Speaker 2 (00:45):
Now?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
We have like basketball continually on the docket. It was
I was watching last night and I again, I continue
to believe that even though Clippers have a new arena,
you know there's some Obviously, the Celtics look dominant in
their in their first game. This is one year in
which maybe because there isn't too much off court drama,
(01:09):
there just hasn't been. There just hasn't been a ton
of build up for the NBA season. But we are
on the eve of the World Series kicking off, and
I can't wait two thousand, World Series two, I've as
seen me twenty twenty four. World Series is Dodgers Yankees.
Of course we haven't seen this in forty years, so
(01:29):
should be awesome. But with no like NFL Tonight or
do we have wait, we do have NFL night, don't
we I totally forgot vikings Rams. That's what it is.
Sammy Donald comes home, Sam Donald comes home. That's pretty cool.
Outside of that, eh, So on Thursdays we'd like to
throw it back.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't call it a throwback Thursday.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
All right, what's the throwback Thursday? Year to? We're done?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Thank you, Doug. I'll take it from here. Try to
go back to the year two thousand. Now, this is
a very controversial thing and I don't want to spend
a segment on it. But the year two thousand was
either the last year of the millennium or it was
the first year of the millennium. That's a very controversial
(02:24):
topic and I don't want to get into it. We
could spend the other year.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Very controversial. It's it's a it is people go on
one side or the other. I don't know if anybody
sits around and argues it though.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
So in the year two thousand, just like tonight, the
Vikings visited the Rams. But if you remember, the Rams
were in Saint Louis, the Rams are the greatest show
on turf. The Rams were coming off a Super Bowl
championship in the year two thousand, twenty four years ago
(02:57):
this fall. Mike Martz was making his rookie head coaching
debut that year. Remember, Mike Martz was the offensive mine
behind the Rams team that won the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Mark Bulger Is on quarterback. Yeah, yit, yepit, yep.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
It, and he took over Mike Martz and they played
a Vikings team if you remember right, you know from
their late nineties when after they drafted Randy Moss and
they had Randall Cunningham read an amazing season. Well, Dante
Culpepper was the quarterback this night, so you had Dante
Culpeper's Vikings visiting Kurt Warners Rams. In two thousand. The
(03:40):
Rams won forty to twenty nine that night. Kurt Warner
had a very big night, throwing for three hundred and
forty six yards. That Marshall Falk though he really stood out.
Marshall Falk ran for one hundred and thirty five yards
and four touchdowns. Doug Dante Culpepper had an okay night.
(04:01):
Robert Smith was the rusher, was the running back, didn't
do much. The Rams win that night, and later on
that season the Ravens would go on to win their
first Super Bowl. Of course, everyone remembers ray Lewis had
uh has an unfortunate thing happened leading up to that
Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
But when the only thing unfortunately happened to Ray Lewis,
I think an unfortunate thing happened to the guy who
was killed.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
That's a great point. Yeah, the unfortunate thing happened involving
Ray Lewis.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Two thousand was the was the I mean, this is
obviously Sam was young, but this is like how he
became Big Apple Sam. That was the Subway series, wasn't it?
Subway Series series?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Wasn't that two thousand That's when my big Apple Sam
dumb was born.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
And then of course we had two Sarai guys going
at it with Mike Piazza and uh Roger Clemens. Right
the Mike Piazza broken bat that landed, you know, like
on the ground at Roger Clemens. Rodgers Cumms got mad.
How dare your bat break?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You want to hear it?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Pitch the ball to you.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Sure, here we go. The barrel of the bat comes
back at Roger Clemens and he fires the bat back
toward Piatsu, who is going down the first base line.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah. I'm not really sure what Piazza did wrong to
have his bat break.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Anyone, It did nothing wrong. Clemens was obviously on a
steroid roid rage. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
And one tidbit about this, and I'll try to put
this as delicately as possible. This happened very early in
Game two, and at the time, among other things, Clemens'
pregame preparation routine included the having the Yankees trainer applying
the hottest possible liniment to clemmens testicles. So perhaps that's
(06:08):
why he was so ornery early in the game. I'm
not making light up.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
How did where does this information come from?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
From? The trainer himself? A guy named Steve Donahue. What
was that liniment?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Wait? Wait wait, so they would put like hot so
they have these hot clay packs.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
He would take, Yeah, he would take like the hottest
possible whirlpool bath bath and So what they.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Do is is when you want heat in your in
professional or collegiate sports, they have these like clay packs, Sam,
and the clay packs you wrap them in like a
towel because otherwise, I mean, it's just too hot. And
the heat they usually it's like this hot hot, almost
like boiling water, that they sit in and you take
them out and you put them and you wrap them
and then I guess if you want your balls warmed up, like, Okay.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
We don't need to be roasting chestnuts on chestnuts on
an open fire, you know, I mean.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Chess, that's roasting on an open fire. I mean, that's
your pregame routine. That's your pregame routine. Now might have
it might have been because of all the steroids he
was taking, they had retracted and this is maybe his
way to get them to come down.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
I'm not right if you do not get this kind
of analysis anywhere else.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Folks second that that's what happens when you take steroids. Right.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
So anyway, uh, twenty four years ago, Doug around this time,
something would happened that it was the first time in
the history of the country it happened.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
And then it would just become an annoying trend. The
election results of two thousand were not known on election day.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Oh yeah about that. This is the al Gore one. Right.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
George W. Bush, Florida Supreme I was in I was
in Russia. Well, do not have elections here?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
One two thousand?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Who's that Saint Petersburg? Sam chiming in there? Well? Once
Pulton gets an office in the.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Dah yes, no, yeah, gav Ni no Paruski.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
What was your favorite thing about Russia, Doug. I know
this offshoot question, but I'm just curious. What was your
favorite thing about living there and playing there?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Making money?
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Good point, I think, yeah, Britney Grinder.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Before she got arrested making money. Sorry, Jason, back to
you by a.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Long bye bye. I mean listen, like seeing that culture
was amazing. I'm leaving also amazing, Wow, amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Well you're not cannot leave, dog, you stay for nothing.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
About Russia is you always have captive audience there not
going anywhere. That's Yakov Schmiranov. By the way, I love it.
Yakov schmirenovs he's still around.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I believe he's still around.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Okay, he has the theater in Branson, Missouri.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Right, Doug, you'll appreciate this. You've talked about this on
the show many times. I could tell you you have
a special place in your heart for this. The show
Survivor debut.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Oh my gosh, my college roommates like audition for that show.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I think it's the greatest show, most impactful show in
the history of television. Not just was it the first
real mainstream reality show, but that's how life works. Life
in business is about alliances, right alliances, and survive. Just
find a way to survive. Align yourself with the right people.
You know, read the temperature of the room. Find a
(09:38):
way to survive.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
So true.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
We were in Russia. We were in Russia. Now we're Russia.
Two thousand and one. Two thousand was my senior in college,
but two thousand and one. But we we couldn't wait
for those The cassette would come and it would have
four episodes on it, and I mean, here's how disciplined
we were. We'd watch one episode at a time, one
episode of time.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
By the way, we have a Yakov Smirnov update. Not
only is he let's go.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Live the chapter five with a Yakov sure Off update.
Speaker 5 (10:12):
You do a good helicopter sound effect. By the way
that he is now seventy three years old and he
has just embarked on a new project. He has started
a new podcast called The Comedy Couch, where a recent
guest was John Lovett. So yakov S.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
John love it's my favorite character in the lead of
their own Cowgirls see the grass I do eat it. He
was the announcer, right, No, he was a scout. He's
a scout.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Oh I thought he was the announcement bring you can go?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
No, why wait?
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Wait wait he has a podcastsh that's so surprising, just
started it. How many people on this show have a podcast?
I have another, I have two. Jason has one.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
If I refuse, I never will.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Sam Ney's that one.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I'll be Japple. I'll be joining Brian Fenley to actually
talk to you. Celia. Iowa here and about I.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Can't really promote I have a new podcast, because that's
literally everybody that's like saying I have something that a
couple of people have an email address. That's what it is.
