Jason Smith: "I get the NFL part of this because they're super hyper to concussions, right? Obviously, you get hit, you get jarred, players do smelling salts on the sideline so they can clear their head to get back in the game..."

Hello, Welcome inside final hour tonight the Jason Smith Show

few hours away from the Mets getting no hit for real.
You never know could happen.

You know.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I needed those legal NFL smelling salts after after the
game was over.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
As long as you bring your own, you're all good.
I mean on a plus side, I mean, you can't
get no hit tomorrow. No, that is true. Off, No,
it's good. You mean you can get fired on your
day off, but you can't get no hit.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Here's the thing, Like, like how much. Yeah, you know,
because I talk about, you know, coffee and how great
coffee is. Right, it's a wonderful, favoring coffee.
Speaker 3 (01:24):

Speaker 1 (01:28):
I went to So here's the thing, right, So I
went to Starbucks last yesterday.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I tell you this. I was so mad about this.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Today I go to Starbucks just yesterday, and yesterday might
as well have been a lifetime ago. It's a story time.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I go to Starbucks and I get a drink. I
get a mocha, like for the beginning of the show.
And I know what I normally do. I have half
of its. I want to have a whole thing. I
want to be up all the way, but I have
half of it.

I get a moke.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I got a coffeema says that, well, it says it
on the thing mocha.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
So I order mo Yeah, I'm looking at him. Who says.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
You know who says it two thumbs.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Chat a mocha? No way, that way.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Everything I've ever seen has like five names. There's nothing
called mocha.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
No it's it says it says mocha la tes That's okay, okay, but.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That's another word.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
But I mean if he just says he wants a large.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
T shirt ty shirts complete. Uh, thinking of coffee is
from what he sees on television.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Words.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I'll have a vanilla bean whip twisted lemon with a
with a cinnamon and some cardimen.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
But I also want oat milk.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
And if you don't have oat milk, I'll have the
almond milk, but only half a serving of almond milk.
And I'll take a half pump of raspberry. If you
don't have the raspberry, I want the all natural organic. Like,
that's not how it works in all these coffee shoes. Sure,
it's not how you think it does, but that's not
how it works, right. I don't believe you.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
So I go.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
So I go to Starbucks and I said, I'll get
a drink. So I get a drink and I have
half of it. I bring it home and I'm getting
ready to come into work tonight, and I'm like, okay, great,
I'm gonna heat it up and I'm going to have
the rest of it. And so I put it in
the microwave. What well, I gotta heat it up?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
What do you do?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Hell? You reheated bad coffee? No, well, I hadn't cough.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I had the half coffee was in the refrigerator, so
it wouldn't go bad.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Hit it up. There's no bearing on the Mets.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Your bad decisions that got nearly got the Mets.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
No hit.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
So I put the cup in the in the in
the microwave to uh, you know, heat it up a bit,
and all of a sudden, you know, it's going around.
And I put it in for like one of those
minute plus boo hit minutplus. Okay, great, it's going And
as like thirty seconds I started, I start hearing and
I'm like, what's going on? And I see a spark
and I'm like, what the hell? And I opened the
(03:46):
microwave and I go, what what the hell? And it's
just a you know, the the plastic cup the Starbucks.
I'm like, how the hell is this thing sparking? I
don't understand, and and I go, did something fun? So
I take the cup and I go to pour it
out and in it and the bottom was a like
a a the top of a of a yogurt. No, yeah,
(04:09):
like that was with it. And I'm like, oh my goodness.
So someone so the guy that.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Yeah, you gotta go back and get yourself some free coffee.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Right that made it somehow opened whatever he opened, yogurt,
whatever it was, and somehow this got into the bottom
of my cup, and so I put it in the microwave.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Look, I got it. I took it out. You gotta
go back there, and you're singing, David Byrne. You could
have been burning down my house. Look what you did.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I could havessued, say, hey, I could have sued Starbucks.
Called Jordan Schultz. Calls called Jordan Schultz. I I could
have sued Starbucks. I didn't think about that. I should
have let it blow up in the microwave. You owe
me one one microwave escalated quickly like wow. I'm like,
oh my god. I'm like what now, I'm like that.
Now I had to go someplace else.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
You get a drink. It's like you bought some kind
of Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
So I went to McDonalds and I together to get
a because I knew they'd have it.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
I knew that they don't have aluminum food.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah, but maybe it's ground up really small. You can't
really taste it really fine. Yeah, it's like gold schlog
your palettes used to you can't even taste it.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I'm like, whoa, this is like a yogurt top. And
I showed Pam and I go look at it. She goes, wow.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Okay, No, there's a million things wrong with this. And
the one you got, the thing at the bottom of
your cups, yeah, clearly is just wrong. The other is
could have literally started a fire. Yeah, could have blown
up your microwave. Man, that's worse than like when we've
had burnt popcorn up in the air and that smell
pervades the hallways.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Had a lawsuit, man, I had a lawsuit. I could
have got you know, fancy. You could have been a
huge prepper.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
No I didn't.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I didn't have it. I had to say or like it.
This is the second day. No, this is the second day.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Taste was good.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
No, it wasn't the you know, the yogurt taste wasn't
in there. I just I was like, because it tasted
like a normal drink when I had the first half
of it last night, I just didn't know this thing
was at the bottom of it.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Ah, this is two days in a row. I've had
bad I've had bad drink experiences. Man, this is tough.
The other day I had.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I ordered amocha with a with a raspberry two days ago, right,
I ordered to mocha with a raspberry pump in it?
All right, great, and I want I wanted, Uh, the
raspberry pump was your first, and I wanted. I wanted
the extra shot of espresso. Right, so I got two
shots of espresso. A right, I get it. It's really hot.
So I wait, I drive away, get all the way
to pick up Zoe, and I got dream and I say, hey,
(06:31):
I got a drink for you. How's your drink?
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Great? I go down mine and go, oh, this is awful.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
And I realized she forgot to put the the barista
forgot to put the the chocolate in, so there's no
So it was just like we got a raspberry whatever
dark coffee with a raspberry pump and an extra puppet.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
It tasted terror.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
No, what she did was made the point for you
of the raspberry pump was a bad idea. She took
out the chocolate part of it to make you learn
a less.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
So here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
So now the guy with the foil thing is really prob.
That's really bugging me out. Yeah, no, that's wrong.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
But this is part of my fire because I went
to I went to the I went to the Jason Smith,
got a coffee, didn't like it, got another, didn't like
that when the Mets almost got no hit. Uh, it
keeps coming back.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Is it?
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Like?
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yes? Eventually ends up leading to the I go get it, William,
I go get the drink at the at the other
coffee place that that Bearissa didn't make it right.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
So I'm upset. So I'm upset.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
So I drive into work and I go to Starbucks
because I feel like I want a good drink. Okay
that I get the first half of that. I bring
that half home today I go to half the second.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Half of it.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Final it's got a your yogurt top in it, and
I'm like, now I'm mad about that one.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
You know how you solve all this problem? Make your
own damn call.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
It's a lot cheaper.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
My whole point with this, this is where I mean,
you're stirring on the economy if you're doing it that way.
Necessarily at the same level.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Here's my point. You control beans.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Get yourself some nice water, maybe some distilled water here,
you pour that in and you make yourself a nice
coffee lot cheaper.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Yeah, but here's the point.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
You don't have the agnimation of someone else screwing up
your day by forgetting the chocolate, by trying to burn
down your house. Well, did you piss that guy off
another time the house there?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
No, Because my point is to get to this big
NFL story Pitera Alonzo, Francisco Lindor Wan Sodo Brandon Neimo.
