second was not a minor deal but instead a torn
Labram and the Dodgers and his people say that he
will in fact be ready for spring training.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
But the biggest thing going on this week, by far
is Matt and I waxing down our surfboards and hitting
the far Oh five freeway. Hooroy helta. Those guys are

A lot of times January shows up with us and
she'll open that happy hour window to two o'clock, not three. Well,
she'll open that door.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It's kind of like the Dodger Parade. Once the celebration starts,
you don't think you're gonna be hugging Kershaw eye to
eye with his nipple, But there you are with his nipple,
having a great time.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
I never knew a big piece of pepperoni could look
so tasty. Come here, Clayton, give me a hug.

love to see you. Yes, we'll be there that start
to two on Thursday. Don't make a fool of us
with the short promotion. Show up. It is your duty
as a great sports talk listener. It is not sports
(03:08):
talk by the top story of the end, top story
of it show Dodgers hot stove you we're gonna stove
it up? Well we aren't. We are, but we're not.
I thought, Lord Jesus, there's a fire.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
We are, but we're not. Because we started to stove
it up with Dave yesterday. We stove the little, We
stove the little, and he said, by.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Jehov there's gonna be a stove. Right, that is what
he said, jehov I said, they won the thing. Is
anybody gonna care about the stove? He said, by jehove,
there's gonna be a stove.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
So I started thinking about it on the way home
after he made that proclamation, and I thought, he said,
by Jehovah, there's gonna be a stove.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I mean, you know, jeez.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Now, of course I didn't start thinking about it till
after I sucked back handful of minutes of the incomparable
adam ouslen Clipper pregame very important. Nice win for the
clips home over the Spurs. The wall came through. You
heard about the wall.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, but during the show, I did hear about the wall.
I hear. It's amazing.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Tim Kates announced breaking news as it happened live while
we were on the air. Qualifying offer for THEO Scar,
no qualifying offer for Walker Buehler, shark face, and Kershaw
turned down his player option for ten million bucks. A
(04:31):
lot of news to swamp right on us. Yeah, and
that's stoves. That's the pilot light. That is the pilot
light on the stove byo.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
U.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Kershaw will have knee meniscus and that damn blasted toe,
the ruptured planter plate surgeries, it's just little cleanup, guys.
That's all it is. To look cleanup.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
He intends to play next season. Now I could be wrong,
and maybe he'll prove me wrong, but I would guess
he's opting out of ten million dollars. I don't think
is him and a nice guy and taking less because
of the surgery. He'll probably say I went.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Under the knife. I'm gonna be healthy and I'm gonna
get paid market rate. What if there's bone chips in
there the size of the big fridos, dip them in
that chili con party. That really.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
The ten mill was there as a backstop had he
suffered some sort of catastrophic career ending thing. Golden parachute,
thanks for all you've done, Kershaw sort of thing. Now,
that's not what I was thinking about on the way home,
by the way, but those aren't the things that happen.
Those are factual. The Dodgers gave ti Oscar Hernandez a
qualifying offer, which he most certainly will decline. It will
(05:37):
limit his market, so he gets a little hosed there,
But maybe both sides figure something out. Buehler did not,
and as Dave said, maybe that sends a signal to
the rest of the league that they're a little concerned
about the health and there's not a real robust market
for him. So he could be had for less than
the twenty one million dollars and Kershaw opted out. Now,
what was in fact, but with speculation on our part
(06:00):
when we had our dalliance with Dave, was hey, man,
what are they gonna do Dave. At least Dodger's gonna do.
They gonna make a red at Wan Soto.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It wasn't surprised me. Now they needed outfielders, so we
did that. We talked about Snell, Zilla, We did well.
He Dave brought up Snell.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Dave brought up Snell. Corbin Burns was brought up Willia Domas.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I talked to some people. Will he's a good friend,
and Iyer he's talking to the Giants.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
We heard that Max Freed. The Dodgers need starters, they
need outfielders. Can they really go into twenty twenty five
with Miguel Rojas as their shortstop? What about their own
guys postseason hero Keith k Hernandez.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I don't know if they're keeping Flaherty around right, clearly
he drinks. But is Freed gonna be the next Harvard
west Lake type? To come on?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
And what about what about our favorite super reliever Blake Tridon.
He's a free agent. What do ain't to do with
your own guys? Man glassy eyes?
Speaker 2 (06:55):
And here's what I came up with. He's a dog.
You can't send him to the kennel. Nope. Uh.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
After perusing mlbtrade rumors dot Com for a while after
seeing that Rory Sasaki rookie Sasaki turned down a contract
offer from the Chibe Lota Marines and Ken Rosenthal saying
at the club decides to post him, which still could
(07:22):
be a long shot. The Dodgers would be overwhelming favorites
to sign the twenty three year old who throws a
hundred and two miles an hour. I was in that
rabbit hole for an hour. I was in the stove.
My head was in the stove for an hour.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Call the coven, Matt's in the oven.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yes, And in that moment the coven spoke to me
and I say, I say, I say to myself.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
What am I doing? Who cares?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
This is scar tissue, this is muscle memory. What I'm
doing is the b for the Padre fans, for the
Yankee fans, for the Mets, for the Astros, to the victors,
go the Spoils. The Dodgers are done. They did it.
They knocked off the Padres after falling behind to one.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
That's why I was asking Dave, what kind of stove
can we have? Jehove. If the Dodgers said there's going
to be a stove.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
The Padres deadline acquisitions. They purged prospects to win it all.
