Speaker 4 (01:35):
Gonna be some weird scheduling this week, but we're on
from three to six today and tomorrow and you can
worry about the rest as the rest comes. But we
really do appreciate everybody, every single person, from all the
way back to the Rock and Bruise in El Segundo
(01:56):
to the vans in Costa Mesa. Speaking of scheduling, we
had a wacky kind of schedule, a backloaded Petrosen Money
Summer Tour. It was a really hot day on Friday,
but it was a really gratifying show. We had some
really magic summer tour events and we thank everybody, all
(02:17):
of the listeners of course our sponsors, but all of
the listeners for coming out and being part of the community.
It truly was a special time. And now it's time
for the final hour. Fun fans, it's fun effect, it's
the Yeah, We're three fun fans brought to you by
Concordia University IRVINES Masters in Coaching and Athletics Administration Program.
(02:40):
It's a fact over five thousand coaches and administrators have
graduated from their master's program. Find out more at CUI
dot EEDU slash Coaching.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
H Well, were out there on Friday, A set it
p at Vans. No brand is associated with skateboarding as
much as Van.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
So fun fact.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Did you know the earlier prototypes showed up in the
late fifties, the famous bun board in Hermosa in fifty seven,
roller Derby in fifty nine. But it was Venice Beach
lifeguard Larry Stevenson and his Macaha brand in nineteen sixty
three that changed skateboarding forever. Advanced double action, adjustable trucks,
(03:20):
clay wheels. He called it a surf skate and in
nineteen sixty three they were ten dollars and ninety five
cents shipping included. How much ten dollars ninety five cents
shipping included? You can't get a big mac meal for
(03:41):
ten dollars twenty five cents now.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
But there's a great bundle. I don't know if you're aware.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I believe it's eighteen dollars, and I believe it is.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Like enough to destroy you that day.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I think it's two Big Macs twenty nuggets. And is
it two orders.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
Of fries or it's a good order.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah, I didn't know if the person is sending it
to us, was like, hey, can you believe how expensive
this is or can you believe this deal exists?
Speaker 4 (04:07):
I think it was. This is a great deal.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
You choose, Matt, you choose called check bundle.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
I choose the ladder. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Actually it was no drinks. It was two Big Mac sandwiches,
two medium from dry dry throat, twenty piece chickenc nuggets.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You can add a beverage for more of them.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
There you go. Nice. It's time for quickets. Everybody ms quickets?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Nigga quick y'all?
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Oh yeah. The Dodgers they staved off the Panic Brothers
with a win yesterday seventy four and fifty nine back
home tonight versus the Rats and Michihan and Hunter Green
Mounds the Mound, respectively. The Dodgers tied with the Padres
atop the nl West, thirty one games out from the end.
(04:55):
The Reds are only one and a half back of
the Mets for the fire NL wildcard spot. So they
are battling and the Padres are up in Seattle.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Battling and a sea of buddy situation with the Dodgers
Pee as Buddy Kennedy is being DFA, but it's for
a very good reason.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Keith k Hernandez is ersatal player for the Dodgers, as
we all know, important to have down to stretching in
the playoffs. For he is known as Clutch. The Angels
are sixty one and sixty nine. They're in Texas right
now taking on the Rangers. They're pretty much out of
(05:36):
the playoff race, eight and a half back in the
wild card in the AL. It would take a miracle
comeback for them to make the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
But they'll always have two Wednesdays ago, Pee, they will.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Always have when they beat the Dodge, You're right.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Then when they beat the Dodgers for the sweep that was,
you know, with their big bad gazilleillion dollar payroll, They'll
always have August thirteenth.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Off the field, the Angels manager Ron Washington visited his
team in Texas today before the game, first time since
he underwent heart surgery. He said he quit smoking since
his heart surgery, recovering nicely and plans to be back
in Anaheim in September to watch the Angels down the stretch,
and a scheduled to return to the bench next year.
So that is good news.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
That's great news.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
More education.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I mean, look, it's great. You definitely don't want to
be smoking. But I mean, Ron's got to be what
almost seventy Like Ron, he is not a young man.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
No, neither was Leland.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I think it right, I mean I think you just
you go the Jim Leland route and I'm just like, yeah,
he's seventy three like Matt.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
You know that you should talk to him. I don't know. Yeah,
I don't smoke anymore. Tomorrow is cutting down day around
the Lady three. We'll talk about the Chargers in the
next segment. The Rosters have to get to fifty three
players by one o'clock tomorrow Pacific time. I don't know
if there are any big surprises expected with the Chargers.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I think they're gonna do some shopping, probably keep an
eye on offensive lineman getting cut. Their backup offensive line
group was it was a struggle. It was a real
struggle against the Rams. And the forty nine ers, So
I would suspect, you see guys like Lyle Collins and
Kenyon Green out there, maybe make a trade for someone
like an Evan Neil. But I think that's probably the
(07:33):
only surprise I would although cam Aker's got cut by
the Saints, you know, the former Rams second round pick,
So there's always guys that become available, and I would
suspect that that's something they'll keep an eye on.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Off the field, Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was spotted by
TMZ yesterday with his female friend Madison Beer, walking to
a friend's house in Redondo Beach. How about that right?
The couple was spotted with a bottle of wine and
a box that said Rummy cub Oh oh, I don't
(08:07):
know what that is.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
The kids play it classic title. They're they're a board
game and wine couple.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Pee. I wonder if they were listening to kid Coody.
Uh the Rams left tackle Alaric.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
The only reason I know that is because my daughter
Parker was like, did you see Justin Herbert and Madison Beer?
I said no, I didn't see it. Look look look
what they have. It's like, what do they have? Rummy Cube?
Speaker 4 (08:34):
What is that?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Oh, you know what Rummy Cube is?
Speaker 4 (08:36):
No, I don't. What is it?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Oh, it's the best tile game ever.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
So we're gonna drink wine and play this game on
the beach here in Redondo, Sweet uh Rams left tackle
Alaric Jackson, who's dealing with blood clots in his lower leg,
is expected to return to practice next week. Here's Sean McVay.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
You know, he's going to partake in next Monday's practice,
on Wednesday and Thursday, and then he'll just do the
jog through stuff on Friday.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
So it's really cool.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
I think we've got a good plan in place. Again,
that is something you know, whether you talk about Matthew's
back or the thing with Alaric, you know that I
certainly have never dealt with before. So I think that demands,
you know, flexibility.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
But we feel really good.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
I mean, he has put so much work in. I
think he's handled it like a total stud and I'm
really happy for him that all things are pointing to
him being ready to go and being able to manage
this all right.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
He's been taking part in individual jit drills jog throws,
not participated in team drills. Similar situation in twenty twenty two,
where he had to sit out the final nine games
of the season.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Davil Clutch, Yeah, that's not good.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Raiders wide receiver Jacoby Meyers. This requested to trade for
what he wants to be back with his dad, Jacoby.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
And Meyers let about his dad, and he's Jacoby, his
dad is and and they're both.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Myers eighty seven catches for ony twenty seven yards and
four touchdowns last season. He's been seeking a contract extent.
