second seven foot Uh, he is big, three hundred and
ninety pounds out of Ake in South Carolina.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
There you go, your neck of the woods. Yeah. We
talked about the big PAC to move oh so great
with Johnny Cans in the first hour of the show,
so you could podcast all that information. But the PAC
twelve is not just sitting on their treasure chest. They're
making their money work for them. And if the ACC collapses,
(07:16):
you bit your ass. Callum Stanford will come back to
the West Coast and uh, they will breathe again.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Why would they? You know, they'll they'll just do it anyway,
like yeah, hey, AC, you guys don't want us.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Depends on the check, Yeah, it will depend on the check. Uh.
UCLA hosts Indiana.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
This as much as we love this recently crafted Florida
State Stanford rivalry.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Is when Florida State and when Florida State had Clemson
leave the ACC, there won't be much left for Stanford Cal.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
You know we love this Wake Cal showdown.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
And well, you know this academic You know Stanford thinks
they're too good for Fresno State. Remember that it might
be happy over there with Duke us E has a buye.
They're gonna go to Michigan. UCLA hosts Indiana at the
Rose Bowl kickoff at four point thirty. It's not just
(08:13):
blah blah. Okay, it's more than just an old stadium coach.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
And that's on AM eleven fifty. Mighty Matt and his
pick machine will emerge in the very next segment.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I don't know if it's so much a machine as
it is an anchor that is attached to your feet
that's about to be thrown off a pier. And that
may be a more app description of my This is
my pick anchor. Go ahead and secure it to your
ankle right here at the edge of this pier, and
let's see how it goes.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Bales versus Fins on five seventy. Kickoff is at five
point fifteen, and the Chargers head to Charlotte to take
on Bryce Young and the Panthers on Sunday ten o'clock
kickoff on Alt ninety eight seven. Chargers are a six
and a half half point road favorite because Bryce Young
is a bust. Sadly, Joey Bosa, who's got a back injury,
(09:08):
wasn't on the field for practice today. His quote was
and a looie. Gilmann was also not in the field
for the second consecutive day.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
His quote, Oh it's good quotes.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
PMS microphones are out there.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Uh, the rams are all and one. Matt might pick
that one too.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
I like that game.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
They're on the road again this Sunday, and on his
own taking on the Cardinalez. Remember Cliff Kingsbury in that
cool draft house that he was in a sweet by himself.
Remember he was like all by himself. I don't need nobody.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, no general manager, no assistant coaches. He wasn't even
texted with Leach, just him sitting on a coach on
a couch, the coach watching the draft, coach on a couch.
I'm gonna rent this.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Ye, you've heard of elf on a show.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Yes, Coach on a ca ouch.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
The attorney represented the planeff in a civil lawsuit accusing
the Cleveland Brown quarterback to Shan Watson of sexual assultant battery.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Again, you know that's not a bad idef P. Coach
on a couch. Yeah, I mean just think of all
the sec types. If we sold coach on a couch
for Christmas, and well.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
It sounds like where else is he gonna go? They go, right, Well,
you know what, though, you could have him on a
little couch and then you can move that.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
On, right, you can move the whole couch around with
the with the guy. I think people will be into that.
People might like that, right, I think they really get
into that. Man, we get some people that work for
the newspapers on our payroll.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Don't we. I think they'd be all right talking about
a dirty cop, talking about a good cop.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Saw a ton of the Brian Kelliott model for sure.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Well, a lot of the puzzo grabbing with Sean Watson.
The attorney for the the plane Iff lady says that
there was some grabbing, grabbing hands and the puzzo slippage
or whatever.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Listen to the bathroom. I came out and he was naked.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Speak to the NFL within two weeks. She's gonna tell
them what happened. And they got two additional witnesses for
the NFL to speak with. I saw him closing a
pile on the ground. This Shaw Watson has denied any
wrong doing. Yes, I mean the massage is, Butdocks massage
it hard. And then he turned over. They told me
to sing into the mic and I ran out the room.
(11:21):
Oh bab my sir, I don't want to be oh bamaus. Well,
Matt's got his picks and he's not alone. A lot
of people love to pick with Matt Smith.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Oh they sure do.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
And he'll be on in the next segment with the
Three Things Thursday, of course, and then dead and a
live guy Birthday of the Day. As the Petrolsen Money
Show continues right here on m FI seventy LA Sports,
You're home with the Dodgers and NFL football tonight. Okay, everybody,
(11:57):
thanks for listening tonight Thursday at Football Buffalo in Miami.
Kickoff at five point fifteen. Hey, listen to the Petro
Some Money Show on the iHeartRadio app. We're flexed around
a lot, especially in the next week with the Dodgers
headed out to the East Coast, and a lot of
shows will start early, so please remember to listen on
(12:18):
the iHeartRadio app and podcast the show if you missed it,
or stream it live when it's on on the iHeartRadio
app or any other platform where you get your podcast.
