[0:03]" What immaterial write their jobs that's that's been Rockefeller prior trying to beat serious journalists Felger -- serious writer on try to be as serious. Journalistic sideline reporter I don't want not very well -- very well at all on trying to beat Craig Sager and and I hear you are you going to drag things into the mud and sexual innuendoes and I don't appreciate it. Greg Dickerson voters and -- Dennis and Callahan. -- you remember yesterday you I don't remember I S I couldn't color I couldn't tell yesterday maybe chart you can figure out remember I couldn't tell whether. -- was embracing the hopes and WEEI or the callers bull. -- yeah. Well no I don't remember where they went out of the government development I don't remember anything Callahan the callers. It was all bore honestly don't what was in the -- it was actually been nice one. I'm not responsible on and that was and that's the way you people do things. Like that I guess -- I can't remember. It's all as one big board day. -- five. Of the like voter experts are directors and experts on Dennis and Callahan because of report Friday right correct. Are not going to be -- that really report just Allen talked about Manny and -- liberal judges and that pretty much it that's. Right it's -- it's not really get beat reform for -- because my guesses were going to go in one direction and it's not necessarily Matt -- it's going to be I thought maybe last night about. 745750. I thought maybe just maybe they might be some good back -- quarterback -- but at. Now thank you Dan -- Thank you well there's a matter Miller's development if you well on a look at that -- fish tank. Will level today it's not a story of the globe and a second but let's spend a few minutes -- game because it is brash. And that wasn't good it really wasn't good. Malkin has lost that nothing to do with that by some of the certain specific players we were looking -- going into the game. Really it is just get to who who was of all the guys that -- watching last night who was the most disappointing -- like the biggest -- comes down to -- Matt -- Chad it was it died he would it doesn't it comes out of Chad Jackson I can't figure out was what I -- it comes at a Chad Jackson simply because. Judge Jackson was the second round draft pick Chad Jackson -- I I I don't want to say expect because you can't expect you hole. Or hope. The Chad Jackson would be a reliable member of the wide receiver course it's immediate it's it's not even close I was questioning whether Matt -- even. Was going to make this football team going into it now I question whether Chad Jackson makes this football club once again and you -- Jackson third year Matt Cassel. There fourth year right."
[2:49]" Watch track and yet at this point you figure that okay this is their shot this is their. Last camping if you will chance to prove themselves make this team for Cassell to establish himself as the number two Chad Jackson. There's a job. Potentially in the starting lineup -- a state visit number two wide receiver. Because the -- play three receivers more often than not and a lot Wes Welker in the slot so they're looking for that outside guy opposite Randy Moss that job is just sitting there. Donte' Stallworth leaves. If Chad Jackson looks good he can have that job is that he looks brutal awful. Running the wrong routes we thank. Dropping balls. No separation between him and his defender just. Did not look good all the not flash did not -- development and that's disappointing because I agree with you Greg but I had the natural schools is a player. Did the pats -- traded up to the number 36 pick to get."
[3:44]" It is what's so frustrating about Jack Jack and again apply. A separate on the site meter he is much higher on that sucked meter and Matt -- because he's got the tools to BA. Very good -- respect wide receiver and be a legitimate. You know. About one -- a -- next -- Randy Moss and be a guy and constructs the field Jets seventy or eighty balls will be different kind of a number two wide receiver it and then some like Wes Welker. It's always bugged me about Chad Jackson. Is he's always going to have this going to. Swagger and attitude now like out players rarely do what they suck well bet that's what I don't like it backing up it's because he's always carry added as the last night. On TV the effort from Chad Jackson during this camp as we talked about you know I've got this dementia and baton in Mike's beaten. Stop talking about yourself stop stop telling us all how wonderful you walk in get out of the field. And actually mentally and perform like about this eight I can't say catch a ball because he detectable last night's oil service dropped every catch a ball. Any yard putt that one Jets last night for zero yards."
