after new Dennis Evans our KC Sports Anchor will be on the show we’ll talk about the Big 12 or the 7-Eleven Big 12 as I like to call it cuz I’m looking for a sponsor for them um we’re going to talk about the Royals the Chiefs and there’s this proposal that some Congressman or Senator I know Dennis will know other the details about trying to move the Chiefs and Royals out of Missouri into Kansas well you got the Kansas Speedway right there on the Kansas side I mean they got a whole entertainment complex out there you could do it there you go find out about that uh so yeah we’re excited to have him on the show we haven’t had him in a while and uh yeah Brian or I was G to call you but Ryan were you gonna I want to hear your normal voice now uh sure okay when’s the last are you feeling you feel like you might be a little liead I think you got like a little buzz I an was huffing it before she was she was laughing doing the intro to the show and I think she might have been huffing a little that that for the thing that’s great is we have so many rotating people in and out of this show that there’s always balloons in the studio and there’s always time for Ryan’s um helium nice all right Ryan this is actually an intervention episode we want to step in and talk to you about your helium problem uh we usually like to do a comedy clip of the day right about here something funny and uh Ryan found this the other day are you familiar with the Portland pickles they’re an independent league baseball team I am not familiar with Portland pickles bananas yeah we we love the bananas what do you think the Portland pickle mascot is I would be guessing that it is a phallic looking pickle this is correct now I’m going to ask you what this clip is we’re about to show I’m G to give you multiple choices hold on here let me think here uh is it a the pickle dunking himself in a giant bucket of vinegar and coming out as a larger pickle cuz he pickled himself is it a pickle wearing a thong and dancing to sexy strip club music or is it a pickle finding out that it’s a female and having little mini pickle babies on the field between Innings a b or c I really hope it’s not C uh I’m going to go with I’m going to go with a I I like the a idea dipping himself in the vinegar and cuz who wouldn’t really want that to I thought of those pretty quick I was pretty proud that I I fooled him because no it’s b roll it here we go here’s a pickle stripping right there uh it’s stripping to yeah it’s actually stripping to genuine Pony but we don’t have the rights for that oh look at that there’s the thong now you see there’s some children in the stands so I read it’s making it rain uh it’s putting itself through college is what I’ve been told yeah uh that’s that that is the first time I’ve seen a pickle where the uh what was that guy Borat the Borat the Borat deal yeah uh now what I read in the comments is is looks like he need and vinegar yeah got to oil them up they say pickles use vinegar so I looked in the comments and apparently people were like oh there’s children in the stands the game was it said outside for this special game that it was 18 and over 18 and over recommended to go to a minor basball yeah this doesn’t happen out at the ball par with did you come with those things it was what strip City night for them strip City Portland Portland yeah listen did you come up with those three things that quickly I did well I knew the one but I did the other two saying the other two you came up came up pretty quickly that’s pretty impressive I got to give him that I mean that was that was very impressive you know why you know why I can think that clearly I don’t Huff helium I’m always thinking clear I just use God God’s Oxygen’s good enough for me there you go clean and sober on the show just not in your tires I I knew you were going to say I was just G to say I was just R Ryan you I was just going to say uh that exact thing all right uh let’s do lions of the night so Lions of the night Brandon is where we we find a line it could be a clothing line cuz sometimes show City connect jerseys uh that the baseball teams are doing or it’s just a cool stat and uh who’s going you go first you always go first sure sure so one of my picks yesterday and get issues she’s panicking listen at least it’s not just my show that an has issues on that’s I like I like knowing that at least an has issues now hey wait common denominator now I think we [Music] know and all right uh camless an camera listen won’t come on camera what’s your line over the night so in our picks yesterday we would have went 4- one had Keith we tried to do a round Triple Dog round three dog Roundy yeah Three Dog Roundy um and one of my picks that I had leaned on uh that it did wasn’t an official pick but by the time we got to the end of the show we didn’t have time to bet the other one so this one became my official pick and this is the Atlanta Arizona game was the Diamond Backs to beat the Braves um Chris Sale all announced as non-starter right so you if you ended up placing it at the time of the show you ended up getting 50 cents better being that Chris Sale was eventually scratched and moved almost a half dollar um and so so down to their last out Paul sewald blows his third save in the last n in the last seven games for the Diamondbacks the Diamondbacks should be on a nine game win streak um but yeah Sarah Langs likes to do that fun kind of roller coaster win probability chart always going Wii uh but yeah this is uh some fun at seaw Wald yeah he blew that game I know me you and Keith were texting about it watt keeping an eye on it because we had it in this Triple Dog Roundy and he blew it they should he sewald you should take the W out of your name and go as cald because you didn’t get the W you got an L see I made that up too Brandon you can see they’re not all should stop with multi choices hey but it made sense I mean it made sense WL I I get it I even wrote it down seaal I get it I