I can't remember the answer. Maybe I didn't. Maybe it
was in my dreams, you know, when I was dreaming
of us. You know. Yeah, I'll leave the light on
for your thanks, Papa, roach you. Uh, I got a
problem now. I know this is going to be. It's
gonna all on deaf fiars for some. Maybe it's just

(05:02):
the way I was raised, not a problem to the
point where it's going to be some rant. When I
go to church, which is every sum.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
Please tell me, please tell them we are about to be
on the same page.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
Yeah. First off, if guys, if guys don't wear open
to you're not Jesus. Don't wear open toad sandals to
church or flip flops. I'm sorry, I don't care how
casual your church is. First of all, never wear gene
shorts to church, guys. Two is, do not wear flip
flops or open tod Jesus sandals to church. You're not Jesus.

(05:32):
When you walk across the air, and if you walk
across the baptismal font and don't sink you can wear
those sandals, don't do it. Two, don't wear a hat
in church. To me, Well, God doesn't care what you wear.
I gotta believe maybe if your dad said, don't wear
a hat at the dinner table, don't wear a hat
to church. I don't care if you're bald. I don't

(05:54):
care if you got four scars from football playing and
you scarred up. I don't care if you wear one
of those where you got you know, like out of
the cartoons the burt on top of their head gets
burnt and all they gets the side. What do they
call that haircut? It's a bald on the side thing,
you know where they got more hair on the sides.
They go on their ass. Yeah, the cold a sack,
ye yeah yeah. Put a basketball hoop at the end
of it. But don't forever all the kids to play.

(06:16):
I just don't understand why I see a hat in church.
So I went to are you with me?

Speaker 3 (06:21):
No?

Speaker 7 (06:22):
I I well, I can't. I can get behind if
you wear a hat in church, just take it off.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
I'm talking now, women wearing the old school like you
you'll see it in church. Women wear like like they
would wear to Kentucky Derby. I mean that's not the
same hat where it's flair and colors, but a conservative
hat that matches the outfit or a gentleman maybe that
wears one of those the oldboy, No, doesn't belong to church.
Before you walk in the building. If you go to church,
hat doesn't belong and you can take it off and

(06:49):
put it on your lap, set it by your chair,
or that one day, just just don't wear I don't
know why you can't go without a hat for an hour.

Speaker 7 (06:56):
So I've worn a hat to church, but I've always
I always, like when I used to go every Sunday,
I would take it off, great, like.

Speaker 5 (07:03):
Take it off, just take take it off, talking about
why you're sitting there standing up or jumping around and
singing whatever it is. Yeah, why you got it? And
I know it's not that big a deal. And I
know the Lord, Hey Sean, the Lord doesn't judge. I
get it. It's not a matter of that. But I
can tell you this. If you walked into the Lord's house,
which I guess that we'd consider that the Lord's house,
would you walk in, hey man, what do you think
about my baseball cap? Or would you not that he

(07:23):
judge you? Would you walk in with his Jesus sandals
and a baseball cap? Or would you take it off?
Me respectful at his dinner table.

Speaker 7 (07:28):
Well, what if you walk in and Jesus is wearing
open toad shoes and a hat.

Speaker 5 (07:31):
Well, guess what, Uh, when you're the boss, you can
do that whatever you want. It's a good point where
whatever you want, whatever you want to say. Not not
that it's a big deal. I'm just thinking, like reverence.
You know there's someone like your Sunday best. I'm just thinking,
is it really that hard for one and a half
hours a week? And I know it sounds like it's
not condescending. I don't mean it self righteous at all. Listen,

(07:55):
there's a lot of us that cuss for six days
and try not to cuss on Sunday or walk right
out of her and say, can you that mother more hat? Right?
But I don't know. I think it begs a good question.
We have men, should you be wearing baseball caps? And well,
it doesn't matter what I'm wearing because I'm studying the gospel. Now. Listen,
if you're off the streets at homeless and you walk
in and you don't have your closer dirt, I don't

(08:16):
care if you're closer dirty, because you can't wash all that.
I'm just saying if it's possible health wise, I understand
somebody's got a skull cap, but let's be let's make this.
Let's be fair about this. I get the health issues
if you have to wear something, or I'm just talking
about when you just walked off the golf course throws
some water through your hair. I just I don't know, man,

(08:39):
Maybe maybe I'm wrong, but I don't believe dudes should
be wearing baseball caps in church. And I definitely don't
think you should be wearing flip flops in church. I
just don't. I think it's completely I think it's completelys
I sure, I am, Oh, yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (08:55):
See flip flops and crocs.

Speaker 5 (08:56):
I don't know. It's not a matter of you need
to wear Listen, I'm I Usually I try to. I
try to put a dress clothes on, or a sport
code or a tie on church, because if they say
we're your Sunday best, I believe I can sacrifice, considering
we all ask for help during the week and beg
for him, pray for help and all that an hour,

(09:16):
I can sacrifice that not not having to dress in
my you know, best golf clothing to even if you
do golf clothes. Fine, yeah, I just I'm just not
a hat guy in church, and you know me, I
love to wear hats period. That's the place where I
think I can take it off at the dinner table
and in church. It's just been in my craw because
I just wonder. And if you do it, I'm not
judging you and saying you're a bad person at all.

(09:38):
That's between you and the Lord. It just for me perception.
I will never in my life and I never have
and I never will not a cowboy hat, not a
baseball hat, not a not a cagle hat. It ain't
I'm not hearing for somewhere.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
I'm sure you know what kangle hats are.

Speaker 5 (09:54):
No o, God, Sam Jackson wears those lives. When you
see him on a golf course, Samuel jacks you've seen
him in the hangle K A and G L E
Kangle house K and G O L I believe, Ok,
Yeah that's right angle Yeah yeah dude. This was like
the nineties. Oh my god, man.

Speaker 7 (10:09):
These hats took the world storm.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
It's kind of what you can also call it, like
a green beret hat, you know, right, But for me,
it's just maybe people out there disagree. I just we
had not a place of judge. We did like three
years ago we did.

Speaker 7 (10:21):
It was like the first year because I remember it
came up because back then I was wearing I always
wore a hat in here, and I always were backwards.
But then if we would go around other people, I
would make sure to turn it around right, and then
that's what we just hear. It was like a respect thing, right,
That's how I always viewed it.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
Yeah, I just just like I wouldn't allow my kids
to wear a backward hat on a baseball practice. They're
not gonna disrespect. Get cut. Yeah, the second you walk in.
The first thing I'm saying to is turn your hat around, dude,
you'll get cut. Exactly happen when you're Kim Griffy. You
can wear it anywhere you want during the bad the
home run derby. Until then, Kim Griffy, You're gonna wear
the baseball hat forward.

Speaker 7 (10:53):
Kids will play for me, like, you're not wearing iPods
or air pods when you're warming up, you're not doing
any of that. You you haven't done a damn thing. Well,
you're you're a freshman in high school. Take their pot out.

Speaker 5 (11:02):
That's right, and turn your hat around and respect it
the way you're supposed to. We're not practicing like that
and all. If you want to wear eight wrist bands,
that's on you. But when it comes to the hat,
you're gonna turn out. And I just feel that same
way in church and not that big a deal just
been so I'm like, yeah, man, like I guess. I mean,
you know, l why the Lord doesn't judge, but at
some point in time, don't we got to take us
Just to me, it's just respect. Just like I wouldn't
walk into your house for dinner and you know, a

(11:25):
nice day, or somebody's house for dinner at Chrismas and
keep my hat on at the dinner table. I just
won't do it now. I try to, even in a
restaurant take it off. But sometimes you go into fact,
I don't make that big a deal. Sometimes you just
forget because it's on all the time church. On Sunday,
I can make a conscious effort not to wear a hat, while.

Speaker 7 (11:40):
Since it is Western Wednesday, we're gonna come back with
That's what I love about Sundays. Yeah, rains, little simo. Yeah,
Craig Morgan and love Craig Morgan, man, that's what I
love about Sundays, was yeah, Raymond Raymonds in his Sunday best.

cold fried chicken, though. Really I reheat. I reheat pizza

big old chicken breast, get it out and let us
sit out for about five minutes after you had it
in a cold refrigerator. Oh dude, next day, fried ch

Speaker 5 (13:28):
Hey, well, I digress. So, by the way, Tiger Woods
is hurt again. I know. I yeah to my stomach.
Brother sucks. Dude. You know what, And I guarantee you
you questioned his fortieth comeback. Watch what he's gonna do.
He's going to come back and prove to the world
and then he's gonna go on the senior tour and
win like seven of them in a row. Watch. I
hope he does. I do too.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
That sucks, man.

Speaker 5 (13:47):
And he was just practicing, See he was getting ready
to gear up to come back this year on the
PGA Tour. Yeah, and practicing probably in his backyard or something,
because he got that golf course right there in Florida
in his house. I think it's in Jupiter, Florida. Yeah,
and tours achilles. Then I just this dude. But you
know what, if there's ever a guy that you say
his grind is as good as anybody's just to prove

(14:07):
a point, the dude will play in a tournament again.
I guarantee it. Damn it did suck when I heard
that news again, Yeah, it was like what a bummer
man already had surgery on it? Yeah, yeah, how many guys?
You know most guys, Hey, dude, you tore your achilles
and what are you gonna do? Rest for a week
and let it the swelling go down. He tore his achilles, win,
got an opinion, got surgery on it, and his home

(14:29):
rehabbing in the same day. The same day, the guys
that the guy is a comeback freak show.

Speaker 7 (14:36):
And dude you know it's it's because you saw like
what he was doing on the tg L on his
on that he started.

Speaker 5 (14:42):
He was walking a little better too. Before them we
start to see him the team he started, he was
like last year when he saw him on the fairways,
it was tough to get you. He had a gideo
hitching his gideo. Yeah, started to look like he was better.
And I'm just telling you, man, he'll he'll make a comeback.
If your question, he almost lost his damn leg. But
but the thing about this, his achilles is opposite the
bad leg, So it makes you wonder whether a lot

(15:04):
of favoring it and stuff and all that. Yeah, I
think it's his left leg now, his left achilles that
he blew out. But I'll tell you what. You can
say whatever you want, you guys, go ahead and question him,
not me. This dude will find a way to play
in a golf tournament again. And don't be shocked. Depending
on where it is. If the dude shoots sixty eight
the very first day he's in.

Speaker 7 (15:23):
It, he's gonna he'll make his comeback. What probably from
a year from now and then Charlie Woods is going
to make his debut on the PGA Tour.

Speaker 5 (15:29):
It's like a billionaire who keeps working in there, like
in their company and doesn't retire, like, dude, I'm six,
I'm gonna go enjoy the fruit of my labor, but
keeps working because he just loves work. This dude, what's
he got to prove on a golf course?

Speaker 7 (15:40):
I mean, has nothing but just the pure fact of
how I can come back again, Right, That's it.

Speaker 5 (15:45):
And that's why he was so good at golf. His
friggin grind is his grind is unparalleled, it really is.

can spend some time and you think, was Charlie, he's
probably got the gold come back, Charlie, I'm still whooping
your ast exactly. That's and I love that competitive it's
about him. It's a bummer for fucks man. Yeah, sure
it does, all right.

Speaker 7 (16:04):
Seven one, three, two, two five seven ninety is the
number to join NFL free agency. The frenzy continues. The
Texans make an addition to their offensive line room. Also,
uh Cam Smith quite literally is forcing the astro's hand
to put him on the opening day roster and so
much more.

Speaker 4 (16:20):
Right here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Sean Salisbury, Brian, this is this Sean Salisbury show on
Sports Talk seven ninety.

Speaker 5 (16:35):
That's what I saw you when you were You're an
eight and down your leg at eight at game. Coach.
I'll call you coach around people, Yeah, because you're my guy.
But when we're sitting around having a beer, your your
first thing. Yeah. But if Saban walked in here right now, no,
I'm not calling him Nick, I'm calling him coach. Yeah,
until until otherwise dictated to me. Yeah, I think.

Speaker 7 (16:57):
If Nick Saban walked in here right now, I would
introduce myself. I was, hey, Nick, my name is you know,
and introduced myself brianally, and then if we had him
on air, I would call him coach.

Speaker 5 (17:05):
Absolutely, That's how I would do it. Yeah, Saves, would
you call him Saves? He's up, Sabs. No, Yeah, he's
just coached me, Nick, he's been at it long enough. Yeah.
Like a doctor. Now, I'm not saying his job is
more important than a doctor, but I got friends that
are a doctor that that my one of my wide
receivers than high school is a really good orthopedic surgeon

(17:26):
in Orange County, California, and he's still pat right, but
if I walked into his practice, yeah, it'd be doctor Roth.
That's what it is. That damn right.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
He earned that.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
So yeah, but he's my Hell we were running bang
posts in the eleventh grade on number eighty four, so yeah, yeah,
he's still my that's my dog. But I'm but in
the rights and in different circumstances. He just so the
people around understand the perception this is, this is doctor Roth. Yeah, right,
that would how I how I would approach it.

Speaker 7 (17:58):
I got something random for you, all right, bring it
all your travels, travails or travel all your travels everywhere
you throughout your career, meaning your NFL career, your broadcasting career.
Would you say that some of the best high school
athletes are here in the city of Houston in all sports.

Speaker 5 (18:16):
Yeah, I've and I've lived in some pretty cool places too,
you know, living in Chicago, living in Minnesota, California, growing up.
For the best athletes I've ever been around that I've lived,
it's it's it's pretty easy. Yeah, it's here in Cali, California. Right, Yeah,
it's listen like, and it's not just there's not good

(18:39):
athletes from am but the array of them, the depth
of the athlete. No disrespect to places like Minnesota or
other places Seattle that have lived and I played. I
can just tell you this.

Speaker 6 (18:53):
For me.

Speaker 5 (18:53):
The best sports states when you just overall for all
three major sports and you could pick in any your
do you want, California, Texas, Florida. Now, Georgia's got some
great athletes, Louisiana's got But I've never lived in either
one of those places. Places I've lived or played, it's
not I mean, I can get twelve basketball players in
all three of those states. I can get fifty three

(19:14):
football players. I can get a full what twenty five
twenty six baseball players, and we're gonna compete with any
of them, right, And so the best athletes I've ever
been around here those three states, in the states I've
lived California, Texas, Texas, California sliced it anywhere you want,
and in local cities, I mean, all three sports. Come on, man,
this is this city here is loaded with yeah, and

(19:35):
the suburbs Houston proper and around is loaded with freak
show athletes.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
Yeah, So excuse me.

Speaker 7 (19:42):
The reason I asked is I went and watched one
of my high school players playing a game last night.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
He plays for Willis High School.

Speaker 7 (19:49):
He's a freshman on varsity.

Speaker 4 (19:52):
Started at shortop last night in the ninth hole.

Speaker 7 (19:54):
And what I'm doing is trying to get out to
see all my high school guys play in a game,
Like I'm gonna go to some Cliino games next year
watching one of my players. But I watched and they
played the Woodlands last night. The kid that started for
the Woodlands as a junior, last name Schmekel. He's committed
the UT already and he was pumping ninety four ninety five.
I sat directly behind home played how to radar gun
in front of me. He sat ninety he was he

(20:17):
scouts were in the house, obviously he sat No. I
think on the high school was a local guy who
I thought was who had the gun. Actually, one of
my high school directors, Tyler, was sitting next to me,
and he had all the gun. Yeah, because two of
our players, two of our high school guys played for
Willis High School, gotcha, So he had we had everything
going right.

Speaker 5 (20:36):
So here was the whole time. He sat ninety one
to ninety three, humped it up to ninety five at
one time.

