Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Say, okay, let's do this.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Sewn Salisbury, the USC.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Truths, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Ryan Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sewan Salisbury show.

Speaker 4 (00:22):
Tough one Friday Night, but the Astros rebound win Saturday Sunday.
They are now four games ahead in the AL West.

Speaker 5 (00:29):
Yeah, tell you what a couple another week and a
half like we've had, meaning where you keep jumping games
and Seattle keeps taking care I mean, giving you the
opportunity to extend the lead. This division will be, when
I say, out of reach if it gets the seven
or eight games. The Mariners aren't catching them. No, they

(00:50):
may have a little difficulty doing it now.

Speaker 4 (00:53):
I think so Rangers and Seattle. Neither team in this
division are playing good baseball down the stretch at all.
I mean the Rangers. I think the Rangers are done.
They are done them. I you know, I always give
a lot of flak to Rangers fans, but man, they
are terrible here lately. They are just not good. And

(01:15):
the Astros pitching is just unbelievable. Fromber Valdez fantastic again,
Hunter Brown fantastic again. Spencer Araghetti had one of his games.
They have some meat balls.

Speaker 5 (01:27):
The young fellas at the plate had a little bit
of difficulty hitting major league hitting Decenzo and and uh
whitcomb the a little different ball game when you get
to the big fellas, right, Yeah, all the different pitches
and you know the way they work the count in
and out and up and down. But yeah, it's another
impressive performance by Fromber. Guy's been on fire. This is

(01:50):
as good. The last four or five starts about as
good as I've seen him.

Speaker 4 (01:52):
Pitch consistently seven innings, three hits, no runs, nine k's,
one walk. He is now thirteen and five, Josh, don't
look now, twenty seven straight safs.

Speaker 5 (02:03):
And you know what, well, how many more starts? And
we were there forty some games left.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
Right, Yeah, the Astros are now sixty seven and fifty six,
so that.

Speaker 6 (02:16):
There are thirty nine games left.

Speaker 7 (02:18):
All right, So.

Speaker 5 (02:20):
If it's a six man rotation, that's six more starts
for him, five more starts at least, Yeah, five or
six more starts.

Speaker 7 (02:28):
Do you realize he's in a cy young race?

Speaker 8 (02:30):
Now?

Speaker 5 (02:30):
Yeah, isn't that crazy? I mean you used to in
the American League. It's I mean, Corbyn Burns in the
American League for Baltimore has been hanging around it. How
is Fromber with this performance and take this team that's
been down and out, you know, the first half of
the season, first part of the season, and then go
on a roll and do the things they're doing now

(02:52):
and Fromber being a big part of it. Now he
looks like an ACE again. And it's not just once
then two average one good. This dude's been going out
there and logging seven eight innings on a regular basis
and kicking ass now walking people pitching confidently he is.
I think he's thrust himself into the cy Young talk.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
I would say, TARC schools leading the way at fourteen
and four yep. And then Farmer Valdez has got to
be right there, Corbyn, like you said, Corbyn Burns, Carlos
Rodon's been really good for the Yankees, Seth Lugo has
been really good for Kansas City, and then it's Fromer
Valdez is right there as well.

Speaker 5 (03:27):
Yeah, I mean, and this team's winning the division so
and with all the injuries, knowing the load he has
to carry, it's been impressive and he's got to be
I mean, think about you're like, do we have an
ace and now we're talking about he maybe in the
sy Young not maybe he should be in sy Young
talk with the way he's performed in recency bias does
matter to a lot of people. In his last four

(03:48):
or five decisions or starts, he's been lights freaking out.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Yeah, and on a day where the offense for the
Astros managed five hits fromer Valdez has continued to pitch
extremely well, not surrendering it run only walking one Yesterday
a little bit of a different lineup, obviously, Jordon Alvarez
did not play. Alex Bregman didn't play all weekend long

(04:12):
because of some kind of weird injury where he slept
on his arm wrong.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
And didn't play. So how many days was that three? Yeah,
it's a tough sleep dog.

Speaker 7 (04:26):
I mean we all need to sleep that hard.

Speaker 6 (04:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
Uh, hitters one, two and three alto a Penia Diz.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
That's where all the hits came from.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
Two hits from al twove one from Penia Jiner Diaz
with two who yer, he hit another home run.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
He's sitting two.

Speaker 9 (04:46):
Ninety eight.

Speaker 7 (04:47):
Chazy nickname Chaz McCormick.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Oh for once again, he's sitting a buck ninety three
he is not chazz, He's not fizzling. No, he's fizzling
out plummer chassy, chazzy, fizz chassy fizzle, fizzle. Yeah, another
product shizzle.

Speaker 5 (05:07):
Yeah, yeah, Yeah, a lot of hits at the top.
You're exactly right and good pitching to win another series
after stubbing your toe the first one. How's that for
a cliche? The totu yeah, or sleep on your arm
wrong for three days? Okay, how much.

Speaker 8 (05:30):
He did?

Speaker 9 (05:30):
What?

Speaker 6 (05:31):
He slept on his arm wrong?

Speaker 4 (05:34):
Felt it a couple a couple of days prior to
the White Sox series, said he played through it. Yeah,
go ahead, raise that arm.

Speaker 5 (05:45):
I'm putting my arm in different places. Yeah, it wouldn't
wake you up in the middle and I said, man,
I'm sleeping on it wrong. You know, you sleep on
it wrong usually, and you know you can't fill your hand.
It's a little numb, you know. You just raise your hand,
the blood gets you know, get gets back in there and.

Speaker 6 (05:58):
You kind of shake it out, you know.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
Yeah, my questioning you know the toughness, But I'm not
questioning toughness, just an odd injury to miss the arry arms.
But now it would be fresh legged, yes, fresh legged
so see what happens.

Speaker 4 (06:11):
Man, Speaking of fresh legs, fresh legged, Kyle Tucker took
a little VP on the field. Nice kink talk King Tug.
Maybe it's gonna find its crowd. I got tagged in
something over the weekend. Let me go through it real quick,
trev at Trevor Trevor's tweets. He uh, I guess. Todd

(06:34):
Cows was on the field prior to the game and
people were lining up for his autograph, and trev said,
can we get a TK impression video of him signing
autographs for the kids?

Speaker 5 (06:45):
Hey, how you doing? Yeah, Todd Callous, I'm in the booth.
Oh you want my autograph? Sure, here you go.

Speaker 7 (06:53):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Hand me that baseball. We got a.

Speaker 5 (06:56):
Good we sure got a radio and TV broadcast got
some good ones.

Speaker 4 (07:00):
Brian bogus Sevic was on the radio broadcast over the weekend.
Man Yeah, Man always does a great job himself.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
He was on with Robert for at last yesterday. I
was listening to those guys as I was a cruise
around doing a couple of things. Uh, we'll have Steve
Sparks this morning at eight thirty, as we do every
single Monday. You think you think those guys like watch football.
Oh yeah, during the sea.

Speaker 7 (07:23):
They have their they have their fantasy drafts.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
I remember when I was doing ESPN, I was sitting
at home and, uh, why am I losing my mind?
What's my guy first base for the Red Sox? Not Eucles,
but the one who turned around, Uh this on the
MLB show. Oh why am I losing my mind? The
one that says, don't let us win tonight or just
win tonight?

Speaker 4 (07:44):
In the Red Sox document, Yeah you see Kevin Euclis
and no Kevin Malar.

Speaker 5 (07:49):
Malar, Yeah, Kevin Mala Malar And did that team uh
Francona that group when they were on a wet there
was a I think it was two thoule in four
season first World Series, they were on there.

Speaker 7 (08:04):
I think they love in like JT. Snow.

Speaker 5 (08:08):
When I went to Battie watched them play in Anaheim
and not in Anaheim but in Arlington, and followed them
and went down there and talked to those guys on
the field. They called me. Laura calls me when they're
on their West Coast wing against the Angels. Later that year,
like in August around this time, says we're having our

(08:29):
Fantasy Draft show, don't let Tito call you. So he'd
call me when his draft pick came around while I
was sitting sitting in uh. I might even either been
at my home. I think I was in a hotel
in Bristol getting ready to do you know TV that day.
So he'd call me from the West Coast. And every
time the draft had come up, his pick, he'd come

(08:51):
up saying, now, don't tell. And so through the draft,
through their fantasy draft, I was on the phone with them,
off and on. So they point is that those oh
do they do it. They will out down and go
to restaurants and the rest of it on a night off,
and everybody picked their teams.

Speaker 7 (09:03):
I've heard more than one team doing that.

Speaker 9 (09:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
Do you remember a couple of years ago, maybe last
year year prior, Tommy Fam and Jack Peterson got into it.

Speaker 7 (09:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:11):
Tommy Fam slapped Jack Peterson in a pre game like
warm up session.

Speaker 7 (09:15):
Between the two team fantasy draft over.

Speaker 4 (09:18):
A fantasy football violation of the league whatever.

Speaker 6 (09:22):
And I'm not if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 4 (09:24):
Alex Bregman was the commissioner of that league that they
were in a little too serious.

Speaker 6 (09:27):
Tommy Fam slapped remember that.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
Yeah, I remember that being that was like two three
years ago, right, So they take it pretty serious man. Yeah,
and a lot of those teams on a day off
would be have their draft and probably already.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Have imagine getting slapped well over fantasy football. Yeah, that
wouldn't be in the outfield game.

Speaker 7 (09:50):
Yeah, wouldn't end.

Speaker 8 (09:51):
Well.

Speaker 5 (09:54):
That was back in May of twenty two. Yeah, twenty two.
It's crazy, man.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
And then he got what he got suspended. Oh it's
for the fantasy football the year prior, so twenty twenty
one's league. He waited a couple months to finally find him. Yeah,
he finally found I'm getting you back, dude. Yeah, over
fantasy football.

Speaker 5 (10:16):
But they do.

Speaker 7 (10:16):
They love it.

Speaker 5 (10:17):
I know those teams and then and they monitor it
the whole time. It's competitive for them. So it's just
like anything you know, when you're outside of your own
career makes it easier to I mean, you get into
with your buddies because you stay competitive, and it keeps
guys that are friends but on different teams that are
in the same league, keeps him in contact.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
You know.

Speaker 6 (10:34):
It's kind of a good it's kind of thing that's
pretty sweet, all right.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
The Astros take a four game lead in the Al West,
and it's a big thanks to the pitching staff. I
got some numbers here in regards to Hunter Brown and
fromber Valdez, and they are eye popping. Let's look at
how those two have pitched over the last couple of outings.
That's next right here on Sports Talk sevent to.

Speaker 5 (10:56):
Eighty, going non stop show with formre QB Sean.

Speaker 4 (11:02):

so right after the steak out and then obviously into
the eight o'clock hour, and then we'll walk him in.

Speaker 7 (12:26):
I don't even know why we just.

Speaker 12 (12:33):

Speaker 5 (12:33):
I don't even know why we said, you're you talk
about like seventh grader classic.

This early in the morning.

Speaker 5 (13:10):

does it and do with CDs nuts Plaza trip. He's like,
you guys, will you do it six in the morning,
you gots Yeah?

Speaker 6 (13:25):
Oh man, that's good stuff.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Also some good stuff over the weekend, uh, the Hall
of Fame for the Houston Astros. Ken Keimenetti was inducted
into the Astros Hall of Fame. So good stuff from him.
And there was a radio broadcaster for gosh, tang it, Renee,

(13:48):
Why am I drawing a blank?

Speaker 6 (13:49):
Come on?

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Yeah, Renee Renee Cardadinius both joined the Astros Hall of Fame.

Speaker 6 (13:56):
So good stuff over the weekend. Yeah, that's good.

Speaker 9 (13:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (13:59):
I saw gradual Ken, cammin Eddie his entire family there,
obviously obviously Renee.

Speaker 4 (14:04):
Cardinas as well. It was pretty good stuff for that
Hall of Fame. Man, if you ever ever get a
chance to get out to Minima Park, go up and
down Hall of Fame Alley right beyond the Crawford boxes.
You can check out all the memorabilia and things like that.

Speaker 7 (14:16):
Pretty impressive list of players the man.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
Yeah, and there's going to be some more added in
the Astros pitching staff. Just let's let's have fromer Valdez
and Hunter Brown concern since June first. Fromer Valdez is
ten and two with a two point six ERA ninety
innings pitch ninety three strikeouts, Hunter Brown ten and two,

(14:39):
two point three three e r A eighty five innings
pitched ninety two strikeouts. Between the two, they are twenty
and four since June first. You think that's any good,
it's mid decent, It's okay, unreal, I mean, just another
weird part of the season. When Hunter Brown started the
first five or so games, You're like, who, what's happened?

(15:04):
And now the guy is like an ace? And then
to stave off who's the ace of the team, I'll
be damned to from Bert and said, well, you know what,
all this talk, let me put.

Speaker 7 (15:13):
A stop to this here. Let you guys know who
the ace is.

Speaker 5 (15:16):
And because if you'd asked me six weeks ago, I'd
told you that I thought the ace and I did
on Twitter. I Hunter Brown that the guy you give
him the ball and he's pumping it up there and
going out there and giving you hardcore innings every single
frigging night or every single you know, fifth day, whatever
it was that he was getting the ball and impressive,
and then Fromber's like hold that for say and hold

(15:36):
my beer. Let me go show you what it's all about.
And he has been phenomenal and they're getting it at
the right time. And you know, I just what this
staff has done while they've waited for the hitting to
perk up, and the perk you know, the hitting has
but there's still I still think there's plenty on the
table hitting wise for the Astros. I don't think they've

(15:57):
I don't think they've peaked this year. I don't think so.
I mean, you got your core hitters right, Al Tuve Jr.
Non Bregman, obviously you need to get Kyle Tucker back,
and then JANR.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Diez has done a really good job. But then you
still look at Jake Myers over three yesterday hitting two
thirty one. Then you got some of these rookies. The
rookies are gonna be rookies. Dubon was over to we
know what he brings to the table. And then Chas McCormick.
I really I'm just like at a loss for words
with Chas McCormick. He looks so bad at the plays
over to yesterday with a walk, hitting a buck ninety three,

(16:30):
not even slugging three hundred.

Speaker 5 (16:31):
Well, you can tell he himself's not sure what he's doing. Yeah,
I mean, just confidence wise, he's you know how when
you're going through that, you just start you start searching
for anything. You can find anything, grip the bat, different,
drop the bat, raise the bat, open, close, whatever it
might be. But you can tell his he is struggling

(16:52):
with his approach. There can't be one ounce of him
that's comfortable standing in the batter's box right now.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
Can't be mean he's like an ops of five forty
seven he's had, but that pitching staff continues to give
you every chance to win. Man Chas McCormick is two
for twenty nine in his last uh.

Speaker 6 (17:12):
Yeah, his last twenty nine at bats, two hits. Yeah,
he's just two walks. And then in August, Shawn he's
hitting point zero six nine.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Yeah, and the power is obviously left here in twenty
twenty four for him. So it's, you know, like I said,
going through that, you know he's I mean, those are things.
Those guys labor with that stuff. They I mean every
day they're dealing with it.

Speaker 7 (17:35):
It's hard to do.

Speaker 5 (17:35):
And then you got to go back to the plate
and find it, and you hope you have one of
those games where he's four for four and then it
just hit and you don't know why. Yeah, and he's
probably right now looking for every answer anywhere. Like you said,
you know, you start changing superstitions. You start I mean,
honest to God, yeah, anything through it. Yes, in any sport,
you're like, you start doing good, get a haircut, I

(17:57):
don't know.

Speaker 7 (17:57):
What it is, face, you do whatever is.

Speaker 5 (18:00):
Yeah, you start driving to work different, you go different route,
you eat something different, and then it's simply one little
mechanical flaw or one thing and you fix that. Before
you know it. You think it was the steak you
were eating is the reason why you're hitting, and it's not.
But then it comes together and you kind of ease
up on yourself. The biggest problem is with everybody beating
him up. Nobody beating himself up more probably than the

(18:21):
guy himself, because you know when you come right now,
we've all been there. You know, when you come to
the plate, you have basically you don't have any shot.
That's what you're thinking, I've done it. Even a quarterback,
you're like the guy from me to you we're warming up,
and I'm like, it just doesn't even feel right, like, man.
And when you go through those which is a little

(18:42):
much easier to do in baseball than any other sport, right,
but that case of the yips, and then, like I said,
then you start reaching, man, you start going places you
didn't even dream about going, trying to find out what's
wrong with your swing or with your game, when all
it is is some little mechanical movement or some psychological
thing that you're going through. And when it gets fixed,
you're like, okay, man, all that grind I put it in.