This isn't as big as the Michael Parson's situation or.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
You see Michael Parsons over the weekend.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
By the way, the Cowboys finally lay out, oh yeah,
eating nachos, walking in, laying out on the traders table,
he was pulling the Chris Cayman.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Seeing that kind of lackadaisical efforts.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
Since Chris Caman, they asked Jerry Jones's son, like, what
are you guys gonna do about this?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Well, we're gonna talk to him.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Well, we're gonna talk to him the next day or so.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Pan down to the field and he's like, we're.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Gonna have a talk. We're gonna say what we need
to say.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Sleep on the freaking equipment tank.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Not a lot of buzz in town over college football.
USC hosts Missouri State on Saturday. We'll talk about it
when it's over.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
Four thirty, kickoff at the coliseum. Guys, Big ten Network,
Let's go fight.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
On a Utah Saturday night at the Rose Bowl.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Nobody cares. Nobody cares. I care, Nobody cares. I care
more about this than the blood clod, the ram guy whatever.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Nobody cares about UCLA. That brand is dead. Matt dead
as a door nail dead. Mc cronin will join us tomorrow.
We love Mick. He transcends the UCLA brand. It's the
mc cronin brand.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Well, the UCLA hoops brand is a good brand.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Eah whatever boring.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
According to front Off of Sports, the WNBA players Union,
now this is something that is reading a chimper.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
I can't wait to figure see how you figure this
one out.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
They're likely unlikely to agree to a new CBA by
the October thirty first deadline. An extension deadline would have
to happen to avoid immediate work stoppage because neither side
are close on a new CBA.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
We want to be paid more. We're still being subsidized
by the NBA. It seems like we're really popular. Well
one player is, and outside of that, we don't have
a whole lot going. Okay, they're expanding. We got the
Valkyries up there in uh San Francisco. Now, yeah, they're
being subsidized by the Warriors. Wow. Fair is fair and
(12:10):
we deserve a wage.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Looks like there's gonna be a lockout.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Well you know what that means.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
No, I don't know. Work stop at your lockout. I
mean those are different things.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
There's a different opinion lockout.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
There's a tick count no one, what's gonna give it?
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Fritch counts my money.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Trapwn.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
It's incredibly insensitive to me. I was trying to rhyme
something with guys and I said wives. That's not okay.
I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
A lot of them are married.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, wasn't watch other No, I didn't say that.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Oh god, I didn't either. I didn't need it.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
Well, the lockhout officially start until Plaski writes this big
calm about the w NBA and how this is bad,
And there's a graphic of locks put together in front
of a building, chaining out the women players.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Like a little girl, a little girl trying to get
in wearing Clark.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Jersey just wants to play.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
All right, We'll be back in a moment with the
top story of the day. We're talking charges.

Very easy to do and it's free. Right now, it's
time with the top story of the day. Top story
of it.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Probably had davon last hour plenty of Dodger coverage. We
got a game tonight, as you mentioned, p against the Reds.
So with the Dodgers having scored two runs in two
days before yesterday's wildly entertaining, did you see show Hey
talk to that Padre fan in the front realm affair.
Wasn't that great?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I thought he didn't speak English. Yeah, I'll just.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Oh, he had a whole conversation with him. He found
out the guy's got two kids. One's going to private,
one public. Just a hell of a conversation there. I
guess day thought the guy was a little annoying, and
it just shows the class of show Hey that he
was able to put by say by guns. So, with
all that shoved to the side, p I'll go with
this A story in three parts, some muscly intrigue and
(14:54):
easdropping on that muscly intrigue, a story of self deprecation,
and as we are on the eve, a reminder that
hundreds of dreams, like the thousands of dreams from earlier
this year, are going to be shattered sadly in the
next twenty four hours. If you are fortunate enough to
(15:17):
have played high school football at a very high level,
you're the best player on your team, maybe even in
your league, maybe one of the best in the state.
You get a scholarship to a Division one school.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Great.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Maybe some people are overwhelmed by the jumping competition and
that's where it ends. Others play well enough to have
thoughts of playing professionally. Maybe it's production, maybe it's traits.
The NFL is always going to turn over every rock
and try to find players. About three hundred of them
get invited to the combine. When that invite doesn't come,
pretty big hit to the dream. When you still don't
(15:51):
get drafted, Even bigger hit to the dream if you
don't get the undrafted free agent call to be part
of a ninety man roster mammoth, almost impossible to overcome.
Hit to the dream. Got to start thinking UFL. At
least there's some avenues, you know, UFL, CFL. Couple of
those paths can produce a bit of time in the NFL.
(16:15):
And that's the thousands of people we're talking about. But
then there is this group today, yesterday, maybe is cuts
begin to show up today. It's a gut wrenching twenty
four hours because you're so freaking close. We just had
DJ ujungalalay on on Friday or Thursday, number one recruit
(16:37):
in the nation. And as DJ put it when we
were on the call Saturday, if you Daniel Jeremiah, a
lot of DJs here. If you asked anyone familiar with
that big three, and you know it well in southern California, peek,
as you were doing high school football, you would do
Ujungalila one, Bryce Young, two, CJ Stroud three is you
(17:00):
would rank those three, and of course all of them.
CJ Straud Ohio State, Bryce Young, Alabama, DJ Clemson and
look now, CJ a number two overall pick, has been
to the Pro Bowl, has been at the playoffs. Bryce
Young a number one pick that was benched for Andy
Dilton for a little while, and DJ needed a local
tryout to make a ninety man roster for the Chargers
(17:21):
as his only option. And do his credit, he's played
well and I am certain that he is a lock
for the Chargers practice squad, and that's a big accomplishment
for him. You know, you stick around, you continue to
learn under Justin Herbert and Trey Lance.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
You're on a roster.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
You're on a roster.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
You're buzzing around a roster. You belong to somebody.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Exactly you can get him the building. Are you making millions? No,
but you're making you know, seventeen twenty grand a week
learning under harbaughn Greg Roman and Shane Day. And then
next year, if it works out, probably the way the
Chargers would draw it up, that Trey Lance ends up
getting a big contract as a bridge quarterback, just like
Baker Mayfield did, just like Sam Darnold did. And now
with another year of working some things out, maybe DJ
(18:07):
is battling to be the number two guy. And I
think a lot of people can maybe see that pass Saturday.
He made some really great high level throws that TD
to the tight end to Ronde Gadst and that's starting
NFL quarterback throw on the move. Tight coverage dropped it
to a tight end with enough touch but enough power
to get it over the linebackers. Beautiful had an out
(18:27):
to Campbell a series later, the same under pressure offensive
line did him no favors had to cut it loose
when his wide receiver was still two steps away from
even getting into his break through with anticipation perfectly between
the numbers to pick up a first down, and when
you look at that compared to his final season of
tape four touchdowns, six interceptions, fifty percent completion rate at
(18:50):
Florida State, which was on fire for everybody that was
there at that time, and how badly it unraveled. Not
promising for your NFL prospects, but head down, we had
a wonderful conversation with him on Thursday. Sounded like he
was in a great place mentally, and he made it.