Speaker 7 (20:42):
But yeah, he's a junior. But then on the flip
side of it, one of the juniors for willis he's
already he's a DBU commit. He came in later on
in the game was Dallas. He become one of the
powerhouses in college baseball. Yeah, left handed hitter Gage Blinka
is his name. And I'm just in my mind, I'm
like thinking back to when I was an high school
every district game Tuesdays and Fridays, we saw ninety plus

(21:03):
every every time, right, So that was normal to me.
But now that I'm out of that and i'm coaching,
I'm looking at some of these kids. These kids are
just built different. Like some of these kids are monsters now,
and I'm not saying they weren't back then. Like I
played against Paul Goldschmidt grown up. He was a monster,
but that was like he was like a golden goose,
if you will. Kyle dre Back another kid that was
a golden goose, like his daddy was a pretty good

(21:24):
pitcher too. Like these kids were just different.

Speaker 5 (21:26):
Right. It seems like one through nine on some of
these teams, they're just monsters. Oh dude, I'm with you
the same way. There was a handful of it. I
put me in it cause I had good art. I
could do it there too. But like Billy Bean, Kevin
Burrell was a first round pick for the Red Sox
as a catcher. Billy Bean, we obviously know Jay m
the As was a rival and a friend, and Billy
could hit five hundred and yeah. It seemed like every

(21:46):
time he hit it, he hit it hard, somewhere right.
And as a pitcher he was The truth is he
was a natural center right fielder. When you got that
kind of arm, you're pitching every every third start or
whatever it is, right and you're exactly right, it's like
it feels like there's more of them doing it now
because of all the training and all the stuff throwing
that hard. But then when you're facing a guy, when
you're used to facing probably mid eighties by the end,

(22:08):
you know, a good the number one guy on a
high school staff, and then all of a sudden, those
guys are throwing ninety two, ninety three, ninety four or
it is. But funny thing about it, even when me
throwing in the nineties, Kevin Burrell was a catcher. I
bounced two car I told you that I bounced two curveballs.
In front of the plate. He was like Red Sox
twenty fifth pick in the first round, I think twenty something.
And he's a scouting for Atlanta. He'd been doing scouting

(22:30):
for years now. Just talked to him a couple of
weeks ago. He he stepped out in front of home plate. Dude,
I bounced two curveballs because I knew he was a
fastball hit a low fastball hitter. Yeah, and did my
ego got in WHI Walker said this this he's my friend.
He said, he doesn't challenge me in my own It
was weird our field and I said no, And he
knew that he was gonna get in my head. I
reminded him by I said, yeah, you mean the time
I bounced two in front of you and then all

(22:51):
of a sudden, you walk out in front of home
plate and loud talk me. Did I threw him a
fastball at the knees and it didn't move an ounce
And I don't if I threw it one hundred and five.
He hit the ball so far to left field. We
didn't have our left field fence is like five hundred
feet away. Because we didn't have a left field fence,
we had a right field fence. It led to the
football field in the track. You know, back in those days,

(23:12):
we are we didn't have a lot of money. The heikes,
they didn't have an outfield fence, do now, dude, he
was halfway to home plate when my left fielder, Darren
Poindexter grabbed the baseball. What dude, he hit it so
far it goes out of Yellowstone Park. He's walking home
base and I'm standing there with my glove on my hip,
Sayking Sean, you idiot. He goes on. And the reason
Kevin didn't last long in baseball is wanting great curveball

(23:34):
hitter had a hose for a cat six or four
about two to ten back then. And dude, he hit
it so far. But you're right, whether they're sitting, you
got a guy here in ninety four living there, yeah,
in ninety two, ninety three, and a junior and probably
doesn't even know how to pitch just yet, you know,
as he matures, right, I bet that was fun. Woodland's
always producing those.

Speaker 7 (23:50):
Boys, yeah, yeah, And honest it was crazy because the
kid for willis that pitched Matthew Reynoso hit top velocity
eighty three any and they.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
Would probably strike, probably painting it right.

Speaker 7 (24:03):
And and he he was. He kept the woolands off,
bounced the wolds one one to nothing.

Speaker 5 (24:09):
Sometimes if you throw strikes eighty three feels like you're
ninety with with place.

Speaker 7 (24:13):
His slider and change up were. Dude, he could throw
that for a strike in any count I was. I
was really impressed by that kid. My family top velocity.

Speaker 5 (24:21):
My favorite is guys like that who are playing at
eighty three eighty two and it's three and oh and
they're not afraid to throw a curveball and it throw
it for strike. Yeah, high school, your program three and
I got to get a strike. See you throw fastball
and everybody knows it, and you tell the guy loose
who's going to be a high draft pick, and bam
they kill it. So I love that, And that's that
command quite frankly leaving in high school. If you've got

(24:41):
good hitters ninety three miles an hour, a good hitter
in the middle of life, they're gonna hit it. Yeah,
they're they're gonna hit it. But yeah, udea I was.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
I just was curious, man, just watching some of these
kids last night.

Speaker 5 (24:51):
Yes, you're living the same the same way you played
against those major leaders and stuff when you see But
I'm going to tell you what outside Texas, Florida and
you'll get good ones. But as far as the depth
of Texas, Florida and California in all sports, yeah there
there there is. You can give me New York and
all Georgia. But when it's player for player in all
three sports, yeah, I got news for you. Those three

(25:13):
states are sitting right at the top every year, every time,
all the time. Yeah, there's no doubt.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
Yeah I figured that.

Speaker 7 (25:19):
But just curious, man, all all the travels, point seven one, three,
five seven ninety is the number to join. We roll
along right here on The Shawn Salisbury Show. The Shawn
Salisbury Show continued, and George Straight.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
George, George Straight. All walk into a room. And it's
not Texas because I know what they're say. In Texas.
You're sitting in Scottsdale, in old town with some zoids. Okay,
all four walk in. Uh who gets who gets the
eyes first? With the King Elvis, I would agree, followed
by King George, yes, then Richard Petty and then Lebron last. Right. Yeah, Now,

(25:56):
if you're in Charlotte, it's Lebron first. No, if you're
in Charlotte, no, it is it. Lebron's last everywhere, even
in the Lake of locker room. Okay, if you walk
in there, the first one. If you're in Charlotte, it's
the King. Richard Petty.

Speaker 4 (26:07):
Yeah, because Charlotte.

Speaker 5 (26:08):
If you're in any southern country state, more than likely
it would be George Strait. But even then, it doesn't
matter where you go. Elvis is first everywhere, even in Charlotte.
Elvis is going first. Oh yeah, undoubtedly that wasn't Michael Jackson,
the King of pop you know what we called him?
Put him in the five. Now give me the order
of the king. Michael Jackson, then Elvis and Elvis, straight Petty,

(26:32):
depending on where you are with the straight and petty thing,
because you're in the South and the country, and the
who goes first?

Speaker 4 (26:39):
Who's bigger George? Is he by a little bit?

Speaker 6 (26:42):
You think?

Speaker 5 (26:43):
Yeah? Triple? Do you know who Richard Petty is? NASCAR guy,
one of the Yeah, so that'd be a battle. Is
Lebron a king anywhere bigger than than then? Those guys?
Not bigger than Jackson, not bigger than Pressley. I don't

(27:03):
think anywhere's bigger than George Strait and maybe he Lebron's
bigger than Petty.

Speaker 7 (27:07):
Yeah, NASCAR racers in the South, Yeah, that's where the
battle is for fourth and fifth. Did you see Steven A.

Speaker 5 (27:14):
Smith went on the gold Aerena's podcast yesterday and like
finally unfiltered, told his story about Lebron m And you
know Lebron approached him right, oh, yeah, up to him.
It was in the middle of the third quarter. Yeah,
during the game. He left the time out early to
approach a media member. And you don't think he has
douche You don't think he has rabbit ears? Good god. Hey,
Like I've always said, you want to talk about a

(27:35):
beast and a player, Lebron James is that guy. He's
a pid. But you want to talk about a rabbit
hear and getting too caught up in all the nonsense.
Guess what that is. That's Lebron.

Speaker 7 (27:45):
You can you can say whatever you want about Steven A.
Smith and his takes and all that stuff works his
ass off man. The way that he explained that story
yesterday was a hundred per spent spawned. He said, I
wasn't talking mess about your son. He said, I think
your son could be a really good player. He's got
a long way to go. But you created this, You
had him drafted, You tweeted out, he said, you tweeted
out that he's better than half of the league.

Speaker 5 (28:07):
This is you did all this.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
You put your son in a in a in a
position to fail.

Speaker 5 (28:13):
This is self inflicted diarrhea of the mouth by Lebron James.
Make no mistake his kid. Nobody said his kid wasn't
a good kid. Nobody didn't give him love when he
was going through health ish and none of that. This
is strictly on the basketball court. Say what you want,
I can find the best high school player in America
is better than Brownie James right now? Yes, today, Yes, okay,
he's not in the class. And if it wasn't for

(28:35):
his dad's name and his dad pining for it, he
wouldn't be a Laker. And not consurance, I'll tell you
he would have been drafted in the second round unless
it was a throwaway talent. Yes, uh, realize talent just yet. No,
the talent is more talked about than the production. The guys.
The guy is a below average NBA bench guy. So
if Lebron created this, it's not nobody said, your kid's

(28:57):
not a good kid, and she's a great kid. This
has nothing to do And if you don't like the smoke,
then shut your mouth about your kid. If you don't,
if you're telling us how great your kid is and
your kid doesn't live up to the expectations other than
on your back patio shooting hoops when he was nine,
save it. Yeah, and you know, I love the Lakers
and I have nothing but respect on the court for
Lebron James. I think he overloads his mouth with his

(29:19):
ass off it at times, and I'm a Laker guy.
All the respect in the world for the There's never
been a bigger beast play but with Steven A. Smith
and Stephen A. Smith is a lot of hot air
at times. But I love Steven A. Smith's grind. One
thing you can never take away from a guy making
twenty million year the dude shows up to work and
posts every day. You may I like the post, but
he shows up. I'll tell you what he doesn't do,

(29:41):
Unlike the guy he's arguing with. He doesn't take days off.
Yeah four, I'm gonna take the day out because my
hammi here. Oh no, no, no, he doesn't take days off, Oh, Sean,
it's TV. My point is is that he shows up
to work and he's not afraid to walk up and
go face to face with the guy. A lot of
these guys hide behind a desk and don't go out
and meet the athlete.

Speaker 8 (30:00):
I like that.

Speaker 5 (30:00):
Steven A. Smith went sent front row and no one
Lebron's probably got a little thing in his crawl. But
what guy in the middle of a quarter during the
time out walks over there and addresses him. So nothing
but respect for Lebron. But if you can't handle the
smoke about your kid as a player, yeah, listen, steven A.
Smith just had the guts to say what all of
us believe. There's not a basketball analyst. If you're a

(30:22):
basketball analyst and you tell me Bronnie James is a star, yeah,
you're just kissing Lebron's ass.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Yeah, steven A.

Speaker 7 (30:30):
Smith said on that podcast, he said, we had to
sit back us as media members and listen to you
basically pine for your son day after day after day
after day, and no one would call it. Like he said,
I got tired of it. It's a fast So I
said what he said, I said the truth.

Speaker 5 (30:44):
He said what everybody else was thinking, Yeah, I can
tell you this. Lebron's been great for the NBA. He's
the face of the NBA. He's also been one of
the worst for the NBA for what he's created, for
some of these things, load management, a lot of this.
I have nothing but respect for him as a player. Yeah,
and I'm and a guy who's donate a lot of
money to check all the building, the school, all that.
But make no mistake about it, a lot of Lebron

(31:05):
James is self serving. We we all want to protect
our kid and tell how great our kid is. But
if Lebron James was sitting in there and he wasn't
related to Bronnie James, and he watched him play, he'd say,
what's the talk about? Man? He would say, man, if
he can't he wasn't even the fifth best player on

(31:25):
the Trojans to let me just tell you something, brother,
Lebron James is awesome. His kid will never be a
superstar in the league. I'm not even sure this kid
will ever be a consistent starter, unless, of course, his
dad's pushing him from behind. He's an average He's a
he's an average college player.

Speaker 7 (31:44):
Right now, now, the one that's going to be a
star is Bryce probably the younger side that kid.

Speaker 5 (31:51):
Dude and I and listen, I hope Bronnie James.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Nobody saying.

Speaker 5 (31:54):
Nobody's saying that Bronnie James. Maybe he turns into all warts,
hard works on something to prove and gets it and
go and you know what, we'll all stand up and say, Man,
he's so much better after progression, No question, that's a
great thing. Yeah, it's not personal. We're talking sports, and
when it comes to that, everybody wants to push their son.
But see, lebron is rose colored glasses when it comes

(32:16):
to his kid as a player, Ronnie James is not
a good bath. He's talented, but when it comes to
production on the back, he's just a guy. Yeah, he's
just a guy. Inter fact. Quite frankly, he may not
even just a gye right now. Yeah not right now, No,
he's not. I thought it was.

Speaker 7 (32:28):
The podcast interview was great, man, just listening to steven
A finally be able to talk about it. Drop a
couple off bombs here and there. He said, he thought
I said, he said, I thought that F and BS
was weak. I'm with you could because you also got
to think about it, Sean. How many other media members
have have criticized Lebron James play, the way he handled
stuff off the court for years. Skip Bayless, dude, Skip

(32:49):
Bayless has spent hours upon hours roasting Lebron James. Not
one time did he approached Skip Bayless. Not one time
did he call out Skip Bayless. Not one time did
he call him to talk mess to him. But he
approaches Steven A. I like for quote unquote bad mouth
in his son. No, he criticized you, Lebron.

Speaker 5 (33:06):
I think anybody that tells me Bronny James is a
really good player is is uh should lose instant basketball
credit bills? It's that that's just the ass kiss And
I'm afraid of Lebron. Yeah, when Lebron's out of the
game and away from it, what what?

Speaker 9 (33:22):
What?

Speaker 6 (33:22):
What?

Speaker 5 (33:22):
Watch the people who walk around afraid of their own shadow?
What's Lebron gonna do if you criticize him? Kick your ass? Yeah,
right after he pulls a hamstring? Yeah, stop it? Okay,
great respect to the player. Save it. If you're afraid
of Lebron or any of these other athletes who try
to put the fear in you, just just save it
okay if I if you can't criticize, but I'll tell
you what you compliment him that they'll be they'll be,

(33:45):
you know, kissing your asses quickly. Ow man, you're my dog,
you know. And the Segon you said, they'll flip on
you in a hurry. Athletes will Yeah, because you had
to criticize. Oh, you only miss fourteen to three pointers. Right,
we're not allowed to criticize your kid. Save it seven?

Speaker 7 (34:00):
And he got some guys don't want to get in
on some discussions. We've got some Texans to get into.
They add to their offensive line room. Also, was there
some toxicity in that old line room? Let's talk about
it next.

Speaker 5 (34:11):
Let the celebration start.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
War Sean Salisbury.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
It's a Sewan Salisbury show.

Speaker 5 (34:18):
Oh but the lower third, says Ryan Clark, analyst. Just
in case you forgot I gotta get one of those.
He's probably got a S. He's probably got a he's
probably got his last name tatting on his back. Is
there is there a chance he's got personalized license plates? Definitely?
R Clark, whatever his number was, I didn't know what's

(34:40):
your name? Again? That's good. You see lapel, You'll see
by Lapel. Now if he wears that when he's out golf,
and I got a real problem, dude. If all is
said he's got he probably does. Man, probably golf shirt? Fine,
you know who I am.

Speaker 4 (34:55):
We got to check it out, man, r C dog.
I had no idea it was him.

Speaker 5 (35:00):
What's up, Steve? Hey, good morning, guys.

Speaker 10 (35:03):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yes, sir, we got you.

Speaker 9 (35:05):
Hey.

Speaker 11 (35:05):
I want to ask you guys a question. Correct me
if I'm wrong. Did we not get a new offensive
line coach?

Speaker 5 (35:10):
You did?

Speaker 4 (35:11):
Correct?

Speaker 12 (35:12):
Okay?