(19:03):
In truth, it wasn't the grind. It was you were
grinding on the wrong thing or didn't adjust the right thing.
Before you know what, you're back at it. But it's
so the confidence fragile. I'm not speaking for Chas McCormick,
but I can't fathom that he goes to the ballpark
every day thinking I'm raking.

Speaker 7 (19:19):
Today, right, which maybe you'd hope that he would.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
But it's the rare man who can have his ass
handed to him at bat after a bat, after a bat,
and then finally and still say, oh, I'm a.

Speaker 7 (19:30):
Damn good hitter. Yeah, it's hard to do. You make
other people.

Speaker 5 (19:34):
You may think that, but when you're going through it,
it's hard to apply it and other people are ripping
you to shreds. It's hard to seet that and say,
you know what, I've been into pros, I know what
I'm doing, I know how to do this, and sometimes
you feel like you forget.

Speaker 7 (19:49):
So it's crazy.

Speaker 4 (19:50):
I mean, he is, like I said, two for his
last twenty nine, and then you go into in July,
between July and August, Sean he is, let's see nine four.

Speaker 6 (20:06):
I love doing math on air nine. I'm sorry eleven
for seventy four.

Speaker 7 (20:14):
Yeah, that's just.

Speaker 6 (20:16):
A buck forty eight.

Speaker 7 (20:17):
That's when you.

Speaker 5 (20:18):
Come to the plate you feel like you have no idea,
and I think it's pretty obvious.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
Last pretty much month and a half you have, he's
been hitting a buck forty eight.

Speaker 6 (20:28):
Yeah that sucks like that.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
That just as a player, that is so frustrating, and
you gotta go, you gotta you gotta put your head down,
you gotta go back to work. Yeah you know, yeah,
oh yeah, grab your lunch pail. But it lays up
those boots, put it back after it.

Speaker 5 (20:43):
Tell you what it does do though it does make
it difficult, even though they do to run him out there.

Speaker 8 (20:48):
Right.

Speaker 5 (20:48):
I hate to say that, but it makes it difficult
to keep putting them in the lineup because you're like,
we're playing with eight guys, and then if somebody else
in the lineup is and you're playing with seven, and
you just hope that one point when you put him
in there, that pinch hit home run, and then the
next to bat the next game you're playing him and
he gets three hits out of four times a plate
times of the plate and shifts his paradigms and gets

(21:10):
him rolling. So it's like I said, we can sit
here and beat down on them all we want there
and nobody beating down himself harder than he is right now.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
Yeah, there's no question about it, all right, Alex Bregman
was absent from the lineup all weekend long. What is
going on with Bregman? You know we're talking about Chas
McCormick struggles. He might be struggling to see pitches. Sean,
you know who you can.

Speaker 7 (21:30):
Go to, Yeah, doctor Jeff wits it.

Speaker 5 (21:32):
If that's the case, let's go just go in there
and get yourself a good visit with the best eyecare
guy in the country, doctor Jeff wits It. Whether it
doesn't matter what you're going through, He's there for you.
And the Lasik procedure was simple, quick recovery, not on
the table long and seeing better than I had in
two and a half decades or three decades since the

(21:54):
prime of my vision.

Speaker 7 (21:55):
I feel like I'm in it, which is a good thing.

Speaker 5 (21:56):
And sometimes you say I should have done it sooner,
but we all want to do our due diligents right
figure out, Okay, do I need this, what's best for me?
What doctor do I go see? And after you do that,
you'll those paths will lead right to doctor whitst It's

Speaker 5 (22:37):
Go see him witsit vision dot com, Doctor Jeff wits
it at witsit vision dot com.

Speaker 4 (22:45):
But the Shawn Salisbury show continues. It's unbelievable to me
until she gets that wagon back. I don't respect her for.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
I think you saw there's no way you can lose
the forty pounds of ass that fast?

Speaker 6 (22:58):
Can you you seen her?

Speaker 2 (23:00):
Do you?

Speaker 7 (23:00):
What's that drug called? Again?

Speaker 5 (23:04):
But but could you? They should be able that ozipic
thing to be able to spot weight loss. Hey, put
the ozimpic shot here, takes away this, but leave that
ass alone. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, dad ass
or that ass.

Speaker 6 (23:20):
Well, for her, it used to be dad ass, but
now it's just yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:24):
But you don't so you you you wanted to pull
a four by four. Yeah, you're right. You wanted to
start keep pulling four by four that ass is and
then sing that song. Yeah, because right now it's like
it's a two bad, two bad man.

Speaker 7 (23:38):
What happened four by four?

Speaker 9 (23:40):
By you?

Speaker 5 (23:41):
But you don't put respect.

Speaker 6 (23:42):
I really hope it was just a bad angle that
I said.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
I want to say it's just the angle of the
angle of the camera. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
That's good.

Speaker 7 (23:50):
Yeah, Lane, she got that.

Speaker 5 (23:51):
She got a little soul with a little sould twang,
a little soul in her voice.

Speaker 9 (23:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Her and Post Malone were got a lot of labs
going on, right, he does, man, Morgan Wallace, Yeah, Luke Combs,
Laney Wilson, Yeah, he was at him and him and
Laney Wilson performed at the Grand Lobbery together over the weekend.

Speaker 5 (24:09):
Post Walloons bringing the collabs at the Country World.

Speaker 7 (24:12):
Man, it's cool to see.

Speaker 4 (24:14):
I think it's also pretty funny that in today's day
and age, for whatever reason, anybody that loses weight like
they could be busting their ass to loose six pounds, yeah,
sixty pounds, eating right, getting in the gym, doing everything,
cutting out alcohol, doing everything right. And the first thing
people were gonna lay was, oh, dude, how much you
pay for that ozempic?

Speaker 13 (24:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (24:33):
You can no longer now be in shape and just
eat right lose weight without something. Now, I understand if
somebody lose one hundred pounds in a week and a half,
You're like, well, was there surgery involved, or what's going on.

Speaker 7 (24:43):
But yeah, you're right.

Speaker 5 (24:44):
It's like, oh he lost five pounds, gotta be ozempic.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:48):
Yeah, as if the person couldn't like just change their
eating habits, right.

Speaker 9 (24:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (24:51):
Like this morning when I when I got in here,
you were, you know, you were talking about Laney Wilson,
and I was like, yeah, she's on.

Speaker 5 (24:58):
I went straight to I was was the guet. I said,
you don't put any respect on that song. It's a
good cut. Like, I don't care about the song right now,
I'm just okie doker with the o zippic conversation. Yeah, man,
stray bullets at Landy Wilson. Sorry, I sh'll get back
after yeah, post on. A lot of collabs going on, man,
a lot of collabs. Yeah, he's uh his career. He

(25:22):
went from like would you say rap? Yeah, that's That's
what I'm saying. He's now got himself. Now he's like
country big time, like being welcomed too, you know, adding
a little different flavor to it.

Speaker 4 (25:36):
Do you know how dude rips heaters like he smokes
a heater like once every five minutes.

Speaker 5 (25:41):
Well he'll always have that the voice to able to sell.
Now if he's headed to a little more country collab.
That's that heat that grid will help his voice out
beyond believe get a little twang in. Yeah, he's covered
a lot of genres and jumping into all of them.
He's like, why not, and they're all jumping on or
to collab with him.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
He looks the part. Yeah, that grungey throwing a what
is it the Canadian jumpsuit? Canadian?

Speaker 2 (26:07):
What is it?

Speaker 7 (26:08):
What's your tuxedo?

Speaker 5 (26:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (26:10):
Canadians zero? Yeah, pants and jacket her shirt?

Speaker 5 (26:14):
Yeah, him on dinim But he's really uh, I like
his guts going outside. You know he has shifted around,
moved around and kind of involved himself.

Speaker 7 (26:23):
Why not though? More you can do?

Speaker 9 (26:24):
Right?

Speaker 7 (26:24):
Haven't they told you that your whole life?

Speaker 9 (26:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (26:26):
Pretty much?

Speaker 5 (26:27):
You know another pretty of you do?

Speaker 7 (26:28):
You know who? Uh?

Speaker 5 (26:30):
You heard the Ella Langley Riley Green collab? Who Ella
Langley Young? That's what I said. When you hear I promise,
are you going to say like LED's nuts in your rath.

Speaker 7 (26:42):
Ello Ryano? No, I'm being serious.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
The reason why I say it is because you ever
you know that voice like a Tanya Tucker old school voice,
he say, she sounds like she's like forty five she's
got that old soul in her voice. Listen to that
song and then you look at the picture we talk
about the voice. It's like Ella Langley is a real person. Yes,
you look at you listen to the voice on that song.

Speaker 6 (27:03):
Is that you look like you love me?

Speaker 7 (27:04):
Yes? Greg, Yeah, you got to listen to it.

Speaker 5 (27:06):
And when you do, you'll come back and you'll say
that voice is for somebody in her twenties. You'll look
at you say, that's got Tanya Tucker after thirty albums
written all over it, right, someone like that. So I
just we got some bright stars on the field and
off it, okay, And you all you care about is
Landy Wilson's eight tractor trailer she's pulling.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
Ella Langley was born in ninety nine. I know, it's crazy,
it's twenty five. That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (27:31):
When you listen to her voice, you're gonna say there's
way too much old school in that voice for her
only be twenty five years old. Riley Green's coming on strong. Yeah,
that's what I'm saying that both of them on the rise.
Man good cut.

Speaker 4 (27:43):
The amount of women that are obsessed with Riley Green
here lately, not because of his music, but.

Speaker 5 (27:48):
Really's h apparently are you attracted to him?

Speaker 8 (27:52):
Am? I?

Speaker 7 (27:52):
Yeah? Physically?

Speaker 4 (27:53):
I mean, if we're talking who pulls more than you know,
I'll dive into that topic. But as of right now,
I mean, I mean, my guy's you know, he's he's
not a bad looking dude.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
I guess you're checking him out.

Speaker 6 (28:05):
He might be.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
He might be in the category of Gabe Capler. You know,
gab cap what's Gabe Capler up to these Dave's Probably
he hasn't gotten a job in baseball somewhere.

Speaker 5 (28:13):
Probably enjoyed all that money on the contract. Yeah, Gabriel Capler, Yeah,
called him Gabriel.

Speaker 6 (28:20):
Do you think anybody in baseballs ever called him Gabriel?

Speaker 5 (28:23):
Yes? I hope so his mother Gabriel. Do you think
it's Gabe Caprier? Do you think he was born Gabriel Capler.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
Let's find out. Let's go to the tail of tape.
Let's see Gabe Capler.

Speaker 5 (28:34):
Uh, that's not it's Gabe Kaplan.

Speaker 7 (28:37):
A comedian.

Speaker 5 (28:39):

back Cotter.

Speaker 7 (28:43):

Speaker 4 (28:47):
Gabe Capler. Gabriel Stefan Kapler. What do you think his
nickname is?

Speaker 5 (28:53):
G Steph, No, Gabriel, I don't know what is it?

Speaker 7 (29:00):

day's cap call him called kapla cap.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
Right down the road off Kirby. You got to Miko
Ryan's head coach. They don't call him coach.

Speaker 5 (29:14):
Miko cap cap yep. So there you go, the Capler.

Thank you, good night, thank you a good night.

Speaker 4 (29:39):
You want to talk about Alex Bregman and uh tough tough,
see about his injury.

Speaker 5 (29:45):
We need to know Alex Bregman's sleep patterns. Man shelved
him for three and it could possibly be more. The
hell of a story if he's sticking with it. What
happened Alex Bregman. Why did he not play over the weekend.
We'll discussed the next right here on the Sewan Salathbury.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
The Shawn Salisbury Show continues.

Speaker 4 (30:04):
You need to know no now, you know, elbow, some soreness,
sleep it on it wrong. This is Alex Bregman describing
what's going on.

Speaker 14 (30:15):
Really sure, slept on it, woke up, didn't really feel
that great a few days ago, and I just kind
of played through it for a day.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
And yeah, slept on it wrong, didn't feel so good,
tried to play through it. Yep, and he did not
play this weekend. Well, the media asked him, how long
do you think you'll be out?

Speaker 8 (30:42):
Yeah, just a few days.

Speaker 14 (30:44):
Rest, rest for a few days and build back into
it and then hopefully be ready to roll here like
a few days.

Speaker 6 (30:50):
Okay, a few days.

Speaker 5 (30:52):
So we'll see if he's back in the lineup today.
All right, far be it for me to anybody's injury.

Speaker 7 (31:01):
I don't know. That's it.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
And it's an elbow, an elbow three games from sleeping
on it wrong. I'm trying normally when you do that,
it's all you like, you twist the thumb, your shoulders
usually where I get it right, if you slept wrong
or a kink in your neck.

Speaker 7 (31:22):
I don't know. I mean he may fell off the
bed landed on it. I don't know. I'm being serious.
I mean, I don't know. Man.

Speaker 5 (31:31):
Yeah, I mean I'm putting. I am put yourself in
a bunch of different positions.

Speaker 7 (31:35):
What would.

Speaker 5 (31:38):
Basically get that elbow out that cause you miss a
full series?

Speaker 7 (31:43):
That would be your shoulder there, so.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
You gots like my elbow, like Sean, if you.

Speaker 5 (31:49):
Hyper extended it while you're sleeping. It sat there for
a while, but you'd think after a little session of
moving it around, it would go back.

Speaker 7 (31:56):
Get the little flow going, right.

Speaker 4 (31:58):
I really hope this isn't going to be one of
those weird issues like what we saw with Carlos Krey
and when he broke his rib from his massage therapist that.

Speaker 5 (32:10):
She massaged and Marhee massag whoever whose massage therapist was
with a sledge hammer? Right, Yeah, exactly. Hey dude, he
lay on your stomach. Yeah, what are you gonna do?
I got this sledge hammer. I'm just gonna take five
shots at your rib cage and hope that it whips
you back into shape.

Speaker 4 (32:26):
Yeah, I heard, I heard After that injury for Carlos
Krea that he fired either he or she that was
doing that massage and then went to Deshaun Watson for
massage therapist advice. Why you know I had to crow bar?
Why do you got a king crowbar? Come on, why
do you got a crow bar?

Speaker 9 (32:46):
It?

Speaker 6 (32:47):
Yeah, it's just what I heard, man.

Speaker 5 (32:48):
I think you got false information from who whoever, whoever
wanted you to king crowbar?

Speaker 4 (32:54):
That in just saying the streets talk. Then streets sometimes
just screwed. Okay, are the streets screwed? Are they just
usually on point?

Speaker 2 (33:02):
On point?

Speaker 7 (33:03):
I think the streets are overrated.

Speaker 5 (33:07):
When you got your ear down to the to the pavement,
you gotta put your ear to the pavement on the streets.

Speaker 6 (33:11):
Or when you have your ear to your mattress and
you're sleeping on your elbow, right.

Speaker 7 (33:13):
What could happen? No, the streets don't.

Speaker 5 (33:17):
What I'm saying is sometimes the word on the street
ain't the word does? That makes sense because sometimes the
word on the streets created that is true. Okay, it
depends on Now, if it's the the you know that
group of your peeps, and that's the word on the streets,
that's usually golden that has good village. Yeah it does,
and length as well. Sustained the length. That's because reliable sources,

(33:40):
your buddies. You go back way, pop one into your
you know, your local store or your local place you
go get your haircut, wherever you go, get to your groceries,
the people, your time.

Speaker 7 (33:50):
On the streets.

Speaker 5 (33:51):
Yeah, that's where you get it. But now the streets
are the social media. The streets sometimes that's the wrong
place to go to get good stuff. But okay, I'm
just trying. I'm not making fun. I'm just let me
be the let me be the devil's advocate.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
This'll be good.

Speaker 5 (34:09):
Who misses three games. I'm not saying you've correct me
if I'm wrong here. Have you ever in your life
heard of anybody sleeping on their arms so wrong that
their elbow kept them out for three games and they
got to work their way slowly back into it. I

(34:29):
have never heard of that. I, like I said, I don't.

Speaker 7 (34:33):
Know what it is.

Speaker 5 (34:35):
I think you'd probably have a better chance of selling
me a little waterfront property in Arizona. Well maybe it's
maybe it's uh uh, you know out there in this
you know, Lake Swaro or something Okay, maybe it is.
You don't know, right, Here's some lake mead. Okay, we'll

(34:55):
go up here. Here's some lake have Asu.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
Okay, So bizarre injuries in Major League Baseball history. Remember
Martin Perez picture for the Rangers. He fractured an elbow
after a bull startled him on his ranch. There's that one.
There's also who's the one that had frostbite? Kevin Pollar

(35:22):
back in twenty fifteen. Strain is oblique by sneezing.

