A tally your baseball and I was women's delay but bipartisan and school don't -- there was only I'm old enough to know that was the only. Right we don't normally -- that now -- just -- it was cool when pinnacle north and -- Rob my sister's a first year which was in team -- didn't three years later but then went through that right. The graduate in the seventy's right. Like six. Yeah keep talking and no Peter Jackson administration. So we'll give that away but it just when you think about it this -- Arabs really -- His. Different time back then in school high school. -- merely good that's a fact back -- I don't -- I was thinking about coming here today it was at this time a year from me go back to school it was all awful. It was a game I loved it was just all about four point you'll already in shape at this time you were RT comin' back. And things start not and I remembers -- kid. Pro football around here root for the patriots in the whole different animal. There was a member of the first football game I ever saw the patriotism Harvard stadium. Who's a Boston page and they played the Houston or illusion George -- was the quarterback and you girl. Well I was like ten years old it was in 1960 -- in 1970 knows for seven I believe it was a Mike Oliver. Who's quarterback -- Mike Oliver yeah. Remember being poorly obviously you know Oliver was elected to -- between. Payment market between -- brilliant point. Another read those years."

" Games at Fenway Park you know he -- we're seeing Jim Lee hunt pick up a fumble on the rain on Friday night in rambled it was shot sonic. Quick shot and it. Exactly it's a good -- the -- yeah I mean I still believe that. You know the AFL with a two point conversions and near their idea of opening up. You know the office really help him when the merger Cambodia fell I thought it really improved football because. October is the strides you'll -- the and they wouldn't accept like the two point conversion which now is a -- For often but. They used it because it they said this is actually a good idea AFL and where they did merge and in those days it was it was exciting when when the AFL teams joining in a farmer with a degree Super Bowl game making the big big prediction. And the colts were -- dual French."

" The first game I remember watching the very first game ever and our members -- with with the finger. Company are walking off the field great stuff so do you believe that as NFL that -- he should be -- Hall of -- Again but is not my point is these numbers. Saying he should be all favorite people don't recognize don't waive those -- again."

" You know tiger back to ignore him a couple of teeth in the world hockey association it's like to do that to the numbers and in that in hockey during this kind of fledgling league. I -- the should be recognized for being I think everyone's contribution to a professional sport or should be recognized as such you know I have to. Really break it down and see the -- as they say look at the numbers to see if he."

" I was US -- felt dad I like the US of well well for it to show rock you know. Yet to hit the Boston breakers Johnny Walton number and the quarterback Colin friends -- just -- he -- for the -- the -- channel seven sportscaster -- is that it that to -- was -- trillion Herschel Walker went to the New Jersey generals so we have. But that was unique Philadelphia stars Sam mills and a lot of good players cannot currently. Mean it that this -- I picked -- will do okay."

" Such as city during channels river remember. The channel four laps were in their heyday. Cocky obnoxious as we were background now bill itself novel and an -- driving and Dino Dennis. Came on here with -- you know -- his cronies and during chills seven bust open the Cheryl Ford juggernaut a."

" Ever happened you know. Happen during -- regime I would get a Tuesday morning with -- meter and butch and Bob knew Meyer and now a lot of play area the Red Sox and Tampa tonight we yet BC football now. Start -- this recently MW order overnight news before we get the patriots with baseball I'd like to touch on. Brad Penny signs deal with the giants. So he's winning he sent to minor league deal but the key for him is it's before. September 1 now so it's just it's the playoffs if he pitches well dumpster heavily even with Colorado in the loss column for the wild card beats and different shows common giants have to Bravo Slaney -- and Freddy Sanchez. For right now we -- is greater -- three that tied for the wild card in wretched well generally if pitching does matter at this time a year. The giants probably when it pitching does memory and Lincecum. They got Matt Cain who between estrogen baseball Barry Zito is actually started earned some of his money Brad and get your tickets now on the coverage Carol. Blah but that's a steady signs that stadium in baseball. And now San Francisco Francisco maybe garlic fraud -- it that is you you walk. Safeco you walking. In this smell of garlic Fries in golf -- And you gotta go up to the concessions to the large the large version which they -- to -- Clark your -- It can plug up also that Marshall bald headed north Seattle Baltimore stands the test of time that was 1994 and talk in 92 point is that first game ever was too -- for -- chocolate that we even more press it's seventeen years now -- stands -- as the time. Willow Lenovo also last night he missed it. The Dodgers. Acquiring Jon Garland from a division people from the Arizona Diamondbacks which is inching but Jim told me. Is going to the Dodgers and -- the comment you read the story. And net Clinton said he did not bring him it'd be -- first baseman. And Joe Torre says we're gonna sit down and talk to Jim for -- hasn't played he's been exclusively at DH for two years. I'm not a -- yet to the lineup but. --"

