Pa trust Money seventy LA Sports Live everywhere on the

of celebration. If you were on the move and were

We just played. It was so packed that they didn't
have room for the Clayton Kershaw interview. We had to
(01:35):
play that here.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Absolutely, Matt. We were able to play it. They really
talked to everybody and it was a very special day
of celebration. The celebration will continue. There'll be a replay
on Friday of Game seven that everybody can enjoy. They're
replaying the fanfare at the stadium and we're happy to
(02:01):
be here. Jim Harbaugh coming off of victory, we'll join
us in the next segment, and he is excited to
talk a little bit of Dodgers. So we got a
lot going on. Thank you for listening to Great Sports Talk. Now,
great sports Talk. Let's get it going with the word
of the day. His words the word of the day.
(02:24):
Just a small aside, Matt. We discussed the thirty five
thousand dollars fine LaMelo Ball faced for breaking the lawing
jimming an official a pretty proper middle finger after being
called for an offensive foul last week. Well, we are
(02:44):
barely into the first week of November and nos faratu
Adam Silver is wrestling or trying to wrestle back control
of his league from the player. And he has hit
hard against Joe L. Embiid of the seventy six Ers
Matt for doing a very common crotch chop celebration. Oh yeah,
(03:09):
Sunday he made a leude gesture the crotch chop during
the Sixers loss to the Celtics midway through the first quarter.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
So and he was chopping early, chopping broccoly was it
like multiple Like, hey, this is going to be celebration, one.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Big one early in the early in the game. Now,
Embiid made a post on x when the NBA tweeted
out that they were finding him. Y'all better start finding
refs for doing the leude blocking foul gesture since I'm
not allowed to do it. So what Embiid is is
(03:46):
alleging is that every time a ref calls a blocking foul,
he's doing a gigantic crotch chop as well. And there
is a lot of thrusting from the NBA refs in
those tight slacks. There's no doubt, no doubt about it.
That's a great to do their own crotch chop too,
And the Beads saying, if you're going to find those
(04:06):
guys and find me, you're going to tell those guys
to dial if that'll be more money to be made.
NBA rafts do a real puzzo chop, real heart when
calling a blocking foul. And that is true, So we'll
see what the reacity. The ball's in your court now,
(04:28):
so to speak.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Dial these refs back, Adam Silver rest in those pelvis
is a little bit too much with those tight slacks
and their puzzo off.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I can't do a crotch chop at the raft when
we're losing to the Celtics. If that's breaking the law,
why aren't you. I mean, I understand the demonstrative charging
call or something like that, but blocking when you go
full crotch chop and Bead's got a point now a
middle finger, that's a horse of a different color.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
And I went back because the way you described it,
I was trying to get my hand to like, yeah,
well your fingers aren't going to be long enough. Yeah,
And I was like, that's just it. I can do it.
I'm a big enough hand. It's not easy. Yeah, it's
a very odd just normally it's just he my metal.
You know, it was a reactionary middle finger. You know,
it's not like LaMelo did it at Ogeron style where
(05:16):
he'd like got in a stance, you know, squatted down
into a ready position and then threw out both middle fingers.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
You know.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
It was really kind of more of a reactionary thing. Oh,
it was certainly in the moment. So we're on top
of that. It's not just Dodger celebration. We're on top
of everything around. Here a time for the number of
the day. Here's my number.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Well, we had David masse on last hour, and we
thank him for not castigating us, for asking a couple
of questions about next year. So why not as every
player that graced the stage and took the mic, from
Freddie Freeman to shohe Opani to Keike Hernandez pointed out,
(05:56):
let's do it again. We'll be right back here next year. Three.
It was painted in the sky by a sky riding plane.
So here's what we got.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Pe.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
The Dodgers, I would describe, are prohibitive favorites to win
the World Series. But old twenty twenty six, very old,
only one position player under the age of thirty, Andy Pahz.
So you're banking on I am thirty af players to
(06:27):
get this thing done. But as the odds just posted,
the Dodgers are plus three seventy five to win the
World Series or three point seventy five to one. Next
in line would be the Yankees at plus seven hundred,
and then the next National League team is the Phillies
at twelve to one. So the league, while they have
(06:48):
a number of as you like to call them, ink
stained wretches, that project that the Dodgers have ruined baseball
could lead to a strike. More on that a little
bit later in the show seventy twenty seven, like.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Do you think people still feel that way?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I would hope they saw the air of their ways
and pardon the punt and recognized that those seeds were
nefarious and did not deserve to be watered. Even see
any green shoots that produced extended conversation. Yet some people
coming out with thet's have a bigger payroll.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
They do.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
They have a bigger payroll, but they did not win.
The Dodgers won Blue Chase by the Way fourth fifth
highest payroll in baseball. But people, I think felt sorry
for the Canadians. They felt sorry for And because they
felt sorry for the Canadians, I found them to be
(07:41):
a little bit smug. I found them to be Canadian.
But may the odds makers be right again. Dodgers plus
three seventy five Yankees plus seven hundred the Phillies at
twelve to one. So the projection last year was bold
(08:04):
from the stage because the Dodgers had never done it.
No MLB team had done it in twenty five years.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
The Dodgers had never done it. That's big story.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Yeah, and now they've said free Pete's run it back,
Yamamoto Snell last now and no tani As you're starting
rotation that is locked in, Mookie Bets, Freddy Freeman, Max Months,
all still locked in. They are done a run it back,
as David Vasse said, maybe just some subtle tweaks because
they won, as opposed to a complete tear down and
(08:32):
get younger and try to figure this thing out.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Max Months, he's done playing third for the Dodgers. Does
Will Smith go to third? Good question, Kates?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Or does he go to first when Freddie Freeman has
done the following year.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Maybe Max can go to first and Will Smith can
get Kate's.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
I think Will Smith goes the first, Okay, I mean
Freddy's got what two years left for three two? I
think there's a five year deal, so he's got two left.
Speaker 5 (08:58):
With a double check you on that?
Speaker 3 (09:00):
All right? Well, I'll get up. We're crossing our t's
and dotting our eyes for twenty twenty six. Patro some
money on AM five seventy with the Song of the day, right,
this is the song of the day.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
Today's song of the day is the Dodgers song from
legendary entertainer and lifelong Dodger fan Danny k who recorded
this novelty tune in nineteen sixty two. A celebratory song
to congratulate your Los Angeles Dodgers for going back to
back hoisting that World Series trophy in a hard fought
series with the Toronto Blue Jays. So now we revel
(09:38):
in triumphant celebration as the City of Champions is once
again tasted the fruits of victory. Congratulations to the Dodgers
and Dodger fans all over the world.
Speaker 5 (09:49):

