Mets to start stressing out about one Soto's.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Fit in Queens.

Hour of the Ben Malor Show.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
B and we are back at it again.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
If there's one thing that I love having the platform
here to a yap all night my therapy.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I don't pay for a therapist.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I come in here and just complain about things that
I see, and it's a lot of fun. So I
enjoy the falling apart of ready made stories. Let me
explain what I mean by that. Our leads from baseball
and I recall the moment that one Soto decided to
(02:44):
sign for the Mets with the Mets, and I have
a lot of people in my circles that are New
York met Fans.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
There's many reasons for that.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Every sports radio job I've ever had, there's always been
at least a one Mets fan, one Jets fan everywhere
like that.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's a that's a guarantee every sports tark radio station.
I don't care if you're.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
In a small town or a big city or a
medium sized market, there's always some Jet fan and some
some some Mets fan.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I mean, it's everywhere.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
But I heard that, the joy, the unmitigated excitement. I
just couldn't be more pleased that Juan Soto has signed
with the Mets. So here we are a couple months
into the baseball season and o MG.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Have you been keeping track? Now?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
The Mets lost on a random Monday at Finway. And
that's not the story. That's not don't bear the lead,
mo Man, that is not the story at all. Who
cares a random baseball game? It doesn't matter. So we
all know the backstory. The Mets signed Juan Soto for
seven hundred and sixty five million.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
This was the.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Forever, this was the dream for the Mets owner there
the fanboy who bought the Mets so they get the
big contract.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
And less than two full months into the.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Twenty twenty five baseball season, there is already concern in
the Mets organization. One Soto has already been called out
by the manager for being a dog and not hustling
our He's a dog and not a good kind of dog. Yeah,
(04:28):
the Mets manager publicly calling out One Soto. The franchise player,
Carlos Mendoza. You probably even know who that was. He's
the manager of the Mets. The lack of effort by
one Soto on the base base bath. He said that
he would discuss the lack of hustle with Je Soda.
(04:51):
This's after a game against the Yankees. So you've got that.
You've got the franchise saying that they're concerned with his
performance on the field. The Mets said to be upset
with his lack of enthusiasm. That Juan Soto is just
not engaged with the Mets. So let us discuss. You've
(05:15):
got the manager saying the guy's not hustling. He's not
publicly publicly saying that. So question thumbs up or thumbs down?
Thumbs up, thumbs down. Is it time for the Mets
to start stressing out about Juan Soto's fit in Queens.
(05:38):
So I'm going two thumbs up on this. I'm going
not one, two thumbs up on this. I've got nonverbal jugs,
not that, and crafts hinds all right, craft times. So
we'll combine all of these things together and we'll do
the hustle, is what we're going to do. We'll do
the hustle, all right. Juan Soto, he doesn't do the hustle,
will do the hustle. So, first of all, as I mentioned,
(06:01):
I'm going thumbs up on this, and it's really simple.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I know from my years when I was around baseball
a lot back before the Dodgers got Shohil Tani, I.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Was banned a bit pretty much.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
But back when I used to go out there all
the time that for a manager to publicly call out
a player, that player has to be the king of
lazy for weeks, if not a month before the player
is gonnaet called out. And a player like one Soto,
(06:33):
forget about it, right for you to go public and
put that guy on blast for being a dog all
right and not hustling and I'm a lingerer for you
to do that. This has to you had you've gone
to the player. What usually happens. The protocol is you
go to the player and you talk to them privately.
If that doesn't work, you go to somebody else on
(06:53):
the team. You try to have people on the team
talk to the player. If that doesn't work, the final straw,
you go public.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
That is not the first move. D do that right away.
You do that as the last move.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
So one, Sodo, you put that in there, and then
you have you got the manager calling them out. You've
got the team saying they're concerned. There's a lack of
enthusiasm there. He got the riches of Solomon from the
Mets seven hundred.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And sixty five million dollars.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
You're supposed to be mister happy, mister goodwill ambassador with
the Mets.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
It's not like the Mets have a bad record. They don't.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I have played well recently, but they have a good
overall record.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
And we're only a couple months into the baseball season.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
And I watched that Mets game with the Red Sox,
and I've watched Sodo play several.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Games this year. I don't know how many.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
I haven't counted them as a degenerate gambler. I've watched
and one Soto. The word for Juan Soto is blah,
not blah blah blah. The word is blah for Juan Soto.
And what is my evidence, my evidens is the science
nonverbal communication. It's kinesik, right, Kinesi that is the non
(08:09):
verbal communication. And one Soto has shown these subtle some
of them not so, but a lot of them are
subtle body language cues that, as we like to say
