(04:59):
Every you ever noticed, so likePaul, you can't go once like there's
here. It's like three tiered here. I agree. You know, growing
up in California, I don't knowif if you've been to Palm Springs before.
I have not. No preatriab lewOkay. So you know, growing
up in San Diego, which isabout an hour and forty five way,
and going to school Los Angeles abouttwo hours away right at SC so you
can kind of get everywhere two hours. So, uh, it's it's like

(05:24):
three tiered. You got Indio andthen you got Palm Springs, and then
you got Palm Desert. Yeah,you know, it's like it's like what
color your credit card? You knowwhat I'm saying, Well, you're,
oh you're Indio. You're kind oflittle. You're like Esco. Right,
it's nice and it's grown. Butif you say, and what's the difference
Palm Springs Palm Desert their neighbors.But you got to I mean, I

(05:46):
got all I'm in Palm Desert.It's almost like you're a little more bougie
if you're Palm Desert. Ah,Okay, you know what I'm saying,
Palms Indios kind of the well,you haven't stepped your game up just yet
kind of the way they look,you know, that's the California pro Well,
you're not quite the ps people yet. You know, the palm springs,
the palm desert, you get thepalm springs. That's the old school,

(06:08):
Oh, Sinatra, and which isit's nice, that's the legendary.
That's the one where well you've beenliving here since eighteen forty, right,
But when you're a palm desert.Oh, that's the new money, right,
you're the You're the that's the threetiers. So I just laugh.
It's palm springs, dude, Indio, palm desert, palm springs. It's
palm springs, right, Am?I right about that? Or are we

(06:28):
supposed to treat like, well,if you're in River Oaks, you're not
quite in up uptown. Yeah,you know what I'm saying. It just
has that flavor. But Dame,So when you're here, I'm standing in
Indio, you're your what dog?You're staying in Indio? Oh you can't
stay there when it's like shoulder toshoulder with palm desert. But it's kind
of people like view these things different. It's weird. California is weird.

(06:49):
You know, it's different. It'sjust weird. How you know there's some
they like to throw on you inCali? Speaking of speaking of California,
did you buy chance hear UCLA's headcoach Deshaun Foster and his opening speech of
the Big Ten Media Days? Idid not. Oh my gosh, running

(07:09):
back. I didn't because we're drivingwith on the twenty some hours dude,
I alls. I was listening tohis music right on a radio and when
he got out there and then theserious satellite. But I did, and
then you know, well it's thismorning. So yesterday last night I didn't
pay attention to any of that.I took some stuf, you know,
thinking about the astros and going throughthat. But the day before I didn't
do anything. So Deshaun played runningback at UCLA and was the hell of

(07:31):
a player. So what did he? Oh God, are you gonna play
it today? It's like thirty secondswe hit on it yesterday. But you
got to hear, since you're ausc guy, triple go ahead and run.
It's like thirty seven, I mean, so okay. So he walks
out and I'm sure you've been toobviously you've probably been to like an SEC
media day. You've been to amedia day, right, and they put

(07:51):
you on this big stage and hewalks out. They're up in Indianapolis.
He addresses the media, and hiswhole speech is like a minute, and
the first thirty seconds he's like,hey, you know, we're glad to
be here, blah blah blah.But the last thirty seconds is some of
the most uncomfortable talk you've ever heardin this This is what it sounds like,
Sean. I'm sure you guys don'tknow too much about UCLA but our

(08:16):
football program. But we're in LA. It's us in USC for we I'm

(08:39):
just basically excited. That's it.Then questions in a second that is uh,
it's a way to command the stageand be prepared for it's La t
Ucla and it's in USC in theUSC pregnant pause for twenty to thirty seconds,

(09:03):
and any other questions, Oh god, you talk about insulting the media's
intelligence. So nobody, Oh you'reUSC and UCLA. We've only been talking
about you and two other teams comingfrom Los Angeles to the Big ten for
a while now, and we hadno idea University of California at Los Angeles

(09:24):
and University of Southern California. We'rein LA about twelve miles apart. Yeah,
I had a way to crush thatmedia early on that that'll that'll be
a SoundBite for the rest of thetime. Well, really, it's it's
it's you just got to play theUSC UCLA when we were in LA.
You don't know much about UCLA football, and then pregnant pause and then you

(09:46):
got yourself a hell of a pressconference. How do you how are you
not prepared for that? Like hedidn't even walk when he walks on stage,
Sean, he has no cards,no notes, nothing, not no
notes on his phone, no papernotes, nothing. How do you not
bring at least something out there?You know, I think the tendency and
I don't. I'm not going tospeak for him, but my guess is

(10:07):
have you telling you you know thoseguys that like maybe don't prepare for him.
And I'm not saying he wasn't.I don't know why he did what
he did, but and said whathe said. You know those guys and
sometimes will on a broadcast, willwon't prepare extra notes because they played that.
They'll just go on and talk aboutyou know, oh, it's just
talking football. When you got toget into the deep party, like,

(10:28):
dude, you might want to doa little study. I almost feel like
you're like, oh, I'm formerplayer. I'm used to them firing questions.
I mean, I'll just answer thequestion they come with. But when
they don't ask questions, now,how are you going to carry the speech
or how you going to carry thehow are you going to carry the mean
or be prepared on the broadcast?When when when the play by play,
guys like dude, you got someinsight, well, you know, well

(10:50):
when I played, you know,you don't want to hear it after a
while. We just want to heara good broadcaster teach us. And I
think it's same there that he feltthat the questions were going to steer him
where he was going, But washe prepared for what do you know about
the Big Ten conference? What issomebody that maybe they did? What if
somebody asked him, what do youknow anything about the history? You know
you asked us, because my thoughtsas immediate person would have initially been to

(11:11):
okay, So he's trying to andso saying we don't know where USC and
U C l A is, well, I'm gonna come back and him and
say, Okay, do you knowhow long the Big Ten's been a conference?
I just want to know your historyand knowing you're coming into a conference,
what you know about the Big Ten? And if you don't have notes
to prepare for that other than youknow recently it's big physical football, or
hey, well let's flip it.Now you're coming out here to the Big

(11:31):
Ten. Can you name the teamsin the Big Ten? What would you
have said? So my point isprepare for it. You don't have to
read your notes, but at leasthave some reference points on a one sheet
that allow you to answer like doyou know? I mean, what have
you been able to recite his scheduleyesterday? Does he know who they play?
You know what I'm saying. Imean, because you get caught up.
I understand the hype. You're anew head coach. You're getting caught

(11:52):
up in the hype of all thisstuff, and you change conferences and you're
you're a first time NF I mean, a college football head coach and a
power fight cool and it's yours.It's it's where you went to school.
I mean, don't you. Imean I can understand how you get a
little wompy job. Hence, evenmore so to validate what you're saying,
have a note or two to reference, because what he say any questions?
What if nobody asked anything? Yeah, he's just standing up there. Are

(12:15):
you supposed to get up and leave? Or he said, well, let
me tell you guys what I knowwhen we see my transition where the transformation
would have been, Well, damn, how do I transform this into something
positive? Okay, Well, letme give you guys a history what I
know about what we're coming into atUCLA. And then you make it comfortable
for them to open up quick becauseI've said, here, you're playing it
and I'm uncomfortable, and I'm ona phone for you guys fifteen hundred miles

(12:37):
away. I didn't see them,you know. It's like, oh,
come on, Deshaun, get itout. What do you try to tell
us? So? And then justpop in So, Yeah, I would
think that as a head coach,he'd probably want a few notes. That's
just me. Yeah, And thebest part about Deshaun Foster at the end
of the day, he's not DeshaunWatson, right right, That's that's a
good point spelled the same DeShawn,and DeShawn spelled this. I don't think

(13:01):
Deshaun Foster brings his own twel toevents, though, whoa you know,
I got to get my mind mystraighter early. Yeah, man, six
thirteen. But you know it's firestrays him. They're right between the eyes.
That's fine. I mean he seesit coming. Yeah, absolutely does,
no pun intended. See what Idid? Okay, okay, yeah,

(13:22):
he see he does. With you. It's like, oh, you're
Brian gonna throw right between the eyes. Yeah, yeah, blessed and you
gotta play the tow boy card.Yeah not a plowboy cowboy. Well you're,
but you follow up with the Ido not you're no, no,
maybe no, maybe cowboys. Youmight be the plowboy No triple don't play

(13:43):
that song either, absolutely not.Western Wednesday was on Wednesday, Western Friday?
Yeah yeah, oh man. Allright, let's uh, let's start
to look at this trade deadline inMajor League Baseball. There was a move
overnight that affects a team right herein the AL West. Who was it?
And what's going on? That tradedeadline is starting to heat up as

(14:05):
we get closer and close. Solet's talk about that next. But before
we talk about that, let's talkabout Men's Taclinic. Men's Teaclinic dot com.

(15:54):
Tea Clinic. Tell him that BrianA. Lima sent you coach Sark here,
touchdown, Texas. You've got sportstalk seven to ninety Houston's home of
longhornor football. Back to the ShawnSalisbury Show, Randy Randy a Rose Arena
headed to the Seattle Mariner. SeanDodgers got a little Loki doked. Uh

(16:18):
they sure did you know? Theywere in the mix for him? So,
uh, it is kind of asounder. You take a pretty uh
I mean, a good veteran playerwho's had you know, we could think
back to his postseason moment, youknow, when he had what eight or
nine home runs in that one whichwhich put him on the spotlight. Is
just you know, kind of elevatehim to star power in the league.

(16:40):
But you know they're now in thedivision, so it does be it is
a problem, right, I mean, if if he both they need bats,
right, there's all the questions.So Sean Dan and I discussed the
Seattle Mariners in the division, whichwe will as well because this trade stuff
is like there are so many differentreports out from from yesterday evening that we'll
go through. But the Seattle Marinersare either dead last or bottom three in

(17:11):
the league in every offensive category excepthome runs, and they're like sixteenth in
the league. So imagine this teamwith one of the best pitching staffs and
their offense is literally dead last inevery category except for one. Yeah,
the assholes have been able to doa great job of overcoming injuries, but
their injuries have kind of been there. Oh my gosh, right, the

(17:33):
oh again, another injury to pitchingstaff. We know they got bats and
quite frankly, when Verlander's healthy,and you got Verlander and there's some pretty
some pretty good player I mean,and Hunter Brown the way he's pitching in
Blanco, so there's really no glaringweakness on the Ashos other than injuries.
Correct. That's my point with theMariners for a team, that the discrepancy

(17:56):
between starting staff, pitching staff,and the bats. For a I'm talking
about teams at the top of theleague that are battling to win a division
and be a player a player inthe postseason. The discrepancy between good and
bad. They're extremes there that theydon't hit as you just you guys documented

(18:17):
so you said yesterday, you andDan and talking about it this morning.
So put it this way, they'rethey're they're hitting maybe worse than our injuries.
Does that is that? I guessthat's all that's fair because we've done
a better job here in Houston,meaning the asses of overcoming those and well
and hanging around first place and stayingthere. I mean well when I say

(18:37):
stand there, getting there and youknow, are in the battling the Mariners
and with the Rangers close by,but the hitting for them. See,
that's why the question is who cansustain their weakness longer? I meaning,
or get out of their weakness andsustain winning or staying hanging around with their
weakness. For the Rangers, that'sbeen pitching for a long time, right,
but they got better win a WorldSeries. Try to get healthy.

(19:00):
For the Astros right now, it'shealth now. I know we can go
to statistics on hitting and runners leftin scoring position, but they're also at
the top of the league in othercategories hitting the Astros are. It's the
injuries for them. So can yousustain this without making a big move,
or even if you did or didn'tmake a big move. With the Rangers
getting their staff healthy and then gettingback to who they were last year,

(19:21):
and with the Mariners, it's canyou somehow find a way to get enough
bats or get hot to sustain it, because just like we said, this
pitching with all these injuries, Brianisn't a World Series staff you tell me?
Is that a World Series batting orderin Seattle? No? Absolutely,
not, absolutely right. So where'sthe gap between the strength and the weakness

(19:44):
and how big is the It maynot be how good your strength is.
They're pitching a lot of things thatthe Astros we know the Rangers can break.
It's how bad your weakness is.You get my point ceiling floor thing,
and it's not a high floor whenit comes to the Astros bat I
mean the Mariners' bats. So Iunderstand a rose Raine. Hell, I'm
not sure they're done, are you? Brian on this mean you wouldn't you

(20:04):
expect it? Try and go getsomething else to as far as the hit
goes. If they want to tryto win this division, then they have
to. They're in a situation justlike the Astros, but they need offense
and a rose Arena. We knowwhat he's done in the past, but
this season, Sean, he isnot good to he's got He's eitting two
eleven, three eighteen on base anda three ninety four slugging So that's barely

(20:26):
a seven hundred oh ps. Ifyou did not know Randy of Rosarina's passed.
How good he's you know, whatkind of player, all star player
he's been. Do you realize whenyou saw that deal, you'd say he's
just a guy, just a guy. Yeah. But the truth that even
with his past this year it feelsyou know how it's like if you kind

(20:47):
of fell off a cliff overnight.You almost feel like, is it just
one of those years? Or isis you know? Rose rain is not
a kid, right A Rose Rainacame up a little a little older?
Did he is any Brian in hisI want it? Isn't he in his
early ian? When I said thirtytwo, thirty three or somewhere? Is
he in his thirties? If Ilost my mind? I mean, when

(21:07):
did you ever not? When didyou ever have your mind? That's the
real question. That's the point.He can't lose what you never had,
right exactly? Okay, though Randyrose Arena is twenty nine. Okay,
so but still he's not get hidyou know, No, that's point.
For for some reason, I thoughthe's like thirty two or early thirties,
and I thought, okay, dowe all the same? Because what happens
with the running back when he getsto thirty Brian one of my first second

(21:30):
he's downhill that year, Yeah,you bet. And he has two bad
games. Well he he doesn't havethat he can't put his foot in the
ground and doesn't have that burst anymore. And so when I went a a
are or a pitcher when it hitor gets well, thirty one thirty two
is a bad speed. So don'tknow. So he's twenty ninth, but
he he he wasn't ninety. Hewasn't twenty when he came into the league.
Right, feels like he's been aso and maybe I'm maybe I'm just

(21:53):
getting out in front of I feltlike he was a little older. That
being said, then this is anoutlier year for the way he played because
he is just not has not beenthe same guy or at twenty nine years
old. They would not have partedwith him in Tampa. They wouldn't let
it. You're not gonna give himup if you think you know you,
I mean, you're going to tryto build something for yourself going forward.

