You're listening to Fox Sports.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Radio greeting, So welcome in an hour two of the program.
Here on a beautiful Tuesday night, it's travel night across
the globe. Yeah, I saw SoCs of Statistics telling me
that starting at about two o'clock this afternoon, regardless of
your time zone, God's time zone also known as planks
time zone, all of those things that you know, you'd
(00:48):
find yourself stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. So keep calm,
you'll get where you're going, and just make sure your
tires are ready for the for the road ahead. Turn
it up a little bit, get mad at Chris or
I as we take you through a wonderful sporting evening,
because then you'll get to your destination. You'll be calm,
(01:08):
collected and ready to celebrate your holiday. Holiday holiday as
we broadcast live from the Tirack dot com studios. Tyrac
dot com will help you get there an unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road has a protection over ten
thousand recommended installers tyrac dot com. The way tire buying
should be already alluded to him and for Jason Smith
tonight our buddy Chris Plank. You hear him with Arnie
(01:31):
Spanier on Sunday Night breaking down everything NFL, some college foosball,
and whatever else is creeping around working with the Sooners.
Coming off of that huge win, I was feeling very
happy for you because I know it was a tough
year and to the point where they were putting out
you know, PSA is going, Hey, our fans aren't used
to this. That was one of the greatest statements ever. Yeah, Hey, dude,
(01:56):
we kind of stink and it's been a rough year.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
You don't have turnovers and offenses this inept you know,
fire coordinators in season. But I firmly stand in that
corner that I think Brent Vinible' is gonna win a
lot of games at Oklahoma. That was really cool. I've
never been a part of that before. A field storming
so it was. It was neat to be a part of,
and listen, college football's rankings tonight didn't really punish Alabama
too terribly much for that. It keeps them very much
(02:21):
alive in the playoff chase. But holy smoke, said, Oklahoma,
do one do a number on them Saturday night?
Speaker 3 (02:27):
What kind of shoes were you wearing when you're wearing
sensible shoes? Maybe something that's quasi dressy, quasi athletic. In
case you do, you say, do dodge acoming student.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
This will probably sound a little bit braggadocious, Mike, but
we get Jordan's oh look at you.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
So me being someone who doesn't understand like the rules
of the noncreasing and things like that, I basically just
wear them for work and people get mad at me
because I do things like, I don't know, walk in
them and been down there. You know that they you're
supposed to do in tennis shoes. So yeah, it's a
it's not a big deal to me. I have the
same pair I've won for like three years, and the
(03:08):
only time I change is weather, and then I wear
my very obnoxious rubber boots to annoy everybody.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
There. You go, I gave up on them, Audified. Yeah.
I gave up on them a long time ago, though, Chris,
because the boots are the Jordan's, because my like in
Nike in general, because they my feet are wide. I'm Flintstone.
Oh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. It's like, you know,
I'm not walking around like I'm sideshow Bob because I've
got to wear something three sizes larger. Like when I
(03:35):
was a kid, my grandma would buy me larger clothes
so it would make me look like I was taller
or bigger. Yeah no, no, no, I actually need those now.
I need the extra width in my shoes and go, hey,
good luck, fine in a hat that fits my head
right now, dude, they'd make these for these peanut heads.
We listen, We're not here to complain about my wardrobe tonight,
but you is what it is, Mike. We are, after all,
(03:56):
primarily audio. So you can picture me sitting here in
a tuxedo right now. The Dodgers might be doing that
very thing in celebration ahead of a holiday. Let's go
to Isaac lowancrowd.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
He's got some breaking news, breaking news from Fox Sports.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Multiple outlets have just reported that the world champion Los
Angeles Dodgers have agreed to a five year, one hundred
and eighty two million dollars deal with left handed pitcher
Blake Snell, two time Cy Young Award winner in twenty
eighteen and twenty twenty three, most recently of the San
Francisco Giants last year. Perhaps that's why they charged the
(04:38):
extra twenty five cents.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
See there it is at Isaac Lohan crowd where you
find him. Thanks for that. There you go. Well that's
where we start. Five years, one eighty two. How many
optouts are there? Yeah? Good question? Well are in this?
Speaker 6 (04:56):
No?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Because look, I don't mean to be that guy, but
I'll be that guy. Hell, I've been that guy before.
Blake Snell is a guy that generally when he needs
a new contract, we get a list effort, we get
a cy Young worthy effort when he's able to say, well,
I don't need that second year on that deal or
that third year on a deal, and now you sign
a five year deal. Now they need starters, no question
(05:18):
about it. Coming out of this last year, you can
never have enough. Seemingly in Dodger Land, I still had
questions about the training staff and the developmental side of things.
Hell do you lose that many pitchers. It's kind of
like the Ravens and Chargers. For years, I kept saying, hey,
go buy a couple of those sage brushes from Kyrie
Irving and take them into the locker room because you're
(05:39):
withsing way too many games for starters. But with Snell,
it's been a guy that has been fantastic when the
money is literally on the line. Dodgers, what was it,
seventeen different starters last year and masterful bullpen work throughout
they got the trial by fire August into September and
(05:59):
everything worked tother not to mention a massive payroll full
of superstars, even with injured superstars eighty percent of them,
still better than most lineups White Sox. Sorry, I'm still
reeling from my I'm wearing a White Sox so much
like a dope today. One hundred and twenty one losses
and it ain't getting any better, I can tell you that.
(06:19):
But all that to say, Chris is that you know,
for Blake Snell, you take your shot left hander clearly
when he's on his game, few better and you know
how to in theory manage through whatever circumstances arise, and
at least for year one, you know you're getting that
big effort.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Does this in any way raise the concern about Walker
Buehler not being back, Yeah, because certainly I understand that
he's battled injuries and I'm sure someone will drop a
bag on him. And I don't care if Jack Flairty
goes somewhere else. But I don't know, man, I'd like
(07:00):
to see Walker Bueller back in Dodger Blue next year.
But I wonder if this is an indication that they're
headed in a different I can't fathom that because right now,
if I understand my my Dodgers' rotation correctly, only Yamamoto
and Glass now are the only certainties. You know, you
got Consolin, who's trying to get healthy, Dustin May is
(07:21):
always hurt. You got guys out of the out of
the miners like Bobby Miller who looked, okay, Kershaw's a possibility.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
But I don't know.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but I wonder
what this means going forward for the future of Walker
Bueller in the Dodger uniform.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Well, I think some of that becomes the all right,
let's see what you what you're gonna get in the
open marketplace right, not to make the one to one corollary,
but kind of the Saquon Barkley world. All right, go
take a look and see what the matching is, et cetera.
Coming off of the big you know, close out of
the World Series and everything, certainly the marketplace should be strong.
(08:00):
You don't have a ton of starters out there, assuming
that that's you know, heading back to being a front,
front end starter for somebody. But given the injury history
and maybe you know, it's a little bit of a
tell of how much you know long term what you
can expect from him. Right, You've got you've got his medicals,
you know, sure, you know what the rule of gagement is. Uh.
(08:21):
And but again you know Snell being a lefty. You know,
lefties always carry the premium. Hell, I couldn't throw the
ball with any kind of velocity when I was younger,
and it was still you want to you want to
pitch right? Oh you're left handed, get out there and
do it.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Speaking of lefties, I wonder again I'm trying to figure
out which way to read into this. Is this an
indication that we might be waiting a little bit longer
for show Hey to hit the mound or maybe uh,
to get another lefty in there. It's sooner rather than later,
because it's inevitable, right that he's going to be either
a part of this rotation or I don't know, a
closers roll or something.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Yeah, we've we've profered the closing role on this show
and and really tried to perpetuate that. We were trying
to speak it into existence from Okay, so that was
that was your fault that I had that in my head. No,
that's the a that's that's that's certainly me because I
like chaos in between the white lines and the rest
of the world. I have a law and order uh
literally watching a lot of law and order, but my
(09:17):
dad was a policeman, all of that stuff. I'm all
about rules and duty and obligation, all that stuff inside
the white lines. I want chaos, you know, like when
we were talking about college, about rankings and everything else.
Same thing. I don't want guys getting hurt, but it
opens the door to chaos and opportunities and and showing
the intestinal fortitude of an organization, or in this case
(09:41):
with Walker Buehler, a guy saying I probably shouldn't get
the ball, but I want the ball, so I'm gonna
lie and cheat and steal and get myself onto the mound.
So all of those stories and the legend of Bueller.
But like starting pitching, you can never have enough, right.
