miname of football last night, Lions Kick Around the Ravens

Football as well, Seahawks Cardinals. But Gaalpin Motors broadcast booth
Tonight six forty pm. Dodgers diamond Backs show. Hey o'tani
on the mound and that means the Dodgers Magic number

(01:16):
will be repeated here until there is no more magic
number to win the NL West. It is three. That
is a combination of Dodger wins versus Padre losses. So
you have those two together, you get to three, and
they will clinch the West, and they will clinch the
three seed and face one of three teams still in
the mix, Arizona, Cincinnati, or the New York Mets. That

(01:40):
is what is at stake over the next six games,
three in Arizona followed by three in Seattle to finish
up the weekend. And we are your home of the
World Series champion Dodgers, so that coverage will certainly be
center stage.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yes in this Wild Wild West update, brought to you
by our friends at wild Fork, where high quality meets
low prices. For the wild Fork Store near you, go
to wild Forkfoods dot com. And we are hopeful, hopeful
music at noon, hopeful music at new Hopeful.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
The Dodger fans.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
I believe we'll see a Dodger celebration of the clenching
of the division in the desert, which means the eternal
question of will the Dodgers swim in the Diamondbacks pool?
In the pool will the Diamondbacks deploy. Puigue isn't there,
but he could. Will the Diamondbacks deploy local law enforcement,

(02:41):
maybe even the Feds to stop the Dodgers from swimming
in said pool in celebration.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
How does that set up?

Speaker 1 (02:52):
If the Dodgers end up facing the Snakes face to
face with that Diamondback later in the postseason.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
That's potential. That is a potential possibility. Game back right now,
but it could be Diamondbacks Dodgers in the wild Card
Round at Dodger Stadium for three and a week from tonight.
Diamondbacks beat the snot out of me. Dodgers the last
time they were here.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
We made fun of them and we acted all hard
and then we were humiliated by the Diamondbacks, by the
young angry Diamonds. So it will be an interesting night
tonight at baseball his back. I kept waiting for like
six o'clock tomorrow last night to put on the pregame

(03:38):
show or the game, not realizing, deep down realizing that
there would be no Dodger game now, Matt, speaking of
the d bat, do we have anyone fat enough on
the team to pull the young Jin Reu needs help
getting over the fence into the pool. Now, I remember
that was one of your sticking points that hung jin
Reu because of your spry, skinny body. You loved to point.

(04:00):
Now people that are a little you know, a little
big around the the a little big around the waist.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Or it was just an athlete that needed help get
those fence sitting, I mean, led to a led to
a rather commical is there anybody like we got to
help this guy climb the fence? Is there anybody like
that on the d Backs? Excuse me, the Dodgers team
that's not going to be able to get over the fence.
I'm thinking, like I'm just trying to think of the bullpen.
Maybe someone we're not thinking about, Kate type Like Will

(04:31):
Klein's a pretty big dude, I think, right he looks,
he looks like he's a giant.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
You're thinking, you don't think a guy can get a
leg over that thing.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
That's what I mean. He's only twenty five, so even
though he's probably I would guess that's probably the biggest
guy on the team, because I mean, he looks, but
I'm guessing he can get it. It's a pretty fit
Dodgers team. There's nobody that you know, it'd be will
climb right, and you know, you act like it was
like a cartoon where there was like five people trying
to push reuse ass over the thing. I mean it

(05:06):
was I mean, what what what? What did you see?
What am I missing? I mean there was one guy
who had his hands cupped like a stir of trying
to make me out to be a bad guy. You
a hole. They had three guys to get him over
the fence. I mean it was a real to do.
It's like watching a cheerleading stuntley in a bass. He
had the two sides, you know, they were really trying

(05:27):
to get them up. Yeah, one to go.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Well, we usually like to look into the Dodger opponent,
especially if they have a little bit of a lack
of identity, like the Curly w Nationals, and they don't
have much of an identity the Curly Dubs. So we
found the national song and played it a couple of times.

(05:56):
We found a couple national songs and played them a
couple of times over the years, and I think it's
helped at least our show have a little bit more
of a rapport with the Nats, the Curly Dubs.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
And Curly Dubs song, It didn't really have a lot
of traction. This is it?

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah, yeah, it's like a Go Gos theme.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
So how is this working with us today?

