let me let me give you a challenge, Alex Tyshirt.
I'm gonna challenge you for the rest of the show
tonight and any Because of this, we won't hear any
more tears for fears. We spent some time last hour,
I mean really was fun reflecting very organically on Perfect Strangers,
big TV show of the nineties with Marklynn Baker and
brons Up and Shall as Balkie. Part falcon was don't
(01:12):
beat uh yeah again. There would be no boor at
without Balkie. So and you played the theme song the
Perfect Strangers did Ruse and fu so the rest of
the night. When we when we starting, when we're starting
all our conversations, I need from you a TV theme
(01:35):
song from the nineties. And you can go as obscure
as you want, but it's got to be a show
that people have seen. Hmm, all right, so you already
do this sometimes some guys. Actually no, you're usually in
the CV theme song from the nineties, right, And you
can't pick like Cheers or now. You gotta pick something
(01:56):
if it's an anime show. Again, it's got to be
a show that people scene.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I'll stop it. People have seen those what what have
they seen? A lot?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Like what?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Neon Genesis is one of the biggest nineties anime in
the world.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Genesis was a band in the eighties Collins No Longer
Things for them, You're too much.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
This was the spinoff called Neon Neon Jennis because in
the nineties, they painted themselves like the highlighters.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
They were trying to reinvent themselves. Hey, there's more color
in the nineties. You know, we got we had all
the big reds in the.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Mike Rutherford was a fluorescent pink about Cowboy Bebop that's
another great anime.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Uh isn't that the song they played when the Cowboys
score a touchdown?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Thankfully? No, you play Cowboy Bebopop?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Was by those other guys Hanson, Yeah, Tyler Taylor Taylor.
There's Taylor Taylor. There's William Henry Harrison. I died in
thirty days. It was no, it was Taylor was the
really talented one. He was the drummer in the second
and there was the older, the tall one, and then
the younger kid who played the drums. M Bob Bob
(02:56):
bob do Taylor.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
There's a Joshua Joshua is John Hanson, Isaac Isaac, Yes,

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Okay, very good, Yeah, Guru John Hanson. He became a
fantasy football analyst. Sure, No, okay, all right, so there
you go, Ty Shirt forgot, let's do that. Forgotten TV
theme songs from the nineties let's do it that way
for good. Forgotten TV theme songs of the nineties. That
that that'll that'll that that'll figure it out that way.
All right, fine, that'll be the best thing, right again.
(03:27):
All right, so forgotten theme songs of the nineties.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Okay, and then I also challenge you to give me
a new anime from the nineties every time too.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Uh Baku goon right? Right? Is that the opposite no
baki ghan was? Isn't that like the the the one
level lower of Pokemon? Right is? That's pretty sure?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
That was a monster in Godzilla that he find No
baka gun.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Is a thing?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Hang with which era of Godzilla? Are we talking the claymation.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Oh, we're talking rubber suit.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Godzi School, Yeah, Baki Gun Battle Planet, bakigunt Brawlers. There's
cards and games and everything.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah. See it's not Pokemon, right, it's like but it's.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
The same thing. It's like Pokemon got popular. Hey, let's
come up with something very much like it. Like, okay, great,
and now now we have it like when Army, Like
when Armageddon came out, it was, Hey, let's do something
just laugh about deep impact. All right, great, we'll do that.
That'll be fine. Hey, we have all these these couple
of good Walking Dead zombie movies. Let let's let's put
(04:25):
all kinds of rip off TV shows and zombies we
can get out there, and we're gonna extend that universe
as long as we can bleed money from it. Rauz
and Fu.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
So like Meagan, ever since Jeffrey Dean Morgan, ever since
he was killed off of Grey's Anatomy, he was spoiler.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I was just gonna start watching season one, episode one
of Gray's Anatomy.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Now, they really dragged his an Izzy storyline out a
little too long before she left.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But he's been on that you say left, okay, all right?
How many seasons now for Graising Anatomy? Like twenty oh okay,
kind of cheese me off those.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
So my older daughter was really into it, right, So
I decided I'm gonna hunk her down and I'm gonna
watch it on a streaming service and I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Catch up ahead of the season. I'm gonna catch you. No, No,
I got ahead. She's got a very good mind. So,
like like.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
We do here with sports or whatever, where you compartmentalize
it and you can recall it, right, this storyline is.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
No, I get it, but you're gonna try to catch
up to twenty seasons of twenty episodes. But I was
working out and doing other things.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
I'd have it streaming in the background, and I finally
catch up and the season premiere comes this two years ago.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
She goes, oh, I'm not watching it anymore. Well, because
it took you so long to catch up. She was done. No, no, no, no,
because it was just no. But it was coming back.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
And then like she was done and she was ready,
and I'm like, all right, I caught up, so we
can watch the new season and talk about it together
and have this bonding moment.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
She said, beat it. I don't watch it anymore, man, jerk.
Now I feel you, though, because we did the same
thing with Supernatural, and it was we watched fifteen the
seasons of Supernatural. I thought watching Agents of Shield seven
seasons of Agents of Shield was a lot, but fifteen
seasons because every every season is twenty some on episodes,
and here's a bad guy vampire covin the zombie, here's
(06:15):
God and the Devil and death and all this, and
every week it was Dean and Sam and Baddie in
the week and I'm like, wow, twenty seasons, man, that
was yeah, but at least with Agents of Shield you
had Ming Ming Nah, I did, and we had twenty
fifth annivers sure sure, uh yeah yeah, And what's y No, no, no, no,
Henry Simmons was in it. And who else he hung
(06:38):
out with Mark Paul Gosler he did, Yeah, they were
They weren't partners in NYPD Blue. No, he was partners
with Metal Clan, who was also Shock from an Out.
And now we've come all the way back to sports.
They always say when you talk movies, bring it back
to sports. Just brought it back to eight man Out.
So Draymond Green is now going to be a free agent,
(06:59):
and we talked a few minutes ago about how look,
if you're the Warriors, I hope it's just fake interest
in yeah, we want to bring you back. Hey, we
really want you, so it doesn't look like we're kicking
a guy to the curb that helped us build a dynasty.
But you're just not good enough. I think you're doing
if the price is right, I just but if he's
opting out of a one year, thirty six million dollar deal,
(07:21):
he's hoping to do exactly what James Harden did, is
I want to get back now maybe a three year
ninety million dollar deal or like take less money for
one year, but I get more overall. And that's what
I'm hoping to do, because if I could do this
one year at thirty six million, but then what am
I gonna get after that? But if I'm out now,
I can get three years. That's what he's hoping to do.
(07:41):
And it's not that he doesn't have value. Draymond Green
has value, but he has value as an over the
top guy for an NBA title contender, a team that says,
you know, what we're missing is his attitude, his defensive
prowess and the intangibles he brings to the team. That's
what we need and that is value for this year
(08:01):
or next year. That's huge value. But for the Warriors,
it's dude, you can't build. You can't bring him back
and say the same three guys, we're gonna do it
when Klay Thompson is not the same guy and Draymond
Green is not the same guy. You're just not talented enough.
You got knocked out in the second round by the Lakers,
who are actually older than you are, and you think
you're gonna bring this, bring the three guys back, they're already.
(08:22):
We got to move on from Jordan Poole, who knows
about Jonathan Kaminga and all these guys you thought were great, Uh,
guess what not working. It's a reload on the fly.
It's very difficult. I get it because they meant a lot,
but you know, you have to make these sound decisions.
And for Mike Dunleavy Junior, who certainly worked with the
team and worked his way up and got the promotion,
he doesn't nearly have the the loyalty to Clay and
(08:47):
Steph and Draymond like Bob Myers did. So hopefully it's
easier to move on. Still, is it gonna be difficult?
