Speaker 1 (00:00):
Right to legendary sportscaster Warner Wolf.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Who is.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
I'm going to be listening very carefully. I want to
hear a certain name in this broadcast, and so I'm
going to wait and listen and see if it happens.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
You got it. First, let me just say I heard
you refer to Leanne Rhymes. Roster Bridge were all performing
well about forty years ago. That happened to me while
I was doing the eleven o'clock news on Channel two.
The substance to hold the bridge wasn't strong enough and
(00:35):
the bridge came out. I called the dentist right after
the show and he said, who saw it? I said,
only about a million people.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Thought, what did you do? How did you handle that?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Well? The next night I brought in some fake chattering
teeth on the air. I haven't had troubles since the
Bow of the Wheat ghosts in the San Francisco Giants
who will give home run cheater Barry Bonds a statue
outside Giants Oracle Park, you know, the Cooperstown Hall of
(01:17):
Fame should say here is Henry Aaron, the real non
steroid home run champion. Steroid users need not apply a
new low for the water down save. Now you take
your pick, Larry Okay. Last week, Mets Edwin Diaz came
on with two on and two out in the ninth
(01:40):
with a seventy three lead. He retired one batter and
got a save. Why because with two men on base,
he faced the tying run on deck, on deck, not
even at the plate, someone not even in the game.
And the other one Phillies Alan Renhell was awarded to
(02:04):
save in the Phillies thirteen to nothing win over the
Braves thirteen.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
How does that happen?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Well, granted he pitch shut out ball for the last
five innings, and that's the rule. You can get a
save if you pitch three innings or more and your
team wins, regardless of the score. If you can't hold
a thirteen nothing lead, you're in a wrong sport. One
(02:36):
a Yankee manager Aaron Boone and Mets manager Carlos Mendoza
have in common last week because of the pitch count.
On the same night, Boone and Mendoza took out the
starting pitchers Carlos rodin and after six innings and Frankie
Montest after five innings with three nothing leads, and the
(02:58):
Yankees and Mets both lost. Rodin's crime he pitched eighty
eight pitches Montas eighty pitches. Now this is interesting because
on this date in nineteen seventeen, Cincinnati Reads fred Tony
pitched two complete games of a doubleheader, allowing only three
(03:20):
hits in each game. The question is what was his
pitch count? Two hundred and ninety? You know all right,
time now for the three stooges, hit it okay. Stage
number one former Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln under President Biden,
who wrote Trump's Iran strike was a mistake. Come on, Anthony,
(03:48):
you were a mistake along with Obama, John Kerry and
whoever was running the country under Biden doing nothing except
the peas and help I ran financially and build up
their nuclear program. Stooge number two some Florida high school
(04:08):
students complaining that effective in the new school year beginning
in August, students may have to begin classes at seven
point thirty am or earlier rather than eight am. Well,
shut off your social.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Media and video games and go to bed earlier. What
are you going to do when you graduate high school?
Not take a job because you have to get up
too early. Grow up and join the real world, Larry,
what time do you get up?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I'm curious.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
I get up at two thirty there, yeah, but I'll yeah, okay, yeah, No,
I'm assuming they do it because it's it's cooler and
they can save on air conditioning. Is that the reason
for this?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
I think it is?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Well, what about Natalie? What time does she get of?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Don't you so late? Three am? I know?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Sorry, earlier they're complaining seven point thirty? Oh man, this
is okay? Steage number three. New York Times opinion writer
Michelle Goldberg, who wrote Plenty of Jews Love Zoran MANDONI Hey, Michelle,
(05:32):
he's a Holocaust denier, you idiot. Ask him where six
million Jews and six million non Jews disappeared to you?
Never heard of the Nuremberg trials. Mandami has stolen a
page from Hitler's playbook, using his Jewish supporters when he
(05:53):
needs them now, and then dumps them. If you think
he will take care of the Jews after he wins,
you are wrong, and he'll make sure by defunding the police,
just like Hitler did, making the police useless to protect
(06:14):
the Jews. Go read a history book, Michelle muse Schmendrick
and all of you Schmendricks who vote for him, and
those are the three stooges.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I want to use the word schmendrick. Yeah, what does
it mean exactly? What is a schmendrick?
Speaker 2 (06:33):
That means a dumb ass? Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Okay, perfect, perfect? I can stop saying dumb ass now, schmendrick.
That's perfect. No, He's frightening. And I can't believe. I
can't believe that the media seems to be behind this guy.
They don't know what they're they don't know what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I just can't believe any Jewish person would vote for
don't you know what had of your mind? Okay, finally, yesterday,
this day in history nineteen forty seven, the Yankees started
the team record, which is still a record. They won
nineteen straight games. Shortstop Phil Rizzuto, who was superstitious, said
(07:19):
he would chew the same piece of gum and put
it on the button on the top of his cap
and would not take it off until the Yankees lost.
During the nineteen games, he said the smell became so
bad from the gum on his cap that none of
(07:40):
his teammates would sit next to him in the dugout.
He told me.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
He told me, Wow, I learned so much from you today.
I learned Schmdrick, which I didn't know before. And I
learned that if you put gum out for a while,
its smells.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Oh, I had no idea. Now I know water Wolf
legendary sportscaster. Thanks so much, Warner, have a good day.
