Mikey A is laughing already.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. We start in
a very strange place today. I'm very excited for today's show.
We have Tim Kirchin and in nour number two. But
we start in the strangest of places a place I've
never started before, Akron. Ohioh Lebron tak Yeah, I'm gonna
take it from here.
Speaker 6 (01:11):
No, no, no, no, I'll take that ball. I'll take
that ball right back from you.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:15):
Thanks.
Speaker 6 (01:16):
Is there anything Akron can do to interest you guys
in some Zips football this year?
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Not really? No? Is that the home of Jason Taylor,
by the way.
Speaker 7 (01:25):
That's where he went to school. Yeah, yeah, Akron Zips. No,
I don't think so far. Nothing.
Speaker 6 (01:30):
So that's exactly what Akron thought, and they said the
ante must be upped this season. Right, So what Akron
did is they introduced a new promotion in which a
season ticket holder will get to script the opening drive
of Akron's home opener against Robert Morris. The promotion is
(01:52):
called the Offensive Coordinator of the Game.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
Wow the OC huh wait wait wait wait wait, So
one of the season ticket holders will just get to
script the opening drive of the home opener, not every
home game, just the home opener for right now.
Speaker 6 (02:06):
Yes, correct, the home opener against Robert Morris. All current
season ticket holders will be automatically entered into a random
drawing for every new season ticket holder. A current one
successfully refers, they'll receive additional entries, and right now it's
all the buzz on social media. It'sat You got people
from all over the country who play this college football
(02:27):
video game saying what they do is in that hard.
Let me buy some Acron season I think it's like
eighty dollars to get Acron season tickets.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
But I was going to ask you how much.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Normally this is easy's role with a follow up, but
I do have a couple of follow ups. Please price
out four season tickets to Acron football this year. I
just want to see how much they cost it. Also,
how bad is Robert Morris at football?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Look? I need to know what was the record last
year for Robert Morris?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Meaning are they really putting this game in jeopardy by
letting a season ticket holder script the opening drive of
the first game at home against Robert Morris?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
They have to be bad.
Speaker 7 (03:03):
Robert Morris was three and nine less season, okay?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
And what was Acron?
Speaker 7 (03:06):
That's a better.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah, Mikey, I would say this.
Speaker 8 (03:11):
Most people are like, oh man, I'm going flee, flick
or hail Mary? Why other zip I'm gonna zag? I
hope they have a fullback. I hope they're ready to
pound the rock because I'm making it like an eighteen
play drive here.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
I'm gonna make it last.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Really full back dives. I'm looking to get a job
out of this time.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Yes, so I'm on the go zips website right now.
The cheapest season ticket in section U twoh one seventy
five dollars. I kind of overshot it saying eighty five dollars.
But Mikey, you'll actually access Yeah, You'll be working with
head coach Joe Moorehead and he will help you design
(03:51):
design the place. My thinking though, Joe Moorehead knows how
much of a gimmick this is, like, no football guy
is signing up for this where Joe Schmoe's coming off
the street. There is no way he's rooting for success
on that first drive.
Speaker 8 (04:07):
Right, Former Fordham head coach, I'm all in, let's go
Joe Morehead.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, but Morehead has final say, Dan Bayer has something
he has perked up here. He is excited about this topic.
Speaker 9 (04:18):
Yes, yeah, despite Robert Morris being three to nine in
the NEC. Again, this is not FBS, but in the FCS,
I still think that the drive will amount to ZIP
points for whoever designs it's for Akron.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
So you're saying Akron can afford to do this and
not really jeopardize the game.
Speaker 9 (04:36):
Oh, I'm also saying that Robert Morris may be bad,
but there's no way that they're gonna let some amateur
go in and put points on the board of the
opening drive.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Like there's got to be a system, right, because there's
got to be a little astis by design the first drive.
I would imagine, first of all, if I'm this coach,
I'm getting it written into my contract that if we
have a terrible season because we're starting off with this
terrible idea, yeah this year doesn't not count for me
and I deserve more money, right. But also, there's no
way they're actually going to be able to create a
(05:06):
drive for themselves. The coats are going to be like,
all right, first play this player that play, Second play
this player that play, and then just go from there
because there's no chance at heck, he's like anybody's gonna
really get.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
To, you know, pick the plays.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Yes, Della, depending on how that first drive goes, is
there any scenario where that guy gets on staff? Because
I think in my mind, I.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Mean if they're up seven to nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
If they're up seven to nothing and they have a
twenty five play scripted methodical drive where they're just driving
down on Robert Morris, I think that guy has to
be considered for the second drive too.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I think Morehead gets fired on the spot.
Speaker 9 (05:43):
I think, yeah, that's where I'm thinking, right, yes, or
if it fails, do you just fire Morehead or the
social media guy who came up with this idea?
Speaker 8 (05:53):
Yeah, conspiracy theory.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Did Bill Belichick run this last year with those opening drives?
Speaker 6 (06:00):
It was a great opening drop.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Because it went all downhill from there.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, but he's saying a fan drew it up because
every other drive's stunk.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
So I'm looking at akron schedule from last season and
what I'm what I'm realizing right now. They went to Lincoln,
Nebraska and played the corn Huskers. They lost sixty eight nothing.
I think this is a case of Akron realizing, hey,
we might get we might find ourselves in a lou
Garry Wally Pip situation where if we get this offensive
(06:30):
coordinator for a game. One, he's working for theoretically free here,
but two we might find somebody who who could actually
put some points up against some of these power out
schools like Nebraska.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
He's literally paying you to work, literally buying a season ticket,
He's paying you to work.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yep, that's the way I like.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
The due gotts is strong en achery.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
What are the worst and best case scenarios here?
Speaker 5 (06:53):
Right? Because if I'm picked for this, I am picking
a trick play on the first play and it's gonna
end up in a touchdown if everything works out correct.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Meaning if you're truly picking, if you have the run
of the mill, meaning it's not option A, option B,
you get to pick any play from their playbook.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
I would say, hey, for any playbook.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
Yes, I would say, hey, coach, what's the best trick
play that could result in a you know, a fifty
or a huge game?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I purchase season tickets. I'm not asking the coach anything.
I'm just running what I want to run.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
To be fair, you spend seventy five dollars, I.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Mean, so what that's a promotion?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
I mean and if that works out, then everybody's happy, right,
Coach doesn't have to worry about the rest of the
Drive team's happy.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
What a start to our home season? Worst case scenario,
what if it's like a seventy year old grandma who
wins this opportunity and then she comes in and she's
just like, no idea what to do, just kind of
pick and plays willy nilly. I feel like that's why
it can't be a random draw, Like it has to
be somebody that has a lot more football knowledge than
(07:56):
somebody who's just an acron fan.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
You like to fancy yourself as someone who could call
the plays, right, yeah, call the entire game.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
I could redo their entire play.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But by the remainder of the season tickets they have, Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
It gives us more chances.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Is he you showed me a red flag though, because
you said you want to start the game with a
trick play. If you're Robert Morris and you see you
coming in to be the offensive coordinator for the game one,
if you're Robert Morris, like this is ultimate Bolton board material. There,
Akron is telling you you're so bad, We're gonna have
somebody from Section two seventeen road w coming to call play.
(08:31):
But they are that bad, but you're giving them extra motivation.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Right, You don't want to do that to Robert Morris, right.
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Is he? Well, if you're Robert Morris. Yeah, everybody knows.
You don't want to give Robert Morris extra an extra
preparhurrection for a week.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I mean, they're a different team when they have a
chip on their shoulder.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Everyone know what happens when you're aggressive, When you're angry
and you're aggressive, you overplay something.
Speaker 7 (08:52):
Oh no, ball's not going over there. They're a dude
wide open thirty yards down the field.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
But when you're bringing this guy off the street to
be the offensive courdinator, everybody's first thought is, let's start
this game with a trick play. And that's exactly what
Robert Morris is expecting. Yeah, that's why this coordinator business is.
It's chest not checkers.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Yes, I think you know, I think he's right.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
No, I think a couple of full back dives just
so they think, okay, Robert Morris is like, hey, nothing
much get to change here. This is what Accrod always does,
the full back dive, and then you break out the
trick plays on third down and third and long.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I would also say, guys, he.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Needs to be there on install day.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
It's our dad.
Speaker 7 (09:29):
No, that's okay.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
If I'm the if I win this contest, I don't know,
if I want to do a trick play right off
the bat, I wouldn't do the full back dives because
I don't want it to be one and done, because
if I score, then it's done. Like I want to
at least call I want to get into a rhythm.
I want to call more plays. I don't want it
to just be one play and if we score a touchdown,
that's it. I want to string this thing out right.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
To a couple of five yard outs.
Speaker 7 (09:49):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, just chunks, you know, take time off
the clock.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
How can they see the trick play coming if other
people are thinking differently, right other they could say, oh yeah,
he's probably gonna try to run it up the middle
and then give us a trick play on third down, No,
right off the bat, seventy yards touchdown, and then and
then you do it to the coach and say, hey,
let me get the second drive.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
So Akron, I'm looking at their schedule again from last season. Yeah,
do you know how many points the Akron Zips scored
their first eight quarters?
