(00:00):
Night. Happy, that's happy.Enter it on our station website now at
Fox Sports nine eighty dot com,WFX Troy, WGYFMHD two olbning W two
forty ec opening Fox Sports nine eightyninety five point nine. After back,
it's time for the Top four fourwith Levac and guz Heay. Time for

(00:24):
the four biggest stories in the worldof sports, brought by Mohawk Conda with
us going on the way to pleaseyou and the grand opening is coming up
Thursday. Gods, what's the fourthbiggest story? You? And I have
done this segment for a long timeunder different names. People have stolen it,
and the one thing I get alittle upset about is how people rank
these, how people figure out thetop stories of the day. Here's the

(00:46):
rule I've tried to follow. Whatwill you remember tonight? What will you
need to watch and listen to tonight? And what will you remember from the
day? So remember that what willyou remember from Monday, April fifteen,
twenty twenty four, a month fromnow, a year from now, and
what you should be aware of tonightand hopefully will answer some of these things
in these stories. Here for theTop four four. I know you're studying

(01:10):
for an exam. But I'm ready. It'll makes sense here in a second,
I swear maybe more than the second, though. Start report. DeVante
Adams on your Vegas Raiders Levak quote, if I wanted to be gone,
I'd be gone. There was talkback in February whether or not Defonte Adams
would be traded and the general managersaid he's a Raider. Beck, what
do you make of those comments thatDavante Adams said, if you wanted to

(01:30):
be gone, he'd be gone.And do you believe that or do you
think he's gonna be the most talkedabout name come next Thursday's NFL draft pre
coverage. I think you know whatI mean by that. I think he
I think he means what he says. He strikes me as that kind of
dude, because he could. Hecould make a lot of noise and he
could be on his way out inno time if you really really wanted to.

(01:55):
He doesn't have a ring, doeshe? He does not. I
believe he was a rookie. Hewas the fall of two to eleven when
he made his debut, and hewon fourteen twenty fourteen. He's just a
baby, So yeah, Fresno twentyeleven, twenty thirteen. So I could
see if I was him, Iwould be like, listen, no comment,

(02:17):
this is where I play. Maybehave the agent go around and go,
hey, look he does want toring or he he wanted Antonio appears
to be the head coach. Hewanted things the way they were going.
He had a little bit of arapport with Aidan O'Connell, and if my

(02:38):
thoughts are right, the Raiders aregoing to make a move up in this
draft to get another quarterback. Ithink he's I think he's completely I think
he's happy. Like I said allthat being said, would would I be
shocked if his agent was going aroundgoing you want him, you want him,
you want him? We can movehim. I can get him.
I can get him to you.Come on, what's the price? Is

(02:58):
he part of moving up? Ithink it's a closer team than we realize.
It is both the way they feelabout each other and how close they
are to being a winning team.I like a lot of the things you
said there. I will believe thatDevanta Adams wants to be a Raider.
When he says it, I shouldtake him at his word. And he's
a really good player, and Ithink there's a part of him that wants
to show people, Hey, Ican do this without Aaron Rodgers. I

(03:22):
can do this with different people.I put up the numbers to show you
guys that I can contribute to bebetter. But I did ask that question
for a reason. Even though rightnow all that seems to be true,
we know this happens every single year, especially for the last ten plus years,
when Draft Day rolls around. Inthe lead up to Draft Day,
there is gonna be some wild storythat breaks that everybody can't get enough of

(03:44):
that so and so is gonna gettraded. There's a huge story. Of
course, remember it was a donedeal that Aaron Rodgers was a Denver Bronco
that one year. Oh no,no, it's done. Aaron Rodgers a
Bronco. It's already hit. Didn'tthat didn't happen? Oh no, no,
Johnny Manziel is gonna be a cowboy. Kyler Murray's actually not gonna go
number one over. This happens everyyear Larry Tunsel and other athletes do to

(04:05):
themselves on Draft Day. But bedon't be shocked when it's Devant Adams is
gonna go to seven different NFL teamsnext Thursday, and again for me,
it just it comes down to whatyour quarterback room look like. How close
do you think you are? Becausewithout a quarterback room, they got pretty
close. If Antonio Pierce took overa game or two earlier, they would

(04:25):
have been a wildcard. We moveon to story number three, but before
this weekend ends, the NHL regularseasonal end some impactful games involving some New
York teams. Tonight, seven o'clock, puck drops as the Devils host the
Islanders. The Islanders continue to battlefor that playoff berth. The New York
Rangers, you want to talk aboutit feeling like the nineties? Who the
Rangers host the Senators tonight seven thirty. What a time to be a New

(04:49):
York sportsman, especially with these twoteams in the mix. Of fact,
the Rangers and Islanders are in twodifferent directions right now, but both teams
can be in contention and compete forStanley's Cup. But more so the Rangers,
I think getting a lot of love. They could be the best team
in hockey when it's all said anddone, and right now if they if
they get this w you get thosetwo points they secure the President's Cup.

(05:12):
That would be very, very big. And then it just comes down to
you know who you're gonna play.I know there's I know there's people out
there who would love to see themtake on the Islanders of the first round,
and I guess there's a way thatstill kind of happens. So can
you imagine Rangers Islanders first round,the Battle for New York right away?

