Episode Transcript

(00:00):
It's Lovak and Gaze on the Voiceof the Capitol Regions sports fan Fox Sports
ninety five to nine and nine eightyyou. Are you ever heard the term
reversal of fortune? I have?But have you heard it pertaining to the
world of competitive eating? Yes,I have. I'm a big fan of
the hot Tuggeting contest and I knowexactly what it is. But you listening,

(00:20):
whether that's on the iHeart app orninety five nine nine eighty one oh
three one dash HG two driving aroundthe Capitol Region, you may not know,
but Levac knows. It means youpuked in that, but it also
but now it has a second meeting, I meaning no, because there's a
chance that there's been a reversal offortune. As far as American hero Joseph

(00:43):
Chestnut competing in the July fourth Nathan'sfamous hot dogging contest, really, uh
TMZ Sports is reporting that they havebeen in contact with Major League Eating mL
E, and the mL has saidthat we are keeping the door open for
mister Chestnut that if he has infact inked a deal with a vegan hot

(01:07):
dog and non that's a hot dognot made by Nathan's, he cannot compete,
but if anything were to change onJoey's side, we would open the
doors glowingly to the extent of ifhe did sign the deal and here's the
deal. Second the deal runs out, he's welcome back in the MLA.
That's how much they love Joey Chestnut. Have you seen Joey Chestnut's post on

(01:32):
Xo's He's on Twitter at Joey Jaws. This post has eight point nine million
views, one view for every hotdog he's eating this summer. And that's
even more impressive. Joey Chestnut hasabout sixty seven thousand followers. The fact
that he posted almost nine million bythe time the podcast audience listened to it
is probably closer to ten million atJoey Jaw. As a statement, Joey

(01:53):
Chestnut on social media quote, Iwas gutted to learn from the media that
after nineteen I'm banned from the Nathan'sJuly fourth Hot Douggning contest. I love
competing in that event. I lovecelebrating America with my fans all over this
great country on the fourth, andI've been training to defend my title.

(02:14):
To set the record straight, Ido not have a contract with M and
Lee or Nathan's and they are lookingto change the rules from past years as
it relates to other partners I canwork with. This is apparently the basis
on which I'm being banned, andit does it impact the July fourth event.
Sadly, this is a decision Nathan'shad made, sorr League eating or

(02:34):
making, and it will deprive thegreat fans of the holidays usual joint entertainment.
To my fans, I love youand appreciate you. Rest assured that
you'll see me eat again soon.Stay hungry well. From Joey Jaws on
Twitter, I read a word fora word that's an American hero. Are

(02:55):
you laughing at him? Back?But I happened like like like Muhammad Ali
when when he was fighting with theyou know, being drafted and he didn't
couldn't box his like I imagine ifhe was on Twitter, actually where the
hell, like you know, onthe telegram back then, it would have

(03:19):
been like it would be something justlike this, you will see me box
again, I thought, you will, you will see me I will eat
again. Stay hungry. She mighthe didn't have like we didn't have the
Twisted Sister songs. Stay hungry,cute up. I thought hungry, Oh
about the founding Fathers? Isn't thatwhat Frank? Should? I read it

(03:44):
again with God's bless the air,hunting rest his shirt. I will eat
again, stay hungry. I thinklike we should read it back and do
a shot every time there's like afood reference of some in there. I
was gutted, do a shot tolearn from the media. Nineteen years I've

(04:05):
been battening from Nathan Shid Live Fullof Hot Dog eating contest. I love
competing in that event. I lovecelebrating them, mad with the fans all
over this great country. I'm thefourth. I've been training to defend my
title. Like I I want tosee the eighties music montage of Joey Chestnut

(04:26):
training to eat seventy hot dogs inten minutes. It's just like it starts
like because they always start like youdon't know what you're doing, right,
Like like Rocky's chasing the chicken.He's falling on himself, but you hear
the music I the Tigers playing inthe background, and by the end he's
just he's able to catch the chickenwith like his pinky and just running around
them. In the beginning, likechest on his one hot he's like a

(04:49):
cocktail weening starts throwing up everywhere.By the end, he's just like whole
pad. He's like juggling hot dogsand he's sucking him down like an an
say us say picture of Kobyashi onthe wall. He just crumbles it up.
Uh, all right, So itsounds personal, though it does.

(05:11):
There's there's literal beef on this wholething. After hearing the Chestnunt tweet,
do you think it's more staged orless staged? Because I read that his
grammar's terrible. Clean it up alittle bit. I don't know if he
knows apostrophes exist, but I don'twhen you're putting out a statement about hot
dog, you do you don't knowhow professional it needs to be. That's
maybe, but you can't sound likea Wiener. No, you gotta really,

(05:34):
you gotta be the big dog hasput potentially professionally put your buns on
the line. Has the Major LeagueEating Federation Corporation league hit rough times and
they really need that sponsorship, liketo the point they're like, look,
we're either taking Nathan's money or we'retaking Joey Chestnunt. We have to take

(05:54):
the money, Joey, we haveto take the money for this. Well,
I mean it's it's it is,it's Nancy. See here's the here's
the question. Right, So whenevereverybody goes out there, they all wear
a Nathan's T shirt. Can hewear the Nathan's T shirt if he has
to deal with what is it?It's like beyond or one of those I
don't even know who it is whoevermakes the fake Wieners, Which about time

(06:15):
somebody made fake Wieners. Women havehad the rights all the way. So
like if he if he was gonnatry and show up and wear like a
different brand ring that stuff, likethe comparison that I've read and heard and
and I try, and I knowhow serious it is because of what we
do. But literally someone said thiswould be like, this would be like

(06:40):
Michael Jordan deciding he was gonna wearRebox like and like, and you go
like, because of what we do, we know how sponsorships work, Like
I have an amazing relationship with MohawkChevrolet. I would never you wouldn't.
You wouldn't catch me going I reallylike Guzlowski Ford though, like I just
I wouldn't because this is I knowmy job like my job. The reason

(07:00):
they want me to do it isI stay. I'm in love with the
product, and I love talking aboutthe product. You actually use it,
you endorse it for a reason,it's in your everyday life. Any one
of my friends who goes, Ineed to ride, I'm like, you
gotta go to the malk Chevrolet.And if they say they're going somewhere else,
I'd call them more. They're outof my house because they make bad
decisions. You're wearing Elevation ten thousandgear. I'm wearing I'm Lily and David.