It is now time for Three Things Thursday. Throw it
on Three thingsters.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Well, dug myself quite a hole. I will do my
best to imitate your Week two bounce back and hope
that somehow I can return to relevancy. The Bills versus
the Dolphins, it open it Miami minus one. I wish
I could have got in on that, but I'll still
take it at minus two and a half. The hook
is pretty scary. I'm well aware that Buffalo has won
(13:06):
eleven of their last twelve against Miami, including four in
a row. Miami has had absolutely zero answer for Josh Allen,
but for the most part, so as the rest of
the league since he arrived in West and while they
were able to shake off a slow start and knock
off the Cardinals, the Bills, that is, it was awfully
easy for Arizona to put points on the board early.
And remember this is a Bills team that acknowledged, yeah,
we're probably hitting the reset button on defense, had way
(13:28):
too many high prized vets and we had to shed
some of that, particularly in the secondary. I think about
all those new young players in the secondary with Miami
their passing game, they struggled to start the season. They
fell into that hole against the Jags. Some Jacksonville miscues
allowed them, including a near touchdown that was punched out
(13:49):
from Travis Ntien's hands just before he crossed the goal line.
It like the half yard line that would have put
that thing to bed. They would have lost that game
at home. But I'm going to say, I'm gonna go
ahead and say maybe it had a little something. I'm
gonna blame the cop incident before the game, maybe a
little off kilter, the offense a little out of sink.
Everybody focused on old Drews Drew Rosenhaus who was doing
(14:10):
the interview, about what Tyreek was doing and what went
on out there, and that it was a bit of
a distraction. So I wish I would have got in
earlier because it seemed to be reflective of history more
so than the current state of these two teams. Josh
Allen nearly zero help in the backfield, very little from
(14:31):
any of his receivers or tight ends. Pretty much had
to put that offense on his back and carry it
to victory. Gonna be a lot harder to do that
against the Miami side, considerably more talented. Do not call
me Gregory anymore. I now want to go by greg
Or Groot Russo, who had three sacks against the Jags,
so typically greg I just I feel like, let's do
(14:52):
that in like year one, or let's do that in
the draft. Let's not wait till like year three, Like, hey,
go by group now. Excuse me, Yeah, not Gregory. I'd
like to go by group now. All right, So I
suspect that Groot or greg but not Gregory Rousseau will
(15:13):
be able to make life miserable for Josh Allen, and
I'm gonna go ahead and lay the two and a
half tonight. All right, there's one now for the three
this weekend the Sunday Games. Give me the Chiefs minus
five and a half. It pains me. It pains me
to know I'll be rooting for Kansas City in this
contest to help with my one in five record. But
the Bengals issues, I believe are catching up with the
(15:35):
desperate times, Matt, you know the chips are down, chips
are down. You gotta turn to your enemy that does
a false start on every play.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
According to you.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
That's exactly right, Joan Taylor, and I am not approving
of that type of play, and I am not approving
of all the holds that they get away with. However,
I need to come back and I will lay the
five and a half in Kansas City. I think this
is probably what the Bengals need, like exactly what they need.
They play theswell, there's a reason why they were having
fun calling it Burrowhead instead of Arrowhead. But after watching
(16:07):
Kansas City and the opener, as much as I found
it distasteful and embarrassing for the league, they may be
better than last year's Super Bowl championship team, Matt. It
hurts given Andy Reid, a toy like Xavier Worthy until
he explodes into dust by week five or six will
bring big value. And you know how I feel about
(16:28):
Steve Spagnolo. You know where my position is on that one.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Yes, if he wasn't such a small, little, tiny Italian
pepper of a man that he'd be a head coach somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
It's exactly right. He absolutely would, and it's a damn shame.
He may want to think about getting those leg extenders
like the guy from Barstool got so he's not so short,
and then maybe.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
He's very painful, very hard to coordinate defense from his sideline.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
And maybe he'd be patrolling the sidelines as a head coach.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Not a very stilted, gingerly passion.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
What is going on? There's something weird about this guy,
I feel like, I mean, I've seen guys that are
split a high before, but this is awfully straight.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
So you're taking the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I am going to lay the five and a half again.
I'm going to keep going with the favorites, which is
usually a terrible idea, but i am. I'm going to
take the Colts minus two and a half the Packers.
And what a damn shame, because nobody likes Utah State
football like the Petros and Money show.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
We love the Aggies, Marlin Olsen forever.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
We've believed in them. Since since day one, seventeen years
of doing this show, we have celebrated the Aggies of
Utah State. We have celebrated Logan, Utah of the magic
that that town possesses. Tim Kates just recently became addicted
to the secret lives of Mormon wives and feels as
though the Logan wives and their secret lives are the
(17:52):
most compelling, ahead of the Provo and ahead of the
Salt Lakes. More of a mechanical bull vibe. Yeah, that's right,
that's what Kaid's likes. He likes his secret life wife
to have a mechanical bowl vibe. So as much as
as I feel, and it pains me to see the
injury to the MCL of Jordan Love and want to
(18:13):
see the Packers remain relevant when he comes back. They
have not even put him on ir yet, leading some
to believe that the injury may be as such that
he could return in less than four weeks, but before
he does, I do not believe in this. Malik Willis
didn't realize that in order for a hail Mary to work,
you got to throw it. At the end of that
game in Brazil, after Jordan Love had gotten them into
perfect position, Malik Willis a dirt bald his first pass attempt,
(18:36):
and then for good he had to throw the hail
Mary an order for a receiver to secure it in
the end zone. A perhaps snatch'll win from the Eagles,
they say. Matt Lafleur, who spends way too much time
on his hair and he is really proud of his hair,
is an offensive genius and can get anybody ready to
play quarterback. Forgive my skepticism, but while he is a
(19:01):
disciple of the Kyle Shanahan tree, I'm gonna go ahead
and need to see that to believe it. The Colts
are solid. They traded blows with the Texans for three
and a half quarters. Anthony Richardson nearly led them on
a comeback victory drive. Houston looks like a legitimate conference
championship game contender. They get a legitimate weapon, even though
he wasn't used much in Addie Mitchell to Texas by
(19:23):
the Way of Georgia and Alex Pearce, Michael Pittman all
viable weapons. And you saw Saquon Barkley eat that Packers
defense up and down in Brazil, so I suspect Jonathan
Taylor is going to have an opportunity to do the same.
