Ray has decided to put together an All-Star Softball team in an attempt  to win the alumni softball tournament back in Michigan. Soccer season has officially started with the 1st practice last night and Lunchbox breaks down the outlook for the season for the Box Boys after one practice. Plus Marco from the Bronx has been located and marked safe after missing for a few months after the Knicks won the NBA title. Also Ray is worried that Lunchbox's kids will only remember him as a guy who limped everywhere and won't remember him being able to actually run like a normal human.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
What up, guys. We are the Sore Losers.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
We're a spinoff show of The Bobby Bone Show, and
we have a convention in Nashville, Tennessee in twenty twenty
seven MLK Weekend January.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
It's brought to you by Freeling Chevroley.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Man. How are you doing? Man?

Speaker 2 (00:17):
M Do you ever ask yourself, like, really think how
you're doing? I do, because I was in the best
mood yesterday and we don't record a pod today. I've
been under the gun with some stuff because we're preparing
ahead for the holidays, Christmas. Yeah, and so I've been

(00:39):
under it a little bit. But I think I'm starting
to get in a better mood, like definitely not in
a good mood earlier, but definitely ramping up.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Good. Good you man, how were you? Thanks for asking man.
I'm gonna tell you, I was really exhausted last.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Night, now, Jay Ray, I mean good.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
I don't know why I was so tired. I did
go get a whoa pause? What'd you get a PRP injection?

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Oh? Whoah?

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Because I've been having that trouble in my abdomen where
I can't run. I can't I mean I can run
some days and then other days it's just like, oh man,
you can't move it, like it hurts so bad. And
then there's other days I'm sprinting around like nothing happened.
Okay you say, and yeah you saying, not whosaying thank you? Uh?
And I was like yeah, man. So I went and

(01:30):
got another injection yesterday, and so that was at four
o'clock and then you're battling traffic trying to get home,
and so that was a little bit annoying. But then
I hung out with the kids. I was just so tired.
But we got them to bed at like nine o'clock
and I was like, man, I've got to I've just
got to go to bed. I was done. I didn't
watch any TV, didn't watch any.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Sports, nothing, there was nothing on. Jump back to the PRP.
Do they draw your blood and take out the platelet
rich plasma.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Yes, usually they do do that. Yesterday though they gave
me some off the shelf stuff, So I'm assuming that
means I have other person's blood in me.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
I don't know, kid, you want a little bit of
my tiger blood.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
So usually they come in and they get blood out
and then they go away for like twenty minutes and
mix it.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yes, it's the same thing they do for my hair.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
And then they come back in and they draw x's
across my stomach and they take the needle in different
spots and it burns a little bit when it goes in,
Like it doesn't hurt, but I would say a little
bit of a burn. And then they're like, all right.
It takes all about five minutes once they inject it,
and then you get up and it's kind of tight
and sore a little bit. But yesterday they got off

(02:44):
the shelf stuff. I don't know what that means, like
if it's lab made or if it's they took it
out of another patient. But that's where we're at.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
The PRP in the body is absolutely amazing to me.
So the same PRP I put in my head nose
to grow hair, whereas your PRP knows to grow a nut.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
I don't even know if it's a nut necessarily, more
as it's trying to they think it's a hernia, so
they're trying to fix whatever a hernia is. It's like
the wall lining something I don't know. When I google it,
it tells me that I have a hole in my
stomach lining, but I don't know if that's true.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah, so there's all sorts of different stuff. Please don't
talk to me like I'm a medical professional. But Billy
does have some expertise in this area when he's healing
an injury, not that specifically, but he's on BPC one
fifty seven and he's on TB Tom Brady four hundred.
So I put my sister on BPC one fifty seven
for her leg and they said she'll be healed in
about a week.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
What happened to her legh chroniscus? Maybe, oh, some tendon
in there, they said it. They cleaned it out, but
they said it's going to regrow on its own. That's
how smart the body is. But TBC one's fifty seven
helps it go faster. Billy says it was an eight
week injury. He was healed in about eight minutes.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
So, and it's the same with my sister, so she
should be better. But it is amazing And it's no
spray this nose spray. BPC one fifty seven knows to
heal a leg and PRP knows to go into your.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Tell vis.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah, it's weird because this is my fourth injection, so
I've been doing it for ninety days, so hopefully we
are on the right track. I have no idea. We
will find out. It's a little sore today, a little
bit tight, but I'm confident in the doctor. The doctor
seems like he knows what he's talking about and is saying, hey,

(04:44):
we're gonna get you better, We're gonna get you on
the right track. And I believe him.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
What's the difference you should know between stem cells and PRP.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
They're not the same thing.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Maybe they are.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
I have no idea. He said yesterday the stem cells
was mixed with something to keep it right there.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Okay, so it was stem cells.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yeah, but it wasn't. Listen, man, I don't here's my problem.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
You don't ask any questions, damn it.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
No, no, hey, man, just put it anywhere any one
of my holes, correct, with no questions asked. I don't
really ask questions, you know why, because no matter what
he tells me, I'm just gonna be like, okay, and
then I'm gonna forget it. Five minutes later. You are
like my wife. You are my wife because she asked
me fifty questions when I get home, and I'm like,

