Speaker 1 (00:02):
Saulsbury.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Okay, let's do this.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Sewn Salisbury to usc truth, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 4 (00:14):
Brian Lima, go Lobos. This is the Seawan Salisbury Show.

Speaker 5 (00:22):
Shawn Salisbury, Brian Lilima, Manuel Elmore. Rockets lose to the
Brooklyn Nets, Houston Cougar's take down Oklahoma State, and she's
closer to Super Bowl Sunday Chiefs and Eagles Sewn tripley.
Good morning, what's happening? Alex Bregman is still a free agent?

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Good morning? Let's go the morning. What's what's on your mind? Dog?

Speaker 5 (00:51):
What an awful, awful, awful collapse by the Rockets last night,
just absolutely embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's twice in a row from them. They've lost four
in a row. Well from the nets, Yeah, well, and
two of them are by the hands of the nets.

Speaker 5 (01:07):
They were up four sean with nine seconds left and
they lost. They lost. They gave up six points and
nine seconds and follow the nets.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, those are the reads last night. Now, listen, you're
gonna go through these. Every team goes to them during
the year. Not every team goes through four or five
six loss, but every team goes through, you know, streaks
of great stuff which we saw just before this. The
rockets go through. And by the way, Amen Thompson, Defensive
player of the Month in the NBA. Think about all

(01:43):
that we're talking about, all the stuff he's don on
the offensive and the guy's locking people down on the
other end in the Western Conference. I uh, for me,
I know you go through these, but it's not so
much loss. It's the way you start the way you lose. Right,
last night's reasons why you amend Thompson the way he's plays,
reasons why you say, man, this is an NBA Western

(02:05):
Conference Finals team in the next year or so, who knows,
maybe this year. And then you watched the last four
and particularly last night, those are the things that make
you say they're not ready. You cannot not in bounds
the ball. You cannot give up open looks on back
to back threes inside of five seconds, right, it just

(02:27):
can't do it. And kudos those shots get knocked down,
but you can't leave them uncontested. And it almost when
the first one went through. Sitting there watching and you think, okay,
just get the ball and bounce foul, go down to
the other and do your thing whatever it is. You
can't and hell, they're fortunate because it was almost five
second violation, you know what I mean, got it and

(02:48):
they knocked it down, they were clutching. But those are
the reasons why you say, okay, are they ready now
a panic and they've lost four in a row. I
assure you that the head coach has this under control.
But you can't let your mind get idle and stuff
where you're starting to play well. I always talk about this,
it's handling failure. It can be a bummer. Now as

(03:10):
a professional athlete, I'd like to think along the way
your career, high school, college, that you've had moments where
you've failed plenty of times, and you're like, you know
that you learn valuable lessons. It doesn't matter. It's relative
at what level it's at. Because if you're a high
school kid and you fail in a championship game where
you in the playoffs and you miss a jump shot,
you're miserable. If you're in college, you're miserable. So the

(03:30):
level of failures in your own mind is big no
matter what level it is. Right, they just see a
little bit more of it in college and pro because
all of them are on TV. But dealing with failure
is one thing most people. When you get punched in
the mouth, I would like to think punch back right,
not literally, but you get my point, and sometimes I
guess literally sometimes yeah. But the other side is how

(03:52):
does it beat you down? Many but you fight back
because nobody likes being embarrassed. Well, the other side of
it is I almost think at times handling successes it's
tougher because the human nature is we've got success, we've arrived,
and the handling of success. And you know what, they've
played good the last four games. They have not handled
it well. So now we're in the double. You got
a guy, things are going well. You lose that last

(04:15):
night was a bummer. I'm more concerned with the next one. Now,
how do you respond? You've lost four in a row?
Who are you? And I think you find out a
lot about a team. Not in four straight wins. You'll
find out stuff. But it's this way and then it's
the way you lost. See for me, it's not so
much a loss. You're gonna get beat Hell, there's good
players in the league. But when you lose like this
uncontrollable stuff, you know what I mean? Controllable stuff? Hell,

(04:38):
you'd have had a better chance at rolling the damn
ball down to the other end and hope the road's
slow up, nobody got to it and the clock ran out.
You get my point. I mean, you're not going to
do that, but you know it's hyperbolic. But those are
the reasons why. Handling success and handling failure. It's the
thing that happens right after that huge success or huge failure. Well,
in a long basketball season, you can get caught up

(05:00):
in the we're heading towards the midseason, boring grind. What
am I going to? Hell, we're already past Why an't
we already passed the mid season? Forty haven't we played? Yeah,
so it's forty two. We're at fifty games games, so
they're nine games passed the midway point? So how they
handle this? Keeping a close eye on the next one.

(05:21):
But you just get those are the ones you gotta
the ones you can't control. Listen, when you play Giannis
or Nikola Yokichin, he hits you for forty what are
you gonna do? You're dealing with best player in the league.
But when you got a chance to close the team
out and you have that lead that's supposed to happen
to the other teams, not not your team. That's how
you're supposed to view it. And it did, and it

(05:41):
was miserable and it looked ugly. But let's keep an
eye on how they come out on the next one,
because you find out a lot about failure, but you
also find out a lot about success. Now, this is
one of those failures and they're oh, they're down four.
You don't want it to start looking like three years ago.
You got to fix that quick. This team's different, but
we're gonna find out how how much different than makeup
is after a which in my case, from my vision

(06:03):
this year, that was the most gut wrenching loss of
the season so far.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
Yeah, there are times throughout this season where the Rockets
look like they've turned the corner, meaning the youth factor
hasn't really played in. But then you see games like
last night, you're like, okay, well the youth factor is
still around, and I go back to a there was
a series of shots excuse me last night that made

(06:29):
me think, what in the hell are we going about?

Speaker 2 (06:32):
The bad shot selection? Yes, bad shot selection.

Speaker 5 (06:35):
A minute left in the ballgame, you're up four points,
reed Shepherd comes haul and ask down after a turnover,
jacks up a running jumper instead of milking the play clock.
Then you get the shot clock. Excuse me, how the playlock?
We're not in the NFL the shot clock. Shoon gets
the offensive rebound, he goes up for a shot, misses

(06:57):
it from like about a two three feet away. Thomson
gets another offensive rebound, kicks it out to Jalen Green.
Jalen Green, there's still like fifty five seconds of Jack's
up a three. Missus throw up four, kick the ball
out and run the damn shot clock? Read Shepard, what
are you doing pulling up? And then Jalen Green? What

(07:17):
are you doing jacket up three? When you're up four
with fifty plus seconds left? Run the shot clock.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
We talk about situational awareness, right, and.

Speaker 5 (07:26):
Oh, by the way, then Zaire Williams comes down and
knocks down a three to cut into one for the
nets because of the poorest shot selection by the Rockets.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Yeah, and you think about it, and it's not even
just shot selection, it's the timing of the shot. You know,
how you coach when you were growing up, you used
to say, or maybe it was even who's just give
me three? Passes, then shoot y'all like the seventh grade stuff,
because you want everybody involved in patience and let's get
the right shot. Well, I understand if you have an
open looking it, but that goes back to that analytics.
Oh I got a chance three to put it away
instead of make him foul me, let me get to

(07:56):
the line, let me push this shot clock down. And
while that may have been a good it's a look
that you could have had possibly fifteen seconds later. It's
situational awareness and whether that's youth, whether that's your basketball
IQ in that moment is more concerned with how it's
going to look that you put the dagger into somebody.

(08:17):
A dagger can happen at the free throw line too.
But shot selection, but shot timing and when to You
got to know when putting the ball on the deck
and moving around or catching and shooting. Those are the
shots you take when you need three quick buckets and
about a buck thirty to go. You have got to
milk it with a lead, make those guys come to
you as opposed to you, because you know what, listen,

(08:39):
it's easy to misshots. Okay, that's why people shoot thirty
and forty percent from beyond the arc or on three
point you gotta be and what's reed Shepard? Young guy? Yeah,
young and still so you gotta understand you hopefully hopefully
learn from it. I have no problem if you've got
a mid range jumper and there's nine seconds on the
clock and it's the best shot you're gonna get, knock
it down. That's what you get paid to do. But

(09:01):
you're exactly right. It was almost you know what it
felt like, hurried? Yeah, that's that. And when's the last
time hurried or desperate? And you had no reason to
be desperate, nor are desperate. It's not a good thing
when it comes to sports. Urgent is they had no
reason to be urgent. The urgency should have been to

(09:21):
kick the ball back out, hold that ball and make
them come to you. And actually, if you have to,
you win the game at the free throw line. Yeah,
and not being able to get it in there at
the end, that's just that great job by the opponent.
But you just can't let that happen. And also maybe
call time out. Yeah, I don't even know how much,
how many I don't even I can't remember how many
they had left with the on the after they knocked
down the first three. But yes, if you can't get

(09:42):
it in, that's situational awareness. Understand where you are with
the game, in the situation of the game, and what
you have, and there's no reason to be desperate a panic.
You had the lead. You actually played right into their
hands and made it seem like you were the team
down three or down six when it first started on
the first part of that side of you know, inside
a handful of seconds left, nine seconds left and they

(10:04):
gave up six points to lose. Yeah, and after that
one there was what like four seconds left or just
inside of five on the second shot what I was
talking about. Yeah, but you saw the panic at first,
couldn't get in, couldn't get it in, cooking it. Then
desperation kicks in, make an air through, boom tip, take
it and their their situation where And this was great
because they didn't sit there and say, oh, get it in,
kick it two, kick it out to three and let

(10:25):
the guy knock down a jumper. Yeah. So one team
was a little wiser last night in a in clutch
and pressure part of a game.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
Ugly, ugly loss they have. Rockets have now lost four
in a row at the hands of.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
The nets, and the nets are terrible. Nets are what
are they?

Speaker 6 (10:42):
They are?

Speaker 5 (10:43):
The Brooklyn nets are now seventeen and thirty three.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Ugly man, But the show goes on. You gotta you gotta,
You got about forty more to deal, yeah or whatever.
We're fifty games fifty thirty two games, two games left, Yeah,
damn dude, and then we go on. We still haven't
had the All Star Game right now? I love that
All Star games. Like, with eight games to go, let's
have the All Star Game? What did what did we
start doing that in season tournament week one of the season.

Speaker 5 (11:12):
Yeah, NBA All Star Game with ten games left, and
then we go into the playoffs, which take three months.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Yeah, the longest playoff. You start the playoffs and by
the time the playoffs are over, the NBA season starts
too late.

Speaker 5 (11:23):
It starts again. Yeah, it's the worst man crazy, all right,
We got a lot to get into. Dana Brown spoke
to the media yesterday at Astros. At Astros, they had
their annual media lunch, and he had some interesting things

hour glass. But man, was he a decision maker? Dude?
The Raiders. Bernie was a Cleveland Brown most of his
career ended up in Miami. I think Bernie still live
in Florida with Miami guy as well, loves his golf.

(13:49):
Bernie was a hell of a player, had that Cleveland
team in the playoffs many times. And the truth is
Brian Sipe when the NFL was the MVP in the
NFL before Bernie it with the clean Brown's been the seventies.
Bernie Cozar has been the best quarterback that the Cleveland
Browns have had since Brent Since the seventies. Now, I
want you to think about that and uh, the hell

(14:11):
of a dude has been through his times and UH
love Bernie. It'll be great to have him on. You know.

Speaker 5 (14:17):
I was thinking yesterday, well, just here locally, just here locally.
I feel like people fans, sports fans are haven't really
been paying attention to the super Bowl. It's like, just
like a, oh, by the way, the super Bowl is
this Sunday. I was on like, I was on a
call yesterday for the for my TENU team, and I

(14:37):
told one of our directors. I was like, hey, don't
forget super Bowl Sunday.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
I'm not.

Speaker 5 (14:40):
I'm not coaching on Sunday. We're not doing any inner squads,
we're not doing practice. It's Super Bowl Sunday. One of
the guys is like, oh, yeah, that's right. I forgot exactly.
And I just feel like this week and if you
watch any of the media days over at Super Bowl
in New Orleans, it's ever every day it's marred by

(15:01):
referee talk.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
It's not about Patrick Mahomes' legacy.

Speaker 5 (15:05):
It's not about if this is gonna be the last
Super Bowl that Travis Kelsey plays in. It's not about
if Jalen Hurts can throw the football well enough to
beat the Chiefs. Will Saquon Barkley do this? Will Saquon
Barkley do that? Is the tush push gonna work against
Chris Jones? No, no, no, no. The referee talk leads
the way. Did you see the refs came out yesterday
and like vehemently denied giving the Chiefs preferential treatment. Well,

(15:32):
if you're doing that, you feel a little guilty.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Maybe, yeah, you don't have to defend yourself if you
didn't do anything exactly. But you know, I'm sure the
mandate from go out and defend yourself. Hell, they're defending
themselves more now than they are telling us why they
made a call on a game. That's my point. Yeah,
I'm with you. I was on a show in Northern
California weekly show that I go on, and they asked
this very question, what's the buzz like for you guys

(15:55):
in Houston talking about everything that's going on. They were
talking about they want to know about the Dallas as Odds,
Hatfields and McCoy's people are ecstatic about the Luca Danti
trades because anytime that the Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Cowboys or
text range would get host Houston fans love it, love it, right,
I said, But then they started talking the Super Bowl.
I said, you want to know truth, I said, here,
here's the order of what the convey I said, were

(16:15):
trying to talk super Bowl? I said, but here's the
order of buzz in our city. One is is offensive
coordinator out that what was going to happen with the
Texans and offensive line. We've answered those two questions so far,
Bregman and why? And Scott Morris, what's going on with that?
I said, there's some buzz and it's growing, even though

(16:37):
they've lost a few in a row. About this young upstart,
but no longer call them young t They're they're pretty
damn good. The Houston Rockets, I said, still talking about
I said, hell, we even you know the Houston Cougars
are well basketball. College basketball is in full force. It's
still not where it needs to be, which it'll be
in about a week and a half as we head

(16:57):
to March Madness. When I say that, you know, ofference
championships finishing out the season, I said, to Cougar Talk,
we talk about it, it'll it'll grow. Because Kelvin Samson's
teams a national finalist type team, and I said, but
you know, the overwhelming talk when it comes to football,
even with the offensive coordinator stuff here is officials. I said,
it's without question, it's it's that talk when it comes

(17:19):
to Super Bowl and four other comments and other topics,
and then it's the actual game and in truth, and
this will not be popular here or in most cities.
We're absurd to think that's the only reason the Chase
Chiefs one. It's it's a borderline utterly disrespectful. Now, when
Travis Kelsey says, why are you guys, why are you

(17:40):
guys pushing this forward to pushing on it to the media, Well,
of course they're pushing on it because it's become just
like we'd push on Why why he's had to answer
the questions over Taylor Swift? Why are you going to her?
Hell we got over unders? And I mean, uh, you
know win or how many times on the prop bet
that they're going to show her during the national anthem?
All those things right, and yet we're not talking about

(18:00):
the game. And in truth, this is one of the
this is a great matchup. So I'm just going to
say it right here that I don't know if official
they're going to play a part in it. I don't
know what the deep thinking is. It's been overwhelming that
it's been favored on one side. What I hope they
don't do is over compensate to the point where it's embarrassing,

(18:24):
to the point where it was a blatant hit on Mahomes.
I don't think there's any worry about this happening, but
a blaytant hit on Mahomes. And they don't call it
on Philly because of all the they're listen. If you're
hearing it all the time, what's the thought process. Yeah, well,
they're already defending it. So I got to make sure
that they don't put this on us after the game.
So let me make a call the other way.

