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 it is to come to Philadelphia and stand here and dodge an ice ball. We, the Dallas Cowboys, have assassinated John Cooney. And we're live. I feel like it's been a fucking week in sports that just exists to piss me off. The Phillies choking

uh fucking deon sanders got mad so deon sanders is now the coach at the university of colorado and he got mad uh for his players not jumping into fight which like that's absolutely that's just so stupid like that's just so funny it's funny but like it's like dude you're a training camp like relax relax fucking relax dude also you're the university of colorado yeah i i guess it's a bit of like an old school attitude like yeah if if one fights we all fight but it's like within your team right they weren't doing like a practice with another squad. No, it's like within your team. It's like, okay, well.

Yeah. I. What does that even mean? I don't know. You know? Maybe you should be jumping in there to stop it. You don't want like your quarterback getting knocked out or something like that. Right.

Exactly. But like, what are you doing dude yeah this has been like one of those weeks where just so much dumb shit happens um i mean the last since we last recorded like the phillies are just the phillies won yesterday the 16th but they've been choking down shit yeah yeah three in a row i just i've just been pissed off the hardened thing pissed me off yeah okay we'll get into that i mean there's a lot there's a lot of dumb there's a lot that just made me angry like yeah and like you had been texting me and like i'm starting to feel bad that i've gotten you into baseball yeah it's like it's like fuck you like i have nothing like now i'm just mad now you can be

mad year round yeah uh which is good because i am yeah oh it fuels you right yeah it does it feels like i'm healing nature's healing we're finally getting back to the way things should be liam being mad is you know blood pressure 200 over 100 at all times all times dude yeah brutal it's it's the only way you can live actually if you're if your blood pressure dropped to normal it would be it would kill you um yeah yeah uh i don't know i it's like i i've i've had like a relatively decent week, so. Fuck you. My rant's like, it's humid out. It's a little muggy lately. I can't wait for fall.

I'm a fat boy i i can take no more of this i i can tolerate heat pretty well for a guy my size um and and i don't as long as like as long as it's like there's some breeze and it's not too humid i'm not like in the

sun like it's like we were sitting out we had like a family reunion thing and i it was like you know like upper 80s humid but you know there was a nice breeze and we were outside and the sun went down and we were all sitting outside it was nice i mean i was i had to take a shower after i got home but uh yeah no dude i'm ready for fall like my wife and i were talking this morning we're like we gotta we gotta i want to plan this fall out like i want to be i want to be as basic as possible oh yeah dude i am so basic like i heard that they're already the like i went to the beer store last week octoberfest is out yes now so first the pumpkins are out so so there's two ways that you can approach this the first way is you can go well it's not october so the octoberfest shouldn't be out well first off october fest

is the last week of september so but whatever um you know it's too early to have pumpkin beer no it's not shut up the only argument or the other other thing you could do is like october fest like meritons or the actual fest beer are some of the most delicious and drinkable beer styles in the world and i will i'll drink that any time of year i'll drink like a von stefan fest beer anytime oh hell yeah dude yeah it's like a pale six percent like hyper malty lager that's but like dry delicious yeah delicious i i get that with like the meritons like the the the you guys are listening to craft beer talk um sorry we're gonna talk about our favorite brewskis

I got to get the... I got to DM Alice and get what software she uses for the... We could do a lot with the radio voice and with the Echo. That makes it sound antisemitic, but that's okay. Uh, every time you talk, I'm just going to, there's a batch process for Liam.

It's just going to have audio echoes the entire time. Let's just all parentheses. Um, uh, uh, next one's not so funny. Oh yeah. You want to talk about this shit with,

uh, Wanda Franco is might be a, do we, do you want to talk about who Wander Franco is and why it's big deal that he's a pedophile allegedly allegedly yeah he's a pedophile we don't we don't have to do that he's a pedophile yeah so Wander Franco is a short stop well I mean we could might be able to put was a short stop for the Tempe Rays. He was having a insanely good season.