(05:38):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Know because what you go through will help other people.
That's why Beazer asked questions when she went through cancer.
She's helped a laundry list of women because she learned.
You haven't even learned about your own injury. So if
another one of your buddies gets a nut injury, you're
just gonna say, yeah, you just inject tiger blood.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Good luck. Man.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
No, you need a couple details so that you're then
able to help a friend.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
You're one hundred percent right. I should ask more questions.
But every time I go to a doctor, a dentist, anything,
they like, have any questions? Like no, not really, Like
when I did my cleaning for my my teeth a
few weeks ago, and they're telling me all this stuff,
like you have any questions. I'm like now, and they're like,
do you want do you wanna see or something? I'm like,

(06:25):
what am I gonna ask you? I don't know anything
about my own teeth, Like, I don't know what you're
gonna do. So whatever you're saying you're gonna do, I'm
gonna assume that is the right answer.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Well, and there's no questions for those people, right.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
But the same thing with this doctor, I'm like, no,
matter what I ask him, I don't have a good
question for him. So you're gonna inject it? Yep, all right, Cool?
What other question could I ask? So? What exactly is
it gonna do inside of my body once it is
in there? Like?

Speaker 2 (06:53):
What?

Speaker 3 (06:54):
No? But then my wife does ask, so once she
injects you, what is it supposed to do? And I'm like,
I don't know. Oh, she goes, you didn't ask that. No,
I didn't ask. I literally did not ask. I just said, okay, cool.
I said, I don't care if you got to shoot
me in the face. If you think that's gonna help
me feel better, shoot me in the face. He goes, well,

(07:14):
I don't think that'll help. I think we'll do it
where it hurts. Okay, cool, shoot me there. That's all
I know.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
I would imagine in the next year of your life,
you're gonna run into some person, whether he be unhoused, whether.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
It be hey, kid, I got a pain in my chesty.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Whether it be toolbox, or it's gonna be one of
these people at mention or on the river.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
The cruise ship. Somebody you run.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Into is gonna ask you some information. Just have a
couple of things you can give up.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
Okay, next time I go see him in one month,
I will ask him all the questions I will. I
will come on here the day before and you can
give me a list of questions you would like me
to ask him, because I have no questions because I
don't know what to ask, because I don't know what's
going on with my body.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Because I'm just telling you that it's called the paper boy. No,
it's called telephone. That's how information was passed on from
generation to generation. It's not chat GPT. It's oh that Yes,
that man from the radio lunchbox, he went through the
same thing and he said PRP is different than stem cells,

(08:24):
and this is what it did to his nut.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
So it's something like that. Yeah, I wish I knew.
And it's not really to my I'm tony. It's more
to my like left of my belly button, right there
in the abdomen, that's really where the pain is now.
Sometimes like when I lift my leg then it sends
a sharp pain right there and then all the way
down to the left testy. But I mean we're on

(08:50):
the way back. Hopefully we're on the way back. It's
been fourteen months of absolute torture for me. It's been
a terrible fourteen months. The year of forty four was
a bad year for me, like mentally and physically, because
I couldn't do anything. I couldn't run. I couldn't I
couldn't run like I wanted to. I couldn't exercise. I
couldn't play as much with my kids because I couldn't

(09:11):
run around. Like we're trying to play baseball or soccer,
and it's like I can only barely run.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
So it sucked because you don't have to run the bases.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Sometimes you do. You play a game where they chase
you around the bases trying to tag you out as
the coach.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
See, I was trying to think age wise, we got
to start the show. But my dad, when he used
to play basketball with us, there wasn't a lot of running.
He was taller, we were smaller, and the kids don't
remember if Dad ran or not. Now that I think
about it, I mean, my dad might have been playing
a lot of stationary basketball.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
Like your dad's different than me. I rely on my quickness.
I'm not good. I gotta be moving or I'm not
tall enough just to stand like as far dad's your
dad is a twin tower. He can just stand and
hold the ball and you can't get it me. I'm
not that way. These kids can get the ball, so
I gotta be moving and juven like at forty four
of your kids seen you sprint? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Oh yeah, okay. My parents had us when they were twenty.
They got married at twenty five kids at thirty. I've
never seen my dad sprint as far back as I
can remember. It was always a lumbering jog. Never never
seen him dead out sprint.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Was your mom and dad dating when he was in
the minor leagues?

Speaker 2 (10:20):
No, she met him after he was done with baseball
and he was winning softball tournaments.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
She met him.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
He would go to the big city and he just
compete in these softball tournaments and win them.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
So that's what she remembers of him.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
That's how she met him.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
And they would say when we were born and grew up,
we'd have all his softballs on the wall of all
the tournaments he won.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
That's when she met him. He was like the softball king.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
That's legit. Did she meet him at a tournament or
like at a bar after.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
I want to say church, okay, But they were from
a small town church. But she definitely never I mean, yeah,
he probably had batties on the road.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
Got it. Okay, that's interesting because my parents they got
married at nineteen right out of high school. They started
dating their last semester of high school, carried it on over,
got married, had batter's box at twenty four, had my
sister at twenty five, and had me at twenty six.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
There's no way that you have any memory of your
dad's printing. Well, I know he just doesn't look like
a sprinter.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Right, But I know that at the end of every
soccer season we used to do parents versus kids a
whole game, okay, and so I don't know if he sprinted,
but he was out there playing for sure, and so
was my mom. And I remember after one season, I
think we were eleven, we played the game and Binnaker's mom,

(11:49):
Dustin Binneker, his mom was out there and she took
a ball straight to the finger broke. It had to
have surgery on her hand to fix her fingers.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Was she hot?

