Read Transcript
The Grand Experiments is on, welcome to the August 3rd of the year of our Lord 2010
episode of the Clubhouse. The Clubhouse is now open. I am Rob as always joined by Cody. We
episode four. We are live. We're calling it the live experience. Thank you if you're joining us
on you stream. We appreciate you being here. We're going to be here each and every Tuesday night
at seven o'clock until we're done. We're not being held into any standards by anybody for
any reason. No time clock. Literally because we don't have a clock on the wall. You're having to
use like a little tick clock that I keep in my office with bugs, bunnies face on it, but you know
whatever. First of all, we want to give a big shout out to Big Don with racetalk39x.com here on
you stream. Make sure you check out his show. He's been instrumental in helping us get some things
together and get things off the ground. Again, we'll be here every week, every Tuesday live from
seven until we're done. That's eight on the East Coast, five on the West Coast. West Coast,
I know you're just getting out of work and hopefully you can join us every week and if you can't,
we understand there too. And in Hawaii, it's lunchtime. Is it, yeah, are they that far behind?
They are. That's pretty close. Maybe if you're taking a minute, let's probably about two or three
there. Yeah. Late lunch. Don't quote me on that. Late lunch. The shows, we are not only broadcasting
live, but we are recording at the same time. So if you miss a show, they will be automatically
archived right here on you stream. The now, can we call it the official home of the Clubhouse Podcast?
Can we do that? Do that. Do we have it? If you can, we need to support. Yeah, absolutely. Tell
everybody and no, join our Facebook page. Look up the Clubhouse podcast. Make sure you put the word
podcast in there because if you don't have the word podcast, it's a whole different deal.
Full front on deal. And make sure we've got a chat board available for you. If you want to check in
with your opinions and we're going to maybe take a look at some of those, we've got that up on our
screen as well. Big news also. Not only are we live this week. Crazy. The Lord is mysterious.
He is and he provides, you know what Cody, I'm going to let you handle this next part because I'm
a little speechless right now that we've got this thing happening. First of all, you know, we want
to talk a little bit about cars, our very first flagship sponsor. If you ever in East Texas need a
car, stop by our friends and family at John Crow, Pontiac, GMC, and Buick in Canton, Texas.
Home of first Monday trades. Even if you're not in East Texas, go on out to Canada. It's a short
hour drive from Dallas, you know, straight up 20, straight up 80. Inventory, I was there this weekend.
If you like a GMC Sierra, beautiful cars. Of course, the popular Yukon Denali and the most
popular cars there. And the most popular vehicle on the road right now, the Terran, the GMC Terran.
Have you seen that thing? I have not seen one of those on the road yet. Very hard to find. They get
four or five a week and they turn on just as fast. Go up there and ask for Randy and he'll get
you fixed up and then move you on to Big Ken Ross there in finance. Easy process, country,
down-earth people, not going to pressure you, haggle you. And you know what? And I want to talk
about that because one of the biggest beat downs to me in the world is buying a car. When you say
no pressure, no, no, haggle, I'm on board. I'm already in. Yeah, it's one thing that turns people
off from the car is especially the new car. You know, they corner you. Nobody wants to be cornered.
They won't do that there. Pressure free environment. You're in beautiful Canton, Texas. So drive
to East Texas and save. Excellent, excellent, excellent. One of the things we do, we get a lot of
feedback from friends of ours and people who listen to the show. We have a couple of corrections
from last week. We're going to go through. First one is Frank Thomas. We talked about him a
little bit last week. Our good friend Lonnie sent us some information about Frank Thomas. We asked
him to and he did. He did. He did lose to Toronto in the ALCS in 1993. I know I said 91 or 92. And you
know what I did that because he's an Auburn guy. Yeah, Alabama guy. He never emails in.
So we don't expect any any Bama Crimson Tide stats. No, okay. Also says Frank was in the 2005
team, but he only played 28 games. So he doesn't think he got a ring on that. I'm tired of
ringless. Wow. It's hard to believe that. Thank you, Lonnie, for that. Also one more correction
from last week. We talked about a new album from Drew Hill. That was released in Drew Pendence
day. Our good friend Brandon. Let me know through an email that they are from Baltimore,
not Atlanta. So we want to make that correction as well. Now that we've got the business out of
the way, let's get to the stuff that we do every week. For as long as we're here, we hope you
tune in. We do have somebody that has just tuned into the show. We have one viewer. Thank you for
joining us. First things first, we go to sports. We always go to the greatest sport known to man.
And that is football. This is Hall of Fame weekend, which means yeah, it's the beginning of the
preseason, but it's still the Hall of Fame at the end. Yeah, it's a big deal. I don't compare this
to baseball to me. Baseball is the hardest hall of fame to get into. I agree. That was what
two weeks ago. Yeah, Andre Dawson. This is a good, this is a, there's some guys on this list.
If you're familiar with them, there's going to be some people that you're going to ask yourself,
okay, how come they're not in and this and then and he is and this, that and the other two of them.
Actually, one of them was a lock five years after he was pro. And I'm talking about Jerry Rice.
Absolutely. Real quick, bio on him, wide receiver checked in at six to 200 pounds. Wow.
Just think how small that is compared to your Antoine Valdens and Tio's in those guys and
Quonbolt and Quon, excuse me. Yeah, I mean, that was he was a skinny dude. I mean, and he was never
known for being the beefiest guy in the field, but brother, I'm going to tell you what, he had hands
and you blink, you're missing. Yeah, he was, he was, he was heck out there. Play college at a small
Mississippi Valley State. Yes, sir. 16th pick overall. As I remember, I'm sure if you're a cowboy
fan, you remember, he spent a big bunch of his time with the San Francisco 49ers from 85 to 2000.
Then I'm, you know, Tio came in and they were going another direction and he went off to Oakland
and had three extremely productive seasons in Oakland and finished up in 04 with the Seahawks,
then went to Broncos Camp and it was over. Well, but he did remember, he did sign that one day
contracts, we could retire. He did, he did what most these guys do. He did do that. Holds all,
it's too long to get into. Hold every single major receiving record that even exists.
Multiple Superbowl and Playoff records as well. Three rings. Superbowl MVP, which my co-host here
was in a halftime show. Superbowl 23 was the MVP of that Superbowl 13 Pro Bowls, all 80s,
all 90s in 75th anniversary team. Bar none, the greatest wide receiver of all time. Bar none.
I will not debate you on that. Who else, who else we got? Well, if we are, you know what,
we have explained our locale several times. You got Emmett? He Smith. I don't, I think I stop.
And that's almost a double, that's almost a double bias for me because I'm a pseudo cowboys fan.
So, and the other reason I became a cowboys fan was because Emmett, who went to the University
of Florida, was drafted by the cowboys. So I kind of followed him here. Um, I stopped there.
I tell the rest of these guys, hey, man, we'll catch you next year. Yeah, I don't understand.
Do we have to have a certain number in every year? It just doesn't make any sense to me. If
baseball can have a class of two, why can't the NFL go? Do you really want to be on the same
stage with these two cats? Yeah, it's going to be, uh, trust me, when I get to these other
ones that are a whole lot quicker and the resume is not as long as my arm. Um, you know, running back
five, nine, two, oh, seven is what Emmett checked in on draft day. So he's five inches shorter
than rice, but five pounds heavier. Yeah. Wow. Of course, played his college at Florida. Yes,
or he was a, a very highly recruited player coming out of Pensacola. Um, 17th overall pick in
the draft, you know, Dallas pulled off that crazy, Herschel Walker trade that made him a cowboy,
even being a cowboy possible, um, played 90 through 2002 with the Dallas Cowboys. And we all
remember what went on between O, um, O3 and O4, the Phoenix debacle. Yes, sir. Um, you know,
I look at a lot of these, a lot of guys do it. They think they've got it in the tank.
Rice did it. Emmett's done it. I think the, the Emmett played one year too long, in my opinion.
Yeah, the Arizona thing, I just, it hurt me to watch. Emmett was in what's bad is if you're
remember Roy Williams, not that Roy Williams, but the, the safety Roy Williams. He's the one
that kind of put a hat on Emmett and the shoulder and the, and his career in some retrospect
ended at Texas Stadium of God rest it. So I'm kidding. Rushing crowns 91 92 93 95 three rings
Super Bowl MVP of Super Bowl 28, 1993 league MVP 1000 rushing yard seasons 11 straight
ears. And oh, by the way, he's also the NFL all-time leading rusher on top of that.
Bar none. I don't know if he's the greatest running back of all time. I don't know that,
but I will say he's top three. And I want, and that's the topic too. Again,
I was told that there's a new drinking game with the show that every time I say that's
another story for another show, you have to take a shot. But that, with that, really, that's something
I want to definitely get into at some point. Yeah. Because there's somebody else out there that,
even I can say about Emmett, compared to Scott, we all know who it is. He's top three. He's top three
very extremely extremely deserving of John Randall. There's another guy that I'll be honest when
when I went over this list with you back after a month ago, we were super bowl time. Yeah.
And he was on there and I went, um, good. Maldi. There's one thing I remember about John Randall.
He was a mouth and he wore all the black. What would we say last week personality goes wrong? Yeah,
I think John Randall defensive tackle. Listen to this 61278 what he came in. That's a big old boy.
College Texas A and I. What is that now?
It's still I think I want to say it's going to Trinity Valley TV CC. I don't know that's even
possible. That's what his bio says. Wow. There's one of them out in Terrell and Athens.
Because you can show me a Texas A and I T shirt and I tell you that's a bit or
here we go. Undrafted free agent. Really? Was not drafted. Uh, most of the big bulk of his career was
1990 through 2000 with the Minnesota Vikings. And he did what's bad is from 01 to 03 in Seattle.
He had some of the most productive years of his career. Seven pro bowls, uh, retired with 137
and a half. How you get a half sack? I have no idea. You get a half sack when
you and somebody else are responsible for the sack. I believe that's how that works. Um, and,
pro bowl seven times already said that. All pro six straight season 93 through 98.
I don't see the resume there for John Randall. I just don't see something except the words
undrafted free agent jumps off the page and makes me think that's a Hall of Fame guy.
Well, I mean, if you remember, we had that conversation and you mentioned him and I said, okay,
that name rings a bell to me. With that name ring a bell to me.
As somebody who's fairly well versed in the NFL, I mean, somebody that's not one of your major
stars, I can understand it. I mean, he's, he might have been running out of votes too.
We're fixing to get real old here. Floyd Little running back Denver, um, played for Denver as an
expansion franchise 67 to 75 came in at five 10 196 1967. Um, Syracuse six overall pick in the draft.
Um, all pro four times. Uh, he was the, he was the vote getter from the veterans committee.
Was the Floyd Little 1971 rushing record. Um, from 71 to 73 had three 300 plus yard receiving
and rushing years. Once again, don't really see it in Floyd little longer. We're not broadcasting
here. Okay, we're broadcasting again. We lost the broadcast. Sorry if we lost you there for a
second. We are back. Keep going. Go ahead. Um, and I just, I really don't see like I said,
he was a veterans committee guy. Once again, I know, I know he's going to be like, Hey, how come,
Jane Nova check and how come this guy? How come that guy? Once again, I, the Hall of Fame's always
going to be a debatable thing. Always. Um, Dick Lebo former more known for a horrible head coach.
Yeah. Corner was actually funny thing about him. 6185 58 pick overall out of the Ohio State
University, cut by the Browns was drafted, cut and then went to Lions Camp and made the team
started 171 straight games. That's an NFL record at corner. Um, 12 straight years with three or
more picks ranks third all time in true corner back numbers. Hmm. Interesting.
And he come a Detroit. You're not going to have very many Hall of Famer. So be happy. Dick Lebo got
in. Same thing with this next team. Ricky Jackson, New Orleans linebacker, 62, 243. That's a big
old boy. That's a, that's a stick a dynamite. Um, pit, pit Panther, 51st pick overall,
played like us. Most of these guys stuck with one team for a, a very big amount of time. 81 to 93.
He was a member of the New Orleans Saints went through a lot of bad years there. Then actually
retired in 95 with the San Francisco 49ers. Six probals all pro 86 87 92 93 128 career sacks.
The Saints never finished below 500 in his last seven seasons. And also led the Saints to their
first division title. Nice. I know for a fact there's better linebackers than Ricky Jackson,
not in the Hall of Fam. But that's always a debate that you're always going to have though.
EIs act on this. He'll be there. And last but not least,
have a red skin. Got a hog. One of the original Russ Grimm, six, three, two,
seventy three. I remember him, sir. He was one of the charter members of the hogs.
Yes, sir. Um, 81 91 with Washington 69th pick overall. Wow. Yeah. Four probals.
Would you consider that a steal? Yeah, for what he became, obviously Hall of Fame guy. Yeah,
what what he became. I mean, he was, you know, let's be honest, they made, they made every,
they were kind of similar to what Denver's done back in the 80s. You stick a running back by,
you run out by committee, they could block for anybody. Some of the holes you could drive,
you could drive a truck through them. Um, 1980s all decade team five NFC title games in three
superbowl rings. That's his resume. The only one I've got Ricky Jackson in in in Randall. I just
don't see the, the Hall of Fame resume on those guys, but they're in Sunday, a Saturday afternoon,
they're in. And then Sunday evening, we get the Hall of Fame game Dallas Cowboys Cincinnati Bengals.
But before we get to Cincinnati, we've got a little something to talk about. We've got, you
know, I was going to tell you every week I have a TV in my office where we do the show from.
Right now we are on ESPN news, keeping an eye on a bunch of things. Pretty much 98% of your
coverage has been the announcement that allegedly Brett Farve is retiring. Honestly, I don't believe
this until the trade deadline. I mean, that's sad for me to say, but I'm, I'm so not sold that he's
retiring. Well, you're talking about a story that is half a decade old. Indeed. We've been on,
we've been on far watch for five seasons. Yeah. It's just to me, you know, the, the world wide
leader is all over it. He always, they will print Brett Farve. They've always have probably always
will. I just, I like, I believe with you. Once he's gone, he's gone. That's when I'll believe it.
