I want to say this, We want to thank Keith
McPherson for filling in these two days for Kelvin. And
you know, he's a radio talk show host at WFAN
in New York. And it was great having you in
these last couple of days. And I'm just curious, what
(01:44):
did you find out about the odd couple of Fox
Sports Radio that maybe you didn't know.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Man, you guys are funny. You guys are very polished,
and I guess kind of pulling the curtain back, I
get to really see everything. I've watched the show, I've
listened to the show, but I get to see how
I was gonna say something that would have been a pause,
but how the the donuts are made, how the donuts
are made? I didn't, I didn't use it.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
He was gonna say how the sausage are made. There,
that would be a pause.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
We love making a sausage here.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Hey yeah, hey, oftentimes you have a sausage party here.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Oh hey, hey, get old.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Rub the face big time.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Okay, there we go, Alex, Okay, but no but' but
but really it's like, you know, you're you're so used
to We're working at FAM for a long time and
then you come to you know, the way different radio
network works, and I'm sure it's a little different, that's all.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, yeah, And it's good experience. It's good rep. Shout
out to my og, Rob P. Appreciate you, bro. You
know that, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
All right, we got a lot of stuff to get
to in this final hour on this TV theme song
Thursday and Rob G.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
Celtic fans, I don't care.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
They gotta be a static that Jason Tatum is coming
back and it only can help.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
The Celtic that's right.
Speaker 7 (03:04):
If you missed our two, we spoke about it with
Gary Washburn front of the show, long time NBA reporter
from the Boston Globe. Jason Tatum arguably the best Celtics
player of the last decade. We'll be making his return
to the court tomorrow night for the first time in
ten months after suffering a torn achilles tendon. He's coming back,
not to some cellar dweller, not to some also ran
(03:25):
not to some playoff hopeful, but to the second best
team in the Eastern Conference. They are adding a former
All NBA player all be it coming off an Achilles,
Jason Tatum back in Boston.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
And Keith I'm gonna tell you, people can poo poo
the Celtics all they want.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
I know they rode them off.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Gary Washburn, just explain how they got rid of all
their veterans. This was supposed to be a punt season, right, No,
Jason Tatum, We'll see what we got. We're not gonna
pay these old guys to stick around. We're not winning anything.
Let's trade porzingis like they just cleaned house a little bit, right,
Al Horford to you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Don't let the door hit you on the way out today.
Drew Holliday will helped him win a championship.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
All that they got rid of Luke Cornett and he said,
no Magic City Night because they got rid of him.
There you go.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
But my point, my point though, is this, with a
seventy five eighty percent, Jason Tatum, they are my favorites
in the East. I don't want to hear about the Pistons.
I don't want to hear about the Knicks. I don't
want to hear about the Calvs. Look at what they've
(04:36):
been able to do to hold this together. Jalen Brown
has had an MVP type season, how and now they're
gonna add one of the best players back to the mix,
and all pro or of for first team NBA kind
of player into the mix, and Jason Tatum. There's only
(04:56):
one reason that they lost to the Knicks last year.
They blewed up. They blew double digit fourth quarter leads
in each of the first two games.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
And in those games.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Thanks for saying that Boston shot a combined twenty.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Five for one hundred from three.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
They missed seventy five threes in two games. That's why
the Knicks beat them. That's why the Celtics went bye bye.
There's no way they could ever duplicate that. It was
unbelievable to watch the Celtics, not the Pistons who can't
(05:37):
shoot threes either. I talked about that earlier, and not
the Cavaliers even with James Harden, and not the New
York Knicks. If the Celtics play the way that they've played.
Everybody has talked about how great the Pistons have been
all year, and they have the number one seed in
the Eastern Conference and they have played great. But given
(05:58):
that the Celtics are only five games behind them with
twenty to play, and now they're getting arguably their best
player back, I'm all in on the Celtics.
Speaker 5 (06:09):
They win the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Where are you, Keith? I wouldn't say I'm all in
on them, but listen, Joe Miszoula's name hasn't been dropped yet,
and he's a big reason why they don't fold. They
did not tank, they did not punt on the season.
It's a culture thing. They win winning organizations stay winning
organizations for a reason. They just have a certain way
about them. They have a mantra like they're looking at
(06:32):
banners up there. They got lucky the leprechaun in the
middle of the court. They expect to win, Their fans
expect them to win. They don't make excuses. Now they
had a huge excuse to make one of the best
players in the game goes down, right, They could have
tucked their tails, they could have felt sorry for themselves,
but I think they're looking for revenge. I Expectatum to
come back. They will slow play him, but then when
(06:53):
they get to the playoffs, it's go time and they
want smoke with the Knicks. They want to run it back.
The Pistons also want to redeem themselves for losing to
the Knicks. The Knicks fans around me here in New
York are saying, hey, it's our year, it's championship or
bus you know, they fired their coach, brought in Mike
