Gosh, who knew someone laugh would be the greatest part
of And I know that man has two finals MVP

Speaker 3 (05:25):
He ever did was laughing. And everybody everybody wants that.
Like when that first came out, Alex, that was like
automatic about three Twitter days in the history of Twitter.
Everybody was like, oh my god, that is so funny.
My wife people was like, Okay, that is hilarious.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
I can't lie. That is hilarious, hilarious. I don't even

I can't even see you.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I don't know. I can't give you.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
I don't even know where you're sitting at. And that's
what I give you. It all you got to ask,
and then that's.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
What a laugh? What would you like people to know
about you?
Speaker 5 (06:18):
I'm a fun guy, obviously, I love the game of basketball.
I mean, it's just more question you have to ask
me in order for me to tell you about myself.
I just can't give you a whole spill. I don't
even know where you're sitting at.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Where from that fun I don't even know where you're
sitting at? Was not that funny?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Why you know what I mean, Hilaria, you've been hanging
around shocking Charles and all the w that's.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
What made you laugh.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I don't know where you're sitting at. I'm doing that permanently.
Anytime I don't know where somebody sitting at, I'm laughing
like that.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
All right, come on, I'll tell you one guy was
not laughing, and that's a J Brown.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
You know what he is doing, right? He belly aked?
He ain't too happy. Trigger fingers turned to Twitter fingers. Yes,
that's what he's doing.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Boy.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Let me tell you so this era, if I got
beat with you and smoke with you, I ain't gonna
take it to you. I'm taking it to Twitter. I'm
not gonna go talk to the defensive coordinator. I'm gonna
go to I'm going straight to Twitter. Ryan, what is
up with him? And first is all good? I'm reading
peaceable books and understanding piece in my chie inner chie.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Now he's taking to Twitter, that's right.
Speaker 6 (07:32):
Well, yesterday, of course, the Eagles beat the Tampa Bay
Bucks in Tampa Bay. Big game for them.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
They're still they've only won eighteen games in a row, correct,
eighteen games in a hole concluding playoffs in.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Super Bowl eighteen games.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
AJ Brown finished that game with two catches on nine
targets for seven yards. So AJ not satisfied with just
the win, was very unsatisfied with his performance or I
guess the lack of production. And he posted a picture
of a quote, and that quote is, if you're not welcomed,
(08:05):
not listen to quietly withdraw, don't make a scene, shrug
your shoulders and be on your way right.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Basically saying that he wants to be out.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
He he doesn't care about the winning, doesn't care about
the Super Bowl he wants his numbers, and if I'm
the Eagles, I would happily move off from him. Seriously,
because you're winning. He's saying he's not getting the numbers anyway,
So we could replace him with somebody who really wants
(08:37):
to be on a winning team.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
He's a talented player. I'm not saying he's a ball.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
He could go somewhere else, go to a bad team
and get all the numbers you want.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
You can do that. I just think it's selfish when
you're winning.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
If you're struggling and you're not winning and you're not
getting the football and your talent.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
I understand that.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
When you're a team that won eighteen games in a
row and the super Bowl and all these other things,
everybody can't get the ball, everybody can't make a play,
you know, Like, really, isn't it about winning? I think
it's about winning. It's great if you could be in
the mix. There are a lot of guys. I bet
you could. We were watching this. It's on the TV.
(09:15):
We were't watching it, but on TV. A football player's life.
Oh yeah. Calvin Johnson Kelvin Johnson with the Lion, he
played in three playoffs, getting no meaningful games in his career. Seriously, like,
you don't think he would rather play? Okay, got all
the numbers. He went to the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
That's nice.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Nobody remembers him for some important catch or big game,
you know what I mean? Or big game or he
got the thrill of winning a super Bowl or something something,
NFC championship, whatever it was.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
I just I would I would give up some of
that to win. There are a lot of guys who
played for bad teams who pile up numbers. We talk
about the NBL.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Somebody has to score pointless point somebody has to score
like that.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Kevin Martin boy, he averaging like twenty six k on
two and teams ten and seventy two.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Teams, right, because somebody has to score, right that? Those
are the points you want? Where you on it? I
think it's selfish.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
So hey, this is my This is two things with me,
aj Brown. I have zero problems if he wants more passes.
We saw what he can do last week, right, we
thought this might be the change for them. Opening up.
