Speaker 1 (00:49):
Well, here we are. Aaron Judge is just gone down swinging.
The Dodgers lead the Yankee seven to one in the
third inning, and I'm gonna go out on a limb here,
Mike Harmon, I'm going to Okay, I don't know this
for sure, Yeah, I don't know that, but I'm gonna
go out a limb.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And say I am one hundred correct on this Okay,
go ahead.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
In Clayton Kershaw's career, he has never lost a game
where he's had a six run lead.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
I'm trying to find out, you know, I've been doing
some rudimentary searches to that effect of, hey, how do
we uh, how do we resolve this?
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I'm gonna guess you're right. I'm gonna say that that's
absolutely the mean.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
You could probably do a query to uh stats inc.
Or one of those. It's science, Mike, I think I
think it's just inevitable.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Here's the question, science, yo, science, How deep does he
go in this game?
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Though? Well know, as long as he wants to. Dave
Roberts get back, can you sit out?
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Now?
Speaker 4 (01:43):
He goes as long as he wants, although, of course,
you know, since the Yankees are getting battered.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Around, they're gonna be in the bullpen. Yeah for quiet here,
Dodgers don't look to join them. No, this will be.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
This will be where Look, he's not throwing a lot
of he's forty four pitches, so he'll get out of
the fourth inning somewhere around fifty pitches, which means he'll
I would say he'll go at least sevenven and that's
when then that's when Dave Roberts says, hey, go down
and ask Clayton if he's done. Ken King, just find
it out.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Steve de Sager has.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
More on this check yes or no, they send it
from this year. But at one point in Kershaw's career,
his record when he had a four run league was
ninety six and oh there you.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Go ninety six and oh okay, so I gotta think
there's been no six run.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Blown leads there. Yeah, I'll just guess like four.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Like if I live, bet this game bath and say
I want to take the Dodgers to win, like I
would have to bet like a million dollars to win
ten cents. But why not because you're gonna win ten cents? Well,
the bullpen could blow it, they're not gonna. I don't
think they'll have enough time to blow it. He's gonna
go Have you've seen the bullpoen? Yeah, but he's gonna
go seven. And it's already seven to one and you
still have Aaron Boone yet to get thrown out of
(02:48):
the game.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
You know what's gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Well, I mean he's resigned himself to where this one's gone.
The most might be playing a video game.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Most notable times when Kershaw blew a four run lead
was when Houston was cheating.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
In gamesh my Lord never coming back.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
There's just when I say it, John Carlo Stanton goes deep.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Junk Carlo, you just say, Polo, what was it? What
does he say?
Speaker 3 (03:10):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Something? Start?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Stop Harlow step You can't stop him, stop Art, you
can't s stop.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Arlow Guthrie from recording. Some of the best.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Folks come in into Angel. John Carlo Stanton just goes deep.
Homer's off of Kershaw Boy on the outside part of
the plate. He went down and got it deposited at
about fifteen rows into the left center field.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Today, make it seven too. Yeah. The the over under
was thirteen and a half. Yeah. Currently the Dodgers are
favored by five and a half runts. All right, all right,
I'll say the Dodgers and I'm coming to give you
five and a half runs.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
For the rest of the night, we will be working
in lines from the Arlow gu Guthrie classic. Mister customs Man, is.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
That a real song? It is? Really?
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
How does it go? That's why I was just singing
the come angy mister customs man. I'm bringing cheese into
Los Angeles and.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
You can't stop me. Got avocados can't get across the line.
I'm bringing in smuggling drugs. I bringing in a couple
of keys.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
I go, if you please, mister customs man, or go
blank yourself, Gus go.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
But we have an update on the Mets game.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
Also, okay, go go ahead. I mentioned Justin Verlander through
one hundred and seventeen pitches. Yes, only gave up the
leadoff homer. After the hour and a half late Raindewer.
It's still one nothing Toronto in the top of the night.
But they're going up against Chris Bassett in this game.
Bassett has just exited the game and is going to
Toronto because his wife is in labor. Oh wow, so
(04:43):
seven and two third shutout innings. He's done with the game.
He's done with the country.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I'm done with them.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
He was done with the Mets after last year. Now
I'm done with this game. I'm done with the country.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
I'm gone. Everything else is gone.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Don't check my bags if you please, mister customs man
all time.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Hey, we're not letting you out because you went like
eight innings no runs, and you know we could have
used that for the Mets.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
What you got in bed.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
I'm just saying you wanted to leave. I know they
didn't want to pay you because they wanted to pay
her Land, but you should have stayed. I'm just saying,
because now you're gonna stay here until this game is over,
and if we lose, you're not getting out of the country.
