You have the breaking news just in about Kyler Murray.
I want to hit on that there's also a reason
(00:43):
why Kenneth Walker the Third is the luckiest guy in
the world and there's no reason to feel sorry for
Kenneth Walker the Third that he may not be returning
to the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks, where he just
won a Most Valuable Player award. Kenneth Walker the third

end of the show. But I'd be I feel like
(01:25):
I'm missing out on an opportunity because tag you're at, Jason,
on a scale of one to ten, how well did
that work out from what you had in your mind
to how we executed it about ten minutes ago.
Speaker 6 (01:39):
I think the execution it worked out the way I
think I wanted it. The problem was I got the
sourcing wrong. I should have sourced it better. So having
the clues not be right, that's a that's a flaw
on a game.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Now wait a minute, you're saying that chat GPT might
not be one hundred reliable for sports information.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
And you know where I'm going with this, Jason, and
I'm going to your left, to my right, Iowa, Sam,
is there any any sort of like vindication? Do you
have chicken skin goosebumps knowing that because Jason is on
your case about your use of Google and I mean,
I think Jason, you'd admit it. You kind of got
screwed by the Chat.
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Ai.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Is there any any vindication for you, Iowa, Sam, any
sort of feel.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
With you know, let's just uh, let's go back in
time real quick.
Speaker 8 (02:29):
We were trying to for whatever reason, we were trying
to figure out who was going to be opening up for?
Speaker 7 (02:34):
What was this on the Doug Gottlieb Show. Was that
may have been?
Speaker 8 (02:36):
Yeah, it was a while ago. I think I was
looking up through Google AI, not Chat GPT, but still
AI search engine.
Speaker 7 (02:45):
Yeah, we're in the ballpark.
Speaker 8 (02:46):
We're in the ballpark, and I used Google AI and
I was like, who's opening up for?
Speaker 7 (02:52):
Who's opening up for? Nate Bargatsy?
Speaker 8 (02:53):
And I got like a heavy metal band, and I'm like, okay,
And I should have just I should have like held
that information myself and cross referenced it with other things
on the internet. But I just went ahead and open
mic and I put that out into the world, and
you guys had a field day at my expense. But
now I do feel a little bit vindicated.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
I didn't know if you ever clemmed there, if that's
why you had to take Oh yeah, there's part of
that too, yeah, yes, And it was also I thought
it was like a death metal band.
Speaker 8 (03:17):
That Yeah, it was like a heavy metal you know,
a starter start the comedy show with a heavy death
metal act and then go to the comedy.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Well, if you hear a little more pep and Ia
Sam's step, maybe that's why.
Speaker 7 (03:28):
But I'll tell you what.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
I liked the concept of tag Urtt and congrats to
whoever won. I think it was Ryan Bersching or that
we settled on for at the end, So congrats to
Bursch on that game.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
It is franchise tag day.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
The Arizona Cardinals didn't need to franchise tag Kyler Murray
because he was already under contract.
Speaker 7 (03:44):
They were trying to get rid of that contract and
they did. Isaac.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
Can you read me the quote from Kyler Murray in
speaking on his release from the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I would be glad to he posted to everyone that
supported me and showed kindness to my family and I
during my time in Arizona. From the bottom of the
my heart, thank you. I wanted nothing more than to
be the one to end the seventy seven year dropt
for this organization. I'm sorry I failed us. I wish
this community and my brother is nothing but the best.
I'm no stranger to adversity. I'm prepared for whatever is next.
I trust in God and my work ethic. I truly
(04:15):
believe my best ball is in front of me, and
I look forward to proving it. Godspeed.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
A lot of that is nice, thank yous going all
around appreciating his time. But the part of you wanted
nothing more than ending the seventy seven year championship drought
of the Arizona Cardinals is a lie. That is a
lie that is not true. That's you don't play whatever,
Minecraft for Grand Theft Auto whatever games that he was
so stuck on playing video games. You don't scrub the
(04:42):
Arizona Cardinals immediately from your IG when you're trying to
stronghand them three minutes after you become eligible for a
contract extension. Those words are all nice on paper, but
they're just not true. It's not he did not want
to end. I'm not saying he didn't want to win,
but I'm just saying that it wasn't his main source
of motive. So when you say that you wanted nothing
(05:02):
more than to end a Super Bowl draughtory World Championship
drought for the Cardinals organization, then that is a lie.
That is a lie. But Kyler Murray will find somewhere
else to play, not a shock. I know that Arizona
even talked to teams about possibly trying to trade Kyler Murray,
but ultimately just becomes a free agent and now consign
(05:24):
elsewhere and there will be suitors for Kyler Murray. And honestly,
it's going to become the biggest offseason story that we've
got unless there is a trade of a significant player.
Because of the draft that we have with Fernando Mendoza
going number one, it isn't a huge draft, go crazy
sort of process we're going to have at the end
of April. So Kyler Murray's whereabouts will be the number
(05:44):
one story we follow in this NFL offseason. Kenneth Walker
the Third's whereabouts could be number two because he is
set for free agency after the Seahawks failed to reach
a long term deal with him and did not use
the franchise tag on him. Now they could come up
with a deal, but it seems very likely that Kenneth
Walker is heading to free agency. And there's a reason
(06:06):
why you should not feel bad for Kenneth Walker. Number One,
the Seahawks were not going to pay Kenneth Walker what
he could get on the open market. Just it's not
going to happen, very realistic opportunity. Even heading into the season,
there wasn't the thought that Seattle would bring back Kenneth
Walker on a new deal.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
And when you.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Saw his usage throughout the season, it was split fifty
to fifty with Zach Charbonay. And the reason why you
don't need to feel bad for Kenneth Walker is because
of what happened to Zach Charbonay. Kenneth Walker the third
made himself millions of dollars during the playoff run, Millions
upon millions of dollars that some other NFL team will
pay him. I'm sure Seattle has an opportunity to tell
(06:49):
Kenneth Walker, if you don't like the prices you get,
come back to us and we'll see what we can do.
But I just don't think Seattle's gonna pay Kenneth Walker
what he wants to pay. And I think that there
are thirty one teams in the NFL or at least
one other team of the thirty one that will pay
Kenneth Walker a significant amount for what he did in
the month of January and February. For the Seattle Seahawks.
(07:09):
Winning a Super Bowl MVP does not hurt. Going over
one hundred yards in the Super Bowl in the previous
two games prior to that does not hurt, and Kenneth
Walker the Third would not have those opportunities. If Zach
Charboney was healthy, you would have seen more of the
split that you had throughout the season. And so he
took full advantage of the injury, loaded the Seahawks offense
(07:31):
on his back in the Super Bowl. Was a worthy
candidate of winning Super Bowl MVP and now will be
handsomely rewarded for it. It just may not be in
a Seahawks uniform. I know that could be difficult for
some Seahawks fans to see, but that's the way that
it works. That's the way it was going to be
throughout the season, and because of what transpired, there was
(07:52):
no bigger winner than Kenneth Walker the Third over the
last two months, and so now he can go and
find and strike a new deal likely with the new team.
That's where we are with Kenneth Walker the third. I've
got an issue with Breece Hall. Brice Hall was tagged
by the New York Jets and Isaiac. I don't know
if you have the details exclusive non exclusive tag on
(08:14):
the Jets running back, but it's not about what the
Jets did or didn't do. We knew that they were
going to place some sort of tag on Breece Hall.
It just was a matter of when, before the deadline
that they were going to be able to do something.
The details on the Breece Hall tag are.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
What fourteen million dollar non exclusive tag. This means that
the Jets can match another offer and if he takes
the other offer, they get compensation, unlike the Colts with
the transition tag of Daniel Jones.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
Now Kyler Murray lied in his statement because he didn't
want he wanted. He wanted so much more than just
the Cardinals winning a world championship, which is why the
Cardinals had a problem with him and his study habits
and his preparation. So that was a lie saying he
wanted nothing more than the Cardinals to end their championship
(09:03):
route of seventy seven years. It's nice to stay in
a statement, but it wasn't true. Brice Hall released a statement,
although it was a social media post on x more
than anything, that it may be true, but it absolutely
makes no sense. Brice Hall took to social media upon
news that he was going to be having the franchise
(09:27):
tag placed on him and said this quote. Always been
the type to bet on myself. Been working see y'all soon.
That makes zero sense. I don't understand how getting the
non exclusive franchise tag placed on you. The Jets at
least saying we want you a part of this team
unless somebody gives us a crazy offer that we have
(09:50):
to accept. You will still get paid a significant amount
of money in any scenario. Any scenario, a long term
deal with us, a long term deal from another team
that wants to bring you in that will then give
you draft will give us draft picks, or just the
franchise tag itself. Betting on yourself isn't staying around and
getting paid. Betting on yourself is what Joe Flacco did
(10:14):
about fifteen years ago when he played out the final
year of his contract to the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 7 (10:20):
Didn't give him a long term deal.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
So what you know, what he did went out and
won a Super Bowl, was betting on himself. This makes
no sense. And this is not the first time that
we've had someone in the NFL say something that makes
no sense whatsoever. We bring you one of the more
popular sound bites that we have had in the NFL
over the last ten years that still makes no sense
to this day.