(05:32):
Oh? Now, by the way, I should just do the easy math
here. If you're an Islander fan, simple and easy as this, you
win and it's over. Like youwin, You're in tonight. You gotta
three points clear, the capitals clear, the Penguins clear, the flyers,
simple and easy. Flyers can't catchyou. The other two can. But
it'll make your life a lot easier. Win tonight, Win tonight, Islanders,

(05:55):
that's what you gotta do. Let'smoving on story number two involving baseball
slit of games and this odd afternoonevening. What I mean by afternoon?
Of course, it was the bigday in Boston, the Boston Marathon Day.
President's Day is what they call itstill the back President Patriots Day,
thank you sorry, caught me offguard. And then they expect to me
be asked a question about my expertiseof Boston. I thought it was Patriots

(06:19):
Day slash President's Day. President's Daywas last month Patriots Day because of each
is a former Patriot. Throughout thefirst pitch as well, Rob Gronkowski,
if you haven't seen that, spikingthe baseball Red Sox get shut out six.
Nothing against the Guardians. Guardians playingsome good baseball, but other games
of note tonight include the New Yorkteams in action, the New York Yankees

(06:40):
heading to Toronto to take on theBlue Jays seven oh seven. First pitch
for that, with the New YorkMets hosting the red hot and very successful
Pittsburgh Pirates seven to ten. TherePirates took a few games from the Orioles,
and the Pirates are at NL CentralContender Junior. Even though you're a
Met fan, you're gonna be stuckcalling the Pirates that are pre season show,
so you'd be a Pirates fan forthe rest of the season. Astro's

(07:02):
Braves a little inner league match betweenone team heading towards the top of the
division, the other in the exactopposite direction. Lavac. When you hear
about these New York teams in particular, Yankees, Blue Jays Mets Pirates.
What do you make of these twomatchups? I mean, obviously the Yankees
Blue Jays Division. You took twoor three from them before chance to kind

(07:23):
of push them down good and deepinto the end of the division early in
the year. They are four gamesback. Maybe maybe push them a good
good seven games back, that'd befun. Mets. Look, it's this
is a team that everybody rode offthat I think it was a mistake to
write them off. They they've wonthree straight series. I think they've got
plenty of talent to be competitive.They just gotta believe in themselves a little

(07:46):
bit. They had to get outof town, now, can they Can
they keep this thing rolling while they'rehome? They got the Pirates. I
don't see why not, man,I really don't see why not. I
think the Mets are are an interestingteam, and we'll you to be all
year long. The Mets. Theinterest in the Mets going forward, I'm
with you. I think they're gonnabe interesting. The Pirates, I have
no clue. Like I wish Icould have like a strong take like we

(08:07):
had in our preseason, like thePirates have this this and this one.
We've done this before, like thePirates have probably for the last oh boy,
the one year they had McCutcheon andthey actually had games at P and
C Park, which is a beautifulpark, maybe the best in baseball.
Every time they're like not terrible.Oh the Pirates, they're surprised that people

(08:28):
they're in the contention. Maybe it'sbecause Pittsburgh is such a proud sports city.
Maybe it's because they're like not evenfunny bad. The Pirates still have
the record for the most consecutive losingseasons in the history of North American professional
sports, and it happened through thenineties. In the twenty ten decade,
I want to see them do wellbecause that fan base doesn't deserve it.

(08:48):
Seem to be that bad for thatlong, Softy, and this is Softy.
You just want to be bad foreverfifty years. The I guess cub
fans like, quite gosh, weknow how bad it is. Listen,
we all know. Listen, theserandom curses are out there. You don't
know what's causing. If the Billsgo ahead and just start ripping it up
this year, the Curse of O. J. Simpson is over. Story

(09:09):
Number one this game just moments ago. The Athletic is the first to report
it. Our guy Ryan on Twitterpassed along this news. The Athletic is
reporting these quotes from legendary New Yorkbroadcaster John Sterling that there is a scheduled
press conference for Friday where at thispress conference, John Sterling will announce his

(09:30):
plans for the future. John certainlyis eighty five years old. He's been
the voice of the Yankees for avery long time. How about since nineteen
eighty nine. Now he's not calledas many games this year. There's been
younger broadcasters taking it. Levec,what do you make of this story about
the Friday press conference on the wayand do you feel like it's gonna be
a Wolf of Wall Street Leonardo DiCapriomoment or he screams out, I'm not

(09:54):
going anywhere. No't he doesn't listen. We've I had the pleasure of speaking
to mister Sterling many times. Uh. He does not welcome these conversations unless
he has something to say. Likeyou for people who don't know that the
story, if you are blessed enoughto get his home phone number, his

(10:16):
cell phone, you call it randomly. He will not schedule. Hey,
you know, John, we're talkingto schedule an interview with you later in
the week. Nope, what youmean call me? If I answer,
I'll do it. If I don't, I won't. Okay, all right,
thanks, do you do you wantto go now? Nope? Hang
up? Okay, Uh, thenyou call him. We just call him.

(10:37):
We'd started like eleven thirty am,like whenever we were we could get
to a studio and get a andhe either answer he wouldn't, and then
the one like some days he answerand be like, well, I've had
my berries, I've had my swim. I need to go to the bank.
Call me in twenty minutes. Soyou twenty minutes on the dot.

