Speaker 3 (01:10):
I think that Robber for once, just once, Alex rob
might not say this is too easy. It's too easy,
just for one. We had to amend it, literally had
to amend it for you.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
What did I say didn't I say that when you
first talked about it, of course you're out of my mouth.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Was that we already changed it? Yeah? Did you really
change it? I mean it's the same concept. But the
little bit we had the minute we're talking Rob Gen,
he said, Oh, I think that's a hold up. You know,
he's good. That's too easy, And to be honest, it's
too easy for all of us. I think I think
everyone listening now I had an answer that would surprise
you really really. Oh was it? Was it the radio?
(01:46):
It was thunder? And for yes, it was there that
kind of that even if thunder was like huh, who
is this?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Rob G and sgs like that even I don't believe us.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Was like, I know, I know he ain't talking about us, right,
talking about four percent had to rain or thunder actually
happened to real thunder. But yeah, so looking forward to
that too, rob We got to house some fun with that.
One's got to go a little.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Bit like all right, Rob G, can you clue us in,
not set the table, but just tell us what's going
in on? Caitlin Clark and she got mugged, I guess
in the game the other day last night.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Right, I've decided that the verbiage on one out, I'll say,
what is it?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
I'll see you up. I'll be a caddy. So it's
the same thing. What's the difference. Okay, the caddy was bad.
Caddy get paid.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
So what if if you set the table, you're not
getting paid, not as much as a caddy is.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
This might be a city course, though you might not
be getting too much. It's local, private paying people in
LA thirty dollars for fast food. Now that's not your point.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
I did see an in and out They say, come
work for us twenty seven dollars an hour.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
So do you know how much in and out managers make? Yeah,
they make like a buck fifty bucks, seventy five or
one hundred thousand. Make sure people understand i'maying one hundred
and seventy five thousand a year or something like that.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
But I'm not joking when I say it. If radio
falls apart, I want to work at Costco.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
No, you've said that several times. We believe you seen
what they make.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
But here's the thing that that I think, and I'm
not more power to him. Let no, no, no, I'm talking
about when they originally did fast food restaurants. It was
supposed to be for kids in high school. Okay, yeah,
that was the everybody worked, you know, you worked. It
was a part time job, job, fun job that you
(03:24):
rob g right or wrong.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
And then all of a sudden they couldn't rely.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
The kids didn't want to work whatever, and then adults,
grown ups made it like their careers. And this is
what was the imbalance, because that wasn't really when I
was a kid.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Only kids fourteen years old, right, yeah, my favorite job,
that was it? Man, you can eat all the fries.
That was well, we used to. We knew how to
cherry pick the nuggets, like which one was the good one.
We know how an eyeball and that's now I'm gonna
throw up in my mouth because he was his hands
all over. No, no, no, no, no, no, not. We
just we knew when we were making my own little
twenty pack or whatever it was, dude, we used to
(03:59):
it was we would make our own breakfast sandwiches. Oh yeah,
double sausage egg, put a hash brown and oh yeah,
what a great job. To your point, when you're fifteen,
I was working with my benefits. Shout out to vic.
But if you're married and got two kids. That's a
tough job to have. Stressful, that's all you're gonna You're
gonna get some good pay, but you struggle. Dub to
your point.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
My brother is one of his best friends, swears to
this day that he invented the buffalo uh blue cheese
on buffalo wings when he worked at Dominoes because they
would do the same thing. They'd have the food and
be able to make whatever they would want. They oh,
someone canceled an order. Okay, like we're keeping it.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Man.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
We used to have so much fun. We would throw
frozen sausage patties, everybody having Oh my gosh, you shout out, man,
we had so we shot to mona hand, no wonder mine,
no sauceress. Patty had hair like, man, why does a
little crunchy? This my bad? It was on the floor.
Y'all deserved that twenty hours. That was back in the
Mick Archer era. Roger, you remember that I do the
Mick Archer Do you remember that? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I do the making up burgers Like I was like
cold on one side, hot on the other, and then
you would put it together. That was a but the lettuce,
the tomato would be on one side and then the
hot hamburger on the other side, and.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
It had Canadian bacon. Right.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Well, not a game changer when you think about it. Nowadays,
everything the same. Everyone's got tenders, you.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Know what they call a Canadian bacon and Canada bacon
American bacon.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
All right.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Got back to the storico of what was that Tuesday night?
It might have been the lead of the show. Did
we have the Laker news? Kaylen Clark? She was at
it again. Her team beat the Connecticut Son eighty seventy
one in a game that we watched during this show. However,
because you know Rob never misses a WNBA game.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Wrating is that right now?
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Yeah, we didn't get to really spend too much time
during the show talking about it. But if you were watching,
there were multiple skirmishes throughout this game, and one of
them involved Kaitlin Clark. As you guys mentioned during the
play in question, Kayln Clark got raked across the eye,
looked like it got poked, might have got scratched, but
(06:01):
it was.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Just to not to face.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
She gets upset, kind of pushes the defender off of her,
and in a split second, a different player runs up
and hip checks her right there in the in the
side of the rib cage. She goes flying to the floor.
People start arguing, look like it's gonna be a big
brewe a. They separate everything, interestingly enough, no ejections, no
flagman fouls, and Kaylyn Clark herself was assess the technical
(06:28):
but because it was Kaitlyn Clark, she is the golden goose,
it became a big talking point once again. Hey, what's
up with these WNBA women trying to hurt Kaitlyn Clark.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Stop babying her. Stop babying her. She's absolutely going to
get filed. She's gonna get filed hard at times. This
is part of the game. Who's the greatest player ever
to touch a basketball? Michael Jordan? You know what Michael
Jordan got did first a couple of years, two three years,
They got beat up. People will stop flying the air.
You're not about to embarrass me dunking on people doing
(07:02):
all this. Put your tongue back in your mouth, all
of that. This is part of the course a little bit.
And yes, she's getting fould hard, and yes, this is
a part of the game. And you know what the
best part about this is, you know who isn't complaining.
Caitlyn Clark. You know who isn't making a big brew
out of this. Caitlyn Clark. She gets into it. She
gets chippy by the way. She gets in the middle
(07:23):
of some of this. She ins to Gates, she talks smack,
she'll bump somebody. So she is a part of this
as well. And she knows this is part of the game.
And she also knows I'm a superstar, I'm young, I'm
the face of the league. And a lot of people
don't like it comes with the territory. It is what
it is. I'm very popular. I love this opportunity to
get to play the game I love. And she's alright
with it more than everybody else. She is the one
(07:44):
who doesn't make a big deal of it. So to me,
I think we make a big deal of something that
we ask for. What do we say we want? We
want passionate, we want people to care. We want tenacity,
we want toughness, we want rivalries. We want that in
our sports. Oh wait, they're getting tough. They're being rivalries.
They're pushing each other. Do you want to know you
don't want it? We say we want it, we want aggressive,
(08:04):
We want people to we have the games to matter,
and then when they do, they're chippy, they're putting it,
you know, they're they're fighting for it. Then we have
issues with it. So to me, we're making a big
thing out of nothing. Every time she gets touched up,
it's a thing. And I think that's what also adds
to the frustration of the w NBA players. My guys,
when we follow her, we can't do it today, we chip,
we get a little chippy with her. It's a big thing.
And I think that adds to why they get their
(08:26):
extra little push for them, you know, money for the push,
push for the money, I should say. So, I don't
think it's a big deal. I don't even think she
thinks it's a big deal because they after the game,
she goes, are we gonna talk basketball or what y'all
call me up here to talk some hoops? What are
we talking about? All these technical files and all that about?
So to me, stopbabing her. It's She's a part of it.
