So we got more to get into. But you know what? With Jerry Palm joining us in about twenty minutes, We actually are a college football game tonight. This, well, there's a few of them, but this is the one that I'm really looking forward to. Are the North Carolina Tarheels?
The football team. Of course. Are they going to go out there? and successfully beat Cal Berkeley Okay, they went from east coast to west coast. We all know what a horrific season North Carolina has had up until this point.
They got a record of two and three. In every single one of their losses, they're out here getting blown out by like more than twenty five points. They gettin' smoked.
Okay, when it comes down to power for opponents. They have been outscored one hundred and twenty. It's a thirty three.
Okay, you can sit around and talk about Bill Belichick and how great he was in the NFL. The man has never coached in college. We all know about the controversies with the girlfriend and how hands on is she well, let me tell you. Outside of dealing with last week, Where everything was about whether or not Bill Belichick was going to quit during the bye week, whether or not he was going to walk away. Bilk Belichick puts out a statement.
North Carolina puts out a statement. Everybody says That Bill Belichick is going nowhere. Bill Belichick has a press conference earlier this week. He says he's not going anywhere.
So they're committed. They're in it. They're not good. going anywhere. That's what they say.
But then things continue to get worse.
Okay? We get even more stories this week. Pablo Torre is over here dropping news about how Bill Belicek's GM, Michael Lombardi, who we have had here on the show in the past, has basically said to everybody, Well, he didn't say that. It was reported He went to Saudi Arabia to try and find NIL money, and it doesn't stop their money. It doesn't stop their, excuse me.
We know Saudi Arabia is full of money. We also got leaked sound. from Bill Belichick and his girlfriend Jordan Hudson, Well, they were just trashing studio staff last year. when Bill Belichick was doing all these damn shows, like Coach at the NFL Network, and then he had this other show with the Underdog Fantasy Network, And I I guess it's just Everybody dump. On Bill Belichick time.
Like, and what is the point and the purpose? of releasing and leaking some of these behind-the-scenes pieces now. You know, let's take a listen because This is Bill Belichick. This is his girlfriend, Jordan Hudson, the woman that apparently has no input at North Carolina, allegedly. This is them from last year.
They're they're complaining about of all things? Graphics in the studio. Listen to this. Is it necessary to say keep them out of the end zone? Because I feel like that's pretty self-explanatory on defense.
I don't know if there's like an additional point. Yeah, yeah, they'll be it's a what's the point on that? 100%. I feel like that applies to all defenses.
Well no, but we just said that the Cowboys offense is the best offense in the league. They have the most yards per game.
Okay, so they're gonna get the ball down there. We know they're going to hit the ball down there. Preventing touchdowns, enforcing the field goals is going to be a key to the game. I mean, we could say it differently. Conceptually?
Long. Should that say red zone instead of end zone?
Well There's explosive players involved.
So you guys haven't reviewed these before this moment here? At the graphics. Not the actual graphic itself, no. Ah, but a complaint about the gr I didn't stop there. There was a point in time where his girlfriend Jordan Hudson She was telling the NFL te NFL graphics team About using Adobe Photoshop.
Here, do this, click, click here, do this. Do you know what you're doing? You want to create editable templates that Matt can just plug numbers into?
Well, we'll get somebody else to do it. We could use Adobe Photoshop, and honestly, this is something I've done before with what you're calling a template.
Okay, so Adobe Photoshop. You know, and we have last week's thing, and then you literally just go back and say, Oh, rather than Joe Montana, you just go click, click, click, click, click on the delete button and then type in a new name. It's already formatted, it's already this, and you just upload it. You take a screenshot of that screen and then just upload it. And it takes literally like three minutes to do it.
I mean, I was able to build out his, you know, entire website with animations, with all of these things. I have zero, you know, real graphic experience. And he has a live website with all of these. Things on it. It was just a matter of, you know.
Pressing some things around, it's like, oh, well, we don't like that. Adjusting the info. Yep, right.
So, couldn't we, like, you know, it's pretty elementary, do something. Oh, they're pretty elementary. Wow. She's just telling everybody what they need to do. She's like, I have no experience.