[4:52]" Instead of saying. I do everything I can pull one yeah it is fun of the other impress at this practice make one play it might try my coaches trust one night that get back at a tomorrow. All world coach writes up much all -- beat. Which like he can't play. Disappointing because of the job there for him. Doesn't seem like he wants to -- that. And -- gap it looked like number two outside receiver okay. Which is okay but it's life private but let's face it Jabar Gaffney again it's it's it's all about. -- baseball -- that potential kind of thing. He has the stuff to be number one or number two starter Chad Jackson has the potential to be better and more dynamic. Electable against right that's -- that's disappointing. Cassell to me I guess is disappointing because like you -- our expectations are immoral war a lot of people thought it would make the team. I just again it's disappointing because one point. I thought they were -- something today because obviously. A elevated him -- some topic of the number two quarterback and a couple of years to keep -- veterans last year they. Trusted -- castles and they saw something in him as well it is is -- talking. And he does this thing with him. Is that he hasn't shown improvement he looks the same for years you know it looks like he's still looks like a guy who hasn't played it down didn't play it down in college football he still looks shaky still as nervous as he started bicycle he -- he played okay but he'll get started a game started game all through college and barely played as well. I thought at this point in time. His decision making and -- comparable level it and around the pocket would be much better than it is but he still looks like the guy -- still doing things that he did that first pre season two -- work. Patting the ball where to go with the ball. Hot out field you don't feel like don't feel like as he said in his. Ten deep thoughts with the return. -- ten deep thoughts number six. Matt Cassel doesn't booklet and a ball quarterback and he never. He had start a football game in eight years yet people always say Matt -- very good back up quarterback -- Now not one just not one but anyway I -- he's nice to the media. -- for news that we have and it to him a solid number two. Deep but. We give a rat's ass back. Special treatment people. Cassell has been that active in the media Preston do that we and number two because protected on -- Jenrette records Randy Moss Tim -- not exactly. Darlings of the media in. You rarely see anything -- you rarely seen anything written poorly about -- and -- Kevin -- yeah I'll pay its immediate thing it's a young. It's a young guy thing that they'll Baltic elevated when bill -- takes a young player and never started a game in college -- Okay -- my -- life legacies on the ballots -- promote somebody. Like I tell all he knows more than I do -- something. But they're not here and it just underscores the backup quarterback situation that got away with a last year it was Catholic Gutierrez. And that was the court I think at two guys a couple of weeks. On the quarterback situation last year that got away with that. They're back where they start with that is I think. Locked in mind kinda backed up with played a snap or what."
[8:21]" They they do even more so knowing that counts let's face it operating 28 now. He's 3131 years old. 31 year old quarterbacks have more of a propensity to go up there and get nicks and dings and maybe have to miss a game here look at. Peyton Manning Peyton Manning may very well miss the opening game for the NBA Indianapolis Colts he had never been injured or is listed as questionable with a shoulder and should injuries."
[8:52]" A betting man Greg the batting -- the whole season not not to -- he is he is but the percentages. Of him. Getting nicked up or having. And MC else wearing your water ever -- are higher now than they were a couple of years ago and the fact that lets face it we've seen him -- practice. We didn't see him play last night it all. Gets you. Not concern but makes you think okay. We better have more of an insurance policy and Matt Cassel or or or Gutierrez are oral coddle this team has always been so -- depth throughout the roster why. Not happen at the most important position on the field I mean to suggest. The does your job building a team to what it is that's coaching that's coach in the league. That's roster in the league right there knocking at the door of the Super -- window of opportunity is getting any bigger so or any longer you're right her. -- the -- and insure yourself against an injury to your best player. I think with a reasonable starting quarterback in the -- are still playoff team deep play -- great debate push harder. For Chad Pennington who by the way I mean I don't know if they're -- in the fourth all I don't know."
[10:06]" Okay -- do -- do they make a push for Chad Pennington -- Chad. Listen you -- trade that we talked about it yesterday you get a chance here. To learn you don't have to go get your brains -- yeah you can start Miami but good luck good luck winning games and good luck. Staying healthy with that football team in that may hurt you down the road let's face it Chad you're 31 years old. If I'm Chad Pennington -- I'm Chad Pennington agent I'm not jump to Miami a much open and anybody. Right now got a I'm taking a wait and see approach because you've still got three more pre season games for the teams like Baltimore and Chicago and maybe Chicago what's that Rex Grossman and Kyle Orton and says okay we've absolutely seen enough. Same thing with Baltimore maybe somebody gets -- I have to meet -- rushing to any decision right now at all."
