1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:09,199
Speaker 1: Lunch timers, Matt Thomas, Thomas, Ross VI Real is The

2
00:00:09,359 --> 00:00:17,399
Matt Thomas Show with Ross ten O one an Age Town.

3
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,280
Good morning, and welcome to a Thursday edition to The

4
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,399
Matt Thomas Show with Ross. This is Sports Talk seven.

5
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 2: And then.

6
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: The Seattle Mariners meet the Chicago White Sox and ROSSI

7
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,679
going on ourselves a good old fashioned Pennant race, the

8
00:00:46,759 --> 00:00:51,479
fight of the finish as the Astros lee the American

9
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:57,439
League West shaved to two games. It's going to be

10
00:00:57,479 --> 00:01:03,640
a battle, Matt down to the wire. But I would say,

11
00:01:03,759 --> 00:01:06,480
I think it's still an ongoing battle. Don't make that

12
00:01:06,519 --> 00:01:08,480
face of me. Hey, I don't need Hall and Oaths

13
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:11,359
to kiss and make up? Why because I want them

14
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,000
to go back on tour. I'd go back and watch them.

15
00:01:13,359 --> 00:01:15,319
I thought it was all Hall or is it all Oats?

16
00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:19,480
Well it's together, yeah, but who did the book? Yeah,

17
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,280
Darryl Hall did most of the same. Okay, yeah, well

18
00:01:21,359 --> 00:01:30,439
and beat it Oats, You beat your Oats terrible forty

19
00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:37,599
seconds into the show and the obligatory laugh from like,

20
00:01:38,079 --> 00:01:40,359
that's what we should have that not on a sound sound,

21
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,120
just the old like if we think a joke's gonna

22
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:45,200
fall flat or our attempted humor. We just hit that

23
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:48,439
black track always works, I mean it worked for decades

24
00:01:48,719 --> 00:01:52,239
in the comedy. Is there any show that uses live

25
00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:54,079
tracks now? That I don't know because I don't watch

26
00:01:54,760 --> 00:02:00,480
Usually most everything, most sitcoms are documentary style, like The Office. Yeah, yeah,

27
00:02:00,519 --> 00:02:03,159
all right, good morning everybody. It is ten to four

28
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,359
on Sports Talk seven and it is the Matt Tommy

29
00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:09,240
Show with Ross. Uh. That's Ross. I'm Matt Jonathan's our producer.

30
00:02:09,319 --> 00:02:13,120
Wo what was that noise? He's just thrown stuff in there.

31
00:02:13,159 --> 00:02:15,639
Woo woo woa. He's got a nervous twitch or something

32
00:02:15,719 --> 00:02:20,960
back that some medications he got the two reds those

33
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,439
are stuff from that way. Sorry. Yes, we're wishing me

34
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:28,280
the best. All right, amazing awareness. So can I peel

35
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,759
the curtain back in my life? Yesterday?

36
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:30,039
Speaker 3: Yes?

37
00:02:30,599 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: Uh? I did not realize. And this is why I

38
00:02:33,159 --> 00:02:35,000
said so many nice things about WEX and I have

39
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,319
thirty days. It'd be nice to add him. You're counting

40
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:39,120
them down, aren't you?

41
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 4: Down?

42
00:02:39,439 --> 00:02:43,439
Speaker 1: The twenty nine. I did not realize it yesterday, and

43
00:02:43,479 --> 00:02:45,400
I should have. I didn't put two or two together.

44
00:02:45,439 --> 00:02:49,000
The Astros yesterday had a game at three forty first pitch.

45
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,039
The previous two nights were at five forty, and I

46
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,439
was going to do the tenth Inning show, and then

47
00:02:54,479 --> 00:02:57,840
I realized that I had a We had our Kingoe

48
00:02:57,879 --> 00:03:00,080
High School had their volleyball meeting, all the parents got there,

49
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,360
and my wife's involved with collecting money, so I was

50
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,960
helping her out. She's shaking people down, no like paying

51
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,639
for like uniforms and getaways and you know, prepaid lunches

52
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,719
and that kind of thing, show us and kneecaps threatening folks. Well,

53
00:03:13,759 --> 00:03:16,439
I mean, you know her, That's what I'm saying. Why

54
00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:18,560
do you think I'm asking? There's a definite possibility of

55
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:21,840
that down the road for sure. So I was going

56
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,240
to miss part of the meeting, and I didn't want

57
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,719
to do that because I'm was trying to help her out.

58
00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:27,400
So I said, I texted we because I said, hey,

59
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:28,840
can you do the tenth I think show? And he

60
00:03:28,879 --> 00:03:33,199
gladly did it wonderful. So the meeting ends at about

61
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,599
I don't know, just shy at seven o'clock and he's

62
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,639
on the show talking about the game and breaking it

63
00:03:37,639 --> 00:03:39,840
all down and playing highlights like a good host does

64
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,680
I mean, I don't know if Adam Klant would be

65
00:03:42,479 --> 00:03:43,960
know how to run that format of the show. But

66
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,439
that's a different issue for a different time. They had

67
00:03:48,439 --> 00:03:53,240
a call and I had Josh c send me the call,

68
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:55,759
and I was thinking about playing it on the show today,

69
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,159
but I need I need an intervention, and I think

70
00:04:00,159 --> 00:04:02,039
I'm going to get my own self intervention on this.

71
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,360
You're gonna self intervene. That's good, I guess. The guy

72
00:04:04,439 --> 00:04:06,520
called up and I've heard the guys. I've heard his

73
00:04:06,599 --> 00:04:10,639
voice before because it's a very distinctive voice, and it

74
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,560
was from the moment I heard his voice, I thought

75
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,400
this is going to be a wretched phone call, and

76
00:04:15,479 --> 00:04:19,959
it was. He said, I know, I think Joe's probably

77
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:23,079
a pretty good coach, but he's not he's not a

78
00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:28,720
good manager. Huh. That's actually not dumb to have that.

79
00:04:28,959 --> 00:04:30,839
I mean to phrase it that way. It's not a

80
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,199
good opinion, but it's a horrific opinion. The Astros are

81
00:04:34,199 --> 00:04:37,000
in first place. They've had ninety five different lineups. Yes,

82
00:04:37,399 --> 00:04:40,720
they've got double digit injured list players. The number one

83
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,240
most prolific offensive player for this team hadn't seen the

84
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,560
field since May. You've lost I don't know forty percent

85
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,920
of your sorry lineup, You've lost forty percent of your rotation.

86
00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:51,120
You've had to go with a blue ball, You've had

87
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,800
to go with a Gordon, You've had to go with Arrogetty,

88
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,879
who got hit hard. Yesh, but that's no surprise on that.

89
00:04:57,439 --> 00:04:59,839
And he was just like, he says, how you sit

90
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,839
Jeremy Payania in this game is not a reasonable And

91
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,360
I'm just paraphrasing. I was yelling at my car. You

92
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:14,360
were yes, and wex is much more polite than I am.

93
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,000
I would have destroyed the guy because again, first of all,

94
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,759
Jeremy Paynia is back after missing well how much gamis

95
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:22,759
several weeks? Correct?

96
00:05:22,879 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 5: Yes, and then the first or second game back, he

97
00:05:27,399 --> 00:05:29,240
has a hams game. First game back, he has a

98
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,360
hamstring cramp, can't even finish the game, miss the Saturday game,

99
00:05:32,519 --> 00:05:34,480
does play the Sunday game, and they played the first

100
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,000
two games. Then you want him ultimately to be ready

101
00:05:40,079 --> 00:05:43,800
for the most important games of the series of the trip,

102
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,800
which would be the three in New York starting tomorrow.

103
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,600
And I thought to myself, there are too many people

104
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,160
that continue to believe that baseball is played like it

105
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,720
is in nineteen seventy four, yes where you have to

106
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,000
play all one sixty two.

107
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:06,639
Speaker 1: I know in theory that sounds like the right thing

108
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,720
to do. I know in theory that yesterday stars did that.

109
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,879
I get that. I grew up in some of that.

110
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,480
I watched Cal Ripkin play thousands of games in a row.

111
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,600
I watch Noan Ryan pitching the eleventh th any more

112
00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:24,399
time than I care to think about. I understand there

113
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:26,240
is a mentality of well back in the day when

114
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,160
I first watched the game. I appreciate that because I'm

115
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,839
also I've got a lot of back in the day,

116
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:35,199
even me. But the reality is you must adapt with

117
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:40,920
everything in life, and that does include the player participation habits.

118
00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:44,800
In twenty twenty five, I know people would love for

119
00:06:44,879 --> 00:06:47,800
their stars to play every single day. It's a not

120
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,000
going to happen. Be the game is more demand than

121
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,519
ever has been before. The players are better, they're bigger, faster, stronger,

122
00:06:54,519 --> 00:06:57,160
They're asked to do more things. And the reality is,

123
00:06:57,319 --> 00:06:59,680
especially for a guy who's fresh awful week off a

124
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,240
missing basically a month, if I'm going to give a

125
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,519
day off to Jeremy Payne at some point between now

126
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:07,279
and the end of this road trip, it's going to

127
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,360
be yesterday against the Martlins. By the way, he did

128
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,839
have a pinch hit role, so you had him off

129
00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:15,199
your bench yesterday. I'm going to use him for an

130
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,040
off day yesterday than I would against the Yankees, which

131
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,920
you wouldn't think in theory, would be a more difficult

132
00:07:20,199 --> 00:07:23,120
competitive competition if Jeremy Payne you sat out one of

133
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,839
the Yankees games. The same defits that called the show

134
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,160
yesterday was like, what are you doing? Why are you playing?

135
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:30,079
Why are you giving Jeremy Paye your day off when

136
00:07:30,079 --> 00:07:32,639
he should have had the day off in Miami? And

137
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,079
then people will say, well, they have an off day

138
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,519
today a lot of players and that this goes back

139
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,759
again the last twenty years. When players, especially guys that

140
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,040
are playing a lot, get days off, they typically get

141
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,160
a day off before the scheduled day off gives them

142
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,839
two full days. Now again, Jeremy played yesterday and I

143
00:07:49,879 --> 00:07:52,879
actually got on the field and did pinch hit, so

144
00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:57,000
it's like you got to day off though, So I've

145
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,680
just decided that I love hosting the Tenthening Show, and

146
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:04,920
I love talking to people of Houston, but I don't

147
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,160
know if I can listen to it when I'm not

148
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,759
hosting it because I want to get in a car wreck. Well,

149
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,040
I never listened to it when I'm not hosting it.

150
00:08:14,079 --> 00:08:17,519
Is that bad? No, I think you're a playoff game

151
00:08:17,639 --> 00:08:25,160
or something, right, And remember this the organization and look

152
00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:28,680
it certainly has taken its bumps when it comes to

153
00:08:28,759 --> 00:08:31,759
the way they medically take care of their team, whether

154
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:40,639
it's information, lack of information, current play policy, transparency, non transparency, misdiagnosis.

155
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,399
It has been a hot mess over there and that

156
00:08:44,519 --> 00:08:46,360
they would never say it and I don't and I

157
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,080
wouldn't expect them to, but it's been lesson spectacular. But

158
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:55,480
the reality is they have sports science people, Joe A.

159
00:08:55,519 --> 00:08:57,960
Spot as a manager who is with those guys every

160
00:08:58,039 --> 00:09:00,360
single day. He has been with those guys every single

161
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,000
day since training camp began in late February. He has

162
00:09:04,039 --> 00:09:07,080
the temperature of the team way more than Ross Phil

163
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,480
Riale does, way more than Matt Thomas does, and way

164
00:09:10,519 --> 00:09:15,159
more than said caller. And I'm just I just have

165
00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:19,200
to say, if you want to criticize, I get it,

166
00:09:19,879 --> 00:09:23,480
but look at the results. Friends. Your team not playing

167
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:26,000
great baseball and has to played great baseball for basically

168
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,639
a month now, is still in first place, and those

169
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,559
losses with the astro has been playing by about four

170
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,759
hundred baseball for the last month or so. Many of

171
00:09:34,759 --> 00:09:37,279
those games did include jermy opinion. Now all of them

172
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,120
did not as well. But if you can't beat the

173
00:09:41,159 --> 00:09:44,120
Miami Mardlins after smack him around two straight days because

174
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,600
you need to give your guy a day off, then

175
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:48,720
having him take a day off in the three New

176
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:50,879
York games, then maybe your team isn't as good as

177
00:09:50,919 --> 00:09:54,600
you think it is. Yeah, and here's the thing that

178
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,120
I always go back to is how long have we

179
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,759
been paying attention to the astros. I'm not saying watching

180
00:10:00,799 --> 00:10:04,279
the astros. I'm saying paying attention because you mentioned Joe

181
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:09,559
A spotted doing this and Dusty Baker did this. This

182
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:17,720
this is not new. Not a single Astro since twenty seventeen.

183
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:19,000
I did this while you were talking about I can

184
00:10:19,039 --> 00:10:21,120
go further back if we need to. Has played one

185
00:10:21,159 --> 00:10:25,399
hundred and sixty two games, not a single one. It

186
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:30,480
hasn't happened. It doesn't happen. This has been happening for years.

187
00:10:30,759 --> 00:10:33,480
And to get upset about this it tells me again

188
00:10:34,159 --> 00:10:37,080
you're just not paying attention. But again I will say

189
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,200
that was one caller in the whole show, right, was

190
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:44,000
there people? Okay, I ask out of Wexler. Wasn't five

191
00:10:44,039 --> 00:10:47,799
people up at arms about all this? Well? I put

192
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,879
there are people on Twitter talking about it. I think

193
00:10:49,879 --> 00:10:52,559
people are in Chandler Rome and Brian mctaggers mentions as

194
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,120
they usually are, calling Joe a spot an idiot for

195
00:10:55,159 --> 00:10:58,240
doing this, and it's like you're just not paying attention.

196
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:04,440
Is extremely extremely normal, and especially for someone just coming

197
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,360
back off an injury and who tweaked their hamstring on

198
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,879
Friday and sat out Saturday. Wasn't tweak. It was a cramp.

199
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,559
So cramp, I'm sorry, tweak you usually means something was pulled,

200
00:11:14,639 --> 00:11:18,080
whatever the whatever words they're using now I know, but

201
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:19,559
but he was Actually he was able to go on Sunday,

202
00:11:19,639 --> 00:11:22,200
so obviously it wasn't something severe. That's all I'm saying

203
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,000
is that I need what did they say on Seinfeld's

204
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,440
serenity now? Serendy now? But that doesn't work, Matt, that's

205
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,200
sussy the emotions down. You have to confront the emotions process.

206
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:34,639

234
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,879
Are you double serious? That's three? What's the max? Five? Yes?

235

One more? Your nun's out for the year. No, it's

236
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:31,000
about the Texans. Oh okay. M Mix and surgery. Texan

237
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,639
safety CJ. Gardner Johnson cart it off right leg injury.

238
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,639
He got hurt tackling John Metchi in major pain evidently

239
00:13:38,759 --> 00:13:40,559
and could not put weight on it. He is inside

240
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,039
with trainers next stop MRI practices origion. That's from Aaron Wilson,

241
00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:47,200
and we will try to check in with him sometime

242
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:53,200
in the next couple of hours. Yes, so he goes.

243
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,559
He goes on to say, uh, looks serious. Appears to

244
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,320
him be his knee, feel his silent prayers up. Players

245
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,360
are all taking a knee. Okay, ooh, I just got

246
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,360
fake shifter. Be careful at their folks. Mute I'm muting that.

247
00:14:09,799 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

248
00:14:10,039 --> 00:14:12,639
Speaker 1: By the the the sham's fake account. You want to

249
00:14:12,639 --> 00:14:14,759
get rid of the shifter, You want to block, mute

250
00:14:14,759 --> 00:14:16,120
all of them. Well I block. I just don't even

251
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,799
changing him on the on the page, So mute, block,

252
00:14:18,879 --> 00:14:24,759
whatever the case may be. Okay, this is four I

253
00:14:24,799 --> 00:14:28,919
would think, So okay, maybe he's all right. Maybe a

254
00:14:28,919 --> 00:14:31,960
little twisted the knee. When do players go down on

255
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,320
a knee and you go, oh, he'll be fine? Uh

256
00:14:35,159 --> 00:14:38,480
happened to Cam Robinson. They didn't go on a knee

257
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:43,679
for him. There's no chance. They din'tven know who he is. Well, well,

258
00:14:43,919 --> 00:14:48,159
well that's not good news. They were scrimmaging, by the way,

259
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:56,600
gonna happen. This is the nature of football camp. Injuries

260
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,159
happened to teams all over the absolutely every year. Yeah, yep,

261
00:15:01,159 --> 00:15:07,159
damn man. And he was looking from what I read,

262
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,279
he was looking to try to actually stay somewhere for

263
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,960
more than a year. Hm, that's not gonna happen. If

264
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,440
he's done for the year here, well maybe it's more

265
00:15:14,559 --> 00:15:16,799
likely to happen. You gotta get a little prove it deal.

266
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,840
Oh yeah, you know what? Uh what's his face? You

267
00:15:20,879 --> 00:15:24,200
know who loves proved deals? He loves Yeah, going to

268
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,320
be on this station later today, correct, I believe tomorrow,

269
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:32,039
No today, three o'clock. Car I think y'all awesome at

270
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,039
Texans GM. When's the last time the Texans general manager

271
00:15:35,159 --> 00:15:38,840
was on the station? Uh? I interviewed Rick Smith many

272
00:15:38,919 --> 00:15:42,440
moons ago, years and years ago. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

273
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,720
So that's good. I mean, uh, I'd rather hear from Dimiko.

274
00:15:46,759 --> 00:15:48,159
But then, you know, you get you get what you get.

275
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,240
You don't throw a fit text week's still the general

276
00:15:50,279 --> 00:15:52,440
manager if we're used in Texans. Do you think he's

277
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,519
gonna do the A team at three forty five about this?

278
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,200
Do you think he'll do the interview today? Knowing that

279
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,919
we don't know about CJ. Carner Johnes, Yeah, you know,

280
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,480
we're waiting for more information on that obviously. CJ. Gardner

281
00:16:02,559 --> 00:16:04,360
Johnson a big part of what we wanted to do

282
00:16:04,519 --> 00:16:08,159
this year. Great player, good family man, good locker room guy.

283
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,600
Has really been a leader on and off the field

284
00:16:10,679 --> 00:16:14,399
for us. So an unfortunate loss. Like I said, we're

285
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,320
kind of waiting to see how long he's going to

286
00:16:16,399 --> 00:16:19,320
be out. In the meantime, it's a next man up

287
00:16:19,399 --> 00:16:21,919
mentality and we're just gonna have to push forward. Do

288
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:23,360
you think he even does the interview? I think he

289
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,480
think he calls it off and I wouldn't think so,

290
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,480
I would hope not. I mean we now maybe a CJ.

291
00:16:28,559 --> 00:16:31,759
Stroud's arm fell off. Yeah, he's got Kang Green in there.

292
00:16:31,799 --> 00:16:34,679
We're gonna have to figure something out because Davis Mills

293
00:16:34,759 --> 00:16:39,039
is not very good. So I've done a few of

294
00:16:39,039 --> 00:16:40,840
these shows over the years. As of you, when you

295
00:16:40,919 --> 00:16:43,159
get card off on a cart, the chance of return,

296
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,000
I will say non zero. I can't remember specific names,

297
00:16:47,039 --> 00:16:49,320
but guys have gotten carted off and then everybody everything

298
00:16:49,399 --> 00:16:51,240
blew over. But you said the whole team was taking

299
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,159
a knee, correct. Okay, all right, let me rephrase percentage

300
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,200
of players that when you're doing knee, when you sprinkle

301
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,919
a little team taking a knee on top, that's when

302
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,640
it gets pretty bad. The guys are crying and doing

303
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,480
the sign of the Cross. That not good. When when

304
00:17:08,519 --> 00:17:13,599
the pope comes in, Yeah, I don't think that's the case.

305
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,359
Somebody's reading the last rites. No, they're not doing that.

306
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:22,400
That's good. You're not that bad, all right, Uh okay,

307
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,359
so help me out of here. Yeah, you're taking all

308
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,200
an e he's making a jay hook. With one of

309
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,720
his legs. That's not good. Jane Jalen Reid got hurt

310
00:17:30,839 --> 00:17:34,119
in camp a little bit. Jimmy Ward is out.

311
00:17:35,039 --> 00:17:35,319
Speaker 6: C J.

312
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,519
Speaker 1: Garner Johnson, that's a I mean, whoever this m J.

313
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,720
Stewart is you know what you know, Causario may not

314
00:17:43,759 --> 00:17:45,200
be availab because he's gonna go out. He's gotta go

315
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:50,799
out get some street free agents or some sort. Well,

316
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,640
you always have a lot of bodies in camp for

317
00:17:52,759 --> 00:17:55,839
these types of situations. Yeah, okay, So Aaron Wilson's gonna

318
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,839
join us later today once the media availability and now again,

319
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,079
my guess is COI is just gonna say we don't

320
00:18:01,079 --> 00:18:03,200
know he's in there. You know you got he there? Yeah,

321
00:18:03,759 --> 00:18:05,880
is not gonna give us anything because that's his momo. No, No,

322
00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:07,920
I don't even think he could have any I mean,

323
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,119
they're gonna know something in five hours. I'm not gonna

324
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,160
do something the next timey minutes.

325
00:18:11,279 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 2: So well.

326
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: We'll see. We're waiting. See moo. Matt Man, you scared

327
00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:28,359
the hell out of me. You went to four. I

328
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,759
thought you're did I go over the line. I thought

329
00:18:30,799 --> 00:18:32,240
he put his hand in a meeting. I think I

330
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,559
starting safety for a team. That's a super Bowl caliber defense.

331
00:18:36,279 --> 00:18:38,880
Oh now, okay, now I'm questioning myself. You gotta recalibrate.

332
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,400
Five is nuclear war? When did the last time I

333
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,480
did a five came back? Okay, we've done it something

334
00:18:45,519 --> 00:18:46,200
since then, have we not?

335
00:18:46,319 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 7: Oh?

336
00:18:46,759 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: Durant, Durant was a five star, was a five star. Yeah,

337
00:18:50,759 --> 00:18:52,720
get the one of the greatest shooters and scores to

338
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,240
ever walk the planet in the Houston Rockets. I apologize

339
00:18:55,279 --> 00:18:58,519
for giving you one too many sounders. That's okay, We're

340
00:18:58,519 --> 00:19:03,480
always calibrating. Matt C. J. Stroud hurt, that's fine. Kymie

341
00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:06,079
fair is an ankle injury. That's like three, Kymie Fairburn,

342
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,440
Kymie Fairburn. Demko says it's a five. That's his guy.

343
00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:12,440
That is his guy. Want to go ahead and send

344
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,319
in Kymie? All right? Uh hey, coach, it's four and

345
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,440
two on the forty six. What are we doing here?

346
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,640
Sending the kick team? Let's go, coach, fan Burn's got

347
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,799
a twelve percent chance of making this sixty three yard

348
00:19:25,839 --> 00:19:26,720
field golf beginning.

349
00:19:27,039 --> 00:19:27,279
Speaker 4: Get it.

350
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: We're indoors snow wind. Let's go. That's fine. It's just

351
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,039
it's just wired in the DNA of the defensive coaches. Yeah,

352
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,640
we doubt take points. All right. I don't really know

353
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,720
much to say except we're gonna when Aaron joins us,

354
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,480
he'll be able to just go it. You know. I

355
00:19:43,519 --> 00:19:46,559
don't know, but that's uh, that's not what you want

356
00:19:46,599 --> 00:19:49,319
to hear, especially for a category. And we'll get more

357
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,400
on this. Aaron sounds like the safe you to depth

358
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,559
chart is the one that the least depth. Yeah, I

359
00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:02,039
would wonder. Yeah, who do you even have that could

360
00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:04,160
be out there in that type of role? Well, Aaron's

361
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,359
gonna have to satries more of a a close to

362
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:11,160
the line of scrimmage type of safety. Yeah. Mm, by way,

363
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,920
I'm getting already. What's your favorite? CJ Gardner Johnson's the

364
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:19,160
Texan moment e tweets coming in? Jimmy Ward is just old?

365
00:20:21,079 --> 00:20:23,160
Is he in legal trouble too? Am I getting that one?

366
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:23,559
Speaker 2: Yeah?

367
00:20:23,559 --> 00:20:25,759
Speaker 1: I think you're right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's wasn't he

368
00:20:25,839 --> 00:20:28,640
arrested in Magnolio the Okay, so I'm giving you so

369
00:20:28,759 --> 00:20:30,160
let me here. Here's what I've done. We've done the

370
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,599
first half hour. We had the Astros losing. Yes, we

371
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,920
have the Mariners winning, the Yankees, you beat the Rangers. Yesterdays.

372
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,839
That was nice, Thank you Yankees for once Jesus. But

373
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,359
the Astros leads a two game sports RV. I'm feeling nervous.

374
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,359
All right, next segment of the show good news only. Okay,

375
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,880
so we have to carry a ten minute segment coming up,

376
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,359
Good news only if you have any good news? Oh,

377
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,200
I have some great news. Is it your better your

378
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:04,839
personal life, nor your athletic accomplishments in life? Which I

379
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:11,960
peaked athletically at eleven? Jonathan, what's your forty time? These days?

380
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,079
Forty time? You don't ever ask the track runner what

381
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,400
you what's your one hundred time? Then I'll ask whatever

382
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,640
it is? Well, I fastest I ever ran because that

383
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,240
was a four hundred unners. The fastest I ran is

384
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,160
at ten six. Tame with me too, ironically enough? Yeah,

385
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,720
it's crazy neck and neck with Matt. It's like I

386
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,839
Matt means, Matt means ten minutes and six seconds. Don't

387
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,119
let me finish my own jokes. Oh you're gonna do that. Yeah,

388
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,440
I'll walk out of here. I'll talk to you all

389
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,880

390
00:21:39,039 --> 00:21:40,920

00:21:47,319 --> 00:21:50,240
because what we've done is clinically depressed the city of Houston.

394
00:21:50,279 --> 00:21:52,400
For the first half hour of the show, seven one,

395
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,920
three seventy. If you got lucky last night, that's good news.

396

Does it counterfeit your wife, Well, it's a bonus if

397
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,720
it's your wife, or maybe in some case you hate

398
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,599
your wife or somebody else. What if it's your mistress,

399
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,640
What if it's just you know, if it's uh, if

400
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,839
you had a blind date last night it really went well,

401
00:22:09,799 --> 00:22:12,079
that'd be great. Do people go on blind dates? I

402
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,799
was just gonna ask you all that there's no such thing.

403
00:22:14,839 --> 00:22:17,720
At the very least you're you're stocking them on Google

404
00:22:17,799 --> 00:22:20,319
or Facebook. Oh yeah, you're you're ig stalking for sure.