(22:14):
Twenty nine should be the staple ofyour team. Right, But maybe I'm
crazy now because we see, youknow, with the Koreas and the Springers
and teams now Mookie Betts and theDodger people are just letting guys in the
primes of their career go somewhere elseor trade him. So maybe it's hyperbolic
for me to well, at twentynine, he has still got his best
baseball in front of him. Heshould at twenty nine, and this may

(22:36):
just be an outliery' So in truth, what the Mariners banking on is that
a Rose Arena. This has justbeen a bad start to his season,
you know, bad first half.Then he'll pick it up there and he'll
go back to being the Randy RoseArena that they saw as an All Star.
So I actually thought he was abouttwo or three years older than he
is. Let's see. So ifyou remember, so a Rose Areno got
called up in twenty nineteen, hewas with the Cardinals. He had he

(23:00):
had just twenty at bats, twentythree played appearances. He was twenty four
years old. And then the COVIDseason happened in twenty twenty and we know
what he did during that season.He pretty much stole the show. Everybody
was talking about Randy Rose Arena.And then in twenty twenty one, so
again got caught up at twenty nineteen, played in the COVID season, and
then in twenty twenty one he winsthe Rookie of the Year, and there

(23:22):
was like all this discussion about howare you going to be able to give
him the Rookie of the Year whenhe's already played two seasons even though one
of them was a shortened due toCOVID. Yeah, oh, no doubt.
And because the ad bats or thenumber of how many games at the
purpose right, And you know what'scrazy, Brian, and came out,
you said twenty four going on twentyfive. I felt when he came up
that he was like twenty eight ortwenty nine. Yeah, did, But
even then, I know it's nota kid at twenty four twenty five.

(23:45):
But because we feel like you're supposedto walk, you're supposed to be schemes,
right, Oh yeah, two monthsago and now you're boom, you're
playing college baseball. Now you're you'reunhittable. So but not old, not
old. So I'm kind of I'mkind of into anxious, Brian, to
see if a Rose Arena can rediscoverRandy, a Rose Arena all star outfielder.

(24:07):
Yeah, and the Mariners definitely needsome sort of Spark because their offense
is absolutely putrid. All right,let's talk about the Houston Astros. They
are in on a couple of differentplayers. Let's go through the list.
A new picture has emerged that couldbe a trade target for the Astros.
Who is it? That's next?On Sports Talk seven to eighty, The
Sean Salisbury Show continued. I toldyou a little soccer, little golf,

(24:32):
a lot of swimming, and alot of track and field. Other than
that, you might have to fillme in. I'll watch some gymnastics too,
But yeah they did. They hadopening ceremonies right. Uh no,
that's tonight. Oh it is?Yeah, my bad. So soccer,
we talked about anybody want to goldyet? I'll ask you, says,
anybody want a gold yet? Allright, so let's take a look at
what we got going on right nowbefore the opening cerebray. Are you really

(24:55):
considered a competitor if you played anOlympic match before opening ceremonies? Uh?
Well, it doesn't really make anysense to me, Like, you have
this big grand opening, but yetyou've already had like quite a bit of
events go on at a trip.Hey, we started the Olympics. What
about the opening well Friday, butit's what I think we we it's we
equate it to a restaurant soft opening. Well let me ask you this,

(25:21):
but but now, now go throughsome of the teams that have played so
far, or if you give mesome of the events there. So this
morning at two am, you hadthe ten meter air rifle mixed team pre
event training. Okay, yes,it's okay. Then at uh not going
pre compete, Okay, your way, she'll she'll be when the when the

(25:45):
real stuff kicks in. So it'sweird. Uh is this kind of like,
uh, remember when we have likein when we play baseball, we
have an opening series, but theycount but they're really not. They really
but we still have an opening day. Yeah yeah, like they did in
Korea this year. Yeah, that'swhat kind of feels weird. Right,
yeah, yeah, that's right.Those count. But so yeah, okay,

(26:06):
so opening ceremonies or tonight, myyesterday you had let's see, you
had Argentina and Morocco in soccer.Morocco, Morocco stole that one from Argentina.
Okay, that that's fair. Moroccothat's in Argentina obviously got soccer back
that's fair. But I guess Iguess you got to get it started in

(26:27):
order to get it all in,right, I guess. Yeah, you
had rugby, you had soccer,let's see, and then on this was
actually on Wednesday, and then excuseme, yesterday you had oh man,

last one you just mentioned, Uhwell there was another one. It was

(27:15):
Norway and swedenen. Yes, women'ssoccer got got a dub they beat Zambia
three nil. Yeah, okay,So then then these pre matches in soccer,
they seem to have a lot ofthem. Our women are pretty good,
yes, so yeah, we wekid, but it almost feels like,

(27:36):
why are we playing games before theopening ceremonies. But yeah, and
events you have to in order toget all in because you don't want events
after the closing ceremonies, So youmight as well put him in leading into
it. Little teaser, a littlesoft opening. I could tell you this
though. In the Netherlands and Seveedenget together and handball women's handball. You
know what you do? You throwout all the record books, through all

(27:56):
the records. US men's ugby gotthemselves an opening match, uh Winter Winter
Chicken Palmner. They beat Uruguay thirtythree seventeen, Uh Uruguay or my gway,
you're gay. I can tell youthis. Do you think anybody in

(28:18):
the Olympics that plays rugby and thattough ass sport? We got it?
Like I said, we love ourrugby, our pro rugby team, the
SaberCats here in Houston. Unfortunate,upset, loud, tough, but tough.
You think anybody has cauliflowerer? Theymight? They might. Do you
think there will be any Olympia andthat sets up to any team for rugby?
They'll sling a little cauliflower? Areyou they could? And what's the

(28:41):
one rule? If let's say youwalk into a bar and there's a guy
sitting there with the cauliflowerer at thebar. Don't mess with the cauliflowerer.
Leave him alone. Leave alone.Yeah. If a fight breaks out and
you see that guy, yeah gobe on his side. Yeah, yeah,
you choose his eye, even ifyour buddies are the ones getting their
ass kicked by the guy with cauliflower. Here it is buddies, the rugby

(29:06):
buddies. Do yourself a favor andtell your buddies you love them because you
got their back, just not thistime, and kind of hop over to
the cauliflower side, right, Yeah, hang out with my brother played in
college and and my you know alot of pastorate. Our guy, Mike
Leach was she was a diehard rugbyfan. We've talked about it. You

(29:26):
know, he loved it. Mikefriggin loved I mean Mike at the time
you talked to him. Mike's passionfor rugby was like his passion for football.
It was crazy. But the reasonI say, it's sports show,
and you know we lost our Mic. It's gonna be weird going into another
football season without Mike Leach, justhis but with this rugby thing. Brian
they they're the toughest sobs on aplanet. Dude, Hockey's got some tough

(29:48):
guys, and football's got there's toughguys in every sport. The wrestlers.
I'm gonna tell you something. Thoserugby cats. We talked about it when
we talk about the SaberCats, andand we we you know, we joke
about the Callie Flower. I'm tellingyou, man, you have I'm not
sure you can hurt them. Andthen throwing my guys, you know,
my, my, my buddies,my Simoan buddies that play rugby. I
grew I've I've grown up with themand somebodies of mine who played, who

(30:11):
went to school with my brother,who become friends. And I'm telling you,
like at b Yu and you,they'll roll out the nicest guys in
the world. But guess what youdon't want to do. You don't want
to battle them. No, there'sno chance. You have your you're you
are you you. You could takean elephant gun times three and you ain't

(30:32):
taking them out. They're the toughest, nicest and they'll beat your brains in
and take you out for a drink. Oh hey, cool man, how's
that all good? Man, thanks, that was fun. Then they'll compete.
But those rug they you want them, you want them on your side
is my whole thing. So thisrugby thing will be uh, that'll be
a fun watch in the Olympics.Be a fun watch with rugby is a
great watch. So but yeah,a little odd that I found that did

(30:53):
we start these things before we evenhave so you, I mean, you
could be too deep two in Hey, we're two and oh and you're you're
you're walking around the track for openingceremonies, right, yeah, you're you're
you're rolling your thing through there.Yeah, and uh, excuse me.
So the opening ceremony is going tobe on that river that runs through Paris,
the same the same sign something that, yeah it's a river runs through

(31:15):
it. Yeah, that's where they'redoing it. Yeah. Yeah, so
that's pretty cool. They're gonna haveeverybody on boats. That's gonna be this
is in truth, The opening ceremoniesare gonna be sweet. That's a that
is obviously. Uh most people,if you grew up any history, know
about the river. But we're soused to guys walking around, ladies walking
around the track. I think thisis kind of be a if for no

(31:36):
other reason, a kind of acool change up pitch. Right. Oh
yeah, but the with the romanticcity. You know, you know,
I know how you like romance,right, so they're bringing a little romance
too. Oh yeah, you knowthere'd probably be a couple, you know,
couple of couples in the uh standsplaying tonsa hockey as you know,
Lebron James and Cocoa Goff have theAmerican flag, you know what I mean,
thinking out a little bit, makingout. Have you loved them kids?
Yet? You know you still don'tlove them? Sure don't know?

(32:00):
Huhuh Okay, you know, realquick before we get to break and we'll
get back to some Ashro's trade deadlinetalk. I watched the video yesterday.
You'll appreciate this one, Sean.It's a a dog on the beach mining
its own business, taking a nap, and there's a little girl, probably
six seven years old that's laying nextto the dog. But she keeps like
kicking the dog, not like likeforcefully kicking, but like playfully kicking the

(32:23):
dog. He's minding his own business, taking a nap. The dog wakes
up, stands up and starts digginga hole, throwing sand all over this
kid, and I'm like, goodas that little girl. Well, bunk
ass kid messing with the dog,sleep exactly as yeah, see the dog
instead. I'm not gonna hurt you, kid, because you're a kid and
I know that. But I'm justgonna put sand all over you to where

(32:45):
you start crying because you know what, don't kick me when I'm asleep.
Yeah, I'm just minding my ownbusiness. Just you know, catching a
vibe by the sea, by theocean, having a nap, and you
want to wake me up. It'syou know what, that's just for the
proof. Yep. There you goahead of him. And was nice of
the family to let them. Theyjust keep a good eye on their seven
year old, right, Yeah,yeah, there's that too. Nice.
Yeah. Well, poor kid,Oh well, better go jump in and

(33:07):
get the sand out of your eyes. Yeah. I was in a restaurant
last night and the the uh yeah, I did finally ate. That was
honestly, it was greaty that wasmy first meal yesterday. It's crazy since
it was since Wednesday morning. Now, I don't wear it as a badge
of honor, but I found Okay, I'm ready to eat now after no
slip good, But there was akid that parents wouldn't stop yelling. Would

(33:28):
let the kids stop you, Oh, they're caring on their conversations like those
people here. I get it,you know, maybe the kid's not feeling
well. The kid was fine.After I got up, I took a
look see over there, and Ithought, oh, the kid's fine,
you know, because I always takean account. What if the kids stopped
feeling well or you know, notgetting attention, but kept yelling and yelling.
I'm thinking, man, if ifyou came into this restaurant you were
have no patience, you'd be likeyou'd want to it's not the kid.

(33:49):
You want to go to parents andstate maybe the out loud screaming in a
fairly nice restaurant, they could toneit down. And I'm not that guy
normally. And I didn't say anythingbecause I always signed understand kids. I
don't hate them like you do.I love kids, but you hate that
I do. Yeah, but youwould have looked at me, honestly,
you would look at me and said, dude, now you know why I
hate them kids exact It's exactly right. It was. It was that one

(34:10):
thing I was thinking about your ticket, yep. I hate him too?
Right now? Can I just eatmy chicken palm without the screech going on
every thirty two seconds? Great,there you go, that'd be great.
It would be next time you kicksaying on him too. I'm gonna carry
sand in my pockets. There yougo, throw it on them. Yeah,
keep it in your pocket. That'swhat I'm saying. Thank you,
say it again. If you startyour you know what, you're taking me

(34:34):
to the dark side. I'm gettingclose. Welcome them kids, man,
We welcome you with open arms.Look at you. The Brian Laiba cult.
Damn right, come on, brother, we got room there. Oh
yeah, hey, there is roomon that boat, but it's filling up
fast. I can tell you thatsuious seven seven ninety is the number to
join. The Astros could be targetinga local kid playing in the NL Central

(35:00):
as a potential pitcher to bolster thisstaff. Who is it that's next?
The Sean Salisbury Show continues, Roger, I got a question for you,
man. Yeah, do you listento You listened to seven ninety all day?
Every day? Do you all day? Not three o'clock? Okay?

(35:23):
Do you do you have an issuewith one of Matt Thomas's callers, the
guy from New York. He callsyou Roger Rabbit, Yeah, something like
that. Oh my god. Okayhe told you you know this shuts your
bumb ass up segment they do.Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

(35:45):
yeah yeah. He called you outyesterday during that. So I was just
curious if it was the same Rogerthat called Shawn and I yeah, well
you know he did. He needsto find a bigger platform. You know,
every time he every time he called, it's the same wash Rent repeat.
I mean, he said, yougonna call about a New York take.
Have a freaking different different subjects,not always about the Yankees. One

(36:06):
one one. This just a onedeal, you know, one trick pony
and then you know, a littleyou know, they're a little u little
versus all in your take. Youknow, he's always the same thing.
And he sounds like Leo gets fromfreaking uh lethal weapons. Yeah, okay,

(36:28):
okay, okay, anything anything,it's the same thing. Okay,
An, I'm getting my breakfast overhere. Yeah, I just got to
I had a take on on onethe trade deadline. This thing is taking
forever. This is going around likea part in the church. Why is
it taking so long for us todo any transaction. I'm talking about every

(36:50):
team, about the board. It'sbecause I think these guys are squeezing everybody
so hard that the Creeds tables,the Creek Siveries that was going through the
roof, specially Dana Brown. He'sgonna try to find some kind of fix
to, you know, to movingforward to the playoffs. Man, but
I really think it's gonna cost morethan we expected. We're talking maybe some
young arms like Eric Yett he mightbe gone, maybe Bloss might be gone.

