Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, here we go, Fred Rogan Rodney Pete on
a five seventy LA Sports A big Tuesday program for
you and Rodney off the top. Don't we have to
give a shout out to everybody that showed up at
BJ's Restaurant in brue Housing, Downey yesterday. Don't we have
to show them a little love? Of course we do, Fred,
They were it was we were pleasantly well, I didn't
(00:21):
see I want to say pleasantly surprised because they bring
it all the time every time we go to a BJ's,
whether it.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Be Irvine or Burbank or even once Covina, West Covina
Woodland Hills, they always show up and Downy yesterday was lively, lively,
the people were ready. Fred. You know what, I can't
remember the guy that played the game. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(00:50):
I forget his name. And his wife won the other
prize and his wife won another prize.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Yeah, it was great, really had a good time. Thanks
to the folks with BJ for making us feel so welcome,
and uh, thanks to you for coming out and being
a part of it. Really appreciate you coming down and
making the trip to Downing.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, so mixed bag last night,
wouldn't you say? M Yeah, yeah, But that's what we're
gonna see, right, that's what we're gonna see in the
uh in the playoffs, man, that's that's Uh. It was
a good test, it was a good scene. It was
an exciting game. Uh didn't go to Dodgers' way. You know.
It just feels like you know those extra inning games, man,
(01:28):
you uh, it's it's a little bit of a crap shoot.
And when they only scored one and in the extra frame,
I was like, oh, we got them. I just got
them now, because at least we're gonna get one. We're
at least gonna tie this bad boy up. And usually
that is the case, but last night it didn't work out.
But yeah, heart fault game. You saw what you're gonna see.
(01:51):
The stars came out to play, and you know, we'll
see how the next two games go. But I think
it it. I think you saw two very evenly matched teams. Yep.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
So first off, I think if it finishes the way
it is and the Dodgers wi win the first round
of the wild Card right now against the Mets, they'd
see the Phillies again. Now I said from the beginning
of the year, you better keep an eye on the Phillies.
I'll say it here and I'll say it right now.
Dodgers will beat them.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
In the stretch. Fred, Wow, you said keep an eye
on the Phillies. I did. Oh my god? Really? Oh yeah,
no way, no way, Like, how did you How did
you know the Phillies were going to be in it?
I just knew that. I knew. I called that. I
called it. You know what else?
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I said, what Brewers would have the best record in
the National League.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
You did not say that, though, I did not say that. Yeah,
oh yeah, let me tell you something, fans, let me
tell you something. The Dodgers will be in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Hear that first? You heard it here first. No, we
knew the Phillies would be good. And I don't think
they're gonna catch the Phillies now. So in the wild
five and a half games, if they won last night,
they got it. They had a real shot. Because the shot,
you know, you got a shout to sweep them, and
then you got the Giants, but and and and the
Phillies got a little bit of a road.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
But yeah, you had a shot. But last night losing
that one. It was tough. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
So I do think in the playoffs, if it goes
the way it's supposed to, I think the Dodgers will
beat the Phillies.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I do. I'll say it right here. I liked last night.
You gotta say, Fred, be honest. You know, I'm just
saying I don't think it's hard the Dodgers. No, Listen,
if they meet together in the playoffs, Philly is going
to blow the Dodgers out. No. No, I don't even
think it'll be that difficult.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Do you realize that Dodgers have a losing record against
Philadelphia over the last like four years.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Can everybody just settle down, please, I'm telling you, if
they meet in the playoffs, it's not going to be
that hard.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
They will beat the Phillies. Yea, not gonna be hard.
My point. My point is what else you gonna say, Fred? Oh? Right,
they played, they played the Phillies. The Dodgers gonna lose
in the Phillies. Let me just tell you that right now. No,
I could say, to be really tight, I don't know
what will happen. We don't know. I think they'll beat them,
and I don't think they'll have a lot of trouble
with them in the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
You know, they have to get to the Phillies too,
because the Phillies is gonna be sitting at home while
the Dodgors are playing in a three game wildcard series.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, okay, that's not that easy. That's easy.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
You can win three straight games, right, or two games
out of two out of three, right, that's easy.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Why why do you have to be such a buzzkill?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
I'm just being realistic for it. You sound like a
myopic fan right now.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I have I missed that many this year? Have I
been wrong that much in the Dodgers season this year? Yeah,
you've been wrong.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Well, listen, just look at how the Dodgers have looked
all season long, and just based on what you're saying,
you think they're the one running away with the second
seed or the first seed in the National League.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
You'll see tonight. You'll see what happens tonight. All right,
So what happened last night was this Emma Sheen was terrific.
He just God, he's good. And here's and now we
know what he's gonna do. I mean, Dave Roberts and
Andrew Freeman aren't coming on the show today, But we
do know what they're gonna have him do what he
did last night, that's what he's going to do. And
we kind of guess that he's gonna be the coming
(05:12):
in the second or third ending guy if need be,
and carry us as far as you can take us.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
You're gonna give you some lanth.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, and quality length, Rodney quality length, and I think
everybody wants a little quality length, so certainly he'll provide that. Yes,
what happened last night, and I was heartbroken. I think
Jack Dryer gave up the home run because he's tired,
because he pitches every game.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
You jinxed him as what you did. Oh, I felt
badly for him. Yeah, and I was listening on to
the radio. He felt badly that you mentioned his name yesterday.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Steven Nelson says, you know, Dave Roberts has a trust
tree and Jack Dryer is right at the top of
the trust tree. Bammed there it goes. It's like, uh, oh, No,
I felt badly for him because he's had a hell
of a year and that was a misstep. That was
an anomaly, a one off, and then Investia comes in
(06:11):
and he gave up one two Okay, I don't see
that happening a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I know, Bill Plashki wrote it's the bullpen. They need help.
They should have made moves. I think they're fine. You know,
I'd better know two guys anytime. Yeah, I mean, we
love Bill, you know, but sometimes, you know, Bill will
often sometimes go as the wind blows. And I think
that you you know, when you build a team at
(06:38):
the beginning of the season a certain way because you
look up and you go, we can't you know, there's
no we were I do want to say lucky, because
they were very good last year, but to do what
they did and in terms of the way they pitched
the last half of the season and throughout the playoffs
and to win the World Series, there's nothing that was
not sustainable. So they had to address and they did
(07:00):
address it, and then they addressed it to to the
point of they got two guys that were highly sought
after in the off season and the Dodgers got them both,
and going into the season, I uh, you know, I
you would have to search anybody to say, oh, that
(07:21):
wasn't good move by the Dodgers. Unbelievable move by the Dodgers.
But yet now people want to say, oh, oh, that
was not you know, they didn't address the bullpen. They
didn't address this, They didn't address what they should have addressed. Well,
yeah they did. And sometimes the season goes up and down.
You got to you gotta trust the guys that have
done it and have a track record of doing it
(07:42):
that they will come around even if they get into slumps. So,
you know, I don't buy this, oh they didn't address
any I think they addressed everything they needed to address
to go win, you know, back to back World series.
It's just people are still human. You still got to
play the game. So we'll you know, we will see.
But I still believe the Dodgers are in good shape
(08:04):
going into into the postseason. I agree.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Uh, Mookie homerd late in the game. Mookie was the
player of the week last week. Remember when Mooki couldn't hit.
