Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, I don't know how much you guys want to
know about what I was doing last night, by the.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Way, drinking lots of honey and hot well.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I was drinking a lot of honey and hot water.
And by the way, I think I may have mentioned
this to Ian, that I I do have a little
thing of honey in hot water and tea here. And
I I realized yesterday, actually this morning, Dick, that about
ninety seconds worth of hot water and honey can come
from one shot, right, Like, I just take a sip
of this thing, and I'm golden. I mean, I'm good
(00:27):
for like ninety seconds down much better. It's incredible. I
just got to burn the crap out of my vocal
cords and that I'll be fine. Now. That can't be
good for me long term, but it's short term, is
all I give. Give me this stuck. I just gotta
get through this afternoon, boys and girls. That will be fine,
But I will h I've learned over the years it's
(00:48):
good to be honest with the audience and and share
as much as I can and not hide anything from
you guys. Souh. I was buck naked watching that Tyrese
Halibert game.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Warder, by the way, before or after he at the shot,
you were.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Not during before and after, because I understand after the
shot you're getting naked and running around the streets.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Okay, So here's the thing. I because of the situation,
my voice is in and I'm really trying not to
yell on the ear. That's by the way. I'm trying
to keep the voice down a little bit here. Because
of the situation, my vocal cords are in. Me and
Steam have spent a lot of time together in the
last couple of days. Hot, shower, whatever, Right, Okay, So
I'm about to get in the shower and I grabbed
(01:29):
my phone and I see that the Pacers are down
by one. I'm like, you gotta be kidding me, because.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
When was the last time you checked the score?
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Nutes earlier or whatever that they were getting it was
over they were getting killed, right, I mean, did the
Pacers not scored thirty five points in the fourth quarter
last night? Yes? Yeah, and they outscored in by ten.
So I grabbed my phone and I'm literally the showers running.
It's like it's like weird science. The water is running
all day. You said you're in there combing your air,
I'm like, dude, I'm watching the freaking game on my phone.
(02:00):
I can't put my phone down. And then Tyrese Halliburton
hits this game winning shot and instead of getting in
the shower, I waited until the last three tenths of
a second over and the entire bathroom is steamed up
like I'm in a freaking sauna somewhere. Man, it was
a fucking write my name on the window for against
(02:21):
the final three tenths of a second. It took forever,
right with the timeouts and all that stuff. But look,
I was talking to Forness about this on the air.
Is it possible? And certainly it's possible. And I still
think Oklahoma City wins the series. I think you do too, right,
If you were a betting man, head yes, gun to
your head, you'd say Indiana when you say Okaoma City
(02:42):
wins a series? Yes, but how much? If if I like,
for example, I want you to put yourself in my shoes,
and I'll put myself in your shoes. Because I told
you on the AAR Tuesday I thought there was no shot.
You said twenty percent. If you thought there was no
shot on Tuesday afternoon, what is that percentage now versus
(03:02):
where it was three days ago.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Well, do you have me to adjust based upon my twenty.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
That I had adjusted based on me? Like, what what
should I be? Zero?
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I think you should be fifteen to twenty percent higher.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Than wherever you were before.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
So I'm I'm at thirty five, thirty, I'm at thirty.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
That's not p certificate.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
No it's not, because I mean, holy moly, And I
was thinking about this at halftime. When you have nineteen
turnovers on the road and you have not yet been
blown out of the basketball game, then you can hang
at any point. I guarantee you there is not another
half where they turn the ball over nineteen times. That
was more than their season average for a game. And
(03:45):
and Oklahoma City did a terrible job at taking advantage
of those turnovers. They only scored eleven total points off
the twenty five Indiana turnovers. So the point it's not
the turnover differential that counts, it's the points off turnover
differential accounts like how badly do the turnovers punish the
team that turns it over? And Indiana was only a
(04:07):
minus seven points off turnovers, even though they turned it
over eighteen less times. Oklahoma State turned over seven times,
Indiana was twenty five. You're not gonna have that gap
in any other game this season, So that gives me
as much hope as anything.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Plus, well, the rebounding.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Advantage Indiana had, and that was partially because of what
Oklahoma City did and their rookie coach, you know, rookie
in this situation, coach just making some bad decisions taking
their bigs off the floor.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
They got killed on the glass.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, and it's possible that this is as good as
it gets, right, you know, I mentioned that to Ferness
and cross talk. It's possible that you've awoken the beast
and Oklahoma City just lays a whooping on um now
for four games in a row. But what they've done
is they've established a raucous crowd for Game three. I mean,
it was gonna be fired up no matter what. But Dick,
you know as well as me, there's a difference between
going home down two and tied at one, that's right,
(04:59):
I mean, it's totally freaking different. So they have established
a absolute party zone at that arena next week when
they get back for Game three. And you know, look,
I don't know how many people Jackson were looking forward
to watching Game three on Sunday at five o'clock. But
it's got my interest now suddenly.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Sure I'm going to have a much larger peak at that.
And you know, again, like it was sort of one
of those things where I made the comment of I
wouldn't watch it until the Pacers have three wins. You know,
I think I said that as early as late as
yesterday afternoon. But like, because of what just happened, I
am now because here's the other thing, guys that I
really truly feel. I mean, sports psychology is such a
(05:37):
massive part of it. And now whenever Oklahoma City have
a ten point fifteen point lead, in the back of
their minds, right, they're gonna be thinking back to Game one.
And meanwhile, for the Pacers, I mean the Pacers in
this playoffs, They've been down by seven with a minute
to go against Cleveland, came back and won. They've been
down six with one forty five to go against Milwaukee,
came back to win. They've been down and white what
(05:58):
was it like, sixteen points more than in the last
three minutes against and then last night ten minutes to go.
So Pacers, clearly you're thinking doesn't matter how much we're down,
and the thunder now are going to be in their
own heads. This is going to change the entire psychology
of this entire series.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Well, I'll tell you what I mean. I could I
could hear somebody, and first of all, I love that
we're coming together like this as sports fans in seatt
Or rooting against Oklahoma City because it's all we have
right now. And I can hear somebody saying, God, you
guys are pathetic. You're just rooting for them to lose
because your team sucks. No, we have no team like
this is like like when the when? When when we
root against Oregon as Husky fans and the Huskies have
(06:37):
had a bad year. Okay, yeah, the Huskies are terrible.
I'm rooting against the Ducks because it pisses me off.