Right now, I'm, I'm very skeptic because he's yet to make us sound. Suppose he's in a text that
said it's over and it was very cryptic and didn't really know where, where he was going with it.
And that's every all the contact anybody's had with Brett Farve.
What I've been hearing today is what he's seeing is that the ankle is not healing
like he thought it would. And because of that, this may be where all this is coming from. That
maybe he's realizing that maybe he's getting mortal. Yeah. And, you know, we just got off Hall of
Fame talking. We all know Brett Farve's a Hall of Famer. But I, you know, he leads. He has one,
two records, you know, most wins, completions. He's also got some records in the other direction.
He's always said he's got the records good and he's got them bad. He's a hit and miss guy.
I think we're going to look back as far of a legend. Oh, yeah. By far, it's, it's far of an
outlaw gunslinger type quarterback. Absolutely. Do I really think he's one of the all-time great
quarterbacks? I think he's in the top 10. Yeah. But I'll tell you what, he's in the Hall of Fame.
Oh, absolutely. Oh, he's first balled all the way all the way. Then I can now, can you get in the
Hall of Fame and come out and play? You know, I don't know that anybody's ever tried. It's like I
told you earlier that Sears commercial that he's so famous for now has really become a bit.
Yeah, you know, and God love him. I've got some Brett Memories and I think everybody does.
You know, last year he cost, you know, that New Orleans game. He was one completion away from
field goal range. They're in the Super Bowl. Yep. And I just think not only the ankle,
I don't know if far of could put two seasons like that back to back and make a run like that.
Oh, and it could also be argued that there are some rule changes coming in the NFL that are
directly because of what happened in that game. So I mean, he's a Hall of Famer. I'm kind of sick
of far watch if I'm being perfectly honest. I'm trying to find what's the right phrase to use.
Fisher cut bait is the family version of that phrase. Fisher cut bait, dude. Yeah, you know,
it's getting old. I think Brett Farves biggest fear is one day. He's going to wake up there and
had his bird Mississippi and get out of bed, kiss his wife and put on his Wranglers and go to
his front door and realize he's not a story anymore. I think Farves got a little prima don in him.
I think he's got a little bit of little little I'm trying to give a guy a bone. I'm trying to
give him a little bit of I don't think it's a little brother. But I think Farves got a little bit
of arrogance to him too. I think he likes people talking about him. He likes their retrospects on
his career. I think he's a fame, you know what? Yeah, but you know what the best way to have those
is don't have a career anymore. Then you're going to have all the retrospectives you want because
it's all making the shift. Especially in two particular towns because I really think at the end
of the day, Green Bay still reveres him whether they want it or not. We put them on the map, brother.
So, we want to go back to Cincinnati. As we were on the, did we not announce that on the
year last week that Tio had signed? Right. About an hour hour hour and a half before we hit the
area. Yes, absolutely. I just want to throw this out there. A quote from one of my personal
favorite fours. The great Dan Labatari. I know a lot of people can't stand him. I like the guy
and not just because he's a Miami guy. He refers to this team now as WKR Me in Cincinnati and
could there be a more perfect? Who would be Charlie Fever?
Carson Polar? That would Johnny Fever, by the way. Dr. Johnny.
Then, oh, Dr. Johnny Fever. Venus Flytrap. Less Nesman. Remember the more news,
less Nesman. And the great former Bert Reynolds wife.
Lonnie Anderson. Lonnie Anderson. Yes, sir. What was her name on the show?
If you're listed in the chat room and say something, we're watching the chat.
We're watching the chat room right now. It looks like we've got three people on right now.
Welcome to the show. We appreciate you being here. Remember.
Checks are in the mail. Thank you. Every Tuesday, eight on the East Coast, five on the West Coast.
Was that, was that just really AM radio of me to say that?
Yeah, it was. And I don't have my horn. We don't have to say them from sales walking around in a minute.
You know, Cincinnati, I won't tell you. I agree. A guy that I don't agree just a heck of a whole lot
with Michael Irving, they said it best. They will be dangerous.
If they can get me and you listen, folks, we do prep this show. We just don't make a list and
walk in here and go, hey, hey, hey, we were show prepping last week for this show and this deal was
done. If they can get a thousand yards out of Cedric Benson or a combination of running backs there,
this is a serious contender in the AFC. I'll just, that's one of those. There's one ball.
There's one ball on the field. And you can also say that down in South Florida.
There's one ball on the court. And sometimes these things just flat out in a different sport.
In a different sport. Absolutely, absolutely. Yeah, I just, I think they're going to be an interesting
to watch if nothing else. I'll keep going. I'll keep going. Oh, um, they'll be playing this Sunday night
in the Hall of Fame game against the Cowboys. Yeah, somebody will be playing. You may see a lot of
backup guys in that game. But you'll see them all at least. They need to honor the Hall of Fame,
guys. Let them play. And you said something last week that I really kind of resonated with me,
and I want to reiterate, if it's the Hall of Fame game, let your starters play the whole game.
It's the first preseason. Too risky. Too much money involved. At least a half. I'll go with you on a
half. I'm not going to go on a whole game. I'll go there with you. That's fine. Speaking of
other things of people that may or may not play, Albert Haynesworth, my God, man. First,
sure you want to be traded. And then, hey, you know what, I'm, here's my theory. And I have a
theory on this. And you when I talked about this last night, I think he knew he wasn't going to pass
that physical, but he went through the whole, hey, I'm willing to play ball. And I believe in this
defense now, just so when he knew he wasn't going to pass the physical, it wasn't a knee or knee
or knee or kind of situation, he might get some sympathy out of what I mean does this shock you.
It's Washington. Yeah, that's true. It's Washington. It's their typical circus. This guy just got
a hundred million dollar contract, a hundred million dollars. And he can't even get on the field.
He can't even, you know, there was a story real quick, a reporter, a female reporter. Not
that makes a difference. Almost passed this test. I saw that this morning on Yahoo news. Yeah,
she was a local broadcaster somewhere. And check me if I'm right. I want to say golic did pass it.
Really? I want to say that they have some footage up on ESPN right now. If you go to the NFL,
golic now or golic then golic now. Wow. Now we're talking golics lighter now than when he played. So
it's not a far fetch for me to believe that. Good mercy. Hey, as long as he maybe he'll
can't play the whole year and he won't play those two games against Dallas.
Speaking of injuries, the Desbariat saga continues. High ankle sprain. They're saying four to
six weeks. That would put him ready to go two days before the Cowboys opener. Is this Oklahoma
state all over again? Like I said, last week, he has not he has not played productive football in
two years. This guy to me is a guy who at times excitable fun to watch. He has some problems.
I think he's got an injury problem. It's already proven like the little the little firing squad in
the Miami Dauphins. He's got some life problems. I think he's going to be trouble. I think that
this is going to be something you see. But Michael Irving twisted his ankle, his rookie year,
too. And we know what he came out to be. And I'm not sitting here. I'm not sure I'm going to put
them into. Yeah, I'm not trying to put one in one that's in Canton and one that's closer to
Canton, Texas and the Hall of Fame. I hope the guy does well. I just I think this is the beginning
of your going to see a guy that may miss four to five games a season. We need to backtrack a
little bit. We do have a message in the in the chat room from it from one LT heart.
Our good friend and the Tony reality of this show. Very relevant. Jennifer Marlow is the name of
the local news personality. Jennifer Marlow, who almost did the drill and also interesting
opinion by by Lonnie as well. He says does has Ricky Williams written all over him.
Absolutely. I agree. I mean, hey, don't put him on big 12 guys. I mean, let's say hey,
okay, SEC, Lonnie and SEC. Okay, now we're all the troublemakers.
Oh, yeah. So we are 67% SEC heavy hardware. So, but yeah, you're right. I think I think he's a great
guy. I mean, a great player. And I like the whole deal, you know, today I get sucked into these
weight Phillips press conferences. Well, you know, you want to coach a guy that can sit on the
sideline and actually get coached when not really being coached. That makes no sense.
There's not one thing that might Gundie taught him at Oklahoma State that has anything to do with
a doubt. I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum with you on that particular not not the opinion of
being coached, but I hear press conference click. That's me now done. Well, I just like to, you know,
hear about the guy who was once a frog and got a kiss and became a king and now he's a coach
of the cowboy. I still think he looks like your high school gym teacher. I wait Phillips just
doesn't look like a head coach in the NFL to me. He never has. I want to say hi to my little,
my little adopted niece out there. We love her. Yeah. Most precious thing ever. Yeah. She's,
she's got that heart-sleeping face. Yeah, she does. I pointed that out. She does. And Christa,
how are you doing, honey? Good to see them. They came out and saw me for little violin Saturday night.
I had a great date night. That's cool. Where do I go? They came and saw me. Oh, they were on a date.
I wasn't on a date with them. Oh, it was not kind of part of you. Shaperone.
I don't know if you read about this today. I saw this on, gosh, where did I see this? Oh,
this was on an gadget, which is a blog that I read in their Nintendo Wii section. Madden06,
first of all, there are over 6,000 retired players that are filing a class action lawsuit against
EA sports for Madden06. What they're basing is that EA, quote, kept the stats and positions,
but changed the numbers and took names off of these players. I don't know if that has any water
to even even float. What are they going to split? What are these? How many do you say again?
Six over 6,000 retired players. What are they going to story right today? I mean,
are we talking about a dime from each game split by 6,000? Is that what we're?
I don't know. It's, I read this and I was like, first of all, this is Madden06. So you know,
it's in Madden07, probably in Madden08, probably in Madden09, probably in Madden10,
and I could almost guarantee you Madden11 and I want to talk about the Madden curse maybe next week
because somebody put forward to me that there's an NCAA curse and I don't know if that one exists
or not. I know the mad, I believe in the Madden curse, but we all want to talk about that maybe next
week on the show. I don't see this dog hunting. I just don't. I've been taking you this long to
get this thing together. You talk about a reach. I agree. Is this, is, is Ditka involved in this?
Because I know he was, in the story that I read, no one was actually named. Okay. Because I know
that he's been one and I agree. The guys need a pension, a better pension. The guys need, I agree
with some of the, some of the stuff that Ditka and Darrell Johnston, some of these older,
ill-sayers, some of these older players want these guys to have benefits and more money. I 100%
they made the NFL what it is today. Now I think you're, you're getting up on that step ladder and
you're reaching for the roof on that deal. That's a little far-fetched. And of course you have this
ongoing deal with the college players too, with, with the NCAA games and that's a no hold. That's
a topic that you could, we could probably do a half an hour on alone. Yeah. Because I'm kind of on
the fence on that. I see that one from both sides. Yeah. That's, um, um, uh, the NCAA. Good luck,
I'm gonna have a lot on that. Good luck, uh, NFL veterans committee. Well, we'll keep an eye on
that story for you. Speaking of the NCAA, we're gonna get into something that happened this past week.
And you and I talked about this a little bit. And we're gonna, there's somebody that's,
that's posting on the chat room. That's probably gonna be real attentive in this particular segment.
USC 2004 by done. They don't melt her down. They've had, they've had, you get the rings back. They've
had the national championship taken away from him. What do you do? I mean, I obviously you told me
that Oklahoma has stated that they don't. Yeah. Stupes was brought up to him at big 12 media day.
And it's been brought up to him before. Um, they're not. Come on. Nobody's gonna walk in and hand
anybody a national tile. And you're gonna celebrate that thing and print the t-shirts. I mean,
it's been almost 10 years ago. I, you know, I, I, it's barely five really five. Well, but in football,
I mean, 2004 to me seems like it does seem like an age seems like an age. Yeah, it seems like it was,
I mean, what makes that relative? It, you know, anyway, this was like the season that that never happened.
Um, you know, USC and I'll, I'll one to admit USC kicked our tail that night. 5519.
It was a match. You know, that was a team that Oklahoma was about one of the best teams that
they'd ever filled. It led the country. USC and OU were one and two and about every statistical.
There was, um, but then you had another problem. You know, a team called Auburn. Yeah. That kind of
showed a very well coached and prepared Virginia Tech team, the door and the sugar bowl. And
then you also had somebody named, uh, Urban Meyer down at Utah took that from the, uh, took that from
the abyss. Um, and, you know, I'm not, it's hard for me to say, I, and if you got instant,
instant feedback on this, well, we actually do. Lonnie's opinion on this is you should not get the
rings unless you won the game. Yeah. Well, and he prefaced that with so too bad Auburn. Yeah. So
he's looking at that very, but the Auburn got rings printed. Yes, they did. Tommy Tubberville was,
and he showed it. He was wearing a 2004 Auburn national title ring at big 12 media day last week.
Does he wear that at tech? It's going to be the closest he ever gets to one again.
Just wanted to kind of sidetrack you there for just a second. Um, you know, I, and I want to know
anybody. How many we got in there now? Right now we have three people in. I think one of them was
a repeat from when we went off the edges for a second. Um, we got three people listening again.
Thank you for joining us. Join us every Tuesday night. I'd like to know and hey, it's good for our
self-esteem. If you listen to this on the, on the, on the rebroadcast, email me those clubhouse
podcasts yahu.com. I'd love to get your opinions on that. Oh, I mean, I think the only one that
had two that have water Utah, be why you don't do it for me in that capacity. Um, I think it's
between Auburn and OU. I think when people might go towards OU, they were voted in the game.
But and call it my biased. I think that should Auburn Oklahoma should have been your national title
ring. Yeah, it should have. USC had a weak schedule and they held, then they held the Citadel.