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Zip zips?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Zips?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Really?
Speaker 7 (10:24):
So this is an audition, This is not it's not
a gimmick.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
Well, it can't get worse, right, They lose Week one
to Wyoming ten to nothing. Then they go on the road,
like I mentioned, to Nebraska, they lose sixty eight nothing,
and then Week three is when they get their first touchdown,
a big fourteen point quarter, you know, in an eventual
thirty one to twenty eight loss to UAB the Blazers.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I mean, this OC has to be sweating right now.
He does.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
He sets such a little bar that a fast season
ticket holder could come in and exceed it and take.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
His jumb Taylor do a little bit more research of
those first how many games was it until they scored
or quarters?
Speaker 6 (11:00):
Third game?
Speaker 7 (11:01):
Third game?
Speaker 5 (11:01):
Of those two and a half games, how many trick
plays did they run? I'm gonna guess none.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
I'll have to go back and look at the TA.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You just want to run a flea flicker.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
You got to get a little bit more thoughtful than
a flee flicker. But yeah, something in that neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
There are two calls on the board.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I'll get to him in just a second eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox. I know I said I
would stop whatever we're doing to talk about whatever it
is you want to talk about, But I talking Zips
football right now.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I don't know, Eric, zip zip it up.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Eric wants to talk about Mount Rushmore Mondays, and I
feel like that's a a fan who deserves his time.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
You're right, let's go to Eric. Eric, go ahead, you're
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (11:41):
Hey, guys, I really enjoyed that Mount Rushmore brick down
last week. But I had I had one am in
one correction?
Speaker 7 (11:49):
What's that?
Speaker 10 (11:51):
Sticking with the fearsome Forsome and I would go Merlin
Olsen on Little House on the Prairie.
Speaker 7 (11:57):
M I would never see it.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
But okay, okay, Uh, you've been sitting on that for
a while. Man. Yeah, that's the.
Speaker 10 (12:06):
I can't remember which one of you picked Terry Crews,
but you Yeah, yeah, Mikey Camacho for Mediocracy.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
That's another good one. Yeah, thank you Eric.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
With Eric, I'd like you to call in next Monday
and do the Matt Rushmore Monday with us.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Okay, all sure, try all right, you could be the judge.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
We're looking for a new judge after I got robbed
last week.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
I'm not looking for a new judge.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I'm happy with our Joan. Let's go out to John John.
You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 11 (12:46):
Hi, just a.
Speaker 12 (12:49):
Couple of points on the Scovil thing. Being in the military,
it's like one guy can ruin a whole you know.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
Platoon or whatever.
Speaker 12 (13:00):
And if they would have brought in Scobell to the Brewers,
that could have upset the bullpen. And they got a
good team and the manager is doing a great job
bringing out the people and stuff like that, and I
just think they're keeping the team together because they play
(13:22):
so well together and to bring in Scobel. And the
other thing I wanted to talk about was miss they
bring in miz for like three or four innings and
the opposing team has three or four innings to get
used to the Polish lightning, and then they bring in
(13:43):
a closer who was pitching totally different and that throws
up their whole timing and everything else like that. So
just a couple of observations.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah, I'm out certain this Schoobale deal is going to
work out. I mean, the Dodgers have been a disaster
since they acquired him.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
And the Tigers haven't lost since.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
And now we've established that the Brewers were too good
to add Scooba because it would just mess everything up.
I understand why the Brewers wouldn't do that. There's no
point in doing that. They're not trying to win. They
might stumble into winning a World Series, but that team
is not trying to win. There is no reason to
trade for school Bowl a two month rental, give up
all those prospects, and then eventually, when the season's over,
(14:25):
he's going to be a Dodger and you have no
guarantee because baseball's a funny sport of winning a World
Series because.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
You get them.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
But what do you mean by they're not trying to win?
Because they're the exact team that I would say, they're
not going to resign them, so might as well take
the rental and win a World Series.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I would say if they were trying to win, they
would have given any amount of prospects because you have
a window right now to win a World Series. To
go get school Ball and prevent him from going to
the Dodgers and bolster your staff. Then do it, because
they know they can't sign school Bowl to the four
hundred million dollar contract he's going to command once the
season is over. Let's go out to Kevin in Dayton, Ohio.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
Go ahead, keV, Dude, I gotta tell you it's so
nice to have you back on radio.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
This is awesome.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Thank you so so.
Speaker 11 (15:06):
My thing is, if I'm offensive coordinator for the Zips
for one drive, I make sure you know, even if
the coach is telling me, you know, suggesting plays for
me as it were my my I'm in the quarterback.
You're going, dude, you're gonna audible to this, this, and this.
I'm telling you, man, you got it, you got.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
You gotta let it rip.
Speaker 11 (15:26):
You want to show of throwing your arm is go on,
man showing fifty yard pass.
Speaker 7 (15:31):
Let's go there. You go yeah again in his ear.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Wait, but he thinks you buy season tickets and you
have access to the headset.
Speaker 6 (15:39):
I mean no, I I think Kevin makes a good
point where if I'm buying season tickets for achron, part
of in this agreement has to be I do get
to audible someplace.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
But you're only getting the opening drive.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
I mean, the head coach is definitely wishing it's three
safe plays and it's a three and out right the
head coach.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
I'm in the quarterback there, and listen, nobody, I'm the
only one who's going to get blamed here.
Speaker 7 (16:03):
Just unleash it.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Just do whatever you want out there. If you ever
wanted to take a deep tride, now's the time, you think.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
He tells the season ticket holder, Hey, feel free to
punt on first down.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
They got a good quarterback to Reece Poffenbarger. Really, yeah,
he transferred from It's the new era of college of
college football where these guys have played everywhere. Yeah, he
started at Old Dominion, transferred to Albany, transferred to Miami.
Wow you twenty twenty four? Yeah, I bet there was
a time when Hurricanes fans thought he was going to
be the next guy.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
So when this kid graduates, is what's his answer? I mean,
where'd you go to? Like, say, Reeese Poffenbarger goes to
the NFL. Yes, and it's Sunday night football. He's starting.
Let's say he's starting for the Jets. You're getting the lineups.
Where does Reese poff and Gardner say he went? Yeah,
it was a poorly phrased question by me.
Speaker 6 (16:51):
Yes, I think so this is a case. He also
played at North Texas too, right, I think you just
have to list all the schools Coffee Gardner, Old Dominion, Albany, Miami,
North Texas, Akron.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
You don't take the best school.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
I mean, I think you take the school that you
last played for.
Speaker 9 (17:09):
Yeah, Dan, quick question, who is the better story twenty
years from now? The quarterback of Akron, who says, guys,
get this, when I was in college a fan picked
the play, or if you're on the defense of Robert
Morris saying we were so freaking bad Akron had a
fan pick their place against us. I think it's a
(17:29):
great Trump story to trump all stories twenty years from now.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
It's definitely the latter.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Absolutely. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Wait, so friends are sitting around and they're bragging about
how bad their college team was.
Speaker 9 (17:42):
Get this, Akron made a fan designed to play against us?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
What and they scored? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Dan, if I'm on this Robert Morris defense, oh god,
this is what I'm taking at the grave with me.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Here.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Never.
Speaker 6 (17:56):
You will never get me to admit that I was
on this Robert Morris defense.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Hey, Robert Morritz, good luck researching my tendencies.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
I'm eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We'll take
a quick time out.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Stu back to you. Thank you, Dan.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
You talk Akron football, the zips and the phone lines
light up. It's unbelievable. This is the thing that gets
them the line up eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
I am torn here because it's a whatever you want
to talk about Wednesday and is he has some things
that he would like to talk about.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
But I promise the callers I would go to their.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
Calls, right if your word?
Speaker 2 (20:40):
What should I do?
Speaker 10 (20:41):
Though?
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Go to the calls? I know, but I feel bad
doing that to you. Don't worry about it unless you
worry about it.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
The more time we have.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
By the way, the Dodgers good for baseball. I found
myself rooting against school ball and the Dodgers last night.
I did yeah, biggest Cup fan around. Let's go out
to Thomas in Arizona. Thomas, go ahead, You're on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (21:00):
Stu.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
How you doing good, Thomas?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
How are you? I'm doing all right?
Speaker 13 (21:04):
I have bad news for you. Though you put that
challenge out there to find that video clip between Rock
and Gemini, there is no archival footage of it. It
was a midweek game, so they do not have any.
Speaker 10 (21:17):
Footage of it.
Speaker 13 (21:20):
Footage of what footage of that home run from George Foster.
Speaker 10 (21:26):
Earlier?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yeah, the George Foster, the Big Red Machine.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
You also got to turn off your radio.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
Yeah, yeah, classic sports radio mistake.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Did I was say, I tell you when you called
in to turn down your radio just out of curiosity.
Speaker 10 (21:41):
No, I'm on.
Speaker 13 (21:41):
Speakerphone because when I move it over to the regular
it cuts out.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Okay, so wait, you searched everywhere for the footage of
the George Foster home run and you can find it.