405
00:22:20,319 --> 00:22:22,279
All right, So give we need a good news segment here,

406
00:22:22,319 --> 00:22:24,279

Yeast makes the team, we're gonna have him on the show.

417
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:11,559
He will rise to the occasion. What was your good news, Ross,

418
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,200
I have some great news.

419
00:23:17,279 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 4: Matt.

420
00:23:18,039 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: This is involved in putting money in my pocket. Yes, okay,

421
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,680
No it doesn't. Oh dang. Did you hear what Archie

422
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,359
Manning had to say in Texas Monthly magazine? Matt, Archie,

423
00:23:30,519 --> 00:23:35,720
this is grandpa? Yes, okay. He says he does not

424
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,240
believe that arch Manning will be declaring for the twenty

425
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:44,119
twenty six in FL draft. He said he's not had

426
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,000
conversations with arch However, knowing his grandson, he has an

427
00:23:47,079 --> 00:23:50,279
idea what he will do regardless of what happens this year,

428
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,759
this next year. Quote, arch isn't going to do that.

429
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,079
He'll be at Texas. So what is what's the good

430
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,359
news in that? I don't care. I'm not a Texas fan.

431
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,400
What do you mean great news because of what? Well,

432
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,400
because I was right. I told you he's not going

433
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,200
for We were talking about him taking the Saints tanking

434
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,799
to get him number one overall in the draft. What

435
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,039
if he sucks, you'll want him out of there. I

436
00:24:10,039 --> 00:24:12,000
don't think he's going to suck. I don't think so either.

437
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,000
He could ask some growing paints. He's just a red

438
00:24:15,039 --> 00:24:19,720
shirt sophomore. Look, the bottom line is this, the nil

439
00:24:19,839 --> 00:24:24,799
has become elite player's best friend. They have a fantastic alternative,

440
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,960
I would say, and he would be. I mean, especially

441
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,839
if he's a really good quarterback. He's top of the heat.

442
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,920
The name recognition, name recognition. You're in one of the

443
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,720
most recognizable college programs in America. You're on national TV,

444
00:24:37,839 --> 00:24:40,559
on the biggest network at probably six o'clock every Saturday night.

445
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,480
Does anybody does any college singular college athlete or at

446
00:24:45,519 --> 00:24:48,319
least college football player have a higher earning potential than

447
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,440
arch Manning. Well, I'll do this, and I'm not as

448
00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:55,000
Let me ask you this, who is the second most

449
00:24:55,799 --> 00:24:59,720
famous college football player right this second? I don't even

450
00:24:59,759 --> 00:25:03,480
have a answer. Free I couldn't even tell you. M

451
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,279
M but yeah, Chris Gordy Cook, But yeah, I be

452
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,839
Beck from the transferred from Georgia to Miami. Maybe Carson Beck.

453
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,599
Carson Beck probably well, ask Fordy this, that's a good

454
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,720
question for Cordy's gonna come in a few minutes. Okay, great,

455
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:21,599
So yeah, Jeremiah Smith, wide receiver, Ohio State, You're you're

456
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,880
wincing that is that that's not that doesn't make you

457
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,920
Maybe it makes him recognizable, but that's to make him,

458
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,720
like wow, recognizable. No, that's the point is if you're

459
00:25:29,759 --> 00:25:33,440
gonna put serious money behind somebody, well, first of all,

460
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,079
you're doing it because you want to take care of him,

461
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,200
and you love Texas. If you're if you're an LSU fan,

462
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,799
you don't care that Arch Manning is the most recognizable

463
00:25:40,799 --> 00:25:44,359
college athlete you wanted to leave. But yeah, if you're Texas,

464
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,839
you're like, yeah, I can actually get a little bit

465
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,920
of value back from my return. You put Arch Manning

466
00:25:50,279 --> 00:25:53,559
on a TV commercial, you'll know it. You put some

467
00:25:53,799 --> 00:25:56,079
rando linebacker from old miss On and like, who the

468
00:25:56,079 --> 00:26:02,960
hell is that? So yeah, but if he sucks, well,

469
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,559
how about I wonder again, how much of it is

470
00:26:04,599 --> 00:26:06,079
going to be on what team gets it no matter.

471
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:07,759
If he's going to be a top five pick, he's

472
00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:11,000
gonna go somewhere. That's terrible. Question. Is is he going

473
00:26:11,039 --> 00:26:14,039
to pull what his uncle Eli did and say I'm

474
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,079
not going to the San Diego Chargers. I don't think so,

475
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:18,519
but we'll see. I mean, it depends. I guess it

476
00:26:18,559 --> 00:26:23,279
depends on the situation. Can he do that? He his

477
00:26:23,759 --> 00:26:25,720
uncle did it? Well, yeah, but he was also the

478
00:26:25,799 --> 00:26:28,200
last one to do that. It was twenty one years ago. Okay,

479
00:26:29,839 --> 00:26:32,240
so are you ready to make a Okay, if the

480
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,960
if the Saints are the number one pick, you think

481
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,119
he'll turn that down. I don't know, we'll make a bet.

482
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:46,359
Oh my god, no, because I don't know. But I

483
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,279
think he's staying at Texas well. I mean, obviously, if

484
00:26:49,799 --> 00:26:51,640
my guess is that Archie has a good idea what

485
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,440
his grandson's doing, he would have said that half cocked

486
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,119
and he would just I don't think so either. But

487
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,720
he didn't transfer out. He would have if a queen

488
00:26:59,759 --> 00:27:01,480
you were answer out like I told you, and you

489
00:27:01,559 --> 00:27:03,720
said he was because Quinn you weers went to the

490
00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:06,640
NFL and made a massive business decision that wasn't good

491
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,160
for him. He could have stay at Texas mad money,

492
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,640
or gone somewhere else. If I was yours, I'd have

493
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,079
gone somewhere else and collected some Mentao money. He'd be

494
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:14,920
the second most recognized with a player in college football,

495
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,799
and take that right now. Probably right now, he's just

496
00:27:16,839 --> 00:27:19,640
a rando. So he's still at Texas, and I think

497
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,119
he's gonna stay there, and you're happy about it. I

498
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,480
think so. And when he throws four picks against ohiose sate,

499
00:27:24,519 --> 00:27:27,200
you won't be nearly as policed. Well, we'll see, and

500
00:27:27,279 --> 00:27:28,720
you know what I told you. Excuse me, I will

501
00:27:28,759 --> 00:27:30,000
say I'm not too bad. I said this is a

502
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:30,599
good news segment.

503
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 2: I bad.

504
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's okay. You're a hater. No, I'm not

505

00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,200
to you than ever before. Matt, I better not screw

549
00:29:48,319 --> 00:29:50,440
up this year, gotten away with it in the past.

550
00:29:50,759 --> 00:29:53,559
Can't make mistakes this year and today what's been a

551
00:29:53,599 --> 00:29:55,799
bunch of off the cuff weird references with Adam playing

552
00:29:55,799 --> 00:29:57,599
at the end of games and at the end of blowouts.

553
00:29:58,799 --> 00:30:00,240
Perhaps Hello Anthony.

554
00:30:01,079 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 6: Hey, good afternoon, guys, hey, or good morning.

555
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 1: Excuse me.

556
00:30:04,559 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 6: My good news is the Mariners are breathing down the

557
00:30:07,279 --> 00:30:10,440
astros neck. But they like to do this thing where

558
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,440
they get the division lead and then they couldn't hit

559
00:30:12,519 --> 00:30:15,240
water if they though out of a boat. And since

560
00:30:15,319 --> 00:30:18,119
twenty seventeen, the Astros are one hundred and nineteen and

561
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:22,200
sixty four in September, So death taxes and the Astros

562
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,480
winning the Al West, it's going to happen again this year.

563
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 1: That's the good news. That's the future. Good news.

564
00:30:29,319 --> 00:30:31,039
Speaker 2: Great, that's great news.

565
00:30:31,559 --> 00:30:36,559
Speaker 1: That's more division lead. Well, news is reporting something that happened.

566
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:39,799
Speaker 2: Your Crows are winning the AL West.

567
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 6: It's happening.

568
00:30:40,599 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: You heard him, he just said it. Well that's a

569
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,079
good prediction, Anthony, Thank you. That was a great prediction.

570
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,480
He could have called and said, I think the Astros

571
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,359
are gonna lose by five games in this last news

572
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,960
cheap You are so literal, kinda have rules in this

573
00:30:57,039 --> 00:30:58,839
life of ours, Matt, what kind of rules were This

574
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,720
is ten forty three in a minut day sports radio shows. Okay,

575
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,759
I'm sorry, it is the news. The Astros have won

576
00:31:04,799 --> 00:31:08,200
the AL West. Great news. I didn't stutter when I

577
00:31:08,279 --> 00:31:10,720
said it a month ago. I know how you feeling,

578
00:31:10,759 --> 00:31:12,480
though you might be stuttering now. I don't feel so

579
00:31:12,599 --> 00:31:14,319
well at this point. But that's a different issue for

580
00:31:14,359 --> 00:31:19,000
a different time. All right. Yeah, I'm just still winning

581
00:31:19,039 --> 00:31:20,960
it because again, you know what I got in my

582
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,960
back pocket, your backs and angels, the calls it the

583
00:31:24,039 --> 00:31:25,880
year on the road. Well, you know, how's the weakest,

584
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000
weakest schedule of the two remaining you are don't even

585
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,400
look at the schedule monitor. That's bad. That's bad. I'll

586
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,000
give you. The good news is the Astros have one

587
00:31:35,039 --> 00:31:38,519
of the weakest schedules remaining in baseball. Right, I will

588
00:31:38,599 --> 00:31:40,599
call that good news. I don't care what y'all say.

589
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,039
I have a they have above five hundred record against

590
00:31:44,039 --> 00:31:46,319
teams below five hundred. All right, we just gave you

591
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:47,960
some good news. Let's come back to the bad news.

592
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,519
What bad news spikes good? No, you wait till next segment.

593
00:31:50,599 --> 00:31:54,599
Bad news spikes sports radio better. I know you're right,

594
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:59,200
Am I wrong? I know you're right? Hey, Astros. I

595
00:31:59,319 --> 00:32:01,640
did the Friday, Saturday Sunday tenth inning shows. I had

596
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,200
like fifty calls in three days. Yeah, I made Wain

597
00:32:04,319 --> 00:32:06,519
nine to one over the Cardinals. Three. Have you seen

598
00:32:06,599 --> 00:32:10,359
the local news like seventeen murders before they get to

599
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,960
the feel good story of some kind of I don't know,

600
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,039
cat Shelter, some eighty year old bity celebrating a birthday. Yeah,

601
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,720
graduate from high school. He's one hundred and three. What's

602
00:32:18,759 --> 00:32:23,680
the key to life? Gladys? Speaking of that real quick again,

603
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,720
I told you the other day, I'm obsessed with the

604
00:32:25,799 --> 00:32:30,000
ais and the old couples getting together, and they're yeah,

605
00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:33,759
it's it's sophomoric. I fully admit it. That's okay, and

606
00:32:33,799 --> 00:32:37,720
I apologize, embrace it. But it's funny because I sent

607
00:32:37,799 --> 00:32:39,720
them to all my friends and they crack up. They're like,

608
00:32:39,799 --> 00:32:41,960
oh my god, they're giving you like courtesy, laugh emotion.

609
00:32:42,079 --> 00:32:44,319
No no no, no no, no, no no no. Because

610
00:32:44,359 --> 00:32:46,200
if you send something to somebody and they don't respond

611
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,160
to give you like give it a little thumbs up

612
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:48,440
on there.

613
00:32:49,079 --> 00:32:49,519
Speaker 4: No, no, no.

614
00:32:49,839 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 1: If you if you send something to somebody and they

615
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,079
don't respond to you, it's they just don't have an

616
00:32:54,079 --> 00:32:56,480
opinion about it, like you, Why did you waste my time?

617
00:32:56,559 --> 00:32:57,920
And why didn't I have to go look at my phone?

618
00:32:58,799 --> 00:33:00,519
Like in your case, I send you text all the

619
00:33:00,559 --> 00:33:03,720
time takes you days. That's not true. The last text

620
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,880
I sent to you by yourself, it took your thirty

621
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:10,200
six hours of responsey the Gambit member, I told you

622
00:33:10,279 --> 00:33:12,799
that that was That was a full thirty six No,

623
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,440
this is when you were coming back from the bathroom.

624
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,160
I have responded to that one. Ten forty No, you didn't.

625
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,200
Ten forty six is the Matt Thomas Show. Would ross uh,

626
00:33:20,559 --> 00:33:23,400
mctagart's gonna be with us tomorrow. Let's see Saturday. Yeah,

627
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,359
it was a good No, I wasn't thirty six hours.

628
00:33:27,279 --> 00:33:30,160
This is about twenty eight twenty eight hours between text.

629
00:33:33,039 --> 00:33:35,279
You sent it in the morning. I was se tomorrow.

630
00:33:35,359 --> 00:33:38,400
You can't send it when I'm sleeping. It was like

631
00:33:38,519 --> 00:33:40,920
eleven o'clock in the morning. Yeah, I was asleep on

632
00:33:41,039 --> 00:33:41,599
a Saturday.

633
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:42,039
Speaker 2: All I hear.

634
00:33:42,079 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: His excuse is Matt, honestly, Saturday, thank you on a Saturday.

635
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,960
I was asleep. I just don't get it coming up

636
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,319
in forty five minutes, right, all right, question we pose

637
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,079
to Gordy. He doesn't know it because he wasn't listening.

638
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,240
You're listening, all right? If Arch Manning now, don't you

639
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,279
don't use your sec bias. This is your college football

640
00:34:03,039 --> 00:34:04,000
somewhat expertise.

641
00:34:04,039 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 2: I think.

642
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,079
Speaker 1: If Arch is the most recognizable college football player in

643
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:16,239
the country today, who is number two? You seeing? It's

644
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,039
not an easy answer, is it most recognizable?

645
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 3: Yeah?

646
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 1: Because Arch can crush in an il you that'd be

647
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,800
money well spent. If you were a company and said, hey,

648
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,280
I want to put some money in Arch to say

649
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,199
at Texas if he stays there after this show.

650
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 9: Well, the new NCAA video game when you load it up,

651
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,440
the first two faces you see are Jeremiah Smith from

652
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:38,000
Ohio State and Ryan Williams, the freshman. They were both

653
00:34:38,039 --> 00:34:41,679
freshmen last year wide receiver at Alabama. So those two

654
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,119
guys I think will become because they they're both heading

655
00:34:45,119 --> 00:34:47,159
into their true sophomore seasons. We're going to see them

656
00:34:47,199 --> 00:34:49,159
for a whole another year. Ibis should we? And they

657
00:34:49,199 --> 00:34:52,679
have an answer yet, But I don't know. Drew Aller

658
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:57,880
at Penn State, Carson Beck at Miami, Eric Lessmyer from

659
00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,719
l s U was growing a little bit more.

660
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 1: Never heard of him. Nobody in La kW sagarian Nes

661
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,639
Myris not a soul. Nobody outside of Louisiana knows what

662
00:35:05,679 --> 00:35:05,880
he is.

663
00:35:06,079 --> 00:35:08,639
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean Colorado you had Shador and Travis Hunter

664
00:35:08,679 --> 00:35:09,480
and they're both gone.

665
00:35:09,639 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

666
00:35:10,079 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, But even cam Ward at Miami wasn't like a household.

667
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,119
Oh I know what that guy looks like.

668
00:35:15,159 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 1: I mean the least hype number one pick ever, Right, guys.

669
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,360
Speaker 9: You know who who's kind of under sneaky, underrated, Diego

670
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:22,920
Pavia at Vanderbilt.

671
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 10: Last year.

672
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: I think, oh I got a name for you. Connor

673
00:35:26,519 --> 00:35:30,000
Wigman will be the two guy in America now you're

674
00:35:30,039 --> 00:35:34,119
just sounding what ridiculous? Okay, I was looking for the

675
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,239
nicest word possible for a second. Okay, thank you.

676
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,119
Speaker 9: I'm trying to think of like the bit because even

677
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,960
Oregon's gonna have a new quarterback, Like yeah, I mean

678
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,480
it's you have a lot of newness around the world

679
00:35:45,519 --> 00:35:48,400
of college football kid club Nika Clemson. But I don't

680
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:49,960
think you know what he looks like when you see

681
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:54,480
his face. But it's Arch and the number whoever number

682
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,239
two is is off the map and it's Arching.

683
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: It's everybody else. Yeah, what do you think about Arch

684
00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:02,239
Mannings comments that he's going to stay at Texas.

685
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,320
Speaker 9: Yeah, but I've been hearing that for over a year now.

686
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:06,960
People can tell me that I've been trying to tell

687
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,920
that's a no dub. But here's the only thing the

688
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,000
caveat here. If Texas wins ten eleven games, they make

689
00:36:14,079 --> 00:36:16,800
the playoffs, and then let's just say, win the national

690
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:18,559
championship and he wins the Heisman.

691
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:19,119
Speaker 1: I don't care what happens.

692
00:36:19,159 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 10: I think he's gone. I think you can't do any

693
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:22,960
better than that.

694
00:36:23,119 --> 00:36:26,079
Speaker 9: That means beautiful, But this isn't a financial thing like

695
00:36:26,199 --> 00:36:28,920
he's the Mannings are set money, and then even if

696
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:30,800
he comes back for another year, the nil deals he

697
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:36,559
could get. So yeah, barring just a year of superb excellence,

698
00:36:37,119 --> 00:36:38,039
I think he's coming.

699
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:38,639
Speaker 1: Back for another year.

700
00:36:41,639 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 9: Can't wait now here. Here's my prediction. I've been saying

701
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,960
this all offseason. I think arts this year is good,

702
00:36:48,119 --> 00:36:51,199
not great. I think he's great in twenty twenty six.

703
00:36:52,039 --> 00:36:53,199
Speaker 1: I think that makes it.

704
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:54,760
Speaker 10: I think maybe like a nine.

705
00:36:54,639 --> 00:36:55,559
Speaker 1: And three season.

706
00:36:56,119 --> 00:36:58,320
Speaker 10: They have a couple of tough games all the row, he.

707
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,199
Speaker 9: Throws some picks in Georgia or on the road. But

708
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:02,840
I think we look back at the end of the year,

709
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,480
we go it was a really good first year. But

710
00:37:05,599 --> 00:37:08,559
here's what sucks. What sucks is we're in a narrative

711
00:37:08,639 --> 00:37:11,599
driven business in sports talk radio, in sports world. What's

712
00:37:11,599 --> 00:37:13,280
gonna happen when they go up and lose the opener

713
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:18,039
house statement, But what's the headline going to be? Arch overrated? Well,

714
00:37:18,119 --> 00:37:20,599
that's just overrated. It's like, no, they went and played

715
00:37:20,679 --> 00:37:21,840
one of the top teams.

716
00:37:21,559 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: On the road. I think it depends on how the

717
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,519
game plays out. I mean, yeah, if he throws for

718
00:37:24,559 --> 00:37:26,880
three hundred yards and three touchdowns and they lose, or

719
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:28,880
if he has a key. Yeah, it can.

720
00:37:29,559 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 10: They're gonna spind it arch good but not good enough.

721
00:37:32,159 --> 00:37:32,880
I know, you know what I mean.

722
00:37:35,679 --> 00:37:37,760
Speaker 1: We'll see right here.

723
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,519
Speaker 9: But if he has a four thousand yard season and

724
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,920
they're undefeated and they go to the playoffs and all this,

725
00:37:46,599 --> 00:37:47,760
I think there's a chance to go.

726
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it would take us out of that. And as

727
00:37:50,519 --> 00:37:52,440
mad As laid out, if it's like if if all

728
00:37:52,519 --> 00:37:54,800
that happens and the Saints are the number one team,

729
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,000
then then I could see him going out. But there's

730
00:37:58,119 --> 00:38:00,800
just no financial reason, not no financi injuries, but there's

731
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,599
not a huge financial incentive for him to leave Texas.

732
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,679
What about that and the Manning family, You can already

733
00:38:06,119 --> 00:38:08,960
Eli played all four years, Peyton Manning played all four years.

734
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,920
He's already not transferred. You can already tell that. Cooper

735
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,639
sat him down and said, Hey, you're a Manning. You're

736
00:38:13,679 --> 00:38:16,800
not going to be hitting the transfer portal fifty times.

737
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,719
You're going to go to school. You're gonna choose the

738
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:19,679
school that's right for you.

739
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 9: Well, you read about the upbringing where like exactly couldn't

740
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:24,800
have a cell phone in his room at night and

741
00:38:25,079 --> 00:38:26,159
to charge at Mama Dah.

742
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 1: He's marching to it. They're doing stuff old school with him.

743
00:38:29,119 --> 00:38:31,760
But I'll say this though, if he's one dash one,

744
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,920
there's no amount of money the nil can give him

745
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,880
that's going to match one dash one and he'll know that.

746
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 10: But he'll be one dash one the next year.

747
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,119
Speaker 1: You don't know that for sure. Probably, Yeah, there's no guarantee,

748
00:38:43,159 --> 00:38:45,480
a likelihood. Andrew luck was going to be one dash

749
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:47,280
one and then he stayed at Stanford and he came

750
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,360
back and he was the one dash one because he

751
00:38:49,519 --> 00:38:51,800
was he was also thought of as a generational prospect.

752
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:52,880
I'm not saying arch is there yet.

753
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,800
Speaker 9: Well, somebody told me they think in the twenty twenty

754
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,719
seven draft it will be DJ Lagway one Arch Manning too.

755
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:05,519
Speaker 1: That's why one. But then again, what's the difference between

756
00:39:05,559 --> 00:39:08,599
one dash one and one dash to contract? And then

757
00:39:08,679 --> 00:39:11,320
factoring and it does does he make enough in in

758
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,280
il to offset that? You know what we gotta think

759
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,400
about it is we just we have to not think

760
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,960
about the money because he doesn't need it. No, Uh,

761
00:39:18,639 --> 00:39:21,320
it's gonna be about local problem. Is you just again,

762
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,360
if you are a one dash one one dash too,

763
00:39:24,679 --> 00:39:26,719
you're not gonna be able to go. Oh this sounds attractive.

764
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,159
I'll go here, He's they're gonna be going somewhere where

765
00:39:29,199 --> 00:39:31,559
he's got to run for his life. New Orleans needs

766
00:39:31,559 --> 00:39:35,119
a quarterback. The Raiders need a quarterback, right or is

767
00:39:35,159 --> 00:39:36,360
Geno Smiths gonna be the answer that.

768
00:39:36,519 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 10: How did you buy in?

769
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 9: The dumbass as answer your own question? Dumb ask Colin

770
00:39:40,519 --> 00:39:41,639
cow heard a few weeks scusive.

771
00:39:41,679 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: Oh he's a part of the the iHeart family. You

772
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:45,119
say that horrible?

773
00:39:45,199 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 11: He said.

774
00:39:45,559 --> 00:39:48,679
Speaker 9: The has Looms are close with Sabin and the Mannings.

775
00:39:49,119 --> 00:39:52,239
The Browns are gonna tank and they're gonna hire Sabin

776
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,599
with the guarantee that Arch is gonna go number one

777
00:39:54,639 --> 00:39:56,800
to them and it's gonna be Arch manning in Cleveland

778
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,719
with Nick Saban, coach.

779
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 1: He said it was widely not There was no way

780
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,320
Colin would have said that absolutely out.

781
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,760
Speaker 10: We played the audio wretched.

782
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:14,719

pretty hot, but you know it's a completely covered with

818
00:42:02,039 --> 00:42:06,760
like a little missing stations. No, I'm good then, okay, Uh,

819
00:42:07,039 --> 00:42:09,480
tomorrow's game is not on television, so if you want

820
00:42:09,559 --> 00:42:11,400
to watch the game, you should go out the Tiger

821
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,920
Brewing and catch the rappele Rev feed. Oh, I got

822
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,440

823
00:42:18,559 --> 00:42:21,360
You you subscribe and unbscribe every every time the astros

824
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,800

825
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,920
I can't do it again today. So you're not gonna

826
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,639
watch the game? Figure some skip it. Figure the out

827
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,920
one hundred and sixty two. You're fill other way. Oh,

828
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,360
you're go go to the illegal streams with the porn

829
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,800
bots and stuff. Okay, yeah, you're your cam girl, gave

830
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:44,480
me a link? Who did you're cam girl? Stop? All right? Uh?

831
00:42:44,679 --> 00:42:48,199
The big issue of the day c J. Gardner Johnson

832
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:52,559
Texas day God John Texans safety hurt today at Texans

833
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,079
practice at UH in West Virginia.

834
00:42:56,039 --> 00:42:56,159
Speaker 12: UH.

835
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,320
Speaker 1: We will try to get some clarification from the coaches

836
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:00,920
when they visit and they get wrap up in a

837
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:05,400
few minutes. Aaron Wilson is there for a Channel two

838
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,519
and doesn't work with us occasionally, so we're going to

839
00:43:07,559 --> 00:43:09,679
talk with him coming up in a few minutes. He

840
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:15,880
was there to see CJ. Garner Johnson go down. These

841
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:20,719
were taken according to those on site, and went right

842
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,119
to the card. Did not you know, didn't try to

843
00:43:23,159 --> 00:43:25,000
stand up, walk on anything like that. He went right

844
00:43:25,039 --> 00:43:26,880
to the card. So if you know, you know, which

845
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,480
is not a good situation on that, especially for a

846
00:43:29,599 --> 00:43:34,400
situation where that position is beset by suspensions and or injuries.

847
00:43:35,559 --> 00:43:38,440
So Aaron will give us more details on the depth

848
00:43:38,559 --> 00:43:40,719
chart how severe it is. And I mean again, I

849
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,079
don't expect the Texans to say anything about the situation

850
00:43:43,159 --> 00:43:45,960
because it literally happened about an hour ago. So unless

851
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,400
they have the world's best MRI people there probably hard

852
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,519
to be figuring out what happens. They could, they did,

853
00:43:51,639 --> 00:43:55,199
They should based on those commercials I see all the time. No,

854
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,840
don't you usually from death totist. Don't you typically let

855
00:43:59,039 --> 00:44:01,360
the swallowing go down first before you do the m R.

856
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:05,679
I probably yes, from someone who toward the last year. Hey,

857
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:07,280
when you hear them, you did you have an MRI

858
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:07,599
on that?

859
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:08,159
Speaker 2: Yeah?

860
00:44:08,159 --> 00:44:10,280
Speaker 1: I had multiple. You don't have to put your head

861
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,760
through the thing. Do you now that one is lower extremities?

862
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,000
You got your your but you might as well get

863
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,320
a full body skin, right, Yeah? I think you know what? No,

864
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,679
I think the first time as we did the whole thing.

