What Alex Rodriguez is saying as an analyst when there's
(01:03):
an obvious amount of bitterness with management with the Yankees,
I think it's a fair question. It's a fair question.
We'll get to all that this hour. But before we
get to that, let's do something we do every Thursday.
We don't call it a throwback.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Don't call it a throwback. Throw Back Thursday, Jay Stu,
Thank you, Doug.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I'll take that from here.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I'll take it from here. Thank you, Doug.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
I want you all here in the studio and our
listeners to focus on one year. What were you doing
in nineteen ninety three? Don't call it a throwback? Thursday
is going to focus on the sports here of nineteen
ninety three. Why you ask? Because October of nineteen ninety three,
twenty or was it thirty two years ago? Thirty two
(01:55):
years ago? Forty two? What's the mout there?
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Guys?
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Anyways, thirty years ago, the Toronto Boue Jays were winning
their last World Series title, and as they advanced to
the ALCS yesterday by beating the Yankees, I wanted to
focus on the ninety three bou Jay team because I
personally was a fan of this team. They were so
much fun to watch. A mid season trade, Bot added
(02:20):
Ricky Henderson to a lineup that already featured Paul Malader
Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar Hall of Famer Joe Carter
delivered us the great moment at the end of the series,
John Olrude Devon White, Oh my goodness, and it keeps
going with the pitching staff. What an amazing team to
(02:40):
win back to back titles. They had won their first
year the year before they beat the Phillies in six games.
Mitch Williams delivered the walkoff shot from Joe Carter the
ninety three series. What a team, what a memory. And
congratulations to the Toronto Boujays for advancing into the ALCS.
Good luck to them and all you people in Canada.
(03:02):
Dan Byer, what do you remember most from nineteen ninety
three in sports?
Speaker 6 (03:06):
I remember hating those Toronto Blue Jays. There was a
period of time where they just were not like because
they were so good with the back to back World Series.
The Blue Jays were a team that Yan just did
did not like at all, rooted against Toronto Brewers were
in the American League at that time and would battle
them in the American League East. But I switched to football.
(03:28):
Transformative year in football because it was a year where
I think maybe the biggest news happened prior to the season,
and that was Reggie White signing with the Green Bay Packers.
And then also that year Marcus Allen became a member
of the Kansas City Chiefs. Yes, and had a stellar
(03:50):
career with the Chiefs, but back then unheard of. We
know the greatness that Reggie White then had in Green
Bay delivering them a Super Bowl few years later, but
it really changed the NFL. So nineteen ninety three stands
out to me football wise, for nothing that happened on
the field, it's what happened off of it.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
College football. That was Florida State. They finally went undefeated,
finally won a national championship. Their quarterback was also a
basketball star, Charlie Ward. Fast break on turf, that's what
they called it. That's what they called it. They did
lose a game that year. It was also kind of
an interesting, interesting kind of side note to it, right
(04:34):
as they didn't they lose the Notre Dame. They lost
the Notre Dame was called the game of the century
and then turn around and beat Florida, Nebraska beat Oklahoma
and you know Notre Dame had After Notre Dame beat
Florida State, I think they lost to Boston College on
(04:54):
a less second field goal when they lost to Boston College.
Here's the personal side note. The kicker for Boston College
actually built my house when I was in Connecticut. That
was like his interesting thing. Yeah, like, hey, what'd you
when'd you go to college? Boston College? Like how do
I know your name? I keep the field goal to
beat there to day And by the way, back then
Boston College is actually pretty good.
Speaker 6 (05:14):
So yeah, BC was there.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
There.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
There was a time when BC was was football for sure.
Obviously Doug Flutie.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
David Gordon did he major in carpentry. No, he just
did it as like his career not carpentry.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Was like he wittled it. He was like the he
was the contract engineering.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
Sure, somebody like that.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
The structural engineering nineteen ninety three was was heartbreak for
me in college football. And it was also the emergence
of Wisconsin under Barry Alvarez. None of my friends growing
up and cared about Wisconsin football. Yes, and then all
of a sudden they become good and they're in the
thick of it with Ohio State in trying to go
(05:59):
for a Big Ten championship. They actually tied at Camp
Randall Stadium a game between Ohio State and Wisconsin Marlon
Kerner blocked a field goal that could have won it
four Wisconsin. They ended a tie. All Ohio State needed
to do was beat Michigan the final week of the
season they would go to the Rose Bowl. That didn't happen,
and then Wisconsin ended up going to Rose Bowl to
(06:20):
the Rose Bowl because they beat Michigan State in Tokyo, Japan.
So that's what happened. In nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Ninety three, the Bulls beat the Suns in the NBA Finals.
What was interesting about that one was the Bulls actually
finished three to zero on the road in that series.
They won the first two games on the road, came
back home and the Suns won in triple overtime. Then
the Suns won Game four as well, and excuse me,
(06:58):
the Bulls won Game four, Suns won Game five, and
that was the famous John Packson on a kickout from
I think Horace Grant jump shot to win the game
that ended up winning the series. And I think Jordan
had thirty three, but it was John Packson who hit
(07:19):
the shot. And that was Charles Barkley. Charles Parker was
the MVP that you're in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Yeah, and then a month later the death of James R. Jordan,
Michael Jordan's father, and then three months later or two
months later, the retirement shocking the world. At age thirty,
Michael Jordan calls it quits for the first time, coming
off of three straight NBA titles. Lots of speculation as
(07:46):
to why he did that. And they kind of danced
around it in the last dance get it, they danced
around it, shade around this.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I think he sort of boogied sat break Dance. Unbelievable
year in movies, Jurassic Park, the first of what is
it like twenty Jurassic Parks now Schindler's List, Sleepless in Seattle,
The Sandlot, Rudy Home Alone, two, Falling Down.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Oh with Michael Douglas. Yeah, that is one of my
favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Tombstone all time. Tombstone is on anybody's list of favorite
Westerns of all time. A bronx tail. Great scene in
a bronx tail to start the movie, right, how you
know she's a keeper? Good one, Missus Doubtfire. Also nineteen
ninety three, The Firm, The Firm, which is a novel
(08:47):
that became John Grisham, Right, that was John Grisham's first
I think bestseller that became a movie as well, Tom Cruise,
and Tom Cruise was a star in a Menace to Society?
Speaker 6 (08:59):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Cool Runnings was that year? Unbelievable, Carlitos way.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Another one, just one after another, all hits classics.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Listen, I mean, what were they listening to when they
were when they were playing on the Sony Walk.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
Then I'm just.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Kind of going out of order here. But because I
love the golf, I like getting in the golf.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
And Sam and something else.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
I was just gonna say, you know, I think Iowans
had a reason to get to the movie theater to
kind of escape their lives, because there was a devastating
flood in nineteen ninety three in the state of Iowa
called the Great Flood of ninety three. I was looking
at a picture just now of Bill Clinton and Davenport
surveying the damage.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
And you know what did not cause that flood.
Speaker 7 (09:46):
He did not.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
He did not not with that woman.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
And you know, the Iowa football team could not get
people's spirits up either. They went six and six, lost
to cal and the Amal Bowl, but their quarterback was
current NBC broadcast Paul burmeister By as a.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Good friend of mine. We lived together in wes We
lived near each other in Westport, Connecticut.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
I love Paul and I think his broadcasting career is
you know, longer and more successful than maybe his playing
days at iwill, but we do claim him as one
of our own.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
Sure what happened in golf, Dan, Well, it's funny you ask,
because it was a unique year. There may have been
a flood of tears from Greg Norman. Both got a
flood joke in their happy tears and sad tears. Lost
in a playoff to Paul Aisinger at the PGA Championship,
but it was maybe landed a little softer because of
(10:38):
his win at the Open Championship in nineteen ninety three.
