What would you write you know book you try your best Andrew Try your best the idea put a number book up on the book. I'm like yeah, but try your best do your best buddy to your best buddy This game's count. No, they do this is a joke quite frankly to put on that young cat first day out He's a great. He's a he's grown man. Yeah, he's professional. No, no, no question But first day out the hopes of the whole city of Philadelphia riding on your arm tonight No pressure against the nationals who last night they didn't really rake They just blew up their way to a 13. What was it? 35 the nationals who most predict will win 65 games this year man blue day way to a 13 run game Good goodly move. No, no pressure. No, no pressure. It's only a must win in March
1:02We only want one game so far out of four no pressure. I can't believe we have a must win in March That is an amazing thing. I never thought we'd be here with a baseball team But and it is a must win and no mistake the voters are there here Have you changed your mind on this being a must win? I'm on here. It's a must win. No, it's not It's a it's a would really really like you to win tonight would really really do my psyche good To I think what you're I would really feel a whole lot better about coming to work when it's an I'd like for you to win for you I would I really hope you win because boy you don't win the night Lord have mercy tomorrow is gonna be rough at work They're lucky. We have a short show tomorrow. Oh, they are well, maybe they're lucky Well, we'll bring it to ours. Yeah, could you please win by the way? We we do have a show from the ballpark tomorrow leading into the fills and How do we go now? If they don't win do we still he's a new thing? He's gonna threaten every day not to show up if things are going our way. Yeah, you know Oh, you know what I already I know what's gonna happen I know I know how this AJ thing ends by the way the moment we get the notification
2:06Like if it doesn't break during our show. I'm leaving. He was gonna say I'm not showing up tomorrow. No, I'm going vacation. Yeah Okay, how much are you gonna settle? We'll ask I'm gonna leave out of the point. Where do you go? Point of Philadelphia. Yes. Yeah, for two weeks All right, we sometimes we put our foot in our mouths around here at WIP but not quite as much as these who don't want to play first Evan Turner Let's hear from every Turner. So the six years last night Well, yeah, they're completely better. What what a fraud this guy. So six years last night tough loss at the end down in Miami That game was back and forth and they just folded the last four minutes I always think that joe well wants the ball too much and wants to shoot jumpers too much with two minutes to go I thought that happened, but they all were not good with a couple minutes to go nurse and maxi and ambide So they drop again to Miami that does matter for seating applications But this caught everyone's attention before the game on the mbc You know lead into the whole thing here is Evan Turner making I guess make it a prediction on what's gonna happen We got to make john make a pick who you pick in in this game we got we have to I'm picking for the hometown. He Desperation and urgency. Yeah, well, I can't stand Philadelphia, but I'm
3:13Shout out to everybody out there. What Why is he bitter about Philadelphia? Was it our fault that he was not a very good number two overall back? He felt he felt slided. He felt like a slided. Yeah I guess that that sounds to me like he felt like he never was given a chance. Well, he's giving it He was giving a chance. He was a very marginal player. It's a number two pick in the draft. I vaguely remember Evan Being here or how state right every eternal how state right? Yeah I vaguely remember him being didn't he break his tailbone or something? Oh, maybe yeah I think college is something like that. Maybe he was in college of the pros one of me broke his tailbone I remember that but he's we did have a walk it back though He walked it back on Twitter. Yeah. Oh, what do you say? Philly y'all got to take it easy. I just be trolling not worth your anger. So his mentions blow up. I'm showing some Well, here's my favorite part. I'm showing some brotherly love. Uh Evan. No, it is worth it It is worth y'all anger man listen. It's not brotherly love. Yeah, you know, don't poke the bear to hold the whole definition screwed up
4:13He you know his weird he falls into a weird bucket where he was not a complete bus right he played 10 years in the NBA He hours about 10 points a game He had two years here. We average double digit points He wasn't a terrible basketball player, but he also for the number two pick in the draft was not good No, like you think you're getting a franchise change you play and he's just he's just fine. I think one year He finished like fifth and most uh, you know, uh, maybe six man of the year like that's the kind of player he was he was fine I love the good. Uh, I was I was kidding. Yeah Well, you one kid that they got after you. Yeah, it's exactly what they got they got after you last night and you couldn't take it I also forgot what his voice sounded like it's a very weird voice It's it takes you out of it. Yeah, it's out of the whole situation. So somebody um as people do on the internet pulled up old receipts Oh, no, it's an old tweet from them Um, I guess responding to somebody probably six years tenure for sure It was it he's disgusting experience as a player then I went to Boston learn what a real sports city was Oh, so he's been on this for a while. All right, you know it enough like like like yesterday with the cold put a sock in it definitely
