Speaker 2 (00:37):
George, what the Hell's happening in your world?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Man?
Speaker 4 (00:40):
Not much excited because college football season has finally started.
We got it on the TV right now. But I
do have a question, Jonas, because we are sitting in
for Petros and Money. Well, yeah, and usually when I'm
in here, it's either Petros or Money here same and
is it?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Is it okay if we hit the gonge?
Speaker 1 (00:59):
I was just gonna ask that because Ronnie Fossio is here,
Adam Ouslin is here, and I'm not sure the rules
and regulations.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
When it comes to the gong. Okay, here we go.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Let's see, right, just went through the window.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
So that was probably hurt on KFI as well too.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
So, yes, I think the gong is permanently dented.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
I think it is nice work.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
I mean, you got to autograph that before we leave,
but we won't be taking you all the way up
until seven o'clock here. I know, George, you had a
chance to go to the Dodgers game last night.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Dodgers get another win.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Show, Hey Otani gets a win as a starting pitcher
for the Dodgers. Yes, take away other than I think
they were handing out Otani's fifteenth bobblehead.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Your experience at Dodgers stadium line?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Why did you say that like it was a negative thing.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
He's got so many bobbleheads. He's like his dog's got
a bobblehead.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Okay, So, so I sat next to well, I was
sitting in the seat. My wife was sitting there, and
then she was sitting next to a guy who had
on baseball pants. He had on new Balance shoes, and
then he had on and he had on a shirt,
like a blue Dodger shirt underneath, and he had a
(02:21):
jersey on over it. Right, and my and my wife
eventually says to me, She's like, George's dude kind of
looks like show show Haled Tani and and then and
and and the man is is of Asian dissent.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
So I'm sitting there like you you can't save it.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
So yes, I'm like if it was some Irish guy,
I'd be asking questions.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
So so then in the eighth inning, she she says
to him like, yo, you look just like show Hal
Tani and the lady sitting right next and he was like, yeah,
I've had people say that. And then the lady sitting
next to him is like, stop it, stop it, stop,
stop it. You know, he is a show Hate impersonator.
(03:04):
He gets he gets paid a lot of money to
do this. Oh really, yes, so not because the dude
looks exactly like Show Hey Old Tony.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
He's just a little bit more, he's a little chubbier.
That's it. That's it.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
And so turns out we were sitting next to a
Show Hey Old Tony impersonator, a man who makes really
good money. Apparently he's like super famous in the Show Hate.
It's like Elvis impersonators, and then there's Show Hey impersonators
and he's the guy.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
I didn't know that was a thing.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Who knew?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I mean, good for him. Look, if you could make
a living doing that, Like why not do it? There
was a guy I saw a Will Ferrell impersonator, and
that's just his gig. The guy goes around, he goes
around to corporate events, he goes around to all sorts
of stuff and just that's what he does. He does
Ricky Bobby in full costume. He's got the NASCAR suit
and everything, and just walks around and makes cash doing impersonations.
(03:57):
I mean, look, if you're sitting with the rister, I mean,
you're doing pretty well for yourself at a Dodger.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
You have no idea where I was sitting.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I'm gonna guess.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
I'm gonna guess, all right, I'm gonna guess based on
based on George.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I'm gonna guess.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
These are decent seeds. These aren't the nosebleeds. You're not
sitting up at the top, you know, high five and
et like these are. These are close to the field.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
I was not sitting in. I was sitting in five
dugout JJ. Okay, So I was sitting in the lowest
part of the of the bowl, like just on the
first base side. But we're not quite on a on
on a side, just a little bit of an angle.
We're like tilted so we can see through the right
(04:39):
through a right handed hitter. It's a batter's box and
it's not cumbersome at all.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Now, is this impersonator having a couple of cocktails during
the game or is he like.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
No, he was busy making making content all game. He
was filming with two different types of cameras. He was
filming with his cell phone, and then he had this
this little camera thing that I'm getting Now it films
forward and backwards at the same time.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Oh wow, yeah, we've now gotten to that level.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Yes, So it films forward and backwards at the same time.
So he's like doing something cheering and making content while
Sho Hay is up there hitting and while so I
guess I don't I need to find this dude's channel
his TikTok or whatever else. And then like four seats
down there's this apparently there's this famous TikToker because I
don't know, he's wearing like a bedazzled shirt and it's
(05:30):
this super like like, so, I'm six three, the dude's
bigger than me. He's so he's probably six', five maybe
about like two eighty but uh, yeah, dude and he's
wearing the dazzled shirt And i'm, like, yo who is this?