Since you asked, I have a cellular phone.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Since you asked, my podcast partner Brian Beckner and I
had did a special Dodgers preview. That's out now on
the Ballerlifestyle dot com Baller Lifestyle, we do our own
snarky Dodgers preview. I very much recommend it.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I can't imagine you doing something snarky.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah, and I actually give praise to Andrew Friedman, which
I'm not inclined to do, but I kind of had
to give him a little bit of praise. Now. I
don't know what Andrew Friedman was doing in the year
two thousand, but I do know that while Mike Piazza
was getting a bat thrown at him, and it was
probably listening to this and a discman on the way
(11:57):
to the game. Oh yeah, game changer.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
The solid.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Has hip hop ever been the same since?
Speaker 1 (12:17):
No No No is the parallel? Is he Luca or
is he Larry Bird by Larry Bird?
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Larry Bird?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, and I think kind of like Larry Bird like you. Now,
when we talk about all time great players, so many
people don't mention Larry Bird. Laryerdhould absolutely mentioned the greatest
players of all time. I think Eminem probably doesn't get
mentioned enough in the greatest rappers of all time.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
By the way, the term stan that I had actually
originated with an Eminem song. I have one more sports one.
That was the first Kobe Shack film Lakers Championship. It
was called first year with the Lakers, and it was
a rather dramatic set of circumstances. Shaq was the MVP.
They took the league by storm, had the best record
in the league, had to go to a deciding fifth
(13:11):
game in the opening round of Sacramento, nearly blew a
three to one lead in the conference finals, had to
come up with that epic comeback in Game seven against
the Blazers, featuring the Kobe to Shack epic unforgettable dunk
at the end of Game seven. And then they go
to the finals against Larry Bird, Reggie Miller and the Pacers.
Kobe sprains's ankle in Game two, comes back with an
(13:33):
iconic performance in Game four and overtime after Shack fouls out,
and then they win the series and six, and it
was the first of the three straight championships.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
And that's don't call it a comeback, thirs, don't call
it a throwback. They're sorry. I get the song in
my head. Don't call it.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
A don't call it a throwback. Thursday. Fox Sports Radio

Speaker 1 (14:10):
If you were a college student like I was in
the year two thousand, you know that this song spent
twenty one weeks at number one. We Stug Gottlieb show
here on Fox Sports Radio. John Paul Morosi will join us.
I got workouts for tomorrow's World Series going on right
now at the Ravine. We'll get to that. But do
(14:32):
you guys know the Rams and Vikings have only been
five times in the last ten years. I mean, seems
like it it'd be a low number, but then half
the time, I don't know. It's weird. Both teams have
been successful on and off right. Obviously, the Rams have
been to two Super Bowls in the last ten years,
Vikings have not. But the Vikings have been kind of
a perennial I feel like a perennial playoff team. Tonight
(14:54):
we have obviously a game at so far it's gonna
be pretty cool. The issue, though, is that, man, even
though you have somebody from your coaching tree and Kevin
O'Connell coming in, who do the Rams have in terms
of personnel. They've just been decimated, decimated by injuries. Now
(15:16):
Cooper Cup is expected to play? Is that we do?
We have confirmation of that. Not gonna play. Let's go
to Isaac Low and Cron for a for an injury update. Isaac,
what do you got?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (15:30):
They officially activated Puka Nakua from injured reserve in fact,
just moments ago. So he is set to return tonight
after missing five games due to a sprained knee. Cooper
Cup not expected to be back just yet.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Okay, noted.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Noted, I don't know, no, no, I bet bet, I
beg your pardon. I read that wrong.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
No, he is.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
He is expected to be back. He has officially no
injury designation. Uh Nikouah was listed as questionable, but they
officially activated uh Nikua just a short time ago, and
Cup has no injury designation because he participated in full
practice this week.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
So I was right. Cooper Cups back now, Pooka Nukua
is back. Stan's the reason they're just gonna throw around
the yard. Those two dudes. You're just gonna throw it
around the yard. That said, obviously, not a super super
strong year at all for the Minnesota VIK for the
La Rams take on the Minnesota Vikings. I just we
(16:38):
we keep holding our breath for the Sam Donald thing
to collapse, and I don't know, a standalone game on
a Thursday night, plus the trade deadline looming, this becomes
a big one for him to show that he can
lead this team to the playoffs. Let's get you to
Isaac loun Khan before we get you some baseball with
Jpmrosi Hilo.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
All right, he dug on the Viking side. Multiple outlet's
reporting they are downgrading tight end TJ. Hockinson to out
for tonight's game against the Rams. Hawkinson towards ACL and
MCL in week sixteen of last season. He's now expected
to make his season debut next week against the Indianapolis Colts. Today,
Detroit Lions receiver Jamison Williams was officially suspended two games
(17:19):
for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing substances. Williams
then released a statement via his agent, reading quote, the
news came as a complete surprise that I am still
trying to understand unquote. The Miami Dolphins added receiver Tyreek
Hill to their injury report today. He was listed as
a limited participant in practice due to a foot injury.
(17:40):
Washington Commander's quarterback Jade Daniels did not practice today because
of a rib injury sustained to the last week's win
over Carolina. Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said
newly acquired receiver DeAndre Hopkins could make his debut as
early as this Sunday's game at Las Vegas and Carolina
Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton did not practice today because of
a brained right thumb that he sustained in a car
(18:02):
accident on Tuesday. Doug back to you, all.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Right, thank you so much. I love It's Doug Gottlieb Show,
Fox Sports Radio. Let's welcome in our Fox Sports Radio.
MLB insider John Paul J. P. Mer Rossi joins us
in the Doug Gotlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio. I've
made the case, okay. I'm I'm a longtime baseball fan.
I'm not you, obviously, I'm not Jay stew I go
(18:27):
to a couple of games a year. I have some
some some of my friend's sons are playing. I know
people in front offices. I love baseball. Baseball has been
really good the past couple of years. The rule changes
have made it a better and a better watch, but
none of that matters if some non you know people
like me don't watch in the world in the biggest game?
(18:48):
How big do you think the fact that we have
Yankees and Dodgers in the World Series is for the
overall health of the sport?
Speaker 7 (18:55):
Well, the first of all, happy World Series, and second
of all, I really appreciate the way that you laid
out the question because it's not just now a time
and an occasion for the Dodgers and Yankees to face
each other, but they're facing each other at a time
where the game itself and the product is the best
version that it's been in a while. And I think
(19:16):
in that respect, it's really a unique opportunity for the
sports to showcase what it can do when the biggest
stars are involved and the product itself is also at
its peak. And so you've got Otani and Judge, one
of them is about to become a first time World
Series champion in his World Series debut, and there's going
(19:37):
to either be a parade in la which they really
couldn't have in twenty twenty, or there's going to be
a parade down the canyon of heroes in New York
and for American baseball fans and indeed fans around the
world who understand the impact of Otani and how many
people in Japan will be watching Games one and two
on weekend mornings at eight am and Tokyo. It's just
(20:00):
a it feels like, Doug, that there's going to be
a moment and the one thing I want to get
out in front of and caution everybody here, do not
get yourself twisted up in well, well, if it doesn't
have the same market share in Grand Rapids, Michigan that
it had for the Cardinals and Royals in eighty five,
then for some reason it's not as big. No, the
(20:21):
world is different. We've got all these different streaming services
and all these different channels, and the world is on
your phone in your pocket, and if you're getting the
right amount of impressions and whatever it is via social media,
I think the game is going to resonate. The idea
right now is a resonance and relevance, and Doug, what
you're talking about here is that baseball right now feels
(20:42):
as relevant as it has been in probably a couple decades.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I completely agree. Okay, let's talk about the matchup, I
mean Dodgers had to fight back against the Padres, and
I think it'd be an easy case to make that
the Padres probably, you know what, they're starting pitching. They
might have a better roster, but they did it with
incredible pitching, some with starters, but a lot with that bullpen.
