Right, hour number two, Felger and Maz, Felger here back in the A-hole chair, as promised. Right back to your phones, Jimmy and Needham on the Red Sox. What he got? Or on Jim Murray. Go ahead. Big Jim, what was up? What do you think of Rob Bradford's comments to you this morning about what you said about him before? And you too, Jimmy Stewart. Jay Stu's not in. I didn't catch it. And I'm sure it had something to do with my little diatribe on him the other day. What was your diatribe? Not a fan of his on-air work. And there was a column that he had comparing JD, saying that J.D. Martinez and Mookie Betts are better right now than Mani Ramirez and David Ortiz, which is ridiculous, you know, consider their playoff success. Okay, statistically they might be better right now, but we're what? You know, not even at the halfway point of the season or at the halfway predom the season. I thought it was asinine. And I went in on my personal thoughts on how he is on air, which I'm not a famous. And so he responded.

1:11.7

Yes, he did, apparently.

1:27.8

I was in bed this morning. I didn't hear it. You got me. I wouldn't let Murray talk about this yesterday. I said, Murray, don't even waste your time. Don't bother. Do it on your own time, your beef, your individual beefs on your own time. Joey in London, Derry. Why is something for Jim Murray, too? Go ahead, Joey. Yep, well, two things.

1:47.6

That confidence question yesterday, Matt, was that like what team's going to win the next championship? No. Or the future ceiling. I'm just saying when you look at the team, which one do you feel the most confident in? That's it. You define that however you want. Okay. with that being said that the Red Sox are built for the regular season, not the player.

1:45.7

They're not gutless bums but if their bats go silent in the

1:50.8

playoffs like they have that's when they croak because they don't cut the pitching so i'll tell you

1:55.2

built for the postseason i think there's something to that because a lot of recent playoff

2:00.6

success is bullpen heavy,

2:02.2

and their bullpen is frightful.

2:04.6

They don't have the kind of bullpen that these last couple champions are deep playoff teams have had.

2:09.4

And I'll buy that all day long.

2:10.8

I'm with you on that.

2:12.0

But for you guys to have more confidence in the decision-making of the Boston Bruins.

2:16.8

I didn't say decision-making. Well, confidence in the whole team and direction and decision making, like that whole thing. So it's not who's going to win the next championship. It's confidence in the operation system organization, right? So who do you have more confidence in right now? Dave Dembrowski or Don't Sweeney. Dave Debrowski. Why? Because he may not. Because he can pull out Daddy's checkbook and they're saying. He may not have won a championship, but he's produced several deep playoff teams and has been around and is a functional... Do you still have any idea what Don Sweeney is? No, but I do know this. That Sweeney has built a player development operation. Feels like he's on a nice, has it pointed in the right direction right now. Dombrowski hasn't done that in 20 years. Yeah, but he's gone to how many ALCSs, how many World Series? Yeah, and won none of them. Since 97, he hasn't won one. Okay, but he did win one. Okay, but again, 97, with a team he bought with someone else's money. And then again, so, like, look, all I'm telling you is that right now, I look at the, I'm not telling you I have a lot of confidence in the Bruins because I said this to Murray yesterday. What I question with the Bruins is the leadership, the management. You look atey's NHL moves, one bad one after the next.

3:25.1

And so I have my doubts there until, and until he can land a really big fish. And Rick Nash was a big one in his defense. Yeah, who sucked. They blew up in his face. Okay, exactly right. Bad deal. But even Tavares. They weren't the favorite, but they didn't get them. The Hannafin deal, they didn't make that one.

3:39.2

They wanted to do it on draft night.

3:40.4

They didn't.
