I don't know, we'll take a selfie, day 1 down from day 1 maybe, I don't know,
oh, it is a great song right here, it is also good to have you in the same room again,
good to be home, as we did the via satellite war class night, last week, we had a few hiccups,
but we got them fixed, and it was a great experiment, I thought I went really well,
everybody enjoyed it that I talked to, we are your one stop shop for all things sports,
pop culture, and pro wrestling, have been for a year now, yes, wow,
it's like Chad says the mothership has landed again, it's something about, call it the friendly confines,
call it whatever you want, being back in studio just feels good,
I literally just got back from my vacation, but three hours ago,
and I'm feeling good, and I'm ready to do this thing, you ready to roll?
I sure am, let's do this, we start out with corrections,
unfortunately I did not have a chance to listen to last week's show,
so I'm going to defer to you, sir, you know, everything you heard,
you know, not offered a debate with the Joe Namus, that my first of interest last week,
which I see you've got one, that I've got a ton of opinions about this week,
I thought you liked that this week, this is probably one of my nemesis,
nemesis?
Yes, in the world of Cody Comics, this is one of my guys,
but no, I didn't, he's spelled the comics for the K,
because you're streamed, and hey, if you find something, please email one of us,
I am Cody at the clubhouse with robincoady.com,
I want to apologize though, I've heard apology,
been slacking on the, on the you stream on the Facebook,
on the Twitter on the Facebook, I've been, this last week has been fast and furious,
but we're going to get back on the bike and ride with that this week,
we don't have any corrections, I do want to send a couple of shout outs if I may.
Absolutely, first of all, I want to say, I know they're not listening right now,
because they're unpacking a 24 foot moving truck,
feeling Shannon and Shannon's parents and family,
and their lovely daughters had a great time with them this weekend,
drove back out here with them, had the big road trip,
want to thank them for a great time,
want to thank my best friend in the whole world Rico,
who listens to show from time to time,
they put me up at their house for a few days,
Julie put me up at her parents' house for a few days while I was down there,
and to all my friends Brian, who's a listener to the show very faithfully,
had his birthday on Thursday,
and to everybody that I got to see,
there'll be a blog post later this week of me giving individual thanks,
but thanks to everybody who made the Abamination Tour 2011,
a rousing, rousing success,
and although the well-wishers from summer band 38,
it was a great day, we had a great time.
Only thing that would have made it better is that the lovely and talented Mrs. Irvin were with Riffing,
but I'll be seeing her shortly, so there's that.
That being said, it's time to dive right into the deep end of the pool.
I do like that song a lot.
We've used it every week for like 48 weeks, and I love that song.
Is that song more of a wake-up call than just,
I love that song.
You need one screen, it's five hour energy.
And that song is where I was kind of moving on from Metallica,
but that's a great song by Metallica.
One of my personal favorite.
Oh, I love it.
Their entire catalog.
Personally, am I an opinion.
You know, it's time to talk NASCAR.
It is.
And as we all, if you did listen to the show last week,
you do remember this was an inaugural race in Spartacan Tucky,
as the Quaker State 400 guy underway,
and buddy, it had its problems.
Most of the fans couldn't get into the venue
because traffic was so bad outside of the track.
Really?
Tucky Speedway's parent company Speedway Motorsports
Incorporated was also owned Charlotte
and our own Texas Motor Speedway here in the DFW Metroplex.
There's some problems there.
I think it literally Texas Motor Speedway was just a gridlock nightmare
when they first opened it.
When they first opened, I went to rock fest there.
There were people leaving the north side of town
and it took them eight hours to go an hour.
But let me ask you this because again,
for those of you listening, maybe for the first time,
I, Rob, am the NASCAR dumb guy.
I don't understand a lot about NASCAR.
Cody fills in the gaps for me.
He does so very well.
Is this something that's seen a lot in new tracks?
Or is this just kind of a phenomenon for this company?
Well, it shouldn't be a phenomenon in Kentucky
because they've hosted on the...
I'm going to call it the Bush series
because they did host the Bush series.
They've hosted craftsmen, truck races there before.
They've hosted cart races, indie races,
and they always drew great crowds.
So it's like a lot of people going to a race in Sparta, Kentucky
was that big of a deal.
SMI tracks will hold six more cut races this season,
including New Hampshire, which is this Sunday, New Hampshire.
Okay.
Bristol Motor Speedway, Texas Motor Speedway,
and Atlanta Motor Speedway.
So like us, that group owns a lot of tracks
in NASCAR.
So Kentucky, listen to this.
The Kentucky Senate President David Williams said,
I sympathized with the great NASCAR fans who didn't get in.
Because hell, I was one of them.
Wow.
Hello.
So I mean, this thing was pretty widespread.
They've offered fans free tickets to next year's event.
Don't know where you're going to be sitting at.
But they have offered some sort of a thing.
Get a T-shirt, get a prize pack.
Maybe some meat and Greek type things.
But Kyle Busch, who I believe will be the Dell Earnhardt
of this generation, don't it out there.
Don't it out there.
I think he's, he's a senior.
It's Crash.
It's a senior.
It's either Crash.
He's like Dell Earnhardt.
Dell Earnhardt had three choices.
Crash, win, or blow the engine.
That was, that was how he race.
Okay.
Kyle Busch, same guy.
But Kyle Busch does win your inaugural race at Kentucky,
the Quaker State 400.
He's followed by David Ruderman,
Jimmy Johnson, Ryan Newman, Carl Edwards, Matt Kenseth,
Brad Kalslowski, David Reagan, Kurt Busch, and Jeff Gordon,
who's kind of starting to make one of them Jeff Gordon type runs
here late in the season.
A name you noticed I did not mention the top 10
was when Dell Earnhardt did it.
That was going to be my next question.
As he continues to skid, he finished 30th.
Oh wow.
But at least he finished.
He finished.
And I don't know.
You know, I'm a, I'm a, I like Dell Jr.
A lot of fans.
I know a lot.
He's most popular driver every single year
that we seem to, to do this voting.
The guy has to win a race.
It's been almost 125 races.
This is Dylan Hart Jr.'s won a sprint cup race.
I think it's time for maybe him to, to win a race.
In my opinion.
I think I don't think you're in the minority in that.
Yes, sir.
And I see pictures of him.
You know, he, Danny Capatric does race for
Motorsports in the bush.
I believe they're one in the same.
Young guys, great marketers, horrible race car drivers.
Debate it.
I like Dell Jr.
You've been a fan of this for many, many years.
It's a gene skipped a year.
It's a good generation.
The guy that owns Richard Childish racing,
obviously Richard Childish, horrible race car driver,
brilliant businessman.
I think Dylan Hart Jr.'s future in NASCAR
is going to be a car owner, a businessman.
Well, that redeemed his, his legacy though.
If he's able to do that.
It could.
But next week, we do.
Oh, that's a great one.
We do go to Loudon, New Hampshire,
as a New Hampshire motor speedway.
Oh, why do you call it Loudon, New Hampshire?
That's just the same with the city.
Oh, yeah.
Loudon, New Hampshire.
There's something like that.
Track was in it.
And, you know, it's a decent race.
I'm saying concrete track.
Nothing really spectacular about Kentucky
or Loudon motors at, I mean, New Hampshire Motor Speedway
and Loudon, New Hampshire.
TNT 12 noon central here in the central time zone,
1 o'clock east on the east coast of the country.
And that leads us to the cup standings,
as we set, not Kyle Busch.
Kyle Busch, now your leader in the Sprint's Cup standings,
followed by Carl Edwards, Kevin Harbick,
Kurt Busch, Jimmy Johnson, Matt Kiddler, Jeff Gordon.
Boy, Dell Jr.'s has gone from third to eighth in three races.
Wow.
I think if you're on the 80-18,
Dell Jr. is in major panic mode right now.
Freefall.
Freefall.
We're starting to see the clunks in Dylan Hart Jr.'s
deal right now.
76 points back of the leader, Kyle Busch.
Not a lot of points, though.
It's pretty neck and neck.
Ryan Newman and ninth, Denny Hamon at 10th.
Tony Stewart at 11th.
And now your lucky dog, your last place as Clint Boyer,
is the 12th driver in the Sprint Cup standings,
which means if the chase started today,
he was going to get in.
So no, you care my father to be part of today?
No, he is now third.
He's falling out of the chase.
Oh, no, I can't have that.
But that is NASCAR taught once again,
loud new Hampshire next week, 12 Central.
As we go to, in my opinion,
and anybody toss up race,
I keep my eyes on Kevin Harvick.
I'm going to fill that out there.
Kevin Harvick.
I picked Kevin Harvick to win the whole thing,
beginning of the year.
I'm going to ride the horse until...
So you think Kevin Harvick brings an end to the
era of Jimmy Johnson?
Until we get to homestead Miami,
and he's not winning it.
I'm going to stick with Kevin Harvick.
Or at least within striking.
Exactly.
So, and that is NASCAR.
You are listening to the season premiere.

Or maybe about some place
we're going to be in five days, Cody.
Yeah, as we go back to Fox and Halm,
July 17th for WWE Money and the Money.
I'm shaping up to be a decent little card.
But either way, we have a lot of fun.
$3.3 bucks gets you in the door at this thing.
That saves you a ton of money,
which you would pay on...
Pay per view.
Pay per view.
60 bucks in HD.
Or you could just give me 60 bucks.
And I'll tell you what happened.
Yeah, but come out there and join us.
Pre-show does start at 6 p.m.
We will be live from 6 to 7.
We will break down the card.
Maybe talk about some money in the bank's past.
It started out as a WrestleMania match
on the WrestleMania Card.
So join us there.
Great food.
Fox and Halm is located at Central
in Campbell Road, 75 in Campbell Road.
In Richardson, Texas, I'm sure you can map quests down.
If you go to our website, you can click the link
and it'll take you to their website,
which will give you a map to the location.
So please join us live Sunday.
6 to probably little after 10.
We will be live at Fox and Halm.
And if you're saying to yourself, Rob,
I've got other games on.
I don't want to miss those.
And watch the pay-per-view.
You can do that there.
There's a ton of TVs in the room.
And great grub.
Oh, the food is so good.
Great food.
Absolutely.
We try to sample something different every time we go in there
so we can bring you a report.
Yes, absolutely.
But it always comes back to the soft pretzels.
Yeah, they're great.
It always does.
Absolutely.
We are going to move on.
We're going to combine two of our pop culture segments tonight.
As we start with a little bit of music news.
Chats, we have the game on the studio.
Absolutely.
When we record the pilot episode,
we have the all-star game on.
We have to do that.
Now, shame.
Marlins.
I got a story that I got a story of the Marlins here later on tonight.
Okay, okay.
Come only a couple of headlines from a movie standpoint this week.
This first story.
Did you read anything about this?
I read about this last night.
As I was in...
Yeah, I saw that.
...and Mississippi.
She is hotter than a $2 pistol, right?
Thank you.
The very hot Miele Kunis.
Oh, whom you know from that 70s show.
Also, Meg on Family Guy.
Looks nothing like her character on the show.
And from the upcoming Friends with Benefits.
She accepts an invitation from Sergeant Scott Moore
to attend the Marine Corps Ball with him November 18th
in Greenville, North Carolina.
He did a little deal on YouTube where he asked her to accompany him to the Marine Corps Ball.
He is currently stationed with the third battalion's second Marines in...
Oh, come, I'm going to butcher this.
I know I am.
And I apologize in advance for any of our listeners over there.
Musa Kalein Afghanistan.
Guilty?
He's not.
Oh, oh, no.
He's one of us.
He's not.
The city's guilty.
Oh, Lord.
But a Fox affiliate in L.A.
She was doing the right carpet thing for Friends with Benefits.
And the Fox Entertainment reporter asked her if she'd seen this thing.
She'd never even heard of it.
Timberlite gets winded this thing, who's in the movie with her.
Shows it to her on YouTube and says,
You need to do this for your country.
And she said, You know what?
I'm in.
So congratulations, Sergeant Scott Moore.
You are now in the Living the Dream Club.
Yes.
Chad says, Yep, she's absolutely.
She's a confessed trekkie.
And Seth Green claims that when they're not working on Family Guy,
she's in the corner playing Gears of War and talking trash to people.
That's cool.
Like, this is always like her.
I think she's definitely a looker.
You can definitely say that, sir.
Spike Lee.
Apparently, because we need this,
is directing a remake of the Japanese film Old Boy.
Really?
I mean, do I, I must say that every week.
Really?
Can we leave Old Boy alone?
Like we've said before.
It's just, it's Hollywood running out of ideas.
I just don't buy your theory of what shut down for three years.
That might crumble the economy.
But, you know, whatever.
Movie new releases this week, there are only two of note.
And when you look at the list of these two films,
you kind of go,
why would I release both of these movies the same day?
Well, one of them is trying to reconnect with generation.
The other one is, is ending a, ending a bit.
First up, and the, and the one really that's gonna,
grab all your headwinds this weekend,
the end is come.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two debuts this Friday
at a local cinema near you.
95% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Um, I mean, I figured this is probably not a,
is this on your radar in your house?
At all.
None of them.
None of them.
I haven't seen any.
I've never watched one of the movies.
I've never read one of the books.
So, but I bet you it does a ton of money.
Yeah.
I bet you it does a ton of money.
Oh, absolutely.
And then also releasing this Friday is Disney's,
I don't know if it's just a rebooter,
if it's just another one,
a new animated Winnie the Pooh film.
And, um, we never, you know,
that's just something to me
trying to reconnect with the generation in my opinion.
But you've also got,
if you're a parent,
and you've got kids,
you know, some that are teenagers and some that are level,
do you have to double dip this weekend?
I don't know.
I just think this is kind of a weird combination of films.
You know, I don't know if it's one of those weekends,
but Winnie the Pooh, you know,
I can, there's a lot of kids that,
there's some people that don't even know who Winnie the Pooh is
in this generation of kids.
I bet it's sad.
You know, I mean, it's just,
it's one of those things.
For Robin, the hundred-acre wood.
I always liked, uh,
E-Or.
E-Or.
Hello.
Hey, Robinson.
We'll be talking about him later, I know.
DVD and Blu-ray New Releases this week,
as we prepare for the final season of Entourage,
that premieres, I believe,
next week or the week after.
Entourage season six,
available on Blu-ray and DVD today.
Also,
the Matthew McConaughey vehicle,
the Lincoln lawyer,
that I swear,
I am, I am planning on seeing this Lincoln lawyer.
I am planning on probably doing it on,
on, uh, on direct TV, uh,
in demand or whatever the cinema,
whatever it's called now.
I, I think this is a,
it can, now that should be,
Matthew McConaughey plane in attorney.
It's like we've seen that before.
Uh-uh.
You know there's a great impersonation to him.
Matt Damon.
Yeah.