It's like trying to find I don't know, five off
ouits of line men that can play together and stay
(10:02):
on a field together in college or professional football. It
doesn't happen with great regularity. So if you got one
that can give you consistent efforts, and nowadays Chris and man,
that's the other part. If I can get six innings
out of a guy consistently, I've won the damn lottery. Yeah,
you know, it's wild.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
As I was looking, I don't think this is right,
and it's MLB dot com, so there's no reason to
believe that it's not. And I get it, like you
just eloquently laid out, Mike Harmen. We're in a different era.
But do you know how many complete games that Blake Snell.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Has thrown in his career?
Speaker 4 (10:34):
I think it's one or two one, Yeah, and it
was last year when he only pitched, and when he
only started twenty games. Yeah, that's weird to sell to me.
That doesn't make sense for a high money starter right
in my I'm in my no, but that's just it.
In my estimation, I'm like, what are we doing?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
What are you doing? What are we doing?
Speaker 7 (10:49):
Five?
Speaker 3 (10:50):
What was it? Five? For one?
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Two?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
And I'm hoping to get him into the seventh?
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Yeah, exactly may if we're lucky. I mean, people, it's still.
The funny thing for me from the World Series is
Garrett Cole and he was Don't get me wrong, he
was great in that unfortunately decisive Game five for the Yankees,
but he was great. And yet we're hailing him like
he did something incredible and he looks like he just
ran a marathon and he barely threw over one hundred pitches.
(11:17):
He's like, look at this gutty effort. It's like, what
are you talking about? Man, It's like normal work, and
you go over there. Garrett Cole is just gas right now.
It's like, why he's through six? I mean, what are
we even doing right now? So count that up to
me being an old and wanting to get people off
my porch and off my lawn.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
But yeah, this one's a little bit.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
I mean, it's awesome for the Dodgers right to get
a good starting pitcher, a two time cy Young Award winner,
and this is the first nine figure deal of the
winner according to Jeff Passon. But you get Otani in
that mix with him, you're feeling a little bit better
about things.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Yeah, Janny Snell Glass now Yamamo no opt outs according
to John Palm Morosi. See that's that's pretty huge to me.
That's a little concerning to me, to be honest with you, though. Wow,
let's see Morosi also tweeting out our guy at John
Morosi leave out the age because mom said so. J
O N. M r Osi on Twitter, our friend saying,
(12:14):
making sure to note one hundred and twelve days earlier
this offseason, faster than he signed last year. Huh?
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Are we gonna have an active off season? In other words,
are we not going to wait until like two weeks
before the season to get the free agent market going
this year?
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Well? That is the question. How many of them are
still run by Scott.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Morris to wait until as long as they possibly can
to have everyone fighting against everyone and maximize the offer.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I mean, go back to what happened last year, right,
I mean Arizona? Who was it? Why is my brain
not firing? Here the starter who is an absolute disaster,
and they called him the worst signing ever in their
in their end of season people are people are screaming
(13:06):
at Swollen Dome to tell me how dumb I am
that I haven't had enough coffee this evening. But just
that idea of you wait, Montgomery, Jorn Montgomery, I had Dan.
I wanted to say Zimmerman, I was really dating myself.
There there you go. Uh So Montgomery's deal, you know,
he called the worst signing and was apologizing to fans
(13:27):
and everything else as he pitched to us. It's the
area of six plus and that's one of those If
I'm a Scott Boris client, I'm going, you know what,
this is now working against us a bit. We may,
we may you know, ultimately sign a bit bigger deal,
but you know, deals like that that go south are
going to hurt us that much more. Uh So, hopefully
(13:49):
it's an active free agency period. Hopefully it doesn't wait
until the last minute. And you know holiday gifts under
the tree, because now you can order a Blake Snell
Dodger jersey. How about that?
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Ooh, now, I'll add this as somebody who is a diehard,
lifelong Dodger fan. I do like the idea that immediately
they looked at a need and said, let's start addressing
this rather than waiting. Did they ever pay for him?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I don't know. What do you think, Mike. It seems
like that would be about the going rate. It's also
it's also funny money at this point, I guess you right,
especially if you're looking at a top end starter like
it's like when we do the quarterback thing for football.
It's like, don't get your your nose out of joint.
It's the going rate until someone says no, I will
(14:36):
not pay it. And for Blake Snell, like your printing money,
your printing money. We joked about the tours and the
trophy presentation. You got four plus million people coming through
what is it, eighty some odd percent of people that
came from Japan, you know, to the United States, found
their way to Dodger Stadium this last summer. I mean
(14:57):
all of those things, you know, to just say that,
unfortunately for a lot of Major League Baseball squads and
money is legitimately no object here, especially since you're able
to really do some fun things with kicking deferred monies.
For sure, Otani and the TV deals and all of this,
(15:20):
like it's you don't have to like it. I like
when there's super villains that you're trying to topple. Unfortunately,
we also know how those supervillains generally have to be toppled.
Things have to go wrong within and that's usually the
injury bug and even this year for the Dodgers, it
couldn't fill them.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
No, it's one of the you know, some people can
argue about injuries being an excuse. Dodgers easily could have
used that with their pitching staff, and it looked like
they might have to after what was that Game two
three with the Padres.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
When everybody was writing the death Knell articles. I don't
know what, well, but you know, here we are again.
This guy can't manage. These people shouldn't have their jobs.
And it was like, oh, they're the geniuses. Look what
they were able to navigate through. That's right.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
I'll ad this though on it as I just it's
reassuring whenever you see a team addressed in need. Absolutely,
but it's also for me, it's one of those to
where this leads to so many questions, is Snell Kershaw's replacement?
Is this because they can't afford Bueler. Does this mean
they're not confident with the young guys? So the recovery
of a Dustin May and class now. But I guess
in the end, Mike, I should just shut up and
(16:28):
be like, by God, they wouldn't got Blake Snell, a
guy who's been up pain in their backside for years
in the National League West, and even what he was
if he would have stayed in the game a little
bit longer in the twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Who knows right right that early exit always stands out.
But to your point, Chriz, all of those you know
you were like starting the seventies sitcom soap. All these
questions and more will be answered on the next episode
of soap. There you go, Billy Crystal role for folks
that want to get excitable and go back in the
(17:02):
TV time time capsules there. But I think when when
you look at it, yeah, it does raise a lot
of questions about the certainty of or uncertainty about injury comebacks.
The free agency of Bueler, I think maybe they're they're
thinking there's gonna be a team maybe in division or
a would be contender that just throws a giant bucket
(17:25):
of dollars at him, and they look at it and say,
all right, we know the history, we like him, we
love him. We got what we needed out of him.
We got a World Series Championship. Good luck, yep, exactly.
Let's go into the next one with a guy who,
when when right and when motivated, is a great arm out. Like,
look at all the caveats I have to do. Because
(17:45):
we've talked a lot about Blake snow Man. It's like,
look at the rest of his career. You've got Cy
Young years and whatever. It's kind of like Brett Saberhagen there,
I'm really aging myself now in the ages, right, Cy
Young Award winning season, eh, mid the next year comes
back the following year Cy Young Award season. So some
(18:05):
of that as you go through. But for the Dodgers,
a huge signing from Major League Baseball. Headlines are great
and if you like super villains, we've called him the
Evil Empire for what they've been building in the last
couple of years. The Death Star seemingly is complete. He's
Chris Blank in for Jason Smith coming up next. He's
gonna hate me because we're gonna be a little late
getting to him, but our guy Jason Cole stops by
(18:28):
the thirty third team. We're gonna get to ask him
what he's got in the Jets coaching and GM search,
what role he plays there. We'll continue, we'll do that next.
But first, when you're getting some holiday shopping done, no
question about it, whether it's food and getting your table

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 3 (19:27):
Welcome back in It's Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show
with Me Mike Carmon. Well Extended conversation. We got that
big breaking news Plank ordering himself a Blake Snell Dodgers
jersey for those just tuning in Snell five years one
eighty two. As the Dodgers address their starting rotation, I
(19:47):
know everybody going into emergency podcast form that cover the
Dodgers and Major League Baseball. Way, we've got news. I
was on my way to grandma's house, So how much
can I tap out? Fat fingering a telephone or maybe
going to the hotspot iPads and things of that nature.
