Speaker 1: Good evening everybody, and welcome to another edition of Fire Up.
Speaker 1: Are we fired up for the football season or what? Guys?
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, hallelujah.
Speaker 3: No more third, second and third stringers.
Speaker 2: I'm sick.
Speaker 3: I'm sick of watching rookie starters go up against second
Speaker 3: and third stringers for seven drives, throws, zero touchdowns, rush
Speaker 3: one in and he's the best things in touchdown. Jesus, here,
Speaker 3: you here, you.
Speaker 1: We're gonna say welcome hello to all the people so
Speaker 1: far in the check because we're gonna quick go on there.
Speaker 1: Let's go nights charge on. Josh and the guys are
Speaker 1: covering the game, so I don't know exactly which game
Speaker 1: you're talking about, but they'll be in and out no problem.
Speaker 1: We appreciate all the comments. The Bounce House definitely gets
Speaker 1: the boom. Let's get it rolling. Go nights. Well, there's
Speaker 1: a couple of different nights, so I don't know which
Speaker 1: nights you're necessarily talking about. Could be UCF, but I'm
Speaker 1: not sure. I hope Travis is watching the game. I'm
Speaker 1: guessing that means I'm surprised SFT didn't make a trip
Speaker 1: to the Bounce House to cover the game. The bounce
Speaker 1: House is bouncing my friends there covering the Um game
Speaker 1: this weekend, and then they could have covered UCF tonight
Speaker 1: then gone to the swamp after to cover the uf
Speaker 1: UM game. Fire up the party. So I can tell
Speaker 1: you guys, and I don't know if you guys heard
Speaker 1: or not, but that Scott and I are going up
Speaker 1: to a place I have yet to be in the
Speaker 1: state of Florida. We are going to Gainesville to the swamp.
Speaker 1: We are covering the Hurricanes versus the Gators game on Saturday.
Speaker 1: I will be on the field taking pictures since Scott
Speaker 1: will be writing a story. So I am super excited
Speaker 1: because it's the last really big venue in the state
Speaker 1: of Florida that I haven't been to.
Speaker 2: Nice. That's great.
Speaker 1: I am excited. So let's introduce really my panel, because
Speaker 1: I didn't do that even though I went through all
Speaker 1: those people in the chatroom. So next to me is
Speaker 1: mister Ralph Williams. Hello, Ralph, how are you your right?
Speaker 2: Good?
Speaker 4: Everything's great, And you know here in Pittsburgh, I had
Speaker 4: a hot day, some rain, and here.
Speaker 2: We are so ready for some football where they get
Speaker 2: fired up. Tonight.
Speaker 4: I have a special announcement for everybody, those of you
Speaker 4: who didn't watch the NFL Roundtable last night. I have
Speaker 4: announced which I haven't announced here in Pittsburgh yet, but
Speaker 4: we'll soon. I will be putting Sports Corner back on
Speaker 4: the radio. It's going to be on twelve fifty AM
Speaker 4: ninety two point five FM to Answer in Pittsburgh every
Speaker 4: Saturday two to three pm with Me, Ralph Williams and
Speaker 4: Smoking Jim Frasier.
Speaker 1: So awesome, awesome, awesome.
Speaker 4: And I'm still fighting, still fighting to keep the TV
Speaker 4: station up and running that we had our Sports Corner
Speaker 4: TV show on, Still fighting for that. We have a
Speaker 4: meeting with the Deputy mayor coming up soon here in Pittsburgh,
Speaker 4: and so things are moving along. Had a radio personality
Speaker 4: who thinks that the station should be shut down, insulted
Speaker 4: me a little bit and everything else, and I'm going
Speaker 4: to see to it that he has an egg on
Speaker 4: his face because I think we can be able to
Speaker 4: pool this off at the last minute, get to save
Speaker 4: the TV station from shutting down. Then you'll get to
Speaker 4: see Sports Corner of TV.
Speaker 1: Awesome awesome and my co host, mister Smoking Jeremy B.
Speaker 1: How are you tonight?
Speaker 3: Good evening, But just for Joshua door one time, Boh,
Speaker 3: good evening, Will, there's your dog check, don't ask again?
Speaker 1: And d Lo's I have not been to the Bounce
Speaker 1: House uc F Stadium. I guess I really didn't count
Speaker 1: it as one of the big stadiums. But maybe I'm wrong,
Speaker 1: so I'll have to put it on the list to
Speaker 1: go yet. But they're saying good luck and hell yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: what's going on? Joshua, thank you for tuning in and
Speaker 1: saying hi to vote, Will Vogel.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, And James is the guy?
Speaker 2: Oh, Robert, thank you Robert.
Speaker 3: That won the drawing when I hit five hundred subs.
Speaker 1: Oh really cool.
Speaker 3: Yep, he's getting a nice free custom tumbler made by Leonard.
Speaker 3: He gets twenty five dollars off if he ever comes
Speaker 3: into Brandon's office set of tires.
Speaker 1: Nice.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 4: You know what I came up for, Jeremy, I asked,
Speaker 4: you know, I asked for some tires.
Speaker 2: I mentioned your name. They charged me double.
Speaker 3: You went to the wrong brands. You must have went
Speaker 3: to the one on Kettering.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: I thought one of the things I was going to
Speaker 1: do differently in the show is I'm going to introduce
Speaker 1: a new segment, and the new segment is called did
Speaker 1: you know? And depending on the week, it could be
Speaker 1: off the wall, little uh tidbit or nugget. And I
Speaker 1: thought tonight, since really for most of the college football
Speaker 1: the season starts tonight. I mean that kind. I know,
Speaker 1: there was a couple of games last weekend and stuff
Speaker 1: like that, but for most all of the teams, Oh, Candy,
Speaker 1: just an fyi, Josh, and the guys only care about
Speaker 1: two things, the Florida Panthers and the UCF nights.
Speaker 3: No, no, you don't say that is funny.