Brown because he's supposed to get him over the hump.
The Knicks fans thought that they were for sure a
(07:14):
shoe in to represent the East. It is not anywhere
near a shoeing now. I think the bal Boston Celtics,
with their experience with you know, doing it before two
years ago, being champions, they know what time it is
when we get to mid April. I think they're going
to be prepared. I won't say that they're a lot,
but it's like who else, the Calves, the Pistons. They're
(07:35):
gonna see a different looks when Tatum comes back. What
you saw in the regular season literally won't matter because
it's a different group and Tatum will be back even
if he is at eighty percent. Even if he is
at eighty percent, with this team, they're a winning culture,
good head coach, they're going to be ready to push
towards the finals. Again.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
This is an amazing thing, it really is. It tells
you about not giving up and not punting. And those
other guys in that locker room didn't go wows me.
We don't have Jason Tatum. Let's just go through the motions.
They kept playing, they kept playing hard. It is a
testament to their coach, Missoula, it really is. And now
(08:11):
they find themselves in a perfect situation. For all that
the Pistons have done, and they've done a lot right,
this young team and Kay Cunningham and him coming into
his own and whatnot. I still like the Celtics the Knicks.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
You're right. It was supposed to be Mike Brown.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
I always say they were looking to Harry hire Larry Brown,
and they hired Charlie Brown instead. And now you'll take
a look at the Knicks, and you're right. People thought
here it is. The Knicks are going to the NBA Finals.
No Boston, no Indiana. Right, the Bucks are out on
the sidelines. We already know about Cleveland. The Knicks have
(08:55):
manhandled Cleveland over the last couple of years, so there's
nobody in the way and guess what, here come the Celtics,
and the Celtics have what you want. I don't know,
how do you feel if you're a Celtic and you've
already put together the year that they have number two
in the Eastern Conference without your star, and now he's
(09:17):
coming back, he doesn't have to be one hundred percent.
They have a real shot to get to the finals.
Nobody could have ever imagined that coming into the season.
Everywhere I read and everywhere I looked, the Celtics were
written off and here we are.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
I watched some.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Lose to the Brooklyn Nets this year, like the Nets
have fifteen wins, they beat the Celtics. The people were
like they're cooked. And again it's a testament to their
coaching and their culture. They kept themselves at the top
of the league, they kept themselves at the top of
the East, and they get their guy back. It's unpredictable.
You can't predict sports. That's why you can bet on it.
(09:59):
That's why we go watch it and we don't know
what's gonna happen here. But I know they got to
be hella confident getting Tatum back. And then it also
is insurance and guess you know in case somebody else
goes down, Right, if you lose one of the guys
you've been dependent on, Well here comes Tatum, right, and
they'll expand his role. They made the trade for Vucevic,
like you know, they made little moves here and there.
Some of the younger guys have evolved. I think they're
(10:20):
in prime position to get back to the finals two
years after winning it and try to avenge that loss
against the Knicks and then experienced plays the Pistons. They
played one round last year, they lost all their games
at home.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Well, here it is, and I want you guys to
make a case. I made my case for the Celtics.
I want Rob g to make his case for the
Pistons because he's adopted the Pistons Detroit basketball, right, Alex
and all that, right, But I want you Keith to
make the k trade Nicks because the Knicks are there.
So go ahead, and then we'll throw it out to
(10:52):
everybody listening to the odd couple. Who are you gonna
be behind? I already made my case for the Celtics.
Go ahead the Knicks. Can they get to the Eastern
Conference Finals?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
As a known Knicks hater, I can do this I
can do this. I'm a Nets fan, I'm from Jersey.
But listen, the Knicks are never this consistently good. They
got rid of Tom Thibodeaux for a reason. They felt
like he was a dinosaur. They felt like he could
not get them over the hump and take them to
the promised Land. They went knocking on doors. They said, Hey,
can we get Jason Kidd, Hey can we get Quinn Snyder?
Hey can we get Billy Donovan? Will take anybody? Mike
(11:23):
Brown good enough? What can Brown do for you? As
of late, their defense is one of the best in
the NBA. As of late, those guys are playing and
they're locked in their focus. As of late, Karl Anthony
Towns is playing a lot better. No stupid fouls, He's
staying in the post. And I think if they're healthy
keyword healthy. They've had a ton of injuries this year.
They feel like they have the experience, They feel like
(11:44):
they have the group, og Nanobi, Michale Bridges, Josh Hart,
Jalen Brunson, the Clutch Player of the Year, Captain Clutch.
They feel like they even have the bench pieces as well.
They go at Jose Alvarado GTA five the junkyard dog like.
They have some different, in changeable pieces that they feel
like they match up well against whoever, especially in the
playoffs with home court advantage in the Mecca, the world's
(12:07):
most famous arena. The Knicks, No, they won the NBA Cup.
They don't want to raise that banner. The only banner
that they want to raise, and that Knicks fans expect
them to raise, is the twenty twenty six NBA champions banner.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
All right, Rob g, you know what your adopted team is? God,
I love that. That's wish I was from Detroit right now.
That's Mason. Mason is the best, no doubt, friend of
the show. Look, I don't know what you guys are
talking about right now. I don't think y'all are elite
ball nowhere, such as myself.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
Okay, me and Calvin Washington, Alex Tyscher, Martin Wise.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
We were on the business train since nineteen eighty seven,
Rob Parker, nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 5 (12:45):