[10:54]" There's a pitch for the pages debate Chad Pennington barriers whether he bites or not I don't know if you want to start. There's no chance of getting it does no chance but he talked him into. More value in sitting on the bench for a year and it would potentially winning a ring and and really kick in the -- free agency a year after if he can bite on that then I think it's. Definitely something they got to look at and it's not. They got to figure something else out and I don't know what's available around the league maybe you'll look at that today some other guy I don't know who still sitting there. You know as a free agent. But maybe there's a way to try and other veteran who's backing up some Morales to your team and and they've got to do something because you solid the back of situation is behind Brady last night. And it's terrible one now -- or negative one more time Fernando Bryant. Free agent quarter Forrest I verse three plays first replaced game a ball or -- the and the Ravens go. To that side three easy completions Fernando Bryant. Gay couple hot last night early in the ball game on the other side Terrence Wheatley. Did that they brought it that much but he seemed that. You know he was giving up the plate that the about on the other side was giving up. The good knows the one guy that they offered to let."
[12:04]" the offensive line and I -- was. Kind of mix and match in a lot of it we -- it was a back at. The offensive line but struggled through through most of that football game you're going to go to the -- exactly -- no doubt that the of the line struggled. The goaded the -- it happened last that Nobel tech went for too. At the end of the game as opposed don't -- to didn't put anyone anymore of that misery that's and others like people of the -- Jack. But. Jared male -- like holy bull mean the kid you -- just. The the recognition. And that burst this media at one tackler -- he knocked the running back -- helmet off which. Got a good reaction from the crowd but Greg -- back and watched it in my office there and meet you but the first -- used to be your yes wicket. What about a dozen plays. To me the recognition of run pass was important as a young player. That's sort of hard to come by team like you had a right out of that shoot well what was the what was the old line the rookie year of -- I think it was Chris Slade the Bill Parcells -- tejada is -- rookie Slade. Look up -- looks like a ball in tall grass he looks lost but at that that wasn't the case -- and you could understand. First game maybe some nerves that. The recognition. Of plays would not necessarily be there. If he wasn't making plays he seemed to be in the right position all through the game absolutely covered guys it felt like he was supposed to cover. He shut down blocks made tackles in the middle field against the rod got out on screen passes. Again encouraging and that's. That's the way he looked the first two extra training camp of the people's that he can't see anything learning thing at training camp it's not true two -- mailed seem to flash at training camp he'd work with the starters. Through that first and second weekend. That you saw last night out wasn't a flash authorities looked pretty much the whole time that's -- urging on if -- It's still important because it hates a -- Thomas outside it keeps Mike Vrabel outside and it helps takes so much of the pressure off Tedy Bruschi next and they get younger and faster on defense that's that's what you have to do that's what they tried to do. And it victor hobson veteran is starting inside next -- 38 year old Teddy Bruschi Andre asked -- what would you be surprised and."
[14:20]" And I and I -- I think that this team is going to be primarily a defensive team I think this team's going to be a lot more like all three and all four doubles the last year. I think -- going to beat down. But still -- that they'll be good but I think that this team will win them but if you liberal 32 win in 109 intends if that's going to be like that. But I think they win the majority of their games because the defense. Is winning games I think it has become that good partially part of it is male the other is. I'm just so light on deals -- I loved him. Last year. Despite the fact that he had some struggles in learning inside but I just think that natural outside position just makes him that much more danger about one other I mean Dryden has got it from more than two weeks one pre season game like he Wheatley. You know in the mix but those -- can play -- asking him to do everything and that's -- point Felger you're single. What she's got. You get Tedy Bruschi to help meant to you right next you you got Ford damn good or three game good a defensive lineman in front of you three. Legitimate all pro guys and then you've got. Two legitimate Pro Bowl outside linebackers we'll -- about asking him to do everything and can carry the fence like a lot of young teams ask of top ten."
