(01:09):
Moments ago, Aaron Judge home run number sixty one on
the season, part of his one for four night. Right now,
So sixty one home runs for Judge. The Yankees lead
Toronto six three in the eighth inning, and now Mike Harmon,
the people's champion debate can begin because he will be

(01:30):
the people's home run champion. I you may not like it.
You may say the number still says Bonds and number
says guy that him, but the people are gonna disagree,
and the people's elbow is gonna come for you, and
he's gonna be the people's home run Champion. Well twenty
three years ago. Today it's only appropriate you bring up
the people's elbow as the rock lay it down, one
of the greatest people's elbows hold all time. But the

(01:53):
that's fine. The rest of fan bases, the rest of
the baseball loving world, they're allowed to be wrong. And
I can say the word just because I'm not Fonsie
and I'm not taking the l in this one. Everybody
can love what they saw from Aaron Jone and I
do do. I've celebrated the whole thing. There's a lot

(02:15):
of different caveats to it. And when we start comparing
eras and accomplishments or whatever else, and we can have
fun with that. Two were blue in the face in
this moment. I'm still shining the guy that brought his
glove and then it refused to sell out to try
to catch the ball. Okay, all right, let's let's go
half pass byway. You're fired, you know, you guys, you know,
first of all, for a second, hang on, hang on.

(02:41):
Oh my god, you guys are in terribly. That guy's
not sleeping for day. I've just had suvis. I know
what out of pocket costs are? You're selling that ball
for multiples and you did nothing instead of falls harmlessly
into the bullpen where one guy's gonna say, hey, judge
bat cool, Well what what is what? What? What's Hans

(03:03):
Solo's big line from Star Wars? What goods the reward
if you're not around to spend it? He falls out? Okay, okay,
he would have been fined. Might might have judge his
home run. He's falling like twenty feet. That's not you know,
that's that's not like a stud. He wouldn't have needed
to fall if he was more limb caught. Oh yeah, yeah,

(03:24):
you guys are both. Oh you know, if I was there,
I would have you guys, if I was trying to
kick that guy's ass, man, I wouldn't have taken that
from he says that to me. I would have kicked
his ass. I wouldn't have walked away like you did.
I have so kicked this. This home run that Judge hit,
hits off the hits off the wall and falls into
the bullpens. But he's getting rich on this. Although I

(03:47):
would if I'm if I'm in the bullpen, I would
hold on to that ball. Let's say, just because it
ends open doesn't mean I'm not making money on this.
But no fan is gonna get this ball. It's gonna
go back to Aaron Judge in the Yankees, and I
I already I can't believe people are mad at these
two fans. One guy who got a little close to
it with the glove. It was a little clothe. You
you get there and you're hanging out over something that's

(04:08):
twenty ft in the air. See how low you really
get for that ball? You would both would alligator arm
and go oh, I just didn't know. Oh, I pulled
the muscle in my back. It wasn't it wasn't there
for the guy. It wasn't there for it was it
wasn't there. It wasn't. I've seen like nine different so
he had a missage. He misjudged it. See what I

(04:30):
did there he had it and now they've had the ice,
so cam on him repeatedly where he looks like he
just lost his dog. Well, look, you're you're that you're
that close to a million dollars and you know you
get because you brought your glove to the game and
you failed to use it. You brought your tool and
you failed to use your tool. Problem to hang on?

(04:51):
The ball hits The ball hits just above the r
on sports book. Okay for the guy it's about I
don't know, maybe at least three feet away from They
got two feet away from the guy's glove where he
would have had to go up and over to try
to get that and fall in probably twenty some odd

(05:12):
feet to the ground and maybe he lands on his
head and you know who know that's I'm sorry it was.
It's it's frustrating. And if I'm that guy, that guy's
walking around going I was two feet away from a
million dollars. I could have I could have got, But
that's too tough a play because the railing is too high.
I can't believe you guys are saying that this guy
it's bad luck. It's really bad luck. And I'm sure,
he's gonna walk around and go story in my life,

(05:34):
I was two feet away from a million dollars. But
I don't see how he could have made it. I
could hear I would never have. That's why you're thinking that.
You've seen a lot of plays that are easy plays
that don't go into the glove, so you're used to it.
How many come on? There's no such thing as an
easy play in But we've were win a hundred games

