(00:51):
should be. This is the Rocky four part of the game,
when Duke stands up and says, this.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
One's supposed to be an exhibition and truly, Oh, it's
looked like ten and a half to go on the
third quarter.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
So the good news for the Timberwolves is there's a
lot of time left. The bad news for the Timberwolves
is there's a lot of time left. The Mavericks lead
this game seventy five to forty two. It was a
twenty nine point lead at halftime. They have since extended
it by two. Here early in the third quarter, TNT
is now showing Jimmy Jam and Snoop Dogg.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Hey, who's it the game?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Now?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
What can we still do?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Just give him a microphone because Kevin Harlan can't even
sell us trash.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
I actually just saw Jimmy Jam on Sunday and its
Purple Rain fortieth anniversary event they.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Had in downtown. Try to take us no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
It was fortieth anniversary of a Purple Rain and Jerome
was the host, right, So Jerome comes a bunch of
other people from the movie. Jimmy Jam was there to
talk about the music and everything, and they had a
screening of the movie and it was we're there. It's
like Rocky Horror Picture Show. Everybody is yelling lines like
like when Prince sss Apple you have to cleanse yourself
in Lake Minnetonka ice Up I.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Said, don't do don't.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Do it, because you know she jumps in and he
and everybody starts throwing toast. It's not like Minnetonka. So
it was one of the things. Jimmy Jam was there after,
answering questions like here's our panel. It's Jerome and a
couple other people from the movie and Jimmy Jam are like, wow, Okay.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
She's running in parallel with that. Jimmy Jam.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Jimmy Jam was also what they sometimes called Jimmy Garvin
when he was a member of the Fabulous Freebirds, So
you can run in parallel depending out which guy you
ran into, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
And he talked a lot about Minnesota and the Minnesota
music scene and in the early eighties and everything else.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
And I was like, okay, j now here he is.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
He's representing for Prince right, because Prince would be at
this game, because Prince came to all the game He
came to all the games.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
They play his music. They played when Doves Cry.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Which kind of bums me out that, you know, when
Doves Cry is the song they played before the games
because it's like the worst print song. But you know,
they played Let's Go Crazy right before the fourth quarter.
They might need a little bit more than that going
to the fourth quarter tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Maybe, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
I mean, it's kind of like at Wisconsin they have
tradition right around and then yeah, yeah, they're usually still
in the game.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, let's go.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Grant's gonna get it, and you're not gonna go in
any of the dirges, no slower songs, but yeah, we're
anything else in.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
We're gutther here today for the final game of the
NBA Seeds.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I think at this point the only reason this series
got expend extended was out of spite because Charles Barkley
started talking about his four month vacation. So the t
Wolves said, screw you. You're gonna have to change your flight.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
You want to complain about stuff, that's okay, you want
to complain about the end of the NBA on TNT,
But no, we're gonna.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Make you work an extra couple Don't you love working
with these guys. What's going on it?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
We tried to take that a couple more days. Jason, Yeah,
what he got, Frostburg. If the t Wolves keep this up,
they're gonna match the Syracuse Nationals. Look at a score
in nineteen forty nine, the lowest playoff game.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
What's what's that number? I think it's fifty six? Wow?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Okay, well he just hit a free throw, so now
it's only a thirty two point lead for for dev
It's come hell, you.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Gotta get a to o. Gotta get a to o
kind of stop the run, Jason Kid. Yeah, thirty seven percent,
thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
In a row. So Luca's got twenty nine, Kyrie's got nineteen.
They're shooting fifty eight percent from the floor. But there's
one big reason why the timber Wolves are losing tonight.
There's only one reason. One reason, only one reason why
the t Wolves.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Somehow only one.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Look, this is we can play like the old Game
Show where I hold up the sign I think I
know what it is. Doesn't rhyme with bulls?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
No, you can No, No, it doesn't. It doesn't. Wait,
suck doesn't rhyme with bulls.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Okay, we could. We could try that up. You could
blame Anthony Edwards. Yeah, hey, he is not having to No,
he's not being good. You could blame Rudy Gobert. You
could blame Rob Parker. You could blame Rob Parker if
you want. Oh, come on, I've been a lot of
money on news Gape. Now you can blame Karl Anthony Towns,
you can blame nos Reed just one for a lot
(04:52):
or yeah, yeah, but there's one reason why the Tea
Wolves are losing, Like, can you boil it down one
single word? Yes, I could. I could tell you exactly.
You want to know why I hit me? You wanna
know why, let's go. You're gonna say, hey, we know
our takes get stolen all the time, right, so this
is gonna be stolen because there's one reason why the
Day's losing this game. They stink. They stink tonight, they
(05:13):
stink out loud. This is embarrassing for a team that's
done so much talking about, Hey, we're gonna bring this back.
We'll see you in game six. And I got money,
I got jerseys from Michael Parsons, I got stuff everywhere.
I'll see you because it worked in the last series.
I'll see you back here.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
In game six. Oh yeah. And they showed up with
absolutely no energy.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
They showed up with no the stick tuitiveness in this game,
and Dallas was on them from the beginning and they
gradually pulled away and.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I'm like, boy, they did.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
They did a lot of talking and and Anthony Edwards
is sitting here rolling along at minus thirty one for
the game like this is embarrassing. Like if you if
you go back, if it's three to one, you go
back and lose. Okay, you go back and lose. You're
not ready, you're a young team. What we'll take that angle.
But you like to talk and yep and oh hey,
people like when I, you know, went at it with
the uh the the equipment manager for the for the
(06:04):
Nuggets last series.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
So I'm doing the same thing. I'll see you, forget
see you, I'll see you, I'll see you. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, no.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
They absolutely stinked that this is for a team to
do that much talking and that much Yeah, I'm happy.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I'm happy. I'm happy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do it.
For them to do that and then show up like.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
This, this is this is so bad at home, this
is so embarrassing.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Elimination game more snoop dog And if you read his
lips heed, uh, well we can't we can't do that
translation here, Oh okay, get ready for that next uh
Luca just hit a shot. And there's been reports he's
been dawn at someone all night long who held up
a handkerchief to indicate, hey, do you need this for
(06:47):
your crying to the officials, and then he put up
twenty in the first quarter and kind of just kept
staring at the whole.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Time and jawn with him.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
And then he hit that shot, got bumped in the
and one opportunity, and then immediately, you know, kept jawing away.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Uh. Yeah, it's it's an embarrassing showing. Overall.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You got ten of eighteen from three point range, the
Mavericks shooting nearly sixty percent as a team. No huge
free throw disparity, no huge turnover or rebounding disparity, just
lights out shooting.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
And on the other end, they're not moving the ball.
They hit a couple of threes here now back to back,
but you're down thirty points. I mean, you're you're gonna
start getting openly. Yeah, I dare you hit the shot?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
It's like, look, you're playing like you're playing in the
in the street.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeah. I'm not not gonna guard you take it. I'm
just gonna let the rebound. I got this.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
You can let me take this some time, all right,
And you sit there for like a couple of seconds,
all right, sit there, sit there, sit there, and then
shoot it. And of course it's a brick, so you know,
it's you're not gonna that's take it. Take you want
to take it, take it, take it, take it, take
that shot. Yeah, this is just an absolute beat down
from the beginning. And you know, look, it makes you
look back and go, what the hell happened to the
(08:02):
Mavericks and game but like what the hell happened to them?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Like what they had? Not Like they showed up.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
With much more impetus to end this series today than
they did in Game four when they could have ended
and they would have had three extra days and Luka
Doncic would have had three extra days of rest waiting
for the Celtics, waiting for the series to begin on
the fourth of July, and it would have been so
much better. But instead, now you're gonna have most likely
you're gonna have a week or whatever it's gonna be.
But it's like, how does a team show up at
(08:28):
home and be that have that lack of sense of
killer instinct when you're up three zip and yet here
coming back for game five, it's hey, we are all
business from the jump, and it's Kyrie and it's Luca
and it's everything you expected in game four.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah, I just go back to that Game four.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
I mean, Karl Anthony Towns hadn't shot for anything, right,
We were talking about how historically terrible he was, and
then he went and had a huge night.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Right.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
All of a sudden, the open shots were falling. Edwards
hit a couple of big shots that he'd been missing
in other games the Dallas and we talked with Mark
Stein about it, talking about the Dallas offense and how
stagnant it got. I brought up the absence of Derek Lively.