[15:32]" While anyway that's the story that I'm biologist. How many of those -- integrated on defense does that deepens. Looked better than it has does have a little more play making. Ability use fresher legs younger legs are those guys playing that's -- thank. Important for that Patriots team who will -- but that's about the course the morning as much as you like. Phone number 617779850. Toll free 888525850. Emails at Dennis and Callahan at WEI dot com. I'll go back to Manny -- because there's nude or -- that. Well. Tell if we should be. Yeah -- in the Boston Globe like a column today. Entitled many mania takes over LA and he spends over half the column. Talking about what man he's hitting another home run last night for Manny FYI. He's outing -- 65. Since the trade thirteen for 23 Ford daggers nine RBI. His OP tax. One point 665. Are you kidding me all the prices but I'm I'm still I'm while what are we need to go back to -- all of his desire I understand we've seen -- another home run last night but. But -- felt that we need to go back to -- also Dan asks he writes feeling a little duped Red Sox Nation. Still wondering if this whole thing was on the liable. Meaning nannies trade from Boston holly looked at last a week -- so he says you're not alone. The commissioner's office is investigating the circumstances. Of Manny is final hours with the Red Sox. The globe has learned from a source with direct knowledge of the inquiry. That but Selig directed Major League Baseball executive vice president Bob -- To contact all parties for an explanation of how things -- last week's trading deadline. Here's why -- offices looking into the matter. And now I -- dangled in the background that all familiar with red the Red Sox had an option to retain Ramirez in 9 for twenty million the same option for 2010. Ramirez who'll turn 37 next season. Wanted to be a free agent at the end of the season his agent wanted the same thing Scott -- inherited Ramirez's old contract and -- are nothing. Until Manny signed to know one. It was in the interest of the player and the agent to have options dropped. Man he's only leverage rights atrocity well its withholding services and playing at half speed so that's what he did. Sitting out games against Seattle in the Yankees jogging down the first base line and even looking at those three strikes against -- area Rivera Bobble doll. He set he set the message that he wanted out. Shots he writes he made sure the Sox know he could not be trusted to play hard they kept him until the end of the season with the options in tact. Now he says and writes that after the trade the globe reported that -- called the Sox and that Manny would stay and play hard for the rest of this year. If the club merely dropped the option and Jerry Remy had told us. -- on the show a couple of days ago he had heard the exact same self then is Dan as a -- Scott Boras denying. That claim. Just goes on to -- the Sox remained conspicuously. Quiet. -- careful not to offend Boris. Who represents several other Boston players including J. D. Drew and their attack I'm going -- added Daisuke Matsuzaka and Jacoby Ellsbury. There are tech of course a free agent at the end of the season. As well. Its shots -- so many trade puts a lot of pressure on mr. Henry Werner and Lucchino and Epstein not to mention the Boston ballplayers. If the Sox failed to make the playoffs the on the trio will be accused of letting emotions get the better of good sense. Meanwhile David Ortiz still looks for something to hit. Dodgers are exempt sisco this week in the return on the start selling the many -- Monday night I've already got mines and John."
[19:22]" Here's here's my only issue with this whole thing."
[19:26]" Does anybody in two of us think that the Red Sox were going to pick up -- option for 2009. Even if he never had the issues in Seattle even if there was never the the battle on the shoulder in the three strikes against Mariano Rivera just based on his performance this year okay which is good. But not great certainly not worth twenty million dollars. Really believe that they were going to pick up that twenty million dollar option don't think there's any shots. I think there's a shot but. 15%. You mean did you was -- high is 5050 -- really think that they wanted the day amid a wanted to get rid of Manny they wanted to get rid of many Felger when he was still late. Great top. Two or three hitter in all of baseball let alone you know eight just have a very good theater now which says he's a very good hitter but he's not worth. Forty million dollars this this radio station. I've well oiled the I'm on because somebody told that the only able to dim -- who call and while most most host politician most hosted dim -- So I don't -- I prefer not to I used to listen to another showdown McDonald's on it was very static he was very good."
[20:36]" When I -- I don't want to listen but I went I don't know what happened. There repellent."
