Speaker 1 (00:00):

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Tell two.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
It ain't sound good morning. We got a Rockets game.
I don't even know what they're doing anymore. What am
I be able to do with myself the last three days?
It's about Thomas Show? Ross Hi, Ross, Relax.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
Yes, I'm actually spending time with my family because I
leave Sunday and we'll be back till after Christmas.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
So you guys, did you do an early Christmas?

Speaker 4 (00:38):
No, we're going to do a late Christmas and we're
going to be on a zoom in a zoom but
like a video call on Christmas Day.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
You're going a FaceTime Christmas. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
From the arena. No, I mean I've be in my
hotel room from the crypto. Is it silver Crypto? They
don't spend money, so it's the rypto. Okay, it's what
the arena is cold. I mean, it's where they're playing.
They're not paying me to say it. No, they're not
paying you to say it. No, I just say from
Los Angeles. Okay, Actually that's not true because every NBA

(01:08):
arena's got a sponsorship.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Dave to it exactly. We were kids. Toyota Center. I do.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
But the toa center is part of the Rockets. No,
it's I get paid by the Rockets. So there it is,
all right?

Speaker 2 (01:20):
You say TDCU Stadium, so ross, how are you? I'm great? Uh,
it's NRG Stadium. M that's true. You know what Dike
and Park you say? I do say Diken Park. You
know what? You're right.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
If it's the stadium name, I can do it, okay.
If it's beyond that, I'm going to stay.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
A good rhyme at whatever. It's part of the fun.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
When we were kids, it was awesome.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
It was Veteran Stadium, Stadium, Memorial Stadium, Memorial Stadium, the Spectrum,
the Summit, the Omni.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
The Summit.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
I mean, you talk about a hallaciously awesome name at
the Summit.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Where is it? Sounds good?

Speaker 4 (01:56):
We're in the Omni Reunion arenas even actually have right hemisphere.
I mean I wonder who is ultimately Like I remember
the first stadium sponsorship. I think I know what it is, okay,
and it actually comes off of a TV show. I
believe it was the Fabulous Form in Englewood got named
the Great Western Form, which is a bank out in California.

(02:16):
I don't if they're still around with them. But the
Great used to be it was called the Great Western Form.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Okay, I'm trying to think what other stadiums had names
that would be something?

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Uh yeah, what's something I don't know I haven't thought about.
You know, when I'm on a plane that on long
flight from one the country there, I'll be thinking about
what was the first one? But I think I think
it might have been Great Western was the one I
can think of? Okay, Apparently it's been happening since the
eighteen eighties with baseball teams. Really, yes, I'm unfamiliar with
the eighteen eighties corporate sponsorship tags.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Bush Stadium was a big one, that's right, But it wasn't.
But wasn't the Cardinals own by the Bush family though
it says the Oilers and Compact struck a deal in
eighty four. What was that the Compact astronome?

Speaker 6 (03:02):
Mmm?

Speaker 4 (03:04):
No, it was Arco Arena in Sacramento and early one. Yeah,
but that but the Freight West Renformist before that. I
think it's ai they can get stuff.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
But would you see congratulations Time Man of the Year
this year. Did you see that was announced earlier today?

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Time Man of the Year Donald Trump not a human being,
the creators of AI. Oh no, they're the anti man
of the year that is ruining us.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
That's what they called it, this AI slop.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
Yeah, people like Matt Thomas watching these fake Bob Barker videos.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
No they're not. It's no, no, you gotta stop.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
The fake Bob Barker videos are rude, insensitive, racist. Uh,
it's just low hanging, low hanging. It's the lowest of
hanging fruit. You should be embarrassing. And yet people send
them to me, and I send them back to other
people because I keep I have people sell them to
me all over Instagram.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah, it's a it's a character flaw of mine. And
that's fine. Speaking of character flaws, see.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
Michigan football has got an opening, Yes they do, Sharon Moore. Okay,
so let's there is a lot of conjecture out there. Yes,
a boers are about about why, who? How many then
the subsequent arrest mm hmm, about whether it was involving

(04:39):
the girlfriend, Well, you know, the girlfriend, the acquaintance or
the wife. I mean there's still a lot. So and look,
you can take you three seconds to go to the
World Wide Web and get the information, So we don't
need to disseminate what's accurate, what's not. All I want
to say is it is a hot, hot mess. Sharon

(04:59):
Moore thirty one, thirty eight years old. I want to say, married,
three kids, coaching a spectacular college football program, one of
the top ten of the country year and in year out,
Gonna play Texas in the Citrus Bowl, which will carry
right here on seven to ninety. He goes from that
to out of work and in jail in a sub

(05:22):
in about a twenty four hour time span. That if
inve that long, Oh you gonna well, you made the
Citrus Bowl and you lost to a house state.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Uh, this affair. Look in this guys, we found the affair. Well.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
Actually, it's funny. Part of the conjecture out there is
that Michigan knew about this for a long period of
time and not devastated that the news got out. Is
that fair with Michigan?

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Notts devastating, Michigan, not devastated down because they can fire
him with cause they don't have to pay a buyout. Yeah,
almost six million dollars a year in Sourary. I've never
heard of this guy, John Bacon. He's got seventy thousand followers. Okay,
and he looks like a writer.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
But yeah, he's saying like he was detained and being
protected by mental health professionals.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yes there is.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
There was numerous reports that he would contemplate suicide, he
was gonna harm others and also harm himself, which is
she's the reality is this, it's a it's a you're
a it's a football gig. Relax, Well, it's nothing to
do football. It's about getting caught and in an inappropriate
relationship and losing his job over it. And then I'm

(06:30):
sure the wife and three kids, you know, like you'll
never see down. So again we're leaving the consequences of
my actions. You know, this is horrible. Yeah, yeah, so
an ugly sad scene for frankly a lot of people.
And no one's gonna feel sorry for Sharon, No, I

(06:53):
mean not right now.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
No, you don't want anybody threatening to kill herself. I mean, that's.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Bad as bad as what is being alleged. It's not
worth taking, first of nothing, worth taking your own life. Okay,
that's first and foremost.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
So, yeah, he he made some serious judgment issue problems, and.

Speaker 4 (07:14):
But yeah, I'm just reading more from this. John Bacon guy.
Apparently there was. They interviewed he and the employee in
the summer and they both said no, nothing going on. So,
like I said that, there are again these these wol
stories are popping up. Is in basically saying that Michigan
knew more about this, or at least wasn't. This was
nothing that just popped up all of a sudden, yesterday
knew about it. They said there wasn't anything, and then

(07:35):
they moved on. Yeah, but apparently this girl had gotten
a raise a significant race. There's also reports of rumors
of that.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
This is it. Oh, I want to read I want
to read the book on this one.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
You probably do want to read the book because it
is selatious, because that's what we do, is society. We
like selatious stups, we do. But I think we need
to wait till everything comes out. Fine, I know, I know,
we'll wait till the facts are out. And these are
all rumors, folks. It's all difficult to do that, but
sometimes we have to let the facts get out there.
But again, sorry to his wife and his children and
obviously the young lady, you know whatever, Okay, on much

(08:14):
more positive things, all right, See now I already got
people sending me Bob Barker once. Stop let me me
a I Bob Barker.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Send them to Matt.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Do not send at Sports RV on Instagram or Twitter
Bob Barker stuff.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
Send it to at sports MT he loves it. Don't
send it to Sports RV. He will look at it
in disgust. But he'll look at it. I'm not actually,
I'm not looking at this one. I already it's not
really Bob Barker. May he rest in peace. Bob wouldn't
act and talk that way now. He's had his own
issues in the past.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
S Yeah, how many lawsuits? Was it three?

Speaker 4 (08:47):
Probably at least I think each one of the Barker beauties. Okay,
it it was funny. I told this to my wife
yesterday and she laughed when I said this. We had
on in We've got two televisions in our room that
well sometimes work more times than There's some technical glitches
to him, but you know, one one is.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
What's going on. They're working. They don't work.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
No, I'm talking about in here oh in here place? Yeah,
oh no, these work. They're not always programmed properly.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
The TV always works, Okay, bottoms that always plays can't
get to the story here. Yeah, bottom line is this
the but it was the price is huh nothing good?
The price is right.

Speaker 4 (09:21):
Barker Error show was on and you saw Bob Barker
and you'd said I had never seen him in black
cairbra I.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Never was brownish.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Yeah, well yeah, I've never seen him with anything but
gray hair in my life.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
He did. He he used shoe polish for a lot
of years. Oh they did. He sponsor it on the show. So,
because I'm a dork, I know.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
So one day he's doing the show and like in
the middle of the week, you know they take multiple shows,
you start sweating.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
So apparently it was running down.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
His u his suit and in the middle of a taping,
not middle of the little show, but in the middle
of like you know, you take five episodes a day.
So after the second episode he went and got rid
of it and said, all right, here I go. And
so he came out for a third recording and people like,
what happened to your hair?

Speaker 6 (10:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Oh god?

Speaker 4 (10:47):

little nervous yesterday.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
Are you okay? Wow?

Speaker 4 (11:02):
They covered the forty and a half. Oh they did
eighty to thirty eight was a final score.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
I didn't know. I didn't check the game. I didn't

lines on that like like, are you sure you want

little bit. We got a little special feeling for those
ten o'clockers. Yeah, I lad his videos low one likes

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Okay, the show today, Will Well, I think I'm in
vacation about I'm sorry, Matt, Yeah, I know, I've I've
kind of noticed that in this entire week.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Fran drink my coffee. I'm drink my coffee. I'm ana
shut up, all right, hey, Steven one three two one
two five seven. And if you want to join our
conversation today, that's seven one three two one two five
seven ninety. If you want to visit with us through
Instagram or Twitter, it's at Sports MT On the show,
I just don't get it at eleven thirty nine, and
I'm gonna irritate actually a handful of my friends. And

(12:13):
it involves disney World and Disneyland. So we'll tell you
about that. We have the Rockets getting an action TIGN
against the Los Angeles Clippers. ROSSI, are you surprised, disappointed,
elated or a combination of both about the astros largely
being very silent at the winter meetings. And it doesn't
mean things can't pop up in the next twenty four

(12:35):
or forty eight hours, for sure, but it was a
very silent at winter meetings. Now you can gather your
intel in Orlando, come back to Houston and pull off
the deal because phones do work and texts and whatnot
and zooms. But it was a very very very quiet
overall meeting. We'll get to that, and well, I got
a good feeling. I know it's Thursday.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
You can do it. I got a good feeling. Save
it when we come back. All right. Oh, I'm so.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Happy the Rockets are playing tonight. I miss him. They
missed me too.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Don't have to get really crazy that with the schedule
coming up, with the long road trip after this couple
of home game, actually just one home game.

Speaker 4 (13:15):
The Los Angeles Clippers are in town. I wonder, I mean,
anybody seem James around town? I mean he probably been
here four or five days now. He's making the rounds.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah, Kawhi Leonard probably resting comfortably. He should be ready
to go. He vins the zubats. Is he getting wheeled around?
He is tapioca pudding? Oh my god, his legs are
about eighty. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:37):
I wonder if Kawhi would have stayed in San Antonio.
He's only thirty four. Yeah, his legs are about eighty. Yeah,
he's got out the rightis. As Fredie Sanfer once used
to say, Uh okay, if we got rockets going on
the night, we get the COO mentioned the cougar's destroying
people yesterday and we have ROSSI a post gut feeling,
gut feeling from you. Yes, two Astros trades. May I

(14:03):
guess who they are? At least two go ahead? I believe.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
And I don't know if because I was listening to
Brian mctagger coming in maybe swimming, William mctaggard. Who was he?

Speaker 4 (14:15):
He was on he was on the morning show. Oh okay,
I didn't catch it. Uh, oh for sure?

Speaker 2 (14:27):
Are boys leaving Jake Myers. Here's the thing. If if
he's traded while you're off next week, I'll be fine.
Can you call him at least for one secon? Why
would I call in? Because that that's your that's your bit.
I'm gonna be on vacation, be thinking about it. You
cannot literally call him for once. I'm gonna say you're goodbyes. Oh,
we'll see if I'm busy, it depends. I'm gonna take
it down. You're a terrible texture, so you probably take

(14:49):
you two days to get back plans. Yeah, but ten
to two asking for a whole. It depends. I might
be at the movies or at a I don't know,
on a hike. Who goes to eleven thirty. They don't
hike in Dallas.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
I'm one on it. I'm going to two o'clock movie.
Oh you'll be off. Yeah, I gotta get there early though.
Each pop corn pop corn? Okay, Jake Myers traded. You
know what, if you don't want to do it, we'll
do our own. Parauel to Jake Myers, you got it.
You want to record one just in case? Did we
have we done this hip?

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Jonathan?

Speaker 7 (15:16):
We did?

Speaker 2 (15:17):
Uh? We didn't. We do a Fromber one.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
We did a Frommer one in case I'm gone. No, No,
We're gonna have to do what we gotta do it,
Jake Myers.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
Well, we'll do it. I have a Frommer one somewhere.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
Okay, we'll do the one at the bottom. We did
one for Bregnant. Is this because I go on vacation
every year? Yeah, which is really a dumb thing on
your parking area, because the good stuff is good when
you're here, damn good.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
You should take some time off in July.

Speaker 4 (15:37):
It kind of I mean, I normally have some leftover,
and I like to be off for my birthday. Even
though you think I think it's wrong, I just have
never done that that way. Okay, so number one and
I got another one for you. I'm guessing with this
and you tell me for wrong. Okay, I think each
prati is getting traded.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Oo ooh, that's spicy. That could be right, Christian Waller.

Speaker 4 (16:01):
Now it's it's no coincidence that the players that are
most wanted by others are also most wanted by you.
So you would love to trade Christian Walker. That would
be your top candidate, but also he's least attractive to
other teams old guy at a down season. Second most
attractive would be Estoc Paradis. That would be kind of

(16:22):
the happy medium because Jeremy Paine is probably not going anywhere,
Carls Cray not going anywhere.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
Well, nobody's gonna want Jose two Va. I'm sorry at
that money unless you send a bunch of cash. And
he's not gonna go anywhere because he's the most beloved
greatest aster of all time. He's not the greatest astro player,
but he's the most Belovedasher of all time. So I
I mean you're not crazy to say that. Man.

Speaker 4 (16:42):
My gut feeling is multiple trades they'ven't been involved in, uh.
I mean their their names have popped up for Freddy Peralta,
for other pitchers as well. Their names have popped up
with Jake Myers. Estock Paradis to the Red Sox has
popped up from Ken Rosenthal. Multiple astros trades are coming.
That's my gut feeling. So you don't want to say
who un Jake Myers for sure. I think Esak Paratus

(17:04):
is in the mix. Christian Walker's in the mix if
you send a lot of money. I mean he does
have some value. He had a good second half of
the season. If somebody's desperate for a for a first baseman,
I'm going to look the numbers up.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
But he ended up with twenty seven home runs. We
do have a from berw one actually, okay, good yeah,
let's play the real quickly when that happens here it is,
here's fromer goodbye, Oh proper you sweet sweet left handed pitchers.

(17:38):
They called you and we'll never forget you as a
Houston astro. Great as you came up and we called
it frambur alerts because you would walk everyone and blow
up when you came out on the mound. But you
right this ship and the blow up stopped to an extent.

(18:00):
I'm sick, and we'll always remember how you finished top
five in the cy Young couple of times, how you
would just randomly show up with hair extensions whenever you wanted.
Sometimes you'd give up three home runs in an inning
and you.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
Would get this weird, sinister smile on your face, like
your Heath Ledger playing the Joker, go ahead of del.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
You were definitely sick that day. It's fine, it still worked.
We got a hold in the minute. You're going to
keep going. We get more of this geez.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
So all right, so we cannot use a Dell at
ten thirty here coming up. We gotta do something different.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
Okay, Thay, what song do you want to go with?
I don't know. It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.
This is good too, I mean it does hit make
with tear up. I gave you tickets to see a
Dell in hold on and taking deep breaths. Oh my god,
there's still more fitive butcher jobs, but a wicked curveball

(19:07):
and gronb all outs. We wish you the best. We
love you, we appreciate you. We're sorry that the Astros
offer wasn't competitive, We're sorry that Dana Brown strung along
the media, and we're wishing you all the best with
team in the future. Oh we left a blank gone
but not forgotten. Wishing you the best in your future endeavors.

Speaker 4 (19:31):
Okay, so we had we have to do down two things.
We have to You're gonna have to run through all
the potential teams that Fromber could play for.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
Say every single team. Well, I mean there's just fill
in the blank.