Speaker 13 (21:52):
Couldn't find it. I even argued with Gemini when it
said it didn't exist. I was like, yeah, it happened
on this day.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
It was what is it?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
What does that fight sound like? I constantly fight with Ai,
not iverson AI. What does that fight sound like?
Speaker 6 (22:09):
Like?
Speaker 2 (22:09):
What are you telling Gemini? What are you demanding?
Speaker 12 (22:11):
Well?
Speaker 13 (22:12):
I turned around and told him this is when it happens.
It was again, and I had a witness that I'm
listening to live on radio, tell me it happened. I
was like, oh, I'm sorry, I was wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
Yeah, well I was wrong. Thomas.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
I'm geminis her.
Speaker 6 (22:27):
I love correcting AI.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, yes, it makes you feel smart.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
Right, Yeah, but then I then I I have this
moment of panic when I'm like, man, when AI takes over,
they're coming for me because I chastised them forgetting an
MVP list wrong.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I try to be very gentle with them.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Wait, are you saying that AI is keeping a list? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (22:45):
Oh yeah, I know people that every time they write
a prompt to AI, they make sure they say please
and thank you, just soay.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I remember I'm very nice to Alexa. Are you really yes,
because you're worried about the list? No, because Anthony's kind
of a jerk to her. I have to bounce things out,
even it out right. Let's go to Roger in Orange County. Roge,
go ahead, You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 6 (23:07):
Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 13 (23:08):
Stu?
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Is the Taylor question?
Speaker 12 (23:11):
St is the ink dry on the divorce papers?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Who's an Abby? Or with Dan.
Speaker 10 (23:20):
With the other show?
Speaker 14 (23:21):
You know, I'm still like holding out some hope, you know,
hopefully one day get one episode.
Speaker 10 (23:28):
I mean they took your name off the show man.
Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:31):
No, well I didn't know it when they did it,
but I do now, thank you. It's my show. I
don't care what anyone tells me. My name will always
be on that show. And I am talking to Dan.
I don't have an update on this. I will have
an update for you guys in the next week or
so because it is my hope as well, because I
know how much it means to the listeners, and it
means something to me and Dan that we will do
(23:52):
some shows together. So I hope we haven't done our
last show. I don't know if that's the case, but
there is no wink and I can't tell you if
it's dry or no.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
Did we get bait and switched by Roger? Because Roger's
call screen says lebron seventy six apathetical, Roger, do you
have a hypothetical?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Tell you whatever you want to talk about Wednesday? Yeah?
Speaker 14 (24:11):
Well, I mean, you guys are doing the same bits
out there. You don't like the mean stole your bit,
But moving on past. You guys got the same guest.
But no one could get Diana on all right soon
here my question.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
No one could get Diana on that much anymore.
Speaker 14 (24:24):
All Right, here's some typical sports radio. All right, I'm
gonna pick Lebron and Michael Jordan on my team. You
get the next five takes who you take in take
my call up there, Thank you, bud it.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
I like that, so Lebron and Michael.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
And by the way, there is no way that Dan
is putting Hogdale on the radio.
Speaker 7 (24:39):
It's just that you regret going to the college yet.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Kurgain maybe Hogdale?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
No, okay, no, I like the callers they can ask listen.
I am flattered that people care enough where they are
hopeful that me and Dan haven't done our last show.
I mean that's flattering, right, twenty years of doing this,
you try to find some meaning and we have touched
a lot of people and it means a lot up
to them.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
And I just don't have an.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Update that would uh, that would make him happy right now,
so or any sort of update.
Speaker 7 (25:06):
We did get bait and switched though.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Oh so he has Lebron and Michael and I get that,
all right.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
He bait and switched them. He said there'll be an
update next week.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
No, they won't two weeks.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
By the way, he didn't say hi.
Speaker 7 (25:21):
To me, so yeah, for him, that was hurtful.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
That was hurtful. You personalize that. Huh jeez? All right,
who would I.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Mean if you're gonna go through the trouble of saying
hi to Taylor.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yes, I'm an internal how to dan either though. I mean,
I'm taking Magic and Bird. Naturally, I'm taking Magic Bird.
I have to beat money.
Speaker 7 (25:47):
I've got my five.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
I got Michael and Lebron. Yeah, but I need a
defensive stopper. Magic and Larry aren't that. I might put
Joe Dumores on there. I might put Isaiah Thomas on there.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
I would absolutely put Kareemer Shack.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
I got to narrow this down, mind, Yes, all right,
I got Steph, I got Kobe, I got Larry Bird,
I got Tim Duncan, I got Shack.
Speaker 7 (26:13):
That team's beating whatever team you put Michael Jordan and
Lebron James.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
I mean Kobe, Yeah, but Lebron and Michael Yeah, I
mean Lebron, Michael Pippin. I could throw it, yeah, Iverson,
I could give you a Carl Alone Barkley.
Speaker 7 (26:26):
No, I'm good with these five right here.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
I've got a Michael clone in Kobe, and I've got
Steph Curry. Who is just giving any Lebron team absolute nightmares?
Speaker 6 (26:35):
Do you can do you consider putting Gerald Wilkins on
one of your spots, the Jordan stopper. I think Jordan
average like thirty three points a game against Gerald Wilkins.
By the way, we're not really stopping much.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
I don't think that was ever a phrase, the Jordan's stopped.
For the first time ever heard that with Kobe, it
was Ruben Patterson, of all people.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
If there's a close game and Jordan and Lebron are
on the same team in the same huddle, who you
drawing up to play for?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Like, who thinks they're getting the ball? Michael right, yes,
they both.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
Lebron can start with the ball to make him feel good,
but you're giving it to Jordan in the high.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Post, Jordan low post. I'm good with your five.
Speaker 7 (27:09):
Actually, I mean it's I mean, it's a ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Let me hear it again. Let me I forgot about Kobe.
That's the thing.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Steph Curry, Kobe Bryant, Larry Bird, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
All right, you've got the inside, you've got the outside.
I take out Steph and replace him with magic. What
this wasn't supposed to be a magic And Steph debates
it's just.
Speaker 7 (27:30):
The makeup of the team.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Like if magic, if you want to run and gun,
you're not gonna really do that with Shack. But if
you want to run and gun cool, you take Magic.
You want to beat everybody, you take Steph.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
I feel like Jordan in that scenario would be like,
I don't need lebron Just give me packs In, give
me Horace Grant, give me Scottie, and give me Bill
Wennington and I'll beat your five.
Speaker 6 (27:49):
Or would it be like would it be like Jimmy
Butler when Jimmy Butler was on the Timberwolves and he
just grabbed four random people to be like I could
beat Andrew Wiggins in Karl Anthony towns.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Is he had a couple of football questions and also
wants to take us back in time, So.
Speaker 5 (28:03):
Well, get the harps ready. I got a couple of
remember Whens for you. I really only had one. I
don't even know if I'll have time for the whole thing,
but I have one. Since speaking of Dan and Stugattz,
do you remember when you were the smartest man in
the world when it came to Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yes, I was ahead of I was ahead of everyone.
Can you. I called him a quack. I said he
hasn't accomplished anything.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
He's accomplished a lot since I said that, but at
the time, I was like, you know, people were buying Tesla's,
and the Tesla's were showing up to people's houses a
year after they purchased the Tesla and they were broke it,
And I'm like, this guy, you know, he's so smart,
and what he likes to do is toy with people's
emotions because his words have consequences, and he would use
(28:46):
his words to drive up the stock or drive down
the stock.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
And I basically said he's overrated.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
He's a guy who hasn't really accomplished nearly as much
as you would think based on the.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
Coverage that he gets. Frut Yes, absolutely, and also Stu.
Speaker 6 (28:58):
I think this was right around the time where he
just kept pitching that train concept, the hyper loop, where
he was like, Yep, this train's going to change the world.
And I think your point was, well, then build the
train already.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
No, he talks about conceptually, Yes, but since then he
has figured out how to get to space so well
it kind of checkmated me. But yes, there was a
super bullet train that would get you from Miami to
New York in like an hour, and like, hey, it's great,
talk about it in theory. How about you get the
train done. He loves to talk. He doesn't get much done.
(29:29):
But that's changed since it Well.
Speaker 7 (29:31):
Yes and no, because what if I told you?
Speaker 5 (29:33):
What did you tell me before that he created or
a spaceship or a company that can fly rockets into space?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yes, yeah, what if I told you?
Speaker 7 (29:41):
There's even more evidence.
Speaker 5 (29:42):
That you're correct, because yesterday, I believe it was yesterday,
might have been earlier.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Today, a SpaceX.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Rocket crashed into the Moon going at fifty four hundred
miles per hour.
Speaker 7 (29:55):
Wow, into the moon.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
He's a fraud.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
Don't mess with the moon man, leave it alone.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
So he builds big, great companies. The problem is the
products don't work exactly.
Speaker 7 (30:10):
He is the I don't know, the billionaire version of
the big baller brand.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
At the time, though when I said that, everyone objected.
