Speaker 4 (05:50):

Speaker 11 (05:50):
I'm telling you people who speak for a living, wouldn't
that be the first thing that goes.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
You already know is coming? Rob?
Speaker 3 (05:59):
I know you, Rob, g do I sound sick to

Speaker 4 (06:03):
Right now? No, can't wait till we were on the
phone earlier a little bit.
Speaker 12 (06:09):
Man.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
All right, all right, rob G, it is you'll just
get to what's hour too? What there? Wasn't that bad?
Speaker 4 (06:18):
And you should have stayed yourself home when you were
doing that?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Just what, rob G? Where was I was about at
the exit?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah? You were in the car.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I was in the exit.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
I did the show from the car.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
All right, here we go. Let's talk about the Lakers
robbed you the story? Please? Was that in the Athletic
right with.
Speaker 10 (06:33):
Yovant friend of the show is just here an hour two?
In his latest column discussing the Lakers plans at the
trade deadline and who they may or may not target,
one of the things that Jovonne wrote is that it
is quote highly unlikely that the Lakers would look to
acquire a third star to play alongside Lebron and ad
(06:53):
mentioned guys like Brandon Ingram, zach Lavine, Jimmy Butler not interested. Instead,
there were likely to target role players like Drian.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Finny Smith, Cam Johnson, so on and so forth.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
None of that makes any sense? Okay, what the Lakers here?
Speaker 8 (07:11):
From?
Speaker 6 (07:11):
Here's my issue when you have a forty year old player, right,
why aren't you all the way in?
Speaker 3 (07:22):
If it's just this year and.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Maybe one more year, shouldn't you have to be all
the way in?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Otherwise, what's the purpose of having a lebron jay?
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Nothing?
Speaker 6 (07:33):
Ticket sales? Keep hearing ticket sales. I don't remember the
Lakers ever having empty seats.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
They don't, they don't. Well maybe during the Sedell threet
Eldon Chance Parker.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yea, hell was tough, man, It was a tough watch.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
I didn't mean to choke you up there. I see
you coughing there. I didn't mean to get you. Get
yourself together. Okay, thank god for the mute button. Just
just so you know, everybody, Robs not sick any way.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Just because I just swallowed.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
The water coughing, I would be. I would die if
I was in that I would oh my god, if
I was sitting in that room with you, Rob. You look,
I want to explain this to people. Now, keep going,
I'm a hyper hypochondriacal My wife is like, you're crazy.
(08:23):
But something happened to me that made me this way,
all right.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
It had to be an experience.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
It must have been when the super Bowl was in
Miami and Prince was out there doing the Purple Rain
and all of that. I had an event that I
did at the super Bowl, shook a lot of hands,
took a lot of pictures, all of that, and I
got beyond sick I'm talking about And it happened instantly,
and I was like, oh, and it just changed my
(08:50):
whole perspective on germs and touching stuff and so I
from then. I've never been sick like that before. And
I'm cool.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
But you know, it's crazy.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
And and Rob G will tell you I am the
ultimate people person. How many rob g on social media?
I don't have lunch with one person. I've lunch with
ten people. I'm dead serious. I'm one of those people.
I like to be around a lot of people. And
I've never been in that situation.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
That's why.
Speaker 6 (09:23):
And I do wash my hands and use uh, you know,
the towellets and all that and and I'm very conscious
of it. And I even did it way before COVID,
you know, like I used to when I when I
clean my house, my apartment, I've always done the doorknobs
and the refrigerator handle and all. Ephrom forever I've never
(09:46):
touched skin to a public restroom. I'm talking about to
a public restroom doorknob or toilet or anything. I've never
I'm dead serious. I haven't either, So I know what
you're saying about that in Germ. So I do feel that,
But I'm not one of those people who is afraid
(10:07):
of other people.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
I was trying to spit onto the microphone someone else
has to use later. I didn't spin on a way
it's fun. It's it's fun. Like in terms of the Lakers,
like I'm I'm disheartened. I'm a huge Laker fan. We
know this, the fact that, yes, this is beginning to
be the end for Lebron James. You must go all
(10:31):
in now. Is one superstar, Like say, I wouldn't consider
Zach Lavine a superstar, right, but he can get buckets.
He's a score. You can count on him to carry
the load in terms of scoring. I think that's what
I do. Like Cam Johnson from Brooklyn though, like I
(10:54):
just need someone to be consistent. If Rory was consistent,
then okay, if some of the other pieces that if
oh my god, if D'Angelo Russell could give us what
Jordan Clarkson gave gives Utah off the bench. We would
need to be having this conversation. Maybe that's the reason
(11:16):
that Russell's been on ten teams. Oh my god, I'm
not calling him a crackhead, but some of the decision
making and shots he's taking is crackish. Okay, like it.
It baffles me. I just want him to be consistent.
Come off the bench. You have the green light, but
(11:38):
be locked in at least man Jordan Clarkson. Look, I
love and I hate that he's not with us anymore,
but he's found his place in the league. He comes
off the bench in its instant offense, instant green light
doesn't really have to guard anybody. Just give us that
offensive punch that we me when Lebron or a d
(12:01):
or somebody goes to the bench.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
It's really a great spot if you embrace it. Spot,
if you embrace it because that is what you want
to be done, and you just come out there.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
At Williams, Lou Williams was great. Oh my god, you
know what I think.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
You remember when the Pistils traded for Alon Iverson and
he just could not accept that role. But he would
have been grave and it could have played for a
number of years, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Exactly, But he didn't.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
The idea of him not starting just was it just
defeated everything like.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
That too, because it's hard for those super like those
guys were mentioning like.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
And I know he did it because he was injured,
but Greg.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Hill he missed about six years of his prime.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Right, but he but he wound up having a good career,
you know what I mean, right, Yeah, So I get it.
The Lakers make no sense to me. You can't have
forty year old star and not go get whatever. Once
you get in bebel Lebron, that's the pre prerequisite.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
That's it, right, You got everything that's got to revolve
around that, and we all know that's just the way
it goes.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Otherwise you can't even bother. So it doesn't make sense
on the Lakers standpoint. This is crazy to me, all right,
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
nine nine six sixty three sixty nine. Are the Lakers
making a mistake not going after a third star at
(13:37):
the deadline, because that's what all the tea leaves are
saying that they're not going that route. We want to
hear from you eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Hey, Rob, it's Moncey's favorite artist.
Speaker 6 (14:14):
I can't believe Monty doesn't like Frank Sinatra. I'm sorry, Moncey,
you can't live that one down.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Listen.