(37:13):
And uh, man, I hateto say it, man, but
you know who's a really big commodityevery team would have, especially in the
playoffs, freaking de Bond. Thatwould be horrible. But man, I'm
thinking, I'm thinking they're gonna wantsomething like that, and that's gonna be
you know, like they're they're sayingit's gonna hurt. Man, He's really
gonna hurt this time because we havenothing. We have nothing in the chamber

(37:34):
as far as the farm system.So that's what I was thinking, guys,
that that's that's why I think thisis this transaction movement has been so
slow. Thank you for the call. Rogers don't let h don't let New
York whatever his name is, getyou down, buddy. Oh not on
my watch, appreciated Rodger. Enjoyyour weekend, buddy. How about you
just say I didn't see it,but oh well, let me let it
in. Hear, well, letme let me refresh you just to fire

(37:57):
him up on a Friday while youget breakfast. Look at you, he
trying to get his he trying toget his him pumped up. He didn't
hear you're saying, well, here, let me be there, let me
be let me throw the eraser atthe teacher. Yeah, like, dude,
I was. Look, I was. I was driving home yesterday and
I'm listening to Matt and Ross onthe Matt Thomas Show, uh noon to
three here on Sports Talk seven highty, by the way, and they do

(38:20):
this segment that's called shut your bambass up or we don't have time for
that, where where they open upthe phone lines and let the guys or
women call in and complain about whateverthey want to complain about. And this
guy from New York apparently, Iguess he's like a regular with the Matt
Thomas Show. He's a transplant fromNew York and he's been in here in
the city for a while and Idon't know what happened, but all I
heard was him going off on atangent about Roger Rabbin. I was like,

(38:40):
man, it's got to be Rogerthat calls me and Sean and this
guy just kept going on and onand on and uh. He said something
like I thought the H in Houstonstands for hospitality and humble and all this
other stuff. And he's like,in this Roger guy, he just needs
to keep his name out of mymouth. And he kept going going on
and on. I was like,man, I got to ask Roger if

(39:01):
he calls in tomorrow. It wasit was, uh, it was entertaining
to say the least, is thislike a wide receiver and a defensive back
battling on Twitter? Good gracious prettymuch? So Rogers said not on my
watch. Yeah, he said,Rinse Washington repeat is all that guy ever
does. So they're uh and Iknow that exact voice he's talking about with

(39:22):
PESHI on Uh if you watch thosewell never mind, yeah, yeah,
you ain't watch mel Gibson and Glover. You've not Have you ever seen any
of those? I have? Yeah, I have yeah, what's the name
of the series. Uh, it'snot top not Uh what is it?
Uh not naked gun? Oh mygosh, lethal weapons. Sorry, you've

(39:44):
seen him. I've seen one ofthem. It's been years, though.
I like Beverly Hills cop Over.Uh, you can like both. You
get more than one TV. Youwatched two games at once, right,
you can still like two different movies. Did not the same that have different
actors. Yeah, but I likeI just like, uh Eddie Murphy better
Ed Murphy. Yeah, Edward Yeah, yeah, So Roger got after a

(40:05):
little bit. But he's talking aboutthose trades Brian and you know, you
know, you know the guy whosename has been on my wish list for
a while and I and you know, first of all, back to Dubon,
I don't think they're moving to bondto you. They've been preaching Swiss
army. He gives you injury leewayif something were to happen, it's five
or six different positions. He coversyour ass. So I now, I
think Roger's right. I think they'llinquire, but I think that I don't

(40:28):
want to say he's untouchable because asa utility guy, I mean, if
you got just got to hurt.It's got to hurt. But you didn't
ring a let mis Diaz in todo that, okay, and he didn't
replace in Dubon. You know,he was there kind of that guy Dubon's
that I think. I don't knowif that'd be the guy that people covet,
but you'd like Dubon on your team. And I'm sure Debond like play
every day. But I don't thinkhe's going anywhere. But when Roger talked

(40:49):
about why it's taken so long,and he is right. Teams are going
to hold others hostage. That's theway it works. You're gonna milk as
much as you can to get outof it. But Ran, you know
the name on the list. Icoveted this trade. So I'm with Roger
on that, trying to get somethingdone, but you got it takes two
to tango. As we mentioned,you know who I want, and I
don't know if he's going to beavailable with the way that they're now,
they're you know they're hanging around isright down the interstate, brother, right

(41:10):
up the interstate. When his name'spopped up around a little bit in the
former Texas guy, you give mehim in the rotation. If they're willing
to part with him, and youcan get him in the division from a
team in the division, you knowwho I want. You know a name
that I've that I've been begging for. Damn right, I am? You

(41:31):
are damn right, I am.I can't see. I don't think that
Rangers are going to part with twoor three pitchers like the talk a month
ago, Right right, Brian,Yeah, I don't think that's happening.
I know we got to get thebreak, but that's something that we can
discuss. I heard his name comeup again yesterday. I don't see it
happening. But if you told mewe can have him for seven innings the
rest of the way, everything Imean, because he is a warrior eye,

(41:52):
he's a bulldog man Chops. Yeah, he's pitched his ass off.
Let's get to the top of thehour. We'll keep on talking about this
Astros trade deadline. Next on SportsTalk seven KD Houston, ABHD two Houston.
I heard radio station, the exclusiveaudio home of NBC's coverage of the
twenty twenty four Paris Olympics. Thisis Sports Talk seven ninety the Rockets,

(42:16):
your home for your home teams drivenby the classic elite view a GMC Studios
for the elite car buying experience.Salisbury, Aby Salsbury, Houston. Okay,
let's do this. Sean Salisbury toUSC Troupes, longtime friend, Shawn

(42:40):
Salisbury, Ryan Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sean Salsbury show.
And Sewan this name. We talkedabout it just a couple of days ago.
Now it's getting more validity. Channthe Rome, Ken Rosenthal, and
Patrick Mooney of the Athletic All threereported yesterday late yesterday that the Astros are

(43:04):
interested in acquiring Chicago Cubs starter JamisonTye on yep, ahead of the Major
League Baseball trade deadline. Also interestedin tie On the Yankees, your Red
Sox, and the Houston Astros.So he's uh, he's got two years
left on his deal. He hadunrestricted free agency in twenty twenty seven.

(43:30):
I believe his contract is like eighteena year, which is which is not
overboard. Yeah, about eighteen yearsthe skills, yep, let's see he's
his last four starts. He's threeand zero with a one point one ERA,
which which will if you were bypatif you were just staring at him

(43:53):
with one eye. The last threestarts have made you go, whoa that
we're looking at a guy who's gettingright and on a team that's trying to
move people. Remember when they talkedabout it, Brian, if we don't
get hot in seven games, we'regoing, you know, we're gonna start
to think about moving pieces. Soyeah, and he's been lights out.

(44:15):
And you mentioned the numbers in thoselast three starts. I can tell you
last three or four starts is here'sthe problem. And what we discussed two
months ago. The longer you waitand the long end kind of goes with
that. Roger was saying, otherteams, as you get closer, the
desperation kicks in, so the competitiongets more stiff because you're like, if

(44:36):
you're the Yankees, you need somehelp for a team that started so hot.
If you're the Red Sox, you'rein it. One more arm may
be WHOA, Okay, maybe wecan go take the division or at least
chase down get ourselves in a reallygood wild card position because Baltimore is the
best team in the division. Butthat's so bunched together. Somebody go,
you can go on a losing streakin that division, just like can't anywhere
else and that's a gauntlet in theirdivision. So, Brian, listen,

(45:00):
I the problem is who the teamsyou named have bigger what payrolls, and
it seemed in the past be Imean, I almost feel like they'd act
more on desperation, you know whatI'm saying than the Astros would. Does
that make sense? Yeah? Thatthat they that they would just like they
would pay more in free agency.It almost feels like that they would,

(45:21):
they'd be willing to do something alittle And I'm not saying in a smart
way at times, I'm saying ina way that says, Okay, we're
gonna well you raised this, We'regoing to raise you and uh, we're
going to see and raise you aplayer or two more. So that's the
problem. Those names you mentioned thatare interested in him make the competition.
If I it's not money doesn't comeinto play right now. It comes into

(45:43):
play as players. Are you willingand who has more assets to give up
and who's willing to take that riskto go get a really good arm and
a guy who and if all threeof those guys Chandler and you mentioned,
who else was it? Kenny Rosenthal, that's not a there you go,
that's not just smoke. That whenwhen it's one guy, you say,
okay, I'm not saying one guydoesn't know. But when there's more that

(46:06):
have the sources, three or fouror five guys are saying it, they're
getting it from their sources. Andyou know Chandler Room does a hell of
a job. And then you knowRosenthal's around baseball. So when that many
names, I mean that many,you know, people around baseball are talking.
There's it's not just just a littlebit of smoke. There's probably some
fire there. So but the questionis can you outbid somebody? That's really

(46:28):
what it comes down to. You'rein an auction right now, Brian,
When you get this close, it'san auction. You know how you hold
up the sign five thousand, fivethousand gets you ten thousand. You know
this player Dubon, Dubon, Youwant mcormick, McCormick, Okay, we
got mcormick. How about Pedro LambAnd they're holding up signs man. That
that that's what it comes down to. If if a player has three or
four teams that are willing to bid, he it's just like in free agency

(46:50):
with money and the highest bidder walksaway. Okay, sold, Well,
here you go. And are theygoing to be able to and will it
force the Astros to give up anextra bu that they absolutely don't want to
give up for an arm who's really, really good. They're gonna have to,
Unfortunately, they're gonna have to ifthey want to try to make a
run at this division and then tryto get back to the Alcs and eventually

(47:13):
the World Series, they're going tohave to give up something. What if
they'd have made this this kick inat the beginning of July. What if
they have said, you know what, we see the forest through the trees,
let's go get him. That's aguy, let's go make a trade,
and the and the Cubs at thatpoint in time like, yeah,
well, we've talked about it publiclythat if we don't get on a roll,

(47:35):
right, we're gonna trade. Whatif they'd have done it? But
the competition has been a stuff?Or are they going to get The closer
it gets the more the more,the more you're gonna have to bid.
Yeah, you're gonna have to bidmore, I think because I'm saying the
panic factor is going to start toset in right, a little bit of
desperation. And what Steve Sparks sayevery week we bring up trade, you

(47:57):
do not have to operate out ofdesperation urgency. Maybe that's my word,
but Steve said, any say dothey I've asked and they have to make
a move. He goes, Seanhave to feels desperate, and you and
in anything we do in life nowsometimes like you're in desperate situations you drop
back at the fifty yard line andthrow a hail Mary and get a touchdown.
That that got a little lucky.Those don't happen all the time,
all though it seems like more thanever those are happening in football. But

(48:22):
desperation is not a good way tooperate, whether it's trade deadline, whether
it's contract off or desperation you startdoing anything in our life, desperate got
to get your late running behind schedule, and so you desperately drive a little
faster. I mean it just itdoesn't work. And when it comes to
trading or looking at something, allof a sudden you're at the eleventh hour
and you say, oh, I'ma desperation kicks in and then you say
I did not want to give himup? What are we doing here but

(48:44):
you? And it happens all thetime in pro sports when it comes to
going after a player. So,but that's why I'm saying a month ago,
when all the trades, when theyknew that Brian two months ago,
they knew they needed arms? AmI right or wrong? Yeah? Right
on that? I mean that thatyou're you can't hold it. Well,
let's hope that Bloss becomes a start. You knew you needed arms, correct,

(49:04):
And I know you've got to havesomebody to deal with you. But
had you had jumped out in frontof this, don't you think that it
wouldn't be as heated? Tell me, tell me the last four starts also
don't have something to with the wayit's heated up? Of course they do
for the way he's pitched, correct, I mean he's he's bus sub two
E r A. You said,right, yeah, and he's won three
games. Doesn't recency bias come intoplay too? Have you? When you

(49:27):
watch tape of him, it's like, yeah, what have they done for
me lately? That's he's electrifying rightnow? So what do you do?
You're all You're all over it,You're all over it. So uh,
probably it's gonna it's the old framoil filter for the old school folks who
know you can pay me now orpay me later. If you don't,
if you don't get your oil filterchange for a handful of dollars, you'll
throw a rod and your your engineblows out and it costs you a lot

(49:50):
more. But if you'll just goget your little dumb ass up and go
change oil filters in your vehicle andit costs you ten bucks instead of two
thousand, three thousand dollars, samething here. Say you pay me now
or pay me later, or hadyou have gone and done it maybe a
tad sooner any of these teams.I just tell me. And I know
you're trying to see how your clubturns out in Garcia and mcullor's I think

(50:14):
you. I don't think you couldcount on mccullor's injury situation months ago,
and you hoped, but Lante,it's it's a tough comeback, so Ran,
it's it's that's what is now.You're gonna pay me more now than
you would have if you'd may morelater, meaning now than had you had
done it at the beginning and justchanged the oil filter for ten bucks.
You probably would have got it different. Yep. And now we're gonna have

(50:35):
to wait until well, hopefully theycan get a deal, maybe this weekend
or Monday, but tuesday's that deadline. And I just think that, you
know, the closer we get,you're gonna see teams have more of a
sense of urgency and even a panicfactor setting and give up an extra player.
Yeah, that they didn't want togive up. We see it every
year, You're damn right, wedo. We see it. We see
it every single year. All right, let's get to the stakeout right here

(50:59):
on the Sean Salisbury Show that's comingup next. Let me talk to you
about Classic Elite GMC Buick GMC.It's over there off the Kadie Freeway,

(01:02:06):
with nobody else on the other sidein my in my pool here on this
trip. So what do you wantto try to flip that script? Do
you want us to be plowboys orpool boys? Well, isn't it kind
of the same thing? No,because pool boys pull plowboys, don't.
I mean they're just out there workingor whatever. Dude, listen, okay,

(01:02:28):
you're a plowboy. If you're aplowboy, uh huh, there's the
people. The women love the countryboys. A plowboy, you got cowboys
and plowboys. Yes, that's you. I mean, if you had a
choice, you say, well,I want to be a plowboy. No,
so you want to be a plowboy, go out and farm? They
pull? What are you kidd me? They're simple, they're hard working.
They're up at four like we are. But they're out doing blue collar work.

(01:02:49):
We're just simply talking on a radiowith all right, but but but
but the the the housewives of likeBeverly Hills or I don't know now or
the Woodlands, they love their poolboys. No, yeah, but for
what for all? For all eightseconds they last, they'll think, O,
the plow boy stop? Yeah,who give you a break? Pull

(01:03:12):
boy? That that's cosmetic pool boy? Right? So what what what makes
a pool boy? Here's what?What's that? What makes a plowboy better
than a pool boy? Uh?The the hard I was gonna say.
I was gonna say, the callousis on their hands, some hard work,
yeah I was. The boys areout there working, pool boys pull.