like fun fun at seaw Wald like SeaWorld exactly oh his title was fun at seaw Wald I missed it I usually pay attention to the title I missed it that’s a good one fun with AKA C World which should be shut down get me off my Soap Box all right all right here we go oh God I’m joking I don’t care okay here we go I went to an aquarium in a strip mall here in Vegas yeah do you know about this it’s called like seest SE sequest take the kids all the time yeah it’s unbelievable I think that’s where we’re going for you know you can scuba dive in the mandal bay tank I’ve done it the Mandalay Bay tank you can scuba with Sharks no not doing it I’ve mentioned this on the show Brandon I got my kids in the tank I saw Jaws when I was SI six and I haven’t recovered all you guys in the shark thing I don’t I I’m horrified of sharks I I stay they stay off land I stay at I’ll show you some pictures afterwards all right but anyway there is an aquarium in a strip mall that I’ve been to and you think it’s going to be it’s huge it’s you walk around it’s very odd though you’re in a strip mall you’re like hey should we grab something from uh the Goodwill donation store hey let’s go to an aquarium all right so here’s my line of the night you’ll find this interesting this is a a representative in is it Idaho Iowa Iowa I get them confused Iowa id id idah they flyover states he was uh former player and um so they had some injuries the Sous City team and uh he’s the Iowa State Representative JD Schon so he came out and he pitched and he pitched like uh four Innings of like two-run ball he’s 44 years old that’s real yeah that’s real yeah the guy the the the state representative was at the game they said hey they call before the game like we need yeah they called him in is that like I don’t know if he was left or right I don’t know I don’t want to get politics in the show come on thank you I’m not even snorting heing sniffing what huffing is the

be Philadelphia oh that’s a sad one okay anyway ladies and gentlemen you already did the terminal that was there yeah terminal terminal was good enough uh we sometimes check in we haven’t done this in a while Ryan on this day in in sports history on this day in sports history I just look sometimes and something pops up and this one popped up and it’s timely since we’ve been talking about the All-Star Game are you baseball fan who’s your team uh whoever Chris or Jimmy tell me I need to root for when when you were working the Super Bowl you were working the window writing tickets and I go hey who you R for in the game Brandon maybe I could relay it on one of the cuts we were doing you’re like whatever team the casino needs I said tell you I’ll tell you soon as I close my window when I Clos my window so anyway the allstar game in 2002 was played today uh July 9th so 22 years ago and this is the infamous tie game huh yeah it tied there was a tie ball game in the All-Star game so what happened this game was played in Milwaukee where Bud seelig the then commissioner of baseball yes on the Brewers and what happened was it went no one score in the ninth no one score in the 10th the teams were out of pitchers and the million dollar billion dollar owners of baseball probably chimed in or picked up a hotline and so we can’t continue this game or so Bud SE like walks on the field and tells the managers talkes and they called the game called the game I I don’t remember that one if you wants to that would be something I thought I would remember but yeah anybody that bets on an All-Star game kind of like the idiot that bets on the Allstar race in Nascar it’s it’s you go right ahead I asked Chris I I texted Chris to get a little insight I’m like so what happens on that game if you better decide to win he goes you get your money back push money back he goes yeah I remember it he goes it was the dumbest game of all look at that 7 seven and they awarded no MVP so they couldn’t even give an MVP to the and they couldn’t do that now because don’t they that who wins the All-Star game now is who gets the home field advantage or whatever well no they stopped that a couple years ago they finally stopped that well this was the reason they made that rule for a while was because they went well the All-Star game’s meaningless they just called it a tie so then they instit well yeah but then they instituted what you’re talking about the winning League gets HomeField Advantage for the World Series and then they realized that was too much pressure on an All-Star game it’s supposed to be fun and uh who do you have picking up who in that picture Ryan uh Barry BNS and I forget oh it’s Tory Hunter yeah that’s the catch was that in that game yes it must have been okay so took that picture off he’s he’s right now going yeah no but me remembering that famous moment is Tory Hunter I’m almost positive it’s like I produced Barry Bond h a long shot Tory Hunter go glove outfielder from the Minnesota Twins goes over the fence and pulls it back and since it’s an All-Star Game Barry Bonds went over Roid Rage picked him up and threw him on his shoulder Roid Rage I’m assuming he was never convicted but his head grew four sizes and he had more back KN anyway so there’s he picked up T he picked him up like a sack of potatoes and Tory Hunter’s probably I don’t know how much is the center fielder away 230 210 220 220 Ryan what are you what are you not that heavy nothing anyway it ended in a tie ball game so there we go that was stupid uh all right so well when do we have Dennis scheduled I just so we know when 12:30 12:30 okay so we got some time so I feel like we should sound the horn Poss I should have Brendan do it right yeah okay I was waiting for again the helium’s got her well she just ate she’s tired you know you carb up and you’re like uh so anyway we do posts with punch lines where we scy the internet and find some great videos but we play uh the post sound where the hores you know so you have to call for the horn would you like to