(20:08):
Chaos ensues, but certainly another huge step forward for the
would be Dodgers juggernaut. As we sit here live from
the tirerac dot com studios watching some NBA Action Suns
with a one point lead over the Lakers a little
over eight minutes remaining in the third quarter. We've seen
(20:29):
some pretty big college basketball games tonight overtime Thriller's Top
ten teams, you had Duke in Kansas and some big
heavyweight blows coming out of that. So it's been a
fun run thus far. Chris Blank an action packed Tuesday
starting everybody's holiday week, and we.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Barely Jay Colt's coming up here in a bit. We've
barely touched on the NFL. Mike, This breaking news out
of baseball, as you mentioned, has everyone in emergency podcast mode.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
But we got so much to dip into in the
National Football League.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
It's it's like we've just hit the appetizer, but yet
we really haven't hit the good appetizers yet because there
is so much meat on that bone from the NFL
over the last forty eight hours.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Well, that's just it. There's so much out there, all
the marquee franchises, some swirling down the proverbial toilet with
us to talk about it all. It's our guy. Everybody
gets your bounce on his new theme song. It's our buddy,
Jason Cole. He's part of the brain trust getting ready
(21:34):
to fix the Jets at thirty thirteen at Jason Cole
sixty two on Twitter. The author of many books. As
you get to your holiday shop and go to Amazon,
give it a search, go buy one or five. How
you doing, Jay Cole?
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Oh my god, this is my new inter music.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Huh oh, you get the boots on and get a
little dance share off Woody Johnson taking over the running
the Jets right into the ground. So uh so, did
you write like a thirty five page treatise for these
guys as they get ready to engage Woody Johnson or what.
Speaker 6 (22:16):
Try try and decide whether you know what you're doing
or not.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
One says, do you think you know what you're doing?
And the other one says, you really have realized you don't.
And then it's like the red or the blue pill or.
Speaker 6 (22:35):
Basically yes, but that's exactly what it is. This is fine.
I mean, you need to have some advisors, and this
is you get some experts. Basically, what he has to
just understand he needs to get out of the way,
just needs to get out of the way and let
(22:57):
somebody else really manage the team. But the problem is
that when you spend you know, a billion dollars and
spend all the money they've spent over the years on
that team, guys like to drive the car, They like
to have the keys and some of the And I
will say this, what are Johnson compared to some of
(23:17):
the things I've been hearing the last week or so
about Mark Davis in Las Vegas. Man, It's I never
would have thought I would think that Woody would be sensible.
But based on what I'm hearing about Mark Davis, what
he's getting closer to sensible?
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Well, there you go for you like team me up
as a passionate lifelong Raider fan, Jason, Well, I mean,
at least we're starting to see people buy into this thing,
but he's still going to maintain control. And just how
how big of a disaster is it in your mind?
Speaker 6 (23:53):
I mean, he walked into it evidently a while ago.
He walked into the team after again, into the locker
room after a game they had that they had one
and I don't have all the particulars on this. I
know the game and I know who the coaches were involved,
but they had won the game on the road and
a thrilling victory. He started screaming at the coaches about
(24:19):
clock Management's like, you know, and in front of the players,
dressing down the coach. It's like, dude, you have no
clue what you're doing. You have just no idea what
you're doing about whether you do that kind of stuff
in front of the players after a victory, yeah, I mean,
(24:41):
just it's it's horrendous. That's one, you know, the week
by week decisions. The other one that I hear from
him is the number of people that he listens to
and it's like that's the best advice he's got ever.
It's like he listens to somebody and we're not talking
(25:01):
about like experts in the field. We're talking about like,
you know, low level agents. So he has conversations and
we'll and we'll have conversations with him for four straight
nights at you know, and they will come in and say,
oh my god, this is the most brilliant idea I've
ever had an agents, Like, I've never run a team.
(25:24):
I you know, I just have suggestions, and that's what
he's thinking to himself. So I just it. Really it
defies any kind of logic or any kind of straight
line approach to how you learn what you're doing. But
he controls the keys to one of the greatest brands
(25:46):
in sports history. Because despite the fact that your team
has finished third place or worse, which is hard in
fourteen divisions, but third place are worse in seventeen of
the past twenty one, you remain a diehard Raater fan,
don't you. And do you ever question yourself as to
why you're doing this to yourself?
Speaker 3 (26:06):
My wife does quite a bit. She says, why do
you do this to yourself, like I have no idea
it do.
Speaker 7 (26:12):
It's ingredible, but whether it's not, whether it's me or
your wife questioning you, the real question is do you
ask yourself and do you actually come up with an answer?
Speaker 6 (26:23):
Like there's a deep, that's great Calfordian thing going on here.
Do you actually consider why you're doing this to yourself?
Speaker 4 (26:31):
Gosh, no, I don't. I must be a sucker for
pain or something. I've even Jason no Live. I've got
to the point where I watch the Saints and I
miss Derek Carr. So that shows you how bad it's
been for me as a Raiders fan. He's been pretty
good in the last few weeks. But yeah, it's just
not good. It's just not good. I don't think it's
going to get good. I don't know if cam Ward
or should or Sanders is going to fix it. I
(26:52):
don't know if Antonio pears. You feel like it's something
that has to come from the top, if it's going
to get any better.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
For they've been behind by double digits in every semnle
game and lost what They've lost their two and nine
Now they've lost seven of those times yeah bye, and
seven of the nine losses by double digits. He's just
looking to go this is this is a cluster. This
(27:20):
is just absolutely a cluster, and they have no idea
how to get out of it. They've gotten worse, And granted,
the quarterback situation is what it is. They thought they
were going to get pedics. They got jumped and didn't
expect that. They weren't ready for it. That's put them
behind by another year. But when I look at this
division and you say, all right, Denver has Sean Payton
(27:40):
and bow Nicks. The Chargers are looking pretty good with
Herbert and Harbaugh, and the Chiefs are the Chiefs R.
Like they're none of these teams are going away anytime soon.
And if bo Nicks really actually is good, how long
before the Raiders sniffed the playoffs?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Yeah it's gonna be a minute. Oh, let's let's move
to my team.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
Cole, your quarterback looks a lot better last week.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Yeah quarter Yeah? No, no, that that OC and Caleb
did whatever the equation is there, and Caleb's laughing about it.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Uh get you mean, like, here's here's the thing that
these really important things. Yeah, block people, Yeah, and get
the ball out of your hand.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Yeah, run door, run door itself. Get the ball out
of your hand. Uh, and reminder, you're not at USC
look at the logo on the jersey you're wearing, and
remember that these guys can all chase you down.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
This is I know that. I know the football is
very complicated sport, but some things about it not that complicated. Yeah,
don't hold the ball for like thirty seconds. You're gonna
you're gonna get killed if you do that event they're
going to catch you and they're going to kill you.
It's just it's just not healthy for you. So yeah,
(29:04):
get the ball out of your hands. This is this
is not science anyways. But I love that. I love
them opening on Thursday. I think that'll be a fun game,
certainly better than the than the Giants and the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Yeah, but how quickly? I mean, am I in the bag?
If I if I do an Eberflu's drinking game?
Speaker 6 (29:25):
How many times eberflu? What what is the trigger for
the drinking?
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Well, I mean, look, we're gonna throw challenge flags, We're
going to Yeah, I think a lot of it really
comes to his postgame comments. Is really where I.
Speaker 6 (29:42):
Place if you play the Eberflus drinking game and then
you're having family over for dinner or you're doing something
with your family or anything like that. Doesn't that does
that become dangerous?
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Yeah? No exactly, But it isn't. Thanksgiving supposed to be
about truth.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
There'll be a lot of truth telling after the game,
coming to Jesus. I can't believe I cheered for the
same stuff like.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
That in my life, Jason's life, Mike's life. We just
cheer for terrible football teas. Hey, hey, let me put Jason.
I know we're running out of time, but are you
They're ten and one and they're still winning games and
they're going to beat the Raiders on Friday.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
They're gonna be eleven one. But I mean, is there.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
Any cause for concern you have right now with how
the Chiefs are winning?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Or do we just hey, they're winning, leave.
Speaker 6 (30:37):
Them alone, they're winning, leave them alone. They're bored. Yeah, Yeah,
they're just bored. That's that's how I look at the
Chiefs right now. It's the one back to back titles.
You've been a contender for six seven years now, a
serious contender for titles. This this regular season thing is
(31:00):
not that big a challenge, Like, was there ever a
moment in that game, after even after Carolina tied it up,
where you thought there was any hope that Carolina was winning.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
But it was fun, you know for them.
Speaker 6 (31:13):
Yeah, No, it was great. It was a great theater.
And then they were like, oh, we need to win now,
all I thinks, let me, let me run downfield and
we'll just still get We'll still get this, get the
shield goal done, and then we're going to go home.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Now.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
I think that Patrick Mahomes is they're playing to the
level of their opponents right now, and they ran a
little bit into a buzzsaw. Buffalo wanted them a little
bit worse. I mean, even Josh Allen, as much as
you tried to say, oh, it was just another game,
like yeah, yeah, sure, yes, sure Josh, just another gay, yes,
(31:45):
another just another game as you're trying to chase that
m VP down.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
No.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
I I think that there and Cruise Control, they play.