(01:03:35):
Pool boys out there working. Yeah, but his works a little bit
different than the plowboy. Right.Okay, so the pool boys out there
trying to pull, like you said, pull the ladies at the pool.
Uh huh okay, I'm looking formore substance play. Cowboys got that too,
So why are you down? You'redown? You seem to be a

(01:03:58):
little pool boy leaning as opposed tocowboys and plowboys. Yeah, because you
were Okay, you're you're if youwere, if you were a chick,
You're okay, here we go.I mean, you've pulled guys before,
So tell me if you would yourather if anybody's pulling guys, it's you.
We know who I can't. That'sa damn good point. Who would

(01:04:19):
you pull a pool boy or acowboy like you're going and say you want
to sustained relationship? What? Uh? I think you're probably probably one You're
going pull boy probably, which whichcuts me so deep because you know what,
knowing it's not who, that's notwho I thought you were. Yeah,

(01:04:39):
yeah, but knowing a cowboy andtheir plowboys and all that, they
like, you know, no hardpassed. They probably got a couple of
teeth. No, you live inTexas and you just you just right then
and there said, call those guyswho are bringing your nice farm food and
busting their ass. Okay, thoseare harvesting season those are plowboys. Are

(01:05:01):
we talking cowboys? There's a there'sa clear difference. And there's a difference
between a cowboy and a plowd There'sa difference between a cowboy and a farmer.
Cowboys are farmers. They're out thereharvesting crops. Plow cowboys out there
breaking horses. You know, therethere's difference. That's why the song with
with party and Luke Bryan. Yes, when one likes beer, one may

(01:05:24):
like whiskey. They're harvesting. Soyou just said cowboys and plowboys have no
teeth, like they're all from Westerncouple. And I just ripped West Virginia's
which is not fair for bullets andcowboys. You're living you're living in Texas,
and you already said cowboy, andyou you did the You put cowboys

(01:05:44):
and plowboys like they're the same person. Do you know where I went careers?
Do you know where I went tocollege? I know exactly, I
just I drove by it on theway here. That's the soul raw State
University, Division two State university.Plenty of cowboys there, all right?
Well that well, oh right,okay, because you went to school there,
you can still rip them, Yourip them you they have two teeth?

(01:06:08):
No, No, I said,maybe maybe they got a couple.
Yeah, maybe, which means theymight not have any They make gum you
to death. You're saying, okay, yeah, and guy, you're you're
you're your man. Disappointing that you'rechoosing pool boys, but that's who you
are, cosmetic, You know whatyou have, You have substance to you
anymore. They don't like that's alltalk. They don't like pool boys.

(01:06:32):
Who doesn't. They'll they may lookat them while they're like they're out there
working their pool, but when itgets right down to the grit and grind
of it, pool boys ain't itfor them? Just for the zoids.
Man, you got them overrated.Over Rated pool boys will be the type

(01:06:55):
of you know, they'll go forit then all of a sudden, yeah
they can't. They mean they're likegoing like a forty seven game losing streak,
Triple Phil. Feel free to weighin on this one. You don't
want to cowboys, plowboys, coolboys, pool boys. Shawn even asked
me if I was a chick,who would I pull? Tell me?
Would you choose the plowboy and thepool boys well, actually, it was

(01:07:17):
stupid me to ask you that becausechick or guy, I know who you're
pulling, plow boys or pool boys. Should I say something else? That's
a Now that's the truest statement ofthis segment. You ain't lying. Yeah,
yeah, but that's everything. One, but how triple How about Brian
saying cowboys may have two teeth acouple, they may have a couple.

(01:07:40):
A couple is two, okay,the few is three or more couple too.
So hey man, great Brian wouldbe great to see at the rodeo
when they walk up in their cowboysgood people and you say, hey man,
you got your teeth? Let mesee. Oh but there's the pool
boy serving lemonade to somebody. Getthe hell out of damn. Right now
we're talking. You got you know, you got a pretty housewife that says,
you know, actually she offers thepool boy lemonade. Okay, I'm

(01:08:03):
telling you this, and next thingyou know, it's got a bunch of
Vodkan and she's trying to get youdrunk. Boom, there you go.

Sean Salisbury continues on seven ninety.Zach Dezenzo also one of the top
prospects. He was elevated to tripleA. So last night some of the
top names in the minor leagues forthe Astros were in the starting lineup for

(01:11:21):
Sugarland Shay Whitcomb, Zach Dezenzo,Pedro Leone, Jacob Melton, and then
obviously you had Greg Kessinger getting somerun down Triple A. He was at
the big league level not playing alot, so they moved him back down
and he was swinging it. Somy question to you, Sean, is
with that trade deadline looming, andfrom what I understand, these guys were

(01:11:44):
moved up so scouts from other teamscould take a look at them. There
were some scouts from other teams atthe ballpark last night into sugar Lands.
My question to you is, doyou think these guys will be the ones
that are moved at the trade deadline? Brian, I think that the showcase
is this. Do you think it'scoincidental? Not at all. Let's just

(01:12:05):
start. No, it's it's ashowcase. And I would imagine you can
bet Dana Brown's told us that youdon't give up good players and get bad
players. At least that's hope,right, meaning you don't trade somebody that's
not a prospect or somebody that youcan just sell. Oh, no big
deal, This is just a guyin your organization. For a frontline pitcher.

(01:12:30):
You got to give up some goodplayers. And usually they like control,
and they like them young, okay, and they want prospects. Well
all of a sudden, so wejust sent a you know, a Ferrari
filled with the top notch, thetop players Leon Melton and sent them up.
So they're all playing together and andwhere you can see them all in
one fell swoop going into a coupleof ballpark for a couple of days in

(01:12:54):
a row. This is it's notby accident, so I don't they're not
moving all of them obviously, butit's almost like here's our we're walking you
down the catwalk. Man, hereyou go, which one and then you've
got to decide which one or twothat you don't want to give up?
And how deep are you going?Because I asked Dana Brown on Wednesday.
Brown, it wasn't just when heasked, when he said, you know,

(01:13:15):
you may get a three or fourguy in that rotation. I said,
have you tried to get a oneor a two? He said,
oh, yeah, we're trying andsome don't want to part with him,
but it's also expensive and so yes, I think what you've heard and the
same here when they start to paradehim out like that, it doesn't take
any you know, a deep baseballhard psychological look into it, into the

(01:13:40):
skull to find out that, ofcourse they want You've got to showcase so
people can see. I think theyknow him, but you want them in
the same place. Now we sithere and cringe over a man. We're
going to really part with Melton ifsomebody wants them, but they're going to
call on low Berffito up at thebig league level. They're going to call
on Melton already, have you knowit? Uh? Pedro Leone all these

(01:14:00):
as we discussed Peter Leone and withwith Dana Brown as well, simply saying
why hasn't he got run? Hesays he's gonna get run? Well,
is that run with somebody else?With the Astros? So it's yeah,
Brian there, this isn't by chancein late July, with a trade deadline
looming next Tuesday, that we justthey just happen to be in a position

(01:14:20):
where people can get a look atthem. Yeah, I would prepare for
if you want what you want,meaning our fans and you and me and
even the Astros organization. If youwant what you want, you're gonna have
to give what you don't want togive. Let's just put it that way.
I think what you just are.Yeah, I think what fans and

(01:14:40):
we need to understand is that someof these popular names down in the minor
leagues are going to be moved,and there's also probably gonna be a big
leaguer for the Astros that are moved. But yet they're just that's what I
mean. Yeah, you're gonna haveto give them up. They're just prospects.
Like I I understand why people orfans might be concerned of oh,
why you know, let's say PageLeon does get moved. Oh he was

(01:15:01):
raking in Triple A. Why didn'tyou get run up here? Now we're
trading him? That's just dumb.Well, it's every year. Prospects are
gonna be trade That's why they're prospects. They're not proven yet. You're looking
at potential over production and that ifthat's what's gonna be the piece to get
you someone that's proven with production,then you're gonna have to make that move.

(01:15:21):
It's like we talked yes two daysago, you and I about Jake
Myers. If people call in onJake Myers and he's the piece that gets
you Tark Schooble from Detroit, anasty left hander that can be in your
rotation, you have to do it. Same thing with these prospects. Of
course you do, Brian. Youand I have been on the same page

(01:15:41):
for a long time when it comesto this giving up. I'm a win
now guy, Brian. Always,especially when you're in position to win now,
right, you go milk these thingsas often. I mean, it's
hard where the Astros are in theirfranchise to do what they done the last
seven years is not normal. TheAtlanta Braves, we could put it's not

(01:16:02):
normal. They're the outlier. Soyou keep capitalizing on windows and but prospects
are great to have, you loveto have. But why do you have
prospects, Brian? And when youget an overload of prospects, why do
people have them? Two reasons?You guys are not good, so they
could no. But also, wellthere's there's a third reason that that they're
in the minors for a reason.Either they're ready to come up or the

(01:16:23):
guy at their position is a reallygood player and you're not going to break
in yet, so they got toget you at bats Corey Lee and now
who's playing for somebody else but theand got bypassed by Diaz. But the
other two things are one is you'repreparing them to be great on your franchise
or you have a lot of themto be able to do what package them
to go get a veteran hence ZachGrinkey for five, right, Brian.

(01:16:45):
Yeah, So point is you andI have always been on the same page.
And as a coach it probably isin your blood. For me,
as a coach and a player,it's in my blood. Don't talk to
me about twenty twenty nine, dude, I don't care. I'll be honest.
I care about that. We're allalive and kicking and having a blast
when it comes to caring for thetwenty twenty nine season with a prospect,
now, I want I want thatKyle Tucker or Jordan to be here through

(01:17:06):
twenty twenty nine. If you're askingme that point. But if you're saying,
well this guy, how double asean, we should be thinking about
what's gonna happen in twenty twenty eight. I don't care. It's four years
from now. By that time,there's another kid right now who's a high
school freshman that's gonna be a thatsix years from now is going to be
a top prospect. Right Bryan,there's another Jackson Holiday out there, so
you go find him. You know, you get the generational guy like Jordon

(01:17:27):
Well, then he's up at thebig league level and he's putting up Hall
of Fame numbers. But for me, I'm with you. If they got
a part with one, Okay,do you want to win now or do
you want to Well, let's holdon to him for four more years because
now, if you're a mid Amid team, you're not gonna do it.
But if you're sitting on the custody, do you think Dana Brown just
wants to go come short of aWorld Series again? This is his time
as a GM to shine and getanother World Series ring for a franchise that

(01:17:49):
he wants to get his first year. So you always want to win.
And if you're a win now thing, they're in position to win. So
I'm with you, Well it hurts, I'll take a sting rather than I
will and ask swhopping? How's thatmake? How's that? Give me the
sting more than I will a punchto the friggin face fifteen times? If
I got to go get one ofthose top line pitchers and give up a

(01:18:09):
prospect or two, and it's gonnagive me a better chance to win a
ring now as opposed to worrying aboutit four years now. They'll find prospects
four years from now, they'll draftthem, they'll go get them. They
just will you give me that picturenow, I'll part with a prospect,
sorry to tell you now, dependingon who it is, but I'm not
hoarding all of them. If Ican get one, I'm not leaving it

(01:18:30):
in the drawer. The drawer.The prospect in the drawer that prevents me
from winning title. If it's JakeMyers or Melton that got to go,
or one of those guys on thebig league level, they got to go
to get me scooball or to getme someone like that. Guess what's happening,
brother, You and I are goingafter the ring. Now give me
one ring instead of four maybes.I'll take the ring. Yeah, give
me the ring now, give methat problems now and real quick, before

(01:18:53):
we get into the eight o'clock hour. What I meant by the prospects and
not being good, that usually meansif you have a plethora of prospects,
that means you're organization hasn't won ina while, and you've got all these
prospects down in double a trip atrying to get up to the major leagues
because your franchise hasn't been good.Like the Orioles, they weren't good.
That's how they're able to have allof these, you know, for the
lack of a better term, allthese basic white guys Ryan that are coming

(01:19:14):
up and playing because they weren't goodand they had all those draft picks.
And it applies right here too tothe Rockets. Why do you keep getting
top picks and lottery type picks becauseyou sucked? Yeah, exactly Now you're
getting them and now they're going tocome to fruition and you start winning.
So you're exactly right. You getall those because you're picking first all the
time, or you're picking second allthe time. You don't want to keep
picking first or second. Eventually,you want to get to the point where
you're picking later, because that meansyou're getting rings give me the ring over

(01:19:39):
three other possibilities. I'm taking thering all day because guess what, if
you get one in your career,you're frigging lucky. Yeah, yeah,
absolutely, all right. There's actuallya new report that just came out about
ten minutes ago in regards to theAstros, Braves and Cardinals that are looking
at a pitcher. He is inthe Al East. Who could be?
That's next? ABM E Houston,ADHD TW Houston, my Heart radio station,

This is Sports Talk seven ninety TheAstros, the Rockets, Rockets Fall,

(01:20:33):
Okay, let's do this. SeanSalisbury to usc true longtime friend,
Shawn Salisbury, Ryan l Lima,Go Lobos. This is the Sean Salisbury
Show. A bit of a newreport here in regards to the Houston Astros
and that trade deadline which is comingup on July thirtieth, That is just

(01:20:58):
four days away. It's on Tuesday, day. It will be a five
pm Central deadline six o'clock Eastern.There's been some reports out of the Astros
are targeting Jamison tie On from theCubs, one of the pitchers up in
shy Town. Now, according toyou get him, I'm going to tie
one on you are. Yeah,he's a local kid the Woodlands High School.

(01:21:20):
Yeah. I actually faced him ina non district game when he was
a freshman and I was a senior, and he was pumping like ninety two
already as a as a freshman,Woodlands guy'd be great. You got you
know, Polly Walnuts is a Woodlandsguy. They do some players, Paul
Goldsmith, so they got some players. Man, did what you faced him?
Did he? Did he throw somecheese at you? He did?

(01:21:42):
Yeah. As a freshman, hewas sitting, like I said, like
ninety ninety two as a freshman,so like a fifteen year old. Pretty
impressive. That's a fifteen sixteen yetpumping it at ninety plus. It ain't
bad man. Yeah, and Ithink by his senior year he was at
like ninety six ninety seven. Itsucked to be him, didn't it.
Yeah, Yeah, it sucks tobe him. So apparently according to Mark

(01:22:03):
Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times,he's reporting this morning that the Astros,
Braves, and Cardinals are quote amongthe teams expected to have strong interest in
right handed pitchers. Zach Effln notto be confused with Zach Efron and not

(01:22:23):
to be confused with f them kids. Zach Efflin sean six' six.
I know he is this season fiveand seven with a four point zero nine
ERA. He's tossed one hundred andten innings, appeared in nineteen games,
started all nineteen, which is see, which tells you he's dring not missing

(01:22:45):
any time, right, yep.And he's uh, let's see, he's
surprised. I mean, we've heardhis name. I just smattered, you
know, kind of smattered around thelast from I think it's been about a
month. But nothing, you knowthat's been overly like substantial. Well,
here you go. And that wouldn'tshock me either, because his name's been
talked about about being moved. Butif it's that realistic, there's the Astros

(01:23:09):
in you said the Astros, andwould you say Astros, Cardinals and who
else? Braves? Braves in ona good pitcher who logs innings and has
potential to even be better, especiallyif you're on a team that can rake,
and two of the three teams atleast we know can rake and the
Cardinals obviously have improved from their start, so that doesn't surprise me. I
mean, you've talked about an inningseater we have, but also a guy

(01:23:32):
who's not just an innings eater,but an innings eater who can give you
more. And I think he's oneof those guys as well. Yeah,
so they're going to get somebody,But I said two of them wouldn't hurt
my feelings. I want to Imean, man, they need to agreed
in Just Zach Efflin, he's beenin the league since he was twenty two
years old, which was back intwenty sixteen. He's been in the league

(01:23:53):
for nine years, spend the majorityof his time from twenty sixteen to twenty
twenty two with the Philadelphia Phillies.Most innings he's pitched in his career was
last year with the Rays one hundredand seventy seven and two thirds innings.
He's got one, two, three, four five different seasons out of his
nine years, so fifty percent wherehe throws over one hundred and ten innings.

