Speaker 1 (00:00):
Third and final hour of the program. Here glad to
have you with us for this final hour of the
program on Sports Radio AM thirteen under the Zone. Craigway,
Cameron Parker with you up until five o'clock. Coming up
in a few minutes. Gene Watson, our MLB insider from
the Chicago White Sox front office.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Joins us. We got his predictions last week.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
And they were mostly on Paar.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
What was his World Series prediction again?
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Oh, he's got the Padres and the Guardians. Okay, so
far that's holding up. Now.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
We did have the Astros winning a day last year.
I think he had.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Was it Rangers Dodgers or Rangers Phillies, Rangers Phillies, I think.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It was Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got Padres and Guardians
and it doesn't look too bad right now. Guardians, both
of them swept the Wild Card series. Padres and Dodgers
are tied at a game apiece after sanding he was
ten to two drubbing of the Dodgers last night at
Chavez Ravine. The Guardians one game one of their Division
(01:02):
Series seven or nothing over the Tigers.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Right now it is scoreless.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Uh and that ballgame is in the top of the
fourth inning and the Tigers have a runner at second
with one out, and that inning actually a runner at
third with one out as it is scoreless there. But
we'll talk more about that with Gino coming up as well.
We've we've talked quite a bit about college football. We'll
hear more from Steve Sarkaisian this hour. But with regard
(01:28):
to the NFL, what was the most surprising result to
you yesterday on to day that featured some surprises.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Oh, that's a good question.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Huh mmm.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I think what we saw in San Francisco. I mentioned
earlier in the season it could be the year from
hell for San Francisco in the offseason with all of
of course, you know the contract disputees going on with that,
you CA and Trent Williams, and you know CMC was injured,
but he said in like week two, oh I would
(02:02):
you know, if the game was today, I would play.
And here we are in what now going in the
week six, and you still have no idea if he's
coming back. And you know San Francisco now two and
three didn't score a single point in the second half
against the Cardinals defense. That you look at, it is
not all that great. So I think the alarm bells
(02:22):
really and every team in the NFC West right now
are going off. I mean, you mentioned Rams, who easily
could be three and one, four and oh as supposed
to one and four, but same thing. I mean, Matthew
Stafford's out throwing the Uber Drivers. I mean, the team
is so banged up injury wise. And then Seattle inexplicably
loses to the New York Giants at home and just
(02:44):
a really weird game. And of course, you know they
played Monday night, and you know they had that back
and forth game, that Seattle loss in which Gino threw
for like seven hundred yards against Detroit, and you know,
maybe you can factor that in just an emotional letdown game.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
The NFC West.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Greg just it's a really really weird division to kind
of figure out.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
And now, of course it's eighteen weeks.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
It's only week five, and we're probably gonna look back
at the first month and just you know, throw it
out the window because that's usually how it goes. But
my top biggest result is the biggest surprise from the
weekend I think was just San Francisco now falling the
two and three.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
All right, complete this sentence for me. The Washington Commanders
are hm M.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
I don't know, because on one hand, four and one
leading the NFC East offenses look good, Jaydon Dennis look good.
But also you know they've beaten the Browns. Okay, I'm
not going to give you that beating the Giants, not
going to give you that. Cincinnati could be a good win.
And then Arizona, we know, who knows they might be
the best team in the NFC East. But the jury
(03:48):
I think is still out in Washington, Craig, I want
to see it. Let me see this team continue to
win games like that deeper into November before we go
ahead and anoint the Commanders as the best NFC East team,
which they very might be.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Here's what they have coming up, and tell me, just
off the top of your head, if you think it's
win or loss. Next Sunday they go forty miles up
by ninety five, they play the Ravens in Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
How is this game a noon game? This is not
the Sunday night football game. I'm gonna lean Baltimore. But hey,
you know every Baltimore is coming off that weird win
against Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Then this is a three to zero five game, they
host the Panthers. I hope they win that game. Okay,
then they have a Newon game at home against the Bears.
There you go, Jayden Daniels, killb Williams. You're gonna probably
Washington would probably be favored. But hey, Caleb looked a
lot better against Carolina this last Sunday. So who knows
where it will be at in two weeks.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
And then they and then they play at the Giants. Yeah,
when they're you're thinking at home.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I would just say this if I were completing that sentence,
I would say the Commanders are a real contender in
the East simply because of their schedule and the way
the East is shaken down. Now, do they still have
tough games up?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
They play the Steelers at home, they got to go
to Philly obviously, then they have the Cowboys coming in.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Then you know, then they got the Times come in.
They have to go to New Orleans.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
They have the Eagles at home, the Falcons at home,
and they finish on New Year's well, right after New
Year's Day, it's on the fifth when they finish at
Jerry World against the Cowy can you imagine fact comes
down to a playoff spot between those two or for
the NFC East.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Do you have any Commander fans in your life, Craig.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
When I grew up in North Carolina, my dad had
become a then Washington Redskins fan because it was the
closest NFL team in the early sixties. The Falcons didn't
come into existence in nineteen sixty six, and they were awful.
And it's about equal distant Greensboro is to both Washington,
d c.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
And to Atlanta.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
It's about, you know, five hours or so either way
to both. And Washington got good with George Allen. They
went to the Super Bowl and all that stuff. So
he but but I'll tell you the minute he moved
to Texas, he changed like that. He became a Cowboys fan. Yep, yep,
really did. I had my brothers. One of them kind
(06:20):
of liked him, but he was more of a Jets
fan because of Joe Amath. My oldest brother, second oldest
brother was a Packer fan and then became a Steeler fan,
and now he's kind of a Cowboys fan. And my
younger brother was always a Cowboys fan well, even when
we were growing up North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
And of course I was the god duck out being
a Rams fan.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
But but but I had people all around me who
were Washington fans. I did you know when they went
by Washington football team, one of the one of their
fans was Linda. She liked them because she liked the
name Washington football team. In fact, I even got her
a long sleeve T shirt that's a Washington football team
on it. Once they changed the Commanders that she's done
(07:01):
with them. That's why her eyes kind of lit up
when I told her about the brand new NHL team
in Salt Lake City and so moving up from Phoenix.
They're no longer the Phoenix Tidies. Aren't they going to
be called the Utah Hockey Club? She kind of got
excited about that.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
I have one Commander's fan in my life. This season.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
It's like if you have a friend who hasn't had
a girlfriend in like five years and he finally gets one,
He's like, oh, this, this is incredible. This is how
it is for Commanders fans because they have not been
good since what the RG three season that was twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yeah, and here's another reason why it's easy to against them.
They've had horrible, horrible despicable ownership. Despicable ownership. So finally
that stuff is being cleared off the books. But they've
played in a sewer. It's a terrible stadium. It aged
very quickly and not well at all. And you know
(07:52):
all the stories about what was it the human waste
draining all kind of stuff in this rain storms and
it was a mess. When Texas played Maryland Office, I
heard the stands were flooding, right, people, and the worst
broadcast booth I've ever worked in a bar none. Oh,
I'm told you hadn't been to Vanderbilt yet because it's
(08:15):
under construction, and you hadn't done a game in the
Orange Bowl. We haven't done a game there at hard Rock.
It's supposedly on the corner and low and really bad
and all that other kind of stuff. But you know whatever,
we'll see if that happens anyway. Yeah, it's interesting to
see how there's now there are some commanders. Hence we'll
(08:35):
see where it goes from here. All right, Up next,
we talked some baseball of the postseason variety with Geene Watson,
our MLB insider, on Sports Radio AM thirteen under the
zone of the Iart Radio app.
