fall into place. Song it out, Vic, Thank you and

hour Petro sand Money show. On this we just won't
be defeated. Wednesday, we are your home of the brand
new Dodgers with Blake Snell. Can't you Snell? That Snall
(01:06):
talk to David Vassa all about it in the very
first segment of the show. You could podcast that on
your iHeart radio app. Monday show will start at two
o'clock because of Monday Night football. Is there any speculation
does a whin Blake Snell will be introduced to the
Dodger public.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
No, it hasn't officially been announced. With the Thanksgiving weekend here,
I'm sure we'll get something maybe over the weekend officially
with an announcement, and who knows, maybe a press conference
next week to introduce Blake Snell is the newest Dodger.
This is exciting and I think nobody's more excited than
David Vasse. You heard him in the first hour of Petros.
The excitement, the amount of text that he has got
(01:43):
from people.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
My phone lit up like a Christmas tree.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I mean, everybody knows how much he loves snell Zilla
as he calls him. And now to have him as
a travel buddy, as a buddy on the road to
go eat with. I mean, this is this is David Vassay.
It's Christmas come early.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I want to say it too loudly, but you know,
sometimes you know if somebody is like right in your
face that the relationship's not the same.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Oh, I get you, you know what I mean? Yeah,
you get him. You kind of get him an increment,
so I go. You see him every couple of months,
but now you see him every day. He's like Eh,
it's a little bit different.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Yeah, I got you anyway. Speaking of Blake Snell, why
don't we get to the final hour fun Fast? In effect, it's.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
The yeah We're three.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Blake Snell is from Seattle. We know that. And he
is from Shorewood High School in the Shoreline, Washington area,
which is a suburb of Seattle. Shoreline High School home
of the storm Rate.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Oh that's cool name.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Yeah, and they have a blue, white and green motif,
so a real aquatic type of deal. And some notable
alums from there, Dave Bazon from the great indie rock
band Pedro the Lion, and Chris Cornell dropped out, Oh
(03:23):
from Sound Garden.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
But he went there for a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
He was there. He was there a picture named Riley O'Brien.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Oh, Riley O'Brien went there.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Nowhere near his big time is Blake Snell?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Now his Shoreline High School by the water? Is that
more inland.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Shorewood High School. Shore Line, a Washington shore line is
located between the city limits of Seattle and the Snowhomish
County border, Okay, nine miles from downtown Seattle. So there
is a little bit of a overview on whose smell
(04:05):
is when you want to smell that smell.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Can't wait.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
It seems like a nice place to live. Beautiful all right, tim,
let's get to it. It is the what's the word
of the day's space?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Hurt me with his words? The word of the day.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Well, it is time. It's the Petros papadekas annual Thanksgiving
public service announcement. Back in town Thanksgiving weekend, count wait
to get together with the bros.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And they said, what you think is a good idea?
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Really is it?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I knew this so bad idea?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
You believe I'm home for Thanksgiving. I can't wait to
go out with all my girlfriends and get drunk. So
before you make the biggest mistake of your life, let
Petros talk some sense into you. Here we go. Well,
I've been doing this for twenty plus years. I've been
doing this since before I was on the radio. But
(05:01):
I've fallen victim to it as well as we all have,
but it is and as you know, Tim, as I
get a little older, I'd be more reluctant to tell
people what to do. But it's a good reminder though,
for anybody of all ages. There is a demand for
this and people want to hear it. So it is
time to attack friends Giving or Thanksgiving or blackout Wednesday
(05:24):
or Skanksgiving or I think that's probably what Don's son
said and then Don didn't want to repeat it. Copy
or whatever you think is popping off tonight in your
town for the people that I went to high school
with and now we're so old it doesn't matter. But
it would be Hennesses, Hennesses and Redondo Beach. There are
(05:46):
many hennesses, but the original hennesesies Redondo Beach would be
the one. So and Tim, would you care to where
does everybody go from Burrows High around here?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
If they're back in town, they're probably going to Tony's
Darts away to the Snug. Maybe some of the older
guys and gals like myself are going to the Blue
Room up on San Fernando. Maybe Inkwell Tavern, which is
right next door to the Blue Room.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Say the name all the people you went to high
school with will most likely are many of them, the
desperate ones. At least. We'll go to a local bar
to gather with others that you went to high school
with and hopes that something, perhaps something will happen, some
connection that you missed out on, the elongation of some relationship.
(06:32):
Something may come to fruition, something may happen, something is
going to crack, something is going to go your way,
and I am always here to tell you that it
is most probably going to end in bitter disappointment. I
know that gillet on the stove is such a sensation.
(06:53):
Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones who doesn't
get burned, but I'm here to tell you it's a
bad idea ninety percent of the time, and you will
think what the f was I thinking? And you may
well be reminded very quickly, hopefully or even worse later
(07:14):
in a different location, of why those people are no
longer in connection with you in the first place, especially
in a world where it is so easy to connect.
And I know I sound like a real wet blanket here,
and I've shortened this speech from previous years, but I
(07:35):
do speak from experience, and what I want to say
is you most likely are not going to like what happens,
and the alcohol factor makes it more volatile and worse.
So my advice remains the same. Stay home, see somebody
(07:57):
during the day. If you want to go have some
coffee with somebody, maybe go have a beer with one
person far away from where everybody else is going. Side note,
try not to pull your hamstring or do your achilles
and a turkey bowl, pick up tackle football game with
a bunch of other people and try to prove what
(08:18):
a hardass you are?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Are you playing again this year?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
I'd never play. We don't play now? Who am I?
We all played for real, We can't go play. People
get hurt now, they get more hurt. Now, Who am I?
You might ask to give advice?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Who are you to give advice? Petrose?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Well, I'm not a functional person. I suffer from high
anxiety and other ailments, and I have a difficult time
with all kinds of things that people have an easy
time with. But I believe this advice to be solid.
I believe this advice to be important. I also realize
norms have changed and people taxed, and they're on all
(08:57):
kinds of different connecting websites through the computer and WhatsApp
and DMS and porn ub. But I still believe this
practice exists. I think young people still do this. Matt
was talking about it last night with his daughter, mm hmm.
