He is actually going to eject a fan. Because bad things happen in Philadelphia, bad things. The fan jumped into the penalty box area. Joy doesn't come to Philadelphia and stand here and dodge ice balls. We, the Dallas Cowboys, had assassinated John Kennedy. The thing I want to talk about is, before we even get into it, if you go to Purdue, if you root for Purdue, if you're a Purdue fan, if you know anyone in your life who you love who went to Purdue, fuck you. Fuck you. Absolutely.

Fucking horrible. So we're now canceling Neil Armstrong. Yeah, good. Good. Oh, he went to the moon. Wow, great.

You know what? Not only did he hear the Nasheed when he landed on the moon and converted to Islam, he was apostate when he came back. He denied it. You know, I hope that's real uh that's that's actually uh something that that people in the parts of the middle east believe

that he genuinely heard the nashid when he landed on the moon and that he converted to islam on the spot like okay people i know believe that that's not even that's not even the dumbest thing i've ever heard man no it's not it's just funny. Like, it's just... That's their conspiracy versus, like, the dumb... Well, we did it on the soundstage because the flag was waving. It's like, Jesus Christ, have you seen the video? It's a fucking thing with a stick in it. The flag has a stick in it, and it's rippled because it's fabric.

It wasn't iron. Like, Jesus Christ. I always liked the conspiracy theory that they actually wanted to fake the moon landing but kubrick insisted on doing all shots on location yeah that's a good one yeah like like if you don't think the moon landing is real please don't listen to this podcast i mean it's it's the the soviets would have fucking called us out like they we can tell that would have been a propaganda victory for a million years yeah you we can tell where radio signals come from you can back when radio shack existed you could go down and build a radio direction finder for like

13 you know and figure out whatever signal was coming from so i mean why are they always shouting in my fucking house tom um i would say that you're almost an honorary kenzo at this point it's just constantly shouting in my fucking house like i'm a loud dude and i'm just do we need the pause you need to check no if they're dead they're dead okay all right it's happy yelling it's not it's not yeah it's it's ken yelling. It's not panicked yelling. It's Kenzo yelling. This is how I talk. I have maximum volume all the fucking time. I am not calling her a Kenzo, by the way.

It's Philly yelling. I wouldn't do that because that's an insult. And that's only a word that Kenzos can use. So I have the K word privilege. You can't call me a Kenzo. I can call anyone a Kenzo that's from Kensington and it won't be offensive.

But from anyone else it is. Duly noted. You think I'm actually joking. It actually kind of is that way. Oh, no. You can call me a Kenzo. You have the K word pass. I sort of get that in like when

people make fun of like central pennsylvania i'm like listen that is my redneck shithole right right leave me alone yeah no it's it's definitely yeah well it's it's like don't make like don't come after my shit because like if it was someone from the northeast making fun of kensington it's like shut the fuck up you're all cops like shut up yeah like you're punching down you know so no i i get that i uh like i said i remember i was driving i think i've told the story but i was driving corinne and a couple of her friends uh we were going to gettysburg for the day from philly and we hit the adams county line and they're just like what is that smell because they were fertilizing the fields and i'm just like where do you fucking think your food comes from yep that uh there was a slaughterhouse next to my first grade school i went to yeah and every so often they would like release the gases

yeah and then uh as i as i got older i read Jungle, and he describes the smell. I was like, oh, that's the smell we're talking about. That's what that was. That's the sickly sweet smell of rotting carcass and Polish hands. So, yeah. Tasty. Yes. Purdue, fuck the Purdue Boilermakers and fuck Purdue the Chicken Makers. Yes.

No, those are bad people. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm proud of myself for that segue, but the segue went nowhere. So I'm just going to say hello and welcome to another episode of 10,000 Losses, the only Philadelphia sports podcast. The only podcast. Actually, we've expanded. We're the only podcast.

We're the only podcast. We're actually the only that exists. We are. we're what's the one you can't say can you say yahweh is that the one you can say uh or is it adonai i say adonai if you will yeah easy so on and so forth easy easy scott um all right well speaking of names my name's tom pain and my pronouns are he him and i'm here with my co-host yay liam liam. My pronouns also are he, him. Oh, yeah. So now that we've offended every Purdue Boilermaker fan. Fuck you.

Now that we've offended the creator of the universe. Yeah. It's whatever. Yeah, we're fucked. Listen, after the Holocaust, I'm not sure god i could even offend god jesus christ uh i don't want to go with that okay um if a loving god allowed the holocaust to happen then fuck him right in his dumb god face um there are many whales ways of dealing with the problem evil and yours is the most honest way yeah Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, I've caught it to the point where I sort of believe God exists,

but he sucks. Hmm. Uh, my Sotheism, God loves you, but he doesn't like you very much. Just, it's just like your podcast.

Yeah. Well, our podcasts with his plural. Yeah. Podcast. I hate you back. So, and this is the podcast that fights itself to differentiate. Oh yeah, that's. And this is the podcast that fights itself

to differentiate. Oh yeah, that's right. We are the podcast that fights itself. How are your bruises healing from the fist fight on Saturday? Not so good, Tom. No? That's all good. Got a mean right hook, Tom does. Actually do.

I believe it. Oh, fuck. So we are doing great today. We live in a great world that God has created for us. Everything is fine. Nothing bad is happening. Printers are working as they're meant to. I fixed it.

I fixed it. With your fist. I honestly thought about hitting it. I lost my temper pretty quick. Yeah. That scene from Office Space is eternally true. Yes. Oh, yes.

Yeah. And yeah. So, fuck printers. I think that's official stance of our podcast. And yeah. So, I don't think we have any announcements. We're going to be trying to do some sort of bonus next week. Yeah, with our potentially idiot compatriot. Yeah.

He managed to get wind that we brought the rope and guns. So he evaded me and then drank the beer I brought. So yeah. Yeah. Thanks. Thanks, bud. so i pay you ten dollars a fucking month for it i feel you're paid anyway uh so we'll be trying to do a bonus hopefully not the last hour of the last day of march but probably no probably and we do have

we have a poll right now on patreon if you are a patron about what sort of bonus content you would pay $3 a month for. And, uh, if you don't want to, that's okay too. Yeah, that's fine too.

