" I mean registered from a doctor Woodson. -- shouldn't be -- gonna be there six tomorrow. He called the earliest in the -- and get some Arctic and Maryland drugs but feel a little. I it's that it don't know what you're not just a bomb -- Tonight's -- night if he said got a card game tonight and Dorchester community directions. Good dog fights. A couple as -- steady steady hands it's a good thing that. Occurred good morning. To matter Joe -- busy this morning yet Joe Buck not available this morning."

" You know we have more listeners than he has viewers. Now. Speak. -- are gonna get the subway Curt Schilling is brought to you by dragon naturally speaking. Speech recognition software by new one called dragon. Dragon naturally speaking catchy. --"

" We we are you suggested to who's the guy we had on and said can we hooked us up to Mayor Menino."

" Oh yeah you put it into the -- dragons are up to the mayor C. -- Smoke comes at an amendment -- what we've done. Well doesn't it -- net -- Significantly neighborhoods where yet to -- a bit easier to do. And it's it's an Akron right yeah that's the association of black owned and operated. -- Can have an event and -- on Apple's shift Apple's."

" Double fisted typewritten words and I know you'll be. Ago."

" Generations tell us answer this version of this moment. Did you decide to withdraw your candidate because of view and and John in the kids or because of Scott Brown."

" Totally internal. I think to get a chance I think to push the the -- like pieces and kind of figure when it fell like. There are actually commit the time and manipulate the data was going to be able to literally be all in from committed standpoint there's absolutely no chance. Delegates and I was going and make it -- or ignorance what are McCaw I was going in the spotlight I was gonna be able to actually win again. And what that would need and I think that that -- Meet my marriage in my collection my children that are. That. These and they'll need to talk about external forces. You know there's. First -- Youkilis who's running I mean. From that simple approach to go -- the public figure it out so. But -- you know life. I I'm I'm I've got some friends. That our our. Going to be out and about and involved in the next elections. Both state and government. All public and do work do still Senator McCain know. And yeah -- accidentally gets out and and tell you. You know I I wanted to make sure you heard it from me first if he's been somewhat popular. Repeatedly through the process in some equipment or. Over the last couple months and he had some. It was better because I had I would point to to announce it and -- to immediately followed up by talking about it's people with us and be wildly and but he did. Do me a favor and do yourself -- Do not mention anybody else's -- So you're 100% sure you're gonna support that person a person that's something we've been. It'll be occupants that they're -- I don't Japanese also that the and I got to mop you know and so. I put that you would like smaller and kept the well."

" So back your decision big an internal was so as to when a nutshell essentially Sean pointed out there's no pre enough to place right."

" Yeah well we -- we can maybe get that aren't usually what you expect you really sat down and and and I did this and then start to come right down. What it might need. Are you quickly come up with the fact that. You better have an open slate for the next couple years your -- write an open meeting you're not committed to rethink it directly to be halted are committed to big. Around your wife and and and family run and you know we we evaporate in the."

" Well obviously you set down -- figure out what it might mean did you ever get a number in terms of what it might cost."

" I was I was led to believe that it probably wouldn't cost anything if I want it to. There was enough support I think financially -- And it that was one of my big element there's enough support financially for meat to the not the problem might -- And I talked about this -- you know I don't know how -- all the intricacies of of our campaign financing. From step one of -- can't we can't do. -- protections special you can picture of special dispatches you'll know about it but now that I idea I think. I was going to be able to do this probably without cut a check party thank him and that they can abduct children in the state age. With the financial situation both locally and and and nationally. I'm not sure that that would have been --"

" It's just struck me that if you've got involved in this and you were involved in some fund raising and fund raising dinners and things that would help the people who were helping you raise some money. They're probably would have been missed not disconnect the sort of odd feeling in your brain -- All the money you raise of the yours for -- less -- now sort of dividing your loyalty and your allegiances and not putting that energy into helping -- or the shape foundation into into a political office without a corporate it set kind of uncomfortably with --"