And you know, misery loves company blah blah blah. But
I mean, dude, there's more passion for this right now
than there might be for marit of baseball from some
people in seapt I mean to me, and I don't
know what you guys thoughts on this are to be
(06:58):
curious to know four nine, four to five. This is
the number one thing on my plate as a sports
fan right now, right now is Oklahoma City losing this
series to Indiana, And I'm thinking, my god, we did
that thing the bracket a month ago with our favorite
non Seattle sports teams of all time. If the Indiana Pacers,
Dick can find a way to pull this off, they
(07:19):
are on whatever Mount rushmore there is of that list,
your your your top four, whether it was the twenty
twenty four Ohio State Buckeyes so beat the Oregon Ducks
or that what was the Auburn.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Team with the Auburn yet team won it?
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That was then what was the final for you remember
the final four?
Speaker 4 (07:37):
I do know that the championship I believe was ohiose
Day versus Auburn.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I think that was the championship.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Because that chief team that beat the Niners when they
blew the ten point lead and gave us those breaking rocks, right,
can you feel it now? Yep? Yep. That was the
point is if the Pacers do this, they're on the list. Yep,
They're on the Mount Rush ball.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
They might be number one, they might be I mean,
I would you comparing it to the Mariners, And I
think it's interesting it got me thinking, would I sacrifice,
oh god, would I sacrifice Mariner wins between now and
the end of the NBA Finals, Meaning they go like,
oh to twelve.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Oh god? Or how long is the NBA Finals? Wait? Sorry?
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Are you?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Are you saying that you have the Marriors.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Saying they won't win another game until the finals, Mariners.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Don't win another game?
Speaker 3 (08:26):
If you can guarantee me a Pacers win over Okla
the City, I would absolutely do that.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Seven. Will you please tell me when game seven is
real quick? I'm gonna look up.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
The regular season games.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
None of that matter, I mean really, if you can,
but it isn't like you know you're losing, you're guaranteeing
like a lost playoff series, or guarantee that game seven games?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I got it goes eleventh, sixteenth, nineteen, twenty second.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Twenty second of June. Yeah, okay, so we're talking about
now and then eleven, game six, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen
to fifteen. If Game seven is on the twenty second
of June, they got fifteen games left to go. They
lose them, all, that means they're righting an eighteen game
losing street. If they lost three in a row, would
(09:21):
I say fifteen more and they're thirty two and forty four,
and they're twelve games under and their season's pretty much done. Yep.
So what you're what what What y're in essence asking
us here is would we sacrifice this season for the
thunder to lose the end?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
If they were up ten games and didn't make the playoffs?
Houston could be up ten games and not make the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Yeah, but they wouldn't. They wouldn't not make the playoffs.
To us, I don't think they'd lose.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I think if you're twelve games under, you're done. You're
done because they're not making a move. If they're twelve
years under.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Right, would you sacrifice a loss in every game play
day that a game is play Obviously onw thousand percent,
so that is six more games at all.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
They could go nine and six.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
So if we've decided that six six losses is a
no brainer one way and fifteen losses might be a
little too much, then nine or ten is probably where
we can rest on.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Right, I would not. I would not take a loss
every day until the finals are over. I would not
do that that pretty much. That would mean the end
of the season.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
The season and that would be pretty boring July and
August for us.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Well, it would be.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
But how good do we think this baseball team is? Though?
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Do we think this baseball team has a shot? Because
right now, I sure do not under currently current construction.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I know, I mean I I don't know. I'm thinking
about it now. Yeah, I want this bad. That's why.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's why I think I'm gonna sign up for two three.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Weeks are going to be so fun if we know
that they're gonna win and we can just watch Clay
Bennett suffer for three straight night.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
The only problem with it is that this Thunder team
is built to get back to the Finals again next year,
probably a year auft that.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
So they are are they ever going to be a favorite?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Like they're one of the biggest favorites of the last
forty years?
Speaker 1 (11:09):
All right? Then ask the audience four, nine, four or
five one? So the original question, let's just stick with that.
Would you sacrifice every Mariner game between now the end
of the NBA Finals. That would mean the Mariners would
be thirty two and forty four and they'd be riding
an eighteen game losing streak because they've already lost three
games in a row, right, So would you sacrifice every
(11:29):
single game the rest of the way if the Thunder
can be guaranteed that they will not win the NBA chance?
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Well, some Mariner fans would say yes, because someone Jerry
to go and that might be enough to get him
to go.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Well, I guess, I mean it just comes down to
what Jackson said. If you if you think the Mariners
are kind of doing this with you know, smoking mirrors,
smoking mirrors anyway, right, and they're eventually going to fall apart,
and they say, what the hell's the difference? At least
I get a Thunder loss.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
At least I get something out of it.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Well, I guarantee you eighteen games in a row, somebody's
getting fired before the All Star breaking and it might
be Jerry Depono if they lose eighteen games in a row.
I don't know. We're pathetic.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
We are.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
We are.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
That's why I had so much fun today with the
various clips from Tyreus Halliburton's winner, because it's just it's joy,
It's just pure joy, and we can share it with everyone.
You know that that is rooting for the Thunder to lose,
or even just enjoying the Pacers.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Kicking myself for not checking the score again after it
was ninety four to seventy nine.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I'm just I am absolutely kicking.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
That's why they wanted to.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Do that again.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
No, that's why they won. Okay, as my voice goes
in department, you kidding me, that's dick. That's why they
did it because I got naked and stood outside the shower,
because Jackson ignored it, because you didn't give a damn
because you thought the game was over. I mean, whatever
you did in game one, you did it.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
The right way.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Hey. By the way, we were going to play a
bunch of these highlights. We'll do that next segment. Jackson
spent a bunch of time getting all these international versions.
I didn't realize the game was being broadcast in Iceland,
by the way, about some of the best ones. I
didn't realize they were big basketball fans in Iceland. Amazing
did they spend a lot of time playing basketball?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Iceland can't play outside.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
So we're got a we're got a bunch of clips
on that. Let you hear what that sounded like? Hum
Malone's coming up, fun with audio coming up. We got

of that. Oh my god, Well that was maybe that
was it. Maybe Pennell had to hit the can. Who knows, man,

Speaker 1 (15:46):
Yes, yes, he's Is he the most clutch player right
now in the NBA today?
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Well yeah, I mean when you do that five times
in a playoffs I was looking at the there was
a stat today since nineteen ninety seven, so really post
all of Jordan's titles except the last two. They had
most game winning field goals in the playoffs inside five
seconds to play? Right, Lebron was number one at eight.
(16:12):
Tyres Halliburton has now tied Kobe Bryant for second at five.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Wow, he's done it all this year.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Well, the teams that how how many points were they
down by last night?
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Yes, you were down four to fifty fifteen four?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
What was the score with three minutes left to go?