Auburn playing the Citadel against them towards the end of the year. The Citadel. That's one of
those games that you play and you just go, really, are we going to play these cats? Um, y'all,
Florida played them last year. How does Citadel keep making its SCC rounds? But I will tell you this.
I will tell you this. Don't even get me started. That game, that decision changed college football
forever because an undefeated SCC team was never left out that national title game again. When
sometimes I thought there might have been, I thought there were teams better in one of the person
that's listening was with me that night. I thought the, I thought OU, and I don't want to say OU,
I thought OU was better than the LSU team. I was working that. Yeah. I thought OU was better than
the LSU team that played for the national title against Ohio State two years back. I think when
you beat the number one team on a, on a mutual side, that gets you in the national title game,
but it's never going to be right. It's never going to be fixed until we strap it up. We get
some top quit voting. We're the only sport that votes on a, on a champion. And I think that,
that kills it. But yeah, I want to hear feedback on this. I'm curious of why. And I don't want to
hear nobody email Texas. Because y'all were, y'all were down in San Diego to holiday balls,
so I don't want to hear Texas. And I called that by the way that year, if you remember. No,
matter of fact, no, they were the Rose Bowl. That's when Vince Young became a star in that deal.
Beat Michigan. Ah, yeah. So yeah, yeah, Texas, but they weren't national title. They were not in this,
this deal. But yeah, it's, it's, it's something that you've now took a 2004 season,
including your husband, trophy winner. And, yeah, never happened. Oh, it was,
it was Alpha son of a team because it never happened. I'm trying, I'm just trying to think,
oh, four, husband, I want to say that was Jason White. Oh, you, because Bush might have been
oh, five. But either, I don't know, he would have wanted no fourth. They're trying to strip him up.
Well, I don't care if, uh, who it is pretty much your 2004 season never happened. So it,
it could be Santa Claus could be the husband, trophy winner. It, it didn't happen. And I think
some people ought to have a hard time with that. I think the NCAA needs to do something. What,
what do you think it should be at a point that Lonnie's bringing up right now? Should it be a split
title? I see, I've never been a believer in the split national championship. I don't think you
give the schools a choice. I think to keep the records in place, I think to keep
your husband, your passing record, your bowl records, everything that is, I think you have to go,
we've got to do this because we can keep our records intact because right now, like I said,
it's the season that never happened. Yeah, it's good point. Let's go to your college football
club hanger of the week if you've got that ready to go. Well, that'll wrap up this part of sports.
You know, and I'll be honest, once again, a disclaimer, I do this every week. No, no bias.
I enjoy this because I really could do my research on some teams I wouldn't normally.
And like I say, the cliffhangers not up from one team, it's on this. The other end of this,
I've been biting and biting and biting my tongue. And I finally got to let one of these teams
really, really have it. The first one is, and I kind of tied this into my story, is Auburn.
On the way up or on the way up? On the way up. You know, when the outback bowl last year,
defeated Northwestern, great game. Northwestern was kind of surprising. They're kind of salty,
kind of salty. They're great head coach. I don't think he'll be there much longer. But
let me tell you, it looked funny seeing Chizek and not Tommy on Auburn sidelines. Yeah,
it was very weird not to see him there. Did have some losses. You know, quarterback Chris Todd was a
senior tied in a Tommy trot. Another great guy than the guy that seemed to play there forever,
been tade at running back. It was just a serviceable back that could lower his head and get you
third and one third and two, whatever. Key additions. Our returners, you know, Darren Bates,
safety, Auburn's always been known for that nasty hard nose SEC. It's September. It's Alabama.
It's muggy mosquito, but we're going to pop you all night long. They've always had that tight
mentality. Love SEC football. Mike Blank at defensive tackle. Another guy that's got NFL scouts
going nuts, Darren Adams, but they also added a guy that's not going to show up on a lot of your
boards here. Juco transfer quarterback Cameron Newton. You should know that name. Teebo's back up
at Florida Stola Lab Top. I remember that now. Stola Lab Top was dismissed from the team and ended
up at Blin junior college right down here in college station and was eligible for, you know,
passes deal took the appropriate clashes and was in CAA reinstated and floated with OU floated
with going back to Florida and SEC USC. I mean, South Carolina and the Southern California
and ended up at Auburn and I think he could be your starting quarterback week one. The schedule
very favorable for Auburn to really do something the SEC. They've got Clemson at home,
a team without CJ Spiller, not the same team. LSU at home. Another tough game that Auburn has
at their house. That's got ESPN Saturday night written all over it. I have to look at
schedule C who else is playing that day because you'd have to have game day. Yeah. And of course,
the iron bowl. Then you go, then you go to Tuscaloosa. That's a little bit different deal. You know,
I don't want to say national title. I don't think they've got the clientele just yet to get in
there with Alabama or even to get in there. But I think there's a couple of people whose days they
could run. Yeah, they could be really upset heavy. I'm going to say with Florida being a team that's
got some holes. I'm going to say maybe they might make appearance in the SEC championship game.
Oh, sorry. I just a lot of you're killing me, dude. The Raiders of the SEC offered.
Hey, they're scrappy. Well played, sir. Well scrappy. The autumn wind is a raider.
And the schedule, like I said, the schedule is very, very favorable for them to do a lot of stuff.
If you can you dodge Florida, Georgia's not much. I just they have a favorable schedule to really
do some stuff. All right. And so that's your on the way up. Let's go to the other side of the
coin. Yeah. Are we going about three and a half hours south west? Yeah, you know, I bit my tongue. I
bit my tongue and I bit my tongue. This is and this is bias's side. Let's say this. This is bias's side.
This is just I think it's reality check. And I when I read these key losses, you're going to be going
probably right. That is my good buddies. My most favorite fan base in the world. That's the
university of Texas. I think they're going to have a tough go of it this year. Man.
Well, everybody's got to rebuild at some point. And let's preface it with that. It's not a
reload. What you guys are dealing with is a you're rebuilding. You lost a lot of people this year
down there. Lost the course. We all know lost the BCS title game to Alabama. That's not all they
lost quarterback Colt McCoy and wide receiver Jordan Shipley. There's 85% of your offense. Yes, sir.
That's not a couple. That's not some junior quarterback that played one year and went pro and some
spare wide receiver. That was 85% of your offense gone and then Sergio Kindle, your defensive captain.
I don't know how you replaced that Oklahoma had questions going into last year. A lot of teams did.
Texas has a lot of questions. They can't run the ball. But they've also, I mean, their strength
is schedules pretty. Yeah. And then the key returners, if Tray Newton, he's like he's a D2 guy
playing at a D1 school. I just don't think he's that good. But a guy I do think is tied in Dan
Dan Buccner. I think he's very good and same thing with defensive end Sam Acho. And Texas is
going to sign about 16 to 15 guys at their spring or summer workouts. Texas is a draw.
They held a whole conference hostage for three months. Texas is a draw. I'm so glad we weren't
on the air at that point. Yeah. We know what we know what they are. They are a draw schedule.
I was actually shocked to see some meat on it. UCLA in Austin. Don't know what they're going to be.
But UCLA there, that's a, that's a name. October 2nd, like Hank Williams, Jr. said,
family tradition. We do it all again. Oklahoma. I think they both come in undefeated. I really
believe Texas's first few games are so weak. They can do that. They can come in October 2nd.
And you put you want that game both times. You have to. I think they have to. Yeah. It kind of
builds the momentum of that game. And then 10, 16, the one that gets dicey for the last time,
unless they meet again in Dallas. Nebraska. You've got Nebraska. And that's a fan base that has
a huge chip on their shoulder for the University of Texas. So prediction. Once again, I just,
it's they're replacing so much. I'm going to say holiday bowl. Cotton bowl. I don't see them in
a BCS game. There's just too many weapons to replace. There's just too many guys missing.
Too many household names. And if you know me, I don't put stock in anything to me. I mean, I'm just
saying what I think and you can blow me up. And that's fine. But that's, I just, there's just too
many. There's too many too many people to replace. And that is your college football cliffhanger.
Once again, any school you want, there's no buys. Help me out clubhouse podcast Yahoo.com. Or
you can put it up on the Facebook page. If you haven't joined, please join and follow us here
on you stream as well. There's a little link up there where you can just follow us and it'd be
part of part of our show as well. We now move to baseball. Not much going on in the standings
right now. So let's go ahead and I mean, it's getting a little dicey here as we're watching
from the AL East. But let's go ahead and run down the standings first. There's just a couple
of little stories to talk about. AL East, you know, Tampa ties New York last night. New York losing
again tonight. I just, that's a sick ball club right now. I don't know what, I know they've gone
through slumps last year and pulled up. They started so strong. And now everybody's just waiting
for them to win 100 games. Not going to happen. Once again, we've talked every week. Tampa's
scrappy. They like to ruin your day. Watch Tampa. Love it. Uh, the West. Hey, the ranger still
ate up on the A's. I mean, they're still there. That team's holding on there. And the central
once again, we said it'd be a yo, yo, I've bought the mix powder. I haven't put it in. I haven't
put it in the water to chill it with the ice to put it in the fridge yet. But I do have the mix.
It's in the pantry. I'm getting a little closer. They're getting closer. They're good ball club.
Yankees. This sounds nuts to say this. By the way, Chicago won up on Minnesota in the central.
The Yankees are six and a half up in the wild card over Boston. So they're also tied
into vision, but they played more games. So now they're leading. So they can make the playoffs
two different ways. Um, and the, and the hey, once again, there's that surprise. The braves
three up on your two time defending NL champs by three games. Um, you talk about a scrappy little
ball club. They took New York out behind the woodshed last evening. And we've got a friend that's
going to see them play. I'm incredibly jealous. I've made sure that he brings me back something
from Turner field. Um, and though San Diego, there's another team like Texas. They are holding on
man on the over the giants and the reds. I don't know what, Dusty Baker, you're your manager of the year.
Dusty Baker, Ron Washington. And I'm going to go, I'm going to say someone and Lonnie said this
in the chat room and I want to agree with him. I was looking at the Yankees like I look at Brett
Farve. I'm not counting Brett Farve retired until the trade deadline. I'm not counting the Yankees
out until October one. That's true. Man, I just, they're just, they look clunky. If there's, if
there's, if they're four games out and there's three games to go, then I'll count them out. They
just, they're one of the, like I told you two weeks ago, it's like Duke and college basketball.
You don't have to win, you don't have to win the conference. You just have to get to the dance.
Just get there. And there are team that, if they get there, they're very dangerous.
You know, trade deadline, you know, Lance Bartman's over there, you know, Texas,
adding, uh, can't, uh, can too. Hey, man, here we go. Everybody's getting ready for the big
stretch run and of course in the wild card, the cards two up. I mean, San Francisco's two up on
the cards. I got wild card and cardinals. But it's the wild cardinals. Yeah. But yeah, I mean,
in St. Louis's another team, I think they're, they're like Lonnie said with the Yankees. St. Louis,
they're kind of, and you know, Pullholz went first time below 300 in his career the other night.
So, is that a letterman curse? Cause he was on letterman last week.
Maybe, okay, maybe it's the, uh, we were just talking about the Yankees. A rod still stuck at 599.
I don't know what's, you know, he said some stuff. You know what's going to be crazy.
They're here in a week.
Cause he, you know what, hey, if you don't want to be the pitcher, that'll give it up for you.
Pay me 10 grand. I'll throw the ball. He can get enough of me. That's fine. You know,
this is his ballpark. I don't know if he doesn't play for the Rangers. He's, he's got this
many homeruns. That is a hitter's part. Oh, indeed. Indeed. Um, I don't, I think he hits it here.
I think he hits it in Texas. When is that next weekend? That is a two game midweek. No, no, next
week. So when's the Thursday midweek? You know, I'll be both out of town over the second game.
In and out. So it's next week. Cause we had talked about going to one of those games too.
But, um, yeah, he's still there. I mean, I don't know what, um, nobody, like you said,
nobody wants to be that footnote to history. And really honestly, he said last night in a,
in a post game interview, he just feels like he's not getting anything to hit right now.
They're pitching around him. And at times he's lunging at balls that he would usually not swing
at just to try to make contact. I didn't see that. Just let it come to you. Yeah. I mean,
I say that as a guy who doesn't play professional baseball, but I, I just think maybe he just
needs to just lay back on it and just it's going to happen. You're young enough. You're not ever
going to not ever hit another home. Yeah. I just, I need to see him finish with about 625.
This season for me to really get my baseball pants, home run pants going crazy and go, he'll pass,
he'll, he'll, he'll watch his on. I don't, I need him to be about 625, 630 into the year.
I don't know if he's got another. Yeah, that's 1415 homers. He's only got 16 right now. Yeah.
So I mean, last thing in baseball. And of course, you know, my braves bias. If I see a brave story,
I'm going to throw it out there Friday night, the braves are retiring. Tommy Glavins number 47.
Totally deserved. Oh, yeah. Totally deserved. Very excited for Tommy. And congratulations on that.
Like he's listening. Absolutely. Let's move on to basketball real quick, because it kind of ties
into baseball. I want to get back to that in just a minute with, with basketball, Mark Cuban.
It's been so much enough this right from what I've heard. He's buying up a lot of the creditor
debt so that he can become a creditor. And so now that kind of mucks the waters here. And I'm sorry,
again, we're going local. I apologize for those who do that around town. But is he just trying to
muck up the works here? Or is there something evil and sinister under the surface that maybe
maybe there's something to him wanting a piece of this deal? Well, you know, he tried to buy the
cubs. Everybody knows that was not approved by the, the major league baseball to do so. And
do you think he'd be approved of the Rangers? I know he'll put some money into it. And I think
that's what they have to get it done early. Because you got to have Josh Hamilton resign. I don't
want to get the auctions in less than 48 hours. Yeah. I mean, I think we'll know by probably
close of business tomorrow. If not for sure Thursday morning, what the heck's going on with a
fake game lead first place bankrupt baseball team? It's amazing. So we'll keep, we don't have a lot
just a lot of facts on that right now. Because he, you know, he's not returning. We go on the
air next week. We'll have news because we'll know who the other is. But let me tell you that he's
not returning any local media or any national media's emails or anything. Quick shout out,
Darren Duffy joining us in the chat room right now. Good old friend. Good to see you brother.