865
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,719
I had one MRI in my life. It was one

866
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,719
of the worst experiences of my entire life. Why because

867
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,519
I'm a little claustrophobic, and until I realized that restless

868
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,519
lot claustrophobic, you get the restless leg syndrome, and so

869
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:39,000
not only is it claustrophobic, but it's a lot of noise.

870
00:44:39,039 --> 00:44:41,199
They give you these headphones to listen to music, but

871
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,679
you can't put on a Little Man alone.

872
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:45,280
Speaker 10: Just chill out.

873
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: I wish now, let me ask you this, and I'm

874
00:44:49,519 --> 00:44:51,719
I'm I'm asking this because of ignorance. Can they give

875
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,559
you something just to put you, like to not to sleep,

876
00:44:53,599 --> 00:44:56,639
but just to really relax. Wait, not euthanize it. And

877
00:44:56,679 --> 00:44:58,159
I don't want to I don't want to die. Sorry,

878
00:44:58,199 --> 00:45:02,400
I'm sorry anesthetize you whatever. Yeah, that was weird. You

879
00:45:02,519 --> 00:45:07,400
know what I meant? Anesthesia? Yeah, like if I I'm

880
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,159
not a gummy user, but with a couple of gummies

881
00:45:09,159 --> 00:45:11,199
helping the situation out a little bit or maybe yeah,

882
00:45:12,559 --> 00:45:14,360
that's what I'm saying. Maybe I'm forgetting even more. They

883
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,599
called you gummy Thomas, because what they say is if

884
00:45:16,639 --> 00:45:18,400
you move in this thing, they got to start all over.

885
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,960
And I'm like, oh, hell, so I got it out,

886
00:45:21,079 --> 00:45:24,039
but it just and then the open MRI is a

887
00:45:24,119 --> 00:45:25,800
scam too. It's just open to the side. It's not

888
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:30,639
really it's not like you feel like you're in a scammed. Yeah.

889
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:35,400
They're also more expensive too. And then the guy that

890
00:45:35,559 --> 00:45:37,199
had the chain on it got sucked in by the

891
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:40,239
MRI machine. That's not a great little and a goodal story. Yeah,

892
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,199
one good thing. You took it off your piece and chain. Yeah,

893
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,480
like a twenty pound chain on them though. Yeah. Do

894
00:45:47,519 --> 00:45:49,840
you think he went in that room without anybody saying

895
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,800
anything or somebody just committed malpractice or what I mean

896
00:45:53,199 --> 00:45:55,960
somebody had No, I didn't make any sense. Where was this?

897
00:45:56,119 --> 00:45:59,840
Was this in America? Yes, they had to. Haven't been

898
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:02,880
a explained to him? Somebody had. I mean, if you

899
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,679
work at an MRI procedure exactly, it's gonna be like

900
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,880
the first thing you learned after turning the power on. Yeah, right,

901
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,199
you turned power this is yes, beautifully explain the Matthew

902
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,719
rule one, turn the power on, rule two, take your

903
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:19,199
jewelry off? Yeah? Everything, Yeah, but yes, you're you're in

904
00:46:19,199 --> 00:46:22,840
there butt ass naked. No, okay, you said everything. Well,

905
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,480
I mean not like I'm not getting naked in the

906
00:46:24,599 --> 00:46:26,960
MRI machine. I'm not kind of that kind of person

907
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,400
thinking about that. No, I just if I didn't know,

908
00:46:30,679 --> 00:46:32,320
I don't need an MRI, I knock out what hope?

909
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,800
I don't need it anymore again. But the MRI open

910
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,360
MRI looks like a scam. The closed MRI definitely was.

911
00:46:37,679 --> 00:46:42,360
It's not good, all right? So CJ. Garner Johnson being

912
00:46:42,599 --> 00:46:44,800
tended to and we'll hopefully get update from Aaron Wilson.

913
00:46:45,039 --> 00:46:47,000
He's gonna text when he's running to talk, so we'll

914
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,079
wait for him to give us an update on that

915
00:46:49,199 --> 00:46:50,679
excellent way. If I just don't get it, come up

916
00:46:50,679 --> 00:46:54,360
at eleven thirty today, I don't see if I have

917
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:59,519
anything written down for this week. So if I say CJ.

918
00:46:59,639 --> 00:47:02,239
Garner Johnson's done for your art, is the average fan

919
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,280
bumping around town going, oh my god? Or are they like,

920
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,760
who's CJ. Garner Johnson? I don't know.

921
00:47:09,119 --> 00:47:09,599
Speaker 2: I don't know.

922
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:14,280
Speaker 1: You're asking. There's a lot of Texans fans they're coming back. Yeah,

923
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:18,320
i'd I would say the name would at least ring

924
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,480
a bell. They say, who is that? That sounds familiar? Yeah,

925
00:47:20,519 --> 00:47:23,239
it's like I know, I can't place it because he

926
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,679
hasn't done anything yet for the Texans. And I would

927
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,280
say that most Texans fans had no idea who was

928
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,079
until he signed here, Like, oh, he's the loud guy

929
00:47:31,159 --> 00:47:34,440
to play for the Eagles. Okay, he helped. I don't know,

930
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,920
we'll see. I always feel like and maybe A Ross

931
00:47:38,079 --> 00:47:41,079
is just a miscalculation of my part that the that

932
00:47:42,199 --> 00:47:43,840
like we get we get in the weeds on the

933
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,800
Astros because we have the Astros games on and maybe

934
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:48,400
if we had the Texans game we would get way

935
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,559
more in the weeds on them. But for just doing

936
00:47:51,639 --> 00:47:53,440
a show that talks about a little bit about everything,

937
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,000
I think people really care about who the running back is,

938
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,760
who the wide receiver is, who the quarterback is, and

939
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,440
maybe who the number like Will Anderson. People know who

940
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:06,280
Will Anderson is, yes, but I don't think there's a

941
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,119
lot of people at I hope he's a great year

942
00:48:09,159 --> 00:48:12,199
this year. It's not in our job description to educate people,

943
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:13,199
but I tried.

944
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 13: I mean.

945
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: We we and we talk about this Matt even off air,

946
00:48:20,039 --> 00:48:23,400
like figuring out what our audience wants to hear. But

947
00:48:23,519 --> 00:48:26,320
also if if there are people who are uneducated or

948
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,599
don't know about things, it's I don't know, it's an

949
00:48:29,639 --> 00:48:32,639
interesting My general thought is on the offensive line, I

950
00:48:32,679 --> 00:48:35,840
mentioned to you last week, just protect the quarterback. It

951
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,320
doesn't matter who they are up front. Yeah. Well, also

952
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,400
because if he had five Allo pros up front, that

953
00:48:40,519 --> 00:48:42,360
the fans would know who they are. And Laramie Tunsil

954
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,440
was a recognizable person, yes, and Titus Howard was recognizable

955
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:46,920
too because of the fact that he was a first

956
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:48,599
round pick. You got it in the first round pick.

957
00:48:48,639 --> 00:48:50,639
You always got to keep an eye on, yes, and

958
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,920
expectation levels are very high. Kenyon Green. It was a

959
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,920
first round pick. Now even who ken hardly played well.

960
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,800
If a guy's getting crushed every single uh, it because

961
00:49:00,119 --> 00:49:02,000
because it will happen and they'll get noticed on TV.

962
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,960
Kenyon Green was the name was used a lot on

963
00:49:05,079 --> 00:49:08,280
TV broadcast last year, and not because he was making

964
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,199
great stocks. Oh, text the game of a sade? How

965
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:11,880
did you Kenyon Green? Okay, and that makes a lot

966
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,760
of sense. Uh, look at Kenyon Green getting moved like

967
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:19,679
he's a pass blocking sled. This is not good like tomorrow.

968
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,440
Let's do this. Let's go tomorrow. We'rekt talier brewing. Let's

969
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:24,840
just go. We like to say hi toitar listeners during

970
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,719
a break, Okay, walk up and saying you know what

971
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:29,360
your thought about Ced Carner Johnson? What do you think

972
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:41,559
about lacln Tomlinson liacn mm hmm. It's an interesting first name. Yes, dude,

973
00:49:42,079 --> 00:49:44,880
what percentage of people that we see tomorrow at Tiger boning?

974
00:49:45,039 --> 00:49:46,239
The what position he plays?

975
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 6: Wow?

976
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 1: How many brews are they in?

977
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 2: Ooh?

978
00:49:50,519 --> 00:49:54,000
Speaker 1: Like actually, I feel like I pull better random names

979
00:49:54,039 --> 00:49:56,880
when I've had a few. I do that with old

980
00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,960
Astro players. Yeah, like I can give you a Tai game.

981
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,039
I don't know who the hell that is, see, but

982
00:50:03,079 --> 00:50:04,480
I'm sober imagine I'm going to be if I had

983
00:50:04,519 --> 00:50:05,119
three four beers.

984
00:50:05,199 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 3: Huh.

985
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 1: I've been pulling out a Tony Scott for you, Little Paul,

986
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:15,119
Little Paul Bocco, Paul Bacco, Brent Myers, Hey, Tommy was

987
00:50:15,119 --> 00:50:19,360
a round Rando, Tommy Manzela, Charlton Jimmerson and whatnot. Oh

988
00:50:19,559 --> 00:50:22,159
my god, we are sowing the weeds on the tech Astros. Now,

989
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,639
what's wrong with us? Astro Fanly? Look, if you're a

990
00:50:25,679 --> 00:50:27,719
fan of a team, and I would consider myself a

991
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:31,840
diehard Astros fan, I'm gonna know more about them as

992
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,559
compared to being just an observer of the Texans. You've

993
00:50:34,639 --> 00:50:37,000
got work due because you're now better and ross and

994
00:50:37,079 --> 00:50:38,760
you've got to get you gotta get your grips on

995
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,719
the entire I've always followed the team, I just haven't

996
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,559
been a fan. But now you are. Nothing's gonna stop

997
00:50:45,599 --> 00:50:48,519
you now. Ain't no stop at us now, baby, divisional round,

998
00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:50,760
let's go. We're going back ten back to back to

999
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:54,320
back Divisional round ten and seven. Is the bar in

1000
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:56,719
a three point thirty start on a Saturday. That's the bar, baby,

1001
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,519
I'm Peacock. By the way, we have a bet about that.

1002
00:50:58,599 --> 00:51:01,760
Do you remember I don't I have three thirty Saturday?

1003
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:04,320
You have the field I believe for this year if

1004
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:05,239
they make the playoffs.

1005
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:05,599
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1006
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:07,679
Speaker 1: Now, the only way I win this is they playing

1007
00:51:07,679 --> 00:51:13,000
the Chiefs or they play somebody really recognizable. See if

1008
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,320
they put the charge about that bet right now, I'm terrible.

1009
00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:18,039
If they play the Chargers on toast. If they play

1010
00:51:18,679 --> 00:51:24,000
the Bengals, I'm toast Baltimore, I'm probably toast.

1011
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:26,079
Speaker 14: Uh.

1012
00:51:26,199 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: They went I could play Baltimore in a wild card,

1013
00:51:28,039 --> 00:51:30,880
but I mean they could. But so I get the field,

1014
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,360
you get three thirty. Yeah, dang, I'm gonna lose that bet. Mean,

1015
00:51:34,519 --> 00:51:36,760
let me, I'll go find the archives Homely, I'm pull

1016
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:38,639
up the Nostra Wrungus file. No, no, no, I think

1017
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:40,639
I think we absolutely better. I put it in the file.

1018
00:51:40,679 --> 00:51:42,639
But I just had to get the specifics. Did I

1019
00:51:42,679 --> 00:51:43,119
get odds?

1020
00:51:44,119 --> 00:51:44,159
Speaker 5: No?

1021
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,639
Speaker 1: Dang, I don't know what you I think you were.

1022
00:51:46,639 --> 00:51:48,719
Because they announced Peacock was gonna be on and I

1023
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:50,519
don't know you thought they were gonna be on Monday

1024
00:51:50,599 --> 00:51:52,639
or something. I don't know what you were thinking. Yeah,

1025
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,559
uh oh. The dog's name was Frank. Just tweet at me.

1026
00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,679
I've had one MRI and they put me under. Only

1027
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:01,280
way is going to get done. No way in hell

1028
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,360
I'm doing that a week. Thank you. The dog's name

1029
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,480
was Frank Marty. All right for the for the bet,

1030
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:10,239
I have Saturday three thirty or no playoffs? Oh your toast,

1031
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:15,719
You are so toast, you have to feel. I don't

1032
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,079
know what he was drinking that day. Usually, I'm pretty

1033
00:52:18,079 --> 00:52:19,840
proud of my bets. By why I'm feeling better by

1034
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,199
Kyle Tucker? Oh are you walking out of tippet? No,

1035
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,119
I'm not going up it. We're gonna keep it status quo.

1036
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,719
All right, it's already got a fast food meal for

1037
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,559
us and bochi. Yeah, I'm not go when I got

1038
00:52:29,559 --> 00:52:31,119
to owe you buy you a restaurant next time?

1039
00:52:31,199 --> 00:52:31,280
Speaker 15: Or what?

1040
00:52:32,519 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 1: It's one franchise.

1041
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:34,840
Speaker 3: Eight that's a lot.

1042
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:39,559
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Seven's a lot. Seven seems manageable. Look up

1043
00:52:39,639 --> 00:52:42,280
one projection for his contract you're gonna see or thirteen

1044
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,440
years that's but they were saying the same thing about pregnant,

1045
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:48,159
and I was about that. You're right, who's this girl

1046
00:52:48,199 --> 00:52:51,400
on TV? She looks like Alicia Silverstone? No, she does not.

1047
00:52:52,639 --> 00:52:54,000
She's got a new TV show off. She was on

1048
00:52:54,039 --> 00:52:56,159
the Today Show this morning. I am I have had

1049
00:52:56,199 --> 00:53:00,280
a massive crush on Alicia Silverstone for a long time. Yeah,

1050
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,280
she's al Teimer. What do you put her in the

1051
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,719
on the all time rank? She's tier two? Who's who's

1052
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:12,119
joining her in tier two? More importantly, if Sophia Fgar

1053
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:17,360
is in tier one? Tier one? Is Sofia Vergara, Scarlett, Johansson,

1054
00:53:17,519 --> 00:53:22,079
Jessica Alba. M hm, like the we're talking the we're

1055
00:53:22,119 --> 00:53:26,119
talking like all Timer's five rings, ten All Pros Hall

1056
00:53:26,159 --> 00:53:30,159
of Fame first ballot. At least she's so stoned. What

1057
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:35,800
tier you getting? Nicole Kidman in lesser than probably Kidman

1058
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:42,679
though she was putting up numbers, Maddie, same category. Jeez,

1059
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,079
we'll think about this during the break. I just don't

1060
00:53:45,079 --> 00:53:47,159
get it coming up at eleven thirty seven one three

1061
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,239
two one two five seven out if you want to

1062
00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,440
chime in in seven one three two one two five

1063
00:53:51,519 --> 00:53:54,639
so many somebody else gotta have some like their Silverstone?

1064
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:58,360
How about Sarah Uh, not Sarah Uh. Jennifer love HEWITTT.

1065
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,000
I mean tier two. Think of the bowl of oatmeal

1066
00:54:02,039 --> 00:54:07,679
these days, tier three or two two? Ooh, think about it. Seven.

1067
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,119
She's had like two primes. Yeah, she had been like

1068
00:54:11,199 --> 00:54:13,000
Kurt Warner. She had twenty one year old prime and

1069
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,320
then she got forty one year old prime like Kurt

1070
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:20,599
Warner with the Cardinals. Right now, hear that no other

1071
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,280
radio show in the marketplace is gonna's gonna put Sarah,

1072
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,280
Michelle Geller, and Kurt Warner in the same conversation. Learn

1073
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:30,400
twenty one Sports Talk seven ninety literally moments ago. Jamiko

1074
00:54:30,559 --> 00:54:33,599
Ryans on what happened with c J. Garner Johnson.

1075
00:54:34,679 --> 00:54:37,639
Speaker 13: Of course, it's you know, it's heartbreaking when you see

1076
00:54:37,679 --> 00:54:39,360
a guy go down on the field like that and

1077
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:42,599
doesn't get up quickly. So I'm always, you know, nervous

1078
00:54:42,639 --> 00:54:46,440
as a head coach anytime I see anybody hit the ground. It's, uh,

1079
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,840
it's tough to watch. So we'll see, you know, we'll

1080
00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:53,760
evaluate CJ, see where he is. But no update at

1081
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:54,159
this time.

1082
00:54:54,599 --> 00:54:58,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, no surprise. I mean I wouldn't expect anything, but again,

1083
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,880
we've done this a few times that life watching about

1084
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,039
players getting caught up the field and guys on their knees.

1085
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,119
And my guess is CJ was screaming in agony. Now

1086
00:55:06,159 --> 00:55:13,159
he just doesn't help. Yeah, it doesn't sound good. There's

1087
00:55:13,519 --> 00:55:17,800
no little to no reason for optimism right now for

1088
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:22,639
him being out a significant amount of time. Hopefully you

1089
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,079
get some kind of news that it's not the A

1090
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:30,119
words Achilles or acl Yeah. Yeah, that's too bad, because again,

1091
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:33,159
I you know, look, he did bring in some swagger

1092
00:55:33,679 --> 00:55:35,960
for a limited time he was here. He knows what

1093
00:55:36,079 --> 00:55:38,119
it's like to win a championship, having done so with

1094
00:55:38,199 --> 00:55:38,639
the Eagles.

1095
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:39,280
Speaker 9: Hmmm.

1096
00:55:40,119 --> 00:55:43,320
Speaker 1: Now, his history is he wears out his welcome fairly

1097
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:47,320
quickly no matter where he goes. But it wasn't like

1098
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:49,440
he wasn't on the field. It wasn't like he didn't play.

1099
00:55:50,199 --> 00:55:52,360
It wasn't like he wasn't an integral part of the

1100
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,760
Eagles winning the championship last year. And you know what, frankly,

1101
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,199
once in a while you want to I mean, look,

1102
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,159
the textans right day was Stefan Diggs last year trying

1103
00:56:00,159 --> 00:56:02,320
to bring an electro moxy to the team. And you know,

1104
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:05,719
the injury to Digs ultimately his a C L maybe

1105
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,079
maybe if he maybe if you're just a little bit

1106
00:56:08,119 --> 00:56:15,840
of a smart smart ass. Uh red ass. Yeah, okay,

1107
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:17,960
if you're a red ass, maybe you just where the

1108
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,840
Texans gear is not what you're supposed to do. Think

1109
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:23,559
about this. Okay, stay with me on this. Let's talk

1110
00:56:23,559 --> 00:56:27,159
about the famous red asses in Texans history. Okay, Okay,

1111
00:56:28,199 --> 00:56:31,679
ed Reed Harley he wasn't a red ass. He was

1112
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,920
just past his prime. He was old ass, he was

1113
00:56:35,159 --> 00:56:37,519
washed ass. But I mean he was brought in because

1114
00:56:37,559 --> 00:56:40,719
of the pedigree. Robert c McNair wanted in there, like, hey,

1115
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,360
beat the Patriots, and we're gonna beat the Patriots. Now,

1116
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,559
well they're not even face the Patriots, all right, so

1117
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,719
you're taking him off the board. Yes, Stefan Diggs full

1118
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:54,360
of games. Okay. J Watt was head button people. He was,

1119
00:56:55,559 --> 00:56:58,880
but he's Ran Cushing was a red ass. But he

1120
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:05,960
was also pregnant human ganetotropin. You remembered that, Yeah, you don't,

1121
00:57:06,119 --> 00:57:10,039
HCD No, it comes from the urine of pregnant women.

1122
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,000
We have Bill Romanowski on talking about that. I might

1123
00:57:13,079 --> 00:57:15,760
still have that drop. How about the fact that Bob

1124
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:19,880
McNair went up to New York to defend him. He

1125
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:23,280
gets in Goodell's office and literally McNair is told to

1126
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:27,920
turn around and go back home. Overtrained athlete syndrome. Do

1127
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,679
you feel like a bad person, like when you're a

1128
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:32,400
kid or some are you lied about something, or you

1129
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:34,519
lied on your brother or cousin or whatever, and then

1130
00:57:34,559 --> 00:57:36,159
you get people to believe it and you're like, ooh,

1131
00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,559
well I'm about this. This feels worse, maggib you analogy.

1132
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,960
He went to go see Goodell. His ap poement was

1133
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,679
on Friday. He went up there a day early by accident.

1134
00:57:47,119 --> 00:57:49,199
Godell said all right, come on in here, and the

1135
00:57:49,239 --> 00:57:52,079
conversation was five minutes long. I mean I felt terrible

1136
00:57:52,119 --> 00:57:54,199
for hi. Yeah, we have audio from that. Actually go ahead,

1137
00:57:55,239 --> 00:58:00,440
Well no we don't. I'm my computer's reason doing Matt

1138
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:05,039
Ship took my ass up. Man, we're on ten second

1139
00:58:05,079 --> 00:58:08,280
delay here. Sorry you you tease? Yeah? Oh I see

1140

my gosh, would you consider Dante Robinson to be one? No,

1148
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:40,840

1150
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:47,000
Courtland Finnegan, Andrey Johnson was a red ass that Sunday.

1151
00:58:47,159 --> 00:58:50,840
That was one time in his entire NFL career. See

1152
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,400
now you're uh we go back to like what's his name? Walker?

Speaker 6: Was it?

1154
00:58:54,679 --> 00:58:58,719
Speaker 1: Greg Walker? Gary Walker, Gary Walker, Aaron Glenn wasn't? He

00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:03,400
was just great, nim It's a legend, that's the thing

1156
00:59:03,519 --> 00:59:06,320
ross this friend stop. Well, first of all, if you

1157
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,559
remember at the beginning of that, they didn't want anybody

1158
00:59:08,599 --> 00:59:11,800
who was controversial because to my greater point, there just

1159
00:59:12,039 --> 00:59:13,639
hasn't been a lot of that. We haven't had a

1160
00:59:13,719 --> 00:59:16,880
lot of the Oh here comes not like trouble, but

1161
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:20,760

1162
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,440
all share, here's kind of a red ass. He also

1163
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:28,239
got suspended. Trevor Lawrence asked this NFL suspension list. You know,

1164
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,719
it's the first time I've ever heard the phrase red ass.

1165
00:59:32,199 --> 00:59:33,239
It's kind of a country dude.

1166
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:33,400
Speaker 3: Turn.

1167
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:36,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, man, he got that red ass.

1168
00:59:36,559 --> 00:59:38,719
Do you do you understand the context of it? Yeah?

1169
00:59:39,559 --> 00:59:42,079
Does it fit? I just never heard of it?

1170
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:42,960
Speaker 12: Girl?

1171
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 1: That what remember him? Stop? How about Brandon Harris? Bill

1172
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:53,000
Brian was a red ass. Players staged a coup. He

1173
00:59:53,119 --> 00:59:58,320
hit it everybody. The best one was when the Texans

1174
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:00,719
went to Seattle many years ago and Wayne Brown's like,

1175
01:00:01,039 --> 01:00:03,360
we ain't going up there until this this this gets

1176
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,559
figured out. Dwayne Brown was a red ass with the

1177
01:00:05,639 --> 01:00:08,679
McNair family. Yeah, for those three that are Dayne Brown,

1178
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:10,639
fans don't expect him in the Hall of Honor, or

1179
01:00:10,719 --> 01:00:12,360
the Ring of Honor, whatever the o they're calling it.

1180
01:00:14,119 --> 01:00:14,519
That's the thing.

1181
01:00:14,599 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 10: Ross.

1182
01:00:15,119 --> 01:00:18,159
Speaker 1: What about Brett the hitman, hartman punter? He had red ass.

1183
01:00:18,239 --> 01:00:19,760
You can't suit the organization?

1184
01:00:20,039 --> 01:00:20,639
Speaker 3: Well he was.

1185
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 1: He was spearing returnment and then he sued them when

1186
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,360
he ripped his knee on the turf. That's some red ass.

1187
01:00:28,159 --> 01:00:33,079
You're threatening litigation. Got some red ass in you, Yeah,

1188
01:00:33,159 --> 01:00:35,400

red ass, that is for sure, all right, That that

1190
01:00:39,079 --> 01:00:45,239
includes our crazy red ass test Ryan Fitzpatrick. Stop. Remember

1191
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:48,199

that they can use our friends. It's time to say

1224
01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:54,039
I just don't get it. All right. This is a

1225
01:02:54,079 --> 01:02:55,960
part of our week where we kind of just get

1226
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,719
philosophical on you. Russell had the update on the astros

1227
01:03:00,039 --> 01:03:03,320
un the update on CJ. Gardner Johnson. If you're not

1228
01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:05,719
heard again, Aaron Wilson's going to stop by via the

1229
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:07,760
phone here from West Virginia at some point the next

1230
01:03:08,599 --> 01:03:12,000
I'm guess the next hour or so. Rossie. There's been

1231
01:03:12,039 --> 01:03:15,559
a lot of reports about Las Vegas taking a twelve

1232
01:03:15,599 --> 01:03:23,280
percent drop in their revenue to the city, and everybody

1233
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,360
and their mother is attributing that to the overall general

1234
01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:32,039
economy of this country. And I say, I just don't

1235
01:03:32,079 --> 01:03:36,119
get it. And I'll tell you the reasons why I

1236
01:03:36,239 --> 01:03:39,760
think people are going away from Las Vegas for multiple

1237
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:44,360
reasons in no particular order. One, gambling is now available

1238
01:03:44,519 --> 01:03:46,679
in just about every state in this Union or within

1239
01:03:46,719 --> 01:03:49,239
a stone's throw case in Point Houston to Lake Charles.

1240
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:52,119
It's easier to get to Lake Charles, and it is

1241
01:03:52,119 --> 01:03:55,480
to get to Las Vegas. Now, you and me, especially me,

1242
01:03:55,639 --> 01:03:57,800
I love Las Vegas, love every time I go. I'll

1243
01:03:57,840 --> 01:04:01,840
never merge the city, I'll smrch. But the reality is,

1244
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,559
if I need a gambling fix, I'm going to go

1245
01:04:04,639 --> 01:04:06,400
get mine in Like Charles, a lot faster than I

1246
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:10,880
can by paying hotel, airfare, ubers whatever to get to

1247
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:16,199
Las Vegas. Number two, Las Vegas has service charged the

1248
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,559
hell out of people, so it's no fees. It's no

1249
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,880
longer a economical place to go. If you want to

1250
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:30,599
go to Las Vegas, eat hotel service, fees, tips, food cost.

