Speaker 3 (00:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
I be a little nervous with the cadence right out
of the gate there, Smith, I mean, I see you've
turned to fully leaded.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Oh, I hear every so much you today. I am
double fisting with die coke and coffee because I am
extra amped up after.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Today jacked up slam that desk. Yeah, jacked up, great event.
Good to see you guys all This afternoon, and now
I've got to listen about the Mets.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
No, Rich Davis came out of his way to just
kind of hug me, and he's like, hey, we'll.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Get to the Mets, because we'll get to the Mets.
Trust me, we'll get to the Mets.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
You think I just wanted to get it out of way.
I wanted to rip the band aid off and just
be done with.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Well, we'll get to We'll get to the Mets, because hey,
there is there is no one gonna be happier to
finish second in MVP voting than Francisco Lindor. He will
be so happy highest the Mets ever finished in MVP voting.
No one will be happier to finish second. It's almost
like he's really winning the award because well, Otani's gonna
be fifty to fifty, so he got Let's let's have
(01:50):
another award for somebody else. So it seems like a
little bit less anticlimactic fantastic.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Well, here's something that I think you'll find kind entertaining.
As of right now, looking at the Vegas inside, they've
got a number of the odds up from different bookmakers show, Hey,
Otani anywhere from minus fourteen hundred all the way to
minus six point fifty. Okay, friend ceesc glendor plus four
(02:20):
fifty at one book up through plus six fifty plus
seven hundred.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
So the only ones that you're getting odd, they're the
only ones. So everybody else is sive. Ozuna is having
a fantastic gear. He's between sixty six and one hundred
to one. Bryce Harper behind him and go on from there.
But Lindor the fantastic run that he's had, show Heyotani,
while the numbers overall are grandiose, a bit of a
(02:46):
slow down. So you're saying there's a chance. Well, look
when it comes to MVP vote. Look, I've told you
so much. You want me to come and sit here
and rant and Raven say, Look, Lindor had the big
headline today. The Blue Jays were pitching a no hitter
into the ninth inning, second time in a month he
had gone to the ninth inning. When the no hitter,
well you get a one two e R and his
(03:08):
six starts, I mean, just ridiculous. Lindor breaks it up,
breaks up the no hitter in the ninth inning with
a line drive home run. The Mets score six in
the inning. They win the game six to two. The
Braves lose. The Mets are now a game up. The
Mets are just shown you cannot kill us. The Mets
are like Jason Vorhees and Michael Myers rolled into one
just to think you have I'm gonna sit up like
(03:29):
nothing is wrong you think you got, especially like the
last one, what was the remake one where they all
like beat the crap out of Michael Myers in the street.
They're all like hitting him and I'm like, just cut
off his head. He's not coming back.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Cut off his head.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
But they don't have you ever yelled highlander his as
highlander cut off his heady.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
He can be only one. Let's see which one of
you gets the quickening. If you do it, let's go.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
He just beat him to death so bad? And what happens? Yeah, no,
I'm good. I get up and then he kills everybody
else there. Well, I mean he might be deadpool, I
mean regenerate. But that's kind of what the Mets are.
And Lindor is the face of this now. Look to
be honest, there are times, and that's why this voting
is gonna be really interesting. I'm telling you Otani is
(04:12):
the envy, but we as good as as much as
I love Lindor. We brought it up three weeks ago,
just kind of a yeah, watch out, just watch out.
He's hitting like he's not gonna catch him. If he did,
something catastrophic will have happened to Otani. And he just
stopped the accumulating stats for whatever the purpose. But Lindor
(04:33):
has been on an absolute tear. And it's the Mets,
and you'd think you'd get more run, but nope.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
You've got Judge, you've got Rogers, you've got Daniel Jones,
you've got the Knicks.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I like your pause after Daniel Jones, very nice. I
wanted to see how you'd respond to that. Look, Otani's
going to it look fifty to fifty the only thing
that could open the door for Lindor a little bit.
