Speaker 2 (01:07):
Gull me you Spetrosen Money five seventy LA Sports live
everywhere on the iHeartRadio app making our way until seven pm,
a full four hour show. Today, we've hit the halfway mark,
as we will go to off day Dodger Talk tonight.
By the way, tomorrow it'll be Dodger's Rockies from the Galp.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
I got to talk about that show a lot of
talk about that off night Dodger.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Talk been a theme today. Kates has something up his sleeve.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
And you know, DK pitching the theme today was threaded
throughout the Rogan and Rodney show. Not cool, and Kates
feels as if it was it was stolen stolen content,
like the British government stole a bunch of the stuff
from the Parthenon in Athens and it's now on stay
on display at the British Museum and that really pisses
off the Greeks. They want their stuff back. And Tim
(01:50):
Kates he can't get that intellectual property back from Rogan
and Rodney. It's not like a statue. It's just flown
off into the ether, as you would say, Matt And now, uh,
what is he had to show for a toweringly tedious
topic tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
It's like it's like stolen valor, That's what it is.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
It is.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
It's like they didn't crawl through the mock no to
make up that topic. Hates came up with that last
night his Isabelle call, Like, what's Isabelle going to be
like when she gets on the air tonight?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
They already stole the call.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
She did share that it was Coliny's birthday yesterday unbeknownst
to Kate. So that's unfortunately, you know, maybe you get
easy back in there as to thank you for that
instead of leaving her on a hold for an hour
and a half and then ending the show without having
talked to it.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
We are proud that it's a Modella meets a lot
of Monday though, mad I mean, that's a good spot
meets a.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Lot of It's not made with monella. It is a
reward for those with a fighting spirit, something we have here,
especially on a Monday, that we get to go a
full four hours from three to seven because Modello, that's
the market to fighter. That's why we signed up to
be part of this rise the number one A Champion
Champions of SuDS.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Oh, we've written.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Back Bdello all the way to the through the sky
and it's not stopping. And Matt, it's not gonna peak
like the bat Wing and look all cool in the
moon like it did in the first Batman movie and
come back down into back attacked the Joker. But it's
not gonna do that. It's just gonna go straight up
straight on till morning. Orderlate to you and orderly to
(03:17):
all Modelos.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
And all the.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Markings of Loos fighters in the city to see your.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Dot and beyond. But now, Mat, it is time we'll
call this the flip top story of the day. I'll
clip you out, i will look you out. Now tell
me this is the flip top story of the day.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Now, Matt, we are closely monitoring the situation that has
arisen with the Athleticos, the Oakland A's, one of the
great old baseball franchises, greatest uniforms, a lot of history there.
We think about the Bash Brothers, no doubt, Dennis Ackersley,
(03:58):
Tony Larusa, Ricky Henderson, our friend Dallas Braden Nay Mary
give me that.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Back the nineteen seventies A's with Roley Fingers and Reggie Jackson.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Rick Monday, Carney Lansford, Oh, Carney. We closely have monitored
the situation in Oakland, and we are your Oakland, California,
home of the rock eight Wolfers in the trunk, beating
down the block, show of record, or Oakland, California City
of liars, everybody rolling on twenty inch tires, show of record.
(04:34):
But the situation is now no longer in Oakland, Matt.
It's just a smoldering crater of desolation. The situation has
moved to Sacramento and today the situation with the Oakland
A's was in Las Vegas now.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Ah, hence the Vegas casino background.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Though John Fisher, oh bad guy, is the A's owner,
people don't seem to like him. There's been significant community
pushback from everywhere against John Fisher, whether that be in Oakland,
in Sacramento or Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Lucky Sperm is the John Fisher way of making money.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Well, sometimes that's the best way. His parents started GAP,
which is still a great company. As the athletic Gos
inch closer to officially moving to Las Vegas, they held
a groundbreaking ceremony for the new ballpark on the Las
Vegas Strip. It's going to cover nine acres of the
(05:33):
old Tropicana site. Now, they did flirt with the wild
West camping hall down there, and they wanted downtown are
because Vegas was like, hey, we got so much on this.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Strip, we don't need anybody coming.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Why don't you guys go downtown so we can fix
up downtown right, Why don't you be the beginning of
the downtown greatness? And the Oakland a said, oh, contrere moufrere.