He was, if you use wins above replacements as a statistic, he was second to Shohei Otani so far this year. He, a couple of days ago, they were getting ready, they were like packing up the clubhouse to get onto the plane. And they told him, you're not getting on the plane and you're not playing for a while and it has since come out there has been like drips and drabs like last from last we last recorded but now it seems like things like started picking up steam that basically there's um accusations against him in the dominican republic that he sought out underage girls for,

well, you know, and you can guess. Yeah. For sex. And it's it's likely that his career is over. Right. The MLB reportedly sent their own investigation team down there as well uh just just to to like find the veracity i guess which i don't know if that's something that they have picked up since the bauer thing happened i had yeah i had never heard of them doing that uh i know that mlb wants to have a good relation with dominica republic because their uh baseball colony there relies on that government not really looking too deep into right the shit that goes on there but um uh franco's 22 i believe he's married he has a kid already um he's when we talk about like young guys getting money um he's kind of an example of that he had 650 grand worth of jewelry stolen out of his rolls royce um i don't know why

you would keep that much jewelry in your rolls royce um just seems like he's a little right irresponsible he's been benched before for his uh behavior yes um towards the other players in the clubhouse like for not being a good team it was i think exactly what they said yeah um i i mean he's a young guy he's extremely talented um not anymore yeah we we always want to support you know the players and you know hey look you're 22 you come out of this money you're going to make dumb decisions but that's outside of these accusations like deliberately seeking out what the accusations are underage girls um the it's not just him that's in this looks like looks like the woman like the parents of one of the girls um it is girls because they're they're they're children um might have been pimping them out um

well i'm gonna vomit yeah it's really really really disgusting and um i i um actually give me one second sure uh we're gonna trigger warning for sexual abuse anyway so yeah frank it's it's a uh it's really fucked up um and he's gonna i don't believe did they put him on the restricted list already or whatever the the uh the the the not i don't i forget what it's called but yes yeah he's on the restricted list now which means you're he's not getting paid or anything like that um the restricted list yeah if he if it's like unfounded and he comes off of it he could get his back pay and all that but he ain't coming back if this is what it is he's done his career is over um what what could

have been a hall of Fame caliber career, because he definitely had the talent. When he was scouted, he was like an 80 out of 80 prospect. He was scouted with 80 is the max overall potential. Yeah, make that make sense. Yeah, he was like a top prospect for years. He flew through the system. It's disgusting, and it's a shame. a shame right it's disgusting and there's no you know i i just it pisses me off to no end that his wikipedia that he has the three crosses

tattooed on his neck and he's got crosses for eye black right like i get it i mean he's 22 but like that's not that i'm not doing fucking obviously pedophilia apology i'm just no no absolutely not if you're if you if if i was his age and a baseball player like i could not imagine like well when i'm not i don't have those proclivities um right you're not a pedophile thank god um but you literally could have your pick of any i mean you're just like like like really you got a lot of swag you're this like young hot shot baseball player who's got a ton of money you have the whatever choice you want like you could date almost whomever like you know i mean like you could have like you could be like a james harden and just party and hang out and have you know all the dalliance right exactly if you want to be like

a like a serial like dater and uh like and you're ethical about it like whatever like if you want to have that lifestyle go ahead you could have that but instead you he chose to get married and then cheat on his wife with children. Corinne is not abreast of the, uh, who is a pedophile. Oh, that's not a text I wanted to send. I'll tell you that. Oh yeah.

No. Yeah. It's, it's, um, it's, it's disgusting. And,

and I do appreciate that major league baseball, like got it together real fucking quick at least. Yeah. I, I, I say, I hope, I hope that that shows that they're trying like got it together real fucking quick at least yeah i i say i hope i i hope that that shows that they're trying to take it after the trevor bauer thing right yeah right right you know but then you know because you still have guys you have like you know what was it domingo herman who were the no-hitter for the yankees and yeah and he beat the shit out of his girlfriend right yeah like they still have problems, I think, with domestic assault, domestic abuse. But I don't think there's anyone who on their team wouldn't want to play with the guy.

