Speaker 1 (00:00):

Yo as always, Polly Fools go here with Tony Foolsco.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Most of the people in our industry, these lazy bums
taking off today when our own team USA Soccer is
in crisis terribly.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
Just shows you who the real patriots are. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
We're here to save our Teaman Dot Country Now Country
now Bro, because as you know, nobody covers soccer better
than we.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Everybody knows that, you know.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
And now that's why we're bringing on a guest today
who's just he's just not doing it right, don't He's
not you know, he's no idea what he doing.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Needs some education. We're gonna help.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Is a Fox Sports studio host there, Rob Stone.

Speaker 5 (00:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
And if you want to know who's to blame for
America losing, it's this guy and his co host, Uh,
the redhead guy, you know, the one looks like the
lead singer the Spin Doctors.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah him anyway, By the way, while we're talking about
the USA, since this country clearly needs a help, remember
to support the best option for president you have. That's
me and Tony. Get your Polly and Tony twenty four
shirts hatsmugs in our merch store on July fourth only

Speaker 5 (01:28):
Here you go, America.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
You're welcome there you go, all right now to our
top story story.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
All right, our top story.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Tame USA Soka just flaming out once again like a
fiery third yea or getting knocked out of the latest
soccer tournament by the country.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
Called r Ugaway.

Speaker 5 (01:49):
And there's no agway. We sure lost to them.

Speaker 4 (01:53):
Good one, Tony.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
And you know people that are scratching their heads wondering
how we could lose to a tame like that, Paball.
It's so clear why all these South American teams better
at soccer.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
You know, everyone's just a fright to say it.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
You know when these countries they lose at soccer, well,
the government just executes the players.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
Exactly, such a simple, proven approach, exact that really motivates
the players.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
And you know, we got to stop considering that, right.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Donty one hundred percent, You know all you have to
do is look at one of the all time great
soccer minds. Of course, I'm talking about Pablo Escobar. Sure,
you know, maybe he wasn't so great in other areas
of his business, but when it came to motivating and
also murdering soccer players, nobody was better.

Speaker 4 (02:34):
Nobody.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
Just look at the results, tons of titles, tiers of joy,
you know, some tiers of pain and sadness, but mostly joy.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah, but mostly joy. And you know he also had
a winning mentality. You know, you win at all costs.

Speaker 5 (02:48):
Right here, you go, that's what you need or winning mentality?

Speaker 2 (02:52):
All right, well, you know, moving on on that subject
winning mentality. At Dompson just chose the Mavericks over the Lakers,
and his dad, Michaelson, well he came out and said
he's disappointed that his son made this decision, didn't choose
the Lakers, you know, Michael's old team, And well, you know,
I gotta take his dad's side here, because you really
do have to question Clay's thinking here, don't you.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
You know, Frankly, I was shocked when Clay didn't go
to the Lakers, because you know, when you break it down,
Clay checks all the Laker boxes, YEP, past his prime, YEP,
injury prone, very overpaid YEP.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
And nepotism and YRP nepotism a core founding face of
the Lakers.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
I am shocked that he isn't a Laker right now.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Just a terrible decision by him.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
But Tony, Paul George choosing the Sixers great great move
by both sides here.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
Absolutely, Paul George is the exact opposite of everything I
just described.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Absolutely, and oh, well to this story, Tony, kind of controversial.
You know, people they're outraged because at the BET Awards O. J.
Simpson wasn't fluted in the in memoriam segment. Now, Tony, I, frankly,
I don't see the reason for outrage here, you know.
I mean, I know OJ did, you know, get away
with murder, But you know, the reason he did get

(04:11):
away with murder was because he was such a great athlete.
I mean, you could argue it only cemented his legacy
as one of the greatest athletes of all time.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, there's no question OJ had that great speed and
that elusiveness, and that's what made him one of the
great running backs and murderers. You know, Well, alleged murderers
since he wasn't caught.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
He wasn't caught.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
That's when people just keep leaving out of the story here.
I mean, you know, you don't see other killers being
memorialized that the ward shows like where's Charles Manson?

Speaker 4 (04:43):
You know exactly the reason is because he was a shrimp. Yeah,
no foot speed. That's why he got caught. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
You know, then you look at someone like the Zodiac.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
He was a great at calling audibles and terrific at
signs and signals that defense is just couldn't figure out
and never got.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Caught, never got caught. And see that's why he's still
a legend to this day. Then there you can go
like ojay. Yeah. Anyway, before we get to our guest, Tony,
your one final story, ESPN has announced they're launching a
new business venture. You see this called the ESPN Experiences

to do then and you won better.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
You know, what's your shirt? What is what shirt are
you wearing?

Speaker 6 (06:38):
Bro by the way, says drink plant milk, plant milk?

Speaker 4 (06:43):
What do you jerk off the plant?