What's the matchup likewise, matchup wise look like for the series, Well, I.
Speaker 7 (21:12):
Think a couple things stand out to me. Number one,
you're right, the Dodgers having to figure out their their
pitching and and I think progressively as the as the
month has gone along, they've gotten better and better at
managing what is a suboptimal set of starting pitching because
they don't have Glass now, they don't have Stone, they
don't have Kershaw, so that they're they're operating at a
(21:33):
diminished level. And yet they've still been good enough to
beat the Padres, who I thought were as completed a
team as there was to your point. And then the
Mets and what that was a very competitive and compelling
six game series, despite how many of the games were
lopsided within the overall set of games. But the Yankees
are a different challenge and one of the biggest reasons why,
Doug is the Yankees do not go outside the zone.
(21:55):
And that is I think that the biggest difference. The
Yankees are the most disciplined team in the playoffs in
terms of not chasing. And so if you want to
get Soto out and Judge out and Stanton out and
Glaber out and Rizzo, by and large, you got to
be in the zone. And if you're not going to
be in the zone, then you're gonna start walking guys.
(22:17):
And that was exactly what happened to the Guardians. Really
good pitching staff, but they walked too many batters and
that eventually stung them when there were two guys on
base when stand at that ball that still hasn't landed
yet somewhere in Ohio. And I think that to me, Dougs,
is what I'm seeing right now is is I think
the Yankees are a higher level of difficult at bat
that the Dodgers pitching staff. As great as they've been,
(22:39):
they have not encountered a team yet like this one.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Okay, the one thing about the Yankees that everybody tells
me is they are obnoxious with how they ride the
umpires for the strike zone. Right both them, and the
Dodgers really worked to count The Yankees are known in
the sport wrong by the way.
Speaker 7 (22:56):
JP, well, who, I guess what I'd say is this
a couple of things. Number one, Uh, we have the
benefit in our baseball media community of the great work
of John Boy. John Boy covers the Yankees very closely.
Aaron Boone happens to be someone who who who is
not bashful about about telling the umpires what's going on.
(23:16):
And there's a lot of cameras there. I tend to
think that there are probably other managers who say about
as much as Aaron, but there aren't quite as many
cameras aimed at the other twenty nine managers, and Aaron,
I think has become somewhat famous, so there's probably some
truth to it, but the perception I think is also
fed into that that rap a little bit. But to
your point, Doug, it's going to be interesting because now
(23:38):
now all the thoughts about well MLB wants the quote
unquote that the Yankees and Dodges with some people have said, well,
guess what they got it now. So so at this
point in time, I don't want to hear anybody from
any markets saying well, the fingers being put up the
scale for this team or the other. No, the matchup
is there. It's the one that a lot of people
(23:58):
wanted to see. You're gonna to get it, and and
at this point in time, I think everybody's just thrilled
that it's a it's a really compelling matchup.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Okay, But I wanted to get to the fact the
the automated strike zone, which Manfred said, hey, you know,
sometime in the next four years, what are we waiting for?
Minor leagues? Has it? It works? Works really well? What
are we waiting for?
Speaker 7 (24:24):
I think a couple of things are are important here
and and usually whenever there's a hold up in something
like this where to your point, the technology exists, but
there are two really big negotiations that have to be
handled here. One is the next CVA with the players,
and one is the next CVA with the umpires. And
and that's why you can't just snap your fingers and
boom put the technology out there. It's some technology you can,
(24:47):
but this is this is now I think fundamentally altering
the just the modality of of what the umpire is doing.
And so it's not quite a ready made microwavable fix
where changes everything immediately. It's going to take a little
bit more time, I think because of the CBA piece
and also the time of game piece. And by the way,
(25:09):
I'm a supporter of this, of the challenge system, by
which you're not gonna have every single pitch that's done
by the automated ball strike system, but rather the challenge.
If there's a ball that is like two balls with
outside that gets called a strike, the hitter taps his helmet,
the review happened, it takes ten seconds, and then all
of a sudden you're back in the count rolling again.
(25:31):
That system is better than every pitch being called, in
my opinion, because if you called every pitch, you would
take out I think a lot of the human element,
not just for the umpire, but for the pitcher, for
the catcher, for the batter. That's a beautiful part of
the game. I don't think I want to give all
of it over the computers, but the big mistakes, yes,
I do support that, and I think eventually does that's
(25:51):
where baseball is going to go.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Stut Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. John Paul
Morosi is our guest. Okay, obviously we know the top headliners.
We kind of did this a little bit earlier on
the show. Who's the guy we're not talking about effects
the series.
Speaker 7 (26:09):
The most, So a couple guys. I'll mention Number one
on the Yankee side of things, Luke Weaver, who had
one major league offer last offseason. It was from the
New York Yankees to be a depth starter the Yankees.
When spring training starter, they thought he was going to
be probably and this is an honest assessment from the Yankees,
they thought he was their seventh or eighth starters. They
(26:30):
thought he was going to be a triple A or insurance.
The coal injury happened, obviously, but that was not what
their role was. They didn't think he was going to
be closing, closing out to the American League pennant clinching game.
So Luke Weaver changes fastball grip, became a different guy,
and all of a sudden, now he's the best closer
they've had in New York in a long time. And
(26:50):
then Holmes is better now earlier in the game. So
I think that's on the Yankee side of things. Glaber Torres,
by the way, I think it's been overshadowed a bit
by the other superstars. There no no question, excellent postseasons,
excellent postseasons. And then on the Dodger side, two guys
on the offensive side, Tommy Edmund NLCS MVP. I still
feel like he hasn't gotten quite the do that he
deserves because he can bouncer on the field for you
(27:10):
and being above average defender at multiple positions. And then
Key K Hernandez, who likes stand up for the Yankees
is just playing better in the month of October, so
you've got all ready to cast the stars. And then
guys like Edmund and Key K and John Carlow and
Weaver who seemed to be elevating their game. So it
is going to be I believe a world series for
the Ages.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Stuck Ottleab show here on Fox Sports Trader. That's the
voice of John Paul Morosi. Of course, he's our Major
League Baseball insider and an MLB Network reporter. Enjoy the series.
We'll talk very very soon.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Thanks Ma, our guests, Doug, happy world here in my
friend all the best few as well as we is
starting with basketball season two. Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Yeah, you're your Wolverring's look very very good by the
way I mean, and really better.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
I saw a big time, a big time committed for
next year as well. Dusky's doing work, so good stuff there.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Dusty is doing a great great job. They blew out
oak and in Uh in their scrimmage, I believe, or
maybe the exhibition game just to start a thinking with
was a scrimmage charity scrimmage, if you will. And Oakland's good.
Just Michigan's really really good. Thanks John, John. John of
course always gives us our our Michigan update. Ja Jay
(28:18):
stew if I were to ask you, if are to
ask you, okay, because you've been pretty much off with
most every prediction and and you know you can own
it as if you weren't. But most of the thing
you obviously part of it is you'r such a curmudgeon.
Now the Dodgers finally get to the World Series, what
to you is that is the biggest thing? And I
(28:39):
know it's hard, like previewing stuff is dumb, But as
a as somebody who watches like every Dodger game, what's
the biggest thing you're looking for?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
And let's clarify, previewing stuff is not dumb. Predicting stuff
is dumb. There's a there's a distinct difference in my mind.
I think predicting is lazy. Radio previewing. I liked, I
liked U. Let me give you one thing that I'm
thinking about, and I am. I am optimistic about this series.
It's so rare that I go into a series with
(29:08):
my Dodgers feeling optimistic. It just seems like everything has
kind of gone our way since Game three of the
LEDs and then what I'm about to say there is
there's almost like a cosmic intrusion into my optimism. Losing
(29:29):
the great Fernando Alinzuela this week is very sad, rip Fernando.
