Speaker 1 (00:00):
And we continue on Jonas Knox in today for Rodney
and five to seventy LA Sports. This is the hour.
Somebody's one of those tickets. Somebody's gonna see Clayton Kershaw
to go for three thousand strikeouts tomorrow night against the
White Sox. Somebody's gonna win this hour. Hell yeah, So
be ready to call because you can't just get these
tickets off the street. These are good seats you will
(00:23):
be inside Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I mean, tickets are expensive for that game.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
I know, I know they are. So the good news
you'll have a chance to win, and we'll give you
a queue to call.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Not to derail anything, but yeah, I just brought I
thought I brought up a point with Ronnie. Can you
even scalp tickets anymore?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It's not even a thing right out in front of
the stadium.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, everything's digital, right, so you can't even can't just
hold up your iPhone like tickets, tickets? Who wants tickets?
Can you? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I remember the good old days where people couldn't say
it would be them asking for tickets, you could. They
couldn't say they had tickets rail to get busted say that.
They'd say hey, you got any tickets, and that would
be the uh, hey you know I got I got
two pair?
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Here?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Third baseline out? What are you thinking? And then you
started haggling with them on the price. Those days feel
like they're long gone.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Now, well, wait a minute, couldn't you stand out in
front of the stadium now just hold up your phone
and go tickets and watch tickets and then just electronically
transferred to them.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Yeah, it doesn't feels cool now, Like there's something about
getting the actual physical tickets from somebody you shouldn't be
buying from that feels more edgy, you know what I mean,
Like it just feels like it's an edgier way to go.
It's like when you would go to Vegas, or in
Fred's case, you go to Whiskey Pete's State Line and
(01:41):
you would want a slot machine. Now they'll give you
a voucher and that's cool and all, But it used
to be the good old days where there'd be a
plastic bucket next to the slot machine and you'd put
it under and hear all the coins empty into the bucket.
There was something.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, that's much better.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah, there's nothing about it. There's something about having just
hard copy tickets in your hands. But you know, it's
much easier to get in and out of the stadium
if you just scan your phone. But yeah, scalpers, I
don't know if they'll still exist anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I think you can do it if you're standing in
front of the stadium and somebody walks up and it's
the old tickets, tick whatever, You pay them and they
electronically transfer it to you. The problem with that is this,
who says they'll really transfer the tickets. Oh it didn't.
I'm sorry. You gave me your money, but it didn't work.
I don't know what to tell you. That's a problem.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Well, then it's a standof feels like, well, transfer the tickets,
then i'll give you the money. It's like, no, we'll
give me the money, then i'll transfer the tickets. You're
just standing there staring at each other.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Well, by the sixth thinning, they'll have it figured out.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I'm sure, right when people are still arriving.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Are you one of the people. Do you do this?
I know people that have done this. They go and
pay for parking at Dodger Stadium. They have no tickets
and they just sit and wait. They could wait through
the first half inning of the game and just wait
for the ticket prices to drop. Then they buy him
and hurry and go in. Do you know anybody like that?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I did it on accident one time, not Dodger Stadium,
and it wasn't parking. I did it on accident to
where I was in Chicago. We were out there on
a trip. We were going to go see a Cubs
Cardinals game, and my buddy and I said, you know,
why don't we go get a drink before the game.
That turned into like seventeen drinks and next thing you
(03:29):
know we realized is we're in Murphy's bleachers across from
Wrigley Field. We realized, oh, it's the fourth inning, Albert
Poohols has batted three times already. We should probably get
in there. But yeah, I mean, the tickets were cheaper
and we were just sitting in the bleachers. But you know,
that was on accident. I was unaware of people that
were like, all, sacrifice a half inning for ten dollars
(03:51):
off these tickets. I didn't know that that was a
real thing. I don't.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, I know people like that, Kevin, you know anybody
liked that?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
No, But I mean that ten dollars is big. They
can save you like no half a hot dog, an
amazing league stadium. Saw.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I mean that's like it's a pretty significant game. Like
if that ten dollars is really that much of a
pain in the ass, just like drink one less drink? Like,
I don't know, So what are we talking about it?
Get in there and watch the game.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
But no, you mentioned Chicago. So my family, Now, we
were in Chicago a couple of months ago. The Cubs
are playing the Padres, and we did not buy our
tickets until maybe ninety minutes before the game started. That
was intentional because we knew the tickets would be cheaper.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
And how much cheaper were they.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
We checked the night before. It was probably twenty five
bucks total, not per ticket, but total for for the
it was the four of us. Well, it's not nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I mean I.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Wouldn't drop the prices on those until right before the game. Nowadays,
with everything being digital and you're not needing a hard
copy to get in, I'm not dropping the prices until
right before.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Yeah, but you get in the stadium and just parks
there and waits for that to happen. I mean, you're
in the parking lot that actional anthem is being sung.
They dropped the price of the tickets. You walk in,
you're in for the first pitch.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I mean, look, man, people have interesting ways they go
about taking in a Dodger game. Like remember the people
we talked to who are waiting for the bobbleheads, and
they were like they had brought hot dogs with them.
They brought food into the parking lot and were ready
to make it an afternoon and just spend the afternoon
in the Dodger Stadium parking lot to be one of
(05:27):
the first fans in for a bobblehead. People have interesting
ways to take in a game. I mean, remember you
that time you gave out parking advice on where to
park at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yes, it's the secret spot, the only spot.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
I think. Fred does it opening day every year. It's
become a tradition where Fred talks about the secret spot.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Right, do you remember what lot it's in? Gee, I'm
not going to confirm that because it is because because
if I confirm or deny it, then you'll have another
shot at it.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
So the secret line that you give out every single
year won't be a secret anymore. Despite the fact that again.
You've given it out every single year for the last
five years. This is like Tetros's secret textosa is it
a secret to be given out every year?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I was just going to say that I'm not giving
that to you. What do you mean give it out
every year? I mean that is a good way to
make people go back and listen to the podcast, though,
I mean, all.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Right, listen, I'll tell you where it is. For those
of you who have not heard where it is, I
will only tell you the lot. But if you don't
know the spot, you can guess the spot. But if
you don't know the spot, then that's on you. It's
Lot F, Lot F Park. In Lot F, there is
one spot that is the best spot at Dodger Stadium
(06:46):
in parking one. If you park there, you will be
out in one minute. I don't care what happens, You'll
be right out now.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
How did you stumble upon this?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I appreciate you asking. I simply parked at one time,
and and then I realized, wait a minute, when I
walked out right out, So the next time I went,
I parked there again. Then I started getting there early
so nobody else would get that spot. I didn't care
if I had to wait a bit before I went in,
(07:17):
I still got there early to get that spot because
that is the number one spot. It's lot F.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Any other media members try and fight you for that
spot or what?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
No, you have to pay for it. It's not free.
I pay for parking. I don't get media parking. I do,
but I don't use it. Why not Because I want
to park a lot F so I can get right out.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
So that's even faster than media parking to get out.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Oh yeah, well, media parking, you're up at the top.
When you come out, you can get stutt in traffic.
It takes you down out at sunset.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Now what what spot number and lot F are we
talking about?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
See, that's the question. Okay, there are no numbers, so
you have to know the exact place is it?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Now? I remember you telling this one time, and I
vaguely remember it's next to there's like a pole or
something like. There's there's something about like a corner pole,
like there's some like it's almost by itself, and that's
the way that you kind of cut through all the
uh all the after the right.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Fine, it's the light pole.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Okay, So I was just going but I didn't want
to sound dumb or even more dumb than I am,
so I cause I didn't want to say light pole
because that would narrow down to about three thousand lights
in a parking lot.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Right, So I can't be specific. But there it's the
light pole. And if you see the light pole, there
is one spot directly next to it, and you can park,
you can back in or come around behind, and you'll
go forward and you're out. And this spot has no
one on the side of you because of the light pole.