Just Tony. A big story out of the NFL, and
this falls under the category whether it is the NFL.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Major League Baseball, the NBA, or fantasy sports.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Sometimes and most of the time, I'm gonna change the
saying not even sometimes most of the time, the best
trades are the ones you never make.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Okay, Pro Football.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Tak couple other sources had this story today that last year,
the Philadelphia Eagles really wanted Russell Wilson. This time last year,
when Wilson forced his way out and the trade went
down to the Denver Broncos, they gave up a lot
of things. They brought him the wrong head coach, the
head coach got fired.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
New head coach.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Uh, They really wanted Russell Wilson, and reportedly a deal
had been worked out, but Wilson wouldn't waive his no
trade clause to go to Philadelphia, so the trade didn't
happen and he wound up going to Denver.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I'd be fair. He thought the people of Seattle were
mean to him.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Dude, you made the right move not going to Philadelphia,
forget you'd be would be eating him alive.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Yeah, there'd be.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
It'd be one of those like what was it the
Mummy where they let the scabs in and the scarbs
just eat the paper and it's just the skeleton after
like a minute. That would have been what happened to
Russell Wilson.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
That's good. They would like special effects on that one.
Was pretty good. Yeah, scabs, The scabs would have.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Been all over Russell Wilson would have it's just his
corpse's look at.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Us educating and entertaining America by bringing back the Mummy.
Since it is the Brendan Fraser it is. Can you

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Do you know? Is it Jos? It is John Stamos? Right,
you got to do it.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
I can't believe you do that he's married. She's married
to Daniel Craig. Yes, if you watched Ted Lasso the
Christmas episode, you would have learned.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
That learned.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
It was a long time transporter. Uh that was Jason
Statham was a transporter. So Philadelphia wanted Russell Wilson. And
this is what I mean, it's I feel like and
I've come around to this after all, after all these
years of covering sports, the way everything, not making trades
is better than making them because they're easier to ruin,
(08:53):
they're easy to get wrong. Getting them right is a crapshoot.
And when you look at your history of trades, are
you who ever over fifty percent with trade success? Only
he's a wizard, don't you know, Because there's so many
things that go into it. Because Okay, we're gonna make
this trade and get this player. Meanwhile, it's not just
a one for one where you can look and say, Okay,
we traded this player, we got this player, this guy
(09:16):
was better, we won that trade. No, in the NFL especially,
it's well, we got this guy, but we got a
couple of players. We got these draft picks, and either
the draft pick turns into somebody good, or that draft
pick turns into a trade that's something else. It's really
difficult to win trades, and just when someone makes a
big one, it makes it seem like, boy, look at
(09:37):
what a great trader they are. But I honestly think
in everything, whether it's whether it's it's whether it's sports,
whether it's fantasy, not making trades is better than not
doing trying to get by with the guys, you know,
trying to figure that out, and if it's not working,
replace them with other players from the pipeline. That's better
than saying, well, are we sure these guys aren't going
(09:58):
to project as better players? Make a move, because just
think of what would have happened if the Philadelphia Eagles
make this trade. Did they make it to the Super
Bowl last year? With the way Russell Wilson played with
that roster with that roster and and suddenly it's what
do we do? You're thinking, we got to get out
from under Russell Wilson. We got to get out from
this is no good. And Jalen Hurts is somewhere else
playing extremely well. Right, So I there's no way with
(10:22):
the Russell Wilson we saw last year in Denver, Russell
Wilson showing up to the Eagles here if he's he
started out awful in Denver, and still what happened.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
He got a pass for most of the year. The
first quarter he sucked in Philadelphia. That would have been
it for him. But that's an it.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
So that's the thing, right, psychology of the player knowing
the system you're going into. And I don't mean that
from a play calling, just from a you know, what's
the situation young players being a leader, being a guy
that was available, And that was something Russell Wilson in Seattle.