So my point is this is that, Okay, so if
I go get a drink, it's about six bucks, right,
no matter where you go, whether it's Starbucks or Coffee
Bean or or if I go to three ten Coffee
or Alfred whatever it is, it's about six bucks to
get it.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah, so it's about six bucks, right, depending if you
want to get an extra shot in there. But you
think about six bucks, all right, it's that's six bucks
a day. Uh, you know, maybe five days a week.
So that's thirty bucks. Okay, thirty bucks a week for coffee.
That's my that's my coffee budget. So I think about that. Now,
how much your smelling salts, because much for the NFL
says that you can actually use smelling salts.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Big NFL star own you can use smelling salts. They're
not banned. George Kittle was very upset about this.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
The other banned from the team. They're banned from the
distributing that. Yeah, the team can physicians can't have them,
can't give them.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
But you can bring your up.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
You can b yoss, you can bring your own smelling salts.
And it was a big story yesterday, but now you
do it now, likely because the NFL is going and
the teams are saying, okay, there's liability here.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
We're very bad.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
We're nervous about concussions, and we don't want someone to
avoid a concussion by being able to use smelling salts. Right,
So okay, so now but now you can use asking
any neu neurological issues having within the game.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Uh so, look, they're still eventually going to get to
the point where they're saying, well, we were able to
cover it up all these years, so you owe us money.
You can buy a ten pack for fifteen ninety. Ok.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I get this, And the NFL should have the headline
saying NFL will still allow smelling salts, and the sub
headline would be NFL says my name is Bennett and
I in it.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Yeah no, but that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Nothing so like because I've never used smelling salts before,
Like if smelling salts because I want smelling salts to
give me the same experience that coffee brings, although I
like the taste of coffee. However, if smelling salts are cheaper,
and it turns out that it's like pennies on the
dollar and all I gotta do is take a whiff
of us of one smelling salt, that I'm starting to
feel okay, Like, would the price of the smelling salts,
(10:24):
if it's that cheaper, be worth any potential medical side
effect that I could get by using smelling salts? Because
George Kittle says, Hey, I'm he's in every every drive
smelling salt user, Like I'm not a smelling salt user
because I get hit and you know, my head gets
a little crazy. I want to make sure i'm sharp. No,
I I'd use the smelling salts because I'm want to
be laser focused every time we have the football. Like
(10:47):
if the price of smell, like, what would I need?
What's the equivalent in smelling salts of one cup of
coffee or a moocha? Like, what's the equivalent? Like if
I could buy if It's like, hey, you need one
smelling salt, and I can get twelve smelling salts for
thirty Okay, that's a lot cheaper. So maybe you can
get the boom boom nasal stick vapor flow technology.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Boom boom boom, the Nagle stick boom boom boom. Get
the Nagil stick boom boom boom.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Yeah, that one's a little more expensive, but this gives
you the mint, winter, mint, tropical, and lavender. Right, so
I can get I've not found a coffee one, all right,
just yet, so we're still like looking into that.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
But you can get just for that. You just have
the coffee. You just need to smell the coffee. Go Okay,
I don't. I don't need to pay for the smelling salt.
But if like, like, how many smelling salts do I
need to get that same feeling of a half a
cup of coffee?
Speaker 3 (11:37):
But I gotta think it's just one hit. You need
to need to be use smelling salts.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Do you know I've never used you never used the
ty shirt you I might have to hang on ty
shirt strikes me as someone that's use smelling salts.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
What what what?
Speaker 4 (11:48):
What's? What do you need, I need one, two, three, Like, what,
what's the number of hits you need? Just one? Just one? Yeah, okay,
it's strong, Okay, it's a really strong. Ammonia is strong.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
We're squatting four or five pounds. Do one of those
rips and throw another forty five on Like it's nothing.
That was steroids, Jason.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
That was he was. They were stiffing steroids.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
No, those things are wild, Okay, all right? So one
hit one is one? All right, So for give me
a garden variety, one one hit wonder, give me a no.
I told you can buy one hundred for seventy bucks,
one hundred for seventy, So I can get one hundred
days worth of coffee for seventy dollars, whereas seventy dollars
of coffee gets me through two weeks.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
So I could get two years.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Worth of smelling if it's the same two years worth
with smelling salts for what it would get me like
three weeks worth of coffee.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Now what about?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Now, find the medical find find the medical results of that,
and tell me how bad it is. They're not equals,
they're not. It seems what wouldn't the smelling salts be more. Yeah, okay,
all right, so that's even better then.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
No, they're not like a one shot of the stick
like it's one hit. It's one hit, right, So what
I did is way okay, yeah, it's not for pansies.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Okay, all right, but I mean all right now, but
but but ask Ai the big medical question, because I
want to ask Ai all my medical questions.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Not a doctor, ask Ai, what what what the impact
is for over what length of time?
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Just yeah, just just just google, Hey, am I. Okay,
I take one smelling salt to day for one hundred days.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
In a row.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
It triggers a sympathetic nervous response.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Okaying, heart rate and breathing. Oh so not great?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Then medical results smelling salts one hundred days.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
There's risks associated with prolonging in hand.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
It's the crosses over your eyes.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Irritation, worsening existing conditions, chemical burns, allergic reactions, masking serious conditions.
We've been talking about dependence and misuse. So I gotta
stick with you now you can become dependent.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
All we're gonna do is, instead of saying all that,
to show the skull and crossbones emoji.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
That's what's gonna happ.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
No, I mean listened using smelling salts regularly, even for
one hundred days, and then it goes through the laundry.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
For one hundred days.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Okay, so coffee is better then, yeah, I would think
medically coffee is going to be better now if you're
drinking as often as I do. I mean, I think
it stunted my growth.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Well, that was your fault. You started coffee when you
were eleven.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Well, I almost lost my leg after having it broken
in high school.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
I don't, I don't, I don't.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Know that coffee is a is a is a panacea
for that?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Well, no, they they warned me that I needed to
keep wiggling my toes and the potential loss of feeling
in my extremities would lead to emergency emergency surgery and
perhaps the loss of the limb. Hence, I started drinking
a lot of coffee to stay awake, so I could
keep wiggling my toes as calling asleep, where I would
know if I suddenly got you my extremity.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Your brothers could have could have sat there and just
moved your toes more near me. Get some naps swollen
to a grotesque level, and a nap in and they.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Would just manipulate your toes for you.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
It was almost a very grizzly situation.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Man. Your brothers could have helped you out more there.
They could They could have. They could have, They could have.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
I could have him know when I see him next week?
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Exit?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
How about a Fresco exit swelling dome coming next? A
story we did yesterday that went viral for us has
a day two element to it that is even crazier.

There are very few songs that made me want to

Speaker 4 (16:20):
This is one of them.
Speaker 8 (16:20):
I don't know why, just want to hit around your
head like a helicopter. Keep making a fist with my hands. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
up out.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Maybe getting a little loose that way, you never know.
The Mets almost got no hit today. The Mets almost
got no hit today. The Mets got a home run
from Soto, but we lost four to one.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Six losses.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Now, since it's a nice day to lose a game again,
all right, So I mean Soto got his smelling Songton
worked up for his final at BET.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I gotta break some hearts here for a second, before
you get to the big ESPNWW story.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
That caning of broken heart.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
If you were hoping to tank for arch Manning. Apparently
that's not going to happen. Arch Manning's grandfather, the Great
Archie Manning, did an interview. This has just gone up
New York Post, has it?
