It will be the end of the original show. The end is nigh not I was going to say I've never heard of that. I've heard of delay delay delay delay delay. I was a guy very spiritual over this one every week oh why were you sending them nice text messages I don't think I've received one text. Yet he hates Steve down and I say really glad when are you leaving and I'm not and I had to text him Merry Christmas sounds like while I don't take say Merry Christmas yeah I know I didn't marry him and I want to see their. You didn't I don't know I got Merry Christmas from Isaiah though. I thought you were right no I sent you one and you were like. Oh I think I sent him 1st though. Because kind of surprised on a says a while to go back and check the tape I say he's actually very good about texting on holidays I didn't get a Happy Hanukkah text from you guys I don't know what it was I was going to text you on Christmas saying Happy Hanukkah but whatever you celebrate family Hanukkah holiday. So what he does day 7 so you know how Christmas of the sale I like Walmart's and things after well there is Hanukkah someone sale and I almost bought it was like I don't know if you would ever use this. It's the thought that counts so. So did you anything special over whenever a. No I visited family about it. It's always fun I mean it's far and you know they make citing. Well you just went to New York got to see snow for the 1st time I know. Who. It was entirely and it really it was only a snowball or anything my older brother did to my dad he was in New York City it's not that's not a place where it's just like. I think we're going to Hell no they could avoid which is why it was no no very dirty especially towards like the end of the day well you know that's when all becomes lost Yeah you know it's very we had a Stemberg don't you go to St You know my mom had to wrap her around my arm so she can win lose her balance Oh no sound over there I want a little too many drinks Sammy began a muscle. My dad would slip so I don't want both my parents going down so someone got to pay for college. They're going. Now I mean Madison let's see you walked in today with different colored hair yes you must have a good one to break I did fancy football I know I didn't see that I see that achievement but we're not talking about that right now we'll talk about that. Later . Yeah it's all around us was down but I guess not but yes for all our valued listen there is me Madison man so I cut my hair and I dyed it purple and actually I must say my purple hair has been a hit I don't think I've had one person tell me it looked bad my dad even liked it like oh it was a pretty like no no I thought that he owed I'm my dad yes right oh man he's crazy those Judge man told him yeah so I walked into his house and I was like hey with my purple hair and he made the face like he was going to make some sort of comment and nothing he had on that he along with that comment Bill he was like. Actually I really like it it does actually look really really good and ultra violet happens to be the color of the year so let the record show that I dyed my hair purple before it was cool there's a color of the year every year and this year Violet it's really pretty. That year of the Ultra Violet also the year the dog oh really i think i'm an ox in the Chinese I am I am an artist as well I think all of us or maybe on the score Oh yeah we all are awkward because it's. Well know 96 I'm 97 the maybe I'm not an ox No I think you're tours you know. I'll google that during break and our selves sounds good you know we'll have to be we have to be aware of what. These Chinese care creature we are you know if I care if I'm out to say thanks for valued customers certainly yours like what is this Wal-Mart Oh are valued customers we don't make money off our listeners No I am making it official on i Tunes We're going to charge a dollar for our podcast Oh my God we have customers and we will go from 2 listeners to negative to listen I. Want. It evens out to 0. All right so let's go ahead and get started so 2018 started off with a bang I guess you can say for Arizona State the men's basketball team had a perfect non-conference record they worked their way all the way up to what was the highest 4 or 3 match the 3 was the highest Yes it was because like you said I say they match the highest and still is under oath that the next week no they don't they last so there was a mistake in men's basketball which coming into the season we all said was going to be a fringe you know possibly for last for in the 1st 4 out for the n.c.a.a. Tournament is now the number 11th ranked team in the country when they only drop in farther if they get all the way up to 31 point and then they've stumbled a little bit here after having a perfect non-conference schedule they are now one in 3 to start Pac 12 play and then the women on the other side their non-conference play they beat the teams they should have beat and lost to the teams they probably should have lost to and they have started to apply for a no and they are now the number 17th team in the country on the women's side so guys who has had the more surprising start to conference play the one in 3 men or the 4 no women. Of the say the men just because I knew