I also, um,
the great Trace Atkins makes a little run for this thing.
That's right, that's right.
You are correct.
Uh, by the way, uh,
we need to poo 75% online.
Okay, mate.
It works.
Also this week, in Sidious,
this is the movie about the parents who have the kid,
the kids kind of weird,
and demons are chasing them,
or something of its ilk.
67%, which is, you know,
1% above,
maybe where it should be,
in this film.
Uh, also the Johnny Depp animated feature,
Rango, which apparently you can go to the website
and get a coupon for, like,
10 bucks off,
if you want to purchase this thing.
It's like, one lizard need to be on television.
That was a Budweiser lizards.
Bud.
No, that's the best frog.
The lady?
Those frogs?
Yeah.
I like that.
I saw this and I was like,
whoa, creepy.
I might check it out if I'm bored.
I will excited you this.
And we're going to do a little movies I watched while I was,
on my vacation here in a minute.
And then the Arthur remake,
that is the ban of Chad's existence.
Why did it,
but here's the deal with the Arthur remake.
Why did it need to be remade?
I don't, I don't, I'm suddenly more genius.
This clown,
Russell Brand,
who I'm reading,
Russell already living separately from the Katy Perry.
Yes, Russell Brand is not funny.
He's not funny.
Some of his stuff is.
Funny.
Katy, you're a good Christian woman.
Come on.
Well, come on.
She's a woman.
She doesn't count.
Did they had one of them weird Hindu weddings?
Or, does it really?
Okay, let me make sure.
Let me rewind 20 seconds.
You just called her a good Christian woman,
and since she had ever Hindu wedding.
I think he suckered her into some Hindu wedding.
Oh, okay.
Or so I'll rewind it.
I'll rewind it.
Yeah, I'll read that.
So we've really got to avoid the tabloids,
as you're checking out.
Last weekly lot, too.
I am two for six in movies.
I watched versus movies I rented,
although it's on my vacation.
But the two I watched,
very, very good.
I watched Cedar Rapids,
with Ed Helms,
plays a small town guy
that goes to a big insurance convention.
It was expecting it to be funnier,
but it had a lot more heart than I was expecting.
Huh!
And then I saw a little opus
called Hall Pass.
And I saw it.
Do you like it?
Genius.
Yeah, I like it.
There's a couple of scenes where
if you didn't know the Fairly Brothers directed it,
the scene in the hotel bathroom.
Yes.
Didn't you knew the Fairly-
I'm not going to say what happens
because if you haven't seen it,
a movie crew will probably be renting that again
very soon.
So those of you that haven't seen it can,
it was amazing.
I'm ready for this next story.
Are you really?
Yes.
I want to talk a little bit about this.
Well!
Actually, I'm going to have to,
before we do that,
we have this.
Whatever you hear, that noise.
Now this,
if this is what I'm thinking,
this is what we just saw.
Early this morning.
Well, I just saw the chat room.
Okay, this was,
this was almost late last night.
I've been on the road all day.
I've been up to five,
been on the road to seven.
I don't know how I'm breaking.
Well, I didn't have on the run chat.
So,
we have a celebrity death.
Sure would,
Schwartz, if I say that correctly,
passes away at the age of 94.
For those of you that do not know who he is,
he brought you a couple of shows
I like to call Gilligan's Island
and the Brady Bunch.
This guy pretty much own sitcoms
in the late 60s, early 70s.
So, to me, this is a significant death.
You?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I don't know if I could,
I don't know if anybody could pick him out of a lineup.
But, yeah.
He's the old guy.
Yeah.
But the guy had a lot of influence
in the television industry.
He will be missed.
I will say that.
So,
now let's get on to the,
the story that's making Cody pace back and forth
in the studio and anticipation of talking about.
This is close as I could get for you, sir.
Buddy, we'll shut this show down.
That was packed or souped.
Whoo!
If you have not been watching anything on TNT as of late,
I believe they debuted this trailer
during this week's episode of Falling Skies on Sunday.
We had a first look at a series, I believe,
that TNT is going to roll out next summer.
We're bringing back Dallas.
You know, you know, don't do a movie.
If this fails, I believe this could be something like a Wonder Woman.
If this fails, don't do a movie.
Great idea.
Well, I think you're doing this.
You have to abandon the film.
Yeah.
If Larry Hagman wasn't involved, I wouldn't...
Well, you got Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy,
and Linda Gray.
It's all three of them are in this.
I'd kind of...
You know, this is one of those things that I hope these...
It kind of sounds like these are these three people who,
if you don't know, of course, J.R.
doing Larry Hagman, Bobby Ewing, Patrick Duffy,
and then Sue Ellen who played J.R.'s wife as Linda Gray.
Are these going to be regular cast people that are...
From what I could...
I went to Entertainment Weekly's website,
EW.com last night, and I watched this thing.
It's a little over a minute long,
so give yourself a minute after the show and watch this.
And we'd love to know what you think.
It's kind of weird for me,
because I've never really watched enough
of the original series to be able to say,
but you've lived in this area your whole life.
Yeah.
If you ever visit Dallas,
there's a little place,
and you know, at that thing,
Dallas generations getting older,
that remember that.
But you can go about...
I'm going to say it's about 25 miles east of Dallas,
and actually see the actual working South Fork Ranch.
It's still in Murphy.
Up there in the city of Murphy?
Yes.
I'll watch it.
I'll record it and watch it and see it.
I don't know.
They did a bunch of TV movies in the late and mid-90s
that were okay.
But to me, J.R. Ewing is still the catalyst of that show.
Without him, without Larry Hagman,
you have no show.
It intrigues me and also worries me
that it does have the Jordana Brewster in it,
who is the spare female of the Fast and Furious movies,
although hot,
but just not really acting up a storm, if you will.
We'll see.
So we'll see how that works.
Also, ABC Family renews the Melissa Joan Hart,
Joey Lawrence Vehicle, Melissa, and Joey.
So there's that...
That ABC Family, man.
They will wheel out some stuff that just...
We've got one of them coming out about a girl
who apparently finds out she's a cat
and has nine lives.
And we've got another show about two kids
that were switched to birth and one of them's deaf.
And they do that...
Secret Life of the American Teenager Show.
Now, they're the only station
that shows the original,
the Christmas stuff, really, anymore.
I like the new Christmas stuff.
CBS does their root off and stuff,
but they'll show like...
Santa Claus has come to town.
The great heatmizer and coldmizer.
ABC Family kind of rolls that kind of stuff out.
And they also do a big deal of Halloween too.
So there's that.
Let's move on to a little stick puck, shall we?
This is first story to kick this off.
And maybe he's listening.
I know some of mine that is.
Or maybe he's a man sitting next to the man sitting next to the man sitting next to the man sitting next to the man.
Former Dallas star,
and it hurts me to say the rest is,
and former Detroit Red Wing Mike Madonna.
Hall of Famer.
Oh, absolutely.
It's expected to make a decision in two or three weeks
whether he'll return to hockey for his 22nd season.
Or retire.
I know that Dallas,
and if you're a stars fan,
you hated to see Mikey Mo go.
Absolutely.
It was time.
It was time.
I think the thing with with Madonna is,
in my opinion,
he's top five American hockey players of all times.
In my opinion.
You know, start out Minnesota.
He played 20 years for the Minnesota North Star slash Dallas stars.
That's a long time in any sport in one town.
Of course, one to Stanley Cup in 1999.
If I'm Mike Madonna,
I hang it up.
Mike Madonna also considered a scratch golfer.
This quote in the Dallas Morning News for Wednesday.
I'm from Detroit,
so I'm thrilled.
If I do retire,
to retire as a Red Wing.
That's like a hot.
Yeah, that's a hot dagger in the heart of a Dallas star.
Didn't you win a ring here?
Yeah, I just very strange for him to say that.
I think there's still some,
some animosity between him and Tom Hicks
and being the release of him.
And I just,
that bridge has gotten to be fixed,
because eventually the Dallas stars will hang the number nine
from the rafters in the American Airlines Center.
I agree.
I'll agree.
There's no doubt about mine.
Also, let's begin Dallas, Dallas stars.
Chuck Greenberg, of course,
who helped Nolan Ryan and his group acquire the Texas Rangers,
has known his hat in the ring to purchase the Dallas stars.
He has done a group.
It's him and two other guys.
One guy from New York,
one guy from Chicago.
They're both considered hockey guys.
But he has,
let me take some,
the Dallas stars are in mega, mega, mega debt.
This is a Rangers,
anything Tom Hicks touched
that professional sports is in the tank.
Oh, I agree.
So Chuck Greenberg,
who has ties to work with Tom Hicks before,
he is rumored to be your front runner
to purchase the Dallas stars.
Well, I mean,
the Rangers did.
I think so.
I don't want to see Dallas lose the stars,
but let me tell you something, folks,
they have to start making money
or to take an old hip hop saying,
if you don't make money,
it'll make sense.
You know what I'm saying?
And that's it.
The Detroit Red Wings,
if we have talked on this,
you know the speaking wish before we go in for them,
before I forget about this,
because we're talking about Detroit.
They told you.
You know how we always talk about
the Motor City machine guns in TNA,
and they do the pointing at the palm.
I found out what that was on vacation.
What's that mean?
Because the minutes you get in this shape like a hand,
they're pointing to Detroit on the hand.
I was like,
that's what that means.
I want to think Rico's wife Lindsey
for telling me about that,
because she's from up there.
That's cool.
Sorry about that.
We're talking about realignment,
and we're talking about different things.
We're talking about the Winnipeg Jets going to be
in the Southwestern Division.
Yeah, the Winnipeg Jets.
Well, now there is some rumors
that the Detroit Red Wings and the Columbus Blue Jackets
will be moved to the Eastern Conference.
On board with this.
They will move the Western Conference completely out.
I think also the Dallas-Stars wanting to move
out of the Pacific Division.
The Southwestern?
Yes.
The NHL is going to go through a radical realignment as far as...
I'm on board with this.
Let's mix it up.
I think Chicago also will be headed to the Eastern Conference.
As well.
Well, they should be.
You're in the Eastern part of the country.
I don't care if they call you the Western or the East.
It sounds like a hockey unlike, in my opinion,
the NFL in Dallas, not the NFL in Major League Baseball,
has not seemed to get it right.
I understand we like Dallas in the NFC East.
I don't belong there.
This is whatever.
Yeah, that's weird for you.
NFC South.
In my opinion.
Or just rename the Division.
Yes, sir.
But I could see, you know, Dallas, the Star's main complaint is,
we still play half our schedule in the West Coast.
Yeah?
The choice main deal is, we play half our schedule in the West Coast.
So, looks like, don't be shocked if, as we get closer to that puck drops,
opening night, where you see a lot of teams who didn't used to be here,
but now they're here, and now they're doing this with this guy.
Because I need more confusion in my life.
Yeah, I mean, Aaron.
But I think it makes sense for the NHL.
They're trying to grow that game.
NHL Commissioner Gary Betman, in my opinion,
until Gidele gets this mess figured out.
Right now, he's the only, them in Major League Baseball,
which I hate to see.
But I think Gary Betman, in my opinion right now,
is the best commissioner in all sports.
You're not going to hear me devate you, because his, his, his,
his sports still is making money.
Yeah, we took over the NHL.
They were all most, where they were getting ready to close the doors
on the National Hockey League in North America.
It's a profitable league, and I think he's probably going,
East Coast fans go to bed at 10 o'clock.
East Coast?
Rather, while the Red Wings on in San Jose,
and the puck drops at nine.
Yeah?
I mean, come on.
And that's NHL talk, because they are, of course,
in their off season.
Yeah.
So off season, not much going on.
But as shortest off season, National Hockey League,
is the, the Bruins will defend that Stanley Cup before they even
realized they had it.
It'll be defended.
You will be.
John's beloved.
Yeah.
So wait for that T-shirt for you to wear.
I haven't, uh, haven't seen that.
Let's get that squared away on, son.
Yeah, we haven't.
Get that squared away.
We haven't hooked up.
We haven't hooked it up.
He went in there that Sunday after we made that.
No, he was not.
But he's, he told me he has every intentions.
He in film.
They both be joining us.
Hopefully on Sunday.
That's good.
Good.
I just can't explain how good a good time we had in that road trip.
Let's go on to the other aspect that we haven't covered
that this show does.
You are listening live.
Hopefully.
To the closest Robin Cody right here in Ustream.
Every Tuesday night, eight on the East Coast, five on the West Coast.
We try to make you say, hey.
Yes.
Hey, it's better than it has to be.
And if you come up to us and you tell us about something,
and we talked about, we're going to tell you.
If you listen, you'd know.
This is a Clubhouse of Robin Cody.
You know that.
Every Tuesday night, if you don't catch us live, you can catch us on the archive.
There's also instructions on our website at www.theclubhousewithor RobinCody.com
of how they get our shows into your portable device.
So you don't have to worry about being online.
You can just have them in your iPod or your iPhone.
Just listen to it.
That's what we do.
Let's get on to a little bit of TNA impact.
And I promise myself this week that I'm not going to cringe when we talk about TNA.
This first story.
Have you heard about this?
I heard about Hogan in the game.
I did hear about that.
We reported that a long time ago, but I went and get to Buddy Buddy with G4
because as we reported on this show a few weeks back,
that's rumored to fix the UFC television.
Yes sir.
So I would put it lightly on G4.
Hogan's doing an interview with G4 from the E3 convention a few weeks ago.
And says, and again, if you're a person that doesn't like spoilers fast forward about two minutes.
In three, two, one.
Hey guys, get ready because the yellow and reds coming back and I'm going to be begging forgiveness
from all the people that I've wronged in total nonstop action wrestling.
But did you?
Um, hello?
But yeah, but did you see this coming?
With him, I just don't know anymore.
I kind of, um.
So is he going to be the face guy and Vischoff is going to be the heal guy?
And this is going to turn into flare being the consortium and worrying with Vince?
Nothing shocks me.
Or are we going to try to turn sting?
Heel.
I just don't know what to think about my leader sting anymore.
Well, we all know how I feel.
And then we find out how we're going to couple of weeks ago.
Reports and impacts will be going on the road every other week that it's shot down the same day.
Well, now last night, I read that there will be three impact tapings on the road.
The first one August 25th in Huntsville, Alabama.
September 21st in Knoxville, Tennessee.
And October 26th in Macon, Georgia.
So they are taking this thing on the road because, oh, oh, I don't know.
Maybe you want to make money instead of giving tickets away to people that don't know what they're watching?
Just saying.
Let me ask you this.
They're actually going to be shooting distance from here in a couple of weeks.
There's a great oil palace in Tyler.
Uh oh.
If I'm not doing anything and you're not doing anything, you want to take a road trip?
We'll see.
Okay.
I'm not.
I meant to ask you about this.