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Even though arch Manning hasn't hinted anything, hasn't really played
at all in college football.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Get me the first big chance to do it. This
year with Quinnyers off to the NFL uh arch.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Manning twenty twenty six. According to Archie quote, arch isn't
gonna do that, meaning heading into the NFL Draft, he
will be at Texas for twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
If I could have bet that the.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
March for arch maybe over before it begins.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yeah, I looked for odds because I would have bet that.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
The march for Archie.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
But even daven Haslam said that right while throwing his
guy under the bus. Yeah, of the procurement of Shador
Sanders last last week, I think going, hey, hey, he
was the guy that wanted door. And then he talked
about knowing the Manning family, because that's when folks are
starting to connect those shots, going he's gonna They're gonna
tank and they're gonna like, no, no, if if the
family is consistent, he ain't coming out because you don't
(18:19):
even know if he's any good yet. No, No, he's fast.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
You saw you saw they pulled it with Eli Manning
making the trade from the Charge to the Giants. But
is this more Arch Manning is not coming out or
is more we are telling everybody he's not coming out
because we really want two shots if we can to
see who's gonna get the number one pick. If we
don't like to get the number one pick this year,
we're gonna wait till next year. If we like it
this year, we could always say we.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Change our mind. Hey, you were coming out coming out
of the draft. We love you, Chicago. Yeah, I'm get well.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
I mean maybe that's part of it. But the other
is the fuzzy math of how many starts you have
before you come to the NFL. I want to think
that the Manning family is gonna be smart about, you know,
and judicious of he's gonna get enough reps to where
it's it's a surety not only that he's number one,
but just that he's gonna go in and succeed.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Think about this, Think about this, Think about what could happen. Okay, wow,
we find it taken all these years, who could be
the worst team in the NFL this year?
Speaker 4 (19:14):
The Saints. Saints could be the worst.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Hey, we got the number one pick, arch Man and going,
h no, I know what a great story would be,
all the highlights of Grandpa Yeah, yeah, no, no, not
doing it.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
But come on, man, it's made the order for us.
We drafted Tyler. Shuck, he's probably gonna start for us.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
Come on, man, no, not anybody not coming, not coming.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
Just think about how that would work for the really,
say Spencer. Rattlers looked, okay, yeah, okay, yeah right, well
seeh okay, all right, that's fine.
Speaker 6 (19:45):
Up.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
Who their defensive coordinator is? Arch Arch Thigre. The march
for arches over.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Man, I'm telling you before before it even starts, it
is ended, which so we got to pour one out
a little bit because you know, that's a it's a
tough thing, man, it's tough thing.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
He's trying to side swipe Brandon Staley over.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
I mean, you know, you know you guys play them
on Sunday, right, Frostburg, you play them on Sunday?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
What day is?
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Don't you play them on Sunday? Don't you play the
Saints on Sunday? Today is Wednesday? Don't you Saturday? You
play the Saints?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
What day? What day you play the Saints? Yeah? Don't
you play the Saint Charges? Play the Saints this week? Yeah? Sunday?
Oh my god?
Speaker 5 (20:24):
What what? What?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Where all am I living?
Speaker 5 (20:26):
What?
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Just?
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
He was really trying to make you work for that answer. Hey,
they're prepping for Staley. You think you think they'll let
Stanley call time out or go for it on fourth fourth? Yeah,
wait time out from the defensive coordinator who's he wants
to do it? Just because it's team screaming.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
For the Saints to go for it. Hell, okay, all right,
maybe it'll work. Who knows?
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Yeah the over under I mean the Saints are down
there with with the Browns. So you got that going
for the Jets.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Get ready?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Oh it would It would typically work out for the Jets.
Here they get the number one overall pick and the
guy coming just like Peyton did. It would be it
would be history repeating itself every generation. Because Peyton Manning
was gonna come out in ninety seven and either he
didn't want to go to the Jets or or we
heard the story that Bill Parcells wouldn't guarantee picking him,
which like maybe would be the stupidest thing that Bill
(21:20):
Parcells ever did. Well, he wanted to go back to Tennessee, Yeah,
because he wanted to play in every every Wildcats in
the city.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Every twenty five thirty years.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
A sure fire number one overall pick from the Manning
family will tell the Jets no that's what's gonna work.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
So the Browns at four and a half, and then
at five and a half, a crowded bunch of the Titans, Jets, Saints,
and don't forget.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
About the Giants. They get ready, get ready, Elis. They
got Jackson Dart, They'll be fine.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
So they get Jamis Winston and Russell Wilson in the interim.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
That's great.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
So you know, at some point I'm gonna tell you
Jameis Winston story, but eaton victory. Yesterday we talked about
the big story being ESPN buying the NFL network and
Red Zone channel, and we know we talked about it.
Take that went viral for us on social media that
the general consensus and response from fans was ESPN's gonna
(22:18):
screw this up right from from the ridiculous stuff.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
If they're gonna put Stephen A.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Smith on Red Zone channel, this is a ridiculous possession
by the Eagles. They should be embarrassed. This is awful.
The Cowboys are in the red zone. They should not
let this happen. It's the second quarter, it's fourteen ten,
it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
This is the worst.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
So all the different things they're gonna screw it up
by putting people on that I don't like on Red
Zone or on NFL Network, Or they're gonna make me
sit through interviews with ABC stars from whatever has come
from Agents of Shield to the reboot. They're gonna make
me sit through that during during a Sunday night game.
Or oh, ESPN's two woke and they're gonna ruin what
(22:56):
they're doing. Like the general consensus and optics of ESPN
have never been lower than they are right now. I mean,
for the worldwide leader in sports, they look they do
sports for a bleep and living man. And the reaction
to the fact that ESPN is getting more football programming
is they're just gonna screw it up, right, Like that's
a we talked about that being a big look in
(23:16):
the mirror moment of you need to spend some money
and change the optics because your the opinion of your
company is in the toilet, right it's awful. And now
today the next day, it's a huge announcement that the
WWE is coming to ESPN. It's gonna be on a
bunch of different platforms. There's gonna be a lot of
(23:36):
the big pay per view or the big streaming. Giant
moments are gonna be on and events are gonna be
on ESPN. Now to see, yes, does this means some
of them will be free? Of course there will be.
This means some of them will be pay per view.
Of course, that's kind of what the WWE does.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Depends on how you access ESPN. There.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
If you have ESPN, if you don't, you cannot. You're
gonna pay for some of it. You're not gonna pay
for some of it. This is not an ESPN thing.
This is just a future of sports thing because everything
is going to streaming. Look, NFL games are going to streaming.
And what was the general consensus and reaction to this.
ESPN is gonna screw up WWE. Now I'm gonna have
to pay all this money for it. I don't want
to pay. They're gonna it's gonna be woke programming. All
(24:15):
these different things that that that people are saying about ESPN,
regardless as to how accurate it is, shows you again
that the general opinion of ESPN has never been as
low as it is right now. The two most passionate
fan base is in sports in the United States NFL
WWE most passionate without a doubt nflw then you get
(24:36):
regionalized college football in places but NFLWWE and to a person,
they don't want ESPN to have these sports. ESPN, again,
the worldwide leader in sports fan base, are saying we
don't want them to have this. You need to keep
your fan base happy, because you need your fan base
to say, I want to pay for this premium channel.
