That is going to be a big show in the
eye e Jonas. We have David Vesse coming up next. Yeah,
I could see that you've been a little you know,
within yourself.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Oh yeah, it's just it's been really troublesome.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I reached out to Dave yesterday.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Did you hear back.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yeah, it's just, you know, I'm not sure what to
really take of it, because why what happened. I mean,
he just said, hey, listen, it's all good, you know,
because I wanted to make sure he understood it was contention.
I wasn't trying to piss him off. I didn't realize
the ongoing beef he had with Fred Rogan, so I
didn't mean to gas him up.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Well, I don't even know if Fred would say it
was a beef, but Dave, certainly I believe, feels it.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, And so I didn't want to gass him up anymore.
And so I tried to keep it cordial and keep
it kind. So I'm hoping that this goes smoothly. I'm
hoping it goes smoothly.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
We'll see. I mean, I'm a little worried for you myself.
That's next, though we do have some stuff to get through. First,
Let's go for the fun fact.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
It's fun in effect.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Yeah, we're three fun fact, I'm sorry, Ronnie. Kansas City
during Prohibition was known as a wide up in town,
a stark contrast to the rest of the country's enforcement
of the Eighteenth Amendment. While other cities struggled with illegal
alcohol and organized crime, Kansas City, under the leadership of
political boss Tom Pendergast, thrived as a haven for vice
(04:19):
and entertainment, earning the nickname the Paris of the Planes.
All right, oh, no booze. Yeah, that's how Harry Truman
came up.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So they were tin horn flats before tin horn flats exactly.
All right.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Hey, alcohol's illegal seed, not out here. Kansas City.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
We got a generator.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Everything's up to day in Kansas City. They're gone about
as far as they could go. So that's pretty great. Yeah,
Kansas City, Paris of the Planes, Thank you, Ronnie, classy.
All right, time for quick kets. Everybody quickets, come make
it quick, y'all. Oh yeah, Dodgers twenty games over five hundred,
(05:08):
beat the Rockies today three to one. Hits. Just keep
on coming, showy Otani with his twenty eighth home run
of the season. Let's hear it now the two two
and Otani swinks hits a drive deep right center field,
way back to the wall.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
He has done a home run show. Hey O, Tony
home run number twenty eight and the show rolls on
in Denver. Oh, a mammoth blast and the Dodgers lead
it three to one.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
You like that? You like that show goes on and
you like dadfordtt pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
You've really got to sell that, you know, you really
got to sell that. Otani went deep again, you know,
like it's happened so many times.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I don't be jealous.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I'm not jealous, Like you know, it's we've got to
celebrate these moments. I just feel like, with all the
the reads that Tim Kates does, I feel like Otani's
a Tim Kates guy. To be honest with you, well.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
He's really a Steven Nelson guy. Have you heard the
way Steven Nelson says his name? Clayton Kershaw got the win.
He's now four and oh Kershaw went six, allowed one
run on two hits. We'll strake it out five. He's
now got two thousand, nine hundred and ninety seven strikeouts.
Here he is a post game today talking about the milestone.
(06:28):
How did you feel out there today?
Speaker 7 (06:30):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (06:30):
It felt good?
Speaker 8 (06:31):
Actually, yeah, felt better than the last couple, so that
was good. Yeah, I mean, I think the play of
the day was Miggy after that four pitch walk, you know,
totally hits the ball hard.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Down the line.
Speaker 8 (06:41):
That could have been you know, one run in, run
around second, nobody out. So to turn that double play
there was kind of a game changer and able to
get some quick outs and yeah, but really Meggie's play
was the biggest play the day by far.
Speaker 9 (06:55):
He only threw sixty nine pitches and six innings. Is
that a big key?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
Do you now?
Speaker 9 (07:00):
Just gain those quick outs and gaining that defense behind you?
Speaker 8 (07:04):
I mean, you always want to be efficient no matter what. Yeah,
I mean, I think, you know, my days of throwing
one hundred and fifteen pitches is probably over. But uh,
you know, I think getting through sick is probably the
biggest thing at course field. And you know, Doc's doing
a good job of protecting me, which I appreciate too.
So I want to just be able to go out
(07:24):
back out there every fifth, sixth day. So whatever whatever
that means for me is is good for now.
Speaker 9 (07:29):
So you're now just three strikeouts away from three thousand.
You have a chance to do it at home, how
special would that be for you?
Speaker 5 (07:37):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, it would be. It would be very special.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
It would be were you kind of how mindful.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Of you were that just the total today while you're pitching?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yeah, I mean, I know I had eight to go.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
Freddy's Freddie's really good to remind me every day, so
and you know eight in Colorado is never going to
be easy to do. So yeah, but you know, pitched well,
got through six and a chance to maybe strikeout three
at home would be would be really cool starts?
Speaker 5 (08:03):
How did these belts overall about how we kind of
looked how your stuff's kind of played at.
Speaker 8 (08:07):
This point, kind of neutral, you know, I think there's
good days and bad days, good pitches and bad pitches,
So not as consistent, not as perfect as I would want,
but the results, you know, having been okay, and at
the end of the day, we're winning games that I've
been on the mound. So I'm thankful for that and
just product and being on a great team.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Next start for Kershaw is next week at home versus
the White Sox. I have a feeling that the Petros
and Money Show might have to stick their nose in
that affair.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Oh you think so?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Yeah, though, I think I'm both boycotting the Sweet.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Lives on location. What's wrong the suite?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
They invited too many people last time, and I was
worried that my family couldn't get in, and I basically
had a nervous breakdown.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
And so where'd you sit?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
I sat outside for like two innings to calm down.
At least it wasn't my birthday. Oh wait it what?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, there is a lot of people that go in there. Yeah,
I've been to that, which too much for me. I've
been to that.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
I was told that it would that like, hey, don't worry,
you should come. It's gonna be perfect, no one will
be in there. And then it wasn't that way, and
my family wasn't in there yet. There are kids and everything,
and I.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Just yeah, my kid was running around there at about
two years old, and.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I became a little upset and I left the room.
It's chaos. I'm still very upset about it's chaos. Still
not happy about it. But I'll do the show and
then I'll leave. But I'm never accepting tickets to the
suite ever. Again. Don't do me any favors ever again.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, put that in your gift pipe and smoke it wee.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yeah, the Angels at forty and forty they are off today.
I did talk to the concierge of the sports lodge,
Trent Rush. Yeah, on my way up to Well. You know,
it's that time of year, you know, all the play
by play guys start sniffing around. I got a call
from Guy Haberman yesterday, Tim Brando the week before, all
(09:53):
the play by plague. Have you heard anything about the
Cup coming season? You know you're working with Hey heard
any rumors? Bope?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Is now the time to address that?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Well? I mean I'm going in a couple of weeks
till Vegas for the Mountain West Media Day, and I
was invited to the College Football Seminar. So I'm assuming
I'm working for Fox again in the fall. Now, That's
all I could say.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Now, are you gonna let Timmy Chang intimidate you like
you did last last.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Year with the two tall boys? Stared the crap out
of me? You're right? How did you know? Do you
want to know what my conversation last year with has
the greatest conversation ever? Are you getting to support you need?
Speaker 1 (10:36):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
I am not back to you in the studio at
least now the whole promotions department hates me for kicking
about to speak. The angels are off today, but there, hey,
the sports lodge is booked. People are screaming for towels there.
The concierge of the sports lodge is on the phone constantly.
(10:59):
Trent Rush two folds to his head. The Tampa Bay
shortstop Wander Franco was found guilty of sexual abuse of
a minor and the Dominican Republic for an illegal sexual
relationship with the fourteen year old girl when he was
twenty one. He received a two year prison sentence, but
that sentence will be suspended by the judge if he
fails to be conditioned set by the judge, the main
(11:20):
one being he does not approach any miners with sexual
intention Hey next time, Hey, you listen next time. If
I even see you approaching a minor with sexual intentions, wander,
you're gonna wander way back into that Dominican prison.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Was right after he said a ten year deal, right,
I think he said a ten year, two hundred million
dollars deal.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
He'll he'll have to serve the sentence if he ever
approaches a woman that's a miner. Ever again, he won't
be able to get a visa to come to the USA,
so his days of playing major league baseball are done.