in these parts, dead dive what they are dead?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Give what?
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Lack of engagement? Check right, just not engaged, slumped over
posture check that's been out there. He's played mechanically with
no real excitement to his game. The Mets have admitted
publicly he's lazy, that Juan Soto does not believe in hustling.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Soto's denied that. By the way.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Now, he was mister happy in the Bronx over the weekend,
and that raised some eyebrows with the Mets. We are told,
boots on the ground tell us the only time Sodo
has seemed happy as a Met is when he was
playing grab ass with Aaron Judge and Aaron Boone during
batting practice. That is a red flag. Flag is up,
(09:12):
that is a red flag. So he's been a Met.
Spring training started mid February, so February, part of February, March, April,
we're into May. And those that are there say the
only time he's seen genuinely happy Juan Soto is when
he's been playing foot see with Aaron Judge and you know,
(09:33):
playing rock scissors paper with Aaron Bone.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
What do I know, I just do the overnight. I
don't think that's good. I don't know. Maybe it is,
Maybe you're fine with that. Yikes. Now there's also an issue.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
The Mets were upset because Juan Soto had agreed to
be miked up again. He's the ambassador of the Mets,
He's mister Met and so that Sunday night game they
were gonna mic up Juan Soto in the Bronx and
then at the very last minute he said, psych, I
ain't doing it, losers, And he said, I'm not doing it.
So they had to scramble and find someone else, and
(10:09):
so the last I think they put Nimo on there.
If I remember I was watching the game, I usually
have the audio down because the announcers annoyed me. Not
as much as Doris Burke, but the announcers. So anyway,
now listen, you can choose to ignore I'm sure e
Dogg and Joe Dogg.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Are ignoring these things. You can choose to ignore this
if you want. The signs are there.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Maybe you don't see the sign I see the signs right,
They're right in front of your schnaws.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Right there, right, they're right there.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
And it doesn't help, by the way, that Juan Soto
is on pace for twenty seven home runs and sixty
eight runs batted in, which are the kind of numbers
Jack Peterson used to put up as Ed and Arlington
can put you. Essayisly Jack Peterson production not this year
because he's having him terrible year for the Rangers pedestrian
(11:01):
numbers pedestrian numbers. So hey, it's good. Soto's not hustling,
he's not playing well, he's not happy. But other than that,
everything's great. Nothing to see here, move on, nothing to
see all right? Now, speaking of movie on, we go
to big Tech.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Big Tech. We turned the page. It has been assumed.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
You know what happens when you assume it has been
assumed that Major League Baseball is in its final.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Days of having umpires call balls and strikes.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
This is the final opportunity if you enjoy umpires actually
deciding what's a strike and what's a ball.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
This is it now.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Not everyone is going down quietly. There is a stink
that has been raised. Corbin Burns, mister Burns of the Diamondbacks,
has underlined the concerns about what's called the Automated Ball
Strike System ABS. Burns pointing out that the margin of error,
(12:01):
the margin of error that many people have just kind
of overlooked here, that players have overlooked. It was revealed
during spring training testing that took place in the Cactus League,
in the Great Brute League, and there are slight inaccuracies
in the ABS system up to half an inch. Now,
(12:22):
I was told years ago that every inch matters, so
up to half an inch, okay, And that has led
to some debate here that how reliable is this?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Is this really the way to go?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
You know?
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Of course, the people that are selling the program are like, oh,
this is great, man, your life is going to be
so much better with this robot automated strike zone.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
It's the way to go.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
And it's much more reliable compared to you evil humans.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
You evil humans. All right, So how do you vote?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
How do you vote on the automated ball strike plan
for Major League Baseball and these concerns that are popping
up right now. So I have an unpopular opinion on this.
I have an unpopular opinion. I vote for humans.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
You shouldn't do that. Vo would you vote for humans? Oh?
They get it wrong. I actually like the human factor.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I know you're just a boomer man, You're old dude. Okay,
I will laugh at you when you lose your job
to a robot. I will point my finger and go, hah,
you lose their ha.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Just in general.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Sorry, not sorry on this replay. I've learned this over
these now. When replay started, I was like, oh.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
This is great, man, this is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
But the more replay they've added and they've messed with
the game and all of our sports, it's all we
must get it right. You have to get it right.
And I've learned as I've grown as watching sports over
the use that it's not the silver bullet, it's not
the cure all, it's not the wand that so many
(14:01):
of you dopes think it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Is, it's not.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And again I go back to the word manipulation, right,
and with replay, I remember when replay startup, people like, Wow,
