Speaker 2 (00:42):
There will be some Star Wars talk coming up at
some point today. Of all the sun Iowa Sam had
ready for today, of course you knew it was going
to be. He actually criticized us. I think it was
a criticism that we did not wear Star Wars related
items today.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
He definitely was talking smack, but he did.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Iowa Sam, would you like to tell everyone your Star
Wars related apparel today? I this might be the only
thing that like Star Wars related I own. It's kind
of in their galaxy Far far away. It says the

All right, may the fourth be with you. Can you
(01:27):
see that because we are streaming live on YouTube right now,
so you can see the shirt that Iowa Sam is
wearing as we speak. Jason Stewart's here. Isaac Lohnkron at
the news desk. We are down to an elite eight
in the NBA Playoffs Monsey and the Boston Celtics looked
anything but elite in their Game seven loss on Saturday
(01:50):
to the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Yeah, what was that starting lineup? Can we start there?
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Can we start with the starting lineup for the Boston
Celtics absolutely?
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Game seven?
Speaker 5 (02:02):
Like not like a game where you can test it
things out, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 4 (02:06):
Like, this is it?
Speaker 5 (02:07):
And the starting lineup was a I had to do
a double take. I was like, am I tripping?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (02:12):
So Peyton Pritchard and Sam Hauser are coming off the bench, Okay, okay.
I just thought Joe Missoula in his head was you
know what, everyone's playing checkers. I'm gonna play chess if
we're over here questioning the lineup. Maybe he thought that
would be as effective for Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, yeah, where.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
They wouldn't know how to handle it, but they did.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
He wasn't playing chess, he was playing sorry because that
was a sorry lineup. Sorry that it was the green pieces,
because it was sorry. Derek White, Jalen Brown, Baylor Shireman,
who Ron Harper junr.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
That's right, that one.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And Luca Garza Ladies and gentlemen. Luca Garza, someone that
Sam had had I don't know, campaigned for. Would that
be the way? Earlier in a couple of weeks ago
with Stug Gotts and is you were campaigning for the
Celtics to get more Luca and he started. Yeah, nine
(03:16):
nine minutes, zero points, nine minutes, zero points plus minus
negative fifteen.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
The three you just mentioned had zero points.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
The three you just the three three people in your
starting lineup had zero.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Not good at all. No yet yet the Boston Celtics
still had an opportunity to knock off the Philadelphia seventy
six ers. But in the end, it wasn't Joe Mizula's fault, Monci,
it wasn't the fault of Baylor Shireman or of Luca Garza.
Thank you, Ron Harper Junior or anybody else who wore
a Celtics jersey that I had no idea. I said
(03:53):
they'd played guys with fractions and decimal points on jersey numbers,
because I had never seen those sort of numbers on
jerseys that we saw in Game seven. It was it
was a break from the norm. Nicola Vusovich didn't even
play in the game for Boston was a was a
zero minute contributor, a DMP coach's decision. Didn't play in
(04:16):
Game seven. But that's that's not the problem. The problem
was the agenda, the agenda of the officials, not my words,
Jalen Brown's words, Jalen Brown saying that he felt that
there was an agenda of the officials to tilt Game
seven in a certain way that wasn't in Boston's favor.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Lemira, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Jalen Brown did say that he had been He said
that they were calling the offensive fouls on him.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
A little bit more than others. And I think we
have sound of Jalen literally saying this.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
What are y'all talking about? They clearly had an agenda.
They clearly had a red board of ja does this
move call the office of foul line every time. I
don't know it's because I pissed the refs off. I've
been critical about him and I called him out a
bunch of times. They were like, you know what I
got you in the playoffs?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Watch this.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
And that's exactly what they did. And when were in
the middle of this series, you know, I got time
to say that because that's a distraction.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I'm trying to focus.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
But now that's over.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I've been doing that all regular season. Everybody's been doing
it all regular season. You gon call it on me
every time you don't. You all won't see it like
it's an agenda. It's clearly an agenda. Look at the
same move.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
I appreciated the music, yeah, to go along with it.
That was that was nice And at first I actually
thought he was joking, like like the tongue in cheek,
like there's an agenda, right, you kind of give that
sly smile. You know, you're like it was an agenda,
you know what I'm talking about, right, And then he
kept on talking, and then he kept on going more
and more and Jalen Brown feels slighted. I have I
have a different soundtrack with music, and I think that
(05:57):
would be that would be better. Okay, maybe this is
instead of the agenda. Maybe this is why the Celtics
ended up losing five on four.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
The other way round the drome Putchard three and the
repound of George three point k House. It leaks up
and he couldn't claim it clean. Lay saves a Percada
round on the outside undertoo to play in game seven,
(06:36):
round with thirty three points and eight rebounds as the
badge of you wants with Naxi here the portashoot bron
the fend off. He went right into the embiid and
beat his hurt as he gets the rebound. Boston Badley
leads a bucket.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Got a score here as has to fast.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
White in La one minute to play a TV guard.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
How's a top three rebound oday?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Everybody missed, everybody quick crown, We'll pull Way off.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Rebound back to.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Brown right on the outside. No good, and then rebound
of Maxi.
Speaker 7 (07:23):
With twenty seconds to play, he foul in the back guard.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Come the quarterbounds mores more folks. He's gonna have to
work fast, hiding for howser over. Bolow comes up short.
Max with another rebound and and.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
That'll do it.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Onot of five seconds, Prichers three off the mark, rebound
goes to Tyreece Maxi.
Speaker 7 (07:50):
And for the first time in franchise history, the Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Seventy six ers have come back from three to one down.
They take out the number two seat.
Speaker 7 (07:59):
Of the E and the processes moving on to the
second round.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Hold No.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Nine one Sha Noah Ego, NBC Universal Peacock. All of
those calls, Sphil Collins, I missed again one of the
great songs. We had to do the extended remix Monzie
because there were so many misses by the Boston Celtics
late in that game. On Saturday, up ninety nine to
(08:24):
ninety six, Derek White misses with under four and a
half to go, three point fifty three left. Derek White
misses a three. He missed again, ninety nine to ninety six.
After a couple of free throws, Boston's within one. Jalen
Brown miss thirty seconds later, Jalen Brown miss. You heard
the Peyton Pritchard miss. Jalen Brown another miss under a minute,
Sam Howser miss Jin. They didn't make any shots. This
(08:47):
is a one point game, so one point game with
three minutes to go and Boston's best players on the court,
whether it's Baylor Shireman, Luca Garzer, Jaylen Brown, whoever, couldn't
make the shots. And so that's what annoys me when
we're talking about an agenda. And throughout this series you
had it in your hands, Boston, you had an opportunity.
(09:09):
We just played four minutes of Phil Collins and could
have played more misses from what Boston did on Saturday night.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
I don't know how many times.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
I don't care who won that game, but in the
fourth quarter, I must have veiled five seven times.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Stop shooting threes. Please stop shooting a three.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
And I said, if I'm Joe Mizula, I am saying
to Derek White, you take one more three, I'm pulling
you from this game.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
As a coach. How do you not say that?