She's an adjutant at times, she frustrates people at times
(08:48):
as part of the game. And to me, I thought
we wanted that. I thought we wanted people who cared
and passionate anymore. Rob, I don't see a big deal
about this, as like we're making it a big deal
when even the person involved doesn't think it's a big deal.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Yeah, I just think, uh, she's jumped to shark. The
whole Caitlyn Clark thing is now like bigger than life,
and every little thing is Look, oh they hate her,
they're jealous. Even in basketball plays can get she can
be fouled hard.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
It's everything. It's okay, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
If they're pulling her hair and eye galluging her and
you know and all that, then maybe I'm like, Okay,
something's going on here.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
But you can't even be like just pulling hair and
I got it's just O w w E, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Like, but the idea that if they do anything was
physical to her, it's it's like Dave Roberts having a
stomach ache because because show hey got hit Oh my god,
all the end of the world, showy old tiny got
hit by a ball.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
What are they doing? Like this is the people get
hit by a ball.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
They okay, you're you're a swinging that, Well, I'm a
I'm gonna pitch you in I might hit you. Let
you know, the back up a little bit. Don't get
too comfortable in the box. Same thing with her. Come on, man,
it's just ridiculous everything Caitlyn Clarke. This, we get it.
She's the cash cown. But we can't say are we
gonna stop playing basketball? Why don't you just suspend anybody
(10:18):
who breathes on her? I mean, it's it's it's a joke.
It really is getting to that.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I'm with you, and I keep bringing up anytime it's
brought up. She's the one like, hey, it's part of
the game. It is what it is. Right now, I'm
just happy we're playing well and my shots fall like
she moves on like it's she knows it's part of
the game. You know who was the cash cow the
NBA in the eighties, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. You
know it was getting the head taken off Larry Bird
(10:43):
and Magic Johnson. So to me, things happen. I'm not
saying she gotta getting clothes line all the time, but
what I'm saying is a hard following. If you looked
at it, the original defender was reaching for the ball
just happened to hit her face and then the other
girl and then Caitlyn kind of gets to her chest like, hey,
don't be hit me in the face. And then the
other girl, of course, defends her teammate. So to me,
we can't do this, you can't clamor and cry for
(11:03):
we want this. We want tough, we want passion, we
want that, we want to feel like you really want it.
And then when I really want it and things it
chippy And what have we been happy about this postseason?
In the NBA, they're letting them play again. The passion
is there again. Guys are competing again. Look at guys.
It's getting a little tough and little chippy out there again.
We like that, we want that, and we're getting that
(11:25):
into w NBA. It just happens to me. She's a star,
and stars get beat up, stars get iced out of games,
stars get filed, stars get pitched in close. Stuff happens, right.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I just don't like, I get it, you don't want to,
you don't want you don't want you don't want her
injured or something that's like out of bounds and I
get that, But but a hard foul basketball, like it's
the end of the world, Like, don't make it like that,
because then the players really will resent her, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
What I mean.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
And that's what I say, and this, yeah, you don't
want to do that. Let her be like everybody else.
You got knocked down, other players getting knocked down every night.
I'm sure all the players are looking going, dude, are
you kidding? That happened to me four times last night.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Nothing happened when Steph Curry started to become Steph Curry
in the NBA. Steph Curry was getting some hard files
because people were like, all right, you ain't about to
be doing all that shimmy shimmy, shooting threes, biting your
little mouthpiece. He was getting hard files. He was running
off the screens. People were giving a little extra little chip,
a little extra little bump, you know what I mean.
When you're when you're doing something unique and different and
(12:29):
in your game has a tendency to embarrass people. People
ain't trying to be embarrassed. They're gonna let you know,
I'm gonna touch you up a little bit. And that's
part of the game. And it always has been part
of the game. And she knows that. And I give
her credit to me for not making a big deal
not Why Why is it always me? Why is everybody
picking up me? She's she's tough, she's out there, she's
talking smack and she's flexing when she's busting threes and
(12:50):
they're forty feet out and she's she's enjoying the game.
And I like that about her that even when it
went college it was issues and what was going on. Andrew,
She's like, man, it's part the game. Y'all keep making
a big deal. It reminds me of Larry Bird when
out that stuff, and when Dennis Robin was like, oh
Larry Bird was black, he'd be just another guy whatever.
And Isaiah Thomas kind of echoed the door, and Larry
Burr said, man, y'all the ones making this a big deal,
(13:12):
I'm over it. Fro you know, I accept their apology.
Let's move on. She's like, can we just talk hoops?
And I like that about her, no doubt, all right?

On in Sacramento.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio and our
phones are working again.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Yeah, I said that we're back.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yeo, I'll go rub a dozen. Mother cousin killed me
and my brother's behind the board. Man, it's been a minute.
Man had to have to have to skip my daughter's
swim practice of to day and make sure I got my
call in time.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Real, don't get in trouble later.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
True father of the Year material. You heard me, Katy,
but real quick man. Look, man, the drama is the
best thing that could happen for Caitlyn Clark. They got
guys like that Gottlie clutching his pearls, given terrible takes
about how women can't even bring their daughters for the
game anymore because of the violence. Are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Any way? He said that.
Speaker 6 (15:52):
He said that, Hey, worst take I've heard so far
from anybody in the national media. Women love drama.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Meanwhile, meanwhile, they're taking their daughters to hockey games where
people getting punching teeth fall out.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
Okay, exactly, bro, Hey, honestly, it's the way life is.
Just because you're cute, just because you're popular, just because
everybody loves you and you're the favorites of WNBA, don't
mean that you're immune to these hands.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Man.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
They gonna try to take you.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Out, just like they did Jordan with the Jordan rules
back in the day, and it just made him bigger.
The w NBA should be thanking they're lucky stars because
those ratings were in the pooper without her.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Yeah, you're trying to tell you all about that, Andre
in Massachusetts.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Drake? Hey?
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Yeah, Hey, how you doing. Thanks for taking a call.
Speaker 9 (16:43):
Listen.
Speaker 8 (16:43):
I'm a similar mind of Sewing from Sacramento in that
no news is bad news, and if it has to
start with the drama, I think that does bring people
in because they are fascinated by all of the underlying storylines,
you know, around race, culture, all of those things that
project themselves on the Kate Caitlin Clark. That's when people
might first kind of tune in, But then they will
(17:05):
get a chance to see what's going on with the
w NBA and create Kaitlin Clark being an outstanding basketball player.
So bottom line is, I think it's going to continue.
I don't think it's going to stop that Caitlin Clark
is going to be the face of the w NBA
for good, you know, whether people like it or not,
because of who she is and how she's playing. And
then it's always going to the conversation is always going
to move into these other secondary topics about you know,
(17:26):
whether she's getting undue privileged, so on and force. But
hopefully my point is, I hope we can bring it
back to her just being an outstanding basketball player and
being good for the game, and you know that can
be what we conclude by I don't see stopping and
I don't have a problem.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Well, I just think there's a chance you could fatigue
people rob when it's oh my gosh, another Okay, Wow,
she's filed big deal twenty two day conversations and thesis.
If it's something.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
That's really out of the ordinary, the okay, you had
to talk about it.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
But every time she ever, And that's where I think
to different with Andre. I think people can get tired
of that and not want to tune in period. My guy,
I don't want to hear that now regular filed again, right,
Brian in Tennessee, Tennessee. You're in the odd couple of
fives Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee.
Speaker 9 (18:11):
That's right. I am wearing shoes right now.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
There you go. And do you have on a shirt
when you're going to the restaurant. I'm just sighing.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
I got a shirt on right now. I'm driving a truck.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Oh, gor shoes.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
I started wearing shoes about ten years ago.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Look at your growing up out here.
Speaker 9 (18:27):
Brian's yes, Hey, listen, rubberneck. And you know when you
you you're behind your way back in the line, and
you're you know, the in your car and these freaking
beaver going so slow because they're looking for blood. Many
people just like to see blood, And I'm going to
tell you they like to see blood, right, on the
hockey rink. That's the only reason I would watch. I
(18:48):
have never watched the w NBA game because it's boring
until Caitlyn came along. Let the controversy keep it up,
because that's the that's what's drawing people. I like to
see them having these kinds of come I don't want
to decide. That's that's what draws me to the news.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
No, I got it.
Speaker 9 (19:04):
Why I watched the game.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I think, to me, I like rivalry. It doesn't have
to be just any other thing is drum like. I
like that. That's my whole point was that we want
the tension, we want the right, the passion, we want
them to care. But to then I think it's more
so not what's happening in the game. It's the discussion afterwards,
like oh my god, they hate her. Oh why they're
(19:27):
hurting their cash? How are they? That's more's more tiresome
than the file. The file is part of the game.