I'm not too thrilled with their product.
Three at 339, a gallon.
I'm saying he's not brother.
I am abandoning the meters.
Okay.
We're not doing the meters anymore.
You guys get to just chill.
Even though wrestling may matter, it doesn't with them.
And Hogan says brother a lot.
That's him.
I'm abandoning that.
It just wears me out.
Uh, a couple of things about a couple of things.
I'm now at the point with a miss.
I feel kind of bad for the dude.
He's a poor man.
He's a poor man's cross between a cane and a mankind.
Here's my thing with him.
Was the best 10 years too late.
Yes.
And that's how I got to feel about him.
He bought cane and mankind's chunk.
He was TNAs trying to be their big prey.
Well, he was, he was a very crazy mystery man.
But he was, he was northeast wrestling.
He's had that bit even before CNA.
When he worked for R.O.H.
and things of their nature up there in the northeast.
He was trying to feel really bad for the dude.
I'm just saying.
This next point.
I'm going to let you, because I'm going to, I'm going to defer to you.
What do we got going on here?
He's reading the starting line up for the American.
I just, I was, given one of your bold points about this,
I'm surprised that you're paying attention.
Love that twins throwback hat.
I'm sure a lot of you are watching the All-Star Game Live.
Love that twins throwback hat.
And good to see Josh Hamilton getting the start and left field of night
for the Rangers.
Belt trail on third.
Josh.
Rough week.
If you know anybody.
Shannon Stone, brother.
Rest in peace, man.
That was a tough deal out there.
And that's all I'm going to say about that.
Oh, from my suite.
Yeah.
That was the gentleman's round wood fireman.
So rest in peace, brother.
That was, I, I don't want to touch.
If you saw it live, which I did.
And I know a lot of you did.
My brother, I'll mat.
Huge Ranger fan.
I know he did.
That's, that's very, very tough to watch.
As is for a Ranger fan, it's as a Roy Holiday.
Steps to the mound.
Holland.
Holland.
Okay.
I'm moving on.
Sorry.
A lot of some of our audience is not real wrestling knowledgeable.
And so I'm going to ask you.
We have Daniels, styles.
RVD and Jerry Lynn.
Okay.
In a four corners match.
Will you please explain to our audience what a four corners match is?
It should be.
Well, everybody starts in a corner.
And then you wrestle.
And it's, I've seen them done elimination style.
Or I've seen just a guy get pinned and he wins.
Here's my question.
Why are we doing this tag team style?
There were two guys in the ring.
And then one of them would just tag somebody.
And then he would come in.
And they weren't necessarily on teams.
You just tag somebody.
And then you're out.
I just, I was like, okay, four way match.
All right.
Let these guys go.
And then two of them are holding onto ropes outside the ring.
I'm going, did I miss something?
Very, very odd to me.
Hogan.
Oh, okay.
I remember what I was talking with Hogan here.
We're now officially doing Joker sting.
Okay.
Okay.
Have you seen the makeup recently?
I have one on the website.
Hogan attacks sting.
And they're doing the whole.
He hits sting.
And then he goes, oh crap.
And then Hogan delivers the worst.
Bad lack of, no pun intended here.
The worst bat shot in the history of professional wrestling.
Like I could hit you with a whiffle ball bat.
And you could sell it better than Hogan did with this thing.
It was terrible.
But we've said it before.
We're working towards it.
Yes.
We're working towards it.
We're working towards it.
We're working too soon.
I think we're working towards Stingberg's Hogan for the belt.
So.
And then at the end of the show, Anderson joins Immortal.
We saw this coming from a mile.
Six months ago.
Six months ago.
This was like the never ending thing to finally have.
But let me ask you this.
How long does this last?
And who turns on who?
Hogan turns on him.
And I think that's Hogan.
Or he turns on Hogan.
And that's Hogan's face turn.
Which I'm telling you.
Ken Anderson to me is.
He's your world champion right now.
Mid card guy at best.
I like him.
In no matter where he's at.
I like him.
I just don't know that I'm putting my world.
Yeah.
I know a body is going to watch him watch TNA because of Ken Anderson walking around with that belt.
And I don't like that belt.
I think that felt incredibly ugly.
And then they had a pay-per-view Sunday night.
They did.
Destination X happened on Sunday night.
Tas could not make it.
He had a family obligation to attend.
So Jeremy Borash.
What do you think of your announce team of Mike Tane and Jeremy Borash?
Mute.
Yeah, but people paid for that.
Yeah.
Somebody did.
Somebody did.
Somebody did.
You know Ken always liked that they never released their buy rates.
I would hate to know.
I'd love to know their buy rates.
Oh, you're pulling a 1.5 on regular TV.
So Doug Williams has a mystery opponent.
And his mystery opponent ends up being a guy by the name of Mark Haskins.
Who's a British Indie guy?
Why would you have a guy nobody's heard of, debut at a pay-per-view
against a guy who's fairly established?
TNA.
Who are you?
I like that.
Grail Cheney.
Yeah, the channel girl said, who are you?
Who are you?
I mean, this poor guy, he never had a chance to begin with.
Uh-huh.
But he wrestled Doug Williams with a squash.
Here.
Generation Me.
You called me and told me that Generation Me was released following the pay-per-view.
After they job to Shark Boy and Eric Young.
Shark Boy, man.
I guess he's just going to, I guess he's just going to really be that Indie guy forever.
And he's still working the Austin bit.
That's the fishing line.
Because Shark Boy said so.
Okay.
And he uses the Stone Cold Chummer.
That's his finish.
Whatever.
Austin Aries wins the winner gets a contract match.
Good deal.
The crowd.
Apparently this was a great match.
And the crowd was chanting, sign them all.
Sign them all.
From what I saw, these guys are an impact.
They were all really good.
But my question to you, and I want to put this in park for a little while on this.
We talked about how at one time TNA dominated the women's division.
But the knockouts have become an afterthought.
Does beefing up the X division do anything for this company?
Could this help kick this company something to watch?
As long as Eric Bischoff's involved, no.
Because look what did the cruiser weights in WCW.
He killed it.
He choked it.
Not with him at the, he'll let it go just as far until it starts interfering with the main roster.
Main event guys, then he'll kill it.
Let me ask you this.
Who's a guy that you would say could be the guy that could take that division and really make that division.
Is there a guy that you know that can book that?
As far as, as a wrestler?
No, just to help book it and make it booked properly to keep it viable.
Chavo Guerrero.
To book it?
To book it.
His in-ring days are done.
I'll agree with you on that.
He can do some indie dates and he may be able to jump to TNA.
I think Chavo Guerrero's best usefulness right now in this business.
To me is behind the lens, behind the camera.
Backstage, behind the curtain.
Now, was there someone else that you had in mind as far as in front of the camera?
I like Austin Aries.
And I also...
I'm a huge Austin Aries fan.
And I also...
A double.
And is a book or two, an older guy that's been around.
I like Usher Can.
Usher Can.
Hawking Book.
I can't.
I'm getting no activity on the chat room at all.
I also...
I like Jerry Lynn.
A lot of people don't.
I've always been a big fan of Jerry Lynn back from ECW.
So I think Jerry Lynn's a guy that I'd love to see them give a shot at something.
So...
Nothing.
Okay, now I'm caught up in the end.
And I'm always free to book.
Absolutely.
We've always said give us a blank checkbook in the book.
And a year.
And a year.
Give me a blank checkbook in a contract for one year.
Oh!
I believe you've been trumpser as your father has said to him.
Not you!
That's a great hook.
Silver Hawk?
Yeah, Silver Hawk.
And an animated series in the 80s.
But you are listening to the Clubhouse with Rob and Cody.
.com as we go to the bottom of 1-0-0 when the MLB All-Star game.
Come on National League.
Win one for me please.
And Kendrick is your new exhibition champion.
I see beats of this.
I think this is a good move.
Yeah.
It kind of gives that...
Get that belt back on somebody that actually can do the exhibition stuff.
Also your new number one contender.
I forgot to put this in there.
As...
Oh geez.
Alex Shelley wins Ultimate X.
He is your new number one contender for the exhibition title.
As we know, his partner.
Chris Staben.
Out for the rest of the year.
So why not push the guy?
The guy's got talent.
We'll see.
Oh.
Chad.
Really?
Don't forget speaking of wrestling.
And if that is your ill it will be live at Fox and the Hound on July 17th.
This coming Sunday for WWE Money in the Bank.
If you don't know what we do there then you need to look up the Money in the Bank match to see what it's all about.
Sunday Sunday Sunday.
Chad.
We will be there at 6 o'clock.
We'll hit the air with a live pre show at Fox and Hound at 75 in Campbell Road.
And even if you're not a fan and you just want to come out with a great group of people.
We love to meet our listeners and hang out and talk with you guys.
Even though we'll have wrestling going on we're willing to talk about whatever during the show.
Not during the live show.
During the live show we've got to focus on the pay-per-view.
But once the pay-per-view goes on the air.
We're looking forward to seeing each and every one of you come on out.
Drink specials.
Do you remember them off-hand?
Yeah. Drink specials.
A $4 big course light.
Big Miller light on draft.
$2.3 olive vodka drinks.
Minus monster and juice.
And $15 buckets of long neck Miller light.
Long neck bottle.
Let go of my hand.
Move brother.
This Sunday.
6 o'clock.
Essential time now.
If you're not local to us.
You can catch that show live right here on U-stream 7 on the East Coast 4 on the West Coast.
As we prepare you.
For money in the bank which will be live from Chicago, Illinois.
Which we'll talk about a little bit later in the show.
Because that's what we do right here on the clubhouse of the Robin Cody.
Your one-stop shop.
For all things.
Sports.
Professional wrestling.
And pop culture.
And speaking of sports.
Let's talk.
A little in B.
Hey.
Oh my goddaughter is going to be here Sunday.
Very excited about that.
Also something I forgot to put on.
On my run sheet here.
We had something happen Friday afternoon.
As Yao Ming announced his retirement.
Really?
Yeah. Yao Ming done a ton of foot problems.
This guy was a phenom.
As he played for the Chinese national team.
Can I write a check?
Made a ton of money off the Houston Rockets did absolutely nothing.
But Yao Ming retires.
The NBA is saying they are appearing.
They're going to face across roads with their game in China.
Really?
Have 7 foot 6 center expected to announce his retirement.
July 20th.
Live from Houston.
Wow.
So I don't know.
That's just what they're saying.
I don't hear a bad foot injury.
But Yao Ming 06 to 2011 missed 34 games in 06.
Missed 27 games in 07.
His most productive season.
0809 where he missed only five games.
09 and 010.
He missed 82 games.
That would be the whole season.
Yeah.
And in 2011 he missed 77 games last year.
So he played five games in this past season.
So Yao Ming done.
What's your favorite memory of the Yao Ming era?
I thought he was, you know, and he started to me a big international movement.
I like Yao Ming.
The thing about it is it's tough to play center in the NBA.
Ask Sean Bradley with that type of build.
He's just, you know, I liked him.
You know, and he's second in a bunch of categories to only to me.
One of the greatest centers to play the game.
Hakima Lajuan.
The dream.
Former Houston Cougar, Houston Rockets NBA champion.
Like Yao.
I like Yao.
I just, his body frame does not work well in the American under the boards beaten in banging NBA.
It just doesn't work.
He was very, very injury prone.
Just like Greg Odin.
Kind of the same deal.
Yes.
Just very, very prone.
I still think Greg Odin is a guy with his mass.
I wouldn't mind seeing a team if we've heard the Miami Heat possibly maybe trying to after this lockout's done.
Well, that could be five years from now.
Pickin' up, Greg Odin.
Painting him a real cheap contract just to get somebody a body off the bench.
Yeah, but it's got to be a body that will go.
That's my whole thing.
Odin's got to show some, some, what's the word I'm looking for?
He's got to show me some stamina.
Just when the NBA lockout couldn't get worse, now you have players entertain the ideas of going to Europe.
Those players include, of course, the one being most vocal is a former Utah Jazz now free agent.
But new Jersey Nets property for now.
Darren Williams from Frankfurt, team in Turkey.
The same team that Alan Iverson played for.
Team in Turkey.
Now Kevin Durant mulling over overseas options.
As well as Amari Stautomire and Ron Artest.
That's right.
Nobody wants you in this.
Meta World Peace.
Whatever his name is.
But although his mama named it Ron Artest, they're going to call him a man.
Noah, Noah to play for France.
He's already signed to play with a France team in the year.
And here's the thing on these and understand people.
All of these players that are making these contracts.
Now Darren Williams deal with this Turkish team.
200,000 a month.
And that contract says, if the lockout ends, I can opt out at any point to come back to play in America.
So it's not like these guys are saying, you know, screw the NBA.
I'm going to go play overseas.
These guys are trying to find revenue.
Well, the thing about playing in European is I've heard this say, you know, Greece used to be the league where you can make the most money over there.
Right. Right.
What are you going to do in these 200,000 a month check start bouncing?
This is just, I think this Turkish team is going after Kobe too.
I think this is all smoking mirrors.
I think the players are trying to find any type of leverage they possibly can in this lockout.
And right now it's, let's go overseas.
Let's go overseas.
Let's go overseas.
And really put the pressure on David Stern, the owners.
It doesn't exist.
I agree.
That pressure won't happen.
The first time somebody throws up in 80 in the middle of the floor and fireworks start going off and the fans riot.
Hey, no disrespect about Europe.
It can get real weird over there with sports.
We've seen soccer brawls.
We've seen everything in European sports.
Also, Kevin Durant would be a fool.
What a lot of people don't have been asking to is understand something about these NBA players.
Playing overseas, their league health insurance does not cover injury that happens to them over there.
Yes.
No.
So you're, in my opinion, you're, you know, granted you're going to make two or three million dollars.
But you're taking a guard and you win risk with this.
I just, yeah, this things were Kevin Durant to me, a guy that we haven't even seen.
The prime of the great Kevin Durant right now.
We haven't seen the prime.
To me, he'd be the guy to really get hurt and screw up the gig.
Oh.
To really, really screw the picture.
You have to be right now, Kevin Durant, if you're listening or you know somebody who is.
Brother.
Yes.
There's about four hours worth of here.
If you're four hours north of here, you're the golden goose right now.
Be aware of that.
Oklahoma City's making a ton of money, brother, and it's because of you.
Yeah.
Donnie Nelson interested in coaching the Minnesota Timberwolves.
They finally fired Kurt Rambus.
Donnie hasn't.
Donnie the younger.
No. Donnie the younger.
No. Donnie the old.
So you're talking about Donnie.
Donnie's the younger.
Minnesota is not worth saving.
And that brings me to my next point.
As the shot at Bob Katzman announcement, they will start laying off employees in six months amid the NBA lockout.
So this time in January.
Yes.