You know, as a defender. It might not matter a
lot in the other box score categories, but you know,
(09:15):
he clutters things up, and he's back tonight. And then
he got clocked and drew a flagrant one and hopefully
he's okay, because you know, you talk about neck and
upper back injuries or whatever. You get a little bit
nervous for guys when they hit the deck that hard.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
But it's all all of.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Those things conspired for the Timberwolves to force a game five.
And then Luca and Kyrie, you know, as the best
back duo in the history of basketball, just.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Came out and showed you who they were. Jason, Wait,
look well look they Mane. You want to be honest
about people, missing here. Let let's be honest about this game,
because look, the Timberwolves, there's some guys there missing that
would make huge differences. Okay, yes, Sam Cassell, Trenton Hassled,
Fred Hoiberg. They're missing Mark Madson, Google, Yeah, yeh're missing
(10:06):
Goose pretty well, Wally Serbiak. They're missing a lot of guys.
It would be difference making all year. Got Wally Siry, Wally,
do something funny.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
You are playing the Rick Casino game.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
No, I just went back to the two thousand and
four Minnesota Timberwolves, the team that was this is the
greatest team in the state of Minnesota has ever had.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I'll go back to the Fort timber That's what it was.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Kevin Love ain't walking through that door.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Dude, Jordan Love ain't walking through that door. It's Nicky
rub walking through that door. Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
So, this is where we're at right now, a little
bit under six minutes left to go in the third quarter,
and the Tea Wolves have cut it to twenty seven.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah, I mean Edwards is suddenly caught twenty side right.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
He's out four of what four of six from three
point ranges up to twenty one points.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So he's only minus twenty seven. Now twenty two minus
twenty two. Well, that's good, that's good. Again, a twenty
seven point lead for the Mavericks with five and a
half to go in the third quarter. I have a
feeling that about an hour from now, we're gonna be
looking out. I'm just saying this is the hot take.
We're gonna be previewing the NBA Finals like a siding
(11:08):
to the fact that, well, we're not gonna have to
parse out what did a referee not do?
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Hmm, yeah, that's true. No, that's good.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Well maybe you never know what can he said after
the game, Chris Finch could say, Hey, the referee screwed us.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
You saw the pregame. I said to you guys this pregame,
he screwed us. The what do you got, Chris Christian
leader ain't walking through that door.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Oh no, sure there's that. You're right, you're right about that.
But he talked about illegal.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Screens and how you got to battle through what you know,
the Luca illegal screens and all of that stuff, and
he said it with a straight face. Couple of members
of the media tried to laugh, and he just kept
going with his point. He's like Oh that's gotta be
thirty grand.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Right, I don't know. I mean if Adam Silver is
not paying attention, no, I know, we don't have anymore coming.
He's worried about Lamar right now.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
He's already on to how big a poster they need
to put it outside the draft for him.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Look, these guys are gonna be out of playoffs at
about seventy five minutes, so we don't need to worry
about finding anybody. Well, no, today we have to say
the entire offseason. It's not like anything new is happening
for Luca. It's not like, oh hey loo Hordes, look
what's going on now? All these illegal Caitlin Clark screens
that are being said, this is amazing. Oh it's not happening.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, there's plenty of time to talk about another seven
turnover performance there happening. But yeah, for the Timberwolves, show
a little bit of heart, right, it'll look respectable ish
in the box score. But we all watched what we watched,
and it was a disaster, and you started looking for
the Impractical Jokers or the bet cast to see what
(12:37):
the live line was.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Absolutely, you're looking right now. If I gave you the
t wolves and thirty. You're thinking about it, then game
betting is thirty right now, I'm thinking about twenty seven.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I'm thinking about it. Well, let's see what we got
thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I'm thinking exit out about a Fresco exit swollen down
The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmen

dot Com plus twenty one and a half. Right, well,
twenty one and a half. Oh, I might jump on
jump on that.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
That's a little bit low lower the thought. It was
a total of twenty two and a half. What do
you think if only you could jump?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, well I could. I could. I could use a
springboard if so.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
We talked three sheets of loose leaf paper, Oh, I
get over three sheets five?
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Yeah, so you're getting there? Are we talking the a
little bit? You know? Three for a dollar notebook size?
Can you clear a big mac? Oh? I could clear it.
But I could grab the Big Mac on the way
like I would grab it on the go.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
I'm not only that the measuring sticking over at Big
Mac on the way.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Yeah, but that was also frost wearing Frostburg's sly way
of getting in.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
You know, it was Hamburger Day and you didn't buy
his hamburgers yet?
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Sure, okay, soon's the McDonalds. I'll buy McDonald's. I'm not
a Hamburger. You just said hamburger and you've met you McDonald's.
I didn't you just did you know?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
You said big Mac. Oh, that's what you were thinking.
That's I didn't say it. He was just trying to
get you. You just think I said, I've been projecting
that onto you. Uh. Craig Kinnear and Anchorman two.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
So more on the Mavericks blowout over the Tea Wolves
coming up, as well as, Hey, something we told you
last night was gonna happen today in the world of
sports for a big story absolutely happened. Plus before this
game ends, we have to get into what happened today
with Darren Waller.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
We absolutely have to get into that, do we, boy? Ah,
we do?
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Because you know what dream what is. I've been humming
that song all day today, ridiculously, I've been humming that,
so I don't know why I've been humming that. What's
funny because I was singing Dunk and Ice all day.

his team over the top embarrassing. Yeah, I know, I know.
Are you there for him? I'll down, I'll.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Do it for him. What are you talking about? You
can't prove that I said that. That was the whole
first segment.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
I know it was. But you still can't prove.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
That I said I have a rolling topic of Adobe
audition that says otherwise.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I don't know what that means, but that's a lie.
It's not an audition. We're we're hired. You can't build.
You can't build stuff with bricks and mutton here, come on, man, you.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Know what you're talking Adobe.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Like it's back.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
You're going to see something from like the sixteen hundreds
and oh yeah, look at this hut that's built with Adobe.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
They actually put someone in here the other day, the
smokehouse whose name is Adobe.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
She's from Nigeria, okay, and it means like first daughter.
So what can we forget about the hamburgers? Can we
just get some kudoba? Think cute dobo? Are they still
in business? That's a good question.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
They could have gone, like if they also went the
way of quiz Nos that wed what what's the next
chain that has a queue in its name?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I'll tell you what though. Quiznos at least had those
cool ads.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah, crazy lunatic quizzos up.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, I'll go on Quizzy, let's go,
let's go. I like I like they had the Quiznos
that would have the really slow toaster, so they put
your your sandwich through and you just watch it go
anticipation as the come on faster.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Give me my flat bread man. At least the hockey
game is good. Yeah, listen, hockey game is close. Games close.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
One, it's close, late third, come on now, doesn't get
closer than one? One no, not really now before we
get to Darren Waller, because we have to get to
Darren Waller, do we Yeah, dude, come on, the song
is so good. This song is so good, and I
have a great point.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Come on, man, I just like the we're casting for
someone who kind of looks like this woman.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Yeah, do you look like Kelsey Plumb? How would you
like to be in the video?
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Do I get? No? Yeah? What do I do?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
You just got to stand there and you look mad
at Darren Waller. So the Mets win today and I
got to get Francisco Lindork credit. He calls the clubhouse
meeting after Jorge Lopez, reliever.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Said Sammy Zain came in and closed it out. WWE
superstar E.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Says, you know, Hory Lopez on the worst team in baseball?
Where's blanket team in MLB? He gets dfaed by the Mets,
who have a week to outright release him, cut him.
He's not going to play for them again. Lindor calls
a meeting home run and a big go ahead double tonight.
So okay, the Mets win.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Mom Averages said he eventually had to hit home run.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Though, right, yeah, well yeah, eventually, Well he's still hitting
two fifteen, so there's you know, but you got a
w But what did we tell you was going.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
To happen last night?
Speaker 1 (18:39):
The whole discrepancy that there was in the beginning with
Jorge Lopez who said in an interview, I play on
the worst team in blanken MLB, and I saw a
lot of lazy reports on this story today about oh look,
he didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
He meant to say teammate bubh blah blah.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
And we told you last night, I said, I guarantee
you he's going to say today he's not going to
understand the blank storm that he is incited and how
much he has hurt his career. He's going to come
out and say I was misquoted, you know, because obviously
there you know, there is a language, a barrier that
could be there. But that's why Steve Gelbs, the Mets reporter, said, Hey,
just to clarify, you said you played on the worst
(19:19):
team in Major League Baseball. Yeah, probably okay, And then
a third time it was confirmed by Anthony Dicomo, who's
a beat reporter for the Mets. Hey, just to let
you know, I triple confirmed this, and what Lopez meant
to say was I'm the worst teammate on the worst
team in Major League Baseball. So that was triple confirmed.
