Speaker 2 (00:18):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
We can't do it alone, John Ramos this year, so
is Jason Stewart. It was fight weekend. It wasn't supposed

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Someone here couldn't stand the Jake Paul Nate dis fight.
We'll get that in fifteen minutes or so here on
Fox Sports Radio. I'm not saying if it was John Ramos,
I'm not saying if it was Jason Stewart. I'm not
saying if it was me or Manzibalanios. But you'll find
out in about fifteen twenty minutes or so. Who hated
that fight? I think I think that we all loved

(01:06):
this fight that occurred Saturday, Not in Las Vegas, not
in a ring, not in an octagon. It happened at second.

Speaker 5 (01:16):
Base and another household double right over the bag at first.

Speaker 6 (01:20):
Now Hosey and Anderson square off. They're fighting, They're swinging.
Down goes Anderson, Down goes Anderson. Ramirez went in with
a head first slide. Hosey never gets upset about anything.

(01:40):
They came up chewing.

Speaker 5 (01:42):
Anderson squared off, Hosey dectum. It's a five to one
Chicago lead, but everybody from the Dugouts and the Bullpence
congregated around second base. You never see Jose Ramirez get
up set like that.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Amazing Tom Hamilton, Guardians Radio Network with the call so good.
It was so good that I thought it first because
I saw the scuffle and I thought he was just
doing a you know, down goes Frasier. Yeah, but then
on goes Crazia, goes Crasia. I did not realize that

(02:27):
Anderson went down. And then I sawed every nagel and
I'm like, that made it entirely one hundred times even
better because I thought he was mocking the fight, and
then Tim Anderson does go down and it's it was
such a crazy situation and we'll get into the ramifications
in a little bit, but to have someone square up.

Speaker 7 (02:49):
Literally yes, literally, oh we're gonna do it down.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
Uh, the umpire steps up in his best Mills Lane
impersonation and just lets a go.

Speaker 7 (03:00):
Best part that the umpire was like, all right, I'm
not gonna involved in this.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
I thought he honestly broke them up and was like
all right, let's go and brought him together again to go.

Speaker 8 (03:09):
Yeah, he was like in a ring.

Speaker 7 (03:11):
He's like, and go, you guys square off.

Speaker 8 (03:14):
I that call. That guy deserves an Emmy. The way
he gave up play by play in that moment amazing.

Speaker 7 (03:21):
I don't know if I would have been that clever
and that's smart in the moment.

Speaker 8 (03:24):
That was so good.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Kevin Harlan gets a lot of a lot of praise
for some of the stuff that he'll do on NFL
broadcast is good. I was able to Yeah, I was
able to mix it up. But you know, Hamilton's done
it for such a long time. His voice is so
distinctive and it's so cleveland and it's so it's so
right for the call. It wouldn't have honestly, and it
wouldn't have been the same if it was vice versa,
Tim Anderson knocking out Jose Ramirez. Unfortunately for Tim Anderson. Uh,

(03:50):
it had to be like that for the for the
betterment of us, John Ramos, you know.

Speaker 9 (03:54):
I just played the Downgos Frasier, which is one of
the most famous calls by Howard Cast in the history
of boxing. But my question to Jason was announced to
you guys, like he said, down goes Anderson. I knew
what he was talking about when he did it. Do
you think a lot of people knew what he was
talking about? Do you didn't know the reference of that
particular famous call. Do you think it was just something
that went over a lot of people's heads.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
I think I think it did go over a lot
of people. Yeah, yes, yes, I do think that because
it has been used before in certain events and people
will make it seem like it's their own. I don't
think as many people realized that, and there's there's a

(04:36):
large I mean we're talking you're talking to millions of people.
But John, to your point, I do think that some
people missed it.

Speaker 8 (04:41):
I agree totally.

Speaker 7 (04:42):
I mean, but that the way he got knocked down,
He didn't fall in the direction of the punch. He
fell because he got knocked out. Yeah, you know, like
it wasn't the punch made him go that way. He
felt because he got knocked out and he fell back.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
They they dragged him Anderson off the field like you
was starring in Weekend at Burn. Come on that it
was it was, it was he had he had it was.
He was supposed to get a three game suspension because
they held up three fingers and he said there were six,
and so then they gave him six. That's why Ramirez

(05:20):
only got three is he knew that there were three.
The jokes can go on and on, and I'm sorry
they are welcome. Yes, I saw some tweets of people
being like, yeah, well you were to Tim Anderson shoes.
You know why because I'm not picking fights with people,
but I know.