So Greg Norman getting his second and final career major.
You also had Lee Jansen winning the US Open and
one of our favorites, Bernhard Langer on his seconds in
nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
It's funny you bring up Paul Aaisinger. I saw him
interviewed right before that winning that major, and he was
listening to his.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Walkman, really walkman at the time.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Interesting, we said, and they said, what are you listening to?
Right now, Paul, and he's like the song that everybody's
listening to.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Oh yeah, this is still a jam. Huh, this is
what I call music. Nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Who he oop he whoop?
Speaker 4 (11:31):
There it is by Tag Team, Bad Team.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
What's a damn?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
For those who don't remember who Tag Team is? Cecil DC,
the Brain Supreme Glenn and Steve Rolin Gibson reached number
one on the charts for nineteen straight weeks, and of
course everybody remembers Woomdad is made the all fourteenth on
the all Time Greatest Jock Jams All Time list Jock
(11:58):
Jam Jock Jams.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Some of the good songs though, I mean, think about this, Okay,
Rump Shaker was that year. That's Wrex.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
That was a good song.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Nothing but a g thing, Doctor Dre, I will Always
love You, Whitney.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
Houston Bodyguard originally Jolly Parton, Who Is Good Spirits Good
by Janet Jackson.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
That is a great song. Putting Rump Shaker.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
By s w V. That's sisters with voices.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Amongst this group, and saying there were a bunch of
great songs is just the issue that.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
To Princess Spin Doctors that sounds like more your jam there,
Dan Buyer, your spin.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Doctor totally be further from the truth. Shows how little
you actually do know me, so that you would think
that I would like to spin doctors.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I'm messy with you, Dan, I'm mess.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
You don't like that song, Dan, I just don't love it.
I don't really it was overplayed. Yeah it's yeah, No,
he just doesn't.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Think it's that good a song, right, It's just not
your jam, not your type of song.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Yeah, like yeah, it's hippy, it's you know, yeah, I
guess it's catchy in a way.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
All that she Wants a sa Bass was that song.
That's one that still gets to play.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
That's one of Jason's favorites. All that she Wants is
another baby.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
All that she wants keep you locked in. Also ice Cube,
it was a good day nineteen ninety three good song.
So people have gone back and tracked exactly what day
ice Cube was talking about. That was a good day.
Have you guys ever seen that on social media?
Speaker 6 (13:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Wait, wait the Lakers beat the super Socks. Hold on,
we got to go back. There's actually people who have
pinpointed when he wrote that song.
Speaker 5 (13:46):
Is that where he messed around and got a triple double?
Is that the same song?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Okay, same one?
Speaker 5 (13:51):
Yeah, that's a good day.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
I think he needed a team with four syllables, right,
Like you wouldn't be like yeah, and you could beat
the Lakers beat the Utah Jazz Rocket. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Yeah, Jazz Detroit Pistons doesn't work. SuperSonics does.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
It's got to be like quick Lakers beat the Trailblazers,
like you got to string it out like that doesn't
it doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Doesn't work, it doesn't work at all. Anything else happened
to nineteen ninety.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Three, Home Improvement was the favorite TV show of people
watching on TV. Seinfeld was h in its earlier days.
Was ninety three was in its.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
Earlier Yeah, it was like nineteen ninety one, ninety eight,
ninety to ninety eight. Seinfeld was just getting popular because
the first season, I think with they were like on
the brink of cancelation and then they started to pick
up steam. They were in their heyday in ninety three.
Speaker 6 (14:53):
Seinfeld ran from July fifth, nineteen eighty nine to May fourteenth,
nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
Yeah, their prime at that point. I thought they started
ninety But to.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Dan's point, last week month had the eighth largest rated
h TV show of the year. The TV shows ahead
of it included Fraser Coach Grace, under Fire Coaches Good
Roseanne Seinfeld, Home Improvement Coach Hayden Fox based off of last.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Year the Rams were in were in in Orange County
that right before they moved to set Tracks.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, the Raiders and the Rams took off the same
season right later.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Is here in ninety three or ninety four, and that
is don't call it a come don't call it a
throwback Thursday.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
I don't even really work here.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Don't call it a throwback thack Thursday. Fox Sports Radio

Speaker 2 (16:02):
S Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio. It's so funny, Dan.
I heard this song Saturday. I was playing pick a
ball with my son in Oklahoma in a place called
the Chicken and Pickle, and I whooped him twice. Whooped
the boy twice, actually three games. I beat him all
three games, I think, And it was one of those
(16:24):
This is a great like dad moment. You're gonna have
with Brody when he gets older. My Hayes is sixteen.
And I said, who's better pickleball?
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Me or you?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
He's like, I am. I said, really, I just beat
you twice a row. Who's better? He said, I am.
I said, you're right, you are who won the games
you did? I said, do you know why? He said,
Why is because I'm just smarter than you. I have
more experience and smarter and that's why I beat you,
and I will always beat you because I'm always going
to be smarter than you. Right this little trash talk
(16:53):
dad and son anyway, that's always playing on the background.
It was just funny then, and we're doing nineteen ninety three.
Then it pops up. So so, Shor Sanders has not
been named backup quarterback yet yet with the Cleveland Browns.
We don't know, right they can have two rookies whatever.
But he was allowed to speak to the media. This
is the first time he's been able to speak to
the media since he did the mind thing, going back
(17:16):
a week ago. Of course, since then, they've lost another game,
and then with Dylan Gabriel starting, Dylan Gabriel performed pretty
well and then they trade away Joe Flacco to their rival,
the Cincinnati Bengals, desperately need of a quarterback. Here is
Shador having exchange with Beat reporters earlier today.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
We're gonna make sure we do everything we shouldn't to
make sure doing ready for the game. So you know
whatever that means. So each and every day, even when
Joe was the start of everything, you know, take prepare
the right way and be ready to know that you
could get out there any point in time. So I'm
overly confident within myself. So I know when I first
got here, you know I'm ready to play. But you know,
this up to the coaches and you know, whatever decision
(17:55):
you know, they make them that I'm fine.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
With better right. It's like it's like if we would
have done that a while back, we'd be so much
better off. Does he want to be out there? He
answered the question yes. Does he think he's ready to
be out there? He said, he's over confident. Probably not
the right way to say it, but again take it
with a grain of salt. And what I think he
(18:18):
meant to say, I'm confident, sure, right, Like I'm not
going to parse his words and say, wow, you use
this word like let's not be those guys. But he
did say, like, look, our job is to get Dylan
Gabriel ready and make sure he's ready, and then be
ready yourself. Great. The question is did he not know
(18:39):
he was supposed to do that all along? Right, it's
not like he's never been around an NFL team, or
been around an NFL quarterback, or been around an NFL
locker room. That's how you're supposed to do it. Not
that hard, and there's no negatives. He didn't diminish himself,
(19:05):
he didn't fall on the sword. He didn't act like
he's some inferior dude. He just said, hey, Dylan's a starter.
I'm fine with that. That's their decision. I'm going to
get him ready. I'm gonna be ready myself. I'm confident
that if called upon, I can be ready.
