That's not the headline though. Uh, they host the Phoenix

we're haters? Well left everybody then if.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You have your.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Chargers are three and three, they host the Saints on
Sunday and so much. Jim harm Bissel spoke to the
media today was asked about the team and the way
they played on Monday night. He was also asked about
the team and whether or not they're throwing too much
and getting away from the run game.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Through six games, I'm back at it and uh, shoulder
to the grandstone. I thought there was on one hand
you could read off of the we'll be singing with
the choir of what it could have should us and reasonably. So,
I mean there was there was you know, that's that's logical,
that's rational. There is that that page you know right there.
(06:10):
Then there's the hymn where there was there was plays made, guys.
I mean I thought the offensive line, for example, Uh,
I thought they played good. There was there was maybe
a miss block here, miss blocked there. I thought the
quarterback played great. Josh Palmer. I thought he, uh had
a heck of a ball game, really encouraging will Disley,
(06:33):
you know, his his best game and you can just
see the field that he has for football and getting
yards after the catch and you know, things to build on. Yeah,
the quarterback played great.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Through six games here, not just focusing on Arizona, but
just the season.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Where do you feel like you guys are at that phase?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah, I mean sometimes sometimes the sometimes you go you
George Patton, you know, on the ground. Sometime it's uh,
Chuck Yeager, Amelia Earhart, you're going through the you're going
through the air.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
We were.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
We were very effective through the air in this ball game.
And you don't you really don't know what the next
the next will be, so you're you're striving to get
good at both, you know, as we as we as
we have been doing, are doing and and always will
be continuing to do both a strong run game and
I feel good. I feel like you've got a good
(07:29):
run game.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
As far as production.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
That wasn't as productive through the ground, more so more
through the air. Yes, it was as like assessing what
you guys.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
You're saying, you feel like you guys have.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
A better trying to trying to work on one thing
at a time all the time. Do I like a
run game?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (07:50):
I think we got the guys up front to have
a strong run game.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Do I think I had the backs and the tight ends,
uh that we that we need to have a really good,
great running game.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I do.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
That's how I feel.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
General Patton on the ground game, I can understand though
he died on the ground, Amelia Earhart in the air.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Well, at least he couched you with some Chuck Yeager, Yeah, yanger. Yeah,
so you get a little bit of that.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
I read your book, you beautiful son of a bitch.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Thank you, Chuck.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
With a propeller. Pretty cool. The Rams are two and four.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
They host Sam Darnold and his Big Head and the
Vikings tomorrow night at SOFI. Does anybody care about the
Rams in town this year?
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Yum, I'm.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Lone mon man.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
They're three and a half point road favorites, the Vikings.
My daughter was looking at a Viking game the other day.
She said, is that the horn frogs? I said, no,
it's a Viking.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
She said, oh, look at that.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
She said, it looks like the Pirates. I said, no,
it's a Viking. She says, what's the difference, Matt. There
is some college football news. USC is three and four,
one and four into Big Ten. They're going to host
Rutgers on Friday night. Sixteen dollars tickets if you got
the Blues because you can't get into the World Series
and you want a cheap ticket. Like Gail mckimm my
eighth grade teacher, this is your moment us. He's a
(09:34):
fourteen point home favorite at the coliseum.
Speaker 5 (09:37):
Hell, like, you give me a choice World Series Dodgers
Yankees Game one Dodger Stadium, or the first ever SC
Rutgers tilt with the Trojans. As a member of the
Big Ten, don't have to think long and hard about it.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Well, I'm just saying sixteen bucks versus sixteen thousand.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
There's that too. You know there's a financial component. Hey,
that's saying problem. That's the number one component. Well, it's
one of them.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
UCLA's two and five, two and four. I guess parking
will be better at SC which is a trip to say.
Ucla is terrible too. But they just came off a
win over Rutgers. They have a bye week, so don't
say anything about them on the bye week because if
they beat the bye week, it's gonna be bad. They
traveled Nebraska, maybe a winnable game in two weeks to
(10:21):
face the Huskers who just got blown out by Indiana.
Who plays Washington this week?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
I'm a winner.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Google it, Google me, signetty with this with this sunbelt,
I win Google me. Which was the quote that was
kind of a joke or a little bit of a
punchline to start the season now that Indiana is enjoying
their best football season ever in recent memory. And I'm
talking about like for eighty year olds, not so much
(10:51):
of a joke anymore.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Yeah, my mother's eighty one. It's the first time I've
ever heard the phrase. Have you seen what they're doing
down at Indiana, Maddie, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:02):

We are your home of the Doyers Live everywhere on

Speaker 7 (12:30):
So?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think we got ight.
Speaker 6 (12:32):
It's time for the top story of the day.
Speaker 5 (12:34):
Of well and a uh Peter Griffin, what really grinds
my gear style? A few things I'd like to clean
up here real quick, and a big thank you to
our friend Tom Hofarth for sending this to all of
us yesterday. ESPN headlines last night Bronni and Lebron make
History headline number one above the fold largest font Bronni
(12:58):
and Lebron make History below the Fernando Valenzuels passed away. Yeah,
one of the most important baseball players in MLB history
dies far too young and by the way, helped the
Dodgers win the nineteen eighty wine World Series over the Yankees.
And I don't know if you're aware of this, but
the Dodgers and Yankees happen to be in the World Series.
It starts on Friday. Everything kind of connecting. They're a
(13:18):
really great opportunity for the self proclaimed sports leader to
flex their muscles.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I was not surprised. Yeah, sadly, Yeah, I was not surprised.