But hey, if we made an offer, but we want
to bring you back, but hey, you get this offer
from the Knicks or the Celtics or the Grizzlies or
the Nuggets, whatever it's going to be, Hey, you should
probably take it because that's where he has value. But
coming back is a lynchpin for the word.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
No.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Warriors got to get They gotta dump everybody, and they
got to get better. They gotta reload on the fly
and not waste Steph who is still scoring thirty some
odd points a game with thirty four years old. Yeah,
it's the big curiosity to it is how much loyalty
and does the bridging out of Myers allow for a reset?
Obviously you're coordinating with Steph and Steve Kerr to try
(09:30):
to figure out what the next iteration is. Can remember
Steph and his exit was really pointed in is Hey,
this guy's gonna be a key pointing to Jordan Poole's locker.
And that's something done Levy talked about a little bit today. Hey,
he's under contract for four years. It's our guy. But
as we know, again if the price is right, anything
(09:50):
can be had and anything can happen in this marketplace
because as long as you have your coaches and star players, blessing,
but Clay is not the same guy in any way,
shape or form. Back to back nights playoff series, they
gave away two games to the Lakers, right, And that's
the thing, and that's the margin of error where we're
at in this across the NBA is they gave away
(10:14):
two games they should have won in the fourth quarter
because they didn't have enough size to get the key
rebound or to make a play and spread the offense.
Those things weren't there, which why porzingis showing up is
going to solve all of that. See what I did there,
I just put big weight on his shoulders to do that.
But with Klay Thompson, shot was off right.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
You can tell me it was Denver's big bodies and
stuff flying past him. His accuracy was terrible and he
can't create space for himself right, even the quick step
to try to get a better shooting lane, it's not
as fluid as it was. Is that coming back off
an injury? Is it still needing time?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Well? How much time do you need? And that's another,
you know, another year on the odometer as it flows.
With Jordan Poole, Is he ever gonna be a complete player? No,
but he's a good offensive player and the contract you
signed him to makes him gonna be He's gonna be
very difficult to move if you did decide to go
in that direction, right, So that that's part of the
process of all right, if he becomes your second unit,
(11:16):
second line score and this canna play together just fine.
But in terms of paying out Draymond and Claye to
top of market, contracts. You can't do it.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
No, it's kind of like, well, you're more bullish on
the Phoenix move, and obviously it's a great of an
incomplete because we don't know what the roster looks like.
But you're basically trying to do the same thing. All right,
we're gonna keep these guys who aren't elite scorers besides
Steph at a high rate and then build around it.
You just saw it didn't work. It didn't get you through.
(11:47):
And even if you say, well, with this and this,
we could have beaten we should have beaten the Lakers. Fine,
you're still getting drummed by the Nuggets. Right if you
had advanced, you're still gonna get beaten out, Like you
don't match up with that squad at all. So you
just don't need to do a lot of work and
reconfigure some of those salaries. So you make the best,
good faith, save face effort. But the reality is you're
(12:08):
hoping that the dollar amount is not enough but not insulting.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Where you utive because you and you also need the
team to look like, hey, I'm gonna go there and
they'll treat me right, And I'm like, boy, these guys
just won you know, you know, there's won five championships
and when it went bad, you'll cut those guys loose.
You're just kicking them to the curb. So you have
to do it the right way. But I also I
also see Draymond and Clay that understand that, and that
(12:34):
Clay is like, listen, if you don't, I can go
to the Lakers and I'd love to go there. I'd
love Hey, you know, where's a destination you'd like to
go to where you think for a couple of years
you could do it because there's no shame in doing that.
It's so I'm hoping that that's what it is. But
if like, if you just decide we're gonna bring we're
really gonna bring these guys back and give them all
kinds of money you can't don't give You don't give
people money for what they've already for services already night.
(12:55):
You know you can't.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
That's the one thing we always talking about, right and
every once in a while you do add that transcendent
superstar where you recognize what the end of the road
looks like for your squad and you over pay them
grossly for what they've done. See the final years of
the Kobe Bryant contracts. But outside of that, you know,
it's a it's a losing formula. And I did like
(13:16):
that there was a faux Draymond Green account that was
getting a bunch of folks earlier today.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Raymond Green account, it was Draymond not the real you
sure wasn't somebody it was Ramon. Okay, so kind of
going on a darn chef road. But the idea of
boy lebron can't wait to get to La to play
with you. Didn't you stay? We're getting pretty excited, is
that Draymond Green?
Speaker 6 (13:41):
Right?
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, Raymond Green? No, I said, did sound like you said?
Sound like you said dream? No, no, no, I said
Draymond Green. Again. Sounded like you had an m there
at the end. No, no, no, Draymond, I said Raymond Green. Again,
sounded like you said. The uh Tonight's show brought to

big story off the weekend that seems like it's half good,
half bad. I'll tell you why it's all good. Is
this the nick story you've been avoiding?
Speaker 5 (14:18):
No?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
No, no, no, no no. Everything is fine with the Knicks rumors.
We're getting mbat, it's fine. We're getting embat gen Zion, Yes,

danger to you, your passengers and other drivers. They take
longer to stop, not to mention, they decrease your vehicle's
fuel economy. To check, grab a quarter stick it in
the tread. If you can see the top of pedal linzos,
if you can see the top of wash Rington's head,
it's time to replace. Although putting peede alonzo on coins

singing it, so you're gonna get it pretty true. Actually,
just play the Wild Wild last instead, Wow Wild, just
really quick, because you know it's on one of our
TV's now and it's holiday, we're a little loosen and
talking about stuff today. Full Metal Jacket is on. I
(17:06):
gotta say this, ever, the first half of Full Metal
Jacket is the best first half of any movie I've
ever seen.
Speaker 7 (17:12):
In my life.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Should we go live to it?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Janet's no, don't go live to it? Because what Private
Pile's gonna do? Pile? Poor Private and a good Run.
It's two movies, right, because it's completely no, completely different.
The first half of this movie is the best movie
I've ever seen. And the more times I see it,
the more times I can't believe Vincent and Afrio did
not win an Oscar for Private Pile. Every time he's
(17:35):
on the screen as the movie goes on, you're just
it's one of those where, oh, what's gonna happen, kind
of like when you watch The Boys right now in
Homelanders on the screen, You're like, Oh my god, what's
he gonna do? Oh my god, That's what it was
like seeing him. I can't believe he didn't win. But
it came out the year after Platoon, and Platoon had
won everything and they're like, oh, here's another war. We're
not gonna do it again for another war movie. So
barely won anything. But I'm telling you that this this movie,
(17:58):
first half best movie I've ever seen. Vince that Narfio
should have easily won, and as.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
You know, he was also he's had an amazing career,
but should have one here. He was great in the Cell.
One that I don't think gets mentioned to Jennifer Lopez.
Jennifer Na Vince Vaughan and uh, what's this guy who
was the Vince Taylor prou At Vince.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Yes, okay, very good, very very good movie going down.
He's got a good book as well, I mean some
some writings and scrawlings that he's done, so very accomplished.
And he's part of the Law and Order family, so
you know, I'm gonna celebrate his every celebration question.

weekend for the US m n T in soccer. Right
(18:54):
we beat Canada. Oh yeah, we beat the crap out
of Mexico and Mexico is so mad that they have
to stop the game because of the chant, you know,
all the crazy ass stuff. But the United States looks
as dominant as any time I have ever seen them.
But they fired their coach exactly right, Well, that's very well,
that's we got to get to Burholter. So they have
(19:16):
looked as dominant in these last couple of games, and
better than I've ever seen them, at a point where
not only can we do some damage, we should be
some of the big bullies on the block. All the
young players have come through, and they're all coming through now.