they would stumble in fact while play was unrealistic for them to think that they would go undefeated all the way through to the national championship game as an attorney you know thing yes they're going to pull it and tell you how beautiful it is it's amazing to think about how you got your hopes up kept them grounded. But this is still a successful No no I definitely. You know I really I'm not surprised the last Arizona I'm not surprised at all to Oregon last night it's probably more just a little surprising also to Colorado even then Colorado be Arizona of killing them so would tab oil saying fiery comments about Arizona after the games and then air and then Sean Miller for Arizona saying that he cannot reach his team Yeah even though there's been a lot of excuses from him this year about why they don't show season it has been that's how it's felt like right that it's just been excuses from him from the very beginning they haven't been succeeding so they have to come up with a reason why they haven't been so I don't understand why for them this has been succeeding but the same time you cannot say that you cannot reach this team yet there the number 1415 is a very different really Yeah exactly you cannot say I could understand that if they were like oh when you know they just have $3000000.00 And like they he thinks they should be higher than what I think we can really probably should be higher than they are yeah but I think he's doing this so to lower the expectations Yeah of his players which I don't think it's the worst idea yeah but it's almost because this is the team that everyone was saying this is the one that he will find no break into the final or that and it's almost like he's doing all this so then when they don't reach the final 4 it will be exactly he says I mean failure Yeah it's almost like he's preemptively trying to save his job even those jobs on the lawn if they then get that far it could. I think the men are by the more surprising they should be able to beat Oregon State Saturday and I think I don't know who they have after that. To their moves again next week and they might they might have the mound schools here in this town but yeah I think the men are more surprising I think for these acts reasons you listed I think the women's team is more surprising because you talk about the men's how they got off that fast are. And we kind of knew they would struggle a bit we knew that it wasn't they weren't capable of winning all the way through and so we kind of knew we all expected we've talked about of that they should lose to. Arizona and they did you know we expect and I honestly wasn't tried organ just because like yes they're not the same team as last year but they're still a good team and so for that it's kind of like like we kind of figured they would stumble and so to me the ones who started that surprising like yes they should probably be 2 in 2 maybe $3.00 and $1.00 but we knew they would pick up losses along the way were for me the women's team I don't think this year expectations were really. Like tempered down like there weren't a lot of high expectations Yeah and so for them to be 4 no against 2 ranked teams in Cal and Stanford Stanford Ok I know I don't say that we're getting close that this team is performing better than last year's team and I think it's already surpassed Yeah because a last year's team was a high as they ever got ranked it wasn't 17 No I think they got to they were only times by dint of the highs they got yes I mean like for the Women's I was a really good year and they have no seniors like everyone on this team is coming back in Must a transfer. And you know it like you said it is really surprising next year's going to be in a maze yet isn't phrase you ask you all will have a fun senior year for men's and women's because men today are only adding better recruits Granted they'll lose Tory holder who right now is the best player so I'm going to Shannon Evans and it was just this whole is everybody though the guards Yeah look at the same time Remy Moore and has looked a very impressive he looks like next year he should be able to carry the team at least back court wise I don't think they played him enough yesterday as they were when I saw him play a little dog played in Lot non-conference might the few games I was able to watch on the East Coast I was able to watch the Kansas game and he played a lot in the Kansas game and he was part of the big one you saw they won and since then it's almost like they tampered him down I didn't have a lot of kids areas that I can convert but they have not played a lot and not just because they've been a much tighter games they just don't throw him out there but I would think that when you would be as he's shown that he can play in like the crucial minutes that's when they that's when they broke away from Kansas is when he came in and he would just drive the rim and he is a flip an acrobat down there not noticing that he provides a different aspect like drive in and kick out the whole other to just just to get the 3 ball where the other guys they kind of just sit around the perimeter I've noticed Yeah so well he's an energy body to my defense yes he is so how many minutes to play. I certainly don't mean it was a