Around the Sports

The Dallas Stars kicked ass lastnight!!  The Rangers however, did not.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, someone on the show had a perhaps harrowing
experience with a self drive automobile. Who is it? What
does their story stick around to find out? Coming up
here in about fifteen to twenty minutes, But right now
it's time for this.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Now, let's go around the sports kt tweets as.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
All the sports year. Yeah, one good bit of playoff news.
The Stars won last night and they're up three to
two in their series. So they'll try to close it
out tomorrow night in Colorado, first round, first round. So
but it's been a very interesting, like back and forth series.
But they scored in the first nine seconds last night.

(00:40):
Did y'all watch any of that last night?

Speaker 1 (00:42):
I was in a restaurant at the beginning of it,
and so I saw. I saw the first most of
the first period, well.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Three nothing, and then it was three to two, and
then it was five too, and I went to bed.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Okay, I honestly, I know it's Dallas Sports where I
got home and I could not take my eyes off
of the Golden State Warriors Rockets game. It was so entertaining.
I mean, I love when two teams are wildly mismatched
and they go ahead to head and I will watch
Steph Curry play playoff basketball until the day I die,

(01:14):
because he is awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
What if he's still playing when you die.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Be a badass, and I wouldn't doubt it, and he'd
free himself up for a big shot no matter how
bad he's playing.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
That would mean something really bad has happened to you
or he's had a very long career.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
That's true.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
The Rangers are not doing well, guys. They're not hitting
the ball very good now. Our guy seekers out, So
I get all that, but this offense is pretty boring
right now.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Yeah, and it sucks because they've got the pitching is
good enough for them to win it all.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
It's really good.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
And so this could be a great season. But I
saw that they see the fewest amount of pitches in
the league, Like they just swing and everything. But I
guess so, yeah, they need like they need a pretty
significant overhaul.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
I would think, why doesn't Bochie go in there and
tell them not to do that anymore?

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Well, if that did happen, because he jacked the lineup,
he put a dolly sitting seventh. Jonah Hymett clean up
last night, Uh huh last night, And I read this
from Jamie Newberg. I didn't see a lot of the game.
They apparently just took every pitch. Oh, they got two
holes the whole time. So now they're all mad at

(02:23):
Bochie for telling them to take pitches. What tough.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Look.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
I mean, they're absolutely in it. Though fifty in the
American League you don't have to do a ton, but
like where they're in the division too, they're a game
and a half back.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
They're fine, but they're doing the part that's the hardest
part is to have pitching. Yeah, that's the hardest part.
They've got that the easier of the two sides to
get his hitting. And like what has happened, especially with
that lineup, we thought it was going to be pretty electric.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
I think there's some reason for optimism, and that would
be Corey seekers coming back. And I did see a
few stats that Jared Sandler posted on the pregame show,
which is great. They let Jared just go. He's got
his own TV show all before games. It's wonderful.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
He does a stand up routine. Yeah, it's new.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
They have something new every time. The other day he
was just roasting the other team. It's great.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
They had one segment where he was a heart surgeon,
and it was like, suddenly, a drama is great. So
for a while I saw they had like the lowest
exit velocity in the league, and so they're swinging and
everything and they're not hitting a lot hard. But the
thing about baseball you would kind of fall back on is, Okay,
what have these guys done their whole careers?

Speaker 2 (03:26):
Because the most likely thing that's gonna happen is they'll
do something similar to what they've always done, and so
you have to think at some point it'll turn around,
especially since you look at the calendar and it's a
month that doesn't even start with an M.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yet it's April.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Oh yes, not May yet. Now Thursday is the beginning
of May. I'd like to promote something on the show.
We'll have the best show clips from the month of
April on May first. Hell yeah, tough to remember what
I just said. You can hear it again on the
podcast in Free iHeartRadio app. That'll wrap it up for sports, all.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Right, thank you, Kevin. Coming up next, Christina has got
a cookie jar. She's gonna give us a report. She
did something crazy. We'll get into that story. Uh next,
don't go anywhere
