Speaker 2 (00:26):
I had my tacos every Tuesday.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
It's the only good fast food deal I've ever found,
two tacos for five bucks at He'll pull your.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Local hard to find deals these days. I know, nice.
I'm happy for you.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Every other fast food place is like fifteen bucks. Happy
for Rich twenty bucks. Let's hear your first time. I'm
the greatest. I'm the greatest thing. And then I'll have
more Tonight for white people Taco night. No, I hate
white people Taco night.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Love that night.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
I'm really really torn right now, lying naked on the floor.
I'm like Natalie and Brulia. I'm like Creed staff of Creed.
I'm torn torn. I'm torn because I'm an Al East fan.
I'm a Yankees fan, and I can't be the only
guy that feels this way. So I don't like the
Blue Jays.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
The Yankees lose. Yankees I love that. Yeah, that was great.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
They are a great and scrappy team. So I don't
hate on their you know, game of baseball and how
they play the game. I just don't like them as
a Yankees fan. But then again, the Dodgers beat the Yankees.
But I also live in La So I am so
torn right now, and I'm wondering on behalf of everybody.
Should I be leaning towards the Blue Jays because the

(01:36):
Dodgers beat the Yankees last year this year? Yeah, I know,
but the Dodgers are so good that maybe they need
to be humbled like the Iron Chic.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Maybe it's the v Jay's time.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Maybe you'll loom for the underdog because they are the
underdogs in this series. You know, maybe we root for
our our maple slurpin, poutine love and floppyheaded hockey loving Canadians.
You know, maybe we root for the Blue Jays. I
am so torn right now because they're both hateable. And
George Springer, you know, he's a former astro. I wasn't

(02:08):
a big fan of that guy either, but he had
a huge moment last night. I can only tip my
Yankee hat to that moment, it was so clutched. I'm
so torn. I'm a ball of emotions, mixed emotions here
on the show. I mean, grab your Tim Horton's, grab
some cheesys or ketchup chips, and I say root for
the Blue.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Jays if i'm you.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
However, I think the factor here is a man that
was the hero last night.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
George Springer.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
I said to Danny and Big MIKEU runs his place,
who were both big Dodgers fans.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
I go, you guys over this whole.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
George Springer was on the Astros like eight years ago
and cheating in the garbage cans. And I know Al
Twovey's the face of that, but George Springer was part.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Of the core of that team. Nobody forgot about it.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
I mean, does that still hold the layer tea where
it's like Springer against the Dodgers.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
He's got one of the most punishable faces in all
of baseball.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
I think we always will. Yeah, he definitely does.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
But we also have to acknowledge the fact that when
it comes to clutch in big moments in postseason, he's
one of those names that can't be left out of
the mix. He's come through too many times, and you
got to give him his prompts. But you could also
say the Mariners, not that they kind of blew it,
but knowing that George Springer is so clutch, is it
automatic that you pitched to the guy? And not only

(03:21):
do you pitch to the guy with an open base,
it's the same guy that faced them the night before
when they had their relief pitcher. They had Munjos on
the bench ready to go. So it's like, man, did
they blow that? Was that bad management? Or did just
spring or come through? And that's the end of the game.

(03:41):
And that's just how it is. You know, how do
you look at that again? When I say I'm torn,
I am so torn because I was surprised they pitched
to him in that moment they left. I think it
was left a high sinker right there, right there for
him to tee off on. And you know he did it.
You got to give him credit for that, But still,
why did they pitch to him? Why did they leave
bizarrero in there? BIZARREO faced this dude twice already. That

(04:05):
was bizarre Tho, No, but bizarre. It was bizarre though.
You know, you got to making moves and Springer already
knew his stuff. He already saw it the past few days,
so that could have been a mistake in itself, but
he's still capitalized on it. So there's a couple of

(04:26):
layers here, layers to George Springer put some respect on
his name. But is it in your mind still a
cheating name that got away with something? Because and did
that Aroners just blowing or did he win it? Like,
how do you see this? That Astros team? You taste
it's still a bad taste in your mouth from anyone
affiliated with that Astros team. And you're a Yankees fan, Danny,
you and people around here at Fox Sports and live

(04:47):
in l A or Dodgers fan.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
So the two.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
Teams, the two teams that I guess felt the wrath
of that Astro's team the most were you two. So
you tell me are you mad? Because to me, George
spring is a blue jay, that's the past, ancient history.
He's proven he's a star. Or you still butt her
at George Springer. Yeah, I don't think mad or but
hurts the right term. It's just like a bad taste

(05:12):
that's left in your mouth.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Is it a breakup that you're not over type feeling
like it was.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
More of like what could have been, you know, had
that not gone down the way it did.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Do you feel like he doesn't deserve this.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
No, I feel like he deserved to be punished, as
did his teammates back then, and they never had to
serve any sort of punishment, and so that's what leaves
the bad taste.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
They got away. Mike Scott freees Mike Scott.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
He's a former and like Covino said, you got to
give the guy respect. He's he's a great clutch player.
He keeps proving that. But dating back to that cheating
ass Stros team, that's that's never risks for us. That's
that's never gonna go away. We're never gonna forget that time.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
All of these things are true time. It's just a
matter of what what ways stronger in your heart?

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Could you know?

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Enough time pass while fans forget because fans get older,
fans die, young fans are born, like, there's gonna be
a time where you just look back to that is
never you're trying to race like something that actually happened.
I'm never gonna forget. Doesn't go away. It's in the books.
Everybody knows. Everyone that was alive knows and even people
who are still young, your little son about this. It'll

(06:20):
be a little note but great because my son who's
five and his little t ball buddies. I guarantee you
as they become teenagers and twenty year olds, none of
them are gonna be like yeah, like El two in
Springer and the cheating Astros, that's gonna be just a
story to them and maybe a highlight man, maybe we will.
They banging on trash cans like they won't even care.
So I'm saying he teate off on that sinker so hard.
I wouldn't be surprised if he knew what Pitt was

(06:41):
coming last night. You know, there's so many ways to
look at this, but I'm really not Yeah, they were.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Tapping on maple jugs.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
You know.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
I think Big Mike, who runs this place, he has
tons of wisdom. I actually do agree with him when
I think of the cheating astros George Springer, for as
clutch as he always was with that team, he isn't
the guy I think of.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
It's Altuvey.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
I think what he did last night was big for
the Blue Jays, and I sort of associate him now,
is hey He's a big moment guy, and he proved
it again with Toronto. If he beats the Dodgers in
the World Series, meaning if Springer is an influential player,
gets a couple of base hits or home runs in
key spots and they somehow upset the Dodgers. Is the

(07:21):
the thought of like, well Springer was, I mean, he
was a cheater and he knew it was coming.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
Is that in the past? Do we does this look
like a child?

Speaker 3 (07:28):
How do those I was gonna say, Rich, how do
those two things cancel each other out there?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
They do what it does for different seasons. It's different teams.
What have you done for me lately? Do do doo
doo doo? Dude?

