Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Soulsby.

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

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Sewn Salisbury, the USC Troupes, longtime friend, Shawn Salisbury.

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

Speaker 5 (00:22):
Another day in Paradise. I think I'm gonna be negative
Nelly today. I think I'm gonna go four hours of negative.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Is negative, just negative all the way around. Okay, Astro's done, done,
cancel the parade. Texans won't win another game in September. Okay,
I'm banning fracking. Let's not do that.

Speaker 5 (00:41):
Okay, Oh dude, I don't know what else can we do?
Negative Delly about somebody in Sugarland won the Mega millions.
I thought it was I started thinking that I go
through sugar Land. Did I stop there and get one
at that station? I'm thinking, come on now, for eight
hundred mill Texas, somebody finally wanted that wasn't in Pennsylvania,

(01:02):
New Jersey or California. Yeah, congrats to them, sugar Land,
hide your ticket because I'm onto you. Congrats to them.
I'm always grateful that somebody else wins, even though it's
not me. I roote for somebody winning. But you know
what had been nice that ain't underd mill.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Would have been.

Speaker 5 (01:20):
You know, I was coming in here telling you what
eight hundred Millie thought I wouldn't tell you.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
But you know, so I think I'm all. I think
I'm going negative Nelly.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
Okay, don't you remember that last week you said you
were on one like it, but you just you just
wanted to be yeah, right, negative?

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Hey, So maybe I'll just go negative Nelly. Yeah today, Yeah,
I was about the dork on TV. There's plenty of them. Yeah,
John Hopkins or whatever his name is, what was his name?
Who the guy on.

Speaker 5 (01:50):
It's what you're talking about, Danny Parkins Parking, Danny Yeah, man,
tough on.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
I was just being a hater that day. That's fine.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
So do you think negative Nelly is a good way
to go sometimes on the.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Radio some time or probably not?

Speaker 5 (02:01):
No, No, you don't think so, just living that, living
that we have any negative Nelly callers in? After the
Astros got beat four to three, little hey, little small
ball punt action by.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Three in a row.

Speaker 5 (02:11):
Yeah, I wanted to move some people over. Dog end
up winning it. Well, thank god the Mariners suck. Yeah
they got beat too, so stays what at four and
a half? Yeah, that we're at so yeah, they they
just can't. The Mariners cannot win when George Kirby pitches. Yeah,
or hey man, he's pretty good. See he could be
a part of our te Tuesday.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
What would he be? Yeah, absolutely would be? What he what?

Speaker 6 (02:37):
Hey y?

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yeah, Jorgey Kirby. Yeah. I uh, no, I don't have enough.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
I mean I'm not a big energy wasted on negative
nelly stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (02:47):
No, unless it negative fits right, sometimes it's got to
fit right.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
But uh, it's it's a good day, man. Astros two
for seventeen with runners in the scoring position last night. Issue,
that's a problem, right, Yeah, Paenia oh for two, Bregman
over three? Uh with the runners of scorn is that
they left thirteen on and actually, uh, the only hitter

(03:13):
for the Astros that got hits with runners in scoring position,
Jose al Tuove was two for two. Everybody else over Myers, Penia, Bregman, Gammel, Hayward, McCormick, Tucker, Alvarez, Diez,
Kartini not ideal. Chas McCormick banged up his wrist, He's
gonna have some imaging done. So there's that as well.

(03:34):
They went into twelve innings. Man, Yeah, it's a record.
It's a good run last night till the end, three
bunts in a row and they couldn't figure it out defensively. Crazy.
Why can't we field bunts? Why do we not know
what we're doing.

Speaker 5 (03:48):
With the baseball. It's hard to field buns when you
never see bunts. You never practice bunchs, you know what
I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (03:54):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 5 (03:55):
Man, normally you know, hey, man, David, back to back
home runs or the Astros hid back to back home runs.
The wind, you got beat by, you got bunted out
of the wind, got bunted. I think it's time to
bring make Bunny a big part of baseball again.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
So you're saying you want to make money great again.

Speaker 5 (04:10):
Yeah, And I'm telling you right that guy's on third,
one out, if I'm yourn, if I got him, or
like Judge at the plate or Soto you know, one
of those guys.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Tied bunt mm hmm. But yeah, why not.

Speaker 5 (04:22):
But as a matter of fact, I'd do it with
two strikes, two outs to two strikes, two outs, yeah,
and go after like a hard slider.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
So there you go.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
I'll tell you one thing the ace apparently can do.
But I know and they and this team has been
used to hitting some home runs recently, right, Yeah, I
mean they can drive the baseball. But they pulled the
old Oki though, because what they did, all right, couldn't.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Hold it off. You'd been nice to stave them off.

Speaker 5 (04:56):
You've got a win to get to five and a half,
then would you bet the ten thousand the one in
the division.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
You're still not cozy with that, No, I'm really not not.
When you see two for seventeen with runners in scort position,
that's kind of a negative Nancy negative Nelly. Who Who's
who do you think is more negative? I don't think
that's negative. I think it's just being uh realist, realist, Yeah,
like a realist. Who do you think he is more negative?
Nancy or Nelly?

Speaker 5 (05:19):
I mean if you're negative somebody, because oh you're negative, Nancy,
you're negative Nelly?

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Who's more negative? You do?

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (05:25):
Nancy is probably she's got some Karen for sure with her,
But she's Nancy.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
So that's it. She's a double edged Because I think
of Nelly, I think of Nelly. That's a you think,
not Nelly Fortato. I'm thinking of Nelly. I think from
Saint Louis No. I think when I think of Nelly,
I think of in this way. I think of like
about an eighty four year old old school blue hair.
You know, maybe it's you know, my buddy used to

(05:50):
call why do we call him?

Speaker 5 (05:53):
But why is it that the hair kind of turns
blue as we get older, Like you know, it's like
in your eighties or nineties, that gray kind of looks bluish. Yeah,
buddy of mine called him slow breathers. Okay, that's so wrong.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
It's so wrong.

Speaker 5 (06:04):
Hey, hey, all you slow breathers and somebody's healthy. No,
but if somebody's healthy as me, because they're ninety, they're
breathe a little slower, right. But I have a Nelly
at about eighty four, whitish, bluish, and I'm talking about
a grandma and who's spicy at hell. You know, those
grandkids are afraid of death there, but they love her
because she's like, get get outside and play.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
You know.

Speaker 5 (06:26):
And then all of a sudden, just like a curmudgeon,
the female curmudgeon. That's how I figure, Oh, you're just negative, Nelly.
You know, Nelly feels that like an old school name.
Doesn't it like a name that your grandma great grandma
would have, right, But I mean, but she ain't breathing slow,
she's after it right, slow breathing.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
That's what he called her. What does he said? What
are you talking about? You know?

Speaker 5 (06:46):
Because people, oh the old blue hair is talking about
like when you see your parents or whatever, you or
you we all and then a buddy of us slow breathed.
Those are slow breathers. I'm like, what do you mean. Oh,
they're older, so that just started to breathe a little
longer than you are.

Speaker 8 (07:03):
Dude.

Speaker 5 (07:04):
Oh I know, but it's funny. Yeah, so you're going.
Nancy seems like she's the mother in the neighborhood. Oh yeah,
she calls. She calls the homeowners association fee on you
all the time. You hang a flag, she's mad. Yep,
you mow your long a little shorter. She's pissed off
you leave your trash can out for an hour after
after it's empty. She'sway taking a picture. Oh yeah, oh yeah,

(07:27):
she's would have sent it in, Yeah, for sure, and
gives you the look like she's just disgusted with you.
You just pulled up the trash can. They just left
and she can't believe it.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
I think the craziest thing about Hoa is like that
actually happens. When I had my home. I remember I
got back from a work triph. It does happen. Trash
day was literally the day prior, and I had gotten
home that morning. I was backing into my driveway and
there was a woman in a car that had pulled up,
got out and started taking pictures, and I said, can
I help you? I was unloading my luggage. I said
can I help you? She's like, oh, I'm with your neighborhood,

(07:59):
ho A. And I was like, why are you taking pictures?
She said, oh, because your trash cans route. And I said,
trash day was yesterday and I was traveling for work.
She's like, oh, well, can you They need to be hidden.
I said, I just got home, I said, stopped taking
pictures of my house? And what do you want to do?

Speaker 5 (08:12):
Standard This ain't I dream a Jeanie where I can
blink figure my nose and it goes away. She had
blue hair, Oh, but she wasn't a blue hair because
blue hair these days is completely blue hair. These days
it's blue on purpose, right, blue hair in the old
days he's just getting a little older and got more wisdom.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Correct these blue hairs these days?

Speaker 5 (08:30):
Oh yeah, homeowners is so you want to find the
worst in people. HOA deal with those people and the
people who are tied in with them. You know, the
local neighbors. Who's the hawk? Yeah, for sure, flies around
your hair and helicopters your house. That tree is not
supposed to be that. I cannot believe they put their
fence two inches higher.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Than the rest. They're not allowed to do that when
I first moved. Hoa's and property taxes suck. Yeah, they
do suck, horrible and highly overrated. Yeah, bs man.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
And I sometimes they'll put the HOA on you said,
wait a minute'm looking around. I see trash where you
guys over in the area where your guys are cleaning
up every day.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Can we ho a your ass? Yeah? Negative, Nancy Nellie.
The doubling down right. The best part is like you
you pay h o A fees uh, and then you
you like look around your neighborhood, like you said, trash
in certain places and think like things like that.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
It's therefore, like you go on a walk in three
straight weeks, it's in the same spot. So you know
something and watch and see if somebody will clean it up.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Where does my h O A money go? Like, you
can't hire a crew to to landscape better, but they'll
sweat your nuts to the cost. Come home. Why do
we not have millions of dollars worth of Christmas decorations up?
Because that's where h O A. In the in the
in the contract, it says during the holidays that we're
gonna be lit up like you know, nobody's business.

Speaker 5 (09:44):
And then they're like they're mowing of lawns and grass
like you on mind mode. But the beltway behind me,
you're supposed to mote. That thing grows up to where
it's like wait, yeah, excuse me again. But don't worry. Ah,
but they will sweat you, dude, and they'll ask for
and they will be on it. Yeah h o A.
Matter of fact, I do everything I can just to
piss them off. I don't want to trade, you know,

(10:04):
I'm John kitting. Just a challenge. Well, you're supposed to
call before you before you you know you do the uh,
your your your your porch or your patio concrete. You
know you gotta stamp and your stand so stupid. Here's
what I am with h o a's And if they're listening,
I'm gonna say louder. Yeah, I'm a beg forgiveness rather
than ask permission. Oh no, I thought the fact, well

(10:25):
you're gonna take it down.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
I don't think that can happen. Yeah, you put it
in a pool? Did you ask for No? I didn't
know what were supposed to do. We're gonna have to.

Speaker 5 (10:33):
You know, my permission is all the taxes and stuff
I'm paying to put it back.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah, just what's this small? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (10:41):
H o A?

Speaker 5 (10:42):
So that is negative h A. Feel well when you
hear h o A, what's first thing kinds your mind?
It's not good. No, it's not. It sucks. Yeah, I
hate h's terrible. And property taxes they don't they charge
you but don't follow their own lead. No, not at all.
So that's that's so we're gonna be negative Nancy today.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
We're done.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
Now, we're done, okay, Yeah, well, I mean once we
get to the bunting, it'll probably negative up a little bit.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
But they bunched three times in a row.

Speaker 5 (11:05):
Yeah, ugly man, that catch baseball sometimes too, Sometimes you
gotta play small ball, Brian. Yeah, Well, let that be
a lesson to your kids. We do. We work on
one coverages.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Oakland Athletics take down the Astros four to three in
extra innings. Let's take a look at Spencer Arraghetty's outing
tough one last night, but Astro still lead the division.
We'll discuss the next right here on Sports Talk seven
to eighty.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
Back to the Sean Salisbury Show on Sports Talk seven
ninety Sportland, Your Astros, your Rockets, your voice.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Some early matchups between the Texans and Bears is coming
Sunday night. Astros fall to those Oakland Athletics four to three.
They still they're still up four and a half in
the division because the Mariners lost to the padres No.
Fernando Tatis hit a bomb and that's UH in that game.

(12:06):
George Kirby falling to eleven and eleven on the season.
They can't win when he pitches UH for the Stros.
Spencer ragedy last night, six and two thirds, inning, seven hits,
two hour, runs, one walk, seven k's ninety seven pitches,
triple Did you bet on uh? Did you bet on
Spencer air Gay last night? Not so? Remember I told
I told you, I told you I was around six

(12:28):
or seven Imber and Sean said he'd take the over
and he got it, but the ash was lost, so
got his ass, so take it. It's just, you know,
it doesn't.

Speaker 5 (12:38):
Matter the dubs all that they didn't get the dub,
they didn't know they did not eat a w last night.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Don't do that because I can do that.

Speaker 5 (12:50):
You can visualize it. Yeah, nasty Vigli. I'm looking dead
ass at you. Yeah, No, I'm talking about when they're
listening on the radio. Yeah, being you know, eating a dub.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yeah, not a good visual, yeah, but she but that's
what you gotta do. You gotta field bunts. Oh yeah.
Isn't it crazy that major leaguers, the best of the
best of the best struggle with bunt coverages.

Speaker 5 (13:12):
You can't do the simplest of the simplest of the simplest.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
I mean, at least when you're growing up. You work
on it all the time.

Speaker 5 (13:17):
Yeah, and then they'll make a play that's like going
backhanded in the hole and make it throw, you know,
falling back and get a guy out.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
But hard to feel, just a normal square up. Butnt
you know we uh my, see how my fourteen U
bandidos team this past summer when we were in Florida
making a hell of a run in this big ass
National Championship tournament. We bunted three times in a row
with my three hole, my four hole, and my five
hole scored. We had runners at third every time. You
can't do that. Brian bases loaded and they couldn't field

(13:45):
a bunt, and I'm thinking, okay, well, you know these
are fourteen year old kids. They should be able to
field these buns, and they couldn't do it. They had
no idea what to do. And then I look at
the major league level last night and I'm like, what
in the hell is going on?

