eight minutes our first fan hot seat segment. It's about

(01:28):
to get it, that's right. EMMITTT from Olympia who calls
the show frequently. Yeah, Emmett is cool and he's going
too good on the hot seat and uh, we'll get scorched.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
But he.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
So you're gonna do that.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
You like just first caller. You like to be a
competitive plus. Uh, otherwise they get smoked. One's gotta go
as well.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
A Val Kilmer addition, who just passed sixty five years
old of pneumonia and he had have some.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Health throat throat cancer. That's why I have you've been
keeping up. But you know, remember the most recent Top Gun.
You know, they kind of portrayed him dying of cancer,
which ultimately would be not cancer, but ultimately dying soon after.
But yeah, so we'll get to that in a little bit.
Well we'll have a little you know, pay tribute to
Val Kilmer. So they had him in the movie that
was yeah, yeah, So in Top Gun they couldn't hide

(02:19):
the fact that he had to avoid issues and he
had to wear a little thing over his throat to
cover up scars because he had a hole or something. Yeah,
he had throat surgery. Many throat surgeries because he had
throat cancer. He lost his voice because of it. So
in the movie he was great. How they did it.
He's iceman and he had some you know, cancer in it.
So Tom Cruise's character Maverick goes to see him because
he needed some guidance, and he shows him love. He's

(02:41):
a man. I can't believe He've been going through so much.
It's great to see you. And they kind of hug
and have to embraces moment. Then he would ultimately pass
away in the movie, and then fast forward what year
two maybe less you know he passed.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Away in real life.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
It was a good way to pay tribute to him,
not asking him to do too much because physically he couldn't.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
I just thought of real quick Red Fox when he died.
He died of a heart attack on the set of
the show he was doing. Everybody thought he was being funny.
That being funny thing he always did, and the thing
that he did on that show, like Elizabeth, I'm coming

(03:18):
to join you having a heart attack, and and to
think that he would die and that.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
That is that's me and this is that's unbelieving, not
being funny. I got another one that's that's all.

Speaker 5 (03:30):
What's my name? What's my man named? Paul Walker?

Speaker 4 (03:32):
Right?

Speaker 5 (03:33):
You remember how Paul Walker.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
The Fast and Furies died literally going fast and somebody
driving you know, got out of control and and and
crash unfortunately and terribly and tragically that way. Yeah, literally,
somebody riding with somebody driving off fast and crazy, goes off,
crashes into something and burns.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
He couldn't get out, you know, they couldn't get out
of the car.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Literally, fast and furious and by far the most thing
that he was known for. So the irony sometimes is
stick and it's scary. Yeah, it's scary at time. So
we'll get to we'll do val camera in just a
little bit. One's got to go edition a little bit
later on in the show.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
And as we know, last night Steph Curry went off
fifty two points, Chef Curry with the pot and uh,
you know, he had a cooking last night. And when
he does, it seemed like they just don't stop falling in.
And we know we've had all conversations about Steph and
about whether you want him to have the big shot
when the game's on the line. We both kind of

(04:27):
say no, would you agree we agree on on I'm
talking about.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
Big shot breakers.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
He's one of the greatest back breakers, but a buzzer
beater or the big shot. No, it's just too hard
for him to get it shot off like and and
he's had when he's had shots. I mean, now that's
the thing people say, well he can't. Well he's had
fourteen shots like at the end, and he hadn't made
any of them. So so you can't say, you know,
I mean, I know what you're saying, Like, he's not

(04:53):
that guy you.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
Could get the ball to and get right.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Even when he's had a look, he hasn't been able
to make it.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
But but he's he's a backbreaker. He's a flurry kind
of guy, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
But I'll say this, in watching the Warriors and what
has happened, this kind of remindment. I'm not saying that
winning the championship or anything like that.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
I think I know where you're going here.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
I'm not saying like, but this seems like again like
when Kevin Durant.

Speaker 5 (05:20):
Showed up, that's not where you thought you're going.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Okay, took Steph's team and lunch money, and now here
comes Jimmy Butler to the rescue. This team was dead
and buried. That's what Steph Curry's going all the point
they lost, Go google it, Google Google it.

