Speaker 10s - 7.8s

A radio show host called Paul Galant PERSON. It's Galant PERSON. That's a G-Go and George.

Speaker 58.02s - 12.84s

Thanks, Joe PERSON. Yeah. On ESPN 97-5 and 92-5 CARDINAL.

Speaker 112.94s - 18s

Live from the Veritex Community Bank Studios ORG. Here's Paul Galant and Joe George PERSON.

Speaker 320.38s - 34.44s

Well, it's a day that ends in Y, which means the Astros ORG lost the baseball game. They lost 9 to 4 last night to the New York Yankees ORG. It was closer. Oh, yeah. Moral victory Thursdays on Galant and George.

Speaker 234.44s - 36.86s

Kyle Tucker has a two-game home run streak.

Speaker 337.02s - 50.2s

I did not see the Astros ORG tweet about that. Oh, wait. They did. They tweeted after the home run by Kyle Tucker that he's leading the American League ORG in home runs.

Speaker 050.2s - 55.8s

Yeah, Joe PERSON, that did not age well, but you got to take the little victories where you can't.

Speaker 355.88s - 57.94s

Well, Kyle Tucker hit another home run tonight.

Speaker 059.26s - 60.22s

If he does.

Speaker 360.38s - 61.08s

It means they lose.

Speaker 262.02s - 69.34s

Well, I don't know about that. But if he does, I mean, you got to take the moral victories. Hey. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

Speaker 370.34s - 74.66s

I think we're in sprint mode, Paul PERSON. I think I'm done with the marathon.

Speaker 275s - 76.26s

Joe PERSON, it's still too early.

Speaker 376.4s - 82.86s

Have you ever run a marathon before? No, no, no. Have you ever run a marathon before? No, and I never will. I never will either. Maybe a half.

Speaker 283.54s - 86.62s

I wouldn't even do that. I might do a 5K someday.

Speaker 386.8s - 87.68s

I could do a 5K.

Speaker 287.8s - 90.46s

But hey, you got to pace yourself on all of those things.

Speaker 390.46s - 95.6s

Yeah, I watched that bozo Jerry PERSON after dark. From Barstool ORG.

Speaker 295.72s - 100.38s

He ran a marathon on a treadmill. He was complaining about his calves like less than a mile in.

Speaker 3100.54s - 103.48s

It took him. Wouldn't go well. A long time.

Speaker 2103.48s - 125.1s

So are the Astros ORG complaining about their feet, their planter fasciitis? Apparently it's their back because Ryan Presley PERSON's hurt. Well, that's his lower half, Joe PERSON. His lower half is sore. I'm assuming that means like his back. Well, your back is your upper half, Joe PERSON.Well, it could be like your lower back. Lower half? I don't know. Listen, maybe your body is shaped differently than everybody else's. It's like a hockey injury. Well, it could be like your lower back. Lower half? I don't know.

Speaker 3125.28s - 144.06s

Maybe your body is shaped differently than everybody else is. It's like a hockey injury. Like in hockey, if you don't know this, one day you'll learn because they'll have hockey teams here in Houston GPE. They do upper body and lower body injuries.You can have like, you can have like the worst concussion of all time and they just say upper body. That's how you can get back on the ice.

Speaker 2144.34s - 186.26s

Those guys are psychos. Yeah, they just go upper body, lower body injuries. So's how you can get back on the ice yeah those guys are psychos yeah they just go upper body lower body injury so Ryan presley has a lower body injury lower half injury it really is just groundhog day Joe PERSON I mean there's anotherpitcher injured you could not do anything with runners in scoring position I believe the official numbers are you were eight left on base and two for 11 with runners in scoring position.It's not good. And the starter allowed five runs in the first three innings for the first time this season, Juan Soto, Aaron Judge, and John Carlos Stanton PERSON hit a home run in the same game. They all did it off off of Spencer PERSON, ediganti.

Speaker 3187.8s - 202.12s

Yeah, he's not good. He's fine. He's fine. He's not, he's a 4A pitcher right now. He's just a baby.Yeah, he's not the worst picture I've ever seen. We've seen those this season. Is he all right? He who shall not be named because I don't want to bully him today.

Speaker 2202.24s - 207.34s

Who? Who do you want to bully? There's so many options and I almost feel, Joe PERSON, that we should show mercy.

Speaker 3207.54s - 208.52s

Yeah, that's why I'm not.

Speaker 2208.52s - 209.76s

We're punching down with this.

Speaker 3209.76s - 210.84s

That's why I'm not mentioning his name.

Speaker 2211.4s - 212.36s

But you should say it now.

Speaker 3212.76s - 213.5s

What's his name?

Speaker 2213.66s - 214.88s

Blair Henley.

Speaker 3215.8s - 239.56s

Of course you, the man is dead. Joe has gone back three times to pee on his grave. I'm just saying his career is over. You killed it, Joe PERSON. He's not Blair Henley PERSON, but he's not,uh, Christian Javier PERSON. I don't know. Like, I don't even know like a good version of this. But another,another bad game. Like Kyle Tucker, great. Awesome. Once again, but like Jose Out Tube PERSON,0 for 2 with runners in scoring position with less than two outs last night.

Speaker 4239.62s - 241.52s

Mm-hmm. Even though your,

Speaker 3241.52s - 267.52s

your pitching staff is not getting the job done, the offense is still, still a problem. It's, there's no, there's no glimmer job done, the offense is still a problem. There's no glimmer of hope. You're eight and a half games out of first place. You're a game and a half out of second to last place in the division right now. I mean, you've lost four straight games.You're 12 and 24. You play the Yankees today again at 4 o'clock with Blanco on the mound. He's been your stopper. Like if you want to find some kind of like,

Speaker 2267.52s - 270.22s

Oh my God. Hope.

Speaker 3271.12s - 273.24s

Listen to the way you just said, hope.

Speaker 2273.92s - 275.26s

I mean, I'm wired today.

Speaker 3275.58s - 280.6s

I was like, I knew I was going to be, it was a long night last night. Long night, what did you do? He just wouldn't.

Speaker 2281s - 292.5s

The boy? Little dude wouldn't sleep just for, he woke up at like 1 o'clock in the morning like he was 8 o'clock in the morning. Hmm. He was ready to go. So I got some Turkish coffee today. So we went with like the Turkish NORP coffee.Yeah.

Speaker 4292.6s - 293.08s

What's that?

Speaker 2294s - 295.5s

Very concentrated coffee.

Speaker 4295.68s - 296.98s

Oh, I was wondering if it was stiff.

Speaker 2297.48s - 302.64s

No. Okay. Gotcha. Wasn't sure. No, it's not stiff coffee. Okay.It's good coffee.

Speaker 4302.72s - 305.32s

That's cool. It sounds good. Lots of caffeine. But yeah, not, not good for the Ast. Okay. It's good coffee. That's cool. It sounds good. Lots of Caffeine.

Speaker 3306.4s - 308.28s

But yeah, not good for the Astros ORG.

Speaker 0308.34s - 314.58s

Just another loss. I don't really. Let's play our new favorite game. I think this might have to be a new staple on the show.

Speaker 3315.5s - 316.98s

When did you turn the game off last night?

Speaker 2317.7s - 320.04s

Oh, well, funny story.

Speaker 3320.24s - 321.26s

Oh, it didn't get turned on.

Speaker 2321.36s - 323.88s

I told you that I went to Chili's ORG with my buddies.

Speaker 3324.22s - 328.36s

So we're sitting at the table. The Chili Boys, five of the seven had assembled.

Speaker 2328.46s - 328.96s

It was great.

Speaker 3329.06s - 330.48s

One of them's working in Algeria GPE.

Speaker 4330.56s - 348.5s

The other one's working in Singapore GPE. So to see everybody at the table at the same time was really awesome. And as we're sitting there, we're looking up at the TV where the Astros ORG are already trailing. And we got there at about 715. We told our waiter multiple times, hey, can you change the channel to the Knicks Pacers ORG game?

Speaker 3348.72s - 355.34s

And we asked for this four times. And I'm not hating on the waiter. The waiter had a bunch of tables. It was a busy night at Chili's yesterday.

Speaker 0355.88s - 359.3s

But I watched more of that game than I would have liked to.

Speaker 4359.5s - 366s

I saw enough of that game to see more damage happening to the Astros ORG, who I believe when I sat down,

Speaker 0366.08s - 370.42s

were down five to one. I had paid no attention to it and sitting down seeing that it was

Speaker 4370.42s - 376.2s

five to one. I was like, what did I expect? And here's what's even worse, Joe PERSON. So I went to college

Speaker 0376.2s - 383.86s

in central New York, Syracuse University. I went to college with a lot of Yankee ORG fans. And it's

Speaker 3383.86s - 394.46s

been fun the last seven years. Honestly, I'm sure it has. It's been fun for pretty much my entire adult life as far as being an a-hole to Yankee ORG fans.

Speaker 2394.86s - 426.98s

First, as a Red Sox fan, 2004, it doesn't matter if the Yankees have 27 rings. You can throw that at them forever. But since I've converted to Astros ORG fandom, the upper hand has been had all the time. But my buddy, Brian, text me at 756, unprompted.I love so much that the Astros ORG suck. And then he starts telling me about how the Yankees ORG could be better. And I'm like, I don't want to read this. He's like, well, you know, when Garrett Cole PERSON comes back, we're going to be even better. I'm like, I don't want to hear. This is what ruins, well, you know, when Garrett Cole PERSON comes back, we're going to be even better. I'm like, I don't want to hear.

