sure to check out Good Morning Football over time weekdays

And if you heard mant Titaya with us earlier this week,
a great NFL analysis in there, Dave. We're good through
one hour. We have we have not three, two hours
and about forty minutes to go. We're good.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Well, I'm happy to sit here through the night if
you if you'd like to do that, especially if we
have some modella to crack from that fridge right behind me.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
What do we got oo? We only have two surfside
raspberry lemonade and vodka.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
What a disappointment.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Or a black cherry lemonade in vodka. Now that's a
little better, right, that's more of my flavor. I like
a nice cherry. Okay, I could do that. There we
go that.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
I will do. Crack that one open and answer me this.
We were talking about boyhood Matt money Smith on the
South side of Chicago, and he, of course, like any
Chicago and I assume of a certain age, wore a
Walter Payton thirty four, but then you transition into a
number nine. Jim McMahon, the question is now, in the
year of Our Lord, twenty twenty five, if you had
(03:36):
that NFL shop loot and could buy yourself one jersey, yes,
who is the jersey you would purchase in all of
pro football?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It is a great question because it allows me to
stand on my soapbox and preach what I have now
preached having seen it. I've been calling NFL game since
two thousand and eleven, and it's a constant reminder that
if I'm not a jersey guy, I like the hooded sweatshirt.
I like, you know, I like wearing team gear, but
(04:04):
I prefer like I'm gonna get like the coolest looking
hooded sweatshirt or windbreaker or something that's just more my style.
But if you're gonna buy a jersey, do yourself a
favor and buy one of the greats. Just buy someone
who is retired who the legacy cannot be changed. They
can't fall apart, they can't demand a trade, they can't
be a two year You know, I saw we were
(04:26):
just in Tennessee, and I saw at least I'd say
at least and to me, this is a big number,
at least five will Levis jerseys, like.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Don't do that in the age of agency. You're absolutely right,
it can get sideways and those jerseys ain't cheap.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
So a number twenty seven, a George, get a number
twenty seven, eighty George, get a number ninety. Javon Kurz
smart and you're good. There's that, you know, A Steve McNair,
just like a hell get a number forty one Lorenzo Neil.
It's what you should do. So, yes, that's what I
would if I if I were forced to buy a jersey,
I would buy a Lorenzo O'Neil.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Or who he blocked for LT. But of course Ladanian
will tell you a great story that on his record
breaking touchdown that season, the guy who was always running
right in front of him, Low Neil, fell down and
he had to jump over him on the end zone.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Low Low He's you know I do. I do the
pod with him every week on Wednesdays, the Charger Podcast,
and he's got the best stories, and it's like, this
is what's sort of funny about football players, and it's
certainly it's not it's not fair to put them all
in the same category. But it's just an observation of
having and you've talked to a million of them, and
(05:44):
we've worked with so many of them. They but it
is funny how the further Petros has said this all
the time as well, the further you get from the
ball at snap kind of less about football you are
like when you when you end up into these football
like with Lowe, who had to essentially just put his
face into physical violence every single snap. He's just one
(06:07):
of the most genuine has an incredible memory for every
single play, how important all of his teammates were, like
it was never about him, it was all about all
stot and it was and one of the great things
that people don't remember. And when I went to Tennessee,
he said, money, listen, you going it in them lines
on Halloween Night and you want to go into those
(06:28):
one of those bars, you just call me. You call
me and you show who you're talking to to the
bouncer and they're gonna let you ride in. I was like, really,
just from your couple of years and Tennis goes. I
fielded the Music City Miracle. Remember I had to toss
the ball to Frank. Frank did not receive that onside kick.
I received the on side kick, had to locate why
(06:51):
check within a split second for this thing to work.
And I'm the one that pitched the ball so the
Music City miracle could get set up. In the first
cop depletely forgot about everybody. Does you know what serendipity
in terms of conversation, because one Petros papadak Is tweeted
earlier today that it is the anniversary. However long ago
(07:11):
it was eighty two. I think of the play cal Stanford,
the pitch, playoffs, the kickoff, the band is on the
field and all of that, and what you see halfway
through that play, if you look at it closely at all,
is somewhere around midfield. The guy has the ball and
he doesn't just his knee doesn't just touch the field
before ela. I mean, he's been down for a second.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
It's a long time. And it does make me think
if you went back and had replay review, how many
plays you would disrupt in sports history, specifically in football history.
That's a great question. But also I like your idea
about the retro jerseys, the whatever. The opposite of retro
(07:55):
is the uh, the sage, the depressiant Daniel Son, I
still am fascinated to buy this all these years later.
You know Daniel LaRusso, he's a Jersey kid, right, and
he moves out to the valley not too far from
where Dave Damishik made his roots. A number of years ago.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
You got yourself one of those nice pools in the
middle of your apartment complexes.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Don't get me.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I know it's one of your things. That's why I
did it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Please, please, don't get me upset. I'm trying to have
a nice time. Miagi.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
There it comes.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
He has his qualities obvious certainly. You know he knows
the ancient art and he knows how to teach it.
But also had a used free child labor. I don't
know what name you want to put on that, but
he did that. But before any of that, oh.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Back in that time, that was how you taught lessons
to young children. You know you what making it? You
know you got to get your hands dirty. You want
a reward, well you got to put in some sweat
equity if you're going to get the reward. Something don't come.
Some is one thing.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Fourteen hours on your hands and knees, scraping sanding down
on the deck so that you have a nice second home.
He's a maintenance man. You understand at the wax the car.
This is good for us to talk about that only
forty something years ago, that.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
It's all muscle memory.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, you're the one who brought me into this. Now listen.
The point is he is a maintenance man for this
apartment complex. But he's busy with his bondz eye trees
so much so that that when Laruso and his mom
show up to move into their new home, they're like, oh,
we have a pool. It'll be nice and so cow
they get there and it's a cesspool about a third
full of dirty water. Clean the pool, your work man,
(09:36):
This an't time for you to be trimming your trees
getting a pool. If you have some extra time, then
you know, well we'll talk, right But okay, Laruso, he
has no friends. He's a newcomer, right. He goes to
the Halloween party. Indeed, he has the worst costume you've
ever seen in your life. He doesn't know anybody, so
what does he do. He goes as a shower. A shower.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
It's very awkward, hard to talk to anybody because you've
got this massive footprint thing.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Even if you have friends, it's a weird thing to do.