Leo in New York City, you're on the couple of
Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Leo?
Speaker 7 (19:37):
Well, guys, I agree with everybody. I'm almost I should
have said sentiment. Hey, if I'm a descender, I'm not
gonna come here and let her dream like a logo
three in my face and show boat and talk the
chunks because she's does all that, so you're gonna rock
her up a little bit because that's the only advantage
that you have. Right But this but this morning, I
(19:58):
was listening to the facility and my point made the
point that gave me a little puzzled. So guys, hear this.
We saw, however rating tanks when she was away, right,
she was injured. Now if we let the league rush
her up and she gets injured the game and then
Louise were rating and then lose your attendant, how is
(20:20):
that reflecting unrelief? You see what I'm saying. So, I mean,
I'm agreeing behave let them play, but you also have
to like look at the fact that when she's not
on the game. Hey, Rob, you carried the flag talking
about however rating plummeted.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
I told you, Leo, I said it way before that.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I told her, and that one game Rob g brought up.
I said it was the Fever were playing. And remember
I said, they just didn't know she wasn't playing in
that game, and they want that game.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
I guess, I guess we'll let me too. Oh she
ain't playing playing now accounting that that's right, and you
turn to it. No, Leo, thank you man, appreciate the colleague.
I hear Leo's point of the eye. You don't want
to hurt her, lose her. But I still think File
was a part of the game. A star trying to
stop her part, a star player who's dropping thirty at night.
We gotta find a way to stop her, and she's
gonna get triple team hard File. That's just gonna be it.
(21:11):
Even if her name was Caitlyn Jordan like that would
absolutely happen for sure. All Right, we got one's gotta
go coming up in a little bit. Plus we got
to talk about you mentioned it earlier. Dave Roberts had
a fit about something, and then we got to see

Speaker 3 (21:41):
The couple. Robin Kelvin on a worship Wednesday, and Rob,
you brought it up earlier. That's right, Hallelujah, praised the Lord.
You took some shots at Dave Roberts. Was he was
wilding out a little wow going at the umps, getting
kicked out of games because shoe Hey caught a pitch
right in the cheeks. He got bye.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Well, if you're gonna throw at him, just own it,
like I just know what was that? Like? The Padres
had to go yeah, yeah, we do at him, like
we mean, just own it, saying what the chest, rob
g you did the math? We did the math earlier.
He's been in the league for eight years, been hit
twenty four times? Really has he been hit a lot?
They don't even throw at him. They've allowed show Hey
(22:25):
to have his run of the league. Ain't nobody making
him hit the deck? Come on, man, and the one
time he gets hit, it's the end of the world. Well,
if they did it, just own.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
It, just own it. What I mean, wait a minute,
I like, sassy Rob, this is funny doing again. Well,
if they do ad him, just own it. This is
what was that. This is one of your sisters. When
they were cussing you out.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
O the day that I'm like, what what you get
my point? Does he get thrown out a lot?
Speaker 9 (22:58):
No?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
He does not, for I was produced and put up
the numbers? Are you kidding? To be fair? And to
your point, for how scary of a hitter he is
and what he's been for you know, six seven, eight
years now, you would think he'd be pitched that like
that more often. And considering just the Dodgers as a whole,
like they're always good, they're always successful, They've won a
(23:19):
couple of rings down the last four or five years,
you would think some of these things would happen more often.
But I'll tell you what. We just talked about this
with Caitlyn Clark. This is what you want in baseball
in the sense of you want some rivalries, but specifically
we're talking about the Padres and Dodgers. Right, there's a rivalry.
What out of doubt you could argue this currently is
the best rivalry in baseball.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
That added what happened and last year with the world
with the getting to the World Series, you.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Thought the Padres had it. Finally we're gonna get past
these guys. Boom, they don't. Dodgers come back. You remember
you had Maddy Machatdo throw a ball at the Dodger
dug out and oh what you mean, I didn't do that,
and all types of stuff. You got Manny Machatdo former
Dodger for a minute. I mean, there's just some there's
some bad blood there, which is a good thing. They're
in the same division, and they've met three out of
(24:04):
the last five times in the postseason. If you look
at the last twenty three games that they've played each other,
the Dodgers have won twelve, the Padres have won eleven.
That's how close it's been. It's like twenty seven home
runs in twenty six. So it's a good rivalry and
I think it just gets chippy. But when it comes
to the whole, you know, this guy hit they hit
our guy the night before because Eddie Pias felt like
he was intentionally hit. We got to hit our guy
(24:26):
their guy, then they got to hit ours back. I
whitch right in the cheeks. You know that's where they
hit them, right, you know, you wwitch right in the cheeks.
You want thigh meter cheeks. When you know I'm not
trying to hit the guy in the face or anything.
You want to just let him know, back him up
a little bit, hit him and tune them up a
little bit. But I will say this is also me
asking you rob as you've been covering the league since
(24:47):
nineteen eighty six. You got that one right now eighty
six base pay attention in eighty six Basketball eighty seven.
That's a part of the game. We know that, just
like you mentioned Dave Robbers running out kicking it dust
in front of umpire's feet. All that certain things is
just a part of the game. And he's out there
to try to protect his play. Yeah, I mean, as
he does. But something but him the umpire had a moment.
(25:08):
I don't know because he was specifically trying to go
after the one. The other arm was trying keep him
out of me. Like, hey man, just just you know,
go be cool? Is our way though that because I
look at it. I brought it up earlier. I was
listening to Bill Simmons had a pod the other night
after Game five, and he had Duck Rivers on U
Doc Duck Rivers almost with Bill Simmons, and he brought
up a point. He said, Man, I have to admit this,
and I know my old heads are gonna be mad
(25:28):
at me. He said, we did get a little crazy
in the NBA in the late eighties and nineties as
far as like beating each other up. He said, it
hurt the style of play and the games got ugly.
Do you think the pitching or hitting pitchers, I mean
hitting batters and all of that, And just as part
of the game cannot ever evolve, does that have to
be in the game.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's not the same. You want to allow the players
to police the game. Somebody does something to your player,
like right, like hit your star player in the back
or whatever, then you pitcher who goes out there, he
has an option to say, you can't do that to
our guy.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Yeah, because I feel like team is looking if they
think so. But it doesn't always happen. No, it doesn't
because there are guys who won't do it, and then
they'll be their team. And that's what I mean. Were you.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I don't think that there's always like a like, without question,
you have to do it. But there were those moments
and but the players should police that. And in the
old days, in the sixties or whatever, when Don Drysdale
and Bob Gibson, those guys pitch, you better not hit
a home run and show boat, you know, because the
(26:45):
next guy out is gonna get drilled. Like that's what
they used to do back then. You would get drilled.
I didn't even do anything. The other guy'll run the
next time, and and and the next guy gets drilled
in the back.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
And that's what they used to do. So that's what
made me ask, like I'm wondering if there's a point
where it gainst legs not fully out of the game,
but you know something, they come down harder on it,
or they want to make some rules against it, because
like I was saying, if there's an evolution of the game,
like I said, in the NBA in the eighties, you
you legitimately could close line a player and that'd be
a regular file, not a flagrant two not kicked out
(27:19):
the files. Why don't you guys relax a little bit.
Then they got to the point, all right, you can't
do that, and then they legislate the game. And I
think they went too far in the NBA where anything
was a flagrant. We got to sit at the monitor
for twenty five minutes, which is ridiculous. One or two,
I agree with you, all right, they're gone too far.
