Transcript
00:11all right let's get a little blitz see what the hell we're talking about we'll get back
00:14to business in a second music please oh what okay what you're gonna bust my balls here
00:24so this is a bit of a blitz here david wanted me to do a blitz to catch you guys
00:27up to speed
00:28because you guys were both on vacation last week of what happened in our area okay last week nice
00:34area so we'll start off with max clark made his major league debut friday night the 31st of july
00:41yeah uh what's your take on that made no sense you wait till august 14th you preserve his rookie
00:47status i don't know what the hell they're doing it i'm happy he's here let me be clear but it
00:53made
00:53no sense to do it the way they did it why would you do that two weeks or you could
00:58have waited the
00:58two weeks at this point we've known center field's been a problem for how long the entire year yeah
01:03you could if you're gonna if you're gonna screw over to rookie status you bring them up early
01:08um so i don't know it kind of felt like our fans are going to be mad at us let's
01:12let's offer them
01:13sprinkles i don't know i i didn't i don't get it that's exactly what it was is they knew or
01:18had an
01:18idea of what they were going to do with the deadline and said oh but this shiny thing over
01:23here don't forget about that that's again not mad about it but i was asked a question i owe you
01:29an
01:29answer all right the second thing that happened was the very next day the tigers traded tarek
01:35scuble to the dodgers and then they also traded casey mice of the padres yes right move you can't lose
01:41these assets for nothing and how did they get enough i mean those are different conversations and a week
01:46later i don't think they're worth having i mean i i wasn't overwhelmed i didn't understand trading
01:52them two days early and i got my answer when scott harris seemed very sensitive and triggered by the
01:58question so that kind of tells me uh it hits a little close to home that's garbage is it you
02:05sure
02:05about that what i didn't understand how do you not trade glaber torres you're not getting anything for
02:12this goes right back to what we said from the beginning they were going to try to thread this
02:19needle get your parking money get your daiquiris get get you down there to have a little pulled pork
02:25or whatever the hell they're serving and sell but not sell compete but not compete not mad about it
02:33but it doesn't really add up you gave him the qualifying offer you're getting nothing for him when he
02:39thank you and right-handed bats were in short supply at the deadline like to think you could
02:44have got something for him they needed to trade scuble they absolutely needed to do that i was a
02:49little worried as it got towards six o'clock that they were going to trade mice um but they did
02:54that
02:54they glad they did that got it done um yeah i don't understand i trading glaber as well but
03:00trading those two it was the right move and guess what we talked about it you could trade them and
03:06still compete because the al's a garbage can but it's the ice cream principle ice cream's tasty
03:11who doesn't like an ice cream in the summer i got in trouble this past week because i bought my
03:15niece
03:15and nephew too much ice cream i digress the point is it ain't good for you so like great go
03:22ahead make
03:22the play you're not winning the world series oh you think you're winning the world series
03:32but do whatever you want uh the next thing that happened was the first ap top 25 coaches poll came
03:39out ohio state one oregon two georgia three texas four notre dame five and for some reason michigan 16
03:47because i hate to break this to you you said the coaches poll yes it's more like the sports
03:53information director poll coach you think coaches are sitting you think kyle whittingham is sitting
03:58in his office and going all right time time for my coach's vote you know who do i like better
04:04georgia
04:05or texas brother having interns fill these things out all look michigan is blue magic it's a brand name
04:12when are they not ranked to start the season doesn't it's it's all it's fugazi michigan at 16 makes
04:22a ton of sense love that it could should have been higher um okay all right uh should have been
04:29higher but uh the the rest of it yeah it is what it is i mean let it all play
04:34out we'll see in a
04:35couple months what they really are john so another thing that came out was that unlike what what was
04:42originally said steve eiserman is not in fact involved with any hockey operations anymore and sean
04:48horkoff is actually running things as the gm and there's going to be a third party search firm
04:54in place to find a new g yeah one problem you hire an outside firm to hire an inside guy
05:00now you're
05:01getting reports jeff greenberg who's the general manager of the tigers which is a no-show position
05:08scott harris runs the damn thing so it's like outside firm to hire a guy who already works for the
05:15villages in a different sport i don't know man i i just view the red wings at a different level