It was great, exact, Yes, it was unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
He made it work.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
You look at some other guys on the roster p
in the case of Stevo Klotz, Luke Grimm, guys with
great college production. Team captains Josh Kaltenberger, the center from Michigan,
Corey Stewart, left tackle from Purdue, t Rydwards defensive tackle
from Illinois. They're hoping that sixteen spots on the practice squad,
maybe one of them have their name on it. If
(19:30):
you're on it, like we said, you're not making millions,
but you're still getting paid handsomely to play this game,
to continue to chase your dream. You're still relevant, you
still get the practice. You could be called up. Maybe
you're being watched by other teams. Who might want to
grab you and put you on their active roster for
a week or two. You're one of the twenty that
is not told you can't stick around and that it's
(19:52):
maybe time to call it, And those are the tough ones.
It's thirty two teams, it's six hundred and forty players,
because you can only keep seventy really sixty nine technically,
so you'd be talking about six hundred and seventy two
players that will be trying to figure out if the
NFL in fact is their future. So not easy. Wish
(20:15):
them all well, competed their tails off. May there be
jobs for all of them somewhere down the line. Saturday
was up at Levi Stadium and the eavesdropping port of
the part of the top story here. Pe Lorenzo O'Neil
is just as good of a guy as there is.
And I happen to be on the field talking to
(20:35):
Nick Hardwick when Lorenzo walked onto the field. For those
that don't know, Nick, longtime starting center for the Chargers.
Now they're offensive line assistant coach, assistant offensive line coach,
and I.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Can't believe he did that to the people of San Diego.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I just Nick God just taking a job. Guys just
making a paycheck here, And as all three of us
were talking for whatever reason, I I deposit the question, Hey,
you two guys wrestle right now, because they're both still
in incredible shape. What happens? And for those that don't know,
(21:09):
Nick was a walk on at Purdue. He was the
Indiana State champion, number one wrestler in the state, all
Big ten wrestler home of Iowa, Wisconsin. I mean Big
ten is where you go to wrestle wrestling powerhouses. Lorenzo
O'Neil was a two time All American in high school.
He was forty two and zero twenty five pins, held
(21:30):
the state record. I think he still holds the California
state record for the fastest pin and was named the
California State Athlete of the Year and became an All
American at Fresno State, finished seventh in the NCAA Championship
A tourney. Yeah, he's in the ring of honor big time.
And like as great a football player, he was a
(21:50):
better wrestler. So when I bring it up as just
you know, me being an idiot and one hundred and
fifty pound weekly, they start eyeballing each other for like
a good five seconds trying to figure this out.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
You're like Mills Lane all swollen their mat don't lie.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
And Nick is you know, they're both humble because they're
freaking tough as hell, so they can be humble. I
was like, I don't know, a manaze in good shape
and he's got all that length, and Nick's like, I
don't know, you got a trunk, he got some leverage,
and then all of a sudden it shifts. Nick Hardwick's like, well,
you know, I feel pretty good low. I've been putting
up four or five again. I feel good about that.
(22:28):
I was like, yeah, you know, this is this is
a legitimate conversation because yeah, you know, stop doing that, Nick,
I'm just doing two twenty five thirty reps five sets.
That's kind of what I've been up to. I'm like, said, right,
twenty five thirty reps for five sets, and Nick's climbing
under four hundred and five pounds. They then agree, I
believe to settle it by saying, well, you know what,
you start the match stand up. Nick's probably got the advantage,
(22:50):
but I think we get to the ground whether I'm
in top or bottom I feel like I got that
advantage there, and they were like, okay, we'll agree with that.
So that's what you get to witness.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
It sounds very homo erotic. It was I was.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
I was. I was quite intrigued, perhaps physically. Finally pee
your length?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Are you a top or a bottom? Where do you.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Finally?
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Pete?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Perhaps one of the more interesting situations I've ever found
myself in in a game. So just to set the scene,
I do not do any work like for the for
the September fifth game against the Chiefs, I will do
as much work on the Chiefs as I will the
Chargers preseason. I do nothing on the Chargers opponent. It's
(23:36):
all about this roster. Who do we need to get
to know? Which undrafted free agents are raising their hand,
what veterans have they signed?
Speaker 4 (23:43):
All that. That's all you do.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
The the other team, I put their name, their number.
If there's something interesting that really jumps out, that'll get included.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
But that's it.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
No stats, nothing So with this with the show on Friday,
I pushed on my prep up a day to get ready,
so I build you know what I need on Wednesday,
set it aside, fly up there, get to the game
and had a chat with Gus Bradley, one of my
favorite people that I've ever been around, the longtime DC
(24:15):
of the Chargers. He's now an assistant d assistant head
coach for Kyle Shanahan. His son is starting, So I
was talking to him for a while about Carter and
how he's doing, and that was kind of my quarterback focus.
So I was just kind of focused on that. Well,
Carter rolls an ankle early and the backup comes in
and so here comes number four trotting out Nate Sudfeld
Indiana eight years. And here's a couple of calls I
(24:38):
have of Nate Sudfeld trying to keep it balanced and
entertaining empty for Sudfeld, he's got time middle of the field,
tipped at the line of scrimmage and incomplete. So outcomes
the punning unit and off to Wilson. Now it's a
keeper for Sudfeld, and now he's got a lane. Sudfeld
steps out of bounds inside the forty to the Charger
thirty nine right sideline, william sitting pursue and that's a
(25:01):
nice run by Sudfeld. Eighth year player out of Indiana. Yeah,
Williamson took a good angle. It just didn't get him
on the ground. Sudfeld in motion, new set of downs,
looking to pass, looking right, throwing right on the slant
and connects the junior Bergen for the first down game
of eleven. Sudfeld under center, hands to Wilson, cuts back
(25:23):
middle Hito the end zone, touchdown, forty nine ers.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
I thought it was pretty good, right, I mean it
sounded serviceable. Sure.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
So right, here's the thing, pee, Nate Sudfeld isn't on
the forty nine ers.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Oh he's not now.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Nate Sutfeld was on their game notes, number four. Nate Sudfeld,
eighth season out of Indiana. Nate Sudfeld was on the
flip card that was waiting in front of me. The
flipcart is what the team leaves for the broadcast and
all the people in the press, so you can identify
who's what number.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
So it was a quarterback that didn't exist.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
So about the fourth quarter, who was it? Turns out
it was born in Waco, Wisconsin. Quarterback from twenty twenty three,
SMU twenty twenty one to twenty twenty two, Oklahoma twenty
eighteen to twenty twenty. You very well may have called
one of his games p it was Tanner Mordecai. Oh,
(26:23):
I don't know the Tanner Mordecai. Nate Sudfeld was cut
on Friday, like the Falcon and Royal tenen Bolls like Mordecott.
