(00:50):
As you heard Steve de Seger say, everything is over
in MLB tonight and oh boy, are things getting tight
the wildcard race in the America League. The Mariners a
game and a half behind the Astros. However, there are
only two games back of the Rangers. Yeah, who are
(01:12):
feeling it right now? We just need to win one
more game. All this is all kinds of craziness going
into the last couple of games, and my Mariners, Mike Harmon,
who I said, we're going to the World Series. I
am living and dying with everything they do because I
want that preseason prediction to come true.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, you also you root for a good story, you
root for new teams to be involved. If you're Frostburg
and well anybody that really loves the game of baseball,
you're kind of rooting against the Astros, especially not a
Dusty Banks. Yeah, now they're Dusty. Baker's walking out with
that coat that is long enough to where it looks
(01:49):
like Darth Vader's cape as he goes.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
To the mound.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Like, I mean, there's all of that.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Yeah, Meanwhile, nothing, I laughed out of it because you said,
vomit Astros.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
It's funny. If I ever don't give you the reaction
you want, just play that. That's all I can just
play that. Meanwhile, in the National League, and this gets
to a bigger point here, the Diamondbacks, Marlins, Reds and
Cubs all within two games in the lost column of
each other. I say lost column because you know, the
(02:25):
Marlins may have to play that game against the Mets
on Monday, but the Cubs losing tonight. They have lost
four in a row. They are absolutely gacking this away.
So it's really just an outshy chance for them Reds.
Even though they won tonight, they have to hope that
the Marlins wind up hitting the skids the last couple
of games. It looks like the Marlins, Hey, they might
not even have to play that game on Monday the
(02:47):
way things are going. But the one thing the Marlins
did tonight was they eliminated the Padres from playoff contention. Right,
the Padres have been hot the last few weeks. How
are they still in it? Go mathematically into the last
week of the regular season last weekend? How they got
knocked out tonight? They won tonight. Their record is eighty
and eighty, but they're knocked out. And I gotta be honest,
(03:10):
I got no dog in the fight for San Diego,
for the Padres, you know, and everything. I didn't think anything. Oh,
you know, Padres look underachieving team. But when they got
eliminated tonight, I said, you know, I was kind of
glad because the Padres and the Mets are the same
and they both did the same thing. They went out
and spent a ton of money on a bunch of
guys and threw them out there and said this is
(03:30):
gonna work. Meanwhile, other teams have decided to adopt strategies like, well,
maybe with the rule change, we need to make sure
our team is a little faster because we're gonna steal
more bases. Maybe you've got to make sure that we
have guys can hit when there's no shift, they're gonna
be able to do it. You know, all these different
changes that came into Major League Baseball this year, we
got to make sure we're adapting to them. And the
(03:51):
Mets and the Padres are two teams that spent so
much money, they're exactly the same. I would have been
really mad if the Pods figured it out and got
in the playoffs and the Mets we did the same thing,
have been out of it since the end of July.
I'd have been really pissed. Mike so kind of the
fact that the Padres are out, I feel good. I'm like, okay, good,
it's good that they're out. I feel good they're out
(04:12):
because I want them sitting right next to me. Because
the Padres success meant the Mets would have been even
bigger failure than they were.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
No that's just it, right, Misery loves company. I was
actually having this chat earlier with some of our colleagues,
you know, just talking about our teams already being abysmal
in the NFL season. I was like, who's your white
who's your baseball team? And I just laughed, like Chicago
South Side And they're like, wow, now they didn't gag
(04:40):
it away, like it looks like the Cubs did. But
you know, for the White Sox it has been a
dismal season. But for you, looking at the way the
Mets season, all that hope, all that anticipation, all that
took a giant Galuly like blow to your leg when
Timmy L. Trumpet went down all those months ago. I mean,
(05:01):
think about how long ago that was.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That was a lot time.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
We've aged rapidly since that World Baseball Classic debacle, and
you've struggled through this whole season. And then you look
at the Padres. They've had a couple of nice streaks.
The numbers are gonna look nice for some of the players. Right, oh,
look what he did. It's like no, no, no, no, no,
don't go to the aggregate. That's what I always hate.
(05:24):
The aggregate doesn't matter. You can pile up some statistics
in some really bad series where you just kind of
go nuts, and we'd see that in the NFL all
the time. It's like, well, that got rushed for twelve
hundred yards and eight touchdowns. Like, yeah, five hundred yards
and five of those touchdowns came in three games.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
He was invisible.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
It couldn't fall.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Forward the rest of the year.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
It all counts just the same. I get it in
terms of where they rank at season's end, But did
it help you win?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Probably not.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Likewise, a lot of stats for the Mets and for
the Padres in the same vein, so I get it.
You're feeling pretty good, except they got to be relevant
a little.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Bit longer for you. It's just a all right, what's
the divience? They were really relevant. They were out of
it for a long time, and they were like, hey,
we're not technically eliminated. That's kind of what the Padres were.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, but they still had a pulse.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
You want to stat real fast before we move on
to we love stats here, you know, here's you know,
we don't do a lot of them, but this is
just one that makes you go, wow. The Padres are
eighty and eighty. They're eliminated from playoff contention. They have
a plus ninety eight run differentially, Okay, plus ninety eight
run differential, all right, just to put that in perspective,
(06:37):
teams with plus one hundred run differential, they're basically all
in the playoffs. Padres are plus ninety eight. The Marlins
are minus fifty seven. It's a more differential a year ago,
and they're likely getting into the playoffs. You're talking about
you're talking about the difference in the standings of four games, Okay,
(06:58):
four games, and the Padres have outscored the Marlins in
run differential by one hundred and fifty runs, and somehow
they are four games back of them unless Snow was
on the mound. I mean, and you know he's gonna
leave next to good Luck because he said not in
the contract here anymore good Luck, Blake Snow. I mean,
that just doesn't make any sense. How your minus fifty
(07:20):
seven you get in your plus ninety eight year eliminated.