it's gonna end fights and arguments.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
No, there's there's still arguments. There's still debates and all
that stuff. But it does allow manipulation. Well, how could
it allow manipulation?
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Come on, because an automated strike zone somewhere along the
way is set up by Big Baseball, right, somewhat at
Baseball is gonna set it up.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
And what is their agenda?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Is that half an inch margin of air gonna help
certain teams more than other teams?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Oh, that would never do that.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yeah, because people in sports are always on the up
and up, like the cheating astros.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Right, deacon, right, you know who you are.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
So for those of you that are on the side
of the robots, on the robots side of the aisle,
how far do you want to go? Cause I was
thinking about it, like if you you are really like, hey, listen,
we don't want calls to be wrong, and I want
the ABS system. So I think the next logical step
is you probably do not want pitchers to get hurt.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
You know, many pitchers have.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Shredded their elbows the Tommy John surgery. They've got shoulder
problems because of pitching. And I know for a fact
that we can solve that problem with technology. Why not
just get rid of the pitchers and we'll bring in
the jugs pitching gun, the pitching machines from drugs, and
(15:37):
we'll have the manager play with the buttons on the machine,
will have it automated, well not really automat but there's
like a joystick, and make it like a video game.
And the manager can pick which pitch they want to
use for the jugs machine and no pictures will ever
get hurt, and they can.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Pitch the same machine.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
You can have a different, you know, a couple different machines,
and I guess you don't need the bullpen anymore. You
can sell seats, get rid of the bullpen and all that.
I think that's a great way to go, right, And
I know how cheap people in business are from working
in my business and being around other people, that if
baseball could convince you idiots that it's we'll just have
(16:17):
the judgment, will have the jugs machine out there that
will make it like a video simulation.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
And if you would watch it.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
They would be in it, just like the NFL would
like to do flag football, and then they'd eventually get
rid of the players NASCAR. I know for a fact
they'd love just robotic cars and they don't have to
worry about anyone getting hurt in any of that. All right, now,
save a couple bucks, all right, final point, quick guy.
A developing controversy in college football.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
For years, USC.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
And Notre Dame have been one of the signature games
right around Thanksgiving time college football fall, weather in the
air everywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
The rivalry ATE's back over one hundred years.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
It was in nineteen twenty four they started playing, and
this year.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Could be it. What.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Yeah, there's an expiring contract and USC not Notre Dame.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
USC is offering a one year extension.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And the chatter which is out there is that when
Notre Dame wants a long term.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Deals, he's like, we only want to do one more year.
Why is that? There's tension?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
USC is said to be concerned about scheduling and the
college football playoff format as well. Their reluctance is being driven,
we are told by the Lincoln Riley and the fact
that SC is now in the Big ten and so
they have to travel to the Midwest and the Big
Tens of National Conference, there's teams in New Jersey and Maryland,
(17:55):
so they have to make the trip and all that.
And so they were complaining about the travel demands and
it's going to Indiana is another trip to the Midwest
and all that stuff. So, Lincoln Riley, this is unreal.
It's another one of those stories. I thought was sat tire.
I'm not gonna lie. I thought it was fake. So
Lincoln Riley prioritizing the playoff in college football and travel
over tradition. So what does this move Again, it's just
(18:20):
speculation this point, But what does this move by Lincoln
Riley to end the Notre Dame rivalry signal to you?
So to me, it's obvious that you decommission Lincoln Riley.
You fire Lincoln Riley, like, what are you doing? Seriously?
That is a cowardly act by Lincoln Riley. USC in
(18:41):
the Big Ten has been a craft Heinz product. They
have been cool whip under Lincoln Riley. They are soft
and creamy. That is what they are. And you're grumbling
about travel demands. Tell me you're soft without telling me
you soft? A Number one and Notre Dame is a
national platform game. That is the kind of a game
(19:05):
you go to a school to play in. And you're
going to get rid of that because you're worried about travel.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
As long as you have Wi Fi on the plane, okay,
as long as you have Wi Fi in the plane,
the players will sit in said plane and be on
their phones and their tablets. And it's like that's what
they'd be doing anyway if they weren't in the plane.
So as long as the WiFi is working on a plane,
the travel's no issue. Okay, the travels no issue. And
(19:33):
the whole playoff thing is comical when you think about
how chicken fertilizer like SC football has been. And they
couldn't beat Maryland and they couldn't beat the Golden Golphers
of Minnesota, and they're talking about a playoff playoffs. As
Jim Morey said, he used to work here. Come on,
what are you doing in Lincoln, right? I mean, you've
(19:55):
produced soft football teams?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Now even get an end the Notre Dame rival all right?
Speaker 2 (20:01):