Speaker 1: That is funny. So we're going to talk about some stadiums,
Speaker 1: some college stadiums and some of their traditions. I was
Speaker 1: doing some research and one of the stadiums, and I
Speaker 1: don't know why I'm even bringing up the Ohio State
Speaker 1: because that's not one of my favorites, but one of
Speaker 1: their traditions is the marching band that eloquently form into
Speaker 1: a beautiful script spelling Ohio and the dotting of the
Speaker 1: eye is the big tradition. This tradition, which takes many
Speaker 1: hours of practice, began, You guys have any clue what
Speaker 1: year that began.
Speaker 2: I'd say nineteen forty.
Speaker 3: Very close, Okay, I was gonna say nineteen thirty.
Speaker 1: Eight, nineteen thirty six.
Speaker 2: Wow, jeez, Jeremy and I were both close, guys. I were.
Speaker 1: Another one of the college traditions. Actually, if you were
Speaker 1: if you were watching ESPN, you would have seen it tonight,
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Run with Ralphie at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Speaker 1: So they are playing tonight and that tradition goes back
Speaker 1: to nineteen sixty seven. Then they're you, guys, know what
Speaker 1: they do at Clemson.
Speaker 3: Howard?
Speaker 2: Now I don't.
Speaker 1: They have a rock. Some people believe it in the
Speaker 1: metaphysical properties of crystal, but the players at Clemson University
Speaker 1: attribute their wins to the magical properties of Howard's Rock,
Speaker 1: a decorative office stone from Death Valley turned pregame ritual
Speaker 1: that sits atop the east Zone hill beginning in nineteen
Speaker 1: sixty six, with the players running past the rock onto
Speaker 1: the field where they would later beat Virginia. Howard's Rock
Speaker 1: has since been touched before every game to increase the
Speaker 1: chances of the home win. There's all kinds of different ones.
Speaker 1: Like I'll say, if for any of you that are
Speaker 1: Wisconsin fans, and there probably aren't many Wisconsin fans watching
Speaker 1: right now, but they do jump around in Wisconsin, which
Speaker 1: is jump around. And I'll tell you Scott witnessed this
Speaker 1: for the first time when we covered a Wisconsin versus
Speaker 1: Penn State game and he was up in the press
Speaker 1: box and all of a sudden, he's like, it was shaking,
Speaker 1: and he's like, what's going on. Is there an earthquake?
Speaker 1: Is there an earthquake? What's going on? And no, they
Speaker 1: were playing this and the fans were jumping around. It
Speaker 1: shook the stadium. So that is pretty cool. Let's see, Ralph,
Speaker 1: you were telling us what they do at pit games.
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, pick games at Akroshuer Stadium, they play the
Speaker 4: third after the third quarter, they play Sweet Caroline by
Speaker 4: Neil Diamond. What they've done is is they've taken Neil
Speaker 4: Sweet Caroline and instead of it just going do do
Speaker 4: do sway kick, let's go pit and how great times
Speaker 4: we have and all that, which is not true, but
Speaker 4: I mean, you know that's but that's what they've done.
Speaker 4: They modified it to where it says let's go pit
Speaker 4: and everybody else let's go pit.
Speaker 1: And yes, Orlando, that is one of the best ones.
Speaker 1: Or land Or, Iowa. They waved to the children's hospital.
Speaker 1: Is one of the best traditions period. I agree, I agree.
Speaker 3: And that just started, like I think it was twenty
Speaker 3: thirty years ago that that wasn't That's one of the
Speaker 3: youngest traditions in college football, but the oldest one. It
Speaker 3: isn't singing mister Bright's side. That's not the tradition. That's
Speaker 3: just something they started doing since the song came out
Speaker 3: in the two thousands. The tradition is the banner that
Speaker 3: they touch on their way out of the tunnel. That
Speaker 3: has been being done since nineteen fifty six.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: So I do have another question for you guys. Okay,
Speaker 1: can you guys name me the oldest rivalry in college
Speaker 1: football and what year it began?
Speaker 2: Well, all right, I'll go with you. Good Jeremy, you go.
Speaker 3: First, Ahead, you go, you go, because I want to
Speaker 3: see if you're going on.
Speaker 4: I'm going to say Michigan Ohio State. And it's been
Speaker 4: on the tradition since probably the eighteen hundreds, but I
Speaker 4: can't give you a year.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's where I was going. But I think it actually
Speaker 3: started in like early nineteen hundreds. It was like nineteen
Speaker 3: oh six, nineteen oh eight.
Speaker 1: So the oldest rivalry in college football dates back to
Speaker 1: eighteen seventy three, and it's Yale versus Princeton.
Speaker 2: Oh, who would have ever thought of that one? I
Speaker 2: like this, I like this one. Here Army Navy, as
Speaker 2: Joseph said, Army Navy here, and then I'm sure God
Speaker 2: said the same. That's a big rivalry too.
Speaker 3: The twenty seventeen national champions.
Speaker 2: Harvard versus Yell. Patty was close, Paddy was she had
Speaker 2: one of them?
Speaker 3: Yep, he I've made the mistake a few times. I've
Speaker 3: been corrected.
Speaker 2: Oh, real quick. Colorado's losing twenty to fourteen to the
Speaker 2: North Dakota State.
Speaker 1: I do not know who won the twenty seventeen college.
Speaker 3: Let's see, that was Clemson, wasn't it?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Wasn't that Sunshine's rocky year? Was it freshman year?
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 1: That could be yeah? And Will yes, that that is
Speaker 1: a And they stabbed the middle of a spear. They
Speaker 1: ride out on a horse, Chief Aciolo, and he stabs
Speaker 1: a spear. So, yes, that's good question. Joshua Door I
Speaker 1: had a question the chat for smoking Jeremy Bead And.
Speaker 3: We're trying to get through our topics at the same time.
Speaker 1: Where was his question? Do you even know?
Speaker 3: I don't remember?
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: Smoking Jeremy Bee, did you know that Scott wrote a book?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: I read it?
Speaker 2: Is that so? Oh? I wasn't aware that he wrote
Speaker 2: a book? Oh my.
Speaker 3: Wow? I mean I don't write for his publication myself.
Speaker 2: Jeremy's I think a freelance writer, right?
Speaker 1: And hello for Nando?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hello, hey Ralph and JB.
Speaker 1: And a special hay to the beautiful.
Speaker 2: Like Brent.
