I'll tell you what. Midway of the show Monday Night,
I was in a bit of a fever haze, like
there's there's parts of Monday Night that are a little
hazy show wise, I was like, whoa this is?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I think he wrote that down right?
Speaker 5 (02:03):
Crossbringer was like twenty seven fifty two of our two
Snell gave.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Up the man. Yeah that's uh, yeah, I was. I was.
It was a it was a good like twelve or
fourteen hours like I'm in trouble here.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Uh you know, if you go see a doctor. No, no,
I did not have wall check you out. I mean,
what's going on on?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Yeah? My dad. My dad would show some things and
just standing around and go, I don't know what to
do here now. It was just like brought a cold
back from from the you know, my holiday last week
and Monday, I'm like, okay, great, I'm feeling okay, feeling okay,
And then like midway through the show, I was like,
oh wow, I'm really hot. I am burning up, and yeah,
a lot of the show was hazy, so we're okay.
(02:44):
Then I think we're all.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Right, all right, hazy shit of spring.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Yes, yesterday had no voice. You know, you ate a
lot of soup, and now I'm ready to go back tonight.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Soup good.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
More ready tonight than Blake Snell was, that's for sure,
sharp as attack already sharp. Uh so yeah. Ono Tawny
Bobblehead MVP Bobblehead Day, where despite the fact that every
Dodger fan who attended tonight's game was getting a bobblehead,
there was still a line that was a half mile
(03:16):
long at one o'clock in the afternoon outside Dodgers.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Still but you know what, there there was a divide
in terms of information because there was the the rumbling
out there that there was only going to be forty
thousand of them, so you wanted the tree you got.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
But then they they made sure everybody no, it could
but you already lined up, but for everybody coming in. Yeah,
but by then I could leave. Oh it's only one thirty.
I'm gonna leave it here.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Are you gonna go McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yeah, I'll go to McDonald's to come back.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
I mean, you could have gone and hung out at Duly's,
plays over at the Shortstop for a bit and a
couple of quick ones, and I.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
Alretty sure the one off Vince Scully Wade doesn't have
a ballpitch, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
That's all right? I would I would just order off
the secret McDonald's menu as long as it's still there now,
and I would have lived. Okay, I could come back
because I'm getting a bobblehead. I'm okay, I'm getting I know,
I'm getting a bobble hit.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
They got the former John Berger.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
Did they have any of the gold ones this time around?
And that add any of the chase? But yes, do it.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
I want to start a rumor, which is not something
you should do on sports talk.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Right, But I want to start pad.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
I want to start a rumor that like there were
like a hundred special torpedo bat o Tawny bobble heads
that were given away today, Like, oh, if you get
one of the special o Tawny ones with that, and
what you could do is, now, if you really wanted to,
if you really wanted to do it, is you would
like shave off the top of the bat and make
it look like a torpedo bat. Go, here's the MVP
torpedo bat. Oh my god, I'm selling it on the
(04:35):
eBay for ten thousand dollars and someone would buy it.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
What is really cool is yesterday you could have done that.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah, well yesterday. If I really did it and sold it,
I couldn't tell the next day, Oh hey that ten
grand you sent me April fool? No, I wow.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
You would have had to start tinkering with a bobble
head and getting out into you know, your little work
room right working on the workbench and shaving off parts
of a bat that's part of an TWI bobblehead, fabricating
things on your three D printer.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
O wan call it? Hey, how do I get out
of this? I'm in trouble here, I'm like the most
hated man. I gotta call Zach Hampell. He would be
the only guy less hated than I was. Well, how
do I get out of something like that?
Speaker 5 (05:12):
It's all really just a question of how many of
those you would have sold, because and depending on how
you would have termed it. Because where you're having in
the trading card world right now, guys are getting really
good and printers are getting better, so you're getting people
making custom cards. Here's the card that never was right,
So here's from this guy's rookie year, while they didn't
actually make a card of him until three years later.
(05:32):
Or here's a movie from nineteen eighty five. Well's to
make a nineteen eighty five card. People that are unaware
of the marketplace like, oh, that's a really cool rookie
card of insert movie star here. It's like, it's not
a real card, except that, you know, some artists put
it together, so it's not worth a thousand dollars you're spending,
but it is because it's an art card and it's
(05:53):
a custom card as opposed to an actual official nineteen
eighty five tops card.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You know, it's a weird spot there.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
It's worth it because that's what someone paid for it.