Speaker 6 (19:22):
I also wonder, Doug if the delay now My thoughts
on Shud or maybe not being the backup quarterback had
a lot of other factors with it. Mainly they just
didn't think that he was worthy enough to be that
guy last week didn't. They had Joe Flaccos as the
backup at that point, so I was curious on what
(19:45):
changed and if he would have had a miming answer
or something that was not necessarily coach speak or quarterback
speak however you want to say it, If he didn't
say something that was just within the team, I think
that would give Kevin Stefanski every reason then to have
Bailey Zappy be the backup quarterback this week. But maybe
(20:08):
there's an understanding for Shador on what he learned last
week and what he learned this week, and now Kevin
Stefanski does have a decision, and I think that if
if Shador would have handled things like he's handled it
previously in other interactions with the media, he would have
made the decision really easy for Kevin Stefanski for week six.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
We we we agree. But by the way, here's a question, guys, Now,
how many guys have YouTube TV?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Sam?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
You get YouTube TV?
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Chase dou Yep?
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Remember I was uh.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
The first right, Yeah, you're you're you're old school before
I even knew what YouTube was. Buyer Nope, Okay, so
a little bit of that your YouTube TV guy. You're
probably gonna get a little bit of pass on this one.
But you got the potential. You got three games potentially
going on at once, potentially right, Phillies and Dodgers. It's
(21:11):
a three gay three hours. Apartment's close at the end
of that game, then you at the start of Brewers
and Cubs, and you have NFL football. So if it's
coming down the wire, I know where Jay stew is, right,
he's Dodgers Phillies above all else. Let's say you get
(21:33):
to eight fifteen, eight twenty and Eagles Giants. Giants have
like a two touchdown lead, they get up early. Again,
I'm giving you a possibility here, Cubs, Brewers close, and
Dodgers Phillies in the late innings close. Buyer, do you
absolutely go to baseball or do you go football?
Speaker 6 (21:55):
I'll probably set up a two TV scenario, which I
do have the ability to do, uh in our house
with that, But if I was leaning on focusing on
one more than the other, it would probably be baseball
while focusing on the Philadelphia Eagles when they have the football.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Okay, there's some fantasy to that.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Sammy.
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Well, I'd have to have a separate TV to watch
the Thursday night game, right, because it's on Prime. I
have just one team, you, right, I have just the
one TV. And here's Milesome. I'll just continue to harp
on this with YouTube TV. Last night, I wanted to
watch the end of Yankees Blue Jays and the start
of Dodgers Phillies and I could not, and even in
(22:45):
because they offer, well, okay, you could. I don't know
what's wrong if I have some kind of outdated YouTube TV.
But they did not offer me multiview of watching those
two MLB games. And I find this to be ridiculous, Like, yeah,
go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Is it location based?
Speaker 5 (22:59):
I really I don't understand because they'll say, here's multiview
and you can watch like these two weather channels, you
can watch these four random it's always the same set.
Speaker 4 (23:07):
So I have to okay, yeah, I just need to
correct the record here. Yeah, it does sound like you
have an outdated aided TV. Why would we be outdated
because now we could pick our we could pick our
have that option.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
I have the option every night to pick our multiview.
You pick, you customize it every single game.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
It gives you the option and you customize, So you're outdated.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
I don't. I don't.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
It doesn't update on its own. I'm confused. I would
think that it would just like be there for you,
So I just don't I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
We need to schedule like a.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
Intervention, like a geek geek squad coming over my house.
I'll look into it, but I'm I guess I'm yeah.
Maybe I have an old uh version of YouTube TV,
but I thought those were updating on their own and
uh listen to YouTube TV if you're listening right now.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
I will look into this.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
I'm not blaming you. Jason has an up to date
information here.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I think that I think I can find one thing
we can all agree on. And maybe I'm wrong. Phillies
blue uniforms are amazing, Yes, and I'm asking I'm looking
at you our our uniform connoisseur Dan Byer, like are
you I'm actually asking for.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
Your verbal verbal approval.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Yes, we're even visual here on YouTube.
Speaker 6 (24:17):
Yeah, nodded my head. Yeah, you're doing some work as well,
but but look.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Like you were doing some work. Jason. Where are you
on the Phillies blue uniforms?
Speaker 4 (24:28):
I wecome. Yeah, it's kind of a reminisce about the
good old days with Mike Schmidt.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Yeah, I mean, like you're watching last night Dodgers have
been classic, same Dodger uniforms forever and then the Phillies
You're going back to Mike Schmidt era. Like, wow, that's awesome.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
Don't get it twisted, though. The reason that those blues
work so well is because of the maroon. Yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
But maroon is man, I'm glad you pointed that out. Okay,
so I had this obviously. I'm in Green Bay. Our
colors are green and white. He's black. We used to
have a little red. They've they've gone away with the red.
We're gonna come back to the red here in coming years.
But the point is that maroon works as an accent color, right,
as an accent color. Like I don't like USC's maroon uniforms.
(25:14):
I'm trying to think redskins. But when when the maroon
is the number and the blue is the color.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
It pops.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
It's great. It's very very unique. It's a lot like brown.
Speaker 5 (25:25):
Are you are you giving us your maroon five right now?
This list called maroon five? Nice?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Oh you're so sweet, You're like sugar. Anyway, do you guys.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Think of this idea? This is consistent with the conversation
you guys are having. Did you hear Kyle Brandt's idea. No,
he said that Throwback Thursday should be the one night
NFL teams where where the throwbacks?
Speaker 5 (25:52):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Both teams do it every Thursday night. Throwback Thursday.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, there's a couple of weeks ago when the Packers
playing thres and they wore their iced out uniforms. I
forget or they played it, didn't wear that. It was
second game of the year, right Commanders, huh commanders, Yeah,
and they just wear regular uniforms like struggle with that one.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Well, that's the whole deal with the rival everything. I
don't mind Kyle Brandt's idea, but I the more that
you can wear it, the better. So the more that
we could see Bucko Bruce or the Seahawks and in
their uniforms that they wore this past weekend, I think
the better. Limiting it to just Thursday night would not
be enough for me. But I don't understand why one
(26:34):
team has a rivalry uniform and then the other team doesn't.
It makes zero sense to me. I don't know why
the Bills would wear their rivalry uniforms and the Patriots
would wear a normal uniform. And now we've seen this
in a couple of games the Seahawks. Same thing with
the Cardinals, and the Cardinals were theirs, Like, it doesn't
(26:56):
make any sense. The Dolphins were their rivalry union forms
all black, and the Jets come in with their normal uniforms.
That doesn't make sense. And I know what you're gonna
say is, well, the rivalry uniforms can't be the same color,
and then don't make them the same color. We've had
color on color games before. You speaking that voice, Hey,
I think that's my idiot on social media voice saying
(27:19):
that's okay.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I get acused of anytime I'm speaking of the about
a woman in an entertaining voice. It sounds like my mom,
so that the same way she's your mom.
Speaker 6 (27:27):
Well, you know, but that doesn't make sense to me.
But even to take it back to the Phillies, the
era in Major League Baseball in the nineteen eighties when
so many teams were light blue. The Brewers did, the
Rangers did, the Royals did, the Blue Jays did, the
Phillies did. Like all of these teams had an alternative,
(27:48):
baby blue. The Twins did. And if you were to
lay those out, some work and some don't. And the
Phillies really does, because I think of that of that color.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Okay, let's get to what was said last night on TV.
Yankees wearing their classic Yankee pinstrip uniforms. Thankfully those haven't
been adjusted, but they were beaten by the Blue Jays,
another one of those teams that had worn baby blue.
They thank you. It kind of all comes back full circle.
So after the game, Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter did
(28:25):
a postgame moratry. A month the Yankees season, take a.
Speaker 8 (28:28):
Listen, Aaron's been very classic. We've all been very consistent
with that. Honestly, from the entire organization, he's the one
guy with Circle that has least to be to blame.
