95. St. John’s Runs Out of Answers Against Duke

St. John’s made Duke work for it, but the Red Storm’s season came to an end in the Sweet 16. We break down where the game slipped away, how Duke’s zone changed everything, and why the lack of a true point guard felt like the biggest issue when it mattered most. We also check in on the bracket standings and who still has a shot to win the pool.

Elsewhere in the episode, LeeJay sounds off on the backlash to lower speed limits in school zones, we react to one of the strangest crime stories you’ll ever hear, and we get into a completely unplanned conversation about BBLs at the gym. Then we shift to baseball and talk Mets opening day, the atmosphere at Citi Field, fan behavior, and whether the whole experience lived up to the hype. We also touch on the Yankees and the report that the Pirates turned down a huge prospect offer for Paul Skenes.

William Hernandez
Greetings and salutations, and welcome back to Two Dummies That Just Watch, a sports podcast between friends. This is episode number 95. I am one of your hosts, Will Hernandez, and I am here this week with my other co-host, Mr. Lee J. Perilla.

00:00:24.73
William Hernandez
Sir, what's going on? i feel like I haven't seen you, but I just saw you on fucking Thursday for opening day. What's going on?

00:00:32.35
LeeJay
Howdy. All is well, especially in the college basketball world now that Duke and St. John's is gone. Hallelujah.

00:00:40.60
William Hernandez
Fuck off. Fucking troll.

00:00:47.15
William Hernandez
BJ's trolling today. He's been trolling for the past the past couple of days. um How was the rest of your weekend? Did you see any movies this weekend?

00:00:59.70
William Hernandez
I feel like you're seeing a movie every fucking weekend.

00:01:03.41
LeeJay
when I did go to the movies, but I'm trying to remember the day because I went with my two youngest.

00:01:08.39
William Hernandez
What you go see?

00:01:09.66
LeeJay
They will kill you.

00:01:11.71
William Hernandez
Oh, I've been here. Oh, how much of that can you say about what what that's about, what I was giving you?

00:01:17.80
LeeJay
Whatever you see in the commercial exactly what the movie is.

00:01:19.80
William Hernandez
Interesting, okay. Yeah, I haven't, that's been um that's been making the rounds a lot lately, I feel like. A lot of people are talking about that.

00:01:29.46
LeeJay
Yeah, exactly what you see in the commercials is exactly what the movie is.

00:01:29.78
William Hernandez
So,

00:01:33.27
William Hernandez
did you say, did you?

00:01:33.40
LeeJay
it really It really is. There's no crazy storyline. There's nothing to follow. What you see is what you get. It's very simple. Either you're going to like it or you're not.

00:01:41.43
William Hernandez
Right. That sounds like a very different than when I went to go see Project Hail Mary a couple of weeks ago now. um That was really good.

00:01:53.66
William Hernandez
I will say one thing about that about that movie, and i and i it's my only complaint, and i'll and I'll tell you quickly why, because I almost had a movie theater experience like you did um a few weeks back, in in a way.

00:02:09.08
William Hernandez
Because I think the problem with the one minor nit that I have with Project Hail Mary is that they kind of... everybody It's not a spoiler. There's an alien in it, right? The guy meets an alien.

00:02:22.30
William Hernandez
And there was no way they were going to hide that fact in the movie. It was impossible to do. In the book, it's a surprise, right? When you're reading a book, it's like oh, shit, you know? The problem is that they kind of almost...

00:02:35.87
William Hernandez
Framed the movie as a kid's movie in a way. So what happens when I went to go? I went, it was a Saturday. It wasn't this past Saturday. It was two Saturdays ago. And I went to like an early, like a 3.30 showing.

00:02:49.50
William Hernandez
And I was a little surprised with how many kids were in the theater. And I guess it just, word must have spread about the alien character kind of being...

00:03:02.61
William Hernandez
kid friendly. But here's the problem though. There's a couple next to me and the kid's got ants in his pants. Right? It's like he said you can't say still.

00:03:10.74
LeeJay
What's kids? What do you say is kids? What's the ages?

00:03:13.27
William Hernandez
Oh, we're talking. It was one kid. It's probably, i don't know, maybe between seven and nine years old. You know, and it's just like, i mean, I get it.

00:03:24.47
William Hernandez
It wasn't, it wasn't really that distracting, but it was also like the kid couldn't stand still sitting on the seat, sitting on his dad's lap, sitting on his, on the, on the mom's lap, you know?

00:03:37.56
William Hernandez
Um,

00:03:37.93
LeeJay
Sounds like me and I'm 48.

00:03:39.38
William Hernandez
yeah It's just like fucking distracting, you know? It wasn't terrible. But it was also like, ah come on, man. this is not This is not really a kid's movie, though I i get it.

00:03:52.01
William Hernandez
It'll be different.

00:03:52.15
LeeJay
<unk>s Here's the problem. these These kids, and I noticed this through my son and when he was younger, now he's 13, he wanted to see it. We just didn't get a chance to see it.

00:04:00.62
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:04:01.08
LeeJay
um Him and his friends, they were talking about it. They already knew what was the movie about, whoop what what they were going to show.

00:04:06.94
William Hernandez
Interesting. Interesting.

00:04:08.73
LeeJay
And even kids younger than him, i think kids have different interests now.

00:04:13.72
William Hernandez
Yeah, it's weird.

00:04:13.82
LeeJay
And

00:04:14.36
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:04:16.41
LeeJay
and I could just hear it. Sometimes you hear it on the radio with these hosts and they talk about their kids. Their kids are young, but they're interested in these things. And you're less like, I was never interested. It's just a different world, I think, in what they're interested in and, you know, what they want to see and what they want to do. That's just what I think it is.

00:04:31.35
William Hernandez
No, I think you're right. And I think because we have so much access to information now and I saw so many fucking reels heading into the movie about the movie and like kids are on social media and they're seeing that. So, But it's like, it'd be much different. So Super Mario Brothers comes out on on on Wednesday, right?

00:04:48.70
LeeJay
I'll be there on Saturday.

00:04:49.88
William Hernandez
Yeah, I was gonna say, when I go see that movie, I fully expect children to be there.

00:04:50.84
LeeJay
i already got my tickets.

00:04:56.98
LeeJay
i would hope so.

00:04:57.78
William Hernandez
Yeah, you know, like, I already had the attitude, like, yes, there are gonna be kids in that movie theater. I was not expecting that when I went to go see Project Hail Mary.

00:05:09.21
William Hernandez
But it it is it is what it is. I will say, I was looking at... um I'm going to be going to the movie theater a lot in the next several months. Between that, between He-Man, between Supergirl, there's a new trailer, Spider-Man.

00:05:23.64
LeeJay
Spider-Man.

00:05:25.24
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:05:25.90
LeeJay
There's a new mummy move her up mummy movie that I know melisa want i knew Melissa. I know Melissa that she wants to see.

00:05:28.95
William Hernandez
Yeah,

00:05:30.56
LeeJay
I want to see that too. We're into horrors.

00:05:32.66
William Hernandez
yeah I'm not really... Is that like a remake of the of the Brendan Fraser one?

00:05:36.54
LeeJay
I don't know. I don't. It looks like some they lost their girl and they found her eight years later and she's all effed up.

00:05:43.82
William Hernandez
Oh, so it's like...

00:05:44.06
LeeJay
She looks like, I don't know if she's died already, I guess, and she just looks possessed or something like that.

00:05:44.34
William Hernandez
Oh, interesting.

00:05:49.14
William Hernandez
Okay.

00:05:49.81
LeeJay
That's kind of the gist I got of the preview.

00:05:51.77
William Hernandez
Oh, so they're basically going a completely different route with that one.

00:05:54.07
LeeJay
It looks like it's totally, yeah, it so it looks like that, because those Brendan Fraser mummies were garbage.

00:05:58.30
William Hernandez
Yeah, they were they sucked. Yeah, even the one with the rock sucked.

00:06:03.16
LeeJay
I didn't like them.

00:06:03.81
William Hernandez
They were garbage. They really weren't garbage in retrospect. but um But yeah, there's there's definitely... I do...

00:06:11.18
LeeJay
Matter of fact, I'm going, I'm actually, I think we're going to the movie some Small 2.

00:06:15.59
William Hernandez
Are you serious?

00:06:16.44
LeeJay
I think so.

00:06:17.56
William Hernandez
What are you going go see?

00:06:17.78
LeeJay
We're going to see Ready or Not, Part 2.

00:06:20.50
William Hernandez
Okay. Yeah. I do want to see that Michael Jackson movie. That actually looks really good.

00:06:25.63
LeeJay
Oh yeah, that comes out in April.

00:06:26.69
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:06:27.74
LeeJay
I think April and May, I'm not sure.

00:06:27.83
William Hernandez
um It's in April. Yeah. so next I mean, it's in April's couple of days. I think I might actually take my mom to see that because I think she saw the Broadway show.

00:06:38.88
LeeJay
I heard that was good.

00:06:39.80
William Hernandez
Yeah. So I'm going to see... I'll see her on Sunday. I'm going to see if she wants to go see... Wants to go see that. I got to take her to a Mets game, too. Just FYI. So maybe... Maybe we can all go see my brother.

00:06:55.93
William Hernandez
I got figure out a Saturday. She won't go unless it's a certain temperature. And I don't blame her.

00:06:59.89
LeeJay
That's fine.

00:07:00.66
William Hernandez
So...

00:07:01.19
LeeJay
Same thing with Melissa. She's not going with me until the temperature gets 70 and above probably, which is fair.

00:07:04.73
William Hernandez
Right? Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I think maybe... um Because our birthday is in June, so maybe ah I'll look at the schedule for June. I think they're actually...

00:07:14.30
LeeJay
I will say this moving forward. I know it's so our thing about going to these Saturday games, but I think what we need to start doing is waiting the day of and just buying tickets because

00:07:23.52
William Hernandez
because of the weather. Yeah. Yeah.

00:07:27.73
LeeJay
besides I had to do something and something came up Saturday,

00:07:29.82
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:07:30.78
LeeJay
I did something in the morning. I was i was i was fucking cold.

00:07:34.33
William Hernandez
yeah

00:07:35.58
LeeJay
And I was like, damn, if I would have went to this game, I would have been just an old man complaining. I just know it.

00:07:40.57
William Hernandez
yeah it Yeah, bro.

00:07:40.70
LeeJay
And I'm not ashamed that I'm just like, as I get older, I can't sit in the stadium. And as much as I love baseball, we can know it could get boring. And you're sitting in freezing temperatures watching a game that's moving like pond water.

00:07:52.59
William Hernandez
It was... Yeah. Yeah.

00:07:54.47
LeeJay
ah

00:07:55.03
William Hernandez
Yeah. I gotta say, I was surprised that Danny wasn't complaining more about that game on Saturday. We'll get into that a little bit later on.

00:08:04.93
LeeJay
It has to be more calculated moving forward because these temperatures suck.

00:08:06.81
William Hernandez
yeah a little bit later on Well, here's the problem. Don't start the fucking season in March.

00:08:12.54
LeeJay
Yeah, that's not going to.

00:08:12.86
William Hernandez
I mean, that's...

00:08:13.58
LeeJay
Yeah, that's the problem is, is that if you start it later, it goes into later and it's going to be cold in ah in the back part of it.

00:08:18.06
William Hernandez
That's the... Yes. Right. Yeah.

00:08:21.30
LeeJay
I think you're going to I think you're prone to getting better. i don't even know how to phrase this. Better cold days at the beginning as opposed to the end.

00:08:29.57
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:08:29.72
LeeJay
Because Sunday, my friend told me today, my coworker, he went to yesterday's game.

00:08:30.94
William Hernandez
I see what you're saying.

00:08:33.89
LeeJay
He said he was still cold, but he felt a difference from Saturday.

00:08:35.71
William Hernandez
But it wasn't bad, though. Yeah. Yes. Yes. I agree. Yeah.

00:08:39.51
LeeJay
So if you get low 50s, you may still be cold. But at least if you're in the sun and you can strategically buy your tickets to be in the sun for whatever is available the day of and then do it like that.

00:08:48.12
William Hernandez
Right.

00:08:52.41
William Hernandez
we were we got We got lucky in opening day.

00:08:52.57
LeeJay
So. Yeah,

00:08:54.74
William Hernandez
We really did.

00:08:55.70
LeeJay
yeah because that usually doesn't happen either.

00:08:55.80
William Hernandez
because it was Yeah, it was almost 75 degrees. Jesus Christ.

00:08:59.94
LeeJay
I'm sitting out there in my t shirt.

00:09:01.72
William Hernandez
Oh, God. We'll get into that a little later on because Lee J has some views on opening his first opening day.

00:09:10.26
LeeJay
Probably my last

00:09:10.39
William Hernandez
Oh, I've got theories. I have theories on what was going on that day. And I think and we'll talk about it later. But I think there are some things happening with the fan base right now that it that is very that is very strange.

00:09:27.48
William Hernandez
Sir, i um I know you mentioned to me earlier today that you want to talk about your great boss, the great...

00:09:33.66
LeeJay
Well, my boss is myself, for those that don't know that. I'm my own boss. But yes, the mayor the mayor of New York City, Mom Domney.

00:09:39.25
William Hernandez
You know what I mean.

00:09:42.95
William Hernandez
You know what I mean.

00:09:45.05
LeeJay
I just wanted to, because the outrage of people, even some coworkers I have, the outrage I see on the internet, and Mel and I, we had a conversation and then she called me down because I was...

00:09:45.41
William Hernandez
Wow.

00:09:48.93
William Hernandez
I know where this is going.

00:09:58.87
LeeJay
I was bothered by it by how many people were bothered by this and what they think they're doing. And I don't think it's that. And you probably heard about him trying to, I guess, pass something to drop the speed limit down to 15 in like school zones.

00:10:12.82
William Hernandez
Oh, no, I didn't know about this.

00:10:14.10
LeeJay
Yeah.

00:10:14.62
William Hernandez
Okay, this is not where I thought this was going.

00:10:15.48
LeeJay
if you google it it should cut it should it should If you Google it, it should come up.

00:10:18.26
William Hernandez
Okay, yeah.

00:10:19.64
LeeJay
let Let me know if you see it.

00:10:20.70
William Hernandez
Yes.

00:10:21.72
LeeJay
I guess say my nominees, 15 mile per hour zone, school zone something. I don't know how will you phrase it. Something like that.

00:10:29.69
William Hernandez
I see it right now.

00:10:30.23
LeeJay
I don't know if it's past yet or they're trying to do it.

00:10:30.37
William Hernandez
Speed limit. Probably trying to do it. Yeah.

00:10:35.41
LeeJay
And I'm just looking, I don't comment on these things, as you know, I'm not gonna go back and forth with people. It doesn't make any sense. But I did talk to a couple of co-works who are like, not that they were furious, but they were like, oh, we might as well just push our cars, or we might as well just... And listen, guys, for those that don't know my story, I may be a little bit more sensitive to it because I was hit by a car crossing the street.

00:10:58.04
William Hernandez
Yes.

00:10:59.42
LeeJay
Okay? We laugh about...

00:11:00.09
William Hernandez
Only once, right?

00:11:00.70
LeeJay
Yeah.

00:11:01.37
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:11:01.62
LeeJay
Once.

00:11:01.65
William Hernandez
right

00:11:01.86
LeeJay
Just once.

00:11:02.36
William Hernandez
Yes.

00:11:02.66
LeeJay
But it's almost happened quite a few times.

00:11:03.96
William Hernandez
It seems like it happens once a year.

00:11:06.07
LeeJay
Right? So I'm a little... i have PTSD crossing the street. I do. I don't... i I'll admit that. Trust me. That guy was not going but maybe 20 miles per hour.

00:11:17.24
LeeJay
And I ripped something on my shoulder. And whatever, whatever. I can't really talk about it, but that's what happened.

00:11:23.87
William Hernandez
I found it, by the way, from the New York City website.

00:11:24.92
LeeJay
Right? So...

00:11:26.69
William Hernandez
Gov.

00:11:28.09
LeeJay
I don't see how this is a bad thing for the people that drive in this city that rip it up the street at 60 miles per hour in a school zone.

00:11:33.49
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm. It's crazy.

00:11:35.86
LeeJay
I guess i guess people people feel like they don't want to be outraged until something happens to them or somebody that they love. Why do we have to wait for that?

00:11:43.15
William Hernandez
Right. Right.

00:11:44.86
LeeJay
Obviously, there's something going on. I see it every day. I hear it every day. I'm sitting in the living room. You you know, my living room was right by the street.

00:11:52.44
William Hernandez
Right by a school.

00:11:52.86
LeeJay
Right by a school.

00:11:54.23
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:11:54.90
LeeJay
And there, once they turn that corner, so from that corner to the next corner where there is a stop sign is maybe 300 feet, maybe.

00:11:54.97
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:12:03.93
LeeJay
Three to 400 feet. And as soon as they turn that corner, they hit the gas. Like it's the runway.

00:12:09.37
William Hernandez
Right. Mm-hmm.

00:12:09.78
LeeJay
And you hear them on the corner.

00:12:13.27
LeeJay
Why? if a kid darts in the street, and I'm not saying... They shouldn't do... they should They should be doing... Kids don't pay attention sometimes. An animal. Whatever the case may be, you never... For people to be... I i saw one person... Oh, or they're just trying to set us up to give us more tickets.

00:12:33.69
LeeJay
Bro, if you just follow the the law and what the speed limit is, you'll be fine.

00:12:38.68
William Hernandez
Exactly, That's

00:12:39.50
LeeJay
Why are you going up 60, up a 15, or even a 25? Because speed limit now is 25 in these school zones and stuff.

00:12:42.92
William Hernandez
interesting.

00:12:45.72
LeeJay
I'm not mistaken, right? So...

00:12:47.53
William Hernandez
I'll have to check. Yeah, go ahead.

00:12:48.31
LeeJay
So what, since the de Blasio, right, he did a project, what was it called? um Oh my God, what was it what was it called?

00:12:54.25
William Hernandez
I know what you're talking about. So it's actually, okay, this year NYC will roughly about 100 at school too.

00:12:55.80
LeeJay
I forget the name.