Remember when Mooki said it was in God's hands. Yeah,
well the Lord take care of him. Well, remember the
reason was Mookie needs to moving back to right field.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
That was the issue. That was the issue. He can't
hit because he's playing shortstop. Yeah. What happened to those people? Yeah,
what happened to those people that was just tough.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I mean, it was a tough game last night, fun game,
fun game, and you wish the Dodgers' bullpen would have
held on to the lead.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
They didn't. That's okay, it really is. I don't mean
to make light of it. Well, Philip came to Philly
say the same thing, which they would have failed on
to the lead, or we wouldn't have given up a
tie in the bottom of the ninth. I mean, you know,
you could say everything on both sides of it. It
just turned out to be. It was. Listen, it was
an extra inning win. It wasn't like it. You know,
(09:06):
it was blown in the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and
ninth inning. It went into extra innings, and with two
good teams, two teams that could very well be in
the World Series playing against each other late or in
mid September. So you know, don't let's not read way
too much into it.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
No disappointing for sean tough loss for the Dodgers. Philly celebrated,
They clenched the East. They celebrated on the on the
field of Dodgers Stadium, which of course nobody here cared
about because half the people didn't even know why they
were celebrating, But good for them. They've clinched the East
and that's great.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, you know, as a as a football guy, you know,
you know, we always looked at it and go, why
are they Why are they popping champagne and celebrating so
much when they haven't really won anything yet? You know,
you don't see you know, see you know football teams
celebrating in the locker room after the first a wildcard
playoff win. It is a win until you get to
(10:07):
the super Bowl. That's when you celebrate. But I guess
Baseball's that got that tradition in it. I just I
never got it, never understood it.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Fred, Well, they play one hundred and sixty two games,
they played for six months and and don't don't you
think they deserve a moment of celebration when they've accomplished
something like that?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
What does that mean? We we celebrate in division banners?
We just are we celebrating position postseason appearances. That's what
we're doing. You know, I never got it. I just didn't.
And I you know, I understand that that's the tradition,
but I just never I just I don't if I
(10:50):
if as a player I just I don't know if
I could really get into that knowing that you got
a lot of work to do and the ultimate goals
win it, win it all. And I don't try to
be off my lawn guy, but I just, you know,
even the years, I'm not just saying it because you
know they did it last night on Dodgers on the
Dodgers field. But I just from any team, I never
(11:11):
really got the full on celebration in the clubhouse after
a playoff win or playoff series win. People just don't
celebrate enough. That's got to be it is that it
every day we do something well, we should celebrate that.
Every little milestone. It's okay, it's okay to be excited.
You didn't say that about Little Owen. Well, little Owen
(11:34):
wanted to celebrate before we started. That was the problem.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
You can't all right, one thing, we're gonna we're gonna institute.
You cannot celebrate before your first practice. We have to
draw the line somewhere.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
I do that.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
No.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
I think Owen just wanted to have fun playing the sport,
and Fritz said, no, we got to put our foot
in all these kids, these other eight year old's throats
and win.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I think that was the point of consensure between you
and Owen. Fred Owen just wants to go out there
and have a good time.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Okay, And at the end of the day. At the
end of the day, how to own feel like a winner?
Kevin like a winner?
Speaker 2 (12:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Maybe right now he's running Microsoft Little Owen, maybe he
feels like a winner. It's okay to celebrate accomplishments and achievements.
I don't know what little Owen is doing.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
The achievement was today we're starting this game. That's an
achievement as it. That's an achievement right now for all
of us that we get to play this game. He
put it in perspective Fred and you and you tore
him down. I don't think I tore him down. You
know what, Sometimes tough love is good love, Rodney. It
(12:43):
helps us. For an eight year old kid, yeah, I
get it. And what better time to learn than when
you're eight. It's funny about parents. I don't want to
go off on a tangent, but I'll just tell you
a story.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
So parents today are different than they were when my
kids were a little, When Rodney the kids were little,
and if you're listening of a certain generation when your
kids were little, Right, Things change and people look at
things differently. So there's a story. There's a pre school.
The preschool changes the director of the preschool. Okay, now
it's been a community preschool. People love the preschool and
(13:17):
it's like a little family. It's like a little church preschool.
Everybody loves the preschool. So they make a change with
the pastor. The pastor says, we're going to change the school.
They bring in a new director. The parents freak.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Out, all of them, all of them.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
And I talked to a few of them. You know
what they tell me. I don't know what I'm going
to tell my daughter. I said, what are you going
to tell your daughter? She's three years old? What are
you going to tell your daughter? Well, this is something
she may.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Never recover from. She's two, she's two years old. What
do you mean she'll never recover from Miss Julie not
being there anymore? Well, there mean to us? Who's mean?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Well the schools mean to who to us rints or
the kids? Well, and I'm not gonna let anybody. I'm
not gonna let anybody do this kind of thing to
my daughter.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
What are they doing? What are they doing?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
They change the way they operated the school. You have
an option stay or go? Why just take a troll.
I'm gonna sue them. You're gonna sue them. You're gonna
sue the school. What if they do to your three
year old daughter, I'm not sure she'll ever be the same.
That's today's parents right there. Today's parents sue the school.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Not teach your kid a lesson about life, but we're
gonna sue the school. Do you want to hear one
more real? Fast? This is another one.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Listen to this. Kids go on a bus. Bus goes
to Lego Land. It's a school field trip. Now there's
a roll on the bus by the way that if
the bus is moving, you can't stand up. Do not
stand up on the bus. The bus stops, you'll go
rolling down the aisle. Don't get up. Do not get
up on the bus. What if they have to go
to the bathroom? What the bus driver, No, he'll pull over.
(15:01):
There's a bathroom on the bus, all right. So anyway,
the bus driver's driving back from Lego Land, and the
kids are running up and down the aisle and screaming
and standing on the seats well, the guy pulls the
bus over and says, you guys got to knock it off.
You got to sit down. They're chaperones parents on the bus.
You gotta sit down, you gotta sit down. They don't listen.
(15:21):
So he finally pulls off just before he's supposed to
be where he's at. He gets out.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
One of the parents calls the sheriff and said, the
bus driver is holding our kids hots inside of the
bus hostage. We'll let them get off the bus. Sheriff comes.
Parents all drive up from where the pickup point was
to where the bus is. A mother records this, so
the mother's got the aftermath outside, the kids running off
the bus crying. She shows the bus driver talking to
(15:48):
the sheriff. One mother says, my eight year old will
never be the same, The traumatized will never go on
a bus again. This was so traumatizing for my eight
year old. They will never go on the bus again. Ever,
it's not going to happen. Wow.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
So everybody looks at the video and immediately thinks, oh
my god, what did this bus driver do?
Speaker 2 (16:05):
What did he say? How could this be?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
I mean, this guy's obviously a criminal, and he's intimidated
these kids and they're crying and screaming and they can't
go to the bathroom. So that video now makes the
rounds on social media, on TV, and everybody's upset with
the bus driver and the bus company. Except we got
the video from inside the bus, not the initial Oh
(16:31):
my god, my eight year old is traumatized and we'll
never go on the bus again. No, we got the
video from inside the bus. So we ran the woman
screaming my eight year old and over go on the
bus and the kids are terrorized and they can't go
to the bathroom. But you see the video from inside
the bus showed the kids running up and down the aisle,
jumping on the seats, screaming, and the chaperone sitting there.
(16:55):
Chaperone's doing nothing. You saw the bus driver told him
to stop. They did, and he finally pulled over. The
parents to this day believe their children have been harmed
for life, scarred for.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Life, scarred, they can never go on a bus again. Really,
you were around the bush, you saw what happened. You
did nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's kind of the way it is today, where everybody's
got it shot, everybody's a winner, everybody's good.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
And if you're not, we're going to overreact. Oh huge,
that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
That's the problem with the way things are, the way
kids are and the way parents are raising them, and
it's just generational.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
You know.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
When I was young, what I wanted to do is
avoid the fly swatter the frying pan.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Mm hm, because at any moment they could have been
coming after me the frying pan. Oh yeah, damn, that's right.
I didn't even want Kevin born in Detroit. Come on,
come on, stick out your tongue. Why flyswater from flyswater
to frying pan? I ever heard? You know, the belt
the switch from the tree.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Yeah, the old paddle with the with the holes in it,
you know, for the wind resistance.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
You lit from fly'swater to frying pan. Jeez, Irene Rogan
wasn't fooling around. I'll tell you that. Go ahead, Irene.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I also got this. I don't know if you got it, Rodney.
