Speaker 1 (00:30):

(00:52):
buying should be. And as Emerson Lake and Palmer One
saying back in the nineteen seventy four seventy five, welcome back,
my friends to the game that will clearly never end.
The Blue Jays and the Yankees are tied at six
in the bottom of the fourth inning this game. We
(01:13):
are going to finish the show tonight and it's still
gonna be going. This game is never going to end. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Anytime you can start a show with Carnievil number nine,
you've won.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
You've won.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
My friend, going back to my birth year of nineteen
seventy three for that seventy three.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Okay, all right, you were there. You were right there,
right on the cut. I was there when you were born.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
I was not.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
No.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Uh maybe in six coming out with purple shorts on already.
Oh yeah, it was lasses backwards hat. Oh yeah, that's Harman. Okay,
we got him. We're gonna take out in the world.
Let's go.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
They got him walking around like he's John Cena. Uh yeah,
we thought this game won. It's never gonna end. No,
but it seemed like it was all one sided, one direction,
and that's where we're headed. And then all of a sudden,
just wait a second, that's what makes this game beautiful.
DJ all right, how can you not be romantic about baseball?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
I'll tell you, and and help by a huge error
this inning, you know, Blue Jays dropping a pop up
that could have made it two outs runner at first
instead one out, two on. So Aaron Judge's home run
off the foul pole in left field ties the game
at six, and again we are in the bottom of
(02:27):
the fourth inning.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
But it's funny, right, We're sitting waiting for the odd
couple to finish their show and to come into the studios,
and as we're setting up, I go, I go, hey,
turn turn to the right. Aaron judges up again. It's
like he just met it. Well, there he is again,
and on the next pitch it goes sailing up. It's
like back back is it going? And then it hits
the bowl.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
And people are going crazy. Guys, they still have to
win this game six to six. Yeah, it's not you.
It's only the fourth And honestly, Judge hits this ball
and it's really a bading. It's kind of an excuse me.
He gets jammed, but look he does a great job
getting out and like he muscles it, and I thought, oh,
and he's starting to watch it, and I'm like, oh,
(03:10):
is he watching to see if this lands down the
line like a whooper over third base? And instead it
hits high off the foul ball. I'm like, how the
hell is a swing? How can you help you can
get home run with a swing like that? He's n
you hit a ball like that with a swing like
that that made I saw. I said, there's no way
that's off the fat. Holy crap, How the hell is
(03:30):
that off the fat? Squat six hundred pounds? Oh wait,
that's shalin hurts. I'm sorry. And we still can't get
the offense, right, still can't uh and already look all myself,
you know, all the social media over the past couple
of days. Right, I had a really good week picking
football this weekend. But my big bold prediction we talked
about this Friday. I said, Hey, Yankees are going to
(03:52):
smoke the Blue Jays, Right, They're gonna They're gonna They're
gonna hit the ball and it's gonna be a short series.
And it's turned out to be the exact opposite. The
other team is matching the ball. And I'm getting so
people go, oh, you gotta talk about that Bowl prediction.
You got wrong. Stick to football, stick to this, stick
to that, stick to hockey, stick to whatever, stick to that,
stick to this, stick to that. And I really and
I want to just say, do you think I'll be
(04:13):
upset if I get a prediction that the Yankees are
gonna win wrong? Really? You really think I'm gonna care
if I got Oh the Yankees. I got that Yankees
prediction wrong, and instead of them moving on, they're going
home like the Mets. Oh oh my goodness, Oh yes,
oh my goodness. I feel so full, so full of shame.