Wait wait, wait, no, no, no, no, that's what it's worth.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
But it's it's the question of the legitimacy of you know,
was it an actual issued carter?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Is an art card?
Speaker 5 (06:10):
And if you put the details out and they don't
choose to read, then you can go fight in court.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah no, see, I'm just thinking about the missed opportunities
I missed out on with the Otani bobble I would
have had to get the real bobble heads and then
I would have had to shave the bats, shave the
tops of the bats off a little bit, and then
sell them and do it all.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
But if you bought a hundred of them and then
deciding to do that, now they're you know on Art
by Smith, so logo, and you know, you pull out
a can of spray paint, start doing all pollock on
the box and stuff, and suddenly you've got a limited
edition thing and you're.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Not lined anybody in Vietnam though, So that's a seventy
tariff right there.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Oh oh yeah, nothing, yeah, oh well they would have
come over before today.
Speaker 5 (06:59):
No, that's what it's sitting there. I mean, look the
ones for September are somewhere on the grounds.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, just an or a ship.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
They're in the back of the truck parked outside your house.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, no, if it if it's in the
country before today, it's absolutely fun. That was yesterday, maybe
not so much today.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
It's official, right.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Uh So while we have that, while we're took, you know,
there is more to talk about with the with the
Otani bobblehead. We are now three goals away from absolute
history in the NHL tonight televised on TNT True TV.
The game was on like four channels because you never
know when Alex Ovenchen can get a hat trick. Uh
(07:37):
He is now three goals away from breaking the all
time record Wayne Gretzky's all time record of eight to
ninety four. After this goal in a five to one
blowout lost tonight to the Carolina Hurricanes, thirty five seconds
to go on the periods, Anney d two Darmers are
(08:10):
showing his family. His wife is getting tapped up by
Carrie Patman. Everybody's Putin's out shirtless on a horse behind
him riding around. Oh it's great, that's the bobblehead. You've
been waiting on will be honest, you know behind him. No,
that would be that would be what you all. Okay,
wait a minute, So that's one bobblehead. Is Ovechkin with
(08:32):
his with his hands raised after the goal and putin
on a horse. Yeah, that's one bobblehead.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
One bobble head together, kind of like when Wayne Boggs
was getting ridden around by the by the police officer
after the Yankees won the World Series.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Now, look, the greatest record in hockey is about to
be broken. Right this transcend sports. It's the greatest record
this sport has. And and even if people who aren't
hockey fans know about Wayne Gretzky and his goal record
of eight ninety and here comes Alex Ovechkin, who's been
an NHL superstar. You know, he's thirty nine years old.
Now he's won a Cup, he's won Hart Trophies, he's
(09:08):
been first team All NHL. Look, the guy's gonna wind
up having the record for most goals in NHL history.
And it's gonna happen sometime the next couple of games.
He can smell it. He's been on kind of a
goal every other game pace this season. And now he's
a little bit ahead of it, so he needs three
and he still has enough games to do it again.
I want to say, in a blowout loss to the
(09:28):
Carolina Hurricane tonight, who just showed showed the Capitals who
was boss in this big showdown. I just want to
say that. But still he is now three goals away.
And honestly, how I feel about this, I just I
feel just met. I'm not upset about it. I'm not
you know, Oh, Gretzky's gonna have his record broken, and
(09:50):
Ovechkin's not the player Gretzky was, which nobody is. Look,
you cannot count any of Wayne Gretzky's goals, count zero goals.
He still has more points than anybody who's ever played
the game. I just think about that for a second.
Take away all of his goal the goal scoring leader.
Take away all his goals, and he still has more
points than anybody who's ever played the game. So I
don't feel that way. I don't feel that he's not
(10:12):
worthy because Ovechkin's a terrific goal scorer. Look go look
back and see what Gretzky's goal scoring prowess was like
once he hit thirty years old. Like Gretzky didn't score
many goals. I don't think he scored two hundred goals
from the time he was thirty one till he retired.
And no, Vechkin's up up at at like three seventy,
Like he scored like three hundred and seventy goals since
he's turned thirty. Right, he's gonna he's gonna pass this record,
(10:33):
He's gonna own it.
