it is a big accomplishment that I made it to
and from Vegas s with Spirit Airline in one piece,
and my flight was not delayed.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
There was no perfect that's I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
My biggest pet peeve is when media members go on
Twitter to complain about airlines and feel like they are
about to just bury Delta. That is like Delta. You
are not going to recover from my seventeen thousand followers
in my localized region where we don't even have a
Delta hub. But for some reason, I'm flying Delta. It
is one of my favorites of just United Air. You
(01:18):
are gonna get the wrath of me like nobody cares.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Nobody cares.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I'm glad that you had a successful flights. Spirit sometimes
gets the short end of the stick. But you had
an enjoyable experience on your flight.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Easy.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Yes, I was actually upset at going to the airport
two hours before because I didn't need to.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
That's how easy of an experience.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I correct, though, plenty of time to plenty of time
to kill it.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah, you know what I did. I listened to JJ Reddick.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well that's good, and we're going to get into JJ
Redick because JJ Reddick had a lot to say, some
of which he shouldn't have said. Manzi, But I just
have one more order of business before we dive into this.
So we have a Stanley Cup champion in the Florida Panthers.
We have an NBA champion in the Boston Celtics. The
(02:03):
College World Series is now over as tennesse se brought
home the title last night, and we are officially in
the summer, as we have made it past the summer solstice, correct, Iowa, Sam?
Is this good to call it summer?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Now?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Are we good? The gatekeeper of when summer actually is approved?
We are in summer. Welcome in. It is the Doug
Gottlieb Show. She's Monse, I'm Dan Beyer, and we are
talking about what everyone is talking about, and that is
the F bomb heard around the world yesterday from Lakers
head coach JJ Reddick in his introductory press conference as
(02:38):
the Lakers head coach. If you missed it, we got
good news for you. Here it is.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
I've certainly heard everything. It's been a really interesting six
weeks or so just in terms of, you know, being
part of the engagement farming industry. You know, it's been
really interesting. However, I don't have a great answer for
your question because I really don't give it, like honestly, hmmm.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
All right, and then the Lakers under JJ Redick start out, Oh,
to one, you do not drop an F bomb and
think that you've won anything when you are being introduced
as a head coach to one of the most storied
franchises in the NBA, the biggest brand in the NBA,
the twenty ninth head coach of that franchise. You are
not gaining anything by dropping an F bomb, JJ Reddick,
(03:28):
and the Lakers are oho to one in his ten
year as head coach.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Are you yelling, get off my lawn? That's what it
sounds right.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I'm in place, mansei time, in place for everything, Okay.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
I just don't understand, like how we are so phyxiated
on that. In reality, there was other things that he
said that we should be discussing.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yet people want to talk about this F bomb.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
And he was talking about himself in the moment, and
I know he said it again, but in that moment
when he's asked, he was asked, what misconceptions are you
going to, you know, try to disprove, and he was like.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Over it, He's heard it all right now. It has
been an interesting six weeks.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I don't know what it's like to be JJ Reddick
being told I'm your number one choice. Wait, I'm one
B actually, and you're only coming back to me because
one A turned you down. And yes, I have no
prior head coaching experience, which everyone in their mom is
talking about he was talking in the moment about himself,
and I just felt that it wasn't fake. And I
think that a lot of people have a problem with
(04:24):
this because they have a problem with JJ Reddick himself
prior to this How did you feel about JJ Redick?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
How did I feel about JJ Redick.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Prior to this press conference?
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, I thought I thought he was a heck of
a player. I thought that the hire was made by
Lebron James, and I thought that there were other qualified
candidates that should have gotten the job. I said yesterday
that they're trying to surround him with a veteran staff,
and so I'm like, well, then why not hire a
veteran if that's what you were looking for. That's how
I feel about JJ Reddick. I felt Sam Cassell maybe
(04:56):
would have been a better hire. Maybe he didn't want
the job, maybe.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
You know, the other options that everybody was talking about.
I was like, maybe they just didn't want the job.
But I still don't think you answered the question what
did you feel about JJ Reddick as a person prior
to all of this.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I feel like a lot of people don't like him.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
A lot of people find him arrogant, and cocky, which
I think he is.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
But I also don't think he's a fake guy.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I think he's calculated, but he's who he is and
stoic at times. And I feel that one of the
reasons that the Lakers liked JJ Reddick, or maybe they
just are pretending that they like him, is that he
is going to relate to the younger crowd. And this
whole thing about cursing the time and place, I feel
like we're in a different time. I mean, you know,
you interviewed me. I may have thrown in a bit
(05:37):
of a curse word when you interviewed me, not the
same one obvious sleep time and place.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Actually, this is true. I did interview Manzi and did
bring Manzi, hired her to Fox Sports Radio, but you
didn't drop an f mond No. I wasn't enough when
I asked, what you know you felt that you could
bring this Fox Sports Radio. I know, I said, Manzi,
would you like to be a part of our team?
And then you did have a swear word after that.
(06:04):
But that is different. That's different if he's having the
private conversation with Rob Polinka, I get that he is
who he is, but he is now the Lakers head coach,
and you are not the same person the day before.
You are now the Lakers head coach, time and place
with everything. He has his own podcast where he and
(06:25):
Lebron could have traded f bombs for fifty minutes. It
just does not translate. Well, I'll give you an example.
Travis kelce You love Travis kelce right, the story of
the week, the story of the week for him being
on stage with his girlfriend Taylor Swift. Yeah, this is
Travis kelcey talking about the haters with the Busting with
(06:47):
the Boys podcast from Barstool. This is what Travis kelce
had to say about the haters. I know what's real
when I walk into the building. I know where my
intentions are and I know who I am as like
a person, right, So it's like, yeah, I guess I'm
not having the success or. It's you know, people are
taking having some hot takes on me and on what
I got going on on the field and off.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
But for the most part, man, I just I really
don't give. I just have the I don't give a
damn syndrome and I.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Just keep it moving.
Speaker 7 (07:16):
Man.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
It's lovely. I sleep wonderful at night. Yeah, you know.
I'm just I'll have a few beers if things are
getting you know, they're too fun or too bad, and
it'll just be, you know, onto the next one. Man.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Yeah, Travis Kelsey is legit hated by almost everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
JJ Reddick. I don't think that's the situation. I don't think.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
I just think he gives people like a vibe that
he's that he thinks he's smarter than you. That's the
vibe that I think people get from JJ Reddick. That's
why I don't like him.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
You know, did that sound out of place? Travis Kelsey
saying that, yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It actually sounded a little too calm for it to be.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Travis Kelsey, I thought that it sounded fine. I thought
it's in a podcast form. You're doing it with other athletes,
your peers, guys you've played against in your career. There
is something to that. There is a time and place
for it. We've seen it on TV shows. FX now
has whatever you want to say, right. There's a difference though,
(08:16):
between being introduced as a head coach of the Lakers
and having a podcast or talking with Rob Polinka or
having a show on FX. That is not the time
to do it and I feel that the people that
he was talking to are the same people that you
aren't going to change their minds, and the fans that
you may have gotten by dropping an F bomb are
(08:37):
going to leave you just as quickly as they jumped
on board because you said the F bomb the first
four game losing streak of the first time that Lebron
looks like he's frustrated with his head coach, Bye bye,
They're not going to stick around. So you also have
to know your consequences in who you're actually talking to.
And at that point, you may have won a couple
of fans, but those fans are going to be there
(08:58):
for the long haul. And that's where he misses the mark.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
I mean, I think it's different right now because neither
of us is a Lakers fan, right so I'm looking
at this as a guy who's not my coach, and
maybe that's why I wasn't bothered by it at all.
I'm thinking I thought, would I be upset if if
ty Lu did this, you know, when he was hired,
And I truly don't think it would have bothered me.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
I think JJ Reddick is.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Literally in a lose, lose, lose, maybe win situation, So like,
who cares if he said this, are we gonna be
talking about this if they start five to zero? You know,
like he's there's nothing he can do right, Everybody is
waiting for results, and if the results are good, then
this isn't gonna matter. If the results aren't good, it's
gonna be brought up again. But he all we're doing
is waiting.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
To see what he's gonna do.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
And an F bomb dropped here in what you're saying,
time and place not the time and place.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
To me, it's like he he's It showed a little
bit of passion, and it showed that he cared. And
I don't have a problem with that.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So passion if he was like, we're gonna win the
bleep in Western Conference, he was talking to and that
is a very JJ reddick thing. And as a coach,
I think you have to be able to process that.