And you can also like, you can pay us a hundred dollars a month. Like it's not capped at $1. So, uh, we have, uh, the leading right now is like a monthly live Q and a.

So I really like that. If you like that, go go become a patron and vote on it. There's also a Twitch stream, which is kind of that's losing. And then sports writing, which I probably we could handle some sports writing. Maybe, maybe. No, I could, but I'm also just busy but we'll see uh but we we we have a request that when you do if we do sports writing wins it's not actually going to be the article but just the sound of your mechanical keyboard oh okay and you infer what you're saying through the keys

that's fun i like like that. Yeah. Set up a stereo mic so you can tell which side of the keyboard. I like that a lot, actually. Yeah. And speaking of Patreon, you can call in on voicemail and let us know what you think about that. I had 267-371-7218 and patreon.com slash 10,000 losses spelled out with the word, not the number. Not just the number, right? Yeah.

So, yeah. So, do that. And let's talk about the greatest sport ever invented. The sport that created a republic that no monarchy could have produced. Rounders is a thing that exists, but... Yeah, yeah.

Rounders does exist. But not in this country. No, we have baseball. Yeah. So let's talk about that. Yeah, baseball. So when we last potted, we were talking about who maybe the Phillies could have signed. And we were talking about Chris Bryant the Phillies could have signed, and we were talking about Chris Bryant.

Well, that didn't happen. He signed a ridiculously long deal with the Rockies. Rockies, right? Which, that fucking sucks, dude. I think I said he's going to hit 50 home runs, the same number of wins they're going to get. Yeah. Yeah, you did.

That's funny. That is fucking funny. Yeah. And for the same price we got combined we have Kyle Schwerber and the newest stud in town Nick Castellanos very handsome boy handsome

dude swagger um he is he's I mean yeah he's like I don't I didn't go to college I hit baseballs for a living like this dude is a Philly guy already that's what I want man yeah um he's got a bit of attitude he's got swagger go look up the video of him getting hit by the pitch and then later coming

by to score and he just goes into the pitcher's face. Like, oh, you like that? You like that? And then it almost starts a fight. Good. Yeah. Baseball needs more of. I'm honestly happy for that. Yeah. So this is Wednesday. We're recording it on the 23rd.

Cassiano still has not shown up. Well, he showed up at camp. But he just signed the contract yesterday. Yesterday. Yeah. So he should probably be in one of the spring training games this week. I mean, we're very close to opening day. This is the shortest spring training in a long time.

Opening day is the 8th of April. Oh, holy shit. Wow. Yeah, and baseball is actually allowing for a 28-man roster for the month of April, which is usually something that only happens in september and later right so they're actually it sounds like trying to maybe like not kill all these dudes yeah yeah i think they're gonna let you know i think the phillies this is said they're planning on carrying all like those two extras pitchers so i mean that makes sense. That's what you would do, I would think.

Yeah, just so that no one gets hurt. And it might be that we see someone like Zach Wheeler or Ranger Suarez who got a late start to training. They might not go seven innings or first out. They might be capped. And that's fine. It's the beginning of the year. You want to save your guys' energy. Especially with the rotation being what it is. They might be capped. And that's fine. It's the beginning of the year. You want to save your guys' energy. Exactly.

Especially with the rotation being what it is. I actually wanted to ask. I think I've said this on this podcast. If not, I am not the biggest baseball guy. I am, unfortunately, a Red Sox fan by training. But yeah, so what does the rotation look like now? So the rotation is actually good. I would say I'm very happy with the starting rotation. You have Zach Wheeler, who was a CIA runner-up.

Wow, CIA. Huh. Yeah. I meant Cy Young. I know what you meant. Don't worry. Yeah, Cy Young runner-up. I was thinking of you. That's why I thought of CIA. Oh, Yeah. I meant Cy Young. I know what you meant. Yeah. Cy Young runner up. I was thinking of you.

That's why I thought of CIA. Oh, okay. Yeah. Oh. So he was a Cy Young runner up and also fellow red bearded shaved head guy. Shaved head gangs. Yeah. And then we have Nola who had a subpar season last year, but I think he's due for a bounce back.

He's got wicked breaking balls. They're just nasty. He just needs to trust his fastball more. Then number three would be Ranger Suarez, who pitched like fucking insane last year. I don't expect him to pitch as good as he did last year. He had like a sub one whip walks, hits per inning pitch, you know,

less 1.2 or less is really good. His was, his was in like, you know, it was like 0.8 or something like that. Sure. Damn. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. So he was really good. Uh, then you have Kyle Gibson as the four, which is fine. He's a ground ball guy, though, so he throws like a sinker that likes to dart down, and I'm not too confident about this defense with ground ballers.

No, it doesn't matter. We've already established it doesn't matter. We're going to win every game 13-12. Yeah, and Zach Eflin is, if that's your number five, Zach Eflin – I mean, he was the number three last year. So Zach Eflin is a pretty good back end of your rotation guy. So I think we're pretty good this year for starting pitching. The only concern is depth. And so in the bullpen, if we don't – the issue is like if these guys can't go long, like what's going to be waiting for them in the bullpen? And the bullpen if we don't that the issue is like if these guys can't go long like what's going to be waiting for them in the bullpen and the bullpen's okay we have a lot of like you know you have jurors familia and brad hand as a setup guys we have a cory knable as a closer

and yeah none of these names are jumping out of you but like we have got like familia and like jose alvarado these guys are like either they're going to be throwing 100 mile per hour fastballs in like up and in like like a millimeter into the strike zone right with laser precision or they're gonna be beating guys in the head okay yeah or throwing balls it just into the crowd does not bother me i am good so i think we got a couple other guys like the bullpen is full of guys that have a lot of good stuff so you got like uh kind of rocked and who was really good he's like probably one of my favorite guys last year played uh we had san cunha and fuck that guy he's like i'm not i'm not for black lives matter because black lives matter is marxism

and i'm a christian okay guy yeah yeah sure that's those that makes logical sense why not why not you know what jesus said about you know capitalism yeah no it's fine dude you're fucking idiot yeah so he's he's but he throw bar ball hard so okay. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean, I don't know. We're up to like a 60% chance of making it to the playoffs. The latest projection. Okay. That's better than it was. Yeah.