(07:21):
Find you in their wedding band rightnow? Yeah, we live the
brands now again. If you wentyou know all, but you know Lily
Dame was my favorite. But LevacJewelers has been doing a good deal lately.
Like you would lose your you wouldlose it. You would lose that
deal. Jeff Gordon. The reasonJeff Gordon had such a big deal with
Pepsi. He was originally a CocaCola driver. They did like an embedded

(07:41):
where they went and drove around withhim and interviewed him and then the drive
thy he goes, I'll just I'llhave a pepsi. It's fine, I
know, like you can't say thatand that like pepsi coke was like get
out. Pepsi was like come onin, Like nobody was talking about pepsi
in the NASCAR world. Like brandingis important, you know it, it's
part of the deal. It's athletes, hot dog eaters. But he I

(08:05):
find it difficult to believe. AndI guess maybe there's data out there that
says it different. If Nathan's islosing business to have someone it's like Hebrew
National Franks or or Ballpark or somethinglike that. I highly doubt there's a
lot of people going. You know, I was gonna get a big old
pack of those all beef Nathan Frankswith throwing the grill this forth. But

(08:26):
since Joseph Chestnut says I should havevegan wieners, get some of them,
Get some of them, plant dogieson the grill, honey, impossible foods
is the brand of representing yes tothat gros. It's impossible to get me
to actually choose those over meat.That's what it is. There are different
ways to market a brand and promotea business and everything else. This seems

(08:48):
to be one of the more difficultones as you just laid out the scenario
of you're shopping this summer for somethingand you see Impossible food hot dogs,
and your mom or your dad,or your kids or somebody in your life
says, wait, stop the grocerycart. That's the one Joey Chesta pounds
down. We must eat those likehim today. Like, eh, well,
here's all right, let me askyou to I didn't even. I

(09:09):
forgot he had an exicount like Iforgot. So if he's if he was
willing to go to Nathan's and inhis contract with Impossible, he could still
wear the Nathan shirt. Do thewhole thing. Isn't this putting a ton
of attention on Impossible that none ofus would have known about? Yes,
I never would have known that Impossiblehad hot dogs, like I never.

(09:31):
I just I wouldn't have been Idon't. And you know what, I've
decided vegan veggie plant, non meathot dogs. And I know it's funny
because it's like a lot of hotdogs, you don't know what's in them,
at least these ones. You kindof have an idea. If you
want to call those glazzies, that'sfine, all right. I feel like
if you're if you're eating a veganhot dog, you probably Yeah, a

(09:54):
glizzy in your mouth probably is notthe most uncomfortable thing you've ever said.
So I just what why? Ijust just doesn't work for me. This
is It feels like I think I'mdoubling down on what I thought originally.
I think Joey Chestnut's done with alot of this stuff, and I think
he's willing to take these stands becausehe's done with his stuff like he doesn't.

(10:16):
Yeah, I'll go. I'll dothe hot doll eaton contest if you
cater to whatever I say. I'mnot. I'm not some kind of trash
compactor you can just push around.Isn't this the better way to go out?
If he doesn't come back in twentytwenty five, I'm convinced it's gonna
be the Battle of the Champions intwenty twenty five, and that might be
the end for Chess. That he'sgot one more left in him. He

(10:37):
wants the perfect number twenty and hewants to go down as the champion.
You know you brought up Muhammad Aliearlier in this conversation. Wouldn't you rather
see Joey chessnunt go out as thechampion, then get beat up in the
ring, Like there's that famous Timemagazine cover of Ali where he's beat up
in the corner and he lost.We saw Willie Mays play for the Mets.

(10:58):
We don't want to see old Joeychest done eating like seven hot dog
eh chalgy glicies back and remember whenthey had me in the old basement during
COVID. I was eating with amask on. How do you even do
that? We don't want to seeold Joey Chestnut talking about the glories.
This is like a good fighter,like Floyd Mayweather going undefeated. He's got

(11:22):
to go out on top. Sohe's coming back in twenty five. I
don't want to see old Joey Chestnut. So I like how this is all
played out? I think again,I'll stick by, Like what this isn't
like Jordan, you can't dunk anymore, This isn't not Willie maysn't run down
a five ball in centerfield's dude?We hot dogs? Like what's falling off

(11:43):
for Joey Chestnut? Oh Chestnut onlyate sixty hot dogs this year? What
a loser? Like, Like there'sno what do you mean it's it's not
Jordan for the Wizards, and it'sSmits for the Cardinals. No. No,
And even if it was, what'sthat look like? What is that
like? He? Oh no,how the Mighty have fallen? Joseph?

(12:05):
What's his million? Joseph Wisho's chestnut? Only twenty five hot dogs? And
then Yuke down the front row.It was like a Gallagher show as everyone
was in the splash zone, likelike like you were my hero, Choey.
Come what if? It's so it'slike it's like a Seinfeld episode.
It's all like it's all like poorlike special needs orphans in the front row.

(12:28):
And then I'll just wear hot dogsand all and there's chestnut. It's
like you were my sis hero Choeyspraying hot dogs everywhere. That's not.
It can't. It's nothing. Wedon't want it to go that way.
I do, Oh you do?I do. It's a spectacle, it's
not. Let's be clear. Ican't do it, Okay, I cannot.

(12:48):
I couldn't compete. I would not. I we we had one hot
dogging contest up with the Highaway andI came in like third out of four
people. And I think The personwho I beat was like literally like he
didn't know was a hot dog contest. He just sat down to eat hot
dogs, like whatever, I eata lot. It's onny fast, Like
it's a spectacle. What's more spectaclethan Joey Chestnut just spraying the first three

(13:16):
rows. Dude comes out wrapping introductions, like introduces him and he throws up
on the way up and they kickhim right out. He doesn't even get
to the hot dogs, like,he just throws up right away. That
mix of people who would be thereto watch the spectacle go downhill are probably
the same people who are actually atConey Island. Yeah, like ten rows
deep, they can't actually see what'shappening. Be like I've been here for
two days waiting to see Chestnut.Now those people are all in ponchos.

