week of great sports talk and it begins here on
(01:09):
this I'm a horse Monday, and we are galloping horse.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
I'm a hood shaped like middle aged white men. We
are headed toward seven o'clock with Dodger talk. Yes, Yes,
and we will gallop forward and put together a holiday show.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Now, generally there is some malice.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
From our show regarding working especially on President's Day, because
nobody loves Lincoln and Washington more than the Petroso money show.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
We take pride in the plethora of information we regularly
provide about President.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
We love the old rail spinner. We do abe Lincoln,
and it is not cool, not cool. And Matt has
usually been the flag carrier, so to speak. He has
carried our colors when it comes to complaining about our
union working on a federal holiday, making us work this
sacrisanct federal holiday.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And we've been we've been worn down by time. I
thought we had this one off. Well, this was our
union had.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Tam is our representative of the union, and let's be honest,
he's very poor.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
He's a poor well, he's poor rap. He's good at
delivering misinformation. Well, he's good at getting kfile riled up
like a year in advance, like hey, you guys are
all gonna get fired, and then you know what it happened.
He was like John the Baptist.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
There.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
The Union would send us almost daily.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Of bad news.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
You guys are gonna get fired.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
No, we're not what's that? What's that galloping? I hear
from a from beyond Tim Kate's coming down and tell
me I'm gonna get fired. Hey, at least you got
that golden mic though at the ceremony, right, that's worth whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
We had our boss bring us one and deliver it. Personally,
it's pretty freaking awesome. We would get maybe what am I? Am?
I right in saying this case? Thrice weekly updates from
our our union representative sounds right?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, And it's this real skill talk. This is holiday schedule, yes,
and Kates informed us that we would We used to.
We have always been on a different holiday schedule than
the iHeart employees because we're represented by the sag After union.
We are in a different union, and our boss would die,
which I explained to the girls in the coffee today,
and they could care less, could not have cared less.
(03:18):
I was sitting there at the coffee place in tarts,
what are.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
You doing today?
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Petros? You got what are you doing with your holiday?
It's like, I gotta work. I'm in a different union.
For the rest of the building, they were like, okay,
the only the coffee. Why are you guys playing Jazma
tast You guys don't know about Guru and Donald Byrd.
Why are you playing this? This album came out before
you were born. Very awkward.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's just on a restaurant channel. Have to play to pay?
You don't have to pay.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
We got any of the rest of the buildings out here.
They're like, God, this guy just get your coffee at
leave please? Can we just can he not get into
Pete's sooner than later? Can he get over the coffee
being already.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
The thing that upside?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
I don't go to the coffee bean anymore, Matt, Corrections
and retractions.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Where are you going now? Corrections?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
I stopped going to the bean and leaf after they
fired our morbidly obese guy. So I Big John, Yeah,
Big Day, you know, the old Big d These guys
don't even remember me.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You know when you hear Big John? What's your first image?
Your mind's eye? What does it see that guy? Can
I go? Can I go?
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Him busting out of a little Dodger jersey, just busting
out of it.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
You're right about bus a bus back from a spring
training game and just sleeping.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Oh okay, okay, well well that's Matts can relate with that.
I see him standing in front of him at.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Weighs four hundred pounds less than the guy, and he
passes out all the time.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
The Dodger jersey is open, and he's got two of
those twenty four ounce god lights. He's double fist in
the twenty four ounce blood lights.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Well, that guy used to be the CEO of Coffee,
Bean and Tea. So now you go where I go
to an artisanal coffee place owned by a guy I know,
a local businessman by the No. No, Every once in
a while they buy my coffee because I'm a good customer,
and they say that one's on me. But it's called
Offset coffee. And there are maybe about five of them
(05:18):
in the South Bay and they're all excellent. There's actually
owned Offset. No, DJ Offset does not exist. There's a
rapper named Offset who was married to Cardi b. They're
going through a nasty divorce yes later yes, bastards, well
bastard and then married. Maybe one of them is legit.
Sure that's neither here nor there. No, he was called
(05:39):
it was callterial to this conversation totally. It was called
Offset coffee. You're familiar with fannies and that make the
famous breakfast burrito, same owner and the big Chinese guy
from Fannies took over his parents place, served only breakfast burritos,
started serving stump Town coffee, which is very famous, yes,
(05:59):
and then started making his own coffee, became a real
coffee head. The reason this is relevant to this conversation
is because there is an offset coffee right by the
chargers Commons on pay and it is. It is excellent,
right by the pizza place. I will hit it up.
You will love the offset coffee.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Anyway. The point is. The point is Union holiday Union holiday.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Not for us.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
We hated it most, not because we had to work
on the holiday, but because if we ever wanted to
take a vacation day because we had something with the
family or whatever, the boss would say, well, now, just
so you know, it's not a union holiday, so I
ought to have to make you take a vacation day.
But I'm gonna look the other way on this one.
I don't want to hear that. I'm gonna look the
other way every day we're here. Every day, you know,
(06:42):
he's telling I'm gonna give you the day off because
I'm gonna look the other way. Okay, all right, appreciate it, boss,
and it came to.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
A certain point. I believe we both feel the same way.
I'm just gonna work that we would just rather work
and complain about working, then actually take the day off
and try to have a meaningful day with the family,
like ninety percent of the rest of the world is doing.
Except there's terrible traffic today.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
For the worst traffic I have had on my way
to work now on the way home.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Got to go full ten minute on Bootsman before we
start the show. I'm happy to be here today. There's
a lot to get into it. I'm thrilled to the show.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Before us put up, I guess at defense, we must
combat the defense with a counter argument. And listen, what
is the advantage we have closing statement? We get the
closing statement, so it works for us on that front.
So we figure, Okay, if they're in today, they present
their case. We're going to present a defense and a
closing argument. We're happy to be here today.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Well let's get it. Let's get it started like the
Black Eyed Peas from East LA. And we'll say this
first little scheduled talk today. David Vasse will join us
in the five o'clock hour Live first ever report for
the twenty twenty five season at Camelback Ranch. The most
(08:00):
anticipated Dodger Spring training ever is at least when they
have as long as they've been in Camelback. Last year
was big with Otani. This year's bigger, not even close.
And uh, we'll also have Mark Medina on. Hopefully he'll
help us excoriate the NBA. I'm tired of putting on
these riders and you're like, hey, that sucked, right, They're like, actually,
(08:21):
I really like what Clutch is doing. It's like, F you, buddy,
you're out. F you, you shill, You're out. Buha, Until
the next time. The chips have to be down though.
He went so he went clutch so hard it was
like he was clutching his boots while he was on
the phone with us.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Well, what happens is if you defend clutch and you
support the clutch platform, they give you a clutch. And
he has got a beautiful, bright red clutch that you
would die for, like a purse, glorious, like a manual transmission,
but like a purse a clutch.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Well, that's what we have going on there. And then
schedule wise, as far as the week goes. We have
full shows most of the week because of the All
Star Game. We got a lot going on. Matt, we
do It's a historic weekend.
Speaker 7 (09:07):
Moore.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Our shows every day, but Thursday Thursday, Petro send money
the meat of the Sandwich, Dodger Spring training baseball at noon,
Clippers basketball pre game at four, tip off at five
against the Bucks, and the honorable Jannis Authentica Wompo, who
was the only man at All Star Weekend that said
what these players are doing is wrong. But he didn't
say it in so many words. He said, this is
(09:28):
the way I do it. This is the way I
respect the game, and I respect the fans, and I
respect my lot in life. It is up to them.
They are grown man. I can tell them what to do,
but this is what I do. Well.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
We're not finished with schedule talk No tomorrow, UCLA Minnesota
tip off at seven thirty thirty. That's not gonna stop
us doing our whole show. But it will happen. Okay,
sucking down in nine mc crownin going for win five hundred.
Hopefully that creates a situation where he will come on
the show later in the week. Yes, a lot of
(10:00):
them speaking of that Tim Kates. It is Tim Kate's
week on Spectrum sportsnet LA. Expect not one, not two,
but three appearances for the one and only Tim Kates.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
These producer shows all cim baseball.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Because everybody. Now, we'll get into it without impunity in
the very next segment. But I think it's safe to
say Matt All Star Weekend was basically an indictment, a
flop of the NBA as a whole, and a lot
of the problems they've been having in the last I
don't know five years in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
We're trading Luca to the Lakers. Can't put lipstick on
that pig. Glaring glaring problems with this league. And everybody
in the NBA should be happy. Their new TV deal
is gonna kick in next year. They're gonna make all
kinds of money, but their product sucks. And that's what
the weekend look like. No Caitlin Clark, Chris Paul and
when Manyama disqualified from the skills content, but he says
(11:07):
the Spurs are the smartest team. That they didn't win
on athleticism, they didn't win by having the best talent
on paper. They won by using their brains. And that's
all Wemby and Chris Paul did to win the skills competition,
and they were like, no, you can't do that. Ahead,
We've made a mockery of what you've put together.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
The guy that wins the dunk contest isn't even a
real player, which is sim It's sad. And then Lebron
pulls out an hour before tip, once again making it
about Lebron and dominating the media cycle with negativity, and
nobody understands your format on how you're gonna win the
(11:45):
All Star Game or who should be in the All
Star Game.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
A first one to forty. I mean, it's it's a
game that everybody's played growing up. You played it. I
played it first one to forty guys, Yeah, I can.
That's what we would always pick pick up games. You
always went to forty.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
It's like butts up, of course. Yeah, we all understood.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I mean we're playing to forty by ones, twos and threes.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Count Who are the marketing geniuses behind this other than
the great Nosferatu. Adam Silver, who everybody was talking about
five years ago, is the greatest commission of all time.
In the last five years, he has bombed out and
Manfred's doing better. Imagine that Manfred is doing better than
this guy.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
How about Gary Bettman with four nations. Who would have
ever thought the commissioner of the NHL, who routinely wears
sensitive sweaters and is hated by his fan base more
than almost any other professional league. Former Petrosen money Show guests,
and we've really showered him with praise when he showed up.
He is more beloved right now than Adam Silver. Now
there was one positive, the white guy from the G
(12:48):
League jumping over the car.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
No again, it was Jello Ball. Wait, wait, don't we
have Lonzo Ball? His brother's intro of him.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
Some dominate the court by attacking the real I'll just
