Hello Andy how you doing buddy. Not much. Should I call you on the how do I call you normally on your cell phone. Yeah. Okay, like this. Let me hear that connection just a little bit. Let me hear you just a bit. All right. It's this sound. Okay. One, two, three. Yeah, that's a lot better. Were you on blue tooth before? No. Okay. Are you a blue tooth guy?

In the car. Yeah. Oh, the car. Okay. How about on your bicycle? No. Come on. I see people looking at their phones while they're riding. It's nuts. It is nuts. All right. There you go. Let's go.

Today on the Zaid cast. It's Andy Poland. The guy I once derisively called good enough Andy. A man who knows more redskins history than anybody. Somebody who loved Chinese food Tiger Woods and 60 minutes on Sundays. And a guy who taught me the word. Mushuguna. Your bonus. Uncensored 35 minute edition of the Zaid cast is locked and loaded. So buckle up and let's go. Here we go.

I've got great news for you, Andy and for everyone listening. Today's Zaid cast will not include any Aaron judge at bat cut ins. So we got that going for us, which is nice. A lot of people pretty pissed off about that. I don't know where you stand on it. They split screen the Wake Forest Clemson game, which was an absolute barn burner on a Saturday afternoon.

Just to show you at at bats from judge. Yeah, I mean baseball and broadcasting. They are so screwed up and you know this Apple TV stuff. It's it's just an absolute mess. Absolutely. But would you did? Did you enjoy? I don't know if you're watching the Wake Clemson game. I was not. No. But if you're watching, let's say a college game of interest. By the way, do you watch Maryland stand in and throw haymakers?

No haymakers with the mighty maze and blue. Yeah, that's something that Maryland has not done in years to be really like credible in this conference in football.

Yeah, they let this this virus name Randy etzel getting their system for a while. And they had not recovered. Then they had a coach who killed a kid because he was playing Johnny tough guy. And now they finally got it right with their current guy, who's a great recruiter. But they say game day.

Loxley is not the best per se. Well, I mean, he's got a quarterback, Talia, Tango, Villolo, to his brother, who's who's pretty good. And he continues to bring in wide receivers and running backs and their offensive line is pretty good. Look, I mean, the the place Maryland should be is somewhere between eight and 10 wins. If they can do that on a semi regular basis, that's good enough. That's that's who they are. They're not going to be Michigan. They're not going to be Ohio State.

But if they're a team that can consistently play in bowl games, I think that's pretty good. Good enough. Good enough. The phrase basketball school. And how's your basketball team right now? Well, I would say this. I would say this. They are among a handful of schools where winning an NCAA basketball championship would be bigger than a football championship. Fair enough. Fair enough.

And, and you know, it's kind of embarrassing, you know, Wisconsin, your daughters, all me mater. And the program that we cover the most closely at 97 through the game in Milwaukee, we are their affiliate. They just got humiliated by Ohio State.

And while they've played the buck guys kind of close a few times in the last five or six meetings, there has been a separation where you have to ask yourself, you're recruiting with the same letterhead, your athletic department has the same, well, not quite the same budget. But you're a big 10 school. You're not even competitive. If Wake can stand in and throw haymakers with Clemson, that is one multiple national titles. And if you guys can hang with Michigan.

That's pretty embarrassing for Wisconsin, I think. Look, I think it's part of the changing landscape and college football that the program was built on massive offensive linemen and running backs going behind them. And that's not really college football anymore.

Right. And solid defense and fundamental play. But now it's a whole different ballgame. Speaking of how different the ballgame is Marvin Harrison, Jr. Yes, the son of the great Marvin Harrison who went to the Hall of Fame may have shot a guy outside his car wash and Philly, but it remains in the cold case file. His kid is now at Ohio State and was playing in cleats that had Louis Vuitton logos on them.

And was wearing an apple watch. Right. This is a, this is not the junction boys anymore. Is it?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's, it's NIL. I mean, it's, it's absolute chaos. I mean, I, I don't know how it's, it's ever going to be settled down. But we're only a year into this and look at it. That is crazy. Yeah.

So back to the judge thing. If you're watching the game, you really want to watch. Would you tolerate a judge at bat cut in? Yeah, I would. It doesn't take forever.

But it compromises the game you're watching and stand. But what if you're not a Yankee fan? Well, you're a sports fan. It's an historic event. The number 61 to me is very meaningful. One of the underrated movies, sports movies is 61 made by Billy Crystal.

About the home run chase of 1961. So, you know, to me, it's, it's not going to be like, you know, you don't want to highlight like after it happens. Like, okay, this just happened at Yankee Stadium highlight.

Except, you know, you want to be able to say, I was watching it live. Yeah, you weren't watching it live. You were watching a football game. And then they shoved it down your throat.

You're more important things to get upset about, I think. Well, you know what?