Yeah. So, again, like this team is all gas, no brakes. It's dingers. It's just big guys who can hit ball hard. Right. Which can be fun to watch. Yeah, I mean, I'm happy about it. Yeah, I mean, you grew up with Red Sox fans,

so you're used to the American League baseball, which is kind of like this. I'm definitely a small ball fan, but at the end of the day, if the Phillies are going to win and we're going to get... When this town becomes a Phillies town... Oh, it's like nothing else, dude. Yeah, because this is

normally a football city. And when baseball takes its rightful place back as the thing everyone's calling in the sports radio on, it really is something awesome. So I just – people in this city, though, are immune to understanding things

other than batting average. Right. Yeah. So that's the only stat they look at. So that's why people are like, Coach Rubio is career 237 hitter. He stinks. It's like, okay.

Well, there's a lot of stuff that actually matters. Yeah. Yeah, you can actually hit 400, and it's all singles. And's a lot of stuff that actually matters so yeah yeah you could actually hit 400 it's all singles and while that would be very good you could also like fall over your own face every time there's like a ball hit and keep getting outs and you know so there's like a whole bunch of other shit so um in spring training things are going all right. The team's 3-2-1. I mean, not that it matters, but you do want to see some sort of, like, signs of things. So, there are.

I mean, Deedee's look good. Harper has not looked that great, but he's just, you know, he's coming off, you know, MVP season. I'm not too worried. And Schwarber struck out twice today but man boom looks like hot ass like bad yeah yeah i i saw some some some screen some screen grabs and they were not good yeah he looks a lot like loss and his batting average like they've played him almost every game and he's only batting. I know I just made a joke about batting average, but it's like 0.91. Okay, that's bad. That's when you should hit the panic button.

I'm sorry. Yeah, 0.091. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And how many opportunities? I'm not sure. It's probably... But still, you should be... If someone's hitting 200, like, eh... But if you've had 15 at-bats already, I mean, it's not a like, eh, but if you've had like 15 at-bats already,

like, I mean, it's not a cause to scream, but you know. It's not good in a certain way. Yeah, man. He keeps hitting balls right into the ground. He's got power. His first Major League home run was like a line drive into the deepest part of Truist Park,

into the fountain down in Atlanta, or outside atlanta and uh like the kid can slug like when he gets the barrel right but i don't know what the fuck anyway and but one good thing is that a doable has like some like right back thing going on oh no that he might not make it oh no dude i'm so sorry to hear that yeah and matt veerling who's the guy he would platoon with has actually looked pretty good and you don't need your center fielder to be a slugger the set that those who don't know too much about baseball is like you traditionally consider the like center field shortstop and catcher are guys who don't have to hit and it's nice if they do right but who don't have to hit. And it's nice if they do.

Right. But they don't have to. If everyone else can hit, who cares? We have a catcher who can hit. So that's good. Didi can hit. Maybe he'll come back. He's hitting really well.

Looks like he's here in the spring training. And there's a couple guys that look good. The younger guys have made a good impression. know here in the uh in the uh spring training and there's a couple guys that look good the younger guys have made a good impression so we'll see uh nick maytons look good who's who's who's fighting for like the last infield like spot so bench piece but yeah no so phillies phillies uh i'm still excited i know i don't sound it right now, but I'm very excited. I will be seeing them three times in April. Good.

I'm just glad they're back for you, man. Yeah. And I can't wait to make you uncomfortable at the game. Thank you. That's what we like to hear. That's what I always want to fucking hear. Yeah. You want to sit next to someone for three hours who's going to annoy you, right?

I've flown for 14 hours non-stop before i can put up with anything okay i bought extra pencils so we could both score the game no i'm not doing that with you i'm not scoring the game you you are all by yourself on that one i i i i my dad tried to teach me how to score it when I was like seven or eight. And I was like, this is – no. I just like got mad. I was like, I'm not doing this. They're doing it professionally. I keep getting it wrong.

I don't know anything. Stop. I want to go home. I do have a funny story. My dad was like a fucking weirdo. And he – one time we were coming back from the baseball game. And we were leaving early, which I fucking hate. And he's like, well, I'm going to leave early to beat the traffic.

So, we get in the car. And those who know down by Oregon Ave, there's an active rail track that cuts through. And we got stuck behind like huge-ass freight train. And just waiting and waiting. And we're listening to the radio and the game's over. And then the thing... It's like, well, if we actually... Dad, if we waited till the end of the game,

we would have seen the rest of the game and then also not had gotten stuck behind this fucking car. Don't you feel stupid? Don't you feel silly? My dad in trains, like he... The other time we got stuck behind a train

at a crossing, he blamed it on my mom, who apparently was intimately familiar with the CSX schedule. Good for her. Yeah, that's... Your mom knew this would happen. That's why she had me drive you. I was like, okay, Dad. Alright, guy. Relax. Can we just go so I can play football?

Thanks. Alright, so baseball. What else is going on? Tom's haunted childhood. What other sport is going on in this town right now uh basketball uh yeah so the sixers uh oh boy uh they uh they whether they last play of Monday, uh, we'll beat the heat on Monday. Yeah. Uh, the Sixers did beat the heat convincingly, I would say.

Yes. Uh, so that actually ruled. They played the LeBron-less Lakers tonight on the West Coast. Uh, I want to talk about Tyrese Maxey. Uh, fucking looking amazing. He, he took over the game uh yeah yeah I mean we've been saying this like constantly like kids it's definitely special he's special getting better yeah he's second year I mean there are criticisms of him to be made

certainly but like I the dude's got and I mean this as complimentary as possible the dude has a little iverson in him yeah now let's talk about the loss to the fucking raptors uh yeah 93 to 88 that was horrible uh yeah that was absolutely fucking embarrassing uh james harden basically just got shut down over the final two and a half uh the raptors had 20 offensive rebounds the sixers made four baskets that had seven turnovers in the fourth quarter like that's the streakiness joel joel and bead went hang on one second joel bead went six or 20 from the floor. James Harden went five of 12. Like, and Bede's going to have an off night, but like Tobias Harris going two of nine. Like when two of these dudes have an off night

and the bench gets a combined 14 points, like that's not good. DeAndre Jordan sucks ass. Oh yeah, he's completely washed. He's washed. And I kind of didn't buy into the DeAndre is washed type. Yeah, no. I was kind of hoping he wasn't washed.