They play when they have to. They get lead, They
milt games, they want to run the ball and they
just you know, they're they're content to let Kareem hunt,
you know, get yards and when Pataco comes back, like
to Jaco, get b Ryan and you know, just play
(32:12):
one score games because they know their defense is good
enough and they're going to wait until it's playoff playoff
time to really really turn it up. And I don't
know if that's that good thing or a bad thing.
You know, some people, you know will play the everybody
will play the results at the end and say, okay,
if they lose in the playoffs because they didn't have
the intensity and you know, the edge, ID just argue
(32:38):
this is it's just hard to maintain that kind of
edge that long. I mean, I talked to you guys
who were in the Dolphins after they went back in
the second year of the back to back, after they
went perfect in seventy two and then came back and
won the title in seventy three, and it was their
third straight year going to the Super Bowl. They went
fourteen and two, and there were a lot of close
games in there, but they said, look, we knew we
(32:59):
were a better football That was our part, you know,
even though we lost a couple of games along with
the way, we knew what we needed to do to
win games that season. So they could throttle it down
a little bit and not have to put as much
stress during the season. And that's just how the Chiefs
are playing.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
There you go at my signal unleash hell because remember
when teams used to throttle it down Peyton Manning and
the Colts, he usually didn't end well, no, no, that
trend so yeah, yeah, but I mean again again, if
it doesn't, if they lose in the playoffs, we will
(33:35):
blame it on the fact that they weren't playing with
an edge.
Speaker 6 (33:39):
And I think that that's that's actually fair to say.
It's it's fair to say that, but I also say
it's really hard to maintain that edge for that long.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
No, that's were doing four hours a night here at
Fox Sports Radio, and certainly for that no one.
Speaker 6 (33:54):
No one has has edge like Chris playing. There's no
up to especially after you're having to drink Johnny Walker
before the Chiefs raiders.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Man, that's right, La on Friday, that's right, old bottle. Yeah,
may old bottle. I'm gonna be at Baton Rouge.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
So yeah, there you go, double it down at Jason
Gold sixty two where you find them thirty.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
Thirty Friday comes. Let's see you later.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
We love you, see you, buddy, Thanks for hagging out
with us. There's what he's round up. Didn't want to
cut him off. I mean, we could do this all
night play word Association, but now it's hard to do
that with our guy, Isaac lowind crowd because it's been
a busy day in the sporting universe.
Speaker 5 (34:33):
Hey buddy, you have some unexpected busyness from the Hot
Stove League in Major League Baseball, because multiple outlets reported
a short time ago that the world champion Los Angeles
Dodgers have agreed to a five year, one hundred and
eighty two million deal a one hundred and eighty two
million dollar deal with two times Cy Young Award winner
Blake Snell. Snell spent last season with the San Francisco Giants,
(34:57):
but opted out of the second year of his deal
with them earlier this month. Among the comments on social
media at Chris I Zid's or at Chris is it.
Maybe that's better than oh, Chris I Zid, who commented, quote,
just give him the trophy for next season, might as
well sign Soto next unquote.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
They're probably working on it.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
Fourth stead of college football playoff rankings were revealed on
Tuesday night. Top four stayed the same, Oregon number one,
followed by Ohio State, Texas and Penn State, Notre Dame
moved up to number five, Indiana dropped from fifth to tenth.
One NBA Cup game going on right now in Phoenix,
where the Suns leave the Los Angeles Lakers eighty eight
to seventy four with three minutes left in the third.
(35:43):
They've outscored the Lakers twenty six to fourteen.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
In the period.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
Earlier, the San Antonio Spurs won at Utah one twenty
eight to one, fifteen by thirty four from Victor Webbin Yama.
And in college football, number one Kansas a short time
ago prevailed over eleventh rank Duke seventy five seventy two
as Duke's Con Knipple missed the game tying three pointer
in and out at the buzzer.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Did everybody churning yell can like they were shatner? You
know me?
Speaker 6 (36:13):
So?
Speaker 7 (36:14):
Well?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Oh nice, A big joke.
Speaker 4 (36:16):
No.
Speaker 5 (36:17):
I actually went back to try and find the audio
of that, and you know what, I kicked myself because
I realized that you would have gotten the reference, and
so many other people out there would have gotten the
reference too. So I'll just recreate it again.
Speaker 3 (36:31):
Come nicely doing. You did it better than I did.
On No, you're the best at Isaac Low and Kron
Kindred Spirits, No question about it. He's Chris Blank in
for Jason Smith. Jason Smith, YEO with me Mike Carmon
here from the tirerac dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios
and coming up, there are things we've come to expect
at Thanksgiving. Well, we want to remind you that experimentation
(36:56):
may become a problem in your homes. We give you
that next on Fox.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
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 3 (37:13):
Coming up in ten minutes from now, we'll get back
into the world of the NFL through the Dallas Cowboys
and some the latest lunacy from Jerry Jones. Welcome back
in Mike Harmon alongside Chris Blank No Jason Smith. Tonight
off for the holiday holiday holiday back on Monday, we'll
be back in full effect. Chris and Arnie Span your
(37:34):
in for us tomorrow. I thank you in advance, and
I thank you for today. I appreciate you. Yeah, man,
good to hang, always good to chop it up, Always
good to have you in the mix. With us part
of the extended family that we have here on the show.
And Chris, I mean, you have expectations on Thanksgiving, right,
you know you're gonna see the lions, You're gonna see
the cowboys. You're probably going to gluttonize not ones, not twice,
(37:59):
but rice on various food stuffs, and you're gonna be
salty if something's missing from the table. Right, yeah, sure,
absolutely right, there's just those expectations. Right. Maybe maybe it's
it's grandma's, this, mom's, that wife, girlfriend, you know, all
of those things. You know, whoever you are out there,
(38:20):
you know you're you're thinking of that one thing that's
got to be on the table. And part of the equation.
Don't worry, we'll get to the MVP voting off a
survey that we saw a little bit earlier. But there
there's expectations and that things are going to be done
in a certain manner. Well, this was brought to my
attention earlier of well, when things go wrong because you
(38:45):
decided to don't fair mental damn Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving? How you
like that? Don't experiment on Thanksgiving? That's right, you do
it on your own time. You want to get a
recipe off the internet. You want to get all crazy
(39:08):
and add extra layers to things because you saw it
on the Food Network, or you watch some TikTok chef
have at it. That woman was not having it, and
I think that's probably stands for a lot of households
across America. I want my staples. Give me my turkey,
maybe dry, give me my turkey, Give me the overly
buttered mashed potatoes to become a staple. Give me my
(39:30):
whatever version of stuffing. You got some yams, some russels, sprouts,
green bean castle, whatever it may be. You just have
these expectations of what they're and then all of a sudden,
it's like, you know what today this year, I decided
to take a spin on this.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
I laughed so hard when I saw that, because I've
got I've got a fifth to sixteen year old daughter, now,
who that's her thing. She sees something on like Instagram
or TikTok, and she's gonna try to do It's pretty good,
little chef, But it's one of those things where if
you try to mess with how mom or grandma does
it and put your own little spin on it, Mike
(40:07):
get end up in big trouble around here, big.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Trouble around here.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Don't experiment on Thanksgiving that it goes for Christmas and Easter,
two very important eating holidays.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
No, there's no question about it, right. You just have
your expectations of what the menu is going to look
like traditions, that's right, right. I listened to my iHeart
Broadway Channel, one of the many things you can get
on the iHeartRadio app. I sell this app like nobody
else's business. Chris Plank between the twenty four hours a
day we give you at Fox Sports Radio, all the podcasts,
now the Music channel. When I get a music going,
(40:40):
it's the Broadway Channel. And tradition from Fiddler on the
Roof we'll find its way into my rotation. There are
things that we come to expect in this life, and
when they get pushed aside while we lose our minds
and certainly our food stuff's, our beverages and our football
on foot on Thanksgiving is things we just have to have.
(41:02):
And messing with mac and cheese, man, why are you
messing with mac and cheese? Lesson learned, Yes, screw it up.
This was something that had all sorts of eggs to it.
Now I really want to see that recipe, but you
want to talk about someone who had been banished and
exiled for the rest of that holiday. Wait. I guess
that's a more interesting conversation than some of the others
(41:22):
that'll get people fighting this year. He's Chris, I'm Mike.