They were down by nine? Is that right? Yes?
Speaker 5 (16:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Okay, So teams that were trailing by nine points or
more in the final three minutes of an NBA Finals
game since nineteen seventy one were oh and one hundred
and eighty one excuse me, one hundred and eighty two,
and they won Finally, for the first time last night.
Now I could see somebody tuning in right now here
(16:52):
in this radio show, here, in this conversation, these idiots
reacting like the Pacers won the NBA Championship and the
thunder got eliminated last night. Can you imagine what that
show is going to sound like if they do actually
pull this off on Because we are we are, we
are lathering ourselves up over a game one win. We
haven't talked about anything.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
There will be hard liquor, there will be there will

Well, let's go back to last night real quick. I
do want to sneak in some mad in the conversation
if we can. Jackson's put together some international calls from
that play.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
The world, were in their basement.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Well, yeah, give it to me. I can't stand up.
(21:00):
That's that sounded like zoom call it didn't it sound
like two dudes and the money on the pasters. And
when it sounded like, oh that's awesome, that is good stuff,
good stuff. Well, let's keep her going. Let's keep her going.
Come on, come on, pacers, keep her goings. All right,
let's uh, let's uh pull a one eighty. Let's talk
some maritors.
Speaker 12 (21:20):
Lamerators backed in a corner here that of their final
stripe tye and run aboard on a know two. That's
how it is is La Marators fall today by a run.
They are swept by the Orioles and a really disappointing
home stand finishes three and sentis.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You see, pino, That's how you do a frustration call
you pissed off? Right, there Aaron Goldsmith think thanks to
Rude Sports for that. By the way, so Mariners are
three and eight in their last eleven uh, Brian will
got rocked a little bit last night. Was okay until
the sixth thenning back to back home runs to Rushman
and Henderson. But I think the concern about the Mariners
right now is is pretty obvious that where would this
(21:58):
team be without cal Raley. Right now, they be cooked
without cal Raley. And I saw Mike Varrell's piece in
the paper and it was like some bizarro world. How
many times have we set on the air in the
last year and a half to two years? God, the
Mariners have got to get Julio Rodriguez some help, right
And now he's saying, God, the Mariners have got to
get cal Rawley some help. I mean, it's just unbelievable.
(22:21):
They just cannot have multiple players going off offensively at
the same time, at least they have not for the
last maybe a couple of weeks or so. And I
went and looked it up this morning that eleven of
the last nineteen runs, which is pathetic that in the
last six games the ms have only scored nineteen runs.
By the way, fifty eight percent of them, Dick have
been provided by cal Raley fifty eight percent. So he's
(22:45):
their entire offense. And by the way, ten of those
eleven runs that cal Rawley has driven in have come
on bombs. Their offense right now, is cal Raley in
the home run. That's it. That's it.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I mean, the only thing you can look at is
you can see that Julio rodriguezz ops seventy points higher
right now than it was exactly on this day last year.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Which is bananas, right, So I feel like.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
It doesn't it doesn't feel like it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
But he has had much worse aprils in Mays than
he has had this year, and we just every year
he breaks out of it, but every year it takes
him until mid June early July to breakout of it.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
He's gonna come around.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I feel like Julio Rodriguez is gonna come around like
he always does.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Now.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Having said that, cal Rale's not gonna hit sixty bombs, yeah,
he's gonna hit forty six.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Forty six, by the way, a new record for catchers
if he does. Forty eight's the record two years ago. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Yeah, So I mean he's gonna be, he's gonna be
right there. But my point is, if he's got twenty
four now, I only think he's probably going to double
what he has right now in like two thirds of
the season. He's gonna slow down. He has to slow down.
But managers and pitchers have got to stop doing what
they did last game, and that's pitched to him with
a runner on third and two outs.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
It was belie. I like the fact that we're already
seeing articles written because I feel like, you know, the
three of us and the Yah who's on this radio
station go on the air and say stuff about, you know,
we got to make a move. But when Adam Jude
starts talking like that, oh that's legitimate. Now, now there's
some teeth behind this idea. What a guy like the
Jude man gets behind it. But he's even talking about
(24:22):
here's you know, candidates for trade targets and things like that,
because I don't think they can afford to wait. I mean,
they went out and got Tavares and he's terrible. Obviously
there's a reason why he got licked by the Rangers, clearly,
but I don't think the M's can afford to wait.
They gotta make a move, and I think the Hori
Polanco train is coming to an end. One for four
again last night, he realize his last multi hit game
(24:42):
was five weeks ago. April twenty ninth was Horiy Polanco's
last multi hit game, and since then he's hitting a
buck forty with a four h five ohps. So I
don't know how much longer they can rely on this guy, Dick.
They got to make a move and replace him in
their line up.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I mean, you've got multiple spots that you're just you're
just one.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I mean, is is Cole Young gonna forever play good
defense and hit one fifty?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
I mean he'said sixty nine right now.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Williamson is the guy to look at.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Setting it back has done, Williamson going to continue to
do what he's done the last three weeks, which is
basically two hundred hitter. I mean, there's just so many
holes that have to be filled offensively that you're just
you're not going to get into a playoff situation. And
we talked about six through nine being I was worried
about six through nine. Well, hell now I'm worried about
I'm worried about two, five, six, seven, eight nine. I'm
(25:33):
not worried about JP. I'm not worried about Call and
I'm really not worried about Julio either.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
So there's six of the nine spots I'm worried about.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
There's an obvious target in Arizona's name is Aohaneo Suarez
and Corbyn Burns is out for the year. Diamondbacks are
falling apart. He's a free agent when the year's over.
Suarez is and I could talk yesterday about not wanting
to give up a big gun for a short term rental.
I'm not saying I would trade Harry Ford for Suarez.
That'd be ridiculous. But he's he's a free agent in
(26:01):
four months, and he knows how to hitting this ballpark.
He's hitting the ball well. It would be so Mariner, though, Dick,
for the Mariners to go out and get Auo Hanio
Suarez back, because they did the same stupid thing with
Mitch Hanniger when they should have kept Tioscar Hernandez. They
let him walk. They brought Handeger back. You know, they
let Suarez go because they tried to save some money.
And Jackson and I had to look it up. Remember
(26:23):
the guy they signed in free agency to take his
spot two years ago at third base. Remember his name, Arius,
yea Marius, the Luis Urius experiments. How that worked out?