Speaker 1 (07:40):
It doesn't change the fact there are two separate events.
He had a big moment last night. He was also
part of a cheating team. Although I don't really make
him the face of that organization. I look at Al
Tuvay as that guy. But I also think in the
same breath that it was a bad move pitching to
the guy. I'm not saying you walk them, but you
pitch around him. You don't lay a meat balls. Your
mom would say, Rich, right in his zone after he's

(08:03):
senior sinker two days in a row. I think that
was a bad rookie mistake last night, and the Blue
Jays reaped all the benefits. The crowd erupted, and you
have a heartbroken Seattle team and fan base out there
that deserved a little more than that. Man, I think
that's a tough way to lose. You had the win,
you had it right there in front of you, and
you heard the screams and you heard the emotion in

(08:25):
the locker room afterward.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
It's not ai, it's not fake.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
But when you see the Mariners being interviewed, you hear
dudes moaning in sorrow and in heartbreak. In the locker room,
you hearn men. You see cal Rowney, who had the
most magical season maybe of all time, you see him
in tears because it hurts so much, all because you

(08:51):
pitched to George Springer. I'm not sure that was the
best mode, but he came through. Let me let me
be trivia boy for a second. Sure with that home run,
Your dude, George Springer, you love him, Danny, you love him.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
Comino.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
George Springer is now tied for third all time in
postseason home runs. Can you round out the top five
off the top of the dome and throw a couple names.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Bernie B. Williams is in there. Bernie's number five. Derek
Jeeters got to be in.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Peter just misses the top five. Oh he does, Yeah,
number five, Bernie with twenty two. Springer has twenty three,
so he's now tied with Big Poppy.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Big Poppy not on the list. Oh okay, well how
about you just tell me L two Vey is on
the list and Manny Ramirez number one, Many has twenty
Manny has twenty nine, Al tuoves twenty seven, and then
Kyle Schwarber tied with and Springer have twenty three.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
That's incredible, incredible too, Astro. It's easy to hit twenty three.
And when you know a pitch is coming at least
twenty two of them, you know what's or juice out
of your mind? Yeah, but you know at the same time,
I again, this is why I'm torn, Dan Byer. People
come here sometimes for the answers. I'm really saying, I
don't know how to feel because he came through in

(10:08):
a really big moment that was as clutch as it gets, right,
So I want to hate on him, But what I
saw was impressive, and I love how he handled himself
in the post game when he immediately and again their
media trained and he's been there, done that, and he's
very polished in the postseason. But everything he said was
dead on awesome. I mean, put the country too. He
thanked the country. He had his teammates first. He put

(10:30):
you know when he said he thinks about the at bat,
he thinks about the players that got on base to
allow him to do that. He put his team before
himself every time he was interviewed. So it makes him
that much more likable. Or he could say he has
to be that guy because everybody sort of hates him
from the Astros days. It was a big moment. I'm
very torn, and as a Yankees fan, I'm especially torn.

(10:52):
What are your thoughts? It was pretty awesome to see
and pretty awesome to hear the Blue Jays fans erupt,
even though I'm a Yankees fan.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
I didn't have a dog in the fight last night,
and I don't have a dog in the fight. You
usually have dog fights, Michael two thousands. No, No, I
did not completely derailed that. I didn't I wasn't cheering
for anyone last night. However, I also can't stand it
when people take sports and try to compare it to

(11:19):
real life, because I think it's probably better in life
sometimes to just forget something, to forgive something. It's not
the case in sports because sports is usually a.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Small amount of time.

Speaker 5 (11:30):
There's a small amount of time in George Springer's life
that he's going to spend as a professional baseball player.
But it's that portion, that cheating scandal that I think
does label you and continue to label you. He went
through I think did he have a stuttering problem? He had,
you know, a speech issue that he has overcome. You

(11:51):
mentioned his speech last night in speaking Everybody loves him now,
and it's easy to say that was in the past,
but they the players never punished he Altuve and others,
And to me, I just I can't get over it.
I can't get past it. And it's not different than
a steroid situation or someone else. So if you have

(12:11):
issues with those guys, I still think that you should
have an issue with someone like Springer.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Yeah, you can't erase the past and sports different there
As fans, we are exactly fanatical, right, like this is
not like I forgive my buddy for doing something dumb,
or you know, I forgive my the girl i'm dating for, you.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Know whatever, that's different.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
I agree, there's something about sports you're fan, there's a
different level of like I don't have to forgive these
people like that, like.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
Your uncle that was drunk a Thanksgiving or something.

Speaker 5 (12:38):
Sure, and you know something is something. As somebody cuts
you off in traffic, hay, probably better just to let
it go. And as you said, you could take it
with family issues. Hey, if this neighbor's been a jerk
for so long, maybe it's just better for your own
life to Yeah, yeah, just move on, not worry about it.
But that's where sports in real life aren't the same.
And I think that's I understand why people who were
against the Astros and against L two and George Springer

(13:01):
probably didn't celebrate last night.

Speaker 6 (13:02):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
It also is easy for me as a Mets fan
to be like, guys, get over it. Who cares?

Speaker 1 (13:07):
But I promise you that if the Astros got in
the way of the Mets, had had my Mets lost
to the Astros in the World Series in twenty seventeen,
I'm sure I would be singing a different tune. Danny
g and if the Astros beat the Yankees, and I
was a Yankees fan along the way, I'm only like,
who cares because it didn't affect me, And unfortunately that's
how so many people feel. Right, if it doesn't affect me,

(13:28):
it doesn't matter. And it wasn't like an alleged thing.
Everybody knows what happened. I mean, it's factual. We all
saw it, we all heard it, we all witnessed it.
And by the way, Dan Buyer a great point. It
does make George Springer a little more likable too. He
overcame his stutter and became the spokesperson for the Stuttering
Association for the Young, So giving back to the kids,

(13:49):
stepping up in big moments, putting his teammates first, He's.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Sort of he should have stuttered by saying, I'm saying
look at it boo. That's great about that story about him.
But like Bayer said, these guys never came out and
admitted any wrongdoing. They never got punished. And we live
in a society, especially in sports, where we love to
see a comeback. We loved even your guy Pettit.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
What did he do? He handled things the right way.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
This is why I did it, and we forgave him
and those guys, And like Bayer said, this is kind
of like the steroids issue because we do not forget.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
We're like elephants with sports. That is true, and so
I want to like him. They didn't take enough accountability. Yeah,
and it is hard. I wanted to chair last night.
I thought that was a great moment, but in the
back of my mind, I kept thinking, God, I can't
get over it.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
But and I don't want to be like that, but
I couldn't help it.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
So are we cheering for the Blue Jays or the Dodgers?
If the Mariners ended up winning, you knew the entire
country was rooting for the Mariners, unless, of course you're
a Dodgers fan. That's just the fact. That's just how
it was. Because it was like, this is going to
be their first time ever. This is a nice team,
a great story. However, this is the Blue Jay's first
time back in the World Series in thirty two years.