5:15I'm not trying to hear what I mean good actually feel speaking of you know, we didn't bring up yesterday Now this reminds me of the um doc rivers Oh, the excuses that he made when they uh, said they just got eliminated from the playoffs. I got to pull this Yeah, so doc roots of the bucks are not going to be in the postseason this year and doc who's been a complete disaster in Milwaukee I mean then they give him like 40 million dollars to coach that team It's it's hard to find people that have stolen as much money in the last five years as doc rivers I mean at some point there's got to be a multi-state investigation on what that guy has done I mean he's stealing does this sound familiar to you? This is doc rivers on the bucks being eliminated from the playoffs It's been disappointing obviously since I've been here. I haven't had a healthy stretch and it's been your key guys It's been honest It's been Dame this year having only one quote unquote star every other team has two and three we needed health We were thin all the talking all that stuff probably didn't help either The guy's completely fraught a complete What is that? You know Is he complaining doesn't have enough stars? Found like he's got us in name It sounds like he was playing. They pay him a lot of money to be a very below average
6:19Wait, man. Wasn't Doc at home chilling and they call him. Yeah. Oh, he was He did exactly what they asked to do come here today You think I'll give him all that money and let him do what he does. All right. Why not? I've always thought there's a parallel between doc rivers and Joe Gerardi Both one as younger coaches or managers with teams that had a lot right the Celtics with doc rivers the Yankees with Joe Gerardi And then it's time went on they'd ever won again And then as they moved away from those organizations Celtics or Yankees you're like this guy's not even not a good of a coach Doc Rivers is not even a good coach I know but like he won't with the Celtics. No, yeah No, I can't get it but that's that's what could have put you on the bench. Yeah, that's that's the pool. Rondo They'd rondo and Perk. Well that team was a lot. That's the source of his complaining about not having enough stars He needs five. Yeah, I fairly know Like now an NBA you got to actually coach God forbid yeah, a lot of people are having trouble with that one. He stinks. All right one more guy speaking of coaching This guy put his foot in his mouth. This was today at the AFC coaches breakfast here
7:20You got to get your guy in order here Your former teammate Aaron Glenn who we know is enters the season second year in New York on a hot scene with the Kava Yeah, he's having a tough off season. So the Jets We'll go to Jets camp this year too. Well, you better help him out the Jets He needs help so the Jets traded for Gino Smith a few weeks ago to be the starter which All right, I mean the idea of him is a stopgap until they draft someone not crazy But Aaron Glenn going a little bit overboard with Gino and what he brings to the Jets something about Accorded back and I'm gonna say Accorded back with a chip on the shoulder Um And listen, he's proven a lot in his lead of what he's done. I'm especially when you take those time when he was in Seattle um Listen, he fits exactly what we're trying to do. So obviously we've created an identity the foundation of our offense Is it's pretty good now like I just feel like like he's the guy that's gonna lead us to the promised land He's the guy that's gonna touch the ball more than anybody else. Wait a minute now. Now you're getting cranked up It's that last line that really Promised land, you know what where is that I'm a defend. I'm gonna defend my room. Here we go
8:26All depends on what the promised land Yeah Joe Joe Is it the number one pick of the trend what is your definition of the problem? That's fair as long as it's not this revolve. He didn't say he didn't say superbow See it's he can see y'all y'all thinking That's what he meant maybe he meant When when the division maybe meant when six So your defense of our vision's not happening either your defense of our glad is he didn't mean what he said No, I'm like what's what's your definition of the promised land? That's possible because you can't be the sir ball You know what I'm saying? It's just like when you go out you go out you go out and you you trying to date You know you you out you say I just want to get a win. Okay. What's your definition of a win You know what I'm saying? It's like what's your definition? Is it's getting a phone number win? Yeah, is is you know, yep getting a kiss on a cheek of wind or is it like get the go to a crib? A win like what is your definition of a win? So as long as Aaron Glenn's promised land definition is