We would like to be part of the action as
we have been, truly, truly, and it's probably their fault,
(06:08):
but Oakland has been floundering.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I mean they've lost three teams in the last ten years.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Floundering in feces in Oakland for years. So they don't
want to go to Naked City and see the desolation,
desolation of Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Ball the shadow of the Stratus.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
They don't want to be in the strato of the
shat the Strata is the worst. So they did it
groundbreaking after the year's long process, and Tinoman John Fisher
and MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred were president at the event.
(06:45):
It was hosted by the athletics commentator and player and
former PMS guest Nay Night Give me that back, Dallas Braden.
And it's kind of sad because the Trump was there
for sixty seven years. It was the third largest casino
(07:06):
in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
First time I ever had a greyhound while playing pigow Trump.
As guided by one of my old man's friends. Here's
what you do. You sit here, they bring you the drinks.
You didn't win too much, you don't lose too much.
You just cruise and you drink. What do you drink?
Speaker 4 (07:24):
That's what the Trompicicanna had offered. I was taken to
see Vinnie Favarrito comedia that at the Tropic Cana. So
I'm not sweating it either. I mean, you might have
had a Greyhound mad, but I saw Vinnie Favorrito. You
guys could tell us your Trumpic Canna stories.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
That's fine.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Also at the event today, Raleigh Fingers still have a stash. Yes, Stomper,
the element elephant.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Oh, the mascot.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
The mascot.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
It's a great mascot, and you guessed it a rash
Marcazi Aras Marcazi took several pictures, most importantly of what
Matt donuts that were available. Look at those sweet donuts.
(08:13):
How cool are those donuts?
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Looked at the free donuts. I got a nice marble frosted,
I got a sprinkle, and we got some jelly filled
with the A's logo. Oh that's a Boston cream with
the A's logo and a jelly filled probably strawberry.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Welcome to our groundbreaking in Las Vegas. Nothing that Las
Vegas is known for, like a champagne super fountain or
a bunch of beluga caviar.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
That was some shrimp on ice. Oh, some scramps, you know. Instead,
look at these donuts.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
And there's Roley Fingers with his golden shovel standing nice
to stomper the elephant. It looks so cool. They have
like a they have like a picture of what the
stadium is gonna look like.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Right screened on to the top of that jelly Now
that ballpark.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Of what it's gonna look like.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
It's not gonna be on a don't it's gonna be
real not expected to be ready until the start of
the twenty twenty eight MLB season. Twenty twenty eight, twenty
twenty eight, so it's twenty twenty five, you get to
play twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
They're not even halfway through this season.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Twenty twenty and they're barely making it. Yeah to Souder
Health Park, West Sacramento, West Sacramento, by the Golden Bridge
Cutter Health Park, where the River Cat's played.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Where are they going to go?
Speaker 3 (09:25):
They can't go in. They're there.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
They're there for twenty twenty six, they're there for twenty
twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
But in twenty twenty eight, the a's.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Will open that ballpark in beautiful Las Vegas, who expected
to seat roughly thirty three thousand fans.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
So a small park.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
The cost of the new park is estimated to be
one point seventy five billion dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
For thirty three thousand people.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
It might be really cool, like the Into It, don't.
I mean, remember how long it took to build the
Into It don't long time? Remember how angry we were
about twenty nails. We ran everybody running over nails, everybody
running into traffic, everybody upset about inglewood, everybody unhappy trying
to get to SULFI why because of the Into It don't.