Lonnie says typical mafia move by marks. You know, you know, he's really, you know, he was all
man. I just got by there again the other day. So I just want to support Nolan. And I just
want to support Mr. Greenberg. All of a sudden, he took the black hat out of the closet and
threw it on him was kind of went, you know, Metallica seeking destroy talk thing. Love it, love cubes.
Love cubes. We could talk about we can make a show of him. Absolutely. And your other NBA note.
And we're, we're keeping an eye on ESPN news when it comes up serious talks between Shaquille O'Neal
and the Boston Celtics. Why? Because they're not old enough. I guess, I guess they need Yoda.
Well, did they let Rashid go? I don't know that's official yet. I know there was rumors that he
was going to retire. I don't know. Well, I hope they don't pay Shaq. Once again, I've said again
mid-level. Shaq's not a Shaq's not Shaq anymore. But, you know what, he's going to sell seats.
He's a Hall of Famer. Last thing in sports, we want to talk about just a quick NHL point.
Actually, we can go to because they're both coming from the same team. Marty Turko, now a
the gold tender for your defending Stanley Cup champions. How do you get rid of your goalie?
I think the guy just wanted too much money or it could be testing the water and having Turko.
I think you have to have two goalies in the NHL, my opinion. I think that could be a deal with
they're letting him kind of test the water a little bit and kind of see what's out there financially.
And just kind of see, hey, you know, I want to, I think that could be a little mini dynasty.
Turko, not bad. Let me tell you, his record last year is deceiving when your dodging shots,
their line was weak. The stars were weak. And I think that this year, you may see
old Marty Turko back like we remember him here in nationally as a star.
And the great Mike Modano expected on Thursday to sign with the hated Detroit Red Wings.
Can I say Red Wings and not sound like Elmer Fud? I can't, it's always Red Wings, whatever I say,
I can't. Red Wings.
Hope he wins three cups. Stars did him dirty. They did. They did him dirty.
I don't, you know, it's going to be tough to see. Phoenix would have been tough to swallow
and I'd dealt with it. San Jose would have been a tougher cell, but not Detroit, not Detroit.
Hey, it's the Yankees of hockey. People go there to get that first cup and or final cup.
Yeah, that's good. They didn't, my opinion. And once again, I'm no hockey expert. Don Cherry,
I am not loved on cherry. This isn't, this isn't hockey night here on the podcast.
Hockey, hockey night at the clubhouse. But I think they didn't dirty. In my opinion,
I think Mike should have picked his own time to go out. Yeah, they should have just let him
wouldn't be the ambassador of fun or whatever Brett Hall was there for a little while.
Let him be, look, look for the front office. I don't, and that's just me. But if he wants to play,
he's got the right. Well, he's supporting Willa Ford now because her career's, she wants to be
bad. Crickets. That's going to do it for the sports part of tonight's show. We're going to move
on to the entertainment tonight. We're going to not entertainment tonight. That's a show where the
entertainment portion this evening, movie news, we had a death today. And when I say this guy's
name, you're going to go, but stay with me. We lost today a man by the name of Tom Mankowitz.
You may think, you know what? Who's this cat? He's a screenwriter slash director. When I get,
when I run down his resume for you, it's going to, it's going to make more sense to you.
He wrote the man with a golden gun. And if you know me, I'm a huge James Bond fan. Also wrote
diamonds or forever. Also wrote live and let die. Also wrote the first two Superman films.
Superman, the movie and Superman 2, which after that, the whole franchise got weird anyway.
He was also a director. He directed the 1987 drag net film with Dan Acroid and Tom Hanks.
And he also directed several episodes of the TV show Heart to Heart.
Wasn't that one of your favorites back in the day to do a little heart to heart when you were
a young man? No, anything 80s. Okay. Was that a cop drama? It was a husband and wife cop drama.
Like the scarecrow and Mrs. King. No, that was more of a love interest.
Oh, okay. This was they were a husband and wife. So when Lonnie looks at Christa, it's heart to heart.
Hello, hello, hello. I'm here all week. Tip your waitress.
I'm just going to lay out on that. I can't.
Lonnie's also saying there's a death from the great movie Catty Shack need to look at that.
The go for done. The go for was animatronic.
But that means guys got skins on the wall. So to me, that's worth noticing. Also
interesting story from the LA Times today. Something that you've kind of had your eye on
a franchise. Robert Rodriguez, the great director, now in talks to direct the Deadpool movie.
Once again, Wolverine killed it. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I was secret or I think you could you could
kind of reboot that and kind of ignore origins and do it right. I mean, that's one thing that when
I we, you know, I was in the theater and I saw that and I said, man, they just killed any any
any future of a Deadpool movie. They made him look so ridiculous. Yeah, I was very, very
disappointed in that film. But this thing is still alive. It's still got a shelf life now.
I don't know if Ryan Reynolds is still attached or not. But I think Robert Rodriguez could do
something. Yeah, you can, you can make it happen. I like the character. I like the, if they do him,
you got to do where he kind of looks into the camera and kind of the fourth wall. They've got to do
that. If they're going to do it right, they got to do that. And I'm on board. I'd go see it. I like,
I like what Rodriguez brings a table that I'd go see it. I'm definitely interested in his new
film, machete in and when you can get an entire movie out of a fake trailer from another movie,
I've seen the full trailer. It looks to me. Steven Segalton, dude. Really? Steven Segalton,
everybody and their brothers in this movie didn't the low hand. I should play a nun in this deal.
This one. I will now they're confirmed or tonight. I thought she was involved in this somehow.
You get a separate laptop. So I can just look stuff up on that while I got everything running on
my PC here. Lastly, Dan Reslin played Dr. Beeper from Caddy Shack. That's who we also lost.
It was what Lonnie is saying now. This kid that we're about to talk about is Kryptonite to
Superman with me because I think he has no talent. But man, he's making a lot of money. Just in Beeper,
they're doing a biopic on this kid that's supposed to come out next spring and it's going to be in 3D.
So like a concert of him or somebody playing? No, he's playing himself in his own story from
what I've gathered from billboard.com. Like three mile? Eight mile. First of all, I just man,
you talk about striking while the iron's hot. That's all I can say about this. But can you blame me?
I mean, I'm not blaming the kid. Make your money. But do you think? God.
That is the music industry. Especially the tween, the tween, or the teen, or the kid music industry.
That's the money. They will crank up the fire on a dancing chicken out there on you and make money,
make money, make money, then you're dead. That Disney machine too, brother.
And once it gets a hold of you, it'll run for, it'll run what you think. Are we talking about him
two years from now? I hope not. But in the way a parent waning of the Jonas Brothers wave,
Lonnie good point, compared to leaf Garrett. That was before your time. Well, he was just made for
dancing though. That was his deal. He's, I'm glad I was not in mid-Sip when you did that. Yeah, man,
and he's not celebrity apprentice. Leaf Garrett signed on how many times it's like, how many times
do these people have to go into rehab? Life Garrett's been on every single celebrity rehab show
that's ever existed. He's still not clean. Maybe what? He's a drug addict. Gotta make him money.
You know, new release movies this week. One of one of something we talked about last week,
something I know you're excited about and you've already bought your tickets. Step up 3D
is in films and theaters this weekend. There's actually a mid-not showing at the legacy.
Yeah. No, that's not true. That would be genius. I 3D, what are you going to do? Especially when the
second one was called Step Up 2, the number 2, The Streets. So is this like, so you think you can
dance the movie? No, to me, it's more dirty dancing meets the Lombata movie, I guess. Lombata.
And it's the four bits like saying that Lombata. Like John LaSinda Lombardi. They should have
had him narrate one of those movies. That would have been awesome. I think your biggest release this
weekend is Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, The Rock, Samuel Jackson, Michael Keaton, in the other guys.
Her interesting story about this last week, they originally pitched the movie cop out to Warner Brothers.
And they wanted it, the budget to be 90 million, Will Warner Brothers boxed, kept the script,
and gave it to my personal leader, Kevin Smith, who made a get the blue right. That's all I'm
saying of cop out. They went across the street, took the other guys, and then they made it.
I'm going to see it at some point. I'm interested. Oh, I'm in. Anytime I think, and I've seen little
snippets of this in the trailer. Anytime you got the Dwayne and Samuel L. Jackson together,
it just looks tragic. It looks like it's supposed to be. Yeah. And Will Ferrell, I kind of go with
Chad on this, not a guy that can be chalkboard nails to me. See, to me, I used to be that way with him,
but in his post Saturday night live era, stepbrothers, great anchor man. Oh, okay. Yeah.
Talladega nights. Great. I have not seen Elf all the way through, but what I have seen. Great.
I can't fall to old school. Great. And you know, I mean, the guy makes good flicks. Can I go,
can I name some now? Land of the lost. A bad film. You know, that movie didn't even make its
production budget back world wide. Or you've seen that. I caught the day. I caught it on HBO.
I caught the tail. It was it was the curiosity and the cat is what that movie was for me.
And I watched it. It turned into background noise while I was sitting here in my office working
on some stuff. And I was just like, it was hard for me to believe that a that a movie could be
this great. And Lonnie says he plays the same character in every film. I, but it works for some.
It's like saying Chris Farley plays the same role in every film. And Tommy Boy. Gene. Yes. Black
she was tough to get through. Beverly Hills Ninja had its moments.
Had its moments, but then again, he was also taken from us to Zinja. Also in theaters this weekend,
a movie called The Disappearance of Alice Creed. Alice Creed played by a young lady by the name of
Gemma Atterton. You may not know the name, but she was in Clash of the Titan. She was also in a
little flick. I like to call Quantum of Solace. She plays a girl that gets kidnapped by a couple of
guys and in this prison type apartment and she fights back. I had screening tickets I couldn't go.
Also in theaters this weekend, the Oxford murders. This is Elijah Wood and John Hurt working
together as a professor or student combination working to solve murders using math of some form.
It seems kind of weird to me, but it's coming out this weekend. I got to throw it out there.
Another movie this weekend by a director who very much just upsets me and has upset me for about
12 years. The movie is called 12. It's about kids and drugs in New York and lives in her 20.
Directed by Joel Schumacher. If you, a lot of says the Oxford murders as numbers remade for film,
that's what I was thinking. When he said solving a murder with a man, I said I have seen that somewhere.
But the Schumacher deal, Schumacher killed the Batman franchise. But on a certain level, he gets
a pass because this is the guy that directed St. Almost Fire. But I'm kind of interested. Fitty
sense in this movie. That's all I got on that. I saw the trailer last week. Also in limited
release this week is a movie called Middlemen. We have an appointment tomorrow night or I would be
going to a screening of this. It is the story of how adult websites got started. This movie
Luke Wilson, not Owen Wilson. Luke Wilson is brother. Terry Cruz, which is the real muscle guy
from the old spice commercials. He's in this Giovanni Rebisi who you might remember from friends
playing Phoebe's brother. James Conn is in this thing. Kelsey Grammer plays a judge. Christopher
McDonald's in this Kevin Pollock's in this takes place in Texas. I saw this on a trailer show in.
Yeah, it looks interesting to me. Looks interesting. I'm glad to get that thing in theaters now before
this Facebook movie comes out in September. I'm glad we've got to deal where Luke Wilson's working
again and not for AT&T. It's valid point. Kelsey Grammer, of course, looks like he plays a
senator. He plays a judge. I don't know if it just does just a ton of movie, but money. I think
it'll do well. I really do. Now, given a couple of movies that are coming out next week, make your
money now. We will talk about those movies next week because there is a couple of huge movies
releasing next weekend, the weekend of August the 13th. Darren, you're right. Better than anything
can. I would probably would have done, but he was. I'm not sure which film line he's saying he
was not asked to be in. And I don't know what part of the conversation is internet horn. Wow.
Where is that that bus that just came over your house? Lonnie, that was I'm not driving that.
I just want you to know. Little music news this week. Your MTV video music award nominations
released this morning. Lady Gaga scores 13 of these nominees. She'll be Kanye West. She won't win
a one of them. Well, she jump up on stage and interrupt somebody else that does have one. She's
going to interrupt Kanye. Well, can her can her whatever outfit she's going to wear get her on the
stage that quick. You know what's funny? I mean, I don't know a whole lot about this young lady.
I know, you know, Alejandro and some of the music and that. She striking Wally Iron is hot.
Yeah, you know, she will. She's going to make a lot of money off this bit and I don't. She sold out
two straight nights at the American Airlines Center a couple weeks ago. I mean, that's two in a row.
That's what 18,000 people. Yeah, I mean, she's she's big right now and MTV's loving her to death. That's
almost half a cowboy stadium. She is very easy to look at. She's very pending on the video. Yeah,
but she's but when I'm when I'm meant by that was she makes good videos and MTV wants that when
they decide to show that they should have the VMAs taken away from them. If you don't show videos,
you can't have a video war. Yeah, as long as the situation's not on the screen. You know, he
you know the cast of that show. It's going to be involved in some way, shape, or form. And it's
going to again, kryptonite to Superman. That show is why the rest of the world hates America.
Yeah, snookie. Snookie in the the situation.