Speaker 3: Such a flirt look at him? Do you see f
Speaker 3: twenty seventeen National champs?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: Was that?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Oh? Snap, I'm late.
Speaker 3: It happens.
Speaker 1: Team candy, all right. I like that, Fernando sounds good
Speaker 1: to be sounds good to me.
Speaker 3: I like it when the team buys me candy too.
Speaker 1: What's the topic? We're talking? College football?
Speaker 3: Football?
Speaker 1: Yep, football is back. So what are there any specific
Speaker 1: games this weekend? You guys are looking forward to.
Speaker 4: Penn State West Virginia. Okay, that's gonna be an interesting game.
Speaker 4: We're going to see what Penn State's made of and
Speaker 4: we're gonna find out if West Virginia can have a
Speaker 4: better season they did last next year, I refuse to
Speaker 4: talk about pitt.
Speaker 3: Okay, Michigan's got a cupcake on the schedule, So.
Speaker 2: IOWA records is up on Howard thirty eight to seven.
Speaker 1: Look at this chat room going going.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going.
Speaker 1: I'm obviously looking forward to the game that I'm going
Speaker 1: to be covering the Florida the Miami Hurricanes versus Florida Gators.
Speaker 2: That's gonna be a dog fight.
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting. This is this is Mario's third year
Speaker 1: as head coach, and I think they're gonna be able
Speaker 1: to do some a little bit of damage this year,
Speaker 1: but we'll see.
Speaker 4: Let me say this, Candy and and I know you
Speaker 4: guys like the Hurricanes and all that, but I think
Speaker 4: if he fails this year, I think he's out and
Speaker 4: Miami's just gonna have to eat his contract because, uh,
Speaker 4: I just don't see to Miami, alum letting this go on.
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, if he has a bad year,
Speaker 4: I mean, they paid a lot of money to get
Speaker 4: him there, and uh, you know.
Speaker 2: So.
Speaker 1: They did.
Speaker 2: Josh wanted to know what was for ended and I
Speaker 2: had stuffed cabbage.
Speaker 3: I'm not doing another dog check. I'm done dog Jack.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had stuff cabbage.
Speaker 1: Yes, and plumbs versus Georgia is a big game this weekend.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's another good one. How about the How about
Speaker 2: the Georgia Tech Florida State game? Georgia Tech beat them.
Speaker 3: I had fried chicken tenders. If anyone needs to know
Speaker 3: what I had for dinner, I.
Speaker 1: Had fish and zucchini.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a good combination. There it is it is.
Speaker 2: Did you trust Gordon's fisherman?
Speaker 1: I know i've before, but I hope you of M
Speaker 1: doesn't fall flat on their face because Jim Harbaugh is gone.
Speaker 1: I don't think they. I don't think they will fall
Speaker 1: flat on their face.
Speaker 3: I said. It's an eighty or nine win season compared
Speaker 3: to compared to winning the national championship, going undefeated. That's falling.
Speaker 4: No, I'm not Polish, but my first wife was Ukrainian
Speaker 4: and she used to make stuff cabbage all the time,
Speaker 4: some of the best. No, I'm not Polish, I'm Italian
Speaker 4: and Irish.
Speaker 1: Jealous of candy. I had nothing and liked it not well.
Speaker 1: I came home and cooked.
Speaker 2: We got some great people here tonight.
Speaker 3: Yes, there you go, Ralph. That stuff will make your
Speaker 3: head right to the Nugget repository.
Speaker 2: Yes, we.
Speaker 1: Do have quite a few people chatting the Knight. That's
Speaker 1: that's awesome.
Speaker 3: Yeah, from on all the channels. It's not just the
Speaker 3: other They're all over the blaze and I love it.
Speaker 2: That's great that this show has gone to this. That
Speaker 2: is great.
Speaker 1: So let's see you guys want to hear a fun fact.
Speaker 1: Gage Goldberg, son of Bill Goldberg, wrestler, plays football for
Speaker 1: Colorado and Bill played for Georgia.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Colorado has a day on Hayes. He's a
Speaker 2: defensive lineman. He plays for them. Now. He was with
Speaker 2: pitt and he's from.
Speaker 4: The local, uh, from the Pittsburgh Public schools. He played
Speaker 4: for Westinghouse, who is one of the powerhouses in non
Speaker 4: western Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: We love it when the south ord Of Tribune addresses
Speaker 1: the chat. Sometimes Scott ignores us. It depends on what
Speaker 1: you what the topic is and if you guys are
Speaker 1: commenting that on the topic, or if we're letting you
Speaker 1: guys just roll and talk, because it just depends. So
Speaker 1: sometimes Scott is very scripted.
Speaker 3: Can I read it how he meant to say it
Speaker 3: instead of how it's spelt. For Orlando's last comment here.
Speaker 3: Sure his daughter is going to be an Olympic shot
Speaker 3: putter soon. I don't think we can say that other
Speaker 3: word on the air because this is Scott Stanley. He
Speaker 3: don't like those words.
Speaker 1: True, too true, and thank you. Will I will tell
Speaker 1: Scott you say hi. He's battling with some issues with
Speaker 1: his throat and stuff like that. So that's why he
Speaker 1: is no longer technically going to be on Thursday nights.
Speaker 1: We're going to try and keep him off, so he
Speaker 1: only does shows three nights a week, which is still plenty.
Speaker 1: But I appreciate you saying hi to him, just trying
Speaker 1: to support good content. Well, we appreciate that. Thank you,
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. So what do we think about
Speaker 1: Let's see Pittsburgh named Wilson now the starter. Yes, that
Speaker 1: what you thought was gonna happen.
Speaker 2: I thought so because Mike Tomlin, that's the way it
Speaker 2: is with him. You know, he could be the worst
Speaker 2: quarterback in the league, and whoever comes in, he just says, oh,
Speaker 2: you're the starter. It was a good quarterback. What they
Speaker 2: call what they said was a quarterback battle.
Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin has a bad habit of Towne did that
Speaker 4: with Trubisky and Pickett, and then he ended up naming
Speaker 4: Trubisky the starter anyway, you know, uh, he makes it
Speaker 4: look for something to media.
Speaker 2: To write to or say or whatever, you know, keep
Speaker 2: them on their toes.