Speaker 3 (09:51):

lover of baseball, will join us in the very next
segment as we continue the celebration and continue great sports

Speaker 3 (11:16):

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Or no?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
They missed it? On Fox eleven.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
Oh well, you know what, they may have missed it
on Fox eleven, but.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
We don't miss that here. That's why.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Yeah, I mean, i'ming you guys are sheer professionals. At

So it's a good catch. It's a good catch.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
By you.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Warned everybody this time, right he did?
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Which why, which is why I was like, well, this
will be interesting.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Fox is a little bit more you know, they're a
little bit more game than the other networks. Just let
it fly man. Well, Spectrum Sports net cable, Yeah, they
can do whatever they want. Yeah, they watch the ESPN
lately it's changed dramatically.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Yeah. People say making all kinds of crazy statements. It's
not a crazy statement of saying some Modello meets you
a lot of Monday on the Petres and money. It's
not a real meach if it's not made with Modello.
A reward for those with the fighting spirit. Modello a
mark of a fighter. And it does feel as if
(12:27):
the city of Los Angeles is being rewarded with a
very very special era of Dodger baseball. It's hard to
put into perspective. There's a lot of things that are
hard to put into perspective because you're not supposed to
be able to dominate in baseball like this. There's a
lot of parody. Remember all the baseball's weird the payoffs,
we would hear, we would hear that if the Dodgers
(12:49):
would lose in the playoffs, we would hear not just
from random talking heads, but from Andrew Friedman. The playoffs
are a crap shoot. You never know what's going to happen,
show up at weird times and chips will fall. Well,
they may, and that's true they did this year. But
to win back to back World Series championships the Dodgers,
(13:10):
which I believe Tim Kates described or Vesa today as
the jewel of the city, a sports franchise that really
identifies the city of Los Angeles and the city identifies
with it. It is a pretty darn special thing. Hard
to find perspective on back to back championships, on five
(13:31):
World Series since they joined a seventy the station and
just the individual effort from guys like Mookie Betts moving
to shortstop and whipping himself into shortstop shape in his
thirties to be a gold Gloves Sports shortstop Shoeo Tawny
(13:54):
doing something no one ever does ever, not in modern times,
it just doesn't happen, and you watch it down the
stretch and kind of take it for granted because there's
no one to compare it to, there's no money to
put it into perspective. And then Yoshi Yamamoto on no rest,
going out and letting everybody know that he's available and not.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Just that two and two thirds, not one inning, not
one out, two and two thirds innings.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Performing And those are just some of the stories. And
then when you talk about just the construction of the roster,
all kinds of different guys like Andy Paez and the
play that he made, just the way that circumstance unfolded
certainly a great cause for celebration, and we're having it
here today in the city and it was a wonderful parade,
(14:45):
and you can't say enough about the work that Tim
Cats and David Vassy and all of our people have done,
and a nice culmination of that today through the streets
of downtown and at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I know, look it's you mentioned it Beyon, their coach,
so we'll get to him first. But like, let's not
forget before twenty twelve, when Frank McCourt was using this
team as an ATM machine, when there were still three
million people going to Dodger games, and he was telling
Ned Colletti that the max contract he could hand out
was two years.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Yeah, and he was. He was barred in shopping. Ned
was having to make chicken salad out of chicken ass
with guys like Manny Ramirez after he choked out a
travel secretary.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
That guy was a jerk. Why are they trading Manny?
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Well, he this old man joining us right now, a
great sportsman in town, dog and a man that under
understands the greatness of competition at the highest level and
how to inspire people in an organization top to bottom
to strive for excellence. The Chargers are fighting for it too,
(15:58):
getting banged up, but coming through with another victory on
the road, which is always hard in Tennessee. Yesterday Chargers win.
Coming home to take on the Steelers this week, but
to take a little bit of time out to celebrate
his football team and of course, the World Series champion
(16:18):
Los Angeles Dodgers. It is the immortal Jim Harbaugh, somebody
we love on the Petrosen Money Show on your Southern
California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Hotline. I've seen him a little
league games and I've seen him at Major league games.
He's a true seamhead and he always has his glove.
What's cracking, coach? How are you great to hear from
you today?
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Hey, petros I'll tell you what that. The enthusiasm is flowing.
I love it, and uh, you've you had me right there.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Awesome, Well you've been out. Let's coach, get those hips right,
let's go. Uh, you have a You've seen this team
now for two years? Because has you been in town
for two years? And they've won two championships? What's it
been like kind of watching this team? How hard is
it to enjoy baseball with your family when you're right
(17:09):
in the middle of the NFL season.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Well, we were able to had three three special nights
in a row. It was now it was last week,
but was it Monday Tuesday Wednesday?
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Monday, yeah, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday in a row. We finished
up practice and the games all started at five o'clock.
And my two boys, Johnny Harball and Jack Harball, came
over here to the office well watching practice tape and
going through preparation for the for the Titans, and they
(17:46):
sat right here. I'm at my desk. The two of
them are in the office. Here, there's a couple of cheers.
There's a couch, and we got a football. We're throwing
the football back and forth and watching the game. About
about as about as special as it gets. And uh,
just as long as we didn't didn't stand in front
of the TV. You can't, that's a rule, you can't.
(18:09):
You really got to trust their hands if it's thrown
near the TV. And then they were going out to
the field, uh you know, here and there, and uh
it was that was really that was really cool, really special.
And uh so I got to see you know, I
got to see most of the most of the innings,
most of the uh, most of the baseball. We watched
the first first game together. Epic, just epic games, dramatic,
(18:35):
you know, uh innings and uh it's just just incredible,
uh watching greatness. And I got Dave Dave Roberts. Uh,
I mean that was nothing short of, uh, you know,
just magnificent, master class managing and inspiring. I'm inspired by
(18:58):
the Dodgers. I'm I'm inspired by everything that you know
that never quit, never, never say die, attitude and just
finding a way, finding a way just uh, it's a
heck of an inspiration.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
You.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
So it was like what it was? It was. I mean,
you're watching some of the greatest baseball. You're watching some
of the greatest games. Uh, I mean every situation imaginable
and and and guys making plays, both teams uh doing
doing uh miraculous things. And it was it was.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
It was a joy.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
I mean, that was the popularity of baseball. I'm just
gonna assume is gonna is gonna skyrocket because of that,
because of this uh, because of this series. I mean
I remember remember Magic Johnson Larry Bird that some of
the their seven game series is it was that epic
(19:56):
to me, am I.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Wrong, not wrong, coach your absolute you are absolutely right.
