The banking the DC UA go to DC you dot -- good morning -- how -- wondering since that you're not paying your fair share tax -- on the board McCain after that fiery speech last night. -- You weren't you are caught up in that emotion -- flowery rhetoric rhetoric in all the stuff he's going to do for you when Chanda."

[0:27]" Well you know what they've beat me neither want -- Commit to speak Tuesday I don't get caught -- have been -- election after election in. But -- it is hoped it would still be called or Europe and it in an opposite -- on."

[0:48]" Moral or about your guy you think your guy John McCain will this Republicans and the next week are we going to hear him a lot of empty rhetoric from your guy."

[0:57]" I hope I. I don't get them is that their particular business someone who doesn't do what he says you know on the -- going to be grow -- simplicity. How displays well."

[1:08]" I don't know how well do you know -- know Europe now is very. And yes can you tell us something about in the we don't know."

[1:15]" Well thought -- real evident everything and oakmont just kind of reinforces what you hear from my. He's he's in he's an incredible Carriker and incredible integrity. He's he's genuine he is. You know he'd be. As if Europe quarterly not a politician. He Indians and that -- comes through and I think that that's kind of a good thing annoys."

[1:41]" The Suns -- there and won at least one side of the ones on the wing -- right and I won't mention it he won't use it that you mentioned like John Edwards."

[1:49]" Yeah exactly and most like to both the kind of things that. You know people. Everybody else would be built and it and then it just BP gross. -- opening yes. Be using standards are very different than other people's and there are. There'd be appreciated."

[2:08]" Baker as best as you can tell about what percentage how many your teammates. Care about what's going on pay attention last night speech talked about it with -- each other."

[2:18]" Imagine after the road -- biggest -- around on the on the just."

[2:22]" But I think generally. In ball generally interest to generally concerned. About what's happening in this country in the next four years."

[2:30]" couple of every -- just depends on the type of situation where he's aware of most Orton. There's something they can discuss but not this -- on the you know it's --"

[2:44]" To the know how much they pay in taxes."

[2:47]" You know it's -- things were where. There. Does change -- tax -- Not really relevant. For some people like the extra money you make because. You're paying at age you're you're making eight grossly in order amount of money already in -- is -- probably take most of fifty million dollar in taxes. Like."

[3:11]" You guys look at the checks -- and that was one like this and they looked it out I mean not many Americans but to -- Guys make a lot of -- you back look at and say oh my god you know what I paid this week in Texas."

[3:24]" Well let me we joke about it all time it's like general view -- don't largest -- Westwood police force. Salary for the next cricket. Warriors you know people who -- that stuff out there the -- again it's. It was a itself apart by the was in the last election people thought that you know eight is supporting bush is bush is gonna cut his taxes like. There's. And -- Orvella talk about talk about a presidential candidate you know it's. -- honest but I totally I understand. How important things like that are of people that don't make obscene amount of money is a big deal and -- it is a -- it is. -- issue."

[4:07]" Development is -- talk politics with. -- They talk about teammates that you can relate to I'm I'm sure you can relate to exactly what Josh Beckett must be feeling today when you have these five words appear in the same sentence Josh Beckett doctor James Andrews that's going to put. A hit in the senator stomach."

[4:29]" Yes yes but in the I think quicker but it also been. There was about something that I just heard Larry Barrett and that they can talk opting in -- Appeal that -- But -- I'll majesty here how everything plays out I don't know."

[4:51]" Do you have any sense of what would prompt -- to go to James Andrews like why why not just go to the team. Yeah. Not the other --"

[5:01]" Yeah but until that just -- history in Mike -- all. You know history between Sanders and that's where they and decrepit."

[5:11]" And I read you a quote from. From teammate from backed it up you have it in the you know ever -- it surprised me is just back races I think scary is probably good weren't that had some sleepless nights thinking about all kinds of stuff. You'd generally think the worse and I just it I mean I don't know Beckett you do he strikes me as a guy in a tough guy guy incompetent guy who wouldn't. The scared is that the way pitches when there's anything in the on the doesn't feel right."

