Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is The Matt Thomas Show with Ross one an
h Town. Good morning, and welcome to a Friday. In
this show, The Mat Thomas Show with Ross, there's his
sports talk seven. Oh, let's cust discuss, let's content, disguss

(00:27):
tex Us up, intive, mine cuts, practice squad, let's do it.
What happened? They cut some people? Okay, you're gonna have
to inform me. No, I'm good, Okay, boring af I
almost swore there. Why am I swearing? Relax? I just
want to cut discuss, That's all. I'll into that vacation.
I had a vacation last night.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Happy.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
What does that mean? Got the game last night?

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Proud?

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (00:53):
I really thought we were gonna start with something else. Seriously,
First of all, none of y'all showed up s FA.
There may have been two hundred people. I only I
think I saw maybe a one or two sevens, But
the rest of them were in the four to five category.
And your offense didn't score it one hundred. You can't
get to one hundred yards until offense to the fourth quarter.

(01:14):
There it is America's team dominated as I thought it
would last night. Twenty seventh, The nothing This update brought
to you by the joint Chiropracticallyfisher Chiropractor, University, Houston Athletics. Honestly, Jonathan,
it could have been fifty seven to nothings. They broke
SFA's back. Yeah, East Texas tough, my ass, sad. Look

(01:40):
they let you down, Jonathan. We knew what they were mediocre,
but that was upsurd. You didn't even watch the game.
I did. I turned it off at the third quarter
at thirty minutes. I remember the time just for you,
so me, how did you tell your girl we couldn't
watch a lifetime movie? And then we did to watch
the Cougar game instead, because I had to tell her
about all the beef that albums, like I been talking

(02:01):
the most of over the last couple month, Like I
can't just not let bost his game doesn't take me win, okay?
And then what happened and then you and then yeah,
the value and effort I'm sure value. Oh god, I
don't have a quarterback. I don't even know what the
guy was doing back then, man Vid like his name, yeah, yeah, yeah,

(02:22):
the backup quarterback for the longest past the day forty
yard completion the fourth quarter, and there was was there.
I saw there was a Cougar's running back that got hurt.
It was a Krugar running back that didn't even play.
That's to be gone for the season. Yeah, it wasn't
the starting like, it wasn't the starting running back. Well,
it was one of the guys that was few returning players.
Let me tell you, my let me tell you why

(02:43):
college football does suck in certain respects. So uh and look,
I don't look at the roster of University of Houston.
I just got so much other stuff going on. And frankly,
we have to we have to focus on things that
actually a lot of people care about it. As much
as I love the Cougars, it doesn't necessarily move the
needle for a lot of people. It is what it is.
But and this is probably gonna happen when you're watching

(03:05):
the Saturday game, when you're with your beloved Longhorns. Ninety
of the guys, I had never heard of the roster
fluctuation in all of college football. Whether it's one double A,
whether it's one A, whether it's Power five, whether it's
group of five, whether it's the team you care about
or the team you don't. You just don't recognize anybody.

(03:26):
There's no way we can attach names to our schools
because they're always moving around.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Uh yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
The transfer portal certainly makes it a lot more difficult.
It's harder to keep off on. I used to be
like when I was in school, I was all in
on recruiting, like on forums and checking out who this
guy was visiting and that guy was visiting and stuff
like that. But certainly gotten more out of touch with it.
I know, some of the big names and stuff like that,
but especially in these days with the transfer portal and

(03:56):
everybody coming from everywhere, you're like, oh, yeah, that guy
transfers from there. Oh yeah, that guy transfers from there,
And where's he from? I don't remember. It's confusing. I mean,
as a play by play guy, I would be confused
because now you're not talking just about weight or he's
from high school. You talked about where he played last Yeah, no,
you I think. Wasn't there a play by play guy
we interviewed or talked to, and he was like, I

(04:17):
have a rule. He only talks about the last school
they've been to, because some of them been to like
three or four. Right, He's like, he'd been to four schools.
We can't name them all. Brother, we gotta go, We
gotta move on. Like there's a kid that's a tight
end for the University of Houston named Tanner Cozial. He
had thirty nine see it, thirty nine year old? How may?
What did he finish with? Sixty three yards and seven catches?
I want you to see him, you will. He looks

(04:40):
like a pro player. Uh huh. He was at ball
State catching everything, okay, and I'm sure ball State treated
him well when like he wasn't getting the opportunity to
play there. He wanted the portal and got better. Now,
remember the portal can also be cruel in other direction
for you too. But it's just crazy that this is
a brand new cat who had barely been on campus.

(05:02):
I mean, I'm going to assume he's been in class
handful of day. It's been at twenty fall practices, and
now he's the leading target for oh, by the way,
for Texas and him quarterback. He loved the portal. Now, Matt,
now get kind of wegman. Well, I mean he was
good yesterday. I think there's a run to improve, but
I thought it was pretty good yesterday. He can run,
he can he can run. I'm just worried about, you know,

(05:25):
because he was so hurt so many times last year.
That is that the smart thing to do, you know,
to run as much as he did. But he's very,
very I'm not gonna put him in the same arch
Maining category interms of running, cause I think arch is
an elite runner. But these are guys that can move
a little bit. And if your offensive line is make
shift and trying to go through the development of whatnot

(05:46):
and trying to learn who you are and play with
each other against other teams. Yeah, have a nice scrimmage
last to have it. I mean, Jonathan, it was a scrimmage.
It was I've seen more competitive red white games that
I've seen what I saw last night. You know, I
can't even say nothing against it. Even gain a quarterback
was jogging, just tilling. They like he was just having
a fun practice. I don't think that jo sway at

(06:06):
the end of the day. I mean, Jonathan, I've never
seen a quarterback leave the game directly after the game
without taking a shower. And that's what Connor regmended. He's like,
I don't need to I don't need a shower, go
home and poor s a D line. They were doing
everything they could, just for them to do a little
mid post and first down and all the flags. Oh my,
it's very frustrated with wonder No. One of the guy

(06:28):
that called yesterday, uh said, I'm not going the game.
He's gonna go find some Rando high school game instead.
I prob I would have been more competitive. All right now,
Line two says Gill's calling from Houston, and it just
says complaint. He's a complain about the U of H game.
Oh he apparently he couldn't watch it. Oh well, let's

(06:49):
find out. I mean ESPN plus two. I was on ESPN,
ESPN two, SPN U. I was like, oh yeah, it's
on PETE and Plus. It was like the fifteenth most
important game last night. It's from the ESPN network. We'll talk.
Can we talk to Gil real quick?

Speaker 4 (07:06):

Speaker 1 (07:48):

and when there are so many games on a particular night,
some games get bumped over to ESPN plus plus is
and inn Boise State in Florida, South Florida, it was
a bigger game.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
We got a clip of that.

Speaker 7 (08:06):
They kept looking at what at that wrong day?

Speaker 1 (08:08):
We have to be on Nope, now you were on
the game was broadcast, it was on. I have some
I have some bad news for you, Gil, and Matt's
not going to say this, but I will. Houston is
not big time football. I'm sorry, sorry, I'm gonna say
it's big time. I'm gonna say it's big time. It's
not big time football. So I mean literally, Boise State,
South Florida. I mean yeah in nineteen eighty nine.

Speaker 6 (08:30):
Yeah, whatever, I'm old, so I remember those good old days.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Yeah, I know when when they're breaking in Cuba rules
and getting infractions and yeah, if I Simon gem in
nineteen eighty three, those are good times.

Don't enough fun?

Speaker 7 (08:47):
Hoston residents watched the dog one games.

Speaker 1 (08:50):

do with that? You can't. He can't call the TV
nevers and demand.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
East Carolina in c State was a bigger game. Rutgers,
Ohio a bigger game. I just this is ESPN saying this,
not me. I'm sorry, No, Killy Gil, Here's the reality.
Were we were playing at community college. I mean, come on, oh,
I mean seriously.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
We still want to win?

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Well yeah, then you know what go get you? You

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Were there pulls at this attabishment? Establishment was? It was
destiny on the stage? Your what come on?

Speaker 10 (09:31):
Now?

Speaker 6 (09:32):
I wouldn't be calling you Mercedes on stage?

Speaker 1 (09:34):
No, okay, I wouldn't. That feels fair? Thank you, very
kil thank you for a different show. No, I mean,
the reality is if you are I can't believe my
favorite team is not on over the air television. You
better get used to it, because there's more and more.
You better learn how to get a game on Peacock.

(09:54):
You better learn how to get a game on Paramount Plus.
And I'm not talking just about college football. I'm talking
about the NBA, Major League Baseball. Hell, the Astro has
been on Apple more times than I can't Ted Lasto,
there you go. I'm here to help. Thank you'd like
Ted Lasso film me. I'm a little A little hesitance

(10:15):
is going to be good because it took so long
to figure out the come back. Yeah, they're no a
wallet with them. They said they weren't going to do it,
and now they're in Kansas City this year. They're they're
done playing in England. They're playing in Kansas City. A
Sporting casey or something or whatever. The MLS team. I
don't who knows, I'm not. I'm not overly enthusiastic about this.
I'd like Ted Lasso. Actually, all right, Uh, it isn't

(10:37):
as you just heard. Anything goes Friday here on the show. Look,
many of you took today off because it normally takes
me two and a half hours to drive here, and
a guy here in about forty eight minutes. I was
pretty happy about that. It's a four day week and
for many but we're working. Yes, So if you're at
home just chilling, relaxing, call the show. It's anything goes Friday,
we give you the longest lead in the business. Typically

(11:00):
Monday through Thursday. That leash is even longer today.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
M hmm.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Even poor Gil who went to a bar last night.
Now Big City Wings had the game on.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Oh that's good.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yes, I mean it's it's not hard for these bars,
but plus games on, it's just not I think normally
the streaming start like when you have a business account,
it shows up on like uh marric MeV. It's like
an extra channel, but you have to have like a
business O. Nice. Okay, well then yeah, so you know
what remost few do. BISZ could have been there to
help you out. Yeah, well help the security company. Not

(11:29):
an important game, I get it. I mean we basically
played a sophomore team. I mean I don't I mean,
I don't know what else to tell you. I mean
it could have been it could have been fifty seven
to nothing. We could we could have made it worse.
I don't think so. You don't know. I had it on. Okay,
I didn't watch it, but I had it on. It's
on TV two. It was on TV one, Nebraska and Cincinnati.

(11:52):
That was a good game. Yeah. By the way, Taylor
Swift showing up at the game, I mean there was
was Taylor Swift showing up in Nebraska since any game
in your ringo Borg it was not. But it was
supposed to be a quote unquote neutral site. It was Nebraska.
Nebraska is like three hours from Kansas City. Are you
kidding me? Yeah, it's supposed to be neutral siting. It
was basically sounded like a Nebraska home game. Yeah, that's

(12:14):
trying to be a pretty good game. I'll listen to
the way home. So all right, and it goes Friday,
which will include I'm sorry he's at eleven thirty today.
People gotta apologize for things. Lord knows, Ross you probably
did some things in the road this week. You gotta apologize.
Let me think uh and dark as them and ESPN
o's Lee corson apology saw your tweet. I'll tell you
about how we cut back ten sixty on Sports Talk

(12:36):
seven ninety. All right, and it goes Friday. Here on
the show, we've got Astro's victory to talk about. I
think we have to stop slandering someone that has been
slandered a lot by the Astro fan base this year.
I'll tease that for the next segment, we have to
stop slandering somebody who's been slandered a lot, Alex Centron.

(13:00):
People don't even know who Alex Cindron is to stop, Yes,
theick do. No, they just call him the batting coach
stros Twitter.

Speaker 10 (13:07):
They do.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
That's true and funny. I don't know why he gets
more hate than Troy Snicker because they don't know. I
just feel like, no, I don't know. It's weird. It
doesn't mean it's their equal opportunity offenders. Apparently my computer's
not working. Matt's having technical difficulties. Okay, so this morning

(13:28):
I perused the worldwide social media platform on as X
in Front Office Sports, which is a pretty good fall. Actually,
they do a variety of different things, but they do
off They're not giving you x's and o's, they're giving
you off the beaten path kind of stuff. Yes, there
is a video that says, look at how cute. This
is Lee Corso is at Orlando Airport and he's getting

(13:48):
a special introduction by the goodnatude Fox Walk can be bored,
Dark Breast their lives Fly fifteen to seventy five. Don
stops jet service to Columbus. Those of you Niles in
the boarding group A one through thirty, you can go
through the far left lane thirty one through sixty. After
that then we'll go on to B one through thirty.
And of course, if you're a military, we want to

(14:08):
invite you to welcome you aboard anytime. I know that
that man you are, you were the biggest airplane and
airport expert. That was a perfect spiel. Yeah, thank you.
And I'm a travel hole. That's a useless skill. But
it's I mean, I mean, thinking about the two things
I know most about are game shows and airports.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
That's great.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
So I'm thinking, Okay, this is cool. That Corso and
he's got somebody with him. I don't know, maybe it's
the sun, maybe it's a relative, maybe it's somebody that
travel caretaker whatever. I mean, he's nine years old, he's
not traveling by himself. I would take that get lost.
And he's going on this big spiel And I'm thinking,
why is Lee Corso flying Dark Breast Airlines? Oh they

(14:56):
have a sign seating now they can get in the
extra room, extra leg room. Hey, he doesn't know where
he is anyways, you might as well sit my Dark
Breass aeroids. That's horrific of you to say that. It's
very much true, but it doesn't mean I want you
to say it publicly. It's like taking your kids to
Disney World when they're three. They're not gonna remember it.
What's the point? And so the travelhar that I am.

(15:19):
I thought to myself, well, all right, why would is
someone fly Dark Breast to Columbus? And I figured, okay,
maybe it's because there's a NonStop flight between Orlando and Columbus.
Most times, if you want to fly between Orlando and Columbus,
you gotta change planes somewhere, whether it's Chicago, Atlanta. You
don't need him changing planes. You want it to be
as quick as possible. And I don't know, maybe maybe

(15:41):
maybe Lee loves Dark Breast because of the great flick
and flyer service. I don't know if he's necessarily worried
about his points. Yeah, maybe he's getting his points and
expensing it. Well, I mean, I'm sure that you, even
if the company pays for you're stick at the point. YEA,
That's what I'm saying. So, I, uh, there were two
options on NonStop flights. You look this up. Duh, you're

(16:01):
I mean, I don't mean this in me in a
mean way at all. You please say it. This is incredible. Yeah,
this is this is a very interesting behavior. Right, So
he had so he had two options dark breast okay
or mirriant Ooh, we don't need Lee Corso getting in
beefs on Mirrred Airlines, which the and I went to

(16:25):
look at the comments because I wanted to see if
the comments were matching what I was thinking, and eighty
percent of them are one, damn, fly the guy on
a private plane?

Speaker 2 (16:33):
What do you do?

Speaker 1 (16:34):
This is his last ever broadcast on ESPN and you
can't fly him. You know, they fly herb Street and
his dog, or on the private plane. His dog's in
the co captain's chair. I mean, the dog gets better
treatment than Lee Corso does.

Speaker 7 (16:55):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
It's terrible. Disney's annual revenue last year ninety one point
thirty six billion dollars. Get him a private place it's
his not again. If you don't, if you don't do
it every week, I understand that, but I'm guessing it's
his last one. For the love of God, esp and
Disney fly you aren't in Orlando. You're telling me that

(17:17):
Orlando Walt Disney executives don't have a hangar at Orlando Airport.
Absolutely they do. I was like, are you Lee freaking
Corso is flying dark breast to Columbus and he has
to find his own seat. I mean, give me a break.
He's in like twenty three c. That's funny. And now

(17:40):
do you think because of this backlast you'll be on
a private plane on the way home? No question, I say, yes, right,
good feeling. I mean, my computer's not working. I'm trying
to get to work though, that's fine. My point is,
can you go read the comments? Go look at for
its front office, Sports look at your well you tweeted it. Okay, yeah,
yeahh so look at that and tell me I'm right.
I'm not wrong at Sports MT thank you? Oh seven,

(18:07):
join us. Okay, so read some of the comments. Let's see.
Shout out to ESPN for having ninety year old Lee
Corso waiting to board a Southwest flight with the rest
of the poors, like he isn't a piece of their huge,
of their trillion dollar history. Crazy they make him fly Southwest.
They aren't flying in private. I knew ESPN was cheap,
but damn Kirk sharbs Ret flies over the place with

(18:29):
his dogs and he couldn't pick Lee up for his
last game? Does Steven A. Smith fly Dark Breast? Oh
hell no he doesn't. Uh, ESPN, wtf are you doing?