dominate the stage by commanding the mic.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
But in my family we do both.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
He's blowing up the charts and he's just getting started.
Give it up for my brother.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Hello, here we go. He's walking out, Sup, Give you
got the answer?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Yeah? Not the jap awakings backwards.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
I'm in that corner.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
Hold on tight, because that tweet be.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Teddy held the sword Rode.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
If you want of the.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Tweet, get up with me and I'm gonna show you
like the money in my buckets.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
They have the combos upout. This went better than everything
else they did. And that's saying something considering.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
How the way whoa, I ain't from the South, but
kick it within my Memphis were I can't take the loss.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I'm always going for the wind. If you're gonna lip
sync lip sync? Right, No, he said, I you're gonna
rap rap, but if you're gonna put the track of
your vocals underneath your vocals, and what are we doing?
Hater central this guy? That's right.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
I like what he said. He said, I ain't from
the South, but I can't win my Memphis tel.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Did you like when he said it or when the
track underneath him said it? I don't know what you're
talking about. Shout out to LeVar. I was his emotional
buchet me, so make it for the where's that? Yoko
(14:46):
read for go and so.
Speaker 7 (14:51):
On?
Speaker 8 (14:53):
He said?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Is just still going?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Unfortunately, are people no got of the ninety second? When
is the guy on the PA chastise the crowd for
not cheering enough? Come on, everybody, don't you recognize what
you're seeing out of here? Get on your feet, makes
some noise?
Speaker 7 (15:14):
Yeah, yeah, by are you?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
That's how we slave man, let's hear it Portillo, so
that you don't have to do that. When it's a
good performance, people just make the noise and they clap.
You don't have to say, let's hear it for Jello.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Man, let's hear it Portillo.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
You come on the PA and you say, fans, let's
hear it for the San Francisco State Alpha Fi Flag Company. Well,
you know that's what you get on the PA for.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
But let's hear it port Sillo.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
It's interesting that you mentioned San Francisco, and that's where
they were. In San Francisco. Around the turn of the century,
they started doing things called a clack, which is a
group of people off the street that you pay to
come in and applaud and act super geekd at a theater. Today,
other people feel like they needed the clack.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
It's it's a guy who just got a thirteen million
dollar check from a record company. You heard what Lonzo
Ball said. Apparently his track is streaking up the charts.
You don't need the.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
People, Alonzo said. Some men dominate on the court, right
the others on the mic.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
Dominate the court by attacking the rim. And my family
does dominate the stage by commanding the mind. We do both,
but in my family, we do both. He's blowing up
the starts and he's just getting started. Give it up
for my brother Joe.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Oh well, at least there was one true statement in there,
and that is that Lonzo Ball is such a piss
poor shooter. Oh, come on, that he has to attack
the rim.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
What's wrong with attacking the rest?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Shot over the he has no shot magic. We're all
when you drafted him number two overall, I had a
d him into Aaron Fox. You should have thought about, Hey,
this guy's got a really weird hitching his shot and
it takes him about a day to get it off.
Is that gonna be a problem.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
It's okay the court by attacking the rail, Matt, it's
okay the stage. By commanding the mic.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
They're gonna get rid of the three and fouls and
that's gonna save the NBA.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
And here comes my brother. You can't command to mic
if you're not the only vocal this being you. Wow,
Look I didn't know it was gonna be this. I
try to say. This is positive. We do both.
Speaker 5 (17:25):
He's blowing up the starts and he's just getting started.
Is he give it up with my brother. Seems like
it's already over.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I'm not saying what I want to know. Seems like
people are already over Tweaker.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Wait a minute, politics, I don't even en me record.
Media keep you less fit when you sit.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I might swerve and not calling the sentence, but the
track did.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's hard to breathe out there. I catch my breath.
You don't know what it's like. They got it this track.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Gonna need me because I'm gonna get my breath right now,
gonna get my breath.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Lesten, guys, let's hear it for Chillo. Listen, guys, just stop, okay?
Can we stop the show before us got in a
big fight over this, over Jello, over the hall, possibly
over the All Star Game? And all I'm saying is, yes,
the All Star Game was terrible. The All Star weekend
was in a microcosmon everything that's wrong with the NBA,
(18:21):
but the one positive. I tried to spin toward the
young man from Gino Hills and I was shot down
like a Chinese spy balloon in a blaze of glory.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Let's hear it for Chillo again. If you need the
PA announcer to tell it NBA All Star Weekend event
to applaud for your performance of a hip hop track. Listen,
we got problem.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
I'm not trying to talk myself up, but I have
some experience at the PA, and I wouldn't know. You know,
the dance force gets finished and people know they're finished
and they're applauding. But it helps to say, like Trojan
dance force, right, you know, because you want to make
sure the Trojan dance force.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
That people would normally be like, yeah, whatever, that passed
the time, all right, Trojan dancement.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
I got in a little bit of a tiff because
the dance force. You know, I like the dance force,
and but there was also the song girls, and the
song girls thought that I wasn't as enthusiastic.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I think that's a fair I think that's a fair
accusa I'd be like Trojan song girls. And you know
why you always held it against them.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Because they weren't. They weren't as enthusiastic in their performance.
The dance force was out there.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Doesn't go back to your relationship with the song girls
when you were a student at USC. No sure about
that because those girls of that generation song now didn't
do that to you. I spent a decade. You shouldn't
have to pay the debts of song girls prior.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
I spent a decade watching those angular stiff white there
you do nothing, and then the dance Hoorce would come
out there and really do something to DMX, Yeah, I'm
gonna say Trojan dance force.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
You know, man, let's hear it for him if you
don't have to do that. Jello, he supposedly has the
hottest track in hip hop going. They're supposed to freak
out that they were blessed to see him perform, But
then he waddled out and started talking over a track.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
It didn't feel like the Beatles at Chase Stadium. I
gotta say, you're right.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Hold on.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Maybe I was wrong to say this is a positive.
Speaker 7 (20:17):
I couldn't think the.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Man trying to be positive ate them a second off breath. Well,
there he is coming in with the people. I'm a
little nervous about my performance. Don't worry.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
You just have to hit the whole part.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I know, but I can't breath.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
I can't breathe.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Let's hear it for Chillo.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, let's hear it for Chello.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Let's hear it for chill.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
It had to be a humiliating moment for not as
humiliating as getting arrested in China for stealing high end sunglasses,
but still humiliate. How much shame does Jello have? I
guess really is a shame, but it's trying to keep
it going. Okay, So let's then recap. Caitlin Clark says.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
No, right, ayan esk who says no.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
The G League guy wins the dunk competition again.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
It's an annual mac McClung and annual come watch this
little guy run around. Nobody understands the format, right, there's
twenty minute breaks between each game where Kevin Hard is
like running a comedy show and there's a tribute to
TNT and it's very confusing.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Lebron pulls out and one, uh no, one can get
over the negativity of that because he's such an absolute
psychopath narcissist at this.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Bright, I'm not gonna play. What but you've been here
all weekend? Yeah, I gotta play.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Can you at least put on your uniform to take
a picture with these guys so you don't look like
you're in street clothes and they're your kids?
Speaker 7 (21:51):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Well, all right, then scale of one to ten, your
thoughts of the format.
Speaker 8 (21:59):
Ten being the best, Yes A zero sucks take same basketball.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Now they're paying Draymond Green to talk it up.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Did he know that?
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Did somebody tell him like, hey, we want to be positive,
like because you remember, was last year the first playing tournament?
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yes? Uh, two years ago? I think right. Last year
was the first in season tournament, the one the Lakers won,
right that Karen bass right absolutely lost.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
So last year was the very first one tournament. Yeah,
And we tried to get all the NBA people to
say mean things about it, and they all defended it.
And that was because they got a call from Transylvania
that said, blah, you better be.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Good, blah blah, I'm giving you a million bucks apiece
for this.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Right, But it doesn't seem like Draymond Green got that
call before they put a mic on him and put
him on the actual All Star.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
DAP being the best, Yes A zero ss same basketball.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
The best part is the guy saying yes, Like, on
a scale of one to ten, Jerraymond ten being the best, zero,
scale of one to ten, your thoughts of the fore men, ten.
Speaker 8 (23:05):
Being the best, Yes A zero sucks, Same basketball.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Ten being the best, Yes, ten being the best? Yes, Zo, yes, yes, yes,
Very Ed McMahon like, yes, yes, A zero, Oh god.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
A zero ten s eight? This sucks seven six Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Geek. He's like, I'm gonna get a ten from Draymon
ten being the best? Yes, A zero sucks?
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Same basketball, Lonzo, How you doing?
Speaker 2 (23:42):
I can't play anymore? So what are you doing? I
just there introduced my brother very awkwardly. I had to
fly to San Francisco from Chicago, where I haven't had
a knee. I don't know if you've heard for the
last three years.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
Dominate the court by attacking the rim. I just dominate
the stage by commanding the mic.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
But in my family, we do both.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
He's blowing up the starts and he's just getting started.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Give it up with my brother, Jello. I gave Save
Ferris at Hollywood Park a better introduction than that. They
deserve it.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
They deserve it.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
They deserved it better at Trill Save Faris deserved it.
At least they came out there and say, I'm freaking
sound they did. Somebody said that Jello sounds like a
singing branded with me.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
It's truly one of the worst performances I've ever heard.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Well, the one thing is we're so used to being