He goes for six catches last week, one hundred and
something yards. You know, and he looks good. You're like
all right, this is this is what the offense is
(10:30):
gonna become. And then all of a sudden, one hundred
and nine yards and a touchdown last week. Other games
he's gone one catch for eight yards, five for twenty seven,
and then last night two for seven.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Right, that's embarrassing for him. I get it.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
He says, I'm one of the top two three four
receivers in the league. I should be averaging eighty ninety
yards of a game, six seven, eight catches, you know,
a touchdown every other game. That's how he feels. So
I don't have a problem with him wanting more. Receivers
have been doing it. What's the position. We called it
the PA diva in NFL receivers, you name the receiver.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
For the most part, they've been doing that.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
My issue is him going so public with the team
that has been so trying to be locked in and
be focused on going to Super Bowls and winning multiple
super Bowls. My issue is with that he's going public
and putting tweets out there because now we got to
talk about the tweet Rob Parker kelvin Washington, which means
the next supporter, Hey Aji saw your tweet at the game.
(11:25):
Now instead of talking about how we can get better
as an offense because it can't have zero passing yard
in the second half, right what nineteen thirty two the
leather helmet team is this? So I agree they need
to get better offensively for where they're trying to go,
if you're trying to get better, and for the end
of the season, postseason, super Bowl, they got to get
better offensively. That's without a doubt. But just make your
(11:46):
public face to think about it all the time. Issue
is having the disustice all the time. You just talked
about it. He had over one hundred yards just a
week before.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Okay, so it's not like they froze him out or
he hadn't got any balls, or we don't know what's talent.
I just don't want anybody on my team who thinks
their numbers is better than winning. You didn't win, oh
you eight of your last ten. You've won eighteen games
in a row. It's working. You're a part of something.
(12:14):
Some days you get numbers, other games you don't get numbers.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
You know, like, it can't be about that. I don't
want that guy.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
If I'm in the front office, thank you, I gotta
move off for you. I really want somebody who wants
to be here, wants to be a part of the team.
There's games. Then you talked about it, Patrick Mahomes. Last
year's numbers weren't great. They kept winning. You gotta keep winning.
It's about winning. That's the only thing that matters. When
(12:42):
you start talking about your personal numbers on a team
that's won eighteen games in a row in the NFL
and you're not satisfied, dude, you're eating dirt. But if
you should be satisfied.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Here's the thing. He got a hundred something million dollars,
got a big deal. He's the man, and I think
that comes with it. He wants to be able to
say we're winning. Now, I'm a part of the winning
because ego pride. You know, I'm having a Pro Bowl
type year and we're also winning. So that's my biggest issue.
Ain't him not won the ball. I don't have a
(13:17):
problem with that. That's not what I said. I'm saying
for me.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I'm saying for me for a team that's won eighteen
games in a row. I don't want that dude on
my team. I don't want you making a fuss. Come
talk to me. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Come talk to me, Come talk to offensive coordinator, come
talk to a quarterback, coach, whatever, let's have us figure
this thing out. I agree we need to get better
offensively because they've been keeping in these weird games where
they should lose, but they find ways to win. And
we know that's not gonna be beneficial towards the end
of the season. But you don't have to make a fuss.
You don't have to read a book on the sideline.
You don't have to make a fuss last year a
(13:51):
couple of times. You don't have to make everybody think
you and jaylen Hurst don't get along. You don't have
to do it two weeks ago or after the win
last week when you had a big night.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
This's what we're supposed to do. We've got to be
more explosive.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
So I have an issue with that, and I agree
at a certain point we're gonna have to move forward
because you keep being a distraction and a team that
is a reigning Super Bowl champ go play into a
couple of Super Bowls in the last three years and
it's trying to go back again.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
So that's my issue. I don't have an issue.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
If you want the ball, what receiver didn't t o
Michael Irvin, Chris Carter, Randy Moss.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Everybody wants the ball.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
I none of those guys had dead team had won
eighteen games, And I'm dead serious. Like to go public
in that you know, cryptic way and put out the message,
I'm just I'd be like, as general manager, I'll be like, dude,
go talk to whatever you want to hold on to
that and whatever. But that's for you, you know what
you're doing. That's for your homies who keep going, how
(14:45):
come you don't get the ball? That's that's who you're dressing. Seriously,
that's the only people are those people who are in
your camp who are like, you know, look at what
so and so got one hundred and fifty yard You
don't get the ball?