Speaker 5 (35:27):
Now I can tell you this, See, I think that
sounds more real than any of them. Have you ever
tried to keep a sneeze in but you sneeze and
it blowed the middle of your back between your shoulder
blades spasms because you didn't just let the full sneeze out,
and your back like gets jarred from it. I can
buy that one. Actually.

Speaker 4 (35:45):
Jeff Kent back in two two thousand the motorcycle that
he broke his wrists after falling off his truck at
a car wash.

Speaker 6 (35:52):
But they did some due diligence.

Speaker 7 (35:53):
Any was riding a motorcycle.

Speaker 4 (35:55):
He was doing wheelies with his motorcycle, right.

Speaker 5 (36:00):
Pretty, which he wanted to do in his contract, right, right, listen.
I don't know the reason. All I'm stating is that
an elbow injury to miss three.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
Games is odd. Marty Cordy sleeping. Marty Cordova burned himself
all in the tanning bed because he fell asleep. Okay,
but you fell asleep? Is it at home? Did he
have the home tanning bed? I think so, because at
some point in time somebody knocks on those doors, don't they.
If you're in a ta, you gotta make reservations, right, yep,

(36:34):
So he fell asleep in there. Francisco Leriano broke his
arm by slamming the door on himself and an attempt
to scare his kids on Christmas.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
Hmm, sure did.

Speaker 9 (36:46):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (36:47):
Let's see.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
Will Smith when he was with the Brewers towards L
C L while he was balancing, balancing on one leg,
trying to take off his shoe.

Speaker 5 (36:58):
HM, better balance next time. But hey, listen, I far
be it for us to question it. I just said
it's an odd injury. Correct.

Speaker 4 (37:08):
Joelle Peralta tweaked his neck during spring training in twenty
thirteen while getting out of his Camaro on a trip
to get some sandwiches.

Speaker 7 (37:16):
I mean, that's a long explanation. Where are you going?

Speaker 5 (37:18):
Just I was going to the store, but you had
to go go in to the store, go on a
trip to get some sandwiches. Tweaked my neck getting getting
out of the camaro. Okay, listen, like I said.

Speaker 6 (37:29):
Let me just get two more, two more.

Speaker 4 (37:32):
Corey Hart, when he was with the Pittsburgh Pirates, had
to get stitches because he fell out of a hot tub.

Speaker 5 (37:38):
He catches so open. But can you see that slipping
out of a hot top? Yes, you can see that.

Speaker 6 (37:42):
I can see that.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
One yep.

Speaker 4 (37:47):
Ian Stewart, when he was with the Angels, took a
blow to the nose while putting his daughter to bed.
She accidentally head butted him, and he said he heard
a crunchy sound.

Speaker 6 (37:57):
How he knew that his.

Speaker 5 (37:58):
I think that whenever he was I think whenever you
put kids in it, that it's like bad karma to
lie about that. So I'm gonna buy into that one.
I'm gonna buy Have you ever like yourself, like your
hand slipped off and your back of your hand hits
you in the nose? You did makes your eyes water?
So I'm gonna buy into the guys don't include s.
I always say don't include family members or kids in

(38:20):
something that happened that was that was wrong if it
didn't because that lyeing karma.

Speaker 9 (38:25):
I don't.

Speaker 7 (38:26):
I just don't believe in that.

Speaker 5 (38:27):
It's like I'll never go into a hospital and sit
in a wheelchair and you know how people are in
the waiting room will sometimes sit in them.

Speaker 7 (38:35):
I will not. I will not do it, even if
you would not do it. I don't stand.

Speaker 5 (38:39):
I don't walk on my feet, never touch the parking,
handicapped parking, the blue and the handicap. I will not
walk on the paint job. Oh really, ever damn, I
walk around it, and I will not drive on it.
You know, hey, I'll run in the store for five minutes,
I'll park and had bad karma. You don't do that.
It's not reserved for you. So that's part of the

(39:00):
my OCD. But ed respect as well. But dude, okay,
you tell me. Is it an odd injury? Odd to
be out three games and not sure when you're coming
back with an elbow elbow injury from when you slept
on it.

Speaker 4 (39:16):
Glenn Allen Hill back in the eighties crashed through a
glass table and laying it on the DL after you
stumbled through his home trying to escape spiders in his nightmare.

Speaker 7 (39:24):
It's a great one. I love that.

Speaker 6 (39:26):
Hey, excuse me. That was in nineteen ninety.

Speaker 5 (39:28):
Everybody ought to use the Glenn Allen Hill one great one. Well,
step another little, real, quick little stat.

Speaker 6 (39:35):
I had some bad a bad dream.

Speaker 5 (39:36):
Glenn Allen Hill is the only guy in history did
any Homer four times in a game, only guy in
history that homeber four times in a game and got
hurt because the spiders in his dream. There there there's
one for you.

Speaker 7 (39:48):
So I don't know.

Speaker 5 (39:48):
I'm just ask him. Do you think it's an odd injury?

Speaker 7 (39:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (39:52):
One game, right, But do you think it's a little odd?
Did sleeping wrong would keep you out for that many games?
From an elbow? Not a show like a shoulder kink
gets pushed, you know, you wake up in the middle
of the night and you just you have a sore
shoulder or or you you know, sometimes you can dislocate it.
You have to know and pop it back in. A
buddy of mine used to feel ground balls and blow
out his shoulder because it was like it's one of

(40:14):
those loose he had, just a loose shoulder. You feel
the ground ball, and you had to go pop it
back in like dog on, like you see still on
one of those stath them doing all those movies banging
it against a wall, right, or as buddy, we have
to go pop it back in.

Speaker 7 (40:26):
Yeah, right.

Speaker 5 (40:27):
So I just it's just I said, it's an odd inngine.
It's very weird, and that's has to be. And if
it kept you out three games, it has to be painful.

Speaker 9 (40:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (40:34):
For Alex Bregmant, I figure out three games with an elbow, Yeah,
from sleeping on it wrong.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
That's tough.

Speaker 7 (40:41):
Yeah, tough.

Speaker 6 (40:45):
At least you're not Glenn Allen Hill the Spiders.

Speaker 7 (40:48):
In your dreams, right through a plate glass door.

Speaker 5 (40:50):
Follow the table, Yeah, find yourself on the I l
then go hit four home runs a few days right.

Speaker 6 (40:55):
Back in the nineties.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
All right, this is uh this baseball season. Let's look
at it as a whole. Uh, six weeks left in
the season. Let's look at where the Astros stack up
against the rest of baseball. It's been a weird baseball season.
But with these statistics I got in front of us, man,

To usc true longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
Ryan lo Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sean Salsbury Show.

Speaker 6 (43:43):
John, good morning, Good morning guys.

Speaker 15 (43:46):
Hey, Uh, I'm gonna also chime in a little bit
on some strange injuries. Then I just want to first off,
I want to credit the astros. I mean, no matter
what is thrown at him, like the most recent Bragman matter,
they just keep trucking along and keep plugging in the
young players. And it's a credit to SPATA and the organization.
And uh but yeah, there's uh, here's here's a strange one.

(44:08):
Brandon Ing strained his oblique when he was fluffing his
daughter's pillow. He played for the Detroit Tigers. That's kind
of a strange one. And then there was uh, well
you know Tommy Glavin, he broke his ribs, thrown up
her plane food. And then the final one is Brett Maine.
He had back spasms checking for traffic before crossing the street.

(44:32):
So I thought I'd just throw those in there too.

Speaker 5 (44:34):
Could you could you imagine getting injured looking across the street.

Speaker 7 (44:41):
A little bit of a little fragile. Yeah, how'd you
get hurt?

Speaker 5 (44:44):
You got the reason why you got to believe it
is because that's it's two.

Speaker 7 (44:50):
You couldn't Why would you come up with that story?

Speaker 2 (44:52):
If you know you like that.

Speaker 5 (44:54):
All the things you could say, well, I slammed on
my brakes because I saw I thought I was going
to run into somebody in a game. He whipped out
my back, got spams. But to say I was standing
there looking at the cross, looking both ways and I,
you know, blew out my back or whatever it was,
that is so far fetched that it's got to be real.

Speaker 11 (45:12):
Yeah, well, how do you how do you strain your oblique?

Speaker 8 (45:15):
Fluffing your daughter's pillow? I don't get that one at all.

Speaker 5 (45:18):
Takes a lot of torque. Yeah, a lot of torque fluffing.
Hell of core work, Okay, a lot of core work
on the fluff.

Speaker 8 (45:27):
I don't know if a pillow was a moose or what.

Speaker 5 (45:29):
Right of all those things we just read, what's the
percentage of them that are that were the real injury?
Twenty five percent? Probably, Yeah, the most outlandish, the most
outlandish ones are the real ones.

Speaker 7 (45:43):
Because you're thinking, you can't come up with something you can't.

Speaker 5 (45:46):
I can't bring the daughter into it and blame the
injury on the daughter if the daughter wasn't part of
the fluffing the pillow injury, right, you just can't do it.

Speaker 8 (45:55):
Yeah, you remember, you remember George Brett?

Speaker 15 (45:57):
Oh yeah, he broke his toe running to the TV.

Speaker 5 (46:02):
I'll tell you what though, Have you guys ever kicked
the side of the bed in the middle of the night.

Speaker 6 (46:05):
It's the worst.

Speaker 7 (46:07):
Oh, with a small toe.

Speaker 5 (46:08):
And when you break a toe, guess what, you can't
do anything. No, okay, not a damp thing. It's like
fingers and toes you either. If they're not surgically replacing,
you just got to split them up or deal with it. Ben,
And you get to the point like I got nine more,
I'll deal with you know, this one's bruised and broken.
I got nine more. So there you go. That's the

(46:28):
way it works. Great stuff, jo, It.

Speaker 11 (46:31):
Goes across, It crows across all sports.

Speaker 8 (46:33):
So, Dave Bizant, I don't know who that is.

Speaker 15 (46:35):
A soccer player severed a toe tendon while he's trying
to juggle a bottle of salad dressing. I don't understand
that one either.

Speaker 5 (46:43):
Well, what he what We didn't say there was a
machete in between the tossing of the rams dressing to.

Speaker 7 (46:50):
It came down a chut. Now with the legitimate one.

Speaker 5 (46:52):
When Ronnie Lot we've talked about cut off his finger
so he wouldn't miss games because it had like surgis
and forget it. Just cut the damn thing off, stitch
it up, and he didn't miss any games. That's how
you do that. If you ever want toughness, you need
not look any further than that.

Speaker 7 (47:07):
Dude, what'd you do?

Speaker 9 (47:08):
Dude?

Speaker 5 (47:08):
Oh? Man, I overcame a hamstring pull. No, I cut
a finger off. Okay, I guess you like football? Yeah
a little bit? What what? Okay? Well we kid of
about It's like, but you do you look around? He's
such a nice guy. Yeah, you think that guy was
a trained killer on the field. What proved that we
He did cut his finger off to play football? Hey, honey,

(47:29):
what do you there's the perfect I got nine more. Man,
We're good, We're good.

Speaker 8 (47:33):
That's probably why I played. That's probably why I played
football like a beast.

Speaker 5 (47:36):
Oh yeah, hey, and by the way, what kind of
pain you can inflict on me? What do you mean?
Will I cut my finger off to continue to play
try to out.

Speaker 7 (47:51):
Yeah, that's one of those. That's one of those.

Speaker 5 (47:53):
You go to a party, John, and you know how
but he's playing the topp or the one up guy.
Will you know well I bought a Ferrari. Well yeah,
but I bought the Lamborghini. But this is one where
you go to the party and everybody say, all these
former players standing around, Yeah, man, well I play with
a hammy. Yeah, I had a shoulder separation. Then Ronnie
walks and says, yeah, I only got nine more of these.
I cut this one off so I wouldn't miss any games.

(48:14):
You win, dog, you're the champion, and he's the nicest guy.
And I'm telling you what toughest hundred year old leather.
But you don't need to tell him he's tough because
you finger off it. I think we've proved it quite proven. John,
great stuff, man, you bet all right. Let's get from
one John to another. John before gets the steake out, John,
welcome in. How you doing fantastic? What's on your mind

(48:35):

Speaker 2 (48:47):
Yeah, I think you're right.

Speaker 16 (48:50):
We were coming back from from a gig up and
up in love itck, you know. And I heard a
comment on the radio.

Speaker 5 (48:59):
By mister Robert Ford.

Speaker 16 (49:02):
I mean, I don't I understand that the White Sox
are having a hard, you know, season, right, How can
you say, well, as far as though the Chicago White
Socks have been eliminated from the wild Card I mean,
how can you there was you know, what would you
say something like that?

Speaker 13 (49:22):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (49:23):
You know I I uh so, what have they been? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (49:26):
They so, John Just to kind of go off of
that what you just said, major League Baseball actually tweeted
that out yesterday on their official Twitter account.

Speaker 6 (49:34):
So they have officially.

Speaker 5 (49:36):
Been eliminated, you know, from from playoff contention.

Speaker 16 (49:41):
Yeah, well, you know, I feel sorry for those guys anyway,
but he'll be back one day anyway, Buddy, Alex Bregman,
what is he editated elbow or what?

Speaker 10 (49:52):
Uh?

Speaker 12 (49:54):
What's with that?

Speaker 6 (49:55):
Not sure?

Speaker 2 (49:56):
Not sure.

Speaker 6 (49:56):
Johnny just said he slept on it wrong. It's been sore,
he needed to need it.

Speaker 4 (50:00):
A couple of days off and hopefully he's back in
the lineup today kind of weird, but uh, that's just
what he told us.

Speaker 16 (50:08):
That's my that's my man right there. Man, I mean
he's a he's a total player in third base.

Speaker 5 (50:13):
By by the way, John, Yeah, he sure is. He
said he's having a really good second half of the season.
Did you know that the White Sox have been eliminated
from the playoffs, the wild the wild card.

Speaker 7 (50:25):
Yeah, I'm just kidding. Yeah, they're seventy four out there.
You go.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
Yeah, preciate take care, John, thank you?

Speaker 6 (50:35):
Yea White Sox have officially eliminated.

Speaker 5 (50:38):
What was what was was he? I mean Robert Ford
was just stating the facts, right MLB. I mean they
have been officially aren't they the first team to be
officially eliminated there that far out? Yeah, I mean if
there's a fun little it's not a Robert Ford does
not seem like the type guy to ever get a
dig in, right, seemed like he has fun. Yeah, I

(50:58):
think that they he's such a it's professional. I don't
think he ever is out there to get a dig.
He knows how tough it is for teams to win. No,
but legally and officially, And I know what John was saying,
but they were eliminated. I mean there's nothing. I don't
think we thought they were any threat to go win anything.
But they were eliminated. They talk about that with forty

(51:20):
games to go, you have no shot. Can you imagine that?
And I understand feel sorry for the losing part of it.
Guess what, you don't feel sorry. They're still getting paid.
They are, They're still going to and guess how you
fix it? Play better? Yeah, but I do under nobody
likes to. I've never been on a team that lost
that much. Brian, No, not at any levels. Can't be easy.

(51:40):
Losing sucks. They're not very good. Yep, they have been eliminated.

Speaker 17 (53:22):
The Sean Salisbury Shows.

Speaker 4 (53:33):
Sorry for the stake out here on the Seawan Salisbury Show.
Sean Brown and Tripoli before we get to the steak
Outs got out to the phone line seven one three
two seven eighty Hello Tom.

Speaker 12 (53:44):
Hello, guys, how you doing. I hope your weekend was great?

Speaker 7 (53:48):
It absolutely was, you too, man, what's happening?

Speaker 12 (53:52):
I just wanted to chime in. I remember back in
nineteen eighty seven, Bobby o'heger was trim in his cubic
care I'm sorry him in his hedges and he almost
cut off his thumb. So I remember that that kind
of stick the Mets back in eighty seven.

Speaker 5 (54:06):
But when when you're mowing grass and trimming hedges, you
better be careful. Gotta be careful of those hedges, man.

Speaker 12 (54:15):
God man, you gotta be careful. Hey, listen, man, I
want to I want to make a comment about Joe
Muscatto I mean Joe's spota uh. I got a handerson him.
He's sticking with the plan. Maybe he has nothing else,
but he's sticking with it. I called him milk coast
a two weeks back, but I got to give him credit.
You remember, Rusty Baker was a hell of a ball player.