And we all have the real world to blame for all of this. All of that. But hey, in, in on, in on Gaga,
never done anything, never anything to bother. I'll always check out the VMAs because I like to see
some of the performances. I missed it. We had a paper view to watch last year when the whole Kanye
thing happened. And when I found out about that, I'm like, well, I pretty much don't need to watch
not just watch the clip tomorrow. But this year, not much going on. I think the Cowboys played
that night, but yeah, you know, MTV's changed so much through the years. It's, you know,
they need to not be MTV anyway. They seem to be TV just TV. I would love to get something,
get something, another channel and fuel kind of does this a little bit. The fuel channel will
show some videos, but it's always these artists you've never heard of. It's like MTV 2 used to be
very. And even MTV 2 is an MTV 2 anymore. It's, that's not even videos. You know, now you have to go
like with you versus I have the MTV hits channel MTV Jams, things of that nature. But not everybody
cares. I know that direct TV does not know. And those are those are the channels that show videos.
You know, and it's just sad that you have to have all these alternative channels to even see
videos you recognize. Exactly. Well, that's what like, sitting to switch to my, my walk, um,
CMT. CMT does, but you know, I CMT gets a pass with me. One word crossroads. Yeah, that's a phenomenal
series. But I mean, they've actually come to me. It's early morning. Maybe, maybe maybe
maybe later anyway. And then you might have some, some videos late at night, but then it's,
it's a world strict as parents. It's CMT. My big fat red neck. It's my big fat red neck
wedding. Now does GAC still show a lot of videos? That's all they show. They have no original
programming. So GAC. And they're actually know CMT's in New York. GAC's actually Nashville based.
But CMT's are Viacom, isn't it? Yes, sir. They're in the same, when they answer the phones,
there they go. CMT MTV. When you call them that. Interesting. They are actually in New York City.
Lonnie loves the singing bee. That's. Hey, you know, that little girl. She's, she was on Reba,
which I hate. I don't hate Reba Magatari. The show, remember, she was her neighbor. I never
watched the show, but I think we're talking about two different. No, no, we're talking about the
same girl that host is that spelling bee. There's a host on the singing bee singing bee. I thought it
was one of those old in sync kids. No, I think he did it with her and they cut him. They, they,
she's the bride and dunkelman of the singing bee. It's it's a karaoke turn off the music, turn
off the words, fill in the blank. Kind of like, what's that? Don't forget the lyrics. Which is what,
which is just, that's Wayne Brady. Wayne Brady has, I'm talking about one of the kids from
in sync hosted this. Oh, or is it Nicholas Shade? Did this thing see me? But yeah, I just, to me,
I think they should rename that don't forget the lyrics give Rob $100,000 right now. Because I think
I would do pretty well. The spelling bee. Hey, hey, Lonnie, if you're in, I'm in, bud. I mean, well,
also, also announced recently, I read on billboard.com today. There is a new Michael Jackson album expected
by the end of the year with material that was found in one of his vaults. The music communities
kind of divided on this. I, I don't know what to think. I really don't. Elvis did it for years.
Yeah, but was there a lot of it unreleased stuff? Or was it just a lot of recycle?
A few unreleased, but a lot of it was recycled stuff. But I mean, this is what you're going to get
with Michael Jackson. You're going to have a limb making greatest hits after greatest hits,
after greatest hits. And they're going to mill back at all. Greatest hits. Greatest hits. I'm okay
with that. It's this previously. It's not Latoya singing. Lonnie, be nice. It's actually Janet.
But in one thing that they interviewed, I believe it was will I am from the Black Eyed Peas. And he said
the thing about Michael was he was such a perfectionist that he wouldn't let it go out unless it was
perfect. And I would think that this material would be very raw and very unfinished. Because even if
you have the anniversary edition of Thriller, which I have, I don't have the one that's got all the
remixes, I've got the one that's just just the album with some interviews. There's a couple of
tracks on there that were that were almost on the album, but didn't make it. But you don't even
get the whole song. You get about 60 seconds of it. Yeah. So I just, I mean, this is what it's
going to be. I mean, don't release this thing if it's if it's that's that's the sound in the whole
thing. If it's bubbles making appearance on this. No, I would think not. It's I don't know, at least
if it's masterable, then master it. If it's not, don't do it. Yeah, that sounds like it was
recorded in a fishbowl. That sounds like that's a tool of the Joe Jackson. Oh, gosh. That guy is
he just did a VH1 reality series waiting to happen this guy. He's loaded. Oh, new music releases
today. We start with a pretty big big deal. The black crows have a brand new double CD set out
today called Croology. Again, it's two discs. It's all acoustic. It's all of their all of their songs
that they love to play the original. I know the Robinson's are back together. They have been for a
while. I don't know about anybody else being arranged, but as long as you got the Robinson's,
that's what you need. That is the black crows has he now that he bathed and shaved for this album
because last time I was all him. I was neither confirmed nor did I was very disappointed in their
unplugged last time. Yeah, I didn't they're good. I want to say I think I'm gravitated hard to
handle. Of course, remedy. Of course, hard to handle is a cover originally done by Oh, just
reading, but I like your body. Redmond is one of my favorite songs by them. That second album,
Southern Harmony Musical Companions. Great. Great material. Great band in. It's also going to be
followed by a tour that's called Say Good Bye to the Bad Guy. Love it. I saw that. I love this.
Has to be included because you love that line. Yeah, say good night to the bad guy. And because
they're going to take about they say they're going to take at least a two-year hiatus after this tour.
Why not? Which how long was the last one? Yeah, I mean, why not? Great. And what's the great
band? Is that is that and they put a schedule out for that yet? I have not seen tour dates yet.
In. I think if they came to Dallas, it would probably be a house of blue show. I don't know
that maybe super pages.com. It wouldn't be American Airlines. They're at the what's that ballroom
that used to be gillies. The palladium. The palladium. They played there recently. Yes, they have.
They're recently me and gillies. I did another show. Oh, I don't know if statute of limitations
is that about some of your stories from that place. Buck Cherry. Brand new album out today called
all night long. It's crazy bee on this. No, the thing about that song, 19 was released in like,
oh, six. Boy, it blew up. And it blew up in oh, eight. And they had another album last year that
had maybe one single on it. And I think they're trying to keep the momentum going. I like the crazy
bee song. I like to follow up. I'm sorry. Yeah, I got way overplayed.
Lonnie says Buck Cherry is very good live. Okay. Didn't they weren't they on the
crew tour a couple years ago? Yes. This last one was the last one. Okay. They were in the video for
a Saint of Los Angeles. We have not seen that video. I have to go there. Yeah, they're actually,
I can't say that band is the lead singer guy. That's real skinny and I'll tie it up. He's in there.
We have a reissue this week of an album that came out in the 60s, I believe, called Clint Eastwood
sings Cowboy favorites. I put this on here specifically for you. Clint Eastwood could sing the
alphabet. And I'm in. He can do it in. He can do it in the man with no name voice. He can do it in
dirty Harry voice in anything Clint Eastwood does. Greatness. He can act. He can direct and I guess
he can sing. Somebody gave him an old saying the theme from raw hot. Yeah, that was his name in raw
hot sir. Oh man. That'd be one rowdy eight rowdy eight you are correct sir. That is absolutely
correct. One thing I've always loved about Clint Eastwood. He's got that big box set of all of his
movies 30 years 30 flicks. And in the interview, he says I didn't necessarily make pictures that I
thought everybody else would like. I made pictures that I liked. Yeah. Hey, I mean, there's some.
There's there's some that I know, you know, they're but for the most part, his body will works
first dollar. That guy made a Western in the 90s and made work. And that's the last people say
tombstone. I tombstone was real stylish. I love tombstone. Tombstone can't hold a candle to
unforgiv it. That's why it won best picture. Yeah, I mean, yeah, you couldn't do that now.
Could you make a challenge any director make a Western in 2010 11.
Would you count Desperado?
Those in the 90s. Yeah, I can't count.
I guess so. Too many cars to be a Western in that movie. No rowdy eights was not the name of
the cowboys mascot. Thank you for that one. That's just rowdy. What was I'm trying to think here
310 to you. That's a real. That's a real. But I wouldn't count that because it's a
real. Exactly. I'm an original Western haven't. Now they did do that one that I can't even forget.
I mean, somebody of Richard Dreyfus was in it not too long ago. Apollusa. That was not
Dreyfus. That was. Who was that? Eagle Mortensen. Could have been. And to fall.
To fall. And you know what? Apollusa. Not a bad flick. I've never sought. Never sought. It's not
great. But it's not bad. Yeah, never sought. It's kind of it's as far as a Western goes.
It's very laid back. I need me a shoot him up. Also another reissue this week. A remaster with
some extra is some extra material. Billy idols rebel. Yeah. In great album. Great album. It's Billy.
Walkers performing with a cane. Yeah, I mean, still getting it done. Still getting it done. I mean,
I always his body of work. Best song. And I know there's another gentleman who just moved back
to our Fairburg that would agree to me. The ultimate Billy Saddle songs. Flash for fantasy.
See, I'm a cradle of love guy. From the soundtrack of the fabulous Ford Fairland.
You mentioned the Ford Fairland. Something like that. Great soundtrack. And that was one that
could have been on the list last week, but it wasn't. Yeah. Because it's a great movie.
And a great film. Great film. Great soundtrack. That's a whole different list. But yeah,
in like, like. Best for fantasy. Great song. Oh, yeah. Like, I just had a face alive. Do you like
today's stories about that song? I can't tell either. Last one of note this week.
Queens of the Stone Age. With a new album. I guess the Them Cricket Vultures project has
has expired. Don't know just a whole heck of a lot about them. Like what I've heard started
by Dave Grohl. Yeah. Their lead singers are great. A great singer. He and the guitarists were in
them. Cricket Vultures with Dave Grohl and the great John Paul Jones. Yeah. Yeah.
Open range 2003. Lonnie says. Open range was a decent flick. That's right. Yeah. I mean, I've
taken. Hey, I'm gonna tell you what. Good bringing that up. Costner was a bad A in that deal.
If you've ever seen open. I've seen open. That is a great. You're right. Man. I can't
look. I forgot that. That was a great film. Right on, man. I love having. I love having the
silent partner in this deal. Lonnie just throwing stuff out there. I like that. I like this.
I like. Yeah. Oh, my dad is wanting a password to chat. I don't know what what that means.
I don't. I think maybe he has to register as a user. Okay. I don't know. Yeah. That could. And
that could be what it is. He has to register as a user. New on DVD and blew right today.
A movie I'm very excited to see. I'm sorry that I missed it in theaters.
Kickass out. Really? It looks too stupid. It's basically taking the concept of superheroes and
kind of putting them in the real world of his kids go. Why can't this work? And it's based on
a graphic novel. I'm a fan. I'm going to rent it as soon as I can. Heroes season four release
today or as I call it the mercy killing that show. If you watch the first season of heroes,
the first season of heroes was amazing. Like I didn't watch it the first season. I bought
the DVDs because people were. The first season was really, really good.
After that, it just fell off the planet. And it was terrible. Seasons two, three, and four were
horrific, horrific. And this last season, they were supposed to do a two hour movie to wrap
everything out. I hope they don't because that thing was sinking so far. Yeah, you were in really,
really, really, really involved in that. All of a sudden it just died. The first season was so
great. And then it just fell off after that. Diary of a wimpy kid. My son's leader. Have you seen that?
I have not my, my wife and son both have other books. We've got like five of them.
Oh, this is a series of books. I remember watching about this. Ramona, Quimby. Yes.
Yes, yes, yes. Which is a film coming out or came out last week. Same, same, same, same deal.
Oh, say, okay. All right. Books. It's a story. It's a kid. He's kind of a, he's a wimp. It's about
bullies. They address a lot of things that are elementary. This is something that can be
franchised as in. Diary of a wimpy kid. I heard it's been green lot and really. So we're,
we're, we're doing that. Also out today, a movie called The Ghost Writer. That made off our ITR.
That wasn't the O PBS kid show where the ghost pin. Goosebumps. That's Nickelodeon. I
didn't know what you were going to make from. But Ghost Writer, Pierce Brosnan plays a politician
of some form. You and McGregor has been off. It's been hired to be the ghost writer of his
autobiography and things get a little weird because certain things come to light that this guy
doesn't want to. But the previous two or three ghost writers have gone missing or wound up dead
and it's kind of a thriller kind of a deal. I might catch you on HBO. I don't know. Yeah.
We have the Blu-ray release of Escape from New York this week. Did that do anything for you?
Ruined by a sequel. Yeah. I mean, it's Kurt Russell in on him. And who was the mayor of New York
in the prison of New York? I don't know. We'll be one Isaac Hayes, sir. Oh, yeah. On him,
for sure. Yeah. Great movie. Great movie. I'd like to see the Blu-ray transfer. Again,
I talked about I was watching the Blu-ray of the Godfather on Sunday. Yeah. That transfer is
gorgeous. They did a great job on that. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, Escape from L.A.
Listen, yeah. I was saying I was terrible. The sequel to that.
25th anniversary of the Breakfast Club. Welcome, Dad. Thanks for getting in. We appreciate
you being on the chat board. And you know what? This is a movie. And you know, I am 25. I was
four. So give me give me my dude. I don't know a lot about it. But hey, when I saw it as a
my my she hates when I mention her on the show. The lady I live with that I bought a ring for
instead in front of a preacher. She likes this movie. It's a great film. It's one of the seminal
films of my generation. I enjoy this movie very much reading a book about it. Yeah. I like it. It's
it. I think that movie defines in my opinion a generation. It does. And it's it's part of that
brat pack phenomenon. I recurrently I'm reading a book called You Couldn't Ignore Me If You
Tried, which is a line from that film. And it's the impact of John Hughes on a generation. And
how the whole thing happened. I would like to own this one. Just because there's extra stuff.
And they're doing a panel in New York next month for the 25th anniversary with the cast. And since
Hughes is no longer with us being moderated by my leader, Kevin Smith. Really? It's a two-night
panel. Remember when Peter married her own family guy. He woke up and was married to Somali Ring
Wald. And Lois was married to choir. They were they were they were just we're doing the dance.