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Near Petermania Avenue is the land of the curly w.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
So kimmed down the nasal pod, Go go.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
All right, So there was that, and I feel like,
you know, that helped raise them up in our minds.
And this is a big series coming up between the
Dodgers and the Diamondbacks and what is the Diamondbacks identity?
Some weird purple uh uniform and that what was that
guy's name, Gonzo that in the two thousand and one World.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Series and Matt Williams even though he was a giant
kind of check and.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
I guess the fight with Steve Sachs and Mark McGuire
and all that back in the indies. Yeah, So to
answer your question, Matt, what does it all mean? Let's
listen to Well, this is a shorter version and it's
got like a snake rattle in it.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
But this is is.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Uh, this is what they've done with the with the
d Backs fanfare in the City of Phoenix.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
There is.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
I heard it, Yes, there is, there is? All right,
So that's here now that place that play in the stadium,
because that to me doesn't seem you know, the Go
Go lid White. No, that's a full song, right like
that can live on YouTube. Well that one that sounds
like a stadium. That one, Yeah, that's their fanfare moment.

(08:34):
So okay, one more time with that. It's like George
of the Jungle kind of there is.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
There is, there is, there is, So there's that.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
But then they do have a more phenomenal by the
way you like that one.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Uh, then they do have a more traditional kind of
like Jim Blossom style Arizona Diamondback song which has got
more of like a white guy rock theme.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
And here it's it is.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
A little longer, it's a little well, you know, madda
try to double up so people understand what I'm trying.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Hear. It is.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
All right, stop so summer the gang's all here. We
got baseball red hots and ice cold beer. So basically
you're describing, you know, you could be playing baseball in
Alaska's Horrible spider Man.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
This is horrible.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Now this has a lot more views than the currently
w Go Go song. Well, yeah, this one's a lot
more popular. Jack Matt three hour three.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
I mean, this guy.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Gets every baseball reference there is packed into this Jim
Blossom style.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Do you think do you think there are any couples
that have been married in Arizona that are big Diamondback
fans that have this play as their first dance.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
Like with the talking Baseball with his beautiful bride says

(11:29):
it's a fact, Jack, I back you back, we back
the d Backs.

Speaker 2 (11:36):
I got it because Jack academic.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Right, and then he said, Rymes, you had to have
the white hot spotlight. Yeah, you had to open up
your mouth.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Is that the whole Should we listen to it one
more time? I'm sorry, I you know, I thought you
liked it because it's more popular than the other one.
How did I find this? This is what the d
Backs people flock through. This is what brings the snakes
to the yard?

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Well, yeah, I know. The last time though the go
go was not officially by the net. That was the
fans problem. He found that one.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Okay, I found okay, and I know how to mind
the desert for for authentic fan songs that are approved
by the franchise. Let's hear it again, the fact Jack
d Backs, we back you back the d Backs.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
Bring up and three down?

Speaker 2 (12:55):
Okay, sounds like an AI song that you just put in, like,
you know, a song about describing baseball.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
That is uncool. You know, these guys put their blood,
sweat and tears into that song.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
Who are these guys, by the way, the Jim Blossoms.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
It doesn't say who they are, but they're playing outside
the stadium, flowers. There's pictures of them playing outside the stadium.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
So they are approved. They are totally approved. I back
you back, we back the d Backs. And that's a fact.
Jack doesn't the first one. Those sound like you're like
a Chiefs games Florida State game, like you have the
drum go on. The first one sounds like a good
in stadium right that everyone can get behind. I could
tell Marte single, here we go eight Danny get old
rally going. You know what that sucks to? You know what?

(14:07):
It's not cool. The rattle doesn't scare you if you're
a fan and all of a sudden they got back
to back end like scared his hell, man, you'd be
peeing your paints, man face to face with that rattler.
Let me get the other. I think the other one
starting to grow on me.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
Well, then you don't get to say that down.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
I mean, you know some songs are it takes a second,
you know, it's not. It's not one listens you with
your trained to hear choler, get the.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Out.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
That is good. That's pretty good, man, Hey Serrie, make
me a generic baseball song with a reference.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
The only is that their Downtown. That's all they had.
That wasn't a generic. That couldn't have worked for every
d backs and downtown.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
That's good. But it's a good play on the name.
You know, the we back, you back, I back. It's
a fact Jack you back, I back, we back? Does
he say d backs? Is that what it closes with.
That's pretty good. Pretty good for the gin blossoms.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
So refreshments wherever the hell they are, keep your eye out,
especially the Dodgers can't clinch tonight. But what you can
do is see the dent on the outfield wall that
was less.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Apparently by the two hundred and seventy pound young gin
reu that pork.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
You know on our show, you would think that guy
is still suspended there. It took a why like that
guy that died of construction, guy that died in that
building in New Orleans and they had to just leave
his body in the buildings.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
All right, then we can do. It's not like he's
still there. Poor guy. He went on the pitch. Oh,
here we go. I found him. Pet It is Roger
Klein and the Peacemakers. Okay, and apparently they do some
white guy reggae as well.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
What is that about the Phoenix coyotes when.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
They were they could be? It says they have they
run Circus Mexicus every year. Uh so, there you go.
Wait to go, Roger Kline and the Peacemakers.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
We are very pleased to present the game tonight on
am FI seventy LA Sports. Tim Kates will have Marongo
Casino Dodgers on deck. We'll have David Vassa on an hour,
second to last hour. We're on all the way until
five thirty and Joe hail Tony's pitching to Night and

