00:01:35
Speaker 2: Well they're playing in Sacramento. We'll explain. Is a story about them hobo A transition was some of their future leaked? We'll explain. But right now we're wrapping up with your phone calls. At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, there was a playoff baseball game between West Nassau High School and Sewanee High School that garnered national attention for which is unexpected for a three a far high school baseball game. But it's because they had the prom and the playoff game scheduled at the same time. I mean, that's just terrible planning by the school district and everyone involved. But if you read all the comments, you know they can't have the district like coordinates six hundred different proms for the playoff, right, Why I can't do that? And then there's a lot of feedback too, like you're really overrating what a prom is nowadays. I understand the promposals are a big deal, but a lot of people goof off of them and they head off to another party anyway.

00:02:29
Speaker 1: Like, but I'm saying that they go You've been talked about it.

00:02:31
Speaker 2: Promposals high school sweets, that's a big thing. I get it, But yeah, I also think that your girlfriend would understand it. You're committed to a team and you can meet up later on. You think like a high school romances though, because because guess who missed it? Five seniors missed the game, right, and their ace pitcher who would have pitched, also missed the game. Let me try to find he has a zero nine to four era, this kid, and he missed the game and they got clappered. Senior pitcher Fisher it skip the game as well, and they got beat as a result. So it became a story of what would you do? It's not an easy decision, no, that's for sure. I mean, but if you read the feedback, my god, it's so divided. Well, because it's a it's a I look at it this way. No bigger competitive guy than me. But I'm going with the problem. You have one prom. You keep saying that, but you're going to the prom, so maybe you know, maybe you're not.

00:03:24
Speaker 1: I would priority I look back and I say, it's.

00:03:26
Speaker 3: Not even on.

00:03:27
Speaker 1: It's about commitment, not competitiveness.

00:03:30
Speaker 2: Like you make a commitment to the team, but you also make a commitment to yourself and your girlfriend. And you know, like you said, you live one time. You have one senior prom, and some people are like, didn't even go to prod then, dude, as a high school kid, baseball was everything to me. But you know, I think today my high school girlfriend, I would have found it very hard. I think you were just horned up because my night wasn't that special and I had a wonderful high school relationship. So I'm not downplaying the importance of that. Either depends on how good you are too. Like I said, I I really think that uh factor. Don't make it sound like it's not like if you're a team that like leaked into the playoffs and you were gonna get whooped, or you know, like I said, if your scholarship here is any way you were telling a sixteen seventeen year old to me to miss a baseball game.

00:04:17
Speaker 1: I don't think that was happening.

00:04:18
Speaker 2: But when all your friends are going in a limo or a party bus, let's be honest, and you're drinking, you're sneaking. I wouldn't have cared about that nowhere near as much as getting my name and facing the paper for.

00:04:28
Speaker 1: The playoffs paper.

00:04:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that went make way more to me. You didn't get your picture of paper in high school if you played I lived in New York, the Daily News. It's not the printing high school results they did for me. You would never in the Daily News or New York Plutar Ledgers the same equivalent, your bonehead the week ass Jersey paper. No, it's the same thing, You numb skull, you chud. You think the Jersey thing. You think the biggest paper in New Jersey, New Jersey. You think the Jersey has the same cloud as the New York.

00:04:56
Speaker 1: It's the same.

00:04:57
Speaker 2: It's not the same cloud because it's a different state. But if you're making all state, what do you think they're posting that in the newspaper. That's what I went to. I think you go to the obviously it's online and different. Now go to the problem and make memories. You know you played ball bars. You're missing my point. It would have been a tough sell to tell a kid whose life revolved around baseball to miss the game. I don't think I would have the more I think about it. It's not an easy decision, but I don't think I would have. So you can't tell me you're the most competitive guy ever, but you would have chose to corny party. I'm the one guy in the room that still plays competitives because you're still searching for that glory. I guess no, because you would have just sports the party bus, get out of here. That's that's that's lame to me, now I think about it. You don't enjoy your cumber bun. I'm trying to win a game at that stage of my life. No, cumber Bun, I said, what'd you say, cinnamon buns? Cumber Let's go.

