Dan with an opportunity to win a Cincy Shirts gift
card on Friday. Here's our Wednesday edition of Talkbacks.
Speaker 9 (00:59):
By your nos Ken from Tuscany.
Speaker 10 (01:03):
Here been a couple of days since I checked in.
Faith helped me a nasty blow. I got sick.
Speaker 9 (01:10):
Oh, Lake Como was amazing, Milan was nice. My wife
got to see Venisauce, stayed in the hotel room sick. Anyway,
I am now in Florence, y'all, and it is truly amazing.
Speaker 10 (01:27):
So and the Red sock. Oh many traveling the world.
I hope you feel better.
Speaker 11 (01:33):
You know, I'm not the least bit super prestious generally,
but this whole business about the Reds playing sub five
hundred teams over the next month was a temptation of faith.
So over reagious, not only not now superstitious about this season,
I'm like precise field stitches.
Speaker 6 (01:47):
It's as though the baseball got.
Speaker 10 (01:49):
Himself embodied John Goodman.
Speaker 11 (01:51):
With a baseball bat standing over a shiny Ray Corvette, going,
do you see what happens?
Speaker 12 (01:55):
Larry?
Speaker 13 (02:00):
Hello, this is former President Ronald Reagan and the Well.
Speaker 14 (02:03):
Well.
Speaker 13 (02:04):
For weeks, I've been excited to have tickets to tonight's
game honoring Pete Rose. But then after hearing the news
of his reinstatement yesterday, my excitement level went through the roof.
And now I'm hearing even bigger, more exciting news. After
another Red's loss last night, Nick Krawl is apparently open
(02:24):
to bringing Pete Rose back as manager. Oh it's the
rumor that'll never die.
Speaker 15 (02:31):
Hey, I've been listening to your show, just started listening
to it, and all these Pacer fans keep calling insane.
I've been a lifetime fan.
Speaker 10 (02:38):
That's cool.
Speaker 15 (02:39):
These guys are just on the bandwagon, because I guarantee
if the Pacers weren't winning, nobody would call no. But
nobody's that good of a Pacer fan. I live in
the state of Indiana. I don't know any Indiana patient fans,
none that actually admitted. So all these phone calls that
you're getting from Indianapolis and all that fake fans.
Speaker 8 (02:57):
Did I miss.
Speaker 10 (03:00):
Up to ten thirty three this morning? I'm assuming maybe
that was meant for Clinton Yates.
Speaker 7 (03:04):
Okay, hey, it's got Happy Wednesday, and I quote, what
are we doing?
Speaker 12 (03:11):
Man?
Speaker 7 (03:12):
Man?
Speaker 16 (03:13):
The Red's a terrible man, losen to the White Sox
man Tito Francona, Man, are you serious?
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Man?
Speaker 10 (03:22):
We love you, Vinny, not all of us.
Speaker 13 (03:25):
Man.
Speaker 17 (03:26):
Hey, guys, it's Boomer Drew from South Bend, screw Rob
Brent Manfred screw MLB, screw Cooper's town, and I hope
Pete Rose's family tells him to go stick it sideways.
Speaker 10 (03:40):
Okay, good day, guys, Well thank you. What does that accomplish?
Speaker 18 (03:44):
I don't know, Tony, as says Johnny from out healthy here,
I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
Speaker 19 (03:53):
I don't believe the rumors.
Speaker 18 (03:54):
I don't know if Buffalo Cincinnati's going to be that
Sunday night opening game.
Speaker 7 (03:58):
All I'm saying is.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
If it's leave one.
Speaker 18 (04:00):
Please know nothing is least exciting to me about getting
excited for an NFL season starting.
Speaker 10 (04:06):
And guess who it is? The Cleveland Rounds.
Speaker 20 (04:09):
I'm actually in someone's in the.
Speaker 10 (04:11):
Car right now with me. That's works up in Cleveland.
Speaker 20 (04:14):
I'm doing this on purpose.
Speaker 10 (04:15):
Anyhow, you guys have a great day.
Speaker 8 (04:17):
Thanks Johnny.
Speaker 10 (04:18):
Good to hear from you.
Speaker 20 (04:19):
Hey, Tony, the first five minutes at the top of
the show, you gave some really heartfelt things about Pete Rose,
and I appreciate that. My question is, did you hold
your hand over ADDIE's mouth like Andy Mack did with
Joe Sunderman when Xavier beat the number one you see Bearcats?