Now they're the ones on Mlbtrade Rumors dot Com.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You say nothing else matters.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I'm saying you got a Mets owner who's worth ten
billion bucks, who's already told everybody, Hey, Wan Soto, whatever, man,
you want to be an Aaron Judges shadow for the
rest of your career? Do you want to make thirty
million bucks more? And come run Queen's Hop on the
bridge and come on over pal Let them have that.
Let the Yankee fans bitch and moan about the comments
(08:57):
from Joe Kelly, who wasn't even active for the postseas
and yet somehow finds his way into the story. They
knocked off the Yankees, the all powerful pin Stripes in
a pounding, humiliating production, celebrating on that no longer hallowed
ground in the shadow of new and sterile Memorial Park.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
They have their own salad garden, though they do. That
was a good nugget from the playoffs. So I don't
care about snell Zilla. It'd be great for Dave, it'd
be hilarious. Are you Blake Snell? I am if you
want me to be dogs? So you're like, never care
for what they do, never care, never care for what.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
They Oh, I don't care if the Giants get Willia
Domis no and Max Freed take them No, They're all
over spending to close the gap. The Dodgers can do
nothing and still start twenty twenty five with a one
two three in their rotation A glass now, Yamamoto and Otani, Well.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Matt, I mean, look, there's all these weird arguments in
the world about the legacy media versus you know, where
you could just go and find the news for yourself.
And then there's guys like us, like media types, you know,
that have our own show and stuff, and then there's
real media. Dave Roberts on Mookie Bets podcast today, Mookie
(10:19):
Bets asking Dave Roberts, what would you like for Santa
to put in the Dodger sack.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
I want to bring back a guy that we had
in the bullpen this year. I think that we talked
a little bit about earlier. I want to I would
love for Santa to bring me another real media bullpen
arm who's a high leverage free agent. I want a
starting pitcher, and I think if we can do that,
(10:49):
and I want to bring a guy that had a
couple of big homers for us in the postseason, that
was with us this year before we can bring that
guy back from a Latin American country.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Hey, kid, that's too much, all right, ask for one
thing from Santa Well, be thankful.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You circle all this crap in the catalog you in me.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Well, while they do that, here's what I want you
to do about your fans.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I want you to take a deep breath.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I want you to watch videos of Kik at Canes.
I I want you to watch video of Walker Buehler
at Dick's of Clayton cry and while getting a hug
from Vassa and enjoy for once, for the first time
since nineteen eighty eight, because if you read COVID Curveball,
(11:41):
you know, and if you remember, you know. In twenty twenty,
how are we celebrating the Dodgers World Series championship. I'll
tell you how in the middle of the street outside
of a Mexican restaurant where they were serving margaritas from
a hostess stand, and I couldn't stand within twenty feet
of somebody watching them win a World Series That was
no celebration. This is your celebration. So I did some
(12:07):
legwork for you. I went online to see what prices
were clocking in at and found some items you could
purchase if you're interested at the MLB shop for the
Dodgers locker room hat thirty four bucks, okay, fifty nine
fifty with the World Series patch forty four bucks, Hoodie
(12:28):
eighty dollars, and unfortunately the Mister Cartoon clown mask. Sorry
to report you'll have to wait six to nine weeks
as they are out of stock.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
But that's all right. Like you know, you'd just be patient.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
And you would think I would stop there, Yeah, but no,
p I took it a step further. I started digging around,
take a step further, and I went to Petermallard dot
com because I wanted to see, Hey, white guys who
liked to spend money on clothing run the company. But
I'm a good time having guy too. On casual Friday
(13:04):
show everybody right. You can get yourself the Jubilee Performance
Polo with World Series logo for one hundred and fifty bucks.
You can get the quarter zip for one eighty five

And you better be you better be a C suite executive.
If you're gonna get the puffy vest with the late

Matt and I two to five day and alive Bjys
in Huntington Beach two to five. Be there. We will
see you right on Beach Boulevard and Eddinger off the
four oh five. Come on down and see the Petros
(15:43):
some money show. All right, Matt, it is time for
the F one report. It was a sauny weekend in Brazil,
don't we know it, Matt, All the time we've spent
down there. A ton hold on Migo, but not for
the evil Dutch Prince Max first stopping, who took back
(16:08):
control of the Driver's championship with a dominant drive and
interlagos and the spirit of the greatest wet weather driver ever,
the great Brazilian champion Senna. Max stormed back with a
remarkable victory, charging through the field after starting in p
seventeen to score his first race win since Chure done
(16:29):
real definitely handling the changing weather conditions while putting on
a masterclass the Concordia University Masters in Coaching style class
hosted by Team Kates tour in the Victory Who's coming
on this week? Tim Volleyball Coaching Mission Viejo Bingo, Really, Mngo.
(16:53):
You know I'm subscribed to that podcast and I didn't
even realize it shows up right here there It is
right there, bing bang boom Lee. You this master's a coach.
I like how masters and coaching are written out real
block letters, but the end is written beautifully in cursive.
Such a class I would have done comic sands, but
that's just me for stopping. Wasted little time when the
red lights went out, making up seven places over his
(17:15):
first two laps, and then taken advantage of a well
time red flag that allowed him a free tire change.