Everyone was mad at me there like you're out of
your mind.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
It time I got to tell you.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
When people reach out to me and talk to me
about the show, what I get most is, man, you
were ahead of your time on Elambak.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
There you go, anytime you get a chance to brag
about that, you should. So I'm just letting you know,
a SpaceX rocket crashed into.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
The moon makes sense.
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Fraud.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Yeah, this one is.
Speaker 7 (30:39):
More a little bit for it.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
They took this along.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
This one's a little bit more for Taylor and Mikey.
Do you guys remember when the Cleveland Indians and Albert
Bell had this crazy corked bat.
Speaker 7 (30:52):
Incident in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
So I was born in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Okay, so you don't.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
Remember, so he didn't come out of the wombit baseball.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
It's one of the craziest stories I've ever seen in
my life. Seriously, sports are not sports like it really is.
So Ricardo and I were just replaced by Elon Musk's
rocket crashing into the moon.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
I mean, I was, do you get your money back
if you crash into the moon?
Speaker 7 (31:12):
I mean, you better get I don't. I have no
idea who would be trying to get their money back,
That's what I'm wondering.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
It's a good point, man, the families. I mean, it's expensive.
Speaker 7 (31:21):
You know, there weren't people like in it.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Oh. I thought it was one of those casual trait you.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Know yet it as a two car collision.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Yeah, I had fifty five thousand miles an hour or whatever.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
Into the moon. Nice pile up.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
He's making fun of it.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I thought he could take people to the moon.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
But in your scenario, yeah, they're getting their money back posthumously,
you're getting their money back. But yeah, I was talking
to Ricardo before the show, and I was what seventeen
years old at the time, so I should have remembered this.
But there was an incident in nineteen ninety four where
an umpire a bat from Albert Bell and put it
(32:02):
away to check on it later because they thought it
was corked. Yes, this next part is the most insane
baseball story I have ever heard. Okay, I'm just gonna
read off with Wikipedia here. The Indians, knowing that the
bat was indeed corked, dispatched relief pitcher Jason Grimsley to
retrieve the bat. Grimsly took a bat belonging to Indians
(32:23):
player Paul Sorrento and accessed the area above the false
ceiling in the clubhouse and crawled across with a flashlight
in his mouth until he reached the umpire's room. He
switched Bell's bat with Sorrento's and returned to the clubhouse.
During the sixth inning, the umpire's custodian noticed clumps of
(32:44):
ceiling tile on the floor of the umpire's room, plus
twisted metal brackets in the ceiling, so it clearly didn't
cover tracks very well, and after the game, Phillips noticed
the bats were different. When he saw that the replacement
bat was not as shiny and also was stamped with
Sorrento signature, the Chicago police were called and the White
(33:04):
Sox threatened charges against the burglar. Yes, an investigation that
Saturday was carried out by a former FBI agent flown
in by Major League Baseball. The equipment room was dusted
for fingerprints, and the path the burglar took was discovered.
You have got to be kidding me that they went
all mission impossible into the ceiling ye to try. I mean,
(33:28):
there's never been more proof that baseball is just a
sport of cheaters than this ride here. Everybody knew he
was cheating, but he's like, no, no, let's commit a
crime so that we can cover up this cheating.
Speaker 7 (33:41):
That it's first of all, I was shocked that I
didn't know the details of that.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
That's when baseball was baseball.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
But Taylor, I would watch I would watch a ninety
minute documentary about that. So on recreate the entire It's
the craziest baseball story, maybe the craziest sports story I've
ever heard.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
What's on is it's the second craziest story involving Albert
Bell was the first check out the story about kids
trick or treating in his neighborhood.
Speaker 6 (34:06):
Yes, as you checked that out. We have an update.
In this Cubs game. P Crow Armstrong just hit another
home run, crushed it to right field. Five to one.
Cubs three for three with two home runs.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
Going into this series, Otani was the MVP. And if
the Cubs sweep the Dodgers, yeah, MVP check his bat.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
And why this is why the Dodgers are good for baseball.
I'm telling you your hate watching right now. You are,
it's great, it's fantastic. They're stacked, and you want them
to lose.
Speaker 6 (34:35):
No, I I'm gonna whisper this because I don't want
this to be a public take. Really, I think the
Dodgers are kind of old, and the Dodgers might kind
of stink. Why'd you have to whisper that because I
know what's gonna happen. The Yankees are gonna make it
to the World Series from the al the Dodgers are
(34:56):
gonna make it to the World Series, and then we're
gonna get swept and people are gonna re play. But
it's tougher to replay a clip if I was whispering in.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
It, you know, put it on the poll? Is your
name on the bat? A debt giveaway? Seriously?
Speaker 7 (35:09):
Were they thinking? Talk about a poorly thought out play it?

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Tim Kirchin get to join us at about twelve minutes here.
Hogdale goe to join us right after that, very much
looking forward to that. If you're not familiar with Hogdale's work,
I don't need to tell people who Tim Kirchin is.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Do I have to tell people who Hogdale is? Taylor?
Speaker 1 (36:00):
Yeah, Yeah, he's a guy who does play by play
for Barstool of every single He's a one sixty two
er of every single Red Sock game. And he's crazy. Okay,
I'm not certain he should be doing it. People pay
a lot of money for the rights of the Red
Sox game. But Hogdale is doing it nonetheless. So he
will join us coming up in around four twenty five.
Taylor has two games?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Is he we get to choose? Go ahead, Taylor, what
are our choices today?
Speaker 6 (36:23):
So we could do do me a favor? Or we
could do a new game inspired by Goldilocks and the
Three Bears, where we go through all the college football
teams in the top twenty five preseason coaches poll and
we say, if they're too high, too low, we're just right.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Do me a favor.
Speaker 7 (36:39):
It is it's a terrible way.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
The other one I'm thinking too high, too low?
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Yes, right, Goldilocks, Yeah, just right, Yeah, no, I'm thinking
about Goldilocks.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
It's not the game.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
He was anticipating that we would choose, and I would
tell you know your audience.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
Of course, me and Mike, you are going to choose that.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Which which game? Taylor?
Speaker 6 (37:05):
I heard first.
Speaker 7 (37:07):
He just wanted to do me a favor, a favorite.
We're never going to play that other game.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Okay, we can all.
Speaker 6 (37:12):
Agree, Ohio, let's play that other Ohio state at one too, right,
just right? I need sired Sam talks here. They didn't
want to blame Sam, but I heard Sam talk.
Speaker 11 (37:22):
Did it to me earlier.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
I was trying to do his job.
Speaker 7 (37:28):
Who is going to kick us off or do me
a favor?
Speaker 2 (37:31):
I will all right, thank you?
Speaker 3 (37:34):
Do me a favorite?
Speaker 2 (37:35):
HBO.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
No good teams on hard Knocks.
Speaker 8 (37:38):
Okay, hard Knocks is so much better when it's a
bunch of bottom beaters all fighting for roster spots, don't
I don't need to see them getting super Bowl rings.
I don't care about. Hey, this guy's really good. Yeah,
we know they won the super Bowl. Show me the
bottom featers. That's what I want to watch.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Who is this year's team on hord Dock Seahawks. It's
the Seahawks.
Speaker 6 (37:58):
Really that would explain while they were getting Super Bowl rnks.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
And I haven't watched it. What do you mean? I know,
but he just said that.
Speaker 6 (38:06):
By the way, just right, I think just right?
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Where are they right? Five? Low?
Speaker 4 (38:14):
Too low?
Speaker 6 (38:17):
I'm with Mikey. The appeal for hard knocks is seeing
the dysfunction and too much. Right now we're having too
many teams have to say. I saw Baker Mayfield talking
about his Quarterback show and he was like, I got
final approval, clips went out, and it's like, I don't
really want to watch a show where Baker Mayfield is
the director.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
That's I feel like Seahawks are just generally boring, Like
I don't really there's nothing about Sam Donald I really
need to know other than hey, can he win a
primetime game?
Speaker 7 (38:45):
Obviously he can?
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Now winning is boring.
Speaker 7 (38:47):
I guess.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
Did you just confuse Sam Donald with Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 7 (38:53):
Oh, yes I did, Sam Donald was, yes, I did.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (38:59):
Mediocre quarterback that turned good are very interchangeable, and you
were laughing at me.
Speaker 6 (39:04):
I can go next for doing me a favor. So
Freddy Peralta reportedly had to arrange a meeting between Francisco
and Door and Juan Soto because their relationship had gotten
that freight in New York on the Mets, Lynn, Dori
and Soto.
Speaker 3 (39:18):
Do me a favor.
Speaker 6 (39:18):
Figure it out. It's baseball, Like what your personalities aside?
You guys are on a bad team. Start winning.
Speaker 7 (39:24):
I'm with you.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Is he have on? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (39:27):
Do me a favor, Jackson Dark, Get over yourself, man,
Like this guy hasn't won or done anything.
Speaker 5 (39:33):
And then in practice today apparently he scored a touchdown
and then threw the football, flick the football out at
the helmet of one of his defenders.
Speaker 7 (39:42):
I'm like, what are you doing? Man?
