupperware or whatever.
Speaker 2: Okay, so tubleware.
Speaker 3: Synthetic plastic.
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 3: Fully synthetic plastic. That's what bake light is.
Speaker 2: Okay, there you go. Nineteen oh seven. Fully synthetic plastic
invented the same year of this series's first play.
Speaker 3: That's crazy.
Speaker 2: I mean before the Spanish flew, Polio was still running amuck.
It's before both world wars.
Speaker 3: Hey, that's crazy anyway, been.
Speaker 2: Playing baseball long time. They're up thirty two to thirty.
Else she's gonna each the last two series. How about
this over the last thirty four games, the thirty four
games since Texas A and M joined the SE in
twenty thirteen, seventeen and seventeen. Ooh dead even LSU nine
and nine in games played in college station in the
regular season. So, as you can see, this has been
a very even matchup thus far. And this is a
great opportunity for LSU to tip some of those numbers
in their scale while also again driving the stake through
the heart of the Aggies. Uh and it looks like
again on paper, you just appear to be the much
better team. You're You're you have the second bad highest
batting average in the SEC. You're number one, and on
base percentage your number two, hits number two, and doubles
number four, and run scores fourth and slugging you have
the third best ERA. You're second in the league in strikeouts,
you're number four in opponent batting average, you're number four
in the nation. And K's per nine LSU right now
averaging eleven point eight as a staff eleven point eight
strikeouts for nineties. So the point is, like, you appear
to be the dominant team. Can you prove it? Can
you prove it? And and and again you gotta be
careful looking too much at the A and M stats
because they're playing better than what their numbers dictate right now.
I mean again, like look at Ryan Prager, right he's
kind of represented the old team. You would think Ryan
Prager sucks if you just saw these numbers, two and three,
four oh four, e ra A fifty four, k's fifteen walks,
sixty two innings pitched. It's been you know, okay this season,
but we all know what Prager can be. Uh injure get,
but still Kate Anderson much better numbers across the board.
My question is will Kate lock in the same way
that he locks in when he's across from like a
Kison Witherspoon or Liam Doyle or something like that. I
think so Prager's big Nick Saturday again, Ianson who just
seems to get better and better. You have an advantage
over Justin Lampkin. I HETSID sixty two, Lampkin three or five.
I in three four nine, ra a Lampkin three nine two,
I insid ninety one, K's to twenty five, walks Lampkin's
sixty nine to fourteen, and then we'll see what they
end up doing on Sunday is a case Evans again?
Uh do they end up needing him to close out
this series? Because make no mistake again, it is two
of three. That's what you need. That's what you need
if you want to be a top eight national seat.
Getting two of three will put you in in what guys,
the cat bird seed, and that's where you always want
to be in the cat bird seed. Also shout out
to he says Braker' is a shel themself. The stats
are an accurate reflection. I just mean in terms of
I just mean in terms of the potential of the team,
the potential of the player, they're not reaching that potential.
But I just mean if you go in half step
and you go in cocky, you can catch one on
the chin. Real freaking quip ability is still there. Yes,
real freaking quick.
Speaker 3: Uh that's pretty like you said, it's pretty much the
story of the.
Speaker 2: Aggies, yes, pragerus. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm saying, like the potentials there, they just haven't
with a lot of it.
Speaker 2: Like, No, I agree, That's what I mean. He's a
microcosm of kind of the team as a whole. So
I'm saying, come correct, this is a wounded animal, dangerous,
gonna be fighting for its life. Okay, it's time to
put it down. It's time to put it down.
Speaker 3: He did have a really big drop off though.
Speaker 2: Shout out to Derek Kuriel, who I haven't mentioned this
yet this week, but the forty three on Bay streak
coming to an end on Saturday highly disappointing. But what
does he do? Your respond on Sunday four or four
kicks ass. I'm glad that we can talk about it
because it was amazing. We were trying to avoid talking
about it on air forever because we don't want to
jinx it, or I didn't want I don't believe in jinxes.
I didn't want to hear y'all's crap basically, so I
knew the second we mentioned it and then it stopped.
It'll be like freaking idiots, you're so stupid. Anyway, it's
the fifth longest streak in school history. And how about this,
if you are the company you keep, who's fourth in
that list? Bregman third, do Goot second, Matuk and then first,
of course Dylan Cruz when he had the entire season
in which he got on base every single game. So
again get hyped about not just this year, Derek carry
ill enjoy it, but like the future as well. And
then it is funny, you know how it's what have
you done for me? What a difference a week can make?