Speaker 5 (05:42):
Google did have us in a choke. Hold go Google Google,
Google Google it.

Speaker 6 (05:48):
Do the.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
Exactly. Just put an in on the end of that Googogle.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Okay, man, Remember we used to ask Jeeves anybody old
enough to remember, ask you're nothing.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
I wanted you that one more time for clean Drop.

Speaker 7 (06:04):
The google Google, Google google it.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
Thank you. There you go, Google it.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
And my point is this year they lost by forty
points in the game. It's San Francisco Smith's act. I mean,
you know, they were a lot of bad games. They
were really really bad. Dude, here comes Jimmy Butler. Now
they're winning and Steph's going off. I think it's fair
to say that Jimmy Butler saved Steph Curry this year.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Jimmy Butler is to the Warriors, potentially Elijah makes sure
you put that in caps. What Rashid Wallace was to
that Pistons team.

Speaker 7 (06:44):
Google Google Google It was that me, Google Google.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
You know what me?

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, that's you that met not like me. That was
you eleven seconds ago. Why are we asking was it you.
It was literally, it doesn't sound like me.

Speaker 7 (07:01):
Google, Google, Google, this is why.

Speaker 5 (07:03):
Rob Parker is the best Alex.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Rob Parker literally did it to the point you actually
stopped him, said do it again. He did it again.
Seventeen seconds later goes, wait, that was me. You can't
make this up.

Speaker 8 (07:15):
Bo.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Back to what I was saying before you forgot you,
You're gonna have amnj on yourself.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
I' wasn't sure.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
So what I mean is the Pistons were already a
good team, right, they're a good team, but just something
was missing. They knew, we want to finally get over
the hump money, make some noise in the postseason, not
just get in the postseason. And they made a trade
and they got Rashid Wallace and it was like, oh shoot, okay.
They messed around and got Rashid Wallace, and it was
that thing they needed defensively, a guy that can go

(07:45):
down in the post and get a bucket. And it
just took the team to another level. And obviously the
Warriors aren't as deep as some of the teams in
the West. They got a really bad start in comparison
to teams in the West, but Jimmy Butler did infuse
something in them that it's like man all of a
sudd But they get the right team in the postseason,
they would be a problem.

Speaker 9 (08:03):
Now.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
I don't think they beat the Upper one to two
or three, but they can beat you know, another four
or five teams in the Western Conference in the playoffs.
Because Jimmy Butler, it's not so much with Jimmy himself
is doing is how he is freed up. Steph Stephan
was out there. Listen, Steph was out there solo dolo.
Because we know Draymond out there shooting with a backpack
on as the streets say. Wiggins wasn't doing that. He

(08:25):
was going through some I don't know what, some personal issues.
Wiggins wasn't it. And then their younger guys Moody in
the game, they just weren't doing it. Kamingo was out
with injuries like he was out there by himself, and
Steve Kerr was feeling bad and sad for Steph.

Speaker 5 (08:39):
Then they go and get.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Jimmy and now you've got a legitimate guy that when
he gets the ball in the mid range, he's one
of those guys we talk about get at the elbow.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
The other team's got to take a quick look. Make
sure that a because Jimmy can get buckets. Let me
make sure you ain't alone on the island.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
They need help.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
You do that With Steph, well, he's gonna go twelve
for twenty from three like he did last night and
last thing. Steph is average twenty eight a game, basically
six assists and four boards in the twenty games since
Jimmy Butler has been on the team. So Steph has
been able to just get freer, just an extra few shots.
I don't have to worry about being double a triple team.

(09:14):
That extra bit, the extra blow I got. Remember that,
Steph Curry extraly said, hell man, Steph is tired right now.
He's doing everything. He's literally all we got. And so
now I get that extra break. Now I get that
extra two to three minutes of rest. I get that
extra time out where I can you know, go, I
can go to the next time out in rest. Those
things are huge for a guy that is thirty seven.
Sometimes we forget Steph Curry's thirty seven people and he's

(09:36):
gonna need a little help. And having Jimmy Butler there
was an infusion in him a lifeline that if they
feel like they have one fighting chance, this is it.
And that's why Jimmy Butler was crucial.