Sound the Horn Sound the Horn an there it is there go that means it’s time for post she does that faster with you too like on my show it’s like you say something and you got to wait who what well no she she actually has this program all she has to do is touch the p is that right I think we have another what were you saying R I think it’s a it’s another team on the desk and team behind the glass oh yeah see they oh no we’re all one family what are you doing this Vinnie she’s stealing thing they showed her though she went on camera well she’s directing it she there you go smart lady um you know before we go to the post and this one isn’t imp post but we want it can be a post so uh this guy Alex bman won the race last week in Chicago did you see this Bowman Bowman Bowman Bowman Bowman uh did you see what he said after the race can we show the clip of Alex Bowman talking about what he’s going to do oh yeah the bman he’s going to drink some damn Bourbons it’s going to be a bad deal I’m probably going to wake up naked on the bathroom floor again again so it’s not the first time that it happened uh but he celebrated uh but way to go Alex that uh listen probably gained some fans right right there I know right I know that’s now the name I’m rooting for him Frank now knows who Alex Bowman Alex Bowman is I just call him Alec B Alex B when when you come on gone race in a couple weeks we’ll we’ll do a little class first I’m believe but I just love that that was that Chicago race that there was the rain and it’s yep they can’t they just keep having races in the rain and then this week uh the racers are in uh they’re at the Poconos yep going to Poconos now I looked at the power rankings I see Kyle Larson’s number one I know that name I don’t know if you agree this is Pat D’s Power Rankings he has Hamlin 4th Chase Elliot third Tyler reic second Kyle Larson first do you have any feel for that race uh listen Pocono is one of probably one of the scariest moments of my entire life in a race car okay what happened uh that I drove for Roger Pensky when we turned 11,000 RPM now Folks at home you your car at home says 4500 6,500 NASCAR normally turns eight back in 2004 I drove for pensy we turned 11,000 like absolutely frightening how a like the whole thing’s just shaking apart like my car last night when I blew out going down the front straight away and the biggest fear when you go into turn one at Pocono is God I really don’t want to blow up because you’re looking at like a 90° corner it’s just you’re looking at a straight way and it goes this way wow and I blew my motor going into turn one at 11,000 RPM and I did everything I could to back that sucker in as hard as it was going to be hard and I uh oh you want to back into the yeah I want to hit back first back first first I don’t want to look at it I don’t want to see it and I blew my motor going into turn one I got it to turn a little bit where I was able to actually slide it back in at the exit uh but yeah scariest thing Pocono is Bad to the Bone and Kyle Larson should be the uh the power rank absolutely Kyle Larson’s on fire one of the greatest race car drivers uh you’re you’re witnessing to be serious for a second you are witnessing one of the greatest talents a generational Talent there this is not a guy that’s winning because he’s hendrik winning because he’s got the best car the best team the best crew chief any that he is winning because he is flat out one of the greatest drivers you’re ever going to see and we’re witnessing what can do in any form of racing absolutely phenomenal is he like the max verstappen of NASCAR I I I would put him up against VX verstappen and say that in unless he got to Formula 1 where Max has all the computer a [ __ ] uh you you he would probably beat Max in seven out of 10 driving styles that there are did they go shirts and skins for that if they go head to-head skins might be a little tough in our in our world in a race car yeah that might be a little little rough so Alex Bowman Bowman damn it Alex Bowman celebrated with bourbon What would do when when you want a race what would you celebrate with really oh no City Light Shine baby what can somebody fill him in he’s working at the South Point now can we fill him in what is it is it Whiskey my liquor company oh oh I didn’t own my liquor company then though so I didn’t I didn’t party with that uh what is City Light is it a whiskey or it’s a moonshine it’s a moonshine you want some I can go to the bar get something damn that’s how we’ll close the show Punch myself with the freaking mic right there I you know I don’t have a car oh no I’m on my vest well I was going liquor sickle that’s what it’s there for that’s why you have it liquor sickle I love that uh but by the way pet you can catch gone racing here on our South Point Studios uh every Thursday at 11: 10 10 a.m. except when we change it it’s 11 10 times uh and and this is exciting news that I don’t think we’ve talked about on the show but we are uh we’re going to do like a set redesign here right we’re going

are you kidding me they look great I’ve been watching highlights all week those are from 2005 yeah maybe you should stop drinking maybe you should stop being gay hi I’m Drew and I’m a Chicago sports fan hey Drew 108 years of Misery all for one week of happiness and with this Bullpen now it’s just like what did I do to deserve this if I didn’t have my dad Skybox I wouldn’t even go to a game I got you buddy Hey where’s the Bulls fan oh he’s still stuck in the [Music] 9s did somebody say the ’90s so yeah it’s a it’s been a great time that guy’s great that was great yeah Johnny Gil what’s his name Johnny Johnny Gil is from U new uh New Edition yeah there you go uh all right so check him out he was funny that was good stuff he does a lot of those videos but it is it’s been a brutal year for you right now yeah I didn’t realize white socks were 29 and like 60 26 and 67 yeah yeah that’s what it was yeah they uh yeah they’re not good