But now it's there, and you could pay eighty dollars
to put.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
But it's again.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Here is MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred earlier today at the event.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
I could not be more excited to be here in
Las Vegas.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Today.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
Las Vegas has proven itself to be a great sports
town and a great host to professional franchises. You at
Major League Baseball. All the owners are excited to be
adding Major League Baseball to the entertainment alternatives that are
available here in southern Nevada. The athletics prostitutions Legal two
(10:50):
and proud history, nine World series titles, great players like
Ricky Henderson, Dave Stewart, Roley Fingers. Still the list goes on, and.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I think as well as.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
The beginning of a new chapter in that great history.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Thank you, Rob Manfred.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
By the way, you want some other nuggets on the stadium, Yeah,
thirty three thousand. As you mentioned, it's gonna feature the
closest seats to home plate and the smallest foul territory
of any MLB ballpark out there.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
That seems dangerous beare.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
And you guys keep joking about it. It's gonna be
so hot out there. It's gonna be a domed stadium.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
I would hope. So it's a hard five degrees plays outdoors. Well,
is it domed or is it flown? It's a glass roof.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Does it retract?
Speaker 3 (11:48):
No, well that would be that would be the cost.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Then, Matt, why would they not build a retract because
it can always.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
That's terrible Today in Vegas, it's.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Ninety three Tomorrow's ninety four Wednesday, it's ninety eight Thursday.
It's one o two Friday, it's one o two Saturday,
one oh three, it's saysday one oh five that's two says.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
The building will be fully enclosed by a roof that
will attenuate direct sunlight glare while welcoming indirect natural light
through the northern oriented windows.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
So it's going to be like the Dallas Palace where
like you can't see and you drop touchdowns.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
That is that problem there from home plate, the see
through dome will offer views of the Vegas Strip with
the New York New York Casino and MGM Grand in
clear sight right beyond the outfield.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
It just sounds kind of cool, man. I mean, I
like the fact that they got it. I thought it
was going to be outside. I was under the impression
there was going to be outside.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
They're going to be retractable, open that thing to get
the fresh air when it's nice.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
Well, now no one's happy.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Nobody.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
I wanted it to be inside. You wanted it to
be retractable. Kates wanted it to be outside. And nobody's happy.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Nobody's happy.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I still want to see what it's like.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Fishbowl. It's a fishbowl. You know what happens in a
fish bowl? You feel trapped. That fish is like, I
want to get out of here, but I'm swimming.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
In a circle. I feel trapped everywhere I go. Let's
be on it.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
Wait, isn't uh Sofi Stadium basically a glass roof too?
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Yeah, it should have made it retractable. Yeah, Instead they
put this canopy over it. But it'll get a nice breeze.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
We are past the point of selling that on our show,
so we could tell the truth about So.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Look up and you're like, it just looks like a
bunch of scaffolding.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Yeah, it sucks.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Like why didn't you just make it a retractable roof?
Speaker 4 (13:31):
But if it's one hundred degrees outside, it's one hundred
degrees inside because it's not really an air condition building. No,
it just sucks. Breeze few kronky, all right, we'll be
back with more great sports talk. We will do the
Sight Sports Talk top story of the day about Walter
owning the Lakers and what can he actually do?
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Oh, he's got so much money.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
From Matt money Smith, who loves money. It's in his name.
We will discuss it in the very next segment.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
How need you to build that place in in in Vegas?
I can't wait to go. Petterson Money Show is going

It's hard to turn down its cold modello on a
day like this. That's not about that happen to be
back with one meets a lot of Monday. It's not
a real me. It's just not made with a modell.
That's a reward for those of the fighting spirit modelo
as the Markovich hider. Tim Katz has off night Dodge
(14:55):
Talk Tonight at seven tomorrow, Dodgers at Rockies, Dodgers on
Deck and four thirty First Pitch at five forty doors.
Well yeah, we're your Dodger station Doors.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I went on a sales call today and the guy
was like, Doyers, you played football. I thought you were
a baseball broadcaster. It's like we do the show before.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
I was like, all right, I care, what do you
want me to sell.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
That's what I said. What what?
Speaker 2 (15:20):
What would you like me?
Speaker 3 (15:21):
But you done? You didn't read over to the material.