Speaker 5 (13:55):
Bron We don't buy it anymore. I don't want your
team to buntzy. I know it is such an elementary thing,
it becomes a big issue and has I guess when
nobody's doing thumb something. The trend is not to actually
practice it much, not only on the offensive side of it,
but defending it.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
You think, God, it's gonna happen twice.

Speaker 5 (14:16):
You know, when we get they're gonna bun us, we're
gonna be in a situation where I got to field
it a handful of time. Honestly, isn't it a hand.
How many times the first baseman going to handle a
bunt during the year, now, uh, twice, three times?

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Maybe? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (14:28):
Yeah, And if that's if you're trying to get it
down the first baseline, move a guy and make the
pitcher hopefully come off and have the field it or
the first basement field it and make a throw and
wheel and get him out right. I mean, you'd think
in the old school days, well, you may have to
field that twenty five thirty times a season.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
How many when's that?

Speaker 5 (14:45):
How many times you watching highlights to show the first
basement fielding and wheeling. I'm not talking about the swinging
butnt I'm talking about the legacket, butt squares around sacrifice
and they get it exactly where they want, but you
can't field it.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Yeah, they're gonna get how many attempts here?

Speaker 5 (14:58):
See, I guess you're doing the the math and saying, well,
and I can spend too much time in spring training
working on fielding a bunch. I know they do a
little bit, but put it this way, it's not pretty
execution very often.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
No, no, it's not at all. And we saw it
last night. Seven seven ees get out to the phone lines.
Brent welcome in.

Speaker 10 (15:20):
Hey, thanks Shuman Uh September the even Wow, just so
much heartache and heartfelt things that go on in this
day and there's just a great thing that like sports.

Speaker 7 (15:40):
And it's a great entity. Uh provides.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Relief and uh you know.

Speaker 7 (15:52):
It provides like you know, distraction.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
And escape from reality right right, and and then you
know what, go Texas, Thank you, Thank you, Brent.

Speaker 5 (16:08):
Maybe emotional understandably so, and we were obviously going to
discuss that. But every year it comes around, it feels
just as real as it did when it happened. I mean,
I obviously the impact when it happened. We all I
think it's pretty obvious. We all know exactly where we
were when it happened. We don't forget that lives that
were lost. And I was reading an interesting quote last

(16:31):
night talking about you know, last night families went to
bed when this happened, the night before it happened, and
didn't realize that the last time they're going to see
their family and friends, or that person who was irritated
it had to go pick up coffee for their family
or for the couple co workers and was like into work.

(16:54):
I'm sure you carry around a little guilt because you
weren't there, but or that person that ran into traffic
and feels like the boss is going to be mad
when they get to work, or that person who took
their kid to school and kid didn't want to go
to dad's called work that I would be an hour late,
or the ones who you know, were supposed to take
their kid to school and didn't because they didn't want

(17:14):
to be late. And unfortunately, you know what I'm saying,
all those things, it's still you know, I was thinking
last night, how did how did how do planes fly
near the Pentagon without them being just shy? It goes in,
the emotion still runs wild. It never it doesn't go away.
And those families who lost people, we all know somebody
who knows somebody who been through it.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
We all remember where we were. So it's a great
point by.

Speaker 5 (17:37):
Him, and you know what a what a humbling day
it is, you know, And when they say never forget yet,
I don't know how you can.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Yeah you can't. If you yeah, I just don't.

Speaker 5 (17:49):
And it's it's gut wrenching for many. And if it's
not gut wrenching for everyone, something's wrong. And when you
saw that right, and I guess the emotions that go
through your mind when you hear a song or when
you here, you know, see the see the skyline of
New York City and just just all of it. And
then you start to think about people who a kid
went to school in there and never get to see
his mom or dad again.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Just horrible, you know.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
And I don't I'm not being morbid, but I go
through the emotion of what must these people, these heroes
have been thinking, right, how how they you know, those
who went in knowing they may never come out first responders,
but also when when when they hit the first building
and you're in the second, can you I can't even
fathom what you must have been thinking. You know what
I'm saying, what was that? Right, You're thinking what was that?

(18:33):
You're not paying attention to TV and you're like, oh
my god, I'm a cell phone in front of you, right,
and you can't ask them because you don't know well
what they're feeling because they didn't make it out. And
then you're in the second building and you're like, then
you see it, you look at it, Oh my gosh,
Then what's how quickly do you get out here? All
that is that a one off? Why what is there

(18:54):
another one? All the things that you can't fathom and
I and I know it's I. I just it's like
bring tears to you. I was thinking, what would they
what must have they thought? You know, we heard the
conversation on the plane when a guy was talking to
his wife in Pennsylvania, And I mean, what must they
have thought when they're sitting in there?

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Not No, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (19:15):
I don't know how you do it, and I don't
know how it doesn't still emotionally just crush people, even
if you didn't have anybody in those buildings when that happened,
are on that plane.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
I just I don't, I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 5 (19:26):
I think about adversity we've all been through, and I'm thinking,
what do you do in those moments? And if you're
a first responder and they're asking you to go in,
and you're thinking you don't have time to stop down
and call your family, that extra minute to call your
family saying I'm going in. I just want to tell
you I love you. I don't you know it's time
to call him, and you don't know when the next floor,

(19:46):
when you don't.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
Know if you're ever coming out?

Speaker 5 (19:48):
Yeah, don't talk to me about basketball and being baseball
players being heroes on this day. A lot of perspective, man,
And it's gut wrenching and the pictures you see and goodness,
I just I don't know. I don't know how we
would ever forget that. It's awful, freaking awful.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
TRIPLEY, what year were you born?

Speaker 7 (20:14):
Two thousand?

Speaker 1 (20:15):
So you were so you don't remember in September eleventh?
What have you learned?

Speaker 9 (20:20):
Like?

Speaker 1 (20:20):
What what have you learned growing up about that day?
I learned a lot, Like can you wrap your head
around of like what actually happened on that day or
is it just kind of a different feeling because you
weren't Yeah.

Speaker 11 (20:31):
It's kind of different because I wasn't really there. Uh yeah,
I listened to all the viewpoints and all the angles
and things.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
But yeah, I like watch documentaries and things like that.

Speaker 11 (20:41):
Yeah, and things that are being uncovered now and today
and stuff like that. But I don't know, it's kind
of hard to put a finger on it.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
It does make me wonder now with what TRIPLEI is saying,
is how many peep you people his age did these are?
We're young too? Young to really know what was happing
up or weren't born yet. Yeah, and when they see
the pictures now, how does it impact them? Is it

(21:07):
just like, oh, man, what a bummer for them?

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Is it?

Speaker 12 (21:10):
Man?

Speaker 5 (21:11):
What a little change that you're just like because you
weren't alive, so you almost treat it like, Oh, that's
that's distant, that's distant history.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
If that's not redundant distant history, that's history. But you
know way back at that could doesn't concern me, you
know what I'm saying. I wonder or if there's born
in that the families have explained him, just.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
What this did? I feel like our country? Yeah, I
feel like like people that are Manny's age or younger that,
like you said, they weren't around. I wonder how hard
it is for them to fathom that they look at
these two massive buildings in the skyline of New York
City and watch them get hit by planes and then collapse. Like,

(21:53):
I don't think that they can really like the the
the magnitude of that situation. I don't think they can. No,
It's almost like it's like a movie set. That's what
I was going to say. It feels like it was
not real.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
And when you stare at it and I still think, okay,
first responders get there.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
And you know, you take on the.

Speaker 5 (22:15):
Responsibility and the accountability when you decide to be a
police officer or a fire person or a you know,
you know you're in the medical field, whatever it is,
whatever first round responder means. Know that you're like, okay,
I mean, it's not like you're going into a you know,

(22:38):
you got to go to put out a fire in
your fireplace in the backyard, you know, when you're oh, man,
put a little too much charcoal briquettes in there where
you've got to get down and get your own fire extingers.
This is you're staring at it thinking this is why, Yeah,
you don't get to sit back saying not today, I'm
not going to do that. And I again, I just
I can't even fathom sitting on the top of those buildings.

(23:01):
And you know, the when you think like that, it
makes me hyper mentally yas I can't what do you
do well?

Speaker 1 (23:08):
I mean you think about it too. Uh, these firemen
and police officers and all the v mts and all
the first responders going into the gathering, into the lobby
of one of the towers, trying to figure out a
plan on how to get up and evacuate people and
try to put out that fire. And also they're having
to deal with literally people jumping out of the building.

(23:30):
Well not only because they had to decide.

Speaker 5 (23:34):
To jump, and think about this when you're when it's
going when that happens, not like first responders were sitting
on the fifty eighth floor and thinking how to get down.
They're they're got to go up up, running into it
and then got to get down. And I just the

(23:55):
thought of those those people who lost their lives sitting
in that building, not not having any idea, and I'm
sure the discombobulation and confusion, what do I do? And
I can't even fathom you have to make the decision
over how am I getting through a burning building that
may collapse, or jumping out of a window from sixty
floors up or whatever it was. I don't I really

(24:18):
don't care if you can feel a bunt today, to
be honest with you, but I just I think about
those families. How is this day not just just bury
you emotionally every single year? You know, I don't, I
just at least it's a loss for it because I
don't know. I mean, oh I know what they're going.
I have no idea. From a distance. It still makes

(24:42):
you sick, and it still makes me sick to think
how they pulled this off, right, and the lives that
are lost, that dad's kids never get to see their
moms or dads.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
I just I don't know.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
I hate to get off like that, but it's just
like this day is like when it hits no matter what,
she's out, tomorrow's nine to eleven, and it's just when
it does, when you wake up to it, you're like, man,
I remember, and what a couple hours from now, well
on the East Coast, an hour or so from now,
is about when it hit the first plane. Yeah, no,
God bless those families that had had to go through

(25:15):
it and all anybody who's had somebody who was lost
in it. And it feels like it was a billion people, right,
it does because you did. It feels that made the
world small in the United States small, you know what
I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Yeah, crazy, All right, let's get to break.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
I had to live there for The Sean Salisbury Show continued.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Tough one for the Astros last night. Obviously, we were
just talking about September eleventh, two thousand and one. I
can't believe it's been twenty three years since that tragedy.
Time really early flies, man. Crazy to think about the pictures.

Speaker 5 (25:56):
It brings you into reality of man, I can you
can tell you everything about that that day, you can
maybe did where you were. I mean, those are those
are the things you just don't forget, and if you do,
then you probably need a we probably need to check
you a little bit. Yeah, it's hard to forget those
and families that are suffering to day.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Man.

Speaker 5 (26:18):
I don't know what we say other than sorry and
thanks meaning for the sacrifice that whoever you know. And
we talk about just the first responders, Well, there were sacrifices, man.
I'm sure some were saving somebody else that were up there,
saving their partner sitting next to them in office before
they save themselves.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Stuff that will they talk.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
About other heroes that will never know anything about because
they were trying to get you know, a mom out
of there. As a dad trying to get a mom
out of there and get her safe and not thinking
about themselves, right, just just just awful, awful heroic stuff,
but an awful visual and an awful thought and awful reality.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
Yeah, it's just terrible. Yeah, I uh, I think like
back to the to the sports world. So I was
in seventh grade when this happened, so they were football
season already started. So did football postpone for that next week?

Speaker 5 (27:11):
I believe? So, yeah, they took that week off. I
think they skipped imber. I was sitting in a hotel
in Bristol getting ready to do a show. Did shows
till after midnight the night before, and I was in
bed in a hotel room. Got a phone call, said
in the hotel room because it was it was too
far away because I had to do late night Sports Center,
get up and do show early next morning, so making

(27:33):
the drive. I I, uh, let's see what year that was?
What year? Just two thousand and one, right, I'm thinking
that I moved to I might have still been in
because I'd moved to Connecticut for three years, but I
don't think I was there yet. And that's because the
hotel and where I lived was like an hour away
from the studios. So night, get up early that morning,

(27:53):
but got to bet about three o'clock because we were
doing the late Sports Center in the on the East coast,
not like they have like Linda Cohen and them doing
on the West coast right, And woke up to my
hotel rooms ringing, and I'm like, what's my hotel phone ringing?
I mean, nobody other than the time my wife and
you know kids answer, turn your TV on? Turned my

(28:19):
TV on.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
It was up all night.

Speaker 5 (28:20):
I got to do show staff, turn your TV on.
Our world the United States is under attack? What turn
it on?

Speaker 1 (28:31):
In time?

Speaker 5 (28:32):
A minute later the second when you start to and
I'm like, well, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (28:36):
You? You have felt like am I dream? What was
going on here?

Speaker 5 (28:40):
And then all of a sudden, I remember that day
at ESPN we went from a sports network to a
news world coverage and everything they called a bunch of
us in because we had shows and how they were
going to handle it, and it was coverage wall to wall,
and Vince Doria, who's our managing editor at the time,
and Bob Lee, you know, the the general and Bob

(29:01):
handled all that the serious you know, when things changed
and it was wall to wall coverage and at that
point in time sports stopped.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Done.

Speaker 5 (29:11):
And I remember after that, you go in there and
you're like, you're looking around You're thinking what what's next?

Speaker 1 (29:17):
And you you.

Speaker 5 (29:17):
Were riveted, riveted in a point your head was on
a swivel, not noing, literally right, like what do you do?
Who's in there? What happened? How's this happened? What's going on?
And throughout the day. So, no, we didn't we didn't
do sports that day. And then I can remember I
had to travel and do the airports closed everything. And
I remember the following week I had when they opened
airports again. I had to go and do a feature

(29:39):
for Sunday Countdown and I remember walking through the Hartford
Airport and.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
How eerie it was.

Speaker 5 (29:48):
And I remember getting on that plane the first time
and my first getting on that plane the first time
thinking and my head literally was and it did change
you literally and you went through that. I mean that
that was a day when they opened that up, that
going through airports would never be the same again.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
Right.

Speaker 5 (30:02):
What we call an inconvenience now was, well, it would
have been nice to have an inconvenience back in the day,
you know what I'm saying. And I can remember getting
on that plane and anybody that got up and walked
to the to the bathroom. Literally, I promise you. I'm
I bawling. I'm thinking, Okay, it's only a week. That
part's not happening again, right, And I could all the

(30:23):
different emotions you went through. You start to look at somebody,
Why is that person moving? What do they they look different?
What are they looking? Why are they walking up there?
It was like that, Well, walking through that airport was
as eerie as any time I've ever been in an
airport in my life.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
And it was just days later when they finally opened it.