He grew up with those guys and they were still standoffish, right,
(10:58):
and they both kind of had that magnet thing of
repelling each other. Right, So when we looked at it
as that one grew, they grew apart as opposed to
everybody as an underdog were all the same. He became
the big guy right with the big contract and all
the love, and that's what happens when you win as
(11:19):
a quarterback. But going to Denver, the expectations were huge
and you had a very easy fall guy when you
look at the coaching staff. So when it didn't work
in the running game, you had injuries, all of these things,
you could make some excuses, but anybody that was watching
the situation you're talking about the way he showed up,
was he in shape? Was he ready to lead? All
(11:40):
of those things right, having an office above everybody else,
all of those things that Sean Payton To me, it
was like, yeah, this guy.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Won't be around.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
That guy won't be around. That's the first I've heard
of it. Very dismissive of all of that. Nowther buddy
buddy sitting around at Nuggets games. But in Philadelphia, I
think the expectations of how you are going to carry
yourself and how much you were the guy probably wasn't
going to be the same the same level that it
was in Denver. I think they brought him in with
(12:09):
open arms, whereas he'd gone to Philly it would have
been a even with with a coach that didn't have
a lot of legs under him, that it still would
have been, Hey, you you've got to recognize what Philadelphia
is if you're coming in here.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
No, And and that's why it was.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
It was absolutely the worst place him to go. I mean,
I wouldn't want to. I'm sure he's like, no, come on, man,
they did. There's no way Philadelphia is my place to go.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
He was gonna have to work his ass off from
day one.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
There were no easy minutes or honeymoon phases for him
because remember he got a pass from a lot of
people for that game against Seattle to open the season,
not from us.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Well, because it was not from bus. They still could
have won.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
If if if Nathaniel Hackett then decided, no, I'm good
kicking a sixty three yard field goal.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
We're good from right here, sixty three yards, We're good.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Let's say again, but that was a moment of leadership,
let's say, vacating any idea of leadership, because you should
have flipped him off and said, there is I'm not
giving this up.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I'll tell the here.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
You talk about one game, one minute of play that
could have flipped the entire season. Maybe we'll I mean, look,
obviously you saw what happened with Wilson. He had a
lot of problems. But if that first game goes his
way and he gets him into field goal range, they
kick a field goal and they win that game, maybe
things are different. But it started so badly and it
never got out of It started so bad and it
got worse. And that was a whole big thing for
(13:26):
Russell Wilson. So that that thing, had they been able
to go, we'll go kick kick a field goal. Now
it's a forty five yard we get eighteen yards here,
aren't there.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
That's a big thing. Sometimes.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I believe in starts, man, And you can have a
great start and that can carry you through, and you
can have an awful start and look what happens.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
You know what that means?
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
What week wanted the Jets season? Man, we could have
had Let's Fly instead of Let's Ride. This is true.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Oh yeah, let's aination Let's fly. But I kind of
like let's ride. Let's ride.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
It's kind of cool. Nobody likes that.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
I think.
Speaker 2 (13:53):

really good reference.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yes, yeah, if you know al Haig, al Haig, if
you know al Hay or Alexander.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Some people like to I was gonna say, I don't
know that ever had him called a third basement for
the pirates in nineteen sixty five to nineteen seventy five.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
That was alight there?
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Hey, so uh it was in rotation before hour.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
So hang on a second here, so so help us out.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
So we get the story that Russell Wilson could have
been an Eagle last year but wouldn't waive as no
trade clause to go to Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
I got to think that's a.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Really smart He's lucky that was. Could you imagine if
he had played like that last year Philly. It was
bad enough that he did it in front of the
very sort of plain Jane, you know, nice people in Denver.
If he had done that in fully, if he played
(17:31):
like that in Philly, oh lord, it would have been
a disaster. He would they would have my god, Yeah,
that's just it would have been bad, really really really bad,
although they might have made him run more. But I
think that that's part of the problem is that, you know,
(17:53):
Russell Wilson is under this demented notion that he's a
pocket quarterback only, and I know all these people will
come back and go well career wise. His stats of
the pocket quarterback, yeah, he's he Up until last year
he had really good stats of the pocket quarterback because
people didn't know where he was going to be, and
(18:14):
so when he was in the pocket, you know, they
just weren't running, you know, straight up into the pocket
all the time try and chase him down. They had
to be wary of that he might get out on
the edges. As soon as he became a quote unquote
pocket quarterback and insisted upon that. It was like, oh,
you're a sitting duck. Now cool, and you're a short
(18:34):
sitting duck, so you know, like that's a bad combo
if you're a small quarterback. But he's under this, you
know this whole I'm the next Drew Breeze. And now
that he's got Sean Payton, you know, I untill try
and push that. But Peyton's smart enough to know. Now
you can't play that way. You have to play on
(18:55):
the edges of the pocket and move and move around
and be a moving target much more often. And we'll
see if he's capable of doing that.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
Now, we talked about it a little bit before j Coldy.