I don't care if I get that prediction wrong. I
(04:34):
don't care.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I mean, we'd like to be right. But in the end,
oh yeah, sure. It's the old fantasy line. And I've
been doing fantasy advice forever. Do I start this guy
or the other guy, and I'd give you my opinion
as to how you see the game going. And then
if it goes another way, guess what if I got
you to toggle to my side, I did it right,
(04:55):
it's the player's fault if he fails.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
You, it's not mine. Oh yeah, yeah, no, absolutely, ye,
my fault.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
I made a cogent, coherent, beautiful argument that got you
to toggle to my side. Now, if the guy ends
up getting giving you a big goose egg, hey, he
failed to perform in this particular case or in where
we pick games, same idea, Like, you've got a script
in mind of based on what you've seen and how
it's gonna go. In this case, you were being a
(05:22):
fatalist thinking the Yankees were suddenly going to go on
a tremendous tear and that from pillar to post they'd
be able to light up the scoreboard, and that that
starting pitching was gonna come through. Instead, it's been anything,
but it's been Hey, how early do we need to
go to the bullpen in each of these games? Because
the starters have been absolutely terrible.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
It's not been a great for starting pitchers, not great,
Bob right and clearly showing. Look, and this is a
big thing to get into. There's so many absolutes that
that people want to say for playoffs, for baseball, that
analysts want to say at ex players and I and
it's it's starting pitching is so important. And then you
get starting pitching is not important, bullpen is more important. Still, Well,
(06:10):
that's because he was a starting pitcher. Yeah, there's a
long line.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
What's longer the people that want to kick his ass
or the people that were on the never again board.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Wow, I thought that was going a different direction. And
I'm glad of getting Hersheizer, Baker Mayfield, Jamal Adams, Melvin Gordon,
There's a lot of people on that. Curtis, no, no, no,
I just shook Curtis Mark back. That was No, that
was a great still steal his jaunt, little cat. That
(06:41):
was that was a great moment for both of us.
That was hell. It was No, absolutely, it was awkward,
but it was such a great moment. Man.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I mean, that's still no more awkward than someone stealing
your beer.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Yeah, that was awkward. Charles Woodson handshake. Oh, Watson already
also on the list. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Woodson on the
list to Yeah. No, there too. But like, look you
have something and oh no, absolutely you have to have
starting pitching. No, you don't have to have starting pitching.
You have to have a bullpen. No, you don't have
to have a bullpen. You have to have starting pitching.
And the real takeaway when you think about the playoffs,
(07:14):
it's it's it's okay, well, each each team is unique
to themselves. No, pitching in the playoffs is a crap shoot.
It has always been a crap shoot. It has always
been a crap shoot. When you get in the last
few years, when you have the extra rounds in the playoffs,
when you can't manage your team to say, okay, after
this series is over, we have now five days until
the next round. We can reset our rotation, so our
(07:35):
top three starters are going. That's not baseball anymore. Starting
all pitching, starting pitching bullpen in the playoffs is an
absolute crap shoot. It's why, Hey, you get a hot hand,
you ride. It doesn't matter why last night, Dave Roberts,
you gotta go. You gotta go to Roki Sosaki. I
know you like your guy, but that's the one guy.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
You gotta go to Rokeye Socci. But look at what
complete crap shoot. As he tried to explain it away
after the game, he said, well, I didn't know if
he'd be ready for the second time in three days,
and then you still brought him in. Oh okay, I'm
glad you brought that up, because I want to bring
this up, Dave Roberts. All right, he's the manager. I
don't know if he's gonna be ready. No, really, you're
(08:13):
the manager of the team. How do you know? I
don't know if he was gonna be ready enough? How
do you not know anything about one of your players
like that? How do you not know?
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Saying you didn't bring him in to start the ninth
because you didn't think he'd be ready, But then all
of a sudden when it was the break glass in
case of emergency, Hey, let's hurry you out to the
mountain to like a fireman, right the old Rolades Fireman
of the Year award to close things out.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
You couldn't get him out there fest enough. I mean,
I really, Dave Roberts tried his best to get fired
last night. Like you know, I really, I'm done with
the pressure. It's really difficult to think I should win
with Otani all the time. I'm done. I'm trying to
get fired by doing this. But I mean, look, but
that's the thing about pitch. It's such a crapshoot that
when you find something that works, you stick with it
(08:57):
and you don't go around, Oh I'm gonna do this.
I'm gonna do this. It's such an absolute crapshoot. Shane
Bieber was losing it on the mound. We were watching
him lose it on the mound. And still, how is
Toronto not going to someone You're gonna let the Yankees
back in this game. You're gonna let him back in
this game. Shane Bieber continues to throw batting practice. Okay, well,
time to get him out of the game. Right. You
can't sit you can't sit back and say, well, let's
(09:20):
let him work his way out of it. No, you're
going for the killer. You're going for the kill shot
here against the Yankees, and what happened. They left Shane
Bieber in too long. They cut the lead to three.
Aaron Judge, it's a home run. Now it's six six.
He makes a diving play and right field for a ball.