Pierre Jones slumping, can't figure it out? Right? Well, you
look up second in the SEC and Ribby's second in
total basis fourth and hits six in home runs. He's
he's just been fantastic. And of course the incredible walk
off last Friday to set the tone and really launch
launch you firmly into the cat bird seat for a
national See. Hey, I found that so elis sports and
edits some good numbers. And Kate Anderson. Kate Anderson's third
in the country right now in case he's hundred and two.
It's crazy. Anthony Iinton also top ten in the nation
with his ninety two ks. Some nasty stuff coming out
of LSU. And of course, your freshman Derek curryel leads
the SEC in on base percentage. He's second in the
SEC in the batting average, He's fourth in doubles, he's
fifth in walks. Are you kidding me? Freshman? Unreal? Okay,
So the point is, guys, it's time to kick some
maggie ass. Yeah, time to kick some Maggie ass in
college station. Get a positive record on the road over there,
and and and and and continue to sit in the
cat Birds sea. Hopefully the Tigers will play better than
this Texas A and M graphic here do you have
this pulled up?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 2: Taylor, I should have told you before. Sorry, me and
Landre talking about it, but I just realized it. Me
and you didn't talk about it.
Speaker 3: Definitely, I think I put it.
Speaker 2: Alba Mar's one. He says, I don't believe in Jesus
brought in shape, shower or changes clothes in twenty nineteen,
want to Jake said, that's true. That was a weaker
time for me. And also again I didn't want to
hear your crap, just like because if I would have
cut my hair beard, no, she would have lost. It
would have been my fault forever. Uh, do the graph
for it? Look in the in the U cle in
the document, big DEMI geez? I mean the tim you know,
is pretty tight. Like do we need to go to break?
Should we come back with the graphics? What's going on?

white woman place, is it. I mean, I've nez Wine.
I know what that is. Where's that at? It's here
and me and Calen went, Yeah, my daughter there for
day two as well.
Speaker 5: Somewhere you've probably you've probably been around there sometimes it's
on Jefferson.
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what though, And so I had, uh
had a lunch at city Port the other day, and uh,
that's a different country for me. I like literally Jefferson, Yeah,
I literally never go over there.
Speaker 2: Jeff's great, great street, a lot of cool stuff. And
like it goes like all the way. It's got great
stuff all the way down out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because in town centers like a little further down.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought I thought it was like, you know,
fifteen minutes from there's already five minutes.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh man, that is well, yeah, it's about
the opposite side of town from you. That's damn Stree.
That's like y'all's area though that's a little I feel
like y'all are kind of out there on a island
a little bit. But the I mean for what I do,
I mean, it doesn't matter. It's not like we do
anything right. We just go home and do family stuff.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what I do like for it's like in a
row Elite l s U guaranteed media true.
Speaker 2: Sure, just the guides you home. All right. So here
is the text a ym graphic where you're trying to bring.
Speaker 3: Up it's horrible.
Speaker 2: Uh, it's so obviously AI slop like it looks like
they're kind of sprouting out of So it just doesn't
make sense because it's got a super badass tiger leading
the way.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know if they thought there was something chasing
down they.
Speaker 3: Were like, no, we're looking at it.
Speaker 2: They needed to take notes from old school game program
propaganda right where you would have like a little cartoon
week looking tiger and a yell leader would be like
spanking it with a paddle or something like this is awful.
This is indicative if we said that Ryan Prager's season
was a microcosm of Texas A and M, this graphic
is a microcosm of their season. Just completely missing the point.
Speaker 5: I mean, this is just the microcosm of Texas A
and L in general. You can just kind of you
don't have to worry about this season. It's just Texas
A and L.
Speaker 4: They could have used Taylor's AI yel leader image.
Speaker 2: I know Taylor does slot in just perfectly onto a
yell leader body. It's unbelievable. Though Hunts was good.
Speaker 4: Maybe it's also film more old miss for Hunt than
I do A and M. Like if I'm looking at
Hunt Palmer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, one percent on uh yeah, Hunt, you gonna
be a little more country to get the uh to
get the full uh A mtry me Like I could