I did his website, but I can tell you, the professional, what to do. And we we don't have to listen to the full thing here, but uh Let's just listen to Jordan Hudson and Bill Belichick be nasty to people behind their back. Here's a quick snippet. Let's listen to a little of it. I like to Oh, that looks great.
Everything happened. Yeah. That was awesome. Let's go back. Let's go back.
Okay. Thanks, Code. We should have done it. No kidding. You should send one of those texts like even when I'm working even when I'm with somebody else I'm thinking of you.
I was thinking of you the whole time. Oh man. Yeah, I guess they're missing somebody that they used to work with. Why would somebody leak Well, I know why. Because it's just like here's an example of these people just uh It's kind of yapping.
Let me tell you something about working in a television studio. You have a microphone on you. Like you're sitting around with a lavalier mic on your body. Why are you saying something? Why are you saying anything?
that you do not want to have heard in public. I mean, we have a lot of these. I don't even want to say things. We have a lot of these instances that exist, they are entire YouTube channels. That are dedicated to news people, people in studios.
just saying things that they that that that not that aren't supposed to be heard in public. like bloopers and outtakes, because people just simply forgot. that they were mic'd up. It's called the hot mic. Let me tell you something.
Okay, I'm talking to a microphone for a living. There's a microphone in front of me right now. I've worked in plenty of TV studios on plenty of sets. Man, when I walk my ass into that studio, when I know that there's a microphone, I'm not saying nothing. I'm just all about work.
I'm not talking to anybody on anything. Unless it's my own damn private time, you can throw that idea out the window.
So, to have a professional come through. A guy like Bill Belichick, and I guess maybe he's not that much of a pro sitting around doing media. I know he's upset. I know Jordan Hudson is upset. That conversations that they had privately, regardless of whether they were trashing some of the production staff or not, I know they are highly pitiful.
Pissed off. That things like this were released. I mean, we actually had the NFL network and NFL Films. They actually put out a statement saying, We value our relationship with Bill Belichick. We would never release anything like that.
None of this came from us. And it's just like, we had nothing to do with the production. They just shot all of this in our studio. And it's just like, yeah, sure, maybe. But at the end of the day, Somebody was sitting on the audio for the whole damn time.
And they were waiting on the the opportune time to take a dump on Bill Belichick and they did. I mean, it's not unusual for someone to uh you know, trash the help. Per se I don't like this work. I don't like this. I mean, certain things that we heard, she's over here telling the.
the artist what they need to do. And so Pablo Torre The same guy who's been sitting around beating up on Steve Ballmer and Kawhi Leonard and all the robbery and theft and Kawhi's contract. He's the one who got Got this audio out there. And then I told you he he took it a step further. He pretty much said that You know, like this is this is the atmosphere.
that exists in North Carolina. Like this is the reason why Jordan Hudson had to get the boot. and apparently she was booted, From Bill Belichick's hand picked GM Michael Lombardi, listen to this Game of the season, that 48-14 blowout lost to TCU. wearing something that I'm not sure a lot of other people noticed. The word in this Slide deck that I hope you can make out.
Is what? Banned. Notably, this is not a reference to the fact that This Football Administration has banned New England Patriot scouts from attending and scouting Carolina football games this season. The ban, of course, was as They mentioned in those in those various news clips. It was disputed.
By Carolina, the school clarified that she's going to continue to manage Belotech's personal life. She's not involved at all on the football side, is not an employee of the university in any way, but is very much welcome in the building. But one thing that I do Want to report publicly now, which I've been waiting to report. Just hold hands. There was this disputed.
whole like thing that I was blamed for. The person who had told multiple people around the program that Jordan was no longer involved with the football program and was no longer allowed in the building was. You guessed it. North Carolina general manager Mike Lombardi. Mike Lombardi.
Oh boy. This is bad. Like, and everybody is saying he's going to stay. Like, why does the program want him there if they got to deal with more of this? And you mean to tell me that they're not going to be more losses?
Could you imagine if they lose tonight to to Cal Berkeley? Could you imagine if they stink throughout the rest of the season? We've already gotten reports about the morale being bad. And we've already got the North Carolina and Bill Belichick just doing damage control. How could morale not be bad?
when there's so much of a focus on the head coach, he's a distraction right now. Like, that's the reality. The guy and anybody, any football coach, they never want distractions. They never want anything taken away from what's going on on the field. But.
