WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.040 --> 00:00:06.040 Salisbury, Salisbury. 2 00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:08.240 Okay, let's do this. 3 00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:15.039 Sewn Salisburysbury to USC troupe, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury. 4 00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:19.879 Dan matthewscuse, this is the Sewan Salisbury Show. 5 00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:27.440 Chris Gordian for Dan Matthews. Today, our guys Sewn in 6 00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:33.280 the saddle, Triple E down Hall and welcome in as 7 00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:43.000 we celebrate your American League leading Houston freaking Astros. Astros 8 00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:46.640 beat the Diamondbacks last night or yesterday afternoon rather four 9 00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:50.719 to three, sweeping their ass right out of Chase Field, 10 00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:56.200 and the Astros with the best record in the American League. 11 00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:59.320 Now Toronto did win last night, so they they caught you. 12 00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.960 You were for a couple hours, you were at half 13 00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:07.640 a game up on him. But regardless identical records, let 14 00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:10.120 me know if back in February, Shawn, during spring training 15 00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:13.719 that you had Toronto and the Astros tied for the 16 00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:16.640 American League lead on July twenty. 17 00:01:16.319 --> 00:01:19.480 Fourth, these three years ago count where you pick Toronto 18 00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:23.840 and they've finally nobody's picking them, and they're they're they're there. 19 00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:26.239 I guess we could say over achieving or probably doing 20 00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.239 what we kind of expect them to a few years 21 00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.079 because they've always had pitching, and we know and talk 22 00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:33.560 about a resurgence. George Springer's having himself a good year 23 00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:37.599 as well. Yeah, you know, what's really a trip about this, Gordy? 24 00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:39.920 And maybe I've mentioned you, I know I've talked about Dan. 25 00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:45.120 Excuse me, is if I would have told you they're 26 00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:47.599 eighteen games, I believe seventeen or eighteen might have been 27 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:49.959 eighteen over five hundred. I think it's eighteen games right 28 00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:54.000 now and in first place, and obviously, you know, tied 29 00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:55.599 for the best record in Major League or in the 30 00:01:55.599 --> 00:02:00.120 American League. So I will ask you this. Jordan's start, 31 00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:07.400 d h Paenias at shortstop. They're all healthy, including Garcia 32 00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:10.280 and Javier. I mean this ros so other than a 33 00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.719 few guys that are banged up with you know, Wiznsky's 34 00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.360 out just a few of it, the majority are healthy. 35 00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:19.280 You know that sixteen dudes you talked about yesterday and 36 00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:21.840 I said, this is their record? What would you say, 37 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:23.719 Spring Train if I told you this is what they 38 00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:25.199 were going to be one hundred games in? 39 00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:27.400 So it makes sense you're not almost to be having 40 00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:30.879 a career year. Uh, you know, all the pitching staff's rocking. 41 00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.400 And roll in. Now do this one. All these guys hurt. 42 00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:36.719 And I told you this at spring training, and this 43 00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.800 was going to be the lineup mixed in with a 44 00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:41.960 little triple A, maybe even a double A guy who's 45 00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:44.360 played Triple A who's coming. Just a mix and match. 46 00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:46.080 And here's who your pitching staff was going to be. 47 00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:49.919 Then what would you tell me? This was their record? 48 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.439 They're in third place in aosh, well was this record? 49 00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:57.240 Oh no, no, but forget that. I take it back. Yeah, 50 00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:00.919 right now do it. The third layer is I told 51 00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:02.319 you this is how it's gonna be. I don't know 52 00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:03.919 what their record is gonna be. Gordy, where do you 53 00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:04.520 think they're game? 54 00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.199 I'd have them third place in al Wes, probably behind 55 00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:08.400 the Rangers and the Mariners. 56 00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:10.319 I mean eight nine games out. 57 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:12.719 Saying like God, I hope they could get on a 58 00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:13.599 heater or something. 59 00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:18.840 It's incredible, it really is. Is I mean just put 60 00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:19.680 out there yesterday. 61 00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:23.159 Yes, if you tell me Tramell leading off in, Victor 62 00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.759 Carrottini batting two hole. I said to us, if you 63 00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:29.039 told me that in February, I would have been like there, 64 00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:31.280 things went poorly wrong. 65 00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.039 Who's getting fired? Right? 66 00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:33.919 Yeah? 67 00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:37.879 Joe Spotty was fired and somebody's an interim coach, like 68 00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:41.400 It's just true. It almost looked like show. When I 69 00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.000 saw that lineup card yesterday, I went, oh, they felt 70 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:44.759 good about winning the. 71 00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:47.400 First win the series two or three and now we 72 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:50.599 move on so with travel day, right? So so with that, 73 00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:55.439 I mean, isn't there something? And I know it's weird, 74 00:03:56.199 --> 00:04:00.719 and isn't there something? What is this? When I say heater? 75 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:04.639 This run they've been on is what, say, a decade worth? Right? 76 00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:05.319 Is that about? Right? 77 00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:09.080 Thirty sixteen first year? Yeah they were, they made a 78 00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:09.719 wild card. 79 00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:14.159 So so a decade worth of run. I'm not saying 80 00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.639 seventeen wasn't sad, first World Series, all those things, but 81 00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:19.120 I'm talking about if you look at the overall picture 82 00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:25.560 and how they've done it, tell me how this isn't 83 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.040 as satisfying or as impressive as anyone they've had because 84 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:32.279 we knew it, you know, back in seventeen and in 85 00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:35.519 nineteen and twelve, they've they've you know, pitching staff and 86 00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:40.319 veterans and load loaded their lineup pretty damn good. You 87 00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:44.800 can't tell me that this isn't as impressive a season 88 00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:48.120 they've had in this decade run. Considering all the circumstances, 89 00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:51.480 there's no way that that we can't think that this 90 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.600 is if it ain't first, it ain't third. Does that 91 00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:56.600 make sense? It's got the sounds in between the two. 92 00:04:56.959 --> 00:05:00.439 It's been a phenomenal. Now how it ends is obviously 93 00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:03.360 usually the way we judge the season, but to date, 94 00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.000 there's not a soul. I don't really care who it is, 95 00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:10.120 even the Astros themselves. If I would have told Dana 96 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:11.920 Brown and Joe's Botty, here's what it's going to look 97 00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:17.920 like for you and heading into August and not tell 98 00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:19.560 them what I said I thought their record was going 99 00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:21.199 to be, they would look in and I said, here 100 00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:22.839 is going to be your record. They look at me like, 101 00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:28.600 so what is Altove hitting four twenty and Hunter Brown 102 00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:31.279 and from Er Valdez never lost a game in the first, 103 00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.920 you know, one hundred games of the season. I we'd 104 00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.319 be looking at a lot different. So regardless of the 105 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:38.279 and think about the expectations, and I don't know if 106 00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:41.279 spoiled the right word, but through all this and what 107 00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:46.079 they're doing and pushing twenty games over five hundred, if 108 00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:49.560 you're a fan base, there's got to be you've got 109 00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:53.079 to be optimistic about just think what happens if they 110 00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:57.480 get healthy in August. I'm actually mesmerized by what they've 111 00:05:57.519 --> 00:05:59.680 done this year considering the circumstances. I am because I 112 00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:01.399 would this if everybody was healthy. 113 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:05.800 And for those who didn't see it yesterday, well, first off, 114 00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:07.360 we got to give some love to a guy named 115 00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:11.040 Brandon Walter. Do you think a guy that the astro 116 00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:17.079 has claimed last August? So almost a year ago, no 117 00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:21.000 one even knew his name, Like, no fail, You know, 118 00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:22.720 I was shocked when I look back and I'm like, oh, 119 00:06:22.759 --> 00:06:26.600 that they claimed him last August, just stashed him and 120 00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:28.240 opened up this season. 121 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:29.519 And didn't even know he was here. 122 00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:32.079 Yeah, I was like, who's the redhead guy in the 123 00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:33.279 clubhouster inspirit training? 124 00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:34.040 But he. 125 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:39.639 Starts the year in sugar Land and pitched well and 126 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:42.120 pitched well and got his opportunity came up here on 127 00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.560 it was May twentieth, and pitched five shoutout innings against 128 00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:52.839 the race and basically outside a really one or two hiccup, Sean, 129 00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:55.680 he has been outstanding, you know. 130 00:06:55.720 --> 00:06:57.439 Who it reminds me of. But it came at an 131 00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:01.639 earlier time in the season. Did Walter is when JP 132 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:04.560 France came in when they was necessary, you know, but 133 00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:06.480 he came in the season had already started. You were 134 00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:08.920 kind of using him in the bullpen. You started him, 135 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:12.240 and he was doing both and fulfilled both roles pretty 136 00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:15.600 damn good. It's similar, but having Walter at the beginning 137 00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:18.040 to do what he's I mean, you know where you say, Okay, 138 00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:19.720 well I don't know this guy, but we'll see what 139 00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:21.800 he does because all these injuries have forced him into 140 00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:26.639 this situation. But he's also it almost looks you know, 141 00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:28.800 sometimes when you put a guy in you say, well, 142 00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.560 he's forced into it. He isn't ready. You become desperate 143 00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:33.160 and you start to try and do things as a 144 00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:38.040 player that you normally wouldn't do, and in your performance suffers. 145 00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:40.240 It's almost like he said, oh no, I don't have 146 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:41.959 to do this. I get an opportunity to do it, 147 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:43.959 and he seized it. Man, he's made the most of 148 00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.639 it and he's really been good. And look at the 149 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:50.360 innings he logged yesterday, Gordy. Think about how even just 150 00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:52.560 I know, it sounds so simple going right. 151 00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:55.519 I mean, he'd give you seven seven naun ball and 152 00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:57.240 eighty two pitches. They could have thrown him out. 153 00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:59.839 There for the eighth Yes they could have, and said, 154 00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:02.120 oh we still got fifteen to eighteen pitches to give 155 00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.680 and get him out eight innings. Now that is what 156 00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:08.800 you need to find a way to keep a bullpen fresh. 157 00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:12.560 And he is relished in this and has succeeded and 158 00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:14.959 thrived in it, and it's been impressive. 159 00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:17.759 Man By twenty sixth round draft pick by the Red 160 00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:21.480 Sox twenty nineteen, came up through their system, had a 161 00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:23.480 cup of coffee with him. In twenty twenty three he 162 00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:27.680 made appeared nine games for them. Last year, wasn't even 163 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:29.920 in the bigs, right, and the dream was over. 164 00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:33.120 Yes, And when you the journeyman is what he is 165 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:35.759 and he stops there because he's done one hell of 166 00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:36.679 a job here he. 167 00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:39.759 You have to. 168 00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:41.919 And I said this going into the season. I told 169 00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:44.960 Dan this, and I believe this happens especially on teams. 170 00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:47.320 This is even before you knew all these injuries. I said, 171 00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:49.519 in order for them to elevate, because you thought about 172 00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:53.279 the losses of Bregman and Tucker somebody, I said, two 173 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.720 guys that were not expecting are going to have to 174 00:08:55.759 --> 00:08:58.840 have career years. And you look up and all of 175 00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.600 a sudden, you know, Ratis who's a good player, but 176 00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:06.480 head home run, pop paying your career year, and these 177 00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:10.879 did Jake Myers career year, and they then that's what 178 00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:13.960 they're having. And you need that when you when guys right, somebody, 179 00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:16.759 a guy you don't expect makes the All Star Team, 180 00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:18.759 or you know, a middle infielder all of a sudden 181 00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.440 on some team like man he was supposed to back 182 00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:22.120 up Ozzy Albi's and all of a sudden, next thing 183 00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:23.559 you know, he's in the All Star Game. A guy 184 00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:29.159 and they needed that. Well, Jake Myers' career year, Jeremy Payne, 185 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:32.919 your career year, hell Cam Smith, he'll have many more 186 00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:35.159 better than this. But a rookie is to coming out 187 00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:36.480 of the box, and at times this year is hit 188 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:39.679 lead off and hitting the two hole. So it's just 189 00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.519 somebody else. And Walter on the pitching man on the 190 00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:45.960 mound has been one of those guys. And here they are, 191 00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.159 so you know, you can the brilliance of the way 192 00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:50.360 that they scout talent and the way they evaluate it, 193 00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:52.639 but also the way they developed it. But also when 194 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:54.480 you put him up there, they still got a job 195 00:09:54.559 --> 00:09:57.600 to do, and there's countless guys on the roster. Look 196 00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.559 a look at who contributed again yesterday. Look look at 197 00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:02.080 the names that contributed yesterday. 198 00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:05.120 Yeah, I mean you had that. That ninth inning was 199 00:10:05.159 --> 00:10:08.919 the craziest Sean. I mean they Bennett Sussa blows it 200 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:10.679 in the eighth. I mean that kind of sucked. But 201 00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:12.879 you're tied. You get the double play to end it. 202 00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:13.759 You're Todd was. 203 00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.080 Nighte with the basis pack too, Gordon, Yeah. 204 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:19.639 You go to the ninth Zach Short bunts himself on 205 00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:21.840 for a basit. We go, okay, all right, I'll take it. 206 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:25.320 Taylor Tremmell follows with a butt for a back. 207 00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:27.960 Dude. Two. But now, for all the people out there, 208 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:30.080 the one bunch, you got two in one game, which 209 00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:31.559 is about more than you're going to get the next 210 00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:34.600 thirty for bass hits, for basse hits. 211 00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:36.919 Look, I've yelled for bunts in the past, but I 212 00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:39.879 mean that's that was just insane. And then Christian Walker, 213 00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:42.080 who had hit him a hell of a series. I 214 00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:46.240 joked yesterday, put the VR, the virtual reality headset on 215 00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:48.480 him and let him envision he's either a Dodger Stadium 216 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:50.519 or Chase Field, because that dude can hit. 217 00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:53.639 Look and he's starting to come alive, man, and it's 218 00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:56.960 it's needed, right, so he he comes up clutch Walter, 219 00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.960 he just named back to back. I don't know how 220 00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.799 many times will you see that this year? Basse hit 221 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:06.919 bunts in the same inning late. 222 00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:10.360 In the game, Christian Walker RBI single boom, Yeah, four 223 00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:12.399 to three lead, Josh Hater and the ninth. 224 00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:14.879 Matter of fact, I'm willing to take the bet now 225 00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:17.159 and I haven't looked at the metrics of it well 226 00:11:17.399 --> 00:11:20.960 that no team this year has had back to back 227 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:24.159 bunts for singles. Now, a swinging bunt, maybe an infield hit. 228 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:25.919 I'm talking about, Well, you lay down a bunt and 229 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:29.879 you back to back hits in the same inning in 230 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.200 the same game. You won't see that back to back 231 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:36.279 where guys are getting a bunt in the days of 232 00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:38.759 Rod Crew and each Row and those guys laying one 233 00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:41.320 down and beating it out or a great we just 234 00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:44.559 don't have those anymore. Yeah, once in a while, I'm 235 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:46.919 going to say that that's the first time it's happened 236 00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:48.080 this year and on any team. 237 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:49.799 And it was a day where al Tuove was off, 238 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:52.399 had they pinched hit al Twove, he probably could have 239 00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:54.879 been the third to do it, that's right. But it's 240 00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:57.720 just wild shown because it's a day that they they 241 00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:01.679 had a lineup with no House Altuve, no your On Alvarez, 242 00:12:02.279 --> 00:12:05.240 no East Soak Parades, and no Germany Pina and they 243 00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.480 had eleven hits and one and a fifty. Taylor said, 244 00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:12.519 they took fifteen at bats with runners in scoring position. 245 00:12:12.799 --> 00:12:13.799 You can't ask for more than that. 246 00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:16.320 That's exactly which we and and to be able to 247 00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:18.679 get runs. And it's not just runs, it's the runs 248 00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:20.600 at the right hits like Christian Walker at the key 249 00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:24.440 moments that are good. You know, the solo home run 250 00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:26.600 when you're down eight to nothing is a hard one. 251 00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:29.320 It's the it's the hits like this that come at 252 00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:30.960 the time when you need them, where it's not just 253 00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:33.039 an empty single or an empty home run when the 254 00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.240 game's over. And what do you know, in the same day, 255 00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:39.200 you also get seven innings from a guy not named 256 00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:42.399 Hunter Brown or from ber Valdez. It was it's impressive. 257 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:42.600 Man. 258 00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:44.919 Like I said you, we can complain all we want 259 00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:46.759 about man and this injury and what's going on with 260 00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:48.600 this guy, and we keep hearing that his day to day, 261 00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:52.759 and yet this team's eighteen games over five hundred and 262 00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:54.759 the best record, tied for the best record in the 263 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:57.360 American League. There's not a solo live who expected this. 264 00:12:57.919 --> 00:12:59.960 They're just it isn't. I don't care how much confidence 265 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:01.879 you have in your team. There's no way you saw 266 00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:04.879 this coming. And maybe just maybe all that stuff of 267 00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:07.320 when you get here, there's something in the water or 268 00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:11.000 whatever it is, and it's it's held true. I've seen 269 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:14.559 it hold true for a damn decade here. The rapper 270 00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:16.840 may change, but the performance by the player seems to 271 00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:19.919 get it done on a regular basis. So and they're alive, 272 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:20.440 and well. 273 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:22.840 The tough part becomes, and we'll kick this around while 274 00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.399 we return. Who leaves when some of the other guys 275 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:28.159 get back, who's heading out. 276 00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:29.919 Well, it's a good problem to have. It is a 277 00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:31.320 problem because it's gonna happen. 278 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:33.440 We'll talk about that next Sean Salisbury show. We're on 279 00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:34.919 along here on a Thursday morning. 280 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:40.360 Let's go, this is the Sean Salisbury Show. 281 00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:43.799 We'll get into some observations. I got out there for 282 00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:46.159 a little bit, give you some takes what I saw 283 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:48.679 a little bit later in the show. But Sean doing 284 00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:51.159 the postgame show yesterday, we were getting a lot of 285 00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:55.440 calls from folks saying, look, I'm loving it, Sastro's four 286 00:13:55.519 --> 00:14:00.159 game win streak, rocking and rolling. But if if I 287 00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:01.840 could be a little bit of a pest, if it 288 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.639 could be a pest, our callers were saying, what are 289 00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:07.159 you do when some of these other guys get back? 290 00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:11.559 Who goes down? I mean, Brandon Walter's pitching great right now, 291 00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:16.200 Colton Gordon's doing his thing, you know, Christian Hoveer comes back? 292 00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:17.120 Who slides out? 293 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.720 So you're telling me that while in the middle of 294 00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:23.159 complaining that we run a triple A roster out there, 295 00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:26.919 now that triple A roster people are worried about them. Yeah, 296 00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.840 you're good, exactly Wait a minute now, So now the 297 00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:32.320 problem isn't all the guys are hurt. The problem is 298 00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:34.200 where we find in space for all the guys that 299 00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:36.080 are performing while the guys are hurt. And are the 300 00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:38.600 guys that are hurt gonna get their gigs back when 301 00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:39.840 they come back automatically? 302 00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:42.639 Yeah, And look, it's pretty obvious when you look at 303 00:14:42.679 --> 00:14:45.320 the forty man roster and you see who the active 304 00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.519 guys are. I mean, we were getting it just I 305 00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:50.399 think people just want to bitch shown because we had 306 00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.159 somebody tweeting yesterday going, what bring John Singleton? Oh, but 307 00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:56.840 if they're not gonna play him, John Singleton is perfectly 308 00:14:56.879 --> 00:14:58.759 fine sitting his ass on the bench. I'm sorry, like 309 00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:01.039 we're playing needed we'n't care. 310 00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:04.279 And well that's like saying on any roster, why he 311 00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:07.000 got twenty six guys, Well we play nine and on 312 00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:08.720 the day the guy and he's arrested, then he'll play, 313 00:15:08.799 --> 00:15:11.080 or if we need him in there, just like the 314 00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:14.639 the the and having that bench where you have the 315 00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:18.519 trust and there's gonna be guys sent down Gordy that 316 00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.200 quite frankly or moved in a in a move at 317 00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:27.159 the trade deadline that you're gonna say, oh damn, but 318 00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:30.600 he went down, man, he was playing good baseball. But 319 00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:34.200 what it also does is it gives the Joe Aspada 320 00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:36.879 in the front office that if it rears its head again, 321 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:38.759 that you trust that you can bring the guy back 322 00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:40.960 without a problem, because you know he can play, and 323 00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:43.399 it's a good problem to have. But you also got 324 00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:46.399 to you know, you got to understand geography and be 325 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:48.440 a real estate agent and a psychologist and all those 326 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:51.919 things when this happens, because well, they've seen the movie before. 327 00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:54.600 This used to be one of those organizations. It was 328 00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:56.799 one of the toughest organizations to break in from the 329 00:15:56.840 --> 00:15:59.279 minor leagues, because it's just like every year you roll 330 00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:01.320 him out, how you gonna breaking the centerfield springers there, 331 00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:03.840 and it's shortstopping Karreya in at second base, and then 332 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:05.559 when they go all of a sudden, you find out, well, 333 00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:08.399 Jake Myers is pretty good, and oh that's right, that 334 00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:10.759 pain you got, he ain't bad. And at third base 335 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:12.559 Parade is doing to go well. Right field, well, okay, 336 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:15.879 you can't replace him. Well, Campsmith's pretty good. So it 337 00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:18.360 gives you while they may go down, it doesn't mean wow, 338 00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:20.679 they're down. Nobody believes in him. It means we don't 339 00:16:20.720 --> 00:16:22.679 have room for him. But now we trust them that 340 00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:24.200 if we have to bring him back at the snap 341 00:16:24.279 --> 00:16:26.600 of a hand and drive him up or down fifty 342 00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:29.200 nine to sixty nine from Sugarland, we got him and 343 00:16:29.279 --> 00:16:32.519 they can trust him. And building that trust is huge. 344 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:37.039 And I'll tell you what, if we're complaining about that, now, 345 00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:40.240 I'll take that complaint all day. Buddy, words like hey man, 346 00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:42.879 what are you gonna do. Now this guy's raking, well, 347 00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:45.360 we just don't have room for him. But now that 348 00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:47.000 we know that, at the drop of a hat he's 349 00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:48.399 got to move, we can call on him to go 350 00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.240 do his thing when he gets here. So nice to 351 00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:54.480 have a great sugar Land and right down, no doubt. 352 00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:56.759 It's I remember that year take long to get here, 353 00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:59.480 the year they were partnered with the Fresno Grizzlies. I mean, 354 00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:02.720 now is ridiculous. They had flights going back and forth. 355 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:04.359 I guy on a plane in California and a guy 356 00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:05.720 on the on the plane back here. 357 00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:07.559 Makes a d The day you're supposed to come here, 358 00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:09.160 you're really not here till the next day here you're 359 00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:11.000 hearing what thirty minutes. 360 00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:13.480 Yeah, you could get a place I don't know, right 361 00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:16.680 right about fifty nine and six ten, and you're right 362 00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:19.160 there in the middle. It's the same distance step you'reger Land, 363 00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:20.079 the same distance. 364 00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:23.480 Over to daykill exactly right. So but impressive, impressive, and 365 00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:26.880 it seems to be like yesterday. You know, you're getting 366 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.400 two guys once again, Gordy and you and I both 367 00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:32.680 watched it. But for the people didn't who were they? 368 00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:35.440 Give me the bunch singles again. They ain't give me 369 00:17:35.519 --> 00:17:37.440 the names. I know, I know when they happened. The 370 00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:42.079 names again, it was Zach Short and Taylor Tremmel. Okay, Bunnett, 371 00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:44.079 the named Christian Walker, who struggled a lot of the 372 00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:46.440 year and is on fire playing pretty good baseball, now 373 00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:47.839 gets a hit to drive him in. 374 00:17:47.960 --> 00:17:50.279 Yeah, I think Caroten he popped out because I looked 375 00:17:50.319 --> 00:17:53.000 away for one second. I turn around and I said 376 00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:54.960 to Ross and said, who the hell's the out? He goes, Oh, 377 00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:58.519 Carotina popped out or whatever, and then Christian Walker comes through. 378 00:17:58.640 --> 00:18:00.680 Christian Walker had multiple hits every game. 379 00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:02.839 Of this year, that's right, and hit it hard. Okay, 380 00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:04.880 And then so with that, and then who gave me 381 00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:08.599 seven innings again? Walter? There you go? And who got 382 00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:09.799 out of a bass loaded jam? 383 00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:11.160 Uh? 384 00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:15.400 Well, Bennett's sussa created the problem. It's another thing too. 385 00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:17.000 Week created if we got the double play to end it. 386 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:19.640 Wait a call a bitch about this too, How baseball 387 00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:25.160 you get the win because you messed up? You created 388 00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.839 the situation. Now you you went in with a lead. 389 00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:30.240 He went in with a three to one lead, came 390 00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:32.519 into the game, and he left the mound and we 391 00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:34.839 were tied three to three and you went. 392 00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:36.839 Up four to three and he gets to yeah, and 393 00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:38.799 sometimes you think, well, man, it's a nice tim and 394 00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:40.599 I got the dub. Now, if nobody looked at how 395 00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:44.079 he got the dub, you're saying, that's huge but still 396 00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:45.839 is but found a way to get out of it, right, 397 00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.519 which is something you have to do. Yeah, And so 398 00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:51.119 just you just the names I'm talking about, think about that, 399 00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:52.880 there's four names right there. At the beginning of the 400 00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:54.319 season you weren't counting on. Yeah. 401 00:18:54.680 --> 00:18:55.960 Well, and it was a day. It was a day 402 00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:59.319 where Bryce Matthews was over at the plate but still 403 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:02.880 drove in a on and flash the leather. He helped 404 00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:05.240 turn the double play. He's been just he's been so 405 00:19:05.519 --> 00:19:08.880 good with that. Defensively and everything. He just looks like 406 00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:09.440 he belongs. 407 00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:12.599 The transformation from shortstop to second base doesn't seem kind 408 00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:14.640 of like Smith going from some to the third base 409 00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:18.240 or some other outfielder position to right field. It almost 410 00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:20.160 feels like, oh, this is just natural. Yeah, that's the 411 00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:22.920 second baseman. That's a right fielder for guys that Oh, man, 412 00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:25.359 I don't know. We'll see how he does. Defensively. I 413 00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:27.119 think you're in pretty good shape. He'll pick that up 414 00:19:27.160 --> 00:19:30.119 quickly and has and another guy that's contributed. And you 415 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:32.720 could tell from Dana Brown's conversation yesterday Gordy when I 416 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:34.359 had him. I don't know if you got to listen 417 00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:37.440 to it all with your schedule yesterday, but you can 418 00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.119 tell they weren't ready. They knew he was ready, but 419 00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:45.279 they weren't. The timing that they weren't ready to bring 420 00:19:45.319 --> 00:19:47.200 Brice S. Matthews up. Does that make sense to you? 421 00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:50.359 It wasn't. I mean, well he's he they would They 422 00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:52.480 wanted the comfort level. And Dana kind of hinted to 423 00:19:52.519 --> 00:19:55.319 it the basically and I paraphrase on my verbiage, but 424 00:19:56.000 --> 00:20:00.200 that it's happening. Just we're good, we don't need he 425 00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:02.039 comes up and well does this thing? What are you 426 00:20:02.039 --> 00:20:02.279 gonna do? 427 00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:04.079 But think when you put something in the microwave, it's 428 00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:06.079 is put in for two minutes and then a minute 429 00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:06.920 thirty you pop it out. 430 00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:09.759 It's good to go. The hot dog. The hot dog's 431 00:20:09.799 --> 00:20:13.319 ready exactly so, and you're like, okay, so does it 432 00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:16.680 still taste good? And comes in and delivers. But I 433 00:20:16.759 --> 00:20:19.160 don't think they expected or wanted to be in this situation. 434 00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:21.240 But that's been the theme of the season. Well, we 435 00:20:21.279 --> 00:20:23.400 didn't expect this. We didn't expect Lancema Cars. We didn't 436 00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:26.720 expect this. We didn't expect that. And yet eighteen games 437 00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:30.240 over five hundred and tied for the best record in 438 00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:33.400 the American League. And that includes who the Detroit Tigers. 439 00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:37.319 Yeah so and the freaking Yankees. That's the thing with 440 00:20:37.400 --> 00:20:41.519 the Blue they hand them another loss. Yankees are what 441 00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:44.759 four games back of the of the ALE lead, So 442 00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:48.720 it's there. I mean again, look on paper, what that 443 00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:51.720 yank the Yankees brought into the season. Most people pin 444 00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:52.880 them as the ALE favorites. 445 00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:57.400 Right, Tigers are ahead of schedule there, aj Hinch doing 446 00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:00.240 aj Hinch things up there, and and they're rocking it one. 447 00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:03.880 But never never would have thought astros in Blue Jays 448 00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:05.319 for the best record in America. 449 00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:07.039 And we know the Yankees are going to do something, 450 00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:12.240 try to do something. And they got a guy Aaron 451 00:21:12.279 --> 00:21:14.240 Judge Homeward won I think twice again last night. Dude, 452 00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:17.519 he's battling for a triple crown. Yeah, I mean his average. 453 00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:19.720 I mean, look, you can't how can you not as 454 00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:23.960 success of a postseason but regular season monster one of 455 00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:24.880 the best we've seen. 456 00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:26.079 Well, one of the best of all time when you 457 00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:28.960 look at the just the sheer numbers he in the 458 00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:30.599 time he's been he's been one of the best of 459 00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:33.759 all time in the regular sites. And now you're adding 460 00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:34.839 batting average to it. 461 00:21:35.119 --> 00:21:37.079 He's taking VP out there nights. 462 00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:40.400 Yes, and I think he's really you know what, he 463 00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:42.559 seems just like a really good dude to me, I 464 00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:44.559 really do. I think he's a I don't put it 465 00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:47.039 this way. I don't ever hear himself promoting. He just 466 00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:50.279 is a good teammate. Thirty seven home runs already, and 467 00:21:50.799 --> 00:21:53.000 the guy is in triple crown because it last time, 468 00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:54.400 who was the last guy to triple crown? 469 00:21:54.480 --> 00:21:54.640 Was it? 470 00:21:54.839 --> 00:21:58.359 Was it a Migey probably won the triple crown one year. 471 00:21:58.480 --> 00:21:59.920 I don't think we've seen it since. I know guys 472 00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:02.799 flirted with it, but it's pretty amazing seeing what he's doing. 473 00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:05.400 As much as we hate the Yankees, I'll give them credit. 474 00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:08.319 Like they're who's the last Yankee you got in trouble? 475 00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:11.880 You know, got busted for drug use, a dw I 476 00:22:12.039 --> 00:22:12.880 or whatever, like it's. 477 00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:15.279 The really you may just Yankees, but you don't really 478 00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:17.480 dislike the player. There's not what's not I mean, there's 479 00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:20.960 there's It's like when Jeter played you people, just Jeter 480 00:22:21.039 --> 00:22:24.000 never bothered me. The old guy that bothered me is 481 00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:26.119 we got base against the Red Sox on a regular base. 482 00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:28.720 I hated it, right, But if you just said, hey, 483 00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:31.920 Jeter wants to be a Red Sox, I'd have said, 484 00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:34.720 right side, yeah. Just like if you told me, hey, 485 00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:36.839 Aaron Gentus ra Angent wants to play in Houston, I'd say, 486 00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:39.640 how quickly can we get him? Regardless of what happened 487 00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:42.559 with the MVP at him and al Tuove and he 488 00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:45.119 that that dude two more home runs. It's just pretty 489 00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:47.079 amazing to watch. But you know they're gonna I can 490 00:22:47.119 --> 00:22:48.920 tell you the Dodgers are going to go all in too. 491 00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:50.759 You know that they're going to spend again at the 492 00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:52.599 trade deadline to see if they can pull something off 493 00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:54.960 to jump ahead with the Dodgers in their position. But 494 00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:57.000 the Yankees to see if they can live up to it, 495 00:22:57.039 --> 00:22:59.640 because in truth, with all that they've had since what 496 00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:02.880 too has it been since two thousand the last time 497 00:23:02.920 --> 00:23:06.279 they won a World Series? The Yankees fifteen ohne nine 498 00:23:06.319 --> 00:23:08.559 it was nine, right, they've been a couple. That's exactly right, 499 00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:12.319 and that was George Steinbrenner last year. Well he passed 500 00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:14.799 away in twenty ten, so think about that. They haven't 501 00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:17.880 won a World Series since George Steinberger passed away. That's 502 00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:20.039 a long time Gordy for them. So, you know, every year, 503 00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:23.319 so we look at them as underachievers because we always 504 00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:26.279 seem they're always favored either win or make the playoffs, 505 00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:28.000 win a division, make the playoffs, or beat in the 506 00:23:28.039 --> 00:23:30.400 World Series. And remember we're just well we're not even 507 00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:32.400 a year removed from the Dodgers beating them in the 508 00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:33.000 World Series. 509 00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:36.799 Yeah, well look, and that's okay. Yeah, you hate to 510 00:23:36.839 --> 00:23:38.519 see it for him. Yeah, what a bummer for them, 511 00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:41.279 all the money wasted and free agency and everything. It's 512 00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:44.200 a damn shame, all right. When we return, some names 513 00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:47.480 being flooded out there for the Astros in the trade deadline, 514 00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:50.160 we'll tell you who the latest names are and do 515 00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:52.400 they need to make a trade.

