" The rest of stating the obvious some things are so easily understood. And readily. Up Aaron's. When you watched Major League Baseball on television. Whether that be the national broadcast last night local broadcast all week long and that there are other things are more. Subtle -- take in my estimation alum animal slow sometimes you four or five days to figure at least the latter. Admittedly -- slow I I I don't -- things as quickly use. Huge Jaret Wright and studio exactly an -- so late Tuesday night early Wednesday morning at the end of the all star game. I watched actually be highlights the next morning up and it's not Tito jumping up and -- school girl. On the dugout steps in the red slot right when the American League finally won kidnapped the do you allow that pressure yeah. -- pitch in who'd use in how long believed Kazmir I don't watch in this and I'll watch in this arms dumps and -- jump up and -- school girls well you know it's. -- he's the manager. Happy but it seems like over the top like rod celebration after media -- thing. I realized five days later after watching. The Red Sox implode in Anaheim. The only shot the Red Sox have at winning the World Series is the home field advantage based on how poorly they play on the road so two -- nobody was doing he -- that that that he'd just helped himself immensely is gave some opportunities games objects right otherwise he has no chip by the way. He's payroll hot."
" Knocking because we know. We know all the and we have written down over the years unwritten rule doubles. He has I would say that over the top through this were. I guess he's established veteran -- do if this were rookie on that. -- somebody not the against him throw at him because he's a pitcher but somebody would be certainly upset. Taking him to task force such an animated. Reaction notes is forty it's not in the game right moment clinch birds includes the title a record there was no. Me and he just kept you know like reaching that I was going to do like Hancock like shoot -- this. Overly excited. This way if you were plying his trade on the reds box. Manny would've pulled him aside by an Allen talked him on the right way to play the game -- did some respect for the game -- did was strike Jacoby Ellsbury elected to bat. I mean yeah it's good and it wasn't there wasn't a lot of Pro Bowl wasn't like -- flawed and run lead. I guess in the olden days somebody might throw him via he would not that close he would write -- or maybe wrote a teammate you know networks sure you're on -- 11 for all they make him and like drill Vladimir Guerrero in the year just because K rod. News of Larry what's going to that. -- to at Everett for us forever to Vlad Guerrero ever and I know -- does not so sure words go and but if he would throw that -- cooler in the -- one Vlad you know yeah wouldn't you swung Andrea -- have a hard time about that right. Understand is why Ochoa hitting near the strike."
" Announcer or analyst last night -- remember well on the TV side of the radio side and back and forth. I -- know Joe -- because the coach and point. And and -- that. Rarely argues strike call. A strike yeah as you know who says that. Joe Morgan Joe says he did this secret Angel -- heard it two -- one well. He still may be a producer it was no. It hasn't made us. Thing which has much more obvious than YT jumping up and school in the dugout after the victory. Is the is the head to head comparison. Not a had Harry Carrey and versus Greg Norman but. They're. Joe Morgan and -- sectors yeah yeah org and Dennis."
" we get to that -- just a quick non sequitur is going to that spent some time on the yeah. Joe Morgan was not. The worst color man I've heard on the network TV broadcast. Of the Boston Red Sox over the weekend Tom Watson did you hear on parliament the bit of baseball so you hear much of Eric Harris now. I mean I -- couldn't believe what I was hearing but he made east -- woefully -- prepared and he's not. Eat I guess he tries to. To do his job like Joe Morgan just as they with a pitch with that they -- to this comparison between their careless and babe Ruth is. Eric Harris went to the monuments or something you know only and he said the only thing those two guys have in common councils being self deprecating that showed how many home runs each. He says -- in those two guys haven't comes -- both played the dodges. And it is kind of sailed by -- I says I miss that. That season where they replace the dodge a late trade in his career I mean it -- guys and up -- I mean he played for the Braves. Lleyton -- Korea it's. Well done. It's actually had to check the record they said. Guys on the network he'd play but the -- Awesome I don't -- for the Dodgers. Like in spring training -- that are. I don't know man -- that he didn't play if the opposite live come from oh oh in the bowl. Yeah he's prepackaged. Right and and he said about five minutes later he said. The smartest thing our team you know did as manager and owner of the Angels was hiring Mike Scioscia. -- and that he was there before Marino. And lo and behold -- two minutes later. Thom Brennaman. They give Brennaman. In the play -- as well -- next hire him but he did keep them. Patrick government he critic James manages he was smart enough to keep Scioscia. Thank goodness it's. It's. Counts is probably make you know a million bucks yet add color and an analysis. Is broadcast. And is bloop -- Abreu played for the -- wrecked. Now him the corrected via social Democrat Tibet and -- was so bad. If that -- they would attached to a I caught and from here. -- stand. Against the open line by name them total brick apartment but. --"
" If by comparison that makes Joe Morgan thinking gave -- was airborne. Not a bad especially especially -- June oh correct so left the real well I guess that wasn't there Joe makes some mistakes that. If he had to correct the mall mean. You six politeness at bat myself here because you sucked and I believed what he said it when he said. Great job by the second base on the on that but it was pop opposite. Obviously more than a million a year actually gave him credit for being right and I got myself. That ball at the ground yeah. Hitless."
