| 0:27.3 | Mendoza, bro. Fernando is in the news. |
| 0:29.9 | Well, we're certainly not talking about Carlos Mendoza. |
| 0:32.4 | No, no. |
| 0:32.7 | If he doesn't win tonight, out! |
| 0:34.7 | Can I tell you it? |
| 0:36.2 | When I woke up this morning, I do the same thing. I woke up this morning, got some Gabagool. And I look at my phone and like, is everybody alive? Okay, everything's good. I always check my phone first to see if anything, you know, bad happened. That's usually what I do. I'm like, everybody's alive, okay. But as you get older, you have to hold your phone back a little bit, right? |
| 0:55.0 | Yeah, I know. And I know that's a terrible mindset, but I really, you know, I look at my phone, everybody's alive. All right. And then I woke up today and I had the excitement of nudie magazine day. Just to see what happens with your Mets tonight. I am so into the story, bro. |
| 1:12.0 | It's like watching a train wreck. |
| 1:13.7 | It's like, are they going to pull themselves out of it against the twins tonight? Because if they're going to win any game, it has to be tonight. Mets are going for 12 losses in a row. Well, they're not going for that. Well, they're not aiming for it, but they might be heading toward it. You know, interestingly enough, listen, we're not even a month into the season. And you could argue that Kavino's already won our $1,000 bet. So just for like the pure joy of your best buds baseball season, you want them to pull out a little bit. No, I mean, you can't, well, it's not that I'm ever rooting against your Mets in that way. |
| 1:44.5 | Out of curiosity as a sports fan, it's like, it's hard to lose 11 games in a row. |
| 1:49.3 | These are professionals we're talking about with a hell of a lineup and a hell of a payroll. |
| 1:54.0 | So there's just some serious interest to see what happens tonight. |
| 1:58.8 | But in the world of sports, you also got your basketball, you got your 76ers Celtics, Trailblazers, you got your Rockets, Lakers. That was the other thought I had too. Like, ooh, is KD playing? Lakers tonight, let's go. Every day I wake up and I'm like, what do I have to look forward to today? And then there's a new report saying Austin Reeves is further along in his rehab. And you know what I get out of that, Danny G? We were just talking about this in the hallway because the previous report was Luca was closer to being ready than Austin Reeves. Now they're saying Reeves is closer to being ready. That just means they're both right around the corner. So if the Lakers continue winning, if you get the the full squad back, dude. How important. How important to go up to O at home for LeBron tonight. Oh, it would have been nice for the Knicks to do that yesterday, but they blew it. All eyes on the Lakers. In fact, we're going to talk NBA today. We're going to have Big Poppy stop by for some baseball trivia. Right. We're going to talk about your boy, Danny G. Carlos. Not Carlos. |
| 3:24.4 | That's right. We're going to talk about your boy, Danny G. Carlos, not Carlos. That's my Mendoza. I got the worst Mendoza. You got Fernando Mendoza. We'll talk some NFL draft, which is, my goodness, two days away. Fernando. We will talk about Fernando. And in fact, two days away from Danny G. doing Abba. Remember we made the promise? That's right. But right now we're broadcasting live. The Fox Sports Radio Studios from the mean streets of Los Angeles.