I have Cade cunning Am the.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Best American born player in basketball self proclaimed allegedly. I
don't believe that part, but listen, Detroit one and eight
on the road, second best road.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
Record in the NBA.
Speaker 7 (13:03):
They are a combined six and one against the Knicks
and the Celtics, your two favorite teams.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
You guys are talking about, Like, are all worried about
the Celtics? Are worried about the Knicks.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
The Pistons smack both of those teams every time they
play them.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
They are eleven and two after a loss this season.
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Guys, they are one of only two teas or three
teams in the NBA who.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Have not lost more than back to back games all season.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
How are you gonna beat a team like that four
times out of seven in the series, Ron Parker, You're.

Speaker 5 (16:55):
You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Brandon?
Speaker 2 (16:57):
How are you?
Speaker 8 (16:59):
I'm good.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
I'm good.
Speaker 8 (17:00):
Man was going on. I know it's been a while
from men. I've been on the Overnight So I catch
you guys on the podcast.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
Well, but always good when you call in.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
Buddy, Yeah, yeah, you know, I love the show. So
I was telling Rob Gen, I said, I I think
Boston in the beginning of the year, even though I knew
they didn't have Tatum or you know, possibly they wouldn't
have them for the whole.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Year, you picked Boston to win the East.
Speaker 8 (17:26):
Will I could call my wife, She be like, what
you was crazy? I said, because I didn't. I don't
trust Detroit because they're still young, and I think they
need another I think that I believe they need another
player to help hey in the playoffs. I didn't trust
Cleveland because you saw what they did last year.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
They exploded.
Speaker 8 (17:44):
You know, they exploded last year, and no and that's
just be honest. New York is New York. They always
get there and they.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Just fall off the rails.
Speaker 8 (17:52):
So I believe, I know. I'm I'm very happy that
Tatum coming back because me and my guys we got
a bat. We take, we pick a team and the
beginning at the begin of the year, and I picked
Boston to make it to the finals. So wow, you
comes true for me. I can get my money.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Let's put it.
Speaker 8 (18:10):
You guys have a great night.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
How much you bet on that? What do you put
on that?
Speaker 5 (18:15):
The lost to him? Yeah, that's a good one though.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
But to be able to pick the uh the Celtics
before the season, considering all the trades and all the
veterans they got rid of and whatnot, that is a
big time uh pick right there. How about Harry in Indiana,
you're in the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
What's up, Harry? How are you?
Speaker 9 (18:34):
I'm doing well?

Speaker 9 (18:38):

that's the one guy about the Knicks. I think Jaden
Drumston and of having a many good year this year.
Speaker 5 (18:47):

Or have you just accepted it?
Speaker 9 (19:00):
Yeah, I've just accepted that they're not winning it because
they're pretty terrible.
Speaker 4 (19:04):

might get a big time player or at least a
good player. All right, Hey, Harry Man, we appreciate that's

that's what I got. Seven sports media trivia questions are
sports sports trivia, not media questions. You got to help
Alex get up the tower, all right. If you look
at the question, you have a mole de frenny emailable
to you. The questions get harder as you go up.
It's going to be easy for you speak for yourself before.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
A guy like Alejandro. I don't know about that. A
couple of ground rules for you.
Speaker 7 (22:48):
Number one, your clue has to be a real word, Rob,
That's why death you.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Keith, a real word. Number two, your clue has to
be in English. That's why in the bodega's all day
friendly for these rules. And we'll skip the rhyming.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
One good, this is first time a right If you
want to use a rhyming word, that's okay.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
Normally we don't allow.
Speaker 7 (23:10):
It, but is your mate in voyage, We're gonna give
you a leg up on that one, right, all right,
flip the coin. During Martin Deward winning update, Rob Parker
gets questioned number one.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
So let's get to it. It's good.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
I could show Keith how its done, how I'm a professional.
Oh do this, and I kick Kelvin's butt all the time.
Speaker 7 (23:30):
And Keith, just so you know, if Alex does not
get the answer correct, we're gonna go to you for
a chance to steal. Okay, So it goes back and
forth up to twice each if nobody gets the answer.
So here we go for ten points. Rob, The Bears
and Bills made a trade today. We talked about an
hour one with Chicago sending wide receiver DJ blank to Buffalo.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
Alex.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
How are you, Rob?
Speaker 6 (23:53):

Speaker 6 (24:14):
I'm so ready. There You're gonna be making sports innuendos comment.
It's so funny.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Here we go.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
It's real simple, Alex speak for yourself less telling Rob Parker.
It's got to be the opposite. So that must be more.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
That is correct? Ten points, Keith, you're impressed. You see
that you're impressed water and made it easy for him.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
I tell you when you're impressed, Okay, not you, I say, okay,
all right, Keith, Hopefully you figured it out, because it's
back to you now for ten points.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Question number two. When former Bill's running back O. J.
Speaker 7 (24:48):
Simpson was involved in the slowest car chase ever in
the infamous White Bronco, the running joke, both in print
and on television was quote, the blank.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Is loose.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Orange blank, So one word.
Speaker 5 (25:09):
So the word you're looking at your clue is orange orange.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
Okay, Keith, you're trying to get in the mind of
an Alex Sischer. What is orange? Oranges are a color
colors for things. But I like juice, juice, something that
is correct.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Juice, easy work. That's simp fuck Keith.
Speaker 7 (25:25):
All right, let's get a little tough for tyers Cower
at trivia level number three.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
Back to Rob Parker, Rob three.
Speaker 7 (25:30):
For the last fifty plus years, the Chicago Bears have
played their home games at the Iconic blank Field.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
There's a lot of fields out there, Rob Alex. You
know what I say.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
If does grass on the field, it's.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Good to play.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Percy Miller master P.