that’s impressively bad yeah that’s like really impressively bad and they’re probably gonna be well they are going to be sellers at the deadline so imagine they set they they get rid of their best players how many games they’re going to lose in the second half if they get rid of crochet and Luis Robert Jr and Carlton Fisk ises he still play there yeah is he still there Caron F I don’t know who else was there there’s a lot of players comedy three you do two real ones you throw in a third fake one what was that Ryan uh Eric fedy could be on the trade block Michael copc could be good if he’s really on on another roster Paul dang Paul D I I’m very I have a lot of Jena great P great P great P we’re dating our the you know what great pan is Kaden yeah do you remember the commercials pardon me do you have any exactly that’s that was like a thing to do anytime you were out that’s right with buddies and being stupid all right so uh your team the Cubs not great my team’s not great well they’re not very streaky though they’re better than the Cubbies yeah so no Crest too high and no trough too low am I missing is that a SpongeBob reference no that is a na those are nautical terms on waves crest of a wave and a of a wave and the Pirates are on ships so thank you for making me explain the show was a good one I know my dad was a Navy man I should have got that all right uh so yeah the Pirates have gone 50 games without having a three-game losing streak or a three- game or more than a three- game win streak or a three-game losing streak they’re still beating the white socks and the Cubs it looks like yes yes just not in a consecutive spin they are the second team in Major League Baseball history uh to go 50 plus games without having a streak longer than three games huh yeah and it’s funny cuz the announcers I mean obviously I watch probably 99% of the games and the announcers are constantly saying hey we just got to put some wins together we get two no we’ll never get three we don’t lose too long I it’s it’s a frustrating season if they make a move to the dead how many games are they played right now on the streak uh it looks like a 90 no like right where are they at right now um in the standings no one or two games right now because if they’re at two I’m going to go bet against them oh uh yesterday they won they beat the Mets yesterday one win in a row or two no lost on Sunday so it’s one so I got to wait so I’m going to bet I’m going to wait till they win two and then I’m going to go bet the farm on but I got to tell you they’re in Milwaukee starting tonight and they do not play well against the Brewers who are the first place team they’ll win one and they’ll lose the next probably yes this is probably wait till Paul pitches he’ll win and they ain’t going to lose three in a row I mean they the numbers don’t lie there see uh I to bet uh let’s see Joey B is Joey’s a big fan from Chicago right or no he’s from Colorado yeah uh Frank will need a shot at Jameson to chase the Moonshine down I don’t think I will because the moonshine’s probably really smooth very smooth everyone on this show thinks I drink Jameson every night because at the Christmas party I had a b a shot or two I had a shot or two at the Super Bowl yeah and then two but I didn’t get on my liquor sticker my liquor Slicker liquor Snicker you’re you’re going to be on the liquor sickle driving home because cuz I ain’t going to change your tire for you trying to remember if I left the parts to change the tire in the yeah okay there there’s the bad tire in in the back the donut on the back yeah the story got worse Folks by the way I said why don’t you just change it I mean come on you’re a man I mean I assume I assume you’re a man I’m assuming here I know we shouldn’t do that but that’s why we have the desk up you’re you’re a man and and he said well because the spare is on the other side right the donuts on the I want to tell you my grandfather my grandfather ran out of gas and always had a Ford Bronco ran out of gas right had a big had carried a a five gallon Jerry can on the back of his and my grandmother look said Well Jack idiot get out and you know pour the the gas can in he goes I would birdie but I used that yesterday it’s a true story my grandfa used it yesterday oh my god um yeah I I can I’ve look the the silver lining in this is I can change a tire in 15 minutes say I can it’s you got that’s why sitting at another casino that we used to owns parking lot with a flat tire cuz he can change flat well that was the close it was either Rio or that so I went to the Rio you don’t know it’s there’s I just wanted an open space okay plenty at the Go Coast uh yeah sorry yes there is uh let’s see any oh btown dummy is watching I I don’t need btown dummy watching this show right my best friend Christian who all he does is rip on me okay where were we Ryan what’s next on the post with punch we’re gonna bring Dennis Evans in in a few minutes right yeah he just texted okay good we maybe after picks do at 1240 okay Ryan what’s next buddy uh so we were talking talking baseball going to the Yankees who have been really struggling uh but this struggling woman thinks she has the plan to fix the Yankees at thead are having a horri I’m here to fix the New York Yankees everything’s fine first things first I’m going to need everyone to calm down the 2019 Nationals were 49 and 43 the 2021 Braves were 45 and 47 and the 2023 Rangers were 53 and 3 that’s interesting similar to us not going to be blindly optimistic we need some help first thing we are going to address is the bullpen take the starters out of your head they’re not going to go get another starter Tanner Scott is going to be one of the most prized possessions on the market in terms of a relief pitcher P Fairbanks I could see them getting from the Tampa raised and at the very least he will give us great Clubhouse interviews or you could go for David Robertson who has experience playing in New York we like him