" I don't know if you guys -- possible my blog yesterday. Don't want the concerns. And -- I think it's Senator McCain. Mexican music -- go -- it maybe some work on the road to decide to change of mind to do this right now focused elect on the things you guys commitment which is a wife and -- kids. Ellison -- topic and no that's that's about 4448. Hours of well work today already and so you know becomes easier to sort that labeled part of anyone. And -- the plan remained on target but it would stop. Jerry yummy obviously thank you for everybody that that reached out -- and and and and voiced their support of -- my potential. I received it is an enormous amount of support from the incredibly flattered by that. You know I I think it was legitimate. In the amount of hate mail that I received. That that I think people were were obviously concerned were eaten and that they need cupid as well."

" Do you have any intention of of campaigning in and out publicly supporting Scott Brown."

" I have been content to -- of supporting somebody. Right now on uncovered doing my due diligence I have received. What could be a particular about four from the people about -- it from a to go through their platform to understand what they're going to do to try to get done. And when when my choice becomes clear than that home make that public."

" Excellent and what what is. What is your take we're on to baseball and yet time to watch the ball the Red Sox to watch these -- games against Baltimore and Kansas City. There is still the question we hear it every morning every time Beckett pitches and has some mixed results of who you start game one Lester is. Numbers against and against the angels are much worse than. Packets so I think -- the guy no matter what do you think Francona spends one minute contemplating this decision or his back already in set in stone."

" Barring physical issues that the commune. -- what you wanna do right now is that there are always look at clinching took -- in both cases clutching too early and and you know if there's pick the piece of clinching -- Lleyton. Puts too early. I would be concerned about it with any other what other than this month. A given period in the mentality -- about subtle -- would've been a problem clinching you know three weeks ago. Click keep too late changes since result a lot of things you have to play through the last weekend of the season. Do we get a I think -- 2006 by the pitch against the Yankees. And I every I didn't it's still wanna might -- one of the biggest mistake that was -- I could not it's an -- these answers -- talks. Because become a pitched against the Yankees and didn't have a chance and -- you don't come back injury before one Greta I was like well I'm okay which ordered October in the the ball beat somebody in. You know we have to play at the last week and in that -- anytime yet do that you have two -- number one I don't get a breather. And number two you don't get the start because you wanna start when he wants our."

" So I guess -- sort of ask the question that was and go -- to make it specific to this particular year you wouldn't go pedal to the metal. -- it suited to play the lesser light team not the -- or not at home at home. Versus having Beckett and Lester lined up and ready to go rug games one and two on the road in in California."

" Click here you -- your spot that's the priority -- spot for. And then if you have a chance to mid -- Europe -- over the last week or two of the season and figured out without pushing. Buttons and and and and and -- think things out as formal work was simply do that -- I'd I'd never ever. Was really concerned -- the parsley and you know other than that -- in the only thing that they've changed from meat from -- the -- step what was once it was going to be parent for I'd I'd I'd do I was gonna be. I was -- I didn't do that I was gonna be so thoroughly prepared and I was gonna have such a huge advantage regardless of the opponent. That I didn't -- exported -- regulators put up more on it and -- you see what you see when the calendar turns one of the transitions in in the Red Sox organization is is data. They provide their players with more data and better data and anyplace I've -- an October. Is the one time that everybody on the team uses that. It's the reason there are no fakes and frauds in October."

" Nixon fronds and October do you know why you look at them that way. It's up -- I'll bet you have. -- catcher I mean really I really can't have a second you'd go and why you're prepared you know what you need to pitching you shook off Jason Varitek and and it's not like that -- no -- actually did caution and a banana I mean do you think it's really important to Beckett."