But I knew he's going to come out today and
say he was misquoted.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
And what did he do.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
He came out today and said, Hey, I said I
was the worst teammate. Thanks media for making this worse. Okay,
now let me just say this. First of all, there
was nothing even close to the word teammate.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
It's not we talked about it.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
I was your teammate, but it wasn't, you know, drawn
out syllable, a swallowed mate.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Yeah, but I don't hear that kind of thing, bye bye,
and hear it. Now, maybe he didn't. Maybe he meant
to say something.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
That's why he was asked again about it, and again
three times this was confirmed. But still he wants to say,
oh thanks media, Hang on time out for a second.
If you want to sit here and say, oh, hey,
I didn't get I didn't know what was being asked
to me. You were the guy who walked into that
interview and said, I do not regret throwing my glove
in the stands and embarrassing the Mets. I do not
(20:25):
regret that and then you want to go out and
throw in profanity when you talked about being the worst teammate,
worst team in MLB.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
So I don't think there was any Hey.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
You got ambushed on your way out of the out
of the shower and anybody stuck a microphone in your face. No,
you went up there with that agenda of I'm good.
First thing I'm gonna say is I do not regret
my actions. He didn't walk back away from that, so
he knew what he was saying when he's talking to
the media all of this now, but I knew last
night he doesn't understand the blank storm he has instigated.
And now he knows that who knows where his career
(20:53):
is going to be, the Mets are going to let
him go. He was good for the first part of
the ear ITTHM was off the last couple of times.
Maybe somebody signs up, maybe somebody doesn't. He's got to
do that image repair. So he said, Oh, I'm gonna
say I was misquoted. Dude, you went in there talking
to the media with an agenda to say something. What
you said was confirmed too different, Okade, you said it
and then before was put out there it was confirmed,
(21:15):
and then a Mets beed reporter confirmed it after that.
So stop with this whole Oh hey, thanks media, my fault.
WHOA Okay, Well, first of all, if you're that mad,
you aren't you threatening something.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
We're trying some kind of action of this.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
No, you were asked three times, three times, and you
could have walked away and said no, I didn't mean
to say. If you didn't mean to say it, you
would have put that out last night. Right, You're not
waking up this morning and going, hey, I got to
say something. You know, this is a big deal. You
know last night you're getting dfaid. So you put that
statement out last night, You put something out on social
media or through your agent saying hey I never said this,
and now suddenly today it's oh yeah, no, thanks media
(21:48):
for making it worse. No, no, no, not buying it.
Not buying You said it, own it, and now move on.
You gotta do that. I've always said, well, you say something,
say what you want to say. I love that you're
telling the truth, because yeah, the Mets are the Mets
do stink and they are really really bad. I get
all that. I watched the games. I get all that,
but you got to own what you say and move
on from there. Now he wants to back away, going,
oh I didn't really no, no, no, you knew and
(22:09):
you walked in there with an agenda. That's why he's
got to own what he said and move on.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, it's one of those things because we immediately in
parsing out the words and the verbage. And look, obviously,
you being a Mets fan, this one hits you a
little differently, right, given the way the team is playing,
so some of that comes in. But I think we're
fair to it, right, grabbing all of the sound, grabbing
all the subsequent efforts to get points of clarification, the
(22:37):
ample opportunity to walk back the statement.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Di Como's comment.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
You know, he goes, hey, there was a lot of confusion.
This goes back twenty four hours almost. You know, there
was a lot of confusion over team teammate, and then
it was worst teammate on the worst team, and we're like, well,
what's going on right behind the scenes. The team obviously
is struggling, So you've got internal strife, whether it's managed you,
you got players not getting along, whatever's causing the dysfunction.
(23:04):
You're always trying to get inside, uh and maybe get
a little bit of a glimpse into that cord or
to see what's up. And then for Lopez, we find
out more about what's going on in this personal life
beyond his struggles on the mound. He's got, you know,
a sick child that that he's tending to and and.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
We put that in as part of it.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
It's like, you just don't know what anybody's going through, right,
And that's one of the the over overriding things, and
you know, just being kind and recognizing people are all
having their own moments. But in this case, he had
he had the opportunity to clarify, right, you have people
on staff that can help you in those interview situations.
(23:45):
Nobody was there with him. Why is that right? So
you know it's a cacophony, uh, and you know, just
an analgam of errors that come together. And he says
the unfortunate bart Now when he opens by saying, I
don't regret throwing my glove. You're not you're not putting
your giving yourself a lot of room for doubt, right,
(24:07):
you know, the benefit of the doubt is not going
to be there for you. When oh yeah, no, I
meant to throw it and I don't regret it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
It's like, Okay, that's the easiest thing to walk back from.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Hey, it was a moment of frustrations. We've been going bad.
I've had some tough outings, et cetera. But he doubled
down on that and then offered many opportunities to pull
it back. And again, good thoughts to him, you know,
and the people in his life and his son and
all of that. But for this circumstance, you know, the
two run in running parallel, right that you still have
(24:42):
the professional responsibility and for a team, you know, I
saw so many calls like, well, that was too rash.
I'm like, really, I don't.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I don't think it's too rash. I think at some
point as at it.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Just from his performance. You were already at a Pens performance.
You're talking about that guy, the guy gave up six
runs that got thrown out by the third base up.
You want to talk about his performance, but you were
already had a hot kid me. Maybe you were looking
at options for him as it was right before the
glove goes flying over the netting.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
And now here we are.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Look, he walked in with an agenda. He wanted to
say what he said, and now, unfortunately, this is what
happens when athletes see, oh this has gotten out of
control for me. I gotta how do I find a
way to walk I almost feel like he got on
Twitter and got on social media and said, boy, how
can I walk this back? And maybe him or you know,
his age who ever, said, Hey, there's some people on
(25:36):
social media saying, maybe you didn't mean to say that,
you meant to say teammate instead. Meanwhile, you don't hear
the word teammate from You don't hear the word teammate.
You hear something and then, but again confirmed by Steve Gelbs,
you say worst team in Major League Baseball. So I
almost felt like he got on social media say, what's
an excuse that that could fly? Oh there's people here
thinking you may said teammate. Oh all right, I'll go
with that. Like, really, I really think that's what happened.
(25:57):
How can I get out? Who's got my back on
social media? What can I say?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Like?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
What can I say?
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Hey, I was just trying to bring fire to the team.
I was trying to all these things. Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely,
that's good. Happen no, I just gotta own it. You
said it, and you gotta own it. It sucks sometimes
it sucks, but you gotta own it because that's what
you meant to.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
That was the image of what you meant to get
out there.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
But as we talked about with the first blush, like
you're trying to give him the benefit of the doubt,
right going through the language and wondering if the emotions
did he swallow the word mate like, I think that's
where perhaps he's tried to find the gray area and
people that you want to just dismiss it categorically forgetting
the other part of it right, owning up to oh yeah,
(26:38):
I wanted to throw my glove and I don't take
it back. Trying to find some grace. Emmitt the aka
the Blind Seahawks fan writes in on Twitter at how
about a Fresca and swollen dome? There's a quiz Nos
thirty minutes away from me. Add for the first time
a couple of months ago.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That was pretty good.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Yeah, so there you go, the first time they've been
around for like twenty years. No have they got out
and got themselves a business. So you know, we all
come to things in our own time. Tell me I
still remember the first time I had Quizzo's was in
Houston in nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Houston, this is great. Houston, Yeah, Houston, Houston. H o
U st Oh did you follow this ound of the
beating trash can?
Speaker 5 (27:16):
No?
Speaker 2 (27:17):
It was one of those things where I was there
covering the l No. No, I was there.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
I was there, trash fandom. Honey, sandwich is here because
I'm hungry. I just got off the plane, and boy.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Omer, are you eating that sandwich?
Speaker 1 (27:29):
It's really humid here in Houston and I gotta change
shirts already. My god, it's so human. All I did
was walk out of the airport.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
It's not the heat. No, what you eaten? Trash can sandwich?
What do you joint me with? That up as a
pole question?
Speaker 3 (27:46):
So he has ever eaten a sandwich out of the
trash can of a track like Castanza?