00:13:02.14
William Hernandez
So there are there are two. Some have 20-mile-per-hour school zones and how some have 25-mile-per-hour school zones.

00:13:08.34
LeeJay
Right, and this was de Blasio, I think did that, something zero, I think it was called.

00:13:09.22
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

00:13:14.65
LeeJay
Bro, I could, i like I said, I got hit at that speed. I could have met, I'd be dead if I would have got hit if this guy was like flying down the block.

00:13:23.70
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm.

00:13:24.82
LeeJay
When you want to do, go to the highway. I just don't understand what's the, I don't understand. Like, i really don't understand what the problem is. I really don't. And I'm trying to defend the guy because he's taking a lot of heat. And listen, whether I like him or I don't like him, it's irrelevant. I live by right is right and wrong is wrong. And I think this is 100% right. And I hope it goes through.

00:13:43.45
William Hernandez
Yeah, well, it's it's almost like there's been a big controversy up here in Orange County about they are finding more and more people are zooming past school buses that have, like, the stops on.

00:13:53.40
LeeJay
And you can't you're not supposed to do that on both sides.

00:13:54.57
William Hernandez
And you're not supposed to do that. Yeah.

00:13:56.44
LeeJay
Whether you're going in the opposite direction where the bus is stopped or you're behind the bus, if the stop sign is out, you have to stop.

00:14:02.58
William Hernandez
You have to stop. You absolutely have to stop. And guess what?

00:14:04.42
LeeJay
it's the same thing with It's the same thing with Mr. Softy.

00:14:06.46
William Hernandez
Right. those buses Those buses have cameras on them.

00:14:10.34
LeeJay
Yep, and you'll get you'll get bagged.

00:14:10.68
William Hernandez
You know, and you will get back.

00:14:11.78
LeeJay
They'll send you the ticket.

00:14:12.51
William Hernandez
Trust me. So, you know, it's it's almost the same thing because I'll go on the, ah you know, I follow the Orange County, whatever, Facebook page. And, you know, you'll see there was a thing two weeks ago about how we're seeing this more and more. And we're pleading with people to please obey the law and slow down.

00:14:30.14
William Hernandez
But, bro, you see the comments, people complaining. And I just feel like so you're OK with hitting a kid.

00:14:33.84
LeeJay
I just don't, yeah. So, yes. Yeah, I don't i don't want, it or you, God forbid, there's black ice in the street. Now you rear off and you, I i don't understand.

00:14:43.15
William Hernandez
Yeah, right.

00:14:45.98
LeeJay
like Yeah, i can't i I can't explain it, man. I remember mc crossing the street one time. Well, Mel, we almost got both hit. This was in the old in the old neighborhood and there used to be a stop sign on on the next corner.

00:14:54.06
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:14:56.57
LeeJay
Sometimes you cross, you have to stop sign. You assume people are going to stop. They're not. You have to swatch both ways now.

00:15:02.31
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah.

00:15:03.35
LeeJay
And this guy slammed on his brakes. He had his window rolled down. Bro, Mel ah verbally attacked this dude. I stepped back. I said, only way the only way i'm getting involved is the guy steps out his car.

00:15:14.90
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:15:15.93
LeeJay
She was F-bombing this dude, you piece of garbage.

00:15:16.10
William Hernandez
Exactly.

00:15:19.21
LeeJay
baba Can't you F and read? Your mother sucks. bypa poppa pop pop poppa Bro, he just rolled up his window. I guess he put up his hand or something and he just kept on driving. I don't understand why is this a big complaint for, and it's funny that you texted me.

00:15:34.54
LeeJay
It's a nice summer day and you hear people speeding outside.

00:15:37.67
William Hernandez
Bro, it's unbelievable, dude.

00:15:37.87
LeeJay
I'm like, it's almost like as if he knew what I wanted her to talk about, but up there as opposed to here.

00:15:40.89
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:15:43.82
William Hernandez
Bro, because my office has the window. i mean At least for the past three hours, I've been hearing two cars.

00:15:50.94
LeeJay
And that's a long ass block that you live on.

00:15:52.41
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah. And you know what they're doing too? They're going around. They're going down the drive. You know the drive that heads down to the waterfront?

00:15:59.51
LeeJay
Yeah, i know.

00:15:59.95
William Hernandez
Because I can hear it. I can hear them revving. I can hear them revving the fucking engines. And it's like, bro, really? It's 70 degrees and we're going to act like fucking 12-year-olds?

00:16:07.85
LeeJay
Like animals, he thinks he's Vin Diesel in Fast and Furious.

00:16:08.66
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's fucking ridiculous. And trust me, tonight, at night, I guarantee you, if I have the window open, I will hear them on the bridge. Because the bridge is right there.

00:16:19.77
William Hernandez
And I hear it all the time. People fucking speeding on that fucking bridge, bro. I'm like, okay.

00:16:24.50
LeeJay
Listen, like ah like i tell like I told Mello, we had a conversation.

00:16:24.54
William Hernandez
I hope...

00:16:27.30
LeeJay
I said, whether you hate the guy, whether you love the guy, i don't this has nothing to do it. i'm just talking about this.

00:16:32.42
William Hernandez
Right.

00:16:33.88
LeeJay
And I'm happy that he's doing this and i know and I hope it happens.

00:16:34.66
William Hernandez
Right.

00:16:36.20
LeeJay
And here's the thing, just because he implements it doesn't mean that people are gonna do it because they're probably not.

00:16:40.63
William Hernandez
No, they're not. Yeah.

00:16:43.03
LeeJay
So if you get a ticket because now you feel 15 miles per hour, you're not even moving. So the minute you go over like 16 or 20, whatever, I don't think it's gonna be, it's gonna be like if you go 10 miles per hour or more over the speed limit, you'll probably get a ticket.

00:16:55.54
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

00:16:56.95
LeeJay
I just don't know why we're crying about this and we're so outraged about this when there's so many other things we could be outraged about.

00:17:04.76
William Hernandez
I think it's because it's him. i mean, it's the same thing with Trump. You know, Trump could do something good and nobody will admit admit it because it's him. It's the same thing here. This is actually a good thing. Like, hello, you shouldn't be going more than whatever miles per hour in a school zone.

00:17:22.26
William Hernandez
So,

00:17:22.81
LeeJay
Like, come on, man. What are we talking about here?

00:17:26.28
William Hernandez
yeah, I mean,

00:17:26.55
LeeJay
I just don't, I don't, I don't understand, man. I just wanted to mention that real quick. Cause it, it bothered me. And he was just taking verbal, verbal fire or online. I'm just like, are you, you guys are serious, right?

00:17:37.14
LeeJay
This is, this doesn't even make, this doesn't make sense.

00:17:37.49
William Hernandez
No, they're serious. Yeah.

00:17:39.66
LeeJay
I guess it it'll take you. cra It's the same person that doesn't pick up after his dog. And then he steps in his shit with his brand new Jordans and he's mad.

00:17:48.91
William Hernandez
Yes.

00:17:50.55
LeeJay
Like, come on, man.

00:17:51.26
William Hernandez
ah

00:17:51.54
LeeJay
What the hell? i i don't what I don't know. Whatever, whatever. like I said, I can't deal with stupid people, but whatever.

00:17:56.95
William Hernandez
Yeah, and this and this wasn't even a thing that got... This was something that didn't have to be voted on or anything. They announced this March 16th. basically the press releases like New York City Mayor Zoran Kwame, I didn't even know what his middle name, Mamdami and New York City Department of Transportation Commissioner Mike Flynn today announced that the NYC DOT, Department of Transportation, will reduce his speed limit to 15 miles per hour at every eligible school location across the five boroughs.

00:18:24.89
William Hernandez
And this is not even happening right now. By the end of his first term, the move is designed, because you've got to change the signs and all that. That's going to take time.

00:18:31.94
LeeJay
Yeah, you got it. You got to do you got to do Yeah, you guys, there's a lot that goes into it.

00:18:32.63
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, the move is designed to protect children and their families on city streets and represents the largest increase to date in the city's use of Sammy's Law.

00:18:43.38
William Hernandez
i don't know what that is, to reduce speed limits across the city.

00:18:45.10
LeeJay
I'll be somebody that got hit and killed recently or something.

00:18:46.94
William Hernandez
But up at wellpe apparently this was this has been happening since under ah the other idiot.

00:18:47.06
LeeJay
I don't know. I saw that too. I just didn't look into it.

00:18:54.63
LeeJay
The Blasio or Adams, the Blasio Adams.

00:18:55.51
William Hernandez
Yeah, Adams. It started happening under Adams, yeah. And now they're just expanding it.

00:18:59.26
LeeJay
But here's my thing, too. People think, and he possibly could have, but there's people that pick up their kids from school. They go to their local you know political wherever.

00:19:09.94
William Hernandez
Yep.

00:19:09.98
LeeJay
They complain. They make phone calls. He's getting he's getting these these letters, these calls. That's part of it, too. It's not him just saying, you know what, I'm going to do it at 10, 15, whatever the case may be.

00:19:23.29
LeeJay
These parents are complaining about it.

00:19:25.04
William Hernandez
Right. So just to to go on, the city has so far lowered speed limits at just over 100 locations since the passage of Sammy's Law in the spring of 2024. So this was happening before he got into office, so.

00:19:41.27
William Hernandez
You can't really blame him, you know?

00:19:44.68
LeeJay
It's just people don't take their time just, I don't know, just do a little bit of research. Even on the block, like if I'm working from home, you know, the kids are let out around here to cross the street, 2.30. You see them. They're double parked, but they're school buses.

00:19:57.75
LeeJay
The school buses can't really go down the block. You know, my block is narrow, so they got to wait there for the kids.

00:20:00.28
William Hernandez
Yeah, it is, right. Honking

00:20:03.00
LeeJay
Bro, there's a line of traffic. You know what they're doing?

00:20:05.31
William Hernandez
their horns.

00:20:05.81
LeeJay
They're honking their horns.

00:20:06.90
William Hernandez
Yeah, I'm not surprised.

00:20:07.21
LeeJay
And I want to go outside and I just want to throw something at them. I was like, guys, you don't see the pig yellow bus over there. You like, what are you stupid?

00:20:19.64
William Hernandez
Yes, that is it.

00:20:20.95
LeeJay
My, like, what? ah

00:20:24.34
William Hernandez
That's it. That is exactly it.

00:20:27.09
LeeJay
My God, bro.

00:20:29.18
William Hernandez
By the way, the the mother of Sammy, Amy Cohen,

00:20:29.38
LeeJay
Yep.

00:20:32.38
William Hernandez
In 2013, my 12-year-old Sammy was struck and killed by a speeding driver in Brooklyn. And ever since, I've been fighting for safer speeds on our streets.

00:20:40.18
LeeJay
There you go. So this has been around since then, and she had and I guarantee you these this woman has lost sleep hoping that this would pass.

00:20:48.52
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:20:48.90
LeeJay
We're talking about 13 years later.

00:20:51.56
William Hernandez
Yeah, it's fucking crazy.

00:20:51.99
LeeJay
it just It dropped in increments, but maybe we're finally at a speed to where she's comfortable with because her daughter was struck and hit by a car and killed. Come on, man.

00:21:02.94
William Hernandez
i think um I think that one of the issues here, and I'm looking at the press release now, because now I'm getting a full scope of this. I think this is might be what triggered people, maybe. i don't know if they were smart enough to read the press release, but NYCDOT will continue to explore additional opportunities to roll out lower speed limits across the city in the months ahead.

00:21:14.10
LeeJay
No, they weren't.

00:21:24.57
William Hernandez
That could be an issue, I feel. Because the traffic is already kind of slow enough and in some ways, but... I can see how people could be ah a little bit...

00:21:34.61
LeeJay
These rules want to be implemented if you follow the original rules.

00:21:38.20
William Hernandez
That is true. That is true. I agree with that.

00:21:40.11
LeeJay
It's your own fault. We all see it driving in New York City. These people drive like maniacs.

00:21:47.02
William Hernandez
Oh, they don't care.

00:21:47.74
LeeJay
They don't care. So you know what?

00:21:49.05
William Hernandez
They absolutely don't care.

00:21:50.52
LeeJay
You know what? I wish you reduced the speed limit to zero.

00:21:56.98
LeeJay
Do like the world's strongest man. ti around Tie a rope to your car and pull it up the block. Go away.

00:22:04.96
William Hernandez
Holy shit, dude. do you Do you think this armless, legless killer can pull a car?

00:22:10.97
LeeJay
Oh my god.

00:22:14.89
LeeJay
I'm trying to figure out he how he shot somebody if he's unarmed.

00:22:21.41
William Hernandez
fucking guy. It's funny because i was reading. There was a story in The Athletic, okay? I had this. ah Here's the story from March Let's read some of this because it's fucking hilarious.

00:22:35.22
William Hernandez
For those who, well, um let me just read it. ah Dayton James Weber, a quadruple amputee who played in the American Cornhole League, faced his first and second degree murder charges after being arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of a man in La Plata, Maryland, approximately 40 miles south of Washington, D.C.

00:23:01.96
William Hernandez
Weber, 27, was held in the Albemarle Charlottesville Regional Jail in Virginia on Monday, according to online records, but is expected to be extradited to La Plata, where he will face charges. According to Charles County Sheriff's Office news release, police in La Plata were flagged down Sunday night by two people of the in the area of La Plata Road and radio stationer.

00:23:27.29
William Hernandez
The two said they were in the backseat of a car and told police they saw Webber shoot the front seat passenger, Braderick Michael Wells, 27, after an argument.

00:23:38.94
William Hernandez
After the incident, Webber stopped the vehicle and asked the passengers who knew each other to help pull the victim out of the car. The witnesses refused, exited the car, and fled the scene. Webber then left the scene with the victim still in his car.

00:23:54.55
William Hernandez
Yeah. This shit's crazy, dude.

00:23:58.95
LeeJay
I really wasn't trying to laugh at this because someone lost their life.

00:24:01.76
William Hernandez
No, you're not.

00:24:02.59
LeeJay
I'm trying to do better. But I'm trying to figure out how you let this dude with no arms and legs. Pull out a weapon. Do whatever. And then blow your brains out.

00:24:13.46
William Hernandez
So I will say, did you see the videos of him? Like, I guess like training and shit.

00:24:16.63
LeeJay
No, I get. I seen him. He was climbing.

00:24:18.50
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

00:24:20.09
LeeJay
But I don't want to do this. But I saw him climb. Listen. from what this guy has done with his life, because he's been like this since he was a kid. I think he had like some kind of infection or something I was hearing. So he's been like this for a long time.

00:24:33.11
William Hernandez
Yeah, he's adapted.

00:24:33.34
LeeJay
And he's made apparently quite a life for himself being, you know, cool you know, learning how to be a cornhole champion and be like the master at it with no, you know, you know what i'm saying?

00:24:34.15
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:24:42.42
LeeJay
So because I couldn't imagine living without arms and legs, right?

00:24:43.77
William Hernandez
Sorry, I'm just laughing at that. Yes.

00:24:48.09
LeeJay
I say that to say this, you ain't climbing up a ladder faster than me, my man.

00:24:53.96
William Hernandez
Right.

00:24:55.29
LeeJay
this so This is how my my mind works. I'm trying to let people in.

00:24:58.42
William Hernandez
Holy shit.

00:24:59.23
LeeJay
So I'm trying to figure out, you have no digits. So everything you grabbing is like this.

00:25:05.69
William Hernandez
Yes, right.

00:25:06.08
LeeJay
I'm trying to figure out, well, you do you have some kind of mechanism already on on the trigger?

00:25:09.75
William Hernandez
He must. Yeah, he has to.

00:25:11.03
LeeJay
The way you, what what are your nubs?

00:25:11.23
William Hernandez
He must. Yeah.

00:25:12.66
LeeJay
you you You could press it and you touch. There's no other way to think to think. There's no other way to say it.

00:25:18.12
William Hernandez
What are your nubs?

00:25:19.68
LeeJay
Like, could you hold in a gun like this?

00:25:22.10
William Hernandez
Right. Yes, that's yes, yes, yes.

00:25:23.19
LeeJay
you You know what I'm saying?

00:25:24.57
William Hernandez
Yeah, there has to be something. Yeah.

00:25:26.71
LeeJay
I didn't see that. Apparently they said there's a video out there. I didn't really want to see the video. i don't I don't really care. I've seen people with disabilities, no arms, and they could drive a car because there's different mechanisms that they have where they could just press down or something like that on the gas, on the brake.

00:25:36.23
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm. Yes. Right.

00:25:40.94
William Hernandez
Right. Mm-hmm.

00:25:42.22
LeeJay
There's a way they can operate the car.

00:25:43.82
William Hernandez
Right.

00:25:45.51
LeeJay
I'm just trying to figure out how this guy pulled out a gun and shot this guy and he let him and he let this happen.

00:25:47.86
William Hernandez
Holy

00:25:51.61
LeeJay
Bro, you had to be like the Flash, this guy.

00:25:53.64
William Hernandez
shit.

00:25:55.48
LeeJay
on the On the trigger that that he that this happened and the two guys, the people the two people in the backseat just watched this happen?

00:25:57.98
William Hernandez
you stand

00:26:03.32
William Hernandez
I wonder if they were so shocked at what was happening that it didn't register. Maybe. That's the only thing I could think of.

00:26:12.15
LeeJay
Oh my God, like what?

00:26:15.13
William Hernandez
That's the only thing.

00:26:15.24
LeeJay
i'm just trying to I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to, I'm more about the like the the speed of what happened.

00:26:20.28
William Hernandez
Yes.

00:26:20.40
LeeJay
That's more of what i'm I'm trying to figure out here.

00:26:22.10
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah. Well, we should have watched the video.

00:26:24.31
LeeJay
I don't know, man.

00:26:25.50
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:26:26.02
LeeJay
it's so I don't want to watch the video. I'm good.

00:26:29.17
William Hernandez
I'm watching training. Bro, what I saw like a bit of the video.

00:26:30.92
LeeJay
It's just...

00:26:33.39
William Hernandez
It's like he's in a fuck in the woods. Like doing a fucking, nah yeah, okay.