I shouldn't say this if I am now the head
coach of the Lakers, or is this about me? Or
is this about the Lakers and being the Lakers head coach?
(10:16):
And that's where he completely misses the ball. And I
think it wrung a bunch of people's ears the wrong way.
I'm curious. I don't want to sound like, get off
my long, guy, but we do have peers here at
Fox Sports Radio Iowa, Sam Ryan Bersinger, Isaac Lohenkron. I
want to start with Isaac if he's available, because he
is a media veteran. Did it hit your ear wrong
(10:40):
at all when you heard JJ Reddick drop that F
bomb yesterday?
Speaker 8 (10:43):
Well, for first of all, I am not your peer.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
I'm way down.
Speaker 8 (10:50):
Below Blan thought I was going to say it the
other way. A good afternoon. By the way, yes it
did because a lot of networks and radio stations were
carrying that live. And I understand that that's part of
the deal with modern athletes when doing these live and
(11:11):
if use, they happen all the time postgame, but time
and place, Time and place an introductory press conference is
a different form and a venue than just after you
want a hard fought game and haven't had a chance
to cool off.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
First impression, My first impression of you, Monty was the
actual interview, when you actually swore on the phone to
me when I offered you the job, I had already
spoken with you, so I felt I had a little
bit of a basis with you.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Sure, but he already got the job, so he's good.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Like that initial conversation is what he had with Rob
Polinka and Jeanie Buss. At this point, it's like, again,
I think he's just in a situation where it's lose lose,
lose slightly win.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Could he have not said it?
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
But is it that big of a deal.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
No, Ryan Berschinger, I feel like you are not of
my generation. Not to name ages here, How did you
feel about yesterday?
Speaker 7 (12:03):
You know, when I first heard it, I didn't really
think anything of it, But I think that's That's kind
of the interesting point though, is the fact that it
wasn't really surprising, because I think we've grown accustomed to,
especially younger guys like this. I mean, we heard a
lot from players we and I'm sure he's not the
first coach to talk this way in their press conference.
But at the same time, like, it wasn't something that
(12:25):
surprised me, and then when I kind of unpacked that
a little more, it actually is surprising because you look
at the fact that he did just come from the
media world, and he would know that, like everybody behind
the camera tenses up the second.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
That somebody does that. Sure, because we're all for us here.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
If you guys happen to curse on air, both like,
it doesn't matter even if we zone out for a second,
we are conditioned to like suddenly freak out and jump
in our chairs to do something about it. So yeah,
when you think about it more, you realize you weren't
getting JJ Reddick, the ESPN NBA analyst. You were getting
the podcast host. And maybe if you dive more into
(13:04):
that and see, is that more than the angle that
he's going to come at as a coach. I don't
know if that's reading too much into it, but I
did think it was interesting from that angle.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
And by the way, on second thought, I just remembered
that generationally, remember Roy Williams at Kansas just after they
lost the national championship. He cursed live in that post
interview when he was asked about going to North Carolina.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
It is something that I think we're more accustomed to.
But in this realm that we work in. You're right,
if I hear somebody even I tense up right naturally.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
But if this was.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
All that you took away from the press conference, that's
my problem with that. You know, It's like he said,
so much more. He gave specifics as to how he
wants to improve the Lakers and how they can actually win,
and instead we are discussing his f bombs and I
just don't get.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
That's why it was so important for him to not
say it, because it distracted from everything else that he said. Iowa, Sam,
I wanted him to get his last word because I
think I was. Sam agrees with me.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah, I know why we're doing this topic.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I just want to ask everyone just because I want
to see you just want to see.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Yeah, survey, I agree.
Speaker 9 (14:13):
No, I I didn't like you already had the votes.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Man.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Yeah, I know clearly this happened before I got here.
Speaker 9 (14:18):
I think it was cringey and unprofessional.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Cringey.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Yeah, it was a bomb.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Well, it's because of the time and the place. I
thought it was cringing and professionally. You're up there wearing
a suit and you're it's an introductory press conference. Great
point by Isaac. It's being carried live by other radio
and TV outlets. But I also understand that your point,
MANCI where you're like, listen, he said a lot of
things of substance, and we should also focus on that.
But I think it was distracting to dance. Point I
(14:46):
just like I looked at I saw Rob Polinka's face
after he said the first I think He's said the
effort effort twice, but the first time he sort of
looked a little uncomfortable for a moment. And what Rob
Polinka probably just forgot about it, Larry, he didn't really
care about it afterwards. Profanities have been I feel like
slowly infiltrating like movies and pop culture, like especially like
the harder words, like you know, the F word and
(15:08):
stuff for like the last forty five fifty years, you're
hearing it more and more, and then, like in comedies
of today, you hear it just so much that maybe
it's like lost its power.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
That's that's that's such a It's such an interesting line though,
because there are comedians who feel that using a curse
word is a crutch, right, It is only done for
a fact that you can't be funny with your mind
and your words, But then it has to you have
to for a too long that you have to.
Speaker 9 (15:32):
Crust should be used as a punctuation, not as a
constant filler in sentences in between words.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
I actually agree that comedians who use it. It's like
a cop out because you're trying to be funny. But
I also think that there are times when there is
no other word but an F bomb to get across
what you're trying to say. As somebody who loves to curse,
away from the microphones, I curse.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
I curse a lot too.
Speaker 9 (15:54):
But when I'm at like the grocery store and I'm
in front of some like ten year old little boy,
or I see some viral video of a ten year
old boy like cursing out his mom and using all
this vulgar, horrible language and profanities, I'm like, I feel bad.
I'm like, man, they got failed along the way, And
this is where this in this kind of situation, this
is where you don't curse in your introductory press conference.
There needs to be a little bit of a line
(16:15):
of separation there.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
A ten year old vulgar cursing a parent is not with.
Speaker 9 (16:20):
JJ Reddick, but it's a symptom of that. It's where
we make it too casual for cursing in a situation
like that, and then it starts to trickle down to
people who are younger and maybe don't understand what they're
saying that's my opinion.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
So JJ Reddick has a responsibility to raise kids, right.
Speaker 9 (16:38):
He's not raising each children. It's when you're in a
professional setting, in an introductory press conference where you're introducing
yourself to millions of more people that knew you before.
Maybe just it's just a bad look.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
I just think it's sound professional, it's too casual. I
think the fact that JJ Reddick again fellat it was
more important to be JJ Reddick than the Lakers head
coach in that moment. He can he can f bomb
to the cows come home, you know, for today until
whenever with his team, with the refs, however he wants
to do it. But that's setting in where you didn't
(17:12):
like they didn't just lose a heartbreaking game by a
three at the buzzer, where you want to say those words,
You want to scream like he did it for effect
to a group of haters air quotes that again, really
don't care if he said it or not. But what
you did is you offended a lot of other people
around and just kind of shed a little bit more
light to maybe what your motivation may be. That's the
(17:34):
problem I have with it. Time and place you can
do it whenever he wants. That wasn't the time and place.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
I honestly feel a lot of this really stems from
how people already had it dislike towards him and his
attitude and his cockiness, which he is.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
He is cocky. He comes off that way, and you
know he.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Went to Duke, so he's been cocky for a while.
But I think that stems more from it. I'm really curious,
like if Steve Nash would have said this F bomb
when he was introduced as the nets Head coach.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
I don't know if it would have been this negative
of a reaction.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
I feel like it has to do more because JJ Reddick,
like everybody's like he's underqualified. He's just this guy who
went to Duke and his friends with Lebron, And I
think that's where this really stems from. Why everyone's having
such a problem with it, and not everybody. There's a
lot of people who really doesn't care either. But when
I go on social media and I read the people
(18:26):
who are mad, they're like, I never liked that arrogant guy.
So it's like, okay, so you just have feelings already
about him, and this just propelled you to feel like
that even more.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Well, he played into it if that's you know, if
that's the persona. But when you're the Lakers head coach,
they're bigger fish to fry than being the hated villain
from Duke and the shit that could shoot the lights out.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
And you also said like, I want him to be
the Lakers head coach, like I wanted him to personify
that and not just to be himself or something like that.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Right, we just said, who cares if he's just himself?