(01:24:16):
Hey, didn't we see him inthe World Series against this here?
Didn't don't remember, wasn't he?Yeah he was when he was Yeah,
he was a play I mean,I know, I know he was in
Philly, but I'm talking about hewas, I mean, a formidable pitcher
then. So this I get whyyou why the Astras want something to do
with him, right, Yeah,So let's see back in. Yeah,

(01:24:41):
he appeared in game one, Gamefour, Game five, and Game six
of the World Series in twenty twentytwo. He was in there a bunch.
So there you go. And whenyou see him a lot, you're
used to it and think he's gotstuff. And nine years is about that.
That's about a that's that tells methat you've got longevity. And it
also tells me that you're and tellsme that you're right in the prime of
who he is. So that's agood thing. I like it. In

(01:25:03):
the World Series. I think that'sa sneaky good get. In the World
Series, he gave up Between thoseoutings, he gave up just four hits,
no runs, only one walk,struck out five struck out seven.
He yeah, tempting and the Braveshave World Series aspirations the Cardinals. Hey,

(01:25:25):
isn't it amazing how quickly they've gonefrom sell and sell and selling.
We're getting rid of this guy.We're getting rid of that guy. But
Brian, we talked, remember atthe beginning, we talk about at the
beginning of the year, when wedon't make our predictions. Yeah, the
Cardinals somehow, some way, youknow, they'll hang around. And they
always seem to find a way towhen you say, right the ship put
themselves in position great baseball town,but to just kind of just kind of

(01:25:48):
hang in. And here they aretalking about people now are in discussions of
bringing a guy like Eflyn there asopposed to moving players on. So yeah,
man, and when it's pitching,dude, people will stand in line
for hours for pitching for paying,and it's going to be the bids of

(01:26:08):
the bids will start in. TheAstros aren't going to have an easy path
to get the guy they want.Yeah. So the Cardinals are six back
in the Central but they are rightthere in the wild card. Again,
that NL wildcard is a it's ait's a nightmare. Cardinals are half a
game back in America. Wildcare isgoing to cook americanly wild card is gonna
be a bitch too. Yeah,well, yeah it really is. Yeah,

(01:26:30):
you've got so in the NL asof right now, the Braves have
the first wild card, but thenafter that you got the Mets, the
Padres, the Cardinals, the diamondbackBacks, the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Cincinnati
Reds, the Giants, the Cubs. They are all basically within five games
of a wildcard spot, all ofthem, with a couple of them half

(01:26:54):
a game back, others a gameand a half or a game. And
then the rest are four and ahalf and five. That's on the NL
side, and then on the ALside, the Yankees are three and a
half ahead in the first spot.But then you got the Twins, the
Royals, the Red Sox all agame out, and then the Mariners,
the Tampa Bay Rays, the Rangers, the Tigers, all five or five

(01:27:14):
and a half out, So they'reall right in striking distance too. And
put the Astros in there too becausethey're in that fight as well. They're
going to be in that fight.So you know, whether it's division or
for wild cards, So it's gonnabe a hell of both leagues are gonna
have We're gonna have a hell ofa run here in the second half,
and that's why all this pitching.Yeah, people are going to stand in
line to go get it. Yeah, there's there's a lot of movement that's

(01:27:35):
going to take place in the nextthree four days with this trade deadline.
All right, let's talk a littlefootball. You know, Sean, I
know you bet you were traveling allday yesterday and we hit on it briefly.
Did you, by chance see thefootage of the skirmish that happened at
Texans training camp a couple days ago? I did, but it was just

(01:27:57):
kind of it was I glossed overit, you know. And I know
what you're talking about, the Stingley, Yes, yeah, so on a
on a hit, Yeah, yeah, I'd like to talk about that,
but so yeah, i'd like toWe'll dive deeper with you. How's that?
Yeah? That that's that's fantastic becauseuh, we, like I said,
we hit on it yesterday and andI know Stan had some really passionate
takes about that whole incident. ButI think I want to dive in with

(01:28:20):
a different angle more than just theStingley and Dalton Schultz thing. It also
has to kind of go into likewhat the defense is trying to prove at
training camp, if there is anif there even is something that they need
to prove. So let's talk aboutthe Texans and that dust up and what
it means for their defense and MikoRyans. That's next right here on Sports
Talk seven to eighty. Let thecelebration start. War Sewn Salisbury to Shawn

(01:28:46):
Salisbury, show out, Salz,show up and show out is what they've
been doing. I mean you gotto show up and show out. Oh
yeah, yeah, the bare minimum. The kids still saying that, Tripley,
you are resident streets Insider, arethey still saying? Still show It's

(01:29:08):
not played out yet? Feels playedIt feels played out kind of does Okay,
so I wouldn't let you guys,that's true. Feels a bit feels
played out to me. TRIPLEY reallydoes? Excuse me? Yeah? Yeah,
yeah, I mean I guess wedo. Uh so one thing that
happened you mean, Brian does wait, wait out or no played out?

(01:29:35):
I'm saying you love the play that. I mean, we should know you
show. You like to say,show up and show out, you know?
Is that way your go tos?Yeah, that's what you have to
do. Really, I mean,when you really get down to you got
to show up, the show up. Yeah, I think it is played
out, though I don't think thekids are saying it as much. Tripley.
That's just that's just from what hey, that's from my vantage point.

(01:29:58):
Okay, Well you know what theysay about the kids anyway. You know
what they say about playing, rightdog? What do they say? They
say that play is not a luxury, plays a necessity. Who who?
What quote did you that one?I'm not I'm not I'm not real.
I'm not real tight with this woman, but I've heard her stuff. Kay

(01:30:20):
Redfield Jamison, Yeah, okay.And what's her background? She works for
Hawthorne Educational Services? Oh nice?Yeah, okay, can't play. Imagine
that's somewhere in Hawthorne. Yeah itcould be. Yeah yeah all right.
So what you got for me abouta fight? Talk to me? All

(01:30:41):
right? So at Texans practice therewas the defense was being pretty damn physical
with the offense. Stefon Diggs tooka took a pretty pretty tough lick from
Jimmy Ward. They came together,had some words, they were basically separated.
That was the end of it.Well, then, as the players
are walking away from it. DaltonSchultz mine in his own business. Here

(01:31:05):
comes Derek Stingley Junior. I meanliterally we even in and out of players,
and launches himself at Derek Stingley Junioror at Dalton Schultz, knocks him
to the ground. A bigger skirmishhappens, so forth and so on.
Yep, it was a It waskind of a like I lay in the
weeds and then explode on him andjump out at him. Yeah, And

(01:31:25):
obviously we've talked about fights in trainingcamp. We've talked about fights of practice.
We've talked about fights with joint practice. Like we know it's gonna happen.
You've you've given our given us examplesof when it happened when you were
playing in the league. Like weknow that it's gonna happen. But like
for me, we haven't had achance to talk about this because of your
travel. But for me, thethe fighting in the in the skirmish and

(01:31:48):
all that stuff, like the physicality, Like these are football players, I
think it's gonna happen. I havea big issue with him cheap shotting Dalton
Schultz because I know if that's meand if I like, if it happened
to me, Obviously I didn't playfootball. I was a baseball player.
But if it had something along thelines of like that happened to me at
a practice by one of my teammatescheap shot at me like that, I'm

(01:32:09):
like, we're gonna have issues andI'm probably not gonna forget about it for
the rest of the season. Atsome point, I'm always going to be
like, man, this dude,just I'm supposed to be your dog and
your cheap shot me like that,Like, come on, man, Like
Dalton Schultz mining his own damn businessand he gets basically launched to the ground
like I have. That's my onlyproblem with it. Other than that the
physicality stuff like that's gonna happen.I feel like there's so many layers to

(01:32:32):
this and two fights on the practiceand how different people, UH see it.
It felt personal that shot did.Yeah, that's that's where That's why
I think. That's that when it'sdone and it comes that, it felt
like somewhere along the line in adrill, they had they had had the
that they've been at each other before, Right, it makes sense, yes,

(01:32:55):
that they've that they've had their tiedend going out on the edge.
Who that did Maybe Stingley tackled himand Drill, I don't know. It
just felt like it felt like hehunted Dalton Schultz down to get like get
him back for something he said earlierto him on the field. I don't
know, you know where do weonly see that? Why do you know
when when you when you go afterthat, after the part of it's over,

(01:33:17):
it's your own team, not anotherteam. It almost felt like he
was pissed at Schultz for some Idon't know. Maybe he felt Schultz gave
him a shot somewhere and in someother Drill I don't know, but that's
why it felt if you just turnedit on and said, damn, Drill's
over. Well he went after himwith a lead shoulder and jumped out of
his cleats. I get it.The layers to fighting on the field.
First off, I will tell youthis now and I fully believe it.

(01:33:38):
Show me a team that doesn't getin fights during I'm talking about controlled chaos
fights where it breaks out, yougo and then you let it go move
on, and you're not doing You'retaking your helmet off and beating a guy,
which I've seen guy take his helmetoff and go after a guy with
his someat on the track field thathad overboard a couple of reason why you
don't want to get hurt. Weneed you, and that that feels a

(01:33:59):
little beyond the ability to fight.That feels like a hard I mean,
that feels like somebody stole something fromyour house, you know, like dude,
I mean, or beat you upor cheap shot at you somewhere ten
years ago, and you're getting backon them when you yank your helmet off
and starts swinging the damn thing.I've seen it before fights. Show me
a team that doesn't fight during trainingcamp, I'll show a teammate winning.
Dude. I'm just telling you,I've been on teams that when they battle

(01:34:23):
each other get tired of battle eachother. And still it's early in camp
and right is brown. Now it'slike we've got to start beating up on
somebody else that Teams that fight tellme, tell me that they I'm talking
about with the like a fight thatbreaks out. Guy hits you late,
You pop up, jump at him, push and shove and go after each
other. And a defense takes theirdefense side offense takes their offense side and

(01:34:44):
it's done. I like I do, And coaches will tell you we can't
do this. They've said it pressconference and bs r ass till the cows
come home in every city when theygo into their private rooms in the conference
room and a coaching meeting, aslong as somebody's not swinging at somebody with
a fist to a helmet, butthey're getting after it, they love it.
They friggin love it. Why ittells in their team is physical,

(01:35:06):
nasty, pissed and ready to go. But then there's the line that that's
the one part you do love.Man. I knew when our teams were
fighting it was time to play somebodyelse in training camp and that the intensity
was where it's supposed to be.You're getting beat up and sweating on two
days and you're worn out and it'syour own team. Damn Yeah, if
you're not fighting, I like,what's wrong with you? Hell? I

(01:35:27):
got into a fight with my owncenter during during practice, and so it
happens with everybody. You're frustrated,you're tired. But then the line comes
in and it's the when the drill'sover cheap shotting guys that the next ra
one on one where you're cheap shottinga guy, or seven on seven your
own guy's coming over the middle andyou unload on him. I've seen young
players that are trying to make animpression on a coaching staff that and and

(01:35:50):
and trying to gain respect to theirown team teammates, own side of the
ball that they will play extra physicalwhy And it works both ways too,
just like the fight is. Youdon't want to hurt your own guys,
but you know what it is ascoaches get pissed at you, but they
go and watch the tape and theysay, now, that's the type of
aggressive player I love. So itworks both ways. But you got to
you got to you got to havethe optics of we don't want fighting on

(01:36:13):
our team and all that. ButBrian, I'm with you that they if
it's after a drill, it's likeit's hard to say, okay, hey,
move on, it was just afight. I understand if you two
are the ones involved in it,but when it's two that warrant involved in
it, it feels like, what'sgoing on here? You don't want to
disrupt that camaraderie. It's good tofight as long as when that fight was
over, if they go into thelocker room, man, my bad,

(01:36:35):
dude. I'm sorry, that needsto be discussed. It's not well.
Let nobody got hurt. You don'twant that to fester where guys don't like.
You're not gonna like everybody. Youwant to respect them. So let
let's continue this conversation and we've gotto go to break. But to me,
I don't have a problem with fighting, but you got it's got to
be controlled right and your own playersand these are your guys. If you're

(01:36:56):
going to really fight, wait tillyour having that practice against another team and
get after it. But the messagealso for the defenses, Brian, I
do want to discuss this is theywant the world to see that they ain't
playing this year. Yeah. Ido get that part. I do because
they've been dogged for a while inthe past before Demiko got here. But
lack of tackling and all that theywant not only their own team. There's
another message to this of everybody seesit viral. It's like, oh damn

(01:37:20):
Texans come to play. Congrat Isaw one, but congratulations on the first
fight of training camp. If forany training camp that we saw that's a
message outside your building two other teamsin the league that you come here,
you are, and what position doesStanley play? Corner? What do we
know about corners? Usually they don'tlike to they don't like to mix it
up. Stingley sending a message too. You just want to make sure the

(01:37:40):
message isn't too harsh against your ownteam. I have zero issue with fights,
as long as they're clean and notcheap shot. That felt a little
over the top. Nobody got hurt, It's going to be fine. But
as long as you talk about itafter at some point, discuss it with
each other. You don't have tolove each other, but discuss it.
But it almost felt like it's somewhereSchultz and him had had words on the
field anyway. So but I onmind, teams a fight, just make

(01:38:00):
sure you do it the right wayand so nobody gets hurt, because then
the one time a guy gets hurtand breaks his hand on a helmet,
now you're now it's selfish because nowyou're putting your team in a buying because
you've lost depth from a starter.It didn't happen here. But you just
want to get that stuff under control. So done, fester. So it
happens what you said, Oh man, we're gonna fight, and I'm gonna
that that felt. You know,I'm gonna hold that grudge in. You

(01:38:23):
don't want that, man, Fightsare okay, happens all the time,
hug move on. Hey man,it's physical. We're tired. I get
it. You want to beat onsomebody else. But the Texans message goes
far deeper than their own. Practicefield teams send it all the time.
I love aggressive teams, and tome, that message will be felt throughout
the league. You just want tomake sure that if you're gonna fight your
buddy, you got to square upto him. You can't be you can't

(01:38:44):
be coming out of the woodwork anddo you got. You gotta square up
to him and fight him and thenget after it and then we'll break it
up like a hockey fight and let'smove on. So it's worth discussion,
it really is. Yeah, let'skeep on discussing this because let's let's I
want to get into the message ofthe defense is sending for the Houston Texas.
That's next right here on The ShawnSalzbray Show with The Sean Salisbury Show
continued showing off some physicality that theclip went viral. They even tried to

(01:39:11):
have this false narrative about Stefon Diggsbeing in the middle of that dust up
when him and Jimmy Ward kind ofcame together, and that was it.
It was Derek Stingley Junior launching himselfat Dalton Schultz. Stefan Diggs not in
the middle of any of that.But my question again to you, Sean,
as we discussed the last segment,is yes, dust ups happened.