Speaker 5 (10:34):
Yeah, depending on what's not and smith that would ask,
they'd ask a lot of questions about you.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Yeah, it's not much. Oh, it's maybe, that's what it is.
It's a beat. It's beat soup every day. It's every
single that I have, beat soup every.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Morning, blood stuff with and and away we go.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
But it it's because Ovechkin's a great player, right watching
his whole career is a phenomenal goal scores, phenomenal player.
I love hockey. I just I feel like, Okay, it's
cool he's breaking it. But I'm not filled with the
normal emotion I would be of so and so about
to break a record, about to break one of the
all time records, not just a record, but the biggest
hockey record there is, you know, and and I don't know,
(11:14):
maybe I'll feel differently as it as it gets right
upon us, because now clearly he could do it in
any game a hat trick. He is probably not gonna
get a hat trick, but three goals away, and and
there's still more than enough time for him to do it.
I he's probably gonna get it sometime in the next
maybe by this weekend, all right. Like again, he still
has time. He's got like six or seven games left.
(11:37):
But when he passes, I don't know how I'm gonna feel.
But I'm not gonna feel upset. I'm not gonna feel crazy.
I'm not gonna feel through the moon. I don't know
what it is. And it's not anything the fact that
he's rushing or he'sist. Now he's been a big superstar
throughout his entire career. He's done, he's validated everything, right well,
like I said, the art Ross trophies and the MVP
(12:00):
he's and the Stanley Cup that he's won in the
first team, all all NHL. Like he's done everything. He's done.
Everything you want to do is be the captain. His
teammates love him. I don't know why it's did. I
always want Gretzky to have the record, sure, but in
my life I know that even the greatest of great
records are gonna be broken. But I don't mean it.
I just I don't have a feel other than, oh,
(12:20):
here's a record that's gonna be broken. We're gonna cover it,
We're gonna talk about it. Like Capitols fans are excited.
A lot of NHL fans are excited. A lot of
NHL fans are not because they want Gretzky to have
the record because he's Wayne bleeping Gretzky, and I understand that,
but I'm just kinda it's weird. I want to give
you a hot take. I want to give you a
big hey this this he's not worthy all of courd
he's worthy. He's a better goal scorer than Gretzky ever was.
(12:41):
But in the end, I'm kind of like, yeah, it's
just gonna happen. And it's weird that I feel that way.
And I've been kind of asking myself that question the
last couple of days and I just can't come up
with an answer. I just like, Okay, I feel like okay,
am I overall when it comes to records, not what
it was when I was younger, do I not feel
the same way about records? That could be it. You know,
I was excited at the fifty to fifty with O TOADI.
(13:02):
We'd never seen that before, and all these different things.
But you know, I don't know. Maybe that's the case
of it. It's a weird thing, and I keep thinking
about it. I don't have the answer.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
I hope the Russians love their children too.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Is that where you're going?
Speaker 3 (13:15):
You're going full staying while we're out.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Yeah, yeah, let's go back to the Cold War nineteen
eighty three.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Canoe sad shit too much from up.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Up see film and television references. Look, I think some
of it we can tie directly to our watching of
the NBA right now and some of the Jokic and
and that whole face of the NBA thing. Right we're
watching Oklahoma City early on against Detroit right now, and
Shae Gilders Alexander he's a Canadian, but he's still not
(13:44):
an American, so can he be the face of the NBA?
And look, we could do that that topic, like so
many shows before us, for hours on end.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
We're not We're not gone. But that's part of it
is the.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
You know, who's the guy that you elevate and for
Gretzky again not American, but certainly lives down the street.
But it's just the idea that that is the face
of a game that is decades talk about games changing
and rules of engagement changing, and how we look at
it through the prism of all, right, well, the game's
(14:17):
not the same as it was then, so when records fall,
we don't hold them to the same level. Like the
home runs and like Otani was just fifty to fifty
is just something completely nobody's expecting to come out of
left field.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Right.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
This isn't just hey, he went and hit seventy four
home runs with his torpedo bat or not, right, no
matter what the case was, it's not a record that
we held sacred. And even then during the steroid human
growth hormone whatever guys were injecting and putting on their bodies,
(14:53):
you know, a lot of it was all right, I'm
just sitting marvel with the hand eye coordination and how
far the ball's flying. Because clearly everybody around Major League
Baseball didn't give the damn until suddenly they did when
Congress came a knocking. As a whole thing into pharmaceuticals.
