Welcome back to Morning Chris, hour number two, Scrappy says there's plenty of room on the bandwagon. Really nobody was on the bandwagon till about two and a half weeks ago. But it's getting crowded now, Padre's rally with three in the ninth, and then Robert Suarez coughs up one in the bottom of the ninth, but hangs on. 25th say, Padre's over Pittsburgh 7/6 today. Padre's get a little lucky for sure, they blew a 4-0 lead, they were trailing 5/4, loaded the bases on an infield hit and two walks in the ninth. One out, Kylie Gashyoka hits a double play ground ball the second base. They throw it a short for the first out, the return throw by O'Neill Cruz to end the game is wide of the bag by like a lot. Like it wasn't really close. No, it's hard to believe that a professional can throw up more before I saw my goodness. And Padre's score two runs on the error, Luis arrives, follows with an RBI double. And before you know it, Padre's have another come from behind victory, just one afternoon after they came from behind with a run in the ninth last night. And then went on an extra innings to beat the pirates. They finish a three game sweep their first in Pittsburgh in 13 years. Jackson Merrill is heroic last night with the two home runs, including the tying home run. And you know, look, the Padres have it going on. Manny Machado to true on Homer early today. David Peralta almost hit one into the Allegheny River off the top of the fencing out there behind the seats and right field. But the Padres would cough up that four nothing lead. I don't, I wasn't, you know, given notice that Carl Edwards Jr. had been called up to the major leagues to replace Alec Jacob, having right before the game, no kidding. So out in the sixth inning, Vasquez, who had pitched shut out ball until then, gets into a little trouble, runs scored, couple of guys get on. And here comes Carl Edwards Jr. And I'm like, who's that? Well, I mean, I know who it is, he used to pitch for them, but when did he become a part of the club? When it was the end of the ball club, they sent Alec Jacob down and Carl Edwards Jr walked two guys, gave up a hit anyway. Next thing you know, it's a four or three game. Andy makes a great play and incredible on a dribbler with the bases loaded by Isaiah Kiner Filefa that would have tied the game against almost any other third baseman and baseball, but Manny came in and threw him out. They keep the four or three lead. Then Mike shilt surprisingly, I'll say rather than inexplicably, but surprisingly stays with Matt Sui in the seventh with a couple of right handed batters up and Joey Bart takes Matt Sui deep for a two run homer, just like that Pittsburgh leads five four. But the Padres erased it in the ninth with that three run rally. San Diego has now scored in the ninth inning in seven of its last eight games. Really? That's a lot of drama and a lot of clutch and a lot of, you know, things going on that are, you know, good for your ball club. Potters are only one for eight today with runners in scoring position, et cetera, et cetera. I will say this, I don't like dumb baseball. All right. I don't. You know that. Yeah. Yeah. And what is my name going with this? What is my number one pet peeve? Base running dumb base running in the ninth inning. Oh, we talking Joey Bart. Joey Bart. What are you doing? Oh, he was trying to make him he was trying to make a play. Why? I listen to Jesse and Scan on the radio, but do you get it? They're down two runs. His run means nothing. I get it. He needs to be on base so that the next guy can maybe tie it with a home run. He doesn't need to try to stretch a single into a double. 100% good. It is so stupid. It is. And he's a catcher and he's slow and he would have been out if the ball would have ended up in Louisa rise glove instead of rolling off to the side. Scan said. And the game would have been over. Scan said that the way he read it was, well, first off, he said, Joey probably shouldn't have run. But secondly, he said, jerks and pro far kind of slowly got to the ball and slowly 3 16. That's why he went. But it is a dumbly because it could have ended the game right. So stupid. I cannot stand dumb baseball, even if it's the other team that does it, I just, it just boggles my mind that these guys can make it to the major leagues and not be smart enough to know that with two outs and the ninth inning down by two runs, you do not try to stretch a single into a double, especially when you would have been out. Do you think a manager comes back and says to him, I hope so like, hey, I hope it worked out, but don't do that again. I hope so. I mean, I guess you have to say something to Joey Bart because he obviously doesn't know he's obviously stupid enough to try it in the first place. Oh my goodness. I hate dumb baseball. That was dumb baseball. It worked out, you know, in the sense that he was safe and, you know, the pirates scored one run before Suarez got out of the inning, but anyway, that's the way it goes. I'm going to ask you about Matsui first because I got a lot of comments about why is Yuki Matsui in the game and, you know, there have been certain times where Yuki