I really it's oh man.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
It's called the effect.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Just it's all his fault. It's a's fault. It's all
I mean the Marlins. That look, the Marlins have scored
almost one hundred runs less than the Padres and they've
allowed fifty runs more.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Jason, just remember they get to play the Mets eighteen.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
But the men know the Mets are better again. Mets
are like not look up the record of the Mets
against the Marlins to record three.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I think it's nine and three, right, you play one
hundred and sixty two. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
That that run differential is just absolutely bananas. I mean,
I really really well.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
I mean, I mean, what are TV eras. I haven't
looked at those in a while this year, right, I mean,
if we go if you're outscoring teams, because again it
goes back to blowouts, right like, for for the rest.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Of the season.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
The Dolphins stuff is gonna be skewed. They've got two
great games already. Don't get me wrong, but when you
hang seventy on somebody, you can have a couple of
duns and still look like you're scoring thirty A game.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Man exit out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. The
Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon, live
from the Tirack dot Com Studios. Now, I'm pretty sure
Aaron Rodgers listens to the show, right, it was early.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
I respected don't say he does.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I'm pretty sure he does. I'm pretty sure he does.
He's been here in Malibu and rehabbing with his achilles injury.
And what did we say Monday Tuesday this week when
Aaron Rodgers spoke about the Jets and how they need
to grow up a little bit on offense, have to
stop causing scenes on the sideline, which they did Sunday
when they lost to the Patriots, and all the Jets
(09:10):
said was, yes, he's right, He's right. Look, Rogers is
as much of a coach as he is a player.
Robert Sala even said it. And this is why we
talk about Aaron Rodgers' future NFL head coach. He's going
to do it differently than anybody's ever seen. Is going
to turn the NFL on it's ear.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
But on Monday and Tuesday, we said, you know what's great, Hey,
get your ass to New York. Okay, the team needs
you Obviously, what you say they take into account. They
take into account you saying it. It's like the coach
says it. Maybe it's even bigger than the coach saying it,
because they believe the cachet that you have over the
cachet that Robert Sala has. So you know what, I know,
(09:59):
you're here in and you're rich. But it's time for
you to get on a plane and get to New
York and be with the Jets. Just your presence, just
Aaron Rodgers' presence on the sideline is going to help.
His presence will help calm Zach Wilson. It may not
make him a better quarterback, but it will calm the
Jets down and they won't have to be a team
that is fighting with each other tooth and nail after
every incomplete pass. Because right now it looks like things
(10:21):
are gonna just explode and they're gonna get worse before
they get better. They'll lose to the Chiefs forty to ten,
and suddenly it's gonna be the seasons over. Rogers has
to get to New York. What do we see today
from any insiders, Hey looks like Aaron Rodgers is gonna
be going to the Jets game on Sunday. All right,
about time. I've done my job. Now the Jets gotta
do theirs on Sunday. I got Aaron Rodgers to the Jets.
(10:42):
I got Aaron Rodgers to New York and now or
maybe Taylor Swifted. Okay, so Taylor Swift and I got
Aaron Rodgers to New York. Now the Jets got to
do their part on Sunday. Yeah, I think you.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Know, he teased a little bit on McAfee, and everybody
just assumed he was giving the nod and the wink
over to Taylor. Swift said quote, you never know who
you're going to see at the game, And you and
I had talked about it, and I was convinced he
was as much teasing his appearance to show up to
be that guy, to be that emotional leader, or to
just go and gawk at Taylor Swift and whichever friends
(11:16):
show up. Maybe Selena Gomez shows up with her. I
don't know, I ever can't tell. It's me just kind
of projecting and hoping, fellas, But you know, just the
idea of all right, you said it, you put it
out there and be about it right the old you know,
You can talk about it, you can sit on your couch,
(11:36):
but at some point you got to be back in
that locker room.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
It can't be zoom calls.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
It can't be Hey, I texted, you know, texted Zach
to tell him I still believe in him even with
all that. No, no, you can't do any of that crap.
You got to get back and be there and be
the guy on the sideline in the locker room. And look,
get your sideline pass. I don't know if you can
become an ad you know, adjunk kind of professor, slash
(12:03):
coach or what the rules are in terms of hanging
out and having a headset on and being part of
the action. But don't tell me for a second. They're
not looking into ways to get him involved and for him. Look,
it's image rehabilitation on a whole other level.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Now, Jason.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
We talked about it doing hard knocks, We talked about it,
all of these different things. Look how active I am,
Look how much I love these young guys. I've got handshakes,
They're giving me thirty thousand dollars necklaces. I'm the greatest
tourist you've ever seen in this area. It's all fine
and good, and now it's time to really be about
it in season. And if he can lead Zach Wilson
(12:41):
back to mediocrity or something resembling mediocrity and you can
steal a game or two with this defense, Yeah, you're
not doing it this week, but if you can do
it in the future, then then yeah, I mean, how
much better does it make him look? Because it starts
to erase everything that you'd heard about him or had
(13:02):
been whispered about him for year. It doesn't mean that
it was true, but what happens perception becomes reality. You're
away from the team, you're doing your ayahuasca, you know,
walk through the jungle with Miles Teller and all this
other stuff dark and darkness, room retreats and everything else
that you can push some of that away to show
you still care about your career and what this team
(13:24):
is gonna do.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Look at it.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
You win, you end up winning. You get Taylor Swift,
friendship bracelets and Aaron Rodgers. Now I'm gonna get stars,
Mike Jets win thirty eight three.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
There you go, that's.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
What's gonna thirty eight Which which Earth have you transported to?