The Sean Salisbury 548 00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:27.960 Show continued, Yeah, I are you more of a McCartney 549 00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:30.880 guy by himself and with the Wings or Beatles McCartney 550 00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:33.559 If I said you can have the Beatles at their 551 00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:36.119 best or McCartney at his best by himself, which you're 552 00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:39.039 going to be right in Wembley Stadium in London. 553 00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:42.359 That's exactly See he's going on tour, Yeah he is. 554 00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:44.880 This might be your last one to get a chance, 555 00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:46.319 because how old is Paul McCarty. 556 00:25:46.400 --> 00:25:49.400 Got to be in his eighties now upper seventies, early eighties, 557 00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:51.559 got to be in his mid upper seventies. 558 00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:53.079 It has to be eighty three. 559 00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:56.039 There you go. Yeah, I wouldn't imagine there's many more 560 00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:01.680 one hundred and fifty day tours for Paul McCartney in 561 00:26:01.720 --> 00:26:03.599 the future. Not saying I mean he may live till 562 00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:05.240 he' one hundred and ten. I don't know, but at 563 00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:06.839 some point in time you probably say, you know what, 564 00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:09.759 traveling across the country and a bus and a plane 565 00:26:09.799 --> 00:26:12.079 and I'm ninety seven, I probably need to pass. 566 00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:15.160 When you get that age, you notice they add more 567 00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:18.960 and more backup singers on the stagel. 568 00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:20.960 Paul McCarty, the Beatles and seventy four other people in 569 00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:24.440 the in the chorus harmonizing with him. But yeah, the Beatles. 570 00:26:24.519 --> 00:26:28.920 I guess it's like a you know how somebody gets 571 00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:31.039 so much hype. No matter, well, we look at arch Manning. 572 00:26:31.039 --> 00:26:33.160 I'm not comparing to arch Betting to the Beatles. Still 573 00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:35.960 this understanding, but I could compare the Mania, I could 574 00:26:35.960 --> 00:26:38.079 compare Peyton to the to the beat it was pretty 575 00:26:38.079 --> 00:26:41.359 good at his career, right and the way people love him. 576 00:26:42.039 --> 00:26:44.519 But you think about this, no matter how good arch 577 00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:47.559 Manning is, can he ever live up to the hype 578 00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:49.839 Gordian College. You know what I'm saying, I mean that's big. 579 00:26:50.000 --> 00:26:51.960 I mean, you'd have to win a national championship in 580 00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:53.559 a Heisman Trophy this year. To live up to the 581 00:26:53.920 --> 00:26:54.960 Manning hype is what I. 582 00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:57.000 Was saying, keep saying, don't let them lose the week 583 00:26:57.680 --> 00:27:00.519 Losing Week one at Ohio State, no shame in that 584 00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:02.759 they're the rating actual champs and that's a tough place 585 00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:05.519 to play, right, But if they lose that game, the 586 00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:12.680 headline will be all all fluff and no sense. Up 587 00:27:12.720 --> 00:27:15.720 to the hype. Sarks in over his head, it's going 588 00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:17.039 to be ridiculous. 589 00:27:16.559 --> 00:27:19.680 And he goes those for four hundred and they win. Uh, 590 00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:22.400 the next great man, Oh yeah, well he'll walk on 591 00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:26.839 Heisman first pick of the draft. The best thing we've 592 00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:29.799 ever seen, there's no doubt so, and I'm not compared 593 00:27:29.799 --> 00:27:32.640 to it. But in a way, no matter what, after 594 00:27:32.720 --> 00:27:37.960 all this hype, I mean, there's no way you could 595 00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:41.079 ever live up to the way the Beatles are talked about. 596 00:27:41.119 --> 00:27:43.559 So even with all of it, and you're right, the 597 00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:46.519 the uh they're one, there's not You're not usually a 598 00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:49.000 tweener on the Beatles. It's like some people don't like 599 00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:50.759 them because all the hype, say, what's the big deal? 600 00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:53.680 They're walking you know, but they're the Beatles and at 601 00:27:53.720 --> 00:27:57.240 the time they had listen when Howard Cosell's announcing the 602 00:27:57.319 --> 00:27:59.400 death of the lead of the front man for the Beatles. 603 00:27:59.400 --> 00:28:02.400 When that happened on Monday Night Football, normally it's like, oh, 604 00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:04.200 you know, they'd come, they wait till the next day 605 00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:06.839 and stuff. But it's in the middle of a live broadcast. 606 00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:09.400 He's breaking in as if the President of the United States, 607 00:28:09.519 --> 00:28:12.559 Yes at that time. So you know, the younger generation 608 00:28:12.680 --> 00:28:15.359 may not know unless that you think they could. They 609 00:28:15.400 --> 00:28:17.839 would break in and on Monday Night football if they 610 00:28:17.880 --> 00:28:19.559 passed away, that's alive right now. 611 00:28:19.720 --> 00:28:21.000 Yeah, like a current artist. 612 00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:25.039 That's a hell of a question, it is, And I'm 613 00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:27.720 trying to think of you know, I think back then, 614 00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:28.039 it's like. 615 00:28:28.079 --> 00:28:31.519 If got no car crash and died, would they break 616 00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:33.160 into Monday Football with the news? 617 00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:35.960 No, they'd break into Sports Center after Monday Night Football. 618 00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:38.240 That would they would come and say? You know news? 619 00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:40.759 They would because pretty significant, right. 620 00:28:40.920 --> 00:28:44.480 Pop culture enough, that's the e in ESPN, the entertainment right. 621 00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:47.039 Oh you social media blow up with it immediately during 622 00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:51.319 the game, right, well, look look at we'll look at 623 00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:54.200 the guy we just lost. Had this happened during Monday 624 00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:58.160 Night Football, Ozzy Osbourne and Less of Court. Now Joe Buck, 625 00:28:58.200 --> 00:29:00.960 who I know loves music. If and Troy are doing it, 626 00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:04.000 Joe might have said, you know, we just got bad news, 627 00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:06.799 you know, in a break in the game. His producer 628 00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:08.319 might have gotten his ear director and say, hey, man, 629 00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:13.359 if you want to Ozzy Osborne has passed away. Now, also, 630 00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:16.359 how they pass Remember it was tragic for how Lennon's 631 00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:18.000 So how did it just. 632 00:29:18.039 --> 00:29:19.720 Been somebody's assassinated? 633 00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:22.200 Right right? If all of a sudden they're saying, hey, 634 00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:29.160 by the way, uh, you know, I don't know Carrie Underwood, 635 00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:31.640 Carry Underwood got shot in the you know, we don't 636 00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:35.079 want to somebody that you're like Drake George straight. Yeah, yeah, 637 00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:38.440 you might consider, like, oh my gosh, I think you would. 638 00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:41.160 But if he's in the hospital, you'd probably wait till 639 00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:43.680 after the game or something, or people on social media would. 640 00:29:43.680 --> 00:29:46.200 But that, you know what, I'm not real sure. That's 641 00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:49.319 a great question. Yes, I don't. 642 00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:50.880 I don't know if they're breaking in with that. 643 00:29:51.160 --> 00:29:54.000 No, but they did because at the time, the Beatles 644 00:29:54.039 --> 00:29:56.559 wore the icon. There's a lot of great artists. But 645 00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:59.039 we're at a point now, so thing news breaks before 646 00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:02.000 news breaks right, I would think Gordion. I'm trying to 647 00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:06.799 think who is the most popular who's the most popular 648 00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:09.359 global singer right now? Just say singer. 649 00:30:09.920 --> 00:30:11.119 Yeah it's tail Swift. 650 00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:14.480 Okay, perfect, there you go. Because of the day. Now 651 00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:17.440 there's an older generation making now no thanks, But if 652 00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:19.279 you have kids or grandkids, you're like, yeah, she's become 653 00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:25.640 popular again. So yes her if she was assassinated, well, 654 00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:28.400 you'd have to assassinate her in the ballpark because seventeen 655 00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:30.519 games of the Chiefs are on Monday night football and 656 00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:33.079 she's there in the press box. Somebody would have to 657 00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:35.000 shoot her like out of a movie at the press 658 00:30:35.039 --> 00:30:38.559 box because she's there. But if she got assassinated, like 659 00:30:39.319 --> 00:30:42.880 like like uh, they'd stop. Yes, that would be announced 660 00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:47.759 and people, yes, they would be It would be filled 661 00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:50.160 with tears. You know, people would go just I know 662 00:30:50.279 --> 00:30:53.200 when the next day, I mean when you go back 663 00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:56.279 and listen to people, because I was obviously young, but 664 00:30:56.480 --> 00:30:59.119 your family and you listen the way people talked about that, 665 00:30:59.279 --> 00:31:02.160 it's like it was it was as if the president 666 00:31:02.160 --> 00:31:05.200 of the United States was assassinated. Right, And I'm not 667 00:31:05.319 --> 00:31:08.400 I don't mean that they're equal, but in some people's eyes, 668 00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:13.440 they were matters. That's exactly. Yes, that's the perfect point. 669 00:31:13.680 --> 00:31:15.759 If that happened to Taylor Shift. I do believe Joe 670 00:31:15.839 --> 00:31:19.519 Buck and Troy Aikman would would absolutely cut into the 671 00:31:19.559 --> 00:31:22.279 game do it. But it's it's how that would happen 672 00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:25.319 if somebody was ill. They're praying form they think they 673 00:31:25.359 --> 00:31:28.640 may come up, but usually it's that Jim Nance dedication 674 00:31:28.759 --> 00:31:30.960 the year, you know, the week after or when it 675 00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:34.119 comes on the broadcast, they stop down our source. No, 676 00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:36.799 Jim will be the broadcaster that announces, like when they 677 00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:39.480 lose one of their production people. Right, No, Jim's not 678 00:31:39.559 --> 00:31:42.079 ready to go yet either. He lives, dude, He's loved 679 00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:43.799 to tell you two hundred he lives at Pebble Beach. 680 00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:46.119 The Good Lord's gonna say, you're gonna enjoy this view 681 00:31:46.400 --> 00:31:49.640 every day of your life. So but yeah, so so 682 00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:51.319 that's a make. 683 00:31:53.000 --> 00:31:55.680 You know, you think of her catalog on the just 684 00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:58.319 all the hits she's had, all the great hits, and 685 00:31:58.400 --> 00:32:00.720 our prayers go out to Travis Kelsey. Yes, that's right, 686 00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:03.240 but don't worry, folks, we're just talking. She's not gonna 687 00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:06.839 get shot in the booth. That again, Baltimore, How do 688 00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:08.599 you transition back to the game and. 689 00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:11.359 Howard Cosell and I remember you like, what in the 690 00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:13.960 world and you go back and listen to it, and 691 00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:16.640 Howard Cosell's voice it was, you know, it was broken up. 692 00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:21.039 It's obvious that Howard Cosell obviously loved himself. Some Beatles too, right, 693 00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:24.160 So I don't know. Trey Taylor Sweet, You're probably right. 694 00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:27.519 Randy just shouted, he said, what about Mick Jagger. Maybe 695 00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:29.720 Mick Jagger big enough if he passes during. 696 00:32:29.599 --> 00:32:33.559 A maybe maybe maybe Rolling Stones do I mean you're 697 00:32:33.559 --> 00:32:37.440 talking about iconic and I mean that, yeah, probably, But 698 00:32:37.559 --> 00:32:39.759 it also depends on how it happened if it was. 699 00:32:40.359 --> 00:32:42.200 If it was it was a long illness and then 700 00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:45.519 he passed away sometime during halftime or something. Yes, I 701 00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:48.319 do believe they'd come back in and say our heart 702 00:32:48.400 --> 00:32:51.839 felt to Rolling Stones front man, I do. He's eighty one, right, 703 00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:54.799 But if somebody was, if he was assassinated, like one 704 00:32:54.839 --> 00:32:57.279 of those where it was like an intentional thing. Oh, 705 00:32:57.319 --> 00:32:59.079 I don't think there's any doubt that they'd break in. 706 00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:01.960 But of all all of them, if Taylor Swift stubbed 707 00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:04.920 her toe, they announce it on Monday Night football, so yes, 708 00:33:05.079 --> 00:33:07.640 but I'll never forget the word people talk about. 709 00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:11.759 From break h Taylor Swift stubbed your toe. 710 00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:15.279 Well, Lance mccullors blister on her finger. If that happened 711 00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:18.319 to Taylor Swift, people would like, oh my gosh, what's 712 00:33:18.359 --> 00:33:21.240 the world coming to the apocalypse? And the zombies are 713 00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:24.599 walking through Arrowhead Stadium. So yeah, but the Beatles been, 714 00:33:25.000 --> 00:33:27.559 I guess it's hard to live up to all the 715 00:33:27.640 --> 00:33:31.640 pub probably the most publicized band in the history of music, right, 716 00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:33.119 I would say we went. 717 00:33:33.039 --> 00:33:34.559 To Liverpool a couple of years ago we did the 718 00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:37.559 Beatles tour. I mean, you have the pre order tickets. 719 00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:39.160 You can't even to do the. 720 00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:42.440 Beatles yet the people who don't like them absolutely do 721 00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:45.039 not like them, right, So that but that's but that's 722 00:33:45.039 --> 00:33:47.160 what any this like Taylor Swift. There's not a lot 723 00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:49.640 of middle sitters in Taylor Swift. It's either the young 724 00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.279 crowd or the older crowd that loves them to have kids, 725 00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:53.319 or the crowds. It's like, I'm not interested. This is 726 00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:59.599 bubblegum music and I'm not interested. And Taylor Jacket, well 727 00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:01.359 look at the T shirt. He says, I love I'm 728 00:34:01.359 --> 00:34:05.920 a Swift and tell you so. But but you know, 729 00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:07.960 damn what, he goes to the beat, but he can 730 00:34:08.039 --> 00:34:13.519 helmet for us. Yes, and right now, Taylor Swift just 731 00:34:13.559 --> 00:34:18.000 made another million dollars, So as we spill, that's exactly right, 732 00:34:18.119 --> 00:34:18.440 all right. 733 00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:20.719 When we returned, we will get back to what we promised. 734 00:34:20.840 --> 00:34:25.119 Astro's trade deadline names be him thrown out there. 735 00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:26.440 We'll discuss that coming on next. 736 00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:32.840 The Shawn Salisbury Show continues on seven ninety and continues 737 00:34:32.880 --> 00:34:36.480 in your home, Say Alexa play Sports Talk seven ninety 738 00:34:36.519 --> 00:34:37.320 on iHeartRadio. 739 00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:40.840 At one point they put up a graphic and it 740 00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:44.239 was like all time wins and it's Verlander, And I 741 00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:46.440 said to Matt Thomas said, that hasn't changed since he 742 00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:47.280 left the Astros. 743 00:34:47.400 --> 00:34:49.480 Right, it's the same number. First win there, I think, 744 00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:52.719 and Devor's homeward twice. Yeah, and they they got the 745 00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:55.360 win and Verlander got it. He's pushing two seventy now 746 00:34:55.440 --> 00:34:57.000 is then he was in there's the above two seventy? 747 00:34:57.039 --> 00:34:58.119 Is he sixty eight or two? 748 00:34:58.840 --> 00:35:01.440 It was like, he's yeah, somewhere in there, but he 749 00:35:01.559 --> 00:35:04.199 washing eight this season as a San Francisco Giant, So 750 00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:07.880 he gets his first win. He's not one in eight, eary, four, seventy. 751 00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:09.000 It's not not terrible. 752 00:35:09.079 --> 00:35:12.800 And for a team that's battling for a playoff spot, Yeah, 753 00:35:12.960 --> 00:35:13.639 which is odd. 754 00:35:14.119 --> 00:35:16.039 Do you think he's going to get to three hundred, Gordy, 755 00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:19.320 I don't know, man. He's forty three and that's. 756 00:35:19.239 --> 00:35:22.280 A lot of wins still to go. Okay, so he's 757 00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:25.199 in his two So he would have to average ten 758 00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:28.719 wins a year for the next three years. Yeah, that's 759 00:35:28.760 --> 00:35:30.400 to get it. That's good. It's going to be tough sledding. 760 00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:30.599 Man. 761 00:35:31.320 --> 00:35:32.880 He could now as a Hall of Famer, we know that. 762 00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:35.559 But to get to that that elusive three And I'm 763 00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:39.400 telling you right now, Gordy, there nobody right now since 764 00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:42.440 you've been alive that started pitching, since you came out 765 00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:45.159 of the womb, and right now the rest of your life, 766 00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:49.559 no matter if they started five years ago. Okay, who 767 00:35:49.639 --> 00:35:51.480 do you who's the best young pitcher in baseball? He 768 00:35:51.519 --> 00:35:53.559 may be the best pitching. It's Paul Skins, right Yeah, 769 00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:57.159 look at his record right now, considering no run support, 770 00:35:58.039 --> 00:36:00.679 he's not getting to three hundred wins. I want you 771 00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:05.239 to think he'd what's that fifteen wins? Uh? Fifteen wins? 772 00:36:05.360 --> 00:36:09.880 What twenty years. So what's twenty times fifteen, Gordy? Do 773 00:36:09.960 --> 00:36:12.239 the math? Isn't that twenty forty? That's three hundred, right? 774 00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:15.559 I the twenty forty sixty eight hundred, that's three hundred 775 00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:21.400 twenty wins fifteen years, you guy, or fifteen wins for 776 00:36:21.519 --> 00:36:24.480 twenty years. But twenty times fifteen if I now mistake 777 00:36:24.599 --> 00:36:27.480 is three hundred. If I lost my mind, you're correct. Okay, 778 00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:28.920 I was pretty good. 779 00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:30.239 With that calculator on my fight. 780 00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:32.159 I want that to be in millions for the money 781 00:36:32.159 --> 00:36:35.320 we're earning. Right, So three hundred wins as good as 782 00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:37.679 he is, and it also has you're a product of 783 00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:39.960 the team you're on. He ain't winning three hundred games 784 00:36:39.960 --> 00:36:41.760 in Pittsburgh if they're gonna score like that for him. 785 00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:45.599 So you think about it. We're never having you know, C. C. 786 00:36:45.719 --> 00:36:48.800 Sabathia got closed. We're never having a three hundred game win. Now, 787 00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:51.559 never say never in sports, but think about what you 788 00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:55.039 have to do. We don't get two guys winning twenty 789 00:36:55.119 --> 00:36:59.199 games in a season anymore. But we would name Randy 790 00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:02.400 Johnson had three hundred and three wins. He's twenty second 791 00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:05.840 on the all time win forest. Right, So like I 792 00:37:05.920 --> 00:37:06.440 think you're right. 793 00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:09.119 I don't think we're gonna have another guy in our 794 00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:10.960 lifetime that gets to three hundred. 795 00:37:11.239 --> 00:37:14.599 And Gordy with the way we specialize. Now, we don't 796 00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:17.760 let guys you know, four and two thirds five, We 797 00:37:17.840 --> 00:37:20.280 don't let him extend and like, okay, it's tied, you've 798 00:37:20.280 --> 00:37:22.400 got you. You qualify for the win because you've got 799 00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:25.599 your five innings in. But the problem is that you're 800 00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:29.199 it's seven ninety pitches and while you could go another inning, 801 00:37:29.239 --> 00:37:31.239 we're specialized. We've got to get our sixth inning guy 802 00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:32.679 in there, and then you end up losing, so they 803 00:37:32.679 --> 00:37:34.320 don't let you fight back and come back and get 804 00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:36.760 a win. You know, Oh, we're tied in the fifth, 805 00:37:37.000 --> 00:37:39.119 but it's got ninety two pitches, so we're gonna go 806 00:37:39.159 --> 00:37:41.039 to our bullpen, and so somebody else is gonna get 807 00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:43.360 the woe what you mentioned last night when you set 808 00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:45.239 up the win and and a bullpen guy gets the 809 00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:47.199 looks like he's going to get the loss and turns 810 00:37:47.199 --> 00:37:48.719 around and gets the win because you score in the 811 00:37:48.760 --> 00:37:51.559 next inning. So we just does a specialization. It's not happening. 812 00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:56.440 Twenty wins for fifteen years, how many how many times 813 00:37:56.480 --> 00:37:59.480 in the last eight years is Justin Verlander won twenty 814 00:37:59.519 --> 00:38:03.000 games in a saya look that up. Yeah, and you're 815 00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:05.599 what are you gonna find one? Maybe if we're lucky 816 00:38:06.559 --> 00:38:09.719 is sixteen, seventeen, nineteen eight. We don't have five guys 817 00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:11.920 that are winning twenty games. The Baltimore Oroyls in the 818 00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:14.639 seventies had four guys on the same staff in the 819 00:38:14.760 --> 00:38:16.519 same year win twenty plus games. 820 00:38:16.639 --> 00:38:20.199 JV only had two seasons where he won twenty plus 821 00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:23.320 games in his career, twenty four in twenty eleven and 822 00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:25.559 twenty one in nineteen Here with the asters. 823 00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:28.239 Okay, and look at him. He's still struggling to get 824 00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:30.320 and he's in his forties. To get to three hundred, 825 00:38:30.400 --> 00:38:33.519 it's never happening. Man. The new barometer is two two 826 00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:34.639 hundred and ten wins or whatever. 827 00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:37.760 It's crazy to look. I mean like Maddox and Clements 828 00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:42.039 are top top ten. Maddis had three fifty five, Clemens 829 00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:43.079 at three fifty four. 830 00:38:43.360 --> 00:38:45.719 Now, now look how many years they pitched. Yeah at 831 00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:48.639 a time. Also, when you told them in the fifth 832 00:38:48.679 --> 00:38:50.880 inning they're coming out, guess what they do. Yeah, Well, 833 00:38:50.920 --> 00:38:52.599 Maddox would say, go back to the dug out I'm 834 00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:54.840 gonna get it as a tipper. Jones tells the story, 835 00:38:54.960 --> 00:38:56.320 I'm gonna get this guy. I'm gonna throw him a 836 00:38:56.320 --> 00:38:58.440 two oh cutter and he's gonna file. He's gonna hit 837 00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:00.920 it to Chipper on a pop fly and what's hits 838 00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:02.840 it to Chip? Jones tells the story, It's like, you 839 00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:06.280 gotta be can Bobby Cox and and uh Leo Mazzonia 840 00:39:06.320 --> 00:39:08.159 and the Doug. I said, you're you're kidding me that 841 00:39:08.239 --> 00:39:10.119 Maddox still and if you do that, Clemens would have 842 00:39:10.159 --> 00:39:11.960 thrown a fastball at you. Why you came out to 843 00:39:11.960 --> 00:39:14.400 get him out, just like Randy Johnson would have. So 844 00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:17.639 it's changed, but it's not happening. So Verlander all that time, 845 00:39:17.719 --> 00:39:19.840 you're like, we're one hundred games in and he finally 846 00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:21.920 got his win. He ain't getting three hundred unless he 847 00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:23.800 goes on a heater for three years, and that's hard 848 00:39:23.840 --> 00:39:25.039 to do in your early forties. 849 00:39:25.239 --> 00:39:27.800 Tom Glavin, he's twenty first of three oh five, and 850 00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:30.079 like I said, Reddy Johnson, twenty second three oh three, 851 00:39:30.119 --> 00:39:32.440 I just don't I don't think we'll ever have guys 852 00:39:33.039 --> 00:39:34.840 get that man get that many wins. 853 00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:37.719 Great, it's really tough because of the specialization. So what 854 00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:39.360 were you teasing real quick so we can get ready? 855 00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:40.960 What would we talk about about the Ashleys you were 856 00:39:40.960 --> 00:39:41.400 talking about? 857 00:39:41.800 --> 00:39:45.800 Yeah, Teas's three segments, Astro's trade deadline names. 858 00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:48.360 Oh, okay, got you got you some of the ones 859 00:39:48.400 --> 00:39:50.280 we've talked about. But is there a few more thrown 860 00:39:50.320 --> 00:39:50.800 into the fray? 861 00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:52.960 Yeah? Justin Verlin? You wanna put him on list? 862 00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:59.079 No, No, Paul though he bodies. They're pitching pretty good. 863 00:39:59.079 --> 00:40:00.480 Brice mat Ladder or. 864 00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:03.159 Walter, I'll out stick you have Verlader stay there right, Yeah. 865 00:40:03.159 --> 00:40:05.639 Bryce Matthew's gonna help you get some wins. Shay Whitcomb 866 00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:06.880 gonna help you get some more wins. 867 00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:09.239 JV may help you get some players. I'm not sure 868 00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:12.280 about more wins from some other picture, but gonna be interesting. 869 00:40:12.320 --> 00:40:14.719 They're gonna do something. The question Dan Brown told me yesterday, 870 00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:17.119 real quick, Gordy that it was. I said, are you 871 00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:19.679 in the rental business? He said, if we have to be, Yeah, 872 00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:24.559 if it if it's there, you go. Oh, we are 873 00:40:24.599 --> 00:40:27.920 not closing any door, Yeah, which means yes, we're taking 874 00:40:27.960 --> 00:40:29.719 all calls, but I'm not going to give you any 875 00:40:29.760 --> 00:40:32.559 extra inside. But yeah, at least if it's considered, because 876 00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:35.920 you know, renolds sometimes become a problem. But you know what, 877 00:40:35.960 --> 00:40:37.320 if it's going to help you win a World Series, 878 00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:39.360 I guess then you make that move as long as 879 00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:41.360 you don't have to mortgage your youth and your franchise. 880 00:40:41.880 --> 00:40:42.199 All right. 881 00:40:42.239 --> 00:40:43.039 We will get into that. 882 00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:43.480 Uh. 883 00:40:43.920 --> 00:40:47.039 Names to watch for the Astros so the deadline looming. 884 00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:49.440 Will discuss that next hour too at the Seawan Salisbury Show. 885 00:40:49.440 --> 00:40:50.199 Come here win next. 886 00:40:51.519 --> 00:40:55.719 KBMS Houston ADHD two Houston an iHeart radio station, the 887 00:40:55.880 --> 00:41:01.079 Astross the Rockets, Rockets past before your home for your 888 00:41:01.199 --> 00:41:05.000 home teams.