Speaker 5 (09:48):
Again. He's average of twenty eight now since Jimmy been
there in the twenty games.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
And I think they're like, uh, like fifteen and three
or something, fifteen four, sixteen. Can you look exactly what
it is bo I want to say, like something, Uh,
I'll get the record. I think when they both played,
ye and they both played, they've only lost twice. I
think something like that.

Speaker 5 (10:04):
I think they're like thirteen or fourteen and three now that.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
But what do you make of Yeah, of Jimmy Butler
saving Steph season, saving the Warriors, I mean they were
even when he got there, they still might have fallen
into a play in. But now Memphis is dropping back
with their losing streak after.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
The coach was fired. I think they've lost four or something.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
They're a handful of teams that don't want to play them, right,
there's a handful of teams. Steph he's like he was dead.
He was remember you started to feel bad for him.
It was at the end. He was bad.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
I remember there was a conversation earlier this year.

Speaker 5 (10:42):
Where they were.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Talking about trading Steph to a contender.

Speaker 5 (10:45):
Do you real conversation?

Speaker 10 (10:47):
So?

Speaker 4 (10:47):
Do you remember that?

Speaker 8 (10:49):
So?

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Is it just Steph's greatness? Or has Jimmy Butler revived
Steph's career that seemed to be going south? What has
turned Steph Curry around? Eight seven, seven ninety nine on
Fox eight seven seven nine nine, six sixty three sixty nine.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Which one is it?

Speaker 1 (11:12):
You know that meme that video of the Undertaker if
everybody always uses with Dune and he just funny he
wakes up from the dead.

Speaker 5 (11:20):
That's what Jimmy Butler did.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Steph was like, I'm dead this season, remember those looks
he would get those gazes rob just staring off from
the distance beause they getting shopped by thirty, wopped by forty.

Speaker 4 (11:30):
He gave him one more.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
Lifeline, give me one more boom.

Speaker 1 (11:34):

Speaker 10 (16:07):
Man?

Speaker 11 (16:08):
At least got my name right, man. I don't think
that Jimmy buck is coming is like she coming to
the Pistons, because Jimmy Buck is a is a much
bigger piece. You know, she was kind of a journeyman
at that particular point.

Speaker 5 (16:22):
Whoa, whoa, WHOA hold on now, mj.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
She was was still that guy for the next three
to four years with the Pistons. Now you and what
he said that he said she was just like a
little journeyman piece.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
She was that guy.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
They went to the finals back to back. No, he was.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
A big quarter away from winning back to back exactly,
no doubt.

Speaker 11 (16:51):
I think he was. He was a very good piece,
but he wasn't the main piece as far as them
winning because that team was.

Speaker 4 (16:56):
Already no nobody he made.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Then Jimmy meant to the Warriors they need they needed
with she to finish the job.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
They really did.

Speaker 6 (17:04):
He was.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
He bought a great presence on both ends. Brandon Riverside, California.
B You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 13 (17:12):
What's up, good, gentlemen, I'm good man, I'm glad to
be back.

Speaker 4 (17:16):
I know you. You would go on for a minute.

Speaker 13 (17:19):
Yeah, my work schedule, man, they'd be throwing me at
night sometimes.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Man, we told you to tell your boss you got
a rock with doc. Couple may put them on the phone. Man,
that's what what are you doing, man, Man, put your
boss on the phone.

Speaker 13 (17:29):
Man PETROLI I'm a petroleum truck driver, so I delivered
you know field all right.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
And take your time. We need you to take your time.
You just take it easy, but real quick.

Speaker 10 (17:39):
The Warriors had like a three phage year so far.

Speaker 13 (17:42):
The beginning of the year. Remember Buddy Hill, he couldn't
miss a three. He was shooting night seventy percent from three.
That's why they had a good record. They started off
really good and that helped step out as far as
uh not triple team them. And when they started going
down for those too much, they was getting like triple team,
double team. It just looked bad. And yeah, so Jimmy

(18:05):
Butler came and it really helped him out again as
far as loosing him up, loosing the defense up off
of him, because you do have to pay attention to Jimmy.
But Jimmy Jimmy Butler. But uh yeah, so it's like
there on a three it was like a three page
year for him and Jimmy did it did help him out,
It helped him. Stepp is happy that they.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Made that with do without a doubt, appreciate the call.
Brother who next Dion in Texas. You're on the couple
of Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
What's up? Deon?