(01:39:34):
Yes, fights happen, especially betweenteammates and also with joint practices, so
forth and so on. What messagedo you think the defense is trying to
send. Yeah, Well one isdon't listen, don't let it fester,
don't cheap shot a teammate, getin your fights and move on and then
discuss it and communicate. And likeI said, not everybody's going to be

(01:39:57):
best friends when you get fifty thefinal roster. Fifty us guys on a
roster. But there has to bea respect factor there. And whatever the
reason why Stingley, you know,kind of launched himself at the adult and
Schultz, we only know what wesaw and that's why social media can suck.
Sometimes we don't know what went onthe verbage it happened. There may
have been verbage after the hit withthe step on doing digs and Jimmy were

(01:40:18):
going at it and they're walking away, walking away, and all as we
saw was the delayed reaction from Singleywho knows. I don't know. And
after there's a fight did I couldtell you about some epic fights that did
came into the locker room, andan hour and a half later, the
same two went after it and plannedto go after it, and I mean
lasen up their shoes. I guesswe'll go epic fights on the field and

(01:40:41):
off it. When Joey Browner usedto run around the pile to get in
a fight the fight ended, youwanted no part of that because he,
you know, he was like,oh okay, Joey's coming time, let's
stop this one. But it's okay. I don't have a problem with it,
and neither do the coaches don't.I don't care what. Don't believe
the crap. They love it aslong as nobody gets hurt, and that
doesn't and it doesn't happen every thirdsnap. That's another thing. Let's you

(01:41:03):
know, we don't want a plethoraat all constantly going on. You think
they're going to get in a fightin one of these preseason practices with somebody
else. They will get in afight, even if somebody doesn't act like
hockey goons when they get into afight. And sometimes things aren't going well
in practice and there's real new you'renot even mad at the guy you're fighting.
You got to look at each otherto face off, and you say,

(01:41:24):
dude, we gotta throw all right, drop the gloves. The second
the puck's drop, they fight.That was planned, and then all of
a sudden, people get excited andyou know they nobody comes away hurt,
maybe a little blooded, and boom, you're good to go. Okay,
no big deal football, same waythost practices. Some guy may be having
a tough day and he was.They'll get after it, so you'll see
another fight. Ain't the last one. But when it's your team, you
can't. You just don't want thosethings to carry on three or four days

(01:41:46):
later to where you're going into theseason thinking about, we wonder why that
guy did that, Well, maybeI did something, So it's okay.
Fights are okay. Just don't gethurt, don't let it faster, and
don't cheap shot a teammate. That'syour guy, that's your guy. You
don't cheap shot anybody in a fight, but definitely not a guy you're going
to battle with. And two guysthat are counted on. As far as
the message it sends, do youactually now I'm not sure they thought about

(01:42:08):
it at the time, but Ibut I think going into camp, you
think about this. The message ofit's all CJ. Stroud not not jealousy,
but they talk offense, and JoeMixon and Stefan Diggs and we added
a couple of defensive guys and Dimiko'shere. But still the messages what did
they what do we always say?But we want more from the Texans,
more physical, right, we wantto see more physicality. They even said

(01:42:29):
it themselves up front. We gota control of be physical. And so
if you're if you're a defensive playerof the Texans, let's just think even
if they didn't, how I perceiveit. If I'm sitting in Jacksonville,
Damn, those guys they're different.It's okay, it's almost you say,
it's almost a teaser video, noton purpose, but I'm looking at teasing

(01:42:49):
out there. It's just so thisis all right. These these cats are
fighting among themselves. They're pissed.That's a corner going up and unloading on
a tight end. A damn.Texans are different. They built them different.
Now it's not just they're not justfinesse and missing tackles. And last
year was an aberration and oh it'sall offense and they're all window dressing.
It's like, oh, hell no, we're here to send a message.

(01:43:11):
We came for business this year.The second I turned it on, I
swear to you when when I watchedit and then I rewatched it, I'm
thinking if I'm on an opposing team, I'm thinking that Texans aren't playing.
Their defense is not playing. Youjust got to be careful not to hurt
your own guys. So the message, the message will be sent. It
won't be the last fight you see. You just hope the other ones.
Now if it is against two defensivelinemen and an offensive lineman in one on

(01:43:33):
one drill at camp against another team, those and they're okay, just you
know, just be wise in thefight. But there's a message to be
sent because you know everybody's catching onvideos. Someone's going to see it.
I want the message to permeate throughthe NFL that if you come to play
the Texans, brother, you betterbring some gloves. It's a frigging fistfight.
I almost dropped the other f becauseI loved when I used to see

(01:43:55):
our guys get after I'd sit backand say, now we're okay. John
Randall and Zi're getting after it.John randle in a rookie guard, John
sending a message to him. KeithMillard and the left tackle, who's a
rookie you, Dann will better showup, dude. And veterans love to
send it to younger guys, notthat either one of those guys was young
guys. You want to send itto them. If you're playing for us,
this is the message you better beprepared to be a part of.

(01:44:16):
And you're sending it out of thebuilding too. I don't have problem with
it. I used to love itwhen they fought. I knew my team
was ready. I knew we wereready when as long as it didn't happen
where it's becomes childish, I'm gettingback at you, and they just keep
fighting and fighting. And a guybrings it's like, come on, now,
can enough. But there's a reasonfor him, and coaches love him
and so do the players. Aslong as you're communicating in between, the

(01:44:40):
message to me is teams better beon alert. That the the the think
about what you've said about of theteams, Brian. If let me ask
you this, if the old schoolPatriots did it on defense and Vrabel got
in a fight with the offensive lineman, what would would you say to yourself?
They want another Super Bowl? Right? Yeah? Did tell me that
did? And creep in Yeah,it does all the time. So you

(01:45:01):
you affiliate fighting as long as it'sgood fighting with teams that mean business,
that are physical. At least Ido, and I knew when the teams
I played for that was it.Let me ask you, how'd you what
do you think the message? Whatdid you take away from the fight.
So when I when I saw thefootage, like obviously we've talked about this
before, I'm like, okay,it's a it's a it's a training camp

(01:45:24):
fight, like we see it allthe time. But then as the play
develops and or the skirmish develops andfinishes, and then Stingley comes out of
nowhere to cheap shot him. Likeobviously, I thought, oh, that's
a cheap shot. And then tooI'm like, damn, that's kind of
personal, Like where did that comefrom? Because Dalton Schultz is literally not
anywhere around. He wasn't even reallyin the middle of it. So then
I saw a highlight reel that wasput together of all the physicality that took

(01:45:47):
place at training camp where the defensewas, you know, playing really hard
and nose defense against the offense.I thought, damn, like this is
I loved it. This is whatI'm talking about, Like this this this
is a different defense even from lastyear. Yeah, just because they're your
teammate doesn't mean you're not going toget physical with him. No, you
go if you're if you're if yougo take boxing lessons and I don't know

(01:46:08):
if you have, Brian, butI have, or any kind of you
know, where you're where you're incompetition with somebody, even if it's a
good friend or it's your trainer,what do you do after a while,
It's like, okay, little frustration, you know how when somebody comes in
a buddy of years when you werein high school comes and like slaps you
on the back of your neck andyou weren't ready for it. Yeah,
and it just irritates the crap outof you. He's your boy, but
just for that split second you wantto turn a wheel on his ass.

(01:46:30):
Am. I right, yes,like I'm about to knock this bitch out.
And then you'd laugh about him andyou say, yeah, man,
that's funny. Don't do it again. Right. So it's the same thing
here. You see it, andthen you see how physical they are and
one on one drills and you startsay, Okay, this is a bigger
message and a bigger picture. NowI'll tell you what I do. If
I'm Dalton Schultz, I talk aboutit and and or if it was the
other way around. I'm just usingthese two as an example. Or if

(01:46:51):
I'm Steph Diggs and you took youtook exception to that Jimmy was a little
physical with you. The next timeyou get a chance to block him,
the whistle blows and you're and you'reengaged at the corner wide receiver position,
you know what, give him alittle extra yeah, Or if your Dalton
Schultz, you come out on theedge and Jimmy and uh and and uh

(01:47:12):
Stingley comes up to make a tackleon a toss sweep to to mix it
or whoever, and Dalton is engagedwith him just the second the whistle bows.
Slam is asked to the ground,Slam is if you I mean not
cheap shot him. You know atthe end boom boom boom, he hads
a bam slamming. Just get thelast end of a little physical say,
bitch, I caught you, Igot you. Okay, now we're good.

(01:47:33):
It's like it's like pitchers in baseballold school. You hit my guy,
I hit your guy. Now it'sdone. Okay, you got me,
I got you. Now you wantsome more, I'm ready for it.
Dude, here the platter. Youwant to come get some I'm here
for it. But okay, messagesin talk about it, move on.
I don't have problem with that.And if I'm Steph Diggs, block him
a little extra hard. If youwant to get Jimmy back, because those

(01:47:55):
guys get some shots on you thatyou don't get on defensive backs, have
at it. Just don't do itcheap, and don't do it after the
in a bad way from behind,and don't do it where you're gonna get
a guy that we need Schultz.You're gonna need Jimmy, you need,
you need Steph Diggs, you needStingley. Those are your Those are your
dudes. But I can fist fightmy best friend. That's okay. And

(01:48:15):
well that's okay. There's and there'srespect every snap that's happened. Make no
mistake. Respect is being earned.Respect is being earned. Respect is being
earned as long as it's done theright way. If I'm doing Schultz today,
I'm pissed as I'm pissed is allget out. I'm not making it
personal, but I'm okay, I'mI'm like sure that matter of fact,
I've had guys come back and he'llsay, call that play again. Get

(01:48:39):
we're running that same place, sohe can get out on the edge and
go get a block on a corneror if it was a strong safety in
this case of corner, so youget an opportunity to engage with him again
because you're saying, okay, I'mgonna get in behind. Just don't be
cheap about it. I don't haveproblem with that. I think it.
I think it also builds camaraderie.And two weeks later you're having a beer
saying, oh dude, and Idid that block after, I'll get you

(01:48:59):
next, and you laugh about itand move on. It's important teams that
will communicate it or physical go aheadand beat the hell out of each other.
Just do it legally, do itthe right way, and don't hurt
anybody. Let's keep talking about theNFL. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
Oh, we know that he givesus some classic sound bites. He spoke
to the media yesterday. Obviously there'sa lot going on with Ceedee Lamb not

(01:49:20):
getting in a contract. Just shehad Dak Prescott, so forth and so
on. What did Jerry Jones haveto say this time? That's next?
Sean Salisbury show continues. Yeah,but the dry heat. I prefer dry
heat over humidity. Now one hundredand ten might be a tad excessive,

(01:49:43):
just a tada, but I'm herefor my man. I know I'm a
glutton for punishment, but I'm overthe I'm over the Houston rain, and
I'm sure a lot of people aretoday too. But I know I got
a lot of my buds to say, I'll take that one hundred and ten
and dry heat and let's go play. Just drink a lot of water and
maybe a cold beer. Tripley andI are here Brian as well. We're
talking that Texans fight. I don'tknow if we have anybody on the line

(01:50:08):
triplely since I'm obviously can't see thecall screener. But I do know this.
I'm always curious from other people's vantagepoint, not because I was in
locker rooms and played. You know, people that listen or have a son
or a daughter that play sports,or the dad or the mom they grew
up in their high school and theirdad was a coach, or are you
just your football fan, you grewup on your high school team and you

(01:50:29):
got in fights in high school.It's not because it's just it's all relative
to whatever level. They fight inhigh school, fight in college, fight
and pros Coaches don't want players toget hurt, but they love that the
fact that guys care and that they'repassionate. And you know, and it's
not because I played, but Igot an up close. You know,
Pro football is a fist fight everyday anyway, even though they're not a
llegit because you're beating on each otherin pads and then seven seconds later,

(01:50:50):
after the play's over, you getout of the huddle of twenty seconds later
and you pick yourself up, godo it again for six five, six
seven seconds, go back eighty days, play a game. You're just beating
the hell out of each other,and the practice fields the same way.
So I don't have a problem withit. I'm just curious from a vanished
point if you if you didn't likeplay high school football or college or pro.
It doesn't matter what level or youdid, but you have a difference

(01:51:13):
of opinion on Do fights among playerson the same team bug you? Whether
I don't care, And if you'rethe mom of a son who plays the
dad, if you've changed your shiftedyour paradigms over the years, it's never
bothered me. It only bothers youuntil somebody doesn't bother until somebody breaks a
hand on a helmet, on hisown teammate. It's like a damn even
against somebody else. When you getinto a fight you don't want to.