But I don't think we hold records the same way.
(15:15):
And for Gretzky, you can always just say, well he
was a better score overall, and you point all the
assists and everything else, and maybe there's a tinge of
the Hey it's the Russian guy, the foreign born guy.
Maybe that's sitting there, and I don't I just don't
think that we hold records quite the same way.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Right.
Speaker 5 (15:31):
Look at the you're the thunder are having other than
bj Armstrong and some of the guys that were on
those Bulls squads and maybe a couple of guys piping
up from Golden State. Is anybody really watching that? No,
they're talking about how the game's changed and teams quit
and everything else. So the same thing applies here is
like is the game different? Is it easier to score
than it used to be? And I guess we could
(15:52):
start doing the metrics from there.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yeah, I mean I wish I could I had a
better answer, you know, I wish I had a better answer.
I just I just don't. I'm like, Okay, it's gonna
happen and all right, and really I don't know, I
don't know why, Like I said, I've been asking myself
that question last couple days, going about to see this record.
It's been hell. I remember watching Gretzky set the record
(16:15):
and it was incredible, and I just feel, okay, I
don't it's again really really weird.
Speaker 3 (16:20):

(17:24):
I gotta say today, today was a tough day. Uh.
You know last night, I'm sure you guys talked about
a little bit last night Val Kilmer dying at the
age of sixty five, and it was, you know a
bit of a shock. We had known he was in
ill health for a long time and you know, all
the stuff we talk about top Gun here on the show,
and Iceman was just just just really just just really
(17:46):
whacked me in the face and wow, Val Kilmer's gone,
and just an incredible career that he had and so many,
you know, so many incredible roles. And you know, you
think your timeline would be filled with top Gun stuff
most of the daytape. Instead it was all tombstone and
it was real genius. How secret Wyatt? How about that?
(18:07):
What do you think? Wyat? Wuyat? Why you say with
Wyatt with an h.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
There Uh, And it was like.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
I'm in my prime and it was just it was
really fun to see to see the rest of his
career being being celebrated like that because I know people
just get a default to top and me that's what
I do. M oh yeah. Well and he was Elvis.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Andrue Glory Elvis, yeah, get the greatest one of all guys.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
What's that he oh yeah, oh my god. He talked
He talked about heat like it was the greatest He
talked about the filming heat like it was the greatest
experience of his life. You know that. I can say
Alan Bob for the rest of my life now because
I know them and that and and being on on
camera with them was just something else. And it was
an incredible experience. Like his stuff, the respect he had
(18:57):
for the craft of acting and the and the career
he had, like it really was incredible. I mean action,
star hero, you know, did comedy, did adventure, you know
you think about all this stuff. Valcilma didn't Okay, yeah,
he didn't do much in the last few years, but
what he did for the mid eighties all the way
to like the mid two thousands and twenty ten, like
(19:19):
he crammed so much, so many great roles into into
that span. I mean, that's that's like, that's just that's
just really incredible, you know, and then he he he
was never a hey, I'm the one hundred percent leading man,
but he was always the co leading man or the
or part of the ensemble. And he could do so
many different things, Like he wasn't just tight cast as
(19:41):
one thing, Like he really did have some career val Kilmrisly.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
Was something curious and seeing like some of the old
interviews with co stars that were pulled up and dredged out.
It was like, you know, reports of him being difficult
on set and whatever. I was like, No, he wasn't
a diva. He was just a guy that was making
sure we all got it right. And so he was
a pain in the ass that way. And so there
was a lot of celebration in that regard, just going
(20:07):
all the way back to the earliest films that he
was in Hell, I mean, start off with Top Secret
and then work from there. But if you haven't seen it,
it's available on Prime the vow documentary that they did
about his art, you know, his health, his.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Life and all of that. It's really worth a look. See.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Is that the I'm Your Huckleberry? Is that one? The
I'm Your Huckleberry?
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Oh, it gets in that.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
Yeah, I mean it's just called val It's a bit
self indulgent at points, but you get through it of
oh there's a guy kind of looking back because, let's
face it, he went through some serious health stuff for
a long time, throat cancer and you know, talked about
it a little bit last night. My dad's gone through
a couple of bouts of that. He's he's alive and
well down in Clearwater, Florida and reaking havoc down there.