And I'm telling you he's gonna finish second.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
Right.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
It's gonna be Otani Lindor, and that's gonna be all
the votes. There's gonna be nobody else on the ballot,
not even Hey, the Green Bay Press Gazette has decided
to put a vote. If no, that's not even happening.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
You know what I'm talking about never put it past
the Green Bay. The only thing that would give Lindor
a chance is that MVP voters in baseball and cy
Young voters in baseball, Rookie of the Year voters. They're
different from everybody else. They vote with agendas way more
often than you think they do, and once in a
(05:27):
while they can decide to be very principled. And when
you compare the season that Otani is having with Lindor's
as good in all around season, Lindor as having again
Otani fifty to fifty, the Dodgers in first place by
twenty games. But they can be principled, and it would
not surprise me if there is a Hey, Lindor plays
(05:48):
shortstop every day, he doesn't take a day off. His
defensive war is really it's in the top three if
shortstops in Major League Baseball. It would not surprise me
if there is a ground swell or in a grassroots
effort for Hey, what Lindora is doing is more impressive
because he's in the field every day and Otani is
swinging the bat four times a day, I would say
(06:08):
the others out there, I will throw that open. But
the other part that comes to it is that you've
got multiple MVP awards for Otani already, right, you know,
you've already collected some hardware. So even though he's changed
leagues and what he's done is amazing, all the Dodgers
are expected to be amazing.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
See what I'm doing amazing because amazing.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Is that you're you're looking at a guy who had
already hit such extraordinary heights. And unfortunately, when we do
these voting processes, we get maybe voted fatigue, but also,
what's a better story for me to write my copy
on Otani went to Dodgers did what we said plus
(06:52):
stolen bases. That's really where we're at right now. Didn't pitch,
didn't play the field. To your point, Lindor, playing shortstop
and the demands of that position has to have some
bearing on it. Again, I don't think it's enough to
topple it, but it's enough to at least have the discussion.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Sure, which a.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Month ago when we were starting to have this, people
would have said, you're insane. It's like, no, I mean,
it's worth the conversation just to walk through it.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Like even with the MVP.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Voting we watched in the NFL this last year with
Lamar Jackson. You could have made the case for six
or seven other guys, but he walks away with his
second MVP. Would he get a third with those numbers? No,
just like nicolea. Jokic didn't get his third. It's like,
all right, we've seen this, we've done this.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Forget us, and it's not fair. It's not right.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Guess what.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Life's not fair and right all the time.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Now, as much as I'm giving the award to Otani
because again fifty to fifty, I'm telling you the other
thing that needs to happen, and this doesn't really concern
me because it's going to happen because he's just so close.
Is that now it's almost like he has to get
to fifty to fifty to win the MVP because if
he finishes forty nine, forty eight, forty eight for something
like that, is that gonna be enough?
Speaker 3 (08:12):
It should be.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
But because of the ground swell and that hey lindor
every day shorts that voters can be, they can decide
to accept or ignore whatever they want to. That's why
I love voting for postseason awards because by year and
by year, hey, a guy playing defensively can have a
big impact on how they vote, or it can have
no impact. Well, shouldn't have the same impact every year. Nope,
only when we feel like it. But this feels like
(08:35):
one of those years where Hey, look at Lindor look
at what he's doing. He plays every day, he doesn't
take a day off. That's a big thing. Two plays
every inning of every game. And because of that defensively,
because he succeeded not just plays, but plays shortstop really well.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
They also almost packed it in a while ago, right,
and he was credited as being the leader in the
clubhouse that spoke up and slapped everybody upside to head.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Moving him to lead off. Well, actually, Grimace throwing out
the first pitch and moving into leadoff is really what
jump started the mess.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
I think you can write in Grimace, but doesn't he
have to have like a player contract or something.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Doesn't he have to If enough people write Grimace in Grimace,
does it Okay?
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
It does?