lot I mean it's kind of like how little there are many only 15 minutes here today only one of 2 and you know the only play to bench guys they he found this tiny back on the body early 6 man they do a quad lake had 20 minutes and then. Come on ours had 5 minutes in fatality I will have one minute he missed a 3 pointer and Hurley talk about it for him as the 3 pointer who I really hope they don't go back to how it was last year is like an hour in a play or 5 guys 38 minutes of the game now. It will be interesting I think that probably more surprising I would have to say probably is the men just because of that just because of that perfect non-conference start that they had and see that's my only argument for why it's not as I think well no I mean you knew that they were going to be losses but yeah Ok the Arizona lost Ok that's what we're going off the organ loss should not have been a loss in my opinion organise a completely different team than they were last year they don't have the players that stepped up for them last year so I think that the Oregon laws I think is probably fair to say it was disappointing loss yet it's not as strong Oregon team so yeah I think that that is probably their. Worst loss I would say because Colorado would have been their worst loss but then Colorado just wiped the floor with you a day so that made it the Colorado loss doesn't look as bad at the time it was their worst loss but now it's a Oregon has probably now if they lose to Oregon State I don't know what's going on and we did. Unranked Dorgan say they do have the Bay Area schools which should be 2 wins if they could just stop reach Travis that should be 0 when it's a callous not good not even the mound schools are here it's already you could argue they could probably win the next I don't count out Cal Ok. They've lost the Schama nod. Over that is exactly. Schama knowledge it's a school hall and Maui they're in Division 2 and a Cal loss to them by 20 they lost because they were distracted they play in Hawaii Yeah they played in Maui Yeah they were way more than 10 years and then you go to the anyone with a loss of that team Kentucky would have lost about half of that team they were more interested in the grass star here more of us will play 4 on 5 it will be them. Because we'll be focused yet I won't be focused on Hawaii I'll be knocking back drinks and I'll. Let you know that your plan he wanted the call I got even mad What are you talking about. Oh right they were going to take a break so I guess I can call so I can get my alcoholism under control so out of control kid I know this this coffee doesn't just have coffee in it so we'll be back in a 2nd n.f.l. Football playoffs are underway and the divisional round either could be a great weekend or an awful week and we'll talk about that when we come back and listen to Upon further review here on Blaze radio your local student station.

Calling Welcome back to Upon further review here on blues radio. It's a clean version yes. I can tell that this is one of those. One of those you know the song. This is my favorite song. When he walks out to from his letters with a plain business Yes that's what they play in the bureau when I when I'm writing it's just a montage of me right in my hands moving in this song playing I'm going to I'm going to you know what I'm going to do that's is what goes on when he goes to pitch a story a Paula. I'm going to try to be in that key a commercial you know the one that's like that killing is in the building and that guy walk in and that's all I'm going to do I'm going to be part of you that I was like what no I will tell you guys about my favorite commercials later I've been talking about a complete is it. Better I would love to be in an Ikea commercial absolutely love it hey if you're like me and you like cheap furniture that inevitably has extra parts which has extra part. So anyway there's no way to transition from those trying to think if there's a way to but there's not I guess you can say that there are or extra teams in the legal who need extra parts you know the Eagles need extra parts there you try to say better than me better than what I could come up with I attempted it that's what counts exactly it's come already constructed no assembly necessary they know their act together. But there is some the assembling to do for this playoff picture but did it transitioned All right so the n.f.l. Playoff picture is now a little bit smaller we are in the divisional round the Tennessee Titans defeated the Kansas City Chiefs on what was one of the most amazing slash disappointing games of the n.f.l. Season it was horrendous if you like good officiating let's just say that it was horrendous if you like a good football play it was also if you like good play calling it was a run this is the craziest game I'm getting such a rush I'm so excited to talk about the n.f.l. Oh that game was crazy because being Chris where we're at my house and the Chiefs were waiting like 14 to 0 in there Lee running away with this game and then we went and got dinner with dog and we look up and we saw that the Titans one were like what ha. Yeah you think Andy Reid deserves to be fired can we can you let a 100 injured John there does not just get I mean. I don't know