Speaker 3427.18s - 428.38s

This is what ruins friendships.

Speaker 2428.88s - 430.14s

I mean, it doesn't even ruin friendships.

Speaker 3430.44s - 436.7s

The worst moment between me and Brian were right after the Patriots lost Super Bowl 42 EVENT.

Speaker 2437.08s - 441.24s

He knocked on my door with a big smile on his face wearing a Lawrence Taylor Giants ORG jersey.

Speaker 3441.5s - 444.76s

I was wearing my Randy Moss Patriots jersey, and I grabbed the Clementine Orange PRODUCT,

Speaker 0444.88s - 449.56s

and I threw it as hard as I could at him, and I slammed the door in his face. Yeah.

Speaker 2450.04s - 451.48s

But this is...

Speaker 3451.48s - 457.14s

Well, I mean, listen, it's an orange. He knew it was coming. It was like a, it was a playful orange throw.

Speaker 2457.44s - 459.26s

Well, let's go back to before the game started.

Speaker 3459.46s - 464.08s

Yeah. Were you surprised to see... We talked about the lineup changes yesterday. Potentially they were coming.

Speaker 0464.18s - 468.62s

Dana Brown hinted at it, said it was Joe Spada's PERSON responsibility or his decision yesterday

Speaker 2468.62s - 482.84s

morning. And then when the lineup came out shortly after our show ended yesterday, Alex Bregman was batting six with Jeremy Payne and the four hole. We've already got a text here asking why he's in the four hole. He shouldn't be. He should be batting second.I don't know.

Speaker 3482.94s - 483.98s

I mean, he did well last night.

Speaker 2483.98s - 484.52s

He did do well.

Speaker 3484.58s - 484.74s

Right.

Speaker 2484.8s - 485.98s

He had three hits on a home run.

Speaker 3486.14s - 486.34s

Yeah.

Speaker 2487s - 488.34s

Honestly. So it probably does.

Speaker 3488.5s - 488.64s

Yeah.

Speaker 2488.82s - 519.9s

That's the first lineup change that's made any sense. Because, I mean, if you take a look at the numbers, which I looked at after the game, the big bats were two for 19. You know, Kyle Tucker, who had the home run, Jose Altova, who's the Yankeeses's daddy, and plus another 04 for Yordon Alvarez PERSON, and the guy you haven't even mentioned yet. Yeah, Alex Bergman back in sixth. That makes sense.It's a bit of a bummer, Joe PERSON, that it happens right after Dana Brown PERSON's getting asked about it on the radio.

Speaker 3520.28s - 521.08s

Yeah, it's a...

Speaker 2521.08s - 523.2s

I don't know if that's just coincidence.

Speaker 3523.52s - 526.86s

It felt like it was more than a coincidence.

Speaker 2527.14s - 532.7s

Like Dana Brown PERSON kind of let the cat out of the bag and then it was, hey, we're going to make this.

Speaker 3533.22s - 534.38s

We're going to make a change here.

Speaker 2535.1s - 537.02s

Or he just, he knew it was coming.

Speaker 3537.38s - 539.02s

It doesn't feel like a total coincidence.

Speaker 2539.86s - 540.98s

I agree with you there.

Speaker 3541.86s - 543.6s

It almost feels reactive.

Speaker 2544.18s - 548.24s

And if there's been anything that the Astros have been this year, it's been reactive.

Speaker 0548.24s - 551.04s

Josh Hader signing after Kendall Graveman PERSON got hurt.

Speaker 2551.78s - 556.46s

And I may be grasping at straws here, but that interview happened.

Speaker 0556.6s - 558.76s

And we had yet to see Bregman PERSON move down in the lineup.

Speaker 4558.94s - 565.24s

And Joe Spada PERSON, when asked about moving him down in the lineup, said that he wasn't even thinking about moving him down.

Speaker 0565.5s - 567.18s

Now all of a sudden he moves him down.

Speaker 2567.32s - 576.72s

Yeah. Look, I'm not sure that this is happening, but it does kind of feel like the Astros ORG are caving to a little bit of public pressure on top of sucking.

Speaker 3578.3s - 605.7s

I'm not sure if it's the public pressure. I have two theories on this. Either yours, and it could be that, where they're kind of caving a little bit, or two, Dana Brown PERSON continues to lie through his teeth. And when he goes on the radio and says it's Joe Espada's PERSON decision,what he really means is I told Joe Espada PERSON, it's time to move Alex Bregman PERSON down in the lineup. And I'm telling you guys, it's Joe Espada's PERSON decision, so you can talk about Joe making this move. Okay. But in reality, it's Joe Espada's PERSON decision so you can, you can talk about

Speaker 2605.7s - 610.44s

Joe making this move. Okay. But in reality, it's Dana Brown PERSON calling the shots here a little bit.

Speaker 3610.44s - 615.34s

Or it could be a little bit further up where it's Jim Crane telling Dana Brown telling Joe Espada PERSON.

Speaker 2615.44s - 618.84s

And that's what Jeremy Booth's theory is, is that it's not Dana Brown. It's not Joe Espada PERSON,

Speaker 3618.94s - 623.2s

basically making any of these decisions. I mean, this is. I think Jeremy PERSON would know because

Speaker 2623.2s - 626.02s

Jeremy is part of the GM ORG cognizanti,

Speaker 3626.16s - 649.04s

even if perhaps he has some opinions that rub some the wrong way. He knows people that are in the industry. That's the sense that I get right now. I guess it's kind of like an office space, the constant like feedback down the of the TPS ORG reports. When are you going to get your TPS ORG reports?When are you going to move Alex Breggman PERSON down in the lineup? Yeah. I don't know that are you going to get your TPS reports? When are you going to move Alex Breggman PERSON down in the lineup? Yeah. I don't know that it's going to change anything.

Speaker 2650.44s - 657.22s

I don't know if this was Will Conkel's version of teaching Alex Breggman PERSON a lesson. Like he seemed like he wanted the Texans ORG too.

Speaker 0657.3s - 680.54s

But there was a good tweet where he listed all the things that Alex Regman PERSON has been doo-doo at this year. His batting average 1.80. Among third baseman, 189 is last. His 268 on base percentage is second to last. His slugging percentage, 252, is last.His OPS 520 is last. His one home run tied for last among third baseman.

Speaker 4680.54s - 683.92s

His 11 runs batted in tied for last among third basement.

Speaker 0684.34s - 691.62s

Minimum 97 at bats. This is Martine Maldonado PERSON territory. This is, I guess, north of Jose Ibrahim PERSON, your 24 territory.

Speaker 3692.66s - 692.84s

Oh.

Speaker 2693.84s - 696.02s

I mean, he's worse than Martin Maldonado this year.

Speaker 3697.44s - 697.88s

Honestly.

Speaker 2699.62s - 701.72s

Well, hang on.

Speaker 3701.76s - 703.36s

What is Maldonado PERSON batting right now?

Speaker 2703.88s - 708.64s

Alex Spurkman PERSON has a lower batting average on base percentage, slugging percentage, and OPS,

Speaker 3708.98s - 710.76s

then Martin Mollano finished within 2020.

Speaker 2710.92s - 711.22s

Oh, okay.

Speaker 3711.26s - 719.48s

We're talking about last year. I guess, yeah. What's 20, well, hang on, let's take our victories where we can get him. What's 24 Maldonado PERSON doing? Let me look. Let me pull up.

Speaker 2719.48s - 723.04s

I hope to God that Bregman is at least north of him this year.

Speaker 3723.56s - 726.82s

Because I've been starting to see some people online that are saying,

Speaker 0727.22s - 729.38s

well, what if they still had Dusty Baker PERSON?

Speaker 2730.4s - 733.3s

Which I don't think would be changing what's happening right now.

Speaker 3733.38s - 734.5s

Or what if they still had?

Speaker 2734.5s - 739.06s

He's better than Marchy Maldonado, who's hitting 0.098 this season.

Speaker 3739.4s - 739.66s

Good.

Speaker 4740.04s - 741.52s

We've got to take the little victory.

Speaker 2741.7s - 743.88s

He said his OBP is 154.

Speaker 4746.1s - 755.9s

It's not good. So Martin Malinot, not this year, but last year, Martin Malinado was better than Alex Bregman PERSON was. Alex Bregman is the new Martineau PERSON.

Speaker 2756.7s - 761.7s

He's filling Martinado PERSON's role of being a absolute terrible thing.

Speaker 3761.7s - 770.38s

Someone has to, right? Jose Ibray PERSON, who tried. Right. And they said, you? Jose Ibrahim PERSON tried. Right. And they said, you know what, Jose PERSON, we're going to let Alex be the new Martine Malinado PERSON of this team.

Speaker 2770.68s - 772.36s

We're going to send you to Florida GPE,

Speaker 3772.84s - 778.32s

which is the new, we send him to Belize to quote Breaking Bad WORK_OF_ART, which is code for.

Speaker 2779.78s - 780.22s

Whacked.

Speaker 3781.86s - 782.8s

Question here on the Twitch ORG.

Speaker 2782.86s - 784.28s

How do you drop off a cliff like that?

Speaker 3784.38s - 787s

I don't know. I don't know because this isn't...

Speaker 2787s - 788.86s

On purpose? This isn't Abraeu PERSON.

Speaker 3789.32s - 790.76s

A brayu is old.