Mike McCarthy next on Fox

You're listening to Fox Sports.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Radio greeting, So welcome in an hour two of the program.
Here on a beautiful Tuesday night, it's travel night across
the globe. Yeah, I saw SoCs of Statistics telling me
that starting at about two o'clock this afternoon, regardless of
your time zone, God's time zone also known as planks
time zone, all of those things that you know, you'd
(00:48):
find yourself stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. So keep calm,
you'll get where you're going, and just make sure your
tires are ready for the for the road ahead. Turn
it up a little bit, get mad at Chris or
I as we take you through a wonderful sporting evening,
because then you'll get to your destination. You'll be calm,
(01:08):
collected and ready to celebrate your holiday. Holiday holiday as
we broadcast live from the Tirack dot com studios. Tyrac
dot com will help you get there an unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road has a protection over ten
thousand recommended installers tyrac dot com. The way tire buying
should be already alluded to him and for Jason Smith
tonight our buddy Chris Plank. You hear him with Arnie
(01:31):
Spanier on Sunday Night breaking down everything NFL, some college foosball,
and whatever else is creeping around working with the Sooners.
Coming off of that huge win, I was feeling very
happy for you because I know it was a tough
year and to the point where they were putting out
you know, PSA is going, Hey, our fans aren't used
to this. That was one of the greatest statements ever. Yeah, Hey, dude,
(01:56):
we kind of stink and it's been a rough year.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
You don't have turnovers and offenses this inept you know,
fire coordinators in season. But I firmly stand in that
corner that I think Brent Vinible' is gonna win a
lot of games at Oklahoma. That was really cool. I've
never been a part of that before. A field storming
so it was. It was neat to be a part of,
and listen, college football's rankings tonight didn't really punish Alabama
too terribly much for that. It keeps them very much
(02:21):
alive in the playoff chase. But holy smoke, said, Oklahoma,
do one do a number on them Saturday night?
Speaker 3 (02:27):
What kind of shoes were you wearing when you're wearing
sensible shoes? Maybe something that's quasi dressy, quasi athletic. In
case you do, you say, do dodge acoming student.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
This will probably sound a little bit braggadocious, Mike, but
we get Jordan's oh look at you.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
So me being someone who doesn't understand like the rules
of the noncreasing and things like that, I basically just
wear them for work and people get mad at me
because I do things like, I don't know, walk in
them and been down there. You know that they you're
supposed to do in tennis shoes. So yeah, it's a
it's not a big deal to me. I have the
same pair I've won for like three years, and the
(03:08):
only time I change is weather, and then I wear
my very obnoxious rubber boots to annoy everybody.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
There. You go, I gave up on them, Audified. Yeah.
I gave up on them a long time ago, though, Chris,
because the boots are the Jordan's, because my like in
Nike in general, because they my feet are wide. I'm Flintstone.
Oh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. It's like, you know,
I'm not walking around like I'm sideshow Bob because I've
got to wear something three sizes larger. Like when I
(03:35):
was a kid, my grandma would buy me larger clothes
so it would make me look like I was taller
or bigger. Yeah no, no, no, I actually need those now.
I need the extra width in my shoes and go, hey,
good luck, fine in a hat that fits my head
right now, dude, they'd make these for these peanut heads.
We listen, We're not here to complain about my wardrobe tonight,
but you is what it is, Mike. We are, after all,
(03:56):
primarily audio. So you can picture me sitting here in
a tuxedo right now. The Dodgers might be doing that
very thing in celebration ahead of a holiday. Let's go
to Isaac lowancrowd.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
He's got some breaking news, breaking news from Fox Sports.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Multiple outlets have just reported that the world champion Los
Angeles Dodgers have agreed to a five year, one hundred
and eighty two million dollars deal with left handed pitcher
Blake Snell, two time Cy Young Award winner in twenty
eighteen and twenty twenty three, most recently of the San
Francisco Giants last year. Perhaps that's why they charged the
(04:38):
extra twenty five cents.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
See there it is at Isaac Lohan crowd where you
find him. Thanks for that. There you go. Well that's
where we start. Five years, one eighty two. How many
optouts are there? Yeah? Good question? Well are in this?
Speaker 6 (04:56):
No?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Because look, I don't mean to be that guy, but
I'll be that guy. Hell, I've been that guy before.
Blake Snell is a guy that generally when he needs
a new contract, we get a list effort, we get
a cy Young worthy effort when he's able to say, well,
I don't need that second year on that deal or
that third year on a deal, and now you sign
a five year deal. Now they need starters, no question
(05:18):
about it. Coming out of this last year, you can
never have enough. Seemingly in Dodger Land, I still had
questions about the training staff and the developmental side of things.
Hell do you lose that many pitchers. It's kind of
like the Ravens and Chargers. For years, I kept saying, hey,
go buy a couple of those sage brushes from Kyrie
Irving and take them into the locker room because you're
(05:39):
withsing way too many games for starters. But with Snell,
it's been a guy that has been fantastic when the
money is literally on the line. Dodgers, what was it,
seventeen different starters last year and masterful bullpen work throughout
they got the trial by fire August into September and
(05:59):
everything worked tother not to mention a massive payroll full
of superstars, even with injured superstars eighty percent of them,
still better than most lineups White Sox. Sorry, I'm still
reeling from my I'm wearing a White Sox so much
like a dope today. One hundred and twenty one losses
and it ain't getting any better, I can tell you that.
(06:19):
But all that to say, Chris is that you know,
for Blake Snell, you take your shot left hander clearly
when he's on his game, few better and you know
how to in theory manage through whatever circumstances arise, and
at least for year one, you know you're getting that
big effort.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Does this in any way raise the concern about Walker
Buehler not being back, Yeah, because certainly I understand that
he's battled injuries and I'm sure someone will drop a
bag on him. And I don't care if Jack Flairty
goes somewhere else. But I don't know, man, I'd like
(07:00):
to see Walker Bueller back in Dodger Blue next year.
But I wonder if this is an indication that they're
headed in a different I can't fathom that because right now,
if I understand my my Dodgers' rotation correctly, only Yamamoto
and Glass now are the only certainties. You know, you
got Consolin, who's trying to get healthy, Dustin May is
(07:21):
always hurt. You got guys out of the out of
the miners like Bobby Miller who looked, okay, Kershaw's a possibility.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
But I don't know.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but I wonder
what this means going forward for the future of Walker
Bueller in the Dodger uniform.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Well, I think some of that becomes the all right,
let's see what you what you're gonna get in the
open marketplace right, not to make the one to one corollary,
but kind of the Saquon Barkley world. All right, go
take a look and see what the matching is, et cetera.
Coming off of the big you know, close out of
the World Series and everything, certainly the marketplace should be strong.
(08:00):
You don't have a ton of starters out there, assuming
that that's you know, heading back to being a front,
front end starter for somebody. But given the injury history
and maybe you know, it's a little bit of a
tell of how much you know long term what you
can expect from him. Right, You've got you've got his medicals,
you know, sure, you know what the rule of gagement is. Uh.
(08:21):
And but again you know Snell being a lefty. You know,
lefties always carry the premium. Hell, I couldn't throw the
ball with any kind of velocity when I was younger,
and it was still you want to you want to
pitch right? Oh you're left handed, get out there and
do it.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Speaking of lefties, I wonder again I'm trying to figure
out which way to read into this. Is this an
indication that we might be waiting a little bit longer
for show Hey to hit the mound or maybe uh,
to get another lefty in there. It's sooner rather than later,
because it's inevitable, right that he's going to be either
a part of this rotation or I don't know, a
closers roll or something.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Yeah, we've we've profered the closing role on this show
and and really tried to perpetuate that. We were trying
to speak it into existence from Okay, so that was
that was your fault that I had that in my head. No,
that's the a that's that's that's certainly me because I
like chaos in between the white lines and the rest
of the world. I have a law and order uh
literally watching a lot of law and order, but my
(09:17):
dad was a policeman, all of that stuff. I'm all
about rules and duty and obligation, all that stuff inside
the white lines. I want chaos, you know, like when
we were talking about college, about rankings and everything else.
Same thing. I don't want guys getting hurt, but it
opens the door to chaos and opportunities and and showing
the intestinal fortitude of an organization, or in this case
(09:41):
with Walker Buehler, a guy saying I probably shouldn't get
the ball, but I want the ball, so I'm gonna
lie and cheat and steal and get myself onto the mound.
So all of those stories and the legend of Bueller.
But like starting pitching, you can never have enough, right.