(05:56):
this year. We're good. Okay, just stop stop with the Mets.
It's not about the Mets. This is this is a
play that look, I would love to sit here and say, oh,
this guy, he's bad. But to try to reach over
that he reached about as far as he could get
without risking really falling up, because he would have had
to have fallen over to get it because you're not
getting any further down. It's not like the guy's a

(06:18):
little bit more limber. This is this is like I
would have had to go jump up and over to
try to go down and get that ball. He wasn't
reaching it with his glove. I mean, I know he's
gonna he's gonna take it in the teeth, but I
I don't think he could. It was out of his glove.
Touched the gloves, touch the glove. I'm film. I'm looking

(06:40):
at it right now, and it's just all. It does
not go in his gloves. Where do you see it
hitting his glove. I'm on the New York I'm on
the New York Yankees Twitter page, and I'm seeing this
right now. I don't see it. No, I'm watching though.

(07:03):
I'm pretty sure I'm watching the one farm and there's
no way I'm wrong. I'm wanting it hits his glove, right,
I think it hits his glove. If not, it's right
at his glove level. So he should have caught the ball.
How does his friend not hold him by the ankles
and dangle if he if he if he needed more room,
but he didn't even need more rooms. The thing, the
friend just grabs him and says, up and over here,

(07:24):
going to get minimum. Hell yeah, he just throws him
over the side. You know he missjudges that terribly bad job.
I don't know. I I gotta see. Uh. I feel
bad for the guy. I mean, I'm not gonna sit
here and and he's never gonna at man. They you

(07:44):
know he looks like Frodo too. I mean, no, he
looks like Sam. He's yeah, but he looks like our guy. Uh,
Sean Aston. They can make a movie out of this
guy's life. Now for what happens after this point going forward? Uh,
I don't know. You know, well, you know what what
another big mistake of his was is that he's tried

(08:05):
to lean over There's two different railings the sizes, and
he leaned over the top railing like the higher one.
He could have leaned over the lower one, and maybe
he gets closed. I don't maybe, I don't know, man,
I don't know that. I don't know. It does I
don't know. It looks like it was that easy. That's tough.
That's tough, man. I don't know. I don't know, but
it is. It is at least a million dollar payday

(08:27):
because it is oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's home run
ball number sixty one, which is a big deal. Even
if he finishes with sixty three. Sixty one is the
big one because these next couple, because sixty one ties
him with Roger Marraw, sixty two gives him the record,
and then whatever he hits after that, so it's all
like the all the McGuire home runs, getting up to
where he's at, uh, where where he was? And and

(08:49):
this was gonna because so sixty one, sixty two and
the obviously the last one he hits is gonna be
worth all the most. I think there was a two
million dollar bounty on it. From two million dollars, How
did these losers sleep tonight? Uh? I don't know. You know,
the guy the other guy might have had a better

(09:10):
shot at it, the guy in the in the light
blue blue Jay's jersey, he might have. Well, no, he
didn't get close enough because you know there was one
guy that the guy in the Yankee hat that just
kind of got pushed out of it. He wasn't aggressive
enough even to get after that a little bit more.
Oh bad effort, and then the ice so of him
stroking the beard goingck frap. Yeah, I'm gonna lead all that.

(09:33):
They're gonna be showing up in my house for an interview,
and I'm gonna have to play nice and yeah, because
I'm seeing people saying here it is with blue checkmark
saying it did not hit his glove. It bounced off
the blue check marks for people to say it hit
his glove or not I do. I I'm not going
by just anybody. I need a blue checkmark to tell

(09:54):
me where this is going. I mean the guy in
the other blue Jay's fan with the sweatshirt on under
his jersey, who you know, demonstratively throws his hands over
his head. No uh he he bangs into him. There's
no question about it. So I'm surprised there wasn't a fight.
Maybe there will be between those two guys because that
he's got somebody to blame. He doesn't have somebody to

(10:14):
blame if he really wants to. It's like, hey, didn't
give me a cleat shot at it, but it's still
a catchable ball. Whether it hit his glove or not.
It was at a level where it could have been caught,
and he misjudged that. He misplayed it like he was
in right field and playing in little league, like a
Mets outfielder. I need like a very slow reaction, like

