Yes, we shall Let us start with corrections Well you're racking them up lately This is just because I can't read That's all this is I'm gonna tiger slump We did report last week on this show That very soon all UFC fights will be five rounds Regardless of title or not That is not correct Title Bouts And main events Will be five rounds I read the The email wrong So there is that Anything else that you heard You know I listened last week show Fun, very funny show, real loose Cody likes the Yankees I like the Yankees So post-pone tonight Is you tonight We're also watching some classic nitro right now You don't want to interrupt that But that's what I've got So if you're saying that we're clean Let's roll Let us literally Yep, with a little something I like to call this Yes this win We kick off as we try to Every week on the clubhouse with Robin Cody Little NASCAR talk As we rely from Michigan International Motor Speedway In the afternoon and saw Denny Hamlin FedEx car, newer driver Do you remember you probably know who he was He was the one that went into the final race In Miami that was up eight points On Jimmy Johnson Okay last year So this isn't a guy who's new to the game Or new winning races Haven't heard a lot out of Denny Denny's a second half race Guy He doesn't really get a strong start But he finishes really strong in points That did Their French onion dip very very good So I'm endorsing that Yeah and the main thing at Michigan Was like we saw at Charlotte With Dylan Hart Jr.
running out of gas On the final lap This was another race where drivers are trying to consume As much fuel as possible As it came down late in the race A lot of people were lap short Two lap shorts Not exactly a race That's known for a lot of drama So I didn't expect a lot of bump And banging type racing A lot of single file stuff Fuel's always an issue at Michigan There's not really that drafting There's not really that groove That other race cars get into And go very very very fast But your top ten finishers were It's followed Danny Hamlin As I mentioned earlier In the Toyota The FedEx Toyota finishes first Followed by Matt Kinsett Kyle Busch, Paul Minard, another top five finish. Carl Edwards. But then the fuel issue So Carl Edwards finishes five Plus backflips Ryan Newman, Tony Stewart Clint Boyer, Mark Martin, and Brian Vickers Roger top ten Dylan Hart Jr.
notable finishes 20th So not a good day for Jr. This was the site of Dylan Hart Jr.'s last cup win What's the slumpet now? 110?
Wow, we're getting crazy With that one, and you know maybe that's I don't know. There's guys in NASCAR That some guys win a lot of races And some guys just flat out don't So your sprint cup standings Are as follows, Carl Edwards now Has it grown the lead To 20 points ahead of Kevin Harvick He's Dell Jr. still in third And points though.
So not too terribly bad 27 back of the lead Or followed by Kyle Busch, Jimmy Johnson, Matt Kinsett, Kurt Busch Ryan Newman, Denny Hamlin, Clint Boyer, Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon at number 12 Like I've said, every week on this show The 12th spot in the sprint cup standings Is the last guy who gets in They only take the top 12 And then they reset the points, right? Yes, Greg Biffle, Mark Martin, and one Pablo Montoya You killed my father to protect his eye Those guys are within a few points But right now Jeff Gordon would be in the sprint cup Chase And then things get a little tricky as we go off to Infinium, Infinium Raceway Out in the wine country In California Man, if you know anything about NASCAR Throw everything you know about racing At the window Sometimes you even change your driver Infinium Raceway for people don't know how new the sport is a road course Now what does that mean? It's not going to be turn left, turn left, turn left You're going to have curves, you're going to have SS corners A little bit different I hate this type of racing But you're also a NASCAR purist Somebody like me, I love the road course I think it shows you more skill as a driver I would love to do away with this completely But the only two or three of these two You only do one time known as Sears Point At one time was what this race was Tony Stewart's guy that does really Where well here Jimmy Johnson Jeff Gordon does very well here Kurt Busch last year This is a race I think Junior, you're only not well here Needs to finish top 10 or I think he's in trouble For points Now we're starting to get into that point Because you know how For those of you that know Cody You know he didn't want to talk about standings and baseball till June You're now in that time with NASCAR Of things are going to start to get close to crunch time Yes, I would like to see Junior at least get top 10 here at At Infinium We'll see like I said it's not really his His race It's not really his deal I'm going to go on a limb and I think finally I think Tony Stewart filing wins a race Sunday at Infinium Raceway I want to pick Tony Stewart to win That is also on TNT now forget we're not in the We're getting really TNT now We'll have six straight races So no ESPN no Fox We're now in the TNT part of the schedule So that is going to be three o'clock Eastern two o'clock central So that's NASCAR Already you are listening to the Clubhouse with Robin Cody Live each and every Tuesday night right here on Youstream and every once in a while We'll do something we'll get out there on You have which we did 48 hours ago Yes, thank you everybody that came out to Fox down and Richardson Texas at 75 And Campbell great turnout for We'll talk about that later Capital punishment Not a great card but hey we still had fun We made the best of it It was a lot of fun thank you everybody who came out today And the next time we'll be out there is for Money in the bank which I believe is July the 17th Yes, I did use a map in my head This lot of fun this is I don't Know if it needs its own pay-per-view But I like the concept Try some a little different this time try the Sliders very much enjoyed those That had the ranch hamburger How that work out for you Pepper Jack cheese, fried jalapenos, ranch Very good Very good trouble for me If you like the spicy the ranch hamburger is a way to go out Fox and Halden and Richardson for sure Shall we go to the movies sir I think we shall sir Okay over there Okay We are your one stop shop for all things Wrestling Pop culture and sports we're going to Get into a little bit of that pop culture stuff With movie news Congratulations to the people behind the hangover part two As it becomes the biggest R-rated comedy of all time All time $488.7 million in three weeks It's predecessor the hangover without a number Made 467 and a half and it's entire run You know I just I think I spoiled myself On the first or got it spoiled for me Because I was expecting this great epic comedy See I'm right I made it I didn't run out of the building for saying this I just I just don't know if that movie was that great I'm with you I thought it was I thought it was Funny it had some funny moments But as far as a laugh out loud roll on the floor comedy I've seen the bachelor the bachelor party go Arrive movie before I'd seen that before But you know what it's making money That's all it matters you know i mean So there's that Also we talked a couple of weeks ago on this very show About the tattoo issue That the home video release What they may have had to have altered the tattoo That has been settled out of court For an undisclosed I'm sure The the face tattoo stays in for the home video release So there's that that's cool Then there's this And I want I'm gonna bring I'm gonna bring the music down Just a little bit here because I want to you do a little I'm gonna put this in park for a minute Green Lantern 52.7 million dollars which a lot of people Are calling A disappointment When your budget's a hundred million dollars It isn't a disappointment When your budget's a hundred and fifty million dollars It isn't a disappointment You're a third of the way there I have predicted that this movie will fall out of the top ten Not this weekend but next weekend Because there's a lot of big releases coming out I went and saw this Thursday at midnight Thank you to Richard and Sarah for inviting me to join them For the midnight showing of green lantern And Thursday night slash Friday morning I'll be honest with you Not that bad Enjoyed it Better than Thor not as good as X-Men first class As I had took in three movies in a theatre last week Which is an absolute rarity for me I just It looked bad from the get go Are you have any plans to see this thing?

I just saw it on Twitter just now That was about three o'clock this afternoon So the regulations are against former North Carolina assistant coach John Blake Unethical conduct for providing false And misleading information To the NCAA enforcement staff And to the institution And for failure to cooperate with an investigation Marketed athletic abilities of student athletes To an agent and received Outside income that he did not report To the institution And then former for a wily, unethical conduct for refusing to provide information to an enforcement staff and providing extra benefits to student athletes and the form of revelle and parking expenses and tundering. And apparently some of that may be related to you, failure by the institution to adequately monitor the conduct of Chris Hawkins.
Huh, I don't know what Chris got with your man. You know, this is one of those things. That thing got out of control.
John Blake has former cowboy offensive line. Former OU head coach. I knew that.
Spent some time with Nebraska. North Carolina is not really a football powerhouse, so they may fall in the sword for this. So there is that.
We will get back in the movie talk as we do like to we see things that break. We like to let you know right here on the clubhouse with Robin Cody. You have the back.
Also, we find out this week, as you may or may not have remembered before, transformers, the second one got underway. That Megan Fox. Decide she's going to compare director Michael Bay to Hitler about a week later.
Originally, Michael Bay was like, oh, she's just playing blah, blah, blah. About a week later, she is then dismissed from the second Transformers film. We find out this week, Michael Bay has admitted that he was told under no certain terms to fire her by one Steven Spielberg.
Now, you may say to yourself, what does Spielberg really have to do with this? Dreamworks, which is a company that he co-owns, was one of the distributing partners for the Transformers franchise. That is why that happened.
If you know anything about Steven Spielberg, this is the guy that directed Schindler's list. He takes that kind of thing very, very, very seriously as really a lot of people should. And that's not, that's never something you really want to make light of, especially in the public to a reporter.
So that's why that happened. We go on to movie new releases this week. If you are someone who has a child, first of all, gentlemen of that sort, happy belated Father's Day to you.
We hope you had a great Father's Day. I'll talk to some of our listeners that are Father's at the remote on Sunday. But if you want to know where your kids are this weekend, picks our returns to your local Synaplex Cars 2.
Because there were so many unanswered questions from the Kerfers Cars film, I guess. Lightning McQueen and the boys going overseas. The first one was okay.
I wouldn't put it toy story. The first, the first. I enjoyed it.
I wouldn't own it. That was my thing. The first movie was, was okay.
I don't think, yeah, I wouldn't own it. And I don't know if it, I don't know necessarily if it needed a sequel to it. So I always thought that was weird too.
Also this week, Cameron Diaz, Justin Timberlake, Jason Siegel, Phyllis from the office, as Bad Teacher. By the way, in case I did not say it, Rotten Tomatoes has Cars 2 at 86% right now. Okay.
So there is that. Also, Bad Teacher. Bad Teacher, I'm going to let you guess what Bad Teacher sits at right now on Rotten Tomatoes, sir.
I'd say it's a 50-50 movie. It's exactly at 50% right now. Well played.
Yeah. I don't know. This is basically the story of a teacher who doesn't really care about teaching.
But she finds out that there is a bonus involved for the state testing. And so she decided she wants money for a chest augmentation to retract one Justin Timberlake. And then here we go.
It looks funny. I'm not sure I'd pay ten bucks to see it in a theater. That might be when I catch on DVD maybe later on.
Your other big relief. I actually wouldn't call this a big relief. 75% on Rotten Tomatoes for a movie called Conan O'Brien can't stop.
This is a documentary about late-night talk show host Conan O'Brien who goes on a combination stand-up and musical tour. I'm told he's a heck of a guitar player. This is a documentary about that tour.