Speaker 4 (14:58):
How come you don't get no touchdown? How come they
don't throw you the ball?
Speaker 3 (15:01):
He don't like you, you know, and you're listening to
that instead of what they give you all that money
for no reason.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
All you doing is blocking exactly.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
But they but but on a separate conversation, Rock, their
offense is really weird.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Right now.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Saquon Barkley is not getting busy the passing games that
ship was Onquan. I'm saying, this is strange, like your
offense can be, like, look at what they did in Tampa. Man,
that's a big weird weird They have weird weird halves
where they're like, what the heck just happened there?
Speaker 2 (15:29):
All right?
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
nine nine six sixty three sixty nine.
Speaker 4 (15:34):
Where are you? Are you cool with AJ Brown?
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Or if you're like me, I'm looking for uh to
get him a bus ticket out of town. I'm looking
for somebody who is willing to take him, and I'll
get a guy who wants to fit in. Play the scheme,
you know, get some ball some days, maybe not the next.
It depends on what happens. We want to hear from you.

They're looking at the career timeline of Darren Waller, tight
end for the Dolphins. Drafted, then suspended for a year,
then he played, had great years, signed the deal, then
he retired.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
Now he's coming back. He got two touchdowns tonight.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
He's had a he's had a wild life, and it's
good to see he's positive and his and his you know,
doing well and actually doing well on the field too.
So said the same for Tyreek Hill's. Unfortunately guys, by
the way, too soon. Yeah, I saw that. He finally
saw it.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
I said it.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
You know, we we were doing the show. You said
it's leg one the other way. I kind of just thought,
like buckled. I didn't know you meant it snapped? Yeah,
not good? Yeah, tyreek kill. Wishing him the best because
it's gonna be Yeah. Monty is rough, all right.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
It is the odd couple.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Monty's rough, like like insensitives, like it's just like calling
Jason Smith.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
That was off the I was rough. You can't do that.
Why did you do it? I can't believe you did it.
You know, I ain't even had his number. You doubt
his number? I tried to say, you texted to a
fun guy. What you're trying to say? All right? Eight
seven seven ninety nine on Fox? Where are you on? Aj? Brown?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Sounds like winning doesn't matter to him. Just as long
as he gets his numbers. That's all he really cares about.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Right now?
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Are his numbers? If you're the Eagles, are you concerned
by this? Do you move onward from him? T I
think he's somebody might want him.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
I'm not sure he's good. He's very very good. All right.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Let's go to Andre in Massachusetts. You're in the odd
couple of Fox Sports trading.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
What's up, Drake?
Speaker 10 (18:30):
How you doing? Thanks for taking the car. Listen. I
don't think I'm on team AJ Brown in this situation
from the standpoint that he's earned the gravita to be
able to lift his voice and say this is what
I want to do, this is how.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Why one of two coaches, though, why don't you do
that behind the scenes on a team that's won eighteen
straight games?
Speaker 10 (18:50):
Rob one hundred percent, I get you. I'm not for
the diva wide receiver and being disruptive. I'm just saying
I feel that Aj Brown he has earned the ability.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
He got one hundred yards though on dre last week,
so it's not like he him getting in the yards
at all. Right, he had a big day last week. Right, Okay,
this week he didn't get any they want. They went
to Tampa Bay and one, they're undefeated on the year,
eighteen wins in a row, they won a Super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
That's not enough.
Speaker 10 (19:19):
Bot taking Rob it can't be. We can't have him
going into terror Owens category. I'm just saying, let the
man say what he's saying, now, get it out of
the way, and let's get back to our winning rate.
He has the right to lift his voice, but we
don't need.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
To know that's what and Dre, I appreciate the call.
This is where we disagree to me to lift your voice.
I don't need after a big win, a tough win,
you're gonna go to Twitter because now you're creating chaos.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Now I gotta do this now, coach, you got Now
we gotta put this fire out. Not a reporter is
gonna ask about a J. Brown's not happy? Did you
see his tweet? Blah blah blah blah. Wait a minute,
didn't we just win in Tampa? Then we just went
eighteen in a row.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
I just did.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
And we don't wear raining champs. We're not a struggling team.
We're two and ten and struggling.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
And he's not getting the ball whatever the offensive stagnant.