I'm glad you brought up situational because there's someone that's
won a national championship, that has competed in multiple championships,
coached in championships. What what is it the coaches can
do to put the players in position to execute the
way they did in those games six and seven. You know,
(20:20):
in a game of inches, a force out at home
the andy pie has catched. How is how is it
the coaches prepare those players for those moments or can you?
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:30):
I mean you go over those situations and you should
be and uh but the proofson the pudding when you know,
ball gets stuck underneath the fence and uh, I'm going,
I don't know, they immediately knew hands hands in the
air and uh, you know, like like they knew exactly
what they're what they were doing. I mean, you know,
(20:52):
get a tag out at home plate and uh, you know,
the spike comes off, but then the spike goes back
down on the plate. I mean, there was a credible
playing the lines. I mean the simple stuff that we know,
you know, like yeah, you guard the line, your guard
the line in the late innings, and but it was
it was so much far beyond what you know, even
(21:13):
you know, the the avid fan would know. I mean
the situations that were coming up. I mean, I don't know,
I don't know what happens. Jack's looking at me, you know,
my boys looking at me. Go what happens. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
You you often coach talk about your quarterback. You've called
them a beast, one of the greatest ever. Just if
you can, I would love to make the parallel to Yoshi,
to Yoshi Yamamoto. And here's a guy that they pitched
on Friday night and through a complete game and was
warming up for the eighteen inning game the next night.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
What do you see like when you come across players
like that? And then here's a guy that throws two
and two thirds, you know, thirty four pitches the night
after he pitch to close that thing out and get
the win for the Dodgers in Game seven of the
World Series. But is there something that that those type
of players have, that those individuals have that you recognize
as a coach.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Yeah, I and uh, there's no doubt about it. Uh,
that was a balwart performance. And and since you know
the moment I saw I mean mental game live and
watched show Hey play, you know, and uh, yeah, and
it was everything. It's the presence. It's the presence. And
(22:34):
that's justin Herbert Show. Hey. To me, those are two
mirror images just just seeing both of them live and
and then watching show. Hey pitch, we we saw him
pitch once live. Uh that was this year when he
first any we pitched a one inning. Uh. Me and
(22:56):
my boys were at that game, and my daughter's Uh.
I mean the the precision, in the fundamentals and the technique.
I see the same thing and in Justin Herbert and
I think everybody looks at him go show. It's just
an amazing you know talent. Justin is an amazing talent.
But uh, I mean you can just see in the
(23:19):
precision and the technique, uh, the rhythm that they have,
the the process, the presence that's that's been I mean,
that's thousands of hours of of of work of of
really getting into that. You know that that just that's
(23:42):
which worked. It works. And then you know just the
freedom that they have when they play. Uh, you know,
nothing nothing forced, but that's I mean that work that
went into you know, making them great. You know, just
you just see it. It's and they just ooze it,
you know. H Yeah. Greatest greatest uh, greatest performance we
(24:05):
saw at this this series, you know, greatest performance by
player in the history of of the sport. Amazing, amazing
could be alive and be able to you know, tell
people that you watched it.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
You know, great perspective from an NFL head coach in season,
taking a couple of moments out to appreciate what the
Dodgers have accomplished here in the same city that he coaches.
The great Jim Harbaugh coach. I know that uh show
has never seen a nine on seven in his life.
But is he a quarterback if he plays football, or
(24:37):
is he like a will backer or maybe like a
tight end type?
Speaker 4 (24:46):
Wait? Yeah, tight end tight end type definitely, Like, yeah,
he could run, I'd he'd be he'd be incredible tight
end with the uh. But the significance in baseball, right,
I mean like the three home runs, the uh, the
the innings how many innings did he pay?
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Six and ten strikeouts?
Speaker 4 (25:11):
That the But no, he pitched more than that though.
Uh that was just in one game.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, that was the one game he hit the he
hit the three home runs and then had the uh
had the six for the series?
Speaker 4 (25:21):
How many? How many you pitched something like nine?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, it was because he only had he had two
and then you think he had was Babe Bruce seventeen.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Baby Bruce seventeen when he was with the Red Sox.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
That sounds right, but he didn't hit like that. My gosh, incredible.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
I mean this is like the the history of uh
of baseball. I wonder what that would be like for
for uh, you know, a football player. I mean that'd
be like it'd be like quarterbacking and then uh what else.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Chuck, you got to play both ways and then fighting
you Jam, We love you, and we we certainly appreciate
I'm inspired.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I was inspired by it. I was I was gonna
watch as much as I possibly could at of it,
and uh, you know, just just incredible. And Dave Roberts, Uh,
I mean to go down in the history of uh,
you know, he's one of the all time greats, if not,
if not the greatest. There was watching him manage for
(26:23):
the last two years, uh you know, real close. Uh
but I've seen it from before too, but I mean,
this is incredible to watch it inning for the inning game,
the game, master class, Master class, Dave Roberts.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Last thing for you, coach on your way out, and
we certainly appreciate you taking some time. We had the
parade coverage here for for ten hours, but you got
a game on Sunday, Steelers coming just uh kind of
your team coming out of Tennessee with a win, you
got six on the season here, feeling pretty good about
where you're at and what's coming up. If you give
us a little idea of kind of what you got
coming to town and how you feel about your team?
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Yeah, yeah, a team is uh overcame a lot in
this past ball game and and found a way you
know there you know their personality, that that is their personality,
find a way, never give up and uh never never flinch.
And that's that's all you can ask for as a coach.
(27:28):
And we just keep getting building, building, getting better. That's
that's what we're after. The key to that is being
better tomorrow than we are today. And that's that's what
we're attacking. Tough team coming into town. It's it's uh,
you know, really getting into uh you know, playoff implications
every every single game now and dealers us you know
(27:52):
these games will be be worth not just one but two,
you know, so uh that's what we're after us winning
and and uh and it'd be one week, one at time,
see one week one week's season, uh you know from
here on out, and that's that's gonna be our mindset.
Going down the stretch here.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Well, we've been watching Jim Harbaugh inspire people as a
player down at usd U, up to Stanford doing the unthinkable,
and of course all those great forty nine er teams,
the epic run at Michigan, and now here with the

Yeah, and you're watching it in the meal room on
Saturday or on Friday. Game six bus got in. Game
started right when they got in there, and place was packed.
Everybody just sitting there watching Game six. I think they
take a cue from their head coach.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah. This brought a lot of competitions, a lot of
people together, you know. I mean, I was just thinking
about driving home one of the those days we were
at Dodger Stadium on Monday, Wednesday or Tuesday, and just
driving through my neighborhood and you could just see in
the front room of everybody's house. Everybody's watching the game.
Everybody's together. And then Halloween, everybody's watching a lot of fun.