" Look at this broaching the meter is as a problem in in baseball much is this transaction but others and that is it seems to me. That it's becoming. Clear that it's the haves and the have nots. Payroll -- you look at the top four teams in baseball right now in the American League they are. The Yankees Detroit Boston Los Angeles and what do they have in common -- of four playoff teams might Lewis adds. I'm Matt Holliday and Mark DeRosa at 22 million dollars to tack onto their payroll the Dodgers have added Tomei to tack onto their hero. Missing from this is the Tampa Bay Rays. With Scott Kazmir now pitching for the angels the angels tacked on that hero -- surely that's not that's the problem to -- in baseball now is that. It is that -- didn't rich stories of the Tampa is who pins -- the -- that can spend 4850 million dollars and be competitive. -- dose seem to be gore would -- but -- me."

" As you know around here we don't care but the greater good days with your but the idea. Shall I agree with you I know I'm Ian you're you're to have its you know we're would have helped write it but it happens it it's and Andy. But you'd you'd you work six months were 262 games a year for. To see if there isn't competitive balance in baseball is not he who spends wins. And so you can write off what. When he teams -- you have to have your -- the Minnesota's of the world are always around an aberration. Right -- ticker sports seriously. Where it's all about. Money spent it's all about big time -- while another -- well now it's time for salary cap companies are all sitting in Korea all the missing is that somehow some way. The lords of baseball. -- have got to make an effort. To try and equalize. One team versus the next because they do they ever revenue sharing in Kansas heroes pocket that money and they don't spend it on actually eat some some teams do but -- don't. -- If you're if you're a member of the tip will be res. You think you're -- And suddenly Scott Kazmir who leads to go to the Yankees -- you can't afford. Message does that send to Longoria -- or some of these guys they're Longoria -- resigned for cheap money players association not happy with -- on and I -- sit back as a Red Sox fans say well. You know. Who cares UC which as we are the rich kids we would have rescued so I started saying how how I -- How ticker sport that seriously. Where 70%. Of the team but we're hearing -- it has no shot. In terms of winning it's what got you on this I commend you for the last two days in your studying box scores are a baseball fan he said he went to school with you glove and about your hypocrite. I hypocrite because you should have criticized I -- love this book like the sport but I don't like the fact that it's. It's not important. So only your you know -- watched on Iraq September and October now the risks and it looks at the rhetoric to saying that."

" Well this competitive go to an extent of you to take thankfully we have the wild -- I don't know what you -- what side you're on the wild card. Debates a couple of years ago by the it's been great for the game you get teams like Florida. Who by the way they're at thirty million dollar payroll somehow there 6863. Instilled a wild card -- How are they doing it they're doing it by player development player development machine and player development should may or develop."