While other drivers struggled in the slippery conditions, the lustful
Dane breezed around the Interlagos circus, setting seventeen fastest lap
times in the process, taking his first Grant free wins
in Spain all the way back in June, ending in
(17:37):
ten race winless street. He's now been in the lead
of the Drivers' championship for a record eight hundred and
ninety six consecutive days, passing the great Michael Shoe back at.
He now heads to Vegas in three weekends knowing that
the Drivers' Championship is in sight. A win in Vegas,
(17:57):
regardless of where the sprite like land on Ors finishes,
will secure his fourth consecutive championship. Oh my lords. Yes.
Aside from the return to dominance of Matt Max, the
other surprise of the weekend was that of the alpine
(18:17):
team Estemona Cone and Pierre Gasli. The all French team
had not completed a single race lap inside the top
five ball season coming into Brazil, a Chris Taylor like
swinging miss performance to put into baseball terms. But all
that change on Sunday and Interlagos. The flying French tandem,
(18:38):
whose troubled relationship is well known, well the French, they
don't get along with each other. Caught up like Verlain's
and Rambau, they took advantage of the tricky conditions on
Sunday to record a double podium finished like Ace and Gary,
a twin ball sack, Yes if you will. How historic
was that outcome? First time since nineteen The two French
(19:02):
drivers whose names I'll just mispronounce, finished on the podium
for the Tricolor. Oh my god, what did you do?
What did you do? Olivier Ponnie and Sean Alise. What
(19:25):
the Alpine drivers did was catapult the French team from
ninth in the Constructors' Championships all the way to sixth,
a massive haul of thirty three points with three Grand
Prix remaining. If they were to hold that position, it
could meet as much as fifty million dollars to the
French team at the end of the season, somewhere near
half of Tennessee's nil slush fund. I think LSA.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Taylor's custom suits for bargain rates for professional athletes once
they get drafted. I believe that's his legacy. Beautiful, buy
these three suits. It'll only cost you forty grand.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Sounds like a deal if you would dial uh legal
support eight nine million. That's what I was gonna do.
Fifty million, way more than even sweet Chain. People of
France love the twelve twelve papie clad McLaren team of
(20:30):
Sprite Light Lando Norris and his Wallaby teammate Oscar Pastree.
Weekend got off to a perfect start as they locked
out the sprint grid. Pstree would then allow Lando to
flutter through at the end to take the win and
put more pressure on for stopping, but the celebration was
short lived. Norris would nail a brilliant lap to take
poll for the Grand Prix early Sunday morning in Quali,
(20:54):
but that success did not carry over to the main race.
Yeah shut up O. The sprite like Brent would once
again give up the lead going into the first corner,
as has become his custom, this time the kiss, no, no,
get off, bad first step. He's not like Keiki Vandawah,
curiously odd looking George Russell swooped him and then he
(21:18):
faded as the afternoon progressed to finish sixth, with the
young Oscar behind him at eight. It was the weakest
result for McLaren, led by the Portley team boss Zach Brown,
but nonetheless they leave Interlagos having moved seven points further
ahead and the constructors Championship over the scooterya of Ferrari.
(21:39):
Nice job of damage control for the papayas they are
now thirty six points ahead of Ferrari. The Formula One
circus returns to the United States and the deserts of
Nevada in three weeks for the second Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Two thousand and three saw the F one drivers tra
to tackle the all new circuit through the streets of
Sin City last November ten pm local time, lights out,
(22:02):
three point nine mile circuit, seventeen turns with speeds that
rival the Temple of Speed in Manza.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Did the Sadi lady get tickets for his kisgeta going
to that.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
She asked for him again last night. She reminded me
that they are forty four percent lower than they were.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
A year considerably lower. And I bet they're gonna keep
going down.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Kates, I know, I got my own Sadie Lady might
be going to Vegas.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Yep. I just hope nobody sucks up another man hole
into their engine. The drivers will hit speeds of more
than two hundred twenty beuse per hour on a long
street that takes them down the strip past the Belagio
Caesars and the Venetian lit a bit to Bozeculo. Nope, nope,
it's whom will be from whom. The only thing that
could slow them down would be another loose band hole
(22:46):
cover as we said, perhaps a credential, the ros MARKAZI
in the wrong area. That's what you do there, both
of which would destroy a car, as it did for
Carlos Signs during free practice one last years. Ah, no,
I just hit a ground hog. Yeah no, it was
(23:08):
not a groundhog or a rash Dicky. Hopefully a rash
stays off the circuit and sticks to the media. Rup
Come on, look at his view? You want a helicopter tour.
While the buzz of the inaugural race has died down,
there's considerable talk for this season. As you can see
the city Lady my Ready Vine for taking down forty
four percent last year's Grand Free. He was one of
(23:28):
the top five races of the season with her stopping
holding off a hard charging Little Chuck Leclair and teammate
the Great LP Top of Teal Sergio Perez with the
victory Ken Max close out his fourth consecutive drivers' championship
under the casino lights, will Lando an oscar show up
into the Vegas lights to keep the Taposi from celebrating
a Ferrari Constructors' Championship. The drama will be palpable, just
(23:52):
like a plot from an ABC crime drama known as
Vegas starring Robert Rick as Las Vegas Gumshoe Detective Dan
Pana good stuff, not the stupid show. Later with James
con I thought, you're right, I'm talking about old school.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Was that the one that Jaymore's wife was in? Yes, yes, Nikki,
that was later? That was the other Vegas.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
This was the old one. Yes, that guy had a
good head of hair. And that is your f one

Petro some money A five seventy LA Sports your home
of the twenty twenty four World Series Champion Dodgers. Breaking
news today. Turns out that show Hail Tani had a
torn labrum h following the shoulder injury, sliding into second
surgery on it said no worries, he will be full
go and ready during training camp spring spring training. Uh so,
(25:28):
all good there, but yes, in fact, it wasn't just
a subluxation, it wasn't just whatever this or that. It
was a torn labram. Surgery today arthroscopic, and he will
be ready to go when spring training arrives in February.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
All right, Well that's big news, Matt, huge news, and
we got it right. When Vic the Brick was on
and it really knocked him off his ski. It ruined Lituia. Yeah,
he said show time. He didn't say on Tony saw it.