Matsui hasn't gotten it done. But when I went back and looked at his stats, every other story, all three of his appearances in the month of August, he did not give up a run and he didn't even give up a run before that until July 9th was the last time he gave up a run and earned run. Okay. So are, where are we at with Yuki Matsui? Are we feeling good about Yuki Matsui or are we not feeling good about him? Yeah, I think they're feeling all right about him, you know, right now. Obviously they are. They stayed with him in the seventh inning when they should have gone to Jason Adam. And you know, you have to believe me when I tell you that's not a second guess. The first guess, as I'm sitting there watching the game, I'm like, Oh, good. Okay. Base it to right. He's coming up. Here comes Jason Adam. Yeah. And then no, here didn't come Jason Adam. It is strange. So, you know, I disagreed with the, with the notion right there, but here's the thing with Yuki Matsui coming into the game today. He'd only given up two home runs all year. So, you know, you're not thinking if your Mike shilt that he's going to, you know, give up, you know, a shot, not a home run, right? Number one, number two, you probably didn't have Tanner Scott available today. He threw a lot of pitches last night. Yeah. Didn't look great doing it. No. You had to save Suarez for the ninth inning. What I didn't get was why you don't bring Jason Adam in to get the last two outs of the seventh and then pitch the eighth. He didn't pitch yesterday. Jason Adam, I'm a certain is capable of getting five outs for you, but they didn't do it. And it almost cost him. What can I tell you? I didn't agree with a couple of things Mike shilted today, you know, it just goes to show. When things are going your way, you can overcome, you know, some questionable managerial moves. You can overcome some, you know, some questionable plays. Yeah. Jason Adam has gone to innings a few times. Yeah. So, I didn't get, you know, I just didn't get that. And it's the way Mike's shield always goes. If you notice, he loves to bring a reliever in to finish out an inning and then start the next inning. He does it all the time, but he didn't do it today. And Joey Bart hit the home run off Matt Sui. And like I said, almost cost him the ball game, but, you know, the way things are going now didn't cost him the ball game because, you know, Neil Cruz throws the ball into this into the stands. I mean, I wonder if Mike Schilt was just trying to stay away from Jason Adam to begin with because they still have three games to play against the Marlins this week in the bullpen. I get that, but you can't. You got to go with Jason Adam. That's why he's here. This guy's capable of pitching, you know, two days out of three. He was, you know, he didn't pitch you last night. It was a perfect opportunity to bring him in, get Bart, get the next guy, and then, you know, go into the eighth inning and, you know, finish out that game. But like I said, last night, they made more than a handful of mistakes and they still won. And we couldn't say that about this team in April, May and June. If they made any mistakes, it seemed like they lost because of those mistakes. Right now they're just like shrugging them off. They're like, yeah, anyway, same goes for comebacks. There was a period of this season where the Padres would go into the ninth down and you're thinking, okay, this game's over, there's no way. But now I have to watch throughout the end of the game. It's just the game's not over with this team. Well, you feel like they're going to win almost a big game and that's a different feeling. Well, when you're 14 out of 16, you are winning almost every game are coming back and winning against teams. It makes you feel good about yourself. Of course it does. It's a big deal. Look, the Padres, even before this hot streak had, I want to say a handful of wins earlier this season that gave you a feeling like something cool could happen. It wasn't. It wasn't. It was not last year's team. Wasn't it? It wasn't it? It ain't nothing. They came back against the Cubs. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I know hit that home run. Yeah. You know, there was all those Washington games where pro far comes up and, you know, clears the bases with two outs in the ninth. I mean, they have had what they have five walk off wins there in a span of two weeks. This is a team that had to walk off wins the whole season last year. Yeah. So they've shown even before this hot streak that, you know, they're a gamer. They've kind of established that. And now it's really starting to pay dividends the way they're going right now. And you know, if you look at this, 14 and two, one of the losses in the 14 and two was in Baltimore. They were down six nothing in that game. Good point. When they came back to six, five, they made it a game and then Manny hit one to the track and the guy Mullins, I think made a beautiful cast to save the day. So they lost out. And the only other losses to the Rockies and we already know that, you know, the Rockies are a pain in the butt, but that's it. Yeah. That's it. Those are the