Speaker 5 (09:37):
Or I would have said, hey, you know what I want,
get me a layup. I want to let's see the
ball go through the basket before you take another three.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
How about that.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Joe Mizzoula, to me, has been such a coach that
actually is involved and in this situation, like you just said,
the agenda, let's say the officials had an agenda.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I don't think so, Jaylen Brown.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
But the agenda that your coach had didn't make sense
from the star line up to the way it ended.
We know that Boston lives and dies with the three,
but the games that they lost in the series is
because they shot under thirty percent from the three, and
that is how this game was trending.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
So you got to change the agenda, especially.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Especially I know, like any team that plays the Dodgers,
I they circle it because they want to go. They
want to play the best against the Dodgers. Right, I
think Boston maybe a team that people circle, but Philadelphia
circles that until the paper rips dan. They are so
ready for that game. So how did you not have
(10:34):
plan CD E FG for a Game seven?
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I think they only had plans A, B and C.
Speaker 9 (10:40):
Is it sad?
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Like that like that was.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
They may not have had DE, E and FG. But
to your point, zero of nine from three point range
in the last five minutes ended up being one of
twelve from the floor in that span, but nine of
those misses, again, all misses were from three point range.
Boston'll lived by the three, died by the three sort
of team. And to go along with that, My bigger
issue is what we did afterwards. And it's not Jalen
(11:06):
Brown saying that this is an agenda. My problem is
is Boston trying to have it both ways. Why did
you rush Jason Tatum back? Why did Jason Tatum rush
back to try to make a push in the playoffs?
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Right, of course, but not just I think you and
I sat here, Maybe you were with Carrie and we
all talked about it. Carrie Rhodes, former NFL safety that
you host with on Sundays. Uh, maybe we were all
talking about it together. But it was like, imagine him saying,
he wants to come back because he's your star. How
do you tell him no? Because it was it was
we had a conversation, why are you coming back? But
watching his team have success without him that was probably
(11:39):
hard for Jason Tatum.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Yes, and so he probably pushed it. It wasn't even
just that the Celtics wanted him back for the playoff push.
It was maybe Jason Tatum mean, I'm coming back, whether
you like it or not.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
This is what I think happened, and I think that
you're onto something. I think Jason Tatum probably wanted to
be a part of the party, he had Fomo, he
felt like he was missing out, like you're going to
attack your re have in a certain way, but there's
really no reason why he should have come back at
this part of the season. Damian Lillard in Portland, you know,
ruptured at his achilles last year with Milwaukee. He mentioned
(12:10):
after Portland was eliminated that there was maybe talk of
maybe he could come out and play, and it didn't
even dawn on him. So Damian Lillard, who sees Portland
now actually be a playoff contender, never even dawned on
Dame to be able to go and make a comeback.
Jason Tatum tries to do the Superman thing, and I
get it, you're you're an athlete. There's only so much time,
(12:31):
But you can't tell me what happened in Game seven,
And meaning Jason Tatum not being there wasn't connected to
him trying to be fully healthy. Like I know it's
been a while since he's been back with the team,
but I think that's all part of the equation. So
now Tatum rushes back to your point of wanting to
be a part of the team and having Fomo. Boston's like,
you know what this isn't a wasted year if we
(12:54):
could get Jason Tatum back. Now we are contenders in
the East, and when you look at the East, you're
only looking up at the Pistons. Hadn't been there before,
so that makes sense for Boston to go for it.
So now you get into a game seven, we were
starting three players that shouldn't be starting. I know Baylor
Shireman played better at the second half of the season,
but wasn't the Celtics lineup that we necessarily thought that
(13:14):
they would put out there. When you go for it
like Boston did and fail, you can't say, guess what,
it was a lost season anyway.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
You know, this is like.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
There were so many things that were lost because of it.
You can't just brush this aside. And that's where I
felt like Boston was like, well, we really want to
go for it, and then now we're like, well, we
weren't supposed to be this far anyway, so we'll just
move on and get ready for next year. I think
there are so many things with the Celtics that happened
this year that will hurt them in the long run,
(13:48):
even more so than just losing this seven game series.
But you just have to take the l on the series.
This isn't get We were got further in the regular
season in a higher seed than we ever thought. So
we're just gonna live with that. Uh, you got to
take this out and you gotta wear it.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Absolutely, the minute that Jason Tatum came back and they
decided we're going to go for it.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
As you just said, our.
Speaker 5 (14:08):
Initial or my initial opinion of what the Celtics would
do this season went out the windows, Like, Okay, you
went for it to your point.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Now I'm gonna judge you based on that, not on
oh you brought Tatum back in a year where we
weren't expecting it. Good for you.
Speaker 10 (14:24):
No, you went for it and you were up three
to one. So even even with that, you had the
opportunity and then in a Game seven to come out
with what I felt was.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
No desperation and a team maybe like the Celtics doesn't
show desperation. They have been there, done that, live and
die by the three and has worked for them, So
it's like maybe they they didn't feel the need to
show desperation.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
But but it seemed like you could have used it
a little bit.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
You could have acted like this was a win or
go home situation, and it definitely seemed like you thought
you would have a game today.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
You say three to one, I just look up, You're
within one point with five minutes to go, and we
can't have anybody make a shot. So let's just to
recap Celtics as we look at them as a team.
Is their stock up or down after this series?
Speaker 6 (15:17):
Down?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
It's down? Jason Tatum now not available for a game seven?
Where is his stock down? Jaylen Brown unable to hit
shots in the clutch when he's the man he had
an opportunity to show. Listen, I understand that Jason Tatum
stole everybody's lines and winning an NBA title. I can
show that this is my team and I'm the one
that can lead it. What's his stock down? Down? And
(15:40):
then with the agenda in the stream, it goes down
even even further. Completely lost weekend for the Boston Celtics,
whose stock as an entire organization is going down after
that tobacco on Saturday.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
Joe Mizzula stock went down for me in his the
lack of making adjustments. We emphasis how in the postseason,
in the playoffs, it's all about adjustments from game to games.
Sometimes it's from play to play, quarter to quarter. Where
were the adjustments in this one? It just seemed I
couldn't believe.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
What I was watching it. I just was like, do
they not know?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
This?
Speaker 5 (16:14):
As a game seven against against the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
Once again, all they want to do is crush you
and step on your throat. They just want to beat
you there, they want to humiliate you.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
There's a bigger picture when you look at this series
as a whole. For Missoula. I would agree with that
You're harder on him than I am, because I still
think that they're there with five minutes left. Again, it's
just up to your players to make shots something that
they couldn't do. And I think I think your point
is valid. I just I have more of an issue
with what went down and how that game was still
competitive and it was Philadelphia, and Philadelphia had everything going
(16:47):
for him right and I mean Joel, I mean except
Joel Embian getting hurt twice in the game, a knee
and a hip issue, which is something we'll talk a
little bit about later. But I just go more to
the players that I had the opportunities, Peyton Pritchard and
an opportunity, Why open three in the corner you know
bricked it so it was so bad it was and
(17:09):
there is no agenda. There is no agenda. Not when
you go oer of nine from three point range in
one of twelve in the final five minutes of a
game seven at home against a rival that you have
always beaten. She's Mont Blanios, I'm Dan Byer, it is
Stug Gotts in Company Live. Isaac lowncron is here, Jason Stewart,
Iowa Sam. As we roll on on a Monday, be
sure to.