(17:15):
the Deal and the guy he's pitching against brand.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
Now differently though, people though be up a A DT.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
I believe his name is pronounced fought. I don't know,
but you don't. I mean you would never I don't
know you would never call anybody fat, I mean that
would you would never do that, right, Matt, like I would.
I wouldn't make you out to be that kind of guy. Brandon,
why would I do? Got a hay hold?

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Am I exactly right? His name is Brandon Fought. I
don't know. He's the guy who can get tricky.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
I mean as a guy who is very very uh
connected to the correct pronounce thee of things, Matt, you
the pulin surprise, the you know like things you like
pronounced correctly. I'm sure. I'm sure this guy's last name
is not fat.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
All right, Well, maybe I just have fat on the
brain for some reason.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
Next thing you're gonna tell me is that there's a
picture named Bastardo.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
I love Bestarto. He's him back in baseball desperately. Hey,
why did you sign Bastardo? Why not? Well because he
can't pitch. Yeah, but he's great. Yeah, he's got that
name on the back there. Let's go get Bestardo. It's
a fat jack. I back you back, we back the
diamond Backs. Now, I'm sorry if you already said this, Petros,

(18:43):
but that song, the Jim Blossom song. No, the guy
has a name, Okay, with your Klein and the Peacemakers. Yeah,
the Peacemakers, the Billy Joel of the Desert. This is
their I Love La. So as soon as they get
the final out in the ninth they this is the song.
They oh, is that right? Yeah? And then when they
won in twenty twenty one, when I went to the
World Series, they started playing this that one. Well, that

(19:05):
would make sense. Then why it's more popular than the
Go Go, Red, White and Blue because that wasn't.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
Well, that's not We don't know that for sure. None
of us has been there. None of us have been
in the National Stadium. They might play that's.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
You would think it would have more than twelve thousand.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Views, you might, but look what it has. Is there
an up and coming franchise almost got like a couple million, No,
sixty thousand. Another outlet's got this Arizona Diamondbacks winning song.
It's got twenty seven thousands.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Okay, okay, So it's not the sack. You said you
had them in the stadium, right, you said the videos
them playing in the stadium.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
It's not the same as Ice Cubes singing it was
a good day with Dave Roberts rubbing his ass on
his thigh.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
But what is yeah, right? Who else can touch that
Fat Joe. I don't think so fat.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
That is fat Joe's name though, your fat. You're right
about that one, Matt.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
I'd just get the name fat well, you know.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Tomorrow Dave's first question to h Clayton Kershaw during the
celebration when the Dodgers clinched the division.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Hey remember when hit should you? Oh god, it would
be great. I feel like we were the only show
that really focused on that too. By the way, everyone
else was just like, ohn'ts what a disgrace that they
jumped in the pool class list And we're like, hey,
you're talking about trying to get over the fence. Because

(20:39):
it was like a full national debate. Were the Dodgers Yeah,
I remember?

Speaker 1 (20:44):
And the PR guy that used to work here, Derek Hall, Yeah,
you know he had the rangers out there whatever, the
Arizona racebag and it was it was. It was a
long topic about how that poor fat guy couldn't get
over the fence over.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
A load of this guy that's a professional athlete. And
you got skinny Dee Gordon doing jackknives into the pool
pencil dive.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
But do we talk about Dee Gordon in the league?