only two losses on the whole ledger. So, you know, it's a great, it's a great thing right now. And, you know, the Padres were nine and 23 in one run games last year. That's brutal. Today was their 15th one run victory this year. So brings it here to my eyes. It does try not to sob on the air last year was torture, try not to sob on the air. This year was torture too. I'll try not to cry. All right. Very good. And as noted earlier, there are only two and a half behind the Dodgers. And if you really want to get greedy and I do, there are only four and a half games behind the best record in all the baseball now, which is the Phillies who play in Arizona tonight against the Diamondbacks who are almost as hot as the Padres. Can I say that it's nice to see Kyle Swarber crush a team outside of him crushing the Padres? You have three. What's that nice? I really like Swarber and what he is because he can hit the ball in the country, he can. You've got to love a guy that can just step up and hit the ball over the moon. But you're right. It seems when he does it, most of the time is against us. Yeah. Three homers against the Dodgers. He just annihilated them last night. And I will say this. Dave Roberts got ejected from that game last night, first time all year. And people might say it might be some frustration. Dodgers aren't going. Well, no, that was an awful call. I don't, I don't get what Hunter Wendell's debt. His dad was an umpire of, of pretty well, you know, thought of umpire back in the old days. Okay. Harry Wendell's debt. But Hunter Wendell's debt, he didn't run in the family. Well, I know you love, you know, when, when people get stuff on, uh, on, uh, because, Oh, because yes, because her dad was something I, yeah, I'm not saying Hunter Wendell's said got it because of that, he's been upping a long time too. But that call last night was stupid. And what happened was they bunted the Phillies did the, yeah, the Phillies did. And the Dodgers third baseman came in to field the bun, turned around and through to the shortstop, Rojas was coming over to cover third base. Well as he's catching the ball, his foot landed in front of the sliding runner. And Hunter Wendell said ruled that it was obstruction. And it just wasn't obstruction. Rojas had, did not put his foot there intentionally to obstruct the runner. The throw took him there and he caught it and tried to apply the tag. Dave Roberts lost his mind and he should have lost his mind. That was a terrible call. I, I, you know, I love it when it happens to the, yeah, I love it. How'd it happen to the Dodgers, but, you know, it was, it's stuff like that kind of bothers me. Hey, bothers me too, because there is clearly a rule. And then all of a sudden the rule doesn't, the rule says that it's obstruction. If you intentionally put your foot down or leg or knee or something in front of the guy to impede the runner, but he was not intentionally doing that. I don't understand where that call came from. It really hurt the Dodgers. And then Shorber took care of the rest of the game because he was ridiculous. Three homers, seven RBIs, matching one ball deeper than the next. He can hit him a long way. My Dodgers friends are very quiet right now. Good. Very quiet. Keep it, keep it that way. I know. I've got to stop getting ahead of myself because the Dodgers still do lead the division. We're flying high right now. We are. We, and we should be. We should. We've won 14, you know, and two. I mean, we should be flying high. All right. Daily gambit. We'll take a look at some winners and losers and the rest of what's going on in sports on this Thursday after traffic on Gwen and Chris. I do it while making coffee. I do it in the car.

Alright, welcome back to Gwen and Chris. 321 is the time, Chris Ella, Matt Scrabby together today in our Odyssey Palace Studios. We'll be on tomorrow, short program will be on for about an hour tomorrow, but part of the show tomorrow will be a visit with Brian Hoeing, the other guy acquired from the Miami Marlins in the Tanner Scott trade. Should we ask him about the others that rude? Well, he's playing in Miami tomorrow night, so it seems like it might be a sensible thing to, no, I was going to say to him about to ask it. Well, yes, that would be a sensible thing. Oh, you're asking the other guy, like, because I asked Michael King way back when I said how did it feel to be the guy in the Juan Soto train, and he was like, I don't, I didn't feel like I was the guy, so I kind of felt weird about the question afterwards, not because of Michael King, just because myself, but is it rude to ask him that? Yeah. Okay. You know, I wasn't going to ask him some derogatory way, you know, the Tanner Scott is low as the centerpiece of the deal, you know, to ask a guy, hey, you know, you're kind of an afterthought. How did it feel? But he's not an afterthought. That's the thing is like, yeah, but I get it. It's a, it's a weird question. Oh, good luck with that. I will not be asking. I'm just telling you. I'm trying to save you. No, no, I'm not going to ask you. You know, utter embarrassment. Okay. It won't be an embarrassment. It would just