Catch live editions of Stu Godson Company Live weekdays at

Speaker 2 (17:40):
Stu gods and Company Live here on Fox Sports Radio.
What a weekend it has been.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
A weekend, a weekend it will be.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
It's It's an emotional day in sports as well. And Isaac,
you can stick around for this, But Iowa Sam, Jason
Stewart's here, Monty Blaios, myself, Dan Byer, it is du
Gotzon Company Live. Long time Yankees play by play announcer
John Sterling passed away. And when things like this happen
(18:10):
and we knew that Sterling during his later years with
the Yankees was not great health, and now you're so
later after him stepping aside, he ends up passing away.
But it is always emotional because I think for a
couple of reasons. Number one, I think you just remember
the calls, and we're going to play some of the
(18:31):
calls to it as well. But it also makes you
think of a lot of other broadcasters that have passed away,
and now John Sterling another one, because so many baseball
fans are so tied to their play by play announcer.
So I'm sure Yankee fans feeling the feelings that a
lot of baseball fans have felt over the years and
losing their voices of baseball, like the Brewers and Bob Buker.
(18:53):
And Bob Buker ended up passing away a long time
the voice of the Milwaukee Brewers. And I think we're
in southern California, Vin Skull, Vin Scully, absolutely awful sad
news with John Sterling passing today. I now the passing
of Vin Scully, I mean, was Jason Stewart your lifelong dout,
your fan. I mean, it's just a you knew the
(19:13):
day was going to come, but it's just, you know,
one of the worst days possible.
Speaker 11 (19:17):
So Vin Scully was the soundtrack of my childhood. I
would go to sleep listening to him literally, So yeah,
there was a huge emotional tide to that. But I
don't think I'm alone in that. I think there are
a lot of markets around the country that kind of
had that experience. And the sadness of like a John
Sterling passing, as you mentioned, Bob Bucker, is that baseball
(19:39):
is just slow, slowly and slowly becoming the game that's
unfamiliar to me. I've gone on Twitter with my old
man takes and been called a boomer about how the
game is changing for the younger audience and the marketing
has changed. But John Sterling, Vin Scully, Bob Buker, these
are just kind of like sad signs that baseball is
(20:02):
not what it was when I was growing up. But
John Stroy, what a legend, What a legend.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
What an absolute legend. And Isaac, I know you're obviously
a play by play savant. You do a great job yourself.
You know the history of so many broadcasters, and Sterling
had some epic calls of his own.
Speaker 12 (20:21):
Let's take you back to Game six of the nineteen
ninety six World Series, the start of the Yankees' most
recent dynasty, and here they are one strike and one
out away from winning it against the Atlanta Braves.
Speaker 13 (20:37):
Once again, it'll be a free too stretch and bitch
swung on and popped up again all third.
Speaker 14 (20:44):
Hey have room, Hey, great bookat yek winyek win for
New York Yankee. I've won the nineteen ninety six World period.
They have promoted every town, they have fun every method.
Speaker 12 (21:03):
And you guys bring up a really fascinating broader issue.
You mentioned John Sterling, Bob Yucker, Vin Scully. These people
come on the air and you instantly recognize them, and
I think we're kind of losing that distinctiveness in this
generation because of the personalities themselves, but also sports are
(21:26):
consumed in different ways now than they were when we
were all growing up. There's not so much radio on
the back porch anymore. It's your phone. There's not so
much hey, the TV on in the living room and
the family room while we're walking in and out, which
is how we grew up to. Whatever game is on
(21:47):
the air now, it's maybe streaming on your specific device.
But the whole family is not exposed to it. So
I think you guys make a great point about the
broader issue.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
What's kind of.
Speaker 12 (21:58):
Poignant is not only is it a far farewell to
a particular beloved broadcaster, it's also a farewell to kind
of the way we grew up consuming sports.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
One of the great things that I loved about John
Sterling was it was at first Yankees win, no Yankees win.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
So that these win.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yankee So it's something like that outside of New York
that starts to catch on. But then it's then what
happens is it's the nicknames. And that's what I will
always remember. Like you want to know how you've made it,
it's when the Yankees would sign someone new and you
(22:42):
wanted them to hit a home run for the first time.
You see, he was going to say what the nickname
was going to be. Here's some of John Sterling's greatest hits.
Speaker 12 (22:51):
Yeah, and here it's funny should mention that here was
the first time he called it. John Carlos Stanton home run,
swung on and drill.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
The deep right center field.
Speaker 13 (23:00):
That is far he is gone. In his first Yankee
at bet John Carlo non see pul Stove Parlow. It
is a Stantonian home run, a two run blast or
right center in his first Yankee at bet and the
Yankees take a two nothing leave.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
I didn't know it was that easy.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
And there was extra, there was extra the Stantonian and
Joan Carlo. There's more. There's more from John Sterling one two, swung.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
On and driven a deep left toward the line.
Speaker 13 (23:35):
She is gone, Aaron Judge line, run right down the line,
a judge in blast all rise, here comes the judge.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Oh my goodness, it's it's great. It gets better and better.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
The grande man can the grande man cannon.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Even if it doesn't make any sense. And we would
rate them on a scale of one to ten, and
we would say that's a two. That's not good. That
was really good, that was a nine. Whatever he did,
he stuck with and then it just became a part
of Yankee history. Oo.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Sorry, what is the difference hitting on every What everyone
is saying, Isaac and Jason, baseball play by play is
different than any other sport when it comes to the radio.
Like I don't know if it's just because other sports
play by play, It's like I can keep up, but
it's not like baseball.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
Like baseball, I feel like I'm.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Watching it even though I'm on the sitting in my
car listening, like I can see it all happen.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
I don't know if it's maybe the pace of the
game which makes it so much easier, But.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Like the play by play announcers that I know that
I could be like, oh, I remember that, they're all baseball.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
They're all baseball. There's not one where I could part
you know, yeah, Ralph Laller of the Clippers. But that's
for me personally.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
I don't know if I could tell you like another
personal NBA play by play guy.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Obviously, Okay, I'm in LA, but I'm also in LA,
so it's like.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
You're also breaking how young you are compared to us.
But I get I get it.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
That's no, you're right, they hear yes, but you know,
like even Checkert, you're right, but I'm in LA.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
So is that because I'm in.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
LA that I also know that one?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Yeah, I think that would be a part of it.
Like I think that people didn't realize that Bob Buker
was actually the voice of the Brewers for as long
as he was. They thought he was on mister Belvedere
and Johnny Carson and all of those things, but to
so many Brewers fans, he was the voice of the
Brewers and so many other broadcasters, whether it be Ernie Harwell,
you know with the with the Tigers, and I you're
(25:38):
right about that. I think it's the pace of it.
