Speaker 1 (00:01):
All right, this is the Doug Gottlieb Show. Heres in
the Bonus with Doug Gottlieb.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
What up, Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio. I hope
you're having a great day. I just saw this. Lawrence
Moten died at fifty three years old. Lawrence Moten was
(00:34):
the star guard for Syracuse Orangeman, played a little bit
in the NBA as well, and he had one of
the greatest nicknames of all time. Now, lots of good nicknames,
people will say, one of the greatest nick names of
all time, But JAYCEU, are you familiar with Lawrence Moten's
the late now Lawrence Moten's nickname?
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I'm not, and I actually regret it because Lawrence Moten
was one of my favorite players when he played College
of basketball. Was a Syracuse ball fan. So what's his name?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Poetry in Molten?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Nice?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Right? I mean, how good is that? And he was
He was one of those guys that you couldn't tell
whether he wasn't playing hard or is just super smooth
because that he just had that dynamic to him.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Is that or is that something else?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I think it I don't know. I think I feel
like it was a Burmanism. I don't think it was
a vitalism. I think it was Berman Lawrence poetry in Molten.
How could is that? I mean, I'm I'm not jealous
that he died at fifty three, but I'm jealous of
the fact that he had an unbelievable nickname. An unbelievable nickname,
(01:39):
and when you put together love, I'd love to know
that one. Just it feels like Berman, right, just kind
of makes sense on a Burman thing. And nicknames can
be all sorts of different ways, you know. I was
with Eric Sanders, is my assistant. Eric Sanders's nickname is
eighth grade. His nickname is eighth grade. He played Santaye
State because when he first showed up at Santue State,
(02:01):
Randy Holcomb, who's their best player, was like, man, the
fuck's that eighth grader? Right? Because he was so skinny,
looked so young. He ended up becoming a just a
stud at San Diego State, right, but he's forever known
as eighth grade. And then he played with Chris Walton.
Chris Walton is Bill Walton's I don't know is he
(02:23):
the youngest or second. I think he's the second youngest,
and Luke's the youngest. But Chris Walton's nickname is Toughy.
But it's not because he's tough. They all were, but
because they had four boys. But one of the older
boys couldn't pronounce Christopher, so he called him Toughy, and
his nickname is Toughy. Right, So I'm not sure if
I like nicknames as much as I do love nicknames,
(02:43):
but I also like how they happened upon a nickname.
How did you get that nickname? How'd you get that nickname?
Speaker 4 (02:50):
Did you have a nickname at Oklhoma State?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Doug Yeah, but nothing that was like, you know, fresh
because it was Dougie Fresh. That was when I was forever,
when I was looking. People call me fresh for a
long time, but not to the where it ever replaced
my name. So Decimation tried to call me Gotti because
(03:12):
I was a basketball gangster. I don't know. I felt
like that was a p It was a cool nickname.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Like Gotty, but also yeah, gottlieb Gotti.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yes, yes, yeah, yes, that was his thing. So so no,
I mean, maybe some of this is is jealousy, but
it just I don't I don't understand it. I don't
I don't get why some guys, it's just it's one
of those magical things. A really good nickname that sticks
(03:42):
is something super special. And we tried to convince Eric
of this. Eric's like, man, I really won't be known
as Eric or Coach Sanders, Like I'm a grown man now,
like forty And you're like, yeah, but you have an
awesome nickname, Like everybody knows you as eighth grade? Why
would you give that up? Like do you think Lawrence
Moten was walking around people are like poetry mode. He's like, no,
just call me Larry. I don't think so. I think
(04:05):
when you have a great nickname, you're supposed to absorb it, livid,
even if you don't love the nickname, because it's just
cool to say I have a great nickname. Magic Johnson's
probably the most iconic nickname. Babe Ruth too, Babe Ruth,
m George Herman, Ruth the Bambino, Babe Minnie, Babe Ruth,
(04:29):
Magic Johnson. What's the what's the what's the Dan? The
Man was Dan Marino? Right, It's dam Marie and Dan
the Man? Eldrick Tiger Woods? How did he get the nickname?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Tiger didn't Charlie Sheen recently go back into this. Maybe
I'm conflating two things.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Tiger blood.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Yeah, so he did that tiger blood thing he's been
I'm doing the promotion for his documentary recently, and I'm trying.
I want to say he traced the whole tiger thing
back to Tiger and then explained why it's Tiger. I
don't know anyways, I don't know. I have no idea
where it came from. But it's a great nickname.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Eldrick Tiger Wood. So Tiger is the great nick name
in the history. Well, gray Stick is Golden Bear better
than Tiger Woods.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
I have the old AI overview Google machine explanation for
how Tiger got his nickname if you want to hear it.
You know these results can be flawed. But this says
that Tiger Wood's father, Earl Woods, gave him the nickname
Tiger in honor of his friend, Colonel Vuang Dang Fong,
a brave South Vietnamese officer who is known by that
nickname and once saved Earl's life during the Vietnam War.
(05:51):
If that's not true, that someone made up quite a
tall tale.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
That's a great origin. I don't know why. I don't
know that we'll offer these up chat GPT give us these.
The great one m the answer Everson and then I
don't think this one counts because I don't think you
can give yourself a nickname. The black Mamba. That's that
(06:17):
will self originated by Kobe's I don't know if that counts.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah, but it's been chemist synonymous with him. Issues are
known as the Mamba's all out, all out. I agree
giving yourself the nickname. And it was at a weird
time in his career where nobody liked him. Somebody want
to give him a nickname other than the black Hole,
so he called him with the Black Mamba. Yeah, yeah,
that's about right. Okay, So if we're gonna do baseball,
(06:46):
the greatest nickname is I mean, there's lots of great
nicknames stand the Man, also the Man, right, the Wizard
of Oz that's a good one. Ozzie Smith, really good one.
