Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI Am six and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We got a
fire brewing again. The line fire is cranked up again.
That fire is off to the races again. Because it's
a loser. It's a loser, doesn't go out. It just
keeps firing up again. Study yesterday I noticed some cloud

(00:23):
some smoke in the sky, like, here we go again,
here we go. And then, man, oh man, we've got
stabbings and one in seem Valley, another one in the city.
Have the MTA hijacker? You have the MTA out in Palmdale,
another incident with the MTA. Man, this city is falling apart.
The city is falling apart. And I don't blame them.

(00:48):
I don't blame them, man. I think everybody is so
on edge right now. Everybody's angry as hell. Everybody doesn't
know what you know, what the election is gonna do.
And you got a lot of in it. And people
are broke. People don't have any money. In California, rent's
too damn high. Plus we pay for everything, you know.

(01:09):
I was thinking about this, our our parents. We talked
about this last week. Our parents didn't have to pay
for a lot of crap we have to pay for.
Our parents didn't have to pay for a cell phone bill.
You know what was that two hundred bucks a month.
Didn't have to pay for cable TV. It was free.
Later on it was you know, Z channel and on channel,
but mostly it's free. We'd have to pay for trash

(01:31):
pickup when you paid your taxes. That was included. You
didn't have to pay for almost anything. You had to
pay for water and electricity, but that's about it, and schools,
and but you didn't have to pay for you know,
the high registration you have to pay, the high taxes.
You didn't have to pay all these you know, streaming fees.
Everybody's got streaming. Everybody's got you know, Netflix or Hulu

(01:53):
or or I don't know, Paramount plus or Disney Plus.
And we're paying you know, it's it's they're nickel and
dime everybody.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
To death to death.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
And you know, back then, you didn't have to pay
for any of that stuff. That's why our parents could
put money aside. I can't put anything aside every basically
everything's too expensive.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
And then we got.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
The the the MTA, the hijackers charged. This is the
guy who thought it'd be interesting to hijack a bus.
Dumb idea, because they're gonna get you. Well, probably about
one hundred percent of the time. The guy, the bus
driver is protected that little that little booth, that a
little photo booth that he has rolling and and he's protected,

(02:36):
but the but the passengers are not. So I'm glad
they protect the bus driver but not the passengers. Kind
of strange, kind of strange. The passengers, the one paying
to get on the bus and they're not being protected. Man,
the MTA has got to get it together, got to
get it together. Because I talked to a buddy of
mine who a track guy friend of mine, and he

(03:00):
isn't had a car in four years. He got photoed
out of a couple of cars, all right. He could
have bought himself a Mercedes or a nice high end
Porch nine to eleven at one point, but photo came
back and his horse came in second, So bus time
for him. And he said he would not take the

(03:21):
bus now for anything. This guy has been on the
bus for four years, he said, now he'll walk or
take his bike. He's not getting on the bus or
any thing with the MTA. Man, I used to love
the MTA. He should jump out it with my daughter,
who was about four or five at the time, and
we get on to North Holly. We live very close
to the to the Orange Line where the Orange Line

(03:42):
meets the Red Line, and we'd get on that MTA
on that train and go all the way down, watch
a King's game, and then take the train back. I
lived literally across the street from that station where the
Red Line meets the Orange Line in North Hollywood. I
lived across the street, so I'd use it all the time.
And now now getting on an MTA on a bus

(04:04):
or or one of these you know, light rails with
your four year old daughter.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
I don't know if that's the way to go now.
But let's find out what happened to this guy. You know,
there's a guy working at Dodger Stadium trying to get by.
Seemed like one of the nicest guys in the world.
From all his family members, this guy was great and
now he's not with us anymore.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
Well, that suspect was actually supposed to be a rain
Today he is in jail. But according to the DA,
the deputies were unable to bring him to courting. What
that means is sometimes he simply refuses to leave his
jail cell.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
Now police do say that.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Fifty one year old Lamont Campbell hijack the metro bus
back on Wednesday morning around nine am.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
Wait minute, you can refuse to leave your jail cell.
Is that right? You can just say, oh, I'm not
in the mood today.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Really, what happened to the old school where they get
a couple guys in there and move you around?

Speaker 2 (04:54):
It was much strap to a chair.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
I remember one of the greatest lines ever.