00:26:36.47
LeeJay
those videos Those videos I saw, because that wasn't that had nothing to do with the um with the with the what happened in the car.

00:26:42.39
William Hernandez
No, no, no, right. But it's, yeah.

00:26:42.94
LeeJay
I'm talking about him climbing the ladder, and he was like he was on the gun range, shooting, doing this, doing cornhole.

00:26:46.36
William Hernandez
Right, yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:26:50.97
LeeJay
But um i just I just don't know how this guy pulled this off.

00:26:54.09
William Hernandez
Holy shit. It's going to be a a fucking fascinating trial. I'll tell you that right now.

00:26:59.90
LeeJay
I mean, this guy, i don't remember his name. He was a world-class sprinter, I think. This was... Damn, when was this? I can't his name. But I think he had no legs, though. But he had arms. He wound up killing his girlfriend or something.

00:27:10.82
William Hernandez
Oh, yeah. He had um he had trust yep yeah prosthetics.

00:27:12.28
LeeJay
But he had arms. But, yeah, I mean, yeah he had prosthetics. So that I could see.

00:27:15.38
William Hernandez
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Yeah.

00:27:16.95
LeeJay
You know, you can still walk. You can still with hands and stuff like that, but it's prosthetic.

00:27:19.29
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah.

00:27:20.93
LeeJay
But you can still do the same thing can do with a regular hand, I'm assuming, right?

00:27:23.64
William Hernandez
Yeah, yes, yes.

00:27:24.25
LeeJay
This guy has none of that.

00:27:25.98
William Hernandez
Right.

00:27:26.46
LeeJay
ah I don't know, man. its's It sucks because somebody died. But I don't know, bro. It's wild.

00:27:35.71
William Hernandez
don't, I, I just, I, I, again, it's going to be a fascinating fucking trial because it's like, how did, how did we even get to this point that an argument happened and the, the solution was, I'm just going to kill this fucking guy.

00:27:49.94
William Hernandez
You know, that's what I don't understand.

00:27:52.78
LeeJay
I'm wondering, um I'm also wondering like if these two people were in in the back, what happens after that?

00:27:52.92
William Hernandez
so

00:28:01.24
LeeJay
Like you just don't drive your car off a mountain or into the water or something with this guy's body in it?

00:28:01.37
William Hernandez
Sir, i don't...

00:28:08.25
William Hernandez
And the thing is, I'm reading the rest of the story. that got He basically put the body in the in the fucking yard. Like, he didn't try to get rid of it or anything.

00:28:16.66
LeeJay
i wonder, what was there an argument? Not that I'm trying to make an excuse. I'm just trying to figure out like what happened here.

00:28:20.28
William Hernandez
no, no. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

00:28:25.30
William Hernandez
Yeah, dude. I don't... fuck It's fucking crazy.

00:28:26.79
LeeJay
I wonder if people in the jury are going to be like, it's this there's no way this guy shot this guy. found out impossible. He needs to show me that. Because what's to say wasn't one of you guys?

00:28:33.43
William Hernandez
Well, there are videos of him doing you know shooting guns and stuff.

00:28:37.27
LeeJay
Oh, ah doing it. Yep.

00:28:38.82
William Hernandez
Yeah. So it's it's it's very fucking...

00:28:40.70
LeeJay
With the guns or him? them There's a video of him shooting the guy?

00:28:43.23
William Hernandez
No, no, no. There's a video of him shooting guns. So it's...

00:28:45.27
LeeJay
Oh, oh yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:28:45.56
William Hernandez
it's Yeah, yeah.

00:28:46.75
LeeJay
They could. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:28:48.02
William Hernandez
I think that'll be enough to fucking, you know...

00:28:53.14
William Hernandez
You know what my...

00:28:53.24
LeeJay
I think they would try to put the timing together, too.

00:28:55.96
William Hernandez
You know what my...

00:28:56.34
LeeJay
trying look at the video, see how quick he was compared to compared to in a smaller enclosed area.

00:28:57.69
William Hernandez
Right. Yes.

00:29:01.50
William Hernandez
Right.

00:29:02.81
LeeJay
Trying to figure it out.

00:29:04.28
William Hernandez
can i Can I ask you something?

00:29:05.40
LeeJay
No, you can't.

00:29:06.39
William Hernandez
how do you think they How do you think they check for fingerprints in this situation?

00:29:09.22
LeeJay
Oh my God, yo.

00:29:09.62
William Hernandez
Oh,

00:29:11.80
LeeJay
No, we're not. Let's go to the next thing here. You have something that you want to talk about.

00:29:17.50
LeeJay
Maybe, maybe they there's an exception for him. They give him a fucking a dick print.

00:29:22.59
William Hernandez
come on, sir.

00:29:23.32
LeeJay
It was him.

00:29:26.36
LeeJay
I don't know, man. It's fucking weird.

00:29:28.29
William Hernandez
Oh, God. So i've been I've been trying to go... been trying to be better about going to the gym later, lately and being more consistent. I've, I've, I've had some struggles lately, just physically. I'm not going to get into it. Nothing serious, but you know, there are some nagging things that I'm dealing with right now, but you know I've been going, you know, the goals, you've been to the goals here in New York. And you know, that's, um, sometimes I feel like people just go to the gym to be seen, you know, exactly. Pete, those type of people that I, that I'm, that I'm talking about.

00:30:00.18
William Hernandez
Um, but But here's the thing that I've noticed lately. And and you tell me if you so you've probably seen this and in in your gym as well. Bro, I haven't seen a lot of women with BBLs lately. Like you can tell.

00:30:13.20
LeeJay
I've been telling you about that since I lived in the old neighborhood. It's prominent over there, but...

00:30:19.13
William Hernandez
Bro, I'm noticing it more and more at the at the gym.

00:30:22.78
LeeJay
Yeah, I'm not i'm not really i'm not really interested in that. I'm not really attracted to that because they do it they do it doesn't even fit their body.

00:30:30.31
William Hernandez
It's weird to me.

00:30:31.26
LeeJay
Yeah, it's it doesn't even... You got like a... You know, it's like blowing up a piece of bubble gum really big, right? And then putting it on a pencil.

00:30:41.27
William Hernandez
ah used to do that. Yes.

00:30:42.23
LeeJay
you you could ah um You understand what I'm trying to say? In the middle of the pencil.

00:30:45.09
William Hernandez
Yes. yes Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:30:46.09
LeeJay
Because that's what these women look like. they They're skinny. And then they got this... It's not attractive.

00:30:51.56
William Hernandez
It's very strange to me.

00:30:53.02
LeeJay
And you could tell it's fake. I feel like your butt for a woman has to like blend with her hips and her legs.

00:30:55.42
William Hernandez
Yes. Right.

00:31:00.31
William Hernandez
Yes, agreed.

00:31:01.05
LeeJay
If it doesn't, but it looks just weird.

00:31:03.22
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah.

00:31:04.89
LeeJay
And that's what they they look...

00:31:05.18
William Hernandez
I agree.

00:31:06.19
LeeJay
It's weird. Yeah.

00:31:07.58
William Hernandez
and And I think what's even making it, don't know if it's making it worse. But listen ah if listen, guys and ladies, if if you've got ah ah more of a flat backside, there is a way to build that up doing like squats and shit. it it has been It has been well documented.

00:31:26.39
William Hernandez
The thing that I think that is happening here is that these women are getting these VBLs.

00:31:30.18
LeeJay
It's not only women.

00:31:31.45
William Hernandez
No, no, I know. I've seen men with them as well. ah usually gay, but the men do get them. um The thing is, you're you're doing, you got the BBL, and then you're, a but by the way, guys, Brazilian butt lift, that's what it stands for, for those who aren't aware.

00:31:47.64
William Hernandez
The thing is, you're accentuating it when you're doing squats. So you're building up your your lower body even more and more, and it just looks more ridiculous at the end of the day.

00:31:58.86
William Hernandez
Listen, I'm gonna...

00:31:59.35
LeeJay
Because whatever's inserted in your butt is not going to gain muscle.

00:32:03.03
William Hernandez
Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah, But your legs, ah your thighs are getting bigger.

00:32:05.94
LeeJay
But everything around that is going to build muscle and it's just going to look weird.

00:32:06.80
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's what's happening. That's what I'm noticing lately. I swear to God, it was like two weeks ago. somebody was working out, some chick was working out and I noticed it. And then some chick was walking in and i had to do everything in my power.

00:32:25.94
William Hernandez
It was so noticeable from the front. That's how, but that's how bad it was that I had to do everything in my power to not turn around and look because it was somebody else coming towards me and she saw my reaction.

00:32:38.23
William Hernandez
And i'm like, okay, I'm not going turn around because I don't want to look like i' I'm a fucking pervert. Listen some guys, I'm an ass guy. Like that's not even a fucking question. But that's fucking ridiculous.

00:32:48.70
William Hernandez
That whole situation there is just is just ridiculous. So stop. Please stop. Please stop doing those things. ah Okay. Any other thoughts on BBLs?

00:32:59.22
William Hernandez
Or legless and armless killers?

00:32:59.48
LeeJay
You don't... Our friendship ends the day you come to my house with a BBL. Please don't do that.

00:33:11.98
LeeJay
I'm going to send you to Eric's house.

00:33:16.82
William Hernandez
Sir, I do my squats. I'm good. i don't i don't need i don't need that. I don't even any need any natural enhancements. All right. Brackets, baby. Guess who's in first place?

00:33:29.03
LeeJay
Oh, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

00:33:29.18
William Hernandez
Me. Yes.

00:33:30.39
LeeJay
hunt I want to guess because I haven't looked.

00:33:30.67
William Hernandez
Uh-oh. Oh!

00:33:33.78
LeeJay
So me, you, Eric, Richie, right? Rob, Liz, Eric from Massachusetts.

00:33:40.98
William Hernandez
Rob.

00:33:43.52
William Hernandez
Yes.

00:33:45.36
LeeJay
Did he get to go on? Did he make it on?

00:33:47.06
William Hernandez
Yeah, he made it.

00:33:48.41
LeeJay
um Nick, not Nick. What am i talking about? Luke,

00:33:51.42
William Hernandez
Luke.

00:33:52.38
LeeJay
um Larry.

00:33:55.45
William Hernandez
He actually did not fill it out on time.

00:33:57.43
LeeJay
Did I mention Richie?

00:33:59.19
William Hernandez
Yes, so ah it's me. it's it's I don't know who boss who's Boston Liz. You know who that is?

00:34:04.09
LeeJay
Yeah, that's Rob. That's Liz. That's that's um that's Rob's wife.

00:34:05.56
William Hernandez
Okay. Oh, that's right. There's Richie. There's Rob. There's Danny. There's Eric.

00:34:11.12
LeeJay
Danny.

00:34:12.01
William Hernandez
There's Luke. There's Caesar. And then there's you. and Boston Eric.

00:34:16.75
LeeJay
Who's in the lead? Who's in the lead? You? Oh, boy.

00:34:21.88
William Hernandez
Yep. But um it's tied. here's what Here's what's going on right now. This is very interesting. Don't forget guys, you have to beat one of us.

00:34:33.62
William Hernandez
Here's the thing. So right now I'm in the first place at 85, but I'm tied with Boston Liz with 85 points. But here's the thing. I've got 48 points remaining, and she only has 16. So that's going to be tough.

00:34:46.70
William Hernandez
Richie is technically in second place with 84 points. He also has 48 points remaining, as does Rob, who also has 84 points and 48 points remaining.

00:34:58.82
LeeJay
There you go.

00:34:59.54
William Hernandez
The rest of the field is Danny, 83, 84. Eric's 81. Luke is 81. Caesar's 81. You're 77. And Boston Eric is bringing up the rear at 71.

00:35:13.45
LeeJay
Damn, I really want the Boston Eric to win.

00:35:13.66
William Hernandez
But the the thing is, yeah, he's got he's got no points remaining, so we can't win.

00:35:15.07
LeeJay
Damn. Sorry, man.

00:35:19.10
LeeJay
damn

00:35:20.04
William Hernandez
He's out.

00:35:20.89
LeeJay
sorry man

00:35:21.08
William Hernandez
um but the The people with the best chances, obviously, are are myself, Richie, Rob, Eric,

00:35:33.35
William Hernandez
Luke, and you. So that's um the people who...

00:35:40.02
LeeJay
I would have had points at the end. I was had the three out last year i had a perfect final for this year only got two out of four.

00:35:45.58
William Hernandez
That's right. I remember that. Yeah. Yeah. Because I still have Arizona still in it to win it all the way. You you have Michigan.

00:35:51.82
LeeJay
I saw Michigan is the other side that I got wrong.

00:35:53.11
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. Other people have Duke. Three people have Duke. Boston, Liz, Danny, and Caesar. Um, so that probably screws them at the end of the day.

00:36:06.34
William Hernandez
It's still close. We'll see what happens after, uh, next Saturday.

00:36:08.44
LeeJay
Sounds good.

00:36:10.05
William Hernandez
So that's, that is where we stand. Yeah. We never got a chance. Here's the problem guys with with the, with the fantasy baseball. I got to get that going earlier. That's the problem with that.

00:36:21.71
William Hernandez
That's why they never, that never came to be. But the fact that I have all your ah most of your guys' emails now, because Luke did want to play. I think you said Richie was in. know Danny and Cesar would have done it. Larry would have done it. Now that I've got more emails, it'll be easier for me to get that going like early next year. so All right.

00:36:45.08
William Hernandez
Let's talk about what happened over the weekend with St. John's. as they fall to Duke on Friday night, 80 to 75 in the sweet 16 St. John's actually let this game 40 to 39 at halftime and actually pushed that lead to 53 to 44 early in the second half before Duke turned the game late, uh, with the, with the surge there at the end, basically this came down to, I think a a few things. Um,

00:37:21.72
William Hernandez
do St. John's up sixty nine is up 69-67 with 421 left. That's when Duke went on the 8-0 run.

00:37:30.86
William Hernandez
Let's see. Was Isaiah Evans hit a step-back three to put Duke up in front? Then Cameron Boozer confronted a three-point play. And then Caleb Foster, who we'll talk about a little bit, scored a putback to make it 75-69 with 214 left. I mean, that was essentially it.

00:37:48.47
William Hernandez
You know, I think... I don't know. It's a few things here. um One, that zone killed St. John's. It just fucking did.

00:38:00.36
William Hernandez
And I know i know you've got, you you can say your piece about about the zone if you want right now. Because I don't i know you you weren't happy about the, we're not happy, but you were saying there was a certain way they could have played that zone and they didn't do it.

00:38:12.25
LeeJay
but they did it But they did it twice.

00:38:13.17
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:38:14.26
LeeJay
They put Zuby at the foul line.

00:38:14.30
William Hernandez
Yeah, right. Mm-hmm.

00:38:19.16
LeeJay
They gave him the ball. Now, if you if he makes a move... I think one time he made it. So if he's facing, if he was on a final and facing a basket, the big man, that's it. Cause I think they were playing in two, three zone.

00:38:29.56
William Hernandez
They were two, three, yeah.

00:38:29.75
LeeJay
The big man steps up. He goes left. The guy on the wing that's playing a zone collapses. The guy, whoever that was on the left, the left three pointer, he hit it.

00:38:40.38
LeeJay
the The one that I do remember is he did it, but now he did it. He went right. And, um, what's his name? Oh my God. The Brazilian assassin.

00:38:50.05
William Hernandez
Oh, Ruben Prey.

00:38:51.42
LeeJay
he would He hit one based off what he did, and then they stopped.

00:38:53.89
William Hernandez
Portuguese, yeah, right, yes.

00:38:56.57
LeeJay
they I don't think they would move. like they were i didn't There was no one cutting baseline.

00:39:05.56
LeeJay
You got to move the ball in a zone because a ball always moves faster and and and than the defender.

00:39:12.31
William Hernandez
Right. Mm-hmm.

00:39:14.04
LeeJay
You got to swing the ball. You got to forget about trying to dribble and penetrate because it's going to close it and you're gonna be stuck there. But if you do penetrate, somebody's got to be open. But you got to understand what side you're going to, to where, meaning you can't go left and then try to throw the ball right.

00:39:30.58
LeeJay
If you penetrate far enough left, that big man baseline is going to collapse. So somebody's got to be open. That's just the way I saw it.

00:39:40.59
LeeJay
They did it a couple times, and then they went away from it. And I think they then they fell into... There was a part where I think they fell... Because I didn't watch the whole game. I just watched maybe mostly the second half.

00:39:51.29
LeeJay
And I think they fell into... Then trying to shoot so many too many threes.

00:39:55.19
William Hernandez
That was the problem. Yeah, they were 2-10 in the second half with three pointers.

00:39:58.87
LeeJay
And I was like, you guys got to stop shooting threes. So just speaking about the zone, because I do have something else. that That's what I have to say about the zone part of this conversation.

00:40:09.11
William Hernandez
Do you think not having a point guard hurts them in that situation?

00:40:12.06
LeeJay
Oh, I'm so happy that you brought that up.

00:40:12.40
William Hernandez
Right.

00:40:16.47
LeeJay
Because now I'm going to get to stand on my soapbox. Because we talked about this last year sometime.

00:40:23.86
William Hernandez
Yeah, we did.

00:40:24.73
LeeJay
And Patino said it. And what did I tell you? This, whatever he said, whatever i don't have to agree with you.

00:40:31.21
William Hernandez
About the point guard thing. Yeah.

00:40:32.42
LeeJay
It's going to rear its ugly head eventually, whether be this year, next year, which we're here now.

00:40:32.46
William Hernandez
Yeah. yeah

00:40:37.78
LeeJay
And Danny, he texted it. That was the first thing Danny texted. We need a point guard.

00:40:41.57
William Hernandez
Yep. Yeah.

00:40:43.67
LeeJay
You could have all the scorers you want. You know what scorers know how to do? Score.

00:40:49.48
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm.

00:40:52.12
LeeJay
You have to know how to put players in position and be an extension of the coach because the coach is not on the floor. And sometimes you're not always paying attention to what the coach is saying.

00:41:00.23
William Hernandez
Right.

00:41:00.60
LeeJay
So you have to have a player smart enough that knows, you know what? My job is not to score. It's to pass and get these players in the right spot. They don't have that.