Speaker 3 (12:00):
I don't remember that, but I know that it hits
the ball hit straight there, boom injury surgery. But we
better start the show, yeah, because we got a lot
to talk about. I got a lot on my mind.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
We're gonna do it live. Welcome to Wednesday.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
We oh the one two three? Say what you got me? Now?

Speaker 2 (12:22):
I was gonna do it quick, and then I was
gonna do We're the one two three hump Day sore losers.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
I like the wrinkle, but there's no time to I
kind of liked the wrinkle. How you got me there?
I went for sore losers. You didn't give me a
heads up. Let's try to get you.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Just got an okie dok at one little second?

Speaker 3 (12:39):
Okay, we oh the one two three hump Days sore Losers?
What up? Everybody?

Speaker 1 (12:47):
I am lunchbox.

Speaker 3 (12:48):
I know the most about sports, so I'll give you
the sports facts, my sports opinions because I'm pretty much
a sports genius.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
What up, humpers. It's Sison. I'm from the North. I'm
an alpha male. I live on the North to Nashville's
baser wife, married kids two at Vanderbilt. They're still eggs.
They're defrosting. Justin should check on them. We got two acres,
live in the country. Justin's on gun Lake. No idea
why he's part of my intro, but he is part
of my fantasy team. We keep talking about it, but yeah,
he's on a dinghy. He's gonna go to the casino,

(13:16):
probably pick ten hitters that are supposed to get a hit.
Seven will get a hit, three won't, and you'll miss
the parlay and you'll lose another three hundred dollars for
the month.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Add that up for the whole year. Coach over to you, man.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
Last night was a huge night, man, And I know
you don't want to hear it, but you're about to
hear it for the next few months because it is official.
The youth soccer season started last night. You heard me correctly,
The season has begun. We signed up. We registered at
the beginning of summer. I didn't want to miss the registration.
I wanted to make sure my kids had a team.

(13:49):
They were ready to go. So the day it went up,
your boy got on there, signed them up, said Boom team,
Boom team, Boom team. And I signed my second grade
up for the second grade boys, my first grader up
for the first grade boys. And my boy that's in
pre k oh, he'll play with the kindergarteners. Don't worry
about it. Put him on a kindergarten team, and we

(14:11):
got the email saying who the coaches were. Baby Box
won the eight year old. I'm his coach. The other
two got their coaches assigned. So last night, five pm,
Baby Box three had his first soccer practice.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Whoa you say, baby Box three?

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah, he's four years old, so one is the oldest,
three is the youngest. Yeah, And I signed him up
for the kindergarten level age the five year olds, five
and six year olds, because he is four and last
year he was three and we played three, three and
four year old soccer and it was the biggest waste

(14:49):
of time of my life because he has two older brothers,
so he's been playing since he could walk. And the
kids that are three and four they've never touched a
soccer ball and it's absolutely miserable. So this is you know, what,
is he that good? No? But am I gonna make
him play with the kids that are his age so
he can be absolutely miserable? No, we sign him up

(15:10):
for he's a year older. He's playing with the kindergarten kids.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Do you think in fifteen years he will be ready
to represent the USA in the World Cup?

Speaker 3 (15:17):
One hundred percent he'll be putting that kit on, and
he'll be getting called up to the national team at
fifteen sixteen years old because he's that far advanced for
his age.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
I wonder where that one's gonna be, probably Mars. Do
you think the influx the kids playing soccer is because
of the World Cup? Some yes, So it's parents inspired
by World Cup, said little Jimmy, you're signing up.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Not even just the parents, but some of the kids.
Because so Baby Box three he had his practice and
then Baby Box had his practice at six pm, and
I am the coach and there's like five or six
kids from his school on all his little group of friends.
They're all on the same team. And one of the
kids parents is like, oh my gosh, he's been asking

(15:59):
me every day, Hey, when to a soccer start? When
to a soccer start? Because all of a sudden he
thinks he's a soccer star because he watched the World Cup.
And I said, oh, that's interesting. And then this kid
proceeded not to listen to the entire practice.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
It would have helped if the USA would have inspired
more kids by winning more so they inspired a little bit,
but knocked out in whatever the round of sixteen or something.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
We win it all. I guarantee you have schools signing up.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yes, but it's not just the USA that is inspiring people.
Do you know how many kids out there at that
soccer field have messy jerseys on rinaldo jerseys on a.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Ton I see, that's impressive. I didn't know who Messi
was until I was twenty, No, right, twenty one years old.
I didn't know who Messi was. South Beach told me, hey,
there's this player called Messi. He's the greatest player in
the world. I'd never seen a highlight of Messi until
I was twenty one and now three. Does your three

(17:00):
year old four year old.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Know who messes one hundred? That's wild. That's how much
the game's grown.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
One of the kids on the team last night showed
up in a messy jersey, and just kids walking by
the field will yell yeah, go messy jersey kid, Let's
go messy.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Wait, he has street kid or cred as a kid
just for wearing a jersey, just for wearing a jersey.
Back in the day, it was your where your Jordan's
get shot?