(13:41):
I bet a percentage maybe ten percent, maybe forty percent. I don't know
what type of people are waiting outfor long lines of Coney Island to watch
other people eat, but I'm surethere's a percentage of people who don't know
what's happening right now that might showup on July fourth, being like,
where the hell's Joey Chesna? Whatdo you mean he's not here and they
just start leaving a protesting or wheregonna ticket signs we want Joey Is Joey

(14:05):
Chestnut go on the fourth? Ithought he just appeared there on the fourth.
I thought it was like Santa,Like Santa's just just goes down your
chimney at Christmas. There's no otherplace. I thought if a hot dog
pack opens on the fourth of July, Joey Chestnut appears, leaves ketchup and
mustard under your pillow. I'm heardthe understanding he probably does all of those
things. That Chestnut is somewhere betweenBill Murray, uh, Doug Gowdy from

(14:26):
WG I told me a story aboutCharles Barkley did this, that Chessnut will
just show up at random city barsand have people buy him drinks. I
mean, under that impression after ourinteraction in Vegas. Believe that, I
mean, and he can do thatforever. He can do that forever.
Now now I'm gonna see if Ican there's a plant based pier though I'm
gonna never again. Oh my god, what I mean this is as the

(14:46):
Wiener turns, all right, well, stay tuned. There's times there's a
lot as gods would say, alot of real minutes between now and the
fourth of July. We will effortto get Joey on the show. If
you follow the vaking guys know aboutone year of since like twenty fifteen,
we haven't had them on. Weboth have his cell phone. I have
both. I have prediction. Okay, what did Kabayashi do when they told

(15:09):
him he couldn't do the Nathans anymore? Rush the stage? Well? Then
before that, didn he do likeeating like nearby? Oh? Yes he
did. Yes, it's somewhere.Joey Chestnut is going to be just hammered
down on vegan hot dogs. That'skidding, the impossible Joey Chestnut challenge.
Joey Chestnut and a bunch of hungrypeople are gonna eat wieners, but they're

(15:33):
not real. Wean like he's gonnago out trying to fool people. It's
really like the Chris Farley bed.He starts breaking stuff. I just thought
the greatest prank in the world.Get like four of these famous MLLE guys,
Joey Chestnut badly as book or whatever, walk into it all. You
can eat buffet and just let themgo to work. I don't know if

(15:54):
it's a prank or bed for business. Well, you pay the guy,
Yeah, you do the right thing, Like you're part of the budget to
pay them whatever whatever they whatever theylost in your in your four people just
emptying the buffet, repeatedly, watchingthe watching the struggle. I would watch
that. I the only thing Iremember remember. MTV had UH I want
to be Uh, like I wantto be a DJ. I want to

(16:17):
be Ah. You don't remember thatshow, Okay, then I won't tell
this, No, tell the story, though, You're still gonna tell them
what one was. I want tobe a competitive eater And you'd find it
somewhere on MTV and the guy showsup to Hooters and says, hey,
just keep bringing me chicken wings.And at one point I'm going to stop.
And I just imagine businesses like this, like what's happening. You're stealing
them. There's a bucket somewhere,like you're hoarding them. We're losing money

(16:37):
with people like you. There's likesushi restaurants where the food comes out like
a conveyor belt, and like Ithink it was Kobeashi did it where they
just kept eating and he had likea stack of plates that was like twelve
feet tall because he's kept grabbing stuffoff the conveyor belt and going to work
insane. This is gonna sound mean, but I'll go first. One of
your kids came to you and said, Dad, my dream is to be

(16:59):
a competitive You backhand him right forthe first time ever you put hands on
your child. No, a lawyer, physical therapist, not radio that's almost
dead, but anything other than acompetitive eater. How much does it pay?
Have you seen? The training's gonnabe expensive as all out? When
I was fifteen, I was askedpolitely to leave, along with my teammates

(17:21):
a certain buffet we went out afterhigh school training. It was me and
the offensive lineman for Salve High Schoolcountry ku out. It was five of
us, and we stayed there fora very long time because only a few
of us could actually drive. Again, I was fifteen. We were asked,
politely, you all have to leave. You've done too much damage to
this buffet. You must all gonow. I would say. It was
more of my teammates. Have youever been in Lovak? Politely asked to

(17:42):
leave all you could eat? Eatery? Is I fat? I didn't what
a my John Panetta. You madea four. What you want? You
go home? You leave now?Uh No, I have never been asked
to leave a buffet, right,well, not for that reason. You
were overserved. That's happened. Okay, the old Chicago pizza buffet that used
to be on a wolf row andoh that was a beast. He's rocking

(18:04):
pizza and beers. Oh, it'samazing, amazing. We're pushing this out.
I know, I know we're goingon. We're going on. Hey
where hold on? I don't knowwhat's worse worse Friday? Yeah, Sorry,
somebody's gonna get mad about Hey,hey, hey, schools ice cream.

(18:26):
I'll get there. When I getthat, we'll get to we'll get
to the New York conversation. Soyou were asked because you were over served
at the pizza ba Fet, notbecause I wasn't too asked. It was
kind of like it was like oneof those like do you have a safe
way to get home? Sir.I'm like, I'm like, it's two,
it's like one in the afternoon.They were like, yeah, we

(18:47):
like, we'd like you to goahead and head that way if you could,
like one more beer and I willgo there. Okay, but you
gotta go. Yeah, one thirtyin the afternoon at a pizza bfet.
You were asked lately was it aweekday or weekend? It was a week
day. It wasn't like asked toleave, It's like implied I should.
In my defense, in my defense, they used to have a competition where

(19:10):
like, if you drank a certainnumber of their beers, if you'd had
them all, you got rewards.So I had done the mornings, I
was done for the day. Everybodyelse with a lunch. I went to
lunch with them, and then wewere eating pizza and I was like,
you know, I haven't I gotI got like four before I get a
long sleeve T shirt and I gotthe the It was shortly after that they
started doing you can only get twonew beers per per visit. I got

(19:34):
a ride home. It was fine. What speaking about rot. Yeah,
it was a cool long team longsleeve T shirt. It was nice and
glass and I think I don't Ithink I had a pennant or something too.
I left. I left. Ileft like a little kid whose dad
was trying to buy his love atthe fair. That's why I left.
I had all these things like yay, but realistically it was just me throwing

(19:56):

let's drive at Mawk Chevy where theyalways go out of their way to please
you. I don't even remember whatthe hell we're doing anymore camping. We're

(21:48):
going camping. We have some NewYork storylines from almost summer camp. That's
the next Fox Sports Radio ninety five, ninety ninet eighty. It's lavakan guys
on ninety five nine Fox Sports Radiobreak out the Marshmallows, No Wieners.
We're going camping, baby, it'stime a little reports from I sound like

(22:12):
Shaggy Hey school. We got wienerscoming for us. Uh going school like
school radio, your Scooby Stagger's awiener coming right for you. Radio legend,
Casey Caseum yeah, uh man,what what an absolute legend? So