Nineteen to ten, oh, Rob, and it goes back to
Keith for ten points. Here level number four Tyra Tower
at Trivia The Bills and Bears addition Keith, the Bills
have one of the most rabid fan bases in all
of sports, not just in football. They're breaking through tables
and they call themselves Bill's Blank.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
The one word is.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
Mob, mob mob mob. Give me that, Give me it again, Rob.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
All right, Bill's crazy fan base. They call themselves Bill's Black.
Speaker 6 (27:47):

that is it.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
I want to say cocaine.
Speaker 4 (28:41):

been bad, but it's usually dumb mob. Right if you
said dumb bottle.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Words, no words.
Speaker 7 (28:50):
Nineteen all level number five. We're getting into the end here, guys.
All right, back to Rob Parker. Rob the nineteen eighty
five Bears defense. You did not cover that you were
not in the league.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I did not.
Speaker 5 (29:01):
I started covering the NFL in nineteen eighty.
Speaker 7 (29:04):
Late to the party because you missed the eighty five Bears.
They were so dominant the clubs. Come on, Rob got
a late start.
Speaker 10 (29:12):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Club's PR department started.

Wow ah loox, how were you?

Last call time on the.
Speaker 10 (34:31):
Odd Come.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
All right, Caleb in Missouri, you are the last caller
here on the Odd Couple Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
Caleb, what you got hey?
Speaker 10 (34:47):
I don't know why anyone's not talking about this. Cleveland
is holding Jim Shorts hostage as their defensive coordinator. I
don't know if this is precedented at all, but Cleveland
just continues to build ill will amongst the League. Are
they to not have a defensive coordinator. I don't know
what the game plan is there.
Speaker 4 (35:04):
They should let him go. They passed him over for
head coach, right, Jim Schwartz. Yes, and and I don't
know what what are you holding off for him for?
Like you You're gonna make him beat a defensal coordinator.
Speaker 10 (35:14):
Like you did to change his mind somehow.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Right, it's silly, And that's why the Browns or to.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Browns, Miles Garrett is gonna speed over to his house
and convince him.
Speaker 5 (35:24):
Did you see that?
Speaker 7 (35:26):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (35:26):
What if he got nine speeding tickets? He doesn't care?
Call it Caleb, appreciate it, thank you?
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah? Crazy, right, it is kind of crazy.
Speaker 7 (35:36):
They.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I don't know what kind of rod. I've never been
out there to Cleveland, Ohio. But remember Shador got a
ticket too. So these guys are out there speed racing,
drag racing, Tokyo drift need for speed. I guess nothing
else to do.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
It is crazy, all right. Last thing I know you
wanted to talk about was A J. Brown and his situation.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
We got Yeah, because if DJ Moore is getting like, okay,
what is the cost for or Aj Brown? If you
trade you gotta have a first round pick in there, right.
I was reading something about they want to Quinn Williams return.
You know, Quinn Williams getting traded from the Jets to
the Dallas Cowboys. They gave up Mazzie Smith. They gave
up a twenty twenty six second round pick and a
(36:14):
twenty twenty seven first round pick. Now, who's gonna do it?
You could find someone. And when you look right, Dj
Moore comes into the AFC East, Stefan Diggs is out.
We already know about Mike Vrabel, AJ Brown their relationship
and Julian Edelman talked to AJ Brown. He grew up
a Patriots fan. Would the Patriots give up this hall
(36:35):
to get AJ Brown to help Drake May? Drake Drake
May needed some help. He needed some milk. He needed
some milk in the Super Bowl, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
You know what AJ Brown is so interesting to me
because we know he's talented. He's a pain in the
butt though, you know, like he'd rather get his catchers
than win. And we've seen it with the Eagles. There
were weeks when they lost, but he got his yards
and catches and he was cool with it. And then
there were other weeks when they won and he didn't
(37:05):
get his and he had a problem. I just don't
understand that mentality. It's about winning at one point the Eagles,
and I'm not saying it's perfect, and I get it.
All receivers want the ball, but you don't want to
get yourself in a situation where people think you're a
headache and a distraction and it's all about you, because
it's about winning.
Speaker 5 (37:23):
At the end of the day, he.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Won, he got a Super Bowl ring. He's ready to
get up out of there. He wants to play with
a real quarterback. He wants to be in a real system.
He wants to be the number one.
Speaker 5 (37:33):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
It could happen.
Speaker 5 (37:34):
Okay, don't mean that you're gonna win anything. And I
hear you.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
It'll be interesting to see just how it plays out
and whether or not people want to deal because sometimes
you know, like people.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
Will deal with issues as long as you're talented.
Speaker 4 (37:49):
You know that, And as soon as that wears off,
people will say to themselves, Okay, we'd rather not we'd
rather not do that.
Speaker 5 (37:56):
We don't want to deal with that when you're not
that player. So right now, I do believe he's that player,
it'll be interesting.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Any teams you'd think have the better shot at them,
just you know from report you Brett, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Maybe, like everybody's saying, the Giants need to get a
wide receiver. I don't think that they would give it up, though,
I think the price is gonna be too high. But
like Jeffrey Lorie, Howie Roseman and those guys, like they
wheel and deal, they're very good at making trades, they're
very good at drafting. And if they feel like he
is an issue in the locker room, obviously they already
paid Jalen Hurts and you got Saquon he needs to
(38:31):
have a bounce back year. They got other guys. They
got Davonte Smith. Like if they want to shop aj Brown,
especially after this DJ More deal, I think somebody's gonna
pay him. Somebody's gonna give him that first round pick
for him. I don't know exactly who it is who's
really needy. The Ravens.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
The Ravens could be the Ravens.
Speaker 4 (38:46):
That's gonna be interesting, and that's gonna about wrap up
this odd couple. Show Man, Keith appreciate you tell everybody
where they could beat you on social media, Keith McPherson.
Speaker 5 (38:55):
Of course, WFA.
Speaker 2 (38:56):