Speaker 7 (05:35):
I can't win right And like the way he did it,
it wasn't like a scuffle that we're used to seeing,
where it slowly escalates. You said something, I said something.
We get on each other's faces. You shove me, I
shove you. That's usually how these start. This guy squared
up immediately like we're gonna fight.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
And this is these are name players I know, I know.
This isn't just like this is like we know who
Tim Anderson is, we know who Joseer Ramirez is. Heck,
he's been an MVP candidate, you know over the last
few seasons. Like we know these guys and that's why
this was so heavy. The reason that this is so
heavy is now Tim Anderson and now Jose Ramirez will

(06:15):
be known for this moment throughout their career.

Speaker 7 (06:18):
One. It doesn't help Tim Anderson no more than you
know what I'm saying, Like he has had his issues
over the years, so it doesn't help him. But everyone
obviously is gonna love Ramirez for this because.

Speaker 8 (06:32):
Of that bunch.

Speaker 9 (06:33):
And by the way, Jose Ramirez is an way to me,
way better than Timmy. Yes, he's right excellent, it's an
all star, like one of the top hitters in baseball. Yeah,
what a home run hitter he's I mean, Jason's Derrick
can can attest to this.

Speaker 7 (06:45):
Yeah, Like this only makes Tim Anderson look bad in
comparison to Jay Ramirez. Also, like the White Songs aren't
doing anything here's what are you doing? Like you're not
even You're not even in the postseason, Like, come.

Speaker 8 (06:57):
On, it's it's bad for him.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
He's finished. Jose Ramirez has finished in the top six
in all in MVP voting in five of the last
six years. He was a runner up in twenty twenty,
ended up being sixth, two years ago fourth. He had
some third place finishes prior to that.

Speaker 10 (07:18):
So what good parameter on that Dan is that Jose Ramirez.
People in the know. By in the know, I mean
fantasy players, we're sweating out the suspension news because you
don't want to lose Jose Ramirez. I think Tim Anderson's
been cut by most leagues by now. He's having an
awful season. So me personally, as an Jose Ramirez team owner,

(07:39):
I was sweating out the suspension. I'm glad it's only
three and then they'll it.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Actually, it actually was smart of Anderson to fight Ramirez.
If the White Sox wanted to make up the ten
and a half that they're back of the Guardians or
excuse me, nine and a half, Yeah, let's take out,
they should have fought their whole starting pitching staff and
just gone just gone down the line. I mean, that's
what Tim Anderson could done.

Speaker 9 (08:00):
And to Monsey's point about scuffles, ninety percent of baseball fights,
if you want to call them fights, are really scuffles.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, this was an actual, like attack.

Speaker 9 (08:10):
Like the last time I remember something meaning this maybe
was Nolan Ryan and Robert Ventura were they actually swung
at each.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
Other rugnetto door and Jose Batia all.

Speaker 9 (08:19):
Right, that one, okay, But most of them are just
like you get in your face out getting yours. Nobody
really wants to hit each other. They just kind of
stand there. This was actually like we're gonna.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
Put it down. Other scuffles that happen, and I didn't
see a lot of other scuffling. I thought there was
maybe something here. But like even when Red Sox and
Yankees and almosten Pedro Martinez is throwing Don Zimmer to
the ground, You're like, wait, what's going on here? Like
how is this happening? There wasn't even that because it
was it was these two guys going at it.

Speaker 7 (08:46):
Yeah, like you always hear, oh the bench is cleared
and then you see the incident and it's nothing. It's
very just everyone ran out there to defend their teammates.
This was an actual fight, and I love that it
kind of just let people let it.

Speaker 8 (09:00):
Yeah, umpire, And.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
I don't think like the Tim Anderson's highlight of his
career exist well, it's not the highlight. The highlight of
his career prior to this was the Field of Dreams
when he hits the game winning home run Iowa. Sam
was all over that yesterday here at Fox Sports Radio.
Of course, ers he's bringing that up, but it was

(09:22):
truly like, the point is, the point is well made.
This will completely overshadow it. But I'm even going to
go a step further and say that this is how
Jose Ramirez his career will be looked at. And you're
talking about again, a guy that's finished in the MVP
voting in the top six five out of the last
six seasons. And the reason that I say that is
because of what John Ramos mentioned. Robin Ventura was one

(09:45):
of the top players in college baseball, and I felt
at the time almost college baseball history the hitting streak
he was the young prospect. Baseball cards are such a
hot thing right now. To have a Robin Ventura card
thirty some years ago was a really, really big deal.
It's a guy who had made a couple of All
Star Games ended up going on and managing. But the