This is July thirty first, 909 00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:32.000 So what is that is that a week from today, 910 00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:35.320 week from today at five pm Central will be the 911 00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:36.079 trade deadline. 912 00:42:36.199 --> 00:42:38.320 So and by the way, Gordon, I mean interrupt, just 913 00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:40.239 to put a closure on at Verlander thing. Do you 914 00:42:40.320 --> 00:42:43.599 realize not just eighth to eight this year, that's sixteen 915 00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:46.880 game losing streak he was on. I met he was 916 00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:49.840 on a sixteen game losing skid before he got the win. 917 00:42:49.960 --> 00:42:51.719 I digress. But yes, some of those names that are 918 00:42:51.719 --> 00:42:53.719 gonna come up, it's what we say. You said, five 919 00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:55.599 o'clock Central next Thursday, a week from today. 920 00:42:55.719 --> 00:42:58.079 Yeah, Well real quick, cy young, do you know how 921 00:42:58.119 --> 00:42:58.960 many wins he had. 922 00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:01.199 Yeah, Like I felt like I was gonna say over 923 00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:03.199 four hundred, So it was over five five hundred eleven. 924 00:43:03.519 --> 00:43:06.000 Guess what record's safe that will never be broken in 925 00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:08.920 the guy like, yeah, what he back to nine innings 926 00:43:08.960 --> 00:43:11.800 at double headers and all that stuff. Craziness, But that's 927 00:43:11.840 --> 00:43:14.519 a rubber arm br and the cal Ripken consecutive starts, 928 00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:18.320 that's definite. In these days of rest and everything, there's 929 00:43:18.400 --> 00:43:20.079 no there's not going to be anybody that gets within 930 00:43:20.199 --> 00:43:22.320 half of that from here on forward. You just won't 931 00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:24.280 allow we need a day of rest. Well, the guy's 932 00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:27.639 hitting four seventy seventy five games in and he's twenty four. 933 00:43:28.400 --> 00:43:29.840 Do you really want it? Does he really need a 934 00:43:29.920 --> 00:43:32.119 day off? Yeah, we got to get him a day's rest. Well, 935 00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:34.559 that ends that streak. I mean, can you imagine how 936 00:43:34.599 --> 00:43:38.920 many times they came to Ripkin like, dude, uh, you 937 00:43:38.960 --> 00:43:41.119 want to take a day off? Don't even talk. At 938 00:43:41.159 --> 00:43:43.840 the point, I'm sure the manager's like, you know what, 939 00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:45.599 don't even address. 940 00:43:45.679 --> 00:43:48.039 Yeah, it starts getting so the numbers, Street's getting so big. 941 00:43:48.119 --> 00:43:49.639 You're like, hell, no, I'm not missiving. 942 00:43:49.679 --> 00:43:50.920 I don't want to be the guy a bench and 943 00:43:50.960 --> 00:43:52.320 you also don't want to be the band I'm the 944 00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:54.960 one who's screwed up the street. No, when they got 945 00:43:54.960 --> 00:43:56.760 to the one when Cal decides he needs a day off, 946 00:43:57.719 --> 00:44:00.239 it'll probably be the last day of his career, which 947 00:44:00.280 --> 00:44:01.239 I love about him. 948 00:44:01.320 --> 00:44:03.920 I remember Drew Brees was on the way to breaking 949 00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:06.079 the consecutive start streak, and then I think it was 950 00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:09.320 that that Super Bowl year they ended up. You know, 951 00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:12.280 they already wrapped up the division, seating was done all that, 952 00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:14.760 and their last regular season game they started bark Burnell 953 00:44:15.480 --> 00:44:17.719 and most fans were like, why not just put Breeze 954 00:44:17.760 --> 00:44:19.480 out there, let him go, hands it off a couple 955 00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:21.920 of times, and then pull them. I get that. I 956 00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:24.360 think some people are like, oh, that ruins the integrity 957 00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:25.119 of the number of this. 958 00:44:25.320 --> 00:44:27.760 Yeah, it makes you look like it's about you and selfish. 959 00:44:27.960 --> 00:44:30.679 But it still was like, nobody will come from this far. 960 00:44:31.039 --> 00:44:33.719 Keep it going, go treat it like preseason. Let him 961 00:44:33.719 --> 00:44:35.119 hand it off six times and get him out of 962 00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:38.760 the game. But anyway, it's just one of the durabilities. 963 00:44:38.800 --> 00:44:40.880 I was in voting like Verlander, and I want to 964 00:44:40.880 --> 00:44:44.840 get to your topic. But if you're voting for me, Gordy, 965 00:44:44.920 --> 00:44:47.000 if I was voting for an MVP or voting for 966 00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:50.119 a Hall of Fame. Durability matters to me. I mean, 967 00:44:50.159 --> 00:44:52.559 you know what I'm saying. As good as Joel embiid is, 968 00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:57.719 forty five games a year doesn't do much for me, right, 969 00:44:57.880 --> 00:45:00.760 But the guy that shows up in every day and 970 00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:03.840 even when he's struggling or going good, he's not begging 971 00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:05.199 for the dead. I know you need him in. The 972 00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:07.559 times have changed, but there's certain things that don't have 973 00:45:07.679 --> 00:45:10.320 to change, and a guy's commitment to I'm getting paid, 974 00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:13.039 I'm gonna show up to work. Yeah, there's certain streaks 975 00:45:13.039 --> 00:45:16.559 you'll never see, and that that consecutive game streaks, you know, 976 00:45:16.599 --> 00:45:19.320 and and far of obviously durable and Peyton man Eli 977 00:45:19.400 --> 00:45:22.280 Manning doesn't get enough credit for his durability. Manning's were 978 00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:25.440 extremely durable during their career. And Justin Verlander has been 979 00:45:25.480 --> 00:45:27.320 one of those guys as well for the most part. 980 00:45:27.400 --> 00:45:29.599 I know he's had arm surgery and the rest of it, 981 00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:32.159 but it's a it's a you can play into your forties, 982 00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:34.760 the Aaron Rodgers of the world, the Warren Moons and 983 00:45:35.079 --> 00:45:38.119 the Brady's. It's pretty fantastic because that's a horror Hey, 984 00:45:38.159 --> 00:45:40.280 people walk across the street and or get a hang 985 00:45:40.360 --> 00:45:42.599 now and miss ten games. Those cats are getting their 986 00:45:42.639 --> 00:45:47.480 brains beat in and still showing up. Yeah, a blister's 987 00:45:47.480 --> 00:45:49.599 not keeping a football playoff fifteen days or could you 988 00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:54.199 imagine going to Connor McDavid and saying, hey, dude, how's 989 00:45:54.239 --> 00:45:56.320 that blister on your on your low hand, left hand, 990 00:45:56.360 --> 00:45:59.360 low on your hockey stick? Well, it's big and it's bleeding. 991 00:45:59.440 --> 00:46:01.199 Well you want to cut out and take three days off? 992 00:46:01.239 --> 00:46:03.519 It's like, uh, I don't think so, I think I'm 993 00:46:03.519 --> 00:46:05.280 gonna mat matter of fact, how about this stick across 994 00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:05.719 your head? 995 00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:09.119 So we just got word. Gregor will not fight in 996 00:46:09.199 --> 00:46:11.199 his next upcoming fight. He has a blister. 997 00:46:11.360 --> 00:46:14.599 Oh yes, yeah, yeah, his uh he's got a little 998 00:46:14.639 --> 00:46:18.159 ssiatic nerve problem that uh, he's kept him awake last night. 999 00:46:18.159 --> 00:46:23.079 He's gonna miss four months. So yeah, but I guess crooked, Yeah, 1000 00:46:23.320 --> 00:46:24.960 that's the favorite. Well, he's got a kink at his deck, 1001 00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:27.840 which means he was out drinking too long. And you 1002 00:46:27.920 --> 00:46:30.039 know one of those that's my favorite. Well, you know what, 1003 00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:33.400 h he cut his he cut his finger because he 1004 00:46:33.519 --> 00:46:35.400 was doing dishes. Get the hell out of here. He 1005 00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:37.760 would put his finger in dishes. The dude was drunk, 1006 00:46:37.840 --> 00:46:39.239 and damn you're severed. 1007 00:46:39.000 --> 00:46:43.199 To thes fought off off a night of drinking. I 1008 00:46:43.320 --> 00:46:44.159 guarantee he has. 1009 00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:47.920 Dude, I played football with guys that drank himself to 1010 00:46:47.960 --> 00:46:49.760 sleep the night before, woke up the next day and 1011 00:46:49.800 --> 00:46:51.480 had a great game. Matter of fact, in the old 1012 00:46:51.519 --> 00:46:54.599 school days, we were we were we were given beer 1013 00:46:55.119 --> 00:46:57.519 in Seattle when I was a rookie, we were given 1014 00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:01.360 the The snack the night before was burgers and fry. 1015 00:47:01.519 --> 00:47:03.079 You know, you'd have the snack the night before on 1016 00:47:03.119 --> 00:47:05.000 a Saturday night, the you're nine o'clock meeting at night. 1017 00:47:07.159 --> 00:47:11.519 Chuck knocks philosophy was simple, basically, if you throw it, 1018 00:47:11.559 --> 00:47:13.400 and this was his quote, if you're gonna throw the 1019 00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:14.960 ball over the fence, make sure you can go get it. 1020 00:47:15.639 --> 00:47:17.519 And we had a tub of beer Heinek. I can 1021 00:47:17.559 --> 00:47:19.480 remember it was Heineken, and it might have been one 1022 00:47:19.480 --> 00:47:22.000 of the local beers or another beer. And you'd walk 1023 00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:25.039 out and I a couple team they would just take 1024 00:47:25.079 --> 00:47:26.880 a six pack go to their room because that would 1025 00:47:26.880 --> 00:47:29.159 help them sleep. Right. Chuck just said, be a pro 1026 00:47:29.800 --> 00:47:31.480 and so you'd get your burger. You'd do it. If 1027 00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:33.320 you wanted to eat during snacks. Some guys would do 1028 00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:35.639 it and take their beer and burger to their room. 1029 00:47:37.119 --> 00:47:40.079 We weren't giving soda if you wanted. So there was 1030 00:47:40.159 --> 00:47:42.559 beer available the night before a game, which meant, don't 1031 00:47:42.559 --> 00:47:45.119 be an idiot and had you're not shown. But I 1032 00:47:45.280 --> 00:47:47.440 know guys that could drink six or eight pack of 1033 00:47:47.519 --> 00:47:50.039 beer or the six pack of beer, you know, and 1034 00:47:50.199 --> 00:47:52.119 it helped them sleep and wake up the next day 1035 00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:53.639 and play their ass off. And as long as you 1036 00:47:53.639 --> 00:47:54.960 did that. Chuck did have problem, but he did have 1037 00:47:55.000 --> 00:47:56.480 the quote, if you're gonna throw the ball over the fence, 1038 00:47:56.519 --> 00:47:58.280 make sure you can go get it. And so times 1039 00:47:58.320 --> 00:48:01.440 have changed, my man. Yeah, change encouraging a heineke in 1040 00:48:01.480 --> 00:48:03.840 the night before so you could relax, as opposed to 1041 00:48:04.239 --> 00:48:06.679 how dare you you drank one beer? Goes to he 1042 00:48:06.840 --> 00:48:08.800 was drunk and passing out and throwing up right, that's 1043 00:48:08.840 --> 00:48:10.760 how people would view it if you didn't play well 1044 00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:11.199 the next day. 1045 00:48:11.239 --> 00:48:13.000 But well, Greg Cook used to tell stories of what 1046 00:48:13.159 --> 00:48:15.159 falling out of a car and then like being at 1047 00:48:15.199 --> 00:48:16.400 practice the next day. 1048 00:48:17.559 --> 00:48:19.239 It's a great time. I remember. 1049 00:48:21.280 --> 00:48:21.679 Players. 1050 00:48:22.039 --> 00:48:25.719 I can remember we were at college in spring practice. 1051 00:48:25.760 --> 00:48:28.599 One year we had a defensive lineman who was the 1052 00:48:28.639 --> 00:48:30.320 hell of player. I'll leave his name out in college 1053 00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:32.599 and we're out on the practice field getting ready to 1054 00:48:32.599 --> 00:48:35.039 doing stretching lines, and he walked by him and he'd say, hi, 1055 00:48:35.360 --> 00:48:38.000 was a great and everybody loved him and a great player. 1056 00:48:38.679 --> 00:48:40.639 But you know, it was one of those spring practice venders. 1057 00:48:40.679 --> 00:48:43.480 He went and had himself a few drinks in the 1058 00:48:43.559 --> 00:48:46.159 sun shining in southern California and he's at his gear 1059 00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:49.119 and it's like, how much booze did you have before 1060 00:48:49.159 --> 00:48:51.280 you got your three point stance? And he performed and 1061 00:48:51.360 --> 00:48:54.239 nobody said anything, but you wouldn't nowadays people were like, 1062 00:48:54.280 --> 00:48:57.039 oh my gosh, what's what's going on with you? Out 1063 00:48:57.039 --> 00:48:59.320 a hand. They didn't cause anybody any trouble. The guy 1064 00:48:59.440 --> 00:49:01.840 just drank before or spring practice because he really didn't 1065 00:49:01.880 --> 00:49:03.480 need to compete for his job because he was like 1066 00:49:03.480 --> 00:49:04.199 an All American. 1067 00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:06.760 So you see Demico getting up there. Yeah, guys, look, 1068 00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:10.519 Joe Mixon is not a practice today. He went not 1069 00:49:10.679 --> 00:49:14.360 drinking last night. Yeah yeah, in a night of foolishness. 1070 00:49:14.440 --> 00:49:16.280 So and even if he did, that would not be 1071 00:49:16.360 --> 00:49:18.519 the reason why that came to He's got the flu, 1072 00:49:18.800 --> 00:49:20.599 so so give me some names, Gordy, what are we 1073 00:49:20.639 --> 00:49:21.039 looking at you? 1074 00:49:21.159 --> 00:49:23.840 So Ryan McMahon is one of the big names. They 1075 00:49:23.880 --> 00:49:26.840 were saying that a Rockies, right, yeah, the Mariners, Yankees 1076 00:49:26.960 --> 00:49:30.199 and Astros could be interested in. Now we brought his 1077 00:49:30.320 --> 00:49:33.320 name up yesterday. He is batting two seventeen on the year, 1078 00:49:33.480 --> 00:49:37.159 I mean batting averages yuck. But he does have the 1079 00:49:37.199 --> 00:49:40.039 sixteen home runs, he does have the thirty five runs 1080 00:49:40.119 --> 00:49:43.000 batted in. And you know, some people have phoned out 1081 00:49:43.039 --> 00:49:45.519 there that okay, the Astros with the need of estac 1082 00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:49.280 paratus being out, you know, and they've they've said right 1083 00:49:49.559 --> 00:49:52.199 that they think it's a serious injury. Now what's serious? 1084 00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:54.880 You know, is it, oh, it's just a really strong 1085 00:49:54.960 --> 00:49:58.360 hamstring strain, or as Ross was saying yesterday, is it 1086 00:49:58.559 --> 00:50:01.280 off the bone, you know, attached that it's gonna be 1087 00:50:01.480 --> 00:50:03.800 take a fault, that's a recovery out. 1088 00:50:03.880 --> 00:50:05.440 If that's the case, then you're not seeing him for 1089 00:50:05.480 --> 00:50:06.159 a long time. Right. 1090 00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:08.280 So that's what we just don't know. But the fact 1091 00:50:08.280 --> 00:50:12.199 they've said serious injury or it's pretty serious, I mean 1092 00:50:12.480 --> 00:50:15.960 they've intimated that this maybe isn't a he misses a 1093 00:50:16.039 --> 00:50:17.639 month and he's back in September thing. 1094 00:50:17.800 --> 00:50:22.360 Yeah, there's a difference between a torn pull and strain. 1095 00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:25.360 Those are three different levels, I assure you, And the 1096 00:50:25.440 --> 00:50:26.880 first one is the one you did the T word, 1097 00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:28.320 the torn that you don't want it because if it 1098 00:50:28.440 --> 00:50:30.559 is off the bone, then those are the type of 1099 00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:31.800 guys you don't see the rest of the year. 1100 00:50:32.400 --> 00:50:34.920 So McMahon's out there, what are you willing to. 1101 00:50:34.920 --> 00:50:37.159 Give up for him? Gordy? Okay, let's say to what 1102 00:50:37.599 --> 00:50:38.480 are you willing to give up? 1103 00:50:38.480 --> 00:50:40.400 Well, let me give you the hemline. The Maritters and 1104 00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:44.920 Yankees are heavy interest. So if they're showing heavy interest, 1105 00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:47.400 they're not going to take a call from the Astros 1106 00:50:47.440 --> 00:50:49.159 to go, We'll give you chant McCormick, get a bag 1107 00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:51.360 of chips, like they're gonna want a haul. 1108 00:50:51.519 --> 00:50:53.679 They're gonna want the case of chips, right, not just 1109 00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:54.039 a bag. 1110 00:50:54.239 --> 00:50:56.199 And this is where I get into like, your top 1111 00:50:56.280 --> 00:51:01.039 prospects are here, they're playing, right, Matthews is here, like 1112 00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:04.280 so like that's the players that they would be asking for, 1113 00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:06.159 and it's like, you're not gonna give those guys up. 1114 00:51:06.360 --> 00:51:08.760 So that's where I just wonder how how much of 1115 00:51:08.840 --> 00:51:10.800 a player will the Astros be? Another one I saw 1116 00:51:10.840 --> 00:51:13.880 out there Padre is looking to move Dylan Ceese for 1117 00:51:14.119 --> 00:51:18.039 multiple major league baseball players. So you could have Dylan Ceasee, 1118 00:51:18.320 --> 00:51:21.039 but you're giving up multiple big league players for him. 1119 00:51:21.199 --> 00:51:23.199 I wanted to cease remember when all the talk was 1120 00:51:23.239 --> 00:51:25.320 when he was in the White Sox and he was available, 1121 00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:28.760 and before I wanted I would have loved the Dylan 1122 00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:31.800 Ceese when there was even Shadowell do you jump in 1123 00:51:31.880 --> 00:51:34.000 on him? And what's gonna cost and the rest, and 1124 00:51:34.079 --> 00:51:36.559 then obviously ends up there. I'd love to have him. 1125 00:51:36.920 --> 00:51:39.480 But if you're the Padres, that guy's got cy young stuff, 1126 00:51:39.519 --> 00:51:41.679 and on a team like this, that's one of those 1127 00:51:41.719 --> 00:51:43.679 you think, well, he's gonna rear his head because that's 1128 00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:46.480 what they do when they come to Houston. I'd be 1129 00:51:46.559 --> 00:51:48.639 willing to give up. But the problem is, like you said, 1130 00:51:48.760 --> 00:51:50.159 it's not gonna be one, it's not gonna be two. 1131 00:51:51.039 --> 00:51:53.239 It's a haul. And because he's in the prime of 1132 00:51:53.280 --> 00:51:55.599 his career, it's not like he's thirty seven and winding down. 1133 00:51:55.679 --> 00:51:58.559 Dylan Ceese is still he's got a lot of great 1134 00:51:58.639 --> 00:52:00.920 pitching left in him. So if you're the Padres and 1135 00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:03.679 you're moving him, you're taking on money. But you're also 1136 00:52:03.719 --> 00:52:05.400 taking on a good way, and but you're gonna have 1137 00:52:05.480 --> 00:52:06.840 to give quite a bit up to get him, And 1138 00:52:06.920 --> 00:52:09.639 you're exactly what are you willing to And normally it's 1139 00:52:09.679 --> 00:52:11.760 going to be a bunch of young studs and a 1140 00:52:11.800 --> 00:52:13.480 couple players, right, And he is a rental. 1141 00:52:14.000 --> 00:52:16.960 He's on a one year, thirteen point seven million dollar deal. 1142 00:52:17.800 --> 00:52:21.159 But again that you read this report, it says the 1143 00:52:21.239 --> 00:52:24.519 Padres sit in the third walk cart spot. They are 1144 00:52:24.599 --> 00:52:28.119 certainly buyers in front of the trade deadline. It might 1145 00:52:28.199 --> 00:52:30.840 surprise some onlookers to hear that the Padres are dangling 1146 00:52:30.920 --> 00:52:34.519 Dylan Cease. He finished fourth n l SI voting last year. 1147 00:52:35.079 --> 00:52:37.239 But the talent is there and he's still only twenty 1148 00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:40.800 nine years old. But their mindset is they are looking 1149 00:52:40.920 --> 00:52:45.760 for multiple useful MLB pieces in return for him. 1150 00:52:46.760 --> 00:52:48.679 Yeah, and I'm trying to think on this team, well, 1151 00:52:49.079 --> 00:52:53.480 some of their multiple players are injured, so that may 1152 00:52:53.559 --> 00:52:57.679 not be part of it. Yeah. Yeah, And I'm assuming 1153 00:52:57.760 --> 00:53:01.159 that means guys like Bryce Matthews we're here playing. Are 1154 00:53:01.199 --> 00:53:02.559 you willing to part with them to get a cy 1155 00:53:02.639 --> 00:53:03.320 young type guy? 1156 00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:04.280 Uh? 1157 00:53:05.880 --> 00:53:09.239 And that's that's my biggest problem. 1158 00:53:09.320 --> 00:53:11.480 You could hit free agency and you have fromber walk 1159 00:53:11.519 --> 00:53:13.159 out the door and see swalk out the door. 1160 00:53:13.159 --> 00:53:15.199 And if we're giving up four or five players for him, 1161 00:53:15.360 --> 00:53:18.599 I agreed, that's a tough one unless you could you 1162 00:53:18.760 --> 00:53:20.599 knew that he say, yeah, I'm up for a good extension. 1163 00:53:20.599 --> 00:53:22.280 You extended, but you know what that extension is going. 1164 00:53:22.199 --> 00:53:22.360 To be. 1165 00:53:24.639 --> 00:53:27.079 A lot more than oh yeah, that's exactly. 1166 00:53:26.880 --> 00:53:28.679 Right, something that would make you go, why didn't we 1167 00:53:28.760 --> 00:53:30.159 just give that the front that's right? 1168 00:53:30.440 --> 00:53:32.239 And then so and then you end up losing too 1169 00:53:32.280 --> 00:53:34.719 and giving up a lot of prospects or and or 1170 00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:37.199 players that are impacting your team. It's that they're in 1171 00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:41.480 a unique situation because teams like this, meaning the Astros 1172 00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:43.840 aren't supposed to be eighteen games over five hundred with 1173 00:53:43.880 --> 00:53:46.880 all these injuries. They're supposed to be in a cell mode. Right. Yeah, 1174 00:53:47.119 --> 00:53:48.920 quite the opposite though, because most teams that have that 1175 00:53:49.000 --> 00:53:51.159 kind of injuries, you're like, Okay, we'll see you next year. 1176 00:53:51.239 --> 00:53:52.760 Let's go get some players and get rid of some 1177 00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:55.719 of this salary. Not the Astros. All these injuries and 1178 00:53:55.800 --> 00:53:59.000 they're still tied for the best record in the American 1179 00:53:59.079 --> 00:54:02.960 League and eighteen games over over five hundred, So they 1180 00:54:03.039 --> 00:54:06.280 are they are the anomaly, this is this is the aberration, 1181 00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:09.199 This isn't the this isn't the norm. What the Astros 1182 00:54:09.239 --> 00:54:09.559 are doing? 1183 00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:12.199 What more, keep an eye on Charlie Morton's name has 1184 00:54:12.239 --> 00:54:13.320 been floated out there. 1185 00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:15.679 At the Boy Boy Dan Matthews has been talking about 1186 00:54:15.719 --> 00:54:16.239 him for a month. 1187 00:54:16.400 --> 00:54:19.400 He's a Baltimore oriole and it's not going great there. 1188 00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:22.039 He's signed a one year, fifteen million dollar deal with them, 1189 00:54:22.119 --> 00:54:25.119 but he's five and eight record wise, and wins aren't everything. 1190 00:54:25.239 --> 00:54:28.039 But a five fifty eighty RAS last time out against 1191 00:54:28.079 --> 00:54:31.320 Tampa he gave up seven earned at five and a 1192 00:54:31.400 --> 00:54:34.960 third inning. Now prior to that, his his ten starts 1193 00:54:35.000 --> 00:54:38.159 prior to that, we're all pretty damn strong. So overall 1194 00:54:38.239 --> 00:54:40.960 he's been pretty good this year. But again it's just 1195 00:54:41.119 --> 00:54:43.199 it's a little I mean, a guy in the ra 1196 00:54:43.440 --> 00:54:45.159 close to six. What are you giving up for that? 1197 00:54:45.400 --> 00:54:48.079 Right? Well, that's the difference is if you're going after 1198 00:54:48.159 --> 00:54:50.039 I got, it's probably not going to cost you as 1199 00:54:50.119 --> 00:54:53.039 much as obviously a Dylan Cees and it's going to 1200 00:54:53.079 --> 00:54:54.960 be forty two. Yeah, this year, I was going to say, 1201 00:54:55.000 --> 00:54:56.760 how much more time is Charlie going to be doing this? 1202 00:54:56.880 --> 00:54:59.599 But what I mean, he just kind of he posts 1203 00:54:59.639 --> 00:55:01.360 all the time. I mean, if you could get him 1204 00:55:01.360 --> 00:55:03.800 for a cheap price, it'd be great, because I'm sure 1205 00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:07.079 he'd pitch well here. But at forty two, I would 1206 00:55:07.119 --> 00:55:10.079 imagine he's not long for many more starts in Major 1207 00:55:10.159 --> 00:55:11.920 League Baseball in the next five years. 1208 00:55:12.039 --> 00:55:13.920 This where if you're Danny, You're looking in the house 1209 00:55:13.960 --> 00:55:16.920 and go, you know what, Brandon Walters giving us a chance, 1210 00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:20.400 Colton Gordon's give us a chance. Maybe just standing pat 1211 00:55:20.440 --> 00:55:22.840 at the trade deadline and keeping our places and getting 1212 00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:25.280 all these other guys healthy is the best. 1213 00:55:25.159 --> 00:55:26.679 Move you can then find in a way, if you 1214 00:55:26.800 --> 00:55:28.639 want to go in on frombor, you can. If not, 1215 00:55:28.760 --> 00:55:31.079 then you got to start to develop another offseason plan 1216 00:55:31.239 --> 00:55:33.960 for another front line left he probably. 1217 00:55:34.000 --> 00:55:36.239 La guy and Triple A's killing it. I mean, it's 1218 00:55:36.559 --> 00:55:39.559 this the farm's pack. Do you stand pat with the 1219 00:55:39.639 --> 00:55:42.199 farm and keep developing, or do you go pull for 1220 00:55:42.440 --> 00:55:43.960 pull a trigger and get rid of them all for 1221 00:55:44.119 --> 00:55:46.239 nones at the big league level. 1222 00:55:46.280 --> 00:55:47.880 I just the only way you do that is if 1223 00:55:47.880 --> 00:55:50.400 you were guaranteed a championship. Then there is no guarantee. Yeah. 1224 00:55:50.679 --> 00:55:52.960 The more I just think about it and people will yell, oh, 1225 00:55:53.039 --> 00:55:56.000 they're being cheap. Oh there, Oh, you're not being aggressive 1226 00:55:56.039 --> 00:55:58.199 all this. I think the aggressive move is to stand 1227 00:55:58.280 --> 00:56:01.199 pat and stick with which you got, because look at you. 1228 00:56:01.440 --> 00:56:03.800 You're leading the American League right now with what you got. 1229 00:56:03.760 --> 00:56:06.039 And I actually think it takes probably more guts to 1230 00:56:06.159 --> 00:56:08.000 do that right now, Gordy, in this situa, don't you 1231 00:56:08.360 --> 00:56:10.480 thinking that you're still relying. And it also sends a 1232 00:56:10.559 --> 00:56:13.480 level of confidence, and you're telling your team, regardless of 1233 00:56:13.519 --> 00:56:16.360 the injuries, we believe what's going on here and if 1234 00:56:16.400 --> 00:56:18.800 they get healthy. That's like having three or four guys 1235 00:56:18.960 --> 00:56:22.480 you just landed in free agency. Yeah, we will see, 1236 00:56:22.519 --> 00:56:24.440 all right, Well we were should I say trade deadline, 1237 00:56:24.480 --> 00:56:26.199 not even free agency, But that's like, that's like you 1238 00:56:26.320 --> 00:56:29.679 just landed Jordan and and uh Christian Javier in a trade, 1239 00:56:29.760 --> 00:56:31.360 right because you haven't had him for the most part 1240 00:56:31.599 --> 00:56:32.000 all year. 1241 00:56:32.639 --> 00:56:34.480 Dan, it's gonna drop that line on you. Get ready 1242 00:56:34.519 --> 00:56:34.679 for it. 1243 00:56:34.880 --> 00:56:37.400 Yeah, it's coming, Sean. This is like a trade. Yeah, 1244 00:56:38.920 --> 00:56:40.480 there you go. We get the big left handed back. 1245 00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:42.559 We just got one of the best players in baseball. 1246 00:56:42.639 --> 00:56:45.079 We didn't really have to trade for him. He's here, he's. 1247 00:56:44.920 --> 00:56:47.559 Gonna go healthy. Hang in there, Astros fans, We're coming, 1248 00:56:47.960 --> 00:56:50.039 We're coming. All right, let's grab a quick time out. 1249 00:56:50.079 --> 00:56:51.480 We'll come back. We've got plenty more to get into. 1250 00:56:51.480 --> 00:56:53.639 I gotta give you some takeaways from Texans camp. All 1251 00:56:53.679 --> 00:56:56.639 we saw their overreaction to day one of training camp. 1252 00:56:56.960 --> 00:56:58.360 We'll bring that to you coming up next. 1253 00:57:01.400 --> 00:57:03.800 Sean Salisbury continues on seven ninety. 1254 00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:09.760 All right, Sean, what are you hearing out there now? 1255 00:57:10.199 --> 00:57:11.840 The Salisbury stakeout? 1256 00:57:12.280 --> 00:57:16.239 Salisbury's takeout on the Sean Salisbury Show. 1257 00:57:27.519 --> 00:57:30.880 Sean Salisbury Show here on Sports Talk seven ninety is 1258 00:57:30.920 --> 00:57:36.360 the Salisbury Stakeout and Sean. Texans hit the practice field 1259 00:57:36.519 --> 00:57:43.440 yesterday and one of my just immediate observations was they 1260 00:57:43.559 --> 00:57:49.440 better put Nico Collins in bubble wrap because outside of him, 1261 00:57:50.480 --> 00:57:52.360 I don't feel very good about any of these other 1262 00:57:52.440 --> 00:57:58.119 receivers on this roster. Ken one, if not two rookie 1263 00:57:58.239 --> 00:58:03.679 wide receivers, be two guys you heavily rely on this season. 1264 00:58:03.719 --> 00:58:08.199 If you're CJ. Strau, Yeah, they play like Nikua when 1265 00:58:08.199 --> 00:58:10.519 he came out of what BYU with the rams? Was 1266 00:58:10.559 --> 00:58:11.039 it BYU? 1267 00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:11.360 The y? 1268 00:58:12.679 --> 00:58:14.679 Yeah? If you can, if I can get that from them, 1269 00:58:14.800 --> 00:58:18.400 sure of course, and maybe you will. But I never 1270 00:58:18.559 --> 00:58:24.000 want me to hang my hat on rookies being that guy. Now, 1271 00:58:24.320 --> 00:58:26.840 there's always that hope part, and you draft them for 1272 00:58:26.880 --> 00:58:28.599 potential and hope that they can, but they're going to 1273 00:58:28.639 --> 00:58:30.519 be forced in to happen to play and do something now. 1274 00:58:31.239 --> 00:58:33.440 And so in truth, Gordy, if I said to you 1275 00:58:33.599 --> 00:58:36.599 going in before you went to practice, what's the perceived 1276 00:58:36.639 --> 00:58:38.519 weakness on this team, and it's not even perceived going 1277 00:58:38.599 --> 00:58:41.480 into this season, is how's the offensive line going to play? Right? 1278 00:58:41.519 --> 00:58:45.000 How are they gonna lose in Tunsil? They obviously self 1279 00:58:45.079 --> 00:58:47.719 inflicted pre snap penalties, all the crap that went on. 1280 00:58:48.760 --> 00:58:50.760 And yet you got five guys And I've always said, 1281 00:58:51.000 --> 00:58:52.920 if I had a Hall of Famer and four average 1282 00:58:53.159 --> 00:58:56.679 other average offensive lineman or no Hall of Famer and 1283 00:58:56.840 --> 00:59:00.159 five solid players that are there, give me that group 1284 00:59:00.239 --> 00:59:03.280 over the guys with one star and four hacks if 1285 00:59:03.320 --> 00:59:06.639 that was the case. Right, Well, so you're hoping you've 1286 00:59:06.719 --> 00:59:08.320 upgraded the position and they say they want to be 1287 00:59:08.400 --> 00:59:09.880 nastier and do all that, and let's hope. But that 1288 00:59:10.159 --> 00:59:13.280 was going in the perceived weakness and probably still is 1289 00:59:13.400 --> 00:59:16.480 until they prove who they are. But the sneaky weakness 1290 00:59:16.519 --> 00:59:18.199 and you make a great point and you're out there 1291 00:59:18.239 --> 00:59:20.639 seeing it. So I'm anxious to see what moved you 1292 00:59:20.760 --> 00:59:22.280 and why you think that, other than the fact that 1293 00:59:22.320 --> 00:59:27.079 they're rookies, is they are one injury away from you 1294 00:59:27.360 --> 00:59:30.079 from that position possibly becoming a weakness. 1295 00:59:30.119 --> 00:59:30.239 Now. 1296 00:59:30.239 --> 00:59:32.639 I know, we think, well, you've got great running game, 1297 00:59:32.719 --> 00:59:36.599 and with Mixing and Chubb, you've got a quarterback that 1298 00:59:36.679 --> 00:59:39.480 should elevate the other receivers and make them better. But 1299 00:59:39.599 --> 00:59:42.280 it still comes down to you still got to have 1300 00:59:42.400 --> 00:59:44.440 guys that know how to get open and beat coverage. 1301 00:59:44.440 --> 00:59:46.280 And as a rookie, you're still learning how to get 1302 00:59:46.280 --> 00:59:48.719 out of the huddle, let alone what the coverage is, 1303 00:59:48.760 --> 00:59:50.280 and how to beat man and zone and get off 1304 00:59:50.320 --> 00:59:54.239 the press coverage all those things. So I'm hoping that's 1305 00:59:54.280 --> 00:59:56.360 a little more hope there because you're exactly right, well, 1306 00:59:56.400 --> 00:59:59.000 that star is a wide receiver. Can Christian Kirk and 1307 00:59:59.079 --> 01:00:01.760 these rookies elevate that is a position to watch and 1308 01:00:01.920 --> 01:00:04.920 hope to the good Lord that you don't have an 1309 01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:06.960 injury a high ankle sprain to a guy like Nico 1310 01:00:07.039 --> 01:00:09.159 Collins for a mo up. So I'm curious of what 1311 01:00:09.320 --> 01:00:12.920 you saw there. They made you think you know what, 1312 01:00:13.880 --> 01:00:15.159 it validates your concern. 1313 01:00:15.480 --> 01:00:17.960 Well, it just when you see Nico Collins in action. 1314 01:00:18.360 --> 01:00:20.880 I mean, he is a he is a bona fide 1315 01:00:20.920 --> 01:00:23.039 top ten receiver in this league now, and it's it's 1316 01:00:23.119 --> 01:00:26.039 incredible that that happened, because if you just said that 1317 01:00:26.119 --> 01:00:27.480 his first year or two in the league, and I'll 1318 01:00:27.519 --> 01:00:30.760 be like, you're nuts. But he is emerged and he 1319 01:00:30.840 --> 01:00:32.960 has developed, and I mean you may even make a 1320 01:00:33.000 --> 01:00:34.639 case our top five receiver in the league. 1321 01:00:34.719 --> 01:00:38.360 Nico Collins. He's that good and he's a physical beast too. 1322 01:00:38.679 --> 01:00:41.639 But Tank Dell ain't coming out of street close this year. 1323 01:00:41.880 --> 01:00:43.840 I mean he ain't. He ain't gonna play football. 1324 01:00:43.880 --> 01:00:44.320 Feels like. 1325 01:00:45.960 --> 01:00:51.000 Christian Kirk, nice journeyman, but a little small John Metchi 1326 01:00:51.119 --> 01:00:53.320 will be waiting on that train until the sun comes 1327 01:00:53.440 --> 01:00:56.440 up on. Is this the year that John Metchi emerges It? 1328 01:00:56.519 --> 01:01:00.000 Maybe he does, maybe the it clicks. But Xavier Hudge, 1329 01:01:00.400 --> 01:01:02.480 I think is no more than a three or four 1330 01:01:02.599 --> 01:01:05.679 at best in this league. So you really start to 1331 01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:09.159 look at and it starts with Jayden Higgins six four, 1332 01:01:09.480 --> 01:01:13.679 two twenty out of Iowa State. It got the deal 1333 01:01:13.760 --> 01:01:15.480 done with him your second round pick. I just look 1334 01:01:15.480 --> 01:01:17.920 at Jaden Higgins. Oh God, they're putting a lot of 1335 01:01:17.960 --> 01:01:21.320 eggs in the basket of Jayden Higgins emerging as a 1336 01:01:22.400 --> 01:01:23.920 true stud rookie. 1337 01:01:23.679 --> 01:01:25.440 And putting a lot of pressure on the quarterback to 1338 01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:28.760 make sure that they get involved regularly. And that can 1339 01:01:28.880 --> 01:01:32.559 happen if but it's you know, run game's gonna uh 1340 01:01:33.480 --> 01:01:35.519 enhance that or not, but on this team, it should 1341 01:01:35.599 --> 01:01:38.280 enhance it. So I go back to the offseason and say, 1342 01:01:38.360 --> 01:01:40.559 did they do enough for you? Would you have liked 1343 01:01:40.599 --> 01:01:42.039 them to go get a guy like Cooper Cup when 1344 01:01:42.039 --> 01:01:42.679 he was available. 