00:41:09.34
William Hernandez
Yeah, and Dylan Darling is not that.

00:41:10.90
LeeJay
He is not. I'm sorry. If whoever thinks that, you you need to stop it right now.

00:41:14.97
William Hernandez
No, he definitely isn't.

00:41:16.69
LeeJay
Okay. And I felt like he was... he kept he should have he He should have been benched. I feel Darling should have been benched. Way toward the end of the game, too.

00:41:30.11
LeeJay
Because we already talked about it. Why was Prey taken out? I have no clue. we have we

00:41:34.26
William Hernandez
I still can't find the answer to that.

00:41:36.34
LeeJay
I told you you ah you, I think you agreed with it. It's because I think Pitino's saying he ain't that guy.

00:41:43.66
William Hernandez
He's not.

00:41:43.99
LeeJay
Yeah, I understand that.

00:41:44.06
William Hernandez
Yeah. But still.

00:41:46.09
LeeJay
But in the moment when it's happening, guess what he is? He's that guy.

00:41:50.23
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah.

00:41:50.87
LeeJay
And he was hitting his three-pointers. He was playing defense. And you take him out, and I never saw him again. The game was already over.

00:41:57.74
William Hernandez
No. He came with like a few minutes left in a second half. It was already over. Yeah. Already over.

00:42:04.05
LeeJay
And I'm saying to myself, because you're assuming he's not that guy, and he's not going to continue doing it. But there's a such thing as the hot hand.

00:42:14.26
LeeJay
he had He had it. He was playing good defense. He had a couple good blocks. One on Boozer, I think, when he actually, Boozer went by him and he caught up because he's long. He's tall.

00:42:21.94
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah.

00:42:23.45
LeeJay
and then And then one of the stats is that you get out-rebounded. And he's one of he's the tallest guy probably on your team.

00:42:30.53
William Hernandez
Out-rebounded in 40-27.

00:42:33.27
LeeJay
um that part.

00:42:36.44
LeeJay
I just couldn't figure out for the life of me because I'm also resorting back to last year when you bench RJ Lewis and some people I'm thinking that should have been benched that are nowhere near RJ Lewis's skillset at that time is still playing.

00:42:48.29
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

00:42:51.62
LeeJay
That's the part that didn't make any, so I don't want to say they were content with making a sweet 16, but I just,

00:42:56.89
William Hernandez
No, no, I, yeah, I agree with that.

00:43:01.88
LeeJay
I just feel like, They fall like this, this law of fucking wanting to shoot these threes at the wrong time because you don't know what else to do when a certain defense is happening.

00:43:13.11
LeeJay
I don't know. It's, it's, it was strange to me. I don't know. I don't know.

00:43:16.98
William Hernandez
Yeah, it's some the the one thing I was thinking about today, because apparently ah apparently a point guard is supposed to be something that they're going to have emphasis on going into next year to find a point guard.

00:43:29.46
William Hernandez
Great. I get that. But look, look, you got out remounted at 40 to 27. And I told Eric, I said it in the preview episode. I said, damn, bro, I looked at those out-rebounding numbers that Duke fucking dominated in the class in those first two games, and I told them I was worried about that, and guess what?

00:43:46.39
William Hernandez
It came back to bite them in the ass because Duke also had 40 points in the paint. i don't know how many – I didn't see how many offensive rebounds Duke had, but it was a fair amount. just Just watch the game. Here's the problem, I think, for them going forward, and I'm going be curious to see what they do.

00:44:01.97
William Hernandez
You've got the personnel to win during a Big East tournament, during a Big East season. But you don't have the personnel to win against a really top echelon team.

00:44:14.04
William Hernandez
And what do I mean by that? They're small, right? Zuby is not, he's not a big guy. Dylan Mitchell is not a big guy. Reuben Prey, like you said, is your biggest guy. They need to build a team that is not only going to help them dominate in conference play, but is also going to work when they get into the situation where they are going up a big team like Duke.

00:44:40.57
William Hernandez
And Kansas was big too. It wasn't like they were so you know they were small as well. So that's kind of like the biggest takeaway I took from this because I was thinking about this today. He needs to do a better job of building a more complete roster that not only does well during the Big East Conference but also can do well in the NCAA tournament because you're not going to go far, farther than when you're getting fucking out-rebounded the way you do.

00:45:08.12
William Hernandez
And he said it. We got bullied to the basket. Yeah, no shit you did. i mean, it was happening almost every time they got into the paint. So that's kind of like one thing I want to see, i you know, going into the offseason.

00:45:23.77
William Hernandez
And, bro, I will say this. Caleb Foster scores 11 second-half points. This guy had ankle surgery three weeks ago, two or three weeks ago.

00:45:34.36
LeeJay
But the thing is, too, he was roasting, darling.

00:45:37.30
William Hernandez
Yeah, he was. Yeah, yeah he was.

00:45:38.87
LeeJay
He was cooking this guy. And there was no switch.

00:45:43.10
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:45:43.13
LeeJay
Like, get this guy out of here. He's getting cooked.

00:45:47.55
William Hernandez
I don't get it.

00:45:48.60
LeeJay
The high pick and roll killed him with Boozer.

00:45:50.81
William Hernandez
a

00:45:50.81
LeeJay
Between Boozer and um the guy you just mentioned. What's name again with the broken foot he had?

00:45:54.58
William Hernandez
caleb Caleb Foster.

00:45:57.27
LeeJay
And every time they switched... The smaller guard ends up on Boozer, and Boozer goes right to the basket.

00:46:01.78
William Hernandez
Right.

00:46:02.95
LeeJay
Whether he misses a shot or not, he got offensive rebound, put it right back.

00:46:03.10
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:46:05.84
William Hernandez
Right.

00:46:06.26
LeeJay
You guys haven't figured out the high pick and roll yet? i don't I don't think, you know, he probably would have taken him if he was open, but eventually he's going to stop because I don't think he's a three-point shooter. Boozer, I would have thought about putting, just to see if it worked, because at that point the game was still close, put back and pray,

00:46:16.98
William Hernandez
No, he's not.

00:46:28.31
LeeJay
off that high pick and roll. Just because he's longer and he's taller and he can make, if you switch back real quick, he can make up, you know, without, with lack of speed, he can make up with length.

00:46:31.64
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:46:39.91
William Hernandez
Right.

00:46:41.21
LeeJay
Right? Now, if Boozer penetrates and prey is on him, it's not going to be an easy basket. He may score, but it's going to be a lot more difficult. And he's, oh, he's not going to pull up for the three-pointer. I don't think.

00:46:52.38
LeeJay
And I, bro, they did about four or five high pick and rolls and it worked every time. And I'm sitting there, watching. I was like, oh, shit, here comes a high pick and roll. Oh, shit, they got dusted again. Oh, shit, here comes a high pick and roll.

00:47:02.15
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:47:03.50
LeeJay
Oh, God, they did it again. The same move. the same With the same players, too. didn't even switch their players. It was the same players. Same move. And I'm like, come on, man. you're i get it, but you're a legendary coach. You have to figure these things out.

00:47:19.70
LeeJay
you You have to. You can't get beat on the same play like five times in a row.

00:47:24.24
William Hernandez
Do you think the problem is that he doesn't have the personnel to do that?

00:47:27.26
LeeJay
It could be. It just it just sometimes sometimes it's like with any other sports team. Sometimes it just gets to a point that's as far as you're going to go and maybe the – I think maybe a little bit to your point before.

00:47:40.28
LeeJay
The talent you have is not as good as you think it is.

00:47:43.29
William Hernandez
Yeah, I don't think it is.

00:47:43.70
LeeJay
And then when it comes to crunch time, it shows.

00:47:47.35
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:47:48.15
LeeJay
It shows. Boozer was a bully, man. He got to the basket. He got wherever he wanted. and He scored easy. Easy. Easy. And also don't like the, like, I think everybody was doing it, but whatever the case, I don't like when you get, when you, let when especially Boozer, he's coming, he's in a post, he's making his move, whatever. And you're just standing there with your hands up and he's letting, you letting him bang you. Come on, man.

00:48:09.88
William Hernandez
Yeah.

00:48:11.03
LeeJay
Like jump, do something. Like, I don't know, man. I don't, I don't know. Like I said, I didn't, I didn't have a dog in a fight, whatever the case may be, but I think they need a point guard and need somebody taller than 6'9". That's gonna be their number one scorer.

00:48:27.57
William Hernandez
exactly. Well, i know Ruben Prey apparently is coming back next season. i He needs to put on some weight. I can say i can tell you that right now. There are guys that are coming back. but So on that point, before we move on to the Knicks, I did want talk about this. ah So they did – they renegotiated – let me just read the story from the Post. St. John's and Rick Pitino are in agreement on a restructured contract that will add a year to his current deal, the Post has learned. The two sides have been talking for quite some time on the deal, which will include a significant pay raise, not only for Patino, making him the league's second highest paid coach after Connecticut's Dan Hurley, but also for his entire coaching staff.

00:49:12.38
William Hernandez
The latter was the final sticking point to the deal. Hurley makes a base of $8.3 million per season. Patino will earn in the ballpark of $6 million annually, sources said.

00:49:24.21
William Hernandez
Entering the season, The Post reported that Patino was the sixth highest paid coach in the Big East. The initial deal was worth ah roughly $20 million over six years, the sources said.

00:49:37.95
William Hernandez
So the other part of this whole thing, too, i there let's before we go on to that second part of this, number one, there goes my theory about his son taking over anytime soon because I don't think it's happening.

00:49:49.74
LeeJay
Well, I already told you where it could cook in.

00:49:50.58
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah. Wait, say that again?

00:49:54.58
LeeJay
I already told you when it actually could happen. That's still on the table.

00:49:57.66
William Hernandez
Wait, which?

00:49:58.76
LeeJay
Rick Pitino dying.

00:49:59.04
William Hernandez
Come on, stop it. That dude works out twice a day.

00:50:06.84
LeeJay
Okay.

00:50:06.90
William Hernandez
he's He's fine.

00:50:07.36
LeeJay
And looking up ladies' skirts again, getting caught doing that. And he's out of here.

00:50:13.14
William Hernandez
I don't think he's behaved since he's left Louisville. um i don't know. i Listen, I do. All joking aside, I do worry about his age.

00:50:24.47
William Hernandez
And I just kind of wonder, you know, this is the end of season three. Now, technically, he has four more years left. I can't imagine he's going to make that hole that whole contract. But, you know, let's see what happens after the next two seasons and kind of go from there. But the other part of this is is is the booster, ah Mike Reperly, who I didn't know is a managing partner for the UFL. that was ah That was news to me when I was looking this up. And he did say...

00:50:52.38
William Hernandez
He did say that he is going to keep the money flowing for St. John's basketball and basically whatever Patino wants, he will get. And I have to admit, i do have mixed feelings about this whole thing because it's like, number one, this is just the way college basketball is now.

00:51:10.48
William Hernandez
There's no putting the fucking toothpaste back in the tube. This is just it, you know? So it's just like, I wish there was another way to do this, but there isn't. You know, you got to pay for the players.

00:51:20.89
LeeJay
Thank you.

00:51:21.81
William Hernandez
The recruiting is not the same. You're not really recruiting guys out of high school anymore. You're going for these, you know, looking at the transfer portal first. um So I get it. I mean, the other thing, too, is like, I feel like you're basically buying your championship in a way. Let's this let's say if they win a title in the next couple of years, right?

00:51:41.72
William Hernandez
I know there are other teams doing it as well, but it's just like, man, this this whole situation is kind of like, I don't want to say ruin things, but it's just not the same anymore. you know You're not going to do it in the same way that you used to do it. and um I don't know. I kind of miss the old ways sometimes, but this is the way it's just done now.

00:52:03.06
William Hernandez
so We'll see. This guy's a fucking billionaire. so He is going to put his money where his mouth that is, and he really wants St. John's to win a national championship. so Anything to say about Patino or just the money involved here?

00:52:16.15
LeeJay
you gotta If you're going to spend the money, you got to spend the money on the right players.

00:52:19.93
William Hernandez
Yeah, that's true. Yeah.

00:52:21.08
LeeJay
You can spend a boatload of money. You bring the wrong players, you ain't winning. It's as simple as that. You can spend all you want. You bring the wrong guys in here, you ain't going win basketball games. Or you're not going to win you know a college championship.

00:52:33.29
William Hernandez
Right.

00:52:33.69
LeeJay
so

00:52:33.82
William Hernandez
Yeah. We shall see. I'm trying to, um, I'm trying to get on uh, to do a separate episode to do like a recap on, on the St. John season.

00:52:47.51
William Hernandez
So maybe, I don't know when that's going to happen, but I'm reaching out to a couple of people to see about doing that. So, all right, let's talk about the New York Knicks, who I feel like we haven't talked about in a while, but we're getting close, man.

00:53:06.20
William Hernandez
We are, there's only seven games left in the regular season. And ah the Knicks lost last night. and We'll get into this because know LJ has many things to say about this loss last night to OKC. But just to set the stage, the Knicks are the third seed in the Eastern Conference.

00:53:28.06
William Hernandez
And if the playoffs started today, they would play Atlanta in the first round of the playoffs. Eric, get your tickets. Get your tickets now. ah Deuce McBride was back last night.

00:53:39.49
William Hernandez
But what's the latest on him? I know he he got hurt again.

00:53:41.38
LeeJay
I didn't see anything lately. I know he got hurt last night. think I knew something.

00:53:43.38
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah. um So that kind of sucks. But before – so the Knicks had won seven straight games before the back-to-back road losses to Charlotte and OKC. And one thing that came out of the game last night – it's funny because I sent Lee J a reel in our group text with Eric – of um something that happened last night. And it's something that we keep on talking about with this team. But it'd be safe to say that last night was a, you know, it was a premier game. You want to see how you stack up. It's still a regular season, but still.

00:54:23.61
William Hernandez
So, and basically one of the biggest games of the year. Cat only took nine shots. i didn't watch the game, by the way. But look at the box score.

00:54:35.35
William Hernandez
Only took nine shots. And this was the problem with the video I sent you. Meantime, Brunson took 22 shots yesterday. And only had, he had five assists. It's not bad.

00:54:48.92
William Hernandez
um Sir, I'm assuming you watched the game last night. I don't know you have a lot to say. So, why you know, the floor is yours.

00:54:57.34
LeeJay
So the guy, I think he's from Boston.

00:54:58.46
William Hernandez
Yeah. Okay.

00:54:59.82
LeeJay
I can't remember his name. I think I've seen him do a lot of videos.

00:55:02.58
William Hernandez
Okay, gotcha.

00:55:03.13
LeeJay
So essentially he's a, he was just saying everything I've been saying about cat getting the ball and they're trying to figure out why I've already stated how I feel and what they should do.

00:55:07.25
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

00:55:11.58
LeeJay
Obviously I'm not a coach. They don't hear me on this microphone. I get it. But everything I've said has been true.

00:55:16.11
William Hernandez
Well, yeah.

00:55:19.70
LeeJay
It's been actually factual.

00:55:21.53
William Hernandez
Right.

00:55:22.17
LeeJay
Okay. Okay.

00:55:22.87
William Hernandez
With actual stats, too.

00:55:24.08
LeeJay
I'm not out here to my own horn. I'm just telling you by what I see on basketball, and I've been following basketball a long time, just like anybody who doesn't have a platform could say what they want by what they see.

00:55:32.50
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

00:55:33.27
LeeJay
But here's why I have a problem, and this is why the Knicks lost the game yesterday. And I said, you know what? And the only reason I started writing stuff down is because right around the 535 mark and fourth in the fourth quarter, forget about one through three.

00:55:47.70
LeeJay
You know, Brunson had a heart a hot start, so I know why he was continuing to shoot the ball and stuff. Bridges had ah a good game.

00:55:52.89
William Hernandez
a

00:55:55.22
LeeJay
But in the fourth quarter, I think the Knicks were down by 11, 13 points, right? Something like that. So up until the 535 mark, Cat, no matter how many shots he took, it doesn't matter, he had nine points in the fourth quarter up until that point.

00:56:10.47
William Hernandez
That's insane to me.

00:56:12.22
LeeJay
But he hadn't in that quarter alone.

00:56:14.52
William Hernandez
He had all the nine points.

00:56:14.75
LeeJay
he's the reason He's the reason why they actually made a comeback.

00:56:15.68
William Hernandez
Okay.

00:56:19.13
William Hernandez
Gotcha.

00:56:19.45
LeeJay
And at that point, they were down 95 93 points.

00:56:24.38
LeeJay
They go to a timeout. I'm trying to chill. The five players go back on the court and guess who's not in the fucking lineup.

00:56:36.09
William Hernandez
damn

00:56:37.69
LeeJay
Cat was taken out of the game. I don't care for how long it was. Well, it was about 20, 20 to 30 seconds, whatever the case may be between that 20 or 30 seconds.

00:56:50.18
LeeJay
Knicks go down. Brunson misses a shot. OKC comes back. They score. Now OKC is up by four. They're up 97 to 93.

00:57:03.54
LeeJay
They put him back in the game. But guess what happens? To end the game, to close out the game from that five minutes to the game, OKC went on a 16 to 7 run to finish the game. I think it 111 to 100.

00:57:18.58
William Hernandez
Yeah, but love it to 100. Yep, that's the final score.

00:57:20.86
LeeJay
Catch, touch the ball one more time. And it was a three point shot.

00:57:24.63
William Hernandez
Jeez.

00:57:26.78
LeeJay
If you just look at that last five minutes, there was a lot of holding the ball. In my opinion, it was like SGA of OKC would come down. He would get busy.

00:57:37.56
LeeJay
And the guy that I love dearly, and I mentioned this before, in his own mind, he's having a battle.

00:57:45.91
LeeJay
And he's trying to go down and he's trying to match what SGA is trying to do.

00:57:49.91
William Hernandez
So you think Brunson was trying go shot for shot?

00:57:53.02
LeeJay
Between the coach last night, and I have to say it, and Jalen Brunson last night, and forget about how many points he had, how many shots. I'm talking about this five minutes where I think the Knicks lost a game because they actually made a comeback and they were down by two points. OKC won by 11, and that's where they lost the game.