So I would mind checking it out. I just don't know if he's funny. I think he's funny.
He used to ride for Saturday Night Live in the good days. He was a writer back then. And you'll see him in sketches every once in a while if you watch classic Saturday Night Live.
DVD and Blu-ray new releases this week. The recent Liam Neeson vehicle called Unknown where he gets kidnapped and then they don't know who he is. Hence unknown.
I think he just goes out on top of taking. Don't do another action film after taking. Because taking to me was just that good.
But 72% on Rotten Tomatoes. Also this week, Cedar Rapids at 85% on Rotten Tomatoes. This would be a rental for me.
This may be a rental this weekend for me. Ed Helms plays a small town insurance salesman that goes into the business for the first time. I've heard excellent things about it, especially from our good friend, Devon Pike, over at RealGeniuses.com.
His show is on Thursday nights on JustinTV. So go to our EELGeniuses.com for that. Also one that we thought maybe was going to be in your household's wheelhouse turned out not to be.
As Diary of a Wimpy Kids sequel, Roderick Rules releases and 47% on Rotten Tomatoes. Nothing on that? You know, the books became a juggernaut.
How many books are there? I would say there's more than 10. Do they still have the book fair at school?
Oh yeah. I don't know if it's not as prevalent or as financially. Cheaper and we don't ever buy a book for a buck.
You know, not any more. It's give me 20 bucks for the book fair. Really?
Yeah, I don't know if... Before or after he does the laundry folded in the yard now. Yeah, there's some, but yeah, the book fair is still around.
But yeah, I think there's, I would say there's over 10 of these little books. Does he still get the newsletter that he brings home or you can order the books and the books coming later? Yes.
Does he still do that? No, no, no, no, no, no. So that's not a thing anymore?
No. Wow. Interesting.
Yep. Also this week, the Matt Damon vehicle, the Adjustment Bureau releases today. Looks good, looks good for a little bit and then I was like, Thank God.
It got too born for me. 72% on Rotten Tomatoes. Like somebody else was trying to do the born identity.
72%. For those of you who don't know what Rotten Tomatoes is, that is a website. You can go to Rotten Tomatoes.com.
They basically take all of the reviews for a movie, put them together, and the percentage of good reviews make up its rating. Passing is 60%. That's going to do it for movie talk.
You are listening to the clubhouse of the Robin Cody. We are live every Tuesday night on Newstream. Check out our website, www.theclubhousewithrobbincody.com.
Is the place you can get to Cody's blog, you can get to my blog, you can get to our merchandise store, get you some swag. All kinds of stuff. Yeah, you can follow me on Twitter, Cody, PS Hawk.
I am, yes, that robber of an ERVIN. We are going to move on right now, and we're going to talk about something that you don't hear us talk about, at least on this show, we've talked about it before. But we haven't talked about it on this show.
We're going to talk a little golf. That was a big one. You know, we're going to go across to Destiny Cody?
Yes. We had a major, a major championship, i.e. the Masters, the British Open.
The US, the Congressional Country Club hosted the US Open. That was in Washington, D.C. I saw this coming Friday.
This is a guy, Roy McLemore, she's been in a hole for a couple of days, won it by almost nine strokes. And this was a guy who had the Open lead pretty much Friday. Youngest guy to win it, breaks, I don't say breaks, but does a lot, breaks quite a bit of Tiger's records in this little run that he's on.
And I was pretty shot to see him do so much with a field. I don't know how strong the field actually was. I know that some of your guys were in it, your Ls, your Yangs, some of your other golfers were in it, Sergio Garcia, which he had to qualify to get in.
So this thing starts on Thursday. He pretty much had this thing wrapped up by Saturday afternoon. Never was a big Sergio fan, but he was a name that was in it.
Roy McLemore, I can't seem to say his name right. He's been a guy, it's been a phenom since he was about 718 years old. So this guy's been expected to do this kind of stuff for years.
Sounds like McLemore. Yeah, this wasn't a guy who just all said, I'm going to win a major tournament. Golf had really had their eye on him for a long time.
Is he going to be the next big thing? And I post this question, we've already done it. Congratulations, Roy, he's going to take a three week break.
I don't want to get into the NBC Pledge of Allegiance thing. That happened, I don't know if you heard about this. No, go ahead, because I heard something about it.
But NBC issues apology, because when we started play Sunday, they edited the words out from under God, out of the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag, during their pre-thing. And I post this, I won't get into this, but I'm talking about the hot topic issue. Question for everybody here listening, and I appreciate everybody listening.
Do we get outside of the National Anthem, which I'm all for? Do we get to patriotic at these things that when it takes a little step, a little hiccup in it, we blow up on media, we blow up on the situation? So you're saying that maybe this was a little over-blind?
Well, I don't know if it was necessary to even have the Pledge of Allegiance where it was at in the show. I just, to me, if it's going to be that big of a deal, just don't do it at all. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
If we, NBC says it would happen, they apologized, I think, NBC to me was held responsible, and I totally agree with that. If you're going to start the National Anthem, you're going to start the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag. Finish it.
Finish it. Do it right. That's why one of my things with sporting events, X-I-E, the Super Bowl, sing the song.
Yep. I don't need you to rewrite what Francis Scott Key wrote. Nope.
Right. Let me sing the song. So NBC got a hot water for that.
I thought, for the most part, their coverage was done very well. A question I asked to you, and everybody in the chat room, is this kid the next Tiger? But see, here's something that we talk about on this show, all the time.
Can we stop being, is this person the next so-and-so? Okay, why can't he be the first Rory McElroy? I just think Tiger's the bar.
Just like Jordan's the bar. I wouldn't say Tiger's the bar right now. I see.
Tiger five years ago. Yeah. But he's the majors, the wins, the money, Tiger's the bar in that sport.
In the majors, Jack Nicholas is the bar until you tell me otherwise. Yeah. But, I mean, with this generation of golf, Tiger's the bar.
I think it's way too early to even start making this. Well, this... Let McElroy win it.
I mean, he came close to the Masters. He wins this thing. Yes.
Absolutely. John is right. He, part of his representation, he doesn't change McMahon.
That's right. And he was there. But, it's so early to start making these labels.
Let this kid start winning tournaments and start winning majors. Yes, he's been a phenom since he was like in the womb, but I'm not there yet. My deal with McElroy is, and I think, and we can tie this in together, my next point was, is he the future of golf?
Here's the deal. Tiger's had three in the operations. Tiger Woods is not getting any younger.
I'm not going to be the one that says Tiger's done. I don't want to take that with it. I don't want to go that way with it just yet.
I believe Tiger Woods needs to get on a golf course and play golf and practice and get on that knee. If I'm Tiger, I'm not playing the rest of the year. Well, you said that last year, too.
Yeah, I thought he should have took a year off in the get-go. And everybody thought that was the dumbest thing. No, I agree with you.
Stay out till you're 100%. Is he hurting for money? No, absolutely not.
That's what I'm saying. Roy McElroy may be the future of golf, but he's not the future of American golf, because let me tell you something. He's not American.
He's from Ireland. Northern Ireland, excuse me. I think with America, America will never embrace him because he's not American.
I disagree. I totally agree with that. Oh, it's your opinion.
That's why you agree with that. I disagree. I think as long as you had a guy, American guy, Roy McElroy does nothing for American golf.
Nothing. And the sport will suffer in this country. Well, I think what you're going to have to see is our leaderboard, we saw leaderboard, your top 10, not one from the United States of America was in your top 10.
At the U.S., open. At the U.S., open. So.
I just think that you know, and I'm not begging anybody if you're, hey, come back and shout out to Moscow. We had Moscow, shout out to Edinburgh, shout out to Polotus in South America. Yeah.
All the people hitting the website, thank you. And this is, I'm not anti any country. But I just think with American golf, as we've seen, like we were seeing with American tennis right now.
But to me, it's going to get to the point where nobody in this country cares again. To me, American tennis has never really been two words that I put together. Well, I'm just saying, you got to think of guys like San Frisk, guys like Agasy.
You watch the documentary not too long ago on Jimmy Conner's. People like that. I mean, you're talking about Bjorn Borg, John McEnroe, Jimmy Conner's.
Well, America got in the mid 80s early 90s, you had all these American players. I think golf is in trouble. If they don't get an American superstar again, I'm not saying globally, but in this country, I believe the PGA suffers in this country.
That's my opinion. That's proven fact that when Tiger doesn't play, nobody watch a rating suffer. And if I don't know, I don't know from a worldwide angle.
I don't think golf will die. If I was in BC about seven o'clock Friday night, I'm getting nervous. Thursday night or Friday morning, I'm getting nervous.
Because you had a 19 hours of coverage Saturday and Sunday, and you had a guy with a nine stroke lead. But who carried it all Thursday? Friday.
That was the SPN did. That would be the four-letter count. None of it was live.
Oh, what? None of it was live. Did we ran it?
Yeah. I know my around the Horn of PCI. Yeah.
The only channel that had a live T-off was the golf channel, which is owned by NBC. That is true. So,rory, congratulations.
Absolutely. I'm going to watch this kid. I'll watch some majors.
Back to tiger. I'd like to see tiger win a tournament. Are you hearing Nelson's show open?
I don't know if he plays again this year. Don't think he needs to. What does he need to do to get back?
I mean, what strength does that need you? He did, but from a play standpoint, let's just go let's just say he doesn't come back until 2012. How many tournaments does he need to leave is he need to leave with need to win in 2012 in your eyes To make this thing happen.
Well to me it looks like Tiger's been is gonna come to be a guy that's only gonna play in majors He's gonna play in Dubai He's gonna play your majors and he's gonna play in his tournament the national at the end of the year The used to be the old Kimper open right so he's gonna play in that tournament But let's just say 2012 as a whole as a whole He has to win for you to say he's back One major just one major one major if Tiger could win the Masters when the British open if Tiger could win a major I think it'd get a lot of monkeys off his back and I think you could kind of start I don't know if we'll ever see the dominance of a sport ever again like what Tiger Woods But boy, I tell you what seeing that this weekend in DC to me were reminded me lot of the dominance We saw with Tiger Woods in my opinion and this is surely my opinion to me. It's too early and it might be But I'm not a guy that on the links every other weekend either. It's true.

Oh, he's in the room. I saw I see it now Okay, here we go well I Lit we listen to show this over a weekend. We got to this segment.
I listened real close. I Said it best if the home team was due But boy, I didn't think it was gonna be do that large if you watched any of this game Well, the away the away team was due the away team. Yeah, that's the way team was due before we get into that I want to say congratulations to John his Boston Bruins first cup since 1972 and Kofi Kingston's Boston coffee cans we found out.