I'm Kevin. I'm sure your mother didn't do it to you. Hey, Fred,
come here a minute.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
What you say? Oh is that what you said? Do
me a favorite?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Stick out of your tongue, the old bar of soap
right on your tongue.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Nah, didn't do that one.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
She threatened me with it, but she never did it.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Oh, I got it.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Give me that potty mouth one more time. I'm gonna
watch him out that with soap. She said it a
hundred times, but she never actually did it.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I got it, I got the soap. But different then
that's all you did that today. If you do that today,
you'll be arrested. Yeah, child service is knocking at your door.
You can't do that. You can't do that kind of thing.
I don't know how we got off on that. Let's
just touch this real quick. Rotteney, oh Tony pitching in
the playoffs? All right, so everybody speculating about what it
(19:12):
will be. Mark Pryor was on with Dan Patrick a
couple of weeks ago. They said, yeah, we're trying to
figure out what we're going to do. And it seems
right now to your point, he would be a starter.
But what if you don't need him to be a starter.
Would you bring him in relief? If you bring him
(19:32):
in relief, you've lost his bat. And I think that's
now something the Dodgers are really starting to look at,
meaning they could use him in relief. It's just when
so if he's going to pitch anyway, If they said
he's going to pitch, don't you have to start him
(19:53):
now and not gamble on losing his bat?
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Well if okay, so so the scenario you're saying, the
scenario doesn't dictate that if you're up to in the
ninth and you got to have it, and you're and
he is not coming up until seventh in the lineup,
he'd just hit the inning before. You're saying, you wouldn't
(20:18):
risk bringing him in in the ninth, you know, because
you're you're afraid that if it goes the extra innings,
you don't have his bat. No, I think in the
ninth that's one thing. Yeah, that's the only time I
would bring him in to close it out. I wouldn't
bring him in in a high leverage seventh inning situation.
If he's relieving, you're bringing him in to close the
(20:41):
whole game out. And if you if you don't, then
you live with that that he didn't close it out.
But one run game, you know, got to have it
or whatever. It's a it's a World Series game, and
it's not like he would be You wouldn't do it.
If he's coming up next but if he's sixth, seventh,
(21:03):
you know, in the lineup, and you're entering into the
ninth inning, why not why not bring him out there
and close it out If you're up by one or two,
if it's tie game, no, But if you're up one
or two, yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
That's the dilemma they're kicking around. I guess you're right,
you can't bring him in the seventh.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Well, I'll say this. Andrew Freeman sold this to Jack Harris.
He says they expect him to be a starter in
the postseason. So all of our discussions about who's going
to be in the rotation and all that, Freeman basically
seems to confirm that shoe Oltani is going to be
a starter when the playoffs begin.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
In the rotation. Yeah, it's hard to imagine him not
being in there. I mean, this is now now, you're
not worried about we got forty games left. We got
to protect this, protect that. No, it's every game becomes
a must win. So yeah, why wouldn't you start him
and and allow him to go as deep as he
can go. He've already you've already tested him out. He's
(22:05):
already gone fifty sixty pitches. You know, thus far, five
six innings, let him go. Now it's time to turn
him loose.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
What how would you assess where he's at right now
pitching wise, Kevin, Rodney, Ronnie, you can weigh in two
right now. Would you trust him with the ball? Do
you think he would go out there and get the
win that on a given night.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I'll answer your question by what Andrew Freeman told Jack.
He says, we think Otani's one of the best pitchers
in Major League Baseball. His is the one that matters
above anybody else's. So if he believes that that he's
one of the best starting pitchers in all of baseball,
then it will be painstakingly obvious he's going to be
a starter in the postseason, maybe even for Game one
of a playoff series.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
And I don't think they worry about you know, we
got to get him out in the fifth, or we
got to get you know, his pitch count is at
seventy five, so we're worried about that. I think in
the postseason, that's what they've been gearing up to. And
if it's you know, the eighth and the and the
game is tight and he's throwing a one hitter and
shutting him down.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
He goes, yeah, I agree with you. There's not gonna
be a lot of pitch count when you hit the postseason.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
You gotta go.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I'm surprised Andrew Friedman actually said he's one of the
best pitchers in baseball.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
You don't think well, you know what he said, best
starters in the National League. So I guess I'm I
don't want to make sure I don't misquote him. He said,
I don't think he is one of the best starters
in the National League?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Is what he said? You don't think he is.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Well, let's see, I think Snell's better. I think glassnew
is better.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Game seven, You're you're starting glass now overs over Otani. No,
I'm starting Snell over Otani. No, you said glass now
is better. No, I guess I would start Okay, Yeah,
I guess i'd start Otoni. You're right, I guess.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
So.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Well, we're gonna find out. We we will find out
soon enough. And by the way, we're going to find
out a lot of things right the next month. It
is gonna be interesting how this whole, this whole National
League plays out. It's going to be one of the
more exciting playoffs that we've had in recent years.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
The one thing I did not mention at the top, apologies,
today's the first day of Ed Eric Dickerson joining the show.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Oh no, it's not. You was here last week, the
first day that I'm here that he's joining the show. Yes,
but before we go, you know, no, no disrespect to Ed.
We have to we have to pay tribute to the
man Robert Redford who passed away. Oh yeah, yeah, I mean,
you know, the iconic actor, producer, activists, humanitarian Robert Redford
(24:50):
did so much in his life obviously a lot of
most folks knowing from on screen, but did so much
off screen and just a all around good guy, good
human being. Robert Redford passed away eighty nine years old. Yep, yep, okay.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Eric Dickerson joins us at the top of the hour
when we come back.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
See you know how USC looks like it belongs to
the Big ten?
Speaker 4 (25:23):

Speaker 5 (25:46):
Oh yeah, let's keep it moving on at Tuesday, y'all,
come on. Lot's to get too.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Don't forget the Ambassador Eric Dickerson will be joining us
at one o'clock. But right now, let's keep it moving, Freddy, All.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Right, Rodney, A look around the wild Wild NL West
was brought to you by wild Fork from Valencia to
Wincinitas and in between. Fid your wild Fork at Wildforkfoods
dot com. All right, So USC's got Michigan State coming up.
Yesterday you were kind enough to give a pair of
your tickets away. Yes, it was very generous as we
had you know, the crowd. It moved me, fred The
(26:21):
crowd down there was very energetic and moving.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
It was pro USC, which I like in this town
is most of most of La is pro USC. But
it was a good crowd, so I you know, yeah,
I felt compelled to give away two of my seats
at for this weekend's game against Michigan State, which you
know a lot of people saying, well, this is another
(26:46):
game that USC should win. Blah blah blah blah blah.
They're not gonna get tested until they go and play Illinois,
which you know, Illinois I think is ranked ninth. They
are a good football team, and playing them in Champagne,
they will absolutely be ready for USC when they come
to town is a big test. But SC's got to
continue to get better. I think every game. You know,
(27:07):
they're three and zero now every game, I think they've improved.
Still are very young in some areas, but I think
the question marks going into the season, obviously, for the
last couple of years with Lincoln Riley has been the
defense and how is the defense going to how are
they going to play? USC has always been able to
score points, but they've rarely showed that they can stop anybody.
(27:31):
And and I think that has been I think the
highlight of the season so far. You know, regardless of
who they play, the highlight is they've got some really
good players on defense, and you know the fact that
they've they've been able to kind of work their way
through this season I think is very favorable. You know,
(27:52):
we see some college teams and some programs that you
know come out of the gate and play those you know,
play extremely difficult opponents, and sometimes you can recover from
those and sometimes you can't. I mean, look at Texas
right now. You know Texas right now after playing Ohio State,
everybody's like, first of all, they're off the Archs Manning train,
(28:13):
and people are wondering if Texas is as good as
everybody thought they were to begin the season. And sometimes you,
like I said, you can recover and sometimes you can't.