(22:33):
mini camps underway if you're not namedAaron Rodgers. So we have we have
reports from the three New York teams. So let's go camping. We'll start
with the Jets. Uh, mixedday for Tyrod Taylor. Oh why is
Team Mobil your quarterback? That's right, Aaron Rodgers has something more important to
do. Uh, it said,it's seven on seven. Drills look great?
Seven and seven look great. Soyou know, if anything happens to

(22:56):
Jake Medlock, we can give wecan give Tyron a call in the in
the in the Arena League. ButI guess when he went up to eleven
on eleven red zone he struggled threein complete passes, fumbled in exchange with
running back the rookie there Isaiah Davis. So uh, mixed bag. But
he's a pro. He'll get itdown. He's not gonna like he's going

(23:18):
to be average, is what Ibelieve. And the old rule of thumb
for a backup quarterback was he getsyou in a position to win half the
games he starts at least, Iwould think you're a you're a you're a
five hundred ish team if you haveto go through the whole season with Team
Mobile. I would even argue atthis point in his career is probably I'm
sorry, T not so Mobile.Sorry, go ahead. I would say

(23:41):
less than five hundred now. Probablywould have gave you five hundred three years
ago. But he's dealt with injuries, sometimes not even to his own fault,
but an odd career he's had,I would say he's probably below five
hundred at this point. He isdefinitely a emergency quarterback, fine veteran,
but I would say below five hundred. If that's the case, and if
he's playing at some point people mightbe losing their jobs, A significant upgrade

(24:06):
from from Zach Wilson A big gameBob, Big game Bob Salid yesterday,
when asked about Taylor elite human beingan elite leader, I don't know.
I mean, I guess so veteran. Yeah, that's fine. I mean,
is that is that the future forTyler Taylor? Is he going to

(24:26):
be like a quarterback coach? Ican see him in a coach. I
don't I don't know. I justknow that everywhere we've seen him recently,
for one reason or another, thedude behind him has got the job.
Like in Cleveland he lost the jobto Baker. It wasn't fair for the
Chargers he got They went to shootup his ribcage and like punctures lung.
But Buffalo's in that next to Buffalo. Yeah, So, I mean that

(24:49):
question makes me wonder a little bithere for New York sports fans about Taylor,
because if you had to pick aposition in this part of prepping for
a football season, what position wouldlook the worst or what position would grab
the headlines potential bad play? Wouldn'tquarterback be the answer, because like you're

(25:10):
really kind of going against air atsome points or walk through his half speed
shorts with the guys up front,So you're you're not really getting a great
evaluation if your O and D linetill really camp starts up wide receivers,
maybe just because of speed, butmaybe you screw up your route. So
you know what, I'd probably putwide receiver too. But if you told

(25:32):
me most likely to make mistakes thispart prepping for a season would be quarterback,
would you disagree with that? Like, and maybe I'm doing too easy
of an answer, because it's like, obviously, gods people want to care
about what the back of quarterback lookslike because Rogers is it out there.
But it feels like if there's gonnabe headlines for this part of the season,
quarterback mess ups will always be theone that grabs the headline. It
probably should is they learn a newoffense and new skill, guys in a

(25:53):
system and everything else. Like aneight million dollars backup quarterback shouldn't he dollars
guaranteed? Yeah? I suppose,But again you bring in a vet he
should this is where he should shinelike in practice, he should shine in
practice, like he should look great. My my question was the elite leader,

(26:15):
elite human elite, elite leader.That's not that's not a little needle.
Right, No, that's not alittle like, it's not a little
Hey, we got an elite leader. He shows up for mandatory camps,
Rogers, go discount, double checkyour butt out of here. No,
that's a very cliche way to say. He's a veteran, he's an elite
leader. He's helping guys get betterevery single day. He's leading the offense.

(26:37):
No, no, no, Ithink it's just a very it's a
nice cliche way to say, hey, he's not very good. You know,
he could have gone works hard.It's the job done, respected by
his teammates. I just think,I'm I'm I'm falling into the trap where
everybody's looking for the digs on Rogers. Like I was, I'm like everywhere
I look, it's like, youknow, you go to the four letter

(26:59):
network, somebody's where they're going.I feel like he took a shot at
Rogers. You look at uh.Dina Rassini, she tweeted something out where
it was like he's unexcused absence,so he's picked something he's more important to
him than by his choice or whatever, like everybody's like, so now I'm
just looking for I'm looking for AaronRodgers hate I like the one that said,
imagine Jet fan. If the Patriotquarterback did that, you guys would

(27:23):
be roasting him for weeks how hedoesn't care about the team and you'd love
that he's not there. Like,guys, we're stretching this with the oldest
player in the NFL of where heneeds to be in the second week of
June. I would not be surprised, Levick if I forgot about this in
like three years that Rogers, theoldest guy in the NFL, wasn't at

(27:45):
not camp, not preseason, thestuff before that. If he goes and
plays this year, then yeah,it's gone. But if he gets hurt
again, I think then it's likemaybe it's not. Maybe you don't beat
him up for the for missing themandatory mini caamp, but it's like you
look at it and go, okay, so he was mister everything for you
in twenty three, gives you fourplays, the team crumbles without him.

(28:10):
He then is at optional OTAs youcan't get rid of him. He's all
over the place soon as because Mandatorystops showing up and he gets hurted again
something like that. I think thenit becomes a bigger storyline. But it's
all I'm with you. It's contingenton what happens next. But that's what's
coming out of Greenland, if youwill. And now staying in Jersey,

(28:30):
the focus for the Giants camp isgoing to be on Daniel Jones. They
say he will be ready for camp. But the other focus is going to
be on the wide receiver position.I forgot that Wendell Robinson is only in
his third year and coming off ofan ACL I guess he looks phenomenal.
He looks fast. He had abig play, He had the play of
the day summer saying yesterday, bigold, big old touchdown. You know,

(28:56):
a little combined route with the rookieMolik neighbors, so you know some
hope, uh Robinson neighbors, DariusSlayton, Jalen Hyatt, a very fast,
very explosive wide receiver corp. Thatwas the first one I thought about
when you started listening off those widere series. Fast speed, go beat
guys one on one. Let's seewhat Daniel Jones's deep ball looks like.

(29:18):
But in that conversation of you settingthat up about with the Giants, sessions
have looked like here in the summer, I think you accidentally threw me an
absolute meatball over the plate that Ireally like for the next two months,
a storyline that I'm gonna enjoy forthe New York teams. Buffalo, you're
out of this conversation for the moment. I guess the New Jersey teams we're

(29:40):
not gonna do that. But backto Daniel Jones, the quote you had
had there about him potentially being readyfor camp in the summer. Who are
you more concerned about this summer,Daniel Jones or Aaron Rodgers? And I'm
gonna talk about the season. I'mgona talk about week one. I'm talking
about like in actual summer practice,when it's mid July and you're wh should
run drills when you're going against elevenand guys are competing for a roster spot.