Speaker 10 (18:37):
Hey, what's up? Fellas Kelvin, Welcome back and talk to
the first time this way. Look, God, I think Jimmy Butler,
I mean, it's not an accurate statement. It's not right
or wrong because you lean at least two guys in
this NBA and this Today's Eric you got a.

Speaker 9 (18:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (18:53):
So that's really my take on it, Curry, And I'm
like with Ken from Stock, he's right, man, Curry. I mean,
guys want to elevate this dude in the top ten.
I need to see some of these guys top tens.
Uh dude. Never, he don't play defense like that. I
can't put him in the top ten. But he's a
hell of a shooter. Not the best clutch shooter, but
a great shooter. And last not least shaky. Is much

(19:16):
better than yok.

Speaker 8 (19:17):
Thank you.

Speaker 5 (19:18):
I don't know what Rob I'm trying to tell them.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Man, you guys, just this is an anti European thing. Guys,
won't admit it.

Speaker 5 (19:25):
No you won't.

Speaker 4 (19:25):
No, no, you won't admit it.

Speaker 5 (19:28):
You know, anybody right now, he's the best player to leave.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
But Monty knows what I'm talking about. You guys, you guys.
But I thought of.

Speaker 14 (19:36):
Luka Donc Jersey the moment they were available. Anti Europeans
a lot.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
There are a lot of NBA fans who don't like
my favorite player, don't like that, don't like the Europeans.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
And all they do is win the m vps. That's
all they do in the NBA.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
The next time, the last time, the last time a
black player or a white player want to NBA MVP.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
Yes, I'm gonna say it. Moby Dick was a gumpy
That's all all it was.

Speaker 5 (20:00):
I figured it out. This is why you see this,
This is why r G three see see whatever?

Speaker 4 (20:06):
Why what what are you saying?

Speaker 5 (20:07):
People were like, do you know what you're about to do?

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Man?

Speaker 1 (20:11):
That would have been great too, That'd have been great theater.
Would you have been like would you have like been
the real robe?

Speaker 8 (20:16):
Right?

Speaker 1 (20:16):
You'd have still been you because you always I know
I'm saying you would have still if he said something crazy.

Speaker 5 (20:21):
Literally looked at Robin said, are you gonna apologize him?
He said, hell, no, stop it, Alex. Were you No,
We're going to have a conversation.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
No no, no, no, no, not that we're asking like
like you always so yes, no question. Would I say
it wasn't going to be that kind of party. Was
going to be a conversation for people with just what
if he.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
Said he was like, dagd Alex, I like to do impressions.
What if he was like, I just really feel like
you need to apologize to me for ruining my life.

Speaker 5 (20:50):
Stop it.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
Don't don't even like like you're going too far now
ruining his life. The guys doing just great.

Speaker 5 (20:55):
He is doing great. Okay for making me upset Brad
in Minnesota.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
You're in the coup of Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 5 (21:01):
I'm gonna get I'm gonna get her RG three impression, guys,
I like listening.

Speaker 8 (21:05):
To your program, And uh, I think Jimmy Buckets has
put the team on his back. He's a spark plug
that comes in and for about two three years, they'll
ignite that team and they should have a pretty good
two three years run.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
I think, Brad, I was with you at first till
you said two three years. Brad, you went too far.

Speaker 5 (21:23):
Brother.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
I will give you two three more months. That's all
I can do, Brad. But appreciate the callity the way Brad.
Two three years carry.

Speaker 12 (21:31):
It be forty.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
Jimmy, No, Jimmy, brother is the most unknown age. It
is time now for the hot seat. Damn sun.

Speaker 7 (21:38):
The current temperature.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
The odd couple are making it hot in here, damn hot.
Time to sit your butt down in pot cooking the
hot seat.