Where in the world will DeAndre Hopkins line up? Does
he become part of what is, at least on paper,
a pretty exciting collection of people with a giant question
market quarterback and Deshaun Watson there in Cleveland.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I don't know why is Deshaun Watson. I mean, okay,
he hasn't played a lot in two years. I get that.
But once he gets the rust off, I think Deshaun
Watson's going to be fine and he'll go back to
being a really great player. Now. My only problem with
Deshaun Watson is is his heart really into playing for
(19:42):
the Browns when they start to do Brown's things like
lose right, how long is he really going to be
into that? And is he going to be into it
when there's like eight inches of snow falling the night
before a game. Yeah, that's that's the other part of that,
because he's never played in that kind of weather.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
He's the question marks about John Watson.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Well, yeah, but it's not so much. I think that
I think the question marks are not about the talent's fine. No,
I think, yeah, the talent is fine. That you know,
is the into it is another question. But yeah, if
I would think Watson would certainly want to have they
know each other really well, the whole you know, the
whole thing that they want to be reunited, and Hopkins
(20:25):
thinks is a great opportunity for him at age thirty
basically to say no, no, I have another big contract
left in me if I can go to someplace where
the guy's going to throw me the ball and I'm
going to get ninety one hundred catches. Because I think
if he goes to any of these other places that
people have talked about, you know, like Jacksonville, right, people
have talked about that, that that's sort of a good
(20:47):
fit because he can be, you know, the guy who
works the you know, the red zone and works the
third down situations because he's bigger than their other outside
guys and he's tougher than Ridley and all those things.
You know, he becomes a specialist if he goes to
a place like Jacksonville, if he goes to Cleveland. He's
got a chance to be a number one again, and
(21:08):
that you know, if he can do that for one
season and then hit the market again, he's got one
more chance to get paid.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Jason Call with us The Jason Smith Show with my
best friend Mike Carmen and current still Hall of the
Same voter, Jason.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Call, holding on despite his best effort.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Yes, every week, well, this could be it. No, this
could be the week. No, this could be the sweetest
is out there on that ledge there, this could be
this could be I.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Just keep yeah, yeah, this is on me. That's it's
all on.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Me, all right. So let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Tom Brady says he's certain he's retired. Now, I feel
pretty certain he's not going to play for the Raiders.
But am I we certain he's not going to play
for any other team?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
If he's an owner of a team, that happens he's
not playing a Rodgers.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Owns the Bears. He's still playing. Sorry, dare you sorry?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
That? Well? He also he also owns the Jets front
office now exactly because he also owned Brian Gudakunst while
he was still there, so and the floor he owned
looks like he owns everybody who's in his path, which
is one of the reasons why Aaron Rodgers has only
one one Super Bowl. But that's beside the point. Where
(22:32):
were we on the squestion? Where are we starting on
this whole time we started with it?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Tom Brady, is he going to play anyway?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
If he if he owns the if he owns by
the team, he's not playing. It's over. It's just it's
done with right.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
But what if the paperwork is I'm going to come
in as an owner at suppl he signed a deal
with Fox.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
He may not start broadcasting till twenty thirty five.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
I don't think he's ever broadcasting because I don't think
he I don't think he has the chops for broadcasting,
because I don't think he wants to ever say thing negative.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
He does that podcast with Jim Gray. Come on, what
if he does games with Jim Gray?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
How I've listened to the podcast a couple of times,
you know, for information, and it's okay. If that's a
sign of what they're going to do on Fox. I mean,
they're going to expect him to bring more than that.
