Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to k
if I Am six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. That was my name.
You can't take my name, damn it. You can call
me the Fawns. Stop it. Six.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I was six. I love His real name was Arthur.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Did anybody call you Fonsie per your request? No?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Did you tell yourse you're wearing a leather jacket though
I think that's appropriate for did you yes?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Did you ask your parents, hey, call me fons.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I just floated the idea. It wasn't really a request.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
What was their reaction? They didn't look up. They didn't
look up. They didn't look up. Wasn't that a simpler
time when our parents just ignored us. We could talk.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I didn't care at all, When you could say something like, hey, guys,
I'm gonna do a show.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
If you guys don't mind, I'm just gonna.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Do a little thing right here, a little skit right
and then nobody would look at anything.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Is that why we do what we do? Because they
are par for so long? Probably? All right?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Gary and Shannon k if I Am six forty Live
everywhere on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
App What are the Yankees going to be? The Yankees? Like,
it's kind of not even fair at this point. They
look awful.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I saw Alex Rodriguez on TV this morning and he
was trying to explain what it's going to take for
the Yankees to come back and win. I mean, first
of all, history making would be you know that that
would help, But hey, win one game, just win one,
you get that's the's the way you start.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I was listening to Rogan and Rodney yesterday on the
way home and they were talking about the idiots that
are like, no, I want them to win it here.
It's like, no, you don't. If you're a fan, you
want them who cares where? It doesn't matter where. Let
the sweeping the Yankees winning in New York, that would
be poetry.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
It'd be great to be able to celebrate in the
damn thing.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, that would be a big win for them.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
So that's silliness. But that game is tonight. Last night
they won four to two, so Game four is tonight.
They have the opportunity to sweep and to put an
end to this baseball season. We'll see if that happens,
but it is a bullpen game. I believe for the
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Tonight, Walker Bueller Man, you look great. Wow, that was incredible.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
They said something like the Yankees looked at twenty four
four seam fastball strikes last night, which, because we know
too much about statistics now, that's the second most for
any team all season long, looking at the four seam
fastballs and for the most part, that's the straightest ball
that can be thrown.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Well. Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver what they're calling
her campaign's closing argument today from the same spot in
Washington where former President Trump. Gosh, the god that even
that ap it's awful. I know exactly so where where
former President Donald Trump helped incite a mob that attacked
(03:01):
the capital on January sixth. To this point, we are
going to get to it later this hour, but the
coverage Trump versus Harris has been the most lopsided ever. Yeah,
it's crazy, and it just it makes me very angry
with the media the way things are written. This is
(03:22):
a case in point.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Well, it goes back also to what we were talking
about the last couple of days with the La Times
in the Washington Post and them deciding not to do
presidential or not to endorse a candidate in the presidential
race this year, and Jeff Bezos wrote a notp ed
piece that I didn't see it until this morning, and
it was basically, hey, listen, we have an awful reputation.
We the media are getting absolutely destroyed because everybody knows
(03:47):
our hand before we play it. So maybe we pull
back a little bit. Maybe we make an effort to
make sure that all of the viewpoints in America are
covered before we write stuff in our newspaper.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Also, he said that they didn't endorse a candidate until
nineteen seventy six. Also a thing again we talk.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
We grew up at a time when endorsements came from
newspaper editorial boards, I mean, until the La Times didn't
do it this time. I just thought that was something
that always happened.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
It's not.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
It's not something that always happened.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
And I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I mean, Jeff Bezos also makes the point who cares who?
Who waits at home until the Washington Post publishes their
endorsement and goes, I know, that's exactly what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
I'm gonna vote the way the Washington Post wants me
to if you read the La Times and you read
the Washington Post, do you know damn well would they endorse?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
And that's part of his point is like, we're not
surprising anybody, We're not doing anything. So you mentioned Vice
President Harris at the National Mall tonight. I think it's
about four thirty our time is when that is planned.
Former President Trump has been giving a speech in Palm
Beach down at mar A Lago ben It's about an
hour long now, and he's touched on a immigration, he's
(05:01):
touched on the economy, he's touched on the exit from Afghanistan.
And the assumption is he's going to take some questions.
At least that's why it was pitched. So we're actually
recording it and to see if he is asked any
questions about, for example, Madison Square Garden. He then travels
to Pennsylvania for a couple of events later tonight.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
He said this morning that Harris will have to go
home and get herself a job someplace. Who knows. Oh.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Speaking of the Harris thing, Joe Rogan has said that
it's not still not off the table, but that the
Harris campaign wanted him to travel to her to go
to DC and would only offer her up for an
hour long conversation for his podcast, as opposed to the
three hours.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
That he spent with Donald Trump in Austin. I wish
there was more of this across the board. Really, how
are everyday people affected? Trump today? Featuring speakers who were
harmed by policies under this administration. Tammy Nobles is one
of them, talked about the death of her daughter, the
perpetrator MS thirteen gang member in the country illegally. Michael Copy,
(06:10):
owner of a dry cleaner place, Go Green Dry Cleaners,
talked about how he and other small businesses are unable
to keep up with inflation. Christy Shamblin daughter in law,
Marine Sergeant Nicole Gee killed during that chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
If we could have real people talk about how things
(06:30):
affect them, it's better than Harris and Trump both calling
each other fascists and pointing fingers.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Which is funny because his speaking pattern, and we've talked
about it before, is almost incoherent. I mean, trying to
follow this guy's speech pattern is very, very diffinct. He's
a weaver because he's weaving. But when these family members
of people who are killed or small business owners get
up and speak on his behalf. I guess you'd say
on his behalf, or at least against the Biden Harris administration.