And it was still that way this morning. Yeah, when
I looked at it was And that's their priority.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It's not opening.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
They're a national organization. In Fernando is a national story,
but very local and obviously very sensitive to the people
of the city of Los Angeles. His passing is a
real jolt. But at the same time, they have a
headquarters here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Man, they do.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
They broadcast a television program from there every single night.
As a matter of fact, you would have thought that
that would help encourage the coverage to be a little
bit more extensive than it was.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Shameful.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
It's like Fernando doesn't do anything for that, right. Braun
is their revenue and baseball is on Fox. Yeah, and
their day and night talk show crap about Lebron and
the king and the crowning himself and putting the crown
on Savannah.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
I can't just going, yeah, I'm kind of going to
do a two prong thing here based on those two
headlines I could. I can't do justice to what people
in town are right and there saying about Fernando, But
I will share this just a tiny sliver of a
national perspective as a kid growing up just outside of
Chicago and northwest Indiana, the you know, Cubs Sox territory.
(14:43):
The first World Series I remember was the year prior
nineteen eighty I had just turned seven. I had just
finished my first year a little league, so I was
super into baseball, and I remember vividly wanting the Royals
to win because of Dan Quizinberry and his submariner style.
That was kind of my first sort of national Hey,
I like somebody else beside the teams in town. But
(15:05):
in nineteen eighty one that passion had been increased greatly
because I had started collecting baseball cards. The Cubs were
absolute trash. This Week in Baseball was my favorite television
program every Saturday, and I would watch a baseball game
every Sunday, a national game. And I remember Fernando Mania
vividly because I had the Fernando Valezuela Mike Sosha Future
(15:29):
Stars baseball card along with my nineteen eighty Nolan Ryan
Angels card. They were two of my favorites, along with
a nineteen seventy eight Dale Murphy Future Stars card that
I had traded for. That was my top line of
my baseball card folder.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
So well, those would certainly be on the wall and
the Dodger studio for Kate's and Colin. I mean, that's
some quality cards there.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
No doubt. Now I do not remember the strike.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
I will confess I forgot that there was a strike
in the middle of the season and I didn't have
any baseball for like sixty days.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
But I do remember that time be.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Yeah, I don't remember. I was like, wow, that was
the strike here. I guess I don't remember that for
some reason. It was just I don't know, building ramps
and lighting things on fire back then, you know you're
always outside. But I do remember the Fall Classic, and
I remember rooting for the Dodgers, and I remember Fernando
pitching and I had to go back to see how
that game ended up, and when you dig into box scores,
it really does kind of give you a bit of
(16:24):
a jolt considering where the World Series in baseball is today.
Fernando won Game three for the Dodgers, five to four,
a complete game from Fernando. He gave up nine hits,
he gave up seven walks, six strikeouts, two home runs,
and they sent him back out there. Tommy sent him
back out there in the ninth inning a one hundred
(16:46):
and forty seven pitches. Fernando threw dig you out of
We didn't.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Dig you out of Pastoral, Mexico. And now to finish
this World Series game, dude, one.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Hundred and forty seven.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
They sent him back out there to face Jerry Mumpy,
who grounded out, Dave Winfield who flied out, and.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Loop and he's been a staple at the stadium Winfield
has throughout the playoffs.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
So incredible that that's how baseball used to be played.
And again, I'll finish with this, like I said, just
trying to share how far it's stretched. Even though it
was nothing in him in Indiana compared to what it
was here in Los Angeles. It is something that I
still have a pretty decent memory of because of baseball
cards and the fact that he was a superstar on
this week in Baseball every single Saturday, winning the Cy
(17:29):
Young and the Rekie of the Year. But just shove
all that to the side, the anecdotal nature of it,
and let's hear from a great who has some perspective,
someone that we have a history with and can help
share in a very benevolent nature and a selfless manner,
his memories of Fernando Mania. When he joined MLB Network
(17:53):
Radio this morning, and I happened to hear a conversation
with the magnanimous Ron saying, oh yeah. He was asked
by the hosts, what do you remember about Fernandomania? How
different was it? How different was it playing a game
at Dodger Stadium in nineteen eighty one when Fernando Mania
took over the city.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Okay, Well, like I said, we had, you know, an
influx of you know, Hispanic baseball fans, probably at a
greater degree than we'd had before. But if you remember,
we were setting attendance records before Fernando got there, and
we set a major league attendance record, being the first
team in Major League history to draw over three million.
(18:35):
And you know, the house that these guys are playing
today is the house that we built. We led the year,
we led the attendance yearly in baseball. Sometimes we did
it back to back, meaning on the road as well.
So the fact that Fernando was bringing more people to
the ballpark is reminiscent of the times that Copax and
(18:59):
Drysdale's as well.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Thank you. What was it like playing when Fernando took
them out? What was it like during Fernando Mania?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
He didn't make that attendant stuff happen. Maybe some more latinos,
but we were doing great before.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Okay, the stadium in which the Dodgers currently play is
the house that we built.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
The house these guys are playing today is the house
that we build.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Okay, KG, do we have the other clip too? Bitterness,
I'm a party at one. Let's get one more. Let's
get one more, then sensing, And that was the second
Fernando question that he answered that way. So credit to
the hosts for being the professionals that they're like, you
know what, this is embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Let's just move on.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
They move on to the Yankees Dodgers series and the
aura and the mystique of the Yankees, who had obviously
defeated them twice before nineteen eighty one, and what it
was like to be in you know, those la versus
New York showdowns in the Fall Classic, and again Ron
(20:04):
with some great perspective.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Well, I'm sure the networks are very pleased. You know,
you've got uh, you know, the you know, the two
best draws in baseball, two of the top traditions in
baseball history. And it certainly the Yankees are on top
with twenty seven titles, but the Dodgers are represented well
(20:27):
with all of our history and tradition that you know,
goes back to, you know, the time of Jackie Robinson,
and we had the longest running and most successful infield
in Major league history period, first thirty home run force
in the major league history in our in our era.