Like this, isn't that what you want?
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Though a little bit more of transparency, and he was
transparent and everything he said he.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Has he has. He has days and weeks to be
able to to prove that that was just that was
not the setting. It's not you don't go in there
and be like, man, I can't wait to drop this
f bomb and put them on their ears. And that's
what I felt like. He was waiting for that opportunity
to do so, and I could he's he could have
said I don't give a bleep and it would have
had the same effect of that, except we wouldn't all
(19:28):
be in a hubbub. We would have been like, all right,
he doesn't care about the haters. But for some reason
he took this step to use the F word more
than once and feels that it's no issue like that's
that's that's the whole issue of people don't think that
you're qualified to be the Lakers head coach in day one?
Is this test and you fail it with a big
(19:49):
giant f hun intended. You know what, We're gonna play
some audio coming up next. Well, see if whose mind
may be changed? Okay, because there is a specific piece
of audio that may change your opinion on this whole deal.
Maybe MONSI will come to my side, maybe I'll jump
to her side. We're gonna play it next. Hit her

Paul schemes in every shape and form.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
I wasn't sure if I was supposed to give you
a different answer, that's all.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
It's like, are we wanting to give you this?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
All right, Paul, that's all right. We do prep for
the show, but hey, it's all. It's what we do.
I'm just glad you didn't say anybody else, because then
I'd have to say Bursch, Now, who would you think?
And then we could start the topic. But no, Paul
Skeens is a is a name, and there are This
happens time and again. I think it happened. It happened
(22:20):
a while ago. I know that you know, he's no
longer in the league and wasn't the same pitcher that
he was early. But the Mets had a Matt Harvey day,
and I think that you're getting to the point where
you have a Paul Skeen's day when Paul Skeens is
pitching for the Pittsburgh Pirates and Jeff Passing within the
last twenty four to forty eight hours had tweeted that
(22:42):
Paul Skeens needs to get to the all Star Game.
And I don't think anybody here and anybody, even if
you think that it's okay for JJ Reddick to swear,
I don't know anybody that would be against Paul Skeens
going to the All Star Game. And it just it
backs up a point that I brought up last year.
Then I know some didn't like, but you know who
(23:02):
we were, You know who we were in love with
leading up to the All Star Game and excited about
in late May and into June and had all of
our attention Ellie de la Cruz. Now, Ellie de la
Cruz's time in the major leagues at that point may
not have been sufficient enough to be an All Star.
(23:24):
But if the All Star Game is what it is
meant to be and honor the game's best but also
be a showcase for Major League Baseball, you got to
figure out a way to get Ellie de la Cruz
in the game. That was my point last year and
this year I think now with Paul Skens four and
zero in er just north of two, a whip under
(23:45):
one has made eight starts, has already struck out sixty
one hitters on the season. Like, if you're Major League Baseball,
you have got to find a way to put Paul
Skins into the All Star Game.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
No questions asked.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
And I think with Ellie de la Cruz, the problem
was that it was a very small sample size when
he actually came into the majors right before the All
Star break. Right, I'm not saying that Paul Skeins has
a lot, but he's a picture so it's a little
bit different. We don't see them as often, and Paul
Skens is getting standing ovations when they're playing away.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
I don't know if you've seen that. They take him out.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Of a game and the visit the await or the
home team, but not the pirates of fans. They're giving
him a standing ovation as he has struck out their players.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
That is the effect he is having. He's been here
two seconds.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
And it's not just Saint Louis No, but but this
is there's there's another level the Skeins as well. Where
and you're right, Led la Cruz made his debut on
June sixth.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Yeah, it was just a small sample size, but most
people wanted him to be.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
In an All Stars.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, and this is this is the point that it's
it's not the fact that there was a red that
was more deserving, or that there should be a pirate
that is more deserving. With Paul Skeens, it's like major
League Baseball. This is your baby, this is a showcase.
There's nothing else going on. Add a few roster spots,
(25:07):
make it for young stars in the game that we
can now become accustomed to, or give us a reason
we want to see what Paul Skeens would do against
Aaron Judge. Maybe we're not tuning in to the Yankees
Pirates game. Maybe Skeens doesn't face the Yankees in the
time that they play them. But if you can set
that up for TV in that setting, that is must
(25:28):
watch TV, and you don't have to take a spot
away from someone else, just add another They've done it
in the past, right, You mentioned who they do in
the past with the veterans, it was yeah, Poolroll's Cabrera.
So you've done that to add them. Why couldn't you
do it for young stars to help you grow the game?
And with Skeens being the number one overall pick that
he was in the year prior, that also adds juice
(25:51):
to your draft, which is trying to become more and
more of a product of Major League Baseball to sell
you can only do good bye having him in the
All Star Game.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
Yeah, putting him in the All Star Game is not
a prisoner of the moment. This isn't just based on
right now. Like you said, number one overall pick. I
believe he was the quickest to make his MLB debut
after being drafted because we talked about baseball is very hard.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
You hear about players that have been playing in the
minor leagues.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
For eleven years before they get their first hit in
Major League Baseball. That was not the situation for him.
So it's not a prisoner of the moment. It is
he is the moment right now for baseball. He's everything
you could want. Yeah, he plays for the Pirates, and
I ideally he would be playing.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
For the Yankees. Sure, the Dodgers, but I think that
actually adds to it.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I like that he's playing for a team like the
Pittsburgh Pirate. Yeah, I think that's pretty cool, you know
what I mean. So I'm with you. I don't see
how baseball does not do this. They would This would
be an epic fail if they don't put Paul Skins
in the All Star Game.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
I know it didn't football fans. Some football fans didn't
love seeing Taylor swift a lot. But the Libby Dunn equation,
he's also got to be a part of this, Yes,
Like you're bringing in a different audience with him being
a part of this. And if she's at the All
Star Game and she is on camera, that makes perfect
(27:15):
sense to try to make your brand bigger. I just
I don't know how I wouldn't put a past Major
League Baseball for whipping on this, but now it just
seems like it's even more so. Like I still felt
like Ellie de la Cruz deserved a spot last year.
He was the talk of baseball for the month of June.
And while there may have been twenty six other National
(27:36):
leaguers that were more worthy of All Star experience, you know,
of that All Star experience. We don't have to deprive
them of it. Just find a spot for him, figure
out a way for him to get into the game.
Do it with an American League star as well. Same
thing here. Find an American League star that you can
put into the game that maybe wouldn't normally do it.
But you got to figure out a way to put
Paul Skeins into the All Star Game.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
If baseball easily just was like, Okay, fans, what player
do you want to see in the All Star Game that.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Didn't get in?
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Paul Skins would automatically be the one to go. You
can easily put him in. It's literally a fastball down
the middle. There is no reason to with. Livy Dunn
is just an extra added bonus to this whole situation
because he is attracting people without Livy Dunn, who I
love liv Dune.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
If you're listening, girl, let's have a drink.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Uh, She's just an added bonus. But like you see
the kids at these games and they're wearing little mustaches.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
They're like, you know what if he's having the effect
already on kids.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Everybody is so interested in seeing what Paul Skins is
gonna do because most of his pitches are one hundred
plus miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
It's stupid.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
There are certain stories that transcend the normal conversation of
sports and or of your sport, and that's what's happening
in baseball.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
Yeah, and I feel like we yes like it happens,
but take advantage. Ellie de la Cruz show heyo Tani.
These are like those players that can do that, and
you have to take advantage of the moment and not
let it slip away.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
And you're no longer playing for home field advantage. Yeah, which,
by the way, I was never a huge fan of anyway.