And for a team like Canada we've had trouble with
right beat the bit, it wasn't even close. Right, United
(19:37):
States got the two big goals. Geo Raina set them
both up, and we go on and win and it's
not even close. We beat Mexico and the gap between
the United States and Mexico has never been bigger.
Speaker 6 (19:48):
This is it.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
All the young players here, whether it's Polistic or rain
or anybody else, they're all here. And yet this is
dampened with the news that Greg Burholter is coming back
to be the USMNT coach, a guy who had trouble
scoring goals. His look. We talked about Burholter, he gets
out coached on game day plenty of times. He is
(20:10):
beholden to certain players and doesn't give opportunities to more
talented players at certain times. And that's a big thing
for me. It's not that he's a bad coach, but
you and I have talked about he's an A to
B coach and you can see in the big games
the United States isn't ready. That loss of the Netherlands
looked like a team that hadn't practiced. Why are you
not covering the back post?
Speaker 7 (20:29):
How?
Speaker 1 (20:29):
I can't believe. How do you not do these simple things?
But that's Burholter and it's really disappointing to see that.
Now we're going to go back to a guy who
wasn't good enough and we let his contract last at
the end of the year and six months go by
and they're playing great. No, let's go back to the guy.
It doesn't make sense. Now, what about Joe Rayner, right,
who now he's playing everybody should be blonde because he's great,
(20:50):
And now what's his pace going to be like because
his parents tried to get him fired from the USMNT. Right,
So that's really really difficult. Moved on months in theory
to rectify that lay those fears and part of it,
and we talked about it is, uh, you go back
to just the style of play and in terms of position,
(21:12):
Raina should have had a bigger role. I mean everybody
still knew that from the outside looking in. So it
was like, what's behind the scenes that it becomes a
personal thing and personal n datas get him fired. All
these accusations out in the press and everything else that
got ugly and hopefully, yeah, you were able to smooth
that over because right now he's your best player. I
(21:32):
love polistic, but rain is a different thing now saying
you're gonna be the big bullies and anything. No, no, no, no,
we gotta you know, crawl before we're walking out. We're
already a periphery time. Yeah yeah, no, I'll give you
the top fifteen. That's a lot of teams. Yeah, but
that way.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
We never do top fifteen rankings, Jason. Let's doing fantasy football.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
But you're talking about a sport where you talk about
the top sixty four teams in the world. For a
long time, we were in the bottom. Now are Perifrey
top ten, top fifteen team? In another year? Are we
a top ten team? Definitively maybe could be. I mean
polistic was our best player against Mexico? You had the
ball all that? I mean he was, you know, he
was basically the MVP of the run here and fantastic
(22:16):
even with Raina doing the setups and such. Got a
chance to watch a good chunk of it the last
couple of games. Curious about burr Halter and how much
of that is did you learn? What did you learn?
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Like that?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
That's the first question all this what did you learn
in the six months you weren't on the job. I'm
glad you asked that question because I'm gonna blow your
mind now for why they brought him back? Okay, and
this is where because I'm not excited about burr Halter
backs so we can now he can go back, so
we can not score goals? Great, that's awesome. Why bring
Burhlter back? Follow me on this.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
Hit me.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
So you've seen over the last few months the team
has played well. The young players have all come through.
And these are all young players that are his because
I gotta give him credit because he has brought these
young players along. This is on his watch, sure, so
they're all coming here they are now they're all playing well.
We've had a couple of different interim coaches. They've done
well while they're coaching in his place while we figure
it out. They can't get whoever they really want to
(23:11):
get for whatever reason, And so why go back to Burhalter?
All the next four years are gonna be so tough,
and no, he's gonna but is this a four year
job for him? Is this we're bringing bur aalter back
for four years or is this a team doing what
you see happen sometimes in sports, in football, Baseball, the NBA,
(23:37):
where a team brings a guy back or gives him
a second chance at a different job because maybe he
might turn out to be a good head coach, and
we want to be sure before we say we're done
with you. Right, You see it, and you see it
in the four major sports all the time. Here's a
coach they bring. Is a coach really good, like a
guy like Robert Salah? Hey, is he really good?
Speaker 7 (23:58):
Well?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
I don't know. He had a really rough rookie year.
Maybe the job is too big for him, but you
know what, he showed some glimpses he might be good.
So rather than cut bait, let's bring him back for
a second year and see if it's better. And the
second year is better, now you get in roll. So
that's what that's what I see the United States doing
with this, is that these are all Burholter's guys. I mean,
Rain is not a Baroltar guy, but but but all
(24:21):
these are Burholter's guys. Are we sure he's that bad?
We have four years to the World We have a
long time to go to the World Cup, right, we
have a long time to go to get there. Not
for we have left. We have three years to get
to the World Cup. We've seen that other other guys
have come in to coach this team. Can we give
him a year and see if he gets better, If
(24:43):
he improves and the team stays good and gets better,
and then maybe we have found our guy. Are we
absolutely sure that Burholter is no good? And I guarantee
you the answer was, uh, I I don't know. Are
we better? Well, we can't really get for whatever reason,
they couldn't get a guy. They couldn't get a high
(25:03):
profile guy they really wanted. Are they really sure that
Burholt is not any good? Could you do this for
a year and then revisit and go you know what,
not working. So for the next two years, we got
a new coach coming in with new things and new ideas,
and here's the players we understand. We can promote from within.
Whatever it is. You can bring either of the interims back.
They've they've done a good job. So that's kind of
how I see. It's why I don't think there's any
(25:24):
bad news for US Soccer now. It's not all here
comes Burrow because this is gonna be burhlter for now.
And if things get bad and they're suddenly not playing hard,
because that was a big hallmark of the team. As
talented as they are, some nights they show up. Sometimes
they know why they're not showing up against El Salvador.
How are we losing this game? How are we tying
this game? So if that happens, yeah, then you got
(25:45):
two years to figure it out. We don't have to
worry about qualifying. We don't have to worry about that.
That's out the window. If qualifying was a thing, maybe
be a different a different decision, but they don't have
to because we're hosts, so we just go right into
the World Cup. So with that, knowing on that that's
the case, then why not see and make sure he's
(26:05):
not the guy and if we're wrong, Hey, we have
our coach and we're getting ready. Maybe we're thinking, you know,
semis of the World Cup or you know, two games
out of the knockout round, and if we're and if
he's proved not okay, and then we know for a
fact this is as far as he could take the
team and we're moving on. That's kind of how I
see Berholta coming back. Yeah, I think there's a couple
of pieces to it.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Number one, not unprecedented for the US men's national team
to recycle a coach. Remember our guy Jurgen Klinsmann gone
comes back. In this case, you had the domestic violence
allegations that were made public. The dirty laundry was the
words that you saw in the phrase used in a
(26:47):
lot of articles talking about it, that it goes public.
And the rift with Raina and his family became a
big enough deal to where and perhaps time down in
distance right where the climate of the universe and particularly
the United States was in terms of a domestic violence chart,
(27:10):
You've got to separate from him, and they did you investigate?
Speaker 1 (27:13):
You see where you're at. See if there's some way
to bridge both that side of things in terms of
you know, coming to terms with that as being associated
with your coach. But the other the friction with Raino
one of your more promising players, but from a team perspective,
continuity in that he had worked to grow these players
(27:34):
and it is a young roster that you've brought them
maybe from point B, but can you eke a little
more out because you have a cycle now where you've
got a couple of years where you'll play some important matches,
but important with a lowercase I rather than the gravity
of Hey, the World Cup is upon us.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
So you see how the team gels. You see if
there's any more malcontentedness and where the effort is in
future friends, lee's and fixtures that you have coming up.