(20:53):
But you know, for the past thirty years, he's a
guy that's you know, had the trake and had to
talk with the buzzer and so for Valc, filmer had
to do some of that, had to learn, you know,
the new way of speaking and become comfortable in his
own skin, going out and being in public and all
of those kind of things. And the documentary gives you
some of that as well as just what a prolific
(21:13):
artist he was, you know, in his downtime and away
from screen and film projects. But you know, just all
the the old co stars coming out with their statements
of what he meant to them as you know, a
fellow actor, or they're awe of how he operated on
a set. You know, we all aspire to have that
one person say that about this when we're gone. He had,
(21:35):
he had them lining up to pay tribute.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Yeah, you know. And I think that's part of why
he and Tom Cruise were such good friends, because Tom
Cruise always cares so much about movies, like that's his love,
like that's his like yeah, yeah. And I think that's
why he and val Kilmer got along so well, because
the val Kilmer was kind of the same way. And
you know, all the last day I've been thinking about
(21:59):
with valcilm or since this news broke late last night,
is I've been thinking about Top Gun Maverick because I
remember watching and look, I don't know that I've seen
a movie in the last ten years that's come out
in the last ten years more than I've seen Top
Gun Maverick, right cause you know my love of Top
Gun and I couldn't wait for this. We all went
to see it together, yea, right, and a tight shirt
stayed awake through the whole movie. And and I kept
(22:21):
thinking about because that's his last on screen roll, right,
was when when he had when he was in his
as as iceman. And I remember watching it and seeing
it and just being blown away by it, going, oh,
this is not really a movie anymore. Like I like,
like when you know it's coming, like Tom Cruise go
to his house and his wife says, he's upstairs. Oh
my god, he's we're gonna see Val Kilmer. They're gonna
(22:43):
have a scene together. This is gonna be unbelievable. And
it was. And you knew he couldn't speak and he's
still and they wrote it into the into the plot
line that he was you knew he was sick, and
it was just so I remember watching it my eyes
wide open, going, this is more than just a movie scene,
and this is an incredible back and forth between the
two of them, and both of them still you could
(23:04):
see the chemistry that they had, you know, back in
nineteen eighty five and nineteen eighty six with Top Gun,
And I've just been thinking about that moment, going that
for that to be his last moment on film, that
really is something to look back and go that entire career.
And still you could hear a pin drop in the
movie theater when you knew that scene was coming up,
(23:24):
like He's going to ICE's house to talk to him
about what to do, and really I mean, watching that
over and over again. I went back and watch it
again today and I just said, I still can't believe
this was in the movie, that this was still part.
It's such a powerful few minutes and he can only
work a few minutes. He was only in it for
a little bit, but it didn't matter. You know, you
can still see he was still iceman. He was still
(23:46):
you know, still had the big smile and still had
the charisma and him and Tom Cruise chopping it up.
And Tom Cruise really took a step back in that scene,
letting Ice, letting him have the scenery to chew it
a little bit. And I really like that of his
entire career. I spent more time thinking about that moment
from that movie today than anything else.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
The Navy needs Maverick, The kid needs Maverick. That's why
I fought for you. That's why you're still here.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Oh man, I got goosebumps just hearing that again. I
mean it was I don't know how as sick as
he was doing that, he's able to pull that off.
I mean, really that again, I'm gonna go back and
think about that more than think about anything else that
he's done in his career.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Yeah, I mean just the power that movies has over us.
I mean, it's the stump speech that Cruise has been
making for thirty years. But you know those moments that
surprised you, Right, even if you've went into the movie
and you knew that Val Kilmer was part of it,
it's still you know, I had that lump in the
throat kind of thing because you knew you weren't getting
(25:00):
many more of those, uh, and what it took to
get that back on the silver screen.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
And look what Maverick meant to an industry overall.
Speaker 5 (25:09):
But you know, as we we think about Val Kilmer
and all those roles, and he was all as serious
as an actor as he was, right, and you talk
about Heat and Tombstone and top Gun and all this.
He was one of the great smart asses on tea,
on film and television that we've ever seen. I heard
he was hire too, right, Yeah, just snarky as can be.