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Ate that he?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Claire Jorhei Lopez said, no, before you did it, stops top. No,
I'm trying to think, like in my life have I
ever thrown something out? I've ever thrown something out like
for a quick not not like a not in like
a public trash can, but like in my house. Have
I thrown something? Oh wait, there's something in there I
want and pulled it right back out. I'm sure I
thought about that five second rule. I've done that. Oh,
(28:12):
I've waited in the you know what I found out?
Actually it is it.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
I read this. I don't know how true this is. No,
it's so much cleaner.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
No, I read this is actually the five second rule
is actually a thirty second rule. I've read many many
scientists said that it takes thirty seconds of you dropping
something on the floor for microbes whatever it is, to
get on there and find your the food, whatever it
is and start doing bad things. So if you can
get up in thirty seven, I'm like, you can't get
it up in thirty seconds, that's just it.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
I turned the lights off and wait like two minutes.
You'll find out if you have vermin.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
I really want.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
I wanted to go full Michael Scott there, but I
decided not to. You can't go fool anything. But no,
I mean once it gets outside of once you get
close past ten seconds, it's like, oh, oh, I don't know, yeah, done, done, done,
done done. Third, But thirty seconds I found third. Now again,
I don't know how right that is. And I don't
recommend picking up food off a floor and eating it,
but I just want to say something I read said
(29:09):
it was a thirty second. Yeah, you take bigger risks
every day. Sure, I'll walk the street like the risk
we're taking right now? What do you mean walking the street?
What are you talking about?
Speaker 4 (29:17):
Like?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Walk?
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Take a walk down the street, like I'm gonna start
trying to beat people out of money with three card moneys.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
He follow the queen, follow the queen. Say you followed
the street? I said, you're walking down the street. Time square. Hey,
what do we got? We got whoa whoa too soon?
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Yeah, I can't believe Tyree Hill is happy seeing some
of the Tyreek Hill and Brandon Ayuk the two most
unhappy wide receivers of the Brandon Ayuk.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
I'm waving to get from an island the next couple
of months. I'm coming to work on that contract.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
These guys are getting more than I feel like, Tom Brady,
you're gonna pay that mother blanker.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Yeah, that guy over me. Come on, man, that guy's
getting money. Or you could be Luca and say that
and then run away. That is you know, we have
to get to Luca's trash talk.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
We will get to that again one eighty two, with
about eight minutes left to go. Again, we're waiting to
crown the Mavericks Western Conference champions. But I got enough
time to make a crown at this time. Way you might,
you might make that. We'll make that crown like in
Midsummer and make the big, the big dress out of
all the flowers too. Are you gonna wear a bear
suit you want to crown. I'm gonna gonna stick Cheety's
(30:17):
foot out of the water. Why plant his foot in
the ground? I mean, come on, why, let's just that's
just Bill Walton breaking down midsummer. Why are you planting
someone's foot tooth around there's nothing going.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
To grow out? A said, I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Why do you cut a man's entire torso open and
he's still pretty still breathing, and you all you want
to do is just.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
Bring in somebody else.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
You want to bring in Florence Pew, who is just
the black Widow's sister. You're bringing her into your community
in Sweden?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
What is that? That's that's it? Jolena yo uh coming
up next.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Yes, we really have to get into Darren and what
the Giants tight end did today. We really it's a
must list himself to day. It's next right here, Jason.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific, Fox.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with My best friend
Mike Harmon. Looks like the Panthers are going to take
Game five Eastern Conference Finals. They just scored an empty
net goal. Panthers lead the Rangers three to one under
two minutes left to go. Meanwhile, a twenty one point
lead for the Mavericks with just about four minutes left
to go in the fourth quarter. Here again, we are
waiting to anoint the Mavericks Western Conference champions. Yes, So
(31:37):
while waiting for that, we have to get to Darren Waller. Now,
this has been a topic that has come up over
the past couple of weeks. People just really just found out, Hey,
he and Kelsey Plumber married. Wow, I didn't know that.
Has he retired yet?
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Yes? That was yes?
Speaker 3 (31:51):
That was The other possibility is Darren Wallers were the
two stories they finalized the divorce.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Can I shoot my shot? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:58):
With Kelsey plom Sure and leather vests and whatever else
she's got going on, and left arm is a cow
and she's got a cigar line and all this other
shit going on. Sure, so you got that or did
he finally announce he was retiring so if you had
him in a dynasty league you could safely cut him.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Now we know that they're getting divorced. They've been married
for about a year. Yeah, it's tough. They're getting divorced.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
And uh, while Kelsey plumb is is is rare to
go having a having a terrific start here to the
w NBA season or outfit she's wearing before the games
are gaining a lot of attention. Again, this is the
w NBA's time to grab the spotlight. Now that Stone
called Steve Austin vest.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
That was pretty don't you want to put his music
over the top with the broken glass.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
I don't understand how his vest fit her like that. Well,
they make difference at the angle, I think it was.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
It's camera angles.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
You sometimes when you shoot at force perspective, it looks
like it's left anyway. So Darren Waller maybe because he
was upset people taking Kelsey plumb sikes and social media.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
That's what it was.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
It was, Oh my goodness, how did Darren Waller FuMB
this woman away? He decided to say, you know what,
I'm going to record a song and I'm going to
tell you about my perspective of this relationship with a
song and a music video.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Now.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Robert Latall of Black Sports Online dropped this earlier. Today
is where a lot of people saw it.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Darren Waller. It's a music video, it's a.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Song, and it's told from the perspective of if Darren
Waller was Kelsey Plumb and things that she would say
to him. But it's him singing. Let's hear a little
bit of Darren Waller. I'm sorry America life.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
It's hard to love in life. See the change. Act strange.
It's hard.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
It's hard, man, Why I've never known.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Take it time, Just take a time out.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I'm walking around all day going up.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
I was just thinking the idea that you just stole
that all from Elvis. Yeah, well, I wonder if how
much you loansome tonight, how much music is really seemed
to change?
Speaker 2 (34:26):
You acted strange and why I.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Think you sort of you know, you take music from
different errors and do it. But honey, you lied when
you said you loved me.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
I've been I've been walking around dagging time. It's really
stuck in your head. And I watched this moment said
to you guys, I was like, that was the last
I thought of it. I watched this video like three
dagging time here.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
You know, here's the thing is you see something likes
to go wow, this is where it's twenty twenty four
and here's an athlete who puts out a divorce track
with a video. And before I sit here and say
how ridiculous that, I said to myself, Man, if I
could have done this when I was in my early twenties,
I'd have been a legend, like breakup tracks with video.
I would have told the truth about relationships. I'd have
(35:09):
been more like Eminem. You would have been like Doug
Heffernan and singing the Marghie song. And then and then
what about what you told me you weren't gonna be
at Sutter's Mill? And I went there and I checked,
and you were there, but you never knew I was
there because I left. But you said you were home
and you weren't home, and I was there and I
saw you like I would be. I'd be a legend man.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I'd sounded a lot like the track you had a
cut for Lebron not showing up at the pizza place
mic House, and.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Then you said you were going to show up in
Culver City, and then you kept saying you put it
out on Twitter and everybody's there, and you got all
these vans here.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Lebron, Why you so mad?
Speaker 1 (35:40):
I do want you as a friend, but you got
to show up in pizza places when you say you're
showing up. If I could have done dis tracks or
break up tracks, like if that was a thing in
the early nineties, dude, I'd have been a legend man.
People said, but hey, dude, can you write me a
disc track or a breakup track for my girlfriend? I said, oh,
one hundred percent I could. But the time is not
not done. All those people left holes in your soul.
(36:02):
Now's your time to fill those. So you start writing
those songs, you get yourself together, you get your auto tune,
and then you make a video. It's with girls that
look like the girls that strode you over. Well, dude,
especially with auto tune, well, the music video would just
be you handed out mets outs to all of them,
taking time yeah, Hory Lopez. Yeah, taking time a little
(36:23):
over size two three out of time now that they're
unclearing tom Tommy fam saying the Mets are bad, taking time,
but going back in his time right, It's not so
much that his head was bigger than everybody else's.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
It was the fact that, you know, you're also talking
eighties and nineties New York, New Jersey hair.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah, dude, I mean especially so, I mean, you're gonna
need a bigger hat to go.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
But then if you're.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Worried about my singing, but you heard the auto tune
on amazing, Like, why.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I'm still mad I didn't buy Auto two?