Not to mention a big reason why Saquon had the
success he did and that week one Friday night contest
(19:44):
on a pitiful, pitiful turf covered field and sal Paulo
was the threat of Jalen Hurts running the ball and
all the RPO action. Anthony Richardson last week had fifty
six yards in a touchdown, So Shane Steike can run
a lot of those same things that Nick Siriannis. Of course,
both of them helped lead the Eagles to a Super
(20:04):
Bowl appearance running offense, so I suspect he will continue
to give the Packers some issues with the tandem of
Richardson and Taylor in the backfield. So I will go
ahead and lay the two and a half points, take
the Colts, and finally I have to take a dog,
and I'm taking the Rams. Even with all the injuries
that Tim Kates has done a bang up job of
(20:26):
keeping you up to speed on through the quick hits
portion of the program, they will be able to shuffle
that line around. The Cardinals struggled in Buffalo, even though
they had a three score two and a half two
score lead for a minute. The defense just ultimately melted
down at the whims of Josh Allen, and I suspect
Sean McVay will be able to lean on the kiraen
Williams running game. He said, he thinks he might be
(20:49):
able to get a couple of these guys back on
the offensive line, and it ought to be enough even
without pookuin Akua. Cooper Cup had a heck of a game,
nearly snatching that victory away from Detroit last week with
that second half surge. So I will go ahead and
take the point and take the Rams out in the
heat of Arizona, where reportedly it has been over one
hundred degrees ninety eight days in a row.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Des fruits in Losuegos. Everybody, that's three things Thursday with
four picks on five seventy LA Sports coming up next
to your dead and a live guy Birthday of the
Day leading in to NFL football action. All right, everybody,
(21:33):
thank you for listening to Petros and money, and don't
forget Thursday Night football coming up next and tomorrow a
very early show, a big Flex Alert, Dodgers on Deck
starts at three hour, show Wallert starts at one, and
(21:53):
then it'll be all weird next week. There is the
forecast for some rain in Atlanta. You know it's better standby,
I will I will be on supposed to, I will
absolutely be on standby. Okay, you're I thought you'd find
this interesting. Your dead guy birthday of the day today
(22:14):
is Henry Lewis Menckenn. Yes, H. L. Mencken would have
been one hundred and forty four years old today. I
guess if he lived today, he'd be like a TV
talking head American journalist, essayist and cultural critic Steve Doocy. Yeah,
like Deocy Deucy. He was a big libertarian, huge libertarian.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
But also so unlike any of these idiots on TV.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Not that I know of. Yeah, he was a big
scholar and a huge admirer of the German philosopher Fredrick Nietzsche.
But he also considered The Hawk Finn to be the
greatest book ever written by and it was changed his
life when he read Mark Twain's book. But he was
opposed to most things World War one, World War two,
(23:04):
organized religion, censorship, economics, chiropractors, and representative democracy. Chiropractors.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
You you're all class.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I believe in it. Born in Baltimore, lived forever in
Union Square in West Baltimore. Well, Max Monsey doesn't like him, No,
and his house in Baltimore is now a museum. A
real libertarian. His father owned a cigar factory, grew up
speaking German as well as English, took a writing class
(23:35):
because he didn't want to work for his dad at
the cigar factory, and took a job at the Morning
Herald in Baltimore. Ended up at the Baltimore Sun, where
he wrote editorials and columns for more than thirty five years,
and of course nationally syndicated everywhere. Everybody waited for what
(23:56):
he had to say about anything, you know, the New Deal,
so on and so forth. World War one, World War two.
Very close with and edited for a lot of important
literary people of the first half of the twentieth century,
recognizable names to people like us F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis.
(24:16):
And he published under various pseudonyms, even a book about
baby care. And he got famous over the Scopes monkey trial.
Oh that's a good one, yeah, on evolution in Tennessee.
He attended that trial and wrote about it and was
basically America's eyes and a champion. A young writer by
the name of i'n ran. Look at that.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
He your dad's favorite.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
If you've seen struck about as many people, about as
many people as saw the pretty horses. Not a literary lightweight.
Unlike the poet hill To Doolittle. He did not scissor
his way around the globe, but he did after years
of writing again marriage married a Southern suffragist, and he
(25:04):
also wrote up against the South a whole bunch, which
a lot of people found ironic. But he loved his wife.