I mean, that's the stuff you get killed in prison for. Right, right, right. It's this kind of stuff. And yeah, it's a shame. It's disgusting. Vomit-inducing. Yeah. It sucks. It's horrible for the victims. yeah it's uh it's it's a shame it's a vomit inducing yeah um it's it sucks it's it's horrible for the for the victims it's horrible for you know fans of tampa bay who you know you

have this guy and now suddenly you know it must have been like like being a pirates fan when they had what's his name the the closer who who's um now doing time at uh what's the security out west oh fuck yeah he's in he's in state penitentiary out by pittsburgh i know exactly who you're talking about uh felipe vasquez yeah yeah he uh it's yeah it's you can look it up yourself i don't want to talk about it it's actually pretty pretty similar although younger gruesome yeah absolutely gruesome um so yeah i mean we'll see what happens um the invest it seems to be one of these cases where so much is coming out at once that there's a lot of evidence uh against him right so um yeah that's fucked up yeah fucked up is putting it mildly uh it's horrific yeah and um yeah hopefully the the

victims could be made whole as much as possible right and uh wonder franco uh is, I don't know, you'll have to bleep this. Yeah, yeah. I'm not a death penalty guy usually, but anything with kids, if that's proved. Yeah, I'm not. I'll look the other way when you beat Wander Franco to death with a tire iron. If he goes to jail and he gets shanked,

I'm not going to... We said the same thing about Larry Nassar. Right, exactly. I'm not going to shed a single... No, I'm not going to feel bad for you. Yeah, you're a... Yeah, I feel bad for your family. I feel bad for your victims. But not you.

Right. Jesus. um yeah i feel bad for your family i feel bad for your victims but not you yeah right um you want to go to something uh less horrible man i guess yeah yeah yeah so james harden the saga the saga continues oh my god dude. So he's in China now. Got it. And he sold out all his wine in China. And he, after shitting on Daryl Morey. And now he wants to play in China. And he said he's never played in Philly. I don't even, I don't get it.

I don't, I just don't understand. I don't know what happened. Let's break this down. So Harden goes to China, right? A lot of NBA players go to China. NBA is popular in China. China likes basketball. No problem there.

He wants to sell his wine. Go ahead. Hey, he wants to support the Chinese government. Sure. What is happening? He's conspic what is what is what is happening like i don't understand so so so we're pro-labor on this podcast i i we are we are unequivocally pro-labor we believe that dudes are that should get the bag get paid you know the the whole like oh you should get paid less to like get your team a ring well we as fans appreciate that what i don't understand now about harden is if we're at the

point where my mom is asking me what's going on with james harden james harden is the fucking problem like i'm sorry dude you went from you you you you got traded from okc where you were drafted to houston no big deal okc needed to shed some such some salary you you become a hero in houston but you do a lot of weird iso ball and you never get over the hump you never want to rank cool right you go to the nets to help form a super team you you understand that before anyone else this is not working i want out cool you go to the sixers to win a ring allegedly and then you say oh after what a season and a half two seasons i want out it's not working trade me trade me to the clippers well motherfucker you've burned through all the goodwill i had for you yeah like go get paid go to the clip but like what him saying like daryl moore like i believe that both of them are lying as i usually do in these scenarios like absolutely there's like

there's parts of truth to both there's right another version of the truth but i'm just like james dude like you're not good anymore like we watched the playoffs last year yeah i he had that one game where he turned it on and then right and he had two games in against the celtics and then he just kind of ate his own shit for the rest of it yeah i i would like to know because he uh hardin was saying you know after what he referring to more he did i don't want to play for the sixers so was it like all all right, well, you opt in and we'll, and we'll trade you. And then that trade fell through.

Right. What happened? Like, you know, was it trying to like an, like a sign of trade or opt in trade? Like, did that happen?

Did what happened? Exactly. I want to know what happened. Yeah. Because I, I assume it was something under the table, obviously. Yeah.

And I think the six, the Six' front office is a shit show. Which we know to be. Yeah, so I wouldn't be surprised if some stupid happened. I also wouldn't be surprised if Harden might be a little capricious. Right. And whatever, whatever. We've said this before we're pro labor um but you do also have to work you know right yeah i want you to play for my team like i i don't know

i don't know i don't know what it is he's saying he wants to play in china like okay sure sure because you're not getting booed is that is that is? Is it because you're getting shit in Philly? Which you should kind of be getting, honestly. Sorry. Honestly, yeah. And Embiid deserves the shit he's getting, too. A bit. Not all of it.