Speaker 9 (14:21):
I know.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Do you get agreed from other people about Sinatra?
Speaker 6 (14:24):
You know, I just I.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 6 (14:28):
I don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 11 (14:29):
But I said to Robb Gi him picking the Mariah Carey,
So I was like, that was almost as bad as
me saying Frank Sinatra, almost as bad.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
I regret all my decisions.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
No, that was not.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Wow, you pick who are the other artists? I know,
who are the other artists from?
Speaker 11 (14:46):
Can you believe that Lady Giga, Lady Lady Gigo, Alicia
keys Z, No, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Jay Z jay Z was not there and Frank Sinatra.
Speaker 11 (15:00):
No, and Neil Diamond Neil, and then there was somebody else.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
But it wasn't was.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
It beyond?
Speaker 3 (15:11):
No, No, it wasn't beyond because obviously I was not.
But Ephraim, you cannot take one's gotta go.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Frank Sinatra, I told Manta, I said, do you know
he made fifty nine studio album.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
I was put on the spot.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
And sometimes I don't think things through.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
She's young. She doesn't know Frank Sinatra, and.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
That's also true, like I know who he is.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
But in my head I was like Lady Gaga, I mean,
Redpacking gone. All right, it is the odd couple.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
Rob Parker Ephraim Salaam coming to you live from the
Tirack dot com studios. Football season is heating up, and
Prize Picks is the best place to get real money
sports action while watching football. That's why I download Prize
Picks and use the code one hundred and get fifty
dollars instantly when you play five bucks. You heard me,
(16:05):
must be present in certain states. Visit prize picks dot
com for restrictions and details. All right, I'll telephone number
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven, nine, nine, six,
sixty three, sixty nine.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Are you with the Lakers?
Speaker 6 (16:21):
They're not all the way in even though they got
a forty year old soon to be forty year old Lebron.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
James Ephraim and I both think this is just a mistake.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
Once you get in Betty Lebron, you gotta give him
everything he has and needs from the try to win.
You don't have a forty year old guy worrying about
the future, right, It just doesn't make sense now.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Once you get in bed with him, you gotta cut.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Them there you go one hundred percent. All right, Tony
in La, you're in the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up, Tony?
Speaker 13 (16:52):
Hey? How you doing?
Speaker 9 (16:53):
Gentlemen?
Speaker 13 (16:55):
Problem?
Speaker 7 (16:55):
Hey?
Speaker 13 (16:56):
You know I've been I've been watching the Lakers. I
go all the way back this year. We will all
of that. And they've always had with maybe the leaguers
successful if they would get two of your top five
players in the game, they would surround them with good
role players. But those two players that were the top
five in the game with police the role players, the
role players couldn't be slackers or none of that. So
(17:17):
you go from West and and Will and Elgen then
you got Magic Kareem. Then you go Kobe Shack, and
so now do you go Kobe and see Kobe that
type of player the Lakers don't have for their suffering.
That player will police the role players. While the role
players couldn't come to be Liked'angelo Russell. They couldn't be
like those guys that's giving you half effort some night,
(17:40):
something like them. You couldn't be like that with Kobe.
You couldn't be like that with Shack, Magic Kareem. So unfortunately,
with Lebron, the players, I'm not saying they don't respect me,
one of the best ever played the game, but they're not.
They're gonna they're gonna do what they see. So if
your head is not giving you one hundred percent every.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
Night, I see on defense and we've seen that too,
right Tony exactly on defense, it's terrible.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
He's terrible. And so when you got was in there
and he's doing the same thing kind of some night
you get forty. Other nights you get fifteen. And so
when you got when you got players like that at
the top, the other players are gonna be like, well, hey,
if we go out and play hard, they're gonna get
the credit and they gonna and when we lose, they're
gonna blame us. So what are we doing? And so
(18:28):
now it's time really for the Lakers, I really think
to look at selling the team because they need you're
gonna in this era, you need three great flights and
they and they're not not gonna spend the money. Ain't
never done that. They're not gonna spend the money on
three great flights.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
And the thing with the Lakers, people don't realize, Thanks
Tony from you, notice that that's a mom and pop operation.
That they're not like a lot of these other teams
that have corporations behind them, big money.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
You know what I mean, They'll never sell the team.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
No, no, no, I don't. I don't think so either.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
I mean one of the biggest brands in the world.
Speaker 6 (19:01):
It's like the Bengals, you know what I mean, Like
that's a that's a mom.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
In politic it's a little bit bigger.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
Not only I but I mean but it's owned by individuals.
I mean, it's owned by individuals.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Yeah, I mean, if if it places two billion dollars,
what do the Lakers cost? R right football team money?
Es f Y, what I'm.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
Saying they're not rich unless they sell a team. That's
what I'm talking about. Like when you talk about Steve
you see what I'm saying, Steve Cohen, whether he sells
the Mets or not.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Right, it's filthy rich.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Ye Bomber right, filthy, same way, that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
The Lakers.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
They're well the ownership, right, is the Lakers, not anything else.
Raphael and Cincinnati. You're in the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up, Rafael?
Speaker 9 (19:48):
What's going on? Good brothers? Yeah? You know, for the
life of me, I don't think I've ever seen an
athlete's so ego driven where everything has to be his way.
I mean, King James, I don't. He needs to just
bring it down and accept that we get you got
all the records and this, and that he's only hanging
(20:09):
on because he wants to keep his double digit scoring going.
But he is the main reason why the Lakers can't
progress forward, because he's holding them hostas like a Burmese python.
Until that man leaves, the Lakers are going to just
acquiesce to him continuing on. But when the history books
are written on bron those histories they're not going to
(20:32):
forget this last chapter of his life, and you're going
to have a lot of players I think come out
like the reason why I didn't want to play with
dude because he all about himself, and I mean it's
some fortant he's he's one of the goats. But the dude, he,
like you guys said on defense, he's atrocious. I mean
he's going up, he's in the pay trying to go
(20:54):
for layup. People are pinning him against the board. I mean,
come on, man, Hakeem Barkley, you you go down the
list of the Grease and their last year two years
in the league, they were cool with scoring five point
seven point nine because they had already left their legacy
and fans were like, man, thanks for the minute. You
guys were great. Not bron He don't want to go
out like that.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
No doubt you'll be cool.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Appreciate it, Rob, thank you, appreciate you, no doubt.