Speaker 3 (17:27):
Well I don't know about that, but anyway, so practice
starts and I gathered the team around him. All Right, boys,
we're gonna have some fun this season. We're gonna try
our best. We're gonna hustle, and we're gonna we're gonna
we're gonna just do a great job of listening. And
there's one kid that just keeps kicking people's soccer balls away.
I said, hey, Bud, do that again. You're gonna owned

(17:49):
two laps. Takes a ball in someone's ball, Boom, kicks
it away. Give me two laps.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Kid, kick the ball. I kick your ass.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
And I'm gonna tell you what. By the end this season,
that kid's gonna learn how to listen because he probably
did fifteen laps last night.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Are his parents there?

Speaker 3 (18:05):
His parents were not there. He carpooled with another kid.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Well, I didn't think he drove, but it makes me
wonder is that why he's acting up because the parents
aren't there.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
I don't know. I'm not sure. But one point I
told him not to do something and he immediately did it,
and I said, give me another lap. He goes, man,
I don't want to run another lap? Can I just
sit out?

Speaker 1 (18:30):
So you're just a babysitter?

Speaker 3 (18:31):
And I said, nope, I need a lap, and I said,
because we were scrimmaging at that point. I said, and
your team's gonna be a man down. Why you're you're run.
You let your team down, so they're gonna be playing
with one less player while you're doing that lap. That
was the fastest lap he ran because he was ready
to get back out there and help his team.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
And also, you parent and then you go deal with
all these other kids. Yeah, why why the self imposed
death sentence?

Speaker 3 (18:58):
Because you want you want to still that love of
soccer that I have into them.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
But there has to be other parents that love the game.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
Yeah, there has to be, I would assume, But none mean.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Is there any other parents on the sidelines, like kind
of itching to say something. Oh, I don't know if
that's how I would kick it.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
I don't know if they are itching to say something.
The women are just talking. So my wife and a
couple of other moms were just sitting over there chatting,
and there was two dads there and they have younger
kids that they were off to the side kicking the
soccer ball with. And in the middle of practice, I
hear my wife go get down, get down right now.
And I look over and my four year old baby

(19:36):
Box three has climbed on top of the porter potties.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
Oh we got a jumper.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Yeah. There was three porter potties next to each other
and he was up on top, going back and forth
across him.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
So he's gonna be the adventurous one.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
And so I was like, hey, honey, wait to Baite's engineer. Kids.
Don't worry about it. He's just over there on the
porter potty. And there's people in the porter potty because
somebody came out and she looks up. She goes, what
are you doing up there?

Speaker 2 (20:04):
That's actually impressive how he got up there, because you
think it's pretty well greased yep.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
But he made it up there, and he was just
up there on top of the porta.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Pot ray a lot of natural lubricant on those things.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
And then at the end of the practice, you know,
practice is over and all the kids are like kids
verse parents kids verse parents. So me and two other
dads took on like six kids. And I told you
I had my PRP shot yesterday, so I wasn't really
any help. I couldn't really move yesterday because it tightens
up after you get the shot. I'm just kind out
there going, eh, kind of half ass in it.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
Oh, that's what they're gonna remember. Dad's limping exactly. That's
why I got to get my body back. So that
was my day yesterday.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
Did it? Soccer is bat?

Speaker 1 (20:47):
Some of the other dads trying to flex a little bit.

Speaker 3 (20:50):
A couple of them they were doing some dribbling.

Speaker 1 (20:52):
They were dribble around the honeies.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
Yeah, and they were they were doing some fanciness and
they go dribble around your wife. No, she was off
the side. But one he had his uh sambas on.
You know those soccer shoes. Yeah, he had those on
and he was trying to rip some outside of the
foot shots. I'm like, well, did you play? Like what's
going on? Why aren't you out here helping coach? But

(21:16):
I didn't say that.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
I just thought it, Yeah, if you're at a soccer
game that I mean. I would be terrified for somebody
to kick the ball towards me because I don't know
how to kick it. We went to a bar and
they had it. You had to just hit it in
a huge old circle. Baser kicked it, kicked it ten
feet to the left, miss and you won like a
michelobaltra kid or something, Dude me, I drilled my foot

(21:39):
on the ground and missed the goal by another ten
feet right, baser far left. We can't kick as a family,
so I would be terrified as a parent for the
ball to come up to me because it's the one
sport I'm not good at.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Oh, by the way, Batter's Box has a message for you.
I'll tell you about it right after this.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
Well, he's already left us one.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
What everybody, It's a Batter's Box here with a special.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
And I'm gonna beat you at fantasy now.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
He said. I haven't heard the pod yet, but I
talked to Dad and he said that Ray was running
his mouth on the pod about five pitches he gonna
get a hit off me, and batters Box said, challenge
accept it. He's gonna drill me. No, he won't drill you.