Speaker 14 (21:49):
That's right, it is the hot seat on the Odd Couple.
Rob Parker, Kevin Washington he first ever caller on the
hot Seat. Today. Emant from Olympia, Emmitt, how are you doing?

Speaker 15 (22:01):
Guy?

Speaker 6 (22:03):
Going to give a big shout to Bow and Ryan
Burschinger for help and illustrate this. I'm glad to be
on the show.

Speaker 14 (22:07):
Well, Ryan gets no credit for anything ever. Take that back,
Take that back.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
That's why I'm.

Speaker 14 (22:14):
Ryan didn't do that. Emmett has three topics here that
he is going to argue with Robin Kelvin. Kelvin and
Rob are going to push back and Alex ty Shirt
is going to be the decider here. I will admit
this might be a tough one for Robin Kelvin because
Emmett is a fan favorite of the producers.

Speaker 15 (22:29):
And you know what, Rob G even tweeted, Yeah, Rob
G just tweeted, let me phone hell yeah cook those dudes.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
I mean he's supposed to be I'll produce.

Speaker 13 (22:43):
He's changed.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
He's rooting for you. Unbelievable. That's all right, we're.

Speaker 14 (22:50):
Gonna start it off here. Emmett says that the UFC
would be the second most watched sport if they dropped
the paper. Emmitt, you are up first.

Speaker 6 (23:02):
You know what Americans like, guys, That is physical sports.
Like look at football, that is the most watched sport
in America because people like that action. They like that
fast based stuff, and that's what the UFC would bring.
But want to know what people's biggest gripe is with
the UFC.

Speaker 9 (23:15):
It's eighty dollars a month.

Speaker 10 (23:16):
I have to do that twelve times a year.

Speaker 6 (23:18):
If they drop that, I guarantee it would be getting
the ratings because every young male I know, like a
lot of my homeboys, they love the UFC. And we
have to go like four ways every month just to
pay for the fight. If you drop that pay per view,
everyone's gonna watch because nobody cares about regular season basketball
or regular season hockey, like it's eighty two games. Of course,
I'm picking the UFC fight over that.

Speaker 4 (23:40):
Eman.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
Come on, there's UFC on television. I don't see them
breaking the ratings when they do have it. I get
it they hold out the big ones and put them
on pay per view, but there's plenty and if we
saw those huge numbers on those ones that are on
ESPN and other cable channels, then they would possibly do it.

Speaker 4 (23:59):
But they know that it's a niche audience and.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
You got to make people pay for it to enjoy it,
because if you put it for the masses, guess what,
the numbers wouldn't justify it, and you would see how
small the sport really.

Speaker 10 (24:15):
Now.

Speaker 6 (24:15):
I guarantee you that the numbers would be doubled if
they did this, because guess what, people love to see
people get their crap beat out of them. And Alex
Prera is like one of the really like hot heavy
fighters right now, and nobody that doesn't pay gets to
watch them. If you were able to see Alex Preira
or any of those dudes. You'd be very entertained with it.
John Jones is fighting in July, and he's a big storyline.

(24:36):
Like people outside of the sport of the UFC know
exactly who he is and they'd love to see him
in the in the fighting rings. Ouys, you know what.

Speaker 5 (24:44):
That's the best part. You just prove my point. You
said Alex whoever, and then you say the other dudes.
That's the point. Don't nobody know that?

Speaker 1 (24:50):
You know what?

Speaker 5 (24:51):
Every grandma knows Steph Curry.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Every grandma walking around knows Lebron, they know Luca, they
know Giannis, they know all these big names. Because basketball
is entertaining. I ain't saying USC in entertaining, but to
say to all of a sudden would just become the
second most watched sport. Stuck, cut out the nonsense. First
of all, what is Ronda Rowsey coming back? Is Connor
McGregor coming back? I don't buy it, and I literally
don't buy it. Is and spend the money. And I

(25:12):
learned to talk about free TV and watch some NFL,
some NBA. It's some mob in fact of watching the
Dodgers now. But I have to say first, Emmitt, good
to talk to you, man, it's been a while. How
you doing, man, Man, I have to say this, man,
I'm actually honored to have you as the first caller
on the couple for the hot seat.