It's like, no, are you gonna hire me or not?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
That's why I'm here.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
He's like, tell me what you do.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
You're gonna walk me through it.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
We are interviewing you, young mom.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Hey, you know what you did? You walked in like
s door.
Speaker 3 (15:36):

too much cologne.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
We'll find out.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Let's go outside. Do you smell so bad? You smell
like speed stick? What is your favorite offense.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
The other end of the poor?
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Hey, all right, Matt, you got the top story there,
top story of it. Uh, you can make fun of
me as long as the phone ring you know.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Okay, Yes, that's what I plan to do.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Uh? What's what's my leeway?
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Here?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
By the way?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
One week noting that gets.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
When Mark Walter bought the Lakers majority share from the
bus family, main talking point around town and in the
sporting nation is how will it change the team?
Speaker 4 (16:28):
You? Palinka right, got to pack up your stuff. Freaking
Linda Rambis. You suck your beast.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Lee take your Caesar cut with you, Polenka, What does
it mean for the Laker competitiveness moving forward, and we
all pretty much said the same thing. Well, look at
the Dodgers, just that as the model and figure it's
probably gonna be same thing and pretty good.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
It couldn't be much worse. Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Most of the conversations centered around how much money Mark
Walter has been willing to and has spent with the
Dodgers this year three hundred and seventy two million dollars
one hundred and sixty five million bucks over the tax line.
Some tames won't dip into the luxury tax our guys
(17:11):
one hundred and sixty five million bucks into it. Sheer
cash can make a huge difference in baseball. In football,
look at the Eagles. No other team in football touches
the Eagles in cash spending.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
But there's more restrictions when it comes to the NFL
and the NBA than there are most definitely in baseball
that they're they're going to have to figure out how
to navigate.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And the Eagles have done that with a hard cap.
They cut monster checks for signing bonuses up front.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
The guy that got cut at the parade.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Right, that full back that got cut.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
No, No, the guy that got cut with the Oh yes,
jeff Louriy, No, Howie Roseman, Yes, GM. He got hit
with a full beer kid, that's right, and he bled.
He bled for the town.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
He bled, but he stood strong. It's like I can
take this, That's what he said. Yeah, I'm bleeding my
own blood. They cut monster checks up front. That way
they sidestep the cap because they can spread out the
signing and roster bonuses over the course of the contract.
And that's how you have the best offensive line and
the best defensive line in football. How you have a
(18:16):
quarterback that is on a top ten quarterback contract, yet
you can still supplement him with Aj Brown, Devonte Smith,
zach Ertz or Dennis Goddard, and then you can go
out and have the money to make Saquon Barkley the
highest paid running back in the league. They figured it out.
It is a combination of an owner with incredibly deep
pockets like Jeffrey Luriy net worth six billion dollars, but
(18:40):
you mentioned him. It's also the brilliance of Howie Roseman,
pretty much universally accepted as the best general manager in
all of football. Now that Ozzie Newsom has retired, he
doesn't miss on his draft picks. Last year, Cooper, de Jean, Quinnon,
Mitchell their first two picks starting secondary year before Jalen Carter,
Nolan Smith year before, Jordan Davis, Cam Jurgen's year before
(19:01):
Devonte Smith, Landon Dickerson, and Milton Williams. That is two
starting corners, two interior linemen, two interior defensive linemen, a
pass rusher, and an all pro receiver. And that's the
special sauce. You got to hit on your draft picks.
And when you're making trades like the one for aj
Brown or if you're signing free agents like Sakuon Barkley,
(19:23):
you have to hit on Those mistakes can be overcome.
They drafted Jalen Rager over Justin Jefferson, but their second
round pick was Jalen Hurts. You just can't have too
many of them. And flipping that back to the Dodgers,
that's what you notice Likes. It's more than just the
money they spend. They don't miss and when they do
they can overcome it. They can be patient. They can
(19:44):
let Tanner Scott four year, seventy two million, eighteen million
bucks per year work through a rough patch. No worries,
work through it. Now he's on the other side and
he's back to his dominant self. And then when Blake
trin In and Michael Kopek and Evan Phillips and Kirby
are all hurt, no worries, Alex Vesia will cover and
then Kirby Yates will be back and he'll cover for you.
