drosin money, DROs in money, ros in.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Anger is a common derivative of fear. I'm so afraid.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Going on angry Petrosen Money Am five seventy LA Sports
were live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app and we got
a full four hour show. To four hours is what
we have three until seven pm, no play by play,
brewing insider Rivalry Week. I can only imagine what you're
(00:59):
seven to eight pm programming schedule is going to sound like.
As it is Rivalry Week. The town is a buzz house, divided,
flags or flapping, and I'm not doing that. We're not
doing I'm not gonna be mocked. I'm not going to
do a flip top story of the day. Next hour, Matt, I'll.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Address our eighteenth rival I'll address the lack of interest
yeteenth Rivalry week. The lack of interest will be addressed
when proper, and it will be proper next hour. I
can't take it right now. Nobody cares. We will have it.
We will have the game. We will have the game
with Josh Lewin down to the sidelines. What's cooking cookie?
(01:39):
I'm working in a couple different arenas. As far as
somebody to talk to. My father's still alive.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Right. Most of the people, as meems to have good perspective.
He does. Uh, that'd be that's that's a no brainer.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I've been working on the radio with the concierges. Well
not on the radio. I've been working on television with
a guy that works in the radio and he is
a concierge for the sports Lodge. We all have to
make a living. I thought you were going to talk about,
like Steveans, we want to tell you about so the
concierg the sports Lodge. You know, you got to have
(02:17):
other jobs too, because the lodge not a lot of guests.
I mean, you're floors that are taking this season. You
know it's different, but you know, well, what's its season?
I would think that maybe out of season might be
more popular. It's a tourist season in the summer, you know,
the Angels, but the sports Lodge. The guy I work
(02:38):
with who works at the sports Lodge, Trent Rush, is
in charge as a PR guy of the lot Impact Trophy. Okay,
so I said, hey, how about one hand washes the other?
And we talked to Roddy Lot. I'm sure he's forgotten
about cussing me out the five or six times you
could remind him that he's done. I enjoyed it. Well
(03:00):
maybe after I think he'd enjoy that. Let's get eight
minutes out of him first and then. But yeah, so
I got that iron in the fire through the lodge
in a way.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Why is he not delivering him to the lodge as
a vi Hey, lodge owner, I've got a guest for
the VIP suite.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Maybe the Petrosen Money Show. Maybe perhaps what the Petrosen
Money Show on Rivalry Week is a more coveted reservation
than even the President's suite at the Lodge.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
You owe it to the Impact Trophy to put Ronnie
on the most popular show in town. If you're the
PR guy and you work conciergra at the lodge, jank carpeted,
half empty locks busted on my room to come fix it.
It's not like it's been invaded by a Venezuelan gang.
I mean, give the no yet it is dilapidated. The
(03:54):
pool is like the pool that mister Miyagi was supposed
to be taking like that the off season.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
You're saying there's only two foot two feet of practice
brackish water in the pool at the sports lodge.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
That's exactly what you're wrong. Well, I don't.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I don't know what the lodge is like, but I
had to go through the lodge because of my connection
with young Trent Rush, who.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Is the PR head of PR for the Lot Impact.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Trent Rush is truly a man for all seasons. He
reminds me of a young Matt Mney Smith or Petros
Papadakis when we were breaking it's a rough future. You
saw the future, Trent. You saw the future sitting up
with the booth with you at Boise going like this,
but uh.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Get you can. You're still young.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You know He'll do you see Irvine games, travel around
with Russ Turner's team. He works the Lot Impact Trophy
calls college basketball for FS one called now does college
football for FS one. I think he's got a big
Fox game coming up on h Thanksgiving weekend, So happy
for Trent, and I had to go through the lodge.
(05:05):
So that's a self report. I'm filing a self report
that I have tried to get a USC person.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Rivalry and a list rest for rifle.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
And then Kates is trying to get Matt Castle on
from NBC. But the cast Dog, who's my old teammate
and I actually recruited him, Matt Castle is probably going
to do the Army or the Navy Notre Dame game
or Army Notre Name that day. And it's the second crew,
which should tell you something that's going to do the
(05:35):
SCUCLA game. So Castle is probably not even going to
be here. Plus I reminded Kates Castle never even played
in the damn game. We put them on a kickoff
team like once. Like Castle played like three plays at
USC God bless him. Maybe some maybe some uh some
more that I can't remember, but I was pretty much
there for his entire career. I would love to talk
(05:57):
to the cast Dog, but then there's always the the call, Well,
he's gonna bring up that you know that that I
said RSVP to his wedding and didn't show up.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
That's a bad move. Yeah, and you know, I mean,
we've all made mistakes.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I'm so sorry. We've all been there, so we don't
have anything. I have a story. I did that to
my college roommate. I stood.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
I was standing up in his wedding, a destination wedding
in CanCon. I showed up, thought I could get there
with my driver's license, and they're like, you need a passport,
you idiot. It's like, so you're not gonna let me
on the plane. My buddy's getting married, and they're like, no,
we're not letting you on the plane. Sorry about that, Damien.
I not gonna make your wedding. I didn't know I
needed a passport to fly to can Coon. Thought i'd
(06:40):
make it with the driver's license. I'm I'm an idiot.
Well I feel a little better now, but hey, at
least we were roommates in college and after college.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I just recruited the cast dog. I never watched him
sleep ever. But we will talk about it. Matt Okay,
Ronnie Lott Impact Trophy via the Lodge.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
We're looking into that. It's not it's not set in stone.
Used to be two guests per day. I don't every
day of rival on one. UCLA this hour, USC, next hour,
told you USC this hour, UCLA this hour.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I called the rotary phone that's on the wall at
the lodge. They picked it up. We're working on it
all right, lodge here. And I will say this randomly
and shockingly, despite being called a radio thug by the
owner of the lodge, the lodge started following me on
Twitter just the other day.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Is that right? Hello from the lodge? Like a LinkedIn,
when they start following you, they send you a message.
He sent you a He didn't send me a message,
but it's said following now following the lodge or the
individual that is the owner proprietor of the lodge, the
owner proprietor of the lodge. Is that right? I don't
think there's a difference. Well, you know, I was thinking
(07:52):
maybe your guy Trent runs the social media feeds lodge
and so he starts following you as opposed to the
individual that owns it. That point, I might have to
ask Trent about that. So if it was the owner
the individual, then that would be weird. But if it's
just the actual show. Then that's probably just Trent and
doing the following well fakes, Matt, thanks for blowing the
(08:13):
wind right out of it, Like you want that hatchet buried,
you prefer to to be sharpened. Well, he called us
radio thugs? Did he call us radio thugs or studio gangsters?
Studio thugs? Studio thugs? Like you're not real thugs, your
thugs in the studio. But I get you out here
and I'm gonna kick you in the ball.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, like he's gonna fight me right, fight you right now?
I kick you in the face on a pile. Oh
that's a good one, it really is. That made the
rounds this morning.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
That guy should have been acting so hard, right, what
are you doing pumping your fist? It's a pickleball man
yelling and everybody acting hard. He kicked in the face.
Tired of that. I don't like over the competitive people.
I don't know why, but I visualized that guy as
the lead singer of the band Disturbed. It's like, I
think that guy is the lead singer of Disturbed. The
guy kicked that kicked and he was short, he was ball,
(08:59):
He's a mustley.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
He walked away and then there was somebody like half
asked in front of him, but it never didn't seem
to go anywhere any of that.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I just kicked that guy in the face. You want
some of this, so we is.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
That how I played pick a ball? I'll kick you
in the face, Matt has. Matt has started the show
with some rivalry week talk. That was not our intention.
We'll get to it in the next hour.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Game on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
The hot topic, Matt is Dodger related, and we have
two guests regarding that. Our two guests today our Dodger
related because we are your Dodger Station and the Dodgers
are coming off shocking and wowing the city, sending everybody
reeling into orbit.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
In ecstasy for weeks and weeks.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
With the World Series victory over the New York Yankees,
of all your heroic performances by Walker Buehler, Freddie Freeman,
it was glorious.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Championship for the Ages. And now, Matt, as you know,
the rich could possibly get richer. That's the report. As
Scott Morris and Juan Soto from the Yankees are meeting
with the Dodgers today and they say it's no be yes.
They say that the Dodgers very well could end up
landing Juan Soto that much like they did with Yamamoto
because he was twenty five years old and handed him
(10:09):
three hundred and twenty five million. Because one Soto is
so young that this is the type of player the
Dodgers will spend on that they are not interested in
handing over six hundred million bucks to a thirty year
old because that's the going rate, But because of Soto's
age and his production and the fact that they can
afford it, it's a very realistic possibility that the rich
(10:31):
get richer Andjan Soto was inserted into a lineup. What
about Teo Scar Well, I would spell the end of
TiO Scar And for some that doesn't sit well, Like
I don't want you to go out and buy this guy.
I like the guy we have. I like the guy
we have. I want sunflower seeds thrown in my face.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I like his enthusiasmos Right, there's too many big Dodger
egos already, and one Soto's big ego didn't mix with
Manny Machado's big ego and they couldn't coexist in San Diego.