I mean, he's got a lot of talent, but for
me personally, one of the worst construction of a roster
I've ever seen. You have three left headed catchers, you
have five dhs, you have a first basement in and out.
(28:51):
It's just a very very difficult hand for boone. And honestly,
they were exposed against a much better Jay's team.
Speaker 9 (28:58):
Yeah, I mean, look, Aaron said it, they got beat.
They got beat. You know, last year, you can sit
back and talk about the World Series in Game five
and you can say Yankees beat themselves in that particular game.
In this series, the Toronto Blue Jays proved that they
were a better team from top to bottom. They were
a better team.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Aaron did a good job.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
I mean, look, he's working with what he has to
work with, and he sticks up for his players. I
know he takes a lot of heat, but look, I'm
not saying it from any inside knowledge, but I'm pretty
sure Aaron's not the one that's calling every move that
they make throughout the game.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
All right, So that was two guys trying to take
the pressure off of Aaron Boone the possibility of being fired.
I guess my question is, and look, I actually believe
this to be true. Part of what Alex Rodriguez saying
is true. The Yankees have been built for a previous era,
right power, hitting, offense above defense. The Brewers are the
(29:59):
team most buil for this era. You can still play
small ball, you can hit home runs, and I believe
every one of their position players at some point in
time was a shortstop. They do actually, they draft and
want to acquire athleticism in the field because that's what's needed,
more so now in baseball than ever before. And I
(30:19):
don't think the Yankees are constructed that way, but it
does feel like Alex Rodriguez trying to extract some revenge
from Brian Cashman, which is weird obviously because he was
on the team Cashman brought him in, but remember he
was persona non grata and how it ended after the
second ped test was super super ugly. And then he
marched on over the wfan and went on air with
(30:41):
FRANCESSA and tried to tried to, you know, win over
the fans, which didn't work. It's just a really weird
thing when you know, he starts pointing out things, which
some of which are accurate, but it's like, okay, so
if you don't like having that many guys that can't
play the field, are you getting rid of Stanton? Are
(31:01):
you getting rid of Judge?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Which?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
What are you going to do?
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Arin?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
I mean, which, which one are you gonna do? Alex?
I get one of the one of those two you can't.
So some of those guys you're like saddled it Like
I got two prodigious power hitters, both are essentially dhs,
but only one can DH. And yeah, like what do
(31:25):
you do with Paul Goldschmit? Jay Stu, your thoughts on
the roster construction discussion.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
I think, I mean, this is a team that went
to the World Series last year, so I mean it's
it's a real weird one for me to say that
this is a drastically different team. I don't think it was.
I guess, uh, you're missing Won Soto, so I guess.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
That don't have Garrett Cole either.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Garrett Cole.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Yeah, and then and the starting pitching in the playoffs
was abysmal. Any of that, all that stuff may be true.
He didn't say anything about the starting pitching, and the
starting pitching was correct uffal right, Like, let's not get
it twisted, Okay. In Games one and two they gave
up twenty three runs combined. Twenty three runs combined. There
(32:17):
isn't a manager who can do anything about that. Twenty
three runs combined. I just like Alex is extracting revenge
on National TV. I don't think it necessarily matters in
that building, but it does matter in perception. This is
the Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Coming
(32:39):
up next. We lost a great and popular name in
the world of baseball. We'll discuss next.

Here's Dan Byer with the press.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
The press.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Hey Dan, Hey Doug, you got some NBA stuff because
the annual GM survey done by NBA dot Com is out.
That's gonna come up in a little bit. Yeah, that's
just a little bit. I do want to start out
with this story though. We've got baseball coming up in
an hour, the Phillies and Dodgers, then Brewers and Cubs.
Just after nine o'clock Eastern time, but Mike Greenwell died.
The former Red Sox outfielder spent his entire career in
(33:59):
Boston twelve years battled cancer sixty two years old. I
know it's a name that guys like our age remember fondly,
not only from playing but also in the height of
the baseball card era. I remember the Tops All Rookie team. Yes,
skat Gator Greenwell.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
I also remember him for one of the greatest video
games of all time was RBI Baseball. Right, and Mike
Greenwills was with the Red Sox and RBI Baseball.
Speaker 6 (34:31):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
He was also famously second in American League MVP voting
to Jose Canseco in eighty eight. So when now the
news came out and Conseco said, yeah, I was on
Royd's the entire season, there was a sentiment to give
the MVP to Mike Greenwell.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
What's crazy about it is right again, And I don't
wish poorly upon Jose Canseco. But a guy who openly
is a complete roid head and by the way, kind
of a complete disaster in life, he's fine right living
his life somewhere in Florida. He and his brother. I've
seen pictures totally juiced up, totally jacked right, Mike Greenwell
(35:13):
cancer dies early sixties.
Speaker 6 (35:16):
Yeah, sad news for sure. Lamar Jackson didn't practice today,
now that did. Kyler Murray and Brock Party not seen
at the opening of practice for the forty nine ers today.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
That's a lot backup quarterback city. Who's the backup in Arizona?
I don't even know.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Jacoby Brissette.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Oh, that's right, you said that. Why don't you go out,
Cob Brissette.
Speaker 6 (35:37):
He ended up having to play. It was on the
field for a short period of time against the Titans
because Kyler Murray had to leave the playing field. And yeah,
so Jacoby Brissette would get the starts in Indianapolis.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Said got the start for Tom Brady when Tom Brady
was suspended. They only got like one game or two.
Speaker 6 (35:56):
Games and Garoppolo got hurt. So that's why Brissette had
to start. But Jacoby Brisset also played for the colt
sets of the Cardinals play this weekend in Week six
in Indianapolis. All right, onto the GM poll. Eighty percent
of the gms across the NBA feel the Oklahoma City
Thunder will repeat as NBA champions in the twenty twenty
five twenty twenty six season.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
I think, what again, you have to remember Chet is
not there yet. If Chet takes a step this year,
I don't know how this team becomes sort of unstoppable.
I think they won early in their cycle and it's
just going to be about ego and injuries, whether or
not they can while they're still under all they can get.
(36:40):
All these guys under contract were like two years away
from them topping out financially to where some of the
other players will have to go.
Speaker 6 (36:48):
The Cavaliers and Nuggets received a couple of votes, as
did the Rockets and next. Last year, the Celtics were
picked by eighty three percent of the GMS to win
it all. That did not happen. As for your end VP,
the Kolyokich of the Nuggets sixty seven percent, an overwhelming
pick by the GMS. Luka Dancica the Lakers was second.
Shay Gilgess, Alexander the reigning MVP, third, Victor Wembin Yama
(37:12):
fourth in voting.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Wemby Wemby fourth. When was the last time you actually
watched a Wemby game? I haven't I haven't watched it
a long time.
Speaker 6 (37:19):
I'm well, he was also out, you know, for a
while with the blood clot issue, so you had you
had that.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
He looks like a made up character on two K.
He just does you ever seem like my son has
made up characters that are that tall on two K
And you're like, there's nobody looks like that in real life.
And then you're like, well, hold on, what about Wemby.
Speaker 6 (37:38):
Well, when asked on who the who you would start
a franchise with, eighty three percent said Victor wembin Yama,
up from last year when you said seventy seven percent
for wem Binyama. Sga and Jokic were the other two
receiving votes. Just some of the picks of the gms
in the NBA. And that is the press, get out
(38:00):
there and press.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
That was the press.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Okay, it's the Doug Gotlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio.

twenty minutes and how much can we by by stocking
What Alex Rodriguez is saying as an analyst when there's
(01:03):
an obvious amount of bitterness with management with the Yankees,
I think it's a fair question. It's a fair question.