(20:05):
They routinely the Dodgers crush it in free agency. Otani's
an easy one, right, I mean, he's worth double the
seven million bucks they gave him.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
It's three weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
We weren't saying on the same tune about a lot
of the moves they made this last offseason.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
It's all terrible, it's all bad.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
But they put their head down and now at least
on one of those contracts. I mean, look, Betts is
a bargain at thirty million per year, Freddie If that's
a bargain, Freddie Freeman at twenty seven is just downright
stealing compared to the rest of the league. Yamamoto looks
like a rotation anchor and ace for the next decade.
And then the secondary free agents, taoscar hernandez Hey Song Kim.
(20:43):
It was a trade, but you knew it was kind
of a free agent thing because his contract was going
to be up at the end of the year. Tommy
Edmund all been huge wins and other teams, and this
kind of goes back to our conversation with Don McLain
about Alex Caruso. Would have let Max Munsey go, Yeah,
be great to keep him, but twelve million bucks on
our roster. We're paying that guy like thirty million dollars
(21:07):
with tax penalties, So he just he's a twelve million
dollar player, not a thirty million dollar player, and we
got to cut him loose.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
But instead so the Lakers operate a little bit more
like a poverty franchise.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Kind of like the Max Munsey would have been, let
go twelve million bucks for all those strikeouts, the low average,
to get your thirty to forty homers. It's like, yeah,
just can't quite justify right in the tax check for that,
cause he's not twelve million bucks. He's twenty five million bucks.
But as we heard, the power is.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Worth it two and to the count. The stretch by Ferrari.
He kicks fires and Max swing's trails want deep left
center field. This ball heading back to the wall. This
ball is done. It's a Grim Slam.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Maxwell swing in a silver header, wants to score, and
the Dodgers now lead it.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Four to three. That's the first Grand Slam hit by
a Dodger this season.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Good stuff, Tim Nevertt. Maxwell's silver hammer was pounding nails
over the weekend. Two Doggers in that one game, Maxwell
and his silver hammer.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
He swings hits a drive tape Wright center way back.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
It does.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
He's done it again.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
Max Monthly with a home run, a three run shot.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Give it to me to the Dodgers have all put
this game wide.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
It is now eleven to three Monthly with seven RBIs today.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Yeah, with that silver hammer seven.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I thought we were gonna get to Stephen Nelson call.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
He was on tv AH with Dave, two of them
doing their dance together out there on the Spectrum Sports Net.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
I want to do my kind of dancing with a
great partner.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
And hey, Kirsten was on the desk. Okay, she was
still there on the desk. Dave on the field and
in the dugout. He had a conversation with Max Mounsey
after the game yesterday. It was incredibly compelling and that
allows the Dodgers to swallow Michael Conforto's disaster thus far
of a deal seventeen million bucks tanks for nooting.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
He remains a blemish.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yes, they can plan him on the bench while paying
them all that money because they draft well Dalton rushing,
Andy Pahz and that's there to balance it out. So
to the Lakers, this year, they have no number one
pick twenty seven, they got no number one pick twenty nine,
They got no number one pick. Okay, next season they
(23:35):
will have their first rounder. They have no cap space
for the immediate future. If Lebron is done after this season,
at least that's fifty two million bucks off the Ledger.
But you know how this is going to go. He's
going to add a year onto it. It's just a day.
He's gonna opt out. He's gonna do two more.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Why can't we get out from under the kids.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
It's gonna be like, hey, you know, I'm just gonna
opt out of this one. Maybe get you guys a
little bit of savings fifty two mil.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Let's hey, how.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
About this, guys, I'll opt out. Let's do a two year,
one hundred million dollar deal. I'll cut that number down
to fifty mil per year. Age forty one age forty
two season, who says no, right, you know, that's how
this is going to go. And that means the Lakers
likely aren't seeing anything until twenty twenty seven when it
comes time to have some more money freed up. So
(24:22):
as I kind of did that little mental exercise, and
I thought about what Mark Walter did the moment he
bought the Dodgers, that huge trade with Boston, the private
jet flying ag Rian Gonzales and company on the way
out here to announce, hey, we're going from a mid
tier spending team to number two in baseball, make the
playoffs right away. And they haven't looked back since. It's like, hey,
(24:45):
can he do that?