00:58:12.60
LeeJay
We have to figure out here.

00:58:16.22
LeeJay
How are not going to dribble the ball for 22 fucking seconds and say, oh shit, I'm trapped. Let me kick it out. We can't, we just got to stop. It has to stop.

00:58:27.32
LeeJay
And he has to stop.

00:58:27.37
William Hernandez
And it hasn't. Yeah.

00:58:28.08
LeeJay
he He has to, he has to stop trying to play hero ball and try to match the other point guard point for point. I don't give a shit. I just want the Knicks to win. Dare I say, they run up against Boston or somebody like even Philadelphia who I can't fucking stand.

00:58:44.79
LeeJay
You go against one of these not really good teams, but right there, and you get them in the second round, you're going to get your ass busted.

00:58:49.98
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

00:58:53.74
LeeJay
You're going to lose. And I'm not going to be happy.

00:59:00.57
LeeJay
Because Dopey on me has been saying this for not even this year. I've been saying this for two years. And as much as Brunson has come here, he's done great for this team. He's done great things. He's taken pay cuts, whatever you want to call it.

00:59:14.07
LeeJay
This is the moment that counts. Now, unless you go out there and become Jordan in the playoffs and it's all about you, I don't care. But that's I don't think that's going to happen.

00:59:25.72
LeeJay
He don't have the size for that.

00:59:28.13
William Hernandez
Yeah, it's true. Mm-hmm.

00:59:30.49
LeeJay
He has to figure out... There was plays not even to Cat. like There was one play I remember... In the fourth quarter, it was Mitchell Robinson. He was wide open in the middle.

00:59:40.76
LeeJay
If you just give Mitchell Robinson the ball, he's not going to make a move. You know what he's going to do? He's going to pivot. He's going to turn. And right there, left baseline was OG. He's going to dump it. What do you got? A dunk, a layup.

00:59:52.60
LeeJay
But what did he do? He didn't pass it. He goes, takes two steps back. They double him. He runs over a guy. Thank God they called the block. We have to do better, man.

01:00:04.28
LeeJay
And it's time to bitch now because the playoffs are right around the corner. You can't do this in the playoffs. You just can't.

01:00:10.01
William Hernandez
Seven games left.

01:00:11.13
LeeJay
You can't do this in the playoffs, man. Good teams that are going to hit three-pointers and you're gonna come down to miss two-pointers, you're going be out of the game very quickly.

01:00:22.42
LeeJay
I know it says, i know it's UC five assists, but that could have been five assists in the first quarter when it was like 20 to whatever.

01:00:28.63
William Hernandez
Right.

01:00:28.73
LeeJay
It don't matter.

01:00:28.92
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:00:29.45
LeeJay
It matters in the fourth.

01:00:29.72
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:00:30.81
LeeJay
If you have two assists in the fourth quarter and that's a two assists for the whole game, but they were most important to you winning the game. I don't care.

01:00:40.66
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:00:42.17
LeeJay
You can have 10 assists in the first half. Who cares if it doesn't matter when it counts, the matters the most when you're holding onto the ball. And what it looks like to me, he's having a personal match in his own mind against SGA when he comes down the court.

01:00:56.22
LeeJay
SGA scores because he was cooking at the end of the game. And Jalen Brunson feels like I'm the point guard his team. I got to do exactly what he did to match him to get my team to where he's getting his team. You got to stop, man. You have to stop.

01:01:08.06
LeeJay
You have to stop. That's it.

01:01:12.09
William Hernandez
So here's – because I'm listening to you, and obviously we talked about the same thing last year during the playoffs, right? The hero ball, holding the ball for 22 seconds.

01:01:22.74
William Hernandez
Different coach. We have a different coach this season, and the same shit is happening. Do you want to explain to me why that's the case? Do you have any idea? Mm-hmm.

01:01:31.46
LeeJay
Because every coach feeds into your best player. I get that too. And the problem with this is that You know, it's easy for, to me, as a coach, because he did it this year, and people, you know, last year, I don't, you know, Thibodeau, whatever, Brown, you know, theyve they've called out Cat, they call out other players.

01:01:45.27
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:01:48.26
William Hernandez
But never him.

01:01:48.63
LeeJay
But you know what I want to see my coach do? Call out the superstar for fucking up.

01:01:52.06
William Hernandez
Right. You're supposed to, I think.

01:01:53.14
LeeJay
You could call out whoever you want to call out.

01:01:53.95
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:01:55.02
LeeJay
beside You could call out Bridges. I don't care about that. I don't care about that. And people may say, oh, it's easier is said than done. Yeah, I understand that, too.

01:02:06.04
LeeJay
But if you're looking at the screen, everything you cannot blame on Kat. You just can't do it. You just can't blame everything on on Bridges, on this person, on that person.

01:02:13.55
William Hernandez
Right.

01:02:13.78
LeeJay
it's It starts somewhere before it gets there. And it's okay for a superstar to make mistakes. It's okay and then for him to be told something. That's okay. But if you don't tell him anything, this is the shit that may continue to happen. And going to get smacked in the second round and going to home. And I'm going to be fucking pissed.

01:02:34.78
William Hernandez
make for great content

01:02:36.40
LeeJay
I'm going to be pissed. Because like I said, there's no other place than for the Knicks than the finals this year. I don't care what anyone says. I don't care.

01:02:47.50
LeeJay
We've made it to every other round the year prior. Everyone told us we had to move on. We did. You have to get to the finals, man. And it's not by playing this type of basketball in the last five minutes of a basketball game. I'm sorry. This is not the way it's going to work.

01:03:03.54
William Hernandez
completely unrelated, but kind of related. What is up with Stephen A. Smith's hard on for that whole season?

01:03:09.20
LeeJay
Josh Hart, he's an idiot.

01:03:10.05
William Hernandez
Yeah, what what the hell's going on there?

01:03:11.38
LeeJay
This is why can't... He said something... this In my whatever, real quick, from what I read from it.

01:03:17.69
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:03:18.45
LeeJay
I guess he made a comment about Bridges.

01:03:18.87
William Hernandez
Yes. Yes, right.

01:03:21.22
LeeJay
Josh Hart being his teammate stuck up for him.

01:03:21.33
William Hernandez
And Jahart defended him. Right, yeah.

01:03:23.96
LeeJay
And he also took shots... I think actually fair shots at Stephen A, which was like, I just think he's a fair weather fan. and He don't even know who's on our team.

01:03:32.50
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:03:32.63
LeeJay
Tongue in cheek, some being truth, right?

01:03:32.76
William Hernandez
Which probably doesn't. Yeah. Yeah.

01:03:34.73
LeeJay
Trumping, because you know what?

01:03:34.82
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:03:36.38
LeeJay
Stephen A. Smith is a fair weather Nick fan.

01:03:39.03
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:03:39.38
LeeJay
I don't care what he says. He's fake. He doesn't know Jack. Okay? My point is, when you want to argue that, he took a shot at you.

01:03:50.07
LeeJay
His shot back to him was like, um... the one the The one point I really remember is him saying, oh, you don't know who I know in that building, who pays your paycheck.

01:03:58.72
William Hernandez
Yeah, you don't, yeah, I can't stay.

01:04:00.18
LeeJay
What does it have to do with anything?

01:04:01.50
William Hernandez
That is, I fucked, that drove me nuts.

01:04:02.36
LeeJay
I feel like he was saying more. He was. I feel like he was saying that as if the people he knew. As if he was like paying him.

01:04:09.94
William Hernandez
Right, yeah.

01:04:10.97
LeeJay
You get what I'm trying to say? Like an ego thing.

01:04:12.60
William Hernandez
I do, yeah, yeah.

01:04:13.02
LeeJay
You want understand what I'm saying? If that makes sense.

01:04:14.39
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah, I know it does.

01:04:15.26
LeeJay
And I'm saying, no he's taking shots at you.

01:04:15.74
William Hernandez
Right.

01:04:16.86
LeeJay
That's not a shot. if you're going to have a beef, have a beef. Like, go nuclear.

01:04:21.94
William Hernandez
Right.

01:04:22.10
LeeJay
So I was like, ah, Stephen A., he's corny. Move on. You don't have no rebuttal to him. He said you're a fair weather fan. You don't even you didn't even, like, talk about that.

01:04:31.20
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:04:31.83
LeeJay
Because deep down inside, he knows he's a fair weather fan. He's come on the television and he's, I'm done with these Knicks.

01:04:34.50
William Hernandez
Right.

01:04:37.19
LeeJay
ah I'm not watching any more games. Screaming, yelling, hollering. Go away, bro. Just go away. Go away. That's it. that's all' it's It's just stupid, man. it's just He was sticking up for his guy. What you expect somebody to do? Not say nothing? That's his guy.

01:04:53.24
William Hernandez
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

01:04:54.58
LeeJay
You can have your opinion, but he had an opinion too. Stick to the beef. That's all I'm saying. is Stick to the beef.

01:05:01.72
William Hernandez
Yeah, and I, you know, this guy, he's an, you know, Stephen A's an act. I think people, will do people realize that he's not real? You know what i mean? Like, he's like a character. He's like a cartoon character.

01:05:12.50
William Hernandez
um That's a nice, what is that? they That's a very nice ah water thing. Where'd you get that?

01:05:18.95

01:05:22.09

01:05:39.45
LeeJay
ah There's a certain name for it. I don't remember it right now.

01:05:40.43
William Hernandez
What's the proper name? Oh, God.

01:05:42.84
LeeJay
The one that actually keeps the drink cold because it's...

01:05:45.37
William Hernandez
Oh, yes, yes, yes. One of those things.

01:05:47.58
LeeJay
Yeah.

01:05:47.65
William Hernandez
Nice.

01:05:48.41
LeeJay
So I saw it. They were all over Instagram. I said, F it. I went to their page and I got it today.

01:05:52.41
William Hernandez
Fucking Instagram.

01:05:53.85
LeeJay
It was like 32 bucks.

01:05:54.90
William Hernandez
How much was that? That's pretty good. I might have to invest in one of those.

01:05:57.74
LeeJay
Yep. So I got it.

01:06:00.15
William Hernandez
All right, let's some before we get into the halftime show, just want to remind everyone to follow and like the like the podcast, on whatever wherever you listen to your podcasts. And also, subscribing does help us out. That's the reason why I ask people to do it, because it helps from a discovery perspective. And um if you're feeling generous, also please leave us a five-star review.

01:06:28.41
William Hernandez
because that is also something that really helps. And please subscribe to us on YouTube and Instagram, two dummies that you watch. Don't forget, guys, we are coming up quickly, which is fucking crazy, the NFL Draft.

01:06:43.93
William Hernandez
is April 23rd, Thursday, April 23rd. We are going to do a watch along for, at least through the, that was about to say the Knicks, at least through the um first, and the Jets and and the Giants draft picks.

01:07:04.22
William Hernandez
So the other thing too is, they might be a Knicks playoff game that night. So we've got to figure out how we're going have to do that. Might be double duty that night. Maybe because don't know if we want to have LeeJ on the air during Knicks game. But wela we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

01:07:23.03
William Hernandez
All right. Been waiting to talk about this, I feel like, for weeks. So as we transition into the baseball season, we are going to talk about...

01:07:30.28
LeeJay
Oh, Jesus.

01:07:33.34
LeeJay
not not about Jesus.

01:07:33.70
William Hernandez
I'm so...

01:07:34.26
LeeJay
Not about about this.

01:07:38.23
William Hernandez
I think if you're ah if you're a sports fan, if you're a baseball fan, you know what the 9-9-9 challenge is. And we've talked about this on this show before. But apparently, there are a few teams that are doing like, they're selling their own 9-9-9 challenge. And the Mets just happen to be one of them.

01:08:01.30
William Hernandez
Here's the problem. you People have seen this, right? You get like these little nine mini hot dogs and apparently you get one fucking tall boy beer that you have to like, you know, it's in a little, it's in a little glasses.

01:08:16.06
LeeJay
It's in the four-ounce glasses. They're flight size, if everyone if anyone's had a flight when you go to a bar or something.

01:08:20.12
William Hernandez
Yes. That's a, that's a, that is a great way to put it. They're flight glasses. Um, guys, this is not the real 999 challenge. I'm sorry.

01:08:31.45
LeeJay
Yeah, originally I thought it was nine regular-sized hot dogs, nine beers, in not and you had to feel them you had to finish a hot dog and a beer per inning.

01:08:34.30
William Hernandez
Yes. Yes.

01:08:40.82
William Hernandez
That is the real challenge. Yes. Yes.

01:08:42.76
LeeJay
That's what I thought it was. And people are like, oh, if you drink nine beers, you're to be bent.

01:08:44.18
William Hernandez
It is. No, that is it.

01:08:47.08
LeeJay
Well, just bring somebody with you. They can take you home if you if you're willing to do this challenge.

01:08:52.70
William Hernandez
That is the real challenge. Yes. This is not it.

01:08:55.10
LeeJay
and the reason why we And the reason why originally we were out on it, because if they did it the right way, which is nine regular hot dogs, nine beers, and one per inning of each, the beer was going to be cause light.

01:09:02.95
William Hernandez
Yes, yes, yes, right.

01:09:07.78
LeeJay
So right there, I'm out. where We were out.

01:09:09.49
William Hernandez
Right, yes, yes, right.

01:09:10.18
LeeJay
I'm not doing this. that's that's when it brought up That's when we brought up in the group text that I was like, this is Fugazi once I found out it was mini with the four ounces.

01:09:20.09
William Hernandez
Yeah, it is, yeah.

01:09:20.76
LeeJay
Because even if it's caused light, I could just go bing, bing, bing and be done with it.

01:09:25.69
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:09:26.71
LeeJay
And little pigs in a blanket, maybe a little bit bigger than that. ah

01:09:30.08
William Hernandez
Right, yeah.

01:09:31.70
LeeJay
So, guys, it's really one beer and nine cups that actually don't even get filled up. All the nine cups don't get filled up.

01:09:39.41
William Hernandez
It doesn't.

01:09:39.83
LeeJay
So right there, that's false advertisement. I think we should all sue.

01:09:47.83
William Hernandez
fan I don't don't. I listen. I get it. I get it from the perspective of you don't want to promote. I don't know. Alcoholism. I don't fucking know. Here's the thing, guys, though.

01:10:01.97
William Hernandez
Somebody did it. do you see this? Did you read the story with a New York Post reporter doing it? Have you ever did you read the story?

01:10:06.68
LeeJay
I think I saw something about somebody doing it.

01:10:08.38
William Hernandez
Yeah, she did it on opening day. and i I didn't read the story, but it it just she got mocked. Let's just let's just put it put it that way. This isn't real. This this thing is... the The problem...

01:10:18.07
LeeJay
That's not a real challenge to me.

01:10:19.19
William Hernandez
No. Major League Baseball, somebody's team saw this thing that people were doing And they decided to make their own version of it and then called it a 999 challenge.

01:10:29.95
William Hernandez
You left early the game early on Thursday. Bro, I saw somebody walking outside with the thing, with the with the container.

01:10:35.86
LeeJay
hmm. Oh, with that with the container.

01:10:36.57
William Hernandez
that a

01:10:37.51
LeeJay
Because they probably kept because you could probably keep the glasses to

01:10:37.59
William Hernandez
So somebody did it. But it's just like, you can't. Yeah, because it's souvenir glasses. Did you really do it, though? I mean, page no, you did not really do it. It's just fucking stupid. i just Somebody had a good idea.

01:10:50.48
William Hernandez
But I don't think they would ever do this. If you want to do a real 999 challenge, right? You pay for this online before you go to the ballpark, right?

01:11:01.75
William Hernandez
And then you get ah you get vouchers, probably electronically. And you go every inning. Like you have to go every back every single time and get your beer online.

01:11:14.78
William Hernandez
and your hot dog every inning at the top of every inning to make that like actually work. Because this thing right here, it's not real.

01:11:24.31
LeeJay
Yeah, because let's say you would have to do the 12-ounce cans, which is the regular size, which they don't sell there.

01:11:24.58
William Hernandez
It's not the real thing.

01:11:32.09
William Hernandez
They don't.

01:11:33.05
LeeJay
number Like we just mentioned, I'm not drinking Coors Light.

01:11:35.74
William Hernandez
Right.

01:11:36.02
LeeJay
and pen We're going to drink IPA, Eric. He's going to say we got our nose up in the air. That's fine.

01:11:40.79
William Hernandez
in That's okay.

01:11:42.36
LeeJay
But depending on the IPA, if I drink nine of them, I'm shit-faced.

01:11:46.46
William Hernandez
Yeah. Right.

01:11:48.23
LeeJay
i'm not gonna i'm not Between the beer and the hot dogs, I'm either going to puke Or if I do eat it, I'm going to get probably sick either that night or the next day. Either way, it's and I think it's impossible.

01:11:57.18
William Hernandez
Yes. Yeah.

01:12:00.60
LeeJay
And going back to you just said something really quick. I wanted to mention something you just said about they were promoting not you know alcoholism of not being.

01:12:08.38
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah.

01:12:09.16
LeeJay
They're not trying to do that when I see half the people out of that stadium walking out shit-faced.

01:12:14.33
William Hernandez
That is very true.

01:12:14.50
LeeJay
Off-course light.

01:12:15.49
William Hernandez
Yeah. Right.

01:12:18.01
LeeJay
And you serve two at a time.

01:12:21.07
William Hernandez
Right. Yes, you do. Right.

01:12:23.06
LeeJay
So, you know, that's bullshit. I just think that, you know, well some i think some stadiums, because it's not all stadiums, I think some things are becoming too gimmicky.

01:12:37.50
LeeJay
And that's what I don't like about Because I think it's corny.

01:12:38.84
William Hernandez
I agree.

01:12:39.62
LeeJay
It's not a challenge.

01:12:39.70
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:12:40.22
LeeJay
Give me a real challenge.

01:12:40.57
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, like, my my other point was, if let's just say you buy the little hot dogs, excuse me, and you're sitting there, you're letting them get you're letting them get cold, and you're letting shit fly on top of them. Guys, stadiums are fucking dirty.

