Urged the fourth and final witness at -- is -- does -- the east peace peace Pete was that time now Padilla are to be announced. He is as you know. Of people there and -- there -- program -- Ian was there are shots was Dennis count him. Be fairly early Brothers. Mike Andrews Jimmy on Dennis sectors -- Andre Tippett rate port and others US on -- such a name dropper is great -- I've I've just to name on the floor under exhibits I imagine those three guys they're -- hall of famers from three different sports it's nice term -- political tame the tiger thing. -- dances and and the international almighty god and gorges and incredible I played it before but. This is the course -- just -- you're gonna spend it in -- Cool you know school it was Matt Lawrence for all the reasons tennis.

Mikey I -- doing good so we know that. I was accepted -- and expect.

Matt from Lawrence -- do laments pretty late for you you know click.

Play it is blatantly actually I'll but I knew that you were not that I had to get -- thank thank you for staying.

no problem -- wanted to stick around just to chat with --

Like I said before any got to come from the -- times chronicle to them to the Boston metro. Come along way.

At WEI dot com WW. And that tax would -- you go. I don't know about knows the president.

That's in question is whether you know holed up on the panic button a little bit here now Red Sox Nation you know they're -- depleted right now. I mean I don't know what else do you expect but and and I accept this before I'll say it again he'll need to take some heat for some of these.

I agree with you I definitely -- and how you say what you expected that people expect them -- you know championing World Series. Yeah.

I mean that's why they have one of the biggest payrolls and and and based on absolutely you know what I mean can't -- don't get me wrong. Alex Gonzales should have never left now.

Where you know you talk about payrolls let's keep in mind okay. That the top five paid Yankee ball players make more than the entire Red Sox team that I think is good for the Yankees.

You know -- they'll I don't I don't I don't really care about that because we have a team that spends money. And we didn't spend the money because we didn't get this year so we lost out on --

But guess what you have a team -- money but they're -- in the third best record in the American League -- the team wanted to teams that's ahead of them is the New York Yankees spent 200 million.

But I think the bigger concern for me I keep going back this is the fact that their payroll is gone down the last few years has gone down significantly. From you know all for a five until right now. And you know until they actually reinvest that money into the team when they're clearly making money even though it's it's a tough economy they're still making money. You know they they need to put some of that money back in in this a couple of gaping holes in this in this a lot of work for you to do in the sassy now that he didn't I don't last year.

He didn't do anything this past Nazis and I'll read -- some ground on TV you. Well you know what Mikey no one called anyone out on this stuff. And panic panic panic aggravates me because you know feel that if -- right he signs Julio -- up costs. -- sides -- true. Who now Francona who never called that it went out to the to the press called them out the other -- told -- the story about -- wanted to come out of the game. So that 16000008.

It was a bull's -- of the Netflix offseason -- yeah I drew in -- that was it that's turned into a disastrous. I season full of activity for the yeah.

I mean I don't I don't settles you know they get mean I don't see how they called boy wonder meet. Boy wonder is no longer I mean he needs to really. Step it up right see his job on the line and every once has Lowell two World Series and they've been in four years or whatever what. But you know what I'll give him credit for one. I've given credit bureaus seven because I know for that's standard kept beating.

That wasn't all did it was a mixture ball and what you're saying -- guys like Johnny Damon Pedro there were a lot of hold -- any interests there you got -- the Bill Miller -- David Ortiz -- Giuliani got. -- folk who was huge it is a mixture of --

If you remember Ortiz was not and that's it. Ortiz has backed it up Jeremy Giambi.

I know -- on our right but that was right but that was part of their plan was to bring in a surplus of those guys and CU the best where the check out of -- I think that was just smart move by them to do that I wouldn't. They gave Giambi the first shot but he was there again that he was gonna get --

You know has as much as a poppy handouts. In mean we were banking on them.

Now you know but now Matt my point is that they were banking on somebody panning out that's why they went with Balkan they've got a bunch of different people -- one -- two of them -- gonna work out. You know they ended up trade and Hillenbrand because they like what they -- Bill Miller and they figured somebody else was gonna come out that this -- was decent and -- Ortiz is really good.

Eight in the real quick and I -- I just like put them I just went on July NHL dot com and put in my name for the lottery for the winter -- and that but I got you know the -- they have does that make him Mikey. Keep the party they -- it January 1.

I am not gonna be a game unless they put me heated boxes and anything that might.

Yeah -- watch the golf yesterday and and don't you love when no names come out of the woodwork. And you know -- like I played it will bring country club you know what is being done I've played it will bring country.

Like somebody who does he pleaded -- it's. Eagle what about the view now. And you know about it. And -- Thompson country club that. The time it and I bet I know people that know people now gets done Anderson. From yards and a mighty large. Island that good evening. -- 90. Quote it just rhetoric. You -- in the exit question J. D. Drew. --

really learn how to catch the ball. You know because he he had that one office fought. And then he had that other thing go wrong Newsweek he's had to -- yet a couple of fielding problems house issues in the outfield feeling the ball and I also think he's 22. He was barely up AAA when they when they you know I'd been up for a little bit but it wasn't -- ever for a long for the column up. I think he's probably still get at least another year development left in the minor leagues I don't. You might be up up and down next year but I don't think he's going to be a permanent member of that team young guys like that. They'd rather have in the minor leagues. You know getting at bats and really developing -- players than sitting on the bench the majors and what he would be as if it up in the majors he would be the guy that would step in if drew got hurt. Or if they wanted somebody to push him and you'll be able find somebody in the free agent market to fill that rules set of the young -- like graphic.