So we have said we've talked about this before.
Now that the NBA lockout is done, I think it's time to revisit this NBA.
Oh, the NFL lockout.
Yeah.
The NBA lockout.
But we've talked about contraction NBA before on this show.
What can we get the Charlotte with the competition with the great ACC basketball that is in the state of North Carolina.
Of course, Duke, North Carolina.
So the Bob Katz, one of those teams that we, they've laid already laid off their radio announcement.
Two words.
Michael?
Yeah.
Jordan.
Let's shut down the Charlotte Bob Katz.
Here's my deal.
Clippers move to San Diego.
Hear me out.
Clippers move to San Diego.
You shot it.
Okay, so they have one team in LA.
Yeah.
You started there.
Clippers move to San Diego.
Yeah, keep going.
Stay where they are.
Oakland can have the warriors.
Toronto either moved to Kansas City or shut down.
Okay.
and repackage the New Orleans Hornets.
Give them back to New Orleans Jazz.
We talked about this.
Whatever.
Make the Jazz change your name.
You can do New Orleans something.
Get that name all out of there.
Sacramento, let them move to Vegas.
NBA, let the Sacramento Kings move to Vegas.
You know what?
As risky of a proposition as that is,
it might be the shot in the arm that the NBA needs.
Yes.
What's wrong?
It'll bring you publicity because the Contraversy creates cash.
This ain't the old Vegas.
Legs Diamond's not down the nugget.
You know what I'm saying?
It's not old Vegas.
To me, parts of Vegas is like a Disney World.
I mean, let's mark that.
Yeah, Legs Diamond.
Legs Diamond.
But I mean, just the Charlotte Bobcat.
Where was he not at?
He was not at the nugget, brother.
So I was going to call this at all beginnings again.
I think I just found the title for this episode.
But I just, you know, I think people,
sports has always been scared of Vegas.
Oh, always.
Because I think right now, to me,
the strip at times, you've been there more than I.
Yes, I have.
It looks like Disneyland at times, with the shows.
But you know what it is?
I've got four letters that will tell you why
professional sports is scared of Vegas.
You and L-N-L-V.
Well, I just, I mean, because of what
happened with those running rebels?
And if you haven't seen that HBO documentary,
look it up, brother.
Google it.
I just, I always, and I don't want to see anybody lose their NBA
team.
But Sacramento, Sacramento, you got to move that team out
of Sacramento.
You've got to move that.
I just, here's my thing.
If they don't sell out every seed of every game,
oh, they're not going to have a season.
But if they do, they better sell out every season every game
to make me think of that team.
Because they've got a one-year reprieve.
Yes.
To keep that team in a city.
I don't blame on the Arco Arena.
That's an old building.
Arco Arena is not a new state of the Arco Arena by no means.
The NWA was hosted shows there.
That's the Arco Arena in Sacktown.
That's it.
Old Arena.
So it's on a new thing.
And then you know the Maloofs.
Yeah.
You own a casino.
With the Playboy thing.
I've sold part of their interest in the Palm.
Oh, I have that.
But I think we should let them move to Vegas.
Once again, move to Vegas, Kings.
Repackage the Hornets and New Orleans.
Give the new, or give the Hornets a new Orleans type identity.
You know, you've been back to jazz.
We talked about this two weeks ago on this show.
Move them to Kent.
There we go.
Kent.
The Kent and Hornet.
The Kent and First Day Traders.
I'm Lord.
But yeah, I just move New Orleans gift.
And then, of course, Toronto.
We hardly knew you.
Yeah, Raptors follow your cousins in Vancouver.
The Grizzlies who moved to Memphis.
Finally, that team's making some...
Move them to Tennessee.
Move them to Nashville.
I don't know if that's too much for Nashville.
But that's NBA talk.
Then this lockout.
This thing's a long way away.
So get comfortable.
Oh, we've stayed.
What was it?
Nine billion last week?
Yeah.
I mean, they are billions of dollars apart from figuring this thing out.
I think the European things are smoke screen.
I would...
How old did it work for Alan Iverson?
That's all I'm saying.
He made a lot of coin, but I don't know if that's for everybody.
You are listening to the clubhouse of the Robin Cody live.
We are here in Ustream every Tuesday night.
Eight on the East Coast.
Five on the West Coast.
53 for 53.
Fifty.
It all begins again today.
And don't forget tonight, later in hour two,
the college football cliffhanger returns.
If you didn't get my tweet, check it out.
Two interesting, interesting teams tonight.
Let's just say somebody in this studio is poking the bear
and just leave it at that.
Oh, if I'm poking the bear.
Chances, Sacramento, San Francisco.
The problem that you have with that is...
Yeah, the warriors are already across the bridge in Oakland.
Move, move, Oakland.
It works for...
That's the great territory, Howard.
That works for football.
I don't know that it works for the NBA.
Yeah.
And it works for baseball because you've got Oakland
and you have the giants.
Northern California is getting rough up there, man.
You're so close to Washington and it's just...
Move them back to Seattle.
I mean...
Seattle needs a basketball team.
Let's go on and talk a little music news.
We're gonna start with this young lady right about here.
I like their new duet, Carrie Underwood, and Brad Pace.
I've not heard this.
Yes.
I heard the new Kenny Chesney and that Grace Potter
from the Knock Turnabout, she's a hot...
Yeah, it's a decent little song.
I just...
I don't like dual hosts.
Well, they're gonna host the CMA Awards again together
fourth time, November the 9th.
Now, this is the one that counts for you, right?
The CMAs?
This is a big one.
The CMAs are the big ones.
Okay, so this is the one that counts for you.
This is a big one.
It's the fourth time again they've hosted together.
They have 19 wins between them.
Huh.
And both of them...
Carrie.
She's hot and...
Brad Pace, his wife is hot, so works out for him.
There was a while when everything Carrie Underwood
touched went big.
And I don't think...
Do you think we're on the downside of that?
I think she puts out good music.
Watch your man, hey, what's up brother?
Ooh, yeah.
I just, you know, I'm...
What are you doing?
I love her.
Love the Carrie Underwood.
She looks like a real nasty unlady.
Good, good Christian girl.
Don't you tell me?
What's up?
Oh, that's Jimmy.
That's all I need me.
Hey brother, it's gonna see you.
The Black Eyed Peas announced in London this week
they are taking an extended break.
Will I am?
Says they'll be back just like they were before.
They're not saying how long this break is going to be.
Why couldn't they break up the year before the Super Bowl?
As they ruined it.
The worst Super Bowl ever ever.
The worst Super Bowl halftime ever.
No.
The ever.
The week.
Yeah.
Why couldn't they have broken up the last year?
And we could...
I just don't understand your end...
We've talked about this out of nauseam, yes.
Hey, you know what?
Yes.
Texas TD says his daughter-in-law is better.
Yeah.
She's cute.
They're better.
You only say that girl.
She doesn't listen to the show.
So...
That's a big group.
She's like, why are all these people calling?
Black Eyed Peas make a...
Black Eyed Peas make a fair share of money.
I have a couple yet.
So...
Well, as one team takes a break.
Another one.
Fires back up this past Friday as Sound Gardens reunion tour
kicked off in Jersey.
All reports I've read.
New Jersey.
New Jersey.
Let me tell you something.
Hey!
Phil's checking in.
Hope you're doing okay, brother.
Um...
All reports I've read from this show.
They rolled out the hits.
It wasn't one of these.
We're going to play some of them over.
So, they did Black Hole Sun.
And his hat on the whole...
Black Hole Sun fell on dark days.
They've got some hits, brother.
And you got...
Cornell's got such a great boy.
She can't deny that.
Very, very pleased.
And even Billboard gave the show a resigning.
If they play...
If they come here and the tickets are cheap enough...
I'm saying 30 bucks are under, I'd go see Sound Gardens.
Yeah, it just depends on the venue.
If it's at Nokia, I'm in.
I'm out on the outdoor show.
Black Day's chat, I'm sorry.
Out on the outdoor show.
Yeah.
But let me ask you this.
I want to make this a bit of a feature.
We talk about a band.
I want you to tell me the ceiling that you would pay to see him.
Okay.
Um...
Speaking...
I'm sorry, go ahead.
I think with right now...
Nobody knew, I don't want to see anybody knew at all.
Um...
I think my limits the $50.
But I want to say as we talk about different bands.
Yes.
If they were coming to town and it was under $50 and I had the night off,
I would consider going.
Okay.
Next up, a lady who's the hometown I wrote through today.
The new Miranda Lambert album will be released on November 1st.
It will be called 4F-O-U-R.
The record?
She's also releasing, I guess, the second album with this next group.
Now, the Pistol Annie's.
I was going to get to that.
Miranda Lambert, back to your first point.
It better be good.
Because you've got to follow up.
Probably.
Yeah.
You're a first album where you got out of the outlaw role.
This Pistol Annie's is her, a chick from Kentucky, unknown.
Is that would that be the Angelina Pressley?
Yes.
But not...
She's not a Pressley.
No, no, no.
Because I couldn't find anything on her own.
This Monroe, who a lot of people are saying Bill Monroe,
I think these are fake last names.
Okay.
Bill Monroe.
Okay.
That's what's going to be.
I've heard interesting things about this Pistol Annie's thing.
I would debate on if Ashley Monroe and Angelina Pressley,
I would debate their real last names.
One's from East Tennessee.
The other's from Eastern Kentucky.
I.E. Elvis Pressley, Bill Monroe.
I don't want to go over there.
I tried to do...
Oh, and Derek's doing this as well.
Good to see you, sir.
I don't...
It's sad.
There's no Wikipedia listening for this Angelina Pressley.
Very unknown new artist.
Now, what is the deal?
Is this her kind of still kind of dabbling in the outlaw thing
while trying to get away from it at the same time?
I think so.
I think so.
I think it's her choice.
Because you are my country music go-to guy.
I was wondering what your opinions were on this.
I've heard good things about this album,
but they're getting ready to release another one.
I heard something.
Did this one just come out?
I heard some on XM.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Three chicks singing about drinking beer.
Okay.
And they debuted their new single,
Off This New Album, on Good Morning America,
allegedly last week.
Can we skip this next one?
Nope.
We have to.
It's pop culture, sir.
That's kind of what we do.
Rebecca Black.
You know her from the YouTube sensation Friday.
She's releasing her new...
Her new single this Friday.
She's self-producing and self-releasing it.
Called My Moment.
It is releasing Friday, oddly enough.
When the writing credit goes to a guy that wrote a Justin Bieber remix.
Whatever.
Let's just say I'm not expecting this thing.
Actually Monroe.
I do not see anything that would show.
Well, just, yeah.
I mean, there's nothing sure that's not her real name.
Yeah, I wouldn't.
So...
She was in the record contours.
Go figure.
Oh, she's associated with that.
Also, releasing a 5-song EP in August.
So the Rebecca Black fan club get ready for that.
Also, we had a death in the music family this past weekend.
Can I play a little something for you?
Yeah.
Better be good.
What else would it be?
Motorhead guitarist Michael Wertzel bursted in the past away over the weekend.
61 of heart disease.
Boy, they keep up with Limmie.
You're a kid.
Yeah.
They'll pick up with Limmie, man.
Whoa.
Whoa.
All right, last music headline this week.
Did you have a chance to skim this list?
Yeah, I kind of went to...
This is something...
You know that in its final beat.
XM's serious radio is fixing to acquire the rights of I Heart radio.
Which is a huge app on your mobile device.
That's what this is.
This is kind of launching that.
And Ryan Seacrest, who I've now determined there are like five Ryan Seacrests.
And they just kind of rotate because he never sleeps.
He works like 90 hours a day.
He works in like Narnia.
He will be hosting the first I Heart Music Radio Festival in Las Vegas the week...
The dates of September 23rd and 24th.
Listen to this lineup in one music festival.
Lady Gaga, Cold Play, Alicia Keys, Steven Tyler, without Aerospace apparently.
The Black Eyed Peas, I guess, before they take the break.
Kenny Chesney, Jennifer Lopez, Carrie Underwood, James Addiction, Nicki Minaj,
John Mayer, David Getta, Rascal Flats, Bruno Mars, Kelly Clarkson.
Who you think I overrate?
Who I don't.
Sublime, apparently Rome is now the lead singer of Sublime.
He's an old R&B singer, which I think is kind of okay.
Urshur, Sting, and they're still announcing more acts.
This, to me, sir, is a music festival.
Yeah, I mean...
When I look at a lineup for a music festival, I'm like,
I've never heard of any of these bands.
That's not a music festival.
This is a music festival.
Yeah, Urshur.
Haven't you ever listened to the Yass song?
He says, Urshur.
I just...
I'm in.
I'd go.
There's somebody paid for it.
I'd go.
Pasha is going to Vegas.
Music, new releases this week.
We have a brand new album from who I think is a great...
Very...
They had a great...
Flash, a flash of brilliance, and then they've kind of gone away.
I think there's still a great band.
As...
Incubus releases, if not now, win today.
I have not heard any tracks, but I'm very excited to do so.
Also, Theory of a Deadman, who was brought into prominence by one Chad Kruger of Nickelback,
their new album, The Truth Is, releases today.
The previously mentioned Sublime with Rome.
They're Albu, because they can't be Sublime.
A judge wrote, they can't just be Sublime.
So they're just Sublime with Rome now.
Yours truly?
Tesla returns today.
Great 80s hair rock band with twisted wires.
And we talked about this guy's wife earlier.
Blake Shelton releases Red River Blues today.
You've got a little bit of something on this, sir.
I actually saw him Saturday night.
Where were you to do this?
Hudson Hot Springs, Arkansas.
You are turning into the king of the weekend road trip, aren't you?
That's a lot.
He's a very fun act in concert.
Very interacts with the world.
Oh, so you saw him perform?
My understanding is that there was...
You had run into him, so...
No, I saw him.
I saw him in concert.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, pretty cool.
How would you...
Okay, first of all, how much did you pay?
25 bucks.
Okay.
Acceptable.
This is the sixth time I've seen him.
So, he's been on some tours that I have...
Okay, it's been involved.
Is this the first time you've seen him headline?
Yes.
Okay, so before he was a supporting act,
now he's the guy that gets the use of the entire power
of the sound system and all the lights.
How long did he play?
Good.
He played almost two hours.
Oh, wow.
So, that was a good show.
He played a lot of old stuff,
played some...
It played all red for you.
That was the encore.
I was halfway to the parking lot.
Mentally, I was in the parking lot.
Did I get some beach?
Yes.
Because I love that.
That was the second.
The baby?
No.
Did not play the baby.
Very uptempo show.
He didn't do a lot of slow stuff.
He did...
I think the slowest one he got was Austin.
That's a good song.
That's a good song.
That's really the only slow point of the night.
Really?
Great show.
A lot more...