01:12:56.92
William Hernandez
um I don't know. It's just, it's it's not real. I wonder how many of these things have they actually sold, these teams that are doing it.

01:13:03.86
LeeJay
Shit is $60 too. Yeah,

01:13:05.24
William Hernandez
Yeah, 60 bucks for this, which, i that that's not worth it to me. Yeah.

01:13:08.98
LeeJay
yeah I'm not interested. I'm good. Give me another challenge.

01:13:10.59
William Hernandez
Yeah, let's let's can we can we do like a real a real challenge like the real one and figure out a way. Hey, maybe to your point. And let's combine the two ideas here, the voucher idea and.

01:13:24.50
William Hernandez
That you order 12 ounce cans, you have them at the stadium specifically for this.

01:13:29.14
LeeJay
Yeah, because you can't do this challenge with the tall boys, no matter what the beer is.

01:13:31.45
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah, you can't.

01:13:33.46
LeeJay
but bro imagine brat Bro, imagine drinking, because I think that's a 9.5.

01:13:33.62
William Hernandez
People do it, though, apparently.

01:13:38.25
LeeJay
Imagine drinking nine Voodoo Rangers.

01:13:42.82
William Hernandez
You'd be dead.

01:13:45.17
LeeJay
I'd be like, Janet? Yeah, I left him at the stadium. He's unresponsive. He's breathing, but he's unresponsive. Yes, EMS is on the way. i gave them my number. I'll call you back with details.

01:13:57.88
William Hernandez
Jesus Christ.

01:13:58.81
LeeJay
Come on, bro.

01:13:59.32
William Hernandez
There'd be no way I would do that.

01:14:00.31
LeeJay
You can't. No one can do that.

01:14:02.01
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:14:02.10
LeeJay
I mean, i'm i I'm assuming someone can do it, but you'll be either sick.

01:14:04.44
William Hernandez
Yes. Not advisable.

01:14:07.29
LeeJay
Yeah, you're going be fucking very drunk. ah Whatever, man.

01:14:14.58
William Hernandez
I mean, they do have IPAs that are like 5%.

01:14:14.86
LeeJay
It's stupid.

01:14:19.26
William Hernandez
Could probably do it then. But even then, i can probably drink of those tall boys maybe three or four and I'd be done. There's no way. There'd be no way.

01:14:29.30
LeeJay
It just it just gets filling.

01:14:31.32
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

01:14:33.34
LeeJay
i don't know. It's stupid.

01:14:35.89
William Hernandez
Do something better, guys. Please. Anyway. All right. Let's talk about a little bit of the Mets because Lee finally went to his first opening Mets opening day.

01:14:53.27
LeeJay
Thank you to Richard Aloysius Ortiz.

01:14:53.43
William Hernandez
And sir, yes, yeah yes.

01:14:56.07
LeeJay
Thank you very much, sir.

01:14:58.17
William Hernandez
Thank you. Because ah getting opening day tickets for that price is probably ah impossible. So we definitely, cause we we weren't going to go otherwise, but sir,

01:15:10.74
William Hernandez
sir You were not impressed.

01:15:14.26
LeeJay
At all.

01:15:14.33
William Hernandez
And I i want to hear your reasons. And I also... Because i cause you when you were saying this, and I was trying to... And I thought I was trying to defend it.

01:15:27.26
William Hernandez
I think... There's a reason why it did not seem impressive. And I think it has to do with the current roster and just the uneasiness around winning. Anyway, go ahead.

01:15:41.37
William Hernandez
What do you want to say about opening day?

01:15:42.61
LeeJay
That's fair, but

01:15:43.77
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:15:44.41
LeeJay
To me, opening day, from how everybody describes it, is separate from the regular season, whether that makes sense or not.

01:15:49.99
William Hernandez
Right. It does. It does.

01:15:52.76
LeeJay
So I was working from home that day. i worked about three hours. And then I said, you know what? I'm going to leave early because what was going on in my head, I was like, this line is going to be...

01:16:04.18
LeeJay
Down, down underneath the train.

01:16:04.95
William Hernandez
Oh, interesting.

01:16:06.67
LeeJay
That's how I thought.

01:16:06.81
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:16:07.43
LeeJay
Oh, I thought there was gonna be some kind of something going on by the, by the Siva statue, different like games, something, something happening. Bro, I got off the train. There was like two people there.

01:16:19.16
LeeJay
Obviously that's an exaggeration, but you know what I mean?

01:16:21.16
William Hernandez
Right.

01:16:21.72
LeeJay
There was nothing going on.

01:16:22.14
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:16:25.05
LeeJay
The loudest guy there was a guy praing praising God and talking about follow him to the gates and all of that. that

01:16:32.18
LeeJay
It was dead. it was dead. You saw it when you, you, you were on the train right behind me.

01:16:38.17
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah.

01:16:39.29
LeeJay
We walked right in. it was no problem.

01:16:42.01
William Hernandez
Yeah, we did.

01:16:43.77
LeeJay
Right. And I'm just like, there was no juice, no moxie, no. I was expecting to feel something, to see something, expect something else.

01:16:57.21
LeeJay
And none of that was there. And then I go get my food.

01:17:02.46
William Hernandez
Oh boy.

01:17:04.22
LeeJay
And we got to tag the Mets again.

01:17:06.68
William Hernandez
I totally forgot about this.

01:17:07.19
LeeJay
I should not be paying $40 to get food that tastes like it came out the fucking freezer. It was ice cold and it was raw. Like, what's happening here?

01:17:20.95
LeeJay
We were there too early for that food to be that cold.

01:17:24.09
William Hernandez
I agree.

01:17:24.12
LeeJay
So what did you do? Start cooking your food at 6 in the morning and then you just left it under the lamp? under the lamp That place was empty. that the What was it? The Hudson...

01:17:33.03
William Hernandez
Hudson Valley Club, yeah. Hudson Club, yeah.

01:17:34.71
LeeJay
That place was empty. That food should not have been like, it was, it just started there and then it just led into just sitting down and don't know, just, just you, after that second inning, everything just died.

01:17:53.85
William Hernandez
and i you But you know why? i think this is what happened. Everybody blew their load in that first inning with Skeens. And this is the way I was – because for people whoever watch who didn't watch the game on on on on Thursday, and it was on on NBC, I got to give the crowd credit because it was sold out. It was 40, almost 42,000 people there.

01:18:14.35
William Hernandez
Here's what happened. The Mets jumped all over Skeens in the first inning. We all know by now the Cruz issues in center field. And when they came to get Skeens out of the game, the whole crowd got up and gave Skeens a standing ovation.

01:18:31.53
William Hernandez
I've never seen that before. I think because there was so much energy in that single inning with that whole situation that it basically everything died after after that. That's what I think happened on Thursdays.

01:18:46.37
LeeJay
I've been there for games like that. I just feel like this the way opening day has been hyped up to me and me always trying to go, that's not what that was. To me, it doesn't matter. Because even though even the people that...

01:18:59.42
LeeJay
the people that man the orchestra or the music or let's go meds and they hit the drum boom boom and everybody no matter if it's ah if they're playing defense or they're batting something's always going on to get the crowd into it and they even they weren't i don't feel nothing was aligned and i told you i feel a lot a lot of times and people could laugh at me whatever there was times when

01:19:04.18
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:19:16.44
William Hernandez
Interesting.

01:19:29.72
LeeJay
The Mets did something in other innings, you know, when they score and they hit the music and they got the techno music. You like Jersey Shore, Mike, the situation, Snooki, GTL. And everybody's like, and here comes Francisco Lindor.

01:19:42.66
LeeJay
My girl. my And it just dies.

01:19:44.51
William Hernandez
Oh, yeah.

01:19:46.42
LeeJay
And what did I tell you?

01:19:46.78
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:19:47.46
LeeJay
this I'm with Danny now. I'm finally with Danny. He's got to change his music. It kills the crowd, bro.

01:19:53.43
William Hernandez
It does.

01:19:54.30
LeeJay
Because that crowd on opening day wasn't rocking with him like they usually do singing a song.

01:19:54.33
William Hernandez
It does.

01:19:58.81
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:19:59.29
LeeJay
They wanted no part of it.

01:20:00.89
William Hernandez
Yeah, I agree.

01:20:01.59
LeeJay
It kills the mojo, man. You gotta, a you gotta, it bro, of you if you ever hear this, Lindor, you have to change your music, bro. you have Something upbeat, Spanish, people don't even have to understand it. they It just needs to have a beat.

01:20:15.42
LeeJay
And needs to flow with the techno music because that's what they usually play, the...

01:20:19.57
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

01:20:20.06
LeeJay
when they get like a big hit or something like that it runs scores. And then here comes Lindor with his fucking My Girl. Go away, bro. You have to change your music.

01:20:29.36
William Hernandez
It's funny you say that because you had already, you I know you had to leave you had to leave early. So Benj hits the home run and then Alvarez hits the back-to-back and then Gels is coming up to the plate.

01:20:39.66
LeeJay
Lindor.

01:20:40.16
William Hernandez
Lindor. And you play that music.

01:20:40.79
LeeJay
and that's And everything stopped.

01:20:42.42
William Hernandez
Yeah. And everything kind of like died down after that. So it's very strange. I think, he I've been thinking about this. And i was in it makes me think about something that I i spoke with my mother on on Sunday. And I think there's a little bit of this happening right now.

01:21:00.09
William Hernandez
I really do. And this can play into the over the weekend and you know what happened with Bopa shit on on yesterday, getting booed and everything. i because they' Because I was there Saturday as well, for people who aren't aware.

01:21:13.05
William Hernandez
The vibe on Saturday was off as well. My theory is that the fans just don't trust these new players yet.

01:21:24.05
William Hernandez
They've been so used to having Nemo there and fucking Alonzo there. And let me tell you something. When Devin Williams came out on Saturday, fucking silence.

01:21:35.54
William Hernandez
Nobody cared that he was there. And I was just like, holy shit. This is so much different from when Diaz would come out to the trumpets when he would come out to close games. I really do think that people are still getting acclimated to this team. And i'll listen, my mom on Sunday, we started talking and she said it. She's like, I need to learn these players.

01:21:55.58
William Hernandez
I don't know who any of these guys any of these new guys are. And you look at the roster, the starting infield is is only – the only person who's back there is Lindor, right? You look at the outfield, two throws of the outfield is new.

01:22:09.50
William Hernandez
lot of new pitchers. So, I mean, I kind of get it, and I wonder if that's just throwing people off. And then yesterday, I think the reason why Pichette was getting booed is because he's not Alonzo. Like, these guys, I think going to get the shit in some ways from some fans until they until they prove themselves.

01:22:27.14
William Hernandez
And I saw was a lot of scuttlebutt today on the radio with the whole Pichette thing um today.

01:22:32.82
LeeJay
No, people will ask you questions like radio hosts. I don't know why they're booing three games in.

01:22:35.58
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:22:37.19
LeeJay
That's a pretty stupid question to ask. You know exactly why.

01:22:39.19
William Hernandez
of the fuck

01:22:39.76
LeeJay
Because the people that are still holding us over the Mets is the exact reason why they're booing.

01:22:43.77
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:22:45.02
LeeJay
And when three games in, five games... I'm not... I said I'm going to approach this differently.

01:22:51.58
William Hernandez
Yes, right.

01:22:52.22
LeeJay
But if I approach it to jump on on that side again... The guy has looked like dog shit.

01:22:57.46
William Hernandez
He has. Mm-hmm.

01:22:58.54
LeeJay
And Polanco. Yeah, Polanco's had a few walks, but he hasn't gotten any hits. He hasn't done anything. So the people that love the guys that you got rid of, this is what they're naturally going to do until these people perform.

01:23:10.36
William Hernandez
Yep, exactly.

01:23:11.04
LeeJay
This is just what it... You guys should know that, too. It's asinine to even ask that question or to criticize the fan base to players that they love that are no longer here and the players that you replaced with.

01:23:21.40
LeeJay
Right now, with three games in, suck. Yeah.

01:23:23.61
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah.

01:23:24.89
LeeJay
People like to do these things. People like drama. People like complication. You should know this, especially from the Yorkers.

01:23:33.25
William Hernandez
And the only guy that's really getting a pass right now is Carson Bench because he's obviously the rookie and blah, blah, blah. But listen, I think, and I was telling this to Lee J coming into today, it's just like, you Mets fans, and the reason why, i listen, Lee J and are Mets fans. I work so Mets fan.

01:23:49.97
William Hernandez
But I feel like we're fucking reasonable, right? We criticize when it's it's needed and we praise when it's all when it's also there. A lot of y'all need to fucking chill.

01:24:01.88
William Hernandez
right now. Because you know what I saw after opening day? August seems going to the World Series. Oh, Carson Bench is going to be the rookie of the year. Oh, look at what Luis Robert did Saturday with the with the walk-off.

01:24:15.35
William Hernandez
Guys, it's the fucking Pittsburgh Pirates. It's the Pirates!

01:24:21.21
LeeJay
I've seen the same thing, and i and I just said to myself, you know what, like I said, I'm not going to be the other person. I'm just not going to do that because I want to see them win, whether I'm right or wrong.

01:24:29.15
William Hernandez
Yeah, so do Yeah, obviously, yeah.

01:24:30.58
LeeJay
I don't care about that. But as much as you're jumping on your soapbox and pounding your chest, I just want to say this one thing, and that I'm not going to really get into it and criticize.

01:24:41.27
LeeJay
I really wasn't overall impressed this weekend on how they played the Pirates.

01:24:44.57
William Hernandez
No, I wasn't either.

01:24:45.86
LeeJay
I'm just, I could, there's a lot of holes I could poke at and create.

01:24:46.07
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:24:49.04
William Hernandez
Yep.

01:24:49.38
LeeJay
And I'm, I promised myself not to do that tonight. We want to do that further into the season, maybe 20, 30 games.

01:24:53.53
William Hernandez
Yeah. Oh, we will.

01:24:57.06
LeeJay
I'm not doing it. i'm I'm just not doing it the first weekend of the series. Cause I promised myself to approach the beginning of the season season differently. Whether I like the person in charge, whether I like the person that owns a team, it has nothing to do with it.

01:25:04.93
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:25:10.74
LeeJay
But at the same time, to your point, which what you're saying If you want to be realistic, there's a lot of things that if that was another team, we would have got swept.

01:25:20.13
William Hernandez
Yeah. I think you're right.

01:25:21.21
LeeJay
And I think that's fair to say.

01:25:22.73
William Hernandez
Yeah. Hello, they gave up seven fucking runs on opening dates to the Pirates.

01:25:26.71
LeeJay
So, you know, everybody just chill. And then these are the same fans and be like, oh, Yankee fans, they're talking up to me. and the you you But you're talking shit. ah you know You don't expect they're going to come back at you?

01:25:35.41
William Hernandez
Right.

01:25:37.19
LeeJay
Yeah.

01:25:37.66
William Hernandez
And you're chanting Yankees suck after opening day win. Come on, guys. We're still doing this?

01:25:41.46
LeeJay
ah that that That drives me nuts. Thank God I wasn't there for that. That drives me nuts. You letting these guys live in your head rent free. Who cares?

01:25:50.10
William Hernandez
So stupid. I can't. I can't.

01:25:51.77
LeeJay
I don't understand. i don't want It's like the whole thing with the...

01:25:52.63
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:25:55.42
LeeJay
when like I understand it happens during football games a lot.

01:26:01.16
William Hernandez
Hmm.

01:26:01.24
LeeJay
I could understand if like the Jets or the Giants or whatever American team was playing like a team from, I don't want to get in trouble from this, but like from another country, let's say, right?

01:26:08.85
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:26:09.19
LeeJay
You already know what kind of country I'm talking about, right?

01:26:09.53
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah.

01:26:10.95
LeeJay
i don't want to really get too detailed. And then we just stop saying USA.

01:26:12.63
William Hernandez
Okay.

01:26:14.75
LeeJay
you we're we're all from the We're all from USA.

01:26:15.62
William Hernandez
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:26:17.65
LeeJay
We're not playing like a different country.

01:26:18.01
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:26:19.25
LeeJay
in the I find that weird. i get it.

01:26:21.88
William Hernandez
I agree.

01:26:22.25
LeeJay
But I find it weird. But whatever. i don't The Yankees suck thing that the Mets do. You guys are losers. That's me talking to Mets fans. You're losers.

01:26:32.14
William Hernandez
I agree with that.

01:26:32.41
LeeJay
I just look at you like, i don't know, you have like three heads. It's stupid. It doesn't make sense to me.

01:26:37.44
William Hernandez
Yeah. It doesn't. I mean, it's not even like they play in the same division. You know, it's just, it's fucking, it's so dumb. And by the way, the Yankees are throwing, you know, so take that.

01:26:46.33
LeeJay
And how many Yankee fans are really there that you're chanting this to that's hearing this?

01:26:50.04
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:26:53.06
LeeJay
It's not like you're at Yankee Stadium playing the Yankees and you want to do that.

01:26:55.42
William Hernandez
Right. Exactly.

01:26:56.66
LeeJay
Fine. you're not You're playing the Pirates. It's it's dumb. It's fucking dumb.

01:27:05.34
William Hernandez
By the way, what do you think about this whole story that came out that um the Yankees basically told the Pirates to pick any four fucking prospects we have for skeins?

01:27:05.37
LeeJay
Whatever.

01:27:18.33
William Hernandez
And the Pirates said no. What do you think about that whole situation?

01:27:22.84
LeeJay
Maybe they think the the Yankees prospects are not as good as they think they are. Like I told you, your own prospects are your own prospects. That's what you think of them.

01:27:29.47
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah. Yeah.

01:27:31.06
LeeJay
you know and It's not like we spoke about Alvarez. He was the number one prospect in all of baseball.

01:27:36.23
William Hernandez
Right. Yes.

01:27:37.21
LeeJay
These might be just top prospects in their farm system, but they could be six in their farm system. But if you go in totality, maybe they're 130.

01:27:46.26
William Hernandez
I see. Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah.

01:27:47.93
LeeJay
you get what You get what I'm saying? yeah And I get, and i I'm pretty sure the Yankees do have some top prospects that are across major league.

01:27:49.21
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:27:52.60
William Hernandez
They do. Yeah, they do.