" I don't know it was a -- I mean it was from B. From. He didn't say don't ever surprise me on the game you give them good. You know I in Philadelphia we suck so bad I got the pick my lineup has both Mike -- you know here it was I I just -- consistency -- had. You know I had -- a couple of times for a couple different stretches I was after consistency because for me. It's tempo and workflow and and -- moment trying to get the same page the capture. A hundred I could throw -- but it is in seven innings and have -- two hours ten minutes. And I deplore by -- epic -- three hours fifty minutes based on tempo workflow and that to me is the biggest. Piece I think we've I think one of the I think that that people should feel good about it I think victor speed as seamless a transition and you could make given that the situation he came in here under these people. I never thought it was a bad defensive -- not a good -- but he's far better than I ever. Thought he was that all of those that."

" Well will it surprise you Varitek doesn't start a game in the first series."

" I got to be -- watch and Beckett struggled early on it was only two runs but the you know it was put away guys early. I'm so I'm saying to myself may be this idea that he is that he is uncomfortable with somebody not named Jason Varitek behind the plate is gonna be a problem. But it would seem based on Kerry's comments what no matter what Beckett was. Victor Martinez is going to be the guy here by and large."

" I -- I hope that that's public just -- don't wanna think you know job losses is what's the term. You know -- be sure -- Just calls don't get the most part don't take cues from captures the but the pitchers that he and that deliberate or the pitches he wants to grow and you know so if that's I think it's one reason why is learning -- has spent a little. Longer than others at times. In different obviously that that. It's gonna come out of it better at the end of it and you know. I would not be concerned -- and if you could shut -- the running game which we have done every time we played in time in the post season. You're going to be. You know the one thing I would be concerned right now would probably glad seems to be getting -- in about really -- That I think we. I think we neutralized. Two epic way the last couple years and how we approach an academic people back as I can't I I cannot stress this enough. In October every player on the team has literally their own scouting team that the you'd go into W. The fourth place series you'll see a video of the the -- on that they he's on TV and our our it'll be watching kind of glad he had a month eating. The hitters studied these guys and I always look at that everybody puts the time and effort and preparation wise that I do or restart every player and every pitcher does that for. -- fortified sixty leading up to the serious. And and that's why eight. Holes and -- and -- people get exploited in October so much quicker than they do. It before that and in you know you might have up. A guy who who works the only after the strike over pretty consistent basis and some some really -- that are noticed that during the season batters don't. October every -- Gordon played knows that's why the about this -- And it totally changes that the way to -- two point."

" Follow up with a question I want to ask a little bit of bubble form where we jumped ahead if indeed let's say the -- best case scenario Red Sox win tonight. They sweep the Yankees with a five and apple now down to two and a half. They -- another game and get a double to one and this Terry Francona is approach change in the final week of the season if they are comfortable for the division because by that time. They would have already clinched the wild card which as you said you know is the is the goal clinched the playoff spot does his approach change if they win the -- sweep the Yankees."

" The periodically meet you're out in my opinion but yeah they'll be answered that well and -- vote yes he's military won't open no. He manages the way he manages and and that is never changed as you want to think that Terry told me when he left Philadelphia. Wasn't you know you're fired the day you're hired they just don't put that date -- contract. -- so if you get beat people that's the case you need committed. The way people how to manage at all times because when you lose your job you wanna be a little walkway and the iTrip where -- what to do it. Yes the guy -- will manage. His wife and I would argue that he'll play the schedule out and he'll make sure the first two. Games in the postseason -- by the puppets we want the -- regardless of what happens between now and the end of the season. That that people are gonna quit that's spot -- and then they'll assess and -- look at everything in the of the cycle for up."

" Are -- you know more than anyone what it takes for a team to go all the way you look at this team and say it is. A World Series championship caliber team do you do you have. Or or do you do you have a good feeling as ahead in the post season are we expecting yankees Red Sox ALCS. Into Red Sox World Series."