Bill Belichick is the biggest Distraction. It's horrific right now. And then you have even Pablo Torre. You heard about Michael Lombardi, the GM. banning his girlfriend from the building.
Pablo Torres said that the GM was was trying to get NIL money. Out of Saudi Arabia. And to just give you a sense of what Carolina's general manager has been quietly up to, this was. I am told two weeks before the season opener against TCU. What multiple sources tell me is that Mike Lombardi With his assistant general manager, Lance Thompson, was in Saudi Arabia.
Oh. To try and fundraise over there. No, well come on now. What what what what's going to be reported next? Like, Bill Belichick did a deal with the devil?
Like, what? What are they going to say next? You know, there has to come a point in time, even if I'm Bill Belichick. Like, how much more money do you need, bruh? If I'm Bill Belichick, there comes a point in time where I'm just like, you know what?
This is not worth it. The juice is not worth the squeeze. my characters being assassinated, My and this is all his doing, by the way. This is all Bill Belichick's doing. Nobody woke up and decided to take a dump on him.
He did it to himself. He did it to himself with the the public issues with the girlfriend, that really set him up. As a pinata. When he went out there publicly, And decided to let the world know that he was in a relationship with this young woman. He he became a punchline.
Bill Belichick became comedy. Like, nobody can take away his legacy with the New England Patriots. His legacy, well, he didn't have one. but people already hated his guts in Cleveland. He already burned a bunch of bridges when he left the New York Jets to go to the Patriots.
Didn't even coach a game for him. And he's just doing the same thing. Like, of course, yeah, we all know he had Tom Brady, and he was a genius that ran the ship. Nobody knows football like this guy. Yada, yada, yada.
But apparently this is one thing that we've also learned and that has been confirmed. We knew it from the press conferences. And we've learned this over the past, I don't know, almost 40 years. It's confirmed Bill Belichick. Is a jerk?
Yeah, we knew this. But he also might be a a stupid jerk when it comes to his personal and private life. and he's really let and allowed this. Gonna taint his legacy Okay. He's always going to be known as the Patriots guy.
Nobody's erasing his wins, but when it comes to his reputation, When a documentary comes out, When he's older, This is going to be a bad bookend. to what was an amazing NFL career from the New York Giants into the Patriots, and then they're gonna have to end with this exclamation point. And here's the thing. It's not even over yet. We haven't even gotten to the bad part.
We haven't even gotten to the end of North Carolina. And whenever the end comes. I think the odds are it's not going to be pretty. I think it's just a matter of when. It's the JR Sport Re Show here with you coast to coast on the Infinity Sports Network.
We're going to take a break, and when we come back on the other side, we're going to be joined by Jerry Palm. We're going to talk about some of the actual. College games that we can expect to see.
Okay, we got some big ones. I told you, we got Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, the old miss. We'll get into whether or not Bill Belichick is going to look like crap tonight. We'll have that chat with Jerry Palmer on the other side. It's the JR Sport Brief Show, Coast to Coast, the Infinity Sports Network.

You're listening to the JR Sport Brief. It's the JR Sport Brief Show here with you coast to coast on the Infinity Sports Network. Yeah, we're getting ready for another weekend, another solid Saturday, even a Friday night. Of college football action.
Okay, we just talked about Bill Belichick and all the rumors and news that came out today. We got a couple of games that are already underway. We got North Carolina and Cal Berkeley getting it on in a few hours from now. We got a full slate of great games tomorrow. Joining us right now to talk all things college ball is Jerry Palm from PalmBrackets.com.
Jerry, how are you? All right, how are you? Excellent. You know, before we get into Belichick, we got a game going on right now between Louisville and Miami. We see Carson Beck has already thrown two touchdowns.
We see Louisville has a 14-7 or now I see Miami just scored a 14-10 lead. I'm not all, I know Carson Beck before tonight has looked very good. I remember him playing right here in Georgia with the Bulldogs. Uh I'm not a big fan. Are are you sold on Carson Beck in in Miami this year?
Well, they certainly have looked good. uh up until you know we'll give him a game at least in the first half tonight but Miami's been been pretty dominant. It it's hard to argue with that kind of success, but We'll have to see what happens when they get to the postseason. And of course, Bex postseason was cut short last year with an injury. Uh and um it ended up you know the Georgia could not.