Speaker 8 (04:40):
No, I did not know.
Speaker 10 (04:41):
People forget we're in different rooms.
Speaker 21 (04:43):
I did not.
Speaker 10 (04:44):
We're like fifty feet away from each other. I just
turned my mic off and let Tony speak.
Speaker 16 (04:50):
Pylas Hank Hill here and Bob, I'm going tell you
what another maddening lost last night. And Boh, I'm happy
to hear the Pete Rose news. You know, I know
as a person he may have done some things to
get his hands dirty, and well, I don't believe that
any of us have perfectly clean hands. And was he
(05:10):
a great person, Well that's to be debated. Well, he
was a great ballplayer and he deserves to be in
the Hall.
Speaker 10 (05:16):
That's all I know.
Speaker 12 (05:18):
I did.
Speaker 10 (05:19):
I agree with that.
Speaker 20 (05:21):
Down along the Ohio River tonight at Great American Ballpark,
you will hear coom.
Speaker 9 (05:27):
Bye, my Pete.
Speaker 10 (05:31):
Coom bye.
Speaker 20 (05:35):
You know, Pete, I don't really care what you did
off the field, that's your own business. But on the field,
you were one of the world's greatest motivated, driven athletes ever.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
We love you. I'm going to give a slightly different
take on Pete Rose. First of all, though I want
to say God rest his soul and I'm so happy
for his family. Pete Rolls does not belong in the
Hall of Fame. And it's not because of the gambling.
The gambling I can passed, even though I think it
was more nefarious than people let on. When you don't
bet on your team to win, to meet that's an
indication to bookies you think they're gonna lose. For me,
(06:08):
as a father of young girls, that's the part of
Pete Rose the story that I cannot get past, and
that's why I still believe you should not be in
the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
Okay, what this is your say?
Speaker 16 (06:18):
Pete Rose a perfect man? No, certainly not. But I'm
not either. Heck, one time I mowed my lawn against
the grain. Lord forgive me. But anybody of those nine
percent on that pole need to look themselves right in
the mirror and then put them stones down, because being
in the Hall ain't about being a great person. It's
(06:41):
about being a great ballplayer.
Speaker 10 (06:42):
That's fair. That's fair. What'd you do on the field?
By the way, quick update revive Fitnessystems dot com. Pole question,
what's your reaction to Pete being reinstated by Major League Baseball?
We have almost a dead heat between about damn time
and too late. It's meaningless. Twenty six percent are in different.
Eight point seven percent say don't care, Pete sucks.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
Happy bye God, Peter Edward Rose Day. Everybody glad they're
honoring the hit Kings of Night. So the Lifetime Band
has been lifted. Real tough decision there, Rob Manford, the
band's dead.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
He's the word Lifetime Band being over.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
And anyways, it almost feels like one last jab at
Pete after he's dead and gone. Maybe that's just my opinion.
And if the Hall of Fame was the come calling
after this, I'm Pete's family. I tell him to go
kiss my Cleveland Browns man.
Speaker 10 (07:34):
And why would I say kiss my Cleveland Browns?
Speaker 5 (07:37):
Well, I say it because of this. The band could
have been lifted years ago with the row intact that
he can never manage again baseball again, but be eligible
as a player. Come on, there's people on Hall of
Fames that's Donet far worse than what Pete did.
Speaker 10 (07:50):
Do I condone it absolutely, don All right, dad? Hear that?
Speaker 14 (07:58):
Oh oh no, II God is happy hump Day, Austin.
Everything you said about the Cincinnati Reds ball club is
so spot on. I mean, I have never heard better
words spoken about a ball club. And yes, the biggest
disappointment to me is that I thought Terry Francona would
have a bigger effect on the culture. What I saw
(08:18):
last night really put the nail in the coffin for me.
Spencer Stare getting to second, barely shaking his little dicey hand.
Speaker 12 (08:26):
So yeah, I'm.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
What's up, guys, Big Cahune in Kentucky. Got a little
schedule prediction for you.
Speaker 10 (08:35):
What I think is gonna be just a.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Vision weekend of September five through seven, clean sweep of
the Mets, right back in the playoff contention. Monday Night
Football the eighth, the Lions come to the nasty natty
Cincinnati hosting the Lions week one Monday Night Cool.