I don't know if the Kates girls have been talking
about it. So take my advice and stay out of
(09:18):
the bars tonight. I'll say it again, stay out of
the bars. Now. One of my other little pieces of
advice that is obsolete now used to be that, you know,
if you feel like calling people and getting desperate late
at night and going through the yearbook and using people's numbers,
sink your phone in the toilet. But that was back
(09:40):
when phones were you know, less expensive and they were
connected to the wall. Yeah, you know now with the
cell phone, you know, it's very expensive and they're not,
you know, easily replaceable. You know, you sit there at
the Verizon store for two hours while they download all
your stuff, so that that part of advice is no
longer applicable. But stay out of the bar, everybody, stay
(10:01):
out of the bars and take my advice. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I get your message for the young people, and you
are spot on with this, Petros, and have been the
entire time. I think of people maybe in our age,
their forties, maybe even some that are older in their fifties.
You know that what with the high school in the eighties,
and maybe they're divorced, or maybe they're single now, or
maybe they never got married, and this is a night
that they could really feast on. No pun intended with
Thanksgiving being tomorrow, to go out and find that old flame,
(10:27):
or go out and find a Facebook group and go
to a local watering hole and catch up with people.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
If you're both at the bar to do that, it's
you know, maybe there's a better way. Sure, Oh right,
you know, I don't know who am I to say?
Who am I to say? You're spot on? Though with
the young kids, that is absolutely spot on. That is
the PSA. And I started doing it as a young man.
I'm no longer that. All right, it's time for the
number of the day.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Here's my number, number of the days. The number of
the day is eight one eight. Last night Petrose, with
my girls back in town, had a chance to see
my brother in law, my sister in law and their
daughter and we met up here in the eight one
eight in the San Fernando Valley and we met up
at eight one eight Brewing. Now I've had the beer before,
and it's on tap and a lot of different places
(11:09):
here in southern California. Eight one eight Brewing you can
get a bevmo. It's a great beer.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Not the same as Kylie Jenner's or Kendall Jenners eight
one eight Tequila.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Absolutely not, absolutely not. And they actually have a tasting room,
which I did not know if I've always just drank
their beer at different spots. We've gone to Fenny's here
in Burbank has got them on tap. The Valley Girl
Blonde aale which is really good. Last night we went
to the eight one eight Brewing in Canoga Park, their
actual tasting room, and had a fantastic time hanging out
(11:42):
on De Soto Street there in Canoga Park. Had some
pizzas and beers. My wife even had some beer. Yeah,
it's kind of in the middle of the valley, so
if you were gonna take the one eighteen or the
one on one, which go on the north side in
the south side of the San Fernando Valley parallel, it's
sort of right in the middle, so you can get
there from either the one eighteen or the one on one,
but it's a great spot. They got a pizza joint
(12:02):
right next door that does the food for him. They've
got great beers on tap. And when I found out
by being there last night and looking around and talking
to people, they are huge Dodger fans. In fact, that's
a Dodger viewing spot for a home and road games.
And they got specials and it's a great location if
you're in the eight one eight the San Fernando Valley
if you want to watch a Dodger game with common
(12:22):
Dodger fans, have some good beer, have some good food.
Eight one eight brilliant. They got some great names. The
Canoga Crush is the name of one of their beers.
The eight one eight Meatch, Colnvaldi Girl is the Mitchellatta
that they have there. They have the eight one eight
fest Buyer, and they have a beer that's a darker
called the Gravity Hill Beer. Now, for those who live
(12:46):
in the eight one eight, Gravity Hill is a spot
in Silmar in the mountains in which it's believed that
it's paranormal activity that takes place there. You can go,
park your car in your car will go and reverse.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Oh yes, I know, we've talked about that.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yes, Hill and Silmar and though they have a beer
named after Gravity Hill at eight one eight Brewing, So
shout out to the eight one eight Brewing. People went
there last night, spent a lot of money on great
beer and food, had a great time my first time there,
right there in the middle of the valley.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
You think it could fit the Petros and Money.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Show, You know what, Petros My wife asked me that,
my brother in law asked me that, my sister lost
me that, and we all we all kind of decided
probably not. Okay, Yeah, it's probably a little too small.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Well, why I have an intimate show.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
If we had an intimate show of one hundred and
fifty people, now you could do that. Yeah, yeah, maybe
not a summer tour stop, but it'd be cool to
have a spot there, maybe during the Dodger season.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
All right, I don't wonder if Ronnie's been there. All right,
we'll be right back with the Petros and Money shows,
College Football, Whip around Black, and then we'll do the
Dead Guy Birthday and a live guy Birthday of the Day,
and then we'll get to the Clippers on this. We
just won't be defeated Wednesday on your Home of Blake

Speaker 1 (14:52):
And with that being said, let's get to it. It
is the College Football Whip Around for flat Next week
we'll have the Championship Week College Football Whip Around. It
was a bad week for me at two and four
against the spread last week tim. I was on the
right side of the Notre Dame blowout over Army, but
(15:14):
I had UCLA plus four and a half against USC
and the Trojans won nineteen thirteen.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
This is a bad week in college football, a lot
of upsets, Petrols.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
I'll have my USC Notre Dame pick a little later
in the Whip, but without further ado. We began the
Week fourteen Whip with the most unlikely story in the
college football playoff watat to the Treasure Valley of Boise,
(15:44):
Idaho Friday, Oregon State five and six at number eleven,
Boise State ten to one. The Broncos are a twenty
and a half point favorite. It's a nine am game
on Big Fox. Is two wins away from earning a
bye in their first ever twelve team college football playoff
(16:07):
and the first ever twelve team college football players.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
And they're gonna get there, right, I mean, they win
on Saturday, win the conference championship game they're in.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yeah, they but winning the conference championship game against UNLV's
an game. UNLV is a mother effort and Boise barely
survived them the last time. But a non power for
school earning a bye that sounds like an unforeseen loophole
that the Bonehead Committee will legislate out of the twenty
(16:35):
twenty five guideline.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah, this won't happen again.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
So the Broncos better make the most of their playoff
by this year and in his first full season, Boise
coach Spencer Danielson, friend of the show, is having a
Chris Peterson like season. And Chris Peterson is mentoring from Afar.