Huh Meantime, au Hanio goes to Arizona and smacks the
piss out of the ball with the Diamondbacks, and now
we're talking about bringing him back. He never should have
let the guy walk in the first place, of course,
(26:44):
and now we're talking about bringing him back. So look,
it's irritating as hell, but it's an obvious move because
the guy knows how to hit. Here, We're gonna break
a little fun with audio next on ninety three to
three KJRFF.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
It's now time for something in Dick's one with a
Jimmy gawn Star Jimmy mister garoppolo.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Now let's have some fun with audio.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
All right, we're back on a U. What is this Friday?
Friday afternoon? Busy Friday? Right here on ninety three three
kJ r FM, Softy Dick Jackson with you till five o'clock.
Game two Stanley Cup Finals, Edmonton, Florida, coming up at
five pm from Canada. UH Sports USA Radio. But right now, though,
fun with audio slash. Hey did you hear that?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (27:25):
Dick.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Did you happen to hear that?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Dick? We start with the ESPN's first take, diving into
the political sphere again on Wednesday, when steven A Smith
was asked if he would rather be the head coach
of the Knicks or head of state. Chris mad dog
Russo also chiming in.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Would you rather be head coach of the Knicks or
head of state?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Well, head of state? What does that mean?
Speaker 6 (27:52):
You're talking about the presidency, right, the President of the.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
United States, the United States of America. Yes, and then
say that you don't just say head of state, you
say the presidency.
Speaker 12 (28:02):
Milo, Sorry, steven A.
Speaker 7 (28:04):
Would you rather be head coach of the next or
President of the United States?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Oh, Doggie, I would have to say the presidency myself.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
I say President seed the United States of America. But
how would you make our production?
Speaker 7 (28:17):
Meeting steven A at seven in the morning, and.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
As I'm making now, can you see stephen A trying
to negotiate the Ukraine Russia situation.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
I would have tried to negotiate it, but I know
that Russia's ultimate quests to recapture and I don't wish
that to happen therefore I would, I would, I would
help out you.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Great, we're not getting into politics.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Yeah, I feel like you just did. This whole thing
is turning into kind of a meme, isn't it. Absolutely.
I mean, it's either either do it or don't do it.
For God's sakes.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
In my opinion, first take has jumped the shark. It
has jumped the shark and become like just too wild
and crazy. I used to enjoy it, and now I
don't watch it nearly as much anymore because it's just
too bizarre.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Well, I just feel like he's gonna milk this presidency
thing as much as he can and then either announced
he's running and finished like eightieth or just say I'm
done in the last two and a half years of
all this nonsense talk will be for nothing, right, Yeah,
that's probably right when people vote for him. Would you
vote for Stephen A.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Smith for I don't know who's my my options?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Well, that's good.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Questions are usually freak terrible, So.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Oh god, Jackson, would you vote for Steven A for president?
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I'm also a dick. Show me what the other side is.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
For the last decade a dead guy is I mean,
not to get political but since we've already gone, there
is it JD.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Vans versus stephen A.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Smith, Stephen A Smith or Howard Schultz. You gotta pick one. Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that? What's that? Dick? Let's
go back to the NBA and Gobertrinas's YouTube show. This week,
the former NBA guard took yachts at the body of
Knick center Carl Anthony Towns and said, his body is
built like a girl's body after.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
A cat himself. It's him, it's his physical makeup, long legs,
short tousa, big ass feet.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
There's nothing he can do.
Speaker 7 (30:17):
He's built like a whole bitch gets built like a
girl girl his he's like a full w n B
A player.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Wow, I hadn't heard that one.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
I don't even know what to saynus I would say,
say he didn't walk across the line, he long jumped
across the line.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
And you play the first like five seconds of that
when he's describing his body, please hit it again and
then just and then just think in your mind's eye
what your wife would say if you sent her body after.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
On cat himself.
Speaker 7 (31:02):
It's him, it's his physical make up. Long legs, short tuls,
big ass feet.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
He can.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
And you know what we're you idiots? You do what
love that cut? Were you doing the show? Jackson?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
When Hugh just went off on Karl anthony towns last week,
it was Andrews, you can't stand Karl Anthony, so he
would agree with you. I don't know if he thinks
he's a.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Built like a woman, but he do.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Most women have long legs, short torsos, and big ass
fet idea.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
I've seen girls with long legs. I've seen girls with
short legs, long tostos.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
All right, did you happen to hear that what's that? Dick?
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Three? Or four? Pick one?
Speaker 7 (31:49):
Four?
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Timely?
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Al right? The women the Women's College World Series championship
between Texas and Texas Tech. Did you hear the the
picture for Texas Tech? What's her name? Canaday? Kennedy already
has another million dollars deal for next year to come
back take it?
Speaker 2 (32:05):
Yeah, more than you're gonna make.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
In the professional site, Brittany and Patrick Mahomes were at
the game last night. Red Raiders beat the Longhorns four
to three in Game two to force a decisive Game three. Tonight.
Here was the final call on ESPN yesterday with our Queen,
the Legend, the one and only best moments.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Here's the ok.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Kennedy to lovers in the biggest comment, preserves the lead
and ebies the championship series in one game a case.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Four to three Red Raiders.
Speaker 8 (32:46):
The final, and we've got.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
A game three tomorrow night in Oklahoma City, forty one
yards Red Raiders four to three Final.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
God, I love her. I hated her at first, Now
I love her now. It's like a Stockholm syndrome type thing.
I cannot get enough.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
And she appreciates the show as well as we found
out in the Osky.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Oh god, dude, I just did you see the Mahomes
last night going bananas at that game yesterday?
Speaker 9 (33:10):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:11):
I saw like an interview they were doing Brittany and
Patrick on on so.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I wonder, I wonder how much he contributes to the
Red Raider collective to get a player like her to
come back.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
I would imagine sizeably.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
You know, well, he's big in THEO women, doesn't doesn't
he own He and his wife own the women's soccer team, right?
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Would it shock you if Brittany and Patrick Mahomes gave
rus so you know what, why do you come back
to it again? Don't worry about next year, focus on
game three. Here's a million bucks for next time. Absolutely,
I can see them doing that. We're gonna break. Hugh
Miller gonna join next on ninety three to three kJ RFM.
Wow
Well, I don't know how much you guys want to
know about what I was doing last night, by the.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Way, drinking lots of honey and hot well.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I was drinking a lot of honey and hot water.