Speaker 11 (35:12):
So my next question is, is with a new offensive
coordinator and a new off offensive line coach, this massive
deportation of this offensive line? You know when they start,
you know, all last year it was like, man, we
got to get rid of these guys. So now that
they're doing and it's like, whoa wait a minute, what
are y'all doing? Do you think it is a scenario
where the offense of coordinators new offense he's going to

(35:37):
bring in, these guys aren't relevant to that offense? Or
is did this offensive line coach come in here and
you know, watch these watch these films and go wait
a minute, these guys are either uncoachable or they're just
not the kind of guys that I want in here.
Because for you for you to get rid of three
three guys offensive line, you know, I mean obviously they're

(36:01):
not that good, but when you start getting rid of bodies,
and last year, I mean we I don't know how
many times we had, you know, offensive line, Uh you know,
people were hurt. Uh just I was just wondering if
you can explain it to me and I hang up
and listen to him buss Day.

Speaker 5 (36:16):
All right, thanks, see Steve, I'm first off, all for it. Yeah.
Second off, their offensive line was a detriment to the
football team. Three is they got a plan. I'm gonna
tell you from my not from from my vantage point
having been in those teams, and watch how they get
rid of players they brought in the new coordinator. First off,
the verbage, it's not because they can't handle the system
or the new guys, well are they gonna be handled

(36:38):
the new coaches? The coordinator's coming in comes from the
Sean McVay system, which is the Kyle Shanahan system, which
is the system that Bobby Slowak was in. The verbiage
will be pretty similar with a little touch of Yeah,
Nick Cayley's it's Nick right, Yeah, Nick coach Kayley's uh,
which hit with his touch on it? What I what
I fully believe happened. One is, let's start with Tunsil,

(37:00):
the guy. Seventeen penalties is inexcusable for a hack, let
alone a pro bowler who's a good player. He's a
good player. He's not a great player. I said he yestually,
he's good player, and Washington got better having Tunsil. But
I'm gonna tell you what, he stays undisciplined there. Dan
Quinn's head's gonna explode on in Washington. Saint dude, you've
got to be more disciplined and more committed in the offseason.

(37:21):
But I believe he's an upgrade for them. But you
needed to move on a second, a third, a fourth,
and a seventh. Absolutely. I'll take that Hall twice today
and twice on Sunday. So that one and he was
gonna ask for more money. He's gonna get paid a
two million per penalty, okay, And he's a good player,
but that's about what it's going to be. So I
would have moved on from his ass too. Good player,

(37:43):
as you can see, one really good player doesn't make
five guys great because they couldn't block me in the
pass protection most of the time. And the other two
and anybody else that's going Kenyon Green is a bust.
Now he may turn into a good player somewhere else.
Here in Houston. The guy wasn't good and couldn't stay
on the field, had to move him. And you got
a safety that you needed because you lost Eric Murray.

(38:04):
So there's two. And then you know when you when
you lose whom I'm missing on that group, who's the first?
Jack Mason a guy and he said, well, Depth, they've
got a plan, Steve, I promise you there is a plan,
and they brought some bodies in. But there is a plan,
whether it's to trade for somebody to move up in
the draft to use these assets. And it's not a
great tackle class. They're moving Titus Howard to left tackle,

(38:25):
Fisher's going to play right tackle, and then they got
to get what's important the interior for CJ. Strad SONA
what they did, I guarant asked you. Kaylee came in
and watched tape and so did the offensive line coach
and said, this dude's not any good. That guy can.
He may be good somewhere else, wh I'm talking about
for us, that's not the performance, the attitude, the approach,
the nastiness that I need, and they're moving them out

(38:49):
and it's nothing personal. The fact is you don't fit
what we're trying to get done here. And I don't
listen if an average player can play better than a
guy who's getting paid more played the g I was
not getting paid as much, and there's something to do
with hunger. I think this team was too laxed. I
don't think they were at offensive line. Apparently they weren't
coached very well because whatever they are doing on the

(39:10):
practice field carried over and then toxicity. Apparently, at least
that's the talk in their offensive line meeting room. Clear
them out, and I'll tell you what the guys that
are here, I wouldn't feel safe if.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
I was you.

Speaker 5 (39:22):
This is a performance. It should be a performance related business,
not a potential related business. And an offensive line I
had got time to bleed and they're running them out,
and I'm all for it. Give me the dude who
will fight and scratch for you and kick ass for you,
as opposed to the dude who says I'm gonna be
good or I'm gonna jump off side seventeen fifteen, eighteen, twelve,

(39:44):
ten times, and every year lead the league at penalties. Yeah,
tell them you're going to take a half a million
dollars away from every time he jumps off side. His
ass will stay on sides. So I got no problem
with it. And you know what, I want to coach.
That's just as nasty as my offensive line. They got
away with two much last year apparently because they were
as undisciplined as anybody. What they're doing now, not only

(40:04):
do I subscribe for it, I'd pay for the subscription
for what they're doing on the offensive line. Move their
ass out if they're not willing to go out there
and do what they're supposed to do. No sacred cows
on this offensive line. And they showed it last year.
And that's Tunsil included.

Speaker 7 (40:20):
Yeah, their new offensive line coaches Cole Popovich, who was
the assistant offensive line coach last season, so we got
a promotion.

Speaker 5 (40:26):
And he also probably sat there and watched. What he
learned most is what not to do right, And if
he was here and he's not even a new body
watching tape probably said now, and it gets down to it.
If you're the Texans, are you going to overpay for
Tunsel to keep him when he wants more money and
didn't play great football? He'll test out on Pro Football Focus?
Just fine, Nah, brother, I know we got to go

(40:48):
to break. Yeah, let's get to the seven o'clock hour.
Continue this discussion about the Texans.

Speaker 5 (42:06):
Good morning, Yeah, sir.

Speaker 3 (42:09):
A question for Sean.

Speaker 14 (42:10):
Could you tell me who you think the greatest halfback
that ever?

Speaker 5 (42:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 15 (42:14):
The greatest halfback that ever came out of USC.

Speaker 5 (42:17):
Opinion, I've got I can you know the names from
Reggie Bush and Mike Garrett, both Heisman Trophy winners to
I played with what I think is as good as
there ever was at SC and Marcus Allen first two thought,
Yeard Dresser. The best running back ever at SC is O. J. Simpson. Yeah,
regardless what of you off the field? You're just talking
about on the field. When when you combine on the

(42:40):
field in college and on the field in the NFL,
YEP O J. Simpson's top three, top four of all time. Yeah,
he's the best USC running back we've ever had.

Speaker 14 (42:50):
Yeah, let me talk you about at Allen, Frank Gifford.

Speaker 5 (42:52):
You've seen him some pictures of him playing phenomenal. Nobody's
been the more more golden boy than Frank Gifford at
the USC, he was a trojan and uh uh, you
know he had a Frank Gifford was everybody's you know,
golden child, and not only at SC, in the NFL
and broadcasting. Frank had everything your good looks and smart
and was a hell of a player.

Speaker 16 (43:12):
Yes, yeah, let me answer you one final question, U O. J.

Speaker 15 (43:17):
Simpsons And he had all those troubles with those murders
had later on. Did you ever hear of the NFL
with Drolan is a Hall of Fame award? Did you
ever hear any thing about that quote? I've never heard
of any anybody had their hall of fame taken.

Speaker 6 (43:31):
Away from them.

Speaker 17 (43:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (43:32):
Well I don't think you can take it. I don't
think you can take it out of there. I still
think all that stuff's in there. But at SC he
was a persona not grot her for a while and
that cut me deep because he treated no pun intended.
I didn't mean to say it like that, you know,
and thank you for the call. Is when I got
to campus.

Speaker 9 (43:47):
O J.

Speaker 5 (43:47):
Simpson treated my family and maybe yes I had, and
so it was so broken when when he saw that happening,
it was so gut wrenching just to go through with Yeah,
you're thinking, man, hey, and you really are at the
time thinking, I'm taking OJ couldn't have done this because
there was no football player that turned into broadcast. You
want to talk about the golden child of sports media

(44:12):
when OJ was a broadcaster. He was that guy. So
I was that was like so gut wrenching to see.
But I don't think they're taking it out of Hall
of Fame.

Speaker 8 (44:19):
But he was.

Speaker 5 (44:20):
He wasn't overly welcome on campus for quite and I
don't know when he died if he was. But they're
not taking his stuff out of the Hall of Fame,
and they're not taking his Heisman trophy out of USC's
Heritage Hall.

Speaker 4 (44:32):
Hey, can you do me a favorite?

Speaker 7 (44:33):
Can you tell me who the best safety was Ronnie
Lott for the Minnesota Vikings ever ever? Paul Krauss? Can
you tell me who the best strong side linebacker was
for the Seattle Seahawks.

Speaker 5 (44:50):
I'm probably gonna go with Harry Hatchet Asses, Okay, great
player University of Maine.

Speaker 4 (44:56):
Can you tell me who the best shortstop ever to
come through was?

Speaker 5 (44:59):
Dude?

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (45:00):
Other than that guy?

Speaker 7 (45:02):
Oh yeah, yeah, you know Jeremy Penya. Name one player
from from the University of Maine, Jeremy Penya. Name another
player not Houston, go to Maine? Or where do you
go that Rhode Island? He went somewhere in the northeast,
Jammy Payne.

Speaker 5 (45:14):
I'm gonna say the one guy I remember from Maine,
Billy Swift Pitcher. Am I right or wrong? Did he
go to Maine?

Speaker 6 (45:21):
Old?

Speaker 7 (45:21):
Yeah, Jeremy Penne, University of Maine. I'm sorry, who was
that Billy Swift? Billy Swift, He's Taylor No, but I
think that he was the main guy, Billy Swift.

Speaker 5 (45:30):
He went to the University of may. That's the only
player outside of Payne that I knew ever went to
the University of Maine. I'm sure there's more.

Speaker 7 (45:35):
That's uh, what are we doing? He just liked from
old school questions due cut him from slock. Come on,
why he was old school that he can't see?

Speaker 5 (45:45):
He just he just know I preferred here, So I
have to look in my dea. We just wasted three
minutes show because you random dude wanted to know about
that last back for USCO. Why because he didn't ask
about Soul. Rather, no, I would rather Brandon tell us
about his chicken fetini ow frame of the last and
about him getting a new microwave. That's my dude. Come on, hey,

(46:06):
this is your exit interview. Okay, don't all the way
out in Corson. Does he hurts me to listen? If
you're sliding into my d ms, talk about the Trojans.

Speaker 4 (46:21):
Just DM you on Facebook.

Speaker 5 (46:23):
And while you're at it, let's let him let Sean
know that he still hasn't had to be back.

Speaker 4 (46:27):
But it's fine. So what added me back on Facebook?
It's fine, dude, No wonry about it.

Speaker 5 (46:30):
You know what I'm going to do as a gift.
Oh thanks, well for me, I'm talking about my gift.
Oh yeah, gift to me, right, not my gift to you.
Your gift you give me to hitting that? What is it?
How do you accept it? It says accept on it.
I need to look into that.

Speaker 7 (46:46):
Yeah, I think maybe at I think a thirty we'll
talk about the best running back to ever come to
you through the University of Florida not named Emmett Smith.

Speaker 5 (46:53):
How about that? You want to do that? Yeah? Maybe
John L. Williams. Maybe we'll just go, you know, will
go all throughout college. You know, what Maybe it's a
lesson to you to learn the history of sport, right.

Speaker 7 (47:06):
Trust me, I've learned more in the last three years
on this show things I didn't know. I mean, when
it comes to movies, uh, music, life, sports, sports is
probably a lot of pulls more?

Speaker 4 (47:17):
Yeah, who pulls more? That's the most important part.

Speaker 5 (47:18):
Oh, there's no doubt. Yeah, whoever sits in this chair
when I'm when I'm done, who pulls more? Is done?

Speaker 6 (47:24):
Is it?

Speaker 5 (47:24):
Oh? Yeah? Unless you want? Do you want me to
indoctrinate the next person with who pulls more? What do
you think can they? But if I don't, they can
hang it. I don't think they better do the tale
of the tape if they all say oh, Sean, if
they play it, then then guess who Yeah, you cancel
it done, see you later. No, I don't cancel the
who pulls more? Guess what he does?

Speaker 1 (47:40):
Run?

Speaker 5 (47:41):
Run him?

Speaker 7 (47:42):
Yeah, you gotta go, You gotta go, oh Man seven one, three, two, five,
seven ninety, John nog anywhere, We'll get to you next

let's go to John.

Speaker 5 (48:37):
What's up? John?

Speaker 4 (48:37):
Thanks for holding buddy. What's happening?

Speaker 18 (48:38):
Hey?

Speaker 12 (48:39):
Hey, good morning? Yeah, Hey, with all the stuff that's
been going on with the Texans, you know, getting ready
to get ready of Ken Green and uh and Tunsil?
Does that free up some capspace for we can it
does make a play? Yeah, So you know, I'm hoping
we can make a play for BLA. I'd love to
get Ronnie Stanley or the other I would like to

(49:01):
see this.

Speaker 5 (49:01):
I mean center position. There's Drew Dolman with the Atlantic Falcons.

Speaker 12 (49:05):
I mean he's like ranked, I think, like the fourth
best center and he's got a lot of upside. I
mean he's only twenty seven years old. I mean I'd
like to see him bring on somebody like that, and
is that doable? Now they've got this cap space available
to maybe make a play for one of those guys.
That's That's what I'd love to see.

Speaker 7 (49:23):
Yeah, So with John real quick, I believe I read
yesterday from I want to say it was Aaron Wilson.
Either way, the cap space they freed up around fourteen
mil by moving Tunsel nice, so they've they've got some
wiggle room. And they've also restructured contracts of Aziz al
Shaire to free up cap space. There was one other, yeah,

(49:45):
Nico Collins. That was the first one. Yeah, so they've
got some Yeah.

Speaker 5 (49:48):
Listen, if you were I'll tell you this, John, if
you were in position, or if if you had a
chance at Ronnie Stanley, you know what you do. You'll
move you you will move space around and find a
way to get him on your roster. Ronnie Stanley's better
than the guy that was here. He is much more disciplined.

(50:10):
And but they're gonna right now, Titus Howards, you're starting
left tackle today. Whether that stays there or not, Yeah,
I get it. But that's where that's where you're at
right now. Yeah.

Speaker 12 (50:19):
I'm just wondering if all this maneuvering that they're doing,
if they're setting something up like this, you know, because well.

Speaker 5 (50:26):
Don't you think, don't you think, John, something's in the
offing because of all the I do and you don't,
you don't. You don't get rid of that many guys
and one's a first round picked, the others a Pro
Bowl player, and all of a sudden just sat there
and say, hey, what we have in house was good enough.
No it wasn't. So what I don't know what it is,
but something's going to happen on the offensive line that's
going to make you go wow, Okay, now I see.

(50:48):
I assure you. That's what I'm thinking too.

Speaker 12 (50:51):
Yeah, I was just wondering what your thoughts were, because
that's what I'm That's what I'm thinking. They It would
be great if they could bring one of those guys.

Speaker 5 (50:56):
Down, absolutely great, yep.

Speaker 12 (50:59):
Yeah, Okay, that's that's it. I wanted to ask I
wanted to ask about that.

Speaker 5 (51:03):
So thanks guys with you brother, thank you appreciate. I
think there's a I think there's a bell cow happened.
There's some kind of bell cow move gonna happen. I
don't know what it is, and not sitting in those
meeting rooms, we can guess and speculate. The John's right,
there's a bell cow move. But it's not just one
bell cow move. It's the depth of five cats and
the and the guys that come off the bench so
you can rotate. That's what will strengthen your team. If

(51:26):
your offensive line is stout and good, the rest will come.
You already got players in other positions, but it just
goes to show you look around the defense and look
around the perimeter. They've got some players now from Mixing
and Collins and and and uh Christian Kirk and c. J.
Stroud defense loaded. What's missing an offensive line that gives

(51:48):
you it's almost it's almost we just talk about culture
change in the building. It's also when you walk down
the tunnel on Sunday and you know, if a fistfight
breaks out on the field, we're kicking your assy now. Defensively,
I think they can fight it. I think they think
they can whoop anybody. Do you think this team right
now believes the offensive line whoops anybody. No, that's why
they're making changing moves, right, That's why they're making moves. Listen,

(52:08):
they're they're they're built like heavyweights, box like then they
box like welter weights.