And maybe if you if you have a lady friend,
now maybe you're cooking with Dash, you get, Yeah, a
shower shower too, about a shower. Ain't nobody joining him
in that shower? But underneath that he has on a
tattered number eighty nine San Diego Chargers West Chandler, Jersey.
(10:24):
He just moved here from Jersey. When did he become
a Chargers fan? Wasn't on any trip in La. It
wasn't in La because the Chargers, like I just said,
played in San Diego. What the hell?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Three words for you? Miracle in Miami.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Think a gang.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Think about how many kids came to love those iconic
Charger Royal blues and Dan Fouts and that particular crew
from that much much like I'm sure you experienced. And
every neighborhood had the Miami Dolphin fan because they got
to look at those uniforms and they got to look
at number thirteen and what he was doing, and they
were just like the hell with my old man, I'm
(11:05):
a Dolphins fan. You're right, Dan Marino. So I bet
that with the West.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
I almost was won over by those Dolphins. I hated
the Chargers because they had vanquished the Steelers. But yes,
that was and still maybe stands as the single greatest
football game of the Super Bowl era. The Miracle of Miami.
That really people talk about Kellen Winslow and he had
the heat stroke and they had to carry him off
the field with the thirteen catches, and he blocked a
(11:30):
field goal and the heroics of David Woodley gets replaced
when West Chandler returns a punt to make it twenty
four to nothing in the Orange Bowl against the home Dolphins.
They put in Don Shula says, go to the pen,
give me Don Strock, the greatest relief pitcher in pro
football history. He comes in and hooking ladder to Duriel
(11:52):
Harris on the last play the game. What it boiled
down to, though, was, and it's the undercovered element of
this great game. It was a battle of Bavarian kickers.
It was Ouve von Shaman.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
One of the history of the NFL.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Bested by Rolf Banershka right about that two German fellas
Settlin ar Hatch. It was eight side. It was a
different time. You had to go international. If you wanted
to find. I mean, think about the number of international
kickers we had back then that worst I shouldn't say stars,
but were the kickers of their time. That's right. At
(12:28):
some point we transitioned into going American maid we we
refused to. I'm not as much. I assume we still
have some guys from overseas.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Theossi punters, for sure. Yeah, the guy at uh have
you seen the guy at Hawaii? The Japanese guy. Oh no,
the Tokyo tow Oh no, Yeah, he's uh he is.
Petros brought it up yesterday I think, or maybe the
day he brought up the day before. He is like
twenty two for twenty two one extra points, or like
(12:59):
thirty three for thirty three on extra points, in like
twenty two for twenty two on field goals. The Tokyo
to Kenzi Matsuzawa. There we go, Kenzai Matsuzawa.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
This may be counterintuitive, but I sincerely advocate the kickers
are too good now, and they're warping the point of
the sport or the strategies that coaches want to employ
and that we desire as fans. The swinging of legs
shouldn't settle so many games, especially from sixty yards away.
I say we ban side side winding kickers legitimately and
(13:30):
go to head on kickers. Paul Hornig, the legend the
Golden Boy in the early sixties. In his last year
as the Packers plays kicker, along with being there to
do it all offensive star made one third of his
field goal attempts. Wouldn't there be a better game? Wouldn't
there be a more fun thing for it? Not to
be guaranteed every time you get over the fifty yard
(13:51):
line to assume, well, we have three points bank now,
now we just can we score a touchdown?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Many people say no kickers, Okay, let's get rid of
them all.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
That's that's a little severe for me. Head on though,
can be fat, Yeah, can have half a foot like
Tom Dempsey did.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
How do you think you kicked that sixty three yard
or whatever?
Speaker 3 (14:09):
The hell? He had a two iron in his shoe.
Let we celebrate it, by the way.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
To Tokyo to learn to kick field goals and extra
points from YouTube. Look at that, Wow, Tokyo to I
just hope for my kids. Yet we said a word
number song. We'll do that in our next segment and
we'll give away that gift card right when we come back,
Like right when we come back, Chris, we'll give away
(14:33):
that gift card. That's next.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
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
the iHeartRadio ap using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Road Trip, all summer with LA Sports. All right, right now,
we told you we wouldn't make you wait long eight
six six nine eight seven two five seventy. That last
one hundred dollars gift card to the NFL Shop, and
you are our final finalist to win the grand prize,
two nights at Resorts World, four tickets to Raiders v.
(15:15):
Broncos at Allegiance Stadium on December seventh. We'll give that
away in about a half hour. But right now, caller
ten eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy,
our final finalist for the NFL Shop gift card and
the qualifier for the grand prize. Drawing there now, we
(15:35):
have to keep this on the up and up.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
This can't be We can't subjectively choose this person. This
has game show type rules. It legal is involved.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Right, and it's and it's from the NFL, so it's
like NFL rules as well. So we have to get
our winner here and then this winner, along with the
other four winners, are sent upstairs where we are not welcome.
We are you know, we we are down here in
the slums of the radio world.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Got the ag Pass Kick competition or what.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
It's just kind of like legals gotta take the five
finalists and apparently they have some sort of hopper up there,
you know. I don't know if it's a bingo wheel
or what, but they're the ones that have to select
the grand prize.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
I'd like to select it based on how they're going
to spend the loot. I'd like to vet these people.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Well, the loot is just a prize, like there's oh,
you mean one hundred dollars one hundred dollars, Well that
we choose. Kate's just got who's our winner, Kates? The
winner was Edgar Fernandez from the nine to four nine. Yeah, Edgar,
I hope you're a real Edgar. That's what I'm hoping. So,
Edgar Fernandez is our final finalist. Kate's has now packaged
(16:42):
our five winners together. He will take it upstairs, hand
deliver it in a briefcase that's locked and being monitored
by Ernst and Young.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
And then I was gonna say, is David Stern gonna
be digging around in a bag right looking for a
chili slip of papers?
Speaker 2 (16:58):
My idea was is a former programmer, you know, I
was always sort of I'm always very hyper focused on contesting,
and how can we maximize our listen listenership for people
that just want to win prizes, you know, and increase
people that are exposed to the Petros and Money Show.
And Dave damashek where can they hear you now?
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Dave Football, American Football? Find your podcast? Stay it on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
YouTube, so they're turned on to you. And and maybe
they weren't aware of you and all of you know,
the things that you've observed over your many years on
this earth of ours, this this big blue marble, Like
what is why is Miyagi you know, shirking his maintenance
duties to trim some mini trees while the pool at
the apartment complex falls in?