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Who was at the t paint and like microphone that
they had with the auto tune and stuff?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Really mad? I didn't buy a bunch of them.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
One of your lines, Jason would be like I missed
the pole or bear.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Taking time to watch him Mets lose. Taking time to
watch him lose. He's been doing this for the last
taking break. I wish I was around, man.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I read so many things. Oh yeah, life was better
in the old days. Nominate if we could have if
I could have had that that at my dispose, But
it's there now. Yeah, but I'm Yeah, but I'm married now,
I've been married for a long time. You can't get
your revenge.

when Duke stands up and says, this.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
One's supposed to be an exhibition and truly, Oh, it's
looked like ten and a half to go on the
third quarter.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
So the good news for the Timberwolves is there's a
lot of time left. The bad news for the Timberwolves
is there's a lot of time left. The Mavericks lead
this game seventy five to forty two. It was a
twenty nine point lead at halftime. They have since extended
it by two. Here early in the third quarter, TNT
is now showing Jimmy Jam and Snoop Dogg.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Hey, who's it the game?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Now?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
What can we still do?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Just give him a microphone because Kevin Harlan can't even
sell us trash.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
I actually just saw Jimmy Jam on Sunday and its
Purple Rain fortieth anniversary event they.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Had in downtown. Try to take us no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
It was fortieth anniversary of a Purple Rain and Jerome
was the host, right, So Jerome comes a bunch of
other people from the movie. Jimmy Jam was there to
talk about the music and everything, and they had a
screening of the movie and it was we're there. It's
like Rocky Horror Picture Show. Everybody is yelling lines like
like when Prince sss Apple you have to cleanse yourself
in Lake Minnetonka ice Up I.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Said, don't do don't.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Do it, because you know she jumps in and he
and everybody starts throwing toast. It's not like Minnetonka. So
it was one of the things. Jimmy Jam was there after,
answering questions like here's our panel. It's Jerome and a
couple other people from the movie and Jimmy Jam are like, wow, Okay.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
She's running in parallel with that. Jimmy Jam.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Jimmy Jam was also what they sometimes called Jimmy Garvin
when he was a member of the Fabulous Freebirds, So
you can run in parallel depending out which guy you
ran into, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
And he talked a lot about Minnesota and the Minnesota
music scene and in the early eighties and everything else.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
And I was like, okay, j now here he is.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
He's representing for Prince right, because Prince would be at
this game, because Prince came to all the game He
came to all the games.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
They play his music. They played when Doves Cry.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Which kind of bums me out that, you know, when
Doves Cry is the song they played before the games
because it's like the worst print song. But you know,
they played Let's Go Crazy right before the fourth quarter.
They might need a little bit more than that going
to the fourth quarter tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Maybe, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
I mean, it's kind of like at Wisconsin they have
tradition right around and then yeah, yeah, they're usually still
in the game.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, let's go.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Grant's gonna get it, and you're not gonna go in
any of the dirges, no slower songs, but yeah, we're
anything else in.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
We're gutther here today for the final game of the
NBA Seeds.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I think at this point the only reason this series
got expend extended was out of spite because Charles Barkley
started talking about his four month vacation. So the t
Wolves said, screw you. You're gonna have to change your flight.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
You want to complain about stuff, that's okay, you want
to complain about the end of the NBA on TNT,
But no, we're gonna.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Make you work an extra couple Don't you love working
with these guys. What's going on it?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
We tried to take that a couple more days. Jason, Yeah,
what he got, Frostburg. If the t Wolves keep this up,
they're gonna match the Syracuse Nationals. Look at a score
in nineteen forty nine, the lowest playoff game.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
What's what's that number? I think it's fifty six? Wow?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Okay, well he just hit a free throw, so now
it's only a thirty two point lead for for dev
It's come hell, you.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Gotta get a to o. Gotta get a to o
kind of stop the run, Jason Kid. Yeah, thirty seven percent,
thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
In a row. So Luca's got twenty nine, Kyrie's got nineteen.
They're shooting fifty eight percent from the floor. But there's
one big reason why the timber Wolves are losing tonight.
There's only one reason. One reason, only one reason why
the t Wolves.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Somehow only one.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Look, this is we can play like the old Game
Show where I hold up the sign I think I
know what it is. Doesn't rhyme with bulls?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
No, you can No, No, it doesn't. It doesn't. Wait,
suck doesn't rhyme with bulls.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Okay, we could. We could try that up. You could
blame Anthony Edwards. Yeah, hey, he is not having to No,
he's not being good. You could blame Rudy Gobert. You
could blame Rob Parker. You could blame Rob Parker if
you want. Oh, come on, I've been a lot of
money on news Gape. Now you can blame Karl Anthony Towns,
you can blame nos Reed just one for a lot
(04:52):
or yeah, yeah, but there's one reason why the Tea
Wolves are losing, Like, can you boil it down one
single word? Yes, I could. I could tell you exactly.
You want to know why I hit me? You wanna
know why, let's go. You're gonna say, hey, we know
our takes get stolen all the time, right, so this
is gonna be stolen because there's one reason why the
Day's losing this game. They stink. They stink tonight, they
(05:13):
stink out loud. This is embarrassing for a team that's
done so much talking about, Hey, we're gonna bring this back.
We'll see you in game six. And I got money,
I got jerseys from Michael Parsons, I got stuff everywhere.
I'll see you because it worked in the last series.
I'll see you back here.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
In game six. Oh yeah. And they showed up with
absolutely no energy.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
They showed up with no the stick tuitiveness in this game,
and Dallas was on them from the beginning and they
gradually pulled away and.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I'm like, boy, they did.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
They did a lot of talking and and Anthony Edwards
is sitting here rolling along at minus thirty one for
the game like this is embarrassing. Like if you if
you go back, if it's three to one, you go
back and lose. Okay, you go back and lose. You're
not ready, you're a young team. What we'll take that angle.
But you like to talk and yep and oh hey,
people like when I, you know, went at it with
the uh the the equipment manager for the for the
(06:04):
Nuggets last series.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
So I'm doing the same thing. I'll see you, forget
see you, I'll see you, I'll see you. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, no.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
They absolutely stinked that this is for a team to
do that much talking and that much Yeah, I'm happy.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I'm happy. I'm happy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do it.
For them to do that and then show up like.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
This, this is this is so bad at home, this
is so embarrassing.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Elimination game more snoop dog And if you read his
lips heed, uh, well we can't we can't do that
translation here, Oh okay, get ready for that next uh
Luca just hit a shot. And there's been reports he's
been dawn at someone all night long who held up
a handkerchief to indicate, hey, do you need this for
(06:47):
your crying to the officials, and then he put up
twenty in the first quarter and kind of just kept
staring at the whole.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Time and jawn with him.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
And then he hit that shot, got bumped in the
and one opportunity, and then immediately, you know, kept jawing away.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Uh. Yeah, it's it's an embarrassing showing. Overall.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You got ten of eighteen from three point range, the
Mavericks shooting nearly sixty percent as a team. No huge
free throw disparity, no huge turnover or rebounding disparity, just
lights out shooting.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
And on the other end, they're not moving the ball.
They hit a couple of threes here now back to back,
but you're down thirty points. I mean, you're you're gonna
start getting openly. Yeah, I dare you hit the shot?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
It's like, look, you're playing like you're playing in the
in the street.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeah. I'm not not gonna guard you take it. I'm
just gonna let the rebound. I got this.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
You can let me take this some time, all right,
And you sit there for like a couple of seconds,
all right, sit there, sit there, sit there, and then
shoot it. And of course it's a brick, so you know,
it's you're not gonna that's take it. Take you want
to take it, take it, take it, take it, take
that shot. Yeah, this is just an absolute beat down
from the beginning. And you know, look, it makes you
look back and go, what the hell happened to the
(08:02):
Mavericks and game but like what the hell happened to them?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Like what they had? Not Like they showed up.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
With much more impetus to end this series today than
they did in Game four when they could have ended
and they would have had three extra days and Luka
Doncic would have had three extra days of rest waiting
for the Celtics, waiting for the series to begin on
the fourth of July, and it would have been so
much better. But instead, now you're gonna have most likely
you're gonna have a week or whatever it's gonna be.
But it's like, how does a team show up at
(08:28):
home and be that have that lack of sense of
killer instinct when you're up three zip and yet here
coming back for game five, it's hey, we are all
business from the jump, and it's Kyrie and it's Luca
and it's everything you expected in game four.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah, I just go back to that Game four.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
I mean, Karl Anthony Towns hadn't shot for anything, right,
We were talking about how historically terrible he was, and
then he went and had a huge night.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Right.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
All of a sudden, the open shots were falling. Edwards
hit a couple of big shots that he'd been missing
in other games the Dallas and we talked with Mark
Stein about it, talking about the Dallas offense and how
stagnant it got. I brought up the absence of Derek Lively.
