In our final segment, will have some litigious talk because
we live in litigious times with the one and only
Sweet James, the dense Beard of Justice, and we also
talked to James Worthy, which was very enlightening. As the
(02:32):
day goes on, we'll see what happens with the Lakers
and the Clippers. We'll talk to Don McClain tomorrow as
well about the same topic.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
His words the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Today's word of the day is balla clava. As you know,
the ballaklava was actually you probably don't know this, but
there was like a reggae song that came out a
while back. It wasn't a reggae what was It was
a dance whole song, but it was on it was
a British label, so it was like a British Jamaican guy.
Speaker 6 (03:04):
Why wouldn't I know about that?
Speaker 3 (03:05):
I don't know, But it was on like a mixtape
and the song was called Balaclava. And on the song
the guy said, count see me face balla Clava. Count
see me face Balaklava. And this is before COVID. This
is like twenty nineteen, and I was like, Matt, we
gotta get on this balla clava game. We could have
(03:25):
Sweet James make petros and money balaklava's can't see me face.
And then all of a sudden, COVID hits. Everybody's walking
around like a terrorist in a balaklava. And did Matt
take my advice? Non balla cloma? Then balla cloma?
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Right?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yeah, so that became like a thing, And then you know,
on the show, it became a thing because Matt and
we missed an opportunity to make millions. Oh oh, you
need to protect your face. Oh, COVID's got everybody in
a in a weird panic, and nobody knows what's going on,
and everybody's believing anything that they read or see, and
the news media is misleading everybody. Here, botta clavas protre somebody.
We got a whole stack twenty bucks eat. We would
(04:14):
have been singing, yeah, we would have been singing that
on a pile of cash. Okay, but kee me FIUs
baklava the ki and there's any other just walking around
with torches and botta clavas and a barking dog. Uh
So anyway, very post apocalyptic, which was what COVID was like. So, uh,
(04:38):
we could have been way ahead of that, right, So
then everybody started wearing masks right all over the place.
And then all of a sudden, if a dude was
going into the Apple Store to steal like fifty phones,
he wore like a mask. So now people are like
against masks. You know what I mean, You can't cover
your face because now how you're gonna get into the
into it Dome. You know, we don't know, we don't
know what you look like. Key on, see your face balaklava. Well,
(05:04):
this has come to a head in a very old way,
an old sports fan way of showing distaste for your team.
I remember it way back when the Saints really sucked
and people would go to the Superdome and they'd wear
bags over their house, paper bags, and you couldn't see
the face and it would say the Aints, you know,
(05:26):
or something like that. Demoralized fans basically, Well, Pittsburgh in
the Pirates. They had a game against the Cardinals yesterday.
They won two to one in thirteen innings. They're off
to a five and eight start to the season. But
you know, the fans aren't happy because Pittsburgh is one
of those teams. They have one of the most beautiful parks,
They have a great iconic sort of franchise, right kind of,
(05:52):
and they don't spend money. They make money. They don't
spend money.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Sweet logos, really Stargel Roberto Clemente.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
I mean not to like Sid Breen, Doug drey Back,
but uh so, somebody wore their bag on their head
the other day yesterday at this game Pittsburgh versus the Cardinals,
and they came around the stadium usher types and told
(06:19):
the guy that he cannot wear a bag on his
head at the stadium because it's like a balaklava. Here
is a report Katie Ka in Pittsburgh television has.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
More a Pirates fan sending a silent but clear message
at today's game, but he says he was forced to
take off the bag he had over his head to
protest the team's on an off field performance. Katie K's
Ricky Sayer spoke with that fan and asked the Pirates
why that symbolic gesture was not allowed.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Okay, let's get out to the Pirates.
Speaker 8 (06:50):
Came away with the wind wednesday. It didn't do much to.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Hear about a little bit of wind noise sending out
with some fireworks, sending it out to the field, a
little bit of ambient noise when we leave the studio
and get out to PNC Park, let's hear the report.
Speaker 8 (07:06):
The Pirates may have came away with the win Wednesday,
but it didn't do much to cool the frustration many
fans feel.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
This is a game.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Bob going into the voiceover couldn't stop the frustration many
fans feel.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Many fans feel this.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Is a game.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Bob Nutting should have paid me to come watch.
Speaker 8 (07:26):
One fan to play on the field to Clement, A
logo removal and the bucko bricks disappearance all led him
to wear a bag on his head at Wednesday's game.