Speaker 8 (08:57):
That would be fun.
Speaker 21 (08:58):
Here's a little talk back for you, all right, Austin,
shut up about Pete Rose.
Speaker 8 (09:05):
Never solid play or just shut up?
Speaker 18 (09:08):
Man.
Speaker 10 (09:11):
I expected that today. I mean, god, it's been forty
years since the dude played. A lot of people haven't
seen him play. Hey guys, good show again.
Speaker 15 (09:19):
My condiction for this today that if the Reds keep
this up, keep losing, tarm Francona is going to step down,
saying that his illness came back and they're going to
step down to keep him face. He's too good of
a manager to do this. I only I get it.
It's only forty games, but if this continues, I can
see them. I don't want to say excuse, but I
(09:39):
want to say that they'll say, like his illness came
back and he because like what he did with Cleveland,
he didn't feel like he can.
Speaker 10 (09:48):
Take a page out of the old Urban Meyer playbooks.
What we're saying.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Your caller, Mark the Florist. Yeah, what makes him think
Ellie still hits the home run in the ninth inning
if Benson scores? I mean, why do people think this?
Does he not understand how the multiverse works. If Benson scores,
(10:16):
it sets forth a whole series of events. You don't
know if Ally still hits.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
The home that's true. That is how baseball works.
Speaker 22 (10:25):
Hey, Austin and Tony, It's Brandon Indianapolis. I just wanted
to say, as far as the Reds are concerned, I'm
really starting to lose interest. The reason I'm starting to
lose interest it just seems like the same old thing.
I'm really glad they're honoring Pete Rose, but I'm finding
other things to do. Sach has watched the NBA playoffs.
I'm really proud of our pacers around here. But anyways,
(10:46):
that's just my thought. Have a great day, OK, thank you.
I'm glad they're honoring Pete Rose.
Speaker 10 (10:58):
This is DJ. Hey, guys, great job summarizing the Red situation.
You know, Austin, I think you hit the nail on
the head. I mean, they're just boring to watch, especially
at the plate.
Speaker 23 (11:09):
And while I was a big proponent of bringing Francona in,
it's the same team, it's the same mistakes, the same
let's get him tomorrow and Francona and like the rest
of the organization is just way too comfortable with losing.
Speaker 10 (11:22):
And you know that's the thing that's so frustrated.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Okay, Yeah, Tony, Austin, Alex and Silver Dud and buddy
of mine who's a big green Bay fan, and we've
already planned on going to Green Bay for the game,
just waiting to see when it will be.
Speaker 18 (11:40):
Now, I'm in the camp of I want it to
be cold. I want to go to Green Bay when
it's freezing. I want to experience Lambeau like that, because
they went last year on the Hottes Day for.
Speaker 7 (11:52):
The Colts game and he said it wasn't as fun.
Speaker 18 (11:54):
What does your guys takes on that.
Speaker 10 (11:57):
I would prefer it to be I'd love it to
be zero to I wanted to be mid October. I
think it would be absolutely perfect.
Speaker 21 (12:04):
As always ripping in Natty out here's Sonny hot Son?
What up? Tony?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
What Yoh?
Speaker 10 (12:10):
My Reds. What are y'all doing?
Speaker 12 (12:11):
Man?
Speaker 10 (12:11):
The White Sox, the White Sox. Yeah, the White Sox.
Speaker 21 (12:15):
Really, you're gonna take a ails to the White Sox
like this and all that great pitching so frustrating.
Speaker 10 (12:22):
This team smells, team stinks, sinky. We're just as bad
as the White Sox. Yeah, man, I can't, I can't
get over there. What are we doing?
Speaker 21 (12:33):
It's a football season.
Speaker 10 (12:34):
Somebody did say last night, somebody did tweet at me
and say, at least they got us to the schedule release.
Speaker 19 (12:42):
Hey, guys, don't you find it very ironic that the
Reds are playing the White son on Pete Rose Night
the day after the nineteen nineteen Black Socks and Pete
Rose both are taken off of the Band for Life list.
You go, and I think something else that's you know,
the guy that actually banned the White Sox in nineteen
(13:03):
nineteen was kennesal Lands, who was born in Melville, Ohio.