(10:06):
only thing that we talk about Robin Ventura about is
him being in a headlocked by Nolan Ryan. That's it.
And again it's a white a White Sox player losing
a fight. They must have the worst record of any
Major League Baseball team and having players actually lose fights
while the Rangers have Odor and Nolan Ryan. Me and
I are like, where the Mike Tyson a major League

(10:29):
Baseball But I go to Nolan Ryan to say this.
Nolan Ryan, no doubt Montsi one of the top pitchers
that baseball has ever seen, seven no hitters in his career,
won a World Series with the Mets in nineteen sixty nine.
Longeogarty known to throw heat. And I would say that
Nolan Ryan is most known now for beating the crap

(10:51):
out of Robin Ventura, right, that is, for all that
he has accomplished. Like at the time, I even remembered
when Robin Ventura ended up charging the mound. You're still like, man,
you're doing that against Nolan Ryan, one of the game's greats,
you know, still one of the guys who can bring
the heat. But he's like, you know, forty something years old,
we're still talking about that time. And I think that

(11:14):
the actual fight and its victory in the fight has
overshadowed what he had done in his career, which was
a Hall of Fame career. And that's why with Anderson
and Ramirez, there's no way that they shake this. When
I see rignat a door, it's the first thing that
comes up and blocking Jose Bautista. I don't see a
lot of Jose Bautista anymore, but I just remember him
right watching his jog, you know, And that's what I

(11:37):
think the lasting image of all of this is.

Speaker 7 (11:39):
I mean, I feel like if we asked Ramirez how
it feels about that, he'd be like, hey, you remember
that I knocked somebody out? Okay, Like at least it's
it's a good A good one, A good a good
thing to remember.

Speaker 8 (11:49):
But you're right, it might you know, push put to
the side. He's hot.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
When I say, Nolan Ryan, what do you think of.

Speaker 7 (11:58):
I mean, I do think of the pitching over the fight,
really I do. I do, maybe because I you know,
when I tour Dodgers and I have to mention pictures
and people, you.

Speaker 8 (12:09):
Know what I mean, Like, I don't go to the
fight for her.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
To be honest, the majority think of.

Speaker 8 (12:13):
The fight, and you're probably right. You are probably right.
I don't.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
I know. There was a piece done on Nolan Ryan
and Netflix. Did you guys see it? Yes?

Speaker 10 (12:22):
I did, I did, Yes, JA, And they did spend
so all the career accomplishments were broken down into what
the Mets Amazing, Mets World series and the no hitters,
and they didn't spend half as much time on each
of those than they did on the Robin Venture thing.
That was a good fifteen to twenty minutes of the
of the documentary, which I think kind of kind of

(12:45):
it's a great barometer for like how much interest that
fight had, I guess accumulated over the years, in the
last thirty to forty years, that this is kind of
one of the standards that he's known by.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
I think, you know, I I'm not shocked. I've not
seen the piece, but that's what I that's what I
go to.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
Like.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
It doesn't mean that it's right, and it doesn't lessen
what Nolan Ryan's done. It just tells you the gravity
of of what these images do they have two guys
squaring up on second base? You don't get that every
year in Major League Baseball. And to see a guy
flattened like Tim Anderson was when he was the one
that seemingly was starting it, Yeah, that's that's what you

(13:29):
don't see. And I just don't know how you shake it.

Speaker 9 (13:31):
Do you think the MLB likes this? Do you think
that they like the fact that these two guys actually,
like Mansie said, you just scuffling, You just just couple pushing,
you know, oh cool everything the bullpens out there now
this guy actually clocked another player.

Speaker 8 (13:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Do you think the MLB?

Speaker 5 (13:48):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
I don't think they enjoy this.

Speaker 8 (13:50):
I don't think they're upset.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
I agree with Mons.

Speaker 8 (13:53):
I don't think they're mad.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
If it happens tonight again and you're like, then they're like,
this is we can have Bernie's too. Exactly exactly, That's
how I think that they view it.

Speaker 7 (14:06):
Bleacher Report retweeted a picture of somebody wearing a jersey.
It looks like a Cleveland Guardians jersey, and it on
the back it says down goes Anderson number eleven, Like
it is a jersey, Down Goes Anderson.