And by the way, I think I may have mentioned
this to Ian, that I I do have a little
thing of honey in hot water and tea here. And
I I realized yesterday, actually this morning, Dick, that about
ninety seconds worth of hot water and honey can come
from one shot, right, Like, I just take a sip
of this thing, and I'm golden. I mean, I'm good
(00:27):
for like ninety seconds down much better. It's incredible. I
just got to burn the crap out of my vocal
cords and that I'll be fine. Now. That can't be
good for me long term, but it's short term, is
all I give. Give me this stuck. I just gotta
get through this afternoon, boys and girls. That will be fine,
But I will h I've learned over the years it's
(00:48):
good to be honest with the audience and and share
as much as I can and not hide anything from
you guys. Souh. I was buck naked watching that Tyrese
Halibert game.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Warder, by the way, before or after he at the shot,
you were.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Not during before and after, because I understand after the
shot you're getting naked and running around the streets.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Okay, So here's the thing. I because of the situation,
my voice is in and I'm really trying not to
yell on the ear. That's by the way. I'm trying
to keep the voice down a little bit here. Because
of the situation, my vocal cords are in. Me and
Steam have spent a lot of time together in the
last couple of days. Hot, shower, whatever, Right, Okay, So
I'm about to get in the shower and I grabbed
(01:29):
my phone and I see that the Pacers are down
by one. I'm like, you gotta be kidding me, because.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
When was the last time you checked the score?
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Nutes earlier or whatever that they were getting it was
over they were getting killed, right, I mean, did the
Pacers not scored thirty five points in the fourth quarter
last night? Yes? Yeah, and they outscored in by ten.
So I grabbed my phone and I'm literally the showers running.
It's like it's like weird science. The water is running
all day. You said you're in there combing your air,
I'm like, dude, I'm watching the freaking game on my phone.
(02:00):
I can't put my phone down. And then Tyrese Halliburton
hits this game winning shot and instead of getting in
the shower, I waited until the last three tenths of
a second over and the entire bathroom is steamed up
like I'm in a freaking sauna somewhere. Man, it was
a fucking write my name on the window for against
(02:21):
the final three tenths of a second. It took forever,
right with the timeouts and all that stuff. But look,
I was talking to Forness about this on the air.
Is it possible? And certainly it's possible. And I still
think Oklahoma City wins the series. I think you do too, right,
If you were a betting man, head yes, gun to
your head, you'd say Indiana when you say Okaoma City
(02:42):
wins a series? Yes, but how much? If if I like,
for example, I want you to put yourself in my shoes,
and I'll put myself in your shoes. Because I told
you on the AAR Tuesday I thought there was no shot.
You said twenty percent. If you thought there was no
shot on Tuesday afternoon, what is that percentage now versus
(03:02):
where it was three days ago.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Well, do you have me to adjust based upon my twenty.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
That I had adjusted based on me? Like, what what
should I be? Zero?
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I think you should be fifteen to twenty percent higher.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Than wherever you were before.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
So I'm I'm at thirty five, thirty, I'm at thirty.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
That's not p certificate.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
No it's not, because I mean, holy moly, And I
was thinking about this at halftime. When you have nineteen
turnovers on the road and you have not yet been
blown out of the basketball game, then you can hang
at any point. I guarantee you there is not another
half where they turn the ball over nineteen times. That
was more than their season average for a game. And
(03:45):
and Oklahoma City did a terrible job at taking advantage
of those turnovers. They only scored eleven total points off
the twenty five Indiana turnovers. So the point it's not
the turnover differential that counts, it's the points off turnover
differential accounts like how badly do the turnovers punish the
team that turns it over? And Indiana was only a
(04:07):
minus seven points off turnovers, even though they turned it
over eighteen less times. Oklahoma State turned over seven times,
Indiana was twenty five. You're not gonna have that gap
in any other game this season, So that gives me
as much hope as anything.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Plus, well, the rebounding.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Advantage Indiana had, and that was partially because of what
Oklahoma City did and their rookie coach, you know, rookie
in this situation, coach just making some bad decisions taking
their bigs off the floor.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
They got killed on the glass.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, and it's possible that this is as good as
it gets, right, you know, I mentioned that to Ferness
and cross talk. It's possible that you've awoken the beast
and Oklahoma City just lays a whooping on um now
for four games in a row. But what they've done
is they've established a raucous crowd for Game three. I mean,
it was gonna be fired up no matter what. But Dick,
you know as well as me, there's a difference between
going home down two and tied at one, that's right,
(04:59):
I mean, it's totally freaking different. So they have established
a absolute party zone at that arena next week when
they get back for Game three. And you know, look,
I don't know how many people Jackson were looking forward
to watching Game three on Sunday at five o'clock. But
it's got my interest now suddenly.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Sure I'm going to have a much larger peak at that.
And you know, again, like it was sort of one
of those things where I made the comment of I
wouldn't watch it until the Pacers have three wins. You know,
I think I said that as early as late as
yesterday afternoon. But like, because of what just happened, I
am now because here's the other thing, guys that I
really truly feel. I mean, sports psychology is such a
(05:37):
massive part of it. And now whenever Oklahoma City have
a ten point fifteen point lead, in the back of
their minds, right, they're gonna be thinking back to Game one.
And meanwhile, for the Pacers, I mean the Pacers in
this playoffs, They've been down by seven with a minute
to go against Cleveland, came back and won. They've been
down six with one forty five to go against Milwaukee,
came back to win. They've been down and white what
(05:58):
was it like, sixteen points more than in the last
three minutes against and then last night ten minutes to go.
So Pacers, clearly you're thinking doesn't matter how much we're down,
and the thunder now are going to be in their
own heads. This is going to change the entire psychology
of this entire series.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Well, I'll tell you what I mean. I could I
could hear somebody, and first of all, I love that
we're coming together like this as sports fans in seatt
Or rooting against Oklahoma City because it's all we have
right now. And I can hear somebody saying, God, you
guys are pathetic. You're just rooting for them to lose
because your team sucks. No, we have no team like
this is like like when the when? When when we
root against Oregon as Husky fans and the Huskies have
(06:37):
had a bad year. Okay, yeah, the Huskies are terrible.
I'm rooting against the Ducks because it pisses me off.
And you know, misery loves company blah blah blah. But
I mean, dude, there's more passion for this right now
than there might be for marit of baseball from some
people in seapt I mean to me, and I don't
know what you guys thoughts on this are to be
(06:58):
curious to know four nine, four to five. This is
the number one thing on my plate as a sports
fan right now, right now is Oklahoma City losing this
series to Indiana, And I'm thinking, my god, we did
that thing the bracket a month ago with our favorite
non Seattle sports teams of all time. If the Indiana Pacers,
Dick can find a way to pull this off, they
(07:19):
are on whatever Mount rushmore there is of that list,
your your your top four, whether it was the twenty
twenty four Ohio State Buckeyes so beat the Oregon Ducks
or that what was the Auburn.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Team with the Auburn yet team won it?
