The Clubhouse – Episode 38
Read Transcript
Hello to all of you
A little bit of technical difficulties to start the show, but I think we've got everything under control.
I don't speak so soon. It is eight o'clock on the east coast. It is five o'clock on the west coast.
Welcome to wherever you are. It is Tuesday night. In the year of our Lord 2011, it is March the 29th.
It is season one episode 38 of the clubhouse with Robin Cody. Welcome. Hope you're doing well with the weather changes.
As we're having some here at the studio as well. I am Rob and for 38 weeks straight, I am joined by Cody. Hello.
I think we've got our microphone situation under control this week. We had some issues last week, but I think we've got them back under control.
We are currently being invaded by a furry creature who doesn't seem to understand that a fan is just spinning blades.
We welcome you. We appreciate you being here with us each and every week whether you listen live or on the archive.
We still love you the same. We start each week with corrections.
Corrections. Corrections. We've got to actually a couple this week. I've got to call from Pricewaterhouse today.
We talked last week on the show about this Randy Orton on camera situation and we were originally told that this young lady that has accompanied him the last couple of weeks was his real wife. She is not.
Kind of had a feeling. Another playboy playmate apparently.
Chad did prove it last night over here at the house when we were watching Raw. He did pull up a picture of Randy and his real wife.
Randy is so worried. She's still a pretty girl with his real wife, but maybe she doesn't want to be on camera.
There is one more that Cody did not have on this run sheet. Last week Cody said that last week's episode of Superstars was going to be the last one.
The last episode of WWE Superstars will happen next week. The Thursday after WrestleMania will be the final episode of WWE Superstars on WGN.
We're not always perfect, but when we are, we like to have no seconds. I'm sorry, wrong, wrong. I got my reference just crossed that apologize.
I believe this is the second week in a row that we've started with this next segment. Am I correct, sir?
That is correct. So let's...
Oh, turn that down. My bad. We're working on a laptop.
I was like, man, hey, that's me.
You were right. I came in a little bit early with a lack of technical problems.
Just go to the...
We'll get it there. Don't worry about it.
We're going to start with a little NASCAR talk.
What happened on Sunday, sir?
Well, you had something that doesn't happen just a whole lot.
In a NASCAR race, you had the winner determined on the final lap and just...
It was one of them things. Jimmie Johnson's...
He's a good race car driver. Of course, we all know that. He is the defending multiple time champion over again.
And I think that Kevin Harbick just got the best of him on that final lap and just closed out the race strong.
And that's just the way it went down.
So, Kevin Harbick, he had to have that win for a guy that a lot of people had high hopes for...
It did not...
It did not... the season did not start well for Kevin Harbick to say the least.
But he's still on the race, though, didn't he?
He's still on the race, but it's...
For a guy that they were talking about that was going to compete for the Cup.
His first couple races this year, you know, had the big DNF in Daytona.
And then he had a real shaky start in Vegas.
And his season did not get off to the time of start.
I think him or his team owner, Richard Childress, thought that it was going to get off to in the least.
But it's still early.
Oh, it's early, but usually you want to get a big jump on that kind of stuff.
So...
Next stop, Texas.
Right down the road, a piece from us.
Yeah, Texas Motor Speedway, under the lights.
They will do a Saturday night race at Texas Motor Speedway.
First time ever, it's a complete legit sellout.
One thing that...
This is one of the tracks NASCAR can go to twice a year and almost guarantee themselves a sellout every time.
And we are completely under the lights this year.
Are we not?
Yes, we're no day night.
This will be a complete night race.
So does that mean it's not going to start till...
It will probably drop the flag about 730.
So that adds a little bit more excitement.
You know what's so much you can do with the NASCAR race that's going around a track.
That's the way they kind of sizzle it up.
It's a night race or something like that.
So for you, this is a big weekend.
If I was going, yes.
I'll definitely watch the race Saturday night.
But yeah, night races are always fun because it's something different.
You get to see the cars down to the lights, which make the cars pop a little bit more and stuff like that.
So...
We're going to get the standings here just a minute.
We want to remind you that you are listening to the Clubhouse of the Rob and Cody live each and every week right here on UStream.
We're here at 8 on the East Coast 5 on the West Coast.
We're hoping that we get to see a bunch of you join us this coming Sunday for Wrestlemania 27.
Can we tell them all about it?
Yeah, we will be at Fox and Hound in Richardson, Texas at 75 in Campbell.
Wrestlemania pre-show will run from 5 to 6.
This is the biggest WWE pay-per-view of the year.
And it doesn't get any bigger in this.
Now, this may not make some of people's opinion.
It may not be a big of a deal to me.
It is into a lot of people in this listening community it is.
So a bunch of drink specials live pre-show.
If you do have Clubhouse swag, feel free to wear it that evening.
We will be.
Yes.
We will all be in tow and swag.
So it's going to be a lot of fun.
They got pool tables, dart boards, a great menu, great weight staff.
It's a lot of fun out there.
Short drive if you're in the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex.
Like I said, 75 in Campbell Road.
Just west of Central.
You're going to see...
You're going to be able to see a lot of things right there in that little plaza.
There's an office max right behind the McDonald's is where we will be.
Remember, this is a six o'clock, not seven o'clock, start time for this pay-per-view.
So we're going to be on the air at the latest at five o'clock.
Even if you are not a wrestling fan, make sure you join us.
Yes.
Be a lot of fun.
Be a lot of fun that night.
Get a lot of stuff going on with a lot of our friends.
Maybe we've never seen before.
We'd like to meet all you people that we've never seen before.
And just kind of see, kind of see what all that's about with some of you people.
What do you think of the show?
That sort of thing.
And if you're not a drinker, the food's very good there.
Yes.
Remember this coming Sunday.
I mean, if you're any form of a wrestling fan, you know WrestleMania.
Yes.
It's in five days.
Absolutely.
But again, even if you're not a wrestling fan, we want to meet you.
Make sure you are there.
Yes.
Be a lot of fun out there.
Advertising.
Advertising.
Advertising this.
We want to get a lot as many people out there as we can to the show and have a really good
time with it.
Julie says John's planning to be there looking forward to seeing him.
Julie, come with him.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
But back to the NASCAR Sprint Cup.
Bring it to our standings.
Like I said, it's very, very, very early in this process.
There's a lot of people you know.
Carl Edwards now leads your Cup Point standings by nine points over Ryan Newman, followed
by Kurt Busch, Kyle Busch, Jimmy Johnson, Tony Stewart, Paul Menard, Juan Pablo Montoya,
Kevin Harvick, and you got two others tied for ninth.
Matt Kinseth, Casey Kane, and Dale Earnhardt in that magical 12th spot.
So now he's back in the running.
Yes.
The last spot to qualify for the chase is that 12th position.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the 88th Mountain Dew Arm National Armor, whatever.
He's racing this week.
He has that 12th and final spot in the chase.
But it is very, very early.
And Jr. usually does well at Texas.
Well, quick memo to Jr. It's a long way to the chase.
Yes.
So don't, don't, let's get, let's stay in this thing.
Yes.
One thing standing.
One thing Dale Jr. has done a lot this year.
He's kept the car out of the wall.
He hasn't had any big major wrecks.
He's just got to keep the car on the track.
And I think he can stay in these top 12.
You think he's going to stay here?
I think he can stay in the top 12.
I don't want to say win at all.
But I think he has to.
I think at this point in his career, he has to make the chase this year.
There's no if ands or if it's like we've talked about before.
He's changed everything else around him.
Yes.
There's only one thing left.
Yes, he's with Hendrix Motorsports.
He's got a great crew chief.
He's got great teammates with Gordon and Jimmy Johnson.
And he's got everybody around him.
At that point to me, it's just a driver error.
And you've got to replace the driver at that point.
Absolutely.
But good luck to him.
Texas Motor Speedway Saturday night.
Under the lots.
Man, watch turn two.
So.
Perfect timing, sir.
Yes.
As we move on to a little impact TNA news talk this week.
You mentioned something last week to me.
About talent not watching the show.
Yeah.
You know, I just saw this from being on Twitter during when impact airs,
which is 9 o'clock Eastern on Thursday nights.
Yes.
You're not aware.
Absolutely.
I saw this and said, hey man, great episode of this, great episode of that.
And I'm like, why aren't you all people watching your product?
And one of the people that he is referring to is one whole coconut.
And I said on last week's show not knowing anything at that point.
What is he watching idle?
Not only was he watching idle.
He was on idle while impact was on the air.
I don't know, man.
Does Hogan still equal ratings?
Well, the way they worked is there's a couple of guys in the competition this year
that are allegedly big wrestling fans.
And they had a pillow wrestling match at this mansion they're all living in.
And they were both standing on the stage together awaiting their fate.
And the video wall parts and here comes Hogan to let him know they're both safe.
And then he tells Seacrest that he's not safe and throws a bunch of Seacrests
who jumps into the third row, selling it Sean Hogan style.
And I just sat there and I was strange.
My jaw was on the floor and my wife was like, why are you like this?
I go, this happened while impact was on the air.
And she looked at me like, ew.
Yeah, that's strange.
I don't know, man.
I think everybody over there in my opinion, I think everybody over there's mailed it in.
Except Dixie, she still thinks her's hope.
She's getting all empire on me.
No, there is another.
Then we go to the opening of impact.
Did you get to watch any of this?
Just a little bit, but I have got enough just to be generous about it.
The opening montage was done remix style and it was done with auto-tune.
It was just bad.
Barbed wire checking in, good to see you brother.
Thanks for coming in.
But there's auto-tune involved and scratchy scratchy on the video.
And it was really bad.
There's just update me and here we go.
I don't understand why.
Are we just showing off video equipment?
Is that what we're doing at this point?
I just, you know, and I find myself every week going.
What are we doing?
What are we doing?
What are we doing?
I think right now we say this every week.
It's one thing.
It's two.
It's a couple words.
It's four words.
Looking on the fly.
Exactly.
They don't know what the hell's going on with their product.
I mean, if we can, if you can't, yes.
I did notice Anderson referred to RVD as reefer van dam.
That was a little uncomfortable for me.
Do we need to drag that out?
Man, they need to generate some heat with somebody.
With somebody going on, they've got to get some heat around.
So if that's their way, do it, take pop shots at each other, whatever.
Let me ask you this.
Is the bit now, do they just go to the entire roster and say,
I want you to be oppressed.
I want you to tell, I want you to tell Hogan and Bishoff that they're holding you down.
Because that's all anybody did on this show for the first 20 minutes.
Well, I'm being held for my rematch.
And I'm being held back from getting the rematch that I never got,
because I never really lost the title because I got laid out of it.
Well, I just, it was, it was ad nausea.
Yeah.
You remember last week when you said you could write 20 minutes of Undertaker H?
I could write two hours of impact.
In about the same amount of time, if not less.
I said that last night.
I said that last night.
I'm not so sure.
I mean, up until last night, that thing just got real good last night.
I know that.
I'll talk about that later about Rawl Talk.
But you probably could.
I've always said, give me a, give me a checkbook.
Give me a year.
That clears.
Not like Paulie.
Yes.
Give me a checkbook.
Give me a year.
And give me, give me the book.
Bar wire, you just missed us talking about Hogan on idle.
I don't think that he needs money that badly.
I just think he can't not be in the spotlight.
Do you think Fox paid him?
Of course.
If you're on a show, you get paid an appearance fee.
If I go on Letterman tomorrow night, I get a check for five grand.
Yes.
Oh, really?
That's, that's, that's minimum.
Huh.
That is a minimum appearance fee for any show that you make appearance on.
That's in the sad contract, sir.
And you get health benefits.
Cool.
If you do, you have a sad card.
We go to our meters for the week.
We all, we had no dudes.
We had no jacks.
But we did have 15 brothers.
Hey, man.
So.
Now I use the word brother quite a bit.
Yeah, but not like Hogan does.
Brother.
Brother.
And we're going to talk about that a little bit later as well.
If you weren't sure, if you're just new to watching wrestling and you're like,
are some of these guys veterans, have some of these guys been around for a while?
Maybe they haven't.
Let me tell you something.
If you watched the first 20 minutes of impact, and believe me, I did watch the whole thing.
I'm not just focusing on 20 minutes, but everybody was like Matt Hardy.
I've been in this business so many years ago.
I was pride-eyed and bushy-tailed.
And Bully Ray.
I've been in this business so many years ago.
It was different.
Can we get away from this, please?
We know you've been in the business for forever in a day.
We get it.
It's like they're using that as a crunch to get the promo going.
To me right now, there's two guys that can do that.
To me, there's a lack of talkers over there.
But the ones that you...
You remember, back in the day during the Nitro days,
you could almost telegraph most of a Kevin Nash promo.
Exactly.
It would always start with, you know, you can do that now.
And then Scott Hall, hey yo, hey yo.
And everybody else was, let me tell you something.
Or if I was gonna pass the mic, it was, tell them about it.
X person.
Tell them about it, animal.
Yeah.
Same thing.
Have you heard, if you heard his music a little while ago,
Abyss returns after I linked the absence.
And so now, at lockdown,
it will be Abyss, Rick Flair, Bully Ray, and Matt Hardy
versus Fortune.
Now Fortune may be down a man,
because if you remember the previous week on Impact,
that Bully Ray put AJ through a table at a power bomb.
Yes.
They're saying, they just, they so oversold this thing.
You know, I just...
This Fortune bit, I said it on the run earlier,
just in this deal, in this immortal.
I disagree, I like Fortune.
And I like Fortune, but you gotta get immortal.
Break those guys up.
Immortal's not even immortal anymore.
What are they now?
If you're not...
If you're not Hogan, you've been in the business for like an hour and a half.
Weird.
But that's who Dixie handed the ball to of her company to take care of that.
And I just, I don't see that the relevance or the thinking in that type of stuff.
This is, and it's not like that I honestly believe
with the right people in the right places,
even with the talent they have right now,
they can turn it around.
Oh yeah.
It's not like I'm watching...
Well, New England Power Pro Wrestling.
That was for you.
They put their belt on me one week.
Don't believe everything you hear on this show.
Or, what was it?
PCW, down the road, in six months.
Yeah.