(15:06):
You got this Springer thing again. They shouldn't have pitched
to him. I'm a Yankees fan, I'm torn. What are
your thoughts? Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox Regardless,
which is one of my favorite big words, regardless, regardless
of anything, to come through in that moment, My goodness.
That is the reason why we watched sports. That is

(15:27):
the reason why baseball has been more electric than ever
before or in years, I should say in years, because
that was the timing of it, the moment, everything about
it was just my goodness. I had to stand up
out of my chair. I was like, I can't believe
is it true? By the way, that George Springer was
the kid in Billy Madison that Billy Madison said to

(15:49):
today Junior, I'm telling him he said that. I was
gonna say, it's uh, it's an interesting guy, right, because
you're right he said everything right. He seems like everything right. Yeah,
he's on that forgiveness campaign. Hey rich what were you
doing though, because last night you had Lions Seahawks, you
had their those games on. Were you going back and

(16:11):
forth the whole time?

Speaker 2 (16:12):
I'll be honest, I watched mostly baseball.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
Yeah, same time, and I was I was going back
and forth checking on football. I feel like them Buyer
Seahawks had a great control of that game for the
most part. Maybe it appeared to the Buccaneers Lions, but
I felt the Lions were running away with it, and I.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
Was like, I'm just keeping it up.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
I'll be honest that the Lions did what we said yesterday.
They asserted that I listen, Baker, you're awesome.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Bucks. You know you're you're a good team. You'll be there.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
But the Lions made a case last night that like
they could still be the best in the NFCL YEA.
Once they were running with the game, I left it
on baseball just to see what happened. When Springer came
through like that, I was just like, man, that that's
the difference right there, those big moment players, and he's
one of those guys. But he was also a cheater.

(17:02):
So it's not about forgiving. But can you root for
them moving forward against your Dodgers? Think about it. It
all begins Friday night World Series baseball. And not only that,
Dodgers mind us two twenty in Vegas to win the series.
So Dodgers are a significant favorite. They got their hands full, man,
And that's the other reason that you might want to
root for them. The Dodgers are so damn good. So

(17:27):
you got the World Series on Friday, you got foosball
heating up, you got more games on Thursday, and you
got the NBA starting to know it's so wrong, it's crazy.
I mean, I'll tell you why I'm against this. Why
you know I have a thought on this. We'll talk
about it next NBA total misstep. Now, I'm not asking

(17:51):
you Fox Sports Radio how you think I should feel.
I'm just sort of venting and expressing my emotions here
because I like it, you know what, because I think, uh,
so many times on podcasts and radio people have like
a BS opinion, even if it like they didn't even
know the subject matter.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
I like that you're asking, like y'all don't know how
to feel.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
We're not, so I think it's BS what everyone feels
like they have to have a hot take no matter what,
Like you don't when you tell me your feelings are
like I hate the Blue Jays but the Dodgers again,
I get the I get the sentiment because I so
many people feel that way.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yeah, I want both of them to lose.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
But at the same time, yeah, it would be cool
to see the Blue Jays beat the Dodgers. Dodgers beat
the Yankees last year. I live in Los Angeles. It's
another factor I'm going through the feedback. TM ten says, hey,
Goofy calls me Goofy. Hey, thanks man, Hey Goofy. It's
okay to not root for anybody, but that's not fun, right.
It's like, here's the thing. I gotta give the scar

(18:44):
lot of brothers some props. Here, the scar Lotta brothers.
These two Jabronis from the East Coast. Do you ever
see these twins?

Speaker 2 (18:52):
They were on the circle? I think so.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Anyway, they're like baseball fans. They made this video rang
of a Blue Jays. You scumbags.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Not that I'm rooting for you, but I'm rooting for you, like,
go get them. I don't like you.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
I'm not rooting for you, but I kind of want
you to beat the Dodgers, right because they are the
new evil Empire. They are too good. But I also
live in LA. Maybe I should have braced it, but
they be the get out the evil Empire La. I
see what you do there, But.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Is there a party?

Speaker 7 (19:29):
Like?

Speaker 2 (19:29):
I don't know?

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Then I then I start to be soft and I'm like, oh,
you know, Danny and Bo and a lot of the
guys that work here, they'd be happy if the Dodgers win.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
I'm like, you know, what. They don't care if the
Mets winning. I'm happy, correct, they don't. They don't, they don't.
In fact, they may chuckle when my team loses. Right.

Speaker 5 (19:43):
My most surprising thing and working with Coveno and Rich
over these last couple of years, of how supportive you
are of other people's teams, Because then we've talked about this.
So I'm telling Cavena right now, do the Dan Bayer rule.
Don't have a cheering don't cheer for a team going in.
Just sit down and watch the game and let nature
take it.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yeah, I'll figure it out.

Speaker 4 (20:02):
Right.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
It's like a fight night, all these fighters. By round
four or five, you know who you're just let it
take its course. I think it's going to be the
Blue Jays because they're the underdogs. But you know who
is fighting.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
Who is likable? And if I wasn't a Dodgers fan,
I would root for him, Vlad Junior.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah, but he's talked so much smacking about so.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
That's why you don't like him better. I mean, I
like watching him.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Play as a baseball fan. As a baseball fan, we've
all seen the kid grow up, and that is a
cool story.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
He's playing with.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
A lot of heart seeing him as a little boy,
the pictures you're seeing on social media, it's great, man.

Speaker 5 (20:36):
I think by the fifth inning Cavina of Game one,
Cavina's going to be like, babe, you want to get
some boutine, Like, yeah, I got a little craving for it.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
You know what, man, I'm from Jersey. We call those
disco fries. I don't ever want disco fries. So your
thoughts Fox Sports Radio Nation, and of course we got
to talk some NBA because Rich I just can't handle it.
Florida and John what's up man? Your thoughts on George Springer?
Is he off the hook? Do you still think cheater?

Speaker 2 (21:02):
What do you think? Man?

Speaker 1 (21:03):
No, you guys listen, I'm gonna take another spin at this, right. Yeah,
he was on the Houston team when they cheated.

Speaker 7 (21:10):
So give the Dodgers a little redemption for a little revenge.

Speaker 6 (21:14):
Where's this twist?

Speaker 7 (21:16):
Right?

Speaker 2 (21:16):
They can't play Houston to get revenge, so you get
revenge on.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
This, BRONI I love that the whole team, Yeah, like
I do.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
Anybody was a big part of that Astro team, and
he's a big part of that.

Speaker 8 (21:28):
Being in the World Series this year, Jay's team hasn't
you know, been back to the World Series in thirty
two years?

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Thirty two years? And by the way, Boba, how can
you not root for him? They're not even in our country, Sam.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Here's another layer for another. Boba sheet announced in the
celebration yesterday that he'd be back for the World Series.
Even though he's an incredible player. It's like, do you
want to mess with the chemistry now that they've been
rolling like that?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
That's another though. I might as well bring back Dave
Steve while the other ye, he's a legend.