over here I’m not really concerned about them spending big on a relief pitcher because Matt Blake masterclass he can turn anyone into a great pitcher are we going to get a big bat probably one of the cheapest on the market right now would be Matt Chapman if the Giants sell Reno I would love but at the same time they did just put him on the 10day I he’s having a fantastic season there is just no way the Rockies are going to give him to us but Ryan McMahon is also an option we are really hurting without Stanton right now and hopefully when Dominguez comes back that gives us another really good option for a big bat in the lineup a lot of teams struggle to start the season and a lot of teams bounce back after the All-Star break and at the end of the day guys it’s right in front of us honestly they’re going to be fine thank you for coming to my T yeah so she was she was quoting Boon by saying it’s right in front of us he said that each of the last three seasons oh yeah that’s right he does I you know the whole time I’m watching the only thing I’m thinking of and I had loaded up as a joke here is how come she doesn’t have a New York accent and said that during the video and I stole her joke but I’m giving her proper credit because it bombed that was A’s joke but it was true I mean if she’s a big New York fan You’ be like what are we doing hey we need to get a picture come oh I almost s an F bomb see this what happens you talk New York I almost make the board I am not on that board officially yes you are you could be on the board three times realistically is it just F bomb or did did the did the poopy comment from earlier account it’s just F bomb okay got it’s just F bombs okay we don’t mind we don’t mind that uh okay we don’t mind we don’t mind we just keep track the thing okay once again Dad I was never here yeah exactly this is just AI you know how we did the Tom Hanks thing we did a Tom Hanks we Brendon gone an AI thing never uh all right I see L we get away with the dirty at 12:30 in this building if my father ever heard what happened at the dirty at 12:30 and you want to hear the best yes never a complaint right have not had one complaint for dirty at 12:30 but we had a lady complain the other day that the Spazmatics played I’m turning Japanese oh because it song’s about self-gratification no she didn’t know that she thought it was just racist because it was Asian making and she had no we had to explain to to Ryan gry the general manager me and Mike lonat the entertainment director that I’m turning Japanese you know that it’s it’s kind of like Frankie Goes to Hollywood relax it’s a show about a certain shebop by Cinder as well so we we and Ryan goes it’s not about you know right he goes what song We turning the vapor the vapor and he goes and she’s mad that it’s it’s culturally right in appropriate and I said hey let’s tell her to go to the dirty at 12:30 one night and see how it works wake her up there uh make sure you come to the dirty at 12:30 Friday nights and by the way the Spazmatics who I’ve seen they are phenomenal there it is it’s 12:36 so the sound is sounded sound is sound sound is sounded it’s a live show uh so we do picks at 1236 Brandon I we we don’t want to throw it on you but we usually do a pick here on a game Ryan do you have anything for today for our fans um I don’t have an official pick but I do have a stat from Brookgate who I did uh accidentally forget to put his Twitter credit Brook but so he has a chart of teams versus starting pitching that are right-handed or left-handed so if you look at today’s matchups the ones that actually have an edge are the or Orioles against the Cubbies is he expecting me to be able to see that right now that’s why I’m so you don’t need to see the whole chart I’m just gonna try and give a little the today’s today’s actual like sides um so the Orioles are 41 and 23 with a 641 win percentage against right-handed pitching they are facing the Cubs who have a right-handed pitcher and jamus calion the Guardians are fifth best against right-handed pitching 35 and 26 and they are facing uh Kenta MAA who has a 671 ER for the Tigers uh the Yankees are kind of split on both sides Carlos rodone going for the Yankees left-handed pitcher who the rays are actually one of the best teams in baseball facing left-handed pitching and the Rays have a right-handed pitcher on the mound in Ryan pepo um so that one’s kind of split sides but just know that there’s both teams are clashing on that um the Red Sox batting against right-handed pitching are not or I’m sorry are the sixth best team in baseball 36 and 27 with a 571 win percentage uh they are facing the A’s in Joey Estus who had a really good last last time out pitched the Maddox the last time he was out uh but he does have a 439 ra on the season and then the Dbacks are really bad against left-handed pitching they are 13- 17 and they are going against Chris S who is the best pitcher in Major League Baseball the last month of year yeah the Dbacks are B against left handers unless it’s the Dodgers in the postseason and Clay Kershaw’s on the mound they’re the best team in baseball and I bet Clayton Kershaw on that made a nice little donation here at the South Point um yeah so let’s let’s just parlay all of those teams tonight and see what happens I don’t know uh my pick you know what I I’ve been uh I was 13 and four for a while it’s about 13 and 10 now I think I’ve had six losses in a row I’m going back to the Cleveland Guardians tonight uh I don’t know if we have the box up but I like the Guardians tonight I know trust me I you know but could you guys please explain to brenon when did they do that two years ago tells you how much I pay attention apparently to but thank you for I I I’ve had a really hard time I have slipped and said the old name of the Cleveland team but they’re in Detroit uh tonight Blake Lively’s pitching oh wait Ben Lively sorry I wish it was Blake Lively uh against MAA so does this pan does work out for the Cleveland then thank you red panda yeah I know but you didn’t point out that that was going to be my pick no I was pointing out but that was a little red pish but I got a lot going on here look at this got a lot going on UM multitask I do like Cleveland tonight so take the Guardians I have to pause when I say Cleveland guardians Guardians but I like the Guardians on the road they’re about Buck 45 I think uh so yeah Cleveland’s my pick got to get that 14th win here’s what happened I’ve been stuck on 13 wins for about a week or so I was 13 and I was on fire then six so I got to get 14 13 bad luck number speaking of fire yeah who’s been on fire an and gone racing uh someone’s leading season 33 units I’m up this year oh I