Why take that chance in the city of.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Angel exactly right. He ain't gonna outshine show hal Tani.
Do you like skin chroducts? Probably he ain't gonna outshine
Freddy Freeman after that postseason.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Not not Juan Soto, not gonna happen. So why does
he want to sign here?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Because he likes Southern California hundreds of millions of dollars,
never wanted to leave. Is that the case he didn't
want to leave the podse?
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I think they say that he really liked southern California.
He likes living here as opposed to the big town.
And that's really his only two options. It's either going
to be Yankees, Mets or Dodgers. He can make it
the Dodgers. He'd prefer that to be the case. That's
the word on the street. Well, that's quite interesting. So
we got to bring on two people to talk about that.
Who are we bringing on? Matt vas kerzhen MLB Network
(11:45):
will join us next, and then Bill Plashki in the
five o'clock hour from the La Times. Man who's got
his finger on the pulse of Los Angeles sporting society
better than any other individual alive. Well's he think? What
does he want? What do we want? What do you want? Matt?
Did you write a story about this today? In my head?
(12:06):
All right, well, what do you want?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Didn't write it down on paper? Tell me what you want,
what you really really want when it comes because you
usually tell you what I want, what I really really want?
You want to want, I want to When it comes
to the Dodgers, Matt, you usually are a lot more
open happening. You're honest about what you want. I don't
see it happening. I think Andrew Friedman values the well
rounded player too much, and Juan Soto's defensive limitations would
(12:32):
preclude him from being signed to some fourteen year, six
hundred and fifty million dollars deal that Scott Boris is
looking for. I just think he's like, no, he's put
a tent on the guy.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Man.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
He's a circus out there, and that doesn't fly. You
already got Otani is your DH You know you can't.
That's going to be the case for the next nine
years at least, So why do it just because he
wants to talk? You got to listen to what he's saying.
I guess the big man with the feathered hair and
the long speech prepared in his pocket. Maybe gave him
(13:04):
the green light. Hey, you want to spend six hundred
million bucks on one sodo? I don't care, do it?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Mark Walter? Yeah, with his hair and his hat both
visible at the same.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Time in the hat visible same time right of the hair,
front of the hair of the hair. I don't want
to tuck it into the hat. I want you to
know I'm not.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Got this starship enterprise hair thing going on under the
bill of the hat. Here it comes, I'm a billionaire,
yet I still wear my hat like this. People are afraid,
like they're afraid to say anything to Lebron to say
what do you do with your hat?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Why you wear your hat like that? And then the
other half want to say, what do you do with
your hair? Way get your hair like that? And neither
We'll make mention of it, and he'll continue to wear
it in that manner.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
All right, Matt, I've taken the liberty of pulling some
instrumental lodge music.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Okay, then we get to the bottom of it.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
There's a lot of lodge talk on the text Doso PMS,
and the lodge is like the jets of the Shark
with way less singing and way more Puzzo measured.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
This says they're the SNL sketch when Norm was the
gang leader. McDonald's like trying to get them fight. Every
time they're about to fight, the guys that freak out
into what are you doing?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
The knife is the best. If I'm in a night five,
I'm not doing a plia. I heard the lodge still
has a cigarette vending machine that even sells clothes cigarettes
and no filter Marlboro RT.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I'd like to get over to the lodge, you know what.
I'd like to find a cigarette machine to jam the thing.
They have one at the tally ran fourteen quarters into
take my chance with that pull and see what comes out.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
No one knows who Ruhelio Chavez is. Yes, they do.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Come on those that know. No, It's like just another
inside joke on the Betros and Money Show. If you know,
you know, it's not common knowledge, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
The lodge doesn't have a pool, but you know that
hot tub is burgan.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Hot tub is polluted.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I like the idea of the lodge being a comfortable
place with the fire going.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
You open the lobby. Roger Lodge is vansive. He's at
the desk welcoming you, free water, free coffee.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It I imagine the lodge looking like from that noir
movie Bad Times at the l Royale. Yes, like that
that hotel that's on the border between Nevada and California.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
It's interesting that's how you visualize it. I visualize it
as the hotel and the Devil's rechex. Oh okay, just like
a roadside dumpy motel where people are murdered and hookers
ply their trade. Maybe we can meet in the middle
at the hotel from the Shining Well, now that talking
about the catskills. Glorious bad things happen there, but a
(16:10):
glorious property. I just like the idea that we're in
touch with the lodge. You like the idea like Scatman.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Carrethers getting on the phone with that little kid, you know,
and the Shining we're in touch with the lodge. For
Ronnie Lott and I've actively path to walk. I'm calling
two football games with the concierge of the lag.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I don't want him to get in trouble. I don't
want him to get in trouble with the Lodge because
of all this, because Ronnie lot well, because every time
we try to check into the lodge, they say your
money's not good. Here the lodge started following me on Twitter.
Look at this, This says the lodge is the only
place you can get an STD after sleeping alone.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Now when you say they have a cigarette machine that
swallows in and san Juan cap Matt, this.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Is who's following you. That's him. That's the follow that
you just got. I believe Roger Lodge. Yes, you are
one of the five thousand Twitter accounts that he follows.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Well, it's still a new follow for me. Okay, don't
try to be like Bill Ryder. You know that happened
to me once. What I was like, Oh cool, what's
that girl Summer's following me? Yeah, something like that one
of those chicks. I think it's the one from the
Driving Me Crazy. CHRISA explains it all that chick. Okay,
you know that little know me looking chick Sarah Michelle Geller. No,
(17:28):
that that's the other one. That's the other one. That's
the one from She's on that one. I was like, ooh,
Sara Michelle Gell Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I was like ni. I was like, hey, so and
so follows me? How cool deal? I haven't followed to
a Bill rider.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
I was like, f you, I hate you now and
I unfollowed her. But yeah, the little gnome girl from
Driving Me Crazy. Remember that movie time Zone High. It's
a great coming of age. It's got Adrian Granier in
it from Entourage. Nobody, Nobody. All right, I'm deep into
(18:01):
the lodge right now and seeing you're just.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
You're jealous that the Lodge doesn't follow you. That's what
it is.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Incredibly incredibly you're jealous that I could get in season
off season rates in season at the Lodge.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
That's what you're jealous viciously. I can tell Melissa Joan
Hart that's her. There you go, she follows me too
a few bill right. Okay, here's the big question before
we wrap this and get to best ershon. Did you
(18:37):
follow the lodge back? I have to check did you
follow the lodge back? And for shame if you did,
what do you mean? I'm trying to get Rodny Lott
on the show, Mada, I'm working for us. He has
no saying it. Trent Rush is the peer.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Like you said, we don't want to get him in trouble.
We don't want to get him in trouble.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Did you follow him back? Oh, Melissa Jonehart doesn't follow
me anymore? Did you follow him back? Let me look, hey,
Melissa Johnhart didn't follow you anymore? Have you know that
I'm one of the one hundred and forty nine point
three thousand people that she does follow? Damn it still
in with Melissa Joan and I don't even follow you
(19:19):
don't even know that movie. I don't even follow her.
I never followed her back. That's upsetting. I can't find him. Matt?
Is he under Rohelio? Well no, if you just pull up, Oh,
it's just rot your lunch. Oh here he is follows
me and oh and you haven't followed him. Good.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
That's classy by you not to follow him back. But
if I might follow him back, you know why, why
try to get Roddy Latta?
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Why?
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Well we got Matt vas kershen. Yeah, but how does
that help us with Roddy Lott? Well it doesn't. It's
gonna speak to rivalry week and how much it's fallen
off where we've got two guests to talk about the
Dodgers and they won the World Series a month ago.
It's kind of where the things stand right now.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
You know I'm hearing from the lodge right now. Insane,
Please check in. We need the reserves.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Some great Adirondack chairs available for you up front, say
parkeep anybody sitting here? Ain't nobody's said in that chaf
for two weeks? Yeah, make yourself, dare you? Matt maskershon
talking Dodgers signing Juan Soto possibly.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Hey Trent, Matt, Matt, now you used to do a
whole bunch of jobs just like you go around killing
ourselves leading us. Now we're doing great, and it's great.
This is what you got to look forward to, young man. Congratulations.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
All right, let's not wake up the dog. We'll be

and the Scott Borris strings being pulled. So joining us
right now. Our favorite National Baseball Voice. It is not
even close. Oh, he understands Southern California.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Well, he understands Glendale.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
He knows it. Well, that's right, go ahead, I'll turn
it up a little for m LB benwork super host.
He can do play by play, he can be the anchor.
He has information, he has humor. Yeah, strength and charm, dashing,
good looks, ageless shoining us on your Southern California Toyota
(22:09):
neater celebrity hotline. Love that Toyota of Glendale. That's where
I go. Bro, there's a Kababby right down the street.
It is the great fact Matt vast cursion. I'm sorry,
but it's the solo guy. I have some of the
La sports. Let's crack a maths kursion.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
How are you Toyota of Glendale. I'm sure if you
go there with an Ia in it your last name,
they give you the Armenian discount, which is a surcharge
of twenty percent. I'm telling you there is the Armenian discount.