Speaker 2790.98s - 806.46s

Well... Is Alex PERSON old? No, but what was Dana Brown's most recent explanation for Jose Abrae's PERSON struggles? Oh, the muscles. Too big. Yeah.What did Alex Spragman PERSON make a big show about talking about...

Speaker 3806.46s - 807.64s

He gained 25 pounds a summer.

Speaker 2807.76s - 808.08s

Oh.

Speaker 3808.34s - 808.8s

Of muscle.

Speaker 2809.16s - 813.68s

More gravity on your body faster from the cliff you fall.

Speaker 3813.92s - 815.6s

That speed slows down.

Speaker 2816.56s - 818.14s

Now you're the new Marti Maldonado PERSON.

Speaker 3818.32s - 818.56s

Yeah.

Speaker 2818.66s - 819.34s

Marti Maldonado PERSON.

Speaker 0819.52s - 820.44s

Also, too buff.

Speaker 2820.44s - 825.66s

I hope this quick Twitch camp in Florida GPE is really good.

Speaker 0825.9s - 830.12s

It has room for one more. Bregman PERSON might be joined. Please. Honestly?

Speaker 2830.96s - 838.56s

I mean, now, for Bregman PERSON, goodbye any contract. Yes. So. I don't think you would agree to it.

Speaker 0838.56s - 846.8s

I don't think you'd agree to it either. I think some other. Maybe you can trade them to Florida, like trade them to the Florida Marlins ORG, and they can try to figure it out.

Speaker 3846.8s - 862.9s

Okay. Before we, because we're going to kind of go to the Florida GPE thing here a little bit in the next segment, too, of what, how likely are these things to happen? Let's say the season ended today. And Scott Boris PERSON called you. And you're, and you were Jim Crane PERSON. And Sean, you can be Dana Brown PERSON.Okay.

Speaker 2863s - 868.02s

And I'll be Jeff Bagwell PERSON. All right, I'm Jim PERSON. And then I'll go out there and pull random people from the street.

Speaker 3868.1s - 880.18s

They can be Craig Biscchio or Reggie Jackson PERSON. You know, I'll be Reggie Jax PERSON. Oh, good. Scott Boris calls us and says, hey, no one wants Alex Bregman PERSON. How much would you give him on a one-year contract?

Speaker 2880.88s - 882.4s

Well, I'm the boss man, Jim Crane PERSON.

Speaker 3882.52s - 899.46s

And I'm going to offer a very high price of... Oh, really? Very high price, you know, taking a look at this production, of the veteran minimum. Okay. Because I'm Jim Crane PERSON and we have too much on the books. Dana Brown, aka Sean Mapes, how much are you giving Alex Breggman for a one-year contract?

Speaker 2899.46s - 908.66s

One second. I'm Googling minimum wage, Texas GPE. $7.25 an hour. It's. $7.25 an hour. It's still $7.25 an hour.

Speaker 3908.66s - 909.5s

I was going to say $5 million.

Speaker 2909.84s - 913.16s

I'm really like, I'm really overshooting it here a little bit.

Speaker 3913.46s - 914.92s

I think your minimum wage was $5.

Speaker 2914.92s - 915.82s

No, it's still $7.25.

Speaker 3916.16s - 918.42s

Damn, I guess Texas GPE has ignored inflation.

Speaker 2918.74s - 919s

Yeah.

Speaker 3920.2s - 921.26s

Shout out to you.

Speaker 2921.26s - 921.86s

They really have.

Speaker 3922.02s - 922.92s

That sucks.

Speaker 2923.08s - 929.08s

All right. How likely are these things to happen? Joe Espada PERSON getting fired. Data Brown PERSON getting fired. Someone else.

Speaker 1929.24s - 934.54s

Players getting sent to Florida to be sacrificial lambs like Jose Ibrahim PERSON.

Speaker 0934.54s - 937.64s

We'll do that next year on ESPN 975 and 925 PRODUCT.

Speaker 1938.84s - 957.14s

ESPN,.5. It's Galant and George.

Speaker 4957.3s - 960.8s

On ESPN 975 and 925 ORG.

Speaker 5961.1s - 964.32s

Broadcasting live from the Veritex Community Bank Studios ORG.

Speaker 1964.78s - 967.34s

Here's Paul Galant and Joe George PERSON.

Speaker 5968.06s - 971.44s

Eric PERSON, the driver texting, he says since they've officially lost the series,

Speaker 1971.56s - 973.08s

I'm officially giving up on them.

Speaker 3973.28s - 984.84s

They don't look like they care, so why should we? Yeah. I feel you, Eric PERSON. We're going to get some advice later on, on what you should do this summer.

Speaker 2984.84s - 985.56s

Instead, right? We might have to get into advice later on on what you should do this summer. Instead, right.

Speaker 3985.72s - 989.96s

We might have to get into the countdown a little more quickly.

Speaker 2990.26s - 990.44s

Yeah.

Speaker 3990.76s - 1004.14s

We might have to create a watching club. I don't think any of us are booky enough for a book club. Yeah, no. But, like, June's going to be great. We have the Akelete PRODUCT coming out, which I'm really excited about.

Speaker 21004.14s - 1004.8s

I'm not watching that.

Speaker 31004.92s - 1005.42s

Oh, you're not? No, no, no. It looks too to be great. We have the Akelyte PRODUCT coming out, which I'm really excited about. I'm not watching that. Oh, you're not?

Speaker 21005.58s - 1006.18s

No, no, no.

Speaker 31006.22s - 1011.04s

Looks too woke, dude. I'm sorry. Like, how, like, the Sith NORP were born? You don't want to watch that?

Speaker 21011.04s - 1016.58s

I don't know. I saw the trailer and I was like, Star Wars, Star Wars WORK_OF_ART has been whiffing a lot recently.

Speaker 31016.68s - 1030.36s

That's fair. I hated Obi-Wan PERSON. I was so disappointed. Oh, it was awful. I really hated it. Have you seen the, have you watched the, it's on YouTube, the super cut of, they just took all the Vader and Obi-Wan PERSON scenes.Those were good.

Speaker 21030.36s - 1035.14s

And they put it on one, like, they made it like an hour-long movie, basically. I didn't see that.

Speaker 31035.32s - 1037.46s

It makes the show look incredible.

Speaker 21037.7s - 1039.2s

There were too many characters.

Speaker 31039.42s - 1048.38s

The Asoka PERSON show was at least interesting, but the guy who I liked the most, the actor passed away. Oh, that was such a problem. I think I forget his last name, but

Speaker 21048.38s - 1050.06s

Ray Stevenson PERSON. Yeah.

Speaker 31050.18s - 1057.3s

Yeah, he was Pulo in Rome GPE. He was so good in that show. We have Acolyte WORK_OF_ART, if you want to watch it. We have House of the Dragons WORK_OF_ART.

Speaker 21057.54s - 1064.2s

That I'm in on. We have the boys. The boys, I'm very in. And then we just found out season three of the bear comes out on June 27th. That is also actually pretty exciting.

Speaker 31064.4s - 1065.3s

So, hey, you know what?

Speaker 21065.92s - 1072.06s

But we got to wait until June, man. We got to get to June first. I don't know if we're going to get to June. With, like, with the Astros ORG.

Speaker 31072.22s - 1072.72s

With anything?

Speaker 21073s - 1085.38s

I mean, I mean, look, I'm lucky because I got, I'm going to Florida for Mother's Day. Maybe I'll stop at the quick Twitch facility to see how Jose Abrae PERSON is doing. Give some pointers on...

Speaker 31085.38s - 1094.88s

It's a two-hour drive, I think. The box jumps or something? Yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, I could show them. I'm like, listen, man, I'm 35 and, I mean, look at me. I've got quicker twitches than you, Jose PERSON.

Speaker 21096.14s - 1108.56s

Well, maybe not swinging the bat, but... A suggestion here from the text line, they should call up the entire Space Cowboys ORG roster and Demothe Astros' ORG roster for a series just because. As a punishment? You know what? Yeah.

Speaker 31109.08s - 1116.66s

That's something that would happen in a baseball movie. I'd be cool with that because they air the games on ESPN 92 ORG. Panic Man PRODUCT, where are you?

Speaker 21117.5s - 1118.68s

There's no panic anymore.

Speaker 31118.68s - 1135.54s

I think we did one Panic Man PRODUCT. I want to say it was like the second series. It might have been the Yankee ORG series. It was. Panic Man PRODUCT is a character that I have designed for radio that panics when you don't need to panic.

Speaker 21135.72s - 1141.02s

Because the aster's been so good. It's supposed to make fun of everybody who freaks out about things all the time.

Speaker 41141.32s - 1142.6s

There's nothing to make fun of.

Speaker 31142.88s - 1147.78s

Everything that you think you should freak out about is totally in bounds right now. Yeah. 100%.

Speaker 21147.78s - 1151.2s

Maybe Panic Man picks up football this season.

Speaker 31151.92s - 1152.5s

Oh, definitely.

Speaker 21152.76s - 1154.12s

That's the only two of expectations.

Speaker 31154.42s - 1157.62s

100%. I don't know. Maybe we should be a football show.

Speaker 21158.38s - 1159s

Should we find a team?

Speaker 31159.06s - 1159.38s

Soccer?

Speaker 21159.62s - 1159.88s

Yeah.

Speaker 31160.12s - 1162.72s

I'm not, the problem is it's too early in the morning.

Speaker 01163.48s - 1164.3s

The, uh...