(25:30):
So yeah, it's cool stuff, Jason.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, what do you got Frostburg in the movie Heat?
Speaker 4 (25:36):
Apparently his his handling of like you know that the
fight scene with the l A P D at the end, Oh.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Yeah, when he could he was reading so fast.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is a story though.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
Apparently like acting school where you hold the weapon, they
teach the way he had he held the gun. He
did it so well. Apparently they show you like what
he was doing.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Yeah. No, And I read that it's they actually teach
recruits in the LAPD not not like an acting class.
It's like, this is the other this is how you
reload this weapon so fast? He's an actor. Yeah, watch
how he does it. He does it better than anybody
I've ever seen.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
It's truly unremarkable, remarkable. What oh I mean you go
back and watch that scene. It's it's it's insane masterpiece.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Yeah, I'll tell you.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
It goes to the darkness. Another one that we hadn't mentioned,
but talk about setting the scene him.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
And Douglas as well.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
Good stuff, so deep, deep reservoir of films and rabbit
holes for folks to explore.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
I mean to watch those scenes again. An incredible, incredible
career Val Kilmer. We got more coming up in ninety seconds,
but first, let's find out what's trending in the wide
world of sports. From someone who decided I'm going to
bring in my show, Heo Tani MVP bobblehead and put
it on social media for everyone to see. It's Manzi Bolagos.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
That is true.
Speaker 7 (26:55):
Well, I came from work to this work. You wanted
me to leave it in the car?
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Wait, how did you get a bobblehead before fans did? No,
I did.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
The fans were already in.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I don't know about that, but that's fat.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
You're just making stuff up now.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
No no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 7 (27:12):
And the guests were in by forty five.
Speaker 8 (27:18):
The gate's early two forty five, and so when I
walked out at three point fifteen, I was able to
grab one.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Well, i'll tell you one thing. You walked in with that. Tonight,
Frostburg is going to walk out with it.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Yeah, it's going to be super cute. When he has
a broken leg, it's gonna be super cute.
Speaker 8 (27:34):
No, no, no, Frostburg broken leg and I will have
my bobblehead and I will tonight.
Speaker 7 (27:40):

that picture.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (27:44):
Oh yeah, yeah, I'll put the bobblehead on his broken leg.
That'll be the picture I take.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
And then like DFC would be would be would be
Radio Optagon and it would be pictures of Mancey and Frostburg.
You know, radio producer ends up with broken leg for
trying to.
Speaker 7 (28:01):
Take Bobby ahead exactly. I mean, listen, it rights itself.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
I mean right, first one probably handed out today. Correct,
this one? No, no much fit that thing's worth when.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I take it.
Speaker 7 (28:11):
It's had anything. That's what's so funny. It's so funny.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
Well, we'll tag it in the eBay listing from the
personal collection of one monsign.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
I will wave to you from my mansion.
Speaker 8 (28:23):
All right, guys, we're gonna start in baseball because there's
one game left and it's the Dodgers game Braves looking
for their first one of this season.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Believe it or not, they are up five to three.
Speaker 8 (28:32):
It's the top of the seventh inning in La Anthony
Won't be hit a three run homer in the ninth inning,
but it wasn't enough for the Yankees.
Speaker 7 (28:39):
Diamondbacks still edged them four to three.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
All Star Second Basement for Arizona, Kettle Marta did agree
to a six year, one hundred and sixteen million dollar extension.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
Phillies pitcher Zach Willer seven.
Speaker 8 (28:50):
Innings pitch, three hits, one run, and ten strikeouts as
the Phillies outscored the Rockies five to one.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
In the NBA, we got some games going on.
Speaker 8 (28:58):
The Mavericks have taken the lead from the hull They're
up one eleven to one oh nine with about six
minutes to go.
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Anthony Davis thirty two points and thirteen rebounds so far
in this one.
Speaker 8 (29:08):
Late in the second quarter, it's the Thunder who have
a fifty seven to forty five lead over the Piston,
Shay Gilges Alexander leading the way with fifteen points. The
Cavaliers completed the comeback. They topped the Knicks one twenty
four to one oh five. Calves were down by fifteen
at one point. New York falls to zero to six
on the season against the top two teams in the East,
Cleveland and Boston. The Wizards had a one sixteen to
(29:30):
one to eleven win over the Kings. Sacramento has lost
seven out of their last eight games, and they're trying
to get in that play in spot.