Speaker 3 (17:40):
It doesn't just survive live, but do it on your
own time? Man, You're getting paid to clean the pool
exactly right?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
It cost me rent charge extra thirty bucks a month
back then I've got a working pool. But point being,
I wanted to give it away. And then ten minutes
in that same segment later do the grand prize drawing, like, hey,
not only are you gonna win that final finalist, but
bang right away, here's your grand prize. That's how we
maximize our listenership. In Kates is like, I can't do it,
(18:08):
can't do it. It's like, why can't we do it?
What's the problem?
Speaker 3 (18:10):
I can't do it?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
So got to send it upstairs the legal it's the NFL,
the shields in vaults. I saw a quizz show. Yeah,
so there you go. Yeah, we don't want a quizz show.
Wildly underrated film, by the way, I.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Believe pretty good, maybe the best year for movies in
the history of people.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
One of Redford's many overlooked triumphs. Quiz Show, River runs
through It also fantastic.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
A wonderful movie, and a great sad end and a
great novel as well, even as they always say the
novel is a little bit better than the picture, and
the picture is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I don't know why I always felt the need to
do it, but I always do, and I can't help
myself now. I just can't hold my tongue. I always
say Redford fantastic, but he's no Paul Newman. I just can't.
I don't know why I feel the need to pit
those two against each other. They're both brilliant, they're both sensational.
But for whatever reason, I feel like too many people
hold Redford.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Here's my outing well, because he's a handsome devil like
Brad Pitt. People almost the looks. I'm not gonna get
in the complaining right now, but you know I've been
there very often. You know, no matter what you got
going on the inside, you know how much how much
information you look the brain up with, and no matter
how big the heart is very hard just look at
(19:23):
the service. Yeah, I have a mirror. I see what
you see. Sure it's terrific, it's it's ruggedly handsome. But
there's something underneath that matters too. That's me. But anyway,
hot take for you see, if you agree with this,
we tend to lie in eyes, we tend to genuflect to.
I mean the same thing in sports, you know Bill
Russell as the greatest basketball player of all time, or
would be would be impossibly, he would defect. He would
(19:45):
take down Shack. No, he wouldn't. He's six foot nine.
He would He would be out moded. He would have
no place in today, much like Wayne Gretzky might not
have much of a role in today's NHL or at
least even No that well, that's inaccurate. Mary Olemieu would
die the NHL. He would laugh, but he would. He
would not. Wayne Gretzky would not be he would be
(20:05):
an all star. He would not be the Wayne Gretzky,
you know. Now, that's all you know. These are things
So Redford or whoever Clark Gable or whoever you want
to sing songs about from decade Eryl Flynn, Fine, you
know who maybe the greatest movie star of all time?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Don't say Tom Cruise.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Tom Cruise. That's exactly who I was gonna say.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Now, I guess now it's all coming. Everybody's doing the
Tom Cruise thing. Now, what do you mean, everybody's doing well,
he just got the honorary Oscar and so all of
these long form pieces about Tom Cruise is our last
great superstar? Is our movie star? You know, a true
shining star on the hill, someone who puts together.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Did you see the Last Mission? Impossible?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
I enjoyed it. It was like part seven of a
seven part series. Yet I took my daughter and she
was like, what's going on? I was like, oh yeah,
I forgot. You got to see the three prior to understand.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
All right, listen to Daniel day Lewis, who may or
may not actually act since he since he abused himself
in the lifestyle of the character, so then he becomes
that guy. He's great, But would he launch himself on
a on a motorcycle going one hundred miles an hour
off of a cliff.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
He would not take the role, but he hang.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Himself off of a bye plane. Literally.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Daniel day Lewis doesn't want to be Ethan Hunt. He
wants to be a cripple that has to write with
his foot.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
But that's but that's what Cruse does, didn't you didn't
you see Jerry Maguire did rain Mans Magnolia. I'm not
urging he's splendid in these pictures.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
I prefer I prefer to to eat at a different restaurant.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
All right, well, I'll go that was all Australia and DiCaprio.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Don't you ever say a bad word about DiCaprio.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
You won't hear it from me. Once upon a time
in Hollywood alone?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Is at alone?
Speaker 3 (21:52):
What's eating Gilbert Grave?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Come on right now?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
You ever?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Well?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Not okay?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Personally?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I like basketball diaries.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Boy, you guys are getting suddenly you're you're it's the
guys behind the glass getting way back.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
And we start talking about the movies and everyone, you know,
everyone can kind of weigh in because there's no wrong
answer our.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
DiCaprio and Pitt this generation's Newman and Redford, who we
must compare for the for the remainder of their respective lives.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Sure, did the two of them ever act in a
movie together?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
I just said, once upon a time in Hollywood?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (22:30):
I know they did.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
But going back to uh, Redford and Newman.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
No, they never were in a movie together. Is that
a real question? Tim Kates? No, it's not.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Now I'm confused.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Now now you know what? Now Kate's has piqued my interest?
Does he not know?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
But cas, is there any other that you could name
and don't without the benefit of a laptop in front
of you the sting Yes, oh there.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
You one of the great instrumentals that you could live.
There are very few instrumentals that you can throw on
and be like, I'm going to listen to this until
it's conclusion, and the Sting is one of those. The
entertainer is the name of the song.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
It's all this all is a straw man conversation because
the correct answer, Harrison Ford, he goes, We've talked about this.
The window you're talking about streak is unbeaten for him,
I I don't have it in the right chronology. It
goes something like Empire strikes back, Raiders is the last
(23:34):
Dark Blade Runner, Return of the Jedi, then another.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Doctor Jones at film.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
He's great in.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
It, but it's not a great film. I'll give you Raiders,
and I'll give.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
You it's iconic. It wraps up this star It's not
terrible there it actually is. If you go back and
watch it, it's hard to watch. Like you can watch
Star Wars and you could watch Empire, but we Walks
are not great. It's not you know, the Java stuff
is great. It starts up, but then like once it
gets to the middle, it's like, oh this thing is
(24:09):
it's it's not doing what it's supposed to do here.
This is sort of the beginning of the end of
the Star Wars franchise that we're watching. I don't I'm
not gonna argue too hard on that one. But again,
Harrison Ford, the human being, volunteered the best idea that
was rejected, which was, if you want to add some
gravity to this, to this wrap up of the trilogy,
(24:29):
kill Han solo. That would have been a great move.