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Still? No, we make fun of the fact guy.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, we'll be right back. We will have Tommy Telesco
who's working for Serious XM. So once you crack that
door and start doing some media, the hounds of the
Petros and money Sho're going to sniff you out and
root you out of your hovel and make you come
on and talk. The man that drafted Justin Herbert, who's

(21:39):
having a heck of a September, is going to join
us next. Tom Telasco, our old friend.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
We've made it even easier to take LA Sports with

Speaker 1 (21:53):
Make AM five to seventy or your favorite AM five
seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on the iHeart using
Apple CarPlay or Android Auto road Trip all summer with

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Dodgers Diamondbacks coming up tonight at six forty pm show
Hail Tani with the first pitch as the starter, Dodgers'
magic number to win the NL West is three, and
Dodger fans who could score big with flooring from Hernandez
Wholesale Flooring shop Hernandez Wholesale Flooring dot Net as no
sale beats, but.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
Once we saw him sniffing around the media like a
long nosed hound dog on Sirius XM. We knew that
he could not escape our talons in the world of
great sports.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Talk, great sports talk, so try I feel responsible for it.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Pee.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
You know, he cut his teeth here a weekly appearance
every Tuesday Taco Tortos with Tom Telesco, and now all
of a sudden, he's a host with Bob Pop over
there on NFL Radio on Sirius XM. My goodness, look
what we've created. Yeah, well, he did say I in
this first show. He had a soliloquy, much like Pete
Arbogast does at the beginning of every season, crediting Matt

(23:01):
Muney Smith, the voice of the Bolts, for this new
radio endeavor. Well, we'll find out.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Tom Tolesco joining us on your Southern California Toyota Dealers
celebrity hotline.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Tom, how are you. It's great to talk to you.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
I'm doing great, and yeah, I have to really thank
you guys for helping me transition into my second career
all those every Tuesday and come on talk with you guys,
learn the radio side of it. And then if you
would have told me last year this time, I'd be
doing serious x NFL Radio. When coaching high school football,
I said, you gotta be kidding me, But.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Right now I am.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Look at you, look at us. Those losers in San
Diego could never get you ready the way we did.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
You know what I'm saying, Tom exactly.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
Yeah, Hartman freaking loser. Anyway, when you watch a guy
like Herbert doing what he's doing, maturing, becoming the player
in the fourth quarter that he has to be to
be spoken about in the NFL elite quarterback world, I
guess where that's club that is so special? What goes
through your mind? How how proud are you of watching

(24:12):
the development of this player that not everybody wanted drafted.

Speaker 5 (24:17):
Well, I'm excited for him and I'm excited for his
success in the team's success. I mean, the three of
us have seen him play at a high level since
his rookie year. But obviously now that he's older and
he's more mature, his game is developed, continue to develop,
and the team around him it has continue to get
better and you're seeing the fruits of that right now.
And yeah, it couldn't be more fun. Like you know,

(24:39):
right now, I'm a fan. I'm a fan of the Chargers,
watching them play, and I've have so many connections there
and I want to see them do well. There's so
many players and non players, you know, staff wise, you
want to see that success with all that hard work
they put in. But watching watching justin play, it's appointment TV.
And he's got a really good team around him and
outstanding defense and has to be all of that. It

(25:00):
just can't be the quarterback. But just to see his
game mature and it's going to keep getting better. I mean,
there's no ceiling on where he can go. But he's
the guy you want pulling the trigger and it's fun
to watch.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
You have one of his favorite targets back Tom. I
think it was your first draft that you took Keenan Allen,
who was dealing with I think a little bit of
an injury there. It's why he slipped to that third round.
And I don't know why he was sitting on the
free agent market that long. Now that we're watching him
here through three weeks with three touchdowns and all these
third downs that he picked up. What is it about
about that game? About a guy that's thirty three. We

(25:33):
typically see that precipitous fall once you pass thirty at
that position, But what is it about how Keenan plays
that he is still as effective as he is and
as important as he is to this offense.

Speaker 5 (25:44):
He's such a special player, and it looks like he
was just sitting out just waiting for the call from
the Chargers. And you know, if I was dealing with
the Raiders, I probably would have been banging down his
door to come play with us in Las Vegas, but
just waiting for the call for you know, from the Chargers.
And now he's just a special player. I mean, his
instincts as a route runner are some of the best

(26:06):
I've ever seen. I mean, he just has an innate
ability to feel zones around him. He can feel and
sense when things are going to happen before they happen.
And then he has that physical ability. I mean, he's
bigger than people think him. He's almost six y threes
two hundred and fifteen two hundred and eighteen pounds. He
has separation quickness and great burst and first for the
great receivers that you know he's had, he had good

(26:29):
speed early in his career. He's not as fast as
he once was, but he's always been a premier route
runner and he's even if as you get older, you
still have those skills. It's just like the great pass rushers,
they still have those pass rushing technique and traits and
knowing the tackle they play against that if they do
lose a step, they can still be productive. So yeah,
I know with Keenan when we did his we did
his third contract, I think in twenty twenty, coming out

(26:51):
of COVID and money.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
You're right.