He said the show. I began to the show. He
called him the show, the show like the baseball video game.
Good to hear the show is OK. And that was
(26:02):
kind of insulting. It was.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
It was, and it was such an easy toss with
Gary Sinisee for him to build off of.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Either way, everything is on the iHeartRadio app that you
missed will be on a Huntington Beach on Thursday. Don't
miss that show from two to five Huntington Beach. Bjays
We're gonna be out. You can come see us. You
won't be required to do anything but have a great
time and enjoy great sports talk. Matt. Now, we do
the story every year. It's a bit of an annual
and it's a four hour show today and there's a
(26:30):
little bit of a twist. Monday night in beautiful Florence, Oregon,
the Florence Mayor Rob Ward was at the Exploding Whale
Memorial Park, flanked by two people in whale costumes, one
alive and smiling, the other a dead whale with the
(26:54):
crossed eyes, and they officially declared November twenty four the
month to memorialize our favorite exploding whale. From November twelfth,
nineteen seventy.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
State Highway Division not only had a whale of a
problem on its hands, but had a stinky whale of
a problem what to do with one forty five foot
eight ton whale dead on arrival on the beach near Florence.
Speaker 7 (27:24):
It had been so long since a whale had washed
up in Lane County nobody could remember how to get
rid of one. In selecting its battle plan, the Highway
Division decided the carcass couldn't be buried because it might
soon be uncovered. It couldn't be cut up and then
buried because nobody wanted to cut it.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Up, and it couldn't be burned.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
So dynamite it was, some twenty cases or a half
ton of it. The hope was that the long dead
Pacific gray whale would be almost disintegrated by the blast,
and that any small pieces still around after the explosion
would be taken care of by seagulls and other scavengers. Indeed,
the seagulls had been standing nearby all day as.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Everything was being made alady.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
We asked George Thornton, the highway engineer in charge of
the project, for his final observation.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
Well, I'm confident that it'll work. The only thing is
we're not sure just exactly how much explosives it'll take
to disintegrate this thing. So the scavenger, seagulls and crabs
and what knock can clean it up.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
As it might be more than a one day job.
Speaker 8 (28:22):
If there's any large chunks left and up, we may
have to do some other cleanup, possibly set another charge.
Speaker 7 (28:30):
Dyamite was buried primarily on the leeward side of the
big mammal, so as most of the remains would be
blown toward the sea. About seventy five bystanders, most of
them residents who had first found the whale to be
an object of curiosity before they tired of its smell,
were moved back a quarter of a mile away. The
sand dunes there were covered with spectators and land lubber newsmen,
shortly to have become land blubber newsman for the blasted
(28:54):
blubber beyond all believable bound.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
That's good alliteration on that.
Speaker 9 (29:04):
Here we go, our.
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Cameras stopped rolling immediately after the blast. The humor of
the entire situation suddenly gave way to our run for
survival as huge chunks of whale blubber fell everywhere. Pieces
of meat passed high over our heads, while others were
falling at our feet. The dunes were rapidly evacuated as
spectators escaped both the falling debris and the overwhelming smell.
A parked car over a quarter of a mile from
(29:46):
the blast sight was the target of one large chunk.
The passenger compartment literally smat. Fortunately no human was hit
as badly as the car over. Everyone on the scene
was covered with small particles of dead whale. As for
the success the effort, well, the seagulls who were supposed
to clean things up were nowhere in sight, either scared
away by the explosion or kept away by the smell.
(30:08):
That didn't really matter. The remaining chunks were of such
a size that no respectable seagull would attempt to tackle anyway.
As darkness began to set in, the highway crews were
back on the beach burying the remains, including a large
piece of the carcass which never left the blast sight.
It might be concluded that should a whale ever wash
ashore on Lane County again, those in charge will not
only remember what to do, they'll certainly remember what not
(30:31):
to do.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
So there is an Exploding Whale park. There's a soof
John Stephens song about the exploding whale. The Portland Pickles
Baseball Club in twenty twenty two have Exploding Whale Night
where they wear an exploding Whale uniform and they blow
up a giant cardboard whale. But this year is even bigger,
Matt because this year the guy that did that report,
(30:56):
the local reporter Paul Linman, will be He's signing autographs
at a big event on Sunday at a brewery in Florence, Oregon.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
He should be celebrated. It is one of the best
newscasts we've ever heard, have ever played on this show.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
I don't think there we played a lot. The fifty
fourth Exploding Whales Celebration and commemoration will take place from
noon to four Sunday, November tenth at Homegrown Public House
Brewery hus House. Well, I wish it was that way
in Florence, and it is free and open to the
(31:34):
public and reporter Paul Linman from the greatest television local
report we've ever heard will be there, and there's also
a Whale Trail week. He's probably doing publicity. Should we
put him on? Yeah, right, Kate, So I think we
maybe reach out to Paul Howe.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
See if I mean, we've got to call Theonian, We've
got to call the Orgonians. He's probably got a social
media page somewhere, Instagram, Twitter, something like that.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
It's probably pretty old.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Capitalize on this toward the nation, autograph signings all over the.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Country, four year anniversary. He's probably in his eighties, So Paul,
will you remember about that? Paul, Welcome to AM Radio

she'll open that door.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It's kind of like the Dodger Parade. Once the celebration starts,
you don't think you're gonna be hugging Kershaw eye to
eye with his nipple, But there you are with his nipple,
having a great time.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
I never knew a big piece of pepperoni could look
so tasty. Come here, Clayton, give me a hug.