nailed by the King that it's crazy that you get
nailed by him even when he pulls out. Ye get it,
You got MYO. We'll be right back with the flip
top story of the day.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Being the best.
Speaker 8 (24:53):
Yes, a zero saying basketball.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
That's a real strike three of analysis from a guy
that you hired to pump up the events.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
And is hired by TNT commentator. God sucks.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
The only thing worse is he could have been the
city sucks. All the homeless around here.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
You play here, Draymond, they pay, you're selling. Yeah, I
don't care any more. This isn't a city. This is
a cesspool. The NBA has lost control of their product.
I think it's clear to see. Indeed, expect it to
be a theme. I lie it, guys, thread it through
the whole show. Expect it to be a theme.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah, we'll talk about it, but not next.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
You can't hold that against Lebron. I can't really an
hour before tip Really, I can't. Seems like I can.
Seems like TNT can. It feels like just an egregious error.
You mean, like the Lebron thing, All Star Weekend or
the NBA as a whole right now or Jill o
(26:03):
Well said that show some money AM five seventy LA
Sports and I'm a Horse Monday, going till seven pm.
David Vassy will join us in the five o'clock hour,
give you a preview of what we got between seven
and eight pm on Spring Training Dodger Talk, the first
(26:25):
installment from camel Back Ranch. Mark Medena will join us
next hour.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
All right, Matt, We talked a little bit about the
All Star Game. Not very high reviews for All Star
Weekend from the Petros and Money show.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
We're not as balanced as a show before us. They
were able to find no common ground, a happy medium.
Maybe they planted their flag on each I love All
Star Weekend Island, and the All Star Game sucks and
has sucked for a while.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
I think what Fred said to flame up Rodney, which
isn't hard these days, flame on Georch. I think what
Fred said this time was something like the NL the
NHL guys wanted it more than the All Star Game,
which I think.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Is pretty clear. Well, it's US versus Canada, Yeah, and
they're playing it.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
They're playing freebird exactly whenever you start playing Freebird and
like you start putting on social media the guitar solo
from Freebird while the Kachuck Brothers are soccing dudes and
checking them all over the place, and then you start
showing like fireworks and Tom Cruise flatting off airplane. Yeah,
that's a lot better than the NBA All Star Game.
I don't care if Jello Ball sings both as songs. Hell,
(27:34):
he's sang his only song, but he's sang it twice. Yeah,
once in the studio, once live, both at the same time.
So we will have an all Star talk throughout the
top story of the day. At five o'clock, we'll talk
to Mark Medina about Lebron being the worst person they
ever lived. That could have been Norman Powell's spot.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
He was there exactly right, and then he gets a
bonus exactly right. Who do you think you are? A bum?
A lousy entitled bums.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Super Chinese Stefan Marburry's right about you, Lebron. Where's your
mid range?
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Just to tag god Leeve and stay home for the weekend,
would you?
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, don't try to deflect and go after Gottlieb Lebron.
That's not gonna get you very far.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, University of Wisconsin Green Bay while warranted at two
and twenty four some incoming and they won last night
right on time.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Take that, Lebron God, leave's got to lay on right now,
right on time, feeling great. So we'll give him another year, right, Well,
you know, I don't know. What he's doing is a
little un conventional. And a lot of people said, well,
maybe you shouldn't do a radio show.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
It's like a full time job. What's the record again,
I he's got two wins, oh three? Well, you know what,
we'll talk about it.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
That's a response. That's how we respond. We lose twenty four,
we rise up.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
All right?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Did I say FlipTop starting?
Speaker 2 (28:56):
I'll clip you out, I will look you out.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
This is the flip top story of the day. As
college sports further mutates into the gross toxic avenger it
has become.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
It really is disgusting.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
In the nil TV network era, college sports has truly mutated.
And that's not like we were living in a perfect world.
But damn this sucks. Anyway, there's a new and interesting seaesus.
This is happening, Matt. You spent the weekend in the
SEC sure did a couple days back in the SEC
(29:32):
Texas A and M Baseball, of all things, which is popular.
SEC baseball is popular, and they're popular in those areas. Tennessee,
I believe one of all last.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Year, Stadium at Alabama was packed yesterday Saturday when I
went to the basket. It's a big draw.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
The SEC in Texas A and M Baseball tried to
say or changed their media policy and they put it
in their website, acting like a little bitch, saying no
one from the team would be available to talk to
the media after losses.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
The baseball team.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Just a weird note on the Texas A and M website,
players will not be available following a loss. Now A
and M is ranked number one right now, hence probably
the crowd. But people were really pissed about this. Media people, sure,
they got to write their story. They rose up and
they were angry, and A and M got a lot
(30:30):
of pushback on this. Now, why does it matter for
those of you listening to great sports talk, Well, it
is kind of interesting and funny that we are truly
in the protect the player's mode or era more than
we ever have been, which is kind of interesting because
now they're finally all getting paid. Yeah, professionals, like they're
(30:52):
finally getting paid. Now it is more convoluted than that,
and I realize that. You know, we all just want
to say, now you're getting paid like a pro, and
we all say that, but the school does not pay them, right,
They're paid by some idiot donation nil collective, which is
the exact same illegal stuff that was always going on
in places where blue blood athletes compete, like College Station
(31:15):
copy that. But either way, now that they're getting paid,
we're not going to hold these guys accountable or just
have them speak after a loss. Now they are already control
who you can talk to. But for the media purposes,
you're supposed to be able to talk to somebody. But
now that the guys are getting paid, we have to
(31:36):
coddle them even more, especially Texas athletes matt As. You know,
any athlete at places like A and M or Texas
even Texas Tech, they get their balls lathered up pretty good.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Anyway, Texan charm.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
There was enough pushback to where A and M removed
the sentence and we will see what happens. They don't
lose very much. Since I don't know what you're talking
about this is locally relevant since Lincoln Riley, if you remember,
in an unprecedented move the first time I've ever heard
of it in college football, especially at USC, for God's sakes,
(32:15):
allowed Caleb Williams to duck out of an interview, which
meant the whole team had to duck out of interviews
if you weren't going to have the Heisman winner out there,
and it would happened a couple times after losses at USC,
and that certainly did not go over well. When the
best player in the sport, who's getting paid more than
(32:36):
the coach at Fresno State, getting paid more than some
head coaches, is allowed to duck out after a loss.
That much like not being able to drink a tall
Boy in your car.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
That's not cool.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
It seems kind of communist to me. Now. The dictation
of access to media debate has always existed. People say, well,
why should you, what's your what is your right to
talk to these guys? And you know that's been going
on for a long time. I remember a long time
ago Carson Palmer, one of his older brothers, tried to
(33:11):
stop him from talking to the media after a loss
at USC, and at this point. I was already working
in the media, but I, you know, of course played
with Carson. I knew his brother and knew the situation
and all that. And I saw the brother who like
wore this big, stupid lifeguard hat everywhere he went, tried
to stop Carson from talking, and to be fair, Tim
(33:32):
Teslone at the time said, you can't do that.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Get out of here. And because that was a guy
that had an old school mentality, like this guy's a
high end quarterbacks. We just lost. He's got to answer
the questions. Now, my view is, if you're old enough
to take money and go out and perform, you can
learn to answer questions when it's easy and when it's hard.
(33:58):
I mean, that's part of growing up. It's part of
being a person that has a lot of responsibility as
a high level athlete.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Like reason they call it the college experience.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
You have to learn to answer these questions. You think
it's easy, It's not like I've had to do it
many times five, six, seven, eight times as the captain
of the team and we sucked, you know, and you
have to go up there and you don't want to
throw the coaches under the bus. You don't want to say, hey,
the fullback went the wrong way, that's why the guy came.
You know you. But you learn to have a kind
(34:30):
of balance and answer those questions. And it's part of
being a person. It's part of growing as an athlete.
And I think it's sad that people are starting to
consider doing this more and more. We had an issue.
I mean, the guy that reported on it was kind
of a it's that Wolcan guy, but it wasn't just him,
but they had issues in the Notre Dame locker room
(34:52):
after Notre Dame lost to Ohio State at the end
of the year, after Texas loss, they're one of their
safeties was in the tunnel throwing like a what you
would call like a temperature film, and somebody had a
camera on it because there's media everywhere, and some Texas
guy that works there who was also holding a camera
was like, well, don't you shoot that?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Did you shoot somebody?
Speaker 3 (35:15):
In the worst moment, It's like, guys, this is how
we look. You want to be a pro athlete. You
want to be in the arena, this is the arena.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
And get a podcast. Yeah, you want to have.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
A podcast where we bring on other athletes and talk
about it. Yeah, talk about the new Cardi B song
like this, this is the arena And to try to
shelter kids from it, it's only makes it worse and dumber. Anyway,
shame on you A and M A ANDM more like
aggressive and misguided.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Yeah, am I right? I get it.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
And in related news, the guy that got Lincoln Riley's
panties all in a bunch in twenty twenty three, do
you remember his name? The local beat rider, A young
kid hell Daily News Luca Evans. Was he Times or
Daily News, Daily News? OC Register Register? Yeah? So yeah,
the daily news group Luca Evans who pissed off Lincoln Riley.
Lincoln Riley said it was because he asked the guy
(36:13):
question what he shouldn't That's not why it was.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It was about Releak Brown transfer.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Yeah, he said something about releak transferring, and Lincoln's like,
how could you know that? Well, two weeks later the
guy transferred and he's still at Arizon a reporter. He's
still at Arizona State. That guy that Lincoln Riley tried
to suspend and embarrassed himself nationally in the college football world.
Remember that story, Luca Evans announced today that he's leaving town.
(36:38):
Took the Denver Broncos beat great great gig gre So.
Congratulations to Luca Evans, uh, a young local media guy
who had Lincoln Riley flustered like a like a woman
at the opera catching the vapors at the turn of
the last century, holding those binoculars on a stick.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
That's all.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
That's how Luca had Lincoln acting. Now he gets to
do it with Sean Payton, I would say, Sean Payton,
who also likes to control the narrative, probably as annoying
and as bitchy as Lincoln Riley, but he knows how
to play the game.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
More accomplished, Yes, yeah too, more accomplished. Yes.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
Congratulations to everybody involved, except for.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
You A and M. You weenies. Why'd you strike you
out there? Lay me alone? Let him get his ninety
thousand dollars, dodge ram truck and drive back to the door.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
How come that guy hit a home run off you
with this composite bat that dropped into the gulf. I
don't want lay may be I have a tea, sip
t SIPs. How was your weekend coming up there? Thanks