Star Wars, Raiders, Blade Runner, Jedi. Oh and I should
have said Empire, not Star Wars. So Empire Raiders, Blade Runner, Jedi,
Temple of Doom. And then how about these two back
to back, Witness and Mosquito Coast. I mean, John Book
(24:52):
is a great sho.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
John Book is one of the great characters. Witness is
one of the most wildly.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
It makes his love on an Amish woman right inside
like great. It doesn't even take him long to wear
her down. She just swoons for him. You call a
guy like that rolling through these parts. If I were
an Amish woman, I would do the exact same thing
she did. Who's gonna know, true, right, she's not gonna
tweet about it. Came absolutely But Book is a great character,
(25:20):
of course. But if you're an actor, you're immediately in
the top ten if you play doctor Indiana Jones or
Han solo or Rick Deckard in Blade Runner. He did
all three in the span of like five years. Or
Ryan Oh my, I don't know if I can pick
(25:41):
myself off the floor. He's the greatest movie star of
all time.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
It's pretty hard to beat.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Never won an Oscar or anything. No, No, should have
President of the United States. Right, don't you come here
bark at me like some junkyard dog. Only you know
aim as Kyle Shanahan has had nothing but great quarterbacks
except for Trey Lance. Everybody's got their one. Unfortunately, Harrison
(26:07):
Ford had regarding Henry not great. Gets shot in the head,
turns dippy but more lovely. But but but his heart grows,
he loses.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I don't think I ever saw it.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
He loses his intellect, but he makes up for it
and how with a big, big heart. Weird, weird message.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Interesting. I don't think I ever saw it. And it
seems like a film that would be on cable all
the time. Go do yourself a favor tonight. Well, I
guess you're gonna go see your daughter playing.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Good for you. I'm jealous of you. But when you
have some free time. You're the Chargers are on a
bye this weekend. Do yourself a favor if you haven't
seen it. Rogue one, that's one of the three. That's
one of the three best of the Star.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Wars because it's not like a Star Wars film everybody dies.
It's great, like it's marvelous. Spoilerly, it's ten years old.
Not that big of a da.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Well, we already knew that. Canby tells it to Skywalker
and you know.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
How they got it exactly. Ronnie still got to do
a song of the day, still got to do Yeah
you do. Ronnie still got to do some NFL picks.
I did so much sports prep and Shek comes in
and this is what happens, and it's wonderful. We'll be
back Ronnie, Song of the Day, the Grand Prize, drawing
all those great things as Shek is in for p
here on a five seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Hello, PMS listener, Did you know Am five seventy LA
Sports has a wide range of LA Sports podcasts. There's
Rogan and Rodney.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
That one is my favorite.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Dodger Talk with David Vasse, the Dodger podcast of.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Record, Clipper Talk, without a musk.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Follow us all and many more.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Just go to Am five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
All right, quick one here, quick one here. I got
to get my picks in because you know so, I mean,
come on, dude, that long last Let's pick some prof
real quick, real quick. I'll do uh. I'll do number
the day here, really number the day one in zero
after taking the Texans. Took the Texans in the five
(28:17):
and a half last night, So thank you Houston forgetting
me that I am going to take because I went
oh for four last week. So I got some scar
tissue and I'm upset with some teams. I want to
take the Chiefs, but they did me dirty last week,
so I'm gonna take the hook. The hook's bringing me back.
I'm going to take the Colts and the three and
a half. I lost two games on the hook last week,
(28:37):
so I want.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
You better not lose straight up or they may really
be done.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I like I like that defensive indie. I just feel
like Amo's just starting to get things right. Sauce is healthy.
It's another week of getting settled and figuring it out.
So you're predicting that the Chiefs. You're trying to thread win.
I'm gonna thread the needle here. I think the Chiefs win,
but I think it's a tight, tight game. I hope
they lose. You know, my hope as a Charger guy
(29:04):
is that they lose. I would love them to be
five and six.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Imagine if they're not one of the seven teams in
the tournament from the AFC side, it'd be wild.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
But it's a very real possibility. There's a chance the
tiebreakers that they need to win this or.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Thee that people aren't talking about that much is with
Joe Burrow back with the Bengals. If since he knocks
off the Ravens, there's it's plausible that the Ravens are
gonna miss it too.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the Rams minus seven. I'm gonna
take the Jags and lay the three in Arizona. And
to honor you, Dave, I'm gonna take the Steelers in
the two and a half points. I think that defense
can rattle Caleb CAUs some turnovers, some short field run
the ball, just defensively get that win, like a fifteen
(29:47):
to ten kind of thing or something like that.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Oh I'm bullish. Or if I didn't have a rooting interest,
I would be bullish on the Bears taking care of business.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
I think that's the reverse jinkson you.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Well, Burger loses this one drops the six and five
day and going to the playoffs. But then again, like
I just said about the Ravens, you may wind up
with the AFC North being champiing nine and eight.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Do you have a word of the day?
Speaker 3 (30:12):
I do, and it's about his word.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
The word of the day.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
One of the stars of the aforementioned Kansas City Chiefs.
They're tight end. He's been in the news and not
just about football the last couple of years.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
I noticed.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Yeah, Travis Kelcey. He says he's still undecided on his
football future. The thirty six year old is in the
last year of his contract. He reiterated the day that
he doesn't know if he's going to retire or come
back for what would be his fourteenth season in twenty six.
He plans to decide on whether to return to the
Chiefs by early March, before free agency.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Oh thanks for considering us.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
I mean, yeah, you're really jamming up your team a
little bit to carry it that long. And by the way,
I feel like he is the Chief's touchdown leader on
pace for his eighth season with over one thousand yards.
Pretty good season for a thirty six year old man.
He's no longer the straw that stirs the drink in
that offense, though he's gonna retire right now.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
I assume so.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I mean I patched those Taylor Swift checks. If that's
Betta ball, I will bet that he hangs it up.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
This is the Song of the Day.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is the title of today's Song of the
Day from singer, musician and actor from the nineteen fifties
and sixties, Guy Mitchell, specifically selected for today to welcome

And if you heard mant Titaya with us earlier this week,
a great NFL analysis in there, Dave. We're good through
one hour. We have we have not three, two hours
and about forty minutes to go. We're good.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Well, I'm happy to sit here through the night if
you if you'd like to do that, especially if we
have some modella to crack from that fridge right behind me.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
What do we got oo? We only have two surfside
raspberry lemonade and vodka.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
What a disappointment.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Or a black cherry lemonade in vodka. Now that's a
little better, right, that's more of my flavor. I like
a nice cherry. Okay, I could do that. There we
go that.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
I will do. Crack that one open and answer me this.