It works in reverse. We all think, oh, let's go
to the Armenian chiropractor. Well, sure, if you want your
(22:50):
insurance charged three times.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
You're gonna get us killed bro Not true, not true
at all, bro Bro. We hear what guy from New
Jersey say on show there's gonna be a white BMW
that t bones me when I'm making my way up
the one thirty four tonight.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
And it's gonna smell of arab.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Oh too good.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Ah, what a time to be alive. We always love
talking to you. Would you do this every off season
so none of this stuff is a surprise to you.
When the rich get richer, it's not like you know,
you guys really toil over who the Reds are gonna
sign it free agency? But when you hear Juan Soto's
talking to the Dodgers, how does it make you feel?
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I'll put it this way. As a Dodger fan, I
would feel invincible. I would feel completely locked in for
the next decade of my fandom. I'd feel very good
about the Raulmandasy jersey hanging in my closet. I'd feel
really good about all of it.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
He was arrested. He screamed in the back that's where
we get it from. He screamed in the back of
the car. I'm a dollar.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
I didn't even know what I was stumbling into with
that one. Swear to you. I think for the rest
of the league, though, I just feel really beaten down because,
I mean, you talk about creating a chasm of a
disparity here between the it's not even the rich and
the poor, or the haves and the have nots, it's
the Dodgers and everybody else. The Mets are the only
(24:38):
team that could enter the conversation with the Dodgers in
terms of that bottomless supply of finance, not even the Yankees,
who are really up against it. They're in a terrible
spot here with this Soto thing because he was important
to them. And if the figure that we're hearing today
is close to being accurate, and we were hearing at
(25:00):
six sixty, then I don't know how the Yankees can
continue to play in that arena. You can't bring one
Soto back at double what you're paying, Aaron Judge. You
just can't beyond the financial inconceivability of it all. What
kind of message is that saying to your guy who
(25:21):
was homegrown, who's a record holder, who's going to be
in Monument Park someday, that the next shiny guy that
comes in and has a big year is going to
double your then record setting contract, which didn't set a
record for very long. So the Yankees are in a
tough spot. The Mets would love nothing more than to
poach the biggest free agent from the Bronx and bring
(25:44):
them over to Queens. And meanwhile the Dodgers are sitting
around thinking we're going to get them if we want them.
And that's all there is to it. And it's my
understanding that they really want them. If I were assigning
like a top three in who's gonna land Wan Soto
at six sixty the Mets, that number is going to
(26:05):
speak loudest. I put the Mets and Dodgers at one
and two, and then the Yankees at third, and then
everybody else is in a no chance bucket. All this
nonsense we hear about, Oh he's taking meetings with Toronto
and Boston and the Phillies don't have a meeting, but
they're interested. That was the latest thing today. That's all
just culling a market. That's all stuff. That's just helping
the agent, not that he needs any help with this.
(26:27):
It's really now the three teams for.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Me, How does just baseball wise, you know, with Otani,
you know, locked in too be in DH for the
next ten years. How does that work with Sodo? Are
we are we kind of missing it on his his
defensive abilities, his limitations, or how would that work for
the next decade when you already got the best hitter
in the game at your DH spot.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
That's a really good point, Mattuh. You know, if short
term see serviceable in right field, I'm not going to
say he's good out there, that's my opinion. They're going
to try to tell you that he's good out there.
You know, he threw a runner out in the first
series of the year in Houston, and then everybody's like,
oh my god, look at what what the pinstripes are
(27:10):
doing to his defensive matrics. Now, no, no, he's he's
not considered a plus defender. And that's about as diplomatically
as I could say that. So you live with it
in the short term and then you hold your nose
in the long term and hope that he hits three
thirty with forty homers every year, because guys can hit
their way out of being bad defenders and still be
considered generational talent. But that DH spot is spoken for
(27:34):
with Otani, and that's another thing. If Otani signed for
seven hundred million, and he pitches and it hits, and
is the most ridiculously perfect player that's ever been created
and the possibly the most talented player that's ever played sport.
You're going to pay Wan Soto close to that? I
don't get the mass. It just doesn't make any sense
to me.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
He has that twitch style, you know, he does all
the weird stuff, you know, a hard look at the
pitchers if they walk them's the act, you know, Hollywoodani
just goes up there and apologizes to everybody.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
He is good TV that shuffle, love him or hate him,
like he's going to help somebody. I don't mean to
be a detractor of Wan Soto. He's going to help somebody.
And the Yankees don't get to the World Series without
him last year. But we're talking about commensurate money with Otani.
The next closest deal in terms of richest in baseball
history after Otani is in the three hundred millions. You're
(28:28):
telling me you're going to skip all the way to
six for Wan Soto. I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
You know what, we don't get Roki Sasaki just because
we have no idea what it is we've just been
told that. It's like you thought Yamamoto was great, Sasaki's
the guy, and.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
We took their word for it. With Yamamoto, we're like, yeah,
let's get him and it worked out. What about Sasaki?
What can you tell us about him? How good is
he is? This projection? Is he already delivered?
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Like? What is this dude?
Speaker 3 (28:56):
No, the word is on him that he is an
unfinished product. He's only twenty three, and I think therein
lies all the intrigue and the interest in his upside.
So this is a guy. This is a guy that's
so young. He grew up idolizing you Darvish who's still
in the middle of his career. He's that much of
(29:16):
a kid. If he was this good in Japan and
he was like you know, look, anybody can google the numbers.
He was pretty dominant there. His high school track record
kind of got him on the tabloids immediately, and then
he became a star from there with the Marines, I
think was his team. If he was that good already
(29:37):
and then he comes here, the thought is he gets
even better, and you lock up a twenty three year
old guy for a long term deal. As opposed to
a Dice, K Matsuzaka, a Yamamoto, guys who wait and
play their full career there before being posted by the club.
It really has to do with getting him at an
(29:58):
earlier expiration date. The Otani came here earlier. If Roki
Sasaki had waited two years, he could come here as
an unqualified free agent and signed for four hundred million
dollars or whatever the numbers are at that point. He
wants to come here and compete. He's going to get
a princely sum certainly down the road, but he's going
to be pretty good, according to everybody I've talked to.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Matt Vaskerzhon a hero, to the people here, to all
of us from the MLB network, do you think the
Dodgers should bring back all the guys that make you
feel good?
Speaker 1 (30:31):
You know, like to Scar and Keik.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Walker, Walker Buehler, old shark face, you know, the guys
that the guys that they were all going to let
go if they didn't win.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
Yeah, it felt like Walker Buehler was going to have
to look elsewhere for employment in August, right because it
just was wobbly. When he came back. I think he's
got a pretty good chance to come back. And Keik
has turned into such a cult hero that he's probably like, look,
there's only four Dodgers that have ever hit more postseason
(31:04):
homers than Kei k a Hernandez, he's a different guy.
In October, tay Oscar was great too. I wouldn't be
surprised if all those guys come back. I wouldn't be
surprised if Taoscar Hernandez is replaced by Juan Soto in
the outfield and or Anthony Santandre, who's a really good
switch hitting free agent. With the Orioles, that Dodgers are
(31:26):
in a position where they can do whatever they want.
And if they want to bring in a glue guy
like uh, like key k to add to the glue
guy like the shortstop that they've got that they've brought
back Rojas, Miguel Rojas, who they love. That's fine, they
could do that, keep them keep him on the phantom
iyel for a few days, send him to triple A, ah,
(31:47):
bring him back up for the fall.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Why not? All right, let's get negative here. It's been fun.
But what the hell is wrong with whoever does the
nominating and Dave Roberts not being up for Manager of
the Year, Like, how were they not? I get it,
They've got Otani and all that, but I mean, Mookie
BET's gone half the year. They lose pretty much their
entire rotational Tani's not pitching and he doesn't even get
(32:11):
to be one of the three finalists. Are we missing
something or are we blind to kind of what really
went on in baseball this year?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
No, I don't think you're missing anything, Matt. I think
the problem there is that award the finalists usually go
or the votes usually go to the guys. Are the
perception around the guy who did the most with the
least so Milwaukee and I think Pat Murphy is gonna
win the award tonight. But Pat Murphy small payroll, lost
(32:40):
his best starting pitcher, lost his biggest hitter in June
for the rest of the year, won back to back
division titles for the first time in franchise history. Mike
Shelton San Diego, he has more to work with, but again,
the guy that comes in as a first year manager
better than expected in San Diego. And for the Mets, Mendoza,
(33:01):
they were dead after the first eight weeks of the
season and people were talking about him being a whiff
as a higher well, from July first on they had
the best record in the sport. So you've got three
candidates who around whom the perception was they did more
with less, and everybody just kind of assumes that since
Dave Roberts has this cachet of stars, it's easy to
(33:21):
manage that group. We know that to be different. I
think this was his best managerial job, and that's really
saying something for a guy who's been as successful as
he has. He had to dance well in the postseason
for them to win a World Series. And I get
that this is a regular season award, but I think
in the minds of the voters there were three guys
who had to work harder at it given their roster limitations.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Well, we love.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Him, the great Matt Vaskerzion, a hero to all of
us baseball information always at a premium there and very
smoothly and I would say comfortably delivered.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Makes you feel like you're wins of the Rose Bowl
this weekend. Guys who wins at the Rose Bull, you know,
as a curious onlooker.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Well, certainly not the uh that everybody loses is what
it feels like. Got the box office.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
There not the Southern California football public.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
I mean granted, I played in a few of these
that were very meaningless and they meant everything to me.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
But uh yeah, it just feels like one of those years.