Speaker 5 (18:43):
It's going to even it out and that and I
think it'll be one of those where the ref goes
to grab a flag.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
Ooh, that's a little too close. Yeah. I don't want
people to think I was favoring Mahomes right when he
probably should have thrown it. And that's human nature. So
you don't because you don't want to come out of
this game being the reason. And I hope that doesn't happen.
Just call it right and if you don't like it,
if you're not sure, talk to your fellow referees and

(19:09):
get your ass to the replay whatever that is that
you're allowed to replace or to review. So for me
and I understand the refs and this city's mad and
all of them are mad. The bottom line is the
Chiefs are better than the Texans. The bottom line is
the Chiefs for better than the Buffalo Bills. The bottom
line is the situation football. Philadelphia's rosters better than Kansas City's.

(19:29):
They're better. Think about this, sa Kuon Barkleys had a
season to remember how many times, how many times we
talked about other than us bringing up what Steve Spagnola's
biggest test is this week? How many times is his
name being brought up on the show this week? None? None, none, none.
I mean, I'm most intrigued with how is Spagnola going
to mix that in and find a way not to

(19:49):
let DeVante Smith and aj Brown get man coverage and
Hurts just throw it up and they make a play
all these things. I think it's in truth while it
Pisces is off and it's exhausting and fatigu I'm not
fatigued by the Kansas City Chiefs. I'm actually intrigued, not fatigued,
because they're going for three in a row, and I
think of all the great names in football, nobody's done
it at a time when there's more when the quarterback

(20:10):
parody in this league is ridiculous. So I get that
it's in our crow, but we are beating the dead
horse bad now because most of the time in games,
the Kansas City Chiefs are just better than you. Philadelphia
has just been better than the other teams this year,
and quite frankly, in dominant fashion a lot of times.
This is a great match any other time. Put it

(20:31):
this way, if this was Buffalo and Philadelphia, we would
be going crazy talking about it. And the truth is,
Kansas City when it comes to the talk of greatness,
deserves better. I didn't say deserves better calls or all
that it deserves us to kiss their ass. But in truth,
what if this was the Dallas Cowboys playing in their
third and row right now? The world would be going nuts.

(20:53):
Steelers by Buffalo Baltimore, the Jets think about what, think
about how it would be talked. The bottom line is
we just see or hell, we started to do this
with the Patriots too. People still can't get over Tom
Brady and the Raiders, and neither can I when it
happened with the Raiders, but they won because they're better, right,
and now this team's winn because they're better now. I

(21:14):
don't know if they're gonna win this game, but I do.
I'm actually getting exhausted and fatigued talking about the refs
more than the game. I am may now. Listen, Let's
get to the point now where we quiet that down.
Let's see what they do and how they respond, and
then we can come because there's been enough banter to
have those guys psychology, because they're defending themselves, start to
whack themselves out a little bit here, like what am

(21:34):
I doing? Let's talk about it when we come out
of the game, right, and if it's impact, then then
they got to look long and hard if they haven't already.
But the truth of the matter is, you we can
slice it anyway we want. The Kansas City Chiefs are
just better. I'm not saying Philadelphia just better than the team.
They're better than the officials calls. That's why they don't
need the help. So it is it's for a Super Bowl.

(21:58):
I can't remember for two great teams on a phenomenal matchup,
a time when nationally, and I'm not just talking about here,
the people have feel like they've cared less. Now they're
all gonna party and they're all gonna watch it because
in truth, when it gets right down to it, you're
not well, I'm not turning it on because it's the
cash cheese rep. Your ask. Not only are you not
turning it on, you're betting the national anthem. You're gonna

(22:20):
laugh with your buddies, You're gonna drink, you're gonna eat,
and it's you're gonna watch the commercial. It's another super Bowl.
Whether your team's in it or not, you'll be watching it.
If you're not, then you probably just and you can
find something else to do on a great day. Hopefully
it's golf for having a with family. Great you're watching
you're watching it? Yes, so super right right? And it
is a whether you like it or not. The intrigue

(22:40):
Barkley who doesn't want to see him play? Don't you
want to? If your local see if Jalen Hurts can
keep throw for throw match throw for throw with Patrick
Rams Mahms, Texas guy. I mean come on, man, there's
a lot of great side shows in this artists that
aren't ref related or Taylor Swift related.

Speaker 5 (22:55):
And it's just an oh, by the way thing right now.
But that's how I feel how I feel from the
you know.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
It feels like to me, it feels like the Texans
and the Tennessee Titans.

Speaker 5 (23:03):
Yeah, National seventh team on it. Yeah, it's just oh
oh yeah, that's right, the Super Bowl Sunday, you know.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
And I think some people wear it as a badge
of monitor your ass is watching. I mean, but I
just hope the refs. I don't want to mention the
ref's name other man then introducing him at the beginning
and saying great job at the end.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
I mean, just just to put it in perspective. ESPN
dot com their third headline is n f l r A,
which is the ref Association says theories that officials favorite
chiefs is insulting. That's their third major headline.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
It didn't help this week that a major that the
best one of the three best Major league umpires. It
was on a gambling It was was part and I
didn't say gambled was out of site and got relieved
from his job. Because you know what we're saying. First
time it goes yeah, well they do it in basketball,
they've done it in baseball. Of course, that's what they're thinking.
You know, deep down inside, you know how hard that
is to pull off.

Speaker 5 (23:56):
You know, I got some theories about that. Hobert, the
umpire got fired for him and his friend betting on sports.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Him there on the same betting site. He nobody said
he bet. He has not been charged with betting yet, betting.
He's been out gambling, he's been look at it. They said.
He has not been found guilty of betting on the sports.
So it's just that he and his partner, that's the
it's the look of integrity, lack of integrity.

Speaker 5 (24:25):
Isn't this the same thing as we talked about it yesterday?

Speaker 2 (24:29):
And his friend? Umpires aren't golden Child's true. The golden child,
the golden boy in baseball is. And I told you
the second cham Id, you're never going to know the truth.
And there's no way in hell the guy will ever
get suspended. If the Major League Baseball knew he bet
on a baseball game, you wouldn't know. I believe that
they do know. I believe right now that if let's say,

(24:51):
who's okay, if Patrick Mahomes was on let's say he
got busted for I'm just saying he did did blow
and they found him with a recreational drug or steroids
taking something you know you wanted to get Jack jacket?
Do you think you're gonna know? I know they'll say
you will. Can you imagine if Peyton Manning or Patrick
Mahomes or Brady would have been Now we say, well,

(25:12):
look what happened to Brady deflate? They had no choice
on the deflate thing. Yeah, because but I'm talking about
something they could keep under wraps that. I believe that
more than I believe eighteen referees are gambling. I believe
that they're we quiet this down. What's some steroids? It
helped Mahomes. He's not a lieman who cares. Yeah, you know,
I'm not saying he's tall. You get my point. So
I'm with you. I I it is they're gonna protect

(25:37):
what protects them. I don't know if referees are aren't,
but I know this, the Kansaity Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles
deserve more talk about the game than they do. Should
not be dominating this conversation. Yeah, there's no doubt.

Speaker 4 (25:49):
Well, you know, you know, Sean, my my trainer told
me that it was uh, it was vitamin B and
vitamin C.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
There was no an of R and me.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
No.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Hey, listen, I had no idea what I've put in
my body. It's always my face. Yeah, I had no idea.
I had no idea when I smoked this spliff that
it was actually THC. And I know there was weed
at cannabis yea, yeah, I thought I was. I thought
I was smoking a cigarette. Yeah. I do care about
this game. Actually, who played last year Kansas City and
who forty nine ers? I care about that one too.

(26:18):
I care about them. I think this is one of
the one of the months. Yeah, one of the more
intriguing matchups we will have because of all this. Philadelphia
is really good.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
I just want Saquon Barkley to run for like three
hundred thousand yards against season.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
So this might be Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen stuff, where
get yours the big star? Don't let Pip and get
thirty as well, meaning don't let Jalen Hurts go off
for a or a J Brown Cats three touchdown passes.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
Yeah, Oh, by the way, the games on Sunday. Yeah, crazy,

a hard.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
I mean, if you can't get Cohen right, then you
know some guys you can give him the A. You know,
the the no. When you spell the word good, you

(34:08):
going Marco from Tropoile. Hear that? Yeah, exactly? What do
you What do you think Marco from Tropoio is doing
right now? I don't know, probably always in jail or dead.
I think Tropoile is dead. I think Neissen took him out,

(34:29):
did he. Yeah, he took out Marco from Tropoyle, which
led to some people being pissed off and getting revenge,
trying to get revenge on him because Marco from Tropoyle's
he's a baller. Do you slam Neeson's the shot caller?
Do you think that.

Speaker 5 (34:45):
Justin Tucker and Deshaun Watson are hanging out together right now?

Speaker 2 (34:48):
No? Why why do you want to start my morning together?
Why do you want to start my Monday off like that? Well,
those too, if they ended up in Cleveland together, shut
the franchise down. Just shut it down, just shut it down. Yeah,
they did, just shut it down. If the Browns were wise,

(35:08):
they just did. The Browns were wise. They just opened
fifteen fifteen. You know, places have opened their own facility,
massage facility and keep it all in house. Maybe they
can massage each other. Yea, they've learned how to do it.
I guess let's say, you know, it's just what a

(35:29):
gross thought. It's you know, fifty three in the morning.

Speaker 5 (35:31):
Excuse me in all reality, if you're Justin Tucker, dude,
why are you going to high end massage places to
try to get that kind of activity done? Come on, bro,
like be better than that, Like, first of all, be
a better human being. But second of all, if you're
really trying to do that don't go to U.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
Don't make them money. Yeah, don't be putting people in
an uncomfortable situation. Go to a legit place. I got
a better idea for him. Just sit home and hammered
out yourself. Yeah exactly, And then you can blame yourself
for everything and complain it yourself. Say I didn't get
what a good one? Later on the close your eyes
and visualize somebody else. Okay, kind of explains why you

(36:10):
didn't kick as well this year. Well maybe, yeah, I'm kidding,
but it's just it's not funny, it's gross. But we
all got three spots ye high ends. Yeah, let's go
to Ritz Carlton spa. What what are you thinking? Just
just what's you know what? You got enough money? Put

(36:31):
listen next time, just hire a dude, exactly, Just hire
a dude. Yeah. If your temptations there, then you think
different than I do. Right, it's I just you know what,
just it's professional. You need your calf rub. Go get
your calf rub so you can kick. Okay, and uh,
I don't know is he married? I don't think. So
make love to your wife. Okay, you know you buy

(36:55):
a table and have you have your wife have your
wife dress up, but she's a high end therapist or
the name plate on you go and then go do
your thing. Okay, I just I don't know, man, I
don't know, and you know what claims his innocence and
so I guess we gotta wait, dude, he is married. Yeah,
so it's I'm sure she feels great this morning they
got married, since it happened. Who knows, And maybe she's

(37:16):
sticking behind because she's maybe she's like, I don't believe it,
and that's okay, sticking by her man. But it's just
no reason to put him in comfortable situations. That's all
there is. If they're lying, that's a bunch of lying people,
then shame on them. But who the hell knows. But
give me a different topic, like the super Bowl, like
imagine you imagine didn't say super Balls, they said super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (37:38):
Like imagine you go to the what's the big badass
hotel over in Vegas, the Wind, that's one of the
super high end ones. You over the Wind, and you
go to that massage there. You go to that massage
room to get you a high end spa treatment day
and you know.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
And a facial and all. But yeah, no pun intended.
You know what I'm saying. Yeah, you're like, hey, what

Speaker 5 (42:56):
They got this hot dog, dude, and I know that
I love.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
Yeah, it's a big old Glizzy too, man, and I love.
That's the most important thing about going to the baseball season. Honestly.
What's the new victual? Yeah? What's the what's the dog?
Is it a big one? Yeah? Is like a foot long?

Speaker 11 (43:13):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (43:13):
Really? Yeah? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (43:15):
I'm not being I mean, I know I'm being tongue
cheek because it's a glizzy. But yeah, it's it's a
big one.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
I love good glizzies. It's a big foot long. What's
the okay? I want calls on this? Okay, when you
talk about glizzies hot dogs? Is it okay? I'm gonna
give you a bunch of them because I know old
school may say, okay. Is you know how when you
put it in the microwave too long in the end start
to start to flare out, you know? Okay?

Speaker 5 (43:40):
So is it's called a sorry, It's called a daddy
Mac dog. It's a foot long with mac and cheese
and pickles on it and chili.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
So they go cheese, pickles and chili. I love it.

Speaker 5 (43:50):
She it's mac and cheese. It's a foot long hot dog, chili, mac.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
And cheese, mac and cheese. Okay, So the daddy Mac dog.
So can we call it mac daddy dog? Or do
we go daddy Mac. We'll call daddy Mac Daddy Mac
mac day, same thing count right, depending on what you
want to put first. So the daddy Mac dog? So
all right? So old school in a hurry, throwing my
hot dog in the micro awave for the ends flare
out right sizzling. Old school, even older school boil oil it.

(44:19):
So a dozen dogs in there and boil it and
toast the bone, toast the bun a little bit. Hey,
there's that. There's two? Three is cut it? Fry it?
Cut it really type of thing. You cut it down
the middle and fry it. That's three or out on

(44:41):
the grill. Give me the you know, the black rings
and the grill around it. Give me the old school boys,
That's what I'm saying. Everyone initial thought is, oh, you
got to you gotta grill everybody, and you love a grill, dude,
the old school boiling. Yeah, there's all said, and every
now and again. I know when the dogs, right is
when the microwave ends flare out and it's it's kicking

(45:03):
stuff all over the microwave, right then, grease everywhere. I know.
But I'm telling you underrated, which may be the best
of all is the old school frying pan. Cut it
open dog, fry that bitch up. Yeah, man, I'm dead serious,
because not only does the bun off of the fixings,
but when you open it up, you can slide the
mustard in between the slice and the dog. And I'm

(45:26):
going to tell you another way. You know how sometimes
you'll lead a hot dog well all the time. And
I'm one of those that I like the like for
instance of Chicago dog where it's got peppers and you
know those those pickles, and the relish that it's so
loaded on top of the dog the first bite everything
falls out. I know it sounds, but this is a hack, Dude,
to hear my hack. Okay, put the fixings down first

(45:50):
and the dog on last. You put the mustard down
if you're a ketchup person, relish, put all that down
first in the bunt and then stick the dog on
top of it so the compression keeps it in the
bun and it's not as messy and it's good. There's ways,
And I'm like, I've I've gotten to the point where, now,
if you're in a hurry, you'll do but I've gotten
to the point where I'm more stick to all the

(46:13):
the stuff underneath it, so it's not all over the place.
You make it makes sense to you. Then I can
push the dog down in it and it flattens the
stuff on the bun. But I'm just curious. Ok So
you get the four pronged I actually I'll put it
I'm gonna put a poll question out, so go to
Sean Unfiltered and check it out and vote, and Finn
Finn retweet it all you folks listening, what the four

(46:36):
ways to do it? You boil it, you grill it,
your microwave it where the fins flare, or you've cut
it open and fry it on the stove. Dude, You're
gonna get votes for all of them, because I'm with you.
I grew up on fried and fry them in the
in the skillet and or boil them. We weren't doing

(46:57):
microwave hot dogs yet. Now your microwave a hot dog
in a heartbeat, I can I can quite literally smell.
I can smell the boil and the mac and cheese.
My parents used to make when I was younger. They
would boil the dogs out.