Not all of it, but right. You know. If he says he's ever going to play a game for the Sixers again, he's never going to play the Sixers again. But, like, what's, I guess, the Ben Simmons strategy? What's the, right, what's the strategy? I don't know. I

I think after this year, the Sixers get past the second round, you just blow it up. I, yeah. Yep. And, and you, because you can get a lot and you just call it, right? No process bullshit, but yeah, uh and i i still love how the

hinky heads are like well this is what happens when you don't get to finish the process all right okay that's what you think okay sure yeah why not i think this is more i think at this point we're more at the the bad decisions like the trading mikhail bridges and mikhail bridges and signing you know tobias harris and the idea of him trying to be signing uh jimmy right not simply jimmy butler like i the bad choices are starting to catch up it feels like yeah yeah just not really good decision and that's a front office problem that's not the player's fault although people will say oh

it's in beads fault because he talks about he tells them who to get sure no i don't none of us are in there we don't know that maybe who knows uh it's it's it's ridiculous but it's i mean it sucks dude it's and it's hard it's just i don't understand i don't understand no really yeah i don't get it either and uh look we got um i don't know i'm not that excited for the for the no i don't care and after the salt extended marcus smart i didn't care. And after the Celtics traded Marcus Smart, I didn't care either. Yeah, I think, you know, the Phillies are definitely a postseason contender unless they completely shit the bed. Right. Eagles are Eagles are clearly a postseason contender. I didn't watch. I don't watch preseason football. Me either. I don't care. I know. Right. I don't.

As of recording tonight, we're playing the Browns. Play the Browns. Yeah, Browns. But it's obvious that we're, you know, barring barring some sort of disaster. We will be back in the playoffs. Yeah. I don't know that there's any reason to give a shit about anything other than the Eagles, the greatest team in the history of mankind.

Fuck you uh go birds birds uh and i hope yeah i hope they they so i hope they speared deshaun watson through the stomach and emerged to the other side wow yeah no you know what i'll yeah i'll endorse that what tom said yeah right through right hassan reddick when his thumb is healed uh sweet baby hassan who i love yeah his thumb he's got thumb surgery but apparently he'll be back before the season but um he's amazing he went to temple proud al spirit right through his belly unfortunately sean bradley uh corner was uh he ripped his acl uh he also went to temple because the eagles just love dudes from temple it's amazing hey well

you know what well i mean you and i are lining up at guard yeah right like yeah well remember hand down man down tom yeah do i still have my ncaa eligibility even though i have my mat i never played i mean i think so if i go get yeah i go get my uh like your doc the second masters yeah i mean you could be a walk-on i don't know why not like i need like the third the third straight i don't even there are dudes there are dudes at the ncaa who are like third like 31 like in weird schools like certain d3 schools some dudes at byu sometimes go to like 28 29 there's a dude who i think is at like cal state fullerton who's on his like eighth season of eligibility or something. Because he just got hurt a bunch of times and like transferred and sat out.

So he's like on his eighth year. Like there are some anomalies in college football where dudes are just like 31 lining up at center. Like. Yeah. The 35 year old fullback for Temple. I don't even think they have a fullback in their scheme. I think they run a pretty spread.

They don't. Whatever, man. You can be the first. Yeah. College football is almost back. I guess that's good. Play on Akron. Akron, bud.

Oh, so it's a schwa? Akron? Akron. Akron, Ohio. Oh, so it's a schwa? Akron? Akron. Akron, Ohio. Sorry for trying to pronounce every vowel properly. You fuck. Probably do the caught vowel. Akron.

All right. We have one of our running backs is from Akron. Isn't it weird that we have Kurt Warner's kid as quarterback? Isn't that weird? It's pretty weird. Isn't that weird to you? That's pretty weird. You know what?