9:28Yeah, we're talking superbow. No, we're not talking so that's what I'm saying. So it's it's vague. I was your definition of a win promise land It's crazy As the Jets coach you just cannot be throwing that around Man, you know what I would say for coach Glenn my man my dog I would I would try to get I'm like hey man. We just trying to get a couple picks next Well, they won two games his first out baby. That's the promised land. Well gets get more picks And uh win it win some more game first pick I'm no I meant three games. I kind of start. They were three and 14. No I mean draft picks. I mean interception. So we're gonna do what your defense is supposed to do small goals small kids like yeah start Hey, man, listen, we got a crop for equal walk there because I tell you what man given the way to NFL is going and hot You know, they really had too many black hoes. He on the short leash dog. I'm just saying you got to do we we got to get a mini
10:31We got to get the defense play a bit well. Yeah, Hitch and your wagon as you don't submit the gate of the promised land is not helping Yeah, that's tough. That's a funny is the funniest thing about that you know Smith going back to the Jets thing is only the Jets could miss the good part of his career They drafted him. He stunk there. They got rid of him. He found it good. Now they got him back when he's not good again It's like how is that even possible? They will get some very jets. They will book in the bad parts of the guy's career And there's no problem. You know what the unfortunate thing is is that Coach Glenn who's hitched his wagon to that quarterback and then they ain't looking good for his problem It would be one black quarterback in one black coach in NFL next year because that's not a good That's not a good guy to hit your wagon to who's who's I can't even think of who's Wait a minute isn't who's not it's a top top one retired obviously and the dude in Miami, right? He's still there for did they get it Floor is half leaves the coach in Miami. Oh no Tampa Bay. Oh top balls are still there. Yeah, he's still so yeah That's gonna be then there was one because that you know because they were talking about firing Aaron this year
11:34Well, I'm gonna give him out of it. Yeah, he's how many games have to win a keep his job three more four more. No, he got he got at least win eight games DeMico Ryan's I mean, oh, yeah, DeMico. Yeah, they never told me co Ryan's an Aaron Glenn. Yeah, that's that's that's true It's not many. All right Dennis in Newtown up on WIP. Hey Dennis Hey, good afternoon everybody. So we don't good Dennis. We say hey You know Evan Turner and talk rivers examples of uh, you know People that are non-performers always kind of deflect away from themselves. It's everybody else or something else Well, the doc thing is unbelievable like that's the classic doc river. It is. We've heard that so many times here. Yep Hey you I have a lot of respect for you for holding that line I mean that line's getting really tight and thought If that thing ever breaks you got a duck brother. It's frame the No, I'm still here. I'm I have seen anything that has really you know made me want a waiver You know, I'm unwavered because you choose. Okay. No, because I. I kind of think nobody has anything that to make you think nobody nothing
12:38Nobody's indicated that anyway whatsoever that a j might be next year I kind of think that that's in June. Whoa No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no spider of the year is alluding Jeff there doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I don't matter. That's a lot of people. The dog doesn't matter, it's a new town doesn't matter. I grease doesn't matter. That's a lot of people. Spikeskin doesn't matter. That was strong. That was strong. You got to just shout. That was strong. That's it. You said nobody doesn't matter. I'm just saying it don't matter. Okay. Okay. Hey, you know, I think tonight, I think painter goes for innings. I think toppers have been going to be real conservative with these new guys, especially if he puts him well, just to build his confidence for the next start. I think he sat Crawl for last night, right? Against the left hander. Yep. So I think he's going to be real cautious with these guys. You know, I don't think it's time to panic, but you know what I'm thinking about is,
13:41I just wonder, this is a bad look for top four games in. I mean, nothing's working. You know, you know, Rocky Balboa, the arms on working, the legs on working. No defense, no hitting, no pitching. So I wonder, I wonder about that. I wonder if toppers impact is waning with this team right now. I wonder the same thing, Dennis. Yeah. And I wonder how long, especially considering the early portion, the schedule is more favorable. They face a lot of Rockies and Nationals. Like, how much longer will they let it go on? Because at some point it's going to even out, right? There'll be a bunch of Dodgers, and there will be the Cubs, and there will be the Yankees and Mats. And though, you know, just be harder to reel off 10 out of 12 against those teams. This is supposed to be the part of the year where they rack up some good wins. Yeah, this is not a good look right now. So I'll be down here tomorrow. I'm heading down here tomorrow. I'm actually just a decent chess pitch. So hey, have a good day, everybody. You gotta get it. Appreciate it. Yeah, Sanchez tomorrow.