Trust me, there is he really, Oh yes, and he
mentors all these he mentors. Jonathan Smith Jonathan Smith from
(17:00):
Michigan State.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
He mentioned Sean mcvagh a couple months ago, right, Yeah,
he tossed to everybody.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
He's a very famous coup superstar running back Ashton genty
who's simply the best running back I've seen in years.
We'll get another crack and impressing the Heisman voters against
the Beeves. I feel Oregon State spent a lot of
emotion in last week's nail by the win over lot Wazoo.
This game would make them Bowl eligible, but I'm riding
(17:26):
with the Broncos minus the twenty and a half points
on the blue.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Turf flat flat.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Moving on Saturday, Michigan six and five at the Horseshoe.
Number two Ohio State ten and one buck Eyes twenty
and a half point favorites ooh nine am on Fox
Big Nude. After three straight losses to Michigan, the Buckeyes
will beat the crap out of the Big Blue this Saturday.
(17:57):
The buck Nuts will still need to win the Big
Ten Conference championship next week to earn a playoff by
but this is one of the easiest picks of twenty
twenty four Ohio State minus the twenty and a half,
I believe they will eat Michigan in the horseshoet Sorry.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Kates, It's gonna be close for three quarters. Ohio State
pulls it out big at the end, but it'll be close.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Well, thank you. Let's get to the duel of the Desert.
Number sixteen Arizona State at nine and nine and two.
A renaissance season for Kenny Willie Dillingham at Arizona four
and seven a terrible year.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
What has happened to Arizona? They got two guys are
gonna be first round picks.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Their three best defensive players are out and have been
out for most of the year. Basically, the whole brain
trust of the defense.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
But they should outscore people like sixty to fifty.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
They can't protect the quarterback and he's been holding the
ball too long, and that's pretty much the long and
the short of it. The Big twelve preseason media poll
had the Asu Sun Devils finishing sixteenth out of sixteen
teams last Now the Devils are ranked twelfth by the
(19:16):
Playoff Committee. It's quite a turnaround, but the duel in
the Desert awaits a four and seven. Arizona has been
one of the biggest disappointments in the country. As Tim
Kates just voiced his unwonted opinion on My Wildcast.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
When they've got a wide receiver, it's gonna be a
top four.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yes, I know he's from Servi Tetaroa. The linebacker from
Servites out and the quarterback has taken a step back. Noah,
The feat the top of the Big twelve is wild.
There's a bunch of three team and even four way
ties for first place. So according to the Big twelve
tie breaker scenarios posted Sunday, ASU can win this game
(19:55):
and still not make the conference championship game. All that
being said, I will bravely take the Arizona Wildcats plus
nine and a half. Wow. Wow, are you sure about that? Yeah,
it's in Tucson, Okay, but you just hit the whip.
(20:17):
Thank you. Washington is six and five ball eligible under
fish at number one, Oregon eleven and zero. The Ducks
are nineteen and a half point favorites four point thirty
on NBC. The Ducks and Dogs has emerged as one
of the fiercest rivalries that has survived realignment, and it's
(20:38):
really been a hot one for about thirty years now.
In the Big Ten, these two no longer end the
season with their in state brethren. They will end the
season against each other. That being said, we pray that
the Apple Cup in the Civil War will play on forever,
and we pray for soft landings for the Beeves and
(21:00):
Wazoo in the new Pac twelve. It's not funny cats.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
They'll be okay. They got a lot of money. They'll
be swimming in it.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
As I understand that the Ducks are the clear cut
number one in the playoff rankings, Yes, but if they
lose to U dub and the Big Ten title game,
there is no guarantee they would make the playoff because
Oregon has nothing locked up yet I will ride with
the Ducks minus the nineteen and a half. I think
Dan Lanning will take out his former mistakes on this
(21:34):
current machination of Jedfish's Washington team. Back number three, Texas
eleven and one at number twenty Texas A and M
eight and three. Is this your game?
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Yeah, this is Compass Media Network's national game. I'll be
in the studio host kick off at four forty two.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Horns are a six and a half point favorite four
point thirty on ABC. Happy report that one of the
greatest college football rivalries that was ruined by realignment for
twelve years has been revived. The Horns and Aggies last
met on Thanksgiving weekend in twenty eleven, when Justin Tucker
of Texas kicked the game winning field goal and the
(22:15):
big twelve thriller. They've been showing that ad nauseum on TV.
That's when A and M bounced for the SEC, and
after a dozen years, these teams meet with a lot
at stake. The winner will advance to meet Georgia in
the SEC championship game. So if Texas are in A
(22:35):
and M can win two straight games, it will have
a buy in the twelve team playoff. Even with a
soft schedule, the long Horns would still have a good
shot at a playoff at large berth With a loss
this week, you.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Know it's crazy. I talked to jod Day Baron, the
cornerback for Texas, and I asked him about the rivalry.
Petros said, said he's taking about it. He goes, Man,
I was so young when they last played. I don't
remember at all, he goes, this is kind of just
another game for us.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Well, the fans will remember, just another game for the
SEC Championship. I don't think so, jah Day. The Aggies
are coming off a quadruple overtime thriller loss to Auburn.
Maybe that's why he's mad. I'm taking Texas minus six
and a half to comfortably take care of business. Yeah,
(23:25):
number five. Notre Dame ten and one at USC the
Iris seven and a half point favorites twelve thirty on CBS.
Could the Trojans play the role of spoiler on Saturday?
I mean they could fight, don't fight all fight all.
A loss could and should knock Notre Dame out of
the top twelve of the playoff rankings. I mean, with
(23:49):
losses to Northern Illinois, and USC. The Irish wouldn't deserve
a bit, maybe not even to the beef of Brady Ball,
which I don't think exists anymore.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I think you're right, a loss.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Could and should knock them out. Northern Illinois four and
five since beating the Irish in South Bend. USC was
four and five until winning its last two games. So
where's the computer that would keep the Irish out of
the twelve team playoff? The human committee will put the
Irish in with a win or with a loss with anything.