Speaker 5 (30:39):
But I'll never forget it, man, I will never forget it,
in the way they handled it and how just how
somber it was like they changed our country for it
ever on that day, and lives were lost and for
some their lives will never be the same obviously.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Man, So trying to think. So it was yeah, probably
like a week, probably a week or two with no
sports at all, at least a week, Yeah, at least
I think baseball stopped.

Speaker 5 (31:09):
Yeah, And to think about it to this day, I
don't even remember how we went through airports. I start
to think, you know, people could come up to the
gate and stuff. I don't even remember what we did
pre check in. Yeah, before that, I remember being a
kid like sevent eight years old. Every every summer we
would go to Connecticut to see family, and then we'd
drive up to Maine to the lake house. And then
when we get back, my dad would be waiting at

(31:31):
the gate for us, not not not out in the
change that day, Yeah at the gate. Yeah, change that day.
And I'll just I can't remember. We don't have taking
our shoet It's just like was a fog after that?
It's like security that I have to take my hat
off with my shoes on?

Speaker 1 (31:46):
Was there even security? Right? Was I putting it through?
Where they looking at my luggage? I can't even remember.

Speaker 5 (31:51):
And literally up until that day, that's what you did
all the time, all your life.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Yeah. And the immediately changed, and I don't remember what
it was like. That's nuts, man. It was just I'll
never forget getting that.

Speaker 6 (32:02):
I was.

Speaker 5 (32:02):
I was actually uptight going to the airport because I
was thinking what if?

Speaker 1 (32:07):
Yeah, and it's I.

Speaker 5 (32:10):
Know people are listening in sports, but it's today is
I don't know, I'm meaningful is not the right word impactful?

Speaker 1 (32:18):
I don't know. Is there a day in your life
losing your parents? Yeah? They I mean they fall in that.

Speaker 5 (32:22):
But is there a day in your life outside of family,
and for some that was family, that not only was
harder hitting, but was more impactful on you, that that
still feels as real as it did the day it happened.
Is there any other event in your life that I mean?

Speaker 1 (32:37):
I mean, of course, you got, like me, graduating college,
you know, going to play baseball in college, like all
those things like those.

Speaker 5 (32:42):
Do you remember what you ate that night and when
you graduated, what you have for dinner?

Speaker 1 (32:46):
No, I can tell you exactly what I was eating
when I watched the coverage on Good Morning in America.
That's exactly my point. That's exactly my point. I watched
the first tower get hit by the plane and had
no or sorry they broke in after then I watched
the second plane hit proud graduation day, right, Yeah, also
huge accomplishment.

Speaker 5 (33:03):
You don't remember what you hate? No, you do when
you watch that. Yeah, And so you answered my question.
There hasn't been one.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
I could walk you through my entire morning. Yeah, my
entire day. And not only that, you can, you could
use the seventh grader. You'd also be able to walk
through it thinking, huh, I know, not only what I ate,
but the emotional feelings I had going on. Yeah, yeah,
it's crazy anything unbelievable, and you hope to God you
never have to see it again.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
And if you, for whatever reason are struggling with seeing,
you know, you know somebody I can go to. I
do well. First off, you go to doctor Whitsy. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (33:34):

go to Whitsy because you don't want to see it, right,
but uh, but need to and doctor Whitst when it
comes to your everyday life, guys, And for me, I
wanted to be able to see clear. I didn't really

I love that song for years.

Speaker 9 (36:40):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
I remember where I was on that day.

Speaker 14 (36:42):
I was sitting in school, waiting on a phone call
to go pick my dad.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
Up from the airport coming home from work.

Speaker 14 (36:49):
One of the reasons why I joined the military, aside
from family.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Lineage, was that day. What branch were you in Marine Corps?

Speaker 1 (36:57):
How old were you when nine to eleven happened?

Speaker 2 (36:59):
I was eight nine?

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Okay, so you were in elementary?

Speaker 2 (37:10):
Yeah, yeah, I was.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
So you're a couple years younger than I am.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
Okay, yeah, I was born in ninety three.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Okay, so I got four years man, So what what
what do you remember, you know, being an eight nine
year older or however old you were about that day.

Speaker 14 (37:24):
I mean, the world stopped around us immediately it happened.
They turned the TVs on at school. Uh My mom
was a teacher at the school, so they were all
trying to figure out what to do and how to
handle it. And I snuck into the high school room
and watched it on the TV with everybody.

Speaker 5 (37:43):
Hey, Alex, let me let me ask you when when
you went home after what They're tennis go. You said
you were nine, and I guess you've had nine. You
start to get an idea of kind of how impactful
was because the world did stop turning, obviously, But when
you went home, what your parents at nine? You know,
you're fragile, you don't quite understand, but you kind of do.

(38:06):
What would your parents say to you, how they do,
what they discussed, what they say when you got home.

Speaker 14 (38:12):
My mom didn't really say a whole lot because we
were waiting on a phone call from my dad because
he was supposed to be flying in from I think Virginia.

Speaker 5 (38:20):
That well, that's scary because that's a part of the country.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
Yeah, and that's what we were waiting on.

Speaker 14 (38:26):
Like, nobody really told me anything other than what had happened,
And my mother was just telling me that, hey, we're
waiting on a phone call from dad to figure out
what's going on. Make sure he's actually flying home. Make
sure you know that's what we were doing at that
point in time.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
But yeah, it was. It was. It was the day
to remember, for sure.

Speaker 5 (38:51):
Do you remember what do you remember? Do you remember
the first thing he said to you when you got home?

Speaker 2 (38:57):
Uh, yeah, let's go eat.

Speaker 14 (39:01):
He got home the next He got home the next
day because he was able to find a flight out.

Speaker 5 (39:06):
And uh.

Speaker 14 (39:08):
We went and ate and we discussed everything. But the
conversation the next day, I don't remember a whole lot
of them. I was just happy he was at home.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
At that point.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
Absolutely good stuff, man, Appreciate you sharing.

Speaker 14 (39:20):
Astros Astros toll be Okay, they'll bounce back from it,
and uh, they're gonna make a run and the Texans
are going to do great this year.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Based on what I've seen this last week.

Speaker 14 (39:32):
And then, uh, one last thing, triply if I could
make a request for the next one coming back. It's
a song called Simper five by trade Patkins. I appreciate y'all.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Thank you, Alex. Yeah, you could play play his before
you play my.

Speaker 5 (39:45):
Uh, Darryl Worthy, have you forgotten we can get that
at the top of the you know, like maybe it's
seven thirty at the stakeout. So yeah, tough man, share
these stories. Hoping your dad's in Virginia and that part
of the contract for the country is kind of nuts.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
Virginia. Guess where you're not far from.

Speaker 5 (40:02):
Yeah, you're right there by the pend So was it?
The CIA is what Langley, Virginia.

Yeah, so you're still not far that Virginia, that that
mid Atlantic East coast part.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (40:15):
Yeah, I would imagine you hear that he's on the
point from Virginia, you'd be a little nervous.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
You know.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
One thing, like when we talk about September eleventh, I
hope that one day our country can have the amount
of American pride and togetherness that we did on September twelfth. Yeah.
In the days after that, nothing else mattered. It didn't
matter what party.

Speaker 5 (40:33):
You remember when George Bush went out through a strike
at Yankee Stadium went after the play, nobody, nobody cared.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
It was all you about what you were registered as.
You just cared because it was us.

Speaker 5 (40:42):
Yeah, and it felt and it was it felt like
us against the world that day, didn't It Sure did so.
But like anything, sometimes you let it slip. Can't do it,
you can't. Those are things that you have to keep
I mean etched in, I mean I mean placed, and
never let go.

Speaker 8 (44:13):
Hey, good morning guys.

Speaker 15 (44:16):
Just uh, you know, I just wanted to kind of
chime in as well about the whole nine to eleven experience.
You know, I was I was a freshman in high school,
uh at Saint Thomas here in Houston, Uh when it
went down, and you know, for for those that don't
really that weren't there, that weren't old enough to comprehend it,
you know, Uh triply I heard you say that you were,

(44:37):
you know, pretty young when it happened.

Speaker 8 (44:38):
You know, it was in the last caller I think
mentioned it.

Speaker 15 (44:41):
Just how the world stopped it if I could compare
it to anything you think about how everything stopped in
the world during COVID, and you know, that was like
a two to four week process before everything really before
everybody said Okay, this is a lot bigger and a
lot worse than we think it is, and everything finally
came to more or less a complete halt. That two

(45:02):
to four week process was condensed into about three hours
on that day. And that's how just impactful it was
and how serious. And I can still remember as a
freshman in high school when it happened. It was just
it was it was shocked. It was disbelief. And if
you can imagine a bunch of kids, teachers and everybody
just stopping and standing, like the entire school was silent.

(45:27):
The only thing you could hear was was the the
news stations on the TVs that were in the hallways
and the classrooms. Teachers weren't in their classrooms. Everybody was
in the hallways watching the TVs. And it was it
was this is a this is a school of kids,
a bunch of rambunctious kids that are normally running around
making more noise than you can hear the person next
to you talking, and it was complete, and others it

(45:49):
was spooky. And you know that that was the day
that I still look back and I think about and
seeing those images on the TV and again to to
the last callers credit, you know that that was a
day that America reunited more so than it's been in
the last century as far as I'm concerned, because it

(46:10):
it didn't matter that you may not have known anybody
that was actually there on ground zero. When you saw
those images of people literally jumping or falling out of
those buildings, it was it was like it put it's
still to this day puts a pit in my stomach
by if they were my own family, Like these.

Speaker 8 (46:28):
Are our people, yep, this is this is our country.
This is happening on our land.

Speaker 15 (46:33):
And you know, for for I don't know if you
guys realize this, I mean you'll probably do, but it
hadn't been mentioned yet. There are still people to this
day that death toll is still climbing for. Our first
responders are our fire department guys, our police officers, our
soldiers that were there on that day that were trying.

Speaker 8 (46:52):
To dig through the rubble to save people.

Speaker 15 (46:54):
There are still ill illnesses this day, to this day,
that those people are still you know, moving on from Yep,
that death toll is still climbing twenty three years later,
and with that man saying, you know, just God bless
all those first responders, those police officers and soldiers of
everybody that stopped to help, even if you weren't in
a uniform. Those were the real heroes from that day.

(47:15):
And I just wanted to say that on the radio
and give them all a shout out to everybody that
was and wasn't there that wears the uniport for.

Speaker 5 (47:22):
Us guys, Rob great stuff man, thank you for sharing
the hell of a story. And imagine we all, I mean,
everybody feels different. And he's so right about that. And
while you take that responsibility as a first responder, I
don't think when you decided to be a police officer
or a fireman or a EMT or in the military,

(47:42):
that that was a choice a day that you expect.

Speaker 1 (47:45):
That you were going to face while you were a
first responder. Yeah, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (47:49):
Of course, you you know, you never know what's going
to happen when you're just a reg a traffic stops
as a police officer or a fire at a house
you don't know. But if you said, hey, do you
think this would happen under your while you're a first
respond when you sign up, that's not what you're thinking.
You're going to go in for, right, Twin towers falling
down and that a world is literally under attack. You're

(48:10):
I know, you're prepared for it. Those guys that have
they are the true heroes that you just don't. I
don't know how you prepare for something that's not when
you sign up to think, yeah, well man, it's a
part of my fifth year in as a police officer,
I'm going to have to or if you're a rookie
and that happens, like this isn't what you prepared for
as a first responder. Yet to act immediately in the
heroic actions of all of them, yeah, unbelievable. And I

(48:33):
one other emotion after see from me, and I'll admit it,
the emotion of devastation and oh my gosh, that the
emotion like he said, it didn't matter if you didn't
know the people in the building, you felt like you
knew the people in the building.

Speaker 1 (48:46):
Is I was angry when I got on the plane.
I was angry. It was almost I dare you.

Speaker 5 (48:53):
I said, I got an aisle seed on purpose, dude,
because I thought, I'm gonna be the biggest guy in
the front seats.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
Because someone wants wants.

Speaker 5 (49:01):
That's exactly how I felt, honest to God, which is
not fair to them, but idea, it was a fact.
I got up there and I requested because when they
flew me, they had to fly me up in the
front seats, right part of the contract. I said, I
need an aisle seat, and I requested an aisle seat
for one A lot of times, I like the window

(49:21):
so I can lean ahead and fall asleep. I want
I wasn't going to sleep on this flight. And it
was the first flight in the morning. I always took
the first flight to get there earlier to get and
I said, do I want the aisle seat. I'll seat
was open, and my hair. I stayed wide awake the
whole time, and I was angry because I thought, not
trying to be a tough guy. But the anger in

(49:42):
me said that's not today. It was almost as if
you said try it, because that if it's gonna it's
gonna be a tough task.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
You know that feeling.

Speaker 5 (49:51):
And I'm sure a lot of people felt the same
way I did. But I was mad man, angry as
could be for a long And truth is, when I
see it, the emotion, and it hurts some of the
way you feel for other people.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
But I'm still angry.

Speaker 5 (50:05):
Hellthough I am, there's a part of me that on
this day every year, it's like how and why and
that I think we and I'm not the only one.
Imagine those people who actually lost a husband or a wife,
a best friend or whatever, or a first responder, but
and it's our country, and it felt like, you know,
you almost felt like we're impenetrable.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
You can't do that, right, you can't do that to us,
you know. One of the most interesting perspectives I think
I've seen is there's a documentary of I believe it's
two European guys that were following one of the firehouses
in New York City and they're like one of the
only cameras to get the first plane going into the tower.

(50:45):
And just you think about it, these two guys are
just following a crew of a firefighter crew. And these
guys are just out doing routine maintenance, doing just their
normal day, and they look up and they see a
plane go into the first building, and then they have
to start to react. Routine rush ends right there, buddy,
rush right towards the building. But then also, like you

(51:08):
got to think about it, they're thinking, holy hell, we
just watched a plane going. Okay, accidents happen, you know, Unfortunately,
this is an awful tragedy. They're not going in thinking
the damn building is going to collapse. Well, they're also
not going They're going in thinking they're gonna have to
get people out of the building, try to get up
to that floor, get people out, try to put out
a fire, right, and it's gonna take a massive unit. Well,
then the second plane hits. Okay, now we got two fires.