(54:36):
He knew they were peaks and valleys in Major League.
Even the best players were going to have him. I
remember at the beginning of the season he had said
something U Joe's pottow about Jake Myers. He said, he's
my center fielder, and he filled them up with a
lot of confidence. I think because Myers has had a
terrific season, probably he's best season as an astro. So

(54:58):
he's doing the same thing. I think with McCormick. He
keeps putting them out there and hoping that he's going
to break out of it, and I believe he will.
I believe he'll get to the level of what he's
been at some point, and when he does, I think
it will help the ball club in it. I got
to give him his props, Joey's father. By sticking with players,

(55:18):
there are pieces and valley Sean. I got a question
that I want to throw at you and a football question.
Why did it take fifty years for Ohio State to
put a statue of Archy Ripple in front of the stadium.
What took him so long? I haven't I just don't
get that.

Speaker 5 (55:37):
Well, he's the only guy as we you know, ever
to have won two Heisman trophies. He it was Ohio
State's best college player ever, as witnessed by those trophies.
I don't know why he's been nothing but a great
spokesperson for the university. He's been nothing but class the
whole time. Tom, Yeah, it should. You should be able

(56:00):
to enjoy those things when you know that things should
have been erected right after his college career because he
won two Heismans and that's unprecedented. That that should have
gone up so he can enjoy thirty forty years of it,
you know, while he's in his prime, and go there
and the statue up. I don't know why we have
to wait forty or fifty years or thirty years to
honor somebody with the ring of honor or twenty years later,

(56:22):
or with a statue. If there's a statue outside of
the horseshoe, Archie Griffin should be the first and foremost
on it. So, yeah, Tom, you make a great point. Man,
I don't and thanks for the call. If you, I
mean you look around college campuses, I could see see
right now.

Speaker 7 (56:39):
To be honest with you, shouldn't Tim Tebow already have
one at Florida?

Speaker 6 (56:42):
You would think so.

Speaker 5 (56:43):
I don't know if he does. I don't think so.
But shouldn't he?

Speaker 2 (56:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (56:48):
I mean, in truth, why.

Speaker 5 (56:49):
Wouldn't you here about his I think he's the winningest
quarterback in Florida history. If not, he's damn close and Nashville.
It has nothing to do with what you've done in
the pros. It has what he brought to the end
of the fame and I'm sure fortune and made them better,
brought attention to a university he's I mean, shouldn't he

(57:09):
have one? It would seem Archie Griffin should that statue
should have been resurrected a long time ago. I mean,
when I say, you know, that thing should have been
brought up and built the second Archie Griffin walked off campus.
To me, I almost feel like, if you're a Heisman
Trophy winner, it almost feels like that's an automatic statue.

Speaker 7 (57:33):
Correct.

Speaker 5 (57:33):
As hard as the award is does that make sense?
And it doesn't matter anything? I mean, hell, if I
said Gino Terretta deserves a statue at Miami, you'd say
all those great players. But he did win a Heisman Trophy, right,
there's something be said for that, some kind of statue, right,
whether it's out in front of the stadium or whether
it's in your sports hall, whatever it is, and maybe

(57:54):
he does so, Yes, Archie Griffin should definitely, definitely, definitely.

Speaker 13 (58:00):
Have that.

Speaker 5 (58:01):
That should have happened within five years by the time
he got out of school. I don't know why we
got to wait till you know, somebody's older, or somebody's
passed away, or they only get a couple of years
to enjoy it. Hell, that guy should have been joining
his whole time, right, Not sure why it looks so
long phenomenal. I mean, you can think of other places
where guys have been great. Shouldn't Peyton Manning have a
statue outside of Tennessee already outside of that stadium?

Speaker 6 (58:24):
H huh?

Speaker 7 (58:26):
Now Tom Brady, I don't know. I wouldn't put you.

Speaker 5 (58:30):
Michigan shouldn't put a statue of Brady outside at their stadium?
Should they he was kind of a star New England.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
Should yeah, oh yeah, that's.

Speaker 5 (58:37):
What I'm saying. I'm talking about what they did now,
if you want the lifetime achievment. My point is, if
it's applied to what you did at a university, there
was nobody's ever done with Archie Griffin's done. If there's
anybody who deserves a statue at their university, it's him.

Speaker 7 (58:49):
If you're just talking sports.

Speaker 4 (58:50):
Yeah, yeah, I thought it was kind of odd that
it took that long for guys whos won to heismans.

Speaker 6 (58:57):
I just don't understand.

Speaker 5 (58:58):
I mean, there should already be is at you. I mean, now,
Tiger was at Stanford, correct, he played, shouldn't he Shouldn't
he have a statue out?

Speaker 8 (59:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (59:07):
Maybe he does, but it should be on campus, somewhere
outside the athletic department. It's friggin's Tiger Woods. He's Stanford
guy among all the other And it's not just athletes. Hell,
there's all these brainiacts and smart people that have businesses
and tech companies and done it all.

Speaker 7 (59:22):
Right.

Speaker 5 (59:23):
Yeah, but when it comes to football, Archie Griffins, Tom
makes a great point.

Speaker 7 (59:26):
I don't know why we have to.

Speaker 6 (59:27):
Wait for that yeah, I don't either.

Speaker 4 (59:29):
Let's uh, let's get to break and then i'll uh
you know, let's.

Speaker 6 (59:32):
Just extend the steak out. How about we do that?

Speaker 2 (59:34):
Is that?

Speaker 7 (59:35):
Is that what you want to do?

Speaker 2 (59:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (59:36):
I want to extend the stakeout. Executive decision.

Speaker 5 (59:39):
Whoa aggressive right executive decision?

go to moving.

Speaker 7 (01:01:05):
You know what I'm saying. But we got you.

Speaker 5 (01:01:07):
We're going utually ready to load up a new season
of homework. No movie homework.

Speaker 6 (01:01:13):
You're not doing it all, not in football season. You're crazy.

Speaker 7 (01:01:16):
A master's degree in movie you're not ready for that.

Speaker 6 (01:01:18):
I already got my undograd. We're good.

Speaker 5 (01:01:20):
There you go.

Speaker 6 (01:01:21):
I already got my my my degree.

Speaker 5 (01:01:22):
So you think a movie move a master's degree in
movie study is overrated?

Speaker 9 (01:01:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:01:28):
Just does interest?

Speaker 7 (01:01:29):
I respect it?

Speaker 5 (01:01:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:01:30):
What what peaks my interest is good football around here?

Speaker 2 (01:01:33):
You can find it.

Speaker 5 (01:01:34):
I know where you can find great high school or
should I say youth football leading into high school. And
I love watching getting out to be able to train
my guys quarterbacks and watching these receivers work as they're
getting ready to get it for their first scrimmage. And
football season starts in the high school season. I mean,
we're here, so I love it. And another way to
do it is the Great Football Program. And I call

(01:01:57):
it a program because it's not just the league. It
is a program. When it comes to the Southwest Football
League SFLTX dot org. For freshman only, you have flag
football teaching you the game the right way. For sophomores,
junior scenes, you can go at grades eight, ages eight
to fourteen, grades three through eight. There's also a seven
on seven league if that's what you want. You've got

(01:02:18):
a six on six tackle league for people who want
to do it in smaller version. And then you obviously
have the eleven on eleven where you're playing and the
juniors and seniors can go there and it's the third
to the eighth grade. Obviously, all this different training, there
is no cost to parents equipment. You go there and
get free equipment, and you're going to get on the field,
off the field coaching and mentoring better than any league

(01:02:40):
anywhere in this town and surrounding town. When you got
guys like Malcolm Butler, people who've been there and done
that are there to make sure that your kid and winning. Matt,
don't kid yourself, teaching people. How to win and how
to lose and get back to work are important and
the Southwest Football League will do that against scholarships available.
This isn't just a show up. Play football, not get
it taught right. It's called get it taught right. Teach

(01:03:02):
you how to be a good human being and to
mentor you right and teach you great football. Whether it's
six on six, whether it's seven on seven or eleven
on eleven, but done right, no cost to the parents.
If you want the best football league there is, go
get the app Southwest Football League or go to sfl
TX dot org all your informations there, sign ups for
winding down.

Speaker 7 (01:03:21):
Don't want to pay l eight feet.

Come on in to the best football experience that your
youth is going to have and this is where they
grow their love for the game, and it's at Southwest

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:04:20):
And he validated the yes, Tim Tebow did outside the
you know what campus or the stadium, I guess right
there and in uh in, near the swamp. So that's
a good thing in Gainesville. So they're out there. Archie
Griffin just shouldn't have to wait that long. That's a fact.
Two Heisman trophies it's hard to do. Ask Tim Tebow

(01:04:41):
about it. Ask Caleb Williams about it. It's hard to
go and come back as a heavy favorite and then
not win it. It's hard to do. It's hard to
win it twice, no matter how what kind of favorite
you are, to put those seasons back to back. So
Archie Griffin was phenomenal, but we don't digress, but we digress.
And then they're talking about the mega death guitarist singer

(01:05:02):
who slept on his hand wrong and had to relearn
how to play the guitar because he damned a nurse
so severely.

Speaker 7 (01:05:08):
Got that from a couple guys.

Speaker 5 (01:05:09):
Really, Yeah, I'm dead serious, and uh, I mean that's it,
but it's still it's still an odd, crazy injury. Right,
I know it has happened, but for breaking, imagine having
all that and his is his elbow. But as a guitarist,
I would imagine having your The use of your fingers
is important.

Speaker 2 (01:05:25):
You might need it.

Speaker 5 (01:05:26):
Yeah, crazy stuff, man, Sometimes crazy injuries happen.

Speaker 9 (01:05:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:05:30):
Staying with Major League Baseball, six weeks left, here are
the dozen best records of Major League Baseball. The Phillies
lead the way with seventy three wins fifty one losses,
Dodgers seventy three and fifty two, and then it's the Orioles, Yankees, Guardians, Brewers, Twins, Padres, Royals,
d Backs. And they are the Astros at number eleven,
sixty seven wins, fifty six losses. Then the Braves at

(01:05:52):
sixty six and fifty eight.

Speaker 5 (01:05:53):
Just win the division and take all the play out
of it.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
So my question to you is, do you remember the
last time in Major League Baseball there wasn't a one
hundred win team?

Speaker 5 (01:06:10):
And twenty twenty doesn't count, correct, How is it recent?
How about two thousand and two?

Speaker 6 (01:06:26):
Not that far back? Twenty fourteen?

Speaker 11 (01:06:28):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:06:28):
Okay, So the best team in Major League Baseball right
now is on pace for ninety five wins. Last year
without a one hundred win team was twenty fourteen. All
the home runs that we've seen Shohio Tani doing his thing,
you've got Aaron Judge hitting bombs left and right. Obviously
we've focused a lot on the Astros here locally, the
Diamondbacks were in a World Series last year. They're only

(01:06:50):
sixty nine and fifty six. The Phillies were on fire
at one point and hit a slide their seventy three
and fifty one. And we may not even see one
hundred win team this year year.

Speaker 7 (01:07:00):
That's crazy. So who was that team in ninety In
two thousand and.

Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
Four, the best record? Yeah, were the Giants the odd
or even years when they won all the World.

Speaker 7 (01:07:09):
Series they were even, well, weren't they even years?

Speaker 6 (01:07:14):
Yeah, it was the Giants so.

Speaker 7 (01:07:17):
It was an even year twenty fourteen.

Speaker 6 (01:07:21):
Yeah, they beat the Royals that year.

Speaker 7 (01:07:22):
Oh okay, yeah, there you go.

Speaker 4 (01:07:24):
So, yeah, we didn't in twenty fourteen. That season there
was not a one hundred game winner. Not one team
finished with over one hundred wins. I swear, I feel
like every year there's somebody that in baseball wins over
one hundred games.

Speaker 5 (01:07:38):
Well most of the time there is. That's why it's
I mean, the last time it didn't happen was in
twenty fourteen. I wonder what was the time before that?
So you're talking about basically every decade pretty much is
the odds of it or something? So yeah, it's I mean,
you're usually going to find one that goes on that role. Now,
the question is how many of those teams it had

(01:08:00):
the best record in baseball went on and won a
World Series. I wonder how I wonder how relevant a
stat that is or prevalent? Should I say they're all
relevant stats depending on who you are, I guess, but
I wonder how much that plays in that. How many
times the number one seed or best record in baseball
over the last two decades has won the World Series.

Speaker 6 (01:08:22):
Let's see, so twenty one nineteen.

Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (01:08:26):
So before that it was let's see, I'm just looking
at okay, so here we go. So back in forty two,
nineteen forty two, you had the Royals with one hundred
and two wins, Phillies Yankees, I mean, there's all kind
of different stats in here, with one hundred game winners eggs.

(01:08:49):
Back into just last year, the Braves one hundred and
four wins, the Ools one hundred and one. Los Angeles
with one hundred. Year prior, there were four teams that
won over one hundred games. Twenty one were three twenty nineteen.
There were four Astros in twenty nineteen won one hundred
and seven games.

Speaker 5 (01:09:06):
Yep.

Speaker 7 (01:09:07):
Sure did.

Speaker 5 (01:09:09):
Impressive, But it's not always that one seed because with
that comes pressure, right, the constant grind. I mean Seattle,
remember when they won all those games years ago? Would
they win like one hundred and nine I don't one hundred,
think it was hundred seventeen games and did not win
a World Series?

Speaker 7 (01:09:25):
Yeah, craziness, man.

Speaker 5 (01:09:26):
I just wonder how often if the pressure grows, were
the number one seed over the and it'd be easy
to find if we look it up. But over the
last two decades or three decades? How many times the
number one when we say umber one seed, best record
in baseball won the World Series.

Speaker 6 (01:09:39):
Now, it's not very often.

Speaker 4 (01:09:41):
I wouldn't think so, No, because you look at twenty nineteen,
Houston Astros, best team in baseball lost.

Speaker 5 (01:09:47):
Yeah, I wouldn't think the number Well, last year's number
team did not win the World Series. It was the
you know, the Rangers did not have the best record
in baseball.

Speaker 6 (01:09:56):
No, last year it was the Atlanta Braves.

Speaker 7 (01:09:58):
Exactly right. So it happens, man, and it happens quite often.

Speaker 6 (01:10:03):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (01:10:03):
Hopefully it'll happen for this team this year in a
non best record in baseball. Matter of fact, the eleventh
best right now, I guess is what you said, right, yeah,
eleventh peas they go in there and win the division
and go win a World Series. That's a good thing.
But win the division, so then you take out all
the questions about wild card and you know, matchups head
to head and all those things and tie breakers, I

(01:10:24):
guess is what I'm talking about. Prevent that, just go
win the division.

Speaker 6 (01:10:28):
So in twenty eighteen, the Boston Red Sox won the
World Series. They were the number one.

Speaker 7 (01:10:33):
Seed, they played great baseball the entire season.

Speaker 4 (01:10:36):
Twenty nineteen, twenty seventeen, the Dodgers had the best record,
twenty nine.

Speaker 5 (01:10:41):
They did not win the World Series. Twenty nineteen was
the Houston Astros. They did not win the World Series.
Giants in twenty twenty one, they did not win the
World Series. Dodgers in twenty twenty two they did not
win it. And then the Atlanta Brays last year.

Speaker 7 (01:10:52):
And the Rangers won it. There you go.

Speaker 5 (01:10:54):
So it's a not having the best records not a
bad thing.

Speaker 4 (01:10:57):
Right, It's just weird how this baseball season is gone tight.
The races are no question, the Houston Astros leading their division,
and Justin Verlander looks like he's going to return this week.

Speaker 6 (01:11:09):

Speaker 9 (01:13:14):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:13:14):

Speaker 5 (01:13:17):
I've heard.

Speaker 7 (01:13:18):
I mean, I've heard the guy, but I don't know who's.

Speaker 4 (01:13:19):
His name is Zach Campbell, and he's like the creepy
old dude that literally boxes out kids.

Speaker 5 (01:13:26):
The guy that we talk about every I mean that
the national media talks about every year about getting foul.

Speaker 4 (01:13:31):
Balls and home run Yeah he's the home run yeah yeah.
So I don't know what he looks like basically a
lot of a lot of baseball fans hate this dude
because he is notorious for trampling anybody and everybody that
gets in his way to try to get these home
run balls. And he has a unique ability to be
in the right place at the right time for home runs.

(01:13:52):
And over the weekend, he was in Baltimore at that
game and he was in right field, Adley Rutchman in
a home run. Of course, hample Zach Hampbell comes sprinting
over to try and get this home run ball, and
a fan saw him running, boxed him out, hit him, like,

(01:14:15):
boxed him out, hit him and slammed him into a
foul pole or into a flagpole out in right field.
Just just absolutely phenomenal stuff. This dude sucks. He's the
biggest didn't actually punch him, I'm saying, like what during
to box him out and made him go the long way.