(09:01):
So it's like in gone. That's the number one spot
at Dodger Stadium in light half. Now, if you choose
to use it, that's on you. But that's it. That's
your tip. I usually give it away before opening day,
but I will do it again for you today.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
What a gift, What a gift from you. You just
helped a lot of people. Now now there's going to
be literally a Donnybrook next to that parking spot because
everybody's going to go there upon your recommendation. By the way,
here's another question for you, Fred. Are you a back
into the parking spot guy or pulling forth?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Good good man, that's a problem. I can't I can't
back in there.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
That is a good man.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Wait, you physically can't, or based on principle, you can't,
frett oh, physically can't. Okay, that's what I thought, you man.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
No, no, I have no choice. I hit everything. I
would just destroy everything in my wake. I can't do it.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
You can't go in reverse in your car?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Why I try to have him take reverse out so
it wouldn't even go backwards when I bought it. But
I didn't buy it. Guy gives it to me to drive,
but Toyota the desert. But uh no, I can't back in.
I'm bad at that. I'm terrible. I can't park. I
can't even parallel park.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
You know, if you can't back in, if you can't
go in reverse, they can have.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
That.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Some would say that's problematic.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Well, I just go around in circles.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
So then if you pull in phase forward, how do
you get out of it?
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I wait for the guy who's parked in front of me,
and then I just go out of his spot.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Okay, I mean it feels like life's difficult on the
road for you. That's what it feels like to me.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'm not saying that. Does anybody else have that problem?
I really cannot back into parking places. I think some
years ago, and and Matt will remember money Smith. Oh no,
it wasn't Matt. I told him about it. I saw
a guy trying to back into a spot in the
parking garage crashed right into one of those big cement posts.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Oh yeah, oh.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, what are you doing? Why would you do that?
Just pull in? Well, it just backing in. I don't
understand it.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
And also I don't know the percentages on this, but
I would say that more lazy people back into the
spot then pull forward into their parking spot when they
arrive somewhere.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
And why would you say lazy people?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Well, and I've had this discussion because I had it
with somebody who does back into their parking spot and
their thought is, well, no, no, no, I'm not really because
it takes more work to pull in and then go
and reverse and back in. I'm like no, But it
means that you're so ready to go by the time
work is over that you just want to pull right
out and you just want to exit the parking lot
(11:54):
or the structure and go about your day. For me,
you don't walk into someplace like imagine you're walking to
the ring at a WWF event or a WWE event
like imagine you're walking out to the octagon in the UFC.
Imagine you're making your entrance into a boxing like Imagine
if you know a closer walked backwards to the mound,
(12:18):
like Eric Ganye, imagine him going in reverse to the
mound to close games years ago. That would look odd
like moonwalking. He's arriving to the venue. You pull in
face forward, all right, and then maybe it takes an
extra second to back out and reverse and then leave
the structure of the spot that you're in. But at
least you're showing everybody I've got enough left in the
(12:40):
gas tank, so to speak, that I'm willing to do
the extra work at the end of my shift to
then leave. It's like gassers at the end of practice.
That's the way I look at it. It feels lazier
when you back into a spot.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I never really looked at it like that. I just
looked at it like this, I can't do it. I
thought you put a lot of thought into that, and
every bit of it made sense. Yeah, or you can
take my approach. I'd hit something and I don't want
to do that. I mean, I'm driving a truck. Now,
do I look like a truck guy to you?
Speaker 2 (13:10):
What kind of truck?
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Well, thanks for asking, I'll tell you exactly what kind
of truck. Toyot Toyota Tacoma. Welcome in, Fred, tell you what?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah? Now is it a two thousand and six like mine?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Or no? Oh no, it's brand new?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Okay, thank you?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Oh yeah, Oh I'm a toy I'm Toyota man.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Now, so you don't have you don't still have a
CD player inside your No?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
I really don't. Thanks, No, that's great. I love it.
But now I drive trucks. I've driven a Tundra and
that was real safe. That was good for him to
give me a Tundra. I'm a guy should be driving
on a giant truck. That's right, that that's safe. But uh,
I was fine with that. Now I've got the Tacoma.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I do enjoy that. When I pull into the parking
struck sure in Burbank parking my Tacoma right next to Petros's,
and it's like two different worlds. You know. It's like
mine was out of the eighteen hundreds and his is modern.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
You know. Just here's the thing, do yours have charm.
Sure it's like an antique.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, yeh yeah, Okay, well you know and listen, we're
you know what we're I am grateful at three hundred
and eighty thousand miles on that bad boy and U
and still uh still churning. Never change the engine, never really, yeah,
never changed the engine. Drove it off the lot in
Seami Valley in two thousand and six with nine miles
(14:42):
on it. It just it had just been test driven,
had it ever since? I'm a fancy change your pholstery
in the seats. No, God, no, please, AD's character. There's
a few stains here and there. You know, Ken Packett
got loose for my son a couple of times. You know,
this is that, But that's you know, that's par for
the course. But yeah, two thousand and six, three hundred
(15:03):
and eighty still rolling.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I've never had a car that long, three hundred and
eighty thousand miles. I actually didn't know they ran that long.
I thought there was an expiration date like a can
of peaches.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I'm hoping that.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Oh no, this is great. You're a testament to what
taking care of your vehicle will mean. And I think
people listening should understand this. You've just given them great
life advice.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Which is exactly why it's insulting for you to dismiss
al Horford is a potential option for the Lakers at center.
As we followed the thread of the show, which is
aide shaming by Fred Rogan as Al Horford is a
potential fit for the Lakers and free agency.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
That is not true again, but thank you, thank you
for creating that narrative that isn't remotely true. But we
will rest what you're talking about when we come back.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
Make AM five seventy LA Sports a preset before you
plug in your foote presets in the iHeartRadio app now
available with Apple CarPlay and Android autom Just another easy
way to listen to LA's best sports talk.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Hi Jonas Knaxen today for Rodney Dodger tickets, give him
away soon. Get ready for warned his forearmed, So now
you know, get ready to win. Don't call yet, don't
do it, don't make that mistake, but get ready to
win because your time is coming. And I didn't appreciate
the crack about me saying Al Horford was like Methuselah.
(16:38):
You know, I'd never suggested he was that old. I
just thought he would be a very good pairing with
Lebron James. They'd have a lot in common, They're from
the same generation. Why would that indicate I thought he
was really old?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
It was kind of a dismissive commentary on his age,
you know. Meanwhile, I don't think so. Meanwhile, Corey Perry,
you know that's a whole different story.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
You know, he's forty. You know, I'm not saying these
guys are the AARP, but they're not young. Well, I
believe you were.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Your exact quote on al Horford was what is he like?
Forty nine?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Now watch but I you know what, I said it
in an endearing way.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Did you.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Yeah, right, when you think somebody's you know, you should
do try that with your wife, say happy birthday and
add ten years to it and see how that lands.
Everybody should try that listening, try that.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Just yeahn I wasn't. I wasn't trying. I didn't really
know how old he was.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
So the first number you go to was forty eight,
forty nine?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Well, yeah, because I know he'd been around a while.
That's why I saw nothing wrong with it. I mean,
Corey Perry's forty he's playing. Al Horford is thirty nine.
We know how old Lebron is.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
And apparently Nolan Aeronado looks like he's fifty. Is that
that's what you said too, despite the fact that he's
like thirty three or thirty four.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I didn't say he looked fifty. I said he looked
thirty eight. And I don't even know why is it?
Speaker 4 (18:01):
You know?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Here's it. First of all, Al Horford is the guy
the Lakers should get instead of the alternative DeAndre Aiden. Yeah,
Al Horford's the guy.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Let's be honest, Fred, you'd rather the Lakers sign the
night Stalker than DeAndre Aidon At this point, I mean
you You've got it in for DeAndre Ayton like I've
never seen before. It's really like, it's impressive. You really
are convinced that this is going to be a disaster.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Well, I look Portland, they bought him out and he
left for pennies on the dollar. He wanted out. They
wanted him out. The hit piece in the Athletic about it,
the tardiness to team flights and practices, the skipping of
rehab appointments. Fans saw him slamm chairs when he was
taken out of a game. There were tantrums in the
(18:53):
locker room when he was sidelined for poor effort. When
eight and a the envisioned to himself is the cornerstone,
the big Fish, and acted like it. He was carefree
and loud off and blurting out songs or off hand
comments in the locker room when some reporters laughed, some
at the other times didn't, and veterans at their lockers
(19:15):
rolled their eyes. That is not okay. You know, if
we're calling for a reference that would not be considered
a solid reference.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Okay, So you go to Portland. Yeah, immediately you realize
you're gonna be terrible, like just as a team, you're
not gonna win a lot of games, you're not competing
for a title. That those dreams and hopes are gone.