Yeah, so Boston does win game seven watched most watch game seven in the NHL since 1973 Wow, so the ratings was there of course NBC carried it. I just hope that doesn't that Moment with the Bruins and with hockey doesn't get overshadowed by the BS that started outside the the arena We'll get to that later Boston to me. It's always weird at hockey basketball is not as an issue But to me hockey when you went on somebody else's ice to me.
It always gets dicey with hockey Oh absolutely It's always a little unstable because most hockey fans are bleeding hearts and probably pretty drunk Yeah, you know, and I just I knew that might have a chance to be a very volatile situation that night in Vancouver Boston does win they win the they hoist the cup if you watch any baseball this weekend They brought the cup the Finway. Yes, they did as they marched around Finway Saturday I got a question for you and I noticed this fairly quickly in The situation did you notice this got more coverage in the Maverick's winning the title? It but again, it's it's a his like How can I put this properly Historic town for that sport if the Cowboys win they get that kind of coverage on the SPN It's not necessarily about the market.
It's about the team if the Lakers win they get that kind of coverage If you know if the Yankees win they get that kind of coverage I kind of know it was one of the original six. Yeah. Oh, absolutely great great town John We need to get together we need to change some messages man So we can get the get our bet worked out shirts like I said man shirt shot glass hat whatever you need to what I can fulfill for you I will rock that brewing Stanley Cup shirt all over Dallas man So cool bet get in touch with me fun game watch the whole thing watched it from Bell to Bell watch the whole game I was out of pocket.
Yeah, really of course rooted for Boston You know, I think and we'll get to this later There was something that really affected American hockey back in the in the in the late 90s We'll get to that later in the show. I want to see the American teams do well in hockey because I think the sport the country needs it for the sport You know, I'm saying I think American hockey is getting real real hit or miss in the country right now So it's great to see Boston win an American team win I want to rewind a little bit because there's a question that I just thought of and I wanted to ask you if you Are a member of that team you win this thing in Somebody I know you're going with this if you win if you win that cup in somebody else's house if it's me I'm not lifting that cup until I get back state. No, I'm back in the lock you skate it man You skate it for tradition no matter where you're at the star skated it in Buffalo now they did I mean you got it when you win it does every player on that to do it every every player skates the cup You've got to skate the cuff extradition But yeah, I just kind of noticed Boston won the cup and you've got a whole lot more coverage in my opinion Nationally to me then then the Mavericks winning the NBA world championship Well, and you're absolutely right, but again, it's one of those deals Just like it's like I said if the Cowboys went in the Super Bowl It's not this city.
It's the team in relation to the sport Know what hoisted high there we go Just also if like we did talk earlier the the craziness that turned into the the great city of Vancouver after that game I had what would have happened if they would have won the cup That that was what you had texted me that yeah, what happens if mom go and stay classy Vancouver and then you said to me a textback saying What happened if they were a one? Yeah, I mean, I don't know what caused that I don't know if they felt and this has happened anywhere more than in hockey. Yeah, I don't think it does NBA used to have a big player in that NBA Chicago would burn or LA would burn city of wood yeah, NBA chat NBA had a NBA had a big reputation of that when the Bulls and Lakers and Celtics were winning titles But yeah, Vancouver to me look like they lost their ever loving There were people.
I mean, it was insane out the the footage Have you seen the picture of the couple about it? Yes, I have heard that's Photoshop. No, I know that I have seen the above shot Taking from the building above that that is a real shot.
Yes. She uh, thank you have thank you for the birthday wishes Happy birthday. Well, Milestone milestone episode tonight episode 50 So if you know some might that's not listing tweet them the link Text them let's pack this chat room pack this show 50 weeks until the season for yes So but no, I have seen that it wasn't Photoshop.
They got caught in a riot and she slipped and spring her ankle He wasn't kissing her either. Oh, okay So this wasn't a little branching in these yeah, and these people in the media Well, this is like when World War two ended in the sailor grab the nurse time out This is it actually heard you say last night. This is a team that was bitter.
They didn't win the cup Don't make this like the ending of world. Did you see the footage of the guy that was trying to break things up And then another guy like shoved him and the guy the one guy didn't you know He was he was egging this other guy on and that guy comes from it out of nowhere and knocks him clean So to me it's a and I you know great city I mean Toronto great country don't have any bones with them That was not your best side that was shown post game the other night But you know what and on the other side of that coin the next day Would they say like 30,000 people came to downtown Vancouver to help clean everything? I'd never seen nothing worth as far as a celebration that was in front of the world like that the 92 93 cowboy parade Please go ahead and please elaborate on that for us that don't know when we saw that when that reminded me in my life as well That reminded me of the 93 surf bowl parade for the cowboys if anybody in the room remembers that Yet 400,000 people crammed in downtown Dallas the other night and by the way speaking to parades everybody Hey, Dallas.
You stayed classy the other day for the Maverick parade 300,000 strong other than heat related incidents no incidents So good. Yeah, stay a little classy in that deal But 93 cowboy parade Brandon's any skip school a lot of people skip school for that and that thing like I told you that thing got Primitive to where we were carrying spears and rocks dragging our girlfriends across the road by the hair of the head We look we look so primitive that day and it's the fights. There was riots Yes, there was a car that caught on fire in the in the middle of the parade NFL cowboy players Jory gets snatched off their necks It was nuts and if you don't go to the go in YouTube Which I did YouTube 93 cowboy parade and you'll see a lot of this.
It's it's nuts So but Vancouver like you said stay classy Boston John Congratulations brother not only on that cup, but on an incredible Incredible series it was up. It was down. We got things that beat came back and beat tampon seven I mean they'd won three game seven.
Yeah beat tampon seven beat Monterey all in seven then won the cup in seven So Boston great season my boy, too, but my boy Tim Thomas. He did shave his beard for charity But he kept on my stash. So yeah, he looks he looks weird at the Gillette.
So Well, the the isolated mustache alone on most people looks odd in it. You're not 1970 real quick one last thing on hockey in it your boy to read a governor's approved thrashers move to Winnipeg Do we call that team the jets? We do not have that approved yet And the story I read today they had there was no comment made.
I say you have to you have to but Straight I mean do I really care about the Winnipeg thrashers? It's gotta be the jets man, and I don't you know they they moved to Not Colorado Colorado was halter. Oh, no, they moved to Phoenix.
Yeah Atlanta's old team with the Calc Yeah, but when a peg got to call a team the jets, bro Then there was this But yeah hockey hockey very short offseason and no Dallas star signed a new coach So hopefully we'll have some some some local hockey to talk but Boston really cool and bought I think when a team like that wins a When the team like that wins a title. I think it's really cool Boston great sport city lover. I hate them One of the teams there.
I want no affiliation with whatsoever, but Boston. Yeah, Boston great sports town Great spot. Never been to Boston.
Check it out. It's great sports town If you joined us less than 48 hour a little over 48 hours ago at Fox and Hound We do appreciate it. We do all of your pay per view WWE pay per view pre shows live from Fox and Hound and Richardson but Yeah, I'm not glad my I'm glad my name's not on this thing I'll tell you that What do you say?
I mean what do you say about capital punishment? Well, I'll say this I'll say this I'll start I thought one thing in a while and I'm watching a lot of things and sometimes It's around the ring. It's in the ring.
I thought the entrance was was cool. It's shape like the like the capital building Yes, I thought that was kind of neat. You saw it before I did.
I was doing a bunch of show stuff, but I mean when that's the best thing you can say about a paper Well, and I thought the opening match was okay. I liked we called it on this show in the pre show I thought Dolph Ziggler was due to be the United States champion He did the way he wanted I thought was kind of weird. Yeah Kofi up against the robes Vicki he rakes his eyes and then He ends up getting choked out by Ziggler and the refs not looking.
It's our neck. It's just it's real Everybody in the whole room went did what what did he just go out from a sleeper hold? Is this are we in the garden in 83 Brandon's right?
It was literally capital punishment three out But I thought that was an okay match. It's a title change I thought needed to happen because let's be honest. I like Kofi drop the gun a bit You're from Boston your profile picture.
It's a Boston Celtic logo based on it And you tweet congratulations to my hometown Yeah, I'm the first guy when I check Twitter after Boston won the cup John's not never get tired of saying hear me say all right But when Boston won the cup the other night the first guy on Twitter was Kofi Kingston and said He goes thanks to my congratulations to my hometown brewins. Okay vents drop the gun a bit I'm not saying go K quick with it, but drop the gun a bit But what do you do with it? You really can't be I said what I said real cost and I've said this for years reform the nation We talked about that a little bit.
Why can't the paper be with some of our listeners? Why can't we reform the nation domination? Why can't that be Bill Jackson Kofi Kingston our truth and Delria?
JTG JTG yeah Because you can't spare it up. But remember what the nation was all about It was about taking these guys that word that were held down by the company And I think JTG fits that yeah, I thought I think that'd be a great place for Kofi But he he worked and speaking of working. I thought Ray worked well Sunday night And I haven't able to say that in five six years I thought the Ray Mysterio CM Punk match to me outside of Orton and Christian to me that was the match of the night You thought that CM Punk I thought Ray well because everybody thought CM Punk was gonna lose I did I pretty didn't bet But the ending of that he takes the 619 almost tried to pull the same thing off last night that ending was great Yeah, great ending.
I thought Ray worked a little bit I thought punk punks always great. We're on the stick. He's great.
The ring resign him We're gonna talk about that coming up. Yeah, he's great on the stick. He's great on the ring I just I like him.
I like CM Punk the fake Obama Did we see I? Was that Reggie was that Reggie Brown was it the same guy that they kicked out of the The Republican meeting the other night their dinner. It could have been he put to me He sounded like our president on helium Yeah, because there was a a Reggie Brown a comedian that was doing a Obama impersonation at a Republican meeting convention dinner Was excused from the podium as he got a little Got a little racial and a lot of people were real uncrollingly when I said I said it when I saw that Was that the same guy that was at Capitol Punishment Sunday night?
Let me ask you this because When they showed him come out to the podium and there were national guardsman in the audience that were saluting Was I wrong to be a little offended on that Yeah, I just I'm curious what the bit was there if those guys were just guys you know, well He's seen opposed with him later on So they might have been yeah, that was a little strange that really really just but hey, you know I'm a man. It's not the president. Let's not get stupid.
It's you know guys having fun And it's one less one day. They didn't have anybody shooting at them So if those gonna have a little fun with something I'll allow that that made me uncomfortable some But and then the title changes that didn't happen you as an you as an icy yeah I'm still worker belts. Yeah, I'm still shocked.