But there's there's a way that I think this is
going to work for the Dodgers in a cosmic way.
You could wear number thirty four on their sleeves. Fernando
Velinzuela pitched in the last World Series that the Dodgers
(29:50):
had against the Yankees in nineteen eighty one. That was
the year of Fernando Mania. There are so many things
kind of working here from like a math standpoint and
a cosmic standpoint that I really do think that, you know,
not that the Dodgers need any more motivation. But this
could work for the Dodgers. I really do think so.
So not only do I like the matchup and the
(30:11):
way the bullpen's pitching, I just think that there's something
maybe metaphysical going on here too.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Really, do you guys buy that, Isaac? You buy the
metaphysical like there's something greater at work. The gods of
karma are coming.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Together for the Yeah, I would add Vince Scully to that.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
I mean, what about Vin Scully? You have a sombrero.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Throw it to the guy.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
That's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Baby, we don't understand what does that have to do
with him saying Fernando just died.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
Well, first of all, Vin was the English language soundtrack
of Fernandomania. He delivered that famous when he pitched a
no hitter in nineteen ninety And remember I think it
was the either the twenty seventeen or twenty eighteen World Series.
They did that thing where Vin went out to the
(31:11):
mound to throw out the first pitch, then pretended to
injure his shoulder, so he called Fernando out to the mound.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
To relieve him. So he absolutely plays him with the karma.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Feels like I reached semi, what do you think.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I didn't say, oh, are you reacting to his I
will say this. I think they're emotionally more charged for
this world series. I think Shohey makes all of these
guys step up their game. I mean, you have like
a stud player like everyone else just wants to match
his greatness.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
So that's the thing I think.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Yeah, I think there is some emotional The Fernando stuff
will be kind of an emotional motive for them. I
don't know if it goes into the cosmos, but there
is something palpable at play here. It's not just the
guys on the roster. There's something. There's something else for
the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
This is the Doug Outlip Show on Fox Sports Radio.
Coming up next live from the Tyreck dot Com Studios.
Details about the ped suspension from one of the Detroit
Lions wide receivers. That's up coming next, but first on
the DraftKings sportsbook gap. Right now, the Vikings are giving
giving two and a half points to the Rams with
a total of forty seven total forty seven. It's indoors.
(32:23):
You have two high powered offenses win healthy and the
Rams are now healthy. I don't think the Rams defense
is particularly good. I think the Vikings win and cover,
so I take the Vikings even though they're giving two
and a half. But the same game parlay from DraftKings
to me is Vikings on the road. Give me the
Vikings plus two and a half and the over Vikings
(32:45):
to the over.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Doug
Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

we wrap it up by getting to so many of
(33:17):
the topics that everyone else is talking about, all condensed
in one quick little segment called the Press.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
The Press?
Speaker 1 (33:32):
What do you got there? Isac alone? Crime?
Speaker 2 (33:33):
All right?
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Doug Today. Detroit Lions receiver Jamison Williams was officially suspended
two games for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing substances.
He released a statement after that news broke via his agent,
reading quote, the news came as a complete surprise that
I'm still trying to understand. I don't take supplements or vitamins,
and I'm overly cautious about even taking over the counter medicine,
(33:56):
and no time have I ever taken anything in an
attempt to cheat. I under that I'm responsible for everything
that goes into my body, and I have to take
accountability in this instance.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
Unquote, here's my only issue with it. Okay, tell me
what you tested positive for so we can know what
it is and try and understand what the possible other
things you've taken are, Like I do. I want to
believe it, of course, but tell me what you test
the positive for.
Speaker 5 (34:24):
Right, So he would say, hey, this was the chemical,
and then it's found in this and this, and maybe
I think this, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Yeah, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
We have some news actually just breaking with multiple outlets
reporting it, and it's kind of complicated. So I'll try
and I'll try and go a little slowly here. It's
been reported by multiple outlets that a former member of
the Los Angeles Clippers training staff is suing the team
in La County Superior Court for wrongful termination, alleging that
(34:55):
he was fired after complaining that Kawhi Leonard was being
subjected to to quote, unsafe and illegal treatment for injuries.
The lawsuit also accused the Clippers of tampering before signing
Leonard in twenty nineteen, allegedly beginning as early as twenty seventeen.
Speaker 7 (35:13):
Now.
Speaker 5 (35:13):
The individual filing the suit in person, by the name
of Randy Shelton, was previously Leonard's strength and conditioning coach
at San Diego State. The Clippers said in a statement, quote,
mister Shelton's claims were investigated and found to be without merit.
We honored mister Shelton's employment contract and paid him in full.
(35:34):
This lawsuit is a belated attempt to shape down the
Clippers based on accusations that mister Shelton should know are
false unquote. Again, multiple outlets just reporting this story.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Well, we'll see, I mean, because obviously, you know, if
the Clippers want to make it go away, they can
make it go away with a check. But if we
have full disclosure, we'll find out.
Speaker 5 (35:57):
All righty Thursday night football coming up tonight. The Los
Angeles Rams officially activating receiver Puka Nakua from injured reserve,
so he's set to return tonight against the Vikings after
missing five games with the spring name multiple outlets. Meanwhile
reporting Vikings downgrading tight end TJ. Hawkinson to out for
Tonight's game. He is now expected to make his season
(36:18):
debut next week against the Colts after tearing his ACL
and MCL late last season.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
M Internsson interesting, I mean TJ. Hawkinson is obviously a
big pass catching target. I wonder how effective will be
though it does feel like there's been a lot of
Achilles tears. By the way, have you got that?
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Feel so way? I just anyway, that's just a side note.
What has he got? I love?
Speaker 5 (36:45):
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said today that
newly acquired receiver DeAndre Hopkins could make his Chief's debut
as early as this Sunday in their game on the
road against the Raiders in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
Yeah, I mean, I think I think the big thing
is he's a possession guy now, doesn't have great speed,
always been a big target. But can he fit in
with the Chiefs without having a ton of knowledge of
their system? Now? The one thing about the Chiefs is
that I don't know how much you guys have kind
of researched this. They don't run a lot of plays now.
(37:22):
They run a ton of different formations in motion, and
to that you got to you gotta gotta figure that
they got quick. But the actual route, the route tree
and routes they run not super complex, is what I've
been told.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
Maybe other NFL team should take the hints about and
that's one of the reasons that they're so successful.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
They keep well.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
There's been lots of other Andy Reid assistants hired. None
have seen much success, correct, So it kind of helps
when you have Andy Reid and Pat Mahlmes.
Speaker 5 (37:53):
The Miami Dolphins added receiver Tyreek Hill to their injury
report today. He was listed as a limited parts been
in practice today because of a foot injury to a
tongue of by Loam meanwhile, was listed as a full
participant in practice today for the Miami Dolphins as they
get ready for this weekend's home game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
I've been told Pucas that that too is going to play.
That is not confirmed that it is not from any
it's from an outside of the building source, but I
was told he's gonna play always the plan going to
play this weekend.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
And our final item on this edition of the press,
Carolina Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton did not practice today because
of the spring right thumb that he sustained on Tuesday
in a car accident.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
Of course, we're going to get a chance to see
Bryce Young play in his stead. Great opportunity for Bryce
Young to kind of get some of the bad taste
out of everybody's mouth after how he'd been playing before
he got sat down. And then obviously the changes Andy
Dalton's taken over.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
And that is this edition of the press. They get
out there and press.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
That was the press, all right, so we can document this.
It's not an official game. It is the first game
in front of a crowd and against a I think
a very very good and very well coached Saint Norbert's
team like St. Norbert's really Saint Norbert's Division III. They
win their league well the last three years they win
twenty one games a year, and coach Gresh is really good.
(39:23):
He played at Green Bay. They played the same style
that Dick Bennett Tony Bennett coached and played right slow methodical,
really really efficient, and we want to play the opposite
away so that'd be fun. No shirt and tie this game.
