Starting point is 00:00:00 He is actually going to eject a fan. Because bad things happen in Philadelphia, bad things. The fan jumped into the penalty box area. The joy it is to come to Philadelphia and stand here and dodge an ice ball. We, the Dallas Cowboys, had a sense of making time to do it. And we're live. Fuck James Harden, dude. I am so tired of James Harden.
Starting point is 00:00:40 I'm so tired of this team consuming and spitting out and ruining my life. You know, you're 33 years old. Is he 33 or is he like 35? I don't think he's as old as me. Oh, James. Jimmy Harden. Jimmy to his friends.
Starting point is 00:01:00 He's 34. He just turned 34. And he wants to be the guy. I read a report from Rachel Nichols today on ESPN that was like, oh, yeah, James Harden is mad because Philadelphia is a Joel Embiid show, and he wants to be the number one option. It's like you're too old. I'm sorry. You came to a team where it was clear who the number one option was
Starting point is 00:01:23 because you wanted to win. Yeah. where it was clear who the number one option was because you wanted to win. Yeah, usually what happens is when you get a guy as talented as James Harden, who's still a very talented player, and you have a guy like Joel Embiid, typically you would think that Harden would be involved in some sort of creative playmaking that would get Embiid down in the post. On weird backdoor looks, yeah. Yeah, and because Harden, you might be getting older, you might be a little slower, but man, you fucking can still pass.
Starting point is 00:01:54 You can fucking still create plays, and you can still hit step back. But he just doesn't want to, dude. Yeah, I don't know what he wants. He wants to play the same ISO ball he played out of Arizona State. It doesn't make any fucking sense to me. Yeah, he wants to get the ball, hold the R2 button, and just turbo into the... Right, yes, yes, yes. Turbo ISO 3, back rim 35-footer, back rim 35-footer, back rim 35-footer.
Starting point is 00:02:21 No, it's not happening. I don't know i i i see this uh accusation about the nba being thrown around that the nba is becoming a reality tv show and it's a bit frustrating to watch i'll give them that shit like this kind of makes it feel that way a little bit. A little bit. I mean, like we said, it's like, dude, go get the bag. That's totally fine. And if you want to go to Houston because they'll pay you more and you're like, hey, I really like this organization,
Starting point is 00:02:54 that's sort of fine. And if it comes out that the Sixers promised you X dollar, even on a handshake agreement and then reneged on it, you're correct to be upset. I don't think that's what happened on it you're correct to be upset like yeah you know i don't think that's what happened but you're correct to be upset and i and i wouldn't blame you for being like hey like i was not told the truth and now i don't want to play here
Starting point is 00:03:13 it's totally fine but the like oh i i it's like you stank it up you stank it up and now you sort of are looking to me the fan to back you up and's like, I don't have much sympathy for you, man. You do this in every city you go to. Yeah. Man, we really are sounding like WIP right now. But like. Well, it's one thing if you're like Dame Lillard and it's like, clearly the organization has not held up its side of the bargain. Right.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Where it's clear that like, we told you we were going to build a contender around you and we didn't do that. You are absolutely right to want out. And we're learning more and more about, it just seems like the Sixers front office is a fucking mess. It still is. It hasn't gotten any better under Maury. It doesn't feel like it's gotten any better at all.
Starting point is 00:03:59 No, no, I, I don't know what it is. It's, it's probably Josh Harris, you know, sticking his nose and everything. Yeah. We're not, it's not anti-S is. It's probably Josh Harris. Sticking his nose in everything.
Starting point is 00:04:07 It's not anti-Semitic. I'm doing it. Is he Jewish? Yeah, Josh Harris. Oh, I know who he is. He's Jewish. Okay. No, you have to have a stereotypical last name to be Jew.
Starting point is 00:04:22 You can look at his face and tell that he's Jewish. Again, you could say that. I guess I can say that. Harris is Jewish, right off the rip. You could do the voice too, but I can't. Oh, Joshua, will we see you at Zizek on today? Oh, you want to meet your friend Moshi? Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Listen, I have had numerous rabbis be like alright bitch what are you coming to synagogue and I'm like whoa yeah you're allowed to do that those dudes don't pay themselves motherfucker oh my god you want to be a young member
Starting point is 00:05:04 you want to be a young contributor to the synagogue? Obviously, all occasions of me doing the voice have been excised from the podcast. But the reason I do it is because I was hanging out with my then girlfriend. She's my ex now. And her Chabad rabbi, out of the blue called her up just went to check him how was it going she hasn't been there for like three years or something like that really really really wanted to talk to her ask her if she had any questions about god rabbi levy who we used to live next to uh on sansom street back in west philly
Starting point is 00:05:40 uh rabbi levy came home one night super late late, and I was like, and Raz and I had been debating the existence of God and what it meant to believe or not believe. And we asked, Rabbi Levy, do you think there's a God? And he looks us dead in the eyes and goes, probably not. I was like, aren't you the one
Starting point is 00:06:00 who's supposed to, man, like... Oh, man. You know what? It's hard out here man it is i wonder how many catholic priests if you just straight up ask them like after they had a couple beers yeah do you really think yeah i think you'd probably be in the low 20s i i mean there's there's that the whole you know father ted if you ever see father ted just ignore one of the names on the opening credits because they're uh turf but yeah father ted is a great show and if you grew up catholic and you haven't seen it you have to absolutely say it because it's it'll it's where
Starting point is 00:06:34 you you'll get the references and it'll help ease the pain but um the one priest being like so what do you think about this whole god sort of thing you know do you really think he's real like he's like father you're a priest this is your fucking job you're supposed to yeah shouldn't you know um but yeah that is too fucking funny dude oh my god dude i couldn't imagine that just being there like dude you're the fucking guy if you you got more insight you're supposed to have the line. Shouldn't you know, man? Like, I'm not supposed to. Like, it's you, dude.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Yeah. All right. Well, shouts out to that rabbi for being keeping it real. Oh, he was keeping it real. He was fascinating. Rabbi Levy was fascinating, dude. Keeping it real goes wrong. That's a good song by the Wonder Years.