Speaker 9 (10:41):
They wrote me off, I ain't right back though, that's
the problem. I'm right back, Let's go.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
Gino Smith, Jason Stewart, Iowa, Sam Isaac Lohencron. I remember
the game. It was against the Broncos. It was the
return of Russell Wilson. Geno Smith leads the Seahawks to video,
so too victory and in that video, in that piece
of audio, Geno Smith again says, they.
Speaker 9 (11:02):
Wrote me off. I ain't right back though. That's the problem.
I ain't right back, Let's go.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
I don't know what that means to this day, I
have no idea what that means. Sounds good though, it
sounds sounds really good like he didn't write back, But
that's not what writing off means. And so when Brice
Hall says, always been the type to bet on myself.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
You're risking nothing here. Breece.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
Hall's actually in a weird way, in a decent spot
where he's either going to play under the franchise tag
or he's gonna get a long term deal. Betting on yourself,
I guess, would just not be signing anything at all.
And that's truly not betting on yourself. That's actually putting
yourself in a bad situation. But this makes no sense.
But even after all these years, I'm still trying to
figure out what Geno Smith because it's not like they
(11:49):
wrote him a letter saying we don't want you here anymore.
It's the exact opposite, right, they're discarding him. They are
moving off of him. Nobody wanted Geno Smith, except the
Seattle Seahawks, who said, not only do we want you,
we're gonna give you the starting gig or we're gonna
trade Russell Wilson. We're not gonna bring in another quarterback.
We're gonna trade Russell Wilson for a bunch of first
(12:10):
round picks. And we actually believe in you enough that
when you filled in for him last year when he
was hurt, that you can do the job. But then
it leads to, once again the SoundBite that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
Gino swaw me off.
Speaker 9 (12:22):
I ain't right back though, that's the problem.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
I ain't right back. Let's go. I love it.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
It drives me bonkers, but I absolutely love it.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
Jason Stewart Gina like it. Just made up this rule.
He just made up the rule in that moment that
the only way that anyone could ever be written off
is if they write back. So you're not written off
until you have written a letter and gone down to
the post office, put a stamp on it and written back.
(12:51):
Then you're officially written off. Until then, you're just in
this limbook.
Speaker 10 (12:55):
Are we sure?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Are we sure that he did not right back this
season with the I'm just.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Yeah, he penned about an eight page essay. Unfortunately they
say he can't go home again. Look who's making his
bed like that? That would be that's see, I just
made that one up on the spot.
Speaker 9 (13:12):
Bye, right back though, that's the problem.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Alright, right back, let's let's go, let's go, and everybody
ate it up. Everybody was still used to this day.
So I just don't know why Bryce Hall is betting
on himself. When the New York Jets have just said,
all right, you're either gonna get paid a lot of
money by us, or you're gonna get paid a lot
of money by someone else. Joe Flacco bet on himself.
That's that's betting on yourself, not having that that safety net.
(13:37):
Breese Hall has a safety net and so much more.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
Take take like our industry, for example, there's a lot
of podcasters that are betting on themselves, like going independent
or just doing their own thing. That is truly betting
on on yourself. To apply this example to the podcast example,
it's like Joe Smith saying I'm betting on myself while
iHeartMedia has secure hear him for two years for a
(14:01):
two million a year. I'm betting on myself as this
corporation has paid a lot of money to me.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
My podcast has only got a one year deal, but
I'm betting on myself because I could get a huge
deal after that. That's me betting on myself. Breesall back
with the Jets is not a crazy thought. It absolutely
could happen. And if a team wants to pony up,
if maybe they don't want Kenneth Walker, who's the luckiest
man in football, they can maybe try to swing a
deal for Breeshall. But let's be real, Kenneth Walker is
(14:29):
a very very lucky man. Kyler Murray's lying to us,
Breese Hall, you are in a very very good situation.
It is Stu Gotson Company Live here on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Jake, We'll get to his last name in just a second.
From John Boy Media is joining us. Thanks to Bamadi
Jones for joining us in hour number one. He is
the host of Talking Baseball with Trevor Ploof Am I
saying that last name correctly, nailed it, nail all right,
and also talking Yanks and I can't wait. Just what
I need? Another Yankee fan on the zoom here. But Jake,
(15:24):
how do you pronounce your last name because I asked
you this before we started. I asked you a question
and you answered the question about your last name with
a question.
Speaker 11 (15:31):
So so, story Lee, I think is where we traditionally
land story Reale.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
See, I don't even know.
Speaker 11 (15:38):
I think I just told you story Alley before we
have on the mics, and then story al comes up.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
That.
Speaker 10 (15:42):
Man, it's one of those things. Just as a little kid.
Speaker 11 (15:46):
You heard all of it, and I don't really care,
and nobody in my family gets that like Italian.
Speaker 10 (15:52):
Tough about it. So I don't know story Ellie.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Sure, yeah, but it's your last name. Listen, Okay, my
last name was Weener. I heard all of it. Okay,
you didn't hear anything. Just how do you prot out
your last night?
Speaker 10 (16:03):
Call me, Jake Wiener. I don't know. I'm good with
I'm good with all of.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
It, all right, Jake Wiener as well? Here Steve Gotson
company Jake.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Before we get to I know, we want to discuss
some baseball, but I'm wondering just more of a macro
thing here with the game. Are you in favor of
someone who loves baseball? Would you want to see a
salary cap installed in major League Baseball.
Speaker 10 (16:26):
So I do not.
Speaker 11 (16:27):
I originally did when when we first got into this,
as you know, we kind of got thrown into the
industry by accident a little bit.
Speaker 10 (16:35):
Because I love the beauty of sports.
Speaker 11 (16:37):
I love you know that the bottom part of baseball
is a problem, and I believe in competition and a
fair playing field. But a salary camp isn't the answer
to that, Like that's other sports have that, and we
see teams that still struggle year in year out with
it that it's how you run your organization. And as
(16:57):
we got close to the players, I guess this is
the part that I don't know if I've been too
blinded by it.
Speaker 10 (17:02):
Players will never accept a salary cap.
Speaker 11 (17:04):
And ever when I saw the Otani contract and the
way players have talked about it, like that's why, so
they they will never and there's not there really isn't
a need to except kind of we just see it
in the other sports and like, oh, that's what they do,
but that doesn't mean it works.
Speaker 10 (17:21):
So no, I am not.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Is there a small part of you that wonders if
it was capped, if the Dodgers would be this good?
Speaker 10 (17:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Right of course, yes.
Speaker 11 (17:31):
Come on, man, it's no you know, I know we're
gonna get into a little bit of recent Yankee nostalgia,
but like the way that people talk about the Dodgers
are kind of the Yankees teams I grew up with that.
I don't send a lot of hate towards the Dodgers there.
They're One advantage that I still don't know how I
feel about is if every good Asian player wants to
(17:53):
sign there instead of somewhere else, that's kind of tough because,
by the way, they won the last WBC Japan, so
that is the one advantage. Otherwise they can do whatever,
like it was called the Coen Techs. The Yankees used
to be that team, so I don't get as bothered
by it as everyone else. And then my jab to
the Dodgers on the way out. If IKF gets a
(18:14):
secondary lead, they don't win the last World Series.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
So nice Jet, well done.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
Well.
Speaker 12 (18:19):
But Jake, you compare it to the Yankees teams that
we grew up watching, and they were the problem, you
know back then, But they were also built on homegrown
players that they then paid. They weren't built on Oh
that's the best player available from that market. I'm going
to sign him because you look at this Dodgers lineup
(18:40):
top to bottom and it's like two guys that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Came up through their system.
Speaker 10 (18:45):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 11 (18:47):
I guess the where they deserve more credit is a
they're ahead of pretty much every organization on every front.
So like they've had prospects, they just trade them like
they traded for Mookie Bets that one didn't end up
hurting them. And then the other thing where they do
deserve credit is, yes, they're spending money, but how many
teams do we talk about them having that one contract
(19:08):
that kills them. The Dodgers don't really have that. Like, yes,
they get a little bit more flexibility around their pitching
where they had a ton of injuries and they could
take a chance on Glass, now they could take a
chance on Snell even though they have an injury history
where other teams don't have to do that. But Matt
Freddie Freeman was a free agent and didn't want to
go there, remember the hole.
Speaker 10 (19:27):
He wanted to stay in Atlanta.