But he could be fistfighting Yasiel Puig in some weird league.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Oh yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Any moment, it's gonna be him versus Bower.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
In Guadalajara.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Second round of the draft. What do we got? Kate
got mom mout.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
I know you guys are out on this, but I
just need to update you real quick. What's happening. The
Lakers picked again, moving up from fifty five. They moved
all the way up to number thirty six in a
trade with Minnesota via Brooklyn, and they picked a young
man out of Arkansas, Adu Thero who played two years
at Kentucky and then went to Arkansas following John Calipari.
(12:29):
As we mentioned right now the draft is that pick
number forty three, Utah is on the clock. There are
so many trades happening, picks being swapped, it is confusing.
Chaslanier at a Tennessee got picked. That was a big
name during the NCAA tournament. Kay Peeve from Georgetown went.
The big guard from Georgetown went number forty. A lot
of names you've heard a lot of European players and
(12:50):
a lot of trades happening, guys. A lot of confusion
if you ask me. In the second round of the
NBA draft, a lot of trade confusion.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Cooper Flags and number one pick Dallas Mavericks GM Nico
Harrison is hoping and assuming that some of the public
backlash directed toward him after Luka Doncics trade will subside.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Now, okay, I mean Lucas getting in shape, so you
might end up to deal with with Luca all of
a sudden, looking slim and trim.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Yeah, yeah, slim Luca Yeah and old Lebron Lakers guard
Austin Reeves has decided to hold out for a bigger paycheck.
He reportedly declined a max contract extension with the Lakers
earlier this week. That would have been a four year
deal worth eighty nine point two million. The contract was
the largest offer of the Lakers could give Reeves this
offseason in terms of years and dollars. His decision is
(13:42):
not a reflection of relationship with the organization. Instead, Reeves
is expected to play out the third season of his
four year, fifty four million dollar contract he's signed in
twenty twenty three. Decline his player option for twenty six
and twenty seven and become an unrestricted, skinny shouldered white
free agent next summer, where a bigger payday awaits.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I mean, listen, LeVar Arrington and I talked about this
this morning. It feels like white guys are taking over basketball.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah, it's a big day. I even saw Clay Travis,
who's a big proponent for the white man, Yes he is.
I even saw Clay Travis tweet out, Hey, this is
a big year for the whites. Oh yeah, Oh you
get Cooper de Jean. We got Cooper Flatt take it over. Yeah,
we got We were going it's going on for the whites.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
It's kind of the point that we're now like, yeah, fine,
you could have Babe Ruth we fought against over years,
you could have him.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Second half of Indianapolis, the fever's taking on the La Sparks. No,
Clayton Clark, she's not playing because of a groin injury,
so no one's gonna watch. No. It's unfortunately, Uh, former
Ravens kicker Justin Tucker you mean Tuger, Yeah, Dick Puller,
that's his name, has been suspended for the first ten
(14:49):
weeks of the twenty twenty five regular season after the
NFL found that he violated the Personal Conduct Policy. No
appeal was negotiated. With the settlement justin Tucker gets one
game less than Deshaun Watson, who got an eleven game
suspension in twenty twenty two for similar massage antics.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yeah, Bob Kraft gets suspended too, or no, well yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Come on, I mean, wait, it's guys an owner. Okay,
what are you gonna do? Guy owns the league? Wonder
what I'm saying is you think they could just find
one person with the real good g I Joe kung
fu grip, and you know, just stick with that person, Yeah,
and not try to seduce like random messuses around town.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
I mean, if it wasn't for a pitch count, you know,
Dave Roberts would have the same guy in there who's
hot every time. Like, but you've got a pitch count,
you've got the arms get tired. I don't know if
there's that much fatigua.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
I can't He's through sixty four.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I was like, listen, I've seen her. Listen, I've seen
her two days in a row. She's exhausted. It's the
middle of summer.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
She's my starting closer. But she's already made four appearances
this week.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I mean she's found the zone every time.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Touched up in the night. They're exhausted. I always allude to.
People are like, well, how hard can it be? I
was like, well, you know, you see all those chicks
at the end of the Risky Business night. They were exhausted.
You know, the hookers were like smoking cigarettes looking all tired. Oh,
the girls were exhausted. They're counting the money to morning's
(16:17):
sitting there with top cruise.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I just love how Deshaun Watson and Justin Tucker are like, no, no,
we deny, we deny that this happened. Which one? You
know what I mean? Like, which one? The first two
it's like bigger and more.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Oh no, I pulled way away early, pulled out way
early on that one. There's nothing to there's no there's
no truth for those educations whatsoever. Why why did you
talk to her? All right? Everybody, David Massey, we'll talk
to us from the tarmac or the boss or something.
Traveling with the Dodgers next.
Speaker 1 (16:56):

Tomorrow Dodgers at Royals. David Vassay brilliant job on Spectrum

In Kansas City strutting with some barbecue like Lewis Armstrong
(17:34):

is actually from Red Bank, New Jersey like Jay and
Silent Bob, but made his bones in Kansas City unless
it was Saint Louis either way. David Vassa joining us
now the home of the Dodgers with an inside look
at the Dodgers. This is the vass Report with David
(17:56):
van give it another try with some good Jonas Knox diplomy.
David vase after some great work on TV, and he'll
be doing it all weekend, long hour Dodger Reporter on
AM fi seventy LA Sports on Twitter at the Reel
Underscore dv MLB Network two, brought to you by Service
Titan dot Com. Hello Dave, how are you?
Speaker 7 (18:17):
I'm doing great, guys. Good day for the Dodgers and
Clayton Kershaw just three away from three thousand as he is.
His next start, he should get it against the White
Sox at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Thanks for joining us, Dave. We know you're in transit
with the team to Kansas City and it's been you
know that thin air does take a toll on you,
but you sound good. Why'd they take him out so early, Dave?
It felt like they want to wait till he's at
home to do it. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
David Roberts even said that before the game he would
be tempted if he got close to take him out
so he could achieve that milestone in front of the
home fans. But look, it was a really hot day
here at Corsfield, being right next to the dugouts. I
know the the thermometers said ninety degrees, but on the
field it was at least ninety five degrees. And it's
(19:05):
not just about the pitch counts, even though he only
threw sixty nine pitches to the up and downs and
just what they're reading as far as with their eyes.
And also they got technology as well that tells them
whether or not the stuff is trending down. So all
of that contributed to taking him out after six innings today.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Dave, is this about, Well, I'm freaking out about this day.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
I'm worried about that. And you know, I've tried to
tell Jonas. You know, it's not easy on the road.
You know, I'm sorry. Just before we start, Just go ahead,
I'm sorry. Three, two, Just go Dave. Are you surprised?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Are the Dodger surprised with where Kershaw's at at this
point following his journey back, his recovery and just where
he's at this many starts.
Speaker 7 (19:47):
In I mean, to be doing what he's doing. It's
one thing to be out there, but to be dominating
the way he is, especially in these last four starts.
I mean, he's not just going out there to go
out there a ceremonial way and to chase a personal milestone.
He's going out there to win. And that's the reason
why he's able to be four and oh with an
(20:07):
Elra hovering just around three. I mean a lot of
guys that have harder velocity in baseball don't even do
what he's doing right now in his last four starts,
and you know that's the that's the thing that everybody's
marveling at that he's doing it this way. It's not
with ninety five or ninety six, eighty nine, eighty eight,
(20:28):
and he's still being able to get hitters out and
you know, making quick work of them like he did today. Hie,
David question, No, that's.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
A clown question. David Vass is our guest. That's a
clown question.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Bro.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
We're happy to have him on. He's joining us from
in Transit to Kansas City with the Los Angeles Dodgers
who swept the Colorado Rockies. They got through the tough
part of I go now, okay, No, I'm just kidding
what he got. Why would you do that to me?