She was a longer and yeah, she died after six years,
and he was devastated. He died in nineteen fifty six
after a bad stroke in night at forty eight. He
had the stroke in nineteen fifty six. He died. But
(25:27):
hl men can now. He distrusted microphones, which would hurt
him if he was going to be like Rachel Maddow.
But he did not like microphones. But one of his
colleagues at the newspaper told him, look, there's these microphones
at the Library of Congress. We can just drive up
to DC from Baltimore or down and people may listen
(25:49):
to it one hundred years from now. And that got
him to do it. And it's about a ten fifteen
minute interview, but we'll play a little bit. Here's the
only real recording of H. L. Menkin.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Ever, Well, we're on the air, Henry, We're not on
the air.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Well, let's call it hot air. That's right. I'm a
little confused after that ride over from Baltimore. Did you
ever see such a hideous boulevard in your life?
Speaker 5 (26:15):
I suppose there boulevards just as terrible, but I've never
seen it in a No, it's it's it's a disgrace
to humanity without well, because it represents the meriton lust.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
For the hideous. There you go, man, the delight.
Speaker 5 (26:31):
And ugliness for its own sake, this very pulparately. It
leads to the capital of the United States.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
I remember you were using that phrase quite often when
you wrote for the for the Sun Papers, the American
Libido for the ugly, that was a favorite topic.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
Yeah, And that was this that such horrible exhibitions are
not due to mirror, ignorance and innocence. There is a
pustive delight in the ugly. You can if you go
down the street and Bohmer and those endless rows are
(27:07):
two story houses on a summer night, should look at them.
They're usually illuminated more or less. And you noticed you
go sometimes for two or three blocks without seeing a
single object that's not hideous, not a single thing, not
even a picture on the wall.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
You know we're gonna we're gonna record this to keep
it in perpetuity. What would you have to talk about
everything exactly? Hideous? Boulevard sucks, This guy sucks. You're ugly,
He's the greatest. You're a coward.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
I love it. We could listen to that for the
rest of the night, but we love it. Matt, you
got the alive guy.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, he's a tromboner. He's a Sand Franciscan and he
plays the shells Hitda Cates, actual.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Sells. How beautiful hold y'all listen to that.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Happy seventy six to Stephen Johnson Torre, one of five
Italian father Mexican mother. His grandfather, Ernest Ray founded the
forty nine Ers with his pal Tony Morribido, and he
was raised outside of San Francisco and Keis Art was
(28:23):
his place. He started trombone in fourth grade and he
was ten ticklesby right, Ronnie proficient. Listen to that show.
Instead of uditching it for a gee bar, drums or
a microphone, he's stuck with it. In high school, and
it was a different time, you know. Back then in
(28:43):
the sixties, he's in a band with his brother who
played the sacks, and he was a hell of a
football player. Went to cal State Sacramento, won.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
A football scholars co hornete.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
While being a tromboner. He was in their College of Music.
Was invited to play in famous trumpeter Hannibal Lacumbe's band
that led to his being invited into Roland Kirk's outfit.
Decided Sacto wasn't for him, so he transferred.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I got a can out of Sacto.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
You got the game this week, North Texas. Let's go
mean Green College of Music dn't best ever death metal
band out of dead. Carlos Santana had him play with
him in the seventies and then he became the touring
tromboner for Ray Charles.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
I did not know this.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I really didn't know any of this. Actually, he has
been the tromboner in the SNL band since nineteen eighty five,
I mean forty years. This dude's been in the Saturday
Night Live band as their trombonist, and you never really
noticed them. I don't know how often they call upon
a trombone.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah, you just you know, you don't never, you just
don your eyes don a track.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
To it, do uh. He teaches jazz trombone at the
Manhattan School of Music since eighty eight nineteen seventy though.
He gets into the conck shells to the conk, way
into it deep dive. He would make regular trips to
the Caribbean. He would search for shells. He figured out
(30:14):
how to craft mouthpieces carefully tuned to specific pitches and
as you hear here pee when he plays them. As
a soloist, he will frequently switch between shells, each limited
in its register, like the seal with the big thing
(30:35):
of horns and listen to all the most people. So
he did the solo, and the band comes in and.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
The people love it.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
There's like ten thousand people.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
At this show. I want to hear watch this guy
blow the conk.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
His largest shell is from the Great Barrier of Australia.
His name is Stephen Turrey. That shell has arranged between
D and E below middle.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
C oh well, let me write that down too.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
He has a group called Sanctified Shells, essentially a shell choir.
It's almost all brass players that double on seashell. Listen
to that thing, got an album, a tour, and as
you heard there, people go to see him play the
shells and they freak out. He's a hell of a player.
(31:29):
He does everything in the world of jazz, Latin jazz.