Speaker 3 (18:39):
This?

Speaker 1 (18:39):
Legend deserves a G six to Columbus. Yeah, they do
the wheel you know that wheels up as a company
that does private planes. They bring in the celebrity pickers
on the private plane. You can't send Lee Corso on
a private plane for his last ever broadcast. Uh bit,
It's terrible. This is elder abuse.

Speaker 4 (19:01):
You.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
We're gonna I'm gonna tweet at Kirk Curve Street. Okay
you should. Well you know who's buds with him? Who?
Sean Salisbury? Sean's with Kirker, with Lee with Kirk? Okay?
I just so again. My my recount on this was
he had got three choices. Well he got he can
go change of planes and fly first class. Mm hmm.

(19:25):
On schmided or I mean on yeah schmiden or first
class American who does merit merrit? I think does have
first class for real? Yeah, I mean I think the
seat does actually recline one inch and you and apparently
if flat tenant will not hit you across the face.
It comes with a two piece and a biscuit. And
I'm not talking about chicken first class. I'm married.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
Is this why?

Speaker 1 (19:48):
I think it's a set in your lap and you
can do what you want. Lee course is a blasting
Bennie Goodman on a speaker. He did fights on Spirit airlines.
All right, I'm sorry, I'm done.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
I'm done.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
No, I'm tweeting at Kirkurbs. I've never tweeted a kirk
Curb shit in my life. I think it's fantastic. Okay,
you won the great broadcasters of the last thirty Yeah.
The recent face lift he has looks good. He does
look young for his age. Yeah, he's got a good surgeon.
It's happening. All right, let's go to the phones. Uh,
Steven in the Heights says, how terrible?

Speaker 2 (20:22):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Is I like this one?

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:25):
What was what was the old attendants last night? By
the way, forty thousand. I saw a kickoff picture. Look
like there must have been a big traffic dram jam
on Scott Street. There was an overflow crowd of forty
thousand there at least, oh, at least I can go
to the Big twelve. Tab that's cool. We gotta we
gotta fill the place up for Colorado. Maybe, I mean

(20:48):
it's Colorado's gonna travel for a Friday night game. I
won if Colorado fans even traveled. Du they twenty eight? No, no, no,
that was only in the first quarter. I got to
forty nine by the end of the game. Big time,
as I said, folks, not big time football. I'm sorry,
I mean, I hate to be the bear of bad news,
but well, we're gonna win the Big twelve this year.
It'd be big time football. That would be huge, Winning

(21:08):
cures everything. That's how you fill up the stadium. Yeah,
and we haven't had winning football in quite some time. Frankly,
I mean, honestly, since Tom Herman was there serving up
burnt hot dogs. By the way, Harney Gardner's leaving SNL
for eight years. Kind of sad about the heiny Garner.
She I got a little thing for her. You do
he's cute and funny, SNL making more cash change. What's

(21:29):
up with that? I don't know?

Speaker 2 (21:31):
All right?

Speaker 1 (21:31):
And Keenan Thompson is still there, God he is. He's
been there since season one. He was there with Blushi
and with a Akbert and Chevy Chase and Guilder. Right, really, yeah,
I didn't know that that long seven one three two
one two five seven ninty seven one three two one
two five. I'm going to tweet at Kirk Kerkshew, will
he get Lee a flight? A charter flight back home?

(21:54):
Seven one three two two five seven niney and then
goes Friday continues, We've got the astros to discuss.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
We have the.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
Super big college football game tomorrow Texas Ohio State. Man
with I don't have a dog in a fight, but
I cannot wait to be in front of my television.
WHOA you excited? I actually want Texas to win?

Speaker 2 (22:16):
I'm what?

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Because I don't. I think. I think Ohio State's even
more arrogant than you guys are. Really Oh yeah, wow,
that's saying something in the in the arrogant power rankings,
it's gotta be Ohio State won Texas two. In Syracuse three.
I see you taking shots. Tell me I'm wrong, You're wrong, Okay,

(22:37):
Texas very humble, no chance, no chance of that whatsoever.
I'm just hoping for a for a good game. There
you go. I'm glad you had that. No, I'm hoping
that Texas wins, of course. But I'm honestly, when when
a bunch of public money always goes out of Texas,
I swear, what do you want private money going on
to Texas?

Speaker 4 (22:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (22:56):
I would rather just sharp for me on Texas. Absolutely,
But there was a big bet made on Texas, and
the line is shrunk to now one and a half
most places. Some places, the Longhorns are favored. I think
it was a circa. They're favored by one, yeah, two
point shift off a five hundred and fifty thousand dollars bet.
That's what I love about Circa is they'll take anybody's
bet just about they're they're known as as the people

(23:18):
that will take big bets that other other books aren't
willing to do. I want to know what Derek Stevens
likes to take risks.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
I'm not familiar who that is. But that's a different
issue for a different time, all right, so uh, just
put that in perspective. Somebody is walking in this country,
and I'm sure there are thousands of people that can
do this that said, I'm going to go to Rouca
and I'm going to spend five hundred and fifty thousand
dollars on a single bet, yes five to win five hundred.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
Whew.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
I mean that's is that Americana right there?

Speaker 10 (23:55):
Or is that?

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Hey man, you gotta your money be better spend elsewhere.
It probably better spend elsewhere, But I mean it is
what it is. It's fun. You win the lottery or
you win all that kind of money and you can
do whatever you want. Well, my guess is that all
the casinos can take those deals because there's so much
money can be spent on this first week into college football,
and maybe on that game in particular that I mean,

(24:17):
it's gonna hurt Merka, but it's not gonna kill them.
Oh yeah, they're not gonna close their doors. No, all right?
Seven one three two one two five seven. And I
still owe you a player that maybe we need to
back off on when it comes to our criticism. Ooh,
and I've got a few numbers that might just back
that up. Look, at you said the numbers guy. Let's

(24:38):
talk to uh steven in the heights. Our time is
ten thirty eight. It is anything goes Friday at seven
one three two one two five seven on Stephen, good morning, Hey, Hey.

Speaker 7 (24:49):
Matt, hey Ross.

Speaker 11 (24:50):
I gotta say U of A should have won by
way more.

Speaker 12 (24:53):
Yes, they're not gonna win the Big twelve, the third
and fourth the third rate program. SSA is the fourth
rate program. Arizona State is gonna win the whole thing.
Sam Levitt is gonna.

Speaker 8 (25:05):
Be top five for Heisman.

Speaker 10 (25:08):
And we got cheated out of the National Championship game.

Speaker 12 (25:11):
Last year because we lost Texas, because the Reps cheated us.

Speaker 6 (25:15):
We should have beaten them and.

Speaker 12 (25:17):
Been in the semis and then advanced to the finals
and won it all. We would have been national champions
of Age has the not it's gonna be a journalism
program as.

Speaker 13 (25:27):

scatted mooie. You ain't got a scatter chance to win
the Big twelve. Okay, that's number one.

Speaker 6 (25:40):
Jordan Tyson, Jordan Tyson number two.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
There is There isn't an easier school to get in
the country to get into than Arizona State. And you
know that for a fact. And you know I'm not
lying here.

Speaker 12 (25:51):
Okay, But Ash Chancellor Johnson the new you know you
saw his Twitter.

Speaker 13 (25:56):
He's working with the Big twelve now in number number three,
in number three, your school have fourteen thousand people at
the game when they play the Cougars coming up in
a few weeks.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Your school doesn't care. You think my school doesn't care
about my football program. Nobody cares about Arizona State.

Speaker 6 (26:12):
We sold out our first game in the season, did y'all?

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (26:16):
We did?

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Yes, No, completely sold out twenty eight thousand. Your squad's
gonna do it normally Arizona State does go seven and
five and some go to some West Coast bowl game
and nobody cares about we went to the blouse last year.

Speaker 5 (26:30):

Uh?

Speaker 1 (26:31):
On the cusp?

Speaker 5 (26:34):
On the cusp?

Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yeah, on the cusp of making a bowl game national
champions at all? All right, Yeah, you know what, devil,
Let me tell you some Sun Devil fan. I know
who this guy is on Twitter with this too. Okay.
First of all, seriously, every one of my kids was
gonna was gonna get a We're gonna get a full
ride Arizona State. And my kids didn't even take the SAT.

(26:55):
They're like, just come, we don't care. We hating on
the Kronkite school a journalism. It is actual, are very nice.
I love I love Arizona State. First of all, the
once around what's the once around, Matt, when you walk
around the campus once around? Dry Bys? Is this true?

(27:17):
What I just looked up the acceptance rate. Tell the
audience it's absolutely true. Ninety point two percent. Yeah. I
would put Arizona State's academic shall we say, a reputation
on the alongs and lines of I don't know, Tyler
Junior College. Wow. I mean I would think Western Kentucky

(27:41):
and SFA would be harder to get into than Arizona State. Wow.
Ninety point two percent. They're like, yeah, come on, we
don't care. Crazy good for them. It seems like a
nice school.

Speaker 5 (27:54):
It is.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
It's a big champion's had.

Speaker 2 (27:56):
It's great.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
It's got a boatload of students, by the way, and
they are I'm sure James Harden enjoyed the campus. Put
this way, they have the anti when s FA when
it comes to girls, ouch, I mean there are some
Thoroughbreds in Tempe. I'm just gonna say, I've got nothing
to say, never been yep. As a matter of fact,

(28:18):
I'm going to the Arizona State game. Oh you are.
I'm gonna go on the road, on the road. Yeah,
why doing the show. I'll be on the broadcast team
that game. So, oh you will? Yeah, you're doing the game. No,
I'm gonna do the pregame show and a spot. I'll
do stats and spots for our school. But where I'm
leaving the day of the game, a flying there and
flying them with the team in the way back. So
he's great quick overnight or two phoenix or not overnight,

(28:38):
over day or a day trip. Wait, you don't. You
don't even spend a night there. Oh that's well, I'm
sure you'll enjoy it for a few hours. I will
definitely enjoy it for a few hours, especially after the
Cougars stay times gona have to l wu and the
ribs you're spotting with binoculars in the stands rather than
on the field. I'll be scattered booting the crowd. That's
what I'll be doing. Oh boy, let's go to Steve

(29:01):
at ten forty three on seven on a Hello, Steve, Hey.

Speaker 9 (29:05):
Good morning.

Speaker 6 (29:06):
You guys were talking about sports betting the Texas Ohio
State game, and so the line was with a point
and a half, is that right?

Speaker 1 (29:17):
It was three, and then it moved to it depending
on the book, it was one and a half some places,
and then at circa it's up to because of a
big bet, Texas favored by one by one. Okay.

Speaker 6 (29:29):
Now the big bet was, so if I'm the guy
who puts up a half million dollars and I'm gonna
say okay and Texas wins, what do.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
I get back five hundred thousand?

Speaker 7 (29:40):
Understand?

Speaker 1 (29:40):
Well, you get it all back. So you bet five
hundred and fifty thousand and you win, you get your money,
You get your bet back plus five hundred thousand. If
it's a minus one ten bet, which I'm guessing it was,
other it makes sense that he would bet five to
fifty to win five hundred.

Speaker 6 (29:54):
Okay, so I'm almost doubling my money. Oh right, all right,
so that would be gosh.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
You you went all you need is the long horns
to win and you get half a million bucks.

Speaker 6 (30:09):
That well, all you need is then just to win, well,
you need them to win by two right or yeah, no.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
No, the I believe he since he moved the line.
He probably got in with the Texas long Horns as
an underdog.

Speaker 6 (30:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
It depends on where you get the bet in, whether
you're getting a point or going up a point. Yeah,
it's not like horse betting where the line's moving. You
have to be at whatever the line is. It's whatever
you get in at the time. That's what your bet is.

Speaker 6 (30:33):
Okay, all right? Yeah, and one more, but one more
uh betting question or actually it's gambling And I'll be
the hang up and listen guy because I can't offer
any uh commentary. But Matt, when you go to Lake
Charles and the you were so angry at the woman with.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
The blue hair. Yes, it was actually more a purple. No,
it was brown, and it was a very obvious wig.

Speaker 14 (30:59):
He was.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
She's a sweet old here's an old hag. Hold on
a stroke. Oh my god.

Speaker 6 (31:05):
But here's what so, so, here's what I don't what
I'm not understanding. I'll be again hang up and listen.
Sure you're depending upon other people on in the table
to play the hand correctly or you lose money?

Speaker 3 (31:22):
Is that it?

Speaker 1 (31:23):
No, you can still play the hand correctly and still lose. Yeah,
it doesn't actually mathematically, Matt, it does not affect you
wins or loses. Somebody else can play wrong. You play
against the dealer. Everybody else plays against the dealer. Now
what it does though, is there's one uh well one
set of decks that they are dealing from. So it
affects the order of the cards. So if if I

(31:46):
should stay pat and I take a ten and Matt
needed a ten, I took his ten, you're just playing,
You're playing the odds about how the cards are distributed,
and so uh you know, again, the game of blackjack
is either to get to twenty one or have the
dealer bust, or you have a higher hand than the dealer.
You got one of three options to play the game.

(32:07):
It depends on how the hand plays out as how
you play the hand. So when uh, the dealer has
a what they call a bus card, and I don't
mean to get all elementary and your blackjack here, but
thank you for calling. And that's anything goes farding because yes,
people do ask about what'll talk blackjack for four hours?

Speaker 15 (32:20):
Matter?

Speaker 1 (32:20):
You know, let's go. There are typical bus cards two
through six, meaning no matter what the dealer has in
the hide card, the card in the hole. He's got
a hit again because the dealer has to hit until
the dealer gets to seventeen. So the dealer has a
four and then underneath he's got a ten. It's fourteen.
The odds are that maybe there's a significant chance of

(32:42):
that dealer busting with the next card coming up being
an eight to nine or a ten. So it's right
that you'd rather have the dealer bust and you win,
and win on a hand of a thirteen as compared
to you trying to get closer to twenty one and
you busting because you had the hand of fourteen or
fifteen that gives you a chance of busting. And again
I'm getting all compl in here, but the point being
is there's just a follow there's a set of rules.

(33:03):
You're trying to play the odds as best as you can,
and that dumb hag did not do. So she lost
her bet. I lost my bet because the card you
would have won you, I would have won on the
car that she that she took, and we all lost.
So again I want her to have a stroke and
not be able to speak. My god. The restaurant always
forgets when it helps him, which is rare.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
I said, it's just as.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
Likely to help as her Mathematically, I don't believe that.
And then Karma, I think blackjack. Karma says, try Google
dot com, Try kissmask dot com, Try try you know
what the hell you're talking about with probabilities dot net.
That's that's I'll accept that. She's like, oh, I'm sorry,

(33:49):
mat she was very sweet. Listenernie, I'm gonna take your
false teeth and throw them down there. It was Brenda whatever.
I'm just kidding. I don't know what it was, bitch.
Ten forty, ten forty eight. It's a bad Tamas show
with Ross seven one three two one two five seven ninety.
I'm not bitter though, seven one three two one two

(34:11):
five seven nine zero. Where Ross is going to tell
you about how you can take your information on the
college in pro football and make some good money. Yeah,
I'll do that in a minute, back in a minute,
ten forty eight on seven ninety ten fifty three on
the Matt Thomas Show, Ross and Anything goes Friday. All right.
So Christian Walker's last three seasons in Arizona. His OPS

(34:37):
was eight oh four eight thirty and eight oh three,
pretty good, really really really good while playing gold glove
first base. Each of those seasons home run numbers thirty six,
thirty three, and twenty six, so declining every year. He
hit two yesterday that helped the Astros beat the hated
and I mean despised Colorado Rockies. Yes, it's got twenty one. Now,

(35:04):
he's got a month left to go, so he's behind
l Tuove, who's got the team lead at twenty two. Right, yeah,
uh twenty one. His ops has gone up significantly higher
in the last forty five days, and it was certainly
for the first four months. I'm gonna say that solid.
I'm gonna say that word that when the dust settles. Now,
obviously he's got to continue his upward track here. Yeah,

(35:26):
he won't be what he was last year, but we're
gonna be probably closer to what we thought he should
have been to begin with, as compared to, Oh my god,
all this guy does is slug. He's heating up at
the right time, and he was freshly shaven and hit
two home runs, so I think he was looking to
change something up and it worked. Speaking of freshly.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
Shaved, five in the last week fellas.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
Why are you so loud? Why are you yelling at us?
You usually yell us only here? Thank you, Johnathan, It's okay,
it's Jonathan. Your levels are you went to say what
we expect?