Speaker 6 (01:14:36):
It made him smoke. That sounds bad.

Speaker 4 (01:14:40):
He uh literally shoved this dude into a into one
of those flagpoles. It's the best best thing ever.

Speaker 7 (01:14:46):
Over so people know about him everywhere.

Speaker 6 (01:14:48):
Everybody they hate him.

Speaker 5 (01:14:49):
This dude sucks, I've heard, I mean, so I'll tell
you one thing he's doing getting all these ballparks. God
bless him. I like that about him. Yeah, but what
a good gig? So what does he just go ballparks
and you know, and.

Speaker 4 (01:15:04):

Speaker 7 (01:22:13):
Yeah, it's the same thing here.

Speaker 5 (01:22:14):
It lasts a while, it takes a little in it's
I think it's worth every every penny if you're talking
about the smell good without having to put a lot on.
I don't want to pop out of the elevator and
smell you fourteen minutes before you come out of.

Speaker 6 (01:22:25):
The elevator, right, No, It's like it's like when you're
going and buying new poles.

Speaker 13 (01:22:28):
Man.

Speaker 6 (01:22:28):
You know, you go to the cigar shop and you're like,
hey man, what's your best hole in here?

Speaker 7 (01:22:31):
Yeah? Yeah, what what's the best pole you can smoke it?

Speaker 5 (01:22:34):
Yeah, that's the way I go to a cigar shop
and ask, hey, man, do me a favor, what's the
best poll you got in here?

Speaker 2 (01:22:40):
I can I say it loud too, so all the
guys can hear loud and proud.

Speaker 8 (01:24:23):
Okay, let's do this.

Speaker 2 (01:24:25):
Sewn Salisbury.

Speaker 9 (01:24:28):
There to usc.

Speaker 3 (01:24:29):
Trus, longtime friend Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 2 (01:24:31):
Ryan Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 4 (01:24:39):
They won twenty eight to ten c J. Stroud and
the first team offense c J. Stroud was seven to ten,
eighty eight yards, no touchdowns or interceptions. Case Keenum came
in with seven to thirteen. Tim Boyle ten to fifteen.
So that's the quarterback play. Cam Akers looked pretty good

(01:24:59):
once again on the ground. Six carries twenty nine yards.
It's an average of almost five yards a carry. John
Metchi six receptions, sixty eight yards, one touchdown.

Speaker 9 (01:25:10):
There we go.

Speaker 5 (01:25:11):
That looked like a guy who belongs leading up to
that point hadn't been featured, hadn't separated himself, and that
may you saw a little more of what Mechi's capabilities are.

Speaker 7 (01:25:23):
And that was good to see.

Speaker 5 (01:25:25):
It really was. If that's a sign of well we're
gonna get out of John Metchi. Then now he can
start to elevate his play from that from here on
and healthy now and get it going. And it looked
like the guy was comfortable and that's a weapon. Then
that's why you drafted him like you did, and hopefully

(01:25:47):
that'll continue.

Speaker 4 (01:25:48):
The Texans forced five turnovers five and that wasn't just
with the number ones. It's all up and down the
entire game.

Speaker 5 (01:26:00):
Why because he's teaching them to fly around And I'm
telling you right now, he was evaluating the guys after
the first group, then he just as much as he
was the first group. That's what good coaches. They keep
coaching them up and coaching them up, coaching them up.
Matter of fact, sometimes you probably get more satisfaction out
of watching your backups come in and do their gig
as opposed to guys that you expect to do it

(01:26:20):
on a regular basis because they've been in the league
a while or they're a high draft pick, what have you.
So you get a lot of satisfaction in those games
out of watching, and it also gives you confidence in knowing, Okay,
there's more trust. We're building depth and guys are starting
to buy in from last year to this year even
more that here's what we're trying to accomplish here. We're
trying to strip and fumble and turn you over. Any

(01:26:41):
ball that's tipped in the air, we go get and
we're trying to make it so stressful on you that
you're forcing balls out early because we're pressuring you that
we're tackling you, but also tackling the football. Wrapping up
and swarming to the football. That's where you get a
lot of extra stuff. When you're standing around gawking doesn't
get you much. We're flying to the football. And the

(01:27:02):
thing I noticed from last year to this year and
will continue to you don't see it as much in
the preseason starters because people are a little cognizant of
what's going on. But they're flying around and He's got
guys out there. Not at the expense of losing. They're
trying to win games. Man, even the precis I told you,
I believe it. It's contagious. Now, does that mean you
go four and zero in the preseason with this extra

(01:27:23):
game or three and oh, that you're assured of going
on and being a good team in the fall, Not
at all, but if you're going to play them, you
want to win them. I mean, who doesn't, even if
there's a third guy at a position. So I think
one of the great differences are one of the great
elevations you'll see again this year is the aggressiveness and

(01:27:44):
flying around that Demiko Ryan's teams play with, and especially
on the defensive side, because I believe, I know the
offense will move the football. I know they're going to
move the football. You're just going to run into such
a quarterback gauntlet in the AFC and in football that
you expect your quarterback to play well. But it's going

(01:28:05):
to be a couple, just a couple stops in a
game d of the first half, coming out of the
third quarter, a couple stops three and outs in the
fourth quarter, it'll be the difference and where they're going
this year. And I think their football defense flying around
and Johnny on the spot, I think is going to
make a world of difference for them. And you know
what else that I'm sure Demiko's teaching because we had

(01:28:26):
that when Tony Dungee was there in Minnesota and Monty
Kiffin and even after that, whenever we had defensive guys,
it was fly around and go score. Yeah, I mean,
go score touchdowns. And I would imagine you're going to
see a handful of defensive touchdowns from this team this
week because when you fly around, good things happen when

(01:28:47):
the balls in the air.

Speaker 4 (01:28:47):
On the ground, defense forced three fumbles and had two picks.
Jalen Peatrie had himself a pick six about five yards away,
backed up down by the goal line, yep. And then
Derek Stingley Junior had a just a ridiculous, just a
really really good play, uh to intercept a ball.

Speaker 2 (01:29:06):
And I mean just it was.

Speaker 4 (01:29:10):
The defense, like you said, flew around all over the
place on Saturday, and you know, Stingley Junior has had
an outstanding camp, looked really good in his time, and
I mean it's it's uh. I just can't wait to
watch Daniel Hunter will Anderson Junior be on the field
at the same time. Obviously, Petri and Stingley both looking

(01:29:31):
to elevate their game. And then you got guys like
Ausi's al Shiyere, that's gonna that's gonna play well. I
mean just defenses on paper is really damn good.

Speaker 5 (01:29:40):
iFeel like him not now wait till you see sixty
five plays of that group healthy and flying around sixty
five plays a week on defense, that he's gonna.

Speaker 7 (01:29:49):
Be a blast to watch.

Speaker 6 (01:29:50):
Yeah, it's gonna be.

Speaker 11 (01:29:51):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:29:51):
I think I think their team is good enough play
like you did last year. They're good enough to be
in in in division hunt elevate this defense and continue
to band with the offense. And now you're talking about well,
I don't think hype's a big thing, but I think
most people that watch the Texans play trust the key

(01:30:12):
positions that they see, the head coach, the quarterback, the
edge rushers, and the pressure they're going to put on people,
their ability to tackle, adding an upgrade in the backfield
in a run game. So you've done everything. I think
they had one of the best offseasons in the NFL.
I do, and if what we think is validated come

(01:30:33):
fall time, the Houston Texans are going to be hell
to deal with for opposing teams and a blast to
watch because you'll see him fly around on defense and create.
But you're also going to see some stuff that you
haven't even seen yet offensively because of the added production
they've brought in in the offseason.

Speaker 4 (01:30:53):
Let's hear from head coach Demiko Ryans. He spoke about
the game on Saturday. What did he say, Well, you're
at and discussed next right here on sportslock seven eighty Hey.

Speaker 5 (01:31:02):
Men's Tclinicmen's Teaclinic dot Com. Fellows, I'm gonna put it

Don't We all go through on just not feeling it.
But if it's chronic for some of you, like man,
it's like a week, two weeks, a month, this whole

(01:31:24):
twenty twenty four. Is it what's going on at work?

Speaker 7 (01:31:26):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:31:27):
Maybe your attitude change there will help. But is it
what's going on in the sheets with mama?

dot com or ninety seven to two go Men's Tea.

Speaker 7 (01:32:33):
Let them know Sean sent you there.

Speaker 2 (01:32:37):
The Jean Salsbury Show continues.

Speaker 4 (01:32:40):
In that preseason action, the defense forced five turnovers to
Miko Ryans spoke about that defense after that win.

Speaker 6 (01:32:47):
This is what head coach Ryan's had to say at defensively.

Speaker 19 (01:32:51):
One thing, we harp on his attack in the football
and for us to go out today and take the
ball away five times, that's big time. Anytime you can
do that, like, I mean, you're gonna you're gonna win
the football game. So it was exciting to see you know,
Petrie and Stanley, I mean, Max Touley, who else we had, Neville,

(01:33:11):
Solomon Bird Like, it was exciting to see so many
different guys attack the football in different fascs, whether it's
intercepting the football right shripsack or just taking the ball
away from the from the back there. It's just that's
so we we talk about it so much and actually
see it come to life like it's uh, it's confirmation
for us and our our coaching points and what we

(01:33:33):
ask guys to do.

Speaker 8 (01:33:34):
It's just fun for me.

Speaker 19 (01:33:36):
I just love seeing the reactions from everyone on the
sideline going crazy when we take the football away.

Speaker 4 (01:33:42):
That's said Coach Ryan's talking about the defenses. It's just
kind of like what you said, Sean, the way that's
he's teaching and really you know, getting this group to
fly around and to buy in.

Speaker 6 (01:33:53):
I mean it's showing you.

Speaker 4 (01:33:54):
And I know it's preseason, right, but still these are
ones that played well, your twos, your threes, Guys that
are trying to make the roster, or guys that are
trying to put tape out together, tape tape together for
if they get cut and try to get pick up
on another team.

Speaker 5 (01:34:06):
Yeah, don't get don't get called lolligagon or jogging on
a play. You should be sprinting if you want to
dub somewhere else and get cut here. I mean my
point and I'll tell you what. What you want to
do is make it so difficult on the coach to
cut you than when he does, there's people standing in line. Yeah,
and that's a good sign for a team that they've
created so much competition and depth that at the end

(01:34:26):
and when you cut down, you're gonna be like, you
want three or four bodies to be able to saye gosh, dang,
do we got to get rid of these guys? Wish
we had five more spots. I'm gonna tell you what
not very few people in football talk about and needs
to be talked about more. We talk about physicality, flying
around and you know, getting after it and going where

(01:34:46):
you're aggressive, which they will be. There's a difference between
being aggressive with get after it, but out of control
aggressiveness that I can use against you as an offensive guy.
If you're going to play that way, you've got to
be And it's a slippery slope when you're telling a
guy like in golf or in football you are a
hitting use your lorri, dude, you gotta fire. You've got
to be explosive with.

Speaker 7 (01:35:06):
The lower hapen.

Speaker 5 (01:35:07):
I need everything else to look quiet and bored. Yeah,
it's the same thing when you run around. You got
to be fly around to the football, but you got
to be judicious enough when you're taking that shot or
when you're breaking down making a four yard tackle to
make him punt right. The hero centerm exists on defense too,
but well, we don't talk about enough around nationally rarely
when the team's playing really good scrambling around. I'm talking

(01:35:29):
about defense and flying around the football. It applies to
offense too, but the offense has to be more. You
can fly around and miss an assignment on defense and
run into a great tackle and hit it's happened or
the defensive time. I'm not saying it's not important, but
I can double team the DT and get him out
of the A gap and then the linebacker can clean
up for him. So we never talk about the double team.

Speaker 2 (01:35:50):
He did his job.

Speaker 5 (01:35:50):
He drew a double team right, or he get blocked
out of the hole. But the MIC is there to
fill it and get it and he's able to react
quickly and smartly. And I'm going to tell you why
we don't talk talk about it enough. Let me ask
you this through study. You're a hitter yep, or you're
a pitcher, or you're preparing for the SAT. Would you
walk into the SAT and fly around and be confident

(01:36:11):
as hell? If you'd never opened a book to prepare
for the PSAT?

Speaker 2 (01:36:15):
Would would you?

Speaker 13 (01:36:15):
All?

Speaker 5 (01:36:16):
Right, you're at the plate. You've never seen a pitcher.
He throws a ninety two mile an hour slide piece,
he's got a wicked splitter and he can pump ninety
eight if you've never studied him, how you feel and
going to the battle house?

Speaker 7 (01:36:27):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (01:36:29):
The reason why, and I'm going to tell you do
not discount this smart football teams. Why you saw Belichick's
team win all the time they drafted smart players. I'm
not saying guys are dumb if they don't have you know,
they didn't get a four point oh gpm talking about
football IQ and common sense on a football field. Demiko
Ryan's ability to teach smarts and to teach them to
be in the right spot, which is half the battle.

(01:36:50):
The reason you can fly around and when you're free
swinging or when I'm.

Speaker 7 (01:36:52):
Throwing the ball.

Speaker 5 (01:36:53):
You know what, when I know what's going on, we
all we do everything faster, everything quicker.

Speaker 7 (01:36:58):
And I didn't say hurried. I just said faster and
more aggressive.

Speaker 5 (01:37:01):
And the reason why they're going to be able to
fly around is because he's teaching them in the classroom
to be able to take it from there, learn it
and go apply at full speed, not three quarter speed.
Because you tell me this, when you're at your worst,
you feel mentally ill prepared, which makes you hesitant at
the plate, or hesitant as a quarterback, or hesidan as
a tackler. So what do you do. You're out of
position a little bit and against these pros. Okay, put

(01:37:23):
yourself just we're watching highlights of Caleb Williams. Yeah, you
drop back, you drop back in coverage. Caleb Williams scrambles
and you're not sure where you're supposed to be in
coverage or what your assignment is. You got no chance
to getting him in the open field if you're trying
to cover Kelsey and you don't know your assignment. But
when you do know it, tell me you don't fly

(01:37:43):
around faster and more efficiently. Yeah, so look at watch them.
You're going to hear all the physical talk. I'm going
to tell you what's going to be the difference is
their ability to get lined upright and be in the
right spot because mentally and the teaching in the classroom
has taught them to fly around one thousand miles an hour.
Some guys will fly around aimlessly and don't know what
they're hitting and they're.

Speaker 7 (01:38:03):
Out of position. I'll kill those.

Speaker 5 (01:38:05):
The guy who chases down every toss sweep fake because
he's so aggressive, Oh dude, we got him. You're overly aggressive.
I'm just going to misdirect you and you're out of
the play. So to be able to teach it, and
we don't talk enough about how offensively we do because
it seems we were thinking the quarterback and it's more
cerebral well, the middle linebacker is a pretty cerebral guy
on defense, right, You've got to be able to get

(01:38:26):
people lined up or the safety and call defenses and
the rest of it. But when all eleven are on
the same page, then you can swing the bat freely.
You can hit a golf. Listen, if you go to
a hole and you got this mental block, I can't
I've hit in the water three times here, and that's
what You walk to the tea box and you haven't prepared,
you haven't work shots on there and beat and you're
trying to hit a draw with the right to left

(01:38:46):
wind and the water's on the left and it goes
to the water. Well, you haven't a golf. I queued
your way through course management. Same thing here. Course management
allows you on the football field to be more aggressive
than other teams. And when you got good football players
that are aggressive and smart, you end up with one
of the top five defenses in the league.

Speaker 6 (01:39:05):
That'll be a difference this year for them. You think
they'll be top five, I do top ten.

Speaker 5 (01:39:09):
Now, Listen, I think I'm trying to be guarded against
being overhyped. For all top five defense quarterback is going
to be the MVP. It all sounds good, but we
also got it. It's a tough schedule. If they win
nine games, it may be a more impressive season this
year than last year.

Speaker 2 (01:39:22):
Maybe.

Speaker 5 (01:39:24):
I think they have the ability. If they're healthy. You
got to be a little lucky help wise as well
as you know, if they're healthy. When I think about
they got more stout inside, They've got edge rushers that
are disruptors. They're really good in the back end, they're deeper,
linebackers fly around. Yeah, if they are healthy, I would
expect them to be top three, top four AFC team,

(01:39:45):
and a top five defense. The problem is, like I said,
you can play really good defense and the dudes you're
going to be facing a quarterback statistically are still good.
The whole key to me is force turnovers, score on defense,
and keep people out of the end zone. Force them
to kick field goals. I don't care if you give
up five hundred yards a game. I know, eagle wise
you don't want to. But if you're giving up five
hundred yards and six points and you're scoring one yourself,

(01:40:07):
I'll take that.