(06:58):
It's a much more coherent argument. And if tonight's speech
from Vice President Harris is supposed to be her closing argument,
this is very much or could be taken as his
closing argument. It's on his territory, it's on his turf
kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
He walked out to Michael Jackson's thriller. Apparently that's been
a mainstay at many of his campaign rallies. Odd choice,
do you think he does the dance? That'd be very funny.
So the Harris Walls campaign will be running an ad
on the exterior of the Sphere in Las Vegas, referred
to as the Exosphere. It's going to launch today, we'll
(07:34):
continue through election day. It appears to be the majority
of the ball The sphere is blue, a big picture
of Kamala there on that Some of her key messages
will spin in rotation, such as vote for opportunity, vote
for a new way forward, makes it clear to vote
(07:55):
by November fifth. First time a political campaign has ever
been activated on the exosphere. They got all kinds of money,
they might as well throw it so sure, how much
do you think that costs? No? I couldn't even We
should take We should do a Gary and Shannon show
add on the sphere, just.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Do like our big circle, just lay it over it
like it's a yeah or just a big eyeball that
looks We should start a GoFundMe for that, or just
ask them. Maybe they'll do it for free, you know,
on and off day like maybe November sixth, they won't
have any more political ads to run.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Maybe that's when we start the garyon Shannon ad. Maybe
maybe so.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Tony Hinchcliffe was the comedian who at Madison Square Garden
on Sunday Night caused everybody's heads to explode when he
launched into a series of tasteless jokes.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
The more I think about the Puerto Rico thing, the
more what an unforced error. Who asked for a joke
about Puerto Rico? Right again, it's just dumb. It's not
the payoffs not there, It's not worth it. Why would you?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Why would you have a roast comedian come and do
your show? But I found an interesting ally, perhaps of
Tony Hinchcliff and that was Jon Stewart on The Daily Show.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Now, obviously in retrospect, having a roast comedian come to
a political rally a week before election day and roasting
a key voting demographic probably not the best decision by
the campaign politically, But to be fair, the guy's really
just doing what he does.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
He goes on it plays a series of jokes from
the Tom Brady roast, yes, which I can't I'm not
going to play.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
That was a dirty, dirty, dirty roast. But he killed it.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I mean, everybody was cracking up at his stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
There's something wrong with me.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I find that guy Verry Fonny. So I'm sorry. I
don't know what to tell you, Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
I mean bringing him to a rally and have him
not do roast jokes. That'd be like bringing Beyonce to
a rally and not.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Okay, we need to talk about that too, because the
way the whole Beyonce event was billed was that she'd
be performing. It was going to be this massive event.
You're you're rolling out Beyonce like this is the biggest thing.
Beyonce did not perform. She got up there and she
talked for about a minute about the importance of voting
(10:12):
in the election. Hey, look who's on the Today Show.
It's Reba McIntyre. Your shame, Tom Brady. By the way,
there she is. Is losing it, tom Brady. He's losing
it because Giselle is pregnant with the jiu jitsu, the
jude zitsu jiu jitsu. Yes, yes, instructors baby.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
So tom Brady's posting these like stories on social media,
like pictures of sunsets with the lyrics to landslide, Mirror
in the sky, what is love? Yes, he is. He's
losing it. He's totally cracking up. Can a child in
my heart rise above all? That was his hold on
a second, I saw that Yeah on TV. Connection to
(11:02):
that was his. He doesn't have a friend that reaches
out and is like, hey, bro, take that down?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Which phone down? Looks awful after you read this text,
put your phone down. So yes, the question about what
happened with the Beyonce thing in Houston. Everybody was touting
it as it was going to be a Beyonce performance
of some kind freedom.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
So does that mean that the campaign.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Told members of the media that it was going to
be a performer or did the media assume or did
the media assume? We got caught up in that in
Chicago during the Democratic National Convention because everybody was talking
about what the surprise guest was going to be. Was
it going to be Taylor Swift on Thursday night? Was
it going to be Beyonce on Thursday night? And there
were people sending pictures to us of random personal jets
(11:56):
that were landing at O'Hare Airport or Chicago Midway and
saying that's Taylor Swift's airplane.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
No or or or And this is the worst the.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
The more conspiratorial view of it is the campaigns colluded
with the media outlets in Houston and other places to
try to draw people to what Beyonce concert? Oh to
draw and then you get to show, here's this huge
arena packed to the rafters for a free rally, when
(12:31):
actually they were there to go.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
See a Beyonce show, all right, coming up next.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I don't think anybody's going to see I don't think
anyone's packing an arena to go see Lee Greenwood. Although
I know he's a good artist, but he's not He's
not packing him in to a How dare you?
Speaker 1 (12:48):
How dare I? Am also to be an American. It
doesn't sound like it. It doesn't sound like it right now. Hey,
if you want to go live in Canada, fine, but
don't come here to America with that kind of attitude.
Lee Greenwood would black in political rallies with Anne Murray.
Dare you is she still alive? I don't know, I'll
(13:09):
google it. Also, I found out how much we need
to raise to rent out the sphere. Okay, so the
sphere features three to four brands each day. Adds appear
every few seconds for about four hours total of screen time.
If we wanted to get in on this putting up
the Gary and Shannon logo on the sphere the day
(13:30):
after the election, it would cost us roughly four hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. Okay, So that's how much we'd
need to raise on our GoFundMe.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
All right, Well, I'm not blinking at that. I feel
like that's about what I would have guessed.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
You think that's doable.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I don't know if I would say doable. Are you
actually going to put that in the American postal system?