When I saw him a couple more times,
it was...
Here's Blake Shelton.
Let me sing four songs in Usherimov's stage.
He did pretty well as an opening act.
I just don't know if he is an opening act big mega star guy.
He might be.
He might prove me wrong,
but he was a good show.
I think he's got to get away from the being on TV thing
and stick to the music thing.
Because I think he's got that...
He's at that breaking point to me
that he's got to go one way or the other.
That's true.
We've got some more releases I'll put up on a blog entry later this week.
Some great new release.
This is a huge week after having almost nothing last week.
It's like...
It is your golf music, sir.
It's time for us to talk.
Little golf talk.
Apparently we just now take it over the show
the last few week.
Golf in tennis.
I don't know where.
Little golf talk.
Wouldn't be mentioning this if it was not a major.
It is a major.
This is the 48 hours away.
From the tee off of the British open.
I preferably wish this could be played at St Andrews every year.
I've played St Andrews on Tiger Woods.
I don't like that.
Not my place.
But St George will host the open championship for the 14th time.
Thank you, St George.
So the open championship moved away from Royal St. George's for 32 years
before returning in 1981.
Okay.
Quick segment, guys.
I promise you.
Hey, I'm a boy.
I love golf, so.
Of course, right now the craze in all of golf is one Rory Mackleroy
from Northern Ireland.
Don't confuse Ireland in Northern Ireland.
That's like I'm a long porn fan about a root for the Sooners.
It's kind of a weird deal.
But Rory Mackleroy, of course, your favorite to win.
Tease off at 4 a.m. Dallas time.
4 a.m. Eastern in the Eastern Times.
Thursday?
Yeah.
I will not be up.
So Rory Mackleroy, of course, is another low-key one root for an American.
America.
Go America.
Phil Nicholson teased off at 9 a.m. Dallas time.
10 o'clock over on the East Coast.
Britt, this is one that I'll keep up with.
I don't keep up with a lot of these, but I'll keep up with the Masters.
The Lynx course.
The Lynx course is something I've always been fascinated with.
Because if you don't pay attention to golf,
golf on an American golf course is completely different than it is overseas.
They use different kinds of grass, the hazards.
We have a course here locally called the tribute.
That every hole of the tribute is modeled after a hole on a Lynx course.
It still doesn't give you that same feel, but especially like you talk about St. Andrews.
The ball will travel.
It travels differently than I've ever seen in any other courses in Andrews.
It will roll for days.
So we're going to see how St. George works out.
Who are you taking?
Man, I'd like to say Rory, because I'd like to see somebody come in and feel that Tiger Woods tightroll.
I think that would be great not only for golf in general, but for the sport as a whole.
I just think it's going to be somebody that we don't that kind of comes out of nowhere.
Of course, your betting odd favorite is Rory McRoy to about an eight to one right now.
So he, you know who I'd like to see when it I'd like to see somebody.
And I don't want to give any names, but you know, maybe like a shigeki for you.
I'm going to come back into into problem.
Yeah.
Somebody that'll take Rory McRoy down to the very end.
So maybe we can start to create a new ride a Phil Tiger, a Phil VJ kind of a thing.
We need, I'd like to see Rory McRoy start winning because I like the kid, but he needs a rival.
I still think that a guy that I have said before that I believe is is is do one is I'm going to throw a name KJ Choi.
Oh, you know, for some reason I had him on my mind.
KJ Choi has been a guy in some of these majors where he's had some top five top seven finishes.
I think he's ready to over the hump.
He could be huge for golf if Rory McRoy won this tournament.
I just I need to kind of for me Rory for me personally.
I'm at a wait and see with him with Rory McRoy.
I'm at a wait and see with him.
Yeah.
I just we talked about this in the show a couple of weeks ago.
We're so quick to want to crown somebody.
Yes.
Let's not do that.
Why can't Rory McRoy be the first Rory McRoy?
Why does he have to be the next Tiger Woods?
Let's let's take our time and let some of these guys develop so they can have longer term careers.
I just that we can watch for longer.
I just think that it's just something that this is going to be a tournament.
Of course, Lewis Austin.
I can't even say the last name.
One at last at St Andrew's last year.
So of course, real quick.
Real quick.
We're going to wrap this thing up, man.
July 14th of 17th Royal St. George Golf Club in Sandwich.
Kent Ireland.
Our old Sandwich.
So you par 70.
Par 70?
Yeah.
Par 70.
Oh boy.
That's not good.
The yardage on this 7,211 on the yards on this deal.
First is $7.73 million.
Goes to the winner there.
It's having some money.
They're giving out.
1.3 goes to the winner.
Okay.
So that's a small little British open preview.
I know golf's not for everybody.
But hey.
I enjoy the cover.
Yeah.
It's kind of all day.
I think sports, fun, culture, and pro wrestling.
So we can't do it.
You know, we can't.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
If you're watching the All-Star game, we're still tied at nil.
Let's go national league.
Win a game.
Great shame.
Well, they won last year.
Well.
It's more than one.
American League was too distracted with the death of George.
George Steinmer.
You know, Jimmy, I'll agree with you.
Tiger Tiger.
Tiger is the standard.
But I'm just so sick of we want to crown some of the next so-and-so.
Why can't we just say, hey, this guy is good.
Yeah.
I think Roy McElroy is good.
But this is a guy who's been a phenom via YouTube and British amateur golf at 15 years old.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
In Beggar to take him back.
She left his rear end.
But that's golf talk.
That's a real quick segment.
We are here every Tuesday night, eight on the East Coast, five on the West Coast.
We appreciate each and every one of you that join us.
Go to our merchandise store.
Pick up some gear for you.
You can pick up some gear.
We had a baby born and the baby wasn't wearing a skull cap.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Congratulations to our friend, Tonya, who gave birth to a daughter this past week.
And also, congratulations to my friend, Alan Cain, who gave birth to a son on my birthday.
Oh, congratulations.
I'm very excited about that.
If you are a lady that is with child or you know someone that is by one of the baby skull caps from our merchandise store,
you can get to from the clubhousewithrobincody.com.
Have the picture in the nursery in the hospital with the baby in the skull cap?
30 bucks.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Real quick, hey guys, I like getting a little little little feedback on the golf talk.
Here's the thing about Tiger.
This country loves dominance.
I always got to have a villain.
That's what I think made Tiger so good is this country that United States of America, we thrive on dominance.
Go America.
We love dynasty.
Team America.
We love dominant players.
And you said it right.
Michael Jordan.
You're right.
Michael Jordan needs no comparison.
Tiger Woods though, but ever since Jordan, Iverson, Kobe,
LeBron, D Wade, next Jordan, next Jordan, next Jordan.
Golf is fixing to get that any young kid that's under the age of 25 that wins a major is going to get next Tiger.
Next Tiger.
Next Tiger.
That's just, that sports it a huge crossroads right now.
Huge.
So get the ratings back up.
Yeah.
I like golf.
Always have.
Let's talk a little smackdown please.
Great segment right there.
A war-winning segment.
Golf talk right there.
Not checking in.
Good to see you, sir.
So.
A war-winning segment?
Yes.
The golf.
A war-winning segment.
The golf segment there.
Did we get no word I wasn't aware of?
The golf segment just now is called.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
The golf segment committee called.
We used to remember that.
Yeah.
Awesome.
We're number one.
I'm sorry.
Speaking of America, Captain America.
I told you this is going to be the one that's going to be tough for me today.
It looks amazing.
They are.
They are.
They are promoting the fool out of that.
That's what worries me.
That's what worries me.
That's what worries me.
That's what worries me.
CJ Wilson, if you're a Ranger fan, warming up in the bullpen for the American League.
So.
Okay.
Michael PSH, no longer the head-booker of Smackdown, replaced by Ed Katsky, who is a 10-year veteran
with the company, has done this job before.
Thoughts on this, sir.
Well, love me.
He talked about this a little bit in the pre-show.
Love me, hey.
Love me, hey.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Follow me.
Follow me.
Cody PSH.
Yes.
That's Robert.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Michael PSH.
See the relation there.
One of my leaders.
You're from the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex.
You grew up watching the fabulous freebirds battle of Onerix in support of the world.
That's who this guy is.
I think I'd like to see Hayes get in a little better shape.
And I'd love to see Michael Hayes on camera.
Michael Hayes is an on-camera guy.
But he's a guy that can, you know, look what he did for the hearty boys.
I love him booking.
I like him booking.
But I'd like to maybe see them, maybe put Hayes on television as a manager as something.
One word.
Commentary.
That's true.
Put him at the table.
I'd love to see Hayes do something.
Hold.
Hold.
Josh Groben or whatever his name is.
I'd love to see Hayes.
It's not smackdown.
I'd love to see Hayes do something.
I'd love to see Hayes do something.
Hold him out of there.
Put Hayes in the chair.
Hayes Booker T and Michael Cole.
So come on.
Yeah.
I do like this next point.
And I'll take one.
We found out on Friday smackdown that at the money in the bank if Orton gets de-cued or
there are shenanigans in his match with Christian.
Christian automatically becomes the champion.
What are we setting up here?
A time where Randy can lose the belt but not lose face.
I think somebody interferes in that match gets Orton de-cued.
Christian wins the belt.
Shameless?
Yeah.
It's a way for Orton to kind of save a little face.
I'd also keep my eye on Wade's Barrett in that match as well.
And I'll tell you something.
And I'm going to reverse my position on something.
I said last year I don't like money in the bank not being in WrestleMania.
I'm starting to change my position on that because having too money in the bank ladder matches in one pay-per-view
that can be cashed in even that night as King did last year.
It kind of adds a little bit of a variable to this pay-per-view that makes it maybe going to be kind of fun to watch.
After the last two they've got to do something.
Thus far I'm a little intrigued.
Of course as we're heading full speed into a major as Summer Slams in August.
Next month.
And that'll be a year since the first time we did a special audition for a pay-per-view.
Wow.
This is odd.
It's all coming full circle, sir.
It's all coming full circle.
I was reading a recap of Smackdown.
And the guy said, here's something.
Chad, we're going to talk about that in a little while.
Trent Barrettis had eight matches on Smackdown in the chair.
Tom Fillard.
And I don't...
I make he's won one.
Why has Evan born on Raw so much?
Because so that way I could go in my living room and go, I'm super excited to be on Raw!
Because that's how we sound.
Jinder Mahal has this match, Collie.
Apparently sits down in the table for commentary and spends the whole match adjusting his headset.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And all that.
See, this part of his bit is funny to me.
Yeah.
But what's funny about Collie is he'll sit there and he'll talk in his native tongue.
But I'm the kind of person I can read lips.
I watch him speak English when the microphone's not in his face.
It drives me insane.
But here's my thing with Jinder Mahal.
This is for the people in the cheap seats.
Get this guy somebody to fight.
I beg you.
Thank you.
I just had to get that off my chest.
Because for me, we're wasting this guy.
Completely wasting this guy.
Get Collie to turn on him at some point.
To wrap this all up, I don't know if it's a booking problem on Smackdown.
I think it's a total talent.
And that's a lack of talent on Smackdown.
That's company-wide, sir.
That's not just Smackdown.
That's company-wide.
I didn't have the wrong echo effect.
I apologize for that.
This is the one I was going for.
Not the other one.
New segment.
It is time for the new segment.
Oh my goodness.
You are moving along quite nicely tonight.
I tell you what, man.
I was impressed with the course we're talking about none other than person of interest.
That's right.
Well, and Ryan, we've done Al Pacino post 1990.
Of course, I believe I had a hot topic last week with my person of interest being one
then Broadway Joe Nameth.
And this week, another, like I said, like Batman, Joker, Vader, Skywalker.
Me and this guy, I just don't get the hoopla over this guy.
After we talked about Joe Nameth last week, I was like, I have to do this one.
Yes.
Eventually, he was going to be in my crosshairs eventually.
A guy that I've always said has the greatest line ever uttered by an athlete in a film.
When he was asked why he was in Miami, he said, I'm here to play the dolphins dumbass.
We are talking about one Brett Favara.
Here's my thing with Brett Favara.
And this is something that you and I have discussed on this very show.
Is he great or is he just a guy that played for nine billion years?
You know, and I take that.
You know, he broke a lot of records of one Dan Marino of certain people.
The great Curtis Granderson.
Favorite wrestler is Junkyard Dog Ultimate Warrior, Hogan Booker Team,
macho man and the Undertaker for Curtis Granderson.
Congratulations on that.
And on him.
But I just, the thing about Brett Favar is it was a big deal when he started breaking Marino's records.
That was his real quarterback.
That's all he had.
All he had in my opinion.
Oh, we had an astro make the all-star team.
Well, every team has to be referenced in drops.
But, um, I, um, my deal with Brett Favar is I believe at Green Bay.
When he came in at the second quarter, 1992 in the Cincinnati Bengals,
he took the spot of one quarterback where they may have Dan Makowski.
And drafted by the Atlanta Falcons.
Our friend Zach Randall has a Brett Favar, the Atlanta Falcons jersey.
Show, show, miss the team pitcher because he was, as it, it was at home drunk.
Part of the knock for hungover.
Miss the Atlanta Falcons team pitcher.
I love Brett.
I think Brett's a good old boy.
And I'm always one.
I like to, I like the good old boys.
Um, I, the thing about Brett Favar is he's got one ring.
One ring.
And we as America, go America.
Because he played a long time and he was that good old boy and he played her.
He never missed games.
I.e. Cal Ripken.
We kind of ordained him the greatest quarterback slash greatest football player of all time.
And I just don't see it.
My thing with Brett Favar is yes, he has those records, but he also has the bad records too.
Yes, most interceptions in a career.
And he's fumbles, I quarterback in a career.
To me, he was just a guy who, he had longevity.
That's right, he did.
He did have longevity.
Brett, you know, I think Brett sold his legacy by going to the Vikings, which I don't disagree with him.
He was one pass away from playing the Indianapolis Colts in Miami for the Super Bowl that year.
So his first year with, with the Minnesota Vikings to me, made a lot of Packer fans look pretty foolish.
But hey, look at you now.
You got the ring.
Yeah.
Aaron Rodgers was a great fill in.
I'm glad Aaron Rodgers is able to get out and go chat.
But Brett Favar, day one, for day one, vote ballot one, Hall of Famer.
Absolutely.
Of course, to deal like we got brought up the chat room, that's gone.
And Adrian Gonzalez goes yard, gives the AL a win.
We'll talk about him a little bit too.
Good mercy.
So as I believe that was one Clifford Lee that gave up that dinger.
You're not even a Ranger fan.
You're taking this shot.
But I, Brett, first ballot Hall of Famer, absolutely.
Can't debate it.
The thing with the chick went in the, in the taking the pictures.
Yes, true.
That happened.
Sold as legacy.
I guess a little.
But what did you expect?