Maybe go as far as they could have because he got hurt. And so we didn't really get to see him. in some high leverage situations last year because of that. Uh but I I think Carson Beck is a pretty good college quarterback. I don't know if if he's a high draft big type of pro or anything like that.
But somebody will probably take a flyer on him in the NFL. Yeah, without a shadow of a doubt. We know that the next game, ESPN, we got Nebraska, Minnesota, they just got underway. But the next ESPN game following Louisville and Miami, we got North Carolina and Cal. And it seems that every single week there's there's something new that comes out about Bill Belichick.
Now we got private conversations that are being leaked and It just gets worse every single day. Do you think he's going to be around next year? I would say probably not. I I have a feeling the college football experience is not what he thought it would be. Um And it certainly hasn't been good on the field.
I mean they patterns. you know, pretty miserable on the field. And that's really ultimately what decides things like this. Um But yeah, they just they haven't been good. They beat Richmond, they beat Charlotte.
Clemson, who had not been really doing well at all, beat him thirty eight to ten. Um at their place.
So You know, this just hasn't been a competitive football team really uh in the way that you would expect Bill Spellicek to have a competitive team.
So You know, it They could end up you know, two and nine or two and ten. Oh, three and nine, something like that. This is uh a team that's going to struggle to win games this year. And Is that Um, you know, I that's probably not how Belichick wants to leave you know, his last season coaching. Uh but it might be that this is his last season coach.
Jerry Palm is here with us from PalmBrackets.com. Speaking of coaches, I mean, if we go ahead and take a look at Brian Kelly over at LSU, I know they're 5-1. They have huge expectations. He left Notre Dame. A few years ago to help turn things around.
5-1 LSU, 5-in-1 Vandy, Garrett Nussmeyer. I don't know if he's lived up to the billing. I know we just talked about Carson Beck. I'm looking forward to this game starting things off for tomorrow. What should we expect?
Um Probably not very much scoring. because that's the way LSU plays. They're an outstanding defensive team. They can't really score very much. It's really a contrast to styles.
Uh because Bandy is a good defensive team, but they're they're pretty solid offensively. But LSU usually dictates. And if LF, you can dictate. style of play than they have they have a chance to win this game. But if Pavier.
Diego Pavia, the Vanderbilt quarterback, can go off a little bit and play his kind of game, which is. both running and passing. And LSU can't really slow them down very much, and they're going to have they're going to be in for a long day. Oh, we know we got some big SEC matchups all throughout the day. Tomorrow, we got Georgia and O Miss.
We got Tennessee and Alabama. Which one are you really looking forward to seeing the most? I guess Tennessee and Alabama because that's such a heated rivalry and Alabama looks like the best team in the league, but this is a really good test for them. And I say looks like the best team in the league because There's enough high quality teams in this league that you can look like it at one, you know, and then two weeks later. you're wondering if you're going to make a playoff.
So Uh for Alabama This is a big game for them. They've been playing very well since that loss to open the season against Florida State. The win at Georgia, of course, a signature win for them. Another tough win on the road against our ranked opponent, Missouri, last week.
So They'll have to be ready to go. Uh they've been playing very well on their home field in particular and this game's at home.
So I like Alabama. Yeah, Jerry Palm is here with us from palmbrackets.com. com You know, it's an interesting part of the year because we can start to look at coaches. Obviously, we had James Franklin who got the boot, and now there's these conversations about Matt Ruhl, and then you think about Napier. It's hot seat time.
And then we get Kurt Signetti. With with the you know, it's like, hey, you're not going anywhere. They give him a big old contract. Are you surprised at the timing of it or was it all kinda tied into Penn State?
Well, Penn State maybe in particular, but it could have been any job of that caliber that opens up for whatever reason.
So like Florida, for example. Could have you know, if that job opens up, You know, that's a that's a good job in the SEC.
Now, the program's not in great shape at the moment, but he can go in there as we've seen. If you can turn Indiana football around, you can turn anything around. 'Cause you know, I'm from Indiana. I went to Purdue, but You know, Indiana football has been a laughing stock for Yeah. You know, they've had a few moments of glory, but Really, it's it's just been you know, one win seasons, two win seasons, just miserable.