(10:58):
You call him. Jeez, Iwish i'd never given you my phone number.
Okay, let's go and again likenot like mean, Like he's not
mean about it. It's just like, okay, you know, you're like,
let's do this whatever, Like evenwhen he says it's half playful,
so like saying that, I say, to make this point, he's not
doing a press conference for no reason. He's going to announce my opinion.

(11:24):
He's going to announce that he's takinga lighter role this year because of some
health constraints and that this will beit and he's gonna hang it up after
the season. I would say halfof your answer is right. No reports,
nobody's told me this. I wouldsay, he's just gonna be done
like now, like he's done.He's just gonna be done on Friday.
He's scheduled to not be there onFriday. He might be like, you

(11:46):
know what, I'm not even gonnafinish the season. I'm gonna let these
guys take over unless his health isreally bad. If his health is really
bad that I'm with you on that. But I can see him going.
Uh, there are some key gamesI would like to do this year.
I will do those. Aside fromthat, I'll be taking a major step
back, and Susan's in good hands, and and then I'll be done after

(12:09):
this year, just in a littlemore time with my berries. I've said
this before about John Sterling in comparisonto what the world is now from nineteen
eighty nine radio broadcaster to twenty twentyfour multimedia broadcaster. Show me somebody else
in a different market that just doesthis. Yeah, a radio voice who
rarely If I don't think I've everseen him do a TV game in the

(12:31):
last twenty five years. He isjust a radio voice. He did there
was a special one he did withIt might have been like Jeter's last game
or something he did one with MichaelKay. They did both, so they
were he was on like center stage. I was not talking about like host.
No no, no no. Itwas like him and k Okay together.
But it's rare. It's super rare, like in no other sport.

(12:52):
I know in the past he's doneother sports, but like just baseball,
just on the radio, Susan Wallman, not doing play by play, just
Tim talking. He is the lastof a breed of sports media, and
especially in New York voice eighty fiveyears old, like the West Coast has
Vin Scully and Vin Scully all thosethings they described. Was we thought going

(13:13):
to be the last one who didit like this, But this is the
East Coast version of Vin Scully.Now you can do who's a better broadcaster?
And this The thought is this guydid this until his mid eighties.
He is a voice familiar with Yankeefans. This is coming to an end.
Whether you love his style, don'tlike it, you find it corny
and hacky, or you find justthing too is he hasn't changed his style.
No, And then I love it. You know me, man,

(13:35):
I'm a big I'm a big fanof the home run nicknames and all that
stuff, and it's something we alldo it like, even the people who
hate it. Yeah, well heshould have said this. It's like you're
playing the game. You may hittea monopoly, but you just picked up
the race car. You did it. So yeah, he's he's special and
I think he hangs around. Ithink this year, I think, but

(13:56):
I think it'll be like a gamea week. He's not traveling, and
I think he's around just because there'sa chance they win it all this year
and he would love to he'd loveto be there one more time. I'm
glad you shared that John Sterling storybecause even like the story of trying to
track him down is so much betterthan the actual ten minute conversation. Like
I truthfully, and maybe Levac youremember, I have no idea what we

(14:20):
talked him about, obviously besides theYankees, duh. But like I couldn't
tell you what picture we broke downor what matchup, but who are there?
The story of getting him was farfunnier than that. Well, that
in his love of a boy.So it's like I could never say anything
on Erad that I wanted to say, but like, yeah, he's he's
specially he's he is a treasure.I don't know if I'll be able to

(14:43):
do anything like that when I'm inmy mid eighties. I don't know if
i'll be on plane with Earth.I'm sorry, I hate to do this
to you. We aren't that goodnow, we aren't as good as him
now. I guess I should havesaid doing anything professionally in my eighties,
okay, whether it be radio orI don't know what. There's nothing I
want to do. There's like ifyou if I'm working in my eighties,

(15:07):
I screwed up. I didn't savewell, all right, So I'll be
doing this in my eighties. Hopefullypeople are listing. But yeah, no,
I'm not. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not that dude. He's
that dude. He loves it,he lives for it. How about that

(21:48):
Am Fox Sports Radio to the dynastletter like next week, that hurt sound
like a drill? Oh man,So you I didn't fight you too much

(22:11):
on it, but I fought youa little bit on it. You thought
UFC three hundred completely overrated. Fridaysaid that, yeah, Friday, you
change your change your stance. Yes, they would, I would like to
it. I wanted to change itimmediately after the prelims started to air.
Because I'm watching the prelims. I'mlike, you know what. I know,

(22:33):
I wasn't gonna be into three hundred, but let me watch the prelims.
It's a Saturday night, kids arein bed, wife has their sisters
over. Let me go in theother room watching the UFC. So I
see the first fight with Holly Holmand Kayla Harrison. I'm like, you
know what, Holly Home at plusthree fifty. I believe she went off
it, maybe even higher plus orange. I'm like, gosh, do I
throw some money on this fight rightnow? Like, no, no,

(22:53):
no, I don't want to bet. Holly Holme is an underdog because we
saw what happened when she did withRonda Kayla Harrison. She's the future.
I think everyone knows that she waspumped up to be. There was a
reason she got Holly Home on theundercard because she is so decorated and she
is finally making She made her UFCdebut. She's that good. That's the
problem. I forgot who she wasbased on just her name and a little