(10:36):
he was expecting the ball to keep traveling to him.
He judged it terribly. No, No, I need Okay, Wow,
you just really He's right. We're just just doing baseball analysis,
is what we would do to a guy in a game.
You're literally doing the same thing. Here the professional athlete.
Professional athlete guy wearing a bow bischette jersey to a

(10:57):
game with a glove. Guy brought his glove, which indicates
to me he thinks he knows how to catch a
baseball or he needs to help to catch the baseball.
Don't you think people that bring gloves to games they
feel like, Hey, I can't just catch it if it
comes to me, I need a glove glow. In this case,
he was sick and I got two million bucks if
I catch this damn ball. Because he got down to
the front row on a seat. How do you you know?

(11:18):
Could you have gotten in like a I don't know,
like a like like a like a like a pool skiffer.
Could you were gone inway? Could you have gotten it
into the stadium? Because that way if it's lower lower,
small small net with a long extendable handle, could you
have done that? He got here? Well, you know what,
I came up my fishing boat and I brought one
of my nets. You let guys bring gloves in. I

(11:40):
could bring my fishing boat. Well, you could have brought
one of those supersized gloves that you bought. You should
be able to do. Oh well, that's well, yeah, definitely
bringing a smaller glove. You gotta bring a bigger glove.
You gotta bring a bigger glove. That that's where first
Baseman's mit. I don't know either way. The video of
this poor guy, uh then playing with his phone and
just ache in his head. Man, yeah, well that the

(12:02):
heat heat doesn't realize exactly. He just doesn't realize yet
exactly what what what he's missed out on like it's
still oh man, it was so close, like and then
you getting people next to him going, hey, dude, I've
heard that. I've read that was a two million dollar
ball man that coulda go. You could have sold bad
thing for two million. He spins around, puts the hand
on the forehead, throws his glove, takes the hat off,

(12:24):
does the demonstrative Ah, you dirty, miserable son of so
and so, and uh yeah, it's yeah, no listen, I'll
give you guys this on it because I still need
to I still need a super slow mode to see
if I'm gonna send it to you. There's a new
angle that came out. The side angle. Okay, there's a
side angle, and don't send me the butt fumble. Don't

(12:46):
do that. Don't do it again. Don't do it it.
Don't r with the bud fumble. All right, don't do
that again. Okay, Ti shirt does that to me all
the time. Hey, he do see what's coming up on
the House of Dragon on Sunday. Check this out. Check
and it's the butt fumble. I don't do that. Said.
If you have something, sent it to me, So send
me that. Uh. I will say this because this, this

(13:06):
is the truthful thing to say. Uh. That guy will
never get over this. He will he will never get
over being this close, being this close to such a
huge paid guy drinking a beer with the mullet next
to him, just like man, that sucks. Yeah, he's like
Lawrence in in office space. Hey Lawrence, you want to

(13:28):
come over now? Don't watch your messing up my life too.
To be sure to catch live editions of The Jason
Smith Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern
seven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the I
Heart Radio Fox Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with
Mike Harmon. And we'll get back into Aaron Judge coming

(13:49):
up in a couple of minutes. I've got big stuff
from the NFL and Bill Belichick just being peak Belichick.
But I think everybody is reeling now at the news
that's uh just a couple of hours old. Uh, Coulio
dying at the age of fifty nine. Earlier today. He
was visiting with a friend and uh, he went into

(14:10):
go to go to the bathroom, and when he didn't
come out after a few minutes, the friend went in
to find him, uh, and Coolio had passed away. According
to TMZ, he died of a suspected heart attack. Official
cause yet to be determined. And there's one of his
two biggest hits right there with Gangsters Paradise, and it
wasn't any bigger than Coolio in in the mid nineties.