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
It looks like you're mailing a blood sample to a
mid Saharan country.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Does it really? Is this the original packaging?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Okay, but you you can't put that much tape on
it because they're not gonna be able to read the label.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Oh, I guess you can, right, it's clear tape.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Yeah, Bro, I don't say clear, but it's clear.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Governor Newsom is holding a news conference downtown LA right
now talking about Hey, guess what more homeless funding hundreds
of millions of dollars flowing from the state to local
agencies to Oh wait, we've.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Done this repeatedly, talk positions. We have money on homeless,
millions billions of dollars that they can't figure it right, No,
because they don't know how to spend the money. They
don't know how to address a problem. There's too many
cooks in the kitchen. Money is not the issue when
it comes to homelessness. Wait, so then why is he
then going to get it? Because he's a horse's ass
(14:56):
dollars And.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
We've talked about how the endorsements are now disappearing from newspapers,
although there are places where it never actually happened. The
La Times, of course, we documented that story last week
about how the owner Patrick Sohnschong permitted the Biden endorsement
from four years ago, but did not allow the editorial
(15:21):
page to post an endorsement in the presidential election. He
says it was because they didn't do their homework. He
had required of the editorial page workers to put together
arguments for and against, and he said that never happened,
so he wasn't going to allow them to put an
endorsement in.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Here's part of the problem, I think. In twenty twenty,
the La Times published and opinion piece by its editorial
board titled endorsement. Joe Biden isn't just anybody but Trump.
He's the right fit for our polarized time. Kamala Harris
is anybody but Trump. That's exactly what she is, right.
(15:58):
Joe Biden had a lengthy decade. It's long career in Washington,
able to reach across the aisle, had the relationships, forged
the bonds to get things done in Washington. He really did.
She doesn't have any of that. She's just anybody but Trump.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
And Democratic voters already had a chance to elevate her
to somewhere near the top of the party and they
decided against her. When she was in the primary. She
didn't even make it to the Iowa CAUCUSUS.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Now, she may get the job, and she may start
building those relationships and forging those bonds in Washington, she
may knock it out of the park. But she hasn't
done that yet. And to say that she has, or
that she is at the level that Joe Biden was
when they endorsed Joe Biden, it's just being disingenuous to yourself.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
The USA Today took the unusual step of backing Biden
in twenty twenty in the for the first time ever
they got involved in endorsing of a presidential candidate. That's
the USA Today been around for decades now and had
never done a presidential endorsement before. The Sun Sentinel out
of South Florida, the main newspaper in the Fort Lauderdale
(17:06):
Broward County area, endorse Biden in twenty twenty, but has
said that they will not endorse a presidential candidate in
twenty twenty four, in line with a policy change that
they made a couple of years ago. And then obviously
the Washington Post, we talked about the Washington Post deciding
against having any endorsement and Jeff Bezos, just like in
(17:28):
the La Times situation. Jeff Bezos, the owner of the paper,
was the one that stepped in and put the kibosh
on this thing, and he said, we must be accurate.
Speaking of newspapers, we must be accurate. We must be
believed to be accurate. It is a bitter pill to swallow,
(17:48):
but we are failing on the second requirement. The owner
of the newspaper smells what the rock is cooking, which
is people have questioned the credibility of our our main
news sources that have existed for decades, and that's why
they're turning to alternative media in many cases. And Jeff
Bezos knows that. And what he's saying is, you guys
(18:10):
think you're important being the editorial pages, editorial writers. You
guys have an outsized idea of just how important you
are to people's decisions when it comes to voting. Because
he also says presidential endorsements do nothing to tip the
scales of an election. No undecided voter in Pennsylvania is
going to say I'm going with newspaper a's endorsement.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
It speaks to where we are at with the media.
Back when let's say Ronald Reagan was running for president
in nineteen eighty four. Let's say you didn't know where
the papers were going to come down. I mean I
didn't live. I mean I was alive, but I was
(18:55):
a toddler. But when I was reading about this, you
kind of didn't really know where they were Calm down.
An endorsement was like, oh, okay, the San Francisco Cross
and I don't know, the Chicago Tribune endorses Ronald Reagan.
Oh okay, so the Tribune is going to endorse Reagan. Okay,
you didn't know going into it. Of course they're going
to endorse Reagan or whoever. It's not a shock anymore
(19:19):
who the papers are going to endorse. And that shows
you where we're at in terms of the biased papers.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
So if the newspapers by and large, especially those major
city newspapers, are almost always going to endorse the Democratic candidate,
but the polls show that were split almost fifty to fifty,
something's wrong.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
In exactly and they're not getting that exactly. No more
politics for a while, okay, but the big news of
the day, it is a fist ball. It's ripped down
the line. It is gone.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
A fifth consecutive World Series game with a Freddie Freeman Homer.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
On that was in the first inning last night in
the Bronx.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Tim Kate's host of Kate's and Sacks in the morning.
You guys gonna make this a permanent thing. I wish
I do too. I do not miss the other guy.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
By the way, when the government gets something right, just
keep doing it right. Like this whole homelessness thing. They
figured it out.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Clearly. What the issue is not that everybody's on drugs
and alcohol for no and let's just stick our ahead
in the sand and not treat any of their freaking addictions.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Now, my question for the parade that's coming to LA
in the next couple of days when the Dodgers win
this World Series, will they go on streets that are
just filled with like RVs and homeless or they like
divert the parade around those streets that don't have That
would be pretty funny.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
They'll clean it up. I'm assuming it'll be a Dodger
stadium something like that. Yeah, okay, so we are in
parade planning mode right now. The Yankees have not materialized.