in Vegas. From C to Terminal B.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Always pleasant. Yeah, catch a whiff a cigarette smoke while
you're sprinting two separate cigarette spots. I had to sprint by.
It had to be close to I would guess three
quarters of a mile between where I was and where
I had to go and what shat my ass? I
got yelled at by the old ass passengers in the
first row. Why are you in such a hurry? Why
are you up and move? Because I have a connection
to make and your old handicapped ass taking an extra
(39:14):
twenty minutes to get on the plane is why we
missed our slot. Didn't they do the cool thing where
they say like, hey, people got a connection, get up,
get out.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
They did let them out, and then the people were like, well,
why are they getting to the people that had There

He's like he's armless, He's just a pain in the ass.
I was like, all right, Tommy, I'll give you a right,
I'll look at you. I gave Tommy about the show,
but he did have a lanyard on with a picture
of him and Nick Saban in it hanging around his neck.
I took this on a day. I gave Tommy a
(40:27):
ride home Saturday. Uh drove out to Tuscal Loose and
all heroes were capes. Matt no. I gave him a
five block ride to his apartment. He asked me for coke.
I said, excuse me? He said, Coca cola. Could you

good job. It didn't sound like you wanted again.
Speaker 6 (41:31):
No, we took all six callers that were there, so
I appreciate all of them. Went to the Broken Compass
Tiki Bar here in Burbank for some drinks until they
closed at eleven, and then we decided on Saturday just
to kind of hang out around the house. I had
a girls basketball game that I went to with Sadie.
She wanted to watch Burroughs take on Village Christian and
girls' basketball playoff game.
Speaker 3 (41:50):
That they competed harder than the Barkley's Ogs or whatever.
Speaker 2 (41:53):
That it was cool.

Jello performed at halftime.

Ronnie had a nice weekend as well. On Friday, after
the show, my wife and I went to Moschelle Mass
and Burdbank for a nice Valentine's dinner. It wasn't crowded
at all, so we didn't have to wait for a table,
sat down and we had a great time. Had a
couple of marks as well. Not blended.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Now that's good. You know you learned your list.
Speaker 9 (42:57):
Yes, indeed, Saturday afternoon we gathered for my sister in
law's birthday, Happy Birthday Diana at a Mediterranean restaurant in
Crito's called Panini Kabab Grill, right across from the Sorito's Mall.
Saturday night, we relaxed at home watch the SNL fiftieth
Anniversary the musical portion where they showed all the performances
(43:18):
and sort of like behind the scenes commentary from cast
members and artists. That was pretty interesting. And Sunday stayed
home doing domestic chores around the house. And I did
not watch one second of the NBA All Start.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Oh but you know I did watch.
Speaker 9 (43:33):
I did watch the SNL fiftieth anniversary show though it
was all right, and that was that was my weekend.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
The music portion was better.
Speaker 3 (43:41):
On Saturday, we got Fred Armison double duty on the
really good Fred Armisen playing with A B fifty twos

On Friday night, Uh, real estate Dad Mike Grandis and
his wife came by for a drink and then they left.
(44:11):
On Saturday, of course, I went to yoga and then
I took my wife and daughter to lunch. My wife
in Redondo Beach. We went to a restaurant called the Rockefeller,
where I enjoyed not it's not and I enjoyed not one,
but two red sant grias. Because that's the kind of
(44:32):
party guy that I am.
Speaker 2 (44:33):
I mean, if it's not a white sangree, I'm not.
I don't like.
Speaker 3 (44:36):
But that's what I say. I say the Rockefeller matt
only used to serve a white sangree. And I said
to my wife, where's the red sangria? I mean, it's
all it's terrible that I'm ordering a sangree in the
first place. Could I get it red? And then I
took them shopping a little bit shopping and bopping.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (44:56):
My brother Dimitri and his uh women came over. Wife Courtney,
daughter Yoko and other daughter Sachiko came by Asians and Uh,
it was wonderful. I don't like it when they complain
about their kids because they're like.
Speaker 2 (45:17):
You feel like it's competition.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
She's like no, she's just like you know, look at her.
She's upset, and I'm like, those kids just did what
you said, Like you told her not to touch that,
and she hasn't touched it.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
My kid would have set it on fire an hour
ago and then throw it. Stop it. I don't want
to hear you can play anyway.
Speaker 7 (45:36):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (45:36):
Yesterday I got a haircut. My annual head shaving, which
I do once a year. Was shaving. Yeah, shaved, I.
Speaker 2 (45:44):
Just tucked underneath the pink struck. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:47):
There's a bald guy at my barber and last time
I went in there to get my head shaved, he said,
I won't do it. You have hair, I won't do it.
And today I came back. I said, I don't care
what you think. Shave my head. It's my cleansing. So
he shaved my head and then I ate a taco
alone at a cost. Apply eat you. I hate my
(46:09):
taco solitude. It's very peaceful. Sure that was it?
Speaker 2 (46:16):
All right?
Speaker 3 (46:19):
And here we are weekend should still be going instead