(14:31):
And you're talking about a guy who was a rap
legend that uh, you know, it still has had a
lot of influence over even over the last couple of decades. Um,
I mean, this song has like a billion plays on
on Spotify. I mean it's it's just I mean, Gangsters
Paradise and and Fantastic Voyage. It's just such a such

(14:52):
an incredible, an incredible cut through of hits that no
matter what kind of music you like, Yeah, you like
those songs and I'm shocked, you know with Coolio. Coolio
is going on the age of fifty nine. I can't
believe it breakthroughs uh in terms of the MTV rotation, right,
certainly Gangster's Paradise one that came all all over the place,

(15:13):
and we're now Yankovic uh doing a parody of it
doing Amish Paradise. Right. He claimed that uh, you know,
he didn't ask for permission, so that got a little
more run right, more in the news and more clips
about it. But certainly a goat. We saw a ton
of reality shows and a bunch of movies. Uh, and

(15:35):
really did the best capitalize off of those big hits
that he had. I mean, what about one, two, three,
something new? I mean, come on, that was a class off.
That's that was offt his third album that was that
was a big one. You know, years old. Man, I'll
tell you, uh, and you you want it because I
actually have a Coolio story. You have a great Coolio story.
This is a great cool This is a great Coolio story.

(15:56):
So this is back in the early two thousands when
I lived in Pam and I lived in Marina del Rey,
which is uh an area that that that's near the
beach in Los Angeles, and we lived in an apartment
of Marina del Rey and Rina Dell. You know, you
it's areas where you would see people because people are
going to the beach, so there'd be stars would but
would drive by at times, and you know up the
street where we from where we lived, like on the

(16:18):
real expensive houses like Suzanne Summers lived there and Dudley
Moore lived there and Wesley Snipes, you know, all in
the big houses. You know, we're in like a you know,
a two in one apartment. And a couple of times
I I I saw this van pull up, like when
I would go up to get coffee or go up
to get a drink at where where the restaurants are,
and it was this big van that had sticker love

(16:39):
it says Coolio. You know, new album dropping on September fifteenth,
and the pictures of Coolio on the van and like
this big van. I'm like, oh, that's pretty cool. This
is you know Coolio's people, have you know, his his
pr people, have you know, someone driving this van around
so people would see that, you know, Coolio has got
a new album coming out. It's pretty cool advertising. And
I saw it once I didn't think a lot of it,
and then I saw it end. And the second time

(17:01):
I saw it, Coolio got out of it. He was
driving the car, and I'm like, you like someone else
to do the promotion, do the damn thing yourself. He
gets out. I go, that's cool, because you can't. I can't.
I couldn't miss it because you know Coolio, especially the
great hair. Oh yeah, because his hair was up. Oh
my god, I let hairstyle was so awesome. And and

(17:22):
I saw I'm like, oh my god's Coolio. And Coolio
was getting out of the driver's seat, like he went
in to pick up food and got back and then
drove away, and I'm like, oh my god. I couldn't
believe that. And then two years later I was working
on this TV show called The Sports List that ran
on Fox what was the precursor to Fox Sports One
for a long time, it's I love the eighties, but
for sports, it's here's a half hour with stars talking

(17:42):
about here's the top ten wide receivers of all time,
the top ten super Bowls of all time. And it's
like a minute a half on a countdown show. You
know all the list shows, Yeah, yeah, all the list
shows that were so popular for the adds and the
and the early teens and so what the most fun
part of it was our booking agents had all these
celebrities coming in that would sit down with us for

(18:02):
like a half hour and in exchange, you know, we
would we were promoting whatever they had coming up. And
so Coolio comes in and I'm like, oh, cool I'll
interview Coolio. I said, I'll talk to my I'm familiar
with his career because I always said, Hey, who knows so?
Who knows about so and so? And the thing is,
I always knew about everybody because you know me, I'm
that I'm that nerd that knows everybody everything about everybody public.