Aaron Judge has not materialized, but you could argue that
show hey a time, he is not materialized. Yet other
guys are stepping up. You're not seeing that with the Yankees.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yeah, everybody wants to say, where's Aaron Judge? How come
Aaron Judge hasn't done anything? Well, how about we credit
the Dodger pitching, Yeah, a little bit. Their starting pitchers
era under two. Meanwhile, the era for the Yankee starting
pitchers through three games is six. And that was supposed
to be their strength. Our Dodger bullpen was supposed to
be the strength against the Yankees bullpen. But now everything
has been dominated by the Dodger starting pitching bullpen defense,
(21:27):
which we're not talking a lot about. Last night, in
the fourth, any Walker Bueller's sort of walking that tight
rope a little bit. Maybe the Yankees get back into
this game. Mookie Best makes a diving catching right That
was incredible throw by ta Oscar at.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Home to get a stands. My knees got skinned watching
that play, like I felt the burn. I felt the
turf burn on my legs when he made that catch.
Walker Bueller was freaking filthy, stud filthy, what a stud?
Last night? Five shutout Indians. I loved watching that three
(21:59):
game threes.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
He's now pitched in eighteen twenty and now twenty twenty four,
and his era is point five to zero in those
three starts.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
That's incredible. They win last night.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Great defense behind him, as we talked about, but he
didn't give up a hit until the fourth inning. Had
a high pitch count, a lot of three to two count,
a lot of pitch counts that went deep in the
first and second. Anybody got out of those with strikeouts
and swinging and misses. I mean, what can you say
a guy who's gonna be a free agent at the
end of this World Series run? You know, I can't
see him not wearing a Dodger uniform. But then again,
he may cash out and go somewhere and be a
(22:30):
big time pitcher somewhere else.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Couldn't he cash out here? He could?
Speaker 4 (22:34):
But you know, the Dodgers have a lot of starting
pitching coming off the injured list potentially next year. Clayton
kershaw Tony Gonsolino, Tyler, Tyler Glass.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Now there's four starters right there.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Yeah, to your point with the three to two pitches,
Clayate discipline is important and it's great and it matters,
but the Yankees offense is just not there. So it's
just a non factor. And where did it go?
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I mean, that's the thing is if it felt like, okay,
the first game they didn't show up. The second game, okay,
well maybe they didn't show up. It almost felt like
they were someone was gonna have a breakthrough last night.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Right expecting that tonight, Like I'm still waiting. I feel
like the fireworks are gonna happen tonight. Steve Sack says,
it's a sleeping bear.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
You don't want to wake up that Yankees offense, in
particular Aaron Judge, because if he gets a hit, he
gets a home run, all of a sudden, the crowd's
back into it, all of a sudden stands back in.
Rizzo starts getting hits again, the bottom of the line
up starts getting on base with the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
You don't want to see that happen.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Did you hear the story about Rizzo's pregame talk to
everybody yesterday?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (23:34):
That before after Fat Joe's performance, it was it would
have been before.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
It was that Anthony Rizzo did the same thing for
the Cubs back in twenty sixteen. Player only meeting he
gets up again. This is This was from one of
the one of the it was either Tom Berducci, Ken Rosenthal,
one of those guys, said Anthony Rizzo gets up and
starts telling jokes with no clothes on.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I was gonna say, there's gotta be some weird naked that's.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Going on, and that that powered the Cubs to a
win in twenty sixteen or something like it was the weirdest.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
I'm really glad we're not James in here.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
Yeah, I've always heard it was Jason Hayward back in
twenty sixteen that spearheaded the Cubs in that World Series,
especially during the rain delay against the Guardians right year. Naked,
not naked. It was just a speech that he gave
as a veteran. But that's interesting. Yeah, it was a funny.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
You know, you think of baseball bods. He kind of
has that baseball body. It's like, you know, no butt,
just you know big. I never noticed his body.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
He doesn't look like Judge or Stanton. He looks the
opposite of that. Well, those guys look like those guys
look like defensive ends.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
They don't look like.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
You're a baseball guy. Gary, how slow was Stantony?
Speaker 2 (24:45):
He said, the first thing I said on the show
today was he he was running like an oil tanker?
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Right, How was that happen? Are you not on your
high horse just going as fast as you can? Is
Anthony Rizzo got some stems? I mean he's got going
full stead well, I mean, man, maybe he was going
fun and that's all he's got. That's embarrassing if that's
the case. I have a quick question about show Hay's
injury with the shoulder. Is that something that potentially would
(25:12):
need to be operated on.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
He was asked that last night and he said that
they'll figure that out after the World Series is over.
He didn't say yes, he didn't say no. It sounds
like they're going to try to figure it out because
if he does have surgery. Cody Bellinger had that same
surgery after twenty seventeen. I made that the twenty twenty
World Series in the Dome where he he hurt his shoulder, Yeah,
high fighting with Kik. He actually had surgery that offseason
(25:34):
a month later and it was a ten week comeback.
And he wasn't right in twenty eighteen or twenty twenty one.
Excuse me, he was never right. So you hope that
if he doesn't have to have surgery, that's a good case.
It is his non throwing shoulder, which is good, but
still still you don't want him now having to rehab
something else.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Right, and you make it, and you know how it is,
even if it's you're not throwing shoulder, You're still going
to make adjustments to your pitch based on right, what's
in your head and what pains. I think it affected
him last night and is it bad hit my pitch? Yeah?
It was.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
It was pretty great that Freddie Freeman didn't make him
run around the bases, I mean with the home run
because he was.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Holding his jersey.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
That was the thing, is like he's holding his jersey
so that to kind of take some pressure off of
the shoulder while he's doing it.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
But he just gets to jog at that point. You
guys think they close it out tonight? Is this a
sweep tonight?
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Four games?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I don't know. Yes, we got a parade to get
ready for y you guys aren't into it parades.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Yeah, I'm not a big parade person. You guys want
to be part of the coverage on I do want
to be part of the coverage. I'll listen to the coverage.
Can I have a roll?
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Absolutely? I'd be fantastic. Have you walk along one of
the buses or something. No, you want to be in
the bus.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
I want to be on the air. Oh calling the parade?