1251
01:04:32,199 --> 01:04:33,960
People are spending their money to go to Hawaii, or

1252
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,159
people are going to Jamaica or people going to Mexico

1253
01:04:36,239 --> 01:04:41,119
for all inclusive. If I don't care about gambling, I'm

1254
01:04:41,199 --> 01:04:43,360
not going to Las Vegas because it's not any more

1255
01:04:43,719 --> 01:04:46,840
of a easier place to go on the cheap like

1256
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:48,760
twenty five years ago, you go to Las Vegas and

1257
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,039
the cheap you could go on a discount airline, you

1258
01:04:51,039 --> 01:04:53,159
can get the room rates were really good. They weren't

1259
01:04:53,199 --> 01:04:55,400
charging any thirty nine dollars a day for internet and

1260
01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:58,000
phones and all that kind of stuff. And number three,

1261
01:04:59,199 --> 01:05:02,000
the reason why Las Vegas is struggling is because what

1262
01:05:02,159 --> 01:05:05,760
Las Vegas has done to market itself is to market

1263
01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:09,320
between the ages of say eighteen and thirty and eighteen

1264
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:11,079
and thirty year olds are going to Las Vegas to

1265
01:05:11,199 --> 01:05:16,960
do what dance, swim and drink. They're not going to gamble.

1266
01:05:18,119 --> 01:05:20,760
Las Vegas has lost the identity of the people who

1267
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,320
want to do things in Las Vegas that makes in

1268
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:25,760
the most money, and that is to gamble. So that's

1269
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,079
part of marketing of Las Vegas's fault. Part of it

1270
01:05:29,239 --> 01:05:31,719
is because of the fact that you get so many

1271
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:35,280
different options that are closer to home. And number three,

1272
01:05:36,159 --> 01:05:39,599
you've added all these fees and side charges that doesn't

1273
01:05:39,639 --> 01:05:41,800
make it an economical place for people to go. And

1274
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,079
I'm talking about people that fly there, people that live

1275
01:05:44,119 --> 01:05:46,480
in La They're not running Vegas anymore because it's just

1276
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:50,239
not the affordable goodaway. So I say, to those that

1277
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:54,400
are attributing the national economy to Las Vegas downturn, I say,

1278
01:05:54,480 --> 01:06:01,679
I just don't get it. Sorry, Okay, so you're saying,

1279
01:06:03,559 --> 01:06:06,320
I'm saying the national economy has nothing to do with

1280
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:09,559
the reason why Las Vegas is down. In my mind,

1281
01:06:11,199 --> 01:06:16,480
I think it's part of it. I think are our

1282
01:06:17,119 --> 01:06:21,360
airfares down down if you do it long enough in

1283
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:24,360
advance air first night as a whole, I don't know. Yeah,

1284
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:28,840
I mean, apparently Las Vegas revenues are down. I think

1285
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:30,480
part of it does have to do with young kids

1286
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:32,679
these days who just grew up in their phones. You

1287
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:35,679
have more people are introverted, more people who are asocial

1288
01:06:37,079 --> 01:06:40,599
and eat or have and or have social anxiety, who

1289
01:06:40,599 --> 01:06:42,400
don't grow up gambling, and if you do, if you

1290
01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:44,159
want to gamble with the broskies, you're just doing a

1291
01:06:44,199 --> 01:06:52,719
bunch of parlays, which is legal in like thirty something states. So, yeah,

1292
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:57,559
it makes perfect sense to me that that Vegas' revenues

1293
01:06:57,599 --> 01:06:59,719
are down. Used to get really good comps back in

1294
01:06:59,719 --> 01:07:02,280
the day. You know this, Matt, Yeah, you could get

1295
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,039
you could play blackjack, you know, twenty five fifty dollars

1296
01:07:05,079 --> 01:07:06,400
a hand, and you might get a room. You might

1297
01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:08,559
get a half. The reason why Las Vegas is down

1298
01:07:08,639 --> 01:07:10,280
is because it's Las Vegas's fault, not that, not the

1299
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:13,400
national economy's fault. That's my thought. They squeeze a lot

1300
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:15,760
of things, and they built all these massive things that

1301
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:19,159
they have to pay to maintain and operate, and then

1302
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:21,840
that cost gets passed down to you. And so, like

1303
01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:24,280
you said, they add resort fees, they add all these

1304
01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,039
other fees. They give you worse odds on games. You

1305
01:07:27,159 --> 01:07:29,960
can't hardly find three to two blackjack on the strip

1306
01:07:30,079 --> 01:07:33,440
unless you're betting fifty dollars a hand. Not that everybody's

1307
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:36,039
caring about that, but I'm not a big care of it.

1308
01:07:36,079 --> 01:07:38,559
But I understand where you are now. So you know

1309
01:07:38,679 --> 01:07:43,920
it's it's Vegas's fault, not because the price of eggs

1310
01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:46,079
has gone up or the price of a hamburger has

1311
01:07:46,079 --> 01:07:48,719
gone up. What I think you could be go hand

1312
01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:51,320
in hand. You have fewer money, less money for trips.

1313
01:07:51,599 --> 01:07:54,840
It becomes less appetizing. I go spit because you're going.

1314
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,440
Because you know this, Matt. When you go to Vegas

1315
01:07:57,480 --> 01:08:00,079
and you say I'm gonna bring fifteen hundred dollars, they

1316
01:08:00,119 --> 01:08:03,159
mentally you say, I can afford to lose all of

1317
01:08:03,239 --> 01:08:08,199
that money, right, So Vegas trips inherently come with an

1318
01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:13,840
extra risk of money loss. I just see, I'm not

1319
01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:15,760
gonna lose fifteen hundred bucks in the beach. I think

1320
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:19,399
our are our planes are full across this country, Our

1321
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:23,359
hotels are full, our highways are full. People are still

1322
01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:26,600
figuring out ways to vacation. And if you are competing

1323
01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:31,840
against Orlando and the Beach in Los Angeles and Chicago

1324
01:08:32,199 --> 01:08:34,199
and New York or as Gordy went to Boston this

1325
01:08:34,279 --> 01:08:36,640
past week and hung out for seven eight days, did

1326
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:39,000
he hit the encore? I don't think he hit the encore.

1327
01:08:39,039 --> 01:08:41,560
I hit the OnCore. Point being is this You've got

1328
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:44,439
to make it a destination that comes across as affordable,

1329
01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:46,920
and Las Vegas is no longer affordable. Shame on you,

1330
01:08:47,239 --> 01:08:51,359
Las Vegas done. Yeah, I'm curious of the long term

1331
01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:54,880
health of UH. I don't know if they'll ever become obsolete,

1332
01:08:55,359 --> 01:08:59,840
but I mean, you've got online casinos. It'd be interesting

1333
01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:02,239
to see. That's all I had. Just I just, I

1334
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:06,039
just I'm not going to allow that my Hamburger meets

1335
01:09:06,079 --> 01:09:08,039
a dollar more pound than for the reason why people

1336
01:09:08,079 --> 01:09:10,039
aren't going to Las Vegas. That's my only point. I

1337
01:09:10,079 --> 01:09:12,479
don't know if that makes sense to me. Okay, then

1338
01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:13,960
you do get it, then I do get it. All right,

1339
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,000
what you got this week? Let's go to Johnathan John?

1340
01:09:16,159 --> 01:09:17,760
What do you what don't you get this week? I

1341
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:20,079
had something. I forgot what it was. That's fine. Uh,

1342
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:22,439
well a lot now that I'm getting to like the

1343
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:24,840
adult age and everything and getting out of college, I

1344
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:29,079
didn't know that people really just quit jobs just because

1345
01:09:29,119 --> 01:09:31,239
they want they like don't want to work anymore. They

1346
01:09:31,319 --> 01:09:34,359
get like they don't have a valid reason, in my opinion,

1347
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:37,520
to just lose their income and hope for another job

1348
01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:39,600
to come. So like uh Geo I call it was

1349
01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:41,319
talking about how he got micro Mann and stea Da

1350
01:09:41,399 --> 01:09:43,479
da da. There's people around my age that if that

1351
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:45,680
happened to them, they'll just quit the job without any

1352
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:48,960
plan or anything like that. And I really don't understand

1353
01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:53,439
the point, because especially our age and going into any industry,

1354
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:55,960
you're gonna have to build up something, even if it's experienced,

1355
01:09:56,479 --> 01:10:00,479
uh you know, you know, credibility, you know, can connections.

1356
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:03,079
I don't understand what's the point unless it's a prejudice

1357
01:10:03,239 --> 01:10:05,159
h you know big, you know scandor like you know,

1358
01:10:05,199 --> 01:10:07,800
they're hanging on you whatever. If it's something that just

1359
01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:09,600
like that, I just don't understand why you're just quitting

1360
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:11,359
your job and then helping you find some because you

1361
01:10:11,399 --> 01:10:12,960
had a bad day at work, so you're instead of

1362
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:15,000
fighting it out and working hard for it, you just quit.

1363
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:17,159
I just don't you know what it is.

1364
01:10:17,199 --> 01:10:17,520
Speaker 2: I give you.

1365
01:10:18,359 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 1: It's the college. It's a transfer portal of life. Leave

1366
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:25,000
with that. As soon as you're unhappy with your college.

1367
01:10:25,399 --> 01:10:25,560
Speaker 10: Quit.

1368
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:28,720
Speaker 1: You don't have any idl bial you lined up anywhere else,

1369
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:30,600
you know, to that point, I'll put up the curtains

1370
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:33,079
for the audience. I got kicked off of my first

1371
01:10:33,319 --> 01:10:35,520
team at Western Kentucky, but that is because I had

1372
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,039
shown out and was outspoken on an issue that wasn't

1373
01:10:38,359 --> 01:10:41,239
one hundred percent received and it was disrespectful. That's just

1374
01:10:41,319 --> 01:10:42,920
something I can get, okay, all right. But there was

1375
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,000
people even on college teams, like you said, going to

1376
01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:48,039
transfer portals because oh I had some bad races. Oh,

1377
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:50,479
coach didn't put me in because you didn't want to

1378
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:52,479
go to practice on time. And then I'm going to

1379
01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:54,840
transfer it and you're stuck and you're not an athlete anymore.

1380
01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:57,079
It doesn't make sense to me. Well, I'm unfortunate. I

1381
01:10:57,159 --> 01:10:59,319
do get it because I've raised I'm raising three children

1382
01:10:59,399 --> 01:11:02,239
and taking it out is something that we always fight

1383
01:11:02,359 --> 01:11:05,039
through absolutely hundred percent. Yeah, I think a lot of

1384
01:11:05,079 --> 01:11:08,560
people will maybe quit these days too because, uh, you know, Matt,

1385
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:12,319
In twenty twenty five, more parents are keeping their kids

1386
01:11:12,359 --> 01:11:15,960
past eighteen than in nineteen seventy five. No question. When

1387
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:20,159
you were a spot, you were either going to work immediately,

1388
01:11:20,319 --> 01:11:24,279
going to college, or the military. All right, real quicker.

1389
01:11:24,319 --> 01:11:26,359
We got Aaron Wilson's joints next time, don't you get.

1390
01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:28,920
Everybody's all up at arms about smelling salts and it

1391
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,840
became a thing like, I don't know, maybe Jonathan can

1392
01:11:32,119 --> 01:11:33,760
shine some light on this. Did did you guys use

1393
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:35,920
smelling salts on the track? So we did. We did

1394
01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:38,479
it in a weight room. We would. There's some people

1395
01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:40,039
that definitely will get the smelling sauce in the white

1396
01:11:40,079 --> 01:11:41,800
room sometimes the track, but you don't want to mess

1397
01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:42,520
up your energy like that.

1398
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:42,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1399
01:11:43,079 --> 01:11:44,720
Speaker 1: The NFL, by the way, has changed it a little bit.

1400
01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:46,319
You're allowed to bring your own smelling sou so yeah,

1401
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:49,239
I think it was misread or something that was firstly misreported.

1402
01:11:49,319 --> 01:11:51,239
But yeah, you can bring your own smelling salts. But

1403
01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:54,119
there have been studies upon studies upon studies that say

1404
01:11:54,239 --> 01:11:57,680
it doesn't really do anything. It doesn't help your athletic performance.

1405
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,199
So all they're saying they mask concussions, which I I

1406
01:12:00,279 --> 01:12:02,520
remember had a need to use smelling salts. I can't

1407
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:04,880
tave it does or not. It does give you temporary alertness, Okay,

1408
01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:06,279
so then maybe I do get it. I was gonna say,

1409
01:12:06,279 --> 01:12:08,720
I don't get why it's like everybody's up in arms

1410
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:11,479
with smelling salts, But all right. Aaron Wilson's gonna join

1411
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:14,479
us from West Virginia next eleven forty three on the

1412
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:16,319
Matt Thomas Show with Ross will give us an update

1413
01:12:16,359 --> 01:12:23,279
on CJ. Gardner Johnson. This is seven ninety Channel two's

1414
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:25,960
Aaron Wilson. You hear him on some of our radio

1415
01:12:26,039 --> 01:12:29,439
shows here on Sports Talk Saebouty. We appreciate him taking

1416
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:31,439
a couple of minutes on very short notice to join

1417
01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:35,439
us here. Aaron joining us from West Virginia where today

1418
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:38,840
he happened to see a Texan safety go down and

1419
01:12:39,239 --> 01:12:40,920
Ross put him on the line for me. There erin

1420
01:12:41,039 --> 01:12:43,640
the first fall. Thank you for joining us. Take us

1421
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,119
back to what exactly happened as you saw it yourself.

1422
01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:51,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, very unfortunate situation for CJ. Gardner Johnson. Then the

1423
01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:56,319
Texans defense, So Matt what happened? He was covering wide

1424
01:12:56,319 --> 01:13:01,439
receiver John Metsi the third and he went down immediately

1425
01:13:02,119 --> 01:13:07,680
grabs his right knee area and he pounds the ground

1426
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,199
in frustration and obvious pain. And then it was a

1427
01:13:11,279 --> 01:13:14,199
real somber scene as got very quiet on the field

1428
01:13:14,239 --> 01:13:17,800
and guys took a knee out of respect for a

1429
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:20,279
guy they called cddus that they've come to like in

1430
01:13:20,319 --> 01:13:22,840
a very short time. He's become a very popular member

1431
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:25,319
of the team. And obviously, you know, a big play

1432
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:28,079
guy that likes to talk, likes to have one out there,

1433
01:13:28,199 --> 01:13:32,439
and very feisty competitor. And then he's carted off the field.

1434
01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:36,640
The guys came over to wish him well. He went

1435
01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:40,680
inside the Green Riter Sports Performance Center and shortly a

1436
01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:43,840
little bit shortly ago, we talked to Demiko Ryants, who

1437
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:46,119
called it heartbreaking to see him go down like that,

1438
01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:50,399
and he did not have a specific update. Obviously, there's

1439
01:13:50,399 --> 01:13:53,880
going to be an MRI and X rays and all that,

1440
01:13:54,119 --> 01:13:58,119
and that'll happen today, but doesn't look like they're going

1441
01:13:58,199 --> 01:14:00,560
to be, you know, some sort of good news situation

1442
01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:04,720
out of this. People are bracing for the worst, which

1443
01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:08,039
would be a season ending injury for CJ. Gardner Johnson.

1444
01:14:08,039 --> 01:14:10,720
We don't have a lot of specifics yet, but it

1445
01:14:10,880 --> 01:14:15,239
was very, very serious injury and it wasn't only got

1446
01:14:15,319 --> 01:14:18,119
to fall today. I saw Christian kirk ball in the field.

1447
01:14:18,159 --> 01:14:20,079
I don't know if the surface was bad or not.

1448
01:14:20,199 --> 01:14:24,000
I did talk to EJ. Speed about his reaction to

1449
01:14:24,239 --> 01:14:27,880
what happened to CJ. Gardner Johnson, and it was upsetting.

1450
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,760
He says he's got a good family around him, and

1451
01:14:30,800 --> 01:14:33,199
he says they're gonna be praying for him and trying

1452
01:14:33,239 --> 01:14:36,199
to give him all the support they can. And definitely

1453
01:14:36,319 --> 01:14:38,199
cast a pal over the final day of practice. It

1454
01:14:38,239 --> 01:14:42,119
would have been a productive four days here at the Greenbrier.

1455
01:14:42,399 --> 01:14:45,000
Could have just seemed like happened back in Houston, but

1456
01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:48,520
it happened here before the Texans even play a real game.

1457
01:14:49,159 --> 01:14:52,520
Speaker 1: Now, not the depth charge me in everything, but you

1458
01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:56,279
know who how many players occupy the safety position. The

1459
01:14:56,359 --> 01:14:59,479
depth chart was already rather lean there. How much trouble

1460
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:02,479
is a fanchies in right now at that particular position.

1461
01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:07,680
Speaker 3: It's an issue because they were counting on him to

1462
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:12,560
galvanize the other safety spot next to Calen Bill Kelln

1463
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,199
Bulk Sexellent, and he had five interceptions last year. But

1464
01:15:15,319 --> 01:15:17,359
Jimmy Ward's coming off foot surgery and he has a

1465
01:15:18,319 --> 01:15:21,479
felony case out in Montgomery County that is still unresolved.

1466
01:15:21,479 --> 01:15:23,840
He has on August thirteenth court date. We don't know

1467
01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:26,800
about his availability, We don't know the outcome. I can't

1468
01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:29,560
predict the future for his case or for when his

1469
01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:32,960
foot will be ready because he's still on the pup list.

1470
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:34,239
Speaker 15: One option for.

1471
01:15:34,359 --> 01:15:38,000
Speaker 3: Them is to have Jalen Petrie play safety again. I

1472
01:15:38,079 --> 01:15:41,279
think that's something that they will at least entertain think

1473
01:15:41,319 --> 01:15:44,760
about as a personnel and a coaching staff, which you

1474
01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:47,920
can do there. Then you could have Arthur Molett, who's

1475
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:51,199
been a veteran starter as a nickel, and we've seen

1476
01:15:51,279 --> 01:15:53,680
some pretty good plays out of Mouthles Bryant in the past,

1477
01:15:54,039 --> 01:15:56,880
including in the playoffs, So that is an option. You

1478
01:15:56,960 --> 01:16:01,119
have Rush Yeast and you would have had I think

1479
01:16:01,199 --> 01:16:03,560
a guy that could have stepped in in Jalen reed,

1480
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:06,079
but he sprained his ankle season to be out about

1481
01:16:06,119 --> 01:16:10,880
three weeks, so not having read right now, but you know,

1482
01:16:11,119 --> 01:16:13,119
I think he's going to be back during the seasons

1483
01:16:13,119 --> 01:16:15,640
and that will give them some flexibility. But yeah, playing

1484
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:18,760
life without CD deuce not as good for the defense.

1485
01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:23,199
But you know, safety position was looking pretty good with him,

1486
01:16:24,359 --> 01:16:26,720
you know, as an inconceivable to Jimmy Ward, who you know,

1487
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:29,600
even though he's thirty four, has still made some plays,

1488
01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:31,640
made some play last year like the pick six against

1489
01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:34,079
the Titans that they couldn't get him in there. But

1490
01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:36,680
I just don't want to speculate Matt because you know

1491
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,319
that's a felony, third degree felony. We don't know what's

1492
01:16:39,359 --> 01:16:42,680
going to happen with him in Montgomery County. Steve lawyers

1493
01:16:42,720 --> 01:16:45,159
told me that he'll be vindicated, but you know, we'll see.

1494
01:16:45,199 --> 01:16:45,960
That's what lawyers say.

1495
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:50,279
Speaker 1: Ross with you here as well, Aaron, and you mentioned

1496
01:16:50,279 --> 01:16:51,960
a lot of different options, in a lot of different

1497
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:53,720
ways that they can kind of address this. Do you

1498
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:55,840
think they will keep it internal with with all those

1499
01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:58,760
options or you think Nick Cassio could look external as well.

1500
01:17:00,239 --> 01:17:02,319
Speaker 3: I think he'll look around. That's that's what he always

1501
01:17:02,399 --> 01:17:05,760
does he will look around. I don't know if there's

1502
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:10,199
like a surefire option out there that makes a lot

1503
01:17:10,239 --> 01:17:12,000
of sense, we're gonna, you know, plug a guy, and

1504
01:17:12,079 --> 01:17:14,600
then it's probably already the thing on the internet, like,

1505
01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:16,439
oh well, let's get this guy, Let's get the guy,

1506
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:18,920
let's trade for somebody. I don't know. I mean, I

1507
01:17:18,960 --> 01:17:20,880
think I think he can get it done with the

1508
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:23,520
people he has me, you know, I think, you know, Petrie,

1509
01:17:24,159 --> 01:17:27,159
that's one good option. You know, Arthur Malette, he's a

1510
01:17:27,239 --> 01:17:31,039
starter for Pittsburgh and Baltimore. He's still a pretty good player.

1511
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:33,600
That's something they could do. You know, he could kind

1512
01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:36,520
of have some flexibility there with Nickel, with him and

1513
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:41,000
Miles Bryant, or a combination of Jalen other guys, maybe

1514
01:17:41,079 --> 01:17:44,279
some people, other people cross training at safety, but him,

1515
01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:46,720
you know, kind of probably the next man up if

1516
01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:49,319
you're just not want to shuffle, will probably be m J.

1517
01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:53,479
Stewart because of his experience with Jalen Reed still sidelined

1518
01:17:53,560 --> 01:17:56,159
and you know, it's not the worst sprained ankle ever,

1519
01:17:56,319 --> 01:17:58,960
but it's a decent sprained ankle in the sense that

1520
01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:04,039
you know, he was pretty you know, turned his ankle

1521
01:18:04,079 --> 01:18:06,840
pretty bad. So at least he was able to walk,

1522
01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:10,640
but he's working hard. Trying to get back can take time.

1523
01:18:11,039 --> 01:18:12,479
But I really liked what I was seeing from him.

1524
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:15,359
There were pick sixes, and I know they weren't hitting,

1525
01:18:15,399 --> 01:18:18,159
but I know that he's a big hitter for Penn State.

1526
01:18:18,319 --> 01:18:21,159
He had like ninety eight tackles and force and fumbles.

1527
01:18:21,199 --> 01:18:22,760
He's about two hundred and ten pounds. He looks like

1528
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:26,199
a little linebackery short and Stocky met him a couple

1529
01:18:26,239 --> 01:18:28,560
of times really when he worked out with all those

1530
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,760
guys on the middle school field in the area and

1531
01:18:32,199 --> 01:18:35,039
he would see him out there, and yeah, he's a

1532
01:18:35,159 --> 01:18:38,079
serious ballplayer. I think he's a good player. And then

1533
01:18:38,119 --> 01:18:39,720
he's gonna be heard from at some point once he's

1534
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:42,479
healthy in the safety position. And you know, we're not

1535
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:45,600
trying to you know, right, go bit on season, go

1536
01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:48,439
under season just yet. But it didn't look good and

1537
01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,199
you got to turn the page sometimes that is the

1538
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:55,399
hard reality of injuries and pro sports. And yeah, I

1539
01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:57,560
feel bad for him and got it known a little

1540
01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:59,800
bit and a lot of fun to talk to, a

1541
01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:03,119
lot of fun to watch play. And this definitely takes

1542
01:19:03,159 --> 01:19:05,840
a little bit of spiciness out of the defense not

1543
01:19:06,079 --> 01:19:06,680
having him.

1544
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:11,560
Speaker 1: Aaron Aaron Wilson with us here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

1545
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:13,279
So we know that the defense had been looking good.

1546
01:19:13,359 --> 01:19:17,199
We'll await some further news on the CJ. Gardner Johnson situation.

1547
01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:19,399
I saw a couple of reports that the offense was

1548
01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:21,920
looking a little bit better today, including the offensive line.

1549
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:26,239
Speaker 3: I think they did a decent job of stonewall in

1550
01:19:26,279 --> 01:19:30,720
the rush. It was a scrimmage situation, but unfortunately the

1551
01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:32,960
receivers didn't really do their job, and they can play

1552
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,399
better than that. Nico Collins had a drop what it

1553
01:19:35,520 --> 01:19:38,840
was a easy touchdown and he didn't catch the football,

1554
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:41,720
and then there was some double where he with another

1555
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:43,800
play where he was open and CJ missed them. So

1556
01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:47,359
there were some lapses there. But yeah, they looked, okay,

1557
01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:52,039
they're not gonna have Nick Chubb in this game. He's

1558
01:19:52,079 --> 01:19:54,720
got a head injury, so it's like code for a

1559
01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:59,199
confession probably, so he's not playing it. Much of the

1560
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:01,560
young guys lost on a hoodie bar.

1561
01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:03,279
Speaker 1: We don't know.

1562
01:20:03,399 --> 01:20:06,199
Speaker 3: You have to set drouts one to play any snaps.

1563
01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:09,680
I wonder if it's injury today gives them any paws,

1564
01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:12,840
But they can't put these guys in glass and break

1565
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:14,359
in case of emergency, and at some point they have

1566
01:20:14,359 --> 01:20:15,239
to play a little football.

1567
01:20:15,239 --> 01:20:15,960
Speaker 2: He wants to play.

1568
01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:18,239
Speaker 3: We'll see if he plays at all. Last year in

1569
01:20:18,279 --> 01:20:21,000
Pittsburgh he played one series, went five for five. They

1570
01:20:21,079 --> 01:20:23,520
got everything done they needed to get done. I think

1571
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:28,800
Tank had a touchdown. Well Tank Dell who'll play next year,

1572
01:20:29,279 --> 01:20:31,960
not this year. But yeah, it's a tough deal, Matt.

1573
01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:33,760
I think you got to get ready. I was just

1574
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,000
talking with Nick Kayley, the O SEA it'll interview with

1575
01:20:36,079 --> 01:20:40,159
him that will play on KPE RC, and he's pretty

1576
01:20:40,199 --> 01:20:42,640
excited about the rookies like Jayden and Higgins and jail

1577
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:46,279
Nole and those guys are definitely playing and we get

1578
01:20:46,319 --> 01:20:49,840
them out there and get their feet wet and like so,

1579
01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:52,520
you've think for Mariantio hersery and some of the things.

1580
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:54,239
Some of the things are having an offense that are

1581
01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:58,000
not alarmists and there's a lot of skuys following kind

1582
01:20:58,039 --> 01:21:00,439
of stuff. And yeah, it's been rough. Well we don't

1583
01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:04,399
know yet. Segue is just that the defense is so

1584
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:07,119
good and the offense is going to look good against

1585
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:09,159
you know, some teams that don't have a defense, like

1586
01:21:09,199 --> 01:21:12,479
the Texans, or it would be like this against any defense.

1587
01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:14,479
You know, I don't know. I can't answer that question yet,

1588
01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:15,920
but it's a concern.