We were talking about boyhood Matt money Smith on the
South side of Chicago, and he, of course, like any
Chicago and I assume of a certain age, wore a
Walter Payton thirty four, but then you transition into a
number nine. Jim McMahon, the question is now, in the
year of Our Lord, twenty twenty five, if you had
(03:36):
that NFL shop loot and could buy yourself one jersey, yes,
who is the jersey you would purchase in all of
pro football?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It is a great question because it allows me to
stand on my soapbox and preach what I have now
preached having seen it. I've been calling NFL game since
two thousand and eleven, and it's a constant reminder that
if I'm not a jersey guy, I like the hooded sweatshirt.
I like, you know, I like wearing team gear, but
(04:04):
I prefer like I'm gonna get like the coolest looking
hooded sweatshirt or windbreaker or something that's just more my style.
But if you're gonna buy a jersey, do yourself a
favor and buy one of the greats. Just buy someone
who is retired who the legacy cannot be changed. They
can't fall apart, they can't demand a trade, they can't
be a two year You know, I saw we were
(04:26):
just in Tennessee, and I saw at least I'd say
at least and to me, this is a big number,
at least five will Levis jerseys, like.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Don't do that in the age of agency. You're absolutely right,
it can get sideways and those jerseys ain't cheap.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
So a number twenty seven, a George, get a number
twenty seven, eighty George, get a number ninety. Javon Kurz
smart and you're good. There's that, you know, A Steve McNair,
just like a hell get a number forty one Lorenzo Neil.
It's what you should do. So, yes, that's what I
would if I if I were forced to buy a jersey,
I would buy a Lorenzo O'Neil.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Or who he blocked for LT. But of course Ladanian
will tell you a great story that on his record
breaking touchdown that season, the guy who was always running
right in front of him, Low Neil, fell down and
he had to jump over him on the end zone.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Low Low He's you know I do. I do the
pod with him every week on Wednesdays, the Charger Podcast,
and he's got the best stories, and it's like, this
is what's sort of funny about football players, and it's
certainly it's not it's not fair to put them all
in the same category. But it's just an observation of
having and you've talked to a million of them, and
(05:44):
we've worked with so many of them. They but it
is funny how the further Petros has said this all
the time as well, the further you get from the
ball at snap kind of less about football you are
like when you when you end up into these football
like with Lowe, who had to essentially just put his
face into physical violence every single snap. He's just one
(06:07):
of the most genuine has an incredible memory for every
single play, how important all of his teammates were, like
it was never about him, it was all about all
stot and it was and one of the great things
that people don't remember. And when I went to Tennessee,
he said, money, listen, you going it in them lines
on Halloween Night and you want to go into those
(06:28):
one of those bars, you just call me. You call
me and you show who you're talking to to the
bouncer and they're gonna let you ride in. I was like, really,
just from your couple of years and Tennis goes. I
fielded the Music City Miracle. Remember I had to toss
the ball to Frank. Frank did not receive that onside kick.
I received the on side kick, had to locate why
(06:51):
check within a split second for this thing to work.
And I'm the one that pitched the ball so the
Music City miracle could get set up. In the first
cop depletely forgot about everybody. Does you know what serendipity
in terms of conversation, because one Petros papadak Is tweeted
earlier today that it is the anniversary. However long ago
(07:11):
it was eighty two. I think of the play cal Stanford,
the pitch, playoffs, the kickoff, the band is on the
field and all of that, and what you see halfway
through that play, if you look at it closely at all,
is somewhere around midfield. The guy has the ball and
he doesn't just his knee doesn't just touch the field
before ela. I mean, he's been down for a second.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
It's a long time. And it does make me think
if you went back and had replay review, how many
plays you would disrupt in sports history, specifically in football history.
That's a great question. But also I like your idea
about the retro jerseys, the whatever. The opposite of retro
(07:55):
is the uh, the sage, the depressiant Daniel Son, I
still am fascinated to buy this all these years later.
You know Daniel LaRusso, he's a Jersey kid, right, and
he moves out to the valley not too far from
where Dave Damishik made his roots. A number of years ago.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
You got yourself one of those nice pools in the
middle of your apartment complexes.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Don't get me.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I know it's one of your things. That's why I
did it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Please, please, don't get me upset. I'm trying to have
a nice time. Miagi.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
There it comes.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
He has his qualities obvious certainly. You know he knows
the ancient art and he knows how to teach it.
But also had a used free child labor. I don't
know what name you want to put on that, but
he did that. But before any of that, oh.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Back in that time, that was how you taught lessons
to young children. You know you what making it? You
know you got to get your hands dirty. You want
a reward, well you got to put in some sweat
equity if you're going to get the reward. Something don't come.
Some is one thing.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Fourteen hours on your hands and knees, scraping sanding down
on the deck so that you have a nice second home.
He's a maintenance man. You understand at the wax the car.
This is good for us to talk about that only
forty something years ago, that.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
It's all muscle memory.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, you're the one who brought me into this. Now listen.
The point is he is a maintenance man for this
apartment complex. But he's busy with his bondz eye trees
so much so that that when Laruso and his mom
show up to move into their new home, they're like, oh,
we have a pool. It'll be nice and so cow
they get there and it's a cesspool about a third
full of dirty water. Clean the pool, your work man,
(09:36):
This an't time for you to be trimming your trees
getting a pool. If you have some extra time, then
you know, well we'll talk, right But okay, Laruso, he
has no friends. He's a newcomer, right. He goes to
the Halloween party. Indeed, he has the worst costume you've
ever seen in your life. He doesn't know anybody, so
what does he do. He goes as a shower. A shower.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
It's very awkward, hard to talk to anybody because you've
got this massive footprint thing.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Even if you have friends, it's a weird thing to do.
And maybe if you if you have a lady friend,
now maybe you're cooking with Dash, you get, Yeah, a
shower shower too, about a shower. Ain't nobody joining him
in that shower? But underneath that he has on a
tattered number eighty nine San Diego Chargers West Chandler, Jersey.