So you find a guy who still manages to walk
(19:47):
through the locker room and whistle and try and keep
everything upbeat and show some passion and some heart that
he throws chairs and gets upset when he's pulled from
games and is missing team flights because he's getting an
extra workout in and you deem that as not a
(20:08):
fit for us. He's got to go elsewhere. He's a
potential fit for the Lakers, and you're going to diminish
him and take the side of this hit piece against
the great DeAndre Aiden all because he went to Tucson
and not Tempe.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
No, it had nothing to do with that. I mean,
it really had absolutely nothing to do with that. I
just I saw and look, and the Lakers might end
up with him. And if they do, you know, you
hope he performs, You hope he plays well. But I
don't think that's the guy. Well, it might have to
be the guy who's left.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Al Horford.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Al Horford, what did you think of Yovonn making the
point earlier when we talked to him that the reason
brook Lopez ended up with the Clippers and not the
Lakers is because the Lakers prioritized DeAndre Aiden over brook Lopez.
Do you buy that?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
I find that really bizarre, to be honest with you.
And he said, he said the minute that the Lakers
found out that DeAndre Aiden was going to be bought out,
that their thinking changed immediately. That would indicate to me
they think they might have a deal in place. But
Johan also said, you better watch out for the Pacers
because they have money and they might go get him.
(21:24):
I mean, why even mess with this, Just go get
Al Horford.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Wait, you're surprised that the Lakers would have immediate interest
once eate and hit the market. A guy's averaged sixteen
and ten and is twenty six years.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Old, right? How many games?
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Again?
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Last year forty and the year before fifty five?
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Just saying if you just take everything in a vacuum,
and you can't one guy's twenty six and at Horford's
thirty nine, Brook Lopez, I think it's thirty seven, at
thirty eight. Eighton fits from a profile standpoint, exactly what
Luka dotc likes to play with. From a basketball standpoint,
it makes sense. The problem is there's a bunch of
other things to have to consider. But yeah, it wouldn't
surprise me if all of a sudden he became available
(22:03):
and the Lakers would be interested. That doesn't make sense
to you.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
I'm not saying it doesn't make sense, But we do
have we do have institutional knowledge, you know, we have
the benefit of information, and there's that, And I'm just saying,
unless he has just been you know, misunderstood, unless he's
been misunderstood, then there's an issue. Years ago. The Lakers
(22:29):
are playing the Nuggets in the playoffs, and I'll never
forget Kareem kept saying, you know, people just don't understand me.
They don't understand me, that's the problem. And we walk
into the arena in Denver, and across the arena is
this giant banner and it says, the problem is Kareem,
(22:53):
we do understand. I thought that was hilarious. The problem
is Kareem I don't understand. And and I never forgot that.
And Kareem was a very good guy. I don't know
if you knew him or know him, I should say,
really terrific, always always kind to me. But de Andre
eight and wherever he's been, it hasn't It's not like
(23:17):
he has been the ultimate team guy. He hasn't been.
And why would you need that headache? If you can
get Al Horford sign him for a year, that's great.
It coincides from Lebron's up. Then you'll have even more
money to go out and get the new center for
(23:38):
Luca down the road.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Are the Lakers closer at this point or further away
from competing for a Western Conference finals than they were
when the season ended against Minnesota?
Speaker 1 (23:50):
You know what's funny if you think about it, because
everybody got really excited last year. Yea, oh my god,
they're appreciably better. I don't know what they can do
to be any better than they were last year. I
don't know what that piece is. I mean, Austin Reeves
needs to continue to improve. Ruey's got to play well,
(24:11):
They've got to get a little more rim protection, and
you let the chips fall where they may. Are they
as good as Oklahoma City? They beat them once? Not impossible?
Are they better than Dallas? I think Houston will be
a real problem now. Yea, even if they didn't have
Kevin Garnett, Houston would be a real problem. Durrant, Oh,
(24:35):
I said Garnet. How old am I Kevin Durant? Yeah,
Houston would be a real problem.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
I'm more of a Kevin Figures guy myself. But again,
to each their own.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
Well, he wasn't available. But they're going to be a problem.
They are athletic. Minnesota's going to be a problem. So
I don't know. Even looking at the Lakers with Luca
and Lebron right now, could they win it next year? Maybe?
But you can't consider them one of the favorites. So
(25:03):
I don't know how much better they are right now
than they were when the season ended.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
I'm gonna take a look at something there. Who would
you think has longer odds at a title next year?
Lakers are Clippers? Bee had to guess right now, Clippers? Okay,
let me just go ahead.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I'm gonna say Clippers. I think Luca and Lebron together
give the Lakers a better shot.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Okay, give me one if you just for me. Oh yeah,
you're right. Lakers are ten to one currently to win
the West. The Clippers are seventeen to one. Yeah, And
the team's favored ahead of the Lakers right now to
win the West are the Thunder, the Rockets, the Nuggets,
and the Tea Wolves. The Warriors kind of in the
mix there as.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Well, too, makes sense to me.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah, then you got the Clippers sitting there at seventeen
to one.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Where's Dallas?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Dallas is twenty to one.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Okay, Well they need to say we'll never know what
happened with that Mark Williams deal. That's another thing that
was so weird. And then he ends up in Phoenix.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Well, according to you, I mean, just go back to
the to the old Western days where you give him
like a shot of bourbon and uh, and that should
that should fix it whatever issue was that he couldn't
pass his physical with.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
So, yeah, that should cure what ails you. Absolutely, that
should take care of it.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
You imagine that like Mark's game. Man. I don't know, man,
I just don't don't feel like I can get as
much out of these workouts as I used to. Something's
going on internally. Ah, no problem, here's a shot of bourbon. Uh,
just go ahead and take this and then come back
in an hour and then we'll try you again. Maybe well,
don't even come back in an hour. Just take it,
sit down for ten minutes, and then we're ready to go.
(26:40):
It doesn't take that long to work.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Has the bourbon like his version of Popeye Spinach, get
them all stuped up, I'm ready to go. Was it
was it Ron or test who used to take shots
in the locker room and have time? Did he say
that when he played in Indiana?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah? I think so. I think.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
I don't know if it was shots of bourbon or
tequila or whatever it.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Was, Uh Marshaw, Yeah it was Cavasier.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Was that checks out? Makes sense?
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah? No, I think Marshawn Lynch said he did Kevasier,
I think or was it Hennessy? And I remember he
like he was talking to Peyton Manning about it. They
were having they were in an interview and Peyton man
was like, oh uh, you know it heard you like
would drink before games? Yeah, do a shot of Hennessy.
(27:25):
He's like, you didn't. Peyton man is like, nos an fact, No,
I did not. It's not that's not the norm. Got
I don't know how that works.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Remember the goalie you probably don't. He played for the
Bakersfield Condors of the then East Coast Hockey League. I
read a book on this and this guy between periods
of go out and smoke, take out his paths, walk outside,
light one up, oh long dart, Oh yeah, get back
in there for the next period.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Good for him.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
I do have a by the way, audio of that
exchange between Peyton Manning Marshawn Lynch.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
If you want to hear it, Oh, we want to
hear it for yours. What was your My silver sedution
was that I needed to have maybe a shot a
shot and a half before every gang of Hennessy.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
What I was thinking, Yeah, gator radee I don't know
what I was thinking about. And there's a bar right
there in the locker room in Seattle. Schneider and backpack.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
It's just like two different worlds of preparation.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
I also just love is like like, obviously, Hennessy, what
the hell's wrong with you? How dare you ask me
that question?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
What's the matter with it? And Peyton Manning's reaction was gonna.