Speaker 4 (19:44):
No, you go one three two one, Orioles three two one,
Mets three two one, Yankees three two one, Giant.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
I mean we'll knock out four or five of those.
I'm good now.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
Jake Myers maybe a little different. They made maybe twenty
nine teams of maybe going after you would make a
trade with the Rangers, would you probably not? Well, the
a's so that you could probably do knock out all
the American League wiest James Myers.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
Kind of does have a's written all over them. But
oh geez, don't put that stain on him like that.
Are you doing?

Speaker 4 (20:12):
They're trying well, they've been spending a little bit money
they're getting ready to spend when they come to Vegas.
Does an Oakland fan feeling like that feeling is when
we start talking about the future of the Las Vegas as,
we're still gonna be talking about team that spends a
lot of money. You just you just don't all of
a sudden become a team that's miserly to oh, we're
so cash flush now mm hmm. Because again, they're going

(20:33):
to a different media market, new television deal. Their stadium
only is going to Sea thirty thousand, So you're gonna
be missing out on against stadiums that sell forty to
forty five thousand, right, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
I mean, they're gonna be.

Speaker 4 (20:46):
They'll be more competitive, more sponsorship dollars in theory, but
Vegas ain't what it once was.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
No Vegas is it's dying in it.

Speaker 4 (20:55):
Well, the kids aren't gambling, and it's their fault, the kids.
Jonathan Allen's age, I mean, I don't know how he feels,
but when we were twenty one, it was like the
you go to Vegas?

Speaker 2 (21:04):
Is that still a thing?

Speaker 3 (21:04):
Jonathan?

Speaker 2 (21:05):
You see a couple people do it, but like it's
not as big it was like everybody wanted to go to.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
I'm not gonna. Don't think I'm gonna gamble when you
go to what now DM, the Daisy Festival. You're not
saying that correctly, I know, but it sounds like I am. No,
it doesn't.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
That's fine.

Speaker 4 (21:22):
They're playing d M Okay, what is it? Me and
Craig are gonna go to the Daisy Festival. Isn't it
like the Daisy Lane Carnival or something. We're going and
Electric Daisy Carnival and we probably aren't gonna gamble.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
You're gonna gamble. Shut your mouth. You're right all right.

Speaker 4 (21:38):
Up next, Ross says goodbye to Jake Myers, just in
case it happens you Electric Daisy car close. I said,
that was EDM E DC same thing. You got thirty
three percent of it wrong, still passing.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
It's not.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Hu hey. I graduated in college with the D minus
in that one class. Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (21:57):
Jerk professor. He didn't appreciate my Stevie wonder rundown of
the music of the early seventies. For him, I did
like a music interpretation of his songs.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Oh really? And he gave me an f and he
said come back and do a better job. So I thought.
I read the paper and he gave me a D minus.

Speaker 8 (22:14):
A guy.

Speaker 4 (22:15):
Wow, Yeah, he used to wear these short short in
this professor that were above his knees. And then you
put xlax in his coffee. Oh damn, straight I did.
I said, Man, I'm gonna make seven times did you
make in my career. I'm going to live my broadcasting
life to make more money, mean more popular than you are.
You've been driven by Spike this whole time. I live
for ten to two. I'm Spie Radio ten thirty one.

(22:36):
Ross says goodbye to Jake Myers next year on seven Nighty.
All right, we've got a busy show today, have we got?
I just don't get it at eleven thirty, which is
going to anger some friends of mine. I'm gonna personally
not mention them by name because I love the people
that I'm going to a slightly attack. They're all dear friends.

president of the Jake Myers fantlom here it comes. I'm
staying out of the way. I present to you Ross's
pre recorded farewell to one.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Crazy mys Jack Jake, good day. Tell you my sweet

(25:14):
sweet Jacob. We'll never forget you, never forget you. When
you first came up, you were showing that quick bat,
five star catches, great reads on fly balls. You made
the hard catches look easy, and then you ripped your

(25:39):
shoulder out of it sucket running into the wall like
a madman, and then James Click rushed you back, and
they said you weren't good enough, Jake, because you started
soft hitting and you couldn't even hit your weight and
you were whiffing on everything and rolling over ground balls
to short and third, which you still kind of did

(26:00):
even throughout your career, and that's okay. And they doubted you.
They said Chess McCormick was better than you. But they
were wrong, Jake, because I believed in you, and you
believed in you, and the five star catches kept coming
and you kept calling off every outfielder so you could
get your metrics uff and Kyle Tucker would get annoyed

(26:22):
with you, but that was okay because you're a great
out there and you prove the doubters wrong. And you
got your ops plus over one hundred, which is Leake average,
but hey, that's pretty good for you. And sure, your
helmet flew off every time you swung a bat, every
time you walked on the basis, and really, like in
the on deck circle, your bat your helmet of fly

(26:43):
office quite bizarre. But we still loved you and your
beautiful flowing hair and your flat Nebraska accent. We love you, Jake.
You're so sweet and you're so great, and you're so amazing,
and you're a Gold Club finalist but a winner. In

(27:05):
my heart, I can I miss you, Jack, I love you.
Good luck it They're gonna love you. There taking a
dell so wish nothing I would like to add. Career ops.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
Slug eat seventy eight in my heart, Cara slug three
seventy one. Career ops of ninety and one hundred is
considered average. The views expressed by me are stat driven

(27:54):
and not editorialized. And granted, his arm was a noodle,
and when he would throw a ball.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
From the average, when he would percentile.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
When he would throw a ball from center field to
second base, it would take three bounces.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
Two ninety two average, seven twenty seven ops, three home runs,
but a lot of hits and a lot of five
star catches.

Speaker 4 (28:22):
Perhaps the greatest slide hitter in n Astro's history out
named Casey Kandell. Look at his us R, look at
his d R s. Nobody knows what you're embarrassing yourself.
You apologize you wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Use the R on the show. Point four w a R.
We are not sucket, We are anti w R.

Speaker 9 (28:40):
We are.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
General manager and baba.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
Every general manager in baseball is using those.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
But I'm not a general manager. You're heading the same
Jake has value.

Speaker 4 (28:50):
And by the way, Andy Reid, you never should have
gone for it on fourth down. I was right in
America believes me.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
I don't care. Momentum shifted.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Be wrong.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
I could be right, Yeah I can. I'm definitely running this.
I'm about something, but I was right about say and
that's okay. I got I got proof of momentum of
the game. Change the game, the game change.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
Don't go for fourth and one to thirty one yard line.
Don't hit on sixteen, don't hit on sixteen.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
I'm my bust.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
I'm scared. I'm not gonna go for this hit. I
hit sixteen. I hit sixteen against the seven. You so scared,
I tell you as I'm scared. I am my greatest
blackjack player ever.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
No, you're not.

Speaker 9 (29:26):
I am.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
I got blue hairs of lake. Charles screwed me over
hit on fourteen's against four. Shut your bubs up, good God,
go to break ten forty three. The Matt Thomas showed raw.
So the word for Big City Wings Tey ain't in
the radio show the Marketplace. I'll give you that right there.

Speaker 4 (29:43):
We went from Jake Myers farewell to Ops Plus to
Wabba to Andy Reids screwing his team to my blackjack playing,
which is the greatest ever.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
You want to you know what?

Speaker 4 (29:54):
Not am I mister Texas, but I'm mister Blackjack. You
stepped out. I lost myself a new nickname, mister Blackjack. Yeah,
mister Texas.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Check Texans insider check, good God, great father and husband
check check.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
You know when you give your stuff like dad, that's
no you you haven't earned it. I've never seen anybody
at the table go the handsome ball man made a
bad move on the table. Matter of fact, if I
even played some things wrong before. Uh, twos and threes
get confused. They do, but I do ask. I'm not
afraid to ask. Those people are like, oh, there was
some need to make a mistake, But I'm that was

(30:33):
years ago. I am a last time we were in Charles.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
No, this was not no you did you play?

Speaker 7 (30:38):
You did?

Speaker 2 (30:39):
You admitted it.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
It was like a two or three. But I mean, look,
twos and threes are very confusing. I feel like the
twos and threes were losing anyway. Just we're just slow
playing with it. We're all losing anyways.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
That's true. All right.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
Uh, let's see what else we got. Ten o'clocker's good
morning to you, Hi. If you like to join us,
we gotta again. I just don't get it coming up
at eleven thirty today, Uh, the news at noon and
five some tweets.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Oh Jones says Jake is easy on the ice. I don't.

Speaker 4 (31:05):
I think he is handsome enough. Yeah, I mean I
was the one if we would want to be carried.
We want to be truthful here on the show, which
we do believe in. The truth is I was the
one to interviewed Jake in spring training, and I brought
you over because you were a little nervous, because you know,
if it was not nervous, you were fan club, you're
fan going on. I mean, you didn't want to talk
to me. I'd interviewed Jake like five times. Number one
before that number two you you made your equipment bitch,

(31:29):
so I had to get there and set up all
the equipment. That's why I was late to the interview.
I mean, there's some truth to okay, so shut you
my mass up. I would not call you my equipment, bitch.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
Yeah, you would be. You would be the technical supervisor
of the show. Uh huh.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
I got a hotel reserve. By the way, we're gonna
actually stay in a hotel with two beds it this
time around.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
I'll pack everything up.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
Get on your phone, Matt seven one three two one
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two
five seven. That's the best show of the city, not
even close by the way. I mean, come on, I
hate listening to a lot of shows in this market.
They're boring, uninteresting. They repeat the same things over and
over again. You're gonna get literally something different every day
on this show. Now, it may not be your complete

(32:14):
cup of tea. And I get that. We're also very humble, yes, immodest.
We realize they are strict in our weaknesses, and if
you find a weakness, we'll let you go.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
H okay real. Jacob Berkshaw Myers, also known as Jake
the Rake. That's his official baseball reference nickname, Jake the Rap.
Let's go.

Speaker 4 (32:31):
It was that on the back of his jersey when
it was player this weekend. I don't know they got
rid of that, didn't they. No, they brought it back,
they got rid of it, and then they brought I
think it was back this year, right, But I don't
think they had like the funny nicknames to them. I
thought they did bring them back, right, I kept looking
for me and okay, maybe not all right? So other
things going on. There is a published report out there,
and again I hate saying publish report because I'm going

(32:54):
off for what I saw on the for you tab
oh boy that says that we're around the college athletic streets.
Is a Notre Dame acted like such a baby that
a lot of schools are like, yeah, we're not gonna
hold the freeze out thing.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah saw that? What do you think? Do you think
there's some validity to that? Well, Texas has a home
and home with them coming up. I believe.

Speaker 4 (33:16):
Now, look, we have crushed Notre Dame as this most
people are in the country unless you're Notre Dame grad.
And by the way, I think we've got our second
d of the year candidate Pete Vaqua. I think anybody
involved nunder one uh Rain Riffin.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Oh wow, Gord, he's not gonna like that. He's not
You better not have him in at the end of
the year. I think I'm going to sol uh Yeah,
Texas at Notre Dame twenty eight home for home against
Notre Dame twenty nine. As petul of children as they've acted,

(33:52):
I'd still schedule them because here's what you're gonna do.
You're gonna get eyeballs.

Speaker 4 (33:57):
Yeah, more times than not. You're gonna get a top
twenty two pair of top twenty five matchups. I mean,
Notre Dame just out of his unitin go three names
and they're never really good, but not that good, you
know what I mean. They're winnable.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
Yeah, Aggies think it's winnable, and Miami thinks it's winnable.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
And Notre Dame does travel. So if you're looking to
fill up ten thousand seats or whatever, you can do that.

Speaker 10 (34:15):
No.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
My my school's a big time football school. Not worried
about filling up with a much talking about sixty percent
visiting fans so that they could sell tickets.

Speaker 4 (34:23):
That would be I mean, how embarrassing was that we
didn't have that this year tech we had text Tech.
It was full of Houston fans. So shut up, you're wrong,
I'm talking about other schools. Yeah, Okay, you don't think
SMU would take Notre Dame in a heartbeat.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
I absolutely they would. Why would Notre Dame want to
play SMU?

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Oh they want an easy dub By the way, somebody
was asking me that on Twitter SMU Southern Millionaires University.
Why haven't they gotten their money up in IOL? They
did a couple of years ago. Ah, but you can't
live off of what you did two years ago. I
thing was just saying they got some donor fatigue and
that I can't tell you. I'm not intimate at the situation,

(34:59):
but I can I tell you this. If Cody Campbell,
the big money behind Texas Tech, got fatigue, they're toast.
Now there are other people helping, but he's He not
only carries it with his wallet, but he carries it
with his mouth. He is absolutely pushing and getting in
front of high priced, big time donors at Texas TAK.

(35:24):
I mean, he knows people. He's been around that program
as a player as a student. So if Cody Campbell
got out, they'd be screwed. So it really comes down
to how long these schools have these powerful, influential people
that are willing to carry the weight for not only
contributing but pushing to get their buddies involved. I mean,

(35:48):
University of Houston. Tell me Fertita wrote a check to
the University Houston for fifty million dollars in staid, go
build the Fertida Center.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
And he says, look, that's what I can do for you.
And he's like, I need others to step up. And
that's what they've tried to do.

Speaker 4 (36:00):
They try to get other people involved that how successful
they are on that, I don't know. I mean, clearly
we're we got a five star recruit coming in. It's
a number one dual threat quarterback in the country. He
ain't coming because you know, it's a sweet place to
hang out. I mean, couper's a check's coming his way
in this coach and.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
This coach too offensive, assistantly control assistant what it is
he's here if it's a package deal and take package deals,
not of package deals out there before.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
But yeah, I think you have to keep those people vested.
So SMU had some money. But you're right, SMU should
not have an issue if SME people care about seme.
Like for instance, Rice, Rice is not going to be
in this game because Rice, the people that are the
big money people are on Rice don't.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
Care about athletics. Let's go d Calhoun. Now he probably
sends his money to Texas. Oh that is true. By way,
you see the video does Did you see what the
text video they did yesterday? Yes?

Speaker 4 (36:53):
And that was incredible. I thought it was hilarious. It
was it took an embarrassing situation and made it so
quite interesting. So good, No, it was good. It was funny.
It was it was funny. It was funny. That's gonna say. No,
I mean, I know humor, I mean some extent. It

(37:17):
was funny unless it's AI barbiker videos. I laugh at
Bob Bark. I also laugh at the babies that swear
on those videos too. Exactly. Let me tell you something.
I'm team AI comedy, I fully admitted. I know that's fine.
Call me flawed. I will so Bob is funny?

Speaker 2 (37:34):
So cal did?

Speaker 4 (37:36):
He took an embarrassing, potentially embarrassing situation, which obviously that
was a real video that happened, and he turned into
a way to make some fun. Well the social media team.
I'm sure that wasn't his idea. You want me to
do this again? You want me to put my hand out, Williams,
I have the coat steal it is in my suitcase. No,
they turned and made me fold it. Nice No smart

(37:59):
smart on the social media, very smart, smart on Hannah
Smart anybody that said, hey, there's this video out there,
are you having your hand out?

Speaker 2 (38:05):
Yeah, we should explain, we should we Yeah, go ahead.
He got left hanging by c J.

Speaker 4 (38:09):
Stroud at the end of the city in Kansas City,
and then so they made a video of him still
having his hand up and getting left hanging, and then
at the end of the video, c J. Stroud finally
gives him a high five. It's hilarious. Matter of fact,
I'm gonna go Red Tweeter right now. They leaned into
you got that's what happened. When something embarrassing happens, you
got to lean into it. Maybe don't lean in, don't
lean into putting in allegedly putting him. I mean he

(38:31):
leaned into something already, and that's that's the problem with
Sometimes leaning in gets you into trouble.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Undefeated, He seriously is undefeated. It is, isn't it.

Speaker 4 (38:46):
By the way, real quick, I'm looking at a video
of Philip Rivers. We were talking about the seventeen Jersey. Yes,
he got the blessing from Daniel Jones.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
Well, see I was right.

Speaker 4 (38:53):
Yeah, I didn't say you were wrong. I just was like,
I hope you got no you said I was wrong,
and then you you spit at me.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
It was weird. By the way, he's all so fat.
Look at that.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
He's got a full double fat. He's just a chunky. No,
that's fat. He hits a full fat. Look at his face.
Santa Claus is fat. He just gotta You're so weird.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
Okay, what is he? Then he's plump. He's put on
if he's forty four, he put on a few penalty.
He got caught off the couch in a week. You
want him to be chiseled. He's gonna die on the field.
I don't want this.

Speaker 4 (39:27):
He's coaching high school football. As far as high school
football coaches go, he's on the lean side.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
That's true. Bubba Barbecue sponsor is this week, folks, Good guy, coach,
you get two racks of ribs, coach relax. Mm hmmm, Okay,
so you got a plump quarterback?

