He -- sales guys. -- laurel wreath in guardianship of him apparently out of the bullet."

" And a bullet date. Back to the vocal and and -- Brett excellent. Did -- at any rate. Hello Dan it. At a lecture me I didn't."

" And what I got yeah. -- Out. Of hand out. -- Yeah. I don't look at LeBron -- is no -- but -- and anybody. A boy and obviously a ball. I'll let any. -- ball over abroad. Or eight. In the end up they can't. Com bait bait bait though you know 1 morning --"

" I actually think yes the -- injure Cramer first. That's part of the field. Yes the doctor -- Kramer yeah he toxic than I do any plans and nobody softening Olympic committees drug testing goes well he's got us an update you with -- war wasn't that. Some of the recommendations that came out of -- I was congressional hearings that that would do anything to do with the Olympics are you take that -- that you fail and you midnight tonight that take steroids that suited better."

" Right that it and all left the bank is at stake. And not the US not -- girl yet I don't think agent they add up with it it peculiar that level. Odds you're subject to random strike. Yeah out. And now you'd have thought about why -- been."

" We did we do that with the -- station it was random drug testing in baseball you know in the offseason. It's random drug testing for two more for the minor league guys that just call you. And he has when eyes went right -- some of the about it."

" You know what I did read. And I again I don't know anything about this but I did read it. That. That pool is a brand new facility. In in Beijing it was built for speed to some type of our current the way they have it -- the depth of the."

" All the way it's built there's certain dimensions or whatever action -- that. -- yeah it's still -- actually as guides. The -- the lazy -- outlets are whatever they're actually the way the water comes out into the pulled him filters every -- both -- and so -- it gets -- bluntly let's slow it on the -- I. I don't know maybe this is like you talk about the coolest -- of the studio I don't I don't know I don't know I am telling you. I tell you I've read I read an article on the last day they actually claimed that bet we'll. Ever ever. You Venus every race is a world record at that yes that's -- play every race I every year as a reliever depth. Bowl out where it's it's these little bathing suit to -- on water and to go through probably about hold any event the bathing -- another. It's not the first -- used about the full -- high -- is that I think that it. Could be about."

" It very well on topic -- 888 built all and then a second and it."

" Somebody will call it an and correct you guys when they're going to do that's awkward and they were they built for speed built so that they can get world record that's and they won't -- that those guys. -- you question I think that you know Eddie -- some of the swimmers -- that little -- little -- Yet again that weird most of them do yes -- couple adult by the way you notice that all of that nervous habit of put the goggles on an -- league Nomar with respect. -- but now I somebody will call upon -- one at this at this that the and mineral water is this special one really needs to get faster yeah yes the water under the new -- all of the match. I don't know about LO joke taking vitamin waters Joe."

" How are you. Actually. -- us. So. Yeah. The current goes to end it won't go that typically with certain. -- three meter. And the only unit especially and gone -- owners hope that -- special ordered to them like the other older country."

" That's the I apologize a thousand. You know. Everyone amused and apologized out I'm easily land line -- one about the result."

" I stepped up right away that the water that goes all of them it's just it creates a weeks and it doesn't."

" It isn't on the people who signed -- I -- and all those world records there's a problem this -- with the song about quantity is just. Abroad from now on the Lions are now you guys do your homework show up to show dog liked it a little."

" that would also be -- a lot of pretty obvious just for the yeah it's a combination of very accurate or not it."

" It's the gutter system every. Every Israeli Olympic penetrating the trading all the time of the -- in all the different competitions they. Every single race -- this a world record. Right."

" Although this Saturday in the world record."

" Olympian child in the final drive but that's because that's that's what they're prepared for a bit -- it -- him after they -- they don't hit the wall and they are basically not."

" It does not -- Michael Phelps was back -- pull our a couple of classes. Some thought we thought I. Knew. I grew up that I don't arguing that point but it it. There's gotta be something and and that's why this whole thing is going to be testing in the way that the does whatever. And it."

" I stuck at a late you -- them both sides as you said they -- in the Olympic trials he broke all the records as well. These people breaking but he did US has. Every with a complaint line yet of course that got -- And daughters to and you pick our the lane lines and -- put him happy and never had a that drag off your body art work and -- added just happy that's the bottom and nothing noted that -- It'll and that's charitable not was -- in good -- your body like swimmers I did not do and it has made the -- and it got pulled -- putt -- about -- Really I think again that we elect Michael Phelps beat Tennessee in I don't know what everybody but everybody and -- it's it's not Michael -- every. And you watch -- race now it's a world bracket it's every single winner is a world record. -- the the medley the 800. They broke it by resides isn't a free stuff that's that's really know you talked keep talking -- line tonight. And had a a stop just the lead at the gutters Philip just ignore them go ahead speak."

" I want what the hell you I just want to thank the beauty guardian. It talks -- Red Sox Nation number eight partridge on it to Robert O'Neal let it be great artist. -- specs are -- in the past present future -- goals and an -- dreaded disease. In fact deeper mend -- not we needed or teachers it was Barry get. Beattie oh yeah yeah. Mister deputy and bought it for. I doubt. And imperial sports on despite it went up the -- didn't on -- well. I'd bet he wants to beat fighter Jimmy -- it went so well."