[5:41]" And the other part of the Detroit don't get justice policy just is very I'm afraid -- You know two opponents Martin. You know on the news sisters situation and it often. So he's bounced -- to figure out the only sort of understand there's an urban ball -- talked about topic can be here."

[6:03]" What so what what the swagger of this team what part of the swagger this team would be lost to Beckett were not available for September -- October --"

[6:10]" at all you know that's. Two notes David -- did -- huge blow open. You know. You're you're about your point about the guy who's going to. Figure which was back on -- October you know. You know Hughes lost but I you know -- the quick directing the these -- be. -- opener and it works out."

[6:33]" Hey coming off his worst outing this season. Jon Lester turned at a pretty solid performance just today. Where you -- teammates of the opinion that -- you know what he's twenty innings over the -- 150 max and maybe the kids at the wall apparently that's not the case based on what we saw yesterday."

[6:49]" On these or on the he's just getting bigger and stronger debate moves away from. Was Timonen treatment everything gets back and to be in or all of that it's taken time that. He's an ace in the making him and he's continued to prevail earlier or get a bad -- you know day in. He bounced back against -- incredibly good offense and in. They Jerusalem points."

[7:13]" You know they're they're certain rules of the -- we just talk about one you -- to make an all kinds of money talk about how much money paying taxes and I -- the other is when you pitch like he did you come -- you think you're going to have a win and then suddenly see it in the you know Blake but I disappear. You can't sending -- I can't not only that you can enroll you get your eyes all the cameras on the right bunker."

[7:32]" Yeah -- end and you know your. You're disappointed. But -- there's not it's not. You don't give. Its way you deep to open as it'll get mad at people. It Matta situation you know it's it's indeed it ever needed doing. -- my -- From there will always you know why don't get my team through seven I got up in the -- We just spoke third of the game -- and rightly so much game for someone else to clean up in the order to run gave everything can happen and it. He's been so wait so. Now. Yeah there probably social -- himself but that that's the way it works."

[8:09]" It's like it never -- stunning pitching and -- yeah five days to wait to get him back aka that you elected enough to win they blow it. I would necessarily be met the guy but I'd be like throwing stuff from the dugout yell and."

[8:21]" Carded a part because if you go that far apart as part of afforded off. -- economic front through those or days. To get another chance to equal ability did last time he went two innings or somethin'. The only silicon -- Wait for raising in -- it up there it's the eighth season did -- state given -- and got a women or perhaps what happened."

[8:44]" Like A-Rod because of two double plays gets booed. He says I'll be here early tomorrow in Andy goes out he gets a couple doubles that he has still. And he gets him get rid of the booms. A -- of those boos to cheers in one day."

[8:58]" You know what happened. Yeah. It's much -- first -- it is produced."

[9:05]" It took them. What all four matches you -- for a final loss to Jim -- the bat in the right but it's going to get ugly in New York even though they won his game it's gonna get nasty. I mean the only thing I think people are going to have to pay attention Tuesday to close in the finished the final days of the stadium. And while they're their single by Yankee Stadium they might takes them blew a raw and brutal bunch of them. If there is completely out of the race in September."

[9:35]" And when the -- the front office goes out and and get the kotsay to replace JD Drew who's down for lord knows how long Byrd to replace furcal actually to replace Buchholz. Obviously it pretty clear what that does personnel standpoint and guess you can almost from -- production standpoint. But from a psychological standpoint in the clubhouse what does that do for a team --"

[9:54]" It doesn't -- you think it it is huge -- It's a commitment they beat. -- you know the team expects to do need to do away and and been in a lot of situations do you expect the same but all this Pope does every time the -- and there's something be done that -- in the parameters. Not stupid deal. They try to do so it's. It's been -- huge open. You know I still on in all -- affect the birdie get through waivers and but hey so what and then beat -- guys are good all the people called him big players."

[10:33]" Is anyone. Irreplaceable. On this team."

[10:38]" Up -- I am very effect. -- area at this point this season of guys."