" I don't think there's any question at all of this into in the world there's no question whatsoever. I think that like well I I've -- the last ten years. The World Series goes through the American League Championship Series. In Ohio a little bit but yeah I mean I always look that big -- There yet the FC -- to -- imports -- reportedly the two best teams play each other before super ball. Not to distribute them nationally but I just don't think there's any team that they can put the firepower. Offensively and on the mound that these two clubs can I think we're gonna -- It's a let somebody troops. That you do get hot -- Lander. And Detroit. Roles are you you know. I just can't see into and out of the pitching to beat -- of these teams in the first round. And if the Yankees -- and if it's easy and AJ somehow get product I'm not see him at all I don't think they -- they will. -- they can speed broke but I think that it's gonna be Red Sox yankees fail yes and I think that you're gonna Sierra. A four games to one -- institute Walters did America become an opt out of."

" Europe and Theo Epstein and his is the big question in the off season. They -- holiday."

" You know what you take that you that you take. The thing you know he's proven he can hit October he's proven low he can play in this market easily guide since he yeah. You have to see it David bailout. Just park it's weird to say that about a guy with thirty -- a hundred. But he president of very workman like fashion. That we talked about this became bureau of a public eye fatigue into typically. And I saw nothing and then nothing that I was exposed to when I met at a popular got to tell them this change my opinion the guy isn't business. And he's he's a guy that for the next four or five years you can have -- patrol must feel the key is I think it's gonna come down to one thing and it's gonna be yours I don't think that there. It whenever the Red Sox opera I don't think anybody's gonna go fight maybe you're more. Her four year deal -- that somebody -- up for election year and -- where the Yankees always went that they. You know it's not about you know oh million a year here -- there it's about the -- fifteen or eighteen million of -- back on track -- BAT's. Are always comparable putting have extra year on because they don't the trunk carpet complained nobody else can."

" Hillary before you go it's going to be you know you'll be glad to hear this bowl the you know and meaner now think Roethlisberger is better than Brady episode Aetna's. That."

" decision I don't I don't believe but if there."

" Susan and grill current and and I only said he brings something. Other then what Brady brings to the table that is the building uses legs and."

" Inhabit the that I would argued -- I would give Brady. Rubble like if you could give deep Brady's pocket prep absolutely no doubt that's the difference you don't if you got the opposite neat. That's like because he's a he's a pocket passer who. We continue I think he minds your job Montana. It put it up until this year due to the ball usually -- and a millisecond before contact backfield whether it's front side backside. You know that's the thing I haven't seen this here is I think -- that heard a crossbow checked our approach -- pocket earlier I totally agree with I don't think it's any one thing. But it's a massive companies have a lot of little things but I don't think typically develop one thing someone like property would have addressed that and expects to. And I think you're gonna what's gonna happen is when we kid could be next week he could be and we -- now they're gonna run out of 48 to seven win. And it and he'll be back on track and Republicans it was going to be going up -- week to your word about the you know."

" Exactly. Yeah I leave you with this I'm fascinated by something's about to happen until we that you that I am or I am not a little twisted when I consider the fact. The probably sometime. In the next couple of days. -- rods -- look at the calendar and say. Old -- bowl October right around the order taken all the calendars out of this how do you think that's but has or will look hurting him even fleetingly -- that -- here comes October."

" I would argue it already. Split when -- If -- problem as always and that. You pick I would polls and and in you can pitch to those holes in October. I would argue we -- them as well anybody that played from gate or on in total war. He's stripe for -- it's as good as yet he's still strike out a lot. And and guys that strike out a lot and have talked on an October and you know I I don't know what kind of pressure put on sub basement to ever read about him and heard about him antsy about -- People put immense amounts of extra pressure on himself on October which is probably. And it won't it -- work force them. In the past you know. He gets in and -- policy has always been -- problem."

" Eight to your earlier point Jason Bay I think is what ten home runs in front of A-Rod nine I don't -- an -- run not bad not bad."

" Now. There we go our current -- socket -- next to us is gonna open senate seat by the way just -- Right -- are selling brought to you by dragon naturally speaking speech recognition software. Buy new ones will be back."