love to see you. Yes, we'll be there that start
to two on Thursday. Don't make a fool of us
with the short promotion. Show up. It is your duty
as a great sports talk listener. It is not sports
(03:08):
talk by the top story of the end, top story
of it show Dodgers hot stove you we're gonna stove
it up? Well we aren't. We are, but we're not.
I thought, Lord Jesus, there's a fire.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
We are, but we're not. Because we started to stove
it up with Dave yesterday. We stove the little, We
stove the little, and he said, by.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Jehov there's gonna be a stove. Right, that is what
he said, jehov I said, they won the thing. Is
anybody gonna care about the stove? He said, by jehove,
there's gonna be a stove.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
So I started thinking about it on the way home
after he made that proclamation, and I thought, he said,
by Jehovah, there's gonna be a stove.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I mean, you know, jeez.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Now, of course I didn't start thinking about it till
after I sucked back handful of minutes of the incomparable
adam ouslen Clipper pregame very important. Nice win for the
clips home over the Spurs. The wall came through. You
heard about the wall.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, but during the show, I did hear about the wall.
I hear. It's amazing.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Tim Kates announced breaking news as it happened live while
we were on the air. Qualifying offer for THEO Scar,
no qualifying offer for Walker Buehler, shark face, and Kershaw
turned down his player option for ten million bucks. A
(04:31):
lot of news to swamp right on us. Yeah, and
that's stoves. That's the pilot light. That is the pilot
light on the stove byo.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
U.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Kershaw will have knee meniscus and that damn blasted toe,
the ruptured planter plate surgeries, it's just little cleanup, guys.
That's all it is. To look cleanup.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
He intends to play next season. Now I could be wrong,
and maybe he'll prove me wrong, but I would guess
he's opting out of ten million dollars. I don't think
is him and a nice guy and taking less because
of the surgery. He'll probably say I went.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Under the knife. I'm gonna be healthy and I'm gonna
get paid market rate. What if there's bone chips in
there the size of the big fridos, dip them in
that chili con party. That really.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
The ten mill was there as a backstop had he
suffered some sort of catastrophic career ending thing. Golden parachute,
thanks for all you've done, Kershaw sort of thing. Now,
that's not what I was thinking about on the way home,
by the way, but those aren't the things that happen.
Those are factual. The Dodgers gave ti Oscar Hernandez a
qualifying offer, which he most certainly will decline. It will
(05:37):
limit his market, so he gets a little hosed there,
But maybe both sides figure something out. Buehler did not,
and as Dave said, maybe that sends a signal to
the rest of the league that they're a little concerned
about the health and there's not a real robust market
for him. So he could be had for less than
the twenty one million dollars and Kershaw opted out. Now,
what was in fact, but with speculation on our part
(06:00):
when we had our dalliance with Dave, was hey, man,
what are they gonna do Dave. At least Dodger's gonna do.
They gonna make a red at Wan Soto.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It wasn't surprised me. Now they needed outfielders, so we
did that. We talked about Snell, Zilla, We did well.
He Dave brought up Snell.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Dave brought up Snell. Corbin Burns was brought up Willia Domas.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I talked to some people. Will he's a good friend,
and Iyer he's talking to the Giants.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
We heard that Max Freed. The Dodgers need starters, they
need outfielders. Can they really go into twenty twenty five
with Miguel Rojas as their shortstop? What about their own
guys postseason hero Keith k Hernandez.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I don't know if they're keeping Flaherty around right, clearly
he drinks. But is Freed gonna be the next Harvard
west Lake type? To come on?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
And what about what about our favorite super reliever Blake Tridon.
He's a free agent. What do ain't to do with
your own guys? Man glassy eyes?
Speaker 2 (06:55):
And here's what I came up with. He's a dog.
You can't send him to the kennel. Nope. Uh.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
After perusing mlbtrade rumors dot Com for a while after
seeing that Rory Sasaki rookie Sasaki turned down a contract
offer from the Chibe Lota Marines and Ken Rosenthal saying
at the club decides to post him, which still could
(07:22):
be a long shot. The Dodgers would be overwhelming favorites
to sign the twenty three year old who throws a
hundred and two miles an hour. I was in that
rabbit hole for an hour. I was in the stove.
My head was in the stove for an hour.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Call the coven, Matt's in the oven.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yes, And in that moment the coven spoke to me
and I say, I say, I say to myself.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
What am I doing? Who cares?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
This is scar tissue, this is muscle memory. What I'm
doing is the b for the Padre fans, for the
Yankee fans, for the Mets, for the Astros, to the victors,
go the Spoils. The Dodgers are done. They did it.