Speaker 1 (24:13):

Speaker 2 (24:16):
All right, Lorrey? Do you have an answer to the
Mallard Riddle of the day? Seventy six years Rookie Jared
McCain recently launched his own line of blank lingerie ben lingerie?
All right, Well that's not right, but you're not far off, Lorena.
It's something that often goes with lingerie that many women
like to wear with their lingerie. That would be nail polish.
(24:40):
His own line of nail polish.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Hey, listen, that's you. If that's your thing. In good
for you.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Reminds me that famous line, the marketing line from the
cigarettes Virginia's Slims back in the day.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I think it was it was You've come a long
way baby.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
That was the line, right, the marketing slogan. Well, this
is also you've come a long way. Right. There was
a time that if you were a professional athlete, and you,
as a male professional athlete, announced that you were going
to hawk nail polish, that was not going to happen.
Here we are, and there's like a bunch of quarterbacks.
(25:28):
Caleb Williams, he's probably gonna be the number one customer there,
the Bears quarterback. He loves that. And there are there
are other quarters back there. You go make make a
killing on that. Is there a big market for men
to buy nail polish? Maybe there is, no, No, there's
not a lot of men out there, Loraina. When you
come across a man that's got nice nail polish, just
that to kind of get you a little excited there,
because I look at that.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Guy's got nailed When I see that, I just assume
he doesn't play for my team. Ben he's on the
other side.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
All right, that's an honest analysis right there. I asked