Speaker 4 (39:53):
Yeah, old chunky See j Chard's little extra lining who's
the Who's the fattest quarterback in the NFL?

Speaker 2 (39:59):
Lorenzen No, he's dead. Oh too soon? That was really
too soonous.

Speaker 4 (40:06):
Why I'm gonna say the name that popped in my
old Matthew Stafford Jameis Winston. Uh yeah, but he's back up.
He started some. Matthew Stafford's a plumpest quarterback in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
Okay, yeah, he's almost forty two. Give him a minute.
It's all right.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
He's maybe gonna be an MVP. I'm trying to think
most everybody's pretty leaner in shape. I guess, is it
bo Nicks? I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
I mean it's a big boy. I mean he gets
some good fried food out in Auburn. He's a big
young lad. Yeah, he's The Matt Thomas Show with Ross

(40:58):
number two, The Matt tom Show with Ross eleven o
three in the am Here on a sports talk seven
ninety Michigan head coach Charion Moore fired with caused no buyout,
but after the coaching carousel has turned.

Speaker 4 (41:16):
By the way, the interim coach is named Biff Pogy.
That sounds like a line on line or d line
o line coach. He's got gotta be is he for real?
He's got a huge gut, He's he's he's what you think.
Bif Pogy's the online coach for real? Yeah, yeah, okay,
that was gonna say no, no, no, no. I mean
I thought we should judge, but I used to be fat.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Hey, I'm Biff Polgy. Let me see what bif Pogy did.
I'll look at it. Oh, why is he named Biff
Because his name is Francis Xavier. He's sixty six years old. Yes,
he's currently the interim head coach. Uh huh and oh
it's an athletic ad. I gotta pull it up here.
Uh what does he do here? He was an associate

(41:57):
head coach this year. He was the one that coached
Michigan for two games when he was spended associate head coach?
Is that an analyst? I wonder if he was in
a Oh he just came back.

Speaker 11 (42:07):
He was.

Speaker 4 (42:08):
He went to He left Michigan in twenty twenty two
as associate head coach to become a high school football
coach for four seasons. That's a little odd. The whole
situation is odd. By the way, is Michigan ever going
to behave themselves?

Speaker 2 (42:26):
I mean, you got Connor Stallion's hardball leaving with the
infractions on the way, cheating on the field, cheating off
the field. Yep, guy was thirty eight years whiz was
is thirty eight years old. He had a job that
was paying him six million a year to coach one
of the top ten college programs in college football. Undefeated,

(42:52):
not him, but you know Michigan's not undefeated.

Speaker 4 (42:56):
No, So I guess everybody wants to know if mister
de Boord Alabama would like to go take that job.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
What's a better job in your mind? Alabama or Michigan.
Now remember it used to be based off of just results,
but now it's about results and where's the money. Yeah,
I mean I can't answer that question without knowing fullal
financials and all that stuff, because separating anil Alabama is
a better job. There are two college football flagship programs.

(43:28):
I mean, there are two short lists, blue blood all
time programs. So we're splitting hairs at this point. I
would say Alabama just because of I mean, I just
feel like the SEC you just end up with better
recruits on a year in, year out basis than in Michigan.
But let me sell you on Michigan, you're realistically only

(43:51):
competing with Well, now it's a bigger conferencedtion Ohio State,
in Oregon, Penn State, you're not really competing for a
Big ten Penn state, the grease Wisconsin, you're not competing
like us I used to. But they could be a
sleeping job. I'm sorry, I forgot to mention Indiana.

Speaker 11 (44:06):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (44:07):
Table Now Indiana's looking pretty good. I think year after
year you can probably win more in Bama.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
Just got to do the SEC. It's just it's a
more fertile recruiting base. Went in doubt when there are
similar things close to Florida and Texas which are big.
Entrance requirements at Alabama are significantly easier than Michigan. Michigan's
like a hoity toys excellent school. Yeah, yeah, I don't
know how much is interested. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
I mean, does it has it hampered Notre Dame Maybe
a little bit probably over the years, but recently I'm
talking about it since nil Michigan maybe Okay, Well, Michigan's
of course, Michigan's top five Big ten.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
Huh. If you took Michigan through in the SEC, they'd
be top five in that conference. So it's really you know,
you're splitting hairs here. I think for the large part,
I think, so I'll go with Bama. But Calin de
boor the rumors is like he's from Michigan or he
well there was ties a him at Tana day two. Yeah,
east coast guy.

Speaker 4 (45:08):
I I want to say, not that Michigan's east coast,
but he's from Millbank, South Dakota.

Speaker 2 (45:17):
Yeah, I don't know. I he worked at Eastern Michigan. No,
I'm not seeing.

Speaker 4 (45:22):
So let me ask you this forgetting about where you
want to live and where your n als? Where's the
pressure Sharon Moore? Was he nine to three this year
and doing it because that's the best they could do?
Or if he goes nine to three one more year?
Sharon Moore looking for work at Michigan?

Speaker 2 (45:40):
Was he was?

Speaker 4 (45:40):
Was he just a nice standby until they really want
to go after the coach they wanted to?

Speaker 2 (45:45):
I mean? Was again?

Speaker 4 (45:47):
Was Michigan looking for alder an indirect way to get
rid of Sharon? And that all of a sudden this
off the inside the office extra cricket activity.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
Was this an easy gateway from I don't know.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
The Twitter streets are saying this has been around since
the spring, and then I read like I said that
that Michigan reporter. He's got sixty nine thousand followers. You
had him been seventy last hour. I think I I
round it up. Bro, that's good.

Speaker 2 (46:14):
That's good.

Speaker 4 (46:17):
So I don't know if that guy's being accurate. Then
there was interviews in the summer about the improper relationship.
You know, It's funny because a lot of people, if
you've been listening to national stuff, have said, oh, yeah,
this has been a long feared rumor of Sharon Moore,
and I guess apparently he follows quite a few women
on Instagram and have been dam d ming them and

(46:39):
that those women will eventually come out and say yeah, this.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Is yeah part of the course for him.

Speaker 7 (46:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
Absolutely.

Speaker 4 (46:44):
I mean we Matt Thomas knows some rumors. I've heard
some rumors, so like that can happen. So back to
the core of it. We hear things all the time, absolutely,
but we can never in a million years present them
on the radio.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
Right, So.

Speaker 12 (47:00):
Do you go?

Speaker 2 (47:01):
I guess it's more of a philosophical thing. I think
people like to talk, and.

Speaker 4 (47:08):
I would be afraid more than others, and I would
be afraid that there were rumors about anybody that I
would know.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
How do I put this?

Speaker 4 (47:18):
I guess is that does anybody bear responsibility for just saying, well,
I knew this was going to happen anyway.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
I mean it comes across a really little I knew
this was coming.

Speaker 4 (47:28):
Well, if you did, then you should have sent it.
Or are you're not saying when it's an affair? My
name Paul, and this is between y'all. That's exactly right, and.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
We're talking about we're talking about grown adults here. Of course.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
Yes, if there's criminal activity, that's a little different. I
tend to I mean not a little a lot different
when I hear things two consenting adults do your thing
in my life, that's purely my life. Here, I had
a coworker might had an affair many years ago, and
I was completely blown away by hearing about this.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
Okay, I couldn't believe it. I didn't want to believe it. Yeah, well, well, what.

Speaker 4 (48:05):
We're talking about in office stuff though, because this would
be in that would be this was in office.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
The parallel. This was in office.

Speaker 4 (48:11):
And I went to that person and I said, man,
I'm sorry to tell you this, but you and I
are friends, and I got to tell you that there's
a rumor that and he said it's true. Yeah, I said, yes,
we're porking. I don't think he used that term. No, no,
but my jaw you know, the jaw literally dropping. Huh
that it did because I tend not to believe rumors, right,

(48:35):
I find them interesting, but I don't tend to believe them. Okay,
but this sounds like and then you immediately ran to hr.

Speaker 2 (48:42):
I didn't name it anymore anywhere. The point being is
is that this is gonna come this is coming out now?
Oh sh war is this is?

Speaker 4 (48:48):
This has been well document it sounds like it's going
to get worse mm hm. And that how much of
this was a cover up?

Speaker 2 (48:58):
How much of this was god eyes just saying things
because they want to sound like they were in the know,
and how much of this was we're looking to find
we've got this smoking gun, We're going to use this
when we want to use it.

Speaker 4 (49:15):
And again we're not close to the situations, we can't
speak to it. But man, And then the story went
from you dumb ass to what's the hell's going on?
When he was breaking into the girl's house? Is allegedly
all this is allegedly.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
And then you're he's like threatening to kill himself and
kill and hurt others. I mean, this thing turned super
super dark in a very short period of time. And
this is not just exclusive to college athletics. This is
this is Fortune five hundred companies.

Speaker 9 (49:52):
It just is.

Speaker 4 (49:53):
Yeah, I remember the whole Coldplay thing. Oh yes, see
the CEO of whatever that.

Speaker 2 (49:59):
Place was called. I can't even father.

Speaker 4 (50:00):
There's AI photos of that being shown out there that
I've already received.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
What do you mean assimilating the Sharon More holding the
girl like, oh my, wrong with you? We need to
get a getting sent to me. I have not seen those. Well,
I guess I'm gonna send it. I don't want to
like you gotta block you. No, you can't. You cannot
do that. I'm gonna send it to you right now,
all right?

Speaker 4 (50:23):
Seven one three two one two five seven ninety seven

I'm sending this take a break. No, I want to

Speaker 2 (50:38):
I don't want to see Sharon More AI videos with
him in his video.

Speaker 4 (50:41):
It's his slam piece Okay, well, you know what, just
delete the tweet I'm about the text I'm about to
send you there.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
It is Wow.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
Eleven nineteen on Sports Talk seven ninety Rockets against the
Clippers tonight. Looking forward to that. Uh, the launch pad'll
be hosted at six o'clock by me. It's winning doubt
at you, especially during Dan's not working a whole lot
on He's working mornings, and it's difficult to work pre
and post game work mornings. I know he should do
the weekends though, because those I don't do a whole

(51:28):
lot of weekends these days because I'm picking up all
the weekdays. So I appreciate that's good, But I appreciate
it's a team effort. Good team effort, and you're not
helping at all. Nope, but I'll help during baseball season.
You're gonna hear me a lot more next year.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
Good. Yeah, that sounds great. Yeah, Yes, that's what I'm
gonna do.

Speaker 4 (51:43):
So last night I put Amazon Prime on to uh
watch me some NBA Cup. Yes, it's the NBA Cup
on Amazon Prime. And I think generally speaking, no one cares,
and that's fine. I would care a lot more of
my team is playing in it.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
I forgot to watch. Yeah, well, here's the thing. I
put it on in the fourth quarter last night.

Speaker 4 (52:03):
Okay, she's the final score of the game last night,
which one Thunder Thunder, which like the guess I have
it in front of me. Okay, Thunder beat the Suns
one thirty eight to eighty nine. Well, granted there was
no Devin Booker. Oh wow, what's the record, I'll click it.

(52:26):
The Oklahoma City Thunder have played twenty five games.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
That is just shy.

Speaker 4 (52:32):
I have a third of a season. Okay, So I
don't know if you are on pace guy or not. Yeah,
I kind of okay, depending.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
On how far we are. I think on pace is
a third way through the seasons. On pace go ahead.

Speaker 4 (52:47):
So if they were to play seventy five games, they
would be seventy two and three. They are twenty four
and one. They are on pace to go seventy seven
and five, maybe seven seventy basically seventy nine and the seventy.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
Eight point seven wins they're on pace for. Yeah, seven,
so they're on pace for seventy nine and the three
seventy eight four. Now they're gonna take some time off
seventy three and nine, and they're gonna play an eighty
third game because they're gonna win this game against San
Antonio and they're gonna play for the championship. So they're
gonna win, they're gonna set they're gonna beat the sixteen Warriors. Well,

(53:32):
actually that game does not count the standings. Okay, they
do play an eighty third game. However, so iris On.

Speaker 4 (53:38):
Williamson, if you ever make the NBA couple, Well, the
year they got the seventy was a playing game. So
I so I say, yes, uh so they're gonna they're
gonna obliterate the all time record. Well again if now
they got two matchups left with the Rockets. My small
prayers for injuries have not come into play just yet.
Small prayers. You're flat out begging.

Speaker 2 (53:59):
That feels fair.

Speaker 4 (54:02):
Dylan Brooks last night went four for sixteen and two
of five from three, so he had he went two
of eleven inside the arc.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
You know why. I guess he takes a lot. He
takes all a contested fallaway shots. I know when they're hitting,
they're good, but I mean it's it's like, brother, you're
not Kobe Bryant. What are we doing here? Shake gilgis
Alexander eleven of fifteen from the Flame.

Speaker 4 (54:26):
I want to know, did Jalen Williams play? He played
at least right he shirt? Did he had twenty three points?
They're winning at all? No excuse me, they had fifteen.
They are winning at all. Barndre, you know what, you
might be one hundred percent accurate. I'm not going to
listen to it though I can't. I have to have
some positive juju for the rest of the way.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
So good basket.

Speaker 4 (54:45):
This is a really good basketball team that's running into
maybe the greatest single season team in the history. And
that's saying something because we watched the Golden State warders
in the Chicago Bowls. If their rotation is healthy, they're
winning at all.

Speaker 2 (54:54):
I mean, that's just how it is.

Speaker 4 (54:57):
I want to look at simmy free throw. They're twenty
four in shake Gilles line three for only three times. Yes,
is there any precedent for this? What I haven't even read,
like some kind of record twenty four of the first
twenty five.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
We'll go look at what Golden State did and what
Chicago did. You can pay see what their pace was.
But I'm going to assume that.

Speaker 4 (55:17):
I mean looking at it that they had lost more
than one game in the first twenty five. I'm gonna
assume that too, but I remember they got off to
a really hot start the Warriors did that year, and
then they started dropping games as the season went along.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
So let me ask you this question and more of
a macro view of things. If you are a team.

Speaker 4 (55:35):
Like the Houston Rockets or the San Antonio Spurs or
the Los Angeles Lakers, or if you're a team in
the Eastern Conference like the New York Knicks, or you
are the Milwaukee Bucks, or you are the who else
is intent Orlando My?

Speaker 2 (55:48):
You know, teams like that. Do you think they started
twenty four to oho? Who did the Bulls the Warriors?

Speaker 11 (55:57):
Or is it?

Speaker 2 (55:57):
Okay? So they're really right there on top of him,
and then they lost They lost their twenty fifth game,
so twenty four and one at the same pace. So
let's go back to my question then, sorry, if you
are seeing what Oklahoma City does, does it make you
more apt to go get a dynamic trade by the
deadline or do you go in the back of your
mind you would never say publicly ever, but indirectly, in

(56:20):
your back of your mind, you would say, I go
trade for Walton Cream in their prime, and I'm not
beating Goldens, I'm not beating Oklahoma City.

Speaker 11 (56:28):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (56:28):
I think if you are a select few, you still
try to improve if there is room for improvement. If
you are the Nuggets, the Rockets, Lakers, Spurs, yes, anybody
in the East, Pistons, Nicks. I mean, I forgot we
mentioned Denver two. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (56:49):
I think if you're top five in the West, you
try to improve. So I will make this blanket statement. Then,
based off of what you said, I agree with you.
I want the Hueton Rockets to start to beat the
Oklahoma City thunder As. And again you can go onto
the notion of they can't play this way for set
eighty two.

Speaker 2 (57:09):
Everybody is everybody is human.

Speaker 4 (57:11):
There could be a stretch where they rest guys, or
they play five games in eight days and they're gonna
go two and three during that mark, or even three
and two. But ladies and gentlemen, they're on pace too
easily win seventy, if not seventy five games. Now Again,

(57:31):
one little losing streak can change all this in a heartbeat.
But I don't want to watch an NBA season or
I'm crying my champion in mid December.

Speaker 2 (57:44):
Now, it's out of my control, clearly.

Speaker 4 (57:46):
But if you are going to go do this and
you're not going to just lay down and give Oklahoma
City the Western Conference Championship and the NBA title, then
if I'm Denver, San Antonio, Ston Minnesota Lakers, I want
to improve. I want I want to make it as

(58:10):
difficult as possible. I don't want Oklahoma City to win
in a second straight year. And oh, by the way,
they're gonna have the Phoenix Suns pick in the next year.
They've got a bunch of first round picks coming up
in future years. They're just starting a potential dynasty.

