the eyes obviously scouting, scouting for talent in the coaching ranks.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Hot.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
But what I saw I did not like. We ain't done.

Speaker 4 (00:46):
Yes, it's time for the past over a year, completely
uncensored and unacting filtered except for that part.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
The after show starts now.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Emily and I almost saw each other this weekend. Whoa right,
it would have been wild. I mean we hung out
on Saturday night, you guys. Oh yeah, that was only
a couple hours before. Yeah, oh yeah, I forgot about that.
That's true. But no, what happened. What happened was I

(01:25):
went to the baseball field because it was Jersey pickup day,
and so I had to be there at a certain time,
and you have to pick up the jerseys.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
That's not like a tea mom thing.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
I guess it could be. But there was also some
manager stuff that I had to do as well, and
so we all had we were all required to be there. Well,
there was a practice going on at the time. And
I get to the field and I think I see
something that doesn't make a lot of sense. I see

(01:54):
Reid out on the baseball field. Now Reid has aged
out reads fifteen. This is a fourteen U team, And
I'm really confused that what's what I'm seeing here and
what I'm what Nothing about it is making sense. Give
lessons now, Emily doctors now that that would have made
that would have made more sense. Ye would have made

(02:16):
more sense younger kids though. So yeah, I get a
you know, I I'm you know, it's early. I'm like
rubbing my eyes. This can't be. I walk up to
the fence and go Read and he goes, oh, hey,
what's up Eddie, And what's up? Read? What are you doing?

(02:38):
And he goes, I'm helping out coach Tom here, Oh coach,
excuse me. I beg your pardon, and I'm now I'm
really lost. And so I texted Emily. I mean, like,
what the fuck is going on? Why is read here?
He's helping? Question Mark Like what.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Yeah, I have so many same, so many questions.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Yes, Emily's not here, no where to be found. She
was at Aldi.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Well I was at Col's Mountain. First.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Sorry, the text I got was I'm at a fu
Glad to clear that up. You just wanted to make it,
see because I'm a hiker.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Now what I did while that practice was happening and
one was going to Cal's Mountain?

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Thank you? Not really important, but okay, thanks for clearing
that up. What what? What was I seeing here?

Speaker 3 (03:26):
This?

Speaker 1 (03:26):
It made no sense.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
So this coach and I are friends because replayed on
his team when he was in this league last year
two years ago.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
However long it was.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Too and we became like friends. I was his team.
Mom like, oh, we end up meeting in the village
and go grab a drink with his wife.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
And how good I've seen replay? No offense. It doesn't
seem like that good of a coach.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
The coach.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
I mean it was a joke.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Yeah, no, So we up a close relationship with him,
and the coach really likes Reid. He sees Reid running
around the village and so anyway they got the relationship.
So coach was checking in with me to see how
Reid was doing the other day last week and he said,
is he getting ready to try out for high school
ball for the baseball team. Well, liked, tried out for

(04:20):
winter ball, didn't make it. He just doesn't put enough
effort into it, is.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
What the problem?

Speaker 3 (04:24):
You know what I mean, doesn't put a lot of
effort into it. But he still really like, would like
to play, but it's just his levels not up. So
I told coach that Reid wasn't going to try out,
and he said, oh, no, he can't have that. He
needs to get on that field.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
You know what what we do as coaches, what you
do never stop coach never U.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Never stopped.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah, okay, ABC is my modern.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Will always be coaching.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
There you go.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
That's why I said never stop coach that ABC also
has always be closing to me.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
No, so he.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
Says he he can't be doing that. He goes, hey,
you have come down here Saturday morning, help me out
with your coach.

Speaker 5 (05:04):
Uh is also a lot like your Robert impression.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
That's older. This is your voice, smoking smoker like me
and this coach are very tight you were doing it doesn't.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Sound anything like a right okay, So he says.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Hundred, he asked you to have read come out and
help him me with practice.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
And I didn't really know what that meant, but I wasn't.
He's not a man with He's a text a lot
of different.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
He's not the greatest text or.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
All right, So I just said, yeah, I said, let
me check with Read and I'll go back to you.
So we got home from school and I asked him,
I said, he you want to go to the field
and help coach coach with practice And he said okay, sure,
and so that's where we left it. I told him
he'd be there. The practice was at eight o'clock.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
That was brutal, alarm, perfect for Cow's Mountain hik Yeah,
since you're a hiker, you're probably up at dawn. Anyway,
take you to the whole hike, Oh, the whole.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
I didn't take it up to the very top. I
went almost. I was almost there and then I couldn't breathe,
So to turn around.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Hiking Emily.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Face, I'm not doing that. So that's so that's the deal.
That's why he was there.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Well, okay, none of this made sense to me, Edie,
you were thrown off. I get there and I'm looking
and I am seeing Reid get involved a little bit
in the helping side. Read. In case people don't know this,
Emily will attest to this. Reed does like acting like
an expert and things, and he does kind of like

(06:58):
Boston people around. Yes, so when this coach would bark
in order, Reid would bark it back at them too.
Really yeah, So he'd say, go and pick up all
the balls, and we would yell out, hey, pick up
the balls. And I went, okay, yeah, I can see that,
you know. And I was like, I think they got
it from the initial but Read emphasized, you're the assistant coach.