Nate sudfeldt was cut on Friday while we were doing
our final tour stop of our twenty twenty five PMS
Summer tour, and they gave his number to another guy,
the exact same number to Mordecai who's wearing number four,
(26:48):
And it says Nate Sudfeld on the flip card, Nate
Sudfeld on all of my notes, and here I as
you heard when he makes and I'm like, man, Nate
sudfalg can kind of move out there. And yeah, did
not figure it out out until the fourth quarter, maybe
five minutes left in the game.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Nobody cared, right, so you just had to figure it
out on your own. The oldbody came in there and said, hey,
that guy's not real.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Nobody, not a single per my My spotter was apologizing profusely,
like what the well, how are you supposed to know?
I mean, it's like we've got you've got a flip
card I've got my board everything, says Sudfeld. He was
really upset with himself for not having picked it up.
We're on the eighth floor, is where the press box is,
so it's not like we're close to the action and
(27:32):
can read the names on the bad. I guess if
I really focused in, I could have figured out that
it wasn't sudfeled. But yeah, at least I would say
a good twenty to twenty five plays and three and
a half quarters of short change and old Tanner Mordecai
of his glory on KFI AM six forty in a
(27:53):
preseason contest on a Saturday evening.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Well, you know, there could have been four at least
just three, Yes, there was just that.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
And then and then I find the Tanner Mordecai page
on the San Francisco forty nine er website and it
says he's number fourteen, which he was not. So it's like, oh,
at least you guys are up to speed to where's
the sid nowhere to be found.

time for the Dead Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Greatest opening line to a second paragraph of a Wikipedia
biography I ever done, did read, and that is why
we have today's dead Guy Birthday to day. Two hundred
and thirty two is what John Neil would have been.
Born in Portland, Maine, died in Portland, Maine. American writer, critic, editor, lecturer, activist.
(31:49):
And here's that line that caught my attention. Pe the
first American author to use natural addiction and a pioneer
of colloquialism. Neil is the first to use the phrase
son of a bitch.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
In a work Give it to Me Again, Jack Lynn,
in a work of US fiction, here is the line.
The book seventy six from eighteen twenty three, a historical
fiction novel set during the American Revolutionary War, the protagonist
Jonathan Odley, recounts a battle scene in which he is
(32:35):
mounted on a horse quote, I wheeled made a dead
set at the son of a bitch in my rear,
unhorsed him and actually broke through the line. That's hard guy.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
John Neil.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Born in Portland. His dad died a month after he
was born. His mother, incredibly smart, got after it, made
up the lost family income by establishing her own school,
renting rooms in their home to borders. He reduced his
mother's financial burden. Neil left school and home at the
age of twelve for a full time employment all Right
aberdasher and dry goods salesman. He traveled through Maine as
(33:12):
an itinerant, penmanship instructor, a watercolor teacher, a miniature portrait artist.
Moved to Boston at twenty, became very good friends with
John Pierpont. They made big profits smuggling contraband British dry
goods between Boston, New York City and Baltimore. Went so
well in Baltimore he moved there, was hired as a
writer for The Portico. And that's kind of where this
(33:35):
I guess what became his life's work and his career
of record. That's where it was born. The Portico contributed poems, essays,
he was a literary critic, he wrote, He wrote his
first book, then play, became the country's first daily columnist,
made a bunch of money, and he moved to London.
He wanted to supplant Washington Irving as America's literary voice.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
That's gonna be tough, you know. It was the guy
that put the knicks in New York Knicks.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
It was tough. So when that didn't happen, Inspired by
athletics abroad, he opened He moved back to his hometown
at Portland, Maine, opened the first gymnasium. He taught boxing,
he talked fencing. He urged Thomas Jefferson to open a
gymnastics school at the University of Virginia, and then he
founded the Yankee magazine, published a bunch more novels, and
(34:22):
at a time when many American writers copied eurostyles, Neil
was the one who encouraged originality and realism. He supported
Edgar Allan Poe Walt Whitman was one of the first
critics to praise their works. He was also a strong
advocate for social change. He was a big proponent of
women's rights, including the right to vote long before that
was popular, abolition of slavery as well. He worked as
(34:45):
an editor of Public Speaker, pushed for justice for progress.
Died in eighteen seventy six at the age of eighty two,
and again the most important part of his history quote,
I wheeled, made a dead set at the of a
bitch in my rear, unhorsed him and actually broke through
the line.
Speaker 4 (35:05):
Johnny pretty strong. I mean I never heard about him, right,
They sent a bitch. We will do Scottish news here, Yes,
Scottish news.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
It's Scholtish news news. It is Scoltish. What's your wished?
Speaker 4 (35:23):

Today. We celebrate this guy when we can.
Speaker 7 (35:34):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
He has interacted with us in social media. Seems like
a pretty nice guy. Stuart Murdoch, the lead singer of
Belle and Sebastian, born in Clarkson, Scotland, went to the
University of Glasgow. The ones from the fourteen hundreds don't.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Have mascots, man, And that's a damn shame, you know.
Speaker 4 (35:59):
That's that's so old.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
That's a damn shame.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
He was in a piano He was a piano player
in a band.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
What's your mascot? It's a piece of cork.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Damn, it's this chair leg.
Speaker 3 (36:15):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (36:16):
He was in a band. He was a DJ, and
in his early twenties he was diagnosed with the very
mysterious chronic fatigue syndrome, spent a lot of time alone,
couldn't work, and from that he became a songwriter. By
nineteen ninety five, after a few rough years, he started
(36:39):
to recover and formed an indie rock band or indie
pop called The Balanced Sebastian, named for a nineteen sixty
five TV series for kids, and they started banging out albums.
They got a warm reception for their first album, Tiger Milk,
which is fabulous for a debut album, and then the
(37:01):
sophomore effort, which is widely considered their masterpiece, is if
You're Feeling Sinister, named by Spin as a top one
hundred album between eighty five and two thousand and five.
Not bad for a little Scottish outfit. Nineteen ninety eight,
The Boy with the Arab Strap is another great album.
(37:23):
They make really good albums. There are twelve of them. Twelve, yeah,
there's twelve now. The last one was twenty twenty three.
Isabelle Campbell, who was in the band with him, which
he when he started went solo a long time ago,
but he has kept it going and he's a pretty
(37:45):
interesting guy. He ran the Glasgow Marathon in nineteen eighty
six in under three hours. Damn.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
He wasn't sure, just saying like he ran the marathon.
I'm like, okay, you ran the marathon two fifty seven.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
That's what JP. Howse I demanded of you?
Speaker 2 (38:01):
Yeah? Sorry, I couldn't deliver usc track athlete.