(51:30):
But still they didn't think that these buildings were gonna fall.

Speaker 5 (51:33):
And you also did not think. I can't imagine at
least that their first thought when they're in their fire
engine is the fire truck is well it's a terrorist attack. Yeah,
you had to think something got offline. What happened was
a GPS screwed up by the time, But the second
one hits, you have no that that's not an accident, right,

(51:56):
you're thinking, and I think my first thought also is
did they plan it as somebody on that plane or
did something happen with you know, somebody had jumped into
the thing and you know, took the traffic control and
ran them into each other because they controlled that part
of it, right, And then you start to hear the
other then it's like, well, whoa was Like we're hearing
these reports and hearing this. Then you start to think

(52:17):
then the anger of the not only the raw emotion
of what's going on here's fear, but then the raw
emotion of when you start to hear who they believed
did it? Right now, it's what are we waiting on? Yeah,
strike immediately back, you know what I'm saying, But you
got to gather it all. But that emotion I'm sure
went through a ton. And then like you're on the

(52:38):
plane and the guy talks to his wife and and
then knows that he's probably not going to make it,
and you're saying, I just that that part.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
Ugh, yeah, that's just awful. Terrible, Yeah, fricking terrible. Let's

not just talk to.

Speaker 5 (54:35):
Mike Hello, Mike, Hey, Good morning guys, Good morning Sattning.

Speaker 16 (54:41):
Hey.

Speaker 8 (54:42):
Look, look I just want to I'm a regular listener
and I was.

Speaker 17 (54:46):
I was surprised and pleased when I turned on and
hurt you guys talking about nine to eleven.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
I'll I'll be real quick.

Speaker 8 (54:55):
So if if the so.

Speaker 17 (54:56):
Sean, I'm of your vintage. So I'm not exactly young.
I remember this, and my wife and I watched sixty
minutes FD and Y last night. It's it's about those
heroic firefighters. And if you know, if you don't remember
that day, so well, it's it's amazing.

Speaker 8 (55:18):
The second thing is talk about unity.

Speaker 17 (55:22):
When our Texan President Bush went up to Yankee Stadium
and threw that first pitch out that that was just awesome.
And the third point is I read I read the
book about Pat Tillman, that American hero, and you know

(55:42):
he was killed by friendly fire. And what the military
did to try to keep we ignorant folks from knowing
about what happened was it'll make your blood boil. So
I like to try to keep those two things, you know,
intention remembering those heroes and also just knowing that there
was some other trap going on.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
So thank you guys for doing this. Oh you bet, Mike,
thank you.

Speaker 5 (56:06):
Yeah that when you see documentaries and like what he's
talking about f dn Y and yeah, and it really
was the pitch by President Bush and it was a
stone cold strike right off.

Speaker 1 (56:16):
The rubber too.

Speaker 5 (56:17):
I mean it was you talked about cold blooded when
it was like you know, it was. It epitomized how
I think we all felt. And there was a sense
of pride, you know that night. I'll never forget that either, however,
and how I felt, I'm sure how most people felt,
so that it still never takes away from what we witnessed.

(56:39):
And I don't think you can forget. I don't think
you can forget what happened on this day, man.

Speaker 1 (56:46):
I just don't.

Speaker 18 (56:46):
So.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
I mean, you know, you're begging for the unity, you're
not begging for how you got the unity? No, hell no, no.
The documentary, that short documentary on President Bush's first pitch
stadium and he's warming up. Jeter, Yet, Jeeter, he don't
don't bounce it. They'll boo you.

Speaker 5 (57:05):
Because they first said what he said, hey, and by
the way, where are you throwing it from? And talking
about a paraphrase throwing from the rubby, Yet basically this
is a stadium. Get back on the rubber, and yeah,
don't bounce the last towards he said, don't bounce it.
They don't bounce it. Not only Didney bounce, he got
out the rubber. Don't bounce it.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
They'll boo you. Yeah, and that'll be all over and
I'll be damned.

Speaker 5 (57:27):
Not only Didney bounce it, it didn't come off the
rope that he threw right the home plate catch. It
does move his gloves and just the way he walked
off with pride and the it was like he had
done it a thousand times before. And he thrown quite
a few strikes. There's a throwing the first pitch out,
but no more pressure first throwing the first pitch out
than that.

Speaker 1 (57:47):
And he was in a you know, the jacket he
had on right the the FDN Y jacket and and
and YP get a bullet pro vests on under it.
Sure he did because they were having to know his
and his people were spread around the thing, but they
weren't standing on the mound with him. They had the
umpire crew right there. Yeah, they had a secret service
agent as an undress as an umpire.

Speaker 5 (58:05):
Sure. But the fact that he just walked out there
and playing sight yeah, regardless. Right after that, as if
to say, he could have put a middle finger up
with his left hand to to the to the to
the people who caused that harm that day. Not that
President Bush would do it, but that's the I think
the felt the way you felt, and then you go
rips it and and Jeter put it on it stuck

(58:27):
that pressure off of it.

Speaker 1 (58:28):
It's so great when you hear the exchange. A lot
of pride that night. I think when I look at
my life so far, and again I'm thirty five years old,
I think one of the craziest things that I think
about is two times in my lifetime have I seen
where the sports world has completely shut down? Nine to
eleven and then COVID, I mean, just where it absolutely

(58:51):
shut down and we had zero sports. Just crazy to
think about two completely different reasons. And yet I have
witnessed twice where sports was non existent because sports for me,
and I know a lot of people feel this way.
I know we on the show feel this way. Sports
is an escape from reality for a lot of people.

(59:13):
And when you don't have those sports, it's like, okay,
a lot of different things come into perspective.

Speaker 5 (59:18):
And the difference between the two is one immediately united us, Yeah,
the one immediately tore us apart, us apart, and both
changed Rune killed lives. Yeah, And I was thinking, too, well,
what was your comment before that. I'm sitting there getting

(59:39):
caught up on the emotion of of of bringing together
and tearing us apart. Now you mentioned something that clicks,
something that was gonna.

Speaker 1 (59:51):
I mentioned the umpire being secret service and wearing a
bold proofvest. It's just a story, just a quick story
about about that sports world shutting down. Yeah, I escape
from reality. Oh, thank you.

Speaker 5 (01:00:04):
That's the one when we went to I've told you
this story, and I think I said, do't here bears
repeating real quick. I when we did Sports Center during
the Gold War and they did Sports CeNAT during the
golf War we took. We flew to to we flew
to the truth for the truth. Yeah yeah, okay, myself,
Stuart Scott, Chris Berman, Kenny Maine.

Speaker 1 (01:00:28):
Well, well thank you.

Speaker 5 (01:00:30):
I guess they felt that and they asked us and
said you don't have to go, but they wanted to
take a group of people to do live Sports Center
that week. And I was not missing that. Yeah, no,
hell no, even though you were. We got on the
bus to drive from the resort on the and to
uh to uh Kuwait right to the to the base

(01:00:52):
and they they we had to have two arm guards
and they closed our our curtains on the bus on
the drive for obvious reasons. I didn't know where you're going,
and so they didn't know, so just in case there
was something.

Speaker 1 (01:01:05):
They don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:01:06):
Who's it the bus right and you're talking about just
down the you know, how many clicks away. The war
was actually going on. And when we walked in there
the first time to see it was like it was
it was proud, but gut urange when you look at
how many how they needed sports. Because I'd sat there,
we'd throw them routes, we'd go out and they're in

(01:01:26):
their fatigues and running routes and it was such a
spect We did it live, so it was like two
in the morning or whatever there and we're doing it
live back here right a day earlier day however, that
time frame, and I'll never forget asking. And we were
sitting down in a mess hall and said, do you
guys almost are does this stuff help?

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
Does sports help you?

Speaker 6 (01:01:43):
Guys?

Speaker 1 (01:01:43):
I wanted to know?

Speaker 5 (01:01:44):
And they because they have big TVs in the where
they could watch their football on a Sunday while they're
eating and stuff, they said, it's they.

Speaker 1 (01:01:51):
Not only it is it good? They needed it.

Speaker 5 (01:01:53):
Wow, And it's perspective now listen, but just whatever that
fifteen minutes or half hour, they're talking about their Dallas
Cowboys or Houston Texans or Pittsburgh Steelers. And it made
you feel proud because then there one, I mean made
their whole day. They're running routes and you're throwing the balls.
It's like, it's cool animate art to go out there
and actually see the signs and to their kids back home,
and it's live. It was the greatest experience that I've

(01:02:17):
ever had in media. And I'm so glad I went,
even though you're nervous getting on the plane, how's it
going to be? But honored that ESPN chose us to go. Yeah,
and I wasn't going to turn it down. You know,
you start thinking to your family, but I'm saying, and
I'm missing this and not like they were putting fatigues
on us and go and fighting. But you still you're
close to me. Just however many clicks away from the
actual and I'm telling you, man, it was just to

(01:02:41):
see their reaction was the most proud I've ever been
as a broadcaster, to know they were hanging on your
every word because their kids at home were It's like
collebs gave me.

Speaker 1 (01:02:49):
They all had signs right, and I'm like, what an experience.

Speaker 5 (01:02:51):
And I'll never forget sharing it with Kenny Maine and
Steve Levy and the talking about it. And I would
imagine most of them Emmy Awards covering Super Bowls. If
you ask them, I would think most of those guys
I just mentioned would say in their top three mind
it was without questioning. One was that that week doing
Live Sports Center while a war was going on and
while thinking about eighteen and twenty year other I mean

(01:03:15):
the the the range, age range varied, and.

Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
How they live.

Speaker 5 (01:03:18):
I mean, you can't fit between the bunks, but it
goes forever in the barracks, right, And I'm like you
talk about respect, Yeah, but they need sports as a whole.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
Morald of the story, Yeah, escape from reality. They and
it and their reality. Brother ain't our reality. No, it's not.
I got news for it. They're fighting for our reality.

Speaker 5 (01:03:35):
But that's it's real because every day, I mean and
I had, I'll never ever forget it, every step of
that way.

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
That week the best ever in my career. Yeah, I
can imagine it was phenomenal, real perspective on it. Seven
seven ninety is the number to join. We'll take your

Speaker 1 (01:06:05):
Good morning, Good morning. What's on your mind?

Speaker 19 (01:06:09):
Oh no, I just want to tell my story about
nine to eleven real quick, don't get here. I was
in third grade when it happened, eight years old. I
was super excited because that was when WW SmackDown was
supposed to happen later that day.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
So I had got off the bus not knowing what happened.

Speaker 19 (01:06:25):
Because I was in elementary, they kind of shielded us
from it, and then my sister come outside and I
got off the bus and I was like, hey, we've
been bombed and you're not going tonight, basically kind of telling.

Speaker 7 (01:06:36):
Me what happened what was cool part about it.

Speaker 19 (01:06:39):
Two days later, SmackDown was rescheduled and my brother took
me and it was the first live sporting event of
that size since nine to eleven in the country. So
I got to go there and just I was too
young to the family was going on, but seeing all
the American flags and everybody's in USA when Kurt Angle
came out, it was just really emotional looking back at

(01:07:02):
it now that I'm thirty two and just being a
part of that just looking back on it was like, wow,
you know, it's just being that'll always be something I can,
you know, be a part of. But just sad obviously
and terrible what happened.

Speaker 15 (01:07:18):
But not knowing.

Speaker 19 (01:07:21):
As young as I was, what I was experiencing at
that time, and just looking back on it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:25):
Now you do now, don't you you know? Now? Yep? Yeah,
appreciate the call, Jeff. Thanks Jay.

Speaker 5 (01:07:32):
Let's talk to Tommy. Tommy, good morning, Good morning guys.
How you doing, fantastic brother? What's on your mind?

Speaker 9 (01:07:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:07:40):
So I was there.

Speaker 16 (01:07:41):
I'm from New York. Originally I moved to Houston in
two thousand and eight, but I was there. I used
to work forty two Broadway, and so I used to
live in Brooklyn. And I don't know how much time
you got, but I'll try to go through this quickly.
So I used to take the train into Lower Manhattan
that morning. I woke up late, and you know, I

(01:08:02):
was like, oh my god. I get to work and
I get on the train and my train got rerouted
and I'm like, why are they rerouting this train? So
I get towards like the last stop in Brooklyn, and
this guy comes on. He's like, hey, a plane just
flew into the into the top, into the towers. We're
all like what. And then the next thing, you know,
you hear the train conductor and the motorman talking like, hey,
are we going? Are we going? And they rerouted us

(01:08:24):
over one of the bridges, which is the Manhattan Bridge,
And just before we got over there, they said, yeah,
another plane hit. And I'm like, oh my god, what
is going on? And you look downtown as you cross them,
and then there's.

Speaker 6 (01:08:36):
The two towers.

Speaker 16 (01:08:36):
They're just fully a blaze.

Speaker 7 (01:08:39):
And I got off at.

Speaker 16 (01:08:40):
Canal Street because I had to get to work. I mean,
strangely enough, I'm like, I still got to get to work.
So I'm walking downtown, walking down you know, Broadway, and
that's when the first tower fell, right when I got
to City Hall. And one of the things that I
vividly remember is this sound when the first town It
just sounded so loud, I guess from the air displacement

(01:09:04):
and all this movement of metal and everything coming down.
It literally sounded like another plane was coming in. And
everyone around me, included you know, we were all started running.
We just started running, and we saw the debris and
the smoke coming from from around the church that I
think is on probably one of the videos. I think
the filmmakers that you were talking about before, those European filmmakers.

(01:09:26):
All that stuff was coming towards us and we were
running around. We're just running away and you know where
you know, the guys would like saying, hey, ladies, lose
the shoes, lose the shoes. You got to get out
of you got to be able to run. And I
mean it was scary, it was frightening. And you know
you guys were talking about, you know, people jumping from
the towers. Yeah, I saw that live and to this

(01:09:47):
day it's still it still breaks me up. I can't
believe what was going through someone's mind to jump out
of that building, to get away from whatever, thousands of
degrees the heat. I mean, it's just INCREDI what I'll
never forget it. It's it's just unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
Tommy, great story. And uh man, that's when I say
great story. Just like it. It's mesmerizing.