And you know what? It's weird, too. We're playing Rutgers early in the season know what and you know it's weird too we're playing ruckers early in the season but then again it's out of conference yeah yeah that is weird there's a dude named liam besecker who plays tight end for temple needs from lancaster he must be is he is what's the name liam besecker he must be pretty Is he new this year? Shit, I don't... Let me look. Because he wasn't on the roster last year. Maybe he didn't make the...

Sophomore. Yeah, so he may have been redshirted or something. Advanced, yeah. No. I'm like, oh yeah, we got guys like Darvon Hubbard, who I actually rushed for 1,000 yards with in the game. Nice. 87 speed but they all look like kids dude and i know they are all kids i'm looking at the roster like they're all they're all

children yeah on their brains all right try not to think about that go out baby uh uh what else we got we got well we got our first uh i guess our first 10kl reading series um so ken rosenthal yeah the bow tie himself started his uh started started his career uh in in york actually yeah at the ortega record and so i so I'm titling this section, Being Nice Isn't Being Soft. Standing up for your boy is not being soft. Because Ken wrote a little, it's not a long piece. It was part of his weekly wrap-up or whatever he calls it

for The Athletic, where he talked about the standing ovation that we did for Trey Turner and how it kind of seems to have fixed trey turner although trey turner was starting to improve on his own it does actually seem to have worked it worked it worked you're welcome yeah um one of the things and and so the wip guys the reddit guys i don't understand why we're so fucking soft. Yeah, this isn't the city I grew up in. Like, shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.

Right. There's a difference between busting balls and, like, just shitting on someone, kicking them when they're down. And I think a lot of these morons don't understand it, and it's a stereotype about Philly that we're a bunch of fucking idiots who, like, kick our own... Like, it's like we eat our own, which isn't true.

We're not eating our own city. Like like that's we support our boys and i i don't like this this this like the philly captain was the guy who organized this if you've ever watched it if you ever watched the philly captain's videos he doesn't really come off as a soft guy uh he's you know yes you know as an educator one of the things that you learn is you're supposed to kind of like negative reinforcement versus positive reinforcement it's a one to five ratio so for every like time you like yell at a kid you're supposed to say something nice five times right like in theory it like like positive reinforcement works more um and if a guy is like in his own head thinking he sucks and struggling, that doesn't make you make it soft.

But let's, let's, let's read this article together. So it's Ken's, Ken's notebook. The Philly. I know. I grew up in New York.

No, I grew up in New York, but went to college in Philadelphia. You can guess which college. Is he a Drexel Nova? Nope. He Quaker. And I don't even consider them anymore one one glorious sunday afternoon in the early 1980s as i drove with new year plates into

the old veteran stadium for a giants eagle game my car was pelted with rocks bottles and other assorted projectiles that's the philly i know okay no it wasn't no it wasn't no you did not have your car no no one is paying attention to you coming in the parking lot with new york plates no no one is sorry were you were you wearing a giant's jersey did you have giant shit were you flying like even even so dude nah held it with rocks no you so your windows were broken right no you were yeah no you were no that doesn't happen that's you're lying like like you don't have you ever seen someone i've only ever seen someone raz another fan verbally right i've seen stuff thrown in the stands at the game i've never but like you get like fucking taken out of the game for that.

Right. I've never seen people can tell me, call and tell me, tell me if I'm wrong. I've never seen someone throw a fucking bottle at someone's car. You and I both know you're not. Yeah. That's the Philly.

I know. One of the first baseball games ever covered in June, 1985 while working for the courier post in South Jersey was the day. Mike Schmidt took the field and sunglasses and a shoulder-length wig fearing the wrath of fans after calling them a mob scene uncontrollable beyond help that's the philly i know okay uh mike schmidt called called out the fans and what did he do the next day he kind of owned up to it in a way by by by dressing the incognito it's one of the funniest moments in philly sports um have you seen that the yes yes yeah it's hilarious um okay he was was he fearing the wrath of the fans no probably not he was

