Transcript
00:01oh hi diddly do neighbors all right let's get to work can't believe we're here
00:09but i'm gonna play some audio for you and then we're gonna talk about it and people are gonna
00:15get angry and not think for themselves and it's just it's gonna be a hootenanny paul sarah you
00:20look great today all right let's let's just do this can we just play the audio a guy that i
00:26don't
00:26even like talking about a guy that i don't even care if he's here or not anymore a guy who
00:31i'm
00:32this this is like number one with a bullet of things i don't want to talk about anymore anything
00:37that start with the word tarik and end with the word scoobal here we are because scoobal spoke last
00:43night now they beat the brain dead a's and drop fly balls and win six to two god bless fantastic
00:49now you're only nine under 500 good for you but scoobal spoke after the game right and he said
00:54some things and that's the crux of the matter because the hair on my neck really stood up with
01:02this because well take a listen to this and then i'm going to explain to you why i feel the
01:07way i
01:08feel why and folks you got to realize this must be good david because mike i do not want to
01:12come out
01:13of retirement he has put down the afghan and he is joining us for this topic i don't want to
01:20do this
01:20but i have to do it all right we'll keep the rocker warm for you here's scoobal
01:26on the trade deadline and what he wants the team to do
01:45wow wow the lack of self-awareness is just
01:50wow oh man so oh let me see i'll i'll try to be nice about this okay first things first
01:58oh you want them to buy then sign a contract here i'll do you one better oh you want them
02:06to buy
02:08interesting do you know why buying is even a question because we don't even know if you're
02:12going to be here hold on let me let me do you one better aren't you the same guy who
02:18wouldn't even
02:19negotiate with this franchise putting them into a lame duck situation in the first place
02:27here's the problem in all this had you signed your deal you'd have every right to stand at that
02:34locker drop trowel and demand they buy because you would have planted a flag here but you didn't do
02:43that you don't get to do this this is where i get so annoyed it's athletes wanting their cake
02:51and eat it too they just want to have everything at all times you wouldn't even talk to this team
02:58you allowed your agent to basically fart in the team's face go out and do nursery rhymes
03:04scooby dooby doo i mean do you understand you know what no you don't understand you don't there's
03:12no self-awareness from today's athletes you do not get to make those demands you don't want to be here
03:18because if you wanted to be here you could have told boris make me a tiger for life or you're
03:24fired
03:25you didn't do that so i am fine with you betting on you and wanting your money that's your prerogative
03:36but you no longer get to do this this is what i can't stand in today's sports you don't want
03:44to be
03:44here i'm not making decisions that affect the next five years of this franchise while you'll be an
03:50effing malibu with a 50 million dollar home because the dodgers paid you 400 million you don't
03:54have to live with those results you are gone you're not here so if i buy and it doesn't work
04:04you don't pay the price this franchise does that that is the folly in all of this and i want
04:12to use
04:12a a different f word that rhymes with duck several times in this rico the whole problem with these
04:20conversations are we're going to make a five-year decision on five weeks of baseball if he had so
04:27much as kept the door open to being here if they were actually attempting to talk if there were
04:33anything out there that said boris at the behest of tarik scuble they're trying to work something out
04:40this would be okay had he signed i'd stand and applaud this this is what a leader does this is
04:47what
04:47we beg all of our athletes to say make the room better but he didn't and he's because he's enjoying
04:55right now and he's caught up in the moment and he wants to keep this moment going i guess for
05:00his
05:00final swan song before he walks out the door but you're right and it was just so simple when you
05:06said
05:06it it's like i said it's like the person who invented the post-it note you know what it was
05:10so simple we all
05:11should have done it tarik if you really feel that way sign a deal and if you sign the deal
05:18i think
05:19you'll get your wish because now we can be buyers because we know he's going to be here but he
05:23doesn't
05:24want to be here but he wants oh but he wants you to fluff him buy a bunch of stuff
05:28and look i i don't
05:31mind the idea that you have to buy i just don't need to hear it from him i don't need
05:36it you don't
05:36want to be here you don't get to make that appeal because you don't have to live with it
05:43if they buy and you blow out if they buy and you have a bad day if they buy and
05:49don't make the
05:50playoffs don't go on a run now they lose you for nothing and they bought and meanwhile you still get
05:58to sign your 400 million dollar deal you don't get to do that i that that's the problem i have
06:04in all of
06:05it he doesn't want to be here ergo i don't want to hear you you can pitch your six innings
06:12but you
06:13started to lose this town when you opted out of the seattle game and then you really lost this town