Speaker 6 (35:56):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (35:56):
My god, Guard Guard, Hey, Goardy? How are you?

Speaker 16 (36:02):
I'm I'm excited, man, I'm going to the Astros game tonight,
ready to see him get a win tonight with Christian
Javier and start getting ready for the postseason.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
We got postseason, Christian Walker here going.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
See I told you, did you hear what I just
said that maybe the numbers are gonna be pretty, are
gonna be a lot closer to what we thought he
was going to be as compared to everybody wanting to
release him after the first two weeks calling him basically
Christian Walker or Bray you I mean that fell a
little person?

Speaker 2 (36:26):
All right, Well, y'all do remember two years ago?

Speaker 16 (36:29):
Remember a bra you Actually he started hitting a little
bit in the playoffs as bad as Jose Brew was, Yes,
he had some hits, and so if Christian Walker can
give you that look, we'll forget about all the two
thirty batting season throughout the regular season. If he hits,
you know, gets heats up in September. In October, we'll
forget all that.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
Last sixty games, he's hitting two sixty three ops of
seven ninety nine twelve home runs. That's like, for the
last sixty games, he's been what you thought you were getting. Yeah,
that is for sure. Hey, I got a question for
you football, because you're our SEC insider. Well really it's
more Cole Thompson, but we're at you instead. Auburn Baylor.
What's your guy tell you about that matchup coming up here?

Speaker 16 (37:10):
Oh, I've been asked about that game all week. I
put it at fifty to fifty. I mean I didn't
go either way. I talked to our big twelve guy
earlier this week. He thinks Baylor is gonna win big.
I talked to a couple of Auburn guys. They think
Auburn wins by three touchdowns. So it's it's literally game
where anything can happen. I'll tell you this, Auburn has
more talent. I mean they went and got that Cam

(37:31):
Coleman was a stut freshman for them last year. I
think he's gonna be end up being one of the
best wide receivers when it's all said and done. They
on and got Eric Singleton, the best wide receiver in
the ACC last year from from Georgia Tech.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
They got weapons everywhere.

Speaker 16 (37:46):
They get Jackson Arnold, who was a five star recruit
at Oklahoma underachieved last year, but now he's got an
offensive friendly coach in Hugh Freeze. Like I just to me,
I look on paper and go Auburn is the better team.
But you got to go out there and prove it tonight.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
I mean, look, I know that the dedicated high school
football fan hates the fact there's college football on Friday,
but this is I mean, you got Auburn Colorado. About Auburn,
Baylor and Georgia Tech Colorado. I mean that's the way
to sit down and enjoy a nice Friday nightto college football,
especially opening week. Number one and go ahead.

Speaker 16 (38:23):
I was just gonna say one thing to also watch
for tonight. If Auburn is running the football, when Baylor
brings in some rotating defensive lineman, watch for number ninety
three one DK.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Kalou ge d come on in the house. Well and
he can be there, right, he's got it. Probably we
should call him. Okay, well, can we amim on the
air and night what's the rule about him? I don't know.
Ask him. Ask our programmer, Cordy, what do you think?

Speaker 2 (38:52):
Can we call it? Can we call him?

Speaker 6 (38:53):
Or no.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
Question?

Speaker 1 (38:56):
Okay? All right, So again, Astros, this weekend we got
college football. Who do you like in Texas? Ohio State?

Speaker 2 (39:04):
Gosh?

Speaker 16 (39:05):
I've gone back and forth all week. I've said Texas.
I think Texas s It's when everybody and their brothers
all over Texas.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
Yeah, makes the one to bet high exactly. Doesn't make
me feel great After watching the u H game last night,
we had ten win team this year? Yes or no?

Speaker 16 (39:24):
I thought Connor Wegman did some nice things there. That
offensive line has got to They got to make some
adjustments to get right. But defense looked pretty good. I
get it's SFA, but that's a six win team. That's
what you're going bowling?

Speaker 1 (39:36):
Oh baby, we're going bowling Sports RV. You can go
with us where to mobile? Maybe go to Alabama to
the Alma Bowl. We'll get done in the Rossville Rial

I don't wonder. Jonathan One said, I'll rather be home
with you giving your girl of a little foot massage.
I get it. And she wants them for too long? Really,

(40:22):
how long does she want? How long does they have
a massage with her? It's like it's like like a

use any sort of lotion or nothing, or apple butter
or anything like that. Apple butter. I ain't thinking about
apple butter, Cocoa butter, cocoa butter and apple, but you
know almond butter? Uh a little what is that? What's
the stuff that you put on when you burn yourself?
Al la vera? You have little elvera on there at

(41:07):
very moisty. I wonder, Yeah, what are you doing, Matt?
You got ALIBERI this week? Doing you clip the toenails too?
God forbid. Now you're a better man of me if
you do that.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
Man, I do not.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
All right, I'm over this, all right. We mentioned Christy
Walker this weekend Friday, it's Slavery Day listening. It could
be about fifteen it could be fifteen thousand. If you
are listening, I would appreciate you following me at sports
RV on Instagram. I'm trying to put more content up there.
I just recently posted my review of Interstellar Barbecue in Austin, Texas,
and I looked at it and I'm like, oh my god,

(41:41):
there's another great brisket there. It sounds fantastic. It was
great brisket. Actually, I had one negative note about the brisket.
You can find it on my Instagram at sports RV. Yeah,
I work with a brisket snob.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
But this is what it is.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
I mean, I'm fine with it. I've been to five
of the top ten Texas top fifty joints. Now I
got to mark off the rest of the list. I
got four years. What's the furthest from here. I think
Evie Mays is in like, uh, it's like near Lubbock
or something like that. Well, you go all the way
there for that. It's in Wolforth. Where's Wolforth, Texas? I

(42:18):
don't know if I will. Then you're really not?

Speaker 2 (42:20):
Do not?

Speaker 1 (42:21):
You not the barbecue sabbot you think you are? I
didn't say. I never claimed myself to be a You
just dropped the I just went to five of the
top ten bars. Yes, that's a fact. Who is eight
hours away? Yeah, it's outside of Lubbock.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
So you can go.

Speaker 1 (42:34):
How about you've h placed Texas Tech sometime? Okay, and
we'll go there the night before my treat. Okay, that's
now I'm going. Now, I don't have to wait in line,
do I. I'll wait in line for you. That'd be good.
You know what, I actually had a I meant to
bring this up on the show. I'm glad you said this.
It triggered my memory. So in these places you get
into line early. For example, I got into the line
at Interstellar Barbecue at ten o'clock and I was probably

(42:56):
about tenth in line. That's not bad. And I was
probably eating about eleven fifteen eleven twenty. But anyways, one
person in front of us, I was tenth in line,
but all their buddies showed up and I was fourteenth
in line, chatt and cut. They were holding a spot.
So what's the etiquette there if you have is there
a limit? Because I get it if your friends can't

(43:19):
make it on time and you want to hold a
spot in line and they want to come join you, well,
it's also like, hey, if we put in the time
and we've been in there, we've been waiting because some
places you go to, like Franklin Barbecue, there are people
in line at like six in the morning. Well, well,
well to be fair about this, and we're going back
to sports, so people are here for the for the
show on sports. We went to mooth you, me and Connor. Yes,

(43:41):
and you were there first, Yes, and we in me
and Ronna or Rovin who used to work with us here.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
Both y'all were late, well re late, and we jumped
into your spot exactly. I'm not saying it's wrong, That's
what I'm saying. I'm saying, what's the etiquette?

Speaker 3 (43:53):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (43:53):
Limit? Five?

Speaker 6 (43:55):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (43:57):
You could some people could say lemon zero? Yeah, the
problem is if you're getting there and I gotta go
fifty spots behind you, we're not getting the same time
and nobody wants to have dinner at the different times.
Or also, I could just order for you, so it
doesn't really cost any if you just text me. What
if you guys didn't show up by the time I
was in line, I would have ordered whatever you wanted,
So it really doesn't cost you time.

Speaker 2 (44:18):
That's right?

Speaker 1 (44:18):
Okay? So uh yeah, I would say we got to
be very careful with the limit five no limit, four
drop two wife and one kid. Somebody pulled up with
four people right in front of us. So did you snicker?

Speaker 3 (44:32):
No?

Speaker 1 (44:33):
I was like, should I be mad? Or is this fine?

Speaker 3 (44:35):
You?

Speaker 1 (44:35):
You just scrunched your nose is what you did? Okay,
that's fine? All right? It is eleven eight here on
Sports Talk seven ninety Madden Ross with you on Anything
Goes Friday. Astros have a series with the Halos beginning tonight,
must win series, I think at this point the other
all must win. Okay, good? Yeah, Now would you like
to go in three out of four? Absolutely? You know
it's funny because it was it col I think it

(44:57):
was with us on or No, it was U Tuesday.
They asked me to predict the ten game homestand and
I originally said seven and three, and then I'm like, well,
you know, we're not. The Astros aren't playing seven hundred ball.
They're not. So I put six and four.

Speaker 7 (45:12):
Uh huh.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
And they're two and one so far, so they're I'm
pacing that way for six and four. I don't want
to go six and four. Mariners have the Guardians, but
they did play. They did play while the Mariners were offs.
The Astros of a two game lead in the division.
Cleveland and Seattle played tonight in Cleveland. Astros are home
for the Angels, and the Astros have the home field
advantage clearly, and they have the lesser of the two opponents.

(45:34):
This it should be a weekend. Will they play this way? Rossie?
I think will be. Will we be disappointed if they
don't have a bigger than two game lead by the
time we get back here on Tuesday, I will say
slightly disappointed, Yes, yeah, And if it's less than two,
we're going to be. We're gonna do it. So it's
Javier Arraghetti and Hunter Brown. Oh, you gotta win two
out of three and then maybe Lance mccallars on Monday,

(45:57):
maybe maybe, or he's in the weekend, we'll tell you.
And the more that I thought about this, well, that
was a soft pedal right by Joe, basically saying, well,
we're gonna put you in the bullpen, but we might
need you on Monday. I think they know they have
to be delicate. They do absolutely. I think he's a

(46:23):
sensitive Sally too strong of a term, thoughtful Terresa, he
can be sensitive. I mean, it is just what it is.
By the way, strength schedule, strength remaining Seattle twenty fifth,
Astros eighteenth. You know why because you've been loaded up
on the Rockies and the Angels. Yes, so after this
weekend it's gonna be even worse. Well, the next road

(46:45):
trip is Texas, who are still hanging around. Yes, uh,
then they go to Toronto, Atlanta and then Toronto or
vice versa. On that, I'd have to go look at it.
I think it's Texas, Toronto and Atlanta and some order
on that. But that's not that's something easy.

Speaker 14 (47:00):
Now.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
Atlanta sucks. By the way, Kyle Schwarber for home runs yesterday,
pretty good, twenty first Ever, that's that second second time
this year yes, because Nick Kurtz did it against the Astros,
right Who Nick Kurtz, Nick Kurtz, Nick Kurtz. Yeah, that's
what I said. Okay, I just want to make sure
because I just think it's important to say it slowly.

(47:22):
Oh okay, Yeah, home for New York, then at Texas,
at Toronto, at Atlanta nine game roady. It's a good
road trip. By the way. I want to go see
the Braves in that new stadium at Arlington. Yeah, Ellington's fine,
all right? So yeah, I would say if the Astros
do not improve off their two game lead, it'll be
a little bit of a disappointment, honestly, seeing everything that's

(47:44):
coming up. You need them to get fat and happy
against Los Angeles. That's right, all right. The big news yesterday,
get all choked up about it. I know it was
the fine the NFL, major, major move. So I'm going
to walk you through what Michael Irvin said, and then
then what happened as soon as Michael Irvin said something,

(48:05):
And you also os an Astros tease? I did Christian
Walker already? Oh that was with Gordy I twoed out.
I have a second tease. No, that's it. Never mind
okay seven one three two one two five seven, Yeah,
thank you. I'm getting used to getting back from vacation. Familarly,
I'm Rusty seven one three you your name is a
ros It's not Rusty seven one three two one two
five seven ninety seven one three two one two five

(48:26):
seven ninety The Cowboys shot the NFL world yesterday. We'll
tell you more about that next. So in media today
and then probably happens in the political world, but certainly
happened in sports the world. You are asked to give
your analysis on things and you say, hey, I think
this is going to happen, or here's how I would

(48:47):
do things, or here's what I know. And there are
some people that just talk out of their ass, and
there are some people that you would say, Okay, this
guy's got connection sources, he's got a feel for the team. Like,
for instance, what I told you that Joe Mixon wasn't
going to play. I'm a Texans insider. I'm just it's

(49:08):
just a fact you are the Texans. And when I
told you that Laramy Tunsel was a bad guy, that
was an insider note that I gave you. His coach
said he's fine. When I well, his coach lied to
you and he got rid of his ass. I don't know,
coach over you. And then when I told you that
Stefan Diggs was a one year and done again Texans Inside, Oh,
the guy on a one year contract was one and done. Well,

(49:29):
it's crazy, great prediction. Well, no, because Stefan Dicks Diggs
was looking to play for the team for the long term.
He said as much. So again you come to me
for Texans Inside. When you want to lift your head
up in the air and stare at things, you go
to other people other here nor there. All right, So
Mikeelervin has been immedia ever since he left playing. Now

(49:51):
he's been in some trouble, but he generally speaking, has
always had a platform to do something. Uh And he
I guess it was a he's a Barstools Sport sky
now he is. So you would think if Barstools Sports
is going to have somebody on to talk about the
Dallas Cowboys, you'd go to a guy that played for
the Dallas Cowboys. Hall of Famer still is connected with

(50:13):
the team, talks about him quite frequently. I think I
think Michael Irvin still lives in the Dallas area. So
here was Michael Irvan yesterday. Uh, I don't I'll give
or take about one thirty or two o'clock in the
afternoon from Sheffer reporting that the Cowboys are now listening
to trade offers for Michael Parsons. What's your reaction to that.

Speaker 14 (50:33):
Michael Parsons say that you can report all you want.
There's no way to allow Michael Parsons to go anywhere.
All of it, all of this is part of the negotiations.
And as I talked to Jerry the other day on
my podcast, and he was talking about it the other
day when he tried to make that offer, he said
somebody told him to shove it up his rear and

(50:56):
all of that. Honestly, it blew my mind. It blew
my mind that any kind of conversation like that will
be going on in a situation like this. Michael Parson,
I wanted to take control of this thing and say
I don't care about you too, and whatever y'all got going,
get your butts at a room and get my money
on that paper. That's what you need to be doing.
So I'm hoping that's what gets done. But I guarantee

(51:18):
Michael Parson's not going anywhere. Cherry's not that crazy. This
is all what we call just negotiation stuff, all right, All.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
Right, Well, surely after them put on the air, Michael
Parsons gets traded of the green Back. Then who feels
worse Michael Irvin for being so wrong on the network
that said, you know what, We're gonna put Michael Irvin
on to be our insider. I mean, sometimes things just
have to be So that's what makes it such a
huge story because it is crazy, like, you know, it's

(51:46):
a possibility. You talk about you like, there's no way,
there's no way that we'll trade away Micah freaking Parsons,
one of the best edge rushers in football on a
team that is looking to challenge the Eagles for the
division in NFC supremacy and playing them in Week one
a week from now. Crazy, Yeah, there are a Green
Bay Dallas playing a was it week four the NFL

(52:09):
season on the Sunday night game of the week or whatever?