But I think for USC, I think it's the perfect
for them this year. And you know, with Jayden starting
the second second year, you know, he got a lot
(28:34):
of experience last year playing after he took over from
Miller Moss, and he's he's started the season extremely well
and now he can continue that. So the fact that
they got Michigan State at home is going to be
a good thing for them. So I'm excited to see
them go four and oh to start the season. Freddie,
here's the.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Thing I look at, and it might sound very insignificant,
but when I watch them against Purdue, to me physically,
they looked like a team that could be in the
Big Ten. They looked like a Big Ten team to me.
And I guess it's a really small thing, but that
(29:13):
eye test met an awful lot. They look bigger, they
look stronger, They look like they should be in that
conference now, not the Pac twelve. The Pac twelve teams
weren't built that way. Unless we're looking at Oregon, usc
looked like a Big ten team.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Is that just too simple? Yeah it is. It depends
on the year. So you're saying that Pete Carroll teams
were not busy.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
No no, no, no, no, I'm talking about now since
they moved to the Big Ten, not Pete Carroll teams,
because they were in a different division altogether, they look
like that team.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
People could say, oh, well, they're not physical. They yet
they beat up on Michigan, They beat up on all
the Big ten teams, Ohio States, you know all those teams.
It goes in cycles. It goes in cycles, right, and
so you know, beat up on Penn State in the
Rose Bowl with Sam Darry. You know, the whole notion
though they can't play physical football is ridiculous. And I
(30:12):
know that out West, everybody believes that that's all they
do is throw the football. They can't be physical. But
Oregon has turned into a very physical team. Washington, who
made it to the championship game two years ago was
a very physical team, or otherwise they wouldn't have gotten there.
But I get the reputation part of it, but I
(30:32):
think it's just it's just an overused analogy that West
Coast teams can't be physical.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Well, let's put it like this. This year they looked
more like an SEC team. They look big. I don't
think they looked this big last year just from the
eye test.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
What does that mean just because they're big. They could
be big and slow. They can be big and weak.
Big doesn't automatically mean stronger, bigger, fat or whatever or dominant.
It just means big. So you can be big, but
it doesn't mean anything unless you can you can play.
(31:11):
You know, over the years, it's just some teams are
you know, you got to be big, but you also
got to be an athletic. You see big Boy rumble
and stumble for a seventy yard interception. Not only was
he big, but he was athletic. And that's what when
s he has been good, it'd been both. And so
you know, we'll see. Obviously the test is and that's
(31:33):
the perception is you got to be physical to be
in the big ten. But that was also the you know,
the perception is that the Big Ten was big and slow.
That's why they couldn't keep up with teams in the
SEC or even teams out West when they faced a
good team out West that that they faced in the
(31:54):
playoffs or International title game, they couldn't match up because
they were too big and slow. And that was the
knock on the Big Ten. Now you're saying that it's
you just got to be big and you can't be
physical unless you're Ohio State Michigan.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
And if you're not, then you can't win it. So
when you look at UCLA, what do you see? When
you look at UCLA, what do you see?
Speaker 2 (32:20):
I see? I see a lack of overall talent on
both sides of the ball. I think they've got talent,
but just not enough of it, and that that is
a problem. You know, they get overmatched in situations like
(32:43):
would you say, perfect example Utah. People don't you know,
people don't pay a whole lot of attention to Utah
over the years, but they have built a unbelievable program
in Utah, and year in and year out, they're winning
nine ten games and they're in the conversation most of
the time, they played in multiple Rose bowls now and
(33:05):
Utah is a very good, like I said, a very
good program. Utah is as physical and has been over
the last ten years, has been as physical as anybody.
And they manhandled u c l A manhandled UCLA. And
you know, you got to be either or you know,
(33:25):
if you're not going to be physical and big and physical,
then you you got to you gotta have the speed
and you gotta have the athleticism to get you over
the top to come back that and UCLA unfortunately doesn't
have you know, they don't have either of that. And
as they now enter into the conference playing the Big Ten,
(33:47):
it's it's going to be extremely difficult, because I will
give you that to the point where they they are
going to look overmatched because that's the way the Big
Ten is built is big, physical guys and the combat
that you got to have speed. And although UCLA does
have a few guys that can run and can play
(34:08):
on the outside, but is Nico going to be able
to get the ball off to him? And when they
play Iowa, or they play Michigan or they play Penn State,
you just worry that they are just again physically not
going to be a hold up and then also speed
wise not going to be able to hold up.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
All right, let's have a quick injury update here before
we bring Eric Dickerson on right after the top of
the hour break. Sean McVay did suffer an injury during
the Rams victory over Tennessee. He was not on special teams.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
No, he didn't run down on kickoff.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
No, he did not run down on kickoffs. But he
did tear his planter fascia during the victory. Rodney, can
you speak about that injury?
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Please? Do you know what your planet fasci is? Fred
foot injury? Yeah, we're in the foot bottom of your foot. Yeah,
technically it's your art. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know how
he did it. I don't know if he got trampled
or he stepped wrong. Usually it's not it's a non
(37:05):
contact contact type of injury, much like an Achilles tendon,
where it just snaps because you either snap step wrong,
or you had some weakness somewhere. It was just an
awkward fall or stress on the tendon. Kind of same
thing with that. It's just you know, as you're moving
around and you step awkwardly or or there there was
(37:29):
stress in your arts. Then then it happened. So I
don't know what the you know, what he's got to
go through to get that better. I don't know the
degree of the injury. But it's not fun. It's not pleasant.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
Well, it's not often you hear after the game the
coach had an MRI. Tinly unusual. Well, the coach has
an MRI.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Yeah, but he was limping around at the end of
the game, and some people thought he was being dramatic,
and he really was, and it just hurt, you know,
his his game day is different than Andy Reid. You know,
Andy Reid kind of waddles up and down the sideline
where as Sean McVay. You know, if the guy is
running for a long game, he's gonna run, you know,
down the sideline with him and try to try to
beat him to the end zone. So he's very active
(38:09):
on game day. So I'm not surprised that he hasn't
had more injuries. Actually, so, are you suggesting Andy Reid
would not suffer an injury like this? Probably not? Probably not.
If Andy Reid were to suffer an injury, what kind
of injury do you think he'd suffer? M Well, let's see,
he he loves a good burger. Sure, yeah, he loves
(38:31):
a good burger. Maybe some intergestion could be right, Yeah,
maybe that, but that's, you know, curable way, just having
some thumbs on the sideline, right, He wouldn't need an MRI. No,
I don't think so. I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah, all right, So the good news Sean McVay will
not be in the injury list for the Rams next game.
The Rams next games against pretty good oponent too.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Yeah, you got to go to Philly. Yeah, rematch of
the playoff game last year where they had Philly on
the ropes. People, forget that, man, they had them on
the ropes. Big, you know, first and ten on the
twenty I believe going in to go win that game
with let's I think around two minutes to go, and
we weren't able to punch it in, but played them
tough in the snow. And that was after Saquon Barkley
(39:20):
ran for about eight hundred yards against them as well,
so they were still in that game. Yeah, it'll be interesting.
I know people want to make more of it. It's
better to, I guess, get these games out of the
way early because people, you know, much like when Philly
played Kansas City, everybody wants to build it up and
make more into it than what it is, Like Baltimore
and Buffalo played early. Oh my god, this is this.
(39:42):
No team's going to be completely different when December rolls
around as opposed to what they are now. But it's fun.
It's a fun matchup and it's a good matchup, and
I think people get excited about that. So good scheduling
by the NFL.