(30:06):
I know, if you're a fanof the Jets or the Giants,
you shouldn't even have the concern of, oh, man, I'm really nervous
about what my quarterback is going todo in practice when they're already veterans.
But I'll ask the question again,who are you more concerned about, and
you can use a concern of actualplay, taking a hit, looking awful
physically. I know you're not doctorLevac, but I'll offer up the question

(30:26):
that I find it intriguing. Whoare New York fans more concerned about this
summer in practice? Daniel Jones orAaron Rodgers in practice? Yes, that
is Dale Jones. I mean well, because I'd be both coming back from
injury. But like we know whatAaron Rodgers. I think the floor for

(30:48):
Aaron Rodgers is, you know,top thirteen fourteen quarterback, good enough to
take a very good team, youknow, to the playoffs. The ceiling
for him is MVP. We've seenit and he can do it. It's
it's definitely it's in his purview tomake that happen. Four For Daniel Jones,
he doesn't play like he just getshurt again and he doesn't play.

(31:10):
Uh. The ceiling for him ishe's mobile and he gets the ball out
in front of these fast receivers andhe looks great. If I had to
pick a concern of who I feelmore concerned about, I would say Daniel
Jones, which is why to thinkabout of Hey, I'm more concerned about
Daniel Jones being healthy getting through theseason. Then again, the oldest player
in the NFL coming off of tornicat least tenant, who has never played

(31:32):
a full regular season game in anoffense for this team, for the New
York Jets. Ooh ouch, thatkind of hurts, But that's true.
Like there's a chance that Aaron Rodgers. I love what you said there about
if Rogers is even average, right, if he's okay, he's probably gonna
sit anywhere between five and fifteen.He's got a wide range of what he
could be in. At the absolutemax, the Jets are gonna have a
historic season. Maybe at the absolutemax, Daniel Jones is in that spot

(31:57):
of ten to fifteen best quarterback.But if he's bad, the whole thing
is getting blown up, Which isthe same thing that can be said for
the Jets. Like, if DanielJones is bad, he's out, he's
done. Maybe a coordinator goes,I don't I'm not saying Brian Davill is
gone. Because however, this wholehistory of when's happened with Daniel Jones that

(32:19):
goes back to Dave Gettleman, goesback to Joe Judge. These guys.
Weren't Daniel Jones guys, and theycan say, hey, we want Quinn
Ewers or Carson Beck or Shador Sanders. Who we want the college kid next
year? You made us pass onhim. We allegedly were gonna do everything
we could to get Drake May,but you didn't. So I am more
concerned about Daniel Jones because I knowwhat Daniel Jones is healthy. It's not

(32:43):
great. I don't know if youno, we don't. I mean we
don't, we don't know. That'sthe problems. Like five years. Yeah,
but we've seen him be very good. We've seen him be very bad,
not not Aaron Rodgers good though noteven Rogers average. I think,
no, no, definitely, buthe got he could be as good as
forty year old Aaron Rodgers. Ithink I haven't seen forty year old Aaron
Rodgers. Yeah, no, no, no, you know what I do

(33:04):
agree with that point. I thinkif Aaron Rodgers is look, it's potentially
his last season in the NFL.This could be his worst season in the
NFL. Could a Daniel Jones aboveaverage season be better than the worst and
oldest season of Aaron Rodgers off aseason an injury. Yeah, no,
no, that scenario could happen,right, but concerned level. I know
what Rogers has been, it's beena Hall of Fame quarterback. I don't

(33:28):
know. I got one good yearout of Daniel Jones and he's coming off
and they told us, hey,hey, don't worry, don't worry.
He might be ready for summer camp. He might be ready in August.
What might be ready? I don'tknow what he was would have been if
he was ready. So the concernI think for New Europeans again, if
you disagree, you'd let us knowat wof X ninet eighty on Twitter,
at the Jeff Levac and Tom Goss, tomgo is ez and if you listen

(33:51):
on the app, by the way, just hit that microphone. You could
fire off a thirty second take andbe like, guys, you dummy.
The answer is Aaron Rodgers, DanielJones will be final. We'll play on
the air. Maybe you're still tough, talk yourself when you're when you're not
you. I know people will geta reaction. You know, I'll see
about a segment. I don't knowif we'll ever bring it back, but
I do miss socially awkward media yeah, you know, I'm finally bringing that

(34:15):
back. We're seeing a lot moreright, a lot more engagement on social.
We have the talk back app,which we didn't have before. So
who knows, maybe one of ourfavorite segments will return and we'll read through
more. If if you're getting ignoredon social, we're not doing it on
purpose. We're just flying through arocket on the show. Maybe we'll bring
maybe we'll bring that back. Justfor the Bills, it's all about injuries.

(34:37):
Yesterday they had they missed, soyesterday's practice, I didn't see the
report for today. Who showed up? Who didn't yet, but wide receiver
Khalil Shakira left early with lower bodyinjury. Linebackers Dorian Williams, Nicholas Morrow,
Baalon Specter and edif One all ofFosco both they all, they all

(34:59):
miss yesterday. I've all missed aday or so. Running backs Ray Davis,
Ty Johnson at miss time, fullbackRessie Gilliam have all missed parts of
this manatory camp with injuries. Thegood news is that Matt Milano is doing
someone on one work. It lookslike he's on pace to be back this
year twenty twenty four. As youprep for the season. The Matt Mullano
talk, the importance of what hecan actually be for the team. You

(35:22):
want to talk about a player whomaybe nationally does not get as much credit
as he should as Milano. Ifyou cover the Bills for a living,
If you're a Bills fan and yougo out to Saint John Fisher this upcoming
summer, bring like a big oldchart, Like, don't even bring your
phone, bring like a clipboard,print out the roster so you can be
like, who when did he?There's been a lot of changes for Buffalo,

(35:43):
so even know, if you're likeyou love it, if you're a
Bill's Mafia fan, you gotta admitsome of those names will have ACTI just
listed off how many did you get? One, five, eight, And
you might follow the Bills like,there's a lot of new names that can
potentially steal roster spots or push forplaying time. John McDermott, Brandon Bean,
They've got a lot, a lotof decisions to make because he has
some really talented guys on that rosterfighting for spots. Yeah, it's gonna