I was, you know, maybe toward all or something, you know,
which is you know, like that's real edgy, you know,
like you're trying to basically numb the pain to get
out there on the field. And Marshall Lynch's like, no,
bringing booze in my backpack right all through.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
And that's what it was in the Old West. And
as I tried to explain to you earlier, that's how
they took care of it.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I mean, ye'll drinking airplanes, I get it.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
I mean, you know I can't drink on airplanes.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Yeah, I don't really either.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Something that's not good for you. I didn't mean you won't,
you shouldn't do it, but it's not good for you.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Why is it not good for you? Exactly, doctor Rogan?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
The altitude, it's the altitude, it dehydrates you. Yeah, and
then you're drinking out alcohol. It's not a good combination.
I mean, you know you've been on planes where guys
get just sloppy drunk.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Oh yeah, I've been to like I've been to a
Raider game or two in my life. We're all flowing
out of Burbank Airport on a Sunday mornings.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Oh geez.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
Some of those guys are plastered before they even get
on the plane.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So yeah, because what I mean, in order to make
the game for a one pm kickoff, you would have
to leave Burbank at what like seven.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Eight Usually it's around between seven and eight.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
And and so you know, the bar there, I'm sure
open to six o'clock. And so they're freak training screwdrivers
before the plane leaves. It's just there is something about
Burbank Airport though, just so easy, just out, just rock
and roll. Then you go to La Axid it's just well,
completely miserable.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Burbank Airport, according to the Washington Post, was ranked just
one of the top twenty five airports in the country.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Should be I believe it.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Yeah, yeah. The only problem with Burbank and there's only
one problem and if you can fly at it, that
you should because it's pretty easy.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Your face is no longer plasted all over the place
there for it.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
That really pissed me off. Ohay, that really pissed me off.
They tapped it up there for a year and a
half after I worked there, and then they redid the pictures.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
All right, all because of the Channel four association.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
And yeah, I was up there for a year and
a half, but then they finally redid them. I think
somebody saw my picture and went, wait a minute, does
he still work there? And they went, no, okay, we'll
change him.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Did you get paid for that any royalties? The fact
that you're, you know, going there to the Hudson Market
to grab you know, a water, they see your face
up there, shouldn't you get some sort of compidence?
Speaker 1 (30:57):
You get nothing. No, you get nothing. But I'll tell
you what, more people saw me at the airport than
saw me on TV. Key at the end, I promise
you that pees that's true. I used to tell the
people at Channel four. The most visibility I get is
not sitting here every night, it's being on at the airport.
And everybody sees this at.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
The airport in the words of Jim Lampley hard right
hand by Rogan.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
But here's the problem with Burbank Airport. If you don't
carry your bag on right, you have to check your bag.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Yeah, that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
They have two baggage carousels over there about the southwest side. Yeah,
and it can take forever. Yeah. And let's face it,
they don't have to go that far. The airport's not
that big.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
You could walk into if you are TSA pre check
and you are not checking a bag, and your flight
is at say eight am, you could walk up at
seven five and make your flight easy, walk right through,
(32:03):
not checking a bag, TSA pre check, and you were
there at gate or A one or a two. You
probably can do it at seven thirty if the if
the gates close at seven point forty and you're walking
through the front of Burbank at seven thirty, you're probably
gonna make your flight, no problem.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Yeah, absolutely no, it's it's great. It's easy in and out,
it really is. And even if you go on the
other side, not the southwest side. What's the other side
of Alaska? Maybe Spirit, I don't know who's over there.
Somebody's on the other side, oh Spirit, Yeah, Yeah, they're
I think they're over there. It's it's not quite as quick,
(32:43):
but it's still easy. It really is. Yeah, Burke Black
Airport is good. Yeah, and that's why somebody drunk people
got on Southwest Airlines and go see the rainers, including you.
Apparently back in the day.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
I didn't say I was drunk. I said I was
on there with drunk people. Now did I have a
drink or two? Possibly?
Speaker 1 (33:01):
There? You know what you tell us what you want,
We hear what you say. Just look at it like that.
Who is going to see Clayton Kershaw go for three
thousand strikeouts tomorrow night? Eight six, six, nine eighty seven, two,
five seventy. What caller number will win? Jonas caller four.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
We've made it even easier to take LA Sports with
you this summer. Make AM five to seventy or your
favorite AM five seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on
the iHeartRadio app using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto road
Trip all summer with LA Sports.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
All right, as we uh move to conclude, congratulations to
Andrew and Beaumont. You think that's Beaumont, Texas?
Speaker 2 (33:49):
I mean Kershaw's from Texas, right, He's from Highland Park.
Yeah maybe all right, well, or it's probably Beaumont from
out here. But Andrew, congratulations, you've done it. You're going
to the game to have the best time, and make
sure you take pictures.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
That's awesome, records videos, take some pictures, be a part
of history. So when he gets to you know, about
to get number three thousand, do what everybody in the
stadium will do. Stand point your phone at the direction
of the mound and start recording. Now, despite the fact
he'll look like an ant probably from where you're sitting,
(34:25):
you'll still record that. And then why would you show
that to somebody? I always find that interesting. You can
see everybody with their phone up Otani's pitching. You're in
the left field pavilion. It's going to be a little tough,
but yet people record everything. So you'll have that chance tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
I mean, you know, you could zoom in after the
fact and make it seem like you're a little bit closer.
You know, some people like to do that. You'll sit
in the quote unquote nosebleeds and then potentially just zoom
in and make it seem like you're close.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Yeah, but if you zoom in from there, how much
can you really zoom?
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Because it depends on the phone, it depends on what
kind of technology we're working with here. I mean, just
to be in the stadium for that moment is gonna
be awesome.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
That'd be cool.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Yeah, he's gonna have a damn good time. Now. Again,
just hope that he doesn't record his three thousand strikeout
on a check swing. That's anti climac Like if they've
got to point down to first to see whether or
not the guy went around, then it just gets like,
oh okay, Like it's not as cool as opposed to
just a knee buckling twelve to six curveball that just
(35:38):
sits in the zone and freezes a guy. That's the
perfect strikeout for Clayton Kershaw. That would be symbolic of
his career with the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
So let's say the guy checks on three thousand, On
three thousand and one, he throws that pitch. I mean,
once it gets to three thousand, now it's onward and upward.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yeah, but I would also like it just I want
the moment to be perfect. I don't want there to
be like, oh, you know, it's like like you know,
I guess it was a strike or a disputed strike,
you know, something like that, to where somebody from the
White Sox is bitching about the call, like you just
you want it to be perfect so people can appreciate
the moment, and Andrew and Beaumont is gonna be there
(36:22):
to see it all. Or how about this?
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Yeah, so strike three, but the ball gets away from
the catcher. Yea, and the runner is safe on first
That still counts in the stat sheet as a strikeout. Yes,
that's probably above anything else that you don't want.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
That would be pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
On a damn pass ball, that's what's the difference.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
He's still struck out.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Strikes out, ball gets away from Will Smith or rushing.
They have to run back to the backstop and pick
it up. But the runner's safe at the at first base.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Wait a minute, they run back. It's rushing. He runs back,
He picks it up. He thinks he can get the guy.
He throws it into the right field corner. Oh no,
the runner moves to second. Hernandez goes over, picks up
the ball. The runners coming to third, Tao fires it
bounces past Monthsye runner scores. He gets his three thousand
strikeout on a home run. What do you think of that?
Speaker 2 (37:16):
Would that be considered a home runner? There's a lot
of errors involved there.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Well, it would be considered on a run score.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Yeah, I think Peter will be playing yackety sacks on
the organ. If that's happening, you know why the guys
are on the fields, KOs celebrating three thousand.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
They played yackety sack or the Benny Hill theme, right.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
Yeah, Well it all happened tomorrow one way or the other.
And Andrew, you're going all right, Ronnie, thank you, great work.
Terrific work today, Kevin, good job, Jonas. This is so
much fun. But again, you're not coming back tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
I will not be here tomorrow. No, I will not
be here tomorrow, but we'll be back next week.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Where are you going tomorrow?
Speaker 2 (37:53):
None of your business? Right, Maybe I'm waiting in Dodger Stadium,
waiting in the parking lot to try and to try
and get in for the tickets to drop, you know.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Okay, start looking five minutes before the game.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
All right, I'm gonna park in Lot F next to
the light pole.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
That's the key to success. Yes, I'd leave now and
go okay, all right, see them out
And we continue on Jonas Knox in today for Rodney
and five to seventy LA Sports. This is the hour.