Speaker 6 (52:11):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (52:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (52:11):
Think?

Speaker 1 (52:11):
Yeah, I just meant like, did I just met the
season starting in with the season starting in a week?
So this is a little uh information that we'd like
to educate our audience. Unless you know, from the literally
from the horse's mouth that something is never going to happen.
Don't ever go on a television show and say something
is never going to happen. If Michael Irvin was told

(52:36):
by Jerry Jones via phone call or a text, I
am never trading Micah Parsons, then I would go on
Raw Rule Sports and say that. But nothing in life
is ever an absolute. I don't think Jerry Jones wanted
to move him. I think Jerry Jones, in his mind,

(52:58):
felt like he got the He offered him the most
money he could have given him. Just Jerry, even though
he has had issues with signing players, he still pays
them they offer. According to Ian Rappaport, forty one million
a year was the final Cowboys offer, a green Bay
gave him forty seven a year, So the deal was made,
green Bay giving up a couple of first rounds and

(53:19):
a starter. And obviously opinions across the NFL landscape are
mixed about this one. The the Dallas Cowboy I'm carrying
their water is well, we weren't a super Bowl team
with him, and we're not gonna be a super Bowl
team without him, so might as well get the best

(53:39):
value can because now there's so many hard feelings between
the player and the organization. The logical thought to me
is you just made Green Bay a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
The NFC is very winnable this year. And if Jordan
Love has a good season in that defense, which is
obviously significantly better, I mean, it's not Michah Parson is

(54:00):
one of the most dominant defensive players in very much
the prime of his NFL career right now. Yes, I
mean you are trading You're not trading a little bit
past his prime. You're not trading thirty one year old,
been there nine seasons, had been a little bit of injury.
We're talking about the excellence of defensive players in Michael Persons,
and you pair him with Rashaun Garry, who's very good,
and they have some I mean, it can just elevate

(54:21):
the whole team. That's what happened to the Bears defense
got Khalil Mack and they just went from like a
pretty good defense to one of the best in football.
So the reality is this, now they are getting two
first round picks on the green Bay Packers. If Green
Bay is significantly good and deep in the playoffs. Yeah,
there's gonna be low picks. They're low picks. So in

(54:43):
your I mean, if you're in Dallas, you can fall
on your sword and say there's only so much I
can pay, and I can actually get into that kind
of conversation if I only can offer you this, and
I feel comfortable only giving you this, then and I'm
gonna have to live with you being mad at me.

(55:05):
And again, I'm not a great person when it comes
to determining whether or not a player's worth forty one
million dollars or forty seven million dollars. Yeah, I don't know.
We're not a cap we're not a capology. We don't
know what the future caps looking like for the Cowboys. Yeah,
but I mean the reality is Ezekiel Elliott, c d
lamb Uh, Dak Prescott whom I else. I mean, yeah,
they have paid a lot of people. They've paid a
lot of people in the last half dozen years, a

(55:27):
lot of money. And that's what Mike's like, I'm in
the prime of my career. Is my first opportunity to
get that extension. You did it for a mediocre Dak Prescott.
I'm not mediocre, I mean leaked, I'm pro Bowl I'm
all pro I need this, and you have David Mullagetta,
who is the agent pushing that because David mulligetto needs
to get all the time. I mean, he's more powerful

(55:48):
than Drew Harrison House. He just is.

Speaker 17 (55:49):
Now.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
Yeah, I don't I can't confirm her deny that statement,
but I'm not gonna I'm gonna confirm it. I'm gonna
confirm in saying that he is that he was able
to get that. I can't imagine Cowboy fan today is going,
you know what, Jerry, it was tough, but I get it.
Cowboy fan probably today is like Jesus, how did this
get How did this get this bad? And then Michael

(56:12):
Irvin again, how do you miss on that? Literally minutes
after you said that the trade went down, that's what
he believed in his heart. I mean, so now Michael
Irvan today is saying, well, there must have been something
that had happened that we don't know about that made
Jerry change his mind. Because my guess is, in Michael's world,
I talked to Jerry Jones, He's gonna give me what

(56:33):
the skinny R. Yeah, you know who was really excited
about Michael Parson new contract. Who's really excited about my
name is Rhyme's with Bill Randerson Runier. Now he's not
as good as Michael Parsons. No, but I'm gonna think
he's thinking I'm gonna be as good as he is,
But he gets close. This is the beauty of the NFL, though,

(56:56):
the hardcap league. This is why they have the most parody.
You have a guy like Michael park Since in the
NBA or baseball, he's paid and it's over and then
they can continue to stack and build their team. Yeah,
you got to make hard decisions in the NFL. I
love the hard cap. Do you like it hard rather
than soft like the NBA? Yes, believe it. Wow, we

(57:19):
had double sound effects there, finger slip, finger slip. Why,
I'll give you a case in point. People ask me, well,
the Rockets trade Jalen Green? Will they trade Opera and
Chin Gun. I'm gonna tell you I did not. I
never got a mat it ain't happening card for any
of those No, nor should you have. Oh, those guys

(57:40):
aren't the caliber of Michael parsu. But I'm talking about
how you handle your business as a media person. Uh huh. Well,
sometimes we say things are never gonna happen. Like, what,
what's the last time we said something' never never gonna happen. Know,
Texans will never go to a super Bowl. Oh, I
feel very will never play more than one hundred and
thirty games like that. Feel pretty good about that too. Actually,

(58:02):
you're not helping my calls here. I'm actually feel good
about those. Remember, I will become a Texans fan the
moment the Texans go to the super Bowl. That's happening,
not this year, maybe next down that Mahomes might retire.
Michael in the Woodlands at eleven twenty six, Michael, what
do you got today?

Speaker 7 (58:21):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (58:21):
Man, I just went a weigh in on that Mica trade.
I'm probably one of the few Cowboy fans you have
that listened to the show.

Speaker 1 (58:27):
Uh, you know what, I'm okay with that, And Michael,
we appreciate you being a listener to the show. We
don't care if you put team you route for, but
good no go ahead, sir.

Speaker 9 (58:35):
Yeah, man, Honestly, I'm one of the Cowboy fans that
I'm not mad at this trade. I mean, I've watched
every game and he didn't stop Jalen Hurts. He didn't
stop you know, Christian McCaffrey, any legit run game that
came through Dallas, he didn't do anything. I was at
the Lions game. I watched Montgomery, I watched Gibbs run
all over us. So getting a run stopper in Clarks,

(58:57):
you know, that's huge. Yeah, that's great for us. You know,
we were realized we couldn't pay Micah what he wanted.
We have the highest paid to B in the league.
You think we're going to have the highest paid defensive
player too, that's crazy. We can't do that. That would
cripple the team. So similar to the Astro getting rid
of Kyle Tucker. We couldn't pay him. We got rid
of him. We got two first rounders. You know, maybe

(59:17):
we trade those up and we get up in the
draft later on. Who knows, that's not that's two first rounders.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 9 (59:23):
This is the NFL.

Speaker 1 (59:24):
You know, in the NFL nothing, but you're hoping one
of those first rounders gets close to the player that
Micaeh Parsons is. That's the thing.

Speaker 9 (59:31):
Like, I mean, you look at his numbers. Man, he
was tied at number five for facts last year, at
eight the year before that. You know, those, aren't, you know,
record breaking numbers?

Speaker 1 (59:42):
So you have two pass rushers on every team that's
sixty four and he's been top ten for two years
and that's just sack numbers. I think the pressure numbers
are pressure better than that.

Speaker 9 (59:51):
He's also was top five. Are you paying him record
breaking money?

Speaker 1 (59:54):
They paid him a lot of money. Yes, so record breaking.
Let me ask you this. So if he hasn't been
his good let me ask you this, Michael, So, if
he would have stopped Jalen Hurts, would you have changed
your mind about this and said, oh, he is worth
the money. I mean a stop by himself, that's ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (01:00:11):
Huh.

Speaker 9 (01:00:13):
He would have stoped Jalen Hurts. If he would have
stopped Christian mccassley, any of those guys, different conversation, he
probably would have gotten paid.

Speaker 1 (01:00:21):
Okay, So let me this is one more thing. One
more thing I ask you. I ask you on more things.
So is this is this you being cowboy fan going
iv us he's against us and by gosh, good riddance
to you, or would you have been Wow, thank you
Jerry for signing our guy. Because even though he hasn't
been perfect, no NFL player is he's one of the
best at his position. He's top three probably in his position,

(01:00:43):
and I'm glad he's one of ours. I mean, are
you selectively dogging him? I'm not saying you're dogging. Are
you selectively dismissing him because he's not wearing your gear
right now?

Speaker 9 (01:00:53):
I think we started dismissing him when he started giving
up on us, when he wasn't showing up to practice
or he was holding it down. You know, we're getting
live reps and this guy's holding the dummy. We're getting
ready for the league man, and he's not playing. He
shows up to the preseason game meeting nachos laying down. Man,
If you show up to any job like that, you're
getting fired. So, you know, I think we were kind

(01:01:15):
of dismissing him after that when he gave up on us. Yeah,
we were looking at yesterday and we're playing a game
next week and he hasn't taken a snap.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
I mean, come on, thereis Thank you for the phone call,
my friend. I appreciate you listening, and we are your
home for Dallas Cowboys football here in the mar Houston market. Ross.
I'm not saying I'm all the way in on what
he just said. But there's a certain part of me
that if you are so disrespectful and so giving off
the vibe that maybe you do have to go kick

(01:01:43):
the tire somewhere else, you're going to pay him. That's
going to hurt the team. And he's shown no inclination
of wanting to be here. Obviously a lot of resentment.
It can wear on people. It can wear on the organization,
It can wear on Jerry Jones, it can wear on
the Dallas fan base. I wouldn't have done it. I
had to figure out a way to keep him because again,

(01:02:04):
these these guys are not are not easy to find,
especially as dominants. He's been. But I understand why some
would say, you know what, this isn't the worst in
the world. And again, you got an opportunity to take
two first round picks, maybe use both, maybe a couple
them to one, and you've got a run stopper now
on this team. Okay, let's see. ESPN had him third
in football in the pass rush win rate. Pro Football

(01:02:27):
Focus must do it differently. They have him second, behind
only Miles Garrett. They rated him as the second best
ed rusher in football, only behind Miles Garrett. That's ahead
of T. J. Watt, Nick Bosa, I mean, Max Crosby,
Tray Hit, ahead of all those. So like to act
like he's just some guy who doesn't show up. Going
by sack numbers is ridiculous, But I think there is

(01:02:48):
and I going and get your break. I think there
is contract fatigue that can kick in. And I think
contract fatigue kicked in, very bad kicked in for Jerry Jones,
I understand, but acting like he wasn't going, he wasn't
showing up, and he wasn't good enough. I mean that
I would not use his past history as an indictment.
I would say, if you wanted to get mad at him,
it's because of how this situation has been handled in

(01:03:08):
this offseason. That's Hoffing on the Cope with that, I mean,
that's that's the name of your new Bookhuffing on the
Cope Copium. Okay as the kids call it. All right, Uh,
you owe us an apology. I do know the City
Houston does. I don't think of something, Jonathan. You owe
me a lot of City Houston apologies, Johnathan, I might
give you one serial stand by here. I'm gonna be one.

actually gonna be sorry about something that you're really sorry about?

Speaker 2 (01:04:25):

Speaker 1 (01:04:27):

for thinking he was run Castros this year. I'm sorry,
thank you, see the nice and simple then enough to overthink.
It only took him two games and hopefully he has
many more day off. Should be back in the lineup today.
So when I said he wasn't going to hit any

(01:04:48):
home runs. I was wrong, and I want to say, Jordan,
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I think he forgives you. I
think he's fine. How's his hand feeling?

Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
It's uh Dobey back in the line up today. All right,
Jonathan will step back and just listen to this. Goodness?
All right, everybody, You guys don't know. A couple of
months ago, I saw in the schedule then double A
football that my Lumberjacks we're gonna verse the Houston Cougars.

(01:05:19):
And you know, me, being myself and being prideful of
being a Jack, I was like, you know what, I'm
tired of Matt picking on me. I'm finna dog his
team because we're gonna win. We're gonna we're gonna We're
just gonna whoop up. I'm gonna shock the world. Matt
didn't take this kindly, and it's been a feud and
an anticipating feud that ended last night. The score doesn't

(01:05:39):
have to be mentioned.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
What was it that.

Speaker 6 (01:05:44):
It was?

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
Here's what I it was real score twenty seven to nothing,
should have been scored fifty four. And you know he's
not far from the truth. It was an atrocious game.
And I'm so sorry to even hype this thing up
because this team was the most mediocre football team I've
ever watched. And I apologize to all the Cougar fans
out there, and I just want to say I'm sorry.

(01:06:10):
I would like for the University of Houston Parking Department
and roads and highways around our campus to apologize to me.
It was a pain in the ass to get to
the stadium yesterday. What happened was so terrific, terrible, and
we got to get it fixed because we're gonna get
a real opponent coming in in a couple of weeks Colorado. Okay,

(01:06:31):
we got Texas Tech coming into and wow, we got
big dogs. Seven ninety joined it for I'm sorry. So
we go to oh no, he's your MIC's on, Your
micro's on. You can apologized. He turned it off. He
was greeted to folk called ross what you have to
apologize for a lot of things in life. Uh, you

(01:06:52):
know what, I do want to apologize to this guy.
On my Twitter at sports RV, somebody was tough talking
about how they were unhappy with the Astros winning, which
is a ridiculous take, and I quote tweeted it because
I don't know, I've been getting more combative on Twitter lately.
It's probably not good for my mental health, but that's okay.

(01:07:12):
And when I quote tweeted him, this was not my intention,
but like five or six people who follow me like
calling this guy an absolute idiot and a moron and
all the like. I didn't mean for this guy to
get named called by random people when I quote tweeted it,
I just wanted to refute what he said. He was
being spoiled about the Astros, who were exceeding expectations preseason

(01:07:35):
by win total, and also exceeding expectations with all the
injuries that they've had, are actually not having a bad season, folks,
and they're at first place. So there are spoiled fans
who are complaining. But I didn't mean for this guy
to get attacked by everybody, So for that, I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
Sorry.

Speaker 1 (01:07:50):
What's that person's name, Jason Eliazar eli Asada. Okay, is
he worthy of a follow? I'm not gonna no. I mean,
I appreciate him following me, but he's got some ridiculous
he's got very negative to if you go through his feet,
he's very negative about the astros no matter what. Okay,
and some people are just like that.

Speaker 7 (01:08:10):
All right.

Speaker 1 (01:08:10):
Now we have Paul and Roger on the screen and says,
Paul wants to talk astros, which we will do that.
Does anybody want to apologize? We have Roger talking about
the Texans. Now we'll get Jonathan's not getting people to
call in too, So we're looking this is the apology segment.
So Paul and Roger, hang tight. I promise it's anything
goes Friday, which means you're getting on the show. There's
no ifans or bots about that. But we're looking for
people to apologize. Look, you guys are mean, and you

(01:08:33):
ladies are mean. You know you need to apologize that
sweet old lady. You called her a dumb bee, the
same one. Are we still with this? He called her
a dumb bee like an hour ago? Why rude? You
need to let go of your grudges?

Speaker 2 (01:08:48):
Man?

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
Oh no, I am mad is mister Patty? I am
the pettiest person you'll ever get to meet. Who's pettier
than me? Adham Shannon's close. Oh that's true. Love you both,
and remember I will probably blank talk you behind your
back via text. Oh I know, just saying love y'all.

I'm sorry for you. You may sing no, Michael, it's
not good.