Speaker 2 (58:26):
And as our responsibility as fans of other teams to
make sure this dynasty gets quashed. You know, there's not
a whole lot we can do. I know ninety six
Bulls won twenty three of their first twenty five and
then they lost their twenty sixth game, and then they
ripped off an eighteen game winning streak. Yes, we're talking

(58:51):
about the ninety six Bulls and the sixteen Warriors.

Speaker 4 (58:55):
Which both and the twenty all in with a six
huh ninety six sixteen and the twenty sixth thunder.

Speaker 2 (59:05):
Who do you want? Then? Who don't want?

Speaker 11 (59:07):
For what?

Speaker 2 (59:08):
Who's Who's? Is that what you want? Yep?

Speaker 4 (59:13):
Who's gonna get them to be close? And that gets
you neck and neck depending on what you give up,
like you're gonna have to give up a lot. The
Milwaukee Bucks don't want the two thousand thirty two Rockets
draft pick or the San Antonio Spurs twenty twenty eight pick.
They want live bodies. Because if you're giving up the

(59:34):
greatest the second greatest player you've ever had in your team,
I'm assuming Loui Center would be the greatest, although I
don't know you could could.

Speaker 2 (59:41):
Did Gianni's top Oscar Robertson Oscar there for that long?
But yeah?

Speaker 4 (59:45):
And did he top lou Alcinder? I know that's a
debate for Milwaukee fans. You gotta give up stuff? Are
you just shuffle? Are you just shuffling the pieces around?
It feels like, you know, God should ask about this,
Daryl Morey. It feels like the Warriors were the that
that Arrow Warriors. You know what the easiest thing would be,

(01:00:06):
It would be just to go find the best player
in a team that's gonna win thirty games this year
and bring him here and give him the draft packages
you want. You need to find a rebuilding team that's
not gonna make the playoffs that needs draft commodities. Yeah,
but they'd have to be on a second contract because
they're not going to give up a great player on
a rookie deal.

Speaker 10 (01:00:27):
No.

Speaker 4 (01:00:28):
So that's gonna cost you a lot of money. I mean,
you got to send money out. That's the NBA way.
What is it, twenty five percent of the money you
have to match? I mean up to seventy five percent,
I should say. I'm just saying I don't want to
hand it to him. No, Well, you're gonna play the games. Yes,
do you think MAKA is laying down? Oh my god,

(01:00:51):
throw Kevin Durant's laying down.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
I throw hands. We almost beat him on opening night there,
and you know League is of course on the backup. Yeah,
wasn't there Darrin Smith, Darran Phinie Smith one there? Oh
that's true.

Speaker 4 (01:01:06):
Kevin Durant tried to call the time out to get called.
But yes, they belong on the floor with them. They
are close. They are the next they are the next
closest thing by point differential right now and I'm telling
you I think they're best equipped to go seven games
with them. Okay, maybe I'm too big of a home run.

Speaker 9 (01:01:26):
Now, No, you're not.

Speaker 4 (01:01:27):
They can go seven games seven games twice. They're not
going to change who they are, but they're better this year.
The Rockets are not going to change who they are
today than they are when the postseason starts. Other teams
do change, games get called differently, pace close, the better read.
Shepherd's getting better. Yeah, okay, I'm just telling you as
the voice of the Rockets, I'm not giving up. But

(01:01:48):
I'm sick to my stomach that Oklahoma City is as
good as they are.

Speaker 9 (01:01:50):
Sick.

Speaker 2 (01:01:51):
It sucks.

Speaker 4 (01:01:53):
They pounded the living hell out of Phoenix last night,
beat them to a pulp. It's you're Christianno Ronaldo, You're
this great generational talent. But Leo Messi's there and he's better.

Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
It just it sucks. That's just how it is.

Speaker 4 (01:02:10):
For someone doesn't follow soccer. I get the reference. Thank you,

Jonathan will have something, Ross Will has something in mine.
I'll go first today. And if you have something you

one three two, one two five seven ninety seven one
three two, one two five seven nine zero.

Speaker 2 (01:04:14):
All right, I have.

Speaker 4 (01:04:19):
Comfortably five sets of friends that are either engaged or married, Okay,
that love going to Disney World and or Disneyland as adults. Now,

(01:04:40):
I'm not shaming what you do for your vacation. I
just don't get it. So okay, I'm I'm I understand.

Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
So while you were saying that I was gonna put, like,
why who did I was gonna put why are Disney adults?
I put that into Google? Do you want to read
you the suggestions? Please? I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:05:08):
This is from Gosney Adult. This is from high This
is from Google dot com. It's not from Matt Thomas
or ross Ormea. Why are Disney adults fat? Why are
Disney adults so weird? Why are Disney adults hated? Why

(01:05:28):
are Disney adults so cringe? These are the Google suggestions, Matt, Look,
it's not me, Well that's good. Why are Disney adults
so annoying? Why are Disney adults obsessed with Disney?

Speaker 2 (01:05:40):
That's what I was.

Speaker 4 (01:05:41):
I was just kind of I was gonna put in
AI and see what they said. And those were the
Google suggestions.

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
And again, all it takes is one of you that
would like to call the show. Now, grant, we've not
Our audience is probably eighty eighty five percent mail. So
I don't know if male would want to call a
sports radio show and explain why they are a Disney adult.
But if you are a Disney adult and would life
explain why you are such? And I'm Ross, I'm talking
about I've got young friends. I and I have two

(01:06:14):
sets of friends are my age that you go every
they go on Disney trips to disney Land, Disneyld, they
go on Disney cruises.

Speaker 2 (01:06:24):
I literally just don't get it.

Speaker 4 (01:06:29):
I mean, I guess there's enthusiasts for everything. I love
Lion King, Little Mermaid, Toy Story when I was a kid, Disney.
I don't think Toy Story is Disney. I think is
Disney Pixar is on my Disney. You know what Disney Pixar. Yeah,

(01:06:51):
that's okay.

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
We actually all knew that he is young. He is young.

Speaker 4 (01:06:58):
So let's say that you and your lady Jonathan, Yeah,
are discussing if you're gonna get married down the road
and you know who never know? And they she says,
what do you want? Because you know, you, as the
mail are responsible for paying for the honeymoon. If she
said let's go to Orlando for a week and get
onto all the parks, what would your reaction be?

Speaker 12 (01:07:19):
You know, only because I've only been to Disneyland, I'll
say yes for the one time. But she's been to
Disney World and Disneyland, so I don't know, and I
gotta pay for it.

Speaker 4 (01:07:27):
Well, I mean in theory, you don't. I mean it's
your responsibility, but I mean your parents could help you.
You could have people's friends honeymoon. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. No, no, no, okay,
So do you get adults, Jonathan, do you get it
or don't get it going to Disney without their kids?

Speaker 12 (01:07:49):
No, I'm at the gut to I don't understand, and
I guess it's like trauma for them.

Speaker 2 (01:07:52):
I don't know that like a like a Peter Pant
syndrome that yes, I've got Peter pantsenter. I'm i fully saying,
I'm fourty years old and not married, no kids, but
I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. So I've come
to the two of you. You've given me no ideas. Why, why?

Speaker 8 (01:08:10):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
What's behind it? I mean you know what?

Speaker 4 (01:08:13):
You can also be just as simplistic as we like it. Hey,
we got a Disney door right now. It also depends
on how obsessed you are, like some people are. Any
obsession of anything is not good. Yeah, but if you
just want to go to Disney World, that's cool. But
if you are like this is my seventeenth trip to
Disney World, like you got a problem. I count my

(01:08:34):
Vegas trips. That's a problem. Well, we know you've got problems. Yeah,
but I'm fully ready to admit that.

Speaker 2 (01:08:39):
Yeah. All right, Sam, Are you a Disney adult? Yes
or no? Yes I am, Please explain.

Speaker 6 (01:08:50):
Multiple readers. Now, Well, Ross just said about the obsession.
I agree with. There are some over the top, overly
obsessed with Disney adults. I'm not one of those going
to get dressed up in character go act like I'm
a Disney prince while I'm there talking to characters and princesses.
Funny enough, i just got back from Disney World yesterday.

(01:09:12):
Uh family trip went on a cruise. First, there were
those Disney adults. There was there's a grown woman there
dressed up like Cinderella, meeting the princesses, acting like a
princess and character.

Speaker 2 (01:09:23):
That was talked about within.

Speaker 6 (01:09:25):
My family as well.

Speaker 2 (01:09:26):
I'm not one of those.

Speaker 6 (01:09:28):
I enjoy the this you overall experience of not just
the parks, but the hotels, The logistics of how Disney operates,
the cleanliness of the parks, the bus is, the boats,
just getting around on property just fascinates me.

Speaker 11 (01:09:46):
I'm a hotel guy.

Speaker 2 (01:09:48):
You h grad go Kog's hotel and Sam you you
have good taste, then you know what a good hotel
is all about.

Speaker 11 (01:09:55):
That.

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
I I have a major respect to you.

Speaker 6 (01:09:58):
Yeah, so I I go and I enjoy visiting the
different hotels and staying at a different hotel while I'm
there and just kind of appreciate what they do hospitality want.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
Yes, yeah, yeah, Okay, you have a different angles. So
how old are your kids? Mask Uh?

Speaker 6 (01:10:15):
One just turned three and about to turn five.

Speaker 4 (01:10:17):
Okay, well then you're really not a Disney adult because
you have you gone to Disney without your kids?

Speaker 1 (01:10:23):
Uh?

Speaker 6 (01:10:24):
In October for my fortieth my wife and I flew
up on Friday, went to Epcot for the day for
the food and wine fest. Wrote a couple rides and
ride the rides. We're talking about the roller coaster rides,
not the kiddie rides. You didn't around the uh not
this time? Nolt walked around Epcot, grabbed a few drinks

(01:10:45):
around the International Showcase, woke up Sunday morning, and flew home.

Speaker 2 (01:10:50):
That was without the kids. Okay, that that's Disney adult.

Speaker 4 (01:10:53):
But that but you know what you're you have a
different perspective, which I can greatly appreciate because you know
I have a hotel snob as well, So I'm going
to give you a sports MPT pass that you were
looking for one.

Speaker 2 (01:11:03):
But you you have two young children who lanta go there.

Speaker 4 (01:11:06):
It makes sense you didn't spend six days or you
went depcop for one day. You also are in the
in the hotel restaurant industry. It makes total sense, Sam,
I get you. How about that? I get what you did.

Speaker 2 (01:11:20):
Thank you, Sam. I appreciate the phone call there. It
is all right, gentlemen. But two of my closest married
friend couples every year they go every single year. I
just don't get it.

Speaker 4 (01:11:38):
And I know what, if they're in together, you find
somebody that matches your freak, good for them.

Speaker 2 (01:11:42):
I got you, Ross, What don't you get? I mentioned
earlier this week that I was at a sports bistro
that shall not be named this weekend to watch the
Sunday night football game with my brother and father. And
you know what I was like, you know what, I
want to something a little lighte. I don't want to
eat a bunch of disgusting fried food. I'm gonna get

(01:12:04):
a chicken salad.

Speaker 4 (01:12:05):
So I look at the menu and there is a
chicken salad that has blue cheese, yum, blue cheese dressing
and crumbles correct bacon bits all for it and it's
fried chicken. Fine, it's eleven and eighty calories. Oh do
you don't know how much the triple bacon cheeseburger? What
two patties and three the triple bacon was twelve hundred

(01:12:29):
twenty more calories for a triple bacon cheeseburger.

Speaker 2 (01:12:34):
I don't get it. Who's order now?

Speaker 4 (01:12:36):
I got the chicken grilled. I didn't realize there were
bacon bits on it until afterwards. I would have said
no bacon bits. Like if, I don't get why this
is on the menu, and who is ordering this trying
to delude themselves into thinking that they are healthy because
it has the calories printed right there.

Speaker 2 (01:12:50):
I don't get it.

Speaker 4 (01:12:51):
Why do we have to chuck all this stuff onto
the salad where people are trying to eat healthy? When
you want a salad, you're trying to eat healthier. It's
only twenty calories fewer than a triple bacon cheeseburger.

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
I don't get it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:01):
I think the average person, if fried chicken is on
a salad, nos, it's not a healthy option, then why
you're ordering it because you love fried chicken, you love lettuce.
If you don't, you don't want the bread, you don't
want the bun that goes with it, and you don't
want fries a chicken sandwich without the bun? Who does
Keto and I've been very few, Um, I get it

(01:13:26):
because I think at the end of the day that people,
I think restaurants try to fool you.

Speaker 2 (01:13:30):
Into thinking something is healthy when it's not.

Speaker 4 (01:13:32):
Okay, so the restaurant then, but they have the calories
printed on there, fooling anybody didn't fool you, you win,
they lose.

Speaker 2 (01:13:40):
I guess grilled chicken helped you out tremendously, by the way,
hopefully id your calories down big time, I would hope.

Speaker 4 (01:13:45):
So, all right, John, then we'll get to yours when
we come back. We got Kenny as well seven one
three two one two five seven Nani seven one three
two one two five seven Anti I just don't get
it continues here on Sports Talk seven NUNTI. All right, Jonathan,
we got a lot of folks that things are confusing
in their life, so let's help them out.

Speaker 2 (01:14:06):
But you first, my friend, you are part of the show.
You are a part of our family. What don't you get?

Speaker 9 (01:14:10):
Uh?

Speaker 12 (01:14:10):
You know? Since this recent news about the Michigan coach,
Like I just I don't understand because and I'll pull
the curtain back a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:14:19):
But when you're an athlete, and it could be any division, you.

Speaker 12 (01:14:23):
Go to different cities and you see your teammates, you know,
I'm not gonna say the names, but they'll go mess
around with some girls even though they got somebody with
under their shoulder. Like what ros said, You said, you're Paul,
and it's between y'all. You just leave it between you
see what's going on. But I just never understood, like
there was one cat I knew on on these campuses.
His girl was gonna be a nurse and all this
stuff was good grades and everything and was every trick

(01:14:45):
for going on. I'm backing on somebody else and it
doesn't make any sense to me. I just don't get
cheating in general. I don't understand it. And I guess
it's dawn time. No one understands. But like I don't
get to do a kids too. I don't understand it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:01):
Totally get it. It's undefeated, That's all I can tell you.
Not that I've done it. But I'm saying it's undefeated. Bross.
Argue with me about it, you can. I'm not arguing
with you.

Speaker 4 (01:15:19):
I mean, maybe he's unhappy with his girl, Maybe he's
unhappy with himself. Maybe he likes the attention and the validation.
Who knows, could be any number of reasons.

Speaker 2 (01:15:28):
But like we when you when I get to girl's
age and I have kids on all this stuff?

Speaker 9 (01:15:32):
Man, what what?

Speaker 2 (01:15:33):
What more do you want?

Speaker 11 (01:15:34):
Is that just.

Speaker 2 (01:15:38):
You're answering your own question. I'm asking a different question there.

Speaker 7 (01:15:43):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:15:44):
But man, see, I just know we didn't we didn't
have a little heart to heart after all.

Speaker 11 (01:15:51):
Fair.

Speaker 4 (01:15:51):
Yeah, this is this is much more affair than it
is on air. At the end of the day, we're animals.
I'm just gonna leave it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:59):
That, Kenny, What don't you get Kenny?

Speaker 7 (01:16:05):
Hey, Matt, how are you there?

Speaker 10 (01:16:06):
Good?

Speaker 2 (01:16:07):
What's going on?

Speaker 13 (01:16:09):
Hey?

Speaker 10 (01:16:09):
Well?

Speaker 15 (01:16:09):
First about the Disneyland people, I think I mean, I'm
gonna eliminate two categories of people. One people who never
got to go when they were a child, and number two,
the men that do whatever their wife tells them they're
gonna do. But so I got two things that I
don't get. And what's funny is they're going to merge

(01:16:30):
together and then.

Speaker 16 (01:16:31):
I'm going to get it next year.

Speaker 15 (01:16:35):
This is I'm sure Ross's ears are going to perk up.
When I mentioned FIFA soccer and the World Cup coming
next year. I don't understand pride night at sporting events,
and I certainly don't understand stand soccer. But in Seattle
next year they're going to have Egypt versus Iran.

Speaker 7 (01:16:58):
Pride night World Cup.

Speaker 2 (01:17:01):
They're they're trying to protest.

Speaker 7 (01:17:06):
I hope ru Paul does the coin toss.

Speaker 15 (01:17:09):
I hope Elton john sings God Bless America.

Speaker 7 (01:17:13):
They make them wear rainbows on their uniform.

Speaker 15 (01:17:16):
Man, Oh, it's gonna be so good, Maddie.

your own bedrooms, Jason, do some research again.

Speaker 4 (01:17:44):
My name is pauls between y'all, yeah, which you consenting
adults want to do what they want to do.