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That was then what was the final for you remember
the final four?
Speaker 4 (07:37):
I do know that the championship I believe was ohiose
Day versus Auburn.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I think that was the championship.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Because that chief team that beat the Niners when they
blew the ten point lead and gave us those breaking rocks, right,
can you feel it now? Yep? Yep. That was the
point is if the Pacers do this, they're on the list. Yep,
They're on the Mount Rush ball.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
They might be number one, they might be I mean,
I would you comparing it to the Mariners, And I
think it's interesting it got me thinking, would I sacrifice,
oh god, would I sacrifice Mariner wins between now and
the end of the NBA Finals, Meaning they go like,
oh to twelve.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Oh god? Or how long is the NBA Finals? Wait? Sorry?
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Are you?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Are you saying that you have the Marriors.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Saying they won't win another game until the finals, Mariners.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Don't win another game?
Speaker 3 (08:26):
If you can guarantee me a Pacers win over Okla
the City, I would absolutely do that.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Seven. Will you please tell me when game seven is
real quick? I'm gonna look up.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
The regular season games.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
None of that matter, I mean really, if you can,
but it isn't like you know you're losing, you're guaranteeing
like a lost playoff series, or guarantee that game seven games?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I got it goes eleventh, sixteenth, nineteen, twenty second.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Twenty second of June. Yeah, okay, so we're talking about
now and then eleven, game six, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen
to fifteen. If Game seven is on the twenty second
of June, they got fifteen games left to go. They
lose them, all, that means they're righting an eighteen game
losing street. If they lost three in a row, would
(09:21):
I say fifteen more and they're thirty two and forty four,
and they're twelve games under and their season's pretty much done. Yep.
So what you're what what What y're in essence asking
us here is would we sacrifice this season for the
thunder to lose the end?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
If they were up ten games and didn't make the playoffs?
Houston could be up ten games and not make the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Yeah, but they wouldn't. They wouldn't not make the playoffs.
To us, I don't think they'd lose.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I think if you're twelve games under, you're done. You're
done because they're not making a move. If they're twelve
years under.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Right, would you sacrifice a loss in every game play
day that a game is play Obviously onw thousand percent,
so that is six more games at all.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
They could go nine and six.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
So if we've decided that six six losses is a
no brainer one way and fifteen losses might be a
little too much, then nine or ten is probably where
we can rest on.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Right, I would not. I would not take a loss
every day until the finals are over. I would not
do that that pretty much. That would mean the end
of the season.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
The season and that would be pretty boring July and
August for us.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Well, it would be.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
But how good do we think this baseball team is? Though?
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Do we think this baseball team has a shot? Because
right now, I sure do not under currently current construction.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I know, I mean I I don't know. I'm thinking
about it now. Yeah, I want this bad. That's why.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's why I think I'm gonna sign up for two three.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Weeks are going to be so fun if we know
that they're gonna win and we can just watch Clay
Bennett suffer for three straight night.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
The only problem with it is that this Thunder team
is built to get back to the Finals again next year,
probably a year auft that.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
So they are are they ever going to be a favorite?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Like they're one of the biggest favorites of the last
forty years?
Speaker 1 (11:09):
All right? Then ask the audience four, nine, four or
five one? So the original question, let's just stick with that.
Would you sacrifice every Mariner game between now the end
of the NBA Finals. That would mean the Mariners would
be thirty two and forty four and they'd be riding
an eighteen game losing streak because they've already lost three
games in a row, right, So would you sacrifice every
(11:29):
single game the rest of the way if the Thunder
can be guaranteed that they will not win the NBA chance?
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Well, some Mariner fans would say yes, because someone Jerry
to go and that might be enough to get him
to go.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Well, I guess, I mean it just comes down to
what Jackson said. If you if you think the Mariners
are kind of doing this with you know, smoking mirrors,
smoking mirrors anyway, right, and they're eventually going to fall apart,
and they say, what the hell's the difference? At least
I get a Thunder loss.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
At least I get something out of it.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Well, I guarantee you eighteen games in a row, somebody's
getting fired before the All Star breaking and it might
be Jerry Depono if they lose eighteen games in a row.
I don't know. We're pathetic.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
We are.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
We are.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
That's why I had so much fun today with the
various clips from Tyreus Halliburton's winner, because it's just it's joy,
It's just pure joy, and we can share it with everyone.
You know that that is rooting for the Thunder to lose,
or even just enjoying the Pacers.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Kicking myself for not checking the score again after it
was ninety four to seventy nine.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I'm just I am absolutely kicking.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
That's why they wanted to.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Do that again.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
No, that's why they won. Okay, as my voice goes
in department, you kidding me, that's dick. That's why they
did it because I got naked and stood outside the shower,
because Jackson ignored it, because you didn't give a damn
because you thought the game was over. I mean, whatever
you did in game one, you did it.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
The right way.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Hey. By the way, we were going to play a
bunch of these highlights. We'll do that next segment. Jackson
spent a bunch of time getting all these international versions.
I didn't realize the game was being broadcast in Iceland,
by the way, about some of the best ones. I
didn't realize they were big basketball fans in Iceland. Amazing
did they spend a lot of time playing basketball?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Iceland can't play outside.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
So we're got a we're got a bunch of clips
on that. Let you hear what that sounded like? Hum
Malone's coming up, fun with audio coming up. We got

You know what it was like. It was like he
had to go to the bathroom. Yeah he did. He's like,
I gotta get out of here. I gotta go. I'm here.
Come on, Dick, I mean you could at least, you know,
it was bad him a little bit of disappointment there
for crying out.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Oh we hear if it was it was case, if
it was any of our brig I mean we'd hear anguish.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Ro Dude, Rondo.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah, discussed with disgusted, just frustration, and there was none
of that. Oh my god, Well that was maybe that
was it. Maybe Pennell had to hit the can. Who knows, man,
but that was the Thunder radio call of the Tyrese
Haliburton game winning jumper. What about the other side, Here's
a long time Pacer voice, Mark Boyle on one oh
(15:23):
seven to five of the fan and indye, the Pacers are.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Not going to call a time out. Caddleburton has it

Team do that? Beautiful great car?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
How many more times can that man do that?
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Yes, yes, he's Is he the most clutch player right
now in the NBA today?
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Well yeah, I mean when you do that five times
in a playoffs I was looking at the there was
a stat today since nineteen ninety seven, so really post
all of Jordan's titles except the last two. They had
most game winning field goals in the playoffs inside five
seconds to play? Right, Lebron was number one at eight.
