Join me on the path of totality.

Five o'clock hour here on Felger and Maz, Jim Murray, in for Maz, who was in the path of totality in Wyoming.

Today, Tim McCone in the update studio, Jay Deere, filling in NB Rob behind the glass.

So Felger here in the A-hole chair, everything on the board, including this. I know Murray wanted to get to this particular topic. We'll let Mike and Woburn raise it. And then I want your take on Goodell afterwards, Mike. But real quick, what do you want to talk about first? So, you know, I feel like this country is racked with controversy and the oppression of, you know, certain groups, you know, and I feel like we really need to concentrate

on the real issues that are, are, I have befallen upon Major League umpires right now.

How do you like that white band over the weekend?

Oh, my God.

I thought, I saw it on Joe West, I thought it was a napkin.

I thought, you know, it was just getting ready for a seventh inning stretch snack, you know,

because it must be really hard to consume the full $400 of the per diem in the day.

That's 20 flows fillets from Longhorn Stakes, and I know.

I'm not up to it.

But, I mean, honestly, this country is falling apart.

We got Carlton from Dixie calling to San Fitzgerid statues.

And the umpires think there's going to be like a smidgen of empathy for these,

look at me, prima donna, D.Bs that could easily be replaced by

radar, by the lawn chair that my kids use when they play wiffle ball in the backyard.

Like these guys, and the per diem, they make 40K on per diem alone.

Is that right?

That doesn't include, yeah, because, like, if you calculate it, they, what, you think they play, like, 140, they up one, 120 of the 160 games or whatever.

Yeah.

400 bucks times 120.