I don't deserve that after promoting you and your stupid
dead fish handshake? Have they lined up? Have they lined
(21:09):
up for the handshake?
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Came up to me in the clubhouse out of nowhere
and wanted the dead fish handshake even though he didn't play.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Have they lined up? I mean Conforno's hot now, I
mean two straight games he's that's two best straight games
he's had. And you can't say it's not because of
the dead fish handshake. At what point are they gonna
line up for the dead fish handshake in Kansas City? Dave?
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Yeah, I feel like Freddie Freeman needs to dip in
with the dead fish handshake. Even really drove in to
go ahead run today, he wasn't happy with his at bat,
So I feel like Freddy needs to get out of
that Freddy funk with some dead fish handshakes. I don't
know if the magic works on future Hall of Famers,
but it certainly has worked on JD. Martinez and Michael CONFORDO.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Well, congratulations, David. Is heartwarming to see that it has
worked out.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I mean, look, if you got to stick with what works,
you got to stick with what the trend is. If
the you know, the handshake works and you can get
these guys off the sneid, make it happen. Did Max
Munsey partake in this because it seems like his power
numbers have gone up in recent weeks.
Speaker 7 (22:06):
No, No, it wasn't me. It was doctor Lou that
helped out Max Munsey with identifying that he has a
stigma in one of those eyes and gave him eyeglasses.
So he and Keik, Hernandez have gone out to see
Doctor Lou and he has the magic for the eyes.
I don't have that, Dave.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Overall, how good is Kansas City? What kind of road
trip is this for the Dodgers? You know? Not a
place where used to seeing the Dodgers play. Not a
matchup that we really embrace in the world of old
timey baseball, right.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
I always remind Mark Goubizaw that the eighty five Dodgers
would have beat his eighty five Royals in the World
Series that year. If not for Tom Needhm viewer and
Jack Clark, the Dodgers would have won the World Series
before nineteen eighty eight. But the Royals are struggling right now.
They got shut out again today, So the Dodgers took
care of business against the Rockies, the worst team in
(22:59):
base ball, and right now the Royals offense is not
very good and not much better than the Rockies. So
I would expect at least two out of three, if
not a sweep. And on Saturday Show, Hey Otani is
going to toe the rubber for the third time in
the Dodger uniform.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
That's three straight O'tani outings and three straight David vase,
spectrum sports and at LA appearances? Am I not right
on that?
Speaker 7 (23:25):
You are one hundred percent correct. You're keeping score and
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Now, how long is he expected to be out there for?
Are we going to keep it at a limit until
after the All Star break or what's what's Dave Roberts
thought on that?
Speaker 7 (23:36):
Well, from what I've gathered in what Otani and the
Dodgers have said, it's a gradual build up, right, So
the first two starts were an inning a piece. They
were never going to allow him to go further than that,
So you would imagine that this might be the next
step on the ladder to maybe two innings. I wouldn't
feel like that's unreasonable to expect because basically, in the
(23:58):
way doctor Neil Elatrojh has explain it to me, he's
finishing the rehab. At the major league level, we've never
seen a two way player, and we've never seen a
pitcher finishes rehabbing games. Because it's so unique. He's not
going to leave the team to throw rehab games in
the minor league. So I would say that two innings
(24:18):
is realistic to expect.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
The great David Massey doing the Lord's work on the
road with the Los Angeles Dodgers and bringing the thirsty
public the information, the satiating information that they need. Dave,
I wasn't but three weeks ago that we had fear
in our hearts about New York, the Yankees, the Mats,
and then the Padres twice, and then and then all
(24:44):
the strife that comes with that, The Giants, the Dodgers
have gotten through this pretty beautifully, have they not.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
Yeah, they finished that twenty nine game stretch with the
four game series against the Padres, and during that twenty
nine game stretch, they increased their lead in the nlst
and they went seventeen to twelve, a lot better than
what all of us were expecting considering all the pitching injuries.
So definitely seventeen and twelve during that twenty nine game
(25:10):
stretch Gauntlet was a big win. And now they've got
they just swept the Rockies, they got a struggling Royals team,
and they got a not much better White Sox team
when they return home. So right now they're past the
tough stretch of the first half, so they should be
able to pad the wins even more here.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Dave, how do you go about planning maybe a stopper
two at the stopper two at a new place that you,
guys don't travel to a lot. Have you already started
to scout out some of the local establishments. Have you
already started to look at where you're going to go
get a cold one? Maybe it's been my elbow a
little bit. It's not a clown question, please.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
No, no. Actually, the cameraman that is with us on
the road here, he is home base is in Kansas City.
So he has a good barbecue spot with some live music,
and we're gonna try that on Saturday after the day game.
So you would appreciate this Petro, some zetacoe music. Oh,
at this barbecue place.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Dave had sex with an alligator and came home. I'm
a better man. Check him out on Spectrum Sports at
LA all weekend long our reporter of course on AM
II seventy LA Sports. You'll hear him here as well.
Thank you, Dave, and have a safe trip. We'll talk
to you tomorrow. Maybe all right, guys, thanks here he
goes Davids Hey, and we will return out to you
by service titan. I think you did okay, you know,
(26:31):
I you know, he can say what he wants to say,
but he couldn't. He couldn't step your question.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
You want to know why because I didn't fill him
in on the fact that I'm filling in on Rogan
and Rodney tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Why'd you do it?
Speaker 7 (26:43):
Well?
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Because I told you not to like mixing the brand.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I'm a whore. I can't say no.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
You're just a girl that can't say no. You really
are well. I'm really really reconsidering it. I don't even
want to do the Dead and Alive next. You're doing
Rogan and Rodney tomorrow. Why don't you just lay down
with everybody? You like having someone's hand all over your ass.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I always smell like different cologne when you come in, Donna,
you're the worst.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
We'll be back.

At the Jonas Knocks at the Jonas Knox.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
The Jonas Knox, which means so cool.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
You could do the if you're a douche Ohio State fan,
but if you're just a standard every.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Day because I'm at the old piece.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
A heart heart at lunch pail guy, it's the copy
that you know, Yeah, it is the.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
All right, well tell us how you feel, but trust us,
we enjoy. Jonas Knox show starts at two, and don't
forget to podcast everything on the iHeartRadio app for your smartphone. Okay,
I don't do this often because uh, well when Matt's here,
(30:02):
I just don't do it. But uh we'll do an
athletic I mean it is an athletic based guy. But
a very interesting story because it is such an old story,
the story of Jay Burwanger. Does that name ring a bell?
Speaker 2 (30:19):
It rings a bell, But you're gonna have to give
me a little bit more.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
It's okay, it's understandable. It's an old timy name from
an old time. Jay Burwanger, also known as John Jacob
Burwanger is very famous old football player born in nineteen fourteen,
(30:43):
so that would make him one hundred and thirty one
years old today from Dubuque, Iowa six one ninety five
Dubuke High School rams than the Chicago Maroons. And then
don't you cheat and look at up the University of
Chicago which got rid of football and fraternities shortly after,
(31:07):
which is why you never hear about University of Chicago athletics.
But in that time, the University of Chicago, which is
a very reputable university, as you know as a Chicago
in yourself, they got rid of football. But when he
was there, they were in the Big Ten and he
was called a one man football team. He was also
called the Flying Dutchman even though he was of German descent.
(31:31):
His nose had been broken twice and he wore a faceguard.