So yeah, we made a lot of contributions outside of
that success. So yeah, we're very proud of our contributions
(20:50):
to uh, to our history. Uh you know, and actually
the infield has a shrine in Cooperstown and we do
not have any of that at your stadium.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Okay, okay, quickly to Bronni last night, as we wrap
this up, with another piece of sound. Congratulations, lebron you
got what you wanted. I don't want to pick on Bronnie.
The kid didn't do anything wrong. It's all for It's
all for his dad's ego. It's all for his father.
Doesn't want to give this special thing to Bronnie. He
(21:24):
wants to give it to himself for his legacy. My
sperm made an NBA player, and I'm still good enough
to keep playing basketball. Bald, big jawed, super muscly. They
drug tested Anthony Edwards, KD and Steph at the Olympics.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Not me.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Check me out in my forties with m kid, celebrate me.
Would you ask me about this? So then I can
be little Hugh by saying, let's just let him grow
and let's let him go on his own timeline because
there's four hundred and fifty rookies and something something and
it takes a while, and let's not pressure him. And
(22:00):
two miss shots, one offensive rebound. Now you can center
her the G league, and let's hope Bronnie continues to
develop and maybe can work his way into becoming a
legitimate NBA player, hopefully after his father retires. Now, the
Lakers got the win they didn't need Bronni. They didn't
need much from connected need Bronny. I thought they would, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I know.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
It turns out they did not need the two minutes that, however,
would be the headline and the lead video in all
of the recaps. And Anthony Davis was great, and I
thought Charles and Shack did a great job trying to
stick to the script of the game. And Anthony Davis
and here's JJ Reddick's coaching debut and what looked different
and they got a big win. And Kenny felt the
(22:43):
need because he did not dare say it with those
two guys next to him. All he pointed out in
the Bronny conversation was that it's incredible that this guy
is still able to play and be a top five,
top ten player in the league and have his kid
play alongside him. That was kind of his position on
inside the NBA. But then he decides to post this
(23:04):
about Bronni.
Speaker 8 (23:06):
Anyone who who criticizes Brownie just doesn't know basketball or
doesn't follow basketball, because, first of all, I'm in Los Angeles.
I watched his high school career. He was a mcdonaldell American,
which means he's one of the top twenty prospects in basketball. Liar,
at his age, he played at USC and didn't play.
That is the problem I think for him right now
(23:27):
is the fact that he didn't play competitive basketball at
a high level last year and now you jump into
summer league and jump into the NBA. But his teammate,
Isaiah Collyer, the guy didn't have a great year at
USC in terms of his standards or what was the expectation.
He's drafted late in the first round, so it's like
(23:47):
he's a second round pick.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
What a second round pick means, ladies.
Speaker 8 (23:51):
And gentlemen, is that you're drafted on strictly potential and
your year is not your first year. It's the summer
after your first year, after you've got it. That's what
they draft on a most second round pick.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
So, my god, he deserves that. He was one of
the top five god help me.
Speaker 8 (24:09):
Point guards in his class out of high school.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
That's what he wasn't, right, and he deserves that.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
No, he doesn't.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
It's just the only thing is you know, unique, is
that he's playing with his dad.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
So there's so much bad in there. So what number
one Isaiah Collier was, you know, seventeen point five assist guy.
He's not a four per.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
He was one of the biggest prospects. Browny's not Everything
he said is not true. And here's the McDonald's all
American thing was a lie.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
He shouldn't have been in there, right.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
This is this thing that sucks, This is terrible. This
is the thing that's really that really is the bummer.
And this is the Lebron James effect. Because and this
is sort of a backhand compliment for Kenny, because I've
been around Kenny a lot. I've been going to modern
day games for the last two years because you know
that the good doctor son was the point guard, so
(25:01):
we go and watch him play. And Kenny's son has
been on that team. And Kenny's son is not a starter.
Kenny Son's not even a guaranteed minutes kid. Like he
did not get in a lot of games. And Kenny
would come to the games and he would sit courtside,
and he would cheer the team on, and he would
go up to the other kids and talk to them
after the game. He never said one word to coach
(25:22):
McKnight about why is my son not playing? Like freaking
Matt Lioner did with Cole on Twitter and getting him
to transfer the a hole that he was. Kenny never
did any of that. Could not have been a better
dad and supporter of the team as a whole, recognizing
that his son simply wasn't good enough to crack the rotation.
So for him to come on and say all this
(25:44):
bs about Bronnie knowing like he said, because he follows
high school basketball.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Again, that's the offensive part.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
That's what's so upsetting about it. Yes, that's why it's
so upsetting because he is right. He does watch Los
Angeles high school basketball, and he does it right, and
he should know that this is all bulls for Lebron's
freaking ego and that you should not contribute to.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
No, you're just not Matt, just a hater, your bed
of hatred. I don't know any anybody who knows better.
You just don't know basketball.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
No, we do.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
We live in LA and we know what a shame
it was and and is and is and will continue
to be.
Speaker 8 (26:25):
Anyone who kind of who criticizes BROWNI just doesn't know
basketball or doesn't follow basketball.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
And you know, you employ all these people who are
legitimate pundits and you make them say things.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
That are lies.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
You kill their credibility, you make everybody hate you more,
and you make it so people don't even want to
cover your team that are legitimate media people. It's terrible, disgusting,
terrible shame on all of you for shame to be
a LA defender. Moving forward, we're going to do the
Dead at South Bay. We're going to do the Dead
and a live guy Birthday of the Day coming up next.