1589
01:21:16,840 --> 01:21:19,199
Speaker 1: Lastly, for Aaron Wilson, he is in West Virginia with

1590
01:21:19,279 --> 01:21:22,960
the Texans. Aaron Wilson underscore NFL is on Twitter. Aaron

1591
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:26,520
Wilson underscore NFL. When do you do to get a

1592
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:30,600
update on Joe Mixon. I know that coach was not

1593
01:21:30,760 --> 01:21:33,239
overly excited about even talking about that a handful of

1594
01:21:33,319 --> 01:21:36,159
days ago. With Nick Chubb, as you mentioned being out

1595
01:21:36,199 --> 01:21:39,760
potentially for a concussion. That running back quote unquote room

1596
01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:42,039
is rather lean as well at this point. So when

1597
01:21:42,079 --> 01:21:44,279
do you think the next time we'll hear something about

1598
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:46,960
potentially that this one two punch for the Texans in

1599
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:47,520
the running game.

1600
01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:51,039
Speaker 3: I think as we get closer to the first game,

1601
01:21:51,239 --> 01:21:53,520
that's when they'll see if they can get him on

1602
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:56,159
the field. And I know that he's not a big

1603
01:21:56,239 --> 01:21:59,520
fan of the preseason, but he's made a bunch of progress.

1604
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:03,039
So some of the information I've gotten on him is

1605
01:22:03,199 --> 01:22:06,800
that it's definitely a chance he can be ready for

1606
01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:09,239
the first game. It's not a lock that he will be,

1607
01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:12,399
but that he's got him got a shot to do that,

1608
01:22:13,239 --> 01:22:16,640
and they're a different offense with the smash mouth element

1609
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:20,000
they have with him and breakaway threats occasionally with Joe.

1610
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:24,159
Right now, it doesn't look great and you've got you know,

1611
01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:27,439
no Nick Chubbs. You know it's a preseason game, but

1612
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:29,920
you know basically what you have available in star Ago Mawale.

1613
01:22:30,399 --> 01:22:33,319
Damian Pierce didn't practice today under the ramp up that

1614
01:22:33,359 --> 01:22:36,720
they're doing. Even though yes he's ready, they're not going

1615
01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:39,560
to let him after one walk through practice go from

1616
01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:42,239
zero to one hundred and playing a game. So no Pierce,

1617
01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:46,279
Tahar Jordan and what he marks, and you're just gonna

1618
01:22:46,279 --> 01:22:48,760
have a lot of those type of guys out there

1619
01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:52,039
playing for the Texans, and so basically it's gonna be

1620
01:22:52,039 --> 01:22:54,279
like kind of a backup Bowl as my expectation for

1621
01:22:55,079 --> 01:22:57,920
the Texans. And I just don't know if we're going

1622
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:00,640
to see these starters if we do be out out

1623
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:03,039
of there really quick. I do think we're going to

1624
01:23:03,079 --> 01:23:05,920
see the offensive line. Maybe they're the exception and i'd

1625
01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:08,119
love to watch that. I don't know if Johnson Gernard's

1626
01:23:08,119 --> 01:23:10,039
gonna play, and he had a great game against these guys,

1627
01:23:10,079 --> 01:23:12,279
and we'll pay back. He was mad when they didn't

1628
01:23:12,359 --> 01:23:14,680
sign into a new contract and he left to go

1629
01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:17,359
to the Vikings and cashed in there. But he had

1630
01:23:17,399 --> 01:23:19,680
a point to prove and he proved it. We'll see

1631
01:23:20,039 --> 01:23:21,760
if it's in the action like that.

1632
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:23,399
Speaker 2: It's just very.

1633
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:27,159
Speaker 3: Fluid with preseason, especially the first one, getting guys out

1634
01:23:27,239 --> 01:23:31,800
there and seeing what they're gonna do. Not I guess,

1635
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:34,039
is there anybody out there that loves to watch? I

1636
01:23:34,079 --> 01:23:36,800
would say, just enjoy the backups. That's probably what we're

1637
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:37,079
gonna have.

1638
01:23:37,359 --> 01:23:43,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, unfortunately, the Seattle Mariners did not miss the

1639
01:23:43,039 --> 01:23:48,119
opportunity to gain some more ground on the Astros. It

1640
01:23:48,279 --> 01:23:52,880
is getting sneaky, sneaky close in the American League. West

1641
01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:57,319
White Sox trying to make it a game last night,

1642
01:23:57,359 --> 01:24:00,800
but the Mariners won eight to six in White Sox

1643
01:24:02,319 --> 01:24:04,319
Hula Riguaz. The three were in a home run. They

1644
01:24:04,359 --> 01:24:06,800
scored five in the second inning. They were up seven

1645
01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:10,560
to one. Did you see the Blue Jays rocky score. Yeah,

1646
01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:12,399
but that's not out of the ordinary for Denver, right,

1647
01:24:13,399 --> 01:24:16,680
it gets a little out of the was a final loss?

1648
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:17,319
Speaker 7: You no one?

1649
01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:22,920
Speaker 1: I mean, goodness, gracious, I mean, how many people were

1650
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,279
at the game to see it. I mean like, don't look.

1651
01:24:25,279 --> 01:24:26,479
I'm gonna I'm gonna see. If you know that you

1652
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:31,239
need the answer, I'll show you. I have the box score,

1653
01:24:31,239 --> 01:24:32,720
I don't have the dollar. I don't have the Uh.

1654
01:24:36,359 --> 01:24:40,279
It was a Wednesday, Wednesday afternoon, oh daytime in Denver,

1655
01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:46,479
eighty six twenty nine. Well, shut up, my bum ass up.

1656
01:24:46,479 --> 01:24:48,359
The only people that only draw eighty six hundred now

1657
01:24:48,399 --> 01:24:50,840
are the A's and the race. That's everybody else draws

1658
01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:53,159
it least. Yeah, at least moms draw twelve. That's the

1659
01:24:53,239 --> 01:24:55,399
Rockies get their ass beat. At least it's pleasant out there.

1660
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:58,119
It's a beautiful ballpark. Yeah, I've only been on the

1661
01:24:58,159 --> 01:24:59,800
outside of it many times. I've never been inside. I'm

1662
01:24:59,840 --> 01:25:02,960
kind jealous. I went it was great. Yeah all right,

1663
01:25:03,199 --> 01:25:06,439
and they scored. Now, this is just rude by Blue Jays.

1664
01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:10,600
They scored eight in the ninth. God, just get some outs,

1665
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:13,239
don't you have? Like the mercy rule? Yeah, they should

1666
01:25:13,279 --> 01:25:17,000
pinch hit all pictures at that point. Time down for

1667
01:25:17,119 --> 01:25:20,840
the news. That dude, what And with that we go

1668
01:25:21,119 --> 01:25:26,600
to the Jamie Erdaal of Houston Sports News. It's rossvilll around. Yes, Matthew,

1669
01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:28,920
as you a bit you. You you have the Astros

1670
01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:32,760
losing to the Marlins yesterday. They do have the day

1671
01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:36,520
off today, and they're setting up for a weekend to

1672
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:41,319
set in the Bronx probable pictures. It'll be Brown versus

1673
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:47,079
Schlitter on Friday, then it will be Colton Gordon. Wait

1674
01:25:47,159 --> 01:25:49,359
what I thought I heard it was frommer? Why does

1675
01:25:49,520 --> 01:25:52,560
ESPN say Colton Gordon? Now this gets shuffled around? Well,

1676
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:55,920
no Challa Rome brought that up yesterday. Maybe they're wrong.

1677
01:25:56,199 --> 01:25:58,920
The ESPN have can be wrong, right, ESPN is often wrong.

1678
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:02,960
Uh it should be. I heard it was. I read

1679
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:05,399
it was going to be Brown fromber This ESPN is

1680
01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:09,279
saying Colton Gordon on Saturday. But I'm gonna go with

1681
01:26:09,359 --> 01:26:11,720
what I saw yesterday. Here it is. This is as

1682
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:16,199
of hours ago. Yeah, Brown tomorrow Valdez Saturday to be

1683
01:26:16,319 --> 01:26:18,800
determined on Sunday. Yeah, I'm gonna go with that because

1684
01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:22,880
ESPN's always wrong. Okay, how are we feeling we can

1685
01:26:22,920 --> 01:26:27,239
send in the Bronx. I'm happy that Cardles Penire Jeremy

1686
01:26:27,239 --> 01:26:29,000
Pennon will play all three games in that series at

1687
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,800
trust up. How about that? Boom? Okay, happy to see that.

1688
01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:37,880
Also matter if you've seen the news. According to Texas

1689
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:41,079
Monthly Magazine and an interview with Archie Manning, he believes

1690
01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:46,720
that arch Manning will not declare for the draft after

1691
01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:50,000
this year. He expects him to be at Texas for

1692
01:26:50,159 --> 01:26:53,960
four years, some saying the bigger question will be does

1693
01:26:54,039 --> 01:26:57,199
he stay in school after his red shirt junior year? MM,

1694
01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:00,800
so you have you have Archie the there two years.

1695
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:04,960
Arch excuse me, Arch Okay, yeah, that's not crazy. This

1696
01:27:05,119 --> 01:27:10,439
year next, that's fine, it's fine, it's fine. Okay, one

1697
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:12,760
dash one may change things, but who knows, but it

1698
01:27:12,840 --> 01:27:16,479
might not. We've seen it before. I think he's one

1699
01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:19,600
dash one. He leaves. If he is the number one

1700
01:27:20,800 --> 01:27:24,119
quarterback thought of in college football, he leaves, and I

1701
01:27:24,159 --> 01:27:26,039
will stand by that. And if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.

1702
01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:29,600
I will stand by the fact that he is marched

1703
01:27:30,399 --> 01:27:35,159
or arched. Okay, drama, I knew this. He's marched to

1704
01:27:35,319 --> 01:27:38,880
a different drum beat. Okay, pretty good. By the way.

1705
01:27:39,159 --> 01:27:44,039
The Mariners are playing today against the White Sox, and

1706
01:27:44,159 --> 01:27:46,720
then they have a three game a weekend home series

1707
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:51,439
against Tampa Bay. So Tampa Bay's gonna be a little

1708
01:27:51,479 --> 01:27:54,760
high drama between American League East teams and American League

1709
01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:57,560
West teams this weekend. Do you want these schedule strength

1710
01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:00,520
update Matt, No, I don't, don't. Don't even say it

1711
01:28:01,399 --> 01:28:03,279
pretty good. Go ahead then, because they got it in

1712
01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:05,600
my ill even better after they play the White Sox

1713
01:28:05,640 --> 01:28:10,960
today today, Okay, go ahead. Twenty fifth and twenty six

1714
01:28:11,079 --> 01:28:17,800
teams in terms of opponents, schedule, opponents win percentage, schedule strength, Astros,

1715
01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:21,920
and then mirrors. So while you go over the next story,

1716
01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:24,079
I want to see what the Astro. The last seven

1717
01:28:24,159 --> 01:28:26,600
games of the year are the Astros against the A's

1718
01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:29,560
and the Angels in California. Okay, those are going to

1719
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:34,279
be two teams most win games. The smart person's going

1720
01:28:34,319 --> 01:28:36,039
to say, well, if the Astros have it easy, how

1721
01:28:36,079 --> 01:28:40,600
do the Mariners have it I'm glad you asked. The

1722
01:28:40,720 --> 01:28:48,840
Mariners will close out the season home for the Dodgers

1723
01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:51,399
the final week of the series, final weekend of the

1724
01:28:51,720 --> 01:28:54,279
weekend series, and hopefully have something to play for god,

1725
01:28:54,319 --> 01:28:57,600
I hope so. And two games up on the padres

1726
01:28:57,680 --> 01:28:59,520
right now, I do have some bad news. They have

1727
01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:03,720
three with the Rockies at home in with the Rockies

1728
01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:09,439
and the Dodgers, so it's easy. Other thought it was

1729
01:29:09,479 --> 01:29:12,319
going to be because the Rockies will be in the

1730
01:29:12,359 --> 01:29:15,600
one ten loss category by then or one oh five,

1731
01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:18,720
somewhere in that range. Yeah, and you heard the news

1732
01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:21,079
on CJ. Gardner Johnson. Nothing official from the Texans, but

1733
01:29:21,159 --> 01:29:24,399
it does not sound good. And there's your news a

1734
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,640
new Oh yeah, see Guardi Jarnsen. The leg might have

1735
01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:32,319
fallen off, didn't knee probably cracked in multiple places, a

1736
01:29:32,399 --> 01:29:34,600
lot of aweys, a lot of pain, PC l U

1737
01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:36,359
C L M C L L c l A c L.

1738
01:29:37,079 --> 01:29:39,399
But yeah, when they go to a knee Ross, I'm

1739
01:29:39,399 --> 01:29:41,760
going to say, the last one hundred times somebody has

1740
01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:44,000
gone to a knee and anything, ninety eight of them

1741
01:29:44,119 --> 01:29:48,439
resulted in a season. Indians following to my knees, even

1742
01:29:48,439 --> 01:29:49,960
litle league kids, when the follow their knees, they have

1743
01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:52,000
to kind of you have to be careful, you know

1744
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:53,359
what I mean. I mean you've seen I guess so

1745
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:59,199
kids get hit. All right, you flustered me there, I

1746
01:29:59,239 --> 01:30:02,920
didn't make you little devastating injuries you don't know'm talking about,

1747
01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:06,520
all right? Seven one three two one two five seven

1748
01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:11,800
doti seven one three two one two five seven nine.

1749
01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:13,840
There can I please talk to some in Houston, Texas,

1750
01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:15,279
and I'm tired of talking the guy on my right.

1751
01:30:17,279 --> 01:30:19,760
We just had Aaron Wilson on. Literally I talked for

1752
01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:22,319
three minutes this segment. They were so late. He did

1753
01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:24,159
most of talk. That was more than I did on

1754
01:30:24,279 --> 01:30:27,199
this show. That's actually probably a good thing Matt Thomas

1755
01:30:27,239 --> 01:30:29,680
show with Aaron comeing up. You know, advertising makes the

1756
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:31,880
world go around, and for not for our great seven

1757
01:30:31,960 --> 01:30:34,279
ninety sponsors, this show wouldn't be on the air. This

1758
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:36,039
is the reality of it. We want all of you

1759
01:30:36,119 --> 01:30:37,399
to come out and see us tomorrow and tell you

1760
01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:39,880
Brewing have some pints. Great sponsor of art. We appreciate

1761
01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:42,399
their relationship. We really we appreciate all of our relationship

1762
01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,399
set Affordable Tree Service. So I'm curious about something. We

1763
01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:49,960
had the A's Nationals game on. Yes, the Nationals have

1764
01:30:50,119 --> 01:30:54,199
never had a corporate sponsor on their stadium name. It's

1765
01:30:54,199 --> 01:30:56,399
always been Nationals Park. I believe is that true? I

1766
01:30:56,439 --> 01:30:59,520
think I'm pretty I'm pretty confident about that. Yeah, you're

1767
01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:02,479
a nerd about that stuff, I'll trust you. So that

1768
01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:04,960
in itself is surprising because very few ballparks don't have

1769
01:31:05,079 --> 01:31:08,479
some sort of corporate sponsorship to them. But I'm looking

1770
01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:11,039
at their patches of their uniform. Do you see who's

1771
01:31:11,039 --> 01:31:17,760
sponsoring their patches? Yes, I do. It's AARP, the American

1772
01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:23,279
Association for Retired Persons, that is correct, yes, or retired people,

1773
01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:30,479
person's people, whatever. It's a lot that What would I

1774
01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:32,880
mean Now I'm paying I'm talking about them, so I

1775
01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:35,640
guess they win. But there you go, Matt. But it

1776
01:31:35,720 --> 01:31:38,359
is a little weird. Yeah, if you put together a

1777
01:31:38,399 --> 01:31:40,479
list of potential people that put on an arm patch,

1778
01:31:41,199 --> 01:31:42,560
I don't know if AARP would have been on my

1779
01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:44,920
top twenty my list. How do they make money? You

1780
01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:47,479
pay dues and they get you good. Yeah, just counts

1781
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:49,840
on Centsinnie. I get sent stuff all the time because

1782
01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:51,159
that's technically when you want to hit fifty?

1783
01:31:51,199 --> 01:31:51,520
Speaker 11: You are?

1784
01:31:52,079 --> 01:31:52,439
Speaker 1: You remember?

1785
01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:52,760
Speaker 10: Non?

1786
01:31:52,880 --> 01:31:55,439
Speaker 1: Why not I signed you up? I know you did.

1787
01:31:55,920 --> 01:31:58,000
You said you signed for me when I was thirty one.

1788
01:31:58,079 --> 01:31:59,760
I was really offended by that. I didn't know you

1789
01:31:59,800 --> 01:32:03,279
that Stay with me, please, no, just hear me once.

1790
01:32:03,359 --> 01:32:06,319
I'm sorry. Yes, Matt, that was a great prank by me.

1791
01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:08,439
I should have had forty then you definitely would.

1792
01:32:08,560 --> 01:32:09,159
Speaker 11: Oh, I do know you?

1793
01:32:09,239 --> 01:32:14,079
Speaker 1: Then you knew me gonna throw up. I knew you

1794
01:32:14,199 --> 01:32:20,119
in your thirties, Yeah, you did. What the hell? I

1795
01:32:20,159 --> 01:32:23,039
have aged beautifully, haven't I I looked at my childer

1796
01:32:23,079 --> 01:32:27,560
that I did fifteen years ago. Fifteen years about that,

1797
01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:35,479
sixteen years on this show. Baby, I'm happy about it

1798
01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:37,840
because it means we've got great audience. You're always seemed

1799
01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:42,119
to be very sad. Saved me. I had that job

1800
01:32:42,159 --> 01:32:45,079
in Jacksonsissippi for you didn't take too many people. They

1801
01:32:45,119 --> 01:32:49,039
didn't call me back. That's true. Okay, all right, So

1802
01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:51,640
I want to do a little bit of a barometer

1803
01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:56,319
test for you Astro fans out there. Okay, how nervous

1804
01:32:56,359 --> 01:32:58,119
are you? One to ten? It's a two game leads,

1805
01:32:58,199 --> 01:32:59,680
and I don't remember the last time it's been this

1806
01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:05,359
little since the Astros inherited first place. Yeah, yeah, one

1807
01:33:05,399 --> 01:33:11,119
to ten. Honestly to me, Houston, Texas, I'm gonna five,

1808
01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:16,960
you know what. I am remarkably comfortable. Now it gets

1809
01:33:17,039 --> 01:33:19,800
closer and closer, it could all change in a heartbeat. Remember,

1810
01:33:19,840 --> 01:33:22,960
the Mariners are playing really good baseball. They've got two

1811
01:33:23,079 --> 01:33:29,960
power hitting corner finfielders. Now they're at home. The Astros

1812
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:32,720
are playing in New York against a Yankees team that

1813
01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:35,239
their home fans may boo them louder than they may

1814
01:33:35,279 --> 01:33:37,239
move the Astros, and that's saying something because Osiel two

1815
01:33:37,279 --> 01:33:44,600
bays in town. I'm just yeah, I'm gonna say I'm

1816
01:33:44,600 --> 01:33:48,479
gonna five out of ten because the reality is this

1817
01:33:50,079 --> 01:33:54,399
what see I did. They were seven and fifteen in

1818
01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:56,399
their last twenty two before at the end of the

1819
01:33:56,479 --> 01:33:58,239
Red Sox series, so they won two or three, that

1820
01:33:58,319 --> 01:34:01,880
puts them at nine. They're nine and sixteen in the

1821
01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:04,159
last twenty five games. If I if I'm doing the

1822
01:34:04,199 --> 01:34:08,319
math on that properly, that is not a great percentage. Nine.

1823
01:34:08,920 --> 01:34:10,880
If you play a stretch of twenty five games and

1824
01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:13,720
you win nine every time, you're gonna be significantly under

1825
01:34:13,760 --> 01:34:17,680
five hundred. So this is not a little rut. This

1826
01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:21,720
team really hasn't been the same since the week before

1827
01:34:22,279 --> 01:34:25,920
the All Star break. And my guess is what they

1828
01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:31,199
went to LA won those three games against the Dodgers. Right, Yes,

1829
01:34:31,399 --> 01:34:35,479
that was the like the highlight of the season, the

1830
01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:38,760
high point. It felt good. But ever it feels like

1831
01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:41,680
ever since that point. It's not like there's been more injuries. Now,

1832
01:34:41,800 --> 01:34:44,119
what it happened during that time, Jeremy Pany was out

1833
01:34:44,199 --> 01:34:47,279
for a significant period of time. You did lose Lance

1834
01:34:47,359 --> 01:34:49,520
mccullors on the injury list, but that it's not a loss.

1835
01:34:49,640 --> 01:34:53,079
He pitched great in that series. Yeah, people forget you

1836
01:34:53,199 --> 01:34:56,560
got Carlos Kraa back, by the way, isn't he looked

1837
01:34:56,880 --> 01:35:00,399
really good. He looks like not the fount of youth,

1838
01:35:00,439 --> 01:35:02,800
because that would be like an old timer going on

1839
01:35:02,960 --> 01:35:05,039
and doing one more time. He's not old. He's just

1840
01:35:05,239 --> 01:35:07,319
in the not even the twilight. He's just in the

1841
01:35:07,399 --> 01:35:09,760
back half of his career. He's been around a long time. Yeah,

1842
01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:11,560
we told you folks that he had been hitting a

1843
01:35:11,560 --> 01:35:14,640
lot better since May, and he's picked up. Yeah, he's

1844
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:19,399
right where he left off since May. So you're gonna

1845
01:35:19,399 --> 01:35:22,960
get Christian Havier back when the team returns home. You

1846
01:35:23,119 --> 01:35:25,920
got Arrogatti back yesterday. Now he got beat up a

1847
01:35:25,960 --> 01:35:28,920
little bit, and that's to be not completely surprised. It

1848
01:35:29,000 --> 01:35:32,600
was a weird start. Eleven hits, a lot of hard

1849
01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:40,359
hit contact, four infield hits, and sixteen whiffs. If you

1850
01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:43,000
get sixteen whiffs, like you're getting a bunch of strikeouts

1851
01:35:43,159 --> 01:35:44,880
and you're having a good He's always been a high

1852
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:47,720
strike guy, yes, but he's also also been a high

1853
01:35:47,760 --> 01:35:49,880
pitch guy too, and I got really high in the

1854
01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:52,239
first inning he had. It was a mix of everything.

1855
01:35:52,359 --> 01:35:55,960
It was good whiffs, it was bad luck with four

1856
01:35:56,079 --> 01:35:59,560
infield hits in one game, I mean, come on, and

1857
01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:01,720
then they he got tattooed a few times for sure.

1858
01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:05,239
M So it's kind of a mixed bag. Y had

1859
01:36:05,279 --> 01:36:08,159
it all up. He would have liked to have done better,

1860
01:36:08,199 --> 01:36:10,640
he said as much a himself. Yeah, And the great

1861
01:36:10,680 --> 01:36:13,119
thing about his injury is is that that's something that

1862
01:36:13,199 --> 01:36:15,319
doesn't you know. First of all, you're always gonna worry

1863
01:36:15,319 --> 01:36:17,600
about people's arms and elbows. That goes without saying it

1864
01:36:17,640 --> 01:36:19,840
doesn't even matter. Yeah, but in this particular case, you're

1865
01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:23,079
not worried, like, for instance, when Garcia comes back, Hobbier

1866
01:36:23,199 --> 01:36:26,279
comes back, you are gonna and for that and for

1867
01:36:26,359 --> 01:36:28,520
that matter, of the rest of Lance mccullor's career, as

1868
01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:30,479
long as he's an astro, you're gonna worry about his arm.

1869
01:36:30,520 --> 01:36:34,319
You just are. Yes, Well, how long that career is,

1870
01:36:34,399 --> 01:36:39,840
we'll see. But ROSSI, there's nobody pushing for Lance mccullors

1871
01:36:39,880 --> 01:36:41,520
to be released at this point. I mean, I'm not

1872
01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:43,880
suggesting that, I'm just saying that there isn't enough in

1873
01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:48,760
the depth of the Astros that anybody should be worrying

1874
01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:51,359
about anybody's long term You should be worrying about the

1875
01:36:51,399 --> 01:36:53,439
hair and the now. Arroget he's thrown for you. He

1876
01:36:53,479 --> 01:36:58,000
threw eighty six pitches yesterday. Joe spottas saying he expects,

1877
01:36:58,359 --> 01:37:01,239
or I don't remember the exact phrase, he expects and

1878
01:37:01,479 --> 01:37:04,600
or hopes that Christian Havevier's next start will be with

1879
01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:07,560
the Houston Astros. And apparently, as I was listening to

1880
01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:10,479
Robert Ford yesterday, he threw a bunch of pitches in

1881
01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:12,640
the Triple A game, and then he went to the

1882
01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:15,119
bullpen and threw ten more pitches to build his arm

1883
01:37:15,239 --> 01:37:17,880
up a little bit. Good. That beats the alternative. You

1884
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:19,600
know what, I gotta pull him up to fift fifty pitches,

1885
01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:22,119
so I mean there is something to be said for that.

1886
01:37:23,079 --> 01:37:27,239
So it sounds like Javier's next Garcian France. I don't know,

1887
01:37:28,880 --> 01:37:32,880
but you're starting to get a little more. Depth doesn't

1888
01:37:32,880 --> 01:37:34,880
necessarily mean it's going to be a positive every single

1889
01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:37,479
time out, but you would hope that five days from

1890
01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:39,319
now or the next time that spends arroghedty pitches, he

1891
01:37:39,359 --> 01:37:41,520
will be better and not get in the same trouble

1892
01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:43,279
that he got in the game against the Marrow. He's

1893
01:37:43,319 --> 01:37:45,840
gonna be better, he said he was going to be

1894
01:37:46,279 --> 01:37:49,039
stuff to build on. I mean, I'm gonna say Tomorrosha's

1895
01:37:49,079 --> 01:37:50,920
gonna better today. But I can't prevent to you. I

1896
01:37:51,319 --> 01:37:55,319
personally guarantee you Spencer Arraghetty's start will be next, next

1897
01:37:55,359 --> 01:37:56,640
start will be better than you want to call your

1898
01:37:56,680 --> 01:38:00,479
son on a quality start. No, okay, so it's gonna

1899
01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:02,520
be better, but we mean it won't be great. You

1900
01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:09,479
need quality, quality be nice. Quality is difficult. Still thinking

1901
01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:15,840
about the bullpen, still thinking about fine, you're gonna yeah,

1902
01:38:16,199 --> 01:38:20,239
I mean Nick Hernandez when he gets up here the

1903
01:38:20,279 --> 01:38:23,279
playoffs about too much for the regular season. Okay, if

1904
01:38:23,319 --> 01:38:25,199
you're gonna have guys that are gonna be worried about

1905
01:38:25,239 --> 01:38:28,800
pitch counts and worrying about meeting extra days off here

1906
01:38:28,880 --> 01:38:32,800
and there, just not to prolong and reaggravate things. You're

1907
01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:34,840
gonna need you long. You're gonna need long relievers. Well,

1908
01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:36,680
Eric get he went eighty six pitches. If you're getting

1909
01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:38,960
up to ninety pitches, you need to be getting five

1910
01:38:39,039 --> 01:38:42,439
innings minimum. Yeah, so he's got a pitch better eleven

1911
01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:45,399
hits not ideal and man, he had some bad luck

1912
01:38:45,439 --> 01:38:49,720
with those infield singles. Yeah, and and Fromber has got

1913
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:53,479
to bounce back. It was there's been good Fromber this year.