He is considered one of the finest players of Venezuelan
moroccas and perhaps the greatest cow bell player on earth.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Well, that's what we need some more of around here.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Right works at Juilliard. He won the down Beat. That's
you know, the jazz mag Happy seventy six. Steve Turrey.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Very interesting. Coming up next, football, which you also made
find interesting, especially if you're a conk player. Put your
lips in blow around the dolphins bodily nose or the
Buffalo's horn. Tonight Thursday night football kickoff at five point fifteen.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
There you go, your neck of the woods. Yeah. We

with Johnny Cans in the first hour of the show,
so you could podcast all that information. But the PAC
twelve is not just sitting on their treasure chest. They're
making their money work for them. And if the ACC collapses,
(07:16):
you bit your ass. Callum Stanford will come back to
the West Coast and uh, they will breathe again.

UCLA hosts Indiana.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
This as much as we love this recently crafted Florida
State Stanford rivalry.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Is when Florida State and when Florida State had Clemson
leave the ACC, there won't be much left for Stanford Cal.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
You know we love this Wake Cal showdown.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
And well, you know this academic You know Stanford thinks
they're too good for Fresno State. Remember that it might
be happy over there with Duke us E has a buye.
They're gonna go to Michigan. UCLA hosts Indiana at the
Rose Bowl kickoff at four point thirty. It's not just
(08:13):
blah blah. Okay, it's more than just an old stadium coach.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
And that's on AM eleven fifty. Mighty Matt and his
pick machine will emerge in the very next segment.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I don't know if it's so much a machine as
it is an anchor that is attached to your feet
that's about to be thrown off a pier. And that
may be a more app description of my This is
my pick anchor. Go ahead and secure it to your
ankle right here at the edge of this pier, and
let's see how it goes.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Bales versus Fins on five seventy. Kickoff is at five
point fifteen, and the Chargers head to Charlotte to take
on Bryce Young and the Panthers on Sunday ten o'clock
kickoff on Alt ninety eight seven. Chargers are a six
and a half half point road favorite because Bryce Young
is a bust. Sadly, Joey Bosa, who's got a back injury,
(09:08):
wasn't on the field for practice today. His quote was
and a looie. Gilmann was also not in the field
for the second consecutive day.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
His quote, Oh it's good quotes.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
PMS microphones are out there.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Uh, the rams are all and one. Matt might pick
that one too.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
I like that game.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
They're on the road again this Sunday, and on his
own taking on the Cardinalez. Remember Cliff Kingsbury in that
cool draft house that he was in a sweet by himself.
Remember he was like all by himself. I don't need nobody.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, no general manager, no assistant coaches. He wasn't even
texted with Leach, just him sitting on a coach on
a couch, the coach watching the draft, coach on a couch.
I'm gonna rent this.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Ye, you've heard of elf on a show.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Yes, Coach on a ca ouch.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
The attorney represented the planeff in a civil lawsuit accusing
the Cleveland Brown quarterback to Shan Watson of sexual assultant battery.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Again, you know that's not a bad idef P. Coach
on a couch. Yeah, I mean just think of all
the sec types. If we sold coach on a couch
for Christmas, and well.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
It sounds like where else is he gonna go? They go, right, Well,
you know what, though, you could have him on a
little couch and then you can move that.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
On, right, you can move the whole couch around with
the with the guy. I think people will be into that.
People might like that, right, I think they really get
into that. Man, we get some people that work for
the newspapers on our payroll.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Don't we. I think they'd be all right talking about
a dirty cop, talking about a good cop.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Saw a ton of the Brian Kelliott model for sure.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Well, a lot of the puzzo grabbing with Sean Watson.
The attorney for the the plane Iff lady says that
there was some grabbing, grabbing hands and the puzzo slippage
or whatever.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Listen to the bathroom. I came out and he was naked.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Speak to the NFL within two weeks. She's gonna tell
them what happened. And they got two additional witnesses for
the NFL to speak with. I saw him closing a
pile on the ground. This Shaw Watson has denied any
wrong doing. Yes, I mean the massage is, Butdocks massage
it hard. And then he turned over. They told me
to sing into the mic and I ran out the room.
(11:21):
Oh bab my sir, I don't want to be oh bamaus. Well,
Matt's got his picks and he's not alone. A lot
of people love to pick with Matt Smith.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Oh they sure do.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
And he'll be on in the next segment with the
Three Things Thursday, of course, and then dead and a
live guy Birthday of the Day. As the Petrolsen Money
Show continues right here on m FI seventy LA Sports,
You're home with the Dodgers and NFL football tonight. Okay, everybody,
(11:57):
thanks for listening tonight Thursday at Football Buffalo in Miami.
Kickoff at five point fifteen. Hey, listen to the Petro
Some Money Show on the iHeartRadio app. We're flexed around
a lot, especially in the next week with the Dodgers
headed out to the East Coast, and a lot of
shows will start early, so please remember to listen on
(12:18):
the iHeartRadio app and podcast the show if you missed it,
or stream it live when it's on on the iHeartRadio
app or any other platform where you get your podcast.
It is now time for Three Things Thursday. Throw it
on Three thingsters.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Well, dug myself quite a hole. I will do my
best to imitate your Week two bounce back and hope
that somehow I can return to relevancy. The Bills versus
the Dolphins, it open it Miami minus one. I wish
I could have got in on that, but I'll still
take it at minus two and a half. The hook
is pretty scary. I'm well aware that Buffalo has won
(13:06):
eleven of their last twelve against Miami, including four in
a row. Miami has had absolutely zero answer for Josh Allen,
but for the most part, so as the rest of
the league since he arrived in West and while they
were able to shake off a slow start and knock
off the Cardinals, the Bills, that is, it was awfully
easy for Arizona to put points on the board early.