Speaker 4: And Brandon Ayuk is not coming to the Steelers because
Speaker 4: he signed today with San Francisco.
Speaker 1: So mm hmm. Joshua Door wants to know, Ralph, how
Speaker 1: long have you been in the.
Speaker 2: Business broadcasting business overall? Thirty years?
Speaker 4: Was once a radio DJI now DJ weddings and parties
Speaker 4: on my own and I've been in the podcasting business
Speaker 4: since after since a little before covid I started broadcasting
Speaker 4: in Raleigh in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 1: Let's see what the other NFL news do we want
Speaker 1: to talk You want to talk about, Jeremy, You want
Speaker 1: to talk about Brandon.
Speaker 4: I'm Brandon Ayuka signed by San Francisco and they said
Speaker 4: they were going to trade him anyway, so it doesn't matter,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 3: How much rich dealing what she just asked me to
Speaker 3: talk about.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Jeremy, I mean, god, do you want to
Speaker 2: talk about?
Speaker 3: And I was like, I've been saying for weeks that
Speaker 3: Brandon Ayuk wasn't going anywhere because they made the asking
Speaker 3: price too high and no one would trade for him
Speaker 3: to do that, then have to resign him so he'd
Speaker 3: come crawling back the same way they did two years
Speaker 3: ago with Deebo Samuel. Uh, and that's exactly what happened.
Speaker 1: I was hoping he was I was hoping he was gone.
Speaker 1: Got Kittle on my fantasy.
Speaker 3: Kittle still gets it.
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 2: Hello r g j X, Yeah, Hello. No, I'm not
Speaker 2: a Tomlin fan.
Speaker 4: Orlando Tomlin is a fake and a phony and uh,
Speaker 4: he's a horrible head coach. And if it wasn't for
Speaker 4: Art Rooney, if Art Rooney the second was not the
Speaker 4: owner and had the majority share of the stakes or
Speaker 4: the stocks, he wouldn't or whatever in the team, Mike
Speaker 4: Tomlin would never be here. One of the minority owners
Speaker 4: actually uh sold his or got out because he wanted
Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin out. He was him and about here are
Speaker 4: four other of the minority owners and uh no, no,
Speaker 4: no can do so.
Speaker 1: Ralph a question to you, do you think James Mann
Speaker 1: will play this year?
Speaker 2: James Man? I don't know who James Man really is.
Speaker 2: I don't know who's he played for.
Speaker 1: Josh what you've got to expand for us. Please, Will,
Speaker 1: are you watching the UCF game? We had the Colorado
Speaker 1: game on in North Dakota. State's given a They're given
Speaker 1: Colorado game that much.
Speaker 4: I can tell you Western Carolina, which is Pitt's offensive
Speaker 4: former or well, Caye Bell, Pitt's offensive coordinator was the
Speaker 4: head coach at Western Carolina last year.
Speaker 2: They're tied with North Carolina State fourteen fourteen.
Speaker 1: Will says, I've got my second team Lions winning ten
Speaker 1: to twelve, but twelve.
Speaker 3: I got the Lions at eleven to thirteen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got some We've got some chokers out there.
Speaker 2: James Man is a journalist. Yeah, that some real makers there.
Speaker 3: Mum hm yep.
Speaker 1: How bad did Dallas screw with a Lamb deal and
Speaker 1: needing to sign Dack and Parsons still heard they also
Speaker 1: just picked up Cook.
Speaker 3: Yes, they picked up Cook to the practice squad. Uh
Speaker 3: steedee Lamb. He got a deal, but it actually is
Speaker 3: a lot friendlier than everybody thought it would be because
Speaker 3: he got like thirty three point five million a year, Uh,
Speaker 3: compared to Justin Jefferson who's up at thirty five. He
Speaker 3: deserved to get paid and they're not. They've already said
Speaker 3: what they're doing with that. They're not doing anything. They're
Speaker 3: letting him play and if they if he actually does
Speaker 3: something in the playoffs, then they'll talk extension with them.
Speaker 3: But until that time, Dak's playing for his contract somewhere else,
Speaker 3: is what he's doing.
Speaker 1: So what do we think about the QB job Jacoby
Speaker 1: Brissett getting it in New England over Drake may.
Speaker 2: Well. I think that was a smart move by a
Speaker 2: new coach. That's what I think.
Speaker 4: Uh, you know, Jacoby Brissett's been there and done that,
Speaker 4: and if he fails, you have your You have Drake
Speaker 4: may there.
Speaker 2: He drafted him in the first round. Let him play. Yeah.
Speaker 2: New England's not gonna do much anyway, but although Drake
Speaker 2: Bay's gonna learn because he's got a good offensive coordinator there.
Speaker 2: And Alex Van pelt Is is Alan Robinson tall.
Speaker 3: I always thought he was kind of on the short
Speaker 3: side when he played short side. Yeah, yeah, I thought
Speaker 3: he was like six foot sixty one at most.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: Tim Patrick, I'll be honest, Tim Patrick is a low risk,
Speaker 3: high reward. We signed him directly to the practice squad,
Speaker 3: which is a league minimum, so that means he has
Speaker 3: probably the best hands in our practice squad right now.
Speaker 3: But the fact he just had an ACL tear two
Speaker 3: years ago and last year it was an achilles tendon repair.
Speaker 3: You're talking about a thirty year old wide receiver who's
Speaker 3: six foot four and two seventeen.
Speaker 2: No, Patty, I didn't start when I was ten and broadcasts.
Speaker 3: I think it is a good deal, but because it's
Speaker 3: low risk, high reward. If he makes the team and
Speaker 3: plays and stays healthy, fantastic. If he doesn't, I equate
Speaker 3: it to what we did in twenty twenty one. It's
Speaker 3: the same as the Terrell Williams signing. It'll be Terrell
Speaker 3: Williams two point zero.
Speaker 1: What do we feel about Atlanta Falcons trading quarterback Taylor
Speaker 1: Heineke to the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a
Speaker 1: conditional sixth round pick.
Speaker 4: Well maybe, uh Rahie Morse. You know, we all know
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins will start. If he's still not hurt, he
Speaker 4: will start down there. You know, they got rid of
Speaker 4: Desmond Ritter, they got rid of Marcus Mariotta. So we'll
Speaker 4: see what Rahie Morris and the gang do down there
Speaker 4: in Atlanta.