playing it off as a joke right and we're not allowed to do that though yeah there's two there's two there's two ways you could do the alec bohm own up to it or the two yeah i fucking hate this place right and then admit it right and he was kind of admitting it and playing it off at the same time right it was it was fun it was a joke and if mike schmidt doesn't play it off like he was afraid for his life like come on this philly that the woke mind virus isn't no that's that's me that's what it's that's that's the subtext i'm getting here um yeah yeah this philly the one that gave the philly struggling 300 million man million man pray turner standing ovations friday night is a show of

support the one that michael michael lorenzen saluted wednesday night after pitching a no hitter in his first home start saying he has never been part of an organization where fans are part of the team this philly is softer than a soft philly pretzel fuck you stop fucking pandering softer than a soft Philly pretzel. Which aren't honestly not even that soft, dude. No. No. The best ones are the ones that are hard. They be sitting in the

bottom of the fucking shopping cart and it's got like road dust all over it. That's the best ones I like. Dude. Alright, ready? this philly might be as well might well as be kansas city the way it's practicing midwest nice shut the fuck up fuck you shut the fuck up midwest nice fuck you we actually care it's not this fake bullshit where we pretend to be nice and then we're actually assholes. No, we're actually kind, but not nice. Those are two different things. Someone said that.

Yeah, it's like it's like they're not out west or nice, but not kind. But in Philly, they're kind, but not nice. And my example is when my mom, I was a kid and we blew a tire. We had a flat. I think it was a flat. And the guy helped change the tire. We had a flat. I think it was a flat. The guy helped change the tire, but he's like, he called my mom an idiot for letting the treads run that low.

He helped, and we got home. That's Philly. Soft? Fuck off. If someone called me fucking soft, come through, Ken. Come through, Ken.8, section 328 Come through

You wanna fucking see soft, Ken Fucking bring that fucking bow tie Spin that shit around, make you fucking fly Today on 10,000 Losses, we threaten Ken Rosenthal And this time it's me making the fucking threat. Dude fucking sucks.

And you know what? This, the Philly, the kinder, gentler version is getting results. Yeah, because we like our players. Because he's on this team for the next fucking decade. We don't have a choice. We are very much married to trey turner

yeah and he's he's he did you see how sad he looked how sad that the sad twink face he was making come on yeah no he's not a guy who bullying doesn't work on him no and you gotta know yeah like we i respect we all respected alec bohm a lot more when he was just like i fucking hate this place yeah dude it's it's it's and alec bohm's the kind of guy who could take the shit i don't think trey turner is or at least it's like it's like you have when you're meeting a friend or like you're learning like like you are me you meet someone's friend who you who they have a dynamic they've known for years right and you and you slide in and you start like trying to bust their balls oh you're just an asshole right yeah

you're just jumping in and being a dickhead you don't right you don't have that report of your rapport right exactly no you're absolutely right we don't have that rapport with train now we might but but he got he got the standing ovation and and's just like, oh, you shouldn't be. Sorry, my my mom. OK, I'm going to read you a text from my mother. OK, good afternoon, period. Are you coming over to collect the cable stuff? I have no idea what she's talking about.

Question mark. I am going to the farmers rocket around four or so. Otherwise, we will be here. It looks like Trump may get invited in Arizona, which I have not heard. Period. Woo-hoo! Exclamation point. Thanks, Liam's mom. Thanks.

Thanks, mom. Yeah, make sure you quote tweet pictures of your family for no fucking reason. You're a fucking psycho. Yeah, that was unusual. Dude, that dude woke up that day. I'm just going to piss off Liam on purpose that dude woke up that day and was like, I'm going to piss off Liam on purpose.

I just blocked him. I was like, would you post pictures of my family? There's nothing you can say to me that is worth hearing. Yeah, that makes that... Not even under their actual account. It was like, come on. I'm on Twitter.