It's like trying to find I don't know, five off
ouits of line men that can play together and stay
(10:02):
on a field together in college or professional football. It
doesn't happen with great regularity. So if you got one
that can give you consistent efforts, and nowadays Chris and man,
that's the other part. If I can get six innings
out of a guy consistently, I've won the damn lottery. Yeah,
you know, it's wild.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
As I was looking, I don't think this is right,
and it's MLB dot com, so there's no reason to
believe that it's not. And I get it, like you
just eloquently laid out, Mike Harmen. We're in a different era.
But do you know how many complete games that Blake Snell.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Has thrown in his career?
Speaker 4 (10:34):
I think it's one or two one, Yeah, and it
was last year when he only pitched, and when he
only started twenty games. Yeah, that's weird to sell to me.
That doesn't make sense for a high money starter right
in my I'm in my no, but that's just it.
In my estimation, I'm like, what are we doing?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
What are you doing? What are we doing?
Speaker 7 (10:49):
Five?
Speaker 3 (10:50):
What was it? Five? For one?
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Two?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
And I'm hoping to get him into the seventh?
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Yeah, exactly may if we're lucky. I mean, people, it's still.
The funny thing for me from the World Series is
Garrett Cole and he was Don't get me wrong, he
was great in that unfortunately decisive Game five for the Yankees,
but he was great. And yet we're hailing him like
he did something incredible and he looks like he just
ran a marathon and he barely threw over one hundred pitches.
(11:17):
He's like, look at this gutty effort. It's like, what
are you talking about? Man, It's like normal work, and
you go over there. Garrett Cole is just gas right now.
It's like, why he's through six? I mean, what are
we even doing right now? So count that up to
me being an old and wanting to get people off
my porch and off my lawn.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
But yeah, this one's a little bit.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
I mean, it's awesome for the Dodgers right to get
a good starting pitcher, a two time cy Young Award winner,
and this is the first nine figure deal of the
winner according to Jeff Passon. But you get Otani in
that mix with him, you're feeling a little bit better
about things.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Yeah, Janny Snell Glass now Yamamo no opt outs according
to John Palm Morosi. See that's that's pretty huge to me.
That's a little concerning to me, to be honest with you, though. Wow,
let's see Morosi also tweeting out our guy at John
Morosi leave out the age because mom said so. J
O N. M r Osi on Twitter, our friend saying,
(12:14):
making sure to note one hundred and twelve days earlier
this offseason, faster than he signed last year. Huh?
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Are we gonna have an active off season? In other words,
are we not going to wait until like two weeks
before the season to get the free agent market going
this year?
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Well? That is the question. How many of them are
still run by Scott.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Morris to wait until as long as they possibly can
to have everyone fighting against everyone and maximize the offer.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I mean, go back to what happened last year, right,
I mean Arizona? Who was it? Why is my brain
not firing? Here the starter who is an absolute disaster,
and they called him the worst signing ever in their
in their end of season people are people are screaming
(13:06):
at Swollen Dome to tell me how dumb I am
that I haven't had enough coffee this evening. But just
that idea of you wait, Montgomery, Jorn Montgomery, I had Dan.
I wanted to say Zimmerman, I was really dating myself.
There there you go. Uh So Montgomery's deal, you know,
he called the worst signing and was apologizing to fans
(13:27):
and everything else as he pitched to us. It's the
area of six plus and that's one of those If
I'm a Scott Boris client, I'm going, you know what,
this is now working against us a bit. We may,
we may you know, ultimately sign a bit bigger deal,
but you know, deals like that that go south are
going to hurt us that much more. Uh So, hopefully
(13:49):
it's an active free agency period. Hopefully it doesn't wait
until the last minute. And you know holiday gifts under
the tree, because now you can order a Blake Snell
Dodger jersey. How about that?
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Ooh, now, I'll add this as somebody who is a diehard,
lifelong Dodger fan. I do like the idea that immediately
they looked at a need and said, let's start addressing
this rather than waiting. Did they ever pay for him?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I don't know. What do you think, Mike. It seems
like that would be about the going rate. It's also
it's also funny money at this point, I guess you right,
especially if you're looking at a top end starter like
it's like when we do the quarterback thing for football.
It's like, don't get your your nose out of joint.
It's the going rate until someone says no, I will
(14:36):
not pay it. And for Blake Snell, like your printing money,
your printing money. We joked about the tours and the
trophy presentation. You got four plus million people coming through
what is it, eighty some odd percent of people that
came from Japan, you know, to the United States, found
their way to Dodger Stadium this last summer. I mean
(14:57):
all of those things, you know, to just say that,
unfortunately for a lot of Major League Baseball squads and
money is legitimately no object here, especially since you're able
to really do some fun things with kicking deferred monies.
For sure, Otani and the TV deals and all of this,
(15:20):
like it's you don't have to like it. I like
when there's super villains that you're trying to topple. Unfortunately,
we also know how those supervillains generally have to be toppled.
Things have to go wrong within and that's usually the
injury bug and even this year for the Dodgers, it
couldn't fill them.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
No, it's one of the you know, some people can
argue about injuries being an excuse. Dodgers easily could have
used that with their pitching staff, and it looked like
they might have to after what was that Game two
three with the Padres.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
When everybody was writing the death Knell articles. I don't
know what, well, but you know, here we are again.
This guy can't manage. These people shouldn't have their jobs.
And it was like, oh, they're the geniuses. Look what
they were able to navigate through. That's right.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
I'll ad this though on it as I just it's
reassuring whenever you see a team addressed in need. Absolutely,
but it's also for me, it's one of those to
where this leads to so many questions, is Snell Kershaw's replacement?
Is this because they can't afford Bueler. Does this mean
they're not confident with the young guys? So the recovery
of a Dustin May and class now. But I guess
in the end, Mike, I should just shut up and
(16:28):
be like, by God, they wouldn't got Blake Snell, a
guy who's been up pain in their backside for years
in the National League West, and even what he was
if he would have stayed in the game a little
bit longer in the twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Who knows right right that early exit always stands out.
But to your point, Chriz, all of those you know
you were like starting the seventies sitcom soap. All these
questions and more will be answered on the next episode
of soap. There you go, Billy Crystal role for folks
that want to get excitable and go back in the
(17:02):
TV time time capsules there. But I think when when
you look at it, yeah, it does raise a lot
of questions about the certainty of or uncertainty about injury comebacks.
The free agency of Bueler, I think maybe they're they're
thinking there's gonna be a team maybe in division or
a would be contender that just throws a giant bucket
(17:25):
of dollars at him, and they look at it and say,
all right, we know the history, we like him, we
love him. We got what we needed out of him.
We got a World Series Championship. Good luck, yep, exactly.
Let's go into the next one with a guy who,
when when right and when motivated, is a great arm out. Like,
look at all the caveats I have to do. Because
(17:45):
we've talked a lot about Blake snow Man. It's like,
look at the rest of his career. You've got Cy
Young years and whatever. It's kind of like Brett Saberhagen there,
I'm really aging myself now in the ages, right, Cy
Young Award winning season, eh, mid the next year comes
back the following year Cy Young Award season. So some
(18:05):
of that as you go through. But for the Dodgers,
a huge signing from Major League Baseball. Headlines are great
and if you like super villains, we've called him the
Evil Empire for what they've been building in the last
couple of years. The Death Star seemingly is complete. He's
Chris Blank in for Jason Smith coming up next. He's
gonna hate me because we're gonna be a little late
getting to him, but our guy Jason Cole stops by
(18:28):
the thirty third team. We're gonna get to ask him
what he's got in the Jets coaching and GM search,
what role he plays there. We'll continue, we'll do that next.
But first, when you're getting some holiday shopping done, no
question about it, whether it's food and getting your table

pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Welcome back in It's Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith Show
with Me Mike Carmon. Well Extended conversation. We got that
big breaking news Plank ordering himself a Blake Snell Dodgers
jersey for those just tuning in Snell five years one
eighty two. As the Dodgers address their starting rotation, I
(19:47):
know everybody going into emergency podcast form that cover the
Dodgers and Major League Baseball. Way, we've got news. I
was on my way to grandma's house, So how much
can I tap out? Fat fingering a telephone or maybe
going to the hotspot iPads and things of that nature.