(27:07):
Thank you for listening to the Petros and Money Show
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. It is Clippers opening
night against the Suns, and we will get you there.
Fully functional employee Adam with his bionic nose, who, however
we feel about the Clippers, does a fabulous job covering
(27:28):
the Clippers. So that is coming up next, but maybe
even more importantly, Dodgers Yankees World Series Game one on Friday.
All right, Matt, it is time for the Dead Guy
Birthday of the Day before we move on to Clipper programming.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
Yeah, we don't normally do uh figures and Titans of sports,
but since everyone knows the trophy, you'd probably get to
know its namesake if you weren't already up to speed
on who John John big Job, William Heisman Happy would
have been one hundred and fifty fifth there. John Heisman
(28:05):
Heisman was a drama student and he had a passion
for football. He went to Brown and then Penn because
at the University Pennsylvania they allowed him to do something
that Brown would not, and that is to play baseball
as well as football. He would go on to Penn
Law School, and instead of following his studies into the
(28:25):
legal profession, he got into coaching and Oberlin College hired
him and that is where he began to change the
sport of football. The Oberlin Review wrote, quote, mister Heisman
has entirely remade our football. He has taught us scientific
football using the double pass from tackle to halfback. He's
moved his quarterback to the safety position. On defense, He's
(28:48):
implemented a flying wedge formation with seven players. Ever, I
knew you'd love that as a v to protect the
ball carrier. In eighteen ninety two, Oberlin beat Ohio State twice.
He then went to Butchell College. Butchell, Buchtel, Booktel, Bucktell,
and uh Big.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
He was hired Big Bush. That's big additions there.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
He was hired as the baseball and football coach and uh,
there's a bit of a economic down term in the
late eighteen nineties, so he left to run a tomato
forget and then he was hired by Clemson in nineteen
hundred again to coach baseball and football. Won titles. In
nineteen hundred OT Towo and Op three was called the
Master of Southern Football. They beat Georgia Tech seventy three nothing,
(29:34):
and on the spot Georgia offered him a raise. Died
in thirty six final tallies Football one hundred and eighty six,
seventy and eighteen, Baseball one hundred, ninetynine, one hundred and
eight and seven baseball, nine and fourteen basketball. I should
say nine and fourteen. John Heisman.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
It was terrible basketball.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Terrible basketball.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
He was awful. He's a Darvin Ham. It's terrible, all right, Matt, Well,
you're not done performing. You do have South Korea news.
Lee Key, whoa from soul Woo forty three years old
today from bang Kook University, home of the Bears, did
his mandatory military service thirteen years back.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
I buried in h endorses their tires.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Oh yeah, for sure, only after you rip a ball
so hard off him he's going to get in a
car to catcheans. He married a non celebrity like Kershaw
on Jiju Island two years ago. Only family members were invited.
He loved stray dogs and donated to a shelter.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
I just went through this and I saw a couple
of titles, and I said, you know what, we gotta dick.
Speaker 5 (30:37):
I can't all right, I think I have the riff
in my head. I'll have to do it acapella. It'll
sound terrible.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Dang dang, d do we have anything cats? Anything, bom bomb?
Speaker 6 (30:45):
Can't you do a rock and roll riff for matt Cakes?
Speaker 7 (30:48):
No?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Come on, Tim, You're better than that, all right?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Title number one, spin kick, I don't Second title, he
was cool, well done. Third title and this is what
(31:14):
drew me to it. And we will figure this out. Kids,
don't you worry? Cool guys, hot ramen. Oh, that's like
dudes on dudes flower Grandpa Investigation Unit.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
That's horn. Yeah, that's a triple riff, live all right.

Doctor detective. Oh yeah, here is the Tim Kate's story.
Someone behind you. Yeah, bend over and we'll call in it.

Heisman for your Dead Guy Birthday other day.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
We'll be back on tomorrow for a full show.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Eighteen guys die in a season. We're gonna change something
around the guy.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Well, you know, I was in Iowa State and I
did the Jack Trice game and they're like, yeah, he
was killed because he's black, and that very well could
have been true. I was like, well, what about the
other seventeen guys at time? That healing with seventeen other
dudes did? What did those guys fifty nine critically injured?
Speaker 2 (32:33):
This guy was?
Speaker 6 (32:34):
This guy was an economics major. We don't like them numbers.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
I don't know, it's unfortunate, very you'd think they just
not have the sport after a little while. Did those
men die in Vain? No, we got the forward pass
off it perfect. Those men died so Dan Marino could
live exactly right. Thank you, everybody, have a great night.
Enjoy for action.

Ball and rightly write and grip strength. Grip strength.

The previous high price was Mark McGuire's record breaking seventieth
home run ball from the ninety eight season, which the
guy Todd McFarland, the Spawn creator, paid three million dollars
for in nineteen ninety nine four point three nine to two.
Rob Manfred said that the ball strike Challenge system using
the miners will be tested in spring trending next year.
(04:40):
Manfred added he expects some version of the automated strike
zones to be used in the big leagues in the
next four years. Matt, You're going to live to see
probably the robots.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
It's about time. It's about freaking time.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Clippers tip off the season to night. We've been discussing
it when they know at them Phoenix Suns, they break
in the new into a dome in Englewood. Fully functional employee.
Adham is going to join us and by us we
mean all of us at six o'clock the pregame show.
He's going to burn you every wave talking Clippers. The
Lakers are want to know at first place atop the division.