be. Okay. It would be an embarrassment. Let's go to today's daily gambit. Shall we? Do you like money? I think about money. Do you like money without doing anything? Da, da, winning. Do you want to make money while watching sports? I think Washington is immortal luck. Washington, woohoo! If you answer yes, this is your segment. Just don't blame us when you lose. Nothing is ever your fault. It's your game. Take it. Gwen and Chris go through the top bets of the day in the daily gambit on 97.3 The Fan. Couple things I need to address here first before we get into daily gambit. Our daily sports bag segment here on Gwen and Chris, please everybody gamble responsibly. I would like to shout out Dominic right now, who is watching our show, Chris, flying to the West Coast. Dominic is a Padres fan in Baltimore on the plane right now. Watching the shows. Thank you. Really? He's above the earth somewhere. Yes, he's 38,000 feet somewhere. I like that. Dominic, if you know where you're at around the country, let me know because I love that sort of thing. He's probably over Dubuque Iowa. Are you maybe? Of all places right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. He's right above you. Right above you. And I was like, oh, who is that? Well Joel the Kid. It was Joel the Kid. Joel the Kid said, I love listening to your station. I'm always listening to YouTube. He was actually listening to the game as well as we were talking. So shout out to Joel the Kid. And Joel the Kid is just a kid. Obviously. I don't know that he's a kid because he's a bug person, like a exterminator is what the word I was looking for. Then why are you calling him the Kid? That's his name on YouTube. Joel the Kid. Oh, I see. Yes, Joel the Kid. I thought he was just a youngster. No, no, no, he was Joel the Kid. It wasn't a 12 year old spray for spiders. I didn't know. Which by the way, the spiders are really bad this year. Causing havoc. I'm getting older by the second. All right. Last thing, or actually no, let's just get ready to it. I've got to give myself a little pat on the back because when I went to Iowa, I downloaded the Draft King Sportsbook app and I made some bets Chris much to your dismay. And I made a couple on the Padres. So this is how much fun you were having at your family reunion. You decided that you needed to gamble in order to put a little fun into your life. Yeah, yeah, I wanted to because we talk about it every single day. I wanted to use the app. I wanted to do some in game betting. But I did a parlay Chris. I put down $10 of my hard earned money on this parlay. It was plus $650. This was for the game the Saturday or no, Sunday game against the Rockies. So the Padres had to win on the money line so that they did. They won 10 to two. Matt Waldron had to throw over five and a half strikeouts. He did. I believe he had six. Okay. And then Manny, this was the hard part of the parlay. Manny needed over one and a half hits in the game. So he gets his first hit in the middle of the game. I'm thinking he came up again. I don't think he got on base and I'm like, yeah, there's nothing, nothing going to happen here. I'm going to lose the parlay. Manny, in the bottom of the eighth inning on a second hit, cast in my parlay, I won $75 on this parlay. So I was very proud. You started with 10. Yes. And you finished with 75. Now total what I came home with, if you can say that, I made some other bets and I lost all of them. Chris. I came home. I came home with $70. You're not supposed to tell us about the ones you lost. You're supposed to be like every other gambler out there. As far as you're concerned, you only win because I never hear about losses. I will tell you my losses. We tell you you are losses every single day, but this was actual money that I bet. So I finally won a parlay. Please, please listen to the, listen to the guy who introduces this segment. So she gave a response. Yeah. I got a little carried away. Yes. She did. I started making bets on Logan, Gilbert and Zach Wheeler. I'm like, what am I doing? Yeah. What did you get? That's what you get. Anyway. Yeah. By the way, we just have some fun making some picks here, but I will say this straight up. If you are betting on the two NFL preseason games tonight, call gamblers anonymous. You have a problem. Yes, you do. If you have to bet on a game that nobody who is playing in it cares who wins, you've got issues. When nobody knows. Just look yourself in the mirror and say, wow, I bet like $200 on the Giants tonight in a preseason game, just check yourself right in. Yeah. You've got, you've got a problem. If you need the action that bad, then you've got an issue, don't bet on NFL preseason. I will extend that to betting on e-sports, which is video game sports. Having said that, we can make some bets. Well, we can pick the games and that's what we're doing. Giants are favored by four over the lions tonight, preseason football. Now these two teams have scrimmaged all week. Oh, they've been getting fights. We've gotten into like 20 fights. Yes. So tonight actually might be worth watching. Do you care to pick either of these teams? I mean, how do you know who to