he does exactly what he did a fairly he under before I know here's the thing he over forms I mean that he eventually got fired in Philly though because he underperformed too many times he's got to the playoffs 4 or 5 times he's been there but once he gets to the playoffs he doesn't do anything at one point you fire him I don't know I mean one point of Bengal fire Marvin Lewis I had to get the number that I'm so mad about never there will never fully be that he must be an amazing talker from photos of someone because there's no way you should still be on that team there's no way the players have buying into him and you know there is not I don't understand they're like hey we have a e we have a bland quarterback and and they don't just get a blow and let's just make sure we have a bland coach we remember after the Bengals Texans game. Thurston I gave words as your wide level that alignment on the shovel back when we heard a.j. Green I'm like oh a.j. I'm a part of the in the locker room the way to explode like that the way that a.j. Green just talks in press conferences you can tell that Marvin Lewis has no control over at least him but then again I don't know how many coaches would have control over a.j. Green. He's trying to be the next Cinco de and knows my mindset Well I don't know how good of a coach Belichick is so you're going to put up with. The Chiefs last of the Titans so the Titans are moving on and then let me see at night game that with the Rams Falcons Rams and the Rams I don't to say laid a dud but later they showed there and experience I guess would be the best way to say it in the playoff week 17 hurt him by setting their starters no really I think that I think is just inexperience you know you have a stage Yeah exactly I mean you're going up against Elena Falcons team who was murdered in the Super Bowl Ok let's not say murder but they were they were in the Super Bowl last year and they also have a head coach who has been to playoffs you know most of the time that he's been in the court an 8 or an assistant coach before he became a head coach and you have Matt Ryan who you know Matty Ice ice in his veins never never feels under pressure and then on the other side you have the Rams with a head coach that has never been in a situation like that and it's also extremely young you have Jerry Garth who he took more steps than anybody this season in the n.f.l. You have Todd Gurley who I mean you know just hasn't been in that situation before so I don't know I'm glad his team was good I like early Yeah I know him for fantasy next year. I think that the Rams are definitely good Have a good trajectory in front of them I think Al by Coles was the reason why his aura of was just around the feel like some had 2 weeks because they just looked so rusty like they could not get anything going off in the Falcons are known as a defensive team you have to play guess the late in the season that's what carried that team but you don't know the found in the defects and did you see the way Jamaica Rob Lowe shredded that rams to no matter who was one of those starters to make Rob shredded every team that he went that he ever was a good shot of the Jacksonville he was embarrassed the fans hey he didn't ask for the Colonel's deep it's when he came of that one drive. After he did throw touchdown though he did for a touchdown I'm pretty sure on that we don't count no. Sounds like it's yardage that's what counts Yeah now go up go up will be interesting like I hope he succeeds I think that he deserves to succeed but at the same time it would be god awful Fike next season they started when. He looks so. Everybody got a contract to Atlanta. To get Super Bowl next year 000 last night was for the 6 wins 6 when it was all and more guys can really imagine that when total that's what I expect next season I told you guys I don't raise expectations I wanted 4 wins and I don't want to 6 wouldn't you say they have the same thing I would also go on your expectations after they got to the Super Bowl. For the following See there's a ball. Let's just get there again. Ok All right so anyway those were the just all the bad he was the only one talk about the n.f.l. Players because of the Lin 16 they threw a parade in it was so brazen charity money I like it I like that they threw a parade I was happy you know they I would not matter anyway someone that last game against the Steelers that would have felt you know that I want to tell you the fact that he dropped that pass was so brown is like heart breaking I know she was the Lions team we laughed at that alliance I was 16 there's grounds to be able to go bad we won in 31 in the past 2 seasons you know I still like you Jacksonville I'm my crazy person thinking he's a good coach you know no I don't he's a good coach but he deserved another another year there will be he got fired I don't need to fire he started he's been the pioneer of this rebuild let him get one more season once he can maybe find a quarterback in this draft but they actually have a g.m. Now so well that's true they aren't gone there are no longer there yeah they fired Ryan Grigson Yesterday though the Browns mostly really pointed it out or what was he the one there he was about advisor something with lowered No