So I was just wondering watching that, Like, is there
a point where baseball says, maybe we might want to
legislate that out the game a little bit, or find
(27:39):
a way to get that out of the game.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
It just doesn't happen that often to me, Like, I
don't think so. Like I just brought up the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Show.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Hey, he's been hit twenty four times in eighty Ileess,
he might get slowed down, you know what I mean. Yeah,
but guys used to get hit.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
And I'll say this, I'm not against pitching clothes pitching
in I'm against head hunting. When you're throwing a baseball
one hundred miles an hour, somebody's even with a helmet
on that up here no good anywhere else.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
If I hit the cheek or the you know, the leg,
the thigh, that that's fair game.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
That's fair game to make somebody uncomfortable a little bit
in the box so that they don't dig in and
feel like they could just tee off on me.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
You do wonder why they don't do that more to
show and share judge and some of these guys who
are just prolific hitters, You think why they don't, Hey, Hey, hey,
back you up a little bit. I mean only that
I wonder if some of these pitchers don't feel that,
you know, they have control enough. You know, I don't
want to hit a guy and get them on base,
you know, show him.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I just think people are different now because of the
money that's involved. You know, it's just a lot different changes.
That money is a part of it, and then they're
not the real rivalry. When I started covering baseball for real,
a player from another team could never come into.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
The club out.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
They would fight you, like, you can't come in here.
I don't you could be boys with somebody in that clubhouse,
see you at dinner, they come right, you better meet
him out at dinner or meet him somewhere else. But
he's not coming in here. And they would almost fight
if somebody even tried to come in. So that's where
it was at that time. And it's not like that anymore.
(29:18):
You know that everybody taking their jerseys off and swapping
and all this kind of like just like what you
just so just saw us a big game and and
you dapping up the other team and here's my jersey
and let's get a picture together, Like it's just weird.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
I just think it's so hard with money, like to
act like it's the end of the world when I
just made ten million the world. But it's a competitive thing.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I'm with you, and you know this, this has been
like like people think, and I think that that's part
of it, Like Lebron's friendship of.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
The Banana Boa crew No no, no.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Tremont Oh yeah, to soften him, do you know what
I mean, Like like to soften him. You're that's my boy,
you know what I mean. And and that was part
of to try to get to team like that, like
I dressed.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
He looks at the picture of the Banana boat in
which is he was on it because Jerymond went from
arch enemy, you know, rival, to he's his biggest defender.
That's what I'm saying. I'm like, dang Draymond. All Right,
we got one's gotta go. Speaking of uh Lebron and
talking about the Lakers, We're gonna do the greatest Lakers

to get you upset. And in honor of the Los
Angeles Lakers being sold today for ten billion, we're doing
One's Gotta Go, the greatest Lakers of the Jerry bus era,
(32:00):
which means Lebron James is not included.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Rob, this is not gonna be. Here's easy, too easy.
This is too easy now even in the Jerry Bust,
he ain't even said the name. We got five names.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
One of them's gotta go, and all of their contributions
to the Lakers, Magic Johnson, Kareem abdul Jabbar, Jerry West,
Shaquille O'Neill, Kobe Bryant.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
Damn, this is easy. Je's give me a night one day.
We gotta do a Yankee edition. And dude, just like
the hardest ye like, we're.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Only picking MLB Broke, Reggie Jackson, Winfield.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Will you a pick? Because we know Aaron Judge ain't
going nowhere. Reggie Jackson wouldn't go anywhere. Strauber ain't going nowhere.
Look at him. Derek Jeter ain't going nowhere. I would
consider Strawberry mess. That's what I was, even though he
did win two worlds. So you want to name your
kids straw I did.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
I still might. I'm still might. That was what I
was going to name my kid.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
I thought you said you might like you about to
go back and change some twenty year old name. No,
you've got a twenty year old son out here in
these streets. Rock. I'm just saying he's not sure, Junior,
I might want to have a baby. Now I'm thinking
you ain't never get a call Rob. Hey, how you doing?
It's me Cinnamon. But it wasn't But it wasn't about
a baby. I just wanted to say, Cinnamon. Yeah, remember
(33:33):
from Magic City about six years ago, Cinnamon, mister Magic
gave me your number. That's when they tell you. It's
a little Rod Parker, the third out here. No, we
got to name him Straw. Let's change his name cennam
in the Straw were just six years behind on child support.
All right, well, Umber, am I going first month? First? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
You said it's Jerry West? Please wow stop okay, Jerry West.
How's that he played when the ball had LASiS?
Speaker 3 (34:00):
What? Why?
Speaker 5 (34:02):
Why?
Speaker 1 (34:02):
I am.
Speaker 9 (34:04):
Wait?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Why? But remember the contributions though he was the GM
that got you some of the players on this.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Jerry West went to like the NBA finals like eleven
times and only one one.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
So you give it to Jerry West. Jerry existed. You
got three people, Jerry. Jerry West told you was easy.
Manto Damn, damn.
Speaker 10 (34:23):
I think this is really hard, and I really think
that there's no right answer. I'm gonna have to say Shack.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
Shack went on and one with the heat. He had
a history with.
Speaker 10 (34:36):
Orlando, and so I'm gonna say shaquil o'oneo. I'm not
proud of my answer, but I don't know, general don't
It's not that I don't like I just I guess
he is the least Laker I think of in that list.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
You can't say, manto, you just don't like people mumble
on Televisson, that's not it.
Speaker 10 (35:01):
I love Shy even though I think, you know, stop
doing those commercials that normal actress can do. You know
what I'm saying, you're stealing work from others.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
But aside from that, whatever to talk to you brought to
you who you got.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
Oh, this one's easy for me, Rob and it's because
if we got rid of him, we'd actually be doing
a service to the rest of America.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Oh, we gotta cut Magic Johnson.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Wow gas Tweets that he puts out that are so
painfully obvious.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Stop.
Speaker 4 (35:26):
You know, he's the reason that the Lakers were in
a dark time for so many Yearsble he was such.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
A bad GM I thought he was a better head cop.
It's amazing. Magic Johnson could run for mayor tomorrow and
would win in a landslide. But they can't get it.
And then and then he wouldn't show up for the
first day. Get somebody else to do it. I ain't
gonna be here. That's one of the greatest gifts. I
ain't here. That's great, Alex.
Speaker 5 (35:49):
You went on us, Magic Johnson. No, so what did
he tell us about Lonzo Ball? Where was his name?
Speaker 3 (35:56):
That it be?
Speaker 5 (35:57):
Also failed on the Lakers when it took a job magic?
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Okay? Interesting?
Speaker 5 (36:03):
Now hold on five.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Championships, y'all acting like okay, Yes, so he did say
he wasn't gonna be here, but he got you five championships.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
What have you done for me lately?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Don't take the last time Magic? Did you dribble with
his left hand? When was that? Never?
Speaker 2 (36:17):
So?
Speaker 5 (36:17):
Also, the only reason why he's so famous is just
because he beat a disease. Awesome, great job, budd A
lot of people do. You don't need to be a
mascot for it.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Alex is not gonna make it five years. You're not
gonna make it. What you're not gonna make it? What?
What is today? Are you gonna make it to Monday?
Alex has a list of people would be the HIV.
He's got a whole list of them.
Speaker 5 (36:36):
I do you want me to name him off?
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Okay, I'm gonna just well, Magic is definitely staying. Let's
just say that how much time I got. Kobe and
Magic are the untouchables. This one was hard for me
as well. But I think the answer is Koreem, whoa.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
One of the greatest basketball player of the vault, right
because he has a Muslim.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
Name, right all of a sudden. The only reason why
I said that because Jerry West leads to if we're
going by there, what they I get the shack and
Kobe run because of him. I get Kobe stopping list
if I'm going by that, you know what.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Kareem offered him a bean pie once and now cream
is actually my guy's never been.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
How could you do that to cat?
Speaker 4 (37:28):
I got a wild Kareem store I share with you
off the air. It'll blow your rob.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
That my audience, I mean, everybody's gonna want to know.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
Just keep your mind. That's the same guy whoaid he
didn't want Akon and then changed his mind in the break.
Speaker 3 (37:38):
I think I'm changing my mind to Rob.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
One's got to go. Let's take Kelvin out of the segment.
How about that.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
Yes, I'll take They'll take my segment, Alex. It might
have to be the logo I might change now. He's flow,
He's a flip flop. I can't do Kaream. I can't.