Speaker 7 (29:37):
The Heat snapped the Celtics nine game winning streak.
Speaker 8 (29:39):
They came out on top one twenty four to one
oh three, and the Rockets crushed the Jazz one forty
three to one oh five.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Clinching a playoff spot for the first time since twenty nineteen.
Speaker 8 (29:49):
Twenty twenty, and Dylan Brooks did get a technical foul
for kicking Collin Sexton, you know, his little kicks that
he likes to do. His sixteenth tech of the season
lead to a one game suspension if it upholds, and
it probably will because he definitely did a little kicky
flip like he likes to do, the little kicks.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
That's what they called the dance. A lane dude on
side felt.
Speaker 7 (30:11):
Yes, yes, did you see it because it's little Yeah,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
What he does, that's what he does.
Speaker 7 (30:15):
That's what he does, so it'll probably be a pelt. Okay,
back to you guys, Hey.
Speaker 5 (30:19):
Smith thinking buy one of those bobbleheads for one hundred
and fifty. They're going between one hundred and forty five
and one hundred and eighty. Yeah, but that's not the
first one handed out.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
No, that's right. If we get off that came, that
was truly the first from us. That's not the first
one broke the seal for me.

Listen. Here's what's going to happen is is one of
us is going to have to talk to you about
something very important. Sure, and and then we'll make something up. Sure,
and then somebody else is going to walk out with
the bobblehead. Yeah, it's that works.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
That's real cute, real cute again.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Teleco'bout three lines today.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
She's gonna have it on her back, like like Luke
carrying Yoda in uh em Fire strikes Back. I got
too much craft. I don't need another bobblehead. Yeah, but
not that, not if I make it into a torpedo bobblehead.
But they sell it for ten grand more.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
Yes, if we're able to figure that out and exploit
the marketplace.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
I'm in okay telling you make it a torpedo bobblehead.
Manzi right here, because Manzi works for the Dodgers. Mozzi.
You've got those those big torpedo bobblehead ones too, right,
weren't there one hundred of them just going out to everybody?
Speaker 8 (31:37):
So actually funny that you say that they dropped off
our box, like our They drop off the boxes for
the employees in each department, and we were like, is
there anything special on these? And the guy that dropped
them off was like, yes, but we don't know what
it is, because you know how another ones it was
like a great jersey that you.
Speaker 7 (31:52):
Were like on the lookout for.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Oh yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 8 (31:55):
So he says that there is something special, but we
haven't figured it out, and that they purposely like didn't
tell anybody. And I've tried to look online and nobody
has posted. I haven't heard anything. But when they dropped
off the boxes, they were like, there's there are some
quote unquote special ones, but we don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
What they are.
Speaker 7 (32:10):
Ah, we'll be on the lookout. We will be on

So both ah, you are correct. You are correct with that. Okay.
I'll allow this song tonight, and I mean allow it
in my head. I won't get mad at it. I'll
allow this song tonight.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Big stuff out of the NBA, say you know not
the Knicks blowing a big lead against the Cavaliers and losing.
Oh cares Nick Jeb Yeah, well, look, it was fun
when the Knicks were winning by by thirteen in the
first half, when they were shooting seventy percent from the floor.
But no, they're not going to keep that up. No, no, no,
not gonna happen again. What do I keep saying? The
level of play, the level of talent that the Cavaliers,
(36:03):
Celtics and thunder have way better than everybody else. Still
still way.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Better Cavaliers, Joe, Because we talked a lot about Cleveland yesterday.
With the changing of the rule books from the NFL.
So now Otto Graham is tied with Tom Brady as
the greatest quarterback of all time?
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Go can you that going to Pats.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Quick? What's his name spell backwards? Quick? Quick? Oh?
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Well, the Orange.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
So this big story today out of the NBA that
I just look at it and I shake my head
and go, this is the guy that just doesn't get
it right. So the league is going to look into
Ja Morant and the finger guns that he gave towards
the Warriors bench late in their victory last night. It
(36:51):
was a back and forth with Buddy Heal. They're gonna
look at his gesture as well. That happened before Moran's
finger gun motions. Member of the league, both the NFL
the NBA very cognizant. If we don't want to celebrate guns,
we don't want this, we don't want this in the game.