Junior was Ken Griffey Jr. It's his name, but it's
also a nickname. It just became synonymous with him.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
What about Charlie Hustle.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Charlie Hustle, Sure, sweetness is Walter Payton right? Uh? Broadway
Joe is Joe Namath.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Are we tired?
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Are we tired of just guys getting initials as their
nickname or like a shortened, condensed version of their first lane.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
I'm kind of tired of that.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Yeah, there's there seems to be some form of hybrid
between nickname and initials or nickname. And you know a
guy wh's the last name is Smith being going by Smitty.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
It tends to be the sports with a lot of
white guys. Hockey is probably the biggest offender of it.
It's the most the least imaginative way of coming up
with a nickname. I'm going to change a part of
your first or last name and a why at the end.
Hockey is the worst defender. Baseball is the second worst.
(08:05):
So it's I think there's a direct ratio of sports
with a lot of white guys in it too most
thoughtful nicknames. But then again, Tiger is a great nickname,
and we all know golf is mostly white. So maybe
I just had my own theory just most on the fly.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Well, you can have your own hypotheses or even theory
doesn't have to be proven one hundred percent correct. There
are going to be outliers, right we just can't overreact
to the outliers.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Speaking of nicknames and bermanisms, Sam shared a Bermanism on
the group text last night, and you liked it. I
didn't understand it. I don't know where buyer came out
on it, but I think it was kind of like
a Midwest joke. What was what's the bermanism here? Sam?
Speaker 5 (08:52):
All right, I'm gonna try my best Chris Berman impression here.
I'm gonna read the text in a Chris Berman voice.
One could say that the Bengals season started out fresh
and green, but with Joe Burrow's absence, the outlook is browning.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
That's terrible.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
What you liked it, that's exactly verbatim, a terrible impression maybe,
But you said the actual content was good.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
You said well done, sir right after that.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Come on, yea, because I read it the way it
was supposed to read, and you were like trying to
not make a mistake too much.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
That it was very I thought my tamber was excellent.
Your tamber, my rhythm and tambo there you're tamber.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
I don't work at my tamber, so what do I.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Know you, mister tambourine man? All right, one of the one.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Of the one of the stranger things or one of
the things that listeners have no idea about. Sam there's
a couple of things. We recently learned that he took
fencing growing up. That's a that's a weird one. I've
never never met anyone who took fencing. They are free,
free lessons at the time. And he's got quite the
green thumb. Like he loves plants. He spends a lot
(09:57):
of his off time with with green.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
I do have a ledge right in front of my
apartment and a rock ledge where I have a ledge
garden of various things growing. I was an organic farmer
in Iowa for ten years, so I love growing things.
I love outdoor. You know, a grarian pursuits.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I love that stuff too, But I just get mentally
bored and text.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I don't know if you have the time to take
on those No.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
I just do the ad D starts creeping in. I
had time on Sunday, like all the time in the world,
and I got some stuff done. But there's lots of
things that were begun and not finished. Like, yeah, I
go ahead, golf.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Balls, listen, plants, growing things, growing flowers, growing whatever, vegetables.
They don't speak back to you. They only just grow
or don't grow. They thrive or they die. So if
you you know, it's it's like you have to tend
to your plants and they don't. What they give back
to you is a bloom or a vegetable or whatever,
but they don't. They don't chat you up while you're
(10:56):
caring for them.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
So it sounds like a meme. You need to that,
and I mean only give back to you what you give.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
It does take what you need and leave what you don't.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Might be a Beatles lyric, right there might be.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Well let's get the Fox Says and now every day
at this time and Doug Gottlieb Show in the Bonus
podcast to play for your previous portion of the Fox
Sports Radio or Fox Sports One show, we call it
what does the Fox Say? This is Brady Quinn and
Jonas Knox talking about AJ Brown in Philadelphia.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
That's how it works with receivers in the NFL. I
just you know, it's it's a roller coaster ride. You know,
it's hard to keep them happy, man, it really is.
I mean, how did you deal with it? Like, I mean,
how do you like if you got some guy in
your ear the entire time?
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Hey man, why can I get the ball? Hey man?
Why can it? Like?
Speaker 6 (11:52):
You know, I didn't have kids then, but it's very similar.
It's very similar to how you handle kids, in my opinion.
You know, you try to to build them up. You're
trying to make sure they still stay engaged, make sure
they still stay as part of it, and understanding how
important their job is, their role is. But you're you're
(12:14):
really kind of like trying to just constantly kind of
reaffirm how good they are, reaffirm that you know, we
need you and all that kind of stuff. You know, hey,
they're taking you away, but we'll try to come up
with something and whatever else. And you're kind of just
pushing it to like the next week, because there's some
game plans where you know, a guy's not gonna get
the ball as much.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I mean, he got nine targets and I saw, I mean,
I was at which show is that Manuacho point out
that they were some bad throws and some throwaway balls
or whatever, I just he's somebody who's not going to
be happy no matter how much they win unless he
gets the football. And you know, I don't care how
talented you are, that just doesn't work. They made it
(12:56):
work last year, but at some point than at some point,
it just doesn't. And this is a little bit like
I didn't want Tyrek Hill to get hurt. Nobody does.
And Tyreek Hill's incredibly talented, but there's a world where
(13:17):
the Dolphins are a better team even with a less
talented wide receiver. It's the same thing for the Eagles.
Do you really need his talent and he is AJ
Brown's unbelievably talented, Do you really need his talent to
win a Super Bowl? I don't think the answer is yes.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Isn't there a isn't there a case to be made
that Tyreek Hill and Aj Brown both play this role
that they are even if not used, that decoy alone
changes the way they're defended. You always have to account
for them on the field. So if you trade away
(13:55):
that threat, won't that make it easier on the opposing defenses?