I want to pay you to get these events. I
(24:57):
want to be I want to pay them. Okay, paying
to get the red zone. I'm okay paying to get
this or or whatever you're gonna add NFL network to
my tier. You want your fans to be happy, and
they're not. And again, all this money that is out
there they need. They got to realize that this is
the ESPN. This is a low point in the entire
network history. And look, I'm a guy that was there
(25:19):
in the nineties and the two thousands and the early teens,
and I have never seen ESPN at this much of
a low point. So much so, the biggest thing that
that struck me from today from this not so much. Hey,
this is this is people saying what they what they
are about about ESPN, about how they really don't want
(25:39):
them to have the events, but you look at Pat McAfee, Okay,
who is in any event at least the number two
star that ESPN has. I don't like to talk about
talent other networks, but this is a bit because this
is what blows me away more than anything, is that. Look,
he does a lot of appearances on ww' ESPN.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
He and Stephen A.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Smith of the two biggest stars in network. And this
is a big day for ESPN, like, hey, we're announcing
another two second day in a row. We're announcing a
big deal NFL network red Zone a day ago now
WWE and McAfee puts his post on social media where
he says, hey, great partnership. He's excited. But then he
puts out a post and he says, quote, I assume
(26:19):
all the mid level, powerless brum ass suits at ESPN
will attempt to muddy this somehow out of context, leaks ignorant,
anonymous opinions, but in the end, this agreement will outlive
the dinosaurs currently guarding desks in Bristol. Okay, this is
a guy who is the number two start the network
and whatever is going on, like it's not been anything
(26:40):
public going on him fighting like he was a year
ago fighting with executives at ESPN. But this is ESPN
putting out this big announcement. It's a big deal, and
he goes and torches the network on what's supposed to
be a big celebratory day.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
And I mean, this is not a.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Guy that was at ESPN and left and wants to
say bad things about the network, like nothing tells me
of the change ESPN has had and ESPN that I
knew for most of my life. Then here's Pat McAfee
from within the walls of Bristol saying that the bum
ass suits at ESPN are gonna muddy this, somehow would
try to screw it up, and the agreement will outlive
(27:16):
the dinosaurs guarding desks in Bristol, like and you know,
nothing's gonna happen to them, like their times are going
you could. You can't say something like this about where
you work. But here he is saying this, like, really,
ESPN's got to look in the mirror and say, really,
what are we doing? What are we doing where where
our number two, number one or number two star is
saying this about the network. And still fans are saying
(27:38):
that when we get all these big events. They're the
worldwide leader. Nobody wants us to have it. Like you
need to stop and say, Okay, yes, we're spending these
billions of dollars, let's have some millions in places to
have a better optic out there or better reputation in
the industry that we have right now.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
Meanwhile, the NFL, because everybody was mad about the ESPN
side of it, today they announced the deal with U
Skydance Media, which has a stake in They've got a
stake in CBS because of this.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
And then obviously you're talking about Paramount Paramount plus. I
mean Tom Cruise bought that, but it's the idea of
they announced the deal there. So now they're in with
a second broadcast partner. But ESPN's taken all the incoming. Yeah,
brilliant how that works now. But for this, you're looking
at the change of ESPN from once upon a time
(28:29):
it was Sports Center News, and you know, there's a
lot of slap fighting going on and what they are
at this point when you talk about entertainment, and I
have no doubt with McAfee, who's been at the desk
for a lot of these ples and and has been
on and off, some of that needing some rest, but
certainly folks that are a little bit salty within the
(28:50):
building of muddying the waters a little bit more where
that bridge is. You know, you've got the entertainment part
as opposed to raw pure sport that I have no doubt.
Whatever length this was being negotiated, McAfee has had his battles,
(29:10):
So this was just another opportunity to spike the football
on people that may have tried to slow this down
because it takes away from the sports side of ESPN.
So McAfee decided, I'm untouchable, right, but this is let me,
it is a celebratory day of Hey, big deal. Can
we say nice things for day? Nope, I'm gonna say
(29:31):
great deal, but I'm gonna torch the entire night.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
But that's it. Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Well those middle managers who tried to money it up.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Not those guys are tough, they that signed it. But
anybody that wanted to fight in the middle.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Yeah. No, he took out his giant flamethrower.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I mean, this was seth Rollin's entrance pyrotechnics kind of
thing here.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean, Espa, you gotta look, really, if you thought
you had to look in the mirror yesterday, today is
even more. Okay, we gotta figure something out here, man,
we gotta figure stuff out.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Yeah, and look, some folks, depending on who you get
your ESPN through, you may still have to pay. So
you've got to go contact your local cable operator to
decide whether that app launching on the twenty first of August,
whether you've got to pay extra for your ples.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Tell how to find out what's trending in the wide
world of sports. So someone who's turned an a du
at their house into a wrestling ring. It's Mancy Belonda and.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
You know it's a good workout.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Okay, what's your nick if you were a wrestler, what
would your nickname be?
Speaker 6 (30:32):
No, it would be like, let me see, what would
it be?
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Lo Loca? Okayca? Can you say that on the radio?
Does that mean I'm crazy? Little? Okay crazy?
Speaker 1 (30:48):
You could be, or you could be Levita Loca and
then you would have the song and then I would
have to license that.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
Then all right, we'll figure it out. Monty's in the
Superstition backflips off the top run.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
That was quick.
Speaker 9 (31:01):
That was really quick, Alex, I mean that's well done,
well done.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Yes, just had a different finishing move than the works
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (31:11):
Loves the Clippers, but they really.
Speaker 9 (31:13):
Staying Wow yeah Wow Wow three kick bobbleheads.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
Yeah, but ahead burn.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Oh yeah, Clippers.
Speaker 9 (31:26):
Suck all right, Dodgers also sucked earlier today. I wonder
how show Hao Tani felt. You know, he probably felt
like he did when he was an Angel when you
would hear that stat show Heo Tani pitched seven innings,
struck out twenty, had a three run shot in the
Angels loss.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Well that was today, Yeah, so that's where the headline
was always in defeat, in defeat.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Show Show Hao Tani and Mike Trout did all of
these things. Angels lost in defeat.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Show Hao Tani and Mike Trout combined for five home
runs in twelve RBI as the Angels lost nineteen to thirty.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
Exactly.
Speaker 9 (32:00):
That's what happened I think today for Show Hey Otani
is a Dodger. He pitched four innings, struck out eight,
hit home run number thirty nine on the season, which
was his one thousandth career hit, and the Dodgers lost
five to three to the Cardinals at home. The Padres
pulled off the ninth inning comeback against the Diamondbacks. Three
to two was the final score, so now there's just
two games behind the Dodgers in the NL West. The
(32:22):
Mariners held on eight six against the White Sox, and
the Marlins avoided the sweep with the six to four
went over the Astros, so Seattle is now two games
behind Houston in the AL West. The Royals snapped the
Red Sox seven game winning streak, coming out on top
seven to three. Brewers extend their winning streak to six
after topping the Braves five to four, almost a no hitter,
as Gavin Williams, Guardian's pitcher, took a no hitter into
(32:44):
the ninth inning, down to the final out and there
comes met swan Soto hitting a solo home run.
Speaker 6 (32:50):
Cleveland still wins the game four to one. The Yankees
snapped their five game losing streak by beating the Rangers
three to two. Red Sox and outfielder Roman Anthony came
to terms on an eighth your extension worth one hundred
and thirty million. When it comes to the NFL will
The NFLPA sent a message to the players Wednesday night
clarifying that the league's ban on smelling salts only applies
(33:11):
to clubs providing it to the players. Players can still
smell salts as long as they bring their own. So
bring your own beer, bring your own salts.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
Pretty much what it is.