And if that's the case, then perhaps you're full ahead
as opposed to starting over with a new philosophy, a
new mix of players and responsibilities. So here you have
(28:15):
a bit of continuity, and I think for the United
States that probably sells more than anything, right, is that
you've got a guy that rain Is accepted, that you'd
seemingly gotten the best out of a lot of these
players and brought them up. So for the United States,
now you get to bridge and see if B two
(28:35):
C can happen under his watch, because really, it can't
get any worse, right, I mean, because you haven't hit
the pinnacle, right You're not at top of the mountain
the old hey, you know, the dynasty that falls apart
or the team that's right there and crumbles. You're still
on the cusp of that top ten as you said,
top ten, top fifteen.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
That's great. That means you're making it in bracketology and
you're you're in a top five seed. Great, that's still
not top of the mountain. So the the tumbling out
of there isn't going to be disastrous. But the potential
to maybe make the tweak or two to get you
to where you're competing for a World Cup title is there.
Speaker 6 (29:18):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Look, it's it's close as it's ever been. And I
if this is how the decision is made, I kind
of get it. I mean I disagree with it. I think, look,
there's a reason why you let it laps the first
time right there, Like you know, you know, you don't
go you don't go back to your exit and say
let's get married again. I mean that doesn't. It doesn't
happen again, and it does have a lot of success
when it actually happens. Does it really have a lot
(29:38):
of success? Yeah? But how successful is everything else?
Speaker 7 (29:42):
It did?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Not many people do that you have, but not many
people like each other that have been around each other
a long time. You know, I couldn't find anybody I
liked as much as you. So hey, let's give another show.
Sure we are, we're stuck. You know, we're stuck. So
we're gonna bring you back as head couch now, so
that I kind of get I kind of get it,
I kind of get right now, Brian Finley's gonna tell
us what's trending in the wide world?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
You think so leading look at that?
Speaker 1 (30:04):
What, of course is going to be the New York
Mets twenty eight to one win over the Houston Astros tonight.
Speaker 6 (30:09):
It wasn't twenty eight to one. That might be a
slight hyperbole, but eleven to one. Here's how that final
moment sounded.
Speaker 7 (30:16):
Hartwig delivers swinging a bouncing ball to third. It was left, baby,
he's up with a ghost. A second horse play put
it in the box. The New York Mets come in
to Houston, and clabber the defending world champion Astros.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
That would be eleven to won the final score. That
call courtesy of the New York Mets Radio Network. One
game is still going on and it's the Padres leading
the Giants in San Francisco four to two, bottom of
the seventh fair. Juan Soto has a pair of solo
home runs as far as some of the other other finals.
To mention here, Alex Ferdugo four RBI for the Red
Sox as they tear into the Twins nine to three.
(30:52):
The Brewers lost nine to one to the Diamondbacks, and
because of Cincinnati and the Red's ninth straight win, which
came tonight five to four again against the Rockies. Since
he's in first in the end of Central, they have
not done that at this stage of the season since
twenty twelve. That seems like something that the Mets would
be dealing with. Meanwhile, the Rangers five to two they
(31:12):
overcome Mike Harmon's White Sox. That's the final score.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
We also saw the.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
Cubs rip into the Pirates eight to nothing, the Marlins
with an eleven to nothing thrashing of the Blue Jays
Tiger six, the Royals four Cardinals overcome the Nationals eight
to six. Paul Goldschmid had that game defining home run
in the six the go ahead blast from him. And
in college we had in Omaha the College World Series.
(31:39):
Two games today, including the late one which saw a
come from behind win for wake Forest. It was tied
to to with LSU a score a run in the
eighth and three to two wake Forest winners against LSU,
meaning because LSU lost, they're gonna have to take on
Tennessee after the Vauls an elimination game earlier today, six
to four winners against the Stanford Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
How many? How many points for Tim Duncan today for
wake Forest. Let's see, did you know that he was
a he was going the route of swimming for this bird? No,
did you know that he was going the route of
being a swimmer? And then a hurricane came in the
Caribbean and he was discovered by a wake Forest scout
who was vacationing there on an island. I did not
know that. Yeah, it sounded like the beginning of the
(32:22):
song from Hamilton. I was just thinking a hurricane.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
Yeah, he was supposed to be a competitive swimmer.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Well, when you're six eleven. You start out with a
big advantage over everybody else.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
Yes, by the way, the best nineties show, if you're
gonna ask me, I forgot the name of the show.
It was on Oxygen and.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
The whole You tell me what show was the best?
You can't even say the name.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Well, I know the host Sujo Hanson, but it was
on Oxygen.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
You don't even know the name of the show. How
can you say it's the best show? And Phil saw
it all? Well, you know, my favorite movie of all
time is that? It's that one I get. I can't
remember with that guy? What's that guy's name?
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Do you know what show I'm talking about?
Speaker 1 (32:58):
No, I don't know. You don't, No, a show that
was on the Oxygen Now, how dare you you know?
Speaker 3 (33:04):
It might?
Speaker 6 (33:04):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:04):
I had to look it up.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
Yes, like.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
A show that was on Oxygen.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Oh, it's amazing. I'll send you.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
I didn't even know what the hell you talk I
can't even read. I'm fifty two. I can't see your
computer from that far away. What's the name of the show?
It's called what? Sue Johansson Canadian nurse? Hang on, she's
ninety three. She just show called wait then, yeah, yes,
how can you tell me that's the best show? Because
(33:37):
he wanted to giggle like he was twelve.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Yeah, I mean how you get to learn from someone?
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Did you stay up late at night, like pretend that
the TV was on? You ever call in your mom
said I am Brian, time to go to bed. Okay, Mom,
I'm going to bed. I'm gonna watch this. I had
to learn somehow. My parents didn't share any of that
with me.
Speaker 6 (33:55):
We were very conservative as far as not telling those
kind of things to each other. So I had to
go out and find one in a place where I
could learn, and.
Speaker 7 (34:03):
That was it.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
That's like when you would listen to a show late
at night there was a calling show that was about
sex or some kind of tough topic to talk, yeah,
and you would hear the person calling. They would go, Hi,
this is Jim. I'm calling from Long Island. Jim. You
gotta speak up. Jim. Hey, can we call your mommy
confirm this?
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Sorry, I'm uh yeah, I'm talking a little bit louder, No, Jim,
we can't really hear you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know
the guy's calling from his base. Mike, I don't win
up anybody's crank you up as far as we can.
You're gonna have to speak louder.
Speaker 6 (34:34):
So.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
I'm having problems with this girl and sex. I got
issues and no, no, it's always Hey, this is Joe.
I'm calling from Saskatchewan and I have a question.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
Think more patriotic.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Flags of Our Father.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
That's a good movie. This is American gladiators.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
This is American glass. All right, all right, very good us.
He cast American gladiators while Fenlu was watching what he
was doing late night, I was watching competition sport pugilist.
I want to take you out a dinner and then
go back to my apartment to watch kung Fu. You
(36:03):
here like kung fu? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I get
let's go. I love kung fu. Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
Uh that's kind of you. Do you have a kung
fu grip. I'm just not gonna go into work anymore.
So you're quitting. No, I'm just not gonna go.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Today in Major League Baseball, another amazing day for a
guy who was attempting absolute baseball history. You're gonna think
it's this headline from a day ago, but oh no, no,
somebody went five for five again.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
One and two, and this time he's gonna drive it
around maybe two.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
Here comes Bernie. He'll score five for.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Five to.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
Two.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Three. We can't have friends. That's out to four hundred.
Uh Luisa Raya is another five for five day. His
back average was down a three seventy eight. Fron oh
for fifteen, slepting like okay. That was a great run
at four hundred, he had a good run. Now another
five hit game. This is his third this month, and
now he is hitting an even four hundred for the
(37:13):
Marlins as he is now the latest in a season
with a four hundred batting average since no More Garciapara
in two thousand with the Red Sox when he's hitting
four hundred after ninety one games. Seventy games he was
in that season, Remember he was good nor he had
a good run. It was good. He just didn't men.