1345 01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:45.400 Well, I just look at the We're watching Sports Center 1346 01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:47.800 here and they're showing Stefan Diggs at Patriots camp, and 1347 01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:52.079 I'm going, why the hell did they make that trade 1348 01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:54.639 for him and then rework the deal to take years 1349 01:01:54.679 --> 01:01:57.000 off the deal he was if you'd have just traded 1350 01:01:57.039 --> 01:01:59.679 for him and inherited that contract. And I get it, 1351 01:01:59.719 --> 01:02:02.639 there was a much guaranteed money and he wanted guaranteed 1352 01:02:02.679 --> 01:02:05.760 money and all that, but like also say, d you're 1353 01:02:05.840 --> 01:02:08.400 under contract, you're coming back next year. The fact they 1354 01:02:08.480 --> 01:02:10.840 reworked it to a one year deal, and he gets hurt. 1355 01:02:11.400 --> 01:02:13.039 You had Stefan Digster half a year. 1356 01:02:13.000 --> 01:02:15.079 And especially since you didn't sign him as a free age, 1357 01:02:15.159 --> 01:02:17.199 didn't you traded for him? Yeah, you gave up a 1358 01:02:17.239 --> 01:02:21.599 first rounder, right, you traded for him. So what obligation 1359 01:02:21.719 --> 01:02:24.400 do I have to Well, i'm going to trade for you. 1360 01:02:24.519 --> 01:02:26.239 You're coming here, or you just sit out and you're 1361 01:02:26.280 --> 01:02:30.000 not gonna get paid. But you're coming here. Why would 1362 01:02:30.000 --> 01:02:35.400 I take away years on his contract only to because 1363 01:02:35.400 --> 01:02:36.840 if he had a great year, he was going to 1364 01:02:36.920 --> 01:02:39.079 cost you more if he had an average year. But 1365 01:02:39.159 --> 01:02:40.719 you said, well, there's potential if he gets hurt. At 1366 01:02:40.800 --> 01:02:42.159 least he's und a contract. We don't have to worry 1367 01:02:42.199 --> 01:02:44.960 about it in the off season. Every advantage you did 1368 01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:47.880 when you traded him you gave to him. Yeah, you 1369 01:02:48.239 --> 01:02:51.199 gave him every ounce of leverage to get out because. 1370 01:02:51.039 --> 01:02:52.639 It would give a path sets to get him. 1371 01:02:52.719 --> 01:02:55.119 It would sure be nice. And you know Drake May's 1372 01:02:55.199 --> 01:02:57.320 counting on him in New England, right, it would be 1373 01:02:57.360 --> 01:02:59.920 sure nice to say, oh, he's healthy and ready to 1374 01:03:00.079 --> 01:03:02.480 practice and he's under contract. Then you didn't have to 1375 01:03:02.519 --> 01:03:04.639 pay him anymore. That was one of the odd things. 1376 01:03:04.960 --> 01:03:06.360 What was he not going to show up if you 1377 01:03:06.360 --> 01:03:08.719 didn't rip up his contract and give him one year, Well, 1378 01:03:08.760 --> 01:03:11.519 then he doesn't get paid. He was under contract and 1379 01:03:11.599 --> 01:03:14.039 you gave him an easy out and then with the injury, 1380 01:03:14.199 --> 01:03:16.199 so basically you got him what for half season and 1381 01:03:16.280 --> 01:03:17.679 a first round pick is what it costs you? 1382 01:03:17.840 --> 01:03:20.639 Right, well, second round, second round. But they did that 1383 01:03:20.760 --> 01:03:22.280 weird thing where they had the first round and they 1384 01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:24.440 traded back. Oh okay, gotcha, I think got the second 1385 01:03:24.639 --> 01:03:27.039 right whatever, But it was the top. 1386 01:03:27.039 --> 01:03:29.039 It was you know, you're talking about a top forty 1387 01:03:29.079 --> 01:03:31.239 player in college, right type of thing that the least 1388 01:03:31.320 --> 01:03:34.920 that's going in you gave up a significant pick for him, 1389 01:03:35.000 --> 01:03:35.440 is the point. 1390 01:03:35.599 --> 01:03:38.039 Yeah, and they chose this is from me and Rappaport 1391 01:03:38.079 --> 01:03:42.760 reported the Texans restructured Digs his four year contract extension 1392 01:03:42.800 --> 01:03:45.880 from the Bills in twenty twenty two, with had two 1393 01:03:46.039 --> 01:03:49.320 years remaining. They restructured that into a one year, twenty 1394 01:03:49.360 --> 01:03:50.199 two million dollar game. 1395 01:03:50.239 --> 01:03:52.480 And that maybe is salary cap stuff, because you know 1396 01:03:52.599 --> 01:03:54.480 redo it's like you'll ask a player, hey, can we 1397 01:03:54.559 --> 01:03:56.679 redo your deal. We're not asking you to take money away. 1398 01:03:56.920 --> 01:03:58.960 We'll actually give you more upfront if we can redo 1399 01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:01.320 the deal in the cap. Whatever. The reason, he was 1400 01:04:01.400 --> 01:04:03.760 under contract and guess where he'd be right now, had 1401 01:04:03.800 --> 01:04:06.440 you not done that he'd rehabbed, he'd be here, he'd 1402 01:04:06.480 --> 01:04:08.920 be coming back for year two, and you'd have two 1403 01:04:09.000 --> 01:04:10.159 number ones on your staff. 1404 01:04:11.719 --> 01:04:13.880 I just wanted Digs for two years. This could have 1405 01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:14.599 been a second year. 1406 01:04:14.880 --> 01:04:15.039 Now. 1407 01:04:15.199 --> 01:04:17.719 He did sign a three year, sixty three million dollar 1408 01:04:17.800 --> 01:04:20.159 deal in this saf season with the Patriots. A little 1409 01:04:20.159 --> 01:04:22.760 bit of a gamble for a guy who's not a 1410 01:04:22.800 --> 01:04:25.199 spring chicken. He's thirty one years older, turned thirty two 1411 01:04:25.280 --> 01:04:27.960 later this year. But I still would have loved to 1412 01:04:28.039 --> 01:04:30.679 have the If I'm CJ. Stroud and Tamika Ryan's I 1413 01:04:30.719 --> 01:04:33.239 would have loved to have the luxury to know I've 1414 01:04:33.320 --> 01:04:36.320 got a stud right there next to Nico Collins. I 1415 01:04:36.360 --> 01:04:37.480 don't have to worry about And. 1416 01:04:37.559 --> 01:04:43.280 Guess what for Diggs, who's going farther this year to 1417 01:04:43.400 --> 01:04:46.800 say it's a better team. So but I understand the money, 1418 01:04:46.840 --> 01:04:49.320 but boy did you cater to him? And it was 1419 01:04:49.360 --> 01:04:52.039 a costly one. And you're hoping now now you're more 1420 01:04:52.079 --> 01:04:53.920 on the hope than the production. And he was actually 1421 01:04:53.920 --> 01:04:55.920 having a good year. Yeah, he was playing pretty good 1422 01:04:55.920 --> 01:04:56.360 for Yeah. 1423 01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:59.360 No, he was great. Yeah, and no off field issues 1424 01:04:59.480 --> 01:05:00.480 or anything any. 1425 01:05:00.280 --> 01:05:03.559 Name the team captain. Yeah, there's awesome. Yeah, it's a bummer. 1426 01:05:03.800 --> 01:05:05.800 It's a bummer. Now you're counting on a couple of 1427 01:05:05.840 --> 01:05:07.719 rookies to step up and they're going to have to. 1428 01:05:07.880 --> 01:05:11.239 Hey, Matt Campbell, hopefully you developed these receivers. We now 1429 01:05:11.280 --> 01:05:13.880 have three Iowa state wide receivers on this team. 1430 01:05:14.039 --> 01:05:17.079 It's obvious that Nick Cassario likes Matt Campbell players. That's 1431 01:05:17.239 --> 01:05:19.920 that's a damn truth, right the Yeah, well, hopefully they 1432 01:05:19.960 --> 01:05:21.480 emerge when we return. 1433 01:05:21.519 --> 01:05:23.199 I'll give you a few more takeaways what I saw 1434 01:05:23.280 --> 01:05:27.360 out there at Texans camp yesterday. Training camp officially underway football. 1435 01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:30.039 A week from tonight, we will have the Hall of 1436 01:05:30.079 --> 01:05:32.920 Fame game, so it is upon us more Sewn Salisbury show. 1437 01:05:33.000 --> 01:05:35.880 Right after this, I had to live there for the 1438 01:05:36.000 --> 01:05:40.800 Seawan Salisbury Show continued, Ready. 1439 01:05:40.559 --> 01:05:42.119 To go and that sort of thing. But for the 1440 01:05:42.239 --> 01:05:44.360 most part, it sounds like even the guys that are out, 1441 01:05:45.320 --> 01:05:48.559 you know, it's not super serious, like they're they're gonna 1442 01:05:48.840 --> 01:05:52.880 be back pretty soon, and for the most part, pretty 1443 01:05:52.960 --> 01:05:57.679 damn pretty damn healthy. I think was a WEX tweeted out. 1444 01:05:57.719 --> 01:06:00.880 He said, uh, you know, of outing everybody that was 1445 01:06:00.880 --> 01:06:02.960 out there. Christian Harris, the only player on the active 1446 01:06:03.039 --> 01:06:05.239 roster that he didn't see a practice. I mean, it's 1447 01:06:05.880 --> 01:06:08.719 everybody was that Nick Chubb was running out there with 1448 01:06:08.760 --> 01:06:11.760 the running backs full go. He looks in great shape. 1449 01:06:12.519 --> 01:06:15.480 I mean, so we knew Joe Mixon a little banged 1450 01:06:15.519 --> 01:06:17.239 up from the spring. He's you know, he's not out 1451 01:06:17.280 --> 01:06:20.480 there right now. But like, okay, so Nick Chubb is 1452 01:06:20.519 --> 01:06:23.400 your backup, Like pretty damn good backup. 1453 01:06:23.119 --> 01:06:26.440 To have if he's healthy and he is full got 1454 01:06:26.599 --> 01:06:28.639 he looks great. He's this is going to be a 1455 01:06:29.519 --> 01:06:31.760 huge git. He said, well, what do you mean a 1456 01:06:31.840 --> 01:06:33.760 huge get backup running back. I don't look at him 1457 01:06:33.760 --> 01:06:35.159 as a backup running back. I look at him as 1458 01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:39.039 one A and he is a He was going to 1459 01:06:39.119 --> 01:06:41.320 run with attitude after what happened. You know, whenever you 1460 01:06:41.519 --> 01:06:44.159 leave a team and you were injured, and he may 1461 01:06:44.280 --> 01:06:47.239 you know he had he played good football. There there's 1462 01:06:47.280 --> 01:06:49.159 this sense of, well did somebody give up on me? 1463 01:06:49.440 --> 01:06:52.719 And I understand why pe'de running back. You're into your career, 1464 01:06:52.840 --> 01:06:55.599 you're banged up, coming off surgery. But if you walked 1465 01:06:55.639 --> 01:06:57.840 his off season workouts in the time you put in, 1466 01:06:58.360 --> 01:07:04.800 you should we should expect a fully healthy beast in 1467 01:07:04.960 --> 01:07:07.119 Nick Chubb now how much he's going to get each day. 1468 01:07:07.159 --> 01:07:10.079 It's a great bonus aff. I think it's the best 1469 01:07:10.159 --> 01:07:12.320 one to two punch in football at that position. 1470 01:07:12.440 --> 01:07:12.599 I do. 1471 01:07:13.039 --> 01:07:15.079 I don't know anybody that's got a better backup at 1472 01:07:15.159 --> 01:07:17.519 running back than Nick Chubb. There are some good ones, 1473 01:07:17.599 --> 01:07:20.920 but Nick Chubb is a Pro Bowl caliber player. And 1474 01:07:21.480 --> 01:07:23.760 the knees, you know when you've heard a knee or something, Gordy. 1475 01:07:23.880 --> 01:07:26.599 It's much different now than it was. I mean, these 1476 01:07:26.639 --> 01:07:28.400 guys are coming back in seven or eight months and 1477 01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:30.599 killing it when they get back right, nine months ready 1478 01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:32.440 to go. He used to be a twelve to sixteen 1479 01:07:32.519 --> 01:07:35.559 month injury. He's going to be. Chubb's a monster. And 1480 01:07:35.639 --> 01:07:37.320 I think it was his knee, if I'm not mistaken. 1481 01:07:37.400 --> 01:07:40.400 Wasn't it I did any of an ACL But regardless, 1482 01:07:40.480 --> 01:07:43.119 it was a lower body injury. And I'm glad that 1483 01:07:43.199 --> 01:07:45.199 you saw that. So you saw burst with him right 1484 01:07:45.320 --> 01:07:48.079 and running like like he never got hurt, is what 1485 01:07:48.159 --> 01:07:49.920 you're saying. I think he's going to be a good 1486 01:07:49.960 --> 01:07:53.159 get and a great depth and allows Joe Mixon to 1487 01:07:53.360 --> 01:07:56.519 get less work and probably give you the same production 1488 01:07:56.960 --> 01:07:58.440 to where he doesn't have to be beat up. I 1489 01:07:58.480 --> 01:08:01.000 think Joe Mixon should love having Nick Chubb a part 1490 01:08:01.039 --> 01:08:01.599 of this as well. 1491 01:08:02.239 --> 01:08:06.119 The other one that again, it's just it's funny seeing 1492 01:08:06.199 --> 01:08:10.159 Davis Mill still out there heading into year five in 1493 01:08:10.280 --> 01:08:13.360 the NFL, and I mean, he's gonna be chomping at 1494 01:08:13.400 --> 01:08:17.359 the bit to get an opportunity somewhere. He's been ever 1495 01:08:17.399 --> 01:08:19.960 since they took CJ. Stroud writing was on the wall, bro, 1496 01:08:20.119 --> 01:08:21.199 you're the backup. 1497 01:08:20.960 --> 01:08:22.279 Where you know what you're going to be saying in 1498 01:08:22.359 --> 01:08:28.079 twenty thirty five. Man, Davis Mills been lead fourteen years. Man, 1499 01:08:28.600 --> 01:08:31.920 what a career he's having. And you know, and and 1500 01:08:32.479 --> 01:08:34.560 started in the first couple of years. Yeah, he's that guy. 1501 01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:35.960 And I'm sure he wants to be a starter, but 1502 01:08:36.520 --> 01:08:39.600 it's reliable and he's safe, and every team needs a 1503 01:08:39.640 --> 01:08:41.399 guy that you can throw in there with minimal work 1504 01:08:41.479 --> 01:08:43.199 and still trust that he'll at least get it done 1505 01:08:43.199 --> 01:08:43.399 for you. 1506 01:08:43.479 --> 01:08:45.479 And he actually had a nice day yesterday. There's some 1507 01:08:45.680 --> 01:08:49.720 darts Jared Wayne one one of those receivers catching the 1508 01:08:49.760 --> 01:08:52.119 ball down the field. So again, look, you want to 1509 01:08:52.159 --> 01:08:54.760 have a reliable backup. And that's what's funny is I 1510 01:08:54.840 --> 01:08:58.039 think Mills is in our mind gone from this guy 1511 01:08:58.239 --> 01:09:01.279 sucks and the David Cully era and you know, Lovey 1512 01:09:01.359 --> 01:09:04.760 Smith error to Vible backup and yeah, if Stroud were 1513 01:09:04.800 --> 01:09:07.119 to get hurt, you feel pretty good about him coming 1514 01:09:07.159 --> 01:09:08.039 and executing the offense. 1515 01:09:08.119 --> 01:09:09.800 Yeah, you may be limited on some of the things 1516 01:09:09.880 --> 01:09:12.479 you can do offensively because Stroud's so good at throwing them. 1517 01:09:12.479 --> 01:09:15.359 But Davis Mills gives you some game and gives you experience, 1518 01:09:15.399 --> 01:09:17.399 and he's now at the stage of his career. Gordy, 1519 01:09:17.479 --> 01:09:20.600 this is when you start to figure it out for three, 1520 01:09:20.720 --> 01:09:23.880 four five, you know, between years five and seven. I 1521 01:09:23.960 --> 01:09:25.720 know in my career that's when it all. You may 1522 01:09:25.800 --> 01:09:31.119 think you know it, but the understanding mentally what you're 1523 01:09:31.119 --> 01:09:32.840 trying to get done, this is about the time it 1524 01:09:32.960 --> 01:09:35.399 kicks in where like it's a clearer picture. And I 1525 01:09:35.439 --> 01:09:37.880 think it was Steve Young who said said it years ago. 1526 01:09:38.680 --> 01:09:43.119 Just when you figure it out mentally your career physically 1527 01:09:43.159 --> 01:09:45.520 you can't do it anymore now if you're Brady or 1528 01:09:45.560 --> 01:09:47.640 you're allowed to or Steve Young lasted a long time, 1529 01:09:48.000 --> 01:09:49.960 you start to figure it out. The physical stuff now 1530 01:09:50.039 --> 01:09:53.079 becomes a lot simpler because you mentally know what you're doing. 1531 01:09:53.119 --> 01:09:55.239 In modu see coverage, there's only so much they can do. 1532 01:09:55.319 --> 01:09:57.960 There's eleven dudes. When you're young in your career, you're 1533 01:09:58.279 --> 01:10:02.720 borrowing trouble in creating problems, right and now, Davis Smiths, 1534 01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:04.319 this is the time where you just mentally start to 1535 01:10:04.359 --> 01:10:06.520 settle in. You don't need a lot of work physically 1536 01:10:06.560 --> 01:10:08.720 as a backup. Yet you go in there and you 1537 01:10:08.840 --> 01:10:11.319 expect him to play well. And I would expect that 1538 01:10:11.359 --> 01:10:12.840 if he has to start a game or two, that 1539 01:10:12.920 --> 01:10:15.079 you should expect to win because he's at that point 1540 01:10:15.079 --> 01:10:17.000 in his career. And also, if you ever want to 1541 01:10:17.039 --> 01:10:19.640 restart somewhere else where you get a chance, those one 1542 01:10:19.760 --> 01:10:22.800 or two or three go back to Scott Mitchell or 1543 01:10:22.840 --> 01:10:27.159 guys over their career who Gino Smith waiting for the opportunity. 1544 01:10:27.439 --> 01:10:30.119 Who's to say that Davis Mills isn't the next Geno Smith, 1545 01:10:30.159 --> 01:10:32.840 who is a journeyman, gets a chance somewhere else for 1546 01:10:33.000 --> 01:10:35.119 you know what, He's completing seventy percent of his passes 1547 01:10:35.159 --> 01:10:37.680 and starting in Seattle and now gives the Raiders hope 1548 01:10:37.680 --> 01:10:39.920 that they're going to beat some people. So maybe Davis 1549 01:10:40.000 --> 01:10:42.640 Mills that guy. But don't discount it. It is an 1550 01:10:42.680 --> 01:10:47.359 important position because most quarterbacks don't play seventeen weeks. They 1551 01:10:47.439 --> 01:10:48.399 just don't. Well. 1552 01:10:48.439 --> 01:10:50.720 The other part of this that we had all eyes 1553 01:10:50.840 --> 01:10:53.680 on is and again it was the first walk through 1554 01:10:53.960 --> 01:10:58.760 padless day one practice, but the initial offensive line Cam 1555 01:10:58.920 --> 01:11:02.079 Robinson at left high who's been much maligned in his 1556 01:11:02.199 --> 01:11:06.319 time in Jacksonville and was with all that Lake and 1557 01:11:06.439 --> 01:11:10.960 Tomlinson at left guard came over from Seattle, Jared Patterson 1558 01:11:11.079 --> 01:11:15.159 back at center, Titus Howard at right guard, and at 1559 01:11:15.319 --> 01:11:18.840 nursery the rookie out of Minnesota at right tackle, not 1560 01:11:19.920 --> 01:11:22.159 the second round pick from last year, Blake Fisher. So 1561 01:11:22.319 --> 01:11:24.840 that kind of caught some eyes on and Blake Fisher 1562 01:11:24.920 --> 01:11:26.880 was out there, he ran with the second unit, but 1563 01:11:27.439 --> 01:11:30.800 it was just kind of a quick, oh, okay, rookie, 1564 01:11:30.960 --> 01:11:31.960 rookie jumping up there. 1565 01:11:32.159 --> 01:11:35.880 This is happening in a hurry, right, So again. 1566 01:11:35.760 --> 01:11:38.039 Is that the greatest offensive line the Texans have ever 1567 01:11:38.159 --> 01:11:38.680 put out there? 1568 01:11:38.840 --> 01:11:38.880 No? 1569 01:11:39.720 --> 01:11:43.720 But and again this is the first padless day one practice, 1570 01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:45.239 so we'll see what it looks like over the course 1571 01:11:45.239 --> 01:11:47.720 of training camp. But just kind of caught some eyes 1572 01:11:47.800 --> 01:11:50.560 on one, Oh, the rookie at right tackle, and then 1573 01:11:50.600 --> 01:11:53.600 the other side, Oh, are we really going to do Cam. 1574 01:11:53.560 --> 01:11:58.039 Robinson right and if this happens, and first of all, 1575 01:11:58.079 --> 01:12:00.279 they get a head start, because I don't see anybody 1576 01:12:00.359 --> 01:12:03.279 jumping off sides fifteen times at left tackle. Well maybe, 1577 01:12:03.399 --> 01:12:04.319 but I would hope not. 1578 01:12:05.800 --> 01:12:06.039 For me. 1579 01:12:06.920 --> 01:12:09.199 It also says this, if in fact, you are starting 1580 01:12:09.239 --> 01:12:11.439 a rookie at right tackle, if that's the goal, if 1581 01:12:11.479 --> 01:12:12.840 it's not just you know you put him in there. 1582 01:12:12.880 --> 01:12:15.000 To put him in there, he must have done some 1583 01:12:15.119 --> 01:12:17.479 awful good impressing in this offseason. You know what I 1584 01:12:17.560 --> 01:12:20.119 mean is a rick because the only thing you got 1585 01:12:20.159 --> 01:12:22.000 to show is the tape, and he was like, well 1586 01:12:22.039 --> 01:12:23.800 that's college tape, and you walk in here, and if 1587 01:12:23.880 --> 01:12:26.600 you are in position to possibly start, that tells you 1588 01:12:27.039 --> 01:12:28.600 that they feel good about him. And they felt good 1589 01:12:28.640 --> 01:12:29.640 about him this offseason. 1590 01:12:31.279 --> 01:12:33.640 Yeah, and some other guys in the mix. They brought 1591 01:12:33.680 --> 01:12:39.199 in ed Ingram Minnesota, Jake Andrews backup center. They brought 1592 01:12:39.279 --> 01:12:43.680 in Juice Scruggs. Of course still here. I saw my 1593 01:12:43.760 --> 01:12:45.840 els you guy, Austin Deculos back on the roster. I 1594 01:12:45.880 --> 01:12:48.680 didn't realize they brought him back, but they. 1595 01:12:48.680 --> 01:12:50.600 Got some decent depth. You just got to get those 1596 01:12:50.680 --> 01:12:53.399 five guys continuity to where you know you're rolling them 1597 01:12:53.399 --> 01:12:55.359 out there before. You're not mixing and matchup because I 1598 01:12:55.399 --> 01:12:56.600 want to see the same guys who. 1599 01:12:56.520 --> 01:12:59.000 Have to leap on the line. It's just is the 1600 01:12:59.119 --> 01:13:00.840 starting five, right? 1601 01:13:01.079 --> 01:13:02.920 Are starting five starting five worthy? Yes? 1602 01:13:03.239 --> 01:13:06.319 Agreed, that's the question. It's uh, it's like the Astros 1603 01:13:06.359 --> 01:13:08.680 when they had a bunch of four A players. It 1604 01:13:08.800 --> 01:13:10.399 was like you weren't good enough of the big leagues, 1605 01:13:10.439 --> 01:13:12.039 but you were way too good for triple out. 1606 01:13:11.960 --> 01:13:14.159 There, you're kind of stuck between her. You're you're the 1607 01:13:14.239 --> 01:13:16.800 hybrid guy. So we'll go find out. But one thing 1608 01:13:17.239 --> 01:13:21.079 what will serve them well is a group that that 1609 01:13:21.319 --> 01:13:26.920 is mean. I like nasty, mean, offensive lineman on Sundays. Yeah, 1610 01:13:27.000 --> 01:13:29.199 and if you get that at that attitude's right, the 1611 01:13:29.279 --> 01:13:31.760 rest will come down. I can't teach meanness. I mean 1612 01:13:31.800 --> 01:13:35.520 that that attitude of of that being nasty, that's DNA. 1613 01:13:35.640 --> 01:13:36.800 You either got it or you don't. Now, I can 1614 01:13:36.840 --> 01:13:38.800 give you a motivational speech, but those are temporary until 1615 01:13:38.800 --> 01:13:40.199 somebody punches you in the face. So you've got to 1616 01:13:40.199 --> 01:13:42.680 be disciplined enough to be to make sure that nobody 1617 01:13:42.800 --> 01:13:45.000 touches a player on your team, even though that's not reality. 1618 01:13:45.079 --> 01:13:47.359 You have to treat it like that and I good 1619 01:13:47.399 --> 01:13:50.520 offensive lines I've been on. It all started with are 1620 01:13:50.560 --> 01:13:52.399 they nasty? And do they love being around each other? 1621 01:13:52.479 --> 01:13:55.039 And most good offensive lines they're they're kind of beat 1622 01:13:55.079 --> 01:13:56.560 to their own drum and they're in their own world. 1623 01:13:56.640 --> 01:14:00.279 And the Texans need to find that with these guys 1624 01:14:00.319 --> 01:14:02.920 up front. This is that if that isn't a weakness 1625 01:14:02.960 --> 01:14:05.680 this year, the Houston Texans will have a head start 1626 01:14:05.760 --> 01:14:08.439 and will dominate the division if that's not a weakness 1627 01:14:08.479 --> 01:14:09.279 and they stay healthy. 1628 01:14:09.760 --> 01:14:12.960 We'll get back into some Texans conversation next hour when 1629 01:14:12.960 --> 01:14:16.680 we return a former Houston athlete writing a love letter 1630 01:14:16.920 --> 01:14:18.079 to the city.

Yeah. 1667 01:15:58.000 --> 01:16:02.239 It's titled uh A few words from the Heart for Htown. 1668 01:16:02.560 --> 01:16:05.479 From the Player's Tribune, he says, h Town, thank you 1669 01:16:05.600 --> 01:16:09.600 for everything. Goes on to say in this letter, he said, 1670 01:16:09.640 --> 01:16:11.720 I grew up here for real. Some dudes just be 1671 01:16:12.159 --> 01:16:14.079 and I like how they do it the Player's Tribune. 1672 01:16:14.119 --> 01:16:16.760 They put it in his words, they don't clean it up. 1673 01:16:16.840 --> 01:16:19.800 So it's when I'm reading how Jaylen is saying it. 1674 01:16:20.239 --> 01:16:21.960 He said, I mean, I grew up here for real. 1675 01:16:22.119 --> 01:16:24.479 Some dudes just be saying that when they get traded, 1676 01:16:25.640 --> 01:16:27.199 or just be saying that when they get traded. But 1677 01:16:27.279 --> 01:16:29.439 I really came here at nineteen years old, still eating 1678 01:16:29.479 --> 01:16:32.560 skittles before games, and I'm leaving here as a father. 1679 01:16:33.159 --> 01:16:36.079 It's been a time, y'all, he said. When I got here, 1680 01:16:36.079 --> 01:16:40.039 all anybody was talking about rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, doing that 1681 01:16:40.199 --> 01:16:42.159 droopy dog thing looking at the floor. You know what 1682 01:16:42.199 --> 01:16:43.840 I mean, Gee, I don't know. It might take four 1683 01:16:43.920 --> 01:16:45.600 or five years. Man, just take it one day at 1684 01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:49.039 a time, he said, bleep a rebuild. He's proud of 1685 01:16:49.159 --> 01:16:50.920 taking his team. You know, this team got to the 1686 01:16:50.960 --> 01:16:54.840 playoffs last year and achieved so much. Now, he did say, Sean, 1687 01:16:57.000 --> 01:16:59.640 it was interesting. He said, he totally agreed. He put 1688 01:16:59.680 --> 01:17:03.920 himself from the shoes of even of raphel Stone and said, 1689 01:17:04.640 --> 01:17:06.199 if that were me, I would have pulled the trigger 1690 01:17:06.239 --> 01:17:08.199 on this trade too. You got a chance to bring 1691 01:17:08.319 --> 01:17:12.600 Kevin Durant to Houston. I totally get it, you know, 1692 01:17:12.680 --> 01:17:15.000 he said, Maybe this works out for best. He said, 1693 01:17:15.039 --> 01:17:17.359 he's ready to go to Phoenix and grow into his 1694 01:17:17.479 --> 01:17:19.920 own with Devin Booker and hopefully become a big time 1695 01:17:19.960 --> 01:17:23.079 player there. But you don't hear that from guys very often. 1696 01:17:23.079 --> 01:17:25.159 I say, you know what, I get it. I totally 1697 01:17:25.199 --> 01:17:26.720 get it. If I'm in his shoes, I pull the 1698 01:17:26.760 --> 01:17:27.680 trigger on that trade too. 1699 01:17:27.840 --> 01:17:30.039 Well, you're looking at one of the best players of 1700 01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:33.439 all time that you get as good as Jalen Green 1701 01:17:33.479 --> 01:17:36.600 can be offensively, He understands the business side of it, 1702 01:17:36.680 --> 01:17:39.880 and quite frankly, I'm sure at some point in Jalen 1703 01:17:39.920 --> 01:17:46.039 Green's high school life watching Kevin Durant play that he's like, man, 1704 01:17:46.079 --> 01:17:48.399 wouldn't it be cool to play? Be that good? Well, 1705 01:17:49.520 --> 01:17:52.600 and then he's the reason that you are in Phoenix. 1706 01:17:52.920 --> 01:17:54.600 You got two choices when it comes to that God. 1707 01:17:54.680 --> 01:17:57.079 You can be bitter and take it with you, and 1708 01:17:57.279 --> 01:17:59.600 usually the person who's bitter has the grudge, suffers more 1709 01:17:59.640 --> 01:18:01.359 than the peace. You got the grudge or bitter against 1710 01:18:01.439 --> 01:18:06.159 normally because it's eating you up. Listen, you you improved 1711 01:18:06.239 --> 01:18:09.199 every year. You had a rough postseason, but you became 1712 01:18:09.319 --> 01:18:12.239 a player, and Phoenix obviously holds you in high regard 1713 01:18:12.279 --> 01:18:14.920 because you can always say I was traded for Kevin Durant. 1714 01:18:15.279 --> 01:18:18.119 Not a bad gig, right, it's good, But then you 1715 01:18:18.199 --> 01:18:20.680 approach your new job. Hell, Phoenix is a good city. 1716 01:18:21.039 --> 01:18:23.279 They need a little turnaround. They're only three years removed 1717 01:18:23.319 --> 01:18:26.239 from an NBA finals. I think it's been three years 1718 01:18:26.239 --> 01:18:27.720 when they got beat by Giannis and they were up 1719 01:18:27.720 --> 01:18:30.720 two oh. So he's going to a place that's had 1720 01:18:30.800 --> 01:18:33.600 some success. So I like that and Pennant the way 1721 01:18:33.640 --> 01:18:36.600 he did that it was a business decision, and he 1722 01:18:36.760 --> 01:18:39.359 understands it and gets it. What's not the like and 1723 01:18:39.720 --> 01:18:41.119 why wouldn't you root for him to go and be 1724 01:18:41.199 --> 01:18:43.119 successful somewhere else? So I don't have a problem with it. 1725 01:18:43.199 --> 01:18:45.880 But he recognizes greatness. And Kevin Durant still got a 1726 01:18:45.920 --> 01:18:47.399 couple of years of greatness in him. I think you 1727 01:18:47.520 --> 01:18:50.319 spent one four years of Minnesota six five, six or 1728 01:18:50.399 --> 01:18:52.920 five years five I think maybe six, but five for sure, 1729 01:18:53.279 --> 01:18:55.000 ninety to ninety six or ninety five when you. 1730 01:18:55.079 --> 01:18:58.159 Came in, and then when you left you were a 1731 01:18:58.279 --> 01:19:00.600 much mature person out and. 1732 01:19:01.439 --> 01:19:04.319 And not only that, but good teammates that helped you mature. 1733 01:19:04.840 --> 01:19:07.560 A great coach, and I was able to play for 1734 01:19:07.760 --> 01:19:10.239 de j Burns and Danny Green, and it's like, you 1735 01:19:10.319 --> 01:19:12.399 know what, had they said, could you go back there? 1736 01:19:12.680 --> 01:19:14.520 I mean, I grew up in San Diego and finished 1737 01:19:14.520 --> 01:19:16.880 in San Diego. You said, what team do you affiliate 1738 01:19:16.960 --> 01:19:20.199 most with? Sean? For me, I was a Minnesota Viking, 1739 01:19:20.359 --> 01:19:22.640 And that's saying something. The hometown team that I played 1740 01:19:22.640 --> 01:19:24.479 for because I always wanted to finish my career at home. 1741 01:19:25.000 --> 01:19:28.600 I got to. But I'm a Minnesota Viking, and that's 1742 01:19:28.720 --> 01:19:30.439 just the way it is regardless of where you played, 1743 01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:33.079 and I loved it. But yes, you go in one person, 1744 01:19:33.119 --> 01:19:35.680 you come out another. And I like the Jalen Greens 1745 01:19:35.760 --> 01:19:37.520 learned that at a young age because there's a chance 1746 01:19:37.600 --> 01:19:39.000 this may not be the last team he plays for. 1747 01:19:39.199 --> 01:19:40.119 That's just called sports. 1748 01:19:40.279 --> 01:19:42.880 I just love the imagery of he's eating skittles pre 1749 01:19:43.000 --> 01:19:45.680 game at nineteen yeah, and now he's leaving and he's. 1750 01:19:45.520 --> 01:19:48.319 A dad, yeah playing video games because you're like, and 1751 01:19:48.399 --> 01:19:50.199 I'm sure at nineteen percent, I ain't gonna be a 1752 01:19:50.279 --> 01:19:52.239 dad anytime soon. And now you're a dad, and you 1753 01:19:52.359 --> 01:19:55.119 got somebody else to think about. It is a and Gordy, 1754 01:19:55.640 --> 01:19:56.680 you'll face this one day. 1755 01:19:56.760 --> 01:19:57.119 We all do. 1756 01:19:57.279 --> 01:20:00.399 It's like you go to bed a kid and you're like, 1757 01:20:00.439 --> 01:20:01.800 oh man, I'm having time in my life. Then you 1758 01:20:01.840 --> 01:20:03.880 wake up and there's this little one. You're like, oh 1759 01:20:04.720 --> 01:20:08.079 now I got to be a responsible guy. And he's 1760 01:20:08.119 --> 01:20:11.159 still awfully young, but being a parent is the greatest 1761 01:20:11.199 --> 01:20:14.399 life changer and hopefully for the better for everybody, and 1762 01:20:14.840 --> 01:20:16.880 you kind of settle into maturity. Man, it's not a 1763 01:20:16.920 --> 01:20:19.279 bad gig to have. And Jalen Green gets it at 1764 01:20:19.279 --> 01:20:20.760 a young age, and I hope he goes and kills 1765 01:20:20.800 --> 01:20:21.319 it in Phoenix. 1766 01:20:21.359 --> 01:20:23.479 I really do the last thing he said, and this 1767 01:20:23.720 --> 01:20:26.640 is the quote. If I bust y'all asks for thirty 1768 01:20:26.760 --> 01:20:30.399 next season, just remember the good times, to which people 1769 01:20:30.439 --> 01:20:33.159 are like, okay, but is it thirty points on like 1770 01:20:33.520 --> 01:20:36.960 twenty six percent shooting from the field. Because I was 1771 01:20:37.000 --> 01:20:38.640 going to get a dig, little high volume. 1772 01:20:39.239 --> 01:20:41.279 I don't want to raid on his on his love 1773 01:20:41.399 --> 01:20:43.359 parade with him that he's really good as we just 1774 01:20:43.399 --> 01:20:46.039 give him calf of it. I was just about to say, well, 1775 01:20:46.279 --> 01:20:47.800 it's going to be in the regular season, because you 1776 01:20:47.880 --> 01:20:50.000 sure as hell aren't scoring thirty against him in the postseason, 1777 01:20:50.560 --> 01:20:52.239 and that's kind of a deep dig and that's wrong. 1778 01:20:52.560 --> 01:20:57.239 Okay, Well that's most people's responses were when I'm in 1779 01:20:57.319 --> 01:20:59.159 Thompson is defending your Jalen good luck. 1780 01:20:59.039 --> 01:21:01.199 In that thirty. Maybe you're not going to get three 1781 01:21:01.279 --> 01:21:03.800 shots off, let alone score thirty points, So there you go. 1782 01:21:04.000 --> 01:21:05.920 But good on him that he feels that way about 1783 01:21:05.920 --> 01:21:09.680 a city that in truth, yeah, when you're a teenager, 1784 01:21:09.720 --> 01:21:12.880 when you come here, you need some presents from the 1785 01:21:12.920 --> 01:21:15.560 people around you and some help, and they obviously provided 1786 01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:16.880 that form. So good on him and I hope he 1787 01:21:16.880 --> 01:21:18.479 plays well other than when he's playing this team. 1788 01:21:18.479 --> 01:21:21.119 Here one more good piece. He talked about Alpern Shankun. 1789 01:21:21.159 --> 01:21:23.720 He said, and of course my Turkish brother Alpi. When 1790 01:21:23.760 --> 01:21:25.479 we first came in here as kids, I didn't know 1791 01:21:25.520 --> 01:21:27.439 what the hell you'd be saying. Half the time we 1792 01:21:27.560 --> 01:21:30.439 were teaching you how to swear in English, you'd be 1793 01:21:30.520 --> 01:21:32.800 showing me all that Turkish rap, and I just couldn't 1794 01:21:32.840 --> 01:21:35.479 get jiggy with it. I'm sorry, bro, y'all got to 1795 01:21:35.560 --> 01:21:37.520 learn to switch the flow up. That's my guy. 1796 01:21:37.600 --> 01:21:37.760 Though. 1797 01:21:37.800 --> 01:21:39.880 I didn't know Europeans could be so down to earth 1798 01:21:40.000 --> 01:21:41.960 like that. I thought y'all are all bougie. But no, 1799 01:21:42.119 --> 01:21:43.199 Alpi as cool as hell. 1800 01:21:43.319 --> 01:21:45.760 There you go. Now, Alpi may hang thirty on you 1801 01:21:45.880 --> 01:21:48.079 next year. There's a good chance of that All Star 1802 01:21:48.239 --> 01:21:48.640 there you go. 1803 01:21:49.079 --> 01:21:52.039 All right? Yeah, I thought it was good, good stuff there. 1804 01:21:52.039 --> 01:21:53.840 From Jalen Grant the players to being all right. Our 1805 01:21:53.920 --> 01:21:56.119 number three is the Shoann Salisburg Show. Come your way, ab. 1806 01:21:56.239 --> 01:21:59.840 Houston ADHD two Houston, an I hard radio station. 1807 01:22:02.520 --> 01:22:03.439 As a rocket. 1808 01:22:04.680 --> 01:22:07.920 This is Sports Talk seven ninety your home for your 1809 01:22:08.039 --> 01:22:08.760 home teams. 1810 01:22:09.119 --> 01:22:12.680 From the Parsons that mentioned next Studios. 1811 01:22:15.720 --> 01:22:21.760 Saulsby, Okay, let's do this. 1812 01:22:22.359 --> 01:22:24.199 Sewn Salisbury. 1813 01:22:25.279 --> 01:22:29.399 Salisbury, the USC troupe's longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury, Dan Matthew. 1814 01:22:29.039 --> 01:22:33.479 Excuse, this is the Seawan Salisbury show. 1815 01:22:37.279 --> 01:22:40.520 We got Sewn, we got triple Lee, and we got 1816 01:22:40.560 --> 01:22:45.720 a first place Astros team not just in the AL West, 1817 01:22:47.159 --> 01:22:52.359 but in the American League. Or Houston Astros leading the 1818 01:22:52.439 --> 01:22:55.600 American League tied with the Toronto Blue Jayson won last night. 1819 01:22:56.880 --> 01:23:00.680 But best record in the American League. It's sixty and 1820 01:23:00.880 --> 01:23:05.279 forty two. Here on July twenty fourth, did not think 1821 01:23:05.359 --> 01:23:08.800 this was possible, especially with the team that they're putting 1822 01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:12.359 out there right now. But man oh man, it has 1823 01:23:12.439 --> 01:23:15.039 been a lot of fun to watch. And shout out 1824 01:23:15.039 --> 01:23:18.399 to the brew crew. The Milwaukee Brewers take it two 1825 01:23:18.439 --> 01:23:22.239 out of three against Seattle. Remember on Saturday, Sean, we 1826 01:23:22.359 --> 01:23:24.119 were feeling pretty down and out coming out of the 1827 01:23:24.119 --> 01:23:25.680 All Star break and the Asers dropped two in a 1828 01:23:25.800 --> 01:23:30.199 row to Seattle. Well that quickly. The Astros have now 1829 01:23:30.279 --> 01:23:33.479 won four in a row and Seattle has lost three 1830 01:23:33.520 --> 01:23:37.159 out of four, and the Astros are back in control 1831 01:23:37.239 --> 01:23:40.439 of the ALS. It's just it's wild how quickly things 1832 01:23:40.479 --> 01:23:42.039 could change. You got a six game lead on them. 1833 01:23:42.600 --> 01:23:44.880 You were this close. If you lose that Sunday game, 1834 01:23:45.119 --> 01:23:47.119 they were gonna be two games back. You breathing down 1835 01:23:47.159 --> 01:23:47.720 your neck. 1836 01:23:48.039 --> 01:23:50.960 Yeah, Gordy, think about how the narrative has changed in 1837 01:23:51.119 --> 01:23:54.039 ten days both ways. Go into the All Star break 1838 01:23:55.479 --> 01:23:59.359 one in five and it's like, oh my gosh, what's 1839 01:23:59.399 --> 01:24:01.600 going on here? You can't afford to lose to Seattle 1840 01:24:01.680 --> 01:24:03.520 coming out. Then you lose the first two and you're like, 1841 01:24:04.399 --> 01:24:06.199 here we go, when are our players coming back? What's 1842 01:24:06.199 --> 01:24:08.319 going on? Trade deadline? This guy sucks? What are we doing? 