They knocked off the Padres after falling behind to one.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
That's why I was asking Dave, what kind of stove
can we have? Jehove. If the Dodgers said there's going
to be a stove.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
The Padres deadline acquisitions. They purged prospects to win it all.
Now they're the ones on Mlbtrade Rumors dot Com.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You say nothing else matters.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I'm saying you got a Mets owner who's worth ten
billion bucks, who's already told everybody, Hey, Wan Soto, whatever, man,
you want to be an Aaron Judges shadow for the
rest of your career? Do you want to make thirty
million bucks more? And come run Queen's Hop on the
bridge and come on over pal Let them have that.
Let the Yankee fans bitch and moan about the comments
(08:57):
from Joe Kelly, who wasn't even active for the postseas
and yet somehow finds his way into the story. They
knocked off the Yankees, the all powerful pin Stripes in
a pounding, humiliating production, celebrating on that no longer hallowed
ground in the shadow of new and sterile Memorial Park.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
They have their own salad garden, though they do. That
was a good nugget from the playoffs. So I don't
care about snell Zilla. It'd be great for Dave, it'd
be hilarious. Are you Blake Snell? I am if you
want me to be dogs? So you're like, never care
for what they do, never care, never care for what.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
They Oh, I don't care if the Giants get Willia
Domis no and Max Freed take them No, They're all
over spending to close the gap. The Dodgers can do
nothing and still start twenty twenty five with a one
two three in their rotation A glass now, Yamamoto and Otani, Well.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Matt, I mean, look, there's all these weird arguments in
the world about the legacy media versus you know, where
you could just go and find the news for yourself.
And then there's guys like us, like media types, you know,
that have our own show and stuff, and then there's
real media. Dave Roberts on Mookie Bets podcast today, Mookie
(10:19):
Bets asking Dave Roberts, what would you like for Santa
to put in the Dodger sack.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
I want to bring back a guy that we had
in the bullpen this year. I think that we talked
a little bit about earlier. I want to I would
love for Santa to bring me another real media bullpen
arm who's a high leverage free agent. I want a
starting pitcher, and I think if we can do that,
(10:49):
and I want to bring a guy that had a
couple of big homers for us in the postseason, that
was with us this year before we can bring that
guy back from a Latin American country.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Hey, kid, that's too much, all right, ask for one
thing from Santa Well, be thankful.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You circle all this crap in the catalog you in me.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Well, while they do that, here's what I want you
to do about your fans.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I want you to take a deep breath.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I want you to watch videos of Kik at Canes.
I I want you to watch video of Walker Buehler
at Dick's of Clayton cry and while getting a hug
from Vassa and enjoy for once, for the first time
since nineteen eighty eight, because if you read COVID Curveball,
(11:41):
you know, and if you remember, you know. In twenty twenty,
how are we celebrating the Dodgers World Series championship. I'll
tell you how in the middle of the street outside
of a Mexican restaurant where they were serving margaritas from
a hostess stand, and I couldn't stand within twenty feet
of somebody watching them win a World Series That was
no celebration. This is your celebration. So I did some
(12:07):
legwork for you. I went online to see what prices
were clocking in at and found some items you could
purchase if you're interested at the MLB shop for the
Dodgers locker room hat thirty four bucks, okay, fifty nine
fifty with the World Series patch forty four bucks, Hoodie
(12:28):
eighty dollars, and unfortunately the Mister Cartoon clown mask. Sorry
to report you'll have to wait six to nine weeks
as they are out of stock.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
But that's all right. Like you know, you'd just be patient.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
And you would think I would stop there, Yeah, but no,
p I took it a step further. I started digging around,
take a step further, and I went to Petermallard dot
com because I wanted to see, Hey, white guys who
liked to spend money on clothing run the company. But
I'm a good time having guy too. On casual Friday
(13:04):
show everybody right. You can get yourself the Jubilee Performance
Polo with World Series logo for one hundred and fifty bucks.
You can get the quarter zip for one eighty five
the hoodie two hundred bucks.

and I'm like, what am I gonna do with these?

(15:43):
some money show. All right, Matt, it is time for
the F one report. It was a sauny weekend in Brazil,
don't we know it, Matt, All the time we've spent
down there. A ton hold on Migo, but not for
the evil Dutch Prince Max first stopping, who took back
(16:08):
control of the Driver's championship with a dominant drive and
interlagos and the spirit of the greatest wet weather driver ever,
the great Brazilian champion Senna. Max stormed back with a
remarkable victory, charging through the field after starting in p
seventeen to score his first race win since Chure done
(16:29):
real definitely handling the changing weather conditions while putting on
a masterclass the Concordia University Masters in Coaching style class
hosted by Team Kates tour in the Victory Who's coming
on this week? Tim Volleyball Coaching Mission Viejo Bingo, Really, Mngo.
(16:53):
You know I'm subscribed to that podcast and I didn't
even realize it shows up right here there It is
right there, bing bang boom Lee. You this master's a coach.
I like how masters and coaching are written out real
block letters, but the end is written beautifully in cursive.
Such a class I would have done comic sands, but
that's just me for stopping. Wasted little time when the
red lights went out, making up seven places over his
(17:15):
first two laps, and then taken advantage of a well
time red flag that allowed him a free tire change.