Speaker 5 (47:10):
Of a box, yes, and they would do the velveta
craft or the velveta shell not the craft of Alvit
the velveta shells in a rectangle box and one boil
on one burner it was the boil of the hot dogs,
and on the other was the freaking shells.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
Whole meal for a family of six costs nine dollars yeah, dude.
As we just had a caller his name was Josh.
He said, don't forget to air freight them. That's the
new wave. Yeah, that's that man, dude, I get it.
It is easy way to do it. Air friar can
add some air friar is good on a lot of things.

Speaker 6 (47:44):
I got.

Speaker 2 (47:45):
I got myself an air friar. Dude.

Speaker 5 (47:47):
It is a game. Oh dude, You ever hear me out?
You ever air fried a steak?

Speaker 2 (47:51):

Speaker 4 (50:00):
Oh, put hours smart ass on your smart speaker.

Speaker 2 (50:04):

Speaker 4 (50:14):
The Salisbury Steakouts, Salsbury Teakout on.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
The Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 5 (50:21):
Time for the steak out here on the Sean Salisbury Show,
Sean bron and Tripoli. We're gonna get back to talking Astros.
Next segment coming up at seven thirty. Dana Brown spoke
to the media yesterday talking about Alex Bregman and some
internal discussions.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
What does that mean?

Speaker 5 (50:41):
That's coming up at seven thirty, all right for the
Steakout Sean. We're gonna have Dan Patrick on with us tomorrow.
He is at Radio Row. He sat down with Cooper Manning.
That is Arch Manning's father. Obviously, Arch Manning gonna be
the starting quarterback for the University of Texas this upcoming season.

(51:02):
He's stayed at Texas even though Quinn Yours has been
the starter. Cooper Manning had some interesting ways to answer
this question by Dan Patrick. Dan asked him about, you know,
basically saying, what do you tell your son when he
comes home? And he says, Dad, I'm tired of sitting.
I want to transfer. This is Cooper Manning's response to that.

(51:29):
Gotta love a good buffer.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
Well, Dan, I'll tell you man I told him to
transfer and he said, no, Pops, No, I'm kidding.

Speaker 5 (51:34):
Arts Manning playing for the University of Texas throws a
quick little bubble screen that's going to be a loss
of two yards second down and twelve.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
Little crossover broadcasting. I love it.

Speaker 5 (51:50):
Yeah, a little technical difficulty. See if we can get
that bad boy fired up here's Cooper manning.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
Some other place.

Speaker 10 (51:55):
Now, I think I think having your children struck with
some things is good. I mean, yeah, it's frustrating not
to play. Did he love it?

Speaker 3 (52:05):
No?

Speaker 2 (52:05):
Was it probably good for him the long run, yes?

Speaker 10 (52:08):
And so you know, you know, you don't want your
kiddos to come home and be unhappy. But at the
same time, sometimes going through a little hardship and some
bumps in the road are are good. Arch Is gonna
have plenty more of those, you know, these are the
real ones when you get beat this year and throw
have bad games.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
I mean they're you know, you know how they do
in the media.

Speaker 10 (52:27):
They they crown you way too early and they jump
on and kill you. And so he's getting over way
too much attention and way too much credit, and he's
going to struggle and they're gonna say.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
He's not as good, he's overrated. It's coming. We alway
knows it. So it's uh, it's kind of easy to
see that.

Speaker 12 (52:42):
You know, right, But you can telling that is going
to happen Eli and tell him, Peyton can tell him.
But until he goes through that, right, it's no fun
to go through it. It's but it's going to happen.
Everybody is he's you know, it's inevitable. No one has this.

Speaker 10 (52:56):
Football is hard and playing quarterback is really hard, especially
when all eyes.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
Are on you. So it's just part of the deal.

Speaker 10 (53:02):
It's part of growing up and you know the whole
everybody likes a guy could you know, get beat down
and come back and you got to keep coming.

Speaker 2 (53:09):
All right.

Speaker 5 (53:10):
I picked this because I feel, yeah, definitely positive there.
I picked that because it's something that you and I
preach all the time, and we talked about this numerous time,
but to hear it from two greats obviously Cooper Manning
and Dan Patrick to discuss this, I just want to
get your thoughts on. I mean, it's you hint the
nail on the head man, let your kid fail.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
You should clip that, listen. I'm not telling people how
to raise their kid. And I know every situation is different.
There's no more pressure filled situation in the country than
be in the quarterback at Texas with the last name Manning. Period.
There just isn't. And you consider that the other enormous

(53:49):
pressure on. Now they guard it and they've got a
good team around him, not just the team on the field,
but the Manning family and everybody. They're smart with the
way they guard. You don't see Cooper, I mean of
the Manning the sun the quarterback. You do not see
Arch Manning doing five hundred commercials right now. They're very
I mean, they're they're gonna pick and choose spots. But

(54:12):
what this does do Dad? Great player sons first round
picks the three Mannings were the two first picks of
the draft and the second pick of the draft, counting
the pops. Yep. So aside from the fact that he's
got to go play at a big university, in the
pressure on national champion and all that, there's always going

(54:35):
to be where you're not your dad, think about every
great player Elway went through with his kids, Montana had
kids and went and played Michael Jordan they and rarely
does it turn out that the other guy's better. And
who knows, Arch Manning may be better. Tell you what
he's got better than any of the Manning family feet yep.
And I love Pete, but they'll admit it. They played.
They played a little bit in the well. Now I'll

(54:56):
tell you, I take that back. The pops Archie, arch
got Archie's legs because Archie Manning could run his ass off.
So he got the great thing about it. It seems like
he's got the intelligence of the Manning family, the football IQ,
the feet of his dad, the acumen of the of
the you know, the sons and the dad, the pocket presence,

(55:19):
the size he's he's got it all. But arch may
I mean Cooper's one hundred per cuppa? Is he like
call him in the South? Cup of Manning is one
hundred percent His pops is one hundred percent correct. You
need to clip that and every single family that has
a kid that's frustrated, and it may not apply to
your kid, This may be a unique situation. Every everybody

(55:40):
needs to hear that because it's right. And the number
one thing is yeah, quarterback football is hard. Quarterbacking is
even harder. I can tell you this that if you're
not willing to let your kid get his ass kicked
and see how he read responds to, your kid will
never be a success. Sorry for Coffin. When I say that,

(56:03):
I don't mean he can't have success. I'm talking about
sustained success and greatness. He is one hundred percent correct.
We are at a time now who likes to see,
nobody wants to see their kid go through, your daughter
or son go through you know who hasn't of us
when I was growing up sitting at the table. You
get home at midnight and you broke up with a
girlfriend and your mom's sitting at the table, want to

(56:24):
talk to you about or your pops And it's the say,
nobody wants to see your kids struggle. But he said it,
maybe the greatest thing that will happen for arch Manning's career,
aside from all that talent, is having a little bit
where you were the biggest dog and there's a better
player in front of you right now. Now your time's coming.

(56:45):
So getting kicked in the teeth and failing isn't a
lifetime sentence, no, And so that's the greatest thing that
it's okay to let your feel your kid fail. And unfortunately,
fortunately for the Mannings all the success and tough time,
Peyton took a lot of credit for not beating you know,
Florida and then goes on to a phenomenal career. He

(57:07):
got kicked in the teeth. They all have and you
go through your career and for for arch Manning, he'll
go through it. But what hell he's been able to watch?
How you're gonna lose him. You're gonna lose some men.
It's hard, it's a hard position. And with all the pressure,
he's got more pressure than his dad did, got more
pressure than even Peyton. And why because he already everybody's

(57:28):
already gonna no matter what he does, is gonna be
well was he Peyton? Or was he was he? Eli?
Was he was he Archie? Which is not fair? And
he may be better than all of them, but he
may not. How do you know what success is if
you don't have if you don't have a chance to
pick yourself up from the as a mutter, getting your
ass kicked. So it's the greatest thing. And I know
parents that well, no you don't want it. Yes, let
your kid fail. It's gonna hurt. And the problem is

(57:50):
the Mannings don't live because they've already done lived the career.
The Mannings don't live their career through their son. They
don't need to, or their or their nephews have lived
their career. They're gonna let him live it. And part
of living it and doing it right is getting beat
getting your asking. Listen. I hate to tell you this
they're gonna lose a game at some point next year,
more than likely an arch Manning's gonna throw an interception.

(58:11):
He's already seen failure, laid a fumble on the ground
that put him in a bind. Then they lose that
game came in one play, laid it on the ground.
Who doesn't matter whose fault it is. He fumbled and
I'm sure it sucked because he didn't give him any
snaps in that game, and the one big one was
a fumble and they lost it. Okay, So protecting your
kids one thing, babying them from adversity. You're not doing

(58:35):
them any favors. And the Mannings know that because they've
lived it. Let that be an example. It's okay to
stay and compete. Now in certain situations there's three guys
for you're never going to get a snap. I get
why you transfer, but the fact that we're trying to
guard our kids. Now, you protect them, but you can't
guard him from real life. At some point in time,
they are gonna get kicked right in the nizzuts. Okay,
So what are you gonna do? Try to take him

(58:56):
away from that after they get kicked. Guess what put
your arm around him say we've got to go back
to work. That's the way it works. Yeah, I don't.
I don't believe in the soft cell a kid now.
I don't. Never when I say cell I'm talking about
sell them that everything's going to be a bet of roses.
Other way. Matter of fact, think on what am I
going to do when this hits? How am I prepared
for this? Because if it hasn't, it will. And I

(59:19):
think that's a brilliant answer. And I and I can
tell you this Cooper a lyon. That's how they are
treating him now. My closest when I was teaching at
the Manning camp, we came home from a night we
had a few cocktails at the night with the coaches.
Do come and Uh, I wasn't sure. We were in
a big like hotels, I mean a big apartment thing.
We me and Cooper were actually in the same in

(59:41):
the same uh like it's not a dorm but an apartment.
We're the same, in the same place. I can't get
bed my bed, Cooper's late. We're lated in the same bed.
Shoulders jewel right, get up, And I'm like, oh, we
were talking. He made a oh, but yeah he was
at bed. We'd been out together, right, get home and
one falls asleep, come home later with the local pub

(01:00:02):
there at Manning Camp with the coach and just having
a good time. He get over later bed. Whose shoulders is?
But it was Cooper. I was like, hey, good to
see it, buddy. Yeah, I'm not cozy in you, okay.
And he's the funny You think pet the funniest member
of the family, it's him by far.

Speaker 5 (01:00:19):
Him and Jamis Winston did some stuff together yesterday at
at Radio Row and Dude, I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:00:25):
Telling you, Peyton and Eli got Cooper's Cooper's humor. He
didn't get it from there. Cooper's is funny. And they'll
tell you that guy in their competitive sale. He's as
funny as it gets in that family. The humor starts
with Cooper Manning. I'm just telling. And if he gets if, if, if,
if Arch has all that work, ethic, all that talent,

(01:00:49):
and has the humor of the Manning family which we
get to see on commercials in Saturday Night Live, Peyton's hilarious, right,
then he's got it all whipped. And make no mistake,
Cooper the comedian and the family. Yet Peyton feels like
he's a comedian because they're all funny. And you know
what's great, they all will joke you to death. They
will all at your expense. They'll laugh at themselves. That

(01:01:13):
is a great family to hang over. I had so
much fun. We just set up there with Peyton. When
we're at the bar just having a beer and listen,
it is comments and funny. And now when it's down
to business, what they do when you're a coach at
their camp, don't show up late. You won't get invited
back when they say practice is at ten. Don't show
up at ten ten thinking, oh, there's one thousand, and
there's fifteen hundred kids out there when it's time to

(01:01:35):
take care of those kids. No matter what you did
to party night for, you better show up on time
and you better be prepared to work so they get
the best of both. You want to have some fun,
We'll have some fun and laugh. But tomorrow we got
to be at a meeting at seven thirty. Don't be late.
I'm not even talking to the ten year old. I'm
talking about the grown adult who's been in the league
for fifteen years. And I love that family. Man and

(01:01:57):
I arch Manning. What great advice. Yeah, not only question
by Dan and letting and letting Cooper tell us phenomenal
and it will it will bode well. And it doesn't
have to be Arch Manning or a Manning name for
you to do the same for you. We all should
take that example with our kids. Protect him, but you
can't baby him. Yeah. Another thing about uh, I can't

(01:02:17):
hide him from tough times.

Speaker 5 (01:02:18):
Another thing about Cooper Manning is he was the best
athlete out of all of that un until he got
spinal stenosis and had to quit.

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
And he was a really good wide receiver and he
was committed to and guess yes he was. And guess
who the money man? And that guess who handles his
company is all overbody. If anybody knows I had to
handle all that money, guess who's handled it at all? Cooper? Yeah. Yeah,
So you can also look at him and say, I
know I got a good quarterback. Yeah, but you guys,
I handle your money. Don't be still do something stupid.

(01:02:46):
So advising the big money and that's a lot of
money to have to move around, that's a lot man,
and his kid's gonna make plenty himself.

Speaker 5 (01:02:53):
Yeah, great advice. Love the Manning family and Cooper's phenomenal
let your kid fail which will lead them to more success?
It will, There's no doubt. Seven one, three, two, two five,
seven ninety is an ever to join here. On Sports
Talk seven ninety the Sean Salisbury Show, Data Brown talked
about quote unquote losing Alex Bregman.

Speaker 2 (01:03:09):
Is that door slam shut? That's next? Trasian Wealth. Speaking
of Wealth and Cooper Manning and all the things that
they do, wouldn't you like to have somebody you also trust.
Super Bowl preparations are here and it's getting closer. We
are days away. How long have they thought about this
and prepared? We think they just prepared for two weeks.
Guys have been paring, preparing for this for their life,

(01:03:31):
for this one three hour moment. Are you doing the
same for the rest of your life and your retirement?
And it's not just retirement to tradition, Wealth doesn't ey
want to make sure you're prepared for it? But what
about leading into retirement? If you're thirty years away from retirement,
why wouldn't you get out excuse me in front of it?
So I don't care if you're thirty or you're seventy
it's better to start sooner than later. So think about

(01:03:53):
the preparation. Are you doing that with your wealth advisor,
Local Entrusted, Trasian Wealth, Woodlands and Sugarland free review. It's
a free review, and it's on your future, whether it's
risk tolerance, how much money do you need to save
for retirement? How much do you need to keep for retirement?

retired forever? Have you done your due diligence and got

(01:04:13):
with the person that's trustworthy, that is excellent, that is
also an expert in their field when it comes to
your money and all the years you've put in working,
I would imagine that's important. But you can't just wake
up one day, fall off the turn up truck and
land in wealth advisorship and retirement success because you decided
you didn't prepare for it. That ain't the way it works.