We'll get to all that this hour. But before we
get to that, let's do something we do every Thursday.
We don't call it a throwback.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Don't call it a throwback. Throw Back Thursday, Jay Stu,
Thank you, Doug.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I'll take that from here.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I'll take it from here. Thank you, Doug.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
I want you all here in the studio and our
listeners to focus on one year. What were you doing
in nineteen ninety three? Don't call it a throwback? Thursday
is going to focus on the sports here of nineteen
ninety three. Why you ask? Because October of nineteen ninety three,
twenty or was it thirty two years ago? Thirty two
(01:55):
years ago? Forty two? What's the mout there?
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Guys?
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Anyways, thirty years ago, the Toronto Boue Jays were winning
their last World Series title, and as they advanced to
the ALCS yesterday by beating the Yankees, I wanted to
focus on the ninety three bou Jay team because I
personally was a fan of this team. They were so
much fun to watch. A mid season trade, Bot added
(02:20):
Ricky Henderson to a lineup that already featured Paul Malader
Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar Hall of Famer Joe Carter
delivered us the great moment at the end of the series,
John Olrude Devon White, Oh my goodness, and it keeps
going with the pitching staff. What an amazing team to
(02:40):
win back to back titles. They had won their first
year the year before they beat the Phillies in six games.
Mitch Williams delivered the walkoff shot from Joe Carter the
ninety three series. What a team, what a memory. And
congratulations to the Toronto Boujays for advancing into the ALCS.
Good luck to them and all you people in Canada.
(03:02):
Dan Byer, what do you remember most from nineteen ninety
three in sports?
Speaker 6 (03:06):
I remember hating those Toronto Blue Jays. There was a
period of time where they just were not like because
they were so good with the back to back World Series.
The Blue Jays were a team that Yan just did
did not like at all, rooted against Toronto Brewers were
in the American League at that time and would battle
them in the American League East. But I switched to football.
(03:28):
Transformative year in football because it was a year where
I think maybe the biggest news happened prior to the season,
and that was Reggie White signing with the Green Bay Packers.
And then also that year Marcus Allen became a member
of the Kansas City Chiefs. Yes, and had a stellar
(03:50):
career with the Chiefs, but back then unheard of. We
know the greatness that Reggie White then had in Green
Bay delivering them a Super Bowl few years later, but
it really changed the NFL. So nineteen ninety three stands
out to me football wise, for nothing that happened on
the field, it's what happened off of it.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
College football. That was Florida State. They finally went undefeated,
finally won a national championship. Their quarterback was also a
basketball star, Charlie Ward. Fast break on turf, that's what
they called it. That's what they called it. They did
lose a game that year. It was also kind of
an interesting, interesting kind of side note to it, right
(04:34):
as they didn't they lose the Notre Dame. They lost
the Notre Dame was called the game of the century
and then turn around and beat Florida, Nebraska beat Oklahoma
and you know Notre Dame had After Notre Dame beat
Florida State, I think they lost to Boston College on
(04:54):
a less second field goal when they lost to Boston College.
Here's the personal side note. The kicker for Boston College
actually built my house when I was in Connecticut. That
was like his interesting thing. Yeah, like, hey, what'd you
when'd you go to college? Boston College? Like how do
I know your name? I keep the field goal to
beat there to day And by the way, back then
Boston College is actually pretty good.
Speaker 6 (05:14):
So yeah, BC was there.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
There.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
There was a time when BC was was football for sure.
Obviously Doug Flutie.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
David Gordon did he major in carpentry. No, he just
did it as like his career not carpentry.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Was like he wittled it. He was like the he
was the contract engineering.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
Sure, somebody like that.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
The structural engineering nineteen ninety three was was heartbreak for
me in college football. And it was also the emergence
of Wisconsin under Barry Alvarez. None of my friends growing
up and cared about Wisconsin football. Yes, and then all
of a sudden they become good and they're in the
thick of it with Ohio State in trying to go
(05:59):
for a Big Ten championship. They actually tied at Camp
Randall Stadium a game between Ohio State and Wisconsin Marlon
Kerner blocked a field goal that could have won it
four Wisconsin. They ended a tie. All Ohio State needed
to do was beat Michigan the final week of the
season they would go to the Rose Bowl. That didn't happen,
and then Wisconsin ended up going to Rose Bowl to
(06:20):
the Rose Bowl because they beat Michigan State in Tokyo, Japan.
So that's what happened. In nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Ninety three, the Bulls beat the Suns in the NBA Finals.
What was interesting about that one was the Bulls actually
finished three to zero on the road in that series.
They won the first two games on the road, came
back home and the Suns won in triple overtime. Then
the Suns won Game four as well, and excuse me,
(06:58):
the Bulls won Game four, Suns won Game five, and
that was the famous John Packson on a kickout from
I think Horace Grant jump shot to win the game
that ended up winning the series. And I think Jordan
had thirty three, but it was John Packson who hit
(07:19):
the shot. And that was Charles Barkley. Charles Parker was
the MVP that you're in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Yeah, and then a month later the death of James R. Jordan,
Michael Jordan's father, and then three months later or two
months later, the retirement shocking the world. At age thirty,
Michael Jordan calls it quits for the first time, coming
off of three straight NBA titles. Lots of speculation as
(07:46):
to why he did that. And they kind of danced
around it in the last dance get it, they danced
around it, shade around this.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I think he sort of boogied sat break Dance. Unbelievable
year in movies, Jurassic Park, the first of what is
it like twenty Jurassic Parks now Schindler's List, Sleepless in Seattle,
The Sandlot, Rudy Home Alone, two, Falling Down.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Oh with Michael Douglas. Yeah, that is one of my
favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Tombstone all time. Tombstone is on anybody's list of favorite
Westerns of all time. A bronx tail. Great scene in
a bronx tail to start the movie, right, how you
know she's a keeper? Good one, Missus Doubtfire. Also nineteen
ninety three, The Firm, The Firm, which is a novel
(08:47):
that became John Grisham, Right, that was John Grisham's first
I think bestseller that became a movie as well, Tom Cruise,
and Tom Cruise was a star in a Menace to Society?
Speaker 6 (08:59):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Cool Runnings was that year? Unbelievable, Carlitos way.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Another one, just one after another, all hits classics.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Listen, I mean, what were they listening to when they
were when they were playing on the Sony Walk.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
Then I'm just.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Kind of going out of order here. But because I
love the golf, I like getting in the golf.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
And Sam and something else.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
I was just gonna say, you know, I think Iowans
had a reason to get to the movie theater to
kind of escape their lives, because there was a devastating
flood in nineteen ninety three in the state of Iowa
called the Great Flood of ninety three. I was looking
at a picture just now of Bill Clinton and Davenport
surveying the damage.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
And you know what did not cause that flood.
Speaker 7 (09:46):
He did not.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
He did not not with that woman.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
And you know, the Iowa football team could not get
people's spirits up either. They went six and six, lost
to cal and the Amal Bowl, but their quarterback was
current NBC broadcast Paul burmeister By as a.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Good friend of mine. We lived together in wes We
lived near each other in Westport, Connecticut.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
I love Paul and I think his broadcasting career is
you know, longer and more successful than maybe his playing
days at iwill, but we do claim him as one
of our own.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
Sure what happened in golf, Dan, Well, it's funny you ask,
because it was a unique year. There may have been
a flood of tears from Greg Norman. Both got a
flood joke in their happy tears and sad tears. Lost
in a playoff to Paul Aisinger at the PGA Championship,
but it was maybe landed a little softer because of
(10:38):
his win at the Open Championship in nineteen ninety three.