ever played around with it or downloaded it on demand,
this is one of our great segments where we invite
people of this great network itself to come into the
ring and to take on the tag team duo, the
greatest hot takery artists in the industry, the Odd Couple
in a debate unlike any other with three major topics,
(22:41):
and for some reason, the entire staff here at Fox
Sports is shaking in their boots that Rob g has
to come back again to defend not only is last
title he won, by the way, but to show the
world why the odd couple may be losing their flame.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
What heint nobody? Why are you afraid of these guys?
Speaker 6 (23:02):
I don't understand it. We're a nice, easy going god.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
I don't get it.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
It's crazy to me. But shout us ROBG for coming
in the ring again, Ephraim, I'll give you a quick
rundown just so you know how this works, and everybody listening.
The odd Couple's gonna go two to one against robb G.
He has three hot takes, and how it goes is
robb G gets two chances to state his case of
exactly why he believes what he does. You go once,
e from Rob goes once, and then I will decide
(23:26):
who truly defines the argument the best.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Are you gentlemen ready?
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Yes, I'm gonna go first after everyone, Okay, if you
want to smoke.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
First, Rob.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Well Odd Couples already starting with a negative point because
Rob is telling me how to judge and hosts the segments.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
So I was trying to make it easier for.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Go ahead lose anyway, it don't matter to me.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
So point number one, Rob G has a actually crazy take.
He says Magic Johnson isn't a top five player. In
NBA history, ro G thirty seconds tell us wy, I
wish you.
Speaker 10 (24:05):
Would have gave me a hard win, Alex, because everybody
knows that Magic Johnson is my CW whatever pe close
warm personal friends. Tremer says, I ran it to him
at the Alpoyl look across the street. We've been really
good friends. But as good as Magic Johnson is, he's
number six all time, He's not top five. And the
reason why is you got guys like Kobe Bryant and
Tim Duncan ahead of him is because unlike Magic Johnson,
(24:26):
they played defense. Tim Duncan fifteen time All Defensive Team,
Kobe Bryant t walktime All Defensive Team, Magic Johnson zero.
All my man does is passed the ball to James
Worthy of crib dul jabbar racking.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Up chief stets.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
Please, you never saw a six foot nine point guard.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
Ever in the NBA Lebron Jame.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
When he showed up and showtime. Remember Kareem have been
dragging his behind for a couple of years. Here he
put new life. He played every position, he won them
a chair biship his rookie year. Are you kidding me?
He is one of the all time greats. He is
a tough.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Rob.
Speaker 10 (25:07):
I'm embarrassed that you would bring that up. You know why,
because like you didn't address the point. The point was
Magic Johnson was a point guard who only played one
side of the floor, and I didn't want to bring
this out on my haaf to you. If you go
back and watch the Showtime Lakers clips on YouTube, go
check it out.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
How often does Magic Johnson.
Speaker 10 (25:25):
Use his left hand? Rob it's right hand, right hand,
right hand? Back it down, right back. My man could
not cross over to his left hand. Rob it was
how are you going to be a top five player?
Use one hand?
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Forget?
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Magic Johnson changed basketball. Magic Johnson just made basketball exciting.
Magic Johnson and the Showtime Lakers put the NBA on
a map where games were played live. People were coming
out of the stands to see it. No one has
seen a six to nine point guard that could get
(25:59):
everybody involved and win championships, not only in college, but
come into the NBA where it was big, dominated and dominate.
There would be no any other conversation about Lebron or
anybody else when it came to being a point guard
if it weren't for Magic Johnson. After that, wow. Wow,
(26:19):
I will say this.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
At first, when Rob Parker started to give his reasoning,
I thought maybe Rob didn't remember the point about being
a top five there, so I thought maybe Rob was
having some fun. But then Ephraim was waiting in the
back to lower my guard to come in with the
actual facts of why Magic Johnson is indeed probably more
important to basketball than you can even argue Michael Jordan's.
So I'm giving this the couple of boys job boys.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Wow. He's being loaded over here, just so y'all.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
Know, even though he spends all that time on the
other side with Rob g he's not clouded.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
Ever that I'm the most reasonable man on the Odd
Cup and also pretty tall since I sit next to
Rob you all the time?
Speaker 4 (27:00):
What happens?
Speaker 5 (27:00):
So point two hot seat Odd Couple. Robb choking right now.
I told you what I tell you. I see your
face right now, and you're gonna be so mad. Next
when you're the best part from the best part for
people at home, Robbie is slowly moving to the right.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
You want to be outside of the camera frame.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
It's so funny. I know Elijah's going can you move over?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
Like? I'm sorry?
Speaker 6 (27:25):
Rob, who I'm not coughing your way.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
You're coughing into the atmosphere.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Go ahead, all right, question.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
I'm sorry, Rob, You've got two young kids, said Elisha.
I've never heard of him anyway, So hot seat take two,
Robbgi says brock Party.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Oh so fine.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Deserves to be the highest paid QB in NFL history,
Robbi throw.
Speaker 10 (27:45):
I don't even understand why this is controversial. Rob, you
are the one who is telling everybody year after year
when the gods got left badge and he doesn't use it.
That's the problem. Brock Party was an MVP candidate last year.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
Thanks Rob.
Speaker 10 (27:59):
He is the face of one of the most profitable
brands in all of football. It is his turn to
get paid if and when his contract is up to
get negotiated. If he can't get paid top of the market,
who can't. Because he's got more playoff wins than Dak Prescott.
He's already shown himself to be a playoff performer, and
(28:21):
he does well in the regular season.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
State for this sea when everyone was hurt.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
It's his turn to get paid. Pay him up?
Speaker 6 (28:26):
Are you kidding? Did you watch the first half against
the Lions last year?
Speaker 4 (28:29):
Did you watch that game he watched the second half.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
I'm just the first half.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
And this year, when he doesn't have all of his pieces,
he don't look nearly as great. And Jimmy Garoppolo somehow
someway didn't. He wind up going to the Super Bowl,
right all right with these save forty nine ers. So
I'm just saying, Brock Purty, he deserves to get paid.
But the best, the highest paid quarterback, he is not
that guy paid the.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Person, not the position.
Speaker 10 (28:58):
Rob. I'm not saying that he's better than Josh Allen,
Lamar and Burrow and Patro That's a different conversation. What
I'm saying is in order for this lead to continue
to prosper, so that guys can keep getting paid their value,
so that owners don't keep pocketing all the profits. When
it's your turn to get paid, you got to max
it out.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
And this is not a.