Aaron Judges, trying to make up for dropping the ball
in the World Series last year. But I mean, but
that when when you find pitching that works, you have
to stick with it whether it is and you have
(09:41):
to be flexible. It's it's gotta be hey, okay, we're
getting stuff out of our starting pitching. So that's we're
gonna do here. And if that's not working, we got
to change on a diamond pivot to this. You can't
have one strategy all the way through the playoffs. And
I'm watching this from the from the Blue Jays and
from the Dodgers, and I go, do you not understand
that this is a much different situation. I mean, I
I don't get I don't get so many moves that
(10:02):
managers make where it's like Okay, if this isn't working,
you have to go to something else. You have to
go to something. It's six to one and Shane Bieber's
in trouble. Stop the momentum. You get first and second.
After Judge rips a base it, Bellon drips a base
it off a high fastball. You know what, guess what
time to go to the bullpen. Stop thementum, bring somebody
else in, hold on to this lead. It doesn't matter
if you use your relievers tonight, because hey, you're gonna
(10:23):
have some time off. You win this game. But instead
it was too long to get to the bullpen, and
they still allowed the runs. And now here comes the
bulb and now it's a brand new game and we're
still I mean, I think we went backwards. We're now
in the third and oh yeah, so that's how long
this game is.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
We've gone from the fourth Sacraments, sprint trying to save
los Lane's life, just trying to do that.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I mean that that's that's what drives me mad about
the playoffs, is that the manager's refusal to adapt to
what is going on, because it's not just simply one
pitching strategy, it's what is working. Follow it. If it's
not working, you have to go fast. You gotta that
emergency glass is breken. You gotta break that much faster
than you do during the regular season. And they still
want to I want to stick with my guys. You
(11:04):
know what, the guys understand. It's a playoffs. I'm not
getting anybody out. They understand that regular season, I own,
I get it. Regular say hey, Skip, I know I've
been you know, like mag Nanty when he's talking to
a Brad Pitton moneyball, Hey, thanks for sticking with me.
And I've been working on some things in the bulb,
of course, And Brett Pitt says, Mike, I need you
to stop getting dressed by so bad example. But like
it's one thing in the regular season to say, hey,
(11:25):
I'm sticking with a guy, and I'm gonna stick with
us with a starter here because he's been so good,
he's worked in and out of things you don't have.
You don't have that leverage and you don't have that
that rope anymore. To say, yeah, it's okay to do
this because this is one of one sixty two and
lots of things can happen. This is one of five.
What a five and you let the you want to
let the Yankees back in the series, You want to
let the Phillies back in the series. I don't get
(11:46):
it well.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
And if you're a guy who has been fantastic for
you all year or in years past, not that I
want to do the uh open the car door and
slam Dave Roberts as I drive by. But that's just
because the guy had success for you a year ago.
They're not pitching well now right the I want to
give Blake trying to No, no.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
No, no, that guy from last year is not here right now.
He's not coming back. That is that is not what
we were talking about. And even with the Yankees earlier.
Ro Don was terrible, Yes he was Doge. Finally, one
of your old players in the playoffs shows why he
was a white sock very five. Finally, all the other
guys were, dude, come on, man, you gotta you gotta
(12:27):
wear this man. All your guys that were on your
team that was terrible you know someplace else, and now
they're great. I thought the reverse of that. How about
all the great players have incredible careers that go to
the White Sox and then suck.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Well, all those Hall of Famers, Carltons and Tom Seed
and Ken Griff.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Had like one hit as a White Sock. Hey, hey,
he had more than that. What did he play thirteen
games as a White Sox than Michael Jordan? Not by many,
not by many for aus trouble with the curve, for
that was written all about Michael Jordan. No.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
But but like Radon was awful and they should have
stopped the bleeding and they didn't. They let it get
out to a six to one lead before crews came
in and finished that inning. But it was like it
was clear he had no movement on his pitches and
they were locked in on him, and yet they left
him out there and kept the Congo line a little
bit of a defensive alignment. I was talking with you
a little before the show. Uh, you know, the third
(13:24):
basement takes two steps.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
To the right. They hit it right where he was.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
He was positioned perfectly, extends the inning, run scores, all
of that, and before you know it at six to
one and you're battling back to which they've done.
Speaker 1 (13:36):

the bottom of the fifth. Inning just long time to
(16:24):
go with. This you know, what, though good For Aaron
boone for Playing Jazz. Chisholm you, KNOW i want to

Give Aaron boone some? Credit maybe we don't get this
jazz chism if he doesn't bench him in the first
game against The Red, sox he went. Home what video
game did he?