Think about some forums. I think maybe Stan Smith, but
(39:43):
some forums with a long sleeved shirts.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
Huh, you're nervous, little butterflies. Not really, no nobody, not
even butterflies, just a little.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
Not yet, Okay, I will tell you. I will tell
you tomorrow if I got any butterflies. But you know, excited,
a little apprehensive. We got one guy rolled his ankle
this morning. Not happy about that. But what are you
gonna do next? Man up? Uh? And of course, as
I told you, vikings to the over, Vikings to the over.
We prove you the world series tomorrow. Stug gotlib show

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Now?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
We have like basketball continually on the docket. It was
I was watching last night and I again, I continue
to believe that even though Clippers have a new arena,
you know there's some Obviously, the Celtics look dominant in
their in their first game. This is one year in
which maybe because there isn't too much off court drama,
(01:09):
there just hasn't been. There just hasn't been a ton
of build up for the NBA season. But we are
on the eve of the World Series kicking off, and
I can't wait two thousand, World Series two, I've as
seen me twenty twenty four. World Series is Dodgers Yankees.
Of course we haven't seen this in forty years, so
(01:29):
should be awesome. But with no like NFL Tonight or
do we have wait, we do have NFL night, don't
we I totally forgot vikings Rams. That's what it is.
Sammy Donald comes home, Sam Donald comes home. That's pretty cool.
Outside of that, eh, So on Thursdays we'd like to
throw it back.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't call it a throwback Thursday.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
All right, what's the throwback Thursday? Year to? We're done?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Thank you, Doug. I'll take it from here. Try to
go back to the year two thousand. Now, this is
a very controversial thing and I don't want to spend
a segment on it. But the year two thousand was
either the last year of the millennium or it was
the first year of the millennium. That's a very controversial
(02:24):
topic and I don't want to get into it. We
could spend the other year.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Very controversial. It's it's a it is people go on
one side or the other. I don't know if anybody
sits around and argues it though.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
So in the year two thousand, just like tonight, the
Vikings visited the Rams. But if you remember, the Rams
were in Saint Louis, the Rams are the greatest show
on turf. The Rams were coming off a Super Bowl
championship in the year two thousand, twenty four years ago
(02:57):
this fall. Mike Martz was making his rookie head coaching
debut that year. Remember, Mike Martz was the offensive mine
behind the Rams team that won the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Mark Bulger Is on quarterback. Yeah, yit, yepit, yep.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
It, and he took over Mike Martz and they played
a Vikings team if you remember right, you know from
their late nineties when after they drafted Randy Moss and
they had Randall Cunningham read an amazing season. Well, Dante
Culpepper was the quarterback this night, so you had Dante
Culpeper's Vikings visiting Kurt Warners Rams. In two thousand. The
(03:40):
Rams won forty to twenty nine that night. Kurt Warner
had a very big night, throwing for three hundred and
forty six yards. That Marshall Falk though he really stood out.
Marshall Falk ran for one hundred and thirty five yards
and four touchdowns. Doug Dante Culpepper had an okay night.
(04:01):
Robert Smith was the rusher, was the running back, didn't
do much. The Rams win that night, and later on
that season the Ravens would go on to win their
first Super Bowl. Of course, everyone remembers ray Lewis had
uh has an unfortunate thing happened leading up to that
Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
But when the only thing unfortunately happened to Ray Lewis,
I think an unfortunate thing happened to the guy who
was killed.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
That's a great point. Yeah, the unfortunate thing happened involving
Ray Lewis.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Two thousand was the was the I mean, this is
obviously Sam was young, but this is like how he
became Big Apple Sam. That was the Subway series, wasn't it?
Subway Series series?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Wasn't that two thousand That's when my big Apple Sam
dumb was born.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
And then of course we had two Sarai guys going
at it with Mike Piazza and uh Roger Clemens. Right
the Mike Piazza broken bat that landed, you know, like
on the ground at Roger Clemens. Rodgers Cumms got mad.
How dare your bat break?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You want to hear it?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Pitch the ball to you.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Sure, here we go. The barrel of the bat comes
back at Roger Clemens and he fires the bat back
toward Piatsu, who is going down the first base line.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah. I'm not really sure what Piazza did wrong to
have his bat break.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Anyone, It did nothing wrong. Clemens was obviously on a
steroid roid rage. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
And one tidbit about this, and I'll try to put
this as delicately as possible. This happened very early in
Game two, and at the time, among other things, Clemens'
pregame preparation routine included the having the Yankees trainer applying
the hottest possible liniment to clemmens testicles. So perhaps that's
(06:08):
why he was so ornery early in the game. I'm
not making light up.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
How did where does this information come from?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
From? The trainer himself? A guy named Steve Donahue. What
was that liniment?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Wait? Wait wait, so they would put like hot so
they have these hot clay packs.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
He would take, Yeah, he would take like the hottest
possible whirlpool bath bath and So what they.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Do is is when you want heat in your in
professional or collegiate sports, they have these like clay packs, Sam,
and the clay packs you wrap them in like a
towel because otherwise, I mean, it's just too hot. And
the heat they usually it's like this hot hot, almost
like boiling water, that they sit in and you take
them out and you put them and you wrap them
and then I guess if you want your balls warmed up, like, Okay.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
We don't need to be roasting chestnuts on chestnuts on
an open fire, you know, I mean.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Chess, that's roasting on an open fire. I mean, that's
your pregame routine. That's your pregame routine. Now might have
it might have been because of all the steroids he
was taking, they had retracted and this is maybe his
way to get them to come down.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
I'm not right if you do not get this kind
of analysis anywhere else.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Folks second that that's what happens when you take steroids. Right.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
So anyway, uh, twenty four years ago, Doug around this time,
something would happened that it was the first time in
the history of the country it happened.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
And then it would just become an annoying trend. The
election results of two thousand were not known on election day.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Oh yeah about that. This is the al Gore one. Right.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
George W. Bush, Florida Supreme I was in I was
in Russia. Well, do not have elections here?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
One two thousand?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Who's that Saint Petersburg? Sam chiming in there? Well? Once
Pulton gets an office in the.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Dah yes, no, yeah, gav Ni no Paruski.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
What was your favorite thing about Russia, Doug. I know
this offshoot question, but I'm just curious. What was your
favorite thing about living there and playing there?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Making money?
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Good point, I think, yeah, Britney Grinder.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Before she got arrested making money. Sorry, Jason, back to
you by a.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Long bye bye. I mean listen, like seeing that culture
was amazing. I'm leaving also amazing, Wow, amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Well you're not cannot leave, dog, you stay for nothing.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
About Russia is you always have captive audience there not
going anywhere. That's Yakov Schmiranov. By the way, I love it.
Yakov schmirenovs he's still around.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I believe he's still around.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Okay, he has the theater in Branson, Missouri.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Right, Doug, you'll appreciate this. You've talked about this on
the show many times. I could tell you you have
a special place in your heart for this. The show
Survivor debut.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Oh my gosh, my college roommates like audition for that show.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I think it's the greatest show, most impactful show in
the history of television. Not just was it the first
real mainstream reality show, but that's how life works. Life
in business is about alliances, right alliances, and survive. Just
find a way to survive. Align yourself with the right people.
You know, read the temperature of the room. Find a
(09:38):
way to survive.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
So true.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
We were in Russia. We were in Russia. Now we're Russia.
Two thousand and one. Two thousand was my senior in college,
but two thousand and one. But we we couldn't wait
for those The cassette would come and it would have
four episodes on it, and I mean, here's how disciplined
we were. We'd watch one episode at a time, one
episode of time.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
By the way, we have a Yakov Smirnov update. Not
only is he let's go.
Speaker 1 (10:07):

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Wait wait he has a podcastsh that's so surprising, just
started it. How many people on this show have a podcast?