(37:35):
It had a very high peak, like very fast, and
then he crashed down. He's almost halfway through the season,
seventy three games at four hundred. How about this, here's
a stat that was thrown up. Yeah, I know, one
hundred and two hits the season.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
Yankees have ninety six hits as a team from guys
not named Judge.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Think about that, ninety six hits as a team. So
outside of the injured Aaron Judge, Mike Judge has a
few hits. Judge, Reinhold has a few hits. Look, this
is an awesome story and a guy that can get
hits in bunches like this, is he gonna hit four hundred? No,
it's just too hard to do it. It's too hard
(38:21):
to do. It's two for five every day. You have
a one for four day the net. You have two
one for four days in a row. You need six
hits in your next two games. Right, it's just too
hard to do. But can he make a run at
this because he has bunches and bunches where we're talking
about post All Star break, he's hitting four hundred. Yeah,
you can stay hot for that long. You can do it. Look,
we watched George Brett hit three ninety back in nineteen eighty,
(38:44):
but he only played in one hundred and eighteen games.
The more games you play, the harder it is because
you can only improve your average by so much and
you lose so much off it with every out. So
if he played in less games, he would might a
little bit more of a chance. But he plays every game.
He hits the top of the order. There's too many
at bats. I look, as long as he makes a
(39:05):
run for it, this is awesome. But four hundred it's
just not gonna happen.
Speaker 6 (39:09):
No.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
I mean, we celebrate it as it is, and we
five hit days. I mean, how many of those do
you have in a season. Let alone what he's done
in a month, And I mean that from the Major
League Baseball as a whole. It's like watching a complete game.
You gotta respect it when it's there. But look, he
gets hot for a while. The hard part is your
legs get heavy down the stretch too, which means you're
not legging out, and he hits, and maybe some of
(39:31):
the hitting you were able to do. When you're guessed
wrong on a pitch, you can't. You use your base
to muscle.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
It out, and you're skipping leg day. Apparently can't skip
leg day coming half next ever. Latest on a big

Speaker 4 (04:35):
So like Meagan, ever since Jeffrey Dean Morgan, ever since
he was killed off of Grey's Anatomy, he was spoiler.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I was just gonna start watching season one, episode one
of Gray's Anatomy.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Now, they really dragged his an Izzy storyline out a
little too long before she left.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But he's been on that you say left, okay, all right?
How many seasons now for Graising Anatomy? Like twenty oh okay,
kind of cheese me off those.
Speaker 4 (05:05):

I decided I'm gonna hunk her down and I'm gonna
watch it on a streaming service and I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Catch up ahead of the season. I'm gonna catch you. No, No,
I got ahead. She's got a very good mind. So,

Speaker 4 (05:20):
We do here with sports or whatever, where you compartmentalize
it and you can recall it, right, this storyline is.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
No, I get it, but you're gonna try to catch
up to twenty seasons of twenty episodes. But I was
working out and doing other things.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
I'd have it streaming in the background, and I finally
catch up and the season premiere comes this two years ago.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
She goes, oh, I'm not watching it anymore. Well, because
it took you so long to catch up. She was done. No, no, no, no,
because it was just no. But it was coming back.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
And then like she was done and she was ready,
and I'm like, all right, I caught up, so we
can watch the new season and talk about it together
and have this bonding moment.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
She said, beat it. I don't watch it anymore, man, jerk.
Now I feel you, though, because we did the same
thing with Supernatural, and it was we watched fifteen the
seasons of Supernatural. I thought watching Agents of Shield seven
seasons of Agents of Shield was a lot, but fifteen
seasons because every every season is twenty some on episodes,
and here's a bad guy vampire covin the zombie, here's
(06:15):
God and the Devil and death and all this, and
every week it was Dean and Sam and Baddie in
the week and I'm like, wow, twenty seasons, man, that
was yeah, but at least with Agents of Shield you
had Ming Ming Nah, I did, and we had twenty
fifth annivers sure sure, uh yeah yeah, And what's y No, no, no, no,
Henry Simmons was in it. And who else he hung
(06:38):
out with Mark Paul Gosler he did, Yeah, they were
They weren't partners in NYPD Blue. No, he was partners
with Metal Clan, who was also Shock from an Out.
And now we've come all the way back to sports.
They always say when you talk movies, bring it back
to sports. Just brought it back to eight man Out.
So Draymond Green is now going to be a free agent,
(06:59):
and we talked a few minutes ago about how look,
if you're the Warriors, I hope it's just fake interest
in yeah, we want to bring you back. Hey, we
really want you, so it doesn't look like we're kicking
a guy to the curb that helped us build a dynasty.
But you're just not good enough. I think you're doing
if the price is right, I just but if he's
opting out of a one year, thirty six million dollar deal,
(07:21):
he's hoping to do exactly what James Harden did, is
I want to get back now maybe a three year
ninety million dollar deal or like take less money for
one year, but I get more overall. And that's what
I'm hoping to do, because if I could do this
one year at thirty six million, but then what am
I gonna get after that? But if I'm out now,
I can get three years. That's what he's hoping to do.
(07:41):
And it's not that he doesn't have value. Draymond Green
has value, but he has value as an over the
top guy for an NBA title contender, a team that says,
you know, what we're missing is his attitude, his defensive
prowess and the intangibles he brings to the team. That's
what we need and that is value for this year
(08:01):
or next year. That's huge value. But for the Warriors,
it's dude, you can't build. You can't bring him back
and say the same three guys, we're gonna do it
when Klay Thompson is not the same guy and Draymond
Green is not the same guy. You're just not talented enough.
You got knocked out in the second round by the Lakers,
who are actually older than you are, and you think
you're gonna bring this, bring the three guys back, they're already.
(08:22):
We got to move on from Jordan Poole, who knows
about Jonathan Kaminga and all these guys you thought were great, Uh,
guess what not working. It's a reload on the fly.
It's very difficult. I get it because they meant a lot,
but you know, you have to make these sound decisions.
And for Mike Dunleavy Junior, who certainly worked with the
team and worked his way up and got the promotion,
he doesn't nearly have the the loyalty to Clay and
(08:47):
Steph and Draymond like Bob Myers did. So hopefully it's
easier to move on. Still, is it gonna be difficult?
But hey, if we made an offer, but we want
to bring you back, but hey, you get this offer
from the Knicks or the Celtics or the Grizzlies or
the Nuggets, whatever it's going to be, Hey, you should
probably take it because that's where he has value. But
coming back is a lynchpin for the word.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
No.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Warriors got to get They gotta dump everybody, and they
got to get better. They gotta reload on the fly
and not waste Steph who is still scoring thirty some
odd points a game with thirty four years old. Yeah,
it's the big curiosity to it is how much loyalty
and does the bridging out of Myers allow for a reset?
Obviously you're coordinating with Steph and Steve Kerr to try
(09:30):
to figure out what the next iteration is. Can remember
Steph and his exit was really pointed in is Hey,
this guy's gonna be a key pointing to Jordan Poole's locker.
And that's something done Levy talked about a little bit today. Hey,
he's under contract for four years. It's our guy. But
as we know, again if the price is right, anything
(09:50):
can be had and anything can happen in this marketplace
because as long as you have your coaches and star players, blessing,
but Clay is not the same guy in any way,
shape or form. Back to back nights playoff series, they
gave away two games to the Lakers, right, And that's
the thing, and that's the margin of error where we're
at in this across the NBA is they gave away
(10:14):
two games they should have won in the fourth quarter
because they didn't have enough size to get the key
rebound or to make a play and spread the offense.
Those things weren't there, which why porzingis showing up is
going to solve all of that. See what I did there,
I just put big weight on his shoulders to do that.