Starting point is 00:07:28 It's also a good Chabelle show. Yes. Oh, man. Alright. How was your coffee? It was good, but my last swallow had a coffee ground. A ground? A coffee ground? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Singular? One grind? I don't know. Yeah. Singular. One ground. One grind. I don't know. Yeah. This is a mass noun. I don't know. But hello.
Starting point is 00:07:52 You're listening to a welcome to another episode of 10,000 Losses. The 69th episode of 10,000 Losses. Nice. Nice. Sex number. Sex number. Yeah. I always thought it was just two dicks.
Starting point is 00:08:08 Because it's the same shape. I figured if it was going to be that 69, it would actually be a six and an eight. Nope. But what do I know? But here at 10,000 Losses, we don't discriminate. All configurations are welcome here. On the only Philadelphia sports podcast that exists.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I'm your host, Tom Payne. My pronouns are he, him. With me is my co-host, Ye. Liam, hi. Liam Anderson. My pronouns are he, him. Awesome. We don't have any... Well, you know what? We don't have any guests, but we will soon. We don't have any announcements, I don't think, if you haven't listened to the
Starting point is 00:08:43 bonus with Jordan for Bring Him Young Money. The Bring Him Young Money boy, yes. The singular boy who was able to go. Kyle is a coward, doesn't want to talk about college sports. And Greg
Starting point is 00:08:59 had to go watch Barbie. I thought he had to go watch Oppenheimer. It's the same movie. Oh. They're the exact same movies. Fair enough. Yeah, go listen to that episode on Patreon.com.
Starting point is 00:09:15 It's 10,000 Losses. Also, if you haven't heard about Patreon moving its... Shit in the bed, yeah. Yeah, moving its address to Dublin, Ireland as part of a tax shelter thing. The same thing that Apple does because Ireland is a neoliberal hellhole
Starting point is 00:09:33 that will remain the same until it's unified under Sinn Fein. Until that happens, it's going to be neoliberal hell. That has caused some people's Patreon pledges to decline. Yeah, without real explanations to say. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:51 And one of them, when you got declined, it actually pays a lot. So why don't you check that? Yeah, because... Please. Please, stand alone and say, what are we to pay $ a thousand dollars a month I negotiated that down to some
Starting point is 00:10:07 to a reasonable 500 nice yeah oh I have to do 10 years of service to get it forgiven
Starting point is 00:10:15 at least that's available to me man that fucking sucks for people who aren't eligible for that it's bullshit yeah
Starting point is 00:10:22 it's just bullshit I was talking, I'm going to have a fucking rant right now. We had a work happy hour and then one of the, one of the, I won't say who it is, but like one of my colleagues
Starting point is 00:10:34 decided to out themselves as a libertarian. Oh. Oh. While we were talking about student loans. Oh. I'm not, yeah, they wanted to let us know how they, we were talking, me and another colleague were talking
Starting point is 00:10:49 about student loan forgiveness program. And I was like, oh yeah, get on that because you'll get yours forgiven. And if you've been paying your loans for this long, you might not have to pay anything else. And it's like, oh yeah, do it while it has it because I don't know how sustainable a program is. Dude, it's the federal. Okay. These people who think they know economics know nothing about economics. The government could literally say, this is how much a dollar is worth.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Like, you know, how much bread is worth to a dollar. And that's what it is. Like, they don't understand that all this economic shit is just justified. It's the science of capitalism. It's not the science of actual economics. They don't know. It's fake. How much of our budget? It's like 40% of the budget goes to the military
Starting point is 00:11:36 for aircraft carriers that don't work. Yep. It's the F-35 that's been serviced for five years and now they're finally maybe fixing the fucking problems? Yeah, it flies in the fucking rain now. Because, God forbid, although,
Starting point is 00:11:52 did you hear about the radar in the rain with the F-35? I did not. So, when the F-35 flies in the rain, if you have weather radar, it'll show an F-35, that's high resolution enough, it'll show an F-35 that's high resolution enough. It'll show an F-35 shaped gap in the radar.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Right. Very, very, very, very well engineered technology. Brought down by fucking Nexrad. Fuck that shit. Alright, Colin, tell us what you would do with the F-35. Actually, me.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Don't do that. Look at me. Hello there. Walking in right as we're you would do with the F-35. Actually, maybe we don't do that. Hi, Rini. Look at me. Hello there. Walking in right as we're talking about what to do with someone's penis. It looks fantastic. You have to wear it to the bar like this? She has to wear it to the bar. Rini has gotten into crochet. So she's got a...