We're talking the nineteen thirties, and he was called the
man in the Iron mask. He was the MVP of
the Big Ten. He was an All American. The most
famous football player ever from the University of Michigan is
(31:53):
not who you think it is, Tom Brady or Desmond Howard,
Charles Woodson. It's Gerald Ford, former US president, And in
a game against Jay Berwanger, Gerald Ford got his left
eye cut and he bore the scar for the rest
of his life. Future president.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
It looks like Berwinger. Uh never got that nose fixed.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
No, No. Nineteen thirty five, he was awarded the first
ever Downtown Athletic Club Trophy, which was later renamed the
Heisman Trophy one year later after the director of the
Downtown Athletic Club, John Heisman. How do you get the Heisman?
Way back in thirty five, what wins you the Heisman Trophy?
Jonas five hundred and seventy seven yards rushing, four hundred
(32:39):
and five passing, three hundred and fifty nine in kick return,
and he kicked five extra points, had scored six touchdown.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Yeah, we got your Travis Hunter right here.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Yeah, exactly right. And he was a decathlet and he
competed at the Olympics in the decathlon. He played for
the Now back then, play pro football wasn't like, as
Lebron would say, the a all be all of life.
He played for the Eagles, and of course the Bears,
(33:12):
who basically created modern pro football with the greatness of
Red Grange. The Bears tried to get his rights and
he could not come to terms with the very Chinsea
Greek George Holli. Yeah, so he turned to rugby and
played some rugby in Chicago for a long time, became
a sports writer for a little time, was a referee
(33:35):
for a short time. And you know how people always
make the joke like, what'd you do with the trophy? Oh,
it's a doorstop. That's actually from the Jay Burnwanger story.
The original Heisman trophy was used as a doorstop at
his aunt Gussie's house for many many years. Now it's
(34:00):
in the trophy case at the Dubuque High School, his
alma mater in Iowa. He died at eighty eight in
two thousand and two. Jay Berwanger, the very first Heisman
winner of all time.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
How about that lived to eighty eight after all that
damage to the body.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Well, I just caught a little college actually, you know,
I mean, hey, back then, guys used to get through
the meat grinder in World War One, World War two?
Speaker 2 (34:22):
What do you think rugby was like back there?
Speaker 1 (34:24):
You know?
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Now it's like, oh, my neck hurts from looking at
my cell phone too much.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
I mean, he must have gotten lit up multiple times.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
Who banger. Yeah, yeah, there's no doubt Bernwanger took some hits,
but no more than Red Grange. Now, okay, that's pretty
big for back. That's pretty big for football in the thirties.
That's huge.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
That's a kicker now now, yeah, that says flanker. I mean, listen,
it's a doorstop. It's a heisman used as a door stop.
And there was that speculation based on an AI video
that Djokic used his MVP trophy and let his horses
(35:05):
play round with it.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Yeah, but that's a lie. Yeah, now this is real.
Now do you have the Alive Guy Birthday of the Day?
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Oh, I've got the A Live Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
He did pretty good yesterday with George Michael.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I have to say, yeah, well, there was a lot
going on. It wasn't as good as the Dead Guy
Paul Bear from back in the day. Yeah that was
but Petros. The A Live Guy Birthday of the Day
on this June the twenty sixth, belongs to Christopher Joseph
(35:38):
Isaac Oh born on this day in nineteen fifty six
in Stockton, California.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
Yeah, he's a proud Stockton.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
To Dorothy and Joseph a forkliff Driver, respectively, of Italian
and German ancestry. Chris Isaac attended amos Alonzo Stagg High
School in Stockton. He was the class president of nineteen
seventy four and the valedictorian Charming Guy. He attended local college,
(36:11):
San Joaquin Delta Community College before transferring to the University
of the Pacific. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in
English and Communication Arts in nineteen eighty one, and he
participated in a Japanese exchange program. After graduating, he put
together his first band, Silvertone, a rockabilly group, in nineteen
(36:34):
eighty five.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
He've got a little bit of an Elvis fixation.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Yeah. They signed a contract with Warner Brothers Records. They
released their first album to critical acclaim, including from John Fogerty.
His self titled follow up album for Isaac was released
in nineteen eighty seven and reached the Billboard two hundred.
The album saw Isaac hone his style to sophisticated R
and B. Yes, but it wasn't until nineteen eighty nine
(37:00):
Isaac's Heart Shaped World album that he released this classic
the most well known song Wicked Game. Mark Needham, an
engineer who worked with Isaac on Wicked Game, claim that
it took several years to put the track together. How
I'm not quite sure, Yeah, really not quite sure.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
There's a very unique song.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
It is. But there was a an Atlanta radio station.
Lee Chestnut, an Atlanta radio station music director who was
obsessed with David Lynch films, because this was featured in
a David Lynch film.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
Well, David Lynch has great taste and listened.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
He played the vocal version. It became the station's most
requested song. Chestnut spread the word to other stations and
the single became a national top ten hit in February
of ninety one. After that he released Isaac did some
other not so well known albums. He also did some
small acting role. This is most important lifelong bachelor and
(38:03):
regarding his bachelor static, Isaac stated quote, the longest relationship
I've been in was with my band. My personal relationships
have never lasted because my work was always number one.
It's not that I never thought about marriage and kids,
but I was either busy writing and recording music, acting
or on the road. The kids are like sailboats. They
(38:24):
look good on a sunny day and in the distance,
but require a lot of maintenance.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
Oh, there's no doubt Isaac.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
He's got a point. He's got a point.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Well, he had that show on showtime with the actual band,
like way back in the day, the Chris Isaac Show. Yeah,
really early, like HBO vibes or whatever.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
But other than this song, did he do anything? Oh
any other class?
Speaker 3 (38:45):
I go walking down there forever Blue graduation day. He's
got a lot of good muses.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
I mean he didn't scape any any litigation, though. In
two thousand and three he was sued by his lighting
director of seven years for quote discrimination, wrongful firing, and defamation,
among other churches.
Speaker 5 (39:05):
Oh whatever, Yeah, I mean, that's smatter off the back
of attacking Chris Isaac.
Speaker 2 (39:11):
Here's two hundred bucks, kiss my ass.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
San Francisco Days, another Chris Isaac classic.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
Thanks for making me look like Skinny Elvis in the
music video Pal. Here's here's a couple hundred bucks.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
He's great.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Take a walk.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
I saw him perform recently at the Beach Life Ranch,
and he puts on a great show, Like he really
still got it. Yeah, I mean he's reten. You would
love that show. Like, he does a great show. And
I'm not kidding, Chris Isaac's awesome and he dresses up.
He's got a great sense of humor. He's great. He
(39:43):
does and he does, uh, he does South of the Border,
the Sinatra cover, or at least I know it as
a Sinatra song.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
So when you see these lists come out of one
hit wonders.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
He's not on no, Rodnie, would you say that one?
Speaker 1 (39:59):
No?
Speaker 3 (39:59):
But that was definitely crossover here. This probably was his
biggest Oh yeah, yeah, sure, well because it.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Was not a one hit wonder Was there a supermodel
in the music video?
Speaker 3 (40:07):
Yeah, Linda Evangelista or one of them chicks.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah, he was a heart throwback.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
Oh he still has good looking man. I mean it
wasn't good. I'm not kidding. I'm not trying to wash.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
His ball and lifelong batcher. He probably laid the lumber.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Oh you don't think so. That's what his whole TV
show was about, was all the chicks that he that
he slayed. But his band was like, hey, what's up.
I'm not even kidding. He was in Firewalk with me.
The David Lynch movie.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Friends with Stevie Nicks too, It says, well, who is it?
Speaker 3 (40:41):
You know? For what it's worth, you don't lose the
middle part of your nose hanging out with nobody. What
when you lose the Senate? When you've blown so much
cocaine that you've lost the center divider in your nose,
which Tim Cats is flirting with currently? Uh, you probably
(41:05):
have a lot of real famous friends.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
Oh, Kates is a snowblower.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Oh, you didn't know that cocaine Kates.