I can't do. He's still for the people to Jerry
Wes my bad Jerry

I think that Robber for once, just once, Alex rob
might not say this is too easy. It's too easy,
just for one. We had to amend it, literally had
to amend it for you.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
What did I say didn't I say that when you
first talked about it, of course you're out of my mouth.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Was that we already changed it? Yeah? Did you really
change it? I mean it's the same concept. But the
little bit we had the minute we're talking Rob Gen,
he said, Oh, I think that's a hold up. You know,
he's good. That's too easy, And to be honest, it's
too easy for all of us. I think I think
everyone listening now I had an answer that would surprise
you really really. Oh was it? Was it the radio?
(01:46):
It was thunder? And for yes, it was there that
kind of that even if thunder was like huh, who
is this?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Rob G and sgs like that even I don't believe us.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Was like, I know, I know he ain't talking about us, right,
talking about four percent had to rain or thunder actually
happened to real thunder. But yeah, so looking forward to
that too, rob We got to house some fun with that.
One's got to go a little.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Bit like all right, Rob G, can you clue us in,
not set the table, but just tell us what's going
in on? Caitlin Clark and she got mugged, I guess
in the game the other day last night.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Right, I've decided that the verbiage on one out, I'll say,
what is it?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
I'll see you up. I'll be a caddy. So it's
the same thing. What's the difference. Okay, the caddy was bad.
Caddy get paid.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
So what if if you set the table, you're not
getting paid, not as much as a caddy is.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
This might be a city course, though you might not
be getting too much. It's local, private paying people in
LA thirty dollars for fast food. Now that's not your point.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
I did see an in and out They say, come
work for us twenty seven dollars an hour.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
So do you know how much in and out managers make? Yeah,
they make like a buck fifty bucks, seventy five or
one hundred thousand. Make sure people understand i'maying one hundred
and seventy five thousand a year or something like that.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
But I'm not joking when I say it. If radio
falls apart, I want to work at Costco.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
No, you've said that several times. We believe you seen
what they make.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
But here's the thing that that I think, and I'm
not more power to him. Let no, no, no, I'm talking
about when they originally did fast food restaurants. It was
supposed to be for kids in high school. Okay, yeah,
that was the everybody worked, you know, you worked. It
was a part time job, job, fun job that you
(03:24):
rob g right or wrong.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
And then all of a sudden they couldn't rely.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
The kids didn't want to work whatever, and then adults,
grown ups made it like their careers. And this is
what was the imbalance, because that wasn't really when I
was a kid.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Only kids fourteen years old, right, yeah, my favorite job,
that was it? Man, you can eat all the fries.
That was well, we used to. We knew how to
cherry pick the nuggets, like which one was the good one.
We know how an eyeball and that's now I'm gonna
throw up in my mouth because he was his hands
all over. No, no, no, no, no, no, not. We
just we knew when we were making my own little
twenty pack or whatever it was, dude, we used to
(03:59):
it was we would make our own breakfast sandwiches. Oh yeah,
double sausage egg, put a hash brown and oh yeah,
what a great job. To your point, when you're fifteen,
I was working with my benefits. Shout out to vic.
But if you're married and got two kids. That's a
tough job to have. Stressful, that's all you're gonna You're
gonna get some good pay, but you struggle. Dub to
your point.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
My brother is one of his best friends, swears to
this day that he invented the buffalo uh blue cheese
on buffalo wings when he worked at Dominoes because they
would do the same thing. They'd have the food and
be able to make whatever they would want. They oh,
someone canceled an order. Okay, like we're keeping it.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Man.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
We used to have so much fun. We would throw
frozen sausage patties, everybody having Oh my gosh, you shout out, man,
we had so we shot to mona hand, no wonder mine,
no sauceress. Patty had hair like, man, why does a
little crunchy? This my bad? It was on the floor.
Y'all deserved that twenty hours. That was back in the
Mick Archer era. Roger, you remember that I do the
Mick Archer Do you remember that? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I do the making up burgers Like I was like
cold on one side, hot on the other, and then
you would put it together. That was a but the lettuce,
the tomato would be on one side and then the
hot hamburger on the other side, and.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
It had Canadian bacon. Right.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Well, not a game changer when you think about it. Nowadays,
everything the same. Everyone's got tenders, you.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Know what they call a Canadian bacon and Canada bacon
American bacon.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
All right.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Got back to the storico of what was that Tuesday night?
It might have been the lead of the show. Did
we have the Laker news? Kaylen Clark? She was at
it again. Her team beat the Connecticut Son eighty seventy
one in a game that we watched during this show. However,
because you know Rob never misses a WNBA game.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Wrating is that right now?
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Yeah, we didn't get to really spend too much time
during the show talking about it. But if you were watching,
there were multiple skirmishes throughout this game, and one of
them involved Kaitlin Clark. As you guys mentioned during the
play in question, Kayln Clark got raked across the eye,
looked like it got poked, might have got scratched, but
(06:01):
it was.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Just to not to face.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
She gets upset, kind of pushes the defender off of her,
and in a split second, a different player runs up
and hip checks her right there in the in the
side of the rib cage. She goes flying to the floor.
People start arguing, look like it's gonna be a big
brewe a. They separate everything, interestingly enough, no ejections, no
flagman fouls, and Kaylyn Clark herself was assess the technical
(06:28):
but because it was Kaitlyn Clark, she is the golden goose,
it became a big talking point once again. Hey, what's
up with these WNBA women trying to hurt Kaitlyn Clark.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Stop babying her. Stop babying her. She's absolutely going to
get filed. She's gonna get filed hard at times. This
is part of the game. Who's the greatest player ever
to touch a basketball? Michael Jordan? You know what Michael
Jordan got did first a couple of years, two three years,
They got beat up. People will stop flying the air.
You're not about to embarrass me dunking on people doing
(07:02):
all this. Put your tongue back in your mouth, all
of that. This is part of the course a little bit.
And yes, she's getting fould hard, and yes, this is
a part of the game. And you know what the
best part about this is, you know who isn't complaining.
Caitlyn Clark. You know who isn't making a big brew
out of this. Caitlyn Clark. She gets into it. She
gets chippy by the way. She gets in the middle
(07:23):
of some of this. She ins to Gates, she talks smack,
she'll bump somebody. So she is a part of this
as well. And she knows this is part of the game.
And she also knows I'm a superstar, I'm young, I'm
the face of the league. And a lot of people
don't like it comes with the territory. It is what
it is. I'm very popular. I love this opportunity to
get to play the game I love. And she's alright
with it more than everybody else. She is the one
(07:44):
who doesn't make a big deal of it. So to me,
I think we make a big deal of something that
we ask for. What do we say we want? We
want passionate, we want people to care. We want tenacity,
we want toughness, we want rivalries. We want that in
our sports. Oh wait, they're getting tough. They're being rivalries.
They're pushing each other. Do you want to know you
don't want it? We say we want it, we want aggressive,
(08:04):
We want people to we have the games to matter,
and then when they do, they're chippy, they're putting it,
you know, they're they're fighting for it. Then we have
issues with it. So to me, we're making a big
thing out of nothing. Every time she gets touched up,
it's a thing. And I think that's what also adds
to the frustration of the w NBA players. My guys,
when we follow her, we can't do it today, we chip,
we get a little chippy with her. It's a big thing.
And I think that adds to why they get their
(08:26):
extra little push for them, you know, money for the push,
push for the money, I should say. So, I don't
think it's a big deal. I don't even think she
thinks it's a big deal because they after the game,
she goes, are we gonna talk basketball or what y'all
call me up here to talk some hoops? What are
we talking about? All these technical files and all that about?
So to me, stopbabing her. It's She's a part of it.
She's an adjutant at times, she frustrates people at times
(08:48):
as part of the game. And to me, I thought
we wanted that. I thought we wanted people who cared
and passionate anymore. Rob, I don't see a big deal
about this, as like we're making it a big deal
when even the person involved doesn't think it's a big deal.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Yeah, I just think, uh, she's jumped to shark. The
whole Caitlyn Clark thing is now like bigger than life,
and every little thing is Look, oh they hate her,
they're jealous. Even in basketball plays can get she can
be fouled hard.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
It's everything. It's okay, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
If they're pulling her hair and eye galluging her and
you know and all that, then maybe I'm like, Okay,
something's going on here.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
But you can't even be like just pulling hair and
I got it's just O w w E, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Like, but the idea that if they do anything was
physical to her, it's it's like Dave Roberts having a
stomach ache because because show hey got hit Oh my god,
all the end of the world, showy old tiny got
hit by a ball.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
What are they doing? Like this is the people get
hit by a ball.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
They okay, you're you're a swinging that, Well, I'm a
I'm gonna pitch you in I might hit you. Let
you know, the back up a little bit. Don't get
too comfortable in the box. Same thing with her. Come on, man,
it's just ridiculous everything Caitlyn Clarke. This, we get it.