Speaker 4 (09:19):
So like last year, say Edwin Diaz hadn't gotten hurt,
the dude with the trumpet could have gotten Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Maybe you could write into they would split the award.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
You can see both holding it up at the same time.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Here.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
It is your Rolaids relief Man of the Year Award.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Now tell me this for for O Tommy, though, doesn't
it don't you want to see it come down to
like the last game or two of the season, and
he decided to take the stolen base, and there's a
brief pause about whether it's catcher indifference or not, and
then we start asking game like whether he's trying to
get the triple double, yeah, or trying to extend his
(09:57):
double double streak or something.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
And nobody wants to get it, so they allow him,
and not only that, but to steal third two you know, like, hey,
we're gonna stay back, We're not even take the throat.
Just it's a pack indifference all around the bases. No, no, no,
Then I stole that base. He does it to second,
he does it to third, then he does it to
home as he's coming in, and the catcher just throws
the ball back.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
To the pitcher just ignores him, categorically ignores him, like
all right.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
He gets all the way around on a fielders in difference,
I've never seen that before. He's not getting a stolen
base on any of that. Isn't that three stolen bases. No, sorry,
that's fielders in difference all the way around. Legitimately, there
were three plays.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
No, I can't do it. Can't do it, can't do it.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
So i'd be fun potential for chaos final three weeks
of your Major League Baseball season and your Mets.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Today, I had a bunch of one liners that were
just foaming.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
I was foaming at the mouth to like, because I
had to go get some imaging right my daughter with
their wrist or whatever. And we're sitting there waiting on
our turn to go, and I'm watching the game, like,
come on really like it was.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
A no hitter. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you killed every bit.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah that's all.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Hey bit, I'll be on when he hit that home
run and he just tomahawked it that line drive home run.
I said, this MVP race just got really close. Sometimes
one game, one thing can do it. And when this
hat went when Sometimes when when when a play or
a game happens in a vacuum. And that was the
(11:28):
thing today was what's going on during the day near
no hitter, So everybody is starting to pay attention. Well
we got no hitter here. Same guy for the Blue
Jays had a no hitter a month ago into the
ninth inning with the Angels, maybe no hitting the Mets,
let's take a look at it. Suddenly it becomes a
big flashpoint and Lindor breaking it up. It's every night
with this guy, every night, and now he owns the
(11:49):
news cycle and into tonight into the next day. Sometimes
not not every home run is created equally, And certainly
that was a huge jump because now you're getting that
discussion about oh, Lindor and what he does all around
versus Otani, and that's gonna wind up being the debate
the next three weeks is is Lindor all around better
than Otani just hitting? And that's gonna be the big one.
(12:11):
And normally I would say, no, all around is better,
but again, Otani, fifty to fifty, he's gonna be if
he's not fifty to fifty, hey, let's open that up.
But fifty to fifty is We've seen six forty forty
seasons in the history of baseball. We've never seen a
fifty to fifty and we're gonna see it.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
Yeah, right now, the implied odds at minus seven hundred,
I'll take the h The low point is uh eighty
eight percent. So it's opened up enough, right, Whereas when
we looked at it a couple of weeks ago, about
a full month ago, we were looking at like minus
twenty two thousand, which is implied ninety eight percent for him.
(12:51):
But uh so Jose ramiros gotten his forty forty yet
no one, we're still he's nobody.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
No one cares about forty forty any war O Tani's done.
Otani's at forty six forty seven. I at least wanted
to get the guys not fail. That's nice, No, that's great.
That's like someone who sets two people who set a
record in the Olympic event, but the person wins the
gold medal sets it by like more seconds. See now
the person in second is like, hey, I set a
(13:18):
world record too, except for that guy. Yeah, that's great.
We don't care about you.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
See now you're going back to the nineteen ninety home
run race. We don't care if your job, Sammy, that
was great. Yeah, yeah, you're interesting, Sammy. But yeah, no
one even knows how many home runs you ended with, Sammy,
doesn't matter. Sorry about that. Grypt was up on that board,
yeah there, yeah, but hey you know what, so so
you know because we you know.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
We we are a sports station.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Oh yeah, yeah a little bit.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Let's uh, let's hear the home run.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
That's driven to day probably failed.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
How the home run is the noo hit bed Li.
Speaker 7 (13:50):
Sanity, Franciscolin dorm tie the game?