Speaker 21164.3s - 1176.14s

We can watch on tape delay. The Champions uh, we can watch it on tape delay. The Champions League was, uh, game was good. Uh, yesterday afternoon. I mean, the thing with the Champions League is that it happens on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at like 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

Speaker 31176.3s - 1182.06s

So it's literally during our show. That's perfect. We can watch in studio hang out after and then discuss it the next day.

Speaker 21182.18s - 1192.78s

It's the, it's only the final. I honestly, listen, I, listen, I love Lance PERSON. I love Dell ORG. Whenever that show talks about soccer, I believe it is a punishment to the city of Houston GPE. Should we?

Speaker 41193.08s - 1194.86s

And it's nothing about what they're saying.

Speaker 01194.96s - 1212.08s

It's more that soccer is do-do. I tried. Sorry, Glenn Davis PERSON. I've tried. I can't. I picked Everton like Lance PERSON.Foolish decision. Wow. Why did everyone pick? Because they had Lukaku and Tim Howard PERSON. Should we watch college baseball? No.No. Try it.

Speaker 41213.68s - 1219.12s

I mean, we are now getting to the point where it is like the regional's like the regional's and super regionals in a couple weeks.

Speaker 01219.12s - 1222s

So it's like only, it's only watching the tournament.

Speaker 41222.3s - 1225.06s

It's just going to make us think about the Astros ORG.

Speaker 01225.18s - 1225.98s

We're prospect watching.

Speaker 31226.08s - 1229.5s

No, it's just. You know what?

Speaker 21229.58s - 1230.74s

Now I'm back in.

Speaker 31231.5s - 1244.04s

Hey, LSU ORG's got this lefty, I think. Who will be, like, this is where I'm at, guys, okay? The projected number one overall pick in the 2025 and we draft does go to Texas GPE, A&M. So, like. Okay.

Speaker 01244.28s - 1247.24s

Is he from Houston? That's where I'm at with the Astros ORG right now.

Speaker 11247.98s - 1252.1s

It's like, can they win the lottery next year and get the number one pick?

Speaker 01252.2s - 1255.14s

Will the lottery be rigged for the Astros ORG?

Speaker 31255.22s - 1256.7s

You're going to do mock baseball drafts?

Speaker 21256.84s - 1257.5s

Love it.

Speaker 31257.56s - 1261.78s

Can I do that on... I don't think that's available. I don't know if they do that.

Speaker 21261.78s - 1267.72s

Don't give Jeremy Brandon ideas for his Twitter ORG. I mean, he needs... I'm the baseball executive of the year. He might need to be. I don't know if they do that. Don't give Jeremy Brandon ideas for his Twitter. I mean, I'm the baseball executive of the year.

Speaker 31268.44s - 1270.78s

He might need to be, honestly, at this point.

Speaker 21271.22s - 1272.58s

So which of these things are?

Speaker 31272.64s - 1274.56s

Oh, I can do the MLB ORG draft lottery.

Speaker 21274.68s - 1275.1s

You can.

Speaker 31275.22s - 1276.04s

Oh, right, dude.

Speaker 21276.34s - 1277.82s

Hold on, one second, simulating.

Speaker 31279.18s - 1279.96s

It's taking a while.

Speaker 21280.22s - 1283.4s

It's taking while. All the combination. Astros have the second pick.

Speaker 31283.74s - 1286.58s

There we go. Let's go. Doesn't the lottery next week? They could end up with radiatingos have the second pick. There we go. Let's go. Doesn't the lottery?

Speaker 21286.78s - 1292.08s

It could end up a Brady game or Barquipal PERSON. But, hey. It could be Alex Bregman PERSON.

Speaker 31292.16s - 1292.52s

Yeah.

Speaker 21293.08s - 1293.98s

Before this year.

Speaker 31294.02s - 1295.32s

You get six good years out of them.

Speaker 21295.88s - 1296.78s

Yeah, Carlos Correa PERSON.

Speaker 31296.96s - 1297.88s

There's like, there's still plenty.

Speaker 21297.94s - 1299.32s

Isn't the NBA lottery next week?

Speaker 31301.32s - 1302.64s

It's in three days.

Speaker 21303.18s - 1304.04s

Oh, great.

Speaker 31304.28s - 1308s

Oh, we could bring back a segment that Sean PERSON and I did, lottery watch.

Speaker 21308.12s - 1309.46s

Any suggestion you want?

Speaker 31309.56s - 1310.1s

You want to have?

Speaker 21310.18s - 1314.7s

We'll just do simulations of the lottery and we'll see where the rockets end up.

Speaker 31314.82s - 1315.84s

Here's one for free.

Speaker 21316.08s - 1317.64s

The Rockets have the ninth pick.

Speaker 31317.88s - 1319.3s

Oh, that's okay.

Speaker 21319.52s - 1319.98s

That's not good.

Speaker 31320.42s - 1321.42s

No, that's pretty good, right?

Speaker 01321.42s - 1322.12s

I want top four.

Speaker 21322.42s - 1323.4s

Yeah, they didn't move up.

Speaker 01323.6s - 1324.64s

That's just where they're slotted.

Speaker 31324.64s - 1333.5s

That's where they're slotted. Well, because it's the Brooklyn pick, and they're sending the 12th pick to O'KC ORG. Yeah, we need better than that. Tennis Talk?

Speaker 21334.08s - 1339.22s

I'm not going to lie. I'm going to pass. Well, it's not for me.

Speaker 31340.3s - 1341s

Majors only?

Speaker 21341.28s - 1343.62s

I'm trying to, I'm trying to sound more like an adult.

Speaker 31343.76s - 1345.42s

Look, I got the third pick for the Rockets ORG right now.

Speaker 21345.42s - 1345.9s

You got the third?

Speaker 31345.96s - 1352.72s

There we go. I've done like three and a... Okay, now we got the second pick in the worst draft in like 20 years.

Speaker 21353.52s - 1365.88s

When I was at Chili's, there was women's tennis on, and I also was like, that would be also better than the Astros Yankees ORG game. Rockets just got the first pick. They got the first pick with the lottery. Okay. Thank you, Brooklyn Nets ORG. It only took like 12 tries. 12 tries.

Speaker 31366.2s - 1368.08s

Okay, so a 1 and 12 chance. I mean, look, I'm not

Speaker 21368.08s - 1370.16s

surprised by this. We know what the Twitch ORG wants.

Speaker 31370.84s - 1371.96s

But it takes

Speaker 21371.96s - 1386.5s

responsibility of you. Oh, date updates. No. Again, I'm at rock bottom right now. Your boy, I got, I finally got a text back from one of the people I texted over the weekend, notLinkedIn ORG girl. And I'm just like, I'm not even going to respond.

Speaker 31386.82s - 1390.4s

Yeah, River PERSON suggested tennis talk. Let's see.

Speaker 21391.2s - 1398.04s

Coogblaze says a Lawton Garden Talk WORK_OF_ART. Yeah, we'll start bringing Barry PERSON on. Bass fishing. Okay.

Speaker 31398.5s - 1423.28s

NASCAR ORG? NASCAR ORG, they turn left. We could do NASCAR ORG. They don't turn right. I know they turn left a lot. I only know that from South Park.Yeah. Tony Stark here, Iron Man PERSON, says, Livgolf coming to Houston GPE. Let's talk about that. Okay. Where are they coming to Houston GPE?A couple months. I think it's next month, actually. Okay. Or maybe it's in July. Hurricane preparedness? That's a good call.Do we work?

Speaker 21423.58s - 1426.8s

Hurricane season, right around the corner. Do we work during hurricanes?

Speaker 31427.54s - 1434.34s

Probably. I'm within walking distance. So I mean, I'm going to 100% be the guy who walks to work.

Speaker 21434.34s - 1435.88s

I'm in the evacuation zone.

Speaker 31435.88s - 1440.14s

Walking distance for you is, you know, it's miles.

Speaker 01440.8s - 1443.32s

It is miles. Everything in Houston GPE is walking distance.

Speaker 31443.32s - 1451.68s

It's 1.1 miles of a walk. It is miles. And I will 100% when I walk to work guys and do my job.

Speaker 21451.84s - 1457.24s

I will definitely post about it on social media and act super pretentious while doing it.

Speaker 01457.38s - 1459.54s

Yeah, I did my part. Houston GPE's strong.

Speaker 41459.7s - 1461.24s

Are you going to wear rain boots?

Speaker 01461.86s - 1466.52s

Oh, yeah. Big rain boots. Have someone else take a picture of you so you're like turning around.

Speaker 21466.98s - 1468.92s

Yeah, with my hair like blowing in the wind.

Speaker 01469.22s - 1470.62s

But it looks a little hot.

Speaker 41470.62s - 1471.38s

See, Indycar?

Speaker 31471.38s - 1475.06s

Uh, oh.

Speaker 21475.66s - 1476.6s

I prefer NASCAR ORG.

Speaker 41476.6s - 1477.1s

F1?

Speaker 31477.82s - 1480.72s

I already watch F1.

Speaker 21480.78s - 1481.2s

F1.

Speaker 01481.66s - 1483.1s

There's not a lot to talk about.

Speaker 31483.1s - 1485.98s

The reality show seems like it's better than the actual

Speaker 01485.98s - 1492.2s

sport. Yeah. It is at this. The reality show came at the perfect time where it was like super competitive.

Speaker 21492.58s - 1496.98s

Now it's no longer competitive. How about this? How about this? What? What was that left?