Speaker 9 (07:35):
Sends the message wearing a bag on the head that
we're probably Pirates fans, but we don't. We're embarrassed. So
the product put in the field and how the tea's
then Ryan so to me, they represented a nice, peaceful,
silent protest.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
The bag didn't stay on past the third inning. Tom
Lowris says a staff member told him he had to
take it off or leave, So we took it off.
Speaker 9 (07:57):
I asked why and he said there's a I no
mask policy at the ballpark.
Speaker 8 (08:02):
He checked the Pirates online rules.
Speaker 9 (08:04):
And there's a lot of rules, but now I'm saying
they about masks.
Speaker 8 (08:07):
A Pirate spokesperson says he's in unridden.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Rules and many unwritten rule Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
So much for COVID, so much for old fauci.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
A Pirate spokesperson says he's in unridden rule and one
that's coming at many sports venues, not just.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
P and C Park.
Speaker 8 (08:24):
He says the rule has been in place for years
and it's why the Pirates don't let people in with
Halloween masks or any other non religious full face covering.
Speaker 9 (08:33):
I'm thinking he just doesn't want me to have my
bag on my head because it tells the world that
Pirates fans are embarrassed of the product that's on the field.
Speaker 8 (08:41):
But the Pirates say that's not the case, and that
they've gone to great lengths to ensure even the most
frustrated fans can have their say.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
So nothing's here to me right now.
Speaker 10 (08:51):
I would say, Tom, if you don't want someone wearing
a bag over their face, be honest, be sincere.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Managing a team that's successful.
Speaker 8 (09:00):
Or is hoping other fans join that.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Guy trying to say manager, Hearts fans unite, do the bag.
Speaker 6 (09:06):
Hoarding Live Katy Kay TV News, hold lot of second?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Was that, rick That's good job, Ricky?
Speaker 6 (09:13):
So no masks a lot, manage the team, do the bag.
So nobody's ever walked around like the uh, the pirate
parrot or anything like that. Nobody's ever worn an eye patch?
Speaker 3 (09:23):
Right double? What are we doing here? Honest?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Here have some authenticity about managing a team that's successful.
Speaker 8 (09:31):
You're drugs. Join him at a future game.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Hearts fans unite the bag, according.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
Live Ricky Sayer Katie Ka TV News, the job, Ricky,
that's good. That's good report.
Speaker 9 (09:43):
Do the bag's hearts fans unite.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
The bag on your Head's like one of the old adage. Yeah,
what are you supposed to do? Keep paying full price
for bad baseball?
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Yes, but you can still wear a bag on your
Apparently not in Pittsburgh, though, do the bag. We don't
to have that situation here, you know, I mean, you
think about it. Even the Angels are doing better.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
Where was the last time a franchise in Los Angeles
had the fans do something like this? Was it the
Rams at Georgia frontiery back in the ninety three ninety
four kind of time, clippers, slippers teams, the Dodgers.
Speaker 6 (10:20):
Never I said the Dodgers were really bad. I don't
recall the time that they were bad.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Not bag on the head bad. Yeah, I mean I
don't really see. I mean the Angels hate Ardy Moreno,
people hate Lardy like I could see some head bags.
But in Anaheim, who's gonna drive down the ten last
to get put a bag on that.
Speaker 6 (10:40):
That's a very East Coast thing. But do the bag
support the pirates? I think it's great. Good for him,
stand with us, do the bag.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Let's get out to the park.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
Here's my number. Number of the day, Petrous. The number
of the day is five. That's right, five because according
to former Dodger Cody Bellinger, oh he will not eat
wings for five years. And why five years? Put a
(11:15):
number on it. Apparently he was in Detroit. He was
trying to enjoy the National Championship game on Monday night.
He ordered some wings.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Where was he in a hotel?
Speaker 6 (11:24):
In a hotel be a room service, No sauce, no nothing,
just dry like no buffalo sauce, no lemon pepper, just dry.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Wings.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
He said they felt great, but at about four am
he woke up sweating and just started throwing up for
a few hours. It was a tough morning. I was
down back. So Cody Bellinger has sworn off wings.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Well, what's the five year limit? That's like the twelve
mile lemon out of the ocean.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
Because to me, if you get food poisoning on anything,
that's it, it's over. Well, I mean it doesn't necessarily
it's it until you're in some situation and you say,
oh well if everybody and then you do it and
you get over the hump. But you don't know when
or if that ever will happen. You can't set a time.