00:05:47
Speaker 1: To your phone call. Let's start with Boise Bob, Boise Bob. What's up? Man?

00:05:53
Speaker 2: Hey?

00:05:53
Speaker 4: What's up?

00:05:53
Speaker 5: Fella's rich? I can't I can't believe.

00:05:55
Speaker 6: I get to crack you twice in the same week.

00:05:59
Speaker 2: Hey, well, you have to remember when Rich thinks to everything he says is correct because he's rich. I mean facts. Yeah, but that's not true. Hey, Boise, Bob, just here as you said. It doesn't mean because he rich is so high in himself, He's like it must be great because I said it. That's not how it works. There's two sides to the story. You think you're not the most arrogant guy, because if you've got to put yourself in a in a kid's mindset whose life revolves around sports, a boy, a boy that revolves around you think boy cares about dancing at a prom, dancing, or like getting booty from his high school sweetheart, drinking and drinking in a limo drink. The news to you high schoolkids are getting booty regardless of the problem. Okay, you know what, I want to slim your head against the counter. Let's go the phone call Hey care for Yeah, Bois, Bob is still there?

00:06:41
Speaker 1: Oh Bob? Hey, sorry, sorry, Mom and dad are fighting. Hi, Bob. Good Rich's problem is he's too busy trying to make sure out of a ran on somebody's wrist so he can get.

00:06:52
Speaker 5: A little action.

00:06:54
Speaker 1: Dude can chase tale the rest of your life. You can only chase glory but a few moments in your lifetime, no matter how big that glory is, for you.

00:07:03
Speaker 7: To go play the game.

00:07:04
Speaker 2: Man. That's how at first I saw how difficult of a decision this is for high school kid. The more I think about it as a seventeen year old or a kid playing varsity, there's no way I'm missing that game.

00:07:16
Speaker 7: You need some Albundie stories, Rich, All right, let's go to.

00:07:20
Speaker 2: Vegas, especially if the team is counting on you, because there's one picture who.

00:07:24
Speaker 1: Was the ace?

00:07:25
Speaker 2: If he's such an ace that we'd be hearing about this kid getting a scholarship, you be hearing about this kid he's already been drafted.

00:07:31
Speaker 1: Dude, he had an under one era. He's their guy.

00:07:34
Speaker 2: I don't know how competitive this you said, this is like a small town matter because it's all they know. So you know, it might not in the grand scheme of things. Yeah, a big deal, but it's a big deal to them in that town of wherever they are in Florida. Let's go trip in Vegas is back trip.

00:07:52
Speaker 6: Hey, gentlemen, Rich, you know I love you. Cavino here my guy always. Hey, I had a chance, I already had everything booked for the prom done, We got invited to this prestigious golf tournament, and then at that tournament, I actually signed my letter of intent and we won.

00:08:05
Speaker 1: So I could care.

00:08:07
Speaker 6: Like the callers said, glory is glory. I mean, girls come and go. What happened to glory was what was exciting for me.

00:08:12
Speaker 2: But you're guaranteeing some type of glory. What if they would have got whooped? What if it was like a lackluster game.

00:08:16
Speaker 7: They like, like, we don't know until you play the game. I mean I can't.

00:08:21
Speaker 2: It would division based on what if we lose. It would have eate me alive to not be there for the team. I think, all right, And like I said, what would you tell your kid, because you know we're adults now, I would have I would leave it up to my kid, Hey, this is your decision, but I would I think I would have advise my kid to wear the com you made a commitment to this team. I would tell my kid, you have one problem. You're not going to want to look back and be like I skip my prom. Yeah, but like I said, I think they party afterward the game is like are they are they? I mean that again this is just poor scheduling. I'm sure there should be some adjustment made eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. It's a national story for a reason. For a reason, one.