Speaker 3: Not cool to do personal attacks.
Speaker 1: Let's see what else. Well I can obviously, I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys, well, I'm sure you guys have
Speaker 1: heard that. For the Packers, AJ Dillon went down. He's
Speaker 1: out for the year with a neck injury. That's not scary.
Speaker 1: That's scary because you can't mess with neck injuries. Well,
Speaker 1: whether that means he's just done for the year, who
Speaker 1: I mean, it could be career. I don't know. That's
Speaker 1: just that's something you don't mess with.
Speaker 2: No, not at all. I have one I know, mm hmmm.
Speaker 3: I'm not naming names, but the comment looks like a
Speaker 3: personal attack to me.
Speaker 2: Which one's that?
Speaker 3: I don't want to say any names.
Speaker 2: I just said this. Oh yeah, no, no, no, I
Speaker 2: know which one you're talking about. Chairman. Sorry, I'm used
Speaker 2: to it, I know. But it's.
Speaker 3: It's a day and age where I don't mind if
Speaker 3: you're gonna talk crap about some doesn't matter. Joshua Door,
Speaker 3: stop bringing it up, good board. Some people can't leave
Speaker 3: well enough alone, can they?
Speaker 1: No, James Burgess, I'm not sure the neck injury is
Speaker 1: going to require fusion. I don't know what they I
Speaker 1: don't think they've disclosed what AJ Dillon is what they're
Speaker 1: gonna do with aj Dillon if he's gone for surgery.
Speaker 1: I have not heard no.
Speaker 3: Asking me to name names is harassing me. I said,
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna name names. I need a second.
Speaker 1: Uh So, and then the Packers acquired Malik Willis from
Speaker 1: the Titans.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's interesting. Uh.
Speaker 4: You know, we were talking about that last night, about
Speaker 4: Malik Willis. You know, he's an interesting case. Played at Liberty.
Speaker 4: I watched him in the Senior Bowl and I thought, well,
Speaker 4: you know what, this guy, this guy could be a
Speaker 4: good NFL talent. His grade feet, good footwork and throw.
Speaker 4: Then he goes to the Tennessee Titans. Arthur Smith leaves
Speaker 4: to go to Atlanta. He goes to the Tennessee Titans,
Speaker 4: and I can't remember who their offensive coordinator was after
Speaker 4: Arthur Smith left, but anyway, uh, just uh, it just
Speaker 4: didn't work out for him there, you know. And now
Speaker 4: he's with Green Bay. We'll see what happens. You know,
Speaker 4: sometimes a change of pace, a change of scenery just
Speaker 4: might work for you. And Matt Lafleur and his gang
Speaker 4: are pretty decent at working with quarterbacks, so let's see
Speaker 4: what he what they can do with Malik Willis. Malik
Speaker 4: Willis might end up being a good, a really good.
Speaker 1: Backup the Packers let the other two go.
Speaker 2: So, yeah, that's crazy. Well, Matt Lafleura must know something, Candy.
Speaker 2: It's that simple.
Speaker 1: I sometimes I think it's players in the wrong situation
Speaker 1: with the wrong coaches that they just need the right
Speaker 1: coach to come along and help them out. So, I mean,
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting, let's see. I mean, I hope, let's
Speaker 1: face it, I hope we never have to see Malik
Speaker 1: Willis in there. But you never in the same breath.
Speaker 1: You just never know.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, exactly, we know, miliek Willis. That's the bad part. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I can't believe. And I said this last year when
Speaker 3: things were bad, Candy, and you were a Packers fan,
Speaker 3: and I know you follow some of those Packers chats.
Speaker 3: I think it was around week four or five we
Speaker 3: heard everybody.
Speaker 1: Star Shawn Clifford, Jordans.
Speaker 3: Sucks, blah blah this, blah blah that, and now who's
Speaker 3: on the team and who's not Yah, Sliffer's on the
Speaker 3: practice squad. They literally traded for Malik Willis, which we've
Speaker 3: seen him start in NFL games, and we know he's
Speaker 3: not good, no, and let him have the quarterback too,
Speaker 3: while Sean Clifford's sitting on the practice squad because Michael
Speaker 3: Pratt went somewhere else.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: And statistically the best preseason rostered quarterback for Chicago, Brett Ripian,
Speaker 3: is now the backup for Sam Darnold in Minnesota because
Speaker 3: he was signed today.
Speaker 1: Kind of funny how things maneuver.
Speaker 2: Right, Oh, absolutely, And Ryan Tannehill still sitting out there too. Well.
Speaker 1: Ryan has come out and said that he does not
Speaker 1: want to be anybody. He's number two, so it's number
Speaker 1: one for him or not.
Speaker 2: Well, that's why he's still sitting there.
Speaker 3: And he said he's perfectly happy to sit at home
Speaker 3: with his family and wait for a quarter not wishing
Speaker 3: for it, but wait to see if a quarterback goes down,
Speaker 3: and you'll call that team to be their starter, right right,
Speaker 3: which is kind of smart and dumb at the same time.
Speaker 3: You want to know why because when you get there,
Speaker 3: you gotta learn the playbooks. I means they're still starting
Speaker 3: that other quarterback first.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: Joseph Austin. His backup was Malik Willis. I don't think
Speaker 3: he could mentor him.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, mm hmm, well before a Cama hand some
Speaker 2: pretty decent offensive mind.
Speaker 4: He's got's fat are there too at Tennessee. It's too
Speaker 4: bad that they didn't, you know, take a chance with
Speaker 4: him a little bit. But you got me some rooteopher
Speaker 4: and you know, so they don't evenlik Willis.
Speaker 3: And the guy will love us.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Okay, guys, my town, Okay, we can always
Speaker 1: go back to some more other topics, but let's let's so, Jeremy,
Speaker 1: what's happening in your town that you want to talk about.