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Well, the ninth home run, Oh you're fired? Well no, no, no,
it's it's it's actually, here's the thing. It's actually Lynn
Sanity l I N D for Lindor because then you
have to spend a lot of money Lynd sanity. Yeah
you sure, Jeremy, you still owned all you got to
enunciate that D.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
This is Lynd vanity. You don't get that D up there, Lynn,
say you get those fours up when it's the fourth
hour of the show. You don't get that D in there.
They're coming for you, sir.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
You said the word Lynn sanity on the show approximately
fourteen times at seven dollars a pop. That is eighty
four dollars, no, sorry, seventy ninety eight dollars there you
got say, I did a math right there fourteen times seven.
It did a pretty pretty fast seven times of seventy
and then twenty eight ninety that that did that pretty fast.
I mean I shouldn't have said eighty four. I mean
(14:40):
I was really off. I didn't say ninety six.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Now, but I got there.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
There you go, Lynd Sanity. Make sure lin Lynd you
enunciate that d Lynn. I'm not I'm not paying James
Dolan anything for any of it. I'm sure he bought
Lyn Sanity from Jeremy Lynn and now he gets all
the money and Lynn just gets a aim in every
month or so, like it's a check that actors get.
Oh here, look at the royalties I'm still getting off
(15:05):
of off of friends all these years later. Look at
the roads I'm still getting off of family ties all
these years later. But there ain't known nothing. Dj sha
la la la. Uh So again, Otani's the MVP. Lindor
will finished second. However, it's got to get to fifty
(15:27):
and wait and see how the wind blows. Because again,
when voters want to, they can be really principled and
stand up and say I'm giving it to this guy
just saying I'm just saying, just saying, principled, exit out.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
That's come to give you some of that cash back
they got when they were writing all those fluff pieces
for the Juicer.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
No no, you don't get the money back. Do you
want to talk about.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Principled miss What are you all guys collecting checks?
Speaker 1 (15:53):
What are you payting thorn? Hey, you don't give me money.
You want you want money back? If I lose, not
paying money if I win? On on that that doesn't

Can't make it. Sorry, Ma. He sounds like you're not
street Peyton and Cuppermanni. And then the next day we

so sad. I'm dying, our kids are dying, the next
door neighbors are dying. All the animals are dead, cars dead,
(22:23):
can't go anywhere. In fact, I'm dying in five seconds.
Merry Christmas. That's every Walter Brennan Christmas song. Steve Dahl
did something like that at the end of the seventies.
I eat so anyway, your old man's story was what.
So I had a great idea and I always get
(22:44):
got at poop pood when I was at ESPN was
I always wanted to do uh an idol type thing
to find someone to you know, we have like an
American Idol type of contest where people send in to
do auditions and send in audio file whatever it is,
and they audition and they get a part time role
(23:06):
at Fox at ESPN because I I did the idea ESPN.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
Well, but I mean, think about it. They had that
whole dream job. So you didn't get any writer credit
for that. No, no, no, no, all these years later, nothing.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
Changes, no, no, no. And the thing is is that
I was so mad because I had the idea, said
I think this would be great and it would be
a whole big thing and people would love it. And
the guy who I had to ask to do it
told me no. He said no, no, we're not going
to do it. And this is the guy who was
just in charge of like a bunch of years ago,
(23:35):
Mike and Mike are on the radio. They did this
wedding giveaway where people want people wanted to get married,
won this wedding thing and they got married on the
show and everything else. It was a huge thing. He
spearheaded that it was a huge deal for ESPN. Right, Oh,
the marriage is a great So I said, okay, oh yeah,
how about all night? I don't no, no, no, here's
all the stuff you have to do to worry about it.
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Go.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
What do you mean the stuff I have to do?
You know, you got to get this cleared. You got
to get this clear. You gotta go.
Speaker 5 (23:58):
I go.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I'm sorry, Mike and Mike got that stuff cleared. You
didn't do that. Someone didn't do that.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
For them.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I was so mad at this, like, no, I'm just
not gonna do it. I'm not gonna do it for you.
I'm not gonna do it. I was so mad.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
And now the guy's not even radio anymore. They did
one of those things.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
So I went in the larger Fox Sports radio world.