I mean, it's not like they're not working with that kind of a roster.
They've got people, AJ Styles,
they got the two best tag teams in the business.
We say this every week.
You've got talent on this roster.
Use it correctly.
It just, it blows my mind.
They're going anti-American on this deal.
Yes, they are.
Because now...
We talked about Hernandez.
He's gone heal.
He's got Serita and Rosita with him.
And then there's this other guy.
I really couldn't even tell you his name.
But he's a guy that you and I have talked about.
He was the OBW champion for a long time.
He's now in TNA with this faction.
I guess you can call it that.
But really, is there cheaper heat than anti-American?
Not right now.
Just like, is there a cheaper pop than Mick Fouldy's...
I'm in the city, I'm in.
Yes, I'm in Garland.
And no barbed wire, it was not Gino Hernandez.
Hernandez is a different Hernandez.
Handsome half breed, brother.
What are your favorites?
One of my leaders.
God rest him.
Yeah, no kidding.
It just...
Do I need this?
It's just like you said.
It's...
Bookie on the blind.
I feel like I need some old-timey B-movie.
Whatever, good luck.
I'm in Israel behind him.
Good luck, Kim.
I would love to see...
I am ready to see...
Him do something.
I think the kids are talent.
He's a lightweight and a heavyweight body.
This guy does things in an average match
that blow my mind on a weekly basis.
But my fear is if he jumps,
Vince isn't going to know what to do with him either
because obviously Dixie doesn't.
You take homicide away.
I thought LAX was a great tag team.
And then you get this.
I just...
It kills me.
It kills me what's going on over there.
And then during this match,
Velvet Sky runs down
and attacks Sarita and Rosita.
And you're waiting for Angelina's love
and you're waiting for Angelina's love
and you're waiting for Angelina's love.
And then she kind of sawn to her out there
in a quote-on-quote days
because now, apparently,
because this makes sense.
Angelina's love is under Winter's spell.
Oh no.
Yeah, that's what we're going with this.
And I'm just going...
Are you kidding me?
Like, even Vince Russo has to look at this and go,
this is a bad idea.
I don't know, man.
And I think not only are we misusing the beautiful people
now we're misusing Winter
who has unbelievable wrestling skills.
And we're just going to make her a sorceress now?
There's a thought.
Lord of the Rings finished...
It's theatrical rush.
Six years ago.
They didn't...
Hey, Kaelin Barchill.
That even that...
Even that character, for some reason,
that girl Vince can't use her
and it seems like Dixie cannot use her.
But it kills me because how many...
It's very strange.
How many female wrestlers in the last six months
have you seen an interview that have said,
she's the reason I have the skills that I do.
She taught me everything I know.
And it's not like she's got charisma.
Just let her go.
I mean, if we can let Lisa Marie Varan meet Tara
and ride a motorcycle,
and just be a bad A,
we can't let her be herself?
I don't get it.
And you're going to hear me say that about a hundred times
in this segment.
I watch this for you people.
Because I love you people that much.
I want you to be informed.
Just saying.
Shannon Moore.
Apparently,
Inking's getting ready to break up.
Good.
He was after we signed.
I don't know who he has pictures of.
Or what?
He is one of the least talented wrestlers
I've ever seen in years.
Shannon Moore brings no mic skills,
no charisma,
and absolutely no ring talent
to any promotion he's in,
and he's still working.
I'm going to say it right now,
and listen to me now,
and believe me next week.
You think of Mordel's bad now?
Anderson's joining.
No.
I'm not there yet.
He's joining.
They will put Shannon Moore in Mordel.
Mark my words right now.
Because of his connection with the hearties.
Absolutely.
And Hogan.
Because Hogan picked him for that Australian tour.
Exactly.
And when you happen,
you're going to look at that,
and you're going to go,
nothing is the smartest man alive.
Nothing draws heat or makes money like the name.
Shannon Moore.
And as I'm watching impacts,
I'm glad you brought this point up.
It's almost like we are telegraphing now.
That Anderson's going to join Mordel.
You know, Rob Van Dam gets a pet talk from Hogan.
We got your back, brother.
He walks out.
Hold on.
What an idiot.
And Anderson keeps saying,
I want my rematch.
You guys are screwing me blah, blah, blah.
Anderson is joining Mordel.
It could happen as quickly as April 17th at lockdown.
Because you've got to have somebody to take Jeff Hardy's place.
I don't know that we ever see Jeff Hardy on impact programming again.
We'll see.
This thing has gotten that bad.
And I think Anderson's the guy they're going to replace him with
and they're going to put that belt right back on him.
Because this thing doesn't drop it to Hogan.
They'll make him drop it to Anderson.
Also in the audience,
for the second week in a row,
was one Brooke Hogan.
Oh, okay.
And when Anderson gets thrown out of the ring,
all of a sudden,
he's thrown out oddly enough right in front of her.
And she's checking to make sure he's okay.
But we're not, we didn't show her,
but if you watched it, you saw it.
Here's my question to you.
And I'm about to shake you to your very core.
So I hope you brought some extra clothes.
Yes.
Brooke Hogan becomes Stephanie McMahon.
Could be.
She's got to do something.
She can't sing.
But everybody can sing.
Not everybody can sing well.
You know what I'm saying.
Beautiful girl.
Yeah.
Pretty girl.
Just, yeah.
No, I don't.
But she's going to become the billionaire princess.
Market again.
I am full of predictions tonight.
I am on a nocturic,
dumbest role right now.
For some reason,
just not a lot of,
yeah, just not a whole lot there.
And I think they feel that if they're going to go
the McMahon reach,
that that's going to save this thing.
No.
It's called originality kids.
Give me something to work with.
For the love of the Almighty.
And then at the end of the show,
now we're pitching Rob Bandam with a concussion.
Is that what we're going with this?
They've been doing that for a while.
That now he doesn't,
he didn't remember the match
because he was mic-checked into the post.
I don't know.
Good luck, too.
Oh.
Oran.
Julie says Brooke couldn't carry a tune in a bucket.
And Barbar says Oran iPod.
But you can't carry a tune in an iPod.
Then you have a problem.
That's just, that's user error.
Yes.
At that point.
But that's going to do it for impact talk.
I got a little, got a little heated.
Yeah.
You know, I need to cool down a little bit.
But what better way?
Not everybody can be the freebirds.
I mean,
me mortal.
Not going in the Hall of Fame this year.
Um, I'm sorry.
What, did I say something?
Was this?
Sad.
You are listening to the clubhouse
with Rob and Cody live each and every Tuesday night,
eight on the East Coast,
five on the West Coast.
I think we've got everything under control now.
We've got everything under control when you're in.
We're good.
We're good.
Okay.
Second week in a row,
we've been having some technical difficulties.
But we're getting, we know how to fix them.
That's the important thing.
Let us change gears a little bit on you.
Get into a little bit of movie talk.
This, this music gets you in the right frame of mind.
Well, Cody's favorite song right here.
We did lose a legend last week.
We just want to go through that real quickly.
Everybody knows we lost Elizabeth Taylor last week.
One funny little bit though.
Did you see the thing about her funeral?
Uh-uh.
She had it in her will.
That she was hurt,
that her casket was to be late to her own funeral.
Oh.
Funny.
Funny.
Yeah.
Legendary.
You didn't know who she was.
You're probably six months old.
Yeah.
That's all I'm saying.
Absolutely.
We haven't, we haven't released date move on a film.
Originally to be released,
thanksgiving rise of the apes
is now scheduled for an August 5th release.
Let me repeat that for those of you that were in the middle
of drinking something and spit that,
whatever you were drinking all over your screen,
rise of the apes.
You heard me correctly.
This is a planet of the apes prequel.
Because we're running out of ideas.
Oh man.
If you are the producers of this film,
this worries you greatly.
Yeah.
Because you've gone from a thanksgiving release
for those of you that don't understand a lot
about the movie industry.
A holiday release, especially a thanksgiving release,
that is the studio basically hitching their wagon to you.
When they move you to an August release,
much less an early August release,
that is the dumping ground of the summer movie season.
If you're released in August,
it's the studio going,
we're putting this out there because we have to.
It's like getting a January release.
We know you're not going to get anything for us,
but somebody will see this thing.
Good luck to him.
Once again, is it necessary?
But you've got James Franco in this thing.
The great Brian Cox.
And the great Andy Circus,
who was Donald and-
Remember Dolphin, great.
Brian Cox.
Oh.
Not the one that gave the bird to the Buffalo fans
as you walk to the locker room.
Okay.
Uh, Barbara says he heard today,
Michael Douglas and Matt Damon are doing a movie
about Leveracci.
That is absolutely true.
About a month ago,
it was announced Michael Douglas will be playing Leveracci.
Wrap your brain around that.
You have to.
Well, just for the sake of argument.
Also, the Lindsay Lohan has decided she will reject any
plea deal in this court case.
Now, some come out earlier this week
that she was going strictly by Lindsay.
Is she trying to be Madonna?
She's trying to drop her last name.
She's the Lohan.
Yes.
Okay.
That-
That damage has already been done.
But she has rejected it.
This deal she was going to court for allegedly stealing
a necklace that was caught on video in a jewelry store.
There was a plea deal on the table.
She has now decided she's not taking that plea deal
and she's going to face trial.
The judge has already told her that she's not getting
any lenience.
If this thing happens away,
it's probably going to happen.
She's going away for a while.
Oh, absolutely.
So good luck with all that.
Julie says she's going to be known by serial numbers.
And that's probably about right.
This next one I got in the wrong place,
so we're going to do this one later.
From the Superman movie, we have a lowest lane.
Have you read this story, sir?
I have, sir.
Lowest lane of the brand new Superman movie
for Superman played by the Henry Cavill from The Tudors.
Lowest lane?
Amy Adams.
Hot.
And don't say I'm overrated.
No, that might be one you got away with.
Now, the redhead Amy Adams?
Yes.
Okay.
What are you thinking of?
Well, she can't be red hair in what I'm saying.
We're probably going to dye that brown.
Okay.
Yeah.
This movie fails.
I don't care if Clark Kent played Superman.
Clark Kent is Superman.
You know what I'm saying?
He's a Mac grenade Clark Kent.
I just, I sense, I sense failure on this film.
And I don't know if I, till I see a product, a poster,
a teaser or something.
To me, there hasn't been a good Superman movie since about 1980.
And then this next one.
The hitch just keep becoming.
Apparently, this three Stooges movie is still alive.
We now have one of them.
We had all three of them at one point.
They've scrapped it.
The Fairly Brothers are still directing.
Kind of surprise Chad enjoys their work
given the first two syllables of their last name.
Curly has been cast.
It will be former Mad TV former Nitro.
Yes, Star.
Will Sassow.
I saw a side by side picture.
Pretty good.
I can't lie.
But so my original thought was when they announced
the Fairly Brothers were going to be doing this, I went.
Didn't we just do a biopic on them on ABC a few years ago?
Well, then I find out.
My friend, this is not a biopic.
This is a Three Stooges movie.
Fail.
And I'm going, why do we need to do?
Why can't we just get three guys and go?
They're the three of you.
And not go with the Three Stooges.
I'd be a little bit better than Land of the Lost.
You're going to put it that high?
Then Land of the Lost?
Chad, I'm being absolutely honest.
This is an honest to got Three Stooges story.
This is not a biopic.
This is not a behind the scenes.
Why don't we just quit making movies for five years?
That's all going to laboratory.
Other than comic properties, he got those.
But let's get neat.
Let's get in the laboratory here and start writing some films.
This is stupid.
You and I could write a movie.
That's about the Three Stooges.
That will probably...
We could write a movie.
We could do the clubhouse with Robin Cody the movie right now.
We could get somebody to finance this.
Our rise to power.
Man.
And it was us getting medals.
The droids are at this...
I'm sorry.
Now we're remaking Star Wars.
One person can't get a medal on stage.
I've got to choose Bob ahead.
We can just put that next to it.
Something like that.
Now this next one, speaking of bad films,
you said this would mean the email today.
You talk about something that came out of nowhere.
This thing.
You sent me this email.
I literally stopped what I was doing.
And I looked at it and I was like,
is he under the right impression?
Was I?
Was I?
I don't know.
I mean, you take this away.
There's something.
There was a thing that came out that Warren Beatty's won a lawsuit
to win back the rights of Dick Tracy.
And I guess the fans...
Because there's so much residuals he's getting from it.
I guess it's something to do with the movie.
And then supposedly if he didn't...
If he didn't do anything with the property,
the writer's family got it back.
And it looks like that he made a small little history.
Yes.
But horrible movie.
I think...
I don't even think I've ever made it all the way through Dick Tracy.
Really?
Honestly, because I didn't see it in theaters.
You came on the heels of a little film.
I like to all Batman.
And you weren't going to get even in the ballpark of that.
You weren't going to get in the driveway to get you to the street,
to get you to the frontage road,
to get you to the ramp, to get you to the freeway,
to get you to the other offering,
to get you to the other frontage road,
to get you to the parking lot,
to get you to the ballpark of that movie.
That wasn't going to happen.
And you made a bad film.
I don't know.
You should be a shame.
Big boy, Capone.
Big boy, something.
Big boy.
Fade.
Flat top.
88 keys.
Mumbles.
No, Mumbles wasn't fat over the Cosby kids.
No, Mumbles was a Mumbles.
I never made that far.
Prune face.
Flat face.
Big face.
The blank.
88 keys.
Sir, right now.
Yeah.
You're frightening me.
I just want you to know that.
Apparently, bar buyers seem to think we need to do a movie about some of my karaoke stories.
And Kevin James to play me?
And Kevin James to play me?
And Kevin James to play me?
And Kevin James to play me?
And Kevin James to play me?
And Kevin James to play me?
And Kevin James to play me?
But that's just me.
But I just don't understand why, why, why is this a thing?
I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know.
Suppose it was news.
I mean, it made me a joke.
Man, I don't care that Pacino got an Oscar nominated for this film.
That doesn't mean it's a great film.
What are we always thought of as in this film?
You feel it dress up?
It's still a pig.
Breathless Mahoney.
Did the whole soundtrack?
I'm Breathless.
Yes.