(24:25):
Notre Dame's TV ratings, potential and marketing power wouldn't even
register on a BCS type computer, but their popularity will
be heavily considered by the human playoff committee. Yes, I
guarantee a two loss Notre Dame would make the twelve
team playoff because the brand is the biggest brand in
college football and Texas with one loss will make it,
(24:49):
or two losses would make it because they are the
second biggest brand in college football. ESPN would fire and
replace the entire committee if a two loss Notre name
wasn't in the brack. But I don't think Notre Dame
is in jeopardy of losing to USC. So the whole
thing is moot. Irish quarterback Riley Leonard, who transferred from
(25:10):
Duke at a slow start, but he's now full flight
passer and runner. USC has walked on a fine line
all season with much lesser teams and then now get
a motivated Irish team. Since USC has covered every game
this season, it's been an underdog LSU and Michigan Penn State.
(25:32):
I will take the Trojans plus seven and a half.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Jeremiah Love and Riley Leonard will combine for two hundred
yards rushing against USC. Market market market eight. Dude, it's
gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I got Rutgers six and five at Michigan State five
and six. The Spartans are one and a half point
favorites twelve thirty on FS one. Flying on the Red
Eye tomorrow night to call this Big ten battle with
Dan Helly and looking forward to meeting with longtime Petros
and Money Show listener Dodger fan Jonathan Smith, who coaches the.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Spartan Hey telling the invite still there. If he wants
to come in the suite for a game, I'll let
him know.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah. It's been a difficult first year for Jonathan in
the Big ten, but his team will become Bowl eligible
with a Winquaqua. So there is your college football whip desk,
Fruit and los uegos. Everybody. Enjoy the games and enjoy Thanksgiving.
We got Clippers coming up pregame at three tip off.
(26:32):
It's for right here on AFI seventy LA Sports. Tim
andiow be back in the very next segment with your
dead and Live guy Birthday of the Day, and then
we'll get to the game. All right, that is going
to be it. The Petros and Money Show will be
(26:55):
back on Monday at two o'clock before Monday Night Football.
We will be excited to be back because Blake Snell
is a Dodger. You thought Vick was excited with Otdi signed.
(27:15):
We talked to David Vasse in the first segment of
the show. You could podcast that on the iHeartRadio app. Tim,
I believe you have the dead Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, very excited about this. Petros beating out some legends
and don't get mad at me beating out chick Hern,
Bruce Lee, cal listeners, the listeners and the guy who
does PMS dena live guy on Twitter. He's probably gonna
say something, but beating out Chick Hearn, Bruce Lee, cal Worthington,
and Jimmy Hendrix. A lot of great, I mean great
names there. Happy would have been one hundred and twenty
(27:51):
third birthday to Edward Britt Huston, American sports commentator. He
was he's the first guy to lay the grand works
for what is now modern sports reporting on radio. In television,
he did reporting, He did play by play. He was
born the Bronx. His parents were from Germany. One of
(28:13):
three kids, he was the only one to survive. His dad, Henry,
was a fan of boxing, so they named him after
a boxer named Jimmy Edward Britt. His name is Edward
Britt Hughsing, but he went by the name Ted Husing
on the radio, Okay. He started in the Northeast w
Jay Z got a job there. Then he went to
(28:34):
do play by play for the Boston Braves. In nineteen
twenty seven, he left to help his mentor, Jay Andrew White,
go start this thing called CBS Radio. He was a
mentor to some of the big powerhouses like Mel Allen
in broadcasting. He started doing sporting events back in the twenties, boxing,
(28:55):
horse racing, track and field. Seven World Series. He reported
on tennis matches, golf, four Olympic Games, the Indy five
hundred college football. He went from CBS to w HN
though Petros because he had a falling out with Major
League Baseball after he criticized World Series umpires in the
(29:16):
nineteen thirty four World Series. He was banned from doing
play by play WOW for the Fall Classic by then
commissioner Kennesaw Mountain Landis.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
On Nassaw Mountainlanders.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
The Commissioner of Baseball banned him from calling the World
Series after his comments of the umpires in nineteen thirty four.
He also was banned for two years by Harvard for
covering home games after he called their All American quarterback
Barry Woods's performance quote putrid Ooh he was tough. Yes,
(29:49):
So Harvard banned him for two years. Major League Baseball
said you can't call any more World Series. He went
from CBS to when got into doing some disc jockeying,
he moved down to the South, bounced around a little bit,
started doing some TV shows voiceover work. The guy was
a real hustler. He is the second inductee ever into
(30:11):
the National Sportscasters and Sports Writers Association Hall of Fame.
He was part of the American Sportscasters Association's Hall of
Fame inaugural class with a guy he helped, mentor Red
Barber with one of the guys he worked with, absolutely
Bill Stern, another pioneer. He basically set the structure for
(30:32):
what it is now common football play by play that
still used today. He devised some of the earliest spotting
boards to identify players on the field. He also would
interview coaches and players before the games.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
And he would seem familiar at all.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
No, he would attend at the time what they called
strategy sessions before games. He's got a star in the
radio section of the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard.
His on air voice was heard over the radio in
nineteen thirty six is Broadway production of Dumb Dumb. He's
done so much. I mean, this is a living legend. Unfortunately,
he would pass away too young at the age of
(31:10):
sixty here in Pasadena where he was buried. Happy would
have been one and twenty third birthday to Ted Huston.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Well, that's very I never heard about that. I never
knew who Ted Huston was. All Right, your dead guy,
Birthday of the Day, a broadcast legend. You're a live
guy married to one of the most famous boxers of
all time and it did not end well. Robin Gibbons
Oh is sixty years old today.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
She was on Ahead of the class correct.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Yes, American actress and director. Gibbons is from the suburbs
of New York City. She was very impressive as a
young person, a young model and actress, very attractive. She
was kind of a young genius, the youngest person ever
to enroll at Sarah Lawrence pre mad and acted part
time and I know what You're gonna think. After a
(32:03):
guest spot on The Cosby Show, Bill Cosby became her mentor.
Oh no, well, he convinced her to drop out of
school med school, Oh no, and act. And he said,
if you don't blow up in two years, I will
get you back into med school and I'll pay for it.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Oh boy, And she blew up.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
She got ahead of the class. Different strokes The Women
of Brewster Place with Oprah A Rage in Harlem, which
is a very celebrated film here on the Petrosen Money Show.