So Greg Norman getting his second and final career major.
You also had Lee Jansen winning the US Open and
one of our favorites, Bernhard Langer on his seconds in
nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
It's funny you bring up Paul Aaisinger. I saw him
interviewed right before that winning that major, and he was
listening to his.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Walkman, really walkman at the time.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Interesting, we said, and they said, what are you listening to?
Right now, Paul, and he's like the song that everybody's
listening to.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
Oh yeah, this is still a jam. Huh, this is
what I call music. Nineteen ninety three.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Who he oop he whoop?
Speaker 4 (11:31):
There it is by Tag Team, Bad Team.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
What's a damn?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
For those who don't remember who Tag Team is? Cecil DC,
the Brain Supreme Glenn and Steve Rolin Gibson reached number
one on the charts for nineteen straight weeks, and of
course everybody remembers Woomdad is made the all fourteenth on
the all Time Greatest Jock Jams All Time list Jock
(11:58):
Jam Jock Jams.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Some of the good songs though, I mean, think about this, Okay,
Rump Shaker was that year. That's Wrex.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
That was a good song.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Nothing but a g thing, Doctor Dre, I will Always
love You, Whitney.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
Houston Bodyguard originally Jolly Parton, Who Is Good Spirits Good
by Janet Jackson.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
That is a great song. Putting Rump Shaker.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
By s w V. That's sisters with voices.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Amongst this group, and saying there were a bunch of
great songs is just the issue that.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
To Princess Spin Doctors that sounds like more your jam there,
Dan Buyer, your spin.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Doctor totally be further from the truth. Shows how little
you actually do know me, so that you would think
that I would like to spin doctors.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I'm messy with you, Dan, I'm mess.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
You don't like that song, Dan, I just don't love it.
I don't really it was overplayed. Yeah it's yeah, No,
he just doesn't.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Think it's that good a song, right, It's just not
your jam, not your type of song.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Yeah, like yeah, it's hippy, it's you know, yeah, I
guess it's catchy in a way.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
All that she Wants a sa Bass was that song.
That's one that still gets to play.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
That's one of Jason's favorites. All that she Wants is
another baby.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
All that she wants keep you locked in. Also ice Cube,
it was a good day nineteen ninety three good song.
So people have gone back and tracked exactly what day
ice Cube was talking about. That was a good day.
Have you guys ever seen that on social media?
Speaker 6 (13:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Wait, wait the Lakers beat the super Socks. Hold on,
we got to go back. There's actually people who have
pinpointed when he wrote that song.
Speaker 5 (13:46):
Is that where he messed around and got a triple double?
Is that the same song?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Okay, same one?
Speaker 5 (13:51):
Yeah, that's a good day.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
I think he needed a team with four syllables, right,
Like you wouldn't be like yeah, and you could beat
the Lakers beat the Utah Jazz Rocket. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Yeah, Jazz Detroit Pistons doesn't work. SuperSonics does.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
It's got to be like quick Lakers beat the Trailblazers,
like you got to string it out like that doesn't
it doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Doesn't work, it doesn't work at all. Anything else happened
to nineteen ninety.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Three, Home Improvement was the favorite TV show of people
watching on TV. Seinfeld was h in its earlier days.
Was ninety three was in its.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
Earlier Yeah, it was like nineteen ninety one, ninety eight,
ninety to ninety eight. Seinfeld was just getting popular because
the first season, I think with they were like on
the brink of cancelation and then they started to pick
up steam. They were in their heyday in ninety three.
Speaker 6 (14:53):
Seinfeld ran from July fifth, nineteen eighty nine to May fourteenth,
nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
Yeah, their prime at that point. I thought they started
ninety But to.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Dan's point, last week month had the eighth largest rated
h TV show of the year. The TV shows ahead
of it included Fraser Coach Grace, under Fire Coaches Good
Roseanne Seinfeld, Home Improvement Coach Hayden Fox based off of last.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Year the Rams were in were in in Orange County
that right before they moved to set Tracks.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, the Raiders and the Rams took off the same
season right later.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Is here in ninety three or ninety four, and that
is don't call it a come don't call it a
throwback Thursday.
Speaker 6 (15:41):

Speaker 2 (16:02):
S Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio. It's so funny, Dan.
I heard this song Saturday. I was playing pick a
ball with my son in Oklahoma in a place called
the Chicken and Pickle, and I whooped him twice. Whooped
the boy twice, actually three games. I beat him all
three games, I think, And it was one of those
(16:24):
This is a great like dad moment. You're gonna have
with Brody when he gets older. My Hayes is sixteen.
And I said, who's better pickleball?
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Me or you?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
He's like, I am. I said, really, I just beat
you twice a row. Who's better? He said, I am.
I said, you're right, you are who won the games
you did? I said, do you know why? He said,
Why is because I'm just smarter than you. I have
more experience and smarter and that's why I beat you,
and I will always beat you because I'm always going
to be smarter than you. Right this little trash talk
(16:53):
dad and son anyway, that's always playing on the background.
It was just funny then, and we're doing nineteen ninety three.
Then it pops up. So so, Shor Sanders has not
been named backup quarterback yet yet with the Cleveland Browns.
We don't know, right they can have two rookies whatever.
But he was allowed to speak to the media. This
is the first time he's been able to speak to
the media since he did the mind thing, going back
(17:16):
a week ago. Of course, since then, they've lost another game,
and then with Dylan Gabriel starting, Dylan Gabriel performed pretty
well and then they trade away Joe Flacco to their rival,
the Cincinnati Bengals, desperately need of a quarterback. Here is
Shador having exchange with Beat reporters earlier today.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
We're gonna make sure we do everything we shouldn't to
make sure doing ready for the game. So you know
whatever that means. So each and every day, even when
Joe was the start of everything, you know, take prepare
the right way and be ready to know that you
could get out there any point in time. So I'm
overly confident within myself. So I know when I first
got here, you know I'm ready to play. But you know,
this up to the coaches and you know, whatever decision
(17:55):
you know, they make them that I'm fine.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
With better right. It's like it's like if we would
have done that a while back, we'd be so much
better off. Does he want to be out there? He
answered the question yes. Does he think he's ready to
be out there? He said, he's over confident. Probably not
the right way to say it, but again take it
with a grain of salt. And what I think he
(18:18):
meant to say, I'm confident, sure, right, Like I'm not
going to parse his words and say, wow, you use
this word like let's not be those guys. But he
did say, like, look, our job is to get Dylan
Gabriel ready and make sure he's ready, and then be
ready yourself. Great. The question is did he not know
(18:39):
he was supposed to do that all along? Right, it's
not like he's never been around an NFL team, or
been around an NFL quarterback, or been around an NFL
locker room. That's how you're supposed to do it. Not
that hard, and there's no negatives. He didn't diminish himself,
(19:05):
he didn't fall on the sword. He didn't act like
he's some inferior dude. He just said, hey, Dylan's a starter.
I'm fine with that. That's their decision. I'm going to
get him ready. I'm gonna be ready myself. I'm confident
that if called upon, I can be ready.