Speaker 2 (41:10):
For a reason, No kidding, That's why he's always wired.

I could see that you've been a little you know,
within yourself.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Oh yeah, it's just it's been really troublesome.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I reached out to Dave yesterday.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Did you hear back.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yeah, it's just, you know, I'm not sure what to
really take of it, because why what happened. I mean,
he just said, hey, listen, it's all good, you know,
because I wanted to make sure he understood it was contention.
I wasn't trying to piss him off. I didn't realize
the ongoing beef he had with Fred Rogan, so I
didn't mean to gas him up.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Well, I don't even know if Fred would say it
was a beef, but Dave, certainly I believe, feels it.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, And so I didn't want to gass him up anymore.
And so I tried to keep it cordial and keep
it kind. So I'm hoping that this goes smoothly. I'm
hoping it goes smoothly.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
We'll see. I mean, I'm a little worried for you myself.
That's next, though we do have some stuff to get through. First,
Let's go for the fun fact.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
It's fun in effect.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Yeah, we're three fun fact, I'm sorry, Ronnie. Kansas City
during Prohibition was known as a wide up in town,
a stark contrast to the rest of the country's enforcement
of the Eighteenth Amendment. While other cities struggled with illegal
alcohol and organized crime, Kansas City, under the leadership of
political boss Tom Pendergast, thrived as a haven for vice
(04:19):
and entertainment, earning the nickname the Paris of the Planes.
All right, oh, no booze. Yeah, that's how Harry Truman
came up.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So they were tin horn flats before tin horn flats exactly.
All right.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Hey, alcohol's illegal seed, not out here. Kansas City.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
We got a generator.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Everything's up to day in Kansas City. They're gone about
as far as they could go. So that's pretty great. Yeah,
Kansas City, Paris of the Planes, Thank you, Ronnie, classy.
All right, time for quick kets. Everybody quickets, come make
it quick, y'all. Oh yeah, Dodgers twenty games over five hundred,
(05:08):
beat the Rockies today three to one. Hits. Just keep
on coming, showy Otani with his twenty eighth home run
of the season. Let's hear it now the two two
and Otani swinks hits a drive deep right center field,
way back to the wall.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
He has done a home run show. Hey O, Tony
home run number twenty eight and the show rolls on
in Denver. Oh, a mammoth blast and the Dodgers lead
it three to one.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
You like that? You like that show goes on and
you like dadfordtt pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
You've really got to sell that, you know, you really
got to sell that. Otani went deep again, you know,
like it's happened so many times.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I don't be jealous.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I'm not jealous, Like you know, it's we've got to
celebrate these moments. I just feel like, with all the
the reads that Tim Kates does, I feel like Otani's
a Tim Kates guy. To be honest with you, well.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
He's really a Steven Nelson guy. Have you heard the
way Steven Nelson says his name? Clayton Kershaw got the win.
He's now four and oh Kershaw went six, allowed one
run on two hits. We'll strake it out five. He's
now got two thousand, nine hundred and ninety seven strikeouts.
Here he is a post game today talking about the milestone.
(06:28):
How did you feel out there today?
Speaker 7 (06:30):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (06:30):
It felt good?
Speaker 8 (06:31):
Actually, yeah, felt better than the last couple, so that
was good. Yeah, I mean, I think the play of
the day was Miggy after that four pitch walk, you know,
totally hits the ball hard.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Down the line.
Speaker 8 (06:41):
That could have been you know, one run in, run
around second, nobody out. So to turn that double play
there was kind of a game changer and able to
get some quick outs and yeah, but really Meggie's play
was the biggest play the day by far.
Speaker 9 (06:55):
He only threw sixty nine pitches and six innings. Is
that a big key?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
Do you now?
Speaker 9 (07:00):
Just gain those quick outs and gaining that defense behind you?
Speaker 8 (07:04):
I mean, you always want to be efficient no matter what. Yeah,
I mean, I think, you know, my days of throwing
one hundred and fifteen pitches is probably over. But uh,
you know, I think getting through sick is probably the
biggest thing at course field. And you know, Doc's doing
a good job of protecting me, which I appreciate too.
So I want to just be able to go out
(07:24):
back out there every fifth, sixth day. So whatever whatever
that means for me is is good for now.
Speaker 9 (07:29):
So you're now just three strikeouts away from three thousand.
You have a chance to do it at home, how
special would that be for you?
Speaker 5 (07:37):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, it would be. It would be very special.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
It would be were you kind of how mindful.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Of you were that just the total today while you're pitching?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yeah, I mean, I know I had eight to go.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
Freddy's Freddie's really good to remind me every day, so
and you know eight in Colorado is never going to
be easy to do. So yeah, but you know, pitched well,
got through six and a chance to maybe strikeout three
at home would be would be really cool starts?
Speaker 5 (08:03):
How did these belts overall about how we kind of
looked how your stuff's kind of played at.
Speaker 8 (08:07):
This point, kind of neutral, you know, I think there's
good days and bad days, good pitches and bad pitches,
So not as consistent, not as perfect as I would want,
but the results, you know, having been okay, and at
the end of the day, we're winning games that I've
been on the mound. So I'm thankful for that and
just product and being on a great team.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Next start for Kershaw is next week at home versus
the White Sox. I have a feeling that the Petros
and Money Show might have to stick their nose in
that affair.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Oh you think so?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Yeah, though, I think I'm both boycotting the Sweet.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Lives on location. What's wrong the suite?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
They invited too many people last time, and I was
worried that my family couldn't get in, and I basically
had a nervous breakdown.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
And so where'd you sit?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
I sat outside for like two innings to calm down.
At least it wasn't my birthday. Oh wait it what?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, there is a lot of people that go in there. Yeah,
I've been to that, which too much for me. I've
been to that.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
I was told that it would that like, hey, don't worry,
you should come. It's gonna be perfect, no one will
be in there. And then it wasn't that way, and
my family wasn't in there yet. There are kids and everything,
and I.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Just yeah, my kid was running around there at about
two years old, and.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I became a little upset and I left the room.
It's chaos. I'm still very upset about it's chaos. Still
not happy about it. But I'll do the show and
then I'll leave. But I'm never accepting tickets to the
suite ever. Again. Don't do me any favors ever again.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, put that in your gift pipe and smoke it wee.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yeah, the Angels at forty and forty they are off today.
I did talk to the concierge of the sports lodge,
Trent Rush. Yeah, on my way up to Well. You know,
it's that time of year, you know, all the play
by play guys start sniffing around. I got a call
from Guy Haberman yesterday, Tim Brando the week before, all
(09:53):
the play by plague. Have you heard anything about the
Cup coming season? You know you're working with Hey heard
any rumors? Bope?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Is now the time to address that?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Well? I mean I'm going in a couple of weeks
till Vegas for the Mountain West Media Day, and I
was invited to the College Football Seminar. So I'm assuming
I'm working for Fox again in the fall. Now, That's
all I could say.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Now, are you gonna let Timmy Chang intimidate you like
you did last last.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Year with the two tall boys? Stared the crap out
of me? You're right? How did you know? Do you
want to know what my conversation last year with has
the greatest conversation ever? Are you getting to support you need?
Speaker 1 (10:36):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
I am not back to you in the studio at
least now the whole promotions department hates me for kicking
about to speak. The angels are off today, but there, hey,
the sports lodge is booked. People are screaming for towels there.
The concierge of the sports lodge is on the phone constantly.