But the man's dying. I mean, could you get a
bigger could we He's getting maybe a second pillow shot
the head. He's got the smallest pillow in the world.
Speaker 2 (47:11):
Might still be alive today. Think that modern medicine wheel.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
My pillow save his head. Yes, we'll be right, can

iHeartRadio app. A full four hour Petros and Money Show
delivered today, Tomorrow, Wednesday and Friday. It is a full
week of great sports talk and it begins here on
(01:09):
this I'm a horse Monday, and we are galloping horse.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
I'm a hood shaped like middle aged white men. We
are headed toward seven o'clock with Dodger talk. Yes, Yes,
and we will gallop forward and put together a holiday show.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Now, generally there is some malice.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
From our show regarding working especially on President's Day, because
nobody loves Lincoln and Washington more than the Petroso money show.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
We take pride in the plethora of information we regularly
provide about President.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
We love the old rail spinner. We do abe Lincoln,
and it is not cool, not cool. And Matt has
usually been the flag carrier, so to speak. He has
carried our colors when it comes to complaining about our
union working on a federal holiday, making us work this
sacrisanct federal holiday.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And we've been we've been worn down by time. I
thought we had this one off. Well, this was our
union had.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Tam is our representative of the union, and let's be honest,
he's very poor.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
He's a poor well, he's poor rap. He's good at
delivering misinformation. Well, he's good at getting kfile riled up
like a year in advance, like hey, you guys are
all gonna get fired, and then you know what it happened.
He was like John the Baptist.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
There.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
The Union would send us almost daily.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Of bad news.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
You guys are gonna get fired.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
No, we're not what's that? What's that galloping? I hear
from a from beyond Tim Kate's coming down and tell
me I'm gonna get fired. Hey, at least you got
that golden mic though at the ceremony, right, that's worth whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
We had our boss bring us one and deliver it. Personally,
it's pretty freaking awesome. We would get maybe what am I? Am?
I right in saying this case? Thrice weekly updates from
our our union representative sounds right?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, And it's this real skill talk. This is holiday schedule, yes,
and Kates informed us that we would We used to.
We have always been on a different holiday schedule than
the iHeart employees because we're represented by the sag After union.
We are in a different union, and our boss would die,
which I explained to the girls in the coffee today,
and they could care less, could not have cared less.
(03:18):
I was sitting there at the coffee place in tarts,
what are.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
You doing today?
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Petros? You got what are you doing with your holiday?
It's like, I gotta work. I'm in a different union.
For the rest of the building, they were like, okay,
the only the coffee. Why are you guys playing Jazma
tast You guys don't know about Guru and Donald Byrd.
Why are you playing this? This album came out before
you were born. Very awkward.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's just on a restaurant channel. Have to play to pay?
You don't have to pay.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
We got any of the rest of the buildings out here.
They're like, God, this guy just get your coffee at
leave please? Can we just can he not get into
Pete's sooner than later? Can he get over the coffee
being already.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
The thing that upside?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
I don't go to the coffee bean anymore, Matt, Corrections
and retractions.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Where are you going now? Corrections?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
I stopped going to the bean and leaf after they
fired our morbidly obese guy. So I Big John, Yeah,
Big Day, you know, the old Big d These guys
don't even remember me.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You know when you hear Big John? What's your first image?
Your mind's eye? What does it see that guy? Can
I go? Can I go?
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Him busting out of a little Dodger jersey, just busting
out of it.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
You're right about bus a bus back from a spring
training game and just sleeping.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Oh okay, okay, well well that's Matts can relate with that.
I see him standing in front of him at.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Weighs four hundred pounds less than the guy, and he
passes out all the time.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
The Dodger jersey is open, and he's got two of
those twenty four ounce god lights. He's double fist in
the twenty four ounce blood lights.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Well, that guy used to be the CEO of Coffee,
Bean and Tea. So now you go where I go
to an artisanal coffee place owned by a guy I know,
a local businessman by the No. No, Every once in
a while they buy my coffee because I'm a good customer,
and they say that one's on me. But it's called
Offset coffee. And there are maybe about five of them
(05:18):
in the South Bay and they're all excellent. There's actually
owned Offset. No, DJ Offset does not exist. There's a
rapper named Offset who was married to Cardi b. They're
going through a nasty divorce yes later yes, bastards, well
bastard and then married. Maybe one of them is legit.
Sure that's neither here nor there. No, he was called
(05:39):
it was callterial to this conversation totally. It was called
Offset coffee. You're familiar with fannies and that make the
famous breakfast burrito, same owner and the big Chinese guy
from Fannies took over his parents place, served only breakfast burritos,
started serving stump Town coffee, which is very famous, yes,
(05:59):
and then started making his own coffee, became a real
coffee head. The reason this is relevant to this conversation
is because there is an offset coffee right by the
chargers Commons on pay and it is. It is excellent,
right by the pizza place. I will hit it up.
You will love the offset coffee.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Anyway. The point is. The point is Union holiday Union holiday.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Not for us.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
We hated it most, not because we had to work
on the holiday, but because if we ever wanted to
take a vacation day because we had something with the
family or whatever, the boss would say, well, now, just
so you know, it's not a union holiday, so I
ought to have to make you take a vacation day.
But I'm gonna look the other way on this one.
I don't want to hear that. I'm gonna look the
other way every day we're here. Every day, you know,
(06:42):
he's telling I'm gonna give you the day off because
I'm gonna look the other way. Okay, all right, appreciate it, boss,
and it came to.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
A certain point. I believe we both feel the same way.
I'm just gonna work that we would just rather work
and complain about working, then actually take the day off
and try to have a meaningful day with the family,
like ninety percent of the rest of the world is doing.
Except there's terrible traffic today.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
For the worst traffic I have had on my way
to work now on the way home.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Got to go full ten minute on Bootsman before we
start the show. I'm happy to be here today. There's
a lot to get into it. I'm thrilled to the show.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Before us put up, I guess at defense, we must
combat the defense with a counter argument. And listen, what
is the advantage we have closing statement? We get the
closing statement, so it works for us on that front.
So we figure, Okay, if they're in today, they present
their case. We're going to present a defense and a
closing argument. We're happy to be here today.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Well let's get it. Let's get it started like the
Black Eyed Peas from East LA. And we'll say this
first little scheduled talk today. David Vasse will join us
in the five o'clock hour Live first ever report for
the twenty twenty five season at Camelback Ranch. The most
(08:00):
anticipated Dodger Spring training ever is at least when they
have as long as they've been in Camelback. Last year
was big with Otani. This year's bigger, not even close.
And uh, we'll also have Mark Medina on. Hopefully he'll
help us excoriate the NBA. I'm tired of putting on
these riders and you're like, hey, that sucked, right, They're like, actually,
(08:21):
I really like what Clutch is doing. It's like, F you, buddy,
you're out. F you, you shill, You're out. Buha, Until
the next time. The chips have to be down though.
He went so he went clutch so hard it was
like he was clutching his boots while he was on
the phone with us.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Well, what happens is if you defend clutch and you
support the clutch platform, they give you a clutch. And
he has got a beautiful, bright red clutch that you
would die for, like a purse, glorious, like a manual transmission,
but like a purse a clutch.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Well, that's what we have going on there. And then
schedule wise, as far as the week goes. We have
full shows most of the week because of the All
Star Game. We got a lot going on. Matt, we
do It's a historic weekend.
Speaker 7 (09:07):
Moore.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Our shows every day, but Thursday Thursday, Petro send money
the meat of the Sandwich, Dodger Spring training baseball at noon,
Clippers basketball pre game at four, tip off at five
against the Bucks, and the honorable Jannis Authentica Wompo, who
was the only man at All Star Weekend that said
what these players are doing is wrong. But he didn't
say it in so many words. He said, this is
(09:28):
the way I do it. This is the way I
respect the game, and I respect the fans, and I
respect my lot in life. It is up to them.
They are grown man. I can tell them what to do,
but this is what I do. Well.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
We're not finished with schedule talk No tomorrow, UCLA Minnesota
tip off at seven thirty thirty. That's not gonna stop
us doing our whole show. But it will happen. Okay,
sucking down in nine mc crownin going for win five hundred.
Hopefully that creates a situation where he will come on
the show later in the week. Yes, a lot of
(10:00):
them speaking of that Tim Kates. It is Tim Kate's
week on Spectrum sportsnet LA. Expect not one, not two,
but three appearances for the one and only Tim Kates.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
These producer shows all cim baseball.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Because everybody. Now, we'll get into it without impunity in
the very next segment. But I think it's safe to
say Matt All Star Weekend was basically an indictment, a
flop of the NBA as a whole, and a lot
of the problems they've been having in the last I
don't know five years in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
We're trading Luca to the Lakers. Can't put lipstick on
that pig. Glaring glaring problems with this league. And everybody
in the NBA should be happy. Their new TV deal
is gonna kick in next year. They're gonna make all
kinds of money, but their product sucks. And that's what
the weekend look like. No Caitlin Clark, Chris Paul and
when Manyama disqualified from the skills content, but he says
(11:07):
the Spurs are the smartest team. That they didn't win
on athleticism, they didn't win by having the best talent
on paper. They won by using their brains. And that's
all Wemby and Chris Paul did to win the skills competition,
and they were like, no, you can't do that. Ahead,
We've made a mockery of what you've put together.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
The guy that wins the dunk contest isn't even a
real player, which is sim It's sad. And then Lebron
pulls out an hour before tip, once again making it
about Lebron and dominating the media cycle with negativity, and
nobody understands your format on how you're gonna win the
(11:45):
All Star Game or who should be in the All
Star Game.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
A first one to forty. I mean, it's it's a
game that everybody's played growing up. You played it. I
played it first one to forty guys, Yeah, I can.
That's what we would always pick pick up games. You
always went to forty.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
It's like butts up, of course. Yeah, we all understood.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I mean we're playing to forty by ones, twos and threes.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Count Who are the marketing geniuses behind this other than
the great Nosferatu. Adam Silver, who everybody was talking about
five years ago, is the greatest commission of all time.
In the last five years, he has bombed out and
Manfred's doing better. Imagine that Manfred is doing better than
this guy.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
How about Gary Bettman with four nations. Who would have
ever thought the commissioner of the NHL, who routinely wears
sensitive sweaters and is hated by his fan base more
than almost any other professional league. Former Petrosen money Show guests,
and we've really showered him with praise when he showed up.
He is more beloved right now than Adam Silver. Now
there was one positive, the white guy from the G