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Yeah okay, Thanks Tim, Thanks guys, you've been listening to

on demand on the iHeartRadio app. That was my name.
You can't take my name, damn it. You can call
me the Fawns. Stop it. Six.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I was six. I love His real name was Arthur.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Did anybody call you Fonsie per your request? No?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Did you tell yourse you're wearing a leather jacket though
I think that's appropriate for did you yes?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Did you ask your parents, hey, call me fons.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I just floated the idea. It wasn't really a request.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
What was their reaction? They didn't look up. They didn't
look up. They didn't look up. Wasn't that a simpler
time when our parents just ignored us. We could talk.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I didn't care at all, When you could say something like, hey, guys,
I'm gonna do a show.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
If you guys don't mind, I'm just gonna.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Do a little thing right here, a little skit right
and then nobody would look at anything.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Is that why we do what we do? Because they
are par for so long? Probably? All right?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Gary and Shannon k if I Am six forty Live
everywhere on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
App What are the Yankees going to be? The Yankees? Like,
it's kind of not even fair at this point. They
look awful.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I saw Alex Rodriguez on TV this morning and he
was trying to explain what it's going to take for
the Yankees to come back and win. I mean, first
of all, history making would be you know that that
would help, But hey, win one game, just win one,
you get that's the's the way you start.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I was listening to Rogan and Rodney yesterday on the
way home and they were talking about the idiots that
are like, no, I want them to win it here.
It's like, no, you don't. If you're a fan, you
want them who cares where? It doesn't matter where. Let
the sweeping the Yankees winning in New York, that would
be poetry.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
It'd be great to be able to celebrate in the
damn thing.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, that would be a big win for them.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
So that's silliness. But that game is tonight. Last night
they won four to two, so Game four is tonight.
They have the opportunity to sweep and to put an
end to this baseball season. We'll see if that happens,
but it is a bullpen game. I believe for the
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Tonight, Walker Bueller Man, you look great. Wow, that was incredible.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
They said something like the Yankees looked at twenty four
four seam fastball strikes last night, which, because we know
too much about statistics now, that's the second most for
any team all season long, looking at the four seam
fastballs and for the most part, that's the straightest ball
that can be thrown.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Well. Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver what they're calling
her campaign's closing argument today from the same spot in
Washington where former President Trump. Gosh, the god that even
that ap it's awful. I know exactly so where where
former President Donald Trump helped incite a mob that attacked
(03:01):
the capital on January sixth. To this point, we are
going to get to it later this hour, but the
coverage Trump versus Harris has been the most lopsided ever. Yeah,
it's crazy, and it just it makes me very angry
with the media the way things are written. This is
(03:22):
a case in point.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Well, it goes back also to what we were talking
about the last couple of days with the La Times
in the Washington Post and them deciding not to do
presidential or not to endorse a candidate in the presidential
race this year, and Jeff Bezos wrote a notp ed
piece that I didn't see it until this morning, and
it was basically, hey, listen, we have an awful reputation.
We the media are getting absolutely destroyed because everybody knows
(03:47):
our hand before we play it. So maybe we pull
back a little bit. Maybe we make an effort to
make sure that all of the viewpoints in America are
covered before we write stuff in our newspaper.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Also, he said that they didn't endorse a candidate until
nineteen seventy six. Also a thing again we talk.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
We grew up at a time when endorsements came from
newspaper editorial boards, I mean, until the La Times didn't
do it this time. I just thought that was something
that always happened.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
It's not.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
It's not something that always happened.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
And I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I mean, Jeff Bezos also makes the point who cares who?
Who waits at home until the Washington Post publishes their
endorsement and goes, I know, that's exactly what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
I'm gonna vote the way the Washington Post wants me
to if you read the La Times and you read
the Washington Post, do you know damn well would they endorse?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
And that's part of his point is like, we're not
surprising anybody, We're not doing anything. So you mentioned Vice
President Harris at the National Mall tonight. I think it's
about four thirty our time is when that is planned.
Former President Trump has been giving a speech in Palm
Beach down at mar A Lago ben It's about an
hour long now, and he's touched on a immigration, he's
(05:01):
touched on the economy, he's touched on the exit from Afghanistan.
And the assumption is he's going to take some questions.
At least that's why it was pitched. So we're actually
recording it and to see if he is asked any
questions about, for example, Madison Square Garden. He then travels
to Pennsylvania for a couple of events later tonight.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
He said this morning that Harris will have to go
home and get herself a job someplace. Who knows. Oh.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Speaking of the Harris thing, Joe Rogan has said that
it's not still not off the table, but that the
Harris campaign wanted him to travel to her to go
to DC and would only offer her up for an
hour long conversation for his podcast, as opposed to the
three hours.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
That he spent with Donald Trump in Austin. I wish
there was more of this across the board. Really, how
are everyday people affected? Trump today? Featuring speakers who were
harmed by policies under this administration. Tammy Nobles is one
of them, talked about the death of her daughter, the
perpetrator MS thirteen gang member in the country illegally. Michael Copy,
(06:10):
owner of a dry cleaner place, Go Green Dry Cleaners,
talked about how he and other small businesses are unable
to keep up with inflation. Christy Shamblin daughter in law,
Marine Sergeant Nicole Gee killed during that chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
If we could have real people talk about how things
(06:30):
affect them, it's better than Harris and Trump both calling
each other fascists and pointing fingers.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Which is funny because his speaking pattern, and we've talked
about it before, is almost incoherent. I mean, trying to
follow this guy's speech pattern is very, very diffinct. He's
a weaver because he's weaving. But when these family members
of people who are killed or small business owners get
up and speak on his behalf. I guess you'd say
on his behalf, or at least against the Biden Harris administration.