1843 01:24:09.000 --> 01:24:11.159 And now you win that last game, then go in 1844 01:24:11.199 --> 01:24:15.520 and sweep a hot Diamondbacks team and take care of 1845 01:24:15.600 --> 01:24:17.960 your business there, and now you get to come home, 1846 01:24:18.640 --> 01:24:21.359 and now the narratives back to oh, not only are 1847 01:24:21.399 --> 01:24:25.319 they good and overachieving, they're getting healthy, but they've got 1848 01:24:25.319 --> 01:24:28.039 the best record in the American League with Toronto in 1849 01:24:28.159 --> 01:24:31.079 ten days. That's three different narratives that have shifted. And 1850 01:24:31.199 --> 01:24:33.720 here you are staring at it. But if you keep 1851 01:24:33.760 --> 01:24:35.560 giving me this narrative of the way they're going, I'm 1852 01:24:35.600 --> 01:24:37.319 all in on this. And you know what, maybe just 1853 01:24:37.399 --> 01:24:40.000 maybe go to your onto something thinking will the best 1854 01:24:40.119 --> 01:24:42.439 move be no move at the at the trade deadline, 1855 01:24:43.359 --> 01:24:46.319 will it be? Yeah? I just know that you don't 1856 01:24:46.359 --> 01:24:49.039 have to mortgage your future by getting somebody that's a 1857 01:24:49.039 --> 01:24:52.399 wow factor. And what's the move? Is it the just 1858 01:24:52.520 --> 01:24:57.000 a guy? Is it significant guy or is it that guy? 1859 01:24:57.600 --> 01:25:00.079 Those levels of trades and which one is it? That 1860 01:25:00.199 --> 01:25:01.960 guy is gonna hurt if you have to give up 1861 01:25:01.960 --> 01:25:04.079 some because you ain't getting that guy for nothing, And 1862 01:25:04.159 --> 01:25:06.359 then that's what you got to decide. That's the crazy part. 1863 01:25:06.520 --> 01:25:08.720 Is as good as the a team like the Dodgers 1864 01:25:08.760 --> 01:25:11.920 are spent a ton, they still have a loaded farm system. 1865 01:25:11.960 --> 01:25:14.359 The Yankees still have a bunch of really good guys 1866 01:25:14.399 --> 01:25:17.039 in their farm system. And yet in the Astros, we've 1867 01:25:17.079 --> 01:25:18.399 been trying to build this thing back. That was the 1868 01:25:18.439 --> 01:25:21.199 whole reason Dana got hired, just because the scout's eye, Hey, 1869 01:25:21.600 --> 01:25:23.760 we need you to build back up this farm system, Dana. 1870 01:25:24.199 --> 01:25:26.039 And then he's not even here two minutes and they're 1871 01:25:26.039 --> 01:25:29.560 trading Drew Gilbert, their top prospect for Justin Verlander. You know, 1872 01:25:29.640 --> 01:25:31.880 it was like, you know, he's look at Jim Crane, 1873 01:25:31.920 --> 01:25:34.279 go Jim, I got to rebuild this system. But Jim's 1874 01:25:34.319 --> 01:25:36.520 going well. But also we're trying to win more World 1875 01:25:36.600 --> 01:25:37.800 Series here, So it's a and. 1876 01:25:37.920 --> 01:25:41.399 You go, here's your parameters financially in years, you're gonna 1877 01:25:41.399 --> 01:25:43.560 have to work on it. Yeah, and that then that 1878 01:25:43.680 --> 01:25:46.159 becomes a Dana Brown situation where he has to find 1879 01:25:46.199 --> 01:25:50.039 a way to cause I'm quite sure that judging just 1880 01:25:50.119 --> 01:25:52.119 from my and gord to you may think different, but 1881 01:25:52.199 --> 01:25:56.279 from my perspective, Jim Crane feels like a guy who 1882 01:25:56.600 --> 01:25:59.199 sets parameters and then turns it over to you and 1883 01:25:59.279 --> 01:26:02.239 empowers you to do your thing. Now, it's like when 1884 01:26:02.239 --> 01:26:05.399 you go to a realtor and how many god, I 1885 01:26:05.439 --> 01:26:06.600 don't know if this happened to you when you bought 1886 01:26:06.600 --> 01:26:08.039 your home. You go to a realtor and say, hey, man, 1887 01:26:09.000 --> 01:26:11.039 even if it's a buddy, here's it's a realtor. Hey, 1888 01:26:11.159 --> 01:26:14.600 my price point is between five and seven fifty. And 1889 01:26:14.720 --> 01:26:16.600 then they come back with ten houses to show you, 1890 01:26:17.199 --> 01:26:19.279 and all of them are one point three or more. 1891 01:26:19.319 --> 01:26:21.680 It's like, well, I thought that maybe you know you 1892 01:26:22.000 --> 01:26:24.000 want to grow into it for eight hundred thousand. Well no, 1893 01:26:24.199 --> 01:26:26.760 I'm not growing into that just yet. Give me the 1894 01:26:27.239 --> 01:26:29.399 five hundred. Well then they come back with a seven 1895 01:26:29.479 --> 01:26:31.479 fifty and I say, well, it's not two dollars and 1896 01:26:31.520 --> 01:26:33.960 fifty cents, it's two hundred and fifty grand. I would 1897 01:26:34.000 --> 01:26:37.920 imagine in a similar yet much bigger fashion that mister 1898 01:26:38.039 --> 01:26:40.359 Crane has said, here's where it goes. That there is 1899 01:26:40.439 --> 01:26:42.640 a parameters where you've got to deal in And that's 1900 01:26:42.680 --> 01:26:45.239 part of the genius of having capologists and having you know, 1901 01:26:45.359 --> 01:26:47.600 the metrics and the analytics part of it. That applies 1902 01:26:47.640 --> 01:26:50.119 to the math of money too, because you're just not 1903 01:26:50.279 --> 01:26:53.079 making deals and say, hey, by the way, we're getting 1904 01:26:53.079 --> 01:26:55.079 bill and cease and it's a rental and it's going 1905 01:26:55.119 --> 01:26:57.119 to cost us thirty million if we want to keep 1906 01:26:57.159 --> 01:26:58.560 him next to you, But hey, let's give up four 1907 01:26:58.600 --> 01:27:00.800 prospects for him and two plays right to get a 1908 01:27:00.840 --> 01:27:04.000 right handed stud I'm sure that taking back that Jim 1909 01:27:04.079 --> 01:27:06.479 Crane would be like, did you just waste my time 1910 01:27:06.520 --> 01:27:09.840 at this door and to the point where here's the parameters. 1911 01:27:09.880 --> 01:27:11.720 Now go operate within him and see what we can do. 1912 01:27:11.840 --> 01:27:14.359 Because I feel like Jim Crane has empowered Dana Brown 1913 01:27:14.399 --> 01:27:15.880 to make some decisions, and Dana has done a good 1914 01:27:15.920 --> 01:27:18.880 job with it and a great great at understanding talent 1915 01:27:18.920 --> 01:27:21.840 and their development. But that's part of the part and 1916 01:27:21.920 --> 01:27:23.600 parcel of the business. He's got a lot that he 1917 01:27:23.680 --> 01:27:26.439 has to deal with with this understanding how not only 1918 01:27:26.520 --> 01:27:28.399 it works for now, what does it do for the 1919 01:27:28.479 --> 01:27:31.159 team now? But are you? Are you crushing a future 1920 01:27:31.199 --> 01:27:33.199 by getting rid of prospects that you're trying to build 1921 01:27:33.239 --> 01:27:35.359 back up. So that's part of the genius of being 1922 01:27:35.399 --> 01:27:37.520 a general manager. And I think that there's an empowerment 1923 01:27:37.560 --> 01:27:40.399 that it feels like Jim Crane gives them and work 1924 01:27:40.439 --> 01:27:42.319 within these parameters and let's make it work and then 1925 01:27:42.359 --> 01:27:44.079 we'll go from there. Because one thing I know about 1926 01:27:44.159 --> 01:27:46.039 Jim Crane that I can't say for every owner. He 1927 01:27:46.159 --> 01:27:47.800 does want to win, Gordy, and when we say, well, 1928 01:27:47.800 --> 01:27:50.800 doesn't every owner, as long as it fits under theirs, 1929 01:27:51.000 --> 01:27:53.439 some want to win. I'm sure Oakland wants to win. 1930 01:27:53.600 --> 01:27:55.399 But guess what the ownership of Oakland's not going to do. 1931 01:27:55.520 --> 01:27:58.439 Or now Sacramento is soon to be Las Vegas, they're 1932 01:27:58.479 --> 01:28:00.600 not going to say, go spend four hundred million dollars. 1933 01:28:00.680 --> 01:28:02.520 You said that very well, I could do even keep truck. 1934 01:28:03.079 --> 01:28:03.920 What's the city they're in? 1935 01:28:04.760 --> 01:28:07.479 So I because if I didn't, my guy Billy Bean 1936 01:28:07.520 --> 01:28:10.079 would say, seanyre, you're not paying attention to our franchise. Well, Billy, 1937 01:28:10.079 --> 01:28:11.680 you guys only spend twenty grand a year, so. 1938 01:28:11.840 --> 01:28:13.199 His headquarters in Sacramento. 1939 01:28:13.279 --> 01:28:16.600 Now they move, I would I would think temporarily. Yeah, 1940 01:28:16.800 --> 01:28:19.279 they probably have something that because even though it's not 1941 01:28:19.399 --> 01:28:21.600 a long trip, and Billy will pop in his suv 1942 01:28:21.720 --> 01:28:24.760 or truck, I'm sure. But I would imagine because he 1943 01:28:24.840 --> 01:28:26.760 wants to be there day to day that that's probably 1944 01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:28.960 the case. You're not going to stay at place you're 1945 01:28:29.000 --> 01:28:31.760 not at anymore, so rental. He may even have already 1946 01:28:31.800 --> 01:28:34.479 started the Las Vegas. So that's a good question. If 1947 01:28:34.520 --> 01:28:37.560 they've already started. Okay, let's let's let our temporary here 1948 01:28:37.600 --> 01:28:39.880 in Vegas. Is that's going to Vegas? It was still 1949 01:28:39.920 --> 01:28:42.760 all mud. Oh they still have any like broken ground. 1950 01:28:42.840 --> 01:28:44.520 Oh yeah, it's going to take a minute. But when 1951 01:28:44.560 --> 01:28:45.920 it goes, it's going to go fast. And it'll be 1952 01:28:45.960 --> 01:28:48.119 a pretty quaint ballpark since it's right down town. So 1953 01:28:48.199 --> 01:28:50.399 it's gonna be cool. But yeah, so I would think 1954 01:28:50.399 --> 01:28:53.600 that Dana Brown understands and does what they got to 1955 01:28:53.640 --> 01:28:55.960 deal with. He didn't make the Kakuchi move last year 1956 01:28:56.039 --> 01:28:59.119 just on a whim, right, he knew the ramifications and. 1957 01:28:59.119 --> 01:29:01.039 What was going to be to be here, to give 1958 01:29:01.159 --> 01:29:03.720 up I mean, you give up multiple minor leaguers, Shake 1959 01:29:03.800 --> 01:29:06.800 bloss and h Joey lo Berfito and. 1960 01:29:06.840 --> 01:29:09.479 Low Berfedo was the hot commodity here when they let 1961 01:29:09.520 --> 01:29:11.279 him go because he that energy, right. 1962 01:29:11.600 --> 01:29:13.680 I just feel like the attitude from Dane has to 1963 01:29:13.760 --> 01:29:16.800 be we we've drafted our ass off. You know, we 1964 01:29:16.920 --> 01:29:20.079 picked Bryce Matthews, we picked these like, we're not going 1965 01:29:20.159 --> 01:29:23.399 to just trade these guys for rentals, Like we're gonna 1966 01:29:23.439 --> 01:29:27.079 stay the course, continue to develop, build these guys. We've 1967 01:29:27.119 --> 01:29:29.600 got Miguel You Lowe and aj blue Ball waiting in 1968 01:29:29.640 --> 01:29:33.680 the wings, like let's just stampat keep this keep developing here. 1969 01:29:33.880 --> 01:29:36.239 I always think this Gordian maybe on a team like 1970 01:29:36.319 --> 01:29:38.680 the Astros, if you're the Dodgers, the Astros, teams that 1971 01:29:38.720 --> 01:29:40.479 are now your Phillies, that in reds, that they are 1972 01:29:40.560 --> 01:29:46.000 used to winning and you can't guarantee it. But coming 1973 01:29:46.079 --> 01:29:48.720 out of it, the Kakuchie thing was really good. Now 1974 01:29:48.760 --> 01:29:52.439 after the fact, did it work, No, because it worked 1975 01:29:52.520 --> 01:29:54.319 during the season, but you didn't get them to the post. 1976 01:29:54.319 --> 01:29:57.960 He isn't even right, So in truth, I thought it 1977 01:29:58.000 --> 01:29:59.239 was a great decision. At the time, but in the 1978 01:29:59.279 --> 01:30:01.359 long run, it's like, we didn't win a World Series. 1979 01:30:01.399 --> 01:30:06.119 To me, rental's work, Gordy when it ends in a championship. 1980 01:30:06.560 --> 01:30:09.039 Other than that, it's not that it was a total failure, 1981 01:30:09.399 --> 01:30:11.600 but it didn't work. You didn't You didn't get a 1982 01:30:11.640 --> 01:30:13.399 rental just because you wanted to make the playoffs. You 1983 01:30:13.520 --> 01:30:15.039 got a rental to give you a chance to win 1984 01:30:15.079 --> 01:30:17.600 the whole thing. Who's the guy they traded for from Baltimore? 1985 01:30:18.880 --> 01:30:21.319 That play a little for trade man seen? Yeah, Mancini, 1986 01:30:21.479 --> 01:30:22.079 that worked out. 1987 01:30:22.159 --> 01:30:23.520 You won the twenty two World. 1988 01:30:23.760 --> 01:30:25.479 Left field, play a little first base, dh and you 1989 01:30:25.520 --> 01:30:25.760 want it. 1990 01:30:25.920 --> 01:30:28.479 That's That's a prime example of one we look at 1991 01:30:28.560 --> 01:30:30.359 as it worked because you won the World. 1992 01:30:30.239 --> 01:30:32.960 Series exactly and he wasn't He wasn't a dominant player, 1993 01:30:33.000 --> 01:30:35.000 but he was. The timing was right, and you won 1994 01:30:35.079 --> 01:30:37.239 a World Series. So they say, would you do it again? Yeah, 1995 01:30:37.520 --> 01:30:39.680 and you do the Kokuchi thing again if it ended 1996 01:30:39.720 --> 01:30:41.680 in a World Series. But since it ended in a 1997 01:30:41.720 --> 01:30:43.359 two game sweep and you never saw him on the mound, 1998 01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:46.720 the perception is, even though he was really good, is 1999 01:30:46.920 --> 01:30:49.279 you gave up three minor leaguers and all of them 2000 01:30:49.319 --> 01:30:51.199 are gone as well as the guy who you rented. 2001 01:30:51.520 --> 01:30:53.520 So that's the danger of that. And if you were 2002 01:30:53.560 --> 01:30:55.439 to go get a guy like Dylan Ce's or a rental, 2003 01:30:55.479 --> 01:30:58.159 guess what you're you're aiming for. That'll tell you if 2004 01:30:58.199 --> 01:30:59.960 they go do that, that you believe that you're gonna 2005 01:31:00.000 --> 01:31:00.800 win the World Series. 2006 01:31:00.880 --> 01:31:05.359 What's that phrase? Opportunity costs. The opportunity cost of what 2007 01:31:05.560 --> 01:31:07.880 you have to give up to get a cease, I 2008 01:31:07.960 --> 01:31:12.119 think is greater. Is greater than I've got Spencer Arraghetty 2009 01:31:12.680 --> 01:31:16.720 in double A corpus, I've got Luis Garcia in double 2010 01:31:16.800 --> 01:31:18.720 A Corpus, I got Christian Javier are heading a triple 2011 01:31:18.760 --> 01:31:21.159 A sugar lamb, Like I'm going to get these guys 2012 01:31:21.239 --> 01:31:24.319 back to me. I've got a bank and I'm paying them. 2013 01:31:24.399 --> 01:31:26.560 I'm paying Christian Haavey or whatever it is, sixteen seventy 2014 01:31:26.560 --> 01:31:28.920 million a year. Like that guy's got to get back 2015 01:31:29.000 --> 01:31:31.359 and produce and earn his money rather than me and 2016 01:31:31.520 --> 01:31:34.479 going and spending, spending, spending and losing assets. 2017 01:31:34.560 --> 01:31:37.279 Like and it goes back to the Bilo cell High thing, 2018 01:31:37.359 --> 01:31:42.039 Gordy business school. First thing, I mean, is it if 2019 01:31:42.119 --> 01:31:44.960 you and that that's the whole goal and this is 2020 01:31:45.119 --> 01:31:48.399 business school that it's the risk reward if if you're 2021 01:31:48.479 --> 01:31:51.119 taking the risk, what's bigger here on a Dylan ces guy, 2022 01:31:51.319 --> 01:31:54.840 the risk is because the chase. Now he gives you 2023 01:31:54.920 --> 01:31:57.439 a chance. But in truth, there's far more you have 2024 01:31:57.560 --> 01:31:59.760 to do to get and win a World Series than 2025 01:32:00.079 --> 01:32:01.960 just get to the playoffs and lose. And it would 2026 01:32:01.960 --> 01:32:03.880 be a failure on a rental with him if he 2027 01:32:04.000 --> 01:32:05.760 was gone at now you go get him, You get 2028 01:32:05.760 --> 01:32:07.680 to the playoffs and you don't have to give up, 2029 01:32:07.720 --> 01:32:09.479 and all of a sudden you win a World Series 2030 01:32:09.520 --> 01:32:11.039 and you sign him for four years and now he's 2031 01:32:11.039 --> 01:32:13.359 a cy young guy to next year. Well, then you win. 2032 01:32:14.039 --> 01:32:16.720 But the risk reward and you are right. Sometimes that 2033 01:32:16.960 --> 01:32:21.159 risk is just too big for the reward unless you're 2034 01:32:21.159 --> 01:32:23.840 guaranteed the reward. And guess what, when it's pro sports, 2035 01:32:24.560 --> 01:32:27.840 there's no guarantee other than maybe Otani okay, and he's 2036 01:32:27.880 --> 01:32:28.479 not available. 2037 01:32:28.840 --> 01:32:31.399 Oh and let me give you a guy like guys 2038 01:32:31.439 --> 01:32:34.359 on the roster could start to heat up. What if 2039 01:32:34.399 --> 01:32:36.960 I told you Christian Walker is batting three forty eight 2040 01:32:37.000 --> 01:32:37.880 in the month of July. 2041 01:32:37.840 --> 01:32:40.279 So far, I'd say that's exactly what you bargain for 2042 01:32:40.399 --> 01:32:42.399 maybe not three forty eight, but a hot bat when 2043 01:32:42.439 --> 01:32:43.119 you got him. 2044 01:32:43.359 --> 01:32:46.039 It's getting hot. I mean he was batting two thirteen 2045 01:32:46.119 --> 01:32:47.039 coming into this month. 2046 01:32:46.880 --> 01:32:47.840 Seing two forty something. 2047 01:32:47.920 --> 01:32:50.479 Now close to two forty now, I mean it's he's 2048 01:32:50.560 --> 01:32:53.960 heating up. Don't let him get hot. Now, if Walker 2049 01:32:54.039 --> 01:32:57.079 gets hot and maybe you get paying, youa Myers and 2050 01:32:57.119 --> 01:33:00.479 yourd on back different stories this thing move. Do you 2051 01:33:00.560 --> 01:33:02.119 need to make it the deadline? You don't need one. 2052 01:33:02.239 --> 01:33:04.399 Gordy was a healthy as the move. Think about this, 2053 01:33:04.520 --> 01:33:05.960 with all these guys out, who was the middle of 2054 01:33:06.000 --> 01:33:12.600 your lineup supposed to be Jordon Walker and Jiner. Yeah, now, 2055 01:33:13.279 --> 01:33:18.199 up until about two weeks ago, Jordon not productive, hurt 2056 01:33:18.359 --> 01:33:20.600 this year. I'm just talking about this year Christian Walker 2057 01:33:20.920 --> 01:33:25.279 hitting in the two teens and Jiner Diez splitting a 2058 01:33:25.319 --> 01:33:29.479 little more time with Victor Krottini. And that was supposed 2059 01:33:29.520 --> 01:33:32.800 to be three four five, maybe Walker or or Yin 2060 01:33:32.880 --> 01:33:34.880 or hitting the six hole. But that was supposed to 2061 01:33:34.920 --> 01:33:36.760 be your middle of your lineup al two by leading 2062 01:33:36.840 --> 01:33:39.399 off whoever you put it second, and at the time 2063 01:33:39.439 --> 01:33:41.720 it would have been Paradius, right, and if you decided 2064 01:33:41.760 --> 01:33:44.000 it wasn't, Paratus was something else, but you were going 2065 01:33:44.000 --> 01:33:48.439 out too ve Paradis, Jordon Walker and or Yiner and 2066 01:33:48.520 --> 01:33:51.399 then fifth Walker and or Yiner, then Payana and then 2067 01:33:51.479 --> 01:33:54.079 however else and went seven eight nine. Well, here you 2068 01:33:54.159 --> 01:33:57.319 are now, and it's starting to look like that. So 2069 01:33:57.439 --> 01:33:59.920 those three guys that were not productive for the majority 2070 01:33:59.960 --> 01:34:02.600 of the season, now you get Walker hot. If Yiner 2071 01:34:02.640 --> 01:34:04.279 starts to pick up and you get your back, you're 2072 01:34:04.279 --> 01:34:07.039 exactly right. Eighteen games over five hundred to'll end up 2073 01:34:07.079 --> 01:34:09.680 twenty five thirty games over five hundred if this continues, 2074 01:34:10.000 --> 01:34:11.319 It's exactly right. Yeah. 2075 01:34:11.399 --> 01:34:14.479 Maybe maybe the trade deadline move is getting an extra 2076 01:34:14.600 --> 01:34:17.640 trainer in the room to help uh gods get healthy. 2077 01:34:17.760 --> 01:34:20.199 We got calves, we got hammies, we got obliques, we 2078 01:34:20.279 --> 01:34:22.840 got ribs, we got a hand break, we've got blisters, we. 2079 01:34:22.960 --> 01:34:24.960 Got syn Astros have just made a trade with the 2080 01:34:25.000 --> 01:34:29.119 Seattle Mariners for the trainer, Marcos Gonzalez. He's gonna come 2081 01:34:29.159 --> 01:34:31.479 in here and he's gonna help this team get healthy 2082 01:34:31.560 --> 01:34:32.560 with some new techniques. 2083 01:34:32.600 --> 01:34:34.720 And they're also sitting in a case of tape, okay, 2084 01:34:36.760 --> 01:34:37.239 pre wrap. 2085 01:34:37.399 --> 01:34:39.800 I cannot confirm this, but he's bringing a training table 2086 01:34:39.880 --> 01:34:41.560 with them. I've been told so and. 2087 01:34:41.640 --> 01:34:43.560 It's also got the hole in it like that, so 2088 01:34:43.640 --> 01:34:45.720 you can so you can work on your upper back 2089 01:34:45.760 --> 01:34:48.159 too without you not being able to have that plastic 2090 01:34:48.239 --> 01:34:49.920 in your face when the covering and you don't have 2091 01:34:49.960 --> 01:34:53.239 to put a towel down. Just just no Deshaun massages. Sorry, 2092 01:34:53.920 --> 01:34:56.119 I wasn't ever going there. I think that's for other people. 2093 01:34:56.159 --> 01:34:58.039 I'm not talking about that. I get to throw up 2094 01:34:58.039 --> 01:34:59.800 in my mouth. We'll get it. 2095 01:35:00.159 --> 01:35:02.720 The more Astros, the Texas conversations stay with us. 2096 01:35:04.600 --> 01:35:06.640 Let the celebration start more. 2097 01:35:06.880 --> 01:35:09.720 Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven ninety. 2098 01:35:12.359 --> 01:35:15.439 And if you talk about who's the backup quarterback to Tua, 2099 01:35:15.920 --> 01:35:18.039 who's the backup to the Giant even giants, and it's cycle, 2100 01:35:18.279 --> 01:35:20.800 that's yours. There you go, Miami, you got draft, what's 2101 01:35:20.880 --> 01:35:23.319 the late round draft pick? And when you talk about 2102 01:35:24.319 --> 01:35:26.640 like we were talking about Russ Wilson yesterday, said man, 2103 01:35:27.079 --> 01:35:28.560 I was asked the question who's the backup? And I 2104 01:35:28.600 --> 01:35:29.720 had to think for a second. I said, Oh, it's 2105 01:35:29.760 --> 01:35:32.479 Jameis Winston. Because of the topic of Brian dable name 2106 01:35:32.560 --> 01:35:35.479 and a starter, and Jameis Winston's a viable, big time 2107 01:35:35.560 --> 01:35:38.520 backup who can start for you? So it's nothing anymore. 2108 01:35:38.840 --> 01:35:41.880 With all the changes. You could ask ninety percent of 2109 01:35:41.920 --> 01:35:44.119 the football world, where's Trey Lance? Are like, I'm not 2110 01:35:44.199 --> 01:35:47.319 really sure where he is, but yeah, he's not gonna 2111 01:35:47.359 --> 01:35:49.159 see the field there either. Because we were talking about 2112 01:35:49.159 --> 01:35:51.239 good players that ended up being bust and then journeyman 2113 01:35:51.279 --> 01:35:52.399 who ended up becoming players. 2114 01:35:52.479 --> 01:35:55.279 Okay, let's clear this up real quick because I didn't 2115 01:35:55.279 --> 01:35:58.520 know any of this. The backup in San Diego to 2116 01:35:58.760 --> 01:36:01.560 Trey Lance is the back up to Justine Sane. 2117 01:36:02.079 --> 01:36:04.479 It's not San Diego La. I still called San Diego too. 2118 01:36:04.600 --> 01:36:06.000 Don't have same way? You know what they are? 2119 01:36:06.119 --> 01:36:12.840 Yes, So Trey Lance is a Charger. The backup to 2120 01:36:13.079 --> 01:36:19.359 Trevor Lawrence in Jacksonville is Nick Mullins former Fort and 2121 01:36:19.720 --> 01:36:23.079 Minnesota Viking. Mac Jones he left this offseason, was in 2122 01:36:23.199 --> 01:36:27.920 Jacksonville last year. Is now the backup to brock Party 2123 01:36:28.039 --> 01:36:28.960 in San Francisco. 2124 01:36:29.119 --> 01:36:32.520 And think about this Mac Jones. And if you go 2125 01:36:32.680 --> 01:36:36.840 back and remember now, remember when they drafted Trey Lance. 2126 01:36:38.720 --> 01:36:40.840 Do you know that Mac Jones at the time, Remember 2127 01:36:40.920 --> 01:36:43.399 they were talking to San Francisco was are they going 2128 01:36:43.479 --> 01:36:46.760 to draft mac Jones? And you're talking about where is 2129 01:36:46.800 --> 01:36:48.640 he going to go. Well, think about Mac Jones. He 2130 01:36:48.800 --> 01:36:52.000 started in New England two years ago. He's on his 2131 01:36:52.119 --> 01:36:54.399 third team and three. That's how quickly people are moving 2132 01:36:54.479 --> 01:36:56.640 on from the guys like Anthony Richardson and the rest 2133 01:36:56.680 --> 01:36:58.680 of it. But trying to keep your eye on the 2134 01:36:58.720 --> 01:37:00.119 backup quarterback body. 2135 01:37:00.039 --> 01:37:02.680 Well, and to bring in full circle here, the backup 2136 01:37:02.760 --> 01:37:05.920 in Miami which you just mentioned is Zach Wilson. Do 2137 01:37:06.000 --> 01:37:08.239 you realize that's all the twenty fifteen or the twenty 2138 01:37:08.319 --> 01:37:11.960 twenty one NFL draft quarterbacks Trevor Lawrence won, Zach Wilson 2139 01:37:12.039 --> 01:37:16.960 to Trey Lance three, Justin Fields was eleven, which he is. 2140 01:37:17.039 --> 01:37:20.600 In where Fields as a starting quarterback with the Jets, 2141 01:37:20.680 --> 01:37:21.399 that he's the. 2142 01:37:21.479 --> 01:37:24.279 Starter with the Jets. Where Zach Wilson was and Mac 2143 01:37:24.359 --> 01:37:27.159 Jones was fifteen, All those guys were the same draft. 2144 01:37:27.399 --> 01:37:28.399 And thank you. So guess what. 2145 01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:30.840 Guess we'll just play a physical change and. 2146 01:37:30.880 --> 01:37:32.640 Guess what we're gonna say about that draft. If you 2147 01:37:32.720 --> 01:37:34.199 had to label that draft right now, you know what 2148 01:37:34.239 --> 01:37:38.880 you're saying. Horrible quarterback draft exactly. And that includes when 2149 01:37:38.880 --> 01:37:41.439 I say horrible. He's been good at times, great at times, 2150 01:37:41.800 --> 01:37:44.479 average at times, and crappy at times is Trevor Lawrence. 2151 01:37:44.800 --> 01:37:47.039 And as the first pick, can I say, would you 2152 01:37:47.039 --> 01:37:49.319 would you say this if I said right now, if 2153 01:37:49.359 --> 01:37:51.399 his career ended, would you have called Trevor Lawrence a 2154 01:37:51.479 --> 01:37:52.439 bust or a success? 2155 01:37:53.439 --> 01:37:54.720 More of a bust closer to. 2156 01:37:54.760 --> 01:37:57.079 The button now, not a full bus, not a full success, 2157 01:37:57.199 --> 01:37:59.479 closer to the well as the first pick of the draft, 2158 01:37:59.680 --> 01:38:02.399 expect acting more correct. So that's where we are now. 2159 01:38:02.479 --> 01:38:05.479 Look after that, not a one of them is on 2160 01:38:05.560 --> 01:38:09.359 the team they started other than him. Zach Wilson's on 2161 01:38:09.439 --> 01:38:11.640 his third or fourth team. Mac Jones is on his 2162 01:38:11.760 --> 01:38:17.039 third team. H third team is justin fields. None of 2163 01:38:17.119 --> 01:38:21.680 them are are having rousing success right now. And they 2164 01:38:21.760 --> 01:38:24.680 were all in the same draft, and. 2165 01:38:24.720 --> 01:38:27.640 It's like you're all just playing musical chairs. Yeah, you're like, oh, this. 2166 01:38:27.640 --> 01:38:30.279 Will replace you, you go replace me. That's exactly right. 2167 01:38:30.359 --> 01:38:33.079 So what's crazy talk about not an exact science. 2168 01:38:34.039 --> 01:38:36.840 A redraft of twenty twenty one. I don't know if 2169 01:38:36.880 --> 01:38:39.479 a quarterback goes on the top three picks, because your 2170 01:38:39.520 --> 01:38:43.239 top three picks are most likely I'm just eyeballing this. 2171 01:38:43.479 --> 01:38:49.760 I'd probably go Jamar Chase, Micah Parsons, Patrick Stand. 2172 01:38:49.960 --> 01:38:52.800 I mean, but even if you just say certain, yeah, 2173 01:38:53.680 --> 01:38:56.319 those are three full blown Pro bowlers that have lived 2174 01:38:56.399 --> 01:39:01.039 up and exceeded at times expectations as opposed to four 2175 01:39:01.119 --> 01:39:04.359 other quarterbacks or five quarterbacks that right now or other 2176 01:39:04.439 --> 01:39:08.039 than Lawrence, our journeymen. There are journeymen. 2177 01:39:08.720 --> 01:39:10.560 Nico Collins to go in the third round. I might 2178 01:39:10.600 --> 01:39:11.159 put him up there. 2179 01:39:11.359 --> 01:39:13.239 Well, if Nico Collins, this is a redraft, knowing what 2180 01:39:13.319 --> 01:39:15.840 you know now, he's a top fifteen pick as a 2181 01:39:15.880 --> 01:39:18.079 wide receiver because he's a big, physical game breaker. 2182 01:39:18.159 --> 01:39:22.520 So I just we redrafted a quarterback wouldn't even go 2183 01:39:22.720 --> 01:39:23.399 right five. 2184 01:39:23.439 --> 01:39:26.199 And that's Lawrence included. Now out of need, you may 2185 01:39:26.239 --> 01:39:28.399 have drafted him depending on need, because you're the potential. 2186 01:39:28.439 --> 01:39:32.119 But judging by production as a matter of fact, the 2187 01:39:32.159 --> 01:39:35.079 other four they're not drafted in the first round because 2188 01:39:35.079 --> 01:39:38.439 they haven't had any There's been no semblance of them 2189 01:39:38.520 --> 01:39:42.199 being first round production. It's crazy how that, And you 2190 01:39:42.279 --> 01:39:45.000 wonder why people miss on that position and why a 2191 01:39:45.079 --> 01:39:47.960 seventh round pick like Perdy can get sixty million and 2192 01:39:48.079 --> 01:39:50.439 then the top pick of the draft can flounder to 2193 01:39:50.520 --> 01:39:53.359 the point where Jacksonville's not sure if the future is 2194 01:39:53.439 --> 01:39:55.520 there and they just paid him what fifty eight million 2195 01:39:55.560 --> 01:39:58.439 bucks or whatever it was. And Trevor Lawrence, it's a 2196 01:39:58.479 --> 01:40:01.520 hard position to evaluate. Just asked that draft class. 2197 01:40:01.680 --> 01:40:04.279 Yeah, I mean remember they when they took Blake Bortles. 2198 01:40:04.680 --> 01:40:08.199 The Texans were considering it. Bro Bill O'Brien liked them 2199 01:40:08.199 --> 01:40:10.760 a lot. I think that was the Clowney draft. But 2200 01:40:10.880 --> 01:40:13.880 they had Bortles and they went to the AFC title game. Yeah, 2201 01:40:14.359 --> 01:40:17.960 and then it followed the right and he became a backup. Yeah, Gordy, 2202 01:40:18.039 --> 01:40:18.479 think about this. 2203 01:40:18.600 --> 01:40:20.720 If I said, right now, and this is not at you, 2204 01:40:20.880 --> 01:40:23.439 its most if I said, right down on a piece 2205 01:40:23.479 --> 01:40:25.600 of paper without looking at that before we do this, 2206 01:40:25.720 --> 01:40:29.359 I said, the thirty two backups at running back and 2207 01:40:29.439 --> 01:40:33.039 quarterback in the NFL, you'd probably get through what four 2208 01:40:33.079 --> 01:40:35.159 of them? Yeah, I don't mean, and that's a guy 2209 01:40:35.239 --> 01:40:37.800 who you follow it closely like I do. But you 2210 01:40:37.960 --> 01:40:39.840 have to think, if I said, right now, who's the 2211 01:40:39.920 --> 01:40:44.159 backup in Minnesota, you have to exactly. 2212 01:40:43.880 --> 01:40:46.319 Right, JJ McCarthy is the starter now. 2213 01:40:46.319 --> 01:40:49.920 And guess who's gone. Daniel Jones is in Indianapolis. Obviously, 2214 01:40:50.039 --> 01:40:53.000 Donald's in Seattle. So just for just for talking sake, 2215 01:40:54.039 --> 01:40:56.840 Minnesota Vikings backup quarterback they're starting in essence, you know 2216 01:40:57.079 --> 01:41:01.239 answer I did going into last year, and uh and 2217 01:41:01.359 --> 01:41:04.520 I go on and I go on every Thursday with 2218 01:41:05.399 --> 01:41:06.720 Dan Burrero in Minnesota. 2219 01:41:07.000 --> 01:41:08.039 It is Sam Holle. 2220 01:41:08.159 --> 01:41:12.239 There you go, former North Carolina and Washington commander's quarter. 2221 01:41:12.600 --> 01:41:13.319 Brett Rippin. 2222 01:41:13.760 --> 01:41:16.880 Yeah, Mark's uh Mark Rippin's uh nephew. 2223 01:41:17.279 --> 01:41:19.039 Do you know who the backup day is? The cam 2224 01:41:19.119 --> 01:41:20.199 Ward in Tennessee? 2225 01:41:20.359 --> 01:41:24.800 The backup to cam Ward in Tennessee is give me 2226 01:41:24.840 --> 01:41:26.720 an idea where he went to school? Because I do 2227 01:41:26.920 --> 01:41:28.640 know this. Oh it's Brandon Allen. 2228 01:41:28.760 --> 01:41:31.520 Yeah, at Wood. You could give me twenty guests that's never. 2229 01:41:31.439 --> 01:41:33.800 Ran all yep, there you go see what I mean? Okay, 2230 01:41:33.840 --> 01:41:40.000 who's Caleb Williams backup Caleb Williams in Chicago? Man, because 2231 01:41:40.079 --> 01:41:42.720 you've never heard his name? Because why is all Caleb 2232 01:41:42.720 --> 01:41:45.680 Williams of Ben Johnson? Who's the backup there? Oh? 2233 01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:48.319 Well they signed case. I know Keenum's there, right, but 2234 01:41:48.359 --> 01:41:50.079 I don't know if he's he's probably third string. 2235 01:41:50.239 --> 01:41:51.880 So but that's my point. 2236 01:41:51.960 --> 01:41:56.800 Let's see Tyson, Badgeant, pagent, badget whatever it was. 2237 01:41:56.840 --> 01:41:58.720 It be a it's b A D G, E N 2238 01:41:58.760 --> 01:42:00.920 T or something round a sheep he's played. 2239 01:42:01.079 --> 01:42:04.119 How is that guy back? And Sean pay. 2240 01:42:06.000 --> 01:42:10.000 Million right now? Just don't hit me. Yeah, think about that. 2241 01:42:11.760 --> 01:42:12.239 So that's my. 2242 01:42:12.319 --> 01:42:15.159 Point is like I am gonna milk this thing until 2243 01:42:15.560 --> 01:42:16.039 until no. 2244 01:42:17.199 --> 01:42:20.239 Case Keenum needs to have a well Omarvis scale play 2245 01:42:20.319 --> 01:42:22.520 twenty four to twenty five years. Dude, keep getting paid. 2246 01:42:22.880 --> 01:42:24.960 I don't blame. That's my point is you can be 2247 01:42:25.159 --> 01:42:28.359 heavy into it the off season movement backup quarterback, and 2248 01:42:28.439 --> 01:42:30.720 it's a valuable position because you don't know you love 2249 01:42:30.800 --> 01:42:33.800 them until you need them, and then when they don't perform, 2250 01:42:33.840 --> 01:42:36.159 you're like, oh my gosh. But that's the way it is. 2251 01:42:37.039 --> 01:42:39.079 Times have changed. You knew when Steve Young was a 2252 01:42:39.119 --> 01:42:41.359 backup to Joe Montana, you have zero idea. I'm not 2253 01:42:41.439 --> 01:42:43.680 saying you all of us. I'm on every week in 2254 01:42:43.760 --> 01:42:46.079 Minnesota Talk and I had to think, like who is 2255 01:42:46.159 --> 01:42:46.560 the backup? 2256 01:42:46.640 --> 01:42:46.920 That is. 2257 01:42:48.760 --> 01:42:48.800 It? 2258 01:42:49.359 --> 01:42:50.199 That with your friends today? 2259 01:42:50.199 --> 01:42:52.880 See how many backup quarterbacks in the NFL your friends 2260 01:42:52.880 --> 01:42:55.119 can name right now that like that are where they 2261 01:42:55.159 --> 01:42:55.680 are right now. 2262 01:42:55.880 --> 01:42:58.520 Hey, go to the defensive coordinator in some of these places, 2263 01:42:58.520 --> 01:43:00.359 say who's the backup quarterback? He'll say, I don't know 2264 01:43:00.359 --> 01:43:02.720 who the backup quarterback is on my team. That's how 2265 01:43:02.960 --> 01:43:03.720 crazy this is. 2266 01:43:03.840 --> 01:43:05.960 You know who's backing up Patrick Mahomes. 2267 01:43:05.680 --> 01:43:08.079 Now, Patrick Maholmes backup? I do know this. It was 2268 01:43:08.159 --> 01:43:10.920 Carson Wentz last year. Give me his alma mater, and 2269 01:43:10.960 --> 01:43:17.119 I can probably tell you Washington State, Washington State. I 2270 01:43:17.239 --> 01:43:21.319 don't know. It's yes, it's it's Minshew. Yeah, yeah, that's right. 2271 01:43:21.359 --> 01:43:25.880 I had no idea. See talk about the perfect journeyman 2272 01:43:26.119 --> 01:43:28.199 starter and backup at every city he's played in. 2273 01:43:28.319 --> 01:43:29.960 He was backing up Stafford for the Rams. 2274 01:43:30.680 --> 01:43:36.840 Matthew Stafford, backup. Give me the alma mater, Oh, Northern Illinois, 2275 01:43:37.600 --> 01:43:44.840 Tony Romo the other one. That's a crazy quiz, right, 2276 01:43:45.119 --> 01:43:48.880 and that's Gordie. I would say that you probably follow 2277 01:43:48.920 --> 01:43:55.159 football as close as people who follow football close. Guess 2278 01:43:55.199 --> 01:43:58.079 what and tell of course you need him for eight games, right? 2279 01:43:58.359 --> 01:44:00.560 You need Teddy Bridgewater in New Orleans to win five 2280 01:44:00.640 --> 01:44:03.560 for you when Drew Brees gets hurt. It's a crazy dynamic. 2281 01:44:03.800 --> 01:44:07.079 And now you say, who's the best backup in the league, Garoppolo, 2282 01:44:07.159 --> 01:44:11.119 maybe Jameis Winston. Maybe who's the best backup quarterback in 2283 01:44:11.159 --> 01:44:13.680 the league, Davis Mills in your top ten of course. 2284 01:44:13.680 --> 01:44:16.920 Davis Mills might be up there, exactly a reliable backup 2285 01:44:17.000 --> 01:44:17.760 that you can count on. 2286 01:44:17.880 --> 01:44:21.000 Yeah, that's right, all right, trip man. One more for you. 2287 01:44:21.079 --> 01:44:23.119 Who's backing up Jalen Hurts in Philly? 2288 01:44:23.800 --> 01:44:26.159 Jalen Hurts back up in Philly. Isn't that McKee? 2289 01:44:26.520 --> 01:44:30.239 Tanner? McKee got a good, good call out of Stanford again. 2290 01:44:30.279 --> 01:44:31.720 Could have given me twenty guests this and never. 2291 01:44:31.600 --> 01:44:34.079 Would have got there. You go, brother, that's it's nothing 2292 01:44:34.079 --> 01:44:35.760 to be a shame because that's the rest of the 2293 01:44:35.960 --> 01:44:37.920 ninety nine percent of the world feels the same way. 2294 01:44:38.000 --> 01:44:39.319 That's wild.