If a tree falls in the forest, We'll let you
know if it makes us sound.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
I got it, got it?
Speaker 1 (34:26):
There he goes, mad Vest Cursion, take that to the
coffee machine.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
We'll see what happens with Soto. If Sodo signs with
the Dodgers, everybody's gonna leave and write an article about that.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
That's true. Matt Vest Cursion, the best on the Petros.
Somebody Show. We'll be back with the Textos Rodeo round it,
I Show some Money five seventy el A Sports Live
everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. A huge thank you to
(34:55):
Madvest Cursion MLB Network. The Dodgers are meeting with Soto.
You heard what he said, Mets Dodgers one in one A.
You know how.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Mondesy got Jack for that DUI doing donuts and a ram. Well,
it's not like he was just out, you know, trying
to get home. Yeah, weaving, fading a little bit. I'm
gonna show off. I gotta can I'm a dower. Thank
you to Matt Beskers, really nice talking to him. Great
(35:25):
guy and still to come Bill Plashki. I mean, we
got a lot to get into with Bill obviously, the
Dodgers and Juan Soto and this meeting and Bronnie. I
don't know what to say about that, but you know, Bronnie,
then you got a rivalry week.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
You know what I'm tired of being. You know, I'm
just saying, like all the things that I want to
talk to Bill about, it's not just Dodgers. For those
that are like, hey, I get it, we won the
World Series. You're gonna sign a guy for six hundred
million bucks. I want to say, Matt, We'll get more
in there with Bill beyond the Dodge just because of
the charge are big right now. Aaron Rodgers sucks. I
have lamented rival rivalry week except for saying it. I
(36:08):
hate saying.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Derek Carr is on his last starting job back the
next year. Just all of these things are happened. The
Chiefs just lost. All of the planets for Matt Smith
are a lined the big swell over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Six and one and one score games. It had to
happen eventually. I mean it does. Magic had to run out.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
It doesn't mean that you could just sit here in
poop mouth. I don't want the only thing that I'm
an expert on that no one cares about anymore.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
I don't want to poop much. I'm tired of it, mad,
I'm tired of the tired of the putdowns. Want it
to be great. I'm tired of the putdowns. It's not
gonna be great, but I wrote a story about it.
I want to Doldo to join us. He is. He's
one of the few Paul Hackett to join us.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Paul's not quite there as he used to be. But
you know, some of the our coaches aren't as cogent
as they were back in the day.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
About Pete Carroll, what's he doing. Let's get Pete back.
I'll never come back with your dad. You're teaching a
class for like nineteen kids. Let's go. I burned back
on the show. I burned a lot of bridges. Doesn't
mean they can't be rebuilt. You know, they got updated materials,
that trek stuff. It's not wood, it's like that plastic
wood hybrid. Those bridges last forever. Time for some textosos
(37:16):
line brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
We make it easy.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Hey, p I've heard you can get a primo rate
at the Lodge during the Angels offseason, but you have
to continuously feed the old school vibrating bed quarters all
night long. Also, red Bum has been known to mysteriously
appear on the Dirty bathroom mirror along with a grinning,
naked and Anthony red Dome. Hey, no hotel is perfect,
(37:46):
Red Bomb, red Bumb. I want to stay at the
Red Bomb, red Bum. I want to start it. I
want to stay at the shot I don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
It's this ghostly bum that kept crapping outside my door.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Suddenly the elevator was flooded with cheap beer. This is
now the pickleball Show of record. Hey, I'm down with
the sickness we all saw. If you didn't see, there's
a pickleball clip.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Like.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
My wife likes pick like most. My wife kind of
got into pickleball. And then you know, we would go
and we would go to the desert and they have courts,
you know, at the family compound in the Sunrise Country Club,
and we go over there and right with the kids
and stuff, and you see like there's some adults and
they're like god, you know, like really getting after it,
(38:36):
and like this is like one of those type of
games where the people are like they really want to win.
And the guy wins and he's like and then he
gets kicked in the face.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Yeah, he like goes to high five the guy or something.
He slaps his racket and then goes to pick it up,
and as he picks it up, the guy's like, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
He kicks him in the kicks him in the face
to where the guy crumples down but his hat goes flying.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Great moment in pick and I think it's like a
sanctioned team pickleball because the one team had on matching
outfits kind of add on the pink shirts. Yeah, like hey,
we might be wearing pink, but we'll kick you in
the face, right Okay, Like literally, we'll kick you in
the face even though we wear pink. Just because I'm
a gay guy doesn't beat. I can't kick you, hast,
I will take you in the face.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
Do you think Matt screams out suck when he's either
on the can or surfing or punching burnout beach obos
going down Electric Avenue like a cock. Suck the twoy
toy polow two sack call from Sunday Night Football.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
It's a great call. I think it's the first time
I've ever said sack like that. Suck.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
No twin ballsack, It's not a twin ballsack. Money asked
you if you followed the lodge in the.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Did you order the code red voice? Why did he
do that? Yeah, you know, I follow the lodge. If
I want tell me who I can hang out with. Say,
I'm not telling you. I asked a question. Hey, I
like Fernando. He called you a studio thug.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
He's he's a He's this fun guy and he's nice
and he knows how to treat a woman.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
I like Roger. He takes me out by having someone's
hand all over your ass.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Hey, fool, I live in Pomona and the bums here
catch those peacocks and straight barber to him in the parks.
That's I know, I know they do that. He's lemon
the good meat good with a lemon an annoying noise
emanating from a source that Kates can't call the cops on.
You know that full shoots parrots. You think Kates has
(40:44):
ever shot a parrot.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
No, I don't think he has. I think he dreams
about it and then he wakes up and he cleans
his gun and he thinks about it. But then he
just goes to the range and unloads all that into
nothing but targets. There's a warm gun. Bang bang, shoot, shoot,
says man. One day. One day, guy's going to kick
(41:08):
my door and then he's going to try to rob
this place. It's going to be my time to shot.
It's going to be my time to shot. You know.
There was a guy who got my fingerprint gun saved.
All I gotta do is put my thumb on it,
pops open. It's loaded and ready to go.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
There's a guy who apparently spent some time in Alcatraz
and some other places who came back to San Pedro
after working for my great grandfather. Came back to San
Pedro after working, uh doing it, doing some hard time,
some hard times, that stony lonesome, and came home to
San Pedro and saw the name of his employer on
a big restaurant on sixth and Center and walked right in.
(41:44):
They called him the Big Man. He had a Muslim
name that I can't recall right now, but he became
a charge of the family, you know, for the rest
of his life. And within five days of being home,
maybe maybe years, maybe a couple of years, but it
was like right when he got home or around that time,
two men came into his house and he shot them
(42:05):
both through the head, just like Kates would, Just like
he would you intruders down at San Pedro.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Allow me the opportunity. I don't know why my father,
I don't know why. But the next day, you know,
after he murdered these men or you know, defended himself,
killed them whever I killed him, we were sitting at
Traine's Majestic in Sampedo now a green Onion, and I
don't know why. My dad thought it was a valuable lesson,
but you know, he was me and my older brother
and we're like six sitting with big Man. Big Man
(42:32):
was probably like a six seven foot black guy, and uh,
my dad said, you know, tell them what you did.
You're like, well, these man came in and I shot
them bold. You know, he told the story and then
he goes, you tell the boys what you would do
to somebody if they messed with the boys, or as
(42:53):
the family, and he goes track him down, and I
brought him away and he put his fist on.
Speaker 2 (42:59):
The He hit his fist on the table and on
the mazzarella marinera flew off the table, and my dad's
Amstell light you know, went down, rolling off the table.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
I was like, why did I have to have that?
That's immediately what I thought.
Speaker 2 (43:15):
When I thought Tim kats in the doorway, waiting for
the door to crack, I thought of the big Man
sitting there.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
I'm gonna blow him away.
Speaker 2 (43:21):
I mean, I took calls from the Big Man my
whole life till he died. And now his ashes are
literally in a box on my dad's desk, kind of box,
a metal box with his name on there.
Speaker 1 (43:34):
Ornate or no, just very plain, and.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
It is our most modestly priced earned I do remember
the Yeah, he served his time. He paid his death
to society with his common law wife, Missus Hampton, wonderful.
Oftentimes the Big Man would call from the A one
market in sam Pedro's Italian place is screaming at its
(44:00):
on the phone. Big Man would trying to get a
ham on the family charge, which of course we were
happy to We'd be happy to, but you know I
need a ham. And then you know you gotta get
this guy a helm of what bed like eight years old. Yeah,
I get the ham.