Speaker 5 (25:29):
I don't say anything else. First round goes to him.

Speaker 4 (25:31):
Oh, man, yeah, believe real one.

Speaker 5 (25:34):
That's what I'll be talking about. It would be the
ones closer to your route. It's the one you got
to look at.

Speaker 6 (25:38):
And say, hey, I gotta I gotta say real quickly
before the next topic. I had Alex on my podcast
a while ago, and this dude was so honored to
do it that he came on at twelve fifteen at
night and did two three hours with me. That dude
is a real one.

Speaker 5 (25:52):
Because we three hours and half in, it dropped, so
we redid it again in the middle of the night.
It all I heard is y'all both need some hobbies.
That's what I heard, all right?

Speaker 4 (26:02):
All right.

Speaker 14 (26:03):
Up next the UH after their loss to the Eagles
in the Super Bowl, Emmett smells blood in the water.
Emmett says that the Los Angeles Chargers are a lock
to win the AFC West next year. I mean, you
got thirty seconds.

Speaker 6 (26:17):
Go Yes, what man? When Mike Williams is there, he
is an MVP receiver. And the Chargers, they have a
really good head coach, like Justin Herbert turns into an
MVP level quarterback with Mike Williams. Lat mcconkeye is a
great number one option. You have Nugie Harris, who is
kind of crappy in Pittsburgh, but the Stewarts are a
really bad offensive line. Lock him up with a great
offensive line like the Chargers have with Joe all And

(26:38):
and uh rasaon Slater. They're gonna be fine. I mean,
Nagi is avage three yards of carry, It's gonna go up.
Jim Harbaugh is a great Runners first head coach, and
the Raiders, I don't buy them. I think the Chiefs
their window is over, man. I mean, Travis Kelsey's getting older.
It's been like the past seven years like this. NAFC
West is a very tough division and to win it.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Did you watch the games last year? The Chargers couldn't
beat any good teams. The only teams they beat were
also rans. And when it came time to play the
big boys, the shorts were brown. I'm sorry, I don't
care what color khakis, Jim Harbaugh wearing it ain't gonna

(27:19):
cover that up. You gotta beat the big boys if
you want to win the division, and they ain't winning
no division.

Speaker 6 (27:25):
Emmett rob have vered are growing pains and you know,
adjusting the time.

Speaker 10 (27:32):
Jim Harbaugh, that.

Speaker 6 (27:33):
Was his first year as a Chargers head coach with
a very crappy receiving corps. I mean, they had the
homie Luke who dropped off my door dash as their
second string wide receiver other than Lat mccaukey. Like they
gave him no room. And I hear what you're saying, Oh,
Mike Williams, he could be washed. When Justin Herbert has
Mike Williams, He's an MVP level quarterback.

Speaker 10 (27:49):
And it's gonna take a matter of time. One more
year of Jim Harbaugh.

Speaker 6 (27:52):
Learning Justin Herbert, one more year at Justin Herbert went
learning Jim Harbaugh, and guess what they're gonna be up there.
I mean, Jim Harbaugh is miles better than Brandon Staley.

Speaker 10 (28:00):
And they made the.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Man listen, the Kansas City is the Boogeyman. They're the
Boogeyman to the Chargers. The Chargers shaking their pants when
they come around. Not to mention the Chargers, Monty, cover
your ears. They're like the Clippers. Every year is a year.

Speaker 5 (28:15):
This is the year? What they gonna do with this time?
You ain't never did?

Speaker 10 (28:18):
It?

Speaker 1 (28:18):
Starts to make me thinking, I don't like to believe
in curses, but Daggan, I'm starting to think of the curse.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
What is going on? Both coats lou Holtz, Kansas City
in five.

Speaker 6 (28:28):
There we go.

Speaker 5 (28:29):
I have to say, not only am I just flabbergasted
that you even graced us with your presence on this
segment today, but I'm also honored to know that you
two also believe in the greatness of the Chargers Go,
Chargers Go. Another easy win for Emmitt. Wow, this is ridiculous.
He got smoked on that one.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
Like they wasn't even even closed, like Alex, they haven't
even beaten a good team.