(36:07):
be It's I don't know. Istill have pretty high host for the Bills.
I think I think we can geteverybody roll the boat the same direction
as long as the injuries stop atsome point. It's a lot of people
to miss mandatory camp. It's alot of people, all right. So
there it is. We went camping, kids. I hope you enjoyed it.
I was. I went down arabbit hole at one point last night
of creepy camp videos on on theYouTube's and man, like the amount of

(36:36):
people strictly for social media content thatgo camping by themselves, Like we're gonna
go hunt ghosts. It's like andit's one dude and he's in the middle
of the woods, or it's adude and his dog, and then in
the woods, and then like it'llbe like a random couple or whatever,
and then like it's inevitably it's likethey'll hear something or something happened. But

(36:58):
the ones that my favorites were likeit was in a ghost that scared them.
This time it was a crazy personin the woods. No crap,
of course, the crazy people arein the woods running around. This dude's
walking through woods, he gets hegets lost, and all you hear,
like from the distance is this woman'svoice. I see. I'm like I
would have I would have messed.I almost put my pants watching it on

(37:20):
TV. So no camping for meand not like that. I'm I'm an
I'm a glamper memory You're okay,it's just for TikTok what I see?
Yeah, well I'm running now whichway are you? So I go the
other way? Yeah. So there'sthere's more fun camping NFL camping right there
coming up and actually got the dumpbefore you're right. Here's Vac, guys,

(37:40):
Fox Sports Radio ninety five nine andnine eighty slovakan guzz On, the
voice of the Capitol Regions sports fanFox Sports ninety five nine and nine eighty
from the GT Toys studio. That'stoys with a A Z. It is
Levac, guys. It's time forthe dump. All the stuff that falls
down the show lands down here andit ends up just you know, I'll

(38:04):
just here it is. Enjoy itor don't whatever, it's your problem now.
I'm already on borrow the time.I gotta get over to Scoops ice
Cream at Constant Farm. So I'min very busy man. I'm glad you're
here. I didn't think you getit's gonna be in an odd few days
with you coming up with the Firebirdsback at home. But I'm glad you
made it all the way to thisfinal segment. I don't know if that's
gonna be the trend for the Thursdayor Friday show, but I'll take what
I can get with you as youprep for the final regular season home game

(38:27):
of the season tomorrow is listen.It's like the wise Raffiki one said,
you know, the past is behindus, the future is in front of
us, and the present is I'msorry, the future is a mystery.
And that's why they call the Presidentof the president. It's the gift,
so enjoy it while you have it. You almost Foss's boy. I butchered

(38:49):
that quote. I butchered that quote. But if if a cartoon, a
crazy old cartoon monkey wants to fightme, I'm ready I'll square up.
Uh all right, I see whatis this thing? I have something?
But what do you? What isthis your I see in here a clipped
show the clip. Yeah, youmight remember this from about maybe two weeks

(39:10):
ago in the Dumped the Dump,and we were talking about the show that
was debuting on fx X or Huluwhatever they're calling distation now the new sports
drama series called Clipped and the storiesabout Donald Sterling and v Stiviana. Oh
yeah, yeah, okay, Ithought I thought it was. When I
saw it, I thought like Iwas like, I was thinking, like

(39:30):
talk to Tosh, like clip showslike the like the show like Ridiculousness where
they just show clips. So it'sEd O'Neill's in it. Lawrence Fishburne plays
Doc Rivers, which I heard AustinRivers complaining about the casting, and I
know that's got the most of theattention. I will get to that in
a second, but if you mayhave missed this conversation, about two or
three weeks ago, this show wasgetting roasted across the internet for how bad

(39:52):
the casting was, how much Laurencefishburn didn't look like Doc Rivers, the
person who plays Blake Griffin doesn't looklike Blake Griff or DeAndre dr Really the
only one they sort of nailed isvst Diviano, Donald Sterling, and Matt
Barnes. Whoever played in Matt Barnesactually doesn't think Matt Barnes. So I
had this whole take about this isgoing to be so bad that it's gonna

(40:12):
put a stop to all sports serieslike sports fan likes documentaries, They like
thirty for thirties. They like knowingthe real things about the real athletes because
they are eat, sleep and breathe. Sports fans like you and I are
people like the real things that happenedin the I didn't know that story behind
it, so this is more fiction. Things have been made up in some
ways, like the Showtime Lakers HBOseries. So I wanted this whole rant

(40:36):
and raved about like how it's gonnaruin TV sports shows forever now all the
back you know this, And maybethis is me as a young father that
I don't have as much time toconsume anything. I've got two boys,
my attentions on them, so whenit comes to having the downtime as a
father, you don't have as muchas he used to. Kids have a
lot to do it. So ifI watch a show, if I'm going

(40:59):
down for a series, it betterbe good. It better be breaking bad
level, it better be secession.I like severance, so if I'm gonna
sit down and commit to this,it better be good. I broke my
rule because I watched clip last night. Couldn't get to sleep. I watched
all three episodes. Here's my takeaway. If you haven't started this, if
you're a sports fan looking for anew show. I don't want to say

(41:22):
it's not very good, but knowwhat you're getting into when you watch this.
If you have a girlfriend, afiance, a wife, this is
a watch a show with them typeof show. This is not you and
your buddies. Oh I can't waitto watch clip. Yoh do you see
that new clip? No? No, no, no, no no,
that's thirty for thirties. If youwant that's you know, have nothing on

(41:43):
TV? Throw this on. Thisis a girlfriend, wife, fiance show.
And I say that because it's reallynot about sports. It's about Vistaviano
if you remember her, the mistressof Donald Sterling. It's about her trying
to become a celebrity in the midtwenty tens. It's more about the drama
of the wife versus the mistress.Like, it's a reality show as a

(42:07):
series, so if you could pitchthat to it's a opera, so if
you could pitch that to your significantother, like, hey, have you
ever heard the story about the clipper'sowner and what happened with his mistress?
She's like Ooh, what do youmean. Don't you hear that story?
Like ten years ago she was wearingthat weird mess that looked like she was
from Star Wars. What what areyou talking? It's about sports? Oh

(42:29):
you like sports? I can watchit is a wife fiance girlfriends show and
no going into it. It isbarely about sports. It is reality TV
and it's fine. So that's mytakeaway from my first three episodes of Clipped
and I've watched. Does that peakyour interest at all? Knowing it's a
sports show but it's not about sportsand it's more about reality TV how to
become famous? Uh, I don'tknow to when you talk about it,

(42:54):
I think to myself, I'm gonnawatch that, but I've forgotten it existed
every time after you talked about it. So I think, if I'm being
honest, I'm not gonna watch it. I just, you know, maybe
maybe I just maybe after the season. I'm just a little busy like ingit.
Yeah. I mean, like lastnight I got home, I don't
know, it was like seven seventhirty, and I played Borderlands three just

(43:15):
to like blow things up and notin real life, you know. That's
and then I went to bed likethat was it? So I don't know,
like and like tonight after Flock University, I'll get home. I haven't
watched The Acolyte yet, the Newthe New Star Wars series, I haven't
watched. I'm not caught up onEvil, which is one of my series
I enjoy. I'm so far theBoys season four is about to start.