So if you want to apologize seven one three two
one two five seven ninety Brian and Pearline wants to apologize,
We'll let them do that. Paul and Roger will get
to you your I think they're legit calls. We wouldn't
want to apologize for them having them. Wait, we'll get
to them. If you want to say you're sorry about
anything you've done this week or said, or if you've
been petty to anybody seven one three two one two

(01:09:45):
five seven ninety seven one three two one two five
seven ninety it's eleven forty three. It's a Matt Thomas
showood Ross more of you calling in to apologize after
I tell you about Uptown appliance repair. I think I'm
supposed to say I'm sorry because I don't side with
Dave Portnoy on the fact he's not welcome to Ohio

(01:10:06):
State on Saturday. I mean, he brings that he's just
a bro dude, right, He's a founder of Barstool, Big
Michigan guy. Yeah, so file State says, no, you're not
coming in here with your slander. I don't blame him.
Good for them, what is that a journalist? What is
the issue? They don't want to credential him or they
don't want to let him. Yeah, they just don't want

(01:10:28):
to like. No, he's yeah, he's not on the beat.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
He's not on the beat.

Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
Yeah, he's a personality. And apparently he's the Pat McAfee
for the Fox New show. By the way, you mention,
but Fox is gonna get the ratings are gonna be
for their pregame show tomorrow Zilch versus Game Day. Yeah, yeah,
it's gotta be great. I'm a great Lee Carso Hellier
not coming up at one fifty, that's so two hours Ross. Oh,

(01:10:53):
I think I spilled this wrong. Yeah, I'll winking the
strippers up in ten minutes here on seven ninety one
three two one two five seven. Houtie, Brian, what are
you apologizing for?

Speaker 6 (01:11:04):
One or two?

Speaker 11 (01:11:05):
Apologize to Christian Walker for his eighth sitting at bat yesterday.
I honestly thought since he had already hit a home run,
he would go down swinging on three pitches and so
Christian Walker, you wound up putting the game and the
series four. So Christian Walker, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (01:11:23):
Yeah, there's I think Phelix would be a fair number
of people should apologize with Christian Walker. He's having a
really good two months. Yes, he's been everything he could
have hoped for for two months before that. And that's
so much grant. Their asters are paying him for six
good months. You know, you think what you can get.
At least he's turned it around. Yep, all right, last

(01:11:44):
call seven alcohol. No, by the way, you know I'm
a travel whore. Yes, I'm glad you said it. There
are six flights, seven flights right now between Austin and Columbus.
Three are private jets, one is the University of Houston

(01:12:07):
or the University of Texas Charter, and there are three
Southwest plains full of fans going from Austin to Columbus. Oh,
so they're gonna brave it. I've talked to some Longhorn
fans who don't want to go there because they've heard
it's really bad with your fans. There are seven flights
in air right now between Austin and Columbus. They're crazy
singing the fight song like Matt Thomas, Well, Texas Fight,

(01:12:29):
I did all right. Nobody else wants to say, I'm sorry.
I see where y'all are. I'm sorry. I'm gonna you're
very honest with yourselves. It is the weekend Paul and
Galveston on seven hoety high. Paul, Paul wonderful on the show.
Oh Jesus, Paul, you there, and I think it's our phones.

(01:12:53):
But he also hung up pretty quick too. Yeah, I
don't know, that's weird. That's a good mix. I apologize
for Paul. Wait, all that time, didn't get to get
his thoughts in.

Speaker 2 (01:13:02):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (01:13:03):
Yeah, yeah, seven seven honey. Roger in Arlington, Roger, good morning,
are you doing guys wonderful?

Speaker 2 (01:13:11):
Wait?

Speaker 1 (01:13:12):
Man, I thought you were in the valley.

Speaker 3 (01:13:14):
I'm in the valley. That's yeah, Harlingen. You pronounced it Harlingen.

Speaker 1 (01:13:17):
Oh, it says Arlington on the screen. Sorry, that was
close enough. That that's Jonathan for you there.

Speaker 6 (01:13:24):
That was not me.

Speaker 1 (01:13:26):
Hey, I apologize for that, now you should. That's not
your fault. Where now your take maybe bad enough to
apologize for.

Speaker 4 (01:13:33):
We go ahead, Roger, Hey, Hey, you know what this
is Cowboy Country where I come from down here, and
they're so upset at that team that just got that
traded their one of their best players.

Speaker 3 (01:13:44):
But I remember when we traded JJ Watt. You know,
it was uh a love and hate relationship with the
Texans and stuff like that. And even though we didn't
get the best of it, I mean, uh, we moved
on and uh we're a better team for that.

Speaker 1 (01:13:58):
Uh wait wait wait, well you said traded to it
in trade J J. Watt?

Speaker 2 (01:14:03):
He left.

Speaker 3 (01:14:03):
Sorry when he I'm sorry, I'm sorry when we left. Yeah,
I'm sorry we traded a player to the Cardinals for it, sir.
That yeah, and so everybody was upset because he was
a you know, he was a good receiver and everything.
But we moved on and we've got you know, it.

Speaker 18 (01:14:22):
Helped us.

Speaker 4 (01:14:24):
That.

Speaker 1 (01:14:25):
Now, Roger, you're I'm sorry for this terrible call. This
is not you're not telling the truth. They called the
team sucked after he.

Speaker 3 (01:14:31):
Left, But I'm talking about I'm talking about the future.
Our future got better.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
I mean but true, No, they got you had easter,
b you had, how did they get better? Seriously asked
me to answer that question.

Speaker 3 (01:14:49):
Okay, so no, no, no, sir, Okay. So then I
come back to the realization when we traded Deshaun Watson right,
and I called the show. I called the show. And
here's my question to you guys. In the long run,
did Deshaun Watson wind up a bust in general or
did he not? Because I got a lot of heat
that No, Deshaun Watson's gonna take Cleveland to to the.

Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
Who nobody said he's taking it in the Super Bowl.
I don't think no, But I think there were some people.
Now granted and Roger, We're gonna let you go on.
This DeAndre Hopkins deal was a disaster, horrible Deshaun Watson
turn out to be a blessing. Not because the compensation
coming back. It was the fact that Deshaun Watson has
has been an utter disaster in Cleveland, largely because he's

(01:15:34):
been not healthy. He hadn't been good on the field,
but he really hasn't been healthy. And Michael Parsons is
twenty six years old. By the way, he's twenty six.
He has not entered his price. He's not even at
his best. He's entering his prime. And I just retweeted
this guy, Brandon Thorne, who I follow for football. He

(01:15:54):
came up with this rate called true pressure rate. It's
about one v one pressure rate. Michael parsons the best
in football. So everywhere you look he's either number one
or number two behind Miles Garrett and football. As far
as edge rushers, he's twenty six. I'm just saying, like
we'll put it this way. You're supposed to when you
have trade, you want to win your trade or the

(01:16:15):
worst case, you want both teams to have the feel
like they got good value in return. I don't know
if Dallas Cowboy fan is going to beating their chest
because they got the Green Bay Packers twenty eighth draft
pick next year, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:16:28):
Who beats her chest about anything outside of top five?
Now if you take those two to try yeah, exactly, Yeah,
you would use those two to trade up to try
to get somebody as good as Michael Parson's that's I mean.
Or arch Oo. Okay, what if arch is coming out?
Would Arch's grandfather say no to the Dallas Cowboys. I

(01:16:49):
don't think Archie is orchestrating where Arch Manning is going. No,
he told he told Uncle Eli were to go. Yes,
he did.

Speaker 3 (01:17:00):
M m.

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
All right, Arch is coming back the first I don't
say unless they win it all. Well, how about if
he's a number one pick, I think he could still
come back.

Speaker 19 (01:17:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:17:11):
See, I if you told a ton of money, if
you told me he was going to be the third
quarterback drafted, I could buy that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:17:17):
I think if you're one dash one, you don't you
do you don't come back. Andrew Luck did it and
that was pre n I l that's right. By the way.
I had someone whisper to me over the weekend what
they whisper And I can't give a divulge it. But
this I believe this to be a John mclan. Oh
it's not John McClain. You want Arch and nil, you

(01:17:42):
better come with seven figures. Oh yeah, I could believe that.
That's Stout. He's doing quite well for him. So mean again,
you can't be Bubba's Pizza. Yeah, he's gonna hang up
on you. You better be Ritza Rut, you better be
roper Ron Arch Manning, who has played what a handful

(01:18:06):
of games as a collegian player, has yet to take
the field in a twenty twenty five game. And you
can't get in with his people unless you have a
deal that starts with probably a one and has six
zeros after that. I don't know exactly what this means.
On three, does their like nil evaluations? They have him
at six point eight million? Does that mean per year

(01:18:26):
or in total? I think that means per year. I
think it's per year. Oh he's he's speaking for maybe
amazing mains. Okay, Marbi Marker the glasses company. Have you
heard of them? Nope, I've heard of them, but I
mean I'm not saying, yeah, that's kind of a big
glasses company. Panini America. They do cards. Okay, Ruber med

(01:18:50):
moles are you doing? Ruber?

Speaker 4 (01:18:53):
You know?

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
Why have I been stuck at four point nine zero?
I have given nothing but good tips and been very quiet.
I deserve a little bump up. I deserve a four
point nine two. Don't you mean four point nine is excellent?
I need a little bit higher. Though it's debatable, it's
not debatable. You've been in cars me. I act like
a true gentleman. Now you usually ask them how much
money they make. You're You're very inquisitive, So that drops

(01:19:14):
my star, right? How much money do you make in
Vegas as an uber driver? That's personal information. They don't
have to give you. They they probably drop you, docu star,
let me take you. They're very happy to have a
conversation because most people are Jabroni's like yourself. You throw
in the back car I have. I'm only vomitted backseat
of one uber. Guess what I've done at zero? I
win four point nine zero, I got four point ninety seven.
Suck it. That's ridiculous. You must be paying. I don't

(01:19:35):
know what you're doing, but it's illegal. Whatever you're doing.
If you if you have an algorithm that's helping you
out me. Look, I'll give you the final numbers soon.
All right, we're gonna wake the strippers up. Let's do that.
I forgot about that. You ready, I'm in deep throat today.
I'm gonna be good too. I'm giving you twenty seconds
right here. Eleven fifty nine. Oh my god, you have
to clip that. You just said you're in deep threat.

(01:19:58):
That's an old timer. Please say that, and also please
copy that into Ross's personal audio folder. And Darcy, that
was horrible.

Speaker 2 (01:20:05):
That was great.

Speaker 1 (01:20:07):
It was horrible. Yeah, fo suck. I will never talk
about basically your community college ever again. If you get
if you get, I'll clip it myself, all right. Hey, uh,
the news, dude is not put the strippers next.

Speaker 16 (01:20:27):
I saw one where it was they were attacking him
because they did the pregame meme of Taylor Swift and
Travis Kelcey and it is like your Astros fans and Jordan.

Speaker 2 (01:20:36):
Yeah. One was like, hey started doing Taylor Swift memes?

Speaker 1 (01:20:40):
How much you'll focus on what you baseball game? He's
just send me a postcard. I got you, you got it? Now,
you're a horrible Kennedy for mister Texas eternally yours. Yes,

(01:21:01):
you didn't even put a stamp on it. I know,
I'm sorry, but.

Speaker 4 (01:21:13):
Turn it.

Speaker 1 (01:21:14):
Turn the music down real quick.

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
Here we go.

Speaker 1 (01:21:16):
You're listening to the Sports Leader. Up you stand seven
ninety Sports Talk seven ninety found fou. I think it

(01:21:39):
was an adolescent. I'm gonna I don't know how to
say how big he was?

Speaker 2 (01:21:42):
He was?

Speaker 1 (01:21:43):
How big is this man? Don't ask me how bigger
thing is there?

Speaker 2 (01:21:47):
What do you think?

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
That's pretty big?

Speaker 3 (01:21:49):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:21:49):
Ain't that big? I've seen bigger. I mean, I've seen bigger.
But it's not bad. It's fair. It's probably not great,
but you know you need approach load, Matt, which.

Speaker 17 (01:22:00):
I know you do.

Speaker 1 (01:22:02):
Yeah, this cast a little little skinny shut up, Tom,
I can hear him. That's our engineer, that's Tom. Snicker suck.
Did you know that, Tom? The show has shifted exactly.

(01:22:25):
They realized that I know what. I don't let me
take you hoten me stay around. I do not care
about the Texans offensive line. I seriously don't care. I
don't care about cuts.

Speaker 2 (01:22:37):
Saw me go to the station.

Speaker 1 (01:22:38):
I don't care. I don't care. I care about Taylor,
I care about your and Alvarez, I care about the Rockets.
I don't care about the eventive line.

Speaker 6 (01:22:46):
I don't care about the cuts.

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
I just don't.

Speaker 1 (01:22:58):
We're down to an hour three for a long weekend
for everybody except me. I'm energized now. I'm working tomorrow
Astros on deck intent think show Yes, And I'm working
on Monday astros on deck in tent, think show what
dang hashtag this weekend. Mister Texas leads by example.

Speaker 17 (01:23:18):
Hmm.

Speaker 1 (01:23:18):
I was supposed to work tonight, but I asked for
ask for some little help from Dan. I appreciate him
helping out, Ye Dan, Matthews, we have a battle for
k Wood tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:23:27):
Oh, what is it?

Speaker 1 (01:23:28):
Kingwood volleyball versus k Park in volleyball? Oh, it's a
blood feud, and I am going into the opposing arena
to do the announcing. Okay, so there, I might special
call it down the middle. That's funny because I told
right away, I said, hey, I'm calling her right down
the middle. My Carl's like, are you sure? I said, yes,
I have to. I can't go on the other Kingwood

(01:23:48):
Park sucks. You can't go, does it? Gentlemen? It's Cagwood
High School versus K Park. I can't do that is
their mascot. I don't park, you know, I don't even think.

Speaker 4 (01:23:59):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:24:02):
You better learned by the time you're the PA game
six and hours away. What is I'm looking it up,
by the way, So again, if you're going to the
k Park k Wood game, it's the Battle for k Wood.
I was gonna say it's the Battle for Wood, but
I felt that'd be a little appropriate. Inappropriate the Wood Battle. No,
I think Battle for k Wood has met is good.
It doesn't say they have to have a nick but

(01:24:22):
I know they have a nickname, but I don't know.
All right, let's get to the news at noon. Oh
they're the Panthers. Are think really the Panthers? That didn't
even wood Park Panthers. Okay, that's illiterative. Or now the papers,
now here's Ross Bitterer real Today's news at noon, thank

(01:24:44):
you mount.

Speaker 19 (01:24:45):
Yeah, we do have the Houston Astros defeating the Colorado
Rockies yesterday in a day game four to three.

Speaker 1 (01:24:53):
Brian Abray you picking up to save. It was a
Jordan Alvarez off day. Everybody was upset, but Christian Walker
picked up the off with a couple of home runs.
Haven't really talked about Jason Alexander. Now, he wasn't spectacular,
he was one out away from a quality start for
five and two thirds, seven hits, eight strikeouts. That change
up really working for him, and he has been very

(01:25:15):
good for the Houston Astros in the month of August.
He has an ERA of under three in five starts.
Jason Alexander found money for the Astros. Man Cy Alexander.
Oh really, that's who we're putting them. I don't know
it fell good, okay either, that's that's fine, That's that's

(01:25:36):
fine all right. Elsewhere, of course, the big news Micah
Parsons traded to the Green Bay Packers. Packers did pay
a premium. They gave up two first round picks. They
also paid him one one hundred and eighty eight million
dollars over four years. One hundred twenty million of that
is fully guaranteed at signing, making him the highest paid

(01:26:00):
non quarterback in NFL history forty seven million a year.
Ian Rappaport says the final offer from the Cowboys was
around forty one million dollars in a year. Fris You
and I we can't possibly decipher whether he's worth forty
or seven or forty one until the market. Gibbs, it's
what David Miller got and his agent got for him. Yeah,

(01:26:20):
And I'm telling you, if you're a Green Bay today,
let's go. You are like, let's LFG on this.