So, this philly kindler gentler versus getting results the night of the standing ovations i don't like how he capitalized it like night of the long knives uh propelled uh what are you trying to say here ken uh are you saying that he went 14 for 88 uh uh propelled to a six-game hitting streak, producing a homer, four doubles, and a 1-1-12 OPS. And Lorenzen said the roaring crowd gave him a boost of energy in the seventh, eighth, and ninth innings Wednesday night, pushing him to complete his 124-pitch outing. An old college friend from Philly texted me after the game saying,

maybe the standing O thing works. I replied, you guys would have like 12 rings if you weren't so bitter all those years shut the fuck up you shut the fuck up go back to new york this time i am gonna i'm gonna fuck up your car cad we're gonna make it true now yeah i i am going to football toss a fucking roman candle roman candle yeah a mad dog 40 40 bottle with a roman candle inside directly at your fucking right directly into your windshield exactly shut the fuck up bitch oh my god just you know what i wish you were the guy who died when the the i-95 collapsed this is the guy who just he just like it's weird because he's he's using Philly for for cultural clout, but also then trying to distance himself from it to be like, yeah, yeah, I'm kind of from Philly.

But like, I'm not like that. And I know someone who is from York, Pennsylvania. She's actually from Watertown, New York, who moved to York and now claims to be from Philly, even though she left after she finished a pen. And she's like, I'm from Philly. No, you're fucking not. You went to school here and left. I love that. I love that. Yeah, I'm from Philadelphia. Oh, yeah. Where are you from?

I'm from this town outside called Reading. York. Very far western suburbs. If you're Westchester, you ain't from fucking philly westchester you said like oh i'm actually from upper derby like all right yeah i got you i know what you mean i'm from fucking croydon okay i'm not gonna argue with you from croydon because i'm scared of you lower bucks you could just have it if you're from croydon i'm gonna get you mad you're gonna

punch out my teeth and take them you you. Wear them on a necklace, right. I'm going to drill holes through them, yeah. The closest you can get to a D&D barbarian. My friend is actually from Upper Derby, and he's the most from Philly

dude I've ever met. Kieran Curran, if you're listening, you are more from Philly than any of us've ever met. Oh, yeah. Kieran Curran, if you're listening, you are more from Philly than any of us will ever be. If that's Everett Darby, I can't imagine what Lower Darby looks like. All right. Kieran's great. I love him.

At this point, Sam, from Philly, a lot of people are like, oh, where did you like... Oh, I'm from Philly. If I'm meeting people who are not from here right because i've now lived here for what year is it 2023 i've lived here for 13 years like yeah you could say at that point i've been here long enough and you kind of have a brand philly brand i do have a philly brand i live and die on the philly brand although i am actually

from beautiful york pennsylvania which is a shithole don't ever go there um i think i've driven through there once um sorry you want to talk about getting bottles thrown at you it's like a fucking trailer park easter man i've only ever had rock thrown at me once and that was like i have had shit thrown at my car you know allegheny allegheny ave where the i think it's actually no it's not the Northeast Corridor It's I don't know what rail line it is But there's like that rail track like Trenton Ave Yeah yeah yeah yeah I was in a car with a friend and someone threw

A bunch of rail ballast God damn Yeah it cracked the windshield And uh They had to call the cops For his insurance. Kids ran off. Yeah.

That's the only time I've ever had shit like that happen to me. Getting back to the article, kidding aside, what a night it was in Philadelphia from longtime minor leaguer Weston Wilson hitting a first-time run in his first major league at-back

to Nick Castellanos crushing his 199th and 200th career homers to Lorenzing, completing his no-no. Mr. Comet. No, actually, he's fine. What did display a passion and emotion throughout the game? What an atmosphere the fans created at Citizens Bank Park. I'll admit it. That's the Philly I know, too.

So, he pulls back his critique. Yeah, what the fuck are you... What are you... This is shitty. Bad. Bad writing. Bad at your job, Ken. Bad. So the Philly you know is really supportive.

Yeah, but you knew the whole time. Why don't you lead with that? Fuck ass. It's a fucking dumb ass. Yeah, go get more bow ties and fuck you um uh yeah that's just i guess i said the beginning being being being nice isn't being soft or being kind isn't being soft i don't want to say it um we we we if you're not from philly you're listening to this podcast. It, the, the thing is, is that we want the guys to play hard.