(05:16):
That's not the headline though. Uh, they host the Phoenix
Suns on Friday night at Crypto. What's the headline that
we're haters? Well left everybody then if.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You have your.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Chargers are three and three, they host the Saints on
Sunday and so much. Jim harm Bissel spoke to the
media today was asked about the team and the way
they played on Monday night. He was also asked about
the team and whether or not they're throwing too much
and getting away from the run game.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Through six games, I'm back at it and uh, shoulder
to the grandstone. I thought there was on one hand
you could read off of the we'll be singing with
the choir of what it could have should us and reasonably. So,
I mean there was there was you know, that's that's logical,
that's rational. There is that that page you know right there.
(06:10):
Then there's the hymn where there was there was plays made, guys.
I mean I thought the offensive line, for example, Uh,
I thought they played good. There was there was maybe
a miss block here, miss blocked there. I thought the
quarterback played great. Josh Palmer. I thought he, uh had
a heck of a ball game, really encouraging will Disley,
(06:33):
you know, his his best game and you can just
see the field that he has for football and getting
yards after the catch and you know, things to build on. Yeah,
the quarterback played great.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Through six games here, not just focusing on Arizona, but
just the season.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Where do you feel like you guys are at that phase?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah, I mean sometimes sometimes the sometimes you go you
George Patton, you know, on the ground. Sometime it's uh,
Chuck Yeager, Amelia Earhart, you're going through the you're going
through the air.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
We were.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
We were very effective through the air in this ball game.
And you don't you really don't know what the next
the next will be, so you're you're striving to get
good at both, you know, as we as we as
we have been doing, are doing and and always will
be continuing to do both a strong run game and
I feel good. I feel like you've got a good
(07:29):
run game.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
As far as production.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
That wasn't as productive through the ground, more so more
through the air. Yes, it was as like assessing what
you guys.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
You're saying, you feel like you guys have.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
A better trying to trying to work on one thing
at a time all the time. Do I like a
run game?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (07:50):
I think we got the guys up front to have
a strong run game.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Do I think I had the backs and the tight ends,
uh that we that we need to have a really good,
great running game.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I do.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
That's how I feel.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
General Patton on the ground game, I can understand though
he died on the ground, Amelia Earhart in the air.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Well, at least he couched you with some Chuck Yeager, Yeah, yanger. Yeah,
so you get a little bit of that.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
I read your book, you beautiful son of a bitch.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Thank you, Chuck.

With a propeller. Pretty cool. The Rams are two and four.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
They host Sam Darnold and his Big Head and the
Vikings tomorrow night at SOFI. Does anybody care about the
Rams in town this year?
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Yum, I'm.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Lone mon man.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
They're three and a half point road favorites, the Vikings.
My daughter was looking at a Viking game the other day.
She said, is that the horn frogs? I said, no,
it's a Viking.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
She said, oh, look at that.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
She said, it looks like the Pirates. I said, no,
it's a Viking. She says, what's the difference, Matt. There
is some college football news. USC is three and four,
one and four into Big Ten. They're going to host
Rutgers on Friday night. Sixteen dollars tickets if you got
the Blues because you can't get into the World Series
and you want a cheap ticket. Like Gail mckimm my
eighth grade teacher, this is your moment us. He's a
(09:34):
fourteen point home favorite at the coliseum.
Speaker 5 (09:37):
Hell, like, you give me a choice World Series Dodgers
Yankees Game one Dodger Stadium, or the first ever SC
Rutgers tilt with the Trojans. As a member of the
Big Ten, don't have to think long and hard about it.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Well, I'm just saying sixteen bucks versus sixteen thousand.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
There's that too. You know there's a financial component. Hey,
that's saying problem. That's the number one component. Well, it's
one of them.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
UCLA's two and five, two and four. I guess parking
will be better at SC which is a trip to say.
Ucla is terrible too. But they just came off a
win over Rutgers. They have a bye week, so don't
say anything about them on the bye week because if
they beat the bye week, it's gonna be bad. They
traveled Nebraska, maybe a winnable game in two weeks to
(10:21):
face the Huskers who just got blown out by Indiana.
Who plays Washington this week?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
I'm a winner.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Google it, Google me, signetty with this with this sunbelt,
I win Google me. Which was the quote that was
kind of a joke or a little bit of a
punchline to start the season now that Indiana is enjoying
their best football season ever in recent memory. And I'm
talking about like for eighty year olds, not so much
(10:51):
of a joke anymore.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Yeah, my mother's eighty one. It's the first time I've
ever heard the phrase. Have you seen what they're doing
down at Indiana, Maddie, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Mom, they're undefeated. Who would have guessed? I U football beautiful.
The only guys that aren't happy are the breaking away guys.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
We'll be back with more great sports talk, the top
story of the day, more on Indiana.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Max Doyers, thank you for listening.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Everybody.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
We are your home of the Doyers Live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app our ip Fernando one of the greatest
Los Angeles Dodgers of all time, if not the greatest,
for bridging the gap to the people. So God rest
his soul, Fernando. And if you love the Dodgers, you're
(11:46):
gonna want to listen to the World Series. World Series
coverage brought to you by Chef Merito seasonings and as
Matt pointed out, they got a seat.
Speaker 2 (11:54):

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Seat at the table with a placard. The seasoning partner

pair of tickets to the World Series tomorrow morning at
eight am.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Is that everything? Think?
Speaker 7 (12:30):
So?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think we got ight.
Speaker 6 (12:32):
It's time for the top story of the day.