01:27:53.81
LeeJay
But maybe for them, they're comfortable, depending on who they are. Maybe they're comfortable who they have at these positions or maybe they're really going to try to build something around schemes. I don't i don't know.

01:28:04.25
LeeJay
i don't Maybe that's their plan. It's not like they didn't sign anyone this year. Granted, it's not like there's big there's big stars, but, you know, ke what's his name?

01:28:12.09
William Hernandez
They made some moves.

01:28:14.35
LeeJay
Mitch Keller. He always shuts the Mets down. He was impressive on Saturday. This kid yesterday was... I liked him.

01:28:20.63
William Hernandez
Yeah, they got pitch yesterday.

01:28:21.03
LeeJay
can't remember his last name.

01:28:21.67
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:28:23.96
LeeJay
I liked him a lot. You know what I'm saying? And they have little pieces here and there. Do they need to bring in more? Definitely. But... Maybe they're trying... I don't know. Maybe they're trying to do something. I don't know.

01:28:35.03
LeeJay
I don't know.

01:28:37.18
William Hernandez
I mean, I think they're, I i don't know.

01:28:39.58
LeeJay
I mean, they are building up around the stadium. The stadium is nice.

01:28:41.82
William Hernandez
They are right. Yes.

01:28:43.08
LeeJay
They're trying to do something.

01:28:44.60
William Hernandez
Yeah, I agree.

01:28:44.74
LeeJay
ha, ha, ha.

01:28:46.68
William Hernandez
I agree. Um, why can't I find a picture? Oh, mu oh, I can't even say it right.

01:28:53.00
LeeJay
Mel Donowski or some shit like that?

01:28:53.85
William Hernandez
Yeah. martinzinski Yeah. I'm fucking definitely butchering that.

01:28:57.94
LeeJay
Let me see. Oh.

01:28:59.45
William Hernandez
It's M L O D Z I N S K i I don't even know how to say that. Luke, get back at me. You probably know. Cause it's American. Uh, National League Central.

01:29:09.78
William Hernandez
um Anyway, there was something else I wanted to say about the Mets, but I cannot remember. Anyway, what do we think about ABS so far?

01:29:24.78
William Hernandez
Now, is that reaction, what is that a reaction to exactly?

01:29:28.82
LeeJay
change that To the fans, just watch the game.

01:29:31.32
William Hernandez
The fans. Okay, I can't

01:29:33.51
LeeJay
I don't care. i I worded that wrong yesterday in a text message. I don't have a problem with the catcher, the pitcher, and the batter having to do this.

01:29:41.98
William Hernandez
Okay, I see what you're saying.

01:29:43.29
LeeJay
pay I'm going to tell you right now. i know Eric's going to hear this. So when he watches the next game, he watches it on TV. The next game you watch probably be tonight to see if they do it.

01:29:49.67
William Hernandez
Tonight, yeah. Once we get off.

01:29:51.15
LeeJay
It's the fans behind home plate.

01:29:51.45
William Hernandez
yeah And I'm doing it. i didn't even notice that.

01:29:54.17
LeeJay
Every three seconds.

01:29:55.23
William Hernandez
Oh, my God.

01:29:56.18
LeeJay
Bang, bang bang bang bangg bang gangng bang, bang, bang, bang harder. So you get a concussion. Bang harder. Everything's not a fucking strike.

01:30:04.50
William Hernandez
my god

01:30:05.27
LeeJay
But because they're behind the home plate, they think that they're home plate umpire.

01:30:08.41
William Hernandez
They think they see it right, correctly, yes.

01:30:11.00
LeeJay
And, oh my God, man, it's so, and and you can't block that out.

01:30:16.18
William Hernandez
No, you can't.

01:30:16.30
LeeJay
I'd rather listen to, i rather listen to Doris Burke. shit all over the Knicks than to kinchu watch these dopes behind the home plate banging their dopey heads.

01:30:26.71
William Hernandez
I gotta watch the game tonight and see if they, if they, because I didn't...

01:30:29.22
LeeJay
It happened. Oh my, because I watched, I didn't watch only the Mets game. I watched a couple other games on the MLB app on my iPad as I was watching the Mets or whatever.

01:30:36.18
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

01:30:38.14
LeeJay
And you just see it. bum bu but butba bu bla bu but I'm like, everything's not a strike guys. Everything is not a strike. You have to stop. You have to stop.

01:30:46.57
William Hernandez
That's funny.

01:30:46.81
LeeJay
It's so stupid.

01:30:51.74
William Hernandez
Holy shit, dude.

01:30:52.70
LeeJay
there were And there's one thing, I don't have a problem with it. Like I said, you know, umpiring is ah is a tough job.

01:30:55.51
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:30:59.45
LeeJay
The only thing I don't like is, and this is where I wish analytics came into more of a play because this is more of, a to me, an analytical thing. When they, when they, what I mean by that is when they judge the umpires at the end of the year.

01:31:10.79
William Hernandez
Right. Yes.

01:31:11.86
LeeJay
Every umpire.

01:31:12.13
William Hernandez
They do it after every game, actually.

01:31:14.14
LeeJay
Right.

01:31:14.32
William Hernandez
This is a scorecard.

01:31:14.42
LeeJay
So what I'm trying to say is, let's say let's say they judge them now in a three-game span, and they're saying umpire X is worse because he had more missed strikes than umpire B.

01:31:15.88
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:31:26.78
LeeJay
Umpire X is not necessarily worse than umpire Y or B. Why do I say that? Maybe all the strikes that he missed was, if you look at it, it barely touches the thing.

01:31:36.31
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah, right. That's tough.

01:31:38.68
LeeJay
If umpire B, if the most of most of the ball is in the box, he sucks. He's worse.

01:31:44.60
William Hernandez
Right.

01:31:46.36
LeeJay
So you you're you're trying to do this in a totality and just by how many strikes you missed.

01:31:46.58
William Hernandez
I see what you're saying.

01:31:51.29
LeeJay
No, I think you should look at where the strike hit because it could go either way without the ABS or without the box. As a fan, as ah as ah as an announcer, you could say, oh, I i could call that a ball of strike. I could see that.

01:32:03.85
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:32:04.31
LeeJay
It barely touches. We've seen a lot of those this weekend.

01:32:05.91
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. and it's And it was a strike.

01:32:07.99
LeeJay
So that's um to me, that's unfair when it comes down to judging and rating these umpires.

01:32:08.41
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah.

01:32:13.66
LeeJay
And that part, I think, sucks for the umpires. I really do.

01:32:16.69
William Hernandez
Yeah, I mean, and this is why I think they should just do it automatically. Listen, guys, for those who are unaware, this is what was happening in the minor leagues the past because i you know I was reading about it and I was watching some of these games. Basically, they did two different things.

01:32:31.86
William Hernandez
During, I think it was during the week the the weekday games, it was all ABS, right? Every single thing was ABS. And basically what happened, it was instant. the would the The umpire would get an instant thing. They would have like a pager or something.

01:32:46.68
William Hernandez
And they would get the call and they would relay the call. it was It was very quick. Never a delay. would At least the games. I was watching Syracuse Mets, I think it was. And then on the weekends, they did the challenge system, right, to what so what we're seeing now. And I did see some people today on i don't know if you if you saw this on the Sports Talk Radio, that do want to see it all the time.

01:33:10.17
William Hernandez
I agree. I think... that they should do it 24-7 for all the games and just be done with it. Because I think eventually that is going to happen. It was really interesting yesterday, because you watched the game yesterday.

01:33:24.57
William Hernandez
There were some calls, I think it was against Soto, late in that game. where they looked like they were outside, but he he didn't ask for a challenge. And you could see it in his face.

01:33:35.59
William Hernandez
He's like, ah, i don't know if I should. This is the thing. When you're only limited to two the two challenges, you get to keep the challenge if if you're if you're correct. This is also like the dance now that they need to do about whether it's too early to challenge because it was the one, and I think, of in the first inning with Alvarez for McLean.

01:33:54.94
William Hernandez
That was called a ball and it was a strike.

01:33:56.20
LeeJay
There was a strike.

01:33:57.10
William Hernandez
Right. And that was actually a big time during that inning because McClain was struggling. So that did help him out there. So I don't know. dude I just want to see it. Just fucking do it all the time, please.

01:34:06.62
LeeJay
it so It also proves that even even as the batter, yes, there's a limited amount, but even as a batter, it's not as easy as you think.

01:34:15.22
William Hernandez
No, it's not. It definitely isn't.

01:34:17.19
LeeJay
That's why I say, you know, I'm not trying to stick up for the umpires because some calls are really egregious.

01:34:21.82
William Hernandez
Yes. CB Buckner.

01:34:22.47
LeeJay
It's not as easy as you think it is, man. Because even the batter is like, oh, yeah, but I can see it I'm going to chill.

01:34:26.71
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

01:34:30.19
LeeJay
It's too early, whatever. buth but So even standing in a box, as fast as that ball is moving, it's not as easy as everybody thinks tapping your dopey head. Take your hand and shove it up your ass.

01:34:44.38
LeeJay
You all look like dopes. and this and And I just had a feeling this was going to happen when this when this was implemented. I said, I just, ugh.

01:34:50.88
William Hernandez
I... That's so funny. You talk about me thinking about things that, you know, that you even think about these things. I've never for once thought that that would be an issue, that people behind the plate would start doing that, top and top in the head.

01:35:01.85
LeeJay
Oh, my God. it sos so and It's so annoying. It's so annoying. it's and and and

01:35:07.12
William Hernandez
That's hilarious to me.

01:35:08.70
LeeJay
And go to the other side of it. There's been challenges by catches and batters. that They wanted it because they thought it was a ball, but it was actually a strike.

01:35:17.69
William Hernandez
Right. Yes. Right. Yeah.

01:35:20.02
LeeJay
sort of To the point I was just trying to make. It's not as easy as you think it because, like they always said growing up, it's where it crosses your knees, not necessarily where it lands. And a lot of these balls cross and hit the box, and then it drops out the box, but it already hit the box, so that's a strike.

01:35:29.21
William Hernandez
Right.

01:35:33.91
William Hernandez
a Right.

01:35:35.58
LeeJay
you know the The invisible box that we see on television that other people can't see.

01:35:35.86
William Hernandez
Hit the, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It hits the box and hits the plate.

01:35:39.96
LeeJay
Right.

01:35:41.73
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:35:42.62
LeeJay
But it's it winds up going low.

01:35:44.73
William Hernandez
Right.

01:35:44.81
LeeJay
It's a strike because it it went it was in a strike zone at the time the ball got there.

01:35:45.72
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. Cross the plate. Yeah.

01:35:50.94
LeeJay
So, you know, they were wrong too.

01:35:50.97
William Hernandez
That's what it, that's what it

01:35:55.70
LeeJay
ah

01:35:56.23
William Hernandez
It's interesting. It's interesting. I just, I don't know how this is going to work during the playoffs. I really don't. Like, I just don't. Oh, my, my nightmare.

01:36:04.18
LeeJay
Maybe they get rid of it like they get rid of the ghost runner in the playoffs.

01:36:04.33
William Hernandez
And I vote. Yeah, I can see that happening.

01:36:06.67
LeeJay
Yeah.

01:36:08.54
William Hernandez
I can definitely see that happening cause my nightmare has always been, it hasn't happened yet. But my nightmare has always been, regardless of Mets, it is a Yankee, i don't care. Because I just love baseball.

01:36:19.23
William Hernandez
My nightmare has always been that a game that's a ah clinching game, the last the last out has to be reviewed. That fucking sucks, dude.

01:36:29.80
William Hernandez
I think that completely takes away from the moment. And I don't want to see a situation where it's a strike three, but no, the batter's like this when it seems celebrating.

01:36:36.44
LeeJay
Mm-hmm.

01:36:39.80
William Hernandez
That's, yeah, i don't know how that's going work in the playoffs, but... we'll ah We'll cross that bridge when we get there. All right. i was We'll talk about this quickly with with the with this Geno Smith thing, which I thought was so somewhat interesting. But you see this whole thing about the NFL is going to start this men's a women's flag football league. Do you hear about this?

01:36:58.81
William Hernandez
Yeah. i just Who's asking for this? You know what I mean? Like, who the fuck is asking for this?

01:37:06.94
LeeJay
I have no idea.

01:37:07.22
William Hernandez
I don't get it. I don't i just don't understand.

01:37:09.11
LeeJay
i don't even know. I just think maybe they they they said, oh, shit, this is another way we could make more money.

01:37:15.49
William Hernandez
That's no, I think you're right. That's the only thing I thought of today. I guess my question for that is where on the sports calendar do you put this? Because obviously you have the NFL season. It's not going to happen during that. There's the NFL competing with the UFL. I don't think so.

01:37:32.63
William Hernandez
So that's like your spring football. Maybe you put this during the summertime.

01:37:35.48
LeeJay
but i would put it in i would I would put it in April when the Mets are eliminated from playoff contention.

01:37:42.83
William Hernandez
on. That's not nice. By the way, those NFL players have got their asses handed to them in those flag football games. Just FYI.

01:37:54.15
William Hernandez
It's not the same sport, guys. It really isn't. They're played differently. um All right. little NFL news that I thought was interesting, and it has to do with the Jets. And the league meetings are going on right now.

01:38:07.70
William Hernandez
And I don't know. I didn' i didn't see the interview, but I heard that this happened.

01:38:11.26
LeeJay
heard and I heard it. I didn't...

01:38:12.50
William Hernandez
Yeah, Sunday morning. Aaron Glenn was on the NFL network for reasons that remain unclear to me. And I guess there was a conversation about Geno Smith. we all We all know by now how the Jets traded for Geno Smith a couple of weeks ago now. And this was what um this is what Aaron Glenn said.

01:38:34.20
William Hernandez
Quote, it this is about Geno Smith. It means to have a bonafide starter come in and lead this offense to where it needs to go. Glenn set up Smith. Listen, he's done it, you know, a couple of years.

01:38:45.78
William Hernandez
I mean, those years in Seattle when he was, I think, comeback player of the year. Is that for real? Was he? Yeah. Okay.

01:38:51.71
LeeJay
And I think he was also in Talks.

01:38:52.02
William Hernandez
Man, he was. Yeah, man, he was up for MVP earlier, early in the season. There's no doubt in my mind that we brought a competent, competent starter here on his team. I look forward to him getting into the building. Dot, dot, dot. No doubt about it. He's our guy.

01:39:08.86
William Hernandez
Just for a little bit of context, Smith is coming off a season with the Raiders. That's all throw for 3,025 passing yards, 19 touchdowns, and 17 interceptions in 15 games. I think the reason why I thought this was kind of strange, was there any like inkling that there would be some kind of like competition there?

01:39:30.68
William Hernandez
in in training camp? Like, why do you think... that maybe it was just a conversation over the course of an interview, but I just thought it was strange that he had to come out and say that that's Smith was the guy. I don't know.

01:39:41.62
William Hernandez
I thought it was kind of weird.

01:39:42.49
LeeJay
then Somebody asked him directly about Geno Smith.

01:39:44.76
William Hernandez
Okay. That's what it was.

01:39:45.64
LeeJay
I think the question was a direct question about them bringing in Geno Smith and I guess directly if it was if he was going to be the start or whatever.

01:39:54.17
William Hernandez
Okay. God, that makes sense then.

01:39:55.03
LeeJay
And some some hosts here on the radio were like livid because they were like...

01:39:58.58
William Hernandez
oh really? Really?

01:39:59.26
LeeJay
Yeah, because they were like... He wants to talk about those two years that he was good or he had comeback play or whatever those two years were. But no one wants to mention last year and blah, blah, blah.

01:40:05.59
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:40:08.40
LeeJay
And I'm listening to this and you're up I'm like, number one, like we always say...

01:40:14.01
LeeJay
The coach is not going to say that.

01:40:16.99
William Hernandez
Yes, right, exactly.

01:40:18.81
LeeJay
Number two, he, he, and he was more like, but why you just got to make him like, why you have to say he's your number one starter without competition? Well, that's a different conversation then. That's not the same common conversation that he was having with this person or this reporter.

01:40:33.15
William Hernandez
Right.

01:40:34.17
LeeJay
So you, you want to, which, what, the what side do you want to argue? Back to your point, right now they have Geno Smith and I think that could Cook kid that he played last year who looked terrible.

01:40:42.87
William Hernandez
Right. Yeah. Yeah. He was awful.

01:40:45.27
LeeJay
so So to me, all you have is Geno Smith on the roster right now as far as quarterbacks.

01:40:48.70
William Hernandez
Right. Yes, I agree.

01:40:50.38
LeeJay
He's the guy. You see how quick I got over it? And I can't stand Geno Smith. I don't think he's the guy. I don't think he's going to be the guy. But I could be wrong. We'll soon find out.

01:41:01.37
LeeJay
But he's only guy on the roster right now. And they're going to draft another quarterback this year. And if that doesn't work out you know what they're going to do? They're going draft another quarterback next year.

01:41:10.26
William Hernandez
Right.

01:41:10.55
LeeJay
You keep drafting quarterbacks until you find that guy.

01:41:10.78
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:41:13.35
LeeJay
That's what I believe. It's not going to hurt you.

01:41:15.58
William Hernandez
I agree. Yeah. I agree with that

01:41:18.87
LeeJay
Also, one real quick, another another radio host here in New York, he brought up about, um I found this, it goes to my point and our point how we always talk about how you hear about stuff, but GMs don't really make up their own mind. They listen to more of the outside noise.

01:41:34.11
William Hernandez
that. You really think that, don't you?

01:41:34.85
LeeJay
I'm going to tell you what I mean right now.

01:41:35.94
William Hernandez
Okay. Okay.

01:41:37.59
LeeJay
So Mike Tannenbaum, former general manager of the New York Jets, right?

01:41:40.45
William Hernandez
Yep.

01:41:41.12
LeeJay
the last He was last general manager here when they actually won, Rex Ryan, all of that.

01:41:41.24
William Hernandez
Yep. Uh-huh.

01:41:43.90
William Hernandez
Right. I remember that.

01:41:45.08
LeeJay
So this host was saying how he's good friends with Tannenbaum.