(18:23):
And I'm like, oh, I know that person's career. I

I'll ask you all the questions we have about let

(18:45):
He was, yeah, yeah, great, great. I gotta say. I say,
you know, I gotta tell you a funny story that
that that I saw you a couple of years ago,
um in in Marina del rycau should come and said hi,
Like how cool was that? Then he says to me,
you should have come up and said hi to me
like that was I was like, oh my god, dude,

would then press a couple of bucks into his hand. First,

(19:05):
d Hey, here's my down payment. Can you give me?
The kids get in there and sell sell stell. I mean,
that's why you have street teams, and in this case
he decided to say, to hell with the middleman, I'm
my old street team. Well, let let me let let's
get to let's get into the story first. So I said,
you know, it's funny I used to Should come up
and said hi, said well I was. I was thinking

(19:26):
about it, but I said you were driving that You
were driving a van that had there was a big
promo for your next album coming out, and I saw
you get out of the car, and I thought that
was so cool that here you are getting out of
the car, you're driving with your own album coming out.
And he looked at me and all of a sudden,
he gets serious and he goes, you saw that, and
I said yeah, yeah, and he looked at me goes,
I'm never doing that again. And then I didn I

(19:52):
didn't know what to say. I'm like, okay, alright, so
whatever Coolio's record company, Hey, why don't you drive around
in this van? But you know, it's all got stuff
going on and you driving, and he said, I'm never
doing that again. I was like, alright, alright, okay, good
good talk, good talk. But but I mean there's a
million follow up questions, what do you mean good talk?
Good talk? And well, then we had to sit down

(20:13):
for the interview. I mean, he was coming into talk
basketball and for top tenlas. He wasn't coming into just
to hang out with me and say, hey, who's seen
me when I'm driving around my Julio van. Yeah. No.
There were two things that I remember, like because I
got to introduce my my kids love the music that
I listened to, and when pop culture folks like you,
the nerd that you have the random resources that you

(20:35):
wish had more valuable um information in those parts of
your brain. But when he showed up as a wax
figure on Gravity Falls, it's like, who's that? Because I
got a chuckle, It's like, alright, wax figures, and randomly
there's Coulio. He did his own voice in that. And
then they had one of those celebrity cookoffs when those
were starting to become a thing and Rachel Ray was

(20:56):
still a really really big deal and Guy Fiertti was
starting to do nine shows on the network. He was
one of the original stars on that list as well,
so kind of a big deal. So there he goes
cooking reality shows, uh, and children's cartoons. Those are my
most recent memories, as well as anytime Gangster's Paradise shows

(21:17):
up on any soundtrack or on your playlists, you crank
it up to eleven, you know, and I know that,
you know, fifty nine is just way too young. It's
it's it's it's so so young. But I was surprised.
I didn't think he was that old. Like I thought, oh,
he's gotta be might he's gotta be like early fifties
like that, that's where he's got to be and I
didn't think he was fifty nine. I'm like, wow, okay, yeah,

(21:37):
the nineties was a while ago. It ain't that far away.
When did that song come out? Not like right, that's
when his that's when his bets when his big hit
story like ninety four was a big hit. Jason, come on, fan, well,

a big moment about an hour or so ago. Aaron

Yankees win, we can now play you. There goes that
even left it us high. He uspa is gone number

in American League history. That would have been a great
radio call. Yeah, like that was call, Like Michael Kay

I thought we get yeah, I thought we get a
little bit more from him. You just finished watching Bohemian
Rhapsody again, didn't you know? That's yeah? Well yeah, it
was actually on cable right before we started. I had

(27:23):
a split screen of that and while the Yankees gave
some there you go, I ate the broccoli again. Fox

(28:29):
The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmen
live from the tirac dot com studio as well. It's
interesting you say that, Bill Belichick, because this is the
NFL headline. We didn't know we needed today, but we
absolutely did. Uh. Matt Jones's status for the Patriots is
up in the air. Of course. Bill Belichick forever has

(28:51):
never been very forthcoming. He's not very forthcoming in any
particular stances. He's never been very forthcoming on how injured
up player is, how long someone's going to be out.
But clearly Mac Jones his ankle injury is the talk
of New England. Is he going to play? Will Brian
Hoyer play? We don't know. Hey, Well, luckily Bill Belichick

(29:13):
has a press conference on Wednesday, so we'll ask him. Yeah,
here's what you got days getting better? See how goes
day by day? Does he have a high ankles brain
day by what do I look like a doctor? An
orthopedic surgeon? Like? I don't know? Talk to the medical
experts are you a doctor? What do I look like?

