Opening Segment

If it's funny -- make the turnoff like it and in the -- I used to do this all the time. And -- taken in once bought holds sign. It says whatever of Springfield in the and you get to this -- and you for the silent way and -- look in the woods in the like a dozen signs that it would do the same thing. Come and diced it's -- from Maine c'mon 95 and go to fly for a area and right at that spot. He posts and over just throw in the woods and give them vote him keep littering you're literally yeah now I now but it was -- it was and we call that. When -- is great biodegradable yeah cardboard in -- like mass and then just throw away and have another sign that would say something and it's --

All wanted to put -- on one in the like you met with Springfield on the first side and flip it over habits UMass slide -- whatever bar you were an embassy.

It's easier with that because if you. And the sciences your destination all the way to where you go yet some people has think they might not want to. Q with you that long -- so they'll say it's we have someone so that says you don't want to go that -- sure I don't mean right yeah at least all the way mid range Justin yeah -- if you want to -- away and they look at my bills and yeah and -- house and halfway -- another sign at the rest of the way -- an expert -- You don't it was able to restore this victory gave the 31 piece of cardboard. One I line on our side. -- that -- checked on from Maine with a friend who abuse kind of scary yeah shuttle's big news views and scary -- and we says the reason. Our don't have and the you've got to go I'd. He does them -- like the wins in weights and I in five minutes later yeah couples like the pretty and it's a woman. Excuse me and giving him as a grinning and you need to. Among my friend came to. It was look. Face and we just popped him yeah. Yeah I was okay. Thanks a lot he. Rate anything that -- now he just looked like he did Evian that your -- breath that use. It -- all time the F holes that whole time I can't believe it and it's like anymore now this. The my what -- last time mussina Hitchcock mystery on the road. I'm. On an -- people don't -- check in if they do I don't think -- picked now. The only time being picked up if you have a truck -- do this wants to mill went apples over pickup truck. And was again with a friend in my and we look should we do. He was tackles and a band wagon the back. To be there to root of the front. I mean it was a couple of cap those two guys in the front -- in the back if you want. Me. With a bad going to be it was the words that but I'm we got. -- I just wanted to get out through -- slowed down jump out we got there and it was like Jim Carrey in Egypt and you'll get an Aspen in dumb and -- that was just parts of me that frozen in the know could you marinated in years just to warm soft fly balls were frozen and we. Guys stops and we literally we. -- committed to get a again like that dead of winter yeah that was like winter but it wasn't in zero degrees probably thirty. When your in the back -- then the windshield. And I was on -- ethnic and this is going to be. Dangers to help your target by him hypothermia wouldn't back here at that price was too cold even Alou would have knocked on the window yes stop. But could do that -- you're at this this last.

Really good engaging story. Proves me you're not that smile always need to hitchhike with a woman. With girlfriend with some person some female that's a good idea to stop all the time. You -- in the woods she -- nights you'd jump at them now in the perimeter now they'll -- him and -- and that's ones it has and yet it. Ever checked with a -- easy. Easy yeah it's indirectly affected I could have my friend dresses one will -- The pick up truck driver and his friends back into in the woman that front that's -- yeah yeah always -- or cute puppy. Like when you go to the park with a -- the long ones can be your friend -- Some people give -- some people don't make it and off the top my -- is is it. Obvious as the nose on your face that Pacman Jones doesn't get it out city and Tim McCarver does yes I would say -- by the way. Take a backseat to anyone in my admiration for Tim McCarver prior to this week and I -- in many cases you know spitting in the win because there's. Web sites -- in my car right annual all like to McCarver he talked to --