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Played played some baseball game where he mercy ruled. Somebody
soon it was all. EXCITED i knew WHAT i was.
Doing look at This jazz. Chis we're gonna look at
this thirty thirty guy THAT i sat down And i'm
still disappointed at. Him earlier in the in the game,
though remember before that double, uh but we had the catcher's.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
INTERFERENCE i was waiting for him to come.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Screaming and streaming out of the. Dugout, instead he uttered
a bunch of curse. Words if you ever.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Want a a great gift of somebody mouthing some of
the filthiest stuff, ever it Was Aaron boone in that.
Moment it was or we Or Jerry.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Jones giving the middle finger TO i made that a
sticker THAT i sent to, you so use, it use
it as you.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Will, now, look now here's this. Is this is an
incredibly nutty. Thing Right we'll get to the quarterback situation a.
Second Jerry jones is fine two hundred and fifty grand
by THE nfl today for flipping off. Fans NOW i
want to say, fans because initially we thought he's flipping Off.
Jets fans were flipping off fans during The cowboys win
over The jets On. Sunday now this falls in.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Line he kind of predicted, yesterday, right we were talking
about this, that you, know going back To Bud adams
and what he was fined all those years, ago that
it would be a couple hundred grand.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
No it is a little different Because Bud adams was
standing up going, yes, yes that was a little bit
more Than Ry jones kind of doing the sly hey blank.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
You but but we know Who Jerry jones is with
great power and, recognition and we told you last exactly
what the fine that's your?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Finger yeah it. Was so he gets fined two hundred
and fifty. Grand well wait a, minute what's going to happen?
Now Jerry jones is appealing the, fine good, Friend he's
appealing the fine, because as he said today and ONE
o five, three the fan In, Dallas, oh this was
a this is a big. MISUNDERSTANDING i DIDN'T i didn't
mean to do WHAT i, did and what you saw
(18:33):
wasn't WHAT i meant it to.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
Be you, know that was. Unfortunate that was an exchange
with our fans out in front of. Us there was
a swarm of cowboy fans out in. Front that was
in burton on my part BECAUSE i was that was
right after we'd made our last touchdowns and we were
all excited About there wasn't any antagonistic issue or anything like.
(18:58):
THAT i just put up the the wrong show on the,
Hand but that was, inadvertently And i'm not kidding it.
Was if you want to call it, accidentally you can
call it. Accidental but he got straight around pretty. Quick
i've had a chance to look at. It he got
straightened around pretty. Quick but the intention was thumbs up
and then basically pulling at our fans because everybody was
(19:21):
jumping up and.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Down i'm, excited, Okay so BASICALLY i can't control my.
Fingers THOUGHT i was putting the thumb out turned out
to be the middle. Finger didn't know that. Happened you
should see me try to write something with a, pencil
try to pick it. Up you should see sometimes the
pinky finger. Works sometimes it, doesn't AND i try. To
then you see IF i try to blow my nose
sometimes When i'm sticking a finger in my eye and doesn't, go,
(19:42):
WHY i can't really control. It SO i didn't thought
it was putting the thumb. Out then what it could
be the index? Finger point hey? You because oh, yeah,
NO i wasn't doing this To jets. Fans this IS i.
WAS i was sticking up the middle finger To cowboys
fans because we had just scored a touchdown AND i
was feeling, Good SO i said hey, blank you. Man
but but it was completely. INADVERTENT i didn't mean to
(20:03):
actually stick the middle finger out when it. Did, uh
and it, happened and it Really that's Why i'm gonna
appeel this because it could have been any, finger and it.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Was it was.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Inadvertent So i'm hoping That Roger goodell can understand the
money That i've helped make THE nfl over the course
of the past thirty five years and see his way
to not having me find two hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Dollars see this is where he also would claim to
be part, robot that someone else is controlling his fingers
and they hit the wrong, button so it got the wrong.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Rule it wasn't. Me it was JUST i was a
hologram And steven was controlling me because you, KNOW i
DON'T i don't travel as much as he used, to
so he was controlling me and he actually pressed the. Button,
hey what finger would you like to stick out to your?