That was Mercury. That was a 2337 01:46:44.399 --> 01:46:46.239 that's about as good a casting as you can get 2338 01:46:46.319 --> 01:46:48.920 because of the look. And I thought he played the 2339 01:46:49.000 --> 01:46:52.560 role what's his name Remy yeah, yeah, Mallard, Yeah, what's 2340 01:46:52.560 --> 01:46:54.720 say it against what's Malick? Yeah? Malick? That's it? And 2341 01:46:54.840 --> 01:46:57.079 who is really good at his job? He's really good. 2342 01:46:58.319 --> 01:47:00.640 But that's hard to that's hard to reach eight because 2343 01:47:00.640 --> 01:47:03.159 you also now I know, with with the way that 2344 01:47:03.439 --> 01:47:05.279 studios work, that you don't have to be a singer. 2345 01:47:05.319 --> 01:47:07.560 But if you got a good voice too, it's kind 2346 01:47:07.600 --> 01:47:10.279 of nice, like you know what was interesting. 2347 01:47:10.359 --> 01:47:13.399 I read Malick sang a little bit, but they had 2348 01:47:13.439 --> 01:47:17.720 a guy who is a Queen impersonator or Freddie Mercury impersonator, 2349 01:47:18.119 --> 01:47:19.800 who re sang a lot of that stuff, right, so 2350 01:47:19.880 --> 01:47:21.359 he's voice over a lot of it, and then they 2351 01:47:21.399 --> 01:47:24.800 took actual Freddie Mercury's voice. So it's an interesting layer. 2352 01:47:25.279 --> 01:47:27.439 It's amazing. Well, it's amazing how they can do that 2353 01:47:27.560 --> 01:47:29.600 with all this stuff. Hell, we got to see Hank 2354 01:47:29.640 --> 01:47:31.560 Aaron without seeing Hank Aaron at the All Star Game, 2355 01:47:31.600 --> 01:47:32.960 you know, with the three the way they do these 2356 01:47:33.000 --> 01:47:36.039 presentations with the with the three D and the what 2357 01:47:36.119 --> 01:47:40.079 do they call that like being yeah, the Holly guys. 2358 01:47:40.119 --> 01:47:43.520 It's pretty impressive, man. So it's only a matter of 2359 01:47:43.600 --> 01:47:46.199 time before Hell, when are they going to start? Honestly, 2360 01:47:46.479 --> 01:47:51.159 you're doing movies where you bring back oh yeah, old actors, right, 2361 01:47:51.640 --> 01:47:54.119 and I mean some of these movies where a guy died, 2362 01:47:54.199 --> 01:47:58.359 like the African American Gentleman and all the equalizers. Who 2363 01:47:58.439 --> 01:48:02.000 works at the hotel, you know, you know who's the hotel? 2364 01:48:02.279 --> 01:48:05.199 Who greets John Wick at the hotel. He's a really 2365 01:48:05.199 --> 01:48:07.359 good actor and he's been a great supporting actor. He 2366 01:48:07.520 --> 01:48:10.479 passed away and yet in post movies or like Paul 2367 01:48:11.239 --> 01:48:14.880 for for the uh with the family. What's my go to, 2368 01:48:14.960 --> 01:48:17.439 Mike Paul Walker, you know with the with the way 2369 01:48:17.520 --> 01:48:21.439 they but they still have him in post movies after 2370 01:48:21.520 --> 01:48:23.159 he had passed away, right, you know what I'm saying 2371 01:48:23.239 --> 01:48:25.760 to like, whether he's standing on the beach where you 2372 01:48:25.800 --> 01:48:27.560 can put him in. I'm just wondering if we're ever 2373 01:48:27.600 --> 01:48:28.600 going to get to the point where you do a 2374 01:48:28.640 --> 01:48:30.560 full movie with former actors that are in a full 2375 01:48:30.640 --> 01:48:33.159 movie that none of them are alive. 2376 01:48:33.279 --> 01:48:37.159 Well, I think we're five years away from AI. We'll 2377 01:48:37.239 --> 01:48:39.560 just automate the Sean Salisburg show. It'll be Sean giving 2378 01:48:39.640 --> 01:48:42.239 his takes AI, and you can just sleep in. 2379 01:48:42.439 --> 01:48:46.159 I'll retire before that happens. Okay. Now, if you're saying, Sean, 2380 01:48:46.239 --> 01:48:47.720 do the show the day before, they're going to copy 2381 01:48:47.760 --> 01:48:49.920 your voice and it's going to be AI and Clint 2382 01:48:49.960 --> 01:48:53.319 Eastwood's hoping hosting your show. Great, but let's see you 2383 01:48:53.359 --> 01:48:55.439 say five years that'll take me. Yeah, I'll be on 2384 01:48:55.520 --> 01:48:56.560 the golf course when that happen. 2385 01:48:56.600 --> 01:48:57.840 Heard the show today he sounded great? 2386 01:48:57.920 --> 01:48:58.159 Or really? 2387 01:48:58.199 --> 01:48:58.680 What did I say? 2388 01:48:58.800 --> 01:49:00.680 Yeah? What did I say? Because I was a whole four. 2389 01:49:01.000 --> 01:49:08.359 Okay, yeah, well, if not Ai, maybe Colin Cowherd will 2390 01:49:08.359 --> 01:49:10.479 put us all out of business with his flaming. 2391 01:49:10.439 --> 01:49:11.920 Cha let me hear this one. 2392 01:49:12.439 --> 01:49:14.800 This was one we were talking about Archie Manning earlier. 2393 01:49:14.840 --> 01:49:17.399 We were talking about the Cleveland Browns. We talked about 2394 01:49:17.439 --> 01:49:21.920 Nick Saban yesterday. Here is Colin Cowherd with what he 2395 01:49:22.039 --> 01:49:24.159 calls the worst kept secret in the South. Now, I 2396 01:49:24.319 --> 01:49:26.279 live in the South, I know a lot of all 2397 01:49:26.319 --> 01:49:28.640 my friends live in the South. I have not heard 2398 01:49:28.760 --> 01:49:31.960 one damn person say this yet he thinks it's the 2399 01:49:32.079 --> 01:49:35.199 worst kept secret in the South, meaning everybody knows this. 2400 01:49:35.479 --> 01:49:38.520 This is just common knowledge. Sean. Okay, here's Colin Cowherd. 2401 01:49:39.439 --> 01:49:42.439 In fact, this is the worst kept secret in the South. 2402 01:49:43.239 --> 01:49:48.359 Haslam Jimmy, owner of the Browns, huge sec Tennessee Booster 2403 01:49:49.520 --> 01:49:55.000 leans heavily on the Manning family, very close to the 2404 01:49:55.079 --> 01:50:00.840 Manning family. Yes that that that's not make believe. Rsh 2405 01:50:00.920 --> 01:50:03.920 Manning is part of the Manning family. And this is 2406 01:50:03.920 --> 01:50:08.000 where Nick Saban comes in. Saban is incredibly close to 2407 01:50:08.119 --> 01:50:13.600 not only Jimmy Haslam, but Saban's close to the Manning 2408 01:50:13.680 --> 01:50:17.960 family as well. And so Saban if he could Land. 2409 01:50:18.079 --> 01:50:21.800 I'm told a top quarterback like Harbaugh going to the 2410 01:50:21.920 --> 01:50:24.119 charges for Herbert, he would take a phone call for 2411 01:50:24.159 --> 01:50:27.239 the NFL. And there are two teams guaranteed to be 2412 01:50:27.439 --> 01:50:30.840 awful this year in the NFL, Cleveland. 2413 01:50:30.600 --> 01:50:31.239 And the Saints. 2414 01:50:32.479 --> 01:50:35.119 Nick Saban has coached in Cleveland with the Browns under 2415 01:50:35.119 --> 01:50:38.399 the Belichick staff, and he coached at LSU. 2416 01:50:39.640 --> 01:50:41.159 This is not a conspiracy theory. 2417 01:50:42.600 --> 01:50:45.960 Haslam's circle of trust, according to an article in the 2418 01:50:46.039 --> 01:50:53.279 Athletic last year, is the Manning family and Jimmy Sexton 2419 01:50:53.680 --> 01:50:59.000 and Bill Parcells. Sexton is Nick Saban's agent. So the 2420 01:50:59.119 --> 01:51:02.960 Mannings are royalty in New Orleans. The children's hospital in 2421 01:51:03.039 --> 01:51:06.720 New Orleans is called the Mannings Children's Hospital, and the 2422 01:51:06.800 --> 01:51:11.279 Mannings are royalty to Jimmy Haslam. Jimmy has them also 2423 01:51:11.399 --> 01:51:14.720 loves headlines. That's why he pushed the draft. Johnny Manzel 2424 01:51:15.319 --> 01:51:17.279 and Baker Mayfield, they were the most talk to. 2425 01:51:18.880 --> 01:51:19.840 A ridiculous Garren. 2426 01:51:20.079 --> 01:51:24.239 The ridiculous connection he's trying to make here, Colin Cowhurtshaw 2427 01:51:24.359 --> 01:51:28.039 is trying to put Arch Manning with head coach Nick 2428 01:51:28.119 --> 01:51:32.000 Saban with the Cleveland Browns and saying that everybody knows 2429 01:51:32.039 --> 01:51:34.840 this is common knowledge, Like I have not heard one 2430 01:51:35.000 --> 01:51:35.880 soul the first. 2431 01:51:35.720 --> 01:51:37.720 Time I've heard it. But have you noticed that he 2432 01:51:37.800 --> 01:51:41.039 covered It's like Peyton who loves they love, haslm has them, 2433 01:51:41.079 --> 01:51:44.239 loves them, who loves Nick Saban, who loves Bill Parcells, 2434 01:51:44.239 --> 01:51:47.319 who coached in Cleveland, who loves New Orleans, who's part 2435 01:51:47.319 --> 01:51:50.119 of the Children's hospital, and the Mannings are royalty. That's 2436 01:51:50.159 --> 01:51:51.800 a lot of layers to get to one of them 2437 01:51:51.880 --> 01:51:54.199 is going to be right, I'm sure. And the fact 2438 01:51:54.199 --> 01:51:58.439 that Jimmy Sexton is Nick Saban's agent. Listen, while he 2439 01:51:58.600 --> 01:52:01.119 may take a call from the NFL to have to 2440 01:52:01.279 --> 01:52:03.159 just figure out that maze he just put us through. 2441 01:52:03.239 --> 01:52:05.840 And no, it's not common knowledge. I'll tell you. With 2442 01:52:05.960 --> 01:52:10.239 the least uh the secret that that what do you 2443 01:52:10.279 --> 01:52:14.560 call it, the least what the least step secret in 2444 01:52:14.600 --> 01:52:17.720 the South? No, that that would be BUCkies, okay, and 2445 01:52:17.840 --> 01:52:20.279 everybody else needs them. It ain't that the Peyton, Manning 2446 01:52:20.279 --> 01:52:22.119 and Ham we all know has them in Peyton, Manning 2447 01:52:22.159 --> 01:52:25.239 and Tennessee. But I haven't heard Nick Saban to Cleveland 2448 01:52:25.279 --> 01:52:28.079 and New Orleans, especially since Kellen Moore is on the 2449 01:52:28.119 --> 01:52:30.680 first year of this contract. Yeah, that's not something I 2450 01:52:30.760 --> 01:52:34.319 see and oh so, but didn't he just say because 2451 01:52:34.319 --> 01:52:36.600 the last time Nick Saban took an NFL job, it 2452 01:52:36.680 --> 01:52:39.079 was in Miami and the only time as a head coach, 2453 01:52:39.760 --> 01:52:42.520 he had an injured unfortunately Dante Culpepper. He didn't get 2454 01:52:42.560 --> 01:52:45.399 Drew Brees. Right, So with that, so you go to 2455 01:52:45.439 --> 01:52:47.039 New Orleans, who's your quarterback? It's going to be a 2456 01:52:47.119 --> 01:52:50.399 rookie Tyler Shuggy He's going to be the quarterback, right 2457 01:52:50.479 --> 01:52:53.439 more than likely, or Spencer Ratler. And if you go 2458 01:52:53.520 --> 01:52:57.039 to the other team in Cleveland, Uh, you don't want 2459 01:52:57.039 --> 01:52:58.119 to inherit that, buddy. 2460 01:52:57.960 --> 01:53:02.800 No, it's Blacko, can He Pickett, Dylan Gabriel, Schador Sanders, 2461 01:53:02.880 --> 01:53:03.640 Deshaun Watson. 2462 01:53:03.800 --> 01:53:07.199 Right, you don't want those muddied waters. You're just gonna wait. 2463 01:53:07.479 --> 01:53:10.600 Now, Well, then the other part of this arch all side, 2464 01:53:10.680 --> 01:53:13.600 like everybody around them, has said he's probably not coming out. 2465 01:53:13.520 --> 01:53:13.960 After this year. 2466 01:53:14.000 --> 01:53:15.760 He's probably gonna stick around of Texas another year. So 2467 01:53:15.800 --> 01:53:18.520 you're talking the twenty twenty seven draft. Yeah, so wait, 2468 01:53:18.600 --> 01:53:20.920 so Jimmy has them and the Browns are guys not 2469 01:53:21.079 --> 01:53:23.239 this year, but next year, I'm telling you we're gonna 2470 01:53:23.279 --> 01:53:25.439 get number one. We're gonna suck again. We're gonna get 2471 01:53:25.439 --> 01:53:26.920 the number one pick, We're can get Arch, and we're 2472 01:53:26.920 --> 01:53:29.680 gonna get Sabing. Like you know, so many dominoes have 2473 01:53:29.800 --> 01:53:31.439 to fall just right for that that happened. 2474 01:53:31.560 --> 01:53:33.319 As much I love the Cleveland fans, I'm not so 2475 01:53:33.520 --> 01:53:37.079 sure that Peyton and the group wouldn't say, Jimmy, we 2476 01:53:37.199 --> 01:53:40.000 love you. We're not telling Nick Saban to go coach 2477 01:53:40.199 --> 01:53:41.600 Arch and we don't want Arch to go. I mean 2478 01:53:41.800 --> 01:53:43.920 it gets to a point where it's like how many 2479 01:53:44.000 --> 01:53:47.319 times a you're gonna miss in Cleveland? Right? So I'm 2480 01:53:47.359 --> 01:53:49.319 sure all those relationships are true, but. 2481 01:53:50.199 --> 01:53:52.359 Like, oh, you didn't hear this? Yeah, yeah, everybody. 2482 01:53:52.840 --> 01:53:54.920 Well, here's two of us, the dude local radio here 2483 01:53:54.960 --> 01:53:56.720 and no, I had no idea and we're in the South, 2484 01:53:56.800 --> 01:54:00.319 so no idea that that was happening. So I'm great 2485 01:54:00.399 --> 01:54:02.439 on him that he's got it from authority. Yes, but 2486 01:54:02.560 --> 01:54:05.239 we do know that Nick and Jimmy Haslam and that 2487 01:54:05.319 --> 01:54:07.279 whole group and the Manning family are all pretty tight. 2488 01:54:07.439 --> 01:54:09.600 I get that, But that doesn't mean that Nick Saban 2489 01:54:09.680 --> 01:54:10.960 is going to be the head coach in either one 2490 01:54:11.000 --> 01:54:11.600 of those cities. 2491 01:54:11.880 --> 01:54:15.239 Yeah, I'll put that one at zero point. One percent 2492 01:54:15.359 --> 01:54:16.239 chance of happened now. 2493 01:54:16.399 --> 01:54:19.079 So yeah, will he fill the phone call? Probably? Will 2494 01:54:19.119 --> 01:54:22.000 he take the job? Probably not, nor should he. But 2495 01:54:22.880 --> 01:54:24.399 there'll be a long line to stand in to get 2496 01:54:24.479 --> 01:54:26.760 Nick Saven to come back and coach college or NFL 2497 01:54:27.439 --> 01:54:29.319 when this season's over, as we all know, whether he 2498 01:54:29.359 --> 01:54:31.319 takes it or not'll be whether he decides he wants 2499 01:54:31.359 --> 01:54:31.760 to work. 2500 01:54:31.640 --> 01:54:33.640 That out of all teams, like the history of the Brown, 2501 01:54:34.319 --> 01:54:36.560 you think Archie and all the Manning family gonna go 2502 01:54:36.680 --> 01:54:37.960 that's where Archie used to be. 2503 01:54:38.119 --> 01:54:40.640 And do you think that Nick Saban because he was 2504 01:54:40.800 --> 01:54:43.239 an assistant to Bill Belichick on that staff, if you're 2505 01:54:43.239 --> 01:54:46.720 going to go back to Cleveland. Really, I love the fans, 2506 01:54:46.760 --> 01:54:48.800 but I'm saying I don't think that's his priority yet 2507 01:54:48.840 --> 01:54:51.399 and it may end up being, but I don't think 2508 01:54:51.479 --> 01:54:53.560 the reason is because well I was on Belichick staff 2509 01:54:53.560 --> 01:54:55.600 in Cleveland. We got something to prove still because Bernie 2510 01:54:55.640 --> 01:54:57.479 Coozar is not there now, and we'd love to have 2511 01:54:57.560 --> 01:55:00.720 Bernie back. Boy would they ever? So Yeah, that's a 2512 01:55:01.000 --> 01:55:04.119 six that's a six degrees of separation that's too hard 2513 01:55:04.159 --> 01:55:06.560 to follow for me. So and I had no idea 2514 01:55:06.600 --> 01:55:08.159 that that was a rumor yeah. 2515 01:55:08.079 --> 01:55:13.399 Well it's not. But in closing, Colin cow heard dumbass 2516 01:55:13.439 --> 01:55:15.640 takes all right. When we return here with Sean Salisbury Show, 2517 01:55:15.680 --> 01:55:18.279 we do some bad news on one of the NFL 2518 01:55:18.399 --> 01:55:19.800 practice fields, a big injury. 2519 01:55:19.840 --> 01:55:21.119 We'll get to that here in just a second. 2520 01:55:22.159 --> 01:55:23.399 Why you're back. 2521 01:55:24.079 --> 01:55:26.119 This is the Sean Salisbury Show. 2522 01:55:26.279 --> 01:55:30.520 Get back at it. Trending news happening just in the 2523 01:55:30.600 --> 01:55:35.279 last twenty minutes up at Jets camp. Apparently Justin Fields 2524 01:55:35.479 --> 01:55:38.800 carted off the field at training camp, suffered a lower 2525 01:55:38.920 --> 01:55:43.079 leg injury at practice. The team ended that portion of 2526 01:55:43.159 --> 01:55:49.479 practice and now trending on Twitter. Tyrod Taylor because he 2527 01:55:49.640 --> 01:55:51.479 is the back end of America for the Jets. 2528 01:55:51.640 --> 01:55:54.039 It usually happens the other way around, though, and here's 2529 01:55:54.079 --> 01:55:56.880 what usually happens with Tyrod Taylor. Unfortunately, what a what 2530 01:55:57.039 --> 01:56:00.600 a great teammate and career that guy's had, considering the 2531 01:56:00.720 --> 01:56:05.359 incredible circumstances he's been in. He what happens is that 2532 01:56:05.560 --> 01:56:08.560 they have a starter and then he replaces him in 2533 01:56:08.600 --> 01:56:12.560 places pretty well, and then all of a sudden, then 2534 01:56:12.560 --> 01:56:15.199 the next year you draft a first rounder or you 2535 01:56:15.319 --> 01:56:18.399 bring in a free agent to replace him, and sometimes 2536 01:56:18.479 --> 01:56:19.960 get and then all of a sudden he's a starter 2537 01:56:20.079 --> 01:56:23.079 going into camp and then well, like in San Diego, 2538 01:56:24.119 --> 01:56:26.600 the prematurity of and they were with the San Diego 2539 01:56:26.680 --> 01:56:29.399 at the time, or maybe they were LA at the time, 2540 01:56:29.439 --> 01:56:32.800 and then all of a sudden, he's a doctor, puts 2541 01:56:32.840 --> 01:56:34.640 the needle in the wrong and he misses, and Herbert 2542 01:56:34.680 --> 01:56:36.560 gets the start, and he never gives a job back. 2543 01:56:36.880 --> 01:56:38.920 Tyrod Taylor has done. This has happened to him in 2544 01:56:39.159 --> 01:56:41.399 so many different cities where he's coming and performed well, 2545 01:56:41.680 --> 01:56:44.520 and then they draft the guy to replace him. And 2546 01:56:44.680 --> 01:56:46.800 now this usually happens him. So on the other you 2547 01:56:47.000 --> 01:56:49.600 wish anything on fields, but now he's got an opportunity 2548 01:56:49.600 --> 01:56:51.840 to lead a team. Is he's the guy now that's 2549 01:56:51.880 --> 01:56:53.960 going in for an injured guy, not to replace a guy. 2550 01:56:54.279 --> 01:56:57.199 But he's always been as reliable and when you talk 2551 01:56:57.199 --> 01:56:59.079 about best backups in the league, he's one of them. 2552 01:56:59.439 --> 01:57:01.760 And he's real. He's been in a lot of different systems. 2553 01:57:01.800 --> 01:57:05.439 He's got high football IQ and is a smart decision maker. 2554 01:57:05.960 --> 01:57:08.119 I'm not so sure that he's not a better now. 2555 01:57:08.159 --> 01:57:10.640 He's not a more explosive talent by any stretching imagination, 2556 01:57:11.000 --> 01:57:12.840 but he actually might give you a better chance to 2557 01:57:12.880 --> 01:57:15.319 win because he makes good decisions. I just hope for 2558 01:57:15.399 --> 01:57:17.520 fields his sake it's not a long injury. But when 2559 01:57:17.560 --> 01:57:19.239 that carts you off at concerns you never know. 2560 01:57:19.399 --> 01:57:21.920 Yeah, I mean, like some we've had this happen before 2561 01:57:21.920 --> 01:57:24.119 in training camp and then you find out, oh, it's 2562 01:57:24.119 --> 01:57:26.159 a spring and he'll be back next week. So you know, 2563 01:57:26.239 --> 01:57:28.560 you sometimes but carted. 2564 01:57:28.279 --> 01:57:31.079 Off, you know, alarm, it concerns you a little bit. 2565 01:57:31.239 --> 01:57:33.199 And then when they stop everything and they're like, all right. 2566 01:57:33.520 --> 01:57:35.600 Normally in the old school days, it just moved the drill, 2567 01:57:36.680 --> 01:57:38.279 that's right, right. 2568 01:57:38.920 --> 01:57:41.119 But anyway, so Tyrod Taylor is back, by the way, 2569 01:57:41.239 --> 01:57:43.800 twenty twenty one was the starter here in Houston, and 2570 01:57:43.880 --> 01:57:45.920 they drafted Davis Mills in the third round that year, 2571 01:57:45.960 --> 01:57:48.640 and it was a mix of Tyrod Taylor and Davis 2572 01:57:48.720 --> 01:57:51.760 Mills at quarterback that year, with Mark Ingram and Rex 2573 01:57:51.840 --> 01:57:52.920 Burkhead at running back. 2574 01:57:53.039 --> 01:57:55.239 Think about all the places that Tyrod Taylor's kind of 2575 01:57:55.279 --> 01:57:58.039 gone and and you've needed him at some point, and 2576 01:57:58.199 --> 01:58:00.560 here they go again. I hope, for Justin Field's sake, 2577 01:58:00.640 --> 01:58:03.840 this isn't a long injury, and for Tyrod Taylor's sake 2578 01:58:03.880 --> 01:58:05.720 that he, you know, seizes the moment and takes care 2579 01:58:05.760 --> 01:58:07.880 of his business. But you never want to hear that 2580 01:58:08.000 --> 01:58:13.199 early in practice. Yeah, I mean right right. So the 2581 01:58:13.319 --> 01:58:15.199 question for me is, and here's what's going to be asked, 2582 01:58:15.279 --> 01:58:17.800 was it a contact injury or non contact? Because if 2583 01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:20.720 it's a contact injury on your starting quarterback, then now 2584 01:58:20.760 --> 01:58:22.319 you got a question, what in the hell are you 2585 01:58:22.399 --> 01:58:25.760 guys doing on the practice field. What in the hell 2586 01:58:25.880 --> 01:58:28.159 are you doing on the practice field? They would allow 2587 01:58:28.239 --> 01:58:32.640 your starting quarterback to get hit and hurt. This tells me, Gordy, 2588 01:58:32.720 --> 01:58:34.439 this was one of those somebody got blocked into him. 2589 01:58:34.439 --> 01:58:36.399 I don't know, I'm just speculating. Or if it's a 2590 01:58:36.520 --> 01:58:41.039 non contact injury, that even concerns me more because and 2591 01:58:41.119 --> 01:58:42.920 I've had one where I shredded my knee on a 2592 01:58:42.960 --> 01:58:44.840 non and when they say lower half, I don't know 2593 01:58:44.840 --> 01:58:46.600 if that's a knee an ankle of foot, who knows, 2594 01:58:46.680 --> 01:58:49.399 but carted off like that, it just brings back cringe 2595 01:58:49.439 --> 01:58:52.399 worthy mem mine was in a game, but and one 2596 01:58:52.600 --> 01:58:54.279 was contact that I blew it out and one was 2597 01:58:54.359 --> 01:58:57.119 non contact. I hate that. But if it was a 2598 01:58:57.239 --> 01:58:59.159 contact injury, then you're wondering, why the hell are you 2599 01:58:59.279 --> 01:59:01.640 hitting my quarterback. If it was an accidental contact, then 2600 01:59:02.159 --> 01:59:04.600 somebody got too close to him, but lower half injuries 2601 01:59:04.680 --> 01:59:07.880 carted off on practice field where quarterbacks don't get hit. 2602 01:59:08.520 --> 01:59:10.760 I can only imagine what that injury could be. And 2603 01:59:10.960 --> 01:59:11.960 let's hope it's not serious. 2604 01:59:12.079 --> 01:59:13.920 Some people are already bringing up should they call it 2605 01:59:14.000 --> 01:59:16.840 Atlanta and discuss Kirk Cousins. 2606 01:59:16.880 --> 01:59:20.239 Well, that's the most logical. Now it's an expensive one, 2607 01:59:20.600 --> 01:59:23.439 but that's the most logical. What backup goes to an 2608 01:59:23.479 --> 01:59:26.479 immediate starter and actually probably makes you better. Cousins is 2609 01:59:26.479 --> 01:59:29.520 a better player than Justin Fields, feels just younger and 2610 01:59:29.600 --> 01:59:32.399 more explosive. But that would be the natural call. And 2611 01:59:32.479 --> 01:59:34.920 if you're Atlanta, you say, oh cool, we're gonna lose 2612 01:59:34.920 --> 01:59:37.159 a guy. That's a backup that we may need. But 2613 01:59:37.279 --> 01:59:39.199 now I'm gonna hold you hostage, so you're gonna give 2614 01:59:39.239 --> 01:59:40.600 me more than you wanted to give me if I'm 2615 01:59:40.600 --> 01:59:43.319 gonna go get Cousins depending on the length of Justin 2616 01:59:43.359 --> 01:59:43.960 Field's injury. 2617 01:59:44.000 --> 01:59:47.119 It's amazing how it's like we live in this heartless 2618 01:59:47.159 --> 01:59:51.600 world and social media fantasy football people are already chattering, going, Actually, 2619 01:59:51.720 --> 01:59:54.000 Tyrod Taylor gives you a better value for Garrett Wilson 2620 01:59:54.039 --> 01:59:56.600 and Breese Hall this year. Like God, like, the body's 2621 01:59:56.640 --> 01:59:58.439 not even cold. That's right, we don't even know what 2622 01:59:58.640 --> 02:00:01.359 Justin Field's injury is that they're Yeah, actually, this is 2623 02:00:01.399 --> 02:00:02.920 a better situation for fantasy owners. 