Speaker 31497.46s - 1504.64s

Your excitement. Well, hey, our beloved Houston Sabercats are awesome this year.

Speaker 21504.64s - 1505.98s

I mean, we can definitely talk about that.

Speaker 31506.22s - 1507.84s

I mean, you're a big rugby guy.

Speaker 21507.92s - 1508.28s

I am.

Speaker 31508.8s - 1509.68s

Sounds great.

Speaker 01509.86s - 1512.5s

I mean, the Sabercats are legitimately 8 and 1 this year.

Speaker 31512.52s - 1517.6s

All right. Let's go. This is like, I think the best season they've ever had. I wanted to try out like you did.

Speaker 21517.78s - 1519.74s

I want to go play. I had no idea what I was doing.

Speaker 01519.74s - 1520.94s

I kind of want to do.

Speaker 21521s - 1527.7s

We should do. We talked about that before. But I did tackle people. That was fun. We should like a rugby match with like, which day. No one will have any idea. Who do you want to hit the most? Who do I want to hit the most? Who do I want to hit the most? Who do I want to do. We should do. We've talked about. But I did tackle people. That was fun. We should like a rugby match with like which station.

Speaker 31527.7s - 1528.48s

No one will have any idea.

Speaker 21528.48s - 1529.38s

Who do you want to hit the most?

Speaker 31529.56s - 1530.42s

Who do I want to hit the most?

Speaker 21530.5s - 1531.52s

Yeah, 610 or 790.

Speaker 31532.02s - 1532.54s

People there.

Speaker 21532.54s - 1533.22s

Which station?

Speaker 31533.92s - 1537.5s

I want to humiliate the 610 people athletic.

Speaker 21537.5s - 1538.38s

Let's play rugby with them.

Speaker 31539.3s - 1540.8s

I mean, I love them all.

Speaker 21540.98s - 1541.94s

Share your favorite recipe.

Speaker 31542.64s - 1543.4s

My favorite recipe.

Speaker 21543.64s - 1543.8s

Yeah.

Speaker 31544.1s - 1544.9s

Let's talk food.

Speaker 21544.9s - 1545.44s

Cooking Paul PERSON. Okay. Like, let me tell you out of my gravy. I love them all. I said, share your favorite recipe. My favorite recipe. Yeah. Let's talk food. Cooking Paul.

Speaker 31545.58s - 1545.88s

Okay.

Speaker 21546.34s - 1547.86s

Like, let me tell you out of my gravy.

Speaker 31548.04s - 1548.3s

Oh.

Speaker 21549.18s - 1550.58s

Hockey has been suggested.

Speaker 31551.5s - 1553.8s

I mean, the Canucks game last night was pretty awesome.

Speaker 21554.22s - 1555.12s

Yeah, but they're Canadians NORP.

Speaker 31556.5s - 1557.16s

Good point.

Speaker 21557.28s - 1564.04s

As a part Canadian NORP person. I mean, I'm French NORP Canadian by blood. I'm sorry. We don't talk about the Canadians NORP. Okay.

Speaker 01564.28s - 1568.44s

We can talk about the other hockey, I guess. But the lightning aren't in it anymore. I don't really care. I'm sorry. We don't talk about the Canadians NORP. We can talk about the other hockey, I guess, but the lightning aren't in it anymore.

Speaker 21568.52s - 1577.58s

I don't really care. I barely care it as to watch. It sucks when there's no hockey here. It's just hard to get into a sport that is not in this city because it's their job to watch sports every night.

Speaker 31577.88s - 1585.3s

And if there isn't a sport here, what's the point of watching it? Shout out to the Astros, because I turned them off last night, so I watched the NBA playoffs and I watched the NHL ORG playoffs.

Speaker 41586.5s - 1588.06s

I was like, I don't even watch this.

Speaker 31588.24s - 1589.52s

Spencer PERSON, again, gave a bunch of runs.

Speaker 41589.64s - 1590.44s

I'm going to go watch the hockey.

Speaker 31590.44s - 1596.22s

Was it yesterday where you're like, I've watched more NBA playoffs than the last, since the Rockets ORG made it.

Speaker 21596.26s - 1600.18s

So I've watched more NBA playoffs, and now I've watched more NHL playoffs than I have in the last like three years too.

Speaker 31600.3s - 1601.54s

We also have breaking news.

Speaker 21601.82s - 1611.12s

Uh-oh. The Astros ORG have released the lineup. Oh, I thought you about going to see a release. All right. Someone text. Great tease.When we get back. What's wrong with Joe Spot PERSON?

Speaker 31611.12s - 1613.84s

What's wrong with Joe Spotter's lineup and who gets fired first?

Speaker 21613.98s - 1616.32s

That's next on ESP 975 ORG or 92-5.

Speaker 31616.36s - 1619.44s

First, let me tell you about my friends at Pendleton Whiskey PRODUCT.

Speaker 21619.66s - 1634.42s

Yes, the Astros ORG are frustrating a lot of us, but you know what's a great way to relax at the end of the day or to relax while you're watching a bad baseball team play? Guess what? It's a smooth glass of Pendleton Whiskey PRODUCT. It's smooth. It's refreshing.

Speaker 01634.86s - 1676.46s

It's exactly the way I like whiskey, which is not too sweet. Two fingers, one rock, and a cocktail glass. Beautiful. Every single time.But there's a variety of different things that you can make with Pendleton PRODUCT whiskey. Go to their website. We've got some very creative ideas for cocktails that you can put together. Rodeo Mary PRODUCT, really anything with tomato sauce is pretty damn good.

And three, it's barrel-aged in American NORP oak. You blend it all together and you've got something that's going to satisfy your inner cowboy. It's Pendleton Whiskey PRODUCT.It's true Western NORP tradition. Warning.

Speaker 11677.12s - 1697.44s

You're listening to ESPN 975 and 925 PRODUCT.

Speaker 51697.58s - 1701.5s

From the Veritex Community Bank Studios, here's Paul and Joe PERSON.

Speaker 11702.96s - 1706.64s

Keep sending your suggestions of what we should watch instead of the Astros ORG.

Speaker 31706.72s - 1725.92s

Another one here real quick from the prodigal vault on Twitter. Olympic trials or just the Olympics EVENT in general. It is the Olympics season. We are Team America on this show. We are. So we will support the Americans NORP in every sport they watch.And they play in gold medal watching. That's what we'll in the summer that's

Speaker 21725.92s - 1735.22s

true simone byles got to reclaim the throne yes um chicago's own now sorry uh do you use houston's forever sir

Speaker 41735.22s - 1739.92s

do you watch do you want to you want the lineup first you do want the the rotation versus

Speaker 21739.92s - 1745.82s

the tigers do i want either uh do I want either?

Speaker 41747.2s - 1747.48s

Do I want either, Joe PERSON?

Speaker 31748.72s - 1749.34s

The rotation is more... Just give it to me.

Speaker 21749.46s - 1750.34s

Just give me the bad thing.

Speaker 01750.34s - 1772.3s

The rotation is more interesting because Hunter Brown PERSON has been skipped. Good. So Hunter Brown will not start this weekend. So Ronald Blanc, obviously, will pitch tonight. And then Christian Javier, so Frambervalles will pitch tomorrow. Christian Javier on Saturday, Justin Verlander on Sunday, Hunter Brown PERSON being pushed back.Damn, Hunter Brown PERSON can't even pitch in his hometown. Nope. He cannot.

Speaker 21772.38s - 1775.42s

Against the Tigers ORG who should not be good.

Speaker 31775.56s - 1776.8s

I don't know what the record is.

Speaker 21776.94s - 1778.7s

I'm assuming it is better than that of the Astros ORG.

Speaker 31778.76s - 1780.84s

Oh, definitely. I mean, the Astros are one of the three worst teams in baseball.

Speaker 21781.04s - 1782.44s

I wasn't sure if it was closed.

Speaker 31782.6s - 1785.7s

I wasn't sure if the Tigers were fourth place. Yeah, they're 19 and 18.

Speaker 21786.72s - 1787.84s

Oh, they got a winning record.

Speaker 31788.02s - 1788.14s

Geez.

Speaker 21788.9s - 1792.1s

Yeah. Well, they're 12 and 24. There's that.

Speaker 31792.66s - 1801.96s

But the Astros ORG lineup is out. Let me pull that up here. Where is Alex Bregman batting, Joe PERSON? He is batting in, he's batting sixth again in this lineup. Okay.

Speaker 21802.46s - 1803.84s

Is Jeremy Payne again?

Speaker 31804.1s - 1804.66s

He is.

Speaker 21804.66s - 1807.06s

Let's go! Jeremy Pena! So again? He is. Let's go! Jeremy Pena!

Speaker 31807.7s - 1829.98s

So Altuvei, Tucker, Alvarez PERSON is your D.H. Pena is your shortstop, batting fourth. Singleton, followed by Bregman PERSON, Yiner Diaz PERSON. Jake Myers PERSON, not in the lineup, even though he had two hits yesterday.Joey Lopofito PERSON is playing batting eighth and is in left field. And Marisu Dubon PERSON is batting ninth and playing in center today. Well, Dubon PERSON should probably be a little higher up too because he had three hits last night, but hey.

Speaker 21830.14s - 1830.62s

Yeah.

Speaker 31831.62s - 1848.42s

At what point do we have the conversation about moving Yoron PERSON down in the lineup too? Because Yoron PERSON's struggles are being very, very overlooked. They are. He has 13 hits his last 75 at bat. That's better than Breggman, I guess. But he's five for 31. Low more.