She's the cash cown. But we can't say are we
gonna stop playing basketball? Why don't you just suspend anybody
(10:18):
who breathes on her? I mean, it's it's it's a joke.
It really is getting to that.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I'm with you, and I keep bringing up anytime it's
brought up. She's the one like, hey, it's part of
the game. It is what it is. Right now, I'm
just happy we're playing well and my shots fall like
she moves on like it's she knows it's part of
the game. You know who was the cash cow the
NBA in the eighties, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. You
know it was getting the head taken off Larry Bird
(10:43):
and Magic Johnson. So to me, things happen. I'm not
saying she gotta getting clothes line all the time, but
what I'm saying is a hard following. If you looked
at it, the original defender was reaching for the ball
just happened to hit her face and then the other
girl and then Caitlyn kind of gets to her chest like, hey,
don't be hit me in the face. And then the
other girl, of course, defends her teammate. So to me,
we can't do this, you can't clamor and cry for
(11:03):
we want this. We want tough, we want passion, we
want that, we want to feel like you really want it.
And then when I really want it and things it
chippy And what have we been happy about this postseason?
In the NBA, they're letting them play again. The passion
is there again. Guys are competing again. Look at guys.
It's getting a little tough and little chippy out there again.
We like that, we want that, and we're getting that
(11:25):
into w NBA. It just happens to me. She's a star,
and stars get beat up, stars get iced out of games,
stars get filed, stars get pitched in close. Stuff happens, right.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I just don't like, I get it, you don't want to,
you don't want you don't want you don't want her
injured or something that's like out of bounds and I
get that, But but a hard foul basketball, like it's
the end of the world, Like, don't make it like that,
because then the players really will resent her, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
What I mean.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
And that's what I say, and this, yeah, you don't
want to do that. Let her be like everybody else.
You got knocked down, other players getting knocked down every night.
I'm sure all the players are looking going, dude, are
you kidding? That happened to me four times last night.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Nothing happened when Steph Curry started to become Steph Curry
in the NBA. Steph Curry was getting some hard files
because people were like, all right, you ain't about to
be doing all that shimmy shimmy, shooting threes, biting your
little mouthpiece. He was getting hard files. He was running
off the screens. People were giving a little extra little chip,
a little extra little bump, you know what I mean.
When you're when you're doing something unique and different and
(12:29):
in your game has a tendency to embarrass people. People
ain't trying to be embarrassed. They're gonna let you know,
I'm gonna touch you up a little bit. And that's
part of the game. And it always has been part
of the game. And she knows that. And I give
her credit to me for not making a big deal
not Why Why is it always me? Why is everybody
picking up me? She's she's tough, she's out there, she's
talking smack and she's flexing when she's busting threes and
(12:50):
they're forty feet out and she's she's enjoying the game.
And I like that about her that even when it
went college it was issues and what was going on. Andrew,
She's like, man, it's part the game. Y'all keep making
a big deal. It reminds me of Larry Bird when
out that stuff, and when Dennis Robin was like, oh
Larry Bird was black, he'd be just another guy whatever.
And Isaiah Thomas kind of echoed the door, and Larry
Burr said, man, y'all the ones making this a big deal,
(13:12):
I'm over it. Fro you know, I accept their apology.
Let's move on. She's like, can we just talk hoops?
And I like that about her, no doubt, all right?

ninety nine on Fox who we got all right, se
On in Sacramento.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio and our
phones are working again.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Yeah, I said that we're back.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yeo, I'll go rub a dozen. Mother cousin killed me
and my brother's behind the board. Man, it's been a minute.
Man had to have to have to skip my daughter's
swim practice of to day and make sure I got my
call in time.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Real, don't get in trouble later.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
True father of the Year material. You heard me, Katy,
but real quick man. Look, man, the drama is the
best thing that could happen for Caitlyn Clark. They got
guys like that Gottlie clutching his pearls, given terrible takes
about how women can't even bring their daughters for the
game anymore because of the violence. Are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Any way? He said that.
Speaker 6 (15:52):
He said that, Hey, worst take I've heard so far
from anybody in the national media. Women love drama.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Meanwhile, meanwhile, they're taking their daughters to hockey games where
people getting punching teeth fall out.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
Okay, exactly, bro, Hey, honestly, it's the way life is.
Just because you're cute, just because you're popular, just because
everybody loves you and you're the favorites of WNBA, don't
mean that you're immune to these hands.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Man.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
They gonna try to take you.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Out, just like they did Jordan with the Jordan rules
back in the day, and it just made him bigger.
The w NBA should be thanking they're lucky stars because
those ratings were in the pooper without her.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Yeah, you're trying to tell you all about that, Andre
in Massachusetts.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Drake? Hey?
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Yeah, Hey, how you doing. Thanks for taking a call.
Speaker 9 (16:43):
Listen.
Speaker 8 (16:43):
I'm a similar mind of Sewing from Sacramento in that
no news is bad news, and if it has to
start with the drama, I think that does bring people
in because they are fascinated by all of the underlying storylines,
you know, around race, culture, all of those things that
project themselves on the Kate Caitlin Clark. That's when people
might first kind of tune in, But then they will
(17:05):
get a chance to see what's going on with the
w NBA and create Kaitlin Clark being an outstanding basketball player.
So bottom line is, I think it's going to continue.
I don't think it's going to stop that Caitlin Clark
is going to be the face of the w NBA
for good, you know, whether people like it or not,
because of who she is and how she's playing. And
then it's always going to the conversation is always going
to move into these other secondary topics about you know,
(17:26):
whether she's getting undue privileged, so on and force. But
hopefully my point is, I hope we can bring it
back to her just being an outstanding basketball player and
being good for the game, and you know that can
be what we conclude by I don't see stopping and
I don't have a problem.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Well, I just think there's a chance you could fatigue
people rob when it's oh my gosh, another Okay, Wow,
she's filed big deal twenty two day conversations and thesis.
If it's something.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
That's really out of the ordinary, the okay, you had
to talk about it.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
But every time she ever, And that's where I think
to different with Andre. I think people can get tired
of that and not want to tune in period. My guy,
I don't want to hear that now regular filed again, right,
Brian in Tennessee, Tennessee. You're in the odd couple of
fives Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee.
Speaker 9 (18:11):
That's right. I am wearing shoes right now.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
There you go. And do you have on a shirt
when you're going to the restaurant. I'm just sighing.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
I got a shirt on right now. I'm driving a truck.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Oh, gor shoes.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
I started wearing shoes about ten years ago.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Look at your growing up out here.
Speaker 9 (18:27):
Brian's yes, Hey, listen, rubberneck. And you know when you
you you're behind your way back in the line, and
you're you know, the in your car and these freaking
beaver going so slow because they're looking for blood. Many
people just like to see blood, And I'm going to
tell you they like to see blood, right, on the
hockey rink. That's the only reason I would watch. I
(18:48):
have never watched the w NBA game because it's boring
until Caitlyn came along. Let the controversy keep it up,
because that's the that's what's drawing people. I like to
see them having these kinds of come I don't want
to decide. That's that's what draws me to the news.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
No, I got it.
Speaker 9 (19:04):
Why I watched the game.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I think, to me, I like rivalry. It doesn't have
to be just any other thing is drum like. I
like that. That's my whole point was that we want
the tension, we want the right, the passion, we want
them to care. But to then I think it's more
so not what's happening in the game. It's the discussion afterwards,
like oh my god, they hate her. Oh why they're
(19:27):
hurting their cash? How are they? That's more's more tiresome
than the file. The file is part of the game.