But with Klay Thompson, shot was off right.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
You can tell me it was Denver's big bodies and
stuff flying past him. His accuracy was terrible and he
can't create space for himself right, even the quick step
to try to get a better shooting lane, it's not
as fluid as it was. Is that coming back off
an injury? Is it still needing time?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Well? How much time do you need? And that's another,
you know, another year on the odometer as it flows.
With Jordan Poole, Is he ever gonna be a complete player? No,
but he's a good offensive player and the contract you
signed him to makes him gonna be He's gonna be
very difficult to move if you did decide to go
in that direction, right, So that that's part of the
process of all right, if he becomes your second unit,
(11:16):
second line score and this canna play together just fine.
But in terms of paying out Draymond and Claye to
top of market, contracts. You can't do it.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
No, it's kind of like, well, you're more bullish on
the Phoenix move, and obviously it's a great of an
incomplete because we don't know what the roster looks like.
But you're basically trying to do the same thing. All right,
we're gonna keep these guys who aren't elite scorers besides
Steph at a high rate and then build around it.
You just saw it didn't work. It didn't get you through.
(11:47):
And even if you say, well, with this and this,
we could have beaten we should have beaten the Lakers. Fine,
you're still getting drummed by the Nuggets. Right if you
had advanced, you're still gonna get beaten out, Like you
don't match up with that squad at all. So you
just don't need to do a lot of work and
reconfigure some of those salaries. So you make the best,
good faith, save face effort. But the reality is you're
(12:08):
hoping that the dollar amount is not enough but not insulting.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Where you utive because you and you also need the
team to look like, hey, I'm gonna go there and
they'll treat me right, And I'm like, boy, these guys
just won you know, you know, there's won five championships
and when it went bad, you'll cut those guys loose.
You're just kicking them to the curb. So you have
to do it the right way. But I also I
also see Draymond and Clay that understand that, and that
(12:34):
Clay is like, listen, if you don't, I can go
to the Lakers and I'd love to go there. I'd
love Hey, you know, where's a destination you'd like to
go to where you think for a couple of years
you could do it because there's no shame in doing that.
It's so I'm hoping that that's what it is. But
if like, if you just decide we're gonna bring we're
really gonna bring these guys back and give them all
kinds of money you can't don't give You don't give
people money for what they've already for services already night.
(12:55):
You know you can't.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
That's the one thing we always talking about, right and
every once in a while you do add that transcendent
superstar where you recognize what the end of the road
looks like for your squad and you over pay them
grossly for what they've done. See the final years of
the Kobe Bryant contracts. But outside of that, you know,
it's a it's a losing formula. And I did like
(13:16):
that there was a faux Draymond Green account that was
getting a bunch of folks earlier today.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Raymond Green account, it was Draymond not the real you
sure wasn't somebody it was Ramon. Okay, so kind of
going on a darn chef road. But the idea of
boy lebron can't wait to get to La to play
with you. Didn't you stay? We're getting pretty excited, is
that Draymond Green?
Speaker 6 (13:41):
Right?
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, Raymond Green? No, I said, did sound like you said?
Sound like you said dream? No, no, no, I said
Draymond Green. Again. Sounded like you had an m there
at the end. No, no, no, Draymond, I said Raymond Green. Again,
sounded like you said. The uh Tonight's show brought to

just play the Wild Wild last instead, Wow Wild, just
really quick, because you know it's on one of our
TV's now and it's holiday, we're a little loosen and
talking about stuff today. Full Metal Jacket is on. I
(17:06):
gotta say this, ever, the first half of Full Metal
Jacket is the best first half of any movie I've
ever seen.
Speaker 7 (17:12):
In my life.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Should we go live to it?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Janet's no, don't go live to it? Because what Private
Pile's gonna do? Pile? Poor Private and a good Run.
It's two movies, right, because it's completely no, completely different.
The first half of this movie is the best movie
I've ever seen. And the more times I see it,
the more times I can't believe Vincent and Afrio did
not win an Oscar for Private Pile. Every time he's
(17:35):
on the screen as the movie goes on, you're just
it's one of those where, oh, what's gonna happen, kind
of like when you watch The Boys right now in
Homelanders on the screen, You're like, Oh my god, what's
he gonna do? Oh my god, That's what it was
like seeing him. I can't believe he didn't win. But
it came out the year after Platoon, and Platoon had
won everything and they're like, oh, here's another war. We're
not gonna do it again for another war movie. So
barely won anything. But I'm telling you that this this movie,
(17:58):
first half best movie I've ever seen. Vince that Narfio
should have easily won, and as.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
You know, he was also he's had an amazing career,
but should have one here. He was great in the Cell.
One that I don't think gets mentioned to Jennifer Lopez.
Jennifer Na Vince Vaughan and uh, what's this guy who
was the Vince Taylor prou At Vince.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Yes, okay, very good, very very good movie going down.
He's got a good book as well, I mean some
some writings and scrawlings that he's done, so very accomplished.
And he's part of the Law and Order family, so
you know, I'm gonna celebrate his every celebration question.

weekend for the US m n T in soccer. Right
(18:54):
we beat Canada. Oh yeah, we beat the crap out
of Mexico and Mexico is so mad that they have
to stop the game because of the chant, you know,
all the crazy ass stuff. But the United States looks
as dominant as any time I have ever seen them.
But they fired their coach exactly right, Well, that's very well,
that's we got to get to Burholter. So they have
(19:16):
looked as dominant in these last couple of games, and
better than I've ever seen them, at a point where
not only can we do some damage, we should be
some of the big bullies on the block. All the
young players have come through, and they're all coming through now.
And for a team like Canada we've had trouble with
right beat the bit, it wasn't even close. Right, United
(19:37):
States got the two big goals. Geo Raina set them
both up, and we go on and win and it's
not even close. We beat Mexico and the gap between
the United States and Mexico has never been bigger.
Speaker 6 (19:48):
This is it.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
All the young players here, whether it's Polistic or rain
or anybody else, they're all here. And yet this is
dampened with the news that Greg Burholter is coming back
to be the USMNT coach, a guy who had trouble
scoring goals. His look. We talked about Burholter, he gets
out coached on game day plenty of times. He is
(20:10):
beholden to certain players and doesn't give opportunities to more
talented players at certain times. And that's a big thing
for me. It's not that he's a bad coach, but
you and I have talked about he's an A to
B coach and you can see in the big games
the United States isn't ready. That loss of the Netherlands
looked like a team that hadn't practiced. Why are you
not covering the back post?
Speaker 7 (20:29):
How?
Speaker 1 (20:29):
I can't believe. How do you not do these simple things?
But that's Burholter and it's really disappointing to see that.
Now we're going to go back to a guy who
wasn't good enough and we let his contract last at
the end of the year and six months go by
and they're playing great. No, let's go back to the guy.
It doesn't make sense. Now, what about Joe Rayner, right,
who now he's playing everybody should be blonde because he's great,
(20:50):
And now what's his pace going to be like because
his parents tried to get him fired from the USMNT. Right,
So that's really really difficult. Moved on months in theory
to rectify that lay those fears and part of it,
and we talked about it is, uh, you go back
to just the style of play and in terms of position,
(21:12):
Raina should have had a bigger role. I mean everybody
still knew that from the outside looking in. So it
was like, what's behind the scenes that it becomes a
personal thing and personal n datas get him fired. All
these accusations out in the press and everything else that
got ugly and hopefully, yeah, you were able to smooth
that over because right now he's your best player. I
(21:32):
love polistic, but rain is a different thing now saying
you're gonna be the big bullies and anything. No, no, no, no,
we gotta you know, crawl before we're walking out. We're
already a periphery time. Yeah yeah, no, I'll give you
the top fifteen. That's a lot of teams. Yeah, but
that way.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
We never do top fifteen rankings, Jason. Let's doing fantasy football.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
But you're talking about a sport where you talk about
the top sixty four teams in the world. For a
long time, we were in the bottom. Now are Perifrey
top ten, top fifteen team? In another year? Are we
a top ten team? Definitively maybe could be. I mean
polistic was our best player against Mexico? You had the
ball all that? I mean he was, you know, he
was basically the MVP of the run here and fantastic
(22:16):
even with Raina doing the setups and such. Got a
chance to watch a good chunk of it the last
couple of games. Curious about burr Halter and how much
of that is did you learn? What did you learn?