00:09:00
Speaker 1: Less called let's go to Alabama. Todd, We're never going to agree. Guys, what's up Alabama? Hey, guys, what's going on?

00:09:10
Speaker 7: And so I I played a baseball playoff game and went to the prom same night.

00:09:18
Speaker 1: Well, we started at one o'clock, moved up, game ended up being thirteen innings.

00:09:25
Speaker 7: We won.

00:09:27
Speaker 2: Well, that's what I'm saying that they should make some type of compromise to kids, basically say move the game up. Yeah, they can say to live the perfect life of Alabama.

00:09:35
Speaker 1: What's the name?

00:09:37
Speaker 7: Todd?

00:09:38
Speaker 2: Toabama? Toad Alabama. Todd got it right. I mean they should move the game. This should not be an issue to begin with. I think it's awful to put a kid in that scenario. Choose your senior prom or play in a playoff game like that's that's something a kid shouldn't have to choose. Schedule makers put it in AI, make it work.

00:09:57
Speaker 1: Who else we are wrap it up with Hi?

00:09:58
Speaker 7: Yeah, we wrapped it with Todd.

00:10:00
Speaker 2: Thank you, Todd. Now there's another baseball story which is kind of funny. This is funny and it involves I called them the Sacramento As because they play in Sacramento, but legally it.

00:10:10
Speaker 1: Might be going the mud Skippers stadium.

00:10:12
Speaker 2: What's it called the what I always forget like some sort of like catfish?

00:10:16
Speaker 1: What is it? MUD's Mudcats?

00:10:18
Speaker 2: Mud?

00:10:20
Speaker 1: Not the Mudcats. It's not Sacramento mud Skippers, the scaley Weggs. I got it.

00:10:27
Speaker 2: I always forget rich and I have been there there again to watch them play.

00:10:31
Speaker 1: Right.

00:10:31
Speaker 2: It is Sutter Health Park, Yeah, yeah, but what is the name of the team that plays there, The mud Chickens. No, it's like the mud Mud Mud is it Mutter crust Grabbers, the tough Mutters?

00:10:44
Speaker 1: So they play at a minor league stadium in Sacramento?

00:10:48
Speaker 7: Is the river Cats?

00:10:48
Speaker 1: River Cats?

00:10:49
Speaker 7: There?

00:10:49
Speaker 5: It is?

00:10:50
Speaker 1: That was way off.

00:10:51
Speaker 2: They played at the river Cats same and it's such a great vibe because all the old people in the community are there welcoming you to the ball.

00:10:58
Speaker 1: People sigure your score.

00:11:02
Speaker 2: The people that scan your tickets were like, like really nice seniors that like can't like they're probably have a great time with the bulgey.

00:11:09
Speaker 1: My name's Zebeneezer and.

00:11:11
Speaker 2: It's a really cool ballpark feel, and that's what they're playing until, of course, they make Vegas their home.

00:11:19
Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah.

00:11:20
Speaker 2: But much like the Tennessee Titans, who weeks ago shipped out merch to fans that had a new logo on it and then the team's like, oh, yeah, by the way, that's our new logo. It's very Houston oilers like it was a little I guess you would say, what a misstep.

00:11:39
Speaker 1: I guess.

00:11:40
Speaker 2: There was a posting, and the story today is did the A's really leak the Las Vegas name change in a job posting?

00:11:50
Speaker 7: So we don't know if this is legititer or.

00:11:52
Speaker 2: At least a placeholder name, because there are jobs posted to work for the new Vegas baseball team that'll be there soon the now A's soon to be Vegas whoever. Yeah, and the job postings were listed under hey, do you want to work for the Las Vegas black Fire?

00:12:10
Speaker 7: That was what was in the location on the job posting.

00:12:13
Speaker 2: And people like they were removed and reposted without the blackfire after people caught win. So you know, we speculated, we said, my I remember the answer I went with. I was like they should call themselves the Aliens because they could keep the A logo the Las Vegas Aliens, but go with the a's But.

00:12:33
Speaker 7: Vegas kid in the backyard saw Alien. Yes, tall, you could.