Speaker 4 (05:00):
I was.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
I was going to Santannita.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
They were running it at Lo Sal, but we didn't
want to drive all the way down there, so went
to Santannita.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
To bed it.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
And the guy says, five dollars for parking. I said,
they're not running here, and so I just drove by him.
I said, was a buddy of mine again named Frankie Renzuoli,
And we just drove buy him and didn't pay the
five dollars for parking. And he followed us in a
golf cart and we were like serpentiny trying to get
rid of him.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Couldn't get rid of this guy.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Couldn't shake him, and he finally caught up with us
and he goes, guys, you got me five dollars for parking.
We're on calling the cops. And Frankie said, look, we're
up both. We're both the biggest losers in the world.
We're gonna go in there and probably lose two or
three hundred bucks each. When is it not worth you
pursuing this five dollars for the parking And he goes,
give me five bucks.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
I'm gonna call the cops right now.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Frankie goes, well, what if I go on the trunk
and I and get a tire iron then move you
around a little bit.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
I love that.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
I love that. It's the greatest expression in the world.
How about if I move you around with a tire
and the guy split? The guy split man, he knew
he that was his red line, that was a line
to stand and he said, this guy means business.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
I'm out of here.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
It was carrying a driver and several passengers.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
All right, this is the MTA, the guy that shot
this poor gentleman who's working at Dodger Stadium, just trying
to get by. And everybody says the same thing. He
would have given you his last dollar. He didn't need
to be shot. He didn't need to be killed.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
The standout lasted for hours.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
The bus driver and another passenger, Vera, however, was allegedly
punishment possible. Today, District Attorney George Gascone said there are
six victims in this case and announced numerous charges against Campbell.

Speaker 6 (06:39):
There are total twelve counts in this case. One kind
of murder, one kind of car jacking, one kind of
kidnapping during a car jacking, one kind of assault with
a semi automatic handgun, one kind of attentive murder, one
kind of rubber ow.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
This election is working great for guests, going, man, he's
piling on now. Even the you know the Conservatives are
like easy buddy, easy wow man, the wow going crazy here. Well,
I got an election coming up, so, George gascon it's
unfortunate for this chap on the bus that he did
it a month before the election, because he's going to

(07:13):
get the book thrown at it.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
Listen to these charges.

Speaker 6 (07:15):
One kind of car jacking r one kind of kidnapping
during a carjacking, one kind of assault with a semi
automatic handgun, one kind of attentive murder, one kind of robbery,
four counts of kidnapping, one kind of felony evading with
reckless disregard, one kind of a felon im possession of
a firearm, and one kind of a personal use of
a handgun enhancement.

Speaker 7 (07:36):
Our buses are a community space and a community asset.
Holding the person who committed this heinous crime accountable for
his accountable for his actions is an important step and
helping to dissuade further crime on our system.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
And the judge in this case announced he is taking
out of his jail cell and makes an appearance in
court tomorrow. If convicted of all these charges, which is
the suspect faces up to ninety years in prison. Wow
Perfording life from downtown Los Angeles. I'm Colonel Scron to
ABC seven AhR Bad Day in.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
LA Bad Day in Los Angeles.

Speaker 8 (08:10):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Pete Rose has passed away. Pete Rose.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
I thought Pete Rose would would be in his late sixties,
early seventies, eighty three eighty three years old.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Man oh Man so at four point thirty.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
The Duke of Sports is coming on, we'll have a
look back on Pete Rose's life.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Pete Rose. Man, oh man, what a life that guy had.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
Roland you know the batting championship, I think the at
one time the most hits in baseball and if he
still owns that record or not, and then tossed out
of baseball for gambling. Remember Jim Healy a Crozier. You
remember Jim Healy, Right, remember that song you stuff Gamblin Rose.

(08:58):
Gamblin Roll has a great song. Yeah it was ramblin
but he called it gambling roads, gambling rows. That's amazing
that everyone the first thing they think about this guy,
it is huge, awesome baseball career. The first thing everybody
mentions is his gambling.

Speaker 9 (09:15):
Pete Rose still has the most hits exactly baseball history. Woo,
how many forty two fifty six? Wow, that is unbelievable. Yeah,
forty two fifty six. Nobody's come close.