(01:51:38):
Don't don't let that guy bait youinto a fight where you hit him and
now you broke a thumb and nowyou can't play. I mean, you're
no good to me in a cast. I need you playing. So there
is that part of it too,But I don't mind the physicality. I
don't mind the frustration. Listen,when you're in pads and the coaches are
on your ass every day, andthe mental and emotional grind, and then
you've got to go out and studyand study and study, and then you

(01:52:00):
got to come back out on thepractice field and execute. And then you've
got a big old three hundred poundsbeating on you, or a receiver who
just beats you on a go routeand you're like, damn, you're sweating,
it's humid. And then you comeback and put a hit on a
receiver and now that receiver's pissed becausehe thinks it was you getting back at
him because you ran right bias Assiin a one on one. Really,
it's all all. All that stuffcomes out of play, just like I

(01:52:20):
said it, just it'd be respectfulabout it. Nobody has a problem with
you scoring up to a teammate andgetting after a little fight happens all the
time in life. Just make surethat he's your teammate first. But even
another teammate, don't get hurt.But I just wonder, and maybe we
can come back and start at thetop of the hour and discuss this uh
tripoly is and fans seven one threetwo two five seven ninety seven one three

(01:52:44):
five seven ninety Do you have anissue with U see in fights, whether
it's among teammates And I guess youcan compartmentalize not against other teams but against
yourselves. But remember you practice againstyour own team far more than you do
anybody else. And there's still dudes, and there's still your buddy, but
they're also still when you're competing,they're the opponent. You're trying to make
a team for young guys or midleor veterans that are trying to hold on

(01:53:06):
and make a team, and you'realso trying to send a message of respect
for your own teammates that are watchingyou. Oh you're gonna run away from
that guy knocking you in the ground, hitting you late, get your asked
up and go make sure that doesn'thappening. And there's always these macho messages
set. But I wonder if peoplethink like me and buddies of mine or
teammates that you knew and coaches thatyou knew all the law. Okay,

(01:53:27):
that's I like our team's passion today. So I wonder if if you're just
if you watch it as a fan, or you watch fights, if you
think it's a deal breaker or it'sa camaraderie crusher to your football team,
if you're fighting among each other,and I'm going to tell you the one
hundred and eighty degree opposite. Ithink camaraderie's built that way. Not the

(01:53:48):
only way, but I think youbuilt camaraderie though. I'll tell you how
you lose camaraderie. A cheap shotof teammate or hit a teammate and the
teammate just allows you to disrespect himon a regular basis. You want you
want to find a teammate, aguy that the teammate said that the players
say, you're worried if you cancount on him. Find a teammate who's
a coward and won't defend himself ona regular basis and allows himself to be

(01:54:11):
bitch slapped on a regular basis.It doesn't happen usually on teams. And
that's okay. So where are youwith the fight? We'll talk more about
the Dallas Cowboys, Brian Ts,Jerry Jones. You get off his phone
call that he had to make,and we'll get right back at it top
of the hours next seven, one, three, two, two, five,

Salisbury Old Very Salsbury, Houston.Okay, let's do this. Sewan

(01:55:28):
Salisbury, there to usc trous,longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury, Ryan Lalima,
Go Lobos. This is the SeanSalsbury Show this morning lines starting at
about four thirty or five o'clock thismorning. Everybody wants to get a glimpse
of these Texans. You know,we talked about the scuffle that happened two

(01:55:50):
days ago at practice between Dalton ScholesDerekson Junior, the defense being super physical,
so forth. So on seven one, three, two point two five,
seven ninety is the number of jointtalk to Felipe. Felipe, what's
up? Good morning, fellas.I'm great to talk to my two favorite
basic white guys. Don't talking aboutFelipe? Say it again, basic white

(01:56:10):
guys, my favorite ones. Damnright, damn right? Uh emphasis on
with the capital B there you go. Uh No, the Texans talk.
Yeah, like I called it.You know, I'm like I've said every
everybody before, everybody in my familyknows all my president at training, through

(01:56:31):
and through. I'm a dieard foremso. But it's hard not to root
for this Sexans team because you cansee that they're built for greatness. They
have a good team there. Imean, everything's put together and it looks
like they're gonna go far this yearas far as this fight. You know,
I enjoy the camaraderie. I enjoythe physicality. I enjoy that.

(01:56:54):
You know, if a team,you know there's gonna be fighting and training
training camps like that, y'all havesaid that's great. They have fired,
they're ready to go. They're readyto get this thing going, like they're
ready for this season. The cheapshot I do not agree with though,
Like Stan was saying, yes thatyou're gonna cheap shot somebody, someone could
get hurt. You don't know howbad you could hurt that person. And
what happens if you know, ifSting get hurt, you know Shultz,

(01:57:16):
next thing, you know, thewhole You know, how how does that
affect the season coming up? Imean even when I played baseball in high
school, we we fought, weput the gloves on me and another teammate
before, but never had a cheapshot. But after that fight with them
gloves, we came out stronger andbetter and you know, we're we're still
good friends to this day. I'myou know, I'm not sure how the

(01:57:40):
Texans can see it and if there'ssomething behind the scenes that we don't know
about, you know, because wecan only see you. Like I've said,
we're going on to see what's beenshown to us. But I think
that they can. Honestly, Ihope they squashed the beef and just say,
you know what, let's go forward, and they they use us to
like progress themselves in a better relationshipbetween each other, which I'm pretty sure
they have. But a stronger bondis always better. Appreciate the call.

(01:58:02):
Yeah, great point, and that'swhat that's said at the beginning. You
have to, you absolutely have to. Not only you get out in front
of it and say, okay,done, what's done is done. But
the cheap shot part of it,you just those are the things that that's
why I say, those kinds ofthings that make it feel if it feels
personal or like you were getting retributionfor something that that Schultz said or did

(01:58:24):
to you earlier, you know,on the field, maybe maybe he hit
you a little late. I don'tknow. We only saw what we saw.
But you cannot you can't. Fightsare okay, matter of fact,
fights not only okay, I saidBrian when you were taking your call last
break, I had to the fightsbuilt. When people say it tears down
camaraderie, quite the opposite, Itbuilds it because you're gaining respect, you're

(01:58:46):
sending messages as long as the fightingends there and there's not a deeper issue,
and if there isn't, that's okay. But the cheap shots, because
imagine if you didn't see it,and you blow out a knee, your
offensive plan are they're different. Nowyou lose a body who you expect to
catch seventy balls this year, orvice versa. If Schultz cheap shot in

(01:59:09):
him, you're losing what you're tryingto build on, one of the elite
cover corners in the league. Sothe cheap shot stuff at fights, I'm
okay with at any point in time, as long as they're done and forgotten
about. Boom. I'm not okaywith fights that are based on a cheap
shot or getting even or one ofthose. I don't like that. Get
even the right way, not thewrong way. So whatever it was,

(01:59:30):
hopefully they've discussed and we won't seeit again. But you cannot do that.
You can't do it to another team, let alone your own teammate.
There's no doubt. Yeah, let'ssee how the other team in the state
of Texas is doing. The DallasCowboys. You know what Jerry Jones is.
He loves to give us a greatSoundBite. They didn't do much in
the offseason. They didn't do muchof the trade deadline or excuse me,

(01:59:50):
when free agency opened, Jerry Jonesspoke to the media yesterday, and this
is what Jerry had to say.I'm all and I'm all in. Sometimes
being all in means you narrow youremove the months out here that are in

(02:00:15):
the future, and you narrow itdown to where all we're talking about is
right now in the next playoff season. And that's it for everybody. We're
all in, We're all in.It's all right there. Let's okay,
we all got some things out herein the future, another two or three

(02:00:38):
years on contracts, all that stuff. Let's all get in here zero right
now in this, Dak Scott hisyear contract. Let's focus right here.
We all got a lot on theline for that playoff game, a lot
of it. So you've got tounderstand a weird way of looking at a

(02:01:00):
little bit with that. Sean,What in the what the hell did he
just say? Well, I don'tknow, but I do know this being
all in. I thought that waslast year the year. Aren't you supposed
to aren't you all in? Everyyear? Is he? Is he sending
a contract? Is he sending acontract? Mental, Dak, be all
in. We'll worry about your moneylater. I don't if that's the message.

(02:01:23):
I don't know what the message isI mean, Jerry, like I
said, he's maybe as good amarketer as there isn't a planet, and
he knows that. But when itcomes to this, and I don't know
why he loved and I guess Iknow why he go and stuff, but
why he wants to be the voicein the front man for the organization,
which is a bit you know sometimes, but it's like, if you're good,
if you want to comment, andthe coach could say something completely different,

(02:01:43):
but Jerry, if he wants tosay, he's gonna say regardless,
even if even if it could Foxwith somebody else. I don't know.
But to me, here's what Idon't get when somebody says I'm all in
when it comes to this football camp, I always want I say, okay,
was did I miss? Were younot all in? Last year?
Because I would get if you're notall in? If I'm the owner,

(02:02:06):
guess what I'm getting rid of thedudes who aren't all in? Coaches,
player, if you aren't all in, if you're eighty percent and I'm cutting
your ass, Oh, if you'regoing to treat the players like that,
why the world do I the owner'sall in? Well? Jerry? Then
you weren't in last year. Ijust I know we kind of it's kind
of tongue in cheek when we're sayingit, but you don't need to let
me know you're all in. Allin to me means when I show up

(02:02:28):
to camp, I should be allit's my job, it's my career.
I wasn't. What were you mailingit in instead of all in last time?
Did I miss saying you didn't putenough stamps on it? You got
sent back to you? What's what'sthe deal here, Jerry? So?
I would hope everybody's all in theif you've got to tell your players to
be all in, or if that'sthe emphasis you have to put on it,
guess what I'm concerned about the you'reconcerned that everybody's not all in,

(02:02:50):
And if you're the owner, Iwould hope you're all in all the time
on winning and then making money.So I don't get it. It's Jerry
Man. You got to are allin right here right now. You know
we can we can look at thefuture and we can take some samples from
then, but we are right nowbecause we are all in. What the

(02:03:13):
what to today's trading camp, Tomorrow'strade camp. Yeah, I would hope
you're all in. If not,guess what you're gonna get left behind.
So if you're not all in,you got cut time coming up. Send
a message. If you get aguy's only seventy five percent in, tell
them to go find a new job. Okay, I know, place get
Yeah, well guess what they're alsosucking on being all in? Okay,

(02:03:35):
I hope they're all in. Ifyou're a Cowboy fan, you better hope
they're all in. Uh yeah,a check this one out. Sean he
uh. He had a little furtherthoughts on this season. It's going in
and it's not coming at m Yeah, it's the the glory hole. Okay,
he's said that too. Ah.I am a Jerry fian, dude,

(02:03:58):
I just all dude, all in? What do you mean you're all
in? Like Jerry? Of courseyou're all in, But you didn't do
a damn thing in the off season. You weren't all in In March when
people wanted you to spend money onsome free agents, you brought back Ezekiel

(02:04:19):
Elliott. That was your move.Thanks. I'm an Ezekiel fan. Okay,
there you go. Oh my gosh, man, he's just the gift
that keeps on giving. I swearI love him, love it. Yep.
Great for good thoughder well he's uh, they're all in, Sean.

(02:04:39):
Well, I'm glad I knew that. Yeah, I guess you do every
day. So the Cowboys are allin this year? Yes, yeah,
they're all in. Yep, Jarahthere. Uh, they'll be all in,
uh basically until the playoffs get here, and then they're all out,
just like every other year. Whatin all honesty, how do you think
they're gonna do this year the Cowboysplayoff? I mean, we'll be on

(02:05:00):
the verge. They'll be dealing withthe playoff. They'll be in the contention
to make the playoffs in December Januaryearly on. Yeah, late, I
mean when I talk about it,like, I don't know when the last
game of seasons, but in Decemberthey'll still be in the hunt. They're
they're their quarterbacks good, They've gotgood players. I think their defense will
get after it. They I'm curioushow they're going to run the football consistently

(02:05:21):
and where's the next level? Arepeople's head in the game when it comes
to contracts and stuff, they're youknow, they didn't do it much of
anything. Like we mentioned in theoffseason, they're not the class of the
division. I would imagine that Washington'sgoing to you know, Dan Quinn's gonna
have Washington playing hard, and weknow that the Philadelphia was disappointed last year.

(02:05:42):
Their problem is they've got some issuesbecause it doesn't seem like quarterback and
head coach are on the same page, which can be an issue if that
festers, and with all that,they'll be chaos in the division. We
know the Giants are, so Iwould expect the Cowboys in it, and
it wouldn't shock me, depending onPhiladelphia's health and how they get these coordinators
going unlike last year. I thinkthe Cowboys in December you'll still be talking

(02:06:05):
about playoffs, that they've got thatchance, and maybe even in a division
situation. But Philadelphia is the bestteam if they're if they're mentally and everybody's
well all in with the coach andthe quarterback and the rest of it,
So the Cowboys will be around.I don't think they're a super Bowl threat,
but I think they're a playoff threat. Yeah. Well, let's see

(02:06:26):
what the deal is with Ceedee Lambbecause they don't have a contract extension for
him, and then he got allthese hold ends. You heard about the
whole ends Sean so overrated show ups, you don't get fined and then not
practice. Yeah yeah there, andthen Prescott's contract, the contract thing.
You're gonna have to as a playerbe able to compartmentalize that because you know
what, if you want to getpaid, perform and you'll get paid.

(02:06:47):
So it is, it's it's we'rein a unique time in pro sports and
we know about player empowerment. Theall ends is simply selfish. They don't
want to lose money. And ifthere's a loophole and the rule allows him
to do it, that's fine,And I get it. I'm not getting
in their wallet. But I knowthis the Cowboys they're not good enough not
to They're not good enough to beable to be thinking about one thing and

(02:07:10):
doing another. They have to becompartmentals. His message was to Ceedee,
Lamb and Dak about making sure you'refocused on football. I'm telling you that's
what it did. The deep partof is the money wise Hell Parsons is
up soon, right, Yeah,you're gonna start with Michael Parsons. You're
your best players. So he's tryingto get them to just go play football
and we'll deal with the money later. But players want to know about the

(02:07:31):
money now, so that's going tobe an issue that they face. I
assure you it's on their it's ontheir minds. Let's talk about c J.