Speaker 4 (01:40:08):
You know, you talk about the quarterbacks that they're gonna face,
you've got Josh Allen, Jordan Love, Aaron Rodgers, Jared Goff,
Dak Prescott to a tongue of I looa, Patrick Mahomes,
and Lamar Jackson all on the schedule.

Speaker 9 (01:40:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:40:23):
Now, put all their contract money together and figure out
what they're making, and then you know what comes out
of that. You've got rings, you got MVPs, you've got
Pro Bowls, you've got playoff appearances, and you've got guys
that are the toos of the world that can throw
for five thousand yards and are making fifty three million.
And of all those guys you just named, he may

(01:40:43):
be eighth on the list. Yeah, and that dude, if
you blink, if we've seen it, they'll go for seven
hundred total yards on your ass if you decide. Because
they're so fast team speedwise. Point is is that's the
gauntle you're face and you could actually have a much
better season. But statistically it could say, well, you're giving
up two hundred and sixty pass yards a game, Why fine,
but I'll give you two sixty.

Speaker 7 (01:41:03):
If you say they're only.

Speaker 5 (01:41:04):
Scoring nine points a game, twelve points a game, then
I'll tell you that this defense is where it needs
to belong. Statistics can be very misleading. The one statistic
that's not keeping people out of the end zone, it's
scoring yourself. On defense, I think you're going to be
a matter of fact, I think you come out you
remember how you talked about the offense coming out of
this year. Uh huh, see jaying what they got going on.

(01:41:25):
I think you're going to have similar feelings about the
defense next year.

Speaker 4 (01:41:28):
Coming out of this season, I feel like to me,
I feel like if they stay healthy and they'll have
a in at least the top five, defense could be
top three if they if they stay healthy.

Speaker 5 (01:41:40):
If the Neil Hunter plays seventeen games this year, yeah
he'll be on the defensive Player of the Year talk. Oh,
they are going to put him in position to dominate
and be successful. But remember forty nine ers defenses and
all the things they do. What do we know about
that both sides is they get a whole bunch of
people contributing on both sides of the ball, which has
kept them sustaining good football. There even sense Tomiko left,

(01:42:01):
but you teach it well and players get buy in.
The smart part will keep you ahead of the physical part.
Every day of the week.

Speaker 4 (01:42:07):
I know we're about to welcome in ASTROS broadcaster Steve
Sparks of the show at eight thirty. But one thing
that we're gonna have to talk about this morning with
with EA Houston Texans, and we'll get back back into
the Texans discussion at nine o'clock.

Speaker 5 (01:42:17):
But the running backs for the Texans, Damian Pierce. I
don't think he's gonna make the time. I don't think
he is unless they know something we don't, because just
production alone, it doesn't feel like he's grasping what they're
trying to get accomplished.

Speaker 2 (01:42:30):
Yeah, run game.

Speaker 5 (01:42:30):
That doesn't mean he's not gonna go play somewhere else
really good. Like I said, he's got a skill set.
It feels like this system and him are a water
and oil mix.

Speaker 6 (01:42:38):
Yeah, it just seems like he can't figure the scheme out.

Speaker 5 (01:42:41):
And that may be, and you know what, it may
be just simply that and sometimes going to a quarter
bit happens the quarterbacks have and all of a sudden
you go to that fit and it's like his fit
was what you saw.

Speaker 2 (01:42:53):
Two years ago.

Speaker 6 (01:42:54):
Yeah, North and South put your foot in the ground
one time ago.

Speaker 5 (01:42:58):
Not footing the ground hesitate, hesitate way weight cutback, and
it just it's it's tough. Somebody would grab him because
he's a good fotball player, but his production here seems
to be off right when it comes to the urgency
to get to the hole, but also the urgency to
stay patient. Does that make sense or just when you
think slow your role, brother, we're gonna push that guy by,

(01:43:19):
you're gonna cut back in your fifteen yard games is
gonna be instead of your three yard game?

Speaker 7 (01:43:23):
It's like a slow roll.

Speaker 4 (01:43:24):
It's like when you see running backs that before they
make their cut, it's almost like they're just kind of
jogging in place to try to identify which gap to attack.

Speaker 5 (01:43:30):
And sometimes that's a patient runner and then he sees
it and hits it, and then then you can give
that north and south mentality. I'll tell you another thing too,
is that is that sometimes you'll watch backs and win
this that they'll run into their own players back at times. Yeah,
because there's my point, because you're like, sometimes you wonder
if they're running with their eyes open. They just don't
quite understand the patients it takes. It's like a hitter

(01:43:52):
swinging at two oak too sliders that are foot off
the plate, they just can't. They can't stop it here.
He just it seems like he's having trouble getting to
that next level. And when you got the depth of backs,
now it's getting that work to get it, you need
twenty twenty five and they're not going to do that.

Speaker 6 (01:44:09):
You're not gonna get that.

Speaker 7 (01:44:09):
It's incoming upon him to do extra and right now.
Sometimes you just can't teach it. You're either a patient
runner or not.

Speaker 4 (01:44:14):
Let's get to break because we got astros broadcaster or
Steve Sparks joining the show next.

Speaker 6 (01:44:17):
That's Sports Tuk sevent to eighty.

Speaker 5 (01:44:19):
We're the Sewn Salisbury Show, continued every Monday at eight thirty. Steve,
welcome in. Good to have you. Uh Verlanders looks like
he's set to start Wednesday. What do you think we
should expect from him, Steve? Like pitches wives or is
it business as usual for him? Any any kind of
pitch count you think he'll be on?

Speaker 11 (01:44:42):
I think early the first game if he does pitch Wednesday,
maybe seventy five eighty pitches.

Speaker 8 (01:44:47):
Somewhere around there.

Speaker 11 (01:44:47):
Okay, they would give him an incremental jump from what
he did in his last start with Corpus Christie. So
I think he was fifty seven pitches four innings in
that game. So you just get incrementally a little bit better,
maybe five innings. I think you'd be real happy with that,
especially you go to six man right now, everybody gets
extra rest.

Speaker 5 (01:45:06):
No question about it, Steve, And I don't want to
put you on the spot here, but because but you're
you're so intrigued with the pitching and you we've for years,
we've been talking about it now on here and how
important it is not only here but the back end
of the bullpen. They seem, you know, haters going strong.
We we obviously know this, the young pitchers on here
with Hunter Brown's doing, even Arraghetty who struggled in his start,

(01:45:28):
but we know he's got the potential because we've seen it.
But this staff, and like right now, if the playoffs
start tomorrow, which they don't, how do you decide the
way Kakuchi's coming here and pitch you'll go tonight? How
would you decide the top three or four guys right now?
Because with Verland healthy, you think, well, of course he's
got to be in. Who gets left out of this
group and goes to the bullpen? The way they're pitching.

Speaker 8 (01:45:51):
Why are you putting me on the spot.

Speaker 5 (01:45:53):
Because you, you know what, because you're a you're a
magician and finding a way to give me an answer
without about hurting anybody's feelings. You're you're brilliant, ends fair,
but you're always fair and transparent and honest.

Speaker 2 (01:46:06):
So that's why. And you're smarter than well.

Speaker 11 (01:46:10):
I think these things always seem to sort themselves out,
you know, and there's still plenty of to go.

Speaker 8 (01:46:14):
But you know, you look at the first two. I
think you feel really good about Hunter Brown and Fromber
pitching in the playoffs. They've been the best two pitches
two and a half months and.

Speaker 11 (01:46:25):
In the American League, yes, no doubt both are both
are ten and two since June first. Nobody even has
nine wins in that span. So Astros are ten and zero.
And Frommer's last he starts and go on and on
about what Hunter's done. He has the best r in
the last two and a half months in baseball. So
that's your one and two, you know, and you figure

(01:46:47):
the other things out a little bit later on, And
a lot of that probably has to do with skill set.

Speaker 8 (01:46:54):
Who's done it?

Speaker 11 (01:46:55):
Match picked out of the bull bog pitched out of
the bullpen in the past, so he knows what that
might be. So innings pitched, you know, we'll get to
that point. We might say, hey, somebody needs to sit down.
This is enough, and you've done a great job. So
maybe the first series we'll let you take a little
breather here, but we'll go from there.

Speaker 8 (01:47:15):
So I don't know.

Speaker 11 (01:47:15):
There a lot of those things get sorted out matchups
you just mentioned it is a great one too, so
they've got great options now, and I love being able
to go to a six man.

Speaker 8 (01:47:25):
Very encouraged about Blanco's last.

Speaker 11 (01:47:27):
Start in Tampa, where he gave up just two Little
Measley singles and six innings of shutout baseball where it
looked like he was tailing off a little bit, where
it looked like his hand speed and velocity was at
tick down. But it looked very encouraging that last game
in Tampa. So maybe the second win there. I've told
I've told other people about this.

Speaker 8 (01:47:47):
There's a real.

Speaker 11 (01:47:50):
Thing that's gone on for one hundred years in baseball.
You get to one hundred to one hundred and twenty innings, right,
you get through a dead period, and your arm can
like your wonder. If you're hurt almost where there's just
no life in your arm, then it just reappears again.
And hopefully that's where Blanco is on the other.

Speaker 8 (01:48:06):
Side of that.

Speaker 5 (01:48:08):
Steve Sparks Astro's broadcaster each week at eight thirty on
a Monday. Grateful to have him on. Steve, I'm fascinated
by this. We've talked all the other crazy things that
have happened this season, but with Erkeidi, Garcia, McCullers, France Verlander,
a Hobvier, all those names that we are talking about.
This team that they're starting, pitching is a strength and

(01:48:32):
all those guys are out to me, Steve, the depth
and the way they're teaching it is it just as
simple as Hunter Brown throwing a two seamer that you'd
say he's got to challenge the inside of the plate.
I mean, you start to think of the timeline of
how these things have gone. It's been a remarkable pitching
season for these guys, considering all they've been through.

Speaker 11 (01:48:54):
Okay, so you understand what kind of transpired with Hunter, right,
And it was first it was Bregmann suggesting, hey man,
you need something that goes the other way.

Speaker 8 (01:49:04):
So they can't lean out and tattoo every one.

Speaker 11 (01:49:06):
Of your mistakes exactly the other. I don't know if
you know this, but Hunter told me this. He said
that Verlander a few months ago said, hey, give me
your two best games from Triple A a couple of
years ago. Let me see your mechanics and what you
might have been doing.

Speaker 9 (01:49:23):
So he did.

Speaker 8 (01:49:24):
He looked at him, and he saw a couple.

Speaker 11 (01:49:26):
Of discrepancies in his mechanics and said, listen, you're doing this.
You're doing this one of them, and you can see
this clear as day from the centerfield camera.

Speaker 8 (01:49:35):
He throws across his body. Now, that's what he was
doing his last year in Triple A was sugar Land.

Speaker 11 (01:49:40):
He'll step toward the right handed batter, throw across his body,
which was just natural.

Speaker 8 (01:49:44):
That was the way he came through the miners. That's
why he pissed in college. That's just natural. So he
stays closed a little bit longer that Juice Seemer has
more run because of the way he lets go of
the ball.

Speaker 11 (01:49:54):
You also retain a little bit more power staying closed longer.

Speaker 8 (01:49:58):
And Waila, he's explosive position.

Speaker 5 (01:50:01):
Right, Steve, you're in You're an explosive position a lot longer.

Speaker 8 (01:50:04):
No question.

Speaker 11 (01:50:05):
So there's power there, there's there's you know, the ritis,
I feel sorry for me.

Speaker 8 (01:50:11):
He's going to break your bat or he's going to
make you look stupid.

Speaker 9 (01:50:15):
There you go.

Speaker 8 (01:50:16):
Bregman and Berlander pissed him because of what they feel
and see and Hunter Brown and just knowing that.

Speaker 11 (01:50:25):
He's going to be a big part of what the
astros are going to be able to do, and they
made sure that he was going to get back on track.

Speaker 8 (01:50:30):
And I think that says a lot about but it
says a lot about Bregman and Berlin.

Speaker 7 (01:50:35):
No doubt.

Speaker 5 (01:50:35):
It's one thing for the veterans to reach out and say,
let's give you some help, and kg veterans that have
been doing this long enough to see a million and
can spot things that then that even experts can't spot.
And then you get the guy, the pupil who's willing
not to have too big an ego and to learn,
because you know, Steve, that's hard to do when you're
on teammates saying dude, i'll fix it, I'll fix it,
but you're saying I'll fix this alone. And for him

(01:50:57):
to say, you know what, Bam, you had to let
it to just kind of in one year out the other,
or to get you know, defensive over it.

Speaker 7 (01:51:04):
Right.

Speaker 8 (01:51:04):
I got this, Well, it's it's easy to learn when
when you got attend the e r.

Speaker 7 (01:51:09):
A yes, no doubt, you let guys go.

Speaker 11 (01:51:12):
Uh, and then they come to you for help. But
they went to him, they saw and I thought this.
I thought Hunter was on the verge of getting sent
down at one point, right, But man, he's been one
of the best pitchers in baseball for a good period
of time now, and you get really excited about his future.

Speaker 8 (01:51:31):
And uh, I think they're in good hands. Man, they
got They've got some guy. Kokuchi is a swing.

Speaker 11 (01:51:36):
And miss I love it, Yes, that he can go
out there and be a tough matchup on anybody, very
stingy with hits, big time on strikeout. I think twenty
four strikeouts in a little over sixteen innings. So I
think that the way they've got it set up. Now,
you look at the lineup hard, uh, just about every
game you feel good about who's pitching for the for
the Astors. Now you sloped Verlander in there, and and

(01:52:00):
what I've seen, you know, the last couple of games
that his rehab starts.

Speaker 8 (01:52:03):
It looks livelier than it did earlier in the season.

Speaker 11 (01:52:07):
I see more acceleration on release point and that's when
you get that explosive forceam up above the belt, and
I think it looks good for him.

Speaker 5 (01:52:15):
Yeah, Steve a lot of focus on pitching on this
segment because and I love it, and you see it
from a different vantage point than the rest of us.
And back to fromber I said today, Steve hasn't he
thrust himself back into the cy Young talk? And just
the inconsistency that he's leveled out and going out there
and giving you tons of innings and getting swing and
missing strikeout, always keeping the ball down, limited his walks.

(01:52:38):
I don't know the toughness, the mental toughness, or if
just sometimes, Steve, you've been on teams, don't pitching staffs
have I mean the competition, well, Hunter Browns ramped it up.
I got to ramp my game up. That's human nature
to me. You always want to ramp your game up.
The consistency, we know he's got great stuff. Where is
this domination come from that we know he has? But
it seems more consistent? Is it just as simple as

(01:53:00):
understanding that you've got to be the ace, and the
competition's part of it. What's been his change for consistency.

Speaker 8 (01:53:07):
I think it starts and starts with his curveball.

Speaker 11 (01:53:09):
I think his curveball's elite, wicked, fastball, bread and butter, yep.
But the curveball usage I think is part of it.
The sequencing in using that pitch, he's staying in the zone,
and the elimination of the slider. I think he threw
four sliders yesterday with slider cut or whatever you want
to call it.

Speaker 5 (01:53:27):
You thought that was too flat in the past, right, Steve,
You were concerned about it, correct.

Speaker 11 (01:53:32):
I think in a vacuum it's a decent pitch, but
I think it gets him out of the mechanics and
his curveball fair enough.

Speaker 8 (01:53:37):
That was my issue, right, So I do, I really do.

Speaker 11 (01:53:42):
I think it's a decent pitch, but I think he's
got the weapons with the two seam fastball, the curveball
and the change up just to wipe people out.

Speaker 8 (01:53:50):
And that's what he's doing more.

Speaker 5 (01:53:51):
Right now, do you think he's a cy young guy, Steve?
Do you think he's put himself to thrust himself into
that or are are we still a dominant four or
five or six starts away from talking about that down
the stretch.

Speaker 8 (01:54:03):
I think we're still a little way from that. Okhunter
Brown would be right up in the same thing.

Speaker 11 (01:54:07):
I mean, those two guys are first and third in
the era since they got on this role, so certainly
they're in the conversations, right, Yeah, so is he in
the conversation.

Speaker 9 (01:54:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:54:19):
The astros Zer and his last ten starts pretty good.