Speaker 7 (52:13):
Okay, that's they got to fix that. Yeah, on the
offensive line. All right, So we're gonna get back to Texans. Uh,
next segment because we've got to go through there's an
article that was released that talks about a toxic offensive
line room. So we'll get to that, but that's next.
Since it is a steak out, you know how it
goes in the steak out? Do you see what Southwest
Airlines did tell me?

Speaker 5 (52:33):
Next? Are we wait?

Speaker 4 (52:35):
We're in the steak Why did I think that?

Speaker 5 (52:37):
Man? If we your thing? Have we been on the center?
Were just started? Okay until twenty eight?

Speaker 12 (52:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (52:42):
Yeah? Did I see? You know what's south there? Southwest
they changed a bunch of their policies customers now have
They're not they're not changing their policies to be like
Spirit Airlines, are they? Yeah? Oh they are?

Speaker 7 (52:53):
The customers now have to pay for their bags, which
Southwest Airlines didn't charge for.

Speaker 5 (52:58):
That was one of their great unique things other than
open seating. And they get rid of open seating, literally
the two things, and they're gonna start charging you month.

Speaker 4 (53:09):
Yes, yes, they got crushed after releasing this.

Speaker 5 (53:15):
Well, what made them special, good customer service, cheaper flights, quality,
made you laugh on the plane. You know that the
flight attendants were funny. You could get your own seat
if you got there, and you didn't have to pay
for your bags. And now they're doing it also what
makes them different now? So like I just well you
know why I don't like flying. Yeah, I googled Southwest

(53:38):
Airlines waste and went through some things. This guy said
you were my preferred airline. There is officially zero reason
to fly with you. Your fares are expensive, but I
got free bags and I could pick a good seat.

Speaker 4 (53:48):
It's no longer worth flying with you.

Speaker 5 (53:51):
So for me, by the time you go through all
the crap you got to go through and deal with
people wanting to fight and people angry, and everybody's irritated
on a flight, you know, leave a day earlier. Well
I can't make okay great? Then you can't. Then you
go ahead and fly and deal with it. Now, you
know why I like to get my car and see
the world. I'm on the John Madden thing, dude. Yeah,
you know what I'll sacrifice getting there one day. Yeah,

(54:16):
Now I understand if you got to fly international, I
can't drive to Hawaii where my son's getting married. So
I'm gonna have to do it. Yeah, but but but
I got news for it, and be okay, you're gonna
have to hop on a plane. Man, Oh, I'm not afraid.
It's not afraid, you know what I mean, Grab a
gummy and hopefully set in the big seats and be
left the loge. So I don't you know, what do

(54:38):
you do? I always say this, what value you bring it?
And I'm gonna tell you what to fly now? For
a full family is a is a small fortune. And
then they said, well book it out a year in advance.
Who knows where they're going a year from now? Right, Hell,
you don't even know what you and I don't know.
You don't know what you're doing tomorrow at eleven o'clock.
Why right, that's my point. So yeah, well they that's

(55:01):
what made Southwest Airlines specially they had good customer service
and the rest of it, but now you just jumped
into the fray and you're like everybody else.

Speaker 7 (55:08):
They had a chief transformation officer back in September release
an article in which he said, we're more likely to
lose money if we start charging for bags. Uh Now,
an analysis showed that Southwest would lose more money from
pastor defecting to rivals if it started started charging for

(55:29):
bags than it would make from the feest. So what
did Southwest do? They fired that guy and then announced
yesterday that they're going to start charging for bags and
for seeding.

Speaker 5 (55:39):
Well, that's gonna go on. That's gonna go over like
a naked stripper in a southern church. Okay, what a
bunch of good luck? Did you fly Southwest? Plenty of
probably flown Southwest since you know, because you're doing Dallas
in here, you go to the other airport, you know,
whether it's Hobby here or love Field there, easy and

(56:00):
easy out boom, especially if you're flying on those short
two hours to go. I've flown Southwest over the last decade,
probably more than any airline. But now if I can
I just leave a day early drive to get to
stop at small like cool stops on the way, get
food along the way. I like to see the country.
I'm at the data. I'm not in any hurry to
get anywhere if I have to sacrifice the day of

(56:22):
vacation to be in a vehicle. I like driving. Plus,
I don't like the plus you get any act tode
And when you walk around, aren't you thinking that somebody's
gonna be rude to you on the flight or do
you got to say somebody sits next to you that
I always look at this slight attendant's mad. They're having
a bad day, and most of them I understand they
got to deal with some customers that suck. But just
the lines park all that stuff. Now, airlines don't listen.

(56:44):
I do get why airlines. If you had the money,
wouldn't you be in a private plane snob? Without question?
Absolutely I would with I would be a private plane snob.
And if you had a billion dollars, the first purchase,
you walk out the door and go by yourself a
G eight hundred and you fly wherever you want on
your time and don't have to the stress alone is

(57:04):
worth paying the money if you got, If you got
that kind of coin, or you can go buy a
private flight. You know, when you fly once every three months,
you save your money. It's worth it. I would be
I'm not a snob about I'm not a beer coffee stop.
I would be a major snob if I had the opportunity, definitely,
and not arrogant wise, just for convenience. Give me that
we're spending extra money for? Yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 7 (57:25):
Yeah, man, hey real quick? Also was I could take
my dogs on a private flight. Yeah, yeah, they can
hop on with you real quick, set up in the
co pilots exactly. Ronnie Stanley was already signed.

Speaker 5 (57:38):
Yeah, I knew that he want what do you want?
I thought he was talking about trading for Rodney stand
just signed a big deal. He was signing last week
right or two weeks ago? Four days ago?

Speaker 10 (57:47):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (57:47):
Okay, so it was last week? There you go. Yeah,
I thought by the Baltimore Ravens like a three year deal. Yeah,
they weren't let him out of building. No, he was,
he was a he was going to free they kept him.
I thought the signing was was late last week, but
maybe it was earlier than that. Would you say four
days ago or four Yeah? Let me double hit yeah,
four days ago. Okay, so so when when when? Because
Andy had not Andy, but John had been talking about

(58:08):
Ronnie Stanley pre Ronnie Stanley signing. But I know we
all got caught up and you know, uh, well me
and you and your stuff. I thought that when you
sign somebody that they thought he could get a sign train,
they're not trade Ronnie Stam, they're not. They just with
Derek Henry and Lamar Jackson, we're showing that up. Yeah.
And also a guy like Ronnie Stanley be nice. But
those guys don't fall off a turn up truck and
land in your lap. And also.

Speaker 7 (58:31):
DeAndre Hopkins yesterday signing a deal to go to the
Baltimore Ravens one year deal.

Speaker 5 (58:36):
Yeah, and that his career is probably going to be
spent signing one year deals from here on right, to
just go and get some money and yeah, and if
it happens and resign and do that. But that's what
he's operating on. And listen, good for him. All the
years he didn't have the quarterbacks he wanted, and he
had Watson here for a minute, but to be able
to go what was it Tennessee where he didn't have
the quarterback you wanted right, and then got to Mahomes

(58:58):
won there long enough and then gets to Lamar Jackson
the end of his career, the Deandres getting some pretty
damn good quarterbacks. Good for him, yeah, Ronnick Stanley that guy.
The guys like him don't sit around long. No, and
Baltimore wasn't gonna trade him. Yeah, on't they signed him,
no doubt.

Speaker 12 (59:12):
Man.

Speaker 7 (59:12):
All right, let's let's look into this article that was
released yesterday in regards to the Texans offensive line and
offensive line room.

Speaker 5 (59:20):
Was there some toxicity going on last season? That's next.

Speaker 7 (59:25):
The Shawn Salisbury Show continued. Chamber buddy of mine. Uh boy, yeah,
text me. I met him through work, not this job,
obviously a different job. He texted me, he said, Hey,
saw on Twitter a guy asked you who wears their
hat backwards? I was in the Marine Corps for nineteen years,

(59:46):
and I'm currently wearing my hat backwards. Tell the dude
to stop taking everything so serious. Whoa, hey, military guy man,
nineteen years? Good for him, damn rights.

Speaker 4 (59:55):
So that's who wears their hat backwards?

Speaker 5 (59:57):
Billy? Whoa you and Billy in a fire right now. No,
I'm a messenger and Billy are tighter and mouse nuts
and Billy fine right now?

Speaker 4 (01:00:05):
Nineteen years.

Speaker 5 (01:00:05):
Many don't Bury lead the military. Our military guys are awesome.
Nineteen years, twenty years. You feel good about it, crazy man,
you feel good about you and Billy's battle. That's a
long time. I think you and Billy probably need to
hash it out.

Speaker 7 (01:00:18):
Yeah, it has nothing to do with me. I'm reading
the messager. Stop gaslighting people. I'm just the messenger.

Speaker 5 (01:00:27):
Hey, listen. As I'm here is to do is antagonize. Yeah,
all right, here we go.

Speaker 7 (01:00:31):
Let's talk about uh, let's talk about the Texans offensive
line room. So this is from Albert Breer, a senior
NFL reporter.

Speaker 19 (01:00:40):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:00:40):
He works for the MMQB NFL on Prime Insider, NBC
Boston ninety eight five, the Sports Hub.

Speaker 4 (01:00:47):
He's been in the NFL media scope, if you will,
for a long long time.

Speaker 5 (01:00:54):
Sure has so.

Speaker 7 (01:00:56):
In this article, he says, the second question is what
happened with Tunsel that made him expendable. Tunsall, to be clear,
as well liked in the Texans building. That said, he
isn't a tone setter, and the offensive line room in
Houston last year went the wrong way, becoming borderline toxic,
which adds context to the trade of Kenyon Green and
the release of Shaq Mason. That's part of why the

(01:01:18):
Texans figure they probably wouldn't give him a top him
a third top of the market extension in twenty twenty
six after paying him in twenty twenty three year sixty
six million and again in twenty twenty three three years
seventy five million.

Speaker 4 (01:01:34):
He also said.

Speaker 7 (01:01:37):
Brears dialed in trust. Yes, and he also says so
with his thirty first birthday in August. Houston spent the
past few weeks quietly measuring trade interest in Tunsil and
eventually found the right deal.

Speaker 5 (01:01:47):
Excuse me, the right deal.

Speaker 7 (01:01:48):
The price they received for the ten year VET is
roughly the equivalent of a late first round pick in
the form of an aforementioned swap of the tackle and
fourth round pick for a third and seventh round selections
this year and a second and fourth rounders in twenty
twenty six. That gives them resources to find Tunzel's replacement,
if not someone on the roster such as Titus Howard
or Blake Fisher.

Speaker 5 (01:02:08):
Both of them will start at tackle if the season
started today, But I don't think they're done making moves
to get somebody here, and I listen, you question it
all you want, I would have. I'm ready for a
change that a left tackle as well.

Speaker 19 (01:02:23):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:02:24):
He's inflicted problems on that offensive line.

Speaker 7 (01:02:27):
Offensive line room in Houston last year went the wrong way,
becoming borderline toxic.

Speaker 5 (01:02:32):
That's usually the one position on your team that has
no toxicity. It's just a lot about each other. Yeah,
so it when that happens, there's something wrong. And it
also tells you that the coach didn't control the room right.
And how many times problem with that?

Speaker 7 (01:02:45):
How many times do we discuss what's going on at practice,
what's going on in the locker room, or guys being
held accountable.

Speaker 5 (01:02:51):
I know most offensive linemen, meaning the offensive line, so
their respect there for their coach. Most of those coaches
are just as I mean, they're hardcore. You got to
be th skin. But that's as thick as skin to
room as there is on a football team, those offensive
line guys. And I can tell you this that if
you let it get out of hand. As a matter
of fact, I rarely I can't remember the last time

(01:03:12):
I heard an offensive line room being toxic. I don't
think i've never any team. It may be receivers are
having a problem they want the ball or dB yeah yeah,
I mean you get that a lot. Or this quarterback
is competing against the other one. He doesn't want to
mentor him all that stuff, which you don't get. Hey,
the left guard and left tackle or mad at each other,
or it's toxic in an offensive line room. Most offensive lineman,

(01:03:33):
I know, no matter how tough they are, you know what,
not only respect, they fear their offensive line coach because
he's just as nasty as they are in a good way.
I'm talking about it. I mean that affectionately. That is
the one group you should never That's the one group
that no coach that address the team says, Hey, in
that offensive line room, we got some problems. Those guys
you just you just turn them loose, and they got it.
They're kind of their own world. And it's a good

(01:03:53):
thing when that is the reason. Get him out and
get him out fast, because I got news for you.
If the offensive line rooms toxic, you're in trouble. And
even though they made the playoffs just on sheer ability
and a good head coach and good culture, but it
tells me something too when Damiko Ryans preaches culture, We're
going to do it the right way. Here. Found out
there's toxicity. What do you do. You get rid of

(01:04:14):
the coordinator, get rid of the offensive line coach, and
you get rid of a bunch of lignmen. And you
want to know how to fix it? You and listen.
You know with offensive linemen, you know how sometimes say, man,
you got to cut the head off the beast. It
just grows back. When there's toxic throughout our organization, offensive
line room. When you cut that that part off, it's
not toxic. It literally goes away. So I don't know
who it was or what it was or why it was.

Speaker 6 (01:04:36):
I just know this.

Speaker 5 (01:04:37):
If that t word an offensive line are in the
same sentence, you've got to move on.

Speaker 7 (01:04:42):
Yeah, that's what they did. From three of them. Good,
let them go be somebody else's problem.

Speaker 5 (01:04:47):
Three of them. Man, I have no problem with it.

Speaker 4 (01:04:50):
I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised that this is this
one at all.

Speaker 5 (01:04:53):
And not only that in the meeting room, their offensive
line performance showed it. Yeah, but just Blase Man, not
very good just okay, yeah, just not very good play.
Just inconsistence, especially in the beginning of the season. They're
terrible and well. They're also inconsistent against basic looks on
the offense. On the defensive front man can't just block

(01:05:13):
basic stuff. They put up some highlight highlights. They put
up some all twenty two of Laramie Tunsel from this
past season. Dude, on basic stunts. He was atrocious, and
he's gonna go get more money. Dude, I'm talking terrible
seventeen penalties are gonna go get more money. He's a
good player. You're in a k you can walk through.
I don't care if you're off the best offensive line

(01:05:34):
coach in the world walk through that door. You and
I are having an argument telling me he's a great player.
I didn't think it then, I don't think I think
he's a good player. Yeah. If he if he'll show
up in the offseason and be more disciplined, you got
a chance. We can put him in the Okay Top five,
top six, top seven. Guy. Listen, he and Trent Williams
and Ronnie Stanley's in the world. They're dressing in different

(01:05:55):
locker rows, Dude, when it comes they're different in area codes.
When it comes to that. Sorry to tell you, they
just are y. Yeah, it's no doubt.

Speaker 2 (01:06:01):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:06:01):
All right, let's continue to Williams would bench himself if
he had seventeen penalties. Yeah, but it wouldn't happen. Yeah,
let alone seven, meaning it wouldn't happen as he wouldn't
have seventeen penalties. Then go year in and year out.
Lammie Tonsil led the league in penalties himself. Let's I
continue to talk about the offensive line for the Texans.
They added uh someone yesterday? Could he start?

Speaker 4 (01:06:24):
That's next?

Speaker 2 (01:06:28):
The Salisbury Show continues.

Speaker 5 (01:06:31):
Could you imagine this show?

Speaker 7 (01:06:33):
Because you madagine we're going to show for an hour
and a half two day, two out of the five
days this week.

Speaker 4 (01:06:39):
Come on, man, and right, yeah, yeah, right here, let's go.