(10:59):
Trent Rush two folds to his head. The Tampa Bay
shortstop Wander Franco was found guilty of sexual abuse of
a minor and the Dominican Republic for an illegal sexual
relationship with the fourteen year old girl when he was
twenty one. He received a two year prison sentence, but
that sentence will be suspended by the judge if he
fails to be conditioned set by the judge, the main
(11:20):
one being he does not approach any miners with sexual
intention Hey next time, Hey, you listen next time. If
I even see you approaching a minor with sexual intentions, wander,
you're gonna wander way back into that Dominican prison.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Was right after he said a ten year deal, right,
I think he said a ten year, two hundred million
dollars deal.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
He'll he'll have to serve the sentence if he ever
approaches a woman that's a miner. Ever again, he won't
be able to get a visa to come to the USA,
so his days of playing major league baseball are done.
But he could be fistfighting Yasiel Puig in some weird league.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Oh yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Any moment, it's gonna be him versus Bower.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
In Guadalajara.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Second round of the draft. What do we got? Kate
got mom mout.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
I know you guys are out on this, but I
just need to update you real quick. What's happening. The
Lakers picked again, moving up from fifty five. They moved
all the way up to number thirty six in a
trade with Minnesota via Brooklyn, and they picked a young
man out of Arkansas, Adu Thero who played two years
at Kentucky and then went to Arkansas following John Calipari.
(12:29):
As we mentioned right now the draft is that pick
number forty three, Utah is on the clock. There are
so many trades happening, picks being swapped, it is confusing.
Chaslanier at a Tennessee got picked. That was a big
name during the NCAA tournament. Kay Peeve from Georgetown went.
The big guard from Georgetown went number forty. A lot
of names you've heard a lot of European players and
(12:50):
a lot of trades happening, guys. A lot of confusion
if you ask me. In the second round of the
NBA draft, a lot of trade confusion.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Cooper Flags and number one pick Dallas Mavericks GM Nico
Harrison is hoping and assuming that some of the public
backlash directed toward him after Luka Doncics trade will subside.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Now, okay, I mean Lucas getting in shape, so you
might end up to deal with with Luca all of
a sudden, looking slim and trim.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Yeah, yeah, slim Luca Yeah and old Lebron Lakers guard
Austin Reeves has decided to hold out for a bigger paycheck.
He reportedly declined a max contract extension with the Lakers
earlier this week. That would have been a four year
deal worth eighty nine point two million. The contract was
the largest offer of the Lakers could give Reeves this
offseason in terms of years and dollars. His decision is
(13:42):
not a reflection of relationship with the organization. Instead, Reeves
is expected to play out the third season of his
four year, fifty four million dollar contract he's signed in
twenty twenty three. Decline his player option for twenty six
and twenty seven and become an unrestricted, skinny shouldered white
free agent next summer, where a bigger payday awaits.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I mean, listen, LeVar Arrington and I talked about this
this morning. It feels like white guys are taking over basketball.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah, it's a big day. I even saw Clay Travis,
who's a big proponent for the white man, Yes he is.
I even saw Clay Travis tweet out, Hey, this is
a big year for the whites. Oh yeah, Oh you
get Cooper de Jean. We got Cooper Flatt take it over. Yeah,
we got We were going it's going on for the whites.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
It's kind of the point that we're now like, yeah, fine,
you could have Babe Ruth we fought against over years,
you could have him.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Second half of Indianapolis, the fever's taking on the La Sparks. No,
Clayton Clark, she's not playing because of a groin injury,
so no one's gonna watch. No. It's unfortunately, Uh, former
Ravens kicker Justin Tucker you mean Tuger, Yeah, Dick Puller,
that's his name, has been suspended for the first ten
(14:49):
weeks of the twenty twenty five regular season after the
NFL found that he violated the Personal Conduct Policy. No
appeal was negotiated. With the settlement justin Tucker gets one
game less than Deshaun Watson, who got an eleven game
suspension in twenty twenty two for similar massage antics.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yeah, Bob Kraft gets suspended too, or no, well yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Come on, I mean, wait, it's guys an owner. Okay,
what are you gonna do? Guy owns the league? Wonder
what I'm saying is you think they could just find
one person with the real good g I Joe kung
fu grip, and you know, just stick with that person, Yeah,
and not try to seduce like random messuses around town.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
I mean, if it wasn't for a pitch count, you know,
Dave Roberts would have the same guy in there who's
hot every time. Like, but you've got a pitch count,
you've got the arms get tired. I don't know if
there's that much fatigua.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
I can't He's through sixty four.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I was like, listen, I've seen her. Listen, I've seen
her two days in a row. She's exhausted. It's the
middle of summer.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
She's my starting closer. But she's already made four appearances
this week.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I mean she's found the zone every time.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Touched up in the night. They're exhausted. I always allude to.
People are like, well, how hard can it be? I
was like, well, you know, you see all those chicks
at the end of the Risky Business night. They were exhausted.
You know, the hookers were like smoking cigarettes looking all tired. Oh,
the girls were exhausted. They're counting the money to morning's
(16:17):
sitting there with top cruise.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I just love how Deshaun Watson and Justin Tucker are like, no, no,
we deny, we deny that this happened. Which one? You
know what I mean? Like, which one? The first two
it's like bigger and more.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Oh no, I pulled way away early, pulled out way
early on that one. There's nothing to there's no there's
no truth for those educations whatsoever. Why why did you
talk to her? All right? Everybody, David Massey, we'll talk
to us from the tarmac or the boss or something.
Traveling with the Dodgers next.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
We've made it even easier to take La sports with
you this summer. Make am five to seventy or your
favorite AM five seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on

Speaker 3 (17:11):
Welcome back everybody, the Petro sand Money Show. Happy to
be with you on AM five to seventy LA Sports
Tomorrow Dodgers at Royals. David Vassay brilliant job on Spectrum
sportsnet LA today and he'll be on all weekend long.
In Kansas City strutting with some barbecue like Lewis Armstrong
(17:34):
or the great Kansas City jazz man, Count Basie, who
is actually from Red Bank, New Jersey like Jay and
Silent Bob, but made his bones in Kansas City unless
it was Saint Louis either way. David Vassa joining us
now the home of the Dodgers with an inside look
at the Dodgers. This is the vass Report with David
(17:56):
van give it another try with some good Jonas Knox diplomy.
David vase after some great work on TV, and he'll
be doing it all weekend, long hour Dodger Reporter on
AM fi seventy LA Sports on Twitter at the Reel
Underscore dv MLB Network two, brought to you by Service
Titan dot Com. Hello Dave, how are you?
Speaker 7 (18:17):
I'm doing great, guys. Good day for the Dodgers and
Clayton Kershaw just three away from three thousand as he is.
His next start, he should get it against the White
Sox at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Thanks for joining us, Dave. We know you're in transit
with the team to Kansas City and it's been you
know that thin air does take a toll on you,
but you sound good. Why'd they take him out so early, Dave?
It felt like they want to wait till he's at
home to do it. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
David Roberts even said that before the game he would
be tempted if he got close to take him out
so he could achieve that milestone in front of the
home fans. But look, it was a really hot day
here at Corsfield, being right next to the dugouts. I
know the the thermometers said ninety degrees, but on the
field it was at least ninety five degrees. And it's
(19:05):
not just about the pitch counts, even though he only
threw sixty nine pitches to the up and downs and
just what they're reading as far as with their eyes.
And also they got technology as well that tells them
whether or not the stuff is trending down. So all
of that contributed to taking him out after six innings today.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Dave, is this about, Well, I'm freaking out about this day.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
I'm worried about that. And you know, I've tried to
tell Jonas. You know, it's not easy on the road.
You know, I'm sorry. Just before we start, Just go ahead,
I'm sorry. Three, two, Just go Dave. Are you surprised?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Are the Dodger surprised with where Kershaw's at at this
point following his journey back, his recovery and just where
he's at this many starts.
Speaker 7 (19:47):
In I mean, to be doing what he's doing. It's
one thing to be out there, but to be dominating
the way he is, especially in these last four starts.
I mean, he's not just going out there to go
out there a ceremonial way and to chase a personal milestone.