I just, to me.
Brett Favar will always be in a Packer jersey.
Yes.
And you know, it was like Marino.
He almost went to Pittsburgh at the end of his career.
We talked about Joe Montana going to Kansas City in his career.
And also, Troy, Troy Ackman, flirting with the San Diego Chargers in the other career.
So.
And it's Smith wearing an Arizona Cardinals jersey.
But Brett, you're right.
Brett will always be a Packer.
I think a lot of, with Brett is.
Green Bay is a very small community.
Jimmy, good point.
Yeah.
This isn't New York City.
New York, Shannon.
Green Bay kind of fell in love with the guy.
And I don't blame him.
I don't blame him.
He was a great player.
He just, I think he just played a long time.
Yeah.
I mean, he'll go in the heart.
That's a verdict.
That's a verdict.
Great player.
Brett Favar played a long time.
And that is person of interest.
The pendulum swings back to you this week.
It does.
Looking forward to seeing what you've got going on here.
It does.
I mean, that was eventually going to be, be one of mine.
I was kind of, when I did, I was going to save him.
You know, I'm going to, I'm going to save that, that one.
But he's, that was a good one.
And, you know, he may not have a choice, but to be retired this season.
Well, the thing about it is with, with Brett.
It's just such a weird, to me, with Brett Favar,
but it's just a weird deal with him.
Prince Fielder E6.
25.
As you know, what that music means.
That means we're, we are going on campus right here on the clubhouse
with Rob and Cody, but no real headlines this week
or going on campus.
Pretty quiet.
I know there's some stuff.
I keep seeing on Twitter, my good friend, Jess Striker,
from landtheads.com.
Jess, our friend.
Good.
I hope you're out there, brother.
Yeah.
Reporting.
There's more with this list, Mr. Liles.
From LSU.
From LSU.
There's starting to be, there's some, probably some,
an SEC West team, not named Arkansas,
involved in this deal.
We will, we'll keep you posted as we are now six,
six Saturdays away.
Six Saturdays away.
We will be back.
The college football, six Saturdays away.
I've got people asking me what game we're going to go to this year.
We need to get that walked out.
Man, I'll tell you this is, it's going to be a,
it's going to be a fun season in more ways than more with a lot of people.
College football, cliffhanger.
There's my music.
I had to get the intro music.
I didn't want to go straight into that.
I'm going to start off with a team that needs redemption so bad they can't stand it.
I talked about their opponent in the Rolls-Bull last year.
Going out.
We're talking about going out right now.
Wisconsin, of course, preseason number 14.
Badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger.
Wisconsin was a preseason 14.
That was before they picked up ACC,
former NC, North Carolina State Quarterback.
Russell Wilson, who was a lot being compared to one Cam Newton,
minus the $225,000 he was paid to play quarterback.
I was waiting for it.
I was waiting for it.
I was waiting for it.
But I believe Russell Wilson, who led the ACC in passing yards and touchdowns last year at NC State,
he might be, I think, Wisconsin right now is a top five team.
Wisconsin and, and I'm not, that's a bold statement.
But again, I put no faith in any preseason rankings in college football.
I just, if you look up, look just while I'm talking here.
Look up and look, look at the size of this Russell Wilson.
Look at this guy.
I put him in the club right here.
He has a Cam Newton type field.
I don't know if anybody in the big 10 conference can handle that defensively.
Take a look at this kid.
I'm doing an image search right now.
Wisconsin, of course, as we mentioned earlier, lost a Rolls Bowl to T.C.
You?
That is a large individual.
I mean, I think he could be a good build on him.
Yes.
Wisconsin returning five starters on offense.
Six on defense.
So you bring back 11 guys.
Of course, the one that they missed the most here was, of course,
offensive guard, John Moffitt was a guy.
And hey, another deal.
Bill nagging.
The scene.
Isn't he the science guy?
That's Bill nine.
Oh, I'm sorry.
The center.
The center position.
Now you break it in a new quarterback and a new center in the same season.
So Wisconsin loses three offensive linemen.
And of course, Scott told us in the quarterback.
He's gone.
A quarterback.
Joe.
Joe Bert.
Joe Brandy.
Sorry, bro.
You're not the starter anymore.
This kid's going to be the starter.
Wisconsin's def chart defensively.
They're all seniors and juniors.
I'm going to tell you this with Ohio State being hampered.
Michigan trying to rebuild to me to win the big 10 championship game.
Will probably be Wisconsin and Nebraska that night in Indianapolis.
You agree with that?
You go there?
Staying here because I was reading.
Wisconsin, Nebraska, big 10 title game.
You enter out on that.
To me with Ohio State rebuilding Purdue Northwestern Illinois Iowa.
You know who I don't ever count out of that.
Especially in recent years is Northwestern.
They're one of those teams that can get.
You know what's good for Northwestern.
Seven wins.
As long as they can play in full games.
They're fine with that.
But Wisconsin just with this quarterback.
And they already had a great running back.
And James Y.
And a great quarterback in our.
Antonio.
Felix.
This has a team that.
I don't want to say win the national title.
But man, they look like they could run through that big 10.
And get back to the roles.
Well, let's take a look at the schedule.
I've got to pull that right now.
Who knows.
Starting off UNLV.
That's a win at home win.
Oregon State.
That's not a win.
I'm saying no.
Oregon State.
The beaver.
And that's new.
Now they have lost to kids Rogers there at Oregon State.
They're top running back.
They're rebuilding mode.
Northern Illinois.
That's a win.
That's a soldier field.
That's a win.
South Dakota win.
That's a win.
October 1st.
Nebraska.
That's a loss.
Don't ever.
I'm telling you Nebraska.
I think is going to come out with guns blazing in the big 10.
Don't ever write Nebraska.
I think they will.
They will.
They will make this little little segment here.
Don't write Nebraska.
Indiana win.
At Michigan State.
Lost.
They go to the horseshoe Halloween weekend.
October 29th.
I think of again.
I don't put any stock in preseason college football rankings.
But Ohio State being rated number five.
Let's not get stupid with it.
Yeah.
Here's where it gets weird.
At Minnesota.
Purdue.
Purdue at home.
At Minnesota.
It's a road game.
At Illinois.
And they finished a season with Penn State.
I just don't know what to think about Penn State this year.
So I'll give them a loss.
I'm going to say if they lose a game.
I just don't know if they can.
If they can.
I don't know if they lose a game at Camp Randall Stadium.
I'll put it to you that way.
Yes, I have no life.
I knew it was gone to play home game.
Hey.
I'm not here.
Judges.
I just.
College football is your wheel.
But I just don't know if they lose a game at Camp Randall.
I'm still not.
I say.
Okay.
There's the state South Dakota, Indiana for, do.
Purdue Penn State.
Penn State's the only one that makes it go.
I just don't know if they can break it.
Oh.
I'm going to give him a loss.
It's Ohio State still has Ohio State talented players.
It's not like Ohio State kicked everybody off the team.
My thing with Ohio State is they're going to be watching every
breast they take.
But don't act like Ohio State kicked everybody off and they brought in
Columbus Community Colleges.
Football team.
Ohio State still has.
But the number two recruiting class in the country.
Pass three but are you going to say dirty your clean every program's dirty
I'm just saying but but here's my thing are you still gonna say that's the fifth best team in the country
Wisconsin no Ohio State I'm not but that's what I'm saying. I'm five is overrated for them. Don't expect don't expect them to win five games
They'll win they'll win 11 12. Oh, but you're saying they're only gonna win four games. Oh, wow
Ohio State will win 11 12 games this year
The Rick the players are waxed now people. They're a dynasty. They're a college football monster. The players are there two words
Ron Zook. Yes, what happened in Florida?
They were primed to win the national championship
Rick's Grocery was primed to win the husband trophy and the whole thing went to pop but don't act like Ohio says
Okay, well, we're on probation. We're gonna let everybody beat us. Oh, no, they're not gonna go out and lay down
But I'm not saying they're gonna win 11 12 games because you've got to coach unless that coach comes in and goes
I'm not touching anything you guys go play like Barry Switzer do when he goes cowboys if that does if that happens
I would put some creeps
But if he comes in there and says look I got to change the culture. Yes
We got a change of things don't need to do that. It's gonna get ugly
Yeah, but don't just Ohio State. I think they look they could lose the game at the horseshoe Halloween weekend
Wisconsin. I'm not saying national title, but I just think that's a prime time to this quarterback
That's eight o'clock eastern. Yes, this is gonna be a fairly big game for Wisconsin to kind of determine where they're at
But don't snooze on Ohio State winning 10 or 11 games this year
Well, okay, let me hold on before you start to get to this side of this coin. I got to get comfortable
I got to make sure that my my chair here in the studios got my back and another monster
As we all know another monster who has
Probably pulled the wall over college football last year with I think one of the biggest hires
That caught me. I know it caught you and I know it caught another guy listening
I would say they pulled the wall over people's eyes. They just pulled a coup. Yeah, I think they pulled a coup and
The hiring of Will Munchchant by the University of Florida. It caught me way off guard
Because I didn't think there was any way that that guy got out of Austin, Texas without being the coach of the
Texas Longhorns. I really thought that I thought that he would go
I didn't remember we thought he was going to Georgia
We didn't think he'd go to all of a sudden Florida goes hey, we got a new coach
I mean did I miss a meeting and hey, you know Texas fans
I always people listen to show Florida doesn't call twice. That's true. That is very very true
I mean Florida like OU like Texas like Notre Dame like allow these big colleges
They don't call you back. Hey, my whole thing was Will Munchchant was when they gave Mac that extension
I said must-champ is gone because I'm not I'm not sitting around waiting forever. No, you can't as they speak the
We call this a cliffhanger when goes up one goes down. I'm gonna say down by a little bit a little bit
You're still a power. You're still Florida start with recruits as Florida the Florida gators are on the back end
Preseason rank number 22, which means absolutely nothing again
I don't believe in that just like Cody said as they bring back eight on offense five on defense
Of course quarterback John Brantley. We have to see what this guy is gonna be. He's a senior Brantley
Can you get your head out of your took us this year, please? I beg you. I put so much faith in this guy
After after T-bo's last year and he came out and laid in a
This is my deal with Florida Florida doesn't have a quarterback that can make place
We have to see by game three what John Brantley is or we have to
We better see it game three we have to put in a George sophomore quarterback Jordan Reed in my opinion
But losses of course Emanuel Moody the running back USC transfer that never panned out to him another one Carl Moore a wide receiver of course Mike Pounsy the center
The center we talked about this on this show last week or week before you lose your you of course
Thank you feel for supporting Cody on this
You lose your center. It can mess up the entire rhythm here offense
So now you got a quarterback who's he's gonna have to break into brand new center this year. That's not all that's not a cake walk
You know not at all on defense. Of course man first rounders out the wazoo of course the big one Brandon Hicks outside linebacker there
He's gone
Justin Trudeau another starting defense of another NFL guy Jerry John Brantley of course running back Jeff Dems
Can Jeff Dems make a play can he stay healthy? He's yeah, that's the thing with Dems is his health and it if we can keep him healthy
He could be the key to this offense, but if he can't stay healthy
We are but again first year with a new coach. I'll give you a mulligan
Yes, oh absolutely also here's another thing. I think a problem with Florida as you saw
I think you really saw it against Florida state and I think you saw it against Mississippi state
Florida's wide receivers can't stretch the field. That's true. You know, I'll have to make that Deontay Thompson. He's a senior
Frank who's your offensive court? Frankie Hammond. Yeah, I mean, we've got a who's your offensive coordinator now
But he's only as good as a tools
But let's let's wait and see. I don't know if Brantley can do a pass happy offense
I just think much has the most champ has been very very smart and bringing guys in that are going to be are going to
To mold these kids. I mean much champ didn't come in here and say this is my show
And this is how this bad boy is gonna roll. He said get me Charlie Weiss
Get me these guys that are gonna help me get where I need to be and
Again, I'm willing to give them a mulligan on this year. I'm not saying we're going over. Oh, no, no
But what I am so I am saying we're gonna be at least bull. Oh, yeah state stay competitive in the conference
Be before to state if you can which this year. I don't know
beat Georgia
Those are the three goals. That's it
Well on defense event, of course, you bring back Ronald Powell who was the number one player in the country
Not existant last year, but that was not a will muskamp coach defense. Correct. Correct. I'm not gonna
I'm not gonna throw him out of the bus, but of course Jorneus Jeekens the studs in order back
Genores that guy that is NFL first round top 10 guy that he can as that floor to feel beast
The schedule as usual to SEC. It's a war of attrition. Well, the first couple of weeks. You got off floor a floor
You started for Atlantic you a bee Tennessee could get dicey and that's a that's a 330 you Eastern games
That's a day game, which is good for us because I don't like going to Rocky top at night
I think Tennessee's improved just a hair at Kentucky when then you go to Bama
The first of October. I don't know. No, Bama comes to the swamp. Yeah, Bama's in the swamp
You know, Alabama's a team that's getting a lot of preseason hype
I need to research Bama a lot more breaking their new quarterback new running back. Well, I mean, it's just I need to see Bama
But next thing of course here's here's the juggernaut at LSU
At night at LSU at Auburn and then you go to the cocktail party in Jacksonville
I think Florida's lucky to come out that deal one in three
Consider that a victory
With this group of course you beat Vandy then you've traveled to Columbia, they'll ballcoach
Furman did always have to play that weird game between South Carolina and Florida State. I think I think that Florida
I could pick and choose here six wins six wins seven at best. I
Think that brutal that that October road game road game mutual stadium game. That's a tough stretch three and oh
I don't see three and oh next stretch
I could see I could see one in three. I think if you beat Georgia
We have to be Georgia. I think if you beat Georgia if you're Florida in that stretch if you beat Georgia
I think that's successful as yes
CJ Wilson gives up the the dinger to Prince Fielder got three on the board nationally
So I wouldn't go be all star
I wouldn't go that I wouldn't go that far see see guys seven wins makes you bow eligible and then in a get in a year
I'm giving you a mulligan
Yeah, and you can make a cap one a decent cap one bowl or a decent bowl
I'm good with that. Yeah Florida. I love I mean there a cotton bowl cotton bowl. Yeah. Yeah, I see
Cotton bowl. I'm there. It's gonna take more some more than seven wins to get in the cotton bowl LSU had ten wins
It got in last year. It's gonna take more. It's gonna take more. Yeah, but the SEC was it's brutal
As far as the teams that the teams in the records there and they're even worse this year
So the SEC you're they're not the power this year. They're not the power this year SEC
They're not the power this year, but I just think it's gonna take a little bit more juice to get in that cotton bowl
my opinion
That's cliffhanger like I said Wisconsin not saying national title
I could see them repeating winning the big 10 back in the Rose Bowl Florida not off the map
They still have Florida town still have Florida guys
I'm gonna say seven eight eights to max if they go three and oh in the middle of October
Katie bar the door
They could run the table
But I think at that LSU at Auburn in the cocktail party in Jacksonville
That's three very tough stretch of games, but do you think will can shock the world in year one Texas
Must-champ no, I just don't think the teams has developed is what it was when when other people got there
I agree I don't think he can shock the world in your one, but I think he can show I
Think he can show that he can coach a team and people are gonna take notice
Yes, whether he wants them good or bad people will take notice of Florida because of the situation this year
Not because they're the Florida Gators not because they pay in the swamp
What can will must-champ do this is the trial by fire?