Speaker 3: Well, the preseason's done, the fifty two man roster is set,
Speaker 3: and thank god, Jake from with three days look better
Speaker 3: in one quarter than Nate Suckfeld is loose. Sorry I
Speaker 3: went to my nicknames again. Nate Sudfeld has looked in
Speaker 3: two seasons of pre season work with Detroit. Your comments
Speaker 3: are not blocked, no, but that being said, it is
Speaker 3: what it is. We got our sixth We had sixteen guys,
Speaker 3: but with the cutting of CJ. Moore. Yes, I did
Speaker 3: see that Ford Field was completely sold out for a
Speaker 3: preseason game. No one has been able to let me
Speaker 3: forget that it had. It was sold out for a
Speaker 3: preseason game. I'm not as hyped about a preseason game
Speaker 3: being sold out as some people are, because, you know what,
Speaker 3: it's still a preseason game. All that is is extra
Speaker 3: money for the owners while the players make less. I'm
Speaker 3: it's a nice thing. Congratulations, we did it. On the
Speaker 3: bigger and better things. My goals are way bigger, bigger
Speaker 3: than selling out a preseason game.
Speaker 2: Probably to the answer to the pork chock question.
Speaker 1: Ralph, what's happening in your neck of the woods, Well.
Speaker 4: We lost Isaac Salamalu for a month. He has a
Speaker 4: pectoral injury and they had to do some shuffling in
Speaker 4: the line. They have a choy in front of Marrow.
Speaker 4: He's going to be in the right tackle position. Dan
Speaker 4: Moore is going to swap back and forth, and Roderick
Speaker 4: Jones will play left tackle open door. Dan Moore will
Speaker 4: be swapping back and forth depending on what where the
Speaker 4: needs are. Also, Russell Wilson is officially our starting quarterback.
Speaker 4: He looked pretty good in the last preseason game. Of
Speaker 4: course it was just preseason, but he looked he looked okay,
Speaker 4: and so that's where we're going to go with him.
Speaker 4: I'm interested to see what the defense is going to do.
Speaker 4: We have some injuries there as well. Well, we'll find
Speaker 4: out what happens this year. That's so boat good Jeremy.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I was just gonna tell Candy you don't
Speaker 3: have to put that one on the screen. That was
Speaker 3: in my comments for my channel. He asked what my
Speaker 3: nickname for Caleb was, so I taped it out.
Speaker 1: Yep, I hear you, I see him.
Speaker 4: So anyway, the Pirates, on the other hand, got blown
Speaker 4: out two games against the Cubs, and then the last
Speaker 4: game last night they were up ten to three and
Speaker 4: they lost to the Cubs again. So you know that's
Speaker 4: where the Pirates are. They're in last place again. I
Speaker 4: hope somebody gets fired at the end of the season,
Speaker 4: but I highly doubt it because nobody wants to work
Speaker 4: for ball Nutting, the owner anyway. So that's it there
Speaker 4: really for me. Penguins are getting started up. Hockey training
Speaker 4: camps are coming up in September, and we're gonna see
Speaker 4: what happens with hockey as.
Speaker 2: We go along. So you know that's my town right now. Candy.
Speaker 2: Oh and by the way, I'm back from the Erie
Speaker 2: Grove City.
Speaker 3: So Joshua door, please the only thing I got upset
Speaker 3: about is you keep talking about the issue. The issue
Speaker 3: didn't concern you where I'd have said something.
Speaker 1: So my town. Well, let's see town down here. I'm
Speaker 1: still stoked that I get to cover the Hurricanes Gators game,
Speaker 1: but I have to. I have to give kudos to
Speaker 1: MI Milwaukee Brewers. They are still in first place in
Speaker 1: the NL Central, up nine and a half games, Yet
Speaker 1: at August twenty ninth, nobody gave them. Nobody thought they
Speaker 1: were going to win the National League Central. Starting this
Speaker 1: year knowing that Craig Council left, knowing that we have
Speaker 1: Pat Murphy is his first year and I think he
Speaker 1: is doing an astronomically good job. I think he should
Speaker 1: win Coach of the Year. To be honest with you,
Speaker 1: he is playing with a lot of rookies. Candy, can
Speaker 1: we get the score on the So put the score
Speaker 1: in the chat and I'll put it up for you, Blase.
Speaker 1: I'm not exactly sure, but kudos to them. I am
Speaker 1: hoping they continue. Let's see US f fifty seven to
Speaker 1: New Hampshire three. That is the score right now, so
Speaker 1: everyone can see it.
Speaker 3: Okay, you see f e CFS fifty seven to New
Speaker 3: Hampshire's three Holy Schmokes. They scored twenty three points in
Speaker 3: the second quarter in so far twenty three, twenty eight
Speaker 3: points in the third quarter.
Speaker 1: Well, it's like Central Michigan and is up sixty six
Speaker 1: to Central Connecticut, sixty six to ten.
Speaker 2: Central Connecticut's in the Northeast Conference. Candy, they play with
Speaker 2: Robert Morrise.
Speaker 1: You know, so what about Arkansas fifty six to Arkinsau.
Speaker 1: I don't even think Arkansas hind Bluff Golden Lions fifty
Speaker 1: six to nothing.
Speaker 3: Broskie, Broskie Barry said, my nickname about Kaleb cracks him up.
Speaker 2: Dark Quarter. My NC State wolf Pack up seventeen fourteen
Speaker 2: on Western Carolina.
Speaker 1: And Coach Prime taking it to North Dakota is halftime
Speaker 1: and North Dakota is up twenty to seventeen. So Coach
Speaker 1: Prime is not taking it to North Dakota. He is
Speaker 1: losing to North He's.
Speaker 3: Oh, North Dakota, all right, he just took it on
Speaker 3: the wrong way.
Speaker 1: Well, and they're at home. But yes, they want to
Speaker 1: get to one hundred of up.
Speaker 3: I don't know about that. But the guy I really
Speaker 3: wanted to make the Lions. I do want to add
Speaker 3: this real quick. Matthew Betts, the CFL Defensive Player of
Speaker 3: the Year. He did not make the team. He was
Speaker 3: not added to the practice squad, and he has signed
Speaker 3: a contract to day back with the British Columbia Lions.
Speaker 3: So even though he left the Lions, he's still a
Speaker 3: Lion at heart.