Dad says that you are referring to his great daughter-in-law. That's true. She says when I mention
her own on the show. Really? She's shy. My wife doesn't mind so much as long as it's in a flattering
light. Yeah. She's shy. But your wife's a good woman. You got a good thing going on over there
out there in the great city of Royce. Also a movie out this week. It's the movie called
a prophet. If you are somebody like me that watches shows like the ultimate trailer show or
nothing but trailers, you've seen this trailer. It's a foreign film about it's very God. It's like
the Godfather set in a prison. It's a guy learns how to be that guy. And it's interesting. I just
subtitles for two hours can get to me. What's that tree's this in again?
It's a French film. Also a WrestleMania 26 Blu-ray. I guess it's not a best-by-exclusive anymore.
So you can get that at any of your local retailers now when it was first released. They're
officially show some of it on the NBC. An hour. And it's like it's almost like a big long music
video. Yeah. So I read about it. I think the only match that that's in its entirety is Sean
and the taker. And on Blu-ray, the Bond movie that never was. Never say never again. It's being
released on Blu-ray this week. Man, that was bad. If you don't know the story of that,
it's basically a remake of Thunderball. Sean Connery actually bought the rights to the story.
And it's called never say never again because he said he would never play James Bond again and
blah, blah, blah. He went to a different studio because it's not an MGM UA thing and it's pretty bad.
It's pretty bad. Well, I'm always I'm just want to see a new one.
We'll have to we have to find out who's going to own the franchise with MGM folding.
And you know, we just got an instant message and it's exactly perfect that you just sent this
dad because we want to talk about the sponsor of the show again right now. At John Crow, a hot
August deal, all 2009's are on sale. 2009 Duramax HD 2500 white with black on star, which is a
great service. Great service. Bluetooth for 45, 915 with seven grand in rebates. Wow. Nothing
wrong with that. Again, John Crow, GMC are very first sponsor of the show. I think you might have
a couple things there to talk about with them as well. Yeah, also another deal they're doing there.
Like I said, the terrain. I know there's people all over the road asking about a terrain. They're
going to get more in. I know my dad. I was there Saturday. This thing's selling fashion. They can
put them on the line. Yeah, he gets in about four or five week. They turn on that that quick. Wow.
I haven't seen one of these. And one little car. It's nice. If you're a fan of a sports car type
thing, they also have a Nissan. Remember the old 350z? Yes, sir. Well, you know, they did come out
with those again. 2004 350z coupe. 17 995. Nothing wrong with that. Gorgeous car. My mom, he's trying to
sell it. My mom wants to buy it. But like we said, beginning of the of the show, it's a short drive.
It's an hour away. Not that big of at the most. Go the first of month. Hey, go to get you a turkey
leg. Get you a sausage on a stick. Buy some senti and go out and buy a car. I mean, while you're
there, first Monday, big deal. While you're there, get a great deal on a car. Yeah. And then,
you know, and go go see Randy or ask for big can Rawls. And trust me, I was there Saturday. They'll
get you taken care of. Absolutely. And we appreciate them being a sponsor of the show too.
We now move into the meat and potatoes. We start. We always start with sports. We go into
entertainment. And now we get into the one thing that brings all of us together and makes the world
a better place. It is time for professional wrestling talk. We do this at the end of the show
every week. We are now at the 126 mark for those of you playing the home game.
First thing I want to talk about it's a it's it's wrestling related. We found out on Friday,
Hogan's ex wife is marrying her 21 year old boyfriend. They're getting married on the yacht she
bought and named it Alimony. Is she still a story? And that's bad. And that was the question I was
going to ask you. Is this the I I remember. And that's the last season of Hogan those best when she
looked at him and said, you need to get a job because I have a lifestyle that I'm accustomed to.
That's right. At that point, done. She happened to me. She happened to marry the eldest of wrestling.
Yes, she did. And and took him for just about every. And now, you know, did we ever think we'd see
Hogan hawking big screens and stuff at Rena. I mean, did we ever think that we would we would get to
that point with him? Absolutely not. Yeah, no. And then I always thought that she was an odd
choice for him, but also she dealt she stood by him through a lot. Oh, yeah, she probably deserve
her money. I mean, I guess. To me, I just we had to mention it because it's wrestling related.
Now let's talk about starting last Tuesday night when we went off the air and XT went on the air.
Got a couple of bits on this I want to talk about. We're just going to say real quick.
Eli Cottonwood gets voted off. Does Nexus take the castoffs or do we just keep them where they are?
I think you keep them where they are. I mean, this thing because I've heard rumors. I'm like, I'm
like, keep them the six. Keep them where they are. Yeah, this thing gets this leave them where they
are. I really don't want this Nexus thing that I enjoy very much. I don't want to get clunky.
Don't get too big. You know, the NWO at 30 members at one point. Good Lord.
But there's a couple of guys on this thing that right now are standouts.
The first one to me is McGillicutty. His dad was Mr. Perfect. And his grandfather was Larry.
He's got he's great. He's intense on the mic. He's he's got a great and he's undefeated on the show.
I guess because they're pushing him pretty hard. I don't know that he wins it, but he's a
guy that they've got to get signed. He's great in the ring. I wouldn't mind Nexus taking the good
ones. I don't think they need to take every single castoff. Take the good ones.
Also, Riley, this guy, I don't like his gimmick. He's like the guy that bullied you in high school.
He's the varsity villain. But the guy's got great mic skills. If they could repackage him,
he's good in the ring. I hate to say anybody that's being proto-jaded by the Miz is great,
but the guy's good. Yeah, that's one thing about this business that's changed through the years.
I don't know if it's in ring talent. I think that it is stick. It's stick work.
There's guys that I think are great and like a Shelton Benjamin just could work the stick.
And that's so much a part of the business now that if you can't work the stick,
you're done. Real quick on the post, all you Texas fans, I put some Facebook
are that are blowing up these water burgers. That's real orange. Not that fake burn orange color,
y'all made up. Okay. I forgot. Yeah. Quit selling out the water burgers. That's not orange.
You all made that up. I'm glad I didn't want to order burger for dinner tonight. I'm
think I'll be able to get anything. You've wear orange to water burger today. You get a free
water burger or something. That's not in a date. No, it's a 60th anniversary or something. Yeah,
hey, great. I do want to ask this about NXT. Could we get away with the pros shedding their gimmicks
for the show? And the example to me is like, cool. They've got a guy. It's the first time,
I'm great. I've only had the two seasons, but we've got two divas that are coaching a guy
in Caval who's amazing in the ring. I would love to see him do a program with Evan
Bourne because to me, he's the only guy that could keep up with him move for move. But could we get
it? Could we get away with these pros shedding their gimmicks and really being mentors to these guys?
Or is that asking too much? I think you... Yeah, I think that might be asking too much. I think
that's Vince wants to keep it that way. Because it seems like everybody else almost does that,
but them. Yeah. Because when you have the little interview segments and whatnot,
you know, I don't know. They do also have a guy by the name of Percy Watkins. Showtime Percy Watkins.
I've been kind of bare with him since they'll get go, but his finisher is one of the most insane
things I've ever seen. Standing leap 180 into a splash. Let that sink in for a minute.
Man, there's some amazing athletes on that show that Vince has to
do Vince get your future. I agree with this 100%. Sean's getting old. Trips old. The takers old.
Vince has got to have a farm system and it's great if it starts there. He also got FCW.
Yeah, well that's where they came from. It's a great Florida championship wrestling.
Let's move on now to TNA on Thursday night. We now have addressed the ECW thing. They've realized
they can't use the name, although Tommy did his ECW pounding on the chest thing in his match.
They are now called the EV 2.0. I'm assuming the EV stands for extreme violence?
I don't know how you know you put earrings and lipstick on a pig. Still a pig. That's what this is.
Yeah, and we should call him the extremist. At least that sounds kind of cool.
But they've signed for their pay-per-view this Sunday, which again,
are we trying to duplicate one nightstand? This failed.
Signed Sabu and two cold Scorpio. And if you're a WWE person, you know two cold
Scorpio as a character named Flash Bunk. But at one.
Oh Flash, you're so funky. That's how his theme started.
Right. Wrestler in the ECW.
Great. Two cold Scorpio was a good gimmick.
I liked him done. I'm just cringing at the fact of New Jack showing up to this deal.
Have has he been announced?
Dixie tweeted earlier today that there will be surprises.
Is this a one pay-per-view deal?
It can't go on.
Is she toying with a brand separation here and trying to do her version of this?
I don't think it can last very long in my opinion.
These guys are old.
Well, you really only won to me that can Devon jump off of a balcony through a table anymore?
No. Can Seb and then I don't want to jump your point here.
But we're bringing in Sabu.
Taz. I mean, that's Taz.
I guarantee you that was a Taz move.
It's like it's like some of these guys are called this guy. He needs money.
Called this guy. He needs money. Called and it's what you're getting into.
And I bet Hogan and Bishoff are in the back cringing right now because this fails.
Well, they need to be cringing because they're a bit failing too.
This fails. You know what? There's like five.
You tell you what, you know what happens. Vince buys it.
I mean, yeah, I hate to say that.
If that happens, just shut the business down.
Yeah, I mean, shut the business down because nobody ever will be able to do anything.
But the deal is there's nobody over there.
I think there's five, maybe six guys that you go that Vince could actually.
I think he'd like another shot at Kennedy.
I don't know.
Of course, Jeff already.
If he can stay clean, Jeff already.
I agree. I don't want to see these old guys hurting themselves.
Either you're absolutely right, sir.
Eric Young.
Remember when he first came in, he was showtime, Eric Young.
And he was afraid of his own pyro.
Apparently on their international show,
he took a bump in a match with suicide, which I don't know why he's still around,
but whatever.
Where now he's doing like a
Perry Saturn moppy bit where he's just, he's crazy, Eric Young.
And he brings a mannequin to the ring and a tag match.
And that's who's going to have his back with Orlando Jordan,
whose bit is weird to begin with.
But now all of a sudden, Orlando Jordan's normal almost.
It's a very strange deal.
To me for Eric Young, this is a step backwards.
I mean, you were in, you were doing tag team matches with Kevin Nash.
You know, you were in world elite, which was a great faction for as long as you let it run,
because you had him.
You had the British invasion.
You had DeVari, who was really coming into his own.
Now he's in a ring of honor.
Because he's, you know, Eric Young's Canadian,
so he can be a part of world elite or whatever they wanted to be.
I think it's a step backwards for him.
And now all of a sudden, Orlando Jordan's normal.
And he's not like, freaky covering himself in milking lotion and has a boy and a girl come
with him to the ring. I don't.
Well, Lonnie thought brought up Al Snow.
Al Snow's book in there.
He's a road agent.
He's already there.
Yeah.
As it never, never.
You know what the highlight of his life was when he was late Cassidy.
But he was the other rockers.
And then he went to, then he went to ECW and did the
got hit bit and with the mannequin head and all that.
But I just wonder are are bitch off and Hogan?
Are we already grasping at straws and we're not even nine months into this thing?
I mean, I think I think them leaving Monday nights was a huge mistake.
Absolutely.
You either commit to the bit and fail or you don't go to begin with.
There's just nothing over there for me to tune into and watch.
There's just nothing over there.
Somebody's driving by my house.
My office isn't very well soundproofed.
Fortune is now complete.
It is AJ Styles.
It is Kazarian.
It is beer money.
Let's leave the four fingers out of this, please.
Man, once again, anytime things get bad.
Let's fire up old Rick Flair.
Leave the you can be fortune.
If even if you want instead of FOR if you want the number four,
I'll roll with it.
But you leave the four fingers out of this.
That is a symbol of something you will never have again.
You will never see again.
No, you'll never.
It upsets me greatly.
Yeah, I don't know why their
Rick is just soiling on his on any any legacy.
Anything attached to him to me.
He is soling anything he's done in this business.
Yeah, it's terrible.
And it started with him signing with TNA to begin with.
And it's getting worse.
Well, actually started with him signing with that Hogan Australian tour.
That's true.
Your global title speaking of AJ Styles.
AJ is now your global champion.
It is now being renamed the TV title.
In which Vince would do it about time.
Yeah, which Vince would do it.
I don't know why Vince didn't bring it over when he bought the company in.
I think I think the TV title was bad.
And we've talked about this a thousand times.
These belts aren't catapult belts anymore.
You're either world champion or your mid card.
Indeed.
The TV belts, your intercontinental belts, your US titles.
I like those mid card belts that a guy can take it, defend it, run with it.
I've always seen the TV title as an upper echelon title.
Because the TV title means you're going to see that thing.
When if you can't get to a live event, you're going to see that thing.
Exactly.
And I've always respected the TV belt.
I love the WCW TV belt.
I remember they had one in the mid 80s.
It had a bunch of holograms with, with,
with.
Ultimate warrior work.
Network logos on it and generally used for like a month.
Because they got in trouble with the networks.
Who was that?
This is the NWA.
Yeah, that'd be cool.
That'd be have a yeah, because I have like you have like the ABC.
I was like, you're not even on ABC, but I'll roll with it.
ROH has a world as a TV title now.
Vince, hello, if you're listening.
There's somebody who knows somebody, who knows somebody.
TV title.
Yeah, I'm on board with it.
Let's see.
I dug and found it in the trash can.
Maybe, maybe send, but hey, you know what?
You know who'd be a great person to bring that belt back?
Santino.
Santino's going through an old.
I would like it to be the television champion.
Yeah, he's back there digging through a prop box.
Let's say he pulls out Rick Flair's robe and let's say it.
Do we have the dug in meter?
Yeah, just maybe even a two by four.
Maybe something real wills off.
And then he in the dust, he pulls out the TV title.
I just by the way, if that's airs, I'll sue anybody that does it.
Can we copyright that as a program?
Something else I noticed when they when fortune was in the ring.
Rick's wearing what looks like the wedding ring.
Somebody have a line on this because to my knowledge,
he hadn't been married to fourth time yet.