pick? I don't. Nobody's playing in the game. It's the first preseason game. I'll go with the lions because they are getting points. That's what I would do too. New England six over Carolina. Again, I'm only doing this because at least it's hinting to me that football is coming out. Patriots. Panthers. Panthers coming off the two and 15 season. I think they're going to have to show what they got tonight. I'll take the Panthers. Oh, wow. Six. Jeez. I didn't think that. Take a new England. Is it Gerard Mayo? Yes. I don't know. The coach of the Patriots. I don't know. Do I think that they're six point favorites? I mean, should they be six points better than anybody? The Patriots. Tom Brady's long gone, right? Yeah, I'm going to go Panthers. All right. All right. You said Gerard Merrow. Very good. New England coach. Carolina coach for like, oh, for like 500. I know this. Alex. I know this. He came from Tampa. He came from Tampa. He was a Tampa offensive coordinator. Really? Yes. You know that much? I do. I can't remember his. Is it Manny something? Carolina. I'm typing. Oh, you don't even know. You're asking legitimately. No, it's not Manny anything. But he was the Tampa babe. He might have been his name is Dave. Dave. Oh, you think you got this? Dave. You don't got it. Morales? Kind less. Oh, OK. I was somewhat close. He's from Carson, California and went to college at Azusa Pacific just up the road. What's he doing in Carolina? Don't know. But he's a he got a head coaching job, makes his debut tonight USA women's basketball 17 points over Australia. Semi finals tomorrow. They've been cruising. They've been cruising. I'll take the Americans. Yeah, I would say they're rolling tonight. Hunter Green against the Marlins. He's been great. It's been great. Seven and a half strikeouts over under. I would have to think over sounds like an over it is the Marlins and he's been striking out everyone Phillies and Diamondbacks tonight Phillies are favored by one and a half on the road against the Red Hot Diamondbacks. I'm going to take the Diamondbacks. They're hot. Yeah, the Phillies have not been great. As you've been pointing out throughout the show, Diamondbacks have been good. I think it just did take two or three from the die years. I'm going to say Phillies pitching matchup is Jordan Montgomery against Colby Allard. Oh, yes. Colby Allard is on a Phillies. So with that in mind, 10 runs over under sounds like some offense, I'll say over 10 runs. Yeah, I will too. All right. There we go. Some fun, fun games to pick. But again, public service announcement. If you are wagering on one of these NFL preseason games, check yourself right in. You got problems. That's just crazy dumb to do. It's it's pretty. It's pretty bad. I know I'm speaking to a bunch of people out there right now that are like, ah, crush. Yeah. Let me do my better. Let me do what I want to do. But the problem with preseason is you just have no idea. I mean, yeah, I mean, I'll give it to you. If you're betting a, you know, game and you, you know, you've analyzed it and you think you know who might win or whatever, at least you're putting some intelligence into your selection. Joel, this is like, you know, this is a flip, you might as well bet on flipping a coin, which people do. You do. For the Super Bowl. Yeah. Joel, the kids says Hunter Greene has been good for my fantasy team. So Joel, the kids listening. He told you proven that he was telling the truth. I like Joel, the kid. Yeah. I like his name. Yeah. But I think our countdown is next. And along with our countdown, there was a crazy story that came out of the Olympic games today that might even tip over into the political arena. Oh, no. I won't go there, but I'm going to just let you know what happened today. It's, uh, it's worthy of a note. It's coming up next when Gwen and Chris returns. All right, welcome back. Gwen and Chris, 338 is a time really interesting story at the Olympics today. We'll get into it as part of our countdown, which is a Olympic flavored today. Chris, I'll match gravy together in our Odyssey Palace studios. We normally do the countdown on the Friday show, but tomorrow we have only an hour with you. Yes. So we're going to do it today. But before we get to it, Scrabie, I want to remind everybody, actually, I guess I don't have anything to remind anybody of what are you talking about? I was looking ahead on my board. Okay. Well, I'll remind everybody anyway, if you love Mediterranean food, try Spiro's for authentic Mediterranean cuisine, corn out of La Jolla, Petco Park for dining or take at options, visit spiro's cuisine.com. The best. All right. Check traffic, then countdown. Wait, what about your new story? I'm going to give it in the countdown. Okay. It'll be part of the countdown. Okay. From the 97, three, the fan traffic center. Here's Kelly Dannock. I'm still going to find the home avenue off-ramp blocked off. Right down 805, I'll do to a pole that knocked down in an accident. Now on the south outside of the 805, El Cajon Boulevard off-ramp, there is a collision involving a motorcyclist. This could actually be blocking lanes on the main line of South 805, so