Breathless Mahoney.
Pinky, Pinky.
Stop it by.
Let's get into the blank.
Get into the blank.
All right, enough that's it.
Enough that's the truth.
Enough that's the truth.
Enough that's the truth.
Then there's this other thing.
I don't know if you read this.
This came down at the last minute today,
right before, literally, right before I sent out the,
the run sheet.
Apparently Disney in their infinite wisdom has decided to,
because of the clamoring of America that has begged for this,
which is probably somewhere outside of Omaha.
We are rebooting the Ms. Marple franchise. Do you know anything about this, sir?
Ms. Marple was the other detective that Agatha Christie wrote books at that time.
Okay, yes, yes, okay.
Ms. Marple, most recently, was played...
Put this in the right framework, was played by Angela Lensbury,
Bed Nobs and Roomsmiths. And not in the sex sixties, like in the 80s.
Like murder, she wrote Angela Lensbury.
But we're going to... Not only are we going to reboot it.
Okay, you want to do... You want to do... We haven't done an Agatha Christie movie in years.
Okay, I'll roll it. Hercule Poirot, bring it. Ms. Marple, great.
Starring Jennifer Garner.
Needs work. Needs work. Needs work. Needs a check.
I have a question. Needs a check.
Don't hate, sir. Needs a check.
Did I sleep through 40 years? Is she not married to the Beneflex?
Yeah. Who should be making plenty of money, right?
Needs to get her face out there, man.
And hot. And hot. Not overrated.
Not overrated. Miss Alias. It's going to be now Ms. Marple.
Congratulations.
I read a lot of these books in college because I haven't had a checker.
Maybe you're going to say that the remake, the Bed Nobs and Roomssticks.
Oh, franchise. Don't think that rumor's not out there.
Oh, bull.
Can't. Can't.
Man, the God got the little bed and he hit the little deal.
And remember, they went into water under sea and the fish.
They're great. Don not.
Man, anybody says that the guys at Disney never get drugs.
You're out of control.
Just watch anything they did.
Right. 62-75.
I want to see them remake the old shakiest gun in the West.
I want to see the ghost and Mr. Chicken.
I want to see the computer that were tennis shoes.
Firstly. Yeah.
Can we get Kurt Russell to go back and redo the kicking mule?
What was that?
There's a mule he had that kicked field goals.
Oh, I don't know about all that.
I made about a minute.
But the...
In on...
No, I did say Pacino should be ashamed.
Yeah.
He should be ashamed for that film.
The ghost and Mr. Chicken.
Come on now.
Whoah!
Moving new releases this week.
I thought this was someone we were going to calm down.
Yeah.
Apple Dumbly Gang.
In.
In.
Don not.
In.
Dwarf.
Dwarf on aging.
It's going to be a different point.
Dwarf on early bird specials.
Dwarf on death.
Oh, hey.
Oh.
Sourced code releases this week with Nick Gyllenhaal.
Didn't I say this called Time Cop?
No, that was John Clawd Van Damse.
But apparently Jake Gyllenhaal is a guy who works with a company.
He's supposed to stop a train from getting blown up.
Oh.
But he...
Whenever he screws it up.
That they send him back to the same exact point in time.
It's like Gus was the...
About the donkey.
You're right.
It's kind of like Groundhog Day meets Time Cop.
Cool.
Basically.
You look to him.
Michelle.
A lot of him.
Vera Farminga.
Joe.
It's getting right.
If you watched any WWE programming last night.
They showed that trailer at Nazim.
You know I didn't see it.
Well.
Fast forward.
I like things.
Yeah.
Peace Dragon.
Don't touch that one.
Leave Peace Dragon alone.
That's an American original.
Even though it took place I think in Canada.
But I'm just saying.
Also this week.
Out.
Got a kid.
Want to start Easter a month early?
The people...
Now they're pitching this as the creators of Despicable Me.
Don't set the bar that high.
Because Despicable Me.
I'm going to say it right here on this program.
Right now.
Great film.
Own it.
Own it.
But now we're going to go with Hop.
Where E.B.
He's the one.
He's the one.
He's the one.
He's the Easter Bunny's teenage son.
E.B.
He's heads to Hollywood determined to become a drummer and a rocket roll band.
That's like...
In Edaclaw's three.
And while he's in LA.
He's taken in by Fred after the out of work slacker hits E.B. with his car.
Fred played by James Marston.
Cyclops.
You've got...
Russell Brand is the voice of E.B.
Let that sink in.
The unfunny Russell Brand.
He's got Arthur coming out in a couple of weeks.
That looks ridiculous.
The very hot Kaylee Cuoco.
Big bang, Fairy.
Eight simple rules for dating my teenage daughter or whatever that was.
Hankas area.
Very talented.
Gary Cole.
Elizabeth Perkins.
Hugh Laurie.
David Hasselhoff plays himself.
Chelsea Handler among others.
I just...
Really?
What's this next one here?
I don't know much about it.
You just move it on.
Yeah, I mean, what do you say?
How do you say?
Insidious?
Have you not heard of this?
Weird looking.
It's not the house that's haunted.
We're doing that again.
Wait, hold on.
Every kid's haunted.
Nope, still out.
Yes.
The paranormal activity.
Why can't a kid just be happy?
And it's a kid.
He's got a block.
And he's playing.
Now he got to haunt the kid.
We saw a polter guy 30 years ago.
Quit trying to read.
Stop it.
Yeah.
Also this week, super with Rain Wilson.
Is that the real life superhero?
No, Joe Pesci was in the original of this super.
That was the super.
Wow, you were kind of deep on me on that.
Well played, sir.
Not like we were redoing the super.
Super.
And he's super of ya building.
Yeah.
The two ukes in apartment three.
Now this next one.
The two what?
What's a uke?
This next one.
What do you know about this?
I don't know.
You just saw you just saw.
No button.
We need to get this.
This is a family show.
The movie is called Rubber.
It is about a serial killing tire.
No.
No.
You heard it.
No.
Look it up.
Look it up.
This is a tire that kills.
Not only does it kill people, it kills people with telekinesis.
If you have HD net movies, I believe they're showing it tomorrow night before it hits theaters.
But people on the film, the film festival circuit are going insane about this movie.
People are going, this movie could be the greatest thing ever.
I'm not kidding you.
Is this like a tack of the killer tomatoes?
To the end.
Because at least tomatoes, you know, there were multiples.
This is one tire.
Like, you see the tires start to shake and the cops head explode.
It's fair.
And then it takes refuge in a motel room.
The tire?
I'm watching this trailer.
And I'm going, are you kidding me?
But you know what?
It's something different.
Yeah.
It's something different.
That way I'm in clamor and that's in summer slam.
Yeah.
Well, we need to get the wheels back on this, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
You are full of puns tonight, sir.
Oh, man.
Also going, going back to the dark side.
Oh, chances it blows holes in people.
What?
Why?
No more happy movies.
Huh?
What?
This thing kind of concerns me.
Trust is the name of it.
Let me ask you this, friends.
Do you have kids?
Do you like to give your kids a computer?
Do you?
I mean, I mean, what else are you going to say about how creepy this thing is?
Oh, it's a mess.
The...
Directed you?
Directed this?
Scorsese.
David Schwimmer has directed this thing.
Ross from Friends has directed this movie with Viola Davis, Noah Emmerich, Katherine Keener,
and Clive Owen.
Clive Owen is the father of a girl who meets a guy online and things get weird.
Yeah.
That's all we need to go into there.
You know what?
I saw Catfish.
I don't need to see this.
Weird.
How was Catfish?
Weird.
Weird is in gory weird?
No.
If I try to explain it to you, it gives way to the movie.
I refuse to ruin that movie.
If you haven't seen it, see it, but just make sure you just...
I don't know.
It's just a weird movie.
It's a strange, strange look into the human psyche.
Let's just put it that way.
Some more will put on my blog this week.
DVD and Blu-ray new releases this week.
Disney's latest animated feature, Tangled, which has the Mandy Moore and the Zach Levi,
who comes from Chuck.
Matt's here.
Good to see Matt says it's scripted.
No, sir.
It was not.
Real.
Catfish is not scripted.
Wow.
That was real.
Scripted.
Well, ever since the Blair Witch project, nobody knows anything.
They know it's nobody knows.
Also, this week, the nominate, the Oscar film, Black Swan, DVD.
I don't know if I can sit through this.
I really don't.
That's a little weird for me.
Darren Aronovsky, though.
I mean, I did recommend for a dream.
What else can you say?
Also, Mad Men Season 4 just came down late today.
I did this came down within a half an hour.
You showed up to my house.
You're not going to see another episode of Mad Men New until next year.
The producers and AMC are fighting over money right now.
So if you are a Mad Men fan, start watching them on DVD,
because that's the only way you're going to see them.
Or in reruns.
reruns.
Fair game.
This was the true story of the CIA operative that got outed by the reporter
with Naomi Watts.
That is out today.
And the last thing we're going to talk about is, I don't even know how to say this.
This is a Trimae.
Season 1.
It was an HBO series that takes place in New Orleans.
A lot of people from the wire in this.
I've heard good things.
I've not seen an episode.
We've got more stuff that we're going to put on my blog later this week.
A lot of releases this week.
That's going to do it for movie talk.
Ready to do the little stick puck?
Little stick puck.
Little stick puck.
Let's do it.
We are getting down to the very, the nitty-gritty in that sport.
How many games do we have left?
We're going to have like five, five, six games.
The big news coming out today is Washington Capitals.
Captain.
Alex Ovechkin is back on the ice for the caps Tuesday, tonight.
Tonight, he will be playing against the great hockey hotbed known as the Carolina Hurricanes.
And with three games.
Hey, man, they don't start here.
He missed three games.
Supposedly to hill up.
I think this guy has to do something in the Stanley Cup playoffs to solidify himself as a star.
Because he keeps getting beat by Cindy Crosby.
Yeah.
Even in the winter classic, he can't beat him.
This has just been a weird.
He's a great player.
I've actually met some people and threw different walks in the DC area.
He's taken that city by absolute storm.
He is a bona fide superstar.
He just got a champion.
If I'm not mistaken, you have spoken to someone who on your honeymoon is a matter of fact.
Who met him and said he was not the portrait of nice.
Yes, he is.
He's a ladies man.
He loves the American women.
Is what I was told by certain.
I can't do that.
The Borat thing.
Certain Fox News anchor.
You can say it's a front run in big multimedia circles, man.
That's right.
Hey.
This clubhouse is robbing Cody.
Everybody wants a piece of this show.
But anyway.
Yeah.
Hockey's winding down.
There's some teams.
Precious, precious points are slipping away to get in to the Stanley Cup finals.
We will start in the Eastern Conference.
As the Philadelphia flyer still holding on to the number one spot with 100 points.
Congratulations, Becky.
Washington Trelling them by two.
Here's your four.
Here's the divisions that's been clenched in the East.
Billy, Washington, Boston, and Pittsburgh have all clenched.
They're all in.
Followed by Tampa.
Montreal, the Rangers, and the Buffalo Sabers have snuck their way in.
They're now one point ahead of the Carolina Hurricane.
So my lightening's in.
My Panthers are not.
Yes, the Panthers are the worst team in the East.
Yes.
They are tied.
They're number one.
They're actually tied with Ottawa.
Maybe Otter was senators.
Yes.
I still think somebody should have gotten a rivalry with them and called themselves the representatives.
Over in the West, Vancouver is the only team that's clenched.
Followed by the Western Conference, it's getting a little wacky.
Yeah, Detroit, San Jose, Phoenix, the Los Angeles Kings, Nashville, Anaheim, and Chicago.
Now it's falling to the eighth.
Dallas has changed it in Chicago.
Yeah.
How do you see that coming, everyone?
The Dallas stars have fallen down to 10th.
And...
Yeah, this thing, man, stars fans.
I want to go to the arena right now and walk up to their coach and give them a paper bag and go,
can you win your way out of this, please?
Yes, they have.
They are just horrible.
They went on a skid that I couldn't explain it.
This was at one time the hottest team in the NHL and they can't seem to get out of their way.
They've lost.
They're now on a three game skid as we speak.
Now is day two about to lose somebody for a few games?
Yes.
They've been in trouble.
They have...
Steve Bertuzzi last night throwing an elbow.
No, penalty.
They're not going to penalize any games.
That's what I'm asking.
Yeah.
They're not going to penalize any games, but then there's rumors he may take some time off to heal up as well.
So I don't know.
Yeah, if this is connected.
But the NHL, we're getting ready, and I know, hey, if you don't have versus,
you're not going to watch the playoffs.
Are they carrying all the playoffs?
And NBC is going to have a few games.
We can.
The bulk of this...
These playoffs will be on versus.
Is it sad that I don't remember...
Like when the stars won the cup at 99?
ESPN.
What was that ESPN?
Because I couldn't remember who carried the semifinals.
ESPN did hockey on Friday in Tuesday.
Wednesday night's always baseball.
So who carried the games that they didn't though?
ABC.
ABC had the NHL contract in, yep.
That's why this sport fails in this country because they don't even have a multi-media outlet
to get their games on television, even the playoffs.
I like hockey.
Love it.
Me like hockey.
Sorry, that's a local reference.
I apologize.
Needle, needle.
Needle, needle.
Needle, needle, needle.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Anywhere stickpucky got?
That's it.
You are the scene of the clubhouse with Robin Cody right here on Ustream.
We are live every Tuesday night.
Make sure you join us.
If you miss any part of the show, you can always listen on the archive.
We keep it there for you.
You can also get it in your portable device.
We have 11 episodes available right now.
11.
Number 12 will go up tonight.
Brainy likes hockey in person.
Yes.
You know, hey, man, I'll go with you, man.
If you want to go to hockey game, I'll roll with you.
I got you.
You paying?
Brandon, I got you.
You paying?
No, I'm just saying.
I'll go with it, dude.
You know, go dutch.
I haven't heard that turn.
I haven't been to the dating scene in almost a decade and a half.
I haven't heard that turn used in 20 years, I don't think.
Let's do a little shutdown news.
Absolutely.
Real quick.
Don't forget.
Sunday Night Live, Fox and Hound.
Sunday.