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Hey, I can hope this get better if we if
I get the ball.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Oh okay, I am with him that they need to
find a better offensive groove. However, you're winning your reigning
Super Bowl champions. And again, holler at your boy. If
I'm Sirianni, come talk to me. If I'm Taylor Hurst Doll,
let's go do lunch, this do dinner. Let's just chop
it up at home. Man, Let's have a book club.
Since you like books, let's have a book club and
talk to me about it. Stop going to Twitter?
Speaker 4 (20:27):
What is this new?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Grown men going to Twitter all the time or just
saying what's your chest? I don't like the passive aggressive
everybody got weird Arthur emojis with a hand fist.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
I don't want to what does that mean?
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I'd rather you just say it good, but to know
it's a show and to not grow and and not
see the worth of dying soul what I'm tired. We
just played the football game. I don't want to be cryptic.
You're trying to break on his dine. Now I gotta
call my daughter and come here. What does this mean?
Oh daddy, he's saying this, He's just say it? Call
me yo, groom?
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Men would millions of dollars in the bank. A didn't
even have a conversation. It's aj right, what's up, man A?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I know we good game, baby, I know, but man A, look,
I was just saying, man, I'm really feeling like on
these routes. I know it might not look like I'm open,
but I'm stronger than he Just trust me like he
did last week.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
Ok Okay, cool, let's work call me, my phone works.
I'm sorry, get upset? All right?
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Uh, MVP race over the weekend? Was it one for
Aaron Judges will tell you next.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
Is one of the weirdest managers ever because he's won
four YEP World Series. Uh, he's gone to five. So
he won three with the Giants, one with the Rangers.
The Rangers that never won a World Series. That was big,
took the Padres to the World Series. They lost to
the Yankees. Right, But every year after he wins or
goes to the World Series, he doesn't make the playoffs.
(21:59):
It's called the week feeling myself. It's unbelieva, a little lazy.
And this one with the Rangers, the last two years
ever made it. And he had come out of retirement,
and I guess they just decided, I.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Mean, at what point do you kind of subconsciously not
even that you mean to, but you check out, you
know what I mean? You already got some titles Betty
and at home want to see you more.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
He might be the best manager of this generation.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
That's not that's not far in fact, No, I mean
five World five World Series with three different teams four
and one record in those World five that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
No, I don't have an argument with that. All right,
Let's let me say this.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
I thought Aaron Judge was the MVP before the weekend
even started.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
So how did he? Ask me?
Speaker 3 (22:42):
How did he finish the last five games a little
longer than the weekend?
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Right? The last five game? Nine hits in eighteen at bats? Okay,
what's that?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Nine hits eighteen to five fire at five hundred, four
home runs.
Speaker 4 (23:06):
And nine RBIs in his final five games of the year.
That's mid? Is that mid? Okay? Wow?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Oh, that's when you know you a hater. You're just
trying to find something that's all right.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
I'm just saying, when you look at this, and here's
the other one, Aaron Judge is the third player ever
to lead the league in hitting and hit over fifty
home runs at the same time. Mickey Mantle did it
and Jimmy Fox. Just think about that for history in
baseball and anytime you could be mentioned with Mickey Mantle,
(23:40):
you know, you know you're doing.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Some things have been going well for you. Where are
you on the al MVP L.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
I still I still think it's going to go to
I believe it's going to be cal Riley.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
And I told you reason why Aaron Judge absolutely deserving.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
And this is one of those perfect example one you
and I talked about last year and the H and
Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson in an NFL version of this,
because depending on what's your flavor, right, do you want
just sheer numbers or the sheer numbers are going to
go to.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
Aaron Judge what he's been able to do.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
If you want to add in some context position, contextualizing
what historically has never been done at that position, that's
Cayl Ridley. That's where I'm going to lean. And again
it is a knock in a good way to Aaron Judge.
That is being a victim of your own success. He
absolutely has been incredible, and I'm saying his praisen is
right next to you. What makes the remarkable was sixty
(24:31):
seven and it's mid thirties now, he's not like a
twenty seven year old thirty three, you know, early mid thirties,
whatever you want to call thirty three and still doing
this at a high level, still hitting for average, hitting
for power. The difference is what Kyl Riley's been able
to do at a position that doesn't normally do that you're
not expecting to. That's what make when you get these
Piazzas and these guys who are able to have these,
(24:51):
you know, thirty home runs too, runs Will Smith for
the Dodgers, You're like, wow, that's great. Well, sixty plus
home runs.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
No, no, no, don't give sixty plus. He had sixty.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Sixty home runs. I'm saying, just someone having sixty home
runs is crazy.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Crazy.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
If you don't even forty is like, man, you had
a remarkable season. Fifty is did you lose your mind?