Film Noir Corner Boomerang with Eddie Murphy in nineteen ninety four,
she posed in Playboy. She said she did it so
she could write her own article. She directs for lifetime.
(32:44):
Maybe she even directs some Holly Rodbins and Pete movies. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I heard she had gone behind the camera after her Uh, well, she.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Still does all kinds of stuff. A bad marriage to
Mike Tyson, very traumatized, very very bad. Look look it
up both of them.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
It was a bad time for Mike's a bad time
for her. Yeah, it really was. It was not pretty.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
It was over in two years.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
She was married to somebody else though.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Well, she married a tennis instructor, and she adopted a
kid and married a tennis instructor, but then had a
baby with a different tennis player. Oh yeah, and she
has had some tax problems. Oh, we all have tax problems,
maybe about twelve years ago. But she continues to work
a payment plan. And she's still around, no doubt. A
(33:31):
lovely lady. The Great Robin Gibbons most known for her
terrible marriage to Mike Tyson.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
No that's not true. She was known for her appearance
behead the class.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
And well, yeah, but head of the Class is not
as important to everybody as it is to you.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Probably you're probably right, so you're probably right about that.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Well, remember everybody, stay out of the bars tonight, be safe,

does a whin Blake Snell will be introduced to the
Dodger public.

No, it hasn't officially been announced. With the Thanksgiving weekend here,
I'm sure we'll get something maybe over the weekend officially
with an announcement, and who knows, maybe a press conference
next week to introduce Blake Snell is the newest Dodger.
This is exciting and I think nobody's more excited than
David Vasse. You heard him in the first hour of Petros.
The excitement, the amount of text that he has got
(01:43):
from people.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
My phone lit up like a Christmas tree.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I mean, everybody knows how much he loves snell Zilla
as he calls him. And now to have him as
a travel buddy, as a buddy on the road to
go eat with. I mean, this is this is David Vassay.
It's Christmas come early.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I want to say it too loudly, but you know,
sometimes you know if somebody is like right in your
face that the relationship's not the same.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Oh, I get you, you know what I mean? Yeah,
you get him. You kind of get him an increment,
so I go. You see him every couple of months,

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Blake Snell is from Seattle. We know that. And he
is from Shorewood High School in the Shoreline, Washington area,
which is a suburb of Seattle. Shoreline High School home
of the storm Rate.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Oh that's cool name.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Yeah, and they have a blue, white and green motif,
so a real aquatic type of deal. And some notable
alums from there, Dave Bazon from the great indie rock
band Pedro the Lion, and Chris Cornell dropped out, Oh
(03:23):
from Sound Garden.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
But he went there for a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
He was there. He was there a picture named Riley O'Brien.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Oh, Riley O'Brien went there.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Nowhere near his big time is Blake Snell?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Now his Shoreline High School by the water? Is that
more inland.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Shorewood High School. Shore Line, a Washington shore line is
located between the city limits of Seattle and the Snowhomish
County border, Okay, nine miles from downtown Seattle. So there
is a little bit of a overview on whose smell
(04:05):
is when you want to smell that smell.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Can't wait.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
It seems like a nice place to live. Beautiful all right, tim,
let's get to it. It is the what's the word
of the day's space?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Hurt me with his words? The word of the day.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Well, it is time. It's the Petros papadekas annual Thanksgiving
public service announcement. Back in town Thanksgiving weekend, count wait
to get together with the bros.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And they said, what you think is a good idea?
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Really is it?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I knew this so bad idea?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
You believe I'm home for Thanksgiving. I can't wait to
go out with all my girlfriends and get drunk. So
before you make the biggest mistake of your life, let
Petros talk some sense into you. Here we go. Well,
I've been doing this for twenty plus years. I've been
doing this since before I was on the radio. But
(05:01):
I've fallen victim to it as well as we all have,
but it is and as you know, Tim, as I
get a little older, I'd be more reluctant to tell
people what to do. But it's a good reminder though,
for anybody of all ages. There is a demand for
this and people want to hear it. So it is
time to attack friends Giving or Thanksgiving or blackout Wednesday
(05:24):
or Skanksgiving or I think that's probably what Don's son
said and then Don didn't want to repeat it. Copy
or whatever you think is popping off tonight in your
town for the people that I went to high school
with and now we're so old it doesn't matter. But
it would be Hennesses, Hennesses and Redondo Beach. There are
(05:46):
many hennesses, but the original hennesesies Redondo Beach would be
the one. So and Tim, would you care to where
does everybody go from Burrows High around here?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
If they're back in town, they're probably going to Tony's
Darts away to the Snug. Maybe some of the older
guys and gals like myself are going to the Blue
Room up on San Fernando. Maybe Inkwell Tavern, which is
right next door to the Blue Room.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Say the name all the people you went to high
school with will most likely are many of them, the
desperate ones. At least. We'll go to a local bar
to gather with others that you went to high school
with and hopes that something, perhaps something will happen, some
connection that you missed out on, the elongation of some relationship.
(06:32):
Something may come to fruition, something may happen, something is
going to crack, something is going to go your way,
and I am always here to tell you that it
is most probably going to end in bitter disappointment. I
know that gillet on the stove is such a sensation.
(06:53):
Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones who doesn't
get burned, but I'm here to tell you it's a
bad idea ninety percent of the time, and you will
think what the f was I thinking? And you may
well be reminded very quickly, hopefully or even worse later
(07:14):
in a different location, of why those people are no
longer in connection with you in the first place, especially
in a world where it is so easy to connect.
And I know I sound like a real wet blanket here,
and I've shortened this speech from previous years, but I
(07:35):
do speak from experience, and what I want to say
is you most likely are not going to like what happens,
and the alcohol factor makes it more volatile and worse.
So my advice remains the same. Stay home, see somebody
(07:57):
during the day. If you want to go have some
coffee with somebody, maybe go have a beer with one
person far away from where everybody else is going. Side note,
try not to pull your hamstring or do your achilles
and a turkey bowl, pick up tackle football game with
a bunch of other people and try to prove what
(08:18):
a hardass you are?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Are you playing again this year?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
I'd never play. We don't play now? Who am I?