Rick, when it comes to women, Rick has screwed up a two car funeral man.
Yes, he will.
I mean, God, go away.
I never thought I'd say that.
I need Rick at Hall of Fame events.
Maybe some introduction on in demand.
And that's it.
Yeah, don't need Rick Flair in the ring anymore.
And again, WWE Classics on demand is awesome.
Love it.
Yeah, so.
And I'm telling you, I've said this a hundred times.
I'm probably going to say it a hundred more.
We just finished the third of the best of five series.
Beer money versus the Motor City machine guns.
This one was in a cage, but it wasn't an escape the cage.
It was a match in a cage.
Kind of a hell in the cell, I guess, without the roof.
These two are the best tag teams in the business right now.
Which one does vent steal?
He'd probably have to steal beer money because I don't think
machine guns could go.
But the fourth match comes up Thursday night.
On impact, it will be ultimate X.
And if you don't know what ultimate X is,
basically what they do is they take the
attached to each ring post is a scaffold.
That scaffold, there's two,
basically zip lines that form an X across the ring.
And then there's a big large red X that hangs in the middle.
You have to get that X one way or another.
If you've ever seen an ultimate X match,
they're amazing to watch.
I'm assuming that we're saving
match five for whatever this thing is going to be next week,
which was supposed to be what hard justice was.
And now that it's hardcore justice,
they're doing all those matches the Thursday before on impact.
Again, go check out these two teams.
They're great to watch together.
And at the end of the show, Raven turned on Tommy Dreamer.
Show of hands.
Yeah, show of hands.
Who was surprised by that?
No big deal.
I just, I've never been a fan of Scotty.
I've never been a fan of Raven.
I just, it's kind of like he starts to get something going
and he has to screw it up.
Yeah, he's, he's a weirdo.
He has to screw up whatever he's got going.
That's, that's good for him.
It's, he's not that great in the ring,
unless he's hitting somebody with a stop sign.
I think he relies too much on Stevie Richards for hardcore hack.
There.
That's a style.
It just stopped me down completely.
Something about, we'll talk a little bit about smack down here.
See him punk.
I saw this coming four years ago.
He looks, he's losing a lot of mass, man.
And I don't know if it's because of the arm injury
that he hasn't been able to work out as hard.
But he just, this past Friday night, he looked a lot smaller.
Well, I think one thing with punk,
quit, quit pushing him his main event guy's not.
He's not, no, I agree with you.
He was, he was great for ECW.
Yeah, he was great.
He was worth their first review.
And then I thought him, I've all the people in the world
to take the belt off edge.
He put it on punk.
To me, it soiled the title.
I did, I didn't like that.
And why did we have him
if you've been with Frenchie?
Big show, really?
I don't see him putting the go to sleep on that big son of a gun.
Now he does.
I gotta give credit for that.
But I don't think you can.
So we were told originally from, from sources inside the organization
that this
cane thing
that it was really going to be him that caused the undertaker
to be in this vegetative state was going to turn into a casket match at Somerslam.
Cain says on Friday night that
taker, quote unquote, came around and told him that it was Ray that put him in this state.
So now it's Ray Cain Somerslam casket match.
Once again, why are we pushing Ray?
I don't know.
I think Cain's earned it.
I agree that Cain's earned it.
Cain earned it.
Cain earned a little bit longer than a one week or one night run.
In my opinion, Cain earned it.
Ray, I hate to say this.
If Ray Mysterio still with us, I don't know if Ray ever wins the belt.
Excuse me.
If it takers still.
No, no, no, no.
If Eddie's still with us, we've had that, we've had that discussion too.
No, I think the WrestleMania that Eddie went into or had died was a year, six months.
Very, very quickly.
It was about eight months because he won the belt.
No, he won the belt at no way out in February if you remember correctly.
And then he passed away that November because it was the day of Survivor Series.
So I mean, I don't know.
I won't tell you.
I don't see Ray unless he undertaker interferes and puts Cain in a freaking
casket, maybe.
I just, man, I just, it doesn't make me want to watch Summer Slam anymore.
I'm still going to watch it.
Hopefully I'll be able to find a place in Tampa that will carry it.
But I just don't know.
It's a mess.
It's not down to me, it's a mess.
It was better than Raw last night.
Yeah, I'm going to say I'm going to say that straight up.
Raw was terrible last night and I don't know if it was because they
did back-to-back Raw's in San Antonio.
So you had four hours of Raw last week.
It seemed like the crowd wasn't as into it.
It seemed like the guys that were on the show were just kind of worn out.
Yeah.
Well, my deal with Raw right now,
and this is something that we've talked about.
We talked about it with the ladies last week.
I'm tired of Raw is Cena.
Cena is war.
I'm, I'm, they've got a fresh in that bit up.
They have to.
It's, it's dying.
Cena, can they though?
Can they?
Like I told you, when we were in the, in the prep stages,
I said, you know, I'd like for Vince to maybe go to
Cena and go take, you know, take six months off.
Go to the movie.
Completely off of television.
I'm not talking little pop-ins.
I'm talking where he's gone out of the business.
How long has H been out now?
It's been a while.
He needed that.
We'll see if your theory comes true.
We've from Sunday.
I'm so much.
I'm, I'm, I'm, I don't tell you what,
this 12-man tag, I'm losing interest rapidly.
Yeah, I'm, yeah.
Well, because you've, you've now what you've done, it's so
NWO, you're making this nexus thing unbeatable.
They're tearing apart,
established stars, edge, Jericho.
I don't, I don't mind the unbeatable thing.
It's the other side of it that's annoying me.
Yeah, for sure.
We have to have the in fighting because these guys can't get along.
Yeah, yeah, I just, but it's got to get better man.
That, that, last night,
How long have we been saying that?
The past two weeks has been hard to watch, in my opinion.
And they're, they're overseas right now,
which is why you had a pre-tap for all last night.
They're in Sweden or something of it's,
didn't you learn from the volcano?
No, are these makeup shows?
Um, I don't know.
They may be because it's kind of weird how in,
as you're warming up to a major,
yeah, I think it's a pre-tap for all.
I think it's some makeup shows.
Malena returned last night.
If she's not with M&M, no, no, I, I like her.
She's, she's got a little thickness to her,
which I like now.
She looks great.
I just think we've gotten rid of so many other divas
that aren't as injury prone.
It worries me.
How long, how long does this one last now?
Does she make it to survivor series before she's injured again?
I don't know, she's one of those that'll take,
she'll take a risk on you if she can.
Yeah, I like her.
I just, you know,
the diva division of me is horrible right now.
It's nothing compared to the knockouts division.
TNA owns the women's division right now.
You got a generic in that, baby.
That's what brother,
but she's so lucky in the ring.
She's like her daddy.
She's gorgeous.
Don't get me wrong.
She is absolutely drop dead gorgeous,
but she's terrible in the ring.
Especially when you're, when you're paired up with people like
velvet sky, Madison rain,
and you're in a feud with Angela and the love,
those are three of the best women's wrestlers on the
planet right now.
Yeah, I hope
wish her luck.
Yeah, I wonder what I'm going to do well.
The Bella Twins.
Are we just, are we just,
put them with Cody Rhodes?
Are we just pimping them out to every guest host now?
Is that the bit?
Twins.
I just, remember that chorus line?
And the twins.
Lord, wow!
Although the little bit last night with with Will Farrell saying,
yeah, you know, I just kind of average, you know,
that she's trying to pawn them off on Markey Mark,
and they're not, they don't want any part of Markey Mark.
And it's, I just think we need to do something with them.
Cody Rhodes would be a good, that would be...
The dashing.
Dashing Cody Rhodes.
Funny looking in the mirror thing.
Funny.
And now he's got vignettes where he's teaching people
how to groom properly.
And, and on him.
Good luck to that kid.
You know what, I've always said he,
I always thought the Dustin kind of got Dusty's style.
But Cody wound up with the Lisp,
which I thought was weird.
Yeah, he's great.
I like him.
That's going to wrap up this part of the show,
but we always end the wrestling portion of the show
with this week and wrestling,
which Cody always handles for us each and every week
with some great stuff.
What do you got for us this week?
Let's get in that time machine and go back
to Great American Bash 1986,
Greensboro, North Carolina.
Horseman Country Brother.
And speaking of Cody,
his daddy,
the great Dusty Rhodes defeated Rick Flair
in a steel cage for the NWA World Heavyweight title.
This marked the American Dream's third
and final NWA title right.
He hasn't had a title run.
Wow, I didn't even think about that.
See, and I wrote that as I read that.
I was like, you know,
Dusty's a guy that's good.
I just don't seem as world champ.
He could carry a company though.
He can work the stick.
And for a big man, he could work the ring.
Yeah, I just, I didn't look at him and go world champ.
So he hadn't had a, yeah, I guess not.
He has a title range since 80, yeah, 86.
Now, I know he never carried Vince's belt
because they put him in polka dots.
So that's sad.
Yeah, dead.
The American Dream.
I need that in the background right now, buddy.
And every time that brings up,
when we can have better production value,
I might work to work that.
Make it back crack, you knees freeze, you live a quiver.
Woo!
Hey, I'm with Kings and Queens.
Slept in Alley's and they don't pork and beans, baby.
He heard.
1984, we come back.
A lot of this certain federation here
is this was kind of their hot times
because they did huge major pay-per-views.
1984, I will get this right.
The gentleman, Chris Adams.
Got it right this week.
Turns heel, he was a big face in WCCW and turned heel.
And see, that was your wheelhouse
because I always knew him as a heel.
Yeah, he turned heel on in a match against Kevin Von Erich
while they were tagging against Jake the Snake Roberts
in Geno Hernandez at the world famous Dallas Sportatorium
and this led to the forming of the dynamic duo tag team.
Okay.
I think this was a huge step in the career of Chris Adams.
I think it gave him right around it.
I thought he was an incredible heel.
I thought he was a great as a heel.
I loved him heel.
Now, WCCW.
Was he a little too,
because you and I have watched some of the footage.
We actually watched an entire episode of World Class
a couple of weeks ago.
Was he too patronizing as a face?
Was that the problem?
Because that was kind of the feeling I got at that.
Well, because there was only, if you were a face,
you were never going to be a bigger face than the boys
in the family.
Indeed.
And Chris had to break out of that role
because he was, there was a lot of heels.
You had the free burns.
You had Jimmy go.
But it almost seems like that's the only way
you could get a push if you were a heel.
Because you didn't feed with the Von Erichs
and there you go.
Faces couldn't feed main events.
So you had a lot of guys, you know,
devastation incorporated that stable.
A lot of those guys went heel because that was the only way
they could draw a lot of money and get main event type status.
Dynamic duo, man, great.
The great Lincoln town car that they rolled in
according to Lonnie here.
Oh, yeah, man, I tell you that was,
that actually broke the windshield.
Broke ever, that gun went in that thing
as they put carry in the back of it.
That's when them and the freebirds got together
and they were,
God, they've got to go in the whole face.
They were two stepping across Texas.
That was a Lincoln continental from.
What was that dodge?
Remember that world class set?
They wore over here.
Wait, look at it.
They weren't the beautiful Denton Texas, you know,
I put in, in on cheesy 80s wrestling vignette.
So sticking with WCCW, this is a sad day.
This is a matter of fact, the day of 1989.
WCCW changes its name to USWA.
What is it this day in 89?
89 is when the banner of the old world class
championship wrestling name went away.
And of course, Fritz wrote it into a bit, Eric Embry.
If you remember that name, Eric Embry, anybody.
By this time, the Von Erichs were in it, kind of.
Not really.
Fritz was in it by name.
Kevin Carey had already went on to the WWE by this point.
And wrote it into a storyline where Eric Embry
defeated a devastation incorporated member of Tojo Yamana.
And he was, in fact, Eric Embry managed by the great Percy
Pringle III now, Paul Barer, indeed.
And the fact of the matter was the, when the match was over,
Percy got up and tore down the WCCW banner
from the top of the support of Troyal, and that was not written.
And that was not, was that the beginning of the end?
Yes, the problem was Jerry Jarrett is the one that bought
that Jeff Staddy, Jeff Staddy.
And what happened, the truth of the matter is Jerry Jarrett
could not afford to buy the copyright to WCCW and keep the name.
Fritz wanted too much money and charged them through the nose
with rent and support Troyal.
That, that, that changed Texas wrestling forever because you had
mid card, you made event guys, Usman King Parsons, Chris Adams,
Kevin Von Erich, the whole devastation incorporated guys
that were pushed to mid card status as he pushed Tennessee
wrestlers. That's where they were based.
Yeah, pretty much TNA.
That was the USWA, that was the, yeah, that's what it became.
And Jeff Jarrett, Jerry Lawler, Sid Vicious, Tennessee wrestlers
were being pushed in that federation.
And really, honestly, that was the beginning of the Texas
independent wrestling scene.
Gary Hart tried to get something fired up in like 93
called world class two failed.
And now you see a big vacant patch, a field over there
that used to be more Troyal.
Should have been landmark one more one more one more.
OK, 1997 very odd for a summer slam to be this early in the
month. August 2nd East Rutherford, New Jersey, summer slam
97 heart and soul, if you remember this, last summer slam to
use the old orange and blue ring logo, which I love that.
Oh, I love it too.
Love that. Bring that back.
Well, they're changing that they're changing the WWE logo.
Looks cool. I like that.
I haven't seen it. I've heard about it.
The attitude air logo. I've never cared for that.
But I like that world blocky.
Yeah, I like that. I remember seeing it had it on that shirt.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
And, um, but yeah, this was a let this was when the attitude
air was just in the in the baby steps, um, Sean Michaels
here, here he goes again.
Um, I'm going to beat you down the WWE debut of Michael Cole.
Was that really that was that evening?
And what year was this?