Like there's there's been a fascinating conversation today on the Herd.
I think it's a great sports topic. He and Nick
Wright were talking about this. Colin thinks that Aj Brown
should go to the Eagles secretly and say, if you
(14:15):
if you don't mind trading me, I wouldn't mind leaving
because I have a legacy to protect. I've got my ring,
I've got the money. Now I want my touches. And
my response to that would be, why would the Eagles
hinder their own offense by trading away their biggest threat?
That's as a decoy. He seems to play a big
(14:36):
role in that.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
He does and again, but but there's just your You
have to be worth your problems, and I think you're
getting past the point of being worth his problems. I know,
here's Colin Cowherd talking about the Broncos.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
Earning a football team around is hard, but it's not
that hard. There's a reason Parcells did it over and
over and over. There's a reason Harbaugh does it over
and over and over. Some people are smarter, some people
have a better eye for talent. It's not that hard.
Sean Payton took over Denver, they were in cap hell.
Russell Wilson is still their number one cap hit today.
(15:20):
They were five and twelve we're scoring offense in the league.
Lousey offensive line, very little skill today. Start of year three,
great o' line, two capable running backs, dudes everywhere in
the perimeter. How many guys do they have that can
run and catch a lot? They'll also lead the NFL
in sacks for the second straight year. I love bo Nicks,
(15:41):
but he got lucky getting Sean Payton from play calling
to play design. He's one of the few coaches in
the NFL that is very good with personnel. He and
Harbaugh no personnel. A lot of good coaches, Kyle Shanahan,
Andy Reid, I don't think you're great with it or
don't care about it. Peyton's great at it. So nine
different guys and it's caught a ball. Everybody's almost got
(16:02):
the same body type, lean long, with good hands. They
run good routes. It is a Super Bowl roster.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Whoahohoh, slow down. They beat the Bengals, who aren't great
and don't have their quarterback. Whoa, whoa who slow down?
Like the turnaround thought. They played well as we thought
they would. They played the Bengals without their quarterback. Here's
(16:33):
Nick right talking about the Ravens.
Speaker 8 (16:35):
The Ravens shout out to him, man. I mean, it's
one of the greatest hypothetical teams of all time, the
Ravens the last seven years, every year I got to
hear about the talent. That's the other thing that kills
me about this conversation. Now, I understand that now the
defense is super banged up. It was not super banged
up two weeks ago when they were terrible, and all
(16:57):
off season I heard about jayra l Alexander and Malachi
Starks and Kyle Hamilton and Roquan Smith and all of it.
And once again, it's a team that is an idea
more than it is anything else. Oddly, Danny and you
mentioned this last week. They are still minus two hundred
(17:18):
in the AFC North. They have better Super Bowl odds
than Kansas City right now, really.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Yeah, and better odds to make the playoffs, yes, than
the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (17:26):
Because of the path Vegas can't quit this team. They
have better odds to win the conference and win the
Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah. I don't understand that one either. I don't understand.
I know why they've been losing of late, but I've
never understood Vegas is infatuation with him. But that one
doesn't make any sense to me either, if I'm from
truly being honest, that's what the Fox is.
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Say.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio app.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Let's find out who What's annoying Jason Stewart.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
And now it's your annoying, Doug.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
You know my stance on prediction radio. I hate predictions.
I think it's lazy. Unless I get something right, then
I'm kind of cool. I'm cool with prediction radio. Twenty
four hours ago, I made the following comment, and I'm
going to do something now that it's industry vernacular. It
goes back to the start of the medium, like when
(18:36):
they first started doing radio, hosts would tell the person
working the board, harp it up, Sammy. Harpen it up
means when you do a flashback, bring in some harps,
maybe a rewind sound. So I'm gonna ask the person
running the board right now, harp it up, Sammy. This
(18:59):
thing went viral. I guarantee he's going to do some
kind of weird backup or apology or I reached out
to the reporter that was, you know, beneath hell a
head coach that should treat this. I have a feeling
he's going to do that, but I think that he should.
It will be the second time this season that he's
had to backtrack from something that he said in the
emotion of a game, and he needs to get better
(19:21):
at that. So Doug lo and behold. Ben Johnson, the
coach of the Bears, was asked this question about his
unfortunate exchange with the reporter some day. I know there's
been some buzz about your halftime exchange.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Can you relay how you interpreted that that conversation.
Speaker 9 (19:41):
Yeah, you know, in the moment, I honestly, I didn't
think too much of it. I'm kind of in in
game mode. But then when I look back at it,
you know, I am a little bit disappointed with what
that looks like. You know, I didn't hear very well,
and that's not an excuse, but but when when I
thought I heard that it was not a question but
(20:04):
that I needed to make some changes, I didn't take
that very well. So I'll do a better job with
those going forward.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
I actually agree with that. I mean I think she
I think he I don't know to misheard the question,
but she didn't listen to what he actually said, and
then said, you know, do you have to change some things?
So I actually buy it as as a logic behind it.
I thought, you said, are you okay, Spider, That's that's
(20:34):
what I counted.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
No credit for the prediction.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Uh that yeah, that he would apologize the reporter, of course.
I mean you you've been in this game long enough.
You knew exactly what was gonna happen, and you nailed it.
So I thought, I nailed what he said and where
he went wrong, and you nailed that it was going
to be I reached out to her to apologize, and
nothing really comes with it and it goes away. So
we're both right.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
So, Doug, I think the Ryder Cup and the the
fan the fan action behavior at the Ryder Cup is
just further proof that this country is much dumber than
it has been ever, that that we are glorifying uneducated
people who act poorly in public. I think education is
(21:19):
a very important tool, and if you really want to
get into the weeds of how much we were set
back by COVID and education and how there's a generation
of kids are teenagers that are so far behind educationally
that it's laughable. We could do that, but I won't.