But yeah, no, he. Now, that said, against the Mavericks, Embiid and Embiid and Harden looks good together. So there's a lot of up and downs with this team. And that's kind of scary. Yeah. I mean, and if you look at like Harden's stats, it's not that much different from like his previous years. Right.

Like he kind of just is consistently streaky. Yeah, we knew that. He's not scoring as many points total that he used to, but I mean, nothing stands out that this year is somehow like an aberration. Right. No, the problem is like, is this dude going to show up in the playoffs or not?

Yeah. So, I mean, I don't know. I'm starting to think that he might not be the last piece of the puzzle to get us into that third round right that's that's my concern too it's like is this guy enough to get them you know yeah into the like and especially we're really feeling the loss of drummond and really feeling the loss of seth curry yep and i think I think if you had someone like Harden with those guys...

Oh, the scene would be fucking... Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean, again, maybe we'll see what happens in the offseason. I guess we have to see what happens this season first. Right. But with the bank contract gone, that helps a bit too.

But you don't have all this money tied up in a guy who's not playing. Right. So we can spend some money and get some decent guys, another shooter, another backup center, and then another bench guy or two. Because, yeah, George is the six man, I guess. Right. And he's your best six man like he's your best bench guy yep it's right yeah so it's a little scary yeah it's it's it's i don't know he you know people also i think we talked about this last week, you're hearing criticisms of Doc and you got to be careful with how the criticisms are coming across

and stuff like that. Because they love to criticize black coaches in Philadelphia. Oh, they sure do, bud. But yeah, people are talking about him making some questionable decisions and stuff like that. I know a little bit of basketball strategy i'm not like super into it so he has made some some some questions or some decisions that have certainly been sort of you know uh eyebrow raising but like all the best coaches in the world do that too like nick nurse calling a timeout during the 2018 finals, I want to say, with Toronto enabled Golden State to steal a game.

And in the post-game press conference, Kevin Durant was like, or Draymond Green or one of them was like, yeah, that's why we won because Nick Nurse called a timeout. Yeah. I mean, I guess we'll see. But every time I see the criticism, I'm like, well, I don't know why we got rid of Brett Brown. It's like, yeah, you do.

Yeah, you do. Yeah, you fucking do. You know why. And so, yeah. So we're playing the Lakers. And I think the Clippers. It's like a West Coast trip. Yeah.

We should be winning both those games. We should be. No, we're playing. i think you might be right actually we got yeah uh until we record again assuming we record on wednesday the 30th we'll have la the lakers the clippers the suns which is gonna be a scary game and the bucks so i'll be two and two yeah we finish out with detroit charlotte cleveland indiana toronto indiana again and then uh last game last home game is uh last game of the season is a home game it's sunday april 10th versus the pistons yeah so that should be i mean, the scariest two are

Suns and Bucks. Yeah. So, yeah, I mean, that'll be interesting to see. Obviously, Sixers are playoff lock at this point. Yeah. As it stands right now, they would play the

Cleveland Cavaliers, who are not a bad team. No, but we've been pretty good against them this year. So I think that would not be a bad matchup. I think we're definitely getting out of the first round this year. Getting out of the second round, that's going to be... Who knows? Because it depends on who it's against.

Because I don't know if we're beating the bucks or the sons yeah well uh we'll have to be i mean we're gonna have to be a good team and that's just inevitable so yeah we'll see yeah um but i will take i will take you know playing the sons in the nba finals i'll take just getting there right you know right exactly no that's i think that's that's exactly how to look at it. Yeah. Yeah, I'll take third round at this point. That's what we need.

So, yeah. Anything else on the Sixers, or are we good for... No, we're good. Yeah, so we got some football. Oh, I did want to say one more thing is like doc one of the things i think that's worth sort of critiquing doc about is like he he trusts his vets almost too much which like in terms of keeping a team cohesive i think is not a bad move but like obviously deandre jordan is washed like you gotta give these kids some minutes yeah get like uh what's his name in there um

paul yeah b-ball paul yeah get him in there yeah get get some get some of the young guys get him some reps basically yeah that's how they get better yeah uh that's how i'm actually getting better he's got joe gerardi syndrome where he trusts he trusts a guy who was good four years ago. No. Oh, so football. Football. So I have been sort of out of the loop a bit since basically this whole week for reasons. So I see you have a comment. Sirianni signed the statistically worst wide receiver in the league yeah zach pascal oh geez what's uh what's the point well i guess

technically how he signed him and how he got his contract renewed yeah if you i forget where i saw a tweet which is what i'm referencing but like if you look at his stats, he's not very good. That sucks. So Fletcher Cox being back, they cut him and then re-signed him. Dude, I fucking hate NFL contracts. I know, dude. Dude, it fucking sucks. They did that with Boston Scott, too.

I think they non-tendered Boston Scott. But, like, the fact that you could just cut a guy and there's no penalty to that sucks. The cap is not real in the NFL. Because you could just cut people because there's almost no guaranteed money unless you specifically

negotiate as guaranteed. Like, it fucking sucks, dude. Like, blow ball on the guy for his like i mean i get it guy who's been loyal and all that stuff yeah and and and the howie is pretty loyal the eagles overall pretty loyal to these guys you know fletcher cox i mean didn't have a great season last year you know he's getting old so um we'll see i think i do we mention that kelsey's coming back on the pod i'm not sure uh yeah i think we did yeah uh but yeah it's like not if we didn't re-sign bosses scott i was gonna be super fucking mad because that that kid is amazing yeah exactly he fucking rocks the five foot six king um so uh yeah um and you you wanted to talk about some other he's not statistically the worst

he's the 305th wide receiver of 373 okay well i mean i guess it's like uh what do you call the last ranked guy in med school doctor yeah so cool at least he's not the worst. Philadelphia, not the worst. Not the worst. He's not. There's some stuff where he's very, very, very bad on. But that's fine. Who cares? I mean, again, it's the NFL. So, you know, he blinks the wrong way.