14:41That's our, at least we have that. We have Christopher Sanchez tomorrow. Hopefully a win tonight. And then we take the series tomorrow. And we feel good before they head out to Colorado. Colorado. Colorado. To take on the rock. They got a sweet Colorado. They got to beat the brakes off Colorado. Well, you're setting the expectation to sweep. I mean, it's Colorado. Well, hold on guys. So I agree. It was a national. It was a national. But you know, you know where Colorado is different in the next. You know, we are sending Nola and Taiwan to the mound in Corsfield. So we're sorry. Yeah. Yeah. That's the pitching line up this weekend. It goes Luzardo Friday, Nola Saturday, Taiwan Sunday. Happy Easter, everyone. That's a huge way of played the fight. I know. It's so good. They'll get better. Let me write that down in the book. You write it down. What is it? Are they just do your best? They were. They were. Hey, Taiwan. Just do your best. I would love Taiwan. Do you want to keep that? I'll do your best with Taiwan. Keep that notebook. One day. We're publishing the notebook. Hey, inspirational thoughts. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
15:41Yeah. I can't wait till we forget the context, too. I tried my best. Try your best. Try my best. It's going to be. It's going to be hatred painter. Just try your best. They'll get better. They'll get better. Hey, Liz, just do the best you can. No. We set it up to Hughes doing a reading in a school one day. Here's inspirational messages from former Eagle, Hugh Douglas. No, what the hell is he talking about? Try your best. He'll do better. Hold the line. Hold the line. Hold the line. What is that? What does he mean by that? What does morons unite me? Why would anybody even want to be called a moron? You got to be. You had to be there. And why would I want to unite after being called a moron? Who is this guy? He just had to be there. Oh, he played football. All right. Let's hear from you people. You people. It's time to hear from you people. What do you need? You people. Well, Joe Giulio magic strikes again. What did I do now? Put Topra on the hot seat. We saw Don Mattingly by game four. Well, you. No, he's not. I'll tell you what.
16:41It's saying maybe Giulio was right. It's my fault the Topra got knocked out of the game. No, it's not your fault. I think they're actually giving you credit for it. Oh, okay. All right. Well, the tone felt more positive. Rob, I'm sorry. Rob. I'm sorry to rob. Yeah. They've got to have been robbing new people. Rob, we got to have better things to do. Never forget. Joe told us. Joe told us he was excited for the season. Just admit you were wrong. I was excited. I'm still excited. I'm less excited today. Yeah. I'm glad. That's it. That's it. I'm excited about tomorrow. We're going down there. Yeah. Also, how can you be wrong about being excited? Like, that's just how you feel. That's how you feel. Well, we do. Well, we do tell Huey's wrong to feel like it is good for you. That is very true. Yeah. He is wrong about that. Look, that's just ignoring facts. I know. Hey, guys, it's been four games. Are you sure you're built for 162? It's well established that I'm not built for 162. Yeah, I'm built to do this every day for 162. Again, people are not recognizing every day I'm reacting to the entire breath of the season. That's exactly right. I've reacted to 100% of the season. They have a 250 winning percentage.
17:43It's ridiculous. Last night was a quarter of the whole season. It was. And now tonight is a must win because it's 20% of the season. Keep up. Keep up. Speaking of, people really on Twitter still fall for the must win. But like we're idiots. Yeah, okay. I mean, the amount of comments on it is absurd. The fifth game. We got F-U-W-I-P. I'm not that bad. I mean, I don't know why. We go through this every day. People are not that bad. For asking if it's a must win, guys. It feels for asking if it's a must. Which it is. Yeah. And the best part is third of the fools. We're obviously kidding, guys. We know the Phillies aren't eliminated. Yeah, we know that you can't get to the playoffs. Yeah. What is this? March. It's March. April. You can't be eliminated or make the playoffs tomorrow. Yeah, you can't do that. Keep up. Again. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. That is correct. Tomorrow is April Fool. So if everyone just behave yourselves. I mean, probably not. Probably not going to behave. Well, you better be careful, because we can actually get in trouble.