Fans usually it's the middle finger because they all hate
what we. Do But steven got a little confused and
osed to, admit but then corrected it right, away and you,
(20:54):
saw like, terminator it just kind of the finger went
back into the other finger came out and he, said,
blank cube, black. Blank it's that's kind of how it
went right.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
There do you THINK i could IF i got a
nice high res image of, THAT i can get it
signed because it'll go right really well with the famous
Dit go one THAT i have where he's flipping off
The miami. Fans, yeah And i'm splending in that sweater
vest with a bit of an.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Overcoat. MAN i left after. THAT i walked, out and
THEN i Said i'll be. BACK i came back with
a Big cowboys car AND i ran Over Paul. Winfield,
uh you, KNOW i felt bad about. It it was great
After Paul winfield then a lot of great. MOVIES i
loved him in the seventies and the. Eighties BUT i
had to come back and do. IT i can't Cancer
i'll be back and not come. Back SO i came
back and did, that and Then steven started controlling me
(21:39):
again and realized, That, okay got to make sure the
fingers all. WORK i want to make SURE i could
play the piano. Again so that's what it. Was So
i'm not gonna pay this.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Fine the Great Paul winfield gave us a voiceover For City,
confidential one of the great shows of all. Time he
was In king nineteen seventy, eight go back to Trouble.
MAN a great, Actor, paul with so many great movies
throughout the. Years but the fact that we got him in,
here the unfortunate. Terminator he was waiting for. Me he
(22:10):
thought it Was Woody, johnson but instead it Was Paul.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Winfield and you know we're wearing that j, cap that
little green hat that's too small for his. Head That's
Woody johnson ran him over to so uh that that's
that's how it. Works but he wants us to believe
THAT i WAS i was flipping Off cowboys, fans which
is more disturbing.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Now if you see the photos cowboys. Underneath, no, no, No

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Moment whoever said what what you were referring, to just

Speaker 1 (26:49):
HOURS i thought it was A smith kid from the.

Barry switzer are all all in the same room together
Playing pong on the video games when it first came
out in nineteen sixty, seven because you, KNOW i had
that because uh you, know you, know you know my
family owned a. ZOO i don't know IF i told you,
that and so we had a lot of. Money And
i'm Making Mike harmon cry right now with. This so
(27:32):
my job is done here with all, THIS i was
undefeated against the. Monkeys they tried to team up to fool.
Me exit out out Of, Fresco Exit, SWOLLEN i, mean
double the fight just for, stupidity just because it's. Stupid
you should double that fue uh time of to find
out what's trending in the wide world of. Sports but
(27:52):
guy who's been called The Aaron judge Of Fox Sports.
Radio some nights he drops a fly ball in The World.
Series other it's a home run off the foul. Pole
It's Steve, desaga.
Speaker 6 (28:02):
AND i am seven foot eight inches to. Home this
is when he's gotten taller since the regular season. Ended
i'd be taller after that, shot believe. Onion it was
the most unlikely of comebacks and the most unlikely of.
Homers details in a, Moment but The yankees are actually
leading at home ON fs one going to the bottom
of the six eight to six Over. Toronto The Blue
(28:25):
jays had a six to one lead after they made
the Starter Carlos rodin leave after two and a third.
Innings you've got just a few innings to go to
complete a three game sweep and win In New york
And Vladimir Gerrera junior has already homered for a third
straight game in the, series and Then Aaron judge ties
the contest six to six in the fourth with a
(28:45):
three run homer off the left field foul, pole And
Yankee stadium went. Crazy it was a near one hundred
mile an hour inside, fastball the fastest pitch judge has
hit for a home run in his major league. Career
it was clocked at ninety nine point seven miles per
hour this reliever's. Pitch the thing, is it wasn't a.
(29:07):
Strike measuring from the middle of the. Plate it was
almost two feet. Inside from, that.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
There's no way he should have been able to hit
that pitch for a home. Run it was an excuse,
me out of the way, swing AND i thought it
was going to fall in over the third baseman's head
and it's off the top of the foul, pole.
Speaker 6 (29:22):
And he got around on it and kept it. Fair
it was. Astounding since they've had the pitch tracking dating
back to two thousand and eight playoffs or regular, season
nobody has homered off a pitch that, fast that far.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Inside that's, Baseball. Susan it is.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
Astounding what happened, here and now The yankees have gone
in front Because. Jazzism the next, inning hit one out
over four hundred Feet Austin wells AND rbi. Single it's
eight to Six New york Over. Toronto as they start
to go in the bottom of the sixth inning ON fs.