that sign uh Dennis lot going on in KS City we are over 100 days that this is overdue there’s no late fees uh Dennis last time we talked with you we were we’ve actually talked about instituting them I refuse uh we were we were uh we were going to talk to you live from the Super Bowl parade and obviously uh some bad things happened there and you were there live um so we’re glad to see you obviously for that reason but uh the parade was a joyous event Chiefs won their second Super Bowl in a row uh but anyway thank you for being with us and I know you were there for that so that must have been a rough moment yeah yeah it was it was definitely rough one it’s like you’re in the middle of this celebration and it was you know kind of a cold crisp morning we’re out there and you know we our our station one thing I’m really glad about they they whenever we have something like that they Supply security for us so we’re out there and the security guy you know we hear at the end of the parade this kind of popping noise and I’m assuming they’re setting off fireworks and this security guy who’s an off duty police officer said no that that’s gunfire that’s gunfire and he kind of pulled us off to the side and just saw all those people running in our Direction it’s still like you know when I go past there right now it’s still like PTSD it’s just that was just such a crazy traumatic experience and it’s you know since then they’ve had different events down in that area so it’s let people know you know you can be out and be safe but it still stinks that you know that parade to celebrate such a you know amazing accomplishment back-to-back Super Bowl championships was you know and someone lost their life in that so I mean it was it was a crazy day but you know Kansas City is kind of regrouped moved on and you know they’re yeah they’re ready hopefully to see you know if Chiefs can get back and maybe win another Super Bowl and have another Super Bowl for that is highly likely highly likely now let’s switch gears and talk to baseball because it is the summer the Kansas City Royals are surprising a lot of teams uh Bobby Whit Jr signed that big contract and he’s been worth it the guy has been spectacular he’s in the Home Run Derby uh we’re big fans of his here now I know they take is it the I70 you take to get to St Louis is that right n 70 straight down straight down so they’re playing the cards but uh what’s what is the feel around town about the Royals after so many years down I mean they had to rebuild after the World Series but what’s the what’s the vibe with the Royals in town and here’s the thing we’re not talking down he he was talking Mendoza Line before like they were like way below the Mendoza Line we’re talking about a team that was losing a 100 games on a regular basis they’re coming off of last year where they had the most losses in team history in franchise history and then to come back they came back during offseason they made you know some key moves they brought in some V and they they really focused on chemistry and I think one of the things that you know Bobby Wood’s been playing you know so good to have salvi behind the plate you know salz behind the plate and how well he’s been hitting the ball but then I think the biggest key to all of this has been what Seth lugo’s been able to do on the hill I mean he has just been you know 11 wins is best in baseball I mean he has just been playing Amazing you know over over this course of this season I think people around Kansas City are kind of more like about time they want the you know they love the Chiefs but they want the Royals to be good they want them to be a good team so I mean I think people are so excited but there’s also this Co cautious optimism because Cleveland came in I was going to call him the I do all the time it’s the way we were raised it’s so hard it’s so hard not to it is it’s impossible Guardians came in here and and the Royals beat him in that series and you know they’re they’re they’re tops in the AL Central so I mean they have won some good games but then it’s seems like they play down to the level of their competition and we saw that when they went out to Colorado we saw that in several series if they can get to where they play well against good teams if they can get to where those series that you’re supposed to win they win then that this is definitely a playoff team yeah I I listen I grew up in the 70s uh watching baseball Frank White uh Dennis Leonard Larry gura George Brad of course and Willie Wilson who by the way is is today the 9th or the 10th is today the 10th it’s the nth it’s it’s Willie Wilson’s birthday it’s Willie Wilson’s birthday Willie Wilson turned 69 he was one of my favorite players because he’d hit that ball on that carpet at Kaufman stadium and he would get he had like double digit triples all the time he was just so fast I love watching him play so I have I have I I have an affinity for those oral or those Royal teams because they always played the Yankees and I hated the Yankees and they beat them and uh but anyway then the uniforms are still classic and uh here’s what I want to talk about Kansas City we’re talking about the Chiefs and Royals there’s this uh this propos that I’ve seen