He's going out there to win. And that's the reason
why he's able to be four and oh with an
(20:07):
Elra hovering just around three. I mean a lot of
guys that have harder velocity in baseball don't even do
what he's doing right now in his last four starts,
and you know that's the that's the thing that everybody's
marveling at that he's doing it this way. It's not
with ninety five or ninety six, eighty nine, eighty eight,
(20:28):
and he's still being able to get hitters out and
you know, making quick work of them like he did today. Hie,
David question, No, that's.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
A clown question. David Vass is our guest. That's a
clown question.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Bro.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
We're happy to have him on. He's joining us from
in Transit to Kansas City with the Los Angeles Dodgers
who swept the Colorado Rockies. They got through the tough
part of I go now, okay, No, I'm just kidding
what he got. Why would you do that to me?
I don't deserve that after promoting you and your stupid
dead fish handshake? Have they lined up? Have they lined
(21:09):
up for the handshake?
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Came up to me in the clubhouse out of nowhere
and wanted the dead fish handshake even though he didn't play.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Have they lined up? I mean Conforno's hot now, I
mean two straight games he's that's two best straight games
he's had. And you can't say it's not because of
the dead fish handshake. At what point are they gonna
line up for the dead fish handshake in Kansas City? Dave?
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Yeah, I feel like Freddie Freeman needs to dip in
with the dead fish handshake. Even really drove in to
go ahead run today, he wasn't happy with his at bat,
So I feel like Freddy needs to get out of
that Freddy funk with some dead fish handshakes. I don't
know if the magic works on future Hall of Famers,
but it certainly has worked on JD. Martinez and Michael CONFORDO.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Well, congratulations, David. Is heartwarming to see that it has
worked out.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I mean, look, if you got to stick with what works,
you got to stick with what the trend is. If
the you know, the handshake works and you can get
these guys off the sneid, make it happen. Did Max
Munsey partake in this because it seems like his power
numbers have gone up in recent weeks.
Speaker 7 (22:06):
No, No, it wasn't me. It was doctor Lou that
helped out Max Munsey with identifying that he has a
stigma in one of those eyes and gave him eyeglasses.
So he and Keik, Hernandez have gone out to see
Doctor Lou and he has the magic for the eyes.
I don't have that, Dave.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Overall, how good is Kansas City? What kind of road
trip is this for the Dodgers? You know? Not a
place where used to seeing the Dodgers play. Not a
matchup that we really embrace in the world of old
timey baseball, right.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
I always remind Mark Goubizaw that the eighty five Dodgers
would have beat his eighty five Royals in the World
Series that year. If not for Tom Needhm viewer and
Jack Clark, the Dodgers would have won the World Series
before nineteen eighty eight. But the Royals are struggling right now.
They got shut out again today, So the Dodgers took
care of business against the Rockies, the worst team in
(22:59):
base ball, and right now the Royals offense is not
very good and not much better than the Rockies. So
I would expect at least two out of three, if
not a sweep. And on Saturday Show, Hey Otani is
going to toe the rubber for the third time in
the Dodger uniform.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
That's three straight O'tani outings and three straight David vase,
spectrum sports and at LA appearances? Am I not right
on that?
Speaker 7 (23:25):
You are one hundred percent correct. You're keeping score and
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Now, how long is he expected to be out there for?
Are we going to keep it at a limit until
after the All Star break or what's what's Dave Roberts
thought on that?
Speaker 7 (23:36):
Well, from what I've gathered in what Otani and the
Dodgers have said, it's a gradual build up, right, So
the first two starts were an inning a piece. They
were never going to allow him to go further than that,
So you would imagine that this might be the next
step on the ladder to maybe two innings. I wouldn't
feel like that's unreasonable to expect because basically, in the
(23:58):
way doctor Neil Elatrojh has explain it to me, he's
finishing the rehab. At the major league level, we've never
seen a two way player, and we've never seen a
pitcher finishes rehabbing games. Because it's so unique. He's not
going to leave the team to throw rehab games in
the minor league. So I would say that two innings
(24:18):
is realistic to expect.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
The great David Massey doing the Lord's work on the
road with the Los Angeles Dodgers and bringing the thirsty
public the information, the satiating information that they need. Dave,
I wasn't but three weeks ago that we had fear
in our hearts about New York, the Yankees, the Mats,
and then the Padres twice, and then and then all
(24:44):
the strife that comes with that, The Giants, the Dodgers
have gotten through this pretty beautifully, have they not.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
Yeah, they finished that twenty nine game stretch with the
four game series against the Padres, and during that twenty
nine game stretch, they increased their lead in the nlst
and they went seventeen to twelve, a lot better than
what all of us were expecting considering all the pitching injuries.
So definitely seventeen and twelve during that twenty nine game
(25:10):
stretch Gauntlet was a big win. And now they've got
they just swept the Rockies, they got a struggling Royals team,
and they got a not much better White Sox team
when they return home. So right now they're past the
tough stretch of the first half, so they should be
able to pad the wins even more here.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Dave, how do you go about planning maybe a stopper
two at the stopper two at a new place that you,
guys don't travel to a lot. Have you already started
to scout out some of the local establishments. Have you
already started to look at where you're going to go
get a cold one? Maybe it's been my elbow a
little bit. It's not a clown question, please.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
No, no. Actually, the cameraman that is with us on
the road here, he is home base is in Kansas City.
So he has a good barbecue spot with some live music,
and we're gonna try that on Saturday after the day game.
So you would appreciate this Petro, some zetacoe music. Oh,
at this barbecue place.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Dave had sex with an alligator and came home. I'm
a better man. Check him out on Spectrum Sports at
LA all weekend long our reporter of course on AM
II seventy LA Sports. You'll hear him here as well.
Thank you, Dave, and have a safe trip. We'll talk
to you tomorrow. Maybe all right, guys, thanks here he
goes Davids Hey, and we will return out to you
by service titan. I think you did okay, you know,
(26:31):
I you know, he can say what he wants to say,
but he couldn't. He couldn't step your question.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
You want to know why because I didn't fill him
in on the fact that I'm filling in on Rogan
and Rodney tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Why'd you do it?
Speaker 7 (26:43):
Well?
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Because I told you not to like mixing the brand.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I'm a whore. I can't say no.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
You're just a girl that can't say no. You really
are well. I'm really really reconsidering it. I don't even
want to do the Dead and Alive next. You're doing
Rogan and Rodney tomorrow. Why don't you just lay down
with everybody? You like having someone's hand all over your ass.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I always smell like different cologne when you come in, Donna,
you're the worst.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
We'll be back.

I don't do this often because uh, well when Matt's here,
(30:02):
I just don't do it. But uh we'll do an
athletic I mean it is an athletic based guy. But
a very interesting story because it is such an old story,
the story of Jay Burwanger. Does that name ring a bell?
Speaker 2 (30:19):
It rings a bell, But you're gonna have to give
me a little bit more.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
It's okay, it's understandable. It's an old timy name from
an old time. Jay Burwanger, also known as John Jacob
Burwanger is very famous old football player born in nineteen fourteen,
(30:43):
so that would make him one hundred and thirty one
years old today from Dubuque, Iowa six one ninety five
Dubuke High School rams than the Chicago Maroons. And then
don't you cheat and look at up the University of
Chicago which got rid of football and fraternities shortly after,
(31:07):
which is why you never hear about University of Chicago athletics.
But in that time, the University of Chicago, which is
a very reputable university, as you know as a Chicago
in yourself, they got rid of football. But when he
was there, they were in the Big Ten and he
was called a one man football team. He was also
called the Flying Dutchman even though he was of German descent.
(31:31):
His nose had been broken twice and he wore a faceguard.