Speaker 6 (33:20):
Other NFL news, quarterback Jayden Daniel's not going to play
in Washington's preseason opener against the Patriots. Rams quarterback Matthew
Stafford received an epidural to deal with an aggravated disc,
but the team still thinks he may be available for
a week one. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones stare reporters that
he is in confident linebacker Michael Parsons is going to
be available for their season opener against the Eagles on Thursday,
(33:41):
September fourth. And in the WNBA, the Aces top the
Valkyrie seventy eight to seventy two. Asia Wilson dropped twenty
seven points in the win. Nothing else was flying about.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
Thank you Laloka, l looka.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
You know you get to tie Otani and Trout together
because they both hit you know, big big marks.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
End today is three hund ninety eighth career home.
Speaker 6 (34:04):
Run away, that's true away, yeah, yeah, And another loss
in another loss.

went to Starbucks last yesterday.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I tell you this. I was so mad about this.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Today I go to Starbucks just yesterday, and yesterday might
as well have been a lifetime ago. It's a story time.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I go to Starbucks and I get a drink. I
get a mocha, like for the beginning of the show.
And I know what I normally do. I have half
of its. I want to have a whole thing. I

So I order mo Yeah, I'm looking at him. Who says.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
You know who says it two thumbs.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Chat a mocha? No way, that way.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Everything I've ever seen has like five names. There's nothing
called mocha.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
No it's it says it says mocha la tes That's okay, okay, but.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That's another word.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
But I mean if he just says he wants a large.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
T shirt ty shirts complete. Uh, thinking of coffee is
from what he sees on television.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Words.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I'll have a vanilla bean whip twisted lemon with a
with a cinnamon and some cardimen.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
But I also want oat milk.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
And if you don't have oat milk, I'll have the
almond milk, but only half a serving of almond milk.
And I'll take a half pump of raspberry. If you
don't have the raspberry, I want the all natural organic. Like,
that's not how it works in all these coffee shoes. Sure,
it's not how you think it does, but that's not
how it works, right. I don't believe you.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
So I go.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
So I go to Starbucks and I said, I'll get
a drink. So I get a drink and I have
half of it. I bring it home and I'm getting
ready to come into work tonight, and I'm like, okay, great,
I'm gonna heat it up and I'm going to have
the rest of it. And so I put it in
the microwave. What well, I gotta heat it up?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
What do you do?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Hell? You reheated bad coffee? No, well, I hadn't cough.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I had the half coffee was in the refrigerator, so
it wouldn't go bad.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Hit it up. There's no bearing on the Mets.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Your bad decisions that got nearly got the Mets.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
No hit.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
So I put the cup in the in the in
the microwave to uh, you know, heat it up a bit,
and all of a sudden, you know, it's going around.
And I put it in for like one of those
minute plus boo hit minutplus. Okay, great, it's going And
as like thirty seconds I started, I start hearing and
I'm like, what's going on? And I see a spark
and I'm like, what the hell? And I opened the
(03:46):
microwave and I go, what what the hell? And it's
just a you know, the the plastic cup the Starbucks.
I'm like, how the hell is this thing sparking? I
don't understand, and and I go, did something fun? So
I take the cup and I go to pour it
out and in it and the bottom was a like
a a the top of a of a yogurt. No, yeah,
(04:09):
like that was with it. And I'm like, oh my goodness.
So someone so the guy that.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Yeah, you gotta go back and get yourself some free coffee.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Right that made it somehow opened whatever he opened, yogurt,
whatever it was, and somehow this got into the bottom
of my cup, and so I put it in the microwave.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Look, I got it. I took it out. You gotta
go back there, and you're singing, David Byrne. You could
have been burning down my house. Look what you did.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I could havessued, say, hey, I could have sued Starbucks.
Called Jordan Schultz. Calls called Jordan Schultz. I I could
have sued Starbucks. I didn't think about that. I should
have let it blow up in the microwave. You owe
me one one microwave escalated quickly like wow. I'm like,
oh my god. I'm like what now, I'm like that.
Now I had to go someplace else.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
You get a drink. It's like you bought some kind
of Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
So I went to McDonalds and I together to get
a because I knew they'd have it.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
I knew that they don't have aluminum food.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah, but maybe it's ground up really small. You can't
really taste it really fine. Yeah, it's like gold schlog
your palettes used to you can't even taste it.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I'm like, whoa, this is like a yogurt top. And
I showed Pam and I go look at it. She goes, wow.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Okay, No, there's a million things wrong with this. And
the one you got, the thing at the bottom of
your cups, yeah, clearly is just wrong. The other is
could have literally started a fire. Yeah, could have blown
up your microwave. Man, that's worse than like when we've
had burnt popcorn up in the air and that smell
pervades the hallways.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Had a lawsuit, man, I had a lawsuit. I could
have got you know, fancy. You could have been a
huge prepper.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
No I didn't.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I didn't have it. I had to say or like it.
This is the second day. No, this is the second day.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Taste was good.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
No, it wasn't the you know, the yogurt taste wasn't
in there. I just I was like, because it tasted
like a normal drink when I had the first half
of it last night, I just didn't know this thing
was at the bottom of it.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Ah, this is two days in a row. I've had
bad I've had bad drink experiences. Man, this is tough.
The other day I had.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I ordered amocha with a with a raspberry two days ago, right,
I ordered to mocha with a raspberry pump in it?
All right, great, and I want I wanted, Uh, the
raspberry pump was your first, and I wanted. I wanted
the extra shot of espresso. Right, so I got two
shots of espresso. A right, I get it. It's really hot.
So I wait, I drive away, get all the way
to pick up Zoe, and I got dream and I say, hey,
(06:31):
I got a drink for you. How's your drink?
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Great? I go down mine and go, oh, this is awful.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
And I realized she forgot to put the the barista
forgot to put the the chocolate in, so there's no
So it was just like we got a raspberry whatever
dark coffee with a raspberry pump and an extra puppet.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
It tasted terror.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
No, what she did was made the point for you
of the raspberry pump was a bad idea. She took
out the chocolate part of it to make you learn
a less.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
So here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
So now the guy with the foil thing is really prob.
That's really bugging me out. Yeah, no, that's wrong.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
But this is part of my fire because I went
to I went to the I went to the Jason Smith,
got a coffee, didn't like it, got another, didn't like
that when the Mets almost got no hit. Uh, it
keeps coming back.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Is it?
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Like?
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yes? Eventually ends up leading to the I go get it, William,
I go get the drink at the at the other
coffee place that that Bearissa didn't make it right.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
So I'm upset. So I'm upset.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
So I drive into work and I go to Starbucks
because I feel like I want a good drink. Okay
that I get the first half of that. I bring
that half home today I go to half the second.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Half of it.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Final it's got a your yogurt top in it, and
I'm like, now I'm mad about that one.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
You know how you solve all this problem? Make your
own damn call.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
It's a lot cheaper.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
My whole point with this, this is where I mean,
you're stirring on the economy if you're doing it that way.
Necessarily at the same level.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Here's my point. You control beans.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Get yourself some nice water, maybe some distilled water here,
you pour that in and you make yourself a nice
coffee lot cheaper.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Yeah, but here's the point.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
You don't have the agnimation of someone else screwing up
your day by forgetting the chocolate, by trying to burn
down your house. Well, did you piss that guy off
another time the house there?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
No, Because my point is to get to this big
NFL story Pitera Alonzo, Francisco Lindor Wan Sodo Brandon Neimo.