Speaker 8 (14:26):
Obviously is a custom made. But that's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
Who was rolling on that that Fraser Ali fight at
Fox Sports Radio back in the nineteen seventies. That's a
great point. I don't know it was it Bursch or
maybe bo Bnson, Maybe maybe it was maybe it was
Mike Lingard. I'm not sure. Were this good that we
got that audio live? Is there a credit? ABC WireWorld
of Sports?

Speaker 2 (14:47):
Is that?

Speaker 8 (16:06):
I'm so excited. I'm so excited for the song. Did
you guys know the drama behind this song?

Speaker 3 (16:10):
No? Apparently they may have. Yes, Okay, you got knocked out.

Speaker 7 (16:21):
No, there was drama that apparently Taylor Swift stole Katy
Perry's like dancers or something, and so there was bad
blood for a while between Katy Perry and Taylor Swift.

Speaker 8 (16:31):
It came out, but like it wasn't true.

Speaker 7 (16:32):
But her video with this was awesome, Like Selena Gomez
was in it. Olivia Benson, the SVU actress of Marisha
Hardigay Ellen Pompeo, she grabbed like all these badass women
to put in this video, and it was like they
were gonna fight here.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
Since MTV doesn't show videos anymore, how did you see
the sexual video? That's what I'm curious about.

Speaker 7 (16:51):
Yes, you're right, and this is an old video, so
you did have to look it up. But it was
such a big deal because of all the big names
she used that. Everybody was like, you have to watch
Bad Blood and then she had a version with Kendrick Lamar.

Speaker 8 (17:03):
Is that right Kendrick?

Speaker 7 (17:04):
Yes, yes, she had a version of Bad Blood with him,
which is awesome.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Jason, you were okay with this song being played the
other or not.

Speaker 10 (17:11):
I was just telling John there's a disconnect with me
and Taylor Swift songs and that one might be the
biggest one. I never got it. So we're alike Monty,
of all the songs in her entire catalog, what do
you want to what do you want to bump back
with her? And she said bad blood and this is
I think this is a perfect example of how I'm
I'm nowhere near the Taylor Swift fans. I don't get it.

(17:34):
I don't get the tune, I don't get I don't
get the story behind it and all that's I just
don't get it. And I don't I want to ran
on our prey because she's going to the concert tonight.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
Oh no.

Speaker 10 (17:42):
It's a great example of how I guess old and
out of touch I am. I thought, it's basically what
I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (17:46):
I mean, you're not a you know, thirty year old
girl exactly.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
I'm not.

Speaker 8 (17:51):
I'm not offended you.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
My wife's a little bit older. And she was wrapped
up in all of these tiktoks. Yeah, and she's like,
I want to go, And then she was on a
call with her friend. They're like, how do we try
to find tickets? And then you're looking at the secondary market,
and then the whole conversation that comes in is are

(18:14):
there any favors that you can cash in? And there
really aren't, because honestly, if you are giving tickets to someone,
this is like a there was a first line, there
isn't you know, Hey, I remember you from twenty years back?
Can you get us tickets? That's not that's not going
to happen.

Speaker 7 (18:30):
Yeah, no, literally, I was like, who could I possibly.

Speaker 8 (18:33):
Reach out to to help me out?

Speaker 12 (18:35):
No?

Speaker 7 (18:35):
Everybody, I know. It's like, no, could you want tickets
to a sports game?

Speaker 3 (18:39):
Where are your seats?

Speaker 11 (18:41):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (18:41):
With Jesus, with Jesus, with Jesus.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
Aaron Torres and I were in the last row at
the College Football National Championship Game at so Far. Yeah,
we were closer to the TCU campus than the TCU sideline.

Speaker 7 (19:00):
But you know that the stadium is so ginormous that
I feel like, no matter where you sit one person
in the middle of that giant stadium, you can't really
see her anyway.

Speaker 8 (19:11):
So don't lie to me. It's a huge stadium.

Speaker 9 (19:14):
Yeah, I think more people watch the actual show from
the screen. Right, that's she looks like a little aunt, right, great, hondle.

Speaker 10 (19:24):
What's the etiquette, by the way, I see again on
TikTok and stuff?

Speaker 3 (19:28):
What do you wear?

Speaker 10 (19:29):
There are friendship bracelets or something? What do you need
to bring? What's the requisite as a fan?

Speaker 8 (19:35):
I'm not doing that, but yes, yes, that is the thing.

Speaker 7 (19:38):
No I am I am just I just went and
got a Taylor Swift shirt with my favorite album on it.

Speaker 8 (19:43):
That's all I'm doing. But the Yeah, you went to
the Yes, it's like, can you make this a glitter
on it?