In the office? Cinematic universe.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's the last game Taylor Swift will ever attend in
any sporting event ever.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
Yeah, but it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Well, you know, she's back on tour on the eighteenth,
so she's got a couple couple of weeks left to do.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
No, her eyes might not work after watching the Jets, Mike,
what happened?
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Her stage shows much different. She doesn't move around as much. Well, listen,
you know I love Travis Kelsey. I went to go
see the Chiefs play the Bears and then the Jets. Okay,
I had to fly to Kansas City for one of
those games. All Right, this is love everybody. She's recognizing
what NFL fans have had to do for a long time.
We celebrate off to seventy two, but they ain't all
(14:23):
created equal.

Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with My Best Friend
by Carmon live from the ti iraq dot Com Studios.
Big Saturday in College Football Colorado and USC about to
kick off in about eight minutes from now. Big Noon
Kickoff that happens really early. Lots of big time title
contenders hitting the road this week. Maybe Duke stays undefeated,
(14:55):
maybe Kansas Day is undefeated. We're looking to Kansas and
Duke at the national championship in there in football. Think
about that, Kansas and Duke, Kansas Duke Ucla. Can we say,
can we get four? Because we go all the accs,
I's like, oh well, Syracuse in North Carolina. No, no,
no one of them's gotta lose. We got Duke, we
(15:15):
got Kansas. Now we can work that out with us
now on the hotline. No one better to break down
the action coming up this weekend than long time Vegas insider.
Check out his bet the Board podcast. Former odds maker
at Caesar's Palace, now our insider here with us at
Fox Sports Radio. He is on Twitter at Todd Furman,
the aforementioned Todd Ferman. What's happening, Bud?
Speaker 6 (15:38):
You know, these segments, guys, used to be a lot
more fun when you both had football teams that root
for that at least showed a little bit of fight.
They could be competitive on Sundays. Now it's not even fun.
It's like picking on the four foot seven guy's gonna
get drafted last at recess, and you know, no matter
how things go, it's not going to end well for him.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Can I bet the over under on Taylor Swift?
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Look in the Booths.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
I mean there's a distinct possibility she may complete as
many passes on Sunday as Zach Wilson while leading the
Jets offense.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Wow, see how quickly we got there. I mean, look,
the Bears are the Bears. I mean, look, Taylor Swift
doing charity work, showing up for a Bears game followed
by a Jets game. So I don't know what the
tax right off and the implications are there Todd, but
certainly a lot of economic impact. Chiefs generally has big favorites.
(16:30):
We don't get too excited a little about them. How
big do they would you lay in this one?
Speaker 6 (16:36):
I mean, look, it's two in his bound. So to
speak for Travis Kelsey that these are the two games
that if Taylor Swift's gonna show up, she gets to
watch two teams that really struggle to defend the tight end,
and Travis can be poised to have a big day.
I imagine this thing is over by the time they
actually have to step up in class and take on
the Miami Dolphins on foreign soil in early November. But
when you look at the game Sunday night, we've actually
(16:58):
seen professional money come in on the Jets. Again, it's
a thought process that when you look at a total
this low and the forty one and a half forty
two range, with a number that was hovering right around
double digits, that the Jets defense can do enough to
keep this game competitive. Kansas City's offense hasn't fired on
all cylinders yet this season. I just don't know what
it's going to take for them to get outside this number,
(17:18):
because when you look at the Jets, it feels like
ten to thirteen points might be the most they're able
to put on the scoreboard.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Now, wait a minute, ten to thirty. What if Taylor
Swift is playing quarterback.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
I mean, look, unless you can run the option, I'm
not quite sure how this is going to work out.
Maybe this is a brief saw Michael Carter game and
you get Dalvin Cook involved and you just run the football.
Fifty two out of the fifty five offensive plays you
guys will have on Sunday, All right, I like the.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Way you think.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Let's see speaking of over under over under for number
of times Taylor Swift is shown on television.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Oh, I mean, here's the thing that you actually have
to handicap the game because if it's a blowout at halftime,
that number goes up substantially. But if the Jets are
within one, she's not going to get shown nearly as
many times. So if we're using it like a Super
Bowl prop from the moment the game kicks off until
it goes final, I'll set the over under of camera
(18:10):
shots if we get a Taylor Swift at five and
a half.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
All right, So you mentioned the Bears in terms of
talking about how badly our team sucked Todd Denver three
and a half or three, depending where you're looking on
the road at Chicago. For the Bears, they got the
gift that until Claypool opened his trap today, it had
been a pretty quiet week, a lot of excuse making,
but people were more concerned about the Kelsey Swift relationship
(18:37):
with Jared Payton getting that video than actually playing football,
and under on this one is all the way up
at forty seven, which just seems odd.