Speaker 1 (26:56):
Yeah, let's go to jeedhu Fled.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I do need some contemptence for Malor's a mount of

Speaker 1 (27:02):
You want to hear what he said.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
You'll have to listen to the podcast, hour three of
the pod. Hello, Jed who Fled?
Speaker 5 (27:10):
You want to get yourself down? I was going to
drop nineteen ninety f and seven, but I just couldn't.
I don't have the I don't have the testicles that
I had. That was impressive. That was very very impressive.
It does sound me great, dude. That's why I called him.
Then I just got a question. You don't have to
you don't have to tally after on the spot. I
heard you say something about Charlie the other night, and
he had called in and both Charlie's and then hung
up before you could go to him. From Vesquez, I'll
(27:32):
ty who spends the most time on hold to not
get on the air if you had to just do
it right after, I have myself. You you you.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
What you do is you often you'll be on hold
and you'll be next, and then you'll hang up, and
so then you go to the back of the line
if you if you on hoy, so that's your move
is you're on hold a lot, but you usually hang
up and sending you go to the bottom. Blind Scott
is on hold the entire show. Like right now, Blind
Scott is still on hold, and I can't get rid
(28:03):
of me.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Blind Scott's he's the opposite of thirty eight special Dude.
He's there, he's their worst nightmare. He's holding on too tightly,
he won't let go. But if you go to the
Reddit page, man and you'll see that it's definitely not
blind Scott. But this this transgender Sabrina person. They've got
a thousand posts, and they high foot blind Scott every post.
I'm sure that they're not blind Scott.

No, no, somebody else. It's is obviously a different person.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (28:25):

a subreddit page which is not the original reddit.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
What do we do?
Speaker 5 (28:33):
What do we do in situations where transgender people are dead?
Named themselves?
Speaker 1 (28:38):

Speaker 4 (30:06):
I just want to let you know your monologue about
your baseball with the manager using.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
The pitching machine. You got to get that to happen.
That would be amazing.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Oh, it would be wonderful and no one will ever
get hurt.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
You don't have to worry about signing pictures, the big contracts,
and you have.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Those cheating assts rigging the machine to be two and
a mile mile fastball.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Yeah, that's that is a that is a concern. I'm
not gonna disagree with you. That would be a concerned.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
But the other thing too would be if you bring
the pitching machine in and uh and that element of it,
you can then interview the person that makes the pitching machine.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Right, You're gonna have the different people that make them
on and.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
You can you know, they could break it down, you know,
like the backstory the play by play guy.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Well, this pitching machine came from a factory in Ohio.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Uh, but they it's going against a pitching machine that
was made in a factory in California.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
So we'll see you who makes a better pitching machine?
Amazing from child?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Oh yeah, well I don't know. Well, but I guess
they got rid of the tariffs. I don't know what's
going on with that, but yes, nothing.

there are drugs on the mound. Yeah, Chipping the Q's right,
since says a plus on the mall of monologue one,
Soda is obviously doing his Robinson Cano, don't you know impersonation?
Speaker 1 (31:54):
He got paid and now he's no longer busting his hump.
Speaker 2 (31:59):

and the Mets got played. He reminds me of former
Tennessee Titan slacker fat Albert Hainsworth.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
We are in the air everywhere, cheek to cheek as
we spell all.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Night long, different various words.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
We do a lot of spelling overnight, coast to coast,
border the border in beyond on the mast and utopianly
powerful microphones of fs are am modinating live from the