I think it's the schedule. Yeah, I think it's the
feel of summer where you'd go and you know, working
out in the yard, having a good time, turning on
the ball game while you're out there with friends like
all of that I think ends up fitting.
Speaker 12 (25:57):
And I would say that the point of what makes
baseball in the so special. You use the phrase keep
keeping up. It's not so much to keep up with
the game, it's to keep people company. And yeah, there's
a certain charm about it. I mentioned listening to the
radio on your back porch, listening in the car. There's
(26:17):
just a charm about baseball on the radio that's unique.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
My family where they live in Wisconsin. I mean, how
many people would have the radio headset. I'm not talking
about walk man, like when you're mowing the lawn to
listen or put your ear earbuds in like this is
the pre where you would have an antenna. This is
pre that sort of and they'd listen to the Brewer
games as they drive the riding lawnmower and just molawn.
(26:42):
It's part of the past time and I'm sure John
Sterling was part of I'm sure people were doing that
on Long Island, turning on the Yankees game, doing the
yard work, you know, in the summertime, and enjoying bets
sad news. As John Sterling passed away, but we were
able to honor him in a certain way. One thing,
Jason Stewart.
Speaker 11 (27:00):
One thing too. And you guys can can confirm or
deny this. I want to say John Sterling was largely
the one voice on the on the broadcast. I know
that Susie was a voice, but like with John Miller
and the Giants right now, if you sign up to
be his commentator, you're you're saying a couple of words
of broadcast. It's just a known thing. John Miller dominates
(27:20):
the broadcast. Vin Scully did it all by himself. Imagine
the skill set of being able to speak on your
own for three and a half hours every night, one
hundred and sixty two nights a year and That's what
kind of makes it special too. That's why there's a
special relationship with the listener, and that now it's largely
play by play with a next athlete, and it's very
(27:42):
what do you call that homogene? I don't even know
what the word is. It's a dying era, not to
pun not intended of people that kind of just dominated
the broadcast like that.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
You know, thirty one Yankee games. He called John Sterling
passing away at the age of eighty seven. She's, yeah,
a lot of games. She's Monty Blago. So I'm Dan Byer.
Jason Stewart, isac Lowancron Iowa Sam hanging out with us today.
Great to hear some of the calls from John Sterling.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
The NFL Draft is in our rear view mirror for sure,
but there is an ESPN show coming out of behind
the scenes look at the NFL Draft, and they've been
leaking some of the information. Something shocked me from a
clip that they sent out with the Cowboys and Eagles
making that trade that allowed Philadelphia to get Mackay Lemon.
We knew the drama of him being on the phone
(29:38):
with the Steelers being Lemon and then the Eagles calling
in at that time, but something else surprised me about it.
We're picking it up in the Cowboys war room with
Steven and Jerry Jones taking center stage.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Who's the best candidates?
Speaker 14 (29:51):
If you would lamb on play, yeah, Philly, just call out.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Oh well, he's call. We're gonna be given six. I'm
hoping he'll call and say we'll go the two fours.
Speaker 9 (30:08):
We've got time.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
We've got a few minutes, not like we're down to
twenty seconds. We worked trying to call me. I'll tell
him I'm calling it. Hold hello, Howie, Howie, Hey this Steven.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
How you doing?
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Man?
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Shame exchanging numbers our seventh next year? We just we're good. No,
we don't want to. We're already giving.
Speaker 11 (30:43):
Up picks for this year.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
We're out of them. We're out of picks.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
But anyway, we for sure do it for the two fours. Good,
I'll throw you a next year seven.
Speaker 13 (30:57):
Okay, we got a deal, Pots and football makes strange, bedfellow.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
The Eagles and Cowboys made nouns in this trade. Listen
to this.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
He picked. Yes, this is Stephen Jones.
Speaker 9 (31:11):
We're trading this pick to Philadelphia.
Speaker 11 (31:13):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (31:14):
See, we're trading pick twenty five for their pick twenty three,
and and we get there one fourteen and one thirty
seven in the fourth.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Okay, and we give.
Speaker 9 (31:29):
Back our seventh next year of.
Speaker 13 (31:32):
It next year.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Okay, there it is.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Deal is done. That took what one hundred seconds? I
don't know why. I thought NFL trades were way more complicated,
way more Okay. We've got Stephen Jones on one line.
We've got Howie Roseman on the other. Mister Rosemond, do
you and the Eagles agree to this deal? I agree?
I therefy certify this trade. Stephen Jones and the Cowboys
(31:58):
do you agree to this trade? Yes? I agree. None
of that, No, none of that. It's Stephen Jones saying, hey, Tess,
I think that may have been her name. We just
swing a deal. We're going to pick here. Their Eagles
are moving up, we're dropping back. We get a couple
of their picks. She was about to hang up before
he even said, oh, by the way, we also are
giving them their seventh round pick. That's how quick this happens.
(32:19):
And it happens in a timeframe which should be quick
because now they only have eight minutes to pick. It's
more difficult to make a trade in my fantasy football
draft than it is in an NFL draft and just
hearing how quickly that went down. We don't have any picks.
Guess what will take you too? For us? We do
have a seventh week can give you all Right, we'll
do it, let's do it, boom done. I was blown
away on how easy that trade went down.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
It was easy, and everything just seems so cash just
like no big deal, like let's just oh yeah, won't
you call?
Speaker 4 (32:47):
Yeah, yeah, we've got time. We don't have twenty seconds,
we've two minutes, we've got five. It seemed very casual.
I will yeah, it was. It was a lot harder
for me to delete my Facebook than for them to
make a trade.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
It was it was like that it was a one
hundred se seconds in that time, like that's really what
it was, Like a minute forty that's all that it
took for them to be able to swing the deal.
And I'm on the phone with a buddy like okay,
I'll give you a fourth and a seventh, and he's like, well,
how about it's sixth. No, I'll give you all about
the third and the ninth. No, I can't do that.
Like it's mind blowing that the NFL makes it so
(33:19):
easy Yeah, No, you're right, I'm turning down those deals.
Speaker 5 (33:22):
Nope, I'm sorry you're having such a hard time trading
in your fantasy Poe.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Don't you think it would be more official?
Speaker 9 (33:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (33:28):
No, yes, yes, absolutely. It seemed very casual. That's what
I mean by that, very casual.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
Watching that video, if you haven't seen the video, it's
even more casual than it sounds to me, like, I
couldn't believe that's how I went down.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I mean, am I the only one here? Do you
guys think that there was more to it than just
Stephen Jones picking up the phone and saying we made
a deal?
Speaker 11 (33:46):
Wasn't your initial reaction after the day after the draft
when we did the show that you were surprised that
the Cowboys did that at all? Yes, that's the dynamic
here too, right, Yeah, he's dealing with somebody who's there
our tribal in the division.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Yeah, in the division, like why would you want to
do what the Eagles wanted to do? And from that
it was just the Cowboys trying to get more picks
and Philadelphia was willing to do so.