Speaker 4 (38:05):
He was an extra in Train Spotting. He's a Mets
fan and loves Mike Piazza like Dave, and he wrote
a song called Piazza New York Catcher, which is on
Dear Catastrophe Waitress that album. He made a musical movie
(38:27):
maybe like eight years ago called God Helped the Girl
and then has a subsequent album. He's written a couple
of books. He's color blind, and he's married to Marisa
Privitera for about eighteen years and he has two kids.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Is she famous?
Speaker 4 (38:51):
I don't know. I saw a picture. I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (38:53):
It's just like Instagram model, like one of those big
ass Instagram models. No, he's married to a big ass
Instagram model.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
It would be pretty funny, right, Well, a lot for
years I thought he was a gay guy. Yeah, so
did I. That's why I said he was married. I
was like, what, yeah, And uh, that's the weirdest thing.
Like he's a he's a church goer, and didn't he
date some indie rock chick. He dated the girl and
the girl from a camera obscurity. That's right, right, Tracy
(39:30):
Ann Campbell.
Speaker 7 (39:30):
Right.
Speaker 4 (39:32):
But Marissa Privitera Murdoch is a Scottish chick who uh,
I don't know. She does something. There's pretty of people
who wall she does photography. She's a photographer, famous photographer. Yeah,
she seems like a lovelyad. She takes the pictures of
the big APAs. He didn't come out like Piazza had to.
(39:52):
He did come out and said, sadly, I am not gay.
I am I am straight to the point of boredom.
I believe this was his quote.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Actually I haven't right here.
Speaker 4 (40:02):
I believe.
Speaker 7 (40:05):
Yeah, I'm not gay.
Speaker 3 (40:06):

Speaker 2 (02:49):
H Well, were out there on Friday, A set it
p at Vans. No brand is associated with skateboarding as
much as Van.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
So fun fact.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Did you know the earlier prototypes showed up in the
late fifties, the famous bun board in Hermosa in fifty seven,
roller Derby in fifty nine. But it was Venice Beach
lifeguard Larry Stevenson and his Macaha brand in nineteen sixty
three that changed skateboarding forever. Advanced double action, adjustable trucks,
(03:20):
clay wheels. He called it a surf skate and in
nineteen sixty three they were ten dollars and ninety five
cents shipping included. How much ten dollars ninety five cents
shipping included? You can't get a big mac meal for
(03:41):
ten dollars twenty five cents now.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
But there's a great bundle. I don't know if you're aware.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I believe it's eighteen dollars, and I believe it is.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Like enough to destroy you that day.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I think it's two Big Macs twenty nuggets. And is
it two orders.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
Of fries or it's a good order.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah, I didn't know if the person is sending it
to us, was like, hey, can you believe how expensive
this is or can you believe this deal exists?
Speaker 4 (04:07):
I think it was. This is a great deal.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
You choose, Matt, you choose called check bundle.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
I choose the ladder. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Actually it was no drinks. It was two Big Mac sandwiches,
two medium from dry dry throat, twenty piece chickenc nuggets.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You can add a beverage for more of them.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
There you go. Nice. It's time for quickets. Everybody ms quickets?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Nigga quick y'all?
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Oh yeah. The Dodgers they staved off the Panic Brothers
with a win yesterday seventy four and fifty nine back
home tonight versus the Rats and Michihan and Hunter Green
Mounds the Mound, respectively. The Dodgers tied with the Padres
atop the nl West, thirty one games out from the end.
(04:55):
The Reds are only one and a half back of
the Mets for the fire NL wildcard spot. So they
are battling and the Padres are up in Seattle.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Battling and a sea of buddy situation with the Dodgers
Pee as Buddy Kennedy is being DFA, but it's for
a very good reason.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Keith k Hernandez is ersatal player for the Dodgers, as
we all know, important to have down to stretching in
the playoffs. For he is known as Clutch. The Angels
are sixty one and sixty nine. They're in Texas right
now taking on the Rangers. They're pretty much out of
(05:36):
the playoff race, eight and a half back in the
wild card in the AL. It would take a miracle
comeback for them to make the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
But they'll always have two Wednesdays ago, Pee, they will.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Always have when they beat the Dodge, You're right.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Then when they beat the Dodgers for the sweep that was,
you know, with their big bad gazilleillion dollar payroll, They'll
always have August thirteenth.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Off the field, the Angels manager Ron Washington visited his
team in Texas today before the game, first time since
he underwent heart surgery. He said he quit smoking since
his heart surgery, recovering nicely and plans to be back
in Anaheim in September to watch the Angels down the stretch,
and a scheduled to return to the bench next year.
So that is good news.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
That's great news.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
More education.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I mean, look, it's great. You definitely don't want to
be smoking. But I mean, Ron's got to be what
almost seventy Like Ron, he is not a young man.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
No, neither was Leland.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I think it right, I mean I think you just
you go the Jim Leland route and I'm just like, yeah,
he's seventy three like Matt.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
You know that you should talk to him. I don't know. Yeah,
I don't smoke anymore. Tomorrow is cutting down day around
the Lady three. We'll talk about the Chargers in the
next segment. The Rosters have to get to fifty three
players by one o'clock tomorrow Pacific time. I don't know
if there are any big surprises expected with the Chargers.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I think they're gonna do some shopping, probably keep an
eye on offensive lineman getting cut. Their backup offensive line
group was it was a struggle. It was a real
struggle against the Rams. And the forty nine ers, So
I would suspect, you see guys like Lyle Collins and
Kenyon Green out there, maybe make a trade for someone
like an Evan Neil. But I think that's probably the
(07:33):
only surprise I would although cam Aker's got cut by
the Saints, you know, the former Rams second round pick,
So there's always guys that become available, and I would
suspect that that's something they'll keep an eye on.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Off the field, Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was spotted by
TMZ yesterday with his female friend Madison Beer, walking to
a friend's house in Redondo Beach. How about that right?
The couple was spotted with a bottle of wine and
a box that said Rummy cub Oh oh, I don't
(08:07):
know what that is.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
The kids play it classic title. They're they're a board
game and wine couple.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Pee. I wonder if they were listening to kid Coody.
Uh the Rams left tackle Alaric.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
The only reason I know that is because my daughter
Parker was like, did you see Justin Herbert and Madison Beer?
I said no, I didn't see it. Look look look
what they have. It's like, what do they have? Rummy Cube?
Speaker 4 (08:34):
What is that?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Oh, you know what Rummy Cube is?