(12:11):
That's like a woman, you know, saying like I'm mad
at you. I don't know when I'll be I don't
know when i'll be not bad. It's like, okay, well
you want to let me know when that's gonna be.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Like, you know, you don't know back to me until
eight fifteen.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
Yeah, it's like you know, I will not eat wings
for fun? Shut up, Cody cross eye, idiot, Like who
makes that? Who makes that kind of proclamation?
Speaker 3 (12:36):
Five years?
Speaker 6 (12:36):
Like what I listen, I got sick on a restaurant Casadia.
To this day, I can't eat them.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
I can here.
Speaker 6 (12:44):
This is two thousand one.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
It's time to get over to the dog glucos.
Speaker 6 (12:49):
Get over it, get over listen, listen. My wife's Mexican,
all right, I am well versed in the culture.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
So what if she makes a casadilla for you at
the house? Not eat?
Speaker 6 (13:00):
Oh, come on at the house. In fact, not only
when I eat it. I'll look her square in the
eyes and I'll say.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
What's more hair?
Speaker 6 (13:12):
Hair?
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Uh, that's a case of dia.
Speaker 6 (13:17):
I can't. It's tortilla, and there's something about it's.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Basically the same ingredients of every other Mexican meal you've
ever eaten.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
Okay, but what if if you have too much of
a certain alcohol and you throw it up?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Can you have it? Again? I can't. I'm ount what
am I gonna do? Go buy a bottle of soco?
Like I am I going to ed an adult?
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Like if I walked by a puddle of dark Bacardi,
I jump off the twenty three freeway. I can't have it.
What can't be around.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
What happens to me is I'll smell somebody's perfume and
it reminds me of a woman from from yesteryear, and
that buckles me. From time to time. I get hit
with the nostalgia of some feminine devil.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
And then you start looking her up.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
I think she left her number in the year book.
Have a cool summer, I know, you really, Amanda.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
What if Cody gets the munchies, you know?
Speaker 3 (14:04):
And yeah, that's the thing. A stone a stone boner
like that, Cody Bellinger, He's gonna be at some club
hungry as hell, and a Plato wings are gonna come by,
and he's gonna be five vodkatonics deep and he's going
to attack those wings and forget about that fateful night
in Detroit watching Florida beat Houston. I mean, if tournament
awards coming up here, and by the way they were
they were dry.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
So if they had buffalo sauce or something on him,
maybe that would change a change's palet a little bit,
you know, maybe.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Dry so like he'll never eat Like he's not gonna
eat chicken.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
Yeah that's the point.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Like what so Like it's the same with you. You're
an idiot, like literally tortilla and that's it.
Speaker 6 (14:43):
There was something about the grease on the box and listen.
I don't want to air out the restaurant. I had
it at el I don't want to. I'm not doing that,
So don't force me into doing that.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
But notice, whenever you drive by the Elzerito, the bulls
butthole is the thing that's staring at you. It's like,
why do you place the to where like the first
thing you see is the butthole of the bull Like,
I get it, you know the people at the restaurant,
it's kind of but why do I have to see
from the street like the one on the Elterino on
Hawthorne in Torrance, like and SkyPark I think it is.
(15:16):
It's just like you stare right into the butthole, like
you turn it. You almost make a left into the
butthole of the bowl. And it's like, what what what
message are we sending?
Speaker 6 (15:23):
They had that one and uh thousand oaks that got
rid of it years ago, and that's what happened to you. Well, yeah,
the restaurant's gone, but not your terrible I can't a casadilla.
I cannot have it around. So in Cody Bellinger's case,
five years is like manslaughter compared to the murder rat
that's twenty five to life that you put on KSA
(15:43):
dias and you're served.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
That's terrible.
Speaker 5 (15:45):
You know, there's a bigger problem surrounding Cody Bellinger. And
then these young kids and I call them kids because
they're you way younger than me, Torpedo Bat. They just
don't go out. You know, they're on the road in Detroit.
They stay at the Team hotel and they play call
of duty against each other or against other people onlines
like hey, go out have dinner somewhere.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
People aren't as socialist. They don't know how hard it was.