[20:41]" It felt like and it and it wasn't static he was the issue actors like while metallic -- underneath everything. Curry radio was better and it's really -- do -- help either but. Greg I a lot of people on the stations today. The probably going to pick up that option and they should pick up that option for a year hurdle I think -- talked about a week after week after week I think I'm -- game here it's our -- they pick up the option this war. It got macular and it got really bad last week or two with a trade deadline but I think people but it was a shot -- 37 and he won 3800 again. What you twenty ambulance that that I have an overpayment for one year for guys produce like that I think it was a shot I think -- in boards more. Rightly -- believe whatever the Red Sox told them -- and you know they won the Red Sox -- won't pick up 91 with a Red Sox do and I and I and I heard people say that. Her callers like -- lead before mentioned him with callers that you referred to before -- questioned him. You considered. Tell him putting it right right right. Because. Doing things that takes a lever to like do well it's average winning games and getting the World Series again. A lot of drag and and I I know is that I -- that they might consider that out but. But they don't want them. Right at and I might not doing it in spring training it's too early to get away but when you reach this point. It's obvious what he's doing and giving the guy anyway -- is given -- and able as opposed to giving it all and someone else that are making you worse. I mean a lot of shots that gives you a lot because I don't think they wanted to -- can't -- I think they really. As we later found out by Gordon by Jeremy he wanted to stay here. He desperately wanted to stay years it was more book out of a shot at Manny Ramirez to deal him on appearance and in the Los Angeles no matter what he -- Just if the Sox they'll make the playoffs -- in the trio will be accused of letting your emotions get the better of good sense. I think there's a little something through that. This time Manny really got to and it got such a great job or for seven plus years. Beat Jack -- Alternately -- and make the decision that's best for our baseball team. And screw Manny you know he's going to happen on the line eventually and they did that for seven plus years and years -- the eight. -- or gave up on what they finally they gave up because they said all right. It's not worth that hey we want a World Series last year beat his production is down and he's just not worth the NC. More than likely we were going to let him go beyond the year anyway so it's not like we're given up on an -- with two years to go on a contract while he stills is still hit forty and 130. It well so important the year -- to to draft picks and use -- when he going to sign Mark Teixeira. I mean -- rights are we so worried about their money at what they're going to do they have the money but they canceled -- to get their two draft picks after Bailey's. A year and a half from now two things that. Have to wait another year and all is it to first -- a player to be at least -- the two for tropics. Bay's numbers he said. Pretty good numbers would be to first Olympic is guaranteed to be -- I don't think he's guaranteed that. If you if you if you Britain got -- got your first round to a 221. But. Look at what day is done over the course the last five years April last season I'm a dispatcher that threshold is by. On the line at that epic like you say Greg. He gave it the last week of July I'll give you think at that point it's all week right -- little three you know he's not the same guy if nobody nobody sixty no -- butler's -- other point 655. -- yes. Guys. Well typical what you do Felger what people like you do what pissed you off so much if you take things out of context and you willing to use. You've arguments defeat your point you don't tell the whole story different -- and what we career -- radio station or well the old story I also -- That Manny would still have the ability and still has the ability to just be ridiculously white hot. For the courts and stretch of seven games oral week it's Manny does over the course of the next couple of Mary. Continues to like it's or close to hitting like this. Well that's pretty -- one point 65 Bible PS -- obviously not going to hit I've let let's let's see you mean he's able to keep up. A pace of what he was able to do 234 years I always felt he was. Gary contract drive was always in his -- was always with the in his abilities I'd your thoughts on this Red Sox. Cry over spilt milk being mobilized they deserve to Major League Baseball what Manny. And Boris your thoughts while -- 617779850. Toll free 888. 525850. -- opera on now 45 on the meter be. What's up with this kid. -- I thought it was close to."
[25:58]" We should put you what."
[26:01]" want to let it be said. Third straight day with bronchitis and I'm here. And once that TV last night at any other way while -- like a guy -- set at once again my source is that's some out west and suburban. JC season that would be Jewish community centers those you scoring at home. A report that -- about the case of laryngitis. Which I'm sure that he blasted Manny and Pedro over you know day after day yesterday about which loosely translates it's sore throat correct. What I don't like to know is and we have. We have fun at the time in his. Did you the -- media days that a week ago I I would bet out of their I would bet any amount of money that he will be well then don't we have agreements don't yeah. We're going to monitor that. Joe Vargas he can did you the sport slash your phone calls just appeal."