Speaker 10 (29:17):
Situation like Jimmy Garoppolo, who everybody knew was mediocre, just
happened to be his turn he got paid. Brock Party
last season was arguably the best quarterback in football. We're
enough for one really bad not on Christmas. He would
have been the MVP.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
There's never been a highest paid seventh round quarterback. A
quarterback to be highest paid in the league. Now, no
matter how good brock perty is, he was the last
pick in the draft, in the seventh rounder. As a
former seventh rounder. No matter how much leverage you think
you have, you don't have enough to make you one
(29:52):
of the highest are if not the highest paid quarterback
in the league or any position. He will get paid,
but he will always have that seventh round moniker over
his head. Tom Brady was maybe one time, for like
ten ten days, the highest paid quarterback. It never really happened,
and you can say he took less. But the fact
(30:13):
that the goat was never the highest paid quarterback, how
can break uh party be? Wow?
Speaker 5 (30:21):
I'm starting to learn that I'm an actual from salam
fan because this guy literally just tied his own personal
account experiences in drafting to counter not only your arguments,
but even make me say, dude, don't pay party pay
the position, right, Rob, that's round to odd couple against.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
When I'm telling you this thing is cocked and loaded.
Over here, I am for you talking about your eyeballs.
Give it above the way, see from above the way now,
Rob G. Now I know you produce the show. But
I have good news for you. This last one is
worth two and a half. I steal it.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
So this is anybody's game. Well, we just set up here.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
That's okay.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
We good, We're set up all right.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
A couple Fox Sports Radio, the Great ephrom Salam filling
in for Kelvin Washington, Rob Parker, Robb Gi on the
hot seat.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
Last one you got the show started? I thought it
said Chris Bussa no rip rest. Yeah, we just got
to shout him at one time. You know that once
in a while, you know, even though he stood me
up for brukfast, you know I had to put him down.
We had to let him go.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
Yeah, it's okay, one of the time.
Speaker 5 (31:28):
Yeah, last take, Rob G says watching sports on TV
is better than watching in person.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
I remember this take, Robgi go, that's right. I've had
this take for years now.
Speaker 10 (31:36):
Have you ever been to a game and you're trying
to enjoy it, but there's some drunk ass guy behind you.
He's bumping into your back, spilling beer everywhere, trying to
start a fight with somebody talking about a school he
never went to. But you want to start to like, no,
when I go to a game. I want to watch
the game and enjoy the game. And the way that
fans have gotten so unruly these days, I can't enjoy it.
I'd rather sit home and watch it on my seventy
(31:57):
five inch TV with a brew in one hand some
wings in the other hand, my legs kicked up, with
plenty of space, and if I have to go to
the bathroom, I gotta wait in line to do it.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Watch it at home, people, Okay.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
I no inflex is seventy five election. Just understand that.
Speaker 6 (32:12):
But pay as someone who has covered sports for thirty
nine years and has been to all the big games,
you can't tell me not being at the ballpark is
not better than watching on television. I don't care what
surround sound, how big a TV set is, it ain't
the same. When the stadium shakes and you feel people
(32:35):
melted together and all cheering or or booing or whatever
it is in Unison, it is the most unbelievable thing.
Speaker 9 (32:43):
Rob.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
I would agree with that.
Speaker 10 (32:45):
The problem is that's not the real experience when it
comes to going to sporting events. I can't say that
if I go to a Laker game, then I'm gonna
have all Laker fans around would have a good time.
Speaker 4 (32:53):
No, because there's gonna be a Celtics fan.
Speaker 10 (32:55):
There's gonna be some guy who's all hopped up on
Mountain dew trying to start fights with everybody. Like, let
me just enjoy the game. Want to bring my kids
and my watch to the game. I can enjoy it
and watch it. I don't got to worry about this
dude who's upset at home.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Not so as a person who likes to go to
games and likes to take my kids, my sons, giving
them that experience, to me outweighs anything else. And it
is not all about where you sit. Since you have
a seventy five inch TV at home, maybe splurge a
little bit, make it, make it an event. Where we sit,
(33:29):
there is none of that. And my kids enjoy it,
and it's all about them, letting them experience. They can
experience everything at home on TV, but being live and
watching their team is something they'll carry forever.
Speaker 10 (33:41):
Ephraim was this close to call me a broke ass.
I could hear it in his voice.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Rob Gene this close, rob ging. You know.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
I also was on the hot seat not that long ago,
and I had this exact same take, and I agree
with you one thousand percent. But you know, you know
what happened last week, Rogie, what Rob Parker was poor
shaming all of America.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
And you have a TV bigger than you.
Speaker 5 (34:02):
So I'm gonna say, Rob g odd Couple undefinitely, three rounds, undefeated, champion,
big shots fired.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Tell everybody how big is the thing?
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Is?
Speaker 3 (34:15):
I mean as TV is? I mean, I mean, come
on with that.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
I got a seventy five inch chick. I got a
sety five.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
When you said when you said that, I said, oh
I got him.
Speaker 10 (34:26):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
When you said that, I was like, oh I got him.
It's over man, all right?
Speaker 6 (34:30):

Speaker 3 (35:42):

Speaker 2 (35:50):
It's it's last called last call time on the oodcast.
Speaker 6 (35:56):
All right, it is last called time. And Jake from Kansas,
you're the last call on the Odd Couple on this
worship Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
What's up, Jake?
Speaker 13 (36:07):
I'm doing guys?
Speaker 12 (36:08):
How you doing this?
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (36:12):
I hat a take on this pull Kirk Cousins and
Michael Pennick's situation. I feel like it's a couple of
weeks coming. But when you're going from a righty to
a lefty, I think you got to start scheming offensive
line differently. You got to start flipping place and and
the way he was standing on the sideline, you were
just because you.
Speaker 12 (36:31):
Were wondering right there in that second half of they
were just going to go ahead and pop him in.
But I think I think they've been waiting a couple
of weeks and and talking internally about doing the flip.
Speaker 7 (36:42):
But it's not as simple as a plug and play
when you're going from a righty to a leftie with
pulling guards and the running backs out in the flat
and everything else.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Yeah, you make a great point. It is different. I
remember Michael Vick's first year and Chris Chandler still of
the Year, and then Mike Vick came in, and Mike
was a left handed, dynamic talent, but it switched me
from being, uh, the front side tackle to the backside tackle.
So it makes a huge difference in protections, it makes
(37:14):
a huge difference in hand off lanes, everything. So you
got a great point there.
Speaker 6 (37:20):
No doubt from let's wrap up the show on this
real quick. Dion says his.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
Oh is that it are we done?