Speaker 12 (34:08):
It takes me longer at the drive through window, to
be honest with you, It took me months to cancel
my Facebook, months come back to Facebook.
Speaker 9 (34:16):
Never.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
No, it took us years to believe in Joel embiid.
Have we finally Have we finally arrived? Has the process
been completed? That's next on Fox

a criticism that we did not wear Star Wars related
items today.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
He definitely was talking smack, but he did.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Iowa Sam, would you like to tell everyone your Star

(01:27):
see that because we are streaming live on YouTube right now,
so you can see the shirt that Iowa Sam is
wearing as we speak. Jason Stewart's here. Isaac Lohnkron at
the news desk. We are down to an elite eight
in the NBA Playoffs Monsey and the Boston Celtics looked
anything but elite in their Game seven loss on Saturday
(01:50):
to the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Yeah, what was that starting lineup? Can we start there?
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Can we start with the starting lineup for the Boston
Celtics absolutely?
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Game seven?
Speaker 5 (02:02):
Like not like a game where you can test it
things out, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 4 (02:06):
Like, this is it?
Speaker 5 (02:07):
And the starting lineup was a I had to do
a double take. I was like, am I tripping?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (02:12):
So Peyton Pritchard and Sam Hauser are coming off the bench, Okay, okay.
I just thought Joe Missoula in his head was you
know what, everyone's playing checkers. I'm gonna play chess if
we're over here questioning the lineup. Maybe he thought that
would be as effective for Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, yeah, where.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
They wouldn't know how to handle it, but they did.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
He wasn't playing chess, he was playing sorry because that
was a sorry lineup. Sorry that it was the green pieces,
because it was sorry. Derek White, Jalen Brown, Baylor Shireman,
who Ron Harper junr.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
That's right, that one.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And Luca Garza Ladies and gentlemen. Luca Garza, someone that
Sam had had I don't know, campaigned for. Would that
be the way? Earlier in a couple of weeks ago
with Stug Gotts and is you were campaigning for the
Celtics to get more Luca and he started. Yeah, nine
(03:16):
nine minutes, zero points, nine minutes, zero points plus minus
negative fifteen.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
The three you just mentioned had zero points.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
The three you just the three three people in your
starting lineup had zero.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Not good at all. No yet yet the Boston Celtics
still had an opportunity to knock off the Philadelphia seventy
six ers. But in the end, it wasn't Joe Mizula's fault, Monci,
it wasn't the fault of Baylor Shireman or of Luca Garza.
Thank you, Ron Harper Junior or anybody else who wore
a Celtics jersey that I had no idea. I said
(03:53):
they'd played guys with fractions and decimal points on jersey numbers,
because I had never seen those sort of numbers on
jerseys that we saw in Game seven. It was it
was a break from the norm. Nicola Vusovich didn't even
play in the game for Boston was a was a
zero minute contributor, a DMP coach's decision. Didn't play in
(04:16):
Game seven. But that's that's not the problem. The problem
was the agenda, the agenda of the officials, not my words,
Jalen Brown's words, Jalen Brown saying that he felt that
there was an agenda of the officials to tilt Game
seven in a certain way that wasn't in Boston's favor.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Lemira, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Jalen Brown did say that he had been He said
that they were calling the offensive fouls on him.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
A little bit more than others. And I think we
have sound of Jalen literally saying this.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
What are y'all talking about? They clearly had an agenda.
They clearly had a red board of ja does this
move call the office of foul line every time. I
don't know it's because I pissed the refs off. I've
been critical about him and I called him out a
bunch of times. They were like, you know what I
got you in the playoffs?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Watch this.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
And that's exactly what they did. And when were in
the middle of this series, you know, I got time
to say that because that's a distraction.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I'm trying to focus.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
But now that's over.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I've been doing that all regular season. Everybody's been doing
it all regular season. You gon call it on me
every time you don't. You all won't see it like
it's an agenda. It's clearly an agenda. Look at the
same move.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
I appreciated the music, yeah, to go along with it.
That was that was nice And at first I actually
thought he was joking, like like the tongue in cheek,
like there's an agenda, right, you kind of give that
sly smile. You know, you're like it was an agenda,
you know what I'm talking about, right, And then he
kept on talking, and then he kept on going more
and more and Jalen Brown feels slighted. I have I
have a different soundtrack with music, and I think that
(05:57):
would be that would be better. Okay, maybe this is
instead of the agenda. Maybe this is why the Celtics
ended up losing five on four.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
The other way round the drome Putchard three and the
repound of George three point k House. It leaks up
and he couldn't claim it clean. Lay saves a Percada
round on the outside undertoo to play in game seven,
(06:36):
round with thirty three points and eight rebounds as the
badge of you wants with Naxi here the portashoot bron
the fend off. He went right into the embiid and
beat his hurt as he gets the rebound. Boston Badley
leads a bucket.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Got a score here as has to fast.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
White in La one minute to play a TV guard.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
How's a top three rebound oday?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Everybody missed, everybody quick crown, We'll pull Way off.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Rebound back to.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Brown right on the outside. No good, and then rebound
of Maxi.
Speaker 7 (07:23):
With twenty seconds to play, he foul in the back guard.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Come the quarterbounds mores more folks. He's gonna have to
work fast, hiding for howser over. Bolow comes up short.
Max with another rebound and and.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
That'll do it.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Onot of five seconds, Prichers three off the mark, rebound
goes to Tyreece Maxi.
Speaker 7 (07:50):
And for the first time in franchise history, the Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Seventy six ers have come back from three to one down.
They take out the number two seat.
Speaker 7 (07:59):
Of the E and the processes moving on to the
second round.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Hold No.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Nine one Sha Noah Ego, NBC Universal Peacock. All of
those calls, Sphil Collins, I missed again one of the
great songs. We had to do the extended remix Monzie
because there were so many misses by the Boston Celtics
late in that game. On Saturday, up ninety nine to
(08:24):
ninety six, Derek White misses with under four and a
half to go, three point fifty three left. Derek White
misses a three. He missed again, ninety nine to ninety six.
After a couple of free throws, Boston's within one. Jalen
Brown miss thirty seconds later, Jalen Brown miss. You heard
the Peyton Pritchard miss. Jalen Brown another miss under a minute,
Sam Howser miss Jin. They didn't make any shots. This
(08:47):
is a one point game, so one point game with
three minutes to go and Boston's best players on the court,
whether it's Baylor Shireman, Luca Garzer, Jaylen Brown, whoever, couldn't
make the shots. And so that's what annoys me when
we're talking about an agenda. And throughout this series you
had it in your hands, Boston, you had an opportunity.
(09:09):
We just played four minutes of Phil Collins and could
have played more misses from what Boston did on Saturday night.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
I don't know how many times.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
I don't care who won that game, but in the
fourth quarter, I must have veiled five seven times.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Stop shooting threes. Please stop shooting a three.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
And I said, if I'm Joe Mizula, I am saying
to Derek White, you take one more three, I'm pulling
you from this game.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
As a coach. How do you not say that?