Starting point is 00:12:39 I am wearing a sweater that I am making. It has no sleeves and it only comes to my mid-stomach so far. So not my best look, but it will be fashionable soon. Proud of you. Are you going to wear that to, like, Kenan's? Yeah, wear it to Kenan's. Ooh, to Kenan's.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Oh, Irish weekend. Oh, boy. I can't wait. Guys who think they're IRA because of the Republican part. Oh, yeah. That's the worst. That is the fucking worst. What's the bar that has Chucky Arlott?
Starting point is 00:13:14 It's not Keene's. Anglesey Pub. Anglesey Pub. Thank you. Hopefully they... I think they know what it means. They do. I have met the owner.
Starting point is 00:13:21 I can confirm that he knows what he's saying. All right. Excellent. Colin, 267-3717-218. Give us your name and pronouns. Like I said, tell us what you would do with the F-35's penis. Yes. Maybe we could have the radar profile in the rain be a penis shape. Oh, that would be fun.
Starting point is 00:13:40 That would be very funny. All right. And I said, patreon.com slash $10,000. Ray said funny. All right. And I said, Patriot.com slash $10,000. Ray said that. All right. So we talked about James Harden. Wouldn't be back or wouldn't be number one. Doesn't want to be back.
Starting point is 00:13:53 No, he's not bad. Ben Simmons is coming back to Philly. Apparently he said he's making his apologies. Dude, this is what I'm saying. The mayor culpator. I don't know what,
Starting point is 00:14:02 what the logic is here. I. Trying to save his reputation. Yeah. Yeah. Does he think he's getting out of the nets? Like, I don't know. Yeah. She's gone, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Yeah, I don't really know what the... Hi, Ren. Oh, hello again. Nothing. I said she's gone, unfortunately. Say hi. Bye. Love you.
Starting point is 00:14:31 Yeah, so Ben Simmons is doing the Mayakulpa Tour, I guess because he knows he's not going to play for the Nets again. So he will come back to Philly, our prodigal son, and Ben Simmons will somehow go off for 40, 30, and 10 and win us a championship. He finally learned how to shoot. I swear to God. Dude, can you imagine Ben Simmons coming back on a veteran minimum deal
Starting point is 00:14:51 and just dunking the ball into the sun 900 times? I need to get my Ben Simmons jersey out of the trash. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, he shows up. It's raining, a really cold, misty October evening. The Castellanos household, they hear a knock at the door. Nick comes over and he looks and he just sees Ben, who's crouching down to appear tinier. He like undoes his hoodie and he's like crying.
Starting point is 00:15:24 He's like, do you have room at the inn? And then he goes off for 45 points. Yeah, they let him stay in the room over the garage. They saved the Simo the Savage neon just in case. Dude, what is he doing? That's
Starting point is 00:15:42 so... It's funny and weird and so like i would come back to philly base i mean for those of you who haven't seen it it's a interview with ben simmons where he in all in all but actually like saying the sentence basically comes out and says if given another chance i would come back to philadelphia yeah yeah i all Literally all but says it. And I. I don't know. Is he. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:09 We're redoing the trade. Can we also get. What's his name? If we get Seth Curry back. Yeah. Can we get Seth Curry back? Yeah. Is he still in the Nets?
Starting point is 00:16:16 No. He went to the back to the Mavericks. Don't blame him. But. Yeah. Yeah. Let's just revert. We're going to hit control.
Starting point is 00:16:24 We did truly in all but in all but coming out and saying and say I would come back to blame them uh but yeah yeah yeah let's just revert we're gonna hit control basically did truly in all but in all but coming out and saying and say i would come back to philly if they'd have me yeah yeah and i gotta tell you i'd have him would you yeah man i'm i'm i'm full i'm full i'm full on the reuniting train uh a because it would be the funniest fucking thing in the universe. And B, I honestly feel like a more mature wisened up Ben Simmons would be dangerous to the rest
Starting point is 00:16:54 of the league. With the way, like, if we lose Harden and get Ben back, I'm not that upset. Because now it's like, oh, you actually mean it. You actually want to come back and play? Fine. Fine. Fine. I don't know. I don't know how I feel about this.