DUDE i was like this Licks and then somebody later was, like, yeah,
dude he's this famous TikToker and all this, stuff AND
(05:51):
i was, like, YEAH i.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Look have you ever SEEN i, mean you probably saw
it last, night people doing tiktoks in real time that's
not on TikTok sort, of but behind the.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
SCENES i watched it one time AND i was mortified
BECAUSE i just, thought this is.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Awkward like you're in the middle of like a public,
setting there's people, Around you're jumping around real, quick being a,
goofball and then it just ends and then you're checking
your work and it's.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Just the whole thing is.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Bizarre. DUDE i love. IT i love.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
It and the reason WHY i love it is because
the audacity that it takes to do it in public
and you're not worried about what anybody else is. Thinking
you're just worried about getting the.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Shot.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Now, now, granted some of these people are like way
too much where they're they're filming, content and it's like
cumbersome and like annoying to everybody else around. You That
i'm not with but if you're just standing in the
park doing your little TikTok dance or, WHATEVER i appreciate
the boldness and the audacity because you because that would
(06:57):
make most people self conscious to be.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Able to do.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
That now you've been to Enough dodger games to know
the difference between When otani's.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
On the mound and when he's not on the. Mound,
yeah what's that?
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Buzz?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Like i've not seen him pitch At Dodger stadium, yet.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
It is first of, all even when he wasn't, pitching
the excitement when he goes up to bat is. Crazy
but when he's, pitching it there's a buzz in a
stadium because because he's more, intense like his intensity is
up more when he's on the mound versus when he's just.
Hitting and last night was. Special and the reason WHY
(07:33):
i say that is because this was his first, win,
obviously but his stuff was, working and because in the
beginning he walked a, few he walked a couple, batters
his ball to strike where ratio was way out of,
whack but he but he was getting a lot of
swing and misses and he ended up with a lot of.
(07:53):
Strikeouts so that was the part that was impressive because
you just looked and you were, like oh, wow his
stuff is really good and he's gonna be a weapon
come playoff. Time and that was the thing THAT i
took away From it was, like oh, wow when when
He's dylan his stuff and And rats are not a
bad team this. Year SO i was, like his stuff
(08:13):
is good because it's not like they were putting it
in play soft ground. Balls, no they were swinging and,
missing which is which is a big.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
ENCOURAGE i was listening To Mark pryor was on with.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
The Dan Patrick, SHOW i think last week or a
few days, ago and he, was you, know asked to
Compare Shoeo, tani what does he remind you? Of and
anytime somebody throws out the Name Nolan ryan, like, yeah
that's kind Of And Mark pryor's point, Was, yeah there's
just this element to him to where when he wants
to blow you, away he's going to blow you away
with his, fastball like he can get there whenever he,
(08:49):
wants and it's almost like he he's, pitching he's trying some.
Stuff he's trying his, splitter whatever whatever pitch he's got going.
On and then he just Decides i'm going to go
one hundred miles an hour And i'm gonna throw it
three times in a row past.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
You, yeah like it's AND i don't.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
KNOW i.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
DON'T i don't think people BECAUSE i know that we
appreciate it. Clearly you, know the people In, anaheim you,
know didn't appreciate it as.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Much BUT I i JUST i don't know that people
have fully.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Grasped the idea of what we're watching because now that
he's he's ramping it. Up and you mentioned the buzz
when he first pitched that first. NIGHT i remember watching
that game And petros made the point to where it
was one of the few times you'll see At Dodger
stadium at first pitch the place is.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Filled, yes because.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
People was at that game. Too.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
YEAH i was at the first game he. PITCHED i was,
like and mind, YOU i didn't even know. THAT i
went there not knowing he was. Pitching AND i was, like,
man it's crowded getting in, here BECAUSE i usually try
to get to the stavement about an hour and ten
minutes early and hour and twenty minutes, early and just
so you can get in get you, know get, get
(09:57):
get yourself, settled get some, food every anything. Else AND i, Said,
yo this is very busy getting in here. Today and
it just shows how much seven hundred million dollars is actually.
Worth like when you compare him and that seven hundred
(10:18):
million dollars to the seven hundred million dollars that got
spent with The, mets those things are not the sameund
those things are not the same because when you think
about how much they are making In, asia when they
are making in overseas and even in Other, europe In
european countries and here in The states From jersey, sales
(10:40):
how much they're able to make from the regional sports
networks and then licensing The dodgers brand out, overseas it is.
Insanity and it is a huge return on. Investment other
unlike The, mets who got a right fielder who can't
defend his, position.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
It's already paid for.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Itself and, then and you could argue it did that
before the end of last year and he wasn't even pitching.