I know.

Speaker 2 (01:17:52):
We just watch About the Way when he's at the bar.

Speaker 4 (01:17:55):
John and I have never seen a full episode of
uh of that movie, full episode, full, the full version.

Speaker 9 (01:18:01):
You know what.

Speaker 12 (01:18:02):
I only watched it again because Ross was saying how
good it was, and we were just sitting there board
and I, actually you didn't like it? No, no, no,
I was sitting there. We were sitting that board, watch
even know what to watch? And I've okay, do you
like it?

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):
Actually was pretty I'll give it a SATISFI I will
peel the curtain back and it's it's a little racy.
What uh? Kim came over. Yeah, I know we've heard
go ahead tell the story. No, she came over and
I said, let's watch Pulp Fiction. And we didn't get
too far into the movie. That's my story. That's it. Okay,

(01:18:38):
that's it. That's all. I'll tell you more about that,
and the other says, you're gory details? Would you do?
Five minutes later, cuddled the movie. We were we were busy.

Speaker 4 (01:18:49):
You probably only missed one scene. John, what don't you
get yo.

Speaker 8 (01:18:54):
Hey, yeah, I don't get these short pants that all of.

Speaker 2 (01:18:58):
These guys are wearing short pants like capri pants.

Speaker 8 (01:19:04):
Uh, yeah, that's the football players at the high school level.

Speaker 11 (01:19:10):
Short pants.

Speaker 2 (01:19:11):
Yeah, they're trying to stay light. They're trying to not
be cumbers. One word and only swags. Drip's grip drip.
That's a dang you old person saying that too, little lemons,
I'm dripped. He just said I'm a drip. That's incorrect.

(01:19:33):
You to the phrase. You can say it like that,
Thank you, No, you can. I just met it up.
You gotta you gotta be cool with it. That has
a young daughter. He knows. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:19:43):
By the way, speaking of that, Carly, if you're listening
what you're not and if you are your trouble because
you should be in school.

Speaker 2 (01:19:51):
She cannot stop walk in the house. She says six seven.
All damn yeah, I don't get it. Even at in
and out you can't. They got rid of the order
six seven because people were going kids were going into
in and outs and waiting for the guy to say
order six seven, and people were losing their minds over it.

Speaker 4 (01:20:14):
They eliminated sixty seven. I don't know why they do
that keep the business up. It's probably all the sixty
sevens have been stolen from the water Burgers.

Speaker 2 (01:20:23):
Kyle, what don't you get?

Speaker 7 (01:20:26):
I don't have a I.

Speaker 16 (01:20:28):
Don't get anything.

Speaker 8 (01:20:29):
I have a gut feeling.

Speaker 17 (01:20:30):
I need to get it in today because it starts
tonight when the Rockets play.

Speaker 16 (01:20:34):
Oh my gut feeling from now and Christmas Day.

Speaker 17 (01:20:41):
I know they play at home, but the whole tonight,
but the whole.

Speaker 16 (01:20:44):
Road trip they're going undefeated. Oh well yeah, and when
they play the Lakers on Christmas Day, we get to
watch Lebron and Luca cry be the best Christmas gift.

Speaker 2 (01:20:56):
Ever, Yeah, the gift of tears.

Speaker 17 (01:20:58):
Yes, gut feeling is I don't think Tarry Easton's coming
back until next year January first.

Speaker 2 (01:21:06):
But it could be about right.

Speaker 10 (01:21:09):
Y.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
We we mixed our segments in. He had to get
it in today? Yeah? Uh, last one? Aaron and Kingwood Aaron,
what don't you get? Yes? They have two things.

Speaker 8 (01:21:20):
First, I don't get how there's a local sports radio
host hating on the Stephen at Boston Lumberjacks and them
beating weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:21:29):
Yeah, because he's a hater.

Speaker 4 (01:21:32):
I don't get that either I don't even get where
Stephen at Boston is they go ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
Well, a lot of people don't.

Speaker 8 (01:21:39):
And then and then my second second thing with the
uh Disney with the adults. Now, I'm a similar age
and our girls were older in the twenties, and so
we're using that as a trip every now and then.
And say, for example, go to Epcot and go drink
around the world.

Speaker 2 (01:21:59):
Yeah, you know what, I will say this. I know
Epcot is the least kitty of the parks that are
down there, and people do go there to get.

Speaker 4 (01:22:08):
Have cocktails from different parts of the world. But I'm
talking about my friends, two amazing couples. Every year they
were in their Mickey Mouse ears. They're having breakfast with
snow White.

Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
It's just weird.

Speaker 4 (01:22:25):
It's probably a deep rooted psychological issues. But he as
long as they're doing together. But don't we all have
them though, Yeah, of course, and we'll figure out mine.

Speaker 2 (01:22:34):
Oh I got a book. No, what we're really gonna do,
We're gonna take care of some kids. Is the mac
Thomas Show with Ross twelve O six Sports Talk seven.
That was a fun edition off.

Speaker 4 (01:22:53):
I just don't get it, and I think most people
will understand that there are some people in your life
if they do love them some Disney and that.

Speaker 13 (01:23:03):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:23:04):
Look, everybody has got their own things. I love to gamble.
Some people like I don't want to gamble. I want
to go drink or I want to go go to beach.
Some people want to hang out with us. Huh with
the Seven Dwarfs. Yeah, Grace has shut your mo mass up.
Oh there has a picture of her with a picture
of her with with mouse ears on. Love you Grace,

(01:23:28):
she says, I find your casino trips weird. I don't
you know what again, But that's more of an adult playground. Yeah,
well that's what Disney. Maybe it isn't. Yeah, maybe maybe
Disney is the adult playground, but you get to be
an adult to pay for it.

Speaker 4 (01:23:43):
I mean I get it when people, yeah ask me
or that I meet or talk to and they're like, okay,
so you go into this casino and.

Speaker 2 (01:23:51):
You give them your money and you probably don't bring
it back. Yes, that's what we all got. We all
got issues. I mean I would m Yeah, that's the
deduction we made out of this. Well, it's right time
now for the news at noon. What and with that
we present to you the Sage Deal of Houston Sports News.

(01:24:14):
It's thank you, ross a Man Well the top sports
news item of the day. We've been talking about this
extensively today. Michigan head coach Charon Moore has been fired
for cause by the Michigan Wolverines Athletic department. Well, I

(01:24:35):
guess that by the school. Also, though, Charon Moore is
in custody as a suspect in alleged assault and he
is expected to appear in court for arrangment tomorrow, according
to the.

Speaker 4 (01:24:49):
Pittsfield Charter Township Department of Public Safety. A prosecutor's office
told ESPN that it does not expected decision today on
whether or not to while criminal charges against more. Authorities
have yet to release details about his arrest, other than
to say he remains under investigation. He was held in

(01:25:11):
jail on Wednesday, just hours after he was fired as
the Wolverines head coach for what the school said was
an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. So this is
what is officially being reported.

Speaker 2 (01:25:22):
There are a number of rumors swirling around about who
this woman was, whether or not they denied a relationship,
and now it came to light. Also stories and rumors
about him possibly threatening her life and his own life
and the life's life and the crow. There's a lot
of up in the air information.

Speaker 12 (01:25:42):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:25:43):
Yes, so he has been terminated with cause, effective immediately.
What does this mean for the cheese at ball as
they take on the Texas Longhorns but the Longhorns heavy? Well,
I wonder if the line has even moved.

Speaker 4 (01:26:00):
It was you know what, I should go look at
that you talk about six point favorite right plug your
Instagram It was four and a half to five and
a half. Okay, by the way, the instagram account is
at sports MT If you follow me, the Rockets will
win tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:26:15):
All's promises the Cougars will cover this Saturday game. And
you said the Cougars were gonna beat West Virginia if
I followed you, Um, it's a six and a half.
That's at least the point movement. Really, you're telling me
open at four and a half.

Speaker 4 (01:26:31):
Its salacious affairs caused point shifts. Well, it feels like
a lot of players might opt out or something now
that the coaches out, maybe even try to transfer if
that was their guy and he's gone.

Speaker 2 (01:26:40):
Is it too late to transfer? No, let's bring Chris
Gordy in for this. You still hit the portal?

Speaker 4 (01:26:47):
Locked on Gordon did an emergency special? I'm sure no,
Actually the Big Ten people, he's locked on sec you know,
locked on Big Ten?

Speaker 2 (01:26:52):
Maybe did it? Yeah? Huh? All right?

Speaker 4 (01:26:57):
So expected into court on Friday, all right. Else Where
I'm at, there have been a lot of reports about
the Houston Astros in various trades that may be made.

Speaker 2 (01:27:08):
Jake Myers continues to be named in trade rumors.

Speaker 4 (01:27:11):
There's also a report from Ken Rosenthal that the Red
Sox are interested in esach paratus, So which dominoes could
be falling for the Houston Astros as the winter meetings
are now over. Of course, there was the big signings
of Pete Alonzo to the Orioles, Kyle Schwarbert to the
Philadelphia Phillies, Los Angeles Dodgers, at Edwin Diaz. What will

(01:27:33):
be the fallout from all that and what does it
mean for your Houston Astros. It means that I'm waiting
for Justin Verliner to sign. I'm waiting for his white
belt to arrive. I'm waiting for Jake Myers's get a
new home, and I'm waiting for farm ber Valdez to
sign because we've got two canned goodbyes locked and loaded
from when those two gentlemen eventually the Astros. We have
a gentleman's bet on fromber five and a half years.

(01:27:54):
How you feeling.

Speaker 2 (01:27:56):
No opinion?

Speaker 6 (01:27:57):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:27:57):
Okay, I had a dream last night. No one and
I d dreams are convoluted. This was a simple one.

Speaker 4 (01:28:02):
Okay, I dreamt Now I think it's clearly a dream
because it's probably not gonna be a reality that Kyle
Tucker's on a five year contract. Listen to me listening,
this is hilarious and we're on the air. Oh my god,
I jump out of my chair.

Speaker 2 (01:28:16):
Yes, I we have a white door that's right in
front of us, and it allows us to enter an
exit the sooner and I ran throughout the entire offices
of the iHeartMedia building here in the seventh floor, on
the seventh floor, screaming, I won the bet. I won
the bet.

Speaker 4 (01:28:29):
So is that what I'm gonna do when I went?
So here's the sad part of it. So I go
to the sales pit and I'm screaming, I won the bet.

Speaker 2 (01:28:39):
I won the bet.

Speaker 4 (01:28:42):
And there were two female sales reps in there and
they said what was the bet? And I explained what
the bet was and they said.

Speaker 2 (01:28:50):
What show are you on? And who is Kyle Tucker?
And I woke up in a cold suck because I'm like,
this sucks? Is this real? Yeah? It's a god God's
on a street bath. I was gonna say this for
the Kyle Tucker conversation, but I'm saying I'm doing it now.
What the hell is wrong with you?

Speaker 4 (01:29:08):
These are two women that I consider friends of mine
in this office that were like, who's Kyle Tucker?

Speaker 2 (01:29:13):
And what show are you on? When they say what
show are you on? I think I dropped my head
down on my bottom of my chin and just walk
in disgrace.

Speaker 4 (01:29:21):
What is this thicket of mess that is inside your brain?
This is different, This is layers. There's a lot to
sort through, a lot of layers. I'm donating my brain science.

Speaker 2 (01:29:30):
You should. It's like a class song with unlimited layers.
I'm like an onion.

Speaker 4 (01:29:35):
You peel it back, yeah, and the more you peel,
the more it stinks. You can saw tay it beautifully.
Put on your sandwiches, say your brain. Yeah, well onion?

Speaker 2 (01:29:44):
All right? Moving along the Oklahoma City Thunder, Oh, here
we go.

Speaker 4 (01:29:49):
Last night absolutely trounced the Phoenix Suns one of thirty
eight eighty nine. I couldn't even do the math on
that one, thirty eight to eighty nine. Let's see, that's
forty nine. Yes, it was fifty different couple different times
in the game.

Speaker 2 (01:30:08):
There're county kind of game. He's like, I'm so bored,
I can't even use all my favorite cliche terms. Twenty
four and one tied with the best Well, I'm gonna
assume tied with the best start ever because I looked
up only the sixteen Warriors eighty six. Celtics won sixty
nine games, I think.

Speaker 4 (01:30:27):
And then there was like one of the one of
the Lakers teams in the early seventies, one like seventy
or something.

Speaker 2 (01:30:34):
It doesn't matter. They're going seventy seven to five. They
are on pace for seventy eight point seven wins. Matt,
I want to say this with just the utmost respect.
When you go to bed to night, pray for your children,
Pray for world peace, Pray for good health. Except for

(01:30:55):
Thunder players torny acl shoulder separation. I don't know, ac Achilles.
This this is terrible.

Speaker 4 (01:31:05):
Do not pray for any of those people to rip
their attendance. I'm not asking for them to be hurt,
just in pain.

Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
Not hurt either, get killed, ripping your achilles hearts. Seasonless
night checked. But they can still walk and do their thing.
Have sure to have a full recovery, all right. Let's
see eighty six Celtics only won sixty seven games. Actually,
seventy two wins for the ninety six Bulls, seventy three
wins for these sixteen Warriors. Seventy two Lakers won sixty nine,

(01:31:32):
as did the ninety seven Bulls.

Speaker 4 (01:31:35):
Damn they won seventy two and sixty nine games and
back to back years. Whoa, and now they're in they're going.
Oh they're going to Vegas. People don't colmemist. They don't
want to go to Vegas. Oh, by the way, the
thunder sixty eight wins last year are in the top
ten of all.

Speaker 2 (01:31:52):
Wins all time, and they're even better. Stop it.

Speaker 4 (01:31:57):
Rockets tonight gets the clips. Let's go, how are we feeling?
I told you one by at least ten, I'm sorry
nine and a half.

Speaker 2 (01:32:06):
Yeah, give up those points, okay, James James Harden will
go the free throw line seventy three times, and the.

Speaker 4 (01:32:13):
Tribute videos have gotten oh no, zero tributes. Okay, because
last time there was a Jalen Green and a Dylan Brooks.

Speaker 2 (01:32:19):
That was very nice.

Speaker 4 (01:32:20):
Dylan's was done during this opening lineup. I know he
got a little emotional. I gotta forcome myself.

Speaker 5 (01:32:26):
You did.

Speaker 2 (01:32:26):
He's here for two years. Doesn't mean we didn't brow Okay,
we bonded. I mean he was nice, but hitdn't on
my name. But I mean, come on, he is a
role player that was here for two years. Hey, best
were shooting in the team last year. What did I
say that was wrong?

Speaker 15 (01:32:39):
He was a role player.

Speaker 4 (01:32:40):
I was here for two years. Pretty guddy love him. Okay,
now he's in Phoenix. I mean I'm wishing him the
best shooting to contested eighteen footers.

Speaker 2 (01:32:48):
Miss. He was very nice to us. Good dude. I
think got a bad rat because he is an enforcer
on the floor, but seems like a pretty good guy
off of it. I'm wishing him the best.

Speaker 4 (01:32:57):
Seven one three two one two five seven ninety seven
one three two one two five seven ninety.

Speaker 2 (01:33:04):
I'm handling today's edition. To believe it or not, it
is all things about the number seventeen, is that, rossy?
Why not six seven? Because I hate six seven. People
Stop sending me texts and photos of old men doing

Rivers Uh got back with a Colt yesterday in war
seventeen and he said, I man, I asked, he said,

so they're all it should be a full go tonight.

Speaker 7 (01:34:25):
You're right, Alphas. I met Stephen Adams, and man, we
needed those two big bodies there for the Mavericks game.
It hurt when h Thompson got his fourth pout on
the third quarter when they were just gunning. He just
hurt so much. When they took his defense off the floor,
we couldn't make any baskets. Uh, And I'm just excited
to have the big boys back on the floor. I

(01:34:48):
went to a game with the sons of the sunt
game and I think I was sitting at the score table,
perhaps next to your boss. Do you have the pr
manager your boss? No, I forget her name. Yeah, I
didn't ask her directly. Well, I asked her. She wouldn't
She wouldn't kill me.

Speaker 2 (01:35:10):

Actually no, no, no, she wouldn't tell me if she
was your bob.

Speaker 4 (01:35:14):
Oh no, no, I have another supervisor there. I. Tracey

I couldn't do my job if not for her help.

Speaker 7 (01:35:24):
Well, she she was very nice lady, and mister Jeff
Green goes very friendly very friendly with her, and I
took my mom to the game, and once Tracy set
him down, uh, he kind of don know my mom.
I had to get up there and usin Elfo get
Jeff to get off my mom. I don't know what
the deal is with that, but uh, I'm excited to

(01:35:44):
uh to watch the boys tonight. Uh man. I love
it when everybody's healthy. I hate it when we're missing
people because it just feels like I got to eat
the feeling the astros. Somebody's gonna go off stick again
and we're gonna lose this game.