Speaker 6 (18:46):
I mean, look, the Bears may be terrible, but the
Bears aren't the team in this matchup. They gave up
seventy points last week, so it's the first time the
Bears can go into a game on Sunday and hold
their head up high compared to the opponent. The problem
for the Bears is they have nobody that's capable of
playing in the defensive backfield. I mean, you look at
a Jackson, he's out, Jalen Johnson ruled out. You have
a couple of players that are on ir and Josh
(19:08):
Blackwell and such. So this is a game where Russell
Wilson is going to be able to hunt a deep
ball and I think he's going to have some success. Meanwhile,
for justin Field, if he can't get right against the
Denver's Broncos defense, that's really lacking an identity right now.
It's an even bigger problem that it looks on the surface.
This game has been interesting because you have seen some
over money come in. The total now out to forty
seven from where it opened at forty four and a
(19:29):
half forty five, and every time the number does get
to three and a half, there is an appetite to
back the home underdog here from three and a half
down to three. So that's about the extent of the
information I can offer up. It will not get my
money side or.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Total Todd ferman our guesty are insider from Vegas. All right,
let's look at some action tomorrow. Obviously the big noon kickoff.
You have Colorado getting twenty one against USC. We watched
Colorado last week at boat Race by Oregon. USC's got
a great offense, their defense is not great. Replay from
(20:02):
last week and Colorado keep it closed. What do you
think on this one?
Speaker 6 (20:05):
You know, I think Colorado will be better, But this
is the first time, maybe all season for the Buffs
that this number is a fair reflection of where their
power rating would have been had this game taken place
way back in week one, because when you looked at
some of the summer numbers and the look ahead prices,
USC was projected to be a three touchdown favorite, and
that's exactly where we are now. The problem for Colorado,
for as poorly as they played last week against Oregon,
(20:27):
USC looked like it was a glorified scrimmage. For their
trip down to ten p against Arizona State, I think
they'll be much more buttoned up. And while you do
worry about USC defensively, I'm not sure Colorado can get
a stop in the first half. So if you're looking
at this game and you believe that the Trojans defense
will show up, I think it's a layot or don't
play a type scenario, especially in the first thirty minutes,
(20:47):
but would not shock me at all. As Colorado's hanging around,
They're down twenty eight to thirty one points and they
find a way to sneak in the back door. So
I don't see a whole lot in the way of
betting value in this game, the same way I did
last Friday against Oregon.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
So last week we watched the Ohio State Notre Dame
game come down to the final snap. Notre Dame now
on the road against the Darlings. I can never say
that with Duke basketball, of course, but for football purposes,
it's fun to have somebody else up there. But a
smallish five and a half point line has the luster
come off of the Irish even with just that narrow loss.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
I think the big question for the Irish is what
will their focus look like if this is a team
that's fully entrenched and engage in the wake of that
gut wrenching loss in South Bend last week against Ohio State.
Notre Dame has the players and the capabilities to create
a little bit of separation. The problem for the Irish
right now is that they didn't have an overly skilled
receiving room to begin with, and now it's depleted a
little bit by injuries. But this feels like it could
(21:43):
be an Audric estimate game. I really think he goes
over the century mark. And when we look at Duke,
they've exceeded expectations early on in the season. The secondary
has been outstanding, but you look at the strength of
schedule that they faced and it hasn't exactly been teams
that are capable of putting stress on them, at least
through the air. Notre Dame isn't going to necessarily fit
that bill by any stretch of the imagination. But Duke
(22:04):
is in the middle of the pack against the run,
and I think Notre Dame can have some success. So
I actually think game day, being in Durham for the
first time in an eternity, can work against Duke. For me,
it's favorite or pass. But again it's another game that
I think the number is relatively fair. Watch a couple
drives and if you have access to live betting, you
may have an opportunity to bet the Irish early.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
All right, Todd penn Stake's playing Northwestern. They practiced all
week with no music to get ready for the quiet.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
Incredible, incredible for James Franklin. As much as I don't
like some of his antics, his comments were outstanding, talking
about external and internal motivation.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Give me the over under for the decibel level at
Northwestern four.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Wow, I mean it's an eleven.
Speaker 6 (22:43):
It's an eleven central kick because I think the better
question is how many Northwestern fans will actually show up
and be there by kickoff? And the answer maybe thirty
seven As they're sitting in the parking lot trying to
deal at easy seven, trying to deal with traffic on
the Edens. It's not the easiest place to get to
on Lake Michigan on a Saturday early in the day,
but it will no doubt be a sleepy environment. Well, look, Smith,
(23:04):
we can't sell Northwestern short. They are fresh off of
a ridiculous comeback last week against the row Row Row
your boat gently down the stream Minnesota Golden Gophers. I
didn't know Northwestern could score twenty one points in a
game let alone a race a three touchdown deficit. So
when I look at this game, I actually think the underdog.
There's a little bit of life here, especially around four touchdowns.
(23:24):
But again, there are better things to do early on
a Saturday than waste your time watching this, even for
prominent alums of both of these fine, upstanding academic institutions.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Yeah, even if you don't want to watch it, plus
twenty six and a half at home, what do you think?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
I mean? The bottom line is here harm you don't
have to watch early on in this game. You flip
on in the fourth quarter and you hope that Bryant
can lead you guys into the through the back door
if it's a ugly, ugly activity down there in Evanston.