You know, as a defender. It might not matter a
lot in the other box score categories, but you know,
(09:15):
he clutters things up, and he's back tonight. And then
he got clocked and drew a flagrant one and hopefully
he's okay, because you know, you talk about neck and
upper back injuries or whatever. You get a little bit
nervous for guys when they hit the deck that hard.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
But it's all all of.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Those things conspired for the Timberwolves to force a game five.
And then Luca and Kyrie, you know, as the best
back duo in the history of basketball, just.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Came out and showed you who they were. Jason, Wait,
look well look they Mane. You want to be honest
about people, missing here. Let let's be honest about this game,
because look, the Timberwolves, there's some guys there missing that
would make huge differences. Okay, yes, Sam Cassell, Trenton Hassled,
Fred Hoiberg. They're missing Mark Madson, Google, Yeah, yeh're missing
(10:06):
Goose pretty well, Wally Serbiak. They're missing a lot of guys.
It would be difference making all year. Got Wally Siry, Wally,
do something funny.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
You are playing the Rick Casino game.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
No, I just went back to the two thousand and
four Minnesota Timberwolves, the team that was this is the
greatest team in the state of Minnesota has ever had.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I'll go back to the Fort timber That's what it was.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Kevin Love ain't walking through that door.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Dude, Jordan Love ain't walking through that door. It's Nicky
rub walking through that door. Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
So, this is where we're at right now, a little
bit under six minutes left to go in the third quarter,
and the Tea Wolves have cut it to twenty seven.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah, I mean Edwards is suddenly caught twenty side right.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
He's out four of what four of six from three
point ranges up to twenty one points.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So he's only minus twenty seven. Now twenty two minus
twenty two. Well, that's good, that's good. Again, a twenty
seven point lead for the Mavericks with five and a
half to go in the third quarter. I have a
feeling that about an hour from now, we're gonna be
looking out. I'm just saying this is the hot take.
We're gonna be previewing the NBA Finals like a siding
(11:08):
to the fact that, well, we're not gonna have to
parse out what did a referee not do?
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Hmm, yeah, that's true. No, that's good.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Well maybe you never know what can he said after
the game, Chris Finch could say, Hey, the referee screwed us.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
You saw the pregame. I said to you guys this pregame,
he screwed us. The what do you got, Chris Christian
leader ain't walking through that door.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Oh no, sure there's that. You're right, you're right about that.
But he talked about illegal.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Screens and how you got to battle through what you know,
the Luca illegal screens and all of that stuff, and
he said it with a straight face. Couple of members
of the media tried to laugh, and he just kept
going with his point. He's like Oh that's gotta be
thirty grand.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Right, I don't know. I mean if Adam Silver is
not paying attention, no, I know, we don't have anymore coming.
He's worried about Lamar right now.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
He's already on to how big a poster they need
to put it outside the draft for him.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Look, these guys are gonna be out of playoffs at
about seventy five minutes, so we don't need to worry
about finding anybody. Well, no, today we have to say
the entire offseason. It's not like anything new is happening
for Luca. It's not like, oh hey loo Hordes, look
what's going on now? All these illegal Caitlin Clark screens
that are being said, this is amazing. Oh it's not happening.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, there's plenty of time to talk about another seven
turnover performance there happening. But yeah, for the Timberwolves, show
a little bit of heart, right, it'll look respectable ish
in the box score. But we all watched what we watched,
and it was a disaster, and you started looking for
the Impractical Jokers or the bet cast to see what
(12:37):
the live line was.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Absolutely, you're looking right now. If I gave you the
t wolves and thirty. You're thinking about it, then game
betting is thirty right now, I'm thinking about twenty seven.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I'm thinking about it. Well, let's see what we got
thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I'm thinking exit out about a Fresco exit swollen down

a total of twenty two and a half. What do
you think if only you could jump?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, well I could. I could. I could use a
springboard if so.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
We talked three sheets of loose leaf paper, Oh, I
get over three sheets five?
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Yeah, so you're getting there? Are we talking the a
little bit? You know? Three for a dollar notebook size?
Can you clear a big mac? Oh? I could clear it.
But I could grab the Big Mac on the way

Speaker 5 (13:45):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
I'm not only that the measuring sticking over at Big
Mac on the way.

his hamburgers yet?

I didn't you just did you know?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
You said big Mac. Oh, that's what you were thinking.
That's I didn't say it. He was just trying to
get you. You just think I said, I've been projecting
that onto you. Uh. Craig Kinnear and Anchorman two.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
Ninety five to sixty nine, again just over minute and
a half left to go. The Mavericks now thirteen and

his team over the top embarrassing. Yeah, I know, I know.
Are you there for him? I'll down, I'll.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Do it for him. What are you talking about? You
can't prove that I said that. That was the whole
first segment.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
I know it was. But you still can't prove.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
That I said I have a rolling topic of Adobe
audition that says otherwise.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I don't know what that means, but that's a lie.
It's not an audition. We're we're hired. You can't build.
You can't build stuff with bricks and mutton here, come on, man, you.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Know what you're talking Adobe.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Like it's back.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
You're going to see something from like the sixteen hundreds
and oh yeah, look at this hut that's built with Adobe.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
They actually put someone in here the other day, the
smokehouse whose name is Adobe.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
She's from Nigeria, okay, and it means like first daughter.
So what can we forget about the hamburgers? Can we
just get some kudoba? Think cute dobo? Are they still
in business? That's a good question.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
They could have gone, like if they also went the
way of quiz Nos that wed what what's the next
chain that has a queue in its name?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I'll tell you what though. Quiznos at least had those
cool ads.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah, crazy lunatic quizzos up.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, I'll go on Quizzy, let's go,
let's go. I like I like they had the Quiznos
that would have the really slow toaster, so they put
your your sandwich through and you just watch it go
anticipation as the come on faster.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Give me my flat bread man. At least the hockey
game is good. Yeah, listen, hockey game is close. Games close.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
One, it's close, late third, come on now, doesn't get
closer than one? One no, not really now before we
get to Darren Waller, because we have to get to
Darren Waller, do we Yeah, dude, come on, the song
is so good. This song is so good, and I
have a great point.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Come on, man, I just like the we're casting for
someone who kind of looks like this woman.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Yeah, do you look like Kelsey Plumb? How would you
like to be in the video?
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Do I get? No? Yeah? What do I do?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
You just got to stand there and you look mad
at Darren Waller. So the Mets win today and I
got to get Francisco Lindork credit. He calls the clubhouse
meeting after Jorge Lopez, reliever.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Said Sammy Zain came in and closed it out. WWE
superstar E.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Says, you know, Hory Lopez on the worst team in baseball?
Where's blanket team in MLB? He gets dfaed by the Mets,
who have a week to outright release him, cut him.
He's not going to play for them again. Lindor calls
a meeting home run and a big go ahead double tonight.
So okay, the Mets win.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Mom Averages said he eventually had to hit home run.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Though, right, yeah, well yeah, eventually, Well he's still hitting
two fifteen, so there's you know, but you got a
w But what did we tell you was going.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
To happen last night?
Speaker 1 (18:39):
The whole discrepancy that there was in the beginning with
Jorge Lopez who said in an interview, I play on
the worst team in blanken MLB, and I saw a
lot of lazy reports on this story today about oh look,
he didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
He meant to say teammate bubh blah blah.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
And we told you last night, I said, I guarantee
you he's going to say today he's not going to
understand the blank storm that he is incited and how
much he has hurt his career. He's going to come
out and say I was misquoted, you know, because obviously
there you know, there is a language, a barrier that
could be there. But that's why Steve Gelbs, the Mets reporter, said, Hey,
just to clarify, you said you played on the worst
(19:19):
team in Major League Baseball. Yeah, probably okay, And then
a third time it was confirmed by Anthony Dicomo, who's
a beat reporter for the Mets. Hey, just to let
you know, I triple confirmed this, and what Lopez meant
to say was I'm the worst teammate on the worst
team in Major League Baseball. So that was triple confirmed.