Sunday Sunday.
WrestleMania.
From hot Atlanta, the Georgia Dome.
We'll be live at Fox and Hound.
Having to what you would call a WrestleMania party.
A lot of fun.
Live free show.
We're going to prepare you.
Yeah.
Live free show.
We will break down the card and dig into the streak and see what this streak is really all about.
Who's been in it?
What's been involved in it?
Hi, Dad.
So, absolutely.
Totally live.
Fox and Hound.
Sunday night.
Richston.
75 Campbell.
Come out.
$3 at cover charge.
Bring everybody you know.
We want to meet you guys if we haven't done so.
And even if we had, we want to hang out with you.
Absolutely.
You get, you know, Cody says if you see him, you're going to have that opportunity in five days.
Yes.
Five days from right now.
This is my half way.
Last time there was a bucket of beer specials, draft specials, single liquor specials.
If I remember.
Oh, yeah.
Get you out.
They sell cigars.
Black forest hammer.
Yeah.
Pretzel role.
Yeah.
They got sell cigars.
Out on that.
In on cigar.
Oh, you know, there was something I meant to say during movie talk.
We'll cover that next week.
We want to smack down news.
It wasn't announced today.
I don't know if you saw a late breaking WWE news at about 430.
Snoopy dog dog.
Oh, no.
We'll be in WrestleMania 27.
The Snoopy dog who releases a new album today that we'll talk about later.
It's going to be there.
Now, this is his second time doing this bit.
Because he did the deal where he hosted a diva's match of some form.
It was like a diva's battle royal.
Hey, he's the snazzled isle.
And they'll probably get a little bit of that.
What do you think about that?
Have you heard anything about this next story, sir?
No.
A very big topic last night for those of us that watch Raw together on Monday nights.
Apparently, life is now imitating art.
For Mr. Cole, Michael Cole, I don't know if you saw a Twitter problem he had over the weekend.
He referred to Josh Matthews with a homophobic slur on Twitter.
Glad got involved.
WWE got involved.
He removed the Twitter post, had to put up an apology, which was very half-hearted.
It was, I didn't mean to offend anybody.
Can I get back to being my character now?
Whoa.
He's having to go through mandatory sensitivity training sponsored by Glad.
Also now, people backstage are saying he's acting the same way that he acts on camera.
Off camera.
Where bookers are giving him scripts and he's throwing it at them saying I'll do whatever the H.I.
Well, Michael, TNA, any new ringside guy?
Yeah.
Because I'm going to say something, Cole.
Vince has given you the rope and you're going to hate yourself with it.
I've been trying it for weeks.
I've been trying to help you out.
Well, as we were on air.
Yeah.
That was, that was happening.
As we were, you sent me a text.
Let me ask you something.
Do you not remember I watched the show on Friday?
I don't need dispoilers on Tuesday.
Yeah, I got a text.
As we were talking about, what are we going to do with the OST strap?
Well, Kofi, it was just back and forth.
Well, as we were on air Tuesday night, there is.
If you watched it all last night, you saw this.
Wade Barrett is your new intercontinental champion.
So what we were hoping for the Nexus is now happening with the core because we're loading them with gold.
But my question is, how long can they hold this stuff?
They're going to hold it at least a week.
Yes, we've run out of, we've run out of belts.
Unless you bring a TV towel and Ezekiel Jackson is going to be shorted instead.
That was going to be my next question to you.
Unless you bring in another title.
And what's scary is you and I haven't talked about this.
That was my exact thought.
You bring in a TV title.
You put it on Ezekiel Jackson.
Now three quarters of the core can go wherever they want, whenever they want.
Like it.
Is the core now starting to turn into the mistakes we learned from the Nexus?
Could be one thing I don't know.
I'm not spoiling a thing for anybody that watched it all.
Why are you going to not put them in matches to defend their titles at WrestleMania?
That was going to be a point I'm going to bring up later.
I don't understand that.
I just confused by this.
Why Wade Barrett, new intercontinental champion.
Now I know you don't get a lot of...
Belt looks great on.
Oh yeah.
Now I don't know you'll get a chance to watch Smackdown a lot but did you watch this match?
Yes.
What'd you think of the finish?
Was that not awesome?
I liked it.
And we won it.
That's what I liked it.
He won it clean.
Kofi goes for the trouble and paradise after he eliminates the distraction.
He misses trouble and paradise.
Wasteland.
Wade Barrett catches him in midair, puts him up over the shoulder.
Wasteland.
Great finish.
Yes.
And it was good.
I'm glad I just see Barrett win it clean.
Get Kofi away from the IC strap.
How long has he had that beltness?
Awfulies.
This is the second run.
I was shot.
That belt off Jericho in Dallas at night of champions.
The first time.
The first time.
Big Swarth.
Big Swarth.
Who was the second run?
How long has he had this?
This is the second run.
Didn't he hear it?
Was it Survivor Series?
Yes.
He held the US title.
Had a swim with first time on winning Smackdown.
Get Kofi away from these little rinky, dinky titles.
What are you going to do with it?
Let him wrestle.
I mean, let's be honest.
He's in a crawl.
I just don't know if winning.
He informed my tag team with somebody.
Him and Shelton.
I've always said, bring back the nation.
Shelton, Ezekiel, Kofi.
Don't think they'll touch that.
Uh-uh.
I just...
Can you remember it?
It was going to be...
Crime time was going to be heading that one.
They were originally going to bring the nation back.
Yes.
Kofi.
And I guess Shelton was still around that point.
Shelton was going to lead it.
Was the rumor there.
But got great finish.
Loved it.
But you're right.
Kofi isn't a crossroads here.
Moving around.
Where do we go?
Yes.
I just don't know.
Wade Barrett confused.
They're doing also the mistakes we made with Wade Barrett as well in Nexus.
So, great.
That's going to do for Smackdown Talkers.
That's really what happened.
That was like your main event.
Not a lot of wrestling on that show.
Not really.
But you were setting up a lot of stuff that was going to happen last night.
Yes.
Let's do a little music news.
This guy you hear right now.
The guy you hear right now.
Jarul.
Who lost relevance about five years ago.
Moody.
Maybe.
Well, don't do that whole story.
Some of that got literal with that company.
Jarul, please guilty to tax evasion and a weapons charge.
Tax evasion happened from 2004 to 2008.
$1.1 million.
He'll be sentenced on June 13th.
But the bad news is that same month he'll start a three-year sentence for a weapons possession
back from 2007.
Huh.
So, he's got a nice long stretch coming.
As he's going to go in for the weapons charge, then he's going to have to serve a sentence
unless they do it concurrent.
Yes.
He's going to have to serve it for the tax evasion, too.
Jarul.
He'll be staying in the Wesley Snifes suite.
Yes.
A lot of people know that.
Also, formerly known as a Willie Nelson, I didn't live in suite.
I said Willie had some tax problems.
What's cool about Willie is the people around him.
The farmers bought all of his stuff and gave it back to him.
Only Willie.
Well, because Willie's got to make gas out of corn.
Yes.
Hey, Carl's corn?
Willie's got a place.
You know, you know, when he had the most serious dog on that thing at one time.
It's not there anymore.
No.
I just don't know.
I don't think my car can use that gas.
Mine came.
Can you put that into that?
I can use the ethanol.
2006 Ford Mustang.
The Flex fuel.
Flex.
The X.
Ethanol.
Fix.
Ethanol.
You wanted to put this next item in here.
This thing is everywhere.
I heard it as a local promo.
Friday comes after Thursday, which comes before Saturday and Sunday.
This Rebecca Black train wreck.
Yes.
I don't know what to think of it.
Because they're planning a lot because.
It's coming on.
It's Friday.
It's Friday.
Are they using this for?
Yeah.
I'm just like.
And I heard that I bet 20 times a dish chick is everywhere.
She has a big bucket of wind right now.
And can't.
I don't know.
You know, there was a bunch of posts as she on YouTube.
People viewing the video.
Put a lot of negative posts on there.
And Lady Gaga jumped to her defense.
Yes, she did.
And an interview with billboard.com.
Yes.
Actually, Chad, the best collages in Texas would be in West.
That is in West Texas, sir.
And that's actually, which is weird.
Because West Texas really isn't in West Texas.
It's just a South Texas.
Called West.
Which is a South Texas expert in that chat room.
Oh, that's right.
Matt.
Yes.
So I'm a fan of this stuff in West.
Although I did.
I did eat at Kalachi Haven.
Last week.
Which I don't understand why it was a haven.
Because they weren't being protected.
You just walk in there and buy one.
The Kalachi.
My dad.
Make some killer Kalachi.
Yeah.
I'm a fan of the Kalachi.
That's some of those Sunday morning in the in the sea town.
So.
That would be Kent.
Correct.
Correct.
I just want to make sure.
Maybe you weren't Seattle.
Okay.
I just want to see what she's doing with the profits from this single.
Going to college.
Give it to Japan.
Oh, good deal.
The profits from her single.
She is donating to the relief.
We're in Japan right now.
Maybe she'll go do a lot of.
As we talked about last week at 40,000 downloads.
$27,000 net.
Huh.
I wouldn't say they have decent Kalachi's at Kalachi.
Those were great Kalachi.
Our next point.
We need a sponsor from Kalachi haven.
Yes.
Or Jimmy's doughnuts in Roy City.
Or there's a brand new pizza place over in Mesquite.
The chat says it's very good.
What's it called?
It's called Chicago's best or something.
You can change things in Chicago's best pizza.
You can change pizza.
But he says it's very, very good.
Yes.
We wouldn't mind having catered every week.
That was from them.
Oh, real?
Daddy giving you props there.
Okay.
Maybe maybe not you.
Yeah.
Somebody with your life.
This next point is it necessary.
Fire up some goodie here by them.
You're actually...
I think you're missing a pointer.
Oh, no.
Because we're going to talk about this next artist.
Get ready this summer, kids.
Uh-oh.
Fist pump.
Pitball.
Wow.
There's air in this room.
What?
This summer, the big two are Brittany Spears
Enrique Iglesias.
I'm in line now.
Cody is live from the American Airlines Center.
Using all this electronic equipment in the rain.
Oh.
This is going to happen.
They announced it on good Monday.
Oh, I mean, good Monday.
Good for the both of them.
He's kind of having a little bit of a renaissance
in his career right now.
Yes.
And she needs one.
So they'll probably feed off each other very well.
But I'm going to tell you this.
You make a lot of money.
The critics are going insane about this new album.
Good about it.
Good.
A lot of critics are getting very good ratings.
But again, she don't sing a lot.
Yeah.
Good for Brittany.
Absolutely.
Now this next one.
I just...
I read this.
Hit the A.
You need to listen.
Hit this.
I mean, let me...
You're in your...
Let me get you...
I'm in your computer.
You got speakers.
Get ready.
Play some of that.
That greasy.
There we go.
Oh, this is what it was on.
What an idea.
Eliminator.
Eliminator?
Afterburner.
Yeah.
Afterburner.
This was the eliminator.
Yeah.
Afterburner was rough boy.
That was the first cassette I ever owned.
Yeah.
Julie's right of the Britney thing.
Apparently she did a couple of surprise shows in Vegas this weekend.
And they said she danced stiff as a boarder.
Very uninspired.
But when I saw this, I heard this on.
I was one of the road listing to a radio.
That's on a radio.
It's a satellite.
Two letter network.
And they announced that with...
You see the ZZ top working on a new album out by the end of the year.
They are doing it both in Houston, Texas and Los Angeles, California.
I'm just to the point with some of these older acts.
Sing the hits.
And I hate that.
I mean that in all due respect.
Well, you talk about this next group.
They're touring with this summer.
There's only one living person for the original group.
Yep.
This summer the tour will be the ZZ top and skinnered.
Yeah.
I ever tell you my favorite story when I saw skinner with three doors down.
And he said, the guy goes,
we're going to do some mentally of old scared classics.
And I looked at our buddy Seth and I went,
aren't they all old scared classics at this point?
Yeah, just...
I don't know, man.
That's up.
Skinnered.
Why just called a band?
It's called a band 38 special.
Why do you have to keep digging up old Leonard Skinner?
There's one living member of that band.
Artemis Pyle.
You made me cop so hard right then.
I've seen stars right now.
Quick call on the band Leonard Skinner.
It is 30.
It is 30.
It's a little hard.
It needs a second chance, brother.
Wild-eyed Southern boys.
Great crossroads.
And you can still do your Alabama.
You can still do...
Our Sweet Home Alabama.
You can still do your...
Give me back my bullets and your Skinnered stuff.
Give me the Leonard Skinner name off of your band.
What do you think about the Skinner, though?
They never really minst words.
Give me back my bullets.
Working for MCA.
Yes.
Give me three steps.
Swamp music.
Tuesdays go on.
You can still do that.
You might hear that on you for it.
Yes, you can still do that.
But don't take the Leonard Skinner name.
What do you think about the next subpoint here, though?
This was mentioned in the same article I read on Billboard.
All three of those singers and groups can...
They can hold it.
They can do it.
But we already have a really good ZZ Top tribute album called
Sharp Dressed Men where a lot of...
You know, it was...
A lot of great country artists.
Yes.
Covering ZZ Top.
But apparently we have another tribute album coming out that's in the works right now.
Three artists already committed.
Would be Foo Fighters.
Kid Rock.
And...
One of my personal favorites.
Nickelback.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
All three of those.
Everybody you named.
And Kid Rock's already done a cover.
Yes.
You see Kebler's theme song.
You'd like a version of Lex.
Yeah.
And...
But the thing that I just do these guys are great.
Do they have any relevance?
That's the thing.
It's like we talked about with Sammy Hagar last week.
If you're an old dude like me.
Yeah.
But...
Do the kids with the clothes and the hair?
No.
Not so much.
Now this next story is kind of...
Unless you see Frank Beard or Billy Gibbons in their own rock.
Saw this one.
I want to get your opinion on this.
This Sunday.
I'm sure you've got your DVR set because you will be a little occupied on Sunday evening.
Do a lot of drinking on Sunday nights.
This Sunday night.
The Academy of Country Music Awards.
Welcome's a live performance.
From Rihanna.
Doing the Lumbarella.