We all played for real, We can't go play. People
get hurt now, they get more hurt. Now, Who am I?
You might ask to give advice?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Who are you to give advice? Petrose?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Well, I'm not a functional person. I suffer from high
anxiety and other ailments, and I have a difficult time
with all kinds of things that people have an easy
time with. But I believe this advice to be solid.
I believe this advice to be important. I also realize
norms have changed and people taxed, and they're on all
(08:57):
kinds of different connecting websites through the computer and WhatsApp
and DMS and porn ub. But I still believe this
practice exists. I think young people still do this. Matt
was talking about it last night with his daughter, mm hmm.
I don't know if the Kates girls have been talking
about it. So take my advice and stay out of
(09:18):
the bars tonight. I'll say it again, stay out of
the bars. Now. One of my other little pieces of
advice that is obsolete now used to be that, you know,
if you feel like calling people and getting desperate late
at night and going through the yearbook and using people's numbers,
sink your phone in the toilet. But that was back
(09:40):
when phones were you know, less expensive and they were
connected to the wall. Yeah, you know now with the
cell phone, you know, it's very expensive and they're not,
you know, easily replaceable. You know, you sit there at
the Verizon store for two hours while they download all
your stuff, so that that part of advice is no
longer applicable. But stay out of the bar, everybody, stay
(10:01):
out of the bars and take my advice. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I get your message for the young people, and you
are spot on with this, Petros, and have been the
entire time. I think of people maybe in our age,
their forties, maybe even some that are older in their fifties.
You know that what with the high school in the eighties,
and maybe they're divorced, or maybe they're single now, or
maybe they never got married, and this is a night
that they could really feast on. No pun intended with
Thanksgiving being tomorrow, to go out and find that old flame,
(10:27):
or go out and find a Facebook group and go
to a local watering hole and catch up with people.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
If you're both at the bar to do that, it's
you know, maybe there's a better way. Sure, Oh right,
you know, I don't know who am I to say?
Who am I to say? You're spot on? Though with
the young kids, that is absolutely spot on. That is
the PSA. And I started doing it as a young man.
I'm no longer that. All right, it's time for the
number of the day.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Here's my number, number of the days. The number of
the day is eight one eight. Last night Petrose, with
my girls back in town, had a chance to see
my brother in law, my sister in law and their
daughter and we met up here in the eight one
eight in the San Fernando Valley and we met up
at eight one eight Brewing. Now I've had the beer before,
and it's on tap and a lot of different places
(11:09):
here in southern California. Eight one eight Brewing you can
get a bevmo. It's a great beer.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Not the same as Kylie Jenner's or Kendall Jenners eight
one eight Tequila.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Absolutely not, absolutely not. And they actually have a tasting room,
which I did not know if I've always just drank
their beer at different spots. We've gone to Fenny's here
in Burbank has got them on tap. The Valley Girl
Blonde aale which is really good. Last night we went
to the eight one eight Brewing in Canoga Park, their
actual tasting room, and had a fantastic time hanging out
(11:42):
on De Soto Street there in Canoga Park. Had some
pizzas and beers. My wife even had some beer. Yeah,
it's kind of in the middle of the valley, so
if you were gonna take the one eighteen or the
one on one, which go on the north side in
the south side of the San Fernando Valley parallel, it's
sort of right in the middle, so you can get
there from either the one eighteen or the one on one,
but it's a great spot. They got a pizza joint
(12:02):
right next door that does the food for him. They've
got great beers on tap. And when I found out
by being there last night and looking around and talking
to people, they are huge Dodger fans. In fact, that's
a Dodger viewing spot for a home and road games.
And they got specials and it's a great location if
you're in the eight one eight the San Fernando Valley
if you want to watch a Dodger game with common
(12:22):
Dodger fans, have some good beer, have some good food.
Eight one eight brilliant. They got some great names. The
Canoga Crush is the name of one of their beers.
The eight one eight Meatch, Colnvaldi Girl is the Mitchellatta
that they have there. They have the eight one eight
fest Buyer, and they have a beer that's a darker
called the Gravity Hill Beer. Now, for those who live
(12:46):
in the eight one eight, Gravity Hill is a spot
in Silmar in the mountains in which it's believed that
it's paranormal activity that takes place there. You can go,
park your car in your car will go and reverse.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Oh yes, I know, we've talked about that.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yes, Hill and Silmar and though they have a beer
named after Gravity Hill at eight one eight Brewing, So
shout out to the eight one eight Brewing. People went
there last night, spent a lot of money on great
beer and food, had a great time my first time there,
right there in the middle of the valley.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
You think it could fit the Petros and Money.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Show, You know what, Petros My wife asked me that,
my brother in law asked me that, my sister lost
me that, and we all we all kind of decided
probably not. Okay, Yeah, it's probably a little too small.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Well, why I have an intimate show.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
If we had an intimate show of one hundred and
fifty people, now you could do that. Yeah, yeah, maybe
not a summer tour stop, but it'd be cool to
have a spot there, maybe during the Dodger season.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
All right, I don't wonder if Ronnie's been there. All right,
we'll be right back with the Petros and Money shows,
College Football, Whip around Black, and then we'll do the
Dead Guy Birthday and a live guy Birthday of the Day,
and then we'll get to the Clippers on this. We
just won't be defeated Wednesday on your Home of Blake

For more information, visit tcl dot com.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
And with that being said, let's get to it. It
is the College Football Whip Around for flat Next week
we'll have the Championship Week College Football Whip Around. It
was a bad week for me at two and four
against the spread last week tim. I was on the
right side of the Notre Dame blowout over Army, but
(15:14):
I had UCLA plus four and a half against USC
and the Trojans won nineteen thirteen.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
This is a bad week in college football, a lot
of upsets, Petrols.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
I'll have my USC Notre Dame pick a little later
in the Whip, but without further ado. We began the
Week fourteen Whip with the most unlikely story in the
college football playoff watat to the Treasure Valley of Boise,
(15:44):
Idaho Friday, Oregon State five and six at number eleven,
Boise State ten to one. The Broncos are a twenty
and a half point favorite. It's a nine am game
on Big Fox. Is two wins away from earning a
bye in their first ever twelve team college football playoff
(16:07):
and the first ever twelve team college football players.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
And they're gonna get there, right, I mean, they win
on Saturday, win the conference championship game they're in.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yeah, they but winning the conference championship game against UNLV's
an game. UNLV is a mother effort and Boise barely
survived them the last time. But a non power for
school earning a bye that sounds like an unforeseen loophole
that the Bonehead Committee will legislate out of the twenty
(16:35):
twenty five guideline.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah, this won't happen again.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
So the Broncos better make the most of their playoff
by this year and in his first full season, Boise
coach Spencer Danielson, friend of the show, is having a
Chris Peterson like season. And Chris Peterson is mentoring from Afar.