Speaker 7 (21:55):
No.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
I heard John Ollerand and his helmet are waiting on standby.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
So Boba is ready to play. Your thoughts on the matchup?
It goes down Friday. How do you feel about it?
Who we got next?

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Pete? That's Pete, Hey, Pete in Oklahoma.

Speaker 7 (22:08):
You're on Gavino Listen. The only reason to route, and
I'm not telling you what to do, The only reason
to root for the Blues Agent I'm a die hard
Yankees is Don Mattically. That's the only reason.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
He's your answer. So I'm glad you talket that.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
Don Mattically been in the part of middle league baseball
since the early eighties, and this is his first World
Series visit as a coach, a manager, a player, or anything.
So as a Yankees fan, well, you do hate the
Blue Jays and the Dodgers that burnt you as a child,
and as an adult last year, you might have to
pull for Donnie Baseball. I mean, how could you not
hit man who's more baseball than that guy and who's

(22:47):
more deserving than don.

Speaker 2 (22:48):
He waved to you and your dad in traffic in
nineteen eighty eight. He really did. True story.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
But you know, I'm getting more feedback Jay Gata, Jay
getta hit me up and he goes, Dude, for all
your Dodgers friends and family you live in La and
rich that goes to you and your kid and all
their friends who love the Dodgers. My kids are like,
of course, dad, the Dodgers, and you know, that's like
their team sort of now unfortunately, but for the rest

(23:14):
of the country it's not as clear either. It would
have been clear if the Mariners won, you're rooting for
the Mariners unless you live in LA. Yeah, with the
Blue Jays and George Springer and again Vlattie, he's not
that likeable in my opinion. You know, your thoughts well
at Covino and Rich. Either way, it all goes down
on Friday, and you better believe we're tuning in. We'll

(23:34):
be talking about it. And now we got to start
getting ready for the NBA as well.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
We don't.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
We don't, And I'll explain why we don't have to
get ready for the NBA. I have a gripe with
the whole league. I also on the anniversary, it's you know,
it's back to the future day when Doc Emmitt Brown said,
let's go come a future Marty, it's not yours, your kids,
and they went to twenty fifteen. Is it a while
to think the future is ten years ago? Think about

(23:59):
that for a second. So we're gonna go back to
the last time the Blue Jays won, and we'll take
our little Cavino Rich Fox Sports Radio time machine to
nineteen ninety three.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
All coming up right here, So let's go to Dan
Buyer for an update. dB. What's doing Buddy?

Speaker 5 (24:14):
A lot going on in the world of sports, and
we start in New York where the Jets are reportedly
going to make a change at quarterback. Justin Fields, the
starter for the first portion of the season, was replaced
last weekend by Trod Taylor for the second half.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Head coach Aaron Glenn making that.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Move my buddy Lenn and Idaho, he's rooting for his Dodgers.
Danny g is excited about it. Oh, Dodgers hold on
Blue Jays this Friday. I've torn based on what Dan
Byer said. We got to play the day a second, Danny,
I know, to keep your Choni's on, but what dan

(24:51):
Byer said was interesting. We're too kind. No one roots
for our teams. It's not like everyone's secrets, Like, really,
I hope Rich's Mets win?

Speaker 3 (24:59):
So why am I really? Nobody's supportive of your team?
How many Mets cards have I give?

Speaker 1 (25:04):
You might be the lone guy that makes me think
you know the Dodgers Mets bobbleheads.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
It's true, you're a good guy. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
I'm torn, Like, can you know you father, your future
father in your girlfriend's dad likes the Dodgers and you're not.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
And you're gonna room for the Blue Jays. He's an
LA guy.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Well, Donny, baseball is uh a deciding factor here?

Speaker 2 (25:23):
I don't know, but maybe the best team win. I'm
a little torn on it.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Well, I imagine there's a lot of people that are
torn on it with the whole George Springer cheating storyline,
even though that was a clutch moment. Again, all these
things make it a confusing sort of situation.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
But maybe just maybe just all like Canadians. No, no, no,
We've made this point before and Dan Byer, blame Canada,
blame Canada. You need to settle down there, buddy. I
just really up said that Justin Trudeau is getting with
Katy Perry. That is true? What yeah true to wow wow,

(26:00):
Dan Meyer.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Much like a prize fight, you said it before, you
sit back, you watch, and you'll figure it out. You
end up rooting for somebody, whether you want to or not.
Right now, it's time for a Tiraq play of the day.
We're lying from the Fox Sports Radio studio. Toronto is
headed to the World Series their first time since nineteen
ninety three. Fold count two outs, top of the ninth

(26:23):
game seven of.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
The Alcs, Puffins payoff, Pitch.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Blue's ears win the Henheads the Blue tags, when the pennants.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
They're going to the World Series.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Not to bet it's so good, Way Mo speaks Ny Man,
nothing Blue, Hold on, Hold on.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Man, they will take on the LA Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
Not to be nitpicky, but if you watch the ninth though,
you feel like they could have drawn a walk. I
feel like they've every batter swung at one, like you know,
cutter out of the zone. Like I mean, I know
I'm being picky. It's a ninth and everyone's pressing. But
you got to get cal runner on. Yeah, you had it,
like you and even the closer said the goal was
to not face cal Raley. I know is common knowledge

(27:10):
probably to some, but I had a google. Jeff Hoffman
related to Trevor No, the answer is no, but you
know grew up idolizing them of Blue Jays Radio Network.
I'm not sure about that, Sam, I'll google it. Yesterday
we talked about the two words everyone loves two words
for the NBA.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Who cares?

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Wow, you gotta brought to you by Draftkicks the NBA games.
The only reason to watch gimble because right now when
you are watching the World Series in a couple of days,
when you're right smack dab week seven.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
Then eight of the NFL.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
Not only that, you're trying to figure out the NFL,
You're like, what is going now?