One the thing that's the kicker for me with this
(29:58):
judge homer inside. Pitch looked it. Up this WHOLE mlb,
season there have been over three hundred pitches thrown that
were on zero and two counts like this that were
one hundred miles an hour and that were not. Strikes
and this is the first one all season that was
a home run in that.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Situation you send that To Sarah, lang, SAY i got.
You it's just.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
Crazy he's been ridiculously hot in this, series unlike some other,
postseasons AND i feel like he has single handedly brought them.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Back to the tie in this, game and now they
lead eight to.
Speaker 6 (30:32):
Six in the sixth, earlier a game that was flipped
over TO fs two because In detroit there was about
a three hour rain delay at the, Start seattle Wonted
detroit eight to four to go up two games to
one in their best of. Five this was an eight
to one lead top of the ninth after a two
run homer By Cal. Rawley mariners hit three home runs
in this. One the Two National League division series each resumed. Tomorrow,
(30:54):
milwaukee up two games to, none will be at The
cubs and then The dodgers up two games to none
host The. Philly the New Tampa Bay rays owners say
their ballpark will be repaired in time for next. Season

Inning things now getting away from The Blue jays in this.
Game SOMETHING i didn't think i'd say six hours ago
when the game. BEGAN a six to one lead has
now turned into a nine to Six yankee. Lead Ben
rich with a sacrifice, fly Scoring Aaron. Judge so going
(33:22):
to the seventh, inning now it's The Blue jays chasing
three runs against The, yankees trying to stay alive in this.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Series let's go back to the start of that, inning shall?
We grisham line flat out to center and Then judge
was intentionally.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
Walked, yeah came around to. Score there's probably a good
probably good intentional walk, though because you, know, hey we
got one run that could have got.
Speaker 3 (33:44):
Four bellinger and doubles on a play that right fielder
turns his glove the wrong. Way just an absolute butchery.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
All The Blue jays. Defensively they have killed seed so
many of these, plays and the Blue jays tonight absolutely a,
dive uncertain of how to hold his glove and its
sales underneath.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
It in the, end you get the sacrifice fly and insurance.
Run but just we watched it time and time again
throughout these. Playoffs and throughout the regular season as we
sit here in The Fox Sports radio, studios or we're
just shaking our head.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Going, fundamentals man. Fundamentals so we'll have more baseball coming
up in a few. Minutes but my bold prediction that
The browns will start five quarterbacks this season is Going i'm,
like this is Like i'm Like Doctor evil the beginning of.
Movies my evil plan is going according to plan because
The browns today Traded Joe flacco the rare intra divisional.
(34:42):
Trade they Traded flacco to The. Bengals they're gonna exchange
late round picks as. Well But Joe flacco who didn't
want to sit Behind Dylan, gabriel And Dylan gabriel who
played pretty well last. Week we'll have more on him
coming up in a, bit but he played pretty well last,
week so The browns were, Okay Joe flacco has done our.
Thing if we do anything from here on, out we're
not gonna go back to. Him So Dylan gabriel is
(35:04):
the starter. Now Shador sanders moves, Up Bailey zappi will
likely move up off the practice, squad and, uh now
that they can't go back To Joe, flacco five, Quarterbacks Mike.
Harmon we're getting closer. Now they can't go back to
a guy that already started because he's not on the team.
Anymore five guys is, guys five guys BECAUSE i said five,
guys gotten five Guys burgers and hot, dogs.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
Five guys, channeling, uh you know his old.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Movies five. Guys FIVE i feel about bulling a. Job
what about five other. Guys they're gonna start great five
quarterbacks this year because it's a matter of. Time you
have to shoot your Door sanders at some. Point i'm
Sure Bailey zappi will get one or two starts here and,
there and then someone not even on the team may
get will get that week seventeen start when everybody else
is injured or ineffective or they moved, on and that you,
(35:55):
said five, guys it's My i'm at the beginning Of.
October i've already seen two so AM i am more
than happy with the pace of how the these negotiations
are going Be yet one, Month i've seen two, quarterbacks
perfect exactly going according to.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Plan NOW i, understand And i'm gonna bleed into a little.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Bit of The bengals.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
HERE i understand the all, Right Joe flacco's, done so
what do we do with him on the. Roster he's
still viable to a, point but we've seen this.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Act for a couple of. Years so if you're The,
bengals what the hell are you?