Salisbury show continued.

Speaker 5 (01:05:03):
And he mentioned Alex Bregman even at one point said
quote unquote we lost Bregman.

Speaker 2 (01:05:10):
End quote. Here's Dana Brown.

Speaker 11 (01:05:12):
Well, I mean, ultimately we're still having conversations about internally,
and I could probably leave it at that.

Speaker 13 (01:05:20):
Okay, what's the frustration level on on that progress or
lack of.

Speaker 8 (01:05:27):
Progress.

Speaker 13 (01:05:28):
I'll break breakman situation decision from their side, and I
guess from the outside as well.

Speaker 2 (01:05:33):
Yeah, I mean Bregman's a free agent.

Speaker 11 (01:05:35):
You know, they can decide to do what they want
to do and so and as long as he's a
free agent, we'll just continue to have our internal conversations
about him still being development. We're continuing to have internal
conversations because he's still available, and you know, we're just wondering, like,

(01:05:56):
you know, when he's going to make a decision, but
the fact that he's available, you still have conversations about it.

Speaker 5 (01:06:02):
That's Dana Brown speaking to the media. There's a little
Q and A right there. And then he also followed
up on internal conversations, he's wondering what we're wondering, what
the hell are you gonna make a decision?

Speaker 2 (01:06:11):
Bright that I like data said, well, you know he's
still available, or trying to figure out when he's gonna
make a decision. It sounds to me like they're as
confused as the rest of us, and they're it doesn't
look like they're going to make some major change in
the offer. It didn't sound and maybe it'll be a
nice reverse psychology that'll happen. It didn't sound like that

(01:06:32):
was inevitable or that it was close to happening that
he's coming back. That almost felt like he was ninety
percent of his bodies out the door that if he
wants to come here, great, But I don't know, does
it feel like it's the number one priority right now? No.
Just from that, it almost feels like it's like, well,

(01:06:55):
we've got to prepare. Like they're in the holding pattern
like the rest of us. So but you've got to
the astros have to prepare is if he's not here.
If he is, then you got a bonus and you
get to move people around. And I wonder if you
know when when Joe spot had told us a little
over a week ago that jose Al two ve Josey

(01:07:18):
playing left field was obviously depended on what Bregman was
going to do. I'm almost getting the point now where
I think that because they want to limit Jordan's left
field play, that if they're not going to put hose
Al tub out there sometimes anyway to make sure his
bats in the lineup, and if Dubon to give him
just a different look and perspective, it may not surprise
us that if even if Bregman isn't here, you get

(01:07:40):
a few run in left field if you want to
limit Jordan, it's starting to get to the point where
Jordon feels like it's going to be full the older
he gets. He's not old, but the older gets full time.
DH guy, big poppy, you're twenty seven something like that,
twenty eight. Maybe dude feels like he's been in the
league for yeah years, he's a grown ass man. He's

(01:08:00):
twenty seven. There you go. But it's like, what do
you want to do? Instead of maximize seven years out
of me, you'd like to maximize fifteen fifteen right, So
no doubt even though he's good and let listen, he's
more than serviceable. He's a good player with a good
left field arm. Yeah, and he's efficient. His arm's pretty
efficient left field, and the big fellow covers some ground.
Now you watch him run the bases, and I think
they'd like to make sure that continues for a long time.

(01:08:23):
And there you have it.

Speaker 5 (01:08:24):
You put Jord on and left, Myers and center, and
Chaz and right. Jordan has the best arm.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
Yeah, and you're and well see maybe a little underrated range.
That's probably not a lot of gold gloves gonna Now
I understand Myers is a good defensive player, but none
of them have the oh my gosh hose. Your left
fielder should never have your strongest arm exactly. That's that point. Yeah,
that's the whole point. Yeah, the water guns out there

(01:08:51):
left field, you usually go to hide. You usually go
to hide the arm that you know guy well, like
I said, yeah at the when man he got to Boston,
it was.

Speaker 5 (01:09:03):
Don't hit it to me exactly, but I could hit,
and many can hit. Manny has hit like four hundred
this year, gonna drop fifty bombs.

Speaker 2 (01:09:11):
Just put him in left. If Manny played left field
like he hit, Manny Ramirez will be a top five
player at all times. Well he was a boy. The
dude could hit with a broomstick. Okay, but god he
was field. You played with eight defensive players when Manny
was that, you know the old softball like, would you
have enough guys? You put one a left center field,
one right. We only got eight guys. Oh, it's okay,

(01:09:32):
We're gonna be fine. Are they still playing with a
rover and softball where they got ten bodies where you
can run, move the roving guy can move it. Let's
just hear you're too shy and you're playing with eight
That's what it looked like with Manny. Yet every now
and they need surprise you with a good throw or
a nice catch, but the hat falling off. But mostly
it was I'm going to give up a run in
the gap, but then I'll hit a three run home
work grand slime to fix you at the plate when

(01:09:52):
I come up next.

Speaker 5 (01:09:53):
Or he'll just randomly cut off a throw from deep
left center field.

Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
And then I have no idea why he died for you,
No idea, why, no clue? But man could he rake
I know, God, dude, you get breaking his sleep. I'm
actually surprised he's not in the Hall of Fame well
any more. And he included in that steroid BS two. Yeah. Yeah,
I'm talking about removing that thought because when you bring
up names, you have to ask was he instead of
he's one of them? Right? Yeah? So regardless of that, yeah,

(01:10:20):
it was some other crazy ass when he's in both.
Wasn't it like a.

Speaker 5 (01:10:23):
Career three twelve hitter with over almost six hundred bombs?

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
Is the five hundred bomb? That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (01:10:28):
Twelve time All Star, nine time Silver Slugger batting title,
won the Dude's Series MVP, and he's won two World Series.

Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
He's a Hall of Famer. And now look now do
Grand Slams. Where he's on the all time Grand Slam list.
I'll bet you she's top five, maybe even top three.
He's hit twenty one Grand Slams. It's third all time.

Speaker 5 (01:10:46):
There you go, and he's hit twenty nine postseason home runs,
that's the most in Major League Baseball history.

Speaker 2 (01:10:52):
Everything but his glove, and maybe wasn't it was it
wasn't it like a estrogen drug or something? At one
point time. I'm mistaken. Listen, just stop it, Manny Ramirez.
That's why I'm saying, How's he not in the Hall
of Fame? It was gosh, it was something something along
the lines with that. That the estrogen thing. I'm gonna

(01:11:14):
look that up during the break, because how's he not? Dude?
Look at his number. That's that's that's got Hall of
Fame all over it. The guy can rake his I
mean with the bat in his hand. The guy was
a he hit for average, hit for power, drove in runs,
clutch postseason home runs, grand slams people and running runners
in scoring position was never a problem for Manny Ramirez.
Can I tell you a quick story, real quick, quick,

(01:11:35):
quick story, real quick. It'll take just a few seconds.
Terry francona friend, I take my son, Dodge Mike, my
family diehard Red Sox fans opening series in Arlington. Red
Sox get me tickets when we were living in Dallas.
My son, who's at that time eighth grade or maybe
seventh grade, a good baseball player. We get there for

(01:11:57):
batting practice so we can say hi to the sum
of the friends, some of the guys, because remember, I'd
help those guys choose their fantasy team. So we go
down or we'll walking by and I go and Terry
was there. Terry, Sean gets your butt down here. So
me and my son go sit in the dugout and
he's sitting there carrying on a fifteen minute conversation with
my boy before the game. So we go hang around
the batting cage and all the fellas are there, bless you,

(01:12:17):
thank you, and having some laughs with Mike, Mike Lowell
and that group. I think JD. Drew was there. That
they're just a bunch of guys around the bating cage
and my son's standing there in all right. Manny Ramirez
comes running in sports fans starts talking, laugh, Hey Sean,
how you doing? You know that the time I was
doing television and all that. Right, you're on there. You're
in in their living room every day, you know, sports
Center in NFL Life. I introduced my son to Manny,

(01:12:40):
and my son loves Manny, talks to him. Everything's great.
Later that season introduced him. We're at brunch the rich Carlton,
I take it back. Is it the fourth seasons in
Las Colinas Red Sox are in town. They got a
later day game, they have the red sox. Obviously many

(01:13:00):
emiers was walking through the lobby, or we're walking in brunch.
This is months later. He comes up to us. He
hugs my son and says, Dodge, how you doing? What
I promise remembered it. All the things you think about
Manny Ramires, it doesn't matter because now Manny Reminers hung
the moon. Probably it had nothing to do with me,
I said, I said, Soth, that had nothing to do
with me. You introduce him, said your name. Once he

(01:13:21):
walked up to my son in that lobby, Sean, how
you doing? But he said to my son first. He goes, Dodge,
how you doing? Good to see you again in the lobby.
Months later, it's incredible man opening series in April, and
a year later at that facility, the Ritz Carlton, I said,

(01:13:42):
month a year later at brunch, he says hello to
my son and called him by his first name without
being reintroduced. And right then and there, I thought, you
know what, many Vermeers will never do wrong in my
son's I said, he was just a kid, right and
I'm forever grateful for it because he paid attention. And
to this day, Manny Mayer's one for the all time
favorites and always will be.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
Well, why do you think he he's he's a hall
of fame. He should be a Hall of famer. Attention
to detail man, And it did really just a little
bit moved me because it had nothing to do with me.
Oh you know you're sports fanning. Yeah, And I didn't
know him that well. It just high and meeting him
and the rest of I knew guys in the Red
Sox far better than him, and Francona was one of them.
And he said called him by his first name. A
year later, wow, because brunches right, April said like, like, uh,

(01:14:25):
you know the Easters let that at the time. A
year later when they came back, saw him in the
lobby where they were staying and said, I called him
by his first name. So I thought, you know what,
Maniel Mayers the night he could strake out fifteen fifty
times in a row.

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
And that's when my son was like, Daddy called me
by Amerson. He sure didn't. I didn't. I didn't see
him beforehand to tell him to do that. A year later,
it's crazy, pretty impressive. That is impressive.

a triple You got a bad connection, buddy. Don't go anywhere.
We'll get you inn eight o'clock hour though, Uh, Triple
whenever you get also with brain in that request go
over to map LEAs, Charles, what's up?

Speaker 15 (01:17:07):
Good morning. I originally called to mention that Tom Brady
backed up Brian Greasy for two years at Michigan, but
since y'all moved on to Astros, I am so over
the Bregmant thing. I mean, great ballplayer, great defensively, but
I truly believe that we've upgraded at third and first offensively,

(01:17:28):
and so I think the Astros are going to be
a lot better this year than they were last year,
as long as the pitching holds up.

Speaker 5 (01:17:34):
Hey, Charles, let me ask you a question just from
a fan, a pure fan perspective. Sean and I are
both exhausted with this, with this Bregmant stuff. What what
makes it so exhausting for you?

Speaker 15 (01:17:46):
Just the fact that you know, make a decision, dude.
You know, I truly think he wants to be an Astro,
or he would have already signed somewhere. But I think
the Astros have moved on. They just don't want to
say the words out loud because.

Speaker 6 (01:17:59):
Of the.

Speaker 2 (01:18:02):
Yeah, I'm with you on that. Appreciate the call, Charles, Hey,
I have a question about that, Charles. Thank you, man,
I appreciate it. Bran or or point. It's almost in
agreeing with with Charles said, it's almost to the point
where at this stage, it's like, you know how you
look over there, like the gal at the high school dance,
the good looking one, and he said, I wonder if

(01:18:22):
she wants to dance with me? Yeah, and you kind
of edge a little closer or somebody that you want
to kind of get it. You know, it's not a
girl or business forere you want to get Yeah. I
wonder if they won, if they would include me. It
almost feels like you look at our show and say, well,
I know I've flirted out there, but you guys want
me back home, right? Can I be involved in this conversation? Yeah?
It almost feels like he's waiting for the now. This

(01:18:44):
is just it may be hyperbolic, but it almost feels
like he's waiting for the astros to say one seventy
five Yeah, because he and maybe I don't know if
he wants to be here, but there's that feeling along
goes like just upgraded a little bit right or or
a lot, I don't know. But then there's that other
part of you it says he's done with it and
over it, and he's just waiting for somebody else to
be out, so he has an excuse to say, all

(01:19:07):
they paid me more, right, without making it feel like
he has to come back and like I didn't get
the offer, I'm wanting im back. I don't mean you
know what I'm saying that all these emotions kind of
run through him, I'm sure, and it obviously runs through
all of us. But if he had a better offer,
why has he not signed? Well, there's your answer. The
answer is in the question. Yeah, he doesn't. He doesn't

(01:19:27):
right exactly, or at least a really significant big offer.
They may have more money, shorter years, but he doesn't
have the long years and the bigger money that he
expected and they expected it. It's crazy. And then you
come out and say two to ten at the beginning
of this, for that amount of time and in that
thirty million range, you have set the ceiling for yourself.
Hopefully you break through it. The problem is when you

(01:19:48):
don't hit the ceiling, even if you get a lot
and you're way short on either years or money, you
feel like the negotiations came up short, and you can't
help but be a little bit disappointed going in regardless
of where you end Upyeah. Yeah, every single one of us,
in some negotiation, whether it's your job, anything, has come
up short of what we expected of. Yeah. Yeah, rarely

(01:20:08):
does it go. Man. Yeah, they offered me ten more
million than I thought, you know what I'm saying. And
in this case, he's probably it's probably a little humble
pike too, not that he not that he needed it,
but it's probably a little humble pie. We've all been there. Yeah,
especially I got a little less money involved.

Speaker 5 (01:20:25):
I mean, you got to think about early on in
this Boris was talking about, yeah, you know, championship caliber player,
blahlah blah blah, two hundred million. Well what basically it was.
It was leaked that he wonted two hundred million. And
now we're at the fact where it's pitchers and catchers
report a week from tomorrow and he is still a
free agent and the only, uh, the only offer we've

(01:20:45):
officially heard is six for one fifty six from the Astros.
Nobody else. So talking about humble pie, Yeah, you're not kidding.

Speaker 2 (01:20:54):
Yeah.

about your Houston Astros, Dan Brown, the general manager, spoke

with Joe Espada, talking about Jose al Tuve, ord On

(01:22:36):
Alvarez of course, Alex Bregman. Let's get back out to
the phone line. Smatt appreciates you call him back. What's happening.

Speaker 9 (01:22:44):
I hope my phone's line better.

Speaker 14 (01:22:45):
Hey, I man, I.

Speaker 9 (01:22:47):
Don't get it. There's there's We have had a problem
at first base forever. And I know we're just signed
Christian Walker, But isn't it am I just missing something here?
Or is is yourd On Alvarez able to play first?