" Need from second base -- him that because that ball popped in the air and who was charging but he took off right away. Who did you -- wasn't going to be it was good to excellent lead at second base and."
" Yeah got me I. I was watching gold -- what was Don Imus pop up. Myself I was right Youkilis I built myself but you're wrong Joe was right at Mitchell or. Mortgage should be doing. When the figures so we should be doing radio. Just -- oh oh just saw. It's Casey will watch on radio listen listen listen listen to music on the mat let's. -- don't always think when we see Joe Morgan on Sundays and we don't spend much time we've gotten. But don't always think that this is the day that some obvious in -- sentences he's out time. -- that the -- sales. Would all the time with guys this week it upgraded the position Billy packer and on right no offense to Jerry -- piano but. We upgraded the position Dave O'Brien as standard. And and it's it's like. Say how can we get better we get better I know this -- able -- available let's bring him in right we get better right. What are they do that when Morgan went does that date come. Vanessa people said Dave McCarty we do better with Dennis Tankersley that's a good point -- by the way -- states the obvious over them please please can Ortiz studio Morgan just yet stating the obvious you don't you -- Cedeno another in his never. --"
" anything edge a year insightful mean and so now I get upset it's a smart guy and when we went to Stanford or whatever it was and he was a fun player and I would love guys who -- righty for lefty it's just I."
" I agree with you but I will so this here's my analysis of that bit there is this this overwhelming desire year. When you were early in your television career not to rock the boat. Not to be controversial not to draw up too much attention careful the work that's worked for I hate careful careful is the word."
" Careful. Can't stand careful especially when did you consciously carefully executives love or this there idiots there what you tell lie there the best. TV analysts at the ones who aren't. And the guys like Dennis -- Jerry -- these guys are great because they're not careful because you know unite the cliches and you know they would tell you so you don't."
" Now they have sent cash -- whether it be by Hall of Fame career knickers -- case or belong jeopardy and the assimilation into the fabric. It is doing in baseball the Jerry Remy. Enjoys. Dave McCarty doesn't have it was doesn't -- democratic state the obvious and skewed one cliche after that help I well. I've just on immediately be left tomorrow too good job somewhere decades in television all I know is that team executives don't want to get phone calls. Or letters or emails on Monday morning saying I can't believe your guy I thought -- change."
" Stat that we've got all of -- there's so many more choices in this which more proactive for people that do you have to grab them by the by the look Els like Tigers lead subtly TV's expect well I don't beyond its governor around don't just put off don't don't offend anyone ask element you know would that mean in football -- he will boost mobile boomer Chris Collins -- excellent these guys who say some than. Who clearly don't have that the governor in their -- to be careful be careful be careful be careful. I'm like McCarty who says -- How could just get through this segment without. In trouble that's right Packers lead and humid and -- that he had fired today and he'd go out with -- and and say I was honest. I did my job I did well and you know what he did on the job tomorrow."
" And as much as we have up until this point appreciated X canned -- things he has said positive and negative about his hometown team. I think he gained comedy brownie points a thousand this weekend via via the comments about -- he can't."
" Help them self but I think that act if you told him to be careful if you'd told them be safe here we don't want to -- He would say I don't know how to do that we want the pitcher they music isn't drug that dropped F bombs it."