Speaker 11 (19:29):
Like they have where they have spent their money, they've
done really good at it, so they they deserve credit
on all fronts. And yes, it's you know, there's a
lot of teams that wish they could spend half of
what the Dodgers do, So I do get that part
of it. But the Dodgers, no one should be knocking
what they've done like they've They've crushed it.
Speaker 13 (19:49):
Okay, Dodgers clear best team in baseball. They add Kyle
Tucker Edwin Diaz to kind of address the only weaknesses
they had. It feels like this year going into the season,
the gap between like teams two through twelve is razor thin,
and it just kind of comes down to what you prefer.
Who do you think is the second best team in
baseball as we enter this season?
Speaker 11 (20:11):
Man, we just did power rankings because as oh wow,
I'm sure Stu knows like that click has worked throughout
time and it is such a losing exercise, especially right
now with where baseball is at that I honestly and
this wasn't for the click, This wasn't for the view.
Speaker 10 (20:28):
When I was.
Speaker 11 (20:28):
Looking at all the teams, the team I feel the
second most confident about is the Milwaukee Brewers because I
know on the pitching side of the ball, they are
advanced above most other teams and they actually have talented
like MS Rowski's a freak show. Brandon Woodriff when you
actually go through his numbers, who he has been since
the twenty twenties, Like he's the leader, that they have
(20:50):
a great bullpen every year, they catch the ball every
year and between contrarasts between Chario, between Yelich and then
everyone else on their team who runs well, catches the
ball well, and does something else well. Like I know
that they're going to put a good product out there
that I put them second on my power rankings, and
I power rankings. Where it gets tricky is if you
(21:11):
just look at talent on paper. I don't know if
I pick them, but when I look at the uniform
and who.
Speaker 10 (21:16):
They have, I do.
Speaker 12 (21:18):
Who's a team that you're kind of lower on that
a lot of people are are really high on.
Speaker 10 (21:23):
Ooh, this is the fun part. Yeah, right, let's see.
Speaker 11 (21:29):
The team that got the most mad at me was
the New York Metropolitans.
Speaker 10 (21:33):
I had them at eleventh.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Right when you say they got mad at you, Jake,
I'm sorry to cut you off.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Like what happened there?
Speaker 1 (21:39):
You put out the power rankings and someone from the
Mets reach out to you.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
What happened?
Speaker 11 (21:42):
So you will know like we're it's a losing game
and where our social media team couldn't get more excited
when we do power rankings because we're right.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Because they know they know they're mindless and fake and
they mean nothing.
Speaker 10 (21:53):
Right preseason Baseball power rankings.
Speaker 11 (21:57):
You're really you're really in it that the Mets fans
like they arguably had a top three off season, but
they're also okay, if I'm respecting the Brewers jersey, I
still see a little something with the Mets jersey, and
they had an epic collapse last year while also losing
their franchise leader in home runs like the Lindor injury.
(22:20):
Now going into the season, they have a lot of
positions that are open in different ways that like, I
shouldn't be in love with the Mets. I see there's
a lot of talent there, but that was probably the
one that people were the most hot about.
Speaker 10 (22:35):
But that could also just be Mets Yankee stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Taylor and Mike have been annoying me because they're upset
about the vibes around this Yankee team because they are
running back basically the same exact team as they had
last year.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
How do you feel.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
About the vibes of the Yankees, and can you tell
Taylor and Mikey to shut them up?
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah? No, I love you guys. Vibes the Yankees running
the same team.
Speaker 7 (23:01):
I mean, the team is good.
Speaker 11 (23:03):
The team is good. And that's where it's two different
things here. It's the Yankee fans we're told to be
and it's the Yankee fans we are now, like like
we're talking about the Dodgers on a different pantheon, which okay,
that should be strike one right there. And then if
you go through teams two through twelve kind of like
Taylor mentioned, like, they're the same right now, and that's
(23:25):
not what the Yankees are supposed to be.
Speaker 10 (23:27):
So in that way, it's right.
Speaker 11 (23:29):
In another way, they do have some pitching depth and
some you know, they had technically the best lineup last year,
which there's some judge funny business math in there. But
they also have that guy. So let's take the funny
business math. And I just think maybe Baseball's I don't
want to say baseball's problem right now, because there's a
couple of them, but it's two seasons. It's survived the
(23:52):
first half of the season and see how good your
team is, and then the trade deadline, fill your holes.
The Yankees brought in a whole different back end of
the last year, Like you can add at the deadline
now if you're willing to give up actual prospect capital.
Speaker 10 (24:07):
And the Yankees actually do have some.
Speaker 11 (24:08):
Real prospect capital this year, not the Yankees, heype machine
prospect capital.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Which team in Major League Baseball top to bottom has
the best pitching staff?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Is that obvious? Is it the Dodgers?
Speaker 11 (24:18):
Or yeah, the Dodgers aren't an interesting scale. I guess
if it's not.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Should talk about baseball and exclude the Dodgers from the conversation.
Speaker 11 (24:27):
That's kind of what it is, and that's that's insane.
But I would say the two teams that jump out
are Seattle and the Phillies. The Phillies off Zach Wheeler
comes back, and is that Zach Wheeler. Their bullpen on
the back end is actually stronger than it's looked like
in past years with Dron and they Brad Keller, who's
kind of one of those new starters who's transitioning to
(24:48):
the bullpen very well. And Seattle like they're somehow we've
become bored with their starting pitching group, but they're there
and you know, they kind of made their first leap
next year. This is kind of the real test of like,
all right, who are they gonna be?
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, Seattle's just boring, right, Like, we don't care about Seattle.
It's so far removed from all the other states, Like
it's just up there in the Northwest. It's by Canada,
it's close to Vancouver. I mean, the Seahawks won a
Super Bowl and everyone yawned.
Speaker 11 (25:15):
You know, it's an interesting because you know they got
that Pat the twelfth Man, right, No, man, it's bizarre.
I had a weird I'm on my couch last night
and I see the video of Julio Rodriguez coming off
the coming off the team bus for Team dr and
I'm like, okay, so we've got one of the most
handsome fellas on the planet place maybe my favorite position
(25:36):
defensively as well as anyone. And it's like, and okay,
they're catchers, big dumper, Like what what simulation is this that? Yes,
there should be something a little sexier about Seattle.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Right, except you feel like you need a passport when
you travel there.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
I mean it's a different place, yes, you tell it.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Put that on the poll. Do you need a passport
when you travel to Seattle.
Speaker 13 (25:56):
God, Jake, it feels like me and mikey a align
on those things. When it comes to Yankees. One of
the things recently that we kind of had a disagreement on.
I don't think CC Sabbathia is Jersey retirement great when
it comes to the Yankees, and I'm curious where you
kind of fall there.
Speaker 11 (26:14):
It's CC listening, No, I man, I don't know I
what CC Sabathia represented for the Yankees coming over from
H nine winning that World Series, who he was as
a leader, and I guess where he is in baseball history.
The thing that we've referenced on talking Yanks, because you know, CC,
(26:34):
when you look at the career stats and all pitchers
are in this place right now, that the Hall of
Fame is gonna have to kind of change how they
look at starting pitchers. CEC is the third lefty ever
to strike out three thousand hitters, And when you think
about that, you're like, ok, I think Carlton and Randy Johnson.
Speaker 10 (26:51):
So like, I don't know who C. C. Sabathia is
in the game.
Speaker 11 (26:56):
I get that there's a Yankee side to that argument
that you know, if you started ranking each Yankee by
uniform number. CEC's probably towards the bottom third there. There's
a couple others behind CEC. That it is what it
is that like, I don't know, I'm I'm not out
here to knock who Reggie Jackson was because I didn't
feel like who he was in that moment. Sec Heed's
(27:16):
larger than life. He represents New York. Well, he's still
around the team. That it's I don't know, I'm not
punching pillows at home, Like.
Speaker 10 (27:23):
Can you believe this? Like and it's a fine number
to retire like that?
Speaker 2 (27:28):
When do you punch pillows at home?
Speaker 7 (27:29):
What makes you like we're talking?
Speaker 11 (27:31):
Yeah, uh god, that's uh no, I'm not going there,
not going But.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
How many of those strikeouts came as a Yankee? You know?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
It's like, yeah, you hang around the team, doesn't mean
you get your jersey retired.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
I mean it's the Yankees, man.
Speaker 11 (27:47):
I know, I know, And maybe maybe I'm part of
the problem now that I this is where Yankees have
let each little half inch slip that we've gotten to
this point.
Speaker 10 (27:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (27:58):
Of all my qualms of the Yankees are organization, uh
in doctoring CC more into the family.
Speaker 10 (28:04):
I'm I have no qualms with that, Stu.
Speaker 13 (28:06):
As a Yankee fan, it feels sacrilegious. When I'm walking around,
I'm like, hey, maybe we didn't need to retire Paul
Neil's number.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Yeah, well yeah, it's act religious. I think he might
be more deserving.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
But if I'm sitting there and I'm rattling off Yankee
greats in terms of pictures, it's gonna take me a
while before I get to C. C.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Sabbathia, you know.