(10:24):
He just moved here from Jersey. When did he become
a Chargers fan? Wasn't on any trip in La. It
wasn't in La because the Chargers, like I just said,
played in San Diego. What the hell?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Three words for you? Miracle in Miami.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Think a gang.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Think about how many kids came to love those iconic
Charger Royal blues and Dan Fouts and that particular crew
from that much much like I'm sure you experienced. And
every neighborhood had the Miami Dolphin fan because they got
to look at those uniforms and they got to look
at number thirteen and what he was doing, and they
were just like the hell with my old man, I'm
(11:05):
a Dolphins fan. You're right, Dan Marino. So I bet
that with the West.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
I almost was won over by those Dolphins. I hated
the Chargers because they had vanquished the Steelers. But yes,
that was and still maybe stands as the single greatest
football game of the Super Bowl era. The Miracle of Miami.
That really people talk about Kellen Winslow and he had
the heat stroke and they had to carry him off
the field with the thirteen catches, and he blocked a
(11:30):
field goal and the heroics of David Woodley gets replaced
when West Chandler returns a punt to make it twenty
four to nothing in the Orange Bowl against the home Dolphins.
They put in Don Shula says, go to the pen,
give me Don Strock, the greatest relief pitcher in pro
football history. He comes in and hooking ladder to Duriel
(11:52):
Harris on the last play the game. What it boiled
down to, though, was, and it's the undercovered element of
this great game. It was a battle of Bavarian kickers.
It was Ouve von Shaman.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
One of the history of the NFL.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Bested by Rolf Banershka right about that two German fellas
Settlin ar Hatch. It was eight side. It was a
different time. You had to go international. If you wanted
to find. I mean, think about the number of international
kickers we had back then that worst I shouldn't say stars,
but were the kickers of their time. That's right. At
(12:28):
some point we transitioned into going American maid we we
refused to. I'm not as much. I assume we still
have some guys from overseas.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Theossi punters, for sure. Yeah, the guy at uh have
you seen the guy at Hawaii? The Japanese guy. Oh no,
the Tokyo tow Oh no, Yeah, he's uh he is.
Petros brought it up yesterday I think, or maybe the
day he brought up the day before. He is like
twenty two for twenty two one extra points, or like
(12:59):
thirty three for thirty three on extra points, in like
twenty two for twenty two on field goals. The Tokyo
to Kenzi Matsuzawa. There we go, Kenzai Matsuzawa.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
This may be counterintuitive, but I sincerely advocate the kickers
are too good now, and they're warping the point of
the sport or the strategies that coaches want to employ
and that we desire as fans. The swinging of legs
shouldn't settle so many games, especially from sixty yards away.
I say we ban side side winding kickers legitimately and
(13:30):
go to head on kickers. Paul Hornig, the legend the
Golden Boy in the early sixties. In his last year
as the Packers plays kicker, along with being there to
do it all offensive star made one third of his
field goal attempts. Wouldn't there be a better game? Wouldn't
there be a more fun thing for it? Not to
be guaranteed every time you get over the fifty yard
(13:51):
line to assume, well, we have three points bank now,
now we just can we score a touchdown?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Many people say no kickers, Okay, let's get rid of
them all.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
That's that's a little severe for me. Head on though,
can be fat, Yeah, can have half a foot like
Tom Dempsey did.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
How do you think you kicked that sixty three yard
or whatever?
Speaker 3 (14:09):
The hell? He had a two iron in his shoe.
Let we celebrate it, by the way.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
To Tokyo to learn to kick field goals and extra
points from YouTube. Look at that, Wow, Tokyo to I
just hope for my kids. Yet we said a word
number song. We'll do that in our next segment and
we'll give away that gift card right when we come back,
Like right when we come back, Chris, we'll give away
(14:33):
that gift card. That's next.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
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
the iHeartRadio ap using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Road Trip, all summer with LA Sports. All right, right now,
we told you we wouldn't make you wait long eight
six six nine eight seven two five seventy. That last
one hundred dollars gift card to the NFL Shop, and
you are our final finalist to win the grand prize,
two nights at Resorts World, four tickets to Raiders v.
(15:15):
Broncos at Allegiance Stadium on December seventh. We'll give that
away in about a half hour. But right now, caller
ten eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy,
our final finalist for the NFL Shop gift card and
the qualifier for the grand prize. Drawing there now, we
(15:35):
have to keep this on the up and up.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
This can't be We can't subjectively choose this person. This
has game show type rules. It legal is involved.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Right, and it's and it's from the NFL, so it's
like NFL rules as well. So we have to get
our winner here and then this winner, along with the
other four winners, are sent upstairs where we are not welcome.
We are you know, we we are down here in
the slums of the radio world.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Got the ag Pass Kick competition or what.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
It's just kind of like legals gotta take the five
finalists and apparently they have some sort of hopper up there,
you know. I don't know if it's a bingo wheel
or what, but they're the ones that have to select
the grand prize.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
I'd like to select it based on how they're going
to spend the loot. I'd like to vet these people.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Well, the loot is just a prize, like there's oh,
you mean one hundred dollars one hundred dollars, Well that
we choose. Kate's just got who's our winner, Kates? The
winner was Edgar Fernandez from the nine to four nine. Yeah, Edgar,
I hope you're a real Edgar. That's what I'm hoping. So,
Edgar Fernandez is our final finalist. Kate's has now packaged
(16:42):
our five winners together. He will take it upstairs, hand
deliver it in a briefcase that's locked and being monitored
by Ernst and Young.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
And then I was gonna say, is David Stern gonna
be digging around in a bag right looking for a
chili slip of papers?
Speaker 2 (16:58):
My idea was is a former programmer, you know, I
was always sort of I'm always very hyper focused on contesting,
and how can we maximize our listen listenership for people
that just want to win prizes, you know, and increase
people that are exposed to the Petros and Money Show.
And Dave damashek where can they hear you now?
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Dave Football, American Football? Find your podcast? Stay it on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
YouTube, so they're turned on to you. And and maybe
they weren't aware of you and all of you know,
the things that you've observed over your many years on
this earth of ours, this this big blue marble, Like
what is why is Miyagi you know, shirking his maintenance
duties to trim some mini trees while the pool at
the apartment complex falls in?
Speaker 3 (17:40):
It doesn't just survive live, but do it on your
own time? Man, You're getting paid to clean the pool
exactly right?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
It cost me rent charge extra thirty bucks a month
back then I've got a working pool. But point being,
I wanted to give it away. And then ten minutes
in that same segment later do the grand prize drawing, like, hey,
not only are you gonna win that final finalist, but
bang right away, here's your grand prize. That's how we
maximize our listenership. In Kates is like, I can't do it,
(18:08):
can't do it. It's like, why can't we do it?