All right, here we go, Fred Rogan Rodney Pete on
a five seventy LA Sports A big Tuesday program for
you and Rodney off the top. Don't we have to
give a shout out to everybody that showed up at
BJ's Restaurant in brue Housing, Downey yesterday. Don't we have
to show them a little love? Of course we do, Fred,
They were it was we were pleasantly well, I didn't
(00:21):
see I want to say pleasantly surprised because they bring
it all the time every time we go to a BJ's,
whether it.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Be Irvine or Burbank or even once Covina, West Covina
Woodland Hills, they always show up and Downy yesterday was lively, lively,
the people were ready. Fred. You know what, I can't
remember the guy that played the game. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(00:50):
I forget his name. And his wife won the other
prize and his wife won another prize.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Yeah, it was great, really had a good time. Thanks
to the folks with BJ for making us feel so welcome,
and uh, thanks to you for coming out and being
a part of it. Really appreciate you coming down and
making the trip to Downing.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, so mixed bag last night,
wouldn't you say? M Yeah, yeah, But that's what we're
gonna see, right, that's what we're gonna see in the
uh in the playoffs, man, that's that's Uh. It was
a good test, it was a good scene. It was
an exciting game. Uh didn't go to Dodgers' way. You know.
It just feels like you know those extra inning games, man,
(01:28):
you uh, it's it's a little bit of a crap shoot.
And when they only scored one and in the extra frame,
I was like, oh, we got them. I just got
them now, because at least we're gonna get one. We're
at least gonna tie this bad boy up. And usually
that is the case, but last night it didn't work out.
But yeah, heart fault game. You saw what you're gonna see.
(01:51):
The stars came out to play, and you know, we'll
see how the next two games go. But I think
it it. I think you saw two very evenly matched teams. Yep.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
So first off, I think if it finishes the way
it is and the Dodgers wi win the first round
of the wild Card right now against the Mets, they'd
see the Phillies again. Now I said from the beginning
of the year, you better keep an eye on the Phillies.
I'll say it here and I'll say it right now.
Dodgers will beat them.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
In the stretch. Fred, Wow, you said keep an eye
on the Phillies. I did. Oh my god? Really? Oh yeah,
no way, no way, Like, how did you How did
you know the Phillies were going to be in it?
I just knew that. I knew. I called that. I
called it. You know what else?
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I said, what Brewers would have the best record in
the National League.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
You did not say that, though, I did not say that. Yeah,
oh yeah, let me tell you something, fans, let me
tell you something. The Dodgers will be in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Hear that first? You heard it here first. No, we
knew the Phillies would be good. And I don't think
they're gonna catch the Phillies now. So in the wild
five and a half games, if they won last night,
they got it. They had a real shot. Because the shot,
you know, you got a shout to sweep them, and
then you got the Giants, but and and and the
Phillies got a little bit of a road.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
But yeah, you had a shot. But last night losing
that one. It was tough. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
So I do think in the playoffs, if it goes
the way it's supposed to, I think the Dodgers will
beat the Phillies.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I do. I'll say it right here. I liked last night.
You gotta say, Fred, be honest. You know, I'm just
saying I don't think it's hard the Dodgers. No, Listen,
if they meet together in the playoffs, Philly is going
to blow the Dodgers out. No. No, I don't even
think it'll be that difficult.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Do you realize that Dodgers have a losing record against
Philadelphia over the last like four years.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Can everybody just settle down, please, I'm telling you, if
they meet in the playoffs, it's not going to be
that hard.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
They will beat the Phillies. Yea, not gonna be hard.
My point. My point is what else you gonna say, Fred? Oh? Right,
they played, they played the Phillies. The Dodgers gonna lose
in the Phillies. Let me just tell you that right now. No,
I could say, to be really tight, I don't know
what will happen. We don't know. I think they'll beat them,
and I don't think they'll have a lot of trouble
with them in the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
You know, they have to get to the Phillies too,
because the Phillies is gonna be sitting at home while
the Dodgors are playing in a three game wildcard series.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, okay, that's not that easy. That's easy.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
You can win three straight games, right, or two games
out of two out of three, right, that's easy.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Why why do you have to be such a buzzkill?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
I'm just being realistic for it. You sound like a
myopic fan right now.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I have I missed that many this year? Have I
been wrong that much in the Dodgers season this year? Yeah,
you've been wrong.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Well, listen, just look at how the Dodgers have looked
all season long, and just based on what you're saying,
you think they're the one running away with the second
seed or the first seed in the National League.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
You'll see tonight. You'll see what happens tonight. All right,
So what happened last night was this Emma Sheen was terrific.
He just God, he's good. And here's and now we
know what he's gonna do. I mean, Dave Roberts and
Andrew Freeman aren't coming on the show today, But we
do know what they're gonna have him do what he
did last night, that's what he's going to do. And
we kind of guess that he's gonna be the coming
(05:12):
in the second or third ending guy if need be,
and carry us as far as you can take us.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
You're gonna give you some lanth.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, and quality length, Rodney quality length, and I think
everybody wants a little quality length, so certainly he'll provide that. Yes,
what happened last night, and I was heartbroken. I think
Jack Dryer gave up the home run because he's tired,
because he pitches every game.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
You jinxed him as what you did. Oh, I felt
badly for him. Yeah, and I was listening on to
the radio. He felt badly that you mentioned his name yesterday.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Steven Nelson says, you know, Dave Roberts has a trust
tree and Jack Dryer is right at the top of
the trust tree. Bammed there it goes. It's like, uh, oh, No,
I felt badly for him because he's had a hell
of a year and that was a misstep. That was
an anomaly, a one off, and then Investia comes in
(06:11):
and he gave up one two Okay, I don't see
that happening a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I know, Bill Plashki wrote it's the bullpen. They need help.
They should have made moves. I think they're fine. You know,
I'd better know two guys anytime. Yeah, I mean, we
love Bill, you know, but sometimes, you know, Bill will
often sometimes go as the wind blows. And I think
that you you know, when you build a team at
(06:38):
the beginning of the season a certain way because you
look up and you go, we can't you know, there's
no we were I do want to say lucky, because
they were very good last year, but to do what
they did and in terms of the way they pitched
the last half of the season and throughout the playoffs
and to win the World Series, there's nothing that was
not sustainable. So they had to address and they did
(07:00):
address it, and then they addressed it to to the
point of they got two guys that were highly sought
after in the off season and the Dodgers got them both,
and going into the season, I uh, you know, I
you would have to search anybody to say, oh, that
(07:21):
wasn't good move by the Dodgers. Unbelievable move by the Dodgers.
But yet now people want to say, oh, oh, that
was not you know, they didn't address the bullpen. They
didn't address this, They didn't address what they should have addressed. Well,
yeah they did. And sometimes the season goes up and down.
You got to you gotta trust the guys that have
done it and have a track record of doing it
(07:42):
that they will come around even if they get into slumps. So,
you know, I don't buy this, oh they didn't address
any I think they addressed everything they needed to address
to go win, you know, back to back World series.
It's just people are still human. You still got to
play the game. So we'll you know, we will see.
But I still believe the Dodgers are in good shape
(08:04):
going into into the postseason. I agree.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Uh, Mookie homerd late in the game. Mookie was the
player of the week last week. Remember when Mooki couldn't hit.