Speaker 3 (19:49):
You went to the kiosk that is Tuac and.

Speaker 8 (19:52):
Exactly right next to it, right next there.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
Wait, what did you say?

Speaker 10 (19:57):
Brothers?

Speaker 9 (19:58):
Then they would put together. You bring them a picture
and they would put together like a frame to it.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yeah. Yeah, you're the business any they're not in business all. Sorry,
waiting to stomp on them when they're done, they're no longer.

(20:24):
you for the Jake Paul Nate Diaz fight, Manzi? Where
were you watching that? The place in.

Speaker 8 (20:29):
Where was I watching that? Are you kidding me?

Speaker 7 (20:32):
I would not have spent one second, one dime, not
a breath on that fight.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
The curtain is revealed. Mancy's the one with the problem
on the Jake Paul.

Speaker 8 (20:44):
What are we impressed about here?

Speaker 7 (20:46):
A former YouTuber that has money, comes from money, is
able to pay all of these trainers, and then he's
fighting retired old you have see fighters Nate Diaz.

Speaker 8 (21:02):
Did he even.

Speaker 3 (21:03):
Train The appeal is, though, is it's you're coming at
it from a different angle because you obviously don't like
Jake Paul.

Speaker 11 (21:11):
I don't.

Speaker 8 (21:12):
I didn't have anything to I don't know anything about
him aside the.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
Fact that she just drag him through the mud for
thirty seconds.

Speaker 7 (21:17):
It's I just don't understand how this is not ruining boxing.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
Because it's not boxing.

Speaker 8 (21:24):
He's making it out to be like it is.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
Well, that's he's not fighting boxers. If he were, if
he were to fight boxers, he wouldn't be winning fights.

Speaker 8 (21:33):
And that's my whole point.

Speaker 7 (21:34):
It's like, you're not fighting anybody that is real in their.

Speaker 8 (21:38):
Prime in their sports.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
Sure, so why are we.

Speaker 8 (21:41):
Giving anybody anyone money for this?

Speaker 3 (21:44):
I hope that he is going to get a Jose
Ramirez right hook to his chin like Tim Anderson got.
That is why you're watching is because Jake Paul has
made himself this villain, Like I don't think that Nate
Diaz is a is the the he He's not the
Golden Boy for sure, and not even saying that he's
Oscar dale Hoya, but Nada's thought of as the as

(22:06):
the bad bad guy, you know, the bad boy. But
if you could see Jake Paul getting knocked on his can,
heck yeah, you're gonna tune into that. And it's and
it's not boxing like it's it's not and it's not
a threat to boxing either. It is what it is.
You just take it for the celebrity freak show sort
of nature that it is. And that's the draw of it.

(22:28):
Like I don't think you can actually look at that
as a boxing match even though they're boxing.

Speaker 7 (22:33):
But people are and if if it was a little
bit more, I guess like wwe like more joking about
it and like there was more spectacle to it. But
in reality, this guy thinks it's he's serious and didn't
naydas like gain weight in order to fight, Like it's
just as like all you're fighting all of these people
that of course you're gonna win, of course they're gonna win,
but he's taking it seriously. He also looks like Megabig

(22:56):
and you know what I'm implying with that.

Speaker 3 (22:58):
Like Royd's whoa, And I'm not talking hemorrhoids, I'm talking steroids.
I just realized I just needed to clarify. Just clarify
steroids is what you're saying.

Speaker 7 (23:09):
Obviously, I mean, like I just I really I don't.
I don't get the infatuation, the level of it. I
do not get it.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
I just realized with things like this, And honestly, you
want to know what my eye opener was. It was
actually with the game that I love in golf, and
there was there was this point and it's and there
was a point where the interest in golf pre COVID
was was really getting low. It took too long to play.
But there were other things that were popping up. Everybody

(23:38):
knows about disc golf. Disc golf has its own community
foot golf. You guys seen foot golf, whether they're kicking
a soccer ball essentially like golf, and the holes are enormous,
But that's not golf. But it's okay that it's a
branch off of it. Nobody's gonna be like, you know,
I wasn't gonna watch the Windham Championship, but I got
reeled into foot you know, foot golf, and so now
I'm watching to see if Justin tom can make the

(24:00):
FedEx Cup playoffs. That's not gonna happen. You have to
take it for what it is. People thought that maybe
disc golf and foot golf were actually threats of golf,
and they're they're not that. And I don't think that
this is a threat to boxing at all, and he
could shouldn't be for the Spence Crawford fight and all
the hype that that got a week and a half ago.
To me, boxing seems to be at least in a
pretty decent spot and this has done nothing to turn

(24:22):
it down.