I won't go into the weeds on this podcast, but
I will say this education is very important people, and
(21:41):
educated society is a thriving society. So I present Lonzo Ball.
Lonzo Ball went to Chino Hills High famously had a
father who had three boys, the Ball brothers. I don't
think academics was a priority. I think the priority was
bawling big Being a big baller is the priority, maybe
(22:05):
one through three, and then playing basketball was the fourth priority.
Winning at basketball was a fifth priority, and academics was
was well below that. So Lonzo Ball is on the
calves now. I don't know if people knew that it's
in the city of Cleveland. The city and the stadium
(22:26):
is called the Mistake by the Lake. Cleveland is on
the UH one of the great lakes Erie Lake Erie.
This is Lonzo Ball yesterday. I like Cleveland. I keep
joking with the guys. I didn't even know Cleveland had water,
So didn't know Cleveland had water next to it. Geography
(22:47):
is one of the main staples of your former education.
I would suggest people pay attention in that class. So
now we need to put Lonzo Ball with Taylor Townsend,
who is the tennis player who got into a little
riff at the US Open and said this after her
match with a.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Forum player, Taylor, congratulations, fiery match. Start to finish.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
We'll get to it all.
Speaker 5 (23:14):
Can you fill us in on the conversation you were
having with the Elena out there?
Speaker 10 (23:17):
Yeah, I mean, you know, it's competition. People get upset
when they lose and you can't. Some people say bad things.
She told me I have no class, I have no education,
and to see what happens when we get outside the US.
So I'm looking forward to it. I mean, I beat
her in Canada outside the US. I beat her in
New York outside the US. So let's see what else
she has to say.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Oops.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
My favorite part of that bite is that she told
me I have no education, and then I'm going to
prove to you in five seconds how uneducated I am. So,
just to recap Doug, the Queens is a borough of
New York City and it is in the US. Yes,
And there's a lot of water right next to Cleveland
(23:58):
called the called Lake Erie.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Yes. Yes, well, I mean because you worked at the
gym Rome show. You remember when people called it mistake
on the lake and Cleveland was the place where the
lake was so polluted for a while that it actually
caught on.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Fire as the Ohio River caught on fire.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
My mistake.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Maybe listen, maybe Lonzo Ball was just like actually asking,
like he didn't even know Cleveland had like indoor plumbing
or running water. I mean that could be also be
a kid in case who knows, we don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
That would be funny. Yeah, so I don't know. There's
a there's a Twitter side. I recommend everyone follow it
because it's great. It's called at Umpire Auditor at Umpire Auditor,
and its main purpose for the last two or three
years has been to point out how ridiculously awful homeplate
(24:49):
umpires have been in their accuracy of balls and strikes.
I personally, I like this conspiracy, and I'm gonna believe
it until someone tells me otherwise. I think this Twitter
side is set up by Major League Baseball because Major
League Baseball has had to build a case against human
umpires so that they can implement robot umpires. And I'm
(25:10):
guessing this site is set up by somebody in the
Major League Baseball Office to show you how awful homeplate
umpires are. This is their tweet this morning. Umpires missed
twenty six and sixty seven calls during this season, including
twelve hundred and three strikeouts, and they showed a great
(25:30):
video of the ten worst called strikes. It led me
to believe this, Why are we doing ABA? Why are
we waiting on ABS? We were about to start or
actually I'm watching the first game right now of the
Major League Baseball postseason? Why aren't we Why aren't we
(25:51):
implementing ABS in the most important games this fall. You've
made your case we need robot umpires. Now, let's implement
it in the most important games of the year. We
had it in the All Star Game. That's an exhibition.
We've had it in minor league baseball that, unfortunately no
one pays attention to. Why not have it in the
(26:13):
grandest stage of your sport starting two hours ago?
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I don't know. Doesn't make any sense to me, literally
no sense. I got nothing for you. I wish I
had something for you, but I got nothing for you.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Zero. So Baseball's approach to ABS, education and geography is important.
And then Ben Johnson walking back sort of regretting what
he said to the reporter.
Speaker 5 (26:42):
Hey Doug, Hey Doug, Yeah, can I offer one more thing?
It's gonna annoy both of you. It wasn't the Ohio rivers,
the Koya Hunger River, koya Hoga River. Excuse me, It
is a tributary of Lake Erie. Just want to correct
myself so I don't get added atid from people in Cleveland.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
No, I already got a tweet from Wow Corvette two.
I'm an idiot. I know it's that's that's what's.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
You're what's wrong with the American education system.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
That's what this fact says. Conflated a little bit.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
There, Yeah, I did. What's the most annoying? I would say, Abs,
It's so simple, it's it's proven to work. We've used
it now. These are the most important games. Why wouldn't
you want to get it right? That's another.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Why are we doing this.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Because we can?
Speaker 3 (27:35):
I wanted to call back today because frankly, I couldn't
find anything with cussing today, but I wanted to call
back and emphasize this one from yesterday. And I think
part of the genius in this because we can buy
is that the reporter. I think if I'm not mistaken,
chooses to say the word fuck as opposed to like
(27:55):
f or you know whatever, I think the reporter says
the word for and then you have the best golfer
in the world saying it. So this is cool.
Speaker 11 (28:04):
With all that in mind, everything you go through, how
satisfying is it to turn around to someone and say, quote,
shut the f up and then stiff it to two
feet Very fucking satisfying. Congratulations, it wasn't stiff. It wasn't stiff.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
I had to put.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
It British humor. Why could we play it for you?
Because we can't. That's it for the ind The bonus
podcast check at the radio show every day three to
five is from Told to Pacific Fox Sports Radio. iHeartRadio app.