" Broadcast that's true but that he is here which which are about to hear is genuineness. This guy's saying all the whole world is talking about Manny. Let me see you back in jumping to get my feet wet on the subject as sort of you know join the fray. This guy who comes on the year and reaction response from his --"
" Yes and and god bless him because is not enough of that versus -- In the media and and among fans to defend and protect -- yes adult -- I mean it's and I thought the Saturday morning listening to -- and Larry has -- mourning and Larry. Dolan had here and the gall. To criticize. Manny -- that ridiculous. Hair I mean I. It's it's like stating the obvious that hit looks predict that there is not a control here is covering his name -- it looks like some kind of looks. Person -- season Boston Common and -- And they legalized marijuana rally your summer in them the Bob Marley yeah or someone wondering the streets and Brighton Alston and barefoot. In in in in February looks it's not a -- and -- won a million dollars. And cup and won -- and you know -- of course was -- now I'm sure they were all those who -- Just it's it's a little reject -- mean it's halfway goes back if you know. If you can't criticize that candidate criticized me it's -- nothing people -- on the games look at many and they say that it looks ridiculous but. It's almost like taken a chance at going over the line it's -- on the air. But -- has a lot of control."
" in -- all know. I am in trouble now I criticized Manny for his hair well let's all agree or disagree."
" It -- looks ridiculous. What they would disagree with that. You guys are afraid even it's my question onto the court itself. -- Says Kim Mike."
" My hair longer yeah. Right come on they're ridiculous what what what -- advance about Larry Sammy as. You know with just like Craig don't all. -- eight I think about this was ridiculous -- that there are good. -- get to the play Friday but I just got to make the point that you stating the obvious to Portland State the obvious. Look at him and says it's ridiculous is stating the obvious. Looks -- what do you think Tom Ward John Henry Theo Epstein -- missy came -- name on his back is part of the pace of our franchise yet that. It's like okay we get to point your free Spirit like the -- there but at what. It blows that so mean would have tripped -- It paid yet in my government soon -- it loses the ball well but what -- at a player a played a critical habitat got us here. That's a good point I that's a good otherwise say they win the game but they tagged out his air. That would be funny well -- you know you wouldn't be allowed to criticize all the dramatic you can't -- yeah. Irony is you can. Criticize people who play hard all the -- and he doesn't. Who don't have this this inclination to be you know free spirited and in off the wall you Munich crazy you -- yeah yeah flattened tonight yes the believe. -- that one club since since he courses fall. I wouldn't care if you Kalus. We took a -- leg there's no reason a teammate should sucked or slap another teammate in the face. And we're supposed to believe you -- Youkilis colon -- Brought that on yet that punch in the face because he's too emotional. So it's certainly and a couple teammates -- soccer's. But I -- now I don't know you don't even to a new pet dogs a slap slap you'd like to -- and -- movement which you wouldn't because you're a grown man. Usually and you just say can't do that. The irony. Is we're talking about comport meant we're talking about Europe. Your demeanor years your your actions on the field and and the guy who had up would you Kalus is important what's."
" Embarrassed about how he carried himself on the field and they dugout. Izturis the kindness it is inescapable right if you think about it I I would suggest to you that there's only one other sports entities in New England. That enjoys the same kind of one you may not criticize him under any set of circumstances. As -- does an oddly enough -- could not be more opposite in the approaches to. There and grooming him personality. React LER would you agree that the only other person -- The new -- on the -- that sports that that enjoys the same kind of -- piercing anything bad about him. Would be the head coach of the Patriots."
" Like the Brady coaches say Brady but now but. Do anything Jim Crow if he'd yet era well you know. Certainly. All the capitals that there and and lackadaisical attitude and slapped and teammate yet all right Brady would never do -- did."
" Bledsoe if Bledsoe with a supermodel and Costa Rica surfing one by now we've heard people saying. Is taking this seriously enough Drew Bledsoe taking this upcoming season serious enough let's not upset about the loss to the Giants in the superbowl should Drew Bledsoe not be committing more time and effort to getting ready for the slick so let's yeah yeah yeah but we're not a word about that Tom right right right but so -- that -- I suppose. Amazed at his performance Belichick is very much the same the differences. Belichick has done some -- out to bring some. Criticism on this franchise. Right but yet very few people would criticize him locally. Writes about Casey's brooks like."