Well, I've always I've always said that I didn't know at the time of his
Employment when he was rooming to be head coach and waiting at Texas
I didn't know if I was ready to hand will must-champ the keys to the University of Texas as a Texas fan
Same thing with Georgia. I just don't know if Mill must is a guy
I'd like to see him maybe gone to a and I'm just pulling teams out of the air here
So don't mark it down. Maybe him go to it's tough
Maybe him go to a Purdue be a head coach Nevada just like Chizek did went to a house
I almost ate blew the horrible would you would you give him a Nevada Nevada a small Oregon state Washington state a smaller school
Where must-champ could kind of get his feet wet on being the head guy, but like I said trial by fire that's true
It's coming. Yeah North Texas. Yeah, completely a small. Do you believe in the green?
They got a heck of a stadium building on this they do sir, but um, I just that's my deal with with with much champ
I'd like to see my maybe have seen him go somewhere and be the head guy at a smaller scale
Then a superpower one of one of my five superpowers. Yes, sir. You said you said you said it on this on your blog and on this show
I just don't know if I hand milled will guess what oh you did it with Bob stoop's valid point and that's it that's a great
Ohio State did it with with Tressel. They won a national title. Yeah, Notre Dame did it with Charlie wise
Other side of the coin. Yes, so it happens sometimes you it happens that way
There is your yeah, you're right. There's there's oh you at stoop's and there's Notre Dame and Charlie wise you talk about two
Totally different from the never been a head coach department in college and going to somebody of a very very high profile
It's a it's a craps you Florida. I'll be perfectly a fan and man. We're well. We're real
For the fan for the final time right for the fan. I'll give you one one time
They'll give you one seat. Yeah, we'll give you a mo again Texas fans are doing it right now. Yeah, oh you oh you did it too
For the state did it last year. Yeah, oh you did it with eight and four
They'll give you one year these mega fan bases two and three strong competitive, but he that seat is on fire on those type of schools
Absolutely
Fanger over whoo man. That's a good. That was a great on-campus segment. We all we had was clicker. Let's talk wrong
One quick headline
Finley fit filling in a I like to fight
Said an interview this week. He was let go from from WWE. They were doing a house show and they were doing the
The national anthem and he did an unplanned the run-in in the middle of the national anthem
To try to generate heat with them with a match he was in with the Miz and
That went over like a fart in church because there were some national guard members on hand and
That led to his demise with WWE my could my question to you sir is
Was this deserved and if so why if not why not 30 days of suspension no pay I agree with that
I don't know if you fire a guy over this. I mean I saw where he was going with it
But see this is also the flip side of Mike of my coin with that with the fake Barack Obama and the National Guard saluting him
Where I had that problem that's true 30 days no pay is the same company. Yeah, I don't think it's a viable defense
It maybe was it off heat. Yes, but did the guy go out and burn the flag? No
Did we do a fake assassination be heading in middle ring like we did before no 30 days no paid done
Yeah, I just thought that was weird and Finley was the guy that trained all the deepest you know
I think why he's a and I believe this if he's from him if he's an American guy
It might not be severe being a foreigner during our national anthem could have had something to do with that maybe maybe maybe I'll play in conspiracy guy
Come see oh in
Spiracy, there we go
Hot punks says in his opening
His opening
Promote that he's gonna win the belt and then he's gonna change it and you know what I say to that
Give this guy the belts because I'm gonna tell you something change that belt
Please I beg you um, you know, I think him making that statement. I know for a fact
They put it on him. Oh, yeah, there's no doubt in my mind. There's no doubting this is all a work
And then seeing a good fire. Yes, because remember that's the stipulation scene has been wanting time off anyway
This CM punk. This is all of work. You know what'd be the greatest thing or Vince turns on scene up
This I mean this thing then you turn then you turn him into
You turn him into bishop. You turn him into Austin. Yeah, you turn you turn seen it in Austin
And I don't know if we want to go that far, but I think there's no I mean I may be proven wrong
I
Think CM punks under contract right now
Here's my question in my next week and I may be nitpicking here and please feel free to call me out on such if I am
Of course last night raw last night's raw being the go home show for money in the bank for those of you that don't know
What that means that means this is the final show their final show before the pay-per-view Smackdown will have theirs on Friday night
They're taping it right now
Does the go home show have to be nothing but an infomercial for the pay-per-view or am I out and am I nitpicking too much or
I'm thinking about this is it and I know if you took this back a year ago
This is not a big main event. This is the biggest main event
WWE's had on any card in six months. This is a
I would say this year. Yeah, this is a major actually kind of rounds out. We're in the middle of a major storyline right here
Mm-hmm is a guy leaving if he's staying punk is this over a guy as I've seen minus triple H
It's don't costy Boston and the rock. He's over and the thing about CM punk to me
This is a guy that's made himself over. Oh, yeah
This is a guy that's literally taken lemons and turned it into lemonade
This is a guy that Vince finally went okay go do something and not only did he do something
He set the world on fire two weeks ago on raw and we went whoa
Whoa, I am very I want to spend a lot we will spend a lot of time this made events Sunday at Fox and Hound
But I am I am ready to see this match and see how it ends comes out and says I want open negotiations on camera with Vince in the
ring
Vince calls him Phil work, which I'm assuming it's real me. I need to look at the best part was the ice cream bars
Yeah, he wants to bring part of his contract. He wants to bring back for WWE. Can you ever have one of those?
Yes, horrible and they always put the spares in there. There was never you never got Hogan
You never got sergeant fall ever got savage always got like cocoa beware and the big boss man or some real wheels off
so
But I mean is this guy finally getting I mean is this
Let me let me step back. I gotta calm down a little bit
If you put him his real name is fill up Jack Brooks or October 26 1978
Does this push work before now?
No, I think nobody sees it also think they sign cult Kavanaugh
You don't give that guy that much free pub and not in not signing we talked about this in pre show
I think with with cold Kavanaugh the guys got a past wellness and the guy makes no bones about that
He likes to roll the doobies a little bit
That's the guy that you're gonna have to monitor
But my other thing with cold Kavanaugh is this is a guy who works kind of a goofy bit
And you've got to be very careful with guys that work goofy bits or they turn into Eugene
Yes, that's true
So it is this guy if I've been talked about last week on raw
I only take calculated risks CM Punk is a calculated risk
I don't know that cold Kavanaugh at this time in his career is a calculated risk because I've watched this guy
I watched him on ROH. He is an injury risk too. This is a guy that's had injuries in his past
I think if you bring him in you bring him in as a guy that works with punk
Maybe you do an WO-esque kind of a thing where they're kind of working outside the system
I think whatever creative has caught with this. I hope this isn't lightning in a bottle
Because we need more stuff like this in this industry if we're gonna get this thing turned around
I don't care if you're WWE. I don't care if you're TNA. I don't care if you're ROH
I don't care if you're the company formerly known as PCW up the street
We need created to be exactly that and if they can't
Then we need to get people in there that will because we know there are people out there that can't book because we've seen it
Before yeah, this is up to me. This is a huge huge huge crossroads
Sunday night live on pay-per-view
Formerly the Rosemont horizon at one time the all-state center brother in Chicago Illinois home of wrestling
It's 23 CM Punk's hometown. I like we mentioned the being like a gangster on the side of Cena's car in my hometown
CM see I didn't know that until recently. CM Punk is doing everything right. He's cutting killer promos in a PG era
He's he's definitely as we like to say walking the line
But I'm I'm excited about this. I'm more excited about Sunday night than I was WrestleMania because this is a major story line
Developing Vince don't shoot it. I do I love how punk said in his promo. I
Win this thing in my contract. I headline WrestleMania against whoever I want
And I agree with you put the belt on this kid
He held it before he is the top
He'll in the company now has he held this order just a world title. He's held just a world title
So he's held the world title and the ECW title has not held this title. He's also been R.O.H. Champion
We've also talked about him being a guy. He could be one of those guys that if he does jump
He can tip the scales. Yes, but my thing with CM Punk is he wouldn't touch TNA with a 10 foot pole unless they gave him the entire company
Looking and the book
This thing Sunday if you're smack down
You almost bail on this pay-per-view. We'll have our money in the bank match
But that's all we're doing because there's nothing for the first time. I can say to you as you sit here in my studio
I'd our studio. I apologize as you sit there in front of me right now. I can tell you for the first time
And I can't remember how long I am okay with John Cena closing the card
Oh, you got to absolutely because this match the only thing that could make this match better is
If you just go straight to hell in a self and just let these two let them book this match
Let them write the whole thing because this match
If it's done right because we've seen creative screw up before him if this is done right
This could be match of the year by a country a mile not with Cena Cena. I can't work
Punk and carry up. I think punk and carry it. I don't know if you can carry it to match it a year
I have you got to have two guys working
Yeah, but if punk's taking all the bumps and the guy will take the bumps
I'll see that has to do is deliver them. Yeah, so you can carry this match. I don't see that
I think punk and carry this man. I think it'll be a decent match
I don't think punk and carry enough to be match of the year. I'm not willing to take it. Where's the bar set right now?
You know, I don't know that's up to PWI. I don't know if I don't know if we've seen a match of the year
But that's what I'm saying. What's the bar set if this is the bar?
I think if you went right now, it'd be undertaker triple H if voting ended today
If voting into today voting into today, you have to go triple H
Undertaker at WrestleMania this past year if the if the ballots were do it at 905 tonight
Which then also you you said his name and begs the question
Triple H has been advertised for this card. What do you do with them?
Does he cost Sina or does he cost punk? I
Almost think he has to cost punk
Because of the way because I don't think I don't need Mick Mann to house divide it again
Yes, I am very excited about this as we'll be at Fox in Hounds Sunday nightlife paper view
I'm gonna tell you right now folks get there early. Oh absolutely this this thing has that feel that
There will be a lot of folks there
Absolutely, so definitely be there live pre-show starts at six. We'll break this whole thing down from start to finish
We'll spend more time on this this match mostly in general. We have more fun on
Remote that I think we do even in studio
Because we love that you guys get to interact with us. You get to actually watch us do this thing that we do
Yes, you know, this isn't just two guys sitting in chairs throwing paper wads at each other
I mean, there's times when Cody and I are standing up standing up and you know get just just getting getting into the argument or the
Agreeance of whichever you prefer
Sunday
Plei I am begging to the gods of wrestling do not let creatives because like I said
I'm starting to come around on this being a pay-per-view because it adds so many variables to things
Last last year Kane cashed it in that night
Who says triple H doesn't insert him into Ross Mayan the bank wins it punk wins each cash is in I
Mean or you know Alberto Del Rio cash is in
We'll get to that Sunday. I will say see a punk-jocking dropping the name look galos
Let's back off on that Sunday join us three bucks get you in the door
You see the pay-per-view pre-show starts at six. Let's give this situation an Arizona
As
Right now bottom of the fifth a L trails 3-1 off a huge Prince field or Homer off C. J. Wilson as of course
It is the all-star break and major league baseball. Whoo-hoo. Um, I'm gonna ask the obvious questions. Let's get to the that's recapped something
Go backwards and serve him with Derek Geter. Is there a congratulations there?
Cheater is there more of a dramatic way to get a 3,000 hit that a home run?
Nope, well, it's a grand slam as now one Matt Garcia as a footnote to history as he gave up the 3,000 hit
We're jeter went five for five in the game
So he started out at 299 ended up with 3,000 for whenever he is he he never was this just for this
He's heating up jeter jeter's dinged up. I don't in this next point here
I don't mind Derek jeter missing off-star game. I do wish jeter jeter and a rod. Yeah a rods out four to six with a torn with a torn
Maniscus, but
The deal with with jeter is I wish the guy would have got on a plane
flew to Arizona and let all of the major league baseball celebrate his 3,000 hit I agree and in tip your hat to the crowd
I think jeter owed it to the fans. Yeah to show up in Arizona
Stay on the white lines get announced tip your hat and let everybody
Feel this moment instead of going I'm emotionally and physically drained which I'm sure is
But Derek jeter court. I mean a rod out four to six torn Maniscus. The strange thing about this he played five weeks with it
But he's also been terrible on the basis and terrible at the plate
So Robinson could know last night
I've read saw it versus a Yankee last night in the whole brunt derby
Gonzalez was I was sitting at a local Applebee's there in Clinton
Girls go right?