But I knew he's going to come out today and
say he was misquoted.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
And what did he do.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
He came out today and said, Hey, I said I
was the worst teammate. Thanks media for making this worse. Okay,
now let me just say this. First of all, there
was nothing even close to the word teammate.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
It's not we talked about it.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
I was your teammate, but it wasn't, you know, drawn
out syllable, a swallowed mate.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Yeah, but I don't hear that kind of thing, bye bye,
and hear it. Now, maybe he didn't. Maybe he meant
to say something.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
That's why he was asked again about it, and again
three times this was confirmed. But still he wants to say,
oh thanks media, Hang on time out for a second.
If you want to sit here and say, oh, hey,
I didn't get I didn't know what was being asked
to me. You were the guy who walked into that
interview and said, I do not regret throwing my glove
in the stands and embarrassing the Mets. I do not
(20:25):
regret that and then you want to go out and
throw in profanity when you talked about being the worst teammate,
worst team in MLB.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
So I don't think there was any Hey.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
You got ambushed on your way out of the out
of the shower and anybody stuck a microphone in your face. No,
you went up there with that agenda of I'm good.
First thing I'm gonna say is I do not regret
my actions. He didn't walk back away from that, so
he knew what he was saying when he's talking to
the media all of this now, but I knew last
night he doesn't understand the blank storm he has instigated.
And now he knows that who knows where his career
(20:53):
is going to be, the Mets are going to let
him go. He was good for the first part of
the ear ITTHM was off the last couple of times.
Maybe somebody signs up, maybe somebody doesn't. He's got to
do that image repair. So he said, Oh, I'm gonna
say I was misquoted. Dude, you went in there talking
to the media with an agenda to say something. What
you said was confirmed too different, Okade, you said it
and then before was put out there it was confirmed,
(21:15):
and then a Mets beed reporter confirmed it after that.
So stop with this whole Oh hey, thanks media, my fault.
WHOA Okay, Well, first of all, if you're that mad,
you aren't you threatening something.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
We're trying some kind of action of this.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
No, you were asked three times, three times, and you
could have walked away and said no, I didn't mean
to say. If you didn't mean to say it, you
would have put that out last night. Right, You're not
waking up this morning and going, hey, I got to
say something. You know, this is a big deal. You
know last night you're getting dfaid. So you put that
statement out last night, You put something out on social
media or through your agent saying hey I never said this,
and now suddenly today it's oh yeah, no, thanks media
(21:48):
for making it worse. No, no, no, not buying it.
Not buying You said it, own it, and now move on.
You gotta do that. I've always said, well, you say something,
say what you want to say. I love that you're
telling the truth, because yeah, the Mets are the Mets
do stink and they are really really bad. I get
all that. I watched the games. I get all that,
but you got to own what you say and move
on from there. Now he wants to back away, going,
oh I didn't really no, no, no, you knew and
(22:09):
you walked in there with an agenda. That's why he's
got to own what he said and move on.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, it's one of those things because we immediately in
parsing out the words and the verbage. And look, obviously,
you being a Mets fan, this one hits you a
little differently, right, given the way the team is playing,
so some of that comes in. But I think we're
fair to it, right, grabbing all of the sound, grabbing
all the subsequent efforts to get points of clarification, the
(22:37):
ample opportunity to walk back the statement.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Di Como's comment.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
You know, he goes, hey, there was a lot of confusion.
This goes back twenty four hours almost. You know, there
was a lot of confusion over team teammate, and then
it was worst teammate on the worst team, and we're like, well,
what's going on right behind the scenes. The team obviously
is struggling, So you've got internal strife, whether it's managed you,
you got players not getting along, whatever's causing the dysfunction.
(23:04):
You're always trying to get inside, uh and maybe get
a little bit of a glimpse into that cord or
to see what's up. And then for Lopez, we find
out more about what's going on in this personal life
beyond his struggles on the mound. He's got, you know,
a sick child that that he's tending to and and.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
We put that in as part of it.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
It's like, you just don't know what anybody's going through, right,
And that's one of the the over overriding things, and
you know, just being kind and recognizing people are all
having their own moments. But in this case, he had
he had the opportunity to clarify, right, you have people
on staff that can help you in those interview situations.
(23:45):
Nobody was there with him. Why is that right? So
you know it's a cacophony, uh, and you know, just
an analgam of errors that come together. And he says
the unfortunate bart Now when he opens by saying, I
don't regret throwing my glove. You're not you're not putting
your giving yourself a lot of room for doubt, right,
(24:07):
you know, the benefit of the doubt is not going
to be there for you. When oh yeah, no, I
meant to throw it and I don't regret it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
It's like, Okay, that's the easiest thing to walk back from.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Hey, it was a moment of frustrations. We've been going bad.
I've had some tough outings, et cetera. But he doubled
down on that and then offered many opportunities to pull
it back. And again, good thoughts to him, you know,
and the people in his life and his son and
all of that. But for this circumstance, you know, the
two run in running parallel, right that you still have
(24:42):
the professional responsibility and for a team, you know, I
saw so many calls like, well, that was too rash.
I'm like, really, I don't.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I don't think it's too rash. I think at some
point as at it.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Just from his performance. You were already at a Pens performance.
You're talking about that guy, the guy gave up six
runs that got thrown out by the third base up.
You want to talk about his performance, but you were
already had a hot kid me. Maybe you were looking
at options for him as it was right before the
glove goes flying over the netting.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
And now here we are.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Look, he walked in with an agenda. He wanted to
say what he said, and now, unfortunately, this is what
happens when athletes see, oh this has gotten out of
control for me. I gotta how do I find a
way to walk I almost feel like he got on
Twitter and got on social media and said, boy, how
can I walk this back? And maybe him or you know,
his age who ever, said, Hey, there's some people on
(25:36):
social media saying, maybe you didn't mean to say that,
you meant to say teammate instead. Meanwhile, you don't hear
the word teammate from You don't hear the word teammate.
You hear something and then, but again confirmed by Steve Gelbs,
you say worst team in Major League Baseball. So I
almost felt like he got on social media say, what's
an excuse that that could fly? Oh there's people here
thinking you may said teammate. Oh all right, I'll go
with that. Like, really, I really think that's what happened.
(25:57):
How can I get out? Who's got my back on
social media? What can I say?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Like?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
What can I say?
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Hey, I was just trying to bring fire to the team.
I was trying to all these things. Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely,
that's good. Happen no, I just gotta own it. You
said it, and you gotta own it. It sucks sometimes
it sucks, but you gotta own it because that's what
you meant to.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
That was the image of what you meant to get
out there.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
But as we talked about with the first blush, like
you're trying to give him the benefit of the doubt,
right going through the language and wondering if the emotions
did he swallow the word mate like, I think that's
where perhaps he's tried to find the gray area and
people that you want to just dismiss it categorically forgetting
the other part of it right, owning up to oh yeah,
(26:38):
I wanted to throw my glove and I don't take
it back. Trying to find some grace. Emmitt the aka
the Blind Seahawks fan writes in on Twitter at how
about a Fresca and swollen dome? There's a quiz Nos
thirty minutes away from me. Add for the first time
a couple of months ago.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That was pretty good.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Yeah, so there you go, the first time they've been
around for like twenty years. No have they got out
and got themselves a business. So you know, we all
come to things in our own time. Tell me I
still remember the first time I had Quizzo's was in
Houston in nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Houston, this is great. Houston, Yeah, Houston, Houston. H o
U st Oh did you follow this ound of the
beating trash can?
Speaker 5 (27:16):
No?
Speaker 2 (27:17):
It was one of those things where I was there
covering the l No. No, I was there.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
I was there, trash fandom. Honey, sandwich is here because
I'm hungry. I just got off the plane, and boy.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Omer, are you eating that sandwich?
Speaker 1 (27:29):
It's really humid here in Houston and I gotta change
shirts already. My god, it's so human. All I did
was walk out of the airport.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
It's not the heat. No, what you eaten? Trash can sandwich?
What do you joint me with? That up as a
pole question?
Speaker 3 (27:46):
So he has ever eaten a sandwich out of the
trash can of a track like Castanza?
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Ate that he?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Claire Jorhei Lopez said, no, before you did it, stops top. No,
I'm trying to think, like in my life have I
ever thrown something out? I've ever thrown something out like
for a quick not not like a not in like
a public trash can, but like in my house. Have
I thrown something? Oh wait, there's something in there I
want and pulled it right back out. I'm sure I
thought about that five second rule. I've done that. Oh,
(28:12):
I've waited in the you know what I found out?