(06:58):
It's a much more coherent argument. And if tonight's speech
from Vice President Harris is supposed to be her closing argument,
this is very much or could be taken as his
closing argument. It's on his territory, it's on his turf
kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
He walked out to Michael Jackson's thriller. Apparently that's been
a mainstay at many of his campaign rallies. Odd choice,
do you think he does the dance? That'd be very funny.
So the Harris Walls campaign will be running an ad
on the exterior of the Sphere in Las Vegas, referred
to as the Exosphere. It's going to launch today, we'll
(07:34):
continue through election day. It appears to be the majority
of the ball The sphere is blue, a big picture
of Kamala there on that Some of her key messages
will spin in rotation, such as vote for opportunity, vote
for a new way forward, makes it clear to vote
(07:55):
by November fifth. First time a political campaign has ever
been activated on the exosphere. They got all kinds of money,
they might as well throw it so sure, how much
do you think that costs? No? I couldn't even We
should take We should do a Gary and Shannon show
add on the sphere, just.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Do like our big circle, just lay it over it
like it's a yeah or just a big eyeball that
looks We should start a GoFundMe for that, or just
ask them. Maybe they'll do it for free, you know,
on and off day like maybe November sixth, they won't
have any more political ads to run.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Maybe that's when we start the garyon Shannon ad. Maybe
maybe so.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Tony Hinchcliffe was the comedian who at Madison Square Garden
on Sunday Night caused everybody's heads to explode when he
launched into a series of tasteless jokes.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
The more I think about the Puerto Rico thing, the
more what an unforced error. Who asked for a joke
about Puerto Rico? Right again, it's just dumb. It's not
the payoffs not there, It's not worth it. Why would you?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Why would you have a roast comedian come and do
your show? But I found an interesting ally, perhaps of
Tony Hinchcliff and that was Jon Stewart on The Daily Show.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Now, obviously in retrospect, having a roast comedian come to
a political rally a week before election day and roasting
a key voting demographic probably not the best decision by
the campaign politically, But to be fair, the guy's really
just doing what he does.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
He goes on it plays a series of jokes from
the Tom Brady roast, yes, which I can't I'm not
going to play.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
That was a dirty, dirty, dirty roast. But he killed it.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I mean, everybody was cracking up at his stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
There's something wrong with me.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I find that guy Verry Fonny. So I'm sorry. I
don't know what to tell you, Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
I mean bringing him to a rally and have him
not do roast jokes. That'd be like bringing Beyonce to
a rally and not.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Okay, we need to talk about that too, because the
way the whole Beyonce event was billed was that she'd
be performing. It was going to be this massive event.
You're you're rolling out Beyonce like this is the biggest thing.
Beyonce did not perform. She got up there and she
talked for about a minute about the importance of voting
(10:12):
in the election. Hey, look who's on the Today Show.
It's Reba McIntyre. Your shame, Tom Brady. By the way,
there she is. Is losing it, tom Brady. He's losing
it because Giselle is pregnant with the jiu jitsu, the
jude zitsu jiu jitsu. Yes, yes, instructors baby.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
So tom Brady's posting these like stories on social media,
like pictures of sunsets with the lyrics to landslide, Mirror
in the sky, what is love? Yes, he is. He's
losing it. He's totally cracking up. Can a child in
my heart rise above all? That was his hold on
a second, I saw that Yeah on TV. Connection to
(11:02):
that was his. He doesn't have a friend that reaches
out and is like, hey, bro, take that down?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Which phone down? Looks awful after you read this text,
put your phone down. So yes, the question about what
happened with the Beyonce thing in Houston. Everybody was touting
it as it was going to be a Beyonce performance
of some kind freedom.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
So does that mean that the campaign.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Told members of the media that it was going to
be a performer or did the media assume or did
the media assume? We got caught up in that in
Chicago during the Democratic National Convention because everybody was talking
about what the surprise guest was going to be. Was
it going to be Taylor Swift on Thursday night? Was
it going to be Beyonce on Thursday night? And there
were people sending pictures to us of random personal jets
(11:56):
that were landing at O'Hare Airport or Chicago Midway and
saying that's Taylor Swift's airplane.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
No or or or And this is the worst the.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
The more conspiratorial view of it is the campaigns colluded
with the media outlets in Houston and other places to
try to draw people to what Beyonce concert? Oh to
draw and then you get to show, here's this huge
arena packed to the rafters for a free rally, when
(12:31):
actually they were there to go.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
See a Beyonce show, all right, coming up next.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I don't think anybody's going to see I don't think
anyone's packing an arena to go see Lee Greenwood. Although
I know he's a good artist, but he's not He's
not packing him in to a How dare you?
Speaker 1 (12:48):
How dare I? Am also to be an American. It
doesn't sound like it. It doesn't sound like it right now. Hey,
if you want to go live in Canada, fine, but
don't come here to America with that kind of attitude.
Lee Greenwood would black in political rallies with Anne Murray.
Dare you is she still alive? I don't know, I'll
(13:09):
google it. Also, I found out how much we need
to raise to rent out the sphere. Okay, so the
sphere features three to four brands each day. Adds appear
every few seconds for about four hours total of screen time.
If we wanted to get in on this putting up
the Gary and Shannon logo on the sphere the day
(13:30):
after the election, it would cost us roughly four hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. Okay, So that's how much we'd
need to raise on our GoFundMe.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
All right, Well, I'm not blinking at that. I feel
like that's about what I would have guessed.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
You think that's doable.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I don't know if I would say doable. Are you
actually going to put that in the American postal system?
