(04:23):
with a different baseball team. Don'tknow if you caught it. Should I
change the channel because no, he'snot looking. He's coming right now.
By the way, we don't needto call it the men's College World Series.

(05:31):
the two thousand and two NFL ExpansionDraft, the Houston Texans drafted this Hall
of Fame offensive tackle with the firstoverall pick, but he never played a
snap for them due to injury.And it was the Houston Texans. M
h. I'm gonna guess because theydid it kind of for fun, because
I think this guy was an oiler. I'll probably be wrong, but I'm
(05:54):
gonna say Bruce Matthew. No,it was Tony Baselli. Oh really,
same college though. Two. Goodquestion. Oh, that was very difficult.
Good question. That was difficult.What a different level of difficulty than
Donovan mcnah. Charlie's gonna get thenext one. I think he's I think

(06:18):

many years ago. Come on,see that's what happened. Just you lose

reference that I mean, the Orioles. There's a lot of oriel highlights.
Well, listen, I'll be honestwith you. I've been there quite a
few times. I believe that that'strue. But I don't think it's like
a standard reference. But Kubby Cob, if it was a standard reference,
(08:28):

keep giving Cam the easy one.Well this one's kind of easy too,

That's a hard one. That's agood one, damn, because I really
don't remember him anything but as aBraves manager. Bobby Cox. He was
a manager for the Braves, thenhe was a manager somewhere else, and
then he came back and was reallygood. Uh, Bobby Cox. I
(09:46):
never even realized it was a sabbatical. I have a guess what would make
sense. I want to say Americanleagues. I'm going to say the Indians
because I feel like wasn't he agym bro? I was gonna say the
Royal, the Blue Jays really upin Toronto. All right, Charlie,

this. The Buffalo Braves eventually becamewhich current NBA team, The Buffalo Brave,
the Buffalo Ray, Bob McAdoo,Ernie d Rigorio. Perhaps, Yeah,
they were good. Bob McAdoo wasunderrated, never really a center at