wonder they were so bad. So then the Sunday game started off with Jacksonville against the Bills in what was possibly the worst playoff game in n.f.l. History and it's no wonder why Ram I'm sorry I'm out of touch down right correct there is no cite and are in the 303 game was a true. People still watch it that had a high yield like rating and I was quite surprised it was a terribly I would watch it but I was driving honestly I think a lot of people are kind that rooting for Jacksonville secretly I would agree Mike like I will readily admit that I'm rooting for them because I like their whole underdog story I think a lot of you would have probably from Buffalo. Yeah I guess is rooting for maybe because of the war in Iraq storyline where he got benched and then they were just for them being in the playoffs for the 1st time in forever. See how they fit into the Bengals Yeah yes it was on the wing than donated and you don't get tired of the $80.00 charity thing was cool I was very cool Well they gave up the chicken wing what they donated the chicken wings and then the Bangles gave it out to neat to intercity I do know that you know they gave it to to an inner city they went to I don't think it was quite homeless shelters but you know like low income areas they went to and that's cool and gave out the chicken wings Yeah that was so the only reason I'm not rooting for Jacksonville is because of Blake Bortles I am tired of him being there he's not part his alarm is the used the national chain. For that yet still not a good quarterback so anyone else I'd probably root for him. So anyway so that happened the worst playoff game ever and then the night cap for that game was the Saints and the Panthers and that was probably the best playoff game of the week in the 1st half was kind of the 1st act was better the 2nd half was good and the Saints came out on top I think. That's the team that should have came out on top out of the 2 so now this upcoming weekend we have the Patriots hosting the Tennessee Titans. We have the Pittsburgh Steelers hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars the Minnesota Vikings hosting the New Orleans Saints I got it Sam Don't you worry and the Philadelphia Eagles hosting the Atlanta Falcons so. I finally got to the question does who do you think comes out on top. Or we're going to see in the a.f.c. Championship in the n.f.c. Championship Well the one thing I like with these divisional gays is a lot of matches you know people forget that states Vikings was the Monday Night Football season opener this year we want Adrian Peterson revenge. Of the summer but . That's Ok and though he gets a lot of this wound around the Saints won the Super Bowl he gets a ring doesn't lose that. Because he was on the team up with a certain date they have answers that are going to play Oh really I mean yes play I think you should be on the team has 30 years on the active roster Oh I thought you had to be well no practice squad players get them to yeah yeah they all everybody in the organization gets on even like the people who work at the stadium Yeah you know like the equipment managers do like everybody. In the a.f.c. . I think it's going to Jacksonville New England even though I haven't I would not be surprised if the New England I wouldn't be surprised if anything it was like 17 point underdogs that tight Yes it has went to that matter follow it but that's just me. Because I was a. I think I have an alcohol problem here as I'm going to get you get yaml in for oh that's what happens when you're raising Arizona with all these Indian casinos you're like yes. The Titans have gone to the quarterback a lot I don't know how I feel there's New England often it's just has not both that great to me or this defense this is not like the story of new we do that only. The killer that is Jerry was a little great until you want to play the brawn and the Cavs yet they just play right we'll just play playoff Ok let's actually we'd. Like to earn the right to their season the Cavs and I don't know what right yet let's not run any sets and then during the playoffs I like alright for 397 but I am a little sick 75309 yes that sounds amazing. So yes I think a little when I think the home field will help them and I think Jackson will be Pittsburgh the Jaguars real big bed big then if you do 5 yeah. You think about how you handle games so I think I know we talked about retiring after the games I know I met does not have it in me anymore Blake Bortles got his 1st career touchdown under his belt hope he could eclipse 100 yards passing me as a milestone for him. I just transfer him where you're going at least he doesn't throw interceptions that's one positive holding onto the ball the entire. Family that's what Peyton Manning would do back when he was really good with the Colts up instead of throwing an interception he would just fall to the ground just yet he drops dead so it is going to hit and then. They need to bring him into love to do that and you was like all have. Yes I feel be jacked Pats in the a.f.c. Target in the n.f.c. I think will be Saints Falcons I think it land will be Philly I just don't think their quarterback situation with that good when they're not good to the house whence they really are the