And here's the other thing that people don't get about
the analyst jobs, and you know, especially when you're on
(23:27):
the road, that job is a whole lot worse in
terms of travel than people really understand because you're on
the on the road basically four days a week for
the better part of twenty weeks. Now, I know a
lot of people, Oh, I have to travel for a
living and stuff like that. A lot of these guys
already have, you know, a decent amount of money in
(23:49):
the bank, and you know, getting up to travel and
doing that for that long. You know, one of the
reasons that Bruce Arians ran back to coaching is he
hated the travel that he had to go through to
be an analyst. I know Carson Palmer Will talked to
talk to Arians about and Arians told him and Carson's like,
I don't want to do that. So a lot of
(24:10):
this is I think he got a great deal. He
got offered you know, the Sun and the Moon basically
by Fox, and they started thinking about, Okay, what's my
life really going to be like? And when they started
talking about, well, you know, you have to leave on
a Thursday and you gotta do this, and you gotta
be here and then you're not getting back till Sunday.
Night at the earliest, probably Monday, blah blah blah. And
(24:32):
then you got to spend the entire week prepping for
the next broadcast or whatever you're going to do. And
by the way, we want you to do all these
other things since we're paying you. And ungodly did they
have to lower your guys salary to pay him? I
just wanted to know that.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, completely, Yeah, Harmon's not getting paid
until twenty forty.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I have to wear a sandwich you board out on
the Santa Monica peer that.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
If it's an art Deli sandwich board that is, it's
forth it it's digital.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I never know what's on there. That's got to be
a real heavy board to wear it is. I mean,
that's why.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
It's like it's like casals or maybe it's Jerry's. You
never know what you're getting on that same well it's yeah,
so yeah, and you know, nothing is like arts. Nothing
is like corn beef on Rye, right, you know corn
beef And that's from me on Rye from Arts with
Swiss cheese.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
By the way, Yeah, so when do you come into business?
We can share a sandwich.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
When are you coming to very soon?
Speaker 2 (25:33):
I'm now hungry, so let's make that happen.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
Anyways, Yeah, I think that. I just think that Brady's
looking at his life and saying, you know, I got
bigger things I can do, and if I'm going to
do something on in media, you know, he's already guy's
own production company. He's backing a lot of different projects
he's doing. You know, he's he's in pretty deep with
(26:01):
that thing. I think he's gonna sit there and say,
I'll do something from my own home the way that
Peyton does right, and just do this, you know bs
thing that you know where Eli mocked Peyton every week
and you know Peyton tries to get in some jobs
on I gotta say, I'm not sure that Eli is
a Hall of Famer as a player, and I said this,
(26:23):
you know, on another show earlier this week, but as
a broadcaster mocking his brother, absolutely one hall of famer.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
That was the thing I liked most of this last year, Jacole,
is that I always had from little interactions and then
his Saturday Night Live episode and everything else, this is
this impression that Eli was a lot more personable, uh
and funny than he ever got credit for. So it
was good that this was the coming out year and
that Peyton was the butt of the jokes.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
It was good.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
Oh absolutely. And the snark that comes out of Eli
is I mean he he siting in New York a
little better than anybody ever saw because he's almost snarky
enough to be in New Yorker, right Smith? Is that
fair to say? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Almost almost? I mean, you really have it. It's a
it's a big skill. I mean you can't just show
up and say hey, no, no, no, it is a skill.
But he is on his way.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
You developed that skill over years. And if you do
it and you grow up in the San Fernando Valley
like I did, and you're that snarky, that is quite
a trick.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I gotta tell you that you can fall him on Twitter.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
He is the master of snark. Jason Cole sixty two
check him out on OutKick.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
He is still a Hall hall Still he's still a
Hall of Famer fame.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
What's your name? What's your name? What's your name?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
His aides book is out.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
It's awesome that he wrote with Tim Tebow's brothers, all
about what good.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
I love it Tim Tebow.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I think I think that Tim Tebow Brothers story it
might be my favorite story that you've almost.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
As good as a reference. Yeah, Tim Teba's brothers asking
for money to do a YMPA.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
That is one of the best ever.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
The Brady book reference almost as good as the al
Hag reference was good.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Sure, the Brady Book, the l Way book. You can
get it, buddy. We'll talk to you next week. Have
fun by Buddy.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
There goes Jason call unbelievable. Yeah, he's the best man.
He ran an al Haig reference.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Alexander Haig the last Alexander Haig reference I had.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
He appeared. His name appears in a Roger Waters song.
I remember making Reagan and Hague. I remember I made
her Memories of Nixon. I made an al Haig reference.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
I chose very nice. I'm on Twitter, very nice, like
that your avatar Alexander.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
No, But realistically, for those uh, the conversation with Jason Cole,
you never want to know where it's going to go.