they call them. Yeah, soyou can say Indians, thank you,
Jimmy, Thank you, Jimmy.You can't say Indians anymore. And I
don't like it's making America especially.I can't believe you said. There's a
lot of teams that are still namedthe Indians. Wow. My college named
the Braves. The Cardinals are playingthe break That's different though. Yeah,
(12:52):
that's like a title within the hierarchyinstead of a whole group of people.
I don't think Braves should be canceled. Hell, I didn't even think personally
that Indians should be canting. Ido think redskins is offensive. What about?
I think I think the Chief Wahoo, the big red faced guy,
I can understand that being a part. What about they were doing the chop
(13:16):
at Bush last night? They wereBraves fans there and they started doing the
chop choppy pooh when before Hellsley closedit out, they were chopping. I
have to say as a kid whogrew up watching the superstation and watching the
chop all time, and the firsttime I ever saw it in person was
the wild Card game where you hadthe two hundred and fifty foot infield fly
roll in person, and I wasat Arrowhead once too. It was cool.
(13:39):
The chop is awesome. Now,I'm just telling that's how I feel.
If you don't like the chop,I get it. Ryan Helsley,
that's hey, he's a Native American. I'm just saying for me personally,
I think you can also honor.You can honor folks, you can honor
their warrior spirit. Where I don'tlook at it as a negative. If
other people do, hey, that'syour prerogative. I actually do think that
(14:00):
that's a homage to the warrior spirit. When the whole stadium is doing that,
it's awesome. It's very imposing.Yeah, I've never heard so many
derogatory words for Native Americans since Ibefore I went to Canada. Once you
went to Canada, Oh yeah,how I thought the US was the only
ring. Oh no, no,like you guys, you know you got
your there's racism up Ganitude. There'sracism. They only think it's us.
(14:24):
But no, no, no,no, no. Wherever there are human
beings, there's gonna be racist.They don't think, they don't think they
have it up there, but youdo. But you do remember that,
just remember that. Do you knowthat the greatest lacrosse players in the world
are Native Americans or tribes from Canada? Yeah? Really? Do you know
the national sport in Canada is lacrossenot hockey? Do you know that tribes
(14:48):
used to play lacrosse on a milea mile square? Oh, like field
polo, and it was more likewarfare than a sport, as aggressive as
it was. Yeah, lacrosse apretty cool. It's great sport. Pretty
cool. That's uh. Jeff Witslittle boy's traveling around playing lacrosse, doing
pretty damn good, great sport.Although he's traveling a lot at a young
(15:09):
age. It's like, man,that's just a lot of travel, you
know in the age. You know, there's not too many teams. I
guess you know you gotta go toPeoria to find the good talent. You
know what I mean, oh,I got news for you. I mean
I got friends of ours whose kidsplay select soccer. Yeah, and they
fly to California and they play anotherSaint Louis team. There ain't that about
a bat? Come on, andsomeone's getting paid. Tyler just had a
(15:31):
tournament Springfield, which is a drive. It's okay, that's fine, but
there's plenty of baseball teams around.I don't get like, so we picked
a select team that doesn't travel toofar. Some of them take trips all
over and they're playing teams that they'veplayed in Saint Louis. And he's been
in Vancouver for seven days, sevendays Vancouver for a good tournament. He
(15:54):
took the family up there and theystayed a little longer. But like he
went up there for a tournament forty he's seven, you know, I
mean, like that's a far drive, man, our far flight far everything
like expensive, like just just inChicago. This that like, man,
But what do you do? Notnot you fight it? What do you
do? You know? You doyou find select teams that are competitive,
(16:15):
that match your kid, where youlike the coaching staff, and then you
find one where that doesn't have totravel to California or out of state five
times. Part of the thing,too, is talking to coaches when Tyler
was younger, Those teams that traveland play too much can burn a kid
out. Before you know, thekids really all in. So just play
(16:37):
around here and then see where thekid takes you. You know, I
know. How about grab ten friendsand go to the park and play all
day long, all day long inthe park next to your house. What
if you don't have a park nextyear or everybody does. Everybody has a
park within a few miles of yourhouse. You can ride your bike,
so we all did his kids.I know, that's how I started waiting
(17:00):
to driveway. You don't need togo. You're in Saint Louis market like
twenty one in the country. Youdon't have to go to a smaller city.
You don't go to Springfield in Peoriato find better sports town. You're
in Saint Louis. How about SaintLouis is a big city. If you
go an hour, draw an hourand include all the old follons and the
bells, and the Edwardsville's and theSaint Peter's, you need to go for
(17:25):
what sport do you really need?I can see hockey but what sport do
you really need to go? Hockey? You tell me you can't find good
basketball, baseball, volleyball, soccer. How about say Lewis playing good hockey
San Louis. But I get,okay, if you have to go to
another big city for hockey, Iunderstand that. But to tell me that
you have to leave Saint Louis forbaseballs and then if you want to go
(17:45):
down south to a tournament every oncein a while in Tennessee, Springfield's okay,
isn't it Springfield better baseball than South? They had a nice tournament there.
That's why if you have a nicefield. But let me ask you
this. So Tyler has kids onhis team from Springfield, insane that drive
up for the game. Dude,Yeah, and for some of the practice,
(18:07):
huh, because they feel this isa better team than what they have
around there. You would think baseballis prevalent pretty much everywhere. Right,
These parents are gonna feel stupid whenthey get zero return on their investment,
when they're still paying out the nosefor college and their kids didn't get a
scholarship. I didn't ask him thatbecause I think that's a mean question.
So I didn't ask him that.Your answer, I mean, you're yes,
(18:34):
yes, damn right. But youhad a good time. It depends
on how the kid is. Ifyou have a good time with your kid,
he gives it's all. It justdidn't work out. Then you did
everything you're supposed to have to dad. Okay, But if your kid's half
in, half out, but youwant him to be in fully, then
you do it. Then you doit. Fall these falls, then these
kids are all in, you know, Okay. I can tell you that
the kids are nice players, Theparents are nice, and they just said
(18:57):
that this seemed like a better fit. And I don't know if they think
their kids are pro kids are goodplayers and they're all in. These are
all at this point, I thinkTyler's fifteen fifteen, you kind of know
which kids really love her, youknow, like my kid loves it.
So my son's high school basketball teamplayed at a gym from the movie Hoosiers,
(19:18):
and they played Marquette from West SaintLouis County. You mean to tell
me they couldn't find an Indiana teamto play all knowing expert my that's the
thing though, But at least yougo to that that's a that's an experience,
you know, playing in that facilitymaybe and stuff like that. My
buddy did that for his bachelor party. He wanted to play pickup games at
what is it called? I don'tknow, hey, who's your stadium?
(19:40):
Where that movie was filmed? InDame? The Championship is it's in Hindle,
right, It's in Indie. HinklefieldHouse is where the Championship was shot.
But the actual Hoosiers Gym, youcan go and rent it out and
people do it because it's fun toplay at the Hoosiers Gym. Engines is
not derogatory. It's what early settlerscalled Native Americans because of lack of education
and proper grammar. Okay, callone then that's That's the whole point,
(20:02):
dude, exactly, the whole pointand for every The whole point is they
called him that because there was aneducation. So they're trying to correct it
and say, no, this iswhat we're actually called. How about the
fact that, how about the factthat they weren't from India? Can start
exactly? Can we start that wecalled them a mistake for five hundred years
and never corrected the mistake. That'sit's not racist, it's actually geographically incorrect.
(20:23):
Yeah, it happened five hundred yearsago, and we knew pretty pretty
early on that it was in India, and we never changed the name,
which is why the name Cleveland Indiansisn't necessarily the offensive part. It's the
red face that's attached to it.But like, okay, I won't see
it again. But the term buckaroocame from the Spanish word for cowboy,
(20:44):
which I believe is bacquero's. It'snot racist for a guy who's the hey
buck who's stealing horses in Oklahoma tonot know how to pronounce baguerro. That's
all I'm saying. Buckaroo has noracial connotation though. But what I'm he
just said that the term and I'msaying it, folks, he said that
engine is derogatory because it's the wrongpronunciation of Indian. I'm saying the term
(21:07):
buckeroo, which is said all thetime, is the same exact connotation.
It's the word bakierrouet Americans could notpronounce correctly. I never knew that.