I have another, I have two. Jason has one.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
If I refuse, I never will.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Sam Ney's that one.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I'll be Japple. I'll be joining Brian Fenley to actually
talk to you. Celia. Iowa here and about I.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Can't really promote I have a new podcast, because that's
literally everybody that's like saying I have something that a
couple of people have an email address. That's what it is.
Since you asked, I have a cellular phone.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Since you asked, my podcast partner Brian Beckner and I
had did a special Dodgers preview. That's out now on
the Ballerlifestyle dot com Baller Lifestyle, we do our own
snarky Dodgers preview. I very much recommend it.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I can't imagine you doing something snarky.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah, and I actually give praise to Andrew Friedman, which
I'm not inclined to do, but I kind of had
to give him a little bit of praise. Now. I
don't know what Andrew Friedman was doing in the year
two thousand, but I do know that while Mike Piazza
was getting a bat thrown at him, and it was
probably listening to this and a discman on the way
(11:57):
to the game. Oh yeah, game changer.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
The solid.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Has hip hop ever been the same since?
Speaker 1 (12:17):
No No No is the parallel? Is he Luca or
is he Larry Bird by Larry Bird?
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Larry Bird?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, and I think kind of like Larry Bird like you. Now,
when we talk about all time great players, so many
people don't mention Larry Bird. Laryerdhould absolutely mentioned the greatest
players of all time. I think Eminem probably doesn't get
mentioned enough in the greatest rappers of all time.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
By the way, the term stan that I had actually
originated with an Eminem song. I have one more sports one.
That was the first Kobe Shack film Lakers Championship. It
was called first year with the Lakers, and it was
a rather dramatic set of circumstances. Shaq was the MVP.
They took the league by storm, had the best record
in the league, had to go to a deciding fifth
(13:11):
game in the opening round of Sacramento, nearly blew a
three to one lead in the conference finals, had to
come up with that epic comeback in Game seven against
the Blazers, featuring the Kobe to Shack epic unforgettable dunk
at the end of Game seven. And then they go
to the finals against Larry Bird, Reggie Miller and the Pacers.
Kobe sprains's ankle in Game two, comes back with an
(13:33):
iconic performance in Game four and overtime after Shack fouls out,
and then they win the series and six, and it
was the first of the three straight championships.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
And that's don't call it a comeback, thirs, don't call
it a throwback. They're sorry. I get the song in
my head. Don't call it.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
A don't call it a throwback. Thursday. Fox Sports Radio

Speaker 1 (14:10):
If you were a college student like I was in
the year two thousand, you know that this song spent
twenty one weeks at number one. We Stug Gottlieb show
here on Fox Sports Radio. John Paul Morosi will join us.
I got workouts for tomorrow's World Series going on right
now at the Ravine. We'll get to that. But do
(14:32):
you guys know the Rams and Vikings have only been
five times in the last ten years. I mean, seems
like it it'd be a low number, but then half
the time, I don't know. It's weird. Both teams have
been successful on and off right. Obviously, the Rams have
been to two Super Bowls in the last ten years,
Vikings have not. But the Vikings have been kind of
a perennial I feel like a perennial playoff team. Tonight
(14:54):
we have obviously a game at so far it's gonna
be pretty cool. The issue, though, is that, man, even
though you have somebody from your coaching tree and Kevin
O'Connell coming in, who do the Rams have in terms
of personnel. They've just been decimated, decimated by injuries. Now
(15:16):
Cooper Cup is expected to play? Is that we do?
We have confirmation of that. Not gonna play. Let's go
to Isaac Low and Cron for a for an injury update. Isaac,
what do you got?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (15:30):
They officially activated Puka Nakua from injured reserve in fact,
just moments ago. So he is set to return tonight
after missing five games due to a sprained knee. Cooper
Cup not expected to be back just yet.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Okay, noted.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Noted, I don't know, no, no, I bet bet, I
beg your pardon. I read that wrong.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
No, he is.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
He is expected to be back. He has officially no
injury designation. Uh Nikouah was listed as questionable, but they
officially activated uh Nikua just a short time ago, and
Cup has no injury designation because he participated in full
practice this week.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
So I was right. Cooper Cups back now, Pooka Nukua
is back. Stan's the reason they're just gonna throw around
the yard. Those two dudes. You're just gonna throw it
around the yard. That said, obviously, not a super super
strong year at all for the Minnesota VIK for the
La Rams take on the Minnesota Vikings. I just we
(16:38):
we keep holding our breath for the Sam Donald thing
to collapse, and I don't know, a standalone game on
a Thursday night, plus the trade deadline looming, this becomes
a big one for him to show that he can
lead this team to the playoffs. Let's get you to
Isaac loun Khan before we get you some baseball with
Jpmrosi Hilo.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
All right, he dug on the Viking side. Multiple outlet's
reporting they are downgrading tight end TJ. Hockinson to out
for tonight's game against the Rams. Hawkinson towards ACL and
MCL in week sixteen of last season. He's now expected
to make his season debut next week against the Indianapolis Colts. Today,
Detroit Lions receiver Jamison Williams was officially suspended two games
(17:19):
for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing substances. Williams
then released a statement via his agent, reading quote, the
news came as a complete surprise that I am still
trying to understand unquote. The Miami Dolphins added receiver Tyreek
Hill to their injury report today. He was listed as
a limited participant in practice due to a foot injury.
(17:40):
Washington Commander's quarterback Jade Daniels did not practice today because
of a rib injury sustained to the last week's win
over Carolina. Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said
newly acquired receiver DeAndre Hopkins could make his debut as
early as this Sunday's game at Las Vegas and Carolina
Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton did not practice today because of
a brained right thumb that he sustained in a car
(18:02):
accident on Tuesday. Doug back to you, all.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Right, thank you so much. I love It's Doug Gottlieb Show,
Fox Sports Radio. Let's welcome in our Fox Sports Radio.
MLB insider John Paul J. P. Mer Rossi joins us
in the Doug Gotlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio. I've
made the case, okay. I'm I'm a longtime baseball fan.
I'm not you, obviously, I'm not Jay stew I go
(18:27):
to a couple of games a year. I have some
some some of my friend's sons are playing. I know
people in front offices. I love baseball. Baseball has been
really good the past couple of years. The rule changes
have made it a better and a better watch, but
none of that matters if some non you know people
like me don't watch in the world in the biggest game?
(18:48):
How big do you think the fact that we have
Yankees and Dodgers in the World Series is for the
overall health of the sport?
Speaker 7 (18:55):
Well, the first of all, happy World Series, and second
of all, I really appreciate the way that you laid
out the question because it's not just now a time
and an occasion for the Dodgers and Yankees to face
each other, but they're facing each other at a time
where the game itself and the product is the best
version that it's been in a while. And I think
(19:16):
in that respect, it's really a unique opportunity for the
sports to showcase what it can do when the biggest
stars are involved and the product itself is also at
its peak. And so you've got Otani and Judge, one
of them is about to become a first time World
Series champion in his World Series debut, and there's going
(19:37):
to either be a parade in la which they really
couldn't have in twenty twenty, or there's going to be
a parade down the canyon of heroes in New York
and for American baseball fans and indeed fans around the
world who understand the impact of Otani and how many
people in Japan will be watching Games one and two
on weekend mornings at eight am and Tokyo. It's just
(20:00):
a it feels like, Doug, that there's going to be
a moment and the one thing I want to get
out in front of and caution everybody here, do not
get yourself twisted up in well, well, if it doesn't
have the same market share in Grand Rapids, Michigan that
it had for the Cardinals and Royals in eighty five,
then for some reason it's not as big. No, the
(20:21):
world is different. We've got all these different streaming services
and all these different channels, and the world is on
your phone in your pocket, and if you're getting the
right amount of impressions and whatever it is via social media,
I think the game is going to resonate. The idea
right now is a resonance and relevance, and Doug, what
you're talking about here is that baseball right now feels
(20:42):
as relevant as it has been in probably a couple decades.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I completely agree. Okay, let's talk about the matchup, I
mean Dodgers had to fight back against the Padres, and
I think it'd be an easy case to make that
the Padres probably, you know what, they're starting pitching. They
might have a better roster, but they did it with
incredible pitching, some with starters, but a lot with that bullpen.