00:12:37
Speaker 1: I mean they already.

00:12:38
Speaker 2: There's so many like Area fifty one, the Vada references like make the stadium almost spaceship, like I mean, the Raiders stadium looks like a room, but you know, like just I think it's a great angle.

00:12:51
Speaker 1: The Vegas fifty ones said death Star Rung. Yeah.

00:12:55
Speaker 2: So so is it gonna be the Las Vegas Black Fire or now that they get a public response, does it backfire because I don't see people really saying that they love it. I think it's actually pretty cool, though, saying some are saying that might be just like like a people holding place, like a holding place, like a marketing firm holding name Vegas black the Las Vegas Blackfire.

00:13:17
Speaker 1: I don't even know what that means.

00:13:19
Speaker 2: I know Danny g looked it up and he said, it's some sort of firm out there, But like, is that a reference to gambling or is there some some sort of Vegas reference that I don't know to that. I do think it's wild that they can't keep the A's the Athletics without some type of like, do you think this is an opportunity for that franchise to restart or do you think it would be a shame to lose a franchise with such a legendary color scheme and name as the Athletics, that that green and gold, that green and yellow, this class I mean that. Why did they say they can't keep the color scheme? I mean they could keep remember say they couldn't keep the name. Then we talk about the very few teams in sports with green, right, yeah, they were the only Yeah in baseball they're the only team. Yeah, So unless you want to count like the Mariners got a hint of green, I think.

00:14:09
Speaker 7: And an update on this, MSN is reporting that the term Blackfire in Vegas refers to a coworking space located near the A's Ballpark Experience Center.

00:14:19
Speaker 2: So very specific, so like a little placeholder of a name. But but I do wonder what would it take and should they try to somehow work out a deal to keep the A's colors and name. It makes me think of you know, you got to keep things like this top secret when it comes to naming a team a business, a baby, a baby, especially because I remember my mom.

00:14:43
Speaker 1: I acted.

00:14:44
Speaker 2: I made the accident of telling my mom, and now you're looking back at you know she was right, because I'm happy with what I went with. But we made the mistake of telling my mom what we were thinking about naming my daughter back in the day. And I sort of slipped in conversation. She's like, what, you're gonna name her of that? And I don't want to say it to offend anybody. She goes, that's a She's like, that's an ugly girl's name. Let's see, let's just put it that like she said something along those lines. I'm like, oh, she sort of ruined it for me. Now, ugly girl's name. I'm not gonna now now I can't name her. That's why. That's why sometimes you don't leave it up to You don't name it up to people. You just decide to put it out there just to see what it was. Sort of buzzed that they gather people. To me, it feels more like a placeholder. I'm just more intrigued. Besides this name Carino do if you were a fan of that franchise, or you are in Vegas and You're like, sweet, were getting a baseball team. Do you like the idea of a fresh go or do you like the idea of no?

00:15:41
Speaker 1: Man, those are historic colors and.

00:15:42
Speaker 2: The athletics if rebranded a little bit could be cool.

00:15:45
Speaker 1: Or do you say no, no, that's I don't want you like, do you look at that.

00:15:49
Speaker 2: Vegas doesn't have any sort of uniformed color. I mean they're black and gold and black and silver and right, so there's no uniform uniformity, like like a Pittsburgh would have.

00:16:00
Speaker 7: Keep the colors. They can change the name, but keep the A As you said, that would be dope.

00:16:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, because there's always that balance cove of keeping tradition alive, but also like starting fresh, like Vegas has an opportunity to really rebrand like new merch, new vibes. You know, Vegas has a baseball team. Do you want to shed all of the history of the A's Or you're like, no, no, there's a lot of legacy there. The Bash brothers, Dave Stewart, Reggie and Jacksony go back to catfish like Raleigh Fingers. I mean, as much as you can, just because you want to pull that that fan base. You know you want to keep as many fans possible as you can and win over some new ones.