Speaker 5 (09:30):
Pete Rose.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Uh maybe what you know, it's it's got to be
top ten world's greatest baseball players, or at least hitters obviously,
But we'll talk about that. But first, you know, we're
we're doing this story on this guy, who's uh being
who is being prosecuted for hijacking a buzz and then
killing a guy on board. Guy worked at the stadium

(09:52):
on his way home, you know, trying to get by
in life. Doesn't have a car, can't afford a car,
so he's got to use the MTA, even though he
hears how dat it is, he's got to roll the dice,
and so he's got to get home.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
And he was killed.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
And man, the pictures of him, they look so he
looks like such a beautiful man like and everybody talks
about how great he was. You know, one of those
guys that keeps the whole family together. You're one of
the guys that you know, is constantly in touch with everybody,
putting parties together, making sure everybody's still in touch. That's
the kind of guy this guy was. And I got
wiped out, wiped out by a lunatic. Lunatic, and so

(10:30):
the guy didn't want to get out of his jail
cell to go face the judge. So we thought we'd
get some guy, a guy who knows a lot about
that area. Got named Johnny Shaky Hands Hanson. He was
with the bomb squad. Really a horrible name for a
bomb squad guy shaky hands.

Speaker 2 (10:47):
But he's with us. Let's pop him up online twelve
or whatever he's on.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Hey, I Hanson, how you Bob?

Speaker 10 (10:54):
I'm good, buddy, a little bit moody, but I'm doing
all right.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
For a Monday. They show up, you know that.

Speaker 10 (11:02):
They do occasions when inmates don't show up, we get moody.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
You do get movie.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Okay, So what happens if I'm in a cell and
I don't want to go face to judge? I thought
you just grabbed me and we're off to the races.

Speaker 10 (11:13):
Well that's the way it was back in the old days.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Wow.

Speaker 10 (11:16):
The Sheriff's part was facing so many lawsuits accusations of
excessive force that they got together in enacted cell extraction policy.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
All right, so how many how many?

Speaker 1 (11:29):
By the way, just to your background, how many years
were you with the LA Shriff's Department as.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
A deputy.

Speaker 10 (11:35):
Thirty two years?

Speaker 2 (11:36):
Thirty two years? Wow, what a terrific career.

Speaker 10 (11:39):
And how many years were the bomb squad and Central Jail?

Speaker 2 (11:41):
How many years of the bomb squad?

Speaker 10 (11:44):
Ten years with the bomb squad?

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Wow? And nothing blew up? Huh?

Speaker 10 (11:48):
You know a couple of after parties, there's blow up
we were okay.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Okay, all right.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
So so you were with the you were in the
lock up for a while. That's a guy's like me.
You know, the guys on the inside call it.

Speaker 10 (12:02):
Yes, sir. So they basically enacted an extraction policy, so
it for the most part, puts it on the judge
to determine how bad they want this guy in custody.
They want him to, you know, show up in court.
So if it's an arraignment like this guy was facing
you were talking about, they can arraign without him. They can,
you know, have his lawyer step in. But if it's

(12:24):
a jury trial and they already have a jury seated
and picked, you know, the judge is going to sign
an extraction order. At that point, the sheriff's department will
somewhat of a negotiation process. They'll send a supervisor in
there to talk to the guy. If that doesn't work
a lot of times, they'll have the jail chaplain go
in and talk to the guy. And if he's still refusing,

(12:47):
they have a hand selected group of deputies called an
extraction team, which they have special equipment, They have special uniforms.
Almost they look like a catcher, you know, baseball game,
and they'll go in and negotiate with the guy again
and negotia.

Speaker 5 (13:05):
They may say, again, negotiate.

Speaker 10 (13:09):
Well, they'll say, you know, what's it going to take
for you to get on this bus? Blah blah blah. Yeah,
I know, it's it's insane. And then the extraction team
videotapes the entire process, and if they do have to
lay hands, they'll have six or seven deputies rush the guy,
put them on a gurney, and then transport him to court.
And then a lot of times that extraction team will

(13:29):
follow you and meet to the courthouse. And then you know,
same procedure.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Is not a waste of a lot of guy's time, though.

Speaker 10 (13:37):
It is, but it saves the sheriff's apartment money time
in court. And then it also puts the onus on
the judge to say, you know, do we absolutely need
this person's physical presence in court before we go through
the extraction process.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
How about the balls on this guy?

Speaker 1 (13:53):
What was the guy's name is like Lamont Campbell or
something like that, but how about the balls on this guy?
Saying it you know he's old, that Anthony Rivera on
the empty but well, allegedly and and he doesn't want
to go to court.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
It doesn't feel like going to court. Yeah, but don't
these guys want to get out of the cell.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
I mean, when you get out of the cell, you
have an opportunity to escape jail.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
I mean, you know it's one one in a million,
but at least you have a shot.