Speaker 4 (08:36):
No, I don't. What is it?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Oh, it's the best tile game ever.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
So we're gonna drink wine and play this game on
the beach here in Redondo, Sweet uh Rams left tackle
Alaric Jackson, who's dealing with blood clots in his lower leg,
is expected to return to practice next week. Here's Sean McVay.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
You know, he's going to partake in next Monday's practice,
on Wednesday and Thursday, and then he'll just do the
jog through stuff on Friday.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
So it's really cool.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
I think we've got a good plan in place. Again,
that is something you know, whether you talk about Matthew's
back or the thing with Alaric, you know that I
certainly have never dealt with before. So I think that demands,
you know, flexibility.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
But we feel really good.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
I mean, he has put so much work in. I
think he's handled it like a total stud and I'm
really happy for him that all things are pointing to
him being ready to go and being able to manage
this all right.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
He's been taking part in individual jit drills jog throws,
not participated in team drills. Similar situation in twenty twenty two,
where he had to sit out the final nine games
of the season.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Davil Clutch, Yeah, that's not good.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Raiders wide receiver Jacoby Meyers. This requested to trade for
what he wants to be back with his dad, Jacoby.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
And Meyers let about his dad, and he's Jacoby, his
dad is and and they're both.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Myers eighty seven catches for ony twenty seven yards and
four touchdowns last season. He's been seeking a contract extent.
This isn't as big as the Michael Parson's situation or.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
You see Michael Parsons over the weekend.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
By the way, the Cowboys finally lay out, oh yeah,
eating nachos, walking in, laying out on the traders table,
he was pulling the Chris Cayman.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Seeing that kind of lackadaisical efforts.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
Since Chris Caman, they asked Jerry Jones's son, like, what
are you guys gonna do about this?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Well, we're gonna talk to him.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Well, we're gonna talk to him the next day or so.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Pan down to the field and he's like, we're.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Gonna have a talk. We're gonna say what we need
to say.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Sleep on the freaking equipment tank.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Not a lot of buzz in town over college football.
USC hosts Missouri State on Saturday. We'll talk about it
when it's over.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
Four thirty, kickoff at the coliseum. Guys, Big ten Network,
Let's go fight.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
On a Utah Saturday night at the Rose Bowl.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Nobody cares. Nobody cares. I care, Nobody cares. I care
more about this than the blood clod, the ram guy whatever.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Nobody cares about UCLA. That brand is dead. Matt dead
as a door nail dead. Mc cronin will join us tomorrow.
We love Mick. He transcends the UCLA brand. It's the
mc cronin brand.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Well, the UCLA hoops brand is a good brand.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Eah whatever boring.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
According to front Off of Sports, the WNBA players Union,
now this is something that is reading a chimper.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
I can't wait to figure see how you figure this
one out.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
They're likely unlikely to agree to a new CBA by
the October thirty first deadline. An extension deadline would have
to happen to avoid immediate work stoppage because neither side
are close on a new CBA.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
We want to be paid more. We're still being subsidized
by the NBA. It seems like we're really popular. Well
one player is, and outside of that, we don't have
a whole lot going. Okay, they're expanding. We got the
Valkyries up there in uh San Francisco. Now, yeah, they're
being subsidized by the Warriors. Wow. Fair is fair and
(12:10):
we deserve a wage.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Looks like there's gonna be a lockout.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Well you know what that means.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
No, I don't know. Work stop at your lockout. I
mean those are different things.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
There's a different opinion lockout.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
There's a tick count no one, what's gonna give it?
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Fritch counts my money.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Trapwn.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
It's incredibly insensitive to me. I was trying to rhyme
something with guys and I said wives. That's not okay.
I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
A lot of them are married.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, wasn't watch other No, I didn't say that.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Oh god, I didn't either. I didn't need it.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
Well, the lockhout officially start until Plaski writes this big
calm about the w NBA and how this is bad,
And there's a graphic of locks put together in front
of a building, chaining out the women players.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Like a little girl, a little girl trying to get
in wearing Clark.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Jersey just wants to play.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
All right, We'll be back in a moment with the
top story of the day. We're talking charges.

Very easy to do and it's free. Right now, it's
time with the top story of the day. Top story
of it.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Probably had davon last hour plenty of Dodger coverage. We
got a game tonight, as you mentioned, p against the Reds.
So with the Dodgers having scored two runs in two
days before yesterday's wildly entertaining, did you see show Hey
talk to that Padre fan in the front realm affair.
Wasn't that great?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I thought he didn't speak English. Yeah, I'll just.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Oh, he had a whole conversation with him. He found
out the guy's got two kids. One's going to private,
one public. Just a hell of a conversation there. I
guess day thought the guy was a little annoying, and
it just shows the class of show Hey that he
was able to put by say by guns. So, with
all that shoved to the side, p I'll go with
this A story in three parts, some muscly intrigue and
(14:54):
easdropping on that muscly intrigue, a story of self deprecation,
and as we are on the eve, a reminder that
hundreds of dreams, like the thousands of dreams from earlier
this year, are going to be shattered sadly in the
next twenty four hours. If you are fortunate enough to
(15:17):
have played high school football at a very high level,
you're the best player on your team, maybe even in
your league, maybe one of the best in the state.
You get a scholarship to a Division one school.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Great.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Maybe some people are overwhelmed by the jumping competition and
that's where it ends. Others play well enough to have
thoughts of playing professionally. Maybe it's production, maybe it's traits.
The NFL is always going to turn over every rock
and try to find players. About three hundred of them
get invited to the combine. When that invite doesn't come,
pretty big hit to the dream. When you still don't
(15:51):
get drafted, Even bigger hit to the dream if you
don't get the undrafted free agent call to be part
of a ninety man roster mammoth, almost impossible to overcome.
Hit to the dream. Got to start thinking UFL. At
least there's some avenues, you know, UFL, CFL. Couple of
those paths can produce a bit of time in the NFL.
(16:15):
And that's the thousands of people we're talking about. But
then there is this group today, yesterday, maybe is cuts
begin to show up today. It's a gut wrenching twenty
four hours because you're so freaking close. We just had
DJ ujungalalay on on Friday or Thursday, number one recruit
(16:37):
in the nation. And as DJ put it when we
were on the call Saturday, if you Daniel Jeremiah, a
lot of DJs here. If you asked anyone familiar with
that big three, and you know it well in southern California, peek,
as you were doing high school football, you would do
Ujungalila one, Bryce Young, two, CJ Stroud three is you
(17:00):
would rank those three, and of course all of them.
CJ Straud Ohio State, Bryce Young, Alabama, DJ Clemson and
look now, CJ a number two overall pick, has been
to the Pro Bowl, has been at the playoffs. Bryce
Young a number one pick that was benched for Andy
Dilton for a little while, and DJ needed a local
tryout to make a ninety man roster for the Chargers
(17:21):
as his only option. And do his credit, he's played
well and I am certain that he is a lock
for the Chargers practice squad, and that's a big accomplishment
for him. You know, you stick around, you continue to
learn under Justin Herbert and Trey Lance.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
You're on a roster.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
You're on a roster.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
You're buzzing around a roster. You belong to somebody.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Exactly you can get him the building. Are you making millions? No,
but you're making you know, seventeen twenty grand a week
learning under harbaughn Greg Roman and Shane Day. And then
next year, if it works out, probably the way the
Chargers would draw it up, that Trey Lance ends up
getting a big contract as a bridge quarterback, just like
Baker Mayfield did, just like Sam Darnold did. And now
with another year of working some things out, maybe DJ
(18:07):
is battling to be the number two guy. And I
think a lot of people can maybe see that pass Saturday.