Speaker 5 (01:10:10):
Listen because when he's walking through a Broadway and where
he was, I can visualize.

Speaker 1 (01:10:14):
You have you been in New York City?

Speaker 5 (01:10:16):
Ah, briefly this is subway and getting re routed on
the Subway'll give you a little nerves, get your nerves anyway, right, Yeah,
but being re routed and I'm listening to Tommy and explain,
okay on Broadway and where he was, and I'm thinking, man,
I can I'm along with him, hearing what he's saying. Right,
they just where that where his location is and in

(01:10:36):
the middle of it. I don't how do you how
do you get rid of those images?

Speaker 1 (01:10:40):
I don't think you ever do. It's incredible.

Speaker 5 (01:10:43):
I always wonder, like, what's what's your The initial thought
and there's was to run, I mean to trying to
be safe and get women, you know, out of their
shoes and be healthy and safe. But gosh, that's yeah,
it felt like I'm sure and it was nothing movie
about it, but I think we all thought this, this
is this is something that they put some script together.
There's no way you know what I'm saying when you

(01:11:03):
see the visuals of it. Yeah, but it's as real
as god. And well, it obviously changed the country and
for many of their lives, should change all our lives
one way or another. But Tommy, it's a hell of
a story.

Speaker 2 (01:11:16):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:11:17):
Can you imagine going in there and he's one, and
again he's feeling late for work and I got to
get there, and then all of a sudden, these disruptions
come in, and when you're done, you're like, man, somebody's watching.

Speaker 1 (01:11:27):
Out for me. Yea, now you see why?

Speaker 5 (01:11:29):
Yeah it's awful. Yeah, I mean that's a blessing. But
that day, man, I can't even fathom watching that tunnel
come live?

Speaker 9 (01:11:37):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:11:38):
What do you do not the tunnel tower? Yeah, I
don't know, it's run yeah, just I can't fathom it, man,
I really can't.

Speaker 5 (01:11:45):
And we had a lot of people that were running
to it, which is a because that's what they're paid
to do, right.

never doing again. Moving. Oh no, I'm sure somewhere you
know whether it's good A crew, I don't know. I
can tell you what I'm not doing packing boxes when
I when I sold, days are over there. When I
sold my house and moved into my apartment, I hired
a moving crew to pack from me. Sean, you know

(01:14:11):
it's it's it's it's cheaper to the box. Great, cool, cool.

Speaker 5 (01:14:17):
Not happening, never again. Man, I have missed dinner for
three weeks at a restaurant.

Speaker 1 (01:14:21):
How you doing it?

Speaker 5 (01:14:22):
Nope, I'm not packing another box. No, you do understand this.
I'm with you, and it sounds devid. I mean I
don't care. I mean I don't care because I packed
up forever wherever you move. Guess what I'm not in anymore, unless,
of course, somebody wants me to endorse their product and
teach them how to pack a box. I mean, no problem,
but I'm not in the packing boxes business anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:14:43):
Not doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:44):
Never again.

Speaker 5 (01:14:45):
It's not happening. I'm talking about it. I'm not even
walking one out to the truck to load it up
on you on your moving vehicle. Nope, not doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:53):
Dude. Uh no, Sean grabbed that box. No, there's extra
ten dollars for you. You grab it. It's not doing it.

Speaker 5 (01:15:01):
Uhhad not do it. Yeah, Cooper Rush is our backup quarterback.
We just signed back Prescott to a big.

Speaker 1 (01:15:09):
But it comes to a movie.

Speaker 5 (01:15:10):
I'm acting like a billionaire twenty times over. I'm not
doing it ever again. You know what if you were
a good friend though, Oh here we go.

Speaker 1 (01:15:23):
Because you know what, buddies. You love your buddies.

Speaker 5 (01:15:24):
But you're like, hey man, and I'll do it. I
see that's not fair. I'll never pack my own boxes again. Yeah,
I would help a friend. That that's true. I try
to come up with an excuse why I couldn't, but
think about this. I'll never pack a box again of
my own. I'm not doing it, Diva.

Speaker 1 (01:15:40):
What great?

Speaker 5 (01:15:41):
Yep, you're exactly right, not doing I packed enough for
forty of your moves. I don't do it anymore. But
when a friend calls, hey man, you got a couple
of hours on Saturday, Oh you need to use my truck?

Speaker 2 (01:15:52):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (01:15:53):
No, no, no, no, I need an extra body. What
are we moving?

Speaker 5 (01:15:57):
And then it's usually the heaviest thing. It's the dresser
that doesn't come unhooked you want to. It's the it's defrigerator.
It's always the big cross right. Yeah, you're not carrying
the pads that go on the couches. You got to
carry the big stuff you got, like the and you've
got to go downstairs. Yeah, and that's why again, buy
a single story home exactly, or live on the bottom

(01:16:19):
floor in an apartment forget all that. Yeah, and then
you got to maneuver it through the door, turn its
side with you're pulling Hammy's lower back and you're like,
I helped my buddy. But gosh, so I think when
was the last time you were of service to somebody
like yeah, yeah, just no, no, just to serve you,
Like you went out of your way to provide service

(01:16:39):
for somebody else you other than you know, flying Arizona
and fat Cat and with a cold beer with your
buddies during your fortieth bachelorette party or bachelor party.

Speaker 1 (01:16:47):
I helped I helped the friend move a big ass
table a couple of weeks ago. Actually, now I think
about it, big one yeah, you and four buddies, yeah
one one table. Yeah, it was it was like one
of the big you know the spindles. Yeah, right, that
people turn into two tables. Yeah, it was one of

(01:17:09):
those bad boys.

Speaker 5 (01:17:09):
All right, So you got that done. Somebody a full
move of service. I think you got a truck, classic
Chevy sugar Land.

Speaker 1 (01:17:18):
Yeah, damn right.

Speaker 5 (01:17:20):
Once you offer a friend some help, they might need it. No,
you can borrow my truck if you want. I can't
make it, dude, I gotta go out of town. Yeah,
so you're going out of town today?

Speaker 2 (01:17:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:17:30):
I am.

Speaker 1 (01:17:30):
Actually what about tomorrow? We're doing the show on the
road tomorrow. You got na.

Speaker 5 (01:17:37):
See what anybody says. Move You're like, it's cringe worthy. Man,
gotta eating. Yeah, I'll give you two hundred dollars to
help you move, but I can give you gas.

Speaker 1 (01:17:50):
Move in a box. Yeah, I'm not doing it.

Speaker 6 (01:17:52):
Well.

Speaker 1 (01:17:52):
Good for Brandon. I hope they're happy going to their
new crib. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:17:55):
I'm just if you were really a good if you're
really a good person, you'd be of Servey gotta go
to the gym. Why didn't you give the address where?

Speaker 1 (01:18:03):
I mean, I'm not gonna dos myself. Docks it out radio.

Speaker 5 (01:18:06):
I just don't understand why you can't be of service
because I'm a little cagier than you, you know, a
little in that case, then we got to have triple e.

Speaker 1 (01:18:14):
Well, we got to get you first. He can borrow
our truck because he has a car, you can borrow both.

Speaker 5 (01:18:21):
Yeah, my person and yeah, well yeah we live za yeah, yeah,
can drive one of ours and you can drive the other.

Speaker 7 (01:18:31):
You two guys right there, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:18:33):
Big, we're big physical guys.

Speaker 7 (01:18:35):
Right, yeah, that's a hassle.

Speaker 5 (01:18:37):
We want to keep you safe, right, you don't want
to drive a truck. You gotta keep people safe, right yeah. Yeah,
but I'm a little cage here than you, I would think,
you know, respect your elders. I am, but I put
a little more move time in than you because i'm older.

Speaker 1 (01:18:48):
Right, that's fair.

Speaker 5 (01:18:49):
So I think that I should probably be able to
well and make an executive decision that.

Speaker 1 (01:18:55):
I think you'd be great at it. Face you know, yeah,
I appreciate it. But you can go with your riding
the pastors. He may be helped to and you can
teach him and we'll put z.

Speaker 5 (01:19:03):
Don't miss out on teaching, do not mess, don't miss out,
don't miss out on teaching opportunities. No, it's the Lord's
put it in front of you. We had probably last night.
I taught all night long. We're fine, You're good. Are
any of them moving?

Speaker 6 (01:19:17):
No?

Speaker 5 (01:19:18):
Interesting? They're all interesting interesting. I mean, I don't know.
It'll probably take them an extra day because you won't help.
But at school, you you you take that to break
just however you do. All I'm saying is if they're moving,
they should hire a moving crew. And if they're not,
that's a they problem, not a problem, so they can
figure that out.

about this. Yeah, first time, right, and how long? This
will be the first time.

Speaker 5 (01:21:33):
If I stay now got a Monday morning wake up
call's compete, It'll be the first time I've gone to
a full not covering it for ESPN. It'll be the
very first time I've gone and stayed for if I've
been to you know New Orleans, have gone for part
of a game. I'm not talking about a college game.
College I go to. I went to another half of

(01:21:57):
the Cleveland Browns Texans game, left at half time and
went to the bar and watched the rest of it.
It was Baker Mayfield's first appearance here. So I've been,
let's see, in the business rooms, almost thirty years I
have been to. I have not finished an NFL game
in person outside of working it for countdown in ESPN,
since my since my playing career. Wow, since my playing career.

(01:22:22):
You're going to stay for the whole thing if it's close.
Of course, if it's three touchdown lead in the middle
of the fourth quarter, he gone, I'm out.

Speaker 1 (01:22:32):
But I have not. I love it on TV.

Speaker 5 (01:22:35):
I've told you all the reasons why, the analysis and
listened to the announcers and getting in and you can
rewind it while again all those things, and when I
say this is not hyperbolic, been to college games. I've
never seen a full NFL game in person since I
retired from football and since I've been since my broadcast

(01:22:57):
career started. Wow, I've been to NFL. I mean, like
the a and M was an A and M Tennessee game.
There was like eighteen overtimes. Yeah, and it was like
one hundred and ninety on the field and I was
on the side of Mazzoni was coaching him. And it's
by the end of the game, I'm like, I felt
like I played.

Speaker 1 (01:23:12):
I was like, that was one. It was a phenomenal game.
Like I need to stand NSC game.

Speaker 5 (01:23:17):
So plenty of college games, never this will be the
first game and if I stayed the whole thing, that
I will have gone to an NFL game and stayed
the whole time, or it'll be like the third game
I've been in since since I didn't cover the non
working and I didn't stay for either.

Speaker 1 (01:23:34):
Of the other two.

Speaker 5 (01:23:36):
Super Bowls, went and watched all of them on TV.
So I went to one and I watched half of
it was the Rams victory. The Rams lost to the
Patriots when they when Belichick shut down that greatest show
on Turf, did all the pregame show stuff for that,
stayed the first half, left, went to the hot to
the hotel by myself, watched it for a quarter and

(01:23:58):
then fourth quarter. I went into the production because I
have to do all the the post postgame analysis for
ten straight Super Bowls. So I go in with our
production person telling what tape I needed cut for they
so they could roll it during when you're getting teed
up by Berman. After never I've stayed for a full
game NFL game, and I've only been to like outside

(01:24:18):
of work. I've only been to like three of them,
been to the Super Bowl. But i'd preferred on TV. Yeah,
this will be the first full game I've ever been
to and stayed since I wasn't working in my career.

Speaker 1 (01:24:30):
So then this Sunday, you'll be in a suite, yes,
kicking it. Yes you can drink cold one probably, but
if you know drive and I won't drink more than that. Yeah,
maybe one.

Speaker 5 (01:24:40):
Okay, gotta get up three thirty the next morning, and
I've got to stay focused on again, I want to
watch the game. Yeah, right, But think about that. Do
you find that you think that's hype of I'd say
it's a fact.

Speaker 1 (01:24:49):
No, I don't think it's hyperbolic. I don't think it's from.

Speaker 5 (01:24:51):
Start to open, from tailgate tokay, opening kickoff to the
end of a game. I've never stayed and because I
preferred on TV, and I've and I I've been to
two regular season ones and didn't stay for either since
since I quit playing football. That's crazy outside of working
it for Sunday Countdown, You're nuts for a first guy

(01:25:15):
who loves but I don't like I'm going. I want
to spend with my friends. But this is this is
a this is like an epics I did like for
I just don't go. I watch it all on TV.

Speaker 1 (01:25:25):
Yeah, you mean a sweet dog. That's fine.

Speaker 5 (01:25:28):
Talk to Leon, Leon, appreciate you, holding brother. What's on
your mind this morning?

Speaker 20 (01:25:32):
Good morning, guys, it's we'll never forget. I am a
first responder. The morning that happened, I was cooking for
the department I was working for at the time because
we invent going on. I got a phone call on
the way to work, the way to work or bringing
the food. They saying, hey, the tiles field. I said, no,

(01:25:54):
that's not possible, of course.

Speaker 21 (01:25:56):
So I get to work.

Speaker 20 (01:25:57):
Everybody's glued to the TV and we're all saying, they're going, like,
what in the world's going on? The next day, when
I come back to work for regular duty, were getting
all kind.

Speaker 21 (01:26:08):
Of information being funneled in and the most everything was
at night. I was working night shift. All you can
hear is military aircraft. You can't you don't see any
commercial aircraft. You hear nothing but military aircraft. And I
was in the Air Force and the guys are asked me,
hey man, what is that?

Speaker 20 (01:26:24):
I said, I say fteen Eagle, I said F sixteen Falcon.
You know, I'm telling them what planes?

Speaker 2 (01:26:30):
What's what's what?

Speaker 12 (01:26:32):
What is that I hear of it so far?

Speaker 20 (01:26:34):
I said, that's probably a B two or B fifty
two flying over doing patrol. And that's all we heard
for two weeks at night.

Speaker 1 (01:26:43):
And it's one of the.

Speaker 20 (01:26:44):
Most eery feelings you'll ever want to hear when you
hear nothing else, nothing moved, And outside of COVID, it's
probably the strangest times in my career that I've actually
had no idea what was going to happen from from
one day till the next.