We have two face champions right now in my opinion That shocked me a little bit that we had a that we didn't at least have Orton and or Cena Orton was more believable, but one of those two guys dropped the belt surprised me I mean, I just I don't know Both wins were clean Yeah, um, of course I thought and you know what Our truth tried I thought Cena worked stiff And run me out of here the first time you saw that yeah, I really thought I really thought he could have done a lot For Ron to put Ron over, but he didn't I thought Cena worked extremely stiff. I'm not saying our true toll coven. I'm not going that with I'm not he's not shown by the ballpark Yeah, he's not Jeff Hardy, but let me tell you I thought our truth was trying to do something with it And I just think Cena wouldn't allow it.
That's my thing That also thought would Cena came out the way they had the entrance looking uh-huh I had one stripe on each side. It was that with it though. It was borderline stars and bars, and I'll go okay We maybe change that up so it doesn't look so much like a rebel flag But that's just me, but then the filler match was a shock You know, we get to the end of the of the Orton Christian match Which again I set on the pre show because it was Cena Cena would be last And it was this and it would end the whole thing on a down note But we get it's you know 10 after 9 central time you've got 50 minutes left in this pay-per-view And I'm going you're gonna make our truth and Cena go 50 minutes And then here comes the guy that does a Tony Chimble saying Bonus attract we have a bonus attraction That's what they say when they announce a dark match.
Yeah, and it's swagger And Evan born Yeah, that's what they say if you're being the WWE live event That's what they say for your dark matches when the cameras go or or one after the yeah, yeah Is this is a special attract a special attraction and all of a sudden these two spares and why are they varying swagger? Could be a great heel a great there are so and they are varying him there are so many guys right now That are if they're not in the title hunt they're done and the and does that mean to use is maybe the Is Is the roster too deep? Is that the problem we have is that you've just got guys I just think with the with the roster being what it is right now I think Vince is is too scared to give another guy shot to run I think he everything right now with that company with the roster the way it is It's a very fragile time in that company and I just think Vince is afraid to hand somebody else the ball so But that was capital punishment now Are you standing by your C plus?
You know I said this after the mat after on the way when we were back going coming back from the Establishment I said this I said C plus on the pre show. I'm gonna go with C minus I just didn't know if he Vince had a hell of a lot to work with in my opinion We want to do a couple of quick A couple of quick TNA because we're not doing a TNA segment that we covered out on Sunday Oh, I didn't see them my buddy fills in the room. So all that so all that screen name fill will be We'll be road tripping here in a couple see a september 13th jack First of all, I I downgrade my grade on this pay review to an F minus Okay, so you know what and I'll go D But I just think era why couldn't we've done a special Sunday night on USA with this deal Why did we have to make the public pay 53 dollars in high definition for this it just it wasn't necessary Had to had to alert Cody to what's going on classic raw the studio Matt Hardy suspended indefinitely although he is neither confirming nor denying Right now he's playing this off on his Twitter feed.
Oh, I love to read what people say on the internet This is multiple sides reporting that you can't show up to work on time and you are They hardy's need to get as far as away from professional wrestling as I can they're they're they're jokes They're jokes. They've ruined their legacy in my opinion not a big fan of him anyway, but there it is Also, uh, Scott Hall going to jail for 10 days all that coming But 10 days is actually a lot more than a lot less than I'd ever expect him to spend so We all want to uh Well, what I just want to I want him to get better. I just well I wanted to get better so we can put him in the hall, but I No pun intended.
No pun. Yeah. Sorry.
Also another quick addition We talked about the bound for glory series last week how it's just bound for glory series matches Little something I forgot to tell you on Sunday That includes house shows sir There will be bound for glory series matches at TNA house shows So little a little something that makes you want to go to a house show Because you never know what you're gonna see we're gonna have one of this town for raw inside of the night I'm not paying 70 bucks to go there. I'm just saying That's gonna do it for capital punishment talk Hopefully we'll never have to have that again. Hopefully they will not do this pay-per-view again next year Because if they do I'm gonna be really sad because that was a horrible pay-per-view Worst I've watched in a long time and that's saying a lot right now.
Let's say the business Let's do a little music talk. I want to say this please do And hear me out everybody everybody in the chat room hear me out Was this a Three three at the ballpark three one Houston. Sorry.
Oh really? As he the battle for the spare silver boot going on right now. Wow There haven't been a more a forced rivalry than Houston and the Rangers until they joined the west um Was this a dignitary that died No This thing has been Monia this is a midnight to me a monumental death Now are you saying this has been to you as such?
Yeah, no it's been portrayed in the media as just this Huge Musician and I just I had a real hard time if in the most people who didn't play the saxophone wouldn't know who this got what or if you if you're not a spree Yeah, so let's let's be honest You know Clarex Clemens cake. We saturday night this happened. We reported last weekend in the stroke He did pass away Saturday evening clearance Clemens.
Yes, so I just this thing has gotten a lot of legs as a person who plays the saxophone allegedly As someone who is who knew who this name was Clarence Clemens is one of the premier saxophonists of our time. Let me just run you down The associated accident he's played with of course Bruce Springstreet the east street band a wreath of Franklin the grateful dead Jackson Brown jerry garcia solo band ringo star at his all star band. He did some work with the The more recently with the lady Gaga.
Yes, I mean this guy is one of the premier saxophonists of our time His passing was a big deal In the music. Oh, I don't give you that. Oh, yeah, I'm not but it's just man.
It seemed like this thing really Was a thing like you said if you didn't play the saxophone and you weren't a friend of spring sting you might not have known who this is But with but but within any community You know, let's save let me just reverse it if If someone of of an old school country I'm not gonna take George because George's universal But somebody that you would think was big within the within the country community passed away I might think the same thing Huh, but this guy within that within the classic rock community within the within the jazz community This guy was one of the big ones. He'll be missed He will be miss. He's absolutely Brandon we're gonna talk about that a little bit later.

Yes get out of get out of Toronto Well, or just go to LA because that's where they know that we're every apparently every sports team should be with the LA Yeah, everything's moving to LA Tuesday night our Thursday night something that used to be a really big deal to me less than 40 hours away The NBA draft takes place at the Madison Square Garden theater in New York, New York wait what the mask We're guarding theater the little fear that what's happening there the NBA draft have a draft Yeah, the NBA draft today.
They do have a draft most of them get drafted and go play for playing Europe How's that legal as Ricky Rubio will make a debut with well in a soda temple Thank you. Did you see that footage today? Ricky Rubio arrives at the airport 200 people there Almost all of them ten minutes of the temperable employee And he has had one of the his this season for him last year I say this is the bit.
I'll say look it up Ricky Rubio had his worst year in Spain playing basketball this season. Oh, he was average He needs a fresh start. He needs a fresh start Minnesota and Minnesota is hoping they can package him with Kevin love and do something But the draft is on Tuesday course Cleveland as we all know Cleveland won the lottery Cleveland pigs number one and number four and number four Tyree Evans is the one I'm hearing it one.
I don't know if they know Kyrie Irving Kyrie Irving I don't even know if any of these guys are NBA ready now there was there was a thing where there was or they were Throwing out rumors that they were looking at somebody else because they were trying to see What the interest was that if they didn't take Kyrie Irving at one that they could still get him at four I just are there they are back committed to Kyrie Irving are any of these guys are any of these guys In B.A. Ready. Here's the here's here's prediction Chad Chad Ford's which a guy that I like a lot He's saying Kyrie Irving number one to Cleveland Okay, Derek Williams number two to Minnesota And as Katner out of turkey To Utah which I showed but that shows you the state of but of who I was in there Yes, I don't know why Utah wouldn't take the kid out of B.
Why you he's a legend For debt. Yes, why wouldn't he was a PC? Why wouldn't Utah take that guy?
But I'm just gonna run through your top your top of 12 here So you've got Cleveland, Minnesota, Utah Cleveland again Toronto, Washington, Sacramento, Detroit Charlotte, Milwaukee, Golden State, and Utah and then Phoenix, Houston, Indiana They they're your non-playoff. I mean the Houston Rockets are your last non-playoff team with a pick so 14 There's nobody in here that really blows me away There's not that there's not that Blake Griffin. There's not that you know that guy there's NBA can't miss There's not a D-way.
There's not it. There's those guys aren't in this draft class Pat Riley says the heat will continue winning with Eric Spolstra you buy that or you selling that I completely buy that Because we're not changing anything with that team. Nope.
No, according to Pat Riley today and a very non What's the word? Not emotional. He was very even killed today in this press conference I am totally on board with this and he's not gonna be making any changes.
I think They have to win it next year as much as I hate to say that They have to win this next year and if they don't then head start to roll just I just the NBA draft to me I don't know what I don't know what happened to this deal did we did we I you know what I Number one, it's it's a developmental problem I don't know if I can look at a page on these like trip for a woman Tristan Thompson out of Texas I'm just gonna pick him out of the out of the bag I saw Texas play quite a few games and saw him play in the tournament. I'm sorry Tristan Thompson's not ready for the National Basketball Association of Power Forward He's just not he's not ready to make that step. He's not Why is it the money Why do something and be a bust when you could wait and save somewhere two years and be great?
Is it the money? It's got to be the money Because these guys bust and they're a joke they may not play for two years NBA I'm gonna dive into that this weekend. I'll have a full report on NBA their little labor situation They may be two or three years apart.
So these guys may get drafted year four. They finally step on the court Wow, so have a draft, but the NBA way there as far as as the East is from the West brother But there's this Kimball Walker out of Connecticut I thought Kimball Walker when the tournament started. I thought he was the best player in the country You did you said out of this very show.
I said Kimball Walker right now to me They have him the ninth or tenth player in this draft Branded night the point guard out of Kentucky's a guy that I saw playing the SEC tournament. I don't know He's that right hot water right now. Yes.
I just NBA draft to me Until the NCAA can get a decision where these kids have to at least stay two years Or they can't play as freshmen. Yeah The league will suffer and as we go on this league the play of this league will get worse and worse and worse It'll be bad fundamental basketball That's basketball talk Again, they're in the offseason and we're waiting to hear more on that labor situation And I'm gonna have worse than we had it worse. I want to I want to get one labor done before I do another one Can't you have a baby?