05:21that if i call to hire somebody else's gm or assistant gm i got a good shot of getting it's
05:27an original six franchise they do have a beautiful arena it's the red wings man what are we doing how
05:34do you end up on jeff greenberg and i know he was the the assistant what was it the assistant
05:40gm
05:40at a blackhawks for 17 minutes is that really what we're i just you know what i think charles
05:47ramsey said it best with the red wings it's just i don't know man something is not right something is
05:56wrong here because we say that he trade red wings and we think history yes tradition and yes i don't
06:02think a lot of people see that outside of this area anymore so i think that's where they say
06:07the red wings uh i'm good they think go well joe please wow whoa joe just trying to talk here
06:16about the red wings man i can't believe he said that it is yeah it just seems this whole search
06:22thing it just seems weird uh you're just gonna yell down the hall jeff jeff come over here we want
06:27you to run hey baseball or hockey what do you need let me grab a different binder i'll be right
06:32down
06:33i just it doesn't make sense to me the other thing that happened was during crosstalk of the
06:39morning show and the midday show we have a strong contender for next year's drop tournament
06:52that lit up the text uh communications uh
06:56david will have to find a spot on our board of shame that's an immediate addition much like wojo's
07:05why is doug saying this paul why did this happen in heather's news there was a restaurant in
07:13hollywood florida that apparently once a month is going to allow nude dining nude dining so you
07:18can dine in the nude in hollywood yes florida yes and i'm from hollywood florida and i mentioned that
07:24and i guess when gator came in for crosstalk he misunderstood and thought that they were
07:29talking about i was a nudist in florida for some reason and then doug said that
07:37and the wow the world exploded on ticket tax essentially
07:42wow
07:44that's got costa written all over it doesn't it that's a real strong doesn't he leave from like
07:50the port of lauderdale for some of his little pineapple cruises he does i mean
07:54my god he could stop over there get wild enjoy a nice dinner first
08:04so the next big thing that i have to tell you
08:09hollywood's a strange i know florida's strange and i i spent some time down there in the fort
08:14lauderdale area but dude hollywood's a weird place man it's kind of weird yes very weird boardwalk
08:20you know yeah but you go from like a mcmansion to a guy with a meth lab in his front
08:25yard
08:26back to a normal home to a mcmansion to a homeless encampment to a casino to an apparently a hang
08:35dang restaurant nudist night to like dude hollywood florida's a weird ass place it's a mansion to a to
08:44like the house that used to be next to lca and then it's florida strange bro there's like an abandoned
08:51seashell like stage thing that you could have concerts at but no one ever uses it so it's kind of
08:55like
08:56graffitied over isn't michael irvin from hollywood florida i don't think so i double check that for me
09:02i think he's from hollywood florida i do wasn't cedric irvin former michigan state running back from
09:10hollywood florida i don't know weird place from fort lauderdale okay sorry enough sorry the other
09:19big thing that happened this uh that week was uh the lions extended jameer gibbs i mean the highest
09:24paid running back in the league i mean we all knew it would happen i what do you want me
09:29to say
09:29i mean it looks team friendly on the front end fine enough i don't i don't care i i fine
09:36guy like
09:36what am i gonna do be upset about something i knew was gonna happen what did i tell you for
09:42months he
09:43was gonna get 22 million a year like it's it's do whatever you want i mean they keep doing this
09:50he had two more years left on his deal i don't understand the need to do it but they did
09:56it they'll
09:56save a little money on the cap all so they could do nothing in free agency again fine get your
10:03jerseys now i'm just glad lions fans are happy i'm just leave it at that and the last major thing
10:09that
10:09happened was jackson job returned to the mound to pitch for the first time in 14 months and got five
10:15innings got the win okay and well how do you think he looked i don't know i didn't watch it
10:23was on
10:23vacation i just want his arm to be attached i look i'm i'm fine with all things tigers they traded
10:31scoobel had to i'll roll with it and maybe they make a little pen and chase and people can buy
10:37their
10:37daiquiris and have a good time but i don't think it results in anything so for me i view it
10:42as very
10:43light entertainment as i count down to uh the nfl i think they're a much more likable team to root
10:48for now that the trade deadlines passed they are because scoobel was insufferable but yet somehow
10:54we still have to hear him talk i dude the insecurity is wild like you don't need to be liked
11:00man like the
11:01the oldest phrase like i get it if you're in your early 20s or something and and you're in this
11:06blast