You know, you couldn't swipe right, and some messed up
chick in the head showed up to have sex with
you at the house. You have to go find the
messed up chick in the head at the club. There's
all kinds of other competition at the club, and like
we used to have to like go be thrown out
into the wild and like talk to people and deal
with stuff and move people around town and get in
(16:21):
cabs and drive freaking ubers and all this stuff. Oh,
I just swept left and that six with this girl
in lubb because I'm from California. F you shouldn't be
that easy. We had to go to war just to
talk to a chick.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
Nowadays people go to Sharkis to eat. Back then you're
going there to hunt sharkies to eat.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
You can't stop to eat, eat or be eating. People
used to go to Sharkis to eat. That's a great point.
It's a very California point, very southern California point, but
well made.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
This is this song of the Day today.
Speaker 11 (17:05):
Song of the Day is called Detour from iconic British
rock band The Who, because the Petrosen Money Show is

Dave said seven David Veasse right now on AM five
(18:45):
seventy LA Sports our Dodger reporter. He just got back
in the middle of the night from Washington, d C.
What does he get for that? He's got to work
all night do Dodger talk from seven to eight. But
everybody looking forward to it, and the Cubs will be
in town of the weekend. He is our Dodger reporter
Spectrum Sportsnet LA and MLB Network. Nobody does a better
(19:07):
job than Dave at the Real Underscore Dave assa, what's cracking, Dave?
How are you?
Speaker 4 (19:12):
I'm doing great, guys. Yeah. I got back at one
am to the vast A compound and got my life
back in order before getting ready for the show tonight.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Dave, how big was the salvaging of the victory last night?
One more victory? I don't know how much it means
at the end of the night for the Dodgers, but
just for the psyche of the team and for the
long flight, how big was that? It was a nail
bider all the way to the end.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
Yeah, that's a great question, Petros, that nobody really has
asked me in the last twelve hours. Being in that
clubhouse after the game yesterday, it was more quiet than
you would imagine after a Dodger win. I've been in
those clubhouses. There was not too many guys too elated
(19:57):
over salvaging the final game in washing d C And
losing both series on the road. The Dodgers, going back
to two years ago, have this ritual where they will
toast a series win. They did not have a single
team toast on this last road trip, so they were
not happy even though they won the game yesterday.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
Dave, how much of this is fatigue? I mean going
you know, did Japan coming back? You know, the pageantry
with celebrating the World Series, the emotions. This could this
be you know, the proverbial adrenaline dump or they just
go on the road now and just trying to Now
everything's catching up to them. This weird start of the
season for another year.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
In a row.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Yeah, the offense has been better than what that would reflect.
But what it comes down to is they're starting pitching.
Really didn't pitch well on this road trip. Outside of
Yamamoto and Dustin May. Those two guys pitched the best
in those two cities. You had the glass now meltdown
in the light rain in the third inning on Saturday.
(21:01):
You had two rookies be called up for spots starts
in Robleski and Landon Knack, and they didn't give the
Dodgers much of anything. So that sounds great in theory,
but when you look at it, they're starting pitching let
him down more than anything else, and that has nothing
to do with Tokyo or the ring ceremony or anything else.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Dave.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Overall, what do you think it's gonna be like this?
Weekend when they come home. Do you think they're gonna
be the buzz saw that they were with Freddie Freeman
in the lineup? I know he's going to be back,
and all the different video stuff that they had going
back and forth across the country. Do you think we're
gonna see an invigorated and angry Dodger team. It doesn't
look like they're as intimidating as they were when they
(21:42):
started the season. Brother, Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
And you know, I felt like they were in a
different weight class than the Cubs in Tokyo, and you
look up and all of a sudden, those Cubs are
in first place in the NL Central and they gave
the Diamondbacks everything they could handle over the course of
the last three or four games that they played out
there in the desert. But the Cubs are a good team,
(22:07):
but the Dodgers match up so much better than they do.
I just I feel like the Dodgers will get back
to their winning ways on this homestand and a big
reason why is because they're going to have good starting
pitching in this series that is going to favor them,
starting with tomorrow night's matchup of Yama Moto. Going up
against basically an unknown and then they're gonna have Sazaki
(22:30):
on Saturday. So I just feel like getting Freddy Freeman
on top of having Yamamotos starting tomorrow, Petros is going
to make everybody forget about the cold, painful road trip
to the East Coast.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
Dave, you have a well known strong dislike for the
Cubs fan base. Can we expect any as like any
sort of a dust ups with some of these insti
Cub fans are going to show up now because they
think they might win the awful Lenal Central.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
Whatever happened to the Cubs dynasty that we heard about? Yeah,
it lasted all but one year, right, and Rizzo made
one of the worst defensive plays in World Series history
last year. Chris Bryant is always hurt in Denver. Hovey
Bias has one of the worst contracts in Detroit. I mean,
I feel like the Cubs are back to being those
(23:18):
lovable losers and also a wasteland for former Dodgers like
Justin Turner.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
And Michael Bush.