00:16:40
Speaker 8: One reason to maybe keep the name was it's not exclusive to Oakland. They were the Athletics and previous stops in Kansas City and Philadelphia, so it's a name that.

00:16:50
Speaker 1: Has traveled to different spots as well.

00:16:52
Speaker 8: So why it would stay with Oakland wouldn't have been in tradition with the actual nickname if you kept it in Las Vegas.

00:16:59
Speaker 2: I'm curious if you surveyed all Athletics fans, would they say, you know, they're moving to Vegas, we're pumped about it. Keep the name or do you think the baseball world would benefit more Camino from like a fresh new like yeah, they're the you.

00:17:14
Speaker 1: Know, the Vegas Alien invaders or something.

00:17:17
Speaker 5: Right.

00:17:18
Speaker 2: Well, my understanding was they couldn't keep the name like I would negotiating, I would at least keep the colors, to keep some of the tradition, because I don't know if you followed what I said. If you're starting a new franchise, you still want to get as many old fans as you can, not just new fans, so you want to keep the old Dave Stewart, Dave Parker, Ricky Henderson fans, the Rolly Finger fans from yesteryear, and then went over new Vegas fans as well.

00:17:43
Speaker 1: So keep the.

00:17:44
Speaker 2: Colors, change the name, and you know, start something new at the same time. But as of now, the rumor is Vegas Blackfire.

00:17:51
Speaker 1: Was this leaked?

00:17:53
Speaker 2: Was this sort of testing the waters to see what the feedback was. I don't hate it by any means, but you guys or just a placeholder? And Cavino do you think I mean, what did the million Dollar Man teach us when we were.

00:18:05
Speaker 1: Kids that everybody has a price?

00:18:07
Speaker 2: So I mean, if they want the athletics name, yeah, they can negotiate, They could get it. It just has a lot of money. There's a lot, there's a lot of flow flowing around. So all right, your thoughts on that. And plus next we play Brainwave. You want in eight seven, seven, nine to nine on Fox, you could play our favorite game.

00:22:53
Speaker 7: I didn't get to go to prom and uh and I've got your back on that one for sure.

00:22:58
Speaker 2: Well you know, I thought about it. More people don't want to go to prom. Probably sucked at baseball. Get out of here, all.

00:23:05
Speaker 7: Right, here we go. I have five rounds ready to go. Our contestant needs to win two of them to be the champ and walk away with a CNR prize pack. I'm gonna ask a question and then give three debatable answers to choose from the six of us in studio. Are going to write down our answers on these dry erase boards. Hold them up, boys, So get onto our YouTube channel right now. Then on the count of three, caller shouts out his answer, Isaiah, you got a match with four out of the six of us to win the round or no matter his answer, if all six of us match, he automatically gets that round. Are you ready?

00:23:35
Speaker 2: Yeah?

00:23:36
Speaker 1: Ready, let's go.

00:23:37
Speaker 7: All right, here we go Round one. Let's start with the relationship category.

00:23:41
Speaker 1: Love it, Let's go.

00:23:42
Speaker 7: And by the way, Bursch is here on his last day at FSR.

00:23:45
Speaker 1: Oh, this is a bye bye Bersa moment.

00:23:47
Speaker 7: His better half is here to witness this relationship category question. Which of these is worse when trying to watch a show with your significant other her face is stuck in her phone, she starts comparing scenes to your personal life, or she keeps getting up to do other things. Which is worse? Oh, face in her phone starts comparing scenes to your personal life, or she keeps getting up to do other things.

00:24:16
Speaker 2: And the question is when you're watching a show with your significant right when you're watching a show, HM, got.

00:24:25
Speaker 1: It all writing our answers down.

00:24:28
Speaker 7: And let me know when you're locked in yes, yes, like all right, and we need Isaiah's answer on the count of three, one, two three, stuck in face stuck in the.

00:24:39
Speaker 1: Phone, face in the phone.

00:24:41
Speaker 7: All right. We start with Steve Covino.