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Doing this is the guy that you go and. GET
i understand you don't want to see any more Of.
Browning it's been a disaster. Now this week it was
great For Jamar chase fantasy. Owners and if you were
desperate based on Bi week's, injuries et, cetera and you
had to Start, browning you did just. Fine he finished
as a top ten quarterback for you for fantasy.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
Purposes but it's it's disjointed and. Awful so you go
to make a. Move that's the guy you go and
get to be your savior for this. Season how many
games is he gonna survive behind that offensive? One, well
you had to do something. Right you had to do
BECAUSE i know the options out there aren't, great, right
(37:07):
but they, Decided, okay who's a guy that can come
in that doesn't have to play That if you, know
If browning has a big week Before flacco's ready to,
go he can still sit and, wait they're trying to
get him. Up they want to get him. UP i
know they want to get him. Up but if something, Happens,
hey he's someone that you can, start you can then pull,
out you can you can sit. Back it's not something, that,
(37:27):
hey you got this, guy wh's got to start the
rest of the. Way, no it's so you're you're kind
of Serving you're kind of serving both masters there With,
hey we want to be able to get a guy
that we can, play but if something else happened and
he doesn't, play it's gonna go. Okay But i'll tell you,
This i'll give you a hot Take joe Flat when
when we Watched Joe flacco get off the couch in
twenty twenty three and hit The browns and go four
(37:49):
and one and they made the. Playoffs it was they
started seven GUYS i think a quarterback that year and
they made the. Playoffs. Right it was one of the
great coaching jobs of all time in THE nfl By Kevin,
stefanski And flacco was really. Good it was, Like, wow
look at, him he's. Dynamic that's the kind Of flaco
you are gonna get on This bengals. Team. Right IF
i was, excited And i'm never excited About Russell, wilson,
right not excited at. All BUT i told you if
(38:11):
if they Got Russell wilson the moonball Of Jamar, chase watch.
Out Joe flacco throws a better deep. Ball he is more.
Dynamic this is a guy who is going to unearth
those weapons and it's gonna Be Jamar chase. Downfield higgins
is gonna catch a bunch of. Passes it's gonna Electrify
Chase brown in the running. Game he is going to
have an impact on The bengals like he had on
(38:34):
The browns for that five weeks a couple of years,
ago because he fits with what this offense. Needs push
the ball, downfield be, dynamic decisive with throws nowhere to
go with the. Football it's not gonna be the same,
old same Old trust, Me Joe flacko's got an immediate
and big. Impact, yeah but the difference was that That
brown's defense was, good that roster was solid from top to,
(38:56):
bottom and it needed a little bit of. Juice and
even if you go, back The flacco numbers there weren't,
Great like he almost gave away as many balls that
found their way to pay dirt as that season war,
on but it did open things up to where they
were at least a functional. Offense and here you do
have all of those and everybody is, open you, know
(39:16):
from your lips To god's, ears the, Football god's ears
regarded regarding Particularly Chase brown because he's been a non
factor through five weeks of the season thus, far AND
T higgins has been invisible as. Well as they celebrate
the twenty fifth anniversary of The Sorcerer's, stone you might
as well throw a cloak of invisibility in FOR T
(39:39):
higgins to this point because we ain't seen. Them so,
yeah maybe you get a little bit of juice, there
but you're gonna have To can you win shootouts weekend
week out With Joe? Flacco because that's what you're gonna
need to, do, Right and, look what do we say
if they make a move for a. Quarterback the whole
thing is to stay, alive stay five hundred ish until
Hopefully burrow can come. Back, no, look are you sunk
(40:00):
If berto's got? Back of, course, YEAH i don't think
he's coming, Back but you're keeping that carrot out there
that hey just get going When joe comes. Back, right
and then get this strategy. Going you're going against one
of the show, tennants and that keep that keeps people.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
Going but they didn't call the. GIANTS i would have
rather Seen Jameis winston come floating through that door.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
Myself, yeah Poor jamis poor or.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
Convinced Arthur blank that he finally has to just figure
out the finances On Kirk cousins and release him from purgatory.
Speaker 1 (40:33):
EXIT, o out Of fresco, exit swallowing down, pay immediate
and positive and. Dynamic that'll be the immediate. Results Joe
blacco is. Elite look at. You coming up, next we
got two big breakdowns on what's going on in baseball right,
Now fox
