This Felger and Maize your favorite afternoon show. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Tom and Quincy, you want to just hang up on him by accident. Tom, you can call us back. Joe and Lincoln, do you want to vent on the Red Sox? Go ahead. Yeah, I've got a really stupid idea, but actually it makes sense if you think about it. Rafi Devers is up for sale for the Giants. His swing is made for Fenway Park. I would love to see Rafi Devers back here for this season. Just take his money. Okay, we've got a couple calls on this. I find it a giant wasted time to bring this up. There's no shot they would do it. I don't think. But if you can get the Giants, he'd some of the money, maybe. That would be a switch. What kind of pud would he be if he was forced to come back here, too? I just feel it's something that we, you say, but like I think it has zero point zero chance of happening. I don't even know if I want him at this point. Well, it's a fair question. You have enough left-handed power. I mean, if I had bats, anyway, not power, but left-handed hitters and prospective hitters. And where's Raff Devers at this point of his career and the money and, like, would they do it? And the water under the bridge and like, no. I don't think it's even a small percentage chance. I don't think there's a prayer they would do it. I mean, I joke about the money. Like if you can get rid of the whole contract and then get them back at $15 million per, not that it would be that low. But would you do it? If you could do that, I would say yes, but it ain't going to happen. Nick on the Cape with the soccer thought. Go ahead, Nick. Hey, guys. I'm a pretty casual soccer fan, but I've always enjoyed watching the

World Cup, following the national team. And I think this is really just shaping up to be a great tournament.

It's been really entertaining so far. And thank, thank God, Marty, to your point, we got something to watch with the current state of the

Red Sox.

One of the things I'm really enjoying is the commentary around these games.

I mean, these announcers, these commentators during halftime, they're not afraid to

criticize these teams.

Yesterday, before France broke through, they're calling them arrogant. They're criticizing Mbapé.

They're really getting into them, which I find pretty enjoyable. And I think last point,

Boston's really showed up pretty great to this thing. I think it proves we're a real

sports city when it comes down to it. Give us something entertaining to watch and we will

show up. Yeah, I think the turn's been add to Boston and I do think we've shown well on both those things. And the commentary is true. There's some good, like, they're not afraid. No, it's great. I mean, maybe because baseball could learn a thing or two. Well, there's so little scoring. they have to fill it in with, I mean, I don't know what the reason is. It's just the passion of the sport or what the fans expect, but it is. There's some incisive soccer commentary out there. I mean, you know, when you look at it, given some of the history of it, sometimes it's, you know, over the top. But the passion and the sport from the spectators is unreal. Sean and Salem on the socks. Go, Sean. Yeah, you know, these calls, I feel like just don't get it, and I'm glad you brought up the players, Belger, like Anthony or Crochet. Like, I think it's obvious that they don't want to play. But rather than having them around the team, like, just shut them down for the season. Like, see you later. If you don't want to be here, bye-bye, we don't need you here. Those aren't the leaders. Like, that's a good way to start the change of culture and invest in a professional GM like, I don't know, Mike Rizzo, who can produce real baseball players. But if you're going to have a bad attitude, just see you later. Bye. Okay, should they send Roman Anthony away?

No, it's too strong.

I mean, then you're sort of almost rewarding it on some level.

If the guy doesn't want to play, the thing to do is to make him play.

Your job is to reach him.

Yes, absolutely.

Your job is to reach him, help him grow up, help him understand the difference between being hurt and injured, get to him as a professional, as a young adult, whatever it takes. That's your job. You don't just send him away. Exactly right. And they're not equipped to handle any of it at the moment in any way, shape, or form. They don't have anyone that can push the buttons and get people going in the right direction. Jimmy and Foxborough on the embargo of soccer highlights. Yes, Jimmy. Well, you know what? You make a great point because, you know, they want to make money, but you had a great interview the other day with a guy was, and I'm sorry, I don't remember the name. Taylor Twelman. He was so fascinating, and I know you were fascinated by him too, because I could tell. And what he was saying is that, you know, like the Japanese, when we get a Japanese player, there's a posting fee that we got to pay, we get a job. And he's talking about how they got the Premier League has to pay some type of money to MLS. And kid from Ivy Coast we're going to get 75 million

what about all that money why don't they use that why do they have to like do this old stupid

streaming thing you know I mean well yeah you're kind of crossing streams the whole soccer world does

that I mean Premier league team sell players all the time et cetera I mean and Boppy's been sold

and renadal's been sold and Renaudel's been sold and