Yet and now that he's, pitching you're just seeing the
full arsenal of what he brings and the attention and
the notoriety and the buzz that you talk.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
About Which, look if you.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Listen ON am five seven E La, sports if you're
watching on, television whether locally on a national, broadcast you
can sense there's a different vibe in the, stadium like
when he's.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Out, there there's a different. Vibe and the other thing,
too he's a big. Dude like it's not, like, oh
he's a.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Monster he doesn't look Like, bettson looks more Like Freddie freeman.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Than like he's he's a he's a Huge and so
just to see him on the, mound like that's an
intimidating thing to have to deal with if you're if
you're a, hitter and if you're a hitter, knowing, oh
by the, way this guy's that good at that and
he hasn't even hit, Yet like he's coming up in
the bottom of the First like that's it's a wild
(11:54):
time to watch a professional. Athlete AND i DON'T i
don't know if it's on par with Maybe Bo. JACKSON
i Think Bo jackson was a little bit different in
the sense that there was, this well he's doing part
time this and part time, that and it's like Man
otani's gonna be out there every five days and he's
going to be batting almost every opportunity has with The
(12:15):
dodgers in this.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Lineup, oh it's definitely.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Impressive and the main reason is BECAUSE i don't think
that it's people really grasp the perspective of, it right
is we're watching what everybody Thinks Babe ruth, was except
for he's playing against the best players in the world
compared To babe didn't get a chance to play against
(12:38):
The Negro league players very. Much, yes they played some crossover,
games but it didn't happen very. Often so you're not
playing against the best, players like a combination of the
best players in the world at the same time Versus otani.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Is and we're.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Living in an era WHERE i, mean, everybody oh my,
gosh this guy's the next, great this thing, ever he's the,
Best he's the, Goat and you're, like let's put some
perspective in. It but when you put What otani's doing in,
perspective the only perspective is Really Babe ruth in terms
(13:14):
of a pitcher and a, hitter and he's doing it
even better than he was doing it at that point in,
time which is mind. Blowing so if he's able to
keep this up he doesn't even have to keep this
up through the duration of the. Contract if he keeps
this up for what he's doing for another five six,
years oh, Yeah oh.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
This is A hall Of fame career without a.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Doubt oh it's a. YEAH i think it's it's a foregone.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Conclusion he's got his world, series and you, know we
always make the. Point but it's fascinating BECAUSE i was
actually At Angel stadium last weekend and you just look
around and there's just this sense of distraught because it's all,
like no matter what you, do it's like having a
chore to do or all to pay to where you
(14:01):
can go out and get your mind off it for
a little, bit and then the reality sets hi when
you're driving, home, like, DAMN i still got that THING
i gotta, Do and Like angel fans are probably walking around, going,
hey you, know we're much better than we were. Before,
damn he's right up the freeway and he's pitching, Now
like it's just.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
They Can Mike, Trout.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
Dude they had a guy, who prior to that string of,
injuries was probably going to be a top five or
ten baseball player of all. Time but he Will Mike
trout because of The angels'. Failures he will never never
get his just due because you can't get your just
(14:40):
due without postseason accolades and postseason you, know numbers and.
Moments so you've had one of the best players who
will never get what he deserves in terms of when
it's time for him to go into The hall Of,
fame Because Mike trout's gonna be.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
A hall Of.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Fame, yeah he won't get the respect and to talk
about because he's only been in the postseason one time
in his entire, career and that was in twenty fourteen
in a sweep to The. Royals so we don't even
know if he hits well in the, postseason if he's
a big time. PLAYER i, mean that's actually the thing
(15:18):
that Made Derek jeter so famous was the postseason, accolades
and that was the thing that people knocked about a
rod was some of the postseason. Stuff and we have
no idea How Mike trout would ever. Perform and The
angels Had Mike trout in his prime and they had
show hal tiny on the field and couldn't even make the.
(15:38):
Playoffs for us to, watch.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
It was not, good total.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Disaster and he comes up here and next, thing you,
know he's you, know, pitching he's you, know selling stadiums,
out he's Winning World, series he's delivering in the. Clutch
like he's been. Awesome he's been everything you could want
out of a.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Superstar and he was willing to play. Hurt he played
with his shoulder thing in the World World.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Series so now you think, So so now you're, like
not only is he, good he's. Tough he'll sacrifice and
put his body on the line for the for the.
Team that's the kind of guy that that people can
cheer for and get but Behind that's why they Love
Freddy Freddy, Freeman that's why they Love Mookie, betts not
just because they're great, players but because they feel like
(16:22):
they're good humans and they will put it on the.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Line when it.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Matters and also show he's got a little smart ass to,
him you, know high five in That padre fan that
was happening on that. Game that's that shows that shows
a level of smart ass that he just naturally has
THAT i think is a good.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Thing, ALSO i like to Defend Freddy.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Freeman so what the guy's picking his nose hair or
what do you want him to do just sit there
and let that thing bother him like they're. Showing they're
showing him in the. Dugout they do a close up
and he rips a nose hair out and, everybody you,
know people, like, oh that's, Disgusting, hey little self. Grooming
get the cameras out of the. Dugout all, right mind
your own. Business guy's got to take care of. Himself,
okay he's got to look.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Good.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Sports, yes if you think that that's the nastiest thing
that that. Happened they are playing with their playing in
the dirt on the, grass and then you have to
wipe your face. Off you don't you you can't just
go to the dug out and be, like hold, on
let me let me get my hand.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Sanitizer that Was that Was.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
That was one of my favorite parts OF covid is
when they said When Major League baseball came back for
their fifty game season or whatever it was sixty, games
and they, said you, know we're gonna put a restriction
on players. Spitting, okay all.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Right, everybody just, okay this is.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Baseball you're grabbing your own, junk all, Right you're stealing,
signs you're gonna spin they're using chewing. Tobacco, like let's
just everybody this this is a dirty. Sport that's why
their nickname or dirt. Bags they call them dirt bags
if they're one of those guys that like to slide
a lot and get after a little. Bit so, YEAH
i but, uh but congratulations to show hey first win
(17:54):
as A dodger pitcher last, night And George reister was
there to see it all With showey tawny stunt up
right next to. Him that's that's another Thing Babe ruth doesn't.