Speaker 5 (28:52):
Really, Rob, were you trying to say, I don't know sports? No,
whoa whoa?

Speaker 2 (28:55):
That was?

Speaker 6 (28:56):
Guy?

Speaker 14 (28:57):
However, tell you I think that win was formond because
she is also a Chargers fan.

Speaker 5 (29:03):
Chargers and Clippers. Oh, it's just not a lot of
winning in your life.

Speaker 9 (29:06):
All right?

Speaker 6 (29:06):
Well, you got the Dodgers though, they go together.

Speaker 14 (29:08):
He's a Dodger though, all Dodger throw and throw for
Let's go the redemption here. Emmett's last take is maybe
his most insane. Uh this is what I mean for me?

Speaker 5 (29:19):
Yeah, this is where could Yeah okay.

Speaker 14 (29:22):
Emmett says that hot dogs are the most overrated stadium food.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
Oh I just threw up in my mouth. Yeah, I
had a Glizzy in my mouth.

Speaker 6 (29:34):
If I'm gonna get price scouts like eleven dollars for
a hot dog, I'm gonna get price scouts for something
that I can't have at the crib, where I can
go to Costco and get a big old Glizzy and
then have that for like half the price. If I'm
going to a baseball game, I want to feeling Chief
shakes the side of my head, like I got the
Mariners game last year, Like, yeah, it was seventeen dollars,
but it was amazing, And these hot dogs you can
literally get the same thing at home. If I'm going

(29:54):
to a game, I want something I can't make it
the crib. I want something that really shows hard to
their stadium or really shows part to the city, Like
if you go to what Mariners game, guys they literally
have seafood because that is the whole thing in Seattle,
like Seattle.

Speaker 4 (30:07):
But would you, Emmitt, would you stop seafood at a
ball game? Take me out to the ball.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Game, buy me some peanuts and quack or jacks.

Speaker 4 (30:19):
I don't care if I ever get back, and I
want a wolf a couple of these dogs.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
And if their beef it's even insane because it's one.

Speaker 12 (30:29):
What else too, how many three strikes you're around at
the ball Yeah?

Speaker 6 (30:38):
You know what? You know what the worst part about
hot dogs is, other than the price, which it feels
like you're getting punch in the face when your credit
card go through for that transaction. Bro the burts off
the hot dogs got to be one of the worst
things ever that you can heat, you can smell, So
you're gonna be putting the people, the poor people that
you're sitting next to us the game through these misery burts.
When I can have me a big old Philly cheeseteak
or you know, if you're going to Dodger Stadium, you

(30:58):
can get those helmet nachos like that sounds fun because
guess what with the helmet notrus, you get to keep
a prize that you get to eat your food in
and it shows a team. That is the best thing
you can get in sports. I love when I go
to a game and I get like a cup. I
have a Mariner's cup right next to you guy drinking
my water.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
Boy, we gotta put inmit on a limit. I'm tired
of hearing you right now. It all right here, let
me tell you something. What about traditions, brother, tradition that's
the problem with you young whipp snappers. Y'all just throw
tradition out the window. That's why your grandmother's a manitude
your grandfather, you come over the house. You don't do
the things you're supposed to do.

Speaker 5 (31:29):
This is an ald. Tradition is a culture. This is
what we do.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Baseball and hot dogs, peanut butter, jelly. Okay, cookies and milk.

Speaker 7 (31:36):
They go hand in hand.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
Dagg it all right, So don't come in here disrespecting
the traditions like that.

Speaker 8 (31:41):
Now.

Speaker 5 (31:41):
I will give you a.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Good point after my buzzer, because I can't give you
a point a good point during my buzzer.

Speaker 5 (31:45):
So that's what I had to say. You're herd my.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
Partner saying, and dagg it, that was worth three so
we winy hey, And then.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
I do want to tell you this. I had like
a foot long or whatever. I don't know how big.
Was so big, I'm big on it. I'm scared at
a hot dog at Disney and it was like fourteen dollars.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
I'm serious, it was bigger, right, it was so big.
And before I put it in my mouth, I actually
moved the sound crowd to the side to make sure
it wasn't attached to anybody.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Wow, I've never let me all right, I'm serious. Speaker
phone Rob right now, hold on now, y'all laughing, I'm
calling Rob.