Sixty as you were otherworldly for a position that is
so demanding. So you're sitting behind home plate, framing pitchers,
getting hit by tip balls and foul balls, and you know,
obviously you have to have an arm to throw people out.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
It's a very difficult position.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
You get nights off because you're going through you're beating
your battered and to come around to be sixty, get
your team a second seed in the postseason and be
a large reason for that. I just think that this
particular season is one hair of my chinny chinn e
chin more impressive.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
He batted two forty seven, okay, got the sixty home runs.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
It let to a on RBIs. Here's a problem. Had
he beaten Judges record and hit sixty three, then I
would be with you. He didn't get to a record.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Sixty No, no, no, I'm catcher, switch hitter. No, but I'm
talking for Mariners. He'd beat all those records.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
No, but he didn't.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
If he if he was the American League home run
champ and beat Aaron Judges record, you could have a case.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Aaron Joe. Why can't Aaron Judge beat his own record? No,
he can't get sixty four.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
No, no, no no.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
My point is all the all the other numbers are
just like like through the roof. I've listened to a
lot uh and and and Kyle Rowley. We talked about
the last five games.
Speaker 4 (26:33):
I think, yeah, I just looked at him. Not Aaron
Judge went crazy. No, he didn't know anything.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Only he had four RBIs in the final five games
and went hitless, right, and only had let me.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
See two home runs. If you go back six games,
but five in the last five he had right, No. One, two, three, four, five, No,
he had two. It was the night Friday. Was that
Friday night talking about it? He had that? Yeh.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
But I'm just saying, Judge back Thursday, the last five
five hundred four home runs, nine rbi, incredible numbers all
across the board. I've heard from some you know, listening
to other prominent baseball writers, and they all seem to think,
like just that, there's no way you cannot give it
to Aaron Judge. And here's the dilemma we talk about
(27:18):
all the time with the analytics people.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
You can't talk about war and ops and OPS plus
and then not.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Reward the guy who's who's way ahead of everybody in
those numbers.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
I don't have to listen for the American League. Look
look it up for me, please, Ryan, how many guys
batter over three hundred? But I know in the National League?
Get some of you guys beat over three hundred in
the National League?
Speaker 4 (27:43):
No, No know how many three one, Sarah Judge? No, No,
nationally National League?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
I'm sorry, who would be Trey turned That's what.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
He does, That's what he does. He batted three hundred.
How many guys. In the American League, Ryan, it might
have been it might be three.
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Or four, it'd be six players hit at least three hundred, okay,
and in the National League just one.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
It's it's just so, that's what eight total players hit
over three hundred, and Judge hit.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Three point thirty one. Here's my challenge. That is what
you do, Aaron Judge.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
That's what you do. That's what makes you great. Can
I give you one last cavea? Yeah? Okay?
Speaker 3 (28:22):
And nobody talked about this. He came off one of
the biggest blunders in his career in that World Series
dropping that easy fly ball, took his eyes off, bounced
back to have this kind of year like that, like
like seriously, that was a low.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Rows outfield era. The easiest play we were watching that
we could not believe.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
You know that, Ryan, you saw it. That ball could
be hit on them one hundred times. He would catch
a ninety nine point nine times.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
But here's the thing, Rob ninety You talk about ninety
nine point nine, ninety nine point nine at the times
he's winning this MVP, it ain't but ninety nine to
the other point one is when a catcher goes crazy
and it's sixty okay, and again breaks a catcher record.
You know, all on baseball has been around me and
you still would have been slaves back am I okay,
(29:14):
that's how long baseball has been around.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
I don't even think we were free. I dang it.
And then can we get god on one another? Bet
with you? Can we get a bet? What's the best
on this one?
Speaker 5 (29:24):
No?
Speaker 4 (29:24):
I haven't no, no, no no, I can't do that one.
No no, no, no, this I need like you had.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
I guess I'm saying it's too late now, like if
you'd ask me this, No, you feel like you said no, no, no,
no no no.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
I'm not on this one.
Speaker 5 (29:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
And I'm being mad or whatever, you know, a handful
of days whenever it comes out, I'll be mad, all right, No,
But any other time I'm with you. I just think
when you when you break a franchise record, switching her record,
a catcher records a base.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Eyes.