I thought that was pretty absurd, especially the players that
were in the game usually had no interest, not even
no interest, but they were. The players that were not
in the game were usually on the worst teams because
you have to have a team representative. So you're having
(29:22):
like the pitcher from a last place team facing a
hitter from a second to last place team deciding on
who's going to get home field when you know in
the World Series when neither of those teams are going
to even smiff sniff. The postseason, there's not that on
the line anymore, So the outcome isn't as important, but
the showcase is the actual action is if I know
(29:44):
that Paul Skeins is going to throw the second inning,
I am making sure I'm tuning in, and guess what,
I'll start in and tune in on Fox, and I'll
take in the first inning as well and watch the
second inning, and maybe I'm hooked and I end up
staying for the rest of the evening for it, or
at least until the the game is in hand. But
you cannot fumble this bag major League Baseball. You have
(30:05):
got the figure out of way, whether it be Ellie
de Lacruz last year of Paul Skins this year, to
get them to the Midsummer Classic.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Yeah, and the Pirates could make the playoffs. I mean
they're not completely out of it. There's a chance.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
That adds to it too.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
You know, it's not like they're in last place and
not competing for a spot.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
And you don't want them to take another spot from
an All star. Burst even mentioned a couple of Bucks
players that could be All Star worthy. And that's what's
so important about this. It's not taking it away from someone.
Major League Baseball doesn't have to do that. They just
need to add them yeah to it, and then you
wouldn't be taking a spot away from a teammate or
(30:44):
somebody else in Major League Baseball. So who are the
Pirate candidates that you would like?
Speaker 7 (30:49):
Jared Jones Jared Jones is he's gotten rocked in his
last couple starts, but he's still a very strong young starter.
Mitch Keller is having a great season, Brian Reynolds could
even outfield this pretty week in the end of NL,
So Brian Reynolds can sneak in.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
But no, and no disrespect to those guys. If there
was a pirate, it's more important to baseball to do so.
But we're saying no, let those guys get in, let
them get their All Star moment. Just make room like
you did for Pools and Cabrera. To your point, do
that two weeks from yes's gosh, it's it's is it
three weeks? It's three weeks from today? Is the All
Star Game? You know? How come I knew that? It's
(31:26):
my half birthday July sixteenth, Yeah, my half birthday is
the All Star Game this year?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Great, so that means it's my half birthday nine days after.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
That, Yes, July July twenty fifth, Manzi's half birthday. He's
a birthday guy. Hit them up at Monzi Belania. You
can find me at dan Byro on Fox. By the way,
during our show today, Manzi tweeted a clip from her
and Steve Hartman two days ago. So if anybody that's
not necessarily familiar with Steve or me that is not
me in the clip that was from Saturday that Manzi
(31:55):
chose to promote her show. I get it. I understand
that was kind of totally good, totally understanding all that.
I totally understand that that's another Steve Hartman drop. All right,
coming up next, eizag Low and Crown is going to
give us the headlines of the day plus some interesting
news from the NBA. She's Moncey. I'm Dan. That's next
here on Fox. Thanks for listening to The Doug Gotlib

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Doug Gottlieb Show. Here on Fox Sports Radio. I'm Dan
by her. She's Moncey Belangyo, sitting in for Doug. We're
actually going to be in tomorrow. Doug's been sitting in
for Colin Cowherd on the Herd.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That's right. Keep doing that, Doug, So.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Monsey and I'll hang out on opposite ends of the
JJ Reddick f bomb conversation. And I guess my biggest
takeaway from all of this is that the crew that
I work with has no problems swearing in front of
their elbows. Where I it just immortified. I just said
to Manzi during the break, like if I was to
(33:06):
swear in front of my mom, it would be like
an out of body experience that I would be looking
at myself like what are you doing? And I'm not
at her, just saying, you know, a word that I
shouldn't say in her vicinity. Where Sam they apparently had
a ritual in Iowa when he turned twenty to cleanse
him of all of the possible badness. And then it's
(33:27):
just it's it's guns Ablazon with the curse words right
in Iowa City.
Speaker 9 (33:32):
Yeahah, what was more so of my parents are just
looking at me and my sister as adults now and
they're like, hey, we've been waiting to finally talk like
this for a long time.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Sure, I'm joining it. And I can't wait till Sam
drops an MF or around us. I cannot wait for
this and then the floodgates. Oh yes, I just can't
do it. It is still it is weird for me. Again,
I understand and maybe an eighty year old preacher in
saying this, but it's still odd. It's not that I
don't swear right, yeah, at that certain company.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
I think once you do it one time in front
of your parents, and then you do a second and
third time, then you.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Just don't even notice it. And my parents don't curse.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
I mean, my mom says one bad word, but it
doesn't sound it's an English word, but because she has
an accent, you can't tell.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
You know what I say, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
And it's like, oh, she's saying a bad word, the
S word, but you don't understand because she does an accents,
that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
So that's literally all she ever says.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
It's like a pretty nice free pass. Yeah, yeah, it
works out well. Isaac here with the press told her.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
That's not what she's saying.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
The press, I'm going to start saying.
Speaker 3 (34:39):
That now, say really though, really.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Man, my we we had a conversation about no Cap,
No Cap, the the nine year old kid in our neighborhood,
ourgin the other day. It was like, no cap, Brody's
pretty good, right, this bike like just just an argent,
(35:04):
happy belated birthday. But yeah, it was great it was like,
I'm like, all right, it was really good at riding
this bike.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
It argent, Yeah, it was great Gucci, No cap it.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Was it was. It was like it was a part
of his you know, lexicon throughout his entire life.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Go home for dinner now it was Gucci blood. You
should have say it.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
Was magnificent, for real, for real, No cap. Isaac longkran
here with the Press.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Dan and Monse.
Speaker 8 (35:31):
If you haven't had your fill of Kansas City Chiefs
related romance from Travis and Taylor, the Hallmark Channel is
teaming up with the Chiefs for a new movie called
Holiday Touchdown, a Chief's love Story.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
Stop it right now, I'm not.
Speaker 8 (35:48):
Making any of this up. The plot is described thusly,
and I quote. Anna Higman is sure that her family's
lifelong history as Chiefs super fans makes them the front
runner to win the Temes Fan of the Year contest. Derek,
the Chiefs director of fan Engagement, is tasked with evaluating
how Alana and her family stack up. As the pair
(36:10):
spends time together, it's clear there's a spark, but when
Alana's grandfather's lucky vintage Chief's winter hat goes missing, Alana
begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny, and
even questions her future with Derek unless that is a
little Christmas magic can throw hail. Mary unquotes, all.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Right, I'm starting to hate the chief. I mean the
winning is enough as it is. Now we're doing this.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Yeah, I mean that's what homework is.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
Ridiculous In their holiday movies, they're cheesy, they're silly, but
it's almost like why, almost.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Like we're trying too hard here?
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Ridiculous?
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Why we didn't yet know we're trying too hard?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Is there is there a Raiders one on Investigation Discovery?
Is that what's gonna happen?
Speaker 8 (37:09):
Yeah, it's gonna It's gonna err on True TV. Speaking
of NFL shows, Hard Knocks has expanded to the NFL
off season. Today, they released the trailer for Hard Knocks
off season with the New York Giants. It features audio
from Daniel Jones and of GM Joe Shane speaking with
former Giants running back Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 6 (37:31):
I am five months from the surgery, so progressing that
I've gotten.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Hurt, but not like this, thank one. Can you give
me your word on that? Or are you're not gonna
give us a chance.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
My job is to do what's best for the franchise.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
That's go wow. The show I don't care about about
a team. I don't care about this is this is
Hard Knocks. What makes Hard Knocks great was the training camp.
There's way too much knocks going on right here. There's
way too much Hard Knocks happening with the NFL. Just
do this. Six weeks of training camp, that's all I wanta.
(38:02):
Way too much hard knocks. The parking lot attendance. Yeah, seriously,
this is Knocks time right here. I didn't watch the
end season ones. I heard they were all right, but
it's just I love the training camp point.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
Yeah, no, that was fun. I agree.
Speaker 4 (38:15):
I didn't think I was gonna watch the Hallmark movie,
but I'm gonna watch that Hallmark movie over this.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I might as well get out there, impress. That was
the press. Monsie and I will agree to disagree, but
we will reconvene tomorrow. At least we're on the same
page as this. Paul Skeins should be an All Stars
talk to you tomorrow here on Fox B

A round of applause for Monzi, who survived a flight
from Vegas to LA on Spirit Airlines. That's right, welcome,
thank you, thank you.