They'll just cut him. Exactly. And then he probably has to pay the money back. I hate the fucking NFL. I hate the sport. Yeah yeah why do we like it so much god damn it because we're idiots yeah because we're dumb idiots the podcast that fights itself because we're idiots because we're idiots and i have nothing further to add to that uh what else did i have to say? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, I want to trade stuff. Talk about. So the Dolphins traded for Tyreek Hill, who never got punished for. I've beaten the shit out of his kid. Yeah, beating the shit out of his kid.

Like I've said before, people deserve second chances, but I don't think they need to necessarily be in professional football. Yeah, no, he genuinely really fucked up his kid he's an evil dude did he dislocate his arm or something like that yes yeah like we we often think when you hear of like domestic violence incidents with sports you almost always think of like a like it's a part i guess a partner yeah like like dude that dude and that's bad too like i'm not right it's all equivalent there's no good domestic right i know yeah i'm not equivocating anything here it's all bad but god damn man like dude that's your kid like what exactly like like and the nfl knew and the nfl knew and just decided to sit on it they

don't care i mean because man throw man run fast ran run fast yeah uh he uh i just love personal life legal issues domestic assault conviction child abuse investigation great i mean i and you say this like he probably was like beat that had the shit beat out and when he was a kid like that's how all this stuff happens i mean that's like what i see every day the kids i know you know they're all mostly fucked up because of this shit. Right. But that doesn't excuse doing it. You have to go get help for it. Right. And Andy Reid does like to take on these project guys. Yeah.

I sort of want to say about Andy Reid, and I think it's ultimately noble, but it doesn't mean I love it. Andy Reid will take a chance on basically anybody. Yeah. A meaningful chance. And he did that when he was coaching the birds, too. Did it with his own kids. Did it with his own kids. It's not necessarily up to me to decide the morality of that.

I'm certainly not especially comfortable with it but like i know that andy reed is taking chances on guys that maybe haven't always like had the best lives and and he takes meaningful chances on these guys yeah you know and that that is noble but it doesn't mean i fucking like it um right yeah you don't have to root for it and like right you know we were talking about we said several times like i'm not rooting for the Birds if Deshaun Watson was on this team. Right, right. And thank God that's Cleveland's problem now. Yeah.

Holy shit. I wanted to say specifically, as a fan of professional sports and as an idiot who watches these things, when an owner has to release a statement that said we did our due diligence on this guy. Yeah. has to release a statement that said we did our due diligence on this guy yeah and then the the attorney representing the women uh that deshaun watson is accused of assaulting uh say uh well we weren't consulted that means no one was fucking consulted oh of course not no they know they knew who their guy was they wanted they don't care and it's up to you to decide you know i whether or not you believe these teams deserve your money like you know, whether or not you believe these teams deserve your money. Like, you know, whether or not you believe that these teams that if that's a choice you're comfortable making, like, yeah, whether or not you want to let your kids play these sports as two people who both played football.

Like, yes. Don't let your kids play football. Don't let your kids play football. Don't. Yeah. Genuinely don't. No. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Yeah. Don't let your kids play football. Don't. Yeah. Genuinely don't. No. CTE factor. Yeah, exactly.

Exactly. Yeah. So the Browns got their guy. I am going on record to say that I hope he is turned into Chunky Marinara. I hope he gets clownied. I hope he gets clownied. Yeah. Yeah.

It's like the only person that can destroy a bad guy is another bad guy. Yeah, exactly. Although Clowny is on the Browns, at least for now. So hoping for some friendly fire, I guess. And, and Baker Mayfield kind of, that was the whole thing. He's like, I want to trade in like 10 minutes later that Browns are like, no publicly. Right. Yeah.

Cause he wants out too. And it's like, um, like, I don't know. There's like a, I kind of like the guy a bit. I like Baker Mayfield. Yeah. He doesn't seem like a horrible person or anything. He's probably a shithead. Probably.

I mean. He got a DUI in college. Oh, that's right. He did. I do remember there was something about him that was that, you know, it's got to suck, though. This is like out of nowhere. It's like, yeah, we're replacing you with Deshaun Watson. Welcome to be back up.

Yeah, I like Baker. I think given a chance, given a good coach and a chance to succeed, I think Baker can be special. He's such a fucking dweeb, too. Oh, he's a giant dork. Yeah. I will say about that, I truly like the advertisements where the conceit is that he has to live

in the brown stadium yeah although the thing that bothers me because i'll see a good commercial funny commercial i'm like imagine that creativity if it wasn't forced to be a fucking ad yeah exactly you know that's that's what bothers me um but yeah that sucks it fucking sucks um the sean watson like like oh so is he legal invest did it decline the prosecutor charge him is that what happened yeah the grand jury ruled not to indict yeah why do we still have grand juries like still like it's a very outdated like it's a comp in every other common law nation some lawyer can tell me i'm fucking wrong but i'm fairly sure every other common law nation has got rid of them but i i wouldn't be able to say that i don't know yeah like i've heard that

you know the saying is like a grand jury would indict a sandwich right so how the fuck did was he not indicted right yeah so Yeah. So just press charges. I don't know. I don't know how the fuck it works. It's Texas, too. So, I mean. Right. Well, enjoy your new quarterback.

Here's hoping he gets turned into pasta sauce. Yeah. There goes any sort of like lovable Rust Belt solidarity. Yeah. I have. Go Bengals. Yeah. Yeah.

Go Bengals. Paul Brown's true love. Yeah. Yeah. Bengals. Paul Brown's true love. Yeah. He left you guys. And actually, you're not even the real Cleveland Browns. Okay. No, that's the Ravens, actually. Yep.

So critical support for the Ravens, who've never had a player that's ever been suspect of anything. No, no. He was acquitted. He was acquitted. Hey, if you make it to court and you're acquitted, you know what? That's that's fine. And like I, you know what? I'm not going to say I'll tell you that thought off air.

Oh, OK. Oh, yeah. Well, we do have a very just just to finish off football here. I'll just play our an old clip that some listeners might miss. CTE! CTE! Thank you. CTE! CTE! Yes.