Speaker 1 (44:17):
Let him have it, let him, let him have it.
Speaker 2 (44:22):

(01:39):
I'm working in a couple different arenas. As far as
somebody to talk to. My father's still alive.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Right. Most of the people, as meems to have good perspective.
He does. Uh, that'd be that's that's a no brainer.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I've been working on the radio with the concierges. Well
not on the radio. I've been working on television with
a guy that works in the radio and he is
a concierge for the sports Lodge. We all have to
make a living. I thought you were going to talk about,
like Steveans, we want to tell you about so the
concierg the sports Lodge. You know, you got to have
(02:17):
other jobs too, because the lodge not a lot of guests.
I mean, you're floors that are taking this season. You
know it's different, but you know, well, what's its season?
I would think that maybe out of season might be
more popular. It's a tourist season in the summer, you know,
the Angels, but the sports Lodge. The guy I work
(02:38):
with who works at the sports Lodge, Trent Rush, is
in charge as a PR guy of the lot Impact Trophy. Okay,
so I said, hey, how about one hand washes the other?
And we talked to Roddy Lot. I'm sure he's forgotten
about cussing me out the five or six times you
could remind him that he's done. I enjoyed it. Well
(03:00):
maybe after I think he'd enjoy that. Let's get eight
minutes out of him first and then. But yeah, so
I got that iron in the fire through the lodge
in a way.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Why is he not delivering him to the lodge as
a vi Hey, lodge owner, I've got a guest for
the VIP suite.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Maybe the Petrosen Money Show. Maybe perhaps what the Petrosen
Money Show on Rivalry Week is a more coveted reservation
than even the President's suite at the Lodge.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
You owe it to the Impact Trophy to put Ronnie
on the most popular show in town. If you're the
PR guy and you work conciergra at the lodge, jank carpeted,
half empty locks busted on my room to come fix it.
It's not like it's been invaded by a Venezuelan gang.
I mean, give the no yet it is dilapidated. The
(03:54):
pool is like the pool that mister Miyagi was supposed
to be taking like that the off season.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
You're saying there's only two foot two feet of practice
brackish water in the pool at the sports lodge.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
That's exactly what you're wrong. Well, I don't.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I don't know what the lodge is like, but I
had to go through the lodge because of my connection
with young Trent Rush, who.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Is the PR head of PR for the Lot Impact.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Trent Rush is truly a man for all seasons. He
reminds me of a young Matt Mney Smith or Petros
Papadakis when we were breaking it's a rough future. You
saw the future, Trent. You saw the future sitting up
with the booth with you at Boise going like this,
but uh.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Get you can. You're still young.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You know He'll do you see Irvine games, travel around
with Russ Turner's team. He works the Lot Impact Trophy
calls college basketball for FS one called now does college
football for FS one. I think he's got a big
Fox game coming up on h Thanksgiving weekend, So happy
for Trent, and I had to go through the lodge.
(05:05):
So that's a self report. I'm filing a self report
that I have tried to get a USC person.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Rivalry and a list rest for rifle.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
And then Kates is trying to get Matt Castle on
from NBC. But the cast Dog, who's my old teammate
and I actually recruited him, Matt Castle is probably going
to do the Army or the Navy Notre Dame game
or Army Notre Name that day. And it's the second crew,
which should tell you something that's going to do the
(05:35):
SCUCLA game. So Castle is probably not even going to
be here. Plus I reminded Kates Castle never even played
in the damn game. We put them on a kickoff
team like once. Like Castle played like three plays at
USC God bless him. Maybe some maybe some uh some
more that I can't remember, but I was pretty much
there for his entire career. I would love to talk
(05:57):
to the cast Dog, but then there's always the the call, Well,
he's gonna bring up that you know that that I
said RSVP to his wedding and didn't show up.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
That's a bad move. Yeah, and you know, I mean,
we've all made mistakes.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I'm so sorry. We've all been there, so we don't
have anything. I have a story. I did that to
my college roommate. I stood.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
I was standing up in his wedding, a destination wedding
in CanCon. I showed up, thought I could get there
with my driver's license, and they're like, you need a passport,
you idiot. It's like, so you're not gonna let me
on the plane. My buddy's getting married, and they're like, no,
we're not letting you on the plane. Sorry about that, Damien.
I not gonna make your wedding. I didn't know I
needed a passport to fly to can Coon. Thought i'd
(06:40):
make it with the driver's license. I'm I'm an idiot.
Well I feel a little better now, but hey, at
least we were roommates in college and after college.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I just recruited the cast dog. I never watched him
sleep ever. But we will talk about it. Matt Okay,
Ronnie Lott Impact Trophy via the Lodge.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
We're looking into that. It's not it's not set in stone.
Used to be two guests per day. I don't every
day of rival on one. UCLA this hour, USC, next hour,
told you USC this hour, UCLA this hour.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I called the rotary phone that's on the wall at
the lodge. They picked it up. We're working on it
all right, lodge here. And I will say this randomly
and shockingly, despite being called a radio thug by the
owner of the lodge, the lodge started following me on
Twitter just the other day.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Is that right? Hello from the lodge? Like a LinkedIn,
when they start following you, they send you a message.
He sent you a He didn't send me a message,
but it's said following now following the lodge or the
individual that is the owner proprietor of the lodge, the
owner proprietor of the lodge. Is that right? I don't
think there's a difference. Well, you know, I was thinking
(07:52):
maybe your guy Trent runs the social media feeds lodge
and so he starts following you as opposed to the
individual that owns it. That point, I might have to
ask Trent about that. So if it was the owner
the individual, then that would be weird. But if it's
just the actual show. Then that's probably just Trent and
doing the following well fakes, Matt, thanks for blowing the
(08:13):
wind right out of it, Like you want that hatchet buried,
you prefer to to be sharpened. Well, he called us
radio thugs? Did he call us radio thugs or studio gangsters?
Studio thugs? Studio thugs? Like you're not real thugs, your
thugs in the studio. But I get you out here
and I'm gonna kick you in the ball.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, like he's gonna fight me right, fight you right now?
I kick you in the face on a pile. Oh
that's a good one, it really is. That made the
rounds this morning.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
That guy should have been acting so hard, right, what
are you doing pumping your fist? It's a pickleball man
yelling and everybody acting hard. He kicked in the face.
Tired of that. I don't like over the competitive people.
I don't know why, but I visualized that guy as
the lead singer of the band Disturbed. It's like, I
think that guy is the lead singer of Disturbed. The
guy kicked that kicked and he was short, he was ball,
(08:59):
He's a mustley.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
He walked away and then there was somebody like half
asked in front of him, but it never didn't seem
to go anywhere any of that.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I just kicked that guy in the face. You want
some of this, so we is.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
That how I played pick a ball? I'll kick you
in the face, Matt has. Matt has started the show
with some rivalry week talk. That was not our intention.
We'll get to it in the next hour.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Game on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
The hot topic, Matt is Dodger related, and we have
two guests regarding that. Our two guests today our Dodger
related because we are your Dodger Station and the Dodgers
are coming off shocking and wowing the city, sending everybody
reeling into orbit.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
In ecstasy for weeks and weeks.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
With the World Series victory over the New York Yankees,
of all your heroic performances by Walker Buehler, Freddie Freeman,
it was glorious.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Championship for the Ages. And now, Matt, as you know,
the rich could possibly get richer. That's the report. As
Scott Morris and Juan Soto from the Yankees are meeting
with the Dodgers today and they say it's no be yes.
They say that the Dodgers very well could end up
landing Juan Soto that much like they did with Yamamoto
because he was twenty five years old and handed him
(10:09):
three hundred and twenty five million. Because one Soto is
so young that this is the type of player the
Dodgers will spend on that they are not interested in
handing over six hundred million bucks to a thirty year
old because that's the going rate, But because of Soto's
age and his production and the fact that they can
afford it, it's a very realistic possibility that the rich
(10:31):
get richer Andjan Soto was inserted into a lineup. What
about Teo Scar Well, I would spell the end of
TiO Scar And for some that doesn't sit well, Like
I don't want you to go out and buy this guy.
I like the guy we have. I like the guy
we have. I want sunflower seeds thrown in my face.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I like his enthusiasmos Right, there's too many big Dodger
egos already, and one Soto's big ego didn't mix with
Manny Machado's big ego and they couldn't coexist in San Diego.
Why take that chance in the city of.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Angel exactly right. He ain't gonna outshine show hal Tani.
Do you like skin chroducts? Probably he ain't gonna outshine
Freddy Freeman after that postseason.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Not not Juan Soto, not gonna happen. So why does
he want to sign here?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Because he likes Southern California hundreds of millions of dollars,
never wanted to leave. Is that the case he didn't
want to leave the podse?
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I think they say that he really liked southern California.
He likes living here as opposed to the big town.
And that's really his only two options. It's either going
to be Yankees, Mets or Dodgers. He can make it
the Dodgers. He'd prefer that to be the case. That's
the word on the street. Well, that's quite interesting. So
we got to bring on two people to talk about that.