Speaker 1 (01:23:03):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:23:03):
So this is you.

Speaker 5 (01:23:05):
This has been brought up quite a bit over the
last probably like year, year and a half. He's just
never going to play first base?

Speaker 2 (01:23:10):
Could he do it?

Speaker 5 (01:23:10):
I'm sure he could learn it, but they've said it
time of time again by different gms and different head
coach or a manager.

Speaker 9 (01:23:16):
Footwork or is it footwork or they just don't want
him on the field or.

Speaker 2 (01:23:20):
I think he's got footwork is the pounding it takes,
and they're paying him to hit. They're paying Let me
ask you this, man, I've always been curious because we
all think that d H should automatically be able to
play first. I'm not saying you're thinking this, but I
think we all have this sense of, oh, we can
put him at first. It's a throwaway position. It's it's
pretty it was pretty tough because he's a big body, right,

(01:23:42):
and he's and he can play left field, and I'm
sure he can play first. But let me ask you this,
if we got it for what, why do we need
him to play first? If you got one, well I didn't.

Speaker 9 (01:23:51):
I'm not I'm not saying we needed to play first,
but I know we've had that deficit at that position
for a long time and he's just been We've had
him for five, six, seven years, and I figured maybe
we could work him essentially into that position.

Speaker 2 (01:24:04):
Yeah. Well, fortunately now it's not even a concern because
Christian Walker is a good player and you got But yes,
I would imagine a guy that's versatile enough take enough
ground balls that he probably could play first. I do
you know first base is requires a lot, and even
though it may not be the pounding of a shortstop
or a center fielder or one of those, but I

(01:24:26):
get what you're saying, because like the last couple of years,
it's been a weakness and it's like, well, man, get
another bat. Let's put somebody there that we can we
can keep in a lineup that doesn't put a whole
lot of wear and tear on his body. I get it,
and I think we all get caught up. And I
know I do. Hey man, you're a left fielder of
your DH can't you play first base? But I think
it does. It's it's more demanding than I think we think.
And the fact that I'd rather have his bat for

(01:24:47):
five extra years than crowbar him into a position that
he's never really played.

Speaker 9 (01:24:52):
I just I just hate keep I mean, Christian Walker,
I think is gonna be great, but I just hate
keep throwing money at that same position.

Speaker 2 (01:25:00):
Makes sense?

Speaker 14 (01:25:04):
All right, Thank you all.

Speaker 2 (01:25:05):
I appreciate it. Matt h.

Speaker 5 (01:25:07):
Speaking of jord On Alvarez, excuse me, Joe has bought
us spoke to the media yesterday, uh in regards to
yord On Alvarez. Before we hear that audio, Sean how
many games would you play jord on a left field
this season?

Speaker 2 (01:25:26):
Well, give me the scenario. Did we bring in another outfit?
Are you talking about the current roster? Current roster, they
have an upgrade of the outfield. There's times when the catcher, meaning,
why am I losing my mind? Not Caroteni, Diz. Did

(01:25:46):
you say, Okay, I'm giving Christian Walker the day off.
We're struggling at the plate in the outfield with the bat.
Victor is gonna catch. We're gonna move Yaner to first
base or vice versa for the day. Uh, and jose
is going to play left I mean second base, Josey.

(01:26:09):
That's the time I'll give you this thirty games I
was gonna say for me, I would say five. And
that only is because Walker needs a break. You got to,
I mean, if you wanted to get both Caroteni and
the ideas is bat in the lineup and Christian Walker
and I don't want Jordan out of the lineup because
he's on fire, and I got to put him out
in left field to keep him in that I need

(01:26:31):
all the bats I can get. That's the time. You're
just not going to put him out there just for
the hell of it. Right, Here's this isn't just an
eighty ninety game, this is this is less than thirty game. Yeah,
you're not playing him half the season out there.

Speaker 5 (01:26:41):
Right, here's the manager Joe Spata on Jose al Tuove
potentially in left field and what it does to yord
On Alvarez.

Speaker 7 (01:26:49):
That's what kind of I was referring to al Tuove
playing some left. It creates us an opportunity to not
run your down out there much. Right, he is going
to play some left, But you know, I think I
shot him there fifty five games last year.

Speaker 2 (01:27:02):
I would I would like to cut that down.

Speaker 7 (01:27:04):
Because that's just a little bit way too many games.
But he's he wants to go out there, and you know,
that's always a possibility something that I always discussed with him.

Speaker 2 (01:27:16):
Depending on who we're facing that day.

Speaker 7 (01:27:18):
But if we could cut those down, and that's one
of the reasons why Hosey in left field can be
can be an option for us.

Speaker 2 (01:27:26):
Hosey's going to be an option, I do. I think
that there's always a great option, and I think it's
Hosey in left field. I do. I'd love that he
calls him Hosey what's.

Speaker 5 (01:27:35):
Up, Posey Jose Altuve playing left field, one out in
the bottom of the eighth, Hosel Josel to hose the
Hosey Altve. I think we should start calling him Hosey.
We are, we are definitely gonna do that as the
season gets gets underway. A week from tomorrow is pitchers

(01:27:56):
and catchers reporting, See you.

Speaker 2 (01:27:59):
Actually feel good about calling him Jose I mean Hosey,
al tuove. You feel good about it, Hosey Hosey. I
think we should. We will, Okay, no more jose on
the show. If the manage, if it's good enough for
the manager, it's good and good enough for us. Sam, Right,
it's Hosy er bust, Right, Yeah, it's literally Hosier bust.

Speaker 3 (01:28:20):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:28:20):
He He might be a guy that says, call me
anything you want, just don't call me late for dinner.
Could happen? Could happened? I might call him late for dinner,
but I'm gonna call him Hosey. What's up Hoosey?

Speaker 5 (01:28:29):
Speaking of dinner, let's go to the updates on your
pole hot dog cooking debate. Cut open, then fried, boiled,
microwaved on the grill, on the grill, still winning in
it seventy five point six percent.

Speaker 2 (01:28:42):
I'm shocked it's that much because the new age folk
like young folk. They don't, they don't. They've never boiled
a hot dog in their life. That's an old school
See old school got pushed aside again.

Speaker 5 (01:28:53):
Boiled is thirteen point five percent, cut open and fried
eight point six percent, and then microwave two point three percent.

Speaker 2 (01:28:59):
See to me, open and fried's the sneaky winner in
my and I love the grill them I spend. I'm
I'm about the percentage about eighty to eighty percent of
the time I'm grilling them. But I'm just telling you
underrated is a good fried hot dog cut open in
the middle.

Speaker 5 (01:29:12):
Yeah, how many votes are in? Votes that are in
right now? Five hundred and thirteen. You got twenty three
hours left to vote. Check it out at Sean unfiltered
on Twitter. Some guy named Sicka Foo's on Twitter. Uh
he said anyone that voted boiled should be unfollowed his

(01:29:32):
bio Redskins fan and horse lover. There you go, Yeah,
Washington sports fan living in Texas and Oklahoma.

Speaker 2 (01:29:39):
Okay, all right, rescue, I knew grilled was gonna win.
I probably shouldn't take that. And if you're taking it off,
you know what they'd all said, you got to what
about the war there? Yeah, man, don't you right? Of
course it was gonna win. Yeah, blows? That does blow?

Speaker 7 (01:29:57):
Man?

Speaker 2 (01:29:57):
That's lame, dude.

Speaker 5 (01:29:58):
Uh, five hundred and twenty seven votes in now he
just had fourteen more votes in the last minute pole
question up at sewn unfiltered? Hey, question as we go
on to the next segment, is this is a tease?
Dana Brown also spoke about Louis Garcia. Louis Garcia still
hasn't thrown off of a mount he was shut down

(01:30:20):
six months ago.

Speaker 2 (01:30:21):
What's going on with lou What the hell is going
on with Louis Garcia? I have zero idea. It's a
bit surprising to me. I just tells me, I'm a
little nervous again when spring training starts about the delays
of this bothers me.

Speaker 5 (01:30:35):
I got an idea for you? What could be going
on with Louis Carcia? What'll discussing next?

Speaker 4 (01:30:41):
The Shawn Salisbury Show continues and no, Now.

Speaker 3 (01:30:45):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
My guy who sings, uh, there's a rumor going Lee Bryce, Yeah,
Lee Bryce, that's a good cut. He was talking on
the radio today talking about he's stilled gets no no,
maybe he still gets don't finish my sentence. He still

(01:31:08):
gets like nervous around. They were talking about awards shows
and he said, the only reason I like award shows
is it's like getting to see your buddies you don't
get to see for the year because we're out out
on tour and you don't get to see him. And
he goes. When you go there, it's like it's like
almost a reunion, you know, but your buddies are there
and you get to you know, laugh and joke and
he goes into your room and he goes, but I

(01:31:28):
still get starstruck and nervous.

Speaker 1 (01:31:30):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:31:31):
He goes and he says, sweetheart of a man. He
hadn't mentioned his name, and I knew where he was going.
He goes, but man, it's like when you're you're around him,
it's country royalty. And he goes, and I'm still and
this is Lee. Bryce is pretty good himself, but he's
he's like, I'm still like really nervous around, starstruck and
nervous around George Strait. And I can't blame because he

(01:31:54):
said he's a magnet man. He goes. When you when
you walk into a room and George Strait's there, it's
like everybody wants to be around George. It's it's like
going into your profession and whoever the biggest dog on
the on the property is, that's where you're headed. And
he said, oh my gosh, it's nothing intimidated. He's a
sweet he's that, he's a sweetheart of a man. But

(01:32:14):
it's still George George.

Speaker 5 (01:32:16):
And what's crazy with all that even being said, is
is George Strait's music isn't even as good as Beyonce's
country music.

Speaker 2 (01:32:22):
Well, who nobody was this year, not a soul, not
a soul, not a soul in the country music industry
had an album better than hers, they said's what they
told us. Uh okay, both of you guys. Yes, the
I don't care what what they gotta be alive, can't

(01:32:44):
be dead. You can go visit there, great, but can't
be dead. I don't care what. Somebody we may know,
some kind of public persona a person the sports entertainer,
I don't care. Who's that one per you show up
at a party that you're around him in the circle
and you're like, uh, this is that you're still you're

(01:33:08):
I mean not you're not ball washing it. But like
like Lee Brice said about George Strait, where you get
around him and you're like almost to the point you're
not real sure what to say, and have you met
that person yet? Never? And I'm not talking about it.
I'm not talking about where you're like physically a tree.
You see some woman's like she's a twelve and you
think she's hot. I'm told it could be a woman.

(01:33:30):
But like in the past, and while you know, sex
appeal and all that's fine, if you said, Sean go back,
I would be if it was somebody who wasn't alive,
Marilynd Winroe would be if you're going fit for me,
be like all this you know the story value, It'd
be like, dude, that's that's Marilyn Monroe. Yeah, I'm talking
about a magnet, right, Yeah, I would think that that

(01:33:50):
would be it. But Kurt who would have been athlete,
anybody that you walk in the room, you're like, uh,
you're starstruck and you're nervous around and you're like, I
don't know, I wouldn't know what to say.

Speaker 5 (01:34:01):
Yeah, I think for me, like guys that I had,
people that I haven't met that I would be like starstruck,
probably Tiger Woods and Tom Brady.

Speaker 2 (01:34:14):
Isn't it so weird?

Speaker 5 (01:34:15):
But then I feel like where they're at in their
careers now, since they're not playing well Tigers are still
playing somewhat, I feel like they're guys guys now, but
like in the in the in the height of their
well because you're a different personality from both so and
then I and then one of the guys that I've
met and I've I've never i've been at, I'll say
it's Justin Verlander, Like Justin Verlander. I've been a fan
of him. I've never been like, oh my god, I
got to meet Justin Verlander. But I've had the privilege

(01:34:38):
of being around him a lot of times in the clubhouse. Dude,
I had to ask him a question one time, and
I asked the question about he gave up a solo
home run. He missed the location and it like you know,
in the Crawford boxes. I'm talking it was like if
it's three hundred foot of left field, it was a
three hundred and one foot home run right. And he
had a pattern of doing this, so I asked him

(01:34:58):
like changing up sequences. I'm know, if you've ever interviewed
Justin Verlander, been around, he's got these big beady eyes
and it like it's like, whoa dude is This dude
pissed off you a little nervous. I was very, very
nervous to interview him, and I'm never liked that. So
for me being around Justin Verlander, just because of how
much of a professional he is, because you got guys
that are like Lou even hose Out too, with all

(01:35:19):
his greatness, He's just a normal guy. Alex Bregman, the
same way. Kyle Tucker was awesome to talk to Justin Verlander.
Dude like I didn't want to even approach him, honestly. Yeah,
that's just because of of what what he carries, and
that's just professionalist. I interview the guys I've interviewed. When
I interviewed Stan Musual for the first time, it was

(01:35:39):
I was nervous. He was in person too, it wasn't
on a fuzzy and I was, you know, Diehard. I
know more about baseball history in my life than I
do NFL history, which is weird, but I just grew
up that's what I grew up with, and I was
I was a complete gentleman, but I was good to think.
And Keith Jackson and Pat Summer All both too, the
voice of NFL and the voice of Engall in the

(01:36:00):
voice of college football.

Speaker 2 (01:36:02):
Keith Jackson made it and so did summer All. Some
are all played along when I asked him to do
I think I've told you this when I asked him
to do murder and he did it, and I was like,
I can't, and my partner saying, who'd been in the business,
like forty years in damn right? I mean he started laughing,
and Keith Jackson just got into Keith, what all your
years on the road was like you started talking about
the popcorn in Iowa in the press box in Iowa.