Joe Morgan but this probably want from him every time we report Morgan people called -- worse. -- you read -- from the Mike and I am -- there there couldn't be more diametrically opposite two of them. The things we complain about Joe Morgan are the things that him covered that's right and by the way in and they get this many rent. He in his rant against Manny we talked about yesterday I did in the show. He's not back in the end he's promise and again that is that yes -- And we're going to talk about this in the broadcast this is reporters do so they tell the entire story this is not not love him -- not seventy's that's some network exit exit. You know -- this tonight. Could -- east sound sincere he says genuinely offended. As an old -- ball players broadcasters a guy who respects the game generally offended by Manny. And it wasn't just the thing where he totaled. Was it around the corner would -- the sports -- or -- and -- lines you're right back and I'm sure repeated again and we're going to talk about and -- yeah and a -- him. You might not meant that personal -- TV he's but it worked as I look forward. Affect your culture that you better have that tomorrow we and he knows that. It text. And that's iffy yeah that's it protects. -- it even that element to. What to them last night for sports and in the game yeah. However with Joba Joba yeah. -- Joba Joba Joba and -- always will yeah criticized a somethin'.

Try this on for size think about this for a second. Obviously he is diametrically opposed to Joe Morgan everything Joe Morgan lacks this guy past I understand that he talks a little bit too much for some people's -- that's fine. But by and large it looks at things during a baseball game from a catcher's perspective I don't think catchers -- buck Martinez make the best analyst -- they are really kind of in charge of the game you know they're there they're engaged in in how all come together and.

And let's face -- They'll tackle pitch it was some movement sets on yet Joe Morgan but all -- all analysts even Rem dog talks about whether that was the off speed pitcher fast -- we expect this situation it's part right job right. She's not the whole job is Joe Morgan.

Believes so name me I challenge you to name me any other analyst in any sport on any network that would come out and criticize. Beat major superstar or one of the five major superstars in their big one now in the final four yeah manes are ya the number one -- Israel close right.

At least the biggest stock now yeah. And even just criticized them used. A pretty electrically charged were -- a -- he's despite not I don't bothers me year.

I'm a little disappointed. A little bit disappointed in man he let Manny maybe as Manny Lawson who you misunderstood. Like me when it's in some bad choices there's one.

telling me was -- Johnson I don't know I was expecting more aces but he's this -- Which is such a perfect word to describe this half wins. And I couldn't -- a better myself. It's not two months story it's of six months story -- eight -- story right. If an analyst is indeed going to analyze he can't just pretend that Manny was born in this world on July 30. August 1. In dodger uniform report -- light enjoy to the Los Angeles baseball's team that's that's not a whole story.

Can you think of any other -- and any other sport talking about that question that -- that would Phil -- say this anybody might say off the broadcast he wouldn't say on the -- he -- to make himself available to outside the lines of sports and to repeat what he said to have to print -- guys know what Boomer Esiason and that that is actually off that you -- football and a Tony Kornheiser. -- side like that Tony Kornheiser Wednesday in. They've just the opposite you'd never hear that Manny didn't boss that yeah. If you would hear all went cliche after another one state the obvious. Over and over and over and that's what he does. Homicides and obviously I would do you know things have gotten a little Harry's since he got to Los Angeles. I have I not funny and he it's mainly B and -- and fresh and -- today you bull. They did they'd love -- he's brought sweetness and light in the club house but. Boomer wouldn't and and we received today a part time Monday Night Football radio -- by the way there yet ready to be a little bit to supply Michaels didn't like him because he was so good yet rated B a little bit disappointed to -- operate from Kornheiser and Joe Morgan. Fox officials may tell him to tone it down -- you think -- Yeah because. And it and it and it probably tell them to pound. -- true that's true but I would not be a bit surprised if some executive producer little you know. Pregame discussion and says to him with some you know nine -- you're on sports center right no you're on or around the horn and -- eruption outside the lines of taking your shots that -- that. Which style passes America's game and this -- you know this is an an and it all goes well it's can be the Dodgers and Red Sox and we don't want you to. -- this guy in the star in the interest of all that kind of take the luster off of the shining star real on yes yes. Well yeah that's live from the radio I -- that you will not hear about taveras. He won't won't say the word despicable tonight.