just watch out for some confusion there. Further south on the 805 before the 54, stalled vehicle in the center divide. Eastbound King Freeway passed college, got an accident bombing a motorcycle that's blocking the right lane. Northbound side of the 163. Just passed the five, two vehicle accident over to the right shoulder. And they reopened a lukeaty on-ramp to northbound five post-lane ahead that shut down for a bit all due to an accident involving an overturned RV. So we're going to find middle lanes blocked on northbound 15 valley parkway with a collision behind Kelly Downick with Gwen and Chris San Diego's #1 sports station, 97.3, the fan. It's now time for Gwen and Chris. I think they're taking Little League Baseball seriously enough. I do. They have replay now in Little League games. Yes. Yeah, can't miss a call in a Little League game. No, it could change everything. It does. Yeah. It does. I don't know. We take life a little too seriously sometimes, but that's just me. Uh, Chris, Elo, Matt Scrabie, Gwen and Chris, countdown. Top five events that we've enjoyed at this year's Olympic Games. Top five events that we've enjoyed the most at this year's Olympic Games. And among this, I'll give you the story that is going down today because it's part of one of my picks. You want to go first? Oh, sure. What's your #5 event of this year's Olympic Games so far? All right. I'll give you the first #5. Oh, gosh. Yes, I just said, oh, gosh, Matt, on the radio because I messed up. My #5 is going to be something that you didn't see coming, Chris, and I wanted to get one of these random sports on there, but I sat down and started watching Trampoline and watched it for a good, solid 45 minutes. I enjoyed the Trampoline. It's really awesome. I missed it. I got to say. It's awesome. How high off the Trampoline do they get? 20, 30 feet. Three stories up in the air? Yeah. Yeah, it's crazy. No, come on. It's 30 feet. They do crazy things. They get as high as the 10 meter platform and diving. Yeah. You get that high off the ground in the trampoline. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And then when they land, they do the same thing everybody does. They try to take the spring out of the trampoline. I was watching this thing. This dude was doing twists and turns like I've never seen before. And I had a really good time watching Trampoline. Trampoline. Yeah. Number five. Yes. All right. Number five for me. This is more surprising than trampoline. I haven't surprised myself by enjoying this. Okay. Synchronized swimming. You talked about this yesterday? I did. They have come miles and miles in synchronized swimming from the days when they just raised an arm out of the pool to doing twists and throwing people up in the air. And the act, would you say moon walking underwater? They absolutely did it. I don't know how they did it. They have so many their moves are amazing synchronized swimming is like a whole new. It's a whole new animal. It's nothing close. It's like really impressed, really impressed because I was expecting, you know, just the same old. Do you remember when they first came out with it and they had those little plugs that plucked their nose and they just they kind of looked silly. They don't even have that anymore. They've moved past that. Or they have like wax up their nose now. I don't know what they do, but they don't have that ugly, you know, deterrent, but they did the moves that they made. I like how they cover it too because really impressed. The camera angle is halfway in the water, halfway out of the water, and you can see everything that's going on under the water, which is almost incredible as incredible as what's going on top of the water. They tossed some lady out of the pool with a back twist. I know. It's good. Synchronized swimming. It's not your mother's synchronized swimming. It's not your mother's synchronized swimming. It's not your mother's synchronized swimming. I like that one. That's a good one. Number four. My number four is something that I usually love to watch during the Olympics, but this year was even better. Did you see the Turkish, Turkish, a sharpshooter, Chris, Chris, that I didn't say his name, Turkish sharpshooter? No. He is this. That's obvious. Shooting pistol. It's a pistol event. And this dude, everybody has these like crazy glasses where you have like magnifying glasses on your glasses, and you look like some super villain. This dude just wore his regular glasses, and he shot with his hand in his pocket like he was just down at the shooting range on a Sunday afternoon. And he was cool, cool, calm, collected, and this dude was kind of a star. I really appreciate the shooting because it's just fun to watch, and those people are so good at shooting, but that specific event with the guy from Turkey, big fan of you. The cool dude from Turkey, did he win in a medal? I believe he did. Good. I should know. Cool guy from Turkey. On the shooting. I remember four for me was the men's 1500 meter race, which was one in dramatic, thrilling like jump off the edgier couch fashion by Cole Hawker of the United States of America. I don't know if you saw