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Could he? Pie?
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Is there anything he could do that would be similar
to what he did with the Dodgers? And I think
the answer is kind of unfortunately and emphatic, no, save
one thing. And here it is the NBA Lebron. You
could convince Lebron to opt out and then not re
(25:07):
sign them.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
He can't keep Caruso because that train has left the state.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Sadly, he can't get Caruso back. But I think, you look,
he could say, oh yeah, there's nothing we can do
We're over the cap. We're ninety million bucks over the cap.
Lebron's locked in. They just signed a coach, Rob Polinka
was just extended. All these guys have four year deals.
I've got no money to maneuver. Even if I get
rid of them, I'm still sixty million over the cap.
But then you look and you see, after Oklahoma City
(25:33):
won last night, a new team has won the NBA
title every single year. We have not had a repeat
champion in the last seven years. There is no dominant
force out there. In the Western Conference. It was the Nuggets,
then it was the there were the Suns were in there,
the thunder are in there. In the East, obviously the
(25:53):
Celtics without Tatum. Next year with the Achilles, Haliburton with
the Achilles, Kevin Durant has moved to the Rocket. It's
it's a wide open mess.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
It's white ass open now.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Which leads me to think before you can just throw
your hands up and say what coaster? Then with the
lebron ps and then once he ops out, then we
can put our impress.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
So you think they can get rid of Lebron, Are
you trying to speaking into it? I'm saying that's all
I care about.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I'm saying, I think there is an opportunity for them
to look at the current landscape of the NBA and
how we have had the Bucks and the Nuggets and
the Thunder and all of these different teams winning one
title apiece. There is no there's no Kansas City Chiefs,
there's no Los Angeles Dodger. There's no buzzsaw out there
(26:39):
in the NBA right now that you could justify. Well,
if we can improve on the margins we've seen, you know,
We've seen the Indiana Pacers take the Oklahoma City Thunder
to a seven game series. We saw the Knicks knock
off the Celtics like that. The parody is incredible. And
if I don't have an old assad, I don't have
(27:00):
an old ass forty one year.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Old alb the truss around your neck.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Running up and down the court, padding stats and talking
about ring culture anchor.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Hook to the back of your Zekavarici's.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
You know, Lebron, I think it's best if we go
our separate ways.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
That's what I One day love may find you break
those hats that bind you.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So perhaps I wish we could break the change. It
would have been better. I think had the Pacers one
for for our grand plan here, like, wow, it's really
wide open that dude blue in the first quarter and
they still won the title.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Yeah. TJ McConnell brought him out.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
We gotta fa mean that little white guy with the
gray beard carried him to a title. We really got
to figure this thing out. But unfortunately the team that
was heavily favored to one ultimately won.
Speaker 4 (27:48):
So the moral of the story is how much can
Walter do? But he can get rid of the ramses?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
I think so you look at what what did we hear?
A secret sauce of Andrew Freeman is best scout. He's
the best scout baseball. Nobody sees talent like him. And
I don't know if we say the same thing about
Rob Polinka.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
No, no, we don't.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
You know what we say it's up with those zippers
on your leftard jacket.
Speaker 4 (28:14):

he really take that volume of They already are very busy.

shows to throw them off. But if he does, we
won't get radio like this hashtag Marconi. Look man. Wow, man,
it was a real thing that Kate's came with today.
He's upset that he had this Kik gold and he
(33:15):
let it. He gave it away for free. He spread
his legs, and dirty people like Fred labored over him
and then left the money on the dresser and walked out,
and Kate just was in the fetal position holding the sheet,
you know, close to his face. Tim steels. Fred's topics