first name, last name, Keith McPherson on every social media platform.

and the Draft is coming, and we get through March
Madness and we get to the NBA playoffs and all that,
I will be outside. I'll be available, So look online
and look for me in your local stadium as well.

(01:44):
did you find out about the odd couple of Fox
Sports Radio that maybe you didn't know.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Man, you guys are funny. You guys are very polished,
and I guess kind of pulling the curtain back, I
get to really see everything. I've watched the show, I've
listened to the show, but I get to see how
I was gonna say something that would have been a pause,
but how the the donuts are made, how the donuts
are made? I didn't, I didn't use it.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
He was gonna say how the sausage are made. There,
that would be a pause.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
We love making a sausage here.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Hey yeah, hey, oftentimes you have a sausage party here.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Oh hey, hey, get old.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Rub the face big time.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Okay, there we go, Alex, Okay, but no but' but
but really it's like, you know, you're you're so used
to We're working at FAM for a long time and
then you come to you know, the way different radio
network works, and I'm sure it's a little different, that's all.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, yeah, And it's good experience. It's good rep. Shout
out to my og, Rob P. Appreciate you, bro. You
know that, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
All right, we got a lot of stuff to get
to in this final hour on this TV theme song
Thursday and Rob G.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
Celtic fans, I don't care.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
They gotta be a static that Jason Tatum is coming
back and it only can help.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
The Celtic that's right.
Speaker 7 (03:04):
If you missed our two, we spoke about it with
Gary Washburn front of the show, long time NBA reporter
from the Boston Globe. Jason Tatum arguably the best Celtics
player of the last decade. We'll be making his return
to the court tomorrow night for the first time in
ten months after suffering a torn achilles tendon. He's coming back,
not to some cellar dweller, not to some also ran
(03:25):
not to some playoff hopeful, but to the second best
team in the Eastern Conference. They are adding a former
All NBA player all be it coming off an Achilles,
Jason Tatum back in Boston.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
And Keith I'm gonna tell you, people can poo poo
the Celtics all they want.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
I know they rode them off.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Gary Washburn, just explain how they got rid of all
their veterans. This was supposed to be a punt season, right, No,
Jason Tatum, We'll see what we got. We're not gonna
pay these old guys to stick around. We're not winning anything.
Let's trade porzingis like they just cleaned house a little bit, right,
Al Horford to you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Don't let the door hit you on the way out today.
Drew Holliday will helped him win a championship.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
All that they got rid of Luke Cornett and he said,
no Magic City Night because they got rid of him.
There you go.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
But my point, my point though, is this, with a
seventy five eighty percent, Jason Tatum, they are my favorites
in the East. I don't want to hear about the Pistons.
I don't want to hear about the Knicks. I don't
want to hear about the Calvs. Look at what they've
(04:36):
been able to do to hold this together. Jalen Brown
has had an MVP type season, how and now they're
gonna add one of the best players back to the mix,
and all pro or of for first team NBA kind
of player into the mix, and Jason Tatum. There's only
(04:56):
one reason that they lost to the Knicks last year.
They blewed up. They blew double digit fourth quarter leads
in each of the first two games.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
And in those games.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Thanks for saying that Boston shot a combined twenty.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Five for one hundred from three.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
They missed seventy five threes in two games. That's why
the Knicks beat them. That's why the Celtics went bye bye.
There's no way they could ever duplicate that. It was
unbelievable to watch the Celtics, not the Pistons who can't
(05:37):
shoot threes either. I talked about that earlier, and not
the Cavaliers even with James Harden, and not the New
York Knicks. If the Celtics play the way that they've played.
Everybody has talked about how great the Pistons have been
all year, and they have the number one seed in
the Eastern Conference and they have played great. But given
(05:58):
that the Celtics are only five games behind them with
twenty to play, and now they're getting arguably their best
player back, I'm all in on the Celtics.
Speaker 5 (06:09):
They win the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Where are you, Keith? I wouldn't say I'm all in
on them, but listen, Joe Miszoula's name hasn't been dropped yet,
and he's a big reason why they don't fold. They
did not tank, they did not punt on the season.
It's a culture thing. They win winning organizations stay winning
organizations for a reason. They just have a certain way
about them. They have a mantra like they're looking at
(06:32):
banners up there. They got lucky the leprechaun in the
middle of the court. They expect to win, Their fans
expect them to win. They don't make excuses. Now they
had a huge excuse to make one of the best
players in the game goes down, right, They could have
tucked their tails, they could have felt sorry for themselves,
but I think they're looking for revenge. I Expectatum to
come back. They will slow play him, but then when
(06:53):
they get to the playoffs, it's go time and they
want smoke with the Knicks. They want to run it back.
The Pistons also want to redeem themselves for losing to