Yep. So, speaking of CTE, what other sport also has a lot of physical contact? Is it hockey? Yeah, it might be hockey. Drew traded for nothing. Yeah, he's on the Panthers. Yeah, a whole be hockey. Drew traded for nothing. Yeah, he's on the Panthers. Yeah, a whole bunch of dudes got traded for nothing.

It was like a third round pick eight years from now. Yeah. A can of beans. Yeah. I don't know that the Flyers got a single player in return. And if they did, sorry. They found a T-shirt that they printed for if the Phillies won the 2009 World Series. So they sent one of those up.

What else do they got down there? They sent some hanging chads. Florida. Some Mickey Mouse ears. Yeah. Yeah. But they're the knockoff ones. Oh, God.

Oh, fuck Disney. And anyone who likes to go there. I'll tell her. Everyone's dead on the flyers. Did they trade anyone else? Yeah, they traded three people. I can't remember the other two. How do you not get anything back for Drew?

Is it just because he's old? Yeah, he's old, but he was the only one keeping them afloat. At least they got him his thousand win on the Flyers. Yeah, so this is the second sell-off they've had in two years. Justin Braun in exchange for 2023 third rounder. And Derek Brassard to the Oilers for 2023 fourth rounder. Wow, getting all the high picks there. Man, they don't have anything to trade.

No, this sucks, dude. I mean, I guess I... So the Flyers got back owen tippett a 2020 he was a winger a 2024 conditional first rounder and a 2023 third rounder we also traded connor bunneman and german rubstaff while sending a 2024 fifth rounder and retaining 50% of Drew's contract. Oh, nice. That is stupid. Did you say Gunnar? It's what I say.

I don't know. I'm trying to figure out what ethnicity it was. Connor Bunneman and German Rube stuff. Maybe German room stuff. Rube stuff. Yeah. I don't know. Maybe he'll tell us how to pour beer incorrectly

it's the city americans there is a funny video though out there of uh they had the first tap at oktoberfest and they had the guy i forget which base this i don't know if it's ramstein or if it's a different one and they invited like the the base commander to come over and tap the first tap for Oktoberfest. And he hit it and just wouldn't go in. Right. I was like, oh, that's very funny. Yeah, go Bruins. Yeah, no.

Yes, go Bruins. The league just collapsed. Go Bruins. The league. Go Bruins. Go, not NHL. Go Bruins. just to collapse the league go not nhl uh when you get when is that asmr coming out uh i'll have to work on that uh no one gives a shit about the union so let's move on to the mailbag oh no you're answering those you're answering those messages that we're gonna to get. All right. So we have a meaty, girthy mailbag.

So this is from self-appointed tax caucus? Question mark. I don't know what that means. So this is the same person that asked the question about... I don't know. They're not the same person. I don't know. I have to double check.

I'll edit that out. They were talking about petty moments in sports. Yeah one of them was jose tabata breaking up sure it's just perfect game with two outs two strikes at the top of the ninth oh yeah yeah that's good anytime you bunt to break up a perfect game or no hitter is a good petty moment exactly no the pitchers don't deserve to be happy especially scherzer because scherzer is fucking insane. Yeah. Insane wild eyes. Like last year when they, Girardi told so those who don't know in baseball

now they have like this like foreign substances rule where the coach can have, you know, your hat and shit inspected and he just started so Girardi had him like, go check his shit. And Scherzer's a phenomenal pitcher and they're like, go check his shit. Go see what he's a phenomenal pitcher. And they're like, go check his shit. See what he's got on him.

And Scherzer just starts stripping. Yes. I'm going to take this off. You want to take my jackstrap off too? Yeah. He's fucking nuts. And I think Girardi was just trying to fuck with him, honestly, because Scherzer's a great pitcher.

I mean, yeah, no, he is a terrific pitcher. And I do appreciate anyone who's just like clearly a sociopath. Yeah, the best pitchers are like that. I like Jimmy Butler a lot. Yes. Like Jimmy Butler is like if he didn't play professional basketball, he'd be a serial killer. One of my favorite baseball stories is Bob Gibson,

who is a kind of intense dude like that. If you dug in your cleats, he'd just bean you. And he was, what you call it? What's the youth boxing award? It's not gold glove. Couldn't tell you. Yeah, yeah. He was like a trained boxer, so if you went in charge Bob Gibson for beating you, he would just beat the shit out of you. Nice. Because he was

like an amateur boxer growing up. So, yes. There's a little mention there. Steel signing Mitch Trubisky. Apparently, Pittsburgh Sports Radio is mad they didn't get Winston or Sean Watson. Enjoy your kitty kisser, Trubisky. I like Mitch Trubisky. Apparently Pittsburgh Sports Radio is mad they didn't get Winston or Sean Watson. Enjoy your kitty kisser, Trubisky.

I like Mitch Trubisky. I like him too. I have a big soft spot for the Bears as a team for some fucking reason. Because they're lovable losers and they haven't been 11 since 85. Yeah. And

I kind of had a little you know sort of you know sure it just sounds very weird i had to think for him because of that i don't know how else to put it because i'm fucking tired okay so the question here is uh have you when when have you felt your team has gone from unlikable to most likable outside your city or vice versa? Okay. So the Eagles siding Vic. Yeah, that's the least. Let's see. The Sox winning it. Oh, yeah the the Sox

winning it oh yeah the Sox winning it made them go from likable to unlikable in about a second because they were they were the victors then then they won what four world series

in 14 years yeah they had a run yeah yeah yeah go to hell Tom Then they won, what, four World Series in 14 years? Yeah, they had a run. Yeah. Yeah. Go to hell, Tom. Let's see. The Astros pissed away a lot of goodwill real fucking quick. Yes, the Trash-tros. Fuck those guys. Fuck Man Redford.

Gratefully. They should have taken the fucking trophy. It's an embarrassment that they didn't. Yeah, and saying that it's just a piece of metal. No, it's not taken the fucking trophy. It's an embarrassment that they didn't. Yeah, and saying that it's just a piece of metal. Jesus Christ, you fucking asshole. Why is the game dying? Well, I might have an idea.