(00:50):
As you heard Steve de Seger say, everything is over
in MLB tonight and oh boy, are things getting tight
the wildcard race in the America League. The Mariners a
game and a half behind the Astros. However, there are
only two games back of the Rangers. Yeah, who are
(01:12):
feeling it right now? We just need to win one
more game. All this is all kinds of craziness going
into the last couple of games, and my Mariners, Mike Harmon,
who I said, we're going to the World Series. I
am living and dying with everything they do because I
want that preseason prediction to come true.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, you also you root for a good story, you
root for new teams to be involved. If you're Frostburg
and well anybody that really loves the game of baseball,
you're kind of rooting against the Astros, especially not a
Dusty Banks. Yeah, now they're Dusty. Baker's walking out with
that coat that is long enough to where it looks
(01:49):
like Darth Vader's cape as he goes.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
To the mound.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Like, I mean, there's all of that.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Yeah, Meanwhile, nothing, I laughed out of it because you said,
vomit Astros.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
It's funny. If I ever don't give you the reaction
you want, just play that. That's all I can just
play that. Meanwhile, in the National League, and this gets
to a bigger point here, the Diamondbacks, Marlins, Reds and
Cubs all within two games in the lost column of
each other. I say lost column because you know, the
(02:25):
Marlins may have to play that game against the Mets
on Monday, but the Cubs losing tonight. They have lost
four in a row. They are absolutely gacking this away.
So it's really just an outshy chance for them Reds.
Even though they won tonight, they have to hope that
the Marlins wind up hitting the skids the last couple
of games. It looks like the Marlins, Hey, they might
not even have to play that game on Monday the
(02:47):
way things are going. But the one thing the Marlins
did tonight was they eliminated the Padres from playoff contention. Right,
the Padres have been hot the last few weeks. How
are they still in it? Go mathematically into the last
week of the regular season last weekend? How they got
knocked out tonight? They won tonight. Their record is eighty
and eighty, but they're knocked out. And I gotta be honest,
(03:10):
I got no dog in the fight for San Diego,
for the Padres, you know, and everything. I didn't think anything. Oh,
you know, Padres look underachieving team. But when they got
eliminated tonight, I said, you know, I was kind of
glad because the Padres and the Mets are the same
and they both did the same thing. They went out
and spent a ton of money on a bunch of
guys and threw them out there and said this is
(03:30):
gonna work. Meanwhile, other teams have decided to adopt strategies like, well,
maybe with the rule change, we need to make sure
our team is a little faster because we're gonna steal
more bases. Maybe you've got to make sure that we
have guys can hit when there's no shift, they're gonna
be able to do it. You know, all these different
changes that came into Major League Baseball this year, we
got to make sure we're adapting to them. And the
(03:51):
Mets and the Padres are two teams that spent so
much money, they're exactly the same. I would have been
really mad if the Pods figured it out and got
in the playoffs and the Mets we did the same thing,
have been out of it since the end of July.
I'd have been really pissed. Mike so kind of the
fact that the Padres are out, I feel good. I'm like, okay, good,
it's good that they're out. I feel good they're out
(04:12):
because I want them sitting right next to me. Because
the Padres success meant the Mets would have been even
bigger failure than they were.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
No that's just it, right, Misery loves company. I was
actually having this chat earlier with some of our colleagues,
you know, just talking about our teams already being abysmal
in the NFL season. I was like, who's your white
who's your baseball team? And I just laughed, like Chicago
South Side And they're like, wow, now they didn't gag
(04:40):
it away, like it looks like the Cubs did. But
you know, for the White Sox it has been a
dismal season. But for you, looking at the way the
Mets season, all that hope, all that anticipation, all that
took a giant Galuly like blow to your leg when
Timmy L. Trumpet went down all those months ago. I mean,
(05:01):
think about how long ago that was.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That was a lot time.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
We've aged rapidly since that World Baseball Classic debacle, and
you've struggled through this whole season. And then you look
at the Padres. They've had a couple of nice streaks.
The numbers are gonna look nice for some of the players. Right, oh,
look what he did. It's like no, no, no, no, no,
don't go to the aggregate. That's what I always hate.
(05:24):
The aggregate doesn't matter. You can pile up some statistics
in some really bad series where you just kind of
go nuts, and we'd see that in the NFL all
the time. It's like, well, that got rushed for twelve
hundred yards and eight touchdowns. Like, yeah, five hundred yards
and five of those touchdowns came in three games.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
He was invisible.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
It couldn't fall.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Forward the rest of the year.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
It all counts just the same. I get it in
terms of where they rank at season's end, But did
it help you win?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Probably not.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Likewise, a lot of stats for the Mets and for
the Padres in the same vein, so I get it.
You're feeling pretty good, except they got to be relevant
a little.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Bit longer for you. It's just a all right, what's
the divience? They were really relevant. They were out of
it for a long time, and they were like, hey,
we're not technically eliminated. That's kind of what the Padres were.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, but they still had a pulse.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
You want to stat real fast before we move on
to we love stats here, you know, here's you know,
we don't do a lot of them, but this is
just one that makes you go, wow. The Padres are
eighty and eighty. They're eliminated from playoff contention. They have
a plus ninety eight run differentially, Okay, plus ninety eight
run differential, all right, just to put that in perspective,
(06:37):
teams with plus one hundred run differential, they're basically all
in the playoffs. Padres are plus ninety eight. The Marlins
are minus fifty seven. It's a more differential a year ago,
and they're likely getting into the playoffs. You're talking about
you're talking about the difference in the standings of four games, Okay,
(06:58):
four games, and the Padres have outscored the Marlins in
run differential by one hundred and fifty runs, and somehow
they are four games back of them unless Snow was
on the mound. I mean, and you know he's gonna
leave next to good Luck because he said not in
the contract here anymore good Luck, Blake Snow. I mean,
that just doesn't make any sense. How your minus fifty
(07:20):
seven you get in your plus ninety eight year eliminated.