(22:27):
But he did say last night his arm was very sore.
He threw about five hundred pitches, invp to his kids
little league team, a bucket of balls per kid on
the team. Just boom, boom. He said, my arm hurts
so bad. But challenge accepted.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
See and Justin was playing still with a baseball late
late thirties, he was still crazy. Yeah, and he was
in one of those It wasn't minor leagues, but it was.
They were the Brewers and they had jerseys. It was close.
All these guys used to play college base. This is
when we were at the pool, and we always talked
about me playing shortstop or something like that. But he

(23:05):
was still throwing a hard ball late into his thirties.
So whatever pepper your brother can put on it, I
would be impressed with because I played with Boomer when
he came and I was like, okay, not doing that again.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
I couldn't move my right arm the whole next day
because you're throwing so much.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
You don't realize how much that ball weighs, and if
you're throw a hundred of them.

Speaker 3 (23:23):
Especially if something you haven't done in a long time. Yeah,
you start doing it like you go out and play
catch with the football, and you do it for thirty minutes.
Your arm kind of gets sore the next day. It's
so ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
And the arm isn't supposed to go overhand. I mean
you'll notice again old people talk eventually that arm's not
going overhand. As grandfather. You ever remember Grandpa throwing overhand.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
Now he got through it side arm.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
From the day I met Grandpa, I was always like, Grandpa,
why do you throw like a woman. Well, I can't
throw it overhand anymore. He would always throw it underhand.
He couldn't go overhand anymore.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
That's your arm. Stop, it stops working.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
I don't want to hear that you can only go underhead.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
That is not good. I don't look forward to those days.
Luckily I didn't throw too many baseballs back in my day,
so my arms should be prime. I should be ready
to go.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Well, when the legs kick forever, so you're fine with kicking,
that is true.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
Hopefully they kick forever, they run forever, they move forever,
because I need them.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
A lot of these guys their legs lock up, like
I mean, I've heard them all on mcafeed Marino. He
can't run anymore. Oh yeah, so a lot of them
kids have never seen him run, never really seen him
be an athlete.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
Yeah, like Earl Campbell, he can barely walk. I mean
that was bad. Like when you if you saw him,
it was like ough those knees man, all those shots
to the knees, those helmets to the knees. They add
up over time.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
The golfing, if you're a golfing family, you'll always see
dad golfing. But baseball family, he probably not gonna have
too many memories of him overhand. The good thing is
with soccer they'll have memory is a dad kicking the ball.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
I'm not a lot of them because usually when you
become a dad, you quit. You're smart, and you're like, okay,
I have a kid, now I should quit. Well, then
you have idiots like me that are forty five, three
kids later, and I'm still out there trying to play well.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
I have no memories of my dad just crushing a ball.
His swing got pretty limp, so like in practice, we
would always play fwiffle ball, so I never really saw
him crush the ball then. But then once we did
hard pitch like batter of the box, we'd see him.
But I never saw him launch launch a ball. I

(25:34):
know his swing, but he lost a lot of that pop.
I know my dad used to play softball and we'd
go to the field, but I don't I don't have
any visual memories of him doing anything.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
And so said, not a paint bucket.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
No, it's not that. It's just I don't remember like
the games, and maybe he only filled in when my
uncle needed a substance. But I know we went to
the field some, but I don't remember him playing what
position he played anything like that. But once we were older,
we played on a co ed softball team together. It

(26:12):
was me, my dad, my sister, my uncle and Chess
Day and I mean mercer.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Or chess Day hit nine.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
Now he hit like fourth Lottie Alicia, the Yuma sisters.
I mean we were I mean we all played. It
was great.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
So you guys tried to run it back into adulthood.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
And yeah, we ran it back for like the girls
that were on the softball team together when they were younger,
and then my dad, me my uncle. I mean it
was a great time softball or soccer, no softball, okay, softball.
And let me tell you some of those people that
played that softball co ed during the week, they're very serious.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
Oh yeah, but I'm telling you, though, you gotta hope
that PRP shot works because right now as the memory
as you limping around that field and the other dad
doing tricks with his zufos.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Yeah, I mean we played one team and it was
co ed, and I think they were ninety percent women,
and they all kept hitting into the fence. They smoked
it in Austin.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Yeah, I mean makes sense. Probably U T grads.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
They were so freaking good. And the one dude on
their team left handed, and he came up one time,
and I mean he he could just put it wherever
he wanted it, poke it to left field, poke it
the right field. I mean, hit it to the fence
if he needed to. He wam pulls a line drive
right at first And my sister plays first base. She's

(27:34):
left handed, can dig anything out of the dirts. I'm
talking Gold Glove winner.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
What Pete crow Armstrong.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
I mean she is a phenomenal, phenomenal fielder, and I
mean I don't know how she got her glove up
in front of her head because it was going straight
for her forehead and she would be dead wow. But
she caught it. And the guy was like, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
That's the dangers of softball short field.

Speaker 3 (28:04):
Sort of like Moss. He was on our team, Chris Moss.
He hit a line drive back up the middle, hit
chest day right in his chest.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
No, hit the.

Speaker 3 (28:11):
Pitcher right in the ankle. Hit the ankle bounced all
the way to the dugout fence, and he called himself
out for hitting the pitcher. Saw the pitcher in the
next week, broke an ankle. Okay, it's bad.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
And then we had a guy that he played minor
league ball for the Birmingham Barons. Uh you know who
played for them, Jordan. Yes, they were on the same team.
And so he came out one day and first at bat,
ripped a line drive right over the third basmin's head.
The third baseman never moved and he fell. I'm sorry,

(28:47):
I'm sorry. He walked off the field, never came back.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
Was this college? No, this was after college? You were
playing softball after college? I think college was it for me?