Speaker 7 (37:29):

And you should have stayed yourself home when you were
doing that?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Just what, rob G? Where was I was about at
the exit?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah? You were in the car.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I was in the exit.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
I did the show from the car.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
All right, here we go. Let's talk about the Lakers
robbed you the story? Please? Was that in the Athletic
right with.
Speaker 10 (06:33):
Yovant friend of the show is just here an hour two?
In his latest column discussing the Lakers plans at the
trade deadline and who they may or may not target,
one of the things that Jovonne wrote is that it
is quote highly unlikely that the Lakers would look to
acquire a third star to play alongside Lebron and ad
(06:53):
mentioned guys like Brandon Ingram, zach Lavine, Jimmy Butler not interested. Instead,
there were likely to target role players like Drian.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Finny Smith, Cam Johnson, so on and so forth.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
None of that makes any sense? Okay, what the Lakers here?
Speaker 8 (07:11):
From?
Speaker 6 (07:11):
Here's my issue when you have a forty year old player, right,
why aren't you all the way in?
Speaker 3 (07:22):
If it's just this year and.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Maybe one more year, shouldn't you have to be all
the way in?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Otherwise, what's the purpose of having a lebron jay?
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Nothing?
Speaker 6 (07:33):
Ticket sales? Keep hearing ticket sales. I don't remember the
Lakers ever having empty seats.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
They don't, they don't. Well maybe during the Sedell threet
Eldon Chance Parker.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yea, hell was tough, man, It was a tough watch.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
I didn't mean to choke you up there. I see
you coughing there. I didn't mean to get you. Get
yourself together. Okay, thank god for the mute button. Just
just so you know, everybody, Robs not sick any way.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Just because I just swallowed.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
The water coughing, I would be. I would die if
I was in that I would oh my god, if
I was sitting in that room with you, Rob. You look,
I want to explain this to people. Now, keep going,
I'm a hyper hypochondriacal My wife is like, you're crazy.
(08:23):
But something happened to me that made me this way,
all right.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
It had to be an experience.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
It must have been when the super Bowl was in
Miami and Prince was out there doing the Purple Rain
and all of that. I had an event that I
did at the super Bowl, shook a lot of hands,
took a lot of pictures, all of that, and I
got beyond sick I'm talking about And it happened instantly,
and I was like, oh, and it just changed my
(08:50):
whole perspective on germs and touching stuff and so I
from then. I've never been sick like that before. And
I'm cool.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
But you know, it's crazy.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
And and Rob G will tell you I am the
ultimate people person. How many rob g on social media?
I don't have lunch with one person. I've lunch with
ten people. I'm dead serious. I'm one of those people.
I like to be around a lot of people. And
I've never been in that situation.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
That's why.
Speaker 6 (09:23):
And I do wash my hands and use uh, you know,
the towellets and all that and and I'm very conscious
of it. And I even did it way before COVID,
you know, like I used to when I when I
clean my house, my apartment, I've always done the doorknobs
and the refrigerator handle and all. Ephrom forever I've never
(09:46):
touched skin to a public restroom. I'm talking about to
a public restroom doorknob or toilet or anything. I've never
I'm dead serious. I haven't either, So I know what
you're saying about that in Germ. So I do feel that,
But I'm not one of those people who is afraid
(10:07):
of other people.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
I was trying to spit onto the microphone someone else
has to use later. I didn't spin on a way
it's fun. It's it's fun. Like in terms of the Lakers,
like I'm I'm disheartened. I'm a huge Laker fan. We
know this, the fact that, yes, this is beginning to
be the end for Lebron James. You must go all
(10:31):
in now. Is one superstar, Like say, I wouldn't consider
Zach Lavine a superstar, right, but he can get buckets.
He's a score. You can count on him to carry
the load in terms of scoring. I think that's what
I do. Like Cam Johnson from Brooklyn though, like I
(10:54):
just need someone to be consistent. If Rory was consistent,
then okay, if some of the other pieces that if
oh my god, if D'Angelo Russell could give us what
Jordan Clarkson gave gives Utah off the bench. We would
need to be having this conversation. Maybe that's the reason
(11:16):
that Russell's been on ten teams. Oh my god, I'm
not calling him a crackhead, but some of the decision
making and shots he's taking is crackish. Okay, like it.
It baffles me. I just want him to be consistent.
Come off the bench. You have the green light, but
(11:38):
be locked in at least man Jordan Clarkson. Look, I
love and I hate that he's not with us anymore,
but he's found his place in the league. He comes
off the bench in its instant offense, instant green light
doesn't really have to guard anybody. Just give us that
offensive punch that we me when Lebron or a d
(12:01):
or somebody goes to the bench.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
It's really a great spot if you embrace it. Spot,
if you embrace it because that is what you want
to be done, and you just come out there.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
At Williams, Lou Williams was great. Oh my god, you
know what I think.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
You remember when the Pistils traded for Alon Iverson and
he just could not accept that role. But he would
have been grave and it could have played for a
number of years, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Exactly, But he didn't.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
The idea of him not starting just was it just
defeated everything like.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
That too, because it's hard for those super like those
guys were mentioning like.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
And I know he did it because he was injured,
but Greg.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Hill he missed about six years of his prime.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Right, but he but he wound up having a good career,
you know what I mean, right, Yeah, So I get it.
The Lakers make no sense to me. You can't have
forty year old star and not go get whatever. Once
you get in bebel Lebron, that's the pre prerequisite.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
That's it, right, You got everything that's got to revolve
around that, and we all know that's just the way
it goes.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Otherwise you can't even bother. So it doesn't make sense
on the Lakers standpoint. This is crazy to me, all right,
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
nine nine six sixty three sixty nine. Are the Lakers
making a mistake not going after a third star at
(13:37):
the deadline, because that's what all the tea leaves are
saying that they're not going that route. We want to
hear from you eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox

Hey, Rob, it's Moncey's favorite artist.
Speaker 6 (14:14):
I can't believe Monty doesn't like Frank Sinatra. I'm sorry, Moncey,
you can't live that one down.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Listen.
Speaker 9 (14:21):
I know.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Do you get agreed from other people about Sinatra?
Speaker 6 (14:24):
You know, I just I.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 6 (14:28):
I don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 11 (14:29):
But I said to Robb Gi him picking the Mariah Carey,
So I was like, that was almost as bad as
me saying Frank Sinatra, almost as bad.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
I regret all my decisions.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
No, that was not.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Wow, you pick who are the other artists? I know,
who are the other artists from?
Speaker 11 (14:46):
Can you believe that Lady Giga, Lady Lady Gigo, Alicia
keys Z, No, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Jay Z jay Z was not there and Frank Sinatra.