Speaker 5 (06:45):
You know what are you squeezing its tits?

Speaker 6 (06:47):
No, you're you're half right. You do squeeze the milk
out of the almonds for example.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
See do you go, well, you're half made? He goes, disgusting,
but there we go.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
Yeah, all right, well, oh look, hey, you know you're
busy jabbering on.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
You didn't even see a guest on the line.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yeah, all right, let's go ahead and bring him on
the FUSCO satellite.

Speaker 5 (07:04):
Network, satellite in the world.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Alright, this guy, longtime Fox Sports studio host, you know soccer,
college football, does that also covers bowling, although he's not
that great at it, you know, as we established last
time he was on the show. But yeah, you know
not lately his broadcasting partners in him, they've been very
critical of Team USA soccer. You know a lot of
people they've been applauding that coverage, but not us, certainly

(07:28):
not you know, just a bunch of whining and no
good solutions. We're gonna bring him on, try and educate him. Anyway,
Rob Stone, welcome to the show.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
Welcome bro, Hi.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
Thank you. I'm fired up to get educated.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
Let the education begin. I'm sitting see.

Speaker 4 (07:42):
You know, you come to the right place.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
A tough time, isn't it tough time for soccer experts
like us? You know? Don't you hate when this time
hear all these people come out of the woodwork, like
Steven A. Smith, act like they know everything about soccer,
watch all the games?

Speaker 4 (07:55):
Isn't that just pthetic?

Speaker 7 (07:57):
I think when you're wearing a Philadelphia Eagle jersey, that
tells me you are definitely dialed into the tone and
tenor of American soccer.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
Well yeah, because an eagle is the symbol of America.
I see where you're going with that. Yeah, yeah, all right, good.

Speaker 5 (08:10):
Good for you one right, yay, And that's how we.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
Support our country, you know, symbols. Okay, but let's talk about.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
You know you, you know, you've been very critical on air,
you know, about a lot of things, and we feel
like we need to check you, okay. You know, first
of all, the other day you'll complain it about the
camera angle or the broadcast, right because it looked like,
you know, it was from like a space satellite ten
thousand feet above the ground.

Speaker 4 (08:32):
You know, but you seem to think that was bad.
We thought it was better.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
I mean, you know, right, Tony, Yeah, you know, you know,
you can you can imagine the home viewer pulling out
their binoculars and it must have felt like they were
really at the game looking at the TV with binoculars.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Okay, all right, to each their own. That's fine.

Speaker 7 (08:53):
Good, Yeah, you get to see everything, all right, that's fine.
I'll take that.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
You'll think that's the what you want to live.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Like, see who's too far for you?

Speaker 4 (09:02):
It was awful.

Speaker 6 (09:03):
It was awful.

Speaker 7 (09:04):
Yeah, no depth perception, couldn't see anything. It looked like
ants run around on the field. It was one of
the worst things I've ever seen in sports television, and
thankfully got corrected.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
You know what, you know why you're an elitist, Rob,
I bet when you get your Fox Sports seats, you're
down on the field.

Speaker 5 (09:21):
You know, we like to be.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
Up as far back as possible with the people. Yeah,
but you you obviously hate people.

Speaker 7 (09:28):
Not a big fan of people. But I am a
big fan of free tickets from Fox Sports.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
Yes, no, okay, okay, there you go. You know they
give them to us too, but they give them some
too close. They're too close. We don't want Yeah, all right, anyway,
that all right, Look, let's talk about you. Let's talk
about you. You know you're coming out you're blaming Team USA.
Don't you think you and your announcing team are the
play there? I mean, you know, before the the Uruguay
game or whatever, you and that redhead guy, you know,
the one who looks like the lead singer of the

(09:53):
spin Doctors, spin Docorsky, he was power ranking the teams
and he put Team USA eight out of ten. Don't
you think that hurts the player is morale? Like, you know,
you're basically saying you suck, You're gonna lose before the game.

Speaker 7 (10:08):
How many spin Doctor songs can you guys name by
the way, plenty?

Speaker 3 (10:11):
Bro?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yeah, you're the spin doctor. Bro, you're not even answering
the question. Is spin answering the question?

Speaker 5 (10:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (10:18):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Sure, So you're telling me you're not You're not getting
to the.

Speaker 7 (10:23):
In Argentina, Come on right, Like, there's no way the
US in soccer is better than Lionel Messi and Argentina.

Speaker 4 (10:30):
There's no way they're better than.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
You're missing the point, bro, you're on American television and
you should your own contract number one.

Speaker 5 (10:38):
Bro.

Speaker 7 (10:41):
Well, we try not to be biased with these things,
and actually, you know, you have some thought and some
numbers put into it, not just automatically assume that we
are number one at everything. Granted we kick ass in
a lot of departments, but soccer currently is not the
thing that we are number one.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
But don't you feel like you're kind of being, you know,
like a Benett Dick Cumba Bats, you know, like the
trader to your country, the trader.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
Spro ben who cumber Bash? Yeah, you know the trader,
trader guy Trader.