That's how my guy, Peter Burns, who was on the
Fantasy Freaks with me all those years.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Yeah, that's how he got into didn't they didn't? Didn't
they name I thought they named that character on Melrose
Place for him. That was Jack Wagner's character. He was
Peter Burns. Fritzka boy. We've talked so long about this.
They started a long line. I'm oh.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
I mean, look, it's a very popular song. I was
one of those you'd be at a dance, Ay, hey,
can you play that again?
Speaker 1 (24:35):
You have to get this cleared. But that's not my job.
Isn't that for you to get? Well? Yeah, but I'm
not gonna do it. Oh great, thanks, Okay, I appreciate that.
A great idea that you went Bartle's and James on him. Oh,
thank you for your support. Okay, thank you.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
See I like this music, Tysher, that's good that's good.
I remember when the Declaration of Independence was signed, my
pen didn't have any ink in it.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
So I went and I grabbed an eagle, and I
pulled a quill off, and I stuck it right in
my own blood, and I saw the declaration on the bottom.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
One of my favorite memories was throwing tea off in
Boston's boat.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
I said, no, don't throw the tea off, because people
just sink.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Throw it on a boat.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
At least we can take it and offload it. We
can put it on a truck and drive it down south.
I got a market, I got a fence for it.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
All.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Come on, babysitting Abraham.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Okay, all right, I I I gotta we gonna we're
gonna talk about the Shannon Sharp sex tape. Okay, okay,
we're gonna talk about that, all right. Then we change
the music a little quickly. Allegedly, sorry, allegedly. I think
I think he's fessed up that nobody said he got hacked. No,
he said he got hack.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Said it was me, He said he got hack that's me.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
No, he shaggied it and then he brought it back. Yeah.
Uh so this tape or this video gets leaked earlier
today on a live stream that supposedly was Shannon Sharp
having sex with the woman who I think we know
her name is Michelle, Because you know, that's trending everywhere
and there's no.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Video of it.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Like a phone set up. I'm sure you've seen it
or listened to it. A phone is set up and
you hear two people having a good time with each other,
and you hear her say his name, and her name
is said, and Shannon Sharp says, I was hacked. I'm
getting to the bottom of this right away. She call
him unk. Oh yeah, that that's that's too weird. That's
(26:27):
that's too weird. Now you get Now you're getting weird
on me, armin. Now you're getting weird on me. So
this take it's out there, and now Shannon Sharp decides
at the end to say, oh, hey, you know, yeah,
I know I said all that stuff about uh yeah,
but uh yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
So quote I threw my phone on the bed, noting
that he had no idea he he's live streaming on
Instagram at the time.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
Quote my heart sank.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
My team, My team is working vigorously to figure this out,
working vigorously to figure it out. So I don't like,
I don't know why you put out the statement, if
you're just gonna then later on say okay it was me.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Once you realize how good this is for you. Yeah,
the Kardashians are billionaires.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah because of the truth.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Hey wait a minute.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Uh some people were convinced she can act.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Things are actually okay, Shannon, you can own up to this.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
Oh okay, great, yeah, many many millions of downloads and
had some funny commentary.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
It's like it's like in The Boys when Homelander kills
that one person, that innocent bystander thinks, oh my god,
now we're's gonna hate I'm gonna go to prison, and
they'll start cheering for him. It's like, oh, oh, all right,
maybe I'm alright with this. Like that's probably how it was. Hey,
I was hacked. I'm getting working vigorous, getting to the
bottom of this, and he was working vigorous, and then
it was hey, uh everything is okay. Man. People are
(27:46):
just kind of saying, hey, got that freaky video out, alright,
Now here's the thing about it that's better than the
interviews that we got, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Okay, yeah, I think so. I think so well, you know,
I listen.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
You had the big Cat Williams, you gotta follow it
up with some kind of interview with.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Uh, this is this is something.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
This is different because this is and this. This is
what makes this sex tape story so different, is that
this is the thinking man's and thinking person sex tape
because you don't see anything.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
You just hear it. So it's really theater of the
mind with what you think is happening.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
So you got to figure out what you think. Michelle.