(23:18):
headshot. Like if I had ifI had seen Wayans, which I didn't
get a chance to see, Iwould have been like, oh, I've
been waiting to see this and like, to your point, we know Holly
Holm can fight like which Holly Holm? Were we getting like? I would
have been so much more into thatfight where I literally walked away for a

(23:38):
little bit, came back and itwas about to start, and I'm like,
I didn't know that was who thatwas. That's a bad woman.
That's a very bad woman. Thereare two people I think in the history
of the last maybe even the historyof the UFC, I'll even go back
that far that really made bad careerdecisions for what they did in the ocagaon

(23:59):
not all off like John Jones,John jo This is a differentscussion I'm talking
about like booking fights. Kabeeb andMcGregor should have had a second fight and
could have made a ton of moneyin the rematch. But he's like,
why would I fight him again?I don't need to. I already beat
him. I don't need to.I'm done fighting. No, But Holly
Holmes should have waited. Holly Holmesshould have done the rematch with Ronda Rowsey

(24:21):
Rowsey home too, and made aton of money. She didn't do that.
I think her whole career took adifferent path after that. How much
money she lost in that uh sterlingwho wanted to fight next our old producer,
our old intern, Eric Hanneman.I said, what's your best play
of the night, and gave methat one. So I cashed that ticket.
N I told you that bon Nickelwould be the star of the night.

(24:42):
There's my first bad play of thenight, because that was about as
boring as it gets. That wasthe exact opposite of what the UFC wanted.
I'm not sure if you saw thefootage of the VAC, but there's
a cut that's got about like ahalf a million views that after bon Nickel
wanted the second round, I betfirst round finish, So that cost me
some money. That Dana White gaveit an earful, like forty five seconds.

(25:06):
You can't hear what Dana White's saying, but you have an idea of
Okay, if Dana White's pulling youout after a win and giving you an
earfold, that might have been ahey enough with the wrestling. You're supposed
to be the future. You're supposedto be the guy. So that happened.
But I think the reason he broughtthis up is because the two final
fights, Oh my god, well, listen, there was there was good

(25:27):
fights throughout the cart but yes,like that that whole I mean, come
on, just come on. Thatwas three. I mean because the knockout
for uh, for Max Holloway overon Justin Gishie was something. I was
insane, the Max Holloway knockout whenI saw that the next morning, I

(25:49):
don't know if I shared it withyou or texted you. I wanted to
be like, h man, Iwas wrong. This is one of the
great knockouts in the history of theUFC because of the names involved, the
event. It happened, the flash, It happened with the fact that Max
Holloway calls him out and says,get in the center with me and let's
go toe to toe. Let's battle, and he knocks them out at four

(26:11):
fifty nine in the fifth. Allyou needed was two more punches to stay
up and you're going to the cards. Ko Gainschee had four fifty nine with
that hit. That is one ofthe most impressive knockouts. I want to
say it's not a title fight,but the BMF title is a title.
They treated as such. Yeah,I mean, it's it's become a title
like when you when you think aboutthe years of boxing where just a new

(26:34):
three letter title would show up onpeople's shoulders. It was like, what
what is that one? Uh?That's the Uh yeah, it's that's the
ECT title, et cetera. Yeah, like it matters because people care about
it. If you're gonna have aBMF title and I can't say it,
so you got to look it up, that's who should win it for that
type of finish. You can saythat, yes, Ca mofo, but

(27:00):
it's you if it's kind of likewhat I was what I was saying to
you on Friday, like this isthe best way to get the guys who
you know, kind of like thevideo game fights where listen, I'd love
to see Gaichie versus Holloway one timeand make sure they care because because Justin

(27:22):
Gaichie is one of those dudes.If he doesn't care, he's getting smoked.
When he fought Normarka Madoff, hehad it in his head before then
he was he's my friend and he'sbetter than me. He didn't even he
did not put a near the efforthe did when he fought Connor or anybody
else. When he fought nermarka Madeoff. So you you know this belt matters.
People care about it. They don'twant to they don't want to be

(27:45):
called a non bad you know.So you get the real effort out of
these great fighters that you've been waitingto see. And now I don't really
care if they're the ones who defendit or if they just go, hey,
make another belt, you know,and we get the you know,
Jake gillen, ha Holivers, ConnorMcGregor or the rematch from Roadhouse. I'm
ready McGregor is fighting, by theway, coming up soon. Right.

(28:11):
That was the announcement that Dana Whitesaid in a press conference when someone threw
him a crumpled up piece of paper, and I'm not exaggerating. He read
it off a crumpled up piece ofpaper in the press conference. Oh yeah,
McGregor claims he's coming back. Wedidn't say the main event, by
the way, the knockout after HerbDean tries to step in. Oh no,
it's a low bloke get away fromme and then knocks him out cold,
knocks out Hill all stuff. Allright, All right, I was

(28:33):
wrong about you UFC three hundred greatfinishes. It was. It was a
hell of a card that I couldsee where again, imagine if we had
really been paying attention and like,and I know we're not. It's sports
talk one on one. You knoweverything. I knew everything. I just
I didn't think it'd be that good. I would have been so into so

(28:55):
many more, like like the KaylaHarrison thing. Man, jeez, they
said something about her back. They'relike, look at her back? Is
that is that such and such likea man, a male athlete. I'm
like, maybe that that woman that'sa bad, bad woman. And I
know you said, like she tookthe weird path and whatever. She ain't
going anywhere right right away. She'sgonna end up with a belt. And