Remember when Mooki said it was in God's hands. Yeah,
well the Lord take care of him. Well, remember the
reason was Mookie needs to moving back to right field.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
That was the issue. That was the issue. He can't
hit because he's playing shortstop. Yeah. What happened to those people? Yeah,
what happened to those people that was just tough.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I mean, it was a tough game last night, fun game,
fun game, and you wish the Dodgers' bullpen would have
held on to the lead.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
They didn't. That's okay, it really is. I don't mean
to make light of it. Well, Philip came to Philly
say the same thing, which they would have failed on
to the lead, or we wouldn't have given up a
tie in the bottom of the ninth. I mean, you know,
you could say everything on both sides of it. It
just turned out to be. It was. Listen, it was
an extra inning win. It wasn't like it. You know,
(09:06):
it was blown in the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and
ninth inning. It went into extra innings, and with two
good teams, two teams that could very well be in
the World Series playing against each other late or in
mid September. So you know, don't let's not read way
too much into it.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
No disappointing for sean tough loss for the Dodgers. Philly celebrated,
They clenched the East. They celebrated on the on the
field of Dodgers Stadium, which of course nobody here cared
about because half the people didn't even know why they
were celebrating, But good for them. They've clinched the East
and that's great.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, you know, as a as a football guy, you know,
you know, we always looked at it and go, why
are they Why are they popping champagne and celebrating so
much when they haven't really won anything yet? You know,
you don't see you know, see you know football teams
celebrating in the locker room after the first a wildcard
playoff win. It is a win until you get to
(10:07):
the super Bowl. That's when you celebrate. But I guess
Baseball's that got that tradition in it. I just I
never got it, never understood it.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Fred, Well, they play one hundred and sixty two games,
they played for six months and and don't don't you
think they deserve a moment of celebration when they've accomplished
something like that?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
What does that mean? We we celebrate in division banners?
We just are we celebrating position postseason appearances. That's what
we're doing. You know, I never got it. I just didn't.
And I you know, I understand that that's the tradition,
but I just never I just I don't if I
(10:50):
if as a player I just I don't know if
I could really get into that knowing that you got
a lot of work to do and the ultimate goals
win it, win it all. And I don't try to
be off my lawn guy, but I just, you know,
even the years, I'm not just saying it because you
know they did it last night on Dodgers on the
Dodgers field. But I just from any team, I never
(11:11):
really got the full on celebration in the clubhouse after
a playoff win or playoff series win. People just don't
celebrate enough. That's got to be it is that it
every day we do something well, we should celebrate that.
Every little milestone. It's okay, it's okay to be excited.
You didn't say that about Little Owen. Well, little Owen
(11:34):
wanted to celebrate before we started. That was the problem.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
You can't all right, one thing, we're gonna we're gonna institute.
You cannot celebrate before your first practice. We have to
draw the line somewhere.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
I do that.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
No.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
I think Owen just wanted to have fun playing the sport,
and Fritz said, no, we got to put our foot
in all these kids, these other eight year old's throats
and win.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I think that was the point of consensure between you
and Owen. Fred Owen just wants to go out there
and have a good time.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Okay, And at the end of the day. At the
end of the day, how to own feel like a winner?
Kevin like a winner?
Speaker 2 (12:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Maybe right now he's running Microsoft Little Owen, maybe he
feels like a winner. It's okay to celebrate accomplishments and achievements.
I don't know what little Owen is doing.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
The achievement was today we're starting this game. That's an
achievement as it. That's an achievement right now for all
of us that we get to play this game. He
put it in perspective Fred and you and you tore
him down. I don't think I tore him down. You
know what, Sometimes tough love is good love, Rodney. It
(12:43):
helps us. For an eight year old kid, yeah, I
get it. And what better time to learn than when
you're eight. It's funny about parents. I don't want to
go off on a tangent, but I'll just tell you
a story.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
So parents today are different than they were when my
kids were a little, When Rodney the kids were little,
and if you're listening of a certain generation when your
kids were little, Right, Things change and people look at
things differently. So there's a story. There's a pre school.
The preschool changes the director of the preschool. Okay, now
it's been a community preschool. People love the preschool and
(13:17):
it's like a little family. It's like a little church preschool.
Everybody loves the preschool. So they make a change with
the pastor. The pastor says, we're going to change the school.
They bring in a new director. The parents freak.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Out, all of them, all of them.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
And I talked to a few of them. You know
what they tell me. I don't know what I'm going
to tell my daughter. I said, what are you going
to tell your daughter? She's three years old? What are
you going to tell your daughter? Well, this is something
she may.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Never recover from. She's two, she's two years old. What
do you mean she'll never recover from Miss Julie not
being there anymore? Well, there mean to us? Who's mean?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Well the schools mean to who to us rints or
the kids? Well, and I'm not gonna let anybody. I'm
not gonna let anybody do this kind of thing to
my daughter.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
What are they doing? What are they doing?
Speaker 1 (14:10):
They change the way they operated the school. You have
an option stay or go? Why just take a troll.
I'm gonna sue them. You're gonna sue them. You're gonna
sue the school. What if they do to your three
year old daughter, I'm not sure she'll ever be the same.
That's today's parents right there. Today's parents sue the school.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Not teach your kid a lesson about life, but we're
gonna sue the school. Do you want to hear one
more real? Fast? This is another one.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Listen to this. Kids go on a bus. Bus goes
to Lego Land. It's a school field trip. Now there's
a roll on the bus by the way that if
the bus is moving, you can't stand up. Do not
stand up on the bus. The bus stops, you'll go
rolling down the aisle. Don't get up. Do not get
up on the bus. What if they have to go
to the bathroom? What the bus driver, No, he'll pull over.
(15:01):
There's a bathroom on the bus, all right. So anyway,
the bus driver's driving back from Lego Land, and the
kids are running up and down the aisle and screaming
and standing on the seats well, the guy pulls the
bus over and says, you guys got to knock it off.
You got to sit down. They're chaperones parents on the bus.
You gotta sit down, you gotta sit down. They don't listen.
(15:21):
So he finally pulls off just before he's supposed to
be where he's at. He gets out.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
One of the parents calls the sheriff and said, the
bus driver is holding our kids hots inside of the
bus hostage. We'll let them get off the bus. Sheriff comes.
Parents all drive up from where the pickup point was
to where the bus is. A mother records this, so
the mother's got the aftermath outside, the kids running off
the bus crying. She shows the bus driver talking to
(15:48):
the sheriff. One mother says, my eight year old will
never be the same, The traumatized will never go on
a bus again. This was so traumatizing for my eight
year old. They will never go on the bus again. Ever,
it's not going to happen. Wow.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
So everybody looks at the video and immediately thinks, oh
my god, what did this bus driver do?
Speaker 2 (16:05):
What did he say? How could this be?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
I mean, this guy's obviously a criminal, and he's intimidated
these kids and they're crying and screaming and they can't
go to the bathroom. So that video now makes the
rounds on social media, on TV, and everybody's upset with
the bus driver and the bus company. Except we got
the video from inside the bus, not the initial Oh
(16:31):
my god, my eight year old is traumatized and we'll
never go on the bus again. No, we got the
video from inside the bus. So we ran the woman
screaming my eight year old and over go on the
bus and the kids are terrorized and they can't go
to the bathroom. But you see the video from inside
the bus showed the kids running up and down the aisle,
jumping on the seats, screaming, and the chaperone sitting there.
(16:55):
Chaperone's doing nothing. You saw the bus driver told him
to stop. They did, and he finally pulled over. The
parents to this day believe their children have been harmed
for life, scarred for.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Life, scarred, they can never go on a bus again. Really,
you were around the bush, you saw what happened. You
did nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's kind of the way it is today, where everybody's
got it shot, everybody's a winner, everybody's good.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
And if you're not, we're going to overreact. Oh huge,
that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
That's the problem with the way things are, the way
kids are and the way parents are raising them, and
it's just generational.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
You know.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
When I was young, what I wanted to do is
avoid the fly swatter the frying pan.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Mm hm, because at any moment they could have been
coming after me the frying pan. Oh yeah, damn, that's right.
I didn't even want Kevin born in Detroit. Come on,
come on, stick out your tongue. Why flyswater from flyswater
to frying pan? I ever heard? You know, the belt
the switch from the tree.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Yeah, the old paddle with the with the holes in it,
you know, for the wind resistance.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
You lit from fly'swater to frying pan. Jeez, Irene Rogan
wasn't fooling around. I'll tell you that. Go ahead, Irene.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I also got this. I don't know if you got it, Rodney.