06:19when your agent was out there doing a helicopter dance and doing dr seuss rhymes and then all the
06:26reports come out you're not even willing to talk to the team and now don't forget about the world
06:32tour he took sure sitting courtside at every game he possibly could to say don't talk to me about it
06:37you know what you're right he did the same thing aaron rogers used to do where he'd go to the
06:41kentucky derby put himself where all the cameras could find him and then well aaron doesn't want
06:45to talk then go sit in a corner you're at the kentucky derby exactly and here's the other one he
06:52did
06:52that world baseball classic thing that really frosted a lot of people's tips yeah i just i would love to
06:58know from tiger fans your response to it because you can't tell me he's some kind of team leader
07:02he don't want to be here that's like dylan larkin while demanding a trade asking eiserman to go get
07:07him help huh you're not gonna be here you don't want to be here when you won't talk to the
07:15team and
07:15you won't negotiate with the team you don't want to be here i don't blame the team in this regard
07:21i don't
07:24they want some ridiculous fugazi 400 million dollars i i would scott harris should be launched
07:32into space if he paid 400 million dollars if scuba wanted to be here that asking price would be more
07:36reasonable he'd still have more money than he could ever spend i mean guys no offense this guy's not
07:42that much better than max freed and max freed signed eight at 218 here keep the change here's here's eight
07:49at 300 he would fart in your face you don't want to be here so i pardon me if i
07:56don't want to hear
07:57that because if he were signed he'd be doing his damn job he'd be out here stumping to go get
08:03help
08:03but when you're gonna walk out that door why the hell do you get to ask oh and by the
08:09way if i got to
08:09hear about 2024 again i'm gonna slam my head into a urinal oh we've proven we can do it we
08:16did it in
08:1624 great the patriots proved they could come back from 28 to 3 in a super bowl i guess they
08:21should
08:21start every game down 28 to 3 right well david i know what to get mike for uh for your
08:28birthday i'm
08:28giving you a helmet buddy because you're going to hear about that whole 24 thing for the rest of the
08:32summer it is the reason why well we you know you can't sell this team off you can't do this
08:38because
08:39you remember what happened just two years ago they can do whatever they want don't let the tigers get
08:43do whatever you want leave me out of it but no no do it i didn't write them off i
08:47told you the al's
08:48historically bet do whatever you want no but as i said yesterday you had a chance to do both but
08:52school will coming out and saying well you know what adam we need to add well it starts with you
08:58so are you willing to sign no if you're not willing to sign then keep your mouth shut go get
09:04me help
09:05empty out the prospect cabinet and i'll make sure to high five all the all the guys i'm leaving
09:09behind in october i mean guys here here do this paul sarah do me a solid please pull up the
09:15tiger's
09:16odds to uh win the al i know the answer to this but i just want to i i want
09:21to make sure i'm right
09:22just to give people a reality check of where you where you are because you're you're you're your
09:27pitcher who won't talk to the team whose agent won't talk to the team whose agent routinely is
09:33leaking things to the press to get him out of here okay is the same guy who wants to stand
09:37up there
09:38like sylvester stallone yelling murdoch into a microphone okay this is the same guy this seems
09:44nine games under 500 i think the tigers to win the al plus 2000 true or false paul uh according
09:51to
09:51online it's plus 2500 plus 25 you are 25 to 1 to win the al and the guy who won't
09:58sign to stay here
09:59wants you to mortgage your future to try to check my notes win the al
10:06you want to call me a boomer you want to call me nona you want to say i'm out of
10:10touch you do
10:11whatever you want i'm just a believer that there has to be an accountability today's athletes want to
10:16have their cake and eat it too yeah they want it all all the time and that's just not how
10:20i am yeah
10:22sign hey if he was actively negotiating with the team you think i'd have a problem no no if he
10:27had
10:27signed his deal would i have a problem no no get out of here honestly i it's a little tone
10:33deaf
10:33he's very fortunate i don't run this team i would have traded him last night
10:38i would have had a big red phone in my office i would have picked it up get him out
10:42i also think
10:43it's kind of annoying how much they keep pointing to 2024 and completely ignoring this is also the
10:47same team that collapsed and blew a 15 game lead in their division paul what are you talking about
10:50paul no he's right no no he's right you know no they celebrated okay okay here's my other problem
10:59okay best record since june 1st this is why i'm so effing exhausted with this team do you know what
11:05they were over the previous 162 games the worst record in the sport you know what they were the
11:1150 games before that the best record in the sport hey you know what they were the 50 games before
11:16that
11:17oh worst record in this book pick a lane be good be bad pick i mean it's like a kid