Actually it is it.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
I read this. I don't know how true this is. No,
it's so much cleaner.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
No, I read this is actually the five second rule
is actually a thirty second rule. I've read many many
scientists said that it takes thirty seconds of you dropping
something on the floor for microbes whatever it is, to
get on there and find your the food, whatever it
is and start doing bad things. So if you can
get up in thirty seven, I'm like, you can't get
it up in thirty seconds, that's just it.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
I turned the lights off and wait like two minutes.
You'll find out if you have vermin.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
I really want.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
I wanted to go full Michael Scott there, but I
decided not to. You can't go fool anything. But no,
I mean once it gets outside of once you get
close past ten seconds, it's like, oh, oh, I don't know, yeah, done, done, done,
done done. Third, But thirty seconds I found third. Now again,
I don't know how right that is. And I don't
recommend picking up food off a floor and eating it,
but I just want to say something I read said
(29:09):
it was a thirty second. Yeah, you take bigger risks
every day. Sure, I'll walk the street like the risk
we're taking right now? What do you mean walking the street?
What are you talking about?
Speaker 4 (29:17):
Like?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Walk?
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Take a walk down the street, like I'm gonna start
trying to beat people out of money with three card moneys.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
He follow the queen, follow the queen. Say you followed
the street? I said, you're walking down the street. Time square. Hey,
what do we got? We got whoa whoa too soon?
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Yeah, I can't believe Tyree Hill is happy seeing some
of the Tyreek Hill and Brandon Ayuk the two most
unhappy wide receivers of the Brandon Ayuk.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
I'm waving to get from an island the next couple
of months. I'm coming to work on that contract.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
These guys are getting more than I feel like, Tom Brady,
you're gonna pay that mother blanker.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Yeah, that guy over me. Come on, man, that guy's
getting money. Or you could be Luca and say that
and then run away. That is you know, we have
to get to Luca's trash talk.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
We will get to that again one eighty two, with
about eight minutes left to go. Again, we're waiting to
crown the Mavericks Western Conference champions. But I got enough
time to make a crown at this time. Way you might,
you might make that. We'll make that crown like in
Midsummer and make the big, the big dress out of
all the flowers too. Are you gonna wear a bear
suit you want to crown. I'm gonna gonna stick Cheety's
(30:17):
foot out of the water. Why plant his foot in
the ground? I mean, come on, why, let's just that's
just Bill Walton breaking down midsummer. Why are you planting
someone's foot tooth around there's nothing going.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
To grow out? A said, I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Why do you cut a man's entire torso open and
he's still pretty still breathing, and you all you want
to do is just.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
Bring in somebody else.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
You want to bring in Florence Pew, who is just
the black Widow's sister. You're bringing her into your community
in Sweden?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
What is that? That's that's it? Jolena yo uh coming
up next.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Yes, we really have to get into Darren and what
the Giants tight end did today. We really it's a
must list himself to day. It's next right here, Jason.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific, Fox.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with My best friend
Mike Harmon. Looks like the Panthers are going to take
Game five Eastern Conference Finals. They just scored an empty
net goal. Panthers lead the Rangers three to one under
two minutes left to go. Meanwhile, a twenty one point
lead for the Mavericks with just about four minutes left
to go in the fourth quarter. Here again, we are
waiting to anoint the Mavericks Western Conference champions. Yes, So
(31:37):
while waiting for that, we have to get to Darren Waller. Now,
this has been a topic that has come up over
the past couple of weeks. People just really just found out, Hey,
he and Kelsey Plumber married. Wow, I didn't know that.
Has he retired yet?
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Yes? That was yes?
Speaker 3 (31:51):
That was The other possibility is Darren Wallers were the
two stories they finalized the divorce.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Can I shoot my shot? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:58):
With Kelsey plom Sure and leather vests and whatever else
she's got going on, and left arm is a cow
and she's got a cigar line and all this other
shit going on. Sure, so you got that or did
he finally announce he was retiring so if you had
him in a dynasty league you could safely cut him.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Now we know that they're getting divorced. They've been married
for about a year. Yeah, it's tough. They're getting divorced.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
And uh, while Kelsey plumb is is is rare to
go having a having a terrific start here to the
w NBA season or outfit she's wearing before the games
are gaining a lot of attention. Again, this is the
w NBA's time to grab the spotlight. Now that Stone
called Steve Austin vest.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
That was pretty don't you want to put his music
over the top with the broken glass.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
I don't understand how his vest fit her like that. Well,
they make difference at the angle, I think it was.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
It's camera angles.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
You sometimes when you shoot at force perspective, it looks
like it's left anyway. So Darren Waller maybe because he
was upset people taking Kelsey plumb sikes and social media.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
That's what it was.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
It was, Oh my goodness, how did Darren Waller FuMB
this woman away? He decided to say, you know what,
I'm going to record a song and I'm going to
tell you about my perspective of this relationship with a
song and a music video.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Now.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Robert Latall of Black Sports Online dropped this earlier. Today
is where a lot of people saw it.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Darren Waller. It's a music video, it's a.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Song, and it's told from the perspective of if Darren
Waller was Kelsey Plumb and things that she would say
to him. But it's him singing. Let's hear a little
bit of Darren Waller. I'm sorry America life.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
It's hard to love in life. See the change. Act strange.
It's hard.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
It's hard, man, Why I've never known.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Take it time, Just take a time out.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I'm walking around all day going up.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
I was just thinking the idea that you just stole
that all from Elvis. Yeah, well, I wonder if how
much you loansome tonight, how much music is really seemed
to change?
Speaker 2 (34:26):
You acted strange and why I.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Think you sort of you know, you take music from
different errors and do it. But honey, you lied when
you said you loved me.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
I've been I've been walking around dagging time. It's really
stuck in your head. And I watched this moment said
to you guys, I was like, that was the last
I thought of it. I watched this video like three
dagging time here.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
You know, here's the thing is you see something likes
to go wow, this is where it's twenty twenty four
and here's an athlete who puts out a divorce track
with a video. And before I sit here and say
how ridiculous that, I said to myself, Man, if I
could have done this when I was in my early twenties,
I'd have been a legend, like breakup tracks with video.
I would have told the truth about relationships. I'd have
(35:09):
been more like Eminem. You would have been like Doug
Heffernan and singing the Marghie song. And then and then
what about what you told me you weren't gonna be
at Sutter's Mill? And I went there and I checked,
and you were there, but you never knew I was
there because I left. But you said you were home
and you weren't home, and I was there and I
saw you like I would be. I'd be a legend man.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I'd sounded a lot like the track you had a
cut for Lebron not showing up at the pizza place
mic House, and.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Then you said you were going to show up in
Culver City, and then you kept saying you put it
out on Twitter and everybody's there, and you got all
these vans here.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Lebron, Why you so mad?
Speaker 1 (35:40):
I do want you as a friend, but you got
to show up in pizza places when you say you're
showing up. If I could have done dis tracks or
break up tracks, like if that was a thing in
the early nineties, dude, I'd have been a legend man.
People said, but hey, dude, can you write me a
disc track or a breakup track for my girlfriend? I said, oh,
one hundred percent I could. But the time is not
not done. All those people left holes in your soul.
(36:02):
Now's your time to fill those. So you start writing
those songs, you get yourself together, you get your auto tune,
and then you make a video. It's with girls that
look like the girls that strode you over. Well, dude,
especially with auto tune, well, the music video would just
be you handed out mets outs to all of them,
taking time yeah, Hory Lopez. Yeah, taking time a little
(36:23):
over size two three out of time now that they're
unclearing tom Tommy fam saying the Mets are bad, taking time,
but going back in his time right, It's not so
much that his head was bigger than everybody else's.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
It was the fact that, you know, you're also talking
eighties and nineties New York, New Jersey hair.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah, dude, I mean especially so, I mean, you're gonna
need a bigger hat to go.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
But then if you're.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Worried about my singing, but you heard the auto tune
on amazing, Like, why.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I'm still mad I didn't buy Auto two?
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Who was at the t paint and like microphone that
they had with the auto tune and stuff?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Really mad? I didn't buy a bunch of them.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
One of your lines, Jason would be like I missed
the pole or bear.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Taking time to watch him Mets lose. Taking time to
watch him lose. He's been doing this for the last
taking break. I wish I was around, man.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I read so many things. Oh yeah, life was better
in the old days. Nominate if we could have if
I could have had that that at my dispose, But
it's there now. Yeah, but I'm Yeah, but I'm married now,
I've been married for a long time. You can't get
your revenge.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
Go ahead, Hamburger, Hamburger, Hamburger, Hamburger.
Speaker 1 (37:31):
Snap, taking time, mad I tried taking time.