No she'll be singing California King Bed with the Jennifer Nettles.
And she's like nails on a chalkboard.
I'll tell you what.
My wife was a big fan of the Sugar Land.
She saw them all right.
They were on Idol a couple of weeks ago.
And my...
That song is terrible first of all.
You know.
It's duck like glue.
And my wife was like...
If she didn't have...
If she...
That's correct in front of everybody.
I'm kidding.
If she didn't have to be so with the sound effects and all that.
I just...
Just seeing.
I think she's got a great set of pipes.
But I...
The sound effects.
When my wife looked at me and said,
You know, you can fast forward this.
I'm okay with that.
I was like, this is one of your leaders.
And she's like now.
Not really a big fan anymore.
I think the Lady A kind of stole a lot of their thunder.
Good.
Personally.
I think that kind of wrecked them.
New releases this week.
We talked about it just a minute ago.
Britney Spears Femme Fates Howl releases today.
Like I said, a lot of great critical buzz.
I'll take a spin on it if somebody buys it and wants to bird me a copy.
Another one of Cody's favorites releases a Brady album today.
After heaven.
They just couldn't get the wheels back on.
Los Lonely Boys.
But that was all they had.
That's all they had.
They had some stuff that didn't make mainstream radio.
But that was their only big hit, though.
Yeah.
Los Lonely Boys releases Rock Pango.
Yep.
Super big band down in South Texas.
Yes.
Also.
A group called Peter Bjorn and John.
Who I swear I've seen open for somebody.
But I couldn't tell you who it is right now.
Oh.
Called Give Me Some.
They're kind of one of those bands with the kids with the clothes and the hair.
Brandon, that will be covered on my blog this week.
And then we talked about this guy earlier.
Yes.
The Snoopy Dog Dog releases dogumentary.
Dogumentary.
Yeah.
Anything he does.
I don't know, man.
Anytime he makes a doggy style great.
Greatness.
Dog food.
Great.
That's a hint.
Dogfather.
Dogfather great.
Are we, are we, we're getting, are we getting the end of him?
I think he's just starting to age or he's just kind of like, man.
I'm a book.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Beyond.
Also, the guys who listen to you right now, brand new white snake album today.
It's called Forevermore.
Let me tell you something.
David Coverdale.
Still hits it.
Still hits those notes.
Hey, Chad, are you saying white snake open for depeche mode when you saw him?
One of these kids is doing his own thing.
Went from that to personal Jesus.
Little, uh, still the night.
Great song.
We've got a couple more.
We'll cover on my blog this week.
So be prepared for that.
Again, you are listening to the clubhouse with Robin Cody.
This is season one, episode 38, if you can believe it.
38 or a, almost a 40.
Almost to the point where maybe we need to take a break going to rehab.
I don't know.
No, no, no.
Okay.
Join us each and every Tuesday night.
We appreciate you being here.
Remember, it's like Cody talks about every week.
This is a grassroots thing.
Yes.
Please listen.
Tell everybody you know.
Well, if you want to be, you know, I'm going to say it right now.
Just off the top of my head.
Everybody listening to this show right now.
You are our street team.
We want you to help us get the word out.
If you want, we've got some basic flyers we can send out.
If you want to distribute them wherever you are, you let me know.
You can send me an email at rob at the clubhouse with robincoady.com.
I'll get you those.
Oh, Chad said Peter Bjorn and John open for the pass.
That's what it is.
Cool.
Also, you can follow us on Twitter.
I am.
Go ahead.
I am Cody.
PS, huh?
I am.
Yes, that rob urban ERVIN.
Make sure you also follow the show.
Clubhouse WRNC is the Twitter feed.
We'll be updating that quite often to keep you updated on what's going on with the show.
You about ready to go on campus?
Ready.
We have to go meet some lovely ladies.
Oh, no, not that kind of on campus.
I'm sorry.
Boss is kind of strange.
Ralph Nader.
Oh, he's a professional gripper.
You know, he's actually hosted Saturday Night Live.
Yeah.
Ralph Nader wants to band all athletic scholarships because being said they're being distributed
for kids who never had any intentions of going to college in the first place.
And this is new because he got mad.
That's just.
I just this guy.
I'm just trying to figure out where the shock value is.
Yeah, he's just a professional.
That's what he does.
He gripes about and for president and much president in the green party every year.
But Ralph Nader, that's his plan to save the college experiences to ban all athletic scholarships.
So he thinks we just need to televised Ivy League games.
That's it.
He's not even thinking about that kind of stuff.
He's not even realizing the economic pressure that that is with these schools,
with how much these schools make off these television contracts.
The guy that is mine.
That's never going to happen.
Not to mention the just football alone, the pressure that puts on the NFL.
Yes.
Are these kids just going to just hang out for three years and play City League football?
City League.
Arena.
Arena.
NCAA basketball.
If you have one team in the final four, I want to meet you.
It's like I said, the only people, this is an interesting staff that ESPN,
the Florida Network, put up out of six million people that did brackets.
Two of them had VCU in the final four.
So this is your final four.
You, Con Butler and Virginia Commonwealth University.
Can I redo my bracket?
No.
It's over.
But hey, that's not the only.
I know this is you.
I did see Misty gave you a little bit of credit on her Facebook page.
I don't know if you saw this.
Yes.
After San Diego State lost.
She said, damn, you code is he code in your accuracy.
She said, I didn't say you were right.
I just said you were accurate.
Now, we have a final.
As the women's final four is getting ready to crank up as well.
It is indeed.
But tonight we have had Connecticut, the Connecticut women.
Not shocked.
Have defeated number two Duke 75 to 40.
Wow.
So Duke's women kind of went.
Yes.
Hey, last longer than a man.
The big one tonight as Texas A&M in Baylor.
Let me ask you.
You see this next point I put on the run sheet here.
Yes.
Talk about Baylor.
Beast.
Brittany Griner.
What amazes me about this young lady?
Remember last year she was all anybody could talk about.
Doing it quietly this year.
All the hype's gone.
And she is still carrying that team on her back.
What did she have like 12 blocks in the first round?
Yeah.
But when I got a little funny thing on the Baylor.
Getting a little inspiration from a rapper known as Lil Wayne.
They have now using the Baylor loves Lil Wayne's tune.
Green and yellow.
So he's done a green and yellow.
This song.
This is all off.
Guilty.
Guilty.
This song comes off the heels of the Packers in the Super Bowl.
He made this song to kind of read this thing.
But now Baylor using the Lil Wayne.
Green and yellow.
But I heard somebody talk out the side of their neck the other day.
And said that Brittany Griner could probably be a top 10 pick.
And the men's NBA draft.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Nancy Lieberman Klein.
Slow down.
Tap the break.
Yeah.
Come on, Nancy.
Go to bed.
Is that who said go to Richston High School and do a basketball clinic center?
Is that who said that?
Yeah.
That was one of her comments made this week.
Wow.
Nancy Lieberman Klein.
Let's slow your roll speed racer.
In other college news.
This is kind of breaking.
As the Fiesta Bowl fires at CEO John.
No.
I thought it was just her president.
President and CEO.
Oh.
He's got us.
Yes.
This has been something kind of going on for a while.
A little bit of light shed on it.
Then it kind of went away.
Now it's back.
What happened is the.
There was a 40 46,500.
$539 of donations.
Violated state law.
Got that on me.
I'll tell you there were some.
Men's establishments.
A little brown chicken brown cow.
Yes.
Mixed into that.
Rumor now is these Fiesta bowls B.C.S.
Spot.
Maybe in jeopardy.
Jerry.
Jerry.
Jerry.
Jerry.
If Jerry, if you want in the rotation.
The door is now.
Yes.
B.C.S.
This is now breaking.
Yeah.
They are saying the B.C.S.
This last part I have heard.
This is the B.C.S.
Chair.
And it is.
Surround it.
It's voters will vote.
On the future of the Fiesta bowl, as a B.C.S. entity.
Wow.
So...
That.
So if Jerry, you know you want to get in the rotation.
Of hosting one day a national.
Title game.
This is it.
This is your deal.
Number one.
Javon?
Javon, I've seen it mentioned a lot of ways, I don't know about you, but I've never been
mistaken for a burglar.
Have you?
Have you?
I've been mistaken for the hamburger sometime.
Yes.
But that's what happened to him a couple of evenings ago.
He was in the wrong place, the wrong time, and was handcuffed and detained for a short
time.
And he is from where?
He is from South Carolina, and was a number one recruit in the nation, defense event
that committed to South Carolina.
Oh, that's right.
He hasn't even played it down.
No, he hasn't even played down.
That's right.
That's how I do it.
And of course, if you know Jim Tressel, we know he's been a little bit of trouble, one
in 15 against the SEC and both, with one of those things that's gone on with him and
with the prior and the tats.
Now an HBO real sports to be doing a special, that Ada Ohio State recruit was offered drugs,
alcohol, and sex, to sign a letter of intent, and steady took 200 grain and went to Auburn.
Let me...
I need to say something about this, because not about the situation, but just a matter of
relates to it.
If you have ever talked to me about sports and sports documentaries, I will shout from
the mountaintops, the brilliance of HBO sports.
I always have, I always will.
You know how they say there's an exception to every rule?
Bryant Gumble, you were it.
I, real sports wears me out, can't do it, cannot watch.
That's the rumor.
Don't know when this is going to air.
To me, the sweater vest, Jim Tressel, this thing's gotten serious with him.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You think that there might be more to come here?
I don't know.
There's so much smoke.
There's just so much smoke there right now with what I'm saying is you think there's
even more right now that we don't know.
I don't know.
The thing that irritates me with the Tressel situation is he emailed.
He emailed one of Pryor's handlers back in Pennsylvania.
Okay.
To me, at that point, you're communicating with an agent.
Yep.
At that point, in my mind, you're communicating with an agent, which violates NCAA rule.
Or excuse me, it was a mentor of quarterback, Torrell Pryor.
Is that just a fancy way to say agent, Ted Szenerik, a businessman from Pryor's hometown
of Jeannette, Pennsylvania.
And what entitles him to have the knowledge to be a mentor?
Because he probably walked him through the money and how to, oh, pimped him out to Ohio
State.
I hate to say that and use that.
So, are you saying this is a Cam Newton situation?
I'm not going to go.
Yeah, I think it could be.
Obviously, there's so much fun with just the tattoo alone.
Probably you have seen one of, another one of them sports falls from grace.
We did that list a long time ago.
I've got to put Jim Tressel on that list because he was that squeaky, clean, hard-nosed coach.
And he's turned out to be in the middle of a liar in a cheater the past couple of weeks.
We've seen so much come out about him.
Yep.
So that is on campus.
Also, you have your final, your, uh, Frozen Four.
Yes.
Frozen Four is official.
Deluth Minnesotid Deluth is one Notre Dame Yale was your top seed.
And they're not even in.
Yes.
They're already out.
Yep.
And of course, uh, I forgot the other two.
I just saw it today on the four letter college, Colorado, Colorado college, Colorado
college.
That is where our friend Sean Lee.
In Michigan.
Me.
So, that is on campus.
Another great second.
Yeah, great.
If you're out listening and you're on a baseball fan, we're going to do a ton of baseball
stuff towards the end here.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Evening day, Thursday.
But there's something else we need to do first.
Yes.
We do want to remind you something that we got about not 55 seconds.
June 4th, mark it on your calendar.
Come hang out with me.
We're going to be raising some money for a friend of a dear friend as the boys from Trinity
Rain going to get together and do a quick gig for you.
It's during the day.
It's noon to two.
Raising money for a friend that's got a very rare form of nasal cancer that affects
seven out of every million Americans.
Wow.
We had our first rehearsal Friday night for other things going on.
I'm very excited about where this is going.
Make sure you join us.
June 4th, Crossroads, Church and Rallette will have more details coming very, very soon
on that.
Let's talk about last night.
Shall we?
Yes.
We're going to let Clemson's fight song run us out here in about five seconds.
Roll that tiger.
Hold that tiger.
I don't have the clean version of the Nickelback theme.
That's the problem.
I probably should download that.
Let's move to Rall last night.
Chad threw out an interesting stat last night as we were watching Rallette's fight song.
Chad threw out an interesting stat last night as we were watching Rallette's fight song.
I'm going to give you a number.
And then I'm going to tell you what that number represents.
What I challenge you to, sir, is who represents what that number represents.
The number.
Now don't look at the chat room because somebody's going to say it.
I don't want them to.
Don't say if you know what we talked about last night.
The number is 164.
There's the number of championships held by one man.
Who is that one man?
Loller.
It's very good, sir.
Well done.
Got it.
Many times.
Yes.
Jerry Loller has held more championships than anyone in the history of professional wrestling
at 164.
Wow.
And 150 of them were in Memphis.
I don't know.
I'm just guessing there.
Also, in an entertainment weekly interview last Friday, the rock says he will both wrestle
and do movies.
Basically, the gist of this interview, he said, I'm going to be in the WWE as long as they'll
have me and as long as it makes sense for the character.
Okay.
He's kind of going with the flow on this, and I think Rocky realizes that street lights
on.
Oh, yeah.
Make it why he can't.
Now, I wouldn't be surprised if he disappears a couple of weeks after WrestleMania because
he does have a movie to promote that comes out at the end of April.
But I hope he's there.
Then there's this story.
The genius.
Did the genius have something to say?
The genius Lenny Poffo let something fly over the weekend.
He said, I'm not going to tell you what because my brother will kill me.
His brother being one Randy Poffo, also known as the macho man Randy Savage, he said.
And I quote, Randy's going to be coming into the WWE within the next month and he's coming
in a big way.
To me, there's only one thing that makes sense.
Boot link, boot link.
You think?
Now, you made a prediction last week that got past me, but as I was listening back to
the show, you think it's going to be cool.
I think that's a terrible idea.
I think the whole thing needs to be.
We need to find out what's going on.
This storyline, in my opinion, is going on too long.
But if it is fun, it's great.
But I mean, to me, bringing him in is the GM.
That's really the only way to bring him in with maximum pardon upon impact.
Let me imagine.
All of a sudden, the GM reveals itself in a circumstance cranks up.