KFI at one o'clockday, Snday night game. Yeah, it's a
Sunday night er, five o'clock, just like the World Series.
But it is Monday. I'm gonna do what I do.
(31:37):
The weekend is mine. So how was your weekend? How
Matt you uh you were in Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Yes, yeah, Nashville talked about it with coachar Bough Friday night,
watched the game in the meal room, and then decided
to not go out to Broadway for holloween. Oh, Matt, yes,
I turned into an old man that just retreated to
his room. Well, last year you ended up a strip clubs.
There's that was a problem, not a Nashville. But however,
I did go down to Broadway. There's a lot of
(32:06):
great spots out there. Tootsi's Orchid is great. I went
into Roberts as they had their recession special going fried Maloney, sandwich, chips, moonpie,
and a PBR for just six dollars. Hung out there
for a little bit, hit up the Johnny Cash Museum,
the Grand Ole Opry, the Rhyman Theater, and then had
Game seven hosted by some friends in town and watched
(32:29):
it with a bunch of them and DJ and Shannon
in Tennessee. In Tennessee, a lot of folks out there
that have made the move to to Nashville, a lot
of Charger fans. So you were the friend in town
and you went to somebody's house, to somebody's place. Got
it Sunday. Obviously, we talked to Coach about it. Big
(32:50):
win in Tennessee, lost Joelt for the season. Not great,
and did not get home till late so feeling the
effects of the the wonderful government shutdown as our flight
was delayed for a few hours because of the air
traffic control situation.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
So yeah, that was it, all right, good stuff.
Speaker 5 (33:07):
Cam worked all weekend Friday. Friday, I was here for
the entire Game six because I was on standby if
the Dodgers had lost, the Dodgers were going to get
out of Toronto, so I had post game. But the
Dodgers won and sort you know, dramatic fashion, So as
soon as the final out was made, I packed up
my stuff and I went home. Saturday, I had Miami
SMU Studio work for Compass Media right here on I
(33:29):
seventyla Sports overtime. Yeah, game went to overtime, was beautiful
game down in Dallas, Texas. And then Saturday had Game
seven pre and post game. We took calls for about
ninety minutes. We were on the air until twelve thirty
in the morning, so that was a lot of fun.
This is a second year in a row the Dodgers
have won on the road, and by doing that, Dave
celebrates in the clubhouse and then I celebrate with the
(33:49):
fans for about ninety minutes afterwards, which I so that
was cool. And then Sunday Raiders pre half in posts.
Oh so close. They went for two and had the
ball swatted down the line sp but Tyler Lockett was
wide open at the back of the end zone of Gino.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
Just could have cut it over the top.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
So that was it. Guys.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
Actually got to sleep in past four forty five in
the morning, so feeling pretty good.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
Man.
Speaker 5 (34:10):
Congratulations, thank you, and the today was a long six
hour parade marathon coverage, so exceptional coverage.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 4 (34:17):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Ronnie, how is your weekend?
Speaker 6 (34:20):
And tim before I go on with my weekend, congratulations
indeed to you for your marathon coverage. It was excellent, excellent,
Thank you so much. Friday, after the show, I went
home and watched Game six with my wife on pins
and needles the entire game, letting off a primal scream
upon that double play. Thankfully, didn't get too many trick
(34:40):
or treaters. Maybe about a dozen kids would have interrupted me.
One would open the door just probably just toss candy out,
So I made my wife answer the door to give
out candy. The trick of treaters. Saturday was up early,
running eronds around town and noticing just about everyone wearing
their Dodger's gear of some sort hats. And then my
(35:02):
wife and I went to a Game seven watch party
at my son and his new bride's play so Julian
and Sydney's place. We got together with our family and friends,
hung out there and again it was an exciting time.
What a Saturday, it was, indeed one for the record books.
Got home rather late, slept in rather late as well.
On Sunday, watched NFL, recuperated and ordered a bunch of
(35:25):
Dodger World series gear on Oh, I couldn't help.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
You just have to go to the to the park
and fight people. No, I would go to the park.
Speaker 6 (35:33):
I just go online and order stuff you don't have
to pay. Worry about paying the the extra overinflated fees.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
All right, letus you.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Get to what two day shipping with Amazon?
Speaker 3 (35:43):
So look at you? Yeah? What about you Petros? How
is your we?
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Well?
Speaker 3 (35:46):
We had the Halloween and watched the game at the
prison warden Dad's house and Greg the Hammer Hall. They
have party, the two parties I always go to for
Halloween in the neighborhood and a lot of fanfare. Spent
two nights in a row at the prison warden dad's house.
A lot of superstition. You know, a lot of people like.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Oh yeah, yeah, Game six, Game seven, match it up,
But it was you're the reason why the Dodgers won.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Yeah, I appreciate that you follow the orders. There's a
lot of people that wore their special underwear, you know,
just like Yamamoto's interpreter and all that hero.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Well, last last night, you gave me your pappy, so yeah,
I have to pour that again. You know what he
got here.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
We lost a soccer game on Saturday morning, and guardena
very contentious uh. And then I went to yoga on Sunday,
laid low, uh, preparing for today's big celebration. But that
was it. And we'll be back with a top story
of the day and a flip top story of the