Speaker 5 (01:54:22):
Yeah, especially when they needed him, no doubt about it.
All right, Steve, let me finish up with this. Have
you ever been around so many odd injuries? Well, I
mean Tavier neck led to forever reason. You know, he's
now he's having surgery on his elbow, right, and then
we've had a deck and we're like, how does a
neck kink keep people out that I'm not saying for
whatever reason. I mean Tucker's bone bruis that were going

(01:54:45):
on three months, and now Bregman misses three games with
an elbow because he slept wrong. I mean, I've never
seen It's it's craziness how some of the things that
have happened to them this year, and yet four games
in front of first place after we had him left
for dead two months ago.

Speaker 11 (01:55:04):
So I know you played a very rough sport, and
I know baseball looks tame compared to that, and it is.
But the travel, falling asleep on the plane, right, sleeping
in a different bed all the time, all these things
add up. I mean, they've been doing this since the
middle of February, and they've been traveling almost every week

(01:55:25):
to go to these different cities and get in a
two thirty or three in the morning. And I'm not
saying that because anything other than it's hard to stay healthy, right.
You know, your body gets in weird positions. Everybody's posture
gets a little worse as we get older. I think
you've shrunk three inches since since we sat.

Speaker 7 (01:55:44):
Yeah, and I'm still trying.

Speaker 5 (01:55:46):
I'm still trying to knock down flagsticks and I don't
want my back to get in the way.

Speaker 8 (01:55:49):
Ste That's exactly right. But I'm just saying, man, it's
it's so hard to stay healthy in baseball. Throwing a
baseball in and of itself is unnatural. Your arm's not
supposed to go above your shoulder.

Speaker 11 (01:56:02):
That's why it's hanging down. So I don't know, it's
just hard and freaky injuries happened just in weird ways.

Speaker 8 (01:56:09):
Yeah, do something weird.

Speaker 11 (01:56:11):
You know, it's played at such a high speed and
you get into that act and then just covering first
base sometimes might tweet something weird and you're oblique.

Speaker 7 (01:56:20):
You know, you just never know.

Speaker 2 (01:56:22):
So, uh, that's all I have to say about that
is the.

Speaker 7 (01:56:25):
Injuries are weird.

Speaker 11 (01:56:26):
Yeah, no doubt times, but they're weird because it's a
long season.

Speaker 5 (01:56:30):
It's a grind man. Like you said, Steve, not every
bed is the same, not every plane flight. It's craziness.
But you're you're right. I just and the fact that
they've just stayed the course has been a tribute to them,
which you've talked about many times about their resilience and
their grind and their battle which has made them why
a year after your aside from talent, they continue to
be in a position to win a World Series.

Speaker 7 (01:56:50):
So, Steve, with that, do you do do you think?
I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:56:52):
Do we have any update on Bregman or is it
just the same as yesterday. It's kind of a day
to day till it gets back and he feels better.

Speaker 8 (01:56:58):
Think it's day to day.

Speaker 11 (01:57:00):
Have an option now, al Tuo Big got the DH
day yesterday. Bregman certainly has a chance to DHS in
this series. We'll have to see what is what feels
like to be able to throw. But I think he's
probably chumping at the bit not to lose what was
going on with his his swing and his back the
last month and a half.

Speaker 8 (01:57:19):
You know, I was thinking about this the other day too.

Speaker 11 (01:57:21):
Bregman's career era or a career batting average in August
is like three thirty seven, three thirty eight, something like that, ridiculous.

Speaker 8 (01:57:31):
Number compared to any of his other month. I don't think.
I don't think he's even two seventy in any of
the other months. And it just leads me to.

Speaker 11 (01:57:38):
Believe August is the hardest month in all of baseball.
They call it the dog day for a reason, and
I just think it speaks to his mental toughness that
he's better than any other month in the toughest months
of the season, that he can put the team on
his back.

Speaker 8 (01:57:55):
And he was man that last road trow Man. He
was unbelievable. But I was just thinking about the other day.

Speaker 11 (01:58:01):
I wanted to share that I just feel him being
able to do that in August had his best month
in his career. I'd like to look at maybe hall
of famers who had their best months in August.

Speaker 8 (01:58:12):
I think he'll listen.

Speaker 5 (01:58:13):
Well if that's the case. He's in that team picture
in August with that average Steve and his production, there's
a question. Yeah, yeah, you've said it over a thousand Yep,
you've said it on this show too. But that that well,
that's to me. It feels like listening to experts like
you talked that that's his best trait. He's talented, but
his mental toughness and his ability to grind on the
game is what sustains him in months like this when

(01:58:35):
other guys are flailing around trying to keep up because
they're tired. It's a great point by you, and a
lot of it becomes mental at this stage. Good stuff, man,
great series ahead and the next what fourteen games are
a lot of tests here in the next fourteen gonna
be fun competition and we look forward to next Monday's conversation.

Speaker 7 (01:58:52):
Brother enjoyed this Red Sox series, all right, Sean, Thanks
appreciate great stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:58:56):
Thanks. That's a great Steve Sparks always good to have
him on. Makes such a great point about ut the
insight from a Verlander and a Bregman to change a
guy who we all thought was either headed to Triple
A or was gonna be just a bullpen guy in
Hunter Brown. It's been fascinating run by Hunter and Fromber
and what they've done on this staff. Steve points it
out well, as he does every week. Gets Sports Talk
seven ninety coming right back.

Speaker 9 (01:59:18):
Let's go.

Speaker 2 (01:59:19):
This is this Sean Salisbury show.

Speaker 5 (01:59:22):
Let's say somebody, for a gift, gives him a chain.
It says like, but you can't, you can't give him
just one what what's the what's his nick navy? What
would it say on the chain right now?

Speaker 7 (01:59:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:59:32):
Two chains?

Speaker 5 (01:59:33):
Okay, But if you give him a third and he
wears it on stage, right then what happens? He becomes
three chains?

Speaker 13 (01:59:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:59:44):
I mean, and what if there's somebody decides let's do this,
I'm gonna give him a gift and we're gonna say
three chain, this is chain the third chain?

Speaker 7 (01:59:54):
Does he still go by two chains?

Speaker 2 (01:59:57):
I don't know?

Speaker 4 (02:00:00):
Just diving deep, yeah I would, I would think he
would stay with two chains, but it doesn't make sense
if he's wearing three of them exactly.

Speaker 5 (02:00:07):
So see how simple it is. But the versatility to
change your name if you want right, you can be versatile.

Speaker 6 (02:00:13):
What do you want to change your name too?

Speaker 7 (02:00:15):
I don't. I don't want to change my any name.

Speaker 16 (02:00:18):
They have no.

Speaker 7 (02:00:20):
Probably country boy with the K and boys with a Z.

Speaker 6 (02:00:24):
Do you want me to call you dragon? You can
call me nighthawk.

Speaker 7 (02:00:28):
Dragons?

Speaker 5 (02:00:29):
Is that where you're going with this? What's dragon at nighthawk?

Speaker 9 (02:00:31):
What is it is?

Speaker 6 (02:00:32):
From step brothers?

Speaker 13 (02:00:33):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (02:00:33):
Okay, there you go call me dragon. That's right, call
me nighthawk. That was to change two change talent. Yeah,
this was just a thought to cross my mind that
nobody seems to have an answer for that. If he
wore a third one? What would you call him?

Speaker 6 (02:00:45):
Do you know what his former rat name used to be?

Speaker 13 (02:00:47):
No?

Speaker 6 (02:00:49):
Tripley?

Speaker 9 (02:00:49):
Do you know? I do not?

Speaker 2 (02:00:51):
Really? Come on, man, neither of y'all know?

Speaker 7 (02:00:55):
No, I zero, I do know?

Speaker 8 (02:00:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:00:57):
Yeah, Why why are you googling it?

Speaker 7 (02:00:59):
And why not tell us?

Speaker 6 (02:01:00):
Because I can't actually say his I can't say is
it dirty?

Speaker 2 (02:01:05):
He's what?

Speaker 7 (02:01:06):
Is it dirty?

Speaker 2 (02:01:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (02:01:07):
It is?

Speaker 7 (02:01:12):
Oh no, you don't want to say that.

Speaker 6 (02:01:13):
I can't say that. No, uh something boy used to
be some.

Speaker 5 (02:01:19):
Yeah, upper body strength boy. Yeah, is that what you're
talking about with a different name.

Speaker 9 (02:01:23):
Correct.

Speaker 5 (02:01:24):
Yeah, I'll stick with two chains, you gotta you gotta
just stick with two chains, right, yeah, or three changs
if he gets a third one two chains, but I
got me a few on. It's part of his lyrics.
See a few is three or more, right, A couple
is two or less.

Speaker 4 (02:01:37):
Yeah, So he does say he does say in one
of his one of his songs that he says, names
two chains, but I got me a few on.

Speaker 7 (02:01:44):
There you go.

Speaker 5 (02:01:45):
But he's at least acknowledging that is the few is
is a little more than two. He also played college basketball. Nice,
he's like six seven. Let's get into the nine o'clock hour.

on watch it. I saw about eight plays. I was glued, man,
but then I go back, you go back on the childlight.
So I want to see a series of highlights. I
just I don't set my clock by preseason football, watch

(02:04:44):
a little bit of it, then go. But I'll go
back and look like when some you know, you see
some Saleman all the execution of a play, or I
also go back and watch just your simple four yard
run because I want to see how they lock that.
So I watch more highlights of a game than I
do the live game in preseason anything I need to see.

(02:05:04):
That's with the v you know, to tape it is,
you know, to be able to do that and go
back and look at certain things, but you don't learn
a lot because you're not game planning against any but
you're just doing it on your own. So things that
put this with all the good stuff that you see
on all these NFL teams, you can find out about
ten plays of good highlights from each one. So so
I go back and and I watched, like I said,

(02:05:26):
the eight plays or so of ten plays of Texans.
But I didn't watch a lot of preseasons. Well now,
I didn't watch a lot of preseason footballen I played
your disrespect for preseason football. I'm all for the guys
doing well and these young guys trying to make a
team or these veterans that are on the bubble and
playing good football. But I just I'm more baseball. I'm
still in baseball mode. When it comes to you're watching

(02:05:49):
watching full Yeah, well I'd rather watch a full Astros
game than.

Speaker 7 (02:05:54):
A preseason quarter three. That's just me.

Speaker 5 (02:05:56):
It's it's not that I don't care, it just doesn't
interest me. Once the rosters are set and we go,
then I'm in. But you will go look at highlights, say, okay,
why did this guy play so well? I want to
see whether it's here or somewhere else. I'll go look
sell man guarda Minshew won the job. Let's go back
and look at some of the things he's done this preseason.
Even though you haven't seen much veteran they trust him.
Same thing here. You just go through so ticking shoes

(02:06:18):
in the preseason, and I know what's coming down the
pike with the regular season. Gotta watch too much football,
to be honest with you. So because I'm just not
a preseason guy, I never have been. I don't think
I learned much about a football team in a preseason.

Speaker 2 (02:06:31):
College.

Speaker 7 (02:06:31):
Do you like certain things about it?

Speaker 4 (02:06:32):
College football starts a Saturday, YEP, So there's a couple
of games on speaking of the NFL and obviously the
Texans Damian Pierce against the Giants four carries five yards
one point three average, one run of his longest run
was one one run which was three yards.

Speaker 5 (02:06:52):
They're gonna be They're gonna be met with some decisions
here when it comes to you know, a final cutdown comes.

Speaker 4 (02:06:58):
And then you just kind of look at what cam
Akers has done. He's come in, seems like he's adapting
well to the scheme, he knows the scame and he
and he's just performing better.

Speaker 5 (02:07:07):
Yeah, you know, with McVeigh and the Rams, he's had
a head start on understanding what it takes. And if
it wasn't for injuries with Cam cam Akers wouldn't be here.
You know what I'm saying. In the past, I think
Cam Akers is a healthy back. He's he's number somebody's
number one back, playing like he was with the Rams
every day. But now he's he's you know, he's getting

(02:07:28):
that full health back and you can tell he has
a pretty decent feel for what they're trying to get
accomplished in this run game.

Speaker 4 (02:07:34):
Yeah, cam Akers six carries twenty nine yards for four
point eight yards per carry.

Speaker 6 (02:07:40):
He's just he's just different form better, Yes he has.

Speaker 4 (02:07:43):
I mean you think about it like when people when
the national media talks about the Texans, no one mentions
that they picked him up.

Speaker 2 (02:07:49):
Oh, they just there. Oh he focused on the mixing things.

Speaker 6 (02:07:52):
Yeah, I'm Joe mixing And how is Damian Pierce gonna do?

Speaker 4 (02:07:55):
Oh by the way, they have Cam Akers who's pushing
for that uh second running back role, which I think
he's gonna get.

Speaker 5 (02:08:01):
Well, Pierce isn't gonna see much of the field if
he doesn't pick this up because right now, to start
a game, let's say mixing didn't start a game, you'd
have to trust cam Akers a little more in this game. Yeah,
so that I can't help but keep rooting for Damian Pierson.
If it's not here, then he figures it out and
starts kicking ass like he did as a rookie here,
because man, you saw some flashes of brilliance. It was

(02:08:24):
one of their more consistent offensive football players that entire year,
and that was on a team one very good.

Speaker 7 (02:08:30):
But he ran the style that he likes to run
right now that it's a little different for him.

Speaker 4 (02:08:35):
When you watch the film and you watch plays like
from the aerial view of Damian Pierce, Like just a
couple of weeks ago, I remember watching some film on
him of like four of his carries that were off
to the right hand side. One of them was a
toss play and they toss it to him and all
you see it from an aerial view, and you see

(02:08:58):
obviously just like one cutback, wide open hole.

Speaker 7 (02:09:01):
That's what it's built. He tries to stretch, stretch, foot
in the ground, go.

Speaker 4 (02:09:04):
But he tries to follow a blocker who the blocker
just runs right into a different defender and then.

Speaker 7 (02:09:09):
Run into his back. Yeah, that's what this type of
run games to do. You stretch it. We start to
stretch it, start to push it.

Speaker 5 (02:09:17):
Then all of a sudden, the backside push shoves the
guy by the end comes up the field too far
and that cutback lanes there. These zone teams have made
a living doing that, but it takes the patience to
do it instead of oh my gosh, it's that built
in time clock too, like a quarterback standing in the
pockets like one thousand and one, one thousan two. Dude,
you don't have eight seconds. Got to get rid of
it and in this case, you want him to think

(02:09:38):
with a little more patients. Take one extra step, just
one extra stretch, and now put your foot in the
ground and get backside. And the best players I've ever
seen at doing this see the second hole before the
first holes open or closed. They start their stretch and
they've already seen because of movement and coverage, who's supposed
to fill the backside, who's supposed to fill the front side,

(02:10:02):
what the numbers game looks like to you, and going
into it. It's not one of those things where you
can also take your head backside immediately. You still got
to read the playof because sometimes it still happens front side.
So for him, it's just the inability to his vision
has been one hole, one hole, and go, and it's
been the first one is the patience of seeing, Okay,

(02:10:22):
we're trying to accomplish this. I got to stretch it
a little longer. Then the end's going to come up
the field. I can cut back. We've got it sealed off,
and now the fill guy. And especially if you know coverage,
if you've studied coverage, you understand who the fil guy
is backside and who you got to make miss right
so it just patience is a tough thing to teach
a running back who's used to one cut and go,

(02:10:43):
oh even without a cut, get downhill and let's go.
And you're running to daylight and hoping that you you know,
you're going full speed here it's a patient explosion, patient patient, patient,
hit the ground running. See Jis Shroud spoke about the
patients from cam Akers and what he's seen so far.

Speaker 6 (02:10:59):
This is what quarterback have to say.

Speaker 20 (02:11:01):
Oh, I mean he already kind of came nice, you know,
like that's just he's been playing at a high level
since I can remember Washington College, you know, so it's
nothing that he changed, and he's just you know, I
think he's a little more focused now and just you know,
knows what he needs to do to get on the team.
And then he's he's been working from there. So you know,
his foundational work I think has been great in this offense.

(02:11:23):
He's been in this type of style, so you know
he's going to continue to great. And you know, I'm
I'm really you know, loving his game and how patient
he is, but he hits the hole at the same time,
so you know, he's.

Speaker 8 (02:11:32):
A great back.

Speaker 7 (02:11:32):
Wow, it's just so CJ and I had a conversation.

Speaker 4 (02:11:35):
No, he literally just said, Sean McVay and what the
Rams do this scheme in this offensive mindset, if you will.