(29:17):
you think the women's divisions. Now, there was at one point zero women's
titles, Dana White went on recordsand there never will be. Then there
was one. Now there's four.Now there's four different divisions. You can
grab a belt and if you're awoman fighter in the UFC, right,
there'll never be a woman fighter inthe UFC. We can make how much
we're ready to have at least onesixteen weight classes whatever, whatever, you

(29:38):
guys want bigger audiences, Okay,let's we're gonna keep it going. Whatever.
Who's who's uh dogs, No,we can't do that. That's weird.
No, okay, I want togo back to something you said.
Besides that, that's exactly what dadawait did uh? You sound like you're
doubting that the McGregor Chandler fight's gonnahappen in Vegas in June. Do you
think it's not gonna happen? Notright with McGregor. Something's not right with

(30:02):
McGregor. You think it's stuff thatgoes into his nose. I think I
don't think that helped. But Iwill also say that that Chandler's a He's
a bad boy. Chandler's a nightmarefor guys who want to ease back into
fighting, because Chandler is more thanhappy to get knocked out. If it
means he gets a chance to knockyou out in the first minute, he

(30:22):
will walk right into a straight right. No big deal is what it is.
Happened the way it happened, ifit means he gets a chance to
unload on you at least once inthe first minute. And let me clarify
something. I know I made thenose joke there. There's just some videos
online of Connor McGregor being a littlebit more excited than most people would be.
So people are wondering if Connor hasbeen doing things out if you are
so sensitive that you you don't thinkthere's a chance con McGregor is doing coke.

(30:47):
I just don't think that's stair toaccused somebody of that without there being
But if you've watched the videos anddon't think that, I can't help you,
Okay, medicinal listen, I'm gonnasay it right now. Connor McGregor
does not do co He just likesthe way it smells. All right,
let me talk to you about investingwhat thing Perth McGregor. By the way,

(31:10):
only one win in the UFC sincetwenty sixteen since that Foight of the
Garden, so one win since then. I wish he was a vetter actor.
I was so excited for him inthat the New Roadhouse. He was
Okay, he wasn't great, buthe's I'm telling you, dude, he's
living. He's living an exciting life. Let's put how's that is that?
Can we say that? Yeah?I think I mean we already said what
it was. Anyways, Yeah,Drew prescottis you're going to talk about it

(31:34):
right listen, you want to talkabout an exciting life. How about knowing
that you have a good plan togrow your financial wellbeing. You have a
good plan in front of you toattack the stock market. Maybe everyone has
gone, oh, you need lifeinsurance and you're like, I just don't
feel like this part of my plan. How about have you sitting down and
having a conversation with a wealth investmentmanager who is going to actually hear you

(31:56):
out, and then we'll legitimately tellyou like, hey, I'm not the
guy for you. If he's notthe guy for you, like that's I
don't think that's gonna be the case, because I think you're gonna sit down
with Drew and just like I didn't, just like gods did, go that's
a good guy. That's somebody thatI trusted to come up with the plans.
Nothing is full proof in the worldof you know, investing, Like,
once you start investing, anything canhappen. But if you don't have

(32:20):
a solid plan, more likely thannot, nothing good is gonna come of
it. Get a solid plan togetherwith somebody you can trust, somebody you
can work with, somebody who's gonnawork with you. That's Drew Prescott,
go to Prescott PW dot com.Set up that meeting. Get together today.
Me I might invest in the yankyou sign. I don't know,
I might might. Oh Drew isnot listening. We got our plan to

(32:43):
day coming up next. Right here, it's Fox Sports and nine eighty.
We have troubles and big delays onthe north down side of seven eighty seven
where jamdub from exit seven up towardsanks at nine. That's all because of
an accident. They have moved itover to the left shoulder, so at
least all lanes are now open.It's Levak and Guzz on ninety five nine
Fox Sports Radio. Play the Dayis? Is that? What time?

(33:07):
What time is it? Who amI play the Day? Play the Day?
Play of the Day? Play Dayis brought to you by Mohawks Chevrolet.
Do you gotther Let's drive at MawkChevy where they always go out of
their way to please you. Wellhave Actually we have some like fancy music
going forward for the play of theday, like Dan Patrick does stat of
the Day. Maybe some wild imagingI should do. Here's to the radio

(33:28):
term for that. Maybe yeah,maybe our guy Tristan or Junior do some
imaging for the play of the day'ssegment. Uh yeah, it's yeah.
I mean Tristan's impressive. He's verygood. And I'm not just saying that
because he scares me. So seewhat he wants to do. I'm down.
I think to hear what he has. You know what I thought about
it. I don't want to doit any what why because sometimes our play

(33:50):
of the day could take up thewhole segment. Sometimes it's only a few
minutes, but I never know whenwe're gonna give it, Like, for
instance, before we get to ourplay of the day, I think you
and I have almost gone two hourson the show. Can we talk about
Hopefully he's listening to the Cardinal.You and I were a guest this past
Saturday on a very popular podcast herelocally. No credentials required this past Saturday
morning. Thank you to Ryan forfeaturing us as guest. But I have

(34:14):
a confession to make. Yeah,yeah, I'm waiting for this one.
Yeah, I want to I wantto know. We still haven't talked about
how this all transpired. I havedone. I've been very fortunate to be
asked a guest on radio shows andpodcasts and news hits. You and I
U see the Upstate Sports Sedge onCBS six. I take pride. I
feel like I'm a Tom Brennan givingan apology. I take pride, and
what I've done is a long flyball to cast the autos. I have

(34:37):
never been late ever to a podcasthit, to a radio hit to it.
I not only was I late onSaturday, I showed up twenty minutes
late and then tried blaming Ryan.I didn't get a link. I didn't
get Do you look at your email? Guys? Yeah, so we we
were. It was Ry's been askingus to be on the show forever.