Have he never, had he never had an impersonator back
in the. Day are we are we sure?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
THAT i don't.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
KNOW i mean there's some there's some questions about you,
Know Babe ruth and you.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
Know see but there then THEN i bet it was
a lot easier to be an impersonator because people didn't
have you, know, uh the the the internet.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
To be able to.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Check, yeah you could fool, people.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Boy yes. Exactly, yeah, yeah you're probably, hey this Is
Babe Babe.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Ruth how would they know the. Difference they've only seen
black and white steel. Pictures, okay if they have even
seen him at? All, yeah because they were listening through the,
radio so they may not have even seen, him so
so you could have said anybody Was Babe. Ruth And
i'm telling people people used to be able to get
away with a lot back in the day before The.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Now they think about, it you gotta start looking back
at some historical twins and see what sort of shenanigans
they were, pulling you, KNOW i, mean, uh you.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
Football there we, Go, danny that that game in.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
Particular George reister, here so Your noles are almost fourteen point.
Dogs And Thomas cassiano's their new quarterback transfer From Boston,
college has talked all types of trash there's no nobody
scared And nick saving, anymore all of this. Stuff how's
this game gonna?
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Go danny Oh man.
Speaker 5 (21:39):
Charge for, me because WHEN i saw those, COMMENTS i was,
like what are you? Doing? What why on earth would
you kick that hornet's? Nest because you, Know bama's already
got a bad taste in their mouth from last season
right nine to, three they losing their bowl game From.
Michigan they've taken enough he criticism from their fan. Base
(22:02):
and then they got a quarterback from a team AND
i know if he was a, transfer But Florida state
was a two win team last year and he comes
out there popping. Off that was not my, style LIKE
i would have never. Like that was one thing Coach
balden always preached to. Us he was, like, hey don't
give him any bulletin board. MATERIAL i will, say this
is more trending now to be able to talk a
little Smack and as long as you back it, up
(22:24):
then go ahead and say all you. Want but if
it blows up in his, face not Only alabama fans
are going to be reminding him of, it but Also
Florida state fans could turn on. Him they'll be, like
what were you doing talk in your? Mouth so we'll
see how it. Unfolds they are going to have their hands, full,
RIGHT i, mean but it's really there's so much. UNKNOWN i,
MEAN i Think alabama's going to be a really good football,
(22:44):
team you. Know the one question is. Quarterback Florida state
has question marks all over the, field not Only Thomas
costelano's once again Where Mike novell has kind of lived
and he's had some success two years ago with a transfer.
Portal they have a ton of new players and leally
going from now you're. Winning Deuce robinson a wide receiver
That i've heard they like him so. Far but they
(23:05):
have so many question. Marks new offensive coordinator With Gus
malzan paired With Tommy. Coslados they've got a new defensive
coordinator they brought in From. Nebraska Mike norvelo cleaned house
last year in a lot of different. Ways SO i,
HONESTLY i don't know What i'm gonna get WHEN i go.
There And i've talked to a lot Of Florida state
fans AND i would put myself in this camp kind
(23:26):
of shell shocked from last year that was that has
the fan base reeling a little. Bit there's some cautious,
optimism but this is definitely one of those years you
kind of wish you had AN fcs ponent or a
directional school that you kind of get a win under your.
Belt you are going to get tested right out of the,
gate playing at home in front of your home. Crowd
So i'm excited to be, there But i'm kind OF
i got a little bit of nerves going through, me
(23:48):
wondering how this thing's gonna.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Unfold how does last season? Happen because you're thirteen and
oh the season prior and then you go to and
Ten and granted it's not Like Mike Norton norvelle forgot
how to, coach but when you look at his record
with his, quarterback and you, know prior versus any other,
quarterback it ain't been.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Good so was it the quarterback.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
That was a part of the. Problem LIKE i think
that was sort of the thing that started things. Downhill
but here's What i'm kind of, noticing and this is
something in this new era with transfer portal where you
can AND i mentioned he went to the portal again
two years. Ago that season they ran the table in
the regular, season they had a lot of transfer guys
there and it, worked but they did have a veteran
(24:32):
quarterback who had been. There they missed on Dju. Unblee
BUT i it's from outside to come in and play one.