(01:35):
play that here.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Absolutely, Matt. We were able to play it. They really
talked to everybody and it was a very special day
of celebration. The celebration will continue. There'll be a replay
on Friday of Game seven that everybody can enjoy. They're
replaying the fanfare at the stadium and we're happy to
(02:01):
be here. Jim Harbaugh coming off of victory, we'll join
us in the next segment, and he is excited to
talk a little bit of Dodgers. So we got a
lot going on. Thank you for listening to Great Sports Talk. Now,
great sports Talk. Let's get it going with the word
of the day. His words the word of the day.
(02:24):
Just a small aside, Matt. We discussed the thirty five
thousand dollars fine LaMelo Ball faced for breaking the lawing
jimming an official a pretty proper middle finger after being
called for an offensive foul last week. Well, we are
(02:44):
barely into the first week of November and nos faratu
Adam Silver is wrestling or trying to wrestle back control
of his league from the player. And he has hit
hard against Joe L. Embiid of the seventy six Ers
Matt for doing a very common crotch chop celebration. Oh yeah,
(03:09):
Sunday he made a leude gesture the crotch chop during
the Sixers loss to the Celtics midway through the first quarter.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
So and he was chopping early, chopping broccoly was it
like multiple Like, hey, this is going to be celebration, one.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Big one early in the early in the game. Now,
Embiid made a post on x when the NBA tweeted
out that they were finding him. Y'all better start finding
refs for doing the leude blocking foul gesture since I'm
not allowed to do it. So what Embiid is is
(03:46):
alleging is that every time a ref calls a blocking foul,
he's doing a gigantic crotch chop as well. And there
is a lot of thrusting from the NBA refs in
those tight slacks. There's no doubt, no doubt about it.
That's a great to do their own crotch chop too,
And the Beads saying, if you're going to find those
(04:06):
guys and find me, you're going to tell those guys
to dial if that'll be more money to be made.
NBA rafts do a real puzzo chop, real heart when
calling a blocking foul. And that is true, So we'll
see what the reacity. The ball's in your court now,
(04:28):
so to speak.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Dial these refs back, Adam Silver rest in those pelvis
is a little bit too much with those tight slacks
and their puzzo off.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I can't do a crotch chop at the raft when
we're losing to the Celtics. If that's breaking the law,
why aren't you. I mean, I understand the demonstrative charging
call or something like that, but blocking when you go
full crotch chop and Bead's got a point now a
middle finger, that's a horse of a different color.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
And I went back because the way you described it,
I was trying to get my hand to like, yeah,
well your fingers aren't going to be long enough. Yeah,
And I was like, that's just it. I can do it.
I'm a big enough hand. It's not easy. Yeah, it's
a very odd just normally it's just he my metal.
You know, it was a reactionary middle finger. You know,
it's not like LaMelo did it at Ogeron style where
(05:16):
he'd like got in a stance, you know, squatted down
into a ready position and then threw out both middle fingers.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
You know.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
It was really kind of more of a reactionary thing. Oh,
it was certainly in the moment. So we're on top
of that. It's not just Dodger celebration. We're on top
of everything around. Here a time for the number of
the day. Here's my number.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Well, we had David masse on last hour, and we
thank him for not castigating us, for asking a couple
of questions about next year. So why not as every
player that graced the stage and took the mic, from
Freddie Freeman to shohe Opani to Keike Hernandez pointed out,
(05:56):
let's do it again. We'll be right back here next year. Three.
It was painted in the sky by a sky riding plane.
So here's what we got.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Pe.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
The Dodgers, I would describe, are prohibitive favorites to win
the World Series. But old twenty twenty six, very old,
only one position player under the age of thirty, Andy Pahz.
So you're banking on I am thirty af players to
(06:27):
get this thing done. But as the odds just posted,
the Dodgers are plus three seventy five to win the
World Series or three point seventy five to one. Next
in line would be the Yankees at plus seven hundred,
and then the next National League team is the Phillies
at twelve to one. So the league, while they have
(06:48):
a number of as you like to call them, ink
stained wretches, that project that the Dodgers have ruined baseball
could lead to a strike. More on that a little
bit later in the show seventy twenty seven, like.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Do you think people still feel that way?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I would hope they saw the air of their ways
and pardon the punt and recognized that those seeds were
nefarious and did not deserve to be watered. Even see
any green shoots that produced extended conversation. Yet some people
coming out with thet's have a bigger payroll.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
They do.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
They have a bigger payroll, but they did not win.
The Dodgers won Blue Chase by the Way fourth fifth
highest payroll in baseball. But people, I think felt sorry
for the Canadians. They felt sorry for And because they
felt sorry for the Canadians, I found them to be
(07:41):
a little bit smug. I found them to be Canadian.
But may the odds makers be right again. Dodgers plus
three seventy five Yankees plus seven hundred the Phillies at
twelve to one. So the projection last year was bold
(08:04):
from the stage because the Dodgers had never done it.
No MLB team had done it in twenty five years.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
The Dodgers had never done it. That's big story.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Yeah, and now they've said free Pete's run it back,
Yamamoto Snell last now and no tani As you're starting
rotation that is locked in, Mookie Bets, Freddy Freeman, Max Months,
all still locked in. They are done a run it back,
as David Vasse said, maybe just some subtle tweaks because
they won, as opposed to a complete tear down and
(08:32):
get younger and try to figure this thing out.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Max Months, he's done playing third for the Dodgers. Does
Will Smith go to third? Good question, Kates?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Or does he go to first when Freddie Freeman has
done the following year.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Maybe Max can go to first and Will Smith can
get Kate's.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
I think Will Smith goes the first, Okay, I mean
Freddy's got what two years left for three two? I
think there's a five year deal, so he's got two left.
Speaker 5 (08:58):
With a double check you on that?
Speaker 3 (09:00):
All right? Well, I'll get up. We're crossing our t's
and dotting our eyes for twenty twenty six. Patro some
money on AM five seventy with the Song of the day, right,
this is the song of the day.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
Today's song of the day is the Dodgers song from
legendary entertainer and lifelong Dodger fan Danny k who recorded
this novelty tune in nineteen sixty two. A celebratory song
to congratulate your Los Angeles Dodgers for going back to
back hoisting that World Series trophy in a hard fought
series with the Toronto Blue Jays. So now we revel
(09:38):
in triumphant celebration as the City of Champions is once
again tasted the fruits of victory. Congratulations to the Dodgers
and Dodger fans all over the world.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Ji Nt, well done, Ronnie, Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And we'll be right back with more great sports talk.
Great sports Talk. Jim Harbaugh, coach of the Chargers, one
lover of baseball, will join us in the very next
segment as we continue the celebration and continue great sports
(10:14):

Speaker 5 (10:16):
No way, then fairly stay with us into a double play.