Don't want to give away anything in all pass
I thought you're talking I'll look hard
And I texted you and I said Adrian Gonzalez is I mean this guy crush the ball former ranger. Yep
And then
Things got a little weird
The story with Robinson can know is his dad was pitching to it
Robinson can know yeah, that was his dad. Yeah, that was his dad nice. That's kind of a cool story. I like the new format
I don't know if I do or not. I kind of like the every man for himself thing and there every person's got a person
I can win a house today. I like I like the charity of it. I'm not a big fan of the home run derby anyway
Especially in this stadium. I am I don't that's one of the stadiums. I don't like really
I really like the diamond vaccine. Yeah, I'm not
It's got the retractable roof. You got the pool out there people out there whooping it up having a good time
I loved the home. I I loved the home run derby uniforms last night
That was pretty cool how the logos had the snake skin in it. Yeah, it was really neat
I always loved the whole state farm thing. They don't need over a half a million dollars to charity
Yeah, as Robinson can know wins and
Hits 12 in the final round to Adrian Gonzalez 11 and that 12th brother was gone the story
His have you seen the guy fall out of the stands trying to catch the 24-carat gold ball yet look
It's front page of Yahoo after the tragedy. We had here locally with Shannon Stone as we mentioned at the very top of the show
I
Don't know what they're gonna do to keep these guys from jumping out of the stands. I don't know
We've got to do something because this is getting ridiculous
But the all the all-star game the thing about the all-star game with me is I wish they take the statement out of it matters
Right now to make you think who do you think your oldest tenured A.L. All-Star right now that's in that dugout no the whole game
Oh the whole game who's in that dugout
Oldest tenured oldest tenured all-star in appearances
Big Poppy Michael Young with seven
When did Michael Young get old
That's my and no pun intended there, but you know why should we talk about Michael Young being the longest tender ranger now
He's the longest in when did Michael Young get old but Michael Young with seven appearances in the all-star game
He's the he's the longest tenured all-star in this game. Wow
I just that's amazing to me that how I mean just about all the Yankees sabathea pulled out
I mean Kano and I think they had a reliever is the only guy playing
Texas had six which was great walking of course being coached by one Ron Washington
Helps with that too, but man the big guys seem to pull out of this deal and
That that has to stop it's for the fans show up and at least tip your cap and sit in the dugout
Then when the games over get back on your private jet and fly back home
I think you owe it to the fans to show up
In my gut opinion great discreet. No, I'm right there with you
I just I think having it mean something adds to it personally
Well the Giants say they wouldn't know on the world series without home-foot advantage last year that is BS
I don't think they wanted it all linked it
You know, I just it was the dumbest Brian Wilson is the dumbest athlete in the world
Wow
He's blown sick safe this year flash in the pan
So I have a very very good October Mariana Rivera also hammer of God hammer of God didn't play the all-star game
I don't know what happens. I don't know what keeps these guys
Act interested in the major league baseball all-star game
So but as all-star break comes to a
Bring the screeching haul to the first
First happens over first house over in the books a A.O. East Boston won up over New York Tampa now falling to six back
Tampa Tampa had it go in of course. They lose got to get on the bike and ride race
They lose two out of three in the Bronx over the weekend
Here's the tightest race and I think one of the most interesting divisions on the baseball as Detroit now half-game up over Cleveland in
Central then I think them the white socks the Indians and tigers. I think that's gonna be it all year deal
As they're gonna go battle by that division absolutely I picked Detroit beginning of the year and the preview
I'm gonna keep in that way Texas now won up over Anaheim
The Rangers won seven straight
To go into the break Texas they have a better record now than they did last year here comes the second half
Yeah, and I think Texas I think Texas needs to make a move at the trade deadline
I don't know if it's I don't know what they don't need a bat
They need I think they need bullpen help and I think they need another starting pitcher
Derek Holland look great Friday night or Saturday night and then he may come out first game off the break and give up 10 in the first
Most inconsistent pitching staff behind absolutely absolutely
Over in the NL another season another series that into the All-Star breaks
I thought was fun as
Philadelphia now just three and a half of over Atlanta as Atlanta took two out of three from Philly over the weekend
Yes, we did in Philadelphia. I'm gonna take Atlanta needs a big bat if you can get Batista out of Toronto
Katie bar the door and that's a room. That's twice you use that tonight. I can't borrow a lot of doors here
Katie
There go the wheels
Philadelphia started like I said so Atlanta
I think Atlanta just needs a big bat and I think they can really make some noise not only in that division
But in the whole National League right great over in the central Milwaukee St. Louis dead dead tide
The story in this division is the Pittsburgh pirates are one
Game out of first place their best records since 1991
They're finally doing something God for former Texas Ranger hitting coach Kurt Kirtle
Clint Hurdle is the head coach there. We'll see got to play two halves the baseball
Over in the West San Francisco three up on Arizona. I think this I think this division's in the bag already
So early San Diego's terrible the Dodgers are well, I don't know whose words the Padres of the Dodgers Colorado's nine and a half Arizona's four
I think you're gonna see the defending world champions kind of run away and hide with the NL West
Okay, to me real quick biggest stories a second half for this
The AL East we're gonna looks like gonna be two games
I think the winner of the AL East I've already said I think represents the AL in the world series whether it's Boston
Whether it's New York. Well, I think if your division ends with East. Yeah, that's those are the two you're gonna have to watch
Yeah, who gets the thing was Yankee and Yankees in Boston who gets the prize out of for agency who gets the guy the Yankees in my opinion
Need a bat. They also need some bull pin help. So that's and then the AL West is Anaheim ever gonna wake up
This was a world champion Anaheim team
That dominated this division for many many years and all I heard this year, and I reported I said it all
Anaheim they get better just by getting healthy. Yeah, well guess what Jack they're healthy and there's still a game on a first and not playing good baseball
And of course the AL East Atlanta if Atlanta gets a big bat. Come on boys. I'm telling you this is gonna be
1990s all over again. Don't get me started if they get a bat Atlanta's dangerous if they can get a bat
I need my braves to get on the bike and ride MLB talk is we are
Second half well really world champions are really the championship is one in the second half
Yep, always got a place second half baseball Pittsburgh. I'll play a second half baseball the Metz next to eat them next year
Boy Seattle free fell so
You are listening to the clubhouse with Robin Cody. We are live every Tuesday night on you stream
WWW that the clubhouse with the Robin Cody dot com follow us on Twitter our show feed clubhouse
W. R. N. C. My personal feeder. Yes, that robber of an ERV. I am and I am
Cody P. S. Hawk and that is COD. Why yes, those of you playing the home game. Let's talk a little football
Well, we now have a we now have the first casualty in my opinion of the
NFL lockout this comes there and off season anyway
So yeah, this comes down last night as the great. I'm gonna say great Mike Vrayble
Retires. He is now the new linebacker coach in Ohio state my question to you is this
How many more of these are coming? Well, of course if you don't know Mike Vrayble former Patriot great one-off was member of all three new England
English school teams Kansas City
There may be a few I just
I don't know. I don't know what kind of money
Vrayble was making it Kansas City. He's a I thought he was a second tier guy
I don't know was he could have been dinged up. We don't know the story. I think right now
I don't think you'll see very many because I think they're all fixed to get paid I
Think everybody holds out of course my biggest hold out this year
I thought Keith Brooking the Cowboys linebacker would already be gone by this point. I thought he'd been he would retire
I don't know if he's doing that or not, but
Good luck or anybody going to Ohio state this year is gonna be great
I think your scholarships are limited next year and then a year after that. I think it's a it's a mismatch
But good luck to him. He might be their next head coach. You never know
so
You are talking you're sitting now. I thought last time I checked on this show
You said the deal has to get done this week. I well here it is a deal getting done
But the owners having owners meeting July 21st in Atlanta at that point
That's where they have to rectify the deal
The deal holding this thing back right now is free agency. I mean, excuse me the rookie cap
The the players want a four-year deal. I saw the players want a four-year deal and the owners want a five-year deal are
With the rookie wage scale. They don't want to guarantee a bunch of money
That's where we're at. I promise you right now
What Cam Newton's paid this year is not gonna hold up the start to the NFL season
I will say this the Hall of Fame game is done
With this with the new July 21st deadline being set now done as an it's going to happen or done as a not going to happen
I believe that the the Hall of Fame game is is an afterthought. I think it'd be a great way
So it's not going to happen. I don't think it's gonna happen if you got the deal done this week
I think it's feasible also think any team traveling
Two training camp is that's done to Jerry's back to canceling San Antonio again
Because you got you three agency will start the 23rd and it's gonna be a mad scrambled so if you're planning on traveling to certain
Train camps
Not gonna happen, but this deal
Chef Adam Schaefter who we've mentioned if you want to keep it like I follow him in Chris Mortensen
I'm sure it will networks a good one. There are there. They are all saying the hard stuff's over
It's this rookie wage scale
And I'm gonna tell you can you tell us can kill you can Newton's check is not going to keep the NFL from kicking
Off at Lambo Field Packer Saints. Has anybody dropped him yet?
Carolina. Oh, I was thinking to her. I'll probably I'm sorry
So that that's where we stand what his paycheck is is not going to kill this season
But speaking for you agency like I said it will start July 23rd
Language in the July 21st deadline is saying that free agency will be three days long
So you're gonna get five weeks of moves in three days
I'm gonna tell you right now Jack
Free agency will be fast and furious. Oh, you think?
Of course the big one right now the rumor right now is not it's gonna hurt you
But I think it's a good thing in a backup role the big one. I was Vince young to Miami
I
Think as a backup QB
You're gonna give Hini a shot. You've got a house move. That's that's the big one Vince young to Miami
I'm not holding my breath here. So I think the Osawa. I think the safety
I think he ends up with Washington because I think Washington's the only team stooped up to pay him a boatload of money
I just this is if they're there's some guys. There's not a lot. Yeah, everybody's trying to do something
Yeah, there's not a lot. That's the big free agent Vince young we'll see
Another guy of course, you know that with the retirement of Kerry Collins Matt Hasselbach's a free agent in Seattle
I'm hearing Minnesota are possibly Arizona or staying in Seattle. I think from that Hasselbach you're a B-quarter back
Anyway, stay in Seattle. Yeah, finish your career you moving there does not get those
Two weeks since 1848 him making a move anywhere does not get that team closer to a ring
But those guys be mentioned
July 21st if it's not done by then I think then you start losing preseason games, which wouldn't bother me at all
I'm on blue isn't preseason games would not bother me
I so until I turn my TV on and I'm seeing live football
I'm just standing by the fact that this season's not going to happen
I just so sick of it's got to happen by this state and then that day comes and oh, no, no, it's got to happen by this state
Get it done. I just don't need I don't need four preseason games in my life. I can handle to yeah
I'm gonna miss you preseason games as long as we kick off live at Lambo packer saint september september
9th or 9th sets September 7th a Saturday no September 11th is a Sunday so it'd be the Thursday night before would be the night
I was at the 8 11 10 8 8 8 so September 8 live at Lambo
So that's in a fill talk street lights on street light is on it is time for the list that we do each and every week right here on the clubhouse of the Robin Cody
The pendulum swings back to me to a list. We were going to do before capital punishment
We decided to push it back. We were then going to do it for chicken studio. I decided to call an audible on that because it was chicken studio
We're doing that list tonight. No more messing around
We talked earlier about CM Punk and and how he's kind of worked the bit
So I put together a list for you sir of top 10 guys who I think have benefited from what we call repackaging and what that means is
Came out bit didn't work go away for a while come back change up the bit and these are guys that I think have benefited from such things
number 10 a guy that I know you can't stand
But you've got to admit Mick Foley every time they repackage him it just seems to work
Yeah, I
I guess they made a man kind of they made it work. Yeah, I guess dude love they made it work. Yeah
I mean if he's just to me I don't think you ever have to the books and everything else to me
I think Mick Foley to me I agree with Rick. He's always going to be a glorified stunt man in my opinion
Oh, nothing can change that
number nine Randy or
Yes, but I wish Randy would get back to having I like this Randy now because he's I think he benefited from a change that a change again
Yeah, it seems to be Randy Randy did the same path as a guy that we'll talk about later
Where he came in and the bit didn't work so he went away and he came back and they put him in a stable
And got him to learn some things and then he broke out from that stable on his own if the world title on him
Yep, but then path is somebody else also a third generation somebody decided to make him the terminator for years
And I don't like the vocal robotic Randy or so they've changed his bit a couple times. I like this version of Randy
You know what it took took him to the papers
Number eight the Miz this was a guy that was slowly drowning because they put him as their correspondent for the diva search
Turning him heal and making him the Miz
Great sky rocket test absolutely number seven book or tea a guy that we talked about on this show
We weren't sure he could be okay on his own not in a tag team
You could ask
You could ask the
18 to 25 crowd right now name the tag team book or tea was in and they couldn't do it
No, absolutely not so and that to me is is is proper repackaging
Because you get him to be a breakout star and you don't have to worry about his past. I sure yeah
Number six x-pock
Yeah, as the one two three kid the bit just wasn't working to me you turn him heal you let him grow out his perm
You put sunglasses and a bandana on him and you reveal him is
Scott Halls cabana boy
Guy guy goes into the stratosphere exactly
Exactly, I think that's it. That's a great one. I like Sean. I just I think Sean
Wasted a lot of years with the dope. I agree. That's just my opinion
number five
The new age outlaws. Oh, absolutely. I mean road dog as the rowdy that that angle that was terrible
Well because Jarrett left the company
Well, but that but that angle was bad. Yeah, but the main part reason that made that angle bad was
You book an angle and then the next day Jarrett leaves the company
So that's not what you're going to do. You're an Armstrong
You know Billy gun after the smoking guns terrible didn't work out
You put them both together you put them in DX and it works. Yes, absolutely
Yeah, again, you separate them out doesn't work for either one of them unless you put one of them in another tag team which TNA did
Number four
You can't debate it. I'm shocked. He's not higher on the legs
I was gonna put him higher on the list, but then when you look at who's above him. Yeah
Four is right for him triple H hunter herst helmsley my cat is named after him
When he was doing the blue blood thing
It was kind of stretching along
When you finally when Sean finally got Vince to let him be him and
Triple H and be the game be the cerebral assassin
It just made triple H the Hall of Famer that he will be some death. Yes, absolutely
number three
Turning Hogan heel and 1996. This was one of the smartest things air because a lot of people at that point thought Hogan was done
Oh, he was as an in ring guy. Hogan as a character was not as over as he was before
Hogan as a wrestler
About as limited as John Cena
Hogan nobody he was his
his
Relevance is the word I'm looking for was fading at an exponential rate
Bash at the beach comes along Hogan drops the leg on macho
You talk about breathing it gave him another 20 years almost on his career
Now he's starting to win again, so now what are you gonna do?
But if that doesn't happen you don't have Hogan now
I say that fully and wholeheartedly number two is this guy
Limited guy
But you think about it Rocky my via comes out you put the intercontinental
Championship belt on the guy he couldn't draw heat if you set him on fire with gasoline
Prove to be that all you have to do in this business now talk
Take him away
Bring him back again like Orton third generation put him with a stable
You put the world title on him. Yeah, he breaks away from the stable the guy can do no wrong
This is to me these last two guys are that prove to me that all you have to do in this business is talk
But in the time of the attitude era
That's what Vince needed Vince needed people that could entertain on every aspect on television
You listen to me the guys that could do that at that time with Vince
Sean and he was out
That's the list brother. I just
The rocks always been that might be a P.O.I. for me one night
I just this to me guys like him in Austin proved all you had to do was talk
Your mat your matches
But in the attitude era that's what Vince needed Vince needed guys that could entertain
And unfortunately
It came with a price and I hate to say that
But it's true
You you had to some guys had to sacrifice in ring talent for stick talent
And number one Cody said it
Yeah, oh yeah stone cold from life Austin, but you know that bitch started in in ECW
Oh, yeah, so Paul eat dangerously, but he credited with more with the creation of the stone colds not Vince McMahon
Well Steve Austin probably gets a chunk of credit, but that was more of a Steve Austin dangerously deal. He's a dangerously guy
So
Number one guy that benefit from from packaging we went from stunning Steve even then Steve always works stiff
And I just
Some of those guys I just I don't know man. I
Austin great great talker great look
Uh decent in the ring. I think everything changed with Austin every broke his neck. Yep. Everything everything with him in the ring
Got a little gingerly. Yeah, but great talker like I said great look
I feared I did one thing I didn't like about it is
Once Austin got so over
He never lost
Yeah, and that was something I think got rock was the same way. Yeah, they got very and that's like seen them now