(12:48):
League jumping over the car.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
No again, it was Jello Ball. Wait, wait, don't we
have Lonzo Ball? His brother's intro of him.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
Some dominate the court by attacking the real I'll just
dominate the stage by commanding the mic.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
But in my family we do both.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
He's blowing up the charts and he's just getting started.
Give it up for my brother.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Hello, here we go. He's walking out, Sup, Give you
got the answer?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Yeah? Not the jap awakings backwards.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
I'm in that corner.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
Hold on tight, because that tweet be.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Teddy held the sword Rode.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
If you want of the.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Tweet, get up with me and I'm gonna show you
like the money in my buckets.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
They have the combos upout. This went better than everything
else they did. And that's saying something considering.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
How the way whoa, I ain't from the South, but
kick it within my Memphis were I can't take the loss.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I'm always going for the wind. If you're gonna lip
sync lip sync? Right, No, he said, I you're gonna
rap rap, but if you're gonna put the track of
your vocals underneath your vocals, and what are we doing?
Hater central this guy? That's right.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
I like what he said. He said, I ain't from
the South, but I can't win my Memphis tel.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Did you like when he said it or when the
track underneath him said it? I don't know what you're
talking about. Shout out to LeVar. I was his emotional
buchet me, so make it for the where's that? Yoko
(14:46):
read for go and so.
Speaker 7 (14:51):
On?
Speaker 8 (14:53):
He said?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Is just still going?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Unfortunately, are people no got of the ninety second? When
is the guy on the PA chastise the crowd for
not cheering enough? Come on, everybody, don't you recognize what
you're seeing out of here? Get on your feet, makes
some noise?
Speaker 7 (15:14):
Yeah, yeah, by are you?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
That's how we slave man, let's hear it Portillo, so
that you don't have to do that. When it's a
good performance, people just make the noise and they clap.
You don't have to say, let's hear it for Jello.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Man, let's hear it Portillo.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
You come on the PA and you say, fans, let's
hear it for the San Francisco State Alpha Fi Flag Company. Well,
you know that's what you get on the PA for.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
But let's hear it port Sillo.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
It's interesting that you mentioned San Francisco, and that's where
they were. In San Francisco. Around the turn of the century,
they started doing things called a clack, which is a
group of people off the street that you pay to
come in and applaud and act super geekd at a theater. Today,
other people feel like they needed the clack.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
It's it's a guy who just got a thirteen million
dollar check from a record company. You heard what Lonzo
Ball said. Apparently his track is streaking up the charts.
You don't need the.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
People, Alonzo said. Some men dominate on the court, right
the others on the mic.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
Dominate the court by attacking the rim. And my family
does dominate the stage by commanding the mind. We do both,
but in my family, we do both. He's blowing up
the starts and he's just getting started. Give it up
for my brother Joe.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Oh well, at least there was one true statement in there,
and that is that Lonzo Ball is such a piss
poor shooter. Oh, come on, that he has to attack
the rim.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
What's wrong with attacking the rest?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Shot over the he has no shot magic. We're all
when you drafted him number two overall, I had a
d him into Aaron Fox. You should have thought about, Hey,
this guy's got a really weird hitching his shot and
it takes him about a day to get it off.
Is that gonna be a problem.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
It's okay the court by attacking the rail, Matt, it's
okay the stage. By commanding the mic.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
They're gonna get rid of the three and fouls and
that's gonna save the NBA.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
And here comes my brother. You can't command to mic
if you're not the only vocal this being you. Wow,
Look I didn't know it was gonna be this. I
try to say. This is positive. We do both.
Speaker 5 (17:25):
He's blowing up the starts and he's just getting started.
Is he give it up with my brother. Seems like
it's already over.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I'm not saying what I want to know. Seems like
people are already over Tweaker.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Wait a minute, politics, I don't even en me record.
Media keep you less fit when you sit.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I might swerve and not calling the sentence, but the
track did.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's hard to breathe out there. I catch my breath.
You don't know what it's like. They got it this track.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Gonna need me because I'm gonna get my breath right now,
gonna get my breath.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Lesten, guys, let's hear it for Chillo. Listen, guys, just stop, okay?
Can we stop the show before us got in a
big fight over this, over Jello, over the hall, possibly
over the All Star Game? And all I'm saying is, yes,
the All Star Game was terrible. The All Star weekend
was in a microcosmon everything that's wrong with the NBA,
(18:21):
but the one positive. I tried to spin toward the
young man from Gino Hills and I was shot down
like a Chinese spy balloon in a blaze of glory.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Let's hear it for Chillo again. If you need the
PA announcer to tell it NBA All Star Weekend event
to applaud for your performance of a hip hop track. Listen,
we got problem.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
I'm not trying to talk myself up, but I have
some experience at the PA, and I wouldn't know. You know,
the dance force gets finished and people know they're finished
and they're applauding. But it helps to say, like Trojan
dance force, right, you know, because you want to make
sure the Trojan dance force.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
That people would normally be like, yeah, whatever, that passed
the time, all right, Trojan dancement.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
I got in a little bit of a tiff because
the dance force. You know, I like the dance force,
and but there was also the song girls, and the
song girls thought that I wasn't as enthusiastic.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I think that's a fair I think that's a fair
accusa I'd be like Trojan song girls. And you know
why you always held it against them.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Because they weren't. They weren't as enthusiastic in their performance.
The dance force was out there.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Doesn't go back to your relationship with the song girls
when you were a student at USC. No sure about
that because those girls of that generation song now didn't
do that to you. I spent a decade. You shouldn't
have to pay the debts of song girls prior.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
I spent a decade watching those angular stiff white there
you do nothing, and then the dance Hoorce would come
out there and really do something to DMX, Yeah, I'm
gonna say Trojan dance force.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
You know, man, let's hear it for him if you
don't have to do that. Jello, he supposedly has the
hottest track in hip hop going. They're supposed to freak
out that they were blessed to see him perform, But
then he waddled out and started talking over a track.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
It didn't feel like the Beatles at Chase Stadium. I
gotta say, you're right.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Hold on.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Maybe I was wrong to say this is a positive.
Speaker 7 (20:17):
I couldn't think the.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Man trying to be positive ate them a second off breath. Well,
there he is coming in with the people. I'm a
little nervous about my performance. Don't worry.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
You just have to hit the whole part.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I know, but I can't breath.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
I can't breathe.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Let's hear it for Chillo.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, let's hear it for Chello.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Let's hear it for chill.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
It had to be a humiliating moment for not as
humiliating as getting arrested in China for stealing high end sunglasses,
but still humiliate. How much shame does Jello have? I
guess really is a shame, but it's trying to keep
it going. Okay, So let's then recap. Caitlin Clark says.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
No, right, ayan esk who says no.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
The G League guy wins the dunk competition again.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
It's an annual mac McClung and annual come watch this
little guy run around. Nobody understands the format, right, there's
twenty minute breaks between each game where Kevin Hard is
like running a comedy show and there's a tribute to
TNT and it's very confusing.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Lebron pulls out and one, uh no, one can get
over the negativity of that because he's such an absolute
psychopath narcissist at this.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Bright, I'm not gonna play. What but you've been here
all weekend? Yeah, I gotta play.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Can you at least put on your uniform to take
a picture with these guys so you don't look like
you're in street clothes and they're your kids?
Speaker 7 (21:51):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Well, all right, then scale of one to ten, your
thoughts of the format.
Speaker 8 (21:59):
Ten being the best, Yes A zero sucks take same basketball.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Now they're paying Draymond Green to talk it up.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Did he know that?
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Did somebody tell him like, hey, we want to be positive,
like because you remember, was last year the first playing tournament?
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yes? Uh, two years ago? I think right. Last year
was the first in season tournament, the one the Lakers won,
right that Karen bass right absolutely lost.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
So last year was the very first one tournament. Yeah,
And we tried to get all the NBA people to
say mean things about it, and they all defended it.
And that was because they got a call from Transylvania
that said, blah, you better be.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Good, blah blah, I'm giving you a million bucks apiece
for this.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Right, But it doesn't seem like Draymond Green got that
call before they put a mic on him and put
him on the actual All Star.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
DAP being the best, Yes A zero ss same basketball.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
The best part is the guy saying yes, Like, on
a scale of one to ten, Jerraymond ten being the best, zero,
scale of one to ten, your thoughts of the fore men, ten.
Speaker 8 (23:05):
Being the best, Yes A zero sucks, Same basketball.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Ten being the best, Yes, ten being the best? Yes, Zo, yes, yes, yes,
Very Ed McMahon like, yes, yes, A zero, Oh god.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
A zero ten s eight? This sucks seven six Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Geek. He's like, I'm gonna get a ten from Draymon
ten being the best? Yes, A zero sucks?
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Same basketball, Lonzo, How you doing?
Speaker 2 (23:42):
I can't play anymore? So what are you doing? I
just there introduced my brother very awkwardly. I had to
fly to San Francisco from Chicago, where I haven't had
a knee. I don't know if you've heard for the
last three years.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
Dominate the court by attacking the rim. I just dominate
the stage by commanding the mic.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
But in my family, we do both.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
He's blowing up the starts and he's just getting started.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Give it up with my brother, Jello. I gave Save
Ferris at Hollywood Park a better introduction than that. They
deserve it.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
They deserve it.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
They deserved it better at Trill Save Faris deserved it.
At least they came out there and say, I'm freaking
sound they did. Somebody said that Jello sounds like a