the Knicks. The Knicks fans around me here in New
York are saying, hey, it's our year, it's championship or
bus you know, they fired their coach, brought in Mike
Brown because he's supposed to get him over the hump.
The Knicks fans thought that they were for sure a
(07:14):
shoe in to represent the East. It is not anywhere
near a shoeing now. I think the bal Boston Celtics,
with their experience with you know, doing it before two
years ago, being champions, they know what time it is
when we get to mid April. I think they're going
to be prepared. I won't say that they're a lot,
but it's like who else, the Calves, the Pistons. They're
(07:35):
gonna see a different looks when Tatum comes back. What
you saw in the regular season literally won't matter because
it's a different group and Tatum will be back even
if he is at eighty percent. Even if he is
at eighty percent, with this team, they're a winning culture,
good head coach, they're going to be ready to push
towards the finals. Again.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
This is an amazing thing, it really is. It tells
you about not giving up and not punting. And those
other guys in that locker room didn't go wows me.
We don't have Jason Tatum. Let's just go through the motions.
They kept playing, they kept playing hard. It is a
testament to their coach, Missoula, it really is. And now
(08:11):
they find themselves in a perfect situation. For all that
the Pistons have done, and they've done a lot right,
this young team and Kay Cunningham and him coming into
his own and whatnot. I still like the Celtics the Knicks.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
You're right. It was supposed to be Mike Brown.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
I always say they were looking to Harry hire Larry Brown,
and they hired Charlie Brown instead. And now you'll take
a look at the Knicks, and you're right. People thought
here it is. The Knicks are going to the NBA Finals.
No Boston, no Indiana. Right, the Bucks are out on
the sidelines. We already know about Cleveland. The Knicks have
(08:55):
manhandled Cleveland over the last couple of years, so there's
nobody in the way and guess what, here come the Celtics,
and the Celtics have what you want. I don't know,
how do you feel if you're a Celtic and you've
already put together the year that they have number two
in the Eastern Conference without your star, and now he's
(09:17):
coming back, he doesn't have to be one hundred percent.
They have a real shot to get to the finals.
Nobody could have ever imagined that coming into the season.
Everywhere I read and everywhere I looked, the Celtics were
written off and here we are.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
I watched some.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Lose to the Brooklyn Nets this year, like the Nets
have fifteen wins, they beat the Celtics. The people were
like they're cooked. And again it's a testament to their
coaching and their culture. They kept themselves at the top
of the league, they kept themselves at the top of
the East, and they get their guy back. It's unpredictable.
You can't predict sports. That's why you can bet on it.
(09:59):
That's why we go watch it and we don't know
what's gonna happen here. But I know they got to
be hella confident getting Tatum back. And then it also
is insurance and guess you know in case somebody else
goes down, Right, if you lose one of the guys
you've been dependent on, Well here comes Tatum, right, and
they'll expand his role. They made the trade for Vucevic,
like you know, they made little moves here and there.
Some of the younger guys have evolved. I think they're
(10:20):
in prime position to get back to the finals two
years after winning it and try to avenge that loss
against the Knicks and then experienced plays the Pistons. They
played one round last year, they lost all their games
at home.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Well, here it is, and I want you guys to
make a case. I made my case for the Celtics.
I want Rob g to make his case for the
Pistons because he's adopted the Pistons Detroit basketball, right, Alex
and all that, right, But I want you Keith to
make the k trade Nicks because the Knicks are there.
So go ahead, and then we'll throw it out to
(10:52):
everybody listening to the odd couple. Who are you gonna
be behind? I already made my case for the Celtics.
Go ahead the Knicks. Can they get to the Eastern
Conference Finals?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
As a known Knicks hater, I can do this I
can do this. I'm a Nets fan, I'm from Jersey.
But listen, the Knicks are never this consistently good. They
got rid of Tom Thibodeaux for a reason. They felt
like he was a dinosaur. They felt like he could
not get them over the hump and take them to
the promised Land. They went knocking on doors. They said, Hey,
can we get Jason Kidd, Hey can we get Quinn Snyder?
Hey can we get Billy Donovan? Will take anybody? Mike
(11:23):
Brown good enough? What can Brown do for you? As
of late, their defense is one of the best in
the NBA. As of late, those guys are playing and
they're locked in their focus. As of late, Karl Anthony
Towns is playing a lot better. No stupid fouls, He's
staying in the post. And I think if they're healthy
keyword healthy. They've had a ton of injuries this year.
They feel like they have the experience, They feel like
(11:44):
they have the group, og Nanobi, Michale Bridges, Josh Hart,
Jalen Brunson, the Clutch Player of the Year, Captain Clutch.
They feel like they even have the bench pieces as well.
They go at Jose Alvarado GTA five the junkyard dog like.
They have some different, in changeable pieces that they feel
like they match up well against whoever, especially in the
playoffs with home court advantage in the Mecca, the world's
(12:07):
most famous arena. The Knicks, No, they won the NBA Cup.
They don't want to raise that banner. The only banner
that they want to raise, and that Knicks fans expect
them to raise, is the twenty twenty six NBA champions banner.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
All right, Rob g, you know what your adopted team is? God,
I love that. That's wish I was from Detroit right now.
That's Mason. Mason is the best, no doubt, friend of
the show. Look, I don't know what you guys are
talking about right now. I don't think y'all are elite
ball nowhere, such as myself.
Speaker 5 (12:37):