Speaker 10 (28:27):
Ah, So that's where I get caught up.
Speaker 11 (28:30):
And now, if we're really doing this like the Yankees,
pitching lifetime is a lot slimmer than the hitting that
I think CC might crack that rotation.
Speaker 10 (28:38):
Are you a Whitey Ford guy?
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I am a white I just it's so funny.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
I just wrote down Whitey Ford on a piece of
I didn't finish it.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I wrote fo R. But that just reminds me that
it's Ford.
Speaker 11 (28:48):
I've got other illusions for it. No, man, this is
where I don't have the historian side yet. I think
that's gonna be like my upcoming midlife crisis where I
deep dive into all of the Yankee stats and I can,
but like, I don't know. I heard I heard Kellerman
and Simmons the other day debating if Gidrey's number should
be retired, and I don't know.
Speaker 10 (29:08):
I see him show up. He's got a sick nickname.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Some of the numbers are Louisiana Lightning.
Speaker 11 (29:12):
I mean, yeah, comparing Guidriy and Sabathia, I can't. I
can't have that conversation currently.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Here's the way I like to do these things, Jake.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
If I were to ask you, okay, one game scenario,
start for your life, Okay, Ceec, Sabbathi or David Combe?
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Who you take it?
Speaker 10 (29:30):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (29:32):
You taking? Come?
Speaker 10 (29:35):
I don't? I mean what age am I getting them at?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Like prime? You're getting prime of both? Okay?
Speaker 10 (29:41):
Did the Yankees have prime? Cone?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Because a lot of follow ups here, I mean, just
one picture. Choose what jesus? I mean, what was your question?
What was the second question?
Speaker 10 (29:49):
Did their prime on the Yankees?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Are there there?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
CEC's prime on the Yankees? David Cone's prime on the Yankees?
Speaker 11 (29:57):
I think I would go see ce just that when
he initially came over, he comes off that like Milwaukee Run.
Speaker 10 (30:04):
Where do you remember he took the ball every third.
Speaker 11 (30:07):
Day for the Brewers, just to do it like that's
He's one of the last dying breeds to ever do that.
And I feel like Coney when he came to the Yankees.
He was David Cohne, but he was a little older
David Cone. That that's all I'm going off.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I think older David Cone was better. It was cagey.
I mean he was I like, hey, I've.
Speaker 10 (30:23):
Got no again, Like this is the beauty.
Speaker 11 (30:26):
We could do this at the end of a bar
all day and there's right or wrong and that's Hey,
that's the beauty of it, all.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Right, Jake, Jake st Rally John Boy Media, he does
talking baseball with Trevor Ploof.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
I love that day and also talking Yanks as well. Man.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Opening Day cannot come soon enough for you, Jake. I
am concerned about you. You need games to watch. Stop
power ranking things that don't.
Speaker 7 (30:48):
Matter a right.

Speaker 7 (31:49):
Ally. Stu's even got me confused on Jake's last name.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Now, if you've heard me on Fox Sports Radio before,
I don't usually get too personal, but it may have
been brought up time and again that I do have
a four year old son. So I say this to you,
Jason and Sam and Isaac, who has a couple of kids.
There are things, and Jason's got a grown adult son,
so he understands this as well. There are things in
life that I never thought that I would know or
(32:14):
be exposed to because of your kid's interest. I don't
know what I thought that my kid would just love
football and basketball and golf and baseball and it would
just be all sports all the time. Well, he's big
in the dinosaurs, and he's also big into monster trucks,
and so now I see why monster trucks are such
a thing with young kids. A couple of weeks ago,
now we're based in southern California, we were supposed to
(32:36):
go to a monster truck show in Anaheim. My wife
then found out that it was outdoors, it was gonna
be at night, it was gonna be cooler. She didn't
want our son there. Okay, so guess what. We found
another show in Fresno this weekend. So on Sunday, we're
taking my four year old indoors, which will be even
worse for his ears. Don't worry, we'll have the headsets
(32:58):
on taking him to a monster truck.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
So now.
Speaker 5 (33:04):
You hear it, It's my opportunity because now I am
well versed on what a monster truck is in terms
of the names and who is performing. We're gonna play
a little Monster Dash and we're gonna heat up the rivalry.
As Iowa, Sam, you will be competing against Jason Stewart.
So your chat gbt AI rivalry now transitions over to
(33:27):
Monster Dash. Isaac Glohenkron is the judge. He will tell
you if you are correct. If your answer is correct,
you will hear this, and if it's incorrect, you will
hear this. All right, you guys ready to play a
little Monster Dash to wrap up the show.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Good sound effects was recorded while I was trying to
park in the structure this morning.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
I want, all right, let's get it going. Jason.
Speaker 5 (33:53):
You you are the elder here, so you get to
go first. Okay, what about earth Shakers? Earth Shaker a
real truck or a fake one that I've made up?
That's what You've got to determine the names of these trucks.
Are they real trucks that I'm going to see on
Sunday in Fresno or they just made up by yours truly?
Speaker 6 (34:10):
Yeah, that sounds like something you would make up to
sound like a monster truck. I'm gonna go fake earth Shaker.
Speaker 7 (34:16):
Yes, it is a real truck, so that is a
miss for Jason's.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
It's a week name. By the way, we could talk
earth shaker. Oh what about Sam? Over to you all right?
Speaker 7 (34:28):
El Toro Loco, the local bull, El Toro Loco, El
Toro Loco, that's real. That's a crazy bull. By the way, Yes,
that is not the.
Speaker 8 (34:38):
Local I mean, sorry, the crazy bull. That's what I
El Toro Loco. Is it a real truck that I'll
see on Sunday? It got horns and every local bull
My son's favorite.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
He loves El Toro Loco. Jason Stewart. What about wheeling
the sky wheel in the.
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Sky, Wheel in the sky great Jeopardy song, I mean
not Jeopardy but Journey a song.
Speaker 7 (35:01):
Great they go over those big ramps.
Speaker 6 (35:05):
I'm gonna say, no, that sounds made up.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
No, that is correct.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
I didn't make that up based on the Journey song,
all right? Tied up at one a piece. Back over
to Iowa Sam. Eight feet of rubber? What about eight
feet of rubber? Iowa?
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Sam?
Speaker 8 (35:21):
You know they used to call me the local bull
in high school El Toro Loco. We're still on El
Toro Loco. Okay, eight feet of rubber, yes, eight feet
of rubber. I'm gonna say that is real.
Speaker 7 (35:34):
No, I just made up. I have no idea how
big the tires are.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
That's really weird.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
Eight feet of rubber also felt a little risque. I
must say, all right, we're even at one apiece? Back
on serve, Jason Stewart, what about Chevy Chase.
Speaker 6 (35:51):
Chevy Chase.
Speaker 7 (35:53):
That I'm gonna a that is correct? If it was,
it would be a jerk to all other trucks. Nice r.
I like that. Hey, it would just spin its wheels
in its face. It would have bottomed out in the
eighties and early nineties. It would have quits mid race. Jason,
you're up to one.
Speaker 5 (36:11):
Let's see if Iowa Sam can pull even with thunder Asaurus.
Speaker 7 (36:19):
I believe actually, you know what I'm gonna say.
Speaker 8 (36:20):
Okay, thunder Ors thunder roris Okay, Well quickly here, I
know Jonas Knockx's son is a big monster trucks fan.
Speaker 7 (36:30):
I believe Jonas has mentioned that name. It's real? Which
one is real? Which one? Thunder Asaurus thunder Rors was?
Speaker 5 (36:38):
Well, you didn't need that information. You just needed me
correcting myself, because if I would have made it up,
I would have been able to read it correctly.
Speaker 6 (36:44):
Good point.
Speaker 7 (36:44):
All right, we're going down to the wire.
Speaker 5 (36:46):
We got less than a minute Togo on the show,
Jason Stewart Backyard Shed, Backyard Shed. Is that a real truck?
Speaker 6 (36:54):
That's an awful made up name, so it's gotta be real.
I can't believe you would actually make that up.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
No, that was in the picture that Iowa Sam sent
almost a year ago. By the way, you can see
you can see at Dan Byer on Fox for the Win,
Iowa Sam backseat Driver. Is that a real truck or
a fake Monster Truck? I'm gonna say that's real.
Speaker 7 (37:19):
No, it's not.
Speaker 5 (37:21):
We are now at Sudden Death Jurassic Attack. Jason Stewart
reel or fake it's fake. It's definitely a fake. Oh
Sam for the win, Monster Mutt Dalmatian reel.
Speaker 8 (37:36):
You win, You win?