And remember this is a Bills team that acknowledged, yeah,
we're probably hitting the reset button on defense, had way
(13:28):
too many high prized vets and we had to shed
some of that, particularly in the secondary. I think about
all those new young players in the secondary with Miami
their passing game, they struggled to start the season. They
fell into that hole against the Jags. Some Jacksonville miscues
allowed them, including a near touchdown that was punched out
(13:49):
from Travis Ntien's hands just before he crossed the goal line.
It like the half yard line that would have put
that thing to bed. They would have lost that game
at home. But I'm going to say, I'm gonna go
ahead and say maybe it had a little something. I'm
gonna blame the cop incident before the game, maybe a
little off kilter, the offense a little out of sink.
Everybody focused on old Drews Drew Rosenhaus who was doing
(14:10):
the interview, about what Tyreek was doing and what went
on out there, and that it was a bit of
a distraction. So I wish I would have got in
earlier because it seemed to be reflective of history more
so than the current state of these two teams. Josh
Allen nearly zero help in the backfield, very little from
(14:31):
any of his receivers or tight ends. Pretty much had
to put that offense on his back and carry it
to victory. Gonna be a lot harder to do that
against the Miami side, considerably more talented. Do not call
me Gregory anymore. I now want to go by greg
Or Groot Russo, who had three sacks against the Jags,
so typically greg I just I feel like, let's do
(14:52):
that in like year one, or let's do that in
the draft. Let's not wait till like year three, Like, hey,
go by group now. Excuse me, Yeah, not Gregory. I'd
like to go by group now. All right, So I
suspect that Groot or greg but not Gregory Rousseau will
(15:13):
be able to make life miserable for Josh Allen, and
I'm gonna go ahead and lay the two and a
half tonight. All right, there's one now for the three
this weekend the Sunday Games. Give me the Chiefs minus
five and a half. It pains me. It pains me
to know I'll be rooting for Kansas City in this
contest to help with my one in five record. But
the Bengals issues, I believe are catching up with the
(15:35):
desperate times, Matt, you know the chips are down, chips
are down. You gotta turn to your enemy that does
a false start on every play.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
According to you.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
That's exactly right, Joan Taylor, and I am not approving
of that type of play, and I am not approving
of all the holds that they get away with. However,
I need to come back and I will lay the
five and a half in Kansas City. I think this
is probably what the Bengals need, like exactly what they need.
They play theswell, there's a reason why they were having
fun calling it Burrowhead instead of Arrowhead. But after watching
(16:07):
Kansas City and the opener, as much as I found
it distasteful and embarrassing for the league, they may be
better than last year's Super Bowl championship team, Matt. It
hurts given Andy Reid, a toy like Xavier Worthy until
he explodes into dust by week five or six will
bring big value. And you know how I feel about
(16:28):
Steve Spagnolo. You know where my position is on that one.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Yes, if he wasn't such a small, little, tiny Italian
pepper of a man that he'd be a head coach somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
It's exactly right. He absolutely would, and it's a damn shame.
He may want to think about getting those leg extenders
like the guy from Barstool got so he's not so short,
and then maybe.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
He's very painful, very hard to coordinate defense from his sideline.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
And maybe he'd be patrolling the sidelines as a head coach.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Not a very stilted, gingerly passion.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
What is going on? There's something weird about this guy,
I feel like, I mean, I've seen guys that are
split a high before, but this is awfully straight.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
So you're taking the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I am going to lay the five and a half again.
I'm going to keep going with the favorites, which is
usually a terrible idea, but i am. I'm going to
take the Colts minus two and a half the Packers.
And what a damn shame, because nobody likes Utah State
football like the Petros and Money show.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
We love the Aggies, Marlin Olsen forever.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
We've believed in them. Since since day one, seventeen years
of doing this show, we have celebrated the Aggies of
Utah State. We have celebrated Logan, Utah of the magic
that that town possesses. Tim Kates just recently became addicted
to the secret lives of Mormon wives and feels as
though the Logan wives and their secret lives are the
(17:52):
most compelling, ahead of the Provo and ahead of the
Salt Lakes. More of a mechanical bull vibe. Yeah, that's right,
that's what Kaid's likes. He likes his secret life wife
to have a mechanical bowl vibe. So as much as
as I feel, and it pains me to see the
injury to the MCL of Jordan Love and want to
(18:13):
see the Packers remain relevant when he comes back. They
have not even put him on ir yet, leading some
to believe that the injury may be as such that
he could return in less than four weeks, but before
he does, I do not believe in this. Malik Willis
didn't realize that in order for a hail Mary to work,
you got to throw it. At the end of that
game in Brazil, after Jordan Love had gotten them into
perfect position, Malik Willis a dirt bald his first pass attempt,
(18:36):
and then for good he had to throw the hail
Mary an order for a receiver to secure it in
the end zone. A perhaps snatch'll win from the Eagles,
they say. Matt Lafleur, who spends way too much time
on his hair and he is really proud of his hair,
is an offensive genius and can get anybody ready to
play quarterback. Forgive my skepticism, but while he is a
(19:01):
disciple of the Kyle Shanahan tree, I'm gonna go ahead
and need to see that to believe it. The Colts
are solid. They traded blows with the Texans for three
and a half quarters. Anthony Richardson nearly led them on
a comeback victory drive. Houston looks like a legitimate conference
championship game contender. They get a legitimate weapon, even though
he wasn't used much in Addie Mitchell to Texas by
(19:23):
the Way of Georgia and Alex Pearce, Michael Pittman all
viable weapons. And you saw Saquon Barkley eat that Packers
defense up and down in Brazil, so I suspect Jonathan
Taylor is going to have an opportunity to do the same.