Speaker 3 (28:58):
Now? We played over there at craig Man right there.
It was great. This's so fun.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
It's kind of random that we're talking about softball because
I just texted my sister. In my hometown, they have
alumni games, so every graduating nine year has a softball team. Yeah,
and I've never played in it. And the team, my
team two thousand and four is never won it. They
field a team and my brother plays on it. He
hits home runs.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
Wow. But they've never won it.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
And I texted Muffed and I go, hey, because her
year doesn't have a team, so she can go on
a different year. Nice And I go, hey me, Bert,
if we pick up you and this other dude, Bryce
said he'll play. I was like, you think we run
it back? She's like, let's do it next summer.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
But I said, I'm only coming home for that week
before fourth of July if we win it. I'm only
coming back to win the ship. And I go, hey,
if the addition of me and you, Bryce was a
little but hurt about something last year, I texted I
DM Bryce this morning. I said, hey, if us you
me Bryce and then Bert hitting home runs.

Speaker 3 (30:01):
I was like, who's your brother Robert? Yeah, he plays
every year. Well you didn't say his name, Robert.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
He plays every year than you. And I said, hey,
with us and the already nucleus, do you think we
got a chance. You've seen the team that wins it.
And she's like, I think we take the ship. That's
that's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
That's what I'm talking about. You need to start practicing.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I definitely need a pitching machine for sure.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
Yeah, to get your swing down because it's different that
waiting on the ball is very hard.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
That's what it's not slow fast, it's that where they
absolute floater and you go. And I was like, can
we pick up Boomer? And she said, probably not because
he's from a different he played in a different town. Oh,
he's not an alumni of our small city.

Speaker 3 (30:46):
Yeah. I remember we used to have an alumni soccer game,
like where it didn't matter. He would go and play
the current high school team. And I went a few
times right out of college and then I don't know
if they'll have it. I still have no I don't
know if they still do that or what. What a
great thing though, for the city, so fun. It's the
biggest thing in my town. And they just started doing it.

(31:09):
They've never done it before. I heard about it three
years ago and I was like, what. We didn't even
have a baseball team. Really, we went to another city baseball.
Your high school didn't have a baseball team. We didn't
have baseball, we didn't have softball. There was like an
iteration of it.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Like my senior year, we kind of created a team
and I think that was maybe the first time we
had a team.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
But we never had it.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
On What sport did your high school have?

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Random ones like wrestling, basketball, football?

Speaker 2 (31:38):
There was track, so were you guys? There was no football,
no full but there was no soccer. There was no baseball,
none of that. So it's kind of crazy. There's an
alumni game.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
What a crappy ass school that asked?

Speaker 1 (31:50):
That's what? Oh, it's horrible.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
But what I'm saying is the fact that our family
all has ball players, me, my brother, and my sister
he had. Our school didn't even have baseball. So I'm like,
how were some of these alumni classes winning if they
didn't ever have high school baseball?

Speaker 1 (32:05):
Dude, we go back and we win like twenty to
nothing every game.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
That's our time to flex. Hey, it's your time to shine.
Foor home, me turns fifty.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
But if this is not anything I had planned to
talk about, but this is phenomenal, We'll take a break.
We'll be right back. That's so interesting, man, I never
realized that a school didn't have those sports.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Yeah, and I mean lacrosse didn't have that.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
Okay, well, I understand that lacrosse was not in our
school either, but.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Then we've randomly had swimming. Huh, that's a sport that
most people don't have.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
We did. We had a pool.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Wow, I don't think we had swimming. If we did,
they had to go off campus because I don't know
anything about it. I don't know anybody that swam. I
know we had golf. We got lacrosse my junior year,
but you had to play with other schools, like you said,
and then we had all the regular sports.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
I was trying to see if I had a picture
of the high school team or but whatever my graduating class.
I mean, there's some big old boys. When I went there,
they're like one sixty about about three hundred. Now we
got some big old boys.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
On the team. Huh man, that's wild.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
But but I said, hey, if word gets out, then
I'm coming back and we're pulling you on our team.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
We gotta win it. If we start that ground spell,
we actually gotta win it.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
Yeah, that's very important.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
But you know what's gonna happen is I'm gonna plan
all this and we're gonna take a different vacation and
I'm gonna absolutely murder somebody.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
Oh you're gonna have a absolutely plan perfectly, but you're
not gonna make it.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Because I was also getting kind of jealous. Dad's texting
me because they would have games at ten pm at night.
And my dad texted me and he goes, watch your
brother play at eleven pm last night, walk off, three
run homer, the team won. I'm oh, nice, Dad, nice,
You're you're glad you're going to Rob's games. You guys
couldn't even turn on ESPN Plus and watch my tournament.
I was playing back basketball.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
They didn't watch.

Speaker 1 (34:02):
I don't know they didn't have that channel. But but yeah,
the games are like all day long. I mean there's
like thirty years of classes. They got like classes from
the night.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
Is it a tournament like single elimination, No.

Speaker 2 (34:14):
They're double. I mean it's a huge asa dude, double
elimination that would take six months. It was so big.
Chase Matthew played it. They have a big concert every year.
What to the country as he went there and played
in my hometown.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
He went to your hometown to play the alumni softball.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Tournament music he didn't play in the game.