2624 02:00:03.159 --> 02:00:06.640 It's a perfect example of like, oh yeah, they're not 2625 02:00:06.720 --> 02:00:08.720 even thinking about Fields. He can be headed to a 2626 02:00:08.800 --> 02:00:12.239 hospital for a observation and we're already worried about how 2627 02:00:12.279 --> 02:00:15.479 it's gonna affect your fantasy points. Yeah, yeah, that's crazy. 2628 02:00:15.520 --> 02:00:16.840 It is cruel in the sports world. 2629 02:00:16.920 --> 02:00:19.159 Man, I had a chance to talk with Jamal Charles 2630 02:00:19.239 --> 02:00:21.600 last week at at SEC Media Days. He was pumping 2631 02:00:22.319 --> 02:00:24.000 Bush's baked beans per run them. 2632 02:00:24.119 --> 02:00:26.359 Oh yeah, and I'm at the Manning push right now. 2633 02:00:26.439 --> 02:00:28.520 Don't they bushes make me? It doesn't pay for endorsement. 2634 02:00:29.000 --> 02:00:32.439 Yeah, but uh, he said, he's I said, how many 2635 02:00:32.479 --> 02:00:34.359 people tell you about fantasy because he was like the 2636 02:00:34.520 --> 02:00:36.720 top back in fantasy for years. He goes, Man, I 2637 02:00:36.800 --> 02:00:38.239 get that all the time. People are like, oh, he 2638 02:00:38.319 --> 02:00:40.119 helped me win my fantasy league and all this kind 2639 02:00:40.119 --> 02:00:41.720 of stuff. And I was like, you almost feel like 2640 02:00:41.720 --> 02:00:43.640 a piece of meat, like you're not even like they 2641 02:00:43.720 --> 02:00:45.720 forget your playing career and all this, it's just you 2642 02:00:45.800 --> 02:00:46.560 helped me when fantasy. 2643 02:00:46.680 --> 02:00:48.680 Yeah, it's not like man that run you made against 2644 02:00:48.720 --> 02:00:51.600 Pittsburgh in a playoff or where you're like it was awesome. No, dude, 2645 02:00:51.720 --> 02:00:53.880 you gave me. I got thirty points off you in 2646 02:00:53.960 --> 02:00:56.640 week four when the player doesn't even remember the fan. 2647 02:00:56.720 --> 02:00:59.640 But it's true league three hundred bucks. Yes, yes, it's 2648 02:00:59.680 --> 02:01:02.560 like I sacrifice a win for my favorite team as 2649 02:01:02.600 --> 02:01:05.239 opposed to winning the fantasy league and the twenty five 2650 02:01:05.319 --> 02:01:06.960 bucks that week. Yeah, it's amazing. 2651 02:01:08.199 --> 02:01:12.920 Fantasy is what gets fantasy is why Week five on 2652 02:01:13.039 --> 02:01:16.520 Thursday night football Jags versus Card everybody's watching. 2653 02:01:18.239 --> 02:01:20.079 That live football game is always going to make more 2654 02:01:20.119 --> 02:01:21.920 than any studio show you can put on when it 2655 02:01:21.960 --> 02:01:24.079 comes to football. It's a fact I've sat through those 2656 02:01:24.119 --> 02:01:26.560 meetings that he is. You could put Slippery Rock versus 2657 02:01:26.560 --> 02:01:29.640 Bowling Green on a Tuesday, it's going to rate better 2658 02:01:29.680 --> 02:01:32.039 than your Sports Center or most of the stuff you're 2659 02:01:32.039 --> 02:01:34.119 putting on it. Mark Shapiro used to come in and 2660 02:01:34.159 --> 02:01:36.920 talk about he goes, yep, that's why, oh, more games, 2661 02:01:37.000 --> 02:01:38.680 more game. We can fit a college football game on 2662 02:01:38.720 --> 02:01:41.880 every night program. It doesn't matter who's playing. Somehow someway. 2663 02:01:41.880 --> 02:01:43.640 If you're college football fan, you're gonna pass by and say, 2664 02:01:43.720 --> 02:01:45.239 let me stop in here for a second. Maybe we'll 2665 02:01:45.279 --> 02:01:46.880 get a good one late in the season and a 2666 02:01:46.920 --> 02:01:48.600 whole bunch of snow for two teams we're not even 2667 02:01:48.680 --> 02:01:50.520 rooting for. And in the NFL, it's the same way 2668 02:01:50.840 --> 02:01:53.239 fantasy drives it. And when you got like seventy five 2669 02:01:53.359 --> 02:01:56.439 million play in fantasy sports, there's a reason why it's 2670 02:01:56.479 --> 02:01:57.239 a billion dollars. 2671 02:01:57.760 --> 02:02:00.199 Legal sports betting. It's making it much more interesting thing 2672 02:02:00.239 --> 02:02:02.840 as well. Imagine that concept. We could get that in 2673 02:02:02.880 --> 02:02:04.439 the state of Texas so tremendous. 2674 02:02:04.439 --> 02:02:06.199 And there's places now where you can play like the 2675 02:02:06.319 --> 02:02:09.720 futures bets when you call them futures predictions, the prediction 2676 02:02:09.800 --> 02:02:12.720 mark like Calshi you can make you you can just 2677 02:02:12.800 --> 02:02:14.840 mention them, but you can actually because you're like, well, 2678 02:02:14.880 --> 02:02:17.199 how do we do this in Texas? There's ways to 2679 02:02:17.279 --> 02:02:19.039 do it, but it'd be nice if we didn't have 2680 02:02:19.159 --> 02:02:19.960 to find ways. 2681 02:02:19.960 --> 02:02:22.520 He could just walk down to the mattress Mack has 2682 02:02:22.560 --> 02:02:24.720 to drive across the Louisiana border. 2683 02:02:24.840 --> 02:02:26.840 You'll make his bets right, instead of walk across the 2684 02:02:26.840 --> 02:02:28.159 street at a bar and say, you know, what I'd 2685 02:02:28.199 --> 02:02:29.520 like to take this one, this one, and this one. 2686 02:02:29.520 --> 02:02:31.279 I can't wait till that day. We're worried about more 2687 02:02:31.319 --> 02:02:34.760 important things like marijuana. Right, you know, Damn Damn Patrick. 2688 02:02:34.800 --> 02:02:37.399 What do we do? I got a great idea legalize 2689 02:02:37.439 --> 02:02:39.840 them both. Too much money to be made. 2690 02:02:39.720 --> 02:02:42.000 All right, final hour of Sean Salisbury. Sure, come on 2691 02:02:42.000 --> 02:02:42.279 your way. 2692 02:02:42.359 --> 02:02:47.920 Next a Houston AD two, Houston an iHeart radio station. 2693 02:02:50.159 --> 02:02:51.119 And the Rocket. 2694 02:02:52.680 --> 02:02:56.000 Sports Talk seven ninety your home for your home teams 2695 02:02:56.199 --> 02:02:59.760 from the Parsons that Matchine Next Studios. 2696 02:03:02.600 --> 02:03:08.640 Salisbury, Old Very Salbury, Houston. Okay, let's do this. 2697 02:03:09.279 --> 02:03:15.479 Sewn Salisbury, Salisbury, the USC Truph, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury. 2698 02:03:15.159 --> 02:03:16.000 Dan Matthews. 2699 02:03:17.800 --> 02:03:25.319 This is the Seawan Salisbury Show, Sports Talk seven nine 2700 02:03:25.359 --> 02:03:29.039 and Chris Gordy in for Dan Matthews. We got Shawn, 2701 02:03:29.119 --> 02:03:33.279 we got Triple Lee, and we got your Houston Astros 2702 02:03:34.800 --> 02:03:38.720 American League leading Houston Astros. I can't say it enough 2703 02:03:38.760 --> 02:03:45.520 this morning. It's absolutely nuts. So at the Astros are 2704 02:03:45.640 --> 02:03:48.279 tied with the Toronto Blue Jays for the best record 2705 02:03:48.279 --> 02:03:53.800 in the American week sixty and forty two sixty wins. Now, 2706 02:03:53.880 --> 02:03:56.520 let's do the math. They've played one hundred and two games, 2707 02:03:57.720 --> 02:04:01.119 so what they played one sixty two? Sixty games remain, 2708 02:04:01.239 --> 02:04:06.239 so you got sixty wins with sixty games remaining, and 2709 02:04:06.319 --> 02:04:10.039 the Astros have won four in a row. And Sean, 2710 02:04:10.119 --> 02:04:13.239 I got a crazy stat for you. Brian McTaggart's been 2711 02:04:13.279 --> 02:04:15.319 tweeting this out. He's been tracking this the last couple 2712 02:04:15.399 --> 02:04:20.119 of games, and it continued on yesterday. The Astros have 2713 02:04:20.279 --> 02:04:23.199 allowed it again. Despite being the best record in the 2714 02:04:23.239 --> 02:04:26.359 American League. They're on a four game win streak. The 2715 02:04:26.479 --> 02:04:29.079 Astros have allowed the opposition to score the first run 2716 02:04:29.159 --> 02:04:33.279 of the game in fourteen consecutive games. That is a 2717 02:04:33.359 --> 02:04:37.199 club record. They have never done that before. The Houston 2718 02:04:37.239 --> 02:04:39.880 has not scored first in a game since the fourth 2719 02:04:39.920 --> 02:04:45.359 of July, and yet here they are first best team 2720 02:04:45.359 --> 02:04:45.880 in the Americans. 2721 02:04:45.920 --> 02:04:48.520 Now we add that stat and it even makes it 2722 02:04:48.640 --> 02:04:50.640 more amazing of what they've done and where they're at. 2723 02:04:50.760 --> 02:04:54.239 That's incredible. Like you look at the opponent, you go, hey, 2724 02:04:54.279 --> 02:04:57.000 you scored first, Oh cool, we're gonna score two. Right 2725 02:04:57.640 --> 02:05:00.319 when you're spotting somebody a lead. Can did you come 2726 02:05:00.319 --> 02:05:02.159 out of the locker room saying the other deposing teams 2727 02:05:02.239 --> 02:05:04.000 up seven and nothing to start the game all the time? 2728 02:05:04.960 --> 02:05:05.359 What what? 2729 02:05:05.600 --> 02:05:08.279 And the fact that you're not only overcoming it, but 2730 02:05:08.439 --> 02:05:11.680 you are winning those games for the majority of them, 2731 02:05:11.960 --> 02:05:15.560 pretty impressive. Fourteen straight. How often does that happen to 2732 02:05:16.199 --> 02:05:19.479 How often does that happen to anybody? I mean that 2733 02:05:19.600 --> 02:05:21.199 that's a hard stat to fathom. 2734 02:05:20.920 --> 02:05:22.720 Aggie Doug said, I think at this point, a spot 2735 02:05:22.840 --> 02:05:26.479 is just trying to challenge himself. Hey, hey, what more 2736 02:05:26.520 --> 02:05:28.680 can we do to put ourselves at a disadvantage. 2737 02:05:29.560 --> 02:05:31.840 You go out and hand up the lineup cards, say, boach, uh, 2738 02:05:32.640 --> 02:05:34.000 did we just tell you? Just put a run on 2739 02:05:34.079 --> 02:05:35.560 the board. We'll give you one. We'll spotch you. Well, 2740 02:05:35.600 --> 02:05:37.319 we're that good now, even with all these injuries, we 2741 02:05:37.359 --> 02:05:37.880 can spot you. 2742 02:05:38.760 --> 02:05:41.159 Confident in my game, I'm going to back Victor Carrottini 2743 02:05:41.239 --> 02:05:45.239 second today. That our backup catcher. That's theh Hey give 2744 02:05:45.319 --> 02:05:46.239 him a run on the board. 2745 02:05:46.279 --> 02:05:49.439 We're good. Thanks. And if that, if that's what it takes, 2746 02:05:49.479 --> 02:05:51.479 the challenge and keep winning, I'm all in. If that's 2747 02:05:51.520 --> 02:05:53.640 what they want to do, we're allowed to. It's incredible. 2748 02:05:54.680 --> 02:05:58.359 Don't give baseball any ideas because they'll find another gimmick. Hey, 2749 02:05:58.399 --> 02:06:01.399 you know what, if you've if something happened and you 2750 02:06:01.560 --> 02:06:03.520 did something or broke a rule. We get we got 2751 02:06:03.640 --> 02:06:05.479 to spot the team. It's like, you know what the 2752 02:06:06.119 --> 02:06:08.920 in the the PGA Tour and they change it this 2753 02:06:09.079 --> 02:06:11.239 year or you no longer get to you know, they 2754 02:06:11.359 --> 02:06:13.520 have the end of the year FedEx Cup Points where 2755 02:06:13.520 --> 02:06:15.079 they go to Atlanta and they play in the winner 2756 02:06:15.079 --> 02:06:17.560 gets twenty five million dollars. Yeah, but it's been in 2757 02:06:17.600 --> 02:06:19.720 the past that if you're the number one guy, you 2758 02:06:19.920 --> 02:06:23.439 go in depending on your season, like you automatically start 2759 02:06:23.520 --> 02:06:25.399 with a three stroke lead or a four stroke lead 2760 02:06:25.479 --> 02:06:28.439 going into that turn. Now everybody's equal. If you're number one, 2761 02:06:28.720 --> 02:06:30.840 it doesn't matter. So you were you were given a 2762 02:06:30.920 --> 02:06:33.680 head start. Don't give baseball any gimmick ideas because Rob 2763 02:06:33.720 --> 02:06:35.239 Bannf will say, you know what, I got a great idea. 2764 02:06:35.560 --> 02:06:37.560 If you lost by more than five runs the night 2765 02:06:37.640 --> 02:06:40.960 before the team that lost, you spot them or run 2766 02:06:41.039 --> 02:06:43.119 to start the game to make it a little more competitive. 2767 02:06:43.279 --> 02:06:46.000 We're gonna give Colorado since they're seventy four games out 2768 02:06:46.000 --> 02:06:48.279 of first place, we give them three runs to start 2769 02:06:48.319 --> 02:06:50.600 a game. Don't give Major League Baseball any gimmick ideas. 2770 02:06:50.640 --> 02:06:51.600 They'll jump all over it. 2771 02:06:51.880 --> 02:06:54.000 We do I forgot to mention this earlier in the show. 2772 02:06:54.039 --> 02:06:56.039 We do owe a big thank you to home played 2773 02:06:56.119 --> 02:07:00.920 umpire Brian Walsh yesterday who was a helping the Astros 2774 02:07:00.960 --> 02:07:04.359 out on some borderline pitches. But the one that ended 2775 02:07:04.399 --> 02:07:07.079 the game. Did you see it, Sean Josh Hater? It 2776 02:07:07.199 --> 02:07:11.359 was a full count to tell Marte, and I mean, look, 2777 02:07:11.399 --> 02:07:14.239 as soon as Hater threw it and it landed. I 2778 02:07:14.319 --> 02:07:16.079 was watching the game with Ross. We both went, I 2779 02:07:16.319 --> 02:07:19.079 walked him and then the umpire kind of slowly does 2780 02:07:19.159 --> 02:07:24.119 the steps away, rings him, wrings him up, and that's ballgame. Look. 2781 02:07:24.359 --> 02:07:28.560 Sometimes I'm not gonna look, I'm not gonna apologize because 2782 02:07:28.560 --> 02:07:31.000 the Astors have been the victim of bad calls a 2783 02:07:31.079 --> 02:07:31.680 lot this year. 2784 02:07:31.800 --> 02:07:32.640 So we'll take them. 2785 02:07:32.680 --> 02:07:34.840 Sometimes they go your way, sometimes they go your way. 2786 02:07:35.159 --> 02:07:37.199 Take them and in a year with all these injuries, 2787 02:07:37.279 --> 02:07:38.960 you'll take them anyway you can get him to win. 2788 02:07:39.479 --> 02:07:41.560 Did was it yesterday or the day before? I'm trying 2789 02:07:41.600 --> 02:07:43.720 to remember that they run together a night game to 2790 02:07:43.800 --> 02:07:47.199 day game, did Marte? I mean, did uh? Who opened it? 2791 02:07:47.319 --> 02:07:48.760 Did they open the game with a home run in 2792 02:07:48.840 --> 02:07:56.239 the first yesterday? That's right? Okay, exactly? So yeah, seven innings. Yeah, 2793 02:07:56.279 --> 02:07:58.600 he was really he was pretty brilliant yesterday and and 2794 02:07:59.039 --> 02:08:01.239 you needed it to to prevent you having to go 2795 02:08:01.359 --> 02:08:04.439 four or five different guys in a bullpen. Good good 2796 02:08:04.479 --> 02:08:05.479 on him and good on them. 2797 02:08:05.760 --> 02:08:07.720 I bet to bring this up earlier too, when we 2798 02:08:07.760 --> 02:08:10.039 were talking about the division race and the Al West 2799 02:08:10.119 --> 02:08:12.800 and where it stands right now. And yeah, the Astros 2800 02:08:12.840 --> 02:08:14.960 have a little bit of a cushion six game lead 2801 02:08:15.000 --> 02:08:18.640 on Seattle Mariners. Don't look now, but the Texas Rangers 2802 02:08:18.680 --> 02:08:21.079 have won three in a row, eight of their last ten. 2803 02:08:22.039 --> 02:08:24.560 They are five and one since the All Star break, 2804 02:08:25.399 --> 02:08:29.279 and Seattle better be worried about them. Yeah, like they 2805 02:08:29.359 --> 02:08:30.479 were worried about the Astros. 2806 02:08:30.560 --> 02:08:31.399 Oh, we're so close. 2807 02:08:31.560 --> 02:08:34.520 Almost beat the Astros, almost swept them, And now objects 2808 02:08:34.560 --> 02:08:36.560 in the rearview mirror, the Rangers are just a game 2809 02:08:36.600 --> 02:08:39.760 and a half back of Seattle. So Seattle six back 2810 02:08:39.800 --> 02:08:43.159 of the Astros, Rangers just a game and half behind them. Yeah, 2811 02:08:43.399 --> 02:08:46.359 so Rangers might start getting healthy here and they may 2812 02:08:46.479 --> 02:08:47.600 jump up in the second place. 2813 02:08:47.720 --> 02:08:51.159 And in truth, any Bruce Bochie every other year managed 2814 02:08:51.239 --> 02:08:54.920 team you know in San Francisco, didn't they go h 2815 02:08:56.319 --> 02:08:58.039 was it odd years? I can't remember a year, but 2816 02:08:58.119 --> 02:09:00.399 they win one, lose, didn't they win the next than 2817 02:09:00.520 --> 02:09:04.359 lose another win. So every other year Bruce Bochi's teams 2818 02:09:04.359 --> 02:09:07.239 were winning championships and comes here wins it the first one. 2819 02:09:07.319 --> 02:09:10.119 Last year they took a step back. Odds are to 2820 02:09:10.279 --> 02:09:13.720 me that the Texas Rangers are not going away, and 2821 02:09:14.000 --> 02:09:16.039 they can pitch, as we know their top two guys 2822 02:09:16.079 --> 02:09:18.479 with the Gram and Valdi, are pretty damn good, and 2823 02:09:18.520 --> 02:09:21.359 they're pretty deep there, and we know that they've got 2824 02:09:21.680 --> 02:09:24.119 bats that can rake if they're going good, So they 2825 02:09:24.199 --> 02:09:27.600 are a concern. Six games is nice, but Seattle, you're 2826 02:09:27.640 --> 02:09:30.159 exactly right. Those objects are closer than they may appear, 2827 02:09:30.479 --> 02:09:33.640 and hence why Also the Astros probably aren't overly comfortable 2828 02:09:33.680 --> 02:09:36.600 with the six game we saw quickly. That could dissipate if, 2829 02:09:36.680 --> 02:09:38.359 in fact, you go through a series or two where 2830 02:09:38.359 --> 02:09:39.960 you're not playing good baseball and the other one is. 2831 02:09:40.079 --> 02:09:43.199 So it's gonna be fun. I wouldn't think that this 2832 02:09:43.359 --> 02:09:46.039 division is going to be I don't think this is 2833 02:09:46.119 --> 02:09:48.079 a twelve You know you're gonna win a division by 2834 02:09:48.119 --> 02:09:50.600 twelve games. I think it'll be a bunch closer, probably 2835 02:09:50.640 --> 02:09:53.680 even closer than six games. But what a nice feeling 2836 02:09:53.720 --> 02:09:55.159 to know that when you get healthy, you got a 2837 02:09:55.199 --> 02:09:57.920 six game lead. Yeah, well this or I hope you 2838 02:09:58.000 --> 02:09:59.880 have a six game lead when you finally do get healthy. 2839 02:10:00.039 --> 02:10:02.159 The Rangers right out of the break took two out 2840 02:10:02.159 --> 02:10:04.119 of three against Detroit. I mean, that was that was 2841 02:10:04.159 --> 02:10:06.600 pretty big. They just swept the A's, which it's the 2842 02:10:06.680 --> 02:10:09.520 lowly A's, that's who the Astros begin a series with tonight. 2843 02:10:09.600 --> 02:10:11.720 But they didn't. They still beat teams they are supposed 2844 02:10:11.760 --> 02:10:12.600 to and that's important. 2845 02:10:12.720 --> 02:10:14.720 Well, look at the next six for the Rangers. They 2846 02:10:14.800 --> 02:10:17.359 get three at home against the Braves, who are i 2847 02:10:17.439 --> 02:10:20.880 mean massively under achieve, which incredible, and then they go 2848 02:10:20.960 --> 02:10:23.840 out for three against the Angels, who you know aren't great, 2849 02:10:24.359 --> 02:10:26.159 and then they go for four out in Seattle. There's 2850 02:10:26.199 --> 02:10:28.920 a chance the Rangers going in that series with Seattle 2851 02:10:29.640 --> 02:10:31.880 and they take care of business. They jump Seattle, and 2852 02:10:31.920 --> 02:10:34.239 suddenly we're talking about Seattle's not even the hunt anymore 2853 02:10:34.840 --> 02:10:36.640 and the Rangers of the team chasing the ass. 2854 02:10:36.760 --> 02:10:39.640 Right, And if you're the Astros, now you worry about 2855 02:10:39.640 --> 02:10:42.439 your own business and not paying attention to other people's schedule. 2856 02:10:42.520 --> 02:10:44.239 But in truth, as you go and lose three out 2857 02:10:44.239 --> 02:10:46.159 of four to Oakland. You're gonna lose a lot of 2858 02:10:46.199 --> 02:10:46.600 good will. 2859 02:10:46.720 --> 02:10:50.920 That's exactly right. So you have while you keep an 2860 02:10:50.920 --> 02:10:53.800 eye on It's like you're at the eighteenth t box 2861 02:10:53.880 --> 02:10:56.680 leading the golf tournament by two strokes. I would suggest 2862 02:10:56.760 --> 02:10:58.239 you look at the leaderboard to make sure what kind 2863 02:10:58.239 --> 02:11:00.439 of shot you're going to hit. And I I'm sure 2864 02:11:00.479 --> 02:11:04.239 the Astros they're resilience understanding where they are. They're not 2865 02:11:04.359 --> 02:11:06.279 taking a six game lead for granted. Hence why you 2866 02:11:06.359 --> 02:11:08.840 gotta win the ones you're supposed to, which means birdie 2867 02:11:08.880 --> 02:11:11.680 par five's, and the Astros have to do that. Those 2868 02:11:11.720 --> 02:11:13.560 are the ones where you when it becomes a moving 2869 02:11:13.640 --> 02:11:16.800 day where you extend your lead, you can't. You can't 2870 02:11:17.000 --> 02:11:19.520 split or lose series the teams you're supposed to beat, 2871 02:11:19.920 --> 02:11:21.920 and now they come home and it's pretty favorable for 2872 02:11:22.000 --> 02:11:23.920 them the next handful of games here as well. 2873 02:11:24.479 --> 02:11:27.840 It's crazy this this pitching matchup. If you know, like 2874 02:11:28.159 --> 02:11:32.000 on paper, it's Jason Alexander tonight, not the star of 2875 02:11:32.039 --> 02:11:36.239 Seinfeld going up against Luis Severino. I mean, like that 2876 02:11:36.439 --> 02:11:39.239 matchup three years ago, you'd have been like the hell 2877 02:11:39.399 --> 02:11:41.319 Oakland A's they're gonna they're gonna beat the hell out 2878 02:11:41.319 --> 02:11:43.119 of the Astros post but several Reno's got a five 2879 02:11:43.159 --> 02:11:45.920 to n era this year, three and eleven record, and 2880 02:11:46.520 --> 02:11:49.199 he's the shell of his former self. And we got 2881 02:11:49.279 --> 02:11:53.159 this dude, Jason Alexander who's just risen to the occasion 2882 02:11:53.239 --> 02:11:55.439 and pitched well when the Astros have called on him. 2883 02:11:55.520 --> 02:11:58.560 That's exactly right. So four gamer right is. 2884 02:12:00.039 --> 02:12:00.239 A game? 2885 02:12:00.319 --> 02:12:00.720 Or that game? 2886 02:12:00.760 --> 02:12:03.479 They're all night games. Okay, they are all Sunday's afternoon. 2887 02:12:03.119 --> 02:12:06.479 There you go, Okay, cool, So a chance to to 2888 02:12:06.840 --> 02:12:08.840 hell might as well go sweep another series that'd be 2889 02:12:08.960 --> 02:12:11.399 nice as well. That'd be nice, and then it doesn't 2890 02:12:11.399 --> 02:12:13.159 matter how the guy's behind your plane. Who cares? 2891 02:12:13.239 --> 02:12:15.560 I think I saw the theme tonight. They're doing Christmas 2892 02:12:15.640 --> 02:12:19.479 in July, so they're like, you can buy an Astros 2893 02:12:19.560 --> 02:12:22.600 Christmas sweater and like the giveaway is an al two 2894 02:12:22.680 --> 02:12:25.760 v A Christmas sweater, bobblehead, you. 2895 02:12:25.760 --> 02:12:29.680 Know, give me stuff. It already got us thinking we're 2896 02:12:29.720 --> 02:12:31.680 gonna be putting Christmas lights up before you have a 2897 02:12:31.720 --> 02:12:35.960 Halloween costume. That's how we do in this halfway there, yep, yep, 2898 02:12:36.359 --> 02:12:38.520 halfway to Christmas. That is wild though, because you hit 2899 02:12:38.560 --> 02:12:41.840 the skin. Once you hit August, it's full football mode 2900 02:12:41.920 --> 02:12:44.159 or rock and roll. Then it's September the weather starts, 2901 02:12:44.159 --> 02:12:46.119 so change a little bit. And then yeah, then it's 2902 02:12:46.159 --> 02:12:49.199 full Halloween mode, and then it's Thanksgiving and then this 2903 02:12:49.239 --> 02:12:51.479 Christmas and it just flies by and we'll be bitching 2904 02:12:51.520 --> 02:12:55.399 because football season is almost over. Left. 2905 02:12:56.039 --> 02:12:58.600 Well, hopefully it's a long Texans. 2906 02:12:58.880 --> 02:13:01.399 And hopefully it's a long Astros postseason as well. And 2907 02:13:01.479 --> 02:13:03.279 then you get a good jump start for the Rockets 2908 02:13:03.319 --> 02:13:06.039 and continue this really cool stuff. And then we get 2909 02:13:06.119 --> 02:13:10.079 Kelvin Sampson's basketball team and hopefully the Kevin Durant Ad 2910 02:13:10.279 --> 02:13:13.399 and it's a hell of a year for Willie Fritz 2911 02:13:13.439 --> 02:13:15.520 And so there you go. It's a good things going 2912 02:13:15.560 --> 02:13:19.399 on here in Houston, with a chance to actually win 2913 02:13:19.560 --> 02:13:22.119 conferences and win divisions in a lot of different sports, 2914 02:13:22.159 --> 02:13:23.279 which is nice.