[10:46]" Acre of a record a couple of different times that at that luncheon on the Jimmy Fund day and on the radio station in terms which -- you think your leaning a voucher career and you know it it it indicates. You know by your body language words your tone of voice it. You're probably going to say maybe spend more time with my kids and all that sort of stuff and obviously the decision hasn't been etched in stone but I'm wondering as the arm begins to feel better and better as the weeks turn in the months. Do you think that just from a human standpoint. You're gonna start leaning back the other way it's feeling better so Megan going to reconsider what I was. They've -- decision. -- Portland when will you make a decision."

[11:23]" It. When will that. -- war christmas. After christmas. Are you still leaning in the direction you've indicated he really leaving via like almost touching the ground leaving -- really leaning. What would have to happen for their lead in the other way -- don't. You'll know. It lefty late miraculous and I think."

[11:55]" It was you show up on the -- would you be there in the playoffs do you hang around."

[12:00]" I know I'm I don't know the -- Rob partisan. -- Mexico until April that it not old will do anymore also have been deliberately ask you do and I can imagine compete cases."

[12:11]" Well sure I -- what does your program consisting of at this point."

[12:15]" But state -- 4 kids that are are towards -- to bring it back in school. But wasn't about -- still -- anything. Yeah I mean I'm I'm door just to keep a lot of the great emotion. Oh I've got portrait allowing it to you'll for an extended through time. Which is nice but the bigger piece -- keep in the region most intellectually demotion progressing so. -- I do decide to play again her throat dinner what I. We want to go I want -- goal. Can work was --"

[12:48]" You get an MVP vote would you give the Pedroia Youkilis I mean. The whole league."

[12:53]" Help both fabulous and I thought those guys are even worse than Annan."

[12:58]" you know I don't. I don't why can't pick or the other right now are right they both deserve to be. I mean. You know -- or else."

[13:09]" Carlos Quinton nets who will we have -- race right now."

[13:13]" have a much for your -- but that's that's the old school what's -- home runs RBIs. You know the east -- well -- a lot of runs in army and you can keep you've done at all."

[13:25]" Well no surprises you more who's at least like less likely be sitting here right now in your mind there and it hell. Youkilis and Pedroia neither one of them has the pedigree you'd expect from an MVP which one has taken you by surprise more."

[13:43]" Peter I mean he's preparing for his career who will not."

[13:47]" I -- say that -- that at all I saw you. Fours in the big leagues and I think. It was a baseball. And I knew that he yeah okay he's not built like your typical baseball player doesn't know -- rally these baseball player to be -- Can't think and he said he used these four feet six but. You know he's he's or play baseball you know. If ever harris' fault that I had pretty easily. Became the player he he understands how to play the game you know it's just not one of those -- it's almost think we have -- over you guys commit. Some guys just are just born play baseball. And they don't look like debate in the go go. But that makes sense what they -- accepting what -- are certainly didn't expect. OP ticket -- batting title collecting key point too much. But you know it's almost like Vladimir Guerrero doesn't swing and miss hardly ever. There. And so I guess there's a little bit surprising. But you know. It's it's also this week."

[14:52]" It is and and you know what. You say guys are born to play baseball I assume you think other guys. -- born not to play baseball maybe not so much status. And and you look at him you both say the you know the kind of goofy looking in a weird way. -- unconventional looking and that's that's you know motivation inspiration that goofy looking kids everywhere."

[15:15]" Billups like look at the potter it felt good to -- well played real well. I don't. About bush. I think if if you -- Tokyo street fighter is -- debate with -- did -- very candidate you like -- it's guys what do."

[15:32]" Our you're going to campaign for your men --"

[15:35]" If you -- do we think form I'd certainly well."

[15:39]" Oh what should understand the jury and are running on the campaign -- a platform of a change cutting taxes and ice cream for everyone -- I like to -- on board with us we do appreciate -- support as well our beer on the beer beer. Right you can't. -- take -- really Dennis and Callahan brought to you by DC you digital federal credit union for banking the DC -- way go to DC you'd."