the race. I did it. I did it. 1500 meters. You had the two big favorites. One guy was from Norway, the other guy was from Great Britain. Nobody was going to beat these guys. They were out there. Basically, the 1500 meters was to see who the best was between those two guys. And the guy from Norway had the lead the whole way. And in the last turn, the guy from Great Britain passed him and raced by him. Looked like the Great Britain guy had it. Lo and behold, on the inside right along the rail came this American Cole Hawker who was only the second best American in the race. And it was like the Great Britain guy was looking over one shoulder, Cole Hawker snuck through on the rail and nipped him at the wire to get the gold medal. It was awesome. And he set the Olympic record by doing it. The guy from Great Britain said, hey, you know, you know, applause to him because I would have set the Olympic record had I won. So he had to beat that. It was a, they called it like the upset of the Olympic Games. It was really something. I got to go back and see that finish. Watch that finish. Cole Hawker. It was a race finish when you get to your little thing later, but that's a good one. Yeah. By the way, the Turkish shooter, he won silver as a part of the Turkish team, not in the sole competition. He was a team winner. Yeah. But here's a picture Chris of him. This is the other guy to the left where he has these like crazy glasses on. And then he just has regular reading glasses. Did you really have his hand in his pocket? He did. He did. He was like, Mr. Cool, Mr. Cool, Concollected. All right. My number three is something that I wish I could do. Like if I could say, I want to be good at something maybe for a day, skateboarding. I love skateboarding. You like the skateboarders. I love the tricks that they do. I love all of the skating. I'm a big skateboard fan. I watch skateboarding videos in high school. I tried to be a skateboarder, probably the worst skateboarder on the face of the earth. So I can't do it, but I love watching skateboarding and I watched a lot of it in the Olympics. When I was in high school, I was a year ahead. My mom graduated me ahead when I was young. Okay. Oh, we have a genius in the room. If that's what you want to call me, go right ahead. I'm not going to stop you. But my point is, is everyone was driving when they were a sophomore at junior because they were 16 years old. I was not. Oh. So in order to get places, I skateboarded. Were you really that mean? No, I cannot believe that. I couldn't do a single trick, but I could get from point A to point B. My skateboard took me everywhere back in the day. Wow. You were good at it, huh? Not a surprising deal. Like, just didn't fall? Because one time I fell so hard, I never did it again. No, I was moved along nicely on my skateboard back in the day. All right. All right. What was your number three? All right. Number three for me was the walking. The fast walking. I'm just the fast walking. You know, there's nothing funnier than watching these guys waddle around the Eiffel Tower. It's just, I don't know what it is. It makes me laugh. Yeah. You know, the elbows are waving, the knees are going, the hips are swiveling, and they're just cruising along. And as I mentioned yesterday, the guy who wins walking gets the same medal as the decathlon champ. So why not walk? Why be in a hurry? I think he'd Malcolm in the middle. Do you remember that show? I do, but I didn't see it. Brian Cranston's character got into fast walking for a little bit. He did. He had to pray. He did. That's a good one because those are fun to watch as well. The walking. Number two. Now, number two, I got to tell you, Chris, I was betting this morning and I almost put down $50 on Scotty Sheffler to win the gold in the golf event. He was plus 900, didn't do it because I listened to my inner self, but I should have because Scotty Sheffler won the gold with a 62 on Sunday, because we were two hours ahead. I got to watch all of the golf, like the golf was in prime time where we were, and I watched each round. I didn't see much of the golf. I was following it though. I know Shalfley had the lead going to the final round. Sheffler shot a 62 and then in true Olympic, you know, it makes the Olympics is when they played the national anthem and Sheffler just broke down. Yeah. And then you're talking about one of the most steely-eyed competitors in all of sports. But when he heard that anthem playing for him, it meant something. He was reflecting on his year of being arrested. I think that's what it was. He had quite the year. Scotty Sheffler. Yeah. But yeah. The golf was really good. Really good. Really good. Good tournament. Yeah. Number two for me was the table tennis. I really liked that. I'm telling you, man, these guys play incredible table tennis and the gals. The rallies are sensational. The serving when they toss it up and they spin, I really, I can watch that all night. And I did a couple of nights. Really? Enjoyed a couple of the table tennis. Yeah. I don't have to know any of the competitors. No, no. Just enjoy watching that sport. I guess maybe one of the reasons I like