Speaker 5 (12:34):
Of well and a uh Peter Griffin, what really grinds
my gear style? A few things I'd like to clean
up here real quick, and a big thank you to
our friend Tom Hofarth for sending this to all of
us yesterday. ESPN headlines last night Bronni and Lebron make
History headline number one above the fold largest font Bronni
(12:58):
and Lebron make History below the Fernando Valenzuels passed away. Yeah,
one of the most important baseball players in MLB history
dies far too young and by the way, helped the
Dodgers win the nineteen eighty wine World Series over the Yankees.
And I don't know if you're aware of this, but
the Dodgers and Yankees happen to be in the World Series.
It starts on Friday. Everything kind of connecting. They're a
(13:18):
really great opportunity for the self proclaimed sports leader to
flex their muscles.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I was not surprised. Yeah, sadly, Yeah, I was not surprised.
And it was still that way this morning. Yeah, when
I looked at it was And that's their priority.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It's not opening.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
They're a national organization. In Fernando is a national story,
but very local and obviously very sensitive to the people
of the city of Los Angeles. His passing is a
real jolt. But at the same time, they have a
headquarters here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Man, they do.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
They broadcast a television program from there every single night.
As a matter of fact, you would have thought that
that would help encourage the coverage to be a little
bit more extensive than it was.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Shameful.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
It's like Fernando doesn't do anything for that, right. Braun
is their revenue and baseball is on Fox. Yeah, and
their day and night talk show crap about Lebron and
the king and the crowning himself and putting the crown
on Savannah.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
I can't just going, yeah, I'm kind of going to
do a two prong thing here based on those two
headlines I could. I can't do justice to what people
in town are right and there saying about Fernando, But
I will share this just a tiny sliver of a
national perspective as a kid growing up just outside of
Chicago and northwest Indiana, the you know, Cubs Sox territory.
(14:43):
The first World Series I remember was the year prior
nineteen eighty I had just turned seven. I had just
finished my first year a little league, so I was
super into baseball, and I remember vividly wanting the Royals
to win because of Dan Quizinberry and his submariner style.
That was kind of my first sort of national Hey,
I like somebody else beside the teams in town. But
(15:05):
in nineteen eighty one that passion had been increased greatly
because I had started collecting baseball cards. The Cubs were
absolute trash. This Week in Baseball was my favorite television
program every Saturday, and I would watch a baseball game
every Sunday, a national game. And I remember Fernando Mania
vividly because I had the Fernando Valezuela Mike Sosha Future
(15:29):
Stars baseball card along with my nineteen eighty Nolan Ryan
Angels card. They were two of my favorites, along with
a nineteen seventy eight Dale Murphy Future Stars card that
I had traded for. That was my top line of
my baseball card folder.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
So well, those would certainly be on the wall and
the Dodger studio for Kate's and Colin. I mean, that's
some quality cards there.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
No doubt. Now I do not remember the strike.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
I will confess I forgot that there was a strike
in the middle of the season and I didn't have
any baseball for like sixty days.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
But I do remember that time be.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Yeah, I don't remember. I was like, wow, that was
the strike here. I guess I don't remember that for
some reason. It was just I don't know, building ramps
and lighting things on fire back then, you know you're
always outside. But I do remember the Fall Classic, and
I remember rooting for the Dodgers, and I remember Fernando
pitching and I had to go back to see how
that game ended up, and when you dig into box scores,
it really does kind of give you a bit of
(16:24):
a jolt considering where the World Series in baseball is today.
Fernando won Game three for the Dodgers, five to four,
a complete game from Fernando. He gave up nine hits,
he gave up seven walks, six strikeouts, two home runs,
and they sent him back out there. Tommy sent him
back out there in the ninth inning a one hundred
(16:46):
and forty seven pitches. Fernando threw dig you out of
We didn't.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Dig you out of Pastoral, Mexico. And now to finish
this World Series game, dude, one.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Hundred and forty seven.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
They sent him back out there to face Jerry Mumpy,
who grounded out, Dave Winfield who flied out, and.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Loop and he's been a staple at the stadium Winfield
has throughout the playoffs.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
So incredible that that's how baseball used to be played.
And again, I'll finish with this, like I said, just
trying to share how far it's stretched. Even though it
was nothing in him in Indiana compared to what it
was here in Los Angeles. It is something that I
still have a pretty decent memory of because of baseball
cards and the fact that he was a superstar on
this week in Baseball every single Saturday, winning the Cy
(17:29):
Young and the Rekie of the Year. But just shove
all that to the side, the anecdotal nature of it,
and let's hear from a great who has some perspective,
someone that we have a history with and can help
share in a very benevolent nature and a selfless manner,
his memories of Fernando Mania. When he joined MLB Network
(17:53):
Radio this morning, and I happened to hear a conversation
with the magnanimous Ron saying, oh yeah. He was asked
by the hosts, what do you remember about Fernandomania? How
different was it? How different was it playing a game
at Dodger Stadium in nineteen eighty one when Fernando Mania
took over the city.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Okay, Well, like I said, we had, you know, an
influx of you know, Hispanic baseball fans, probably at a
greater degree than we'd had before. But if you remember,
we were setting attendance records before Fernando got there, and
we set a major league attendance record, being the first
team in Major League history to draw over three million.
(18:35):
And you know, the house that these guys are playing
today is the house that we built. We led the year,
we led the attendance yearly in baseball. Sometimes we did
it back to back, meaning on the road as well.