Speaker 3 (11:16):

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Or no?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
They missed it? On Fox eleven.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
Oh well, you know what, they may have missed it
on Fox eleven, but.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
We don't miss that here. That's why.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Yeah, I mean, i'ming you guys are sheer professionals. At
the end of the day, you know, it goes, I
gotta fire somebody. Somebody's got to be accountable. And your
fingers on that button, Ronnie, good luck with that now.
So it's a good catch. It's a good catch.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
By you.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Warned everybody this time, right he did?
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Which why, which is why I was like, well, this
will be interesting.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Fox is a little bit more you know, they're a
little bit more game than the other networks. Just let
it fly man. Well, Spectrum Sports net cable, Yeah, they
can do whatever they want. Yeah, they watch the ESPN
lately it's changed dramatically.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Yeah. People say making all kinds of crazy statements. It's
not a crazy statement of saying some Modello meets you
a lot of Monday on the Petres and money. It's
not a real meach if it's not made with Modello.
A reward for those with the fighting spirit. Modello a
mark of a fighter. And it does feel as if
(12:27):
the city of Los Angeles is being rewarded with a
very very special era of Dodger baseball. It's hard to
put into perspective. There's a lot of things that are
hard to put into perspective because you're not supposed to
be able to dominate in baseball like this. There's a
lot of parody. Remember all the baseball's weird the payoffs,
we would hear, we would hear that if the Dodgers
(12:49):
would lose in the playoffs, we would hear not just
from random talking heads, but from Andrew Friedman. The playoffs
are a crap shoot. You never know what's going to happen,
show up at weird times and chips will fall. Well,
they may, and that's true they did this year. But
to win back to back World Series championships the Dodgers,
(13:10):
which I believe Tim Kates described or Vesa today as
the jewel of the city, a sports franchise that really
identifies the city of Los Angeles and the city identifies
with it. It is a pretty darn special thing. Hard
to find perspective on back to back championships, on five
(13:31):
World Series since they joined a seventy the station and
just the individual effort from guys like Mookie Betts moving
to shortstop and whipping himself into shortstop shape in his
thirties to be a gold Gloves Sports shortstop Shoeo Tawny
(13:54):
doing something no one ever does ever, not in modern times,
it just doesn't happen, and you watch it down the
stretch and kind of take it for granted because there's
no one to compare it to, there's no money to
put it into perspective. And then Yoshi Yamamoto on no rest,
going out and letting everybody know that he's available and not.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Just that two and two thirds, not one inning, not
one out, two and two thirds innings.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Performing And those are just some of the stories. And
then when you talk about just the construction of the roster,
all kinds of different guys like Andy Paez and the
play that he made, just the way that circumstance unfolded
certainly a great cause for celebration, and we're having it
here today in the city and it was a wonderful parade,
(14:45):
and you can't say enough about the work that Tim
Cats and David Vassy and all of our people have done,
and a nice culmination of that today through the streets
of downtown and at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I know, look it's you mentioned it Beyon, their coach,
so we'll get to him first. But like, let's not
forget before twenty twelve, when Frank McCourt was using this
team as an ATM machine, when there were still three
million people going to Dodger games, and he was telling
Ned Colletti that the max contract he could hand out
was two years.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Yeah, and he was. He was barred in shopping. Ned
was having to make chicken salad out of chicken ass
with guys like Manny Ramirez after he choked out a
travel secretary.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
That guy was a jerk. Why are they trading Manny?
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Well, he this old man joining us right now, a
great sportsman in town, dog and a man that under
understands the greatness of competition at the highest level and
how to inspire people in an organization top to bottom
to strive for excellence. The Chargers are fighting for it too,
(15:58):
getting banged up, but coming through with another victory on
the road, which is always hard in Tennessee. Yesterday Chargers win.
Coming home to take on the Steelers this week, but
to take a little bit of time out to celebrate
his football team and of course, the World Series champion
(16:18):
Los Angeles Dodgers. It is the immortal Jim Harbaugh, somebody
we love on the Petrosen Money Show on your Southern
California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Hotline. I've seen him a little
league games and I've seen him at Major league games.
He's a true seamhead and he always has his glove.
What's cracking, coach? How are you great to hear from
you today?
Speaker 4 (16:39):
Hey, petros I'll tell you what that. The enthusiasm is flowing.
I love it, and uh, you've you had me right there.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Awesome, Well you've been out. Let's coach, get those hips right,
let's go. Uh, you have a You've seen this team
now for two years? Because has you been in town
for two years? And they've won two championships? What's it
been like kind of watching this team? How hard is
it to enjoy baseball with your family when you're right
(17:09):
in the middle of the NFL season.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Well, we were able to had three three special nights
in a row. It was now it was last week,
but was it Monday Tuesday Wednesday?
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Monday, yeah, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday in a row. We finished
up practice and the games all started at five o'clock.
And my two boys, Johnny Harball and Jack Harball, came
over here to the office well watching practice tape and
going through preparation for the for the Titans, and they
(17:46):
sat right here. I'm at my desk. The two of
them are in the office. Here, there's a couple of cheers.
There's a couch, and we got a football. We're throwing
the football back and forth and watching the game. About
about as about as special as it gets. And uh,
just as long as we didn't didn't stand in front
of the TV. You can't, that's a rule, you can't.
(18:09):
You really got to trust their hands if it's thrown
near the TV. And then they were going out to
the field, uh you know, here and there, and uh
it was that was really that was really cool, really special.
And uh so I got to see you know, I
got to see most of the most of the innings,
most of the uh, most of the baseball. We watched
the first first game together. Epic, just epic games, dramatic,
(18:35):
you know, uh innings and uh it's just just incredible,
uh watching greatness. And I got Dave Dave Roberts. Uh,
I mean that was nothing short of, uh, you know,
just magnificent, master class managing and inspiring. I'm inspired by
(18:58):
the Dodgers. I'm I'm inspired by everything that you know
that never quit, never, never say die, attitude and just
finding a way, finding a way just uh, it's a
heck of an inspiration.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
You.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
So it was like what it was? It was. I mean,
you're watching some of the greatest baseball. You're watching some
of the greatest games. Uh, I mean every situation imaginable
and and and guys making plays, both teams uh doing
doing uh miraculous things. And it was it was.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
It was a joy.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
I mean, that was the popularity of baseball. I'm just
gonna assume is gonna is gonna skyrocket because of that,
because of this uh, because of this series. I mean
I remember remember Magic Johnson Larry Bird that some of
the their seven game series is it was that epic
(19:56):
to me, am I.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Wrong, not wrong, coach your absolute you are absolutely right.
I'm glad you brought up situational because there's someone that's
won a national championship, that has competed in multiple championships,
coached in championships. What what is it the coaches can
do to put the players in position to execute the
way they did in those games six and seven. You know,
(20:20):
in a game of inches, a force out at home
the andy pie has catched. How is how is it
the coaches prepare those players for those moments or can you?
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:30):
I mean you go over those situations and you should
be and uh but the proofson the pudding when you know,
ball gets stuck underneath the fence and uh, I'm going,
I don't know, they immediately knew hands hands in the
air and uh, you know, like like they knew exactly