Figure -- Matt thanks go out to Ryan in -- go ahead Bryant. My XP article but I don't run with them pretty good as what to do a lot too quick during the sure -- get it they call up earlier saying that Carlos Pena Giovanni GH. You know pretty all the -- Oman. The -- simplistic to say that I grew up in the top prospect and you get the bulk of Apollo at you know. Nowadays in the game it's like you'd you'd you know you had ten more months of last year and everybody so authorities were drugs by at all.

get traded for a couple times was because people wanted him and I thought he was gonna be like the next great power guy from the left side it took them a little. Bit longer than some others to develop -- he was always. You know highly thought of and and let's face it he's not it's not -- you know hitting three and he's gonna hit fifty home runs strikeouts and he's a low average high home run guy Iraq you know I think everybody always thought he was gonna be that kind of play.

And dot might have a point broad debate saying as I think people are getting a little bit too pessimistic right now both the Red Sox on. I took a look at some of the number even. Basically you know at this point the Red Sox have allowed this the same tomorrow runs as Texas but they score a lot more. And you know we know now that the differential that Iran is let -- a team does is gonna play well on the future. And I and I wouldn't be surprised at all if they adopted by an attack on the also.

I would agree with you but I think -- at the the Red Sox are trending down in the Rangers are trending up I mean it's not a finished season and I think one teams go in one direction Texas. Go and in the other. You know the run differential overall is definitely something you'll look at it. I think the gap is closing between those two teams I just act personally I don't like -- seen the Red Sox.

I mean early trend down until I went three out of four you know I mean it's. So much of it is this is public complaint recently and it's stopped -- take -- their view.

Right the problem is they went three out of four Mikey so with the tigers and people start to get on board and they date equipment this year went -- for -- the problem that. And they look bad and Texas right now.

I -- that the data comes down all -- play in the homestretch at the end of September. I think they can it'll hold off until land and get caught.

I call it a little home -- and exit again this coming Friday in the Aggies and it. -- did it again as a -- you went to a three you've gained a game that's nothing you gotta win all three in order to make it really work there would artery. Because we're gaining one game at this point doesn't mean squat.

Yeah Obama they are completed outlook or country club last week and -- golf course -- it does a bully.

Wonderful golf. And it's a year to raise money for the -- I'm athletic departments are always good you know buddy Jim entering and the median -- You know I saw Jim Talent from red -- today so the guys from international I I have a new mission in life. I wanna play every single golf course. In Massachusetts. Showed that for a bucket list for four. Oh my that's my bucket list.

Like that Mikey and I can find a mall that's like going to every ballpark in the country -- it is. Jim the rest at times yes. The rest ago Jim Jones resting on one chip.

A well and I don't. -- like okay we're gonna do I actually so it missed the last it will Michael -- apps off. It was without a blustery at the at the same thing.

Of great people something right now that this this country needs to you know check it would meet would -- he would tell people. Well why people would -- virtual. -- catch up that big -- Thank you Michael Vick and prominent it is quite.

Michael Vick would loud electric and I thought to get a hundred million doubt that he'd do.

I guess I think you would yeah I've no doubt. And any -- the prepared statement afterwards you know no emotions saying that everything's okay needed me right.

Well -- and many people. Comfortable people in -- let me tell you about every language kicked out all the -- it.

As is this they just drop some knowledge in the human condition -- there. Joe Hagerty replies yeah. -- Pacts on bags on the WE I don't even trip like you don't know who I am you know exactly -- I'm Italian I'm the guy you wake up they -- about every morning.

Well -- is that about a decade. I actually I'm pretty out. Because that was. You can't correct. It.

Wanna like that Obama and how much men and he. -- okay Eddie yeah.

My back -- killed me -- at your mom last night. Bother -- I just guys stop this now.

They've been married yet so that's -- And I'm not married yet so that's pretty impressive and I -- props -- you.

Let me let me tell you that he did you. Everybody who -- okay everybody why yeah why I I -- you speak about Falwell. Was taken by it. --

Clinic -- Flintstones vitamins. Advocate could you go right okay. When well when I noticed. That they fall out of an -- okay. Everybody quiet but Michael I'm not many people thought that people get etiquette is set out of the -- now. Now let's get that real life situation. Yeah yeah.

What we -- exempt you you run a row -- wanna stuff.

I'm gonna rock you people are all the effort to eat human being. And --

And it goes back -- because it.

You're -- human being. Everything else you can get him to get. Yeah yeah yeah yeah mosquitoes what about Chris station's. Quest -- it is Kamal. -- human being everything else. As I get this straight I can't --

Called -- well I don't like to June and unity. Question -- like yeah yeah the actions -- I'm ready.

But. You can't. -- but they got the slot at the.

Of course. Actually one. Line. And it.

I do it and you don't take somebody's. You -- you are you saying it was okay but Michael Vick did -- it was -- like it. Should. And I don't agree with that would back the people that kill animals. Look at.