Speaker 5 (26:53):
I mean with receivers when they hit unfortunately, when they
hit twenty eight, twenty nine, many times, and it's not
every time, but many times, the production starts to dip
at that point, and then when he hit thirty starts
to come down a little bit more. You know, we
took a leap of faith with Keenan that he was
still going to produce at a high level, and he
rewarded us with three out of four years of one
hundred plus catches and he's still going. Shoot, he hit

(27:14):
seventy catches last year with the Bears, you know, in
an offense that just wasn't really moving the ball. So
he still has it in them. I think it's just great.
You've got you've got Q to get get you know,
to get the ball down the field on the deep balls.
You got McConkie and Keidan Allen that you know when
it's third and eight, third and ten, they'renn to separating,
get open. So there's just a lot of weapons there
for Justin.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
To Ughes, I know, it's just you know, it's just
one game. He was inactive for his first two. But Tom,
you did a bunch of work on the draft, so
I know you had a chance to watch Aronde Gadsden
the second there at Syracuse and kind of get an
eye on what he did there. Set a bunch of
records for them, comes in and I mean those just
weren't regular catches. That's the game winning drive that that
Justin Herbert goes to him, you know, on consecutive plays

(27:57):
and he delivers. Kind of what did you see from
Gadsden at Syracuse? And what is it about tight ends?
I mean we see third rounders, fourth rounders. You know
what Harold Fannon is doing in Cleveland. You know what
George Kittle and Travis Kelsey. These are guys that are
picked on Day two, if not even day three in
some cases, and they deliver.

Speaker 5 (28:16):
Yeah, Roddye Gatson that it was a great, great draft pick.
So he has just a lot of receiver skills to him.
And if you think about it, you know, I know
Gerald Everett, you know, gave some some good play when
he's there for a couple of years. But the but
the Chargers that haven't had like a real threat as
a receiver in that spots and Hunter, Henry and Gats
in preseason looked very good, but then the other day

(28:40):
like it just wasn't too big for him. He looked
very smooth, very catch the ball really easy, and he's
going to be a great weapon for them on third
down work in the middle of the field. And you know,
tight end is a tough position to scout coming out
of college. Not a lot of teams use a true
tight end where you're on the line of scrimmage. So
you're projecting a lot to this level. Most of the time,
they're in a two point stands out in this loot,
and you can get a pretty good feel for them

(29:01):
as route runners. You don't have a very good feel
for them as a blocker, and sometimes they start to
fall a little bit just because they're not great blockers.
And we used to fight that all the time, thinking, hey,
look if we can get them here and just give
them a point where they're willing just to hold on
die still death. As a blocker, that's gonna be good
enough because they have receiving skills. So let's not just
kill a tight end in college because he's not a

(29:22):
great blocker, because none of them are. They just haven't
done it very much. So I think Jatson can do
it enough at the Atlanta scrimmage just to kind of
hang on position, block hold this area, seal it. But
he can really get open as a pass catcher's and
the great in the red zone, and I'd expected him
to get a good amount of balls moving forward.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
That's right, go aheam.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
They're great.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
Tom Telasco, we love Tom Teleasco. It's great to hear
his voice again on a Tuesday on the Petros and
Money Show. We're always grateful to have his insight. The
GM of two AFC West teams, Tom Teleasco, are the
Chiefs still the team to be in that division?

Speaker 5 (30:03):
I don't know, they just haven't looked strong so far
this year. I mean defensively is where to me that
they're a little bit underrated, Like they've been a defensive
team the last couple of years. I think people forget
that because you just focus on the home so much.
The defense hasn't proved the last couple of weeks. The
offense is just having some problems right now. And when
you look at the division, how well the Charges are playing.