Leo in New York City, you're on the couple of
Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Leo?
Speaker 7 (19:37):
Well, guys, I agree with everybody. I'm almost I should
have said sentiment. Hey, if I'm a descender, I'm not
gonna come here and let her dream like a logo
three in my face and show boat and talk the
chunks because she's does all that, so you're gonna rock
her up a little bit because that's the only advantage
that you have. Right But this but this morning, I
(19:58):
was listening to the facility and my point made the
point that gave me a little puzzled. So guys, hear this.
We saw, however rating tanks when she was away, right,
she was injured. Now if we let the league rush
her up and she gets injured the game and then
Louise were rating and then lose your attendant, how is
(20:20):
that reflecting unrelief? You see what I'm saying. So, I mean,
I'm agreeing behave let them play, but you also have
to like look at the fact that when she's not
on the game. Hey, Rob, you carried the flag talking
about however rating plummeted.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
I told you, Leo, I said it way before that.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I told her, and that one game Rob g brought up.
I said it was the Fever were playing. And remember
I said, they just didn't know she wasn't playing in
that game, and they want that game.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
I guess, I guess we'll let me too. Oh she
ain't playing playing now accounting that that's right, and you
turn to it. No, Leo, thank you man, appreciate the colleague.
I hear Leo's point of the eye. You don't want
to hurt her, lose her. But I still think File
was a part of the game. A star trying to
stop her part, a star player who's dropping thirty at night.
We gotta find a way to stop her, and she's
gonna get triple team hard File. That's just gonna be it.
(21:11):
Even if her name was Caitlyn Jordan like that would
absolutely happen for sure. All Right, we got one's gotta
go coming up in a little bit. Plus we got
to talk about you mentioned it earlier. Dave Roberts had
a fit about something, and then we got to see
where we are on if we agree with Dave Roberts
or now right now, Monzi Blinios is gonna get you
set on what's trending, Moncey.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
The couple. Robin Kelvin on a worship Wednesday, and Rob,
you brought it up earlier. That's right, Hallelujah, praised the Lord.
You took some shots at Dave Roberts. Was he was
wilding out a little wow going at the umps, getting
kicked out of games because shoe Hey caught a pitch
right in the cheeks. He got bye.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Well, if you're gonna throw at him, just own it,
like I just know what was that? Like? The Padres
had to go yeah, yeah, we do at him, like
we mean, just own it, saying what the chest, rob
g you did the math? We did the math earlier.
He's been in the league for eight years, been hit
twenty four times? Really has he been hit a lot?
They don't even throw at him. They've allowed show Hey
(22:25):
to have his run of the league. Ain't nobody making
him hit the deck? Come on, man, and the one
time he gets hit, it's the end of the world. Well,
if they did it, just own.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
It, just own it. What I mean, wait a minute,
I like, sassy Rob, this is funny doing again. Well,
if they do ad him, just own it. This is
what was that. This is one of your sisters. When
they were cussing you out.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
O the day that I'm like, what what you get
my point? Does he get thrown out a lot?
Speaker 9 (22:58):
No?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
He does not, for I was produced and put up
the numbers? Are you kidding? To be fair? And to
your point, for how scary of a hitter he is
and what he's been for you know, six seven, eight
years now, you would think he'd be pitched that like
that more often. And considering just the Dodgers as a whole,
like they're always good, they're always successful, They've won a
(23:19):
couple of rings down the last four or five years,
you would think some of these things would happen more often.
But I'll tell you what. We just talked about this
with Caitlyn Clark. This is what you want in baseball
in the sense of you want some rivalries, but specifically
we're talking about the Padres and Dodgers. Right, there's a rivalry.
What out of doubt you could argue this currently is
the best rivalry in baseball.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
That added what happened and last year with the world
with the getting to the World Series, you.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Thought the Padres had it. Finally we're gonna get past
these guys. Boom, they don't. Dodgers come back. You remember
you had Maddy Machatdo throw a ball at the Dodger
dug out and oh what you mean, I didn't do that,
and all types of stuff. You got Manny Machatdo former
Dodger for a minute. I mean, there's just some there's
some bad blood there, which is a good thing. They're
in the same division, and they've met three out of
(24:04):
the last five times in the postseason. If you look
at the last twenty three games that they've played each other,
the Dodgers have won twelve, the Padres have won eleven.
That's how close it's been. It's like twenty seven home
runs in twenty six. So it's a good rivalry and
I think it just gets chippy. But when it comes
to the whole, you know, this guy hit they hit
our guy the night before because Eddie Pias felt like
he was intentionally hit. We got to hit our guy
(24:26):
their guy, then they got to hit ours back. I
whitch right in the cheeks. You know that's where they
hit them, right, you know, you wwitch right in the cheeks.
You want thigh meter cheeks. When you know I'm not
trying to hit the guy in the face or anything.
You want to just let him know, back him up
a little bit, hit him and tune them up a
little bit. But I will say this is also me
asking you rob as you've been covering the league since
(24:47):
nineteen eighty six. You got that one right now eighty
six base pay attention in eighty six Basketball eighty seven.
That's a part of the game. We know that, just
like you mentioned Dave Robbers running out kicking it dust
in front of umpire's feet. All that certain things is
just a part of the game. And he's out there
to try to protect his play. Yeah, I mean, as
he does. But something but him the umpire had a moment.
(25:08):
I don't know because he was specifically trying to go
after the one. The other arm was trying keep him
out of me. Like, hey man, just just you know,
go be cool? Is our way though that because I
look at it. I brought it up earlier. I was
listening to Bill Simmons had a pod the other night
after Game five, and he had Duck Rivers on U
Doc Duck Rivers almost with Bill Simmons, and he brought
up a point. He said, Man, I have to admit this,
and I know my old heads are gonna be mad
(25:28):
at me. He said, we did get a little crazy
in the NBA in the late eighties and nineties as
far as like beating each other up. He said, it
hurt the style of play and the games got ugly.
Do you think the pitching or hitting pitchers, I mean
hitting batters and all of that, And just as part
of the game cannot ever evolve, does that have to
be in the game.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's not the same. You want to allow the players
to police the game. Somebody does something to your player,
like right, like hit your star player in the back
or whatever, then you pitcher who goes out there, he
has an option to say, you can't do that to
our guy.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Yeah, because I feel like team is looking if they
think so. But it doesn't always happen. No, it doesn't
because there are guys who won't do it, and then
they'll be their team. And that's what I mean. Were you.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I don't think that there's always like a like, without question,
you have to do it. But there were those moments
and but the players should police that. And in the
old days, in the sixties or whatever, when Don Drysdale
and Bob Gibson, those guys pitch, you better not hit
a home run and show boat, you know, because the
(26:45):
next guy out is gonna get drilled. Like that's what
they used to do back then. You would get drilled.
I didn't even do anything. The other guy'll run the
next time, and and and the next guy gets drilled
in the back.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
And that's what they used to do. So that's what
made me ask, like I'm wondering if there's a point
where it gainst legs not fully out of the game,
but you know something, they come down harder on it,
or they want to make some rules against it, because
like I was saying, if there's an evolution of the game,
like I said, in the NBA in the eighties, you
you legitimately could close line a player and that'd be
a regular file, not a flagrant two not kicked out
(27:19):
the files. Why don't you guys relax a little bit.
Then they got to the point, all right, you can't
do that, and then they legislate the game. And I
think they went too far in the NBA where anything
was a flagrant. We got to sit at the monitor
for twenty five minutes, which is ridiculous. One or two,
I agree with you, all right, they're gone too far.
So I was just wondering watching that, Like, is there
a point where baseball says, maybe we might want to
legislate that out the game a little bit, or find
(27:39):
a way to get that out of the game.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
It just doesn't happen that often to me, Like, I
don't think so. Like I just brought up the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Show.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Hey, he's been hit twenty four times in eighty Ileess,
he might get slowed down, you know what I mean. Yeah,
but guys used to get hit.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
And I'll say this, I'm not against pitching clothes pitching
in I'm against head hunting. When you're throwing a baseball
one hundred miles an hour, somebody's even with a helmet
on that up here no good anywhere else.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
If I hit the cheek or the you know, the leg,
the thigh, that that's fair game.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
That's fair game to make somebody uncomfortable a little bit
in the box so that they don't dig in and
feel like they could just tee off on me.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
You do wonder why they don't do that more to
show and share judge and some of these guys who
are just prolific hitters, You think why they don't, Hey, Hey, hey,
back you up a little bit. I mean only that
I wonder if some of these pitchers don't feel that,
you know, they have control enough. You know, I don't
want to hit a guy and get them on base,
you know, show him.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I just think people are different now because of the
money that's involved. You know, it's just a lot different changes.