Speaker 5 (32:24):
Don't no, we need we need help.

Speaker 12 (32:27):
Go ahead. We won this one.

Speaker 5 (32:29):
We won right. All I'm gonna say is Emmett. You
know I rock with you. You know I guessed. Yeah,
you know. I'm excited for everything you said. But I
don't know me when I hear this.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Take me out to the ball game, buy me some
peanuts and quack or jacks. I don't care I ever
get back, and I want a wolf, a couple of
the dogs. And if they're beef, it's even insane because
it's war.

Speaker 12 (32:54):
Too many three strikes you're around at the ball Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:01):

some of his most known movie. So one's gotta go.

the list? We got top Gun. I'm pretty sure I
ain't going nowhere, right, Batman, Forever, Tombstone, the Doors where

base for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Another story. I know you love baseball, but.

That's too news to me. That's news to me.

Speaker 4 (36:25):
Jim Morrison. That was his name, and everybody's like, oh yeah,
he played for the Doors.

Speaker 5 (36:29):
You don't, I don't care. And the heat not the
heat doesn't mimy, but heat, the movie heat. All right?
So you got top Gun, Batman, Forever, Tombstone, the Doors.

Speaker 4 (36:37):
And Heat. I'll go first because this is just too easy.

Speaker 5 (36:41):
It's always it's always easy.

Speaker 4 (36:43):
It's easy for me unless I have to eat a
hot dog.

Speaker 5 (36:48):
Just stop for I have to call Rob again. Good Batman?
Why wow, I didn't see that one coming. That's next
to Frank Sinati.

Speaker 4 (36:57):
I don't think he was the best. Do you think
he was the best Batman.

Speaker 3 (36:59):
It's no, I didn't know.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
That's not what I'm saying, but.

Speaker 5 (37:01):
That bell just turned around somewhere like what.

Speaker 4 (37:04):
That was a fun Batman.

Speaker 5 (37:06):
That was a fun Batman.

Speaker 3 (37:07):
I think I'm gonna tell you this, out of all
the ones that they've done, Michael Keaton, the first one,
what's the best?

Speaker 4 (37:15):
What am I not even what?

Speaker 5 (37:18):
Nicholson? The movies were better.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
Christian Madison was better. The storyline, everything in that movie
was great.

Speaker 5 (37:25):
I did love that one, all right, So we got
one for Batman Forever.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
I've never seen Tombstone, so by Tombstone, never seen it.

Speaker 5 (37:31):
I'll be your huckleberry. A lot of listeners.

Speaker 4 (37:34):
Just I'm sorry. I was little you never.

Speaker 5 (37:40):
It came out pretty much save back on Time as
Batman Forever.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
She was busy. She was busy with Batman was more
popular fee.

Speaker 5 (37:49):
So we ain't gotten time Boat.

Speaker 14 (37:50):
Top Gun the first one.

Speaker 4 (37:55):
That movie.

Speaker 14 (37:56):
That movie is not good, like the first Top Gun
movie is not good. The first Top Gun is not good.
The second one was way what And.

Speaker 5 (38:02):
To take my breath away, Alex, I'm kind of shocked.

Speaker 14 (38:07):
Yeah, I feel like you haven't watched the first Top Gun.

Speaker 5 (38:11):
I did come on dude too, because I went with
the Jason Smith Show to watch the remake.

Speaker 14 (38:15):
Yeah, and the remake it's not a remake, is a
sequel to sell Alex.

Speaker 5 (38:18):
We Got Time Go.

Speaker 6 (38:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (38:20):
Rob convinced me Batman. Yes, Michael keenan.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
Absolutely ridiculous, And my answer is Batman. It's Batman forever
because he ain't going nowhere. Tombstone ain't going to where.
Top Gun isn't going anywhere. The Doors was good, but
I definitely Batman. It just wasn't the best one. He
ain't going nowhere, nor is Toomson Manta. You have homework tonight.