worst team in the boy if he should sign royally. It's sad to say the bills might have been able to beat the Eagles Yes I would. Then I want to talk about it. Yeah so I think Atlanta's good beef I think Atlanta is a scary team I've been there when I got hot at the right time and all of it well they squeak did and then they're going to let me say that. As they are then I think the state will be the Vikings I just don't have a case Keno will perform in a playoff game that's just a complete unknown with me and this was a rather young team so they did make the playoffs 2 years ago I guess but it's still about healing team if I Love case kid you guys are kids and I tell you should start but it's been really good at least stuck with Key has played very well and I hope that can you imagine if they end up bringing back a moment letting Bridgwater walk and I would be opposed so I'm. Not as old as I thought it was I thought I was like 3334 is like 30. So I'm going more basic here I mean to be a Pat Steelers a.f.c. Title game again and frankly that's going to be fun to watch it to improve in that Brady just abolishes them and I mean if you mean n.f.c. South championship game same Falcons I think that of the 2 best teams left in the playoffs now I do you guys say that the Steelers surprise should be in the patriots of us of the review no no they should only have should have been a victory All right so for me before the season began at my work you can go look at it it's pointed up on the bulletin board I had a Falcons Steelers Super Bowl Hunter and what the Falcons winning I think that they get the revenge I didn't think they would be this bad after Shanahan leaving but as far as how they started the season with the Dolphins but they're coming around they finally have realized hey if we throw the ball we're actually good. Play for us to bowl. So I have the Steelers Patriots as much as I would like the Jaguars I do think that it is going to be Steelers Patriots for the a.f.c. Championship in the. And if the championship I think that it's going to be Minnesota Atlanta I think that Minnesota I understand the unknown Case Keenum but he's playing in a very familiar environment being at home so that will help him a lot and I think that if they go into the game and just tell him hey we weren't supposed to be here you got us here just keep doing what you're doing and we'll be fine as long as you go out there you don't try to put pressure on him the same thing is what the Jacksonville should do the same thing with Blake Bortles don't put any pressure on him just say hey listen we weren't even supposed to make the playoffs this year you did you not only lead us to the playoffs you lead us to a playoff win so just go out there and just play your game I am ready to jump through a wall of Alexander you know that Harmon words I'm going to everything you're saying but it's all good Ok well there are times where disagreements there are times for us to talk about them that time is not right now we have to take a break so when we come back Major League Baseball is in the off season and the normally fun hot stove as it's called has been a complete does nobody signing they all just want to be free agents so we will talk about that when we come back you listen to Upon further review here on Blaze radio your local student station. Nation college radio days on October 6th but the celebration doesn't end there look forward to more ticket giveaways local music news coverage and play by play right here on plays radio online dot com.

And much more. Radio Show. Every week. Every Wednesday from. Downtown Phoenix is the most important area of Arizona maybe even the world. This fall radio and downtown. Talk show. Radio there are always so many opinions about sports every week come to no one cares about your opinion my opinions the only one they actually care about guys stop wake up and review it all with us on Upon further review every Friday 9 am to 10 am 1330 am Radio online. I think he still has the. Skills don't. Know don't know. Is the correct number the way to get. Them back to Upon further review here on Blaze radio your local student station so Major League Baseball is capping off a really good 27000 season with a really bad off season so. There really hasn't been any major major signings yet so far and this is almost historically late as far as going this long without having a major signing off with the obviously there was the stay and trade but that's not a free agent signing that's a trade and then I guess you can. I guess you can say the Otani is you pronounce his last name I guess you can say that the Otani signing that was probably the biggest one to the angels yet to the angels. Gotta love my trial and that's the only reason they got him I would imagine so give him credit yeah pool halls he's the one that really helped him out so what has been up with the hot stove why do they call a hot stove guys you always know I don't because usually there's a lot of rumors going on and like you never know what to believe it's just classes that are just as catchy name for a t.v. Show and it will be network add 8 am Eastern. And I don't know why time you know the timing of the exactly I have no idea Ok anyway none of them like for really