Speaker 2 (01:35:58):
So I'm excited for everybody, and let's go all right,
Thank you, Brent.

Speaker 4 (01:36:02):

Jeff and Brent's mom were so tight.

Wow, that's cool. You never know when love going to.

Speaker 4 (01:36:10):
Pop up in an area of our admiration. Okay, I mean, Pat, Beverly,
you went right after missus Thomas. It happens, it's uncomfortable.

(01:36:34):
I put it off well seven one three two one
two five seven ninety seven one three two one two
five seven ninety.

Speaker 2 (01:36:43):
Doctor Roger, Yes, Hello Roger.

Speaker 11 (01:36:47):
Hellot match a little loss?

Speaker 9 (01:36:49):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (01:36:51):
Oh Okay, shouting thin in the shout what's up?

Speaker 11 (01:36:55):
AnyWho? So I was kidding from new slashes on my
phone talking about the metic are close to getting Christian Walker?
Is that fake news slash or what? I can't believe that.

Speaker 2 (01:37:07):
Where did you read? What was the source?

Speaker 11 (01:37:10):
I don't know, NBA Daily and crap like that. I
don't know, I mean NLB daily, something like that.

Speaker 2 (01:37:17):
I have not heard that personally.

Speaker 11 (01:37:20):
Yeah, I've heard a couple of them, but I think,
to you know, my film's clutter with a bunch of craps.
So I'm not going to believe that anyway. How close
are we moving to moving? Uh? To moving with with
mister Myers?

Speaker 2 (01:37:34):
Uh?

Speaker 11 (01:37:34):
I hear himbout all kinds of trade rumors him and
uh him and parades? Now, why is Parade's going to
get moved? It's kind of crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:37:43):
I mean, Roger, Roger, this is kind This is just
for us talking in a crowded infield.

Speaker 2 (01:37:50):
That's a problem. There's too many people in the infield
and Christian Walker can't get moved, then est pretty is
gonna be the odd man out. And I know that
what they bron instead of moving guys around and Joe
spot us of the same thing. But that seems like
that's just not going to be a feasible idea there. Okay,
I think I got to the root of this. Bob
Nightingale made a prediction the Mets would go for Cody

(01:38:14):
Bellinger but then wind up trading for Christian Walker. It's
basically like a prediction article.

Speaker 4 (01:38:18):
And what happens when something like that happens is that
all the aggregators run with that and say Astros predicted
to trade Christian Walker to Metal sources close to It's
not really a source, so it's not necessarily a news item.
Bob Nightingale isn't saying that this is going to happen.
Obviously he's pretty well in the know, and it could happen.

Speaker 2 (01:38:38):
But there you go. It was from a prediction article
of Bob Nightingale.

Speaker 4 (01:38:44):
And I would encourage everybody to dig a little bit
deeper when you hear something from some unreliable source that
you're not sure what did he say, Sports Daily or what?

Speaker 2 (01:38:53):
I've never heard of that.

Speaker 4 (01:38:53):
No, there's nine million sports Unfortunately he's running with these things.
This website heavy I found it there. I don't even
know what that is. Really, Yeah, who's been doing that.
Sports Illustrated has been doing that. You understand, I got
news for y'all. This is no breaking news. There's like
twenty people that are legitimate sports journalists out there. The

(01:39:14):
rest are either aggregators or people that convince sports teams
they should cover teams because they've got a YouTube page.

Speaker 2 (01:39:20):
That's they're not legit media. We have a problem in Houston.

Speaker 4 (01:39:23):
We have too many people that think they're media that
not media, and that's happening on the national side too.

Speaker 2 (01:39:29):
Pay your dues. If you don't have a boss, you're
not media. Think about that. That's the simple way to
do it.

Speaker 4 (01:39:35):
If you don't have If you have no one to
answer to for your citing of facts, stories, reputation articles,
you don't, you're not media. And I'm not even claiming
credit for that. Okay, I didn't think you could come
up with that, That's right.

Speaker 2 (01:39:52):
I didn't. But when that person told me that's how
you define working for a legitimate media source, yeah, I mean,
I'm sorry, but uh, you know, bulldog dot com is
a Georgia bulldog website. They're not legitimate media. They're a
fanboy website that just brings out to get credential.

Speaker 4 (01:40:14):
That's the problem with the sports teams because they know
they're gonna get favorable media generally speaking, these and this
is this is part of the problem, is that you
have sports teams that will credential these people because I
know they're gonna they're gonna carry.

Speaker 2 (01:40:24):
Their water for them.

Speaker 4 (01:40:27):
And look, yeah, this is all three teams in our
town are guilty of it. And I'm it's tough. I
don't like it, but everybody's trying to find their own
little media windows to get positive coverage because generally speaking,
media is negative.

Speaker 2 (01:40:44):
Yeah, and I will just say yes, people are sending
us links like yeah, Bob Nightingale is doing a prediction arnticle. Look,
USA day to day comes and say, hey boy, we
need some clicks. Let's go ahead and make some predictions,
do this whatever, like bold. You know, people will do
my bold predictions for this, and then the aggregators are
run for it and be like, oh this is predicted
to happen, boom, give me clicks now, and then you're
just feeding off the clicks off of Bob Nightingale. And

(01:41:05):
then it just the bleep rolls downhill. Yep, all right,
that's not news.

Speaker 4 (01:41:10):
Yeah, we got to the Rotten Five coming go twenty minutes.
We have something really good to talk about right now, Ross.

Speaker 2 (01:41:22):
Twelve thirty seven pm here on Sports Talk seven ninety
back here on the Matt Thomas Show with Ross. We've
got the Rotten Five.

Speaker 9 (01:41:33):
Coming up.

I've been getting distracted.

folks that bring us food.

it's still gonna bring you a great rotten five now
that you.

Speaker 2 (01:42:18):
Should be surprised.

Speaker 4 (01:42:20):
But TMZ is actively working this story about the Sharon
war on the Michigan side of.

Speaker 2 (01:42:25):
The Oh, TMZ's all over it. Oh, that's exactly who
you need to roll their sleeves up on this one.
TMZ Sports, What do we got? We have dispatched to
audio stemming from the alleged Sharona Moris Dear, Yeah, I've
not heard it.

Speaker 4 (01:42:43):
Will not play it, but you know, their mouth waters
when a story like this comes out, and you don't
want to hear people at their lowest moments. H If
I was being recorded in my lowest moments, that'd be good.

Speaker 2 (01:42:57):
I was yesterday at ten o'clock start of the show. No,
we actually a good show. Yes, we have a good
show today so far, it's moving, it's been fantastic. It
has been a great week. Twelve thirty eight. Here's been
a great week of shows. Yeah, we've actually, I think
we've done okay entertaining, informative, it's wonderful. We got email
Doca tomorrow on the show. The head coach, we couldn't
get him today. One game to talk about a lot,

(01:43:20):
a lot to break down, like what, oh, I know,
what do you know?

Speaker 1 (01:43:25):
Why?

Speaker 2 (01:43:26):
Folks, he wanted email today? Why because it's a wonderful,
beautiful Thursday in the neighborhood.

Speaker 4 (01:43:31):
Turn your microphone on, turn your EARSNDS do all right,
I'm gonna you don't wanna eat some potato while you talk,
because that's about wanting to have it to carry eighty
percent of his pregame show today. It's one hundred percent true.
It's one hundred percent true, Jonathan tell him it's one
hundred percent true. He wanted this twelve minute Yeah you are,
you're as part of the show. You are involved in this,
whether you want to or not. I usually only run

(01:43:51):
about six minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:43:52):
I would say. It's it's more like seventy five per say,
he uses it for yeah, right. Usually I usually run
about six minutes. Your questions though, oh yeah, I always
cut your questions right. Actually, I cut your questions out
and re record them as if they're mine. That's blasphemy,
that's smart. I mean, that'll do. I would do the
exact same thing. I'm kidding. Thanks to all you loyal

(01:44:16):
launch bad listeners out there is very successful. We've seen already.
It's very good. It's massive.

Speaker 4 (01:44:22):
It is very good, all right, seven one, three, five,
seven nine. If you want to chime in, Yeah, when
I when I saw TMS show up, like, oh this
is they're they're gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:44:31):
Go all over this.

Speaker 10 (01:44:32):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:44:33):
Does they pay for it? Yes?

Speaker 4 (01:44:35):
They They basically have a war chest and say let's
go get the money because we're going to be able
to justify it with clicks and their TV show and
all the other things they there. Yeah, doesn't send all
all these paparazzi out harassing folks. I've seen paparazzi. I've
seen them hang out literally, was TMZ at Lax one time?

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
Yeah, they do. I think I think they What they
do is they basically pay people to just stand by
in case the celebrity pops up. You know, most people,
most celebrities, even though they can probably afford private charter,
lot of celebrities will fly commercial aircraft. Yeah, but it's
always it's crazy. I mean, do they have like an
app to recognize these celebrities?

Speaker 10 (01:45:12):
Do?

Speaker 1 (01:45:12):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:45:12):
Sometimes you go like when you're walking around LA or
I don't know wherever, and you're like, is that guy
is that very famous? Who's that guy?

Speaker 4 (01:45:19):
He looked kind of vaguely famous. But you're not sure
that happened to TMC people. I'm sure they get fooled
a lot. They got somebody in the inside get them
flight logs or something. Uh, that happens probably at the
local level. I won't mention names.

Speaker 2 (01:45:38):
I'm waiting for the rhyme. Look at Matt, folks, if
you can't, you can't see him right now. This is
radio he is.

Speaker 4 (01:45:44):
He is having an internal struggle right now? Do I
say I already know what you're gonna say. I won't saying.
I'll let you'll figure it out. But somebody was somebody
was tipping off people and that's retired.

Speaker 2 (01:45:57):
Yeah, but that was that. Probably that personally, it's not No, No,
it's not John McLean. He loves you guys. Text buddies though, Yeah,
you guys are hacking buddies. Yeah. By the way, did
you get Google Authenticator? No, it doesn't offer me that option.
What do you mean doesn't offer you know you have
to you have to opt in. You help me tomorrow

(01:46:19):
before you it's your last gift. It's your Christmas gift
to me. Fine, I won't see you until after Christmas.
I got your Christmas present you did not? Yeah, thanks whatever,
that's whatever's inside there. Okay, back to my l a
Sto'm sorry, go ahead. So TMZ will pay people to

(01:46:42):
uh to give them the audio that they you didn't
get this from me kind of stuff, uh huh. And
they'll cut them huge checks. Yes, and I guess it.
You know, I've never figured out a way how they
monetize off of it, but they do viewers TV show website,
so that kind of thing. I mean, it works out
that way. They had become the go to source. I mean,

(01:47:05):
they are the number one media tabloid. Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:47:09):
I have not looked at TMZ's website in god knows
how long, but if I ever need to get to it,
you know, the for you tab it was chosen to
think I've ended up on for like sports stuff, Yeah,
TMZ sports, I've none if I've ever been on TMZ proper.
I'll just make this very small gut feeling and this
is really not going on a limonoll. I think this
is going to get even seedier than it already has.
It's just there's more layers to the stinking onion. I

(01:47:31):
believe there are multiple women.

Speaker 2 (01:47:34):
Oh really, this is gut feeling? Or what? Yeah? Or
you did you see some whispers on the interest?

Speaker 4 (01:47:39):
Well I did see there were there were people that
noticed the apparently he had been dming quite a few
people on the Instagram.

Speaker 2 (01:47:46):
Oh shure on, mister Moore, Come on, man, I just
don't get it. She hit The wife is beautiful, three children, family.
Maybe he's unhappy.

Speaker 4 (01:48:01):
But if you're unhappy to get a divorce six almost
six million dollars a year in salary, you're coaching one
of the dream jobs in college football.

Speaker 2 (01:48:09):
See that's so. It tells you all money and success
can't buy happiness. And Jonathan it remains undefeated. Well that too,
I thought, how did how did mamasa this? I feel
so young? How did how did God create our minds
like this?

Speaker 11 (01:48:32):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:48:34):
How he would throw all that away.

Speaker 3 (01:48:37):
For that?

Speaker 2 (01:48:42):
It's the devil, The Devil's down. You got you got
the devil on your.

Speaker 4 (01:48:45):
Left arm, on your off shoulder, and you got the
angel on the right, and you gotta you gotta turn
you around.

Speaker 2 (01:48:48):
You got your brain on one shoulder and you got
something else than the other. I guess that's true.

Speaker 4 (01:48:57):
Sometimes the low guy wins a lot of time. Times yeah,
but poor poor wife, poor young family, I mean, my god.

Speaker 2 (01:49:04):
Because they're gonna be affected by this. It's heartbreaking.

Speaker 4 (01:49:06):
Yeah, because he's fired for cause, which means they don't
pay out that contract. There's only been cheating as long
as there's been marriage. I mean, you should put that
on a T shirts to make that up.

Speaker 2 (01:49:19):
I think you're pretty good. Yeah, good, you're gonna write
that down.

Speaker 4 (01:49:23):
I don't think those T shirts are gonna sell like
hotcakes that I don't think they are, not with one group.

Speaker 2 (01:49:28):
No, no, no, no, all right.

Speaker 4 (01:49:29):
Hey, uh, it takes absolutely no ability whatsoever to tell
you who the five best teams are in the NFL.
Oh yeah, rossing up to hurry and tell you who
the five wars are. Although it's not that difficult. I
mean right, I don't think something can't.

Speaker 2 (01:49:42):
Be that difficult. Seven one three two one two five
seven ninety If you want to chime in seven one
three two one two five seven, NINTI we have the
rotten five up next, believe it not. Today it's all
things about the number seventeen. And uh, we're still waiting
for the Astros to do something of a massive interest
during this offseason.

Speaker 10 (01:50:00):
We'll get they've gone there, they draw flies. It's Ross's
rotting five.

Speaker 4 (01:50:11):
This don't smell quite right. This is gonna be a doozy.
Y'all wanted to record this or go back and listen
to it later on the podcast. It's gonna be some
goal right here. Excuse me, there's a hiccup. Okay, thanks Willies.
Time now for the five worst teams. I know, let's

(01:50:32):
get to the five worst teams in the NFL. We
present to you Rosses Rotten five.

Speaker 2 (01:50:36):
Yes, sir, Now, I know the New Orleans Saints are
coming off of a win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
but they still are just three and ten on the season.
I mean, if I'd told you Tyler Schuck led the
New Orleans Saints in passing and Devin Neil led the
New Orleans Saints and rushing, you would be like, what

(01:50:57):
the heck is going on? What year is this? Where
am I? Well?

Speaker 4 (01:51:01):
Tyler Shuk had a couple of rushing touchdowns, he also
threw for a pick and only threw for one hundred
and forty five yards, but Devin Neil also rushed for
a touchdown. Saints were able to get the win. They're
now three to ten. Quite frankly, I could have moved
them out of the Roden five. But they're still the
number five worst team in the NFL because of this.

Speaker 2 (01:51:18):
Believe it. Yeah, go sick the head up though, crawl
fish though.

Speaker 4 (01:51:20):
Yeah, I mean, come on, I gotta play that every
single week. All right, let's move on down the list
to the New York Football Giants. My goodness are they awful.
Seven games in a row they have lost. Now the
late is coming thirty three to fifteen to the New
England Patriots. Giants have been terrible. Jackson Darts still flying

(01:51:41):
all over the place, taking too many hits. They've got
a mess at wide receiver since Malik Neighbors went down.
Rushing game is no good, and that defense, which was
once heralded, is giving up too many yards and too
many touchdowns. They are terrible. They've only got two wins
on the season. The New York Football Giants are the
fourth worst team in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (01:52:02):
You lose good days, all right? Look at this. We
got a surprise at number three, the Tennessee Titans. Yes,
they won their second game, so we got to bump
them up, at least temporarily on the list. Now, sure,
they beat the Cleveland Browns, who will appear later on
this list thirty.

Speaker 4 (01:52:20):
One to twenty nine. But cam Ward actually wasn't completely awful.
He threw for a couple of touchdowns. Tony Pollard had
a huge day. He had one hundred and sixty one
on the ground, especially against that Cleveland Browns defense, which
had been pretty good. Certainly the best win of the
season for the Titans because the other one was that
one where they got lucky against the Arizona Cardinals.