what they're what they were doing. I mean, you know,
(20:52):
get a tag out at home plate and uh, you know,
the spike comes off, but then the spike goes back
down on the plate. I mean, there was a credible
playing the lines. I mean the simple stuff that we know,
you know, like yeah, you guard the line, your guard
the line in the late innings, and but it was
it was so much far beyond what you know, even
(21:13):
you know, the the avid fan would know. I mean
the situations that were coming up. I mean, I don't know,
I don't know what happens. Jack's looking at me, you know,
my boys looking at me. Go what happens. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
You you often coach talk about your quarterback. You've called
them a beast, one of the greatest ever. Just if
you can, I would love to make the parallel to Yoshi,
to Yoshi Yamamoto. And here's a guy that they pitched
on Friday night and through a complete game and was
warming up for the eighteen inning game the next night.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
What do you see like when you come across players
like that? And then here's a guy that throws two
and two thirds, you know, thirty four pitches the night
after he pitch to close that thing out and get
the win for the Dodgers in Game seven of the
World Series. But is there something that that those type
of players have, that those individuals have that you recognize
as a coach.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Yeah, I and uh, there's no doubt about it. Uh,
that was a balwart performance. And and since you know
the moment I saw I mean mental game live and
watched show Hey play, you know, and uh, yeah, and
it was everything. It's the presence. It's the presence. And
(22:34):
that's justin Herbert Show. Hey. To me, those are two
mirror images just just seeing both of them live and
and then watching show. Hey pitch, we we saw him
pitch once live. Uh that was this year when he
first any we pitched a one inning. Uh. Me and
(22:56):
my boys were at that game, and my daughter's Uh.
I mean the the precision, in the fundamentals and the technique.
I see the same thing and in Justin Herbert and
I think everybody looks at him go show. It's just
an amazing you know talent. Justin is an amazing talent.
But uh, I mean you can just see in the
(23:19):
precision and the technique, uh, the rhythm that they have,
the the process, the presence that's that's been I mean,
that's thousands of hours of of of work of of
really getting into that. You know that that just that's
(23:42):
which worked. It works. And then you know just the
freedom that they have when they play. Uh, you know,
nothing nothing forced, but that's I mean that work that
went into you know, making them great. You know, just
you just see it. It's and they just ooze it,
you know. H Yeah. Greatest greatest uh, greatest performance we
(24:05):
saw at this this series, you know, greatest performance by
player in the history of of the sport. Amazing, amazing
could be alive and be able to you know, tell
people that you watched it.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
You know, great perspective from an NFL head coach in season,
taking a couple of moments out to appreciate what the
Dodgers have accomplished here in the same city that he coaches.
The great Jim Harbaugh coach. I know that uh show
has never seen a nine on seven in his life.
But is he a quarterback if he plays football, or
(24:37):
is he like a will backer or maybe like a
tight end type?
Speaker 4 (24:46):
Wait? Yeah, tight end tight end type definitely, Like, yeah,
he could run, I'd he'd be he'd be incredible tight
end with the uh. But the significance in baseball, right,
I mean like the three home runs, the uh, the
the innings how many innings did he pay?
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Six and ten strikeouts?
Speaker 4 (25:11):
That the But no, he pitched more than that though.
Uh that was just in one game.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, that was the one game he hit the he
hit the three home runs and then had the uh
had the six for the series?
Speaker 4 (25:21):
How many? How many you pitched something like nine?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, it was because he only had he had two
and then you think he had was Babe Bruce seventeen.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Baby Bruce seventeen when he was with the Red Sox.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
That sounds right, but he didn't hit like that. My gosh, incredible.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
I mean this is like the the history of uh
of baseball. I wonder what that would be like for
for uh, you know, a football player. I mean that'd
be like it'd be like quarterbacking and then uh what else.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Chuck, you got to play both ways and then fighting
you Jam, We love you, and we we certainly appreciate
I'm inspired.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I was inspired by it. I was I was gonna
watch as much as I possibly could at of it,
and uh, you know, just just incredible. And Dave Roberts, Uh,
I mean to go down in the history of uh,
you know, he's one of the all time greats, if not,
if not the greatest. There was watching him manage for
(26:23):
the last two years, uh you know, real close. Uh
but I've seen it from before too, but I mean,
this is incredible to watch it inning for the inning game,
the game, master class, Master class, Dave Roberts.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Last thing for you, coach on your way out, and
we certainly appreciate you taking some time. We had the
parade coverage here for for ten hours, but you got
a game on Sunday, Steelers coming just uh kind of
your team coming out of Tennessee with a win, you
got six on the season here, feeling pretty good about
where you're at and what's coming up. If you give
us a little idea of kind of what you got
coming to town and how you feel about your team?
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Yeah, yeah, a team is uh overcame a lot in
this past ball game and and found a way you
know there you know their personality, that that is their personality,
find a way, never give up and uh never never flinch.
And that's that's all you can ask for as a coach.
(27:28):
And we just keep getting building, building, getting better. That's
that's what we're after. The key to that is being
better tomorrow than we are today. And that's that's what
we're attacking. Tough team coming into town. It's it's uh,
you know, really getting into uh you know, playoff implications
every every single game now and dealers us you know
(27:52):
these games will be be worth not just one but two,
you know, so uh that's what we're after us winning
and and uh and it'd be one week, one at time,
see one week one week's season, uh you know from
here on out, and that's that's gonna be our mindset.
Going down the stretch here.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Well, we've been watching Jim Harbaugh inspire people as a
player down at usd U, up to Stanford doing the unthinkable,
and of course all those great forty nine er teams,
the epic run at Michigan, and now here with the
Chargers quarterbacks playing inspired football, running around like a mad
man in Tennessee and the rain. God bless your coach,
(28:35):
and here's to having.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
A great Yes you're saying I inspire people. I mean
how many times you get asked to go go talk
to a team like the.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Game only my high school out there, only the Peninsula
Panthers up on top of the.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
Hill to Petros. Bring him in, talk to your team
and uh, you got you got a big game on
the docket. Bring him in and get the team fired up.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
I'm gonna bring my Civil War maps and start showing
what anyway.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
God, God, please you would you'd do something, you would
do something. It'd be incredible.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
You're incredible, coach, ya.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
I would think you'd be getting asked at every week
every weekend.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
You know, I'm an acquired taste that you have but
others have not acquired. Have a wonderful night, coach, and
go Chargers. Good luck to you this year.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Thanks for doing this, Thanks Monny, thanks Petrols.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Appreciate you. There he goes, Wow, that's pretty cool to
have an NFL coach on talking like that about another sport.
Pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Yeah, and you're watching it in the meal room on
Saturday or on Friday. Game six bus got in. Game
started right when they got in there, and place was packed.
Everybody just sitting there watching Game six. I think they
take a cue from their head coach.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah. This brought a lot of competitions, a lot of
people together, you know. I mean, I was just thinking
about driving home one of the those days we were
at Dodger Stadium on Monday, Wednesday or Tuesday, and just
driving through my neighborhood and you could just see in
the front room of everybody's house. Everybody's watching the game.
Everybody's together. And then Halloween, everybody's watching a lot of fun.