Speaker 21 (01:27:00):
So it's something you don't forget.

Speaker 20 (01:27:03):
I've been doing this quite a while, and to this day,
every scept to my lebyans, I reflect and I have
to compartmentalize it because I got to get past it,
because I said, I have a job to do, and
that's that's how we do it, we compartmentalize it, your
training kicks in, you do what you gotta do, and

(01:27:23):
then sports is a great, great, great outlet to kind
of teach, impress, recharge, get ready for the next day.
We thank you, guys, what you all do.

Speaker 1 (01:27:35):
Most of us appreciate what you do.

Speaker 2 (01:27:36):
Thank you so much.

Speaker 5 (01:27:38):
Well, appreciation goes tenfold your way. We appreciate you stuff
that I sometimes wonder if I could do what they do.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:27:47):
So I honored to have your call. Man, Thank you.
Let's get to Ruben real quick before we get to break. Ruben,
welcome in.

Speaker 22 (01:27:55):
What's going on guys, Good morning, Hey, just real quick.
I go on there and I love the show. I
do uh more listening than I do talking, So you
guys are the pros. I just enjoy the show, all right.
I just want to wish I wish my son day.
It's nine eleven. My son was born this day. And
those that meaning different, different meaning for a lot of

(01:28:16):
a lot of folks out there, But for me, you know,
it's a it's a blessing, you know, because he's my
he's my little boy. He's the last one for me here, right,
So you know, I said thirteen, You know, I have
to have that little he's a teenager now, he's got
to have that talking, that father's son talking. You know,
things are gonna start happening and changing things like that, right. So,

(01:28:37):
and then I also also reflect on this day and
where I was at and nine eleven and how that
impacted me and my my my life, my family life,
you know.

Speaker 1 (01:28:46):
And I was how we were.

Speaker 22 (01:28:48):
I was at work and we all got sent home
to be aware our families because we didn't know what
was going to happen. And but uh, I just wanted
to call in and say, I just wish my son
guy La happy birthday, but real quick. I also, I've
been thinking about Verlander for for a few days now,
and I you know, it's just reading different things and

(01:29:09):
knowing about he's he gonna be on the playoff roster,
you know. And uh as much as I mean, I'm
sure everybody like to have that happen, but I've kind
of seen, like, you know, the struggle that he's going through.
I think we're all seeing that. And excuse me, you know,
this is kind of like going back like when we
started in April, in the beginning of the year, you know,

(01:29:30):
struggling with some of the pitching and the hitting like yesterday,
and now we're in September, you know, five six months
to pass by, and then I'm thinking, I mean, we
don't have five or six months to see if JV's
gonna get it, you know, yeah, get you know, write the.

Speaker 1 (01:29:42):
Ship for himself. Little concerned, you know, I'm trying.

Speaker 2 (01:29:45):
That's why I was reallycalling.

Speaker 5 (01:29:46):
Is that?

Speaker 22 (01:29:46):
What do you guys think on that? You know, where
do you see? How do you see this plane out?
You know, like a guy of his statue, you know,
and then the veteran that he is and having issues,
you know, trying to get through it. You know, how
does he get out of this funk that he's then
to show that he can be on on this playoff

(01:30:08):
roster coming up?

Speaker 2 (01:30:09):
You know?

Speaker 22 (01:30:09):
That's that's really I was why I was calling in
two different things, but that's why I was calling. In
appreciate you guys, I'll listen, Thank you real, thank.

Speaker 1 (01:30:15):
You so much. We probably we get give him that
answer after break. Should we do that? Yeah, let's go
ahead and let just do that. And a happy birthday
to your son.

Speaker 5 (01:30:20):
I would imagine his son understands the deep significance of
not only what his dad's talking to him about, but
on this day, what is you know, whether that's talk
about that bittersweet, the bitterness of the hurt of today
and then your boy. Yeah, having your son good time
to you know, when you explain to your son why
it's even more special, right, it's crazy to think about that.

(01:30:41):
Thanks for the call, man, great stuff.

You're can get me on a rant, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:39:30):
What were you gonna go? What was the topic? Kids? Oh,
we're fnem kids. Still, is that what you're saying.

Speaker 5 (01:39:36):
Some kids keep like like if you have to put
a leash on your kids, we're putting harnesses on our kids.

Speaker 1 (01:39:42):
I'm trying to go to the grocery store and grocery
shop and you know, buy my five items for two
hundred and seventy five dollars and I shouldn't have to
weave in and out of three or four kids running
around with their head groceries are cheaper? No, go ahead?

Speaker 5 (01:39:54):
No, so why whoa whoa? We defend the kid? No,
you have a little patience there, pal. Oh okay, it's
their grocery store. Yeah right, this isn't a jungle gym.
This isn't the Discovery Zone.

Speaker 1 (01:40:08):
Maybe they're looking for some like cocoa puffs or some
fruit loops. They can do that next to their parents.

Speaker 5 (01:40:13):
Maybe some Captain crunch. So wait do you you run
around so you're bothered by it?

Speaker 9 (01:40:19):
Ye?

Speaker 1 (01:40:19):
Put you a little deep? What the kid do? I'm
I'm having to weave in and out of hib with
that with a cart with a cart because I got
like there's like two or three probably four year olds?
Now what what a what a what a burden? Yeah?
What a burden inconvenient to move your cart to the
left and the right. And you know what a big
inconvenience is? How dare them put you on a detour

(01:40:43):
in the grocery. The more the older that I get,
the more that h B is like soothing for me.

Speaker 5 (01:40:50):
And so when when kids are there, it ruins your
soothe mullent. It's like wellness program. Yes, it's like an
escape so, I mean it really puts you out to
have to turn the card a little to the right.

Speaker 1 (01:41:01):
Yeah, or I'm just gonna have to start running them over.
I would suggest that's your next move. Oh dude, that's

elbow to the how he felt? I don't know how
he's rise in the Uh?

pen back and so.

snare drum. You guys. Hey, right there, you guys will
be all right, yeah, oh my good, let me get
us some good tune. That's what that sounds like. That's
just atrocious. Felipe, welcome in.

Speaker 8 (01:47:08):
Good morning guys.

Speaker 23 (01:47:09):
Man. That song has got me feeling like I'm in
the American Revolutions.

Speaker 5 (01:47:12):
Damn right, saying it's like on the next holiday. You
know how they go out there and they do a reenact. Yeah, right,
the whole part of the.

Speaker 9 (01:47:21):
Of it.

Speaker 1 (01:47:24):
Horrible man. No, okay, that song was waiting before my time.

Speaker 8 (01:47:31):
Man, God, it has not aged well.

Speaker 5 (01:47:34):
Yeah, I didn't age well the fifteen minutes after it
was written and sung and people got down to that.

Speaker 1 (01:47:40):
Yeah, but you know it is a cut oh time
if use that's I'm talking about dog Hey, just because
you're saying that, I'm calling you Philippy for now on.

Speaker 6 (01:47:52):
I'm okay, man, h No.

Speaker 23 (01:47:59):
It's just one of the about you know, quick thing
about the astros man that we lost to bunting, and
we do need to, like like Brian said earlier, man,
we got to learn how to pick up these buns,
get these bunts, take out, get these outs with these buns.

Speaker 2 (01:48:12):
Man.

Speaker 23 (01:48:12):
But if they're gonna do to us, we might as
well try to do it to them.

Speaker 8 (01:48:15):
But that's last night's game.

Speaker 7 (01:48:17):
Today's another.

Speaker 18 (01:48:18):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:48:19):
Man.

Speaker 23 (01:48:19):
I just feel like, you know, one thing I do
think that Spottles should.

Speaker 2 (01:48:22):
Do with these pictures, these relief pictures or any picture that.

Speaker 8 (01:48:25):
We have out there.

Speaker 23 (01:48:26):
They try to go through the fielding and just say, hey,
look when the bunt happened, what is it going through
your mind? And this is what we should do in
each scenario, man, just instead of just like you know,
rushing to try to get that out, I would have
just gave up to out and.

Speaker 2 (01:48:36):
Get the force at first. But I guess that that
was last night, man.

Speaker 23 (01:48:41):
But one thing I do want to talk about is,
you know, we've been having all these calls about nine
to eleven, and you know where everybody was that day?

Speaker 7 (01:48:47):
And I saw a post last night.

Speaker 8 (01:48:49):
He's like, man, just remember that.

Speaker 23 (01:48:51):
You know, back in two thousand and one, I was
about eight years old. I was born in ninety three,
and man, I remember, you know, I just remember being
at school and then everybody just their parents are coming
to pick them up. I didn't know what was going on,
so I got home and I saw it on TV.
You know towers, I think the towers are already failed
by then.

Speaker 6 (01:49:07):
And my brother told me what was going on.

Speaker 7 (01:49:09):
You know, he was only two years older than me,
but uh, Eaton sort of had a concept.

Speaker 2 (01:49:13):
I didn't.

Speaker 23 (01:49:15):
Uh, But now that you think look back on it,
like everybody said, man, it's it's a tragedy that.

Speaker 2 (01:49:19):
We don't want to think about, but it happened, and
the best.

Speaker 23 (01:49:23):
The best day of unity that we've had, like during
that time with the day after, Like Brian said, it
sucks that tragedy had to happen for us to come together.
And I don't I don't care what what, what your
beliefs are, who you are, whatever, anything you betcher On Jon,
like John Shawn says, but you know when that day,
everybody came together and and all those people in New
York that just you know, stood stood strong and helped

(01:49:44):
each other out, strangers and all they became friends and
family that day.

Speaker 11 (01:49:49):
Uh.

Speaker 8 (01:49:49):
It's it's something that even now we feel it.

Speaker 23 (01:49:52):
And it's crazy to think that it's people that weren't
around when it happened. They weren't born yet. Had a
co worker, I was twenty nineties, nineteen when I told
him about nine eleven. He goes, I wasn't even around
then he goes what happened? He told me exactly what happened.
I said, I don't honestly, it was a horrible day.

Speaker 2 (01:50:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:50:10):
And you know what real quick, Felipe, is that you
make it about coming together and unity and all that.
I guarantee the first responders that ran into the building
into trouble and people that were up there that may
have been sitting next to somebody who thought completely different
than them, from a different walk of life, a different religion,
a different you know, different race, different political beliefs, that

(01:50:30):
didn't enter their mind one second going through that either
did the first responders. They weren't picking and choosing who
they'd save. So it's a shame. The bitter part of
it is that they will never forget, and that sucks,
and it's a good thing we don't forget, but that
we had to go through that for that unity. The
part that you'd like wish for every day is will
we ever have that again? Not what happened in nine

(01:50:51):
to eleven, but that feeling of you cared about the
guy sitting next to you, no matter what they thought.

Speaker 1 (01:50:55):
Right.

Speaker 5 (01:50:56):
I don't know, I don't know if we'll ever get
it back, But Hopefully it doesn't take another tragedy to
wake us up, because that was an alarming wake up call.

Speaker 1 (01:51:03):
There's no question.

Speaker 23 (01:51:04):
Definitely yeah it And just to say, like, you know,
COVID changed the world. Nine to eleven changed the world
as well. It changed the way we traveled to changed
the way we thought.

Speaker 8 (01:51:12):
Yeah everything, you.

Speaker 23 (01:51:13):
Know, security, they're like, there really is true evil out there,
and we've seen it throughout history, but man, that day
it hit the twenty first century, that man, there's still
no matter what's happened in the past one hundred years,
there's still true evil out there.

Speaker 8 (01:51:25):
And you know, we don't know what those people.

Speaker 1 (01:51:27):
Minds, and it's not gonna go away.

Speaker 23 (01:51:29):
But you know, the today that never forget and and
when what we went through and what we like we
persevered through it, it makes me even more proud to
be like, yeah, I'm an American, I'm a patriot, you know,
like that's why I stand like I always stand for
the flag, stand for the for the for the national anthem,
I stand for everything. And my wife, my wife told
me that to why do you stop at the games,

(01:51:49):
And you know, because you have to pay that respect.
You know, what we've been through but honestly, man like
I'm proud to be a patriot like I nothing could
take that away from me.

Speaker 1 (01:51:58):
I can't. I can't say anything less about this country.
The definitely.

Speaker 5 (01:52:03):
I find myself a time stand for the national anthem.
I try to do it at home when it comes
on and I'm watching, you know, when the singer like, yeah,
find myself kind of standing up like if I don't
whether it's o CD or like respect even though I
know you're not in the state, and I just find
myself I can stand up and move around for this
national anthem. When I say move around, just stand up,
and I don't know, there's a sense of pride and respect.

Speaker 1 (01:52:25):
I'm the same way. Yeah, I always will be. Seven

Speaker 4 (01:53:45):
Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven ninety where Astros and
Rockets play and real Texans talk.

Speaker 1 (01:53:54):
He does every single Wednesday. Seven one three two point
two five, seven ninety is the number to join Brian apparently,
what's happening? Hey, good morning guys.

Speaker 24 (01:54:02):
Hey, real quick, Brian, you may be a little too
young to remember this, Sean, you probably do. It was
my senior year two thousand and one when September eleventh hit.

Speaker 8 (01:54:11):
It was my It was my senior year at A
and M.

Speaker 24 (01:54:14):
I had just gone into class, heard the initial news
about the first hour and just thought, man, that's that's terrible.
By the time I got out of my eight am
more information started leaking out. But you guys may be
able to find the documentary. It's only about twenty minutes.

Speaker 18 (01:54:29):
Brian.

Speaker 1 (01:54:29):
I think you would find this fascinating.

Speaker 6 (01:54:31):
So after that, we wound up.

Speaker 24 (01:54:32):
Playing Oklahoma State about twelve days later, and we had
a red, white and blue out.

Speaker 1 (01:54:39):
We sold over one hundred thousand T shirts.

Speaker 24 (01:54:42):
Five students came together, red white and blue, decked out
the entire stadium for five dollars each. The T shirt
company that's big in College Station does all the student
run organization t shirts for greek life and student life
and all of that stopp printing everything out.

Speaker 1 (01:55:01):
They were running out of ink almost every.