Speaker 7 (24:22):
I honestly, if I was a real boxer or in
any way shape and form a fan of this sport,
I would be like, you are diminishing what people have
been training for years just because you have the money
and the juices to do.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
It's everywhere, though, there's you know, I mean, there's spots
where people make money and they aren't and.

Speaker 8 (24:44):
This whole thing of like it's not real in their eyes,
it is.

Speaker 7 (24:47):
I mean, actually, yesterday I just went to look at it,
but it looks like they deleted it. Connor McGregor and
Jake Paul both had an exchange on Twitter that was
very nasty. I think they deleted it, and so it's like,
obviously this is more serious than you may think it is.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
And that's why I don't get not fighting boxers. That's
that's the thing about it, Like, right.

Speaker 8 (25:11):
So why are we giving them credit for anything?

Speaker 3 (25:12):
I don't think that we are giving him credit people
want to see to get is you know Night's lock
lights knocked out that or your Night's locked out, one
of the two.

Speaker 8 (25:22):
He's not fighting anyone that's even in their kind of prime.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
I think you're looking at it too directly in competition
with boxing. It's a sideshow, that's what it is.

Speaker 8 (25:31):
Yeah, wwe make it.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
It's the car wrect that you see. You know, you
can't take your eyes away from it.

Speaker 8 (25:37):
I easily you can take my eyes away from it, yea.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
And watch you watch what other people when you're driving
on the freeway they want to see. Do you see
the accident? Oh yeah, we.

Speaker 8 (25:46):
Did, right, But that's not somebody planning to do that.

Speaker 7 (25:48):
This guy is training to take down retired UFC fighters.

Speaker 8 (25:53):
I do not get the appeal. Tim Anderson, Jose Ramirez.
Nobody was expecting that this guy scored off two baseball players.

Speaker 7 (25:58):
How great was that this guy is trying to do this,
he is training to do this.

Speaker 8 (26:03):
I don't get the appeal. How are you impressed? How
is this entertaining?

Speaker 3 (26:06):
I'm not impressed. I I mean, I mean, I'm impressed
that he's been able to drum up the interest in
all of this, But this there's there's just no way
that he would be able to have this amount of
success against real boxers. I'm not talking about fighters, because
these guys are fighters with their own skills in the UFC,
but real boxers, he just he wouldn't be able to

(26:29):
hang and and that's and that's why it's set up
this way. But because maybe he draws that ire from
you or from others, because say, you're not interested for
all you want Monci, you are worked up, You are
worked up about this, and that's what that's what Jake
Paul does to people. So the next fight that he is,

(26:50):
you want to see if Connor McGregor will knock him out.
And maybe maybe people didn't like Nate Diaz and wanted
to see it, But I think it's more of the
other way.

Speaker 11 (26:56):
Around.

Speaker 3 (26:57):
They wanted to see all Nate Diaz is gonna give
him one, you know, and they Diaz did it to
Connor McGregory, and I was going to do it to you,
Jake Paul, Like, that's what you're that's what you're wishing
and hoping.

Speaker 10 (27:06):
Is that that is the parallel here, guys, Is that
the Mark Zuckerberg Elon Musk that's more interesting and that
you will tune in because you do want to see
one of them get their ass kicked. Isn't that the
parallel that you're talking about. People are tuning in for
a different reason than to watch a Science of fighting.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
But I would also say I don't think that Zuckerberg
early Elon Musk could deliver a knockout blow like what
these guys could.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
That's gonna be funny to watch. That's gonna be funny,
That is entertaining. But the fact that I think is
Jake Paul takes this so seriously where it's like how
how is how you're not really.

Speaker 3 (27:46):
Fighting all part of the It's all part of the plan,
It's all part of hate the plan. John Ramas, do
you have a question question John Ramos, the Ramos reporter, Well.

Speaker 9 (27:56):
No, I thought he did fight one fighter and he
lost his only loss.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
Right, we actually fought a boxer. No, he's got a
brother named Logan. Maybe Logan. Tommy Fury beat Jake Paul
in February. Oh so okay.

Speaker 9 (28:11):
The other point was you were talking about was it
kickball golf?

Speaker 3 (28:14):
Yes, foot golf.

Speaker 9 (28:15):
Foot golf. Yeah, that's how I look at pickleball. Pickaball
is a subset of tennis, right for people that are
older and don't want to run a lot.