Speaker 10 (13:08):
How about that which is out by Miami of oh Kennisol,
old Kennisol. Huh Lands? They speaking of old Kennisol. How
about Derrick Henry and the Baltimore Ravens. They have a greach,
They have reached an agreement today on a two year,
thirty million dollar extension that includes twenty five million fully
(13:28):
guaranteed over the next two seasons. It is the largest
deal in NFL history for a running back over the
age of thirty. Trey Hendrickson is pointing at the sign
right now.
Speaker 21 (13:41):
One more time for a dough dip from out Bengals.
Real talk, Trey, Come on, bro, A deal is a deal, man.
You sat the deal. Blame your agent. Just keep it real, man.
Speaker 10 (13:51):
You screwed up, y'all both screwed up.
Speaker 21 (13:53):
Man up. Don esl. I know they told you something,
but dude, you should know how I will with the
front office. You've been here for a few years. You
see how they operated. Why you signed a deal with
my brother. Don't back out of it now? And uh
far as the schedule, yo. I want to smoke. I
I want to a cup cake, bring a smoke. I
want feet and feel.
Speaker 10 (14:11):
To the fire.
Speaker 12 (14:12):
I've been a Cincinnati sports fan my entire life since
eighty nine year Pete was banned. Actually, so I've always
felt somewhat of an obligation to be on his side
in the Hall of Fame argument. So much so that
in my very first semester of college and speech class.
I made my persuasive speech on this very topic, with
my primary argument being the guy never once bet against
his team.
Speaker 10 (14:32):
Think about that for a second.
Speaker 12 (14:33):
He only made it more likely that his team would win.
That is not worthy of getting banned for life for
the hit kaing. The commissioner should be ashamed. He did
not fix anything. He waited too long.
Speaker 10 (14:43):
There's something I can tell you with absolute certainty. Pete
did not bet on the Reds to win every single night.
There's no way that that is one of the biggest
fabrications out there after Bengals win. What's the first thing
Trece Henderson has said? Without God, this would would not
be possible.
Speaker 16 (15:03):
Well, Trey, without God signing that contract wouldn't be possible.
Speaker 10 (15:07):
And greed is a deadly damn all right, lord nuts.
Even when I was a little kid, I couldn't stand
when people thought that way. You know, if so and
so wasn't Cope good, he would have scored on that
fly ball.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Yeah, well, if he made it the third the picture
probably would have made a different pitch.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
And you don't know, if you get a fly.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Ball drives me nuts. Anyway, Whatever Trey is seeking and
whenever the Bengals offer is the two sides should meet
in the middle. Let's get it done.
Speaker 10 (15:44):
You start walking your way, I'll start walking in mine.
We'll meet in the middle. Meet that old Georgia Pine.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Cray Andrickson deal that he should probably try to get
agreed to. It is a three year deal, the third
year being avoidable, and then he can play up to
that third year and prove him wrong and they keep
him for that third year or if he falls off.
The Bengals only paid in those two years.
Speaker 10 (16:12):
And I think Baseball got it right.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
They didn't just reinstate Pete Rose singlarly, but they reinstated
all those guys.
Speaker 10 (16:20):
Best way he could have done it. Okay, Hey Joe
from case here.
Speaker 24 (16:24):
He asked about Henderson Hendrickson being a distraction Does it
help or hurt the Bengals win? You know, obviously it hurts,
but him being a distractional guy it from his standpoint,
does it help him get a deal done?
Speaker 19 (16:35):
I think it's the opposite.
Speaker 24 (16:36):
I think the Bengals are way more likely to lock
in now and not you know, extend anything past what
they want to. I think he's hurting himself more than
he's hurting the team by acting that way.
Speaker 10 (16:50):
Man, there you go. All right, we've got a few more,
but we're out of time, so we got it.
Speaker 8 (16:55):
Okay, Yeah, Well when we get back, we'll we'll we'll,
I guess try to to piece together the latest injury
report from Uh.
Speaker 10 (17:06):
We know that TJ. Friedel is having an MRI. Yeah today,
that's true. MRI mr U, m R we mr us
oh us E there you go. You know that's a
Mickey Mouse thing. Oh, that's a Mickey Mouse thing, Mickey
Mouse Clubhouse, something like that. Uh.

two o'clock, so we'll have a lot to get to
with James.

Car right now with me. That's works up in Cleveland.