I'm Kevin. I'm sure your mother didn't do it to you. Hey, Fred,
come here a minute.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
What you say? Oh is that what you said? Do
me a favorite?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Stick out of your tongue, the old bar of soap
right on your tongue.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Nah, didn't do that one.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
She threatened me with it, but she never did it.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Oh, I got it.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Give me that potty mouth one more time. I'm gonna
watch him out that with soap. She said it a
hundred times, but she never actually did it.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I got it, I got the soap. But different then
that's all you did that today. If you do that today,
you'll be arrested. Yeah, child service is knocking at your door.
You can't do that. You can't do that kind of thing.
I don't know how we got off on that. Let's
just touch this real quick. Rotteney, oh Tony pitching in
the playoffs? All right, so everybody speculating about what it
(19:12):
will be. Mark Pryor was on with Dan Patrick a
couple of weeks ago. They said, yeah, we're trying to
figure out what we're going to do. And it seems
right now to your point, he would be a starter.
But what if you don't need him to be a starter.
Would you bring him in relief? If you bring him
(19:32):
in relief, you've lost his bat. And I think that's
now something the Dodgers are really starting to look at,
meaning they could use him in relief. It's just when
so if he's going to pitch anyway, If they said
he's going to pitch, don't you have to start him
(19:53):
now and not gamble on losing his bat?
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Well if okay, so so the scenario you're saying, the
scenario doesn't dictate that if you're up to in the
ninth and you got to have it, and you're and
he is not coming up until seventh in the lineup,
he'd just hit the inning before. You're saying, you wouldn't
(20:18):
risk bringing him in in the ninth, you know, because
you're you're afraid that if it goes the extra innings,
you don't have his bat. No, I think in the
ninth that's one thing. Yeah, that's the only time I
would bring him in to close it out. I wouldn't
bring him in in a high leverage seventh inning situation.
If he's relieving, you're bringing him in to close the
(20:41):
whole game out. And if you if you don't, then
you live with that that he didn't close it out.
But one run game, you know, got to have it
or whatever. It's a it's a World Series game, and
it's not like he would be You wouldn't do it.
If he's coming up next but if he's sixth, seventh,
(21:03):
you know, in the lineup, and you're entering into the
ninth inning, why not why not bring him out there
and close it out If you're up by one or two,
if it's tie game, no, But if you're up one
or two, yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
That's the dilemma they're kicking around. I guess you're right,
you can't bring him in the seventh.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Well, I'll say this. Andrew Freeman sold this to Jack Harris.
He says they expect him to be a starter in
the postseason. So all of our discussions about who's going
to be in the rotation and all that, Freeman basically
seems to confirm that shoe Oltani is going to be
a starter when the playoffs begin.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
In the rotation. Yeah, it's hard to imagine him not
being in there. I mean, this is now now, you're
not worried about we got forty games left. We got
to protect this, protect that. No, it's every game becomes
a must win. So yeah, why wouldn't you start him
and and allow him to go as deep as he
can go. He've already you've already tested him out. He's
(22:05):
already gone fifty sixty pitches. You know, thus far, five
six innings, let him go. Now it's time to turn
him loose.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
What how would you assess where he's at right now
pitching wise, Kevin, Rodney, Ronnie, you can weigh in two
right now. Would you trust him with the ball? Do
you think he would go out there and get the
win that on a given night.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I'll answer your question by what Andrew Freeman told Jack.
He says, we think Otani's one of the best pitchers
in Major League Baseball. His is the one that matters
above anybody else's. So if he believes that that he's
one of the best starting pitchers in all of baseball,
then it will be painstakingly obvious he's going to be
a starter in the postseason, maybe even for Game one
of a playoff series.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
And I don't think they worry about you know, we
got to get him out in the fifth, or we
got to get you know, his pitch count is at
seventy five, so we're worried about that. I think in
the postseason, that's what they've been gearing up to. And
if it's you know, the eighth and the and the
game is tight and he's throwing a one hitter and
shutting him down.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
He goes, yeah, I agree with you. There's not gonna
be a lot of pitch count when you hit the postseason.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
You gotta go.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I'm surprised Andrew Friedman actually said he's one of the
best pitchers in baseball.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
You don't think well, you know what he said, best
starters in the National League. So I guess I'm I
don't want to make sure I don't misquote him. He said,
I don't think he is one of the best starters
in the National League?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Is what he said? You don't think he is.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Well, let's see, I think Snell's better. I think glassnew
is better.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Game seven, You're you're starting glass now overs over Otani. No,
I'm starting Snell over Otani. No, you said glass now
is better. No, I guess I would start Okay, Yeah,
I guess i'd start Otoni. You're right, I guess.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
So.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Well, we're gonna find out. We we will find out
soon enough. And by the way, we're going to find
out a lot of things right the next month. It
is gonna be interesting how this whole, this whole National
League plays out. It's going to be one of the
more exciting playoffs that we've had in recent years.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
The one thing I did not mention at the top, apologies,
today's the first day of Ed Eric Dickerson joining the show.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Oh no, it's not. You was here last week, the
first day that I'm here that he's joining the show. Yes,
but before we go, you know, no, no disrespect to Ed.
We have to we have to pay tribute to the
man Robert Redford who passed away. Oh yeah, yeah, I mean,
you know, the iconic actor, producer, activists, humanitarian Robert Redford
(24:50):
did so much in his life obviously a lot of
most folks knowing from on screen, but did so much
off screen and just a all around good guy, good
human being. Robert Redford passed away eighty nine years old. Yep, yep, okay.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Eric Dickerson joins us at the top of the hour
when we come back.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
See you know how USC looks like it belongs to
the Big ten?
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Hello Rogan and Rodnie listener, did you know AM five seventy.

Speaker 5 (25:46):
Oh yeah, let's keep it moving on at Tuesday, y'all,
come on. Lot's to get too.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Don't forget the Ambassador Eric Dickerson will be joining us
at one o'clock. But right now, let's keep it moving, Freddy, All.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Right, Rodney, A look around the wild Wild NL West
was brought to you by wild Fork from Valencia to
Wincinitas and in between. Fid your wild Fork at Wildforkfoods
dot com. All right, So USC's got Michigan State coming up.
Yesterday you were kind enough to give a pair of
your tickets away. Yes, it was very generous as we
had you know, the crowd. It moved me, fred The
(26:21):
crowd down there was very energetic and moving.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
It was pro USC, which I like in this town
is most of most of La is pro USC. But
it was a good crowd, so I you know, yeah,
I felt compelled to give away two of my seats
at for this weekend's game against Michigan State, which you
know a lot of people saying, well, this is another
(26:46):
game that USC should win. Blah blah blah blah blah.
They're not gonna get tested until they go and play Illinois,
which you know, Illinois I think is ranked ninth. They
are a good football team, and playing them in Champagne,
they will absolutely be ready for USC when they come
to town is a big test. But SC's got to
continue to get better. I think every game. You know,
(27:07):
they're three and zero now every game, I think they've improved.
Still are very young in some areas, but I think
the question marks going into the season, obviously, for the
last couple of years with Lincoln Riley has been the
defense and how is the defense going to how are
they going to play? USC has always been able to
score points, but they've rarely showed that they can stop anybody.
(27:31):
And and I think that has been I think the
highlight of the season so far. You know, regardless of
who they play, the highlight is they've got some really
good players on defense, and you know the fact that
they've they've been able to kind of work their way
through this season I think is very favorable. You know,
(27:52):
we see some college teams and some programs that you
know come out of the gate and play those you know,
play extremely difficult opponents, and sometimes you can recover from
those and sometimes you can't. I mean, look at Texas
right now. You know Texas right now after playing Ohio State,
everybody's like, first of all, they're off the Archs Manning train,
(28:13):
and people are wondering if Texas is as good as
everybody thought they were to begin the season. And sometimes you,
like I said, you can recover and sometimes you can't.