You could even sort of it where call goes, yeah, it wasn't me, the whole time, and that
place.
You think the rock showing up blew the roof off the joint?
Yeah, I'm on board with that.
Because in with the hair dyed, that or do we, I've got come, I'll get, I don't want
to waste.
I've got some things I'm saving for Sunday.
I don't know if I want to.
I don't know if I want to.
That Fox and Houndon Richardson.
Yes.
Just a thought, I'm going to put that in here.
You came up with this net, and he was in his hometown.
We were in Chicago, Illinois, and we have the WWWE logo, and then all of a sudden, here's
CM Punk sitting in the millering.
Yes, man, this thing's worked.
I did not think this could work with him.
But it's worked. I think he is so over as a heel. He really is.
And even in his hometown, he got some cheer. He said,
my people of Chicago, of course, you're going to get the cheap pop.
But if you listen though, he never dog the people.
No, when they started booing him, he was like, no, he said,
if you aren't from my town, I don't care about it.
And if this thing with him and Randy, God damn it.
Barbar why I disagree, he's not going this,
he's not going to Raven round.
No, it just, this thing with him and Randy's weird.
And I just don't know where either character goes from this feud.
I just don't know where we're going.
I don't want to get a whole lot into a lot of these matches.
Because like I said, I'm saving it for Sunday.
So I'm going to dance around the feud.
I just don't know where we go from here.
Now this next one I went, there's a very easy explanation here,
sir.
You asked why was the core on Raw?
Three words.
Yes.
Tag team champions.
Yes, I just, they defend on either show.
They're going to bring the core with them.
That belt on Barrett looked, it looks bigger.
It does.
You're absolutely right.
I think they have given him a bigger, man, that belt looked.
That's a big old bowl.
I was thinking, man, that belt looks big on Barrett.
But we did see the day view of the IC strap
around the waist of Wait Barrett last night.
Now Chad, let me go back a little bit.
Because Chad is asking a question here.
We talked about this a little bit last night, Chad.
He is on a WWE legend contract, the, the, the, the,
and we're talking about Randy Saff, the hasbroer, Mattel.
Mattel's doing the bigger, so yeah, that's, that was signed
right around Comic Con in San Diego this past year.
So yeah, he is on a Legends contract, that's the WWE.
Found out that Kevin Nash, and we didn't know him.
I was just kind of breaking down.
He is also under a Legends contract.
He did an interview.
If you saw it online.
For those of our listeners that aren't wrestling educated,
because we do the same thing with NASCAR.
Explain to our listeners what a Legends contract is.
A Legends contract is.
I don't know how to stow it out here.
A Legends contract to me means Vince pretty much owns, I don't want to say you.
But as far as whatever character like these,
likeness rights, likeness rights, DVDs, figures, video games.
Anything he wants to make of you, he can.
And you can get very wealthy off a Legends contract with Vince McMahon.
Now, and the other side of that is, since Vince owns the likeness,
if, if Randy went somewhere else, he'd have to be Randy Poffo.
Yeah, he couldn't wear the fringe.
He couldn't come out, so maybe he couldn't wear the shave.
Yes, Vince now owns, now he now owns names.
I bred the hitman heart.
Hulk Hogan, Hulk Hogan.
Although Hogan does have rights to the name, but there's a couple guys out there
that Vince owns Lockstock and barrel as far as names.
So that's where that comes from.
Yeah, Chad is right.
Poffo never specified who he was working for,
but he's under a Legends contract, and it has to be done.
Exactly, it has to be.
Uh-oh, now.
Perfect timing.
We got a little bit of news last night.
We thought that the Bieber was going to be singing America the Beautiful?
No, sir.
It's going to be this lady right here, things with Timberland.
I love this song.
Oh, yeah, great beat.
Carrie Hilsson sings America the Beautiful, the Sunday at WrestleMania.
You cannot imagine the amount of relief that went through my brain when they have revealed
this, and it wasn't going to be the Bieber.
Bieber.
Yeah, I know Vince.
I thought for a minute Vince would do it just because a lot of people think that he equals
a by-rate.
So I don't know if him singing America in the middle for two minutes equals a by-rate.
Let me tell you something, buddy.
If you watch this next segment, and your temperature didn't go through the roof, you
need to just watch something else.
We get to the top of the screen.
We get to the top of the second hour.
I don't know if you noticed this.
Taker comes down first.
Triple H gets halfway down.
The lights go out.
Did you understand that?
H interrupted Taker's entrance?
I got you.
Taker was going to interrupt him.
I got you.
I thought that was really cool, because it was very subtle, because you spent a couple
of minutes going, um, I'm sorry, I'm sorry Julia, I never did say who singing Carrie
Hilsson is singing America the Beautiful.
I never did say who she was.
I apologize.
Um, the wheel's back on.
So the lights come back out, H and Undertaker in the ring were just about to fire up this
promo, and then all of a sudden, this is where I got worried, I went, okay, what are
we doing?
What are we doing?
What are we doing?
If you missed it last night, Triple H is about to open his mouth, and this happened.
I don't care.
That was Road Warrior Pop, buddy.
When that music, when Sherry Martell, God restress, when she did that scream, that was Road
Warrior Pop.
He blew the roof off the All-State Arena, formerly the Rosemont Horizon.
Then you, I got nervous, and this is your guy.
I did not know where we were going.
I know the special guest ref rumors have been around since this has been done.
I got real nervous when I saw him, okay, now we're going to try to get Shawn involved
in this deal, and I think we said it last week, he's gotten so much press, so it's
camera time.
He's going to show up.
He was going to be involved somewhere.
Plus, he's going to the Hall of Fame, so he will be in the arena.
I have a prediction, which I will, till Sunday, okay?
But I think Shawn's involved in this match, at WrestleMania, how so.
Now you've gotten to the point to where the first time in this streak, which like I said,
Sunday night, join his thoughts at hand, we will dissect the streak.
Absolutely.
How many really bonafide Hall of Famers are in this streak, and how many was it just to
accuse a bunch of jabronis in this streak?
I just something about him being there to me got real flunky, okay, is he going to super
kick both of them and leave, and he tried to super kick one of them.
It was really, it was just really weird, at that point in time, I didn't need Shawn there.
I think now you've got the mentality of it's Triple H versus the World in the Undertaker.
To me, they've spun it.
I think Triple H can end this streak.
I've said it all wrong.
I don't think it may-
Our good friend Andrew Beckham believes otherwise, but I just don't think it makes any sense
for the Undertaker to win, because I've said for a couple of years now that I feel that
the Undertaker was going to try for 20.
He-
I don't know that he can go another one.
He looked like a bag of bones.
It's like when he was walking to the ring, I was kind of singing along with his- with
that- with his song going, how many times do I have to shoot?
Now I did like the video package that they did.
Oh yeah, the only one true, it can only be one.
And I like Tripp, I am that one.
But why are we ignoring the fact that he's part of the streak already, we've already
worked.
And that's one thing with the booking on this.
We're totally ignoring the fact that Triple H is already part of the streak.
But for me, this, if Tripp loses, sending him into the back two or three years.
Chad says if he, if the Sean, if he couldn't do it, he doesn't want H to do it either.
I said-
And remember at the end of this thing, Sean was walking away, all he would say is,
I don't think you can beat him.
I just, I just, and now you've got Tripp with the mentality of me against the world.
I did like what he said was, I'm not Sean Michaels, I have to win every night.
And it's-
And it's a lot of respect.
Oh, he looked at the takeer and he says, there's nobody I respect more except this guy.
He pointed at Sean.
Great.
And then the chance of one more match won't happen.
Sean, as much as I like, now nobody loves Sean or you love Sean.
I'll always say it was always a great Sean to death, but I really think Sean loves his
life too much.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Come back.
Beat, beat, beat, you know, be a GF for night, be a guest star, I don't do a referee bit.
I don't see unless we really know the rock will get involved in the main event of WrestleMania.
This has to be your main event.
This is the main event.
This is the last match in the car.
This is those two very, very respectful, respectful promos and let me ask you this though.
We've covered this on this show many times.
They're out there being allowed to book this match themselves and what that means for
those of you that are not wrestling educated.
They're actually scripting the match out.
This is not being done through a what we call a booking committee.
This isn't through a bunch of writers.
Triple H and the undertaker are scripting this match on their own.
Do you think of this point?
Do you think either one of them feels pressure at this point or for both of them is just
another day in the office?
Well you've got to deal with the act of you don't want to damage either character.
No, you can't.
I think with the undertaker you've got such that legacy of what he is.
Was he a great champion, but no, by no means.
Triple H, like he said, he's won all the bells.
They're done at all.
Time World Champion.
Yeah.
Most of the time I see European tag.
He's done it all.
The only belt he's never held that's active right now with the US belt.
It's a funny thing with him is I think you don't want to damage each character.
I'm saying I don't know.
I think they stop it.
I think something happens with it.
Excellent question from Barbara.
I don't mean to blow your wheels off.
It also kills your dirt sheet.
Barbara asks a very, very good question.
Go ahead and finish your thought.
No, it gets a question.
It kills your dirt side.
No, let's go back to what you're talking about.
No, I'm done.
So they are both booked for the night after Raw.
The Raw after WrestleMania.
They're all being advertised.
Barbara asks, does that mean no one will know the outcome until it happens?
I would like to think, I would like to think that even Vince doesn't.
I think even Vince is gone.
You boys go out there and do your thing because I don't have to, you guys have been around
me long enough.
I don't have to approve this.
I want to, if I'm Vince, I'm going, I want to watch this as a fan.
Yes, that's going to be a lot of fun that night.
Vicki.
Vicki came out, did Morrison's entrance.
I thought it was funny.
I'll give it to her.
But that leads him to my next point.
We have an eight man tag match for WrestleMania.
Big Show, Kane, Morrison and Daniel Bryan?
No.
Who was the fourth person last night?
The deal with the core is, it's the core versus Kane, Big Show, Santino, Morales, and
Coslo.
Yeah.
Morrison's with the chick.
That's right.
And it's the core.
So this means your icy belt's not getting defended and your tag belt's scared you're
getting it.
But you will have a return match between Daniel Bryan and Shane, it looks like.
And last night, I was right.
But here's my thing.
Isn't this WrestleMania?
No, that's just, they're never going to get over that.
That's just how it is now.
The thing of doing a pay for you when we were just never worked with it.
Half of your belts are not being defended.
Honestly, I couldn't tell you who has the divas belt.
And so your divas belt's not getting defended as far as we know.
Your tag belts aren't getting defended.
Your inner continental belt is not getting defended.
That's half of your belts gone.
Was I right?
No.
Ladder.
Money in the bank.
Yeah.
I think you're going to see a little bit more substance in some of these matches.
It's going to be a good thing too.
Chad brings up an interesting question.
The tech crew would need to know how to know what advanced for the victory pyro.
Don't know.
Prepare for both.
Yeah.
It's like the Super Bowl.
Have both sets of confetti ready.
But I was right.
The rock shows up.
No.
Oh no, this next part.
We haven't got there yet.
We spoke.
I don't have the theme.
This has kind of been leaked.
A lot of these has been leaked this year.
Yeah.
Of course, being in Chicago, me and Rob, New Wednesday, that it was going to be the road
wars.
The only thing is would they put in precious Paul Ellering and they did.
Precious Paul Ellering.
I've said this before.
One in one A and one B.
Yes.
Classy Freddy.
Blassy.
Bobby Hainan.
Paul Ellering.
Great.
All.
Jay Jay Dylan not far behind.
Yes.
I just enjoyed and enjoyed their work.
Great tag team.
Very deserving to go in.
It's just a damn shame.
Both of them aren't going in together.
But something we talked about to appreciate that it's amazed me was we haven't said for
sure.
He knew that ducting.
Yeah.
Anybody.
Anybody.
Usually we at least know.
One of them.
Heard Triple H is going to induct Sean.
We don't have that set in stone.
And unfortunately, USA and WWE in their infinite wisdom is only showing one hour of the Hall
of Fame ceremony again because apparently we need more reruns of burnt notice and they're
going to show that same hour of the Hall of Fame an hour before Raw on Monday night.
This is Saturday night.
You're not going to have anything with ratings anyway.
Get some ratings by doing the entire Hall of Fame ceremony.
A Pacific Blue.
I don't even think anybody shows Pacific WGN shows Pacific so the rock does show up.
So stockings is in.
The rock is in the ring.
I still don't understand your opinion that he didn't look like he could go since he's
come back.
Now I'm just kidding.
I'm curving around on that.
But let me tell you something.
He's over as anybody I've ever seen.
It's mighty.
I'm going to tell you something.
When we're talking about, we're going to talk about classic match here in a minute.
As I watch Clio, we'll talk about that when we get to it.
I'm just so excited about that.
Yeah, it's just in the scene of Hill Heat.
I think the only thing I could.
But you know what I was doing last night?
Constantly hitting the play button on my DVR to not let this cut off.
Yes.
It's the only thing ran after.
The only thing you have seen, the scene, the turn of scene I think is starting to
begin.
But is it a dice?
John, die?
Tyredill.
I think it's going to be close because the one thing that's getting lost and all this.
Here's my thing.
Cena said something in that promo that kind of made me go, okay, if we're going to do this,
let's be careful.
I appeal to the kids.
That's who I'm here for.
Careful.
Careful.
But I agree with you after Rocky gets beat down by the Miz, gets out of the ring.
Rocky's run his mouth turns around straight into the attitude adjustment.
And Cena's just smirked the whole time.
So I think I've got this what we've been clamoring for since Summerslam is the door now
open for a John Cena heel turn at WrestleMania this Sunday.
I don't see how you heel turn him at WrestleMania.
He's fighting another heel, not if Rocky's in the match.
I think he is because now he's had the physical confrontation.
There has to be ramifications or I think I think Rocky gets involved in the match and
I think it's a three way dance.
And as much as it scares me to say that he wins it, Miz retains it.
Yes.
I think I don't know.
But here's the deal.
I don't get that.
Give you a little bit of a tease of what you're going to hear.
Sunday night.
If you are not at Foxenhound on Sunday nights, there's something wrong with you.
Exactly.