it is a big accomplishment that I made it to

and my flight was not delayed.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
There was no perfect that's I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
My biggest pet peeve is when media members go on
Twitter to complain about airlines and feel like they are
about to just bury Delta. That is like Delta. You
are not going to recover from my seventeen thousand followers
in my localized region where we don't even have a
Delta hub. But for some reason, I'm flying Delta. It
is one of my favorites of just United Air. You
(01:18):
are gonna get the wrath of me like nobody cares.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Nobody cares.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I'm glad that you had a successful flights. Spirit sometimes
gets the short end of the stick. But you had
an enjoyable experience on your flight.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Easy.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Yes, I was actually upset at going to the airport
two hours before because I didn't need to.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
That's how easy of an experience.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I correct, though, plenty of time to plenty of time
to kill it.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah, you know what I did. I listened to JJ Reddick.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well that's good, and we're going to get into JJ
Redick because JJ Reddick had a lot to say, some
of which he shouldn't have said. Manzi, But I just
have one more order of business before we dive into this.
So we have a Stanley Cup champion in the Florida Panthers.
We have an NBA champion in the Boston Celtics. The
(02:03):
College World Series is now over as tennesse se brought
home the title last night, and we are officially in
the summer, as we have made it past the summer solstice, correct, Iowa, Sam?
Is this good to call it summer?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Now?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Are we good? The gatekeeper of when summer actually is approved?
We are in summer. Welcome in. It is the Doug
Gottlieb Show. She's Monse, I'm Dan Beyer, and we are
talking about what everyone is talking about, and that is
the F bomb heard around the world yesterday from Lakers
head coach JJ Reddick in his introductory press conference as
(02:38):
the Lakers head coach. If you missed it, we got
good news for you. Here it is.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
I've certainly heard everything. It's been a really interesting six
weeks or so just in terms of, you know, being
part of the engagement farming industry. You know, it's been
really interesting. However, I don't have a great answer for
your question because I really don't give it, like honestly, hmmm.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
All right, and then the Lakers under JJ Redick start out, Oh,
to one, you do not drop an F bomb and
think that you've won anything when you are being introduced
as a head coach to one of the most storied
franchises in the NBA, the biggest brand in the NBA,
the twenty ninth head coach of that franchise. You are
not gaining anything by dropping an F bomb, JJ Reddick,
(03:28):
and the Lakers are oho to one in his ten
year as head coach.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Are you yelling, get off my lawn? That's what it
sounds right.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I'm in place, mansei time, in place for everything, Okay.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
I just don't understand, like how we are so phyxiated
on that. In reality, there was other things that he
said that we should be discussing.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yet people want to talk about this F bomb.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
And he was talking about himself in the moment, and
I know he said it again, but in that moment
when he's asked, he was asked, what misconceptions are you
going to, you know, try to disprove, and he was like.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Over it, He's heard it all right now. It has
been an interesting six weeks.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I don't know what it's like to be JJ Reddick
being told I'm your number one choice. Wait, I'm one
B actually, and you're only coming back to me because
one A turned you down. And yes, I have no
prior head coaching experience, which everyone in their mom is
talking about he was talking in the moment about himself,
and I just felt that it wasn't fake. And I
think that a lot of people have a problem with
(04:24):
this because they have a problem with JJ Reddick himself
prior to this How did you feel about JJ Redick?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
How did I feel about JJ Redick.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Prior to this press conference?
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, I thought I thought he was a heck of
a player. I thought that the hire was made by
Lebron James, and I thought that there were other qualified
candidates that should have gotten the job. I said yesterday
that they're trying to surround him with a veteran staff,
and so I'm like, well, then why not hire a
veteran if that's what you were looking for. That's how
I feel about JJ Reddick. I felt Sam Cassell maybe
(04:56):
would have been a better hire. Maybe he didn't want
the job, maybe.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
You know, the other options that everybody was talking about.
I was like, maybe they just didn't want the job.
But I still don't think you answered the question what
did you feel about JJ Reddick as a person prior
to all of this.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I feel like a lot of people don't like him.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
A lot of people find him arrogant, and cocky, which
I think he is.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
But I also don't think he's a fake guy.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I think he's calculated, but he's who he is and
stoic at times. And I feel that one of the
reasons that the Lakers liked JJ Reddick, or maybe they
just are pretending that they like him, is that he
is going to relate to the younger crowd. And this
whole thing about cursing the time and place, I feel
like we're in a different time. I mean, you know,
you interviewed me. I may have thrown in a bit
(05:37):
of a curse word when you interviewed me, not the
same one obvious sleep time and place.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Actually, this is true. I did interview Manzi and did
bring Manzi, hired her to Fox Sports Radio, but you
didn't drop an f mond No. I wasn't enough when
I asked, what you know you felt that you could
bring this Fox Sports Radio. I know, I said, Manzi,
would you like to be a part of our team?
And then you did have a swear word after that.
(06:04):
But that is different. That's different if he's having the
private conversation with Rob Polinka, I get that he is
who he is, but he is now the Lakers head coach,
and you are not the same person the day before.
You are now the Lakers head coach, time and place
with everything. He has his own podcast where he and
(06:25):
Lebron could have traded f bombs for fifty minutes. It
just does not translate. Well, I'll give you an example.
Travis kelce You love Travis kelce right, the story of
the week, the story of the week for him being
on stage with his girlfriend Taylor Swift. Yeah, this is
Travis kelcey talking about the haters with the Busting with
(06:47):
the Boys podcast from Barstool. This is what Travis kelce
had to say about the haters. I know what's real
when I walk into the building. I know where my
intentions are and I know who I am as like
a person, right, So it's like, yeah, I guess I'm
not having the success or. It's you know, people are
taking having some hot takes on me and on what
I got going on on the field and off.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
But for the most part, man, I just I really
don't give. I just have the I don't give a
damn syndrome and I.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Just keep it moving.
Speaker 7 (07:16):
Man.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
It's lovely. I sleep wonderful at night. Yeah, you know.
I'm just I'll have a few beers if things are
getting you know, they're too fun or too bad, and
it'll just be, you know, onto the next one. Man.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Yeah, Travis Kelsey is legit hated by almost everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
JJ Reddick. I don't think that's the situation. I don't think.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
I just think he gives people like a vibe that
he's that he thinks he's smarter than you. That's the
vibe that I think people get from JJ Reddick. That's
why I don't like him.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
You know, did that sound out of place? Travis Kelsey
saying that, yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It actually sounded a little too calm for it to be.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Travis Kelsey, I thought that it sounded fine. I thought
it's in a podcast form. You're doing it with other athletes,
your peers, guys you've played against in your career. There
is something to that. There is a time and place
for it. We've seen it on TV shows. FX now
has whatever you want to say, right. There's a difference though,
(08:16):
between being introduced as a head coach of the Lakers
and having a podcast or talking with Rob Polinka or
having a show on FX. That is not the time
to do it and I feel that the people that
he was talking to are the same people that you
aren't going to change their minds, and the fans that
you may have gotten by dropping an F bomb are
(08:37):
going to leave you just as quickly as they jumped
on board because you said the F bomb the first
four game losing streak of the first time that Lebron
looks like he's frustrated with his head coach, Bye bye,
They're not going to stick around. So you also have
to know your consequences in who you're actually talking to.
And at that point, you may have won a couple
of fans, but those fans are going to be there
(08:58):
for the long haul. And that's where he misses the mark.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
I mean, I think it's different right now because neither
of us is a Lakers fan, right so I'm looking
at this as a guy who's not my coach, and
maybe that's why I wasn't bothered by it at all.
I'm thinking I thought, would I be upset if if
ty Lu did this, you know, when he was hired,
And I truly don't think it would have bothered me.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
I think JJ Reddick is.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Literally in a lose, lose, lose, maybe win situation, So like,
who cares if he said this, are we gonna be
talking about this if they start five to zero? You know,
like he's there's nothing he can do right, Everybody is
waiting for results, and if the results are good, then
this isn't gonna matter. If the results aren't good, it's
gonna be brought up again. But he all we're doing
is waiting.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
To see what he's gonna do.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
And an F bomb dropped here in what you're saying,
time and place not the time and place.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
To me, it's like he he's It showed a little
bit of passion, and it showed that he cared. And
I don't have a problem with that.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So passion if he was like, we're gonna win the
bleep in Western Conference, he was talking to and that
is a very JJ reddick thing. And as a coach,
I think you have to be able to process that.