Speaker 5 (09:37):
Or I would have said, hey, you know what I want,
get me a layup. I want to let's see the
ball go through the basket before you take another three.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
How about that.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Joe Mizzoula, to me, has been such a coach that
actually is involved and in this situation, like you just said,
the agenda, let's say the officials had an agenda.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I don't think so, Jaylen Brown.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
But the agenda that your coach had didn't make sense
from the star line up to the way it ended.
We know that Boston lives and dies with the three,
but the games that they lost in the series is
because they shot under thirty percent from the three, and
that is how this game was trending.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
So you got to change the agenda, especially.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Especially I know, like any team that plays the Dodgers,
I they circle it because they want to go. They
want to play the best against the Dodgers. Right, I
think Boston maybe a team that people circle, but Philadelphia
circles that until the paper rips dan. They are so
ready for that game. So how did you not have
(10:34):
plan CD E FG for a Game seven?
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I think they only had plans A, B and C.
Speaker 9 (10:40):
Is it sad?
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Like that like that was.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
They may not have had DE, E and FG. But
to your point, zero of nine from three point range
in the last five minutes ended up being one of
twelve from the floor in that span, but nine of
those misses, again, all misses were from three point range.
Boston'll lived by the three, died by the three sort
of team. And to go along with that, My bigger
issue is what we did afterwards. And it's not Jalen
(11:06):
Brown saying that this is an agenda. My problem is
is Boston trying to have it both ways. Why did
you rush Jason Tatum back? Why did Jason Tatum rush
back to try to make a push in the playoffs?
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Right, of course, but not just I think you and
I sat here, Maybe you were with Carrie and we
all talked about it. Carrie Rhodes, former NFL safety that
you host with on Sundays. Uh, maybe we were all
talking about it together. But it was like, imagine him saying,
he wants to come back because he's your star. How
do you tell him no? Because it was it was
we had a conversation, why are you coming back? But
watching his team have success without him that was probably
(11:39):
hard for Jason Tatum.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Yes, and so he probably pushed it. It wasn't even
just that the Celtics wanted him back for the playoff push.
It was maybe Jason Tatum mean, I'm coming back, whether
you like it or not.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
This is what I think happened, and I think that
you're onto something. I think Jason Tatum probably wanted to
be a part of the party, he had Fomo, he
felt like he was missing out, like you're going to
attack your re have in a certain way, but there's
really no reason why he should have come back at
this part of the season. Damian Lillard in Portland, you know,
ruptured at his achilles last year with Milwaukee. He mentioned
(12:10):
after Portland was eliminated that there was maybe talk of
maybe he could come out and play, and it didn't
even dawn on him. So Damian Lillard, who sees Portland
now actually be a playoff contender, never even dawned on
Dame to be able to go and make a comeback.
Jason Tatum tries to do the Superman thing, and I
get it, you're you're an athlete. There's only so much time,
(12:31):
But you can't tell me what happened in Game seven,
And meaning Jason Tatum not being there wasn't connected to
him trying to be fully healthy. Like I know it's
been a while since he's been back with the team,
but I think that's all part of the equation. So
now Tatum rushes back to your point of wanting to
be a part of the team and having Fomo. Boston's like,
you know what this isn't a wasted year if we
(12:54):
could get Jason Tatum back. Now we are contenders in
the East, and when you look at the East, you're
only looking up at the Pistons. Hadn't been there before,
so that makes sense for Boston to go for it.
So now you get into a game seven, we were
starting three players that shouldn't be starting. I know Baylor
Shireman played better at the second half of the season,
but wasn't the Celtics lineup that we necessarily thought that
(13:14):
they would put out there. When you go for it
like Boston did and fail, you can't say, guess what,
it was a lost season anyway.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
You know, this is like.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
There were so many things that were lost because of it.
You can't just brush this aside. And that's where I
felt like Boston was like, well, we really want to
go for it, and then now we're like, well, we
weren't supposed to be this far anyway, so we'll just
move on and get ready for next year. I think
there are so many things with the Celtics that happened
this year that will hurt them in the long run,
(13:48):
even more so than just losing this seven game series.
But you just have to take the l on the series.
This isn't get We were got further in the regular
season in a higher seed than we ever thought. So
we're just gonna live with that. Uh, you got to
take this out and you gotta wear it.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Absolutely, the minute that Jason Tatum came back and they
decided we're going to go for it.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
As you just said, our.
Speaker 5 (14:08):
Initial or my initial opinion of what the Celtics would
do this season went out the windows, Like, Okay, you
went for it to your point.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Now I'm gonna judge you based on that, not on
oh you brought Tatum back in a year where we
weren't expecting it. Good for you.
Speaker 10 (14:24):
No, you went for it and you were up three
to one. So even even with that, you had the
opportunity and then in a Game seven to come out
with what I felt was.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
No desperation and a team maybe like the Celtics doesn't
show desperation. They have been there, done that, live and
die by the three and has worked for them, So
it's like maybe they they didn't feel the need to
show desperation.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
But but it seemed like you could have used it
a little bit.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
You could have acted like this was a win or
go home situation, and it definitely seemed like you thought
you would have a game today.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
You say three to one, I just look up, You're
within one point with five minutes to go, and we
can't have anybody make a shot. So let's just to
recap Celtics as we look at them as a team.
Is their stock up or down after this series?
Speaker 6 (15:17):
Down?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
It's down? Jason Tatum now not available for a game seven?
Where is his stock down? Jaylen Brown unable to hit
shots in the clutch when he's the man he had
an opportunity to show. Listen, I understand that Jason Tatum
stole everybody's lines and winning an NBA title. I can
show that this is my team and I'm the one
that can lead it. What's his stock down? Down? And
(15:40):
then with the agenda in the stream, it goes down
even even further. Completely lost weekend for the Boston Celtics,
whose stock as an entire organization is going down after
that tobacco on Saturday.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
Joe Mizzula stock went down for me in his the
lack of making adjustments. We emphasis how in the postseason,
in the playoffs, it's all about adjustments from game to games.
Sometimes it's from play to play, quarter to quarter. Where
were the adjustments in this one? It just seemed I
couldn't believe.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
What I was watching it. I just was like, do
they not know?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
This?
Speaker 5 (16:14):
As a game seven against against the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
Once again, all they want to do is crush you
and step on your throat. They just want to beat
you there, they want to humiliate you.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
There's a bigger picture when you look at this series
as a whole. For Missoula. I would agree with that
You're harder on him than I am, because I still
think that they're there with five minutes left. Again, it's
just up to your players to make shots something that
they couldn't do. And I think I think your point
is valid. I just I have more of an issue
with what went down and how that game was still
competitive and it was Philadelphia, and Philadelphia had everything going
(16:47):
for him right and I mean Joel, I mean except
Joel Embian getting hurt twice in the game, a knee
and a hip issue, which is something we'll talk a
little bit about later. But I just go more to
the players that I had the opportunities, Peyton Pritchard and
an opportunity, Why open three in the corner you know
bricked it so it was so bad it was and
(17:09):
there is no agenda. There is no agenda. Not when
you go oer of nine from three point range in
one of twelve in the final five minutes of a
game seven at home against a rival that you have
always beaten. She's Mont Blanios, I'm Dan Byer, it is

Stu gods and Company Live here on Fox Sports Radio.