Speaker 11 (15:00):
No, and Neil Diamond Neil, and then there was somebody else.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
But it wasn't was.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
It beyond?
Speaker 3 (15:11):
No, No, it wasn't beyond because obviously I was not.
But Ephraim, you cannot take one's gotta go.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Frank Sinatra, I told Manta, I said, do you know
he made fifty nine studio album.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
I was put on the spot.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
And sometimes I don't think things through.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
She's young. She doesn't know Frank Sinatra, and.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
That's also true, like I know who he is.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
But in my head I was like Lady Gaga, I mean,
Redpacking gone. All right, it is the odd couple.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
Rob Parker Ephraim Salaam coming to you live from the
Tirack dot com studios. Football season is heating up, and
Prize Picks is the best place to get real money
sports action while watching football. That's why I download Prize
Picks and use the code one hundred and get fifty
dollars instantly when you play five bucks. You heard me,
(16:05):

com for restrictions and details. All right, I'll telephone number
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven, nine, nine, six,
sixty three, sixty nine.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Are you with the Lakers?
Speaker 6 (16:21):
They're not all the way in even though they got
a forty year old soon to be forty year old Lebron.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
James Ephraim and I both think this is just a mistake.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
Once you get in Betty Lebron, you gotta give him
everything he has and needs from the try to win.
You don't have a forty year old guy worrying about
the future, right, It just doesn't make sense now.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Once you get in bed with him, you gotta cut.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Them there you go one hundred percent. All right, Tony
in La, you're in the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up, Tony?
Speaker 13 (16:52):
Hey? How you doing?
Speaker 9 (16:53):
Gentlemen?
Speaker 13 (16:55):
Problem?
Speaker 7 (16:55):
Hey?
Speaker 13 (16:56):
You know I've been I've been watching the Lakers. I
go all the way back this year. We will all
of that. And they've always had with maybe the leaguers
successful if they would get two of your top five
players in the game, they would surround them with good
role players. But those two players that were the top
five in the game with police the role players, the
role players couldn't be slackers or none of that. So
(17:17):
you go from West and and Will and Elgen then
you got Magic Kareem. Then you go Kobe Shack, and
so now do you go Kobe and see Kobe that
type of player the Lakers don't have for their suffering.
That player will police the role players. While the role
players couldn't come to be Liked'angelo Russell. They couldn't be
like those guys that's giving you half effort some night,
(17:40):
something like them. You couldn't be like that with Kobe.
You couldn't be like that with Shack, Magic Kareem. So unfortunately,
with Lebron, the players, I'm not saying they don't respect me,
one of the best ever played the game, but they're not.
They're gonna they're gonna do what they see. So if
your head is not giving you one hundred percent every.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
Night, I see on defense and we've seen that too,
right Tony exactly on defense, it's terrible.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
He's terrible. And so when you got was in there
and he's doing the same thing kind of some night
you get forty. Other nights you get fifteen. And so
when you got when you got players like that at
the top, the other players are gonna be like, well, hey,
if we go out and play hard, they're gonna get
the credit and they gonna and when we lose, they're
gonna blame us. So what are we doing? And so
(18:28):
now it's time really for the Lakers, I really think
to look at selling the team because they need you're
gonna in this era, you need three great flights and
they and they're not not gonna spend the money. Ain't
never done that. They're not gonna spend the money on
three great flights.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
And the thing with the Lakers, people don't realize, Thanks
Tony from you, notice that that's a mom and pop operation.
That they're not like a lot of these other teams
that have corporations behind them, big money.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
You know what I mean, They'll never sell the team.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
No, no, no, I don't. I don't think so either.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
I mean one of the biggest brands in the world.
Speaker 6 (19:01):
It's like the Bengals, you know what I mean, Like
that's a that's a mom.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
In politic it's a little bit bigger.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
Not only I but I mean but it's owned by individuals.
I mean, it's owned by individuals.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Yeah, I mean, if if it places two billion dollars,
what do the Lakers cost? R right football team money?
Es f Y, what I'm.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
Saying they're not rich unless they sell a team. That's
what I'm talking about. Like when you talk about Steve
you see what I'm saying, Steve Cohen, whether he sells
the Mets or not.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Right, it's filthy rich.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Ye Bomber right, filthy, same way, that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
The Lakers.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
They're well the ownership, right, is the Lakers, not anything else.
Raphael and Cincinnati. You're in the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up, Rafael?
Speaker 9 (19:48):
What's going on? Good brothers? Yeah? You know, for the
life of me, I don't think I've ever seen an
athlete's so ego driven where everything has to be his way.
I mean, King James, I don't. He needs to just
bring it down and accept that we get you got
all the records and this, and that he's only hanging
(20:09):
on because he wants to keep his double digit scoring going.
But he is the main reason why the Lakers can't
progress forward, because he's holding them hostas like a Burmese python.
Until that man leaves, the Lakers are going to just
acquiesce to him continuing on. But when the history books
are written on bron those histories they're not going to
(20:32):
forget this last chapter of his life, and you're going
to have a lot of players I think come out
like the reason why I didn't want to play with
dude because he all about himself, and I mean it's
some fortant he's he's one of the goats. But the dude, he,
like you guys said on defense, he's atrocious. I mean
he's going up, he's in the pay trying to go
(20:54):
for layup. People are pinning him against the board. I mean,
come on, man, Hakeem Barkley, you you go down the
list of the Grease and their last year two years
in the league, they were cool with scoring five point
seven point nine because they had already left their legacy
and fans were like, man, thanks for the minute. You
guys were great. Not bron He don't want to go
out like that.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
No doubt you'll be cool.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Appreciate it, Rob, thank you, appreciate you, no doubt.
Speaker 6 (21:19):
All right, Coming up next the Hot Seat with Rob Garra,
Rob G. That's right, it's going to be interesting with
his crazy hot takes. For first, let's get you caught up.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Odd Couple
with Chris Brussard and Rob Parker weekdays at seven pm
Eastern four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Rob Parker along with Ephram Salaam and guess what Ephram
You ready? It is time for the Hot Seat with
Rob Gary Damn Son.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
The current temperature the Odd Couple are making it hot
in here, damn hot. Time to sit your butt down in.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
Cooking the Hot Seat, Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
fans of sports everywhere, including the glorious Odd Couple with
Robert Lee Parker Junior Salad. This is the segment he from.