I really it's oh man.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
It's called the effect.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Just it's all his fault. It's a's fault. It's all
I mean the Marlins. That look, the Marlins have scored
almost one hundred runs less than the Padres and they've
allowed fifty runs more.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Jason, just remember they get to play the Mets eighteen.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
But the men know the Mets are better again. Mets
are like not look up the record of the Mets
against the Marlins to record three.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I think it's nine and three, right, you play one
hundred and sixty two. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
That that run differential is just absolutely bananas. I mean,
I really really well.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
I mean, I mean, what are TV eras. I haven't
looked at those in a while this year, right, I mean,
if we go if you're outscoring teams, because again it
goes back to blowouts, right like, for for the rest.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Of the season.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
The Dolphins stuff is gonna be skewed. They've got two
great games already. Don't get me wrong, but when you
hang seventy on somebody, you can have a couple of
duns and still look like you're scoring thirty A game.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Man exit out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. The
Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon, live
from the Tirack dot Com Studios. Now, I'm pretty sure
Aaron Rodgers listens to the show, right, it was early.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
I respected don't say he does.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I'm pretty sure he does. I'm pretty sure he does.
He's been here in Malibu and rehabbing with his achilles injury.
And what did we say Monday Tuesday this week when
Aaron Rodgers spoke about the Jets and how they need
to grow up a little bit on offense, have to
stop causing scenes on the sideline, which they did Sunday
when they lost to the Patriots, and all the Jets
(09:10):
said was, yes, he's right, He's right. Look, Rogers is
as much of a coach as he is a player.
Robert Sala even said it. And this is why we
talk about Aaron Rodgers' future NFL head coach. He's going
to do it differently than anybody's ever seen. Is going
to turn the NFL on it's ear.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven
pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
But on Monday and Tuesday, we said, you know what's great, Hey,
get your ass to New York. Okay, the team needs
you Obviously, what you say they take into account. They
take into account you saying it. It's like the coach
says it. Maybe it's even bigger than the coach saying it,
because they believe the cachet that you have over the
cachet that Robert Sala has. So you know what, I know,
(09:59):
you're here in and you're rich. But it's time for
you to get on a plane and get to New
York and be with the Jets. Just your presence, just
Aaron Rodgers' presence on the sideline is going to help.
His presence will help calm Zach Wilson. It may not
make him a better quarterback, but it will calm the
Jets down and they won't have to be a team
that is fighting with each other tooth and nail after
every incomplete pass. Because right now it looks like things
(10:21):
are gonna just explode and they're gonna get worse before
they get better. They'll lose to the Chiefs forty to ten,
and suddenly it's gonna be the seasons over. Rogers has
to get to New York. What do we see today
from any insiders, Hey looks like Aaron Rodgers is gonna
be going to the Jets game on Sunday. All right,
about time. I've done my job. Now the Jets gotta
do theirs on Sunday. I got Aaron Rodgers to the Jets.
(10:42):
I got Aaron Rodgers to New York and now or
maybe Taylor Swifted. Okay, so Taylor Swift and I got
Aaron Rodgers to New York. Now the Jets got to
do their part on Sunday. Yeah, I think you.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Know, he teased a little bit on McAfee, and everybody
just assumed he was giving the nod and the wink
over to Taylor. Swift said quote, you never know who
you're going to see at the game, And you and
I had talked about it, and I was convinced he
was as much teasing his appearance to show up to
be that guy, to be that emotional leader, or to
just go and gawk at Taylor Swift and whichever friends
(11:16):
show up. Maybe Selena Gomez shows up with her. I
don't know, I ever can't tell. It's me just kind
of projecting and hoping, fellas, But you know, just the
idea of all right, you said it, you put it
out there and be about it right the old you know,
You can talk about it, you can sit on your couch,
(11:36):
but at some point you got to be back in
that locker room.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
It can't be zoom calls.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
It can't be Hey, I texted, you know, texted Zach
to tell him I still believe in him even with
all that. No, no, you can't do any of that crap.
You got to get back and be there and be
the guy on the sideline in the locker room. And look,
get your sideline pass. I don't know if you can
become an ad you know, adjunk kind of professor, slash
(12:03):
coach or what the rules are in terms of hanging
out and having a headset on and being part of
the action. But don't tell me for a second. They're
not looking into ways to get him involved and for him. Look,
it's image rehabilitation on a whole other level.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Now, Jason.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
We talked about it doing hard knocks, We talked about it,
all of these different things. Look how active I am,
Look how much I love these young guys. I've got handshakes,
They're giving me thirty thousand dollars necklaces. I'm the greatest
tourist you've ever seen in this area. It's all fine
and good, and now it's time to really be about
it in season. And if he can lead Zach Wilson
(12:41):
back to mediocrity or something resembling mediocrity and you can
steal a game or two with this defense, Yeah, you're
not doing it this week, but if you can do
it in the future, then then yeah, I mean, how
much better does it make him look? Because it starts
to erase everything that you'd heard about him or had
(13:02):
been whispered about him for year. It doesn't mean that
it was true, but what happens perception becomes reality. You're
away from the team, you're doing your ayahuasca, you know,
walk through the jungle with Miles Teller and all this
other stuff dark and darkness, room retreats and everything else
that you can push some of that away to show
you still care about your career and what this team
(13:24):
is gonna do.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Look at it.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
You win, you end up winning. You get Taylor Swift,
friendship bracelets and Aaron Rodgers. Now I'm gonna get stars,
Mike Jets win thirty eight three.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
There you go, that's.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
What's gonna thirty eight Which which Earth have you transported to?