" And they do have the bull new America and the I mean many more so than Belichick but they do the it's just found it amazing and we talked about -- briefly after our show Friday. The Bible Belt comes in and may and delivers this report. It's a scoop. It's it's powerful stuff from Manny was fine according to blow a six figure. And management slash ownership. Thinks he may have taken three pitches that on the middle and purple as silent protest vote go to it and the calls and some hosts handsome national figures like Peter Gammons. They jump to the side of Manny Ramirez who let's face -- his. His track record is spotty at bats rather than bubble bell who liked that. Has as much credibility as anybody in the span as great sources. As no reason to make this up I mean he's just Dillon in for dale and all its not like he's. You know a leading the news 11 o'clock trying to grad he's just sit here say he but I know what I hear. And and you know -- well he talks to people here -- some people he knows beaten. I believe that I believe every word of it I have no reason double -- bell I have a lot of reasons to doubt many rumors."
" Which I think is more likely to have happen. That the ownership front office believes he took three intentionally send a message would -- really was fine six figures. Because it's out my management question I think it's the first thing I think there's a sense. In ownership and management Manny said. -- you watch this the bat not come off my shoulder which Peter Gammons once total shipments of that anybody would suggest that many would do something like this. As opposed to the six figure opening here's why if there were six bigger line and otherwise. But wouldn't Bradford wouldn't Gammons wouldn't mavs wouldn't -- McCadam what all of these people well. Multiple sources within the organization. Have -- with this by now -- gore."
" Knees came out for number 1015 that correct except I almost think it's irrelevant man you mean unions money means nothing to -- we've currently in their stories and -- writers to borrow money in in and he likes Jerry lapses money yeah. I mean that they -- check. Like he he would write -- (%expletive) on -- off. Just opened some that's my point yeah I think any line would (%expletive) some preakness. He's he's never been called the cup for anything we've been criticizing. Its ownership management and we should. Applaud them if if this is true -- believe it is. Good for them good Henry weren't good for Larry they finally. Made the excellent child -- the corner. And and pay a price. Forces. Actions for his misbehavior. I believe -- and believe the report on the number of the I'm glad I'm glad they. At least expressed some. So -- so rule of this control. Player. It just -- activity the the judgment that people make it's like oh will bill what does he know eight to defend Manning no matter what. I think. I'm surprised I think people should applaud and say. Good Manny in the wake up and take crap anymore I don't -- that they say was LaBelle maholm of course it didn't take -- proposed."
" on the black. It was incredible and here's the big events that sometimes it goes up there with a plan and looking for a particular pitch -- a B doesn't get it he won't swing at OK let's try to guess what Mariano Rivera is going to throw at at. Let me get -- plan B or cutter cut. All could be a -- but I might be a cutter."
" And and any technically took one -- you could say it takes three and sits down. And by the way -- didn't say Manny took real purpose he said that's what Red Sox management and ownership believed -- happened he was just reporting. What he knows what he learned from his source."
" The way we you know when you look at the foundation of all this somehow played out. When they kept saying listen we handle matters like this in the house you know why they said that you know why that was the company line you know what that's Larry and Theo and -- a hundred times said to every reporter in the days after all of that that we are going to handle this in house. That was effort not to (%expletive) off man that was an effort not to publicly embarrass Manny. That was an effort not to tell the whole world they find him ten or 1500000. Dollars it was an effort to use to two to try as hard as they possibly could. Not to have many ought to know lead the batter and a shoulder every down the middle and it did even work and it didn't even work by."
" The thing that -- is that you mentioned Bradford needs and Tony those guys have sources and McCadam in the clubhouse and maybe even Manny is a source. Put whistle well sources there and ownership correct management -- I think they have different sources and it makes sense to me that. You could learn that from ownership maybe not from the clubhouse this may -- the players in -- and the coaches didn't know our -- those guys. Did know but ownership certainly knows. I just don't understand why would want to say -- well as he now I mean if you look at the you know like the comments in the feedback -- these. You know these these chat room -- that and they all want to blame the messenger literally blame -- bell for I guess making this up --"
" that's what 777 -- series today told me at 888525850. We hope play for you when we get back Dennis accurately doing the shall we say the anti Joe Morgan. I would say it's the anti Joe Morgan Joe Morgan yeah. This is what it sounds like win a a at an analyst. -- wears his heart on his -- but allows himself to speak his mind. Lend his expertise. And his eight on something that is happening on a Major League ball field or in the Major League club house. And it's not oh that's a little cut fastball or watch what happens here a Mike and ask you with a sports slash your phone calls at 617 sevens that reminds jury fifty when we come back."