Speaker 5 (01:06:44):
But it's hey, dude, when you get the time slot
that has games on it, it's a good blessing in
bonus to have for let's see, game's gonna start at twelve.
They'll probably probably going to the A team as well.
We're doing something wrong here, Salz. Yeah, six to ten
in the morning. There ain't no games going on now. Yeah,

(01:07:06):
tough changing for anything.

Speaker 4 (01:07:08):
Maybe a little jealous, that's all.

Speaker 5 (01:07:09):
But who's counting count he's keeping score? Yeah, going on now,
I'd like to have those days we are or keeping score?
Is there a miles in your pocket? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:07:20):
There is?

Speaker 5 (01:07:21):
Yeah, field you couldn't. You couldn't.

Speaker 4 (01:07:26):
Yeah, I figures figure it's gonna be something along.

Speaker 5 (01:07:29):
Those once again. Let me, I gotta reiterate. I'm gonna
tryfect you're too. I'm a three. Do you point after
your point? You go big ups? What do you do? Oh?

Speaker 12 (01:07:42):
No, you do that?

Speaker 4 (01:07:42):
That's your stop, man, that's not.

Speaker 5 (01:07:43):
One, two three. I'm a I'm a one guy up one.

Speaker 1 (01:07:47):
You don't.

Speaker 5 (01:07:48):
Some people go double double the double index for I
just don't.

Speaker 4 (01:07:53):
Are you giving big ups or you just going to
your number one?

Speaker 5 (01:07:56):
It's kind of both. It's right here, so if you're
if you're looking at me, you can say, well is
number one? Well, my crooked finger says, well, maybe he's
number seven from the way you're looking at it, and
then it's kind of a point. But number one ever,
so yeah, yeah, that would trifect on the chest. Yeah. Yeah,
But you're a two. You're a two pounder. That's it.
You're a two pump guy, two pump jump.

Speaker 9 (01:08:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:08:14):
Yeah, I don't know, but tell me how it is.
Six words, man, six words.

Speaker 7 (01:08:23):
I get mine dog, that's actually seven, but gots to
get your saying, Man, it's you, not me.

Speaker 5 (01:08:28):
I mean, it's me, not you. It's me not you.

Speaker 7 (01:08:31):
Get back onto the phone line seven one three two
two five seven. I ained talking about the Laramie tunsel trade.

Speaker 5 (01:08:36):
What's up, Nick?

Speaker 19 (01:08:38):
Hey, guys, I was I was out of town and
I'm just kind of hearing about all this stuff. It
sounds like we got a pretty a pretty good.

Speaker 5 (01:08:45):
Deal, right your tunsil. It's a great deal. Yeah, what
you're out of town and Twitter doesn't work? The hell? Nick?
I got you, brother, I hang up and hang out, man,
I know what that say, be present with his kids.
That's a damn good answer. Yeah, man, good. I wish

(01:09:06):
Sean would hang up and hang out here on the
show sometime.

Speaker 20 (01:09:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:09:08):
I don't blame you. Want to get off Twitter, hang
with those kids, but then come back to us and
we'll we'll inform you. Yeah. It's a good deal, man,
a good deal getting him out.

Speaker 2 (01:09:15):
But what so, what's what's the timeline then?

Speaker 21 (01:09:18):
Because now we we have a new a new coordinator,
right yeah, and we got to rebuild the old line, Like,
what's what's the timeline. Now it just seems like a
two years ago we were like we're going to the
super Bowl, and now it's like a crap.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
You know what?

Speaker 6 (01:09:33):
What now?

Speaker 5 (01:09:36):
You mean? Are they have they taking a step back?
I I think they'll end up. I don't think you're
taking a step back. I think the one thing you know,
you add uh when you get rid of Kenyan Green,
you add a veteran safety. In losing Eric Murray defensive
sound man, you went out and got Christian Kirk. You
have Nico Collins. You've got to upgrade it tight end

(01:09:56):
or get healthy. There added probably another receiver. The three
the draft are still looking and you got mixed in.
You got Stroud, change the coordinator. To me, if they
do it, I think they're going to do meaning upgrade
the offensive line and go get it. I think they're better.
I don't think they're taking a step back. And well,
they've won the division two years in a row with
an offensive line that quite frankly didn't show up enough,

(01:10:19):
and they're trying to get that short up and they're
not waiting around. If you're not doing your job, they're
cleaning house. I don't think I still they're right today.
I don't think they're Super Bowl ready, but they were
one of fourteen that got in in one to seven
in the AFC. A few breaks and a few protection issues,
and who knows that they're moving on to the next round.
That's the next step. They're still a step behind Baltimore

(01:10:40):
and Kansas City and Buffalo, but it ain't a long step.
It's baby one, so they're closer. I don't think they've
taken a step back at all, and they've got all
these assets. Losing Tunsle doesn't hurt my feelings. Matter of fact,
I think it's going to be an upgrade in the
offensive line run eventually.

Speaker 19 (01:10:55):
And then we've got these picks now, so are we
So what are you saying now? Well, we're on the
board now, right, So what are we gonna do?

Speaker 5 (01:11:03):
I think that comes down to either your waiting. I
don't know when you're gonna use them, whether it's a trade,
whether it's a package them to move up to get
another dude, whether it's an offensive line. This is not
a great tackle draft depth wise, but you've got a
lot of arsenal now to move up and try to
find one that is good. So I think they're you
know they'll try to piece it together. They're not gonna

(01:11:25):
be the best offensive line. But when you get toxicity
out apparently that that's what was going on and lack
of production. I don't think they got worse. I actually
think with the assets that if they do it right
and I trust Cassario and Damiico Rans, I think they're better.
And now that does that mean super Bowl better? We'll
find out. They got to execute. But as far as
off season, I don't think this team. If I'm grading them,
I'm not looking back and saying, you know what, man alive.

(01:11:47):
They they're they're a D because they got rid of
tunsl I disagree. I think this team's upgraded, and I
think getting those assets was worth the trade.

Speaker 1 (01:11:55):
I do.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
Cool.

Speaker 5 (01:11:58):
Thanks, I appreciate it, Nick, good stuff. Nick. I like
that he was with his family. Good, get off, get
off social media. I'm with him a hundred percent. You
pick up your phone, was yeah I did. I'm just
looking to see if a Tounsil got traded back here.
He didn't. No, No, they said he had tons of
lightis yeah, that's well that's why I got traded. Yeah,
they won't go.

Speaker 4 (01:12:17):
You can't use that joke. Anymore.

Speaker 5 (01:12:18):
Man, Oh yeah, I can. When he jumps off sides
three times in the opener, up the commanders and then
Dan Quinn's head blows off, I'm gonna look up and say, hey,
by the way, Dan, relax, It's simple tons of lightis.
That's it man?

Speaker 4 (01:12:31):
For ten years?

Speaker 5 (01:12:32):
Listen, take it. Listen. Take one of those steroid packs,
one of those Z packs, and you'll be okay. It's
just a simple case of tons of lightis and uh, well,
you'll be okay. Sometimes tons of lightis gets you traded.
You know what I'm saying. If you got tons of lighters,
you get shipped sometimes because they can't. You know, what
are you gonna do? I'm cutting him some slack because

(01:12:53):
with tons of lightis sometimes it affects your equilibrium.

Speaker 4 (01:12:56):
So you jump off every game, so you start to
lean a little bit every game you do.

Speaker 5 (01:13:00):
Not how come I haven't heard a broadcaster like when
he jumps off side, say he must have a little
tons of itis. Wouldn't it be a great one? Oh
here's where, here's why I won't go away. If Titus
Howard's your left tackle and in game one at White
fifty White whistle blows we got a illegal movement number

(01:13:22):
with seventy one, seventy nine whatever times on the Texans,
still first down. You know, the broadcaster should say, oh,
case of tons of itis at left tackle. That should
be universal throughout the league. If a left tackle jumps
off sides, be pre stare. Yeah, the simple phrase is,

(01:13:42):
he's got tons of itis.

Speaker 7 (01:13:43):
Laramie tunsil jumping off sides once again, he must have
tons of lightis plumber.

Speaker 5 (01:13:48):
There you go, But you can apply it to anybody
because now he's he should become a gift tons of lines.
If a guy's leaning on his heels in the sad
white fifty.

Speaker 12 (01:13:58):
Is it not.

Speaker 4 (01:14:00):
Whistle blows? False start?

Speaker 7 (01:14:02):
We got a false start on the offense number seventy nine,
five yard penalty.

Speaker 5 (01:14:06):
Still first first yet exactly tons of lightis oh, it's
never going away.

Speaker 4 (01:14:11):
Kevin Harland, I bet would he would be the one
that to take that in there.

Speaker 5 (01:14:15):
He's bare chested banging his chest even after he had
tonsilitis he's drunk. Yeah, the guy is drunk, fair chested
banging his chest. Yeah, yeah, you know what, listen, you
got it. He's a good player. We we have a
little fun, but uh can't we can't have seventeen penalties
that'll get that'll make you expendable. Yeah, and so so

(01:14:38):
will wanting his third big contract. Seventeen penalties, third big
contract in about fourteen of those. Yeah, pre snap, pre snapped.
Yeah enough enough. Okay, man, man.

Speaker 13 (01:14:56):
The guy is drunk, but there he goes.

Speaker 5 (01:15:00):
Love it. He's the bare chested banging his chest, freaking love.
The guy is drunk.

Speaker 7 (01:15:06):
Oh, let's get the eight o'clock hour. Seven one three,
two one two five seven ninety is the number to join.
Now we're going to turn our attention to the Houston Astros.
Four questions the Astros must keep in mind while constructing
their roster.

Speaker 4 (01:15:19):
Cam Smith forcing their hand.

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
That's next KB Houston a TV HD two Houston and
the Rocket.

Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
Sports Talk seven ninety your home for your home teams,
make Houston Sports then number one presage on your car radio,
and then you would improved iHeartRadio app free never sounded
so good, Saulisbury.

Speaker 13 (01:15:48):
Oby Houston.

Speaker 2 (01:15:51):
Okay, let's do this.

Speaker 1 (01:15:52):
Sean Salisbury.

Speaker 3 (01:15:56):
To usc Troupes, longtime friend Shown Salisbury.

Speaker 1 (01:15:58):
Ryan Lima, go, this is the Sean Seals Very Show.

Speaker 7 (01:16:06):
Again right here on seven ninety, turning our attention to
the Houston Astros again. They're in action today taking on
the Nationals. You had Cam Smith saying talking to some
media members yesterday, said he was going to play five
innings in right field on the backfields yesterday, So basically

(01:16:27):
like an inner squad, maybe a little scrimmage, probably getting
some live hacks and live AB's, all that stuff on
the backfields for him. Then you had let's see chan
the Rome and Brian McTaggart both tweeting out that he's
going to play right field and d h in some

(01:16:47):
of the games tomorrow. So just like we said yesterday,
and it was just speculation from us, we could see
he might get some run in right field.

Speaker 6 (01:16:57):
Why not.

Speaker 5 (01:16:58):
Yeah, you're not going to take a scholarship away if
he doesn't play right field well or misses a ball.
But my guesses as an athlete, it's got some great
size and physicality. I would imagine he's a pretty quick study.
Let's see.

Speaker 7 (01:17:13):
So MLB dot Com put out an article Brian McTaggart
been doing it for a very very long time. Astro's
top prospect Cam Smith is going to get reps in
right field as Houston tries to find ways to carry
him on the opening day roster.

Speaker 5 (01:17:34):
Other than this, keep him on there for fifteen days
to get an extra year. Why wouldn't you exactly do.
We've said this for the last couple of days. I'm
getting to the point where I don't even care about
the extra year, right forget who cares to check that
with another extension when the time comes. I just to me,
we get so caught up in that, Oh what's on
the card. This is the way you have to do

(01:17:56):
it if they're considering it, and the only reason you
do it is for that. I just I think you're
telling the team that that's more important than us winning, yes,
and I don't like it. So camp Smith is going
to be the DH today excuse me, against the Nationals,
and then he'll be in right field in one of
the two split squad games Thursday yesterday, when he was
playing right field on the backfields, Guess who was watching

(01:18:17):
him helping him out? Probably Jeff Bagwell, God no, Dana Brown,
no helping him out in right field, helping him out
in right field? Current player, no, former former player? Right
fielder here. Somebody who's at camp is like an instructor.

(01:18:39):
Who is it?

Speaker 4 (01:18:40):
Michael Brandley.

Speaker 5 (01:18:40):
Oh nice, if you're gonna learn from anybody, man, Yeah,
he knows, he knows how to be a pro.

Speaker 7 (01:18:45):
Could you imagine if he would have stayed healthy his
whole career? Yeah, it would have been great to see him.

Speaker 5 (01:18:49):
Wow. Yeah, Well he's a good player even with being
you know, with all the injuries. Yeah, hell of a player. Yeah,
if he would have stayed healthy. Good guy too, huh Yeah,
just imagine he stays healthy. The way he's like a
career three internitter, he would have been a Hall of famer,
hall of famer and play a lot. There's no doubt
he was really good man, a lot of Yeah. So
he's uh in West Palm Beach helping out the Astros.

(01:19:10):
He was working with Cam Smith yesterday. Seven one, three,
two five, seven nine is the number to join. What's up,
Brando Brandon?

Speaker 4 (01:19:21):

Astros that you don't like?

Speaker 20 (01:20:48):

Speaker 5 (01:21:09):
I don't blame you with you, buddy, Okay, appreciate Brando.
We'll talk to you tomorrow. I got to dialed in. Man.
He likes them all. He likes them both all and
he likes all of them and Cam Smith. He likes
a bowl. I love my guy Man team.

Speaker 4 (01:21:24):
And I forgot to ask him how that microwave was
working at the rodeo.

Speaker 5 (01:21:27):
I think it works pretty good, I hope, so I'm guess.
I'm gonna guess it works pretty good. You wouldn't use
it to reheat chicken, though, I don't if cold fried
chicken is better than next day than heated fried chicken?
My chicken when you eat at the d when you
do it's one thing, but I I like cold fried chicken.
What's the what's the other weird thing that you like
to do?

Speaker 2 (01:21:44):
What is it?

Speaker 4 (01:21:44):
Something straight out of the is it?

Speaker 5 (01:21:46):
Oh my gosh, straight out of the can? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:21:48):
What is it?

Speaker 5 (01:21:48):
Finitch beats? Beats that beats with salt. Yeah, yeah, into whoa?
Pour him into a bowl. Beats are good for you.
Pour him into a bowl, load them with salt and pepper.

Speaker 4 (01:22:01):
Yeah, freed chicken?

Speaker 5 (01:22:03):
Yes, why would you heat? Okay, So let's say you
go get a bucket. Let's say you don't even make
it at home. You go from Popeye's, okay, from the
from the KFC. Let's say you go get original recipe
from KFC and you got a nice big breast. Who
doesn't like a nice big breast? Right chicken? Yeah, chicken,
that's what I meant. Did I need to really size

(01:22:23):
that your head breast right on chicken breast? Yeahah yeah
right right right yeah good, yeah, good, focus on breasts.
It's like, oh okay, nice big one. Yeah, cold served cold. Okay.
So you have your bucket, you know, your mashed potatoes
and gravey little coal slaw mixed into the mashed potato
and gravy, and then you can't eat fifteen pieces, right,

(01:22:46):
so you stick in refrigeratorick, stick in the you know,
in a in a baggie, so if she stays fresh,
or a container that has a nice top on, a
little tupperware okay, you sold or bought you're part of
the top wear business for your residual in cutting. The
next day you bring it out like for lunch. I
don't heat that chicken because it will not taste as

(01:23:07):
good cold chicken with salt on it. You heat the
mashed potatoes and gravy, grab the cold slough, and or
if you had some mac and cheese or whatever else
you got from those, you warm up the biscuit. You
gotta have a biscuit from there right and you eat
the chicken. Cold. Chicken reheated the next day is the
equivalent of taking a burger that you left in overnight

(01:23:29):
and reheating that the next day while it was soggy.
Don't do it. And the reason and I know that
sometimes will sean if you eat it right out of
the frigerator feels dry, put a little red hot on
the chicken, or just let it sit for a few
minutes where it just warms up, gets the room temperature,
and then you eat it like that with everything else hot. Yes,
cold fried chicken the next day. I'll tell you what's

(01:23:49):
even better cold fried chicken. Throw some potato salad with
that damn thing like you went to a picnic and
let it rip. You don't heat fried chicken the next morning.
With all that being said, I've got one question. Yes,
why are you buying yourself a fifteen piece meal? Well,
I'm not talking about it if you're I'm talking about family.
Okay for an eight piece because heat maybe three the
night before, and because I like fried chicken left off,

(01:24:12):
but I like cold with everything else hot unless it's
coalslaw potatoes. So and that serve cold.