And You know, now you've got a coach who comes in and turns it around on a dime. And they're have they have to be considered now after that win at Oregon. one of the three or four favorites to win the national championship. And you know, Indiana's a basketball school. They care a lot about their basketball.
Their last national championship. Was 1987. And if you go back in time and you tell some Indiana fan that maybe you'll win another national championship someday, but the football team has to win one first. Yeah. Nuck.
They're gonna look at you like you got three eyes in your head or something. It's yeah. But that might be what happened. You know, in the end got a chance to win the whole thing this year.
So Yes, Indiana, um was going to move quickly to lock him up, especially with the Penn State job already open. Um but they were probably going to do this anyway. just because of what he's already done. Uh they want to lock him up. whether it's a Penn State job or some other job that comes along next year or whatever, They want to have him locked up.
Yeah, we know they're going in one direction, Indiana is, and Penn State is going in the complete opposite. We know Matt Ruhl is currently busy this minute taking on Minnesota and the Gophers. Do you think there's any chance? It may not happen this year, but at some point in time. Do you think he's going to end up back at Penn State or is that job going to go to somebody and they'll never let it go?
Well I mean, I guess he could be a candidate for the job now, although you wouldn't think he's been successful enough for what they're looking for. Um but Maybe. Uh maybe he could end up back there. I guess it depends on how well If he doesn't get the job now. I mean, they're going to hire the kind of a coach where it may not come up.
This is a job that doesn't open up every three years. Yeah. So If they make a bad hire now and the program suffers for it. Then you know, maybe it does open up again soon, but maybe the job's not as good.
So he probably isn't going to get a lot of chances At a job like this, he might not be the right candidate at the right time. Jerry Palm is here with us from PalmBrackets.com. I want to switch over. We've talked about quite a few quarterbacks, but even if you look at Indiana with Mendoza, we saw what they just did against the Oregon Ducks and more. We've had some names that have kind of popped up as Heisman candidates that weren't names like Manning that we all expected before the season started.
What are your thoughts on some of these emerging quarterbacks?
Well, we're seeing some great players. We mentioned one already.
Now his team may not be good enough to get him Heisman consideration, but Diego Pavia has done a lot to put Vanderbilt football on the map. You've got, excuse me, Ty Simpson. Yeah. His first year in the position has really emerged and grown as the season has gone on. had a rough first game against Florida State, but has really carried Alabama and won some high leverage games.
So Uh yeah, these uh we've got some young quarterbacks out there. Um The Notre Dame quarterback is it's uh Carr. Um And a mater in Oklahoma, even though he missed a couple of games with an injury, is a guider could. could the guy that could play himself into Heisman consideration. He has missed enough time to really be be eliminated as a candidate.
And so And he was really hot to start the year.
So now we'll have to see if that injury is hampering him, if he's playing hurt, that it hampers him. Mater, even though Oklahoma may not be a national title contender. is the kind of quarterback that um that can make some noise and possibly be part of that hyphen conversation. Hey, Jerry, one thing that really stands out to me, and I won't forget it, and one of our callers hit us up about a month ago when Arch was going through his downs, and he said that he only has this job because of his last name. And I just had to kind of roll my eyes and go, oh my God.
What are your thoughts on Arch's development, the expectations, how he's handled things? What say you?
Well They he He certainly has had some problems And I don't know if it's the expectations. Or if it's just you know, they played some pretty good teams. They they start the year at Ohio State, and Ohio State makes them look bad.
Well, Ohio State's going to make a lot of teams look bad. It wasn't just Ohio State. There were some teams that were not that good. uh where you had rough stretches or you had The UTEP game, I think he had like 10 straight in completions at one point. It's a game that they won.
Um I think he's starting to show signs of getting better and getting more comfortable in the position. Freshman quarterback. at a big name school like Texas is a tough job. And some guys handle it better than others. When your last name is Manning, You're under the microscope all the time.
Some guys handle that better than others. Um But I you know, he's still a pretty talented kid. And w Let's give him a full season before we write him off completely. But I think we're starting to see signs of him coming around a little bit. He played well in the Florida game.
Um for the most part.
So you're starting to see some improvement.