Year as soon as you face some adversity and you
start losing and you can't accomplish your, goal which was
very early in the season For Fort, STATE i thought
the team threw in the towel and it kind of
reminded me of WHEN i was in THE nfl on
(24:55):
some bad teams and guys start going through the motions
and they're, like, oh our checks still a, Clear i'm
still getting. Paid i'll show up for, work But i'm
not gonna you, KNOW i don't really care that. Much
like going back fifteen to twenty, years if you were
at a, program there was a pride in your your,
classmates like the guys you came in as freshman with
you play for the, team like the history of the.
(25:17):
Program these guys don't have any. History they're on campus
for eight months before they're out of. THERE i think
it's something to keep an eye. On we saw that
At colorado a couple of years ago before they had
the good season last year With. Shador you, know there's
a lot of teams that have kind of come up.
Short it's kind of blown up in their. Faces but
such transfer portal heavy, teams it can, work but it
also be. Combustible AND i think that's what you saw
(25:38):
last year With Buffalora.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
State Danny canell joining us here on a five to
SEVEN E La, Sports George, Reister Jonas knox in for the.
Guys let me ask you locally here IN la the
pressure you Think Lincoln briley should be under going into
this next season with The.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
TROJANS i, Mean.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
Jonas they're paying them a lot of. Money he's a
guy who, was you, know rattling off double digit win
seasons At oklahoma and it really hasn't lived up to
the expectations. Yet AND i know you had A Heisman
trophy winner In Caleb, williams but last year kind of
fell off the. Rails SO i think there should be
a lot of pressure On Lincoln. Riley you're paying them
a lot of. Money he's been a good. Coach you
should expect more of the. Same Now here's What i'm
(26:19):
kind of buying in TO. USC i think The trojans
could be good this. Year AND i KNOW usc fans
probably got sick of hearing, it but they were close last.
Year they did have some close losses against really good football.
Teams Penn state they had at home and they took
them to. Overtime one that just got away from. Him
how About Notre, dame a team that made it all
(26:39):
the way to the championship. GAME i know the final
score was a little bit, misleading but they had a
couple of pick sixes late to really get that one
away from. Them but physically they could handle. Them and
then they had to figure out figure out the quarterback
position where you, know the Miller moss was. There he
struggled a little, bit started forcing the. Ball jade And
moavis steps. In NOW i kind, of you, know LIKE
(27:00):
usc could have gone out and spent and, bought you,
know a quarterback out, there somebody they really, liked but
they liked what they saw In Jade. Maeva AND i
Think Lincoln, Riley i'm gonna trust his history with three
first round you, know overall number one overall, picks and
guys that have won The Heisman. Trophy i'm gonna trust
his ability to recognize quarterback talent and develop. It SO
(27:21):
i actually feel pretty good about him this season in
A big, ten which is a little bit top. HEAVY
i think they're one of the more talented. Teams if
they get a couple of close wins to go their
way the opposite the last, YEAR i think they can
be a sneaky playoff. Contender oo oh.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
My, goodness, man that that humidity.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
MUST i ALSO i might be Like Lincoln. RILEY i
talked to him at media days In Las, vegas and
he had kind of his quiet. Confidence now everybody's, confident
everybody's optimistic in the, offseason BUT i thought he. THOUGHT
i think he feels pretty good about his. ROSTER i
also liked that they cleaned the outs with the strength.
STAFF i do think that was an issue that made
(28:00):
the change to coordinator a year. AGO i think that
defense will be proved after another year of that. System
So i'm kind of buying into little vibes with around USC's.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Program by the way you do mention the uh they
were in a lot of those, games it just seem
like somewhere you could count on them at the end
of the game making a mistake or it just falling apart,
Right AND i don't. KNOW i don't know if that
was just a team thing or A Lincoln RILEY i,
mean who. Knows BUT i just, wonder is that is
that the? Norm do we expect? It because, YEAH i
(28:31):
mean a couple of those, games you, know we look
back and we go, man you, know we're talking about
a whole whole different story going into this next. Season
if they just can pull through in a couple of
those matchups, late no.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
Doubt but to your back to the original, question if
they go six and six or seven and five and
it's a similar, season then it's going to get really.