Speaker 2 (01:52:40):
So you know what, only the third worst team in
the NFL. Congratulations Tennessee Titans. I mean, we're keeping a
book right now, we as Yeah, you're asked, but you're
less ass after a win. So congratulations on that, all right.
Cleveland Browns Shador Sanders they have one excuse me, lost
five of their last six games. Even though Shudor did

(01:53:01):
throw for over three hundred and fifty yards and three touchdowns,
it was not enough. Also led the team in rushing,
as Quinn Shawn Judgkins didn't do it much. But the
Cleveland Browns just continue to be a bad team. They've
only won three games all season long, and if you
lose to the Tennessee Titans. You deserve to be down
on this list. You deserve to be the second worst
team in the NFL. You are a factory of sadness

(01:53:25):
and down to the worst team now in the NFL.
They are just two and eleven. They have now lost
seven games in a row, the latest coming against the
Denver Broncos. Ashton Gente continues to be awful. He only
had thirty rushing yards. Gino Smith is one of the
worst quarterbacks in football. Pete Carroll needs to be wheeled

(01:53:48):
out of the stadium and into the old folks homes
because the Las Vegas Raiders are bad. They are the
absolute worst team in the NFL. The fucks more than
anything that I've ever thought before. And now they get
the Eagles and Texans in the next two weeks. Things
are gonna get worse for the old race. You tell

(01:54:10):
me two of the five worst teams in the NFL
the Texas are playing in the future weeks.

Speaker 4 (01:54:14):
Who did I mention? You didn't bring up Arizona. Did
you know why Arizona's on the bottom five?

Speaker 2 (01:54:19):
They're closed. There's a lot of bad teams. Matic, Oh,
all right, I like it. They were up for consideration
they were an honorable mention rotten five. Okay, let's go
back on the phones before we get to the top
of the hour. By the way, all things about the
number seventeen coming up today on believe it or not,
because we are honoring Philip Rivers deciding that he's going

(01:54:40):
to take Daniel Jones number seventeen away from him from
the Colts, which means we should not anticipate Daniel Jones
ever playing for the Colts, at least the rest of
this season, maybe forever. Let's talk to Astana before the
top of the hour, Sonna, what do you got today?

Speaker 5 (01:54:54):
So many amazing I think that.

Speaker 11 (01:55:00):
That that Michigan coach. More man, I think it was
a big setup.

Speaker 2 (01:55:04):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:55:04):
They wanted him out, and.

Speaker 16 (01:55:08):
You know, it's just one of.

Speaker 2 (01:55:09):
Them things like once the snowball.

Speaker 11 (01:55:12):
It just rolled down hill, but they might have saw
a red flag.

Speaker 2 (01:55:16):
But oh man, how was he set up? Did the
did the school make him fornicate with a woman that
wasn't his wife?

Speaker 5 (01:55:26):
First of all, they put in this young hot chick
right with him.

Speaker 2 (01:55:34):
Well you're right, Wait a minute, you guys are going
off the rails here, whether if she's hot or not.
Is not important to the story. I mean I've seen,
I've seen, I've seen. I mean, come on, there'd be
sometimes you'd be like, you know what, I get it.
I've seen Texas six being described with her. But that's

(01:55:55):
a different issue for a different time.

Speaker 9 (01:55:58):
I just don't get you, as you know, for that
same question. Hey, I don't want her working with me.
I don't want her working with me right now, it's
not happening.

Speaker 2 (01:56:09):
So you think that Do you think the university sent
her after him to destroy.

Speaker 5 (01:56:17):
Yes, you know they all quickest downfall because they wanting
to get you anybody else. And that's what I'm saying,
you stay away from. If she wasn't put in that spot,
he wouldn't be in that spot. And now it's like, hey,

(01:56:37):
before I let you go, it's like a version of
Arlington Road. Have you ever seen that movie The Greatest Teaching. Yeah,
he's the greatest teacher. But once they started finding little
quirks about him, everybody in the country started saying, Hey, he.

Speaker 11 (01:56:53):
Was doing this, he was doing that, and I was
worried about him. Now it's just all rolling down.

Speaker 5 (01:56:58):
If you ever watched them movie All the Road with
Bow Bridges, you see what I'm talking.

Speaker 2 (01:57:05):
Is that on Netflix? Yeah, I'll put it in my queue,
thank you. Stun always prevents it rides it. He was
set up. He was set up. I mean now I
think he was set up.

Speaker 4 (01:57:17):
I think if they beat Ohio State and they're in
the playoff, minded, this might not have come to light.

Speaker 2 (01:57:20):
I will buy that. You really think so?

Speaker 11 (01:57:23):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:57:23):
You think things don't get buried with success, covered up,
brushed under the rug, swept aside. Absolutely? What if he
had beaten Texas in a few weeks? The cheese at bowl.
I don't think that's gonna save you. I don't know
semifinal yes, cheese a bowling me? What a mess? And

(01:57:47):
by the way, dude, we're not gonna describe what she
looks like. I can, Hey, is this is Jeff Bridges?
This bow Bridges. This Jeff Bridges, not bow Bridges and
Tim Robbins. Oh, John Cusack, that's a good cut. Arlington
Road nineteen ninety nine. Hm, No, on my to do list,

(01:58:07):
sixty two certified fresh. You you squint your nose of that.
That's not good enough for you. Seventy four percent popcorn meter.
That's the fan vote that's more important to us the
real people. No, I'd rather though people are unreliable. It
is one o'clock on Sports Talk seven.

Speaker 4 (01:58:22):
I we take some more of your phone calls in
the final hour of the show about really anything about
him not being set up? I think would be the
fair thing to say on that. Uh, what else we
got going on? We're still waiting for our astros, big
Mover and what else we gon?

Speaker 12 (01:58:37):
Wait?

Speaker 2 (01:58:37):
Oh, Texans Cardinals? Were you concerned about the injury list?

Speaker 4 (01:58:41):
We'll discuss that all coming up last hour of the
Matt Thomas Show at Ross seven one three seven.

Speaker 1 (01:58:46):
Ninety's The Mac Thomas Show with Ross.

Speaker 2 (01:58:53):
All right, he'll turn back very quickly. We almost had
a terrible catastrophe of a spam call. Boss got a
spam call from a roofing company, and I was gonna
tell him what what? What address I lived on? Yes,
And they wound up getting your mom's address. Yeah, how
do they do that? Don't call me for roofing?

Speaker 9 (01:59:12):
That sucks.

Speaker 4 (01:59:13):
I was gonna be I had a great address from
where you live. I know, will you keep back confirmed
the address? He likes to mess with spam callers, so
I was trying to give you a treat because I
know you like to do it. This is what I
get from being nice. Oh well, please don't show up
to my mother's house, mister Rufer. Mister Rufer, like, Oh
I called you about the inspection.

Speaker 2 (01:59:34):
Yeah, what's time going to be there?

Speaker 4 (01:59:36):
Why am I getting calls about my mom's house because
she's probably in your name's on prop of the house somewhere.
Oh I hope so I don't think so. All right,
let's get to the headlines of the day. Yeah, sure,
why not? Rockets are back in action against the Los
Angeles Clippers. Looking forward to having that call for you
tonight here on Sports Talk seven ninety. Also, the injury

(01:59:57):
port from yesterday will be updated here in the next
couple of hours. But it's worthy of mentioning that yesterday, Uh,
it was rather a lengthy list. Would that be fair
to say?

Speaker 2 (02:00:07):
Yes?

Speaker 9 (02:00:08):
Here it is.

Speaker 2 (02:00:10):
This is Wednesday, And again wednesday doesn't mean everything. Uh,
al Ziz Aushar Heir did not practice, Deniko Autry did
not practice. Trent Brown and Nick Chubb Maurrai Lassiter what
he marks? Sheldon Rankins. So you had two your two.

Speaker 4 (02:00:24):
Main running backs did not practice yesterday. Now things had
obviously changed today. Well, obviously we'll get an update from
our Texans reporter Adam Weser here coming up a little while.

Speaker 2 (02:00:33):
Um, but uh, you know, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (02:00:37):
Thank god it's Arizona and thank god it's Las Vegas week.
After that, That's all I gotta say. Just show up, defense,
shows up. Don't score a lot ten point dogs can win.

Speaker 2 (02:00:50):
Yeah, maybe it's a stay away if you want to spend.
If you're gonna spend some stay away from the skin,
stayway from the line. You have hit the money. I
got the Texans on the money line. It's my lock
of a week. It's a recorder learne, I got the information.
You can do the stock market. He can make my
picks and make some money. I'm Joey Esposito. But yeah,

(02:01:11):
I mean, you know, Jacoby Prissette is five and one
lifetime against the Texans. That sounds honestly low. He lost.
How did that happen?

Speaker 4 (02:01:22):
I think cal probably has nightmares of Jacoby Brissett throwing
passes to t Y Hilton. Probably he's how many different
franchises has he beaten the Texans with? He beat him
with the Patriots? Is that there at the Colts cults
gotta be at.

Speaker 2 (02:01:37):
Least I mean, think about teams he's played for, and
you know, well, you know he's been floating around.

Speaker 4 (02:01:43):
We could you know what, tomorrow will beat Chacoby Brissett
believe it or not? Oh hell yeah, we will be sure.

Speaker 9 (02:01:48):
That's good.

Speaker 4 (02:01:48):
We've already got the idea, Johnathan, right that now, because
we're also forget it Jacoby Brissett, believe it or not,
tomorrow on the Friday Show the Dolphins of the Browns
that he beat the Texans Commanders. No, he's back with
the Patriots last year and then with the Cardinals this year.

Speaker 2 (02:02:03):
I have to look that up. He's carved on a
nice NFL career. Yeah, he's gonna he's going to the
backup Hall of Fame. How big is that backup Hall
of Fame? We've already gone physical for Gary Kubiak, Josh mccownell,
Gary Kopiac. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. But Gary Kubiak's
claim to fame was he never did play. Yeah, but

(02:02:24):
he was a backup for like a decade. Right, But
I mean, don't you want to be a backup to
place to get into the backup Hall of Fame? John
Halway was in front of you. John Hollway didn't get
hurt very much during his NFL career, So maybe that
isn't worthy of a Hall of Fame status, that you
didn't have to actually compete to earn your salary. Yeah,
that's actually put you into the elite rig that money.

(02:02:45):
Who was that dude named Sorgie that used to back
up Jim Sorgie that used to back up Peyton Manning.

Speaker 4 (02:02:51):
Yeah, Jim Sorgie never played Let's see ten years in
the league. Oh no, I'm alright, this is the coaching Sorry,
where's his player?

Speaker 9 (02:03:01):
Red?

Speaker 2 (02:03:02):
Give me this play?

Speaker 4 (02:03:02):
Give me Gary KUBIKX player I want to get can
I guess how many yards he threw for?

Speaker 2 (02:03:07):
Yes? Yeah, tell me how many How many years he's played? Okay,
from eighty three to ninety one, that's nineteen years, four
thousand yards, nineteen hundred and twenty So he played not whoaha?
He threw five TVs in eighty eight WHOAOA In his
nine year NFL career, he threw for one thousand, nine

(02:03:30):
hundred yards. Did he even put the uniform on? Eighty
percent of the time?

Speaker 4 (02:03:33):
He only started five games ever, Yeah, he only started
five games. Ever, I put Cody Carlson the Hall of Fame. Now,
he did back up war Moon and did start a
couple of games when Warren. So isn't he supposed to start? Yeah,
he did start, and then he got hurt, and then
Warren came in and took over. Warn had some bad years.
He made the Hall of Fame and all that. But
oh there were some ugly times on and off the

(02:03:57):
field for Warren here in Houston. Don't forget about that.
So Cody gets his opportunity, he gets hurt. Warren comes
back in and never takes and never relinquishes the job
h Hall. Even Bucky Richson played more that felt like
the Cody Carlson did. Bucky played for a year when
the technic the Oilers sucked.

Speaker 2 (02:04:15):
Me really bad.

Speaker 4 (02:04:16):
I went ten and four with the Oilers in ninety
three and threw twenty one touchdowns and twenty one picks.

Speaker 2 (02:04:22):
That's very mad.

Speaker 4 (02:04:23):
Defense was Uscious and Ray Childress and William Fuller and
Lamar Lathan, Dwight Andrea O'neilshawan Jones is the Elishman by McDowell.
Was it like eight Pro bowlers they had or something
like that, don't get me started. I loved ROSSI as
a rickety old Marcus Allen. I was a young sports
broadcaster and an Olders fan. I was living my best

(02:04:46):
life until that Buffalo game. I thought, you can say,
until that Kansas City game. No Buffalo Buffalo game.

Speaker 2 (02:04:53):
They weren't there.

Speaker 4 (02:04:54):
It was a worse loss. But the team wasn't supposed
to win at all. They wrapped five touchdowns. Yeah, they
weren't supposed to win. That was not I don't care
if you're supposed to win anything. When you're a five touchdowns,
you're supposed to win the game. But wasn't the ninety
three team taught of like, hey, they could win it all. Yeah,
they got to buy. We don't get buys in Houston
for anything.

Speaker 2 (02:05:14):
No, we didn't.

Speaker 9 (02:05:16):
We don't.

Speaker 2 (02:05:16):
We didn't play the three thirty Saturday game when the
Olders we were going twelve and four. Sorry, Matt. They lost.
Now they're gone. Now they're in Tennessee. Like, well, if
you don't build the studio now, warn Moon's handing his
number one jersey to cam Ward. We're gonna move the
team to Jacksonville. The Evention moved to Nashville or Memphis. First,

(02:05:36):
Amy Curnks Trunk, let's move on something more positive. Okay,
take a break. We can't you know what I'm gonna
do something positive. We told you really quickly yesterday about

(02:05:59):
how tray It was mad about the nial deal and
how you need you to thank you. Well, come to
find out the player didn't know that money was from him.
There was no possible way to thank him that person
because there was no record of connecting money to send
player directly. So I came he cut the check for
the specific person player. How does this work? I don't
know how any of this works. The player in question

(02:06:20):
did not know who funded his nil deal, only that
it was coming from the team's collective. So they went
to the collective to get the money. They didn't know.
It's called the Men of Westwood. The Men of Westwood. Yes,
that's Hoidy Tody for paying athletes. Yea, so all the
men of Westwood. We're gonna fund this crappie football program. Yeah,
the Cougar is den and we'll be holding your cash

(02:06:41):
for you to come play at the University of Houston.

Speaker 4 (02:06:43):
So we can go on nine and three and eight
and four. Used to they die for eight nine and three,
eight and four, Oh, there go, good good luck. By
the way they're going to I thought eight and four
gets you fired at you of aged.

Speaker 2 (02:06:54):
Somebody once said, well, that was a stupid thing to say,
because eight and four I'll cherish eight and four, wasn't it?
Wasn't it the president that said that.

Speaker 4 (02:07:03):
That was four coaches ago to Major app whys still
in front of the show? Yes, I love Major all
this literally love Major. Speaking of impropriety relationship, what he said,
stop seging, I'm not seging. But he had his own
issues too, and he was able to bounce back from that.

Speaker 2 (02:07:26):
Yes, where is he now? Uh? South Alabama? I want
to say what?

Speaker 9 (02:07:31):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:07:32):
Yeah, he's the head coach there. Yeah. How'd they do?

Speaker 4 (02:07:34):
I don't think they're both eligible? They went four to
eight this year, they won the Salute to Veterans Bowl.
Last year went seven and six.

Speaker 2 (02:07:46):
So when did he? When did win?

Speaker 4 (02:07:47):
Did Major Apple White play at South Alabama? Mascot is Jaguars?
Look at this guy, I've done a basketball game there,
so I cheating?

Speaker 2 (02:07:55):
Should you have h one by? It was hbu okay,
I muld that could have been tight. I think that's toughing.
I remember won the game, but that's own the here.

Speaker 11 (02:08:02):
No, there.

Speaker 4 (02:08:05):
Mobile a lovely place, okay, really nice small town, the
original home of the Marty Girl.

Speaker 2 (02:08:11):
That's true.

Speaker 4 (02:08:11):
A lot of people don't know that. Believe there was
a New Orleanian who got very upset with me for
saying that. And then they looked it up and I
was right. Was this smish morning?

Speaker 11 (02:08:18):
No?

Speaker 2 (02:08:20):
Oh bower bees, no comment? Okay? Uh so when did
when did Major play at Texas? Ninety nine to three ish?

Speaker 4 (02:08:30):
So I was in my late twenties. But when those
of you that don't know ninety eight to one? Okay,
so late twenties, mid mid to late twenties. When you
followed Texas football, whether you were a fan or not,
you couldn't love just him, No excuse me, you couldn't
love Chris Simms and Major Appleoy you were one of

(02:08:52):
the other. Yes, Well, about eighty eighty twenty it felt
any more Team Apple White than they were today. There
were Chris Sims truthers because he actually wasn't that bad.