That's a good point Willie -- dispute let's say at that such a great were yeah expect. -- but you can medical some like that he can you do it he he could've. He's just Matt Ricky and I was maverick that he could do it in his own way let's face it he's very of rubles he will. Use too many words perhaps in describe -- in in analyze the situation that's okay yeah. I think with McCarver he comes from the heart in this. He won't be reading cue cards in this won't be Barack blow with the teleprompter I think it comes from the I think he's genuinely offended I think he has really should -- can not be legally cannot is if you think Manny was born in this world in July 31. And and all that stuff that before that doesn't.

Matter either way this is nothing new for Tim McCarver he was very critical superstar Deion Sanders what -- that get him that got to make cold ice water shower during this trophy presentation in the locker room and he stood there to Europe Mandy on you're a man doing that right so this is nothing new for Tim McCarver but I will say -- just another prediction. Eight because of the network officials and some executive producer he won't use the word despicable and you also see him or. They will ask him to balance what -- criticism he has of Manny on the broadcast tonight. -- we have a bowl mores of him as a hitter as a subplot as -- as they -- hitter who sets up pitchers as a as a guy who brought a lot of -- sweetness light laughter I'd love to Los Angeles Dodgers there will be this attempted balance because the networks that want this of Manny as a great ball player. In addition there was little package deals that you know to get on -- else -- I'd go to the troops and tells the kids with cancer screw.

I think people more sure about -- his ability yeah and this can't happen here well and is it. Axed radio news that he's a good hitter agreed hitter a hall of Famer though we know hombre which he states states -- it and SI. Mixes it is that's that's what you can't do that. It is respectable and I think I think we have the right Joe -- him covered the -- told what to do that might be told owner yes but covered did one thing by teasing he -- Maybe it incumbent on themselves to get back into it to get to read this it. I love the idea. Listening to me any given to you by the -- guys. Is wonderful preview of things to come he thinks he's a man in the World Series you can say. Go with Boston and the more questions about Boston sure army and he whatever you say. Tell us again -- fine having an LA. I mean just the guy was some -- TV guide but it wouldn't let Mayo -- ball to fall opponents and many eighth though it has happened on use it tell us what it's like to be in LA. If pick if it if he will. If they play Boston what's yours. He will again -- and he will not to be up -- not to Briscoe you'll do. He will -- as he won't be handled the questions. We have that the guy that's in the couple.

What part in Boston will be a bit. It's on them I don't about people who are. My jog and that was it joke about a jog you know to jog and a sometime I jog and out. We have great. It's on them I don't about people who are what does that mean. On on ground balls and on the main job now is that the opposite you know it speaks Spanish jargon and -- you didn't play right right at the bit. By definition. Tim McCarver -- Manny Ramirez I think what he does that LA makes. What he -- in Boston even more Spirit that's despicable mean he could it dominance he couldn't hit it in Boston that if you. Skating either way it's done it this is. That's sad to say he's the one that he committed that -- and are already. Who posted we've we don't -- we left that someone's expense of one day that he couldn't that it grows. By the ocean you should definitely that it -- heroes to that it yeah. I would say your emails and -- phone calls if you wanted piles up and say stop talking about me I'm sorry it's not gonna happen it's not going to happen. Between now and the seventh game of the World Series where I'm convinced the Red Sox are going to encounter with the Dodgers Manny is going to be front and center -- on the mark.

it all is on the cover of sports those two bright leader of a sports and correct the it's the story of tonight's. NLCS game one yeah it's in Philly is a whole bunch of stars involved this game right Ryan Howard's planned. In this game and then deal -- pitch in and Joe Torre's managing but Manny. As someone do well he picks are they say he sucks all the oxygen that I'm -- has sucked all the oxygen out of the NLCS. This is almost like watch in. Kobe Bryant Lakers all those other guys it don't matter up the one guy and one guy only will be watch and that's rare are based.

And don't want to hear about it and if you don't want to know about it and if your tired of it then actually generally alternative is to move to South America like. Oblivion what it -- spill -- to oblivion.

