00:19do you need like no brainers just to get the momentum back slump busters michigan over western
00:25michigan or save it for the utep game or something you ask michigan fans if they want me to costalox
00:30yeah exactly i don't want any part of that well a relative of the costalox is a double digit disco
00:35correct so those haven't gone so well either no although he did get the red wing one right in
00:40terms of they would continue their playoff drought do you know the first costalox ever
00:45was matt patricia's first game wow true story they're playing sam darnold and my overconfident
00:55braggadocious ass said they're gonna they're gonna crush him and then by the way quandary digs
00:58yes first first play the game i'm like that's it we got this so let's trade quandary digs i will
01:04say
01:05this one year ago today you buried the guardians and claimed the tigers would win the central
01:11yeah it was i was i was here with you yes the tigers are 10 games under 500 10
01:20double digits are you trying to it doesn't work that way you couldn't do it from the heart that
01:26has to be genuine it's a problem is the heart doesn't work a lot of times i know
01:32and you'd like to think just don't do it like you completely dismiss their soccer program belgium's
01:36yeah yeah like i brought the rank rankings out they're old they're done with this they're not
01:41that good how you said i haven't beat anybody right yeah notre dame football i think that was used
01:48yesterday and then they had an extra little oomph thanks to the balligan thing yeah and their uh
01:56social media response last night minutes after the game was overturned this yeah yeah i'd like good i'd
02:01like to promise that i'm not going to do another one i just know at some point i'm going to
02:05get
02:05all hopped up and have to let it out yeah as you get older you'll probably you know those will
02:12change they'll slow down you'll still make some but you'll you'll and you will get better you would
02:20hope i think so i haven't even looked at the text today but tom just brought in three pages
02:26and i've noted some of the better responses what do we have here costaloc strikes again as soon as i
02:32heard the costaloc i put everything in the account on belgium plus 160 made it work with some extra
02:37cash can cookies costaloc ohio state to beat michigan in november that's will evans from his
02:44car on his 40th birthday happy birthday will worse for sports jim costa or penis cancer 248
02:53hey cookies the lock is dead please end it you have a losing record james in traverse city
02:59cookies it was close only four goals away from fulfilling your lock yeah people forgot that
03:05they scored an extra time to make it four to one says i don't think you should lock anything going
03:10forward your house your car it'd be much safer without locks signed sam u.s looked like they were
03:16playing street soccer ragged disorganized tentative they didn't look like they belonged
03:20they were in this stage they looked you know they were scared they looked scared at the beginning
03:25they were which i can't figure it out you're at home why are you scared of belgium getting dog
03:31walked by a washed belgium after your clown president tried to rig the game might be the most embarrassing
03:36performance of any team in the world cup i don't think that had anything to do with it but you
03:42never
03:42know how it more psyched up how about this it shouldn't have anything to do with it belgium
03:48was very whiny before the game but when it was time to play yes they came out to play and
03:53if
03:53your u.s soccer whether the trump thing helped her you have to show up and play they didn't come
04:01to
04:01play no it's on them i think they waited they waited to get into the game they wanted to like
04:08you
04:08know basically let it let it uh play out for a little bit and then you know see what happens
04:14oh look i i think the story that's the story of the game the play that the symbol was symptomatic
04:19of
04:19the whole thing was their second goal where the brunier whatever you how you pronounce his name
04:25who the guy who had two goals he completely out worked and out you know physical tim rehm in the
04:32box that goal should have never happened because rehm is bigger and he's stronger yeah look you
04:40could debate whether it was the second goal or the third goal i would say the third goal felt
04:44definitive because oh yeah yes but and that was much more humiliating the third goal because you
04:50go into the half and everybody's going we're lucky to be within one goal right you make a lineup change
04:54you come out you start putting chances and possession together and you feel like boy for 50 minutes
05:00we're going to get a shot here right to tie it up so then tim rehm he he's he's not
05:06far enough back
05:07and then our goalkeeper why is he hesitating i have no idea just boot the ball no idea so you're
05:12surprised they lost because you locked yes i mean so i'm not surprised they lost at all i thought it
05:17was a toss-up yes 50 this is a major how you lost yeah like huge how you lost like
05:24i would equate it
05:25to how the lions lost to the commanders it wasn't that they necessarily lost the game when you look at
05:30their deficiencies and injuries but it's how they lost the game correct like that's the i think
05:35like you're saying if they lost 2-1 on a goal at the very end where they were right there
05:40neck and
05:40right that's one thing but then they from the get-go they were gone now the only difference
05:45in the commander game is the lions had the lead it looked like they were going to go up two
05:49scores
05:49before the you know fumble fumble but the united states were never even in the game it looked like
05:56mentally they did tie the game yes no but it lasted all of 61 seconds i'll stand with you on
06:01this they
06:01were never in it they trailed damn near the entire time they were tied for all of 61 seconds