singing branded with me.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
It's truly one of the worst performances I've ever heard.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Well, the one thing is we're so used to being
nailed by the King that it's crazy that you get
nailed by him even when he pulls out. Ye get it,
You got MYO. We'll be right back with the flip
top story of the day.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Being the best.
Speaker 8 (24:53):
Yes, a zero saying basketball.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
That's a real strike three of analysis from a guy
that you hired to pump up the events.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
And is hired by TNT commentator. God sucks.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
The only thing worse is he could have been the
city sucks. All the homeless around here.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
You play here, Draymond, they pay, you're selling. Yeah, I
don't care any more. This isn't a city. This is
a cesspool. The NBA has lost control of their product.
I think it's clear to see. Indeed, expect it to
be a theme. I lie it, guys, thread it through
the whole show. Expect it to be a theme.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah, we'll talk about it, but not next.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
You can't hold that against Lebron. I can't really an
hour before tip Really, I can't. Seems like I can.
Seems like TNT can. It feels like just an egregious error.
You mean, like the Lebron thing, All Star Weekend or
the NBA as a whole right now or Jill o
(26:03):
Well said that show some money AM five seventy LA
Sports and I'm a Horse Monday, going till seven pm.
David Vassy will join us in the five o'clock hour,
give you a preview of what we got between seven
and eight pm on Spring Training Dodger Talk, the first
(26:25):
installment from camel Back Ranch. Mark Medena will join us
next hour.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
All right, Matt, We talked a little bit about the
All Star Game. Not very high reviews for All Star
Weekend from the Petros and Money show.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
We're not as balanced as a show before us. They
were able to find no common ground, a happy medium.
Maybe they planted their flag on each I love All
Star Weekend Island, and the All Star Game sucks and
has sucked for a while.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
I think what Fred said to flame up Rodney, which
isn't hard these days, flame on Georch. I think what
Fred said this time was something like the NL the
NHL guys wanted it more than the All Star Game,
which I think.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Is pretty clear. Well, it's US versus Canada, Yeah, and
they're playing it.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
They're playing freebird exactly whenever you start playing Freebird and
like you start putting on social media the guitar solo
from Freebird while the Kachuck Brothers are soccing dudes and
checking them all over the place, and then you start
showing like fireworks and Tom Cruise flatting off airplane. Yeah,
that's a lot better than the NBA All Star Game.
I don't care if Jello Ball sings both as songs. Hell,
(27:34):
he's sang his only song, but he's sang it twice. Yeah,
once in the studio, once live, both at the same time.
So we will have an all Star talk throughout the
top story of the day. At five o'clock, we'll talk
to Mark Medina about Lebron being the worst person they
ever lived. That could have been Norman Powell's spot.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
He was there exactly right, and then he gets a
bonus exactly right. Who do you think you are? A bum?
A lousy entitled bums.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Super Chinese Stefan Marburry's right about you, Lebron. Where's your
mid range?
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Just to tag god Leeve and stay home for the weekend,
would you?
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, don't try to deflect and go after Gottlieb Lebron.
That's not gonna get you very far.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, University of Wisconsin Green Bay while warranted at two
and twenty four some incoming and they won last night
right on time.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Take that, Lebron God, leave's got to lay on right now,
right on time, feeling great. So we'll give him another year, right, Well,
you know, I don't know. What he's doing is a
little un conventional. And a lot of people said, well,
maybe you shouldn't do a radio show.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
It's like a full time job. What's the record again,
I he's got two wins, oh three? Well, you know what,
we'll talk about it.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
That's a response. That's how we respond. We lose twenty four,
we rise up.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
All right?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Did I say FlipTop starting?
Speaker 2 (28:56):
I'll clip you out, I will look you out.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
This is the flip top story of the day. As
college sports further mutates into the gross toxic avenger it
has become.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
It really is disgusting.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
In the nil TV network era, college sports has truly mutated.
And that's not like we were living in a perfect world.
But damn this sucks. Anyway, there's a new and interesting seaesus.
This is happening, Matt. You spent the weekend in the
SEC sure did a couple days back in the SEC
(29:32):
Texas A and M Baseball, of all things, which is popular.
SEC baseball is popular, and they're popular in those areas. Tennessee,
I believe one of all last.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Year, Stadium at Alabama was packed yesterday Saturday when I
went to the basket. It's a big draw.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
The SEC in Texas A and M Baseball tried to
say or changed their media policy and they put it
in their website, acting like a little bitch, saying no
one from the team would be available to talk to
the media after losses.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
The baseball team.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Just a weird note on the Texas A and M website,
players will not be available following a loss. Now A
and M is ranked number one right now, hence probably
the crowd. But people were really pissed about this. Media people, sure,
they got to write their story. They rose up and
they were angry, and A and M got a lot
(30:30):
of pushback on this. Now, why does it matter for
those of you listening to great sports talk, Well, it
is kind of interesting and funny that we are truly
in the protect the player's mode or era more than
we ever have been, which is kind of interesting because
now they're finally all getting paid. Yeah, professionals, like they're
(30:52):
finally getting paid. Now it is more convoluted than that,
and I realize that. You know, we all just want
to say, now you're getting paid like a pro, and
we all say that, but the school does not pay them, right,
They're paid by some idiot donation nil collective, which is
the exact same illegal stuff that was always going on
in places where blue blood athletes compete, like College Station
(31:15):
copy that. But either way, now that they're getting paid,
we're not going to hold these guys accountable or just
have them speak after a loss. Now they are already control
who you can talk to. But for the media purposes,
you're supposed to be able to talk to somebody. But
now that the guys are getting paid, we have to
(31:36):
coddle them even more, especially Texas athletes matt As. You know,
any athlete at places like A and M or Texas
even Texas Tech, they get their balls lathered up pretty good.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Anyway, Texan charm.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
There was enough pushback to where A and M removed
the sentence and we will see what happens. They don't
lose very much. Since I don't know what you're talking
about this is locally relevant since Lincoln Riley, if you remember,
in an unprecedented move the first time I've ever heard
of it in college football, especially at USC, for God's sakes,
(32:15):
allowed Caleb Williams to duck out of an interview, which
meant the whole team had to duck out of interviews
if you weren't going to have the Heisman winner out there,
and it would happened a couple times after losses at USC,
and that certainly did not go over well. When the
best player in the sport, who's getting paid more than
(32:36):
the coach at Fresno State, getting paid more than some
head coaches, is allowed to duck out after a loss.
That much like not being able to drink a tall
Boy in your car.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
That's not cool.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
It seems kind of communist to me. Now. The dictation
of access to media debate has always existed. People say, well,
why should you, what's your what is your right to
talk to these guys? And you know that's been going
on for a long time. I remember a long time
ago Carson Palmer, one of his older brothers, tried to
(33:11):
stop him from talking to the media after a loss
at USC, and at this point. I was already working
in the media, but I, you know, of course played
with Carson. I knew his brother and knew the situation
and all that. And I saw the brother who like
wore this big, stupid lifeguard hat everywhere he went, tried
to stop Carson from talking, and to be fair, Tim
(33:32):
Teslone at the time said, you can't do that.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Get out of here. And because that was a guy
that had an old school mentality, like this guy's a
high end quarterbacks. We just lost. He's got to answer
the questions. Now, my view is, if you're old enough
to take money and go out and perform, you can
learn to answer questions when it's easy and when it's hard.
(33:58):
I mean, that's part of growing up. It's part of
being a person that has a lot of responsibility as
a high level athlete.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Like reason they call it the college experience.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
You have to learn to answer these questions. You think
it's easy, It's not like I've had to do it
many times five, six, seven, eight times as the captain
of the team and we sucked, you know, and you
have to go up there and you don't want to
throw the coaches under the bus. You don't want to say, hey,
the fullback went the wrong way, that's why the guy came.
You know you. But you learn to have a kind
(34:30):
of balance and answer those questions. And it's part of
being a person. It's part of growing as an athlete.
And I think it's sad that people are starting to
consider doing this more and more. We had an issue.
I mean, the guy that reported on it was kind
of a it's that Wolcan guy, but it wasn't just him,
but they had issues in the Notre Dame locker room
(34:52):
after Notre Dame lost to Ohio State at the end
of the year, after Texas loss, they're one of their
safeties was in the tunnel throwing like a what you
would call like a temperature film, and somebody had a
camera on it because there's media everywhere, and some Texas
guy that works there who was also holding a camera
was like, well, don't you shoot that?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Did you shoot somebody?
Speaker 3 (35:15):
In the worst moment, It's like, guys, this is how
we look. You want to be a pro athlete. You
want to be in the arena, this is the arena.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
And get a podcast. Yeah, you want to have.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
A podcast where we bring on other athletes and talk
about it. Yeah, talk about the new Cardi B song
like this, this is the arena And to try to
shelter kids from it, it's only makes it worse and dumber. Anyway,
shame on you A and M A ANDM more like
aggressive and misguided.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Yeah, am I right? I get it.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
And in related news, the guy that got Lincoln Riley's
panties all in a bunch in twenty twenty three, do
you remember his name? The local beat rider, A young
kid hell Daily News Luca Evans. Was he Times or
Daily News, Daily News? OC Register Register? Yeah? So yeah,
the daily news group Luca Evans who pissed off Lincoln Riley.
Lincoln Riley said it was because he asked the guy
(36:13):
question what he shouldn't That's not why it was.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It was about Releak Brown transfer.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Yeah, he said something about releak transferring, and Lincoln's like,
how could you know that? Well, two weeks later the
guy transferred and he's still at Arizon a reporter. He's
still at Arizona State. That guy that Lincoln Riley tried
to suspend and embarrassed himself nationally in the college football world.
Remember that story, Luca Evans announced today that he's leaving town.
(36:38):
Took the Denver Broncos beat great great gig gre So.
Congratulations to Luca Evans, uh, a young local media guy
who had Lincoln Riley flustered like a like a woman
at the opera catching the vapors at the turn of
the last century, holding those binoculars on a stick.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
That's all.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
That's how Luca had Lincoln acting. Now he gets to
do it with Sean Payton, I would say, Sean Payton,
who also likes to control the narrative, probably as annoying
and as bitchy as Lincoln Riley, but he knows how
to play the game.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
More accomplished, Yes, yeah too, more accomplished. Yes.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
Congratulations to everybody involved, except for.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
You A and M. You weenies. Why'd you strike you
out there? Lay me alone? Let him get his ninety
thousand dollars, dodge ram truck and drive back to the door.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
How come that guy hit a home run off you
with this composite bat that dropped into the gulf. I
don't want lay may be I have a tea, sip
t SIPs. How was your weekend coming up there? Thanks