about trying to move them out of Missouri into Kansas and it’s it’s gaining steam or what’s going on with that cuz I can’t see them leaving that would be horrible what a dis I mean the whole thing’s been a disaster and ironically you know Frank White’s tied into that because he is the uh County Executive for Jackson County here in Kansas City I think just what happened and I covered it like on a regular basis I think the Royals and the Chiefs they have a 38 Cent sales tax that they’ve been getting for the longest time to take care of the cost of the facility ities they have and everyone knows you know you have the Royals on one side of the parking lot the Chiefs on the other side and it’s the sports complex out here well the Royals wanted to leave and they wanted to go into downtown Kansas City to get their own stadium right but they were still linked with the Chiefs on that sales tax so what they did was they put that before the voters of Kansas City and just pretty much assumed it was a given that the the Chiefs would get the money and they’d be able to rehab Arrowhead and fix some things up around in that area and take over the area where the Royals are the Royals would get a downtown Stadium but the Royals picked an area of downtown where people really didn’t want them it’s an Arts District and they kind of bogarted their way in and it didn’t go over people were like No And I think everyone was shocked they didn’t put they assumed it was a done deal they assumed it was going to be no you know no big deal and when people voted it down it really caught them off guard I would be very shocked now Kansas has Gam money they have these bonds that they can do to try to attract teams over to where the racetrack is so their goal is to try to attract the Royals and the Chiefs in that area if if I was a betting man which I am I bet there’s no way in the world the Chiefs ever leave Arrowhead Stadium exactly that they’re going I believe the Chiefs stay at Arrowhead and they get that fixed the Royals I can see leaving Jackson County and going to another area W now how far is that proposed move I’m just I don’t know the the geography just just for a perspective it would be like maybe where like sandboy stadium was say kind of like it’d be the equivalent to going to to where sand so it’s not like you’re leaving the area okay so you’re still in the metropolitan area you’re talking no more than like a 20-minute drive it’s where the racetrack is there’s a casino out there Sporting Kansas City plays out there so it’s not really you know from the outside it’s like oh my God they’re leaving the area it’s not like even the ners to Santa CLA it’s it’s really you’re talking a 20 minute drive from where they are right now oh okay all right that when you see move you’re like oh my God it’s going to be this big dramatic thing no it’s like no it’s just just kind of moving to a different side of town that’s it okay do you have anything Ryan yeah yeah so we had mentioned Bobby W Jr uh earlier uh but Bobby W Jr is the only player in Major League Baseball history to record at least 60 home runs 100 stolen bases and 25 triples within his first 400 career games and he is now participating in the Home Run Derby Dennis do you think that he has a chance to win the Home Run Derby and there’s only five of the eight announced was there anybody that you would want to see him go against no no one I really want to see him go against I’m always just I mean Bobby’s a slight guy I he he can hit home runs but you know I both know when you get in those home run competitions the bangers the guys who are the true bangers have a tendency to win those and I when I look at his frame I look at his makeup it’s one thing to be able to catch a you know catch the right pitch and knock it out of the ballpark but to be able to just over and over and over swing and and I’m just not a big fan of I mean I like the Home Run contest but at the same time if I’m on a team I don’t really like it when one of my teammates gets in the Home Run competition because I feel like you mess up your swing you’re just a he’s just not a big enough guy to me to go out there and compete in the Home Run competition so I I don’t honestly predict a really good performance for him I think he’s a good batter but not in that to me not in that context yeah Pete Alonzo is the guy you like the big guy with the forearms and the strength and the legs he’s usually he’s also won it twice before exactly he knows B yeah it Alec bom leads the league in doubles right now so it’s not looking like he’ll be he’s gonna hit a lot of Gap shots that’s it’s good it’s solid solid contact uh we’re going to talk more about the Home Run Derby tomorrow when Greg vau is here because uh yeah we we there’s a CH we got a bunch of stuff to show and talk about now we want to talk about the Big 12 uh there’s 16 teams now and the Big 12 media day is happening right as we speak over uh here in town in Vegas and Ryan and I are going to go over tomorrow and and mess around and get some video to bring back but how do you feel about the Big 12 you got K Kansas and K State correct um do you have an allegiance do you root for one of those teams or where did you go to school no no my my my team I’m a Missouri Tiger guy and Missouri left the Big 12 which which you know it’s so funny when we in my head I’m thinking we’re talking Big 12 I know this I start like getting my Missouri notes and then it hit me it’s still hard to believe that they’re not I’m old school I I’d go back to the big eight if I could I mean I’d like just the original conferences it it’s almost like you really have to study every year just to know who’s in what conference I had no look at that Arizona I mean you got Arizona State BYU in the Big 12 it just doesn’t I mean I get what they’re doing UCF you have all these teams that are kind of from all over the country and I know they’re doing whatever they have to do to keep it all together I am happy to