Speaker 2 (02:09:05):
Well, here's the thing.

Speaker 4 (02:09:06):
He was such a highly recruited guy that you got
the number one quarterback of the country who was living
in Rutgers New Jersey, were his dad was playing for
the Giants, or atleast was finishing up his career. That
came to Austin, Texas play football. Yeah, there was a
number of factors in play. First of all, everyone loves
the backup. Everyone loves an underdog story. When you got
the six foot.

Speaker 2 (02:09:25):
Five cannon front arm son of a quarterback, son of
an NFL quarterback. And then the other guy's a three
to two or three star recruit from Baton Rouge, Louisiana,
five foot eleven, looks like he walked off the training staff, floppy,
curly red hair, like he was a sitcom guy. Yeah,

(02:09:45):
that's a great, great underdog story. Good man, look at
this guy, he's played with heart. So fast forward to
beyond his playing career. Tom Herman gets the job as
the head football coach at the University of Houston and
it's a big poppin circle. That's because Tom Herman was
the offensive coordinator at Ohio State who won the national championship.
And he's like, yeah, I'm here and I'm bringing my

(02:10:06):
offensive coordinator and you may know him as Major apple White.
I'm like, Major freaking apple White.

Speaker 11 (02:10:14):
I was I.

Speaker 4 (02:10:16):
Fanboyd I was like, I don't know you Tom Herman
very well, but I know Major apple White, and he
was really good and helped the Cougars go on to
the Peach Bowl and all that kind of good stuff
and won all those games. And then Tom left, and
the administration University Uston said, you know what, We'll stay
here with Major and we wish you nothing but the
very best, and if you don't win ten games, you're
gonna be going pretty quick.

Speaker 2 (02:10:36):
And he was gone pretty quick. But loved getting to
know him, very very sly sense of humor. He and
I appreciated the same team. We were big fans of Ozark,
so we would text back each other back and forth
to talk about the various Ozark episodes. I've always wished
the very best. Seems like a good enough guy.

Speaker 4 (02:10:57):
I don't know if he carried himself as to me
being a head coat in a major program, because again,
it takes us a different kind of demeanor. And obviously
his relationship with Ed Oliver did not end the way
that it probably should have should have ended.

Speaker 2 (02:11:08):
It is what it is.

Speaker 4 (02:11:10):
But uh, he's been able to recuperate Knocker, couperate, recoup
his career and now he's coaching at South Alabama. Hmm,
well there that I thought. You know, there're four and eight.
Hopefully he can turn things around there.

Speaker 2 (02:11:23):
But he was a program. He was an assistant in
Alabama for a short period of time, he was the
I believe he was the the OC at Alabama. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:11:30):
Did he ever go back to Texas Is in a
coaching role at all? He was a ga there, Yeah,
okay when he first came back, but I don't think
he went. That's where he started his coaching. But I
guarantee you if Major apple White walks around at a
bar in Austin, I bet he's still very much recognized
and beloved. He's getting drink from me whatever he wants,
whether that be ginger ale or something else. Well, not nothing,
super top show for relax. Major the house brings and

(02:11:52):
might give you eighteen year like, come on, it's within res.
You didn't want a nation, We're gonna cap it at
seventy five bucks.

Speaker 2 (02:11:59):
Now Ricky william walked in, you you'd be buying the
heavy ste So Vince Young, Vince Young, he gets you
a bottle of whatever you want.

Speaker 4 (02:12:05):
He wouldn't order, he'd be late for whatever it was.
He'd be late, but he still drink when he got there.
That's actually true. That's true.

Speaker 2 (02:12:12):
All right. He got that nightclub tussle, knocked out at
a nightclub. Yeah, him. And you know, I tell you what.

Speaker 4 (02:12:19):
There have been some great players in Texas that lose fights.
Peterson loses fights.

Speaker 5 (02:12:24):
He wasn't.

Speaker 2 (02:12:24):
He was at Oklahoma. Yeah, but he was a Texas
guy from Palestine. Palestine. Now you gotta say Palestine, Maddie, Yeah,
he from Palistine Texas. He got a strong grip.

Speaker 4 (02:12:38):
I had never been scared of an opposing player as
a Texas Longhorns fan more than I was scared of
Adrian Peterson.

Speaker 2 (02:12:46):
That includes Reggie Bush. I was like, Reggie Bush, whatever,
this ain't Fresno State, Brother. I wasn't that worried. Did
Adrian Peterson put the fear of God into me? You
weren't afraid of Matt Lioner, No, he was good, though.
You weren't afraid of Corey Publick, who former Aim quarterbacks
s or whatever. Bucky Richardson, dude, Stephen McGee, I didn't like.
But I what's scared of him? Ryan Tannehill? Oh stop,

(02:13:09):
I think I'm done with Adrian.

Speaker 4 (02:13:11):
Peterson, I'm stopping at him or ready for that one
year Adrian Peterson was he was a modern marvel. He
should have won the Heisman the year was he was
a freshman. He didn't win it because he was a freshman.
Did Texas we're cool to him a little bit? Or
was Texas he he mac Brown brought him to a
Texas OU game when they lost like sixty three to fourteen. Well,

(02:13:35):
we're gonna have a great family atmosphere over here, and
we're all about love and family and Adrian Peters Adrian
Peterson like, I want to win. I don't care about
this this Kumba mac Brown family. Sally's gonna make me
some cobbler.

Speaker 2 (02:13:46):
I want to win. Is that one of those Josh
Hypel games? Exactly?

Speaker 4 (02:13:50):
So Adrian Peterson saw what happened and he was like,
I think I'm gonna go to Oklahoma.

Speaker 2 (02:13:55):
That's funny. This guy's talking about being my friend and
being to my family and getting his ass. I'm gonna
come here. It's dangerous because let's say that you do want.
For instance, I'll give you a small example. University of
Houston probably our biggest card of the year to cell
that was against Texas Tech. So you want to bring
your kids to the game that's got the most game
you lost that game? Does that?

Speaker 4 (02:14:15):
I don't think it directly relates to it. Maybe twenty
years ago it might have. I'll tell you this. After
that Texas Texas A and M game, Texas landed two
big recruits. Like literally that weekend Coincident's probably not you
want to see results.

Speaker 2 (02:14:31):
It's week to week, But do you do kids really
get affected by what they just saw right in front
of them. Is an eighteen year old affected by short
term thinking, how are you serious? How about this? I
can flip it on the other direction and go, hey,
we need you, we need you, come here. We're gonna
win this game.

Speaker 4 (02:14:50):
You could say that if it's close, but when it's
sixty three to fourteen, well, it's like, for instance, my
daughter's volleyball school and I can't help these guys Rhode
Island and I.

Speaker 2 (02:14:58):
Have a good year this year, And I said, Carly,
go up there and win those games for them. Yeah
that's good. So oh, so what's up with the what
are they in the A ten? In the A ten?

Speaker 4 (02:15:08):
Okay, what's the what's the world? I'm volleyball looking like
not a great sum that will put my keyboard now,
don't you know what?

Speaker 2 (02:15:15):
Go? Carly?

Speaker 4 (02:15:16):
Can you please let me know when a link is
posted so I can get like a Carly Thomas hoodie
or something.

Speaker 2 (02:15:20):
Hey, nil will be available. That's what I'm saying. Anybody
want to nil? We're gonna figure ot o her jersey
and I get her about one frappuccino's worth the nil money.
But it'd be something well get her some uh, because
I mean if I buy the hoodie for let's say
I buy the I just make up a number eighty
dollars hoodie, how much that would go to? Do you
have any idea?

Speaker 12 (02:15:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:15:37):
I would like all eighty to go to to young
Carly Thomas.

Speaker 4 (02:15:40):
So I guess the question would be do you would
you give the money to the rode out Rhode Island
Collective or would you give it to her directly?

Speaker 2 (02:15:45):
Can you in?

Speaker 4 (02:15:46):
Alvin Moore? Vinmo you now I don't trust you? Actually
hear that doesn't trust me? What eight sports talk seven
AUTI with a word for up can take your agent's fees.
I was gonna say crazy for that'd be really weird.
Let's talk about uptown applying your pair. Our buddy Pastor zero.

(02:16:15):
Pastor is with the Saint Jude's Hospital, folks, and Pastor
and I made a roady to Memphis a couple of
years ago and saw it firsthand. First of all, good afternoon,
Thanks for having you being a part of this and
us get together for this once a year, which is
a great worthwhile event.

Speaker 14 (02:16:31):
It's such a pleasure to be here and to represent
Saint Jude and to get a chance to talk to
you guys.

Speaker 4 (02:16:35):
And he's he's a big fan of ours. He'll text
us during the course of the show. Well not me,
but that's okay. No, no, he likes you too, and
he likes mee more, but he likes you someone as well.

Speaker 2 (02:16:43):
That's fine.

Speaker 4 (02:16:44):
First of all, phone number is one eight hundred and
five eight eight one four three three, and you're looking
for partners and hope nineteen dollars a month, which is
basically as you guys been talking about, just a cup
of coffee for you know, a week or so.

Speaker 2 (02:16:56):
Let's donate. Let's help some kids out. And the great
part of it is when you your kids join the
Saint Jude's program, we're talking about their medical care, their homes,
their families, their food. It is a so much stress
in their life. You're trying to add as little stress
as possible here. That's right.

Speaker 14 (02:17:13):
When when a child face this cancer, you know that
they didn't ask for they didn't sign up for it,
and from one moment to another, family's life gets turned
upside down. And because of a place like Saint Jude,
they don't have to worry about treatment, travel, housing, or food.
But we can only do that because of listeners like yours, right,
because the folks that say, hey, you know what, I've
got sixty three cents a day, I've got nineteen dollars

(02:17:33):
a month to be able to share with a family
that it feels my family. I'd love for somebody to
be able to come come in alongside of me and
not just give me hope, but help me in a
moment of really deep need.

Speaker 11 (02:17:44):
Right.

Speaker 2 (02:17:45):
And so that's what our doctors are doing.

Speaker 14 (02:17:46):
Our researchers are putting together the treatment protocols that help
these kids and their darkest moment have a chance at life.

Speaker 2 (02:17:53):
How many kids do you typically see, and maybe you
don't know this, for in a good calendar year, how many?

Speaker 14 (02:17:58):
Yeah, yeah, so we get we have eighty five hundred
active patients and we do about two hundred and fifty
patients a day. The hospital's got about ninety beds, and
then we've got four housing facilities within about a five
mile radius, and so the patient will come in, take
the bus, go into the hospital, get their work done,
then go home. Our friends that Domino's built a new
village you saw at the Domino's Village right across the street,

(02:18:20):
So our patients literally walk through a bridge and get
the treatment that they need and then get to get
to go back to a one, two or three bedroom
apartment so mom and dad can have a place to work.
So you know, it disrupts family life, right, I mean,
it just we can't get past that. But we're trying
to make that load just a little lighter.

Speaker 4 (02:18:38):
And the best part about this is, and those people
that are listening to us right now understand is that
if you have a child with cancer and you want
to be there for them, sometimes work doesn't allow that
to happen, and you, on a temporary basis can help
make sure they've got accommodations, food, shelter so they can
be with their children.

Speaker 2 (02:18:59):
As much as possible.

Speaker 14 (02:19:00):
That's right, I mean we have uh, it's it's the
small details that makes Saint Jude so unique.

Speaker 2 (02:19:04):
Right.

Speaker 14 (02:19:05):
We've got uh, we got a day in which we
celebrate siblings. Right because because what siblings see their other,
their their their brother or sister getting so much attention,
we do a day to celebrate them.

Speaker 2 (02:19:15):
In the spring, we do a.

Speaker 14 (02:19:18):
Quick uh what's it called when you have a at
the end of high school at Prada, we do a prom.

Speaker 2 (02:19:24):
We do a prom day. We've got stretch limos.

Speaker 14 (02:19:27):
Our child services folks set up a great uh, great event,
just ways to lighten the load so that you know,
of course you're getting your treatment throughout the day, but
life continues.

Speaker 2 (02:19:37):
To go on pastor zero with us here on Sports
Talk seven ninety for our Saint Jude radiothon right now
you can text kids to six two six to six two,
that's kids to six two, six to six to become
a partner and hope.

Speaker 4 (02:19:51):
And I'm I'm very interested in the research angle of
it too, because obviously, you know, it happens, and these
kids need to be taken care of. But the preventative
measure that we you know, you guys give us these
points and talking about Saint Jude helping invent treatments that
have raised a survival rate for children with cancer, where
four out of five children can now survive.

Speaker 2 (02:20:13):
I mean that to me is huge as well.

Speaker 4 (02:20:15):
Not only are you guys taken care of these kids,
but the can you just talk more about the research
part of this?

Speaker 14 (02:20:19):
Yeah, I mean just imagine back in nineteen sixty two
when the hospital open its stores, a Q lymphoblastic leukemia
was the most common form of child cancer and it
only had a four percent survival rate.

Speaker 2 (02:20:30):
Today is up to ninety four percent. Right, So how
do you bridge that gap?

Speaker 14 (02:20:34):
You breach it through research, You reach it through treatment,
you breach it through figuring out ways that not it
doesn't just apply to one kid, but how do how
do we make it to where more kids can have
this treatment?

Speaker 6 (02:20:45):
Right?

Speaker 14 (02:20:45):
And so we we created we create the protocol, and
we know that every kid can't come to Saint Jude.

Speaker 2 (02:20:50):
So what do we do.

Speaker 14 (02:20:51):
We share that protocol locally so that a child that
walks into whatever hospital it is at the local level
can have a chance to have a Saint Jude protocost
Singey treatment.

Speaker 2 (02:21:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:21:01):
So that though those of these donations are helping the children,
and they're helping try to eliminate this.

Speaker 2 (02:21:06):
That's right.

Speaker 14 (02:21:06):
I mean, so when we when we talk about research,
we're trying to figure out whether it's a tumor, whether
it's whether it's in through your blood, whether it's a
cancer within your bones, whatever it may be. We're trying
to move that percentage up. Whether it starts at twenty percent,
sixty percent, you want to move it up so that

(02:21:26):
you can have that aspect of it shared Rossie.

Speaker 4 (02:21:29):
I was in a research building. It's not very sexy,
but you go into these rooms. You want a sexy
research building? No, but you what you do want is
you want you go in these rooms in the walls
of modules and calculations, right, And I mean it's really
what you would think it would be. It's a true
multi level laboratory. It's that actually was the low key

(02:21:54):
to me, most impressive thing is that the people working
forty to fifty hours a week that are just trying
to figure out a cure.

Speaker 2 (02:22:01):
And some of our doctors are on both sides of
the of the hall.

Speaker 14 (02:22:04):
Right, You're going to do the research and then you
can walk across and do that research, do that treatment,
do what you're finding out with that patient, right, because
not every we're seeing the most difficult cases. We've got
clinical trials happening, right, and so we want to be
sure that our doctors and our researchers have the funds,
the ability to do the work that takes months and

(02:22:24):
years to get done and be able to apply it
to the next patient.

Speaker 2 (02:22:28):
Have I know Marvel Thomas is still involved. I see
the commercials all the time. Have you ever met her before?
I met her once briefly. She was sweet, you got
no stories.

Speaker 4 (02:22:38):
That was my first five year old crush, honestly because
I used to watch old shows that girl on TBS
when I was a kid, and she had this wavy
nineteen sixty eight hair, and she was I mean, she
was a crush. But her and her dad, obviously, if
not for them, there is no Saint Jude Children's Hospital,
That's right.

Speaker 2 (02:22:55):
That's right.

Speaker 14 (02:22:56):
Jennifer Aniston, she was Rachel and friends. This Marvel was
her mom and friends. And so yeah, absolutely, I mean,
you know Danny Thomas, I'll give you the story. Danny
Thomas was a struggling entertainer. He wanted to have a
career in acting. It wasn't going very well. Right, He
made a promise to seeing you, the patron, saying of
lost causes, said, if you'll show me my way in life,

(02:23:18):
I'll build you a shrine. He got a call to
be a singing toothbrush on the radio. How commercial.

Speaker 2 (02:23:25):
Okay, that's how I got my start, too, toilet brush.
You guys have got places. He went places, and he
kept his promise. He built his shrine, he built this hospital,
and now since nineteen sixty two, families haven't had to
worry about a bill when their kid is set it.

Speaker 4 (02:23:41):
It's just so awesome. Again, I would invite any of
you that are in Memphis to go visit and take
a tour. Are you a lot of the public to
do that?

Speaker 17 (02:23:48):

Speaker 4 (02:23:48):