Speaker 5 (39:44):
You should be I mean, your teammates's best friend right now,
because they're all supporting you and you really haven't done
anything yet and everybody's labeling you a star.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
Come on, Jackson Dark, do me a favor tomorrow. Let's
play too high, too low?
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Or just rights?
Speaker 2 (40:02):
We chose the wrong game.
Speaker 6 (40:05):
A and MN eight too low.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
I think it just rights.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. We start in
a very strange place today. I'm very excited for today's show.
We have Tim Kirchin and in nour number two. But
we start in the strangest of places a place I've
never started before, Akron. Ohioh Lebron tak Yeah, I'm gonna
take it from here.
Speaker 6 (01:11):
No, no, no, no, I'll take that ball. I'll take
that ball right back from you.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:15):
Thanks.
Speaker 6 (01:16):
Is there anything Akron can do to interest you guys
in some Zips football this year?
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Not really? No? Is that the home of Jason Taylor,
by the way.
Speaker 7 (01:25):
That's where he went to school. Yeah, yeah, Akron Zips. No,
I don't think so far. Nothing.
Speaker 6 (01:30):
So that's exactly what Akron thought, and they said the
ante must be upped this season. Right, So what Akron
did is they introduced a new promotion in which a
season ticket holder will get to script the opening drive
of Akron's home opener against Robert Morris. The promotion is
(01:52):
called the Offensive Coordinator of the Game.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
Wow the OC huh wait wait wait wait wait, So
one of the season ticket holders will just get to
script the opening drive of the home opener, not every
home game, just the home opener for right now.
Speaker 6 (02:06):
Yes, correct, the home opener against Robert Morris. All current
season ticket holders will be automatically entered into a random
drawing for every new season ticket holder. A current one
successfully refers, they'll receive additional entries, and right now it's
all the buzz on social media. It'sat You got people
from all over the country who play this college football
(02:27):
video game saying what they do is in that hard.
Let me buy some Acron season I think it's like
eighty dollars to get Acron season tickets.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
But I was going to ask you how much.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Normally this is easy's role with a follow up, but
I do have a couple of follow ups. Please price
out four season tickets to Acron football this year. I
just want to see how much they cost it. Also,
how bad is Robert Morris at football?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Look? I need to know what was the record last
year for Robert Morris?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Meaning are they really putting this game in jeopardy by
letting a season ticket holder script the opening drive of
the first game at home against Robert Morris?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
They have to be bad.
Speaker 7 (03:03):
Robert Morris was three and nine less season, okay?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
And what was Acron?
Speaker 7 (03:06):
That's a better.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah, Mikey, I would say this.
Speaker 8 (03:11):
Most people are like, oh man, I'm going flee, flick
or hail Mary? Why other zip I'm gonna zag? I
hope they have a fullback. I hope they're ready to
pound the rock because I'm making it like an eighteen
play drive here.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
I'm gonna make it last.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Really full back dives. I'm looking to get a job
out of this time.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Yes, so I'm on the go zips website right now.
The cheapest season ticket in section U twoh one seventy
five dollars. I kind of overshot it saying eighty five dollars.
But Mikey, you'll actually access Yeah, You'll be working with
head coach Joe Moorehead and he will help you design
(03:51):
design the place. My thinking though, Joe Moorehead knows how
much of a gimmick this is, like, no football guy
is signing up for this where Joe Schmoe's coming off
the street. There is no way he's rooting for success
on that first drive.
Speaker 8 (04:07):
Right, Former Fordham head coach, I'm all in, let's go
Joe Morehead.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, but Morehead has final say, Dan Bayer has something
he has perked up here. He is excited about this topic.
Speaker 9 (04:18):
Yes, yeah, despite Robert Morris being three to nine in
the NEC. Again, this is not FBS, but in the FCS,
I still think that the drive will amount to ZIP
points for whoever designs it's for Akron.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
So you're saying Akron can afford to do this and
not really jeopardize the game.
Speaker 9 (04:36):
Oh, I'm also saying that Robert Morris may be bad,
but there's no way that they're gonna let some amateur
go in and put points on the board of the
opening drive.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Like there's got to be a system, right, because there's
got to be a little astis by design the first drive.
I would imagine, first of all, if I'm this coach,
I'm getting it written into my contract that if we
have a terrible season because we're starting off with this
terrible idea, yeah this year doesn't not count for me
and I deserve more money, right. But also, there's no
way they're actually going to be able to create a
(05:06):
drive for themselves. The coats are going to be like,
all right, first play this player that play, Second play
this player that play, and then just go from there
because there's no chance at heck, he's like anybody's gonna
really get.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
To, you know, pick the plays.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Yes, Della, depending on how that first drive goes, is
there any scenario where that guy gets on staff? Because
I think in my mind, I.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Mean if they're up seven to nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
If they're up seven to nothing and they have a
twenty five play scripted methodical drive where they're just driving
down on Robert Morris, I think that guy has to
be considered for the second drive too.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I think Morehead gets fired on the spot.
Speaker 9 (05:43):
I think, yeah, that's where I'm thinking, right, yes, or
if it fails, do you just fire Morehead or the
social media guy who came up with this idea?
Speaker 8 (05:53):
Yeah, conspiracy theory.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Did Bill Belichick run this last year with those opening drives?
Speaker 6 (06:00):
It was a great opening drop.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Because it went all downhill from there.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, but he's saying a fan drew it up because
every other drive's stunk.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
So I'm looking at akron schedule from last season and
what I'm what I'm realizing right now. They went to Lincoln,
Nebraska and played the corn Huskers. They lost sixty eight nothing.
I think this is a case of Akron realizing, hey,
we might get we might find ourselves in a lou
Garry Wally Pip situation where if we get this offensive
(06:30):
coordinator for a game. One, he's working for theoretically free here,
but two we might find somebody who who could actually
put some points up against some of these power out
schools like Nebraska.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
He's literally paying you to work, literally buying a season ticket,
He's paying you to work.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yep, that's the way I like.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
The due gotts is strong en achery.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
What are the worst and best case scenarios here?
Speaker 5 (06:53):
Right? Because if I'm picked for this, I am picking
a trick play on the first play and it's gonna
end up in a touchdown if everything works out correct.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Meaning if you're truly picking, if you have the run
of the mill, meaning it's not option A, option B,
you get to pick any play from their playbook.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
I would say, hey, for any playbook.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
Yes, I would say, hey, coach, what's the best trick
play that could result in a you know, a fifty
or a huge game?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I purchase season tickets. I'm not asking the coach anything.
I'm just running what I want to run.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
To be fair, you spend seventy five dollars, I.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Mean, so what that's a promotion?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
I mean and if that works out, then everybody's happy, right,
Coach doesn't have to worry about the rest of the
Drive team's happy.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
What a start to our home season? Worst case scenario,
what if it's like a seventy year old grandma who
wins this opportunity and then she comes in and she's
just like, no idea what to do, just kind of
pick and plays willy nilly. I feel like that's why
it can't be a random draw, Like it has to
be somebody that has a lot more football knowledge than
(07:56):
somebody who's just an acron fan.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
You like to fancy yourself as someone who could call
the plays, right, yeah, call the entire game.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
I could redo their entire play.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But by the remainder of the season tickets they have, Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
It gives us more chances.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Is he you showed me a red flag though, because
you said you want to start the game with a
trick play. If you're Robert Morris and you see you
coming in to be the offensive coordinator for the game one,
if you're Robert Morris, like this is ultimate Bolton board material. There,
Akron is telling you you're so bad, We're gonna have
somebody from Section two seventeen road w coming to call play.
(08:31):
But they are that bad, but you're giving them extra motivation.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Right, You don't want to do that to Robert Morris, right.
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Is he? Well, if you're Robert Morris. Yeah, everybody knows.
You don't want to give Robert Morris extra an extra
preparhurrection for a week.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I mean, they're a different team when they have a
chip on their shoulder.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Everyone know what happens when you're aggressive, When you're angry
and you're aggressive, you overplay something.
Speaker 7 (08:52):
Oh no, ball's not going over there. They're a dude
wide open thirty yards down the field.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
But when you're bringing this guy off the street to
be the offensive courdinator, everybody's first thought is, let's start
this game with a trick play. And that's exactly what
Robert Morris is expecting. Yeah, that's why this coordinator business is.
It's chest not checkers.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Yes, I think you know, I think he's right.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
No, I think a couple of full back dives just
so they think, okay, Robert Morris is like, hey, nothing
much get to change here. This is what Accrod always does,
the full back dive, and then you break out the
trick plays on third down and third and long.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I would also say, guys, he.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Needs to be there on install day.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
It's our dad.
Speaker 7 (09:29):
No, that's okay.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
If I'm the if I win this contest, I don't know,
if I want to do a trick play right off
the bat, I wouldn't do the full back dives because
I don't want it to be one and done, because
if I score, then it's done. Like I want to
at least call I want to get into a rhythm.
I want to call more plays. I don't want it
to just be one play and if we score a touchdown,
that's it. I want to string this thing out right.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
To a couple of five yard outs.