(35:00):
I used to be on it oncein a while. It's the first time
I've done the show with Dustin there. You know, good show, fun
guys. They do a lot ofwork. They got a lot of a
lot of effort into it. God'slike one percent in blah blah blah.
We're going nothing, nothing, nothing. We'll finally just text you, Yeah,

(35:20):
where you at? Dude? Oh? I never have the look.
I'm like, dude. He emailedit, and I was like, I
was about to just destroy Ryan fornot emailing you, because I couldn't believe
that Tommy Corporate didn't look at hisemail. Sure enough, Oh, there
it is, and then like boom, I hear that, Like Ryan goes
h here comes Gazi Bear and thenlike here's here's where. And there's a

(35:42):
lot that happens between these two stories. But I feel like I need to
tell a story. I didn't realizewe were gonna be on like the whole
time. Like I knew that theywanted to ask about the Firebirds. I
knew they wanted to ask about somelocal stuff. I knew whatever, they
like to play with you and I, because we do this show, guys
comes on twenty plus mins late,talks for maybe thirty minutes if even,

(36:05):
and they goes, I gotta go, and then gets off. And by
the way, your connection was terriblethe entire time, almost as bad as
Ryan's Mike. Ryans Mike started breakingduring it. I'm sitting there, I'm
like, wait, that's an option. I could have laughed. I know,
like, because I had to go. I had some some important family
stuff I had to do that.We got to we you know, we
still, everything got done, butwe got too a little late because I
didn't want to leave. Guys,just like literally, like everybody, I

(36:28):
me more portant than the rest ofyou, but m off, I'm out,
and then I'm stuck there with theother guys going uh yeah, so
we uh we wrapping or what?But so what I what I've learned to
do, though, is the cardinalis a very nice guy. So what
I'll do is I just my jokesa little racier, you know, a
little a little more dangerous, andthen he'll move the show along a little

(36:50):
faster. So when his mic wasbreaking, it was like, I'm like,
dude, I'm not great at aborigine, but I believe you just asked
what I thought about the Yankees comefrom behind victory the other day, and
like he's just like, uh uhno ah. I'm like, yeah,
that's right. He as well,we probably should wrap. I pecked it
all. If you want to listenagain, no credentials required online. I

(37:14):
packed all my unprofessional etiquette into justone podcast hit twenty minutes late. Decided
when I was going to leave thepodcast. At one point, I just
decided, I don't think insults theright term, but just get way too
creative with one of the sponsors.I tried sniffing the coffee during one of
the reads, got way too closeto the camera. Uh, there was
a seal involved at one point.I guess there's an HRC in playing against

(37:37):
me. So you tried to sniffa seal. It was weird. If
you want to hear the sniffing everythinglately, is that your thing? No,
say you're jam No, it's justyou know you Gady's got a kink.
You can tell us, we're allthere's nobody here. It's just us.
Gotta make sure all the senses arestaying good, you know, test
them out a little bit. Itwas weird because you tried it so far
in the last couple weeks. Youtried to sniff Jerry McNamara, Well he

(37:59):
hasn't been here yet, which Imean again I wonder why. And then
the poor seal that you tried tosniff on the podcast. The coffee it
was I hadn't backed up yet.It was the coffee I was trying to
smell, not the seal. SoI'm again I apologize publicly to Ryan.
I was very unprofessional. I wouldsay my takes were very strong though.
I had a strong Arizona coyote dippin'dots take that any that was a strong

(38:24):
take I had. So it wasn'tabout all that You closed on that too,
You're like you did that, youdid the whole. I think that
the Coyotes are basically stuck in thenineties and I gotta go peace, you're
out. The X Games were involved, all good plas. So again,
if you want listen to, nocredentials required. We appreciate Ryan. But

(38:45):
if you're a local podcast host outthere, Levac and I will come in
your podcast. I will be moreprofessional. We love supporting local media members
and more radio shows you have toget clearance for. I don't know why
you want to be on any otherradio show, but the great ones that
are under this umbrella. iHeartMedia.Yeah, I'll do. I'll do any
of them that like might sell ticketsfor the firewords like that's right, I'm
easy like that, or or ifyou provide me like if you like that's

(39:08):
the one thing I will say.If you have a sponsor, I feel
like I should get some of that, but not the money. Not the
money, but like if you havea coffee sponsor, I like coffee.
Why did I get coffee? Now? Wait a second. We have many
a sponsor here on the show,and we appreciate every single one of our
sponsors. You know, if youstart setting that precedent of like you should

(39:30):
get something for coming on the show, we would have to then return the
favorite of people who are guests onthis show, like Closer by the Way.
Great job on the Almni Patroons broadcastthis past weekend. Well done,
Brian Mariano. Great job. Igave him some C four, maybe not
through amount he had wanted, butlike, you have to give C force
to people. Hold on, doI have to? You're gonna make me
be this guy? Okay? Allright, I don't know what I'm doing.