Well but you know there's some bigger games ahead. They beat Oklahoma, so that was huge for them. And for him. Uh and you know It's uh it's still another half of a season to go. Yeah, we got plenty more football in front of us.
Hey, Jerry, thank you so much for the time. Tell everybody where they can follow you and all your work. Yeah, it's palmbrackets.com. Football season, of course, in full swing. And then college basketball starting at the beginning of the month, I'll have a a preseason bracket and be following that all the way through the final four As well.

Some of the games that we got tonight. We got Miami and Louisville and then Later on, we got North Carolina and Cal. We got the Bulldogs and Omiss tomorrow. We got Tennessee, Alabama. We got a lot to look forward to.
So it's going to be a good weekend on the college football side. If you missed that conversation with Jerry, Go ahead and hit rewind on the free Odyssey app. How about this? Toronto still leads Seattle 2-1. It's the top of the eighth.
The Toronto Blue Jays are trying to put some more runs up on the board to give themselves some space. And then we just had the first pitch a few minutes ago out in Los Angeles as the Dodgers are trying to win. in Advance to the World Series. They can go ahead and sweep the Brewers tonight. And the part that sucks for the Brewers It can come from the arm of Shohei Otani.
Okay, right now, it's nothing, nothing. But Shohei Otani is on the mound. The last time that he pitched was out there against the Phillies in game one of the NLDS. Otani, six innings and nine strikeouts. He gave up three runs.
I mean three runs in six innings not bad, striking out nine, and Dodgers ended up winning that game. five to three. And could you imagine Sh Shohail Tani hasn't been all that good here? uh in a in a stretch wi when it comes down to the bat. Actually, a couple of days ago he had an R B I single to kind of wake things up.
I think he's been one for seven up until that point. And then yesterday, he pretty much opened up the game and opened up the scoring by having a triple And then Mookie Betts immediately drove him in.
So Shohei Otani showing a little bit of sounds of life. Uh when it comes to being at the plate Let's see what Shohei Otani does tonight on the mound. Dave Roberts, the manager of these Dodgers, he talked about putting Otani on the mound. Today now. He's a unicorn.
Um I don't know how he manages it. Uh Every minute of the day is accounted for. He's very prepared. And um His last outing in in uh Philadelphia was a good one, six innings. I think he gave up three runs.
And so I expect him to be good tomorrow, be focused, and put forth a good effort at the bat, too. Hey, listen, Dave, forget about all that. Tell me about The fact that you're about w well, not about you're one game away. From going back to the World Series. Again, and you've been able to go up 3-1, and Otani is stunk at the plate.
We're pitching really well. We're playing very good defense. Um Obviously, Shohei's not performing the way he would like or we expect, but I just know how big of a part he is to this thing, and we got a long way to go, but I just like the work that he's putting in, and I'll bet on him all day long. Yeah, I would too. I I would too if I'm paying you seventy million dollars a year.
I gotta be optimistic about somethin'. Pat Murphy. He's the manager of the brewers. His team might have already quit. They may be ready for vacation.
Pat Murphy had this to say about bein' down in a old three hole. That team's pretty good.
So are we. We haven't shown our best foot. Um Like I said, if you would have told me the Dodgers are going to score 10 runs in three games, What would be the the the score if you said two to one us or one to two. One and two. Them You know, you wouldn't say 0-3, but we...
We haven't got the clutch hit. We haven't. We've been a little bit Um you know, foreign to how we've played in terms of contact. Oh, yeah, we haven't.
Well, we see that. Ain't nobody hitting nothing worth a damn out there right now.
So they're down 0-3. They're basically cooked. And then you got the Dodgers. They're getting ready to celebrate, probably moving on. If they don't win today, they'll probably win tomorrow.
That's another game in Los Angeles. I don't think we're going to get what we got out of uh Seattle and the Blue Jays where the series ends up being tied. I think that is way, way, way past. And so Tommy Edmond on the Dodgers, he was asked about being close to another World Series. We're really excited.
It's been a bit of a trying year. We didn't play the best during the regular season, but we're getting hot at the right time and just one went away and hoping we can finish it off tomorrow. Yeah man, they're gonna win another championship. Come on now. What are we doing here?