Speaker 3 (34:32):
No crap, because he's not an alumni from there, idiot,
And people camp out aaronber Tookey's there. People live there
for a whole week and you have this huge tournament,
and I'm like.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
We never had high school baseball. Where did this come from.
It's not like we're like this huge powerhouse football.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
Hey, every summer we're gonna do a flag game or
what is it called? Uh no flag football? Yeah, every
summer we're gonna do it.

Speaker 3 (35:00):
Now like worded to add.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Nowhere they hatch alumni baseball and softball.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
That's so weird.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
But Muffy's injured. So I got her on the TV
one fifty seven. She hurt herself just working age man,
She's up and down, she cleans houses, She's all over
the place every day, ankles, knees, toes, hips, everything, And
so she got planner fast. Now she's only a year
and a half younger than us. She's like thirty eight
thirty nine. Okay, wow, I didn't know we were ever

(35:29):
that close in age growing up. It always seemed like
we were ten years older. But but yeah, so say, hey,
we're gonna pull you. We need you to get healed.
We got her on the TV one fifty seven healing
her meniscus.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Couldn't you heal my dad because he is exhausted every
day because him and Batter's Box, they're flipping a house
right now, they're hanging sighting every day.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
We need to get your dad on NAD, NAD plus
for sure. What is that what our body stops producing
once we get older. It gil give him more energy.
It's simple, over the counter. Interesting, he needs NAD, he
needs B twelve every day. He needs to be doing vitamins.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
Yeah, because they're heading to this house in the heat
and they're hanging siding right now. They're out there just.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
Wise box batter's box doing to trying to turn an
extra buck Hey, extra cash, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (36:11):
Like, you see an opportunity, you.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
Go for it. So they got the house cheap.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Got the house cheap. They redid the inside, painted, did
some tile in the bathroom, not sure what else, don't
know if they knocked out any walls, redid the floors,
They tore out some shed in the back that was
like falling down. And now they're doing the sighting and

(36:35):
maybe new windows. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
I thought your dad wasn't doing that anymore.

Speaker 3 (36:39):
Well, they found a deal and so he couldn't resist.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
He had to dust off his old TOOLBA.

Speaker 3 (36:44):
He had to go in the garage and you know,
get the blow.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
Hey, he goes, he gets the paint bucket out, He's
all crying and everything.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
Puts on his paint but pants.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
He had to, you know, get his tool belt, you
know what I mean, like where the hammer hangs and
the nails and that little pocket.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
Honey, can you pack my lunch again like he used to.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
Like fighting through the cobwebs. Oh gosh, gotta get out
of here, you know, just finding all the tools. And
they did it. They're they're they're doing it. They're working hard.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
Man, first time hammering and nail in twenty years.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
He's like, oh, I got my though, I got my though.
This fing siding. Why am not agree to do this?

Speaker 1 (37:24):
Hey, Batter's box, get your dumbs in here. I need
your help with this siding.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
And what's funny is he used to do it with
his brother, uncle Ken, and so batter's box will be
another room and my dad he'll hear Ken Ken? Can
you come help? Uh, Batter's box?

Speaker 1 (37:41):
Can you?

Speaker 3 (37:41):
He calls him Ken all day long, Just.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
Call him dumbhouse. Your brother doesn't work during the day.

Speaker 3 (37:48):
He does, I'm saying, after work he goes and works
on the house. He's really trying to turn some money.
He's like, why not make an extra buck for what?
Can you always use extra money? I mean?

Speaker 1 (37:59):
And then he goes home to the kids every day.

Speaker 3 (38:01):
Yeah sounds like a night. But he's exhausted. I talk.
I mean, I'm telling you. I asked him last night.
I said, man, how are you feeling about fantasy gues?
I'm so exhausted. I haven't even thought about it. Good,
haven't even thought about it. Just make sure we get
his two hundred bucks. And we got the two hundred dollars.
But he's just like, I can't. I'm so, I'm I'm done,
I'm tired. I'm like, oh, you want to talk fancy?
Not tonight? Not okay? All right.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
There was some league. I just saw some video online.
It was making the rounds and people were saying that
so Gibbs went number one. Number two was like Saint
aman Braun, and number three was like Chase Brown is
he with the Bengals. The people were saying, man, get
me in that league, Get me in that league. If
sant aman Ron was too.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
Well, that's the great part about our league is you've
never played with these people, so you have no idea
how they're gonna draft.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
Well, and the scoring differs with PPR and stuff.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Yes, but I also am just saying like people have
their own mindset on how to build a team. Like
when you play in the league with the same people
over and over again, you got to understand, Okay, they
like these type of players. They like these type players.
When you have forty four strangers every single year, you
have no idea how they like to play fantasy football.

(39:13):
And that's what makes our league, I think, so freaking exciting.

Speaker 2 (39:17):
Tell me this on our league website. Can people go
back and look at the previous drafts?