We want 3006 02:17:12.760 --> 02:17:14.479 to just go talk about our team and get the 3007 02:17:14.520 --> 02:17:17.200 hell out of there. Whereas these other conferences are going 3008 02:17:18.200 --> 02:17:19.639 I'm going to take a shot at the sec. 3009 02:17:21.239 --> 02:17:23.559 Aren't you always shooting from down from up at the 3010 02:17:23.719 --> 02:17:26.200 at the big dog. Of course, and SEC is used 3011 02:17:26.239 --> 02:17:28.760 to this because every single year they face it and 3012 02:17:28.920 --> 02:17:31.760 this year, man even Hey, when you got the Indiana 3013 02:17:31.840 --> 02:17:36.399 Hoosiers who were great last year, Gay, don't don't misunderstanding. 3014 02:17:36.920 --> 02:17:39.639 They had a phenomenal season and Signette he's a really 3015 02:17:39.680 --> 02:17:43.319 good coach, but he's also fairly brash. But when you 3016 02:17:43.440 --> 02:17:47.000 got the Indiana well, which has been a basketball school 3017 02:17:47.040 --> 02:17:49.719 for a long time, when you got them coming out 3018 02:17:49.799 --> 02:17:53.200 saying bashing the conference or you know, testing them and 3019 02:17:53.360 --> 02:17:55.440 we know there's a method, is madness. He doesn't have 3020 02:17:55.479 --> 02:17:58.000 a problem speaking his language. He he he did it 3021 02:17:58.719 --> 02:18:00.639 on college game day a couple times last year. I 3022 02:18:00.680 --> 02:18:04.120 love his energy. But we got Indiana Hoosiers head coaches 3023 02:18:04.159 --> 02:18:06.079 telling you how bad a conference years is Gordy, that 3024 02:18:06.120 --> 02:18:08.120 you guys are a soft conference in the SEO. 3025 02:18:08.200 --> 02:18:12.319 So I mean, needless to say, and again Indiana had 3026 02:18:12.360 --> 02:18:14.559 a great season last year, but need I point out 3027 02:18:14.559 --> 02:18:17.200 Seawan he played one ranked opponent all year last year, 3028 02:18:17.200 --> 02:18:18.760 that was our highest stay and he lost by thirty. 3029 02:18:19.040 --> 02:18:20.200 How'd that playoff go? Again? 3030 02:18:20.760 --> 02:18:22.920 Yeah? I mean yeah, I lost by what got your 3031 02:18:22.959 --> 02:18:26.040 brains beat in? By Notre Dame? But like your regular season, 3032 02:18:26.079 --> 02:18:28.040 you played one ranked team and the one ranked team 3033 02:18:28.079 --> 02:18:30.680 you lost to, I mean in the sec of teams 3034 02:18:30.680 --> 02:18:33.200 playing six ranked teams and they go three and three, 3035 02:18:33.319 --> 02:18:36.000 but those three losses you kept you out. So it 3036 02:18:36.120 --> 02:18:38.319 becomes and this is where what I hate about the 3037 02:18:38.399 --> 02:18:41.959 stupid dopes in the hotel room in Dallas, the playoff 3038 02:18:42.000 --> 02:18:46.319 committee is they put too much stock into losing and 3039 02:18:46.479 --> 02:18:49.600 not enough stock into who'd you beat. If you went 3040 02:18:49.760 --> 02:18:52.040 four and two against top twenty five opponents, you beat 3041 02:18:52.239 --> 02:18:56.600 four top twenty five opponents, they're still gonna go two losses. Indiana, 3042 02:18:56.680 --> 02:18:58.920 they had one loss, but Indiana didn't play anybody. They 3043 02:18:58.920 --> 02:19:02.159 didn't test themselves, they weren't challenged all year. Still, eleven 3044 02:19:02.319 --> 02:19:05.040 is more than ten. Yeah, it's like it's like, loss, 3045 02:19:05.239 --> 02:19:06.600 we're the top twenty five teams. 3046 02:19:06.760 --> 02:19:08.760 Come on, now, Son, and then your four wins were 3047 02:19:08.799 --> 02:19:11.639 in top twenty five or at least Power Conference teams. 3048 02:19:12.040 --> 02:19:12.719 There's got to be. 3049 02:19:13.000 --> 02:19:15.760 There's no nuance now to the conversation. They're just going, well, 3050 02:19:16.200 --> 02:19:18.840 eleven is more than ten, Like you know, it's like 3051 02:19:19.000 --> 02:19:21.559 it's like we're doing count what's his name on on 3052 02:19:21.680 --> 02:19:24.000 Sesame Street, Whereas to me, you know, what we do 3053 02:19:24.079 --> 02:19:27.239 in college basketball, there is nuance. They go, Yeah, look, 3054 02:19:27.280 --> 02:19:29.239 I know Auburn lost a duke back in December, but 3055 02:19:29.319 --> 02:19:31.639 that's a quality loss. They lost on the road by four. 3056 02:19:32.000 --> 02:19:34.879 Well let's boost them up. And in basketball they do 3057 02:19:35.000 --> 02:19:38.520 quad one wins and quad two wins. God, if we 3058 02:19:38.559 --> 02:19:41.200 started doing that football, a lot of people would start 3059 02:19:41.239 --> 02:19:43.520 getting exposed on soft as schedule. 3060 02:19:43.600 --> 02:19:46.120 You are not kidding, brother, And I don't know why 3061 02:19:46.200 --> 02:19:48.399 it's not carry over to both. They're both committees, just 3062 02:19:48.440 --> 02:19:50.680 one has more teams than the other. Right, why why 3063 02:19:50.799 --> 02:19:55.799 should that change? Why shouldn't the criteria be uniformed. Yeah, 3064 02:19:56.200 --> 02:19:58.040 it doesn't matter the number of teams. It matters the 3065 02:19:58.399 --> 02:20:00.920 way you approach the opponent or way and losses. Who 3066 02:20:00.959 --> 02:20:03.639 you played, doesn't who you play and where they are 3067 02:20:04.319 --> 02:20:07.559 have to come into play. Gordy, it should and I 3068 02:20:07.639 --> 02:20:11.600 know quality losses, but if you lose to Alabama but 3069 02:20:11.799 --> 02:20:16.600 beat Tennessee Chattanooga, right, I gotta take that into account. Right. 3070 02:20:16.920 --> 02:20:19.799 Well, look, Texas is going to challenging themselves and scheduling 3071 02:20:19.840 --> 02:20:22.639 a week one game at Ohio State, the reigning national champs. 3072 02:20:22.719 --> 02:20:27.079 Yet if Texas loses that game or Texas season's over, 3073 02:20:27.159 --> 02:20:29.879 you took a loss and it's like, so, we're not 3074 02:20:29.879 --> 02:20:32.559 gonna give any credit for scheduling that game, right, and 3075 02:20:32.680 --> 02:20:34.520 it just because it almost because you must, like for 3076 02:20:34.680 --> 02:20:37.079 LSU and Brian Kelly, you must go win at Clemson 3077 02:20:37.120 --> 02:20:39.680 week one because if you don't, seasons, oh, the season 3078 02:20:39.760 --> 02:20:42.200 might be over. It's like, okay, well then you're telling 3079 02:20:42.280 --> 02:20:44.360 me I should have scheduled Old Dominion, right, you know, 3080 02:20:44.440 --> 02:20:46.040 because you're going to count that as a win. And 3081 02:20:46.120 --> 02:20:48.840 that's what Indiana did. They are getting credit. They're three 3082 02:20:48.920 --> 02:20:52.520 non conference games open the season are Old Dominion, Kennesaw State, 3083 02:20:52.559 --> 02:20:53.680 and Indiana State, and. 3084 02:20:53.719 --> 02:20:55.639 If they're not three and oh, then you should eliminate 3085 02:20:55.680 --> 02:20:56.360 them immediately. 3086 02:20:56.559 --> 02:20:59.319 Well, yeah, they'll win those, but the point being is 3087 02:20:59.719 --> 02:21:02.840 they're playing that, well, Texas is playing Ohio State, and 3088 02:21:02.959 --> 02:21:05.479 it's like this, these schedules are not created. 3089 02:21:05.159 --> 02:21:07.040 Equal and at the end of the season, I can 3090 02:21:07.079 --> 02:21:10.079 honestly say a three point loss to an Ohio State 3091 02:21:10.159 --> 02:21:14.840 team probably should hold more weight than a Kennesaw State win. Yes, Okay, 3092 02:21:14.879 --> 02:21:18.079 does that make sense? Is it should? There's got to 3093 02:21:18.239 --> 02:21:19.799 I mean, we've got to have some common sense in this. 3094 02:21:19.920 --> 02:21:21.920 But we've lost that not only in how we go 3095 02:21:22.000 --> 02:21:25.239 about sports, but obviously society we just don't. Somehow, some way, 3096 02:21:25.319 --> 02:21:27.399 common sense was lost along the way. And guess what 3097 02:21:27.920 --> 02:21:30.840 when it comes to the committee in football, we lost 3098 02:21:30.879 --> 02:21:32.040 it there too for the most part. 3099 02:21:32.120 --> 02:21:34.479 And here's the dumb part about these conferences is they 3100 02:21:34.559 --> 02:21:38.319 get so big you don't see everybody. Indiana Sean, they're 3101 02:21:38.360 --> 02:21:41.280 in the Big Ten, but they don't play Ohio State 3102 02:21:41.360 --> 02:21:44.760 or Michigan this year, which I don't get. It's like 3103 02:21:45.120 --> 02:21:47.959 what they don't get? I know, I mean, I know 3104 02:21:48.159 --> 02:21:50.319 the number of teams, but I just it's just hard 3105 02:21:50.360 --> 02:21:51.760 to fathom that. 3106 02:21:52.799 --> 02:21:54.399 It's like a couple times when you roll through like 3107 02:21:55.040 --> 02:21:57.200 was it sc maybe or was it Oregon or somebody 3108 02:21:57.639 --> 02:21:59.600 they went through and you didn't have to play Utah, 3109 02:22:00.280 --> 02:22:03.760 USC or Washington in the same year, It's like, how'd 3110 02:22:03.799 --> 02:22:06.239 you come up with that gig? When the Pac twelve 3111 02:22:06.319 --> 02:22:07.920 was in? But you know, luck of the draw. But 3112 02:22:08.399 --> 02:22:10.639 I understand the number of teams, but when you go 3113 02:22:10.719 --> 02:22:12.719 through it, hey man, did you guys we didn't play them? 3114 02:22:12.959 --> 02:22:13.120 Oh? 3115 02:22:13.479 --> 02:22:15.840 Okay, once you're going to get credit for that win 3116 02:22:15.920 --> 02:22:17.840 and you beat the fifteenth best team in a Big Ten. 3117 02:22:18.079 --> 02:22:20.959 That's like Oklahoma was complaining that, you know when they 3118 02:22:21.079 --> 02:22:23.440 when the schedules came out because they gave you know, 3119 02:22:23.479 --> 02:22:26.000 the SEC SID sixteen teams. They gave Oklahoma eight teams, 3120 02:22:26.040 --> 02:22:28.840 they gave Texas eight teams. Right, and then this year 3121 02:22:28.879 --> 02:22:31.079 the schedule stays the same, just home and away flips, 3122 02:22:31.120 --> 02:22:37.239 so you keep the same opponents. Well, poor Oklahoma got Texas, LSU, Alabama, Tennessee, 3123 02:22:38.040 --> 02:22:41.120 you know, filling the blank, South Carolina, Auburn, and Texas 3124 02:22:41.200 --> 02:22:44.280 got the other side. Well two straight years in the SEC. 3125 02:22:44.440 --> 02:22:46.719 Texas got the benefit of the drug gam right, they 3126 02:22:46.760 --> 02:22:50.440 did of the opponents. So it's just again, this is 3127 02:22:50.559 --> 02:22:53.079 the schedule. Inequity is what I call it. It is 3128 02:22:53.200 --> 02:22:56.680 not created equal across the board. Some teams are playing 3129 02:22:57.319 --> 02:23:00.040 paddy cake schedules and some teams are playing brutal. 3130 02:22:59.719 --> 02:23:02.600 Scaled and at times you're still getting credit for playing 3131 02:23:02.639 --> 02:23:03.959 a bad schedule if you win. 3132 02:23:04.479 --> 02:23:06.760 That's all again, all the committee saying this go tip 3133 02:23:06.959 --> 02:23:09.639 number of wins. No offense to SMU last year. But 3134 02:23:10.079 --> 02:23:13.319 you know, prior to getting to the ACC title game, 3135 02:23:13.360 --> 02:23:16.520 which they lost, they beat two ranked opponents all year, 3136 02:23:16.760 --> 02:23:17.600 Louisville and Pitt. 3137 02:23:18.280 --> 02:23:22.159 Let me ask you if if if and I understand 3138 02:23:22.200 --> 02:23:23.959 how the rules are set up and real quick, Gordy, 3139 02:23:24.040 --> 02:23:28.239 do you if SMU on a neutral site, just neutral 3140 02:23:28.639 --> 02:23:32.200 played l ole Miss last year or South Carolina, who 3141 02:23:32.239 --> 02:23:34.600 would you have picked in both games? Yeah? 3142 02:23:34.639 --> 02:23:37.319 I think I think the two SEC teams you probably. 3143 02:23:37.040 --> 02:23:39.079 Would have right, but you probably would have take the 3144 02:23:39.120 --> 02:23:41.239 bias out of it. You would have said, well, Jackson, Darton, 3145 02:23:41.280 --> 02:23:42.959 Ole Miss, I'll take them, and the way Lenor say, 3146 02:23:43.159 --> 02:23:45.600 you would have taken them even though SMU and Rhet 3147 02:23:45.680 --> 02:23:49.319 Lashley's team played great football. But you would have even 3148 02:23:49.360 --> 02:23:51.680 though they got in and lost the the championship and 3149 02:23:51.760 --> 02:23:58.200 got in, you would have taken Ole Miss and South Carolina. 3150 02:23:58.760 --> 02:24:00.559 You may have taken them no matter where the game 3151 02:24:00.680 --> 02:24:03.559 was being played as well a neutral site or even 3152 02:24:03.600 --> 02:24:05.680 at a home game for SMU. And that's not to 3153 02:24:06.559 --> 02:24:10.159 diminish or shrink what SMU did, but it's the common 3154 02:24:10.680 --> 02:24:13.239 sense that comes into when you put a team in. 3155 02:24:14.120 --> 02:24:16.479 Who they played and who they lost to does matter, 3156 02:24:16.520 --> 02:24:19.040 and it should come into account over Listen, I'll take 3157 02:24:20.319 --> 02:24:22.680 it's more if you take a loss to a top 3158 02:24:22.719 --> 02:24:25.840 ten team but you beat Kennesaw State, I'm putting more 3159 02:24:25.959 --> 02:24:28.600 stock into a close loss than i am a a 3160 02:24:28.680 --> 02:24:30.760 win that my fourth string team could win, I should 3161 02:24:30.760 --> 02:24:31.639 be on a committeers. 3162 02:24:31.719 --> 02:24:33.920 Can we please get you on that damn playoff committee 3163 02:24:33.920 --> 02:24:37.639 in Dallas? Because whoever these morons are that they're putting 3164 02:24:37.680 --> 02:24:40.159 in there, I couldn't believe Shoan when they showed shots 3165 02:24:40.200 --> 02:24:42.879 of them watching the games. Nobody is a note pad. Yeah, 3166 02:24:43.079 --> 02:24:46.120 nobody's taking notes, nobody's They're just sitting around. 3167 02:24:46.760 --> 02:24:49.120 What's your game? I'll volunteer. I'm in. If they want 3168 02:24:49.159 --> 02:24:50.520 me out of the committee, I'll do it. And I 3169 02:24:50.559 --> 02:24:53.040 won't even play favorites to my trojans, because if you 3170 02:24:53.079 --> 02:24:55.239 can't play defense, you don't deserve to be in there anyway. 3171 02:24:55.280 --> 02:24:58.319 So I have no problem with it putting sitting athletic directors. 3172 02:24:58.600 --> 02:24:59.920 It makes absolutely no sense. 3173 02:25:00.000 --> 02:25:03.239 I said that exactly. I asked Greg sank you that 3174 02:25:03.559 --> 02:25:07.239 last week. I literally said to him, I said, I 3175 02:25:07.360 --> 02:25:08.959 have a problem. I said, is there a problem with 3176 02:25:09.000 --> 02:25:12.120 the committee of putting athletic directors that are power for 3177 02:25:12.319 --> 02:25:15.840 conference athletic directors that are voting? And his basic answer was, 3178 02:25:16.200 --> 02:25:18.760 we hope that we've looked into it and the integrity 3179 02:25:18.799 --> 02:25:20.959 of it comes into play, and that's the answer. And 3180 02:25:21.040 --> 02:25:23.680 I understand it. But to me, there's enough bodies that 3181 02:25:23.760 --> 02:25:26.799 watch college football that get it and understand what we're 3182 02:25:26.799 --> 02:25:30.200 trying to accomplish. That a sitting athletic director at Michigan 3183 02:25:30.440 --> 02:25:32.159 or Penn State does not need to be on the 3184 02:25:32.200 --> 02:25:34.280 committee or at LSU or Southern Cal. 3185 02:25:34.559 --> 02:25:37.840 You literally have a financial implication, yes, because if X 3186 02:25:37.879 --> 02:25:40.200 amount of teams from your conference make the playoff, there's 3187 02:25:40.239 --> 02:25:40.680 a payout. 3188 02:25:40.799 --> 02:25:43.680 Oh and also a lot of times guess what, there's 3189 02:25:43.760 --> 02:25:47.280 bonuses involved too for ad all of that stuff. So yeah, 3190 02:25:47.399 --> 02:25:49.120 the payout doesn't just go to the conference or the 3191 02:25:49.200 --> 02:25:53.079 team that there's also I mean they're basically lobbyists, is 3192 02:25:53.120 --> 02:25:56.440 what they are. Ye, And you just I don't know 3193 02:25:56.559 --> 02:25:59.239 how you remain if it's down to your team and 3194 02:25:59.280 --> 02:26:01.559 somebody else? Are you conference? Aren't you going to lean 3195 02:26:01.600 --> 02:26:03.360 to your conference even though you think that maybe you 3196 02:26:03.399 --> 02:26:06.399 don't deserve it. That would be human nature and that 3197 02:26:06.479 --> 02:26:09.120 doesn't lack integrity, that's just human nature. You hope integrity 3198 02:26:09.159 --> 02:26:10.920 comes into it. Yeah, I'll volunteer. You can put me 3199 02:26:10.959 --> 02:26:13.760 on that committee tomorrow. I'm in Well, we'll send the 3200 02:26:13.840 --> 02:26:15.959 card up to to Dallas. I have a hunch like 3201 02:26:16.040 --> 02:26:18.719 Augusta and probably that's probably gonna get denied. Yeah, I mean, 3202 02:26:19.159 --> 02:26:21.399 I'm probably not going to get that top thirteen. Ye 3203 02:26:22.159 --> 02:26:26.040 all right, Although my teammate Randall McDaniel in Minnesota, I believe, 3204 02:26:26.120 --> 02:26:28.600 was on that committee last year, two years ago. Last year, 3205 02:26:28.879 --> 02:26:31.040 and you know rand and it was good. He's an 3206 02:26:31.040 --> 02:26:34.719 Arizona State guy. But and ironically he's at Arizona State win. 3207 02:26:34.799 --> 02:26:39.079 But Randall was always next watching. Can you put me 3208 02:26:39.120 --> 02:26:40.639 on your shoulders a big fellow, and I'll sit right 3209 02:26:40.680 --> 02:26:41.040 next to you. 3210 02:26:41.319 --> 02:26:43.399 I'll treat all right over return and got a couple 3211 02:26:43.440 --> 02:26:44.959 of Texans nuggets will head on right here on the 3212 02:26:45.000 --> 02:26:45.879 Shot Salzburg Show. 3213 02:26:48.719 --> 02:26:51.200 The Shawn Salisbury Show continued. 3214 02:26:53.159 --> 02:26:56.040 Trading away five time Pro Bowl left tackle Laramie Tunsel 3215 02:26:57.079 --> 02:26:59.799 and plugging in three to four new starters, searching for 3216 02:26:59.840 --> 02:27:05.079 the best configuration of five blockers to one protect quarterback 3217 02:27:05.159 --> 02:27:08.280 CJ Stroud and two established the running game. And that's 3218 02:27:08.280 --> 02:27:11.079 what's interesting about that offensive line last year. Was as 3219 02:27:11.120 --> 02:27:14.200 good as it was at times in run blocking. I 3220 02:27:14.280 --> 02:27:17.520 mean they were opening up holes for Joe Mixon left 3221 02:27:17.559 --> 02:27:21.799 and right. It was in pass protection that CJ some 3222 02:27:21.920 --> 02:27:24.520 of those downs. I mean, he's barely got the football 3223 02:27:24.559 --> 02:27:26.959 in his hands, and he's got somewhat bearing down on 3224 02:27:27.040 --> 02:27:27.680 him already. 3225 02:27:27.680 --> 02:27:30.360 Actually beating him to his setup. And think about the 3226 02:27:30.440 --> 02:27:33.760 year before, Gordy, what were they good at They ran 3227 02:27:33.840 --> 02:27:36.799 the ball decent, right right, I mean the opposite, I 3228 02:27:36.879 --> 02:27:39.120 take that back. They threw the ball really well in 3229 02:27:39.600 --> 02:27:43.159 Stroud's rookie year. And what was our talk, man, They've 3230 02:27:43.159 --> 02:27:44.879 got to give him more help running the football. They 3231 02:27:44.920 --> 02:27:46.559 got to be more physical at the point of attack. Well, 3232 02:27:46.600 --> 02:27:48.959 that's what its you go get mixing, you become more 3233 02:27:48.959 --> 02:27:50.879 physical at the point of attack. And now you can't 3234 02:27:50.959 --> 02:27:53.360 keep your quarterback upright, He chased round and then he's 3235 02:27:53.399 --> 02:27:56.639 making decisions along the way that aren't normal for him 3236 02:27:57.479 --> 02:28:00.239 to make that the year before throws it he would 3237 02:28:00.239 --> 02:28:02.680 always make ball coming out premature. Your head's on a 3238 02:28:02.719 --> 02:28:04.920 little bit of a swivel, and it becomes a cumulative 3239 02:28:04.959 --> 02:28:07.120 effect of an offensive line not getting it done the 3240 02:28:07.200 --> 02:28:10.479 right way. So yeah, man, Now the whole goal is 3241 02:28:10.520 --> 02:28:13.920 to five guys. They don't have to be superstars, just solid. 3242 02:28:14.479 --> 02:28:16.239 But now giving you the best opportunity in the run 3243 02:28:16.280 --> 02:28:17.959 game in the past game. That's the next level for 3244 02:28:18.040 --> 02:28:19.040 the offensive line here. 3245 02:28:19.239 --> 02:28:23.280 And week one you will face Brandon Fisk, Jared verse 3246 02:28:24.159 --> 02:28:28.399 poona Ford I mean Byron Young that that defensive front 3247 02:28:28.479 --> 02:28:30.520 for the Rams pretty damn strong. 3248 02:28:30.840 --> 02:28:35.719 So and if I'm right now, and we'll make our 3249 02:28:35.760 --> 02:28:39.600 predictions obviously before the season, aside from Philadelphia, I'm not 3250 02:28:39.799 --> 02:28:42.959 sure if the Rams are not the team to beat 3251 02:28:42.959 --> 02:28:45.520 in the NFC this year. They're they're they're really good. 3252 02:28:45.680 --> 02:28:48.920 I'm just now Stafford uh slow start to camp as 3253 02:28:48.959 --> 02:28:50.879 far as they're they're resting him, giving him a little 3254 02:28:50.879 --> 02:28:52.399 bit of a rest to start camp. I mean, he's 3255 02:28:52.440 --> 02:28:55.399 not fully I think I saw it was yesterday the 3256 02:28:55.520 --> 02:28:57.280 start of camp. It's just going to be working him 3257 02:28:57.360 --> 02:29:00.920 in and making sure he's ready to go. But the Rams, 3258 02:29:01.000 --> 02:29:03.879 you know who's the forty nine ers? We got Philadelphia, 3259 02:29:04.000 --> 02:29:07.000 the Washington Commanders are a team to be reckoned with, obviously. 3260 02:29:07.399 --> 02:29:09.680 So you start to look around the league and they're 3261 02:29:09.760 --> 02:29:11.879 coming out of the shoot against a component I mean 3262 02:29:11.920 --> 02:29:15.200 component up an opponent that's got good components to their team. 3263 02:29:15.879 --> 02:29:18.280 The Rams are a definite threat this year. They just are. 3264 02:29:18.440 --> 02:29:21.840 And think about it, Gordy, aren't they a drive a 3265 02:29:21.920 --> 02:29:24.159 red zone series away from getting to the super Bowl 3266 02:29:24.639 --> 02:29:27.719 against Philadelphia? Yeah? I mean they were literally that close 3267 02:29:27.799 --> 02:29:30.399 last year. So this is a team is pretty damn good, 3268 02:29:31.120 --> 02:29:34.360 and you're gonna get tested pretty early and see how 3269 02:29:34.440 --> 02:29:37.079 that happens. But there's no rest. You've got to come 3270 02:29:37.120 --> 02:29:38.840 out and you're going to have to hit them in 3271 02:29:38.879 --> 02:29:41.040 the mouth because they're front seven is pretty damn good. 3272 02:29:41.360 --> 02:29:43.319 Couldn't you say the Texans were one or two good 3273 02:29:43.399 --> 02:29:46.079 drives away from pulling it off up in Kansas? 3274 02:29:46.200 --> 02:29:49.200 They absolutely can. For a Kansas City Chiefs offen, how's 3275 02:29:49.239 --> 02:29:50.719 this for a team that went fifteen to two in 3276 02:29:50.760 --> 02:29:54.360 their offense? Was during the regular season fairly pedestrian until 3277 02:29:54.399 --> 02:29:57.200 it came time to win in one score games and winning, 3278 02:29:57.280 --> 02:29:59.719 and the Kansas City Chiefs did that. But yes they were. 3279 02:30:00.120 --> 02:30:02.319 And that's why the fine line, and I'll always say it, Gordia, 3280 02:30:02.319 --> 02:30:04.879 it never comes down to one play now kicker snap 3281 02:30:04.959 --> 02:30:06.920 hooks a field goal at the end. We always say 3282 02:30:06.959 --> 02:30:09.639 it's one play, but it's six, seven, eight plays along 3283 02:30:09.680 --> 02:30:11.440 the course of a game that you could go back 3284 02:30:11.440 --> 02:30:12.639 in the second court and say, you know what, we 3285 02:30:12.680 --> 02:30:15.319 were third and a half yard and we went forward 3286 02:30:15.360 --> 02:30:16.879 on fourth down and we couldn't move the ball a 3287 02:30:16.959 --> 02:30:19.440 half yard at the twenty seven yard line. We left 3288 02:30:19.479 --> 02:30:22.479 three points on the table and we didn't get a 3289 02:30:22.520 --> 02:30:24.520 first down on two plays running the ball for a 3290 02:30:24.520 --> 02:30:27.399 half yard. There's two plays right there, so it's never 3291 02:30:27.479 --> 02:30:29.760 the last one, but six r eight plays change it, 3292 02:30:29.840 --> 02:30:32.760 and there you have it. A series or two against 3293 02:30:32.840 --> 02:30:35.959 Kansas City. If the narrative shifts or the performance shifts, 3294 02:30:37.399 --> 02:30:39.399 the Houston Texans are moving on to what would have 3295 02:30:39.479 --> 02:30:43.239 been what the to the to the AFC Championship game. 3296 02:30:43.799 --> 02:30:46.680 As Aaron points out in his piece, he says, you 3297 02:30:46.760 --> 02:30:51.000 know Jake Andrews start at start at center in mini camp, 3298 02:30:51.040 --> 02:30:53.360 it was Jared Patterson last year starter back at center. 3299 02:30:53.920 --> 02:30:58.079 Massive rookie second round Pickianta Ersiri was at right tackle 3300 02:30:58.399 --> 02:31:01.280 ahead of Blake Fisher, who was first team offense in 3301 02:31:01.319 --> 02:31:04.760 mini camp but struggled last season. So Ersrie is in there. 3302 02:31:05.200 --> 02:31:07.159 And then a left side it was Cam Robinson and 3303 02:31:07.360 --> 02:31:10.840 Laken Tomlinson. Titus Howard, arguably the top lineman of the group, 3304 02:31:11.280 --> 02:31:14.600 lined up at his new right guard spot. This whole 3305 02:31:14.799 --> 02:31:18.200 O line being overseen by Cole Popovich, who has promoted 3306 02:31:18.239 --> 02:31:21.360 from assistant on line coach to head offensive line coach 3307 02:31:21.479 --> 02:31:21.799 this year. 3308 02:31:21.920 --> 02:31:25.440 Gordy, haven't we seen Titus Howard who came in as 3309 02:31:25.440 --> 02:31:29.879 a left tackle and he's right tackle. The only position 3310 02:31:29.920 --> 02:31:32.000 he hasn't played his center, I've seen it. Now, left guard, 3311 02:31:32.040 --> 02:31:34.159 he's played right guard, he's played left hand. Now that's 3312 02:31:34.479 --> 02:31:36.680 we talk about. Hey, give me a swing offensive lineman 3313 02:31:36.719 --> 02:31:38.559 that can do both. But that a guy wh's played 3314 02:31:38.559 --> 02:31:41.639 four positions, it'd be nice to have his right hand 3315 02:31:41.680 --> 02:31:44.639 in the dirt with a right handed stance. Sitting at 3316 02:31:44.680 --> 02:31:47.319 guard for seventeen games would be really nice to see 3317 02:31:48.200 --> 02:31:50.840 because the constant mixing and matching and puzzle piece has 3318 02:31:50.879 --> 02:31:55.280 become a problem. That's the last unit you want rotating players. 3319 02:31:55.719 --> 02:31:57.600 He may need a guy for a banged up injury 3320 02:31:57.639 --> 02:31:59.440 in the fourth quarter of a game or coming in 3321 02:31:59.479 --> 02:32:01.959 when you go jumbo personnel that you're using a tackle 3322 02:32:02.000 --> 02:32:05.799 as a tight end. But of all the positions, continuity, 3323 02:32:05.920 --> 02:32:08.399 give me those five cats up front, even more so 3324 02:32:08.520 --> 02:32:10.399 than a quarterback receiver, because you're running a curl. The 3325 02:32:10.479 --> 02:32:13.159 curls the curls a curl. But those guys in sync, 3326 02:32:13.680 --> 02:32:15.719 good of them. No pun intended with the boy band, 3327 02:32:15.920 --> 02:32:18.440 but if you're that in sync, you'll have a chance. 3328 02:32:18.559 --> 02:32:21.040 So it'd be nice to see the continuity where it's 3329 02:32:21.079 --> 02:32:23.559 not mix and match for twelve it'd be like having 3330 02:32:23.559 --> 02:32:25.680 one hundred and fifty lineups in baseball. Now, if you 3331 02:32:25.719 --> 02:32:27.680 can get the same result Joe Spotty gets, I'm in. 3332 02:32:28.399 --> 02:32:31.040 But that's not usually the case. With an offensive line 3333 02:32:31.079 --> 02:32:34.040 that's constantly shuffling people. You got to get settled in 3334 02:32:34.159 --> 02:32:36.319 up there, because when the offensive line on any team 3335 02:32:36.920 --> 02:32:39.520 is a bell cow for you, the rest of the 3336 02:32:39.559 --> 02:32:42.399 team's better. And it's just a different attitude among players. 3337 02:32:42.559 --> 02:32:44.799 I've been on teams with both, and the teams with 3338 02:32:44.879 --> 02:32:47.840 good offensive lines set a bigger tone than anybody would 3339 02:32:47.840 --> 02:32:49.600 have on the perimeter. Doesn't matter who the quarterback of 3340 02:32:49.600 --> 02:32:53.799 the wide receiver is, just don't get him killed out there. 3341 02:32:54.559 --> 02:32:58.600 One more Texans note ibacker Christian Harris not practicing but 3342 02:32:58.760 --> 02:33:01.399 active as team rans some up to get started at camp. 3343 02:33:01.719 --> 02:33:04.479 Missed the majority of last season. Getting Christian Harris back 3344 02:33:04.520 --> 02:33:08.520 healthy with the addition of EJ. Speedback there, I think 3345 02:33:08.600 --> 02:33:10.159 this lineback and core can be much better. 3346 02:33:10.159 --> 02:33:12.520 That because you already know you're going to pressure up front. 3347 02:33:12.600 --> 02:33:16.440 You've got bookend guys. Linebackers can run and they're nasty, 3348 02:33:16.799 --> 02:33:18.639 and it's as good a young secondary, and it's a 3349 02:33:18.680 --> 02:33:21.479 top five, top three secondary in the league. That defense 3350 02:33:21.520 --> 02:33:23.159 will be the tone setter. Now, you just need the 3351 02:33:23.239 --> 02:33:26.239 offensive line to match their physicality. The rest will take 3352 02:33:26.280 --> 02:33:27.840 care of itself because he got some backs, so that 3353 02:33:27.840 --> 02:33:31.399 they're going to expect you to be physical upfront, because hell, 3354 02:33:31.479 --> 02:33:34.200 the two most physical guys on the team offensively may 3355 02:33:34.360 --> 02:33:36.200 very well be your number one and two running back. 3356 02:33:36.440 --> 02:33:39.760 Offensive line needs to match their intensity and physicality if 3357 02:33:39.760 --> 02:33:41.120 they're going to get where they want to go, and 3358 02:33:41.200 --> 02:33:42.840 that's not just to a divisional game. 3359 02:33:43.680 --> 02:33:46.280 When we come back.

And you obviously know how close Sandler and 3374 02:34:26.680 --> 02:34:29.719 Farley were, you know, but to do that, and the 3375 02:34:29.840 --> 02:34:32.920 success of both movies, and the fact that we probably 3376 02:34:32.959 --> 02:34:35.360 are looking for a Tommy Boy too, but you don't 3377 02:34:35.360 --> 02:34:37.840 try to emulate finally on that, you can't do that. 3378 02:34:37.959 --> 02:34:40.239 Matter of fact, I don't think Sandler ever would for 3379 02:34:40.360 --> 02:34:41.200 that very reason. 3380 02:34:42.120 --> 02:34:46.079 Well, I heard there was a sailor said recently they 3381 02:34:46.120 --> 02:34:48.360 had a script for Happy Gilmore two that they had 3382 02:34:48.559 --> 02:34:50.680 been in the works for a while, and it was 3383 02:34:50.719 --> 02:34:53.159 going to be a spin off of It was going 3384 02:34:53.239 --> 02:34:56.879 to be Chubbs played by Carl Weathers, Right, his who 3385 02:34:57.040 --> 02:34:59.559 dies in the first one, Right, but he makes appearances 3386 02:34:59.600 --> 02:35:02.200 to Happy from Heaven. Right, It was gonna be Chubbs's 3387 02:35:02.319 --> 02:35:05.079 son is now a PGAT golfer and he wants revenge 3388 02:35:05.120 --> 02:35:06.879 on Happy Gilmore for killing his dad. 3389 02:35:07.000 --> 02:35:08.840 Oh okay, And there was gonna be this whole. 3390 02:35:08.719 --> 02:35:11.159 Storyline, and it was gonna be Carl Weather's appearing from 3391 02:35:11.200 --> 02:35:14.200 Heaven and all this. Well, when Carl Weathers died they 3392 02:35:14.239 --> 02:35:16.520 had to scrap that whole storyline. They're like, well, we can't. 3393 02:35:16.559 --> 02:35:18.239 What are we gonna do now we don't have Chubbs 3394 02:35:18.319 --> 02:35:19.239 it's exactly right. 3395 02:35:19.399 --> 02:35:22.319 So yeah, but I would imagine the script's final was 3396 02:35:22.360 --> 02:35:25.200 talking to Swartzon about that too. They've been at work 3397 02:35:25.239 --> 02:35:26.959 for a long time and he finally got talked into 3398 02:35:27.000 --> 02:35:30.959 it because nothing's passing through the Happy Madison group unless 3399 02:35:31.520 --> 02:35:34.760 the big Man decides that we'll do a sequel, yeah, 3400 02:35:34.840 --> 02:35:36.600 or we'll do another one, or we'll do a second one. 3401 02:35:36.639 --> 02:35:39.319 And I'm glad he signed a few years. 3402 02:35:39.479 --> 02:35:41.799 It was like a ten movie deal that. 3403 02:35:42.639 --> 02:35:46.000 I told you, Gordy dry Break. That's a He's a 3404 02:35:46.120 --> 02:35:49.600 cash cow for them. He always has been, because it's 3405 02:35:49.719 --> 02:35:51.040 at the back end of the mood, you know, all 3406 02:35:51.079 --> 02:35:54.000 the the redo's and the points and the stuff they 3407 02:35:54.079 --> 02:35:57.920 get and the video all and Netflix. Netflix was the perfect, 3408 02:35:59.360 --> 02:36:02.040 the perfect after all the COVID stuff and stuff for 3409 02:36:02.159 --> 02:36:04.600 Sandler and their group to go into because they pump 3410 02:36:04.680 --> 02:36:06.840 them out and dude, they're walking around there. All those 3411 02:36:06.879 --> 02:36:10.360 guys are such talented riders, you know. Swardson's always telling me, man, 3412 02:36:10.440 --> 02:36:12.200 I put this on Sandler's desk, so we got this. Hey, 3413 02:36:12.239 --> 02:36:13.760 I want you to write this part of this. Can 3414 02:36:13.840 --> 02:36:15.840 you do that? I Mean, it's just constant and it's 3415 02:36:15.920 --> 02:36:19.319 like it's organized chaos. Around there, but when they finally 3416 02:36:19.360 --> 02:36:21.280 get it all on paper, it ends up being really good. 3417 02:36:21.360 --> 02:36:22.760 So they had I can't wait to see. 3418 02:36:22.559 --> 02:36:28.719 This Sandlor with the movie deals, they have, Stranger Things, Narcos, Daredevil, Yeah, 3419 02:36:28.760 --> 02:36:29.840 Netflix doing pretty good. 3420 02:36:30.239 --> 02:36:32.159 Yeah, they're doing all right. Yeah. And there's a big 3421 02:36:32.959 --> 02:36:34.840 one of the bigger officers in there, I'm sure is 3422 02:36:34.959 --> 02:36:38.520 the guy who's pumping out Happy Gilmore. And just as 3423 02:36:38.719 --> 02:36:40.719 one of us, you're like, oh, that's Sandler. He's probably 3424 02:36:40.760 --> 02:36:42.879 got a polo shirt on and cargo pants ready to 3425 02:36:42.879 --> 02:36:46.239 go play hoops today to celebrate the release of Happy Gilmore. 3426 02:36:46.639 --> 02:36:49.639 And I wish him luck and hopefully after this clears, 3427 02:36:49.680 --> 02:36:51.440 we can get him on, you know, because he's doing 3428 02:36:51.479 --> 02:36:53.760 the whole car wash, get him on to kind of 3429 02:36:53.799 --> 02:36:56.600 talk about the post stuff because he's one of the 3430 02:36:56.680 --> 02:36:58.959 all time best, and I know that this was something 3431 02:36:59.000 --> 02:37:01.360 that meant a lot to him thirty years into it. 3432 02:37:01.399 --> 02:37:03.399 Hopefully it'll have the same success as the first one. 3433 02:37:03.600 --> 02:37:05.680 Sean Salisburn is one of the all time best.