(28:43):
I'm Doug Gallig.
All right, this is the Doug Gottlieb Show. Heres in
the Bonus with Doug Gottlieb.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
What up, Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio. I hope
you're having a great day. I just saw this. Lawrence
Moten died at fifty three years old. Lawrence Moten was
(00:34):
the star guard for Syracuse Orangeman, played a little bit
in the NBA as well, and he had one of
the greatest nicknames of all time. Now, lots of good nicknames,
people will say, one of the greatest nick names of
all time, But JAYCEU, are you familiar with Lawrence Moten's
the late now Lawrence Moten's nickname?
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I'm not, and I actually regret it because Lawrence Moten
was one of my favorite players when he played College
of basketball. Was a Syracuse ball fan. So what's his name?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Poetry in Molten?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Nice?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Right? I mean, how good is that? And he was
He was one of those guys that you couldn't tell
whether he wasn't playing hard or is just super smooth
because that he just had that dynamic to him.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Is that or is that something else?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I think it I don't know. I think I feel
like it was a Burmanism. I don't think it was
a vitalism. I think it was Berman Lawrence poetry in Molten.
How could is that? I mean, I'm I'm not jealous
that he died at fifty three, but I'm jealous of
the fact that he had an unbelievable nickname. An unbelievable nickname,
(01:39):
and when you put together love, I'd love to know
that one. Just it feels like Berman, right, just kind
of makes sense on a Burman thing. And nicknames can
be all sorts of different ways, you know. I was
with Eric Sanders, is my assistant. Eric Sanders's nickname is
eighth grade. His nickname is eighth grade. He played Santaye
State because when he first showed up at Santue State,
(02:01):
Randy Holcomb, who's their best player, was like, man, the
fuck's that eighth grader? Right? Because he was so skinny,
looked so young. He ended up becoming a just a
stud at San Diego State, right, but he's forever known
as eighth grade. And then he played with Chris Walton.
Chris Walton is Bill Walton's I don't know is he
(02:23):
the youngest or second. I think he's the second youngest,
and Luke's the youngest. But Chris Walton's nickname is Toughy.
But it's not because he's tough. They all were, but
because they had four boys. But one of the older
boys couldn't pronounce Christopher, so he called him Toughy, and
his nickname is Toughy. Right, So I'm not sure if
I like nicknames as much as I do love nicknames,
(02:43):
but I also like how they happened upon a nickname.
How did you get that nickname? How'd you get that nickname?
Speaker 4 (02:50):
Did you have a nickname at Oklhoma State?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Doug Yeah, but nothing that was like, you know, fresh
because it was Dougie Fresh. That was when I was forever,
when I was looking. People call me fresh for a
long time, but not to the where it ever replaced
my name. So Decimation tried to call me Gotti because
(03:12):
I was a basketball gangster. I don't know. I felt
like that was a p It was a cool nickname.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Like Gotty, but also yeah, gottlieb Gotti.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yes, yes, yeah, yes, that was his thing. So so no,
I mean, maybe some of this is is jealousy, but
it just I don't I don't understand it. I don't
I don't get why some guys, it's just it's one
of those magical things. A really good nickname that sticks
(03:42):
is something super special. And we tried to convince Eric
of this. Eric's like, man, I really won't be known
as Eric or Coach Sanders, Like I'm a grown man now,
like forty And you're like, yeah, but you have an
awesome nickname, Like everybody knows you as eighth grade? Why
would you give that up? Like do you think Lawrence
Moten was walking around people are like poetry mode. He's like, no,
just call me Larry. I don't think so. I think
(04:05):
when you have a great nickname, you're supposed to absorb it, livid,
even if you don't love the nickname, because it's just
cool to say I have a great nickname. Magic Johnson's
probably the most iconic nickname. Babe Ruth too, Babe Ruth,
m George Herman, Ruth the Bambino, Babe Minnie, Babe Ruth,
(04:29):
Magic Johnson. What's the what's the what's the Dan? The
Man was Dan Marino? Right, It's dam Marie and Dan
the Man? Eldrick Tiger Woods? How did he get the nickname?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Tiger didn't Charlie Sheen recently go back into this. Maybe
I'm conflating two things.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Tiger blood.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Yeah, so he did that tiger blood thing he's been
I'm doing the promotion for his documentary recently, and I'm trying.
I want to say he traced the whole tiger thing
back to Tiger and then explained why it's Tiger. I
don't know anyways, I don't know. I have no idea
where it came from. But it's a great nickname.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Eldrick Tiger Wood. So Tiger is the great nick name
in the history. Well, gray Stick is Golden Bear better
than Tiger Woods.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
I have the old AI overview Google machine explanation for
how Tiger got his nickname if you want to hear it.
You know these results can be flawed. But this says
that Tiger Wood's father, Earl Woods, gave him the nickname
Tiger in honor of his friend, Colonel Vuang Dang Fong,
a brave South Vietnamese officer who is known by that
nickname and once saved Earl's life during the Vietnam War.
(05:51):
If that's not true, that someone made up quite a
tall tale.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
That's a great origin. I don't know why. I don't
know that we'll offer these up chat GPT give us these.
The great one m the answer Everson and then I
don't think this one counts because I don't think you
can give yourself a nickname. The black Mamba. That's that
(06:17):
will self originated by Kobe's I don't know if that counts.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah, but it's been chemist synonymous with him. Issues are
known as the Mamba's all out, all out. I agree
giving yourself the nickname. And it was at a weird
time in his career where nobody liked him. Somebody want
to give him a nickname other than the black Hole,
so he called him with the Black Mamba. Yeah, yeah,
that's about right. Okay, So if we're gonna do baseball,
(06:46):
the greatest nickname is I mean, there's lots of great
nicknames stand the Man, also the Man, right, the Wizard
of Oz that's a good one. Ozzie Smith, really good one.