01:41:45.26
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:41:48.98
LeeJay
And the majority of GMs think that Ty Simpson is a better quarterback than Frank ah Mendoza.

01:42:01.21
William Hernandez
Interesting.

01:42:01.72
LeeJay
So I ask you this. Who's going number one?

01:42:06.34
William Hernandez
Mendoza.

01:42:07.67
LeeJay
Period. Stop. If you really thought that and you're one, if the Raiders GM was really that guy that thought that, take Ty Simpson.

01:42:11.38
William Hernandez
Because that's

01:42:17.98
LeeJay
Take him.

01:42:18.20
William Hernandez
But you know, it's not going happen.

01:42:18.50
LeeJay
But I bet you don't have the balls to.

01:42:20.59
William Hernandez
It's not going to happen, bro.

01:42:21.39
LeeJay
That's my point.

01:42:22.30
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:42:23.18
LeeJay
That's the point. But then the years down the road, you'll be like, oh, but we wanted to take him. We just, but and they'll come up with every excuse. No, take the guy that you think is the best guy.

01:42:33.59
William Hernandez
Mm-hmm.

01:42:35.38
LeeJay
That's why I say it's more is less of an opinion of the actual team or the GM, and it's more of an NFL thing when you go to make these picks. Because everybody essentially has the same board in the first round as far as players.

01:42:48.35
William Hernandez
Right.

01:42:52.54
LeeJay
And that and that's and I just found that story a little funny. I thought it was interesting.

01:42:56.06
William Hernandez
No, it is interesting because it's like, it's, no, I don't think so either.

01:42:56.84
LeeJay
Because I don't think he would lie about that conversation with him.

01:43:00.24
William Hernandez
a i

01:43:00.32
LeeJay
Doesn't make sense to me.

01:43:01.72
William Hernandez
It's, it's, what's the right way to say this? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if it's peer pressure, but we talked about this last year with Jackson Dart, right?

01:43:12.54
LeeJay
Yeah, it was the same thing.

01:43:12.82
William Hernandez
that if you got yeah If you guys think he's better than X, Y, and Z, then take him with the third pick or whatever.

01:43:13.70
LeeJay
Same thing.

01:43:21.66
LeeJay
And you know why so we we also know we have the proof?

01:43:21.88
William Hernandez
Instead of...

01:43:24.60
LeeJay
What do you see every year after, especially players that they didn't expect to go high in the draft or they do well? Let's do this mock draft again from 2023.

01:43:36.39
LeeJay
Jackson Dart is the number one pick this year. Nothing changed about Jackson Dart. You just didn't have the balls to pick him.

01:43:43.80
William Hernandez
Right, exactly.

01:43:46.48
LeeJay
That's all because you listened to everybody else and everybody else had the same opinion.

01:43:46.56
William Hernandez
Hind?

01:43:50.30
William Hernandez
As they say, hindsight is 20-20. By the way, there's an article on Jets.com about Moogie and talking about um the QB position. So I will say one thing.

01:44:00.86
William Hernandez
So to your point about Simpson, this is part of the story here. did did um Who wrote this? i don't know. The Jets contributor. ah Ty Simpson is the second QB on many boards. And Mookie, again, not tipping his hand because this whole article was about quarterbacks, had a good report about the bouncy, poised, accurate leader from Alabama.

01:44:21.30
William Hernandez
Quote, we had a good visit with Ty, he said of the Jets' journey to Alabama last week to poke around under the right-hander's hood just a bit. That's little dramatic. We really enjoyed the time down there. We went to dinner, had a workout with him. It was good.

01:44:36.25
William Hernandez
And then the follow-up question was basically, you know, is that good enough for to draft him at number two? And to your point, why not?

01:44:44.95
LeeJay
If you really think this, bingo.

01:44:46.62
William Hernandez
Yeah, why not take him?

01:44:47.22
LeeJay
if you got I wouldn't be mad. If you think that this guy could be that guy, and whether he's better than Mendoza or not far from it, why don't you take him at two? Because if you think he's even close to that, he will he'll be gone by the second time you pick in this in the first round, which is at 16.

01:44:58.68
William Hernandez
Yeah, I don't know.

01:45:05.06
William Hernandez
And so this is funny. this is Guys, this is not this was not planned. I just randomly, but this is to Lee J's point. As one reporter pointed out, I guess it was a like a scrum.

01:45:16.44
William Hernandez
There's a risk selecting a quarterback high in the draft who has only made 15 career starts all last season for 11 and four Crimson Tide.

01:45:27.26
William Hernandez
So there's your fucking peer pressure. You got somebody saying, oh, no, no, no, don't do that because it's unorthodox. But if the guy is fucking good, then fucking take him.

01:45:39.13
LeeJay
You didn't stop that from the Colts taking garbage-ass Anthony Richardson.

01:45:44.57
William Hernandez
Right?

01:45:45.24
LeeJay
Because here's a thing. i don't think he's going to play anyway this year.

01:45:49.77
William Hernandez
He wouldn't. No, I agree.

01:45:51.29
LeeJay
you Maybe the season is going to go as as you as you think it's going to go, and I think they're gonna win six games. So let's say right around two or three games before the end of the season, you know it's over. He plays.

01:46:00.28
William Hernandez
Yeah, put them in.

01:46:00.89
LeeJay
Just to see what you got.

01:46:00.96
William Hernandez
Right.

01:46:01.94
LeeJay
Because worst-case scenario, you know what I'm doing as a GM?

01:46:02.20
William Hernandez
Yeah, I agree.

01:46:05.16
LeeJay
I'm drafting another quarterback.

01:46:08.89
LeeJay
I just am What's the harm in that?

01:46:13.96
LeeJay
What's the harm in that?

01:46:15.35
William Hernandez
By the way, Mookie's response to that, quote, obviously we want the biggest sample size we can get. i don't think that – I don't know. We've talked about that ad nauseum. Anyway, it's always projections with all these draft players. So the bigger sample size, naturally, you'd feel better about it, Mookie said.

01:46:31.32
William Hernandez
But we'll still evaluate him, and there's a lot of good things to see in the games he did play. If that's – again, it whatever.

01:46:40.23
LeeJay
Here's the thing, too. if you're kind If people are contemplating that he's better than Mendoza or right around there, and you're thinking about him at two, because you just by that, you the Jets are thinking about it.

01:46:52.06
William Hernandez
Yeah, oh they are thinking about it, I think.

01:46:53.40
LeeJay
So if he's that good, do you think he's going to go from two and drop to 16?

01:46:53.66
William Hernandez
Obviously.

01:46:57.07
William Hernandez
He's not. He won't. I don't think so.

01:46:58.50
LeeJay
That's what I'm saying.

01:46:59.51
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:46:59.86
LeeJay
i would just have to go through the teams real quick and who I think he could end up with if they decide to go with a quarterback.

01:47:04.35
William Hernandez
I'll tell you. I'll tell you right now. Let's fucking do it.

01:47:08.38
LeeJay
um Obviously the raise we say Mendoza, then it's us.

01:47:08.52
William Hernandez
NFL draft order.

01:47:10.74
LeeJay
If we don't take him, then from there I kind of lose the order.

01:47:14.26
William Hernandez
Let's see. I'll tell you right now.

01:47:15.96
LeeJay
just Just go one through 16.

01:47:16.22
William Hernandez
So, 1 through 16.

01:47:17.54
LeeJay
No.

01:47:18.47
William Hernandez
Oh, that's only showing me 1 through 10. Let's go through the one through 16. Here we go. NFL.com. Okay. ah Raiders are number one.

01:47:30.01
LeeJay
no

01:47:31.34
William Hernandez
Jets number two.

01:47:32.11
LeeJay
Let's just skip us for now at two.

01:47:33.34
William Hernandez
Okay. Cardinals are three.

01:47:36.41
LeeJay
Yes.

01:47:37.46
William Hernandez
You can see them drafting him. Okay.

01:47:39.27
LeeJay
I'm just going by who needs a quarterback.

01:47:40.78
William Hernandez
Who needs a quarterback?

01:47:41.43
LeeJay
And if you're saying me, if this guy is could be that second guy, they need a quarterback.

01:47:41.66
William Hernandez
Tight.

01:47:45.82
William Hernandez
Right. Okay. Titans at four.

01:47:49.43
LeeJay
No.

01:47:50.83
William Hernandez
Giants, no, obviously.

01:47:51.54
LeeJay
No.

01:47:52.93
William Hernandez
Browns.

01:47:54.30
LeeJay
I can see them doing that.

01:47:55.64
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:47:55.77
LeeJay
They're the Browns.

01:47:56.73
William Hernandez
Yeah. Commanders.

01:47:59.35
LeeJay
No.

01:47:59.94
William Hernandez
No.

01:48:00.02
LeeJay
If this guy's healthy, no.

01:48:01.86
William Hernandez
Saints.

01:48:02.84
LeeJay
No. They got the Huck guy, however you pronounce his name.

01:48:05.59
William Hernandez
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. yeah

01:48:06.90
LeeJay
So i see them I see them sticking with this guy.

01:48:09.27
William Hernandez
Yeah. Chiefs. Obviously not.

01:48:13.02
LeeJay
Unless you don't think Mahomes, but I would say no.

01:48:15.40
William Hernandez
Yeah. Bengals. 10. 10. ten

01:48:19.70
LeeJay
That's interesting.

01:48:20.67
William Hernandez
That is interesting because there's always, yeah, there's always this scutter butt about him not being happy there in Cincinnati.

01:48:21.94
LeeJay
And I say this because this guy's always injured.

01:48:27.61
LeeJay
I would say yes to the Bengals.

01:48:29.24
William Hernandez
Interesting. Okay. Miami.

01:48:35.61
LeeJay
I would say yes in Miami too.

01:48:37.94
William Hernandez
Dallas, 12.

01:48:40.87
LeeJay
Ooh.

01:48:43.67
LeeJay
Because I'm a Dak Prescott guy, but Dallas. Damn. For now, would i would say no.

01:48:51.17
William Hernandez
That's a tough one.

01:48:53.19
LeeJay
But I was close to saying yes, but I would say no.

01:48:55.29
William Hernandez
Okay. Rams.

01:48:56.57
LeeJay
What number are we at right now?

01:48:56.65
William Hernandez
who We're at 13. The Rams, which got the yeah got the pick from the Falcons.

01:49:00.14
LeeJay
Rams? I would say yes.

01:49:02.57
William Hernandez
Oh, yeah. I can definitely see that because Matthew Stafford's probably got like one more year left.

01:49:05.22
LeeJay
That's how I'm looking at it as. I would say yes.

01:49:08.95
William Hernandez
Yeah. Ravens, 14.

01:49:13.46
William Hernandez
Another one.

01:49:16.73
LeeJay
I would say no.

01:49:19.64
William Hernandez
And then 15. It's the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

01:49:23.99
LeeJay
I would say yes to that. So I just we just I picked six teams out of that at of at the day that could possibly take him.

01:49:30.16
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah. I can see that.

01:49:32.50
LeeJay
Between one and 16. So the odds pretty high of them of him going before the Jets pick again at 16 if they don't take him at two or unless they trade up.

01:49:35.03
William Hernandez
I... won

01:49:42.37
William Hernandez
God, I would love for them to do it just to everybody to fucking melt the fuck down. Seriously!

01:49:48.47
LeeJay
Listen, I agree. if this is this i I really believe in this. If you're the GM and you really believe in a guy, you take him.

01:49:57.40
William Hernandez
Take him. Yeah.

01:49:59.32
LeeJay
Because you could really believe in a guy anywhere, and they may not turn out to be anything. But you could really believe in a guy that no one else believes in. Well, not so much Simpson, because that's not what I'm hearing from listening to the radio. And you're going to look like a genius.

01:50:13.02
William Hernandez
I mean, i'm I'm just looking at one mock draft on the ESPN because I was curious. Where do they have him going? He's not even in the first round in this mock draft. And I guarantee you they were probably... Now, they've got him taking...

01:50:26.81
William Hernandez
that they have the Jets taking him the first pick in the second round. But the to your question...

01:50:31.10
LeeJay
Remember remember jack jack Jackson Dordito at the beginning was in the first round. but they had him as The furthest I've evert seen him go on last year was like the third round.

01:50:39.84
William Hernandez
Right.

01:50:40.18
LeeJay
And look how quickly that changed.

01:50:41.69
William Hernandez
Now, do you think... Let me ask you something. Do you think we got a Jackson Dart situation this year where the Jets see him falling and they fucking somehow trade up it's into the first round to get him?

01:50:47.60
LeeJay
With him?

01:50:57.24
William Hernandez
Could that happen?

01:50:57.27
LeeJay
for me For me personally, no, because you know how much I talked about Dart. before the draft even happened last year. I don't i have never mentioned this guy.

01:51:03.10
William Hernandez
Yeah, that's a good that's a good point.

01:51:04.65
LeeJay
That's just me looking at what I see.

01:51:05.82
William Hernandez
Yeah. Yeah, right.

01:51:07.54
LeeJay
You know what I mean? So I would say no. But listen, you never know.

01:51:16.22
William Hernandez
I swear to God, i didn't read the description, but they just said it. There could be calls for the Jets to trade up in round one. but secure ah But the problem is,

01:51:25.18
LeeJay
Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen i didn't I didn't read any of this.

01:51:28.22
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:51:28.54
LeeJay
um don't even know where he's reading from, to be honest with you.

01:51:30.31
William Hernandez
ESPN.com. Oh, the problem. that So this guy makes a point. i don't know who this is. This is.

01:51:34.42
LeeJay
Go real quick, real quick.

01:51:35.51
William Hernandez
Yes.

01:51:35.70
LeeJay
on so I'm looking at CBS. they have They have Simpson going to Pittsburgh with the last pick.

01:51:37.43
William Hernandez
Yeah.

01:51:42.52
William Hernandez
Interesting.

01:51:42.94
LeeJay
No.

01:51:46.04
LeeJay
ah round round yeah Round one, pick 32. They're considering it a mock trade with Seattle, so it would be the last it would be the last pick.

01:51:52.71
William Hernandez
Oh, I was about to say a Seattle. Yeah. um Here's a description to that thing. that The reason why this guy doesn't think the Jets would move up, this guy's name is Matt Miller. Shout out to Matt Miller. i don't know who you are.

01:52:03.07
William Hernandez
But they said that they would probably have to trade away picks in 2027, and they probably don't want to do that because next year's draft is supposed to be – yeah.

01:52:08.76
LeeJay
Yeah, wouldn't I wouldn't I wouldn't. Yeah, I wouldn't do that either.

01:52:11.90
William Hernandez
Yeah. Oh, that was – I was not expecting to talk about the NFL so deeply. But you know what they say – You know what Lee J says, NFL is king.

01:52:22.20
William Hernandez
So, all right. don't have a, we have a Mount Rushmore this week unless you have something, a game or something.

01:52:28.50
LeeJay
ive Yeah, was I forgot about it we'll do it next week because I have I have another game for you guys unless you come up with one or he comes up with one.

01:52:29.69
William Hernandez
Now,

01:52:32.94
William Hernandez
Eric will be back next week. ah Yeah. Yeah. ah Yeah. got to think about that. um By the way, lee Larry did enjoy the, uh,

01:52:47.32
William Hernandez
are you smarter than a Dominican or Puerto Rican? So I don't know.

01:52:50.81
LeeJay
And I bet you he got every question right.

01:52:53.76
William Hernandez
Did he, Larry, get back at me with that. Cause I don't, we didn't, we didn't talk about the answers. We just, he just said that he, he found that very funny. So anyway,

01:53:00.76
LeeJay
The only one I thought he would have trouble on, and God only knows, I'm just guessing, which was the Spanish Steps one.

01:53:06.69
William Hernandez
right. Yes. Yes. Yeah.

01:53:08.73
LeeJay
But he's he's he's knowledgeable, so, you know.

01:53:09.17
William Hernandez
Yeah. I don't know if Larry's been to Spain to see Pearl Jam. So maybe that's the only reason he would have gone to Spain.

01:53:15.56
LeeJay
Aye, aye, aye.

01:53:17.75
William Hernandez
Anyway, that's going to do it for us here this week at episode 95. I'm thinking that maybe next week might be an around the horn episode where we each come to the table with the, with the topic.

01:53:33.13
William Hernandez
So I got to think about that. We'll see how things shake out for the rest of the week. But we had a, That episode was was a good time when we did that a few weeks back. And I want to do that like once every every few weeks just to change things up. so All right. That's going to do it for us. It's time to go watch the Mets. Are they losing already?

01:53:52.28
William Hernandez
Do we know? 7-4.

01:53:52.89
LeeJay
Yeah, just thought it was a 745 start.

01:53:55.58
William Hernandez
That's right because they're playing in St. Louis. Anyway, I am Will Hernandez here for – they're winning won nothing

01:54:02.22
LeeJay
They're winning one nothing

01:54:03.10
William Hernandez
Look at that.

01:54:03.99
LeeJay
Soto probably hit a home run.

01:54:05.34
William Hernandez
He had an RBI double. Take that, Danny.

01:54:06.65
LeeJay
There you go.

01:54:07.91
William Hernandez
He's actually starting off really well this year.

01:54:10.30
LeeJay
Yep.

01:54:10.46
William Hernandez
Danny.

01:54:11.32
LeeJay
No, no.

01:54:11.46
William Hernandez
Danny.

01:54:11.76
LeeJay
Was it? No, I think it's... i think um

01:54:16.63
LeeJay
No, I think... um I'm not seeing that.

01:54:18.17
William Hernandez
it says RBI double here.

01:54:21.19
LeeJay
I'm seeing Lindor got a hit. Then Soto made an out, and then Bichette got the ah RBI.

01:54:22.97
William Hernandez
Oh. i'll This is old.

01:54:28.10
LeeJay
Probably a sack, not a sack fly because he's 0-1, so maybe it was an RBI ground out.

01:54:32.22
William Hernandez
Interesting. All right. Well, okay.

01:54:33.76
LeeJay
That's what I'm seeing here.

01:54:35.32
William Hernandez
Yeah, I was looking at the wrong thing here.

01:54:37.18
LeeJay
Okay.

01:54:37.32