What's the matchup likewise, matchup wise look like for the series, Well, I.
Speaker 7 (21:12):
Think a couple things stand out to me. Number one,
you're right, the Dodgers having to figure out their their
pitching and and I think progressively as the as the
month has gone along, they've gotten better and better at
managing what is a suboptimal set of starting pitching because
they don't have Glass now, they don't have Stone, they
don't have Kershaw, so that they're they're operating at a
(21:33):
diminished level. And yet they've still been good enough to
beat the Padres, who I thought were as completed a
team as there was to your point. And then the
Mets and what that was a very competitive and compelling
six game series, despite how many of the games were
lopsided within the overall set of games. But the Yankees
are a different challenge and one of the biggest reasons why,
Doug is the Yankees do not go outside the zone.
(21:55):
And that is I think that the biggest difference. The
Yankees are the most disciplined team in the playoffs in
terms of not chasing. And so if you want to
get Soto out and Judge out and Stanton out and
Glaber out and Rizzo, by and large, you got to
be in the zone. And if you're not going to
be in the zone, then you're gonna start walking guys.
(22:17):
And that was exactly what happened to the Guardians. Really
good pitching staff, but they walked too many batters and
that eventually stung them when there were two guys on
base when stand at that ball that still hasn't landed
yet somewhere in Ohio. And I think that to me, Dougs,
is what I'm seeing right now is is I think
the Yankees are a higher level of difficult at bat
that the Dodgers pitching staff. As great as they've been,
(22:39):
they have not encountered a team yet like this one.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Okay, the one thing about the Yankees that everybody tells
me is they are obnoxious with how they ride the
umpires for the strike zone. Right both them, and the
Dodgers really worked to count The Yankees are known in
the sport wrong by the way.
Speaker 7 (22:56):
JP, well, who, I guess what I'd say is this
a couple of things. Number one, Uh, we have the
benefit in our baseball media community of the great work
of John Boy. John Boy covers the Yankees very closely.
Aaron Boone happens to be someone who who who is
not bashful about about telling the umpires what's going on.
(23:16):
And there's a lot of cameras there. I tend to
think that there are probably other managers who say about
as much as Aaron, but there aren't quite as many
cameras aimed at the other twenty nine managers, and Aaron,
I think has become somewhat famous, so there's probably some
truth to it, but the perception I think is also
fed into that that rap a little bit. But to
your point, Doug, it's going to be interesting because now
(23:38):
now all the thoughts about well MLB wants the quote
unquote that the Yankees and Dodges with some people have said, well,
guess what they got it now. So so at this
point in time, I don't want to hear anybody from
any markets saying well, the fingers being put up the
scale for this team or the other. No, the matchup
is there. It's the one that a lot of people
(23:58):
wanted to see. You're gonna to get it, and and
at this point in time, I think everybody's just thrilled
that it's a it's a really compelling matchup.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Okay, But I wanted to get to the fact the
the automated strike zone, which Manfred said, hey, you know,
sometime in the next four years, what are we waiting for?
Minor leagues? Has it? It works? Works really well? What
are we waiting for?
Speaker 7 (24:24):
I think a couple of things are are important here
and and usually whenever there's a hold up in something
like this where to your point, the technology exists, but
there are two really big negotiations that have to be
handled here. One is the next CVA with the players,
and one is the next CVA with the umpires. And
and that's why you can't just snap your fingers and
boom put the technology out there. It's some technology you can,
(24:47):
but this is this is now I think fundamentally altering
the just the modality of of what the umpire is doing.
And so it's not quite a ready made microwavable fix
where changes everything immediately. It's going to take a little
bit more time, I think because of the CBA piece
and also the time of game piece. And by the way,
(25:09):
I'm a supporter of this, of the challenge system, by
which you're not gonna have every single pitch that's done
by the automated ball strike system, but rather the challenge.
If there's a ball that is like two balls with
outside that gets called a strike, the hitter taps his helmet,
the review happened, it takes ten seconds, and then all
of a sudden you're back in the count rolling again.
(25:31):
That system is better than every pitch being called, in
my opinion, because if you called every pitch, you would
take out I think a lot of the human element,
not just for the umpire, but for the pitcher, for
the catcher, for the batter. That's a beautiful part of
the game. I don't think I want to give all
of it over the computers, but the big mistakes, yes,
I do support that, and I think eventually does that's
(25:51):
where baseball is going to go.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Stut Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. John Paul
Morosi is our guest. Okay, obviously we know the top headliners.
We kind of did this a little bit earlier on
the show. Who's the guy we're not talking about effects
the series.
Speaker 7 (26:09):
The most, So a couple guys. I'll mention Number one
on the Yankee side of things, Luke Weaver, who had
one major league offer last offseason. It was from the
New York Yankees to be a depth starter the Yankees.
When spring training starter, they thought he was going to
be probably and this is an honest assessment from the Yankees,
they thought he was their seventh or eighth starters. They
(26:30):
thought he was going to be a triple A or insurance.
The coal injury happened, obviously, but that was not what
their role was. They didn't think he was going to
be closing, closing out to the American League pennant clinching game.
So Luke Weaver changes fastball grip, became a different guy,
and all of a sudden, now he's the best closer
they've had in New York in a long time. And
(26:50):
then Holmes is better now earlier in the game. So
I think that's on the Yankee side of things. Glaber Torres,
by the way, I think it's been overshadowed a bit
by the other superstars. There no no question, excellent postseasons,
excellent postseasons. And then on the Dodger side, two guys
on the offensive side, Tommy Edmund NLCS MVP. I still
feel like he hasn't gotten quite the do that he
deserves because he can bouncer on the field for you
(27:10):
and being above average defender at multiple positions. And then
Key K Hernandez, who likes stand up for the Yankees
is just playing better in the month of October, so
you've got all ready to cast the stars. And then
guys like Edmund and Key K and John Carlow and
Weaver who seemed to be elevating their game. So it
is going to be I believe a world series for
the Ages.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Stuck Ottleab show here on Fox Sports Trader. That's the
voice of John Paul Morosi. Of course, he's our Major
League Baseball insider and an MLB Network reporter. Enjoy the series.
We'll talk very very soon.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Thanks Ma, our guests, Doug, happy world here in my
friend all the best few as well as we is
starting with basketball season two. Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Yeah, you're your Wolverring's look very very good by the
way I mean, and really better.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
I saw a big time, a big time committed for
next year as well. Dusky's doing work, so good stuff there.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Dusty is doing a great great job. They blew out
oak and in Uh in their scrimmage, I believe, or
maybe the exhibition game just to start a thinking with
was a scrimmage charity scrimmage, if you will. And Oakland's good.
Just Michigan's really really good. Thanks John, John. John of
course always gives us our our Michigan update. Ja Jay
(28:18):
stew if I were to ask you, if are to
ask you, okay, because you've been pretty much off with
most every prediction and and you know you can own
it as if you weren't. But most of the thing
you obviously part of it is you'r such a curmudgeon.
Now the Dodgers finally get to the World Series, what
to you is that is the biggest thing? And I
(28:39):
know it's hard, like previewing stuff is dumb, But as
a as somebody who watches like every Dodger game, what's
the biggest thing you're looking for?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
And let's clarify, previewing stuff is not dumb. Predicting stuff
is dumb. There's a there's a distinct difference in my mind.
I think predicting is lazy. Radio previewing. I liked, I
liked U. Let me give you one thing that I'm
thinking about, and I am. I am optimistic about this series.
It's so rare that I go into a series with
(29:08):
my Dodgers feeling optimistic. It just seems like everything has
kind of gone our way since Game three of the
LEDs and then what I'm about to say there is
there's almost like a cosmic intrusion into my optimism. Losing
(29:29):
the great Fernando Alinzuela this week is very sad, rip Fernando.