Speaker 7 (37:38):
Stick got to the

I want to hit on that there's also a reason
(00:43):
why Kenneth Walker the Third is the luckiest guy in
the world and there's no reason to feel sorry for
Kenneth Walker the Third that he may not be returning
to the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks, where he just
won a Most Valuable Player award. Kenneth Walker the third

end of the show. But I'd be I feel like
(01:25):
I'm missing out on an opportunity because tag you're at, Jason,
on a scale of one to ten, how well did
that work out from what you had in your mind
to how we executed it about ten minutes ago.
Speaker 6 (01:39):
I think the execution it worked out the way I
think I wanted it. The problem was I got the
sourcing wrong. I should have sourced it better. So having
the clues not be right, that's a that's a flaw
on a game.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Now wait a minute, you're saying that chat GPT might
not be one hundred reliable for sports information.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
And you know where I'm going with this, Jason, and
I'm going to your left, to my right, Iowa, Sam,
is there any any sort of like vindication? Do you
have chicken skin goosebumps knowing that because Jason is on
your case about your use of Google and I mean,
I think Jason, you'd admit it. You kind of got
screwed by the Chat.
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Ai.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Is there any any vindication for you, Iowa, Sam, any
sort of feel.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
With you know, let's just uh, let's go back in
time real quick.
Speaker 8 (02:29):
We were trying to for whatever reason, we were trying
to figure out who was going to be opening up for?
Speaker 7 (02:34):
What was this on the Doug Gottlieb Show. Was that
may have been?
Speaker 8 (02:36):
Yeah, it was a while ago. I think I was
looking up through Google AI, not Chat GPT, but still
AI search engine.
Speaker 7 (02:45):
Yeah, we're in the ballpark.
Speaker 8 (02:46):
We're in the ballpark, and I used Google AI and
I was like, who's opening up for?
Speaker 7 (02:52):
Who's opening up for? Nate Bargatsy?
Speaker 8 (02:53):
And I got like a heavy metal band, and I'm like, okay,
And I should have just I should have like held
that information myself and cross referenced it with other things
on the internet. But I just went ahead and open
mic and I put that out into the world, and
you guys had a field day at my expense. But
now I do feel a little bit vindicated.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
I didn't know if you ever clemmed there, if that's
why you had to take Oh yeah, there's part of
that too, yeah, yes, And it was also I thought
it was like a death metal band.
Speaker 8 (03:17):
That Yeah, it was like a heavy metal you know,
a starter start the comedy show with a heavy death
metal act and then go to the comedy.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Well, if you hear a little more pep and Ia
Sam's step, maybe that's why.
Speaker 7 (03:28):
But I'll tell you what.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
I liked the concept of tag Urtt and congrats to
whoever won. I think it was Ryan Bersching or that
we settled on for at the end, So congrats to
Bursch on that game.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
It is franchise tag day.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
The Arizona Cardinals didn't need to franchise tag Kyler Murray
because he was already under contract.
Speaker 7 (03:44):
They were trying to get rid of that contract and
they did. Isaac.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
Can you read me the quote from Kyler Murray in
speaking on his release from the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I would be glad to he posted to everyone that
supported me and showed kindness to my family and I
during my time in Arizona. From the bottom of the
my heart, thank you. I wanted nothing more than to
be the one to end the seventy seven year dropt
for this organization. I'm sorry I failed us. I wish
this community and my brother is nothing but the best.
I'm no stranger to adversity. I'm prepared for whatever is next.
I trust in God and my work ethic. I truly
(04:15):
believe my best ball is in front of me, and
I look forward to proving it. Godspeed.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
A lot of that is nice, thank yous going all
around appreciating his time. But the part of you wanted
nothing more than ending the seventy seven year championship drought
of the Arizona Cardinals is a lie. That is a
lie that is not true. That's you don't play whatever,
Minecraft for Grand Theft Auto whatever games that he was
so stuck on playing video games. You don't scrub the
(04:42):
Arizona Cardinals immediately from your IG when you're trying to
stronghand them three minutes after you become eligible for a
contract extension. Those words are all nice on paper, but
they're just not true. It's not he did not want
to end. I'm not saying he didn't want to win,
but I'm just saying that it wasn't his main source
of motive. So when you say that you wanted nothing
(05:02):
more than to end a Super Bowl draughtory World Championship
drought for the Cardinals organization, then that is a lie.
That is a lie. But Kyler Murray will find somewhere
else to play, not a shock. I know that Arizona
even talked to teams about possibly trying to trade Kyler Murray,
but ultimately just becomes a free agent and now consign
(05:24):
elsewhere and there will be suitors for Kyler Murray. And honestly,
it's going to become the biggest offseason story that we've
got unless there is a trade of a significant player.
Because of the draft that we have with Fernando Mendoza
going number one, it isn't a huge draft, go crazy
sort of process we're going to have at the end
of April. So Kyler Murray's whereabouts will be the number
(05:44):
one story we follow in this NFL offseason. Kenneth Walker
the Third's whereabouts could be number two because he is
set for free agency after the Seahawks failed to reach
a long term deal with him and did not use
the franchise tag on him. Now they could come up
with a deal, but it seems very likely that Kenneth
Walker is heading to free agency. And there's a reason
(06:06):
why you should not feel bad for Kenneth Walker. Number One,
the Seahawks were not going to pay Kenneth Walker what
he could get on the open market. Just it's not
going to happen, very realistic opportunity. Even heading into the season,
there wasn't the thought that Seattle would bring back Kenneth
Walker on a new deal.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
And when you.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Saw his usage throughout the season, it was split fifty
to fifty with Zach Charbonay. And the reason why you
don't need to feel bad for Kenneth Walker is because
of what happened to Zach Charbonay. Kenneth Walker the third
made himself millions of dollars during the playoff run, Millions
upon millions of dollars that some other NFL team will
pay him. I'm sure Seattle has an opportunity to tell
(06:49):
Kenneth Walker, if you don't like the prices you get,
come back to us and we'll see what we can do.
But I just don't think Seattle's gonna pay Kenneth Walker
what he wants to pay. And I think that there
are thirty one teams in the NFL or at least
one other team of the thirty one that will pay
Kenneth Walker a significant amount for what he did in
the month of January and February. For the Seattle Seahawks.
(07:09):
Winning a Super Bowl MVP does not hurt. Going over
one hundred yards in the Super Bowl in the previous
two games prior to that does not hurt, and Kenneth
Walker the Third would not have those opportunities. If Zach
Charboney was healthy, you would have seen more of the
split that you had throughout the season. And so he
took full advantage of the injury, loaded the Seahawks offense
(07:31):
on his back in the Super Bowl. Was a worthy
candidate of winning Super Bowl MVP and now will be
handsomely rewarded for it. It just may not be in
a Seahawks uniform. I know that could be difficult for
some Seahawks fans to see, but that's the way that
it works. That's the way it was going to be
throughout the season, and because of what transpired, there was
(07:52):
no bigger winner than Kenneth Walker the Third over the
last two months, and so now he can go and
find and strike a new deal likely with the new team.
That's where we are with Kenneth Walker the third. I've
got an issue with Breece Hall. Brice Hall was tagged
by the New York Jets and Isaiac. I don't know
if you have the details exclusive non exclusive tag on
(08:14):
the Jets running back, but it's not about what the
Jets did or didn't do. We knew that they were
going to place some sort of tag on Breece Hall.
It just was a matter of when, before the deadline
that they were going to be able to do something.
The details on the Breece Hall tag are.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
What fourteen million dollar non exclusive tag. This means that
the Jets can match another offer and if he takes
the other offer, they get compensation, unlike the Colts with
the transition tag of Daniel Jones.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
Now Kyler Murray lied in his statement because he didn't
want he wanted. He wanted so much more than just
the Cardinals winning a world championship, which is why the
Cardinals had a problem with him and his study habits
and his preparation. So that was a lie saying he
wanted nothing more than the Cardinals to end their championship
(09:03):
route of seventy seven years. It's nice to stay in
a statement, but it wasn't true. Brice Hall released a statement,
although it was a social media post on x more
than anything, that it may be true, but it absolutely
makes no sense. Brice Hall took to social media upon
news that he was going to be having the franchise
(09:27):
tag placed on him and said this quote. Always been
the type to bet on myself. Been working see y'all soon.
That makes zero sense. I don't understand how getting the
non exclusive franchise tag placed on you. The Jets at
least saying we want you a part of this team
unless somebody gives us a crazy offer that we have
(09:50):
to accept. You will still get paid a significant amount
of money in any scenario. Any scenario, a long term
deal with us, a long term deal from another team
that wants to bring you in that will then give
you draft will give us draft picks, or just the
franchise tag itself. Betting on yourself isn't staying around and
getting paid. Betting on yourself is what Joe Flacco did
(10:14):
about fifteen years ago when he played out the final
year of his contract to the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 7 (10:20):
Didn't give him a long term deal.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
So what you know, what he did went out and
won a Super Bowl, was betting on himself. This makes
no sense. And this is not the first time that
we've had someone in the NFL say something that makes
no sense whatsoever. We bring you one of the more
popular sound bites that we have had in the NFL
over the last ten years that still makes no sense
to this day.