Somebody's one of those tickets. Somebody's gonna see Clayton Kershaw
to go for three thousand strikeouts tomorrow night against the
White Sox. Somebody's gonna win this hour. Hell yeah, So
be ready to call because you can't just get these
tickets off the street. These are good seats you will
(00:23):
be inside Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I mean, tickets are expensive for that game.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
I know, I know they are. So the good news
you'll have a chance to win, and we'll give you
a queue to call.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Not to derail anything, but yeah, I just brought I
thought I brought up a point with Ronnie. Can you
even scalp tickets anymore?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It's not even a thing right out in front of
the stadium.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, everything's digital, right, so you can't even can't just
hold up your iPhone like tickets, tickets? Who wants tickets?
Can you? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I remember the good old days where people couldn't say
it would be them asking for tickets, you could. They
couldn't say they had tickets rail to get busted say that.
They'd say hey, you got any tickets, and that would
be the uh, hey you know I got I got
two pair?
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Here?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Third baseline out? What are you thinking? And then you
started haggling with them on the price. Those days feel
like they're long gone.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Now, well, wait a minute, couldn't you stand out in
front of the stadium now just hold up your phone
and go tickets and watch tickets and then just electronically
transferred to them.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Yeah, it doesn't feels cool now, Like there's something about
getting the actual physical tickets from somebody you shouldn't be
buying from that feels more edgy, you know what I mean,
Like it just feels like it's an edgier way to go.
It's like when you would go to Vegas, or in
Fred's case, you go to Whiskey Pete's State Line and
(01:41):
you would want a slot machine. Now they'll give you
a voucher and that's cool and all, But it used
to be the good old days where there'd be a
plastic bucket next to the slot machine and you'd put
it under and hear all the coins empty into the bucket.
There was something.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, that's much better.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah, there's nothing about it. There's something about having just
hard copy tickets in your hands. But you know, it's
much easier to get in and out of the stadium
if you just scan your phone. But yeah, scalpers, I
don't know if they'll still exist anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I think you can do it if you're standing in
front of the stadium and somebody walks up and it's
the old tickets, tick whatever, You pay them and they
electronically transfer it to you. The problem with that is this,
who says they'll really transfer the tickets. Oh it didn't.
I'm sorry. You gave me your money, but it didn't work.
I don't know what to tell you. That's a problem.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Well, then it's a standof feels like, well, transfer the tickets,
then i'll give you the money. It's like, no, we'll
give me the money, then i'll transfer the tickets. You're
just standing there staring at each other.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Well, by the sixth thinning, they'll have it figured out.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I'm sure, right when people are still arriving.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Are you one of the people. Do you do this?
I know people that have done this. They go and
pay for parking at Dodger Stadium. They have no tickets
and they just sit and wait. They could wait through
the first half inning of the game and just wait
for the ticket prices to drop. Then they buy him
and hurry and go in. Do you know anybody like that?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I did it on accident one time, not Dodger Stadium,
and it wasn't parking. I did it on accident to
where I was in Chicago. We were out there on
a trip. We were going to go see a Cubs
Cardinals game, and my buddy and I said, you know,
why don't we go get a drink before the game.
That turned into like seventeen drinks and next thing you
(03:29):
know we realized is we're in Murphy's bleachers across from
Wrigley Field. We realized, oh, it's the fourth inning, Albert
Poohols has batted three times already. We should probably get
in there. But yeah, I mean, the tickets were cheaper
and we were just sitting in the bleachers. But you know,
that was on accident. I was unaware of people that
were like, all, sacrifice a half inning for ten dollars
(03:51):
off these tickets. I didn't know that that was a
real thing. I don't.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, I know people like that, Kevin, you know anybody
liked that?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
No, But I mean that ten dollars is big. They
can save you like no half a hot dog, an
amazing league stadium. Saw.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I mean that's like it's a pretty significant game. Like
if that ten dollars is really that much of a
pain in the ass, just like drink one less drink? Like,
I don't know, So what are we talking about it?
Get in there and watch the game.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
But no, you mentioned Chicago. So my family, Now, we
were in Chicago a couple of months ago. The Cubs
are playing the Padres, and we did not buy our
tickets until maybe ninety minutes before the game started. That
was intentional because we knew the tickets would be cheaper.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
And how much cheaper were they.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
We checked the night before. It was probably twenty five
bucks total, not per ticket, but total for for the
it was the four of us. Well, it's not nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I mean I.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Wouldn't drop the prices on those until right before the game. Nowadays,
with everything being digital and you're not needing a hard
copy to get in, I'm not dropping the prices until
right before.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Yeah, but you get in the stadium and just parks
there and waits for that to happen. I mean, you're
in the parking lot that actional anthem is being sung.
They dropped the price of the tickets. You walk in,
you're in for the first pitch.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I mean, look, man, people have interesting ways they go
about taking in a Dodger game. Like remember the people
we talked to who are waiting for the bobbleheads, and
they were like they had brought hot dogs with them.
They brought food into the parking lot and were ready
to make it an afternoon and just spend the afternoon
in the Dodger Stadium parking lot to be one of
(05:27):
the first fans in for a bobblehead. People have interesting
ways to take in a game. I mean, remember you
that time you gave out parking advice on where to
park at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yes, it's the secret spot, the only spot.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
I think. Fred does it opening day every year. It's
become a tradition where Fred talks about the secret spot.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Right, do you remember what lot it's in? Gee, I'm
not going to confirm that because it is because because
if I confirm or deny it, then you'll have another
shot at it.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
So the secret line that you give out every single
year won't be a secret anymore. Despite the fact that again.
You've given it out every single year for the last
five years. This is like Tetros's secret textosa is it
a secret to be given out every year?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I was just going to say that I'm not giving
that to you. What do you mean give it out
every year? I mean that is a good way to
make people go back and listen to the podcast, though,
I mean, all.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Right, listen, I'll tell you where it is. For those
of you who have not heard where it is, I
will only tell you the lot. But if you don't
know the spot, you can guess the spot. But if
you don't know the spot, then that's on you. It's
Lot F, Lot F Park. In Lot F, there is
one spot that is the best spot at Dodger Stadium
(06:46):
in parking one. If you park there, you will be
out in one minute. I don't care what happens, You'll
be right out now.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
How did you stumble upon this?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I appreciate you asking. I simply parked at one time,
and and then I realized, wait a minute, when I
walked out right out, So the next time I went,
I parked there again. Then I started getting there early
so nobody else would get that spot. I didn't care
if I had to wait a bit before I went in,
(07:17):
I still got there early to get that spot because
that is the number one spot. It's lot F.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Any other media members try and fight you for that
spot or what?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
No, you have to pay for it. It's not free.
I pay for parking. I don't get media parking. I do,
but I don't use it. Why not Because I want
to park a lot F so I can get right out.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
So that's even faster than media parking to get out.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Oh yeah, well, media parking, you're up at the top.
When you come out, you can get stutt in traffic.
It takes you down out at sunset.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Now what what spot number and lot F are we
talking about?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
See, that's the question. Okay, there are no numbers, so
you have to know the exact place is it?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Now? I remember you telling this one time, and I
vaguely remember it's next to there's like a pole or
something like. There's there's something about like a corner pole,
like there's some like it's almost by itself, and that's
the way that you kind of cut through all the
uh all the after the right.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Fine, it's the light pole.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Okay, So I was just going but I didn't want
to sound dumb or even more dumb than I am,
so I cause I didn't want to say light pole
because that would narrow down to about three thousand lights
in a parking lot.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Right, So I can't be specific. But there it's the
light pole. And if you see the light pole, there
is one spot directly next to it, and you can park,
you can back in or come around behind, and you'll
go forward and you're out. And this spot has no
one on the side of you because of the light pole.