06:06well plus the zero zero yeah which lasted only like eight minutes that nate freezing goal last night
06:13oh no uh we had a couple texts our goalie's awful uh looked like us against philly late in the
06:19year
06:19signed dylan and royal oak pulisic is the larkin of soccer he's a good player who can be a
06:26complimentary piece on a great team but when he's asked to be the guy and a leader he comes up
06:30short
06:30every time that's anthony and ann arbor the fact that he's not the captain of the team he's maybe he's
06:35not a leader that's okay not everybody can be leaders but your best players have to play
06:41good well i'm not saying he's got to be messy no he doesn't have to be holland of norway
06:47he has to be our best player though and he wasn't our best player yesterday no and look he wasn't
06:52our
06:52best player in the tournament right you're right i mean and what's you know but he was the guy that
06:57was like the face of this movement of players this he's playing in the epl memories with chelsea
07:03years ago and now he's playing he's a terrific player i mean if you can play at a high level
07:08which
07:08he did overseas for a long time it's not it's no knock on his football ability but when in for
07:17you
07:17when he's playing for the country he just comes up short right but you the people will tell us we
07:22just don't have the talent and yet we have a player who played for chelsea and now ac milan he's
07:28playing
07:28high-end european soccer so what's the answer he's get more of them he doesn't even show up it's it's
07:35a
07:35mentality more than anything else well that's just him i mean look he wasn't the only one that
07:40laid an egg last no i'm saying but he's the one of the stars who does who does they have
07:45some other
07:46players they start running through guys they're like oh this guy plays on arsenal and this guy
07:49okay so we have some european like talent that plays in europe but not as many as we as as
07:55other
07:55teams obviously i mean our goalie plays in the mls yes and i think you saw why
08:03this team is the james franklin of the soccer world beat up on mediocre teams and defecating
08:08on themselves against a real team you like that comparison stoney yes to a certain extent yeah
08:16jim can you costa lock my mother-in-law coming over to visit for the holidays
08:22costa should be suspended for a week red carded for that lock accepted it's all on you randy and
08:27livonia that would be great if powers walked in here when he got in hand you a red card until
08:31you'll leave that would be outstanding i had some people saying i should be deported yesterday
08:36right like to belgium to windsor sure belgium uh someone says stoney you're spot on with this
08:44100 our top athletes play basketball and football could you imagine if someone like randy moss had
08:49been trained to play soccer or the big viking on norway if that was lebron or calvin because he's
08:56compared to megatron but yes i'm not going to fight this point no but i think we have we overflow
09:02of with great athletes we have 30 times the population of belgium we have enough to populate
09:09the nba the mlb the nhl the nfl and still have tens of millions of high-end athletes they have
09:1711
09:18million as a country right i just don't accept that well here's many of our good athletes play the
09:22other sports we have too many good athletes in general we should be able to to field 11 on the
09:27pitch maybe and i don't know the answer to this the coaching the development the people who are
09:33developing our athletes our soccer players aren't nearly as good as the people who are developing
09:40athletes in other countries just remember the argentinian coach dismiss some of the pool because
09:47of our commitment to olympic sports that belgium what do they do the in the olympics right so some
09:54of our best athletes are beyond the major sports are playing or training and don't forget about the
09:59ones that train to try to get to the olympics and don't make it the lifelong commitment of doing that
10:05and then also our obesity rate too compared to the rest of the world they don't have they don't have
10:10capri sun when they play youth soccer over in belgium so what you're saying is oranges what you're
10:17saying is ranch is holding us back yes they don't have participation trophies in little kids football
10:23overs overseas well this is where we've arrived two four eight five three nine 97 97 i wouldn't let it
10:32bother you i mean it sounds like like people in brazil are probably still you know in mourning because
10:37they lost you know in their round just oh yeah in other countries our goalie our goalie would be in
10:44witness protection program it just means more we did a day two topic you were gone when the u.s
10:48won the
10:49gold medal in hockey yeah and it was why can't we do this in soccer okay and to me the
10:56hockey points
10:56out what we don't we're not committed in soccer right the 30 year commitment i've seen made me longer
11:02in my lifetime to the u.s soccer hockey program was intense yes and you're just seeing it materialize
11:11a with olympic success but also oh you know you've got the the pool of usa hockey players that are
11:17carrying a lot of star clout in the league still not the best player in the league but it's getting
11:22there oh absolutely amount of time that took right i see tech saying can we just move on and be
11:29done
11:29with soccer now that they're eliminated look we can i got open lines people want to call in this
11:33morning we can talk about the aftermath of what took place because i think a lot of people that
11:37may have been the only game they watched oh yeah absolutely and if you have thoughts we'll take them
11:43tom you think there's an athlete in detroit you'd like to nominate as the most
11:47underappreciated i think this is a good conversation we'll do it next 97 one
