00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:16.160
<v Speaker 3>What's going on? I am starting am I'm resurrecting. Bring

6
00:00:16.239 --> 00:00:21.000
<v Speaker 3>professional baseball to Orlando. Is at the press conference yesterday

7
00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:25.600
<v Speaker 3>where they introduced Barry Larkin as the new frontman for

8
00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:30.039
<v Speaker 3>the Pat Williams effort to bring baseball to Orlando. I

9
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:33.119
<v Speaker 3>gotta tell you, Barry Lark and the guy's a Hall

10
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:37.479
<v Speaker 3>of Famer. He has already talked to Ron matt Manford,

11
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:43.079
<v Speaker 3>the commissioner of Major League Baseball, and they they've got

12
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:46.600
<v Speaker 3>some financing already. They've got five hundred million dollars in

13
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:52.960
<v Speaker 3>commitment for this baseball effort, according to the spokespeople over there,

14
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:55.640
<v Speaker 3>and Barry Larkin as the front man, Guys, we need

15
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:56.560
<v Speaker 3>to get on board with this.

16
00:00:56.880 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 2>Hold on, are you talking about an additional team? We're

17
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.159
<v Speaker 2>getting an exist team to relocate here. Yeah, which one?

18
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.079
<v Speaker 3>Either Either there's gonna be expansion. It's the same thing.

19
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:09.519
<v Speaker 3>There's gonna be expansion in the next few years. There's

20
00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:11.760
<v Speaker 3>gonna be a team out west. Everybody that's gonna go

21
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:15.200
<v Speaker 3>to Vegas and there's gonna be a team in the East,

22
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:19.799
<v Speaker 3>and that if there's you know, if there's a relocation

23
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:22.480
<v Speaker 3>like the Tampa Bay Rays. They're still fighting over in

24
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:28.359
<v Speaker 3>Tampa to get their stadium built in Saint Pete. So hey, Wed,

25
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:30.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm just saying this, all right, we need to get

26
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.680
<v Speaker 3>on board with this. I've looked at all these statistics.

27
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:38.519
<v Speaker 3>Orlando's the fourteenth biggest TV market in the country. We

28
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:43.400
<v Speaker 3>are bigger than a bunch of other baseball markets Denver, Miami, Cleveland,

29
00:01:43.519 --> 00:01:48.400
<v Speaker 3>Saint Louis, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Cincinnati. We're bigger than

30
00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:51.719
<v Speaker 3>all of those right in media well yea. And we're

31
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:56.799
<v Speaker 3>certainly bigger than Las Vegas. Las Vegas is the fortiest

32
00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:00.879
<v Speaker 3>ranked TV market in the country. We're four team Yet

33
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:04.599
<v Speaker 3>Vegas has football, they have hockey, They're about to get

34
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:09.199
<v Speaker 3>baseball with the a's relocation. The NBA wants to put

35
00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:11.680
<v Speaker 3>a team in Vegas as well. So Vegas is big

36
00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:15.080
<v Speaker 3>enough to have four teams, and we only have one

37
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.759
<v Speaker 3>major professional sports team in Orlando. And it's good that

38
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:21.719
<v Speaker 3>we have MLS, but I'm not counting down among the

39
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:25.599
<v Speaker 3>big four sports leagues in America. You know what the

40
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:30.199
<v Speaker 3>difference is, Vegas has leaders that go after sports teams.

41
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.800
<v Speaker 3>We have leaders that go after Shriners conventions. That's the difference.

42
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:37.319
<v Speaker 2>Well, you kind of took the words in the thought

43
00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:40.800
<v Speaker 2>process out of my mouth. The obvious answer is tell

44
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:43.479
<v Speaker 2>the Rais organization, Hey, we have the financing. We will

45
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.199
<v Speaker 2>build you a stadium here. Commit to this and let's

46
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:48.639
<v Speaker 2>get this done. Then I'll be on board. You asked

47
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:50.560
<v Speaker 2>us to get on board, now we need to back it.