In the office? Cinematic universe.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's the last game Taylor Swift will ever attend in
any sporting event ever.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
Yeah, but it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Well, you know, she's back on tour on the eighteenth,
so she's got a couple couple of weeks left to do.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
No, her eyes might not work after watching the Jets, Mike,
what happened?
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Her stage shows much different. She doesn't move around as much. Well, listen,
you know I love Travis Kelsey. I went to go
see the Chiefs play the Bears and then the Jets. Okay,
I had to fly to Kansas City for one of
those games. All Right, this is love everybody. She's recognizing
what NFL fans have had to do for a long time.
We celebrate off to seventy two, but they ain't all
(14:23):
created equal.

Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with My Best Friend
by Carmon live from the ti iraq dot Com Studios.
Big Saturday in College Football Colorado and USC about to
kick off in about eight minutes from now. Big Noon
Kickoff that happens really early. Lots of big time title
contenders hitting the road this week. Maybe Duke stays undefeated,
(14:55):
maybe Kansas Day is undefeated. We're looking to Kansas and
Duke at the national championship in there in football. Think
about that, Kansas and Duke, Kansas Duke Ucla. Can we say,
can we get four? Because we go all the accs,
I's like, oh well, Syracuse in North Carolina. No, no,
no one of them's gotta lose. We got Duke, we
(15:15):
got Kansas. Now we can work that out with us
now on the hotline. No one better to break down
the action coming up this weekend than long time Vegas insider.
Check out his bet the Board podcast. Former odds maker
at Caesar's Palace, now our insider here with us at
Fox Sports Radio. He is on Twitter at Todd Furman,
the aforementioned Todd Ferman. What's happening, Bud?
Speaker 6 (15:38):
You know, these segments, guys, used to be a lot
more fun when you both had football teams that root
for that at least showed a little bit of fight.
They could be competitive on Sundays. Now it's not even fun.
It's like picking on the four foot seven guy's gonna
get drafted last at recess, and you know, no matter
how things go, it's not going to end well for him.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Can I bet the over under on Taylor Swift?
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Look in the Booths.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
I mean there's a distinct possibility she may complete as
many passes on Sunday as Zach Wilson while leading the
Jets offense.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Wow, see how quickly we got there. I mean, look,
the Bears are the Bears. I mean, look, Taylor Swift
doing charity work, showing up for a Bears game followed
by a Jets game. So I don't know what the
tax right off and the implications are there Todd, but
certainly a lot of economic impact. Chiefs generally has big favorites.
(16:30):
We don't get too excited a little about them. How
big do they would you lay in this one?
Speaker 6 (16:36):
I mean, look, it's two in his bound. So to
speak for Travis Kelsey that these are the two games
that if Taylor Swift's gonna show up, she gets to
watch two teams that really struggle to defend the tight end,
and Travis can be poised to have a big day.
I imagine this thing is over by the time they
actually have to step up in class and take on
the Miami Dolphins on foreign soil in early November. But
when you look at the game Sunday night, we've actually
(16:58):
seen professional money come in on the Jets. Again, it's
a thought process that when you look at a total
this low and the forty one and a half forty
two range, with a number that was hovering right around
double digits, that the Jets defense can do enough to
keep this game competitive. Kansas City's offense hasn't fired on
all cylinders yet this season. I just don't know what
it's going to take for them to get outside this number,
(17:18):
because when you look at the Jets, it feels like
ten to thirteen points might be the most they're able
to put on the scoreboard.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Now, wait a minute, ten to thirty. What if Taylor
Swift is playing quarterback.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
I mean, look, unless you can run the option, I'm
not quite sure how this is going to work out.
Maybe this is a brief saw Michael Carter game and
you get Dalvin Cook involved and you just run the football.
Fifty two out of the fifty five offensive plays you
guys will have on Sunday, All right, I like the.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Way you think.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Let's see speaking of over under over under for number
of times Taylor Swift is shown on television.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
Oh, I mean, here's the thing that you actually have
to handicap the game because if it's a blowout at halftime,
that number goes up substantially. But if the Jets are
within one, she's not going to get shown nearly as
many times. So if we're using it like a Super
Bowl prop from the moment the game kicks off until
it goes final, I'll set the over under of camera
(18:10):
shots if we get a Taylor Swift at five and
a half.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
All right, So you mentioned the Bears in terms of
talking about how badly our team sucked Todd Denver three
and a half or three, depending where you're looking on
the road at Chicago. For the Bears, they got the
gift that until Claypool opened his trap today, it had
been a pretty quiet week, a lot of excuse making,
but people were more concerned about the Kelsey Swift relationship
(18:37):
with Jared Payton getting that video than actually playing football,
and under on this one is all the way up
at forty seven, which just seems odd.