He made some really great high level throws that TD
to the tight end to Ronde Gadst and that's starting
NFL quarterback throw on the move. Tight coverage dropped it
to a tight end with enough touch but enough power
to get it over the linebackers. Beautiful had an out
(18:27):
to Campbell a series later, the same under pressure offensive
line did him no favors had to cut it loose
when his wide receiver was still two steps away from
even getting into his break through with anticipation perfectly between
the numbers to pick up a first down, and when
you look at that compared to his final season of
tape four touchdowns, six interceptions, fifty percent completion rate at
(18:50):
Florida State, which was on fire for everybody that was
there at that time, and how badly it unraveled. Not
promising for your NFL prospects, but head down, we had
a wonderful conversation with him on Thursday. Sounded like he
was in a great place mentally, and he made it.
It was great, exact, Yes, it was unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
He made it work.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
You look at some other guys on the roster p
in the case of Stevo Klotz, Luke Grimm, guys with
great college production. Team captains Josh Kaltenberger, the center from Michigan,
Corey Stewart, left tackle from Purdue, t Rydwards defensive tackle
from Illinois. They're hoping that sixteen spots on the practice squad,
maybe one of them have their name on it. If
(19:30):
you're on it, like we said, you're not making millions,
but you're still getting paid handsomely to play this game,
to continue to chase your dream. You're still relevant, you
still get the practice. You could be called up. Maybe
you're being watched by other teams. Who might want to
grab you and put you on their active roster for
a week or two. You're one of the twenty that
is not told you can't stick around and that it's
(19:52):
maybe time to call it, And those are the tough ones.
It's thirty two teams, it's six hundred and forty players,
because you can only keep seventy really sixty nine technically,
so you'd be talking about six hundred and seventy two
players that will be trying to figure out if the
NFL in fact is their future. So not easy. Wish
(20:15):
them all well, competed their tails off. May there be
jobs for all of them somewhere down the line. Saturday
was up at Levi Stadium and the eavesdropping port of
the part of the top story here. Pe Lorenzo O'Neil
is just as good of a guy as there is.
And I happen to be on the field talking to
(20:35):
Nick Hardwick when Lorenzo walked onto the field. For those
that don't know, Nick, longtime starting center for the Chargers.
Now they're offensive line assistant coach, assistant offensive line coach,
and I.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Can't believe he did that to the people of San Diego.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I just Nick God just taking a job. Guys just
making a paycheck here, And as all three of us
were talking for whatever reason, I I deposit the question, Hey,
you two guys wrestle right now, because they're both still
in incredible shape. What happens? And for those that don't know,
(21:09):
Nick was a walk on at Purdue. He was the
Indiana State champion, number one wrestler in the state, all
Big ten wrestler home of Iowa, Wisconsin. I mean Big
ten is where you go to wrestle wrestling powerhouses. Lorenzo
O'Neil was a two time All American in high school.
He was forty two and zero twenty five pins, held
(21:30):
the state record. I think he still holds the California
state record for the fastest pin and was named the
California State Athlete of the Year and became an All
American at Fresno State, finished seventh in the NCAA Championship
A tourney. Yeah, he's in the ring of honor big time.
And like as great a football player, he was a
(21:50):
better wrestler. So when I bring it up as just
you know, me being an idiot and one hundred and
fifty pound weekly, they start eyeballing each other for like
a good five seconds trying to figure this out.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
You're like Mills Lane all swollen their mat don't lie.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
And Nick is you know, they're both humble because they're
freaking tough as hell, so they can be humble. I
was like, I don't know, a manaze in good shape
and he's got all that length, and Nick's like, I
don't know, you got a trunk, he got some leverage,
and then all of a sudden it shifts. Nick Hardwick's like, well,
you know, I feel pretty good low. I've been putting
up four or five again. I feel good about that.
(22:28):
I was like, yeah, you know, this is this is
a legitimate conversation because yeah, you know, stop doing that, Nick,
I'm just doing two twenty five thirty reps five sets.
That's kind of what I've been up to. I'm like, said, right,
twenty five thirty reps for five sets, and Nick's climbing
under four hundred and five pounds. They then agree, I
believe to settle it by saying, well, you know what,
you start the match stand up. Nick's probably got the advantage,
(22:50):
but I think we get to the ground whether I'm
in top or bottom I feel like I got that
advantage there, and they were like, okay, we'll agree with that.
So that's what you get to witness.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
It sounds very homo erotic. It was I was.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
I was. I was quite intrigued, perhaps physically. Finally pee
your length?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Are you a top or a bottom? Where do you.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Finally?
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Pete?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Perhaps one of the more interesting situations I've ever found
myself in in a game. So just to set the scene,
I do not do any work like for the for
the September fifth game against the Chiefs, I will do
as much work on the Chiefs as I will the
Chargers preseason. I do nothing on the Chargers opponent. It's
(23:36):
all about this roster. Who do we need to get
to know? Which undrafted free agents are raising their hand,
what veterans have they signed?
Speaker 4 (23:43):
All that. That's all you do.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
The the other team, I put their name, their number.
If there's something interesting that really jumps out, that'll get included.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
But that's it.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
No stats, nothing So with this with the show on Friday,
I pushed on my prep up a day to get ready,
so I build you know what I need on Wednesday,
set it aside, fly up there, get to the game
and had a chat with Gus Bradley, one of my
favorite people that I've ever been around, the longtime DC
(24:15):
of the Chargers. He's now an assistant d assistant head
coach for Kyle Shanahan. His son is starting, So I
was talking to him for a while about Carter and
how he's doing, and that was kind of my quarterback focus.
So I was just kind of focused on that. Well,
Carter rolls an ankle early and the backup comes in
and so here comes number four trotting out Nate Sudfeld
Indiana eight years. And here's a couple of calls I
(24:38):
have of Nate Sudfeld trying to keep it balanced and
entertaining empty for Sudfeld, he's got time middle of the field,
tipped at the line of scrimmage and incomplete. So outcomes
the punning unit and off to Wilson. Now it's a
keeper for Sudfeld, and now he's got a lane. Sudfeld
steps out of bounds inside the forty to the Charger
thirty nine right sideline, william sitting pursue and that's a
(25:01):
nice run by Sudfeld. Eighth year player out of Indiana. Yeah,
Williamson took a good angle. It just didn't get him
on the ground. Sudfeld in motion, new set of downs,
looking to pass, looking right, throwing right on the slant
and connects the junior Bergen for the first down game
of eleven. Sudfeld under center, hands to Wilson, cuts back
(25:23):
middle Hito the end zone, touchdown, forty nine ers.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
I thought it was pretty good, right, I mean it
sounded serviceable. Sure.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
So right, here's the thing, pee, Nate Sudfeld isn't on
the forty nine ers.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Oh he's not now.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Nate Sutfeld was on their game notes, number four. Nate Sudfeld,
eighth season out of Indiana. Nate Sudfeld was on the
flip card that was waiting in front of me. The
flipcart is what the team leaves for the broadcast and
all the people in the press, so you can identify
who's what number.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
So it was a quarterback that didn't exist.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
So about the fourth quarter, who was it? Turns out
it was born in Waco, Wisconsin. Quarterback from twenty twenty three,
SMU twenty twenty one to twenty twenty two, Oklahoma twenty
eighteen to twenty twenty. You very well may have called
one of his games p it was Tanner Mordecai. Oh,
(26:23):
I don't know the Tanner Mordecai. Nate Sudfeld was cut
on Friday, like the Falcon and Royal tenen Bolls like Mordecott.