Yeah, there you go. Baseball's not dying, god damn it. I know. The Nats? I've always kind of hated the Nats, though. Oh, yes, because Montreal deserves a team. Also, fuck DC. Honestly. And I have a soft spot in my heart for the

Orioles that I've talked about. Oh, yeah. I have a couple of American League teams I've liked. You know what? Actually, recently the one that really did it for me personally was Rodgers. Rodgers COVID I've liked. You know what? Actually, recently, the one that really did it for me personally was Rogers COVID whirlwind bullshit nonsense fiesta. Oh, that's a good one.

That's a good one. I got to think of like, I think the Eagles winning the Super Bowl. People already hate the Eagles. Yeah. So Philly, Philly, Philly, and then just the insanity of the the night that they won and the you know the Jason Kelsey's you know um no one likes us we don't care like that that that has I mean that just cements it like people just don't fucking like the eagles or eagles fans and i don't think that's i guess it hasn't gone from unlikable to likable or vice versa like people just fucking hate them but like

it was like rubbing it in right um i you know phillies again don't have like philly is we live in a weird area because we're like in the megalopolis. Right. But we're a big market. So we have this like real big hyper-local market, but it doesn't extend very far. Like you start seeing Steelers signs, you know, Jesus Christ. Lancaster County. Not even then. Even Lehigh Valley you start seeing some Steelers stuff. So I can't think of like a Philly team,

like really having a big, big love outside the city. Maybe that's just my lack of perspective. I mean, I think the, I'll give you some perspective actually. When I was a kid growing up in central Pennsylvania, so your County,

you were either a Steelers fan or a ravens fan and like you weren't an eagles family there were very few if any eagles fans um that's probably changed since they've been a bit better uh yeah i mean i i think in terms of like being likable like uh there was a bit where the yankees were kind of fun a few years ago but i still didn't like them i was just like oh they're fun i i have a you know we talked about this like i kind of grew up with a lot of Yankees fans around me so I kind of had a little bit but they were they were not like likable guys

like Derek Jeter Alex Rodriguez no what about the I feel like the Cubs winning it yeah not necessarily mean I'm unlikable but like exposed a lot of the bullshit that the Ricketts family was doing.

Yeah. Oh, the Dodgers finally winning it made me outright hate them. Oh, yeah. The Dodgers, they're such a well-run organization, too. Them signing Scherzer probably didn't help. Yeah. Or not Scherzer, fucking Trevor Bauer. Yeah.

Oh, God, I forgot to sign him. Yeah, he's still suspended. So I don't know what's going on. Yeah, fuck that guy. Yeah, so I don't know. I don't know if the 2008, when Phillies had their run, where they loved outside the city. Not in New York, I'll tell you that.

Yeah. Chase Utley, Mets killer. You know. city um not in new york i'll tell you that yeah uh chase udley meds killer you know um uh i don't know uh so apparently we fucked up with uh zinc when we talked about zinc i saw the zinc coffins apparently yeah so the i didn't know the soviet afghan war the russian soldiers were sent home in zinc coffins yeah listen. Listen to the lions led by donkey Soviet Afghan war series or more. Do you cover the ghost story? That's not me. That's before my time.

Oh, okay. That's probably why I didn't listen to it. No, I listened to them before. Actually, I listened to them before I ever listened to you guys. Um,

but, uh, shit, there's a great look up like the Soviet Afghan, like ghost story. I forget what the name of the post is, but there's some really, up like the soviet afghan like ghost story i forget what the name of the post is but there's some really i love good good like history hauntings like where it's some weird fucked up ghost right like you know with the kind where it's like oh something bad happened here and you had no idea like i uh i accidentally ran into when i was in rome

the first time i was there as a student i just ran into a site of a fucking massacre in a cave oh wow uh and yeah because the nazis did a reprisal and they just like shoved a bunch of people in a cave and shot them and uh i was like oh this isn't the appian way this is oh i can read enough italian to know what this means fucking nazis and uh yeah so but uh there's like like any places like that where they have that there's like this weird i think you know i guess if some people can be obsessed with serial killers um some of us can be obsessed with ghost stories that involve spooky massacres. Sure. And if you're a fan of genocide, listen to Lions Led by Donkeys.

Yeah, please. Yeah. So we have two Patreon messages. The first is the shorter one from Brady. So I started listening to Tipping Pitches after they were on your show despite never watching or caring about baseball and got real into it. Cool. Go listen to those guys.

They rock. However, listening to them describe the labor practices of baseball, especially the minor leagues, was some of the most horrifying shit I've ever heard. My question is, which professional sport do you think is the worst labor practices? NFL. Yeah, I literally uh responded messages like it's nfl but we'll talk about it and which one has the least bad can't bring myself to say best

labor practices nfl is the worst nfl is the worst nba is probably the best nba is probably the best uh or at least bad least bad but uh yeah i mean they've still done some pretty fucked up stuff yeah um they and yeah i think i think the nba union definitely keep you know there's a lot of weird exceptions to things that they've carved out over time right um they and the and theB, at least they have guaranteed contracts. Right. So that's good. MLB, I mean, the MLB in the pros, once you reach the majors, it's actually not horrible. Right. But you have to grind a long time.

You have to grind there. And NFL is bad in the sense that, yeah, you might have a college degree by the time you get into the NFL. But again, you have been CTE'd and you can get cut. You can be in the NFL and make absolutely nothing in your entire career. Right. You can make a couple thousand. Right. in your entire career right like like you could make a like a like a couple thousand right you know uh especially like guys they run through like offensive linemen right and all that and

yeah so yeah so the nfl is definitely the worst i would say i don't know too much about nhl i know you've in the past you've said they're not that great either they're not good yeah Yeah. But no, it's I think the NFL is so heinous. Absolutely. I'd say they're the worst overall. Yeah. So I promised this last week to Sam, who wrote us an essay. And I'm not going to read the whole essay. I'm going to bounce through.