Speaker 6 (19:22):
I also wonder, Doug if the delay now My thoughts
on Shud or maybe not being the backup quarterback had
a lot of other factors with it. Mainly they just
didn't think that he was worthy enough to be that
guy last week didn't. They had Joe Flaccos as the
backup at that point, so I was curious on what
(19:45):
changed and if he would have had a miming answer
or something that was not necessarily coach speak or quarterback
speak however you want to say it, If he didn't
say something that was just within the team, I think
that would give Kevin Stefanski every reason then to have
Bailey Zappy be the backup quarterback this week. But maybe
(20:08):
there's an understanding for Shador on what he learned last
week and what he learned this week, and now Kevin
Stefanski does have a decision, and I think that if
if Shador would have handled things like he's handled it
previously in other interactions with the media, he would have
made the decision really easy for Kevin Stefanski for week six.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
We we we agree. But by the way, here's a question, guys, Now,
how many guys have YouTube TV?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Sam?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
You get YouTube TV?
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Chase dou Yep?
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Remember I was uh.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
The first right, Yeah, you're you're you're old school before
I even knew what YouTube was. Buyer Nope, Okay, so
a little bit of that your YouTube TV guy. You're
probably gonna get a little bit of pass on this one.
But you got the potential. You got three games potentially
going on at once, potentially right, Phillies and Dodgers. It's
(21:11):
a three gay three hours. Apartment's close at the end
of that game, then you at the start of Brewers
and Cubs, and you have NFL football. So if it's
coming down the wire, I know where Jay stew is, right,
he's Dodgers Phillies above all else. Let's say you get
(21:33):
to eight fifteen, eight twenty and Eagles Giants. Giants have
like a two touchdown lead, they get up early. Again,
I'm giving you a possibility here, Cubs, Brewers close, and
Dodgers Phillies in the late innings close. Buyer, do you
absolutely go to baseball or do you go football?
Speaker 6 (21:55):
I'll probably set up a two TV scenario, which I
do have the ability to do, uh in our house
with that, But if I was leaning on focusing on
one more than the other, it would probably be baseball
while focusing on the Philadelphia Eagles when they have the football.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Okay, there's some fantasy to that.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Sammy.
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Well, I'd have to have a separate TV to watch
the Thursday night game, right, because it's on Prime. I
have just one team, you, right, I have just the
one TV. And here's Milesome. I'll just continue to harp
on this with YouTube TV. Last night, I wanted to
watch the end of Yankees Blue Jays and the start
of Dodgers Phillies and I could not, and even in
(22:45):
because they offer, well, okay, you could. I don't know
what's wrong if I have some kind of outdated YouTube TV.
But they did not offer me multiview of watching those
two MLB games. And I find this to be ridiculous, Like, yeah,
go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Is it location based?
Speaker 5 (22:59):
I really I don't understand because they'll say, here's multiview
and you can watch like these two weather channels, you
can watch these four random it's always the same set.
Speaker 4 (23:07):
So I have to okay, yeah, I just need to
correct the record here. Yeah, it does sound like you
have an outdated aided TV. Why would we be outdated
because now we could pick our we could pick our
have that option.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
I have the option every night to pick our multiview.
You pick, you customize it every single game.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
It gives you the option and you customize, So you're outdated.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
I don't. I don't.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
It doesn't update on its own. I'm confused. I would
think that it would just like be there for you,
So I just don't I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
We need to schedule like a.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
Intervention, like a geek geek squad coming over my house.
I'll look into it, but I'm I guess I'm yeah.
Maybe I have an old uh version of YouTube TV,
but I thought those were updating on their own and
uh listen to YouTube TV if you're listening right now.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
I will look into this.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
I'm not blaming you. Jason has an up to date
information here.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I think that I think I can find one thing
we can all agree on. And maybe I'm wrong. Phillies
blue uniforms are amazing, Yes, and I'm asking I'm looking
at you our our uniform connoisseur Dan Byer, like are
you I'm actually asking for.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
Your verbal verbal approval.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Yes, we're even visual here on YouTube.
Speaker 6 (24:17):
Yeah, nodded my head. Yeah, you're doing some work as well,
but but look.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Like you were doing some work. Jason. Where are you
on the Phillies blue uniforms?
Speaker 4 (24:28):
I wecome. Yeah, it's kind of a reminisce about the
good old days with Mike Schmidt.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Yeah, I mean, like you're watching last night Dodgers have
been classic, same Dodger uniforms forever and then the Phillies
You're going back to Mike Schmidt era. Like, wow, that's awesome.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
Don't get it twisted, though. The reason that those blues
work so well is because of the maroon. Yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
But maroon is man, I'm glad you pointed that out. Okay,
so I had this obviously. I'm in Green Bay. Our
colors are green and white. He's black. We used to
have a little red. They've they've gone away with the red.
We're gonna come back to the red here in coming years.
But the point is that maroon works as an accent color, right,
as an accent color. Like I don't like USC's maroon uniforms.
(25:14):
I'm trying to think redskins. But when when the maroon
is the number and the blue is the color.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
It pops.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
It's great. It's very very unique. It's a lot like brown.
Speaker 5 (25:25):
Are you are you giving us your maroon five right now?
This list called maroon five? Nice?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Oh you're so sweet, You're like sugar. Anyway, do you guys.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Think of this idea? This is consistent with the conversation
you guys are having. Did you hear Kyle Brandt's idea. No,
he said that Throwback Thursday should be the one night
NFL teams where where the throwbacks?
Speaker 5 (25:52):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Both teams do it every Thursday night. Throwback Thursday.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, there's a couple of weeks ago when the Packers
playing thres and they wore their iced out uniforms. I
forget or they played it, didn't wear that. It was
second game of the year, right Commanders, huh commanders, Yeah,
and they just wear regular uniforms like struggle with that one.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Well, that's the whole deal with the rival everything. I
don't mind Kyle Brandt's idea, but I the more that
you can wear it, the better. So the more that
we could see Bucko Bruce or the Seahawks and in
their uniforms that they wore this past weekend, I think
the better. Limiting it to just Thursday night would not
be enough for me. But I don't understand why one
(26:34):
team has a rivalry uniform and then the other team doesn't.
It makes zero sense to me. I don't know why
the Bills would wear their rivalry uniforms and the Patriots
would wear a normal uniform. And now we've seen this
in a couple of games the Seahawks. Same thing with
the Cardinals, and the Cardinals were theirs, Like, it doesn't
(26:56):
make any sense. The Dolphins were their rivalry union forms
all black, and the Jets come in with their normal uniforms.
That doesn't make sense. And I know what you're gonna
say is, well, the rivalry uniforms can't be the same color,
and then don't make them the same color. We've had
color on color games before. You speaking that voice, Hey,
I think that's my idiot on social media voice saying
(27:19):
that's okay.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I get acused of anytime I'm speaking of the about
a woman in an entertaining voice. It sounds like my mom,
so that the same way she's your mom.
Speaker 6 (27:27):
Well, you know, but that doesn't make sense to me.
But even to take it back to the Phillies, the
era in Major League Baseball in the nineteen eighties when
so many teams were light blue. The Brewers did, the
Rangers did, the Royals did, the Blue Jays did, the
Phillies did. Like all of these teams had an alternative,
(27:48):
baby blue. The Twins did. And if you were to
lay those out, some work and some don't. And the
Phillies really does, because I think of that of that color.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Okay, let's get to what was said last night on TV.
Yankees wearing their classic Yankee pinstrip uniforms. Thankfully those haven't
been adjusted, but they were beaten by the Blue Jays,
another one of those teams that had worn baby blue.
They thank you. It kind of all comes back full circle.
So after the game, Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter did
(28:25):
a postgame moratry. A month the Yankees season, take a.
Speaker 8 (28:28):
Listen, Aaron's been very classic. We've all been very consistent
with that. Honestly, from the entire organization, he's the one
guy with Circle that has least to be to blame.