We're talking the nineteen thirties, and he was called the
man in the Iron mask. He was the MVP of
the Big Ten. He was an All American. The most
famous football player ever from the University of Michigan is
(31:53):
not who you think it is, Tom Brady or Desmond Howard,
Charles Woodson. It's Gerald Ford, former US president, And in
a game against Jay Berwanger, Gerald Ford got his left
eye cut and he bore the scar for the rest
of his life. Future president.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
It looks like Berwinger. Uh never got that nose fixed.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
No, No. Nineteen thirty five, he was awarded the first
ever Downtown Athletic Club Trophy, which was later renamed the
Heisman Trophy one year later after the director of the
Downtown Athletic Club, John Heisman. How do you get the Heisman?
Way back in thirty five, what wins you the Heisman Trophy?
Jonas five hundred and seventy seven yards rushing, four hundred
(32:39):
and five passing, three hundred and fifty nine in kick return,
and he kicked five extra points, had scored six touchdown.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Yeah, we got your Travis Hunter right here.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Yeah, exactly right. And he was a decathlet and he
competed at the Olympics in the decathlon. He played for
the Now back then, play pro football wasn't like, as
Lebron would say, the a all be all of life.
He played for the Eagles, and of course the Bears,
(33:12):
who basically created modern pro football with the greatness of
Red Grange. The Bears tried to get his rights and
he could not come to terms with the very Chinsea
Greek George Holli. Yeah, so he turned to rugby and
played some rugby in Chicago for a long time, became
a sports writer for a little time, was a referee
(33:35):
for a short time. And you know how people always
make the joke like, what'd you do with the trophy? Oh,
it's a doorstop. That's actually from the Jay Burnwanger story.
The original Heisman trophy was used as a doorstop at
his aunt Gussie's house for many many years. Now it's
(34:00):
in the trophy case at the Dubuque High School, his
alma mater in Iowa. He died at eighty eight in
two thousand and two. Jay Berwanger, the very first Heisman
winner of all time.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
How about that lived to eighty eight after all that
damage to the body.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Well, I just caught a little college actually, you know,
I mean, hey, back then, guys used to get through
the meat grinder in World War One, World War two?
Speaker 2 (34:22):
What do you think rugby was like back there?
Speaker 1 (34:24):
You know?
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Now it's like, oh, my neck hurts from looking at
my cell phone too much.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
I mean, he must have gotten lit up multiple times.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
Who banger. Yeah, yeah, there's no doubt Bernwanger took some hits,
but no more than Red Grange. Now, okay, that's pretty
big for back. That's pretty big for football in the thirties.
That's huge.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
That's a kicker now now, yeah, that says flanker. I mean, listen,
it's a doorstop. It's a heisman used as a door stop.
And there was that speculation based on an AI video
that Djokic used his MVP trophy and let his horses
(35:05):
play round with it.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Yeah, but that's a lie. Yeah, now this is real.
Now do you have the Alive Guy Birthday of the Day?
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Oh, I've got the A Live Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
He did pretty good yesterday with George Michael.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I have to say, yeah, well, there was a lot
going on. It wasn't as good as the Dead Guy
Paul Bear from back in the day. Yeah that was
but Petros. The A Live Guy Birthday of the Day
on this June the twenty sixth, belongs to Christopher Joseph
(35:38):
Isaac Oh born on this day in nineteen fifty six
in Stockton, California.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
Yeah, he's a proud Stockton.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
To Dorothy and Joseph a forkliff Driver, respectively, of Italian
and German ancestry. Chris Isaac attended amos Alonzo Stagg High
School in Stockton. He was the class president of nineteen
seventy four and the valedictorian Charming Guy. He attended local college,
(36:11):
San Joaquin Delta Community College before transferring to the University
of the Pacific. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in
English and Communication Arts in nineteen eighty one, and he
participated in a Japanese exchange program. After graduating, he put
together his first band, Silvertone, a rockabilly group, in nineteen
(36:34):
eighty five.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
He've got a little bit of an Elvis fixation.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Yeah. They signed a contract with Warner Brothers Records. They
released their first album to critical acclaim, including from John Fogerty.
His self titled follow up album for Isaac was released
in nineteen eighty seven and reached the Billboard two hundred.
The album saw Isaac hone his style to sophisticated R
and B. Yes, but it wasn't until nineteen eighty nine
(37:00):
Isaac's Heart Shaped World album that he released this classic
the most well known song Wicked Game. Mark Needham, an
engineer who worked with Isaac on Wicked Game, claim that
it took several years to put the track together. How
I'm not quite sure, Yeah, really not quite sure.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
There's a very unique song.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
It is. But there was a an Atlanta radio station.
Lee Chestnut, an Atlanta radio station music director who was
obsessed with David Lynch films, because this was featured in
a David Lynch film.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
Well, David Lynch has great taste and listened.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
He played the vocal version. It became the station's most
requested song. Chestnut spread the word to other stations and
the single became a national top ten hit in February
of ninety one. After that he released Isaac did some
other not so well known albums. He also did some
small acting role. This is most important lifelong bachelor and
(38:03):
regarding his bachelor static, Isaac stated quote, the longest relationship
I've been in was with my band. My personal relationships
have never lasted because my work was always number one.
It's not that I never thought about marriage and kids,
but I was either busy writing and recording music, acting
or on the road. The kids are like sailboats. They
(38:24):
look good on a sunny day and in the distance,
but require a lot of maintenance.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
Oh, there's no doubt Isaac.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
He's got a point. He's got a point.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Well, he had that show on showtime with the actual band,
like way back in the day, the Chris Isaac Show. Yeah,
really early, like HBO vibes or whatever.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
But other than this song, did he do anything? Oh
any other class?
Speaker 3 (38:45):
I go walking down there forever Blue graduation day. He's
got a lot of good muses.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
I mean he didn't scape any any litigation, though. In
two thousand and three he was sued by his lighting
director of seven years for quote discrimination, wrongful firing, and defamation,
among other churches.
Speaker 5 (39:05):
Oh whatever, Yeah, I mean, that's smatter off the back
of attacking Chris Isaac.
Speaker 2 (39:11):
Here's two hundred bucks, kiss my ass.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
San Francisco Days, another Chris Isaac classic.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
Thanks for making me look like Skinny Elvis in the
music video Pal. Here's here's a couple hundred bucks.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
He's great.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Take a walk.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
I saw him perform recently at the Beach Life Ranch,
and he puts on a great show, Like he really
still got it. Yeah, I mean he's reten. You would
love that show. Like, he does a great show. And
I'm not kidding, Chris Isaac's awesome and he dresses up.
He's got a great sense of humor. He's great. He
(39:43):
does and he does, uh, he does South of the Border,
the Sinatra cover, or at least I know it as
a Sinatra song.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
So when you see these lists come out of one
hit wonders.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
He's not on no, Rodnie, would you say that one?
Speaker 1 (39:59):
No?
Speaker 3 (39:59):
But that was definitely crossover here. This probably was his
biggest Oh yeah, yeah, sure, well because it.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Was not a one hit wonder Was there a supermodel
in the music video?
Speaker 3 (40:07):
Yeah, Linda Evangelista or one of them chicks.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah, he was a heart throwback.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
Oh he still has good looking man. I mean it
wasn't good. I'm not kidding. I'm not trying to wash.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
His ball and lifelong batcher. He probably laid the lumber.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Oh you don't think so. That's what his whole TV
show was about, was all the chicks that he that
he slayed. But his band was like, hey, what's up.
I'm not even kidding. He was in Firewalk with me.
The David Lynch movie.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Friends with Stevie Nicks too, It says, well, who is it?
Speaker 3 (40:41):
You know? For what it's worth, you don't lose the
middle part of your nose hanging out with nobody. What
when you lose the Senate? When you've blown so much
cocaine that you've lost the center divider in your nose,
which Tim Cats is flirting with currently? Uh, you probably
(41:05):
have a lot of real famous friends.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
Oh, Kates is a snowblower.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Oh, you didn't know that cocaine Kates.
Speaker 2 (41:10):
For a reason, No kidding, That's why he's always wired.