Speaker 7 (09:49):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, just chunks, you know, take time off
the clock.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
How can they see the trick play coming if other
people are thinking differently, right other they could say, oh yeah,
he's probably gonna try to run it up the middle
and then give us a trick play on third down, No,
right off the bat, seventy yards touchdown, and then and
then you do it to the coach and say, hey,
let me get the second drive.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
So Akron, I'm looking at their schedule again from last season. Yeah,
do you know how many points the Akron Zips scored
their first eight quarters?
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Zip zips?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Zips?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Really?
Speaker 7 (10:24):
So this is an audition, This is not it's not
a gimmick.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
Well, it can't get worse, right, They lose Week one
to Wyoming ten to nothing. Then they go on the road,
like I mentioned, to Nebraska, they lose sixty eight nothing,
and then Week three is when they get their first touchdown,
a big fourteen point quarter, you know, in an eventual
thirty one to twenty eight loss to UAB the Blazers.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I mean, this OC has to be sweating right now.
He does.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
He sets such a little bar that a fast season
ticket holder could come in and exceed it and take.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
His jumb Taylor do a little bit more research of
those first how many games was it until they scored
or quarters?
Speaker 6 (11:00):
Third game?
Speaker 7 (11:01):
Third game?
Speaker 5 (11:01):
Of those two and a half games, how many trick
plays did they run? I'm gonna guess none.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
I'll have to go back and look at the TA.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You just want to run a flea flicker.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
You got to get a little bit more thoughtful than
a flee flicker. But yeah, something in that neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
There are two calls on the board.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I'll get to him in just a second eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox. I know I said I
would stop whatever we're doing to talk about whatever it
is you want to talk about, But I talking Zips
football right now.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I don't know, Eric, zip zip it up.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Eric wants to talk about Mount Rushmore Mondays, and I
feel like that's a a fan who deserves his time.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
You're right, let's go to Eric. Eric, go ahead, you're
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (11:41):
Hey, guys, I really enjoyed that Mount Rushmore brick down
last week. But I had I had one am in
one correction?
Speaker 7 (11:49):
What's that?
Speaker 10 (11:51):
Sticking with the fearsome Forsome and I would go Merlin
Olsen on Little House on the Prairie.
Speaker 7 (11:57):
M I would never see it.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
But okay, okay, Uh, you've been sitting on that for
a while. Man. Yeah, that's the.
Speaker 10 (12:06):
I can't remember which one of you picked Terry Crews,
but you Yeah, yeah, Mikey Camacho for Mediocracy.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
That's another good one. Yeah, thank you Eric.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
With Eric, I'd like you to call in next Monday
and do the Matt Rushmore Monday with us.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Okay, all sure, try all right, you could be the judge.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
We're looking for a new judge after I got robbed
last week.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
I'm not looking for a new judge.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I'm happy with our Joan. Let's go out to John John.
You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 11 (12:46):
Hi, just a.
Speaker 12 (12:49):
Couple of points on the Scovil thing. Being in the military,
it's like one guy can ruin a whole you know.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
Platoon or whatever.
Speaker 12 (13:00):
And if they would have brought in Scobell to the Brewers,
that could have upset the bullpen. And they got a
good team and the manager is doing a great job
bringing out the people and stuff like that, and I
just think they're keeping the team together because they play
(13:22):
so well together and to bring in Scobel. And the
other thing I wanted to talk about was miss they
bring in miz for like three or four innings and
the opposing team has three or four innings to get
used to the Polish lightning, and then they bring in
(13:43):
a closer who was pitching totally different and that throws
up their whole timing and everything else like that. So
just a couple of observations.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah, I'm out certain this Schoobale deal is going to
work out. I mean, the Dodgers have been a disaster
since they acquired him.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
And the Tigers haven't lost since.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
And now we've established that the Brewers were too good
to add Scooba because it would just mess everything up.
I understand why the Brewers wouldn't do that. There's no
point in doing that. They're not trying to win. They
might stumble into winning a World Series, but that team
is not trying to win. There is no reason to
trade for school Bowl a two month rental, give up
all those prospects, and then eventually, when the season's over,
(14:25):
he's going to be a Dodger and you have no
guarantee because baseball's a funny sport of winning a World
Series because.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
You get them.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
But what do you mean by they're not trying to win?
Because they're the exact team that I would say, they're
not going to resign them, so might as well take
the rental and win a World Series.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I would say if they were trying to win, they
would have given any amount of prospects because you have
a window right now to win a World Series. To
go get school Ball and prevent him from going to
the Dodgers and bolster your staff. Then do it, because
they know they can't sign school Bowl to the four
hundred million dollar contract he's going to command once the
season is over. Let's go out to Kevin in Dayton, Ohio.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
Go ahead, keV, Dude, I gotta tell you it's so
nice to have you back on radio.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
This is awesome.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Thank you so so.
Speaker 11 (15:06):
My thing is, if I'm offensive coordinator for the Zips
for one drive, I make sure you know, even if
the coach is telling me, you know, suggesting plays for
me as it were my my I'm in the quarterback.
You're going, dude, you're gonna audible to this, this, and this.
I'm telling you, man, you got it, you got.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
You gotta let it rip.
Speaker 11 (15:26):
You want to show of throwing your arm is go on,
man showing fifty yard pass.
Speaker 7 (15:31):
Let's go there. You go yeah again in his ear.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Wait, but he thinks you buy season tickets and you
have access to the headset.
Speaker 6 (15:39):
I mean no, I I think Kevin makes a good
point where if I'm buying season tickets for achron, part
of in this agreement has to be I do get
to audible someplace.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
But you're only getting the opening drive.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
I mean, the head coach is definitely wishing it's three
safe plays and it's a three and out right the
head coach.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
I'm in the quarterback there, and listen, nobody, I'm the
only one who's going to get blamed here.
Speaker 7 (16:03):
Just unleash it.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Just do whatever you want out there. If you ever
wanted to take a deep tride, now's the time, you think.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
He tells the season ticket holder, Hey, feel free to
punt on first down.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
They got a good quarterback to Reece Poffenbarger. Really, yeah,
he transferred from It's the new era of college of
college football where these guys have played everywhere. Yeah, he
started at Old Dominion, transferred to Albany, transferred to Miami.
Wow you twenty twenty four? Yeah, I bet there was
a time when Hurricanes fans thought he was going to
be the next guy.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
So when this kid graduates, is what's his answer? I mean,
where'd you go to? Like, say, Reeese Poffenbarger goes to
the NFL. Yes, and it's Sunday night football. He's starting.
Let's say he's starting for the Jets. You're getting the lineups.
Where does Reese poff and Gardner say he went? Yeah,
it was a poorly phrased question by me.
Speaker 6 (16:51):
Yes, I think so this is a case. He also
played at North Texas too, right, I think you just
have to list all the schools Coffee Gardner, Old Dominion, Albany, Miami,
North Texas, Akron.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
You don't take the best school.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
I mean, I think you take the school that you
last played for.
Speaker 9 (17:09):
Yeah, Dan, quick question, who is the better story twenty
years from now? The quarterback of Akron, who says, guys,
get this, when I was in college a fan picked
the play, or if you're on the defense of Robert
Morris saying we were so freaking bad Akron had a
fan pick their place against us. I think it's a
(17:29):
great Trump story to trump all stories twenty years from now.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
It's definitely the latter.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Absolutely. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Wait, so friends are sitting around and they're bragging about
how bad their college team was.
Speaker 9 (17:42):
Get this, Akron made a fan designed to play against us?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
What and they scored? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Dan, if I'm on this Robert Morris defense, oh god,
this is what I'm taking at the grave with me.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Here.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Never.
Speaker 6 (17:56):
You will never get me to admit that I was
on this Robert Morris defense.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Hey, Robert Morritz, good luck researching my tendencies.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
I'm eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We'll take
a quick time out.

Speaker 7 (19:38):
Yesterday.
Speaker 9 (19:39):
Tests confirmed that Walker will not be able to play
for the Falcons after suffering the injury. On Tuesday, Kansas
City Chiefs dropped the name of the naming rights sponsor
from their stadium, so once again their home facility is
known as Arrowhead Stadium. The Preakness Stakes will be moved
one week later starting in twenty twenty seven, and will
be run on a Sunday. The move now makes the
race three weeks removed from the Kentucky Derby, and Live
(20:00):
Golf says they have struck a deal with a lead
investor that will help keep the tour alive after twenty
twenty six, and a statement of the tour said the
players on liv will become the majority stakeholders of the tour.
Deal has not yet been finalized. They say a timetable
of possibly finalizing a deal in September is realistic.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Stu back to you. Thank you, Dan.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
You talk Akron football, the zips and the phone lines
light up. It's unbelievable. This is the thing that gets
them the line up eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
I am torn here because it's a whatever you want
to talk about Wednesday and is he has some things
that he would like to talk about.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
But I promise the callers I would go to their.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
Calls, right if your word?
Speaker 2 (20:40):
What should I do?
Speaker 10 (20:41):
Though?