(39:52):
What happened in here? Shot tothe bad guy? All right,
I'll do it. Uh. Peoplepay to be on this show. People
like pay good money to be onthis show. Like guests pay to be
on this show. You know,nobody pays to be on that. We
should get paid to be on that. It's you gotta know your level in

(40:15):
life, my friend. You gottalike you know, that's a good They
do a good job. I'm notmad at them at all. They do
a very good job. But youknow, come on, yeah, well,
team President Afternoon Drive host, uhNew York State Broadcaster winner. Some
people say, not me, Ishould be in the New York State Broacaster
Hall of Fame. I should notbe uh you know, I should not

(40:37):
be put out without some kind ofcompensation remediation. Just to remind you,
I was paid to be on thatpodcast, and we actually both right now
you mentioned it actually after I ranno, we do, like, I
know that's the right. You negotiatedsixty nine cents. I did not.
I did not negotiate that rate.That was that was you, No,

(40:58):
but it was it was a goodtime, and yeah, that's check it
out. I I do like doingthe podcast because it is a little different,
like there's there's obviously there's less rules. There's different rules. But as
you, like you've said this beforefor people come on here, like you're
a guest, we'll treat you assuch. So like if I'm a guest
on your show, I don't wanna. I'm not gonna bill Bury you like,

(41:19):
and I know it's Bill Burr's routinenow, like Bill Burr's got to
the point where he's almost trying toget you to hang up on him.
I'm not gonna do that to youunless you're rude to me. But like
I am like gonna say what Iwant to say, Like, I you
know, there's a couple of thingsI wanted stories I want to tell that
I knew Ryan was blushing. Dustinseemed okay. Dustin, Uh, he's

(41:42):
still got new guy thing going whereyou're afraid to go too far in on
anything where he like he wanted tosay screw OJ but he couldn't. He's
like, well, you know hedid. It was running back and people
and then you know he was notguilty here, but he was guilty here.
And I'm like, then then wehad already told the story about Wade
Boggs, I guess like one hundredand seven beers on a cross country flight,

(42:05):
to which I said, like,dude, I would do that if
you said I could whiz at hisfinal resting place. Because against O J,
it's a double He's a he's amurderer, he's a wife beater,
he's you know, he's what I'mlike, you don't have to be there's
certain people you don't have to benice to, and that's on my list.
I also said one other comparison thatthey definitely didn't like, but I'm
not gonna do it here. Ismoke about a small Germanman who was an

(42:30):
artist on top of being evil.You know, it's just like I don't
respect his art either. Just kindof get a painter who did the screamer.
I believe it was the screamer.The scream, The scream is the
is the famous picture. Now that'sa movie. No, no, it's
but it's the mass the scream mask, scream is the picture. Screamers,
what you get? You do toomuch? Genesee cremail. That's that's they're

(42:52):
they're both different. The thinker andthen the scream. You're right, the
thinker is us. You is youtry to hold on into the toilet after
Sorry, dude, I'm telling youright now, I'm listen. I've done
my time. I like me agood Genesee. Once in a while,
cream melt no no no, no, cream is bye bad. Also one
other shout out Siena lacrosse the men'steam. Shout out to coach Gleeson in

(43:14):
that squad. How about the momentthey had over the weekend scoring four goals
in fifty seconds forty seven. Whata finish shout out to Siena men's lacrosse.
We might have to get coach Gleesonback on the show with telling him,
yeah, he was one of ourhe was our first guest on the
Fox Sports radio side. His teamis battling for a conference championship. They're
gonna have opportunity maybe to punch theticket to the NC double as. It

(43:36):
has been an interesting time in Sienalacrosse because they've gotten so close. They
were the uh preseason favorite last year. People really I don't know, maybe
they'll be good. This has beenan interesting season. So shout out to
Sanna making national headlines for that comebackover the weekend. It's you know,
there's there's times that like regardless ofwhat's happening, like on the field,
you can look like we're lucky enoughto know some of these people like okay,

(43:59):
you have right coach, Like heis the right guy. So like
to see him get get his flowerson Sports Center for the greatest comeback of
the weekend. That was awesome likethat it was it was, it was
awesome, And it was like,man, it wasn't that cold, Like
my fat bucket is south there andwatched that game, you know what I
mean, Like it's just like,ah, I could have went to a

(44:20):
game I haven't cold, very delicate. But don't do you ever feel guilty
of some of the games we don'tgo to. Yes, and like obviously
you have the kids that you know, I have six freaking jobs. But
at the same time, like thatwas one where it's like, man got
to get to a game. Can'tsupport our guy because he deserves it.
So that that being said, Uh, what else? What else did I

(44:43):
want to? Oh? Did yousee Sion Wine this weekend? I'm just
kind of just kind of plowing throughit. I would say, I know
a lot of people have become antiSaturn and It Live. I would say
that's about as good as an episode. We have a top five list coming
up later on in the show,but if you had to rank the top
five set Up Night Lives from likethe last ten years, maybe that's on
the list. There are multiple laughout loud sketches from Saturday Night Live,