see Colorado coming back to the Big 12 that’s one of the things that I’m really happy to see Colorado come back they’re one of the original teams but KU is a a school and K State has done the thing uh Avery Johnson the quarterback from Kansas State amazing guy he’s versatile he can run the ball he can throw the ball had you know he started towards the end of the year for them and I think people who haven’t seen him yet he’s going to be one of those guys that that could very early on kind of catch everyone off guard and getting the Heisman Race by being he’s really that spectacular and the same with the quarterback Daniel for uh Jaylen Daniels who’s from uh KU really good guy they have taken advantage of using the nil and being able to get in good football players and what their coach has been able to do to take them from a a nothing a nothing School in football to a legit going to a bowl game and being in the top 20 every year is is amazing what he’s done at uh what Lance liel has done at k you yeah and Ryan and I are going over tomorrow and that is the Press day for Dion Sanders correct yeah so uh we’ll see what you see what Dion’s got in store tomorrow so that we’re gonna have some fun over there he doesn’t like to talk a lot yeah he he doesn’t like to draw attention to himself or have an Entourage coming in with them very humble guy very very humble guy uh let’s see um so still still sticking with it they so with the new teams joining the Big 12 uh Colorado Arizona State Arizona and Utah Utah had their mascots driving down the Las Vegas Strip uh headed to allegian Stadium New Kids on the Block nice that now is that legal are you allowed to drive oh there’s not the mascot’s not driving no Elvis is driving oh El well of course you you come to Vegas you get El of course that’s there’s a there’s a setting on Uber you can do XL Uber black or Uber Elvis here in Vegas and that would be great right to get oh my God that would be amazing to do that uh anyway you know there’s someone driving around in Las Vegas that’s ubering with an Alvis out it’s you know that’s happening and getting the biggest tips ever I’m I’m sure I had an ex-raider drive me around once and I can’t remember his name he was a lineman he was big scary guy but he was talking about ly Alo in the past uh really nice guy so we know you’re a bet man you mentioned it do you have any action on today have you looked at the games do you bet on the Royal St Louis series not I apologize I was out on the store and didn’t get a chance to really look so when I give out information I like to give out solid information so I don’t have any solid info for today but I I I will say if looking forward I would I would take K I would take KU or K State to win the Big 12 a futur to win the Big 12 there you go a futures for one of those two to be to win the Big 12 and and also whatever the number is they put on Colorado for wins I’m going to go under that transfer portal yeah it can be your friend fall apart it can also be your enemy yeah I mean he just set himself up for failure with that 4-0 5-0 start I’m keeping receipts and then the losing streak against the good teams I know look those games were huge rating hits for networks but I I enjoy watching it because I mean I kind of roote for Dion I don’t know I I do but also people I want see him do well it’s just hard to bring that those guys together the way that he has especially offensive line it takes the longest to put together an offensive line and you know the chemistry on offensive line and defensive line is where everything starts and that’s where he’s had the most turnovers so I mean if those guys pull off a miracle and like really gel but if they don’t when you have that kind of expectation and the spotlight that’s on them guy guys just now there’s no hey we’re going to work through it they just start jumping Shi and they’ll leave in the middle of the season so this could either surprise us all or this could really turn into a disaster out there all right Dennis when you were a kid last question um who were your Idols growing up in in sport Maybe baseball football basketball who are your Heroes growing up you know what I’m I’m going to be honest about it I’m be 100% honest sugaray Leonard oh yes sugaray Leonard Tony Dorset oh and OJ Simpson okay like though that was that those were like my that’s who I just loved I loved watching you know everything about OJ watching him play I love Tony Dorset and what sugaray Leonard in the Olympics doing the you know where he turned to Each corner I mean that was Miss that time of the that time of the Olympics Sugar Ray was my favorite boxer again that’s when HBO started SC HBO or it was HBO back then that showed boxing Alexis aruo and all these middle Tommy Hearns Marvin Haggler I was such a Sugar Ray fan because he was the flashy cocky guy and my buddy loved Haggler so when there was the Haggler Haggler Sugar Ray Leonard fights we’d watch him and then we’d fight for an hour or two afterwards saying who won because I was like Sugar Ray won the fight they didn’t get pagler down oh my God we still did this day my buddy mik o day we still argue about it but uh very good one one of my highlights of being in Vegas was a meat and sugaray out there I mean it was one of those moments I went around the corner I was like give me just a second and I just took that moment and said suar Leonard’s around the corner and it just I mean I it I I don’t have freakout moments cuz we meet you know I meet so many athletes in interview but being in the room with sugaray I had to go around the corner and just like imaginary tell everyone that I knew that sugaray was on the other side of the wall and I walked back and I think he heard me but still it was oh man that that would be a big one for me too the detached retina and coming back and the Roberto Durant fights huge Sugar Ray Leonard fan uh the best uh Dennis you’re also the best we appreciate it um is there social media we can