00:24:43
Speaker 2: I mean, I think everybody's face is stuck in the phone nowadays. So I'm saying getting up, because that's even more rude. Now, like if you're getting up doing things that, to me, that's more rude. So I said getting up.

00:24:53
Speaker 1: This guy's a clown, Isaiah. I'm with you.

00:24:55
Speaker 2: When you're watching a show and you're trying to follow a plotline, even if it's a reality show, and you look over to me, you're putting your phone down. The guy that had fourteen hours on his phone last week, Dude, I put my phone.

00:25:05
Speaker 1: Down, and I'll turn to my wife. But can you believe and she's looking at her phone.

00:25:08
Speaker 2: I feel disrespected phone.

00:25:11
Speaker 1: All right, that's just the way of the world. You know.

00:25:14
Speaker 2: They're actually making shows that are dumb. You could watch along with your phone.

00:25:19
Speaker 7: All right. We go to Dan byer facing phone. There you go, all right, two points four we go to bursh uh yeah.

00:25:26
Speaker 5: So this was this was hard to answer with my wife standing right in front of me. So I think probably what would be the worst out of these three is like when the villain in a show does something and she turns to me and she's like, oh, this is like the time when you did.

00:25:42
Speaker 1: This, right, huh yeah. Isn't that terrible? So I said, personal life on this show, oh, sort of like what she watches Bridgerton, and she's like, you are not.

00:25:51
Speaker 7: I was close to agreeing with Bursch because I don't like those comparisons either, because it takes you out of the fantasy of the show too. But I also said facing phone because I do cove I do put my phone away. When we're trying to watch an episode of you Know, Your Friends and Neighbors and I look over and she missed something because she's looking at you know, online shopping.

00:26:11
Speaker 1: Ny. What I'm saying is I sometimes look at my wife.

00:26:13
Speaker 2: Cavino makes one of because I say I look at my wife but for a reactionually, oh my.

00:26:17
Speaker 1: God, babe, And if she's not feeling what I'm feeling, because she's scrolling.

00:26:21
Speaker 7: All right, well, it all comes down to Iowa Samuel, right now, I.

00:26:24
Speaker 1: Thought it did?

00:26:28
Speaker 9: I think though, when you're actually missing part of what you're watching, that's the worst. So I said, keep leaving.

00:26:36
Speaker 7: So Isaiah doesn't get that round. But sorry, Isiah, got a few more here, a few more trust Isoa.

00:26:41
Speaker 1: Sam's girlfriend goes out to the shed in the backyard.

00:26:45
Speaker 7: Yes, are you all right? Round two? Let's go to the lifestyle category. This is fitting because of what's happening on our show next week. Which is the better vacation destination, Rome, Maui or Tokyo. These are all listed as a top three favorite destinations, Rome, Maui or Tokyo. Let me know when you're locked in?

Speaker 7: All right, Isaiah?

00:27:16
Speaker 1: One?

00:27:16
Speaker 7: Two, three, go Maui, he says, Maui. We go in reverse order. We start with Iowa sam been a Mali beautiful spot. But I said, of Rome, food man, come on the story. But history man, nothing beats Maui. So he gets a point from me. All right, what say you burshuh?

00:27:37
Speaker 5: Yeah, I figured you would say Maui. I think that's a strong answer. I was in Tokyo A couple of weeks ago and I loved it.

00:27:47
Speaker 7: Yes, was your honeymoon?

00:27:50
Speaker 1: Right? Yes? Yeah it was?

00:27:51
Speaker 7: dB.

00:27:53
Speaker 1: Give me Rome. That's all right, Jim Romero, alright, mathemat he's out right. But what you say, Rich, I mean Maui. I'm with you, bro.

00:28:06
Speaker 2: That's where Rich does his favorite sex move. That's when the kids are sleeping. I call it the Maui plowy.

00:28:13
Speaker 1: You don't have to beat that, Salmon. I'm letting it go.

00:28:16
Speaker 7: Would you say? Covino?

00:28:18
Speaker 1: Tokyo's great? I've been there.