We, we sublimate a lot of our personal bullshit. It's a working class town. There's a lot of people who don't got a lot in the city and sports is a big outlet for us. So we sublimate a lot of our hopes and wants and dreams onto our sports teams. We expect our players to play as hard as we would given that that that lucky chance to have hustle and to own up to their mistakes and not bullshit that's the feeling that's why we've come down so hard and and i think on some element is there a racial element to it yes but at the same time definitely because it because because

it's like there's guys like donathan mcnev had there was a higher bar for him right and there's a higher bar for harden and mb yeah yeah and and and lower for for some other guys but there are also players of of of you know i want to say like the bar for like dick allen was was instrumentally high like right you know instrumentally high and he was not able to do that until, until later in his career or later in his life, like right before he died and he didn't really get all the recognition he deserved in his life. I think we're starting to realize that. And,

and there is, I think a lot of young Philly guys don't give a shit about the race of the player. Not that there isn't young racists, but I think that element there's there's there's always going to be judge boys you know yeah yeah there's always going to be judge boys um that's waning i think a bit and philly philly you know again it's i'm not saying it's gone but i do think it's fortunately waning i think race is less of an issue with the younger generation right um but um yeah it's it's an expectation of of working hard and and you know yeah um that's the philly i know that's the philly i know we did it Yeah. Well, one team we didn't cover was the Union. We have our boy, Charlie.

We got three minutes of Charlie for you coming up. Beautiful. Oh, excuse me. But I believe we've been kicked out of the CONCACAF. Did we lose? Because Messi. Apparently, he's really good. Yeah.

This guy, Leo. Yeah. This guy who's like the best soccer player in the world dude it's like it's it's a motherfucker that this guy has to just come to chester sometimes right like it's it's it's like putting bryce harper and he gets to play like american legion ball again right like put put him on the fucking college team like it's not fair right it is not fair but uh yeah charlie's got a uh a message for us uh kind of covering uh what happened there so let's uh let's go to our union correspondent uh hey guys uh yay liam hey tom This is Charlie. He, him. Just watched the Union implode in the semifinals of the Tim Apple League Cup against Lionel Messi and Inter Miami,

who basically ran the Union out in the first three minutes of the game, getting three goals in the first half. They lost two. Lionel Messi scoring probably the second furthest shot of his club career. The Miami scored basically only on all four of their shots on target tonight. And it looked pretty much the Union were out of it for the entire first half. Big Jimbo overfought it a bit with the formation

and didn't really kind of have players kind of sticking themselves to Busquets and not really leaving space over the top, which led to the first goal, when they basically one-passed it to Joseph Martinez, who beat Blake, and then another two direct passes after Joseph gets it to Messi, who was wide open in the middle of the field. You can't leave them even 40 yards out. Basically, everybody was slow to react, especially Blake on that one. The third goal was probably

the backbreaker right at halftime when, again, on another break, Jordy Alba scored. Eugene did pull one back. Basically, Miami went AFK for probably two-thirds of the second half.

Controller disconnected. Alejandro Barroia coming on and scoring a goal off of a well one-touch by Verschetz in the box, and he just basically buried it to make it 3-1. Then Miami homegrown crew scores the fourth goal to end the game. Miami basically has been blitzing through everybody, scoring four goals. The only time that they had any trouble was in the round of 16 against Dallas when they had to come back from two goals down at the 80th minute to force penalties to win. This is typical.

This is almost a little too typical for the Union and overly hyped games when everybody's got the attention on them. It happened in the 2018 Open Cup against Houston. It happened in the first game of the playoffs against New England in 2020 after winning

the Shields. It was pretty much on form with those tonight. Outside of the UFC final where they lost half the team due to COVID or the MLS Cup. They fought hard the entire game and only came up short. I think we ran into the time limit there. I didn't know there was a time limit. Yeah, it's three minutes um for charlie yeah thank thanks charlie for your uh somewhat incomplete um coverage

one thing i gotta say um if you're a union fan and you're gonna shit on inner miami for playing 40 miles north of miami uh where do you think the union play it's chester baby it's chester so don't get a little i know it's a look it's closer to 40 miles it's like what like 10 but like come on yeah don't don't open that discourse um yeah feel bad for the for the for the union fans this year it's not been uh last year was like a like a magicalale season, as it was for a lot of Philly teams.