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Like we are.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
We're in the midst of We had a double doozy
Monday night football last night.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
It's an interesting your season. You're trying to.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Decide who am I pulling for in the World Series
October Baseball high alloweens. You know, in a week your
kids are probably figuring out they're Trunker treat and trick
or Treat. I'm watching The Perfect Neighbor on Netflix, saying,
what the hell I'm watching Chad Powers because no one
else is and it's so freaking good. Five episodes in.
You idiots better be watching Chad Powers.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Danny G.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
Follow me on this one. I'll follow you on task
I started last night. HBO mix the NBA, not to
reminds you of you know, we go to Vegas, Danny
J and they say, oh, the fights start at five thirty,
and you're like, man, do they really or do they
really started like eight o'clock because you're like, then you
start doing the math. You're like, the main event usually

(28:35):
starts at eleven eleven thirty on the East, so the
good fights really don't start.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
It's like three hours of warm ups.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
It's like a waste. It's like preseason NFL. It's like
telling someone, Hey, we're having people over at US seven o'clock.
The host doesn't think you're really showing up at seven.
They assume seven point fifteen is the time, right, No
one shows up at I'm here seven oh one, like
would jump in the gun.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
NBA.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
No one cares until after Thanksgiving. In fact, the best
you ever in the NBA was when it was remember
Christmas Day. That shortened season are like perfect. The NBA
tips off on Christmas Day. The next month and a half.
I'm gonna I'm honest right now, I'm going to be
watching highlights, faking my interest in the NBA until Christmas.
He's not lying about that shortened season being the most

(29:24):
exciting season.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
It really was. Some of that was action just started
and we got right into it.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
It seemed like the perfect amount of time. But not
for the owner's pockets. And that's why they're not going
to listen to all of our hot takes about you
should start on Christmas Day every year.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Y Anny.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
You know what's it's only because of a couple of storylines,
and you know, us trying to fish for good content
for the show, and there's always gonna be some trauma, right,
and you know you want to see what new players
are emerging. Does Wenby take a big step forward this
year and anyone be okay, okay, we've only gotten better exactly, So.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
The Rockets roll out the tallest opening day lineup in
NBA history, and.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Then you're then you're gonna be very intrigued by like,
what do the Mavericks look like? Healthy? Right?

Speaker 1 (30:04):
I get it to storylines, but other than for work
purposes and to stay in the loop as a grown man,
I have zero interest in the NBA until Christmas Day.
I open might as well put in my stocking stuffer NBA.
Oh look at this little marshmallow Santa and the NBA,
because until until Christmas Day, the NBA I don't care

(30:25):
about you.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
I don't care, and I'll stick to it. I don't care.
Then By who rang that?

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Man? You watch the Texans and I again, I like
to throw my opinions and thoughts out there, but I
don't prove I don't claim to know everything. The Texans
who now said at two and four, seems like your
Seahawks sort they had their way last night. It may
even appear closer than it really was. Fair statement. You
out putt them for the most part.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Seahawks let them hang around to make it look closer. Ye, yes,
they're favored over the Niners.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Is it because it's in Texas and it's the travel
or is there something that the Niners wouldn't line up against,
because I'm wondering why the Niners are like two point
dogs in Houston.

Speaker 5 (31:14):
Yeah, especially too because the road home stuff isn't three
points anymore. They're usually saying it's about a point and
a half maybe for a home thing.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
I think desperation mode, maybe desperation mode for Houston and
then the forty nine ers going on the road after,
you know, maybe a letdown.

Speaker 5 (31:31):
I think that Houston's defense is probably the best unit
of the four. So that's why I would I would
say take forty nine Ers offense, forty nine ers defense,
Houston's offense, Houston's defense. I don't care how you sort two,
three and four, And it may be obvious, but probably
because Houston's defense.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
That's a pretty great answer. And that's why Dan Bayer
brings the juice every day here on FSR. It should
make you tip your forty nine ers at the same
Darnold and the Seahawks offense.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Yeah, you know.

Speaker 5 (32:00):
Yeah, and they only turned it over four times last night.
My goodness, I don't people said be happy with a win,
but they just kept they just kept giving the Texans
life after life.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
They kept him in. But Darnold's having a pretty good season.

Speaker 5 (32:14):
Yeah, until he fumbled the ball in the end zone
trying to extend a play that kept the Texans in
the game, and then threw another ball over the middle,
like it's sorry, sorry, Steve.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
You know, uh, Dann Bayer, because I was flipping between
all the games and baseball last night. What was he
can't sit down? What was the won Cooper Cup pass attempt?
Was it a cool tricky player a fail to temp?

Speaker 5 (32:33):
Yeah, until it was intercepted of fourteen to nothing. You're
driving down there, yeah, down the field, up fourteen to nothing.
Why not throw this wrinkle it. You've been dominating them
the whole time. Let's have our wide receiver throw the football.
This is this is just my point. They're five and two.
Happy with five and two. There are four teams in
the NFL that have turned the ball over twelve times
this season, Danny's Raiders. Sorry, I couldn't say with a

(32:57):
straight face, The Dolphins, the Titans, and the Seahawks.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
The fact that they're five and two again, you should.

Speaker 5 (33:04):
Be like amazing. Multiple turnovers every game. Yeah, it's like
Pete Carroll's still running the show for it.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Jeez.

Speaker 5 (33:10):
How did they lose to the forty nine ers? What
was the last play up, Nick Bosa?

Speaker 2 (33:14):
Wait, turnover?

Speaker 5 (33:16):
Yes, it was a turnover. How did the Buccaneers kick
a field goal to end the game in Seattle with
the win?

Speaker 2 (33:22):
Dude? A turnover? Yeah, it was a turnover. You got
to go to the bakery and send him some turnoffs.
My goodness. Sorry, there's my little rant.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Well, of those, that five and two Seahawks team is
not alone because when you look around the NFL eight
five and two teams, if you add two four and
two teams in the Steelers and Bills, you have ten teams.
A third of the league essentially is five and two
or four and two.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
So crazy.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
The wheels are going to fall off some and some
will keep the momentum going. But a really interesting NFL season. Now, Camino,
a random question. I want to I got you, I
got you guys here to shoot me straight. If you
think I'm wrong. I'm coaching girls eight you softball and
as you know, when you're coaching kids. I know a

(34:07):
lot of people listening to our show are living that
mom or dad life. They're coaching or watching their kids play.
There's always a couple kids at the bottom of the lineup.
And you remember it when you played, like, oh, no,
I never was at the bottle Well I never said
you were, but you remember, like, you know, yeah, Ernie
was there and you know stunk, but he was a
good kid, right, There was always there was always a
couple of kids.

Speaker 6 (34:27):
Now.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
I always wonder about, though, why'd they stick around? No,
those kids who really, let's just say, weren't that good?
How do they look back at that? No, what did
they tell their kids? I always wonder about that. Oh,
how you brag about you with the greatest Little League
champion of all time?

Speaker 2 (34:43):
What is it? What does the worst kid say? What
is that hope you're better than me? Son? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Does he just let let it, you know, sort of
let the illusion that he was pretty good? Dad played
Pop Warner football, you know it? Does he leave out
the part where it's like and I never played inside,
I don't know what and you know what I have
here's another funny part. I know some of those kids,
and I see them on social media today and their

(35:08):
kids are actually really good, and that's like, wow, how
did that happen? Well, some it's honestly, I agree with
you because there was a kid I played with that
was not good and his kids like.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Yeah, like a division ie player. That guy. I've seen
that too. That's crazy.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
So it's it's more of a did I do something
that you think is wrong or not? So the bottom
of the lineup, I was, Sam, picture this.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah, I was there. I pictured that.

Speaker 8 (35:34):
I was there, bottom of the line, bottom the lineup.
I think practice, you have to practice as a kid. Yeah,
So I didn't practice. So I was at the bottom
of the lineup.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Batting night, playing right field.