(43:37):
I've got a lot. I'm avery busy man. A lot of things
I have to watch. The Yankeeshave been phenomenal. Yes, So it's
it's very pretty difficult for me tojust, you know, schedule some time
for some other show. So it'sa note, it's a strong note or
a binge. It's either a noor a bench and a weekly viewing for
you maybe, like like if Iget sick or something in the summer and
I'm just stuck in the house,I could see myself going, oh,

(43:59):
there it is, I'll do that. But you didn't like the Laker Show.
I like the Laker one nod andlike I turned it off after one
episode. I like that. Ithought that was good. I thought that
was really good. Actually it wasentertaining. Uh No, I I like
how I said, Like, Ican't even tell you like it's muscle Watch.
It's even good. It is justyou need something in the summer that
has sports relations to it, becausewhen you do the cast, I think

(44:21):
of like when when you see likewhen there's a TV show or a movie
made inside of a TV show ora movie and they're like, hey we
got Laurence Fishburn. It's like forfor Doc Rivers, Hey, d O'Neill
is that is that O'Neill Stern?Yeah, it's Donald Sterling. Yeah,
oh Sterling. I mean, ohgeez, I don't David Stern is not
in it though, David Starning thatAdam Silver like it. I actually forgot

(44:43):
this part. Adam Silver was onlythree months into the job when the Donald
Sterling stuff went down, right,well through three months on the planet.
He is he's an alien. Yeah, clearly, he's like, this will
be great. I will run theNBA. Everyone would have me and no,
I would like to phone home now, phone home, hate me?
Do your leaders? You didn't watchthe OJ nah true Crime, not the

(45:07):
OJ thirty for thirty, but theone that FX did as well with Kuba
Gooding Junior. But again that's lesssports too, that's more crime. But
again that was like like I'm Iwould rather if you told me I had
to sit down and relive one ofthese stories, I would go with the
Clipper story just because, like II detest the OJ story on so many

(45:28):
levels, like like you want youwant to know why why races hate,
like are open about hating each other? Right now? It's because of that,
Like that was that was the daywhere it was like, no longer
will you hide that you hate whitepeople. You can say it out loud.
Now it's like, ah, sleepwhitey And that was me. That
was so yeah. I still thatjust ruined a lot of things. Not

(45:49):
only did the OJ think was ruined, but you know what, I now
know you will never watch clip becauseanalyzing this, thinking about this almost twenty
four hour, probably closer to tenhours after I watched it. Vstaviano,
the character and the actors who playsher, I have no clue who she
is. But maybe that's the combinatof I actually think she is Vistaviano on
the show, and she goes bymany alias. Is she is so crazy,
she did all these things. Sheis so out of her mind that

(46:14):
she has left in the Ana Silvercomparison. There she's not on planet Earth.
I'm just thinking about head like,man, what other sports story was
someone so irrational, so out there, so on a different planet that they
were so self destructive with something thathad success that I was fascinated by that
people would actually probably watch. Andthen I thought about the Albany Empire with

(46:35):
Antonio Roman, like this could beyou. I didn't tell you this.
I didn't tell you this until rightnow. Actually I got another email.
But by the way, Cleopatra isthat okay? I didn't I wasn't familiar
with her or before this, Igot another email from a certain film company
asking about you today. Oh whatis what does he do? He has

(46:57):
my number? I think he mustagent. I think he thinks of your
agent, like I'm pitching. Whatdoes he want? What does he want?
Now? Like? What is wetold him? It? Present it?
Like what Ari gold Chase? IfI remember correctly. Wasn't this a
situation where like he loved the story, but he couldn't get anybody above him
to sign off, so if wewanted to make it, we had to
pay for it. Some situation likethat. I got a text from somebody

(47:22):
that said, like, hey,I've got another idea. Let me know
your thoughts on that is. Ihaven't looked at it yet. Oh okay,
I assume it's about you. MaybeI'd made a wrong assumption. Maybe
it's not about you, mate,it's you love very exciting life, snoring
in an easy chair. By seventhirty, I got, I got.
I was in the I was atthe radio staate like Stevie Nick took over

(47:43):
MVP arena today, so like there'sthere's no there's nowhere for me to park.
There's nothing. So I came hereto get work done. So I
just get away from everybody. Igo to my desk and start to work.
The amount of people went, wow, you're in here way before guys,
I just I shall play that out, so I let you know that.
So yeah, so the story ofGods and Taco Tuesday and the amount

(48:08):
that he wears when he mows thelawn. Wait, you think the film
is about me? I would makea movie about you. I find you
fascinating. I think my my moviewould not be a movie. My movie
would be whatever many to Actually,I'm concerned how many people have said this.
It wouldn't be a movie. Itwould just be big brother. You
would drop a camera on me fortwenty four to seven, and note what's

(48:28):
going on right now. What isgoing very Truman show like is what people
told me. They want me filmedall the time to see my daily walk
through life and what goes on inthat head of yours. What if I
told you one man never remembered hiswallet, the Tom Kazlowski the third story,
people are yelling at the TV.It's right there, right, come
on. You went off on atangent about you're upset that your you're canceled

(48:52):
debit card wouldn't fund your Nira betsaccount, and we've had people furious with
you over that. I wonder howmany people think you really are trying to
use a canceled debit card instead ofjust as a cop out, like you
just you just don't want to putmoney in, and so you start playing
around with the canceled debit card andpeople are like, you idiot, why

(49:13):
would you think it's canceled, it'sdead. It's like, oh my god.
People get so mad at you,it's hysterically. They were not happy.
People have come up to me justdidn't understand how I'm getting through life.
If that's my method, I mean, oh, that's what it is
how did this man get through life? The Tom Goslowski the third story.
I like to brack a little bithere that I did figure out, and

(49:34):
Ira bets you did twenty whole dollarsat some point in June go in that
account. They didn't tell me exactlywhen. I think I screwed that part
up, but it's getting in there. At some point this month. How
many years after everyone else figured itout, Caz finally figured it out.
It's like a caveman just trying tofigure out fire. That's guys, I
love it. Amazon, YouTube,whatever network this guy works for. I'll
pitch it to him. Maybe that'swhat I'll do, Levic, thank you.