Speaker 5 (13:09):
You guys are talking about, Like, are all worried about
the Celtics? Are worried about the Knicks.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
The Pistons smack both of those teams every time they
play them.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
They are eleven and two after a loss this season.
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Guys, they are one of only two teas or three
teams in the NBA who.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Have not lost more than back to back games all season.
Speaker 7 (13:30):

you guys on the podcast.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
Well, but always good when you call in.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
Buddy, Yeah, yeah, you know, I love the show. So
I was telling Rob Gen, I said, I I think
Boston in the beginning of the year, even though I knew
they didn't have Tatum or you know, possibly they wouldn't
have them for the whole.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Year, you picked Boston to win the East.
Speaker 8 (17:26):
Will I could call my wife, She be like, what
you was crazy? I said, because I didn't. I don't
trust Detroit because they're still young, and I think they
need another I think that I believe they need another
player to help hey in the playoffs. I didn't trust
Cleveland because you saw what they did last year.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
They exploded.
Speaker 8 (17:44):
You know, they exploded last year, and no and that's
just be honest. New York is New York. They always
get there and they.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Just fall off the rails.
Speaker 8 (17:52):
So I believe, I know. I'm I'm very happy that
Tatum coming back because me and my guys we got
a bat. We take, we pick a team and the
beginning at the begin of the year, and I picked
Boston to make it to the finals. So wow, you
comes true for me. I can get my money.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Let's put it.

star of this segment living in a van these days.
True story down by the River, dropping heat on a
podcast allegedly that nobody downloads no more because he hasn't
an episode in about six weeks. Not true at all,
but he does let go with the shirt off. Thank
you none other than our resident DJ Alex Tischer.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Now, Keith, I know you're new to the show, but
there's this saying we have here suns out, buns out,
so the sun is shining out here. You're definitely getting
a fill in for me producing with you guys, But
robb g has lied and defecated and definated on my
name for too many segments. The show still consistently gets downloads.
It just comes out when you need it. There you go,
And that dude Keith never missed it. What does keep
(22:16):
know how to play? I talked to me before the show.
We're going to regroup the rules. Okay, okay, so it is.
Speaker 7 (22:23):
It's very similar to the old TV show password A right,
that's what I got. Seven sports media trivia questions are
sports sports trivia, not media questions. You got to help
Alex get up the tower, all right. If you look
at the question, you have a mole de frenny emailable
to you. The questions get harder as you go up.
It's going to be easy for you speak for yourself before.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
A guy like Alejandro. I don't know about that. A
couple of ground rules for you.
Speaker 7 (22:48):
Number one, your clue has to be a real word, Rob,
That's why death you.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Keith, a real word. Number two, your clue has to
be in English. That's why in the bodega's all day
friendly for these rules. And we'll skip the rhyming.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
One good, this is first time a right If you
want to use a rhyming word, that's okay.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
Normally we don't allow.
Speaker 7 (23:10):
It, but is your mate in voyage, We're gonna give
you a leg up on that one, right, all right,
flip the coin. During Martin Deward winning update, Rob Parker
gets questioned number one.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
So let's get to it. It's good.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
I could show Keith how its done, how I'm a professional.
Oh do this, and I kick Kelvin's butt all the time.
Speaker 7 (23:30):
And Keith, just so you know, if Alex does not
get the answer correct, we're gonna go to you for
a chance to steal. Okay, So it goes back and
forth up to twice each if nobody gets the answer.
So here we go for ten points. Rob, The Bears
and Bills made a trade today. We talked about an
hour one with Chicago sending wide receiver DJ blank to Buffalo.

that you're impressed water and made it easy for him.
Speaker 1 (24:37):