I mean, he's got a lot of talent, but for
me personally, one of the worst construction of a roster
I've ever seen. You have three left headed catchers, you
have five dhs, you have a first basement in and out.
(28:51):
It's just a very very difficult hand for boone. And honestly,
they were exposed against a much better Jay's team.
Speaker 9 (28:58):
Yeah, I mean, look, Aaron said it, they got beat.
They got beat. You know, last year, you can sit
back and talk about the World Series in Game five
and you can say Yankees beat themselves in that particular game.
In this series, the Toronto Blue Jays proved that they
were a better team from top to bottom. They were
a better team.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Aaron did a good job.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
I mean, look, he's working with what he has to
work with, and he sticks up for his players. I
know he takes a lot of heat, but look, I'm
not saying it from any inside knowledge, but I'm pretty
sure Aaron's not the one that's calling every move that
they make throughout the game.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
All right, So that was two guys trying to take
the pressure off of Aaron Boone the possibility of being fired.
I guess my question is, and look, I actually believe
this to be true. Part of what Alex Rodriguez saying
is true. The Yankees have been built for a previous era,
right power, hitting, offense above defense. The Brewers are the
(29:59):
team most buil for this era. You can still play
small ball, you can hit home runs, and I believe
every one of their position players at some point in
time was a shortstop. They do actually, they draft and
want to acquire athleticism in the field because that's what's needed,
more so now in baseball than ever before. And I
(30:19):
don't think the Yankees are constructed that way, but it
does feel like Alex Rodriguez trying to extract some revenge
from Brian Cashman, which is weird obviously because he was
on the team Cashman brought him in, but remember he
was persona non grata and how it ended after the
second ped test was super super ugly. And then he
marched on over the wfan and went on air with
(30:41):
FRANCESSA and tried to tried to, you know, win over
the fans, which didn't work. It's just a really weird
thing when you know, he starts pointing out things, which
some of which are accurate, but it's like, okay, so
if you don't like having that many guys that can't
play the field, are you getting rid of Stanton? Are
(31:01):
you getting rid of Judge?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Which?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
What are you going to do?
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Arin?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
I mean, which, which one are you gonna do? Alex?
I get one of the one of those two you can't.
So some of those guys you're like saddled it Like
I got two prodigious power hitters, both are essentially dhs,
but only one can DH. And yeah, like what do
(31:25):
you do with Paul Goldschmit? Jay Stu, your thoughts on
the roster construction discussion.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
I think, I mean, this is a team that went
to the World Series last year, so I mean it's
it's a real weird one for me to say that
this is a drastically different team. I don't think it was.
I guess, uh, you're missing Won Soto, so I guess.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
That don't have Garrett Cole either.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Garrett Cole.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Yeah, and then and the starting pitching in the playoffs
was abysmal. Any of that, all that stuff may be true.
He didn't say anything about the starting pitching, and the
starting pitching was correct uffal right, Like, let's not get
it twisted, Okay. In Games one and two they gave
up twenty three runs combined. Twenty three runs combined. There
(32:17):
isn't a manager who can do anything about that. Twenty
three runs combined. I just like Alex is extracting revenge
on National TV. I don't think it necessarily matters in
that building, but it does matter in perception. This is
the Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Coming

Here's Dan Byer with the press.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
The press.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Hey Dan, Hey Doug, you got some NBA stuff because
the annual GM survey done by NBA dot Com is out.
That's gonna come up in a little bit. Yeah, that's
just a little bit. I do want to start out
with this story though. We've got baseball coming up in
an hour, the Phillies and Dodgers, then Brewers and Cubs.
Just after nine o'clock Eastern time, but Mike Greenwell died.
The former Red Sox outfielder spent his entire career in
(33:59):
Boston twelve years battled cancer sixty two years old. I
know it's a name that guys like our age remember fondly,
not only from playing but also in the height of
the baseball card era. I remember the Tops All Rookie team. Yes,
skat Gator Greenwell.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
I also remember him for one of the greatest video
games of all time was RBI Baseball. Right, and Mike
Greenwills was with the Red Sox and RBI Baseball.
Speaker 6 (34:31):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
He was also famously second in American League MVP voting
to Jose Canseco in eighty eight. So when now the
news came out and Conseco said, yeah, I was on
Royd's the entire season, there was a sentiment to give
the MVP to Mike Greenwell.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
What's crazy about it is right again, And I don't
wish poorly upon Jose Canseco. But a guy who openly
is a complete roid head and by the way, kind
of a complete disaster in life, he's fine right living
his life somewhere in Florida. He and his brother. I've
seen pictures totally juiced up, totally jacked right, Mike Greenwell
(35:13):
cancer dies early sixties.
Speaker 6 (35:16):
Yeah, sad news for sure. Lamar Jackson didn't practice today,
now that did. Kyler Murray and Brock Party not seen
at the opening of practice for the forty nine ers today.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
That's a lot backup quarterback city. Who's the backup in Arizona?
I don't even know.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Jacoby Brissette.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Oh, that's right, you said that. Why don't you go out,
Cob Brissette.
Speaker 6 (35:37):
He ended up having to play. It was on the
field for a short period of time against the Titans
because Kyler Murray had to leave the playing field. And yeah,
so Jacoby Brissette would get the starts in Indianapolis.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Said got the start for Tom Brady when Tom Brady
was suspended. They only got like one game or two.
Speaker 6 (35:56):
Games and Garoppolo got hurt. So that's why Brissette had
to start. But Jacoby Brisset also played for the colt
sets of the Cardinals play this weekend in Week six
in Indianapolis. All right, onto the GM poll. Eighty percent
of the gms across the NBA feel the Oklahoma City
Thunder will repeat as NBA champions in the twenty twenty
five twenty twenty six season.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
I think, what again, you have to remember Chet is
not there yet. If Chet takes a step this year,
I don't know how this team becomes sort of unstoppable.
I think they won early in their cycle and it's
just going to be about ego and injuries, whether or
not they can while they're still under all they can get.
(36:40):
All these guys under contract were like two years away
from them topping out financially to where some of the
other players will have to go.
Speaker 6 (36:48):
The Cavaliers and Nuggets received a couple of votes, as
did the Rockets and next. Last year, the Celtics were
picked by eighty three percent of the GMS to win
it all. That did not happen. As for your end VP,
the Kolyokich of the Nuggets sixty seven percent, an overwhelming
pick by the GMS. Luka Dancica the Lakers was second.
Shay Gilgess, Alexander the reigning MVP, third, Victor Wembin Yama
(37:12):
fourth in voting.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Wemby Wemby fourth. When was the last time you actually
watched a Wemby game? I haven't I haven't watched it
a long time.
Speaker 6 (37:19):
I'm well, he was also out, you know, for a
while with the blood clot issue, so you had you
had that.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
He looks like a made up character on two K.
He just does you ever seem like my son has
made up characters that are that tall on two K
And you're like, there's nobody looks like that in real life.
And then you're like, well, hold on, what about Wemby.
Speaker 6 (37:38):
Well, when asked on who the who you would start
a franchise with, eighty three percent said Victor wembin Yama,
up from last year when you said seventy seven percent
for wem Binyama. Sga and Jokic were the other two
receiving votes. Just some of the picks of the gms
in the NBA. And that is the press, get out
(38:00):
there and press.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
That was the press.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Okay, it's the Doug Gotlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio.
I do have a little sort of personal announcement right
there's a new book out that Don Jaeger has authored.
It's called The New Science and Momentum. We'll be dropping
a podcast, All Ball Podcast, sometime later tonight. In the meantime,
(38:23):
enjoy the games back tomorrow only in the Doug Gottlieb Show,