(49:57):
I'll pitch my idea over his idea. I would see. Way you
really don't know what his idea was. I didn't open the email. He
sent me like passwords and say likewe've gotten screeners before, of like,
hey guys, here's the password.You can't And then I opened it and
I'm like, hey, here's theplanet. It's kind of late at night.
I feel like reading it right now, and it's like, I just
assume it's about Antonio Brown and you. Again, it can't be there's nothing

(50:17):
new. Maybe it's a new pitch. Sometimes it's as good as the pitch
I'm looking at some point this week. I mean, i'd rather know.
I mean, if you send itover to me, like, because if
it's something that's good, I wantit, Like, let's let's see if
we can make it happen. Butyou know, I don't think it's good.
We'll do it after the show.I like how I acted like I
was already gold there, like Igot another movie pitch, right, I'll

(50:37):
get to it later. Man,if i'm your I'm your Vinny Chase Man,
you suck. If I'm the bestyou can get, You're in trouble
too busy watching clip through answer theemail movie director right Siato cuts, I
was like, you guys, Ithought I was getting offers. I thought
people were interested in this story.I don't know. I put them all
to my junk folder. I don'tpay attention to any any of the how

(51:00):
dare they bother me? In mytime? But I feel like I've taken
up all of your story today.I'm sorry, Vac. I think I
feel that that was all about meand the dump. The only thing I
the other thing I found interesting isthat they did a they did a I'm
sorry? Was it? The Athleticdid a anonymous survey with major league baseball

(51:22):
players. So they found one hundredmajor League baseball players were willing to answer
the survey and like a lot ofthe answers like, I just don't I
don't care all that much about likeevaluate this statement. Anthony ren Dome was
right, the season is too long. Sixty eight point three percent of the
answers were no, it's not toolong. Which team would you sign with

(51:45):
if contracts, state taxes, androsters weren't a factor? Twelve point seven
was the was the top number forthe brains. But there's two that I
thought deserved comment, who is thebest player in baseball? Who do you
think? One hundred major league baseballplayers? Who who was the number one
answer? Out of one hundred majorleague baseball players, I would guess Otani?

(52:07):
Forty six percent said Otani. Sothey didn't see in se April,
didn't see Judge in April. Okay, but here's the one that hurts,
right, who's the most overrated playerin baseball? Can you imagine? And
they and all one hundred answered thewinner. Oh, let me guess.
Yes, let me guess. Iwasn't gonna tell you the percentage that picked
the winner. Okay, twenty pointthree percent picked the same person. Twenty

(52:32):
percent of people picked this person isthe most overrated player in baseball. And
he said it hurt I didn't know. I mean saying it would hurt me
if I was that person. Ohyeah, like Jerry mcnamary coach at Siana.
Now like this was the whole overratedtheir own local paper did it?
Like that sparked the Syracuse running Ohsix, It's also like spiteful, like
we're gonna show you how much hesuck. Everyone in the league also said
he suckted Uh, who I assumeis overrated? Who? Who would one

(52:58):
hundred Major League BASEBA play anonymously sayis overrated? I would have two gases
here. I would guess either Troutor Judge would be my two gases.
So I'll go with Judge just becauseyou brought up a Trout would have been
my second. Well, either oneof those like you. I would imagine
those guys could laugh it off.Yeah, I make I make them hundreds
and hundreds of millions of dollars,and I'm having nothing but fun. But

(53:21):
can Jazz Chisholm Junior laugh it off? Ooh ouch, Like he's a nice
player, he's got I believe he'son the cover of MLB. The show
twenty percent of people went at JazzChisholm ooh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah,
Like what did he do? Hemust have ticked somebody off. Like

(53:43):
I know, people like joke aboutthe name and all other stuff, but
like, man, how is thatlike overrated? That's got to stay a
little bit. If he sees that, you know what, and you know,
people run to the locker, Hey, hey, do you hear you're
overrated? Gosh, Now I haveto like reconsider this. Maybe that's the
goal of the over and Underrated pollsis for us as sports fans to reconsider

(54:04):
how we view them, especially fromathletes. Gosh, I thought he was
a fine I've had no issues orbeasts with him. I mean, I
don't really like. I don't hearhim talked about all that much like it,
Like I didn't like. I neverthought he was like h who I
mean, I'm trying to like BlakeSnell getting the cy young. I thought

(54:25):
that was a little a little bitmuch. I don't still but like that's
not to the point where that's justthe name that comes to mind. I
would just fire some the reason Ieven guessed Trout and Judges because they play
in big markets, and you usedtoe like a big market player would be
overrated because of the media coverage ofsomebody, right, Like that would be
my guess. I bettion the people. Some of the people said that,

(54:45):
I'm trying to think of anybody elsewho's been like considered overrated in baseball that
you could make an argument for.I guess I don't even like that comparison.
I was gonna say, like MacGuireand Sosa in the nineties, because
they didn't have as high as anaverage, but they were smashing home runs.
But on the same way, likehe's getting walked, like no,
like chess. You say, though, like everybody talks about like he's new
babe Ruth, like he's not pitchinganymore. I think that's why he gets

(55:06):
that nod, because if you're aplayer and you say, like, who's
the most amazing player in baseball?If you're just a hitter, like wow,
what if I could hit and pitch? Who was the the White Sox
storey star Tim Anderson? Yeah,I would say Tim Anderson. That was
vac I'm not even kidding that wasgonna be my probably if you gave me
that poll in twenty eighteen, Iwould have probably said Tim Anderson because at
that point Anderson was put up numbers, but he was more about the bat

(55:28):
flip, the showcase. The quoteat the end of the game, Uh,
Gavin Bigio probably would have been theanswer. I know he just got
traded to the Dodgers, but hewould get grouped in with Guerrero Junior and
Bashett you know what. I yeah, because I when I first saw the
trade, I was like, wow, I didn't I didn't even realize dude
just got DFA. You know,like, I'll go with that one.
Strasburg is another good one because hewas always hurt, but I think they

(55:51):
went with active though. Yeah alltime. He probably go calro oh god,
oh, I showed up to workevery day. Good for you.
Uh caught and we'll started turning alittle while back and like, oh I
can turn this on, Gus,go get your ice cream. Get out.