But you get a lot of lists radios because you know,
you actually put that up, uh kind of saying hey,
you know whereabouts and all of those kind of things
you make the list like, yeah, there's a lot of
that on sports talk radio right now, a lot of
list radio, and we could do that, and we do
(29:51):
do that kind of imprompt you tongue in cheek, whatever.
But you're not finding an Alexander Haig reference on any other.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Anywhere, not one hundred percent.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
You're not.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Now, there's a big story out of the NBA Finals
to get to uh, Jimmy Butler giving a one word
I would say, urgent message to his team.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
But we're gonna do that in a few minutes. Ty
Shirt hot route, hot route.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
No, no.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Long a second baby, the other hot route. This is
a cold route.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
This is a flaming other hot route, the other hot route.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
No, you're really just taking the wind out of my
sales here, you're really again hot route. There's so many
And now it's the Magic Johnson Twitter game.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Because three hours ago Magic Johnson started tweeting about game one.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Really three hours ago, Magic's got some tweets on game two.
Speaker 4 (31:04):
They have a server that went down, so they just
got queued before finally being unleashed.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
So we haven't just watch it.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
No, I don't know, maybe just finished who notes could
be on tape delay somewhere else. So it's time for
the Magic Johnson Twitter game. No more obvious vanilla tweeter
than Magic Johnson. Your job is simply to discern whether
or not this is a real Magic Johnson tweet or
made up by me playing as myself. Mike Harmon, Steve Desager,
Justin Frossberg, Alex tyshert are we ready?
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Let's go? You bet you?
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (31:35):
You bet you?
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Denver's length is going to be a major problem for
the Miami Heat? Is that a Magic Johnson tweet? Knowing
full well that I said that last night the entire show.
I am gonna say, yes it is, and they saw
it on the funt the fun on the fund. But
we also probably shouldn't have done that tweet until at
least ten o'clock.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Sat Farbar kind of tweet.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Everything in that tweet is act writ okay, saying yes,
all right and pretty basic Yes, Steve, yeah, ty shirt,
Hi Jason. No, not a magic Johnson tweet. Denver's length
is going to be a major problem for the Miami Heat.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
That is.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I don't know what that was, but that again, never
go full nickelback. It is a magic Johnson tweet. Very good,
very good, very good.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Nikola jokicch proving he can be an MVP two in
game one with all of his assists? Is that a
magic Johnson tweet? Nikola Jokich proving he can be an
MVP two in game one with all of his assists?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
No, okay, yeah, he would have given all the Joker
stats in game one. Okay, all right, saying no.
Speaker 5 (32:52):
I'll go ahead and say yes, because I've heard he
dictates the the tweets, and that sounds like him just
saying half a sentence.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
All right, Steve, you're in trouble because I also say, yes, oh,
that is like the kiss of death, not a magic
Johnson tweet.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Oh but Mookie Betts is homeward again, guys. Yeah, I
think Dick Tidrow's on in relief for the Yankees. Sweet.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
We got Alexander Hag and Dick Tiddrow into the second
hour of the show.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
That was good. I gotta listened to all. Very nice.
Dick Tidrow, Dick Tidrow, it's the Cubs a long time too.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
The real heroes of the game were Aaron Gordon, Michael
Porter Junior.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
And Bruce Brown. Is that a magic Johnson tweet? With
the real hero?
Speaker 1 (33:40):
The real heroes of the game were Aaron, Michael Porter Junior,
and Bruce Brown. So Kitsch was not a hero, not
a hero, not a real hero, hero, a real hero.
They were imposters a real American hero.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
It's stupid enough, but I'll say no, okay, yeah, I'm
with it. Okay Frostburg, Oh, I said, yeah, he's friends
with Mark Jackson. Okay, all right, he's friends. Very nice.
I was very subtle. What do you got tight shirt?
Now I don't like this one.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Now you don't like that one the real heroes of
the game, Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter Junior, and Bruce Brown.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
That is.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
A magic Johnson. Wow tweet. Of course it is good
luck Clayton Kershaw. Is that a Magic Johnson? Well, if
that's three hours ago, then Shirt he would have said
my Dodger's picture. You know, though we are in June,
(34:43):
magic putt.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
Going back to the prior tweet of talking about real heroes,
we often talk in June about real something else relating
to news stories in LA.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Anyway, this one, yeah, I'll say, yeah, no way, ty Shirt.
I shouldn't think so K doesn't need luck.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
That is.