Speaker 6 (01:26:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
I think it's worth it because he's twenty six years
old and he is just coming into his prime. Everywhere
you look at pressure rates and all that type of stuff,
he's he's just one of the best in football. So
the Green Bay Packers are going all in. We'll see
what happens with them and Jordan Love. But I don't
think it's a horrible move for the Cowboys. But I
think it's a move they shouldn't have made. Even as

(01:26:47):
we played earlier. Michael Irvin was shocked that the move
was made, because he said there was no chance it
was gonna happen. We'll put it this way. We are
we dealing the here in the now. If you're a
Dallas Cowboy fan getting ready for opening week, how do
you stop Jalen hurts Michael persons would try to help
you with that. It's not gonna do it with any now,
be part of it, all right, Matt, Big college football
weekend coming up. You have, of course big matchups like

(01:27:10):
Notre Dame versus Miami, Clemson versus LSU.

Speaker 19 (01:27:14):
But it all starts at eleven o'clock Texas versus Ohio State.
Now that I look on ESPN bet, they even have
Texas as the favorite at a minus one and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:27:25):
It had been now see, I told you Texas on
the money line. I told you a month to excused.
I got sources that are so good they even better
than Ryan Day. And it's as good as sources you're
gonna get. Use code nine eighty seven with DraftKings pick six,
all right, Maddy, use no code because I don't have

(01:27:45):
a code code nine eight seven. Oh so Texas now
favored in the game, which, as I said, makes me nervous.
I really want them to win. The good news is
it's not a death knell for the season when the
top twelve team's making it. It's not an SEC Conference game,
which should be a big matchup coming up tomorrow at
eleven am. Longhorns and buck guys. Ten o'clock right here

(01:28:07):
on seven ninety with the game on the pregame show
eleven o'clock, and you know the pregame guys they put
they're working. Let me just tell you, y'all need to
listen to those pregames. We work hard on those things. Listen,
learn love. Sure, so a radio version of the broadcast
eleven o'clock tomorrow right here on the sevende one more
quick news item. Matt I saw this. There was a
report that had come out from Andrew Marshan. It was
with the Athletic now I believe, but you know he

(01:28:28):
doesn't report. You talked about one of the reasons that
we kind of knew this already, but he reported it.
And one of the reasons Jef van Gundy was services
was not retained with ESPN when he was let go
from the top team was that ESPN was not happy
with the way that he was often criticizing officials. Well,

(01:28:50):
it wasn't the ESPN that was upset. It was Adam
Sober calling the head of ESPN, saying, tell your guy
to leave us alone. But you just thought that that
was interesting because he criticize him during But that was
something I think we thought of immediately after he got LEO. Also,
by the way, in that same story, they discussed that
they didn't want every year they kept hearing about Mark

(01:29:11):
Jackson and Jeff ban Gundy getting coaching offers or at
least looks. Yeah, and sometimes when you have somebody, it'd
be like Ross, if you came to this show every day,
tended to We kept hearing your name being talked about
for other shows and other markets. Well, they never called
me back, That's true. We'd get kind of tired of it.
Either you're with us a year against us, Well, I'm
with you for the right price. We're gonna hit sixteen

(01:29:34):
years in January. Oh my god, I gotta throw eighteen
years and we should have some big seven ninety news
coming up soon. Yeah, I've heard something at the end
of the year. I didn't get him INMO. Well, we're
assuming you're not gonna be here, so yeah, I keep
getting good reference calls for your job applications. Yeah, look

(01:29:56):
at rookies and why is rary reen calling asking does
he make a goodlie? But you notice of the blizzards
day when you get one, they flip him upside down
to prove to you how thick they are. Yeah, they've
been doing that for years. That's like, I know that,
and I'm they've been doing like eleven. Yeah, but I know,

(01:30:16):
but you can't do that with a dip cone coneill
fly everywhere. Yeah, they don't do it with a dip code.
By the way, my uber is four point nine, my
lift is five point zero, so suck it. Yeah, but
everybody's got a five point oh onlyft. You know why
if you try to put less than five, they interrogate you.

Speaker 2 (01:30:31):
Really, I did not know.

Speaker 1 (01:30:32):
Yeah, they give you like a full interrogation. So if
you hit five, you're like, all right, fine, five. But
I had to do it, you know what, since we're
doing Friday sories, there was an old man. I'm sorry.
Clearly if an old man is driving lift he's got
something hasn't gone wrong. You know he needs He was
over sixty five, he needs to be retired. He was
driving too slow, he wasn't merging on time. I had
to give him. I gave him a nice tip, but

(01:30:53):
I gave a couple of I think I only gave
like two stars. And then Lyft asked me why, and
I was like, this guy shouldn't be on the road.
Why you give him a tip? Then, just because you
need obviously he needed cash'll give him a couple of bucks.
I would throw him a couple of bucks. I feel
bad for the guy. Johnathan is not prime tipper by
the way.

Speaker 3 (01:31:11):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:31:12):
No, No, I'm a moral a moral temper. What the
hell is a moral tipper? Almost ran me off the road.
He didn't almost run me off the road, but he
went the wrong way multiple times. He was slow to react,
like he should not have been on the road. So
you're enabling him to keep doing it? To no, I'm
giving no. I gave him a bad review and I
told Lyft he shouldn't be on the road, but she

(01:31:32):
gave him a tip. I give him a couple of bucks. Yeah,
because clearly he needs cash. Now, that's up. So you
would give tips for bad service, see not necessarily gave
you got bad service in your drive. Yeah, I would
have given him more if he had have got a
good So again, hey, everybody, when you go, when Ross
is at your restaurant, give him, give him below average service,
you'll still tip you. A tip is your opportunity to

(01:31:54):
give a little bit of extra cash to somebody who
is otherwise as not making a working wage. So yeah,
it's up to you. If you want to give him
zero dollars, I say that's fair. But also if I
want to give him a couple of bucks, because clearly
he's an old man who should be retired and needs
the money, I can give him a couple bucks. Two
m okay, Uh, you're nicer than I am. I'm not

(01:32:17):
going to tip for ports. Yeah, if you didn't want to,
that's fine. And get him off the road. Try and
get his ass, whole ass off the road. Seven one
three two one two five seven Hondrey. You know it's funny, Jonathan.
There was an old man sitting next to me one time,
and he was making love to his tonic and gin,
and he said to me, Sonny, don't know why he
called me son. He said, Son, can you play me

(01:32:37):
a memory? And I said, I really don't know how
it goes. But then he said, but it's sad and sweet,
and he knew it complete because he used to marry,
used to wear a younger man's clothes. It's just that
old man. I was thinking about. Shout out to you,
my friend out there. Seven one three two one two
five seven seven one three two one two five nothing

(01:32:59):
to kill. I got an unpopular take for your sports
are we? This is not one of my not one
of my favorite Billy Joel songs. Shot, that's okay. This
is one of the rare Billy Joel songs I do
not have downloaded on my phone. Oh you're smirking, Go ahead,

(01:33:23):
I got nothing, no a bad liar, I can never
get you. Yeah, it's good. It's okay. You said this
about the concert because you don't love Billy like I
love Billy. Piano Man is one of the all time
great songs, and he has a couple of really good songs.

(01:33:44):
But I don't revere Billy Joel like many others do,
so other people will put him in the category of
I don't know the Beatles or Elton John and I
don't you know it's funny. Did you see the documentary
about him, The Two Parts and so it goes? Yeah,
it was called chuggin Pine, So all right, it's not
called chucking pine, sal Jesus. I mean there was some

(01:34:05):
other names for it. I mean there could have been
bad motorcycle driver. How do you screw up Christie Brinkley,
I mean Brinley, the Brinkley fumble? Yeah, I mean, how
you screw that up? That's an automatic, It's a lay
up drill. But he had some number one hits, but
he also had as many songs as people love that
are Billy Joel? Fans of his uh huh were not

(01:34:27):
super popular, okay, like scenes from Italian Restaurant was not
a tough point, right, I mean, pianel Man did okay,
but it wasn't a number one I don't like Pressure
at all. I like Pressure. Uptown Girls one of the
worst songs of all time, but very popular on the track.
Uh do you know what his first number one song was?
I don't still rock and roll to me? It's fine,
but it took him like seven years to get there.

Speaker 2 (01:34:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:34:50):
See, I was looking to flip those my My intention

great all time. I mean, this is a great song.
It's universally beloved. Yeah, isn't We've we've had this fantasy
five before.

Speaker 3 (01:35:22):
Is this?

Speaker 1 (01:35:24):
We did it for a two AM song? We did
a two AM songs. Yeah, like the closing time at
the bar song. Piano Man, Tiny Dancer, Yes we did. Yeah,
we've talked about that. Sweet Caroline, Sweet Caroline. Uh, you
won the list, but it was we both had a
respectable list. They were bad, but yeah, Tiny Dancer, I
mean that's a two am A oh man, you've about

(01:35:45):
that little Hold Me Closer, Tiny Dancer. The only problem
with Piano Man is I ran into this when I
sang at karaoke at Ristian's Row Rate one time, but
it was is this a long song? It's got many
verses to him? Yes, but and you've but but people
loved it so much that you did. Manager bought the
entire bar drink said, whoever this guy is, he can

(01:36:07):
really sing and it's kind of out of my octave
because I'm a crack I remember the manager really Joel
or buff.

Speaker 2 (01:36:17):

Speaker 1 (01:36:19):
We can do a karaoke sometimes, so we have not.

Speaker 6 (01:36:21):

(01:36:44):
I am excellent. Craig, Craig is okay, and Ryan just
joins and he doesn't know the words any of the songs,
but he just joins it and sings anyway, just the
way you are. It's a jam. That song is his
first hit. That song was nineteen seventy three, Just the
Way You Are nineteen seventy seven. Hmmm, piano man was

(01:37:10):
seventy three? Would you say this first? I thought you
said something else? Was his first hit?

Speaker 3 (01:37:14):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:37:14):
No, his first number one was Old Time was the
first number one. So when when was Just the Way
You Are with seventy seven? I thought it was really
early than That's what Google says, you know, I always
believe Google do you over you? Yes? Generally, generally I'm
gonna go with Google over you. But I mean, you're
not gonna you can win one every now and then.
It's true. I gotta figure this out. Now, I'm upset.

(01:37:35):
Cougar cris on seven And how about that game last night?

Speaker 17 (01:37:38):
Hear krass?

Speaker 1 (01:37:39):
Whoa Cougar's for the laft suck at Lumberjacks sucker Jack's
It was.

Speaker 6 (01:37:46):
It was a solid performance. We did just what we
had to do, uh, to make sure we stayed basic
and stuff like that to get through it. It's nothing
to be, you know, not like beating Texas or something
like that. But we were solid. I'd like for see
a few less penalties and stuff. But as I was
talking to mister Pardee at halftime, you disappeared really fast.

Speaker 1 (01:38:06):
Well, guess my son was in a was in a
suite with some friends of mine. So I went and
saw him. So sorry about that.

Speaker 6 (01:38:12):
Ah cool, So anyway, you know, he said, he said,
I asked you, what do you think? And he said,
you know, we're just doing doing basics. Nothing fancy that
sort of thing. So I was glad to get through it.
I want to I want to do a lousy shout,
a bad shout out to the academy in my area here.
Went in there today because I couldn't find what I
wanted at the Cougar shop last night, and went in there,

(01:38:33):
and this academy in my area has absolutely no University
of US in gear. But not only that, they have
zero collegiate gear.

Speaker 1 (01:38:42):
None.

Speaker 6 (01:38:43):
And you would think starting college football season off that
people would be looking for gear, but noop, not one U, T, A,
n M, you know anything like that.

Speaker 1 (01:38:52):
Well how about that. You ready for this, Chris, I'm
gonna sell you some coon. Chris is gonna that's going
to destroy you a little bit. You're ready for this.
My son who was a Texas Tech grad and he
he likes the Cougar's because he knows me. He went
to another He went to a competitor of Ratie. He
bought a University of Houston Tommy Bahamas shirt, which I

(01:39:15):
don't even realize I had. I didn't either. In its slick.

Speaker 2 (01:39:21):
It is happy. Are you ready for this?

Speaker 1 (01:39:23):
There's one hundred there's one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 6 (01:39:26):
Who yeah, absolutely, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:39:29):
It's so ridiculous, so ridiculous, and a lot of it
is very low. It's got more expensive and lower quality
over the years.

Speaker 3 (01:39:36):
Does that right?

Speaker 6 (01:39:37):
You're exactly right, You're exactly right. But just a little
shout out of somebody at uf H is listening and
I haven't asked those question for you, but anybody's listening
to nothing from the u of H this morning. Uh,
the West Terrace last night did not had not been
cleaned since last season, and there was no bar set up,
there was no water, there's no popcorn, no nothing, And uh,
that's kind of embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (01:39:58):
My facilit I gotta be honest with you. It's not
it's not. It's not. It's not the Athletic Department's fault.
It's it's the you know, it's central campuses facilities.

Speaker 6 (01:40:06):
Yeah, I know, and I just said. My joke was
to people, I said, you know, this is the first
year we've ever.

Speaker 1 (01:40:12):
Done this, you know, so there's going to be some
hiccus question Chris.

Speaker 6 (01:40:18):
Yeah, and you may not be able to answer it,
but you may be able to give me kind of
an educated ideas with all the rehab assignments have been
going on. You know, reor on goes down to A,
some people go to three A, that sort of thing.
What do they look at when they're deciding if somebody's
going to go rehabit two A, are going to rehabit

(01:40:39):
three air or something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:40:40):
It's only it's not about the competition, Chris, And thank
you for the phone call. It's about where the teams are.
They want to keep him as close to Houston as possible,
Like you're not going to send jord and Alvarez to
Northwest Arkansas to play game or to Reno. Yeah, if
the if the Space Cowboys are home, or yes, Hooks
are in Corpus or they're Austin or something. Yet keep
it double A, keep it double A, and keep it

(01:41:01):
triple A and then for the most part try to
keep him. Didn't didn't justin Verlander have to do. It
was like last year or the year before he had
to do one crazy one. Yes, he had a game
in Arkansas and you were like, well, you know he's
gonna hang out the boys on the bus and I'm like, rock,
shut up, he is flying a charter plane. Yeah. By
the way, I got my Billy Joel songs mixed up.

She's Got Away was the song I was thinking. That
was his first semi hit. I was just the Way
You Are is do a different start. She just wanted
to chart was Piano Man in seventy three. Yeah, She's
Got Away was his first single. Yeah, that's what I
was thinking about. And by the way, listen to She's
Got Away. His voice sounds so young and doesn't have
drugs alcoholic. His young, velvety voice is very good. Yeah,
She's got a way excellent song. But yeah, that was

(01:41:43):
the first song that I was thinking about. And he
wrote it about his first wife. He's been married seventeen times,
four times. Yeah. Just the Way You Are was his
first top ten hit in nineteen seventy seven, first top
five hit hit number three, and Uptown Girl Whom May
number one too. Right, I was assimming, I don't know

Yankees over here? Wait is this true? Jackie Kennedy? No,

mauled by a mountain lion in the middle of class.

Speaker 2 (01:45:53):
So I'm on.

Speaker 1 (01:45:53):
I'm on Scott Street. Yesterday I almost took a video
of it. There was three police officers resting somebody right
in the middle of an intersection at Scott and whatever.
I was like, this is tailgating at you as I
was like, I don't know, Yeah, that sounds about you
jailgate with the bracelets on. Go kudes. I'm going to
slander your school for the next hour and twenty and

(01:46:15):
then I'm done. I'm because I'm a I'm a responsible person.
Let's talk to Adam and Tom Ball at twelve forty
one on the Matt Thomas Show. Ross, Adam, good afternoon
to you.

Speaker 3 (01:46:27):
How you doing.

Speaker 5 (01:46:27):
Hey, y'all guys doing.

Speaker 1 (01:46:28):
We're amazing, Thank you, awesome, awesome.

Speaker 5 (01:46:32):
I got one thing for that guy that just called
dam damn.

Speaker 1 (01:46:37):
Oh, a little Flida Evans on him. I got you
what else you got?

Speaker 5 (01:46:40):
Yeah? Anyways, Hey, I got a little somem on CJ. Stroud. Look,
I'm just gonna get us some opinions. Let you get
you and Ross's opinions on this. I got my opinion.
But I'm just waiting for him to break out, you know,
like dogs, you know what I mean. Like, I mean, hey,
it just doesn't seem like he's just got that that him,
Like I know, he's got that calm demeanor.