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Like that?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
That's the first question all this what did you learn
in the six months you weren't on the job. I'm
glad you asked that question because I'm gonna blow your
mind now for why they brought him back? Okay, and
this is where because I'm not excited about burr Halter
backs so we can now he can go back, so
we can not score goals? Great, that's awesome. Why bring
Burhlter back? Follow me on this.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
Hit me.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
So you've seen over the last few months the team
has played well. The young players have all come through.
And these are all young players that are his because
I gotta give him credit because he has brought these
young players along. This is on his watch, sure, so
they're all coming here they are now they're all playing well.
We've had a couple of different interim coaches. They've done
well while they're coaching in his place while we figure
it out. They can't get whoever they really want to
(23:11):
get for whatever reason, And so why go back to Burhalter?
All the next four years are gonna be so tough,
and no, he's gonna but is this a four year
job for him? Is this we're bringing bur aalter back
for four years or is this a team doing what
you see happen sometimes in sports, in football, Baseball, the NBA,
(23:37):
where a team brings a guy back or gives him
a second chance at a different job because maybe he
might turn out to be a good head coach, and
we want to be sure before we say we're done
with you. Right, You see it, and you see it
in the four major sports all the time. Here's a
coach they bring. Is a coach really good, like a
guy like Robert Salah? Hey, is he really good?
Speaker 7 (23:58):
Well?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
I don't know. He had a really rough rookie year.
Maybe the job is too big for him, but you
know what, he showed some glimpses he might be good.
So rather than cut bait, let's bring him back for
a second year and see if it's better. And the
second year is better, now you get in roll. So
that's what that's what I see the United States doing
with this, is that these are all Burholter's guys. I mean,
Rain is not a Baroltar guy, but but but all
(24:21):
these are Burholter's guys. Are we sure he's that bad?
We have four years to the World We have a
long time to go to the World Cup, right, we
have a long time to go to get there. Not
for we have left. We have three years to get
to the World Cup. We've seen that other other guys
have come in to coach this team. Can we give
him a year and see if he gets better, If
(24:43):
he improves and the team stays good and gets better,
and then maybe we have found our guy. Are we
absolutely sure that Burholter is no good? And I guarantee
you the answer was, uh, I I don't know. Are
we better? Well, we can't really get for whatever reason,
they couldn't get a guy. They couldn't get a high
(25:03):
profile guy they really wanted. Are they really sure that
Burholt is not any good? Could you do this for
a year and then revisit and go you know what,
not working. So for the next two years, we got
a new coach coming in with new things and new ideas,
and here's the players we understand. We can promote from within.
Whatever it is. You can bring either of the interims back.
They've they've done a good job. So that's kind of
how I see. It's why I don't think there's any
(25:24):
bad news for US Soccer now. It's not all here
comes Burrow because this is gonna be burhlter for now.
And if things get bad and they're suddenly not playing hard,
because that was a big hallmark of the team. As
talented as they are, some nights they show up. Sometimes
they know why they're not showing up against El Salvador.
How are we losing this game? How are we tying
this game? So if that happens, yeah, then you got
(25:45):
two years to figure it out. We don't have to
worry about qualifying. We don't have to worry about that.
That's out the window. If qualifying was a thing, maybe
be a different a different decision, but they don't have
to because we're hosts, so we just go right into
the World Cup. So with that, knowing on that that's
the case, then why not see and make sure he's
(26:05):
not the guy and if we're wrong, Hey, we have
our coach and we're getting ready. Maybe we're thinking, you know,
semis of the World Cup or you know, two games
out of the knockout round, and if we're and if
he's proved not okay, and then we know for a
fact this is as far as he could take the
team and we're moving on. That's kind of how I
see Berholta coming back. Yeah, I think there's a couple
of pieces to it.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Number one, not unprecedented for the US men's national team
to recycle a coach. Remember our guy Jurgen Klinsmann gone
comes back. In this case, you had the domestic violence
allegations that were made public. The dirty laundry was the
words that you saw in the phrase used in a
(26:47):
lot of articles talking about it, that it goes public.
And the rift with Raina and his family became a
big enough deal to where and perhaps time down in
distance right where the climate of the universe and particularly
the United States was in terms of a domestic violence chart,
(27:10):
You've got to separate from him, and they did you investigate?
Speaker 1 (27:13):
You see where you're at. See if there's some way
to bridge both that side of things in terms of
you know, coming to terms with that as being associated
with your coach. But the other the friction with Raino
one of your more promising players, but from a team perspective,
continuity in that he had worked to grow these players
(27:34):
and it is a young roster that you've brought them
maybe from point B, but can you eke a little
more out because you have a cycle now where you've
got a couple of years where you'll play some important matches,
but important with a lowercase I rather than the gravity
of Hey, the World Cup is upon us.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
So you see how the team gels. You see if
there's any more malcontentedness and where the effort is in
future friends, lee's and fixtures that you have coming up.
And if that's the case, then perhaps you're full ahead
as opposed to starting over with a new philosophy, a
new mix of players and responsibilities. So here you have
(28:15):
a bit of continuity, and I think for the United
States that probably sells more than anything, right, is that
you've got a guy that rain Is accepted, that you'd
seemingly gotten the best out of a lot of these
players and brought them up. So for the United States,
now you get to bridge and see if B two
(28:35):
C can happen under his watch, because really, it can't
get any worse, right, I mean, because you haven't hit
the pinnacle, right You're not at top of the mountain
the old hey, you know, the dynasty that falls apart
or the team that's right there and crumbles. You're still
on the cusp of that top ten as you said,
top ten, top fifteen.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
That's great. That means you're making it in bracketology and
you're you're in a top five seed. Great, that's still
not top of the mountain. So the the tumbling out
of there isn't going to be disastrous. But the potential
to maybe make the tweak or two to get you
to where you're competing for a World Cup title is there.
Speaker 6 (29:18):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Look, it's it's close as it's ever been. And I
if this is how the decision is made, I kind
of get it. I mean I disagree with it. I think, look,
there's a reason why you let it laps the first
time right there, Like you know, you know, you don't
go you don't go back to your exit and say
let's get married again. I mean that doesn't. It doesn't
happen again, and it does have a lot of success
when it actually happens. Does it really have a lot
(29:38):
of success? Yeah? But how successful is everything else?
Speaker 7 (29:42):
It did?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Not many people do that you have, but not many
people like each other that have been around each other
a long time. You know, I couldn't find anybody I
liked as much as you. So hey, let's give another show.
Sure we are, we're stuck. You know, we're stuck. So
we're gonna bring you back as head couch now, so
that I kind of get I kind of get it,
I kind of get right now, Brian Finley's gonna tell
us what's trending in the wide world?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
You think so leading look at that?
Speaker 1 (30:04):
What, of course is going to be the New York
Mets twenty eight to one win over the Houston Astros tonight.
Speaker 6 (30:09):
It wasn't twenty eight to one. That might be a
slight hyperbole, but eleven to one. Here's how that final
moment sounded.
Speaker 7 (30:16):
Hartwig delivers swinging a bouncing ball to third. It was left, baby,
he's up with a ghost. A second horse play put
it in the box. The New York Mets come in
to Houston, and clabber the defending world champion Astros.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
That would be eleven to won the final score. That
call courtesy of the New York Mets Radio Network. One
game is still going on and it's the Padres leading
the Giants in San Francisco four to two, bottom of
the seventh fair. Juan Soto has a pair of solo
home runs as far as some of the other other finals.