00:28:20
Speaker 2: I'm actually going this week and then I'm going to Korea after that. Wow, Now he's great. I've never been to Rome. It's got to be Roman. It sounds like more historical. And I don't know it's You're not going to North Korea?

00:28:33
Speaker 1: Are you?

00:28:34
Speaker 7: No?

00:28:34
Speaker 1: Actually yeah, I'm getting a Kim Jong un haircut.

00:28:37
Speaker 7: By the way, please support our show next week when Dan Byer and Moncy Phil d it. All right, so we go to round three. You need to get on the board here, Isaiah. I'm gonna go to the sports category. All right, listen to these choices and I'll repeat them, but listen closely. What's worse being the pitcher who gives up a clutch homer and and then the hitter bat flips being the defender in the who gets dunked on and posterized, or being the linebacker who gets trucked and pushed backwards into the end zone by a running back. Sorry one more time. Yeah, so the pitcher who gives up a clutch homer and they hit her bat flips on you being the defender in the paint who gets dunked on and posterized, or being a linebacker who gets trucked and pushed backwards into the end zone by a running back, which is worse. Locked in All right, all writing our answers down, Locky.

00:29:30
Speaker 1: Doodl, Dan, let me know when you're locked unlocked locked.

00:29:35
Speaker 7: Isaiah on the counter three one two three, dunked on posterized, he says, posterized. Do we start with Steve Covino.

00:29:44
Speaker 2: It's gotta be dunked on, posterized. That's a lasting image. You're posterized. You're embarrassed.

00:29:49
Speaker 1: It's like you just got dunked on.

00:29:52
Speaker 2: Boom, all right, Rich, you know now that you're saying it. They make posters of dunks like I remember my friends would have the John Starks dunking over Jordan Poster.

00:30:03
Speaker 1: But I feel like you.

00:30:04
Speaker 2: Could just be badfooting and it's it's not as embarrassing. I feel like, if you're a pitcher on the mound and you give up a key home run, to me, that's like, oh, there's no more empty feeling if you were pitched in any level. If you give a home home run up, you feel like a piece of garbage.

00:30:19
Speaker 8: All right, we go to Dampier Lucky to save had all three of these happened to me and my my high school career. Posterize the point, and we go to.

00:30:30
Speaker 5: Bersh I said, dunked on, No, that's what we need one more.

00:30:35
Speaker 7: I also said poster just for fun, Sam, what did you say?

00:30:41
Speaker 1: I also said the defender in the pain getting dunked on?

00:30:45
Speaker 7: All right? Halfway halfway to see an our prize pact for Isaya in Boise. We go to round four the music category. Which of these instruments is the most impressive to shred on in front of a live audience the drums, the saxophone, or the piano?

00:31:02
Speaker 1: Easy?

00:31:03
Speaker 7: You think?

00:31:04
Speaker 2: So?

00:31:04
Speaker 7: There's a lot of arguing online about this music category. Which of these instruments is the most impressive to shred on in front of a live audience. The drums, the saxophone, or the piano.

00:31:15
Speaker 9: Locked wait, there's a there's an instrument missing where that term shred actually comes from.

00:31:20
Speaker 7: That would be a runaway Okay, thanks, So we're all writing our answers down all right, all right, and Isaiah, we need your answer on the counter three one two, three drums, he says, drums. All right, we go in reverse order. We start with Io Samuel.

00:31:42
Speaker 9: I think this is a personal favorite, I said, the saxophone. No Clinton, I love you, I love Kenny g I love a good sax solo. Man, it gets me going? Is that Baker Streets?

00:31:59
Speaker 1: Can you isolate that? But the way a good sax solo gets me going?

00:32:03
Speaker 7: But the question was the most impressive. I feel like there's a lot of impressive drummers, but when someone really gets going crazy on the piano, we were just talking about still dri I said, piano. All right, we go to Bursch.

00:32:17
Speaker 5: I think when you go to a show where there's a drum solo baked into the show, where the rest of the band leaves and there's I've never been to a single show where that's happened, and it's not been impressive. So I said, drums, I said, drum.