(29:35):
A blank in doctor? He's going straight out of reservoir dogs.
Are you a doctor? What do you admit you don't
know what you're talking about? He has given us absolute
gold with that, because now that what do I look like?
A doctor? An orthopedic surgeon? That and that tie shirt.
Let's let's pour one out for all the great Bill

(29:58):
Belichick crops we've had in the path, because now we're
gonna replace him with this one. What am I a doctor?
I mean that that's it. Now you could go to
him into talking about sharks. That's a good way to day.
Always just a shark or something that's good. But I
think the day by day, day by day. I think

(30:19):
the day by day and the doctor think. I think
that becomes the go to Bill Belichick drops that we have.
Look what I just did. I got that in your head.
Now you can't get day by day, right, you know,
because you know what I think back, I think back
to when she does that song and wet hot American
Summer and they bore like she does. This is a
great version of day by Day. But it's just a

(30:41):
poor off the stage. Oh it's one of those nights.
I gotta think that, you know, you someone can repurpose
and maybe tie shirt with with the talent that he has,
unless he's busy, you know, building grunts or whatever game
he's playing on his on his computer. Something that where

(31:02):
we can you can take that day by day and
you can put a snappy music bed behind it will
sound like the intro to a sitcom from the nineties,
Like doesn't day by day? So it wasn't it day
by day? So wasn't it a sitcoming? So day by day? Sitcom?
Day by day? There was? But it ran two two seasons. Wow,

(31:25):
Julia Louise dry Fust, Courtney Thorne Smith, Okay, Thora Birch
was in it. Okay, but it's just still pretty. It's
pretty good cast. Yeah, but nobody remembers that show. It's
not like it was Step by Step or you know,
Full House. Now you could like that sounds like, hey,
let's let's reboot this for the nineties with a with
a snapping music bed behind it. Just Belichick saying day
by day the entire time until you score. We take

(31:51):
it here day by day. Yeah, yeah, I mean you
put some snappy music behind it. That would work, That
would work as a sitcom open. I mean, we'll a
side it would it would ip telling you what would
work as a sitcom open, keep telling you if we
could get if we can get the funding to do it.
You and I have networks, we can program. You know

(32:12):
what I would really like you heard right here, right?
You heard this? You know someone asking about mac Jones
high ankle spraying day by day, what to look at
doctor orthopedic surgeon and he gets really testy, right. I
would love just once. I would just love for once
a long suffering, long time to England report, like like
Dan Shaughnessy or somebody to just stand up in there

(32:33):
after something like this happens where someone asked legitimate question,
because this is how it works in sports and in
the NFL. Is a guy hurt? This is a deal.
We you know, we need information, This is this is
how it works. I would just like just once for
some reporters stand up and go, you know what, blank
you bill, blank you blank you blank. You stop taking

(32:54):
it out on me because you're mad about whatever you're
mad about, and you don't want to answer a question
question and act like it's my fault for asking the question. Oh,
how's mac Joe's doing. What do I look like? A
doctor and orthopedic surgeon. You're the head coach. Don't make
it seem like I'm a jerk for it, doing my
job and asking a question to something you should be
able to answer me. Blank, you man? And then he

(33:15):
drops the mic and they walk out. I'd love to
see that just once, just once, I would say for
twenty years, Bill, blank, you for this, man, Stop blaming
me for stuff that's not my fault and making a
making a mockery out of me because you feel like
it just wants to make a mockery of anyone. Just
it just had the off hand comment and look you
would make it. Is is just really related to you

(33:38):
and your ongoing battle with Tom Brady for supremacy? Is
it really? Is that the latent cause of your anger,
your consternation and you're flipping responses to me each and
every time we go through this dance. Is that really
what's under all of this? Wait a minute, wait to
go back and say, I'm writing that down. So I've
ever talked to Belgian. I'm gonna say those exact words.
That was really good. That's extempt Rady is speaking at

(33:59):
its finest Day by Day, but it was. It was
a fun response. Even if he's not laughing and joking
around like Popovich going don't bet on this team for
the title, it's got the same effect. Laugh with it.
It's funny. Yeah, I'm not a doctor. I'm a coach,
not a dot not Northpedic surgeon either. Now he's neither
of those things. He's play or Hoyer will Day by

(34:25):
Day Twitter and out about a frisk and Mike has
swollen him back into sixty one for Judge Next, What
do I look like a doctor? St