If you've never heard it, been a part of it,
(22:20):
ever played around with it or downloaded it on demand,
this is one of our great segments where we invite
people of this great network itself to come into the
ring and to take on the tag team duo, the
greatest hot takery artists in the industry, the Odd Couple
in a debate unlike any other with three major topics,
(22:41):
and for some reason, the entire staff here at Fox
Sports is shaking in their boots that Rob g has
to come back again to defend not only is last
title he won, by the way, but to show the
world why the odd couple may be losing their flame.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
What heint nobody? Why are you afraid of these guys?
Speaker 6 (23:02):
I don't understand it. We're a nice, easy going god.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
I don't get it.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
It's crazy to me. But shout us ROBG for coming
in the ring again, Ephraim, I'll give you a quick
rundown just so you know how this works, and everybody listening.
The odd Couple's gonna go two to one against robb G.
He has three hot takes, and how it goes is
robb G gets two chances to state his case of
exactly why he believes what he does. You go once,
e from Rob goes once, and then I will decide
(23:26):
who truly defines the argument the best.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Are you gentlemen ready?
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Yes, I'm gonna go first after everyone, Okay, if you
want to smoke.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
First, Rob.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Well Odd Couples already starting with a negative point because
Rob is telling me how to judge and hosts the segments.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
So I was trying to make it easier for.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Go ahead lose anyway, it don't matter to me.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
So point number one, Rob G has a actually crazy take.
He says Magic Johnson isn't a top five player. In
NBA history, ro G thirty seconds tell us wy, I
wish you.
Speaker 10 (24:05):
Would have gave me a hard win, Alex, because everybody
knows that Magic Johnson is my CW whatever pe close
warm personal friends. Tremer says, I ran it to him
at the Alpoyl look across the street. We've been really
good friends. But as good as Magic Johnson is, he's
number six all time, He's not top five. And the
reason why is you got guys like Kobe Bryant and
Tim Duncan ahead of him is because unlike Magic Johnson,
(24:26):
they played defense. Tim Duncan fifteen time All Defensive Team,
Kobe Bryant t walktime All Defensive Team, Magic Johnson zero.
All my man does is passed the ball to James
Worthy of crib dul jabbar racking.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Up chief stets.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
Please, you never saw a six foot nine point guard.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
Ever in the NBA Lebron Jame.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
When he showed up and showtime. Remember Kareem have been
dragging his behind for a couple of years. Here he
put new life. He played every position, he won them
a chair biship his rookie year. Are you kidding me?
He is one of the all time greats. He is
a tough.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Rob.
Speaker 10 (25:07):
I'm embarrassed that you would bring that up. You know why,
because like you didn't address the point. The point was
Magic Johnson was a point guard who only played one
side of the floor, and I didn't want to bring
this out on my haaf to you. If you go
back and watch the Showtime Lakers clips on YouTube, go
check it out.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
How often does Magic Johnson.
Speaker 10 (25:25):
Use his left hand? Rob it's right hand, right hand,
right hand? Back it down, right back. My man could
not cross over to his left hand. Rob it was
how are you going to be a top five player?
Use one hand?
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Forget?
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Magic Johnson changed basketball. Magic Johnson just made basketball exciting.
Magic Johnson and the Showtime Lakers put the NBA on
a map where games were played live. People were coming
out of the stands to see it. No one has
seen a six to nine point guard that could get
(25:59):
everybody involved and win championships, not only in college, but
come into the NBA where it was big, dominated and dominate.
There would be no any other conversation about Lebron or
anybody else when it came to being a point guard
if it weren't for Magic Johnson. After that, wow. Wow,
(26:19):
I will say this.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
At first, when Rob Parker started to give his reasoning,
I thought maybe Rob didn't remember the point about being
a top five there, so I thought maybe Rob was
having some fun. But then Ephraim was waiting in the
back to lower my guard to come in with the
actual facts of why Magic Johnson is indeed probably more
important to basketball than you can even argue Michael Jordan's.
So I'm giving this the couple of boys job boys.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Wow. He's being loaded over here, just so y'all.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
Know, even though he spends all that time on the
other side with Rob g he's not clouded.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
Ever that I'm the most reasonable man on the Odd
Cup and also pretty tall since I sit next to
Rob you all the time?
Speaker 4 (27:00):
What happens?
Speaker 5 (27:00):
So point two hot seat Odd Couple. Robb choking right now.
I told you what I tell you. I see your
face right now, and you're gonna be so mad. Next
when you're the best part from the best part for
people at home, Robbie is slowly moving to the right.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
You want to be outside of the camera frame.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
It's so funny. I know Elijah's going can you move over?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
Like? I'm sorry?
Speaker 6 (27:25):
Rob, who I'm not coughing your way.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
You're coughing into the atmosphere.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Go ahead, all right, question.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
I'm sorry, Rob, You've got two young kids, said Elisha.
I've never heard of him anyway, So hot seat take two,
Robbgi says brock Party.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Oh so fine.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Deserves to be the highest paid QB in NFL history,
Robbi throw.
Speaker 10 (27:45):
I don't even understand why this is controversial. Rob, you
are the one who is telling everybody year after year
when the gods got left badge and he doesn't use it.
That's the problem. Brock Party was an MVP candidate last year.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
Thanks Rob.
Speaker 10 (27:59):
He is the face of one of the most profitable
brands in all of football. It is his turn to
get paid if and when his contract is up to
get negotiated. If he can't get paid top of the market,
who can't. Because he's got more playoff wins than Dak Prescott.
He's already shown himself to be a playoff performer, and
(28:21):
he does well in the regular season.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
State for this sea when everyone was hurt.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
It's his turn to get paid. Pay him up?
Speaker 6 (28:26):
Are you kidding? Did you watch the first half against
the Lions last year?
Speaker 4 (28:29):
Did you watch that game he watched the second half.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
I'm just the first half.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
And this year, when he doesn't have all of his pieces,
he don't look nearly as great. And Jimmy Garoppolo somehow
someway didn't. He wind up going to the Super Bowl,
right all right with these save forty nine ers. So
I'm just saying, Brock Purty, he deserves to get paid.
But the best, the highest paid quarterback, he is not
that guy paid the.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Person, not the position.
Speaker 10 (28:58):
Rob. I'm not saying that he's better than Josh Allen,
Lamar and Burrow and Patro That's a different conversation. What
I'm saying is in order for this lead to continue
to prosper, so that guys can keep getting paid their value,
so that owners don't keep pocketing all the profits. When
it's your turn to get paid, you got to max
it out.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
And this is not a.