Who are we bringing on? Matt vas kerzhen MLB Network
(11:45):
will join us next, and then Bill Plashki in the
five o'clock hour from the La Times. Man who's got
his finger on the pulse of Los Angeles sporting society
better than any other individual alive. Well's he think? What
does he want? What do we want? What do you want? Matt?
Did you write a story about this today? In my head?
(12:06):
All right, well, what do you want?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Didn't write it down on paper? Tell me what you want,
what you really really want when it comes because you
usually tell you what I want, what I really really want?
You want to want, I want to When it comes
to the Dodgers, Matt, you usually are a lot more
open happening. You're honest about what you want. I don't
see it happening. I think Andrew Friedman values the well
rounded player too much, and Juan Soto's defensive limitations would
(12:32):
preclude him from being signed to some fourteen year, six
hundred and fifty million dollars deal that Scott Boris is
looking for. I just think he's like, no, he's put
a tent on the guy.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Man.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
He's a circus out there, and that doesn't fly. You
already got Otani is your DH You know you can't.
That's going to be the case for the next nine
years at least, So why do it just because he
wants to talk? You got to listen to what he's saying.
I guess the big man with the feathered hair and
the long speech prepared in his pocket. Maybe gave him
(13:04):
the green light. Hey, you want to spend six hundred
million bucks on one sodo? I don't care, do it?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Mark Walter? Yeah, with his hair and his hat both
visible at the same.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Time in the hat visible same time right of the hair,
front of the hair of the hair. I don't want
to tuck it into the hat. I want you to
know I'm not.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Got this starship enterprise hair thing going on under the
bill of the hat. Here it comes, I'm a billionaire,
yet I still wear my hat like this. People are afraid,
like they're afraid to say anything to Lebron to say
what do you do with your hat?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Why you wear your hat like that? And then the
other half want to say, what do you do with
your hair? Way get your hair like that? And neither
We'll make mention of it, and he'll continue to wear
it in that manner.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
All right, Matt, I've taken the liberty of pulling some
instrumental lodge music.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Okay, then we get to the bottom of it.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
There's a lot of lodge talk on the text Doso PMS,
and the lodge is like the jets of the Shark
with way less singing and way more Puzzo measured.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
This says they're the SNL sketch when Norm was the
gang leader. McDonald's like trying to get them fight. Every
time they're about to fight, the guys that freak out
into what are you doing?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
The knife is the best. If I'm in a night five,
I'm not doing a plia. I heard the lodge still
has a cigarette vending machine that even sells clothes cigarettes
and no filter Marlboro RT.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I'd like to get over to the lodge, you know what.
I'd like to find a cigarette machine to jam the thing.
They have one at the tally ran fourteen quarters into
take my chance with that pull and see what comes out.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
No one knows who Ruhelio Chavez is. Yes, they do.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Come on those that know. No, It's like just another
inside joke on the Betros and Money Show. If you know,
you know, it's not common knowledge, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
The lodge doesn't have a pool, but you know that
hot tub is burgan.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Hot tub is polluted.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I like the idea of the lodge being a comfortable
place with the fire going.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
You open the lobby. Roger Lodge is vansive. He's at
the desk welcoming you, free water, free coffee.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It I imagine the lodge looking like from that noir
movie Bad Times at the l Royale. Yes, like that
that hotel that's on the border between Nevada and California.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
It's interesting that's how you visualize it. I visualize it
as the hotel and the Devil's rechex. Oh okay, just like
a roadside dumpy motel where people are murdered and hookers
ply their trade. Maybe we can meet in the middle
at the hotel from the Shining Well, now that talking
about the catskills. Glorious bad things happen there, but a
(16:10):
glorious property. I just like the idea that we're in
touch with the lodge. You like the idea like Scatman.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Carrethers getting on the phone with that little kid, you know,
and the Shining we're in touch with the lodge. For
Ronnie Lott and I've actively path to walk. I'm calling
two football games with the concierge of the lag.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I don't want him to get in trouble. I don't
want him to get in trouble with the Lodge because
of all this, because Ronnie lot well, because every time
we try to check into the lodge, they say your
money's not good. Here the lodge started following me on Twitter.
Look at this, This says the lodge is the only
place you can get an STD after sleeping alone.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Now when you say they have a cigarette machine that
swallows in and san Juan cap Matt, this.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Is who's following you. That's him. That's the follow that
you just got. I believe Roger Lodge. Yes, you are
one of the five thousand Twitter accounts that he follows.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Well, it's still a new follow for me. Okay, don't
try to be like Bill Ryder. You know that happened
to me once. What I was like, Oh cool, what's
that girl Summer's following me? Yeah, something like that one
of those chicks. I think it's the one from the
Driving Me Crazy. CHRISA explains it all that chick. Okay,
you know that little know me looking chick Sarah Michelle Geller. No,
(17:28):
that that's the other one. That's the other one. That's
the one from She's on that one. I was like, ooh,
Sara Michelle Gell Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
I was like ni. I was like, hey, so and
so follows me? How cool deal? I haven't followed to
a Bill rider.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
I was like, f you, I hate you now and
I unfollowed her. But yeah, the little gnome girl from
Driving Me Crazy. Remember that movie time Zone High. It's
a great coming of age. It's got Adrian Granier in
it from Entourage. Nobody, Nobody. All right, I'm deep into
(18:01):
the lodge right now and seeing you're just.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
You're jealous that the Lodge doesn't follow you. That's what
it is.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Incredibly incredibly you're jealous that I could get in season
off season rates in season at the Lodge.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
That's what you're jealous viciously. I can tell Melissa Joan
Hart that's her. There you go, she follows me too
a few bill right. Okay, here's the big question before
we wrap this and get to best ershon. Did you
(18:37):
follow the lodge back? I have to check did you
follow the lodge back? And for shame if you did,
what do you mean? I'm trying to get Rodny Lott
on the show, Mada, I'm working for us. He has
no saying it. Trent Rush is the peer.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Like you said, we don't want to get him in trouble.
We don't want to get him in trouble.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Did you follow him back? Oh, Melissa Jonehart doesn't follow
me anymore? Did you follow him back? Let me look, hey,
Melissa Johnhart didn't follow you anymore? Have you know that
I'm one of the one hundred and forty nine point
three thousand people that she does follow? Damn it still
in with Melissa Joan and I don't even follow you
(19:19):
don't even know that movie. I don't even follow her.
I never followed her back. That's upsetting. I can't find him. Matt?
Is he under Rohelio? Well no, if you just pull up, Oh,
it's just rot your lunch. Oh here he is follows
me and oh and you haven't followed him. Good.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
That's classy by you not to follow him back. But
if I might follow him back, you know why, why
try to get Roddy Latta?
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Why?
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Well we got Matt vas kershen. Yeah, but how does
that help us with Roddy Lott? Well it doesn't. It's
gonna speak to rivalry week and how much it's fallen
off where we've got two guests to talk about the
Dodgers and they won the World Series a month ago.
It's kind of where the things stand right now.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
You know I'm hearing from the lodge right now. Insane,
Please check in. We need the reserves.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Some great Adirondack chairs available for you up front, say
parkeep anybody sitting here? Ain't nobody's said in that chaf
for two weeks? Yeah, make yourself, dare you? Matt maskershon
talking Dodgers signing Juan Soto possibly.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Hey Trent, Matt, Matt, now you used to do a
whole bunch of jobs just like you go around killing
ourselves leading us. Now we're doing great, and it's great.
This is what you got to look forward to, young man. Congratulations.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
All right, let's not wake up the dog. We'll be
right back. Petrosten money A five seventy LA Sports Live
everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. We have got UCLA basketball
tomorrow and the Delamo Fashion Center giving away great prizes,
happy hour specials, and an opportunity for you to go
(21:15):
to the Harbowl on Monday night between the Ravens and
the Chargers. Matt, we got Dodgers on our mind. There's
a lot going on with wat Soto being talked to
and the Scott Borris strings being pulled. So joining us
right now. Our favorite National Baseball Voice. It is not
even close. Oh, he understands Southern California.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Well, he understands Glendale.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
He knows it. Well, that's right, go ahead, I'll turn
it up a little for m LB benwork super host.
He can do play by play, he can be the anchor.
He has information, he has humor. Yeah, strength and charm, dashing,
good looks, ageless shoining us on your Southern California Toyota
(22:09):
neater celebrity hotline. Love that Toyota of Glendale. That's where
I go. Bro, there's a Kababby right down the street.
It is the great fact Matt vast cursion. I'm sorry,
but it's the solo guy. I have some of the
La sports. Let's crack a maths kursion.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
How are you Toyota of Glendale. I'm sure if you
go there with an Ia in it your last name,
they give you the Armenian discount, which is a surcharge
of twenty percent. I'm telling you there is the Armenian discount.