Starting point is 00:17:10 I don't think, I don't know how forgiving I am. Oh, I'm, see, that's what makes me better than you, is I'm very magnanimous. Absolutely. Also, I am, how do you say, deep cover, because I actually root for the Boston Celtics. So that's right.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Yeah. Um, whatever's going to destroy this team even further. Uh, yeah, it's what I want to say. I don't like, I think it's very important to remember that, uh, I live my life on the principle of ABC. Anybody but Corinne. I was going to make a joke about, joke about calling back to earlier and how you only know perfidity and it's,
Starting point is 00:17:51 you can't help it, but. Oh yeah. It's me. Shylock. I want my pound of flesh, James. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:01 Oh, he's got plenty. Oh, he's got plenty. Yeah. He could, he could spare a few. You know, it's still weird to me out. No, he's got plenty. Oh. He's got plenty. Yeah. He could spare a few. You know what's still weird to me out? What's up?
Starting point is 00:18:10 I know this. When you lose weight, you actually breathe it out. You what? When you lose weight, you actually breathe it out. Oh. Yeah. It's like it gets metabolized. Whatever your muscle, your fat that gets like cooked by your body.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Freeze it out. Yeah, that makes sense. That's weird, though. I don't like it. Yeah, I know, right? But yeah, let's you know what? Let's just run back. Let's just hit reverse on the whole process.
Starting point is 00:18:41 And we're going to get Covington back. We're going to get Super Dario back we're here get super dario back dario yeah yeah let's just run that back wait back when we had hope and dreams oh remember that yeah and we thought the process was actually going to be something that was uh at least gonna have a final work the process didn't work and you you still you still can't say that you you will not be able to say that for that for like 20 years like in a bar and not get someone fucking in your face no you won't even though it's true because our sports opinions are better than your sports opinions yep um i just agree there all right. Do you want to talk about baseball or football next? Let's do baseball, dude.
Starting point is 00:19:29 All right. So how about the fightings? How about them fightings, dude? Dude. Positive reinforcement works. Positive reinforcement. How many times have I texted you? Like, what are they feeding these boys?
Starting point is 00:19:43 That was a great text. I was like, what the fuck is oh yeah although i better check the score like i i turned it off when they had uh or i was doing so i think i was recording uh well there's a problem and i wasn't watching and then you know what i was doing oh no i think i was actually in therapy but that's whatever uh that's justified yeah i uh but yeah it's it's been they have the most comfort behind wins uh in baseball they are playing an incredibly goofy style of ball right now where they uh you know, they have gone from small ball pitching and winning games 3-2 defensively to the 13-12 all gas, no breaks. With this team we thought was going to be. Right.
Starting point is 00:20:36 Smash the bell, you know, add someone fucking 76. Like, that's what we thought this team was going to be and um dude i can't i can't imagine like if if we keep this up in the playoffs it's it's dude it's disgusting because you don't every guy in this lineup right now is a threat to go yard right absolutely dude absolutely it's it they're non-zero i mean booms boom it's funny because boom was projected to be an actual power hitter, and he's been hitting more contact guy, but he's apparently been putting on muscle. If he just keeps up his contact rate but also hits with more power, that's scary. And Bryson Stott is unreal.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Johan Rojas has been playing very well. I mean, this team has been very playing very well i mean this this team has been playing really well yeah after the all-star break we had a sort of a little skid and then since then it's just been they seem to have gotten it together yeah yeah um yeah we're recording this on the first of september um so hopefully you know we're we're number one in the wild card right now i think we're up like what three and a half games three and a half i believe yeah yeah um that'd be amazing bring us the fucking braves i want we wish to feast on their bones yeah they and and you will see and this is shocking because usually braves fans are like you know very conceited uh types, usually racist, usually poorly endowed.
Starting point is 00:22:08 But they are actually afraid of the Phillies in the playoffs. You'll see that on their subreddit and stuff or Braves Twitter. Yeah, yeah. They're afraid of the Phillies because the Phillies in the playoffs are tough. They're a tough team. But the Braves historically don't really play all that well in Philly. I mean, I was there. I witnessed it. I
Starting point is 00:22:30 stood for three hours. I wasn't doing it because I don't do it, but they're doing the chop mockingly. Philly in the playoffs is dangerous. You can look up. Players talking about this. Now that Philly's a playoff team, no one wants to play in Philly in the playoffs is dangerous. And you can look up, like, players talking about this. Like, now that Philly's, like, a playoff team,
Starting point is 00:22:47 no one wants to play in Philly during the postseason. Because it's insane. We're fucking psychos. And we cheer the whole fucking, you know. I can't imagine what it's like to be, like, a Phillies player and have that, like, behind you. Like, when it is going well. That must feel pretty good.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Yeah. Yeah. That's, you got to wake up in the yeah that's you gotta wake up in the morning like imagine wake up in the morning and like you're trey turner now dude you must think you're the fucking you know biggest swinging dick in the fucking locker room like you know like it's yeah uh i could think a lot of our listeners would be doing pleasant things. Yeah, probably. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Speaking of their penises, did you see the footage of them walking in with the overalls? Yes. Oh, my God. Dude, they weren't lying. Because what's his name? Brandon Marsh was not lying about Michael Lorenzen having just guns. Dude, they're all jacked. And then Jose Alvarado swagging in there.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Dude, this team. I feel bad for Milwaukee. Me too. I hope. They've been playing well, but historically, the Phillies have done pretty well in Milwaukee. Oh, okay. Yeah, especially recently.