Speaker 01848.42s - 1859.98s

The scoring position on the year. Only four of those 13 hits are for extra bases. So he's not doing very well himself. I, I'm going to say we don't ever talk about it.

Speaker 31861.42s - 1865.36s

Okay. I'm cool with that. It's the one player.

Speaker 21875.08s - 1875.74s

Him and Tucker, Tucker Altuve-A Alvarez, like, unless they're Alex Bregman bad, which even though, I mean, Jordan Alvers kind of is, to your point, it's Jordan Alvarez PERSON.

Speaker 31876.8s - 1877.02s

Like, he's going to figure it out.

Speaker 21877.64s - 1878.46s

He's slumping.

Speaker 31879.4s - 1880.14s

Alex Bruegman PERSON stinks.

Speaker 21881.48s - 1881.98s

Like, to me, there's a difference there.

Speaker 31882.98s - 1895.48s

I don't know why. I can't explain it. But Alex Brugman, he stinks. He's a difference there. I don't know why. I can't explain it. But Alex Bergman PERSON, he stinks. He's losing money left and right. Yordon PERSON, he'll be fine. He's going to start hitting tanks any day now.I can feel it. Do you think Gregorita PERSON?

Speaker 21896.08s - 1910.5s

Bregorita sales are going down at Minutemade Park FAC? They sell those? Well, yeah, there's the L-TEMPO Margarita PRODUCT, and then you can get the Bregarita, which is just a plastic cup with, like, Tahine and Bregarita,

Speaker 41910.94s - 1914.24s

Bregui hot sauce that's on the rim.

Speaker 01914.62s - 1915.54s

It's not very good.

Speaker 31915.72s - 1916.22s

I haven't tried to yet.

Speaker 21916.22s - 1917.72s

It's no highway canteen it for 975.

Speaker 31917.92s - 1918.6s

Hey, Tall Texan Margarita PRODUCT.

Speaker 01918.6s - 1920.1s

We'll be there again soon.

Speaker 31920.4s - 1921.3s

I think it's next month.

Speaker 21921.6s - 1924.22s

Please, yes. That's the only reason I want to watch the Astros ORG,

Speaker 31924.38s - 1927.84s

so I have a reason to go to Highway Cantina FAC.

Speaker 21929.44s - 1930.46s

So that's the line up today.

Speaker 31930.56s - 1934.22s

So I'm glad to see Joe PERSON's spot and not changing that again.

Speaker 21934.64s - 1937.9s

I would be open to paying you a betting too, but at this point, I don't really care.

Speaker 31940.04s - 1949.36s

People need to hit the baseball. So you're a nihilist right now. Hit the baseball. Baseball Nileus, Joe George PERSON. Okay, so I'll peel back to the curtain here a little bit. Open the kimono.

Speaker 41949.48s - 1952.26s

When we started working together and the Astros ORG started struggling.

Speaker 31953.06s - 1980.44s

And you said you were done watching the Astros until they won three games in a row. I was really annoyed. I was like, really? Like, what are we going to talk about this summer? Because they're going to be fine. Well, here's the thing, Paul PERSON.You were right. I'm with you now. I don't want to be. I want to talk about this summer? Because they're going to be fine. Well, here's the thing, Paul PERSON. You were right. I'm with you now. I don't want to be. I want to talk about the Astros every single day. Not anymore. They've taken the joy from me.I love watching the Astros ORG. I love talking about baseball. But they suck. Like, how many times can we say they suck? Yeah.

Speaker 21980.68s - 1982.88s

That's why we're taking suggestions of what we're going to watch.

Speaker 01983s - 1983.36s

Exactly.

Speaker 21983.5s - 1989.76s

Like, you think there's a chance I'm watching when they go to the West Coast and they play the A's and the games and the games are starting at 9 o'clock at night. You think I'm watching those games?

Speaker 31989.9s - 1991.9s

What if Junior PERSON's keeping you up?

Speaker 21992.32s - 1992.98s

Eh, maybe.

Speaker 31993.72s - 1995.84s

I will say, like, I am like peak television right now.

Speaker 21995.9s - 1997.2s

Like, I have a lot of shows I'm watching.

Speaker 31997.26s - 1997.54s

Okay.

Speaker 21997.78s - 1998.3s

At the moment.

Speaker 31998.42s - 1999.86s

You got a lot of reasons to not watch the extras.

Speaker 21999.86s - 2001.92s

But they all end within the next like week and a half.

Speaker 02001.98s - 2004.06s

You're in the same boat as me.

Speaker 22004.24s - 2004.54s

Yeah.

Speaker 02005.06s - 2005.6s

Like survive. I still watch Survivor WORK_OF_ART. Okay. I don in the same boat as me in that. Yeah. Like survive.

Speaker 22005.74s - 2014.72s

I still watch Survivor WORK_OF_ART. Okay. I don't know how many people are with me. What season is this now? 48. Something like it's pretty deep.Two of my friends in Seattle GPE, they were obsessed with the show.

Speaker 02014.72s - 2014.74s

Yeah.

Speaker 22014.8s - 2016.04s

I still watched The Amazing Race WORK_OF_ART.

Speaker 02016.14s - 2016.3s

Okay.

Speaker 22016.42s - 2031.3s

Both those shows end in the next like two weeks. That's three hours of television I'm losing because each episode's an hour and a half now. So I need the aster's turn around a little bit. I know, lame. I watch all the Chicago shows. Chicago Med, Fire, and PD ORG.I know. Network television.

Speaker 32031.56s - 2040.34s

You're such a dork because also you're from Chicago and you can just say like, oh, if Joe's just watching, he's like, yeah, Chicago's strong.

Speaker 22040.46s - 2043.36s

If there was a Boston show, Joe PERSON, I would not watch it.

Speaker 32043.78s - 2044.26s

Why not?

Speaker 22044.34s - 2044.76s

I wouldn't.

Speaker 32048.7s - 2055.32s

There's a Houston show on Netflix, I believe. I forget what it's type. Oh, the comedian. I forgot his name. They've only done one season. They're supposed to be

Speaker 22055.32s - 2060.08s

another season. Mo. Mo. Very good. It is a very good. Based on the life of

Speaker 32060.08s - 2065.94s

comedian Mo Amur PERSON. I watched that show and it made me laugh because it's incredible.

Speaker 22066.56s - 2067.26s

Like it is.

Speaker 32067.36s - 2068.38s

Maybe that's a show we should watch.

Speaker 22068.38s - 2070.46s

Like it is watching.

Speaker 32070.68s - 2091.28s

Because it's Houston GPE. People have like immigrant parents from overseas from Arabic countries and like what Mo PERSON is going through in the show. And then like when he brings home a white girl and like looking at my relationship with my wife and her family it's the other way around we just laughed that's like hey that happened to us

Speaker 22091.28s - 2096.6s

it's like it's like it felt like very similar so you related to it i related to that show it's very

Speaker 02096.6s - 2101.62s

funny though but they did one season and then the second season still hasn't come out yet it was a

Speaker 32101.62s - 2105.04s

covid thing or not a covid thing. It was a TV strike thing.

Speaker 02105.5s - 2106.98s

All that stuff ruined everything.

Speaker 32107.76s - 2110.7s

River on the Twitch says Paul wants a real housewives of Houston GPE.

Speaker 22110.84s - 2112.06s

Well, there's House of Ho ORG.

Speaker 32112.54s - 2115.04s

That is a real housewives-esque show.

Speaker 22115.08s - 2116.94s

It's a reality TV show. It's about the Ho family.

Speaker 42117.34s - 2120.68s

My guy, Washington GPE, he's cool. I don't watch that one.

Speaker 22120.82s - 2131.7s

I haven't watched it either. Oh, okay. But I know that's another Houston GPE-based show. Like, we might have to get, like, super local with it. And, again, we're not going to do this every single day, but these are things that we're doing.

Speaker 32131.76s - 2133.34s

It's just how they're making the assue.

Speaker 22133.76s - 2159.22s

So going into this segment, we had intended to talk about when do the Astrodos ORG do something drastic, seeing as they are kind of reactionary in some of their actions this year, whether it's giving Josh Hater a five-year contract after Kendall Graibman PERSON goes down, or maybe the thing that we saw yesterday, Alex Bregman finally getting moved into the six spot in the order. I've seen a couple of people that are calling for heads on a spike,

Speaker 02159.28s - 2168.76s

and I don't think that heads on a spike necessarily solve anything unless you have an actual solution waiting into wings. I don't think that Dusty Baker, being over Joe Espada PERSON would necessarily make this team better.

Speaker 42168.96s - 2172.46s

Though I like Dusty Baker and I felt like he got a lot of unfair guff last year.

Speaker 02172.76s - 2192.08s

I'm also on the same page with Martine Maldonado PERSON where I don't feel that Maldonado being back would make the Astros better than they were last year. But I did think he also received a lot of unfair criticism. But do you think there's a chance that someone's about to get, quote, sent to Florida GPE, wink, wink, end quote, like Jose Abraeu PERSON in the near future?

Speaker 32192.32s - 2193.7s

Ooh.

Speaker 22195.36s - 2195.42s

I think there's a chance, Joe Spott PERSON.

Speaker 32196.5s - 2198.12s

I just not make it through the season.

Speaker 22199.36s - 2203.92s

Things are so bad. We've seen managers fired after a year with more of a resume. Yeah.