Well, I n well yeah, I think they're gonna win the championship. Da bacha, doesn't it look like that way the closer and closer we get? Yes, because every time I see these other teams, like the Brewers, they're already done. If you look at the Mariners and the Toronto Blue Jays series, too. It's going to be drawn out.
So the Dodgers are going to have healthy pitching, rested pitching. And their lineup is in a little bit of a cold streak, so maybe they get some time to refocus. It doesn't seem like any other team has a chance at this point. And speaking of a chance. Looks like Seattle is continuing on.
Cal Raleigh just blasted a home run, went over the left field wall. This game is now tied at two runs apiece In the eighth inning. The Seattle Mariners have no outs. This game is tied once again. This has pretty much been what this series has looked like over well, not over.
over the past couple of games, but It's close obviously now. It's either all or nothing. And right now we got a good one. 2-2. Toronto and Seattle are tied.
Cow Raleigh who led the world in home runs this year. broke the record as a catcher. Just blasted one to left field. And so let's see if Toronto goes out here. And unravels.
Oh, this is a good time. Bacha, this is a good time of the year, man. I love this time. It's cold. There's good baseball on, basketball starts up, and there's potentially good football too with the chance.
Cold, speak for yourself. Nobody told you to live up there. It's 80-something degrees here. I like the cold. I don't know.
You can stay in the warm temperatures. I like being in fifty degree weather. Oh, damn Well, I do too. I like all the weather, but I don't mind it when it's 80 degrees and sunny. I don't mind that.
I do. It's not fun. You don't like 80 degree weather? Don't. Anything above eighty anything eighty and above is not for me.
It's g it's gorgeous. Yeah, no. I I like to wear hoodies, I like to wear jeans and sweatpants, so Okay. Yeah. I do too, but I I don't mind uh, you know, shorts and a hoodie.
I mean, oh well. Damn, botcha. Are you a Grinch? You just like a weathertime Grinch? No, I just, the summer is hot, and the spring I have allergies, so I like the fall and the winter.
So it's like just connects me with good times. What do you do in the summer? Do you have like one of these personal fans? What do you do? No, I just deal with it.
I just.
Okay. deal with don't I just don't love it. All right.
Okay. Good good to know. Never invite you to Atlanta. Good to know.
Okay. Damn.
Well, I don't I don't hate Atlanta. I just don't like the heat. It's not always high. It's it's temperate. W so what do you do i in December in December, it could be seventy degrees in the daytime, it may be, you know, forty at night.
You just gonna go out at night time? No. I go in the daytime. It's not about eighty. Oh, eighty degrees.
Okay. All right.

Thank you, Botcher. 888710-4ISN. That's 888-710-4ISN. Yeah, we'll keep you up to date on both of these games as they continue on. The Dodgers and Brewers.
Zero runs as of yet. They just got started. Did Shohei Otani just blast a hole? You gots to be kidding me. Oh my God Bacha Shohei Yotan.
Did you see this man just hit a home run out the damn place? I didn't see the homer, but I heard about it.
So I am just. Yeah. Strikes out the side. And it's a homer, you can't teach the- You can't make He's is he is he the best baseball player? Is it too it's too soon?
When it's all said and done, Is he not going to be the best baseball player ever? You could argue if he wins it this year, he probably can be up there in the debate just 'cause He has a ring. Four MDPs. Is a pitcher The only thing you can go against him is that his defense is isn't existent. He doesn't need no stinking defense.
It is just crazy to me. It's just we have never seen this before. ever Like he just got off the mound. and just went into the the the batter's box. and just crank the home run.
Basically, out of the damn place. If it didn't go over that little gazebo in right field and Dodger Stadium, it went pretty far. We have never seen anything like this. in baseball ever. and he is a monster.
And Shohei Otani is just a He's a beast he's a beast of all beasts. We haven't seen I don't know if there was a player that ha would would be able to do this But they certainly uh gave Shohail Tani. and they gave him the uh the green light. He said, I'm not coming over. unless I can go ahead and do both.
And in t a game like tonight, You want to talk about how quiet he's been? You can throw all that out the window. Shohei Otani is really showing why he's the. Greatest baseball player right now? Man, he's already making the case.
He's already. one of the greatest of all time. We'll keep you up to date. Dodgers lead the Brewers thanks to Shohay's home run 1-0. Toronto, Seattle tied at 2 runs apiece.