Speaker 10 (14:18):
But you have a lot of jail house lawyers telling them, oh,
if you're not a rain within seventy two hours, they
have to cut you loose, which you know it doesn't
apply in this instance, but a lot of people believe that, like, oh,
you know, I'm gonna be cut loose if I could
just hang out for three days, right, And they end up,
you know, getting arraigned without their physical presence. Its just

(14:39):
a lawyer will step.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
In for them. Hey, real quickly.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
I know that you have taken you know, a lot
of your well deserved pension and salary, and you bought
yourself a little cabin up near Big Bear?

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Is your place safe right now?

Speaker 10 (14:52):
Yeah? So I'm in Green Valley Lake, which is right
between Big Bear and Arrowhead. So right now we're good.
But looks like, you know we were talking last night,
it looks like they're going to be starting some evacuations
in Boulder Bay, which is you know, kind of that
that east of Big Bear.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Oh that's horrible.

Speaker 10 (15:10):
So it's when you told me that that thing slired up.
I thought you were joking. Honestly, I couldn't believe it.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Yeah, well, it's what I usually do. It's my stand
up act.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Call guys who have houses in the mountains and tell
them that it's about to burn down. But I'm glad
you're your place is safe U. And also thanks for
thirty two great years, Bob.

Speaker 10 (15:31):
All right, buddy, Well we'll see you soon.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Dan in Morongo, Ye taking dong with you?

Speaker 5 (15:34):
All right?

Speaker 1 (15:35):
There he goes Johnny Hanson with the bomb squad LA
Sheriff's Department thirty two years, had nothing blown up. Ten
years of the bomb squad. And he had a dog
named Trixie, you know, one of bombs sniffing dogs. And
I went to a sofi stadium, ran into him, and
that dog, that Tricksy.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Was really hyper, really hyper dog.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
And we're walking around the stadium and there was a
young I don't know, twelve or thirteen years old just
holding a hot dog. That dog grabbed that hot dog
right out of her hand and wolfed it down. One bite,
bank gone gone. And you gotta hold those dogs around.
The dogs man, they go nuts. And so I said
to him, I said, hey, uh, are you sad you

(16:17):
missed Tricksy?

Speaker 2 (16:18):
He goes not at all.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
That dog was so hyper he had to get up
at six am every single day to walker.

Speaker 9 (16:24):
And I deal with enough stressful things in my life.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
That's all right.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
When we come back, we'll talk about Pete Rose has
passed away eighty three years old. Pete Rose, man, oh man,
what a life he had. We'll get some information on
Pete Rose.

Speaker 8 (16:42):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Mayo from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
Pete Rose is the big story right now.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
Born in nineteen forty one, died today in twenty twenty four,
and with us is the Duke of Sports, Eric Sclooring.
Nice to see him. Man, Hey, Timmy, you also you
produced the John Colebell Show.

Speaker 11 (17:02):
Yeah, the board up, technical director, social media manager.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Wow, everything got him mighty Lopez executive producer.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
They must pay you a lot then, with all those
titles knocking it out.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
You want to talk to my agent about that?

Speaker 1 (17:15):
So Pete Rose still has the most hits in baseball.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Yes, nobody's even close.

Speaker 11 (17:21):
Echio technically got close within a couple of thousand, well
a couple hundreds.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Oh that's something.

Speaker 11 (17:26):
But technically Eachiro has the hits crown if you combine
both his Japanese career and major Baseball. But yes, Pete
Rose still technically major League Baseball hit king.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Will that ever be eclipsed?

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Do you think uh Otani would do it? Or oh,
Tony maybe, But I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 11 (17:44):
The baseball records are so hard to break and they
stand the test of time.

Speaker 8 (17:49):
Really.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
But the first thing that everyone mentions when when they
say Pete Rose has died. All these TV stations are
doing this story right now. They all talk about his gambling. Yeah, yeah,
it's the first thing out of the shoot. Well, it's it's
the only thing keeping him out of the Hall of Fame.
It's it's the entire reason they don't have him in
the Hall of Fame. And he's one of the greatest players,
regardless of the off the field stuff. He is one

(18:12):
of the greatest players in baseball history. He should be
in the Hall of Fame. Yeah, realistically, And a lot
of people go to the Hall of Fame to see
his memorabilia.