Speaker 6 (29:53):
I want to hear Ryan break the time real quick.
I think I think it's Judge. I think one thing
that really uh really wrapped presents just the difference between
these two cal Rawly hit sixty home runs Aaron Judges
slugging percentage is still one hundred points higher.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
That's the part like you got feeling real, Lamar Jackson,
Josh Allen, You're right, I might need to take this
bet just like I told you. Josh Allen was okay,
let's do it because it's not based off it.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
I get do it. I can't do that, do it.
I can't do this one.
Speaker 10 (30:23):
Do it?
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Hey, hey, hey, I'll do it. I'm not riding with
the big dumper like that.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Do it.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Let's cool. Let's get a pair of Jordan's on this.
Heck no, I wouldn't put no pair of Jordans on this.
Speaker 5 (30:36):
What do it?
Speaker 4 (30:37):
Matter of fact? Are we even writing our bets down?
Anybody were rocking?
Speaker 3 (30:40):
You know?
Speaker 4 (30:40):
I wrote him down. We got the Lions and we
got the judge a l m VP. No we didn't
do that. No, no, no, we didn't do it. Back
your hand up on me? Why back your hand it?
Give me something to chop your hand up?
Speaker 1 (30:54):

Speaker 4 (34:24):
Couple Fox Sports Radio and you are the last call.
What's up?
Speaker 11 (34:31):
I'll just turn the down and just stopped from the
we're talking about the paid between Judge. I'm the catcher,
and now this is determined by a vote of the
sports writers.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Correct baseball beat writers who cover baseball on a d
you know, on a daily basis.
Speaker 11 (34:47):
Yes, So is is there any chance? Now? I agree
with both of y'all about it's a hard decision, but
is there anyway?
Speaker 10 (34:55):
Now?
Speaker 11 (34:56):
This isn't like the Heisman worrying of a vote, and
they've had some votes that's really close. But is it
possible that with this being a blind vote there it
could be tired?
Speaker 3 (35:07):
You know, it's happened before Willie Stargo and Keith Hernandez
were co National League MVPs.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
I mean, if it happens naturally, then then it happens.
But I'm not with that, like both give it to
both of them, you know what I mean? Like pick
somebody season. Last year, Bobby wit Junr had a great
year for Kansas City and he didn't win, right, Aaron
Judge won Bobby wit Junr any other year would have
been the MVP.
Speaker 4 (35:36):
But they're just talian guy. Yeah, we did the math
and it's like fifty to fifty. What do you do? No,
it is a tide.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
But I'm just saying like I don't like the idea
of like, well just give it to both of them, Like, no,
it's not I want to.
Speaker 4 (35:50):
Vote, no, not for this.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
How do you get an MVP vote? But you only
got an MVP No, no, no, no no, I mean
the Hall of Fame vote because I'm not a beat writer.
So only if the beat writers who cover on the
daily basis, I want to be a waste of my
time asking you who you are? Forty four absolutely on this.
It would be the first every game one of one
hundred and sixty two. You'd be like, hey, I'm gonna
go ahead, hand.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
In my m v P. Rob from early let me
just no.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
That was that guy from Pro football, Remember the Aaron
Rodgers guy who said he wasn't gonna vote for him
before the season started. Remember that, that's just crazy, like
like that, like that that was a black mark for
sports writer, Cause well.
Speaker 4 (36:31):
I was just why everything bad gotta be black?
Speaker 5 (36:33):
Rob?
Speaker 4 (36:34):
Black magic? It was a black ball for sports. I'm sorry,
black ball, black Sabbath? Black? What is it a Wall Street?
What was that day? To the black market? Everything black?
Why is everything black? Black? Friday? Friday? Every Friday is
Black Friday? For me though.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
I'm just saying, by the way they're saying, I'll tell
you something. I'm texting Chris right now. Nothing in life

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Speaking of I'm gonna see Chris on Saturday. Chris is
actually coming to Connecticut, which is pretty cool. I'll tell
him he better not ever in his life laugh like that.
Speaker 4 (37:13):

Speaker 1 (37:14):
Tyreek Hill just said a dislocated knee. I think they're
selling that short.
Speaker 4 (37:19):

Speaker 3 (37:19):
But he didn't have a look on his face like
his bone was broken. Did you see it was looking