(01:36:24):
He said, it's the best popcorn in the country. Just
little things in the voice, right, And so it was
the nervous to interview with those guys, And don't get
it there still some might be nervous to interview outside
of sports. But I think that's interesting because it's weird
how you see it and how I see you know,
somebody may see Verlander how you saw it different, and
like Brady and I've been fortunate in my profession and

(01:36:45):
having started as a player year around guys that did
everybody else, and you just look at him as guys
because you're fortunate to be in it right as an
athlete wise, And I remember when I was around Brady
and I interviewed him with a one on one and
he was in the height of doing his thing, and
he was phenomenal, So I wasn't real nervous, and maybe
four Super Bowls later had been but I'd been in

(01:37:05):
my business longer and he'd been in his right. And
then I was fortunate. With Charles and Tiger Woods and
a couple others. We were at a shoot and pull
at a bar together. It was just normal dude, right,
matter of fact. It was unassuming and it was really cool.
But you're thinking, this is that's pretty Tiger Woods, and
so the perspective of it, I'm still trying to think
right now. I've interviewed Abdul Jabbar and he's tough questions man,

(01:37:30):
but he'll answer him. But you gotta work your way
around abdils because he is brilliant. His mind is brilliant.
Bill Walton was awesome, but he's waiting because I literally
could I asked one question in twelve minutes later. Bill
Walton's still talking about but he pontificated, right, but I'm
thinking to current people right now, and there's a lot
of I'll tell you for me. And when it was
sidelines the Ohio State SC game, Denzel Washington, now he

(01:37:54):
was fortunately it wasn't just me, and I was standing
with a couple of former the guys that had met
him before, right, they knew him from because they were
bigger celebrities. It was like Sesame Street. One of these
things is not like the other. And he was as
cool as hell. But I actually had it like which
is typical to me, I said, he finished an answer.
At the end. We were he was just talking casual
because he was at the game too and a big

(01:38:15):
football fan. And dude that that sideline might have well
have been an award show. I'm talking about PGA golf
people that had no affiliation with SC or Ohio State.
It was when the liner was there and that group
at Ohio State were at the game. Henry Winkler, who's
an SC game I know Fonzarelli all the way to
Denzel Washington, to Amar Stotdemeyer Isaiah to what are you

(01:38:36):
guys doing here? I mean Markomir the golfer was there,
but his daughter was a cheerleader at the time at
SC so all these things in. Denzel's there and he
comes over during pregame morning but our sidelines and I'm
standing with Marcus Allen and I can't remember who else,
and Denzel's He's walking over and I'm thinking, I ain't
leave him from this one. Yeah, which one of these
things is not like the other three Hall of Famers
and the greatest actor on the planet and me and

(01:38:59):
I'm like, yeahh but he's running typical of be I said,
you know, you start to go a talk, I said,
he said something. It was really somebody asked him a question.
We were laughing. Have a good time a go mom man,
you know, he said, and to use his phrase for him,
and he started laughing and was nothing but gracious and awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:39:16):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (01:39:16):
You know, off the top of my head, I've had
the pleasure of interviewing Jim Crane, owner of the Astros.

Speaker 2 (01:39:21):
Yep, he was. It was him and his wife, right,
and uh, there are some people out there that are
just bigger than life. Yeah, he was. He was intimidating
to say the least. Ye oh, I get it. But
the interview I still it's up on YouTube. I could
go find it.

Speaker 5 (01:39:34):
It was on the Red car but at the Houston
Sports Wards a couple of years ago, and U my
co host or yeah, Des and I we we got
to interview him, and we got to light him up
a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:39:43):
Like got lighting him up a little bit.

Speaker 5 (01:39:44):
We asked about Division two baseball because every weekend or
every February, I think they just had it.

Speaker 2 (01:39:50):
His alma mater.

Speaker 5 (01:39:51):
He put together a D two college baseball tournament at
Minute May Park and they come every single year. Oh yeah,
I played Division three. DES played nai A. So we
talked to him about that. Do he lit up like
because nobody ever asked him about it? Right, That's what
I was trying to do in an interview. Ask him
something different, not the standard how you feeling you pumped
about this? No, ask him something different, and dude, it

(01:40:12):
made the interview so much easier. But the the greatness
that people carry in that profession, whether it's sports, acting,
whatever the case is, you can feel it, dude, like
you know this, I'm not saying anything you don't know,
but like just the way that they carry themselves, Like
if you're not prepared.

Speaker 2 (01:40:30):
And you're not confident what you're doing, I'll find your weakness.
They're gonna eat you a lot, there's no doubt. And
and the truth is most of them are really cool.
They're looking for something like that. I remember my first
week at ESPN, I had an executive come up to
me and say, tell me something I don't know and
carry that carries over to the interviews, right, you want
to I mean, why ask somebody something that's been asked
four hundreds. I know you want an answer if the

(01:40:51):
ANSWER's changed or if the situation's changed. But the deep
dive is I need to find out something about this
dude that nobody else knows because there are people that
are listening. And then you'll run into the and it's
it's ironic too, but there are so For me, it
was Denzel still made me nervous, and I guess I
would probably be Clint Eastwood, even though he's old school now,
and I mean, these guys, when you're around him, eventually
realized they're no different than we are. Right most of

(01:41:12):
the time. I just like when the first time I
was around sandlor Do. I was like, this is so
out of my element. Yet five minutes into it, I
felt like, this is my element. He's It's that we're
afraid to go to them. They're not afraid to do it.
It's just they're so busy. We think they don't have
time for this. Yet they're looking for Jim Crane's laughs
on something you didn't get to talk about very much.
Karl Malone, Now, Calarl Malone, we had the same agent.

(01:41:35):
I remember the first time at Carmelone when I come
out of school. We went out and had some study.
He was phenomenal guy. But Carl Malone's serious now and
if you dude, I had him on about a decade
ago and Carl, Carl, come on, but dude, he's not.
He doesn't matter who the interview is. I asked him
about the players now and the players when he played.

(01:41:56):
Carl said, Sean, what the are you seriou? And I
thought he was joking for a second. He goes, are
you seriously asking me this? My all star our team?
My all star team are five guys versus grabbing the
five guys now, dude. He was pissed, and I know him.
We're the same agent and we'd been around each other. Dude,
he it was as if Karl alone on that question

(01:42:18):
and I asked it for I asked it for that response,
and I was prepared for but it was even harsher.
He was pissed. It was almost like he to the
point where how dare you offend me? It was almost
like he took it like you were you were doing
it to him. He took just the rest of the interview.
But I thought he gonna hang up. I thought, this
dude is gonna hang up and I know it and
he won't won't care. Dude, he was, I'm telling he was.

(01:42:40):
He was. If he just if he was doing the
interview in person, he'd have he would have been. You
would have seen he was visibly up. I can't because
I could tell in his voice and there was no
aw sean I'm just playing. He wasn't playing. And it's
like he took and he was like, almost, how dare
you ask me that? Hence why I needed to ask, right, yeah, exactly.

(01:43:00):
As an interviewer, you just got to be willing to
take the the when they're pissed for you asking, oh, well,
all's you got to do is say I'm not answering that.
I can't believe you asked me that, or delve in
and do what you did. Yeah, how dare you? Sean?
But I'm gonna tell you why you know the answer
and like you know the answer that why you asking
me that? Yeah? And I really didn't know his answer,
but he won't plan so, but there is that, there

(01:43:21):
is that feeling of there are those guys that still
and it's not fanboy. It's like it's almost a respectful Yeah,
that's that's why I respectful. It's a big respect There's
no question about it. Seven one, seven ninety is the
number to join. We will roll along right here on
seven ninety, The Sewan Salisbury Show continued. I just relay

(01:43:42):
the notes.

Speaker 17 (01:43:42):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:43:43):
We probably need to send a message to our guy
just to find out to make sure because I don't
have any press release on if he's representing anything to you.

Speaker 5 (01:43:51):
I will ask right now. There you go notes for
co Sar. We'll see, Uh, we'll see that's coming up
at nine thirty. Excuse me, uh talking to Bernie Costar.
All right, so let's hear from general manager Dana Brown,
Lance Pacolous junior Luis Garcia. Are they gonna be back
by the start of the season. Here's Dana Brown.

Speaker 11 (01:44:13):
I'm really fired up about Lance. I mean, you know,
he's throwing some sides. He feels really good.

Speaker 3 (01:44:19):
He's throwing.

Speaker 11 (01:44:20):
He's up to ninety Uh. You know, there's no discomfort,
no pain, and so we're fired up about what he's
gonna look like this spring. And we just get we
gotta you know, we gotta temper it a little bit
and you know, let it play out. But we were
definitely excited about how Lance looks. And as far as Garcia,
he's thronging flat round with no issues.

Speaker 3 (01:44:40):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (01:44:41):
No need to you know, rush him because you know,
our starting five is strong. But you know, we'll allow
him to build up, uh in the right way so
we can prevent any injuries.

Speaker 2 (01:44:52):
All right.

Speaker 5 (01:44:53):
So I got a couple of things here, Sean, excuse me,
excuse me again? My goodness, how'd that flem taste?

Speaker 12 (01:45:00):
Ah?

Speaker 17 (01:45:00):
Not good?

Speaker 2 (01:45:01):
Still just lingers, dude, it's terrible, man. You can take
all the drugs you want, you know, from the doctor. Yeah,
and it thinks I mean, it's it's that that flagem
you have, you know. Yeah, if you call fgem right, Yeah,
a little flemy flem Yeah, that'll stop you.

Speaker 5 (01:45:16):
Luis Garcia was reportedly going to be back last season,
but he was shut down in August. Had got some
inflammation pop up, so they said, you know what, not
no point and try to get you back.

Speaker 2 (01:45:26):
We'll just shut you down. No rush. Six months ago,
six months ago, and you still haven't thrown off of
a mound. You heard Dana Brown, Lance Pacola junior back
thrown off of a mound. He's throw throwing side bullpens
now up to ninety miles an hour. Luis Garcia, what
the hell are you doing?

Speaker 16 (01:45:43):
You know what it is?

Speaker 2 (01:45:44):
And I said this about Christian Hobvier two years ago.
You think he's fat. He's fat, He's fat and out
of shape. And I'm being dead serious. I'm not no
tongue in cheek here. Louis Garcia is fat, lazy and
out of shape. That's why he hasn't thrown off of
a mound. Yet you think it's with an F no, yes,
so you think it's for the F yes? Okay, My

(01:46:07):
question is and Dana, one thing we know about the
Astros when it comes to injuries is that they're always
gonna we're not rushing.

Speaker 5 (01:46:13):
Put it see that way. Christan Havier is making better
progress than the UIs Garcia. He uploaded a video yesterday
of him throwing flat grounds.

Speaker 2 (01:46:19):
Why are why is this taking so long? That's what
my fat fact. Yes, it's gotta be. It's gotta be
with a pH yeh no, with a F I got
you to get you. How are you a big leaguer?
You got shut down six months ago? Not from anything
that popped in the elbow again, nothing shoulder related. Maybe
a little bit of information which you know is gonna
happen six months ago. Dog, how are you not thrown

(01:46:42):
off of a mound?

Speaker 7 (01:46:43):
Yet?

Speaker 2 (01:46:43):
It makes you start to wonder, Okay, what is your
off season approach? Is it a setback?

Speaker 6 (01:46:47):
See?

Speaker 2 (01:46:47):
When I get into spring training and they still haven't
thrown off mountain? When do you expect him back? And
then I know Dana is saying, hey, we've got we've
got a good five right now? Or so you don't
you the rushing? We don't need to rush him, but
you're you're an injury away from needing to rush him
right or two right? So my thing is I've never
I I know everybody's everybody, but everybody is different on
how it recovers. I just ta, you know how I

(01:47:11):
feel about not Russian not throwing off a mound yet,
tells me July.

Speaker 5 (01:47:15):
Right, minimum, dude, it's it's pictures and catchers report a
week from tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (01:47:21):
Hey, listen, we're not going to rush him back. Now
he's playing. We're not going to rush him back. But
now he's playing in Chicago and he's playing right field
for the Cubs. Remember that guy, I remember that guy Bons.
So my thing is and I'm not This isn't negative, Nelly,
It's just wondering when I start to hear this this
close to spring training. I actually thought June that we'd

(01:47:43):
be seeing Garcia at the latest. Right for mcculors and Garcia,
I thought, may ye at the latest, I said the latest, right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
And here we are. If he's not throwing off a
mound yet and pitchers and catchers report next week, how
are you going to see him before June? You're not.
You're not because he's going to miss his ramp up,

(01:48:03):
the spring training part of it. So when he gets
to throwing off a mound and stays down in Florida
or whatever it is, and then he gets there, then
he's gonna have to have his time, and then he's
gonna come up here and get some minor league work.
How are you seeing him before the All Star Wars?
You're not, You're not. I'm also I'm now to the
point with injuries, just with the franchise here, I'm always

(01:48:24):
now airing on the side of if they say one thing,
talk to me six weeks to two months later. Yeah,
because I have yet the only guy that came back
quicker than we thought that I can remember, and there's
probably been moreag went went out to bag. Remember we're
supposed to be had a little longer with one of
his injuries and came back quicker. But as far as

(01:48:45):
picture goes, when's the last time a pictuer came back
earlier than you expected for this team? Yeah, it hasn't.
It's been longer every time. So, hey, throwing, if you're
thrown on flat ground yet and you're not throwing off
a mound, I he ain't making a start before middle
of June. So what are you doing in your off season.

Speaker 16 (01:49:02):
Or or what is what?

Speaker 2 (01:49:04):
What is it about your body that heals a lot slower.
Of all the injuries, I thought his was the most recoupable.
Quick did I recoverable? Yeah? But maybe I'm not a doctor.
Hell I wouldn't know, but I know that threshold of
pain comes into play. But good gracious man, I have
no idea. You're contending that it's it's fat with an F.

(01:49:26):
That's who you're going with. Okay, And and but after
the Christian Javier talk when you said it, there was
talk that he needed and he even it didn't even
far that they need to lose weight. Remember moving when
it went on, he was out of shape. We were
I was saying me personally.

Speaker 5 (01:49:39):
I was saying it after we saw him struggle time
in and time out, time in and time out, mechanics
were off, fastball didn't have the jump that it usually did.

Speaker 2 (01:49:46):
And I said, he looks out of shape, he looks fat,
and what it? By God? He was next thing, you know,
Tommy John.

Speaker 5 (01:49:53):
And all of a sudden we're thinking and hearing, Oh,
he's gonna he's gonna be losing some weight. Can he
get himself into better shape and come back from the
UCL surgery?

Speaker 2 (01:50:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:50:02):
What do we expect from forced Whitley this year excuse me. Gosh, dang,
and I thought I had that. I thought I hit
the mic man. My bad to that again. You're gonna
have to expect a lot from him. He's gonna have
to be in the bullpen. You have to have him
in the bullpen. Ryan Pressy's not here anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:50:18):
It's been a long run. What a gentleman, A good
what a good dude. Ryan Presley always was and a
good picture.

Speaker 5 (01:50:24):
He took out an ad in the Houston Chronicle class
and thanked all of the fans.

Speaker 2 (01:50:30):
My guy, Mattress Mack was talking about just what a
phenomenal human being here and in his family. He was
at the place they go to, you know, workout or
the family with over there the West Side area. He
just he said, he's phenomenally he is, He's awesome, and
I've never met him in person, but he sure felt
like that. I hate to see him go. I mean,
I understand why, but then I digress. But I always

(01:50:52):
like to point out the good stuff and guys, because
he was nothing but class here didn't and didn't end
the way he wanted it to here. But yeah, man,
I I just I'd be the whole fat and out
of shape. I don't know how you let that happen
in a rehab thing. I would be here. Almost feels
like you're saying I got to My job is precious
at this point. And if they get five stars and

(01:51:13):
you know what, now, by not being on time, guess
what happens? You've given an opera. You You've left your
glove on the mound for the five guys to dominate starters,
and you not to get a starting rotation job. Back?
Am I right or wrong?

Speaker 5 (01:51:25):
You're right to put his seat this way for Luis Corsia.
He had Tommy John surgery in May of twenty twenty three,
and you're not gonna see him before maya twenty twenty five,
two years almost two years ago. What do we got
going on here?

Speaker 2 (01:51:41):
Man? I have no idea. I wish I could answer that.
What what are we doing? Damn mouse, Jim, I'm a doctor,
not a doctor.