It works in reverse. We all think, oh, let's go
to the Armenian chiropractor. Well, sure, if you want your
(22:50):
insurance charged three times.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
You're gonna get us killed bro Not true, not true
at all, bro Bro. We hear what guy from New
Jersey say on show there's gonna be a white BMW
that t bones me when I'm making my way up
the one thirty four tonight.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
And it's gonna smell of arab.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Oh too good.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Ah, what a time to be alive. We always love
talking to you. Would you do this every off season
so none of this stuff is a surprise to you.
When the rich get richer, it's not like you know,
you guys really toil over who the Reds are gonna
sign it free agency? But when you hear Juan Soto's
talking to the Dodgers, how does it make you feel?
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I'll put it this way. As a Dodger fan, I
would feel invincible. I would feel completely locked in for
the next decade of my fandom. I'd feel very good
about the Raulmandasy jersey hanging in my closet. I'd feel
really good about all of it.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
He was arrested. He screamed in the back that's where
we get it from. He screamed in the back of
the car. I'm a dollar.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
I didn't even know what I was stumbling into with
that one. Swear to you. I think for the rest
of the league, though, I just feel really beaten down because,
I mean, you talk about creating a chasm of a
disparity here between the it's not even the rich and
the poor, or the haves and the have nots, it's
the Dodgers and everybody else. The Mets are the only
(24:38):
team that could enter the conversation with the Dodgers in
terms of that bottomless supply of finance, not even the Yankees,
who are really up against it. They're in a terrible
spot here with this Soto thing because he was important
to them. And if the figure that we're hearing today
is close to being accurate, and we were hearing at
(25:00):
six sixty, then I don't know how the Yankees can
continue to play in that arena. You can't bring one
Soto back at double what you're paying, Aaron Judge. You
just can't beyond the financial inconceivability of it all. What
kind of message is that saying to your guy who
(25:21):
was homegrown, who's a record holder, who's going to be
in Monument Park someday, that the next shiny guy that
comes in and has a big year is going to
double your then record setting contract, which didn't set a
record for very long. So the Yankees are in a
tough spot. The Mets would love nothing more than to
poach the biggest free agent from the Bronx and bring
(25:44):
them over to Queens. And meanwhile the Dodgers are sitting
around thinking we're going to get them if we want them.
And that's all there is to it. And it's my
understanding that they really want them. If I were assigning
like a top three in who's gonna land Wan Soto
at six sixty the Mets, that number is going to
(26:05):
speak loudest. I put the Mets and Dodgers at one
and two, and then the Yankees at third, and then
everybody else is in a no chance bucket. All this
nonsense we hear about, Oh he's taking meetings with Toronto
and Boston and the Phillies don't have a meeting, but
they're interested. That was the latest thing today. That's all
just culling a market. That's all stuff. That's just helping
the agent, not that he needs any help with this.
(26:27):
It's really now the three teams for.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Me, How does just baseball wise, you know, with Otani,
you know, locked in too be in DH for the
next ten years. How does that work with Sodo? Are
we are we kind of missing it on his his
defensive abilities, his limitations, or how would that work for
the next decade when you already got the best hitter
in the game at your DH spot.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
That's a really good point, Mattuh. You know, if short
term see serviceable in right field, I'm not going to
say he's good out there, that's my opinion. They're going
to try to tell you that he's good out there.
You know, he threw a runner out in the first
series of the year in Houston, and then everybody's like,
oh my god, look at what what the pinstripes are
(27:10):
doing to his defensive matrics. Now, no, no, he's he's
not considered a plus defender. And that's about as diplomatically
as I could say that. So you live with it
in the short term and then you hold your nose
in the long term and hope that he hits three
thirty with forty homers every year, because guys can hit
their way out of being bad defenders and still be
considered generational talent. But that DH spot is spoken for
(27:34):
with Otani, and that's another thing. If Otani signed for
seven hundred million, and he pitches and it hits, and
is the most ridiculously perfect player that's ever been created
and the possibly the most talented player that's ever played sport.
You're going to pay Wan Soto close to that? I
don't get the mass. It just doesn't make any sense
to me.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
He has that twitch style, you know, he does all
the weird stuff, you know, a hard look at the
pitchers if they walk them's the act, you know, Hollywoodani
just goes up there and apologizes to everybody.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
He is good TV that shuffle, love him or hate him,
like he's going to help somebody. I don't mean to
be a detractor of Wan Soto. He's going to help somebody.
And the Yankees don't get to the World Series without
him last year. But we're talking about commensurate money with Otani.
The next closest deal in terms of richest in baseball
history after Otani is in the three hundred millions. You're
(28:28):
telling me you're going to skip all the way to
six for Wan Soto. I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
You know what, we don't get Roki Sasaki just because
we have no idea what it is we've just been
told that. It's like you thought Yamamoto was great, Sasaki's
the guy, and.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
We took their word for it. With Yamamoto, we're like, yeah,
let's get him and it worked out. What about Sasaki?
What can you tell us about him? How good is
he is? This projection? Is he already delivered?
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Like? What is this dude?
Speaker 3 (28:56):
No, the word is on him that he is an
unfinished product. He's only twenty three, and I think therein
lies all the intrigue and the interest in his upside.
So this is a guy. This is a guy that's
so young. He grew up idolizing you Darvish who's still
in the middle of his career. He's that much of
(29:16):
a kid. If he was this good in Japan and
he was like you know, look, anybody can google the numbers.
He was pretty dominant there. His high school track record
kind of got him on the tabloids immediately, and then
he became a star from there with the Marines, I
think was his team. If he was that good already
(29:37):
and then he comes here, the thought is he gets
even better, and you lock up a twenty three year
old guy for a long term deal. As opposed to
a Dice, K Matsuzaka, a Yamamoto, guys who wait and
play their full career there before being posted by the club.
It really has to do with getting him at an
(29:58):
earlier expiration date. The Otani came here earlier. If Roki
Sasaki had waited two years, he could come here as
an unqualified free agent and signed for four hundred million
dollars or whatever the numbers are at that point. He
wants to come here and compete. He's going to get
a princely sum certainly down the road, but he's going
to be pretty good, according to everybody I've talked to.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Matt Vaskerzhon a hero, to the people here, to all
of us from the MLB network, do you think the
Dodgers should bring back all the guys that make you
feel good?
Speaker 1 (30:31):
You know, like to Scar and Keik.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Walker, Walker Buehler, old shark face, you know, the guys
that the guys that they were all going to let
go if they didn't win.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
Yeah, it felt like Walker Buehler was going to have
to look elsewhere for employment in August, right because it
just was wobbly. When he came back. I think he's
got a pretty good chance to come back. And Keik
has turned into such a cult hero that he's probably like, look,
there's only four Dodgers that have ever hit more postseason
(31:04):
homers than Kei k a Hernandez, he's a different guy.
In October, tay Oscar was great too. I wouldn't be
surprised if all those guys come back. I wouldn't be
surprised if Taoscar Hernandez is replaced by Juan Soto in
the outfield and or Anthony Santandre, who's a really good
switch hitting free agent. With the Orioles, that Dodgers are
(31:26):
in a position where they can do whatever they want.
And if they want to bring in a glue guy
like uh, like key k to add to the glue
guy like the shortstop that they've got that they've brought
back Rojas, Miguel Rojas, who they love. That's fine, they
could do that, keep them keep him on the phantom
iyel for a few days, send him to triple A, ah,
(31:47):
bring him back up for the fall.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Why not? All right, let's get negative here. It's been fun.
But what the hell is wrong with whoever does the
nominating and Dave Roberts not being up for Manager of
the Year, Like, how were they not? I get it,
They've got Otani and all that, but I mean, Mookie
BET's gone half the year. They lose pretty much their
entire rotational Tani's not pitching and he doesn't even get
(32:11):
to be one of the three finalists. Are we missing
something or are we blind to kind of what really
went on in baseball this year?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
No, I don't think you're missing anything, Matt. I think
the problem there is that award the finalists usually go
or the votes usually go to the guys. Are the
perception around the guy who did the most with the
least so Milwaukee and I think Pat Murphy is gonna
win the award tonight. But Pat Murphy small payroll, lost
(32:40):
his best starting pitcher, lost his biggest hitter in June
for the rest of the year, won back to back
division titles for the first time in franchise history. Mike
Shelton San Diego, he has more to work with, but again,
the guy that comes in as a first year manager
better than expected in San Diego. And for the Mets, Mendoza,
(33:01):
they were dead after the first eight weeks of the
season and people were talking about him being a whiff
as a higher well, from July first on they had
the best record in the sport. So you've got three
candidates who around whom the perception was they did more
with less, and everybody just kind of assumes that since
Dave Roberts has this cachet of stars, it's easy to
(33:21):
manage that group. We know that to be different. I
think this was his best managerial job, and that's really
saying something for a guy who's been as successful as
he has. He had to dance well in the postseason
for them to win a World Series. And I get
that this is a regular season award, but I think
in the minds of the voters there were three guys
who had to work harder at it given their roster limitations.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Well, we love.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Him, the great Matt Vaskerzion, a hero to all of
us baseball information always at a premium there and very
smoothly and I would say comfortably delivered.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Makes you feel like you're wins of the Rose Bowl
this weekend. Guys who wins at the Rose Bull, you know,
as a curious onlooker.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Well, certainly not the uh that everybody loses is what
it feels like. Got the box office.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
There not the Southern California football public.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
I mean granted, I played in a few of these
that were very meaningless and they meant everything to me.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
But uh yeah, it just feels like one of those years.