Speaker 9 (10:41):
They wrote me off, I ain't right back though, that's
the problem. I'm right back, Let's go.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
Gino Smith, Jason Stewart, Iowa, Sam Isaac Lohencron. I remember
the game. It was against the Broncos. It was the
return of Russell Wilson. Geno Smith leads the Seahawks to video,
so too victory and in that video, in that piece
of audio, Geno Smith again says, they.
Speaker 9 (11:02):
Wrote me off. I ain't right back though. That's the problem.
I ain't right back, Let's go.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
I don't know what that means to this day, I
have no idea what that means. Sounds good though, it
sounds sounds really good like he didn't write back, But
that's not what writing off means. And so when Brice
Hall says, always been the type to bet on myself.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
You're risking nothing here. Breece.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
Hall's actually in a weird way, in a decent spot
where he's either going to play under the franchise tag
or he's gonna get a long term deal. Betting on yourself,
I guess, would just not be signing anything at all.
And that's truly not betting on yourself. That's actually putting
yourself in a bad situation. But this makes no sense.
But even after all these years, I'm still trying to
figure out what Geno Smith because it's not like they
(11:49):
wrote him a letter saying we don't want you here anymore.
It's the exact opposite, right, they're discarding him. They are
moving off of him. Nobody wanted Geno Smith, except the
Seattle Seahawks, who said, not only do we want you,
we're gonna give you the starting gig or we're gonna
trade Russell Wilson. We're not gonna bring in another quarterback.
We're gonna trade Russell Wilson for a bunch of first
(12:10):
round picks. And we actually believe in you enough that
when you filled in for him last year when he
was hurt, that you can do the job. But then
it leads to, once again the SoundBite that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
Gino swaw me off.
Speaker 9 (12:22):
I ain't right back though, that's the problem.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
I ain't right back. Let's go. I love it.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
It drives me bonkers, but I absolutely love it.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
Jason Stewart Gina like it. Just made up this rule.
He just made up the rule in that moment that
the only way that anyone could ever be written off
is if they write back. So you're not written off
until you have written a letter and gone down to
the post office, put a stamp on it and written back.
(12:51):
Then you're officially written off. Until then, you're just in
this limbook.
Speaker 10 (12:55):
Are we sure?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Are we sure that he did not right back this
season with the I'm just.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Yeah, he penned about an eight page essay. Unfortunately they
say he can't go home again. Look who's making his
bed like that? That would be that's see, I just
made that one up on the spot.
Speaker 9 (13:12):
Bye, right back though, that's the problem.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Alright, right back, let's let's go, let's go, and everybody
ate it up. Everybody was still used to this day.
So I just don't know why Bryce Hall is betting
on himself. When the New York Jets have just said,
all right, you're either gonna get paid a lot of
money by us, or you're gonna get paid a lot
of money by someone else. Joe Flacco bet on himself.
That's that's betting on yourself, not having that that safety net.
(13:37):
Breese Hall has a safety net and so much more.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
Take take like our industry, for example, there's a lot
of podcasters that are betting on themselves, like going independent
or just doing their own thing. That is truly betting
on on yourself. To apply this example to the podcast example,
it's like Joe Smith saying I'm betting on myself while
iHeartMedia has secure hear him for two years for a
(14:01):
two million a year. I'm betting on myself as this
corporation has paid a lot of money to me.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
My podcast has only got a one year deal, but
I'm betting on myself because I could get a huge
deal after that. That's me betting on myself. Breesall back
with the Jets is not a crazy thought. It absolutely
could happen. And if a team wants to pony up,
if maybe they don't want Kenneth Walker, who's the luckiest
man in football, they can maybe try to swing a
deal for Breeshall. But let's be real, Kenneth Walker is
(14:29):
a very very lucky man. Kyler Murray's lying to us,
Breese Hall, you are in a very very good situation.
It is Stu Gotson Company Live here on Fox Sports Radio.

Live Wheak days a three p I'm Eastern twelve pm Pacific.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Jake, We'll get to his last name in just a second.
From John Boy Media is joining us. Thanks to Bamadi
Jones for joining us in hour number one. He is
the host of Talking Baseball with Trevor Ploof Am I
saying that last name correctly, nailed it, nail all right,
and also talking Yanks and I can't wait. Just what
I need? Another Yankee fan on the zoom here. But Jake,
(15:24):
how do you pronounce your last name because I asked
you this before we started. I asked you a question
and you answered the question about your last name with
a question.
Speaker 11 (15:31):
So so, story Lee, I think is where we traditionally
land story Reale.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
See, I don't even know.
Speaker 11 (15:38):
I think I just told you story Alley before we
have on the mics, and then story al comes up.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
That.
Speaker 10 (15:42):
Man, it's one of those things. Just as a little kid.
Speaker 11 (15:46):
You heard all of it, and I don't really care,
and nobody in my family gets that like Italian.
Speaker 10 (15:52):
Tough about it. So I don't know story Ellie.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Sure, yeah, but it's your last name. Listen, Okay, my
last name was Weener. I heard all of it. Okay,
you didn't hear anything. Just how do you prot out
your last night?
Speaker 10 (16:03):
Call me, Jake Wiener. I don't know. I'm good with
I'm good with all of.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
It, all right, Jake Wiener as well? Here Steve Gotson
company Jake.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Before we get to I know, we want to discuss
some baseball, but I'm wondering just more of a macro
thing here with the game. Are you in favor of
someone who loves baseball? Would you want to see a
salary cap installed in major League Baseball.
Speaker 10 (16:26):
So I do not.
Speaker 11 (16:27):
I originally did when when we first got into this,
as you know, we kind of got thrown into the
industry by accident a little bit.
Speaker 10 (16:35):
Because I love the beauty of sports.
Speaker 11 (16:37):
I love you know that the bottom part of baseball
is a problem, and I believe in competition and a
fair playing field. But a salary camp isn't the answer
to that, Like that's other sports have that, and we
see teams that still struggle year in year out with
it that it's how you run your organization. And as
(16:57):
we got close to the players, I guess this is
the part that I don't know if I've been too
blinded by it.
Speaker 10 (17:02):
Players will never accept a salary cap.
Speaker 11 (17:04):
And ever when I saw the Otani contract and the
way players have talked about it, like that's why, so
they they will never and there's not there really isn't
a need to except kind of we just see it
in the other sports and like, oh, that's what they do,
but that doesn't mean it works.
Speaker 10 (17:21):
So no, I am not.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Is there a small part of you that wonders if
it was capped, if the Dodgers would be this good?
Speaker 10 (17:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Right of course, yes.
Speaker 11 (17:31):
Come on, man, it's no you know, I know we're
gonna get into a little bit of recent Yankee nostalgia,
but like the way that people talk about the Dodgers
are kind of the Yankees teams I grew up with that.
I don't send a lot of hate towards the Dodgers there.
They're One advantage that I still don't know how I
feel about is if every good Asian player wants to
(17:53):
sign there instead of somewhere else, that's kind of tough because,
by the way, they won the last WBC Japan, so
that is the one advantage. Otherwise they can do whatever,
like it was called the Coen Techs. The Yankees used
to be that team, so I don't get as bothered
by it as everyone else. And then my jab to
the Dodgers on the way out. If IKF gets a
(18:14):
secondary lead, they don't win the last World Series.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
So nice Jet, well done.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
Well.
Speaker 12 (18:19):
But Jake, you compare it to the Yankees teams that
we grew up watching, and they were the problem, you
know back then, But they were also built on homegrown
players that they then paid. They weren't built on Oh
that's the best player available from that market. I'm going
to sign him because you look at this Dodgers lineup
(18:40):
top to bottom and it's like two guys that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Came up through their system.
Speaker 10 (18:45):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 11 (18:47):
I guess the where they deserve more credit is a
they're ahead of pretty much every organization on every front.
So like they've had prospects, they just trade them like
they traded for Mookie Bets that one didn't end up
hurting them. And then the other thing where they do
deserve credit is, yes, they're spending money, but how many
teams do we talk about them having that one contract
(19:08):
that kills them. The Dodgers don't really have that. Like, yes,
they get a little bit more flexibility around their pitching
where they had a ton of injuries and they could
take a chance on Glass, now they could take a
chance on Snell even though they have an injury history
where other teams don't have to do that. But Matt
Freddie Freeman was a free agent and didn't want to
go there, remember the hole.
Speaker 10 (19:27):
He wanted to stay in Atlanta.