Way Tire Buying Show.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
B and we are back at it again.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
If there's one thing that I love having the platform
here to a yap all night my therapy.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I don't pay for a therapist.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I come in here and just complain about things that
I see, and it's a lot of fun. So I
enjoy the falling apart of ready made stories. Let me
explain what I mean by that. Our leads from baseball
and I recall the moment that one Soto decided to
(02:44):
sign for the Mets with the Mets, and I have
a lot of people in my circles that are New
York met Fans.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
There's many reasons for that.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Every sports radio job I've ever had, there's always been
at least a one Mets fan, one Jets fan everywhere
like that.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's a that's a guarantee every sports tark radio station.
I don't care if you're.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
In a small town or a big city or a
medium sized market, there's always some Jet fan and some
some some Mets fan.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I mean, it's everywhere.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
But I heard that, the joy, the unmitigated excitement. I
just couldn't be more pleased that Juan Soto has signed
with the Mets. So here we are a couple months
into the baseball season and o MG.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Have you been keeping track? Now?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
The Mets lost on a random Monday at Finway. And
that's not the story. That's not don't bear the lead,
mo Man, that is not the story at all. Who
cares a random baseball game? It doesn't matter. So we
all know the backstory. The Mets signed Juan Soto for
seven hundred and sixty five million.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
This was the.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Forever, this was the dream for the Mets owner there
the fanboy who bought the Mets so they get the
big contract.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
And less than two full months into the.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Twenty twenty five baseball season, there is already concern in
the Mets organization. One Soto has already been called out
by the manager for being a dog and not hustling
our He's a dog and not a good kind of dog. Yeah,
(04:28):
the Mets manager publicly calling out One Soto. The franchise player,
Carlos Mendoza. You probably even know who that was. He's
the manager of the Mets. The lack of effort by
one Soto on the base base bath. He said that
he would discuss the lack of hustle with Je Soda.
(04:51):
This's after a game against the Yankees. So you've got that.
You've got the franchise saying that they're concerned with his
performance on the field. The Mets said to be upset
with his lack of enthusiasm. That Juan Soto is just
not engaged with the Mets. So let us discuss. You've
(05:15):
got the manager saying the guy's not hustling. He's not
publicly publicly saying that. So question thumbs up or thumbs down?
Thumbs up, thumbs down. Is it time for the Mets
to start stressing out about Juan Soto's fit in Queens.
(05:38):
So I'm going two thumbs up on this. I'm going
not one, two thumbs up on this. I've got nonverbal jugs,
not that, and crafts hinds all right, craft times. So
we'll combine all of these things together and we'll do
the hustle, is what we're going to do. We'll do
the hustle, all right. Juan Soto, he doesn't do the hustle,
will do the hustle. So, first of all, as I mentioned,
(06:01):
I'm going thumbs up on this, and it's really simple.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I know from my years when I was around baseball
a lot back before the Dodgers got Shohil Tani, I.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Was banned a bit pretty much.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
But back when I used to go out there all
the time that for a manager to publicly call out
a player, that player has to be the king of
lazy for weeks, if not a month before the player
is gonnaet called out. And a player like one Soto,
(06:33):
forget about it, right for you to go public and
put that guy on blast for being a dog all
right and not hustling and I'm a lingerer for you
to do that. This has to you had you've gone
to the player. What usually happens. The protocol is you
go to the player and you talk to them privately.
If that doesn't work, you go to somebody else on
(06:53):
the team. You try to have people on the team
talk to the player. If that doesn't work, the final straw,
you go public.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
That is not the first move. D do that right away.
You do that as the last move.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
So one, Sodo, you put that in there, and then
you have you got the manager calling them out. You've
got the team saying they're concerned. There's a lack of
enthusiasm there. He got the riches of Solomon from the
Mets seven hundred.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And sixty five million dollars.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
You're supposed to be mister happy, mister goodwill ambassador with
the Mets.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
It's not like the Mets have a bad record. They don't.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I have played well recently, but they have a good
overall record.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
And we're only a couple months into the baseball season.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
And I watched that Mets game with the Red Sox,
and I've watched Sodo play several.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Games this year. I don't know how many.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
I haven't counted them as a degenerate gambler. I've watched
and one Soto. The word for Juan Soto is blah,
not blah blah blah. The word is blah for Juan Soto.
And what is my evidence, my evidens is the science
nonverbal communication. It's kinesik, right, Kinesi that is the non
(08:09):
verbal communication. And one Soto has shown these subtle some
of them not so, but a lot of them are
subtle body language cues that, as we like to say
in these parts, dead dive what they are dead?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Give what?
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Lack of engagement? Check right, just not engaged, slumped over
posture check that's been out there. He's played mechanically with
no real excitement to his game. The Mets have admitted
publicly he's lazy, that Juan Soto does not believe in hustling.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Soto's denied that. By the way.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Now, he was mister happy in the Bronx over the weekend,
and that raised some eyebrows with the Mets. We are told,
boots on the ground tell us the only time Sodo
has seemed happy as a Met is when he was
playing grab ass with Aaron Judge and Aaron Boone during
batting practice. That is a red flag. Flag is up,
(09:12):
that is a red flag. So he's been a Met.
Spring training started mid February, so February, part of February, March, April,
we're into May. And those that are there say the
only time he's seen genuinely happy Juan Soto is when
he's been playing foot see with Aaron Judge and you know,
(09:33):
playing rock scissors paper with Aaron Bone.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
What do I know, I just do the overnight. I
don't think that's good. I don't know. Maybe it is,
Maybe you're fine with that. Yikes. Now there's also an issue.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
The Mets were upset because Juan Soto had agreed to
be miked up again. He's the ambassador of the Mets,
He's mister Met and so that Sunday night game they
were gonna mic up Juan Soto in the Bronx and
then at the very last minute he said, psych, I
ain't doing it, losers, And he said, I'm not doing it.
So they had to scramble and find someone else, and
(10:09):
so the last I think they put Nimo on there.
If I remember I was watching the game, I usually
have the audio down because the announcers annoyed me. Not
as much as Doris Burke, but the announcers. So anyway,
now listen, you can choose to ignore I'm sure e
Dogg and Joe Dogg.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Are ignoring these things. You can choose to ignore this
if you want. The signs are there.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Maybe you don't see the sign I see the signs right,
They're right in front of your schnaws.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Right there, right, they're right there.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
And it doesn't help, by the way, that Juan Soto
is on pace for twenty seven home runs and sixty
eight runs batted in, which are the kind of numbers
Jack Peterson used to put up as Ed and Arlington
can put you. Essayisly Jack Peterson production not this year
because he's having him terrible year for the Rangers pedestrian
(11:01):
numbers pedestrian numbers. So hey, it's good. Soto's not hustling,
he's not playing well, he's not happy. But other than that,
everything's great. Nothing to see here, move on, nothing to
see all right? Now, speaking of movie on, we go
to big Tech.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Big Tech. We turned the page. It has been assumed.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
You know what happens when you assume it has been