Speaker 4: Ah, we just took res Plumbley from UCS put him
Speaker 4: on the practice squad. They were supposed to use him
Speaker 4: kick return and wide receiver and you know, hand out
Speaker 4: water and towels and stuff.
Speaker 2: But they put him on a practice squad. Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: It is a bummer about Bets. I hated it because Ralph,
Speaker 3: you know, the play I'm talking about was when Fields
Speaker 3: first got on. It was his first third down in
Speaker 3: that drive, when you guys had the big play at
Speaker 3: the end of it. Betts makes a sack. But because
Speaker 3: Steven Gilmour holds a wide receiver five yards downfield where
Speaker 3: the play wasn't even at and the ball and Fields
Speaker 3: wasn't even looking that way, it's defensive holding in an
Speaker 3: automatic first down. It negated a sack against your first
Speaker 3: string offensive line, and I think that ultimately cost him
Speaker 3: his job.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Ron, thank.
Speaker 1: You for tuning in tonight. Appreciate it, have a blessed
Speaker 1: thank you.
Speaker 3: Don't do too much bad there, br Brent I said
Speaker 3: he said I gotta go to bad. He didn't say that,
Speaker 3: he said bad, He's going to bed. I usually do
Speaker 3: bad and then I gotta be punished for it, and
Speaker 3: I usually had to call someone to do it for
Speaker 3: me because I don't like hitting myself.
Speaker 1: Do you want to a shout out to Caitlin Clark.
Speaker 1: She set the w NBA rookie three point record, so
Speaker 1: good for her.
Speaker 3: She's not done setting records. She's gonna set a different
Speaker 3: record every year her career.
Speaker 2: In the w n B.
Speaker 1: A mm hmm, but good for her. Good to see that.
Speaker 3: Just looking at the comments and they're going back and
Speaker 3: forth and it's hilarious. My guys on my channel area,
Speaker 3: who Joshua Door, that's what you're missing?
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Robert Morris plays. Their first game is against Utah State
Speaker 4: at Utah State. That's gonna be an interesting.
Speaker 1: I do have to give a shout out to Cocoa Gaw.
Speaker 1: She's from Deerfield Beach, Florida, and she actually won her
Speaker 1: second round here at the US Open, so good luck.
Speaker 2: To congratulations on her exactly, exactly.
Speaker 1: Anything else you guys want to talk about.
Speaker 3: The Rams might be in trouble week one. Really, they've
Speaker 3: lost both their starting tackles. They lost two of their
Speaker 3: tackles to the waiver wire. They lost a guard to
Speaker 3: the waiver wire. Jonah Jackson, I don't know what he hurt.
Speaker 3: I won't use my uh my joke, I said, but
Speaker 3: last year he missed four weeks due to a hangnail
Speaker 3: as an offensive lineman. He look, he missed four weeks due.
Speaker 2: To a boo boo, boo boo, due to a boo boo.
Speaker 3: So I that's that's the main reason why the Lions
Speaker 3: didn't want to give him that big money and lo
Speaker 3: and behold, the Rams pade him eighteen million dollars and
Speaker 3: he didn't even make it out of the offseason. It's
Speaker 3: not a good look. They gave him three years fifty
Speaker 3: four million, and I said, you watch, I said, he's
Speaker 3: gonna miss games this year because he hadn't missed a
Speaker 3: game until this past year with Detroit. And when he
Speaker 3: started missing him it was two from here, two from there,
Speaker 3: three here. He missed the total eight games last year.
Speaker 3: And my Dad says, I can't believe they snubbed her
Speaker 3: from the Olympic. It really wasn't a snub. It's a technicality.
Speaker 3: When the Olympic trials were going on for the women's
Speaker 3: basketball team, Caitlin and Angel Reese, neither one of them
Speaker 3: got to play in it because they were in the
Speaker 3: national championship run in the women's sweet sixteen. So there's
Speaker 3: a reason why they didn't make it. Yes, Joseph Austin,
Speaker 3: he got eighteen million a year. It was either eighteen
Speaker 3: million or seventeen to five. It was some stupid number
Speaker 3: that I'm glad we didn't play, hey, because look at statistically,
Speaker 3: Kevin Zeitler, the guy we signed for six million at
Speaker 3: a third of his price, is twice The offensive guardian.
Speaker 4: Is Yeah, I've said this many times Jeremy and Candy,
Speaker 4: that there are some people who are a day overpaying
Speaker 4: their bumps. And you know it happens all the time,
Speaker 4: and you'll get a guy who might be a rookie
Speaker 4: and he might play better than the veteran you're paying
Speaker 4: big money too, and that's when you know you have
Speaker 4: to cut him. But the sad part about it is,
Speaker 4: like you said, chere me with the Rams. They're they're
Speaker 4: in deep trouble if they go out with some of
Speaker 4: these guys and then, you know, end up having an
Speaker 4: egg on their face.
Speaker 1: Well, I know we don't normally talk a lot of basketball,
Speaker 1: but how do you guys feel about the Warriors paying?
Speaker 1: They signed Steph Curry to a one year, sixty two
Speaker 1: point six million dollars extension.
Speaker 2: Wow, one year.
Speaker 3: With it being a one year thing, I hope it's
Speaker 3: set up with a Bobby Benia type of contract. It's
Speaker 3: just playing stupid.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly exactly.
Speaker 1: He the They agreed to a one year, sixty two
Speaker 1: point six million dollar extension that keeps him under contract
Speaker 1: through the twenty six to twenty seven season. Curry, thirty
Speaker 1: six years old, is guaranteed to receive one hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy eight million dollars over the next three years of
Speaker 1: his contract.
Speaker 2: Wo. Wow, it'll be Steph Curry.
Speaker 3: That the only game that looks like it's a game
Speaker 3: right now being played, that's WCu Western Colorida Carolina Universe
Speaker 3: or Carolina University versus NC State is up twenty one
Speaker 3: to seventeen. That's an upset alert people. Yes, it is
Speaker 3: Kansas is beating the Community College Lyndenwood. They're playing thirty
Speaker 3: four to nothing. Missouri is beating Murray State thirty five
Speaker 3: to nothing. Utah is up right now fourteen to nothing
Speaker 3: over Southern Utah. And that's the scores we didn't hear already.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, okay, anything else you guys want to talk
Speaker 1: about tonight?