1914
01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:55,720
There's been bad Fromber. There's been excellent Frobmber. We've seen

1915
01:38:55,760 --> 01:38:58,960
more excellent from It's been mostly great. Yeah, his era

1916
01:38:59,119 --> 01:39:01,079
is under three this far into the season. But it

1917
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:04,359
was a meltdown of and I don't want to say

1918
01:39:04,399 --> 01:39:07,560
typical Fromber proportions, but it was we've seen that act

1919
01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:09,920
before and we don't and hopefully that was a one off.

1920
01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:11,880
The worst part was he couldn't feel the ball, but

1921
01:39:11,960 --> 01:39:13,960
we've also seen that from him before, and then he

1922
01:39:14,039 --> 01:39:16,239
had Look he's a ground ball pitcher. Sometimes the ground

1923
01:39:16,279 --> 01:39:20,600
balls find the outfield. Yeah, there was nothing. There was

1924
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:23,560
these big tank job home runs. An't worried about it,

1925
01:39:24,439 --> 01:39:28,279
and Fenway is so I didn't realize until I was

1926
01:39:28,359 --> 01:39:32,640
there for the very first time. It's so gimmicky. What

1927
01:39:32,880 --> 01:39:38,640
Pesky's polls center field, the green the little bit of

1928
01:39:38,760 --> 01:39:41,319
foul territory. I guess I'm an old fogie, but I

1929
01:39:41,399 --> 01:39:44,279
still don't like seeing it plastered with a bunch of advertisements.

1930
01:39:44,520 --> 01:39:46,760
The green Monster. Well, you remember when I was growing up,

1931
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:48,680
there was nobody above the Green Monster. It was a

1932
01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:50,920
primo seats. Yeah, I remember there. Everybody in Boston was

1933
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:52,319
up in arms about that, and then they were up

1934
01:39:52,319 --> 01:39:54,239
in arms about the advertise, like hey guys, we got

1935
01:39:54,359 --> 01:39:56,479
to make money. Yeah, And it was funny. I was

1936
01:39:56,520 --> 01:39:58,720
listening to Gordion's to it in the mon that he

1937
01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:00,600
says that half the fancy ran like we need a

1938
01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:03,760
new ballpark. Half or like we this is our this

1939
01:40:03,840 --> 01:40:05,720
is our museum. We can't get rid of it. And

1940
01:40:05,760 --> 01:40:07,439
the number one reason for those who are going to

1941
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:10,319
and we gotta get to break here is that it's

1942
01:40:10,399 --> 01:40:13,239
very uncomfortable to watch a game there. There's a lot

1943
01:40:13,279 --> 01:40:17,600
of obstructed seats. And in nineteen forty three we were

1944
01:40:17,680 --> 01:40:22,800
more fit society. Well, we also had less food. It's true,

1945
01:40:23,159 --> 01:40:25,079
but there was no more scarce, but you didn't have

1946
01:40:25,119 --> 01:40:27,000
everybody was about five to three and one hundred and

1947
01:40:27,039 --> 01:40:29,600
eight pounds. There were no Rick Ronalds and Rugger ring

1948
01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:32,079
around the stadiums Uh huh. You're eating bowls of dirt

1949
01:40:32,159 --> 01:40:34,520
for dinner. It's a little bit different. You were eating

1950
01:40:34,600 --> 01:40:38,600
corn that you raise on the farm. Twelve thirty two

1951
01:40:38,640 --> 01:40:40,439

Audio confused, got the audio, Jonathan.

1975
01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:57,399

Speaker 11: You gave us the side.

Speaker 11: Shot ofan.

1981
01:42:06,399 --> 01:42:07,399
Speaker 1: I knew it. I knew it.

1982
01:42:07,560 --> 01:42:08,000
Speaker 11: I knew it.

1983
01:42:08,239 --> 01:42:09,840
Speaker 1: Man, I apologize, this is a.

1984
01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:12,319
Speaker 10: Mistake.

1985
01:42:12,399 --> 01:42:17,359
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Willie. What do you gotta Let's talk about

1986
01:42:17,359 --> 01:42:19,079
the Richter scale first? What do you got?

1987
01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:22,600
Speaker 11: I was referring to the astros on the Richter scale.

1988
01:42:22,640 --> 01:42:25,359
I think most people think the astro. I feel the

1989
01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:30,359
most astros fans are nervous about the astros. I mean

1990
01:42:31,439 --> 01:42:34,079
on the Richter scale. I think there is some some

1991
01:42:34,359 --> 01:42:37,399
concerns there. But anyway, I haven't heard any talk about

1992
01:42:37,520 --> 01:42:39,880
Arraghetty today. I just turned to radio on A twelve.

1993
01:42:40,359 --> 01:42:43,000
But my husband said this morning that, uh, you of

1994
01:42:43,119 --> 01:42:48,279
ages looking at recruiting coach satzuh A keim Elanjahwan's youngest son.

1995
01:42:48,680 --> 01:42:50,199
Speaker 1: He has been offered. I don't know if he took

1996
01:42:50,239 --> 01:42:52,000
the offer, but he has been offered a job yet

1997
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:53,119
I offered a scholarship.

1998
01:42:53,199 --> 01:42:53,359
Speaker 3: Yes.

1999
01:42:54,279 --> 01:42:57,039
Speaker 11: Oh, I was surprised. I was surprised to hear that

2000
01:42:57,199 --> 01:42:59,520
this morning. I knew he had some children, I didn't

2001
01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:03,720
realize you had one playing basketball. So yeah, let's keep

2002
01:43:03,760 --> 01:43:06,920
our fingers crossed. I think that's Ivy super for the program.

2003
01:43:08,920 --> 01:43:11,039
Speaker 1: It'll certainly have at a celebrity in every game, that's

2004
01:43:11,079 --> 01:43:12,600
for sure. I don't I don't know how good he is.

2005
01:43:12,600 --> 01:43:14,600
I don't follow high school basketball at all, Willies, I

2006
01:43:14,680 --> 01:43:20,760
can't tell you. But you know what, Kelvin has one

2007
01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:23,680
of the top five recruiting classes for the second consecutive year.

2008
01:43:24,439 --> 01:43:26,479
We're going to be preseason number one or two, depending

2009
01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:29,000
on what poll. Things are going really well, just going

2010
01:43:29,039 --> 01:43:31,840
to finish it off, you know, get all the way

2011
01:43:31,920 --> 01:43:33,560
back to where we got last year, but just playing

2012
01:43:33,560 --> 01:43:35,399
maybe twenty more better seconds of basketball.

2013
01:43:37,199 --> 01:43:39,880
Speaker 11: Yep, that's true. Well, I'm one of these sore losers

2014
01:43:39,960 --> 01:43:41,600
still that I think the game was rigged.

2015
01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:44,399
Speaker 1: But that's all right me too, Thank you, Willie. I'm

2016
01:43:44,479 --> 01:43:48,319
right there with you. That championship game in San Antonio

2017
01:43:48,439 --> 01:43:51,960
was rigged. I couldn't. I couldn't agree with you more.

2018
01:43:53,960 --> 01:43:55,000
Speaker 2: I don't.

2019
01:43:55,560 --> 01:44:01,239
Speaker 1: Who is that that? The Emmanuel Sharp Well, he he

2020
01:44:01,439 --> 01:44:04,119
was so he stared at the ball on the floor. Well,

2021
01:44:04,159 --> 01:44:07,039
he's still staring at the ball. Actually said he couldn't

2022
01:44:07,039 --> 01:44:08,479
pick it up because he'd be called for a double drip.

2023
01:44:08,600 --> 01:44:11,039
I know, but how did that? How is that rigged?

2024
01:44:12,119 --> 01:44:12,159
Speaker 3: No?

2025
01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:15,399
Speaker 1: The refereeing in the game was there were two different half.

2026
01:44:15,479 --> 01:44:18,479
First half, nothing was called. Second half everything was U

2027
01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:20,640
of h fouls. Everybody, everybody in you of ahe gets

2028
01:44:20,640 --> 01:44:23,479
in foul trouble every game, and then you'll blame the refs. No,

2029
01:44:24,159 --> 01:44:28,279
you're you're mugging people on the floor, physical straight up

2030
01:44:28,279 --> 01:44:31,359
committing assaults, felony assaults on the floor, and don't want

2031
01:44:31,399 --> 01:44:34,319
fouls to be called. Not true on any of those things.

2032
01:44:34,920 --> 01:44:37,920
It's called good clean. You think Calvin Sampson teaches fouling,

2033
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:41,359
no chance. Does he teach physicality and aggressiveness? Well, of course,

2034
01:44:41,399 --> 01:44:46,359
but it's physical, physicality and aggressive leads to foul trouble.

2035
01:44:48,439 --> 01:44:51,560
They see ice cube agrease, Yeah, ice cube? You know

2036
01:44:51,600 --> 01:44:56,399
what you can do with your cubes? What what he's

2037
01:44:56,399 --> 01:44:57,199
got hog cubes?

2038
01:44:58,399 --> 01:44:58,600
Speaker 3: Yeah?

2039
01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:00,399
Speaker 1: Are his cubes like your size of your you know what?

2040
01:45:01,039 --> 01:45:01,199
Speaker 15: Right?

2041
01:45:02,039 --> 01:45:04,840
Speaker 1: As he's Elijah one is a four star recruit? What

2042
01:45:05,319 --> 01:45:08,439
is high school clements? I didn't know those things. Oh,

2043
01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:12,039
Clement's it's a smart school. Well, which one's the dumble Ones?

2044
01:45:12,680 --> 01:45:14,279
I don't even say it. Oh yeah, you know you're

2045
01:45:14,680 --> 01:45:16,239

2046
01:45:16,279 --> 01:45:16,439
Speaker 12: Are you?

2047
01:45:16,520 --> 01:45:18,560
Speaker 1: Nobody's And then I was gonna do High Tower and

2048
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:22,479
then Sugarland Smack. Just as long as you don't say nimmits.

2049
01:45:25,079 --> 01:45:28,039
I'm surprised NIMID still has acreditation. I think that it's

2050
01:45:28,079 --> 01:45:33,119
in jeopardy in the air probationary period. I thought, didn't

2051
01:45:33,199 --> 01:45:35,359
a chem Olijah one have another son who was like

2052
01:45:35,399 --> 01:45:38,439
in some hot water? Am I thinking of somebody else?

2053
01:45:40,359 --> 01:45:40,399
Speaker 6: No?

2054
01:45:40,680 --> 01:45:44,640
Speaker 1: You know, the biggest misnomer is that just because you

2055
01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:46,640
have a great player's sun come play if you mean,

2056
01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:48,840

2058

01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:06,439
hate to hear that. Well, there're sons that you know

2062
01:46:06,560 --> 01:46:09,840
of that you Uh. Carmelo Anthony's son is a top

2063

a five star recruit. Okay, but yeah, but I'm talking

2067
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:23,399

01:46:23,479 --> 01:46:26,039
this kid's son is gonna play here. Oh David Robinson.

2069
01:46:26,520 --> 01:46:29,119
Robinson's son played a duke, didn't he was never very good?

2070
01:46:29,760 --> 01:46:30,640
Jabari Smith Jr.

2071
01:46:30,720 --> 01:46:30,920

Speaker 1: Jabar does? Okay? Who is who is the best player

2073
01:46:36,039 --> 01:46:39,000
in the NBA? Tim Hardaway Junior? Who's the best player?

2074
01:46:39,159 --> 01:46:43,359
That's okay that their father played NBA basketball? I mean

2075
01:46:43,359 --> 01:46:48,199
I guess it's does Kobe Bryant count? Yeah? Yeah, but

2076
01:46:48,279 --> 01:46:51,000
he was kind of like a fringe, but he's still playing.

2077
01:46:51,319 --> 01:46:54,560
Who is the best NBA player? Son of an All Star?

2078
01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:04,720
Gary Payton third? No, hmmm, Kobe Bryant Jellybean wasn't an

01:47:04,720 --> 01:47:09,119
All Star. Mike Dunleavy. Did Mike Dunlevy ever play and

2080
01:47:09,199 --> 01:47:11,239
make an All Star game? I'll give all credits to

2081
01:47:11,840 --> 01:47:15,239
uh Google, Dale Curry was an All Star? Correct?

2082
01:47:18,079 --> 01:47:18,359
Speaker 11: Mmm?

never mind del Curry. Six Man of the Year. Oh,

2086
01:47:30,319 --> 01:47:33,800

2087
01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:38,000
than All Star. Oh, come on, that's a full season award.

2088
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:38,760
Speaker 14: Star.

2089
01:47:39,279 --> 01:47:41,000
Speaker 1: Great for you? Would you rather be an All Star

2090
01:47:41,039 --> 01:47:42,800
a six Man of the Year? I would tell you both.

2091
01:47:43,039 --> 01:47:43,720
Are you kidding me?

2092
01:47:43,840 --> 01:47:44,359
Speaker 11: Are you kidding?

2093
01:47:44,359 --> 01:47:46,439
Speaker 1: I would say that man means you're the best guy

2094
01:47:46,520 --> 01:47:48,359
who's not good enough to start in the league. No,

2095
01:47:48,520 --> 01:47:50,880
it means you are the instant spark plug off your bench.

2096
01:47:51,239 --> 01:47:53,640
At it means you're one of the best players in

2097
01:47:53,880 --> 01:47:55,279

2098
01:47:55,319 --> 01:47:57,359
of the Year. And I'm not saying that's a bad award.

2099
01:47:57,840 --> 01:48:02,560
All Star is better. Okay, what about Michael Thompson? Oh,

2100
01:48:03,399 --> 01:48:06,520
Michael Thompson also an All Star? I'm looking it up. Hmmm.

01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:11,680
I mean long ENBA Carrier. No, he was All rookie.

2102
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:13,159

John and Brent John? Probably not? Maybe both had decent

2109
01:48:39,239 --> 01:48:41,319
NBA court. Want a dunk contest? He's done from the

2110
01:48:41,359 --> 01:48:45,359

01:50:47,520 --> 01:50:49,920
They had the literal football website was named after him.

2146
01:50:50,079 --> 01:50:54,279
That's how big he was. Charlie Strong, Charlie Strong three

2147
01:50:57,359 --> 01:50:59,760
Tom Remember the smart and Strong era that was supposed

2148
01:50:59,800 --> 01:51:02,800
to be like the takeover for Texas Athletics. Well, how

2149
01:51:02,800 --> 01:51:06,479
about the fact that Tom Herman was the hottest coach

2150
01:51:06,560 --> 01:51:11,960
in America. And he's going from Ohio State offensive coordinator

2151
01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:14,720
winning a national championship, to taking U of H to

2152
01:51:14,880 --> 01:51:18,840
A to a BCS Bowl to getting the dream job

2153
01:51:19,720 --> 01:51:22,960
even after l s U was courting him hard. And

2154
01:51:23,119 --> 01:51:25,960
now then he goes from that to Florida Atlantic And

2155
01:51:26,039 --> 01:51:27,880
now what is even Tom Herman doing? Now he got

2156
01:51:27,880 --> 01:51:30,920
fired from Florida Atlantic. Oh he did. Yeah, I have

2157
01:51:31,039 --> 01:51:34,079
no idea. He's got plenty of money, but damn, I

2158
01:51:34,159 --> 01:51:37,399
mean a fall from grace is an understatement. Yeah, well

2159
01:51:37,479 --> 01:51:39,199
he made a lot of cash along the way he's doing.

2160
01:51:39,199 --> 01:51:47,840
All right, guy, like sark Tom Herman, I mean, you

2164
01:51:58,439 --> 01:52:02,119
And then they worked, didn't our man? Joe Testa toaur

2165
01:52:02,239 --> 01:52:04,359

2166
01:52:04,399 --> 01:52:06,479
the game, when they beaten a Notre Dame and they

2167
01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:10,840
were lifting them up like Rudy. Yeah, that was a

2168
01:52:10,880 --> 01:52:14,079
little worrisome, little worried, a little premature, a little bit,

2169
01:52:14,560 --> 01:52:16,800
all right, twelve fifty four of the Matt Thomas Show,

01:52:23,239 --> 01:52:24,840

I'll tell you what to do.

2195
01:53:25,479 --> 01:53:27,680
Speaker 15: I put my trust in Kevin Sampson, and Kevin put

2196
01:53:27,720 --> 01:53:30,640
out an alpher the scholarship, then it must be something

2197
01:53:30,680 --> 01:53:33,279
you can do with them, you know, So I'll go

2198
01:53:33,399 --> 01:53:36,520
with that. I'm told you, Matt I'm hey, look listen, Ross,

2199
01:53:36,960 --> 01:53:38,640
I already got my reservation set.

2200
01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:38,880
Speaker 2: Man.

2201
01:53:39,279 --> 01:53:42,319
Speaker 15: I'm back in that town man and Matthew. You know,

2202
01:53:42,840 --> 01:53:45,159
since we're going to be the home team for the

2203
01:53:45,199 --> 01:53:48,520
Sweet sixteen, since we let right be the homes host,

2204
01:53:49,600 --> 01:53:53,920
and we could be the home team, Man, no excuses

2205
01:53:54,439 --> 01:53:58,279
got over there, ROSSI got no excuses. The thing for me,

2206
01:53:58,840 --> 01:54:02,279
the number one thing for me was when Tugler said

2207
01:54:02,319 --> 01:54:04,720
he was coming back. I saw it's a done deal.

2208
01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:09,560
Now it's a done deal, baby, I'm confidant. Cougar's gonna

2209
01:54:09,560 --> 01:54:10,239
be ready this year.

2210
01:54:10,319 --> 01:54:10,560
Speaker 2: Baby.

2211
01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:13,560
Speaker 1: All right, that's all Like tear biscuit, I need national championship.

2212
01:54:13,600 --> 01:54:15,840
And those of you didn't have not heard. Uh. The

2213
01:54:15,960 --> 01:54:18,239
University of Houston was supposed to host the South Regional

2214
01:54:18,279 --> 01:54:21,119
at Tota Center this March. But you cannot be in

2215
01:54:21,199 --> 01:54:24,199
a building in which you are the host. So if

2216
01:54:24,199 --> 01:54:27,319
the Cougars were to finish as a top seed, or

2217
01:54:27,439 --> 01:54:29,079
even if they weren't tops, you couldn't go to the

2218
01:54:29,119 --> 01:54:31,039
South region. Well that's now out of play. They have

2219
01:54:31,119 --> 01:54:33,000
given it up to I believe Rice or somebody else.

2220
01:54:33,079 --> 01:54:35,159
I think it was Rice. Okay, so they screwed the system.

2221
01:54:35,359 --> 01:54:38,800
They cheated. No, it's been done before. Yeah, they cheated.

2222
01:54:39,399 --> 01:54:42,079
Nothing chating the system, nothing's nothing that getting you. You're

2223
01:54:42,159 --> 01:54:45,479
cheating for home court advantage. You respectfully say, you respectfully say,

2224
01:54:45,600 --> 01:54:48,079
we do not want to Rice even gonna make the No,

2225
01:54:48,479 --> 01:54:50,600
Rice has been determined that in nineteen seventy one, I

2226
01:54:50,680 --> 01:54:56,920
think seventy one fly, I'll fly. Could you imagine being

2227
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:59,640
in a school, well, actually you are, Jonathan. That hasn't

2228
01:55:00,079 --> 01:55:04,000
me so much success athletically in fifty years? I know

2229
01:55:04,640 --> 01:55:07,439
one win against Duke. Take what you can get. You

2230
01:55:07,479 --> 01:55:10,199
guys got a ternament win, don't you. It was before

2231
01:55:10,239 --> 01:55:10,640
your time.

2232
01:55:10,720 --> 01:55:12,640
Speaker 2: Whole whole, whole, whole, whole hold on.

2233
01:55:13,720 --> 01:55:16,399
Speaker 1: Cougars haven't won a national championship in anything since, like

2234
01:55:16,880 --> 01:55:21,279
indoor women's. I didn't drag that. I didn't say anything. Yes,

2235
01:55:21,399 --> 01:55:24,720
you can imagine you you can't imagine being rooting for

2236
01:55:24,800 --> 01:55:27,600
a school that hasn't won anything of substance in fifty years.

2237
01:55:27,840 --> 01:55:32,560
We were in the national we were the national semifinalist champions. Okay,

2238
01:55:33,439 --> 01:55:37,920
regional regional champions, regional champions. So yes, Matt, ask yourself

2239
01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:44,399
that question. All right, bad news today from the Texans.

2240
01:55:44,720 --> 01:55:46,760
It is the Matt Thomas Sward Ross seven to one

2241
01:55:46,840 --> 01:55:49,680
three two one two five seven Ross give out the

2242
01:55:50,239 --> 01:55:53,079
I say gory details, They're not gorgy, but disheartening if

2243
01:55:53,079 --> 01:55:57,199
you're a Texans fan. Yeah, Unfortunately, he went down during practice.

2244
01:55:57,479 --> 01:56:00,920
We had Aaron Wilson on earlier talked about grabbing his knee.

2245
01:56:01,560 --> 01:56:04,800
Then everybody on the team had a very somber moment,

2246
01:56:04,880 --> 01:56:07,359
went to their knee, and he was carted off the field.

2247
01:56:08,119 --> 01:56:10,800
I think I saw another report somewhere that even getting

2248
01:56:10,840 --> 01:56:13,520
off the card he had be helped. So doesn't sound

2249
01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:17,079
good for CJ. Gardner Johnson. Here is the latest update

2250
01:56:17,199 --> 01:56:20,359
from Texans head coach Jimiko Rants.

2251
01:56:20,880 --> 01:56:23,640
Speaker 13: Of course, it's you know, it's it's heartbreaking when you

2252
01:56:23,720 --> 01:56:25,399
see a guy go down on the field like that

2253
01:56:25,560 --> 01:56:28,359
and doesn't get up quickly. So I'm always, you know,

2254
01:56:28,520 --> 01:56:31,439
nervous as a head coach anytime I see anybody hit

2255
01:56:31,520 --> 01:56:35,279
the ground. It's it's tough to watch. So we'll see,

2256
01:56:35,600 --> 01:56:38,439
you know, we'll evaluate c day see where he is.

2257
01:56:39,079 --> 01:56:40,399
But no update at this time.

2258
01:56:41,399 --> 01:56:45,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally understandable. This came about ninety minutes ago when

2259
01:56:45,880 --> 01:56:50,880
he said that they've got facilities there. Yeah, they're not

2260
01:56:51,000 --> 01:56:55,119
leaving until tomorrow anyway to go to Minneapolis. So, uh,

2261
01:56:55,239 --> 01:56:59,479
he's done for the year. I mean, it's just if

2262
01:56:59,520 --> 01:57:02,920
there was a if there was an odds pick something

2263
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:05,600
something dot ag what kind of sick human being wants

2264
01:57:05,640 --> 01:57:08,159
to bet on injuries? Oh are you kidding me that?

2265
01:57:08,399 --> 01:57:11,560
I'm surprised those weird old websites haven't sent me fifteen

2266
01:57:11,600 --> 01:57:14,399
emails about it by now. Well, it's coming. Just give

2267
01:57:14,439 --> 01:57:17,600
them time to gather the odds. It doesn't sound good everybody.

2268
01:57:18,119 --> 01:57:20,439
We we've talked about it, like guys have gotten carted

2269
01:57:20,520 --> 01:57:22,600
off and actually been fine or only been out for

2270
01:57:22,600 --> 01:57:25,920
a little while, but leaving on the cart and everybody

2271
01:57:27,439 --> 01:57:31,159
is down not good. Also, by the way, Rashaun Slater,

2272
01:57:31,840 --> 01:57:34,159
stand out left tackle for the Chargers, has gone and

2273
01:57:34,279 --> 01:57:37,119
gotten carted off in camp. So it's just one of

2274
01:57:37,159 --> 01:57:40,159
those things. Every year it happens. There's nothing to do it.

2275
01:57:40,960 --> 01:57:42,920
Even if you you hit the pads on it's there's

2276
01:57:42,920 --> 01:57:46,000
still the stuff. Could all can happen. It's but today

2277
01:57:46,079 --> 01:57:47,560
was a scrimmage. I mean, today was a day they

2278
01:57:47,640 --> 01:57:50,800
needed to work hard because, let's face it, Friday, they're

2279
01:57:50,840 --> 01:57:55,520
traveling to Minneapolis. Saturday, they're not going to play Sunday,

2280
01:57:55,560 --> 01:57:57,640
they're not going to play. So if you're a coach

2281
01:57:57,680 --> 01:57:59,720
and you're organizing, what am I going to use my

2282
01:57:59,800 --> 01:58:01,960
day is to hit some people and get them ready

2283
01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:03,600
for the season. Today would have been the day. So

2284
01:58:04,279 --> 01:58:06,560
through no fault of the Texans, through no fault of Demiico,

2285
01:58:06,680 --> 01:58:09,239
through no fault of you know whose fault it is

2286
01:58:09,880 --> 01:58:13,800
the it's the rough, tough sport of football that's gonna happen. Yeah,

2287
01:58:13,800 --> 01:58:15,279
it's the nature of the game. There's nothing to do.

2288
01:58:15,359 --> 01:58:17,680
They've done as much as they could do rules wise

2289
01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:22,199
to legislate out injuries, but it ain't gonna It's like

2290
01:58:22,920 --> 01:58:24,520
trying to what is it they call it the crash

2291
01:58:24,560 --> 01:58:27,720
derby or whatever. Everybody runs into each other trying to

2292
01:58:27,760 --> 01:58:30,600
prevent car accidents in the demotion derby, demolition derby, thank

2293
01:58:30,640 --> 01:58:33,119
you Uh, it's like trying to prevent crashes in the

2294
01:58:33,159 --> 01:58:37,239
demolition derby. Ain't gonna happen. Injuries are gonna happen. Yeah,

2295
01:58:37,479 --> 01:58:40,079
there's really no way to say, but it didn't happen

2296
01:58:40,119 --> 01:58:44,960
to particularly good category. We had Aaron Wilson on We

2297
01:58:45,039 --> 01:58:47,560
Want to Play. Yeah, we'll just summarize. He just said, look,

2298
01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:50,640
of all spots to have injury, that's probably not the

2299
01:58:50,640 --> 01:58:52,600
spot to be, and that maybe they move Jalen Petrie

2300
01:58:52,640 --> 01:58:55,199
back from going from a nickel corner do safety on that. Yeah,

2301
01:58:56,319 --> 01:59:00,399
where his coverage skills are would be considered mid. I

2302
01:59:00,640 --> 01:59:02,560
like him better close to the line of scrimmage. Okay,

2303
01:59:02,640 --> 01:59:11,279
fair enough, very physical, very intimidating, but there are some

2304
01:59:11,439 --> 01:59:16,600
areas where guys can have some success in past routes. Yeah,

2305
01:59:16,680 --> 01:59:20,680
he yes, and I think sometimes well, I mean, he'd

2306
01:59:20,680 --> 01:59:23,479
be in a different role, but I would say Jalen

2307
01:59:23,479 --> 01:59:25,600
Petrie very aggressive, which is can be a blessing and

2308
01:59:25,640 --> 01:59:27,520
a curse. He's good at getting run stops and getting

2309
01:59:27,520 --> 01:59:29,520
in the backfield and stuff like that, but sometimes play

2310
01:59:29,600 --> 01:59:31,439
action he can be a little bit out of sorts.