it is because I can play table tennis, but not like that. Like, it's a whole different thing. What they're doing. Yeah. I mean, I don't even know how they do it. They're like machines. The thing is moving so fast. And they're hitting the table. I mean, you know, the table's not that small and they're having no trouble. All right. Going with the same thing here, uh, I think, uh, well, I'm going to go with swimming. I don't know. I love swimming in the Olympics. And it's been fun to watch like because they have the new graphic that tells you how fast they're swimming. And I found that very interesting because you can tell when someone's, you know, gaining on another person. But I also found it interesting when they dive in on the first lap, they're way faster than when they come back, which makes sense unless you're, um, Katie Ledecky. Oh, yes. Katie Ledecky. Yeah. She does. I also saw a video of Katie Ledecky swimming with a glass of milk on her head. And she did the freestyle all the way there all the way back and she didn't spill one drop of milk. That's incredible. It was chocolate milk. Chocolate milk. Sorry. Correct. At least I got this. I saw the same video. Okay. I never wanted to impress you as much as impressed me. It did. Okay. Uh, number one for me was the 100 meters and the finish. Yes. Going to win the gold medal over the Jamaican guy, uh, you know, just incredible. I mean, I like the 100 meters to begin with, but to have a finish like that, that'll be people will remember that forever. Yeah. That was crazy. Uh, it was awesome. So that was my number one. But that is what leads me into my story. Yes. Today. Yes. Yeah. We got a couple of minutes for it. We do. Uh, can I get some real quick before you go into that? Can I get some honorable mentions from the chat? Yeah. Uh, Jacob says climbing. A lot of people. Oh, I heard about the speed climb. That's what I told you about yesterday. Yeah. That was incredible. Peter Parker. They're way up the, uh, the board. Uh, we got some, uh, uh, equestrian. I saw the question, which by the way, some of these views in the Olympics were amazing. The equestrian, you had Versailles behind and then the cycling, you had the, the, um, Eiffel Tower. I like that. But equestrian does, just, I can't. Sorry. Yeah. If you, if you show me a horse, if you show me a horse, put him at Delmar. Those don't make him jump over steeples. And last one is, uh, breaking, which hasn't started yet. I don't think breaking is even started yet. So we haven't seen it, but it might shoot to the top of my list. Who knows? Who knows? Anyway. All right. Here's the story on Noah Lyles that I think is going to be, you know, going to be create some controversy if, if nothing else. Um, and if you don't want to know what happened in the 200 meter Olympic final in the race, you want to watch it tonight, I don't know if they're ready for two minutes. Yeah. Turn off the radio for two minutes. Uh, but no, no a Lyles went for the double. He got the hundred in that great race. Today went for the 200, uh, he finished third today. Got the bronze medal, but here's the story that is going to, I think create some controversy. Maybe I'm wrong. And hopefully I'm just wrong and it goes away, but it won't. He told reporters afterwards, he ran the race with COVID-19, it had it. He tested positive for it two days ago. And he's had COVID ever since Tuesday morning, you woke up feeling the chills, you know, that's when I had it. That's what I had. I gave you. You gave me those chills, but he had the symptoms. He went and got tested. He tested positive. I'm just saying there's a lot of people probably somewhere that are going to say why in the world was he even allowed to race who allowed this to happen? You have COVID. You're supposed to shut down, stay away from the rest of the world. I don't know if that's the thing anymore. I would have to look at their COVID procedures, because this does sound like it is against some sort of rule. Doesn't it seem like there's somebody somewhere who's going to be upset by this? We haven't had a COVID test positive. Let me start that over, because we haven't had a major league baseball player test positive for COVID in a while. So I don't know what they would do. I mean, they would remove him from from the team. I can't imagine, even in this day and age, four years after the whole pandemic, but can't imagine if I don't know, jerks and pro-farts tested positive for COVID somehow, he'd be in the lineup. Yeah, I can't imagine that either. So this guy ran for the 200 meter medal and had COVID. Anyway, I'm not going to try to, I'm going to leave the whole political thing to the rest of you out there. You guys go ahead and fight that. I'm just imagining there's going to be somebody somewhere who isn't thrilled by this. And then there's other people who are going to say, what's the big deal? There could also be people in the race that are like, Hey, I am, you know, I don't handle co-area. I'm not a good person with COVID. Right. It's a very dangerous thing in, you know, for me or my family, or I'm going to learn how to talk in the break, Chris. Would you please? Yes.