(16:12):
Tyres Halliburton has now tied Kobe Bryant for second at five.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Wow, he's done it all this year.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Well, the teams that how how many points were they
down by last night?
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Yes, you were down four to fifty fifteen four?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
What was the score with three minutes left to go?
They were down by nine? Is that right? Yes?
Speaker 5 (16:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Okay, So teams that were trailing by nine points or
more in the final three minutes of an NBA Finals
game since nineteen seventy one were oh and one hundred
and eighty one excuse me, one hundred and eighty two,
and they won Finally, for the first time last night.
Now I could see somebody tuning in right now here
(16:52):
in this radio show, here, in this conversation, these idiots
reacting like the Pacers won the NBA Championship and the
thunder got eliminated last night. Can you imagine what that
show is going to sound like if they do actually
pull this off on Because we are we are, we
are lathering ourselves up over a game one win. We
haven't talked about anything.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
There will be hard liquor, there will be there will
be plenty of, a full spread of food.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
It will just be a four.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
We might have our own parade on the air.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Yes, that happens.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Well, let's go back to last night real quick. I
do want to sneak in some mad in the conversation
if we can. Jackson's put together some international calls from
that play.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
We just like hearing foreign languages on the radio show.
It's always fun.
Speaker 4 (17:38):

So we have now audio from Tyler's Tyrese Haliburton's final
shot from Brazil, France, Iceland, ESPN, Deportis, Albania, the Netherlands, Turkey, French, Canadian, Croatia, Spain,

Speaker 2 (20:37):
The world, were in their basement.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Well, yeah, give it to me. I can't stand up.
(21:00):
That's that sounded like zoom call it didn't it sound
like two dudes and the money on the pasters. And
when it sounded like, oh that's awesome, that is good stuff,
good stuff. Well, let's keep her going. Let's keep her going.
Come on, come on, pacers, keep her goings. All right,
let's uh, let's uh pull a one eighty. Let's talk
some maritors.
Speaker 12 (21:20):
Lamerators backed in a corner here that of their final
stripe tye and run aboard on a know two. That's
how it is is La Marators fall today by a run.
They are swept by the Orioles and a really disappointing
home stand finishes three and sentis.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You see, pino, That's how you do a frustration call
you pissed off? Right, there Aaron Goldsmith think thanks to
Rude Sports for that. By the way, so Mariners are
three and eight in their last eleven uh, Brian will
got rocked a little bit last night. Was okay until
the sixth thenning back to back home runs to Rushman
and Henderson. But I think the concern about the Mariners
right now is is pretty obvious that where would this
(21:58):
team be without cal Raley. Right now, they be cooked
without cal Raley. And I saw Mike Varrell's piece in
the paper and it was like some bizarro world. How
many times have we set on the air in the
last year and a half to two years? God, the
Mariners have got to get Julio Rodriguez some help, right
And now he's saying, God, the Mariners have got to
get cal Rawley some help. I mean, it's just unbelievable.
(22:21):
They just cannot have multiple players going off offensively at
the same time, at least they have not for the
last maybe a couple of weeks or so. And I
went and looked it up this morning that eleven of
the last nineteen runs, which is pathetic that in the
last six games the ms have only scored nineteen runs.
By the way, fifty eight percent of them, Dick have
been provided by cal Raley fifty eight percent. So he's
(22:45):
their entire offense. And by the way, ten of those
eleven runs that cal Rawley has driven in have come
on bombs. Their offense right now, is cal Raley in
the home run. That's it. That's it.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I mean, the only thing you can look at is
you can see that Julio rodriguezz ops seventy points higher
right now than it was exactly on this day last year.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Which is bananas, right, So I feel like.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
It doesn't it doesn't feel like it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
But he has had much worse aprils in Mays than
he has had this year, and we just every year
he breaks out of it, but every year it takes
him until mid June early July to breakout of it.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
He's gonna come around.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I feel like Julio Rodriguez is gonna come around like
he always does.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Now.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Having said that, cal Rale's not gonna hit sixty bombs, yeah,
he's gonna hit forty six.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Forty six, by the way, a new record for catchers
if he does. Forty eight's the record two years ago. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Yeah, So I mean he's gonna be, he's gonna be
right there. But my point is, if he's got twenty
four now, I only think he's probably going to double
what he has right now in like two thirds of
the season. He's gonna slow down. He has to slow down.
But managers and pitchers have got to stop doing what
they did last game, and that's pitched to him with
a runner on third and two outs.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
It was belie. I like the fact that we're already
seeing articles written because I feel like, you know, the
three of us and the Yah who's on this radio
station go on the air and say stuff about, you know,
we got to make a move. But when Adam Jude
starts talking like that, oh that's legitimate. Now, now there's
some teeth behind this idea. What a guy like the
Jude man gets behind it. But he's even talking about
(24:22):
here's you know, candidates for trade targets and things like that,
because I don't think they can afford to wait. I mean,
they went out and got Tavares and he's terrible. Obviously
there's a reason why he got licked by the Rangers, clearly,
but I don't think the M's can afford to wait.
They gotta make a move, and I think the Hori
Polanco train is coming to an end. One for four
again last night, he realize his last multi hit game
(24:42):
was five weeks ago. April twenty ninth was Horiy Polanco's
last multi hit game, and since then he's hitting a
buck forty with a four h five ohps. So I
don't know how much longer they can rely on this guy, Dick.
They got to make a move and replace him in
their line up.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I mean, you've got multiple spots that you're just you're
just one.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I mean, is is Cole Young gonna forever play good
defense and hit one fifty?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
I mean he'said sixty nine right now.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Williamson is the guy to look at.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Setting it back has done, Williamson going to continue to
do what he's done the last three weeks, which is
basically two hundred hitter. I mean, there's just so many
holes that have to be filled offensively that you're just
you're not going to get into a playoff situation. And
we talked about six through nine being I was worried
about six through nine. Well, hell now I'm worried about
I'm worried about two, five, six, seven, eight nine. I'm
(25:33):
not worried about JP. I'm not worried about Call and
I'm really not worried about Julio either.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
So there's six of the nine spots I'm worried about.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
There's an obvious target in Arizona's name is Aohaneo Suarez
and Corbyn Burns is out for the year. Diamondbacks are
falling apart. He's a free agent when the year's over.
Suarez is and I could talk yesterday about not wanting
to give up a big gun for a short term rental.
I'm not saying I would trade Harry Ford for Suarez.
That'd be ridiculous. But he's he's a free agent in
(26:01):
four months, and he knows how to hitting this ballpark.