" Well -- should be thanking us that it -- we want to thank everybody topic is going to need that in the next two days we're we're going to need people pick up those phones and and call. And you're absolutely correct them -- listen I know this is a real challenge this year. To try to top that four million. Dollar mark and I know that things are a little bit tougher than they have been in in in previous years but if you think -- off. For you financially imagine how difficult and that they are for seven year old right now who sit -- they're getting treatment today. And you know hoping that he's going to be around three or four months I line and that's the -- we've got to -- in this when that."

" Like the red -- a wolverines. Hostels and it would Albania was eat some young old. What is pretty disease and -- I tell anyone not. Very rich doctors just gold when these Asians whatever and -- Hundred dollars or -- what we'll. We'll still -- Does not. We change you know of course here are quickly. I don't wear that a lot of my haven't wait -- wire. -- love to see but I probably won't -- yet -- that it was but we aren't like Chinese. We think he. We take flight hours because yeah."

" Where do you think the apartment -- that it's I agree with the act like -- is going to get that hip and shoulder I'm just wondering where he fits on this team now that the policies is David Ortiz when -- healthy. He certainly wouldn't look at the Mike Lowell thing makes it into sinkers that would what they don't have. And it's of the biggest drop off with me being here is just that other. Kind of power in the first base. Like I don't play and Venus I -- yeah I'm David Beckham now and is now is get -- but at bay putting Dane Drew."

" What did I bet. Mark on gentlemen -- in -- last."

" I'm going to play in the corner outfield spot with which in right opposite he sits he plays right field get a hitter to play center field which would be you know I heard I heard somebody call up earlier today and talked about. Moving around defensively so he can keep you -- at first base. And they were talking about moving I'll read third in corners -- the only problem with his. If you lose Michaels back -- the hope that the judge Kasey getting in over 300 and fill in for that they did the other went US and picked up. And I think they're -- this and they were really concerned about the team -- you know. I'm still will be yeah but the team and out rather have John -- in the game and Alex -- you know in the round McNamee it's opposite it. You know he's in every single day for a couple of weeks until it goes back -- outscored those slide in there and he's utility exactly you know he's a great utility guys on the best in the game catch the ball throws the ball -- reason bonds connected to have a vacation going to play defensively he's going to be terrific at first but he's about -- coolest. Again. You're you're asking him to switch positions again in midstream but it and I do little but he's still -- third baseman they have good -- Bosnia so."

" The other -- now Atlantic. Up I really too early you're on the Asian. Are -- well BR are. -- They wanted to split step but it it worked out the last series but -- to Brenda wanna that you outlast Rick was indeed Everett it. Me at parties will be at 1 PM a lot will regret our nation -- beer will be revealed. Any -- Bronx cheer."

" Oh yeah on a -- that should the Yankees conceal what you live there now. I felt like I did call the next couple days that's when you call his point and Corey doing."

" Yeah it is going. Anyway. Today. Eric ratio. Everyday. You need the you don't agree. A -- that does a very good job. It. It. Oh what is. --"

" I got 88 glad. He eats more food than Pete myself and Fred combined to the course of the day."

" He eats like 12000 calories her -- you know it's not all we and he said he -- team like he's like a -- Today and number 8200 on the they'll they earned it. Well I'd I'd say you know what I'd done he'd DI DNL but they cannot promise the -- diet and you know I I didn't gain -- and."

" is that the Senate 7300 now. It looked him burn burn burn the calories public you -- Olympic pool -- make it wants. Once down at the stop and take progress made Clement is not -- you have done and I do well I like Schilling but with the Olympic pulls into warp --"

" You you really need those current I didn't I need that's what's that. Did you think it was long noodles and take down at odds."

" At last night date -- about. It has a little -- last night -- oh on all of this grant when he does that aren't. No water -- yeah probably out when he Beckett but he doesn't vote I don't know private fixed beat that a lot of -- It is yeah."

" He's exceptionally and even the other night they're they're showing him under water. And how he is able to stretch shoulders in his amazing double today that he. To make that -- in which an extent he's got more extension in any of these other swimmers so that even if he's did he. With somebody he's going to be able to expand on that last stretch and make that touch him and and."

" Number about it bank. Ankle like it has speed but right now."

" You do that totally wrong about somebody that's especially night that look at Lance Armstrong guys like that -- mean. Physically yet there is a difference that separates these guys and he just has some of those attributes that you talked about the ankle the joints and he's just --"

" I think. -- let's -- and domestic hello Mike. That. Was the at bat but at the -- they you'd. Eight barrier. Title. You know I don't want all of -- are. You know they'd take it so much dirt guys from oiler and -- that are. Such a big -- to mean aerodynamic watered. Them."

" Story I read that when these guys leave this pool. And go to the next -- They will not be able to achieve these type these times because this pool is just that much quicker that's what. These guys doesn't refused to quit there will do our homework that enables -- like."

" Colorado. I don't ask for a -- track without a strike in the and that's another suspect -- and that's. Not attractive struck out -- Certain certain."

" Beat new that everybody's been used the past year the abuse -- even while they. What they're -- or it 44 laps. Record breaker have been wearing that you know yeah and and tells it like spot and got away. -- the point about what do you deal oil."

" I'm telling its pool against. An advantage. -- it and it. In a lot of sports I brother 67779. Starting looking to find modify it and culprit should. -- over you know you should -- you homework with it -- so for homework you know more about the the new England's -- Al history and Williams don't know more about that morning that you know about the Olympics -- people -- electrical and I I don't make up stuff about gutters and I'd -- general and other health.