catchy nickname. And they'll be off season. So. Yeah this has been a complete does you all being the baseball experts why do you think that this is been such a. A full offseason I want is one reason exactly I know a lot of people early on blame Stan because no one knew where he was going to go and what people blamed Otani because they know he was going to go no 2 problems have since been cleared up and it's still kind of weird to think about it I think the biggest thing is this year's free agent class is nowhere near as good as next year's free agent class and teams want to go after next years and so they don't want to give these free agents money because they're trying to reset their luxury tax. 2 after next year's free agents so you have a problem with teams not wanting to give money and players wanting all the money because they don't want to be undervalued and so it's just cause this big standoff that you don't know what's going to happen and that's the biggest thing to me what it is. Yeah I think a large part is that people want to save money for next offseason I think that's the simple reason. I also feel that teams are trying to explore the trade market as much as possible like the rays they have their whole roster available. You have other teams who are in shit like give the pirates with Gary Cole an agent because sion. Josh Harris and so people are thinking the hey we might be able to save more assets and more resources to going into a trade rather than signing a free agent we have not had a free agent sign more than a 3 year contract and we're in early to mid January and that's amazing we had nobody has had more than a 3 year contract and a lot of people who have been relievers Yeah it's the most really crazy thing is I think the biggest neighing to go with probably Carlos Santana and Jay Bruce side this week he just signed with them but those 2 are the biggest position players. I mean the fact that they're still j.t. Martinez Lorenzo Cain Eric Hauser and those are 2 teams that weren't expected to do a whole lot like the Phillies who have a ton of money they decide to go after Santana and I know a lot of people just as how they might try and go after scam Yeah yeah a lot of people thought that Phil if I got to Harper you never know how much I don't next year yeah seriously the foes will have all the money in the world and actually only have $1.00 players signed at a con or 2 now if they sign Santana to players on a contract next season. I think the it's just like you all are saying they're trying to save money. But. I think. Part of it also yes well the trying to save money is I think that these teens while there is no salary cap these teams want to have the flexibility because that's all people care or you know that's all that really these franchises care about in any sport is being able to be flexible that's why in the n.b.a. You see teams always trying to sign team friendly deals opposed to player friendly deals and that it's been different in Major League Baseball where Major League Baseball teams have always in the past been Ok signing more player friendly deals because oh we'll get this player for a long time by thing now you're starting to see. You know they amount of money that the Dodgers have on their payroll the amount of money that you know remember years ago what's it been 6 years ago 7 years ago now where the angels had that huge payroll which they're still paying off to this day and I think that teams are starting to have a different mentality about that especially with the really good free agent class that's coming up next season I think that these teams want to be as flexible as they can someone like j.d. Martinez who wants to sign a 6 year old $180000000.00 contract that's not going to happen for him that's why I like Sam said it's very surprising Oh only these 3 year deals that's because I think Major League Baseball is going through a switch where they are now starting to wanting to sign more team friendly deals and I'm not talking about team friendly deals as far as. Kwaito deal where Ok we get him for a few years and then hopefully he'll opt out maybe he'll opt in we don't know what's going to happen and for the Giants honestly Unfortunately for the Giants he decided to opt in. You know he's coming off of the I guess you can say injury riddled season I mean he is kind of injuries and at the same time he was just kind of down on it really but he didn't have a awful So you know the knowledge about it is standard Yeah exactly needs to should be more for the amount of money that they signed him for it's not exactly so you know I think that I think the teams are just starting to maybe have a switch mentality and I think that that's actually cool for Major League Baseball that they are going through that switch because it will lead to a brand new baseball landscape in it's going to take a while but I think that you could see in you know 5 years where it's a completely different landscape you don't see these massive deals and less you are the cream of the class and less you are will be like the big No you don't we can be for like the top 10 players exactly you will see next year Bryce Harper many Machado definitely will be office out Kershaw if you those are the players