Speaker 4 (01:24:17):
You know what's kind of underrated putting mac and cheese
in your mashed potato store.

Speaker 5 (01:24:20):
Oh no, dude, it's the same thing, mashed potatoes and
grave You know that that KFC that I'm talking about.
And you take a coal slaw and you like mix
it in there too, you see, you just it's you
cannot separate that on your plate. No, they just kind
of go together, right, and mac and cheese mixed in
with mashed potatoes and gravy. Dude, I'm all over. But
the fried chicken the next day cannot be heated. You
got to now where you may win if you want

(01:24:43):
to take the time to stick it on a pan
and warm it in the oven, not the microwave. You
may get away with fried chicken's lore. But I love
cold fried chicken the next day. That's what you take
in a picnic basket when you're laying on a you know,
when you and your guy are laying on a blanket,

It's no gamble at all. So you got four questions
for us? Huh uh huh what do you think? Let's

or about baseball? No, this is about life, about life,
all right, Let's see how we do. See on?

Speaker 7 (01:29:30):
Hang on, me got it in my I all my

Speaker 4 (01:29:43):

Man. All right, I'm bringing it, man, I'm bringing it.
I'm bringing it. I just want to stay here and rain.

Speaker 4 (01:29:52):
Here we go, all right?

Speaker 5 (01:29:54):
Is that dude? I didn't? Does it look to you
like I took a a gummy? No, I get a
day off? Do I need load management here? I'm here?

Speaker 6 (01:30:04):
Are I?

Speaker 5 (01:30:04):
Yeah? Ain't no load management when you're when you're dealing
with you to go to you know, a little nasal
what do we call it? Nasal drip?

Speaker 1 (01:30:12):
No?

Speaker 7 (01:30:12):
Yeah, that toos infection, sinus infection. We also known as COVID.
Is that what it's called. It's the same thing.

Speaker 4 (01:30:18):
Yeah, all right, well I appreciate if you put your
mask on.

Speaker 5 (01:30:20):
Thank you. Well I told you I got my clear one.
That's like the motorcycle shield that the just dip underneath.
But that really does a lot. Yeah, yeah that does.
But you know what it does. You know what it does.
It it makes sure the optics for people that are
watching and say, oh, they're in accordance with what's going
on the cord in accords with easey.

Speaker 6 (01:30:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:30:42):
So yeah, I'm good man. I sometimes you got to
show up and play hurt. Brian I don't know this
this what are you sus affections hit me twice in
the last two months.

Speaker 7 (01:30:52):
Well for me, dude, I was sick November, December, and
January three different times. And I never get sick. I
get sick one time of the year. It's when usually
when that first cold front comes through.

Speaker 4 (01:31:00):
That's it, dude. It hit me three times.

Speaker 5 (01:31:03):
Well, you know what you competed, didn't you. Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:31:04):
You damn every freaking day, Matt, damn rites you ready
to go through these questions?

Speaker 2 (01:31:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:31:10):
Is Cam Smith a realistic option?

Speaker 5 (01:31:14):
Oh no, No, he's not realistic. He is the option,
not just realistic. Should be a one of your easiest
decisions of spring training? Is him playing? Yes? Absolutely?

Speaker 7 (01:31:27):
Okay, So here is here's here's the details on that
year that we keep talking about. If Cam Smith stays
in the majors for longer than sixty days this season
but does not occur a full year of service time,
which is one hundred and seventy two days, Houston would
lose the chance to receive a compensation pick. If Smith

(01:31:49):
wins Rookie of the Year or finishes in the top
three of MVP voting.

Speaker 5 (01:31:54):
Okay, So here's here's another. First off, if you keep him,
he's staying, in my opinion.

Speaker 4 (01:32:02):
Play through it right. Yes, Then here's another part.

Speaker 7 (01:32:04):
Essentially, if the Astros intend to keep draft pick compensation
and play, they must either carry Smith on the opening
day roster or wait until September to summon him. Waiting
until September could also protect Smith from reaching Super two
status and earning a fourth year of arbitration eligibility.

Speaker 5 (01:32:20):
So when you weigh both put him into minors now
and hope and bring him back in September or put
him into majors now, it's not even question. So asked
that first question again? Ask it again?

Speaker 4 (01:32:30):
Is Cam Smith a realistic option?

Speaker 5 (01:32:32):
He is the option? Put him in right field. Let's
go play baseball. Okay.

Speaker 7 (01:32:36):
How much money is a factor after a winner of
remaining mindful of their luxury tag positioning? The Astros are
about five million under the two hundred and forty one
million dollar threshold. That's according to outside of proclamations, whether
they want to get any close or could influence some
initial roster decision.

Speaker 5 (01:32:54):
You also have how much many his influence a roster
on what on who gets cut or just is this
all camps? Questions.

Speaker 7 (01:33:00):
So you also have no, No, this is firstinty question
for roster construction. Older players on the on minor league
deals are in contention to make the club at either
second base or in the bullpen. So you have to
keep in fact the money aspect of it, because if you,
you know, you get some of these guys that break
camp and get onto the forty man roster, that means

(01:33:21):
they make the league minimum. So that's going to go
towards the tax the tax threshold. So uh, you also
have to.

Speaker 5 (01:33:31):
Yeah, that's that's the smaller contract guys making playing as
well as a bigger contract guy and you get the
same production Adam for less money. You know that answer.

Speaker 7 (01:33:39):
So you have excuse me, if the Astros want to
preserve the little uh tax space that they have, again,
you got to think about in season moves as well.
So if you want to keep that luxury tax space,
then you would have to look at names like Logan
van Way, Nick Hernandez or Luis Contres in the bull

(01:34:00):
pen or shay wickcamb on the infield.

Speaker 5 (01:34:03):
So and that seems like, see, that seems like a
harder decision than the first question you asked. Yeah, because
well if you creep into that a dollar, you're in
trouble right there, you go literally etched in c myth.

Speaker 4 (01:34:17):
Yes, all right, how flexible is this pitching staff?

Speaker 5 (01:34:25):
Now? We're assuming healthy now now, because well let's go
through the starting five.

Speaker 7 (01:34:30):
Well real quick, let me let me preface it by saying,
remember lancemcullors junior coming back from injury, and Caleb or
got hurt week one and he's still trying to inch
his way back, and Sean Dubin is hurt still he's
inching his way back as well.

Speaker 5 (01:34:44):
So how flexible? Yeah, since you're telling me now with
people that aren't healthy yet not as flexible as i'd like.

Speaker 4 (01:34:57):
Yeah, there's a little bit concern there, especially.

Speaker 5 (01:34:59):
In the there is. That's another reason why Forrest Whitley's performances.

Speaker 4 (01:35:05):
Epic epic has to be huge, no doubt. He's gonna
have to pitch and.

Speaker 5 (01:35:08):
Relevant as anybody right now when it comes to what
matters to this team in a bullpen.

Speaker 7 (01:35:13):
Yeah, obviously you have Brian Remember we interviewed Brian King
Astros fan solid good due to Brian Abray, You Josh Hater,
Taylor Scott, and then you've got names like Barrett or
excuse me, Bennett SUSA. He's got minor league options remaining,
so you could carry him, move him down if needed.

(01:35:34):
Other than that, man, you're gonna have to have some
one of these guys step up.

Speaker 5 (01:35:37):
Yep. Somebody that you didn't think was going to make
the roster's gonna have to make the roster and compete. Okay,
And here the falls under the money thing and the
versatility as well.

Speaker 7 (01:35:46):
Here's a big one. We talked about this briefly yesterday.
Who's going to be that last guy to make that
opening day roster? What is most important on the Astros bench?

Speaker 5 (01:35:58):
Are we talking most important position, most important player, all
of anything? Anything? Anything?

Speaker 4 (01:36:03):
I mean, I think it goes behind in hand, position
wise and player wise.

Speaker 5 (01:36:06):
Yeah, the most important thing on the Astros bench, I
guess it's healthy depth in the bullpen or more than
one Swiss army knife as a player. I don't know.
I guess I'd say i'd lean towards pitching because the
injuries and say that first off, some of these guys

(01:36:28):
are going to have to be able to spot start
and be a bullpen guy. I would say it's depth,
and quite frankly, there there's gonna be questions on how
good is the bullpen with some of the new guys
if you're trying to stay under the under that threshold
as well, how about depth in the bullpen to sustain
in front of me? Deep depth in the bullpen because

(01:36:49):
you know that people are going to miss starts and
also people are going to misappearances. Yeah, that's what i'd
go with.

Speaker 4 (01:36:54):
That's a key one.

Speaker 7 (01:36:55):
And then also excuse me, just like we discussed yesterday
position player wise, who's going to carry that final spot?

Speaker 4 (01:37:01):
What are you gonna do with du Bond, Ben Gammel,
Brendan Rodgers.

Speaker 5 (01:37:04):
And it goes back to your second question about the
money that that only when you mentioned a Shae Whitcombe
guy as opposed to somebody else who's put it this way,
if they're sitting on the fence and they got a
guy who's gonna help him in the threshold and a
veteran who may not help them, the threadhold threshold is
making more money but not getting the production you want.
Your question it you might go younger, less money, Yeah,

(01:37:25):
and it will affect.

Speaker 7 (01:37:26):
It because you're also gonna have Victor carrottin. He's gonna
probably be your first battle anywhere, and she's never done anywhere.
And then John Singleton will be right there as well.
Plus they have a very heavy right handed lineup, so
you need another left that you got Victor Carrotini switch
hit or John Singleton.

Speaker 5 (01:37:39):
That's just two. It's gonna come into play.

Speaker 7 (01:37:41):
I'll come into play. It has to, yeah, And that's
those those questions we're put together. Chandler Rome Chandler roame
beat right for the Athletic cover in the Houston Astros.
Check out at the ny Times dot com, which cover
carries the Athletic. All right, let's get a break Hunter Brown,
how did he do yesterday?

Speaker 5 (01:37:59):
That's next? Hey guys, Trajanwealth dot com local trusted financial fiduciary,
Woodlands and sugar Land for your free review. You're going
to call them. I'll give you that number here in
a minute. It's a Saint Patrick's Day right around the
corner right next week. And four leaf Clovers. If you're
thinking four leaf clover is going to get you through retirement,
I would think again. March madness. Who doesn't want to bet?
And have some fun with March Madness and do it.

(01:38:21):
But if you're counting on a bet, on March Madness
and you're hitting that, Hey, I want to bet this
game in March madness, go to Vegas while all fun
and games, because I like to do it too. I'm
not betting my retirement in my future, whether I'm forty
sixty or somewhere in between, I ain't betting it on.
I'm not counting on that to be my retirement. To
keep me in retirement, probably not a wise move. But

(01:38:42):
if you're looking for a wise move and you're looking
for expertise, Tradian Wealth has it, and they are transparent again,
local and trusted, and they are a fiduciary, which means
they are obligated to you. Right, that is an obligation.
This is a fiduciary, which means your portfolio is important
to them because it's yours. And that's who tration wealth is.
So if the experts in four oh one K risk

(01:39:03):
tolerance obviously, and the key is when you get to retirement,
are you secure? Are you peaceful? And are you secure
enough to know that I don't have to come out
of retirement. This is it, but you don't want it
to be well if you don't want a lot of
ifs around your retirement. You want to make sure it's
done so you can do all the things you wanted
to spread your wings, have fun, be it the family,
do the things you've worked so hard all these years

(01:39:24):
to protect, and Tradian Wealth can help you do that.
It's Trajanwealth dot com. Experts in the field and veteran
led and family owned. That's exactly what you want. And
somebody that if you have questions, they got answers. So
don't bet your retirement on a four leaf clover. I
would think that a free review and talking to Trasian
Wealth is a good place to start. It's three four

I love you guys we know in the station.

Speaker 7 (01:41:03):
So yeah, hey, yeah, great stuff, Frank Martin Tuesday, don't

Speaker 5 (01:41:10):
That's not a bad idea.

Speaker 4 (01:41:11):
Sean Triple and.

Speaker 5 (01:41:12):
Frank Martin, Frank, if he'd retire from coaching basketball, comes
sit in the chair for five days a week, then
I would tell you what would he'd be a fire?
He'd be if you put him on like on TV
and college basketball as Hey, Frank, you'll put you on
YouTube and let him go? What did Bob Huggins and
him on a show and let those two guys go?
What did he get in trouble for again, for being

(01:41:33):
too fiery or something. Didn't he didn't didn't, wasn't there
like a parent? That was Yes, what a shock? Right?

Speaker 17 (01:41:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:41:41):
What did heat man? And guess what, Frank's not going
to Frank loves coaching those kids. Yeah, always has every
place he's been. I got news for you. You want
Frank Martin to have your to coach your child man,
if you want to, if you want it done right
where he gives you life lessons. And I always tell
the story when Frank's son asked him about the coach
and wanted, I know why I went playing in. Frank said,

(01:42:01):
I'm a dad, go talk to the coach to his
own son. You know some will helicopter it and peretell
why my son playing. Frank told his key, you go,
you go talk to the coach, come back and we'll talk.
You play, you want to talk, but he's your coach.
I'll help you any other one, but when it comes
to what's going on on this team, you need to
go in and get that explanation from your own coach.
Love coach Martin Man, Frank's the best. Love him. Yeah

(01:42:22):
he was.

Speaker 4 (01:42:23):
Let's see, he was fired after ten years in Kansas.

Speaker 5 (01:42:27):
He've been its Kansas State, He've been in South Carolina. Hell,
he had South Carolina in a Final four. Yeah, yeah,
right right, Yeah. Frank's a life coach, a hell of
a coach. Those kids, when they're done playing for him,
will always come back. He's a tough love guy, but
I'm gonna tell you what his heart and soul is
into making sure those kids are coached right and taught right.

(01:42:49):
I'm gonna tell you what. Whenever Frank decides basketball, he's
had enough, which is where I hope nowhere anywhere near
that stick Frank on one of these college basketball shows
on television to let him cut it loose, yeah, and
give you life stories. Yeah, come on now, son, He's
off the charts.

Speaker 7 (01:43:03):
Frank Martin was criticized for his sideline shouting, fiery, scowling demeanor,
and he was even suspended by the University of South
Carolina a game for shouting profanities at one of his players.

Speaker 5 (01:43:16):
Oh well, oh you need to think about that, dude.
Do you cust the college kid out so you didn't
hit him? Frank? Yes, need it cust the college kid
out who probably was cussing somebody else out and Frank
kent' oh we're going to suspend you man, and then
oh look at that. Oh yeah, controversy because he's got

(01:43:36):
a scowl on his face. Yeah what how soft? Oh dude,
it's pathetic, man, It is absolutely pathetic. And you know
what I love about Frank still coaching him hard, still
got the scowl and still gets after it. Frank has
not let oh you see you know what? Put it
this way? Frank Martin getting suspended. Oh well yeah, matter
of fact from him and the bottle to suspend him.