(45:08):
and there was I know, likethere's rumors that Laura Michaels hates it when
they break, but some of themwhen they broke, it was so perfect
be with some but head scheduled talkingabout it clear that nobody nobody saw them
like post makeup because every time somebodylooked at uh, I can't think of
the castmember with the cast member andRyan Reynolds. Reynolds Ryan Heidie Gardner was

(45:31):
cracking up. Yeah yeah, Imean every time anybody looked over there,
it's like, oh my god,like they're dying. That was It was
awesome. It was It was areally good show. But the my favorite
favorite moment. And I've been onthe fence about Caitlin Clark because I just
don't know who she is. Like, if your dad has to yell you
from the stands to stop crying,there's a chance, or stop complaining of
the rafts, there's a chance you'rea little spoiled. But she came in

(45:54):
a weekend update and they Michael MichaelChack Michael Ja was making fun of her,
and you go, they said,you know, they're gonna retire the
jersey, so she wear an apronor something like. Oh, so like
they bring her out and she doesthe bit where she wrote the jokes and
she's a little quick. She lookedquick to like jump on everything. But

(46:15):
the fact that she stood and deliveredand all that and then gave him an
autographed apron, I was like,I'm I'm impressed. With her like that
was impressive. Like when you whenyou can turn the joke and still be
part of the joke, that's reallyreally cool. And I will I swear
to all that is holy if Iever get my hands on an autograph Kaitlyn

(46:36):
Clark apron. It's going on mywall. That's I mean, that's kind
of that's a memorabilia. Nobody's gotno right next to the Howie Long jersey
and the and the Bo Jackson helmet. It's going right up. She was
funny, she was good. Shehad like the big Nike jacket that people
she got the wait, what's KaitlynClark wearing? So now she's driving up
the prices? She was funny,got the w NBA promoted. That's about

(46:58):
it. Perfect is a hit youcan you on Saturday A Live? Absolutely,
I was, I was impressed.I liked her a lot on that
and then the only other thing Igot from the weekend. Since we're doing
all this before we do the pick, and I don't know if I have
time anywhere else. All the picturespopping up of Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift
at Coachell and everything, is therea point where this gets old? For

(47:19):
everybody, because I'm over it.I don't need to see them anymore.
I thought they were on vacation.Yeah, it's they're gajillionaires. But like,
are we over it though? Canwe all just move on now?
Like, oh my god, they'redating? Yeah, No, that's been
going on. That's happened. Weknow that one got to get those clicks,
gotta get those likes, gotta shareit on the Gram. No,
I don't think we're I think we'refar from over. I'm a little surprised

(47:43):
Kelsey didn't retire. I'm a littlesurprised he didn't say, you know what,
I'm good hit by that new house. I guess he had to get
the new house. He's with TaylorSwift. He's done Saturday Live before.
It's not much left for this guyto accomplished. So maybe maybe it's in
like two months he's like, youknow what, training camp or Taylor Swift.
I actually am going to retire.Sorry, everybody, All right,
pop with the player. They broughtto you by Mohawks Chevrolet Together. Let's

(48:05):
rive at Malwoch Chevaley. They alwaysbrought o their way to please you.
What do you got there at GoziBear? I love this play tonight.
I really like it. By theway, little heads up play. I
already know my play for Tuesday,and I already know I played for later
in the week. Vlad Guerrero Juniorsmy dinger play this week. But I'll
tell you what game it is.I'm gonna call my shot later this week.
Angels raise. It's a six fiftystart. The Rays just had their
Hall of Fame ceremony over the weekend. It's another home game Tropic Cana Field.

(48:29):
I bring that up because they mightactually have fans coming up. What
an actual support, But that doesn'tmatter. One of my new favorite teams
the roote were obviously I love theOrioles, but I like the Angels this
year because they're a half game outof first place with everything that's gone on
for that franchise. Patrick Sandoval,not Pablo. Patrick Sandoval's on the mound
tonight. Give me the Angels plusone forty against the Rays. Even when

(48:52):
the Rays have fans, they mightlose. Even when the Angels don't have
Otani, they might win. Talkabout a bizarre baseball game. I want
weird. Give me one of thosethings hit the catwalk tonight. The weirdest
game on the schedule is Angels Rays. Give me the Angels just a flat
out plus one forty money line playtonight. I am going to I'm gonna

(49:13):
I think I like the idea ofthe pint straight parlay, so I think
I'm gonna keep this one going.I'm gonna keep doing the pin straight parlay.
So this is a plus three ohfive Yankees money line. Judge Soto
to get hits each and then alternatestrikeouts Luis Hill five plus strikeouts. That's

(49:34):
what that's That's what I'm doing.I'm rolling with that. I like it.
I feel strong. I feel strong. I think I can get this
done. So that's that's where I'mat for my play of the day again
thanks to bok Ever let NBA playoffpicture. Let's let's dig a little bit.
Let's see. I mean, obviouslymy main focus is the eastern side.
Let's see if we can do acouple seconds on the western side of

(49:55):
the NBA Playoff bracket. But first, let me talk to you about the
Integrat Sleep Center in Boston, SPAwith my good friend doctor Fred Dureer.

which means he's a dentist that focuseson overall well being. But it
turns out he's much more than that. He's also a Diplomat of Dental Sleep

Medicine. He has taken the classes, the time and learned enough to be
given the title a Diplomat of DentalSleep Medicine. So when everybody else goes,