that you will see sign major major deals but I don't know if you will ever see a stand contract again all be honest when you see a 10 year contract I don't know if you will ever see that again maybe when Chris Bryant it's free agency Christmas or what Harper I thought was an 8 year deal with Harper really yes we're going to have massive longer deal of price but you know how much hot it will be the 8 year deals will but I don't know if both of them because what's their age 2526 you know they're young I know but you know you're deal like 303034 years like just when like they leave their prime I know but that's the thing is now back to longer player up for their entire prime No that's not bad but the same time these players may want to be like you know what let me sign a contract Oh they might want to let me sign a contract to do your deal let me get let me sign a contract where I get out at the age of 28 so I can still sign one more. There on the whole Iran just every year of a 1000000. Because if I were a player if I was a player why would be nice to have the financial stability of signing that 8 year contract at the same time I might want to pull a hey let me let me get a contract work where I can opt out when I'm 28 and then that way I feel this way they can still find your deal with an opt out no that's very true for your deal you know that's very true so like you said I was a of these top 10 players in the league will still be able to sign player from the contract by I think you'll see a switch where the rest of. Let me rephrase that top 10 players as far as the top 10 pitchers are in their own separate category and top 10. You know. Top 1015 players in general Oh see I think that if you're a top 10 pitcher or a top 10 fielding players last d h then you'll be able to have it be 2 separate categories and I also feel that they have said this I don't. Talk about this every day of the slow moving hot stuff so if you have these jobs again younger and more analytical and they're saying those trends that players production goes down in their early to mid thirty's and they just they're just. Scared to to lock these players along those more years up I saw another thing like analytics wise words like the launch angle or the you know people cared about like analytics and launching and solvents like why am I going to pay this big free agent all this money when I have a prospect who has the same launch angle who can be your next year half a year just like that no I think the analysts that make perfect sense I'm like analytics and analytics can I think play a big factor into signing and that's the thing if you are a Bryce Harper many Machado you know they're 2625 something like that would you rather sign an 8 year 280000000 dollar contract where you know that after that because of these G.M.'s and because analytics and everything already 5 year 35 a year you would sign a 35000000 a year contract and 8 years you would get out at the end the year prime you know your prime a basically be over and you would sign maybe a 2 year 40000000 dollars deal maybe. Or 2 year if they are nice to your $50000000.00 deal if they really think that you can still be an amazing my urologist to the 10 year deal. But would you rather do that or would you rather sign a 3 year deal for 35000000 and then maybe sign one more big money that sounds great although I don't think teams would buy bad but it's a great like pitch by I don't think so I think you know you don't want a lot of security they would want him to be how help log term so if you're going to 35 a so firmly being there 3 Yeah 35000000 it's difficult 35000004 years you know you open your ears like a playful player wants 3 years but a team they want to hate that player will wait it out for that team though given 3 years. That's true I just I don't think Harper Machado are coming into this market for a 3 year deal no they're not but I'm saying. They want stability while long term security but it's not always about id things can happen any time you can fall off at any time that's really risky to for a 3 year deal you know they've been on the phone for example with Harper's injury history for example with him and his playing golf and so much on also his injury history you know I don't know I feel like you should take the 10 year deal you take a long term deal so you only way I would do that is if like we talked earlier with the opt out clause because if I'm on a terrible team why I don't want to say there's because I'm getting $35000000.00 a year for. 8 years I mean that's the thing that we know about sports is that most of time the terrible teams are the ones at all the money yeah so there will definitely be interesting hopefully this hot stove picks up a little bit so we will have something to talk about when it comes to Major League Baseball because I think I like your conversations about baseball I think that. There's definitely a lot to talk about but we're going to take a quick break but when we come back Madison is going to talk about this beautiful song of the day great with his start out 2018 and she'll also give her fantasy rundown buckle up it is going to be a crazy ending statin you listen to Upon further review here on Blaze radio your local student station.