Speaker 4: No, The only thing I want to say is, uh,
Speaker 4: you know, it's October fourth, two to three pm Saturday,
Speaker 4: October fourth. Sports Corner goes back on the radio with

Speaker 1: got anything fun planned besides obviously we know my plans
Speaker 1: going to the swamp, but anything you guys have planned
Speaker 1: for the long weekend.
Speaker 4: No, I'm just resting from my vacation actually, as we
Speaker 4: didn't get a lot of rest, but I will be
Speaker 4: doing that. I'm watching the Bash of Berlin for WWE.
Speaker 4: I might just check out the pick game a little bit,
Speaker 4: but I want to see the West Virginia Penn State
Speaker 4: game more so.
Speaker 2: You know, I.
Speaker 3: I actually need to do some self quality control, so
Speaker 3: I am going to be inspecting the inside of my
Speaker 3: eyelids as much as possible for pin holes.
Speaker 2: Expecting your eyelids. I like that one's.
Speaker 3: Ales hopefully not because I want to get some sleep. No,
Speaker 3: that literally is it? Last weekend? I did something that
Speaker 3: I do around that time of year because it was
Speaker 3: my grandmother who was my second mom. She passed away
Speaker 3: about about thirteen years ago. Now it seemed like it's
Speaker 3: been that long. But so on her birthday or somewhere
Speaker 3: around her birthday weekend I usually go up and spend
Speaker 3: time where I laid her in my eldest son's ashes.
Speaker 2: So I.
Speaker 3: Did that last Saturday. I got out of work, I
Speaker 3: drove up there, fell asleep talking to them, got back
Speaker 3: in the car, drove home and it was five a.
Speaker 3: Bye said what time did you get home?
Speaker 2: Five am?
Speaker 3: Where were you? I told you where I'd be, and
Speaker 3: she goes, oh, yeah, you know that was her mom.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But the pier there in Anascota, for anybody that knows
Speaker 3: where it is, it's across from the essable here On campground,
Speaker 3: which is now a Millennium campground. Back then it was
Speaker 3: a It was a gravel road that went meandered through
Speaker 3: like four rows of trailers, and my grandma's was the
Speaker 3: third one in from the old bait shot at the
Speaker 3: corner of the point. And so that's why we put
Speaker 3: our ashes there.
Speaker 1: I understand. I understand well, Jeremy. You want to take
Speaker 1: us home like you always do.
Speaker 3: Again, try every day to be a better person than
Speaker 3: you were the day before. It's the only way to
Speaker 3: make the world a better place. It starts right here.
Speaker 3: And you know, not everybody has the same mentality I do.
Speaker 3: When I need to talk, that's what I do is
Speaker 3: I use that time to talk and get things off
Speaker 3: my chest that you don't really want to talk to
Speaker 3: anyone about. Because I live my life not to bring
Speaker 3: anyone down around me.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: So sometimes those one sided conversations they need to be
Speaker 3: had for a long time. Yeah, I always come out
Speaker 3: of that visit better. So please, unless you're talking to
Speaker 3: your rival fan base and you know how I feel
Speaker 3: on my team on my channel, be nice to everybody.
Speaker 3: Everybody deserves love. You can talk trash about their team,
Speaker 3: do not trash the people.
Speaker 1: Correct. Correct. I would totally agree with that because look
Speaker 1: at let's face it, Jeremy, you and I we our
Speaker 1: teams are opposite, not opposites, but they're they're like enemies.
Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. We're yes, we're rivals, we are,
Speaker 1: but yet we both have respect for each other. And
Speaker 1: I would say we both have respect for each other's
Speaker 1: teams to a certain extent. We don't like the other team,
Speaker 1: but we respect and I think that's the one thing
Speaker 1: that so many people have lost, is literally respect for others.
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, I agree with you.
Speaker 3: And I'm sorry, Broski. I saw what you said, and
Speaker 3: now I understood it better. But you know, when you're
Speaker 3: not paying attention to this yet and you look at
Speaker 3: somebody asking somebody how much food can they eat, it's
Speaker 3: not a good look. Yep, that's what I was getting at.
Speaker 1: Let's let's just have a great weekend, a great labor
Speaker 1: Labor Day, and enjoy the games this weekend.
Speaker 2: Yes, happy Labor Day.
Speaker 3: Great, Absolutely, Walter Mitchell. If everybody could treat each other
Speaker 3: the way they want to be treated instead of the
Speaker 3: way you the way you want the way you treat
Speaker 3: an enemy, because that's the way most people talk to
Speaker 3: each other anymore. They don't talk to each other as
Speaker 3: another human being. They talk to them like they hate
Speaker 3: each other. There's enough hate in this world. We have
Speaker 3: enough hate being drummed up by media, politicians and everything else.
Speaker 3: That's why we don't talk politics on the show.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: Happy Labor Day. Why is Labor Day a holiday because
Speaker 3: it celebrates the birthday of the UAW after the big
Speaker 3: sitdown strike that started right here where I'm from, in Flint, Michigan.
Speaker 3: And in that picture outside of Fisher One, which is
Speaker 3: no longer there, and I think it's a travesty that
Speaker 3: that building has gone. My grandfather on the front page
Speaker 3: of the Flint Journal for the day it started. My
Speaker 3: great grandfather, I should say, was the one playing the
Speaker 3: banjo in the picture, William G.
Speaker 2: Rourke.
Speaker 1: Awesome.
Speaker 3: Fast forward to nineteen seventy five, September fifth. Guess what,
Speaker 3: that's the Tuesday after Labor Day. Because back when I
Speaker 3: was a kid, you started the day after Labor Day
Speaker 3: for school. There was some upstart little five four year
Speaker 3: eleven month old kid standing next to a twenty two
Speaker 3: three year old man and it was my dad and
Speaker 3: me on the cover of the metro station section of
Speaker 3: the same paper.
Speaker 1: Okay, guys, Happy Labor Day. Everybody, have a great, safe
Speaker 1: and happy Labor Day. We'll see you next week. Enjoy
Speaker 1: all the games until next time.
Speaker 2: Absolutely