Now you look at this and go, Okay, here's the thing.
But you know, is it figure guns? How big a
deal is it? Is the league going overboard? Are they not?
(37:13):
But I keep coming back to this. The one guy
in the league, the one guy who can't really be
seen doing the finger guns, is John Morant. He's the
one guy because he's gotten suspended twice for brandishing guns
on the internet. All right. He had two suspensions from
(37:34):
the NBA because he brandished a firearm on social media.
I like the word. We always say brand bran. Nothing
else gets brandished except for firearms. We're brandishing them. Two suspensions, right,
first one in March of twenty twenty three, the next
one the first twenty five games of the following year.
He's been in all kinds of trouble with guns. There
(37:56):
was the report of the pickup game with the teenager,
and the teenager said he was he was attacked and
the gun was involved. And this is just I look
at this and I go, I don't think he's ever
gonna get it. And I wonder how much longer John
Moran's gonna be in the league because he knows you
can't do something like this. He knows you can't, and
he still does it. It's like if you told John Morant, Okay, dude,
(38:18):
I got a million dollars for you. What do I
have to do? You have to go with this room
for ten minutes? Okay, what's in the room? Here's a room.
It's like a mini Davidbusters. It's a big man cave.
It's got a television. It's a four K TV with
any show you want on there. It's got video games
with anything you want to play, the most update video games.
But it's also got everything else you would want. It's
(38:39):
got old school video games, it's got foosball, it's got
whatever else you want. All this room is just a
complete guy room. So what do I have to do?
All you have to do is be in this room
for ten minutes and not play foosball. That's what I
gotta do. Yes, just be in the room for ten
minutes and not play foosball anything else like it. Yes,
(39:00):
all stuff on TV, the recliners. The chairs here, they're
all self massaged chairs. All they're fantastic. Man. It's anything
you want, Joe, ten minutes in the room. Okay, great, yep,
that's all you have. Ten minute, don't play foosball, and
ten minutes I come in. If you're not playing foosball,
I got a million dollars for you. Okay, great, You
leave the room and you come back in ten minutes later.
And not only is Ja Moran playing foosball, they've moved
(39:22):
all the furniture round to make rooms so we could play.
He's got people in there with him playing foosball so
they can have a game. And he asked you, hey,
can you grab them? We lost a couple of balls
and they shot out of the out of the game.
They're they're they're they're over there behind under the TV.
Can you grab them for me? That's job Morant.
Speaker 5 (39:38):
But I already have defense put together. I thought about
this on the overnight because we did this live as
it was happening. Torres in for you last night. He's
off to San Antonio for the Final four, and it
was something we we watched transpire and talking with Frostburg
about like what the hell and like immediately right, we
talked about it from the pragmatic Here we are all
of the suspension, all the stuff you laid out.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Here's my defense.
Speaker 5 (40:00):
If I'm Jahn Moran, i am celebrating the re release
and tour that Kevin Smith is doing for Dogma, and
I'm emulating the Buddy christ That's all I was doing,
showing love to Buddy Healed.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
How about that.
Speaker 5 (40:16):
It's a similar thing, right, If you can't look at
him the right right perspective, it's the same hand gesture
he is, Yes.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
You're Dogma back. He's trying to make Dogma happen. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
I always enjoyed that one.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Trying to make it happen. Yeah, if you hadn't make
it happen in twenty five years, you're not gonna make it.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
Well, it's a nice cult classic.
Speaker 5 (40:33):
Unfortunately, you know, with all the Weinstein stuff or whatever,
it kind of fell into this weird space where it
wasn't available. So bootleg copies and old copies of the
DVDs are really worth a lot of money. But now
there's a new world of rights holding that can be had,
and Kevin Smith can go profit again.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Okay, I'll go this for you. How about this, because
here's while I'll win, I will allow you to have
that happen. I will allow you to make that a
thing and give its excuse as long as Adam Silver
knows what dogma is. Okay, good, So you don't wait
because she starts sending emails about dogma chairs whatever.
Speaker 5 (41:09):
What the commissioner's address is right now? There is no
way to send you a day to make sure I
get my point across. They're in this blank and stuff.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
No way, we got big stuff out of the NFL
coming up next, Jason and Mike. This is Fox Sports Radio.