Speaker 3 (28:25):
Right.

Speaker 9 (28:26):
I find I'm like Kamansi with pickaball. I find it
to be amazing how this has exploded to be this
like thing people like I played pick a ball, and
I'm like, okay, because you don't want to run on
a tennis court, And it's more app for older people
because it just that's what it's for. So I kind
of look at the way you said it's like an offset.
You enjoy it. But when the people start to take

(28:47):
it seriously, like what do you do I play professional pickaball?

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Then I say, okay, you don't. But the Anthony Richardson
story in Indianapolis, I think is a much bigger deal
for a guy who in mid April Monzie, we thought
was going to be basically taking the twenty twenty three
NFL season as a red shirt season. Gardner Minshew's brought in.
He'd be fully capable of being the quarterback and if

(29:13):
there was an emergency situation where he got hurt, then
the Colts could transition to Anthony Richardson. Prior to the
draft process, we thought Anthony Richardson was going to sit
out and would need that time. Now where in the
first week of August and he's been taking first team
reps and there's a legitimate shot that Anthony Richardson could
start Week one for the Colts. And if that happens,

(29:34):
and if he has success, I think there's a long
term ramification. Not if Bryce Young as success or CJ. Stroud.
They's seasoned in college football. Bryce Young won a Heisman. CJ.
Stroud was a two year starter putting up crazy numbers
at Ohio State. But Richardson's workload at Florida was so
limited and really was just to last season. But if
he has success, I think it translates to what we

(29:56):
saw in the NBA a little bit. Maybe not exactly,
but when everybody wanted to draft the next Dirk Novitsky.
I think that if you're a college quarterback with that
potential and you see how quickly Anthony Richardson became acclimated
to the National Football League, I think you're going to
see more guys entering the draft early at quarterbacks, and
I think you'll see more teams taking risks and flyers
hoping that they land the next Anthony Richardson.

Speaker 8 (30:18):
I think you're you're right.

Speaker 7 (30:19):
I also will say that I thought Anthony Richardson was
the most quote unquote athletic yes quarterback coming into this
and could I even say he was a sleeper in
my eyes, Like I really thought he was going to
swoop in there and prove that he could play and
that he could play in the NFL. I didn't think
it was going to happen right away. But it seems
like it's going to happen right away.

Speaker 8 (30:40):
And that's the shock.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Yeah, that is totally the shock. I even said on
this network. I think in March that I felt Anthony
Richardson should be the number one overall pick because of
the ceiling that he has right and even even if
it was long term, but if he comes in right
away and does this and has success. I think that
could change things in the NFL.

Speaker 8 (30:59):
I totally agree with you.

(31:20):
here on The Doug Gottlieb Show Live from the Tirech

Colin Coward had to say about the US women's national team.
That's next year on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 11 (31:30):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Doug
Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific.

Speaker 12 (31:39):
At now the three to two A high flyball. Al Right,
it's deep and it's on. It's Ryot Freddie Freeman with
a pre run home run and the Dodgers are doing
damage to their former teammate Rich Hill on one to
Sanchez grounds it to third, fielded by Taylor throws the first.

(32:00):

games over five hundred after they ride at the Padres

It's Fox Sports Radio, the Doug Gottlieb Show. I'm Dan Byer,
She's Monzi Blago sitting in for Doug am five seventy
LA Sports with the call. I should have known with
a cast of characters that we have here today of

(32:32):
John Ramos, Jason Stewart and the aforementioned Monci, that there
would be a Dodgers highlight of them in our play
of the day. They're now a four game lead over
the Giants in the NL West. Thus Padres, who they
beat a ten game etch. Just San Diego sits in
right now fourth place in the NL West. Did you
have any say in the Dodger highlight being called? There
was this just all that side of the glass.

Speaker 8 (32:53):
I had no say, only on the Taylor Swift songs.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
Colin Cowhard had a say on the US women's national
team and you're about to hear it in a segment
we like to call say And if you're a listener
to the Doug's Podcast or listened to the show in
the past, you know about this segment and Manzi. Colin
was able to weigh in on the exiting of the
US women's national team from the World Cup in Australia

(33:18):
following their loss to Sweden early Sunday morning.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
It wasn't their day, and it wasn't their tournament. First
of all, nobody has ever won back to back to
back World Cups. Pele didn't, Maradonna didn't, Rinaldo didn't, Messi didn't,
Brazil didn't, Argentina didn't. And we weren't going to nobody ever.
This was a young team with a new coach. That's
not exactly a recipe for World Cup dominance. Fourteen new