While other drivers struggled in the slippery conditions, the lustful
Dane breezed around the Interlagos circus, setting seventeen fastest lap
times in the process, taking his first Grant free wins
in Spain all the way back in June, ending in
(17:37):
ten race winless street. He's now been in the lead
of the Drivers' championship for a record eight hundred and
ninety six consecutive days, passing the great Michael Shoe back at.
He now heads to Vegas in three weekends knowing that
the Drivers' Championship is in sight. A win in Vegas,
(17:57):
regardless of where the sprite like land on Ors finishes,
will secure his fourth consecutive championship. Oh my lords. Yes.
Aside from the return to dominance of Matt Max, the
other surprise of the weekend was that of the alpine
(18:17):
team Estemona Cone and Pierre Gasli. The all French team
had not completed a single race lap inside the top
five ball season coming into Brazil, a Chris Taylor like
swinging miss performance to put into baseball terms. But all
that change on Sunday and Interlagos. The flying French tandem,
(18:38):
whose troubled relationship is well known, well the French, they
don't get along with each other. Caught up like Verlain's
and Rambau, they took advantage of the tricky conditions on
Sunday to record a double podium finished like Ace and Gary,
a twin ball sack, Yes if you will. How historic
was that outcome? First time since nineteen The two French
(19:02):
drivers whose names I'll just mispronounce, finished on the podium
for the Tricolor. Oh my god, what did you do?
What did you do? Olivier Ponnie and Sean Alise. What
(19:25):
the Alpine drivers did was catapult the French team from
ninth in the Constructors' Championships all the way to sixth,
a massive haul of thirty three points with three Grand
Prix remaining. If they were to hold that position, it
could meet as much as fifty million dollars to the
French team at the end of the season, somewhere near
half of Tennessee's nil slush fund. I think LSA.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Taylor's custom suits for bargain rates for professional athletes once
they get drafted. I believe that's his legacy. Beautiful, buy
these three suits. It'll only cost you forty grand.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Sounds like a deal if you would dial uh legal
support eight nine million. That's what I was gonna do.
Fifty million, way more than even sweet Chain. People of
France love the twelve twelve papie clad McLaren team of
(20:30):
Sprite Light Lando Norris and his Wallaby teammate Oscar Pastree.
Weekend got off to a perfect start as they locked
out the sprint grid. Pstree would then allow Lando to
flutter through at the end to take the win and
put more pressure on for stopping, but the celebration was
short lived. Norris would nail a brilliant lap to take
poll for the Grand Prix early Sunday morning in Quali,
(20:54):
but that success did not carry over to the main race.
Yeah shut up O. The sprite like Brent would once
again give up the lead going into the first corner,
as has become his custom, this time the kiss, no, no,
get off, bad first step. He's not like Keiki Vandawah,
curiously odd looking George Russell swooped him and then he
(21:18):
faded as the afternoon progressed to finish sixth, with the
young Oscar behind him at eight. It was the weakest
result for McLaren, led by the Portley team boss Zach Brown,
but nonetheless they leave Interlagos having moved seven points further
ahead and the constructors Championship over the scooterya of Ferrari.
(21:39):
Nice job of damage control for the papayas they are
now thirty six points ahead of Ferrari. The Formula One
circus returns to the United States and the deserts of
Nevada in three weeks for the second Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Two thousand and three saw the F one drivers tra
to tackle the all new circuit through the streets of
Sin City last November ten pm local time, lights out,
(22:02):
three point nine mile circuit, seventeen turns with speeds that
rival the Temple of Speed in Manza.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Did the Sadi lady get tickets for his kisgeta going
to that.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
She asked for him again last night. She reminded me
that they are forty four percent lower than they were.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
A year considerably lower. And I bet they're gonna keep
going down.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Kates, I know, I got my own Sadie Lady might
be going to Vegas.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Yep. I just hope nobody sucks up another man hole
into their engine. The drivers will hit speeds of more
than two hundred twenty beuse per hour on a long
street that takes them down the strip past the Belagio
Caesars and the Venetian lit a bit to Bozeculo. Nope, nope,
it's whom will be from whom. The only thing that
could slow them down would be another loose band hole
(22:46):
cover as we said, perhaps a credential, the ros MARKAZI
in the wrong area. That's what you do there, both
of which would destroy a car, as it did for
Carlos Signs during free practice one last years. Ah, no,
I just hit a ground hog. Yeah no, it was
(23:08):
not a groundhog or a rash Dicky. Hopefully a rash
stays off the circuit and sticks to the media. Rup
Come on, look at his view? You want a helicopter tour.
While the buzz of the inaugural race has died down,
there's considerable talk for this season. As you can see

the top five races of the season with her stopping
holding off a hard charging Little Chuck Leclair and teammate
the Great LP Top of Teal Sergio Perez with the

into the Vegas lights to keep the Taposi from celebrating

go and ready during training camp spring spring training. Uh so,
(25:28):
all good there, but yes, in fact, it wasn't just
a subluxation, it wasn't just whatever this or that. It
was a torn labram. Surgery today arthroscopic, and he will
be ready to go when spring training arrives in February.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
All right, Well that's big news, Matt, huge news, and
we got it right. When Vic the Brick was on
and it really knocked him off his ski. It ruined Lituia. Yeah,
he said show time. He didn't say on Tony saw it.
He said the show. I began to the show. He
called him the show, the show like the baseball video game.