Starting point is 00:24:10 I don't think the Brewers are a particularly strong team. If they make the playoffs, they're going to make it as a division winner, and they wouldn't have made the playoffs otherwise. So, you know, I don't think – I'm not particularly worried about the Cubs either in the playoffs otherwise so um you know i i don't think i don't think i'm not particularly worried about the cubs either in the playoffs um i will play well against them too well as long as we keep it up we'll have home field advantage so i don't know i'm not particularly none of the only teams that actually were me um in the playoffs would be if mi Miami somehow managed to get back up on board Yeah, yeah
Starting point is 00:24:47 I'm just checking the standings now Yeah And what was the other team? I didn't realize the Central The Central's decent We have the same record as the Brewers Yeah We
Starting point is 00:24:58 We're doing about the same as they are I didn't realize that 74-59, exact same record. Arizona would scare me too. Arizona is sort of... Yeah, I get that. I totally get that. I think we handled the Giants pretty well when I was watching those games.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Yes. Handled the Angels all right. They got lucky on a couple pitches. Got some nice calls in our favor. Yeah, but I think that's... I think we'll be all right. I just don't know what it's going to look like, basically. Yeah, I mean, if you're looking at some more of the advanced stuff, like Milwaukee's run differential isn't really that high, whereas...
Starting point is 00:25:42 I noticed that, yeah. Like, the Cubs are definitely a better team than the Dodgers. I meant the opposite. They could easily take the division. Genuinely, Miami, for some reason, plays up against Philly really well. If they manage to sneak into the wild card, we have to face
Starting point is 00:26:01 them. Like I said, Miami or Arizona, we don't play well in Arizona and we don't play well in Miami. So I'd be worried about us finishing it off. Right. Right now, we'd be playing the Oh, God. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Which I'm not worried about. They're a good team. I mean, they're playing better. They better run differential than we do. But I'm not worried about that now. Yeah. I'm not worried about. They are a good team. I mean, they're playing better. They better run differential than we do. But I'm not worried about that now. Yeah. I'm looking at the home away splits right now. The Phillies 41-26 in home games. The Braves are 44-22.
Starting point is 00:26:42 The Dodgers 46-22. Anyone else even? Baltimore and Tampa Bay are the only other teams that are in the 40s looks like so we have pretty strong home team advantage so yeah home field advantage I mean yeah so I don't know we're getting close we're getting close I mean there's still a month of baseball left but we're getting there
Starting point is 00:27:00 and we gotta play I think like the Mets like four times in two weeks at the end. And while they suck, they like to fucking show up against us. Exactly. So, yeah, we'll see what happens. No one's really
Starting point is 00:27:18 clinched. I don't think anyone's actually clinched yet. Atlanta will be the first to clinch. Yes. Oh, yeah, dude. Yeah. And they're scary.
Starting point is 00:27:29 They're a scary team. They're a well-made team, but I still think Philly's... I think we can make a lot of noise. I don't know if we'll make it to the World Series, but I think we can make a lot of noise. And I think if we could just keep the bats hot and get the pitching sort of under control. Yeah. I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:43 I mean, they've been playing well. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I'm happy with the way this team is playing. But I just, you know, it feels like the Braves are sort of a Fed accompli, honestly. They're so fucking good, dude. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:04 I mean, they have a run differential of like 236. Yeah, I know. Three to four times what we have. Yeah, which if those are what that means, it's the difference between the runs that you have scored and the runs you've scored. Yeah. So, they have
Starting point is 00:28:20 been just absolutely... And the Braves, there's a lot of players, besides Azuna, there's a lot of guys in the Braves who are easy to like. Acuna is really easy to like. Right. It's just that the Braves as an organization are incredibly unlikable. Yeah, absolutely. Very well-run organization.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Yes. Begrudgingly, yes. Yeah. Well, speaking of – well, I don't think it's begrudging. So actually just transitioning, speaking of the Phillies being good, Bryce Harper hit his 300th home run. Yes, he did, and we're very proud of him. And he came out for a curtain call kissing the fucking Phillies logo.
Starting point is 00:29:00 I know. What a panderer. I love it. Pander to me, daddy. Yeah, he listens. Yeah, pander me harder love it he pandered to me daddy yeah he listens he yeah pander me harder he listens to wip apparently i just don't do that dude to get him to get himself fired up yeah yeah i to be in his brain oh there's nothing going on there it's it's it's hitting home runs and it's hockey romance novels yes uh i i i just i don't know what's going on but yeah apparently uh um dude i do you think he's legit though do you think he got he must love it here because he gets like gets all the attention praise and i i saw the debate and it's like say he plays relatively well the
Starting point is 00:29:46 rest of his career where does he fall in like the philly's pantheon of greats he's still way the fuck up there i feel like he's up there i don't think he's a mike schmidt tier no but but he could you deliver us a ring and i think he's the greatest philly of all time gracefully well i still think schmidt's the greatest of all time, and I think he's the greatest filly of all time. Greatest filly? Well, I still think Schmidt's the greatest of all time. Nope. Give us a ring. Give us a ring. Well, if he gives us two rings, maybe.