Speaker 1 (01:47:02):
Love it, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:47:04):
And everybody was ripping about that Seattle hat he had on.
And I don't know what that other hat he had on.
I said it has an I E and like a
halo on it when he had the interview on ESPN
A first take.

Speaker 7 (01:47:15):
I don't know what kind of hat that.

Speaker 5 (01:47:16):
Was, but it's all good. I'm a huge Texans fan.
Just wait for him to break out. Uh, you know,
I think we're gonna see a more running from him
this year.

Speaker 1 (01:47:25):
You know, he's doing a.

Speaker 5 (01:47:27):
Slide on the on the on the pad over there
in a greenvire, But I mean, I don't know how
much that's gonna last for whatever. But I know he's
not trying to get hurt for one thing. I mean,
we need to throw out the playoffs and you know
he's trying to stay healthy. But I'm just waiting to
see that dog in him. You know, what are you'all opinion?
I got I got another Joe missing thing too I

(01:47:48):
want to talk about. But what do you I mean,
what do y'all think?

Speaker 1 (01:47:52):
Yeah, he needs to break out. Obviously regress in his
second season. He's got more weapons now, the offensive line
isn't as good, and I have a gut feeling at
him that he just wasn't one hundred percent. There was
kind of hinted at a couple of times throughout the season,
at the towards the end of the year and at
the postseason that that he wasn't a one hundred percent.
But it's the NFL. Nobody out there by the end
of the season is one hundred percent. So he's definitely

(01:48:14):
got to bounce back and make that leap forward that
we all thought he was going to make.

Speaker 5 (01:48:19):
Absolutely, Yeah, that's what I'm looking forward to.

Speaker 3 (01:48:21):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (01:48:22):
And I mean he looked very good in the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (01:48:24):
He started running more and uh, you know, yeah, I'm
so excited about his weapons. I really think Jaalen Owell
is going to break out too.

Speaker 6 (01:48:31):
That's my that's my sneaky pit, all right, you know,
yeah so Jaalen Owell.

Speaker 5 (01:48:35):
But anyways, on the Joe Mixon side, ye uh, I
just think I just think they're trying to keep.

Speaker 1 (01:48:40):
Him healthy, be honest with you.

Speaker 5 (01:48:41):
The four games whatever, all the stuff that they say
about him, I just really think they're trying to keep
him and he's going to be a workhorse. Uh, you
know throughout even you know, even if he makes it
to the playoffs too, but him paired with jord On,
I think they're keeping him, you know, hey, keeping him
at bay.

Speaker 1 (01:48:57):
He's no, no, no, no, Adam, I hate to tell
you that. I don't believe it to be accurate.

Speaker 2 (01:49:01):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:49:01):
I don't think he's healthy. I think he's hurt. If
if he was ready to go, he would be playing
in week one. Nobody they don't stock pole running backs
because they are hoping to save him for the later
of the year.

Speaker 2 (01:49:11):
Either.

Speaker 1 (01:49:12):
If he's ready to go, he would be ready to go. Yeah,
he can't even practice it week four. I just don't think, Adam,
he's I mean, i'd be again. I don't want to
predict anyth because I don't know anything because they're keeping
it sighter. But I there's no way in the world
right now he could put a uniform on and can
try to contribute.

Speaker 3 (01:49:28):
Well.

Speaker 5 (01:49:28):
He was nursing that injury too at the end of
the season and into the playoffs too, wasn't he He
was nursing that that ankle injury would kind of bother
him as well, right.

Speaker 1 (01:49:35):
Yeah, And that's what the thing is that We're we're
loaded here in secrecy, Adam, thank you for the phone call.
It's is it ankle? Is it foot? Is it both?
Is it shattered? Is it crushed? Is it sprained? Is
there ligament damage?

Speaker 2 (01:49:48):
And guess what?

Speaker 1 (01:49:49):
The Texans don't want you to know, so they're not
going to tell you it is what it is. So
guess what you're gonna do. You're gonna people search it
and chase him. Yeah, and digging and digging. We hair
have sent Now I'm a Texans insider. You guys know
that when I hear something, what injury does he have?
I'm still in I mean still insidering. Okay, you need

(01:50:09):
to confirm from multiple sources. You only have one source
right now? Correct? You gotta corroborate your sources. Yeah, you
usually get three, okay, I usually I'm gonna get four
this time, just to make sure I'm okay.

seven on a Hello, Andy, Hey.

Speaker 8 (01:52:10):
Good afternoon, guys. I want to apologize to Ross. Oh yeah,
I'm late to it. I just sat in my car
where I know it was Friday, the apologies.

Speaker 15 (01:52:24):
I called in last week, I think and Ross was
doing a tenth inning show and something happened on a
road trip to where somebody was given away cheeseburgers for
free because the Astros won on a road game.

Speaker 1 (01:52:38):
And Ross is like, did you really just call in?

Speaker 15 (01:52:41):
Because the Astros one and somebody else has given away cheeseburgers,
and my wife and my kids made fun of me
for calling in for it, and then Ross didn't like
it either, So I'm calling in apologize.

Speaker 1 (01:52:52):
Call that's all right, Andy, I vaguely remember what you're
talking about. You wanted the Astros to do that. It
was the Brewers, right, You called it.

Speaker 8 (01:53:03):
Yes, And they were like, they get swept. They give
away some restaurant.

Speaker 1 (01:53:07):
Local in give the burgers, and you said Houston needed
to do that or something I can't recall.

Speaker 7 (01:53:14):
No, I was just like, do you know the name
of it?

Speaker 6 (01:53:16):
Because oh, that's right.

Speaker 1 (01:53:18):
Yeah, that was a ridiculous call.

Speaker 2 (01:53:19):
Andy.

Speaker 1 (01:53:19):
I'm sorry, but we appreciate it. But I appreciate you
for apologizing.

Speaker 8 (01:53:24):
I had a little too much fun with my friends
that night.

Speaker 1 (01:53:27):
Oh I got you. Yeah, man, he called in. He
was like, hey, there's a there's a burger restaurant Milwaukee
giving away burgers. You know what it's called. I was like, no,
I don't, Andy. I would go to Google and then
that was basically the gist of his call. Well, Andy
had had a few. He had a few too many
with his friends. So that's all right, Andy. We appreciate you.
It's funny we eliminated drunk callers. I mean, we lose
a week. We want y'all lit seventy five percent of

(01:53:49):
our calls we lose. I had one a couple of
days ago. It was kind of interesting. Guy calls up
and says, hey, uh, I noticed that Brian and Braine
has music. Now when he comes in to finish games,
is he the new closer? And I said Brian Bray you,
I said, yeah, because Josh Hitter is hurt and probably
not gonna come back this year. And so usually your

(01:54:10):
eighth inning guy becomes your ninth inning guy when your
ninth in guy gets hurt and he goes, okay, that
makes sense, said okay, So we're here for man what
line five? What what are we doing? Line five?

Speaker 10 (01:54:26):
New York?

Speaker 1 (01:54:38):
So after the Astros beat the Angel, what's uppen next?
Then him and John He's coming to Dad. He's gonna
strake out a bunch and the Astros are gonna beat
the Yankees at Leaves to one, a sweep. He's a
whiff machine sixty six WF And we're gonna go to

(01:55:01):

races and stuff like that. But most Italian people they
will not touch meat loaf. Okay, they're like a good
you ball, parme Jean or whatever or Spaghettian meatballs, but
they ain't gonna eat eat no meat loaf. So whoever
that clown was talking about, you know, comparing that group meetloads,
the group is okay, but when when you're talking about
Billy Joel, you also gotta lay off that dude because

(01:56:07):
number one, he's talking about Billy Joe. They love his music,
they love they love his persona, his lifestyle and everything.
And also that list that you had. Look, Abe Gardner
is the perfect clean up in uh in that lineup
with all the women that he dated, because he was
really attached to that lady. Okay, but I appreciate you

(01:56:28):
taking my call, and look, I expect my Yankees to
show up. If they don't show up, I'd be terribly
disappointed along with all my people out there from Yankee
universe because and shouts out to uh, to that Yankee
guy Keith and everything.

Speaker 1 (01:58:43):
All right? Non forigna stories in one half hour? What yes?
Hell yeah? Not all things Lee Corso, it is about
Thomas Show with Ross. Let's get to some astros conversation.
We'll do that to start the final hour of the show.
And Ross is gonna give us a prediction what it's
going to happen in the game against Texas versus Ohio State.
All in the final hour of the Matt Thomas shold Ross.

(01:59:05):
This is Sports Talk seven ninety is the Matt Thomas
Show with Ross What four on Sports Talk seven. You know,
we're always concerned about our youth sports RV, but sometimes
they're way more knowledgeable than ready to give them credit
for case in point, I found this video on Instagram

(01:59:27):
with a reporter and a young child. So why don't
you like the Longhorns because they use liquid smoke on
their barbecue and serve it with avocado toast, Matt, that's
AI video. No, it's not that was that was ever
legenmate reporter talking to a young child. God, you're you're

(01:59:49):
you're reaching gramps status. Loving these AI videos with children.
It's pretty sad man. Austin has many of the best
barb barwick you with liquid smoke? Is that I do
not barbecue with liquid smoke. You use post oak, Matt,
not liquid smoke. And Austin is home to many of

(02:00:10):
the greatest barbecue places in the nation, including insert intertellar Barbecue,
which you can find my review of at my Instagram barbecue. Well,
I had some bad things to say about them. What
was a bit worse thing about it? Brisket was a
little tough, isn't brisket typically tough? No good? But yeah,
where you get it, see, Matt, you just you get

(02:00:32):
the side of the road joint and then you never mind.
I'm gonna leave you alone. That was the only problem
you had with it. It's they got a Michelin star, Matt.
The food's pretty good and the stars and the sides
were okay, sides were great. Jib dessert I'll you can
find out at sports RV on Instagram my full review. No,
but they have great barbecue in Austin. So this video

(02:00:52):
for number one, it's dumb AI video number two it's
not even true and it's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (02:00:58):
You tell me.

Speaker 1 (02:00:58):
The people that go to Texas ex Longhorned fans don't
eat avocado toast. Some of them do. I bet more
than I bet. But if you if you eat, I
don't really eat avocado toast. I got a Texas Insider
and said they do eat avocado toast. Oh huh, yeah,
that's right, Texans insider. Texan insider. What's wrong with avocado toast?
It's a little metro. So you don't like avocado's? Oh

(02:01:19):
my god, I forgot you know what me either that
you know you don't like any avocado or on a
wakamney gas. Okay, do you like cocamoe met No at
all at all? Have you tried it like in the
last three multiple times? But he gets into like Rocko Rorenge.
Let me tell you, Let me tell you, let me
tell you. Guagam is not great.

Speaker 4 (02:01:41):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:01:42):
If you're a guy by ordering avocado toast, your name
is probably Blair. I've had out avocado toast before.

Speaker 2 (02:01:50):
You don't.

Speaker 1 (02:01:51):
You don't do it on the regular, not on the rag.
But there are some Brodie's, there's some Dylan's, there's some Uh.
It's usually overpriced. It's like slight. He's the avocado and
a piece of toast, and it's like ten dollars and
they throw an egg on there. Oh, nineteen ninety five. Yeah,
that's a little much. I'm with you. I'm just saying,
real men don't needt avocado toast. You can eat avocado,
but you can hear mocatto toast. Put you. When I

(02:02:12):
think of a real man, I think of Matt Thomas.
You show he's the arbiter of man, the arbiter of
what a real man is.

Speaker 21 (02:02:18):
I'm a Fahida, I'm the guy, Oh my god, with
potatoes and pablano pepper and fijeeda meat and salur cream
and salsa and hash browns and pancakes.

Speaker 1 (02:02:29):
I would throw an ass meal eighty five to ninety
five percent of the men eating avocado toast will whip
your ass. That's not true. I'd put it then more
than the fourteen to twenty percent category. You're right, ninety
five to ninety eight percent. Here's a man who knocks
back some avocado toast, a complete fraud because he told
me his Yankees were going to beat the Astros in
New York a couple weeks back. We have I heard

(02:02:49):
from his ass in a few weeks. Hello, yah, yeah, yeah, Yankees, Keith,
Where the hell you been.

Speaker 7 (02:02:56):
H taking care of business in my light?

Speaker 4 (02:02:59):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (02:02:59):
Huh whatever? You're such a fraud.

Speaker 3 (02:03:03):
Hey, you know what?

Speaker 7 (02:03:04):
You know that your announcer, Robert Ford.

Speaker 1 (02:03:08):
Mine, it's easy. He's an America's announcer.

Speaker 7 (02:03:12):
If he was a Yankee announcer, he's be at the
hospital for all to see, you laters that that the
Yankees his We got at least eight players that are
gonna hit twenty one runs. We're gonna win the American
League East. And I will be at the game Wednesday
in the right field stands. I think I'll take my
delve for a foul ball.

Speaker 1 (02:03:35):
Well, all right, good, you don't describe what happened last
time the astros for the Yankees. Do you want to
tell the audience what happened?

Speaker 7 (02:03:44):
Well, we we we put pitched Devin Williams. I said,
if Devin Williams getting in the game, we're gonna lose.

Speaker 1 (02:03:50):
Guess what, he's on your twenty six man roster. You
have to pitch. You have to use guys that are
on your roster. That's just life. That means it's it's
roster in adequacy. That's your problem. Your roster.

Speaker 2 (02:03:59):
So soon.

Speaker 7 (02:04:02):
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday will complete this week.

Speaker 1 (02:04:06):
Okay, about that, I don't want fun to be accurate
at all.

Speaker 7 (02:04:12):
Well again, I'm gonna reenterate. We're gonna win the American
League East. We're going back to the World Series.

Speaker 1 (02:04:19):
Okay, and this time we'll win. And this time you
won't cheat as much. Okay, that, thank you very much, Yankees. Keith.
And by the way, he will be in the stands
on Wednesday night wearing his glove so you can catch
a foul ball. I'm okay with that. People like to
crush people for taking gloves. They're hitting like one hundred
and ten mile an hour of rockets out there. Man.
Let me tell you something, when I sat in that

(02:04:39):
Crawford box and heard that George springer ball whisp by
me with a sizzle to it. Bring your glove exactly. Now,
let me ask you this. If he is in foul
ball territory and he's like second deck, are there any
no scissors coming that way? Right? I don't care if
you want to bring a glove. You can be a

(02:05:01):
tough guy with your fractured hand. All you want. You
don't want to want to bring somebody wants to bring
a glove. I'm not judging exactly. You're gonna take your
hand off no matter where you are. Yeah, you're not
puts gloves on, and it enters a flight. So nervous
about things, you know, I I'm gonna agree. I think
bringing a glove is not a terrible thing. If you
bring a glove to the press box, that's a problem.

(02:05:23):
They're gonna kick you. Bryan McTaggart's like.

Speaker 2 (02:05:25):
Why is it can right? With one hair?

Speaker 1 (02:05:26):
I got glove in my other on I can't write
that's true. I think Channel Rome brings a glove.

Speaker 2 (02:05:31):
I think so.

Speaker 1 (02:05:35):
All right? Uh one ten on Sports Talk, seven non
Flora stories come up to this show's kind of flown
by the day. I would say, it's just yeah, blowing by.
It's it's frankly been our fastest four hour show. We've
got fifty minutes. It's the fastest four hour show I've
done this week. Well, you've hardly worked. You only worked
like two hours yesterday. I know you took off at
your segment one that show. It's pretty sweet. And you're

(02:05:56):
off Saturday, off, on Sunday, off on Monday day. Absolutely. Meanwhile,
I'm working Saturday off, on Sunday, Friday, Monday, I'm working.
I'll give you a pat on the back in an hour.
You're doing great maths.

Speaker 2 (02:06:09):
Proud of you.