Speaker 5 (02:11:42):
And did you hear his last comment? He's patient but
then has the ability to put his foot and ground
and go. So that's the one thing patient, patient, patient. Now, Okay,
they stretched and stretched it that backside cuts not there,
stay front side, go give me three yards and let's
get the second down. Whatever it is.

Speaker 7 (02:11:59):
But don't kid yourself with this offense.

Speaker 5 (02:12:02):
Knowing it when he was with McVeigh and the Rams
and understanding what you're trying to get accomplished is a
huge advantage for a guy trying to make a team
who's had really good success in the league.

Speaker 7 (02:12:11):
If it's not for injuries.

Speaker 6 (02:12:12):
Yeah, let's let's look at the offensive line. CJ.

Speaker 4 (02:12:15):

Giants on Saturday. We'll discuss that next on sport Stock

You and I, Shawn and Bryan. I don't think Sean's
a basic white guy name. A lot of the brothers
have it. White guys have it, like Sean Sean Mexican comedy. Yeah,
but you don't want to be you know, you don't
want to be group dealing with Sean Puffin. No, but
the Shawn name I think is versatile. Okay, but what
about Brian. So it's just there's been a lot of

(02:21:00):
a lot of different dog, There's no doubt there's a
lot of there's a lot of different I mean, but
if you were gonna say, okay, more white guy, basic
white guy named, you don't fall under like you're you're not,

Yeah, so Brian, I mean there's I know, Brian's from
all different reasons, Sean, same way. So I think that
you're probably a little more basic white guy named than mine.

Speaker 6 (02:27:07):
Tripoli?

Speaker 9 (02:27:08):
Did he? Did?

Speaker 2 (02:27:08):
He rat out some people?

Speaker 6 (02:27:10):
That's what they keep alluding to.

Speaker 2 (02:27:11):
Damn Allegedly Gunn is a snitch.

Speaker 6 (02:27:14):
Not confirmed.

Speaker 5 (02:27:15):
North.

Speaker 6 (02:27:17):
I don't know Gunnar was a snitch.

Speaker 7 (02:27:19):
It's not calling him out.

Speaker 10 (02:27:20):
And but you know how the media run with headlines.
So mm yeah, Okay, it's not confirmed or denied by
the person that they claim it. He's snitching on gotcha, Okay,
but the media run with, you know, whatever narrative they Okay, so.

Speaker 4 (02:27:34):
Uh, our guy Nick Sean says, basic white guy. Name
is that guy from Magnolia Ryan? That's Ryan.

Speaker 5 (02:27:41):
The calls in, Oh yeah, uh he's basic why guy.
Ryan's kind of a basic way guy name. It's kind
of like Brian, Yeah, Ryan Howard, Ryan Lochtey. Okay, Yeah,
so there's there's a couple of different variations.

Speaker 17 (02:28:00):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (02:28:01):
Our guy, Billy Chamberlain. He says, I think I have
the most basic white guy named William Andrew. He said
I should be British Royalty.

Speaker 7 (02:28:08):
Oh my gosh. He is full on basic and.

Speaker 5 (02:28:13):
Billy Billy Billy Andy, Yeah, Billy Andy, Billy Drew.

Speaker 4 (02:28:18):
Uh and then Jeremy says, hey put some respect on
Cincinnati Red's pitcher Hunter Green. That's that might be one
of the most basic names I think I've ever heard
of my life. Hunter Green Leasy spells at g R
E E N E.

Speaker 5 (02:28:31):
Yeah, it's pretty basic. White guys, extremely white guy. Let's
let's talk a little Texans with the offensive line.

Speaker 9 (02:28:42):
C J.

Speaker 4 (02:28:42):
Stroud, quarterback, spoke about how the offensive line performed against
the Giants, and this is what c J.

Speaker 6 (02:28:48):
Stroud had to say.

Speaker 20 (02:28:49):
Yeah, they they did a really good job of just
you know, giving me time and I know that you know,
they got my back ticking pans, so you know, it's
just more than just balls, just a trust factor that
I have with those guys. And that's in great DLin
over there, Dext Lawrence and Brian Bryan's and Kavon all
Our great players, so you know, they had their hands full.

(02:29:11):
But I think we didn't give up any sacks today,
and and we only put our starters in the first quarter,
so you know, for our second guys going there and
do well too as a show as the work they've
been they've been putting in.

Speaker 4 (02:29:21):
So the starters and second string and just everybody all
game long did not give up one sack against the Giants.
The second string had to go against Dexter, Lawrence Cavon,
Thibodeau and Brian Burns, some of the best defenders for
the Giants in that preseason game, and they did well. Obviously,
Sean we saw last year how banged up this offensive

(02:29:43):
line became, and that's a good sign for these second
stringers to go up against the first teamers for the
Giants and do well and not give up any sacks.

Speaker 5 (02:29:50):
It's no doubt about it, no doubt about it. Be
a major key on the other side, just keeping your
quarterback up right. If you do, the ball will come
out on time and everybody will look good. So and
it'll be you know, as an offensive lineman too with
the run game effect and the fact that your quarterback
has a great clue on what you're doing getting the
ball out on time, that you just got to do

(02:30:12):
a little bit extra, and your offensive line will end
up being one of.

Speaker 6 (02:30:15):
The best in the league if they're healthy. Yeah, and
it's just like like I said, we saw it last year.

Speaker 4 (02:30:20):
There was I think at one point it was like
thirty different offensive line combinations for the Texans, and they
need to stay healthy for you know, keep CJ.

Speaker 6 (02:30:27):
Shroud upright.

Speaker 4 (02:30:28):
And you got to give credit last year they did
a pretty damn good job of doing that even with
all the different combinations. And now you've got you know,
hopefully you have Juice Scruggs taking another step. You've got
Kenyon Green hopefully taking another step. You still got Shack Mason,
you still have Laramie Tunsel and then the other guys,
and hopefully you can get you know, whatever you can
get from Titus Howard this year. I mean, he's got
to stay healthy. Dude can't ever stay healthy. So offensive

(02:30:52):
line is going to be key.

Speaker 16 (02:30:52):
We know that.

Speaker 6 (02:30:54):
But and again it's just preseason.

Speaker 4 (02:30:56):
But I mean, second stringer's going to Dexter Lawrence and
Caveon Thibodeau, those dudes are and Brian Burns, those ers
are pretty pretty damn good.

Speaker 7 (02:31:02):
Yeah, isn't it amazing?

Speaker 5 (02:31:05):
Just how when you get right down to it, all
the pretty fluff that goes on on teams, and the
you know, the receivers and quarterbacks and skilled position players
and your corners on defense, all the people who garner
a lot of attention when it really gets right down
to it, can you control the line of scrimmage on
offense and defense? In truth, if you got a bad

(02:31:27):
team and a really good quarterback, you'll probably get eliminated. Yeah,
if you got an when I say bad team, if
you've got an explosive offense but your defense can't get
off the field. You want me to go through a
couple of teams that have been through that the last
few years. Two years ago, both Minnesota and Detroit. What
was the different score? A lot couldn't stop. Anybody couldn't

(02:31:48):
play defense intact this.

Speaker 7 (02:31:49):
They went through it here too.

Speaker 5 (02:31:50):
They just didn't score much when you know when until
CJ got here, but where you just can't tackle anybody.
So really the court you look at, Mahomes didn't have
his weapons. Less you're played good football. It wasn't the
who won the MVP League. Lamar Jackson Jackson. But what
we've talked about, look what their defense did to make
it easier on him. And here to me give me

(02:32:12):
a If you get a quarterback who's a playmaker with
a decent defense, decent offense, you're going to be in
the hunt.

Speaker 7 (02:32:19):
But I can tell you this.

Speaker 5 (02:32:20):
You give me a quarterback with a great quarterback with
average personnel on offense, but offensive line and defensive front
seven that dominate, you'll be in it as opposed to
a finesse team with a good quarterback. Somehow, eventually you'll
get hit in the mouth too much and you won't
be able to last. So this team's physicality. But it

(02:32:40):
really gets right down to it when we're talking at
the end with their success or not. I don't think
it's going to come down to hey, did Dalton Schultz
catch some balls this year? Of course it will. But
the truth of the matter is the substance comes from
and the moo your team and the identity your team
comes from the big fellows.

Speaker 7 (02:32:58):
Man, It just does.

Speaker 5 (02:32:59):
I mean, I think history. To me, yeah, having mahomes
is different, but there we got a lot of cats
who are pretty different in this league playing the position
are damn good. But what happens all the good stuff
you can when you get controlled with the line of scrimmage?
Did not the Texans get controlled against Baltimore at the
line of scrimmage? Who won that game? Baltimore as good
as it is. And I didn't think our quarterback had

(02:33:20):
to take a back seat to Lamar in the game.

Speaker 9 (02:33:22):
Did you know?

Speaker 5 (02:33:22):
As good as Lamar has been? So look at the
Miami Dolphins. They score from the locker room. What's been
the knock on them? Push them around a little bit? So,
no question about it. So that'll be a big part
of their success this year if they achieve what they
want to achieve.

Speaker 4 (02:33:37):
Astros open up a series tonight against the Boston Red Sox.
You say Kakuchi is on the mound? Can he continue

Speaker 2 (02:35:07):
Let the celebration start, or Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven.

Speaker 6 (02:35:12):
Ninety No, guy, Larry and Stafford, what's happening to Larry?

Speaker 7 (02:35:17):
Larry?

Speaker 9 (02:35:18):
What's going on? Be Leema? Sean.

Speaker 13 (02:35:19):
Look, I don't have a cricket phone, man, but the
last couple of times I've been trying to get in
touch with you boys, this damn phone been acting up.

Speaker 9 (02:35:27):
So I ain't just pulled my answer to the biggest open.

Speaker 13 (02:35:30):
Field that I could find so that there would not
be any blockage of signal, so that I could chop
it up with you boys, mane, because it's a lot
of stuff I need to get at. So I'm gonna
make it, you know, try to make it as fans
as I can. On a couple of things, I'm real
excited to see Kokuchie tonight, Mabe because if he could
do what he's been doing and we getting burn in
the bank, and now that we have put them man

(02:35:52):
of the ass right in the mirror, rearview mirror.

Speaker 9 (02:35:54):
It might be at fun time. And I'm telling you,
I'm already.

Speaker 13 (02:35:58):
Apologized a couple of times for that Kakouchie blast I
sent out because I wasn't excited about him because his
numbers didn't add up to me, and I didn't think
that he was gonna turn out to be the way
that he's been. But I'll tell you what, if he
can be as solid as he's been these three games
and Verlander coming back, we got the making of another
run at this World Series, fella.

Speaker 9 (02:36:18):
So we gonna see what he do tonight. But I'm
putting my money on it.

Speaker 16 (02:36:21):
Man.

Speaker 13 (02:36:22):
Next thing, Son, you know, I respect to football, Ackerman,
and you and Blema May y'all talk a good sport
talk man when we talk about football, and you said
it today. If y'all asked, is sorry in the trenches?
Your ass ain't winning no football games.

Speaker 9 (02:36:39):
It's just that simple.

Speaker 13 (02:36:41):
So y'all old line and d line got to be stout, man.
And what I saw over there on Kirby Man on Saturday,
the tensions got the making of a real good football
team because that old line, even just with Lamy Toomson
not being in that old line, gave Tibbs and the
mother Boy and some problems. And the fact that we
he got some depth over there. Man, just allows me

(02:37:02):
to sleep well at night, because as long as my
trigger man ain't looking up at that old busted ass
ceiling on NRT with all them missing panels when he's
looking up at the ceiling off his back, long as
that don't happen, we got a legitimate shout. So when
we go to Indie, Man, I don't need to see
no more of my my first team starters in this
preseason stuff. Matter of fact, Kyl can go over there

(02:37:23):
and just flip Hamburgers at the last preseason tailgate or
our spring.

Speaker 9 (02:37:28):
Our training camp game or whatever, so that we don't
even have to risk no kind of injuries with my
boys over there.

Speaker 13 (02:37:35):
And for all you folks that been coming at me
and by my boyfriend Stafford Jalen Petrie, I already told
y'all man, Jalen Petrie has been a dog since he
was with them. Stafford Kobra's mate, and so you gonna
get to see him play football at a high level.
Because your back in and your fright end is playing together,
this team is gonna be damn near unstoppable. And the

(02:37:56):
way CJ got all them weapons, shun look here, every
des coming in the league, gonna have to make a
bad decision because CJ accuracy and everything else is gonna
light they silly ass up. I'm excited about it. Everything
that's going on over there on Kirby managed to have
everybody in this city fight up, and y'all might want
to get ready Specs and Roston afterhouse throws because of

(02:38:17):
your boy gonna be in there every Sunday just getting
all the looker he can find.

Speaker 1 (02:38:21):
In our holl.

Speaker 5 (02:38:24):
Little yak in there, my guy Larry. Two things, when
all is said and down at the season, you can say,
I assure you if you didn't watch anything else, if
you say, how did their offensive and line defensive line
hold up physically meaning healthy? And how did they perform?
And if your conversation starts there when the season's over.

(02:38:48):
Now with the quarterback, I know what I'm gonna get
out of him. If your season starts with the big
fellows on both sides of the ball, this will be
a phenomenal season. It'll be a good season. And with
all the other stuff, it'll be a phenomenal season. If
the start of your conversation at the end of this
year or as the season is going on. When people
refer to them, they refer to them as a dominant,

(02:39:10):
physically dominant football team. That's when you know you've made it,
because I know the finesse part of it. It's gonna
be fine. He's right, Petrie can fly around. They've got
back end help. And Larry made an interesting point that
not enough people talk about as well, how you tie
in fronts and coverages together. You can have the greatest
four defensive backs in the world. If you don't pressure them,

(02:39:31):
an average quarterback is going to complete footballs. And the
other is true if you can if you can pressure
the quarterback, you can have You don't have to have
a Hall of Fame defensive secondary to make them play better.
When that front seven's hitting a quarterback in his frigging
mouth on a regular basis, that's not fun. Had it happen,
And eventually you get hit in the mouth enough times,
you start doing stuff that you're not shouldn't should you

(02:39:53):
don't want to do. The ball comes out a little
too early or you hold it too late, and you're
a bad decision maker.

Speaker 7 (02:39:58):
So that's one.

Speaker 5 (02:40:00):
The physicality and I'm just going to tell you this
man that their bandwidth and their ability to throw the
football is is going to create a lot of anxiety.
And that's the running back in the backfield too. For offenses,
I'm not one ounce worried and defensive. When you talk
about coming in here and you've got to defend both

(02:40:21):
the physical part of their game and the finesse part.
Good luck with that and it will it'll keep you
awake at night. And this offense has one of those
offenses with all these weapons that can make you it's
going to create so many mismatch problems. If you don't
hit the quarterback and you're playing the Texans, you're gonna

(02:40:42):
it's gonna be a long day for you.

Speaker 7 (02:40:46):
I'm just telling you it is.

Speaker 5 (02:40:47):
Because they are throw first scramble, the scramble where they're
not built off off schedule stuff. They can make the
off schedule play the fact that they're built on schedule
and the big fellows will have a lot to do
with that, and it makes it miserable on pass rushers
when a quarterback gets through the ball. The physicality will
be there. Belcal this year though it has to be.
I already know they're going to score points. They're they're

(02:41:09):
they're they're going to score points. That's pretty easy to see. Also,
a little note to pass along.

Speaker 4 (02:41:15):
Starting this Saturday, there is a college football game on
every Saturday for the rest of the year.

Speaker 7 (02:41:20):
Yep, there's a bunch of them this Saturday.

Speaker 2 (02:41:22):
To kick in too. Drinking from the act dog well Conyac.

Speaker 5 (02:41:26):
You know, I'm gearing up the crib for ready, ready
to go. Man starts this week and we never look back.
And I'll be at that liquor store Friday before, so
Saturday and Sunday are already taken care of.

Speaker 6 (02:41:42):
Yeah, but he's right, a meal.

Speaker 2 (02:41:48):
I can't.

Speaker 5 (02:41:48):
I cannot wait to see the next level of this
because I tell you what. Keep a quarterback standing upright,
and good ones will destroy defenses. Keep a great one
standing up right. And you're playing late in January and
early February. Hi, praise yes, But they're building something. The foundation.
The big boys will control. The big boys will control
this season.

Speaker 4 (02:42:09):
You say, Kakushi on the mound for the Stros tonight,
how many strikeouts?

Speaker 7 (02:42:12):

Last time it pooped me tough. I'm going with eight
and they win the ball game. Sorry your bow sox,
all right?

Speaker 5 (02:42:23):
You know what, sometimes you just got to take the
l Yeah, I'm not going to take many, but I'll
understand it.