Speaker 8 (35:45):
Sam, I was a kid who had to sit on
the bench when everyone else was out playing the field.
And I was like the guy that to sit out
an inning on Hey, yeah, I angle that with the kids,
Like you know what I'm talking about. You know how you
angle that? You say your kids, it's really hot out today.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Who wants a break? O?

Speaker 8 (35:58):
They're say, Sam, you sit back during the third, the fourth,
and fifth. You can go in sixth, seventh, and eighth
and save it for up by ten runs, you can play.

Speaker 4 (36:06):
No.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
So long story short, the bottom of the lineup. These
are kids that you know, they're still like there's swing's
not there. They're swinging really hot. A ball could be
ten feet in the air and they swing at it.
It could bounce ten feet before home plate and they're
just swinging. So I'm as a coach, I'm trying to
just teach these kids, like, all right, all right, buddy,
if it's in your zone, swing, if it's if it's

(36:27):
way above your head, don't swing if it's way low.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
We're not in golfing, all right, all right, let's go.
We get it.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
Hey, girls, cheer on your teammates. First pitch, twelve feet
in the air, reaching and swinging. Next pitch like doesn't
even make it to the plate, golf swing zher and two.
On the third pitch, I could see it's gonna be
like fifteen feet in the air, Like these are girls
learning how to pitch. I go, but no, no, no no,

(36:55):
And the girl held back her swing.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
After the game.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
Would you believe someone came up to me one of
the people that quote run the league, and they're like, yeah,
you can't be coaching like per pitch to the kids,
and I said what I said, I was sort of
a jerk.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
It's like when you do play by play on the air.
I said, yeah, I'm not gonna do that.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Oh, Like, I don't know where you came with his rule,
but yeah, no, I'm gonna I'm gonna coach my kids.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Thanks, I'm gonna do what I want. Do you think
that's a weird rule to say that? Like, I never
heard of this unless we're talking professional ten.

Speaker 1 (37:29):
And it's tennis, and I know you can't coach someone
from from the court, but have you ever heard someone
say you can't coach a kid through balls and strikes?

Speaker 2 (37:37):
Never? Not, not at that level.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
Right, Yes, they're eight, and of the if I see
that part of the culture of baseball. And so you're
screaming from the dugouts and you're cheering a team saying.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
Hear loud voices from the stands. There's all kinds of places.
What if the dad was just standing there and he's like, no,
but honey, no, no, no, no, don't.

Speaker 5 (38:00):
I think it makes you look like you're one of
those overbearing coaches when that's not the intent.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Correct.

Speaker 5 (38:07):
Yeah, they come off thinking that they're doing good for
the league, but they actually are coming off is trying
to be the more competitive stuff. You're doing it because
you want your eight year olds to learn on what's
to strike and not.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
To strike right all up.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
And by the way, fallball for people to coach fall
in the spring in different states. They fall balls very casual,
like a lot of these games that we do and
keep score new girls try to pitch. It's sure fall
balls more chill like spring is when they have the parade,
the nicer jerseys, everything. This is almost like the practice
fall league. So if I'm telling a girl, no, no, don't swing, Okay, good,

(38:43):
hey buddy, let it be in your zone. And I'm
just trying to encourage the kid, You're gonna yell at me.
I almost lost my mind, damn byer. My wife felt
so awkward that interaction. Woman who was telling you that
you need to follow the rules was kind of snippy
with you, right.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
I'm like, what rules?

Speaker 1 (39:00):
Though, I've never heard of such a thing, and I
know we have a national audience or on three to
four different stations, has anyone ever heard that you can't
tell a kid, oh, a bad pitch is coming.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
Does this woman know they call you above the law, Davis.

Speaker 5 (39:12):
You're not doing it to try to win the game.
You're just trying to tell them what the strikes on.
It is correct, what's good?

Speaker 1 (39:17):
Because yes, because the kid who's seven just swung a
two balls that were compolle.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
Yes, it's decorum. Rich, you're violating the decoram So I.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
Was like, no, you could. You can tell me that,
but I'm gonna keep coaching the way I want.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
Thanks. I'm a dad who volunteers this time.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
Didn't you dismiss her and say, have whoever you need
to have email me?

Speaker 2 (39:34):
Yeah, I got time for this, lady.

Speaker 5 (39:37):
Email me at I don't care what you think. At
aol dot com.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
Yeah, hit me up at my old AOL.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
I check it offten. But yeah, just I want to
throw it out there at Rich Davis, if you want
to hit me up, get into a spike war with
a little league mom. I do a pony league mom
or whatever it is. You know, she might make this
harder for you. Okay, so that changes things? Is that
a softball thing? I never played girls? I never heard

(40:04):
that my life. Listen the girls, the girls that are
getting good at pitching, they pitch fast enough where you
can't even make that split decision like swing those ing
like they're throwing hard. I'm talking about like the girls
when they're trying to learn. I don't get it, and
I just figured I throw it out there. We are
a sports show, and I guarantee I'm not the only
coach or dad that.

Speaker 2 (40:22):
Has seen this.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
It's like, don't tell them if a ball or strike's coming.
Never heard that news to me. And the real core
and juice of the story is the fact that Richard
and like to be spoken that way. But yeah, there's
there's women and men, some phillies, Karen, there's there's people.
I don't know if people encounter this. You ever have
someone at work or at your kid's school or someone
talk to you. I'll give you an example. Do you

(40:44):
remember that like average movie on Netflix with Bill Burr
where he's like a dad. I remember it was like
something Dad, I so to me. I don't accept when
people talk to me away that Like I wouldn't let
my wife, friends or family talk to me, Like if
someone talks to him away, like you may talk to
your husband that way. Old Dad's just like rich old.

(41:07):
Remember Remember the people at the daycare were yelling at
Bill Burrn. He's like, yeah, I was one minute later
picking up my kid, and remember that whole scene.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Yeah, I do. That's how I felt. I'm like, what
are you doing?

Speaker 1 (41:18):
Yeah, you're talking to me in a way that if
my wife, my friends, my coworkers, no one would, No
one talks to.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
Me that way.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
Now that you're giving up your free time to coach
and help out these kids, and you got this lady
being a stickler, being a missus grundy yelling at you
about the rules when it's a loose fall ball situation.
So I carege where going from. But that's news to me, dude.
I've never heard of that rule ever.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
Paul and Orlando said he has a little insight.

Speaker 4 (41:44):
What's up, Paul, coach Rich, it's rare, but I got
your back on this one. When I was seven and
eight years old, the coaches were actually allowed out in
the infield, you know around the history.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Yeah, we're allowed to have this. There's two coaches that
are allot to sort of roam the field and like, hey, kids,
baseball ready, softball ready. Like it's so instructional that I'm like.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
Well, yeah, it's all at that age, it's all about instruction.

Speaker 6 (42:10):
It's not about you.