Uncomfortable but you, know AND i know USC's got a
lot of money at their. Disposal there is a big
buyout still For Lincoln. Riley, like that's prohibiting a lot
lot of. Schools especially when you have to start paying
the players and budgets are a little bit, tighter you
(29:04):
got to make some really uncomfortable.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Decisions you.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Know Florida state's in the same position With Mike. Norvel,
yeah a lot of fans probably would have said cut
bait last year after two and, ten but he had
fifty million dollars for a buyout this, year it only
goes down to forty And Florida state's just not the
position to cut a check like. That so If Florida
state it's six and six or seven and, five it
could get uncomfortable Around. Tallahassee, NOW i think you kind
(29:27):
of have to go one more year for both of
those programs if they don't you, know achieve their goals
and get, back you, know to where the historically those
programs have. Been but at some point it gets so
bad that you just have, people you, know the bigger,
boosters cutting big checks because they've just gotten tired of.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
It it's that cut thrown out.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
There they're just they're getting ready to Frike norvell after
one one down.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Year oh, yeah damn the, win win now or get,
out Damn.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
Danny how important is This CLEMSON lsu game to both
THE ac and THE sec and Specifically Brian, kelly who's,
like oh for his last five.
Speaker 5 (30:07):
Season openers On, georgia it's. HUGE i, Mean i'm stating the.
Obvious but you know what's interesting is something it's like
what it's such a. Cliche something's got to, give, Right
and you Mentioned Brian kelly's you, know awful record and,
openers two of which were to My Florida state, seminals
SO i like give him a little bit of a plug.
There but on the other, Side clemson last season was
(30:27):
zero to three against THE. Sec you, know they lost
that opener Against, georgia they lost a home Against South,
carolina and then they lost in the playoffs Against. Texas
so they're looking at the season, saying we beat a
lot of, teams we didn't beat very many good. Teams,
like they put up a lot of good, numbers and
they were able to BEAT smu to get that spot
in the, playoffs and they played good Against. Texas but
(30:49):
they want to show because they're kind of an in
this portal, world and you guys know, This Davos sweeney's
kind of bucked the. Trend he's built from, within and
they feel like then they did dabble in the. Portal
they got to a couple of, players won a defensive
lineman For pernue will. Help it's supposed to be pretty
good that they didn't get some like need based. PORTALS
i think they have three, guys so some programs are
(31:10):
getting twenty and. Thirty but at least they're going to address,
needs WHICH i Think davo has done but he's feeling, Like,
okay all that culture, development roster, development this is the
year it's supposed to pay. Off this is the. One
and so it does feel like with the amount of
returners they have that they should be in a pretty good.
Position LSU's got some question marks for. Me they have
(31:31):
four new offensive linemen trying to Protect Garrett nuzmyer on
the road in a hostile, environment and he is old
school pocket. Passer he does not like to run the.
Football SO i kind of Like clemson in this. One
But i'm a little bit nervous because of that record
against THE sec last. Year BUT i Like Kate, clubnick their.
Quarterback he on the other side talking about a pocket
(31:51):
passer With Karrett, Nuzmyer Kate clubnick found his legs on
the back end of last season and kind of opened
up a whole new aspect of his game and it
made him much suffer To and they have some really
good wide receiver on the. Outside so At, TENDELEEN i
Liked clemson land the three and a half at home
in that.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Game Danny canell joining us here On Fox Sports radio
OR am five seventy other.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Sports, sorry that's a bad.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
Habit sorry everybody bad habit, here just letting you, know
but you are a national. Champion The Ohio State buckeys
are national. Champions yet all the, conversation all the focus
for this game Against, texas, which by the, way you
can hear ON am five to SEVENTY La sports This
saturday morning at nine am here on The, blowtorch all
the conversation seems to be about. Them did they Ban
(32:36):
Dave portnoy from entering into the? Stadium did they? Not
the back and? FORTH i gotta BE i don't think
That Bobby bowden would have pulled a soft move like
this back in your. DAY i can't imagine whether it's
The hurricanes or The. Gators what do you make of
this situation In Ohio state's handling of all?
Speaker 5 (32:55):
This Jonas one THING i will, SAY i appreciate you
calling me that actional. CHAMPION i did only start one
game in that championship, season AND i held the. CLIPBOARD
i ACTUALLY i did hold for, kicks SO i did
hold the national championship winning. Kicks SO i didn't get
a ring from. That, YEAH i appreciate.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
That thank.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
YOU i appreciate, that AND i do have a ring
so that's a good. Thing but back to your, QUESTION
i do not Think BOBBY i Mean Bobby. Bowden he
was the biggest sweetheart and he worked the. Media it's
like he charmed the. Media that's why all they kind
of liked. Him and he was a coach who was
getting a lot of criticism for not winning the big.
Game never let it get to, him always smiled with the,
(33:32):
media gave him all the time in the. World they
could never in a million years would have done. That
that being, said there weren't any media members at the
time that were flying banners Over Florida State, stadium you,
know all, things the whole. Program so like that is
a unique situation and it's something that only unfolds like
(33:53):
in twenty twenty, five the way media has, gone and
we've got guys with megaphones that are out there that you,
know have their own, voice with millions of followers on
social media and out there pounding their. Chest SO i
get it from Where Ryan day is. Frustrated but you
cannot be that. Soft you know what you have to.
