But, yeah, we're going to do a reaction podcast today. So this is the Vlodontas. for sock backhand slap uh from a

gecky nozkaya harrende so a little context this is a this is all of a betts done for the 2004 uh Japan series which uh let's look that up real

quick before I comment any further uh I'm pretty sure. Okay. Let's go to

Wikipedia. I think it's the 2024 Japan series. Oh, no, 2004 Japan series. 2004 Japan series or maybe

this is the year before. I don't exactly. Yeah, it was the year before 2003. So I am, So right off the hand, I'm off. So, 2003 Japan series between the

Hukuoka Daiye Hawks, or as they're known today, the Hukuoka Softbank Hawks and the Hachin Tigers. One picked Hukoka and the other picked Hachin. So let's

watch. I don't know if you're going to be hearing one time at but I'll be talking so yeah 2003 Japan World Series Hamana picked Hansin Matsumoto picked the Hawks

and they're making a bet and the bet is well loser against Basu game and is that the Hawks beating the Tigers four games

to three. All right. So they're setting up the Bodsham and then there's the rest of the gang up. And Matsumot's there's

saying everything else. His name's not important. Let's bring him out. Here he is. And love that how about I was wearing a boy scab. Sure. It seems how I said travel far for his Bodu games.

Right. Ring the catchings. fetching Evian water in France from the source. Ganges Sharpie in New York City. Doing Gaki Taeknik with

Matsumoto's mother. And what does my autograph? So here's the Batsu game. He's going to a restaurant that says

Okonomiaki. Okonomiaki for if you're not familiar. It's a, it's kind of like a Japanese a pancake that's full stuff like cabbage and

pork and all that you thought you would win Hanchin Hanchin Hachin Hachin would win I'd speak in Japanese

and what your hand from me is English of course Matsumara brings out the score Sheets and And he's Playing out The home team won every single game of this series.

The home team won every single game. They won because they were in the offense. Yeah, because the home team goes seconds. That means you don't care about the top of everything. Oh, I'm sorry, you only care about the top of things. All right. And then, yeah.

attention to the front back things. So they're going to eat. Oh, by the way, um, as Okonomiaki was only done on one side. Was only

done on one side. So a guy who does pay attention two sides of Japan series was both guys and says Kokonomayaki cooked. He's very

sadistic. And now he's an answer to the bots again. This is the back side So you want to understand I'm going to flip it for you And everything is going to revolve around Ura, Ura, Ura, Ura, Ura