So the fact that Fernando was bringing more people to
the ballpark is reminiscent of the times that Copax and
(18:59):
Drysdale's as well.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Thank you. What was it like playing when Fernando took
them out? What was it like during Fernando Mania?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
He didn't make that attendant stuff happen. Maybe some more latinos,
but we were doing great before.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Okay, the stadium in which the Dodgers currently play is
the house that we built.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
The house these guys are playing today is the house
that we build.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Okay, KG, do we have the other clip too? Bitterness,
I'm a party at one. Let's get one more. Let's
get one more, then sensing, And that was the second
Fernando question that he answered that way. So credit to
the hosts for being the professionals that they're like, you
know what, this is embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Let's just move on.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
They move on to the Yankees Dodgers series and the
aura and the mystique of the Yankees, who had obviously
defeated them twice before nineteen eighty one, and what it
was like to be in you know, those la versus
New York showdowns in the Fall Classic, and again Ron
(20:04):
with some great perspective.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Well, I'm sure the networks are very pleased. You know,
you've got uh, you know, the you know, the two
best draws in baseball, two of the top traditions in
baseball history. And it certainly the Yankees are on top
with twenty seven titles, but the Dodgers are represented well
(20:27):
with all of our history and tradition that you know,
goes back to, you know, the time of Jackie Robinson,
and we had the longest running and most successful infield
in Major league history period, first thirty home run force
in the major league history in our in our era.
So yeah, we made a lot of contributions outside of
that success. So yeah, we're very proud of our contributions
(20:50):
to uh, to our history. Uh you know, and actually
the infield has a shrine in Cooperstown and we do
not have any of that at your stadium.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Okay, okay, quickly to Bronni last night, as we wrap
this up, with another piece of sound. Congratulations, lebron you
got what you wanted. I don't want to pick on Bronnie.
The kid didn't do anything wrong. It's all for It's
all for his dad's ego. It's all for his father.
Doesn't want to give this special thing to Bronnie. He
(21:24):
wants to give it to himself for his legacy. My
sperm made an NBA player, and I'm still good enough
to keep playing basketball. Bald, big jawed, super muscly. They
drug tested Anthony Edwards, KD and Steph at the Olympics.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Not me.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Check me out in my forties with m kid, celebrate me.
Would you ask me about this? So then I can
be little Hugh by saying, let's just let him grow
and let's let him go on his own timeline because
there's four hundred and fifty rookies and something something and
it takes a while, and let's not pressure him. And
(22:00):
two miss shots, one offensive rebound. Now you can center
her the G league, and let's hope Bronnie continues to
develop and maybe can work his way into becoming a
legitimate NBA player, hopefully after his father retires. Now, the
Lakers got the win they didn't need Bronni. They didn't
need much from connected need Bronny. I thought they would, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I know.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
It turns out they did not need the two minutes that, however,
would be the headline and the lead video in all
of the recaps. And Anthony Davis was great, and I
thought Charles and Shack did a great job trying to
stick to the script of the game. And Anthony Davis
and here's JJ Reddick's coaching debut and what looked different
and they got a big win. And Kenny felt the
(22:43):
need because he did not dare say it with those
two guys next to him. All he pointed out in
the Bronny conversation was that it's incredible that this guy
is still able to play and be a top five,
top ten player in the league and have his kid
play alongside him. That was kind of his position on
inside the NBA. But then he decides to post this
(23:04):
about Bronni.
Speaker 8 (23:06):
Anyone who who criticizes Brownie just doesn't know basketball or
doesn't follow basketball, because, first of all, I'm in Los Angeles.
I watched his high school career. He was a mcdonaldell American,
which means he's one of the top twenty prospects in basketball. Liar,
at his age, he played at USC and didn't play.
That is the problem I think for him right now
(23:27):
is the fact that he didn't play competitive basketball at
a high level last year and now you jump into
summer league and jump into the NBA. But his teammate,
Isaiah Collyer, the guy didn't have a great year at
USC in terms of his standards or what was the expectation.
He's drafted late in the first round, so it's like
(23:47):
he's a second round pick.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
What a second round pick means, ladies.
Speaker 8 (23:51):
And gentlemen, is that you're drafted on strictly potential and
your year is not your first year. It's the summer
after your first year, after you've got it. That's what
they draft on a most second round pick.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
So, my god, he deserves that. He was one of
the top five god help me.
Speaker 8 (24:09):
Point guards in his class out of high school.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
That's what he wasn't, right, and he deserves that.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
No, he doesn't.
Speaker 6 (24:16):
It's just the only thing is you know, unique, is
that he's playing with his dad.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
So there's so much bad in there. So what number
one Isaiah Collier was, you know, seventeen point five assist guy.
He's not a four per.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
He was one of the biggest prospects. Browny's not Everything
he said is not true. And here's the McDonald's all
American thing was a lie.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
He shouldn't have been in there, right.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
This is this thing that sucks, This is terrible. This
is the thing that's really that really is the bummer.
And this is the Lebron James effect. Because and this
is sort of a backhand compliment for Kenny, because I've
been around Kenny a lot. I've been going to modern
day games for the last two years because you know
that the good doctor son was the point guard, so
(25:01):
we go and watch him play. And Kenny's son has
been on that team. And Kenny's son is not a starter.
Kenny Son's not even a guaranteed minutes kid. Like he
did not get in a lot of games. And Kenny
would come to the games and he would sit courtside,
and he would cheer the team on, and he would
go up to the other kids and talk to them
after the game. He never said one word to coach
(25:22):
McKnight about why is my son not playing? Like freaking
Matt Lioner did with Cole on Twitter and getting him
to transfer the a hole that he was. Kenny never
did any of that. Could not have been a better
dad and supporter of the team as a whole, recognizing
that his son simply wasn't good enough to crack the rotation.