(02:10:05):
Dad, Now Brian, no,go ahead? Did you I need

you find it funny and convenient thatSean starts loud talking us as soon as
he gets out of town. Yeah, yeah, he's basically out of the
country. I'll allowed talk you intowntoo. Yeah. Well, the no
temperature is going to be hot enoughto feel like I'm in some in death

Hey, man, you know thething you do with your hands when

(02:11:11):
you're like whoa, whoa, That'swhat I'm doing right now. Hey.
By the way, there's an excessiveheat warning where you are. So when
you're out there, uh playing golftoday? Uh? Drink water? Yeah?
Are you out? Are you outby? Indio? Know I'm in
Palm Desert, which is like you'reliterally in the middle of Palm Springs and
Indio. Yeah, yeah, PalmSprings. But right right in the middle,

(02:11:33):
right, I mean, I'm inthe throes of it. Dog,
that's that just the Eja Lakina PGA, West Indian Wells that area. Yes,
is there like actual population out there? Yeah? You got? I
mean, what's the zoid bandwidth looklike? You get? You might you
might have to exceed your I meanit's both young or older, but probably

(02:11:56):
if you're probably gonna probably elevate toan older age. Okay, I doubt
it'd be like going to a poolparty in Vegas on a Saturday during the
beginning of summer. Probably you mightget a little elevated day. And it's
okay. So you're telling me you'reat a retirement community right now, Well,

(02:12:18):
no, I'm not in a retirementcommunity. Hence why I'm staying in
an airbnb. I would say thatmost people when you like warm weather,
you know a lot of times peoplemove out to Palm Springs later in their
life because their joints are achy fromliving in cold weather. Okay, so
yeah, you know at times itwas probably viewed. I'll tell you it's
gotten younger over the years. Oldschool money, you know, the Bob

(02:12:39):
Hopes and Frank Sinadgers. But it'sgotten younger over I mean, there's still
plenty of old people. Don't misunderstandme. This is a This is usually
considered a retirement place to go whenyou got your or a second home place.
Yes, retirement, a second home. But it's gotten younger over the
years because it's become more It usedto be the place people go for spring
break from college because it was warmweather and everybody stay at the same time

(02:13:00):
hotel, and you'd go there foryour spring break and it was close by
for California college students like at scor UCLA, at Goho, so you
didn't have to get on a flight. If you did have any money,
you'd just take a money drive toPalm Desert. But it's gotten younger over
the years. Now there's still plentyof a you know, people that are
mature and a little wiser, butit's got a bit younger because it's you

(02:13:20):
know, in vogue to get asecond crib out here and be on the
Madison Club golf course. But it'smore old money, I'd say. But
if you want good weather three hundreddays a year, warm dry weather,
it's it. Plus I'm going toSan Diego, which it's seventy eight to
get today or eighty to gay Sothat's perfect weather going to San Diego,
which is two hours from here.So but I'm here for a handful to
day, so yeah, it's it'sprobably a tadholder. It's not where you'd

(02:13:43):
go on vacation if you were singleguys looking for twenty five year olds on
a Wednesday. Okay, so it'sone hundred. It's going to be one
hundred and ten degrees today, soit's one hundred and ten and that's going
to match your golf score one hundredand ten. Crazy, it works out.
I'll shoot today and the both trytravels here with this the air,

(02:14:03):
it's not heavy air. I'll shooteighty today. I've been playing in practically,
I'll shall shoot eighty today. Nowif i'm if I make some putts,
it'll go down. But I'm gonnaI'm gonna suggest that i'll play shall
I'll be eight to ten over today. I haven't played but once in about
two weeks, which is not likeme. But I'm gonna play a lot.

(02:14:24):
By the time I leave here,I'll break eighty here in this city.
I can assure you that are youreally playing thirty six today. I'm
considering it. Yes, if Ifeel good after eighteen, I'll play because
in the afteron be I'll play eighteenin the afternoon, in two hours and
fifteen minutes. Why because the uhpeople an't gonna be want to be out

(02:14:45):
there. One hundred and ten.I'll play in the high heat one hundred
ten. I'll be done in twohours. So yeah, I'll try to
play thirty six today. I gotI got to throw it at the flagstick,
dog, I guess. I guessdegrees now hard pass for me.
Ain't scary. It's a dry heat, right, No, I know.
Yeah, you're in the You're onthe West coast, left coast, best
coast or whatever they say. Wordmy gosh, man, hey real quick.

(02:15:07):
Uh you know how Georgia's had likeplenty of their players the University of
Georgia, plenty of their players havebeen arrested this offseason. Yeah, they
just had another one. Georgia widereceiver raw Raw uh raw Raw Thomas has
been arrested on two counts of batteryand one count of cruelty to children.
That's nothing to cheer about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, care about it.

(02:15:31):
I'm not making it. I'm notmaking. It's not joke, it's
it's horrible. What were the countsagain? How many counts? Uh?
Two counts of battery and one countof cruelty to children that just that was
just released. Yeah, that's nothing. Funny, My god. Here's the
three cruelties I can't stand, Brian. Cruelty to older to to well,
you're joking about older folks. We'retalking about the retirement can be two older

(02:15:54):
folks. People that are cruel toold old folks and just let them,
you know, just stick them offon their own and don't help them.
Don't aren't there for him anymore.Cruelty to kids and cruelty to animals.
All of it sucks and you getwhat you deserve, does it time?
And I'm not comparing the two atall. University of Florida was going through

(02:16:15):
this when Urban was there. Didn'tit work? Yes? Yeah, And
I'm not I'm not gonna I amnot comparing to. But and what University
of Florida was really good at thetime too, right? I just and
I'm like I said, I thinkKirby Smart's building something specially. I just
wonder why so much of this ishappening at Georgia right now. I don't.
I don't know. It's it's beenrampant all off season, Yeah is

(02:16:39):
it? You think it's just oneof those off seasons. But cruelty to
children ain't. Ain't one of thoseoff seasons. Does that make sense?
Brian? That's a character problem,makes it? You know what I mean?
Yeah, if you're the type ofguy who you know, uh,
you know, you get people wholike like uh orru to animals and wildlife,

(02:17:01):
they find it and they'll be cruelto it. That's you know,
you'll see it in movies and yousee in real life that they did.
Did these kids? You know,you'll get kids out there trying to light
bugs on fire and stuff, allthat and that stuff that we probably all
did at one point in time,you know, stepping on But I stay
away from all that. But wildlifeand the cruelty to dogs or you know,
putting them in bad situations, that'snot a one off. That's DNA

(02:17:22):
that that's cruel that that you havethat in your character. So that's that's
a problem for me. Listen tothis as we get get to break.
Georgia football players have been arrested orcited for speeding, reckless driving or racing
at least twenty four times this year. Twenty four times. Well, then

(02:17:43):
take your footure. I mean they'reoff the charts good and you probably need
to take your uniform off and gogo see if you can qualify for a
NASCAR r Oh my gosh, legal, I'll tell you what happens. I
mean, you keep doing that.Man A real secret too, but not
at that expense. And when itcomes to you know, we all like

(02:18:03):
to drive fast, but there's atime in place. Twenty four of them.
That's that's not one off ron,that's a trend. Yeah, okay,
that's a trend. And the newsyou just gave us today from what
this raw rob kid, Yeah,cruelty to kids and the rest of it,
that's that's not a Hey, isn'tthis funny? That's a you know
what that room that tells me I'vedone it before, right, That's that's

(02:18:24):
the message I take from it.This ain't the first time. I just
got caught, this time meaning theraw raw guy at Georgia. So let's
hopefully Kirby gets this and sends amessage to those guys. And maybe it's
irony, but I can remember youknow we've talked about this before. You
just you can't let good football getin the way of making sure the guys
are doing the right thing. Justjust twelve days ago, another Georgia football

(02:18:48):
player, Bo Hughley was arrested oncharges of reckless driving. Unbelievable, man,
this is crazy. All right,let's get to break. Let's talk
about CJ. Stroud and his studyhabits. Next. Yeah, and let's
talk about habits that give you anopportunity to get great customer service, great
inventory, and great deals. Andit's the Classic Elite Chevy sugar Land,

(02:19:11):
Classic Elite Chevy Highway six Class EliteChevy sugar Land dot Com where you go
to see all these deals. I'mgoing to focus today. You know,
the deals I ever talked about,the deals about the Silverados and the great
pickup trucks and SUVs and Tahoos theyhave. The deals are there. Go
to Classic Eleait Chevy, Classic EliteChevy dot Com and you will find exactly

(02:19:37):
what you need. I'm just goingto focus on one thing. When I
and I just bought a new vehiclerecently, a travel vehicle RV, and
I can't begin to tell you howcustomer how important customer services and being walked
through every stage and when they missstage is it'll chap your ass. One
thing I know about Classic Elite ChevySugarland classically Chevy Sugarland dot com. I

(02:19:58):
said, Chevy chevysugar Land dot comgives you the opportunity when you go in
there is you're always going to getgreat customer service and you're not walking out
of that building with them. Youknow it exactly who they are. You
know exactly who they are. GMDealer of the Year thirteen years in a
row. So when it comes tocustomer service, making sure you're happy,

(02:20:18):
making sure that the deals are therefor you, making sure that the inventory
is on the law. But moreimportantly, nobody likes to spend money and
walk away and say did I makethe right choice? And when you're comparing
it to the best, compare itto Classic Elite Chevy sugar Land. There's
a bunch of people out there thatcould take a lesson from what you're learning
from the Jeff and Tiffany Sebastian groupover there. Classic Elite Chevy sugar Land

(02:20:41):
Classically Chevy Sugarland dot Com thirteen yearsin a row, GM Dealer of the
year, customer service matters. Hell, I buy customer service, don't you.
You'll get it. Classical elyite,Chevy sugar Land, classically Chevy h
Highway six Together, let's drive theSean Salisbury show, continued to my parents.

(02:21:01):
Yeah, yeah, telling you whenthese cameras get up and rolling,
Oh, we're gonna blown funny.Yeah, well, buddy, we might
lose so much focus they started running, Uh, Don Cornelius in there for
Soul Train on our ass because we'redancing and singing so much. You don't
even know who Don Cornelius is,do you? Yeah? Didn't he run

(02:21:22):
Soul Train? Yeah? Thanks?Okay, thanks Captain obvious? Yes,
I said, you see you?Okay, yeah see you don't know?
Yeah, yeah, I really do. He was on the only reason I
do know him is because he wason a couple of episodes of The Fresh
Prince of bel Air. Yeah awesome, So we all grew up to Don
Cornelia's Yeah, glasses Clark, Whatdid you just say, Dick Clark?

(02:21:48):
Okay, yeah, I thought yousaid, I'm not Eric Dick doing a
commercial. Never mind, it doesn'tmatter, I said Dick Clark was running
American Bandstand and Don Corneis was was, uh yeah, it was freaking awesome,
man, So yeah you belong backthen, see can really well,
we're gonna turn that studio into it. It'll be American Bandstand, Soul Train

(02:22:09):
combined dog Bets, your sweet ass, we will damn right. I can't
wait. Hey real quick, I'lltease it for a couple of segments now.
Bobby Slowick talked about c J.Stroud and his studying habits. You
know, one of the things thatpeople questioned was his studying, his wonder
Lick tests and all the other bs. Obviously we saw him have a really

(02:22:31):
good rookie year. Well. BobbySlowan is offensive coordinator, talked about c
J. Stroud this offseason. Whatdo you think is the thing about him
that stands out to you that makeshim not a twenty two to twenty three
year old kid, because when Iwatch him, it's apparent to me that
he's like a veteran Yeah, andit ties right to that tireless competitor and
worker to the point where and heprobably needs to get more sleep, like

(02:22:54):
like really, he'll be up watchingfilm And this isn't even this isn't even
game plan time, and when we'retalking right now in training camp, he's
sending texts to receivers, to coaches, to everybody from film of clips of
how he wants to make some adjustmentsthings he's thinking through the course of plays.
And it's like eleven thirty pm.Man, go to sleep, Go
to sleep. C Jacob a man, but he just he works and it's

(02:23:18):
endless. He cares a lot.He wants to win at everything. He
wants to be the best at everything, which I think you would agree is
a common trait with all the guysthat become fantastic football players, and he
really embraces that. Not to mentionhe's extremely talented. On top of all
that. That's Bobby Slok. Hewas on green Light, The green Light
podcast with Chris Long, tireless workertexting late at night, go to bed,

(02:23:43):
CJ common thread, Bobby Slope.Slok is exactly right. It's all
players and focused on the quarterback.Because of CJ. Stroud, I have
never been some guys can get awaywith talent, and you can you can
make a player. It's like youknow, bad mechanics on a play,
you make a great throw. Thosethings happen, and talent obviously matters.

(02:24:05):
I mean, you've got to havea skill set, there's no doubt,
and the capacity to maximize that physicalskill set. But I'm gonna tell you
now, and you can argue.People can argue with me all they want,
and I don't think many will thatare in the football world, very
few will outside of it. Itwon't matter. I'll take the smart that
the studying, hardcore, studying,preparing seven talent over the ten talent who's

(02:24:30):
a four studier. Eventually, overthe long run, I'm gonna get you
more than you're gonna get me talentor not. Now, when you get
both, whether you get Randy Moss, you get C. J. Stroud,
you get Warren Moon, you getTom and Tom Brady, you get
Peyton Manning, you get the bestin the world. But I can tell
you this, to sustain it andbe great. I have never been around
a great player over a long periodof time. I've been around guys who

(02:24:52):
have moments and we have seen them. They're just so physically gifted. But
eventually you get caught up to You'vegot to understand what the other guys what
you're trying to. Have said amillion times to me, the top traits
in any athlete. I'll speak toquarterbacks in particular. One, I got
to know how mentally, I'm assumingyou're talented, because you're in the league
some more talented than others, howmentally and emotionally tough you are. They're

(02:25:15):
tied in. And the physical toughnessis obvious in a physical sport, you
got to have that, but theand threshold of payment mental and emotional toughness
to deal with the crap that inevitablyhappens every friggin game you play in.
So then it's not just you,but it's how you make sure your teammates
see how to handle it. Itis so important. It's my number one

(02:25:35):
trait of any of it, tangibleor intangible. Secondly, ty those two
go together. Secondly, it's yourability to manage your time commit to doing
stuff others aren't doing, because inorder to get the stuff that you don't
have, you got to do thethings that others aren't doing. And that's

(02:25:56):
the difference in every great quarterback andplayer I have ever sat with, I've
been around interviewed. Common thread tosustain great play is austin adapt But are
you staying ahead of the game onthe physical, say, young kids still
learning because they think they can throwa football. Eventually they all can throw
it, some a little better thanothers. What's going to separate you?

(02:26:18):
So to have the things you don'thave, you got to do the things
you haven't done or others aren't doing. And you got to be mentally and
emotional tough to deal with that positionin particular, because it is a friggin
brutal grind. The good times area grind because you got to lead,
and the bad times are tough becausepeople have expectations and you got to be
mentally tough enough to have a crappyass game and still find a way to

(02:26:41):
win. Those are the different ones. Seven's different. He's different, and
that's why tough times don't last.Tough people do. Oh gosh, yeah,
thanks, it's a nice quote.And that's from your good friend sell
Us really who Marcellus Marcus? Imean Mark Marcus. Yeah, this is

(02:27:05):
from Marcus Realis. Yeah, uhhuh, there you go. Yeah,
yeah, Hey, tough times don'tlast. You know what tough people do?
People do? Ye? Yeah,yeah, there you go. That's
true. And that's what said Youknow what they said? It you know
who. He also said, Ithink I said that. I think one
of the great philosophers said that too. If my aunt had balls, she'ld
be she did. I think thatcame from some great philosopher, don't you.
Yeah? Who was that? Uh? Probably Harry Hatchett. Ass know

(02:27:31):
well, the all time greats.Wow, go go check up, go
check up some of his quotes.Harry Hatchett asks one of the all times.
I'm gonna put that in my notes. Yep, you'll love it.
Add that to the to the oldquote book, you know what I mean,
little black book. All right,Astros Dodgers tonight, what do we