(33:44):
players and a coach I'm not sure was the right coach.
Rebuilding dynasties is hard. We saw it with the Warriors
last year. Old guys, same culture, new guys, not ready,
and they got boxed by the team in the playoffs
that eventually didn't even win. They didn't even play the champs.
It's hard. The Patriots post Tom Brady, it's hard. Spurs

(34:06):
without Duncan, difficult, older players, older cultures, trying to bridge
the gap. Sometimes you fire a coach and move on
to a new coach. That's what the United States women did,
a dynasty and they're in the middle of a rebuild.
This wasn't their team, by the way. Germany, I think
a very good team lost as well. Now England and
Sweden are favored. Good luck. It's hard, and we see

(34:27):
it in the NBA. The best player right now is
Jiannis or is it Embiid or is it Luca or
is it Jokic? Four players not from here. The last
five MVPs have all been four and born. People are
catching up.

Speaker 3 (34:45):
Still does give an excuse when you have a chance
to make a penalty kick and win at advance.

Speaker 7 (34:49):
Yeah, I think he's been almost too logical, and that
doesn't always work.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
It's the parachute from the crash landing it safely lands
I get saying, you know what, maybe we wouldn't have
beaten Japan in the next round.

Speaker 7 (35:03):
You know or that we weren't expected to because it's
unprecedented to have one three in a row. I just
think it's like too long, You're you're being too logical
on the situation, and I like your parachute.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
Like it's just softens. But still, they had an opportunity
to actually make it to the quarterfinal and they didn't
play well.

Speaker 8 (35:20):
They just didn't play well in the tournament. This wasn't The.

Speaker 7 (35:23):
Conversation would be different if they had been playing well.
How many how many minutes did they go without a goal?

Speaker 3 (35:29):
Yeah, three hundred and you know what I mean something
like that. The other you know, the the other part
of this is in saying like, yeah, they may have
lost in the quarterfinals, if they would have lost five
nothing to Sweden, then you're just like, all right, this
just wasn't the team. This is the end of the era,
which we've seen at times. All right, that era has
moved on, but this was they had an opportunity to

(35:50):
win it. I'm just not I'm not willing to give
them the free pass that hey, everything was all right,
because we thought once you get in the bracket, who
knows what could happen. Sweden's really good Sun's a really
good team. They had an opportunity to beat him and
couldn't get it done. Yeah, say, the big news of
the day is the suspension of Jose Ramirez and Tim
Anderson and others from their brawl on Saturday. Manci, you

(36:13):
were able to track down a message that Jose Ramirez
is trying to get out.

Speaker 7 (36:17):
Yes, this is according to Hector Gomes, who is an
MLB insider, tweeted this quote from Jose Ramirez. In the
light of the recent events, I want to say to
the public that I deeply regret what happened between me
and Tim Anderson, whom I consider a very good baseball player.
I've been trying to reach out to him directly and apologize,

(36:38):
but haven't received an answer. Everyone who knows me knows
well I'm not somebody who's out there looking for trouble.
I've been part of my personality and behavior to It's
been part of my personality and behavior to give one
hundred percent every day at the field to help my
team and trying to be an example for the younger
players on my team.

Speaker 8 (36:57):
I want to.

Speaker 7 (36:57):
Reiterate apologies for my behaviorhavior, and as always, my goal
is to help my team to win and reach the postseason.
I want to thank everybody in my organization, my teammates,
and all my fans for their support during this process.

Speaker 3 (37:10):
I am not surprised by this. You want to know
why it is? It is not the first time Tim
Anderson has not answered the bell with Jose Ramirez. It
is it is since thank you very much. I'm sorry
if you don't like the Tim Anderson jokes. He wanted
to fight. I know he took He's squared off, right.

(37:33):
I don't fight. You want to know why? Because I
know I'm going to lose. Any fight that I would
get in, I know that I would lose, and so
that's why I'm not getting You know, I'm running.

Speaker 8 (37:43):
I'm gonna outrun whoever wants to fight me.

Speaker 3 (37:45):
That's my I'm like, let's see if we can find
the common ground. Let's see if we can find the common.

Speaker 8 (37:50):
I'm gonna take off, all right.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
We are live for the tyrack dot com studios. We
have to run. I know you're gonna be sticking around
for Coveno Rich from here, but we are in for
Doug Gottlieb Live for the Tireq dot Comm Studios. You
want to find Moncia on X find her at monci Bolanios.
You can find me at Dan Byer on Fox. It's