Speaker 1 (02:06:10):
That's why I'm mister Texas Sexans andt Centa and mister
seven ninety hmm. If you were to put a face
on the logo of the station, it'd be mine. No,
we'd probably Sean probably man sew. That's right. Sorry, I
forget all right? Uh seven one three two one two
five seven, honey, let's come back, honestly, Uh, what do

(02:06:32):
you want from Arch? What do you want from the team,
Because look, I don't think we've got a whole lot
of Ohio State people here, but we got a few
people that are Texas fans, and oh, by the way,
uh Hackey fans are a little nervous bout ole utsa.
That game isn't an easy gimme for the uh Aggs
against the Roadrunners Saturday at Kylefield. We'll get to that
and if you would like to smack talk SFA their

(02:06:54):
lack of showing up, which was really no surprise because
I got dominated by an amazing defense seven one three,
one two points zero almost got there, guys, they all
they were at like eighty six yards in toll offense
through three quarters. It was embarrassming. Just ought to be
ashamed of yourselves. But you know, it's what's that, SFA?
What are you gonna do? Seven one three two one

(02:07:15):
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two
five seven nine zerold what twenty on Sports Talk seven
ninety isn't anything goes Friday. I hope you guys enjoy
your Labor Day weekend. Remember I'll be with you Saturday
and Monday for Astros coverage. Astros against the Angels to
start a four game series. Tonight, Astros find themselves two

(02:07:36):
games in front of the Mariners in the American League.
West On deck with Adam Wexer at six o'clock. First
pitch will be at seven to ten. Tanner Anderson throws
today for the Halos two and eight with a four
point seven three ERA. Christian Hobber one in one with
a five forty ERA will throw for the Stros. Ten
innings so far for Christian Hoviers this season, hits ten strikeouts,

(02:08:03):
six walks. I think if you've learned anything before we
go back on the phones that just because players come
back don't necessarily mean they're going to come back and
be immediate helpers for your squad. Now you're not hitting
a home run in the second game back was cool,
It was nice. He's been walking, He's got like fifteen walks,

(02:08:23):
but the rally was Arragety has had one subpower performance
and one encouraging one. Javier has had frankly three lousy
ones to one because of illness. I thought his first
one was over. We got ten innings in three starts. No,
it can't be good. Five innings to earn runs against Boston.

(02:08:44):
It wasn't bad. So it's a five to three into two?
Is that how it worked? Yeah, it's going it's getting
proggressively worse.

Speaker 2 (02:08:50):
And then uh.

Speaker 1 (02:08:52):
Last mccullors was so good in his one start back
against Baltimore that he's been sent to the bullpen. And
he's probably very cranky about it. Well, he's gonna have
to get over it. No, this is big boy baseball.
You can hang out with the boys and the bully.
You're making eighteen million dollars. Yeah, your contract doesn't change. Yeah,
team took carry you. I mean you feel like you

(02:09:13):
should get a demotion and you should get a downgrade
and pay, but you know it doesn't work that way.
We'll see if he's used, hopefully not, because that means
the starters are doing well and going deep into games. Well,
if he's not used by if he's not used tonight
or tomorrow, my guess is he pitches Monday. Yes, but
I think it's very very possible he does tonight or tomorrow.

(02:09:34):
Let's go to uh Frank on seven ninety at one
two Frank, Good afternoon.

Speaker 18 (02:09:39):
Good afternoon to you.

Speaker 1 (02:09:40):
How are you amazing?

Speaker 2 (02:09:42):
Great? So you guys were.

Speaker 18 (02:09:45):
Talking a little while ago. Well, when you played a
clip from it, you know.

Speaker 22 (02:09:48):
Meat Welve's Paradise by the dashboard lights, the Phil Rizzuto clip,
and I don't know if you know this or not,
but they did that and release the album without philm
He had been recorded and was part of.

Speaker 18 (02:10:02):
It, so he was not a happy camper when that happened.

Speaker 22 (02:10:06):
And then I guess they said, well, we'll start cutting
your royalty checks.

Speaker 18 (02:10:12):
And he kept quiet after that. But it was kind
of an interesting I grew up in the New York area,
and that was kind of an interesting story around there
because of course we all recognized the scooter's voice, right,
and it was pretty amazing. I actually was at the

(02:10:34):
stadium one day and me and a couple of my
buddies were walking around and we ran into Fill pre
game and he nice guy. He stopped and chatted baseball
with us for a little while and then he says, hey, guys,
I got to get to work enjoy the ballgame. So
hats off to Phil Rosida was a nice guy.

Speaker 1 (02:10:52):
All right, Thank you for the phone call, right, appreciate it.

Speaker 17 (02:10:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:10:55):
I can't imagine in twenty twenty five you putting any
song out there with anybody's lyrics or name or anything
and not saying, you know, maybe had a lot of
phone call to the guy. It was a different time.
Matt No, that's I'm not gonna go to that card.
I don't know. It was in nineteen seventy. Yeah, by seventies,
he should have known that. The record Phil Rizzuto, when
was that? What was that song called again Crappy saw
My meat Loaf? I don't know. I don't think that.

(02:11:17):
Oh yeah, meat Paradise by the Dashboard Light nineteen seventy seven. Yeah,
come on, meat Loff, you gotta be better than that.
He's dead, Matt. Okay, well, meat loafs soul be better
than that. By the way, Week two of game Day
has been decided. Oh really, they will be in Norman,
Oklahoma for Oklahoma versus Michigan. Ooh, that's fun. You know what,

(02:11:41):
it's really weird, he said. I'm not used to this
these major matchups.

Speaker 4 (02:11:45):
Now.

Speaker 1 (02:11:45):
We've had some pretty good opening week games, but usually
like the neutral site games in Atlanta or something like that,
are in Dallas. To have Texas playing Ohio State in
week one in Colombia, that's stout. Yeah, I'd rather they
do it in week two, honestly, So you'd rather than
play like a San Jose State or next week?

Speaker 2 (02:12:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:12:02):
Yeah, who you tap? And who's the other terrible one.
Sam Houston wamue. What if Sam Houston's better than you
think it is, They're not gonna be better at Ohio State.
That's true, all right, So we got a couple of
minutes here. Forget the non Florida stories.

Speaker 2 (02:12:14):
Uh do you?

Speaker 6 (02:12:15):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (02:12:16):
How does this play out.

Speaker 2 (02:12:19):
Go ahead?

Speaker 1 (02:12:20):
I mean if it's Look, if you if your squad loses,
it's okay. You're still going to the playoff. You're still
got a legitimate chance to win the national championship. So
life will not end if you lose. And I won't
even really rag you that hard. I mean I'll have
other people do it for where you'll laugh. Oh okay,
I'll laugh. Especially the games will blowout. Yeah, by the way,
I think Texas wins the game. I think, I mean,
does it? Is it oversimplified to to say that I

(02:12:40):
trust Arch Manning more than a red shirt freshman and
Julian sand for Ohio State. I mean both of them
have really good players. Obviously, Jeremiah Smith for Ohio State
is going to be very difficult to stop. They did
a good job of bottling them up in the playoff.
They have a good secondary, but you can't expect that
to happen, you know, in week one at home as
he's gotten older and had an offseason to build and

(02:13:01):
grow and get stronger. I asked Craig Away, I said,
is a receiving corps A concern with Golden gone is
not at all? Well, you got Ryan Wingo, you got
some other guys, there's some there's some good receivers out there.
Obviously you did lose a lot with with Matthew Golden.
Shout out to the University of Houston for being Texas's
farm system. But I think you get CJ. Baxter back.

(02:13:24):
Trey Wiser isn't a great running back, but CJ. Baxter
was supposed to be the real deal and then he
had a big, bad injury last year. So I wonder
how that's gonna get split. And then the good thing
that is, if arch Manning is having some issues and
this offensive line with a lot of turnover, he can
use his legs.

Speaker 2 (02:13:39):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (02:13:39):
So I feel like I I do think Texas is
gonna win the game, but who knows? And I here's
the thing is I I think the hype is there.
I think the hypees for the right reason. I think
I think Arch Manning was has been talked about for years.
You didn't see a whole lot of it because Quinn
Hubris was taking his spot.

Speaker 21 (02:13:59):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:13:59):
But everything that anybody I trust when they go to
these practices and watch these things, and Craig, you know,
Craig's not I mean, he's gonna be positive about the quarterback,
but he's not gonna over the shirt code. He looks
the part. He was built for this. I just the
issue was not that I had many issues with him
last year, but he would always go for the wow play.

(02:14:20):
And when he made the wold play, it was great.
He had great yards per completion, yards per a tent,
those were huge numbers. But also sometimes he would overthrow guys,
he would throw interceptions. So but he's taken all the
snaps and exactly Cam, if he can be more mature
and take the snaps than take what the defense is
giving him more often than yeah, he's gonna be a
lot better. So we'll see. I don't know. I think

(02:14:41):
he is gonna be really good, and I think he's
gonna be good enough to win this game. I think
it's gonna be, you know, close, like thirty twenty seven
is Texas. I think that's actually too high of a score.
I'm in just being a little lower. I don't know
what the total is, but if I mean I could
see it, I mean, no, I'm gonna I'm gonna go low.
I'm gonna say probably six, and so it is a
lotwer total. Yeah, I could see it being twenty four

(02:15:03):
seventeen something like that, But I think Texas wins. I'm
with you, thirty to twenty seven Texas long one. Smart
people have said this is the best team that Texas
has had three field goals. Actually, I'm gonna change it
twenty eight to twenty four. So you're saying higher than
the number you're taking the over Yeah, okayre why not?
All right, let's get some non Florida stories. And if

(02:15:25):
you're new to the show, there's a segment we do
every Friday in the program usually where you actually have
to tell us. We actually tell you stories that happened
outside of the state of Florida. The crazy, easy, easy,
low hanging fruit stories that right cast state in Florida,
but we go outside of the state, we go elsewhere,
And if you would like to listen to those stories,
we'll got one for you next. Actually, we got three

(02:15:46):
of them for you next plus hell, you're not all
things about Lee Corso. Here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

crazy world, there's nowhere. So last week we had any
nunya as in studio, we didn't do non Florida stories. ROSSI,

You did No, I didn't do that, all right? Story
number one? Okay. Cleo Williams Junior of Levenworth Jesus William
Jor unfortunately was found guilty after putting no pleading no
contest to a charge of sexual battery. Oh god, yeah,
this happened after a December the fourteenth incident at a
Levenworth apartment complex after police responded to a domestic disserbance.

(02:17:38):
That's not that's not the part of It's a sad
part of it, but it's the story. While the officers
were arresting mister Williams, he kissed an officer's neck, leading
me the charge of sexual battery. Levenworth Counting Attorney Todd
Thompson says the following. Our officers work hard, and we

(02:18:00):
respect and appreciate the services they provide. However, ross any
form of inappropriate physical contact, including kissing, is unacceptable. Sentencing
a schedule on September the twenty fifth in the Leavenworth
County District Court. If A, have you ever been arrested?
And be if you ever tried to neck with the
person arresting you? No, I have never been arrested. Actually,
all right, that's me. It makes two of us. I know,

(02:18:22):
I know you're shocked to hear that. Yeah, and Jonathan,
you've been arrested. Never Okay, But if you were to
get arrested in the girl, would you try to neck
with her? Would you try to make out with her?
Kiss her? Neck whisper some sweet nothing's into her ear like,

Speaker 2 (02:18:45):
Oh you do not to do one?

Speaker 1 (02:18:46):
Yeah, you do one. Okay, Matt. Let me take you
to a place called, of course, a United Kingdom, also
known as Great Britain, where as you know, Matt has
happened here in Texas and other states, there has been
an age verification system. If you want to browse pornography sites.
Where's this again?

Speaker 2 (02:19:08):
This is in Britain.

Speaker 1 (02:19:08):
Oh shoo, I know you've had some issues, Matt. Not issues,
just just clearances. That's fine, Like Nevada and California much
more liberal to it than say Texas. Yes, well, there
are many restrictions in the United Kingdom as well, where unfortunately,
there is a man having issue getting his age verification

(02:19:32):
in Great Britain. His name is King of ink Land,
King of Body the Art Extreme Inkite. Excuse me what,
that's his entire name, that's his entire legal name. He
is the most tattooed man in Great Britain, with over
ninety percent of his body covered in tattoos, including his

(02:19:54):
entire face. He's disgusting. Unfortunately, when he tries to get
his age verified so he can do his thing, it
tells him that he's wearing a mask so he cannot
access pornograe pornography sites in Great Britain. This man's liberties

(02:20:17):
are being taken away. The struggle is real. The struggle
is real, he said. Quote it says remove your mask
because the technology has made so you can't hold up
a picture to the camera or wear a mask. It's
not like I can do the old John travolt to
face off and change it when I want to. It's
my skin, it's my permanent identity. So when he's looking

(02:20:38):
for real pleasure red tube, what do they call it
over there? Wank tube? Wank tube? Oh you porn I
don't know anymore. I really don't braziers, you do you?
He's got issues over there. He's having some issues on

(02:20:58):
Apparently there are real problems with the UK's verification system.
Facial recognition technology contains biases. Study is found they have
higher err rates for people of color and other issues,
leading to inaccurate results. And this man's issue as well
with his age verifications in person and I'm hoping that

(02:21:20):
he gets it resolved as soon as possible. He's just
trying to end his Thursday night on a high note
and he just can't do it. You have to go
get a magazine, I guess. And that's Ross's non for
a story that poor guy. No, it's not poor guy.
He's tatted himself up, by the way. You know, I

(02:21:40):
went to Vegas. What he's tatted himself up so he
can't have a good time?

Speaker 6 (02:21:45):
You know.

Speaker 1 (02:21:45):
I went to Vegas in June for you go see
Berry Mantel, of course, one of the goats. And I
would say forty percent of the girls I saw in
Vegas were full sleeved? Is that is that very much
more popular these days? I would say it's crazy? How
I mean, I'm talking to full sleeve, shoulder blades, the
whole thing, not like a little rose on the ankle or.

Speaker 2 (02:22:05):
Something like that.

Speaker 1 (02:22:06):
You were off strip, that's classic, Yeah, I was downtown
and maybe it's required by state law to have the
full sleep there. Just does a strip have full sleeve?
I don't think so. Some you find it. You can
find whatever you want Vegas, and you want in Vegas. Jonan,
what is your non Florida story. I'm not beating that one.
But excuse me?

Speaker 3 (02:22:27):
What here?

Speaker 1 (02:22:28):
What did you just say?

Speaker 3 (02:22:29):
No?

Speaker 1 (02:22:29):
Neither is he. He's not being that one either. Non
Florida stories as Turkish excuse me. Authorities are searching for
a foreign tourist who offended the nation's morale values way
more when she performed a pull dance on a Turkish flagpole.

(02:22:52):
Oh no, yeah, AFP reported on August twenty first, the
case was opened at their twelve second video was posted
to social showing a woman wearing leggings and a T
shirt while dancing. Governor's office is closely monitoring this heinous incident.
The offences carried jail terms of at least two years.

(02:23:14):
Oh my gosh, I see that she can get up
to five years in jail. She's just like hanging off
of the pole, that's it. And leggings and a T shirt. Yeah,
she's just wearing T shirts and regular leggings. You find
nothing wrong with this? Oh, I don't find this offensive
at all. You're encouraged by it. That's very encouraging. So

(02:23:37):
I was the end result of this whole thing. They're
looking for her, looking for Oh my gosh, she's just
doing a little pole dance. She's flexible, she's bendy, she's spry.
WHOA wow, I didn't realize they can do that to

(02:23:57):
that thing. Excuse me, all right, last story, Thank you
very much for that flag raising story. Flags story Vernon,
Connecticut WKRC television telling US emergency responders were called in
an elementary school on Saturday, ROSSI and John, why for

(02:24:18):

the hot temperatures. Ventilation was set up to help cool
the space where he was trapped. One group deployed tools
for the extraction, while another used its aerial ladder to
stabilize the section of the slide being removed to reach
the man. The rescue operations successfully freed the man within
thirty minutes after being evaluated on the scene by EMS.

(02:25:07):
The man refused for the treatment and transport to a
local emergency room. Forty year old man in a tube
slide Walk me through that, gentlemen, Does he have to
pay the bill for that? Like? Or is that just
that is a waste of taxpayer dollars? Correct? Yeah? How many?