2311
01:59:32,520 --> 01:59:34,199
But yet the Texans still gave him good money in

2312
01:59:34,199 --> 01:59:34,840
the offseason.

2313
01:59:35,199 --> 01:59:35,399
Speaker 10: Yeah.

2314
01:59:36,279 --> 01:59:40,600
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's the characterization of most safeties. I think, Oh,

2315
01:59:40,600 --> 01:59:42,079
go ahead, what do you know? I was gonna say,

2316
01:59:42,119 --> 01:59:46,600
I I do, are there complete safeties in the NFL.

2317
01:59:46,720 --> 01:59:50,079
There have been, there have been for many many year.

2318
01:59:50,079 --> 01:59:52,600
I mean Ed Reid was a complete safety. Ronnie Lott

2319
01:59:52,640 --> 01:59:55,920
was a complete safety. You never had to worry about

2320
01:59:55,960 --> 01:59:57,239
him being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

2321
01:59:57,279 --> 02:00:00,159
You never to worry about their tackling skills. You they

2322
02:00:00,159 --> 02:00:02,720
always had great intuition as to where the ball was

2323
02:00:02,760 --> 02:00:06,840
going or war in spacing. But is that you know again,

2324
02:00:06,840 --> 02:00:08,399
I don't. I don't have a listen from me. It

2325
02:00:08,399 --> 02:00:11,159
would be considered the best complete safeties in the NFL.

2326
02:00:11,319 --> 02:00:15,279
But Kyle Hamilton Ravens, Yeah, I don't know. Outside I

2327
02:00:15,399 --> 02:00:19,720
mean find but Petre obviously was thought of well enough

2328
02:00:19,760 --> 02:00:21,640
by the organization. They wanted to lock him up for

2329
02:00:21,880 --> 02:00:25,399
you know, with a bump and raise. So we'll see.

2330
02:00:27,720 --> 02:00:29,840
But there were some times that couldn't the Texans have

2331
02:00:29,960 --> 02:00:33,439
drafted Kyle Hamilton. I just thought sometimes and maybe Raws

2332
02:00:33,439 --> 02:00:36,319
I'm wrong on this. I thought sometimes the hype on

2333
02:00:36,520 --> 02:00:42,720
Jalen Petree was a little much. I think he's good.

2334
02:00:42,720 --> 02:00:44,239
I don't think he's great. I don't think he's all time,

2335
02:00:44,319 --> 02:00:45,920
but he makes a lot of plays and so yeah,

2336
02:00:45,960 --> 02:00:49,359
he pops, he does, he makes I think his name

2337
02:00:49,479 --> 02:00:51,800
was being called a lot because he was in the

2338
02:00:51,920 --> 02:00:55,159
play itself. M hm and so, and he can make

2339
02:00:55,199 --> 02:00:57,640
you know, he's athletic as hell. He makes some great interceptions.

2340
02:00:58,880 --> 02:01:03,000
Texans took Derek only third. Kyle Hamilton fell fourteenth to

2341
02:01:03,039 --> 02:01:04,600
the Ravens and people were talking about him in the

2342
02:01:04,640 --> 02:01:07,640
top four or five, and everybody said, as soon as

2343
02:01:07,680 --> 02:01:09,319
that all he fell out of the Ravens, he's gonna

2344
02:01:09,319 --> 02:01:10,960
be great. And then Kyle taml Hamilton's one of the

2345
02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:12,840
best safeties in football. You know, it's crazy the money

2346
02:01:12,880 --> 02:01:15,479
that is being spent on secondary guys. You mentioned Hamilton,

2347
02:01:15,680 --> 02:01:18,279
we mentioned Petrie Stingley got his new deal in the

2348
02:01:18,359 --> 02:01:21,159
off season. Sauce Gardner got a new new deal in

2349
02:01:21,159 --> 02:01:25,560
the off season, as Waal f and the Jets. Mm hmm.

2350
02:01:26,039 --> 02:01:26,079
Speaker 3: You.

2351
02:01:27,039 --> 02:01:29,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. I would not raise my children to

2352
02:01:29,600 --> 02:01:32,359
be defensive backs. I mean, it's a great position if

2353
02:01:32,359 --> 02:01:34,600
you can do it well. But man, you it's a

2354
02:01:34,680 --> 02:01:36,760
diamond dozen you can. You can become a star one

2355
02:01:36,840 --> 02:01:38,239
year and then one year you get picked on a

2356
02:01:38,239 --> 02:01:40,000
bunch and all of a sudden you're looking for work. Well,

2357
02:01:40,000 --> 02:01:42,439
I think you'll be safe. I mean, I don't have

2358
02:01:42,479 --> 02:01:43,960
the foot speed to be a corner. I get that,

2359
02:01:47,199 --> 02:01:50,399
but I'm good in space. Oh, Cooper de Jean's back,

2360
02:01:52,000 --> 02:01:55,439
let's bring him back, hope. Is he really yeah? Okay, yeah,

2361
02:01:55,439 --> 02:01:59,039
I mean he's yeah, he's out there. So a CJ.

2362
02:01:59,199 --> 02:02:02,399
Garner Johnson And my guess is, look, the Texans are

2363
02:02:02,479 --> 02:02:04,680
not available tomorrow to the media. The next time you'll

2364
02:02:04,720 --> 02:02:07,159
hear about this will be on Saturday, probably following them

2365
02:02:07,279 --> 02:02:11,239
the Vikings game. So my guest is seven o'clock at

2366
02:02:11,359 --> 02:02:15,000
night on next this is coming Saturday, first of three

2367
02:02:15,159 --> 02:02:19,119
preseason games. And again, poor shout out to those Viking

2368
02:02:19,159 --> 02:02:21,640
fans that go to the game, because you are getting nothing.

2369
02:02:22,520 --> 02:02:25,239
I mean, is JJ mc drunk watching football? Yeah, but

2370
02:02:25,279 --> 02:02:27,399
you can get drunk at home a lot cheaper. I

2371
02:02:27,439 --> 02:02:29,720
don't know if JJ McCarthy is going. I think it

2372
02:02:29,880 --> 02:02:32,760
depends from team. Ever, Spince, it was kind of a

2373
02:02:32,880 --> 02:02:36,000
you know, you don't play guys for this first game.

2374
02:02:36,039 --> 02:02:37,720
He brought me att on the second. Then the third

2375
02:02:37,760 --> 02:02:39,640
game is a dress rehearsal and everyone that's it. But

2376
02:02:39,720 --> 02:02:41,359
there's half of all players don't even touch the feeld.

2377
02:02:41,359 --> 02:02:43,319
Now they've gone to three. Yeah, a lot of teams

2378
02:02:43,319 --> 02:02:47,439
handle it differently and yeh. Some some guys don't play.

2379
02:02:47,479 --> 02:02:49,600
I think it's Sean McVay. There's some others. They don't

2380
02:02:49,600 --> 02:02:53,000
play their starters at all. Yeah, in the preseason, well yeah, honestly,

2381
02:02:53,079 --> 02:02:54,560
I think the smart thing and we were going to

2382
02:02:54,600 --> 02:02:57,119
see more of this when we get to that eighteen

2383
02:02:57,159 --> 02:02:59,319
game schedule, we're going to see preseason games drop to

2384
02:02:59,359 --> 02:03:05,760
two and we're going to see more open practices. And honestly, Ross,

2385
02:03:05,840 --> 02:03:07,199
I don't know how many teams do it. Did the

2386
02:03:07,239 --> 02:03:08,159
Texas do it for free?

2387
02:03:08,239 --> 02:03:08,359
Speaker 4: Right?

2388
02:03:08,399 --> 02:03:10,880
Speaker 1: You don't have to necessarily pay to go see a practice.

2389
02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:12,600
I don't think they do free. I think I don't think.

2390
02:03:12,720 --> 02:03:14,760
Maybe you've got to claim tickets online, but they're free.

2391
02:03:14,800 --> 02:03:15,119
Speaker 3: I don't know.

2392
02:03:15,239 --> 02:03:17,359
Speaker 1: But what if you started to put these practices in

2393
02:03:17,399 --> 02:03:21,880
the stadiums and started charging five bucks, Why then you

2394
02:03:21,920 --> 02:03:24,680
got to staff the stadium? Well, you could do is

2395
02:03:24,720 --> 02:03:27,560
a part charity, part part for your own profit. That's

2396
02:03:27,600 --> 02:03:29,439
what the Astros do with their fan fest now they

2397
02:03:29,520 --> 02:03:32,920
call it a donation to the Astros Foundation. Think about this,

2398
02:03:33,000 --> 02:03:34,640
and you know, look, the NFL is always trying figure

2399
02:03:34,680 --> 02:03:36,960
out ways to make money. You could charge five dollars

2400
02:03:37,159 --> 02:03:40,119
a person to come in and watch these practices. You

2401
02:03:40,199 --> 02:03:42,239
take that money and you give it to your charitable foundation.

2402
02:03:42,359 --> 02:03:43,960
But then you sell the beer and the hot dogs

2403
02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:45,560
and the cokes and the popcorn, and you keep that

2404
02:03:45,640 --> 02:03:49,399
for yourself. In the parking? Are you maybe maybe you

2405
02:03:49,560 --> 02:03:51,800
reduce a parking, maybe you make it. Hey, I don't know.

2406
02:03:51,840 --> 02:03:54,560
I'm just one in doubt. What can I do to

2407
02:03:55,159 --> 02:03:58,399
squeeze squeeze anything out?

2408
02:04:01,479 --> 02:04:01,520
Speaker 3: So?

2409
02:04:02,880 --> 02:04:05,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, the two when are we get in eighteen?

2410
02:04:05,079 --> 02:04:08,199
I keep waiting for the ball of drop. Yeah. Roger

2411
02:04:08,239 --> 02:04:11,560
Goodell's brought it up a couple of times, which means

2412
02:04:11,560 --> 02:04:14,119
another streaming service, another package of NFL games will be

2413
02:04:14,159 --> 02:04:17,279
a given away. If I was CBS and Fox making, Hey,

2414
02:04:17,319 --> 02:04:18,640
why don't you take care of us? We've been with

2415
02:04:18,720 --> 02:04:21,840
you for decades on Sundays at noon and three. You

2416
02:04:21,960 --> 02:04:24,600
keep giving us the Cardinals and the and the Panthers.

2417
02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:26,359
We need, we need some more meat on that bone.

2418
02:04:27,520 --> 02:04:30,479
Stop giving away the good games to Amazon. Ah, That's

2419
02:04:30,560 --> 02:04:34,000
what I was thinking of. JF brought it up. They

2420
02:04:34,079 --> 02:04:41,520
could have taken Kyle Hamilton thirteenth and Keny Green right

2421
02:04:41,760 --> 02:04:52,039
took Kenyan Green. Thanks Nick ouch ouch h.

2422
02:04:57,760 --> 02:04:57,800
Speaker 3: M.

2423
02:04:59,159 --> 02:05:02,720
Speaker 1: Can you ca guard at guard over drafted him too, right,

2424
02:05:03,399 --> 02:05:05,760
he was never considered top fifteen. Don't take a guard

2425
02:05:05,800 --> 02:05:09,760
in the top fifteen unless can't miss. When they missed

2426
02:05:11,359 --> 02:05:13,600
Kenya Green was missing on trying to guard on uh

2427
02:05:14,560 --> 02:05:23,920
pass protections. But I digress. Everybody has draft missus. Some

2428
02:05:24,119 --> 02:05:27,000
have more than others. Kyle Hamilton going fourth fourteenth the

2429
02:05:27,039 --> 02:05:29,039
first place is a miss for everybody. It was, but

2430
02:05:29,159 --> 02:05:34,479
some missing it. You know, God it, I'm if y'all

2431
02:05:34,560 --> 02:05:40,159
really want to pray for somebody, Pray for CJ. Gardner Johnson,

2432
02:05:40,960 --> 02:05:44,000
stud Stroud. Okay, it means Gardner Johnson, of course you could. Well,

2433
02:05:44,000 --> 02:05:45,800
he's the one hurt. Yeah, but he's still gonna He's

2434
02:05:45,800 --> 02:05:47,560
got plenty of money, he can He's gonna be fine.

2435
02:05:47,600 --> 02:05:49,840
So to Droud, you can breathe well, I mean CJ

2436
02:05:49,960 --> 02:05:52,319
could also be eating out of a blender before the season.

2437
02:05:52,319 --> 02:05:53,920
I don't think he's gonna be eating out of a blender.

2438
02:05:54,079 --> 02:05:58,479
He just wants a nice, delicious smoothie. Congratulations to our

2464
02:07:14,920 --> 02:07:20,760
See you Friday Sports Talk seven ninety. So we opened

2465
02:07:20,800 --> 02:07:24,039
the show today and I was like, I've got to

2466
02:07:24,119 --> 02:07:26,079
stop listening to the tenth inning shows on which I

2467
02:07:26,159 --> 02:07:32,920
don't host. It's not good for mental health. And at

2468
02:07:32,920 --> 02:07:34,319
the bottom of the eye, we're going to play the

2469
02:07:34,399 --> 02:07:36,600
call that nearly made me drive off the side of

2470
02:07:36,600 --> 02:07:40,880
the road. And I want to know if you had

2471
02:07:40,920 --> 02:07:43,600
the same reaction that I did. What will happen because

2472
02:07:43,600 --> 02:07:46,239
you didn't hear the tenth inning yesterday? You got the call? Yeah,

2473
02:07:46,560 --> 02:07:49,199
oh you said you didn't want to play it, We're

2474
02:07:49,199 --> 02:07:57,880
gonna play I'm scared. When is this one thirty? We

2475
02:07:58,000 --> 02:08:01,439
love our audience. It means the world that you guys

2476
02:08:01,520 --> 02:08:04,920
spend your day with us, especially to those that take

2477
02:08:04,960 --> 02:08:07,000
the time to call in to call in shows. We

2478
02:08:07,119 --> 02:08:09,880
appreciate you because again we don't want to do monologue.

2479
02:08:09,880 --> 02:08:12,239
We'd like when we have interaction from our audience, even

2480
02:08:12,319 --> 02:08:15,960
when unfortunately Jonathan gets the gender of the person calling incorrect.

2481
02:08:16,680 --> 02:08:19,560
Will you let that go. No, he was pretty smug

2482
02:08:19,560 --> 02:08:25,840
about it. It's okay, love you Willie will have been

2483
02:08:25,880 --> 02:08:27,039
a big fan of the show for a long time.

2484
02:08:27,039 --> 02:08:28,800
We called for a long time. We appreciate it. Yeah,

2485
02:08:28,800 --> 02:08:30,600
we knew it, and you didn't money. You figured somebody

2486
02:08:30,640 --> 02:08:33,279
who would trust us who had been hosting this show

2487
02:08:33,359 --> 02:08:35,840
for years and years and years. So we love you

2488
02:08:35,920 --> 02:08:37,680
and we want to see all of you out at

2489
02:08:38,319 --> 02:08:40,760
Tiger Brewing tomorrow from ten o'clock until. Oh yeah, it

2490
02:08:40,880 --> 02:08:43,520
was the master of tickets mm hmm. And I'll invite

2491
02:08:43,560 --> 02:08:45,119
the person to call the tenth Inning show to call

2492
02:08:45,279 --> 02:08:47,760
to come on the show, okay, or you know, come

2493
02:08:47,800 --> 02:08:49,680
on and say hello, give my head's that you actually

2494
02:08:49,800 --> 02:08:50,319
can co host?

2495
02:08:51,199 --> 02:08:51,399
Speaker 11: Sure?

2496
02:08:51,439 --> 02:08:53,079
Speaker 1: Why not go and get a couple of flights? Do

2497
02:08:53,159 --> 02:08:54,520
we need three hit? We have three. We can get

2498
02:08:54,520 --> 02:08:58,680
three hits. That's am all right. We can uh to

2499
02:08:59,079 --> 02:09:00,760
hell get three of here? Okay, the three here we

2500
02:09:00,800 --> 02:09:02,840
found the third one, thank goodness, of course, is a

2501
02:09:02,880 --> 02:09:04,479
headset from the nineteen eighties. But that's on the here

2502
02:09:04,479 --> 02:09:06,720
north there. You literally have one of those space headsets.

2503
02:09:07,920 --> 02:09:10,520
I mean it's not, you know, not literally. Look, we

2504
02:09:10,600 --> 02:09:12,600
have a headset that we used that Howard Cosell using

2505
02:09:12,600 --> 02:09:15,079
the nineteen seventy three Ye looks like that football. Yes,

2506
02:09:15,199 --> 02:09:17,479
that's correct, all right, So we're gonna play that one

2507
02:09:17,600 --> 02:09:19,720
thirty and then I'm gonna not comment. I'm gonna let

2508
02:09:19,760 --> 02:09:22,239
you organically comment on what you heard. And just again,

2509
02:09:23,000 --> 02:09:25,800
it might have been me just in a mood, but

2510
02:09:26,079 --> 02:09:29,279
I heard the call and I was like suruning it now,

2511
02:09:29,439 --> 02:09:36,800
surning in now, but more that's coming. Astros loses lead Ross.

2512
02:09:36,840 --> 02:09:39,039
Are you ready for this? It's good. It's gonna be

2513
02:09:39,359 --> 02:09:45,840
a lot more a much more dramatic season to me

2514
02:09:46,119 --> 02:09:47,399
than I thought it was gonna be. And a lot

2515
02:09:47,399 --> 02:09:49,600
of it's because a the Astros a regressed, but be

2516
02:09:49,760 --> 02:09:52,720
the Mariners got better. We were not anticipating the Astro

2517
02:09:53,039 --> 02:09:56,239
the Mariners going to get Soarez. What was that first

2518
02:09:56,239 --> 02:09:58,239
basement the guy I always forget his name from the Diamondbacks.

2519
02:09:58,279 --> 02:10:03,199
They got non Zach, Josh Naylor, Josh Naylor, Naylor, every

2520
02:10:03,199 --> 02:10:05,479
buddy Softy is already like, let's sign him up long term.

2521
02:10:05,520 --> 02:10:09,000
He must be doing great things up there. And people

2522
02:10:09,079 --> 02:10:12,720
in Seattle are legitimately like, this is not the Mariners

2523
02:10:12,760 --> 02:10:17,079
that we know. The thing is, the Astros got better. Hey,

2524
02:10:17,159 --> 02:10:19,800
Sue Sanchez is better than Cam Smith right now. That's

2525
02:10:19,880 --> 02:10:23,560
just the reality of it. I would agree with that.

2526
02:10:24,000 --> 02:10:27,880
And that's why if Alvarez comes back at any point,

2527
02:10:28,560 --> 02:10:33,159
you flip Flypack he's coming back. You flip him in

2528
02:10:33,399 --> 02:10:36,760
al Altuve out and left field or whatever comedy you

2529
02:10:36,840 --> 02:10:39,399
can use it rias, whatever it depends, whatever compedis you

2530
02:10:39,439 --> 02:10:42,319
want to use, You're gonna have a much better hitting

2531
02:10:42,359 --> 02:10:46,000
lineup Cams. And I mean this is not camp Smith's

2532
02:10:46,000 --> 02:10:47,720
fault because I'm a big Cam Smith guy. We are

2533
02:10:47,840 --> 02:10:52,600
hard rooting for Cam Smith. Yes, but it's just coincident

2534
02:10:52,640 --> 02:10:54,680
all I believe, because it takes nine to tangle in

2535
02:10:54,720 --> 02:10:58,399
a baseball game. Nine in the lineup. But his fall

2536
02:10:59,600 --> 02:11:03,000
is Cohen signing with the Astros, not winning ways the

2537
02:11:03,079 --> 02:11:04,920
last month. Not his fault, but just coincidentally.

2538
02:11:05,239 --> 02:11:06,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had a I.

2539
02:11:06,239 --> 02:11:07,960
Speaker 1: Don't know, how do you do yesterday? I think a

2540
02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:11,039
couple of days ago, everybody had a hit and he's

2541
02:11:11,159 --> 02:11:13,800
been He got the day off on Sunday. I think

2542
02:11:13,880 --> 02:11:15,479
it was, Yeah, maybe it was Monday. He had a

2543
02:11:15,520 --> 02:11:17,720
couple ed. He was seventy for seventy after the Red

2544
02:11:17,760 --> 02:11:20,840
Sox series. In his last seventy eight bats, so it's

2545
02:11:20,880 --> 02:11:23,960
wearing on him. He's he's creeping off. Totally by the way,

2546
02:11:24,159 --> 02:11:29,760
totally understandable. You are playing in the college baseball playoffs

2547
02:11:29,880 --> 02:11:33,359
in June of twenty twenty five, in June and July

2548
02:11:33,600 --> 02:11:36,319
or twenty twenty four. In June and July of twenty

2549
02:11:36,399 --> 02:11:38,279
twenty five, you're playing in a Pennant racer on a

2550
02:11:38,319 --> 02:11:41,199
major league baseball team, facing significantly better pitchers. Oh, by

2551
02:11:41,239 --> 02:11:42,199
the way, using a wooden bat.

2552
02:11:43,720 --> 02:11:44,199
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

2553
02:11:44,239 --> 02:11:46,720
Speaker 1: I mean, this is life. Yeah, he just got one

2554
02:11:46,760 --> 02:11:49,039
hundred games played, and he played I think I like

2555
02:11:49,039 --> 02:11:52,439
one hundred games all last season, so natural, I'm not

2556
02:11:52,560 --> 02:11:55,079
really that worried about it. And if he doesn't turn

2557
02:11:55,199 --> 02:11:57,600
things around to a huge degree, then you can use

2558
02:11:57,640 --> 02:12:01,079
Hazu Sanchez against righty's and left and then Cammy's Cam

2559
02:12:01,239 --> 02:12:06,399
Smith against lefties. It'll be fine. How big here's the question.

2560
02:12:06,560 --> 02:12:08,720
How big of a role is hey Sue Sanchez going

2561
02:12:08,800 --> 02:12:12,119
to be for this team? And does he have to

2562
02:12:12,199 --> 02:12:14,239
have a big role in order for the Astros to

2563
02:12:14,319 --> 02:12:17,000
get over this. We're waiting for yarn and Alvarez to

2564
02:12:17,039 --> 02:12:17,439
come back.

2565
02:12:17,479 --> 02:12:17,680
Speaker 3: Card.

2566
02:12:17,800 --> 02:12:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see what happens is yord On Alvarez, you

2567
02:12:19,600 --> 02:12:22,359
obviously lose a lot of lineup flexibility. You can stick

2568
02:12:22,439 --> 02:12:25,560
Jose l TV at DH and play Sanchez and Cam

2569
02:12:25,680 --> 02:12:28,720
Smith if you have that DH spot. Same thing if

2570
02:12:28,720 --> 02:12:32,159
you want to put either or both of Victor Karattini

2571
02:12:32,159 --> 02:12:33,520
and y Are Diaz in that spot.

2572
02:12:34,000 --> 02:12:34,319
Speaker 15: M hm.

2573
02:12:35,359 --> 02:12:38,560
Speaker 1: So you lose some of the flexibility because you don't

2574
02:12:38,560 --> 02:12:41,359
want to play yord On out in the field, but

2575
02:12:41,520 --> 02:12:43,479
you can do it against if a guy like fromber

2576
02:12:43,560 --> 02:12:45,079
is pitching ground ball pitcher, you could do that and

2577
02:12:45,119 --> 02:12:49,520
then put L two V at DH. Well, at least

2578
02:12:49,600 --> 02:12:53,319
I'm I'm feel better that al Tuovey is adapted to

2579
02:12:53,359 --> 02:12:58,319
the DH role more he knows. Yeah, yeah, go ahead,

2580
02:12:58,439 --> 02:13:00,439
he's been doing that his whole life. Is guy's only

2581
02:13:00,479 --> 02:13:02,600
playing the guys. Yeah, but he's thirty five. He needs

2582
02:13:03,000 --> 02:13:05,760
as I'm saying, he's adapting to knowing that his limitations

2583
02:13:05,800 --> 02:13:07,640
are both in left field and second base. Yeah, his

2584
02:13:07,720 --> 02:13:11,279
best his best numbers this year as a DH. You

2585
02:13:11,319 --> 02:13:15,760
know doesn't have good DH numbers is uh Janar Diaz. Yeah,

2586
02:13:15,840 --> 02:13:20,000
there's a he enjoys himself more when he's catching. Well

2587
02:13:20,119 --> 02:13:22,079
it also, I mean, who knows that's it could also

2588
02:13:22,119 --> 02:13:25,800
be coincidental too. You never know, all right, uh, as

2589
02:13:26,000 --> 02:13:30,439
promised ROSSI we do have the audio of the caller,

2590
02:13:30,520 --> 02:13:32,039
and I just want to make sure that maybe I

2591
02:13:32,239 --> 02:13:36,560
was just in a mood or this. Uh this this

2592
02:13:36,760 --> 02:13:38,640
call was because you're gonna hear the phone call and

2593
02:13:38,680 --> 02:13:40,119
hear the voice, You're like, and I think you need

2594
02:13:40,199 --> 02:13:42,239
to hear the entire phone Can you hear Adam Wexer's

2595
02:13:42,279 --> 02:13:46,319
eyes rolling? He only said one thing. I listened to

2596
02:13:46,399 --> 02:13:50,079
Wex's response and he was very nice. That separates wex

2597
02:13:50,159 --> 02:13:53,720
in me. Wex is nicer than I am. Well, I

2598
02:13:53,760 --> 02:13:56,039
would say everyone on the station is nicer than you are,

2599
02:13:57,479 --> 02:14:02,079
even Clainton. I would say, everyone except Adam Clanton is

2600
02:14:02,159 --> 02:14:07,760
nicer than you. On the stage, thought Boo Way getting word, Yes,

2601
02:14:07,880 --> 02:14:10,319
you do not want to invite Jonathan to agenda reveal

2602
02:14:10,399 --> 02:14:15,680
he'd get it all right? Yeah, that was mad Jonathan.