Speaker 32203.92s - 2218.32s

I point to right after the Red Sox fired Terry Francona PERSON. Well, that's why I think Joe's spot is going to not make it to 2025. If Terry Francona PERSON is serious about wanting to come back to baseball. That's the guy. Jim Crane PERSON is going, there's going to be a fall guy.

Speaker 22218.4s - 2218.76s

Interesting.

Speaker 32219s - 2220.28s

Someone's going to get blamed.

Speaker 22220.28s - 2234.14s

And it's going to be Miller and Murphy PERSON. They're both going to, everyone's going to, like, it wouldn't shock me if we go into 2025 with an entire new staff. Someone's going to get blamed. Pitching coach, hitting coach are, I think, the most likely candidates in near

Speaker 32234.14s - 2252.54s

future. But to go back to their, they hired Bobby Valentine after Terry Francona PERSON and they fired him after one year because it was that much of a disaster. And Bobby Valentine PERSON at that moment in time, I don't know if people disliked him, but at the very least he was a manager that people had heard of. Francona is a manager that people have heard of,a good manager that people have heard of. And to go to what you're saying,

Speaker 22253.14s - 2258.4s

if I'm Jim Crane PERSON, I'm looking at that guy and I'm thinking to myself, okay, well, if he wants to come back in

Speaker 42258.4s - 2262.68s

and we want to keep this team largely

Speaker 02262.68s - 2266.02s

together as currently constructed, which they

Speaker 22266.02s - 2269.86s

kind of have to, given some of the contracts, that is a route.

Speaker 32271s - 2283.02s

Yeah, I just, I don't think it would. Someone's going to get blamed, and it's going to be the players are always the last to blame in sports. We've all seen it.

Speaker 22283.02s - 2287.06s

And in this sport, too. We're seeing it happen in the NBA right now with the Lakers and the Sons ORG.

Speaker 32287.16s - 2330.68s

People are trying to, the Lakers ORG actually fire their coach. People want the sons to make a coaching change. In baseball, we see it all the time. People blame the manager when it's not the manager's fault. It's the player's fault. Just because the lineup construction might be poor with Joe Spada PERSON,yes, I don't agree with Jake Myers coming out of the lineup after having two hits. Yes, I don't agree with Kyle Tucker batting second always. It should be Jeremy Payne. Like, I do believe that. It's not why Alex Bergman's hitting 189. It's not why Yvonne-Avarez PERSON is awful.So, yes, Joe Espada PERSON might not be the best manager. But I do look at this and the way Jim Crane PERSON is shown to be reactionary. And I wonder if he says this isn't working. I made a mistake by not, you know, keeping dusty and looking elsewhere.

Speaker 42330.94s - 2334.6s

And I think that could mean Dana Brown and it could mean Joe Spada PERSON.

Speaker 32335.74s - 2336.66s

He's irrational.

Speaker 22337.76s - 2344.42s

It does feel maybe that's a strong word, but at the very least reactionary is what we were saying a little bit earlier.

Speaker 32344.52s - 2344.66s

Yeah.

Speaker 22344.72s - 2347.16s

You can't really say not necessarily irrational

Speaker 42347.16s - 2380.14s

with some of the decisions that they made in the 2022 off season when there wasn't anyone that's a traditional general manager running the show. And what you're saying, the reason, as that it's always the managers as the fall guy, these players are under contract in a way where it's just hard to get rid of some of the contractsthat they currently have. So I think that there will be a fall guy. I'm wondering who the first one will be, though, because I don't think that they're going to fire Joe Espada PERSON in the next month or two months or three months or anything like that. I feel like first up, it is a positional coach.

Speaker 32380.26s - 2403.54s

Sort of like what you saw of the bills last year when they fired their offensive coordinator, Ken Dorsey PERSON. Yeah. It's just, I don't know their offensive coordinator, Ken Dorsey PERSON. Yeah. It's just, I don't know. I mean, maybe this is all happening at the end of the season. And maybe it's a player that gets moved first.And we'll get into that next. Like, maybe it is a trade. You know, so let's go out to the phones first before we got a break. We'll get Gary PERSON in here. Gary PERSON, what's going on?

Speaker 02405s - 2406.04s

Hey, what's up, guys?

Speaker 32407.24s - 2409.86s

I was going to say this is kind of an arbitrary day,

Speaker 02409.98s - 2460.08s

but things are better, like, way better by June the first, which I doubt. Like, somebody has to go. Pitching coach, pitching coaches. I would love to see the organization make a point, you know, like remove Jeff Bagwell PERSON.I don't know how that will work or how the announcement will work. But, like, we're not in the position to just, like, have a lost season and just be okay with this. So I would think by June the first, like, the head has to roll somewhere. I don't think it'll be a spot of, but the pitching is completely awful, even considering injuries, like our pitching is ridiculous. So I would think the pitching coach is,I know it's like a tandem, something has to happen. That would at least make me feel like somebody's paying attention. I don't know if it'll change anything, but like what we're doing now, it's completely not acceptable. Just, I mean, it'sridiculous. Thank you, Gary PERSON, for the

Speaker 32460.08s - 2461.8s

call. Bloodlust.

Speaker 22462.64s - 2464.06s

Everyone wants that head on a spike.

Speaker 32464.26s - 2465.52s

Man, I agree.

Speaker 22466.08s - 2466.22s

I agree.

Speaker 32467.42s - 2470.36s

You think by June 1st or somebody?

Speaker 22472s - 2472.22s

Someone needs to get fired.

Speaker 32475.44s - 2476.24s

I don't typically believe that, but everything is going wrong for this team.

Speaker 22478.94s - 2479.1s

And you can, and like, we're seeing this on social media.

Speaker 32481.58s - 2485.42s

Like, people are trying to, like, really blame Yiner Diaz PERSON right now. Like I saw, and I'm going to call him out because I think it was the most pathetic thing I've ever said. Hit him.

Speaker 02485.72s - 2487.42s

Michael Schwab put out this tweet yesterday.

Speaker 42487.98s - 2493.66s

He saw a screenshot of Yiner Diaz's PERSON mitt being over the middle of the plate when

Speaker 02493.66s - 2526.2s

one of the guys hit a tank against Spencer Arigetti PERSON. And he's like putting emojis out there. So it's very clearly like he's blaming Yiner Diaz PERSON. Like this guy clearly is trying to say that Yiner Diaz is calling fastballs over the middle of the plate against Juan Soto, Aaron Judge, and Jean-Carlo Stanton PERSON. When if you look at the replies, literally the first thing you see is Yiner Diaz PERSON with his mitt above the plate. It's supposed to be a fastball up and out of the zone, but Spencer Arrogati PERSON threw it right down the middle.So people are trying to blame Yiner Diaz PERSON and all these people, but has needed a role.

Speaker 32526.54s - 2530.1s

So even if it's Yiner Diaz PERSON is your everyday catcher at this point. Fine.

Speaker 22531.24s - 2543.46s

You got to hit your locations when you pitch. And they can't. Jeremy Booth was highlighting how in Sunday's loss where Josh Hader PERSON allowed that home run, whoever was catching, I think it was Yiner PERSON,

Speaker 42543.74s - 2548.36s

was calling for a pitch that was high. and instead he throws it right down the middle.

Speaker 22548.52s - 2564.62s

And guess what? Smoked out of the ballpark. So they're missing with their locations. I guess if there is somebody that has to be gone and off the top of my head, I don't know. But maybe the most likely candidate right now would be the Astros ORG pitching coach just because the bullpen has really struggled.

Speaker 42569.1s - 2577.04s

And the starting rotation keeps on getting into games and giving the Astros ORG huge deficits that they've got to overcome. No matter how tough this schedule has been to open up. And it has been tough. They've played a lot of good teams to this point. For sure. You are getting

Speaker 02577.04s - 2583.32s

shelled early and you are not scoring nearly enough. I think they're getting shelled is the bigger

Speaker 22583.32s - 2585.86s

problem. Yeah. Even with the injuries you have at pitcher.

Speaker 32586.02s - 2597.66s

You're giving up three, four, five runs every inning early in the game. I mean, the, the, TK and Blummer PERSON having to make a big deal on broadcasts. The Yankees didn't score running the fourth because they had scoring to run every single inning leading up to that.

Speaker 22597.92s - 2599.94s

And Kyle Tucker leads to the American League ORG and overs.

Speaker 32600.28s - 2603.06s

All right. All right. We'll continue this a little bit throughout the show.

Speaker 22603.94s - 2605.34s

Because it's gross. It makes no sense. All right. A couple years ago a little bit throughout the show. You sounds so disgusted right now. Because it's gross.

Speaker 02605.6s - 2606.42s

It makes no sense.

Speaker 52674.48s - 2676.52s

ESPN, 975.

Speaker 42692.82s - 2692.94s

You're back with Galata George on ESPN 975 and ORG 925.

Speaker 12696.8s - 2698.06s

For the Veritex Community Bank Studios, here's Paul and Joe PERSON.

Speaker 52705.04s - 2705.4s

So in 2015, I was at MinuteMade Park for the Canelo PERSON fight that was happening here.

Speaker 12707.54s - 2707.84s

It was the coolest thing ever been to.

Speaker 32708.18s - 2739.7s

Really? Because there were so many fans from Mexico GPE that were here. It was insane. I've never heard a stadium that loud in my life. But it led to one of the funniest things I've ever witnessed. So I'm in the press row.I think it's the fight before Canello PERSON. And they wanted to open the roof for the Canello PERSON fight. I think they were going to do a flyover maybe and then they just wanted to have it for like the aesthetics on television. And so it's the fight before, I think it is. And they start to open the roof and like these idiots didn't check the radar. Oh no.It was raining.