Speaker 20 (04:14):
I'm doing this on purpose.
Speaker 10 (04:15):
Anyhow, you guys have a great day.
Speaker 8 (04:17):
Thanks Johnny.
Speaker 10 (04:18):
Good to hear from you.
Speaker 20 (04:19):
Hey, Tony, the first five minutes at the top of
the show, you gave some really heartfelt things about Pete Rose,
and I appreciate that. My question is, did you hold
your hand over ADDIE's mouth like Andy Mack did with
Joe Sunderman when Xavier beat the number one you see Bearcats?
Speaker 8 (04:40):
No, I did not know.
Speaker 10 (04:41):
People forget we're in different rooms.
Speaker 21 (04:43):
I did not.
Speaker 10 (04:44):
We're like fifty feet away from each other. I just
turned my mic off and let Tony speak.
Speaker 16 (04:50):
Pylas Hank Hill here and Bob, I'm going tell you
what another maddening lost last night. And Boh, I'm happy
to hear the Pete Rose news. You know, I know
as a person he may have done some things to
get his hands dirty, and well, I don't believe that
any of us have perfectly clean hands. And was he
(05:10):
a great person, Well that's to be debated. Well, he
was a great ballplayer and he deserves to be in
the Hall.
Speaker 10 (05:16):
That's all I know.
Speaker 12 (05:18):
I did.
Speaker 10 (05:19):
I agree with that.
Speaker 20 (05:21):
Down along the Ohio River tonight at Great American Ballpark,
you will hear coom.
Speaker 9 (05:27):
Bye, my Pete.
Speaker 10 (05:31):
Coom bye.
Speaker 20 (05:35):
You know, Pete, I don't really care what you did
off the field, that's your own business. But on the field,
you were one of the world's greatest motivated, driven athletes ever.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
We love you. I'm going to give a slightly different
take on Pete Rose. First of all, though I want
to say God rest his soul and I'm so happy
for his family. Pete Rolls does not belong in the
Hall of Fame. And it's not because of the gambling.
The gambling I can passed, even though I think it
was more nefarious than people let on. When you don't
bet on your team to win, to meet that's an
indication to bookies you think they're gonna lose. For me,
(06:08):
as a father of young girls, that's the part of
Pete Rose the story that I cannot get past, and
that's why I still believe you should not be in
the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
Okay, what this is your say?
Speaker 16 (06:18):
Pete Rose a perfect man? No, certainly not. But I'm
not either. Heck, one time I mowed my lawn against
the grain. Lord forgive me. But anybody of those nine
percent on that pole need to look themselves right in
the mirror and then put them stones down, because being
in the Hall ain't about being a great person. It's
(06:41):
about being a great ballplayer.
Speaker 10 (06:42):
That's fair. That's fair. What'd you do on the field?
By the way, quick update revive Fitnessystems dot com. Pole question,
what's your reaction to Pete being reinstated by Major League Baseball?
We have almost a dead heat between about damn time
and too late. It's meaningless. Twenty six percent are in different.
Eight point seven percent say don't care, Pete sucks.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
Happy bye God, Peter Edward Rose Day. Everybody glad they're
honoring the hit Kings of Night. So the Lifetime Band
has been lifted. Real tough decision there, Rob Manford, the
band's dead.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
He's the word Lifetime Band being over.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
And anyways, it almost feels like one last jab at
Pete after he's dead and gone. Maybe that's just my opinion.
And if the Hall of Fame was the come calling
after this, I'm Pete's family. I tell him to go
kiss my Cleveland Browns man.
Speaker 10 (07:34):
And why would I say kiss my Cleveland Browns?
Speaker 5 (07:37):
Well, I say it because of this. The band could
have been lifted years ago with the row intact that
he can never manage again baseball again, but be eligible
as a player. Come on, there's people on Hall of
Fames that's Donet far worse than what Pete did.
Speaker 10 (07:50):
Do I condone it absolutely, don All right, dad? Hear that?
Speaker 14 (07:58):
Oh oh no, II God is happy hump Day, Austin.
Everything you said about the Cincinnati Reds ball club is
so spot on. I mean, I have never heard better
words spoken about a ball club. And yes, the biggest
disappointment to me is that I thought Terry Francona would
have a bigger effect on the culture. What I saw
(08:18):
last night really put the nail in the coffin for me.