(07:21):
That's what you do.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
There was another assistant coach there.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
There was another adult, the man who's his actual assistant coach,
Read was bossing him around. I'm the next guy up. Okay,
I don't even think you are. Wow. But what really
bothered me is what I saw Read.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
Wearing attire issues.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
Yes, so I would assume if you're if you're going
to be an assistant coach, this is this is just
my assumption. If you're a kid want to help out
I would have a hat, probably Oakley's's everybody wears.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Now, maybe you know.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Somewhat of a baseball practice the form attire. I don't
know if so.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Here's the thing, right, Yes, you're helping out with the
coaching and the kids. But because the coach wanted him
to come, he wanted him to take some reps too,
so that you should be dressed up to play. So
you need to come as a player and ready to play.
And Reid was not. Reid came out first of all,

(08:21):
no hat, no hat. You show up to my field
without a baseball hat. You're going home?

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Cap on.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
You're going home cap on. It's part of the uniform.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
It's gonna have a cap on.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Okay, how do you show up at baseball without a hat.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
It's weird to show up without a hat to baseball.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
You're going Hey, you you're going home. I go to
and i't sit down. Can pick up protection? Important?

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Well, I mean you got to wear.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
You're not gonna wear a helmet on the football field.
Go ahead, run out there. I don't want to. I
don't want to run out there. Okay, you're gonna have
a hat? No hat?

Speaker 2 (08:56):
That's crazy.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Then he had on shorts.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
How do you slide?

Speaker 4 (09:00):
Now?

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Listen. If you're just coaching shorts, fine, okay, that's me.
I'm rocketing, obviously, I'm rocking. Yeah, that looks great, you know,
and and it preferably tight shorts.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
If you're a coach, yeah, you gotta be yelling at
the kids in tight shorts the time I'm wearing shorts. Bars.
Take a poll, Wow, I gotta have those tight shorts.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Shorts is if I'm coaching or playing softball?

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Yeah, kid shows up in shorts, you're not ready to play?

Speaker 2 (09:30):
No hot.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
What if we're practicing sliding today, I don't know. What
are you doing in shorts? Getting out of your mind? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Get my skin rift of us? What I'm doing?

Speaker 1 (09:38):
You come in baseball play.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
That's two big strikes.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Shoes, shoes, kids wearing, kids wearing sneakst and the sneakers
were a nightmare.

Speaker 5 (09:49):
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Well, he was out, you know, like shagging balls or
doing something sliding everywhere he's in the outfield at eight
a m. There's a little wet. Yeah, so then he
comes on the infield where it's dirt. Now, these these
shoes are are full of mud. I mean he's he's in.
He looks like a muddy mess. Poor sneakers.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
They play sneakers, No kind of, they were like expensive.
They're like like white nikes, white.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Nikes, white shoes.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
I'm watching this. I know I'm watching this all go down.
This is a nightmare. And then so then coach says,
all right, now we're going to do this drill. He's like,
all right, read, you're gonna hit read. Wait what you go?
Walks over to the kids and go, hey, can I
borrow some batting gloves?

Speaker 2 (10:35):
He didn't break batty gloves.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
I don't know what the hell's going on in his bag,
but I don't know if they maybe weren't in there.
I've always been using them on his bike, so that's why.
But he did bring his baseball bags using using.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
His stone as it's cool. Gripped gloves break dancing.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
They are very similar to like dirt bike gloves.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
No, I mean, I haven't a huge difference. So now
I'm just now I'm like, what the fuck this is?
This kid would have been sent home immediately. He's walking
the couch mountain. Sorry kid, you're out of here.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
I'm so uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
So I immediately text Emily, what the fuck is going on
at the field right now? With me? I don't understand
any of this. And then Emily Rate's back. He's a coach.
What are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (11:28):
He's a coach, was ready to be a coach.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
I guess I didn't know what to expect.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
This was so I thought, I really thought.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
Coach was just wanting him there to help, like as
a coach.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
So I but why if he needs the reps and
things that that's why he was going, right.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
It wasn't said in a text like that. It was
said in a text have read come help out?

Speaker 1 (11:48):
That was what it was, because he needed the work
in baseball? Right? Yeah? Yes, so or busy?

Speaker 3 (11:54):
I don't know, okay, I mean next time not?

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Do you know what they learned what not to do? Okays?
Was this was embarrassing for me? I was associated Read
is almost like associated with me. I don't think the
kids know that. Oh they all do. What was coach
Read's review? Did he nail it? Coach of the year

(12:20):
going back next week?

Speaker 3 (12:22):
He just told me that he had a lot of
funky and he wants to go back again. And then
I suggested him wear something different and he said.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
No, he said no.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
He says he still want to.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
I can tell you I had a little talk with
the coach.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Coach to coach talk.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
Coach was not too happy either. Then he was not dressed.
This is the wildest thing.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
I'm not happy about it.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