Speaker 4 (42:11):
Know, rules, rules, rules, and uh yeah, so I got
your back on this one. I can't say I have
your back all the time, but on this one.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
But you know what you never want to do, especially
in public, starting to fight with a woman. And you know,
that's not a sexist comment. It's just not a good
look for coaching a guy, you know, And it's hard
to win that dude.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
That's if you get extra ste that is that is
not sexist at all.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
I think every man and woman would agree that if
a man and a woman are arguing in public, you're
just gonna no one that ever says even the guy,
have the guy's side, and if you're right, that's the thing,
you know. So it's an awkward situation a man and
a woman fighting in public, whereas people are like, man,
the guy's really right.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
Never never, That's what I'm saying. You got to be
careful here.

Speaker 5 (42:52):
Did you see the video of the Tennessee fan being
escorted from the Alabama game? No, okay, just what I'm saying,
because she was fighting with the police the whole time,
and the guy was just kind of sitting there like, oh,
what what are you supposed to do in that sort
of case.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
So like, yeah, like I get it. Like the guy
guy never wins, the guy.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
Always looks like a dope. But anyway, thanks for hearing
me out. I apologize for taking too long telling that story,
but it was just on my mind.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Thank you. No, I mean, it's that time of year.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
It's uh, it's fall ball season, but it's also basketball season,
is it?

Speaker 2 (43:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Tonight, so enjoy that again, Mavericks. Like you said, Mavericks.
The Knicks fifth in the Power rankings, as Danny G
pointed out Oklahoma City Thunder who played tonight, they play
the Rockets, the tallest starting lineup in history. Yes, that's crazy, Danny.
I'm gonna bite the stupid bait. Give me the top five.
Is anybody is any good buddy gonna beat the Thunder

(43:52):
this year?

Speaker 2 (43:52):
So Thunder is fu, You've only gotten better.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
You got the Warriors, Lakers if Thunder's one could be No,
and Nicks are five Celtics, Mavericks. Who else? Who else
is rounding out this list?

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Bocks? No, I put it away. You said he didn't
want it.

Speaker 1 (44:08):
No want I want the top five. Try to get
us hype, Danny, Who are the top five. I gotta
find the list here. Oh I found it right, Yeah, okay,
let me see.

Speaker 3 (44:17):
Uh oh they bounce all over on the uh on
the list.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
You have to open up the link. Should I should?
I take your time? I guess you know.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
A storyline I find kind of funny too though. That's
been all over social media. How outspoken Stephen A. Smith
has been about his disdain for Lebron James. That's wild
right in front of like Lebron's boys, like Carmelo Anthony
sitting there, got a problem with you and he's like,
I don't like him at all. I just don't like him,
and it's like, man, what is going on here? That's

(44:49):
kind of a wild storyline too. So it gets me
fired up a little bit about the Lakers and what
they're going to be about this year.

Speaker 3 (44:55):
All right, Top five here according to Bleacher Report. Yeah, okay,
see number one, so no surprise, no surprise. Yeah, of course,
Denver Nuggets too.

Speaker 2 (45:03):
Okay, that makes sense?

Speaker 3 (45:04):
Yeah, yep. At number three, the Houston Rockets, who we
just talked about. At number four, the Cleveland Cavaliers they
were great last yep. And then we talked about five,
the New York Knicks.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
Oh wow, Lakers not even in the picture, Bro. Timberwolves
at six according to them, Yeah, well you gotta run.
Lakers at seven. Lakers are in the top ten. This
is uh. This will be Luca's first full campaign as
a Laker.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
Keep that in mind. We'll see what happens around them.
So eventually we will talk more NBA. But coming up,
we're gonna do Showtime a homes trivia and in honor
of Back to the Future day, we'll take a quick
little look. What were you doing in nineteen ninety three
the last time the Toronto Blue Jays? You mean now,
when I was the All Union County Pitcher of the Year.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
That's what I was doing.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
I was winning, Bro, winning, I said I was doing
back in ninety three. You yeah, night, you asked in
ninety three when I was a champion, mean when I'm
slaying it, Bro. So we'll go back to ninety three.
We'll play some trivia, we'll have some fun. Let's go

(46:09):
to Randy in Texas.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
Hey, Randy, oh.

Speaker 6 (46:13):
Well, on the subject of looking like an ass hat, Yeah,
a lady pulled in, you know, a Karen in a
Mercedes bench just pulled straight into a handicapped spot as
I was walking in this door and I just have
to say, hey, this is not right. And then about
three minutes later, I'm in the middle of a fight
with this lady that I have to apologize too because

(46:35):
I'm peo pulled with the race card and a pistol.

Speaker 1 (46:38):
Whoa pulled out a pistol. I'm not fighting with anyone
in a parking lot. By the way, here's how you
put that to bed real quick.

Speaker 8 (46:47):
So in parks in a handicapped spot, they get out
and I know, lke listen, people might have some different things.
I'm not, but a funny thing to do is to
be like, hey, where's your wheelchair? No, it's not a
funny do you get you don't think it's funny, that's
not no. But then if they're doing it because they're
just being inconsiderate not funny, Well.

Speaker 2 (47:02):
But it could be not everybody a wheelchair.

Speaker 7 (47:05):
I know.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
I know. That's why there could be a multi time.

Speaker 8 (47:08):
That's why I prefaced it's saying, Sam, people you don't
always know people's disability. But I'm saying a lot of people,
if they're just saving time, hold on, that's why you
throw that at them because to call them out.

Speaker 2 (47:19):
Sam, I love you, but that's the worst advice ever.
If they don't have a wheelchair, kick them in the links.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
If you see someone parking in a handicap spot and
they don't have a yeah, hey, give them a little
guff where's your wheelchair?

Speaker 5 (47:31):
In the ninety minutes of this show today, we want
to ask handicapped parkers where's your wheelchair? And we've also
mocked stuttering. Yes, I mean at least wear a neck
brace or something. Bobby, Bobby Heenen parked a handicaps What

cool thanks for having Patrick dB. What's going on now?

Speaker 5 (54:01):
A lot's going on in New York. We'll get to
the Giants in a sec. But it's been quite a
day for the New York Jets. This is what owner
Woody Johnson said about his head coach Aaron Glenn.

Speaker 1 (54:10):
If I were a player, he would I would respond
to him because he's the real deal.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
Nobs, there's no second agendas. What you're hearing is the truth,
and a lot of time players don't get the truth.
They get a lot of gobbledy gooog.

Speaker 5 (54:24):
Well, got quite the voter confidence for the O to
seven head coach. As for the quarterback of that O
to seven team, Justin Fields. Here's Woody Johnson's opinion of
the quarterback.

Speaker 2 (54:35):
You have to play.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
Consistently at that position, and that's what we're going to
try to do.

Speaker 2 (54:39):
Hope we can just complete a pass, it would look good.

Speaker 8 (54:42):
We have to complete some patter.

Speaker 4 (54:43):
You got to convince him that you could do something.