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Go to the calls? I know, but I feel bad
doing that to you. Don't worry about it unless you
worry about it.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
The more time we have.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
By the way, the Dodgers good for baseball. I found
myself rooting against school ball and the Dodgers last night.
I did yeah, biggest Cup fan around. Let's go out
to Thomas in Arizona. Thomas, go ahead, You're on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (21:00):
Stu.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
How you doing good, Thomas?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
How are you? I'm doing all right?
Speaker 13 (21:04):
I have bad news for you. Though you put that
challenge out there to find that video clip between Rock
and Gemini, there is no archival footage of it. It
was a midweek game, so they do not have any.
Speaker 10 (21:17):
Footage of it.
Speaker 13 (21:20):
Footage of what footage of that home run from George Foster.
Speaker 10 (21:26):
Earlier?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yeah, the George Foster, the Big Red Machine.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
You also got to turn off your radio.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
Yeah, yeah, classic sports radio mistake.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Did I was say, I tell you when you called
in to turn down your radio just out of curiosity.
Speaker 10 (21:41):
No, I'm on.
Speaker 13 (21:41):
Speakerphone because when I move it over to the regular
it cuts out.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Okay, so wait, you searched everywhere for the footage of
the George Foster home run and you can find it.
Speaker 13 (21:52):
Couldn't find it. I even argued with Gemini when it
said it didn't exist. I was like, yeah, it happened
on this day.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
It was what is it?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
What does that fight sound like? I constantly fight with Ai,
not iverson AI. What does that fight sound like?
Speaker 6 (22:09):
Like?
Speaker 2 (22:09):
What are you telling Gemini? What are you demanding?
Speaker 12 (22:11):
Well?
Speaker 13 (22:12):
I turned around and told him this is when it happens.
It was again, and I had a witness that I'm
listening to live on radio, tell me it happened. I
was like, oh, I'm sorry, I was wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
Yeah, well I was wrong. Thomas.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
I'm geminis her.
Speaker 6 (22:27):
I love correcting AI.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, yes, it makes you feel smart.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
Right, Yeah, but then I then I I have this
moment of panic when I'm like, man, when AI takes over,
they're coming for me because I chastised them forgetting an
MVP list wrong.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I try to be very gentle with them.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Wait, are you saying that AI is keeping a list? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (22:45):
Oh yeah, I know people that every time they write
a prompt to AI, they make sure they say please
and thank you, just soay.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I remember I'm very nice to Alexa. Are you really yes,
because you're worried about the list? No, because Anthony's kind
of a jerk to her. I have to bounce things out,
even it out right. Let's go to Roger in Orange County. Roge,
go ahead, You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 6 (23:07):
Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 13 (23:08):
Stu?
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Is the Taylor question?
Speaker 12 (23:11):
St is the ink dry on the divorce papers?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Who's an Abby? Or with Dan.
Speaker 10 (23:20):
With the other show?
Speaker 14 (23:21):
You know, I'm still like holding out some hope, you know,
hopefully one day get one episode.
Speaker 10 (23:28):
I mean they took your name off the show man.
Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:31):
No, well I didn't know it when they did it,
but I do now, thank you. It's my show. I
don't care what anyone tells me. My name will always
be on that show. And I am talking to Dan.
I don't have an update on this. I will have
an update for you guys in the next week or
so because it is my hope as well, because I
know how much it means to the listeners, and it
means something to me and Dan that we will do
(23:52):
some shows together. So I hope we haven't done our
last show. I don't know if that's the case, but
there is no wink and I can't tell you if
it's dry or no.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
Did we get bait and switched by Roger? Because Roger's
call screen says lebron seventy six apathetical, Roger, do you
have a hypothetical?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Tell you whatever you want to talk about Wednesday? Yeah?
Speaker 14 (24:11):
Well, I mean, you guys are doing the same bits
out there. You don't like the mean stole your bit,
But moving on past. You guys got the same guest.
But no one could get Diana on all right soon
here my question.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
No one could get Diana on that much anymore.
Speaker 14 (24:24):
All Right, here's some typical sports radio. All right, I'm
gonna pick Lebron and Michael Jordan on my team. You
get the next five takes who you take in take
my call up there, Thank you, bud it.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
I like that, so Lebron and Michael.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
And by the way, there is no way that Dan
is putting Hogdale on the radio.
Speaker 7 (24:39):
It's just that you regret going to the college yet.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Kurgain maybe Hogdale?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
No, okay, no, I like the callers they can ask listen.
I am flattered that people care enough where they are
hopeful that me and Dan haven't done our last show.
I mean that's flattering, right, twenty years of doing this,
you try to find some meaning and we have touched
a lot of people and it means a lot up
to them.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
And I just don't have an.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Update that would uh, that would make him happy right now,
so or any sort of update.
Speaker 7 (25:06):
We did get bait and switched though.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Oh so he has Lebron and Michael and I get that,
all right.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
He bait and switched them. He said there'll be an
update next week.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
No, they won't two weeks.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
By the way, he didn't say hi.
Speaker 7 (25:21):
To me, so yeah, for him, that was hurtful.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
That was hurtful. You personalize that. Huh jeez? All right,
who would I.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Mean if you're gonna go through the trouble of saying
hi to Taylor.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yes, I'm an internal how to dan either though. I mean,
I'm taking Magic and Bird. Naturally, I'm taking Magic Bird.
I have to beat money.
Speaker 7 (25:47):
I've got my five.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
I got Michael and Lebron. Yeah, but I need a
defensive stopper. Magic and Larry aren't that. I might put
Joe Dumores on there. I might put Isaiah Thomas on there.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
I would absolutely put Kareemer Shack.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
I got to narrow this down, mind, Yes, all right,
I got Steph, I got Kobe, I got Larry Bird,
I got Tim Duncan, I got Shack.
Speaker 7 (26:13):
That team's beating whatever team you put Michael Jordan and
Lebron James.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
I mean Kobe, Yeah, but Lebron and Michael Yeah, I
mean Lebron, Michael Pippin. I could throw it, yeah, Iverson,
I could give you a Carl Alone Barkley.
Speaker 7 (26:26):
No, I'm good with these five right here.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
I've got a Michael clone in Kobe, and I've got
Steph Curry. Who is just giving any Lebron team absolute nightmares?
Speaker 6 (26:35):
Do you can do you consider putting Gerald Wilkins on
one of your spots, the Jordan stopper. I think Jordan
average like thirty three points a game against Gerald Wilkins.
By the way, we're not really stopping much.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
I don't think that was ever a phrase, the Jordan's stopped.
For the first time ever heard that with Kobe, it
was Ruben Patterson, of all people.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
If there's a close game and Jordan and Lebron are
on the same team in the same huddle, who you
drawing up to play for?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Like, who thinks they're getting the ball? Michael right, yes,
they both.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
Lebron can start with the ball to make him feel good,
but you're giving it to Jordan in the high.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Post, Jordan low post. I'm good with your five.
Speaker 7 (27:09):
Actually, I mean it's I mean, it's a ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Let me hear it again. Let me I forgot about Kobe.
That's the thing.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Steph Curry, Kobe Bryant, Larry Bird, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
All right, you've got the inside, you've got the outside.
I take out Steph and replace him with magic. What
this wasn't supposed to be a magic And Steph debates
it's just.
Speaker 7 (27:30):
The makeup of the team.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Like if magic, if you want to run and gun,
you're not gonna really do that with Shack. But if
you want to run and gun cool, you take Magic.
You want to beat everybody, you take Steph.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
I feel like Jordan in that scenario would be like,
I don't need lebron Just give me packs In, give
me Horace Grant, give me Scottie, and give me Bill
Wennington and I'll beat your five.
Speaker 6 (27:49):
Or would it be like would it be like Jimmy
Butler when Jimmy Butler was on the Timberwolves and he
just grabbed four random people to be like I could
beat Andrew Wiggins in Karl Anthony towns.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Is he had a couple of football questions and also
wants to take us back in time, So.
Speaker 5 (28:03):
Well, get the harps ready. I got a couple of
remember Whens for you. I really only had one. I
don't even know if I'll have time for the whole thing,
but I have one. Since speaking of Dan and Stugattz,
do you remember when you were the smartest man in
the world when it came to Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yes, I was ahead of I was ahead of everyone.
Can you. I called him a quack. I said he
hasn't accomplished anything.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
He's accomplished a lot since I said that, but at
the time, I was like, you know, people were buying Tesla's,
and the Tesla's were showing up to people's houses a
year after they purchased the Tesla and they were broke it,
And I'm like, this guy, you know, he's so smart,
and what he likes to do is toy with people's
emotions because his words have consequences, and he would use
(28:46):
his words to drive up the stock or drive down
the stock.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
And I basically said he's overrated.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
He's a guy who hasn't really accomplished nearly as much
as you would think based on the.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
Coverage that he gets. Frut Yes, absolutely, and also Stu.
Speaker 6 (28:58):
I think this was right around the time where he
just kept pitching that train concept, the hyper loop, where
he was like, Yep, this train's going to change the world.