Speaker 11 (19:29):
Like they have where they have spent their money, they've
done really good at it, so they they deserve credit
on all fronts. And yes, it's you know, there's a
lot of teams that wish they could spend half of
what the Dodgers do, So I do get that part
of it. But the Dodgers, no one should be knocking
what they've done like they've They've crushed it.
Speaker 13 (19:49):
Okay, Dodgers clear best team in baseball. They add Kyle
Tucker Edwin Diaz to kind of address the only weaknesses
they had. It feels like this year going into the season,
the gap between like teams two through twelve is razor thin,
and it just kind of comes down to what you prefer.
Who do you think is the second best team in
baseball as we enter this season?
Speaker 11 (20:11):
Man, we just did power rankings because as oh wow,
I'm sure Stu knows like that click has worked throughout
time and it is such a losing exercise, especially right
now with where baseball is at that I honestly and
this wasn't for the click, This wasn't for the view.
Speaker 10 (20:28):
When I was.
Speaker 11 (20:28):
Looking at all the teams, the team I feel the
second most confident about is the Milwaukee Brewers because I
know on the pitching side of the ball, they are
advanced above most other teams and they actually have talented
like MS Rowski's a freak show. Brandon Woodriff when you
actually go through his numbers, who he has been since
the twenty twenties, Like he's the leader, that they have
(20:50):
a great bullpen every year, they catch the ball every
year and between contrarasts between Chario, between Yelich and then
everyone else on their team who runs well, catches the
ball well, and does something else well. Like I know
that they're going to put a good product out there
that I put them second on my power rankings, and
I power rankings. Where it gets tricky is if you
(21:11):
just look at talent on paper. I don't know if
I pick them, but when I look at the uniform
and who.
Speaker 10 (21:16):
They have, I do.
Speaker 12 (21:18):
Who's a team that you're kind of lower on that
a lot of people are are really high on.
Speaker 10 (21:23):
Ooh, this is the fun part. Yeah, right, let's see.
Speaker 11 (21:29):
The team that got the most mad at me was
the New York Metropolitans.
Speaker 10 (21:33):
I had them at eleventh.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Right when you say they got mad at you, Jake,
I'm sorry to cut you off.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Like what happened there?
Speaker 1 (21:39):
You put out the power rankings and someone from the
Mets reach out to you.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
What happened?
Speaker 11 (21:42):
So you will know like we're it's a losing game
and where our social media team couldn't get more excited
when we do power rankings because we're right.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Because they know they know they're mindless and fake and
they mean nothing.
Speaker 10 (21:53):
Right preseason Baseball power rankings.
Speaker 11 (21:57):
You're really you're really in it that the Mets fans
like they arguably had a top three off season, but
they're also okay, if I'm respecting the Brewers jersey, I
still see a little something with the Mets jersey, and
they had an epic collapse last year while also losing
their franchise leader in home runs like the Lindor injury.
(22:20):
Now going into the season, they have a lot of
positions that are open in different ways that like, I
shouldn't be in love with the Mets. I see there's
a lot of talent there, but that was probably the
one that people were the most hot about.
Speaker 10 (22:35):
But that could also just be Mets Yankee stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Taylor and Mike have been annoying me because they're upset
about the vibes around this Yankee team because they are
running back basically the same exact team as they had
last year.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
How do you feel.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
About the vibes of the Yankees, and can you tell
Taylor and Mikey to shut them up?
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah? No, I love you guys. Vibes the Yankees running
the same team.
Speaker 7 (23:01):
I mean, the team is good.
Speaker 11 (23:03):
The team is good. And that's where it's two different
things here. It's the Yankee fans we're told to be
and it's the Yankee fans we are now, like like
we're talking about the Dodgers on a different pantheon, which okay,
that should be strike one right there. And then if
you go through teams two through twelve kind of like
Taylor mentioned, like, they're the same right now, and that's
(23:25):
not what the Yankees are supposed to be.
Speaker 10 (23:27):
So in that way, it's right.
Speaker 11 (23:29):
In another way, they do have some pitching depth and
some you know, they had technically the best lineup last year,
which there's some judge funny business math in there. But
they also have that guy. So let's take the funny
business math. And I just think maybe Baseball's I don't
want to say baseball's problem right now, because there's a
couple of them, but it's two seasons. It's survived the
(23:52):
first half of the season and see how good your
team is, and then the trade deadline, fill your holes.
The Yankees brought in a whole different back end of
the last year, Like you can add at the deadline
now if you're willing to give up actual prospect capital.
Speaker 10 (24:07):
And the Yankees actually do have some.
Speaker 11 (24:08):
Real prospect capital this year, not the Yankees, heype machine
prospect capital.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Which team in Major League Baseball top to bottom has
the best pitching staff?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Is that obvious? Is it the Dodgers?
Speaker 11 (24:18):
Or yeah, the Dodgers aren't an interesting scale. I guess
if it's not.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Should talk about baseball and exclude the Dodgers from the conversation.
Speaker 11 (24:27):
That's kind of what it is, and that's that's insane.
But I would say the two teams that jump out
are Seattle and the Phillies. The Phillies off Zach Wheeler
comes back, and is that Zach Wheeler. Their bullpen on
the back end is actually stronger than it's looked like
in past years with Dron and they Brad Keller, who's
kind of one of those new starters who's transitioning to
(24:48):
the bullpen very well. And Seattle like they're somehow we've
become bored with their starting pitching group, but they're there
and you know, they kind of made their first leap
next year. This is kind of the real test of like,
all right, who are they gonna be?
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, Seattle's just boring, right, Like, we don't care about Seattle.
It's so far removed from all the other states, Like
it's just up there in the Northwest. It's by Canada,
it's close to Vancouver. I mean, the Seahawks won a
Super Bowl and everyone yawned.
Speaker 11 (25:15):
You know, it's an interesting because you know they got
that Pat the twelfth Man, right, No, man, it's bizarre.
I had a weird I'm on my couch last night
and I see the video of Julio Rodriguez coming off
the coming off the team bus for Team dr and
I'm like, okay, so we've got one of the most
handsome fellas on the planet place maybe my favorite position
(25:36):
defensively as well as anyone. And it's like, and okay,
they're catchers, big dumper, Like what what simulation is this that? Yes,
there should be something a little sexier about Seattle.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Right, except you feel like you need a passport when
you travel there.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
I mean it's a different place, yes, you tell it.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Put that on the poll. Do you need a passport
when you travel to Seattle.
Speaker 13 (25:56):
God, Jake, it feels like me and mikey a align
on those things. When it comes to Yankees. One of
the things recently that we kind of had a disagreement on.
I don't think CC Sabbathia is Jersey retirement great when
it comes to the Yankees, and I'm curious where you
kind of fall there.
Speaker 11 (26:14):
It's CC listening, No, I man, I don't know I
what CC Sabathia represented for the Yankees coming over from
H nine winning that World Series, who he was as
a leader, and I guess where he is in baseball history.
The thing that we've referenced on talking Yanks, because you know, CC,
(26:34):
when you look at the career stats and all pitchers
are in this place right now, that the Hall of
Fame is gonna have to kind of change how they
look at starting pitchers. CEC is the third lefty ever
to strike out three thousand hitters, And when you think
about that, you're like, ok, I think Carlton and Randy Johnson.
Speaker 10 (26:51):
So like, I don't know who C. C. Sabathia is
in the game.
Speaker 11 (26:56):
I get that there's a Yankee side to that argument
that you know, if you started ranking each Yankee by
uniform number. CEC's probably towards the bottom third there. There's
a couple others behind CEC. That it is what it
is that like, I don't know, I'm I'm not out
here to knock who Reggie Jackson was because I didn't
feel like who he was in that moment. Sec Heed's
(27:16):
larger than life. He represents New York. Well, he's still
around the team. That it's I don't know, I'm not
punching pillows at home, Like.
Speaker 10 (27:23):
Can you believe this? Like and it's a fine number
to retire like that?
Speaker 2 (27:28):
When do you punch pillows at home?
Speaker 7 (27:29):
What makes you like we're talking?
Speaker 11 (27:31):
Yeah, uh god, that's uh no, I'm not going there,
not going But.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
How many of those strikeouts came as a Yankee? You know?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
It's like, yeah, you hang around the team, doesn't mean
you get your jersey retired.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
I mean it's the Yankees, man.
Speaker 11 (27:47):
I know, I know, And maybe maybe I'm part of
the problem now that I this is where Yankees have
let each little half inch slip that we've gotten to
this point.
Speaker 10 (27:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (27:58):
Of all my qualms of the Yankees are organization, uh
in doctoring CC more into the family.
Speaker 10 (28:04):
I'm I have no qualms with that, Stu.