assumed that Major League Baseball is in its final.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Days of having umpires call balls and strikes.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
This is the final opportunity if you enjoy umpires actually
deciding what's a strike and what's a ball.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
This is it now.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Not everyone is going down quietly. There is a stink
that has been raised. Corbin Burns, mister Burns of the Diamondbacks,
has underlined the concerns about what's called the Automated Ball
Strike System ABS. Burns pointing out that the margin of error,
(12:01):
the margin of error that many people have just kind
of overlooked here, that players have overlooked. It was revealed
during spring training testing that took place in the Cactus League,
in the Great Brute League, and there are slight inaccuracies
in the ABS system up to half an inch. Now,
(12:22):
I was told years ago that every inch matters, so
up to half an inch, okay, And that has led
to some debate here that how reliable is this?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Is this really the way to go?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
You know?
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Of course, the people that are selling the program are like, oh,
this is great, man, your life is going to be
so much better with this robot automated strike zone.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
It's the way to go.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
And it's much more reliable compared to you evil humans.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
You evil humans. All right, So how do you vote?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
How do you vote on the automated ball strike plan
for Major League Baseball and these concerns that are popping
up right now. So I have an unpopular opinion on this.
I have an unpopular opinion. I vote for humans.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
You shouldn't do that. Vo would you vote for humans? Oh?
They get it wrong. I actually like the human factor.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I know you're just a boomer man, You're old dude. Okay,
I will laugh at you when you lose your job
to a robot. I will point my finger and go, hah,
you lose their ha.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Just in general.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Sorry, not sorry on this replay. I've learned this over
these now. When replay started, I was like, oh.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
This is great, man, this is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
But the more replay they've added and they've messed with
the game and all of our sports, it's all we
must get it right. You have to get it right.
And I've learned as I've grown as watching sports over
the use that it's not the silver bullet, it's not
the cure all, it's not the wand that so many
(14:01):
of you dopes think it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Is, it's not.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And again I go back to the word manipulation, right,
and with replay, I remember when replay startup, people like, Wow,
it's gonna end fights and arguments.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
No, there's there's still arguments. There's still debates and all
that stuff. But it does allow manipulation. Well, how could
it allow manipulation?
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Come on, because an automated strike zone somewhere along the
way is set up by Big Baseball, right, somewhat at
Baseball is gonna set it up.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
And what is their agenda?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Is that half an inch margin of air gonna help
certain teams more than other teams?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Oh, that would never do that.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yeah, because people in sports are always on the up
and up, like the cheating astros.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Right, deacon, right, you know who you are.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
So for those of you that are on the side
of the robots, on the robots side of the aisle,
how far do you want to go? Cause I was
thinking about it, like if you you are really like, hey, listen,
we don't want calls to be wrong, and I want
the ABS system. So I think the next logical step
is you probably do not want pitchers to get hurt.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
You know, many pitchers have.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Shredded their elbows the Tommy John surgery. They've got shoulder
problems because of pitching. And I know for a fact
that we can solve that problem with technology. Why not
just get rid of the pitchers and we'll bring in
the jugs pitching gun, the pitching machines from drugs, and
(15:37):
we'll have the manager play with the buttons on the machine,
will have it automated, well not really automat but there's
like a joystick, and make it like a video game.
And the manager can pick which pitch they want to
use for the jugs machine and no pictures will ever
get hurt, and they can.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Pitch the same machine.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
You can have a different, you know, a couple different machines,
and I guess you don't need the bullpen anymore. You
can sell seats, get rid of the bullpen and all that.
I think that's a great way to go, right, And
I know how cheap people in business are from working
in my business and being around other people, that if
baseball could convince you idiots that it's we'll just have
(16:17):
the judgment, will have the jugs machine out there that
will make it like a video simulation.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
And if you would watch it.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
They would be in it, just like the NFL would
like to do flag football, and then they'd eventually get
rid of the players NASCAR. I know for a fact
they'd love just robotic cars and they don't have to
worry about anyone getting hurt in any of that. All right, now,
save a couple bucks, all right, final point, quick guy.
A developing controversy in college football.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
For years, USC.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
And Notre Dame have been one of the signature games
right around Thanksgiving time college football fall, weather in the
air everywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
The rivalry ATE's back over one hundred years.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
It was in nineteen twenty four they started playing, and
this year.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Could be it. What.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Yeah, there's an expiring contract and USC not Notre Dame.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
USC is offering a one year extension.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And the chatter which is out there is that when
Notre Dame wants a long term.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Deals, he's like, we only want to do one more year.
Why is that? There's tension?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
USC is said to be concerned about scheduling and the
college football playoff format as well. Their reluctance is being driven,
we are told by the Lincoln Riley and the fact
that SC is now in the Big ten and so
they have to travel to the Midwest and the Big
Tens of National Conference, there's teams in New Jersey and Maryland,
(17:55):
so they have to make the trip and all that.
And so they were complaining about the travel demands and
it's going to Indiana is another trip to the Midwest
and all that stuff. So, Lincoln Riley, this is unreal.
It's another one of those stories. I thought was sat tire.
I'm not gonna lie. I thought it was fake. So
Lincoln Riley prioritizing the playoff in college football and travel
over tradition. So what does this move Again, it's just
(18:20):
speculation this point, But what does this move by Lincoln
Riley to end the Notre Dame rivalry signal to you?
So to me, it's obvious that you decommission Lincoln Riley.
You fire Lincoln Riley, like, what are you doing? Seriously?
That is a cowardly act by Lincoln Riley. USC in
(18:41):
the Big Ten has been a craft Heinz product. They
have been cool whip under Lincoln Riley. They are soft
and creamy. That is what they are. And you're grumbling
about travel demands. Tell me you're soft without telling me
you soft? A Number one and Notre Dame is a
national platform game. That is the kind of a game
(19:05):
you go to a school to play in. And you're
going to get rid of that because you're worried about travel.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
As long as you have Wi Fi on the plane, okay,
as long as you have Wi Fi in the plane,
the players will sit in said plane and be on
their phones and their tablets. And it's like that's what
they'd be doing anyway if they weren't in the plane.
So as long as the WiFi is working on a plane,
the travel's no issue. Okay, the travels no issue. And
(19:33):
the whole playoff thing is comical when you think about
how chicken fertilizer like SC football has been. And they
couldn't beat Maryland and they couldn't beat the Golden Golphers
of Minnesota, and they're talking about a playoff playoffs. As
Jim Morey said, he used to work here. Come on,
what are you doing in Lincoln, right? I mean, you've
(19:55):
produced soft football teams?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Now even get an end the Notre Dame rival all right?
Speaker 2 (20:01):