Spencer Stare getting to second, barely shaking his little dicey hand.
Speaker 12 (08:26):
So yeah, I'm.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
What's up, guys, Big Cahune in Kentucky. Got a little
schedule prediction for you.
Speaker 10 (08:35):
What I think is gonna be just a.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Vision weekend of September five through seven, clean sweep of
the Mets, right back in the playoff contention. Monday Night
Football the eighth, the Lions come to the nasty natty
Cincinnati hosting the Lions week one Monday Night Cool.
Speaker 8 (08:57):
That would be fun.
Speaker 21 (08:58):
Here's a little talk back for you, all right, Austin,
shut up about Pete Rose.
Speaker 8 (09:05):
Never solid play or just shut up?
Speaker 18 (09:08):
Man.
Speaker 10 (09:11):
I expected that today. I mean, god, it's been forty
years since the dude played. A lot of people haven't
seen him play. Hey guys, good show again.
Speaker 15 (09:19):
My condiction for this today that if the Reds keep
this up, keep losing, tarm Francona is going to step down,
saying that his illness came back and they're going to
step down to keep him face. He's too good of
a manager to do this. I only I get it.
It's only forty games, but if this continues, I can
see them. I don't want to say excuse, but I
(09:39):
want to say that they'll say, like his illness came
back and he because like what he did with Cleveland,
he didn't feel like he can.
Speaker 10 (09:48):
Take a page out of the old Urban Meyer playbooks.
What we're saying.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Your caller, Mark the Florist. Yeah, what makes him think
Ellie still hits the home run in the ninth inning
if Benson scores? I mean, why do people think this?
Does he not understand how the multiverse works. If Benson scores,
(10:16):
it sets forth a whole series of events. You don't
know if Ally still hits.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
The home that's true. That is how baseball works.
Speaker 22 (10:25):
Hey, Austin and Tony, It's Brandon Indianapolis. I just wanted
to say, as far as the Reds are concerned, I'm
really starting to lose interest. The reason I'm starting to
lose interest it just seems like the same old thing.
I'm really glad they're honoring Pete Rose, but I'm finding
other things to do. Sach has watched the NBA playoffs.
I'm really proud of our pacers around here. But anyways,
(10:46):
that's just my thought. Have a great day, OK, thank you.
I'm glad they're honoring Pete Rose.
Speaker 10 (10:58):
This is DJ. Hey, guys, great job summarizing the Red situation.
You know, Austin, I think you hit the nail on
the head. I mean, they're just boring to watch, especially
at the plate.
Speaker 23 (11:09):
And while I was a big proponent of bringing Francona in,
it's the same team, it's the same mistakes, the same
let's get him tomorrow and Francona and like the rest
of the organization is just way too comfortable with losing.
Speaker 10 (11:22):
And you know that's the thing that's so frustrated.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Okay, Yeah, Tony, Austin, Alex and Silver Dud and buddy
of mine who's a big green Bay fan, and we've
already planned on going to Green Bay for the game,
just waiting to see when it will be.
Speaker 18 (11:40):
Now, I'm in the camp of I want it to
be cold. I want to go to Green Bay when
it's freezing. I want to experience Lambeau like that, because
they went last year on the Hottes Day for.
Speaker 7 (11:52):
The Colts game and he said it wasn't as fun.
Speaker 18 (11:54):
What does your guys takes on that.
Speaker 10 (11:57):
I would prefer it to be I'd love it to
be zero to I wanted to be mid October. I
think it would be absolutely perfect.
Speaker 21 (12:04):
As always ripping in Natty out here's Sonny hot Son?
What up? Tony?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
What Yoh?
Speaker 10 (12:10):
My Reds. What are y'all doing?
Speaker 12 (12:11):
Man?
Speaker 10 (12:11):
The White Sox, the White Sox. Yeah, the White Sox.
Speaker 21 (12:15):
Really, you're gonna take a ails to the White Sox
like this and all that great pitching so frustrating.
Speaker 10 (12:22):
This team smells, team stinks, sinky. We're just as bad
as the White Sox. Yeah, man, I can't, I can't
get over there. What are we doing?
Speaker 21 (12:33):
It's a football season.
Speaker 10 (12:34):
Somebody did say last night, somebody did tweet at me
and say, at least they got us to the schedule release.