That money is a part of it, and then they're
not the real rivalry. When I started covering baseball for real,
a player from another team could never come into.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
The club out.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
They would fight you, like, you can't come in here.
I don't you could be boys with somebody in that clubhouse,
see you at dinner, they come right, you better meet
him out at dinner or meet him somewhere else. But
he's not coming in here. And they would almost fight
if somebody even tried to come in. So that's where
it was at that time. And it's not like that anymore.
(29:18):
You know that everybody taking their jerseys off and swapping
and all this kind of like just like what you
just so just saw us a big game and and
you dapping up the other team and here's my jersey
and let's get a picture together, Like it's just weird.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
I just think it's so hard with money, like to
act like it's the end of the world when I
just made ten million the world. But it's a competitive thing.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I'm with you, and you know this, this has been
like like people think, and I think that that's part
of it, Like Lebron's friendship of.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
The Banana Boa crew No no, no.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Tremont Oh yeah, to soften him, do you know what
I mean, Like like to soften him. You're that's my boy,
you know what I mean. And and that was part
of to try to get to team like that, like
I dressed.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
He looks at the picture of the Banana boat in
which is he was on it because Jerymond went from
arch enemy, you know, rival, to he's his biggest defender.
That's what I'm saying. I'm like, dang Draymond. All Right,
we got one's gotta go. Speaking of uh Lebron and
talking about the Lakers, We're gonna do the greatest Lakers
of the Jerry Buss era. This will be fun. We'll

Speaker 1 (31:29):
That when I'm fun even number figure it out.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
It's right.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
One's Gotta Go, the most controversial segment in all the
sports media where we talk about something that is designed
to get you upset. And in honor of the Los
Angeles Lakers being sold today for ten billion, we're doing
One's Gotta Go, the greatest Lakers of the Jerry bus era,
(32:00):
which means Lebron James is not included.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Rob, this is not gonna be. Here's easy, too easy.
This is too easy now even in the Jerry Bust,
he ain't even said the name. We got five names.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
One of them's gotta go, and all of their contributions
to the Lakers, Magic Johnson, Kareem abdul Jabbar, Jerry West,
Shaquille O'Neill, Kobe Bryant.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
Damn, this is easy. Je's give me a night one day.
We gotta do a Yankee edition. And dude, just like
the hardest ye like, we're.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Only picking MLB Broke, Reggie Jackson, Winfield.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Will you a pick? Because we know Aaron Judge ain't
going nowhere. Reggie Jackson wouldn't go anywhere. Strauber ain't going nowhere.
Look at him. Derek Jeter ain't going nowhere. I would
consider Strawberry mess. That's what I was, even though he
did win two worlds. So you want to name your
kids straw I did.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
I still might. I'm still might. That was what I
was going to name my kid.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
I thought you said you might like you about to
go back and change some twenty year old name. No,
you've got a twenty year old son out here in
these streets. Rock. I'm just saying he's not sure, Junior,
I might want to have a baby. Now I'm thinking
you ain't never get a call Rob. Hey, how you doing?
It's me Cinnamon. But it wasn't But it wasn't about
a baby. I just wanted to say, Cinnamon. Yeah, remember
(33:33):
from Magic City about six years ago, Cinnamon, mister Magic
gave me your number. That's when they tell you. It's
a little Rod Parker, the third out here. No, we
got to name him Straw. Let's change his name cennam
in the Straw were just six years behind on child support.
All right, well, Umber, am I going first month? First? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
You said it's Jerry West? Please wow stop okay, Jerry West.
How's that he played when the ball had LASiS?
Speaker 3 (34:00):
What? Why?
Speaker 5 (34:02):
Why?
Speaker 1 (34:02):
I am.
Speaker 9 (34:04):
Wait?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Why? But remember the contributions though he was the GM
that got you some of the players on this.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Jerry West went to like the NBA finals like eleven
times and only one one.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
So you give it to Jerry West. Jerry existed. You
got three people, Jerry. Jerry West told you was easy.
Manto Damn, damn.
Speaker 10 (34:23):
I think this is really hard, and I really think
that there's no right answer. I'm gonna have to say Shack.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
Shack went on and one with the heat. He had
a history with.
Speaker 10 (34:36):
Orlando, and so I'm gonna say shaquil o'oneo. I'm not
proud of my answer, but I don't know, general don't
It's not that I don't like I just I guess
he is the least Laker I think of in that list.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
You can't say, manto, you just don't like people mumble
on Televisson, that's not it.
Speaker 10 (35:01):
I love Shy even though I think, you know, stop
doing those commercials that normal actress can do. You know
what I'm saying, you're stealing work from others.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
But aside from that, whatever to talk to you brought to
you who you got.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
Oh, this one's easy for me, Rob and it's because
if we got rid of him, we'd actually be doing
a service to the rest of America.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Oh, we gotta cut Magic Johnson.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Wow gas Tweets that he puts out that are so
painfully obvious.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Stop.
Speaker 4 (35:26):
You know, he's the reason that the Lakers were in
a dark time for so many Yearsble he was such.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
A bad GM I thought he was a better head cop.
It's amazing. Magic Johnson could run for mayor tomorrow and
would win in a landslide. But they can't get it.
And then and then he wouldn't show up for the
first day. Get somebody else to do it. I ain't
gonna be here. That's one of the greatest gifts. I
ain't here. That's great, Alex.
Speaker 5 (35:49):
You went on us, Magic Johnson. No, so what did
he tell us about Lonzo Ball? Where was his name?
Speaker 3 (35:56):
That it be?
Speaker 5 (35:57):
Also failed on the Lakers when it took a job magic?
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Okay? Interesting?
Speaker 5 (36:03):
Now hold on five.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Championships, y'all acting like okay, Yes, so he did say
he wasn't gonna be here, but he got you five championships.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
What have you done for me lately?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Don't take the last time Magic? Did you dribble with
his left hand? When was that? Never?
Speaker 2 (36:17):
So?
Speaker 5 (36:17):
Also, the only reason why he's so famous is just
because he beat a disease. Awesome, great job, budd A
lot of people do. You don't need to be a
mascot for it.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Alex is not gonna make it five years. You're not
gonna make it. What you're not gonna make it? What?
What is today? Are you gonna make it to Monday?
Alex has a list of people would be the HIV.
He's got a whole list of them.
Speaker 5 (36:36):
I do you want me to name him off?
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Okay, I'm gonna just well, Magic is definitely staying. Let's
just say that how much time I got. Kobe and
Magic are the untouchables. This one was hard for me
as well. But I think the answer is Koreem, whoa.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
One of the greatest basketball player of the vault, right
because he has a Muslim.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
Name, right all of a sudden. The only reason why
I said that because Jerry West leads to if we're
going by there, what they I get the shack and
Kobe run because of him. I get Kobe stopping list
if I'm going by that, you know what.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Kareem offered him a bean pie once and now cream
is actually my guy's never been.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
How could you do that to cat?
Speaker 4 (37:28):
I got a wild Kareem store I share with you
off the air. It'll blow your rob.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
That my audience, I mean, everybody's gonna want to know.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
Just keep your mind. That's the same guy whoaid he
didn't want Akon and then changed his mind in the break.
Speaker 3 (37:38):
I think I'm changing my mind to Rob.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
One's got to go. Let's take Kelvin out of the segment.
How about that.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
Yes, I'll take They'll take my segment, Alex. It might
have to be the logo I might change now. He's flow,
He's a flip flop. I can't do Kaream. I can't.
I can't do. He's still for the people to Jerry
Wes my bad Jerry