2603
02:14:16,520 --> 02:14:19,479
I'm working with straight here. He can say he can

2604
02:14:19,560 --> 02:14:24,439
see pink and blue. I was pretty proud of that.

2605
02:14:25,000 --> 02:14:27,880
Seven one three two one two five seven Dotti seven

2606
02:14:27,880 --> 02:14:29,840
one three two one two five seven Ross, what does

2607
02:14:29,920 --> 02:14:31,560
believe it or not? Today? Coming up at one fifty

2608
02:14:31,600 --> 02:14:35,399
oh crimey. That's uh, that's in twenty minutes on Sports

2609
02:14:35,439 --> 02:14:40,880
Talk seven NINTI. All right, rustles the entire thing. Then

2610
02:14:40,920 --> 02:14:43,800
give me your completely non biased thoughts. If you were

2611
02:14:43,840 --> 02:14:46,960
hosting the tenth inning show, Ladies, Jay we present. Do

2612
02:14:47,079 --> 02:14:48,560
we react to the call as if I'm hosting the

2613
02:14:48,600 --> 02:14:50,199
ten then in camp? But what but listen, let him

2614
02:14:50,239 --> 02:14:52,760
say the whole thing first. This, my friends, is a

2615
02:14:52,760 --> 02:14:59,880
great moment in the tenth inning show. Now, great moment

2616
02:15:00,479 --> 02:15:09,399
from the tenth then in show. He would jump back

2617
02:15:09,479 --> 02:15:12,520
into the conversation on the phones out to Huffman. Steve

2618
02:15:12,640 --> 02:15:14,479
is with us here on the Astros tenth Inning Show.

2619
02:15:14,479 --> 02:15:15,159
Wex here with you.

2620
02:15:15,239 --> 02:15:15,680
Speaker 10: What's going on?

2621
02:15:15,800 --> 02:15:16,039
Speaker 2: Steve?

2622
02:15:17,520 --> 02:15:21,439
Speaker 12: Well, I like Joe. Okay, he's a nice guy. He's

2623
02:15:21,479 --> 02:15:24,600
a good coach. He's not a manager. And I'll tell

2624
02:15:24,600 --> 02:15:28,920
you why I'm saying this. First of all, Pena had

2625
02:15:28,920 --> 02:15:33,000
a day off tomorrow. We needed him to play today.

2626
02:15:33,159 --> 02:15:34,840
Speaker 2: We need to win this game.

2627
02:15:35,239 --> 02:15:38,720
Speaker 12: Seattle's playing a junior high team tonight. They're likely going

2628
02:15:38,800 --> 02:15:41,560
to beat and then gain a game, and now it's

2629
02:15:41,600 --> 02:15:45,319
going to be two games. Really, that was really a

2630
02:15:45,399 --> 02:15:49,319
poor decision on Joe's part. You know, if there wasn't

2631
02:15:49,359 --> 02:15:51,840
a day off tomorrow. Maybe I could see his reasoning,

2632
02:15:52,439 --> 02:15:55,720
but we need him in a lineup, you know, particularly

2633
02:15:55,840 --> 02:15:58,880
when we got what forty nine forty eight games left.

2634
02:15:59,279 --> 02:16:02,359
Every one of these aims are important, and Joe treats

2635
02:16:02,399 --> 02:16:04,239
it like it's spring training at the church.

2636
02:16:05,039 --> 02:16:06,760
Speaker 3: You know, he's gay.

2637
02:16:06,840 --> 02:16:09,600
Speaker 12: I don't know what's going on there. The other thing

2638
02:16:09,800 --> 02:16:13,880
is Alvarez. I'm reading that he's been taking batting practice

2639
02:16:13,920 --> 02:16:16,720
for quite some time, no injuries reported.

2640
02:16:17,399 --> 02:16:19,319
Speaker 2: Uh, what's that?

2641
02:16:19,560 --> 02:16:23,840
Speaker 12: What's the chance that he'll he'll be activated for this weekend?

2642
02:16:24,039 --> 02:16:25,760
I'm hoping one hundred percent.

2643
02:16:34,479 --> 02:16:37,479
Speaker 1: Now, Remember my my initial thought was I was yelling

2644
02:16:37,520 --> 02:16:41,840
at the radio. I was saying, get him, WEX, get him, WEX.

2645
02:16:43,280 --> 02:16:45,040
And then I checked my blood pressure into like one

2646
02:16:45,120 --> 02:16:52,559
ninety one forty and I had to calm down. There

2647
02:16:52,760 --> 02:16:57,719
was this is the way I generally if guys are

2648
02:16:57,799 --> 02:17:01,760
like inquisitive and ask stupid questions. You know, there's no

2649
02:17:01,840 --> 02:17:03,639
such thing as dumb questions. But when you get the

2650
02:17:03,680 --> 02:17:08,239
little a hint to the smugness, that's when I start

2651
02:17:08,319 --> 02:17:11,000
to really take issue. And that definitely was some hint

2652
02:17:11,079 --> 02:17:14,319
of smugness in that call of like, what is this

2653
02:17:14,719 --> 02:17:18,360
idiot Joe Spot to do it out there. And that's

2654
02:17:18,399 --> 02:17:23,200
again where I say you must pay attention, folks. They've

2655
02:17:23,239 --> 02:17:25,440
been doing this. Joe Spot has been doing it for

2656
02:17:25,520 --> 02:17:29,000
two years. Dusty Baker did it before him, and aj

2657
02:17:29,200 --> 02:17:30,360
Hinch did it before him.

2658
02:17:31,040 --> 02:17:36,200
Speaker 7: They know that they need these guys rested and ready

2659
02:17:36,280 --> 02:17:41,159
to go, not for August sixth, but for October.

2660
02:17:42,680 --> 02:17:44,600
Speaker 1: And then you add into the fact, does this guy

2661
02:17:44,719 --> 02:17:47,920
not even know that Jeremy Pina had the hamstring issue

2662
02:17:47,959 --> 02:17:50,040
on Saturday or Friday and then he missed all of

2663
02:17:50,120 --> 02:17:57,040
Saturday's game. We need you to pay attention, folks. And

2664
02:17:57,280 --> 02:18:00,159
again you're not alvas Well. Harry's swinging the bat well,

2665
02:18:00,280 --> 02:18:01,920
I do not put him in there. And then you're

2666
02:18:01,959 --> 02:18:04,440
probably the one that's crushing the Astros for rushing him

2667
02:18:04,479 --> 02:18:07,680
back because he's had multiple setbacks with this hand injury,

2668
02:18:08,479 --> 02:18:12,680
multiple setbacks, so they're gonna treat him with kid gloves. Again,

2669
02:18:13,840 --> 02:18:18,239
October is more important than August. Now, I understand you

2670
02:18:18,319 --> 02:18:20,680
have to get there and there is a line to toe,

2671
02:18:22,520 --> 02:18:27,440
but the Astros are in first place. And yes, that

2672
02:18:27,639 --> 02:18:31,760
caller has called in with bad calls multiple times, multiple

2673
02:18:32,959 --> 02:18:39,520
one on one off. I was on Kingwood Drive. I

2674
02:18:39,760 --> 02:18:41,440
don't know if I'd have been screaming at my radio.

2675
02:18:41,920 --> 02:18:42,239
Speaker 2: I was.

2676
02:18:42,479 --> 02:18:43,840
Speaker 1: I know because I know that guy. I mean, I

2677
02:18:43,920 --> 02:18:48,319
don't know know him, but I know his call. He's

2678
02:18:48,440 --> 02:18:55,799
I'm sure he's a nice coach. Last year the Astros

2679
02:18:55,840 --> 02:18:58,760
won the West. They have a two game lead this year.

2680
02:19:00,319 --> 02:19:03,120
There have been as many injuries on this team that

2681
02:19:03,200 --> 02:19:05,520
have had in anywhere else in baseball. Now, is any

2682
02:19:05,559 --> 02:19:06,760
manager perfect? Of course not.

2683
02:19:06,920 --> 02:19:06,959
Speaker 11: No.

2684
02:19:09,000 --> 02:19:12,239
Speaker 1: Are there as any manager or coach, or player or

2685
02:19:12,280 --> 02:19:17,719
anyone beyond approach for you criticizing them. No, you can

2686
02:19:17,799 --> 02:19:21,280
criticize anybody. But I would also say, let's do a

2687
02:19:21,319 --> 02:19:24,200
little bit of critical thinking. Let's realize that Joe Spot

2688
02:19:24,360 --> 02:19:26,280
is around these players every day. He talks to the

2689
02:19:26,319 --> 02:19:30,200
trainers every day, and and they decide when the days

2690
02:19:30,239 --> 02:19:32,319
are off and on and when they're gonna be. They

2691
02:19:32,319 --> 02:19:34,840
have planned off days, and as you mentioned earlier in

2692
02:19:34,879 --> 02:19:38,120
the show Matt Today that you oftentimes they do do

2693
02:19:38,239 --> 02:19:40,159
it right ahead of an off day to give them

2694
02:19:40,200 --> 02:19:43,879
those two days off. Certainly when a guy is coming

2695
02:19:43,920 --> 02:19:46,920
off a rib injury and a hamstring you'll see this

2696
02:19:47,079 --> 02:19:50,000
damp your king would drive. Now, I use I see

2697
02:19:50,040 --> 02:19:53,319
you on the King would drive. You're right there with me. Yeah,

2698
02:19:53,319 --> 02:19:55,879
I know it gets you there, it does. But this

2699
02:19:56,079 --> 02:19:59,280
little this, this, these little comments, these little smugness that

2700
02:19:59,360 --> 02:20:08,639
you toss in there, It's ridiculous. Like again, are you

2701
02:20:08,840 --> 02:20:11,360
just watching the games? Are you even watching the games?

2702
02:20:12,040 --> 02:20:16,760
Are you paying attention? This has been happening for years

2703
02:20:16,799 --> 02:20:20,000
and years and years. Not one Astro since twenty seventeen

2704
02:20:20,040 --> 02:20:22,159
has played all one hundred and sixty two games, not one.

2705
02:20:22,280 --> 02:20:24,799
How many players in Major League Baseball played one sixty two?

2706
02:20:25,319 --> 02:20:26,799
I don't know. Isn't there a guy who's got a

2707
02:20:26,879 --> 02:20:32,159
pretty long streak because he's like the Phillisers somewheres. I'll

2708
02:20:32,159 --> 02:20:35,559
look it up. You talk longest playing streak in MLB

2709
02:20:36,959 --> 02:20:39,559
somewhat with the red team. I feel like a red team. Okay,

2710
02:20:39,600 --> 02:20:44,760
that'll narrow it down with the red jerseys. That could

2711
02:20:44,799 --> 02:20:52,120
be wrong. Anyways, I'm gonna go National League and red. Okay,

2712
02:20:52,280 --> 02:20:55,479
I'm looking it up. The answer is the best cow

2713
02:20:55,559 --> 02:20:57,760
repkin twop current.

2714
02:20:57,959 --> 02:20:58,079
Speaker 15: Oh.

2715
02:20:58,159 --> 02:21:00,600
Speaker 1: I had to put the word current in there. Current.

2716
02:21:01,040 --> 02:21:04,479
See you are are e and t well I'm looking

2717
02:21:04,479 --> 02:21:08,479
at ai here? Why I don't know? Easier, m.

2718
02:21:12,520 --> 02:21:12,680
Speaker 3: Boy?

2719
02:21:12,760 --> 02:21:14,639
Speaker 1: This is not oh?

2720
02:21:14,799 --> 02:21:14,920
Speaker 15: Is it?

2721
02:21:15,000 --> 02:21:17,920
Speaker 1: Wit? Meryfield. No, that was a long matt Olsen, matt O,

2722
02:21:18,079 --> 02:21:18,680
how many has he got?

2723
02:21:20,200 --> 02:21:20,319
Speaker 15: Uh?

2724
02:21:20,639 --> 02:21:25,520
Speaker 1: Matt Olsen's over seven hundred. Okay, hmm, that's blue and red.

2725
02:21:25,639 --> 02:21:29,280
I get half credit. Uh who's he played for Braves?

2726
02:21:29,319 --> 02:21:31,000
Oh yeah, you get great. It's right in that uniform.

2727
02:21:31,079 --> 02:21:31,280
Speaker 2: Thank you.

2728
02:21:31,479 --> 02:21:31,639
Speaker 10: Yeah.

2729
02:21:33,760 --> 02:21:35,760
Speaker 1: So there you go. And by the way, until until

2730
02:21:35,799 --> 02:21:37,959
Jeremy got hurt, guess what what Jeremy did every day

2731
02:21:38,319 --> 02:21:41,680
he played played. Matter of fact, I think even I

2732
02:21:41,719 --> 02:21:43,879
didn't even think. Joe's like when I said, you know,

2733
02:21:43,959 --> 02:21:45,719
you gave it him a day off and goes, no, no, no,

2734
02:21:46,000 --> 02:21:48,079
I I pinch hit him. And that one day he

2735
02:21:48,200 --> 02:21:50,840
was his streak was alive. He's like, Joe's aware. He

2736
02:21:51,280 --> 02:21:54,799
He's got guys that want to play every day, and

2737
02:21:54,840 --> 02:21:56,639
I'm sure Jeremy Payne is not one of them. Well

2738
02:21:56,639 --> 02:21:58,639
he hasn't need what I'm saying. Yeah, but but he

2739
02:21:58,760 --> 02:22:00,200
got in yesterday and all of a sudden, it did

2740
02:22:00,280 --> 02:22:06,319
fortify your bench. It did, It just did. But there

2741
02:22:06,360 --> 02:22:08,399
were some guys that I mean again, I am of

2742
02:22:08,520 --> 02:22:11,440
the belief, having watched enough baseball in my life, that

2743
02:22:11,799 --> 02:22:15,280
one guy in the lineup, especially on a RANDO early

2744
02:22:15,399 --> 02:22:18,399
August Day, Rossie, to me, doesn't make the difference between

2745
02:22:18,920 --> 02:22:22,399
winning a division and losing a division, especially if you

2746
02:22:22,440 --> 02:22:24,120
felt like you need to give Payne a day off,

2747
02:22:24,159 --> 02:22:25,479
but some time between now and the end of this

2748
02:22:25,600 --> 02:22:27,639
road trip and you want to you want him to

2749
02:22:27,680 --> 02:22:28,680
play three games in New York?

2750
02:22:28,719 --> 02:22:29,000
Speaker 15: Do you not?

2751
02:22:29,719 --> 02:22:37,200
Speaker 1: Yes, games played for the Astros this year. Jose L Tuve, Oh,

2752
02:22:37,360 --> 02:22:41,239
so that was the leader one to eleven, Christian Walker

2753
02:22:41,360 --> 02:22:45,520
one O nine, Diez one O two, Cam Smith ninety nine,

2754
02:22:45,639 --> 02:22:49,440
Parades ninety four, DuPont ninety one, Myers eighty nine, Jeremy

2755
02:22:49,520 --> 02:22:54,319
Penna A Myers eighty seven. May we heard peep out

2756
02:22:54,360 --> 02:22:59,120
of him? He's running on a flat run as progressions

2757
02:22:59,159 --> 02:23:01,280
as was the slope to ground. You don't what you

2758
02:23:01,600 --> 02:23:02,680
should bring him a smoothie?

2759
02:23:03,520 --> 02:23:03,680
Speaker 2: Why?

2760
02:23:03,879 --> 02:23:05,840
Speaker 1: Because you're the president of this fan club. I am,

2761
02:23:05,959 --> 02:23:07,520
But what if you put a hard workout and and

2762
02:23:07,559 --> 02:23:09,680
want something cold to drink? Something money than me, I'm not.

2763
02:23:09,920 --> 02:23:12,879
I'm not as smoothie bitch. Yeah, but smoothies don't cost

2764
02:23:12,959 --> 02:23:16,719
that much. He can afford it. Yeah, nobody's ever gonna

2765
02:23:16,719 --> 02:23:20,440
call you a smoothie bitch. Hey, Hey, mister Myers, would

2766
02:23:20,440 --> 02:23:24,879
you like a smoothie. When I was first calling Rockets games,

2767
02:23:27,799 --> 02:23:29,920
the Rockets would be would would get smoothies for all

2768
02:23:29,920 --> 02:23:32,479
the players, huh, and they would prepackage and order them,

2769
02:23:33,040 --> 02:23:34,600
and some of the guys didn't want them. So we'd

2770
02:23:34,600 --> 02:23:36,639
always go to shoot around, you know, the little morning

2771
02:23:36,680 --> 02:23:39,559
practice and steal their smoothies. Well, we would drive by

2772
02:23:40,000 --> 02:23:44,360
and they'd be like twenty smoothies left, and it made me.

2773
02:23:44,719 --> 02:23:46,920
I was kind of sad. I was like, I grab them. No,

2774
02:23:47,159 --> 02:23:49,360
because I didn't ask for a while why I started.

2775
02:23:50,200 --> 02:23:52,479
You would they could have said no. They said no, sure,

2776
02:23:52,479 --> 02:23:54,239
have one because nobody was drinking. Now they haven't made

2777
02:23:54,719 --> 02:23:57,799
at lunch time. So we have a smoothie station. Oh

2778
02:23:57,840 --> 02:24:02,079
that's great. Oh it's great. Sounds that's great. He's really good. Okay,

2779
02:24:02,920 --> 02:24:04,719
I guess smoothie right now? Sounds good. I though the

2780
02:24:04,760 --> 02:24:06,920
sugar content's kind of high. Can you get Can you

2781
02:24:06,959 --> 02:24:08,680
get a low sugar smoothe? Of course you can. Is

2782
02:24:08,719 --> 02:24:11,479
it tasty though? I mean it's better with sugar, but

2783
02:24:11,559 --> 02:24:14,600
also you know your glucose is gonna spot. I don't

2784
02:24:14,639 --> 02:24:17,879
need that. Let's go to h Larry and Galveston. Hi, Larry,

2785
02:24:19,440 --> 02:24:22,000
hey man, how you going Larry, I'm wonderful. Nice to

2786
02:24:22,040 --> 02:24:22,479
hear from you.

2787
02:24:23,680 --> 02:24:26,879
Speaker 14: I tell you what I'm doing great. Also, I cannot

2788
02:24:27,000 --> 02:24:32,159
believe what that insane individual did last night on the

2789
02:24:32,280 --> 02:24:36,520
tenth Inning Show. You know, he has absolutely no doubt

2790
02:24:37,040 --> 02:24:37,799
what's going on.

2791
02:24:38,959 --> 02:24:39,879
Speaker 13: Joe Spot.

2792
02:24:41,120 --> 02:24:46,000
Speaker 14: Probably right now at this point in time, deserves Manager

2793
02:24:46,120 --> 02:24:50,280
of the Year dealing with everything that he has had

2794
02:24:50,440 --> 02:24:56,280
to deal with for the entire year. And if he's

2795
02:24:56,360 --> 02:24:58,719
got a problem with that, well I'm.

2796
02:24:58,600 --> 02:24:59,120
Speaker 3: Sorry, but.

2797
02:25:00,920 --> 02:25:04,719
Speaker 14: He just needs to relax. And any of the Astros

2798
02:25:04,799 --> 02:25:08,159
fans out there that are worried about the Astros for

2799
02:25:08,280 --> 02:25:12,920
this year, they need to relax. You know, for the

2800
02:25:13,079 --> 02:25:17,440
last three or four years, we've gone out to California

2801
02:25:18,879 --> 02:25:25,479
and we've played the Athletics and for some unknown reason,

2802
02:25:27,159 --> 02:25:30,200
we went out there and we dropped like three out

2803
02:25:30,239 --> 02:25:33,559
of four games or four out of four games. Well,

2804
02:25:33,760 --> 02:25:37,040
this time it happened at home, and then it happened

2805
02:25:37,079 --> 02:25:43,760
in Boston. But we got Carea back, thank goodness, we

2806
02:25:43,879 --> 02:25:49,280
got Sanchez, we got Ureus and we're getting our pictures

2807
02:25:49,360 --> 02:25:59,760
back and arrogant he had a less than wonderful start yesterday.

2808
02:26:00,680 --> 02:26:03,520
But then on the other hand, it's the first time

2809
02:26:03,559 --> 02:26:06,120
that he's been back for like a month and the

2810
02:26:06,159 --> 02:26:11,399
after close to two months, and so everybody in Astro's

2811
02:26:11,479 --> 02:26:16,280
nation needs to just relax and we're gonna take it

2812
02:26:16,360 --> 02:26:21,399
to the Mari Nurse and the Rangers and I worked

2813
02:26:21,479 --> 02:26:23,920
for the Astros go pretty good ways.

2814
02:26:23,680 --> 02:26:25,959
Speaker 1: This year, me too, Larry. Thank you for the phone.

2815
02:26:26,040 --> 02:26:27,319
I got to roll over a break. Thank you very

2816
02:26:27,399 --> 02:26:30,719
much for the phone call. Let's say, quick time out

2817
02:26:30,959 --> 02:26:32,639
and come back and take a couple of quick calls

2818
02:26:32,639 --> 02:26:33,719
if we can and get to believe it or not?

2819
02:26:33,959 --> 02:26:38,280
Is it highly googleble Ross? It certainly is. Sports Talk

2820
02:26:38,319 --> 02:26:43,000
seven hunder. Vince in Midtown joins the Matt Thomas Shower

2821
02:26:43,120 --> 02:26:47,000
Ross at one high Vince, Hey, good afternoon.

2822
02:26:47,200 --> 02:26:47,360
Speaker 15: Hey.

2823
02:26:48,159 --> 02:26:51,200
Speaker 4: I'm not defending that guy yesterday on that call, but

2824
02:26:52,239 --> 02:26:54,440
first of all, I think the spot is definitely has

2825
02:26:54,479 --> 02:26:56,360
to be a top candidate for Manager of the year

2826
02:26:56,440 --> 02:26:58,920
based on what you know through this part of the

2827
02:26:59,000 --> 02:27:01,799
season and how well he's done with makeshift lineups every night.

2828
02:27:02,639 --> 02:27:06,559
But when I heard the opening or the lineup, I'm like, man,

2829
02:27:06,840 --> 02:27:10,040
they kept out of the lineup, And I think all

2830
02:27:10,120 --> 02:27:13,280
these games are very very important right now, and he's

2831
02:27:13,319 --> 02:27:15,360
been hitting the crap out of the ball, and so

2832
02:27:15,639 --> 02:27:19,879
I did question that. However, I would never go after

2833
02:27:19,959 --> 02:27:22,520
the coach for making the decision that he knows more

2834
02:27:22,559 --> 02:27:22,920
about that.

2835
02:27:23,120 --> 02:27:26,040
Speaker 1: Well, again, questioning things, Vince and thank you for the

2836
02:27:26,079 --> 02:27:28,799
phone call is more than acceptable. I mean, that's what

2837
02:27:29,159 --> 02:27:33,280
managers are made to be second guests. But you have

2838
02:27:33,440 --> 02:27:36,040
to kind of trust what the guy's doing that has

2839
02:27:36,120 --> 02:27:38,280
been around that team since the beginning and knows the

2840
02:27:38,399 --> 02:27:42,920
organization intimately. And we just said before, he's not the

2841
02:27:43,000 --> 02:27:44,760
only manager that put likes to put back to back

2842
02:27:44,799 --> 02:27:46,760
days together. And frankly, he didn't get it back to me.

2843
02:27:46,840 --> 02:27:48,239
He didn't get an off day, he didn't he didn't

2844
02:27:48,239 --> 02:27:51,000
get a day to decompress, get a hit let in

2845
02:27:51,040 --> 02:27:57,000
the game. Just just trust. But to say that someone

2846
02:27:57,159 --> 02:27:59,879
is not quite that would be like Rossie helped me

2847
02:28:00,000 --> 02:28:05,319
out with this. You know, I'm terrible analogies. I don't

2848
02:28:05,319 --> 02:28:09,399
know a sales manager that routinely goes hits one hundred

2849
02:28:09,399 --> 02:28:12,040
and five percent of his goal and then one month

2850
02:28:12,079 --> 02:28:13,799
he's at eighty nine percent and all of a sudden

2851
02:28:13,840 --> 02:28:15,639
he should be dropped down to a guy who works

2852
02:28:15,680 --> 02:28:19,360
in the warehouse. I just I just find it insulting

2853
02:28:20,280 --> 02:28:23,639
that a JABBRONI would call a show and say he

2854
02:28:23,760 --> 02:28:26,959
may be a good coach, but not a good manager

2855
02:28:27,399 --> 02:28:29,879
when his team is in first place and manages twenty

2856
02:28:30,000 --> 02:28:32,200
six bodies and twenty six players and in this case,

2857
02:28:32,280 --> 02:28:35,079
forty to forty five different players. I just I think

2858
02:28:35,120 --> 02:28:39,479
it's just disrespectful. I just think it is. Yeah, it's

2859
02:28:39,559 --> 02:28:43,440
not quite Well. We criticize politicians probably do a better

2860
02:28:43,559 --> 02:28:46,200
job of knowing the inner workings of politics than I do. Oh,

2861
02:28:46,280 --> 02:28:48,559
I know I know about the inner workings of politics.

2862
02:28:48,639 --> 02:28:51,120
They're all slam balls. Well, yeah, we all get money.

2863
02:28:52,639 --> 02:28:57,200
Follow money, folks. There's a difference to me in questioning

2864
02:28:57,319 --> 02:29:03,280
respectfully and going what the hell's going on? And maybe

2865
02:29:03,319 --> 02:29:05,399
I'm maybe I'm being too narrow minded on the match.

2866
02:29:05,399 --> 02:29:08,600
I just know. I just feel like managers in baseball

2867
02:29:08,920 --> 02:29:13,239
just because people think they can coach and manage a

2868
02:29:13,319 --> 02:29:15,799
baseball team because they play in little league. You don't hear.

2869
02:29:16,000 --> 02:29:18,079
You don't hear coaches say, oh I can I can

2870
02:29:18,159 --> 02:29:20,079
out coach emy A dok Er, I can out coach

2871
02:29:20,159 --> 02:29:23,479
pat Riley. You hear all the time in baseball. That's true.

2872
02:29:23,959 --> 02:29:24,079
Speaker 14: Uh.

2873
02:29:24,399 --> 02:29:27,760
Speaker 1: I would just say in general, if you're looking to

2874
02:29:27,840 --> 02:29:30,239
criticize somebody who's an expert at what they do, which

2875
02:29:30,399 --> 02:29:32,399
Joe has bought is an expert at what he does.

2876
02:29:33,879 --> 02:29:36,479
Before you call into the show and stop and try

2877
02:29:36,520 --> 02:29:38,440
to see the other side, look for the reasoning and

2878
02:29:38,520 --> 02:29:41,680
what they are doing. Five minutes up to go on

2879
02:29:41,760 --> 02:29:49,239
the show, what should we do? We should play America's