" It doesn't cut doesn't know it to look I'm not gonna deny what -- same but it also doesn't. Deny the fact that you still need to spend wisely whatever your payroll list. I mean look at football teams to washed and Redskins generate more revenue but almost any team in any sports they'd spend spend like drunken -- I guess you don't Epstein credit I give him credit for. For trying to strike ballot you can credit predicted -- one million dollar mistake excuse me for you he's made some good moves and it was like all -- given credit for trying to strike a balance. Between adding free agents and veterans and trying to develop and draft players. I don't think that's easy I think he's had a pretty dim spots in developing guys like will twice what I want championship and it's why the Yankees won championships and only. 1990 -- have to have some quote cheap labor. Jamaica how -- of it he can throw ten million dollars and hope it sticks with Brad Penny and John Smoltz just throw in Tampa. While we're on this well -- a quick phone call it what you knew -- meter. In for Dennis and Callahan on Tuesday we go to Rick indicate it recovery this morning."

" Until it got -- which are not talking about revolutionary you know some of these teams got a lot of money. And they just pocket like."

" I brought down on the Minnesota judges from Kansas is Kansas City Minnesota actually spends their money. Not not not someone well who would you agree to a degree but they're gonna have to really -- where -- Minnesota has three players on their team that make over ten million dollars cigarette while some Kansas City royal that makes ten million dollars is not one right Coco Crisp organize big John -- You got Joe Nathan and you got Justin Morneau insure morneau is overtime and yeah I'm a little Rick."

" go back to let's just compare what happens in the National Football League and with MLB. Okay I'm going into the arm going into the league. Starting September 13 knowing that I think that right now they're probably. I would say what. Twelve to fourteen teams that you'd think have a legitimate chance of getting into soup and a bit of -- Tulsa football football will be Arizona Cardinals withdraw Kinchen Nat. He didn't think the cardinals -- juicy succulent like my point is is that I can write down right now twelve to fourteen teams that I think every shot about the same in baseball -- That's -- paste all the credit so long. Today it about the that a pillow behind him at 1214 opinion of bill may be. -- and Rick what your point about revenue share."

" Or other point is that they people money at Eugene got doesn't naval of the our prospects of a couple years ago. If you look at capitalists are. It would be ballpark which you do get some money to find out."

" Yes and some of them choose not to -- the royals. You know every bit big deal about the which is named the number one pick for Washington Post Strasbourg Strasbourg signing an -- that was going to be but. In the Red Sox and yankees do have an advantage that they give these guys more money in the minors but the Kansas City Royals choose. Not to spend their money on their prospect that's their fault you just mentioned how important it is and we to build a farm system they choose not to do that that's their fault."

" If they ever do TrueCrypt -- gonna have to be a base or bottom or. As well the pop up."

" There should be -- right I'll give you a caller I'll give you twelve to fourteen teams right now. I think have a legitimate challenge and a throwing it in it in in the NFL that I think it legitimate chance of getting into soup on the much the same meaning as the mean. No yeah any any other the other sixteen because they all have an outside shot to that's the great thing about four. They'll do the Detroit Lions I don't -- Sunni -- have a clothing a lot of well Oakland but. The chiefs I know opening break you know in baseball I continued. Six. Purple -- twelve to fourteen right now. By the way get legitimate -- to getting into the super just for the record just him Arnold this year makes fourteen million. I should be ten point six Joan Nathan makes. Eleven point 25 Angel and I'm gonna be yankees it's going to be Red Sox it might be the angels it's gonna be Dodgers. It may be one of routine and nationally and exit. Okay. Com funded with -- by the way speaking of the wild card here so for since the wild card was first used in 1995. No team in either league with at least a three game this could be the jinx rule for. No team in either league since 1995 and while cards used. First with a three game lead on September 1 has missed the playoffs -- have a three and a half game lead going into three. Now for his Texas lost -- put -- at the Mets have. Here's the exact paragraph since the wild card was used in 95 no -- that we -- at least three game lead on September 1 has missed the playoffs. The 2000 Indians -- seven chargers are the only clubs to blow a two game advantage Mets -- division -- so the Mets must not had a three game lead. Yet -- boat division lead they would -- the division. Last us take a break. It's Bob knew Meyer it's John made a morale exports Stearns and for Dennis and Callahan Tedy Bruschi. The patriots the passing of the torch Red Sox in the wild card it's on the table next."