Do you have to go out there and you have
(34:14):
to Beat texas and, say you know, what shove it.
Up portnoy's but you, know, LIKE i, mean that's what
you have to. Do and then you got to Beat
michigan for the first time in four. Years you got
to use that for motivation and then taunted back LIKE i,
know it's it's kind of the way the world works.
Now but you cannot let people know that it bothers,
you because to, me it makes you look, weak like
(34:34):
you're saying mentally, weak like why are you so? Worried
is he in your head that much that you're making
go into these lengths to make sure he can't come
in the. Stadium that to me does feel incredibly.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Weak he doesn't even play coach.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
Right it is, bizarre it Is and the biggest winner
clearly Is, portnoy like he revels in, this you. Know
AND i THINK i think it's good For fox. TOO
i think it was a brilliant higher as kind of
a counter To pat, McAfee who's sort of the big
voice on college Game, day which has done a great.
Job SO i think it's been a brilliant move For,
fox and it's been even better For Dave portnoy and his.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Profile, Hey, DANNY i need you to talk about My Oregon.
DUCKS i feel like they're flying under the radar this,
year AND i think that it's perfect for, them breaking
in a new quarterback With, dante more, young young wide,
receivers but this defense should BE i think.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Special, George i'm with.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
YOU i think there's two teams and they're both ranked
in the top, ten so it's like hard to say
that they're flying under the, radar BUT i. CANNOT i
haven't found one person that has Picked oregon to win
The Big ten, championship something they did last. Year but
we forget because of that ugly performance in The Rose
bowl and that just those games kind of, happened you.
KNOW i, mean they didn't make adjustments and they got.
(35:54):
Beat it was, ugly but they still are, really really.
Talented And Dante moore another player you guys have familiar
with because of his time AT ucla out there In Los.
Angeles he's a five. Star he's got all the talent
in the. WORLD i think he was thrown a little
bit to The wolves his freshman year struggle with some.
INTERCEPTIONS i think he could do wonders for him to
sit Behind Dylan, gabriel which he did last. Year watch
(36:16):
a true vetteran somebody who played for like eighteen years
in college. Football watch how he. Prepares and you mentioned
the defense Mateo, Ulijungalay you guys got the Right ouijo
De lay like you got the one That's DJ's, brother
who was a disaster For Florida state last. Year he
burst on the. SCENE i remember That Ohio state game
when it was In eugene and they had a couple
(36:38):
of injuries and people thought That oregon defense would suffer
and he stepped. Up he was flying all over the.
Field he has a first round talent And Dan lanning
is a defensive minded, coach and they have been recruiting really.
Well they hit The fuorida really. Well they got the
number one offensive tackle out there In Isaiah. Worlds who
is going to be manning down the. FORD i think
(36:58):
they're going to try to run the football and watch
out For Makay hughes From. Twulane guys go back to
back seasons with over fourteen hundred. YARDS i think he
could be that workhorse back that takes some of the
press drops On. Moore they got a speeds or a
freshman on the outside The Kryan. Moore it was like
a track, star AND i think he could be the
style of A Ryan, williams who lit it up last
(37:19):
year At. ALABAMA i Think oregon is going to be
back in the mix for the. PLAYOFFS i don't think
they're going. Anywhere i'm going to trust the consistency which
With Dan lanning has won out there in your.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Gen, DANNY i got to ask you before we let you,
go because we obviously watched the game In dublin last.
Week we know what happened To Florida state And Dublin
week one last, year and you just see sloppy play
because you know it's the first game of the. Year you,
know you see a lot of maybe some low scoring, affairs,
turnovers et. Cetera how did you feel with no, preseason
(37:51):
with no and the season starts and it's, like all,
right get out, there these games all. Count how did
how long did it take for you and in the
offense and the rest of your teammates to feel, like all,
right we've we've we've worked through a lot of the
early rust and issues that come along with it in
the middle of playing a game that counts towards your
pursuit of a national.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Championship.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
Jonas it didn't take us long at. All you know,
why because we actually played football in training. Camp you,
know like we we went live a lot and we
had two a days a. Lot you, know we used
to call it training. Camp they still call it training camp.
NOW i think they should call it sleepaway camp because
it's like THEY i, mean they just like there's a
lot of team bonding, exercises and they hear great, speakers
(38:34):
and they do a lot of, walkthroughs but they really
don't practice tackling live at. All and SO i think
it's a big shock to the system for a lot
of these players because it's more like THE nfl. Now
and that's WHY i think THE nfl is really sloppy
early in the football. Season you're talking about professional athletes
who train all off. SEASON a lot of those teams aren't.