Speaker 24 (01:55:04):
Day to keep up with demand.

Speaker 1 (01:55:06):
They could not. They were having to outsource some of this.

Speaker 24 (01:55:10):
They sold over one hundred thousand T shirts in less
than ten days. And if you just pull up Texas
A and M Red White and Blue out game, it's
one of the most phenomenal things I've ever seen. All
that money went to nine to eleven charities. It was
one of the most surreal things I'd ever seen. In
my time at ANM was full of tragedy. Unfortunately, my

(01:55:32):
sophomore year was the bonfire collapse. Early that morning, one
of my friends got killed in that, and so I
remember that nine to eleven.

Speaker 1 (01:55:40):
It was a very memorable year.

Speaker 24 (01:55:41):
And then a couple months after the bonfire, I was
a big sports fan. Obviously Peyton Stewart happened just a
really memorable time when I was in college. But if
you find the documentary on it, like I said, it's
only about twenty minutes, absolutely phenomenal. And then on the
Houston Oilers saw Sean I used to work for Oliver
years ago, right when he was our g I'm at

(01:56:02):
the Dynamo.

Speaker 6 (01:56:03):
We played that oiler song for him once and he.

Speaker 1 (01:56:05):
Even agreed and it hurt my heart.

Speaker 8 (01:56:08):
Season took older.

Speaker 1 (01:56:09):
He was like, God, is absolutely terrible.

Speaker 5 (01:56:11):
That coming from a former course, say, that's why, hey, Brian,
that's why Oliver luck is so smart. Okay, he knew
that song even sucked, and he was a Houston oiler.
There you go, there you go, Hey Brian, that's some great,
great insight from you. And I'll bet that pick I can't.
I'm gonna we'll look that up and find that picture.
I can't wait to see it.

Speaker 1 (01:56:30):
I got it.

Speaker 5 (01:56:31):
What a what a what an awesome not only just gesture,
but of rallying around it. And then thanks for sharing,
my brother. We appreciate you.

Speaker 1 (01:56:39):
Let's get the biscuit, Biscer. We'll have to get you
on the other side. Yeah, we're coming up on the
top of the hour. Don't go anywhere, biscuit. Yeah, this red, white,
and blue out is is pretty pretty awesome. One hundred
and eighty thousand dollars they raised, and all of it
went back to uh, well, five dollars. At one hundred
thousand dollars, isn't that five hundred? So it says in
this article, the proceeds totaled one hundred and eight eight

(01:57:00):
thousand dollars in those Maybe that was after they paid
their paid off the shirts and stuff. Maybe they cleared
a one hundred and eighty sometimes one hundred and eighty
thousand dollars. That's awesome, and that was sent to the
relief funds for the New York City Police and Fire departments.

Speaker 5 (01:57:13):
In about a week's worth of work. Yeah, incredible, impressive,
Yeah and awesome. It's pretty cool, man.

Speaker 9 (01:57:18):
There you go.

get from like a van go, but sometimes it may
feel like it was sort of pro painters, sort of
with the c sort of pro painters, and you know

Houston Astros. And each and every sort of pro business
is individually owned and operated and you can get it

(01:57:44):
It's expensive own a home, it's expensive to own a business.
Interior X here if you want it done right, whether
you're selling it, whether you're doing it for your O
for the eye, candy look and the optics that you
want it because you're living in it, or just you know,
to increase the value. Doesn't a great paint job increase
the value. And if it didn't, just the fact that
increases the value, in your eyes is a good thing.
And cert of Pro they are pros. Now come to

(01:58:06):
your house. They're timely, they're local, and they'll treat it
like it's their own home. And that's important to me
and I imagine it is to you. I feel the
boutique feel makes you feel like you're just not another

What's up my brother?

Speaker 12 (01:59:24):
Sad man Man, Seanleima.

Speaker 13 (01:59:28):
I hate to say this, man, but God forbid something
that not like nine to eleven half again, man, because
we we might not unite Sean the way we got
socidey today.

Speaker 12 (01:59:38):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:59:38):
We got people.

Speaker 12 (01:59:39):
But if you say live, I'm gonna say it right,
just to say it.

Speaker 2 (01:59:42):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:59:43):
Yeah, just to be different, just to be defiant. Yes,
no doubt to the fight. Man.

Speaker 12 (01:59:48):
We I don't think we can rally around anything.

Speaker 2 (01:59:51):
You know, I may be wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:59:52):
It's sad though we don't have It's damn sad, isn't
it sad? Samn? Sad Man, Sean lives Sean.

Speaker 12 (01:59:59):
When we get to talk like slavery was a good thing,
I'm like seriously debating slavery now, okay.

Speaker 5 (02:00:05):
Yeah, some of the things that heinous stuff we're debating over.
If it's okay, Yeah, it's it's it's listen and some
of the things we are debating, there's got to be.
There's got to be we got to be a little
more focused, right, But you're right, biscuit, I don't know
how I could argue that, seeing what we see every day,
how can you argue that it is You're exactly right,
even though you know the Skuy's blue, somebody out there

(02:00:26):
is going to be defined enough to say, no, it's raining,
even though it's not raining, and then and try to
convince your asset it is. It's it's it's alarming, and
God forbid that that does something like that would happen,
because you know, we don't need that. You know, humble
Pie gets delivered in a lot of ways, and we
sure don't need that, you know what I mean, We
sure don't.

Speaker 1 (02:00:46):
Yep.

Speaker 13 (02:00:46):
Well, let me say it is Lolima And I know
y'all don't like the song, But Sean, you could correct
me in it because you in on the West coast
and I'm in the Midwest. That's all put the city
Houston on the map. I don't even think we even
thought about the city Houston before it end. We talked
about Dallas and San Antonio. Everybody knew about that, but
nobody even Houston wasn't even on that on the radar

(02:01:08):
and that song and they played it on that Monday.

Speaker 12 (02:01:10):
Night shine and they had them palm bombs going and
Earl Campbell was running all over the dorbins.

Speaker 6 (02:01:14):
All over the field.

Speaker 12 (02:01:16):
That song put the city of Houston on the map.

Speaker 5 (02:01:18):
At least have got him thinking, because I do, I
do remember that, and I will tell you this and
when it when it that song that it's still awful.
But that's okay. But you're you're right one thing about it.
And I think you mentioned Earl Campbell. Think about the
bodies and the talent and the studs on that team,
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (02:01:34):
I mean, oh dude, come on, man, you start to
think about Listen.

Speaker 5 (02:01:42):
I'm still afraid of Robert Brazil, Okay, and I I
better mattress backs at Gallery Furniture. And I've been a
fan of his, but he was a Yeah, we've heard
from that that group, Alvin Bethay and and him and
Earl Campbell.

Speaker 1 (02:01:53):
They were loaded with full grown men.

Speaker 5 (02:01:55):
You know what I'm saying, nasty And that was if
you if you needed a reminder of how tough football was,
that they would knock you around. Man, it was that
they were a fun frigging watch and Earl Campbell made
you pay if you were a defender.

Speaker 1 (02:02:09):
Though, you know you're right that.

Speaker 5 (02:02:10):
I don't know if it's the song or the team,
but when that song was introduced, you write it like
everybody like, whoa, what's this?

Speaker 1 (02:02:15):
And then there you went. The rest is history.

Speaker 12 (02:02:19):
The rest is history. And like you say, Sean United,
we stand divided, we fall man, that's all.

Speaker 5 (02:02:24):
Out of that to say that there's no true statement,
that's for sure. Biscuit, appreciate your brother, Thank you.

Speaker 1 (02:02:32):
Are we sure that song put Houston on the mask.

Speaker 5 (02:02:34):
I think what he's saying is people hadn't heard it before,
and it did on that night time when it was
just them, and then all of a sudden they back
it up with with that group of players.

Speaker 1 (02:02:45):
Yeah, of course it was about the players, but it
was like, oh, what's that cut? Was that song?

Speaker 18 (02:02:51):
Right?

Speaker 1 (02:02:51):
But dude, but he's you weren't right, you were, you know,
but he was.

Speaker 5 (02:02:57):
And you know in the national scope what happened was
then the team validated. Were the oilers, you know, we're
the love you blue oilers, and dude, there was some
you never got a chance to see Robert Brazil or
guys like uh but theya.

Speaker 1 (02:03:12):
Who what did you just say? Yeah, I think you
said Robert bethea no sor I was whispering Robert Brazil.
Oh okay, sorry my bad he tape up those what
what the did you just say? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (02:03:26):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (02:03:27):
They they were. They were loaded and tough.

Speaker 5 (02:03:31):
They can not only whoop your rear in on the
football field, but they take you out in the parking
lot and teach you a lesson too if they needed to.

Speaker 1 (02:03:36):
That's how tough they were.

Speaker 8 (02:03:37):
Man.

Speaker 1 (02:03:37):
And I guess those pomp poms are just they were rocking.

Speaker 5 (02:03:41):
Yeah, hair parted down the middle, man, you know, feathered
on the sides, awesome stuff. Do you know about feathering
your hair on the sides on the middle?

Speaker 7 (02:03:49):
Much?

Speaker 1 (02:03:50):
Man? Not much about it. You know what you just started?
You need to recognize on who love you blue? Yeah? Fools?
Yeah don't yeah, fools? Better recons triple e? Why do
you why do you do this? Here we go now,

(02:04:11):
this put the Astros on the map. Dog tripley. Do
you know what the most important word in the English
language is?

Speaker 6 (02:04:17):
No?

Speaker 2 (02:04:17):
No?

Speaker 1 (02:04:18):
No, yes, every time.

Speaker 5 (02:04:26):
I got news for this, and Biscuit's gonna agree with
me on this. This didn't put the Astros on the
map back in the damn ass will tell you that
probably back in the cold forty five days. Come on, man, Yeah,
this will make you drink about forty cold forty five
so will.

Speaker 1 (02:04:39):
The oilers are number one. You're not getting.

Speaker 5 (02:04:43):
You're not getting any argument for me. I think theme songs,
for the most part in pro sports freaking blow. Okay,
none of them pretty good. All I want to hear
is John fascind to talk about you know that autumn,
to voice over that greater stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:04:59):
Yeah, don't give me all these theme songs. Okay, I
want yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:05:04):
Because you know what happens if your team still sucks,
then the theme song people like, your team's gotta win
when your song sucks, it really does.

Speaker 1 (02:05:13):
No, I'll take I take that back. There was some
really rough years for the Texans, and the clay Walker
song was still a banger.

Speaker 5 (02:05:19):
Stop well, the clay Walker song was actually better than
the Texans.

Speaker 1 (02:05:23):
I gotta tell you. At a certain point, I gotta
tell you a story real quick. I worked you know
where lock of bar Golf course is solid ball striker.
So I worked at lock of Bar golf course for
like two and a half years. I was like nineteen,
I was like eighteen, nineteen, twenty years old. There was
a guy there was a guy there that worked there.
I'm not gonna throw him nder the bus by any means,
but he was a massive Texans fan. I'm talking the

(02:05:46):
most massive massive Texans fan. He played golf in a
Jersey then that's too much. I mean, I'm talking he did.
He didn't play golf, thanks thankfully. But yeah, I'm talking
like anytime any because in lock of Art. It's a
different world out there, man. The McNair's remembers Thereic Clyde,
Druts go on and on and on. Jim Crane's a
member there obviously before he was with the Astros. It
is there, No, they're there are I think four women

(02:06:08):
that work there. Women are not allowed except for one
night of the year, the Christmas Party. I got some
buddies that are members there. Yeah. It's a different world
out there, yep. And so you know, we would be
offer tickets because the McNair's were members there. Other players
would come out and stuff like that. So we were
offer tickets and we went for a preseason game. I
had never been to a Texans game yet. How old

(02:06:30):

Advertisement for the Sean Salisbury Show continues.

Speaker 1 (02:20:54):
It's that time of the week.

Speaker 5 (02:20:55):
Let's welcome in Astro's general manager Dana Brown of the show. Yes,
we do every Wednesday at nine thirty we get a
chance to talk to the first place, Astro's general manager,
Dana Brown. Good to have you in, Dana. We'll get
to you yesterday's game in a second. Let let's start
with Verlander. What are you seeing and kind of your
overall thought process. He's JV and he's got a great history,

(02:21:18):
but still trying to find his way here. But the
velocity was up. So give us your overall thought on
Justin Verlander moving forward and now, yes, velots, he.

Speaker 6 (02:21:28):
Was up to ninety seven. Breaking ball looked pretty good.
JV's concern right now, it's just this commands a little
off and so you know, he's missing some of his spots.
So he got hit a few times. But ultimately I'm
always told, you know, you guys and the listeners look,
pay attention to the back of the baseball card. These

(02:21:48):
guys will they will show up, they will get it done.
I mean, you know, for him to be throwing ninety
seven and throwing that breaking ball aways throwing it, I
think he's going to be fine. It's just a matter
of location. And you know what I mean by that.
It's just you gotta make a quality pitch, you know
at times.

Speaker 5 (02:22:04):
Hey, and you know you mentioned the back of the
baseball card and in his history, which has been first
ballot Hall of Fame, but when it comes to production
and he's got three or four more starts, probably guest Dana,
probably before the postseason, so to get it right and
get the command down, but it'd be more I think
concerning if he was thrown at ninety two. But that
being said, how much will the back of the baseball
card decide whether he's in the rotation or not if

(02:22:27):
this is what we see kind of up and down
the next three or four starts.

Speaker 6 (02:22:33):
Yeah, I mean we're going to let him go through
his spring training come back, right, That's what he's probably
going through right now. And so you know, we have time,
you know, with JG. So you know, ultimately, as you mentioned,
he listened, this guy is up to ninety seven. If
a guy was ninety two, I would be really concerned,
and then we'll be a different discussion. But when the

(02:22:55):
stuff looks good and it's a matter of location, it
usually means you're a little bit rusty. And ultimately, I mean,
if you could imagine, you know, the way Brown is
throwing it, the way Javiers, I mean, Valdez is throwing it,
the way Kakuchi's throwing it. You had Verland during that mix,
and opposedly, I mean that is really pretty special. So, uh,

(02:23:17):
JV's gonna be all right. You know, this guy is
a competitor, you know, and and so I think he's
gonna turn the corner. I'm I'm not worried in the least,
and you guys know, I'll let you know if I'm worried.