Speaker 3 (39:22):
I have no idea.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
Okay, I know I can. You can click around. It's
interesting to look back at a previous draft. Oh, people
miss you overdraft people you too time, and you'll a
guy will go like second round and you'll be like,
oh my gosh, he scored like no points all year.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Yeah, Like if you drafted Justin Jefferson last year, you.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Didn't do anything.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
Oh, oh terrible, and I had Holmes terrible, terrible. And
I will set up the league tonight and so hopefully
in the next twenty four to forty eight hours you'll
get an email from my fantasy league if you got
drawn into the league. That way, you can go look
at the website, figure it out, set up your team
all that. I was just waiting for everybody to pay.

(40:02):
Now that we have that, I can do this. And
I've been busy. You know, soccer practice started last night.
I was getting PRP injections. You gotta understand, and I'm
gonna read you one email. Yo, what's the word fellas.
It's your boy, Marco from the Bronx. First off, let's
get one thing straight. I didn't ghost the show, all right.
I've just been mad, busy, celebrating my knicks, absolutely walking

(40:25):
all over the spurs. Let's go nixt being bong. Secondly,
I gotta give it up to you guys. Congrats. I'm
being the only podcast in human history to talk about
a dead dog on a regular basis. Dead ass YouTube
make me laugh so hard I look like a lunatic
on the subway and lunch. You're one hundred percent right.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
My guy.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
F the Dodgers go Yankees all day, every day. Peace
out Marco and the Bronx.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
If you want an update on the dead dog. Yeah,
so the mowers, guys, it's dirt cheap here in Tennessee.
You need to live here to hire mowers. Two acres
is borderline robbery, highway robbery, if you will, country dirt
road robbery. So we get them to come and they mow, well,
the last couple of times they haven't been really mowing
around the dog. They leave the grass all along. They

(41:14):
wanted to like be the shrine.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
Oh that's good. Yeah. In the when they go to
the graveyard, they kind of leave certain patches long out
of respect because they don't want to run over the body.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
So then maybe it was a new mower, or maybe
it's the same guy that was like, Okay, I like
how we built the grass up around it, but also
I want to truly pay homage to this dog. Do
this last guy win in there with hedge tremmors each
individual rock he cut between in the normal grasses. We
like to have it high. We got it like let's
say three inches. Dude, this guy cut it down to

(41:47):
the dirt.

Speaker 3 (41:48):
That's not good.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
I mean, but from the house you can see the
dead dog now.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
Bezers like I look out doing the making my coffee
and I can see the dog's grave now. Oh, so
I need to tell the guy, hey love a me
ego love what you did, the respect to the dog.
But next time we don't need to be cut it
to the dirt. You can loved it though, Love the

(42:13):
work with the shears, great effort.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
And then my poll.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
Where I do my chipping in the back. I got
my flag pole. He cut that to the dirt too.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
How are we gonna practice out of the rough?

Speaker 1 (42:24):
Well, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
If I hit it within a foot of the hole,
it bounces ten feet in the air because it's like
cement and the dirt. So I'm like, hey, love the
respect out of the golf course. That can be high grass.
The dog, dead dog, No worries, it's not a person.
It can be high grass. Dude, he went in there.
They must have extra trimmed on that thing.

Speaker 3 (42:43):
And we haven't had rain, guys. We start weren't needing
some rain. We are definitely needing some rain. Like we
were getting rain all of June and July. We have
not had any rain in August. It's starting to look
bad out there.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
We'll have rain tomorrow and possibly the next day.

Speaker 3 (42:57):
Oh really, yeah, that's a good sign. All right, Well, guys,
have a great Wednesday. Sore loosers, Dot com get your
tickets to the convention. Add ons are up still trying
to figure out Saturday night. I don't know what's going
on with that, but we appreciate it. We are the
sore losers at gmail dot com. If you want to
email us anything else.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
Just I guess a one final touch on the dead dog.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
Yeah, the me and Baser will go over there in
the golf cart and pour out a drink so on
top of the now that we can see with the
grass removed, on top of the grave, there's a bunch
of sticky substance. All the times we've poured the beer,
the Seltzers and the ultras on it. And then maybe
birds also see that from the sky the shimmer if

(43:39):
you will, so then they on it. So the top
of the grave, that Marco, if you can imagine it,
it's bird and Seltzer juice covering templeton.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
Rest in peace, temper. And I'm also worried about Justin Man,
like is he like the Dodgers owner where he's in
debt because he takes out all these loans because I
go to Vinmo and he is paying people on Venmo
every day like he paid Stephanie Cole some money yesterday.
It's like he is come due. He paid your mom. Oh,

(44:15):
that's to me. It's every I don't know if he
knows how to do private transactions, but he always is
paying people on Venmo, like, hey, I borrowed fifty dollars
last week. Here's the payment with interest. And it's like
the Dodgers own it where he owes billions of dollars
and he has to sell all these assets. So it
turns out he's been paying all these contracts, these players
on the Dodgers, and they're actually bankrupt. Unbelievable, unbelievable. He's

(44:40):
selling the Lakers, the Dodgers. He's trying to sell Chelsea, Like,
dude is so bankrupt, he's going to prison. Oh my gosh.
The Dodgers have been operating on an absolute fraud system
and it's about to get ugly. Ugly.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
I said, they ain't winning it ugly.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
We do have proof of life from justin Oh what
he says text He goes, you have no sleeper pick
in mind for fantasy football, and that scares me. Rus
bods sleep on these nuts.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
Alright, you guys are idiots. You guys are absolute idiots.