Starting point is 00:30:13 But, you know, I still don't think – like, he's really good, but he's not – maybe it's just a sign of the times. Like, he's a really, really good offensive player, offensive player but he's like okay defensively yeah but he he has a swag and i think i just think this team really really really vibes well and they all really like each other they do and jose alvarado is making necklaces for the guys um oh yeah the vibes are are immaculate I wish we had a Brandon Marsh Everyone should have a Brandon Marsh in their life He seems like Just the most positive
Starting point is 00:30:50 I mean, he is a golden retriever As a human being Nothing going on up there No, but he looks like the kind of guy That just always got your back Yeah I love him, I truly love him. Yeah, he's such a...
Starting point is 00:31:08 And people bitch about the trade. You know, we got rid of Moniak and Logan Ahapi, which only one of those was actually traded for him. I forget which. I think it was Logan. Nah, he's played well.
Starting point is 00:31:20 And as a clubhouse guy, especially since we lost like Zagur and Kutch. Right. You know, he's been the clubhouse guy, especially since we lost Segura and Kutch. He's been the clubhouse guy, I think, with him and Schwarber. But yeah, this team's so fucking fun. So fucking fun to watch.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Dude, absolutely. A joy. Genuinely a joy. They're so fun. They're so weird. Just strange dudes. Like the fact that Kyle Schwarber might be the first player in MLB history to have 40 home runs at a negative war is fucking amazing. Yeah, it's insane. It literally is insane.
Starting point is 00:31:55 And there was I put it up on our Twitter, but someone on tipping pitches slack came up like he's number two in the list of sub 200 batting average yet. But with offensive production. Yeah. Like to have an OPS that was positive, you know? Right. Yeah. It's amazing. It's truly amazing.
Starting point is 00:32:15 I love Schwarber. I love the bury me in a Phillies jersey shit. Yeah. And whether you really made it or not, but it's going to get the fucking fans route because that's all we want we just want you to be as passionate as we are and if you match if you match that you fucking love it bryce is bryce is yeah even though like uh alec boe my fucking hate this place shit like yeah yeah because we hate it here too but then we love it
Starting point is 00:32:43 at the same time. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. We're writing like a panegyric to the fucking Phillies right now. That's okay. Well, speaking of handsome guys, did you get to watch Otani? I did. I watched him not be very good. No.
Starting point is 00:33:05 He did have a double in one day. Well, so he's got the same situation Bryce Harper had. His UCL was shot, but he can still. He blew up his UCL, yeah. I think we should probably at some point, when we do our deep dive again, do a deep dive on the Angels medical staff, because I think there's a lot there. Yes. Because Mike Trout is consistently being injured.
Starting point is 00:33:30 And Shohei Otani now tore his UCL. The first time he was imaged was this injury. Right. This guy has been complaining, though, of pain almost the whole season. For the whole time, right? Yeah. And so, Arnie Marino, who's the Angels owner, he's a piece of shit. Of course he is.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Worse than most owners are pieces of shit. Right. But this guy's UCL is blown out. The greatest player of our time right now. Right. Literally. The Babe Ruth of our time. Yes. The best baseball player The Babe Ruth of our time.
Starting point is 00:34:06 The best baseball player to have lived in this era. He can't pitch. He won't be able to pitch for at least another season after this, right? Yeah, it's fucking horrible, dude. It reminds me of the New Orleans Pelicans
Starting point is 00:34:20 or the Indianapolis Colts in terms of like finding generational talents to ruin. Yeah, because you don't want to spend the money on a fucking you know mri yeah you don't want you don't want your medical like is that really what you cheap out are these guys and it sounds horrible but this is nature sports these guys are investments right um if you're running a team that's just the nature of it right you. Don't you want to protect your investment? But I don't think... Maybe the Angels don't give a shit because they know he's not coming back. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:49 But Trout, too. They don't care. Right. They don't care. Send them over to the... You know what the Phillies should do? Like how we had fucking Soto on the plane. Send the Phillies fucking medical staff out there. Offer
Starting point is 00:35:05 to take care of Trout's back and Otani's elbow. We'll pay for it. Yeah, please. Honestly. Yeah. Bring fucking the Millsville Meteor back. Otani, we're waiting for you here in the Phillies.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Come be friends. Yeah. We'll have to have a crash course for callers on cultural sensitivity for the fans. We're all going to be ushered into CBP and be like, all right, none of you are fucking Arab anymore. All right. If any of you says fucking shit about Nagasaki or Hiroshima, you're fucking getting banned from the ballpark. You hear me?