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
It looks like you're mailing a blood sample to a
mid Saharan country.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Does it really? Is this the original packaging?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Okay, but you you can't put that much tape on
it because they're not gonna be able to read the label.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Oh, I guess you can, right, it's clear tape.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Yeah, Bro, I don't say clear, but it's clear.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Governor Newsom is holding a news conference downtown LA right
now talking about Hey, guess what more homeless funding hundreds
of millions of dollars flowing from the state to local
agencies to Oh wait, we've.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Done this repeatedly, talk positions. We have money on homeless,
millions billions of dollars that they can't figure it right, No,
because they don't know how to spend the money. They
don't know how to address a problem. There's too many
cooks in the kitchen. Money is not the issue when
it comes to homelessness. Wait, so then why is he
then going to get it? Because he's a horse's ass
(14:56):
dollars And.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
We've talked about how the endorsements are now disappearing from newspapers,
although there are places where it never actually happened. The
La Times, of course, we documented that story last week
about how the owner Patrick Sohnschong permitted the Biden endorsement
from four years ago, but did not allow the editorial
(15:21):
page to post an endorsement in the presidential election. He
says it was because they didn't do their homework. He
had required of the editorial page workers to put together
arguments for and against, and he said that never happened,
so he wasn't going to allow them to put an
endorsement in.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Here's part of the problem, I think. In twenty twenty,
the La Times published and opinion piece by its editorial
board titled endorsement. Joe Biden isn't just anybody but Trump.
He's the right fit for our polarized time. Kamala Harris
is anybody but Trump. That's exactly what she is, right.
(15:58):
Joe Biden had a lengthy decade. It's long career in Washington,
able to reach across the aisle, had the relationships, forged
the bonds to get things done in Washington. He really did.
She doesn't have any of that. She's just anybody but Trump.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
And Democratic voters already had a chance to elevate her
to somewhere near the top of the party and they
decided against her. When she was in the primary. She
didn't even make it to the Iowa CAUCUSUS.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Now, she may get the job, and she may start
building those relationships and forging those bonds in Washington, she
may knock it out of the park. But she hasn't
done that yet. And to say that she has, or
that she is at the level that Joe Biden was
when they endorsed Joe Biden, it's just being disingenuous to yourself.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
The USA Today took the unusual step of backing Biden
in twenty twenty in the for the first time ever
they got involved in endorsing of a presidential candidate. That's
the USA Today been around for decades now and had
never done a presidential endorsement before. The Sun Sentinel out
of South Florida, the main newspaper in the Fort Lauderdale
(17:06):
Broward County area, endorse Biden in twenty twenty, but has
said that they will not endorse a presidential candidate in
twenty twenty four, in line with a policy change that
they made a couple of years ago. And then obviously
the Washington Post, we talked about the Washington Post deciding
against having any endorsement and Jeff Bezos, just like in
(17:28):
the La Times situation. Jeff Bezos, the owner of the paper,
was the one that stepped in and put the kibosh
on this thing, and he said, we must be accurate.
Speaking of newspapers, we must be accurate. We must be
believed to be accurate. It is a bitter pill to swallow,
(17:48):
but we are failing on the second requirement. The owner
of the newspaper smells what the rock is cooking, which
is people have questioned the credibility of our our main
news sources that have existed for decades, and that's why
they're turning to alternative media in many cases. And Jeff
Bezos knows that. And what he's saying is, you guys
(18:10):
think you're important being the editorial pages, editorial writers. You
guys have an outsized idea of just how important you
are to people's decisions when it comes to voting. Because
he also says presidential endorsements do nothing to tip the
scales of an election. No undecided voter in Pennsylvania is
going to say I'm going with newspaper a's endorsement.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
It speaks to where we are at with the media.
Back when let's say Ronald Reagan was running for president
in nineteen eighty four. Let's say you didn't know where
the papers were going to come down. I mean I
didn't live. I mean I was alive, but I was
(18:55):
a toddler. But when I was reading about this, you
kind of didn't really know where they were Calm down.
An endorsement was like, oh, okay, the San Francisco Cross
and I don't know, the Chicago Tribune endorses Ronald Reagan.
Oh okay, so the Tribune is going to endorse Reagan. Okay,
you didn't know going into it. Of course they're going
to endorse Reagan or whoever. It's not a shock anymore
(19:19):
who the papers are going to endorse. And that shows
you where we're at in terms of the biased papers.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
So if the newspapers by and large, especially those major
city newspapers, are almost always going to endorse the Democratic candidate,
but the polls show that were split almost fifty to fifty,
something's wrong.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
In exactly and they're not getting that exactly. No more
politics for a while, okay, but the big news of
the day, it is a fist ball. It's ripped down
the line. It is gone.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
A fifth consecutive World Series game with a Freddie Freeman Homer.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
On that was in the first inning last night in
the Bronx.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Tim Kate's host of Kate's and Sacks in the morning.
You guys gonna make this a permanent thing. I wish
I do too. I do not miss the other guy.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
By the way, when the government gets something right, just
keep doing it right. Like this whole homelessness thing. They
figured it out.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Clearly. What the issue is not that everybody's on drugs
and alcohol for no and let's just stick our ahead
in the sand and not treat any of their freaking addictions.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Now, my question for the parade that's coming to LA
in the next couple of days when the Dodgers win
this World Series, will they go on streets that are
just filled with like RVs and homeless or they like
divert the parade around those streets that don't have That
would be pretty funny.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
They'll clean it up. I'm assuming it'll be a Dodger
stadium something like that. Yeah, okay, so we are in
parade planning mode right now. The Yankees have not materialized.