Speaker 7 (23:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
No, Bush is pretty good still, but oh Turner's not good.
I mean, come on, Turner's back, You're gonna have a
good time talking to him over the weekend. Why do
you want to say that about Turner right before he
shows up?
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Are you gonna tell me Justin Turner in twenty twenty
five is as good as he was even in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
No, I would never say that.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Yeah, it's just like when Ron Say and Dusty Baker
and Mike Piazza and Eric carrosall ended their careers in Oakland.
It kind of happens that way.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Jeezus sneeze wow, David Va and he stays with the Dodgers,
and everybody else comes and goes, and Dave's stays in
top of it with the Dodgers. But you know, David,
it does seem like there's a lot of competition, and
it's not just the Padres man. It feels like everybody's
got a good record right now in the West except
for Rockies.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Yeah, and the Giants played a lot of their games
at home, and they're a much different team in a
good way at home, so pitching and defense matter a
lot there. I just don't see. I feel like the
Giants are so fake though their record is so fake
that does not reflect where it will be even two
months from now. So I'm not buying the Giants every
(24:33):
gloves buster Posey, and they believe that he brought that
magic from twenty twelve and twenty fourteen to the Giants.
They won four games at home. They are five and
one on the road, so you got to give it
to them there. But how long is that going to last.
I'm a big believer in the Padres and Diamondbacks being
playoff teams. The Giants are going to be better, but
(24:55):
I just don't see how their offense is going to
compete with the other teams in the West.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
Dave, What's been the most surprising struggle for the Dodgers
early on?
Speaker 4 (25:06):
Well, I guess starting pitching.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Right.
Speaker 4 (25:08):
We heard so much about how great this starting staff is.
Blake Snell's on the il Tyler glassnew doesn't like rain,
Roki Sazaki is a work in progress. So to me,
it feels like the starting staff might have been a
little over hype to begin the year. And I was
warning against that. Everybody was talking about how much depth
(25:29):
the Dodgers had pitching wise, and I said, well, yes,
in totality for a whole season, but coming out of
the gates, they don't have all the guys. Everybody was
naming including Otani and Clayton Kershaw, and now they don't
have Blake Snell for at least two starts.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Well, how hard is it for those guys in Triple A?
Even though it's like, yeah, the five guys that are
down at Triple A could come up and be the
starting five in a rotation for most other baseball teams.
But how hard it is is it for those guys
just to get the cane out of Triple A and
be expected to pitch and carry a big time baseball team.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
And I'm sure it's hard for them Petros to get
one start like a Robleski Nack's going to get another turn,
And I'm sure he was aware that when he started yesterday,
But who knows. But I'm sure in a lot of
these guys's case, when they get called up, they feel
like they got to perform because there's so much competition
to be part of this rotation. So don't rule that
(26:30):
out as being a factor. Where guys we always hear
about hitters pressing. Could it be that Robleski was pressing
to impress? Could have been Nack was trying to press to,
you know, pressing to impress. I feel like that's part
of this equation for those young guys. They're not only
competing against the other team, but they're competing against each other.
Speaker 6 (26:51):
What do you expect from Freddy Freeman? I know it's
Bobblehead Night, the first forty thousand.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
It's a good bobblehead. I wonder if they'll be as
much fanfare for it.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
I think it's the best one they've done in a lot.
To be honest with you, no offense sho tani no.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
I'm with you.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
I feel like this year's bobblehead collection is much better
than what they trotted out last year, starting with this
Freddie Freeman walk off Grand Slam bobblehead. Dave Roberts in
his jacket on the on the bench, that's a nice one,
and ice Cube is the best bobblehead of the year
in my opinion.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Nice Dave all right, Buster.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Only only and from Vermont. It lives in Montana.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Now he can get over to Ben and Jerry's and
God bless Andre Ethier.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Forty three years old. Our guy Andre Eahier. Hard to believe.