Speaker 2 (38:40):
Not the you though, Canada, Well, I guess maybe now
in the championship game they could. I had a weekend
in Alabama, delayed flights, had to sprint to my connection
in Vegas. From C to Terminal B.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Always pleasant. Yeah, catch a whiff a cigarette smoke while
you're sprinting two separate cigarette spots. I had to sprint by.
It had to be close to I would guess three
quarters of a mile between where I was and where
I had to go and what shat my ass? I
got yelled at by the old ass passengers in the
first row. Why are you in such a hurry? Why
are you up and move? Because I have a connection
to make and your old handicapped ass taking an extra
(39:14):
twenty minutes to get on the plane is why we
missed our slot. Didn't they do the cool thing where
they say like, hey, people got a connection, get up,
get out.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
They did let them out, and then the people were like, well,
why are they getting to the people that had There
were like six wheelchairs to get on this plane from
Long Beach to Vegas, and they're barking at me. Those
wheelchairs are gonna be sitting in front of a slot
machine exactly right with a canister of oxygen generately freaking
emphasema A holes hit up the Dreamland Barbecue on Friday Night.

Matt manager comes running out, stop harassing the customers. Tommy,
I go, Tommy goes, can I get a rode back
(40:07):

I looked at the manager. I said, is he fine?
He's like he's armless, He's just a pain in the ass.
I was like, all right, Tommy, I'll give you a right,
I'll look at you. I gave Tommy about the show,
but he did have a lanyard on with a picture
of him and Nick Saban in it hanging around his neck.
I took this on a day. I gave Tommy a
(40:27):
ride home Saturday. Uh drove out to Tuscal Loose and
all heroes were capes. Matt no. I gave him a
five block ride to his apartment. He asked me for coke.
I said, excuse me? He said, Coca cola. Could you
buy me one? I was like a little too late
for that, Tommy, I'll just give you a ride home.
UH drove the Tuscal Loose to call the game, hit
up the hotel bar. Back at the UA, b Hilton

good job. It didn't sound like you wanted again.
Speaker 6 (41:31):
No, we took all six callers that were there, so
I appreciate all of them. Went to the Broken Compass
Tiki Bar here in Burbank for some drinks until they
closed at eleven, and then we decided on Saturday just
to kind of hang out around the house. I had
a girls basketball game that I went to with Sadie.
She wanted to watch Burroughs take on Village Christian and
girls' basketball playoff game.
Speaker 3 (41:50):
That they competed harder than the Barkley's Ogs or whatever.
Speaker 2 (41:53):
That it was cool.

Jello performed at halftime.

sat down and we had a great time. Had a
couple of marks as well. Not blended.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Now that's good. You know you learned your list.
Speaker 9 (42:57):
Yes, indeed, Saturday afternoon we gathered for my sister in
law's birthday, Happy Birthday Diana at a Mediterranean restaurant in
Crito's called Panini Kabab Grill, right across from the Sorito's Mall.
Saturday night, we relaxed at home watch the SNL fiftieth
Anniversary the musical portion where they showed all the performances
(43:18):
and sort of like behind the scenes commentary from cast
members and artists. That was pretty interesting. And Sunday stayed
home doing domestic chores around the house. And I did
not watch one second of the NBA All Start.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Oh but you know I did watch.
Speaker 9 (43:33):
I did watch the SNL fiftieth anniversary show though it
was all right, and that was that was my weekend.

(44:11):
On Saturday, of course, I went to yoga and then
I took my wife and daughter to lunch. My wife
in Redondo Beach. We went to a restaurant called the Rockefeller,
where I enjoyed not it's not and I enjoyed not one,
but two red sant grias. Because that's the kind of
(44:32):
party guy that I am.
Speaker 2 (44:33):
I mean, if it's not a white sangree, I'm not.
I don't like.
Speaker 3 (44:36):
But that's what I say. I say the Rockefeller matt
only used to serve a white sangree. And I said
to my wife, where's the red sangria? I mean, it's
all it's terrible that I'm ordering a sangree in the
first place. Could I get it red? And then I
took them shopping a little bit shopping and bopping.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (44:56):
My brother Dimitri and his uh women came over. Wife Courtney,
daughter Yoko and other daughter Sachiko came by Asians and Uh,
it was wonderful. I don't like it when they complain
about their kids because they're like.
Speaker 2 (45:17):
You feel like it's competition.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
She's like no, she's just like you know, look at her.
She's upset, and I'm like, those kids just did what
you said, Like you told her not to touch that,
and she hasn't touched it.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
My kid would have set it on fire an hour
ago and then throw it. Stop it. I don't want
to hear you can play anyway.
Speaker 7 (45:36):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (45:36):
Yesterday I got a haircut. My annual head shaving, which
I do once a year. Was shaving. Yeah, shaved, I.
Speaker 2 (45:44):
Just tucked underneath the pink struck. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:47):
There's a bald guy at my barber and last time
I went in there to get my head shaved, he said,
I won't do it. You have hair, I won't do it.
And today I came back. I said, I don't care
what you think. Shave my head. It's my cleansing. So
he shaved my head and then I ate a taco
alone at a cost. Apply eat you. I hate my
(46:09):
taco solitude. It's very peaceful. Sure that was it?

They just believed in pillows. Different a small pillow. I mean,
I get it, you don't want to creok in your neck.
But the man's dying. I mean, could you get a
bigger could we He's getting maybe a second pillow shot
the head. He's got the smallest pillow in the world.
Speaker 2 (47:11):
Might still be alive today. Think that modern medicine wheel.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
My pillow save his head. Yes, we'll be right, can
get its discount on my pillow. And if he had

we're number. Song of the day coming up with eck