Foxenhound Richardson, Texas, just west of Central Expressway on Campbell Road.
Google it.
You want to be there because we're going to be there doing a live pre-show.
You hear us each and every week.
We're actually going to get to watch us do what we do.
Yes.
You're going to see me and all my hand gestures and Cody constantly twirling his pencil and
drinking a cup of coffee sometimes.
I can't wait.
The closer this thing gets the more excited I'm getting.
This is WrestleMania, my friends.
This is the showcase of the Immortals.
If you come see one live show this year, this Sunday is it.
Absolutely.
Three bucks ahead.
Three bucks ahead.
Can't beat it.
That's less than 10% of what you pay for at the house.
Yes.
But that leads us into this week's classic match as Rock, the Rock, versus Hollywood Hulk
Hogan still at that point in time in Toronto.
Yeah, that was weird to me.
WrestleMania X-8 is what we're talking about March 17th St. Patrick's Day in the year
of our Lord 2002 Skydome in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 68,237 people set a record attendance
for Skydome at WrestleMania X-8.
It's the second time WrestleMania was in Toronto.
They were there for WrestleMania 6.
My good friend, Rob Lance was there.
Matt, our pre show will start at 5.
The pay-per-view starts at 6.
Want to make sure we get that?
We'd love to see him.
Yeah, absolutely.
Nice guy.
WrestleMania X-8 gross receipts of 6.1 million Canadian which converted to 3.9 million
American.
Lawler and Ross were your commentators.
Coach, Cole and the lovely and talented Lillian Garcia were your interviewers.
Fingle was still the ring announcer, Teddy Wong was still a ref at this point.
The thing about this match, Hogan, Rock, I legend versus Icon, not a lot of setup involved.
No.
Basically, Rock and Austin basically were taking on the NWO, and if you remember on Smackdown,
Vincent said, I have to bring back something that I didn't want to, and he was talking to
an empty chair that had the NWO logo on it, and at that point it was just Paul Nash Hogan.
Austin would take on Paul with Nash in his corner.
When I cut this up on YouTube, I actually found a feed that had the video feed for right
after that match, where Paul and Nash were in the back talking about, we're not going
to let this happen again, we're going to be there for Hogan, we're going to beat the
Rock down, and Hogan comes in and says, brothers, I need to do this on my own.
I'm going to beat this Gibroni, I need to do it by myself, so I know that I'm the man.
Let's run the cart.
Sunday night heat, Rikishi, Scotty Tuhadi, Al and Albert, defeat Mr. Perfect Lance Storm
and Test.
Jacqueline, was your referee?
Rob Van Dambe defeats William Regal for the Intercontinental title.
Diamond Dallas Page defeats Christian for the European title, and I'd forgotten the European
title was still around at that point.
See, they said Maven no contest at Gold Dust for the Hardcore title.
The Hardcore title was still 24-7 at this point, because after the Nash Hall Hogan piece,
there was Molly Holley with the Hardcore title running down the hallway and gets knocked
out by the top half of a door by Christian who then pins her and gets the title and runs
off.
Maven won it back at some point.
Current angle defeats Kane.
The Undertaker defeats Rik Flair.
We just talked about Stone Cold Steve Austin defeating Kevin Nash, or Scott Hall with Kevin
Nash, Billy and Chuck, defeat the APA, the W Boys and Stacey Keyboard, and the Hardy Boys
for the tag titles, then after this match, I thought this was weird.
I'm not saying this needed to be the main event, but this should have gone after, not before,
jazz defeating Trish Stratus and Lita for the women's titles.
And then your main event, we talked about two weeks ago, Triple H defeating Chris Jericho
with Stephanie McMahon for the undisputed title.
This match went 16 and a half minutes, and a lot of poses, a lot of poses, but only these
two guys could do a match where you could be satisfied with that.
They actually did call him Hollywood Hulk Hogan.
This night's raw promo at the end with Roxena and Miz, very much mirrored.
The promo between Hogan and the rock leading up to this match.
Very, very much so.
This was Hogan's 10th WrestleMania appearance.
It was his first of WrestleMania appearance in 9 years, but the only time Hogan did not
headline WrestleMania.
And remember what happened the last time he was in Toronto for WrestleMania, lost to
the warrior.
Yes, sir, he did.
It was weird when they were doing the video package set up because Hogan kept saying
it's good to be back in the WWF.
I had forgotten that we had to drop the F, yeah, and I kept whipping my head around like
is he, is this like Brett when he first came back?
But then the rock said it, so I'm like, okay, I guess we were still WWF at this point.
Did you, what do you think of the entrance way of this one?
Like to, I liked everything about this match except for the fact that I just didn't think
there was a lot of wrestling.
But you're right, both wrestlers did switch places.
They started booing the rock and cheering for Hogan.
Because they were in Toronto, they were in Toronto, and that crowd was insane for him.
He's big time over in Toronto, always has been.
And I've never actually this question because you and I have talked about this match on our
own at Nazio.
But what do you think in your mind?
What was Vince's logic on trying to bring Hogan in a hill in this?
I don't know.
Something different, trying to see if he could do what WCW did.
Not in Toronto.
It happened.
But the rock does win.
Yep.
Early sell.
Did you watch when Rocky came off with the flying forearm?
Hogan sold it a little too early.
I think like Rocky came like five feet from him.
Who's a bad spot?
But he knows Rocky.
No sells the light drop.
How many people do you know that have done that?
And get away with it not many.
Warrior Goldberg.
I think that's the list.
Maybe the giant?
Sean?
Sean Overson.
No sold everything on that match.
Oversold.
Oversold, yeah.
And then the red rock puts the rock bottom on him three times before the pants.
Hogan kicks out every time.
Finally, people.
Zellabo.
Rock wins.
Now if you've read of a red rock's book, this is how he opens his book talking about this
match.
And he says in his book, as I pinned Hogan, I leaned over to him and said in his ear,
thank you for this.
I love you.
And then Hogan said to him, it was my honor.
So and then afterwards they shake hands, rockets him back in the ring to do the pose down.
This to me, when you talk about Rocky being the most electrifying man and professional
wrestling today, this match was one of those that showed it.
These two guys and Hogan still kind of could go at this point.
Be good at that point.
Yes.
I mean, this was 2002.
Think about that.
That was nine.
At this point, just past the ninth anniversary at this point, Hogan could go.
Great match.
Great match.
Next week, we may stick with the WrestleMania theme.
We may not.
Really?
You're going to change your mind on it.
Got something else on it, maybe cooking.
Really?
Yeah.
We'll figure that out as we go.
But Matt says he'll be in town for a wedding.
So we'd like to see him.
Absolutely.
A little hardwood action.
I'll let me get the music you'd up, absolutely.
Got a whole lot going on.
Is that season's winding down?
Absolutely.
One thing, the next.
I thought Melo was going to make them an instant title contender.
They have they averted losing six.
Boy is he backpedal in here?
Boy they averted last night from losing their sixth straight game.
I don't know if the acquisition of possibly acquiring Chris Paul next year in Fragency
can this help the next?
They're bad.
Until they learn some defense on that team, no they look like the Donnie Nelson coached
Mavericks.
Ooh.
No defense.
No defense at all for the next.
In my opinion.
I mean, he'll show them the scorecard.
But real quick, no reason to do in standings.
They're playoffs scenarios now.
Yes they are, sir.
Everybody does one thing that to know real quick, the Chicago Bulls retained the number one
spot in the East.
By one game, as they would host the Indiana Pacers, followed by San Antonio and Memphis.
For some reason, that matchup jumps off this screen to be for some reason.
Which one is it?
Memphis and San Antonio.
San Antonio is banged up right now.
I think they've got to get some guy to help.
I think Memphis can knock them out.
There's, I don't know.
Right now, there's been some moving around.
Right now, Boston would host the NICS at the two in the seventh state.
Well, Boston trying to hold on.
Yes, they are on live support.
Right now, another switcher, Rude, L.A. would host New Orleans.
Oh, L.A. would sweep them.
Yeah, that would be ugly.
Another switch, Miami would host Philadelphia.
Congratulations to the Philadelphia 76ers, just to get to the party.
No kid, from 12th place to 6th place.
You know what, I couldn't name four guys in the team.
I don't know.
Yeah, man.
Right, Dallas, Portland.
Like, yeah, I said this last week, I'll say it again.
That matchup gets chippy.
There's just, they play April 3rd.
They have regular season matchup.
We'll be pretty occupied.
They actually play Sunday night in Portland.
I'm sure we'll have that on the screen.
Orlando hosting Atlanta preview from last year in another switch.
The Thunder would host the Nuggets.
Thunder, Thunder, Thunder.
So that's where we're at.
standings don't matter.
A lot of these teams are getting locked in to where they will go.
If I had to pick an upset right now
and don't hold it against me, I just think Memphis
will give San Antonio fit.
So that matchup jumps off the screen at me when I see that.
Really?
Yes, I don't know.
I don't know.
With the Duncan thing and the Parker thing with the injuries.
There's just something going on there
that I think a young Hungry with nothing to lose type Memphis team.
Might be able to get in San Antonio's head
and win a couple ball games.
I.E. Oklahoma City and the Lakers.
Last year.
Kevin Durant hung around just like we got in the Lakers
getting knocked out in the first round by Oklahoma City.
Nobody could win on the road next year.
Yeah, I just think this is that Memphis San Antonio
is that for Oklahoma City LA series from last year.
Wow.
And that's all I've got for the NBA right now.

It's just called.
Cold.
It's going to be on Spike TV.
Strange.
Well, strange.
I think staged.
Chilean.
Chile.
Just kind of set that up.
Just happen to be guys doing interviews with powder.
That to me, that looks a little.
I'm going to go back to this next point.
You know, if you know me.
You know that I will always be the first to admit when I'm wrong.
Just makes it a lot easier on everybody.
But I'm going to say something that a lot of people, if you had gone back a year and said,
Rob, you're going to say this on March the 29th of the year of our Lord 2011.
I'll laugh down the building.
Turn this down, sir.
Everybody can hear me.
American Idol.
We'll survive.
I swore up and down.
This would be the whole show.
Oh, you mean both.
You and me both.
It's been good.
They've got a great amount of talent this year.
I thought the Steven Tyler Jennifer Lopez thing would be failure.
It's at least passable.
It's doing.
It's still the number one show on television.
Although the ratings are down a little bit, it's still crushing everybody else.
Yes.
It works.
I mean, they've made some tweaks.
Everybody's had their own producer every week to work with.
Tody Iomi, who basically runs the label.
Is there working with them?
I can't say too much bad about the show right now.
It's doing well.
And it's keeping me entertained.
Yes.
So on the other hand, Survivor, that show might be done.
This season is so terrible.
It's just like, we've now done this, what, 24 seasons.
And they can still find people that don't seem to know what that shows about.
And still make the same mistakes everybody else has ever made in this show.
That's television.
It's insane.
It's insane.
I don't know Barbara.
Barbara thinks Lauren will win.
I really think P is got what it takes to win the whole thing.
I've got Casey as a dark horse.
If you watched Idol last week, you know that the judges use the one save they've got for him.
It's going to be interesting.
It's going to be real.
I think it's going to come.
This one's going to be a good finale.
Gridiron.
That being said, let's go to somebody who,
let's go to a sport that may not be on television.
Yeah, real quick.
Let me get you some music.
Do you have a little bit of NFL talk?
I know it's been kind of mum on a lot of different deals.
But right here, close to home for you and I.
It's a quip to leave.
Yes.
Garland, Texas.
G-town.
G-town.
Garland was arrested by Garland police.
Oh, did they arrest him?
Because I knew they were arrested.
And he has been arrested.
He has been arrested by Garland police.
He is in custody.
Yes.
Shot a man March 21st.
Now there's shot at a man.
Now they're saying a pistol whipping issue.
Oh, no.
To leave.
Obviously, a Garland native went to Richardson Berkner High School.
If you're here locally, you know where that's at.
Weird story.
A very strange story.
25 years old has 15 interceptions in three seasons with the NFL
currently played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Ooh.
Yeah.
So don't know.
A quip to leave's bail will be said at $25,000 according to the Garland police department.
Let's move on to as Desi does, Dallas.
Sorry, man.
Des Bryant.
I don't know.
I think when Deon Sanders distances.
And I've got a few.
I don't know what to do with Des Bryant right now.
Of course, if you listen last week, we broke on this show.
Is it broke?
To us from the four-letter network on the DFW tab that Des Bryant got into an altercation
with a security guard about some sagging issues at North Park Mall.
Now it seems like one, a civil suit has been filed against him
that he owned one jeweler, $246,000 worth of jewelry he never paid for.
Let me just say this about the North Park incident.
It's real simple.
If you're in somebody else's house, you play by their rules.
Exactly.
And if they tell you to pull up your pants.
Pull up your pants.
But today, another lawsuit by an elo hunt,
the Colleyville, Texas jeweler and ticket broker,
said Bryant hasn't paid for jewelry and tickets to sporting events,
including the first Pacquiao fight at the Cowboy Stadium
to the excess of $600,000.
So if you play for the Dallas Cowboys,
you still have to pay for events in that stadium.
I would imagine.
I would have thought the other way.
Okay.
I would have been able to play for the team if they just give you tickets.
Also, to break it even more around, there's rumors out now
that he received thousands and thousands of illegal money
and benefits while a wide receiver at Oklahoma State University.
Okay.
Show of hands.
Who's shocked by this?
Nobody should be.
Show my speech sprouts with that.
On to other things.
I think we're seeing a little tink in the armor of the player's union.
Not the exact term, but.
Would you go with that?
Whatever.
As they have canceled their draft night event.
Telling you, it's the NFLPA.
It's not as strong as everything else.
It's not.
I think this thing falls shortly after the draft.
However, have you heard the other late breaking news as it pertains to this?
Yes.
As they're paying the players from a fund.
That broke today.
That wasn't what I was referring to.
Iowa defensive end, Adrian Clayborn accepts his invitation to the NFL draft.
The first drafty to do so.
Good deal.
So there has now been a precedent set.
But the players also from you playing obviously if you're in a union, you pay union dues.
The players union said they will start paying players out of some of the union dues they've collected.
So you have that.