I shouldn't say this if I am now the head
coach of the Lakers, or is this about me? Or
is this about the Lakers and being the Lakers head coach?
(10:16):
And that's where he completely misses the ball. And I
think it wrung a bunch of people's ears the wrong way.
I'm curious. I don't want to sound like, get off
my long, guy, but we do have peers here at
Fox Sports Radio Iowa, Sam Ryan Bersinger, Isaac Lohenkron. I
want to start with Isaac if he's available, because he
is a media veteran. Did it hit your ear wrong
(10:40):
at all when you heard JJ Reddick drop that F
bomb yesterday?
Speaker 8 (10:43):
Well, for first of all, I am not your peer.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
I'm way down.
Speaker 8 (10:50):
Below Blan thought I was going to say it the
other way. A good afternoon. By the way, yes it
did because a lot of networks and radio stations were
carrying that live. And I understand that that's part of
the deal with modern athletes when doing these live and
(11:11):
if use, they happen all the time postgame, but time
and place, Time and place an introductory press conference is
a different form and a venue than just after you
want a hard fought game and haven't had a chance
to cool off.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
First impression, My first impression of you, Monty was the
actual interview, when you actually swore on the phone to
me when I offered you the job, I had already
spoken with you, so I felt I had a little
bit of a basis with you.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Sure, but he already got the job, so he's good.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Like that initial conversation is what he had with Rob
Polinka and Jeanie Buss. At this point, it's like, again,
I think he's just in a situation where it's lose lose,
lose slightly win.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Could he have not said it?
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
But is it that big of a deal.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
No, Ryan Berschinger, I feel like you are not of
my generation. Not to name ages here, How did you
feel about yesterday?
Speaker 7 (12:03):
You know, when I first heard it, I didn't really
think anything of it, But I think that's That's kind
of the interesting point though, is the fact that it
wasn't really surprising, because I think we've grown accustomed to,
especially younger guys like this. I mean, we heard a
lot from players we and I'm sure he's not the
first coach to talk this way in their press conference.
But at the same time, like, it wasn't something that
(12:25):
surprised me, and then when I kind of unpacked that
a little more, it actually is surprising because you look
at the fact that he did just come from the
media world, and he would know that, like everybody behind
the camera tenses up the second.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
That somebody does that. Sure, because we're all for us here.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
If you guys happen to curse on air, both like,
it doesn't matter even if we zone out for a second,
we are conditioned to like suddenly freak out and jump
in our chairs to do something about it. So yeah,
when you think about it more, you realize you weren't
getting JJ Reddick, the ESPN NBA analyst. You were getting
the podcast host. And maybe if you dive more into
(13:04):
that and see, is that more than the angle that
he's going to come at as a coach. I don't
know if that's reading too much into it, but I
did think it was interesting from that angle.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
And by the way, on second thought, I just remembered
that generationally, remember Roy Williams at Kansas just after they
lost the national championship. He cursed live in that post
interview when he was asked about going to North Carolina.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
It is something that I think we're more accustomed to.
But in this realm that we work in. You're right,
if I hear somebody even I tense up right naturally.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
But if this was.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
All that you took away from the press conference, that's
my problem with that. You know, It's like he said,
so much more. He gave specifics as to how he
wants to improve the Lakers and how they can actually win,
and instead we are discussing his f bombs and I
just don't get.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
That's why it was so important for him to not
say it, because it distracted from everything else that he said. Iowa, Sam,
I wanted him to get his last word because I
think I was. Sam agrees with me.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah, I know why we're doing this topic.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I just want to ask everyone just because I want
to see you just want to see.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Yeah, survey, I agree.
Speaker 9 (14:13):
No, I I didn't like you already had the votes.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Man.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Yeah, I know clearly this happened before I got here.
Speaker 9 (14:18):
I think it was cringey and unprofessional.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Cringey.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Yeah, it was a bomb.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Well, it's because of the time and the place. I
thought it was cringing and professionally. You're up there wearing
a suit and you're it's an introductory press conference. Great
point by Isaac. It's being carried live by other radio
and TV outlets. But I also understand that your point,
MANCI where you're like, listen, he said a lot of
things of substance, and we should also focus on that.
But I think it was distracting to dance. Point I
(14:46):
just like I looked at I saw Rob Polinka's face
after he said the first I think He's said the
effort effort twice, but the first time he sort of
looked a little uncomfortable for a moment. And what Rob
Polinka probably just forgot about it, Larry, he didn't really
care about it afterwards. Profanities have been I feel like
slowly infiltrating like movies and pop culture, like especially like
the harder words, like you know, the F word and
(15:08):
stuff for like the last forty five fifty years, you're
hearing it more and more, and then, like in comedies
of today, you hear it just so much that maybe
it's like lost its power.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
That's that's that's such a It's such an interesting line though,
because there are comedians who feel that using a curse
word is a crutch, right, It is only done for
a fact that you can't be funny with your mind
and your words, But then it has to you have
to for a too long that you have to.
Speaker 9 (15:32):
Crust should be used as a punctuation, not as a
constant filler in sentences in between words.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
I actually agree that comedians who use it. It's like
a cop out because you're trying to be funny. But
I also think that there are times when there is
no other word but an F bomb to get across
what you're trying to say. As somebody who loves to curse,
away from the microphones, I curse.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
I curse a lot too.
Speaker 9 (15:54):
But when I'm at like the grocery store and I'm
in front of some like ten year old little boy,
or I see some viral video of a ten year
old boy like cursing out his mom and using all
this vulgar, horrible language and profanities, I'm like, I feel bad.
I'm like, man, they got failed along the way, And
this is where this in this kind of situation, this
is where you don't curse in your introductory press conference.
There needs to be a little bit of a line
(16:15):
of separation there.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
A ten year old vulgar cursing a parent is not with.
Speaker 9 (16:20):
JJ Reddick, but it's a symptom of that. It's where
we make it too casual for cursing in a situation
like that, and then it starts to trickle down to
people who are younger and maybe don't understand what they're
saying that's my opinion.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
So JJ Reddick has a responsibility to raise kids, right.
Speaker 9 (16:38):
He's not raising each children. It's when you're in a
professional setting, in an introductory press conference where you're introducing
yourself to millions of more people that knew you before.
Maybe just it's just a bad look.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
I just think it's sound professional, it's too casual. I
think the fact that JJ Reddick again fellat it was
more important to be JJ Reddick than the Lakers head
coach in that moment. He can he can f bomb
to the cows come home, you know, for today until
whenever with his team, with the refs, however he wants
to do it. But that's setting in where you didn't
(17:12):
like they didn't just lose a heartbreaking game by a
three at the buzzer, where you want to say those words,
You want to scream like he did it for effect
to a group of haters air quotes that again, really
don't care if he said it or not. But what
you did is you offended a lot of other people
around and just kind of shed a little bit more
light to maybe what your motivation may be. That's the
(17:34):
problem I have with it. Time and place you can
do it whenever he wants. That wasn't the time and place.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
I honestly feel a lot of this really stems from
how people already had it dislike towards him and his
attitude and his cockiness, which he is.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
He is cocky. He comes off that way, and you
know he.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Went to Duke, so he's been cocky for a while.
But I think that stems more from it. I'm really curious,
like if Steve Nash would have said this F bomb
when he was introduced as the nets Head coach.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
I don't know if it would have been this negative
of a reaction.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
I feel like it has to do more because JJ Reddick,
like everybody's like he's underqualified. He's just this guy who
went to Duke and his friends with Lebron, And I
think that's where this really stems from. Why everyone's having
such a problem with it, and not everybody. There's a
lot of people who really doesn't care either. But when
I go on social media and I read the people
(18:26):
who are mad, they're like, I never liked that arrogant guy.
So it's like, okay, so you just have feelings already
about him, and this just propelled you to feel like
that even more.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Well, he played into it if that's you know, if
that's the persona. But when you're the Lakers head coach,
they're bigger fish to fry than being the hated villain
from Duke and the shit that could shoot the lights out.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
And you also said like, I want him to be
the Lakers head coach, like I wanted him to personify
that and not just to be himself or something like that.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Right, we just said, who cares if he's just himself?