Bad news if you want to break down and analyze the rotation it's been set everyone's happy -- it yeah. Paul Byrd as you point out get cities gets it he's happy to come out of the bullpen he's the long man weeks the starters give -- seven minutes of calling it -- warmup jackets. Game to Estes game or three and seven. You know to offset that tells. Me to say anymore on the rotation. Is rock and check mark law check marks today or tomorrow we -- check marks today and tomorrow gentlemen don't forget what it's like limping he actually participate. It took the second day it's going to be a silent for a debate talked yesterday you know leader but he is very busy today because it's. That's right.

And -- a lot -- to do so to McCarver gets that Pacman Jones does not we will get into that -- and just say. More -- knows more it's it's it's almost eight it's almost pathological yes although helped although.

I think you know people like this and I do too. That was described by one insider. That somebody that. When he drinks he has really violent mood swings at it and when he drinks it seems perfectly appropriate that beat up is.

Already got one as a more by the way don't Jerry Jones hired to keep an eye on him and this and that was the smallest. He beat up the smallest guy on the men's room down in the hotel what you mentioned drinking it is is not his inability. To stay within the bounds oh oh. Just civility and and you know not smash trippers heads in the polls and be around when people get shot the spine and become paralyzed. It's sort of like an addiction to drugs and addiction alcohol this kind of inability to stop himself from himself.

It's certainly sounds that well but he didn't think yes that he could get suspended. But he just you know him before he got suspended. For this for this incident. Also possible big -- eight -- about. I think he's insulated it's his bodyguards mostly being your your friend. And you guys can Duca and it's those outsiders. Have no involvement yet it and not if he thinks it's inside that little -- protection. It's just one of the body -- active kind of thing it's like he's trying to do notice how he sleeps fine after the stuff like that but he sleeps time -- suspended -- Iowa.

He's trying to do this thing about this was Pacman Jones not the guy who was going to New York to meet with Roger Goodell explained his side of the story and try to get himself not suspended and what to do the night before meeting bill. He went restricts smoke some weed and into joint. All the -- valley ranch with the Dallas Cowboys Wednesday. To kind of tell here we're doing here -- apparently -- no public to helmet contact good you know citizens all that -- as -- Roger Goodell. -- Because bodyguard that would be at 1:30 in the morning Wednesday getting ready to go see -- you guys but again make this guide said. Adam it's time for bad yet -- won their awful we didn't -- you've had enough at all or give me another what yeah. And -- and great music maker some pretty grooms. He says non yes games. -- really now she'd get to bed -- the -- coming tomorrow we can't rate you can read an alcohol when Roger walks and creative the cameras in the next install. In the stellar let's that Milloy oh man -- Paulus talked reduce its wants him -- that -- 850 to operate 888525850. Email address Dennis and Callahan WPI dot com Robert cheat joins us at 9 o'clock Mike Mathieu with a sports last in place of me super.

Gal picked out that's not a walker three no good rebound offensively Tony Allen jumped over. It's crawling. -- off to a great waved him back home crowd that basketball all the while both mental telepathy and.

Dozens of fans hitch hiking do you math class. At the ball and there and you know you can now find a way to see -- sixers this last place to get 2 by the way where -- you go as last -- and I have a party Celtics. Pre season opener I'd known. That I don't you know eggs yeah yeah we hired a bartender extent -- it was hard because we're so focused on the game you don't miss anything. When you see the pre season opener villa in a unanimous play inducted. But at the the coach did. Personal matter Orlando yeah island via. It was so. Ago I must've missed that text message for the party Jerry object my guess I'm -- that we are you do it again couldn't Friday night Cavaliers yeah evidence that by the way I did listen a little bit in the broadcast when he noticed the beat you listen on what broadcast. -- Of the Celtics. But I know. I noticed at the beginning of the broadcast. The banner the introduction. Said Sean -- Doing the broadcast it's parker a couple of people involved.

We're we're playing.

It would be like saying and I else didn't like Mike it's -- walks and and coming up next year -- show your WEI.

Admittedly iMac Saturday and well I would or maybe it was later something and they weren't sure -- be there well it is such on -- was part of that team. Curious emotional Canada there which it will max was that I know because. One of the things we did it early on the party we gather on the radio and listened to the Derek Kellogg -- with the big show. -- was you'd better take that. Yes. Kids yes. Tebow on my radio. They did you know that one week where we broke the -- not a block in his replay that. It come back cuts and I mean and bingo and who like listening to Sean Hannity with the Arab pale in front of.