If a tree falls in the forest, We'll let you
know if it makes us sound.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
I got it, got it?
Speaker 1 (34:26):
There he goes, mad Vest Cursion, take that to the
coffee machine.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
We'll see what happens with Soto. If Sodo signs with
the Dodgers, everybody's gonna leave and write an article about that.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
That's true. Matt Vest Cursion, the best on the Petros.
Somebody Show. We'll be back with the Textos Rodeo round it,
I Show some Money five seventy el A Sports Live
everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. A huge thank you to
(34:55):
Madvest Cursion MLB Network. The Dodgers are meeting with Soto.
You heard what he said, Mets Dodgers one in one A.
You know how.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Mondesy got Jack for that DUI doing donuts and a ram. Well,
it's not like he was just out, you know, trying
to get home. Yeah, weaving, fading a little bit. I'm
gonna show off. I gotta can I'm a dower. Thank
you to Matt Beskers, really nice talking to him. Great
(35:25):
guy and still to come Bill Plashki. I mean, we
got a lot to get into with Bill obviously, the
Dodgers and Juan Soto and this meeting and Bronnie. I
don't know what to say about that, but you know, Bronnie,
then you got a rivalry week.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
You know what I'm tired of being. You know, I'm
just saying, like all the things that I want to
talk to Bill about, it's not just Dodgers. For those
that are like, hey, I get it, we won the
World Series. You're gonna sign a guy for six hundred
million bucks. I want to say, Matt, We'll get more
in there with Bill beyond the Dodge just because of
the charge are big right now. Aaron Rodgers sucks. I
have lamented rival rivalry week except for saying it. I
(36:08):
hate saying.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Derek Carr is on his last starting job back the
next year. Just all of these things are happened. The
Chiefs just lost. All of the planets for Matt Smith
are a lined the big swell over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Six and one and one score games. It had to
happen eventually. I mean it does. Magic had to run out.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
It doesn't mean that you could just sit here in
poop mouth. I don't want the only thing that I'm
an expert on that no one cares about anymore.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
I don't want to poop much. I'm tired of it, mad,
I'm tired of the tired of the putdowns. Want it
to be great. I'm tired of the putdowns. It's not
gonna be great, but I wrote a story about it.
I want to Doldo to join us. He is. He's
one of the few Paul Hackett to join us.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Paul's not quite there as he used to be. But
you know, some of the our coaches aren't as cogent
as they were back in the day.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
About Pete Carroll, what's he doing. Let's get Pete back.
I'll never come back with your dad. You're teaching a
class for like nineteen kids. Let's go. I burned back
on the show. I burned a lot of bridges. Doesn't
mean they can't be rebuilt. You know, they got updated materials,
that trek stuff. It's not wood, it's like that plastic
wood hybrid. Those bridges last forever. Time for some textosos
(37:16):
line brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
We make it easy.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Hey, p I've heard you can get a primo rate
at the Lodge during the Angels offseason, but you have
to continuously feed the old school vibrating bed quarters all
night long. Also, red Bum has been known to mysteriously
appear on the Dirty bathroom mirror along with a grinning,
naked and Anthony red Dome. Hey, no hotel is perfect,
(37:46):
Red Bomb, red Bumb. I want to stay at the
Red Bomb, red Bum. I want to start it. I
want to stay at the shot I don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
It's this ghostly bum that kept crapping outside my door.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Suddenly the elevator was flooded with cheap beer. This is
now the pickleball Show of record. Hey, I'm down with
the sickness we all saw. If you didn't see, there's
a pickleball clip.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Like.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
My wife likes pick like most. My wife kind of
got into pickleball. And then you know, we would go
and we would go to the desert and they have courts,
you know, at the family compound in the Sunrise Country Club,
and we go over there and right with the kids
and stuff, and you see like there's some adults and
they're like god, you know, like really getting after it,
(38:36):
and like this is like one of those type of
games where the people are like they really want to win.
And the guy wins and he's like and then he
gets kicked in the face.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Yeah, he like goes to high five the guy or something.
He slaps his racket and then goes to pick it up,
and as he picks it up, the guy's like, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
He kicks him in the kicks him in the face
to where the guy crumples down but his hat goes flying.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Great moment in pick and I think it's like a
sanctioned team pickleball because the one team had on matching
outfits kind of add on the pink shirts. Yeah, like hey,
we might be wearing pink, but we'll kick you in
the face, right Okay, Like literally, we'll kick you in
the face even though we wear pink. Just because I'm
a gay guy doesn't beat. I can't kick you, hast,
I will take you in the face.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
Do you think Matt screams out suck when he's either
on the can or surfing or punching burnout beach obos
going down Electric Avenue like a cock. Suck the twoy
toy polow two sack call from Sunday Night Football.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
It's a great call. I think it's the first time
I've ever said sack like that. Suck.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
No twin ballsack, It's not a twin ballsack. Money asked
you if you followed the lodge in the.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Did you order the code red voice? Why did he
do that? Yeah, you know, I follow the lodge. If
I want tell me who I can hang out with. Say,
I'm not telling you. I asked a question. Hey, I
like Fernando. He called you a studio thug.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
He's he's a He's this fun guy and he's nice
and he knows how to treat a woman.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
I like Roger. He takes me out by having someone's
hand all over your ass.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Hey, fool, I live in Pomona and the bums here
catch those peacocks and straight barber to him in the parks.
That's I know, I know they do that. He's lemon
the good meat good with a lemon an annoying noise
emanating from a source that Kates can't call the cops on.
You know that full shoots parrots. You think Kates has
(40:44):
ever shot a parrot.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
No, I don't think he has. I think he dreams
about it and then he wakes up and he cleans
his gun and he thinks about it. But then he
just goes to the range and unloads all that into
nothing but targets. There's a warm gun. Bang bang, shoot, shoot,
says man. One day. One day, guy's going to kick
(41:08):
my door and then he's going to try to rob
this place. It's going to be my time to shot.
It's going to be my time to shot. You know.
There was a guy who got my fingerprint gun saved.
All I gotta do is put my thumb on it,
pops open. It's loaded and ready to go.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
There's a guy who apparently spent some time in Alcatraz
and some other places who came back to San Pedro
after working for my great grandfather. Came back to San
Pedro after working, uh doing it, doing some hard time,
some hard times, that stony lonesome, and came home to
San Pedro and saw the name of his employer on
a big restaurant on sixth and Center and walked right in.
(41:44):
They called him the Big Man. He had a Muslim
name that I can't recall right now, but he became
a charge of the family, you know, for the rest
of his life. And within five days of being home,
maybe maybe years, maybe a couple of years, but it
was like right when he got home or around that time,
two men came into his house and he shot them
(42:05):
both through the head, just like Kates would, Just like
he would you intruders down at San Pedro.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Allow me the opportunity. I don't know why my father,
I don't know why. But the next day, you know,
after he murdered these men or you know, defended himself,
killed them whever I killed him, we were sitting at
Traine's Majestic in Sampedo now a green Onion, and I
don't know why. My dad thought it was a valuable lesson,
but you know, he was me and my older brother
and we're like six sitting with big Man. Big Man
(42:32):
was probably like a six seven foot black guy, and uh,
my dad said, you know, tell them what you did.
You're like, well, these man came in and I shot
them bold. You know, he told the story and then
he goes, you tell the boys what you would do
to somebody if they messed with the boys, or as
(42:53):
the family, and he goes track him down, and I
brought him away and he put his fist on.
Speaker 2 (42:59):
The He hit his fist on the table and on
the mazzarella marinera flew off the table, and my dad's
Amstell light you know, went down, rolling off the table.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
I was like, why did I have to have that?
That's immediately what I thought.
Speaker 2 (43:15):
When I thought Tim kats in the doorway, waiting for
the door to crack, I thought of the big Man
sitting there.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
I'm gonna blow him away.
Speaker 2 (43:21):
I mean, I took calls from the Big Man my
whole life till he died. And now his ashes are
literally in a box on my dad's desk, kind of box,
a metal box with his name on there.
Speaker 1 (43:34):
Ornate or no, just very plain, and.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
It is our most modestly priced earned I do remember
the Yeah, he served his time. He paid his death
to society with his common law wife, Missus Hampton, wonderful.
Oftentimes the Big Man would call from the A one
market in sam Pedro's Italian place is screaming at its
(44:00):
on the phone. Big Man would trying to get a
ham on the family charge, which of course we were
happy to We'd be happy to, but you know I
need a ham. And then you know you gotta get
this guy a helm of what bed like eight years old. Yeah,
I get the ham.
Speaker 1 (44:17):
Let him have it, let him, let him have it.
Speaker 2 (44:22):

can believe it. Syphilitic, yeah,