Trust me, there is he really, Oh yes, and he
mentors all these he mentors. Jonathan Smith Jonathan Smith from
(17:00):
Michigan State.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
He mentioned Sean mcvagh a couple months ago, right, Yeah,
he tossed to everybody.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
He's a very famous coup superstar running back Ashton genty
who's simply the best running back I've seen in years.
We'll get another crack and impressing the Heisman voters against
the Beeves. I feel Oregon State spent a lot of
emotion in last week's nail by the win over lot Wazoo.
This game would make them Bowl eligible, but I'm riding
(17:26):
with the Broncos minus the twenty and a half points
on the blue.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Turf flat flat.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Moving on Saturday, Michigan six and five at the Horseshoe.
Number two Ohio State ten and one buck Eyes twenty
and a half point favorites ooh nine am on Fox
Big Nude. After three straight losses to Michigan, the Buckeyes
will beat the crap out of the Big Blue this Saturday.
(17:57):
The buck Nuts will still need to win the Big
Ten Conference championship next week to earn a playoff by
but this is one of the easiest picks of twenty
twenty four Ohio State minus the twenty and a half,
I believe they will eat Michigan in the horseshoet Sorry.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Kates, It's gonna be close for three quarters. Ohio State
pulls it out big at the end, but it'll be close.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Well, thank you. Let's get to the duel of the Desert.
Number sixteen Arizona State at nine and nine and two.
A renaissance season for Kenny Willie Dillingham at Arizona four
and seven a terrible year.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
What has happened to Arizona? They got two guys are
gonna be first round picks.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Their three best defensive players are out and have been
out for most of the year. Basically, the whole brain
trust of the defense.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
But they should outscore people like sixty to fifty.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
They can't protect the quarterback and he's been holding the
ball too long, and that's pretty much the long and
the short of it. The Big twelve preseason media poll
had the Asu Sun Devils finishing sixteenth out of sixteen
teams last Now the Devils are ranked twelfth by the
(19:16):
Playoff Committee. It's quite a turnaround, but the duel in
the Desert awaits a four and seven. Arizona has been
one of the biggest disappointments in the country. As Tim
Kates just voiced his unwonted opinion on My Wildcast.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
When they've got a wide receiver, it's gonna be a
top four.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yes, I know he's from Servi Tetaroa. The linebacker from
Servites out and the quarterback has taken a step back. Noah,
The feat the top of the Big twelve is wild.
There's a bunch of three team and even four way
ties for first place. So according to the Big twelve
tie breaker scenarios posted Sunday, ASU can win this game
(19:55):
and still not make the conference championship game. All that
being said, I will bravely take the Arizona Wildcats plus
nine and a half. Wow. Wow, are you sure about that? Yeah,
it's in Tucson, Okay, but you just hit the whip.
(20:17):
Thank you. Washington is six and five ball eligible under
fish at number one, Oregon eleven and zero. The Ducks
are nineteen and a half point favorites four point thirty
on NBC. The Ducks and Dogs has emerged as one
of the fiercest rivalries that has survived realignment, and it's
(20:38):
really been a hot one for about thirty years now.
In the Big Ten, these two no longer end the
season with their in state brethren. They will end the
season against each other. That being said, we pray that
the Apple Cup in the Civil War will play on forever,
and we pray for soft landings for the Beeves and
(21:00):
Wazoo in the new Pac twelve. It's not funny cats.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
They'll be okay. They got a lot of money. They'll
be swimming in it.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
As I understand that the Ducks are the clear cut
number one in the playoff rankings, Yes, but if they
lose to U dub and the Big Ten title game,
there is no guarantee they would make the playoff because
Oregon has nothing locked up yet I will ride with
the Ducks minus the nineteen and a half. I think
Dan Lanning will take out his former mistakes on this
(21:34):
current machination of Jedfish's Washington team. Back number three, Texas
eleven and one at number twenty Texas A and M
eight and three. Is this your game?
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Yeah, this is Compass Media Network's national game. I'll be
in the studio host kick off at four forty two.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Horns are a six and a half point favorite four
point thirty on ABC. Happy report that one of the
greatest college football rivalries that was ruined by realignment for
twelve years has been revived. The Horns and Aggies last
met on Thanksgiving weekend in twenty eleven, when Justin Tucker
of Texas kicked the game winning field goal and the
(22:15):
big twelve thriller. They've been showing that ad nauseum on TV.
That's when A and M bounced for the SEC, and
after a dozen years, these teams meet with a lot
at stake. The winner will advance to meet Georgia in
the SEC championship game. So if Texas are in A
(22:35):
and M can win two straight games, it will have
a buy in the twelve team playoff. Even with a
soft schedule, the long Horns would still have a good
shot at a playoff at large berth With a loss
this week, you.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Know it's crazy. I talked to jod Day Baron, the
cornerback for Texas, and I asked him about the rivalry.
Petros said, said he's taking about it. He goes, Man,
I was so young when they last played. I don't
remember at all, he goes, this is kind of just
another game for us.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Well, the fans will remember, just another game for the
SEC Championship. I don't think so, jah Day. The Aggies
are coming off a quadruple overtime thriller loss to Auburn.
Maybe that's why he's mad. I'm taking Texas minus six
and a half to comfortably take care of business. Yeah,
(23:25):
number five. Notre Dame ten and one at USC the
Iris seven and a half point favorites twelve thirty on CBS.
Could the Trojans play the role of spoiler on Saturday?