So my point is this is that, Okay, so if
I go get a drink, it's about six bucks, right,
no matter where you go, whether it's Starbucks or Coffee
Bean or or if I go to three ten Coffee
or Alfred whatever it is, it's about six bucks to
get it.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah, so it's about six bucks, right, depending if you
want to get an extra shot in there. But you
think about six bucks, all right, it's that's six bucks
a day. Uh, you know, maybe five days a week.
So that's thirty bucks. Okay, thirty bucks a week for coffee.
That's my that's my coffee budget. So I think about that. Now,
how much your smelling salts, because much for the NFL
says that you can actually use smelling salts.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Big NFL star own you can use smelling salts. They're
not banned. George Kittle was very upset about this.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
The other banned from the team. They're banned from the
distributing that. Yeah, the team can physicians can't have them,
can't give them.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
But you can bring your up.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
You can b yoss, you can bring your own smelling salts.
And it was a big story yesterday, but now you
do it now, likely because the NFL is going and
the teams are saying, okay, there's liability here.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
We're very bad.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
We're nervous about concussions, and we don't want someone to
avoid a concussion by being able to use smelling salts. Right,
So okay, so now but now you can use asking
any neu neurological issues having within the game.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Uh so, look, they're still eventually going to get to
the point where they're saying, well, we were able to
cover it up all these years, so you owe us money.
You can buy a ten pack for fifteen ninety. Ok.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I get this, And the NFL should have the headline
saying NFL will still allow smelling salts, and the sub
headline would be NFL says my name is Bennett and
I in it.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Yeah no, but that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Nothing so like because I've never used smelling salts before,
Like if smelling salts because I want smelling salts to
give me the same experience that coffee brings, although I
like the taste of coffee. However, if smelling salts are cheaper,
and it turns out that it's like pennies on the
dollar and all I gotta do is take a whiff
of us of one smelling salt, that I'm starting to
feel okay, Like, would the price of the smelling salts,
(10:24):
if it's that cheaper, be worth any potential medical side
effect that I could get by using smelling salts? Because
George Kittle says, Hey, I'm he's in every every drive
smelling salt user, Like I'm not a smelling salt user
because I get hit and you know, my head gets
a little crazy. I want to make sure i'm sharp. No,
I I'd use the smelling salts because I'm want to
be laser focused every time we have the football. Like
(10:47):
if the price of smell, like, what would I need?
What's the equivalent in smelling salts of one cup of
coffee or a moocha? Like, what's the equivalent? Like if
I could buy if It's like, hey, you need one
smelling salt, and I can get twelve smelling salts for
thirty Okay, that's a lot cheaper. So maybe you can
get the boom boom nasal stick vapor flow technology.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Boom boom boom, the Nagle stick boom boom boom. Get
the Nagil stick boom boom boom.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Yeah, that one's a little more expensive, but this gives
you the mint, winter, mint, tropical, and lavender. Right, so
I can get I've not found a coffee one, all right,
just yet, so we're still like looking into that.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
But you can get just for that. You just have
the coffee. You just need to smell the coffee. Go Okay,
I don't. I don't need to pay for the smelling salt.
But if like, like, how many smelling salts do I
need to get that same feeling of a half a
cup of coffee?
Speaker 3 (11:37):
But I gotta think it's just one hit. You need
to need to be use smelling salts.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Do you know I've never used you never used the
ty shirt you I might have to hang on ty
shirt strikes me as someone that's use smelling salts.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
What what what?
Speaker 4 (11:48):
What's? What do you need, I need one, two, three, Like, what,
what's the number of hits you need? Just one? Just one? Yeah, okay,
it's strong, Okay, it's a really strong. Ammonia is strong.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
We're squatting four or five pounds. Do one of those
rips and throw another forty five on Like it's nothing.
That was steroids, Jason.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
That was he was. They were stiffing steroids.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
No, those things are wild, Okay, all right? So one
hit one is one? All right, So for give me
a garden variety, one one hit wonder, give me a no.
I told you can buy one hundred for seventy bucks,
one hundred for seventy, So I can get one hundred
days worth of coffee for seventy dollars, whereas seventy dollars
of coffee gets me through two weeks.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
So I could get two years.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Worth of smelling if it's the same two years worth
with smelling salts for what it would get me like
three weeks worth of coffee.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Now what about?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Now, find the medical find find the medical results of that,
and tell me how bad it is. They're not equals,
they're not. It seems what wouldn't the smelling salts be more. Yeah, okay,
all right, so that's even better then.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
No, they're not like a one shot of the stick
like it's one hit. It's one hit, right, So what
I did is way okay, yeah, it's not for pansies.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Okay, all right, but I mean all right now, but
but but ask Ai the big medical question, because I
want to ask Ai all my medical questions.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Not a doctor, ask Ai, what what what the impact
is for over what length of time?
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Just yeah, just just just google, Hey, am I. Okay,
I take one smelling salt to day for one hundred days.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
In a row.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
It triggers a sympathetic nervous response.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Okaying, heart rate and breathing. Oh so not great?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Then medical results smelling salts one hundred days.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
There's risks associated with prolonging in hand.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
It's the crosses over your eyes.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Irritation, worsening existing conditions, chemical burns, allergic reactions, masking serious conditions.
We've been talking about dependence and misuse. So I gotta
stick with you now you can become dependent.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
All we're gonna do is, instead of saying all that,
to show the skull and crossbones emoji.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
That's what's gonna happ.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
No, I mean listened using smelling salts regularly, even for
one hundred days, and then it goes through the laundry.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
For one hundred days.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Okay, so coffee is better then, yeah, I would think
medically coffee is going to be better now if you're
drinking as often as I do. I mean, I think
it stunted my growth.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Well, that was your fault. You started coffee when you
were eleven.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Well, I almost lost my leg after having it broken
in high school.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
I don't, I don't, I don't.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Know that coffee is a is a is a panacea
for that?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Well, no, they they warned me that I needed to
keep wiggling my toes and the potential loss of feeling
in my extremities would lead to emergency emergency surgery and
perhaps the loss of the limb. Hence, I started drinking
a lot of coffee to stay awake, so I could
keep wiggling my toes as calling asleep, where I would
know if I suddenly got you my extremity.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Your brothers could have could have sat there and just
moved your toes more near me. Get some naps swollen
to a grotesque level, and a nap in and they.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Would just manipulate your toes for you.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
It was almost a very grizzly situation.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Man. Your brothers could have helped you out more there.
They could They could have. They could have, They could have.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
I could have him know when I see him next week?
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Exit?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
How about a Fresco exit swelling dome coming next? A

a day two element to it that is even crazier.

There are very few songs that made me want to

Speaker 4 (16:20):
This is one of them.
Speaker 8 (16:20):
I don't know why, just want to hit around your
head like a helicopter. Keep making a fist with my hands. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
up out.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Maybe getting a little loose that way, you never know.
The Mets almost got no hit today. The Mets almost
got no hit today. The Mets got a home run
from Soto, but we lost four to one.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Six losses.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Now, since it's a nice day to lose a game again,
all right, So I mean Soto got his smelling Songton
worked up for his final at BET.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I gotta break some hearts here for a second, before
you get to the big ESPNWW story.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
That caning of broken heart.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
If you were hoping to tank for arch Manning. Apparently
that's not going to happen. Arch Manning's grandfather, the Great
Archie Manning, did an interview. This has just gone up
New York Post, has it?