Exactly when I've first played it and I'm listening to it,
my wife just goes, is that another dog video? Wait?
I get inundated with dog videos now, because you know
I have multipoop and now I get inundated, like I
clicked on one on Instagram and now forget it, like
every day is here's a new multipoo video and some
(28:49):
of her funny and I showed her by the beginning,
you hear like a.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Little bit of the yelling.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Mife goes, is that another dog video? I go, Now,
Shannon Sharp apparently was having sex with a woman and
livestream and she goes, what I go, Yeah, this is
going to be a while to unfold, but it's a
it's a thinking man sex because it's not hey, oh,
here's the sex on camera that you can see if
it was the Kim Kardashian tape or the Pamela Anderson
(29:15):
tape or the Tanya Heart whatever it was not, so
you could just say this is, oh, I got a
kind of envision what I might see. So this could
have been a dramatic reading, this is this is theater
of the mind. This could be stuff.
Speaker 8 (29:29):
Right.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
It might not even have been sex. They might have
just been Hey, I'm gonna like, how do you know
what a gronking to remember? Remember that book? I remember
when it came out. I didn't read it. I read
a lot. I didn't read that.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
You read a gronking or not? Did you read a gronky?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Let me curiously, let me see your history what you've
ordered all I don't think you will. You read the book?
You read a gronking? Thumb through it?
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Really really did?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (30:01):
You really did gronking? To remember? About far did you
get it was? It didn't take very long to get
through it.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Did the Patriots win?
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Of course? Okay? All right? Did they?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Did they play the Jets?
Speaker 1 (30:11):
They went over the Jets? Bronked? Well, you can use
the Jets as the team.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
They fought oh the trade Marks and the New England,
the City. The New Englanders beat the the airplanes today
in the game.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
It was very big.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Then they beat the Bison and that was very big.
Then they beat the uh uh, what's up? You said?
It's all very big that it became a gronky. They
beat the bottle noses. That was a big game to
the bottles. I like that. That's good. Or the porpoises
(30:46):
beat the porpoises bottle noses. Really of all this, now
you you've derailed me that you actually bought and read
a gronking to remember, know what? I I do copious
research for the show, apparently, so you know, I got
to read this romance don't unturned because look, everybody's got
a children's book out these days. I gotta start somewhere. Okay,
(31:07):
so we can get in the romance aisle. This is
the exact opposite of it. No, but we could go
one way or the other.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
Okay, all right, I want to be on that that
wall that you go to when you go to Barnes
and Noble at the holidays and they try to say, hey,
limited editions, sign copies.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
I want them to be, you know, something by Harmon
for the kids. The Thinking Man sex tape, that's just
think about the Thinking Man said, Hey, you're not gonna
see it, but you're gonna get to picture it. How
does he top it? And then what's the sequel? Uh? Boy,
I think he's got a little bit to go. I
think he's got to go back to the Seyche podcast.
You can't you can't top this here, you have to go. Okay,
(31:41):
we did podcast, now we did Thinking Man sex tape,
and now we're gonna have to do something else different. Okay, yeah,
that's something. I mean, you're gonna have to see it though,
because you got to me. This is great. Okay, I'm.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Into unboxing of shoes and gifts. People send him into
this theater. I think you do a dramatic reading of
all the comments that.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Came in theater of the mind.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Whatever you see on television does not compare to the
imagination of Bart Simpson. I can imagine quite a bit.
This is the best tape ever. But what are you
thinking of?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
It doesn't matter what I'm thinking of.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I'm thinking on what hold on now, skip, I'm.