Not to mention a big reason why Saquon had the
success he did and that week one Friday night contest
(19:44):
on a pitiful, pitiful turf covered field and sal Paulo
was the threat of Jalen Hurts running the ball and
all the RPO action. Anthony Richardson last week had fifty
six yards in a touchdown, So Shane Steike can run
a lot of those same things that Nick Siriannis. Of course,
both of them helped lead the Eagles to a Super
(20:04):
Bowl appearance running offense, so I suspect he will continue
to give the Packers some issues with the tandem of
Richardson and Taylor in the backfield. So I will go
ahead and lay the two and a half points, take
the Colts, and finally I have to take a dog,
and I'm taking the Rams. Even with all the injuries
that Tim Kates has done a bang up job of
(20:26):
keeping you up to speed on through the quick hits
portion of the program, they will be able to shuffle
that line around. The Cardinals struggled in Buffalo, even though
they had a three score two and a half two
score lead for a minute. The defense just ultimately melted
down at the whims of Josh Allen, and I suspect
Sean McVay will be able to lean on the kiraen
Williams running game. He said, he thinks he might be
(20:49):
able to get a couple of these guys back on
the offensive line, and it ought to be enough even
without pookuin Akua. Cooper Cup had a heck of a game,
nearly snatching that victory away from Detroit last week with
that second half surge. So I will go ahead and
take the point and take the Rams out in the
heat of Arizona, where reportedly it has been over one
hundred degrees ninety eight days in a row.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Des fruits in Losuegos. Everybody, that's three things Thursday with
four picks on five seventy LA Sports coming up next
to your dead and a live guy Birthday of the
Day leading in to NFL football action. All right, everybody,
(21:33):
thank you for listening to Petros and money, and don't
forget Thursday Night football coming up next and tomorrow a
very early show, a big Flex Alert, Dodgers on Deck
starts at three hour, show Wallert starts at one, and
(21:53):
then it'll be all weird next week. There is the
forecast for some rain in Atlanta. You know it's better standby,
I will I will be on supposed to, I will
absolutely be on standby. Okay, you're I thought you'd find
this interesting. Your dead guy birthday of the day today
(22:14):
is Henry Lewis Menckenn. Yes, H. L. Mencken would have
been one hundred and forty four years old today. I
guess if he lived today, he'd be like a TV
talking head American journalist, essayist and cultural critic Steve Doocy. Yeah,
like Deocy Deucy. He was a big libertarian, huge libertarian.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
But also so unlike any of these idiots on TV.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Not that I know of. Yeah, he was a big
scholar and a huge admirer of the German philosopher Fredrick Nietzsche.
But he also considered The Hawk Finn to be the
greatest book ever written by and it was changed his
life when he read Mark Twain's book. But he was
opposed to most things World War one, World War two,
(23:04):
organized religion, censorship, economics, chiropractors, and representative democracy. Chiropractors.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
You you're all class.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I believe in it. Born in Baltimore, lived forever in
Union Square in West Baltimore. Well, Max Monsey doesn't like him, No,
and his house in Baltimore is now a museum. A
real libertarian. His father owned a cigar factory, grew up
speaking German as well as English, took a writing class
(23:35):
because he didn't want to work for his dad at
the cigar factory, and took a job at the Morning
Herald in Baltimore. Ended up at the Baltimore Sun, where
he wrote editorials and columns for more than thirty five years,
and of course nationally syndicated everywhere. Everybody waited for what
(23:56):
he had to say about anything, you know, the New Deal,
so on and so forth. World War one, World War two.
Very close with and edited for a lot of important
literary people of the first half of the twentieth century,
recognizable names to people like us F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis.
(24:16):
And he published under various pseudonyms, even a book about
baby care. And he got famous over the Scopes monkey trial.
Oh that's a good one, yeah, on evolution in Tennessee.
He attended that trial and wrote about it and was
basically America's eyes and a champion. A young writer by
the name of i'n ran. Look at that.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
He your dad's favorite.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
If you've seen struck about as many people, about as
many people as saw the pretty horses. Not a literary lightweight.
Unlike the poet hill To Doolittle. He did not scissor
his way around the globe, but he did after years
of writing again marriage married a Southern suffragist, and he
(25:04):
also wrote up against the South a whole bunch, which
a lot of people found ironic. But he loved his wife.
She was a longer and yeah, she died after six years,
and he was devastated. He died in nineteen fifty six
after a bad stroke in night at forty eight. He
had the stroke in nineteen fifty six. He died. But
(25:27):
hl men can now. He distrusted microphones, which would hurt
him if he was going to be like Rachel Maddow.