48
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:52.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm not getting on board just this morning. It's not

49
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:54.599
<v Speaker 2>going to work. If the ras are still over there

50
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:56.240
<v Speaker 2>and you're trying to get a team here, they're not

51
00:02:56.240 --> 00:03:03.319
<v Speaker 2>going to let that happen. They can't fill their stadium much. Bulldog,

52
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Come on, be realistic here.

53
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:13.479
<v Speaker 3>Where are two completely different markets. It's like LA has

54
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:18.199
<v Speaker 3>three different teams. It's different markets.

55
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:20.520
<v Speaker 2>They've ten times of population is us.

56
00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:28.639
<v Speaker 3>I'm just telling you, Okay, San Francisco, for the longest

57
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:30.960
<v Speaker 3>time they had the A's and the Giants. They're not

58
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:33.080
<v Speaker 3>ten times bigger than US.

59
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:36.159
<v Speaker 1>Had don't have any more. Just I say, just tap

60
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:37.199
<v Speaker 1>the brakes on this one.

61
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:38.240
<v Speaker 3>Dog, you go with it.

62
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:39.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm holding back.

63
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:43.360
<v Speaker 3>That's the problem. You guys are like the politicians in

64
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.560
<v Speaker 3>the city. Oh, let's tap the break. No, let's go

65
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:47.240
<v Speaker 3>after it.

66
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:50.080
<v Speaker 2>How about that. I just told you what I I

67
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:52.400
<v Speaker 2>My opinion is to Green like this. If they can

68
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:54.680
<v Speaker 2>make that happening, yeah, let's go for it. Hey, bulldog,

69
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:58.159
<v Speaker 2>I see that the Magic have had to reschedule three

70
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:01.520
<v Speaker 2>remaining regular season home games. Did you see this story?

71
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:05.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, because of the the LA Fire. They had to

72
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:08.400
<v Speaker 3>obviously had to post boat some games because of the

73
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 3>LA Fires. So yeah, everybody's it's not just the Magic,

74
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:13.199
<v Speaker 3>other teams are having to redo.

75
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was also the winter storms in Atlanta and

76
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:19.319
<v Speaker 2>New Orleans through monkey wrenches into the schedule as well.

77
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:22.600
<v Speaker 2>So if you had had gate tickets for the games

78
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:27.680
<v Speaker 2>on March twelfth, or March seventeenth, or April sixth, they

79
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 2>all have new dates.

80
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.879
<v Speaker 3>Now. Yeah, the Magic, by the way, are played tonight

81
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:36.519
<v Speaker 3>on the road in Portland. Portland, of course, came to

82
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Orlando beat them last week, and the Magic need to

83
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:41.759
<v Speaker 3>go out there and beat a Portland team that's not

84
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:42.399
<v Speaker 3>very good.

85
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:44.759
<v Speaker 1>And speaking of the Magic, just so you guys know,

86
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to be at a Magic watch party this Saturday,

00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:07.759
<v Speaker 2>before we let you go, did you see the high

94
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:11.279
<v Speaker 2>school controversy brewing at one of the high school powerhouse

95
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:12.279
<v Speaker 2>teams in the country.

96
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:13.360
<v Speaker 3>No.

97
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:18.639
<v Speaker 2>St. John Bosco Bosco out in uh in California.

98
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:21.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I've heard of at high school.

99
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:27.399
<v Speaker 2>Their longtime coach Jason Nagro has been accused of embezzlement. Apparently,

100
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:29.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, the players are getting rich so he wants

101
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:32.160
<v Speaker 2>some of that action too. And keep an eye on

102
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:34.600
<v Speaker 2>this one, dude.

104
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.600
<v Speaker 3>Florida who are up at because they get like a

105
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:45.240
<v Speaker 3>five thousand dollars stipend the coach football, right, and their

106
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:48.240
<v Speaker 3>players are making more in niow money than they're making

107
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:49.399
<v Speaker 3>the coach to tea right.

108
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, take a look into this one where there's smoke.

109
00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:55.079
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm not saying the guy's guilty, but if

110
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:58.759