Starting point is 00:35:47 None of this shit. Don't talk about him hitting bombs. They ain't going to fly. You mean fly like the other guy? No. Shut the fuck up. Get that guy. I love the idea of all Phillies attending mandatory cultural sensitivity training
Starting point is 00:36:03 in exchange for Shohei Otani. I'd go to that. I'd have a fun time. Oh, my God. Yeah. I'm into that. I'm into that. William A.
Starting point is 00:36:14 This is some liberal bullshit guy. Watch this Chinese guy tell us about World War I. He's Japanese. Listen, I don't care about how they, you know, you know, how they, they, how they bombed San Francisco. That city had it coming. Dude, they don't even got Walgreens there anymore. Did you hear that shit?
Starting point is 00:36:34 I saw it on the Fox News. Steve Keighley told me that. Steve Keighley. Fucking Steve Keighley. Get the fuck out of here. We'd have to fucking, what's the, a clockwork orange him, the Lovutico technique. Honestly, yes.
Starting point is 00:36:48 Wheel him in with his fucking eyes taped up. With the eyes taped, yeah. Pluto fucking. Do the ultra violent, which is just us showing him multicultural communities. Yeah. It's like the, you know, like a cartoon for when you're a kid it's like people from every

Starting point is 00:37:51 Bob Kelly's lovable. Yeah. Bob Kelly's the weatherman. He's the one who got punched. Yes. In Ocean City, right? I think so. I'm looking at Steve Kelly.
Starting point is 00:38:03 God. Yeah, he's not looking good. No. I think so. I'm looking at Steve Keighley. God, yeah. Yeah, he's not looking good. No, that guy looks good. I mean, he literally is. He's like a... There's been stories about him being an alcoholic for... Oh, yeah? 30, 40 years, yeah.

Excuse me. All right. What's that video of him getting hit with a fucking snowplow? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Should have killed him. You had your one shot. You had your shot, Pandit. You had your shot. The Eagles are back soon. September 10th. That's nine days from now. How are we feeling?
Starting point is 00:39:04 Feeling good? Yeah, feeling good. I think they're going to be... Our friends over in Utah were sad about Brink Covey not making the main team, but he did make the practice squad. Did make the practice squad. I think the Eagles are going to be a good... I think 10 wins is the floor. I think so Eagles are going to be a good – I mean, I think 10 wins is the floor. I think so too. I think they're going to –
Starting point is 00:39:29 I think the solid team are going to be a playoff team. I know – what's his name wants to trade? Forgot to put that in the notes. Barnett? What's that? Yeah, Derek Barnett wants to trade, yeah. He wants to trade where he's going to play more. Yeah, even though he does nothing but rack up penalties.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Yeah. I mean, when he's not doing that, he's a good defensive end. But yeah, Howie, go get a first-round pick for him. Right, please. Please do that somehow. Yeah, I guess, let's see. Schedule-wise here. Yeah, I guess let's see. Schedule wise here.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Yeah. It's bullshit that we get to go from Sunday to a Thursday. I hate that. It's so dangerous for the players. And yeah, we're seeing more injuries now. I saw you put that now. Yeah, I noticed a bunch more injuries in preseason.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Yeah. I fucking hate preseason. I don't think they need to do it, honestly. I don't think they need to do it. Just have training camp. Or do touch, which might be fun. Yeah. You know how to tackle.
Starting point is 00:40:39 You would watch flag football professionally if it was guys like Jalen Hurts. If they did that for preseason w and they'd have fun doing it like yeah yeah yeah just get get themselves like mentally you know get the routes and down in the the block right right right and not have to worry about getting the shit kicked out of your head injuries and shit like that yeah because i'm trying uh what's his name um for the second year the... Why is his name not coming to me? His leg, the same injury, he re-injured it.
Starting point is 00:41:11 He should have retired. Now he's going to have a permanent leg injury. Yeah. Center. Here it again. I can't remember. I got it. This morning. Who was it? Why can't I. I got it. It's warning.
Starting point is 00:41:27 Who was it? Why can't I remember his name? You know exactly who I'm talking about. I do. On the Bucs, I want to say? I don't know. Yeah, I think it's on the Bucs, right? Ryan Jensen.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Yes, there you go. Ryan Jensen. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A season-ending injury. I don't know how many times we'll have to talk about, like, I love football. You love football. We love football. a season ending injury. And I mean, I don't know how many times we'll have to talk about like, we, I love football. You love football.
Starting point is 00:41:48 We love football. You're getting me into college football again. Like, yeah. Like I, I watched fucking FIU versus LA tech. Yeah. Um,
Starting point is 00:42:01 yeah. Why? I don't know why there was a, I guess just cause I'm like, I guess the, the guess the the the sickos committees showed up more in my feed so like take a look at their uh recommendations so there was that zero yard punt yeah vanderbilt yeah it sucks isn't it great but that's why it's great that's why it's great it's because it sucks but man dude life-altering injuries in this sport. Yes, lots of them. At a rate that no other sport, I think.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Comes anywhere close to. Comes anywhere close. Except for maybe combat sports. Yeah. Which you're sort of expecting it, though. Yeah. Yeah. So Ryan Jensen, um,
Starting point is 00:42:46 re injuring his knee. He was out last year. This is going to be a career ending injury for him. Yeah. He's done. Yeah. He's really tough. Yeah. And it sucks.