And by the way, he was the only Dodger to
drive in a run in Game seven of the twenty
seventeen World Series True.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Day.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
We love the greatest mysteries of that world series. Why
Andre Ethier did not start more games?
Speaker 3 (27:56):
That's what the kid though.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
His reputation was for being clutched.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
A lot of people still very angry about the uh
the picture there you Darvish, you know that? Yeah, he apologized.
Rich Hale is still cussing in the in the clubhouse.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
I believe you.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
We love you, Dave. Have a great night, and we'll
be listening to Dodger Talk at seven o'clock and we'll
talk to you tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Okay, thank you guys.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
There he goes David ves Haye, man, what.
Speaker 6 (28:20):
I pity the cub fan who run across David vest I.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Mean, you're bringing up old ass. Nobey even talks about
that anymore. No one even cares, I mean to act like, oh,
this was the refuse When they leave the Dodge, it's like, well,
Cody Bellinger's a Yankee. It's like, oh, I don't know.
I mean, I know, the Dodgers are great franchise. Everybody
wants to be with, of course, except for that Trey Turner. Yeah,
(28:45):
and Manny Machado and Otawni. When he resigned with the Angels.
Speaker 6 (28:52):
Facts.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
That's the truth. That's that's the truth. Maybe that's as
that cat's no, that's my father. We'll be right back
with Sweet James. If you're in trouble in the courts
or somebody owes you money, Sweet James could be your father,
that's true. Stay tuned for the dense beard of justice. Next,
(29:27):
deeply self important, unwarranted self importance, that's correct. Joining us
now a man that is not self important. I mean
if he was, it would be so warranted because he've
amassed billions of dollars for thousands of clients. He cares
about the people, cares about us, We care about you.
(29:47):
That's why we bring him on to answer the tough questions.
The dense Beard of Justice, Sweet jam.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
The Home of the Dodgets.
Speaker 12 (29:57):
With an inside look at the Dodgers. This is the
Vassie Report with David Basse. That's not the Sweet James intro.
We got to play the Sweet James intro. Order in
the court, Order, in the court. It's time for justice
with Sweet James.
Speaker 6 (30:21):
Cor retraction.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
The one and only Sweet James. Eight hundred and nine
million is the number. We love him always. From parts unknown,
what's cracking, Sweet James, how are you?
Speaker 2 (30:32):
I'm super happy to be honest with you.
Speaker 10 (30:34):
Guys.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
How they'll be doing well?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Dude? Did you see what happened in Eagle Rock? No,
all right, I'll tell you what happened in Eagle Rock,
Sweet James. Now, Coachella's coming. Have you ever been to Coachella? Yes,
I I've not, but I'm not that cool. Coachella's coming
up this weekend. And one of the headliners you guessed it, Weezer.
Ye Now the bassis for Weezer. Okay, not the original bassis,
(30:58):
the actual original bass for Weezer. Friend of the show
sends me signed albums Matt Sharp, who left the band
after Pinkerton and created the Rentals where he has the
great song Friends of Pee. If you're friends with pe,
well that's you're friends with me. That's not about me.
But I do know Matt Sharp, but he's a great guy.
(31:22):
The new Basis is married to some well new like
you know, he's been there like twenty years. He's married
to some chick, right, and this chick who's kind of
a gnarly chick used to be like a sex worker
or something. She there was there was a chase in
follow me now, Sweet James, there was a chase chasing
eagle rock right foot bail and a nice neighborhood. Three
(31:45):
criminals are running around somehow the Weezer bassis wife emerges
from her backyard with the thirty eight or something no yes,
brandishing a weapon. Told to put the weapon down by
the pole, does not. She gets shot in the arm
like a movie like Kojak where he shoots a gun
(32:06):
out of somebody's hand and Wow. Then goes into the
house and then comes out and surrenders. Thirty minutes later.
She would not follow instructions. They arrested her, Sweet James,
even though that she didn't fire the weapon. I don't
think they charged her with a tempted murder?
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (32:25):
And how is Weezer going to play Coachella? Kidding? You
know the guy's wife is in the right, she's in
the who's gun? Yeah, you might have to call that Charlotte.
You guys need me. Oh what happened? So you unpack that,
Sweet James, just throwing it, just pointing a weapon at somebody,
You can get attempted murder.