(09:01):
So it's like in gone. That's the number one spot
at Dodger Stadium in light half. Now, if you choose
to use it, that's on you. But that's it. That's
your tip. I usually give it away before opening day,
but I will do it again for you today.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
What a gift, What a gift from you. You just
helped a lot of people. Now now there's going to
be literally a Donnybrook next to that parking spot because
everybody's going to go there upon your recommendation. By the way,
here's another question for you, Fred. Are you a back
into the parking spot guy or pulling forth?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Good good man, that's a problem. I can't I can't
back in there.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
That is a good man.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Wait, you physically can't, or based on principle, you can't,
frett oh, physically can't. Okay, that's what I thought, you man.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
No, no, I have no choice. I hit everything. I
would just destroy everything in my wake. I can't do it.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
You can't go in reverse in your car?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Why I try to have him take reverse out so
it wouldn't even go backwards when I bought it. But
I didn't buy it. Guy gives it to me to drive,
but Toyota the desert. But uh no, I can't back in.
I'm bad at that. I'm terrible. I can't park. I
can't even parallel park.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
You know, if you can't back in, if you can't
go in reverse, they can have.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
That.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Some would say that's problematic.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Well, I just go around in circles.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
So then if you pull in phase forward, how do
you get out of it?
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I wait for the guy who's parked in front of me,
and then I just go out of his spot.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Okay, I mean it feels like life's difficult on the
road for you. That's what it feels like to me.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'm not saying that. Does anybody else have that problem?
I really cannot back into parking places. I think some
years ago, and and Matt will remember money Smith. Oh no,
it wasn't Matt. I told him about it. I saw
a guy trying to back into a spot in the
parking garage crashed right into one of those big cement posts.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Oh yeah, oh.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, what are you doing? Why would you do that?
Just pull in? Well, it just backing in. I don't
understand it.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
And also I don't know the percentages on this, but
I would say that more lazy people back into the
spot then pull forward into their parking spot when they
arrive somewhere.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
And why would you say lazy people?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Well, and I've had this discussion because I had it
with somebody who does back into their parking spot and
their thought is, well, no, no, no, I'm not really because
it takes more work to pull in and then go
and reverse and back in. I'm like no, But it
means that you're so ready to go by the time
work is over that you just want to pull right
out and you just want to exit the parking lot
(11:54):
or the structure and go about your day. For me,
you don't walk into someplace like imagine you're walking to
the ring at a WWF event or a WWE event
like imagine you're walking out to the octagon in the UFC.
Imagine you're making your entrance into a boxing like Imagine
if you know a closer walked backwards to the mound,
(12:18):
like Eric Ganye, imagine him going in reverse to the
mound to close games years ago. That would look odd
like moonwalking. He's arriving to the venue. You pull in
face forward, all right, and then maybe it takes an
extra second to back out and reverse and then leave
the structure of the spot that you're in. But at
least you're showing everybody I've got enough left in the
(12:40):
gas tank, so to speak, that I'm willing to do
the extra work at the end of my shift to
then leave. It's like gassers at the end of practice.
That's the way I look at it. It feels lazier
when you back into a spot.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I never really looked at it like that. I just
looked at it like this, I can't do it. I
thought you put a lot of thought into that, and
every bit of it made sense. Yeah, or you can
take my approach. I'd hit something and I don't want
to do that. I mean, I'm driving a truck. Now,
do I look like a truck guy to you?
Speaker 2 (13:10):
What kind of truck?
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Well, thanks for asking, I'll tell you exactly what kind
of truck. Toyot Toyota Tacoma. Welcome in, Fred, tell you what?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah? Now is it a two thousand and six like mine?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Or no? Oh no, it's brand new?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Okay, thank you?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Oh yeah, Oh I'm a toy I'm Toyota man.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Now, so you don't have you don't still have a
CD player inside your No?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
I really don't. Thanks, No, that's great. I love it.
But now I drive trucks. I've driven a Tundra and
that was real safe. That was good for him to
give me a Tundra. I'm a guy should be driving
on a giant truck. That's right, that that's safe. But uh,
I was fine with that. Now I've got the Tacoma.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I do enjoy that. When I pull into the parking
struck sure in Burbank parking my Tacoma right next to Petros's,
and it's like two different worlds. You know. It's like
mine was out of the eighteen hundreds and his is modern.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
You know. Just here's the thing, do yours have charm.
Sure it's like an antique.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, yeh yeah, Okay, well you know and listen, we're
you know what we're I am grateful at three hundred
and eighty thousand miles on that bad boy and U
and still uh still churning. Never change the engine, never really, yeah,
never changed the engine. Drove it off the lot in
Seami Valley in two thousand and six with nine miles
(14:42):
on it. It just it had just been test driven,
had it ever since? I'm a fancy change your pholstery
in the seats. No, God, no, please, AD's character. There's
a few stains here and there. You know, Ken Packett
got loose for my son a couple of times. You know,
this is that, But that's you know, that's par for
the course. But yeah, two thousand and six, three hundred
(15:03):
and eighty still rolling.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I've never had a car that long, three hundred and
eighty thousand miles. I actually didn't know they ran that long.
I thought there was an expiration date like a can
of peaches.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I'm hoping that.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Oh no, this is great. You're a testament to what
taking care of your vehicle will mean. And I think
people listening should understand this. You've just given them great
life advice.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Which is exactly why it's insulting for you to dismiss
al Horford is a potential option for the Lakers at center.
As we followed the thread of the show, which is
aide shaming by Fred Rogan as Al Horford is a
potential fit for the Lakers and free agency.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
That is not true again, but thank you, thank you
for creating that narrative that isn't remotely true. But we
will rest what you're talking about when we come back.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
Make AM five seventy LA Sports a preset before you
plug in your foote presets in the iHeartRadio app now
available with Apple CarPlay and Android autom Just another easy
way to listen to LA's best sports talk.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Hi Jonas Knaxen today for Rodney Dodger tickets, give him
away soon. Get ready for warned his forearmed, So now
you know, get ready to win. Don't call yet, don't
do it, don't make that mistake, but get ready to
win because your time is coming. And I didn't appreciate
the crack about me saying Al Horford was like Methuselah.
(16:38):
You know, I'd never suggested he was that old. I
just thought he would be a very good pairing with
Lebron James. They'd have a lot in common, They're from
the same generation. Why would that indicate I thought he
was really old?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
It was kind of a dismissive commentary on his age,
you know. Meanwhile, I don't think so. Meanwhile, Corey Perry,
you know that's a whole different story.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
You know, he's forty. You know, I'm not saying these
guys are the AARP, but they're not young. Well, I
believe you were.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Your exact quote on al Horford was what is he like?
Forty nine?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Now watch but I you know what, I said it
in an endearing way.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Did you.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Yeah, right, when you think somebody's you know, you should
do try that with your wife, say happy birthday and
add ten years to it and see how that lands.
Everybody should try that listening, try that.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Just yeahn I wasn't. I wasn't trying. I didn't really
know how old he was.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
So the first number you go to was forty eight,
forty nine?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Well, yeah, because I know he'd been around a while.
That's why I saw nothing wrong with it. I mean,
Corey Perry's forty he's playing. Al Horford is thirty nine.
We know how old Lebron is.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
And apparently Nolan Aeronado looks like he's fifty. Is that
that's what you said too, despite the fact that he's
like thirty three or thirty four.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I didn't say he looked fifty. I said he looked
thirty eight. And I don't even know why is it?
Speaker 4 (18:01):
You know?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Here's it. First of all, Al Horford is the guy
the Lakers should get instead of the alternative DeAndre Aiden. Yeah,
Al Horford's the guy.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Let's be honest, Fred, you'd rather the Lakers sign the
night Stalker than DeAndre Aidon At this point, I mean
you You've got it in for DeAndre Ayton like I've
never seen before. It's really like, it's impressive. You really
are convinced that this is going to be a disaster.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Well, I look Portland, they bought him out and he
left for pennies on the dollar. He wanted out. They
wanted him out. The hit piece in the Athletic about it,
the tardiness to team flights and practices, the skipping of
rehab appointments. Fans saw him slamm chairs when he was
taken out of a game. There were tantrums in the
(18:53):
locker room when he was sidelined for poor effort. When
eight and a the envisioned to himself is the cornerstone,
the big Fish, and acted like it. He was carefree
and loud off and blurting out songs or off hand
comments in the locker room when some reporters laughed, some
at the other times didn't, and veterans at their lockers
(19:15):
rolled their eyes. That is not okay. You know, if
we're calling for a reference that would not be considered
a solid reference.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Okay, So you go to Portland. Yeah, immediately you realize
you're gonna be terrible, like just as a team, you're
not gonna win a lot of games, you're not competing
for a title. That those dreams and hopes are gone.