I want to get one out of it if I make another move but But yeah, I'm I'm getting the NFL labor, but I will I will get a report and kind of see where we're at with that But they are a long way away people Trust me. Well now we're going to go to these new bit new bit new bit new bit new bit new bit Okay, new bit sounder new bit sounder Okay Okay Just wait on it There we go All right, you know, I said something the other night And if you go back listen last week show, which we hope you were listening live or you did listen in our in an archive I said something that I had some hot sports opinions about a person you did you did and I am calling our new bit Which it's gonna be a rotating bit rob will do one next week. Uh-huh not necessarily always at the same Yes, but just different things and it may not be every week But this week we're calling this bit point of interest person of interest person of interest in my p Oh, I this week is one Nolan Ryan you've already got an acronym.
Yes Yeah, Nolan Ryan I said during doing baseball talk. I've got some hot sports opinions about Nolan Ryan Well, first of all I'll start with my co-host here. What are your opinions of Nolan Ryan Paula famer no doubt in my mind deserves to be there Seven no hitters play 27 years That's over two thirds of my life I Don't really like him personally.
Yeah, and that's the thing, but I mean you look at the deals You pay with four teams in 27 years think what once break that now eight times all stars got a got a ring in 69 Was the a l picture of the year in 77 His numbers retired in anaheim his numbers retired in Houston his numbers retired at right here with Texas He's in the he's in the Texas Rangers ball of fame He's a member of the major league baseball all-century team 5,700 to 14 career strikeouts and seven no hitters. I mean He got in on the first ballot 99 I'm just My deal with my deal with Nolan Ryan real quick is and I want to take this more of present day And I'm going to take it we this this this show is recorded Performed live for you out of the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. Yes, it is I want to focus more on that in his legacy.
We knew Nolan was great. Nolan Ryan has one world series ring If you think with the New York match the miracle 69 match Okay, was there between 66 and 1971 if you remember as Ron did run run is in the room as Rob did say last week He was traded he they didn't think he could win as let's crazy to me But I want to go move on to what we we us here in Texas are some of y'all there in Texas have a Kinship very close heart to Nolan Ryan Okay, but between the years of 1989 and 1993 for the most part in my opinion in most baseball people Nolan Ryan was done Greed disagree I've given me give me the years again 89 to 93 we talked about the years you paid with the Rangers as much you're saying is I just start with Nolan Ryan once he got to Texas and even sometimes with Houston I thought Nolan had a chance to win a world more world series and it was just something about it In my opinion, but when you know Nolan Ryan faced New York met to the nationally championship series And he they ended up losing to the mats in the 86 nationally championship series as Nolan Ryan's on the mound I'm not saying it has to be perfect But we have a thing we've made him big text We've made him this person up until a few years ago He wanted to buy the Houston Astros way before he wanted to buy the Texas Rangers But I think with the Rangers There's one picture In that's true in that sad Him and Robin Ventura that's true. It's him beating up or when Bo Jackson he's in the voucher There's two of them the busted lip from from that I just I don't know man.
He's been in my he's been so vocal lately the Chuck Greenberg thing I just want to know and I'd love to do we is this guy really the nice guy the big Texan That we all think he is or is this guy just a guy who was there did a bunch of stuff and now I just don't know if I'm a Ranger fan will find out if Nolan Ryan's a baseball guy I know he's a great pitcher. I know he's a Hall of Famer Do I think he's executive of the year? I don't we not probably not Because you can't you can't judge last year on him being executive in here because Really by the time they can't control with that team Wheels were already in motion.
Yes. That's true I just he's been a guy that especially here locally He's been so in the forefront of the Ranger since the run and you know that none of that right We've talked about that on this show before but we all I'm not talking Nolan necessarily the pitcher This is called person of interest Not my playing career. Am I in the Hall of Famer not My Cody and Rob.
So what are you asking then? I'm asking the people out there. What is your have if if if Nolan Ryan is so great I just got a question.
Do you think in y'all Ranger fans? I don't know there's got people from Florida in there might be mulling fans I know there's a few you in there. Can this team can Nolan Ryan have the leadership and does he have the control the owners to win a World Series in Texas?
I don't know you sir you first sir. I don't know but I will say this he didn't win the one last year That's true and but but he also if you live in the Dallas Portwards Metroplex When was the last time that Ron Washington was in a headline That's true. It's been all Nolan Ryan.
No one Ryan's been the figurehead in this town since was it July 31st of last year Ron Washington is becoming non factor from a media sample that's true And that's true and I'm not like I say this isn't I just with Nolan I heard him make some comments the other day whoa whoa brother Whoa Jack let me tell you something he gets eight rings rings on his finger he can take that last name brother Explain what you're just saying does this name Steinbrenner needs needs not to never be next anything with Rangers in front of it I promise you that Promise you that So that'll never happen Brother the bear just get poked yeah the bear just got poked and you know what I got poked But I've got all the skins on the one 27 world title. Yeah, but would you know what That that that tree outside yeah, no that that'll yeah, but no I'm not saying that and you know what good for the Rangers. I just I want to see this guy I want to see this guy in a business what he can do I think the strong arm of the law tight leadership with the Rangers I'm still want to know and I know there's been a gag where what happened between Nolan Ryan and Chuck Greenberg Oh, yeah, I for this guy to be so squeaky cleaning great.
What happened between Nolan Ryan and and Josh Lewin? What happened between no one I know what happened with just no the Ryan Josh Lewin He said Josh Lewin wasn't old school baseball enough And what happened between he's already fired another play-by-play announcer John Radigan He just had a John Radigan of the curve after Was that great? I just I just this guy is a person of interest to me on his attitude and his part in the way he takes care of business So Person of interest Rob who's your person of interest next week?
Well, you just dropped us on me today So I got to think I might have somebody for you next week me now you are not going to be person of interest Sir it's time to go on campus a little bit Just a little bit a little bit As you know college football now 78 days away can you believe that? It just seems like that thing just took off. I'm ready for it sir But we will start off in baseball As today we we had a limitation.
I know this is gonna hurt you to talk about We had a elimination game yesterday and we had a elimination game today Karate fires As the University of Texas A&M eliminated today by Cal and then yesterday Something that I just a big 12 when it comes these things I kind of get big 12 on it Texas to and out in the world series Texas a a usually a power in this deal first time since 2000 in their last six appearances that's happened to Texas that tells you anything so Texas out of the college world series Of course they lose to Florida, which I'll be honest man. I to me right now if I had to blindly And just going off what I've seen I watch a little bit of Florida Texas game to me Florida's the best looking team in the country That I have seen with my with my eyes Then they beat Vanderbilt today Vandy beat Texas. They send Vandy the losers bracket So I just North Carolina bounces Texas, which North Carolina wasn't that good But then Texas kind of limped into the deal if you saw them later on but Cal Eliminates A&M But I'm not trying but to me man.
I'm telling you don't be shocked if the Florida Gators aren't aren't holding that deal Because to me as as what I have seen to me They look to to me they look to have the best looking team That I've seen in this thing so far. That's just my opinion they had to actually continue that game after the cancel last night They to finish the Vanderbilt game today And this new stadium of course we're not it we're not at the old stadium. We are in the new stadium there at Omaha Sports center being their live.
I mean what are you do you do you embrace the The college football. I mean the college world series. Are you Do you keep up with Florida wins it?
I know I was all being a Florida fan. There's some pride there Is it something you would see or or be proud of you but you wouldn't go out and buy a t-shirt and a hat for it I didn't buy last time they wanted. I mean, I want my team to do well I mean, I watched this about as much as I watched the Little League World Series.
That's how you do. Oh really? I mean that shows you was you know I appreciate what the guys are doing, but it doesn't Doesn't really tell me much But then we also had right now alive right now top of top of four South Carolina defending national champion South Carolina at five nothing over number one team Virginia So South Carolina I don't read I don't want to say repeat just yet But we look to be kind of going they look to be for real I'm going to go and say national title game SEC style Florida versus South Carolina for the national That is best.
I'm best of three. I'm throwing that out there Just not don't put any stock into it double elimination until the finals and then in the final two It's best of don't call Vegas Oklahoma State to build a 16 million dollar indoor practice facility that was announced today saw that earlier um Okay Boone he's got Boone Pickens and Boone Pickens and Oklahoma State they're determined to buy a national championship in some some sort of way So Matt Noah power to them the national championship game will take place January 9th Hopefully fall a football. We have pushed that thing back.
So your your BCS championship game in New Orleans at the Superdome January 9th No no games on New Year's Day this year because it's on a Sunday So the national football league that'll be weird. We'll have the January first games and you will have your BCS January New Year's traditional games your roles balls that will start January the second that'll be weird for me Yeah, so no football games on January 1st of the college. So no 10 a.m.
No 10 a.m. Cotton Bowl Well Cotton Bowl was the third they primetime that thing Last year with A&M and LSU I'll say this really that big of a deal So if you follow Twitter I do I'm sure most of you do and you can follow me at Cody PS And I am yes that robber of an ERV. I and also followed clubhouse WRNC which is our show feed Yes, absolutely follow that we're breaking stuff all the time You got my Garth queued up Um, do I need to have to know which Garth is we said last week Now we were going to tear it up and burn it down.
Oh, okay. Okay. Hold on as a cliffhanger returns If you're new to the show and you're not playing the home game.
Let me tell you how this works We pick two teams one we think's going up one we think's going down We talk about last year we talk about what they're going to do this year departures people that stayed We'll go of the current schedule and I will make an educate decision what I think about this team So week one I now says down Twitter which we broke it on our Twitter feed The college football cliffhanger I love this. I know you love this It's one of my favorite things that you do. So in me studied pick two teams Actually got a ballcat and draw two names This first one we always go up before we go down and for me or with the show Need to do things as the team to me that I don't know if this team can get any better than they did that Last year But I think they get the stupid losses out of the way the team that I think is on a major major major up swing this year We'll go down to college station and start with the Texas and M fighting Aggies As they return 10 offensive starters aid on defense That sounds good 18 players returning after losing the cotton bowl to LSU as we just spoke of offense you're losing Terrence McCoy as a wide receiver in a center in Mad Allen Off sent senior offensive lineman are always a big loss Especially when they're at the center because now you got a quarterback that was used to working with one center You can cause a lot of problems Lucas Patterson on defense event and the man the guy number two pick in the draft as Von Miller Is no longer in college station.
He's now in Denver, Colorado as a member of the Denver Broncos That's a that's not going to be a whole easily filled Course quarterback Ryan Tenahill returns to Texan M a senior didn't play till second half of the year after Shoddy play by quarterback Gerard Johnson Texas A&M. We called him a cult. We joke.
We joke once you get down there brother once you get the college station Yeah, that's a strange deal. And if you're not familiar with with Texas A&M and college station They can they can think they are the the cream of the crop and football But they're really not I think Texan M lost some games last year That They were dumb losses in my opinion. Okay.