97. As a backstage guy, this was the debut of my first on screen of
Michael Cole.
I knew I was ruined the day.
And of course, in the main event, I mentioned Sean Michael.
Sean turned heel in that.
Sean had actually not wrestled for quite a while, but was asked to be
special guest referee in that title match.
Sean hits taker with the chair.
Sean's Brett spits in Sean's face.
It marked Brett's fifth and final.
And that was a little, a little point of contention.
Yeah, that wouldn't a spit because according on Brett's side of it,
he didn't, he had more saliva in his mouth than he thought he did.
But from Sean's point, we're watching ESPN news.
Apparently some Cardinals teammates have a big fight during practice today,
because that's what they need.
From Sean's aspect, he kind of took that real sideways.
They can Brett did it on purpose.
I mean, because there's always three sides to every story his, his, his,
his and the truth is in there somewhere.
And this led to a match, if you remember, at ground zero, unstable name that was
Sean and the undertaker first time ever that ended up being a total mess,
because heels interfered, faces interfered, and it was just a mess.
And this led to the forming of DX and, of course, the first hill in the cell,
bad blood.
Hey, man, all the matches I got to go with the original being the best.
Yeah, well, especially matches like that.
If you're not the first, you're never going to measure.
Yeah, but that's got that, that was the, the breaking point that went August,
September, of course, bad blood being in October.
Vince Halloween, have it has to be your October pay-per-view.
And on that note, that ends this week in wrestling history.
Outstanding great job, sir.
And you also have the list this week, a lot of great, a lot of epic.
This week, sir, congratulations on that.
For all first-time listeners or even in the chat rooms, this is a pendulum.
And it swings back and forth, back and forth.
This week, it swung to me.
And how many people we got in there right now?
Right now, we have three people on, and there's been 11 total real.
Yeah, that's good.
I'll take double digits.
And everybody hears by the same age group, I don't think there's teenagers in there.
Top eight, top 10, 80s cartoon rip offs.
Now, let's, and we need to qualify this because when you told me what you were doing,
I wasn't exactly sure until I read the list.
Now, let me make sure that I, I understand this correctly.
What these are, these are cartoons that were taken from other properties,
such as movies, games, movies, games, TV, other regular, even in one case,
an actual television show that was turned in.
So that's what we're going for, and we're only keeping it within the 80s.
Yeah, all the 80s, one of them went into the 90s, but two of them, but not by much.
And also, once again, if you're in the rooms and you know any,
any facts, any back stories on any of these, we want them.
I see you're smiling already.
So somebody, what do you got?
Lonnie just, just hit one, but I'm not going to tell him which one it was.
Number 10, number 10.
Once again, before I say it, did this guy need a back story?
And I've got, I've got a point of contention on this.
We'll go ahead and tell it and then the adventures of Pac-Man that ran from 82 to 84.
Here's the thing about the adventures of Pac-Man.
The adventures of Pac-Man came from another show that was called Saturday Supercade.
And Lonnie hit on one here in the chat room.
Cubert was part of that.
It was three or four different video games.
Donkey Kong was actually a show.
It was before any of it and all Donkey Kong, whatever say, was Donkey Kong.
That's all he ever said.
That's it. That was his bit.
That was his bit, but it was Pac-Man, Cubert, Donkey Kong, and there was one other.
It was a rotating four.
And then Pac-Man got so popular that Pac-Man got its own show.
And then you had Mrs. Pac-Man named Pepper.
Yep.
I, you know, as far as video games go,
prefer Mrs. Pac-Man to the original.
But I just don't know if Pac-Man needed a, a strike while they're on time, brother.
A number nine.
Let me see the Justin Bieber of the 80s.
Pac-Man fever.
Hey, Buckner and Garcia in the iPod, sir.
A number nine garbage pale.
See, 87.
I didn't know they did a animated series.
I know there was a movie, there was a live action movie.
Well, it was in riff.
It's, it only aired for a short time in the U.S.
But supposedly it ran a full two seasons over in the U.K.
Did it really?
Yeah, lots of stickers collected on myself.
Remember, Adam Baum is hit with, very, very strange.
I don't know if you could get away with those today.
Weird.
Who came up with that?
Somebody who hated cabbage patch kids in that much.
God, that was a weird deal.
Number eight, one that's very close to,
and Lonnie almost got this one.
He was close.
Star Wars Ewoks.
Yeah, 1885 and I enjoyed it.
And that was a companion show because sometimes you'd have an Ewoks episode
and sometimes you'd have a droids episode.
The Ewok movie didn't mind.
Didn't they do an Ewok Christmas?
No, that was the Star Wars Christmas special.
There we go.
We don't talk about that.
Now, the main Ewok, if you have seen the ads for the new family guy,
Jedi, it's called it's a trap.
The Ewok is being played by the bear from the Cleveland show.
Yeah, was Corey Feldman an Ewok?
Oh, no, and I know Willow, the little midget that played.
Yeah, yeah, I don't think Corey Feldman said that I saw.
Okay, maybe I didn't come.
Bad Star Wars memory Ewoks.
I tried not to think about it.
That, that, that, that animated series was pretty terrible.
Number seven, Super Mario Brothers Super Show 89 to 91.
Better than the movie.
And who played Mario on that show in the movie?
And in the television.
That would be Captain Lou Albandon, sir, but yeah, the movie was horrible.
The show Bob Hopkins has Hoscons.
Has Hoscons Bob Hoscons.
Who played Louis?
And what was the bit?
They explain I never actually I like Wasamo played Luigi in the movie.
I saw the movie so long ago.
What was the?
Cooper was he a King Cooper?
That was Dennis Hopper.
Yeah.
What a big budget film.
Yeah, it was pretty big and it flopped horribly.
And it's a bad movie.
I mean, keep it animated.
Don't go live action because the animated wasn't great.
Yeah, just it wasn't bad.
It was just kind of there.
And I mean, the animated series did okay.
But I think it's a, I think it's a stinker.
Number six, which they got three years out of this.
Well, hey, look at the time frame 8386.
Mr. T and a guilty.
Absolutely guilty.
I plead guilt.
I watch this show because when I think Mr. T, I think a gymnastics team.
Yeah, and that spun off into the cereal.
Hey, he made a lot of money from clubber laying to superstar.
Pretty much.
Then of course, the summer to WrestleMania one.
I mean, T was everywhere to T was everyone and two.
Yeah, one and two was in one two was the Piper.
Yeah, he talks about his.
Yeah, T was everywhere.
Number five, I was debating to put this in.
But I thought it had a whole Kogan rock and wrestling.
85 to 87 again guilty.
Oh, everybody.
Well, I did, you know, I didn't realize none of the real wrestlers
did any voices on that.
Nope. None of them.
I thought that was so weird when I was doing my research on that.
Yeah, oh, they were working so much.
They didn't have time to do the voiceover.
Um, I actually ran until 89, but was not made new.
Till eight, nine, eight, seven.
You got anything on in the room right now?
Looks like Lonnie's name and Heathcliff, not on the list.
Uh, strawberry shortcake, but see, to me, strawberry shortcake,
that I don't know if that ripped off something else because weren't the dolls
made to code to coincide with the show, I believe the next one he's named.
I'm not going to say because that one does come up on the list as well.
The dukes 1983.
How did this get past me?
Because I never remembered there being a dukes of hazard cartoon.
Um, was, you know, and even the research on it was real sketchy.
It, you know, what's funny is when coin vans left came on.
When coin vans came on the deal, it was during the, that was the, the strike 83s
when Tom Wolf had, and they got a full season.
When Tom Wolf had in John Schneider left the dukes of hazard.
They left contract for race NASCAR.
That was a full season.
Well, on the cartoon, they left and coin vans actually came into the cartoon
for a few episodes and when John Schneider and Tom Wolf had came back,
they actually came back on the cartoon.
That is genius.
Every original cash member did their voice.
Really?
Yep.
Every single cash member.
Um, and to me, it was just the way the still, I mean, I saw a little bit of it on
YouTube.
It was dukes of hazard in a cartoon form.
I didn't think that they just rip off actual episodes original stories,
flash didn't talk.
It wasn't really anything real cheesy about it.
It just did that need a cartoon show.
Again, striking while they are in time.
Now this one, number three, I remember what I'm guilty.
Guilty here too.
Adventures of the gummy bears.
Who did that?
Do you remember who did that?
It was Disney.
That was a Disney property.
89 to 91.
Was that coinciding with the candy?
The candy was pretty popular at that point.
I don't remember the show having much to do with the candy.
Oh, good one, Lonnie.
Police Academy did have a cartoon and that's going to get addressed here in a minute
because there's something that coincides with that and the one he put above it,
which is actually on the list that I always thought was very strange.
But gummy bears, it was a decent show.
I mean, it was that Disney machine, man.
That was a weird.
I remember seeing that.
I thought it ran longer than that.
89 to 91.
I'm going to watch this show and just play it along with the duck tails and then tail span
and the darkening duck.
Never got into any of the duck chefs.
Never was my wheel.
Got a big friend of Scrooge McDuck.
I like Scrooge McDuck.
I like Huey Dewey and Louis.
I just, it never was my bit.
I was, but at this point, I'm animaniacs and tiny tunes and tests.
Yeah.
Those were my two animated shows at this point when you get into late late 80s or early 90s.
Number two, Rambo and the forces of freedom.
This is one that Lonnie had in the show.
I've got a quick note on this.
1986 light first rated R property together.
And that was going to be my point is that and police academy.
You make those into cartoons that are aimed at kids, but they're from rated R properties.
I thought that was weird.
The Rambo was the first one that was a R property that got a green let TV show.
Ran one season 86.
Do you remember he always had the same montage when he suited up putting on the bandana,
putting the knife in the deal?
It was always the same.
It was like watching he man become he man, like Prince Adam, which originally there was no
Prince Adam.
That was created for the show.
But whenever he'd go into Rambo mode, he always had the same motif of foot.
And it was just they just took that one scene and just stuck it right before the climax
of every episode.
But I always thought that was weird.
Yeah.
Um, did Lonnie get I saw some some things being nailed there.
He got number one.
Okay.
He did get number one.
You're ready.
Well played, sir.
Rubik's the amazing cube 83 to 84.
And you know, you know what the problem was.
It's hope people year to figure out the show.
Because it yeah, yeah.
You got one in.
I'm getting.
Yeah, you know, Salt, you know, once again, researched this had to be a boring cartoon.
I just didn't see a whole lot going on.
I remember it's existence every episode what Rubik's good does.
Rubik's goes to the west.
Rubik solves a mystery.
Rubik's goes to swim.
It was very almost like Nick Juno.
This is what I need drops.
Yeah.
This is like very Nick Jr.
Like almost like you would show a door of the explorer and it's yeah, you know, Rubik's
goes to the jungle like real wheels off.
And it's a talking cube.
Lonnie says it still comes on one of the Latin networks.
They still show it.
Hmm.
Wow.
Wow.
I think it might be more entertaining in Spanish.
It's got to be because what I saw was just was just horrible.
I know, I know for a fact, there were some.
That of course Lonnie's name and I left off.
Even some modern day that that's a lot of adventures.
Yeah, I mean, there's even they're still doing it.
The bits have never gotten old, but you know, but, but you know what also has
to meet gone by the wayside is the Saturday morning cartoon.
Oh, for sure.
I know Muppet babies.
I left that off.
I was debating that one.
It was.
I actually watched that show.
You know, who played the nanny on that show?
Who was the voice?
Was it the mom from leave it to be?
No, sir.
The great Betty White really was the adult that you know, she was like Charlie Brown
teacher.
Yeah, although you could understand her, you never saw her.
Socks and shoes and maybe the bottom of the drawer and a hand every.
Yeah, vaguely, yeah, I liked Muppet babies.
Now, it was no tiny tunes.
I thought it was.
But I almost I almost put that on there, but didn't really.
But that was a big Saturday morning cartoon was the Muppet babies.
But I see I remember as a kid.
And I'm not a morning person, but when I was a kid, Saturday morning, if you
weren't, if you weren't up before the national anthem played, you were already
behind.
Yeah.
And you sat there with your bowl of cereal and your pajamas and you watch cartoons.
I look at it at a guide now on a Saturday morning.
There's nothing out because you got Cartoon Network.
You've got Nickelodeon.
You've got these full scale kids networks that run 24, 7365.
Cartoon Network has become MTV.
If you watch Cartoon Network now, they're doing a lot of live action shows and
things of its nature.
So you're, they're losing and they take all their good cartoons and they move
them over to Boomerang because Boomerang is like your classic cartoon network.
Yeah.
And which a not not nothing wrong with the classic cartoon.
Although I do like Adult Swim and we are getting a new season of robot
chicken.
I don't know when I heard that from San Diego, but I'm a name of splits in.
That wasn't really a cartoon.
That was live action filmed at
Six Flags over Texas.
Was it really the banana splits?
The opening montage with them on all the rides and all that film that Six Flags
over Texas.
Yeah, wow.
Well, we got one quick announcement to wrap up the show next week.
Well, this is the big one that we talked about last week.
Next week, we are going to be doing an extra edition of the show as we prepare
for Summer Slam.
We are going to do a summer slam extravaganza next week.
I'm not going to guarantee you it's going to run to 15.
But we are going to preview Summer Slam.
We're going to get you ready for that.
You'll know what it's up when it's up.
We're not going to say what it's going to be done because we're stealthy like that.
Yeah.
And it's not just this summer slam.
We're going to talk about past summer slams, probably throw a list into it.
Probably won't do a wrestling history on summer.
We could we could do a summer slam only.
I have no problem with that.
But going to be real with love, love, love, love to have a lot of feedback on this.
Love it.
Also, if I may say we're in the workings of doing a little college football pre show.
Looking forward to that.
Doing that, going to write something once again, we will we will do that live.
Yeah, that's going to be a live show.
It's going to be a live show.