Tackling you're even seeing a trend where MORE nfl teams
(38:57):
are playing starters in the preseason, saying you know, what
we'll take the risk of. Injury we want to make
sure we get out of the gate. Strong AND i
think it's an issue that college football needs to look.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
At.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
Now they're very protective of, players and understandably so with you,
know the concern for concussion and hits to the. Head
but it's a, physical violent sport and you cannot replicate
it by just doing stud in, practice which is where
you basically have one contact kind to bump a guy
up and then you let them. Go you've got to
learn how to wrap up and bring guys to the.
(39:27):
Ground nobody does, it and SO i think it makes
for some really sloppy. Football and the offense is kind
of shell shock, too because, there for the first, time
quarterbacks are seeing live pass. Rushes wide receivers are going
to the middle and they're used to flying over there
and not worried about any. Contact all of a, sudden
they got people ready, to you, know take their heads,
Off so everybody's kind OF i think it leads to
(39:47):
some really sloppy, play and it is one of the
REASONS i do like a lot of unders this. Weekend
that was one of my favorite plays in the Last
weekend's game was the under in that one which almost
over If iowa stayed had to knocked that one in
at the. END i was a little dicey to they
had twenty four points in the fourth, quarter but but,
YEAH i think it's a tribute to like the issues
that are going on in training camp with nobody.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Hitting this will probably make you feel. Good Brady quinn
had the, over so he had to wear that one for.
IT i love it So Danny. Canel you can see

like guys please trade me. A babblehead i caught a
fly a. Fly ball this is a real. GAME ball
i will trade you the game ball for.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
The.
Speaker 4 (43:32):
BIBBLEHEAD please i got, here late like he's begging, everybody
by and, MIND you i already had a plan for.
Speaker 3 (43:39):
MY bibblehead i got.
Speaker 4 (43:40):
We we, got two one, for me one for. The
WIFE but i got. Two, bibbleheads essentially one is going
in the back of my of my you know the
thing that sits behind you when you're taping remote for.
Your STUDIO, so, i, oh yeah you. At home so
it's going in in the back, on there and then
(44:01):
the other one is staying in the box IN case
i ever decided to. Sell it but, Mind you i'm a.
COLLECTIBLES person i collect, baseball cards, well sorry football cards and,
basketball cards AND so i.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
GET it i. Get it these are these are things that.
Speaker 4 (44:17):
Have value and there are some THINGS that i keep
and hold on TO because i want them. For myself
and then there are THINGS that i keep in HOLD
because i know that other people have that it means
the most to, Other, people like, FOR instance i am
Not A james harden basketball FAN because i, DON'T like
(44:38):
i don't love the way he. Plays, basketball however, IF
however i Have Some james harden one of, ONE cards
i have some low, numbered cards signed cards and all of.
That stuff so the first CHANCE that i can get
off of those for the most amount, of money they.
Can GO but i Also have Lebron's and Jordan's and
(44:58):
kobe's and stuff like That that. I'm, Holding, however jonas
EVEN though i, LOVE it i live by saying everything is.
For sale everything is. For sale everything's just not, on.
Speaker 2 (45:13):
Sale OKAY so i gonna. Understand that so.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
The things that matter to me, the, most like, for
instance if somebody had offered me five hundred bucks right
there for, The show Hey Old, Tony babblehead i'd have
thought about.
Speaker 2 (45:28):
It because it's the fifty to Fifty.
Speaker 1 (45:30):
Right, yeah okay so some guy's Gotten on eBay right
now for two hundred and. Nine.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
Dollars yeah so if you had offered me five hundred bucks,
LAST night i probably would have parted with one, of
them but, NOT both, i mean but for but for
twenty five, Hundred bucks i'd of gave, them both, oh
yeah and then just bought one second and then and.
Speaker 1 (45:52):
BOUGHT it, I mean and THERE'S so I think Key
k hernandez is the next guy to have. A bibblehead
i think he's got one. Coming up, you know they've
they've done this over the past couple. OF years i
just wonder what.
Speaker 4 (46:01):
You're supposed to collect them all. Like that that's what
people are trying, to do not just. Get one they're
trying to get so the so here's is that the, one,
bobblehead yes has, Some value but if you have the
entire collection, of babbleheads like if you have, Every Show,
hey babblehead when when when? He retires and you want
(46:24):
to sell all. Of them you're going to be able
to sell all, of them because that is.
Speaker 1 (46:27):
A thing wouldn't you think the more they come, out
with the less valuable individually each one is. Gonna get
it's gonna that's taking money out of your pocket potentially
down the road out with.
Speaker 4 (46:37):
The correct that's why you want them to each one to,
be different and you want them to have some.
Speaker 2 (46:43):
Limited, runs, well listen enjoy.
Speaker 5 (46:46):
The.
Speaker 1 (46:46):
Bobbleheads everybody, all right we've got our two of the
program coming up next and by, the way after, we're
done make sure you. Check Out david vassa is gonna