Junior was Ken Griffey Jr. It's his name, but it's
also a nickname. It just became synonymous with him.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
What about Charlie Hustle.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Charlie Hustle, Sure, sweetness is Walter Payton right? Uh? Broadway
Joe is Joe Namath.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Are we tired?
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Are we tired of just guys getting initials as their
nickname or like a shortened, condensed version of their first lane.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
I'm kind of tired of that.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Yeah, there's there seems to be some form of hybrid
between nickname and initials or nickname. And you know a
guy wh's the last name is Smith being going by Smitty.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
It tends to be the sports with a lot of
white guys. Hockey is probably the biggest offender of it.
It's the most the least imaginative way of coming up
with a nickname. I'm going to change a part of
your first or last name and a why at the end.
Hockey is the worst defender. Baseball is the second worst.
(08:05):
So it's I think there's a direct ratio of sports
with a lot of white guys in it too most
thoughtful nicknames. But then again, Tiger is a great nickname,
and we all know golf is mostly white. So maybe
I just had my own theory just most on the fly.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Well, you can have your own hypotheses or even theory
doesn't have to be proven one hundred percent correct. There
are going to be outliers, right we just can't overreact
to the outliers.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Speaking of nicknames and bermanisms, Sam shared a Bermanism on
the group text last night, and you liked it. I
didn't understand it. I don't know where buyer came out
on it, but I think it was kind of like
a Midwest joke. What was what's the bermanism here? Sam?
Speaker 5 (08:52):
All right, I'm gonna try my best Chris Berman impression here.
I'm gonna read the text in a Chris Berman voice.
One could say that the Bengals season started out fresh
and green, but with Joe Burrow's absence, the outlook is browning.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
That's terrible.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
What you liked it, that's exactly verbatim, a terrible impression maybe,
But you said the actual content was good.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
You said well done, sir right after that.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Come on, yea, because I read it the way it
was supposed to read, and you were like trying to
not make a mistake too much.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
That it was very I thought my tamber was excellent.
Your tamber, my rhythm and tambo there you're tamber.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
I don't work at my tamber, so what do I.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Know you, mister tambourine man? All right, one of the one.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Of the one of the stranger things or one of
the things that listeners have no idea about. Sam there's
a couple of things. We recently learned that he took
fencing growing up. That's a that's a weird one. I've
never never met anyone who took fencing. They are free,
free lessons at the time. And he's got quite the
green thumb. Like he loves plants. He spends a lot
(09:57):
of his off time with with green.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
I do have a ledge right in front of my
apartment and a rock ledge where I have a ledge
garden of various things growing. I was an organic farmer
in Iowa for ten years, so I love growing things.
I love outdoor. You know, a grarian pursuits.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I love that stuff too, But I just get mentally
bored and text.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I don't know if you have the time to take
on those No.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
I just do the ad D starts creeping in. I
had time on Sunday, like all the time in the world,
and I got some stuff done. But there's lots of
things that were begun and not finished. Like, yeah, I
go ahead, golf.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Balls, listen, plants, growing things, growing flowers, growing whatever, vegetables.
They don't speak back to you. They only just grow
or don't grow. They thrive or they die. So if
you you know, it's it's like you have to tend
to your plants and they don't. What they give back
to you is a bloom or a vegetable or whatever,
but they don't. They don't chat you up while you're
(10:56):
caring for them.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
So it sounds like a meme. You need to that,
and I mean only give back to you what you give.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
It does take what you need and leave what you don't.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Might be a Beatles lyric, right there might be.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Well let's get the Fox Says and now every day
at this time and Doug Gottlieb Show in the Bonus
podcast to play for your previous portion of the Fox
Sports Radio or Fox Sports One show, we call it
what does the Fox Say? This is Brady Quinn and
Jonas Knox talking about AJ Brown in Philadelphia.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
That's how it works with receivers in the NFL. I
just you know, it's it's a roller coaster ride. You know,
it's hard to keep them happy, man, it really is.
I mean, how did you deal with it? Like, I mean,
how do you like if you got some guy in
your ear the entire time?
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Hey man, why can I get the ball? Hey man?
Why can it? Like?
Speaker 6 (11:52):
You know, I didn't have kids then, but it's very similar.
It's very similar to how you handle kids, in my opinion.
You know, you try to to build them up. You're
trying to make sure they still stay engaged, make sure
they still stay as part of it, and understanding how
important their job is, their role is. But you're you're
(12:14):
really kind of like trying to just constantly kind of
reaffirm how good they are, reaffirm that you know, we
need you and all that kind of stuff. You know, hey,
they're taking you away, but we'll try to come up
with something and whatever else. And you're kind of just
pushing it to like the next week, because there's some
game plans where you know, a guy's not gonna get
the ball as much.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I mean, he got nine targets and I saw, I mean,
I was at which show is that Manuacho point out
that they were some bad throws and some throwaway balls
or whatever, I just he's somebody who's not going to
be happy no matter how much they win unless he
gets the football. And you know, I don't care how
talented you are, that just doesn't work. They made it
(12:56):
work last year, but at some point than at some point,
it just doesn't. And this is a little bit like
I didn't want Tyrek Hill to get hurt. Nobody does.
And Tyreek Hill's incredibly talented, but there's a world where
(13:17):
the Dolphins are a better team even with a less
talented wide receiver. It's the same thing for the Eagles.
Do you really need his talent and he is AJ
Brown's unbelievably talented, Do you really need his talent to
win a Super Bowl? I don't think the answer is yes.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Isn't there a isn't there a case to be made
that Tyreek Hill and Aj Brown both play this role
that they are even if not used, that decoy alone
changes the way they're defended. You always have to account
for them on the field. So if you trade away
(13:55):
that threat, won't that make it easier on the opposing defenses?