Speaker 5 (54:45):
So not necessarily a voted confidence. And now ESPN is
reporting that the Jets are going to start to Rodd
Taylor at quarterback in Week eight against the Bengals, moving
Justin Fields to the bench. The Vikings will start Carson
Wentz On Thursday night against the Chargers, JJ McCarthy still
not fully recovered from his high ankle spring Jets release
kicker Jude mcatammany Today. Mcatamney missed two extra points in

(55:06):
there thirty three to thirty two loss to the Broncos
last Sunday. Giants quarterback Russell Wilson responded viax the comments
indirectly made about him by Broncos head coach Sean Payton
after Sunday's game. Wilson posted on social media quote classless
but not surprised. Didn't realize you're still bounty hunting fifteen
plus years later. Alrighty, we have time to finish here.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
All right, let's wrap it up.

Speaker 5 (55:29):
Tiebreak. Yeah, let's get our contestant back on the line.
Mike and Waco get out here. That's all right, Joe,
no multiple choice for the tiebreak. It's just buzz in
with your name when you're ready to answer this question.
Whoever comes closest, doesn't matter if you're over or under.
Whoever comes closest, it's perfect. All right, Patrick read the
ot question.

Speaker 1 (55:48):
All right, life of a show boy. Show boy, I'm
a home trivia. What is my career quarterback rating?

Speaker 2 (55:54):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (55:55):
By the way, we round it down by a tenth
of a point to make it a solid number. So
Patrick's career quarterback rating, Mikey.

Speaker 2 (56:04):
Let's say ninety eight, ninety eight, okay. I was going
to say one O two.

Speaker 5 (56:08):
One o two for Rich all right, I'll say, jeez,
one hundred point. Now I'll just say one hundred Okay, Spotty, I'll.

Speaker 1 (56:19):
Go with ninety seven seven.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
Rich, You lucky dog, you've hit it two games in
a row. It's one oh two.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
Right on the road. Right on it, dog.

Speaker 1 (56:31):
I think he was looking at my sheet here. I
feel like he's the Springer cheater of the show. I mean,
it hit it dead.

Speaker 2 (56:39):
I'm like that. I mean it's like you know the answer.
But congrats, I mean, what can you say? Thank you? Patrick?

Speaker 3 (56:44):
All right, Mikey in Waco, thank you for playing the
game today. We appreciate you. O.

Speaker 7 (56:49):
Brian, Brian Bran should have gotten you, bro.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
All right, man, all right until the Commanders. Let's go
for Commanders next week. All right, guys, I'm out.

Speaker 2 (56:57):
Thank you Patrick Patrick. Later, guys, I a Nider, George Springer.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
I'd have thought about Dan Buyer's update, if that's cool
with you. Guys, dB, you were talking about the Jets
and how yeah, no BLAINO. The votes of odd confidence
they're getting for the owner. The Jets are just in
a weird spot. It's a one what have you done
lately for me lately sort of world. We live in
Worts now. Now the Jets are zero and seven, and
this kid's gone viral. And I think the reason he's

(57:24):
gone viral is that sort of encapsulates what it's like
to root for a team that stinks, knowing that you're
never going to really change your alliance or colors, because
it's what sports fans do. If you like a terrible team,
it's sort of like you're married with the inability to
get divorced. And there's something about the calmness in this
young man's voice. A viral clip of a young Jets

(57:47):
fan this past week.

Speaker 2 (57:49):
I hate this team. I was born into this and
I'm not gonna ever. I'm always a Jets fan, but like,
I just I hate the same.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
It was just so Yeah, some social media guy goes
up to this goofy kid. He's like, hey man, we
think the Jets this year? And that was his like
honest answer. But it just felt so like there was
Wednesday scripted at all.

Speaker 2 (58:12):
Yeah, it was from the heart. It's like, what do
you want me to tell you other than like, you know,
I was born into this.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
My dad and uncle and probably everyone is a Jets fan,
so I have to be in Hey, there's no escape
in it. I'm a young man, and I just know
this torture down the road forever really is what it is. Yeah,
it sucks, that does it sucks? You know your family
picture teams, which is why I guess I have to
accept the fact that my kids are leaning Dodgers. We
live in LA and I'm a Mets fan, But I
guess why not let them be winners?

Speaker 2 (58:39):
Off? I camp be right? Is that one way to
look at it?

Speaker 4 (58:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (58:43):
I mean, yeah, I don't know. If that's your thing.

Speaker 3 (58:46):
Man, I'm guessing that this kid's family are also Knicks
fans when it comes to basketball.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
Some hope this season starts saying.

Speaker 1 (58:53):
I mean fifth in the power right, They're gonna be good.
The Knicks are going to be good. I think Damn
Patrick recently went on not a rant. He did this
a segment I believe, where highlighting how the New York
sports teams have really underdelivered. Like New York used to
be a really awesome sports market, but the Yankees haven't
won in sixteen years. The Knicks stink, The Jets stink,

(59:14):
The Mets stink like, well, the Knicks don't stink anymore, yeh,
but they haven't one since you know, since before you
were born, before I was born, for sure, you know.

Speaker 2 (59:25):
So yeah, sorry, if you're a Jets fan, apologies.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
Now you know what, we're gonna maybe push it to
push it to tomorrow. The Blue Jays nineteen ninety three.
It's wild to think we have this like weird. If
you're like forty something, you're like, yeah, I remember the
Blue Jays, Paul Mollotor, you know, John Olarude, Joe Carter,
you have a.

Speaker 2 (59:45):
Memory of it.

Speaker 1 (59:46):
But I read somewhere that seventy seven percent of the
current Blue Jays on their roster weren't even alive when
that Blue j when the Blue Jays last one. So
the idea of like, well, they've been there, Yeah, they've
been there, but like a long ass time ago. If
you want to really put in perspective, thirty two years
that's like if you were a kid in the eighties

(01:00:09):
the last time your team, what was nineteen fifty something?
Like time is moving, right, I mean, like thirty plus
years ago is not yesterday anymore. You know, you asked
the meme go. As the meme goes, you think thirty
years ago? So what nineteen seventy something? No, thirty years
ago is the mid nineties? Aside from squeezing cheeks in
the nineties, you know what I remember most nineteen ninety
three was the debut of Beavis and BUTTHEAD ninety three

(01:00:33):
spot spot. It's like it's like we changed the world.
I mean, so you know what tomorrow, Let's let's go
over tomorrow. Let's think about where we were in ninety three,
spot I know you were watching the new spinoff Saved
by the Bell The College Year.

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Oh my favorite. Well did you explain why? Because it's
back to the future there.

Speaker 1 (01:00:47):
It's back to the future there, but we get extended
to tomorrow because guess what we make the rules. It's
convened on rich Yeah that was Sam, Spotty boy. Let's
have a lot of fun. People say it's the perfect movie.
So yeah, we'll make a whole week out. Yeah, we'll
see you guys back here tomorrow. Until then, great Scott, hoorrima,
Darcy baby, see you in the Promised Land, right, Scott,