To mention here, Alex Ferdugo four RBI for the Red
Sox as they tear into the Twins nine to three.
(30:52):
The Brewers lost nine to one to the Diamondbacks, and
because of Cincinnati and the Red's ninth straight win, which
came tonight five to four again against the Rockies. Since
he's in first in the end of Central, they have
not done that at this stage of the season since
twenty twelve. That seems like something that the Mets would
be dealing with. Meanwhile, the Rangers five to two they
(31:12):
overcome Mike Harmon's White Sox. That's the final score.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
We also saw the.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
Cubs rip into the Pirates eight to nothing, the Marlins
with an eleven to nothing thrashing of the Blue Jays
Tiger six, the Royals four Cardinals overcome the Nationals eight
to six. Paul Goldschmid had that game defining home run
in the six the go ahead blast from him. And
in college we had in Omaha the College World Series.
(31:39):
Two games today, including the late one which saw a
come from behind win for wake Forest. It was tied
to to with LSU a score a run in the
eighth and three to two wake Forest winners against LSU,
meaning because LSU lost, they're gonna have to take on
Tennessee after the Vauls an elimination game earlier today, six
to four winners against the Stanford Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
How many? How many points for Tim Duncan today for
wake Forest. Let's see, did you know that he was
a he was going the route of swimming for this bird? No,
did you know that he was going the route of
being a swimmer? And then a hurricane came in the
Caribbean and he was discovered by a wake Forest scout
who was vacationing there on an island. I did not
know that. Yeah, it sounded like the beginning of the
(32:22):
song from Hamilton. I was just thinking a hurricane.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
Yeah, he was supposed to be a competitive swimmer.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Well, when you're six eleven. You start out with a
big advantage over everybody else.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
Yes, by the way, the best nineties show, if you're
gonna ask me, I forgot the name of the show.
It was on Oxygen and.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
The whole You tell me what show was the best?
You can't even say the name.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Well, I know the host Sujo Hanson, but it was
on Oxygen.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
You don't even know the name of the show. How
can you say it's the best show? And Phil saw
it all? Well, you know, my favorite movie of all
time is that? It's that one I get. I can't
remember with that guy? What's that guy's name?
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Do you know what show I'm talking about?
Speaker 1 (32:58):
No, I don't know. You don't, No, a show that
was on the Oxygen Now, how dare you you know?
Speaker 3 (33:04):
It might?
Speaker 6 (33:04):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:04):
I had to look it up.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
Yes, like.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
A show that was on Oxygen.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Oh, it's amazing. I'll send you.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
I didn't even know what the hell you talk I
can't even read. I'm fifty two. I can't see your
computer from that far away. What's the name of the show?
It's called what? Sue Johansson Canadian nurse? Hang on, she's
ninety three. She just show called wait then, yeah, yes,
how can you tell me that's the best show? Because
(33:37):
he wanted to giggle like he was twelve.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Yeah, I mean how you get to learn from someone?
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Did you stay up late at night, like pretend that
the TV was on? You ever call in your mom
said I am Brian, time to go to bed. Okay, Mom,
I'm going to bed. I'm gonna watch this. I had
to learn somehow. My parents didn't share any of that
with me.
Speaker 6 (33:55):
We were very conservative as far as not telling those
kind of things to each other. So I had to
go out and find one in a place where I
could learn, and.
Speaker 7 (34:03):
That was it.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
That's like when you would listen to a show late
at night there was a calling show that was about
sex or some kind of tough topic to talk, yeah,
and you would hear the person calling. They would go, Hi,
this is Jim. I'm calling from Long Island. Jim. You
gotta speak up. Jim. Hey, can we call your mommy
confirm this?
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Sorry, I'm uh yeah, I'm talking a little bit louder, No, Jim,
we can't really hear you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know
the guy's calling from his base. Mike, I don't win
up anybody's crank you up as far as we can.
You're gonna have to speak louder.
Speaker 6 (34:34):
So.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
I'm having problems with this girl and sex. I got
issues and no, no, it's always Hey, this is Joe.
I'm calling from Saskatchewan and I have a question.
Speaker 7 (34:44):

Speaker 4 (35:31):
No?
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Think more patriotic.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Flags of Our Father.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
That's a good movie. This is American gladiators.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
This is American glass. All right, all right, very good us.
He cast American gladiators while Fenlu was watching what he
was doing late night, I was watching competition sport pugilist.
I want to take you out a dinner and then
go back to my apartment to watch kung Fu. You
(36:03):
here like kung fu? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I get
let's go. I love kung fu. Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
Uh that's kind of you. Do you have a kung
fu grip. I'm just not gonna go into work anymore.
So you're quitting. No, I'm just not gonna go.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Today in Major League Baseball, another amazing day for a
guy who was attempting absolute baseball history. You're gonna think
it's this headline from a day ago, but oh no, no,
somebody went five for five again.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
One and two, and this time he's gonna drive it
around maybe two.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
Here comes Bernie. He'll score five for.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Five to.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
Two.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Three. We can't have friends. That's out to four hundred.
Uh Luisa Raya is another five for five day. His
back average was down a three seventy eight. Fron oh
for fifteen, slepting like okay. That was a great run
at four hundred, he had a good run. Now another
five hit game. This is his third this month, and
now he is hitting an even four hundred for the
(37:13):
Marlins as he is now the latest in a season
with a four hundred batting average since no More Garciapara
in two thousand with the Red Sox when he's hitting
four hundred after ninety one games. Seventy games he was
in that season, Remember he was good nor he had
a good run. It was good. He just didn't men.
(37:35):
It had a very high peak, like very fast, and
then he crashed down. He's almost halfway through the season,
seventy three games at four hundred. How about this, here's
a stat that was thrown up. Yeah, I know, one
hundred and two hits the season.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
Yankees have ninety six hits as a team from guys
not named Judge.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Think about that, ninety six hits as a team. So
outside of the injured Aaron Judge, Mike Judge has a
few hits. Judge, Reinhold has a few hits. Look, this
is an awesome story and a guy that can get
hits in bunches like this, is he gonna hit four hundred? No,
it's just too hard to do it. It's too hard
(38:21):
to do. It's two for five every day. You have
a one for four day the net. You have two
one for four days in a row. You need six
hits in your next two games. Right, it's just too
hard to do. But can he make a run at
this because he has bunches and bunches where we're talking
about post All Star break, he's hitting four hundred. Yeah,
you can stay hot for that long. You can do it. Look,
we watched George Brett hit three ninety back in nineteen eighty,
(38:44):
but he only played in one hundred and eighteen games.
The more games you play, the harder it is because
you can only improve your average by so much and
you lose so much off it with every out. So
if he played in less games, he would might a
little bit more of a chance. But he plays every game.
He hits the top of the order. There's too many
at bats. I look, as long as he makes a
(39:05):
run for it, this is awesome. But four hundred it's
just not gonna happen.
Speaker 6 (39:09):
No.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
I mean, we celebrate it as it is, and we
five hit days. I mean, how many of those do
you have in a season. Let alone what he's done
in a month, And I mean that from the Major
League Baseball as a whole. It's like watching a complete game.
You gotta respect it when it's there. But look, he
gets hot for a while. The hard part is your
legs get heavy down the stretch too, which means you're
not legging out, and he hits, and maybe some of
(39:31):
the hitting you were able to do. When you're guessed
wrong on a pitch, you can't. You use your base
to muscle.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
It out, and you're skipping leg day. Apparently can't skip
leg day coming half next ever. Latest on a big
NBA trade from the tirec dot Com Studios Fox