Aaron Judge has not materialized, but you could argue that
show hey a time, he is not materialized. Yet other
guys are stepping up. You're not seeing that with the Yankees.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yeah, everybody wants to say, where's Aaron Judge? How come
Aaron Judge hasn't done anything? Well, how about we credit
the Dodger pitching, Yeah, a little bit. Their starting pitchers
era under two. Meanwhile, the era for the Yankee starting
pitchers through three games is six. And that was supposed
to be their strength. Our Dodger bullpen was supposed to
be the strength against the Yankees bullpen. But now everything
has been dominated by the Dodger starting pitching bullpen defense,
(21:27):
which we're not talking a lot about. Last night, in
the fourth, any Walker Bueller's sort of walking that tight
rope a little bit. Maybe the Yankees get back into
this game. Mookie Best makes a diving catching right That
was incredible throw by ta Oscar at.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Home to get a stands. My knees got skinned watching
that play, like I felt the burn. I felt the
turf burn on my legs when he made that catch.
Walker Bueller was freaking filthy, stud filthy, what a stud?
Last night? Five shutout Indians. I loved watching that three
(21:59):
game threes.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
He's now pitched in eighteen twenty and now twenty twenty four,
and his era is point five to zero in those
three starts.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
That's incredible. They win last night.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Great defense behind him, as we talked about, but he
didn't give up a hit until the fourth inning. Had
a high pitch count, a lot of three to two count,
a lot of pitch counts that went deep in the
first and second. Anybody got out of those with strikeouts
and swinging and misses. I mean, what can you say
a guy who's gonna be a free agent at the
end of this World Series run? You know, I can't
see him not wearing a Dodger uniform. But then again,
he may cash out and go somewhere and be a
(22:30):
big time pitcher somewhere else.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Couldn't he cash out here? He could?
Speaker 4 (22:34):
But you know, the Dodgers have a lot of starting
pitching coming off the injured list potentially next year. Clayton
kershaw Tony Gonsolino, Tyler, Tyler Glass.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Now there's four starters right there.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Yeah, to your point with the three to two pitches,
Clayate discipline is important and it's great and it matters,
but the Yankees offense is just not there. So it's
just a non factor. And where did it go?
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I mean, that's the thing is if it felt like, okay,
the first game they didn't show up. The second game, okay,
well maybe they didn't show up. It almost felt like
they were someone was gonna have a breakthrough last night.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Right expecting that tonight, Like I'm still waiting. I feel
like the fireworks are gonna happen tonight. Steve Sack says,
it's a sleeping bear.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
You don't want to wake up that Yankees offense, in
particular Aaron Judge, because if he gets a hit, he
gets a home run, all of a sudden, the crowd's
back into it, all of a sudden stands back in.
Rizzo starts getting hits again, the bottom of the line
up starts getting on base with the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
You don't want to see that happen.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Did you hear the story about Rizzo's pregame talk to
everybody yesterday?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (23:34):
That before after Fat Joe's performance, it was it would
have been before.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
It was that Anthony Rizzo did the same thing for
the Cubs back in twenty sixteen. Player only meeting he
gets up again. This is This was from one of
the one of the it was either Tom Berducci, Ken Rosenthal,
one of those guys, said Anthony Rizzo gets up and
starts telling jokes with no clothes on.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I was gonna say, there's gotta be some weird naked that's.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Going on, and that that powered the Cubs to a
win in twenty sixteen or something like it was the weirdest.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
I'm really glad we're not James in here.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
Yeah, I've always heard it was Jason Hayward back in
twenty sixteen that spearheaded the Cubs in that World Series,
especially during the rain delay against the Guardians right year. Naked,
not naked. It was just a speech that he gave
as a veteran. But that's interesting. Yeah, it was a funny.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
You know, you think of baseball bods. He kind of
has that baseball body. It's like, you know, no butt,
just you know big. I never noticed his body.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
He doesn't look like Judge or Stanton. He looks the
opposite of that. Well, those guys look like those guys
look like defensive ends.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
They don't look like.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
You're a baseball guy. Gary, how slow was Stantony?
Speaker 2 (24:45):
He said, the first thing I said on the show
today was he he was running like an oil tanker?
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Right, How was that happen? Are you not on your
high horse just going as fast as you can? Is
Anthony Rizzo got some stems? I mean he's got going
full stead well, I mean, man, maybe he was going
fun and that's all he's got. That's embarrassing if that's
the case. I have a quick question about show Hay's
injury with the shoulder. Is that something that potentially would
(25:12):
need to be operated on.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
He was asked that last night and he said that
they'll figure that out after the World Series is over.
He didn't say yes, he didn't say no. It sounds
like they're going to try to figure it out because
if he does have surgery. Cody Bellinger had that same
surgery after twenty seventeen. I made that the twenty twenty
World Series in the Dome where he he hurt his shoulder, Yeah,
high fighting with Kik. He actually had surgery that offseason
(25:34):
a month later and it was a ten week comeback.
And he wasn't right in twenty eighteen or twenty twenty one.
Excuse me, he was never right. So you hope that
if he doesn't have to have surgery, that's a good case.
It is his non throwing shoulder, which is good, but
still still you don't want him now having to rehab
something else.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Right, and you make it, and you know how it is,
even if it's you're not throwing shoulder, You're still going
to make adjustments to your pitch based on right, what's
in your head and what pains. I think it affected
him last night and is it bad hit my pitch? Yeah?
It was.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
It was pretty great that Freddie Freeman didn't make him
run around the bases, I mean with the home run
because he was.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Holding his jersey.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
That was the thing, is like he's holding his jersey
so that to kind of take some pressure off of
the shoulder while he's doing it.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
But he just gets to jog at that point. You
guys think they close it out tonight? Is this a
sweep tonight?
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Four games?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I don't know. Yes, we got a parade to get
ready for y you guys aren't into it parades.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
Absolutely? I'd be fantastic. Have you walk along one of
the buses or something. No, you want to be in
the bus.