Speaker 1 (02:23:29):
Right, I think we're.

Speaker 6 (02:23:29):
Gonna be all right. I'll have the heart beat and
the stomach for this, so we're gonna be fine.

Speaker 1 (02:23:33):
Let me get to something that we know. People just
we just don't talk about it much anymore. We don't
see it much. Bunting.

Speaker 5 (02:23:37):
Now, we saw Oakland in the game last night, and
not only bunting but defending bunch. But I want to
get to bunting in itself. Danny, you mentioned small balls
important and we talked about that on here. You know
you want to slug, but you mentioned it's it's tough
on pictures when you can play small ball and beat
teams that way. So win did I mean? You've got
some old school and you with some new school philosophy.
So when did we decide it moving runners over with

(02:24:01):
the bunt? When did it we kind of just push
it aside?

Speaker 1 (02:24:03):
In why not?

Speaker 5 (02:24:04):
Just here I'm talking about baseball overall. Just you're insight
because you were there through this when people used to
bud all the time. Why don't we do it anymore?
Is it just a metric a field thing. Yeah, why
why are we doing it anymore?

Speaker 6 (02:24:16):
It's a new school. I think it's a new school,
uh point of of you need slug. So I think
people looking at the slug presentents, you know, they're trying
to put teams away early instead of button or run
here and to run there. And I think it's more like, look,
let's go for the kill and uh, you know, let's
get four or five runs and put these guys out

(02:24:37):
of out of the way. And so, you know, when
you see a team that bunts, it's kind of like, oh,
we better, we better get back to our spring training
mode of you know, pitcher fielding practice, the pfps that
we do, you know, to you know, to get it right.
And so sometimes it's a simple ast fielding the ball,
not trying to do too much. Throw at the first base,

(02:24:59):
get it now, you know, to defuse the rally. And
and so I think the bunting, you know, is going
to be a big part of things in the postseason.
You know, you got to play a little bit of
small ball at times, you know, especially when you've got
to pitchers do going and there's not many runs being scored,
but you know that's that's the case of last night.

(02:25:20):
You know, a few bunchs, you know, a few misplays,
you lose track of your pictures, fielding practice, the pfps
that you do, you know all year throughout the year,
and you know we we pretty much got blindsided by
it last night.

Speaker 5 (02:25:36):
Well, Dan, let me ask you. Let's go back to
spring training. Let's look at the offensive side of it.
You mentioned small ball, because you're going to face everybody's
best in the postseason, so you got to manufacture some
runs sometimes. So how much do teams and I'll refer
to the astros you're there, in truth, how much do
guys really work on bunting during spring training?

Speaker 18 (02:25:54):
Now?

Speaker 6 (02:25:54):
In truth, yeah, I think they, you know, all the
hitters when they get in cage, they all lay down
a few bunths.

Speaker 1 (02:26:02):
A few right, but dedicated to it. Right.

Speaker 6 (02:26:06):
It's not like it used to be where you know,
you spend a ton of time bunning, you know, because
ultimately you're trying to put teams away today because you've
gotta have slug in order to win. I mean, if
you don't have slug, you can't you can't get to
the postseason by bunning. Let me just make that very
clear fact a fact, Right, You're gonna have to slug.
So bunning is a part of this game. It's a

(02:26:28):
small part, but you're gonna have to slug. And so
I think guys work on bunning daily when they daily,
when they get into the batter's box, you know. But
ultimately it's not as big as it used to be
in our sport, but it's still a part of it
and you're still gonna have to do it at times,
you know. So it's it's gonna be important at times.

Speaker 5 (02:26:49):
Ass GM Dana Brown for his weekly Wednesday visit. We
always look forward to it here on Sports Talk seven
ninety to Kyle Tucker, is it simply just timing for
him this time to get himself right now, to get
his bat back going. I think he was zero for
six last night. But is it I mean, nothing tender,
nothing with an injury. Is it simply just seeing pitches

(02:27:09):
and reps?

Speaker 6 (02:27:11):
Yeah, I think it's timing, you know, because if you
watches at bats, he's having long at bats, he's seeing
a lot of pitches. That's usually a good sign. But
it's a matter of him squaring it up. He's square
it up to one to left field that he hit
it towards the wall. But it's a matter of just
squaring it up and getting your timing right. And so
I think he's gonna have to go through this period.

(02:27:33):
Remember he didn't get a you know, a rehab assignment.
You know, we need him in our lineup right now,
and we want him to get you know, those big
league at bats before the postseason because we've got to
get him ready, and so you know, we're kind of
you know, putting them in the fire a little bit.
But ultimately, if he watches at bats, he's having long

(02:27:54):
at bats. You know, when guys start getting out in
three pitches. You know, if you get yourself out in
two pitches, those those things are a little bit concerning.
But watching at bats, he's running some deep counts, he's
seeing the ball, he's seeing a lot of pitches, and
it's just a matter of time, you know how it is.
Oh yeah, you get that breakout hitting hits coming bunches

(02:28:15):
and you get that breakout hit, and before you know it,
you're three for four and you're riding that wave to
the next day. And so it's a matter of timing.
But he's gonna be fine, and.

Speaker 5 (02:28:24):
The timing hopefully will be perfect as we pushed towards
these you know, these last games and then get into
the postseason. All right, let me switch to Jeremy pana
Maybe we were so spoiled by his glove and arm
and the way he's performed, but an alarming rate of
airs this year, Dana, what are you seeing different than
maybe we are?

Speaker 1 (02:28:39):
Why?

Speaker 6 (02:28:41):
Yeah, it's the same thing, like like hitting. His timing
fielding is timing. You know, you remember the one area
he made you know, uh, when Salvi Perez hit the
ball to him. Oh yeah, he had a lot of time.
He rushed it. It's all timing right, and so sometimes
you got to remember who's running and and and you
have to you know, you have to get your steps right.

(02:29:03):
And I think he's been a little out of sync.
But you know, we all know Jeremy Pinya is a
pretty special shortstop. You know, we can't lose track of
all of those great plays that he makes. And you know,
he's taken us off the hook a ton, and so
you know, let's not forget Jeremy pinion is one of
those special shortstops. And you know, I say, during the

(02:29:27):
course of the season, all of your players are going
to go through somewhat of a funk. The key to
winning is you've got to get it all together, you know,
put it all together at the same time. And I
think once we get in that mode, which I think
I feel it's coming soon, I think we're gonna run
off some wins. I think we're gonna roll into the

(02:29:47):
postseason and we'll get deep, you know, into the postseason.
But you know, our guys, make no mistake. You know,
Jeremy Piney is a really good shortstop. Let's not lose sight.
You know of that.

Speaker 5 (02:30:00):
And I think this, and we know what he's got
those postseason chops when he was the MVP special And
one last thing, do you think there's any when when
you're going through those tough times, Dana. We've talked about
mental toughness, in which I believe he has and I
know you do too, But is there any part of
the mental yips right now going through him or is
it simply just timing or do you think that man
he's pressing, gripping the ball a little harder and not

(02:30:22):
doing the things he'd normally do because of the young
characteristic airs that he's had.

Speaker 2 (02:30:27):
No.

Speaker 6 (02:30:28):
I think it's all timing.

Speaker 2 (02:30:29):
You know.

Speaker 6 (02:30:29):
It's like and we all know this, it's like dancing.
You know, you have to be able to dance to
play shortstop. This guy can dance, and we know he's
really good with his timing. He's just he's just a
little off with some of his steps. Sometimes it's you know,
you know, he forgets who's running and so you know,

(02:30:50):
you get into a funk in this game and one
hundred and sixty two. But I want to remind people
that this guy is pretty special. Let's not get down
on Jeremy Pinya, because this guy is pretty special. And
you know, we know that he can play some defense
and he can carry you with the bat at times.

Speaker 1 (02:31:05):
Absolutely.

Speaker 5 (02:31:06):
Dana Brown for a couple more minutes here on Sports
Talk seven to ninety Weekly Visit, Danny. You remember that
show I Dream a Jeanie. You know the show I'm
talking about, right, It was our it was in our time, right, Yeah,
all right, So Barbarie and I.

Speaker 1 (02:31:17):
Dream a Janie.

Speaker 5 (02:31:17):
She's given you one wish that's something maybe not fixed
or adjusted. She's given you one for the stretch run
in the postseason that needs adjusted.

Speaker 9 (02:31:27):
What is it?

Speaker 6 (02:31:30):
Yeah, I think the big thing with us is just
the timely hits. Think about it. We've been pitching very well,
and so we just you know, like last night, you know,
we only get a couple of runs. You know, we
lose that game that we had a couple more timely hits,
you know, it's it's a different story. And so I
think it's all about the timely hitting, particularly because of

(02:31:54):
the way we're pitching right now. If we could get
those timely hits, you know, I think it makes the
world the difference. And you'll you'll see us get get
rolling three runs and and and and uh, you know
the game last night that's not us, you know.

Speaker 23 (02:32:10):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (02:32:11):
And a lot of people left in scoring position last night, right, Dana.
I think that was probably maddening for you last night,
because they left a lot of people in scoring position
and on base that they that you've seen in the
past them drive those in. That's probably part of what
you're talking about about the timely hitting.

Speaker 1 (02:32:25):
I imagine, yes, beause.

Speaker 6 (02:32:27):
Wanting to do too much. You know, we are guys,
you know, and and we started getting out early in
the count, right, and so it's like you get away
from your game. Look let's see some pitches. Let's make
sure he throws the ball in our zone. And then
you're trying to do too much. These guys all know,
you know, the fans are going crazy, they're cheering, and
and these guys are trying to get it done. And

(02:32:48):
so sometimes you come out of yourself and you swing
at that ball just off the plate because you think
it looks good. And that's what the guy was doing
last night. The guy, if you watched the pitcher he series,
he was nibbling around the edges, trying to entice us
to come out of our our zone, and our guys
started to chase a little bit off the plate. We
have to really hone in and and and and get

(02:33:10):
those timely hits. But we're gonna have to make the
pitcher come into our zone and not chase his pitch.
But yeah, that's what I would say. If we can
get those timely hits, this team is gonna roll because
we're pitching right now, and I think we're gonna pitch
all the way through the postseason. You know, a few
timely hits, the score six to seven runs and the
game is over in.

Speaker 1 (02:33:29):
The last thirty second pitch.

Speaker 5 (02:33:30):
So well, yeah, in the last thirty seconds, I have
you Chas McCormick, the Bregman's playing, but just kind of
the overall injuries and how you feel about the healthier
team right now.

Speaker 6 (02:33:41):
Yeah, I mean we got these micks right now. You know,
Chads McCormick, if you know, watching the game, they saw
him running to the wall. Got a little bit of
riskless comfort right now. Hopefully he'll be fine today. We'll
see what it feels like. It's all about now the
soreness is is it gonna be too sore? And you know,
we'll know a little bit more today, get some imaging

(02:34:01):
and find out what's going on in there. But you know,
ultimately I think it's I just think it's a little discomfort.
You've got smashed up against the wall there, and you
know we've got the Bregman, you know, with the comfort
in the elbow. He's day to day. So we have
a little, you know, a few knicks, you know, we
have Tucker's timings a little bit off. I think we're
just gonna iron this thing out right here at the

(02:34:24):
end of the season. Eighteen games left, Let's get on
all cylinders and let's take it to another level.

Speaker 5 (02:34:31):
Four and a half game lead, eighteen to go, and
you sound like you're in good spirits and that means
a win today, so we look forward to it. We
always look forward to our Wednesday visit, my man, and
we'll look forward to doing it next week and hopefully
be on a good winning streak at then and everybody
will be right. So we look forward to always our
visit with you, and thank you for your time.

Speaker 6 (02:34:50):
Can't wait to meet next week. Hopefully we got some
real good news. Let's try to put this thing away.
Let's go astro than There you go.

Speaker 1 (02:34:56):
That's Dana Brown. Great stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:34:58):
We'll come back and discuss as we wind up a
Wednesday edition of Sewn salesby Show Western Wednesday. That's Dana Brown.
You can catch that at Sports seven ninety dot com.
Come right back, The Sean Salisbury Show continued. MM just
check it out back of the baseball card? Yeah yeah,

(02:35:20):
well how many times have they said back in the
baseball card this year?

Speaker 1 (02:35:24):
Sean?

Speaker 4 (02:35:24):
Sure?

Speaker 5 (02:35:26):
Well, I haven't done the math. The back of the
baseball card does matter.

Speaker 1 (02:35:32):
The question is it? Does you know?

Speaker 5 (02:35:34):
And the in the whole big scheme of things, But
I don't They're not going to make decisions based on that,
I hope and I don't think.

Speaker 1 (02:35:43):
I mean, come on, man, we yeah, I know. That's ever.
That's people's favorite.

Speaker 5 (02:35:51):
The favorite and saying of all time in Houston sports.
Back of the baseball card. That's similar to when I
say the lifetime achievement, that's what. That's what the back
of the baseball card is. Yeah, man, and it matters,
and it's important in the big scheme of things. But
when it comes to the urgency of that, you can't
make decisions based on the back of a baseball card.
If the production's not there, then if Justin Verlander is

(02:36:14):
still in his you know, spring training mode and trying
to get himself ready, uh huh, that if the history
repeats itself, then the guy will be ready to go
and he'll fix this in a couple, you know, in
the next start or two and be ready to go.
But I think it's something you have to at least
have an eye towards it to find out where he
fits in because right now, my opinion, not the general manager,

(02:36:35):
who's opinion is far more important than mine and Joe
spot is the rest of it. My opinion is as
much as I love Justin Verlander fromber Hunter, Brown and
Kakouchi are the first three you have to run out.
Then you make a decision after that, at least as
we sit today, but we're not starting the postseason day.
But you still got to run JV out there and
find out can he get this right heading into the postseason.

(02:36:56):
And the reason why you're going to let him do
that is because of the back of the baseball card.

Speaker 1 (02:37:00):
Bingo Bingo, Bengo Bongo. He is Sean Salisbury. Our producer
is Triple Emmanuel Elmore. Hopefully Astles can get back in
the win. Calm tonight. Before we get out of here,