(20:08):
Chaos ensues, but certainly another huge step forward for the
would be Dodgers juggernaut. As we sit here live from
the tirerac dot com studios watching some NBA Action Suns
with a one point lead over the Lakers a little
over eight minutes remaining in the third quarter. We've seen
(20:29):
some pretty big college basketball games tonight overtime Thriller's Top
ten teams, you had Duke in Kansas and some big
heavyweight blows coming out of that. So it's been a
fun run thus far. Chris Blank an action packed Tuesday
starting everybody's holiday week, and we.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Barely Jay Colt's coming up here in a bit. We've
barely touched on the NFL. Mike, This breaking news out
of baseball, as you mentioned, has everyone in emergency podcast mode.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
But we got so much to dip into in the
National Football League.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
It's it's like we've just hit the appetizer, but yet
we really haven't hit the good appetizers yet because there
is so much meat on that bone from the NFL
over the last forty eight hours.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Well, that's just it. There's so much out there, all
the marquee franchises, some swirling down the proverbial toilet with
us to talk about it all. It's our guy. Everybody
gets your bounce on his new theme song. It's our buddy,
Jason Cole. He's part of the brain trust getting ready
(21:34):
to fix the Jets at thirty thirteen at Jason Cole
sixty two on Twitter. The author of many books. As
you get to your holiday shop and go to Amazon,
give it a search, go buy one or five. How
you doing, Jay Cole?
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Oh my god, this is my new inter music.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Huh oh, you get the boots on and get a
little dance share off Woody Johnson taking over the running
the Jets right into the ground. So uh so, did
you write like a thirty five page treatise for these
guys as they get ready to engage Woody Johnson or what.
Speaker 6 (22:16):
Try try and decide whether you know what you're doing
or not.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
One says, do you think you know what you're doing?
And the other one says, you really have realized you don't.
And then it's like the red or the blue pill or.
Speaker 6 (22:35):
Basically yes, but that's exactly what it is. This is fine.
I mean, you need to have some advisors, and this
is you get some experts. Basically, what he has to
just understand he needs to get out of the way,
just needs to get out of the way and let
(22:57):
somebody else really manage the team. But the problem is
that when you spend you know, a billion dollars and
spend all the money they've spent over the years on
that team, guys like to drive the car, They like
to have the keys and some of the And I
will say this, what are Johnson compared to some of
(23:17):
the things I've been hearing the last week or so
about Mark Davis in Las Vegas. Man, It's I never
would have thought I would think that Woody would be sensible.
But based on what I'm hearing about Mark Davis, what
he's getting closer to sensible?
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Well, there you go for you like team me up
as a passionate lifelong Raider fan, Jason, Well, I mean,
at least we're starting to see people buy into this thing,
but he's still going to maintain control. And just how
how big of a disaster is it in your mind?
Speaker 6 (23:53):
I mean, he walked into it evidently a while ago.
He walked into the team after again, into the locker
room after a game they had that they had one
and I don't have all the particulars on this. I
know the game and I know who the coaches were involved,
but they had won the game on the road and
a thrilling victory. He started screaming at the coaches about
(24:19):
clock Management's like, you know, and in front of the players,
dressing down the coach. It's like, dude, you have no
clue what you're doing. You have just no idea what
you're doing about whether you do that kind of stuff
in front of the players after a victory, yeah, I mean,
(24:41):
just it's it's horrendous. That's one, you know, the week
by week decisions. The other one that I hear from
him is the number of people that he listens to
and it's like that's the best advice he's got ever.
It's like he listens to somebody and we're not talking
(25:01):
about like experts in the field. We're talking about like,
you know, low level agents. So he has conversations and
we'll and we'll have conversations with him for four straight
nights at you know, and they will come in and say,
oh my god, this is the most brilliant idea I've
ever had an agents, Like, I've never run a team.
(25:24):
I you know, I just have suggestions, and that's what
he's thinking to himself. So I just it. Really it
defies any kind of logic or any kind of straight
line approach to how you learn what you're doing. But
he controls the keys to one of the greatest brands
(25:46):
in sports history. Because despite the fact that your team
has finished third place or worse, which is hard in
fourteen divisions, but third place are worse in seventeen of
the past twenty one, you remain a diehard Raater fan,
don't you. And do you ever question yourself as to
why you're doing this to yourself?
Speaker 3 (26:06):
My wife does quite a bit. She says, why do
you do this to yourself, like I have no idea
it do.
Speaker 7 (26:12):
It's ingredible, but whether it's not, whether it's me or
your wife questioning you, the real question is do you
ask yourself and do you actually come up with an answer?
Speaker 6 (26:23):
Like there's a deep, that's great Calfordian thing going on here.
Do you actually consider why you're doing this to yourself?
Speaker 4 (26:31):
Gosh, no, I don't. I must be a sucker for
pain or something. I've even Jason no Live. I've got
to the point where I watch the Saints and I
miss Derek Carr. So that shows you how bad it's
been for me as a Raiders fan. He's been pretty
good in the last few weeks. But yeah, it's just
not good. It's just not good. I don't think it's
going to get good. I don't know if cam Ward
or should or Sanders is going to fix it. I
(26:52):
don't know if Antonio pears. You feel like it's something
that has to come from the top, if it's going
to get any better.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
For they've been behind by double digits in every semnle
game and lost what They've lost their two and nine
Now they've lost seven of those times yeah bye, and
seven of the nine losses by double digits. He's just
looking to go this is this is a cluster. This
(27:20):
is just absolutely a cluster, and they have no idea
how to get out of it. They've gotten worse, And granted,
the quarterback situation is what it is. They thought they
were going to get pedics. They got jumped and didn't
expect that. They weren't ready for it. That's put them
behind by another year. But when I look at this
division and you say, all right, Denver has Sean Payton
(27:40):
and bow Nicks. The Chargers are looking pretty good with
Herbert and Harbaugh, and the Chiefs are the Chiefs R.
Like they're none of these teams are going away anytime soon.
And if bo Nicks really actually is good, how long
before the Raiders sniffed the playoffs?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Yeah it's gonna be a minute. Oh, let's let's move
to my team.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
Cole, your quarterback looks a lot better last week.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Yeah quarter Yeah? No, no, that that OC and Caleb
did whatever the equation is there, and Caleb's laughing about it.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Uh get you mean, like, here's here's the thing that
these really important things. Yeah, block people, Yeah, and get
the ball out of your hand.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Yeah, run door, run door itself. Get the ball out
of your hand. Uh, and reminder, you're not at USC
look at the logo on the jersey you're wearing, and
remember that these guys can all chase you down.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
This is I know that. I know the football is
very complicated sport, but some things about it not that complicated. Yeah,
don't hold the ball for like thirty seconds. You're gonna
you're gonna get killed if you do that event they're
going to catch you and they're going to kill you.
It's just it's just not healthy for you. So yeah,
(29:04):
get the ball out of your hands. This is this
is not science anyways. But I love that. I love
them opening on Thursday. I think that'll be a fun game,
certainly better than the than the Giants and the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Yeah, but how quickly? I mean, am I in the bag?
If I if I do an Eberflu's drinking game?
Speaker 6 (29:25):
How many times eberflu? What what is the trigger for
the drinking?
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Well, I mean, look, we're gonna throw challenge flags, We're
going to Yeah, I think a lot of it really
comes to his postgame comments. Is really where I.
Speaker 6 (29:42):
Place if you play the Eberflus drinking game and then
you're having family over for dinner or you're doing something
with your family or anything like that. Doesn't that does
that become dangerous?
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Yeah? No exactly, But it isn't. Thanksgiving supposed to be
about truth.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
There'll be a lot of truth telling after the game,
coming to Jesus. I can't believe I cheered for the
same stuff like.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
That in my life, Jason's life, Mike's life. We just
cheer for terrible football teas. Hey, hey, let me put Jason.
I know we're running out of time, but are you
They're ten and one and they're still winning games and
they're going to beat the Raiders on Friday.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
They're gonna be eleven one. But I mean, is there.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
Any cause for concern you have right now with how
the Chiefs are winning?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Or do we just hey, they're winning, leave.
Speaker 6 (30:37):
Them alone, they're winning, leave them alone. They're bored. Yeah, Yeah,
they're just bored. That's that's how I look at the
Chiefs right now. It's the one back to back titles.
You've been a contender for six seven years now, a
serious contender for titles. This this regular season thing is
(31:00):
not that big a challenge, Like, was there ever a
moment in that game, after even after Carolina tied it up,
where you thought there was any hope that Carolina was winning.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
But it was fun, you know for them.
Speaker 6 (31:13):
Yeah, No, it was great. It was a great theater.