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Even though arch Manning hasn't hinted anything, hasn't really played
at all in college football.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Get me the first big chance to do it. This
year with Quinnyers off to the NFL uh arch.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Manning twenty twenty six. According to Archie quote, arch isn't
gonna do that, meaning heading into the NFL Draft, he
will be at Texas for twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
If I could have bet that the.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
March for arch maybe over before it begins.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yeah, I looked for odds because I would have bet that.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
The march for Archie.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
But even daven Haslam said that right while throwing his
guy under the bus. Yeah, of the procurement of Shador
Sanders last last week, I think going, hey, hey, he
was the guy that wanted door. And then he talked
about knowing the Manning family, because that's when folks are
starting to connect those shots, going he's gonna They're gonna
tank and they're gonna like, no, no, if if the
family is consistent, he ain't coming out because you don't
(18:19):
even know if he's any good yet. No, No, he's fast.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
You saw you saw they pulled it with Eli Manning
making the trade from the Charge to the Giants. But
is this more Arch Manning is not coming out or
is more we are telling everybody he's not coming out
because we really want two shots if we can to
see who's gonna get the number one pick. If we
don't like to get the number one pick this year,
we're gonna wait till next year. If we like it
this year, we could always say we.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Change our mind. Hey, you were coming out coming out
of the draft. We love you, Chicago. Yeah, I'm get well.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
I mean maybe that's part of it. But the other
is the fuzzy math of how many starts you have
before you come to the NFL. I want to think
that the Manning family is gonna be smart about, you know,
and judicious of he's gonna get enough reps to where
it's it's a surety not only that he's number one,
but just that he's gonna go in and succeed.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Think about this, Think about this, Think about what could happen. Okay, wow,
we find it taken all these years, who could be
the worst team in the NFL this year?
Speaker 4 (19:14):
The Saints. Saints could be the worst.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Hey, we got the number one pick, arch Man and going,
h no, I know what a great story would be,
all the highlights of Grandpa Yeah, yeah, no, no, not
doing it.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
But come on, man, it's made the order for us.
We drafted Tyler. Shuck, he's probably gonna start for us.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
Come on, man, no, not anybody not coming, not coming.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
Just think about how that would work for the really,
say Spencer. Rattlers looked, okay, yeah, okay, yeah right, well
seeh okay, all right, that's fine.
Speaker 6 (19:45):
Up.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
Who their defensive coordinator is? Arch Arch Thigre. The march
for arches over.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Man, I'm telling you before before it even starts, it
is ended, which so we got to pour one out
a little bit because you know, that's a it's a
tough thing, man, it's tough thing.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
He's trying to side swipe Brandon Staley over.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
I mean, you know, you know you guys play them
on Sunday, right, Frostburg, you play them on Sunday?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
What day is?
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Don't you play them on Sunday? Don't you play the
Saints on Sunday? Today is Wednesday? Don't you Saturday? You
play the Saints?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
What day? What day you play the Saints? Yeah? Don't
you play the Saint Charges? Play the Saints this week? Yeah? Sunday?
Oh my god?
Speaker 5 (20:24):
What what? What?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Where all am I living?
Speaker 5 (20:26):
What?
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Just?
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
He was really trying to make you work for that answer. Hey,
they're prepping for Staley. You think you think they'll let
Stanley call time out or go for it on fourth fourth? Yeah,
wait time out from the defensive coordinator who's he wants
to do it? Just because it's team screaming.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
For the Saints to go for it. Hell, okay, all right,
maybe it'll work. Who knows?
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Yeah the over under I mean the Saints are down
there with with the Browns. So you got that going
for the Jets.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Get ready?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Oh it would It would typically work out for the Jets.
Here they get the number one overall pick and the
guy coming just like Peyton did. It would be it
would be history repeating itself every generation. Because Peyton Manning
was gonna come out in ninety seven and either he
didn't want to go to the Jets or or we
heard the story that Bill Parcells wouldn't guarantee picking him,
which like maybe would be the stupidest thing that Bill
(21:20):
Parcells ever did. Well, he wanted to go back to Tennessee, Yeah,
because he wanted to play in every every Wildcats in
the city.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Every twenty five thirty years.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
A sure fire number one overall pick from the Manning
family will tell the Jets no that's what's gonna work.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
So the Browns at four and a half, and then
at five and a half, a crowded bunch of the Titans, Jets, Saints,
and don't forget.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
About the Giants. They get ready, get ready, Elis. They
got Jackson Dart, They'll be fine.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
So they get Jamis Winston and Russell Wilson in the interim.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
That's great.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
So you know, at some point I'm gonna tell you
Jameis Winston story, but eaton victory. Yesterday we talked about
the big story being ESPN buying the NFL network and
Red Zone channel, and we know we talked about it.
Take that went viral for us on social media that
the general consensus and response from fans was ESPN's gonna
(22:18):
screw this up right from from the ridiculous stuff.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
If they're gonna put Stephen A.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Smith on Red Zone channel, this is a ridiculous possession
by the Eagles. They should be embarrassed. This is awful.
The Cowboys are in the red zone. They should not
let this happen. It's the second quarter, it's fourteen ten,
it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
This is the worst.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
So all the different things they're gonna screw it up
by putting people on that I don't like on Red
Zone or on NFL Network, Or they're gonna make me
sit through interviews with ABC stars from whatever has come
from Agents of Shield to the reboot. They're gonna make
me sit through that during during a Sunday night game.
Or oh, ESPN's two woke and they're gonna ruin what
(22:56):
they're doing. Like the general consensus and optics of ESPN
have never been lower than they are right now. I mean,
for the worldwide leader in sports, they look they do
sports for a bleep and living man. And the reaction
to the fact that ESPN is getting more football programming
is they're just gonna screw it up, right, Like that's
a we talked about that being a big look in
(23:16):
the mirror moment of you need to spend some money
and change the optics because your the opinion of your
company is in the toilet, right it's awful. And now
today the next day, it's a huge announcement that the
WWE is coming to ESPN. It's gonna be on a
bunch of different platforms. There's gonna be a lot of
(23:36):
the big pay per view or the big streaming. Giant
moments are gonna be on and events are gonna be
on ESPN. Now to see, yes, does this means some
of them will be free? Of course there will be.
This means some of them will be pay per view.
Of course, that's kind of what the WWE does.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Depends on how you access ESPN. There.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
If you have ESPN, if you don't, you cannot. You're
gonna pay for some of it. You're not gonna pay
for some of it. This is not an ESPN thing.
This is just a future of sports thing because everything
is going to streaming. Look, NFL games are going to streaming.
And what was the general consensus and reaction to this.
ESPN is gonna screw up WWE. Now I'm gonna have
to pay all this money for it. I don't want
to pay. They're gonna it's gonna be woke programming. All
(24:15):
these different things that that that people are saying about ESPN,
regardless as to how accurate it is, shows you again
that the general opinion of ESPN has never been as
low as it is right now. The two most passionate
fan base is in sports in the United States NFL
WWE most passionate without a doubt nflw then you get
(24:36):
regionalized college football in places but NFLWWE and to a person,
they don't want ESPN to have these sports. ESPN, again,
the worldwide leader in sports fan base, are saying we
don't want them to have this. You need to keep
your fan base happy, because you need your fan base
to say, I want to pay for this premium channel.