Starting point is 00:42:56 I worry for like for Kelsey, you know, I'm right. Jason Kelsey is going to be, he, he wants, I know he wants another ring. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:04 And, uh, he's a stud. And so it's the one more thing that gets you. Yeah. And I wonder if there's an actuary out there that has calculated how many years of your life being an NFL lineman takes off. Takes off. It's got to be 15, 20, 30. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Like if Kelsey comes back – he's coming back this year right yeah he's yeah is it this is it like logarithmic is it like right five seasons takes terrifying dude it's 10 seasons takes 20 yeah that's yeah but go birds. So, uh, yeah. Oh, that's sad. Uh huh. Yeah. It's miserable. We're going to play Patriots. I feel,
Starting point is 00:43:50 I feel pretty confident about us beating the Pats. Oh yeah. Yeah. Uh, yeah. I don't know. Do you have anything else to add about football? No,
Starting point is 00:44:00 I don't. What's, oh, when's Temple's first game? Uh, tomorrow. Tomorrow. Yeah. The Owls's first game? Tomorrow. Tomorrow. The Owls are playing...
Starting point is 00:44:07 Akron. Akron. The Zips. All right. If we don't beat Akron, that's going to be pretty sad. We're not going to beat Akron, dude. We're a pathetic team. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:23 But they're not a very good team. They haven't been a good team for a while. I don't know. All right. E.J. Warner, go do it. Good luck, buddy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:33 I think you're as good as your dad, but, you know, we wish you the best. That's OK. We're happy to have you. Yep. All right. Well, we got a couple
Starting point is 00:44:41 voicemails. We got we got one from Wayne and then we got two from Charlie covering the covering covering the union for us. But, yeah, let's listen to Wayne first. Hey, Tom. Yeah, Liam. It's Wayne.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Brought down to him. Just finished with the episode about the college football being, you know, more of a dumpster fire than normal. Me being the Paul Pathetic Rutgers fan, kind of looking forward to this season. Really hoping to just eviscerate Northwestern
Starting point is 00:45:14 off the face of the earth, especially after literally everything that has came out. Baseball season, I'm just straight up not going to talk about that. At this this point I'll throw myself Into the wood chipper for Shohei Otani I really don't care
Starting point is 00:45:30 And go birds Go knights And fuck Northwestern Absolutely fuck Northwestern Is there a Rutgers-uckers northwestern rivalry is that no northwestern's coach uh oversaw a bunch of hazing and didn't do anything about it okay okay yeah yeah yeah yeah that just i remember that um yeah now um oh one thing i forgot to say about otani that thanks for dragging my memory there is uh they should guard in Marino and use his UCL. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:46:05 I agree. I think that's the only way that can really be all by life for life. You know, I like the way you think, dude. Yeah. Well, we haven't had a bleep in a while. All right.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Thanks again, Wayne. So we got two from Charlie on the Union. I know the Union played this week and lost. I feel bad for them. But, yeah, here we go. Hey, guys. Hey, Liam. Hey, Tom.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Charlie from Roxborough. He in. Our beloved Blue Collar Boys are back in regular season MLS action. Went down to D.C., did January 6th brackets union. Beating up on D.C. U3-1. All early goals. Ura and Jack LeBlanc scoring before the 20th minute. And then Danny Vazot getting another penalty,
Starting point is 00:47:07 his 10th goal of the year, as the Union continue to try to climb up the top of the Eastern Conference, trying to get into second place, still behind Cincinnati, who got messied out of the Open Cup midweek and it seems to be happening to everybody. I think Miami also beat New York and the last action wasn't really paying attention.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Still listening to the Sills game as they were pounding. St. Louis is not over the mugshot apparently. It's 12-1 right now. See you guys. We'll be there.

Thanks, Charlie. All right, and then Charlie left another message. I think this one's from Wednesday, so this is this week. I think it's after the Union lost. Hey, guys, this is Charlie from Roxborough.
Starting point is 00:48:17 He, him. Hey, Tom. Yay, Liam. Union played like total shit up in Toronto tonight. Losing 3-1 to the worst team in the conference. Can't do that. Don't do that. Gave up
Starting point is 00:48:33 three pretty soft goals. Got one back by Carranza right before halftime. Just got too much ball watching. Loose ball falling between kind of the defensive lines. Game ended with Jose Bueno getting sent off and Jose Martinez picking up enough yellow cards to be suspended for Sunday against Red Bull ahead of the international break. But, you know, it's still available.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Tickets at Franklin Music Hall for Well, There's Your Problem. Thank you, Charlie. The Intifada podcast and Mindy Def Colt, all together at Franklin Music Hall, September 12th. I'll be there. I hope probably Tom, maybe. Yeah, that's September 12th at Franklin Music Hall.