And then they were like, oh, we need to win now,
all I thinks, let me, let me run downfield and
we'll just still get We'll still get this, get the
shield goal done, and then we're going to go home.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Now.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
I think that Patrick Mahomes is they're playing to the
level of their opponents right now, and they ran a
little bit into a buzzsaw. Buffalo wanted them a little
bit worse. I mean, even Josh Allen, as much as
you tried to say, oh, it was just another game,
like yeah, yeah, sure, yes, sure Josh, just another gay, yes,
(31:45):
another just another game as you're trying to chase that
m VP down.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
No.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
I I think that there and Cruise Control, they play.
They play when they have to. They get lead, They
milt games, they want to run the ball and they
just you know, they're they're content to let Kareem hunt,
you know, get yards and when Pataco comes back, like
to Jaco, get b Ryan and you know, just play
(32:12):
one score games because they know their defense is good
enough and they're going to wait until it's playoff playoff
time to really really turn it up. And I don't
know if that's that good thing or a bad thing.
You know, some people, you know will play the everybody
will play the results at the end and say, okay,
if they lose in the playoffs because they didn't have
the intensity and you know, the edge, ID just argue
(32:38):
this is it's just hard to maintain that kind of
edge that long. I mean, I talked to you guys
who were in the Dolphins after they went back in
the second year of the back to back, after they
went perfect in seventy two and then came back and
won the title in seventy three, and it was their
third straight year going to the Super Bowl. They went
fourteen and two, and there were a lot of close
games in there, but they said, look, we knew we
(32:59):
were a better football That was our part, you know,
even though we lost a couple of games along with
the way, we knew what we needed to do to
win games that season. So they could throttle it down
a little bit and not have to put as much
stress during the season. And that's just how the Chiefs
are playing.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
There you go at my signal unleash hell because remember
when teams used to throttle it down Peyton Manning and
the Colts, he usually didn't end well, no, no, that
trend so yeah, yeah, but I mean again again, if
it doesn't, if they lose in the playoffs, we will
(33:35):
blame it on the fact that they weren't playing with
an edge.
Speaker 6 (33:39):
And I think that that's that's actually fair to say.
It's it's fair to say that, but I also say
it's really hard to maintain that edge for that long.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
No, that's were doing four hours a night here at
Fox Sports Radio, and certainly for that no one.
Speaker 6 (33:54):
No one has has edge like Chris playing. There's no
up to especially after you're having to drink Johnny Walker
before the Chiefs raiders.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Man, that's right, La on Friday, that's right, old bottle. Yeah,
may old bottle. I'm gonna be at Baton Rouge.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
So yeah, there you go, double it down at Jason
Gold sixty two where you find them thirty.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
Thirty Friday comes. Let's see you later.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
We love you, see you, buddy, Thanks for hagging out
with us. There's what he's round up. Didn't want to
cut him off. I mean, we could do this all
night play word Association, but now it's hard to do
that with our guy, Isaac lowind crowd because it's been
a busy day in the sporting universe.
Speaker 5 (34:33):
Hey buddy, you have some unexpected busyness from the Hot
Stove League in Major League Baseball, because multiple outlets reported
a short time ago that the world champion Los Angeles
Dodgers have agreed to a five year, one hundred and
eighty two million deal a one hundred and eighty two
million dollar deal with two times Cy Young Award winner
Blake Snell. Snell spent last season with the San Francisco Giants,
(34:57):
but opted out of the second year of his deal
with them earlier this month. Among the comments on social
media at Chris I Zid's or at Chris is it.
Maybe that's better than oh, Chris I Zid, who commented, quote,
just give him the trophy for next season, might as
well sign Soto next unquote.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
They're probably working on it.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
Fourth stead of college football playoff rankings were revealed on
Tuesday night. Top four stayed the same, Oregon number one,
followed by Ohio State, Texas and Penn State, Notre Dame
moved up to number five, Indiana dropped from fifth to tenth.
One NBA Cup game going on right now in Phoenix,
where the Suns leave the Los Angeles Lakers eighty eight
to seventy four with three minutes left in the third.
(35:43):
They've outscored the Lakers twenty six to fourteen.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
In the period.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
Earlier, the San Antonio Spurs won at Utah one twenty
eight to one, fifteen by thirty four from Victor Webbin Yama.
And in college football, number one Kansas a short time
ago prevailed over eleventh rank Duke seventy five seventy two
as Duke's Con Knipple missed the game tying three pointer
in and out at the buzzer.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Did everybody churning yell can like they were shatner? You
know me?
Speaker 6 (36:13):
So?
Speaker 7 (36:14):
Well?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Oh nice, A big joke.
Speaker 4 (36:16):
No.
Speaker 5 (36:17):
I actually went back to try and find the audio
of that, and you know what, I kicked myself because
I realized that you would have gotten the reference, and
so many other people out there would have gotten the
reference too. So I'll just recreate it again.
Speaker 3 (36:31):
Come nicely doing. You did it better than I did.
On No, you're the best at Isaac Low and Kron
Kindred Spirits, No question about it. He's Chris Blank in
for Jason Smith. Jason Smith, YEO with me Mike Carmon
here from the tirerac dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios
and coming up, there are things we've come to expect
at Thanksgiving. Well, we want to remind you that experimentation
(36:56):

Coming up in ten minutes from now, we'll get back
into the world of the NFL through the Dallas Cowboys
and some the latest lunacy from Jerry Jones. Welcome back
in Mike Harmon alongside Chris Blank No Jason Smith. Tonight
off for the holiday holiday holiday back on Monday, we'll
be back in full effect. Chris and Arnie Span your
(37:34):
in for us tomorrow. I thank you in advance, and
I thank you for today. I appreciate you. Yeah, man,
good to hang, always good to chop it up, Always
good to have you in the mix. With us part
of the extended family that we have here on the show.
And Chris, I mean, you have expectations on Thanksgiving, right,
you know you're gonna see the lions, You're gonna see
the cowboys. You're probably going to gluttonize not ones, not twice,
(37:59):
but rice on various food stuffs, and you're gonna be
salty if something's missing from the table. Right, yeah, sure,
absolutely right, there's just those expectations. Right. Maybe maybe it's
it's grandma's, this, mom's, that wife, girlfriend, you know, all
of those things. You know, whoever you are out there,
(38:20):
you know you're you're thinking of that one thing that's
got to be on the table. And part of the equation.
Don't worry, we'll get to the MVP voting off a
survey that we saw a little bit earlier. But there
there's expectations and that things are going to be done
in a certain manner. Well, this was brought to my
attention earlier of well, when things go wrong because you
(38:45):
decided to don't fair mental damn Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving? How you
like that? Don't experiment on Thanksgiving? That's right, you do
it on your own time. You want to get a
recipe off the internet. You want to get all crazy
(39:08):
and add extra layers to things because you saw it
on the Food Network, or you watch some TikTok chef
have at it. That woman was not having it, and
I think that's probably stands for a lot of households
across America. I want my staples. Give me my turkey,
maybe dry, give me my turkey, Give me the overly
buttered mashed potatoes to become a staple. Give me my
(39:30):
whatever version of stuffing. You got some yams, some russels, sprouts,
green bean castle, whatever it may be. You just have
these expectations of what they're and then all of a sudden,
it's like, you know what today this year, I decided
to take a spin on this.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
I laughed so hard when I saw that, because I've
got I've got a fifth to sixteen year old daughter, now,
who that's her thing. She sees something on like Instagram
or TikTok, and she's gonna try to do It's pretty good,
little chef, But it's one of those things where if
you try to mess with how mom or grandma does
it and put your own little spin on it, Mike
(40:07):
get end up in big trouble around here, big.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Trouble around here.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Don't experiment on Thanksgiving that it goes for Christmas and Easter,
two very important eating holidays.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
No, there's no question about it, right. You just have
your expectations of what the menu is going to look
like traditions, that's right, right. I listened to my iHeart
Broadway Channel, one of the many things you can get
on the iHeartRadio app. I sell this app like nobody
else's business. Chris Plank between the twenty four hours a
day we give you at Fox Sports Radio, all the podcasts,
now the Music channel. When I get a music going,
(40:40):
it's the Broadway Channel. And tradition from Fiddler on the
Roof we'll find its way into my rotation. There are
things that we come to expect in this life, and
when they get pushed aside while we lose our minds
and certainly our food stuff's, our beverages and our football
on foot on Thanksgiving is things we just have to have.
(41:02):
And messing with mac and cheese, man, why are you
messing with mac and cheese? Lesson learned, Yes, screw it up.
This was something that had all sorts of eggs to it.
Now I really want to see that recipe, but you
want to talk about someone who had been banished and
exiled for the rest of that holiday. Wait. I guess
that's a more interesting conversation than some of the others
(41:22):
that'll get people fighting this year. He's Chris, I'm Mike.