The weekend is mine. So how was your weekend? How
Matt you uh you were in Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Yes, yeah, Nashville talked about it with coachar Bough Friday night,
watched the game in the meal room, and then decided
to not go out to Broadway for holloween. Oh, Matt, yes,
I turned into an old man that just retreated to
his room. Well, last year you ended up a strip clubs.
There's that was a problem, not a Nashville. But however,
I did go down to Broadway. There's a lot of
(32:06):
great spots out there. Tootsi's Orchid is great. I went
into Roberts as they had their recession special going fried Maloney, sandwich, chips, moonpie,
and a PBR for just six dollars. Hung out there
for a little bit, hit up the Johnny Cash Museum,
the Grand Ole Opry, the Rhyman Theater, and then had
Game seven hosted by some friends in town and watched
(32:29):
it with a bunch of them and DJ and Shannon
in Tennessee. In Tennessee, a lot of folks out there
that have made the move to to Nashville, a lot
of Charger fans. So you were the friend in town
and you went to somebody's house, to somebody's place. Got
it Sunday. Obviously, we talked to Coach about it. Big
(32:50):
win in Tennessee, lost Joelt for the season. Not great,
and did not get home till late so feeling the
effects of the the wonderful government shutdown as our flight
was delayed for a few hours because of the air
traffic control situation.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
So yeah, that was it, all right, good stuff.
Speaker 5 (33:07):
Cam worked all weekend Friday. Friday, I was here for
the entire Game six because I was on standby if
the Dodgers had lost, the Dodgers were going to get
out of Toronto, so I had post game. But the
Dodgers won and sort you know, dramatic fashion, So as
soon as the final out was made, I packed up
my stuff and I went home. Saturday, I had Miami
SMU Studio work for Compass Media right here on I
(33:29):
seventyla Sports overtime. Yeah, game went to overtime, was beautiful
game down in Dallas, Texas. And then Saturday had Game
seven pre and post game. We took calls for about
ninety minutes. We were on the air until twelve thirty
in the morning, so that was a lot of fun.
This is a second year in a row the Dodgers
have won on the road, and by doing that, Dave
celebrates in the clubhouse and then I celebrate with the
(33:49):
fans for about ninety minutes afterwards, which I so that
was cool. And then Sunday Raiders pre half in posts.
Oh so close. They went for two and had the
ball swatted down the line sp but Tyler Lockett was
wide open at the back of the end zone of Gino.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
Just could have cut it over the top.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
So that was it. Guys.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
Actually got to sleep in past four forty five in
the morning, so feeling pretty good.
Speaker 4 (34:10):

Speaker 6 (34:20):
And tim before I go on with my weekend, congratulations
indeed to you for your marathon coverage. It was excellent, excellent,
Thank you so much. Friday, after the show, I went
home and watched Game six with my wife on pins
and needles the entire game, letting off a primal scream
upon that double play. Thankfully, didn't get too many trick
(34:40):
or treaters. Maybe about a dozen kids would have interrupted me.
One would open the door just probably just toss candy out,
So I made my wife answer the door to give
out candy. The trick of treaters. Saturday was up early,
running eronds around town and noticing just about everyone wearing
their Dodger's gear of some sort hats. And then my
(35:02):
wife and I went to a Game seven watch party
at my son and his new bride's play so Julian
and Sydney's place. We got together with our family and friends,
hung out there and again it was an exciting time.
What a Saturday, it was, indeed one for the record books.
Got home rather late, slept in rather late as well.
On Sunday, watched NFL, recuperated and ordered a bunch of
(35:25):
Dodger World series gear on Oh, I couldn't help.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
You just have to go to the to the park
and fight people. No, I would go to the park.
Speaker 6 (35:33):
I just go online and order stuff you don't have
to pay. Worry about paying the the extra overinflated fees.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
All right, letus you.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Get to what two day shipping with Amazon?
Speaker 3 (35:43):
So look at you? Yeah? What about you Petros? How

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Well?
Speaker 3 (35:46):
We had the Halloween and watched the game at the
prison warden Dad's house and Greg the Hammer Hall. They
have party, the two parties I always go to for
Halloween in the neighborhood and a lot of fanfare. Spent
two nights in a row at the prison warden dad's house.
A lot of superstition. You know, a lot of people like.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Oh yeah, yeah, Game six, Game seven, match it up,
But it was you're the reason why the Dodgers won.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Yeah, I appreciate that you follow the orders. There's a
lot of people that wore their special underwear, you know,
just like Yamamoto's interpreter and all that hero.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Well, last last night, you gave me your pappy, so yeah,
I have to pour that again. You know what he
got here.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
We lost a soccer game on Saturday morning, and guardena
very contentious uh. And then I went to yoga on Sunday,
laid low, uh, preparing for today's big celebration. But that
was it. And we'll be back with a top story