00:32:29
Speaker 7: Point all right, TV.

00:32:30
Speaker 8: I've never been to a show where I didn't leave when the drum solo started.

00:32:33
Speaker 1: So I said, sax saxophone.

00:32:37
Speaker 2: Say well, I feel like you could fake a drum solo. You could give me a pair of drumsticks that I could be like. And I played the saxophone in high school. Not impressive, Billy, Joel, He's a piano man. Alicia Keys plays a piano. There's nothing more pressive than someone on a piano. Guys are bavoon talk good? Jar is number one.

00:32:58
Speaker 1: Piano's drums easy, It's the easiest.

00:33:00
Speaker 2: Answer is drums. There's nothing more impressive. Dan, I can't believe you get up in the middle of the drum, Soel. Sometimes they have dueling drum players. Sorry, dueling drum bar.

00:33:09
Speaker 1: It's a doing piano bar, you clown, Who do you are? A crocodile rock boy?

00:33:12
Speaker 7: Nobody hears on the same brainway. Yeah, Isaiah, I'm sorry. There's only one category left. You need to to win, so that ends your run. Here gives us a couple of minutes to say goodbye to Bush doesn't didn't.

Speaker 2: And like Danny G said, this is a farewell and a goodbye to our good pal Burshie boy, Ryan Burschingery. Uh tremendous run here at Fox Sports Radio. He was walking on in these hallways long before we got here. Yeah, and Jay Stu, I know you, Uh you wanted to say your own farewell, Ja Stu.

00:35:35
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Jay Stue to the show. First of all, thanks for having me on your show.

00:35:38
Speaker 7: I love being on this program. I will be on the program all next week with Dan Byron wants to bond.

00:35:42
Speaker 3: All right, that's j Stu. But it's not about me. I'm not gonna make this about me. I'm gonna make it about Ryan Berschinger. I'm gonna speak for the network here for a second and say that nobody is nicer and nobody laughs at your jokes harder than Ryan Berschinger job so interpersonally, he's just a great to have around and he's going to be missed professionally speaking. The very first person that I met when I walked in the building at Fox Sports Radio five years ago with Ryan Berschinger. He was assigned with teaching me the ropes, showing me the place. It realized it kind of it dawned on me like six months later that Ryan Berschinger could do my job, and he was told to train this new guy to do a job that he was qualified to do. He was completely gracious and unselfish. He could have resented me, he could have sabotaged me, but he was so generous and that lived out for the next five years. He's a professional, he's proactive. He takes the initiative in this creative space that we all exist in. You want somebody to bring you ideas, you want somebody to ask you if they could help. Ryan Berschinger does that. Anybody could just show up and do what they're supposed to do. Ryan Berschinger went above and beyond that, and he became the one word that all of us try to become when we leave a shop, and that's irreplaceable. If that's a word. Yeah, that replaced Thank you.

00:37:08
Speaker 2: Hey, you all said Jay stew And, Man, you're gonna be miss Ryan for sure. But I don't want to take any time away from dB because you guys had a long run too, right, I mean over ten years together working?

00:37:21
Speaker 1: Yeah we did.

00:37:21
Speaker 8: Yeah, So I've loved working with Ryan throughout those years, even when he started as an intern. So I know he's off to bigger and better things, but he is someone that I trusted wholeheartedly when we were ever doing shows or working together. So he will be sorely missed. He's made a lot of friends here, we saw with everything that I told him, I said, I'm going to miss him more as a worker than an actual friend, because that's how good of an employee he was.

00:37:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, I gon to miss him laughing at all my bad jobs. You're were right about that, Jason. I thought the same thing, like, what a guy to laugh at my bad jokes?

00:37:52
Speaker 1: I also thought Covino was throwing to me because they do have an update to do.

00:37:55
Speaker 8: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, got DV Yes, I just have to tell you because brandon Ingram is out. All directors will be without brandon Ingram for Game six.