So for him to come on and say all this
(25:44):
bs about Bronnie knowing like he said, because he follows
high school basketball.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Again, that's the offensive part.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
That's what's so upsetting about it. Yes, that's why it's
so upsetting because he is right. He does watch Los
Angeles high school basketball, and he does it right, and
he should know that this is all bulls for Lebron's
freaking ego and that you should not contribute to.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
No, you're just not Matt, just a hater, your bed
of hatred. I don't know any anybody who knows better.
You just don't know basketball.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
No, we do.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
We live in LA and we know what a shame
it was and and is and is and will continue
to be.
Speaker 8 (26:25):
Anyone who kind of who criticizes BROWNI just doesn't know
basketball or doesn't follow basketball.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
And you know, you employ all these people who are
legitimate pundits and you make them say things.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
That are lies.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
You kill their credibility, you make everybody hate you more,
and you make it so people don't even want to
cover your team that are legitimate media people. It's terrible, disgusting,
terrible shame on all of you for shame to be
a LA defender. Moving forward, we're going to do the
Dead at South Bay. We're going to do the Dead
and a live guy Birthday of the Day coming up next.
(27:07):
Thank you for listening to the Petros and Money Show
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. It is Clippers opening
night against the Suns, and we will get you there.
Fully functional employee Adam with his bionic nose, who, however
we feel about the Clippers, does a fabulous job covering
(27:28):
the Clippers. So that is coming up next, but maybe
even more importantly, Dodgers Yankees World Series Game one on Friday.
All right, Matt, it is time for the Dead Guy
Birthday of the Day before we move on to Clipper programming.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
Yeah, we don't normally do uh figures and Titans of sports,
but since everyone knows the trophy, you'd probably get to
know its namesake if you weren't already up to speed
on who John John big Job, William Heisman Happy would
have been one hundred and fifty fifth there. John Heisman
(28:05):
Heisman was a drama student and he had a passion
for football. He went to Brown and then Penn because
at the University Pennsylvania they allowed him to do something
that Brown would not, and that is to play baseball
as well as football. He would go on to Penn
Law School, and instead of following his studies into the
(28:25):
legal profession, he got into coaching and Oberlin College hired
him and that is where he began to change the
sport of football. The Oberlin Review wrote, quote, mister Heisman
has entirely remade our football. He has taught us scientific
football using the double pass from tackle to halfback. He's
moved his quarterback to the safety position. On defense, He's
(28:48):
implemented a flying wedge formation with seven players. Ever, I
knew you'd love that as a v to protect the
ball carrier. In eighteen ninety two, Oberlin beat Ohio State twice.
He then went to Butchell College. Butchell, Buchtel, Booktel, Bucktell,
and uh Big.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
He was hired Big Bush. That's big additions there.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
He was hired as the baseball and football coach and uh,
there's a bit of a economic down term in the
late eighteen nineties, so he left to run a tomato
forget and then he was hired by Clemson in nineteen
hundred again to coach baseball and football. Won titles. In
nineteen hundred OT Towo and Op three was called the
Master of Southern Football. They beat Georgia Tech seventy three nothing,
(29:34):
and on the spot Georgia offered him a raise. Died
in thirty six final tallies Football one hundred and eighty six,
seventy and eighteen, Baseball one hundred, ninetynine, one hundred and
eight and seven baseball, nine and fourteen basketball. I should
say nine and fourteen. John Heisman.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
It was terrible basketball.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Terrible basketball.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
He was awful. He's a Darvin Ham. It's terrible, all right, Matt, Well,
you're not done performing. You do have South Korea news.
Lee Key, whoa from soul Woo forty three years old
today from bang Kook University, home of the Bears, did
his mandatory military service thirteen years back.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
I buried in h endorses their tires.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Oh yeah, for sure, only after you rip a ball
so hard off him he's going to get in a
car to catcheans. He married a non celebrity like Kershaw
on Jiju Island two years ago. Only family members were invited.
He loved stray dogs and donated to a shelter.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
I just went through this and I saw a couple
of titles, and I said, you know what, we gotta dick.
Speaker 5 (30:37):
I can't all right, I think I have the riff
in my head. I'll have to do it acapella. It'll
sound terrible.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Dang dang, d do we have anything cats? Anything, bom bomb?
Speaker 6 (30:45):
Can't you do a rock and roll riff for matt Cakes?
Speaker 7 (30:48):
No?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Come on, Tim, You're better than that, all right?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Title number one, spin kick, I don't Second title, he
was cool, well done. Third title and this is what
(31:14):
drew me to it. And we will figure this out. Kids,
don't you worry? Cool guys, hot ramen. Oh, that's like
dudes on dudes flower Grandpa Investigation Unit.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
That's horn. Yeah, that's a triple riff, live all right.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Doctor detective. Oh yeah, here is the Tim Kate's story.
Someone behind you. Yeah, bend over and we'll call in it.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
We'll call it a comeback. There.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
South Korean News, Lee Key Wou and of course John
Heisman for your Dead Guy Birthday other day.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
We'll be back on tomorrow for a full show.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Eighteen guys die in a season. We're gonna change something
around the guy.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Well, you know, I was in Iowa State and I
did the Jack Trice game and they're like, yeah, he
was killed because he's black, and that very well could
have been true. I was like, well, what about the
other seventeen guys at time? That healing with seventeen other
dudes did? What did those guys fifty nine critically injured?
Speaker 2 (32:33):
This guy was?
Speaker 6 (32:34):
This guy was an economics major. We don't like them numbers.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
I don't know, it's unfortunate, very you'd think they just
not have the sport after a little while. Did those
men die in Vain? No, we got the forward pass
off it perfect. Those men died so Dan Marino could
live exactly right. Thank you, everybody, have a great night.
Enjoy for action.