Speaker 6 (18:46):
I mean, look, the Bears may be terrible, but the
Bears aren't the team in this matchup. They gave up
seventy points last week, so it's the first time the
Bears can go into a game on Sunday and hold
their head up high compared to the opponent. The problem
for the Bears is they have nobody that's capable of
playing in the defensive backfield. I mean, you look at
a Jackson, he's out, Jalen Johnson ruled out. You have
a couple of players that are on ir and Josh
(19:08):
Blackwell and such. So this is a game where Russell
Wilson is going to be able to hunt a deep
ball and I think he's going to have some success. Meanwhile,
for justin Field, if he can't get right against the
Denver's Broncos defense, that's really lacking an identity right now.
It's an even bigger problem that it looks on the surface.
This game has been interesting because you have seen some
over money come in. The total now out to forty
seven from where it opened at forty four and a
(19:29):
half forty five, and every time the number does get
to three and a half, there is an appetite to
back the home underdog here from three and a half
down to three. So that's about the extent of the
information I can offer up. It will not get my
money side or.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Total Todd ferman our guesty are insider from Vegas. All right,
let's look at some action tomorrow. Obviously the big noon kickoff.
You have Colorado getting twenty one against USC. We watched
Colorado last week at boat Race by Oregon. USC's got
a great offense, their defense is not great. Replay from
(20:02):
last week and Colorado keep it closed. What do you
think on this one?
Speaker 6 (20:05):
You know, I think Colorado will be better, But this
is the first time, maybe all season for the Buffs
that this number is a fair reflection of where their
power rating would have been had this game taken place
way back in week one, because when you looked at
some of the summer numbers and the look ahead prices,
USC was projected to be a three touchdown favorite, and
that's exactly where we are now. The problem for Colorado,
for as poorly as they played last week against Oregon,
(20:27):
USC looked like it was a glorified scrimmage. For their
trip down to ten p against Arizona State, I think
they'll be much more buttoned up. And while you do
worry about USC defensively, I'm not sure Colorado can get
a stop in the first half. So if you're looking
at this game and you believe that the Trojans defense
will show up, I think it's a layot or don't
play a type scenario, especially in the first thirty minutes,
(20:47):
but would not shock me at all. As Colorado's hanging around,
They're down twenty eight to thirty one points and they
find a way to sneak in the back door. So
I don't see a whole lot in the way of
betting value in this game, the same way I did
last Friday against Oregon.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
So last week we watched the Ohio State Notre Dame
game come down to the final snap. Notre Dame now
on the road against the Darlings. I can never say
that with Duke basketball, of course, but for football purposes,
it's fun to have somebody else up there. But a
smallish five and a half point line has the luster
come off of the Irish even with just that narrow loss.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
I think the big question for the Irish is what
will their focus look like if this is a team
that's fully entrenched and engage in the wake of that
gut wrenching loss in South Bend last week against Ohio State.
Notre Dame has the players and the capabilities to create
a little bit of separation. The problem for the Irish
right now is that they didn't have an overly skilled
receiving room to begin with, and now it's depleted a
little bit by injuries. But this feels like it could
(21:43):
be an Audric estimate game. I really think he goes
over the century mark. And when we look at Duke,
they've exceeded expectations early on in the season. The secondary
has been outstanding, but you look at the strength of
schedule that they faced and it hasn't exactly been teams
that are capable of putting stress on them, at least
through the air. Notre Dame isn't going to necessarily fit
that bill by any stretch of the imagination. But Duke
(22:04):
is in the middle of the pack against the run,
and I think Notre Dame can have some success. So
I actually think game day, being in Durham for the
first time in an eternity, can work against Duke. For me,
it's favorite or pass. But again it's another game that
I think the number is relatively fair. Watch a couple
drives and if you have access to live betting, you
may have an opportunity to bet the Irish early.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
All right, Todd penn Stake's playing Northwestern. They practiced all
week with no music to get ready for the quiet.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
Incredible, incredible for James Franklin. As much as I don't
like some of his antics, his comments were outstanding, talking
about external and internal motivation.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Give me the over under for the decibel level at
Northwestern four.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Wow, I mean it's an eleven.
Speaker 6 (22:43):
It's an eleven central kick because I think the better
question is how many Northwestern fans will actually show up
and be there by kickoff? And the answer maybe thirty
seven As they're sitting in the parking lot trying to
deal at easy seven, trying to deal with traffic on
the Edens. It's not the easiest place to get to
on Lake Michigan on a Saturday early in the day,
but it will no doubt be a sleepy environment. Well, look, Smith,
(23:04):
we can't sell Northwestern short. They are fresh off of
a ridiculous comeback last week against the row Row Row
your boat gently down the stream Minnesota Golden Gophers. I
didn't know Northwestern could score twenty one points in a
game let alone a race a three touchdown deficit. So
when I look at this game, I actually think the underdog.
There's a little bit of life here, especially around four touchdowns.
(23:24):
But again, there are better things to do early on
a Saturday than waste your time watching this, even for
prominent alums of both of these fine, upstanding academic institutions.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Yeah, even if you don't want to watch it, plus
twenty six and a half at home, what do you think?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
I mean? The bottom line is here harm you don't
have to watch early on in this game. You flip
on in the fourth quarter and you hope that Bryant
can lead you guys into the through the back door
if it's a ugly, ugly activity down there in Evanston.