Good to hear the show is OK. And that was
(26:02):
kind of insulting. It was.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
It was, and it was such an easy toss with
Gary Sinisee for him to build off of.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Either way, everything is on the iHeartRadio app that you
missed will be on a Huntington Beach on Thursday. Don't
miss that show from two to five Huntington Beach. Bjays
We're gonna be out. You can come see us. You
won't be required to do anything but have a great
time and enjoy great sports talk. Matt. Now, we do
the story every year. It's a bit of an annual
and it's a four hour show today and there's a
(26:30):
little bit of a twist. Monday night in beautiful Florence, Oregon,
the Florence Mayor Rob Ward was at the Exploding Whale
Memorial Park, flanked by two people in whale costumes, one
alive and smiling, the other a dead whale with the
(26:54):
crossed eyes, and they officially declared November twenty four the
month to memorialize our favorite exploding whale. From November twelfth,
nineteen seventy.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
State Highway Division not only had a whale of a
problem on its hands, but had a stinky whale of
a problem what to do with one forty five foot
eight ton whale dead on arrival on the beach near Florence.
Speaker 7 (27:24):
It had been so long since a whale had washed
up in Lane County nobody could remember how to get
rid of one. In selecting its battle plan, the Highway
Division decided the carcass couldn't be buried because it might
soon be uncovered. It couldn't be cut up and then
buried because nobody wanted to cut it.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Up, and it couldn't be burned.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
So dynamite it was, some twenty cases or a half
ton of it. The hope was that the long dead
Pacific gray whale would be almost disintegrated by the blast,
and that any small pieces still around after the explosion
would be taken care of by seagulls and other scavengers. Indeed,
the seagulls had been standing nearby all day as.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Everything was being made alady.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
We asked George Thornton, the highway engineer in charge of
the project, for his final observation.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
Well, I'm confident that it'll work. The only thing is
we're not sure just exactly how much explosives it'll take
to disintegrate this thing. So the scavenger, seagulls and crabs
and what knock can clean it up.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
As it might be more than a one day job.
Speaker 8 (28:22):
If there's any large chunks left and up, we may
have to do some other cleanup, possibly set another charge.
Speaker 7 (28:30):
Dyamite was buried primarily on the leeward side of the
big mammal, so as most of the remains would be
blown toward the sea. About seventy five bystanders, most of
them residents who had first found the whale to be
an object of curiosity before they tired of its smell,
were moved back a quarter of a mile away. The
sand dunes there were covered with spectators and land lubber newsmen,
shortly to have become land blubber newsman for the blasted
(28:54):
blubber beyond all believable bound.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
That's good alliteration on that.
Speaker 9 (29:04):
Here we go, our.
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Cameras stopped rolling immediately after the blast. The humor of
the entire situation suddenly gave way to our run for
survival as huge chunks of whale blubber fell everywhere. Pieces
of meat passed high over our heads, while others were
falling at our feet. The dunes were rapidly evacuated as
spectators escaped both the falling debris and the overwhelming smell.
A parked car over a quarter of a mile from
(29:46):
the blast sight was the target of one large chunk.
The passenger compartment literally smat. Fortunately no human was hit
as badly as the car over. Everyone on the scene
was covered with small particles of dead whale. As for
the success the effort, well, the seagulls who were supposed
to clean things up were nowhere in sight, either scared
away by the explosion or kept away by the smell.
(30:08):
That didn't really matter. The remaining chunks were of such
a size that no respectable seagull would attempt to tackle anyway.
As darkness began to set in, the highway crews were
back on the beach burying the remains, including a large
piece of the carcass which never left the blast sight.
It might be concluded that should a whale ever wash
ashore on Lane County again, those in charge will not
only remember what to do, they'll certainly remember what not
(30:31):
to do.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
So there is an Exploding Whale park. There's a soof
John Stephens song about the exploding whale. The Portland Pickles
Baseball Club in twenty twenty two have Exploding Whale Night
where they wear an exploding Whale uniform and they blow
up a giant cardboard whale. But this year is even bigger,
Matt because this year the guy that did that report,
(30:56):
the local reporter Paul Linman, will be He's signing autographs
at a big event on Sunday at a brewery in Florence, Oregon.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
He should be celebrated. It is one of the best
newscasts we've ever heard, have ever played on this show.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
I don't think there we played a lot. The fifty
fourth Exploding Whales Celebration and commemoration will take place from
noon to four Sunday, November tenth at Homegrown Public House
Brewery hus House. Well, I wish it was that way
in Florence, and it is free and open to the
(31:34):
public and reporter Paul Linman from the greatest television local
report we've ever heard will be there, and there's also
a Whale Trail week. He's probably doing publicity. Should we
put him on? Yeah, right, Kate, So I think we
maybe reach out to Paul Howe.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
See if I mean, we've got to call Theonian, We've
got to call the Orgonians. He's probably got a social
media page somewhere, Instagram, Twitter, something like that.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
It's probably pretty old.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Capitalize on this toward the nation, autograph signings all over the.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Country, four year anniversary. He's probably in his eighties, So Paul,
will you remember about that? Paul, Welcome to AM Radio
in Los Angeles. Launch everything I already said, So happy
Exploding Whale Week, everybody. The Petrosen Money Show wishes you
all the best, and we'll be right back with a
(32:27):
whole other hour or two of great, great sports talk.
We got an hour great sports talk. We've got quick hits,
we've got the fun Fact, we'll do Dead and Alive,
and then we'll get you to Brewin Insider