Speaker 10 (32:43):
You better believe it. Yeah, they don't know the intent
was she gonna pull the trigger or not. That's what
we have to assume that she was. It's gonna be
an attempted murder.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Every part of party I ever went to at usc
with the guys on the football team below Vermont, somebody
pulled out a gun at some point and started threatening somebody.
So are you saying that those people could all be
arrested for a tempted murder?
Speaker 10 (33:05):
Yeah? Yeah, all battery, tipt and murder. Yeah yeah, Man,
couldn't this that's crazy. She wasn't one running out of
the car. She just no jumped out of the out
of the house.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
She would be like if you were in your neighborhood
and there was like a crazy chase and you just
showed up with your arsenal and tried to join the
cops in the chase. Oh man defending her house though,
can't can't she say stand and deliver or whatever they
call that?
Speaker 10 (33:30):
Yeah? Shot, Yeah she could. But the police stay were instructions,
They identified themselves on stair in uniform sirons are blaring,
and if they put your gun down and you don't, yeah,
she got shot. She got shot.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
Now if it's just a flesh wound, you know, like
we see in the movies. She got shot in the
arm like Steve Martin and the Three Amigos real bullets,
you know, can she say hey, why'd you shoot me?
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Like?
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Can she come back and say, hey, y'all shot me?
Eagle Rock Paddies, what do you think you are with
your big sharp beat.
Speaker 10 (34:02):
I expect there'll be a lawsuit and they'll probably be
a loser. But yeah, that's uh, she can go ahead
and say that.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
But she had a gun.
Speaker 10 (34:07):
The officers like, this is what I'm trained to do.
My taxus, Your taxi go to train me to respond
to these threats. You are a threat to mean the
community holding again, you did not listen. I pulled the
trigger out out of and instrected to do Wow. Yeah
that's and we'll just stay in your house.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Yeah, stay in your house. Your taxes might go to
those cops. My taxes go to sex change for hamsters. Yeah, yeah,
that's what I want to all right. Jonas Knox is here,
Sweet James. He's a great thing. Lab.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
I got a cough.
Speaker 10 (34:37):
You make me laugh, and I got coffin.
Speaker 6 (34:39):
Sorry, sweet James, I've got a hypothetical for you, all right,
So say David Vasse this weekend's getting ready for this
big matchup between the Doctors and the Cubs. He's walking
through the parking lot mine in his own business. I say,
said a lot of things about the Cubs over the year,
and he's just he's trying to do his job and
all of a sudden, get out of nowhere. Some guy
(34:59):
walk up lays his hands on David Vassay and says
Justin Turner better is a cub and shoves him.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
What's case?
Speaker 6 (35:09):
Should he retaliate or can he get paid?
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (35:14):
Man, you can't say that about Justin. I mean, come
on with look Dodger Blue, come on, friends of the
show Turner.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Friends of Justin Turner. You can't bring up Justin Turner
and expects Sweet James to take mitigation.
Speaker 6 (35:28):
All right, that's fine, Jack Peterson, Jack Peterson better as
a cub.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Better as an a I mean, what's I mean?
Speaker 6 (35:36):
If that happens and Dave's got to defend himself, can
he just stop without defending himself and saying no, no,
I'm gonna take this to Sweet James.
Speaker 10 (35:42):
You just assaulted me, you know, Yeah, yeah you can
take that. Didn't get me go? Yeah, you can't you
can't lay hands on.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
On a.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Even though he's so fleshy, your hands you might get
stuck in there and you can't pull him. So why
don't I don't know. Does it look insensitive for the
Weezer Basis to play Coachella?
Speaker 10 (36:06):
Like, no, not at all.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
Can you get somebody out on bail for attempted murder
like in a day or do they have to like
sit there and marinate for a while.
Speaker 10 (36:17):
They'll have to marinate, they'll be a rain first and
then then the judges said pell So yeah, that's a charge.
It's going to take a moment or two.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
And she's not at the Twin Towers, right, she's with
the chicks down in Lynnwood, the Women's Central. Yeah, yep,
there no more endo, gin and Juice. I'm on my
way to Cheeto rolling in the Gray Goose. Oh that's
great stuff. Well not great stuff since the Weezer chick
got shot. But apparently she might have fired at the cops.
(36:46):
I don't know why it's popping off like that at
Eagle Rock, Like it's uh why versus the cowboy?
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
I see a red sash that killed a man wearing it?