Speaker 11 (18:21):
Yeah, and realistically, with all of the gambling Association now
that Major League Baseball has and all of the sports
leagues have, it's kind of intertwined. And it's it's kind
of silly that the whole reason Pete Rose was not
let into the Hall of Fame was because he was gambling.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
And he claims he never bet on his own team
to lose, right, Probably that's also dumb. You know, if
you're gonna bet on baseball, I might as well go
for it through a game too. But isn't Babe Ruth
in the Hall of Fame? Yes, okay, Baby Rus in
the Hall of Fame. He killed a couple of guys
off the field, Well remember that, I don't.

Speaker 4 (18:58):
I don't. I wasn't or live then.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
So I'm not gonna he killed a couple of guys
in the liquor store hold up apparently.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yeah, yeah, you didn't know them.

Speaker 4 (19:06):
I've heard the stories and the rumors. I wasn't alive.
I can't confirm deny.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
But that's so. P Rose eighty three years old. He
was a local at Woodland Hills or Thousand Oaks.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
I thought he lived in Vegas.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Oh he did. Oh maybe he's a Vegas guy.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
Yeah, I thought I thought he lived in Vegas. He
was always doing the signings out there, said.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
Makes sense, Yeah he's in Vegas, a Vegas guy avoiding taxes,
one of them. Vegas is the only town where you like,
if I moved to Miami, I wouldn't have to tell
you why I'm moving Cleveland or Detroit or Mission or
like you know, Saint Louis. But when you moved to Vegas,
you have to tell people, Oh, it's for the schools.
Oh I got a great job there. Oh I got
it starting a business. You want to stink off the

(19:48):
back that you got your bet with both hands up
in Vegas. But that's that's sad that that guy. I
thought again, I thought he was in his mid seventies.
I n he was eighty three.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
Yeah, I I said, I.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Would have said seventy one, seventy two. It looked great
last time I saw him. Yeah, it's but he dived.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
Do we know?

Speaker 4 (20:06):
No? I don't.

Speaker 11 (20:07):
I don't think it's been revealed yet, but I'm guessing
old age or Okay, all right.

Speaker 1 (20:12):
So that's a big story. Another big story is baseball.
All the playoffs have been said all the teams. Yes,
the Mets got in today and the Braves got in today. Yes,
and that's eliminated the Arizonas. Yeah, Diamondbacks are out. All
the Arizona need is is the Mets to sweep or
Atlanta to sweep today.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
And the doubleheader.

Speaker 4 (20:29):
Yeah, it was.

Speaker 11 (20:30):
It was quite the weird scenario because the Mets and
the Braves were playing a series last week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
and then Hurricane Yeah, Hurricane Heleen hit. They postponed the
Wednesday Thursday games to today. Both teams played out their
weekend series, still had two games today. If the Mets
won both games, Diamondbacks out, Mets in. If the Braves

(20:56):
won both games, Braves in.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
Mets O, Mets out. I'm Backs in right, so crazy.

Speaker 11 (21:02):
They split them and the Arizona got screwed. Yes, Arizona's out.
They split them. No champagne celebration though for the Mets.
In between the doubleheader games. The MLB hit to come
out and say, hey, no champagne celebrations for either team.
Whoever wins the first game, wait until after that's great.

Speaker 4 (21:19):
Both teams kind of joked that.

Speaker 11 (21:21):
They were like, oh, so at the end of the
second game, we should both just kind of come out
and have a joint celebration then if we split the series.

Speaker 4 (21:26):
Did they No? I don't think. So.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
That's great though. All right, so the Dodgers are going
to play who in the and we don't know. Yeah,
they'll play the winner of I believe it's the Padres
and Mets. Yeah, and you know last year, I think
it was last year, two years ago. You know, this
is going to be a short series. This third series,
it's a three game series and all three are going
to be in one ballpark. Remember they did that two

(21:49):
years ago? I don't I think, I know, I thought
all Mets, all the Mets and the Padres, where all
the all three games were played in New York.

Speaker 11 (21:56):
They might do that just for travel's sake and giving
the the number one wild card team home field advantage.

Speaker 4 (22:02):
So yeah, I mean, I can't remember if they did
that or not.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
Honestly, if I were running the Dodgers, and I'm not,
but I would have I would bring in the Saint
Louis Cardinals.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Are the Cardinals in the playoffs, No, okay, I'd bring the.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
Cardinals in and make the Dodgers play a simulated game today, Tomorrow, Thursday, Wednesday, Thursday,
and Friday, just to keep them just to keep them going.
You got to keep that, you know, you got to
keep fresh, You got to keep going. You got to
keep your bat. It's a rhythm. Yeah, and when you
sit on your bat, first of all, it's you know,
that's what you get that would hurt you get wiped out. Yeah,
all right, and then let's talk, since you're a Duka sports,

(22:36):
how bad is the ram season going to be?