But there's there's a way that I think this is
going to work for the Dodgers in a cosmic way.
You could wear number thirty four on their sleeves. Fernando
Velinzuela pitched in the last World Series that the Dodgers
(29:50):
had against the Yankees in nineteen eighty one. That was
the year of Fernando Mania. There are so many things
kind of working here from like a math standpoint and
a cosmic standpoint that I really do think that, you know,
not that the Dodgers need any more motivation. But this
could work for the Dodgers. I really do think so.
So not only do I like the matchup and the
(30:11):
way the bullpen's pitching, I just think that there's something
maybe metaphysical going on here too.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Really, do you guys buy that, Isaac? You buy the
metaphysical like there's something greater at work. The gods of
karma are coming.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Together for the Yeah, I would add Vince Scully to that.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
I mean, what about Vin Scully? You have a sombrero.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Throw it to the guy.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
That's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Baby, we don't understand what does that have to do
with him saying Fernando just died.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
Well, first of all, Vin was the English language soundtrack
of Fernandomania. He delivered that famous when he pitched a
no hitter in nineteen ninety And remember I think it
was the either the twenty seventeen or twenty eighteen World Series.
They did that thing where Vin went out to the
(31:11):
mound to throw out the first pitch, then pretended to
injure his shoulder, so he called Fernando out to the mound.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
To relieve him. So he absolutely plays him with the karma.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Feels like I reached semi, what do you think.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I didn't say, oh, are you reacting to his I
will say this. I think they're emotionally more charged for
this world series. I think Shohey makes all of these
guys step up their game. I mean, you have like
a stud player like everyone else just wants to match
his greatness.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
So that's the thing I think.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Yeah, I think there is some emotional The Fernando stuff
will be kind of an emotional motive for them. I
don't know if it goes into the cosmos, but there
is something palpable at play here. It's not just the
guys on the roster. There's something. There's something else for
the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
This is the Doug Outlip Show on Fox Sports Radio.
Coming up next live from the Tyreck dot Com Studios.
Details about the ped suspension from one of the Detroit
Lions wide receivers. That's up coming next, but first on
the DraftKings sportsbook gap. Right now, the Vikings are giving
giving two and a half points to the Rams with
a total of forty seven total forty seven. It's indoors.
(32:23):
You have two high powered offenses win healthy and the
Rams are now healthy. I don't think the Rams defense
is particularly good. I think the Vikings win and cover,
so I take the Vikings even though they're giving two
and a half. But the same game parlay from DraftKings
to me is Vikings on the road. Give me the
Vikings plus two and a half and the over Vikings
(32:45):
to the over.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Doug
Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on

we wrap it up by getting to so many of
(33:17):
the topics that everyone else is talking about, all condensed
in one quick little segment called the Press.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
The Press?
Speaker 1 (33:32):
What do you got there? Isac alone? Crime?
Speaker 2 (33:33):
All right?
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Doug Today. Detroit Lions receiver Jamison Williams was officially suspended
two games for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing substances.
He released a statement after that news broke via his agent,
reading quote, the news came as a complete surprise that
I'm still trying to understand. I don't take supplements or vitamins,
and I'm overly cautious about even taking over the counter medicine,
(33:56):
and no time have I ever taken anything in an
attempt to cheat. I under that I'm responsible for everything
that goes into my body, and I have to take
accountability in this instance.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
Unquote, here's my only issue with it. Okay, tell me
what you tested positive for so we can know what
it is and try and understand what the possible other
things you've taken are, Like I do. I want to
believe it, of course, but tell me what you test
the positive for.
Speaker 5 (34:24):
Right, So he would say, hey, this was the chemical,
and then it's found in this and this, and maybe
I think this, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Yeah, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
We have some news actually just breaking with multiple outlets
reporting it, and it's kind of complicated. So I'll try
and I'll try and go a little slowly here. It's
been reported by multiple outlets that a former member of
the Los Angeles Clippers training staff is suing the team
in La County Superior Court for wrongful termination, alleging that
(34:55):
he was fired after complaining that Kawhi Leonard was being
subjected to to quote, unsafe and illegal treatment for injuries.
The lawsuit also accused the Clippers of tampering before signing
Leonard in twenty nineteen, allegedly beginning as early as twenty seventeen.
Speaker 7 (35:13):
Now.
Speaker 5 (35:13):
The individual filing the suit in person, by the name
of Randy Shelton, was previously Leonard's strength and conditioning coach
at San Diego State. The Clippers said in a statement, quote,
mister Shelton's claims were investigated and found to be without merit.
We honored mister Shelton's employment contract and paid him in full.
(35:34):
This lawsuit is a belated attempt to shape down the
Clippers based on accusations that mister Shelton should know are
false unquote. Again, multiple outlets just reporting this story.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Well, we'll see, I mean, because obviously, you know, if
the Clippers want to make it go away, they can
make it go away with a check. But if we
have full disclosure, we'll find out.
Speaker 5 (35:57):
All righty Thursday night football coming up tonight. The Los
Angeles Rams officially activating receiver Puka Nakua from injured reserve,
so he's set to return tonight against the Vikings after
missing five games with the spring name multiple outlets. Meanwhile
reporting Vikings downgrading tight end TJ. Hawkinson to out for
Tonight's game. He is now expected to make his season
(36:18):
debut next week against the Colts after tearing his ACL
and MCL late last season.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
M Internsson interesting, I mean TJ. Hawkinson is obviously a
big pass catching target. I wonder how effective will be
though it does feel like there's been a lot of
Achilles tears. By the way, have you got that?
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Feel so way? I just anyway, that's just a side note.
What has he got? I love?
Speaker 5 (36:45):
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said today that
newly acquired receiver DeAndre Hopkins could make his Chief's debut
as early as this Sunday in their game on the
road against the Raiders in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
Yeah, I mean, I think I think the big thing
is he's a possession guy now, doesn't have great speed,
always been a big target. But can he fit in
with the Chiefs without having a ton of knowledge of
their system? Now? The one thing about the Chiefs is
that I don't know how much you guys have kind
of researched this. They don't run a lot of plays now.
(37:22):
They run a ton of different formations in motion, and
to that you got to you gotta gotta figure that
they got quick. But the actual route, the route tree
and routes they run not super complex, is what I've
been told.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
Maybe other NFL team should take the hints about and
that's one of the reasons that they're so successful.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
They keep well.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
There's been lots of other Andy Reid assistants hired. None
have seen much success, correct, So it kind of helps
when you have Andy Reid and Pat Mahlmes.
Speaker 5 (37:53):
The Miami Dolphins added receiver Tyreek Hill to their injury
report today. He was listed as a limited parts been
in practice today because of a foot injury to a
tongue of by Loam meanwhile, was listed as a full
participant in practice today for the Miami Dolphins as they
get ready for this weekend's home game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
I've been told Pucas that that too is going to play.
That is not confirmed that it is not from any
it's from an outside of the building source, but I
was told he's gonna play always the plan going to
play this weekend.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
And our final item on this edition of the press,
Carolina Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton did not practice today because
of the spring right thumb that he sustained on Tuesday
in a car accident.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
Of course, we're going to get a chance to see
Bryce Young play in his stead. Great opportunity for Bryce
Young to kind of get some of the bad taste
out of everybody's mouth after how he'd been playing before
he got sat down. And then obviously the changes Andy
Dalton's taken over.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
And that is this edition of the press. They get
out there and press.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
That was the press, all right, so we can document this.
It's not an official game. It is the first game
in front of a crowd and against a I think
a very very good and very well coached Saint Norbert's
team like St. Norbert's really Saint Norbert's Division III. They
win their league well the last three years they win
twenty one games a year, and coach Gresh is really good.
(39:23):
He played at Green Bay. They played the same style
that Dick Bennett Tony Bennett coached and played right slow methodical,
really really efficient, and we want to play the opposite