Speaker 13 (28:06):
As a Yankee fan, it feels sacrilegious. When I'm walking around,
I'm like, hey, maybe we didn't need to retire Paul
Neil's number.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Yeah, well yeah, it's act religious. I think he might
be more deserving.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
But if I'm sitting there and I'm rattling off Yankee
greats in terms of pictures, it's gonna take me a
while before I get to C. C.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Sabbathia, you know.
Speaker 10 (28:27):
Ah, So that's where I get caught up.
Speaker 11 (28:30):
And now, if we're really doing this like the Yankees,
pitching lifetime is a lot slimmer than the hitting that
I think CC might crack that rotation.
Speaker 10 (28:38):
Are you a Whitey Ford guy?
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I am a white I just it's so funny.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
I just wrote down Whitey Ford on a piece of
I didn't finish it.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I wrote fo R. But that just reminds me that
it's Ford.
Speaker 11 (28:48):
I've got other illusions for it. No, man, this is
where I don't have the historian side yet. I think
that's gonna be like my upcoming midlife crisis where I
deep dive into all of the Yankee stats and I can,
but like, I don't know. I heard I heard Kellerman
and Simmons the other day debating if Gidrey's number should
be retired, and I don't know.
Speaker 10 (29:08):
I see him show up. He's got a sick nickname.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Some of the numbers are Louisiana Lightning.
Speaker 11 (29:12):
I mean, yeah, comparing Guidriy and Sabathia, I can't. I
can't have that conversation currently.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Here's the way I like to do these things, Jake.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
If I were to ask you, okay, one game scenario,
start for your life, Okay, Ceec, Sabbathi or David Combe?
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Who you take it?
Speaker 10 (29:30):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (29:32):
You taking? Come?
Speaker 10 (29:35):
I don't? I mean what age am I getting them at?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Like prime? You're getting prime of both? Okay?
Speaker 10 (29:41):
Did the Yankees have prime? Cone?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Because a lot of follow ups here, I mean, just
one picture. Choose what jesus? I mean, what was your question?
What was the second question?
Speaker 10 (29:49):
Did their prime on the Yankees?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Are there there?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
CEC's prime on the Yankees? David Cone's prime on the Yankees?
Speaker 11 (29:57):
I think I would go see ce just that when
he initially came over, he comes off that like Milwaukee Run.
Speaker 10 (30:04):
Where do you remember he took the ball every third.
Speaker 11 (30:07):
Day for the Brewers, just to do it like that's
He's one of the last dying breeds to ever do that.
And I feel like Coney when he came to the Yankees.
He was David Cohne, but he was a little older
David Cone. That that's all I'm going off.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I think older David Cone was better. It was cagey.
I mean he was I like, hey, I've.
Speaker 10 (30:23):
Got no again, Like this is the beauty.
Speaker 11 (30:26):
We could do this at the end of a bar
all day and there's right or wrong and that's Hey,
that's the beauty of it, all.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Right, Jake, Jake st Rally John Boy Media, he does
talking baseball with Trevor Ploof.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
I love that day and also talking Yanks as well. Man.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Opening Day cannot come soon enough for you, Jake. I
am concerned about you. You need games to watch. Stop
power ranking things that don't.
Speaker 7 (30:48):
Matter a right.

Speaker 7 (31:49):
Ally. Stu's even got me confused on Jake's last name.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Now, if you've heard me on Fox Sports Radio before,
I don't usually get too personal, but it may have
been brought up time and again that I do have
a four year old son. So I say this to you,
Jason and Sam and Isaac, who has a couple of kids.
There are things, and Jason's got a grown adult son,
so he understands this as well. There are things in
life that I never thought that I would know or
(32:14):
be exposed to because of your kid's interest. I don't
know what I thought that my kid would just love
football and basketball and golf and baseball and it would
just be all sports all the time. Well, he's big
in the dinosaurs, and he's also big into monster trucks,
and so now I see why monster trucks are such
a thing with young kids. A couple of weeks ago,
now we're based in southern California, we were supposed to
(32:36):
go to a monster truck show in Anaheim. My wife
then found out that it was outdoors, it was gonna
be at night, it was gonna be cooler. She didn't
want our son there. Okay, so guess what. We found
another show in Fresno this weekend. So on Sunday, we're
taking my four year old indoors, which will be even
worse for his ears. Don't worry, we'll have the headsets
(32:58):
on taking him to a monster truck.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
So now.
Speaker 5 (33:04):
You hear it, It's my opportunity because now I am
well versed on what a monster truck is in terms
of the names and who is performing. We're gonna play
a little Monster Dash and we're gonna heat up the rivalry.
As Iowa, Sam, you will be competing against Jason Stewart.
So your chat gbt AI rivalry now transitions over to
(33:27):
Monster Dash. Isaac Glohenkron is the judge. He will tell
you if you are correct. If your answer is correct,
you will hear this, and if it's incorrect, you will
hear this. All right, you guys ready to play a
little Monster Dash to wrap up the show.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Good sound effects was recorded while I was trying to
park in the structure this morning.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
I want, all right, let's get it going. Jason.
Speaker 5 (33:53):
You you are the elder here, so you get to
go first. Okay, what about earth Shakers? Earth Shaker a
real truck or a fake one that I've made up?
That's what You've got to determine the names of these trucks.
Are they real trucks that I'm going to see on
Sunday in Fresno or they just made up by yours truly?
Speaker 6 (34:10):
Yeah, that sounds like something you would make up to
sound like a monster truck. I'm gonna go fake earth Shaker.
Speaker 7 (34:16):
Yes, it is a real truck, so that is a
miss for Jason's.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
It's a week name. By the way, we could talk
earth shaker. Oh what about Sam? Over to you all right?
Speaker 7 (34:28):
El Toro Loco, the local bull, El Toro Loco, El
Toro Loco, that's real. That's a crazy bull. By the way, Yes,
that is not the.
Speaker 8 (34:38):
Local I mean, sorry, the crazy bull. That's what I
El Toro Loco. Is it a real truck that I'll
see on Sunday? It got horns and every local bull
My son's favorite.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
He loves El Toro Loco. Jason Stewart. What about wheeling
the sky wheel in the.
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Sky, Wheel in the sky great Jeopardy song, I mean
not Jeopardy but Journey a song.
Speaker 7 (35:01):
Great they go over those big ramps.
Speaker 6 (35:05):
I'm gonna say, no, that sounds made up.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
No, that is correct.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
I didn't make that up based on the Journey song,
all right? Tied up at one a piece. Back over
to Iowa Sam. Eight feet of rubber? What about eight
feet of rubber? Iowa?
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Sam?
Speaker 8 (35:21):
You know they used to call me the local bull
in high school El Toro Loco. We're still on El
Toro Loco. Okay, eight feet of rubber, yes, eight feet
of rubber. I'm gonna say that is real.
Speaker 7 (35:34):
No, I just made up. I have no idea how
big the tires are.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
That's really weird.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
Eight feet of rubber also felt a little risque. I
must say, all right, we're even at one apiece? Back
on serve, Jason Stewart, what about Chevy Chase.
Speaker 6 (35:51):
Chevy Chase.
Speaker 7 (35:53):
That I'm gonna a that is correct? If it was,
it would be a jerk to all other trucks. Nice r.
I like that. Hey, it would just spin its wheels
in its face. It would have bottomed out in the
eighties and early nineties. It would have quits mid race. Jason,
you're up to one.
Speaker 5 (36:11):
Let's see if Iowa Sam can pull even with thunder Asaurus.
Speaker 7 (36:19):
I believe actually, you know what I'm gonna say.
Speaker 8 (36:20):
Okay, thunder Ors thunder roris Okay, Well quickly here, I
know Jonas Knockx's son is a big monster trucks fan.
Speaker 7 (36:30):
I believe Jonas has mentioned that name. It's real? Which
one is real? Which one? Thunder Asaurus thunder Rors was?
Speaker 5 (36:38):
Well, you didn't need that information. You just needed me
correcting myself, because if I would have made it up,
I would have been able to read it correctly.
Speaker 6 (36:44):
Good point.
Speaker 7 (36:44):
All right, we're going down to the wire.
Speaker 5 (36:46):
We got less than a minute Togo on the show,
Jason Stewart Backyard Shed, Backyard Shed. Is that a real truck?
Speaker 6 (36:54):
That's an awful made up name, so it's gotta be real.
I can't believe you would actually make that up.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
No, that was in the picture that Iowa Sam sent
almost a year ago. By the way, you can see
you can see at Dan Byer on Fox for the Win,
Iowa Sam backseat Driver. Is that a real truck or
a fake Monster Truck? I'm gonna say that's real.
Speaker 7 (37:19):
No, it's not.
Speaker 5 (37:21):
We are now at Sudden Death Jurassic Attack. Jason Stewart
reel or fake it's fake. It's definitely a fake. Oh
Sam for the win, Monster Mutt Dalmatian reel.
Speaker 8 (37:36):