So you find a guy who still manages to walk
(19:47):
through the locker room and whistle and try and keep
everything upbeat and show some passion and some heart that
he throws chairs and gets upset when he's pulled from
games and is missing team flights because he's getting an
extra workout in and you deem that as not a
(20:08):
fit for us. He's got to go elsewhere. He's a
potential fit for the Lakers, and you're going to diminish
him and take the side of this hit piece against
the great DeAndre Aiden all because he went to Tucson
and not Tempe.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
No, it had nothing to do with that. I mean,
it really had absolutely nothing to do with that. I
just I saw and look, and the Lakers might end
up with him. And if they do, you know, you
hope he performs, You hope he plays well. But I
don't think that's the guy. Well, it might have to
be the guy who's left.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Al Horford.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Al Horford, what did you think of Yovonn making the
point earlier when we talked to him that the reason
brook Lopez ended up with the Clippers and not the
Lakers is because the Lakers prioritized DeAndre Aiden over brook Lopez.
Do you buy that?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
I find that really bizarre, to be honest with you.
And he said, he said the minute that the Lakers
found out that DeAndre Aiden was going to be bought out,
that their thinking changed immediately. That would indicate to me
they think they might have a deal in place. But
Johan also said, you better watch out for the Pacers
because they have money and they might go get him.
(21:24):
I mean, why even mess with this, Just go get
Al Horford.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Wait, you're surprised that the Lakers would have immediate interest
once eate and hit the market. A guy's averaged sixteen
and ten and is twenty six years.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Old, right? How many games?
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Again?
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Last year forty and the year before fifty five?
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Just saying if you just take everything in a vacuum,
and you can't one guy's twenty six and at Horford's
thirty nine, Brook Lopez, I think it's thirty seven, at
thirty eight. Eighton fits from a profile standpoint, exactly what
Luka dotc likes to play with. From a basketball standpoint,
it makes sense. The problem is there's a bunch of
other things to have to consider. But yeah, it wouldn't
surprise me if all of a sudden he became available
(22:03):
and the Lakers would be interested. That doesn't make sense
to you.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
I'm not saying it doesn't make sense, But we do
have we do have institutional knowledge, you know, we have
the benefit of information, and there's that, And I'm just saying,
unless he has just been you know, misunderstood, unless he's
been misunderstood, then there's an issue. Years ago. The Lakers
(22:29):
are playing the Nuggets in the playoffs, and I'll never
forget Kareem kept saying, you know, people just don't understand me.
They don't understand me, that's the problem. And we walk
into the arena in Denver, and across the arena is
this giant banner and it says, the problem is Kareem,
(22:53):
we do understand. I thought that was hilarious. The problem
is Kareem I don't understand. And and I never forgot that.
And Kareem was a very good guy. I don't know
if you knew him or know him, I should say,
really terrific, always always kind to me. But de Andre
eight and wherever he's been, it hasn't It's not like
(23:17):
he has been the ultimate team guy. He hasn't been.
And why would you need that headache? If you can
get Al Horford sign him for a year, that's great.
It coincides from Lebron's up. Then you'll have even more
money to go out and get the new center for
(23:38):
Luca down the road.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Are the Lakers closer at this point or further away
from competing for a Western Conference finals than they were
when the season ended against Minnesota?
Speaker 1 (23:50):
You know what's funny if you think about it, because
everybody got really excited last year. Yea, oh my god,
they're appreciably better. I don't know what they can do
to be any better than they were last year. I
don't know what that piece is. I mean, Austin Reeves
needs to continue to improve. Ruey's got to play well,
(24:11):
They've got to get a little more rim protection, and
you let the chips fall where they may. Are they
as good as Oklahoma City? They beat them once? Not impossible?
Are they better than Dallas? I think Houston will be
a real problem now. Yea, even if they didn't have
Kevin Garnett, Houston would be a real problem. Durrant, Oh,
(24:35):
I said Garnet. How old am I Kevin Durant? Yeah,
Houston would be a real problem.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
I'm more of a Kevin Figures guy myself. But again,
to each their own.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
Well, he wasn't available. But they're going to be a problem.
They are athletic. Minnesota's going to be a problem. So
I don't know. Even looking at the Lakers with Luca
and Lebron right now, could they win it next year? Maybe?
But you can't consider them one of the favorites. So
(25:03):
I don't know how much better they are right now
than they were when the season ended.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
I'm gonna take a look at something there. Who would
you think has longer odds at a title next year?
Lakers are Clippers? Bee had to guess right now, Clippers? Okay,
let me just go ahead.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I'm gonna say Clippers. I think Luca and Lebron together
give the Lakers a better shot.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Okay, give me one if you just for me. Oh yeah,
you're right. Lakers are ten to one currently to win
the West. The Clippers are seventeen to one. Yeah, And
the team's favored ahead of the Lakers right now to
win the West are the Thunder, the Rockets, the Nuggets,
and the Tea Wolves. The Warriors kind of in the
mix there as.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Well, too, makes sense to me.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah, then you got the Clippers sitting there at seventeen
to one.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Where's Dallas?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Dallas is twenty to one.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Okay, Well they need to say we'll never know what
happened with that Mark Williams deal. That's another thing that
was so weird. And then he ends up in Phoenix.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Well, according to you, I mean, just go back to
the to the old Western days where you give him
like a shot of bourbon and uh, and that should
that should fix it whatever issue was that he couldn't
pass his physical with.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
So, yeah, that should cure what ails you. Absolutely, that
should take care of it.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
You imagine that like Mark's game. Man. I don't know, man,
I just don't don't feel like I can get as
much out of these workouts as I used to. Something's
going on internally. Ah, no problem, here's a shot of bourbon. Uh,
just go ahead and take this and then come back
in an hour and then we'll try you again. Maybe well,
don't even come back in an hour. Just take it,
sit down for ten minutes, and then we're ready to go.
(26:40):
It doesn't take that long to work.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Has the bourbon like his version of Popeye Spinach, get
them all stuped up, I'm ready to go. Was it
was it Ron or test who used to take shots
in the locker room and have time? Did he say
that when he played in Indiana?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah? I think so. I think.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
I don't know if it was shots of bourbon or
tequila or whatever it.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Was, Uh Marshaw, Yeah it was Cavasier.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Was that checks out? Makes sense?
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah? No, I think Marshawn Lynch said he did Kevasier,
I think or was it Hennessy? And I remember he
like he was talking to Peyton Manning about it. They
were having they were in an interview and Peyton man
was like, oh uh, you know it heard you like
would drink before games? Yeah, do a shot of Hennessy.
(27:25):
He's like, you didn't. Peyton man is like, nos an fact, No,
I did not. It's not that's not the norm. Got
I don't know how that works.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Remember the goalie you probably don't. He played for the
Bakersfield Condors of the then East Coast Hockey League. I
read a book on this and this guy between periods
of go out and smoke, take out his paths, walk outside,
light one up, oh long dart, Oh yeah, get back
in there for the next period.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Good for him.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
I do have a by the way, audio of that
exchange between Peyton Manning Marshawn Lynch.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
If you want to hear it, Oh, we want to
hear it for yours. What was your My silver sedution
was that I needed to have maybe a shot a
shot and a half before every gang of Hennessy.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
What I was thinking, Yeah, gator radee I don't know
what I was thinking about. And there's a bar right
there in the locker room in Seattle. Schneider and backpack.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
It's just like two different worlds of preparation.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
I also just love is like like, obviously, Hennessy, what
the hell's wrong with you? How dare you ask me
that question?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
What's the matter with it? And Peyton Manning's reaction was gonna.