I thought They do things they bought national they bought big 12 championship rings In college station Because they won the south but last time I checked the banner and the trophies three hours north of here But that's besides the point. Um, I think you can be started. I think a guy to watch out for is going to be senior wide receiver Jeff Fuller And also running back Cyrus Gray and copy that with another senior Christian Michael Jr A&M to me right now has the best core running backs in the big 12 and could be top five in the country wow I'm gonna throw that out there.
I'm not saying national title. I'm not saying that for me it Texas A&M I still think they're I think this year. They're the second best team in the big 12 without followed by somebody else Follow by somebody.
Yeah, I think they're the second best team in the big 12 run their schedule real quick Start off Start off with SMU as the ponies go to college stations Idaho Here's where it gets dicey Oklahoma state comes to college station 924 September 24th if I'm telling you If if a&M can beat Oklahoma state if their defense can put enough pressure on Jeff Weedon and cover that receiver in blackman a&M could make a little run here Arkansas Arkansas may not be the same team as they were last year At Texas tech next Baylor at Iowa State Missouri comes to Kyle Field Then as I told you November the 5th to me the game of the year in the big 12 you've heard it we've heard it nationally man Rob's talked about it November the 5th Norman Oklahoma at OU A&M and OU to me that's the big 12 championship game that night I did it just has that feel at Kansas State Kansas and then they finished up with Texas At Kyle Field by looking the schedule I'm saying maybe one one to two losses max and two loss is the the Unless this thing just tanks and you fire your coach next year I want to look at something while you're talking about that because it's something that I noticed a couple of years ago About A&M and I You mentioned someone that kind of caught me off guard and I really want to look at What's going on here because Something that I've always found strange About A&M And again What is it about A&M Five of your first six games are at home Yes, yeah, they have a favorite very favorable schedule That's why I don't think this is every year they tend to just they don't go on the road until October They don't go again, and then their their toughest their their toughest games are in usually the month of November to the front At Norman then K state whose K state's not a slouch No, K state will jump up Bill Snyder can coach football team and Bill Snyder at times will jump up and bite you But it will never roll a coaster and cliffhanger. There's another direction A team that at one time I actually if you listen back to the college football pre show Which what we did we will do this year we're working out some stuff that might be a live show from a remote We don't know yet a lot of things going on a team that I actually went on limb last year and picked and picked and win the big 10 that was Iowa I think Iowa's a team that may be on the back swing alive this year as they pretty much lost their team Only returning five offensive starters in five defensive starters losing such players as quarterback Ricky Stanzi which is huge Geez Adrian Clayborn defensive and the stud defensive in big 10 defensive player of the year Um also Darryl um Alan Ryzen or a senior tied-in drafted Jevin Coppel a first round offensive guard on the defensive side Troy Thompson outside linebacker I was got some guys that to me they're gonna have to feel to me one too many holes to even think of competing in the big 10 this year And I know this isn't the big 10 we all think of oh how state will be now legends or leaders Okay I just have to throw that out there once in a while just because it's just but Iowa to me is a team to They're not gonna I don't even know and I know it's early. I'll read their schedule.
I'll get your opinion Iowa's a always a decent program always have been always a lot of respect for for them in the big 10 Quarterback James Vandenberg has been handed the reins to the Iowa quarterback position. He's a junior Uh, bright spot on this team in offense wide receiver senior Marvin McNutt which they're saying could be a first round Late or early second round in next year's NFL draft and then junior offensive tackle or Riley Rafe Which is another guy that Mel Kiper's had on a big board So it's not all bad. I just think there's too many key positions a lot of juniors a lot of seniors And then Sean Prader on defense as a senior defense event He's gonna gotta be the guy that takes the Reigns of Adrian Claim board.
I can't put that pressure on this guy. Here's your schedule 9 3 11 Tennessee tech Tennessee tech comes into play Iowa and then you got the at Iowa state Pittsburgh L University of Louisiana Monroe So to me they could easily start the season two and two. I'm giving them a win at Tennessee tech and a win with UL Monroe And you know Dave wants that always has that fluke loss at Pittsburgh Well, he's not even there anymore But Pittsburgh has that ugly loss in them at Penn State at Northwestern at Minnesota They go to the big house with Michigan then go to Michigan state finish on the road at Purdue and at I can't even I'm gonna say this big 10 schedule at Nebraska to finish the season for Iowa But he that's a tough four week five weeks of games at Minnesota Michigan Michigan state at Purdue at Nebraska If I'm an Iowa fan Which I know some state of my birth.
Yeah I'm gonna give you six wins because I think you've got a great enough coach and friends to pull One or two out you shouldn't win So I'm going to give you the six-win bogey in the big 10 and I think Iowa ends up in the lowest possible bowl the big 10 has to offer I'm saying I'm saying alamo I may be saying uh sunbowl somewhere in that oak they're not even going to sniff a BCS ball Jesus please Cliff hanger once again. I will announce those teams for next week new in eastern 11 central on twitter We will then retweet that on the clubhouse of robin Cody clubhouse feed which we do So I will I will take suggestions for teams. I don't usually get into the real big fish till late in the year I'll be honest with you so I'm not going to roll out florida tomorrow next week So I usually get to the big fish later in the years we get up to the season So you kind of getting your top 25 but I'm on the outskirts of of the top 25 right now Also remember to follow our Facebook page of the clubhouse podcast We always we like to break headlines over there That way you we monitor a lot of stuff so you don't have to love that segment love that segment And we're going to do it every week every week until the season starts Yeah, or season starts what we'll do is we'll do cliffhangers And then we will wrap it up with our college football with a huge two-hour pre show That's nothing but wall to wall college football talk.
We did it a lot of fun last year Probably going to be a little bit different than it was done last year We're going to put our heads together, but definitely we'll get that info to you a lot of fun Usually do that the last week of august week before kickoff. Can we just start the season now? Yes, absolutely need some sort of football feels already talking trash Ah Already talking trash.
Yeah, well, I'll tell you what I did I'll get on that before the state to me could be when the most improved teams in the country this year Handsome Jimbo did a great job Jimbo can recruit now. Can he coach some artsy Mac Brown? Are we coach January or coach February?
Love apologize to all my text just things Okay, let us move on a little bit right now. Get the cage shut the door God, I'm got quite a bit to talk about it. This next thing.
Yeah, you are you took you're gonna get that in a little bit Let's let's get to the let's get to the big dogs first. Yeah, let's let's talk about the big leagues first It is time for MMA news It is time for MMA talk UFC 134 scheduled for august 27th at the HSBC arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Wow, we talked about on this show last week. Then it was down there doing a press conference This thing sells out in 74 minutes and I actually look at the arena online That's not that's not a small arena.
That is a good sized facility the hostess event. So I mean if you look at the card card is very shout the card is the card is very a very strong UFC event And also the rumor that still extends that horse Gracie will make a return to the octagon in this There's where they're contract negotiating There's a rumor he may return to the octagon in Rio de Janeiro for UFC 134 So nothing as of yet run the car interesting silver versus yoke and help me with the names here You should oh comey. That's a middleweight title fight force grip.
That would be five rounds I think this is the fight of the night force griffin versus show gun rule That's gonna be hard. I like those two guys. I saw that in win.
Oh Yeah, Antonio Rodrigo, Noriega. Well versus Brendan Schwab Brendan Schwab don't know much about him But they he's doing a lot of press down there right now. I saw Twitter earlier tonight Also the HSBC arena they're in Rio for sports events holds 15,000 So that's not that's a large arena for those guys.
I think if it sold out in 74 minutes I mean hey hang your helmet David Mitchell versus Paul Thiago Yeah, Apollo Thiago. I've seen him. That'll be it.
Yeah, Paul. That is Paul Thiago. I'm sorry And then last guy do I have seen Eric Silva versus Mike SWIC Mike SWIC is a good fighter as well um You have seen that that's a big one.
It's not next week. You were live at strike force American airline center Dallas Saturday night. Saturday night Give it to us, man.
Thank you first of all to Andrew. Yes, Andrew who got who got me a good. We were sitting in the suite I'd never sat in a suite for a live event before that was a good time and in Ron We check the room here.
Ron says Royce Gracie wants more than Dana's willing to pay I just you know what Ron as a guy who watched UFC in its early years I don't know if I want horse Gracie back in the octagon I'll be honest with you as a side show Do we really need to do that? I think he's one of the I mean he's to me the Gracie family is the backbone of UFC They pretty much started this whole deal and what we see I don't know if I want to see Royce Gracie back in the ring in my opinion. I will say this seeing strike force live first of all if you have had any doubt that strike force was the Minor league version of UFC you saw in Saturday night.
There were entire sections that were empty and I mean there were entire rows on the floor that were empty The attendance was horrific. Yeah, you know what I heard you say that I just Why if you're in Dallas, Texas? Why in the world is not Herschel Walker fighting on that strike force cars at night?
Because he was supposed to fight earlier this year. I couldn't believe that we were in Dallas And you didn't have Herschel Walker somehow involved in this in this event that night It was it was pretty pretty bad uh It was it was fun The the undercard was on HD net So of course, you know, Cuban's got his hands on that It's it it was very hard to remember to look at what was going on and they don't have an octagon It's a six-sided cage UFC has the copyright on the octagon I kept looking up at the big screen Instead of looking down on what was going on live that was kind of weird for me to remember to do that From an entrance standpoint. It was a lot It was very much simpler than UFC puts out there The fighting I thought was good.
They are having their heavyweight tournament right now Which my thing was and Ron please try to help me out understand this if you're having a heavyweight tournament Normally what it's what's the what's the ultimate goal in a heavyweight tournament To be that I'm going to continue or win the belt. Why is your champion in the tournament? When you told me that Sunday I was he was in the main event as of Allister Overeen defeats Fabricio worda.
I'm gonna tell you something This happened and the crazy thing is We watched UFC last weekend And there was a fight on the undercard where a guy's the there's one guy every time he go on the ground the other guy would back away And the guy was begging to engage him on the ground and he said I bought not to lose. I didn't fight to win That's what happened in this main event every time worda would get to the ground. Overeen would back away Did not want to engage on the ground How can you finish a guy if you once you get him down you don't you don't get on the ground I don't know was he expected to knock this cap clean out Hey, you know a silver who is who's gonna Antonio Silva not Not interested in silver Antonio Silva is who Overeen will face in the next round.
He's guaranteed He said I'm gonna win this whole thing, but he also beat Fedor in the first round I like Fedor as a bad man. I like the name of it is being called the strike force Grand Prix. I like that I mean and again wrong correct me if I'm wrong here But is there something else on the line in this tournament besides the belt because they announced Overeen as the champion Came out to two pox all lies on me Um, of course came out.