Like there's there's been a fascinating conversation today on the Herd.
I think it's a great sports topic. He and Nick
Wright were talking about this. Colin thinks that Aj Brown
should go to the Eagles secretly and say, if you
(14:15):
if you don't mind trading me, I wouldn't mind leaving
because I have a legacy to protect. I've got my ring,
I've got the money. Now I want my touches. And
my response to that would be, why would the Eagles
hinder their own offense by trading away their biggest threat?
That's as a decoy. He seems to play a big
(14:36):
role in that.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
He does and again, but but there's just your You
have to be worth your problems, and I think you're
getting past the point of being worth his problems. I know,
here's Colin Cowherd talking about the Broncos.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
Earning a football team around is hard, but it's not
that hard. There's a reason Parcells did it over and
over and over. There's a reason Harbaugh does it over
and over and over. Some people are smarter, some people
have a better eye for talent. It's not that hard.
Sean Payton took over Denver, they were in cap hell.
Russell Wilson is still their number one cap hit today.
(15:20):
They were five and twelve we're scoring offense in the league.
Lousey offensive line, very little skill today. Start of year three,
great o' line, two capable running backs, dudes everywhere in
the perimeter. How many guys do they have that can
run and catch a lot? They'll also lead the NFL
in sacks for the second straight year. I love bo Nicks,
(15:41):
but he got lucky getting Sean Payton from play calling
to play design. He's one of the few coaches in
the NFL that is very good with personnel. He and
Harbaugh no personnel. A lot of good coaches, Kyle Shanahan,
Andy Reid, I don't think you're great with it or
don't care about it. Peyton's great at it. So nine
different guys and it's caught a ball. Everybody's almost got
(16:02):
the same body type, lean long, with good hands. They
run good routes. It is a Super Bowl roster.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Whoahohoh, slow down. They beat the Bengals, who aren't great
and don't have their quarterback. Whoa, whoa who slow down?
Like the turnaround thought. They played well as we thought
they would. They played the Bengals without their quarterback. Here's
(16:33):
Nick right talking about the Ravens.
Speaker 8 (16:35):
The Ravens shout out to him, man. I mean, it's
one of the greatest hypothetical teams of all time, the
Ravens the last seven years, every year I got to
hear about the talent. That's the other thing that kills
me about this conversation. Now, I understand that now the
defense is super banged up. It was not super banged
up two weeks ago when they were terrible, and all
(16:57):
off season I heard about jayra l Alexander and Malachi
Starks and Kyle Hamilton and Roquan Smith and all of it.
And once again, it's a team that is an idea
more than it is anything else. Oddly, Danny and you
mentioned this last week. They are still minus two hundred
(17:18):
in the AFC North. They have better Super Bowl odds
than Kansas City right now, really.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Yeah, and better odds to make the playoffs, yes, than
the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (17:26):
Because of the path Vegas can't quit this team. They
have better odds to win the conference and win the
Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah. I don't understand that one either. I don't understand.
I know why they've been losing of late, but I've
never understood Vegas is infatuation with him. But that one
doesn't make any sense to me either, if I'm from
truly being honest, that's what the Fox is.
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Say.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio app.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Let's find out who What's annoying Jason Stewart.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
And now it's your annoying, Doug.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
You know my stance on prediction radio. I hate predictions.
I think it's lazy. Unless I get something right, then
I'm kind of cool. I'm cool with prediction radio. Twenty
four hours ago, I made the following comment, and I'm
going to do something now that it's industry vernacular. It
goes back to the start of the medium, like when
(18:36):
they first started doing radio, hosts would tell the person
working the board, harp it up, Sammy. Harpen it up
means when you do a flashback, bring in some harps,
maybe a rewind sound. So I'm gonna ask the person
running the board right now, harp it up, Sammy. This
(18:59):
thing went viral. I guarantee he's going to do some
kind of weird backup or apology or I reached out
to the reporter that was, you know, beneath hell a
head coach that should treat this. I have a feeling
he's going to do that, but I think that he should.
It will be the second time this season that he's
had to backtrack from something that he said in the
emotion of a game, and he needs to get better
(19:21):
at that. So Doug lo and behold. Ben Johnson, the
coach of the Bears, was asked this question about his
unfortunate exchange with the reporter some day. I know there's
been some buzz about your halftime exchange.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Can you relay how you interpreted that that conversation.
Speaker 9 (19:41):
Yeah, you know, in the moment, I honestly, I didn't
think too much of it. I'm kind of in in
game mode. But then when I look back at it,
you know, I am a little bit disappointed with what
that looks like. You know, I didn't hear very well,
and that's not an excuse, but but when when I
thought I heard that it was not a question but
(20:04):
that I needed to make some changes, I didn't take
that very well. So I'll do a better job with
those going forward.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
I actually agree with that. I mean I think she
I think he I don't know to misheard the question,
but she didn't listen to what he actually said, and
then said, you know, do you have to change some things?
So I actually buy it as as a logic behind it.
I thought, you said, are you okay, Spider, That's that's
(20:34):
what I counted.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
No credit for the prediction.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Uh that yeah, that he would apologize the reporter, of course.
I mean you you've been in this game long enough.
You knew exactly what was gonna happen, and you nailed it.
So I thought, I nailed what he said and where
he went wrong, and you nailed that it was going
to be I reached out to her to apologize, and
nothing really comes with it and it goes away. So
we're both right.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
So, Doug, I think the Ryder Cup and the the
fan the fan action behavior at the Ryder Cup is
just further proof that this country is much dumber than
it has been ever, that that we are glorifying uneducated
people who act poorly in public. I think education is
(21:19):
a very important tool, and if you really want to
get into the weeds of how much we were set
back by COVID and education and how there's a generation
of kids are teenagers that are so far behind educationally
that it's laughable. We could do that, but I won't.