I was, you know, maybe toward all or something, you know,
which is you know, like that's real edgy, you know,
like you're trying to basically numb the pain to get
out there on the field. And Marshall Lynch's like, no,
bringing booze in my backpack right all through.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
And that's what it was in the Old West. And
as I tried to explain to you earlier, that's how
they took care of it.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I mean, ye'll drinking airplanes, I get it.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
I mean, you know I can't drink on airplanes.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Yeah, I don't really either.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Something that's not good for you. I didn't mean you won't,
you shouldn't do it, but it's not good for you.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Why is it not good for you? Exactly, doctor Rogan?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
The altitude, it's the altitude, it dehydrates you. Yeah, and
then you're drinking out alcohol. It's not a good combination.
I mean, you know you've been on planes where guys
get just sloppy drunk.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Oh yeah, I've been to like I've been to a
Raider game or two in my life. We're all flowing
out of Burbank Airport on a Sunday mornings.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Oh geez.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
Some of those guys are plastered before they even get
on the plane.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So yeah, because what I mean, in order to make
the game for a one pm kickoff, you would have
to leave Burbank at what like seven.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Eight Usually it's around between seven and eight.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
And and so you know, the bar there, I'm sure
open to six o'clock. And so they're freak training screwdrivers
before the plane leaves. It's just there is something about
Burbank Airport though, just so easy, just out, just rock
and roll. Then you go to La Axid it's just well,
completely miserable.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Burbank Airport, according to the Washington Post, was ranked just
one of the top twenty five airports in the country.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Should be I believe it.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Yeah, yeah. The only problem with Burbank and there's only
one problem and if you can fly at it, that
you should because it's pretty easy.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Your face is no longer plasted all over the place
there for it.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
That really pissed me off. Ohay, that really pissed me off.
They tapped it up there for a year and a
half after I worked there, and then they redid the pictures.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
All right, all because of the Channel four association.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
And yeah, I was up there for a year and
a half, but then they finally redid them. I think
somebody saw my picture and went, wait a minute, does
he still work there? And they went, no, okay, we'll
change him.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Did you get paid for that any royalties? The fact
that you're, you know, going there to the Hudson Market
to grab you know, a water, they see your face
up there, shouldn't you get some sort of compidence?
Speaker 1 (30:57):
You get nothing. No, you get nothing. But I'll tell
you what, more people saw me at the airport than
saw me on TV. Key at the end, I promise
you that pees that's true. I used to tell the
people at Channel four. The most visibility I get is
not sitting here every night, it's being on at the airport.
And everybody sees this at.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
The airport in the words of Jim Lampley hard right
hand by Rogan.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
But here's the problem with Burbank Airport. If you don't
carry your bag on right, you have to check your bag.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Yeah, that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
They have two baggage carousels over there about the southwest side. Yeah,
and it can take forever. Yeah. And let's face it,
they don't have to go that far. The airport's not
that big.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
You could walk into if you are TSA pre check
and you are not checking a bag, and your flight
is at say eight am, you could walk up at
seven five and make your flight easy, walk right through,
(32:03):
not checking a bag, TSA pre check, and you were
there at gate or A one or a two. You
probably can do it at seven thirty if the if
the gates close at seven point forty and you're walking
through the front of Burbank at seven thirty, you're probably
gonna make your flight, no problem.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Yeah, absolutely no, it's it's great. It's easy in and out,
it really is. And even if you go on the
other side, not the southwest side. What's the other side
of Alaska? Maybe Spirit, I don't know who's over there.
Somebody's on the other side, oh Spirit, Yeah, Yeah, they're
I think they're over there. It's it's not quite as quick,
(32:43):
but it's still easy. It really is. Yeah, Burke Black
Airport is good. Yeah, and that's why somebody drunk people
got on Southwest Airlines and go see the rainers, including you.
Apparently back in the day.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
I didn't say I was drunk. I said I was
on there with drunk people. Now did I have a
drink or two? Possibly?
Speaker 1 (33:01):
There? You know what you tell us what you want,
We hear what you say. Just look at it like that.
Who is going to see Clayton Kershaw go for three
thousand strikeouts tomorrow night? Eight six, six, nine eighty seven, two,
five seventy. What caller number will win? Jonas caller four.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
We've made it even easier to take LA Sports with
you this summer. Make AM five to seventy or your
favorite AM five seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on
the iHeartRadio app using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto road
Trip all summer with LA Sports.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
All right, as we uh move to conclude, congratulations to
Andrew and Beaumont. You think that's Beaumont, Texas?
Speaker 2 (33:49):
I mean Kershaw's from Texas, right, He's from Highland Park.
Yeah maybe all right, well, or it's probably Beaumont from
out here. But Andrew, congratulations, you've done it. You're going
to the game to have the best time, and make
sure you take pictures.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
That's awesome, records videos, take some pictures, be a part
of history. So when he gets to you know, about
to get number three thousand, do what everybody in the
stadium will do. Stand point your phone at the direction
of the mound and start recording. Now, despite the fact
he'll look like an ant probably from where you're sitting,
(34:25):
you'll still record that. And then why would you show
that to somebody? I always find that interesting. You can
see everybody with their phone up Otani's pitching. You're in
the left field pavilion. It's going to be a little tough,
but yet people record everything. So you'll have that chance tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
I mean, you know, you could zoom in after the
fact and make it seem like you're a little bit closer.
You know, some people like to do that. You'll sit
in the quote unquote nosebleeds and then potentially just zoom
in and make it seem like you're close.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Yeah, but if you zoom in from there, how much
can you really zoom?
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Because it depends on the phone, it depends on what
kind of technology we're working with here. I mean, just
to be in the stadium for that moment is gonna
be awesome.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
That'd be cool.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Yeah, he's gonna have a damn good time. Now. Again,
just hope that he doesn't record his three thousand strikeout
on a check swing. That's anti climac Like if they've
got to point down to first to see whether or
not the guy went around, then it just gets like,
oh okay, Like it's not as cool as opposed to
just a knee buckling twelve to six curveball that just
(35:38):
sits in the zone and freezes a guy. That's the
perfect strikeout for Clayton Kershaw. That would be symbolic of
his career with the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
So let's say the guy checks on three thousand, On
three thousand and one, he throws that pitch. I mean,
once it gets to three thousand, now it's onward and upward.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yeah, but I would also like it just I want
the moment to be perfect. I don't want there to
be like, oh, you know, it's like like you know,
I guess it was a strike or a disputed strike,
you know, something like that, to where somebody from the
White Sox is bitching about the call, like you just
you want it to be perfect so people can appreciate
the moment, and Andrew and Beaumont is gonna be there
(36:22):
to see it all. Or how about this?
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Yeah, so strike three, but the ball gets away from
the catcher. Yea, and the runner is safe on first
That still counts in the stat sheet as a strikeout. Yes,
that's probably above anything else that you don't want.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
That would be pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
On a damn pass ball, that's what's the difference.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
He's still struck out.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
Strikes out, ball gets away from Will Smith or rushing.
They have to run back to the backstop and pick
it up. But the runner's safe at the at first base.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Wait a minute, they run back. It's rushing. He runs back,
He picks it up. He thinks he can get the guy.
He throws it into the right field corner. Oh no,
the runner moves to second. Hernandez goes over, picks up
the ball. The runners coming to third, Tao fires it
bounces past Monthsye runner scores. He gets his three thousand
strikeout on a home run. What do you think of that?
Speaker 2 (37:16):
Would that be considered a home runner? There's a lot
of errors involved there.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Well, it would be considered on a run score.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Yeah, I think Peter will be playing yackety sacks on
the organ. If that's happening, you know why the guys
are on the fields, KOs celebrating three thousand.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
They played yackety sack or the Benny Hill theme, right.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
Yeah, Well it all happened tomorrow one way or the other.
And Andrew, you're going all right, Ronnie, thank you, great work.
Terrific work today, Kevin, good job, Jonas. This is so
much fun. But again, you're not coming back tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
I will not be here tomorrow. No, I will not
be here tomorrow, but we'll be back next week.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Where are you going tomorrow?
Speaker 2 (37:53):
None of your business? Right, Maybe I'm waiting in Dodger Stadium,
waiting in the parking lot to try and to try
and get in for the tickets to drop, you know.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Okay, start looking five minutes before the game.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
All right, I'm gonna park in Lot F next to
the light pole.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
That's the key to success. Yes, I'd leave now and
go okay, all right, see them out