What's the problem?
Speaker 3 (18:10):
I can't do it?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
So got to send it upstairs the legal it's the NFL,
the shields in vaults. I saw a quizz show. Yeah,
so there you go. Yeah, we don't want a quizz show.
Wildly underrated film, by the way, I.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Believe pretty good, maybe the best year for movies in
the history of people.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
One of Redford's many overlooked triumphs. Quiz Show, River runs
through It also fantastic.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
A wonderful movie, and a great sad end and a
great novel as well, even as they always say the
novel is a little bit better than the picture, and
the picture is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I don't know why I always felt the need to
do it, but I always do, and I can't help
myself now. I just can't hold my tongue. I always
say Redford fantastic, but he's no Paul Newman. I just can't.
I don't know why I feel the need to pit
those two against each other. They're both brilliant, they're both sensational.
But for whatever reason, I feel like too many people
hold Redford.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Here's my outing well, because he's a handsome devil like
Brad Pitt. People almost the looks. I'm not gonna get
in the complaining right now, but you know I've been
there very often. You know, no matter what you got
going on the inside, you know how much how much
information you look the brain up with, and no matter
how big the heart is very hard just look at
(19:23):
the service. Yeah, I have a mirror. I see what
you see. Sure it's terrific, it's it's ruggedly handsome. But
there's something underneath that matters too. That's me. But anyway,
hot take for you see, if you agree with this,
we tend to lie in eyes, we tend to genuflect to.
I mean the same thing in sports, you know Bill
Russell as the greatest basketball player of all time, or
would be would be impossibly, he would defect. He would
(19:45):
take down Shack. No, he wouldn't. He's six foot nine.
He would He would be out moded. He would have
no place in today, much like Wayne Gretzky might not
have much of a role in today's NHL or at
least even No that well, that's inaccurate. Mary Olemieu would
die the NHL. He would laugh, but he would. He
would not. Wayne Gretzky would not be he would be
(20:05):
an all star. He would not be the Wayne Gretzky,
you know. Now, that's all you know. These are things
So Redford or whoever Clark Gable or whoever you want
to sing songs about from decade Eryl Flynn, Fine, you
know who maybe the greatest movie star of all time?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Don't say Tom Cruise.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Tom Cruise. That's exactly who I was gonna say.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Now, I guess now it's all coming. Everybody's doing the
Tom Cruise thing. Now, what do you mean, everybody's doing well,
he just got the honorary Oscar and so all of
these long form pieces about Tom Cruise is our last
great superstar? Is our movie star? You know, a true
shining star on the hill, someone who puts together.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Did you see the Last Mission? Impossible?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
I enjoyed it. It was like part seven of a
seven part series. Yet I took my daughter and she
was like, what's going on? I was like, oh yeah,
I forgot. You got to see the three prior to understand.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
All right, listen to Daniel day Lewis, who may or
may not actually act since he since he abused himself
in the lifestyle of the character, so then he becomes
that guy. He's great, But would he launch himself on
a on a motorcycle going one hundred miles an hour
off of a cliff.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
He would not take the role, but he hang.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Himself off of a bye plane. Literally.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Daniel day Lewis doesn't want to be Ethan Hunt. He
wants to be a cripple that has to write with
his foot.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
But that's but that's what Cruse does, didn't you didn't
you see Jerry Maguire did rain Mans Magnolia. I'm not
urging he's splendid in these pictures.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
I prefer I prefer to to eat at a different restaurant.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
All right, well, I'll go that was all Australia and DiCaprio.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Don't you ever say a bad word about DiCaprio.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
You won't hear it from me. Once upon a time
in Hollywood alone?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Is at alone?
Speaker 3 (21:52):
What's eating Gilbert Grave?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Come on right now?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
You ever?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Well?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Not okay?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Personally?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I like basketball diaries.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Boy, you guys are getting suddenly you're you're it's the
guys behind the glass getting way back.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
And we start talking about the movies and everyone, you know,
everyone can kind of weigh in because there's no wrong
answer our.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
DiCaprio and Pitt this generation's Newman and Redford, who we
must compare for the for the remainder of their respective lives.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Sure, did the two of them ever act in a
movie together?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
I just said, once upon a time in Hollywood?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (22:30):
I know they did.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
But going back to uh, Redford and Newman.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
No, they never were in a movie together. Is that
a real question? Tim Kates? No, it's not.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Now I'm confused.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Now now you know what? Now Kate's has piqued my interest?
Does he not know?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
But cas, is there any other that you could name
and don't without the benefit of a laptop in front
of you the sting Yes, oh there.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
You one of the great instrumentals that you could live.
There are very few instrumentals that you can throw on
and be like, I'm going to listen to this until
it's conclusion, and the Sting is one of those. The
entertainer is the name of the song.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
It's all this all is a straw man conversation because
the correct answer, Harrison Ford, he goes, We've talked about this.
The window you're talking about streak is unbeaten for him,
I I don't have it in the right chronology. It
goes something like Empire strikes back, Raiders is the last
(23:34):
Dark Blade Runner, Return of the Jedi, then another.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Doctor Jones at film.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
He's great in.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
It, but it's not a great film. I'll give you Raiders,
and I'll give.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
You it's iconic. It wraps up this star It's not
terrible there it actually is. If you go back and
watch it, it's hard to watch. Like you can watch
Star Wars and you could watch Empire, but we Walks
are not great. It's not you know, the Java stuff
is great. It starts up, but then like once it
gets to the middle, it's like, oh this thing is
(24:09):
it's it's not doing what it's supposed to do here.
This is sort of the beginning of the end of
the Star Wars franchise that we're watching. I don't I'm
not gonna argue too hard on that one. But again,
Harrison Ford, the human being, volunteered the best idea that
was rejected, which was, if you want to add some
gravity to this, to this wrap up of the trilogy,
(24:29):
kill Han solo. That would have been a great move.