Like this, isn't that what you want?
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Though a little bit more of transparency, and he was
transparent and everything he said he.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Has he has. He has days and weeks to be
able to to prove that that was just that was
not the setting. It's not you don't go in there
and be like, man, I can't wait to drop this
f bomb and put them on their ears. And that's
what I felt like. He was waiting for that opportunity
to do so, and I could he's he could have
said I don't give a bleep and it would have
had the same effect of that, except we wouldn't all
(19:28):
be in a hubbub. We would have been like, all right,
he doesn't care about the haters. But for some reason
he took this step to use the F word more
than once and feels that it's no issue like that's
that's that's the whole issue of people don't think that
you're qualified to be the Lakers head coach in day one?
Is this test and you fail it with a big
(19:49):
giant f hun intended. You know what, We're gonna play
some audio coming up next. Well, see if whose mind
may be changed? Okay, because there is a specific piece
of audio that may change your opinion on this whole deal.
Maybe MONSI will come to my side, maybe I'll jump
to her side. We're gonna play it next. Hit her
(20:10):

This is how we cure major League baseball. MANSI, who's
one of the biggest names in Major League Baseball right
now that you you just you love as a player
because of everything that is not only on the field
but off the field.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Are you setting me up for the segment?
Speaker 7 (21:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Completely, Yeah, I don't. I don't want to.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
I was like, is this Paul sire, Let's.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Pull the curtain back. This is something we discussed before
the show. You said that you you know you love
this dating situation.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Yeah, winning at life, bro winning at live.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Paul schemes in every shape and form.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
I wasn't sure if I was supposed to give you
a different answer, that's all.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
It's like, are we wanting to give you this?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
All right, Paul, that's all right. We do prep for
the show, but hey, it's all. It's what we do.
I'm just glad you didn't say anybody else, because then
I'd have to say Bursch, Now, who would you think?
And then we could start the topic. But no, Paul
Skeens is a is a name, and there are This
happens time and again. I think it happened. It happened
(22:20):
a while ago. I know that you know, he's no
longer in the league and wasn't the same pitcher that
he was early. But the Mets had a Matt Harvey day,
and I think that you're getting to the point where
you have a Paul Skeen's day when Paul Skeens is
pitching for the Pittsburgh Pirates and Jeff Passing within the
last twenty four to forty eight hours had tweeted that
(22:42):
Paul Skeens needs to get to the all Star Game.
And I don't think anybody here and anybody, even if
you think that it's okay for JJ Reddick to swear,
I don't know anybody that would be against Paul Skeens
going to the All Star Game. And it just it
backs up a point that I brought up last year.
Then I know some didn't like, but you know who
(23:02):
we were, You know who we were in love with
leading up to the All Star Game and excited about
in late May and into June and had all of
our attention Ellie de la Cruz. Now, Ellie de la
Cruz's time in the major leagues at that point may
not have been sufficient enough to be an All Star.
(23:24):
But if the All Star Game is what it is
meant to be and honor the game's best but also
be a showcase for Major League Baseball, you got to
figure out a way to get Ellie de la Cruz
in the game. That was my point last year and
this year I think now with Paul Skens four and
zero in er just north of two, a whip under
(23:45):
one has made eight starts, has already struck out sixty
one hitters on the season. Like, if you're Major League Baseball,
you have got to find a way to put Paul
Skins into the All Star Game.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
No questions asked.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
And I think with Ellie de la Cruz, the problem
was that it was a very small sample size when
he actually came into the majors right before the All
Star break. Right, I'm not saying that Paul Skeins has
a lot, but he's a picture so it's a little
bit different. We don't see them as often, and Paul
Skens is getting standing ovations when they're playing away.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
I don't know if you've seen that. They take him out.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Of a game and the visit the await or the
home team, but not the pirates of fans. They're giving
him a standing ovation as he has struck out their players.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
That is the effect he is having. He's been here
two seconds.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
And it's not just Saint Louis No, but but this
is there's there's another level the Skeins as well. Where
and you're right, Led la Cruz made his debut on
June sixth.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Yeah, it was just a small sample size, but most
people wanted him to be.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
In an All Stars.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, and this is this is the point that it's
it's not the fact that there was a red that
was more deserving, or that there should be a pirate
that is more deserving. With Paul Skeens, it's like major
League Baseball. This is your baby, this is a showcase.
There's nothing else going on. Add a few roster spots,
(25:07):
make it for young stars in the game that we
can now become accustomed to, or give us a reason
we want to see what Paul Skeens would do against
Aaron Judge. Maybe we're not tuning in to the Yankees
Pirates game. Maybe Skeens doesn't face the Yankees in the
time that they play them. But if you can set
that up for TV in that setting, that is must
(25:28):
watch TV, and you don't have to take a spot
away from someone else, just add another They've done it
in the past, right, You mentioned who they do in
the past with the veterans, it was yeah, Poolroll's Cabrera.
So you've done that to add them. Why couldn't you
do it for young stars to help you grow the game?
And with Skeens being the number one overall pick that
he was in the year prior, that also adds juice
(25:51):
to your draft, which is trying to become more and
more of a product of Major League Baseball to sell
you can only do good bye having him in the
All Star Game.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
Yeah, putting him in the All Star Game is not
a prisoner of the moment. This isn't just based on
right now. Like you said, number one overall pick. I
believe he was the quickest to make his MLB debut
after being drafted because we talked about baseball is very hard.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
You hear about players that have been playing in the
minor leagues.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
For eleven years before they get their first hit in
Major League Baseball. That was not the situation for him.
So it's not a prisoner of the moment. It is
he is the moment right now for baseball. He's everything
you could want. Yeah, he plays for the Pirates, and
I ideally he would be playing.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
For the Yankees. Sure, the Dodgers, but I think that
actually adds to it.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
I like that he's playing for a team like the
Pittsburgh Pirate. Yeah, I think that's pretty cool, you know
what I mean. So I'm with you. I don't see
how baseball does not do this. They would This would
be an epic fail if they don't put Paul Skins
in the All Star Game.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
I know it didn't football fans. Some football fans didn't
love seeing Taylor swift a lot. But the Libby Dunn equation,
he's also got to be a part of this, Yes,
Like you're bringing in a different audience with him being
a part of this. And if she's at the All
Star Game and she is on camera, that makes perfect
(27:15):
sense to try to make your brand bigger. I just
I don't know how I wouldn't put a past Major
League Baseball for whipping on this, but now it just
seems like it's even more so. Like I still felt
like Ellie de la Cruz deserved a spot last year.
He was the talk of baseball for the month of June.
And while there may have been twenty six other National
(27:36):
leaguers that were more worthy of All Star experience, you know,
of that All Star experience. We don't have to deprive
them of it. Just find a spot for him, figure
out a way for him to get into the game.
Do it with an American League star as well. Same
thing here. Find an American League star that you can
put into the game that maybe wouldn't normally do it.
But you got to figure out a way to put
Paul Skeins into the All Star Game.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
If baseball easily just was like, Okay, fans, what player
do you want to see in the All Star Game that.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Didn't get in?
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Paul Skins would automatically be the one to go. You
can easily put him in. It's literally a fastball down
the middle. There is no reason to with. Livy Dunn
is just an extra added bonus to this whole situation
because he is attracting people without Livy Dunn, who I
love liv Dune.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
If you're listening, girl, let's have a drink.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Uh, She's just an added bonus. But like you see
the kids at these games and they're wearing little mustaches.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
They're like, you know what if he's having the effect
already on kids.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Everybody is so interested in seeing what Paul Skins is
gonna do because most of his pitches are one hundred
plus miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
It's stupid.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
There are certain stories that transcend the normal conversation of
sports and or of your sport, and that's what's happening
in baseball.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
Yeah, and I feel like we yes like it happens,
but take advantage. Ellie de la Cruz show heyo Tani.
These are like those players that can do that, and
you have to take advantage of the moment and not
let it slip away.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
And you're no longer playing for home field advantage. Yeah, which,
by the way, I was never a huge fan of anyway.