I think we're fixing to come at a breaking point here.
Right now, A&M women up 32-21 over Baylor at the half.
Wow.
So the upset brewing with Texas A&M.
But yeah, I think you're starting to see some cracks with the NFL players.
I think you're starting to see some things that are kind of not what they seem to be.
But that's NFL news.
Kind of slow this time of year.
The drafts a few weeks away.
And with this labor talk, there's just nothing going on.
These players are seem to find themselves in getting into quite a bit of trouble.
Yes, me.
So boy, thirsty.
Thursday, Thursday.
Woo!
Thursday night.
Yeah.
Or Thursday day, really.
Thursday.
And I've got a little weight breaking here before you get into these previews.
Yes.
Headline from Yahoo Sports.
The Giam B's.
Multiple.
Bond's trainer got us steroids.
Oh no.
This thing's getting ugly.
Look, look what it's been.
We knew the answered all these questions five, eight years ago.
And I really think now the federal government's just going until he gives up.
Also, Major League Baseball instituting a seven-day DL mandatory for concussions.
Good deal.
They're taking that role.
But concussion.
As we talk baseball, we are now one day, 14 hours, 55 minutes and 47 seconds away from Major League Baseball opening day.
2011.
Are you ready for some baseball?
Yeah.
I promised you the last two of our division previews.
We will start now with the National League West.
Where are you defending World Series Champion San Francisco Giants play?
We're saying that.
World Champion San Francisco is going to win.
Yeah.
You know, the thing about, I just, I don't know, San Francisco really kind of grabbed the lightning bolt by the tail last year,
making it to the World Series.
I didn't give them a chance of getting past Philadelphia.
But that lists them kids a beast.
Yeah.
You've got the closer.
You've got the closer with that crazy guy with the beard.
And Matt Cain, a great pitcher.
I'm going to have them repeat in this division.
Really?
I think they're good enough to win that division again.
They've got a great, they've got a great closer.
And they've got a great starting pitching as far as a rotation.
Nothing real flashy.
Other than Lipscomb.
But I think, let me come on the Rockies.
I think.
It's kind of a team.
Yeah.
The Rockies.
I'm going to have, I'm going to have coming in second.
Of course, big accusations.
Houston Street.
Local kid.
From the Dallas Fort Worth Metro.
You're not that girl.
That's peekaboo street.
Yeah.
Yadalbo Haminez.
An MVP candidate Carlos Gonzalez.
Returned for the Rockies.
Still have enough pitching to me.
The Los Angeles Dodgers, of course, new manager Don Mattingly
making his debut season coming in for the great Joe Torrey.
Rod Barajas is your catcher.
Casey Blake's your third baseman.
Matt Kemp, former love interest of the Rihanna.
Ella.
Ella.
Dangerous.
It's hard.
You know, everybody picks them every year.
And they're just, they're just not.
They're just something about the Dodgers.
You know, I'm not sure if Torrey, if Torrey couldn't do it,
Mattingly, yeah.
Glad you're getting the, in the course,
lastly, the San Diego Padres to me,
one of the, they were bad.
And the only thing they had was Adrian Gonzalez and they traded
him 60% of your offense was traded to the Boston Red Sox.
Of course, I'm picking you dead last in the NL West.
This is going to be a fun division because I think it's going to be a division
of we don't know, let's wait and see,
we know all these teams may be bad. You know what I'm saying? Oh yeah! So again it's like being the
prettiest girl and not be party. But opening day is Thursday some teams open on Friday. So Thursday
you know the president will be somewhere throwing out a pitch as we know as he I think if the
senators play at home he's usually in DC throwing out the first pitch. The nationals now
that's how off the radar with senators. That's who moved to Texas. That hasn't been the
senator yet. That's weird. I don't think that. Well I pulled that out. But Thursday March
2011 is your official opening. Didn't we just finish this thing? It seems like anyway Thursday
March 31st excuse me as 105 will be your first game as Detroit travels to Yankee Stadium at New York
to open with the Yankees. Good luck with all that. Atlanta at Washington so Barack Obama
will probably throw the first pitch out against your braves. No braves as they open up against
the Nattinals. Have you not predicted my braves to win? I did I. Yes. Mill walkie at Cincinnati LA at
Kansas City, San Diego, St. Louis, San Francisco and those Dodgers. Most of the league gets cranking
on Friday including Houston at Philadelphia, Pittsburgh at the Cubs, Chicago at Clea, Boston at Texas,
Arizona at Colorado, Minnesota at Toronto, the mats at your marlins. So the visual game,
Baltimore at Tampa, the visual game. LA at Kansas City, they're going to do it in the Seattle
Oakland and of course Dodgers, Dodgers Giants. Game 1 is kind of weird. Not too far to go. Now we know
getting on a prediction here that I know I might not be popular with here locally or the
here we go. So we will. There's only one division left. I left the two world series contenders
left. Lastly, that would be the AL West. Of course, you're defending AL champions. I thought my
grandkids, grandkids, grandkids would never say this. The Texas Rangers are your defending
American league champions. Charlie Huff will be an open pitch. Charlie Huff. Yes, Charlie Huff
but at first pitch. Now all you need now is Geno Petralli to catch it. And then I get my audition
tape. We couldn't find nobody else to throw out that pitch, but him. There was nobody else available.
That's right. Hey, I was there with me. I was there Michael Irving did it.
Hey, what's always his life? His fashion was his fashion.
I just, I'm going to throw the Wim and I'm, so you're going back with, I think Orange. Yes,
I think Anaheim gets better just by getting healthy. Really? I don't know if it's anybody that
they necessarily had to sign anybody, but they got pretty banged up last year, first part of the
season. And I don't think they ever recovered. And I think all start break they mailed it in.
And that's honestly, I don't, there's, I'm not going to throw out some stats. They've added
this guy. They haven't added anybody. They had a pretty good core and they got healthy.
That's just my opinion. Now, I'm going to give Texas a second place. I think they,
this team's basket was in the Clifle basket. We've said that way when they were still doing football.
We know that. I just think that them not getting Clifle, the Texas Rangers and their ownership
in management went into a panic mode. We've got to do something so they went out and bought a
player they didn't need by the name of Adrian Beltran. And then you have a can't, didn't you?
Beltran? Yeah. Then you have a can a clubhouse deal going on without Michael Young's not
with not happy. I just, there's too many question marks with this team as far as centerfield.
Barbone has not added up to what he was supposed to be in spring training. I want to
interview with the manager today and the man admitted it. Geez. We did not expect him to do so
poorly in spring training as he has. Wow. So we've done that. We've seen that. I'm going to give
Texas second. I'm not buying the Oakland hype this year. I've done that three years in a row.
To me, Oakland, but 80, but hey, man, 85 wins could win that division. Barbar.
Better than losing 100. I think 85 games could win that division easily. Yeah. It's just so
weird. It's 85 wins. Yeah. I still can't wrap my head around 16. And second play. I think 85 wins.
You might be right. I just, I don't see. I see the rainers being a good team. I see them being
contenders. But when C.J. Wilson, you're ace. I just, I just don't, he doesn't have that ace
pitcher field of me right now. So I'm going to go Texas. I'm going to go, excuse me, LA.
I'm going to go Texas. I'm going to go Oakland. And I don't know if Seattle needs to move the team
if get Griffey and J. Buna and Randy Johnson and Edgar Martinez. Yeah. They're the only thing
they've got is his contract running out. It's got to be, I know that he donated a bunch of
money to the Japan relief as well. It just seems like, but yeah, I just, and I could be wrong.
But I'm not going to make a world series prediction and wait, surely for stuff like that.
All start game. Yes, all start game. Yeah. I'll start to do that kind of stuff. But I like
at Anaheim, they just got better getting healthier. And somebody's turned a streetlight on them.
Almost. There's a couple of things I want to do real quick.
I don't want to say that we're geniuses. But we are. We are rivals.com headline.
Great scots. Pack 12 may play on Sundays. Yep. We've said it for six months now. Yep,
there it was. We are the smartest men alive. That was, yeah, we debated. They have not,
yeah, they have been really, how do you say it proactive? Also, a little local flavor,
which I want you to see after the show goes off the air. Big text getting a new shirt this year
at the State Fair. I know which one you're going to, uh, local Dickey's barbecue is having voting
for a new shirt for big techs out there to say fair to techs. I want you to see these after.
Good deal. Congratulations to big techs. Okay, random sports thoughts.
Wednesday, March 23rd in 1952. Real quick. Bill Mosiansko of the Chicago Black Hawk scores the
fastest hat trick in NHL history with three goals in 21 seconds. Yes. Thursday, March 24th,
1936. Detroit Red Winds and the Montreal Maroons. Open their first round best of five Stanley Cup
series in Montreal with the longest game in NHL history at 116 minutes and 30 seconds.
Boy, Friday, March 25th, 1971. The Boston Patriots announced that from now on,
they'll be known as the New England Patriots and play at Shaper Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts.
No longer with us. 1979, March 26th was the Magic Johnson Larry Bird NCAA finals game.
Interesting little quote for you, Billy Gardner, Minnesota Twins manager on his team's 93 losses by mid-season in 1983.
The way things are going for me, if I bought a pumpkin farm in Cancel, how will we? Wow. Like that. Excuse me.
And on this day, in 1982, this was North Carolina outlasting Georgetown.
Shot heard round the world. A men's championship game in New Orleans. That is correct.
Yes. Shot heard round the world. So there's your random sports thoughts.
That street light is on. Yes. Absolutely. It's time for the list. And you know,
hunters come into remind us that it's time. So we're gonna. Good list this week.
Good last little baseball field. We're getting into one of my favorite sports. A lot of listeners favorite sports.
And to me, the old regime of ball parks to me is almost
a dust in the wind as Kansas. Yes. I went with a list the top 10 active baseball stadiums going
today. And I got a little thing for you on this first one as you may not have heard.
I am going to go and it's it's a lot of these a lot of these are a lot of these are very new
state of the art ball parks. Number 10, Rangers, Rangers ballpark in Arlington. I've said it before
and I'll say it again. I don't care who they play. I don't care if they win or lose.
I love going to the ballpark. But did you see one of the new concession items at the ballpark
this year? Brand new soft pretzel that weighs three pounds. And Rangers ballpark in Arlington,
I have accepted your challenge. Also first ballpark to serve nachos. The greatness of the super
nachos. One concession stand the whole building. I'll find it every time I need when I go to ballgame,
I'm not a eater. I'm more of a consumer. I guess you'd say. Number nine, a ballpark that I've
seen on television. I really like it. I've heard good reviews from it. Camerica Park in Detroit.
Every time I see it on TV, I think I like it. I got that big tiger walking around the
room. Oh yeah. There's pretty cool. Number eight, a classic Dodger Stadium, Chavez-Rovine.
I didn't redo that thing. I need to get there. I need to find a way to get to Dodger Stadium.
We need somebody to sponsor us and go to every ballpark in the country. This is, I've
enjoyed two on this list that are classic that haven't been to. Number seven, Safe Co Field,
Seattle. Hosted WrestleMania. Seven. Yeah. How many can say that? Also first ball.
That's the only baseball stadium. Also only baseball stadium. The first baseball stadium
to serve sushi. You know, it's built right in the middle of rail yard. Was this the first retractable
roof? Yes. No Toronto. Toronto was? Okay. Number six, the new Bush Stadium in St. Louis.
That is a good looking stadium. That's a, it's looks just like the old one from the outside.
But the Bush Stadium, my wife is and family here, Matt, kind of sort of old cardinal fans.
It's been a lot of time. I'm saying we will see you send this. Yes, absolutely.
Number five, if you watch the World Series, you got to see a lot of scenes from the great AT&T
field once known as Pat Bell. Pat Bell. And Pat Co Park. Pat Co is insane. Yeah. Was it?
That's this shit. Yeah. Okay. So Pat Bell. So Pat Bell actually had my hand on that
stadium. Yes. Pat Bell Stadium. Pat Bell. The now defunct. Pat Bell. Great. I like it. The
the great. The water comes up right there. Just that was a great feel. Got to see a lot of that
ballpark because of the World Series. Number four, I've seen it firsthand. The new Yankee stadium.
You haven't been in it. You were the old one. Yeah. Well, the old one saw the new one. Great.
From the outside, if you've ever seen some classic photos from the original Yankee stadium,
the architecture looks the same. Great. They did a great job. The house that Steinbrunner built.
The old stadium, the house at Ruthbilt, House of Steinbrunner built. Number three,
a ballpark. You've been to Kandum Yards. Kandum Yards in Baltimore. Let me take some of that
stadium. First of all, right in the middle downtown. Yes. It's one of those stadiums that when
you walk in it, you just feel that history. Cool. It's amazing. Always like that. Number two,
Wrigley Field in Chicago. It's classic. Yeah. It's a classic. The Ivy. The Ivy. The Ivy, everything.
And number one, I've been to this one. I've got to go with Fenway in Boston. Can you debate it?
You're not hearing me. Now, I'm just going to tell you, eventually, both of those cities
going to have to make those stadiums have to go the way of the dinosaur. I don't know that they
are. I think I think with like Fenway, I think they'll just keep upgrading. Yeah, I love them.
I love them both dearly, but I don't know, man. I'd ever thought you'd see the original Yankee
Stadium ball. I never thought you'd see that. But from what I'm told, that one kind of got so
rigged. It was kind of like Texas stadium at the end. Yes, it was an older stadium. It was a,
well, they did, they did the remodel in 76. They did the remodel there. And it was a 70s,
the concrete, but it still was Yankee Stadium to me. That's it. The pendulum does swing back
to me. But before it does, you'll need to join us Sunday afternoon. We are five days away from
WrestleMania 27. Again, even if you're not a wrestling fan, come by and see us. They've got
other stuff going on. There will be Rangers playing that day. You'll have Mavericks playing
that evening as well. Ton of TVs, pool, dart boards, checker, they have checker boards too.
The checkers are chess and leather recliners. If you can get there early enough to get one of
those $3 cover, make sure you come join us. Until next Tuesday at 8 on the East Coast,
5 on the West Coast. For Cody, I'm Rob. My friends, the clubhouse is closed.