Speaker 22740.08s - 2740.62s

Was it raining?

Speaker 32740.86s - 2743.8s

So like not hard. It was like a good drizzle.

Speaker 22743.88s - 2747.52s

You can get a hard rain this time of years where the flooding sometimes happened.

Speaker 32747.52s - 2770.3s

But, like, they start to open the roof while there's a fight going on in the ring. And it's raining. So, like, it's like, it got like 10 feet open maybe. Maybe more than that because it's hard to tell, like, just like how big the roof is. They had to stop it and then close it again. But they just like kept the fight going.Well, at least. And I've never seen anything. Like, the fact that they tried to open it while it close it again. But they just kept the fight going. Well, at least. And I've never seen anything. Like, the fact that they tried to open it while it was raining was just baffling to me.

Speaker 22770.3s - 2783.78s

Joe, we have two stadiums with roofs that never open. Taxpayer paid in some way, shape, or form, I'm sure. So I'm happy that they opened it a little bit that night. They just like, they tried.

Speaker 32783.78s - 2805.96s

They gave a, they got a sneakie. Unlike the Astros ORG. I'm not, I'm not sure if they could a little bit that night. They just like, they tried. They gave a, like, yeah, unlike the Astros. I'm not, I'm not sure if they could do that with the, with Middamead or in RG ORG where they could stop it halfway through. I think, I think it's either open or shut for a while. There are certain stadiums that are like that where like they've done this. I think it happened last year or this year in a regular season game, maybe it was even in Arlington GPE where

Speaker 42805.96s - 2811.28s

it was Milwaukee GPE where they decided to open the roof and then like by the time it got

Speaker 32811.28s - 2812.36s

opened it started raining.

Speaker 42812.86s - 2816.24s

But it wasn't opened yet and it takes like 25 minutes for it to fully open.

Speaker 32816.78s - 2820.54s

And they had to wait for it to fully open and then they could close it.

Speaker 22821.22s - 2847.22s

As someone who's known to wear a Hawaiian button down or two, sometimes you feel like, hey, this might be a three button down kind of event. And then you realize, oh, wait, no, this is a two button down event. No, it's raining outside. So we have to close. It is crazy that that mistake could happen because they do have people at these games that are like meteorologists that just look at the radar.

Speaker 42847.66s - 2858.64s

And like I know Texas has one for football because he taught one of my classes where he literally would just sit there and his job was to be like, it is not safe to play.

Speaker 32859.32s - 2862.18s

That is his job is to say it's not safe to play.

Speaker 42862.56s - 2863.68s

Yeah, I just, it's.

Speaker 22864.1s - 2866.34s

But like, admit I may, like, there's windows.

Speaker 32868.06s - 2869.7s

Or just, like, walk outside.

Speaker 22870s - 2873.3s

Have someone walk outside with a walkie-talkie and be like, no, it's raining.

Speaker 32873.44s - 2884.36s

It's raining. Can we open the roof? No. And that's where I kind of, my guess is that it was someone that doesn't work for MinuteMade. That was just like, hey, we're open, like, someone that worked for showtime or whatever

Speaker 02884.36s - 2884.86s

it was.

Speaker 22884.86s - 2885.4s

Yeah, like, it's like, hey, like, that's why I think there might have been a flyover that was supposed to, hey, we're open, like someone that worked for showtime or whatever it was. Yeah, like the TV.

Speaker 02885.4s - 2895.14s

It's like, hey, like, that's why I think there might have been a flyover that was supposed to happen or something like that. And why they felt it had to be opened in that moment, but just, it was baffling.

Speaker 32895.32s - 2908.94s

Because, like, my buddy was the ring announcer. And I'm just, and I'm sitting next to him. I'm just like, what are they doing? It's raining. And at one point, they were like, they might have to cancel the fight if they couldn't get it closed fast enough. So what about you, Paul PERSON?What's the funniest or weirdest thing you've seen at a sporting event?

Speaker 22909s - 2917.54s

I'm sure everyone in Houston is going to say those who saw Super Bowl 38 live, Janet Jackson's PERSON boob getting pulled out.

Speaker 02917.7s - 2918.16s

Oh, yeah.

Speaker 32918.3s - 2927.34s

But even then, like that was a split second and probably couldn't see it because I think that it went to black right after in the stadium after it happened. But I didn't see that. I was out actually playing basketball.

Speaker 02927.84s - 2932.6s

And I think all our parents were very relieved. Instead of watching the halftime show, me and one

Speaker 32932.6s - 2936.56s

of my friends, we played a game of like 21 or something like that. We came back inside.

Speaker 02937.1s - 2943.16s

And everyone's like, everyone was noticeably quiet. And we asked like, oh, what happened?

Speaker 42943.2s - 2945.78s

I was like, oh, it was just a halftime show. So we didn't even know until the next day

Speaker 32945.78s - 2949.02s

at school. Oh, that's fine. I actually, because that was pre-internet. But for me,

Speaker 42949.52s - 2956.68s

these both, it had happened in 2002. So it was the last game of the year between the Patriots

Speaker 02956.68s - 2960.24s

and Dolphins at Gillette Stadium. Ricky Williams PERSON was the running back for the dolphins.

Speaker 22960.24s - 2967.36s

He was running all over New England. And I think Miami was up 10 points with about five minutes to go.

Speaker 02967.92s - 2986.16s

And this absolutely hammered guy fell on top of me and puked near me. Luckily not on me. Okay. But near me. And he just fell on top. And I was 12.And I was a small 12 years old.

Speaker 22986.7s - 3021.12s

So it was, it was a scene. And I got to give my dad a lot of credit because it was a group of four older than college-aged young men who I'm sure were all embarrassed that their friend had done that. And so my dad had to basically go get security because, like, the guy was just annihilated. And, like, took a while to get off of me and stuff. So I remember that happened. And my dad was like, we should probably go.So we left. And I kind of wanted to leave, too, because that was an unpleasant experience.

Speaker 33021.32s - 3027.12s

Yeah. And as we were walking to the car, Patriots came back from down 10 points, won the game in overtime.

Speaker 23028.06s - 3031.52s

It was awful. It was entirely because of this drunk guy falling on me.

Speaker 33031.7s - 3042.96s

Yeah. So after that moment, this was before, they had only won one Super Bowl EVENT then. After that moment, I said,I am never leaving a Patriots ORG game early or stopping watching a Patriots ORG game early ever again. Until now where I don't watch it.

Speaker 23043.42s - 3044.08s

Because they're not good.

Speaker 33044.46s - 3058.04s

Yeah, my, my dad still gives me grief about this game I left early in 2001. Went to the Bears Browns ORG game. Okay. And they got like a pick six and then an on-site kick. And then I think another one.

Speaker 23059.06s - 3061.12s

And the Bears ORG had an absolute crazy comeback.

Speaker 33061.2s - 3061.38s

Yeah.

Speaker 23061.5s - 3073.34s

The Bears had come back and won by the time we got on the bus outside Soldier Field FAC. Oh, wow. But that was just so cold. Was that the, okay, so it wasn't the, I was wondering if it was the Cardinals' game where Denny Green PERSON had to meltdown.

Speaker 33073.44s - 3076.56s

But I was in Arizona GPE. So, yeah. But yeah, I think, yeah.

Speaker 23076.82s - 3084.32s

Because that game was pretty crazy at the end. That was a crazy game. Because that was another, I mean, this is what all the crazy Bears ORG game have in common.

Speaker 33084.48s - 3090.02s

It was all defensive and special team scores that fuel the comeback. My dad still brings it up.

Speaker 23090.12s - 3091.34s

He should, honestly.

Speaker 33091.5s - 3093.94s

He's like, hey, make sure Joseph PERSON doesn't leave a game early.

Speaker 23094.04s - 3097.22s

I'm like, Jesus, Dad PERSON. Well, I like that. Did you leave Dad PERSON?

Speaker 33097.22s - 3100.86s

Yeah, we laughed at the fifth. We threw a pretzel. He was in timeout.

Speaker 23101.3s - 3102.62s

It could have been a major comeback.

Speaker 33102.62s - 3103.6s

He got ejected.

Speaker 23103.64s - 3104.42s

My dad was there.

Speaker 33104.64s - 3105.2s

He was there too. My dad was like, are you sure you want to leave early? I'm like, yes. He just threw a major comeback. He was there, too. He got ejected. My dad was there. He was there too.

Speaker 23105.24s - 3106.8s

My dad was like, are you sure you want to leave early?

Speaker 33106.84s - 3112.52s

I'm like, yes. He just threw a pretzel with cheese at someone, okay? Like, we've got to go.

Speaker 23112.82s - 3115.08s

He's on the run, honestly. There has been no justice.

Speaker 33115.18s - 3121.18s

There's a warrant now. There should be. He went to time out. He went to time out. But you laughed at first.

Speaker 23121.82s - 3123.12s

Well, yes, but there was justice.

Speaker 33123.12s - 3141.78s

There was just self-serve justice. All right. Where did the Texans rank in terms of teams that can knock off the Kansas Chiefs this season? Fox Sports put out their playoff predictions already. Are there way too early ones there? The Texans has the two seed in the AFC this year.We get to that next year on ESPN 975 and 925 PRODUCT. ESPN ORG.