Speaker 1 (24:13):

Speaker 2 (24:16):
All right, Lorrey? Do you have an answer to the
Mallard Riddle of the day? Seventy six years Rookie Jared
McCain recently launched his own line of blank lingerie ben lingerie?
All right, Well that's not right, but you're not far off, Lorena.
It's something that often goes with lingerie that many women
like to wear with their lingerie. That would be nail polish.
(24:40):
His own line of nail polish.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Hey, listen, that's you. If that's your thing. In good
for you.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Reminds me that famous line, the marketing line from the
cigarettes Virginia's Slims back in the day.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I think it was it was You've come a long
way baby.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
That was the line, right, the marketing slogan. Well, this
is also you've come a long way. Right. There was
a time that if you were a professional athlete, and you,
as a male professional athlete, announced that you were going
to hawk nail polish, that was not going to happen.
Here we are, and there's like a bunch of quarterbacks.
(25:28):
Caleb Williams, he's probably gonna be the number one customer there,
the Bears quarterback. He loves that. And there are there
are other quarters back there. You go make make a
killing on that. Is there a big market for men
to buy nail polish? Maybe there is, no, No, there's
not a lot of men out there, Loraina. When you
come across a man that's got nice nail polish, just
that to kind of get you a little excited there,
because I look at that.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Guy's got nailed When I see that, I just assume
he doesn't play for my team. Ben he's on the
other side.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Oh that's fine. You know it takes you know, every
team needs star players and all that.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
All right, let's go to the phones and we have
your eenie meenie, miney moe.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
This guy Mike is Mike. We already took your call,
Mike and Houston. Are you still there, Mike, We already
talked to you. You're going to the day shift. You've
got some health problems. Is that correct? We already had
the conversation.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Yeah, yeah, we talked.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Oh okay, how's the show sound are we doing?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (26:24):
What grade would you get? What grade would you give
the show? Like on A B, C, D E F
no E. They don't know, but what grade would you
give the show? Yeah? The show? Okay, thank you?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
All right, that's an honest analysis right there. I asked
the question. You know, I never got that grade. I
never gat on my report card. I wanted that grade.
I never got that grade. I never nobody ever gave
me that grade.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Yeah, let's go to jeedhu Fled.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I do need some contemptence for Malor's a mount of
money that'll be coming up in a little bit.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
You want to hear what he said.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
You'll have to listen to the podcast, hour three of
the pod. Hello, Jed who Fled?
Speaker 5 (27:10):
You want to get yourself down? I was going to
drop nineteen ninety f and seven, but I just couldn't.
I don't have the I don't have the testicles that
I had. That was impressive. That was very very impressive.
It does sound me great, dude. That's why I called him.
Then I just got a question. You don't have to
you don't have to tally after on the spot. I
heard you say something about Charlie the other night, and
he had called in and both Charlie's and then hung
up before you could go to him. From Vesquez, I'll
(27:32):
ty who spends the most time on hold to not
get on the air if you had to just do
it right after, I have myself. You you you.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
What you do is you often you'll be on hold
and you'll be next, and then you'll hang up, and
so then you go to the back of the line
if you if you on hoy, so that's your move
is you're on hold a lot, but you usually hang
up and sending you go to the bottom. Blind Scott
is on hold the entire show. Like right now, Blind
Scott is still on hold, and I can't get rid
(28:03):
of me.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Blind Scott's he's the opposite of thirty eight special Dude.
He's there, he's their worst nightmare. He's holding on too tightly,
he won't let go. But if you go to the
Reddit page, man and you'll see that it's definitely not
blind Scott. But this this transgender Sabrina person. They've got
a thousand posts, and they high foot blind Scott every post.
I'm sure that they're not blind Scott.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
No, no, somebody else. It's is obviously a different person.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
And I don't you know, I'm not on the reddit page.
I know Spaccoli started a different Reddit page for the show,
a subreddit page which is not the original reddit.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
What do we do?
Speaker 5 (28:33):
What do we do in situations where transgender people are dead?
Named themselves?
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Yeah? I don't That's not my world. I don't know.
That's not my world.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Jed, You're you're annoyed by You're annoyed by this, though, Joe,
you're troubled by this. It's and you bother.
Speaker 5 (28:46):
No Ben, no Ben. Here in Florida, when I walk
into the women's locker room and I say, hey, what's up,
I'm I'm lazy. Yeah, they they take me to jail.
And so I'm very familiar with that and that in
my jail, you don't get to pick the shower you
go to and trust me, Tron trying. Oh he likes
white he like white meat.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
O good, all right, all right, thank you? So glad
I took that call. Appreciate that. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
J Bone is important. We had heard him, Jybone in
a while. Where have you been, pell He's not even
there right now? Oh there is right now, that's j Bone.
That's the great loss. There's the great Jaybone. We haven't
talked to him, and sometimes where have you been?
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Jaybone? I have been working the dreaded day shift.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
We lost another good foot soldier, the damn day shift.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Crack back, man, I'm back you really for real? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (29:39):
Yeah, I started my shift right when you show shots.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
All right, j Bone is back and better than ever.
He's returned to the show. Thank god.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
How terrible? How terrible? How terrible was the day shift?
Speaker 5 (29:52):
All right?
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Come on, I'm still kind of the day shift because
I get to sleep at night a little bit, so
you know here at three?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, alright, I got you, I got yeah.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
I just want to let you know your monologue about
your baseball with the manager using.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
The pitching machine. You got to get that to happen.
That would be amazing.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Oh, it would be wonderful and no one will ever
get hurt.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
You don't have to worry about signing pictures, the big contracts,
and you have.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Those cheating assts rigging the machine to be two and
a mile mile fastball.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Yeah, that's that is a that is a concern. I'm
not gonna disagree with you. That would be a concerned.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
But the other thing too would be if you bring
the pitching machine in and uh and that element of it,
you can then interview the person that makes the pitching machine.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Right, You're gonna have the different people that make them
on and.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
You can you know, they could break it down, you know,
like the backstory the play by play guy.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Well, this pitching machine came from a factory in Ohio.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Uh, but they it's going against a pitching machine that
was made in a factory in California.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
So we'll see you who makes a better pitching machine?
Amazing from child?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Oh yeah, well I don't know. Well, but I guess
they got rid of the tariffs. I don't know what's
going on with that, but yes, nothing.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Third rail on my third rail. Don't go there? Dare
you hot?
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Dare you?
Speaker 1 (31:13):
I'm glad, I'm glad you're back. I'm glad you're back here.
All right, make the barbs, all right, thank you, go away,
our buddy.

in a little bit.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Tom, Tom the Plumber says, uh, I agree with you
a pitching machine idea. I'd love to see some jugs
on the mound. Well, the ratings would go up, but
there are drugs on the mound. Yeah, Chipping the Q's right,
since says a plus on the mall of monologue one,
Soda is obviously doing his Robinson Cano, don't you know impersonation?
Speaker 1 (31:54):
He got paid and now he's no longer busting his hump.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
I think Chip, the clinical term is he got paid
and the Mets got played. He reminds me of former
Tennessee Titan slacker fat Albert Hainsworth.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
He is what he says. There you go, all right?
Speaker 2 (32:12):

Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