Nate sudfeldt was cut on Friday while we were doing
our final tour stop of our twenty twenty five PMS
Summer tour, and they gave his number to another guy,
the exact same number to Mordecai who's wearing number four,
(26:48):
And it says Nate Sudfeld on the flip card, Nate
Sudfeld on all of my notes, and here I as
you heard when he makes and I'm like, man, Nate
sudfalg can kind of move out there. And yeah, did
not figure it out out until the fourth quarter, maybe
five minutes left in the game.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Nobody cared, right, so you just had to figure it
out on your own. The oldbody came in there and said, hey,
that guy's not real.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Nobody, not a single per my My spotter was apologizing profusely,
like what the well, how are you supposed to know?
I mean, it's like we've got you've got a flip
card I've got my board everything, says Sudfeld. He was
really upset with himself for not having picked it up.
We're on the eighth floor, is where the press box is,
so it's not like we're close to the action and
(27:32):
can read the names on the bad. I guess if
I really focused in, I could have figured out that
it wasn't sudfeled. But yeah, at least I would say
a good twenty to twenty five plays and three and
a half quarters of short change and old Tanner Mordecai
of his glory on KFI AM six forty in a
(27:53):
preseason contest on a Saturday evening.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Well, you know, there could have been four at least
just three, Yes, there was just that.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
And then and then I find the Tanner Mordecai page
on the San Francisco forty nine er website and it
says he's number fourteen, which he was not. So it's like, oh,
at least you guys are up to speed to where's
the sid nowhere to be found.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
We'll be back with your dad and a live guy

time for the Dead Guy Birthday of the Day.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Greatest opening line to a second paragraph of a Wikipedia
biography I ever done, did read, and that is why
we have today's dead Guy Birthday to day. Two hundred
and thirty two is what John Neil would have been.
Born in Portland, Maine, died in Portland, Maine. American writer, critic, editor, lecturer, activist.
(31:49):
And here's that line that caught my attention. Pe the
first American author to use natural addiction and a pioneer
of colloquialism. Neil is the first to use the phrase
son of a bitch.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
In a work Give it to Me Again, Jack Lynn,
in a work of US fiction, here is the line.
The book seventy six from eighteen twenty three, a historical
fiction novel set during the American Revolutionary War, the protagonist
Jonathan Odley, recounts a battle scene in which he is
(32:35):
mounted on a horse quote, I wheeled made a dead
set at the son of a bitch in my rear,
unhorsed him and actually broke through the line. That's hard guy.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
John Neil.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Born in Portland. His dad died a month after he
was born. His mother, incredibly smart, got after it, made
up the lost family income by establishing her own school,
renting rooms in their home to borders. He reduced his
mother's financial burden. Neil left school and home at the
age of twelve for a full time employment all Right
aberdasher and dry goods salesman. He traveled through Maine as
(33:12):
an itinerant, penmanship instructor, a watercolor teacher, a miniature portrait artist.
Moved to Boston at twenty, became very good friends with
John Pierpont. They made big profits smuggling contraband British dry
goods between Boston, New York City and Baltimore. Went so
well in Baltimore he moved there, was hired as a
writer for The Portico. And that's kind of where this
(33:35):
I guess what became his life's work and his career
of record. That's where it was born. The Portico contributed poems, essays,
he was a literary critic, he wrote, He wrote his
first book, then play, became the country's first daily columnist,
made a bunch of money, and he moved to London.
He wanted to supplant Washington Irving as America's literary voice.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
That's gonna be tough, you know. It was the guy
that put the knicks in New York Knicks.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
It was tough. So when that didn't happen, Inspired by
athletics abroad, he opened He moved back to his hometown
at Portland, Maine, opened the first gymnasium. He taught boxing,
he talked fencing. He urged Thomas Jefferson to open a
gymnastics school at the University of Virginia, and then he
founded the Yankee magazine, published a bunch more novels, and
(34:22):
at a time when many American writers copied eurostyles, Neil
was the one who encouraged originality and realism. He supported
Edgar Allan Poe Walt Whitman was one of the first
critics to praise their works. He was also a strong
advocate for social change. He was a big proponent of
women's rights, including the right to vote long before that
was popular, abolition of slavery as well. He worked as
(34:45):
an editor of Public Speaker, pushed for justice for progress.
Died in eighteen seventy six at the age of eighty two,
and again the most important part of his history quote,
I wheeled, made a dead set at the of a
bitch in my rear, unhorsed him and actually broke through
the line.
Speaker 4 (35:05):
Johnny pretty strong. I mean I never heard about him, right,
They sent a bitch. We will do Scottish news here, Yes,
Scottish news.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
It's Scholtish news news. It is Scoltish. What's your wished?
Speaker 4 (35:23):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Do you have an understand the word I'm saying?
Speaker 4 (35:25):
Got yourself?
Speaker 2 (35:26):
I owned with the Scoltish News fifty seven.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
Today. We celebrate this guy when we can.
Speaker 7 (35:34):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
He has interacted with us in social media. Seems like
a pretty nice guy. Stuart Murdoch, the lead singer of
Belle and Sebastian, born in Clarkson, Scotland, went to the
University of Glasgow. The ones from the fourteen hundreds don't.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Have mascots, man, And that's a damn shame, you know.
Speaker 4 (35:59):
That's that's so old.
Speaker 2 (36:00):

nineteen ninety five, after a few rough years, he started
(36:39):
to recover and formed an indie rock band or indie
pop called The Balanced Sebastian, named for a nineteen sixty
five TV series for kids, and they started banging out albums.
They got a warm reception for their first album, Tiger Milk,
which is fabulous for a debut album, and then the
(37:01):
sophomore effort, which is widely considered their masterpiece, is if
You're Feeling Sinister, named by Spin as a top one
hundred album between eighty five and two thousand and five.
Not bad for a little Scottish outfit. Nineteen ninety eight,
The Boy with the Arab Strap is another great album.

years I thought he was a gay guy. Yeah, so