For the Marcus Camby Mike Williams it was -- All -- those big UMass -- yesterday. And -- big Celtics are an area I'll human capital school Celtics tonight -- metres got doubled -- the most liberal start their season that I call the real season. Of course doesn't count right these I don't think that's opening NHL anyone paying attention now. Late night in Colorado touches. -- to be not be worthless tomorrow. Well more -- Celtics last night at Terry Francona yesterday talking about the rotation. Thirty guys drive and and talk and Jerry Remy surprised Daisuke Beckett. Last year Wakefield you're one through four for the Red -- makes all -- now. All the sense in the world you. A little bit concerned that your top two pitchers going you know once each in the Spurs -- games but yup frequently -- opening opened a if they fall behind early in the series. You know quiet he's got the series is going to handle on 45 in four or five games if it I mean that's the door easily and open I understand what he's thinking -- eighteen game regular season. They played 108 -- the rain want to get your big guns back and rotation. I get opened the doors open for criticism if they fall behind early on the other thing is why that everybody wants are as they were going to go on Beckett restaurants ol' regular -- Josh Beckett. Did you watch Sunday night's game I -- I did five innings he -- yes hello yeah.

What -- the point we're twelve pitchers in the game well the most application factor of twelve pitchers my guy Josh Josh Beckett right -- that Britney said yesterday he was almost. Job surprised I asked the question if you had one game to win right now and both Lester and Beckett were totally rested would you go that he can -- Jon Lester -- and that was that was. The theory two weeks ago wool Jon Lester used he Schilling asked and he knows these.

They don't they like to respect the veterans to Casey elect respect. For Atkins that I don't think you could just respect that serious -- that way couldn't. -- will will call you and we need -- you can't had a day's rest you can -- what Paul Byrd and you certainly can do which on KC can -- to the big tree in and Daisuke. He might beat number three of the victory but he still. Eighteen and three. He's still a very effective starters still one of their main guy.

Plus everybody goes on sort out regular rest we'll it was a -- diary of a Beckett gets an extra -- lesser guys aren't UK's right tackle and they like giving guys extra days. And so they'll go 13 three and by the way the top by a rotation there six and one Daisuke Beckett Lester this year do you bats in the race -- their 2 that's a basket -- else against the Angels. And they handle during the regular season yeah. NLCS game one tonight L friends Derek Lowe Nomar of course Manny Ramirez against the Phillies that is why you guys talked about -- tomorrow. You see many respondent was asked the question by the Philly reporters about karma about McCarthy yeah interest and response.

I don't want to Colombo both -- was okay and it doesn't defense. I don't know I -- we'll.

When he talked about he's about this far about this far from shut down. The bush. Before the -- he won't even. Indulge the Boston me now. It's gonna ask you again in the World Series in the questions. Are going to be too much for him you'll avoid those questions. And we'll see Manny we -- along not talking man that's -- Goldman. And it's that's a late night ever -- practiced. He will talk. To select members. LA media but not. Albanians -- Nannies get in trouble and so is -- bullet pac -- Jones another issue parting with ludicrous. Wrapper -- now we'll get all languid body guards look -- the 1130 in the Morey yeah. This is the team consider that the Cowboys threw Jones and -- It's harder it. Still is now in the -- Newman Jerry Jones is good he's really good Jerry Jones explained his decision to provide pac -- Jones 24 man security detail babysitters at the team's expense ABC we haven't faced a -- that really there's good monitoring what our players do. Taking punches from player well. Lucky not paralyzed. Maybe. Daddy punched him maybe one. That beat Pacman out and he's probably its members' -- has -- shoot it that you guys are -- from fans who want to Pacman Jones and Patriot uniform in. Network -- Belichick's system can change Pacman is track record. No part of him and he still on. So will keep and that NLCS game one tonight.