Star Wars, Raiders, Blade Runner, Jedi. Oh and I should
have said Empire, not Star Wars. So Empire Raiders, Blade Runner, Jedi,
Temple of Doom. And then how about these two back
to back, Witness and Mosquito Coast. I mean, John Book
(24:52):
is a great sho.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
John Book is one of the great characters. Witness is
one of the most wildly.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
It makes his love on an Amish woman right inside
like great. It doesn't even take him long to wear
her down. She just swoons for him. You call a
guy like that rolling through these parts. If I were
an Amish woman, I would do the exact same thing
she did. Who's gonna know, true, right, she's not gonna
tweet about it. Came absolutely But Book is a great character,
(25:20):
of course. But if you're an actor, you're immediately in
the top ten if you play doctor Indiana Jones or
Han solo or Rick Deckard in Blade Runner. He did
all three in the span of like five years. Or
Ryan Oh my, I don't know if I can pick
(25:41):
myself off the floor. He's the greatest movie star of
all time.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
It's pretty hard to beat.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Never won an Oscar or anything. No, No, should have
President of the United States. Right, don't you come here
bark at me like some junkyard dog. Only you know
aim as Kyle Shanahan has had nothing but great quarterbacks
except for Trey Lance. Everybody's got their one. Unfortunately, Harrison
(26:07):
Ford had regarding Henry not great. Gets shot in the head,
turns dippy but more lovely. But but but his heart grows,
he loses.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I don't think I ever saw it.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
He loses his intellect, but he makes up for it
and how with a big, big heart. Weird, weird message.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Interesting. I don't think I ever saw it. And it
seems like a film that would be on cable all
the time. Go do yourself a favor tonight. Well, I
guess you're gonna go see your daughter playing.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Good for you. I'm jealous of you. But when you
have some free time. You're the Chargers are on a
bye this weekend. Do yourself a favor if you haven't
seen it. Rogue one, that's one of the three. That's
one of the three best of the Star.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Wars because it's not like a Star Wars film everybody dies.
It's great, like it's marvelous. Spoilerly, it's ten years old.
Not that big of a da.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Well, we already knew that. Canby tells it to Skywalker
and you know.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
How they got it exactly. Ronnie still got to do
a song of the day, still got to do Yeah
you do. Ronnie still got to do some NFL picks.
I did so much sports prep and Shek comes in
and this is what happens, and it's wonderful. We'll be
back Ronnie, Song of the Day, the Grand Prize, drawing
all those great things as Shek is in for p
here on a five seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Hello, PMS listener, Did you know Am five seventy LA
Sports has a wide range of LA Sports podcasts. There's
Rogan and Rodney.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
That one is my favorite.

Record, Clipper Talk, without a musk.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Follow us all and many more.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Just go to Am five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
All right, quick one here, quick one here. I got
to get my picks in because you know so, I mean,
come on, dude, that long last Let's pick some prof
real quick, real quick. I'll do uh. I'll do number
the day here, really number the day one in zero
after taking the Texans. Took the Texans in the five
(28:17):
and a half last night, So thank you Houston forgetting
me that I am going to take because I went
oh for four last week. So I got some scar
tissue and I'm upset with some teams. I want to
take the Chiefs, but they did me dirty last week,
so I'm gonna take the hook. The hook's bringing me back.
I'm going to take the Colts and the three and
a half. I lost two games on the hook last week,
(28:37):
so I want.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
You better not lose straight up or they may really
be done.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I like I like that defensive indie. I just feel
like Amo's just starting to get things right. Sauce is healthy.
It's another week of getting settled and figuring it out.
So you're predicting that the Chiefs. You're trying to thread win.
I'm gonna thread the needle here. I think the Chiefs win,
but I think it's a tight, tight game. I hope
they lose. You know, my hope as a Charger guy
(29:04):
is that they lose. I would love them to be
five and six.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Imagine if they're not one of the seven teams in
the tournament from the AFC side, it'd be wild.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
But it's a very real possibility. There's a chance the
tiebreakers that they need to win this or.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Thee that people aren't talking about that much is with
Joe Burrow back with the Bengals. If since he knocks
off the Ravens, there's it's plausible that the Ravens are
gonna miss it too.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the Rams minus seven. I'm gonna
take the Jags and lay the three in Arizona. And
to honor you, Dave, I'm gonna take the Steelers in
the two and a half points. I think that defense
can rattle Caleb CAUs some turnovers, some short field run
the ball, just defensively get that win, like a fifteen
(29:47):
to ten kind of thing or something like that.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Oh I'm bullish. Or if I didn't have a rooting interest,
I would be bullish on the Bears taking care of business.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
I think that's the reverse jinkson you.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Well, Burger loses this one drops the six and five
day and going to the playoffs. But then again, like
I just said about the Ravens, you may wind up
with the AFC North being champiing nine and eight.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Do you have a word of the day?
Speaker 3 (30:12):
I do, and it's about his word.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
The word of the day.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
One of the stars of the aforementioned Kansas City Chiefs.
They're tight end. He's been in the news and not
just about football the last couple of years.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
I noticed.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Yeah, Travis Kelcey. He says he's still undecided on his
football future. The thirty six year old is in the
last year of his contract. He reiterated the day that
he doesn't know if he's going to retire or come
back for what would be his fourteenth season in twenty six.
He plans to decide on whether to return to the
Chiefs by early March, before free agency.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Oh thanks for considering us.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
I mean, yeah, you're really jamming up your team a
little bit to carry it that long. And by the way,
I feel like he is the Chief's touchdown leader on
pace for his eighth season with over one thousand yards.
Pretty good season for a thirty six year old man.
He's no longer the straw that stirs the drink in
that offense, though he's gonna retire right now.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
I assume so.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I mean I patched those Taylor Swift checks. If that's
Betta ball, I will bet that he hangs it up.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
This is the Song of the Day.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is the title of today's Song of the
Day from singer, musician and actor from the nineteen fifties
and sixties, Guy Mitchell, specifically selected for today to welcome
in a man from the great state of Pennsylvania with
a wealth of NFL knowledge that he's willing to share
(31:43):
who loves a good close up. It's our friend in
proud pittsburgher Dave Damashek, who's been kind enough to lend
his time to fill in for Petros on This frog
Man Friday, where the third and final four hour edition
of Great Sports Talk this Week is well underway. As
we conclude the radio program and send you off to
(32:03):

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Thank you, Ronnie.
Speaker 5 (32:08):
Got a little story action for you, a little top
story of today. In the next segment, we'll also have
Jovann Boja talking about Andrew Friedman overseeing the UH or
at least becoming an advisor to the front office of
the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Yes, KapS, he's got our grand prize winner announcement.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