(01:43:58):
And you know what, it tells me he cares more
than the person that suspended him. Yeah, okay, so, oh okay,
we're not at a seventh grade Catholic school where he's
cussing somebody out at a private school that the kids
at junior high. And Frank would knew that, why because
he knows the kid's not on scholarship in the sixth grade.
But I'll tell you what you're grown ash man, life
lessons by Frank Martin, and put it this way. Give

(01:44:22):
me Frank Martin, Give me Bob Huggins, give me Bob Knight,
give me those coaches. Give me Roy Williams, Tom Izzo
who all cuss him out and get after it, even
the great and revered Mike Krzyzewski, army guy. You know
what they do, Go to one of their practices, Kelvin Sampson,
go to one of their practices. Those guys are all

(01:44:42):
cut from a similar cloth, which is love the kids.
If I can't coach them hard, you got the wrong cat.
Don't come to my program. And when they all leave here,
they all come back to the program and hug the
coach first. Yeah. So, and then we got one right
here in town who is this same way. That's exactly right.
Find me a soft coach, and I'll show you somebody
who doesn't win much many games. You're not gonna win money,

(01:45:03):
no doubt. It's doctor Holly. Holly.

Speaker 4 (01:45:05):
Appreciate you holding.

Speaker 5 (01:45:05):
Good morning, Good.

Speaker 15 (01:45:07):
Morning, guys.

Speaker 5 (01:45:08):
How are you'all good?

Speaker 23 (01:45:09):
I was just you were talking about somebody needing to
step up in the bullpen. And there's a guy I
haven't had my own the last couple of games.

Speaker 1 (01:45:15):
His name is a.

Speaker 23 (01:45:16):
Stephen Oakwart, and he's been in a handful of games,
and he has a zero e r a seven strikeouts,
and so that might be a guy to keep your EWN.

Speaker 14 (01:45:24):
And one more thing I wanted to mention, I'll anybody
else and.

Speaker 5 (01:45:27):
It comes pretty cheap too, Holly, No doubt about that,
all right?

Speaker 23 (01:45:31):
Absolutely absolutely, And he uh, he's been impressive, you know,
Like I say, he's got a zero era a seven
strikeouts and I think it's six innings, so I mean
small sample size. Yeah, but that's what you get in
spring training. And if you're looking for somebody to step up,
you know, you might want to look to a guy
like that also too.

Speaker 14 (01:45:47):
I was just wondering if y'all talked about this, I.

Speaker 24 (01:45:49):
May have missed it.

Speaker 23 (01:45:50):
If if Kim Smith makes this team, where are you battening?

Speaker 14 (01:45:54):
Mm?

Speaker 4 (01:45:55):
Appreciate it, Hollie, thank you.

Speaker 5 (01:45:56):
I'm gonna take Holly. That's a great point. All those
as as always is as we've had. I think Ronnie
points out how great our female callers are. Its intelligent,
then that shouldn't be a shock we got in that.
No great sports, but we know that and they're smarter
than me and you. So yeah, great point, Holly. I
I would here's here's from my lineup if I had
my druthers. Good words there, right.

Speaker 4 (01:46:17):
Did you say Tony Brothers Okay, give me right down.

Speaker 5 (01:46:22):
Yeah Brothers produced too and that brother Big Brothers Pizzas. Yeah,
there you go, all right now, Two A leads off
plays the left field. I'm gonna hit Paradus in the
two hole. You feel good about that? Or if pain
is paint right to me, let's just say in pain
is looks like he's he's yeah, it looks like he's

(01:46:43):
ready and ready to go, So either way, but let's
just say parade is for a start, I'm gonna hit
yord On three, although the temptation to hit jord On
two would be there. I'm hitting uh, Christian Walker in
the four hole. I'm gonna hit us in five hole
probably right now, PAINI in the six hole, depending, but

(01:47:04):
if this continues, hit him six. Cam's hitting in a
seven hole to give me some leverage and some some
power at the back end of the lineup that can
drive the baseball. And then then then then you go
to the it's Chaz Dubon Myers. Whoever the center fielder
and second base, second basement are, that's eight and nine.

Speaker 17 (01:47:25):
You do you do?

Speaker 5 (01:47:27):
Myers probably hit ninth. So whoever your eighthitter is, that's
my first seven and I feel pretty damn good about it,
and I'll put him in the right field, and you
can platoon Dubon, Myers and Chasmo with center field. Sometimes
in right field when somebody needs a break at third,
I can run cam Smith the third and if you
need a break in left field, or I'll two Vey

(01:47:48):
move the second base, you can put Chasmo in left
field or whatever you want to do it. That's what
I'm doing. My first seven is pretty simple in my mind.

Speaker 7 (01:47:55):
Yeah, I think for me it would be al two
ve Payinia your don Christian Walker, Jiner, Diaz Paradis.

Speaker 10 (01:48:03):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:48:03):
If cam Smith starts in the right field, he's your
seven hole, and then you have damn whom I met,
Vonn mcra Dubon and McCormick right. Actually, no, I'm sorry.
Dubond would hit nine o'cormick a for me, I'm not starting,
Jake Mars. I don't give a damn how good is defense.
They're gonna play.

Speaker 5 (01:48:20):
That's what you do. But you know they're gonna play.
They're gonna so they're gonna hit. And I'm with you.
So if if if I have Parades in the two hole,
pay he hits in the six hole. I think you can.
You can. If I have pain in the two hole
and he keeps doing what he's doing spring training, I
have no problem putting Paradis in the six hole. Gives
me some leverage back there to length, no doubt either,
big length and if you want power length. If cam

(01:48:40):
Smith doing what he's doing, now you get a guy
at the bottom of the order that says and Paradis
is a better put right now, so you may get
to him, say, man, I got some run production at
the back end of the line, which they're gonna desperately need. Yeah, yeah,
for sure, no question.

Speaker 7 (01:48:54):
Yeah, we saw it last year again, was struggling with
runners of scoring position.

Speaker 5 (01:48:58):
They need to figure out the only the only question
I have if cam Smith is there, he's hitting in
my first seven, is who my two hitter is? Yeah?

Speaker 17 (01:49:04):
That for me.

Speaker 5 (01:49:05):
The rest of it, I'm good.

Speaker 4 (01:49:06):
You know what, they're probably gona They're probably gonna put
yord On there.

Speaker 5 (01:49:08):
And if that's the case, then you tell if you go. Now,
let's look at it from that point of it real quick.
Al two ve jord on Christian Walker in the three hole, right,
Christian Walker three D is in the four hole. Painy
in the five hole, right, parad Us in the five
either that five to six hole, seven hole. Hell if

(01:49:29):
cam Smith early on the first month rakes zero problem
slamming him in the fifth in five hole. But right now,
it's okay. Let me see some pitches at the back
end and and do your thing. But if you want,
because they love yord On hitting in the two hole,
if they do, then you're gonna get that. Yiner and
Christian Walker three four. I don't care who it is. Yeah,

(01:49:50):
if you want more bats read and I.

Speaker 7 (01:49:52):
Get it, probably put Yer in the three hole, I think,
and Christian I'm okay with that either way.

Speaker 5 (01:49:59):
I'm okay with that. Lighten Us at five, paint me
at six, yeah, and cam Smith at seven. Yeah, no
problem here. And then have you noticed, no matter what
you do with the lineup, cam Smith's in it. Yeah exactly.
I mean just look at it, man, like they're they're
gonna give him every opportunity. Why not he's gonna fail
when he's gonna succeed. Let's see how he handles it,
especially this year. Yeah, man, you got a depth this

(01:50:20):
year in the outfield, why not all for it? Brother? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:50:22):
Seven one three, seven, ninety.

Speaker 16 (01:50:41):
Good morning, gentlemen.

Speaker 10 (01:50:42):
How are y'all to say?

Speaker 5 (01:50:42):
We're good? Buddy?

Speaker 4 (01:50:43):
What's on your mind?

Speaker 1 (01:50:45):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (01:50:45):
Not a lot? The first stelf I wanted to say.

Speaker 16 (01:50:47):
I listened every.

Speaker 10 (01:50:48):
Morning from the West Coast, and by all accounts, you
sound like a really stand up guy in the Lima.
So I wanted to wish you all the best in
your future endeavors.

Speaker 5 (01:50:58):
And uh, well it's yeah, so appreciate that.

Speaker 4 (01:51:01):
Ste Are you in Oregon?

Speaker 16 (01:51:05):
I'm in Portland.

Speaker 4 (01:51:05):
Yeah, Portland, man, So you're up o'clock in the morning,
huh fortunately.

Speaker 14 (01:51:10):
Yeah, Yeah, I grew up in Spring.

Speaker 10 (01:51:11):
I went I went to Client Ox so I'm I'm
a local boy, but I've been out in Portland for
almost twenty years now.

Speaker 5 (01:51:16):
Wow, man for you.

Speaker 7 (01:51:17):
Yeah, I went to I went to Spring High School,
so very familiar with cliin oak Man right down the road.

Speaker 5 (01:51:22):
Yeah, appreciate that's the luck to you.

Speaker 10 (01:51:25):
I just love y'all show, So I'll miss you so badly.
But I just got a couple of questions. I want
to know why no one's really talking about Jordan having
a place in left field like he did last year
and having Cam do a little bit of DH this
coming up yere if.

Speaker 5 (01:51:42):
If he ends up making the squad.

Speaker 10 (01:51:44):
So I wanted to see what what y'all's thoughts were
on that. And then secondly, I thought CJ. Gardner Johnson
was more of a free safety if I'm not mistaken,
So I was just kind of wondering how he would
sit in the secondary with healing, Bullick moving forward, next
coming up here and beyond. I'll hang up and listen,
but like I said, best to lect to you and

(01:52:05):
uh and I love this show, Sean. I'll be I'll
be listening to you all.

Speaker 5 (01:52:08):
Right, Steven. I appreciate him man every day. Thank you, brother,
appreciate it. I'll get Brian can give his Here's what
I think. I think there'll be times when Cam Smith
does d H on a day Jordon's off. I think
it comes down to long term, long term UH sustainability.
They just don't want to play Jordon in left field,
even though he can. He's more than serviceable out there,
and he hits well when he's playing out there. I
think you'll see him out there some, but they'd like

(01:52:31):
to limit that. Hints why you're going to see the
you know, al Twov out there most and the versatility.
I think they want him at DH to preserve it,
even though you're like, well, come on, man, he loves
to play it. I think that's why that's the only
read that's There'd be no other reason than to think
he said, well, hell put him out in left field
and and and d H one of these big guys
and and uh and let out to make it back
to second base. There's a reason for it. So uh

(01:52:53):
and it won't shock me if cam Smith on a
day that needs day off and you want to make
sure that both catchers one's not a DH and one's
not catching, that you have one that's getting his rest,
that Campsmith does the HF if things go as planned.
So that will not surprise me one bit if that happens.
And I just can't wait to see the growth of Campsmith.
Put it this way, Jordan could be in the locker

(01:53:14):
room and hit three hundred and drive in one hundred
runs and that's going to go up his production Harvey
and hit thirty forty home runs. So wherever he plays,
so hit. But I think that's part of it. I
think it's just a health thing. And if you're willing
to try al Tuova out there, it's not a production thing,
it's a it's just preserving it. Yeah, I think it is.
And on the football side, Carter Johnson, is that what

(01:53:35):
he asked about? What I say, yeah, c J. Gardner Johnson,
I'm saying a coach, Carter, he's been a really good safety.
He can play both and he's also been a guy
who can cover out of the slot at times too.
In his career. I think the most he's versatile. That's
why he's not Sometimes you get a guy that's free safety,
free safety, free safety. He's versas enough to play free safety.

(01:53:56):
He's verse enough to play strong safety, and if you're
in a four wide situation or an empty backfield, he
can come out of there and cover. He's good enough
to do.

Speaker 1 (01:54:05):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:54:05):
He's not true corner, but he's versatile enough. That's why
they got him because his versatility gives him a chance
to move around and play both positions. But I wouldn't
worry about his truest position because he's pretty solid at them.
And Gardner Johnson he had production in Philadelphia and what
was he at before that, New Orleans? Yeah, and was
very good there, and New Orleans used him in that

(01:54:26):
position quite often in the slot, so covering slots, so
he'll be able to do both.

Speaker 7 (01:54:30):
Wouldn't it make the most sense to just slide Petrie
over to the nickel and then have Bullock and CJ.

Speaker 4 (01:54:35):
Gardner Johnson back there.

Speaker 5 (01:54:36):
There's no doubt. And then you put the question is
when you have it and you're using him, can you Well,
I'll tell you what it gives you. Also, it gives
you a great Petrie in the run game too, because
he can come down and play. If you're in a
dying personnel where you bring in two extra dbs, you'd
like to stay physical, which means safety is a better
tackler than a corner. The Petris, Gardner Johnson, Bullock guys

(01:54:57):
who can come down. Bullock's a true ball free safety,
but you bring guys down, which makes it It's like
if you have a tight end in the game and
he can block and also flex out and becomes a
receiver and you're not substituting. They still think that that's
regular personnel defensively. So if you have the ability to
have a physical presence, even though he may be smaller
than a linebacker, but he can still mix it up.

(01:55:19):
Now you don't have to take him out and worry
that well if they go big and run the ball,
I still got a safety down who can protect us
against being pushed around When you got a dime corner
who weighs one hundred and eighty five pounds. So, but
the physicality that gives put it away, that trifect That
trifecta safeties Petrie and you have the versatility to use

(01:55:40):
them both. And Bullock's proven that is a free safety. Yeah,
dude's nasty, pretty cool. He has got such great anticipation
and awareness of where the football is. I love it.
I like this deal because it gives you veteran presence,
keeps you depth, and gives you the versatility for those
guys to interact and to involve them in coverage where

(01:56:01):
you don't have to say out, I got to bring
a corner in to cover the slot that becomes uprouble now,
which you don't want is Petrie covering like we saw
last year Devonte Adams. You don't want to get to
the point where he's got to cover their best receiver,
or you don't want to CJ. Gardner Johnson. You want
their ability to be able to cover somebody. But I
ain't putting a safety on Jamar Chase in a football game.

(01:56:22):
But you do like the versatility where they can do both.
And CJ. Gardner Johnson gives you that.

Speaker 4 (01:56:25):
Stingley Junior last year five interceptions, CJ.

Speaker 7 (01:56:28):
Gardner Johnson's six interceptions, Kaylen Bullock five interceptions.

Speaker 4 (01:56:31):
They're all going to be playing in the same freaking
and second Eric Wood.

Speaker 5 (01:56:34):
Gardner Johnson also brings there some attitude and a ring
on his finger. Yeah, which is a good thing. That
is a very good thing, yep, especially to get into
that excuse me, that locker room. Excuse me.

Speaker 7 (01:56:44):

(02:05:41):
he's always smiling.

Speaker 10 (02:05:43):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (02:05:43):
He was always in a good mood, always had upbeat positivity.
It has been like that from the jump all the
way to today. He handles himself with class. He does
a phenomenal job for us on the behind the scenes,
if you will, and he just fits in perfectly. So
to you and and Cynthia, you guys have done one
hell of a y'all with your son.

Speaker 17 (02:06:01):
Hey, thank you so much, man, we really appreciate it.

Speaker 5 (02:06:03):
And Keith to say one last seing about your kid.
If I ever find myself going somewhere else in my career,
I hate to tell you. I know he's your son,
but he going with me. I promise you that. Okay
about taking it.

Speaker 6 (02:06:18):

Speaker 5 (02:06:18):
Might want to talk to you, Yeah, we figured that.
Good morning, Sean, Good morning.

Speaker 24 (02:06:24):
We enjoy your show, enjoy what you guys bring to
the show, and it's been.

Speaker 5 (02:06:29):
A pleasure Brian, just hearing you.

Speaker 24 (02:06:32):
I tell you, one morning I had to pull over
laughing at the Jerry Jones joke.

Speaker 14 (02:06:36):
Man.

Speaker 24 (02:06:37):
You know we're cowboard fans down here, and I mean
I had tears in my eyes because you are spot
on with Jerry Jones. Okay, but I'm gonna mission Brian,
and thank you again for everything you've healthy man, you
obtain at this time, and we wish you nothing but
the very best.

Speaker 5 (02:06:56):

Speaker 24 (02:06:57):
Thank you too for giving him May a chance and
many you stay strong. You guys are doing an awesome job.
Keep us laughing, keep us rolling. And Brian, I'm gonna
miss you. We're gonna miss you dearly.