Speaker 5 (01:51:51):
Seven one, three, two two five seven ninety is the
number two joint Sean, What do you know about aircraft carriers?

Speaker 2 (01:51:57):
I don't, and I know a lot about them.

Speaker 6 (01:51:59):
You do.

I'm from San Diego, remember that. Yeah, a lot of seals.
But I also you know anything about surt of Pro.

Speaker 5 (01:52:06):
Well before yeah, Dale guy over there, Dana Brown talked
about an aircraft carrier.

Speaker 2 (01:52:10):
There's your teas well. There's a good center in the
NBA too that we used to call. It's an aircraft carrier,
a big center in the end. I mean you can,
David Robinson, No, but you could be an air You

sort of Pro did at my home. And I'm so
grateful for them. Sortapro dot com for your free estimate.
Every single sort of Pro business is individually owned and operated.

(01:52:58):
It's boutique. When you say that you say, what does
that mean? Sean. To me, boutique means small enough to
give you the attention you deserve, undivided and quality work,
big enough to cover whatever you needed your home or business.
And that's what they got. And cert of Pro Painters
is there for you. They're the official painting partner of
the Houston Astros. And I can tell you this, it's
sort of with the Sea. You know what it is,

(01:53:18):
sort of pro painters. Your home's expensive, your business is expensive,
costs a lot of money. Why in the hell wouldn't
you want to protect it with quality painting, quality people
who are local, timely, and treat it like it's their own.
I know one thing. If that's who I'm going to
do business with, that's the way I want it done.

(01:53:38):
Trust is big, qualities just as big. And when you
get both, you get curt of pro sort of pro painters.
Sort of with the Sea sertopro dot com for that
free estimate. So grateful for them. Sort of pro painters
and they'll always do this. That's painting happy. Going non
stop around with former QB John Salisbury. He is the

(01:54:04):
astros number one prospect.

Speaker 5 (01:54:06):
Dana Brown said, quote, I think he has a chance
to be an aircraft carrier end quote.

Speaker 2 (01:54:15):
I like that quote. That's that's high praise. Man, you
don't like it. I'm about it A little interesting aircraft carrier, Okay,
I mean you never do. That's big. That means your
your aircraft carrier. Got a lot of technology on it too.
He's sixty three twenty five, which that means he can

(01:54:39):
hit it a long way too. He's only twenty one
years old. Yeap h, I like it place third base.

Speaker 3 (01:54:47):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:54:47):
Dana Brown also mentioned that he's not opposed to maybe
getting him some run in the outfield. I would assume
that he's going to start in double A this year.
He's only made it to a high A in his
career for the Cubs, but he's They are very very

(01:55:09):
high on him. He was unbelievable at Florida State. He
had three eighty seven is uh excuse me? His final
year there, one hundred and four hits sixteen bombs fifty
seven RBIs an ops of one thousand and eleven eleven
forty two.

Speaker 2 (01:55:27):
Is his ops. Yeah. He can slug cheese, man, he is.
He can rate dude. Yeah. So and you know what
and you talk about in no rush with parades. There
is no rush. If he's going to be a third baseman. Yeah,
and if he's going to be a you know, an outfielder,
well then you got time. But six three two twenty five.

(01:55:49):
Let's put together. So aircraft carrier is nice. They got
to put it this way. Aircraft carriers also have long range, right,
and if that baseball goes as far as an aircraft
carrier's range, guess what you're in pretty good shape. Would
you land on him on the aircraft carrier? Yeah, the
aircraft carry That's what I'm in. Yeah, yeah, Yeah, when

(01:56:10):
I land on Will Smith, probably not Will Smith, I
mean not Will Smith. Cam Smith. Yeah, good putter too.
Cam Smith is yeah, really good, really good putter. Yeah,
he is a health real versatile talking about Bandwidthe guy
can putt, guy can win tournaments. And guess what else
a guy can do? You can hit a baseball. So
what did I think of the Cam Smith Wilson? Yes,

(01:56:33):
Cam Smith is a No, he obviously comes highly regarded Smith.
I wouldn't land on that.

Speaker 5 (01:56:38):
You wouldn't land on Will Smith, but you'd land on
Cam Smith maybe the baseball player.

Speaker 2 (01:56:43):
Yeah, no, because if I landed on Will Smith. He'd
tried to slap me and then I have to beat
his brains in. So because I wouldn't be as kind
his wife, I wouldn't be as kind as the ISU.
The gentleman is as Chris Rock if it came for that.
Can you imagine him rolling up trying to Will Smith. No, No,

(01:57:05):
I'd hit him so hard he would have knocked his
wife's hair off. Well, but that's okay, because things happened, man,
things happened. But camp Smith the putter's good, and Camp
Smith the prospect seems to be really good aircraft carrier type. Yeah, yeah,
I like that though. That's right. Praise man. I know
it is real quick.

Speaker 5 (01:57:26):
I know we're going to turn our attention to the
Houston Texans at nine o'clock. But there's some news out
of the Chicago Cubs. A couple of their reporters up there.
Sources have now confirmed that the Cubs have offered Alex
Bregman a four year contract with opt outs just north
of one hundred million dollars. So what I would assume
is we can sit here and divide that by four.

(01:57:47):
That's twenty five a year. But I wouldn't be surprised
if they had it loaded in the front end for.

Speaker 2 (01:57:52):
Him, and then you're gonna allow him to turn and
walk on you if he has a big ear. Yeah.
I just don't get it. Yeah, I'd tease you with
the good time and then take the good time elsewhere.
Yeah yeah, okay, good side. If you can get the
opt out, great on you ask for it. Yeah, I

(01:58:13):
ain't giving it ever never, there's no no players get it.
If I love you, I'm paying you. I want to
keep you now. I may give you in an eight year,
nine year contract. If you're thirty, I may give you
an opt out four or five years in Why because
I may not want your ass anymore. Yeah, but I
just it makes no sense. Come here, get a couple
of years of big money, or if it's after one year,

(01:58:36):
if it becomes that, come here rake and then go
get yourself thirty five million a year next year. Come on, son,
Why I don't get that approach. I don't either, man,
I don't. And why are we doing it to the NFL?
Hey mahomes hey, Josh Allen, We're gonna sign you to
do a new contract. Oh cool, Yeah, yeah, we'll pay
all this money, pay you seventy million a year. And

(01:58:56):
you know what, dude, if you go win the MVP
the next year, go ahead and leave the one thing
the NFL front offices do get. You don't get d
opped out. Dude, You're opting in. That's why I'm giving
you all this guaranteed money. Yeah, the only opt out
to the Cleveland Browns, which they had, they wish they
could opt out of Watson's contract. I assure you, Oh yeah.
I wonder if Bernie Cozar feels the same way. You

(01:59:18):
can ask him. I sure as hell am. That's coming
up at nine to thirty.

Speaker 5 (01:59:20):
You're not gonna want to miss that interview coming up
next here on the Sean Salisbury Show. As we get
into the final hour here on a Western Wednesday, the

let's do this. Shawn Salisbury, there to usc truth.

Speaker 3 (02:01:13):
Longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

Speaker 4 (02:01:14):
Brian Lima, go Lobo. This is the Sewn Salsbury Show.

Speaker 5 (02:01:22):
They gave up six points in nine seconds to lose
the ball game. Yeah, you heard me correctly, six points
in the final nine seconds and they lose to the Nets.
They've dropped four and row. They got to figure it out. Cougars.
They beat Oklahoma State. We're gonna talk some Texans. They
have a new offensive line coach. A lot of guys

(02:01:44):
on the phone. Seven one, three, seven ninety is the
number to join in order of longest wait. John, appreciate
you hold buddy, Good morning, hey man.

Speaker 2 (02:01:53):
You have doing this one?

Speaker 14 (02:01:55):
Yeah, man on the the Texans, if I remember correctly,
they they let going two or three offensive line coaches. Okay,
and this new OC they brought in then they gave
Papa Bitch a move up. So now, obviously they must
have thought that the guys that they let go, along
with Bobby Sloyd, that's where the problem was for them

(02:02:18):
to bring in this new OC and give Papa Bitch
a move up, so they would still have to hire
what maybe two or three more offensive line coaches.

Speaker 5 (02:02:28):
So John, they they let go of the offensive line
coach and then they let the contracts expire of two
offensive assistants. And so what we're actually going to discuss
this segment is the new offensive line coach and then
he has free reign to hire his staff, meaning Nick
Cayley the new offensive coordinator. So yeah, I would assume

(02:02:48):
and Drad Johnson is going to stay with the Texans,
So there's a QB coach. So I would assume that
there's gonna be any changes. It's gonna be up to
Nick Kayley the new offensive coordinator.

Speaker 2 (02:02:57):
Okay, as it should be. It's the way it should be.
He's the one in charge when it comes to the offense.

Speaker 5 (02:03:04):
Appreciation as always, John, thank you man, So Josh, talk
to Big Jay. It's a Big Jay popping.

Speaker 11 (02:03:11):

instead of wanting six. He's gonna be blocking all the
future astros.

Speaker 14 (02:13:59):
Uh.

Speaker 17 (02:14:00):
That super stud that you were talking about that they
got from the cups, that's.

A lot of the Descenzo.

Speaker 2 (02:14:13):
I mean already.

Speaker 1 (02:14:15):
I mean you can't just I mean, I could see another.

Speaker 6 (02:14:18):
Couple of years, two three, not a six year.

Speaker 1 (02:14:23):
Six years is too much.

Speaker 17 (02:14:24):
You don't know, he's not going to be playing as good.
I don't even think the two by contract. I think
he's going to go and decline in three or four years.

Speaker 2 (02:14:34):
Oh whoa, whoa, Well that's well, but decline, but really
decline in three or four years. He's got him in
like thirty six, thirty seven. What's about the nice career anyway? Hopefully,
I know, usually five years.

Speaker 17 (02:14:48):
I mean it might be a tad little bit too much,
but I might be wrong, but you could be playing
one more thing.

Speaker 2 (02:14:54):
Harry Bradley got ten seconds, okay.

Speaker 17 (02:14:56):
Presley, why couldn't they have gotten one more level minor leaguer,
I mean one the guy's been. I'm just because he
didn't have the greatest of the years.

Speaker 2 (02:15:07):
He's not necessarily the car was all. I gotta let
you go, Brad. I appreciate it. We're all like it.
And I think I think Brian Presley do a good
job in Chicago. He will I do. Being back in
the closest spot. You bet all right.

Speaker 5 (02:15:18):
We're gonna welcome in former NFL quarterback Bernie co Sar.

Speaker 4 (02:15:21):
Next, we're valued for the Sean Salisbury show continued, National champion,
done it all, my guy, Bernie Coles are Bernie, welcome
in Man, been too.

Speaker 2 (02:15:33):
Long, brother Sewan here, Hey.

Speaker 6 (02:15:34):
Sean, what a great surprise here, brother, Good morning to you,
Good morning to you too.

Speaker 2 (02:15:39):
It's still always a great surprise and great insight to
have you on. Let me start here. I want to
dive into some serious football stuff and some laughs too.
You're the general manager of an NFL team and we're
drafting a quarterback and or we're trading for one. What
are we looking for first?

Speaker 6 (02:15:58):
So I uh, I pride myself on being a cerebral
ex quarterback and stuff, and I plaguiar eyes a lot
of my information currently from the great Sean Salisbury. So
I really, if I could have got to the question first,
would have.

Speaker 2 (02:16:14):
Asked you that.

Speaker 15 (02:16:15):
Brother.

Speaker 6 (02:16:16):
But one of the things that you know, I think
some of us old school guys kind of believe in
and we've really seen over time is having the leadership
for sure, having us the confidence I got asshure it
on today. You matter and I'm not doing that. You
matter because of the hurricanes and that, but self confidence,

(02:16:36):
self belief, telling people that they matter, that quarterback, understanding
that he matters, understanding him, truly believing that he's the guy.
And then we are victims are beneficiary, Sean and the
guys around us, just like in life. So having a
team you know, and a system that fits what you're
going to be doing. And we've you and me have

(02:16:58):
watched more quarterbacks kind of get ruined early in drafts
and early in careers because the systems and the players
around them don't match up to maybe what their skill
set or their leadership or their belief in themself. So
it's a fine it's a fine recipe to kind of
put things together with four or five of those components

(02:17:20):
to hope to get out that franchise quarterback and hopefully
get another CJ.

Speaker 2 (02:17:25):
Stroud. There you go, And he's specially and Bernie, you
and I played in the same era and you talked
about priding yourself on being the cerebral part of it,
and everybody knew you as a guy who knew where
to throw it and why you were throwing it there.
And now we're in and I love some spread open
all I like some new age stuff too mixed with
old school. Are we doing our quarterbacks to this service

(02:17:47):
by taking the decision making process at the line of
scrimmage pre snap? Are we doing a service by taking
it out of their hands? Would you? I know you
had a lot put on you mentally as a quarterback.
Is that an advantage?

Speaker 7 (02:17:59):
Or so?

Speaker 6 (02:18:02):
I go to the old school belief and the way
we were raised that we have the responsibility and had
to know the exers and o's and wanted that responsibility
out there. And I did struggle with that transition from
being able to call the plays yourself and not have
voices in your head to having voices and talking in

(02:18:24):
your head with that and that's actually sometimes a little
was disruptive, and I think could be disruptive to younger quarterbacks.
And I really would like to see more of that
comprehensive all twenty two coaching, where the quarterback has the
responsibility and really is the field general, understanding everything that's

(02:18:47):
going around him from the exors and o's component.

Speaker 2 (02:18:50):
Bernie Cozar seventeen years in the NFL Pro bowler was
on a Super Bowl team, National Championship team, and I
think all of us old school would realize that he's
one of the more rebel bright minds that ever played
the position. Bernie, you mentioned CJ. Stroud, and I know
you've seen plenty of him. Have we even scratched the
surface of how good the guy can be?

Speaker 6 (02:19:13):
No, No, that that's the scary thing for the rest
of the league and the positive thing for your Texan fans,
and that is he's still blossoming, He's still growing and
to see to see the just the pure athleticism, the
pure touch, the pure confidence, the pure accuracy that he's throwing.

(02:19:36):
I know there was a bump statistically in the road
this year, but again here here we're talking about two
years in a row. Now he's been a playoff quarterback,
the team's been a playoff quarterback.

Speaker 14 (02:19:48):
I believe.

Speaker 6 (02:19:49):
I believe that the mixture of what the system you know,
was trying to be the first couple of years. And
you kind of talked about it too in the previous
question about for young quarterbacks and maybe what you're looking
for or how to make them successful. But I made
a mistake at the end of my career. I thought
I had to be cool. I thought I had to

(02:20:10):
be in shotgun all the time, I thought I had
to be calling the plays. Spread everybody out, and and
and and make downfield throws and there is no shame
and no no nothing that makes you feel bad by
running the ball, play action, using using the tight end,

(02:20:31):
or using a second back in there to block and stuff.
And Texans kind of implemented some of that, and I
believe that's the type of stuff that CD Stroud, with
his athleticism and his anticipation on some of those over
type throws that you could get off of the play
action game. I think he could. He's gonna keep getting

(02:20:52):
even more special with the way the team plays all
three phases of the game.