And I think your point was, well, then build the
train already.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
No, he talks about conceptually, Yes, but since then he
has figured out how to get to space so well
it kind of checkmated me. But yes, there was a
super bullet train that would get you from Miami to
New York in like an hour, and like, hey, it's great,
talk about it in theory. How about you get the
train done. He loves to talk. He doesn't get much done.
(29:29):
But that's changed since it Well.
Speaker 7 (29:31):
Yes and no, because what if I told you?
Speaker 5 (29:33):
What did you tell me before that he created or
a spaceship or a company that can fly rockets into space?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yes, yeah, what if I told you?
Speaker 7 (29:41):
There's even more evidence.
Speaker 5 (29:42):
That you're correct, because yesterday, I believe it was yesterday,
might have been earlier.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Today, a SpaceX.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Rocket crashed into the Moon going at fifty four hundred
miles per hour.
Speaker 7 (29:55):
Wow, into the moon.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
He's a fraud.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
Don't mess with the moon man, leave it alone.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
So he builds big, great companies. The problem is the
products don't work exactly.
Speaker 7 (30:10):
He is the I don't know, the billionaire version of
the big baller brand.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
At the time, though when I said that, everyone objected.
Everyone was mad at me there like you're out of
your mind.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
It time I got to tell you.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
When people reach out to me and talk to me
about the show, what I get most is, man, you
were ahead of your time on Elambak.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
There you go, anytime you get a chance to brag
about that, you should. So I'm just letting you know,
a SpaceX rocket crashed into.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
The moon makes sense.
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Fraud.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Yeah, this one is.
Speaker 7 (30:39):
More a little bit for it.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
They took this along.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
This one's a little bit more for Taylor and Mikey.
Do you guys remember when the Cleveland Indians and Albert
Bell had this crazy corked bat.
Speaker 7 (30:52):
Incident in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
So I was born in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Okay, so you don't.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
Remember, so he didn't come out of the wombit baseball.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
It's one of the craziest stories I've ever seen in
my life. Seriously, sports are not sports like it really is.
So Ricardo and I were just replaced by Elon Musk's
rocket crashing into the moon.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
I mean, I was, do you get your money back
if you crash into the moon?
Speaker 7 (31:12):
I mean, you better get I don't. I have no
idea who would be trying to get their money back,
That's what I'm wondering.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
It's a good point, man, the families. I mean, it's expensive.
Speaker 7 (31:21):
You know, there weren't people like in it.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Oh. I thought it was one of those casual trait you.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Know yet it as a two car collision.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Yeah, I had fifty five thousand miles an hour or whatever.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
Into the moon. Nice pile up.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
He's making fun of it.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I thought he could take people to the moon.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
But in your scenario, yeah, they're getting their money back posthumously,
you're getting their money back. But yeah, I was talking
to Ricardo before the show, and I was what seventeen
years old at the time, so I should have remembered this.
But there was an incident in nineteen ninety four where
an umpire a bat from Albert Bell and put it
(32:02):
away to check on it later because they thought it
was corked. Yes, this next part is the most insane
baseball story I have ever heard. Okay, I'm just gonna
read off with Wikipedia here. The Indians, knowing that the
bat was indeed corked, dispatched relief pitcher Jason Grimsley to
retrieve the bat. Grimsly took a bat belonging to Indians
(32:23):
player Paul Sorrento and accessed the area above the false
ceiling in the clubhouse and crawled across with a flashlight
in his mouth until he reached the umpire's room. He
switched Bell's bat with Sorrento's and returned to the clubhouse.
During the sixth inning, the umpire's custodian noticed clumps of
(32:44):
ceiling tile on the floor of the umpire's room, plus
twisted metal brackets in the ceiling, so it clearly didn't
cover tracks very well, and after the game, Phillips noticed
the bats were different. When he saw that the replacement
bat was not as shiny and also was stamped with
Sorrento signature, the Chicago police were called and the White
(33:04):
Sox threatened charges against the burglar. Yes, an investigation that
Saturday was carried out by a former FBI agent flown
in by Major League Baseball. The equipment room was dusted
for fingerprints, and the path the burglar took was discovered.
You have got to be kidding me that they went
all mission impossible into the ceiling ye to try. I mean,
(33:28):
there's never been more proof that baseball is just a
sport of cheaters than this ride here. Everybody knew he
was cheating, but he's like, no, no, let's commit a
crime so that we can cover up this cheating.
Speaker 7 (33:41):
That it's first of all, I was shocked that I
didn't know the details of that.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
That's when baseball was baseball.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
But Taylor, I would watch I would watch a ninety
minute documentary about that. So on recreate the entire It's
the craziest baseball story, maybe the craziest sports story I've
ever heard.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
What's on is it's the second craziest story involving Albert
Bell was the first check out the story about kids
trick or treating in his neighborhood.
Speaker 6 (34:06):
Yes, as you checked that out. We have an update.
In this Cubs game. P Crow Armstrong just hit another
home run, crushed it to right field. Five to one.
Cubs three for three with two home runs.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
Going into this series, Otani was the MVP. And if
the Cubs sweep the Dodgers, yeah, MVP check his bat.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
And why this is why the Dodgers are good for baseball.
I'm telling you your hate watching right now. You are,
it's great, it's fantastic. They're stacked, and you want them
to lose.
Speaker 6 (34:35):
No, I I'm gonna whisper this because I don't want
this to be a public take. Really, I think the
Dodgers are kind of old, and the Dodgers might kind
of stink. Why'd you have to whisper that because I
know what's gonna happen. The Yankees are gonna make it
to the World Series from the al the Dodgers are
(34:56):
gonna make it to the World Series, and then we're
gonna get swept and people are gonna re play. But
it's tougher to replay a clip if I was whispering in.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
It, you know, put it on the poll? Is your
name on the bat? A debt giveaway? Seriously?
Speaker 7 (35:09):
Were they thinking? Talk about a poorly thought out play it?

Tim Kirchin get to join us at about twelve minutes here.
Hogdale goe to join us right after that, very much
looking forward to that. If you're not familiar with Hogdale's work,
I don't need to tell people who Tim Kirchin is.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Do I have to tell people who Hogdale is? Taylor?
Speaker 1 (36:00):
Yeah, Yeah, he's a guy who does play by play
for Barstool of every single He's a one sixty two
er of every single Red Sock game. And he's crazy. Okay,
I'm not certain he should be doing it. People pay
a lot of money for the rights of the Red
Sox game. But Hogdale is doing it nonetheless. So he
will join us coming up in around four twenty five.
Taylor has two games?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Is he we get to choose? Go ahead, Taylor, what
are our choices today?
Speaker 6 (36:23):
So we could do do me a favor? Or we
could do a new game inspired by Goldilocks and the
Three Bears, where we go through all the college football
teams in the top twenty five preseason coaches poll and
we say, if they're too high, too low, we're just right.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Do me a favor.
Speaker 7 (36:39):
It is it's a terrible way.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
The other one I'm thinking too high, too low?
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Yes, right, Goldilocks, Yeah, just right, Yeah, no, I'm thinking
about Goldilocks.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
It's not the game.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
He was anticipating that we would choose, and I would
tell you know your audience.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
Of course, me and Mike, you are going to choose that.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Which which game? Taylor?
Speaker 6 (37:05):
I heard first.
Speaker 7 (37:07):
He just wanted to do me a favor, a favorite.
We're never going to play that other game.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Okay, we can all.
Speaker 6 (37:12):
Agree, Ohio, let's play that other Ohio state at one too, right,
just right? I need sired Sam talks here. They didn't
want to blame Sam, but I heard Sam talk.
Speaker 11 (37:22):
Did it to me earlier.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
I was trying to do his job.
Speaker 7 (37:28):
Who is going to kick us off or do me
a favor?
Speaker 2 (37:31):
I will all right, thank you?
Speaker 3 (37:34):
Do me a favorite?
Speaker 2 (37:35):
HBO.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
No good teams on hard Knocks.
Speaker 8 (37:38):
Okay, hard Knocks is so much better when it's a
bunch of bottom beaters all fighting for roster spots, don't
I don't need to see them getting super Bowl rings.
I don't care about. Hey, this guy's really good. Yeah,
we know they won the super Bowl. Show me the
bottom featers. That's what I want to watch.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Who is this year's team on hord Dock Seahawks. It's
the Seahawks.
Speaker 6 (37:58):
Really that would explain while they were getting Super Bowl rnks.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
And I haven't watched it. What do you mean? I know,
but he just said that.
Speaker 6 (38:06):
By the way, just right, I think just right?
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Where are they right? Five? Low?
Speaker 4 (38:14):
Too low?
Speaker 6 (38:17):
I'm with Mikey. The appeal for hard knocks is seeing
the dysfunction and too much. Right now we're having too
many teams have to say. I saw Baker Mayfield talking
about his Quarterback show and he was like, I got
final approval, clips went out, and it's like, I don't
really want to watch a show where Baker Mayfield is
the director.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
That's I feel like Seahawks are just generally boring, Like
I don't really there's nothing about Sam Donald I really
need to know other than hey, can he win a
primetime game?
Speaker 7 (38:45):
Obviously he can?
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Now winning is boring.