I thought that was pretty absurd, especially the players that
were in the game usually had no interest, not even
no interest, but they were. The players that were not
in the game were usually on the worst teams because
you have to have a team representative. So you're having
(29:22):
like the pitcher from a last place team facing a
hitter from a second to last place team deciding on
who's going to get home field when you know in
the World Series when neither of those teams are going
to even smiff sniff. The postseason, there's not that on
the line anymore, So the outcome isn't as important, but
the showcase is the actual action is if I know
(29:44):
that Paul Skeins is going to throw the second inning,
I am making sure I'm tuning in, and guess what,
I'll start in and tune in on Fox, and I'll
take in the first inning as well and watch the
second inning, and maybe I'm hooked and I end up
staying for the rest of the evening for it, or
at least until the the game is in hand. But
you cannot fumble this bag major League Baseball. You have
(30:05):
got the figure out of way, whether it be Ellie
de Lacruz last year of Paul Skins this year, to
get them to the Midsummer Classic.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Yeah, and the Pirates could make the playoffs. I mean
they're not completely out of it. There's a chance.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
That adds to it too.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
You know, it's not like they're in last place and
not competing for a spot.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
And you don't want them to take another spot from
an All star. Burst even mentioned a couple of Bucks
players that could be All Star worthy. And that's what's
so important about this. It's not taking it away from someone.
Major League Baseball doesn't have to do that. They just
need to add them yeah to it, and then you
wouldn't be taking a spot away from a teammate or
(30:44):
somebody else in Major League Baseball. So who are the
Pirate candidates that you would like?
Speaker 7 (30:49):
Jared Jones Jared Jones is he's gotten rocked in his
last couple starts, but he's still a very strong young starter.
Mitch Keller is having a great season, Brian Reynolds could
even outfield this pretty week in the end of NL,
So Brian Reynolds can sneak in.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
But no, and no disrespect to those guys. If there
was a pirate, it's more important to baseball to do so.
But we're saying no, let those guys get in, let
them get their All Star moment. Just make room like
you did for Pools and Cabrera. To your point, do
that two weeks from yes's gosh, it's it's is it
three weeks? It's three weeks from today? Is the All
Star Game? You know? How come I knew that? It's
(31:26):
my half birthday July sixteenth, Yeah, my half birthday is
the All Star Game this year?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Great, so that means it's my half birthday nine days after.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
That, Yes, July July twenty fifth, Manzi's half birthday. He's
a birthday guy. Hit them up at Monzi Belania. You
can find me at dan Byro on Fox. By the way,
during our show today, Manzi tweeted a clip from her
and Steve Hartman two days ago. So if anybody that's
not necessarily familiar with Steve or me that is not
me in the clip that was from Saturday that Manzi
(31:55):
chose to promote her show. I get it. I understand
that was kind of totally good, totally understanding all that.
I totally understand that that's another Steve Hartman drop. All right,
coming up next, eizag Low and Crown is going to
give us the headlines of the day plus some interesting
news from the NBA. She's Moncey. I'm Dan. That's next
here on Fox. Thanks for listening to The Doug Gotlib

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Doug Gottlieb Show. Here on Fox Sports Radio. I'm Dan
by her. She's Moncey Belangyo, sitting in for Doug. We're
actually going to be in tomorrow. Doug's been sitting in
for Colin Cowherd on the Herd.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That's right. Keep doing that, Doug, So.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Monsey and I'll hang out on opposite ends of the
JJ Reddick f bomb conversation. And I guess my biggest
takeaway from all of this is that the crew that
I work with has no problems swearing in front of
their elbows. Where I it just immortified. I just said
to Manzi during the break, like if I was to
(33:06):
swear in front of my mom, it would be like
an out of body experience that I would be looking
at myself like what are you doing? And I'm not
at her, just saying, you know, a word that I
shouldn't say in her vicinity. Where Sam they apparently had
a ritual in Iowa when he turned twenty to cleanse
him of all of the possible badness. And then it's
(33:27):
just it's it's guns Ablazon with the curse words right
in Iowa City.
Speaker 9 (33:32):
Yeahah, what was more so of my parents are just
looking at me and my sister as adults now and
they're like, hey, we've been waiting to finally talk like
this for a long time.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Sure, I'm joining it. And I can't wait till Sam
drops an MF or around us. I cannot wait for
this and then the floodgates. Oh yes, I just can't
do it. It is still it is weird for me. Again,
I understand and maybe an eighty year old preacher in
saying this, but it's still odd. It's not that I
don't swear right, yeah, at that certain company.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
I think once you do it one time in front
of your parents, and then you do a second and
third time, then you.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Just don't even notice it. And my parents don't curse.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
I mean, my mom says one bad word, but it
doesn't sound it's an English word, but because she has
an accent, you can't tell.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
You know what I say, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
And it's like, oh, she's saying a bad word, the
S word, but you don't understand because she does an accents,
that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
So that's literally all she ever says.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
It's like a pretty nice free pass. Yeah, yeah, it
works out well. Isaac here with the press told her.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
That's not what she's saying.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
The press, I'm going to start saying.
Speaker 3 (34:39):
That now, say really though, really.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Man, my we we had a conversation about no Cap,
No Cap, the the nine year old kid in our neighborhood,
ourgin the other day. It was like, no cap, Brody's
pretty good, right, this bike like just just an argent,
(35:04):
happy belated birthday. But yeah, it was great it was like,
I'm like, all right, it was really good at riding
this bike.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
It argent, Yeah, it was great Gucci, No cap it.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Was it was. It was like it was a part
of his you know, lexicon throughout his entire life.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Go home for dinner now it was Gucci blood. You
should have say it.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
Was magnificent, for real, for real, No cap. Isaac longkran
here with the Press.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Dan and Monse.
Speaker 8 (35:31):
If you haven't had your fill of Kansas City Chiefs
related romance from Travis and Taylor, the Hallmark Channel is
teaming up with the Chiefs for a new movie called
Holiday Touchdown, a Chief's love Story.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
Stop it right now, I'm not.
Speaker 8 (35:48):
Making any of this up. The plot is described thusly,
and I quote. Anna Higman is sure that her family's
lifelong history as Chiefs super fans makes them the front
runner to win the Temes Fan of the Year contest. Derek,
the Chiefs director of fan Engagement, is tasked with evaluating
how Alana and her family stack up. As the pair
(36:10):
spends time together, it's clear there's a spark, but when
Alana's grandfather's lucky vintage Chief's winter hat goes missing, Alana
begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny, and
even questions her future with Derek unless that is a
little Christmas magic can throw hail. Mary unquotes, all.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Right, I'm starting to hate the chief. I mean the
winning is enough as it is. Now we're doing this.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Yeah, I mean that's what homework is.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
Ridiculous In their holiday movies, they're cheesy, they're silly, but
it's almost like why, almost.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Like we're trying too hard here?
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Ridiculous?
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Why we didn't yet know we're trying too hard?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Is there is there a Raiders one on Investigation Discovery?
Is that what's gonna happen?
Speaker 8 (37:09):
Yeah, it's gonna It's gonna err on True TV. Speaking
of NFL shows, Hard Knocks has expanded to the NFL
off season. Today, they released the trailer for Hard Knocks
off season with the New York Giants. It features audio
from Daniel Jones and of GM Joe Shane speaking with
former Giants running back Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 6 (37:31):
I am five months from the surgery, so progressing that
I've gotten.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Hurt, but not like this, thank one. Can you give
me your word on that? Or are you're not gonna
give us a chance.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
My job is to do what's best for the franchise.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
That's go wow. The show I don't care about about
a team. I don't care about this is this is
Hard Knocks. What makes Hard Knocks great was the training camp.
There's way too much knocks going on right here. There's
way too much Hard Knocks happening with the NFL. Just
do this. Six weeks of training camp, that's all I wanta.
(38:02):
Way too much hard knocks. The parking lot attendance. Yeah, seriously,
this is Knocks time right here. I didn't watch the
end season ones. I heard they were all right, but
it's just I love the training camp point.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
Yeah, no, that was fun. I agree.
Speaker 4 (38:15):
I didn't think I was gonna watch the Hallmark movie,
but I'm gonna watch that Hallmark movie over this.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I might as well get out there, impress. That was
the press. Monsie and I will agree to disagree, but
we will reconvene tomorrow. At least we're on the same
page as this. Paul Skeins should be an All Stars
talk to you tomorrow here on Fox B