18:45Yeah. Well, I'm not going on this way. I hope you're proud of yourselves for talking the AJ trade into happening. Yeah. Who's a bigger reason AJ's traded when he is. AJ or WIP. We might have to put that poll on. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We don't have to be happy. Hugh Plain's stuff you want. Who's more involved for AJ leaving? The Eagles. AJ, WIP. Yep. Where are all the Eagles callers to tell us that the Phillies are playing possum? Remember that was a thing last year with the Eagles? Well, that was the copes. They were not in fact playing possum. Oh, yeah, during the season. They're holding the good place. I never saw them. When did we get them? If they were playing possum, they forgot to get up for the Niners game, because they put up 19 points on the zombie Niners and had the ball to win the game and and could get the answer. Yep. Anyone with any ideas on how to get the show canceled? I mean, I do have an idea. If one of us just decides to say something completely over the top, yeah, I was
19:47going to say my advice is just patience. Like you will get us there one day. No, I like there. I like the walk the line though. I'm like Johnny K. That's the problem. Yeah, because I've actually get tripped. Johnny K. You fall over the line and then we're off the air. You know, Johnny K. That's why he's prolific. May I was. Yeah. I don't when I look at you and think of you, I don't think of Johnny K. You don't give off guy here. Well, that's yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. You know, things aren't going well for the fills when he was first words of the show are just dreams by Fleetwood Mac play story. Hey, don't just happen to win his reign. I'm just there. Players only love you. Wouldn't it play? Yep. There it is. They're going to come and they're going to go. Hugh, bro, that line is fading faster than your hair line. That hair line being gone, dog, but I bet you I love bedding and who else there it is 150 every single day. A couple more. Whoa, six dollars, you will never be able to retire. That was like an auction. I started to sweat. Fobox. I got I made a
20:47full out of that. Okay, we settled on four. We said we got we we did another bet because because with Joe told me, he's like, well, you're kind of working to get yourself by, you know, the two home runs, which is not. It's correlated. Yeah. And then the four of hitter run bad and somebody who won't make no one's on base. They both say, I was like, you know what? That makes sense. I'm a doing both. We don't do it for us. We're still a lot. That's double your usual. I know. We're doing them both because we need a money. Just do the best you can. He really does think he's in the midwest. Give it a try. Hey, participant face trophy, swear everybody. Yeah, not here. Not here. That doesn't that doesn't work here. Let's grab big V amount, Laurel. Big V. Big V. All right. Let's have a moment of silence for nine lives Douglas because he died on a hill last night with the pitching. All nine lives gone. Everyone on Oh, no, he just lost another one. So I think he's down to like three lives left. We should have a huge Douglas nine lives counter. Yeah, that was bad.
21:49It was bad with real caught. It was like dog. He ain't about to make it. We keep it plugged in. She's like, no, he ain't gonna make it. They batted around in the first. I don't think he's gonna make it. He's the best. He is the absolute best man. Well, look, you once again, you died on another hill. So we're going to pop your listen. Everybody knew at the beginning of the season when they talked to the Patriots, we knew that that's where AJ was going. We also knew that they would save a lot of money on cap space by announcing this June. So why is this a big media hype and everything? I mean, I don't get it. And by the way, you once you write that book, you know, you can get, you know, the, uh, the, uh, the book and floors are AJ. They're like, market that bad boy. Yeah, I'm gonna get somebody. I'm gonna get somebody when I do write my book. I'm gonna get somebody read on a sideline. Yeah, that'd be great marketing. I think I could probably get BG to do it. Yeah.
22:53In between snaps. It's just really huge book. I love it. Maybe a good phone call. Appreciate it. All right. Where's that announcement, by the way? I don't know. BG setting announcement at 11 a.m. Eastern. Can we miss it? Well, it's almost 2 p.m. Eastern. We don't see it. Do you think you meant Arizona time? I think it's about. I think I can freeze. I thought Arizona is two hours. Is it the full three? I can't be tracked three. I don't know. When I was there was two, but that might have been before daylight. I was there. I was there for the suitable. That's pre daylight savings. The mark. I don't think they do daylight savings in Arizona. Right. But there. Didn't it change some places? It changes. But when our clock changes, it changes at the time difference here. Anyway, let me look at the world. We got it. We got it. 10.50. We got to go. We got to go. After new show next, we'll talk to you tomorrow on sports radio 94 WIP. Peace.