But he did not like microphones. But one of his
colleagues at the newspaper told him, look, there's these microphones
at the Library of Congress. We can just drive up
to DC from Baltimore or down and people may listen
(25:49):
to it one hundred years from now. And that got
him to do it. And it's about a ten fifteen
minute interview, but we'll play a little bit. Here's the
only real recording of H. L. Menkin.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Ever, Well, we're on the air, Henry, We're not on
the air.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Well, let's call it hot air. That's right. I'm a
little confused after that ride over from Baltimore. Did you
ever see such a hideous boulevard in your life?
Speaker 5 (26:15):
I suppose there boulevards just as terrible, but I've never
seen it in a No, it's it's it's a disgrace
to humanity without well, because it represents the meriton lust.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
For the hideous. There you go, man, the delight.
Speaker 5 (26:31):
And ugliness for its own sake, this very pulparately. It
leads to the capital of the United States.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
I remember you were using that phrase quite often when
you wrote for the for the Sun Papers, the American
Libido for the ugly, that was a favorite topic.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
Yeah, And that was this that such horrible exhibitions are
not due to mirror, ignorance and innocence. There is a
pustive delight in the ugly. You can if you go
down the street and Bohmer and those endless rows are
(27:07):
two story houses on a summer night, should look at them.
They're usually illuminated more or less. And you noticed you
go sometimes for two or three blocks without seeing a
single object that's not hideous, not a single thing, not
even a picture on the wall.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
You know we're gonna we're gonna record this to keep
it in perpetuity. What would you have to talk about
everything exactly? Hideous? Boulevard sucks, This guy sucks. You're ugly,
He's the greatest. You're a coward.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
I love it. We could listen to that for the
rest of the night, but we love it. Matt, you
got the alive guy.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, he's a tromboner. He's a Sand Franciscan and he
plays the shells Hitda Cates, actual.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Sells. How beautiful hold y'all listen to that.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Happy seventy six to Stephen Johnson Torre, one of five
Italian father Mexican mother. His grandfather, Ernest Ray founded the
forty nine Ers with his pal Tony Morribido, and he
was raised outside of San Francisco and Keis Art was
(28:23):
his place. He started trombone in fourth grade and he
was ten ticklesby right, Ronnie proficient. Listen to that show.
Instead of uditching it for a gee bar, drums or
a microphone, he's stuck with it. In high school, and
it was a different time, you know. Back then in
(28:43):
the sixties, he's in a band with his brother who
played the sacks, and he was a hell of a
football player. Went to cal State Sacramento, won.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
A football scholars co hornete.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
While being a tromboner. He was in their College of Music.
Was invited to play in famous trumpeter Hannibal Lacumbe's band
that led to his being invited into Roland Kirk's outfit.
Decided Sacto wasn't for him, so he transferred.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I got a can out of Sacto.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
You got the game this week, North Texas. Let's go
mean Green College of Music dn't best ever death metal
band out of dead. Carlos Santana had him play with
him in the seventies and then he became the touring
tromboner for Ray Charles.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
I did not know this.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I really didn't know any of this. Actually, he has
been the tromboner in the SNL band since nineteen eighty five,
I mean forty years. This dude's been in the Saturday
Night Live band as their trombonist, and you never really
noticed them. I don't know how often they call upon
a trombone.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah, you just you know, you don't never, you just
don your eyes don a track.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
To it, do uh. He teaches jazz trombone at the
Manhattan School of Music since eighty eight nineteen seventy though.
He gets into the conck shells to the conk, way
into it deep dive. He would make regular trips to
the Caribbean. He would search for shells. He figured out
(30:14):
how to craft mouthpieces carefully tuned to specific pitches and
as you hear here pee when he plays them. As
a soloist, he will frequently switch between shells, each limited
in its register, like the seal with the big thing
(30:35):
of horns and listen to all the most people. So
he did the solo, and the band comes in and.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
The people love it.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
There's like ten thousand people.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
At this show. I want to hear watch this guy
blow the conk.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
His largest shell is from the Great Barrier of Australia.
His name is Stephen Turrey. That shell has arranged between
D and E below middle.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
C oh well, let me write that down too.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
He has a group called Sanctified Shells, essentially a shell choir.
It's almost all brass players that double on seashell. Listen
to that thing, got an album, a tour, and as
you heard there, people go to see him play the
shells and they freak out. He's a hell of a player.
(31:29):
He does everything in the world of jazz, Latin jazz.
He is considered one of the finest players of Venezuelan
moroccas and perhaps the greatest cow bell player on earth.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Well, that's what we need some more of around here.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Right works at Juilliard. He won the down Beat. That's
you know, the jazz mag Happy seventy six. Steve Turrey.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Very interesting. Coming up next, football, which you also made
find interesting, especially if you're a conk player. Put your
lips in blow around the dolphins bodily nose or the
Buffalo's horn. Tonight Thursday night football kickoff at five point fifteen.
Will be back on tomorrow at one one o'clock. Stay tuned.
(32:22):
Everybody think, what am I ready to kip gone? Well, yeah,