No, he didn't it was somebody else did it wasn't him But he came out over him came out with a flag over his shoulders. That was the Mavericks 2011 championship flag that he had backwards backwards You know your other semi-finalist former UFC champ Josh Barnett versus Sergey Kartinanov a kind of hope I'm in the ballpark on that But I will say I had a great time. They actually had another fight after showtime went off the air of two guys from the Houston area that And that fight was better than most of the fights that were televised But I will say had a great time.
I do it again in a heartbeat eight way too much in this in the sweet that night again Thank you, Andrew for that had a blast It was definitely different You know, it's kind of like going to see WWE live. You don't you? Of course.
Yeah, everything's a whole lot smaller scale and it's just you know Yeah, I don't know Michael Irving was there So they had to put him on the screen a couple of different times. That's cool. I was there.
I just I don't understand in this right here here Tuckenori Gami versus Nate DS slated for UFC 135 in Denver So we're already get side of the original either. Yeah, so we're already getting Matches set up for UFC 135 and just this thing moves fast It does definitely the fastest growing sport in America if you haven't checked it give it a chance. I did It's a lot of fun.

I was with you Um If you wanted 27 hours wwe had six hours of programming And in one thing I was see happy to see was I was glad to see the diva spelt move I don't know if that was necessarily a bad thing Yeah, I mean that was your first match was We're gonna have the diva's title Okay Which why didn't we do this last night? Yeah, I don't know a pay-per-view I was glad to see that like finally we finally got the belt away from from those people can I say something right now?
Don't ever tempt me people chat room Because I'll do it That's what we were doing last night New diva's champ one Kelly Kelly finally gets the diva's belt I know they had the divas on Twitter. They were lobbying vote for me vote for me Not that was a little little forced little strange And your theory almost blown was We were this close to my theory that Sin Cara and Evan born of the same person We were this close to that that completely view but you know what we found out today that there's something had gone wrong with the voting system And Sin Cara was supposed to be in that match But so what what it W.W. We do they went to some chat room on dot com and whatever people were saying the majority of those people at least they tried to do at least they try to do something with it So I mean and much respect to Mason Ryan for getting in there and improvising to make a match out of it But that was just kind of weird for me to read today.
Why would you even release that? Just go. Yeah, that was that's what people voted for there you go Well, I think they're trying to make this as legit as an angle as possible I've noticed this too.
I'm glad you did Do we is it time to turn the miss because I was seeing he was getting a lot of face heat last night It was crazy to me as you know the miss hits the ring during the Christian art truth Exchange Where is it there it is crowd starting to chant awesome awesome awesome, which I was like I was like okay, but can you turn him? You almost already have Instead of what people are going really I mean, I just I just don't know what they can do with him without that belt Interested to see it. I mean, I'm kind of what they're dealing is I like the miss I think I think the miss is very very well versed on the mic In the ring he's good like to seem do a little bit of different stuff I think towards the end of the match he starts doing the same stuff skull foot crushing finale to me great finish speaking of finishers Can we and I just I know I think every generation has these guys are we trying to make the RKO into the stunner and the diamond cutter All of a sudden we're all of a sudden you get hit with that niche church isn't the RKO the stunner or we are okay It's kind of much the diamond cutter anyway.
I just when I sound like okay. He's gonna and then I Didn't thought in the main event. I did think that our truth sold the RKO better than anybody It was it was really really good.
I thought that uh I Thought that the triple threat was better than it had to be And like I said our truth can Triple threat that was a six man. Well the triple. I said triple threat the the six man elimination That was a decent match.
It wasn't terrible. You knew it wasn't gonna be a 20 minute time I'm in there doing this at quarter to 10 and you knew who was gonna win. Oh, I said during the match I said scene is gonna eliminate everybody else.
I thought CM Punk was going to interfere Who I'm we're gonna talk about him. Yeah, I did think that too. I did think that but the dance contest was dumb Oh my god, I don't know that was a total time waste time filler The only thing I'll give the dance contest Did Vicki quote sable For all the men that you're gonna see me and all the women that want to be me and what Then there was that I I mean you talk about this was a three hour show Well if you if you don't have enough to fill three hours.
Don't do a three hour show. I don't know what There's so much space filler in that raw What are we doing? I'm like that.
I just the only thing on USA right now. Yeah, no direction It it the book to me. I don't know who has it, but take it away from but the But probably to me the only thing that came out of this evening as Your number one contender is one CM punk, which I did not see loving I didn't like the the open segment.
I thought was great. There were some online Twitter online rumors on Twitter that he was gonna announce his retirement on Monday night um I agree with your text who in the hell did Del Rio piss off? What are we doing with Alberto Del Rio right now?
We're just burying him and I don't understand I really did not expect CM punk to win that match because As we've talked about on this show for weeks His contract is up the day after summer slam, but we find out last night That might be part of the work too But he's saying that his last show is now going to be money on that and shit. We're at what town is that it Chicago? We are in his home town.
I think I have a sneaking suspicion Auro Wings did a same similar angle with CM punk back in 2005. I think this thing is a total work You think he's resigned? I put that I think they put the belt on him.
He's the top heel in the business Debate it You're not going to hear it for me. I think CM punk should be without triple H work in heel. Yeah, I think CM punk's the top heel in the business That's just that could be that's my opinion on the whole thing.
I think they put the belt on him It's not gonna hurt anybody. Yeah, if John Cena goes six weeks that I have in the title nobody's gonna die Also, you have I have a well up addicted WrestleMania to WrestleMania and I've also heard rumors They're wanting to do Del Rio and Cena at summer slam Do we wait and put it on a made on Del Rio at a major is that too little too late at that point though? No as much as you're very I'm glad I think they've handled in the right way.
I always fear the monster push They made that mistake with CM punk and Cody Rose. Yeah You they pushed the heck out of some of these guys and when they Randy or IE see the Randy Orton playbook. Randy Orton's peaked You said that on this show and the Orton as a monumental wrestler that was 10 years ago wow But next week what you thought was gonna happen last night is actually going to happen next week as we are in Las Vegas Nevada for raw and raw roulette returns which to me is one of the biggest failures ever Not there yet.
I'm not there just in what could pass this has me nervous because see then we find out Okay, we're gonna do raw roulette. We're in Vegas blah blah blah and then we see this thing hit the screen As Sean Michaels returns the Monday night raw next week because he's not retired Here's my thing. Here's me here.
You know why this don't you know what it is He's pushing that new outdoor show. Yeah, Vince is gonna give him free pub, but what scares me What was the picture of him they showed on raw? He had gear on Allana he was not he had wrestling gear on in the deal and I was like so Chad thinks that shameless peaked and catered quicker sure did there's another one There's another one.
I don't think he's peaked. I think he went on a monster pushing and crashed But I don't think he's peaked yet. Yeah, but that's one thing.
I think they're handling the deal Rio situation Correctly is there not just pushing him down people's throat where there might be some There might be some situation where he can have a monumental He can have a WrestleMania moment and it not be three months with the company Maybe he needs a year maybe next WrestleMania We do that bit in my opinion, but CM Punk mark it down. I think he wins it. That's just my opinion Given one more run and then resigning Yeah, if he really hasn't resigned already is that what you're saying?
That's what I'm saying I enjoy CM Punk. I Agree or disagree. I still think he's won the top heels in the business So It's just seeming to just get you all riled up that day, but that is roll top But not not you know, it's gonna get there.
It's gonna get there You just to me. I don't think a little I just don't think John Cena on vacations gonna kill anybody That's all I'm saying that's all I'm just don't think John Cena being gone for three months is gonna kill the product I just And brought you a three rating last night. I'm bad.
I'm still looking for Byrate numbers on capital punishment those have not been published yet may not ever will be Well, we saw our earlier that over the limit was almost the worst by rate ever Ever I mean to be able to say ever I'm gonna say this and end it To me the 14 14 pay-per-view per year this isn't 1997 It's not Monday night wars to me. You've got it in that. It's just not there anymore The business the money the fans the fans aren't there anymore They're down there watching the octagon do their do their thing.
Yeah, the the audience does not justify 14 pay-per-views a year It doesn't but part of it's also the product You know you have seen can do a brand new one every other week and nobody's gonna that complain because you're at least more often Do not you're going to get You're gonna get a decent card. Yeah, I'll go that if you would give me a decent card more often than not then yeah Do one every week I don't care But if you're gonna put out what you put out in your last two pay-per-views And you're gonna do 14 of those a year then I have an issue in let's be honest the way home We said was WrestleMania in that great If you sit down and if you take the rock off that card, it's horrible in my opinion. Yeah Let's go to the diamond.
That's good to see a little a little bit of America's past time Major League Baseball as you all know in full swing It's your only professional sports you got going right now people no pun intended Major League Baseball is it till hope to God NFL preseason. So this is it your only professional sport going Big news coming out of the St. Louis area as Albert pull-host fractures his left forum on Monday in a win It against Kansas City MRI revealed it was broken will be out four to six weeks my question to you And there are wonderful people in the chat room listening around the globe How does this affect this big huge eight eight year 30 million dollar monstrous 300 million on our contract this cat was wanting I'll tell you Unless he comes back and just lights the world on fire Well, I've I heard Tony Gwynne describe this injury to the morning and he said it's one of the toughest power hitters Never get the power back with this injury people say where this is broken it It's part of the risk where it would hold the butt of the bat.
Oh gee And they say power hitter sometime struggle recovering from this injury because of where it's broken I'm gonna tell you this as a as a as a cardinal fan of the room john And I know St. Luke play first about the name Albert pull-hosts on it So yeah, St. Louis will miss Albert in the middle of that lineup So Lance Berkman.
Yes, having a great season. I think somebody gets stupid with Albert You do I think we see how bad luck on the yield Most most great teams have a dynasty will unless you're the Dodgers But most to me with all that is It's just too much to me. That's get close to what Cliffly wanted I don't know if he's worked that but This little news broke and is it affects your neck of the woods.
Yeah Marlin's manager Edwin Rodriguez out and we bring back 97-year-old world series winning manager Jack McKeehan Who that sits one of their guys that just came back from injury because he said one risk. Well, it's ready I don't know I think Florida's got a I think Florida to me. I think Florida's got a little squad on them Do you in my opinion?