I won't go into the weeds on this podcast, but
I will say this education is very important people, and
(21:41):
educated society is a thriving society. So I present Lonzo Ball.
Lonzo Ball went to Chino Hills High famously had a
father who had three boys, the Ball brothers. I don't
think academics was a priority. I think the priority was
bawling big Being a big baller is the priority, maybe
(22:05):
one through three, and then playing basketball was the fourth priority.
Winning at basketball was a fifth priority, and academics was
was well below that. So Lonzo Ball is on the
calves now. I don't know if people knew that it's
in the city of Cleveland. The city and the stadium
(22:26):
is called the Mistake by the Lake. Cleveland is on
the UH one of the great lakes Erie Lake Erie.
This is Lonzo Ball yesterday. I like Cleveland. I keep
joking with the guys. I didn't even know Cleveland had water,
So didn't know Cleveland had water next to it. Geography
(22:47):
is one of the main staples of your former education.
I would suggest people pay attention in that class. So
now we need to put Lonzo Ball with Taylor Townsend,
who is the tennis player who got into a little
riff at the US Open and said this after her
match with a.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Forum player, Taylor, congratulations, fiery match. Start to finish.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
We'll get to it all.
Speaker 5 (23:14):
Can you fill us in on the conversation you were
having with the Elena out there?
Speaker 10 (23:17):
Yeah, I mean, you know, it's competition. People get upset
when they lose and you can't. Some people say bad things.
She told me I have no class, I have no education,
and to see what happens when we get outside the US.
So I'm looking forward to it. I mean, I beat
her in Canada outside the US. I beat her in
New York outside the US. So let's see what else
she has to say.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Oops.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
My favorite part of that bite is that she told
me I have no education, and then I'm going to
prove to you in five seconds how uneducated I am. So,
just to recap Doug, the Queens is a borough of
New York City and it is in the US. Yes,
And there's a lot of water right next to Cleveland
(23:58):
called the called Lake Erie.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Yes. Yes, well, I mean because you worked at the
gym Rome show. You remember when people called it mistake
on the lake and Cleveland was the place where the
lake was so polluted for a while that it actually
caught on.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Fire as the Ohio River caught on fire.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
My mistake.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Maybe listen, maybe Lonzo Ball was just like actually asking,
like he didn't even know Cleveland had like indoor plumbing
or running water. I mean that could be also be
a kid in case who knows, we don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
That would be funny. Yeah, so I don't know. There's
a there's a Twitter side. I recommend everyone follow it
because it's great. It's called at Umpire Auditor at Umpire Auditor,
and its main purpose for the last two or three
years has been to point out how ridiculously awful homeplate
(24:49):
umpires have been in their accuracy of balls and strikes.
I personally, I like this conspiracy, and I'm gonna believe
it until someone tells me otherwise. I think this Twitter
side is set up by Major League Baseball because Major
League Baseball has had to build a case against human
umpires so that they can implement robot umpires. And I'm
(25:10):
guessing this site is set up by somebody in the
Major League Baseball Office to show you how awful homeplate
umpires are. This is their tweet this morning. Umpires missed
twenty six and sixty seven calls during this season, including
twelve hundred and three strikeouts, and they showed a great
(25:30):
video of the ten worst called strikes. It led me
to believe this, Why are we doing ABA? Why are
we waiting on ABS? We were about to start or
actually I'm watching the first game right now of the
Major League Baseball postseason? Why aren't we Why aren't we
(25:51):
implementing ABS in the most important games this fall. You've
made your case we need robot umpires. Now, let's implement
it in the most important games of the year. We
had it in the All Star Game. That's an exhibition.
We've had it in minor league baseball that, unfortunately no
one pays attention to. Why not have it in the
(26:13):
grandest stage of your sport starting two hours ago?
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I don't know. Doesn't make any sense to me, literally
no sense. I got nothing for you. I wish I
had something for you, but I got nothing for you.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Zero. So Baseball's approach to ABS, education and geography is important.
And then Ben Johnson walking back sort of regretting what
he said to the reporter.
Speaker 5 (26:42):
Hey Doug, Hey Doug, Yeah, can I offer one more thing?
It's gonna annoy both of you. It wasn't the Ohio rivers,
the Koya Hunger River, koya Hoga River. Excuse me, It
is a tributary of Lake Erie. Just want to correct
myself so I don't get added atid from people in Cleveland.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
No, I already got a tweet from Wow Corvette two.
I'm an idiot. I know it's that's that's what's.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
You're what's wrong with the American education system.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
That's what this fact says. Conflated a little bit.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
There, Yeah, I did. What's the most annoying? I would say, Abs,
It's so simple, it's it's proven to work. We've used
it now. These are the most important games. Why wouldn't
you want to get it right? That's another.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Why are we doing this.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Because we can?
Speaker 3 (27:35):
I wanted to call back today because frankly, I couldn't
find anything with cussing today, but I wanted to call
back and emphasize this one from yesterday. And I think
part of the genius in this because we can buy
is that the reporter. I think if I'm not mistaken,
chooses to say the word fuck as opposed to like
(27:55):
f or you know whatever, I think the reporter says
the word for and then you have the best golfer
in the world saying it. So this is cool.
Speaker 11 (28:04):
With all that in mind, everything you go through, how
satisfying is it to turn around to someone and say, quote,
shut the f up and then stiff it to two
feet Very fucking satisfying. Congratulations, it wasn't stiff. It wasn't stiff.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
I had to put.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
It British humor. Why could we play it for you?
Because we can't. That's it for the ind The bonus

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