I want to pay you to get these events. I
(24:57):
want to be I want to pay them. Okay, paying
to get the red zone. I'm okay paying to get
this or or whatever you're gonna add NFL network to
my tier. You want your fans to be happy, and
they're not. And again, all this money that is out
there they need. They got to realize that this is
the ESPN. This is a low point in the entire
network history. And look, I'm a guy that was there
(25:19):
in the nineties and the two thousands and the early teens,
and I have never seen ESPN at this much of
a low point. So much so, the biggest thing that
that struck me from today from this not so much. Hey,
this is this is people saying what they what they
are about about ESPN, about how they really don't want
(25:39):
them to have the events, but you look at Pat McAfee, Okay,
who is in any event at least the number two
star that ESPN has. I don't like to talk about
talent other networks, but this is a bit because this
is what blows me away more than anything, is that. Look,
he does a lot of appearances on ww' ESPN.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
He and Stephen A.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Smith of the two biggest stars in network. And this
is a big day for ESPN, like, hey, we're announcing
another two second day in a row. We're announcing a
big deal NFL network red Zone a day ago now
WWE and McAfee puts his post on social media where
he says, hey, great partnership. He's excited. But then he
puts out a post and he says, quote, I assume
(26:19):
all the mid level, powerless brum ass suits at ESPN
will attempt to muddy this somehow out of context, leaks ignorant,
anonymous opinions, but in the end, this agreement will outlive
the dinosaurs currently guarding desks in Bristol. Okay, this is
a guy who is the number two start the network
and whatever is going on, like it's not been anything
(26:40):
public going on him fighting like he was a year
ago fighting with executives at ESPN. But this is ESPN
putting out this big announcement. It's a big deal, and
he goes and torches the network on what's supposed to
be a big celebratory day.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
And I mean, this is not a.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Guy that was at ESPN and left and wants to
say bad things about the network, like nothing tells me
of the change ESPN has had and ESPN that I
knew for most of my life. Then here's Pat McAfee
from within the walls of Bristol saying that the bum
ass suits at ESPN are gonna muddy this, somehow would
try to screw it up, and the agreement will outlive
(27:16):
the dinosaurs guarding desks in Bristol, like and you know,
nothing's gonna happen to them, like their times are going
you could. You can't say something like this about where
you work. But here he is saying this, like, really,
ESPN's got to look in the mirror and say, really,
what are we doing? What are we doing where where
our number two, number one or number two star is
saying this about the network. And still fans are saying
(27:38):
that when we get all these big events. They're the
worldwide leader. Nobody wants us to have it. Like you
need to stop and say, Okay, yes, we're spending these
billions of dollars, let's have some millions in places to
have a better optic out there or better reputation in
the industry that we have right now.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
Meanwhile, the NFL, because everybody was mad about the ESPN
side of it, today they announced the deal with U
Skydance Media, which has a stake in They've got a
stake in CBS because of this.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
And then obviously you're talking about Paramount Paramount plus. I
mean Tom Cruise bought that, but it's the idea of
they announced the deal there. So now they're in with
a second broadcast partner. But ESPN's taken all the incoming. Yeah,
brilliant how that works now. But for this, you're looking
at the change of ESPN from once upon a time
(28:29):
it was Sports Center News, and you know, there's a
lot of slap fighting going on and what they are
at this point when you talk about entertainment, and I
have no doubt with McAfee, who's been at the desk
for a lot of these ples and and has been
on and off, some of that needing some rest, but
certainly folks that are a little bit salty within the
(28:50):
building of muddying the waters a little bit more where
that bridge is. You know, you've got the entertainment part
as opposed to raw pure sport that I have no doubt.
Whatever length this was being negotiated, McAfee has had his battles,
(29:10):
So this was just another opportunity to spike the football
on people that may have tried to slow this down
because it takes away from the sports side of ESPN.
So McAfee decided, I'm untouchable, right, but this is let me,
it is a celebratory day of Hey, big deal. Can
we say nice things for day? Nope, I'm gonna say
(29:31):
great deal, but I'm gonna torch the entire night.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
But that's it. Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Well those middle managers who tried to money it up.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Not those guys are tough, they that signed it. But
anybody that wanted to fight in the middle.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Yeah. No, he took out his giant flamethrower.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I mean, this was seth Rollin's entrance pyrotechnics kind of
thing here.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean, Espa, you gotta look, really, if you thought
you had to look in the mirror yesterday, today is
even more. Okay, we gotta figure something out here, man,
we gotta figure stuff out.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Yeah, and look, some folks, depending on who you get
your ESPN through, you may still have to pay. So
you've got to go contact your local cable operator to
decide whether that app launching on the twenty first of August,
whether you've got to pay extra for your ples.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Tell how to find out what's trending in the wide
world of sports. So someone who's turned an a du
at their house into a wrestling ring. It's Mancy Belonda and.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
You know it's a good workout.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Okay, what's your nick if you were a wrestler, what

for the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (31:11):

Speaker 4 (31:19):
Yeah, but ahead burn.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Oh yeah, Clippers.
Speaker 9 (31:26):
Suck all right, Dodgers also sucked earlier today. I wonder
how show Hao Tani felt. You know, he probably felt
like he did when he was an Angel when you
would hear that stat show Heo Tani pitched seven innings,
struck out twenty, had a three run shot in the
Angels loss.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Well that was today, Yeah, so that's where the headline
was always in defeat, in defeat.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Show Show Hao Tani and Mike Trout did all of
these things. Angels lost in defeat.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Show Hao Tani and Mike Trout combined for five home
runs in twelve RBI as the Angels lost nineteen to thirty.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
Exactly.
Speaker 9 (32:00):
That's what happened I think today for Show Hey Otani
is a Dodger. He pitched four innings, struck out eight,
hit home run number thirty nine on the season, which
was his one thousandth career hit, and the Dodgers lost
five to three to the Cardinals at home. The Padres
pulled off the ninth inning comeback against the Diamondbacks. Three
to two was the final score, so now there's just
two games behind the Dodgers in the NL West. The
(32:22):
Mariners held on eight six against the White Sox, and
the Marlins avoided the sweep with the six to four
went over the Astros, so Seattle is now two games
behind Houston in the AL West. The Royals snapped the
Red Sox seven game winning streak, coming out on top
seven to three. Brewers extend their winning streak to six
after topping the Braves five to four, almost a no hitter,
as Gavin Williams, Guardian's pitcher, took a no hitter into
(32:44):
the ninth inning, down to the final out and there
comes met swan Soto hitting a solo home run.
Speaker 6 (32:50):
Cleveland still wins the game four to one. The Yankees
snapped their five game losing streak by beating the Rangers
three to two. Red Sox and outfielder Roman Anthony came
to terms on an eighth your extension worth one hundred
and thirty million. When it comes to the NFL will
The NFLPA sent a message to the players Wednesday night
clarifying that the league's ban on smelling salts only applies
(33:11):
to clubs providing it to the players. Players can still
smell salts as long as they bring their own. So
bring your own beer, bring your own salts.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
Pretty much what it is.
Speaker 6 (33:20):
Other NFL news, quarterback Jayden Daniel's not going to play
in Washington's preseason opener against the Patriots. Rams quarterback Matthew
Stafford received an epidural to deal with an aggravated disc,
but the team still thinks he may be available for
a week one. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones stare reporters that
he is in confident linebacker Michael Parsons is going to
be available for their season opener against the Eagles on Thursday,
(33:41):
September fourth. And in the WNBA, the Aces top the
Valkyrie seventy eight to seventy two. Asia Wilson dropped twenty
seven points in the win. Nothing else was flying about.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
Thank you Laloka, l looka.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
You know you get to tie Otani and Trout together
because they both hit you know, big big marks.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
End today is three hund ninety eighth career home.