So it's all right. And so Sam says, yay, Liam. And yay, Tom. wrote us an essay. I'm not going to read the whole essay. I'm going to bounce through. It's all right. Sam says, yay, Liam and yay, Tom. Nice. My first yay. They're from Dallas. Sorry. Yeah, fuck the Cowboys. Oh, I see

your podcast and WTYP have taught me to respect your noble city and its chaotic energy and effective public transit yeah it's it's septa it's just the septa uh i was on a reddit debate where i said uh people were saying septa sucks and i said oh it doesn't suck but a lot of people who come into the city who are transplants from other places to them it is amazing right um and it is and it is good in the sense that it is a somewhat functioning public transit system right exactly uh the fact that you should get there for anywhere for 225 with the septa budget is a goddamn miracle yeah and all the people who run it live in the suburbs and are republicans

uh so uh dallas dallas named after a Philadelphian, by the way. I don't know if you knew that. I said I thought it was named after George Dallas. Dallas. Whoever it was, was named after a guy from Philly. Oh, George Mifflin Dallas. Yeah, Mifflin. Mifflin family.

Yeah. Yeah, you owe us, you motherfuckers. Yeah. So Dallas sucks as is obligatory. It is debated, apparently, whether or not it's named for him. You know what? We're claiming it.

It is. Fuck you. You're on a history podcast, and I have a degree in history. So I think that's good enough. It's ours. Give it to us. Listen, I've held a paper that had John Adams signature on it in my hands. That's enough authority you need. Okay.

Yeah. Fair enough. Yeah. That was kind of cool. So he says that I am privately okay with the Eagles winning as long as it doesn't interfere with the Cowboys. Every time the Eagles as long as it doesn't interfere with the Cowboys. Every time the Eagles aren't doing well, it interferes with the Cowboys. So just come out.

Just admit it. You're an Eagles fan, and that's okay. So, all right, this next part of the question has already been answered. What do you think about Mavs Sixers? Mavs lost. That sucks. Rambling about Dallas teams. Here we go.

I imagine most of the next episode will Tom be talking to baseball. You were correct. Here we go. Cowboys really fucked it up by not winning it all past season. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry.

Wow. Yeah, the Cowboys are interesting because Jerry Jones is willing to spend money. Yeah. It's interesting. Yeah, the watch takes the stadium, have a hole in the roof so God can watch his favorite team play football. I don't want to be on this podcast anymore. Oh, I haven't done my whole Whitman sampler of Southern accents that I can do not that good at. I could do the Georgia Peach next. Stop it.

When I was in Boston, the tour group, we had a bunch of ladies from Atlanta, but they really weren't from Atlanta. They were from the suburbs. And my wife was like, don't do it. Don't do it. I know you want to. I was like, I'm really going to do the voice. Don't do it. Let me do the voice. All right. I get why everyone hates them.

If I wasn't for here, I'd hate it too. This does sound like a guy who's just looking for an excuse to become an Eagles fan. Yeah, do it. Welcome. We hate Jerry Jones. fuck the cowboys um dallas mavericks i don't have i don't have any feelings about the mavericks uh i don't like luka donchic very much no yeah uh well luka donchic has the which i hate not not nothing from, but I hate the great white hope bullshit that gets anytime there's a good white player.

And just like, come on, man. Just like, stop. He's not even from this country. He wants some like hometown boy to be doing well. Like, come on, man. Nothing against him. Like, nothing against him personally. Like, just stop.

Yeah. That's what that was. so fuck that shit um doesn't uh who's who's is that mark cuban and writes owns that team yep yeah so uh also you have a billionaire owner who pretends he's a good guy but he's not right um so he went to pit uh i'm not hailing to to their h2p baby yeah um we'll be corrected on that uh dallas stars again hockey so um i don't really have anything to say about that because i don't follow hockey that well but uh i don't know if you have anything to say fuck the stars yeah uh yeah sure fuck dallas in all of its things texas fucking rangers uh boy i'm gonna spend 200 million dollars to not lose 100 games yeah uh they got marcus semien and cory seager uh cool

this is fucking texas rangers like the word like this. Fuck that. I've never liked that team. Well, I mean, because because this is something that if you were a zoomer, you might not understand this as much. Anything that involves George W.

Bush, I will have nothing but lifelong hatred for. And he was part owner of that team. And yes, he was. Yeah. and uh i'm not going to share share too many opinions because uh i saw a lot of people get mad at somebody who said that who was who all right fuck i gotta say uh bush was worse than trump by the way guys just so you know uh yeah and he set the stage for all the shitty shit that trump did he would have been enabled if if bush wasn't there they both suck i'm not saying one's good

i'm saying they both sucked ass they were horrible uh but trump was i'll buy that but because because because uh trump wasn't competent in the same way that pence is worse than pence would have been far worse than trump right oh yeah oh yeah because he believes every fucking thing he says. Yes. Yeah, yeah. So Bush was awful. Fuck the Rangers. Spencer Howard, I hope you do okay. You don't deserve it.

So the next is soccer. I don't care about soccer. FC Dallas. At least they have a reasonable name. Football Club Dallas? Sure. Why the hell not? Big banner out on a building downtown near our work proclaiming a new era for the team. Cool. Alright. Yeah.

I don't know any soccer guys other than, what's his name? Was it Salah? Just because I married into an Egyptian family. Yeah. So I know him. Yeah.

I know that guy. Mo Salah. He's really good. Yeah. He's very good. Yeah. There's a great meme of a bunch of English kids bowing to him. And it's just Nasser's face in the background smiling.

So yeah. My wife explained my politics to my father-in-law. She's like, yeah, so he's – Tom's kind of a socialist. And he's like, oh, yeah, yeah. She's like, I kind of like Nassar. He's like, oh, cool. Because he's still a national hero there.

All right, cool. We got it. I'm not getting beaten up by my father-in-law today. Yeah, exactly. So he says. I love when I let my politics slip around my girlfriend's family. And I'm just like, oh, no. Oh, are you sort of like low key about it?

Yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm just sometimes I say shit and I'm just like, oh right, you weren't ready for that conversation. Yeah. I, uh,

as a teacher, that's particularly tough. I bet. I, uh, have to be very careful, but every once in a while, like it'd be like,

oh, well, you know, I know, you know, I teach English, but you know, helping a kid with like a social studies paper on the civil war and i'm like yeah so uh basically everyone's economic conditions drives what they do and so the slave

owners didn't want to lose their slaves so that's why slavery was the cause of civil war well i thought it was states no civil war no it wasn't. No, no slavery. It was slavery. States' rights. States' rights to own slaves. Yeah, exactly. Get the fuck out of here. Anyway, so to wrap up the email here, they do say they love the podcast,