Speaker 2 (22:39):
It's off to it.

Speaker 11 (22:40):
There were high hopes at the beginning of the season,
and then the injuries just started to pile up. No
Cooper Cup, no Puka Nakua, a couple other guys on
the line have been hurt. The defense has been atrocious.
I mean they're putting a lot of pressure on the quarterback,
but they're not tackling, so they're not finishing the play.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
It's like, yeah, you don't want your safety to make
to be the number one tackler of the team. No,
that means something has gone horribly or long somebody's getting
by the front line. But I mean losing to Chicago
this weekend in the fashion that they did. They only
had one touchdown out of the whole game. They had
four field goals. It's like they have no red zone offense.
They can't. You know, it's a mess. This was a

(23:21):
great weekend for football if you really weren't interested in
any of the teams. The college game that was great
was Georgia Alabama. That was a great game. What and
Alabama went ended up winning it after blowing a huge lead.
And then another one that when in the NFL a
team that almost blew a huge lead was the Green Bay.

Speaker 11 (23:43):
Yeah, the Green Bay Minnesota game was that was a
great game. But also locally, SCU was down twenty eight
to two nights. Yeah, and they could Wisconsin and then
they come back and win. They came back and covered Yeah.
You know, they were a fifteen point favorite. Yeah, and
so they were down by like thirty at one point,
they came back, tied in or went ahead and covered
by I think they won by seventeen. Yeah, and then

(24:03):
UCLA ended up covering too because they were twenty three
point dogs to Oregon, right, and then they end up
losing by twenty one.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
See that game always screws me up because any UCLA
home game that starts at seven. I fight traffic from
Santa Anita and I fight all these Inland Empire guys
going to that game. Yeah, that eight o'clock start on
Saturday was rough. It's tough for me, man, It's tough
for me. I get a ground Colorado and avoid that
whole run. Buddy, thanks for coming. Where do people see

(24:30):
you on? Hear you on the Duke of Sport at.

Speaker 11 (24:33):

Speaker 1 (25:07):

talked about Pete Rose passed away and Chris Christofferson passed away.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
And if you have a mom a lot do you
do out there? Man?

Speaker 1 (25:22):

Chris Christofferson. My mom got into that is bellio with
us Elleu in the other room.

Speaker 4 (25:31):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes did you?

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Was your mom a big Chris Christofferson? Yeah, he's a looker.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah, and you know what, I bet your mom same
as my mom, and same with a lot of my
friends moms.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
They all thought they had a shot with him.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
I guess he had the impact on all women, all
of them.

Speaker 4 (25:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
I've never met a person whose mom was into Chris
Christofferson that didn't dress up when they went to a
concert thinking they had a shot.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
They all did. It's weird, really weird.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
You know, there's no there's no other there's no other
performer out there. Maybe what's his name? Who's the guy Tom?
Who's the guy in Vegas? Everybody throws their underwear Tom Jones?
Maybe Tom Jones is another one, Elvis.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, you know that.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
That's almost an exclusive thing for women, you know, take
your underwear off and underpants off and throw it at
a singer.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
Like a lot of guys don't do that. I think
we know why. Yeah, I think we know. I think
we know. I know what I think. What do you think?
I just think it's hard to get off because guys
usually have jeans.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
That's why it's a technical thing, right, because they went,
we don't wear skirts or dresses. Yeah, you know, zip
them off and toss him up there. Man, he probably
is like a purel freak after a while. You know,
Tom Jones, he's big granny pant, he's flying past him.
But guys don't do that, Like when I go to

(27:01):
a King's game and they win. I don't throw my
underpants on the ice.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
You've never thrown? Yeah, I don't do it often. I
don't do them often.

Speaker 4 (27:09):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
And also, men's underpants are expensive, you know, so are ladies?
Are they?

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Yeah? They're not made of anything, like it's just a string.
How much do they be?

Speaker 3 (27:20):
Well?

Speaker 6 (27:21):
Silk?

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Okay, all right, all right, Chris Chrostofferson passed away Bellio's
mom's true love. Who else was she into? Was she
into like Kenny Rogers? Was she into did like Kenny?

Speaker 2 (27:38):
I think Ingelbert? Okay, all right?

Speaker 1 (27:40):
She probably didn't think she had a shot with them,
did she She actually did?

Speaker 4 (27:45):
Really?

Speaker 12 (27:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (27:47):