(30:24):
I think the Broncos are really good. There's Broncos are
super talented. That was a great game last week. Broncos
just situationally the last two weeks haven't played the way
Sean Payton teams usually played. But I think they'll get
that figured out. But I mean, I know this season
doesn't end right now, but to me, the Charge of
the Broncos, to me, the two teams that look like
they have the best talent of the division. And I

(30:46):
mean the Chiefs really at the same offense as last
year and they figured it out and they got to
the Super Bowl, so maybe they will again. But a
lot of the holes that had last year at both
offensive tackle spots, at running back, at consistent consistency at receiver,
it's the same issues right now. We'll see if they
can keep coming along, and they usually do and he
usually figures it out in the end. But this is
just a really really competitive division.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Tom, you were in Indianapolis. And I don't know if
you've seen this. I mean you're in the media now,
so you probably have. But so many people are drawing
a line between Justin Herbert and Peyton Manning and Peyton
his first five years and couldn't find that playoff win,
and people were questioning whether or not he could get
over that hump or is he just a stat filler?
And then year six he gets Tony Dungee. You guys

(31:29):
end up going to the AFC Championship Game. Of course
super Bowl would come a couple of years after that.
Do you see those parallels? Is there something too? You
know Herbert now with Harbaugh in his second year, in
his sixth season, Like you said, that maturity. What do
you remember from from you know, being with Peyton and
what happened in that year six that then continued for
the next seven eight years in a row.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
Yeah, I think there's certainly something you can tie parallels to.
And it's honestly something I've talked to Justin about before
I left, just to give him some pertive because just
as the perfectionists, he worked at extremely hard. He's very
hard on himself, and I was just trying to get
him some perspective of when I was with the Colts
and we had Peyton Manning, and you know, the first

(32:12):
couple of years, you know, we scored some points that
we didn't win enough game, we didn't win up games
in the playoffs, and Peyton didn't play that well in
the playoffs early on. And I'll be honest, at that point,
you know, there was that narrative that what you're kind
of saying is, yeah, Peyton's a great quarterback. What he's
good enough to win a Super Bowl with, but it
took us time to keep working on the roster, having
enough infrastructure, building a good enough team around them, and

(32:36):
obviously the results were the results. He's one of the
all time best and you know went to two Super
Bowls and won one. So it just takes time. It
doesn't always come on everybody's time frame of exactly when.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
It should happen, but there's.

Speaker 5 (32:46):
Certainly parallels there and all the great quarterbacks, they continue
to get better because they're always working at their game.
And that's what I've noticed with Justin. I mean, each
year it comes back a better player than the year before,
and Peate Manning was no different.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Corona del Mar where Tom Telesco is coaching. No coincidence
that they are for and oh, a real nutcutter against
Santa Barbara at Santa Barbara and they won by one point.
And then Charter Oak they took out by a touchdown
a couple of weeks ago. Big one against Tribuke at
Tribuco Hills on Friday night. Tom, We've always had no

(33:23):
Matt San Diego La the Raiders whatever. You've always been
synonymous with the Sea Kings of Corona del Mar.

Speaker 6 (33:31):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Tell us about the team and how much fun it
is to coach high school football. That's a fun level
of high school football down there. And what a great thing.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
Oh, it's been great.

Speaker 5 (33:41):
We're four and oh coming off the buy, got a
big game, got a big game this week, guess the
Mustangs of Tribuco Hills. And I'm just I'm just volunteer
to do whatever they need, you know, with you know,
opponent scottery ports, be a resource or practice and you know,
help some of the kids with some college recruiting. And
it's been great. I mean, I'm trying to fill avoid
I'm so used to being involved with football. It's all

(34:02):
my life. It's all that I know. It's all that
I've done. So you know, it gives me a couple
hours a day to go over to practice, and thank
god they allow me to help. They don't need my
help at all. They've they've had a great program there
for a long time. But it's really fun. It's the
great staff, it's fun with the high school kids, and
like I said, gives me somewhere to go and just
talk football, whether it's with their coaches where with the
high school kids. And could be more happy with it.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Oh, they need you, they need you bad, and it's
a great Listen. I heard Tom with Bob Papa driving
around one day when I think I was headed down south.
How often are you on, Tom? Where can the people
here you bringing this great this great football knowledge in
your your next career that likely will will boot us off.
You'll be doing afternoon drive here on a five to
seventy and short. He's got the personality.

Speaker 5 (34:45):
Well, we'll see. I'm just trying to fill the void.
But yeah, it's been it's been kind of random as
far as once or Choice a week on Channel eighty
eight on Series XM, and then been doing a little
bit of work on ESPN Radio and Fox Radio. So
just trying to fill the void. And you know, it's football.
It's all I can do. It's all you do is
talk football. If you guys ever need me, let me know.
I got plenty of time on my hands except between
three thirty and six each day.