Speaker 8 (32:23):
Thinking on what television The Mets are winning the World Series,
and I'm watching that while I'm enjoying myself, and on
another television, Aaron Rodgers is telling me to relax, relax, relax.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
This is what I'm picturing. I mean, that helps the
process time to find what's trending in the wide world
of sports. From someone who I hope her headphones have
been off for the last few minutes, Monty Blagno's that's
all the news, Mancy.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
You guys.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
I was gesturing to you, Jason as you guys were
talking because Shoho Tani hit his forty seventh homer of
the season to lead off the Dodgers in the bottom
of the ninth inte And I know, oh, I know,
with Francisco Lindor's night. But then that wasn't it. Then
Tommy Edmond hit a two run shot. Will Smith just
hit another homer. Max Munsey just hit a home run.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Cubs pitcher Jordan A.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
Wicks has not gotten out of the first inning, has
given up six hits and five earned runs.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
What the hell? Oh, I gotta go on, j Jordan
Wicks like Wicks Furniture going out of business very early
in this game. TJ go spend your sign, go, spend
your sign. Stop it.
Speaker 5 (33:31):
So the Dodgers are beating the Cubs five to two
after the first inning. Again, this just got started. But
Otani now forty seven and forty seven. After Francisco Lindor
literally broke up the no hitter for the Mets against
the Blue Jays, they scored nine runs all in the
ninth inning and they beat them six to two. So
it's been an exciting day for sure. In baseball, the
Nationals outscored the Braves.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Five to one.
Speaker 5 (33:53):
Atlanta one game out of the final walk card spot
in the National League behind the Mets. The Phillies edged
the race three to two, and the Red Sox defeated
the Orioles five to Tyler O'Neill with the three run
shot in the tenth inning.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
The Yankees and the Royals went to eleven innings. New
York wins it.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Jazz Chishom Junior puts the ball in play, gets the
walk off RBI, so the Yankees win it. Let's check
in on the NFL, where Packers head coach Matt Lafleora
says the door is still open for Jordan Love to
play in Week two against the Colts despite a knee injury.
Forty nine Ers head coach Kyle Shanahansa's running back Christian
McCaffrey was going to be a limited participant today with
his achilles and calf injuries. Apparently in McCaffrey's mentality is
(34:29):
that he's going to play, but the NFL Network reports
that his chances are really a long shot that he's
going to play. In Minnesota. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson off
the injury report never really was on it, but he
will start Sunday against the Raiders. Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson
limited that practice today with his calf injury as well.
In the WNBA, the Aces defeated the Fever eighty six
to seventy five. Asia Wilson ended with twenty seven points
(34:51):
and twelve rebounds. She also broke the single season w
NBA scoring record. I think she's at nine hundred and
fifty six points. The record was set by Jewel Lloyd
of the Storm last year with nine hundred and thirty nine,
So we know that she has more than nine forty
for sure. But I just didn't do all the math
because then nobody tells me what the mouth is Chalen
(35:12):
Clark struggled from the field six of twenty two, one
of ten from the three point line, sixteen points and
six assists in the loss.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
Back to you guys, thank you mind. It is fuzzy math, Yes,
it is fuzzy Math.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
The Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmon, Lockrom the tyreck
dot Com Studios Coming up next, an apology we've been
waiting for, but is it enough? That's next right here,
Jason and Mike Fox.
Speaker 2 (35:36):

He's wearing a Tears for Fears shirt.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
That's right, baby.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
He jacked up about I hope that costs you like
fifty bucks to buy much fifty bucks free ninety nine.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
I was gonna say four ninety nine. Maybe you got
the guy down to five hours into parking.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
Now he just said free ninety nine. Yeah, Ricky bought
it for me.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Free. Great, great, that's great people to get fired from Fox?
Whoa alexho Ricky?
Speaker 3 (36:16):
Alright, Jason, you said, I'm doing the applications for Mike's replacement.
If you fire me, who's doing that? As Montial do him?
She's not even there.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
It doesn't matter, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
I think she's gonna throw them out and just sit
in my seat.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
So you could hire any of these qualified people that
are great or I'm here already. Okay, great, let's go go,
let's go streamline processes. We got an apology of sorts
today from Tyreek Hill. Look the the video that came
out from Sunday his arrest getting pulled over, and he
addressed it and talked about everything that transpired when he
(36:56):
got pulled over for speeding, through him getting put on
the side walk and then kicked to get down on
the ground. And look, we talked about this a few
days ago and we said, listen, Tyreek's got to own
the beginning of it. When the cops tell you to
roll the window down, you gotta roll the window down, right,
You have to obey the cops.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
Once they drag him and go physically into the car,
that's when everything kind of shifts. Yeah, right, I think
we can be intellectually honest in this discussion to say
there's two very distinct parts to me.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Oh yeah, Look, Tyreek's got to own the beginning of
it and the cops have to own the end of it.