Speaker 19 (12:42):
Hey, guys, don't you find it very ironic that the
Reds are playing the White son on Pete Rose Night
the day after the nineteen nineteen Black Socks and Pete
Rose both are taken off of the Band for Life list.
You go, and I think something else that's you know,
the guy that actually banned the White Sox in nineteen
(13:03):
nineteen was kennesal Lands, who was born in Melville, Ohio.
Speaker 10 (13:08):
How about that which is out by Miami of oh Kennisol,
old Kennisol. Huh Lands? They speaking of old Kennisol. How
about Derrick Henry and the Baltimore Ravens. They have a greach,
They have reached an agreement today on a two year,
thirty million dollar extension that includes twenty five million fully
(13:28):
guaranteed over the next two seasons. It is the largest
deal in NFL history for a running back over the
age of thirty. Trey Hendrickson is pointing at the sign
right now.
Speaker 21 (13:41):
One more time for a dough dip from out Bengals.
Real talk, Trey, Come on, bro, A deal is a deal, man.
You sat the deal. Blame your agent. Just keep it real, man.
Speaker 10 (13:51):
You screwed up, y'all both screwed up.
Speaker 21 (13:53):
Man up. Don esl. I know they told you something,
but dude, you should know how I will with the
front office. You've been here for a few years. You
see how they operated. Why you signed a deal with
my brother. Don't back out of it now? And uh
far as the schedule, yo. I want to smoke. I
I want to a cup cake, bring a smoke. I
want feet and feel.
Speaker 10 (14:11):
To the fire.
Speaker 12 (14:12):
I've been a Cincinnati sports fan my entire life since
eighty nine year Pete was banned. Actually, so I've always
felt somewhat of an obligation to be on his side
in the Hall of Fame argument. So much so that
in my very first semester of college and speech class.
I made my persuasive speech on this very topic, with
my primary argument being the guy never once bet against
his team.
Speaker 10 (14:32):
Think about that for a second.
Speaker 12 (14:33):
He only made it more likely that his team would win.
That is not worthy of getting banned for life for
the hit kaing. The commissioner should be ashamed. He did
not fix anything. He waited too long.
Speaker 10 (14:43):
There's something I can tell you with absolute certainty. Pete
did not bet on the Reds to win every single night.
There's no way that that is one of the biggest
fabrications out there after Bengals win. What's the first thing
Trece Henderson has said? Without God, this would would not
be possible.
Speaker 16 (15:03):
Well, Trey, without God signing that contract wouldn't be possible.
Speaker 10 (15:07):
And greed is a deadly damn all right, lord nuts.
Even when I was a little kid, I couldn't stand
when people thought that way. You know, if so and
so wasn't Cope good, he would have scored on that
fly ball.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Yeah, well, if he made it the third the picture
probably would have made a different pitch.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
And you don't know, if you get a fly.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Ball drives me nuts. Anyway, Whatever Trey is seeking and
whenever the Bengals offer is the two sides should meet
in the middle. Let's get it done.
Speaker 10 (15:44):
You start walking your way, I'll start walking in mine.
We'll meet in the middle. Meet that old Georgia Pine.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Cray Andrickson deal that he should probably try to get
agreed to. It is a three year deal, the third
year being avoidable, and then he can play up to
that third year and prove him wrong and they keep
him for that third year or if he falls off.
The Bengals only paid in those two years.
Speaker 10 (16:12):
And I think Baseball got it right.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
They didn't just reinstate Pete Rose singlarly, but they reinstated
all those guys.
Speaker 10 (16:20):
Best way he could have done it. Okay, Hey Joe
from case here.
Speaker 24 (16:24):
He asked about Henderson Hendrickson being a distraction Does it
help or hurt the Bengals win? You know, obviously it hurts,
but him being a distractional guy it from his standpoint,
does it help him get a deal done?
Speaker 19 (16:35):
I think it's the opposite.
Speaker 24 (16:36):
I think the Bengals are way more likely to lock
in now and not you know, extend anything past what
they want to. I think he's hurting himself more than
he's hurting the team by acting that way.
Speaker 10 (16:50):
Man, there you go. All right, we've got a few more,
but we're out of time, so we got it.
Speaker 8 (16:55):
Okay, Yeah, Well when we get back, we'll we'll we'll,
I guess try to to piece together the latest injury
report from Uh.

We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today.