Speaker 10 (29:17):
Situation like Jimmy Garoppolo, who everybody knew was mediocre, just
happened to be his turn he got paid. Brock Party
last season was arguably the best quarterback in football. We're
enough for one really bad not on Christmas. He would
have been the MVP.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
There's never been a highest paid seventh round quarterback. A
quarterback to be highest paid in the league. Now, no
matter how good brock perty is, he was the last
pick in the draft, in the seventh rounder. As a
former seventh rounder. No matter how much leverage you think
you have, you don't have enough to make you one
(29:52):
of the highest are if not the highest paid quarterback
in the league or any position. He will get paid,
but he will always have that seventh round moniker over
his head. Tom Brady was maybe one time, for like
ten ten days, the highest paid quarterback. It never really happened,
and you can say he took less. But the fact
(30:13):
that the goat was never the highest paid quarterback, how
can break uh party be? Wow?
Speaker 5 (30:21):
I'm starting to learn that I'm an actual from salam
fan because this guy literally just tied his own personal
account experiences in drafting to counter not only your arguments,
but even make me say, dude, don't pay party pay
the position, right, Rob, that's round to odd couple against.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
When I'm telling you this thing is cocked and loaded.
Over here, I am for you talking about your eyeballs.
Give it above the way, see from above the way now,
Rob G. Now I know you produce the show. But
I have good news for you. This last one is
worth two and a half. I steal it.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
So this is anybody's game. Well, we just set up here.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
That's okay.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
We good, We're set up all right.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
A couple Fox Sports Radio, the Great ephrom Salam filling
in for Kelvin Washington, Rob Parker, Robb Gi on the
hot seat.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
Last one you got the show started? I thought it
said Chris Bussa no rip rest. Yeah, we just got
to shout him at one time. You know that once
in a while, you know, even though he stood me
up for brukfast, you know I had to put him down.
We had to let him go.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
Yeah, it's okay, one of the time.
Speaker 5 (31:28):
Yeah, last take, Rob G says watching sports on TV
is better than watching in person.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
I remember this take, Robgi go, that's right. I've had
this take for years now.
Speaker 10 (31:36):
Have you ever been to a game and you're trying
to enjoy it, but there's some drunk ass guy behind you.
He's bumping into your back, spilling beer everywhere, trying to
start a fight with somebody talking about a school he
never went to. But you want to start to like, no,
when I go to a game. I want to watch
the game and enjoy the game. And the way that
fans have gotten so unruly these days, I can't enjoy it.
I'd rather sit home and watch it on my seventy
(31:57):
five inch TV with a brew in one hand some
wings in the other hand, my legs kicked up, with
plenty of space, and if I have to go to
the bathroom, I gotta wait in line to do it.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Watch it at home, people, Okay.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
I no inflex is seventy five election. Just understand that.
Speaker 6 (32:12):
But pay as someone who has covered sports for thirty
nine years and has been to all the big games,
you can't tell me not being at the ballpark is
not better than watching on television. I don't care what
surround sound, how big a TV set is, it ain't
the same. When the stadium shakes and you feel people
(32:35):
melted together and all cheering or or booing or whatever
it is in Unison, it is the most unbelievable thing.
Speaker 9 (32:43):
Rob.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
I would agree with that.
Speaker 10 (32:45):
The problem is that's not the real experience when it
comes to going to sporting events. I can't say that
if I go to a Laker game, then I'm gonna
have all Laker fans around would have a good time.
Speaker 4 (32:53):
No, because there's gonna be a Celtics fan.
Speaker 10 (32:55):
There's gonna be some guy who's all hopped up on
Mountain dew trying to start fights with everybody. Like, let
me just enjoy the game. Want to bring my kids
and my watch to the game. I can enjoy it
and watch it. I don't got to worry about this
dude who's upset at home.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Not so as a person who likes to go to
games and likes to take my kids, my sons, giving
them that experience, to me outweighs anything else. And it
is not all about where you sit. Since you have
a seventy five inch TV at home, maybe splurge a
little bit, make it, make it an event. Where we sit,
(33:29):
there is none of that. And my kids enjoy it,
and it's all about them, letting them experience. They can
experience everything at home on TV, but being live and
watching their team is something they'll carry forever.
Speaker 10 (33:41):
Ephraim was this close to call me a broke ass.
I could hear it in his voice.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Rob Gene this close, rob ging. You know.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
I also was on the hot seat not that long ago,
and I had this exact same take, and I agree
with you one thousand percent. But you know, you know
what happened last week, Rogie, what Rob Parker was poor
shaming all of America.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
And you have a TV bigger than you.
Speaker 5 (34:02):
So I'm gonna say, Rob g odd Couple undefinitely, three rounds, undefeated, champion,
big shots fired.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Tell everybody how big is the thing?
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Is?
Speaker 3 (34:15):
I mean as TV is? I mean, I mean, come
on with that.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
I got a seventy five inch chick. I got a
sety five.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
When you said when you said that, I said, oh
I got him.
Speaker 10 (34:26):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
When you said that, I was like, oh I got him.
It's over man, all right?

you're the last call on the Odd Couple on this
worship Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
What's up, Jake?
Speaker 13 (36:07):
I'm doing guys?
Speaker 12 (36:08):
How you doing this?
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (36:12):
I hat a take on this pull Kirk Cousins and
Michael Pennick's situation. I feel like it's a couple of
weeks coming. But when you're going from a righty to
a lefty, I think you got to start scheming offensive
line differently. You got to start flipping place and and
the way he was standing on the sideline, you were
just because you.
Speaker 12 (36:31):
Were wondering right there in that second half of they
were just going to go ahead and pop him in.
But I think I think they've been waiting a couple
of weeks and and talking internally about doing the flip.
Speaker 7 (36:42):
But it's not as simple as a plug and play
when you're going from a righty to a leftie with
pulling guards and the running backs out in the flat
and everything else.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Yeah, you make a great point. It is different. I
remember Michael Vick's first year and Chris Chandler still of
the Year, and then Mike Vick came in, and Mike
was a left handed, dynamic talent, but it switched me
from being, uh, the front side tackle to the backside tackle.
So it makes a huge difference in protections, it makes
(37:14):
a huge difference in hand off lanes, everything. So you
got a great point there.
Speaker 6 (37:20):
No doubt from let's wrap up the show on this
real quick. Dion says his.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
Oh is that it are we done?
Speaker 7 (37:29):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (37:29):
I didn't realize the show was over that quick.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
No, it's over, man, And I like to just walk
out of here with the victory destroying UH. Robbie super
producer Rob G. It's what I do.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
I saw that.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
When you tap me in, I come in right
Speaker 6 (37:45):