Speaker 2 (02:20:57):
He throws that intermediate ball at midle of the ball
about as good as anybody we have in the league.
Bernie Cozar continues to join us for a few more
minutes here on Sports Talk seven to ninety Sean Salisbury Show. Bernie,
let me get to your your beloved Cleveland Browns. I
love the fans. I know your affinity for them, my man.
I've played against you in playoff games and the rest
of it, and I know what that city and that
football franchise means to you. Hard question. I know to answer,

(02:21:21):
because the quarterback's a tough position. Are they going to
regret the Deshaun Watson contract and decision?

Speaker 6 (02:21:29):
Well, one of the one of the fun things about
our business is the finality of it, and one of
the bad things about it is the finality of just
whether you win or lose. And we're ultimately only judged
by the wins and losses. And if you look at

(02:21:49):
just status, Sean, you know us old school guys do
is that and then hasn't been successful? And one of
the things that's happened now with the second pick of
the draft is the old Bill Parcells line. You are,
you are what your record is, and when you are
picking second, that isn't that isn't at all an element

(02:22:12):
of success. So how now how you get out of
that and how you move forward? You are in the
Disney World type life, Sean. We all like to live
in Man.

Speaker 2 (02:22:26):
We'd love to have a third year in a row where.

Speaker 6 (02:22:29):
The Houston Texans take C. J. Stroud, the Washington Commanders
take Jade and Daniels, okay, and then Cleveland Brown's go
that same path. But statistically, God, Sean, you and me
know how tough that is to do. And having also
the pieces around you too to rectify. Rectify that is

(02:22:51):
something that's obviously has to be addressed here in Cleveland.

Speaker 2 (02:22:55):
Bernie, And look, Baker had some good moments he did,
he did some good things as a quarterback there. And
I know they've had pick after pick after pick. It's
been since you. And that's no disrespect the guys who've tried, well,
they've had sustained great success at the position. Why have
they missed so much?

Speaker 3 (02:23:14):
Well? What is it?

Speaker 2 (02:23:15):
I mean, you're around you, and I know if we
had the answer, we'd bottle it up and sell it.
But can you put your finger on a franchise you love?
How are they missing at that position with high picks
so often? And it really has not You won't say it,
but I will. It has not been since you, since
they've had sustained success at that position. How do they
get back to that?

Speaker 3 (02:23:37):
Well?

Speaker 6 (02:23:38):
Well, Sean, first, thanks brother for swallowing my cranium.

Speaker 2 (02:23:41):
My headset now.

Speaker 6 (02:23:43):
Doesn't fit a little bit.

Speaker 2 (02:23:44):
So if.

Speaker 6 (02:23:46):
From the distance you know it's only from a swelled
a swelled cranium in that. But but the thing that
the thing again that I kind of been talking through
and I'm not trying to talk in my as my
says in a word salad and that, but we are
victims or beneficiaries of the guys around us. And I

(02:24:06):
could go back to the show in my age, to
the team coming back in nineteen ninety nine, and I'm
a big fan of Tim Couch, first pick at the
draft for the Browns coming back. And I actually believe
Tim Couch was an unbelievable quarterback and is a tough
guy and played exceptional football. But nobody else in Cleveland

(02:24:29):
things believed me in that, and they would call him
a bust. And Sean, we are such victims or beneficiaries
of the guys around us, just like in life. And
how I'm able to look good today showing up and
you guys have all the technical stuff beautifully set up
for me here to do that. That being able to

(02:24:49):
have have the people around you to help you in
system wise has sometimes been lacking, and systems players pressure,
playing too early hasn't matched up, and then you're trying
to sometimes in the past, win the offseason, win the

(02:25:11):
pr battles of it. Those those things have added up
to really us the first quarter of this century being
something where the weekends have been been tough to swallow.

Speaker 2 (02:25:24):
Yeah, they have let me in this with you. I
know you've got a lot going on, brother, and it
means a lot to me to have you on and
you know my affinity for you. Super Bowl, We've got
one hell of a matchup, and I know the referee
talk and all the stuff that's going on, it's almost
overshadowed the great talent on both sides, on both sides
of the ball and on both these teams. Do you
got a thought on this game and who you like? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (02:25:47):
So, Sean, this one is one of the things that
I do is the rematch of the Kansas City Philadelphia
and being from Cleveland and the here talking down in Houston,
but the Kelseys grew up in Cleveland Heights. By me
here in Cleveland, and Travis is doing an unbelievable charity

(02:26:07):
in Kansas City called Operation Breakthrough. And I'm proud to
be talking to you here today as a guy now
with sixties after sixty surgery shot acro combones, one hundred concussions,
fifteen seizures. Heck, my last couple seizures as in a
coma seventy two ninety six hours most of this century.

(02:26:28):
I was scripted on north of eighty to one hundred
pills a day. So to be told seven years ago
that I have five years left to cognitive brain function,
to not be able to say cognitive, to not be
able to enunciate, articulate, communicate any multiple syllable words, to
be able to kind of turn back the cognitive decline

(02:26:48):
and be diagnosed here with Parkinson's early stage dementia, and
then be put on the liver transplant list. Yet to
be able to be physically fine and be able to
positively talk about this today. Mental awareness and mental health
is something that I've been really proud of, and working
with some of the people like Travis and the Kelsey

(02:27:09):
family and stuff has been phenomenal. And since Jason has retired,
I am not conflicted, so I can easily just root
for the Chiefs, unlike most of America.

Speaker 2 (02:27:19):
Brother, you got to you gotta score before I let
you go.

Speaker 6 (02:27:24):
I want to see I want to see Travis and
and Patrick Mahons score some points. You know, I'm biased
towards I'm biased towards the offenses, so I love what
I love the quarterbacks and stuff. So I'm I'm I'm
always rooting for big scores.

Speaker 2 (02:27:37):
There you go. I'm gonna let you go on that,
my man. Listen, you sound phenomenal.

Speaker 3 (02:27:41):
You know.

Speaker 2 (02:27:42):
I follow every step of the way and your grind
and your resilience and the help you've received, but also
the help you've given others. Maybe the most important thing
you've ever done. And you've done a lot of great things.
Raising family obviously at the top of that list. And
a hell of a player. And I love you. I
can't wait to talk to you. I will do that
very much, all right, brother, Love Thanks. That's a great

(02:28:05):
Bernie Cozar. Well, you talk about a guy who's been
through some adversity, and I can tell you what, he's
one of the most positive people I've ever been around.
Hell of a run. We'll come back discuss what he
talked about, and I like it. He's got his guys
from Cleveland Heights and he's going Kansas City all all day,
all the time. That's Bernie Kozar. One of the best.
Coming right back. Doctor Jeff witz it at wits at

(02:28:26):
vision dot com. Wh I T S E T T
the very best in the business. Talk to those who've
gone to the Lasik procedure like me or that get
eye care from doctor whitst. When you're talking about your
eyes pretty damn precious, right, so you might want to
maximize that and go visit with people will tell you
what I'll tell you. There's nobody better. He is attention
to detail. He'll treat your eyes like he'd treat his

(02:28:46):
own families or his own eyes, and he'll walk you
through all the steps of LASIK and the post I care.
It's non invasive. I wasn't on the table ten minutes
and seeing better than I had since the prime of
my vision. So for me, there's nobody better. It's doctor
Jeff Witzeit at witsit Vision dot Com. Again, w h
I T S E T T. When you're looking for
your eyes and they are precious, you want an expert, right.

(02:29:07):
You don't want to leave anything to chance, and you
won't chance anything but success with doctor Jeff witzet It's
Witsit Vision dot Com.

Speaker 4 (02:29:14):
Witsit Vision dot Com. That's wits it Vision dot Com
and we're valc. The Shawn Salisbury Show continued.

Speaker 5 (02:29:24):
The Patriots maybe one of the greatest comeback in sports history,
and they beat the Falcons in the Super Bowl twenty
they came back from twenty eight to three and won it.

Speaker 2 (02:29:33):
That was right here in Houston, by the way. Yeah, legendary.

Speaker 17 (02:29:37):
Sure was.

Speaker 2 (02:29:40):
Dan Quinn, Kyle Shanahan, Matt Ryan, three guys that probably
bothered by that as much as anybody. Shanahan's been to
one couple cents and I've been able to pull it off.
Dan Quinn got close, but they didn't play well in THEIRS,

(02:30:05):
but they got a good quarterback and Matt Ryan's obviously
doing a good job on TV. Tough times, man, when
you know, I mean it literally, who at in the
middle of the third quarter, you're up twenty eight to three,
even though are twenty four to three that Tom Brady
is your guy? Was it twenty eight three or twenty fourth?
Twenty eight three? Yeah, twenty eight three, and uh you're
playing against Brady. But even then in the second half,

(02:30:26):
you're thinking, today's our day, our defense is playing really well.
There is no way you're thinking the middle of the
third quarter, I'm going to be a Super Bowl champion. Yeah,
if I'm not mistaken, that might have been Matt Ryan's
MVP year as well, So that would have if not
it was close that time around, but he might have
been the MVP in the league that year, and so
you're think an MVP super Bowl champions and then before

(02:30:51):
you know it, you've blink and Brady's beat you again.
Another super Bowl ring incredible. I think you're in for
a good one. Make our I know we'll make our
predictions later in the week, but I think this game's
going to end up. And I won't pick a score yet,
but I think it's going to be dramatic fashion. Matt
Ryan was the league MVP. He was yeh, there you go, yep,
he was that year. That's crazy, twenty eight to three.

(02:31:14):
They were up and they choked it away. I think
about some funny stuff. I was thinking the other day
about yesterday. Should I say about, like you were talking
about basketball earlier, I was thinking about high school basketball,
and we're guy. I always I'm always intrigued sometimes where
high school basketball players went to high school? I mean,
were pro basketball players legends went to high school. I

(02:31:34):
always think would have liked to go back to their gym.
You know, I'm out there playing golf thinking, man, you know,
Abdul jabbarro which we were just talking about, like lu
Al Sindors. You called him like a Power Memorial guy
in New York. Oh yeah, I decided, you know, I
don't even know what would hit me thinking about it,
but I was like, you could have a great show
name and where the most basketball players NBA players? What

(02:31:56):
high schools produced the most NBA basketball players? I give
you find it out with a little Google shirt. You know,
Oak Hill Academy. Possibly, you know, you start to look around,
it may be something that you know it's not. I mean,
Power Memorial the only one I know from there. I'll
bil Jabar Major. Christie High School was Tony red Bruin,
but he wasn't a great pro Pearl Washington, I think
was christ the King High School in New York City.

(02:32:19):
It's Oak Hill Academy, is it really? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (02:32:22):
Okay, DeWitt Clinton, which is in the Bronx, Damatha Damantha
and Maryland Hardgrave Military academ That's academy that's in Virginia.

Speaker 2 (02:32:33):
Let's see. So it is it's it is. The most
NBA players are from Oak Hill Academy. Makes sense? And
you mentioned h what was the second one? Damatha Demantha
High School in d C. One of the great all
time Morgan Wooton, one of the great all time high
school basketball coaches ever is the Damatha guy, and they

(02:32:56):
have produced a lot of great, great college and NBA players.
But it doesn't shock me that oak Kill Academy is
the one cross referencing real quick, Yeah, it looks like Okill.
Sorry for the pause right there, No problem, I was
going to get. It just kind of hit me, you know,
with all things were going on, thinking about the NBA
and uh and what high school we always talk about football,

(02:33:17):
what high school or states produced the most? New York
obviously a lot of grace, you know, the Christ the
King High School, and obviously Abdul Jabar when he was
Louell Center from Power Memorial. But there's a lot of sweet,
really good ones. And then but Okill Academy's had a
few roll through there they have.

Speaker 5 (02:33:31):
I got to watch o'kill when back in what two
thousand and six and five at the Houston versus the
Nation tournament right here in Houston.

Speaker 2 (02:33:38):
I don't think they do it anymore. And my god,
man that that o'kill was really really good. Inglewood High
schol when I was going up, was unbelieved. They were
like thirty five and oh in high school and they
had six or seven Division one. The two guys coming
off the bench with Division one verbum Day High school
was the same way. They had six seven starters. It's
like three of them went to U. C.

Speaker 3 (02:33:57):
L A.

Speaker 2 (02:33:57):
I saw them in person. They was loaded. But yeah,
it makes sense. It'll kill academies produced the most.

Speaker 5 (02:34:02):
Yeah, they're they're really good at stake. And see if
we get to Gary. I've got a couple of seconds.
What's up Gary, Hey, guys, good morning.

Speaker 8 (02:34:08):
Before I asked my question on the astros sean, you
were I was listening to you earlier, and I guess
it depends on what where you were brung up and
what part of what part of the century you were
brought up.

Speaker 2 (02:34:18):
But you were you said, uh, negative Nelly.

Speaker 8 (02:34:21):
Yeah, and for some reason it didn't sound good to me,
and it just dawnedn't on to me. Where I was
brought up, it was negative Nancy.

Speaker 2 (02:34:30):
Oh yeah, I think negative.

Speaker 6 (02:34:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:34:31):
I think most people say negative Nancy. But I grew
up on a negative Nelly card. Okay, because I don't
know Nancy is always positive, She's never been negative. Whoever
that Nancy is Nellie's Nelly's just a negative negative Nelly.
So yeah, and maybe maybe the era or the where
I was no no doubt about it.

Speaker 8 (02:34:48):
Yeah, heym and being an old guy, you know, with
brain farts and all that stuff.

Speaker 6 (02:34:53):
For the life of him and big time astro fan.

Speaker 8 (02:34:55):
I can't remember who when the year ended, who was
the the normal, regular, every day first baseman. And and
then I also to follow up that, who who's going
to be the starting first baseman?

Speaker 2 (02:35:06):
Can you remind me of that Kristian Walker from the
Arizona Diamondbacks this offseason signed a nice deal here. He
will be the everyday first baseman and he's got pop
and power and obviously a break you for most of
the season, and then it became a position of of
carotenk Victor Carroten Singletons spend a lot of time there

(02:35:28):
at the end. Yeah, and Singleton's not young, but he
was there at the end most of the time. All right.

Speaker 8 (02:35:33):
If you see negative Nancy walking by, tell her, I said,
Gary said, hey.

Speaker 2 (02:35:37):
I hear she. Can you imagine if she dated negative Nelly?
What a horrible but two negatives equally positive ad science.
That's gonna do it for Salisbury show. He and Sean Salisbury.
What's the you You for have to tell me what
the left tackle of the Texans name. That's Laryon Tunsen. Okay,
I just want to make sure. Yeah, or Laramie Tunzel

(02:35:59):
or but which one do you prefer? Who's better? Laron
Tons And you think you're being sheets today, I'm going
to nap right now. Yeah, I don't know the way
of the day. I'm going to watch these trades all day,
trade deadline tomorrow in the NBA. I'm sitting to take
care of some meetings, and then I'm gonna hashtag built

(02:36:20):
for later this afternoon standing on bed, Matt exactly. We're idiots.
See you later,