When he's in cuffs on the street, Okay, this is
when you bet. This is when you don't need to
continue to be rate and hit him.
Speaker 4 (37:35):
That's what the team made and everything else that was
going on, all the peripheral stuff. You don't need that
it was done right.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
But here's Tyreek addressing it today, and he does take
responsibility for what happened at the same time talking about
how everything ended.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
Take a look.
Speaker 6 (37:50):
I could have been better, you know, I could have
let on my window, you know, in that instant. But
does that give them the right to literally beat the
dog out of me? Absolutely not now.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
And he went on and talked at length about it,
and that's a pretty good summation of what happened. I
could have been better, But does that give them the
right to beat me like a dog? No, it doesn't,
And that's a pretty good that's a pretty good way
to own I could have done this. I should have
rolled my window down. But this is where I'm at
with this now, is that you know, you know, what
I'd like him to apologize for is for, hey, remember
(38:22):
you were pulled over because you were doing over sixty
in a forty on a surface street.
Speaker 5 (38:27):
Right.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
This wasn't Hey, you're a few miles over the speed
limit on the freeway. This is when people are out
all over the place and you're going over twenty miles
over the speed limit. You see people like that all
the time when you go you blank blank, like when
you call it, you see somebody driving in a neighborhood
and they're going way too fast.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
And stop signs don't exist.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Yeah, like that's kind of what this was. Right, he
wasn't going one hundred hundred and twenty miles an hour.
He was going over twenty miles over the speed limit.
And that's a thing when you're driving on surface streets,
you're driving around the stadium where people are walking, there
is traffic everywhere. People are stepping off the curb. They're
not we're not too far moved from hence. Right, So
(39:06):
that's the one thing I'd like to say is, oh, yeah,
I shouldn't have been messing around driving that fast. That's
one thing, because that's the reason why he got pulled
over like police saw him doing, is that we got
to get this guy over because this is dangerous. If
you're doing it, you get pulled over. So let's just
you know, from that. I like that he owned that
part of it and said, hey, listen, I could have
done better. Does the police to right to be me?
(39:26):
But hey, at the same time, yeah, I shouldn't have
been driving like that.
Speaker 5 (39:30):
I was.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
I was reckless and that's the whole reason I got
pulled over. And yet that gets lost in this is
that that's the that's another real part of the genesis
of it. What could have what could happen to someone
when you're driving that.
Speaker 4 (39:40):
Now, obviously the story that needs to be firmed up
and however that happens was that it was an approximation
of his speed, right that he wasn't clock doing sixty
or sixty two or whatever, it becomes an approximation. So
that's where you know, some would argue, it's like, wow,
could you tell like you're on a street, you've got
(40:05):
a flow of traffic. If that's your job and you're
normally on a radar gun, I think you can estimate
that the speed is over. Now in a court of law,
you know, as we go whittle it down, does that
get you know, legislated down to something of a minor offense.
Whereas if it was clocked as twenty miles an hour
over the speed limit in that space, Yeah, that's actually
(40:28):
a pretty big deal, right, Like they start to get
the multiplier effect, so recognizing you know, the potential dangers
there in a crowded environment, because look how quickly people
descended to be able to chronicle every minute and every
second of that altercation. So all of that to say,
(40:49):
like it did two wrongs in this and certainly for
the police officers will be a big investigation. We did
see the initial backing of the officers from the local
police force. We'll see how much changes in the investigation
now that you've got full body camera video and everything else.
(41:09):
But Tyreek Hill, the fact that he said anything at
all and owned up to part of it, give him
credit for that. Yeah, and those that wanted to use
it as an excuse to bring up everything else Tyreek
Hill's done.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
That's got nothing to do with this case. That's this one.
You cannot like the guy for the guy. It's not