I think Florida's got a little squad on them in my opinion I don't know if that's agreeance or not, but I think they've got a fairly decent decent group under them I don't know if the the crotchety old school managers the way to go Now in my opinion We continue on Let's talk about this realignment story Well, you know, we've been talking a lot about the realignment story the realignment angle that or passage angle Major League Baseball has been tweaking with the idea of possibly doing A realignment a lot of people have heard of wanting to move the Houston Astros to the American League I I've got a I think that's a great idea. I think more importantly, you've got to get the Rangers out of the AL West In my opinion, weren't you gonna put them in the central? I don't know what you have to do with them in my opinion I think the central is the only place they fit But don't you have a ton of teams in the central right now?
Yeah, well, please here's my deal. I think here's here's here's just a real quick plan two leagues 15 teams each no divisions five teams make the playoffs But now you've got an odd number though, so you have you know 30 and 30 30 and 30 Yeah, but five teams into playoffs. You're gonna five teams.
That's odd. Somebody gets a first round by so you're so your best record in the in the lead gets a first round So yeah to me that's I it's it's not dumb I think the cons to that would be would you wouldn't have your rivalry games more frequent the Yankees and Red Sox right now Play 18 games a year with that format. They play closely to 10 or 12 games this season Compared to what they do now So let's go ahead and do standings Here in Major League Baseball.
Yeah, standings is the the start in the AL as usual the AL East Boston with a game and a half over New York Uh, four and a half over Tampa nine and Toronto in Baltimore. They're slipping again. They've gone 10 back in the east Over in the central division Cleveland now one game ahead of Detroit five and a half up on Chicago as I'm gonna say I think that seats getting hot for Aussie Geon right now Minnesota has climbed back seven and a half back as Kansas City goes back to their normal spot These seller dwellers central as they're in a half back of Cleveland In the west is a sea owl mariners might be the story of the first half as they're just one game back of division leading Texas followed by Anaheim and Oakland so the the AL West just has a few Few games separating each other in my just my opinion So that could be a thing that gets Shakey down the stretch.
It's early. We'll see in the east Philadelphia now for up on Atlanta Florida falls 13 out of first place the Mets at 10 St. Louis now just a half game ahead of Milwaukee and Cincinnati two and a half back The Pittsburgh Pirates two games below 500 and that's it and over in the west San Francisco leads Arizona by only half a game Colorado by three and the LA Dodgers probably one of the biggest stories in sports right now They are seven in the game seven games back in the AL West in L.
West excuse me And the big story coming out of major league baseball or actually I might say yeah the George Lopez show is Mark Cuban last night was yeah Mark Cuban rumored wanting to buy the Los Angeles Dodgers Apparently today. I saw Twitter a little while ago. He said I'll buy if I Or is that just a quote to me to me the commissioners already said Mark Cuban to me.
He's made it all clear Mark Cuban's not welcome major league baseball and that's just the way it is I don't but if you're the league do you want to take on the Dodgers or would you just ride the light somebody that wants it buy it and roll with it Maybe I don't know. I think the Dodgers are one of those teams like the Yankees like the Red Sox that have some some usefulness to it in my opinion and I think Mark Cuban would if he could buy the Dodgers and it's not just gonna be a Huge huge burden on him I wouldn't I wouldn't think it'd be too big of a gamble for them for him to do it Why not yeah, I'd let him so you breathe a little life into that league too That is and that you know what that's major league baseball talk tonight So not really much going on really much going on getting into that low before the all-star brand yeah ran through some stand some standings and stuff like that so I do want to talk a little NFL with you real quick Let me do that for you right as that thing has looks like that's getting some legs As there's been but it's a roller coaster. Yeah, it really there's been some things released in the deal That now the players will get here's the deal propose CBA details.
Okay Players get 40% of all revenue they were getting almost 60 right But that was because the owners were getting one billion off the top Teams required to spend close to 100% of their salary cap Rookie rates rookie wage scale right now is still part of the deal but still being tweaked Okay, four years needed for unrestricted free agent status certain tags will be retained but still being discussed 18 game regular season designated only as negotiable item at this point. It's not in this deal To me and I said this on the show to me the 18 game schedule to me might be dead To me it might it might be null and void as long as they say negotiable I'm still kind of okay with it full 16 game Thursday night TV package beginning in 2014. So let's say that again Starting in 2014 you're gonna have NFL every Thursday night for the entire regular every Thursday night you you will have an NFL game um So yeah, and I don't know if I'm against that as I enjoyed the Thursday night in a college football game So it's gonna be interfering with that Absolutely your college you're a little hacked right now Owners still get some expense credits that will allow them allow funding for new stadiums And here's another big one retirees to benefit from improved health care pension benefits as revenue projected to double by 18 million She's legal make 18 million more dollars by 2016 to me it proves my point this golden goose was too golden to me to strangle So you still think we're gonna be something I think we I think to me mid July I say July 8th for agency July 15 and it's gonna be hot and heavy and I think we report I think we report to some sense of a training camp on time and we kick off Timber the 8th in Green Bay All I know is Friday they had to cut the meeting short because and we get the lawyers out of the room because things were about to get Followed well, they have a structure and that's the thing used for a while there There was no structure and deal nobody knew what was going on I think we've got some structure in the deal when we kind of see what's going on with it Also though in one of the things holding this up is the bills bangles and cardinals feel like they want a baseball type structure Like with the Yankees and the Red Sox do when they cut a big check to the royals or they could a big check to the pirates They're wanting some money trickle down in the league that's not going to happen.
That's not part of this deal So NFL that that's really about it But the there is a CBA we are getting bits and pieces of what's been proposed For the current collecting bargaining agreement that they're wanting to to put forth we'll see how that whole thing goes We'll get into a little bit of TV news right now As we talk about the other big I guess you could call it a celebrity death That came down early Monday morning Ryan done from jackass this is a really weird Almost a convoluted situation Before before his death There were there were pictures being tweeted of him party and yeah He was driving 110 miles an hour and hit a tree That's not the only thing that killed him It was the ensuing car fire apparently the only way they were I did able to identify his remains were by tattoos That were distinguishable on his body Roger Ebert sends out a tweet. I saw that tweet when it happened Because they're not alleging DUI of any form just yet But Roger Ebert sends out a tweet that says friends don't let jackasses drink and drive Caused a huge up with Facebook took down his page For a while now he can't talk or What's his he he can I He's had a big chunk of his jaw removed. I don't have you seen any pictures of him recently you wouldn't recognize it.
No A lot of people are saying too soon. I this whole situation to me until I hear more details I'm staying as if if I'm anybody else in the in the In in the industry. I am staying as far away from this situation as possible until we have more details thoughts You know, I wasn't a fan of of of that show the jackass show I don't know I know what it's about.
Of course Johnny Knoxville's guys. Uh-huh A lot of people entertain it a lot of people like the guys what seems like this is a loss I just think with this social networking thing you just gotta be careful what you put on these things And we've seen that in sports. Yeah, we've seen it in inner all kinds of stuff It's just you there's guys at some point I mean, especially as somebody in the media you know better I thought that was a weird deal But we do I mean the best of his family you never want to lose a family member especially in that and that matter That's a rough deal Ending TV news on a more positive note as we talk about Cody's favorite show Yeah, why 5.0 adding a casting member this season Tario Quinn from lost.
He's the old guy on lost A lot of people thought maybe he was going to replace Lawrence fishburn on CSI. We know now that's not gonna happen Same network different night different show. He will play a navy seal who is a guy to train Steve McGarrett You're on board with this Yeah, I just I just don't know where this show goes from its current situation You know, that's you know that that now apparently we were killing somebody in the season finale how that go We didn't do that.
We didn't know so I don't know yeah, but it's it's a great show I'm just I'm ready to kind of get some they went into rerun for so long it seemed like the one with Sean Was was very cool. Peep up. Did he daddy down very cool But I think that street light just come on street light is on yes, and it is time for the list You know as we did if you listen to NFL talk if not please please please jump on it in the archive any of them show you missed tonight Absolutely we were talking about work stoppages.
I made a top 10 sports Worst work stoppages ever We'll start at number 10 the 1972 MLB strike which didn't lot this was the first strike in American professional sports really so it was that that kind of shocks me that it took that long for Americans 1972 was the first one It didn't last it didn't last very long 13 days It was a lot over free agency at that time George Steinbrenner was beginning to take over the league at this point in time Owners agreed to five hundred thousand dollar increased in pension fund payments The players are not paid for the misgames but gained it right right gain back money through salary arbitration arbitration started in 1972 okay to this current when 2011 NFL lockout to me This thing's gone we're in we will be in triple digits on Thursday on Thursday wow This thing to me is gone too long and a lot of it is this is a I've said earlier This is a golden goose. Why are we arguing over money? This is a huge business.
Absolutely huge business Why are we trying to kill it another strike 1981 MLB strike this will been 50 days This is another situation a far off arbitration in money This a 1996 soccer strike Went two days now. How does this rank this high on the list though for today's strike because Italian soccer for that took It was a lot about money and they were trying to separate from the European league Did that happen? It did not okay 1997 NFL strike 24 days boy.
I remember this this is the one where you had Joe Montana and Randy white and Tony Dorsett actually jumped the picket That's why this thing only went 24 days the players actually broke the picket on this one It went 24 days didn't last long boomerah siasons another guy that walked that's the one where he tried to lay in front of the bus or something An old coach said get your rear end. He didn't say that but you go in there and you start practicing 1999 1994 NHL lockout 104 days 48 game season down from 84 this was another thing where the league didn't feel like they were making a lot of money They locked the players out 1982 NFL strike 57 days went from a nine game season to a 16 game Other season but from 16 did not flopped it um this one here was weird because you you had nine games in an NFL season Which we talked about this last week. Do you really celebrate a championship when there's nine and I kind of thought That's what we were headed towards this year could still be yeah 1998 NFL lockout 191 day short and season in the San Antonio Spurs defeated the New York Knicks.
Let me tell you something That was I think that was eventually in NBA trying to deal with post Jordan 50 days 50 games down from 82 This is where I lost a lot of faith in the NBA that I'm starting to gain back But then they're big to do yeah, yeah, and now it's gonna happen again exactly To me the 98 NBA lockout was to me was the league trying to figure out what we do post Jordan in my opinion 2004 NHL law NHL lockout 310 days canceled season this killed hockey in the United States of America and it was the repeat season for the Tampa Bay like yes to me The oh four strike and that was literally in lockout the cancellation of the oh four season to me Killed hockey in America. Yeah, and I'll never you can't debate me on that. I believe it That's what killed hockey in America and number one baseball just now beginning to get out of the shadow of the 1994 strike canceled season 232 days To me the league to it took a lot of years to leave to recover from that strike I think they lost a lot of fans and I think nothing benefited more than a national football league from the 94 major league baseball strike That's the show and the pendulum swings back to me for next week It is time for us to wrap this thing up.