He's hitting the ball well. It would be so Mariner, though, Dick,
for the Mariners to go out and get Auo Hanio
Suarez back, because they did the same stupid thing with
Mitch Hanniger when they should have kept Tioscar Hernandez. They
let him walk. They brought Handeger back. You know, they
let Suarez go because they tried to save some money.
And Jackson and I had to look it up. Remember
(26:23):
the guy they signed in free agency to take his
spot two years ago at third base. Remember his name, Arius,
yea Marius, the Luis Urius experiments. How that worked out?
Huh Meantime, au Hanio goes to Arizona and smacks the
piss out of the ball with the Diamondbacks, and now
we're talking about bringing him back. He never should have
let the guy walk in the first place, of course,
(26:44):
and now we're talking about bringing him back. So look,
it's irritating as hell, but it's an obvious move because
the guy knows how to hit. Here, We're gonna break
a little fun with audio next on ninety three to
three KJRFF.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
It's now time for something in Dick's one with a
Jimmy gawn Star Jimmy mister garoppolo.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Now let's have some fun with audio.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
All right, we're back on a U. What is this Friday?
Friday afternoon? Busy Friday? Right here on ninety three three
kJ r FM, Softy Dick Jackson with you till five o'clock.
Game two Stanley Cup Finals, Edmonton, Florida, coming up at
five pm from Canada. UH Sports USA Radio. But right now, though,
fun with audio slash. Hey did you hear that?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (27:25):
Dick.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Did you happen to hear that?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Dick? We start with the ESPN's first take, diving into
the political sphere again on Wednesday, when steven A Smith
was asked if he would rather be the head coach
of the Knicks or head of state. Chris mad dog
Russo also chiming in.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Would you rather be head coach of the Knicks or
head of state?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Well, head of state? What does that mean?
Speaker 6 (27:52):
You're talking about the presidency, right, the President of the.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
United States, the United States of America. Yes, and then
say that you don't just say head of state, you
say the presidency.
Speaker 12 (28:02):
Milo, Sorry, steven A.
Speaker 7 (28:04):
Would you rather be head coach of the next or
President of the United States?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Oh, Doggie, I would have to say the presidency myself.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
I say President seed the United States of America. But
how would you make our production?
Speaker 7 (28:17):
Meeting steven A at seven in the morning, and.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
As I'm making now, can you see stephen A trying
to negotiate the Ukraine Russia situation.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
I would have tried to negotiate it, but I know
that Russia's ultimate quests to recapture and I don't wish
that to happen therefore I would, I would, I would
help out you.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Great, we're not getting into politics.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Yeah, I feel like you just did. This whole thing
is turning into kind of a meme, isn't it. Absolutely.
I mean, it's either either do it or don't do it.
For God's sakes.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
In my opinion, first take has jumped the shark. It
has jumped the shark and become like just too wild
and crazy. I used to enjoy it, and now I
don't watch it nearly as much anymore because it's just
too bizarre.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Well, I just feel like he's gonna milk this presidency
thing as much as he can and then either announced
he's running and finished like eightieth or just say I'm
done in the last two and a half years of
all this nonsense talk will be for nothing, right, Yeah,
that's probably right when people vote for him. Would you
vote for Stephen A.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Smith for I don't know who's my my options?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Well, that's good.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Questions are usually freak terrible, So.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Oh god, Jackson, would you vote for Steven A for president?
Speaker 2 (29:33):
I'm also a dick. Show me what the other side is.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
For the last decade a dead guy is I mean,
not to get political but since we've already gone, there
is it JD.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Vans versus stephen A.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Smith, Stephen A Smith or Howard Schultz. You gotta pick one. Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that? What's that? Dick? Let's
go back to the NBA and Gobertrinas's YouTube show. This week,
the former NBA guard took yachts at the body of
Knick center Carl Anthony Towns and said, his body is
built like a girl's body after.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
A cat himself. It's him, it's his physical makeup, long legs,
short tousa, big ass feet.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
There's nothing he can do.
Speaker 7 (30:17):
He's built like a whole bitch gets built like a
girl girl his he's like a full w n B
A player.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Wow, I hadn't heard that one.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
I don't even know what to saynus I would say,
say he didn't walk across the line, he long jumped
across the line.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
And you play the first like five seconds of that
when he's describing his body, please hit it again and
then just and then just think in your mind's eye
what your wife would say if you sent her body after.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
On cat himself.
Speaker 7 (31:02):
It's him, it's his physical make up. Long legs, short tuls,
big ass feet.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
He can.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
And you know what we're you idiots? You do what
love that cut? Were you doing the show? Jackson?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
When Hugh just went off on Karl anthony towns last week,
it was Andrews, you can't stand Karl Anthony, so he
would agree with you. I don't know if he thinks
he's a.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Built like a woman, but he do.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Most women have long legs, short torsos, and big ass
fet idea.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
I've seen girls with long legs. I've seen girls with
short legs, long tostos.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
All right, did you happen to hear that what's that? Dick?
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Three? Or four? Pick one?
Speaker 7 (31:49):
Four?
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Timely?
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Al right? The women the Women's College World Series championship
between Texas and Texas Tech. Did you hear the the
picture for Texas Tech? What's her name? Canaday? Kennedy already
has another million dollars deal for next year to come
back take it?
Speaker 2 (32:05):
Yeah, more than you're gonna make.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
In the professional site, Brittany and Patrick Mahomes were at
the game last night. Red Raiders beat the Longhorns four
to three in Game two to force a decisive Game three. Tonight.
Here was the final call on ESPN yesterday with our Queen,
the Legend, the one and only best moments.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Here's the ok.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Kennedy to lovers in the biggest comment, preserves the lead
and ebies the championship series in one game a case.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Four to three Red Raiders.

The final, and we've got.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
A game three tomorrow night in Oklahoma City, forty one
yards Red Raiders four to three Final.

I love her now. It's like a Stockholm syndrome type thing.
I cannot get enough.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
And she appreciates the show as well as we found
out in the Osky.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Oh god, dude, I just did you see the Mahomes
last night going bananas at that game yesterday?
Speaker 9 (33:10):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:11):
I saw like an interview they were doing Brittany and
Patrick on on so.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I wonder, I wonder how much he contributes to the
Red Raider collective to get a player like her to
come back.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
I would imagine sizeably.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
You know, well, he's big in THEO women, doesn't doesn't
he own He and his wife own the women's soccer team, right?
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Would it shock you if Brittany and Patrick Mahomes gave
rus so you know what, why do you come back
to it again? Don't worry about next year, focus on
game three. Here's a million bucks for next time. Absolutely,
I can see them doing that. We're gonna break. Hugh
Miller gonna join next on ninety three to three kJ RFM.