What a weekend it has been.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
A weekend, a weekend it will be.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
It's It's an emotional day in sports as well. And Isaac,
you can stick around for this, But Iowa Sam, Jason
Stewart's here, Monty Blaios, myself, Dan Byer, it is du
Gotzon Company Live. Long time Yankees play by play announcer
John Sterling passed away. And when things like this happen
(18:10):
and we knew that Sterling during his later years with
the Yankees was not great health, and now you're so
later after him stepping aside, he ends up passing away.
But it is always emotional because I think for a
couple of reasons. Number one, I think you just remember
the calls, and we're going to play some of the
(18:31):
calls to it as well. But it also makes you
think of a lot of other broadcasters that have passed away,
and now John Sterling another one, because so many baseball
fans are so tied to their play by play announcer.
So I'm sure Yankee fans feeling the feelings that a
lot of baseball fans have felt over the years and
losing their voices of baseball, like the Brewers and Bob Buker.
(18:53):
And Bob Buker ended up passing away a long time
the voice of the Milwaukee Brewers. And I think we're
in southern California, Vin Skull, Vin Scully, absolutely awful sad
news with John Sterling passing today. I now the passing
of Vin Scully, I mean, was Jason Stewart your lifelong dout,
your fan. I mean, it's just a you knew the
(19:13):
day was going to come, but it's just, you know,
one of the worst days possible.
Speaker 11 (19:17):
So Vin Scully was the soundtrack of my childhood. I
would go to sleep listening to him literally, So yeah,
there was a huge emotional tide to that. But I
don't think I'm alone in that. I think there are
a lot of markets around the country that kind of
had that experience. And the sadness of like a John
Sterling passing, as you mentioned, Bob Bucker, is that baseball
(19:39):
is just slow, slowly and slowly becoming the game that's
unfamiliar to me. I've gone on Twitter with my old
man takes and been called a boomer about how the
game is changing for the younger audience and the marketing
has changed. But John Sterling, Vin Scully, Bob Buker, these
are just kind of like sad signs that baseball is
(20:02):
not what it was when I was growing up. But
John Stroy, what a legend, What a legend.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
What an absolute legend. And Isaac, I know you're obviously
a play by play savant. You do a great job yourself.
You know the history of so many broadcasters, and Sterling
had some epic calls of his own.
Speaker 12 (20:21):
Let's take you back to Game six of the nineteen
ninety six World Series, the start of the Yankees' most
recent dynasty, and here they are one strike and one
out away from winning it against the Atlanta Braves.
Speaker 13 (20:37):
Once again, it'll be a free too stretch and bitch
swung on and popped up again all third.
Speaker 14 (20:44):
Hey have room, Hey, great bookat yek winyek win for
New York Yankee. I've won the nineteen ninety six World period.
They have promoted every town, they have fun every method.
Speaker 12 (21:03):
And you guys bring up a really fascinating broader issue.
You mentioned John Sterling, Bob Yucker, Vin Scully. These people
come on the air and you instantly recognize them, and
I think we're kind of losing that distinctiveness in this
generation because of the personalities themselves, but also sports are
(21:26):
consumed in different ways now than they were when we
were all growing up. There's not so much radio on
the back porch anymore. It's your phone. There's not so
much hey, the TV on in the living room and
the family room while we're walking in and out, which
is how we grew up to. Whatever game is on
(21:47):
the air now, it's maybe streaming on your specific device.
But the whole family is not exposed to it. So
I think you guys make a great point about the
broader issue.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
What's kind of.
Speaker 12 (21:58):
Poignant is not only is it a far farewell to
a particular beloved broadcaster, it's also a farewell to kind
of the way we grew up consuming sports.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
One of the great things that I loved about John
Sterling was it was at first Yankees win, no Yankees win.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
So that these win.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yankee So it's something like that outside of New York
that starts to catch on. But then it's then what
happens is it's the nicknames. And that's what I will
always remember. Like you want to know how you've made it,
it's when the Yankees would sign someone new and you
(22:42):
wanted them to hit a home run for the first time.
You see, he was going to say what the nickname
was going to be. Here's some of John Sterling's greatest hits.
Speaker 12 (22:51):
Yeah, and here it's funny should mention that here was
the first time he called it. John Carlos Stanton home run,
swung on and drill.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
The deep right center field.
Speaker 13 (23:00):
That is far he is gone. In his first Yankee
at bet John Carlo non see pul Stove Parlow. It
is a Stantonian home run, a two run blast or
right center in his first Yankee at bet and the
Yankees take a two nothing leave.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
I didn't know it was that easy.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
And there was extra, there was extra the Stantonian and
Joan Carlo. There's more. There's more from John Sterling one two, swung.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
On and driven a deep left toward the line.
Speaker 13 (23:35):
She is gone, Aaron Judge line, run right down the line,
a judge in blast all rise, here comes the judge.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Oh my goodness, it's it's great. It gets better and better.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
The grande man can the grande man cannon.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Even if it doesn't make any sense. And we would
rate them on a scale of one to ten, and
we would say that's a two. That's not good. That
was really good, that was a nine. Whatever he did,
he stuck with and then it just became a part
of Yankee history. Oo.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Sorry, what is the difference hitting on every What everyone
is saying, Isaac and Jason, baseball play by play is
different than any other sport when it comes to the radio.
Like I don't know if it's just because other sports
play by play, It's like I can keep up, but
it's not like baseball.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
Like baseball, I feel like I'm.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Watching it even though I'm on the sitting in my
car listening, like I can see it all happen.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
I don't know if it's maybe the pace of the
game which makes it so much easier, But.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Like the play by play announcers that I know that
I could be like, oh, I remember that, they're all baseball.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
They're all baseball. There's not one where I could part
you know, yeah, Ralph Laller of the Clippers. But that's
for me personally.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
I don't know if I could tell you like another
personal NBA play by play guy.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Obviously, Okay, I'm in LA, but I'm also in LA,
so it's like.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
You're also breaking how young you are compared to us.
But I get I get it.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
That's no, you're right, they hear yes, but you know,
like even Checkert, you're right, but I'm in LA.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
So is that because I'm in.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
LA that I also know that one?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Yeah, I think that would be a part of it.
Like I think that people didn't realize that Bob Buker
was actually the voice of the Brewers for as long
as he was. They thought he was on mister Belvedere
and Johnny Carson and all of those things, but to
so many Brewers fans, he was the voice of the
Brewers and so many other broadcasters, whether it be Ernie Harwell,
you know with the with the Tigers, and I you're
(25:38):
right about that. I think it's the pace of it.
I think it's the schedule. Yeah, I think it's the
feel of summer where you'd go and you know, working
out in the yard, having a good time, turning on
the ball game while you're out there with friends like
all of that I think ends up fitting.