Speaker 7 (02:07:09):
Thank you so much. Cynthia and Keith, you guys are amazing.
Thank you for such sure you want to leave dogs.
I'm just trying not to cry.

Speaker 5 (02:07:15):
I'm gonna be honest you guys. Hey, thank you so
much for the call. Yeah, we appreciate you. Thank you, guys.
Thanks mom. By that what a good well. I can
see it doesn't fall far from the tree. What happened
to you man? Triply?

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

Speaker 5 (02:07:27):
I know what happened? Boy? What a dude. We can
put them on the set right, let them stay it here.
Can they both prepare us? I mean, can they both
come in here all the time. They did a great job, brother,
and they are exactly right about you, Brian, about you.
It's uh, what a blessing it's been from you guys
revitalized my career as far as energy.

Speaker 7 (02:07:46):
Man, Man, I thought I was gonna be able to
keep it together, but tomorrow is gonna be tough.

Speaker 5 (02:07:49):
Man sucks. Yeah, hey, but you know what, great family,
don't they? Yeah, no doubt, it's pretty obvious in about
five minutes why we wanted him in here. Yeah. Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:08:00):
Remember we got off that call and I said, Sean,
he's our guy.

Speaker 5 (02:08:02):
Yeah, there's no question.

Speaker 7 (02:08:04):
Dude didn't stop smiling the entire time. Man, what a blessing. Yeah, No,
I hate to see you go. Man, I know it sucks.
You know what, but the Shawn Salisbury Show is gonna
roll on and you guys kill it as always, And
whoever's gonna sit here is gonna do a great job.

Speaker 5 (02:08:18):
Great, but it's not gonna be the same. Chemistry can't be.
You don't learn chemistry either got it or you don't.
And in no time in my career, as anybody sat
in a chair opposite of me where it's like, I've
had some great ones nationally and stuff. It's been You've
been special, tripley special. But it's about you and tomorrow
it's just it's your day. Brother. It's a This show
would not be what it is without you two and

(02:08:39):
with you leaving, it's gonna be like I said, don't
go on, and I'm gonna keep here and keep you yet.
But listen, it's like losing a really. I mean, you
got to find somebody replace him, and that's gonna be
their job, meaning the guy who sits there or gal
who sits there to do what they do. You've been
phenomenal and it's gonna see to see you go. You
see how people feel about you. Yeah. I get messages
from Buddy saying, damn, you got to do what's best

(02:09:01):
for you. But you will be missed, dude, and you
left in a lasting impact on this show. M he's
gone fast too, I know, man, it's gone fast. That's
gone fast, all right. Seven one, three, five, seven nine.
He got a lot of guys that want to get
in on some text and stuff, some astro stuff. Whatever.

Speaker 7 (02:09:16):
We got about forty five minutes left on a Wednesday
edition to Shawn Salisbury Show.

Speaker 1 (02:09:24):
Back to the Sean Salisbury Show.

Speaker 5 (02:09:28):
Meat Loaf Dude, he had more energy in a celebrity
softball game than I and we we was playing, Dude,
it was I was like, man, Loaf for wants to
win this damn thing. RP. Yeah yeah, Love loaf Man.
When did he die last year? No, Loaf's been dead
for a couple I got it. Sounds so harsh. I'm
gonna say minimum of three years.

Speaker 4 (02:09:46):
Uh, January twenty twenty twenty two.

Speaker 5 (02:09:49):
We're in twenty twenty five, just past three years. I
remember loaf Man, Meat Loaf dog dude. He had some
energy too, man, he was he wanted to win that.
I was like, just it's just so fun, Like I
don't know what to say because you Meat Love, but
we're just playing so off off, okay, we're just having
a blast. That's crazy. Gary, good morning, Hey, good morning.

Speaker 9 (02:10:07):
Two out of three ain't bad. One of the best
rock and roll songs ever ever sung. Great song, Yep,
that's for sure. Hey, listen on the Astros lineup real quick.
Here's my version of that. That new guy they got
playing third is at Paradis.

Speaker 4 (02:10:21):
That's right, that's Paradis East Paradus.

Speaker 5 (02:10:23):
Yeah, and I was watching the game yesterday and they
said something.

Speaker 9 (02:10:27):
I know he took a lot of pitches, but if
I unless I misunderstood them, they said that in the
Major leagues last year he saw more pitches at bat
than anybody. So my feeling is because al Tuove leads
off and he always swings at that first pitch, and
the big boy he gets in there, heat even warmed up,
and he's got to go up and look.

Speaker 5 (02:10:47):
At pitches right off the bat. So my my feeling
is it's almost a no brainer.

Speaker 9 (02:10:51):
Put Paradis second because he's gonna watch a lot of pitches,
and that way the big guy when he's in there
at third, and I think he feels more comfortable at
third anyway, Uh, let him back third. So I just
thought I didn't know if y'all heard that about Paradis.

Speaker 5 (02:11:04):
Yeah, what I had in the two hole I understand.
And go back to two years as rookie here, Payne
was really good in the two hole. They want a
lot of games with him. But I think naturally it
kind of fits Paradus naturally because he doesn't chase as much.

Speaker 4 (02:11:17):
It's a great point by you, Gary. I appreciate that
that call.

Speaker 1 (02:11:20):
Gary.

Speaker 4 (02:11:21):
Start to Roger, what's that?

Speaker 6 (02:11:22):
Roger? What up?

Speaker 14 (02:11:24):
Brian water Sean, what up?

Speaker 8 (02:11:26):

know already gave yourself eighty five yards of the plus that.

Speaker 10 (02:11:36):
I know.

Speaker 8 (02:11:36):
That's not to say other players aren't gonna make mistakes,
but I get I guarantee it. They're gonna be seventeen
and from.

Speaker 25 (02:11:43):
One back from one cat. That's just not gonna happen.
I really enjoyed what the textives are doing. They have
to finish the job, though they do have to get
a guy at left guard with a with a stud
as a that's an animal to protect stub. But I
think that this is this is something we haven't seen
from this organization, which is accountability, hard core accountability.

Speaker 7 (02:16:00):
Well, let's get to break next. The Shawn Salisbury Show
continued seven one, three, two two, seven ninety Don what's happening?

Speaker 2 (02:16:16):
Hey?

Speaker 14 (02:16:16):
Man?

Speaker 3 (02:16:16):
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (02:16:17):
My little brother?

Speaker 5 (02:16:18):
What's that?

Speaker 2 (02:16:18):
I hate the man?

Speaker 22 (02:16:19):
I hate to see you guys leave.

Speaker 2 (02:16:21):
But I want to tell you right now.

Speaker 5 (02:16:24):
You know to have a.

Speaker 22 (02:16:25):
Successful team, you know, you have to have chemistry, knowledge
and personality. And you too, YouTube nail it man, you
are three for three and all that. Man, I just
want to let you know that you will be nearly missed.
The shoes that's gonna have to feel you is gonna
be about a size twenty two shoe because I don't
think anything less than that's gonna fit it.

Speaker 4 (02:16:44):
I appreciate that. Don, Thank you man. I saw you're
gonna be umping tomorrow.

Speaker 22 (02:16:49):
Yeah. I'm on the road right now. I can't tell

road right now. But uh hey, this Cam Smith guy man,
uh man, he he's a real deal.

If you ain't in that lineup, we need to we'll
be got right. That's what we've been saying. Amen, right
on and the other, and I want to tell you
the other one.

Speaker 22 (02:17:08):
I love the instant replay because you know, most umpires,
like myself, you know, we'll miss five to eight pitches
per game. And with these guys getting six instant replays,
you know, three each, you know that that makes it
a little bit better for us because we don't have
to be perfect because we are human beings and a
lot of people don't know that, but yeah, we're not

(02:17:29):
a robot.

Speaker 3 (02:17:29):
We are humans.

Speaker 22 (02:17:30):

dearly missed.

Speaker 5 (02:17:56):
I don't have the VID. Yeah, I didn't get to
my button quick enough. A kind of call me off card.
I I do too. I like the human element, but
I think eventually you're going to see the change. Oh,
they're gonna they're gonna force it on them.

Speaker 8 (02:18:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (02:18:09):
And the hey, man, that automatic ball strike system looks
like it's been pretty successful so far in the games
that they're doing that.

Speaker 4 (02:18:15):
They're using that in spring training.

Speaker 5 (02:18:16):
Well, listen, hard to get it wrong there, right, Yeah,
hard to get it wrong there? Yeah. I do like
human elements. I know, I know we work right all
the time or close to right, but you just never
know when the wrong one is gonna affect a deep game, right.

Speaker 1 (02:18:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:18:31):
If being right is wrong, I don't want to be
If love and you is wrong, that's what I want
to be right. That what you're trying to say. That's
what I meant that. That's what you said.

Speaker 7 (02:18:40):

Speaker 5 (02:19:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:19:04):
If loving you is right, then I want to be wrong.

Speaker 5 (02:19:11):

the porch. If you can't run with the big dogs,
go to the kitchen. Yes, go cook, Yeah, I go

Talk to Dosakis, what's up do Sakis?

Speaker 16 (02:19:36):
Hey, Brian, Before I forget what to say on behalf
of my family and myself, I don't want to get
a little emotional, but I'll benge you only one time
in person and obviously the one time I think of
you and Shannon kind of FaceTime me. I just want
to thank you for being not only a friend to

(02:19:58):
my son, but a little friend, and that's very hard
to find. So I'm just wishing you the best. And
also maybe I mean talking to my son. One day,
I will take my son Easton to go see your
team Plankers. He also plays the tournaments on weekends. So
I'm wishing you the best. Prayers from our familar to you,
and also I remember Sean when you first had a

(02:20:23):
show with him that you put him on. It was
it was a lot of fun.

Speaker 1 (02:20:27):
Man.

Speaker 16 (02:20:27):
I remember when you you remember when the data when
you tested him, you gained some homework. Hey, yeah, Brian,
I'm going to I want you to watch this movie
and I'm going to quit you the next time. It's
been a lot of fun.

Speaker 5 (02:20:38):
And he came back with his homework done and has
never looked back and been great the whole time. You
damn right. I wrote every one of it.

Speaker 16 (02:20:46):
And those kind of myself being a management and hiring
people in the airline basis, those are very hard to find.
So I think you did the right decision and which
he is the best. God bless you guys. And maybe
tomorrow I requested there's a song. I don't know if
it's about the young one war week or I think
war or uh Diana russ Wanter friends before.

Speaker 5 (02:21:06):
Maybe that's that's I think that's Stevie Wonder, Dianne Warwick
and Dion Warwick. I said, Deon Warwick, Stevie Wonder, and
there's one other keep smiling. Yeah, that's that's friends of
for it's three it's I think it's three war Dion
Warwick Stevie Wonder and.

Speaker 16 (02:21:25):
Somebody else and nothing is Elton Johnas and I'm just
take him away.

Speaker 5 (02:21:29):
I think you're right. I think you're right.

Speaker 16 (02:21:31):
And Brian, maybe one day I'll get to see you
in the baseball field.

Speaker 18 (02:21:35):
Take sure.

Speaker 16 (02:21:35):
God bless love you guys.

Speaker 6 (02:21:37):

Speaker 16 (02:21:37):
You're the best, buddy, You're the best, great heart to Sean,
take care of good.

Speaker 4 (02:21:40):
Bless those kind words.

Speaker 7 (02:21:44):
Yeah, man, I did so well on that that movie quiz,
you know that year that we we stopped doing it
because I graduated.

Speaker 5 (02:21:50):
For me, you've got a master's in it. Yeah, you
still haven't seen taken. So you're sure I'm getting a
doctorate in it. But I'll give you the masters all right,
that's all right m hm.

Speaker 7 (02:22:00):
A Big Twelve commissioner, Brett Yormark was asked about NCAA
expansion for the basketball tournament.

Speaker 4 (02:22:05):
Guess what he said.

Speaker 5 (02:22:07):
He probably wants twenty more teams. I'm in fake, he said. Quote,
I'm in favor of expansion to seventy six. I think
that's the right number. End quote.

Speaker 7 (02:22:15):
He says there's gonna be decisions in ninety days and
economics will be a factor. Oh you mean money Okay, cool,
So can't wait till we get the field of seventy six?

Speaker 5 (02:22:24):
Why as long as that I know why? But if
this helps do away with the playing games, you know
what I mean, the first four in games, those stupid
ass games they play on Tuesday and Wednesday. You win
your conference tournament, but yet you go go play to
be the twelve seed. You play another twelve seed to
be the twelve seed.

Speaker 7 (02:22:42):
So but he wants more team, he wants more teams
if it eliminates those dumb ass games, I'm in.

Speaker 5 (02:22:46):
Yeah, but here's the problem. How many do we need
before it's just watered down that's already there. Yeah, I
get excited. I know, we get I know that it's excited,
But we don't need sixty four plus? Oh what's sixty eight?

Speaker 6 (02:22:59):
Is that what it is?

Speaker 2 (02:23:00):
Is it?

Speaker 6 (02:23:00):
Six in?

Speaker 5 (02:23:01):
After the play in games? Yeah? Why why are we
Why do we want more teams so everybody gets a
trophy chance? It's they want these bigger conference. Then we
have like three different tournaments. If you didn't get in
that one go to the CBI, the third one n
I second in the CBI. So we want to make
sure everybody plays. Yeah, because we're in the third friggin grade.

(02:23:22):
I don't need any more teams. I don't need thirty
two teams in a football playoff. I don't need. I
don't these guys who keep pining for more, just frigging
stop it. Yeah, and it goes back to I if
sud broke, leave it alone, don't fix it. Oh, you
don't have to fix this, leave it alone.

Speaker 7 (02:23:41):
I just I really want those two the games that
are playing on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, which will
be this coming Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, because conference tournaments
will win selection Sunday.

Speaker 5 (02:27:40):
Good morning, Hey, good morning.

Speaker 18 (02:27:43):
I got a real simple question to ask you, guys.
It's real quick and simple. And I hang up and listen.
Who do you think will get a championship?

Speaker 12 (02:27:51):
First?

Speaker 18 (02:27:51):
Then you look Astros or the new look Texans and
I hang up and listen. Thank you very much.

Speaker 4 (02:27:56):
Hey, Joe, the Astros.

Speaker 5 (02:28:04):
I think the Astros are closer. It's too hard and
the quarterbacks right now at the top of the NFL
hard to get through. In the AFC, I would say
the Astros are still closer. That's just my opinion. But
I'll tell you what. It's not a big gap though.

Speaker 7 (02:28:17):
No, it's not that defense. Ryans has especially adding CJ.
Gardner Johnson to the mix, and.

Speaker 5 (02:28:23):
Let's let's not forget about the right mix in the offseason.
In this season, the Rockets ain't far behind. Dude. We've
got three teams that are pretty bunch together. I'm not
sure what I bet of the three right now.

Speaker 4 (02:28:33):
I would bet the UH University use that would.

Speaker 5 (02:28:36):
Be the first choice. If we're going there. That'd be
the first show. I told you that the other day.
If I had a million, I had to spend and
bet it right now, I would take the Cougars to
win the first one of the of the four those
three in the Houston Cougars men's basketball with Kelvin Sampson.
I'm not so sure. It's not gonna happen this year.
Let's pulling for it.

Speaker 4 (02:28:56):
Big twelve Tournament is underway.

Speaker 5 (02:28:59):
The Cougars play tomorrow. Yeah, game round one for them.
It's even though what they get do they get? Yeah,
they got to buy in the first because they're the
one seed. If they play, their t seed is a
TCU Colorado, one of those. Oh, we'll talk about it tomorrow.
I'm going home to watch some hoops, man, Yeah, to
watch some hoops.

Speaker 4 (02:29:16):
There's already a team that punched their ticket. I'm not mistaken.

Not a big deal.

Speaker 4 (02:29:29):

Speaker 5 (02:29:30):
That's good for them. Whoever it was. Yeah, marsh Mads baby,