I mean they could fight, don't fight all fight all.
A loss could and should knock Notre Dame out of
the top twelve of the playoff rankings. I mean, with
(23:49):
losses to Northern Illinois, and USC. The Irish wouldn't deserve
a bit, maybe not even to the beef of Brady Ball,
which I don't think exists anymore.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I think you're right, a loss.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Could and should knock them out. Northern Illinois four and
five since beating the Irish in South Bend. USC was
four and five until winning its last two games. So
where's the computer that would keep the Irish out of
the twelve team playoff? The human committee will put the
Irish in with a win or with a loss with anything.
(24:25):
Notre Dame's TV ratings, potential and marketing power wouldn't even
register on a BCS type computer, but their popularity will
be heavily considered by the human playoff committee. Yes, I
guarantee a two loss Notre Dame would make the twelve
team playoff because the brand is the biggest brand in
college football and Texas with one loss will make it,
(24:49):
or two losses would make it because they are the
second biggest brand in college football. ESPN would fire and
replace the entire committee if a two loss Notre name
wasn't in the brack. But I don't think Notre Dame
is in jeopardy of losing to USC. So the whole
thing is moot. Irish quarterback Riley Leonard, who transferred from
(25:10):
Duke at a slow start, but he's now full flight
passer and runner. USC has walked on a fine line
all season with much lesser teams and then now get
a motivated Irish team. Since USC has covered every game
this season, it's been an underdog LSU and Michigan Penn State.
(25:32):
I will take the Trojans plus seven and a half.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Jeremiah Love and Riley Leonard will combine for two hundred
yards rushing against USC. Market market market eight. Dude, it's
gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I got Rutgers six and five at Michigan State five
and six. The Spartans are one and a half point
favorites twelve thirty on FS one. Flying on the Red
Eye tomorrow night to call this Big ten battle with
Dan Helly and looking forward to meeting with longtime Petros
and Money Show listener Dodger fan Jonathan Smith, who coaches the.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Spartan Hey telling the invite still there. If he wants
to come in the suite for a game, I'll let
him know.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah. It's been a difficult first year for Jonathan in
the Big ten, but his team will become Bowl eligible
with a Winquaqua. So there is your college football whip desk,
Fruit and los uegos. Everybody. Enjoy the games and enjoy Thanksgiving.
We got Clippers coming up pregame at three tip off.
(26:32):
It's for right here on AFI seventy LA Sports. Tim
andiow be back in the very next segment with your
dead and Live guy Birthday of the Day, and then
we'll get to the game. All right, that is going
to be it. The Petros and Money Show will be
(26:55):
back on Monday at two o'clock before Monday Night Football.
We will be excited to be back because Blake Snell
is a Dodger. You thought Vick was excited with Otdi signed.
(27:15):
We talked to David Vasse in the first segment of
the show. You could podcast that on the iHeartRadio app. Tim,
I believe you have the dead Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, very excited about this. Petros beating out some legends
and don't get mad at me beating out chick Hern,
Bruce Lee, cal listeners, the listeners and the guy who
does PMS dena live guy on Twitter. He's probably gonna
say something, but beating out Chick Hearn, Bruce Lee, cal Worthington,
and Jimmy Hendrix. A lot of great, I mean great
names there. Happy would have been one hundred and twenty
(27:51):
third birthday to Edward Britt Huston, American sports commentator. He
was he's the first guy to lay the grand works
for what is now modern sports reporting on radio. In television,
he did reporting, He did play by play. He was
born the Bronx. His parents were from Germany. One of
(28:13):
three kids, he was the only one to survive. His dad, Henry,
was a fan of boxing, so they named him after
a boxer named Jimmy Edward Britt. His name is Edward
Britt Hughsing, but he went by the name Ted Husing
on the radio, Okay. He started in the Northeast w
Jay Z got a job there. Then he went to
(28:34):
do play by play for the Boston Braves. In nineteen
twenty seven, he left to help his mentor, Jay Andrew White,
go start this thing called CBS Radio. He was a
mentor to some of the big powerhouses like Mel Allen
in broadcasting. He started doing sporting events back in the twenties, boxing,
(28:55):
horse racing, track and field. Seven World Series. He reported
on tennis matches, golf, four Olympic Games, the Indy five
hundred college football. He went from CBS to w HN
though Petros because he had a falling out with Major
League Baseball after he criticized World Series umpires in the
(29:16):
nineteen thirty four World Series. He was banned from doing
play by play WOW for the Fall Classic by then
commissioner Kennesaw Mountain Landis.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
On Nassaw Mountainlanders.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
The Commissioner of Baseball banned him from calling the World
Series after his comments of the umpires in nineteen thirty four.
He also was banned for two years by Harvard for
covering home games after he called their All American quarterback
Barry Woods's performance quote putrid Ooh he was tough. Yes,
(29:49):
So Harvard banned him for two years. Major League Baseball
said you can't call any more World Series. He went
from CBS to when got into doing some disc jockeying,
he moved down to the South, bounced around a little bit,
started doing some TV shows voiceover work. The guy was
a real hustler. He is the second inductee ever into
(30:11):
the National Sportscasters and Sports Writers Association Hall of Fame.
He was part of the American Sportscasters Association's Hall of
Fame inaugural class with a guy he helped, mentor Red
Barber with one of the guys he worked with, absolutely
Bill Stern, another pioneer. He basically set the structure for
(30:32):
what it is now common football play by play that
still used today. He devised some of the earliest spotting
boards to identify players on the field. He also would
interview coaches and players before the games.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
And he would seem familiar at all.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
No, he would attend at the time what they called
strategy sessions before games. He's got a star in the
radio section of the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard.
His on air voice was heard over the radio in
nineteen thirty six is Broadway production of Dumb Dumb. He's
done so much. I mean, this is a living legend. Unfortunately,
he would pass away too young at the age of
(31:10):
sixty here in Pasadena where he was buried. Happy would
have been one and twenty third birthday to Ted Huston.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Well, that's very I never heard about that. I never
knew who Ted Huston was. All Right, your dead guy,
Birthday of the Day, a broadcast legend. You're a live
guy married to one of the most famous boxers of

young person, a young model and actress, very attractive. She