But I think for USC, I think it's the perfect
for them this year. And you know, with Jayden starting
the second second year, you know, he got a lot
(28:34):
of experience last year playing after he took over from
Miller Moss, and he's he's started the season extremely well
and now he can continue that. So the fact that
they got Michigan State at home is going to be
a good thing for them. So I'm excited to see
them go four and oh to start the season. Freddie,
here's the.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Thing I look at, and it might sound very insignificant,
but when I watch them against Purdue, to me physically,
they looked like a team that could be in the
Big Ten. They looked like a Big Ten team to me.
And I guess it's a really small thing, but that
(29:13):
eye test met an awful lot. They look bigger, they
look stronger, They look like they should be in that
conference now, not the Pac twelve. The Pac twelve teams
weren't built that way. Unless we're looking at Oregon, usc
looked like a Big ten team.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Is that just too simple? Yeah it is. It depends
on the year. So you're saying that Pete Carroll teams
were not busy.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
No no, no, no, no, I'm talking about now since
they moved to the Big Ten, not Pete Carroll teams,
because they were in a different division altogether, they look
like that team.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
People could say, oh, well, they're not physical. They yet
they beat up on Michigan, They beat up on all
the Big ten teams, Ohio States, you know all those teams.
It goes in cycles. It goes in cycles, right, and
so you know, beat up on Penn State in the
Rose Bowl with Sam Darry. You know, the whole notion
though they can't play physical football is ridiculous. And I
(30:12):
know that out West, everybody believes that that's all they
do is throw the football. They can't be physical. But
Oregon has turned into a very physical team. Washington, who
made it to the championship game two years ago was
a very physical team, or otherwise they wouldn't have gotten there.
But I get the reputation part of it, but I
(30:32):
think it's just it's just an overused analogy that West
Coast teams can't be physical.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Well, let's put it like this. This year they looked
more like an SEC team. They look big. I don't
think they looked this big last year just from the
eye test.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
What does that mean just because they're big. They could
be big and slow. They can be big and weak.
Big doesn't automatically mean stronger, bigger, fat or whatever or dominant.
It just means big. So you can be big, but
it doesn't mean anything unless you can you can play.
(31:11):
You know, over the years, it's just some teams are
you know, you got to be big, but you also
got to be an athletic. You see big Boy rumble
and stumble for a seventy yard interception. Not only was
he big, but he was athletic. And that's what when
s he has been good, it'd been both. And so
you know, we'll see. Obviously the test is and that's
(31:33):
the perception is you got to be physical to be
in the big ten. But that was also the you know,
the perception is that the Big Ten was big and slow.
That's why they couldn't keep up with teams in the
SEC or even teams out West when they faced a
good team out West that that they faced in the
(31:54):
playoffs or International title game, they couldn't match up because
they were too big and slow. And that was the
knock on the Big Ten. Now you're saying that it's
you just got to be big and you can't be
physical unless you're Ohio State Michigan.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
And if you're not, then you can't win it. So
when you look at UCLA, what do you see? When
you look at UCLA, what do you see?
Speaker 2 (32:20):
I see? I see a lack of overall talent on
both sides of the ball. I think they've got talent,
but just not enough of it, and that that is
a problem. You know, they get overmatched in situations like
(32:43):
would you say, perfect example Utah. People don't you know,
people don't pay a whole lot of attention to Utah
over the years, but they have built a unbelievable program
in Utah, and year in and year out, they're winning
nine ten games and they're in the conversation most of
the time, they played in multiple Rose bowls now and
(33:05):
Utah is a very good, like I said, a very
good program. Utah is as physical and has been over
the last ten years, has been as physical as anybody.
And they manhandled u c l A manhandled UCLA. And
you know, you got to be either or you know,
(33:25):
if you're not going to be physical and big and physical,
then you you got to you gotta have the speed
and you gotta have the athleticism to get you over
the top to come back that and UCLA unfortunately doesn't
have you know, they don't have either of that. And
as they now enter into the conference playing the Big Ten,
(33:47):
it's it's going to be extremely difficult, because I will
give you that to the point where they they are
going to look overmatched because that's the way the Big
Ten is built is big, physical guys and the combat
that you got to have speed. And although UCLA does
have a few guys that can run and can play
(34:08):
on the outside, but is Nico going to be able
to get the ball off to him? And when they
play Iowa, or they play Michigan or they play Penn State,
you just worry that they are just again physically not
going to be a hold up and then also speed
wise not going to be able to hold up.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
All right, let's have a quick injury update here before
we bring Eric Dickerson on right after the top of
the hour break. Sean McVay did suffer an injury during
the Rams victory over Tennessee. He was not on special teams.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
No, he didn't run down on kickoff.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
No, he did not run down on kickoffs. But he
did tear his planter fascia during the victory. Rodney, can
you speak about that injury?
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Please? Do you know what your planet fasci is? Fred
foot injury? Yeah, we're in the foot bottom of your foot. Yeah,
technically it's your art. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know how
he did it. I don't know if he got trampled
or he stepped wrong. Usually it's not it's a non
(37:05):
contact contact type of injury, much like an Achilles tendon,
where it just snaps because you either snap step wrong,
or you had some weakness somewhere. It was just an
awkward fall or stress on the tendon. Kind of same
thing with that. It's just you know, as you're moving
around and you step awkwardly or or there there was
(37:29):
stress in your arts. Then then it happened. So I
don't know what the you know, what he's got to
go through to get that better. I don't know the
degree of the injury. But it's not fun. It's not pleasant.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
Well, it's not often you hear after the game the
coach had an MRI. Tinly unusual. Well, the coach has
an MRI.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Yeah, but he was limping around at the end of
the game, and some people thought he was being dramatic,
and he really was, and it just hurt, you know,
his his game day is different than Andy Reid. You know,
Andy Reid kind of waddles up and down the sideline
where as Sean McVay. You know, if the guy is
running for a long game, he's gonna run, you know,
down the sideline with him and try to try to
beat him to the end zone. So he's very active
(38:09):
on game day. So I'm not surprised that he hasn't
had more injuries. Actually, so, are you suggesting Andy Reid
would not suffer an injury like this? Probably not? Probably not.
If Andy Reid were to suffer an injury, what kind
of injury do you think he'd suffer? M Well, let's see,
he he loves a good burger. Sure, yeah, he loves
(38:31):
a good burger. Maybe some intergestion could be right, Yeah,
maybe that, but that's, you know, curable way, just having
some thumbs on the sideline, right, He wouldn't need an MRI. No,
I don't think so. I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah, all right, So the good news Sean McVay will
not be in the injury list for the Rams next game.
The Rams next games against pretty good oponent too.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Yeah, you got to go to Philly. Yeah, rematch of
the playoff game last year where they had Philly on
the ropes. People, forget that, man, they had them on
the ropes. Big, you know, first and ten on the
twenty I believe going in to go win that game
with let's I think around two minutes to go, and
we weren't able to punch it in, but played them
tough in the snow. And that was after Saquon Barkley
(39:20):
ran for about eight hundred yards against them as well,
so they were still in that game. Yeah, it'll be interesting.
I know people want to make more of it. It's
better to, I guess, get these games out of the
way early because people, you know, much like when Philly
played Kansas City, everybody wants to build it up and
make more into it than what it is, Like Baltimore
and Buffalo played early. Oh my god, this is this.
(39:42):
No team's going to be completely different when December rolls
around as opposed to what they are now. But it's fun.
It's a fun matchup and it's a good matchup, and
I think people get excited about that. So good scheduling
by the NFL.