Speaker 10 (34:31):
Odd Come.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
All right, Caleb in Missouri, you are the last caller
here on the Odd Couple Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
Caleb, what you got hey?
Speaker 10 (34:47):
I don't know why anyone's not talking about this. Cleveland
is holding Jim Shorts hostage as their defensive coordinator. I
don't know if this is precedented at all, but Cleveland
just continues to build ill will amongst the League. Are
they to not have a defensive coordinator. I don't know
what the game plan is there.
Speaker 4 (35:04):
They should let him go. They passed him over for
head coach, right, Jim Schwartz. Yes, and and I don't
know what what are you holding off for him for?
Like you You're gonna make him beat a defensal coordinator.
Speaker 10 (35:14):
Like you did to change his mind somehow.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Right, it's silly, And that's why the Browns or to.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Browns, Miles Garrett is gonna speed over to his house
and convince him.
Speaker 5 (35:24):
Did you see that?
Speaker 7 (35:26):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (35:26):
What if he got nine speeding tickets? He doesn't care?
Call it Caleb, appreciate it, thank you?
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah? Crazy, right, it is kind of crazy.
Speaker 7 (35:36):
They.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I don't know what kind of rod. I've never been
out there to Cleveland, Ohio. But remember Shador got a
ticket too. So these guys are out there speed racing,
drag racing, Tokyo drift need for speed. I guess nothing
else to do.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
It is crazy, all right. Last thing I know you
wanted to talk about was A J. Brown and his situation.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
We got Yeah, because if DJ Moore is getting like, okay,
what is the cost for or Aj Brown? If you
trade you gotta have a first round pick in there, right.
I was reading something about they want to Quinn Williams return.
You know, Quinn Williams getting traded from the Jets to
the Dallas Cowboys. They gave up Mazzie Smith. They gave
up a twenty twenty six second round pick and a
(36:14):
twenty twenty seven first round pick. Now, who's gonna do it?
You could find someone. And when you look right, Dj
Moore comes into the AFC East, Stefan Diggs is out.
We already know about Mike Vrabel, AJ Brown their relationship
and Julian Edelman talked to AJ Brown. He grew up
a Patriots fan. Would the Patriots give up this hall
(36:35):
to get AJ Brown to help Drake May? Drake Drake
May needed some help. He needed some milk. He needed
some milk in the Super Bowl, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
You know what AJ Brown is so interesting to me
because we know he's talented. He's a pain in the
butt though, you know, like he'd rather get his catchers
than win. And we've seen it with the Eagles. There
were weeks when they lost, but he got his yards
and catches and he was cool with it. And then
there were other weeks when they won and he didn't
(37:05):
get his and he had a problem. I just don't
understand that mentality. It's about winning at one point the Eagles,
and I'm not saying it's perfect, and I get it.
All receivers want the ball, but you don't want to
get yourself in a situation where people think you're a
headache and a distraction and it's all about you, because
it's about winning.
Speaker 5 (37:23):
At the end of the day, he.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Won, he got a Super Bowl ring. He's ready to
get up out of there. He wants to play with
a real quarterback. He wants to be in a real system.
He wants to be the number one.
Speaker 5 (37:33):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
It could happen.
Speaker 5 (37:34):
Okay, don't mean that you're gonna win anything. And I
hear you.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
It'll be interesting to see just how it plays out
and whether or not people want to deal because sometimes
you know, like people.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
Will deal with issues as long as you're talented.
Speaker 4 (37:49):
You know that, And as soon as that wears off,
people will say to themselves, Okay, we'd rather not we'd
rather not do that.
Speaker 5 (37:56):
We don't want to deal with that when you're not
that player. So right now, I do believe he's that player,
it'll be interesting.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Any teams you'd think have the better shot at them,
just you know from report you Brett, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Maybe, like everybody's saying, the Giants need to get a
wide receiver. I don't think that they would give it up, though,
I think the price is gonna be too high. But
like Jeffrey Lorie, Howie Roseman and those guys, like they
wheel and deal, they're very good at making trades, they're
very good at drafting. And if they feel like he
is an issue in the locker room, obviously they already
paid Jalen Hurts and you got Saquon he needs to
(38:31):
have a bounce back year. They got other guys. They
got Davonte Smith. Like if they want to shop aj Brown,
especially after this DJ More deal, I think somebody's gonna
pay him. Somebody's gonna give him that first round pick
for him. I don't know exactly who it is who's
really needy. The Ravens.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
The Ravens could be the Ravens.
Speaker 4 (38:46):
That's gonna be interesting, and that's gonna about wrap up
this odd couple. Show Man, Keith appreciate you tell everybody
where they could beat you on social media, Keith McPherson.
Speaker 5 (38:55):
Of course, WFA.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
I ain't hard to find. I ain't hard to find
first name, last name, Keith McPherson on every social media platform.
And stay tuned this spring when the Yankees start playing
and the Draft is coming, and we get through March
Madness and we get to the NBA playoffs and all that,
I will be outside. I'll be available, So look online
and look for me in your local stadium as well.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
All right, my man, appreciate you, Thank you so much.

This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