Speaker 12 (25:57):
And I would say that the point of what makes
baseball in the so special. You use the phrase keep
keeping up. It's not so much to keep up with
the game, it's to keep people company. And yeah, there's
a certain charm about it. I mentioned listening to the
radio on your back porch, listening in the car. There's
(26:17):
just a charm about baseball on the radio that's unique.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
My family where they live in Wisconsin. I mean, how
many people would have the radio headset. I'm not talking
about walk man, like when you're mowing the lawn to
listen or put your ear earbuds in like this is
the pre where you would have an antenna. This is
pre that sort of and they'd listen to the Brewer
games as they drive the riding lawnmower and just molawn.
(26:42):
It's part of the past time and I'm sure John
Sterling was part of I'm sure people were doing that
on Long Island, turning on the Yankees game, doing the
yard work, you know, in the summertime, and enjoying bets
sad news. As John Sterling passed away, but we were
able to honor him in a certain way. One thing,
Jason Stewart.
Speaker 11 (27:00):
One thing too. And you guys can can confirm or
deny this. I want to say John Sterling was largely
the one voice on the on the broadcast. I know
that Susie was a voice, but like with John Miller
and the Giants right now, if you sign up to
be his commentator, you're you're saying a couple of words
of broadcast. It's just a known thing. John Miller dominates
(27:20):
the broadcast. Vin Scully did it all by himself. Imagine
the skill set of being able to speak on your
own for three and a half hours every night, one
hundred and sixty two nights a year and That's what
kind of makes it special too. That's why there's a
special relationship with the listener, and that now it's largely
play by play with a next athlete, and it's very
(27:42):
what do you call that homogene? I don't even know
what the word is. It's a dying era, not to
pun not intended of people that kind of just dominated
the broadcast like that.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
You know, thirty one Yankee games. He called John Sterling
passing away at the age of eighty seven. She's, yeah,
a lot of games. She's Monty Blago. So I'm Dan Byer.
Jason Stewart, isac Lowancron Iowa Sam hanging out with us today.
Great to hear some of the calls from John Sterling.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
The NFL Draft is in our rear view mirror for sure,
but there is an ESPN show coming out of behind
the scenes look at the NFL Draft, and they've been
leaking some of the information. Something shocked me from a
clip that they sent out with the Cowboys and Eagles
making that trade that allowed Philadelphia to get Mackay Lemon.
We knew the drama of him being on the phone
(29:38):
with the Steelers being Lemon and then the Eagles calling
in at that time, but something else surprised me about it.
We're picking it up in the Cowboys war room with
Steven and Jerry Jones taking center stage.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Who's the best candidates?
Speaker 14 (29:51):
If you would lamb on play, yeah, Philly, just call out.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Oh well, he's call. We're gonna be given six. I'm
hoping he'll call and say we'll go the two fours.
Speaker 9 (30:08):
We've got time.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
We've got a few minutes, not like we're down to
twenty seconds. We worked trying to call me. I'll tell
him I'm calling it. Hold hello, Howie, Howie, Hey this Steven.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
How you doing?
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Man?
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Shame exchanging numbers our seventh next year? We just we're good. No,
we don't want to. We're already giving.
Speaker 11 (30:43):
Up picks for this year.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
We're out of them. We're out of picks.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
But anyway, we for sure do it for the two fours. Good,
I'll throw you a next year seven.
Speaker 13 (30:57):
Okay, we got a deal, Pots and football makes strange, bedfellow.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
The Eagles and Cowboys made nouns in this trade. Listen
to this.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
He picked. Yes, this is Stephen Jones.
Speaker 9 (31:11):
We're trading this pick to Philadelphia.
Speaker 11 (31:13):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (31:14):
See, we're trading pick twenty five for their pick twenty three,
and and we get there one fourteen and one thirty
seven in the fourth.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Okay, and we give.
Speaker 9 (31:29):
Back our seventh next year of.
Speaker 13 (31:32):
It next year.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Okay, there it is.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Deal is done. That took what one hundred seconds? I
don't know why. I thought NFL trades were way more complicated,
way more Okay. We've got Stephen Jones on one line.
We've got Howie Roseman on the other. Mister Rosemond, do
you and the Eagles agree to this deal? I agree?
I therefy certify this trade. Stephen Jones and the Cowboys
(31:58):
do you agree to this trade? Yes? I agree. None
of that, No, none of that. It's Stephen Jones saying, hey, Tess,
I think that may have been her name. We just
swing a deal. We're going to pick here. Their Eagles
are moving up, we're dropping back. We get a couple
of their picks. She was about to hang up before
he even said, oh, by the way, we also are
giving them their seventh round pick. That's how quick this happens.
(32:19):
And it happens in a timeframe which should be quick
because now they only have eight minutes to pick. It's
more difficult to make a trade in my fantasy football
draft than it is in an NFL draft and just
hearing how quickly that went down. We don't have any picks.
Guess what will take you too? For us? We do
have a seventh week can give you all Right, we'll
do it, let's do it, boom done. I was blown
away on how easy that trade went down.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
It was easy, and everything just seems so cash just
like no big deal, like let's just oh yeah, won't
you call?
Speaker 4 (32:47):
Yeah, yeah, we've got time. We don't have twenty seconds,
we've two minutes, we've got five. It seemed very casual.
I will yeah, it was. It was a lot harder
for me to delete my Facebook than for them to
make a trade.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
It was it was like that it was a one
hundred se seconds in that time, like that's really what
it was, Like a minute forty that's all that it
took for them to be able to swing the deal.
And I'm on the phone with a buddy like okay,
I'll give you a fourth and a seventh, and he's like, well,
how about it's sixth. No, I'll give you all about
the third and the ninth. No, I can't do that.
Like it's mind blowing that the NFL makes it so
(33:19):
easy Yeah, No, you're right, I'm turning down those deals.
Speaker 5 (33:22):
Nope, I'm sorry you're having such a hard time trading
in your fantasy Poe.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Don't you think it would be more official?
Speaker 9 (33:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (33:28):
No, yes, yes, absolutely. It seemed very casual. That's what
I mean by that, very casual.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
Watching that video, if you haven't seen the video, it's
even more casual than it sounds to me, like, I
couldn't believe that's how I went down.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I mean, am I the only one here? Do you
guys think that there was more to it than just
Stephen Jones picking up the phone and saying we made
a deal?
Speaker 11 (33:46):
Wasn't your initial reaction after the day after the draft
when we did the show that you were surprised that
the Cowboys did that at all? Yes, that's the dynamic
here too, right, Yeah, he's dealing with somebody who's there
our tribal in the division.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Yeah, in the division, like why would you want to
do what the Eagles wanted to do? And from that
it was just the Cowboys trying to get more picks
and Philadelphia was willing to do so.
Speaker 12 (34:08):
It takes me longer at the drive through window, to
be honest with you, It took me months to cancel
my Facebook, months come back to Facebook.
Speaker 9 (34:16):
Never.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
No, it took us years to believe in Joel embiid.
Have we finally Have we finally arrived? Has the process
been completed? That's next on Fox

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