Speaker 7 (11:12):
Yeah, No, no, no, no, not trader. Joe's No, I'm
not a trader. I love my country, I love my
soccer team. We're just we're not there right now, guys.
We're not as good. I mean the Philadelphia Union. I mean,
I'm sure you guys go to a lot.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Of Philly Union games, right of course, Brow.

Speaker 6 (11:27):
Yeah, what town are there?

Speaker 7 (11:28):
Is their stadium?

Speaker 5 (11:29):
Inn, Bro, We're not stay on topic.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
You're getting me off topic, Bro. And we've been very supportive.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
We've spoken about the Union know once or twice in
the past three years and said very positive now, you know,
how would you feel. Let's say I got on the
air and I said I had Rob Stone, He's the
eighth best out of the den. You know, Kurt Menafee
much better, Jay gla is a much better Matt Lione
at number one, And then you gotta roll out, Yeah,

(11:54):
I say, this guy just sucks at broadcasting. He's a
terrible human, shouldn't be on television. Okay, go Rob.

Speaker 7 (12:02):
I would say that's probably a pretty fair assessment, and
you've given me great motivation to try and move up
the pecking order.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Oh good, because that was actually not an example. I
was just actually telling giving you advice that brouh.

Speaker 7 (12:15):
Well, everybody's got you know, you know what right, So
they got an opinion, so they're allowed to have an opinion.
You guys got opinions more times than not. You're probably right.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Maybe you're not up to speed on your politics, bro,
and how this goes, you could be living in a
country soon where you might get you know, shipped off
to Uruguay for saying certain things.

Speaker 4 (12:34):
You know, a certain guy gets elected.

Speaker 5 (12:36):
You know you're on the unity Uruguay is do what
he wants.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
Brow.

Speaker 7 (12:44):
I would love to spend some time in Uruguay and
Brazil and Argentina, but not at the expense of leaving
the greatest country in the world.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah, well, you're not going to be welcoming much longer
unless you'll stop complaining and start looking to change things.
You know, Rob, this is you don't understand how to
do TV. You don't understand how to give solutions. You
just bitch and all you do is complain. But there's
no solutions.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
They do. Send you down to Uruguay.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
I want you to look around because you know what
the South American teams do when the when the when
the teams lose, the players use they just execute them
small showed them crash their plane, kidnapped them, you know,
just easy. Don't you think maybe that's the approach America
needs to start doing, you know, to motivate and you know,
murder players.

Speaker 7 (13:28):
That's that's one way to achieve motivation. I'm not sure
that would I'm not sure that would fly here.

Speaker 4 (13:37):
Maybe maybe next year, you know, broken.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
You know, you know, I saw that one Netflix show,
the Escobar Show. You know, don't you think he had
the right approach, you know, not with his other enterprises,
but with soccer when it came to motivating and murdering
soccer players, didn't That wasn't that the writing mentality?

Speaker 4 (13:58):
Yeah, Bro, it's an approach.

Speaker 7 (14:03):
I might offer some other solutions maybe, but that you know,
fear is a great motivator.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
Correct.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
See.

Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yeah, See what if I stored outside the Fox Sports
studios and I would the next time you you know, misspeak?
What's on a teleprompta? I'm gonna faim a bazooka at
your head. Don't you think that would help you?

Speaker 7 (14:21):
It seems slightly over the top, but I get it. Yes,
I would be motivated not to see I'm going.

Speaker 4 (14:26):
To kidnap your grandma. Wouldn't that help?

Speaker 6 (14:28):
Hey?

Speaker 5 (14:29):
And he's going by bye Rob?

Speaker 7 (14:31):
Yep, you know my grandma's address. Huh, you can't come on,
can't be serious, grandma.

Speaker 4 (14:37):
Now we're doing we do what it takes bro to
get to get motivation.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
Okay, yeah, exactly, Bro.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
All right, I like some of that mentality, right, I
like some of that.

Speaker 7 (14:46):
I like figure out a way to solve and and
and create better, better spaces whatever it is.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
Okay, great, So, okay, you know you've been getting it.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
You you and your broadcast bought in a spin doctor
you know, he says we should fire this coach right. Well, now,
don't you think maybe maybe it's just like fire at him,
you know, a gun.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
Wouldn't that send the right message?

Speaker 5 (15:07):
Or light him on fire?

Speaker 4 (15:09):
Fire him literally again? Seems extreme?

Speaker 7 (15:12):
What what do you guys think if if they do
move on from him and they hire a non American
to coach the team non American?

Speaker 5 (15:22):
Is that your dog?

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (15:24):
See your dog?

Speaker 6 (15:26):
