Agenda Free Friday on Red Sox, Bruins // Felger's Moon Madness - 4-3 (Hour 1)

So the winning run is at second base with two out three and two to Luke Wilson little roller up along first behind the bag. It gets through. But there comes night and the next one. Everybody welcome into the program Felgren Maserati Company on Friday April the third Fridays mean one thing and one thing only. It's agenda free. Agenda free means we have no agenda set by your wonderful phone calls and that's what we do all day long. Call us on whatever you want whenever you want. 617-779-0985 Kevin Majori is manning the plane back there. I'm sure he has released the hounds. So fill them up. We'll go to you opening segment if you're ready. In the meantime we'll give you a few words here from us before we go to you. First word is from our sponsor. Agenda free fighters are brought to you by Ketch's Law, New England's injury attorney since 1986 with over one billion one and 50 attorneys that live in the same community as you do. Schedule free consultation at Ketch's Law dot com Masa Murray alongside from a town fair tire studios. Hi guys. Hello Michael. Why do we play the ball going through Bill Buckner's legs there Murray? Well because a year ago to almost the day it was April 4th 2025 Red Sox opening day 2025. I don't know if you remember this. I asked two questions and those questions were with this one. Can we stop celebrating failure and to how many years until the loser 1986 team is standing on the infield grass at Fenway waving to the crowd and the answers of course to those questions are no and one year almost to the day. Again I asked these questions last year because before the first pitch last year the Red Sox decided to honor the 1975 Red Sox losers this year. They're doing it with the 1986 Red Sox. Maybe the most famous losers of all the losers in this city's once sad sports history and for all the winning that's gone on here in the last 24 years for whatever the hell reason. No one in the world celebrates losers quite like Boston. It really does bother me. It's almost like it's the city of almost champions. There's been a lot of winning here. It's been great two decades plus but these idiots over at the Red Sox want to honor the 86 Red Sox today. If you want to honor someone from 86 bring out the Celtics. I know Larry Bird ain't going to show up but you can get age. Parrish was just here promoting his book. Not the 86 Red Sox the biggest losers of all of them. How many parents my poor mother scarred crying on the couch from that play and then losing a game seven and this may it actually might just be a Red Sox thing more than anything else because I don't ever correct me if I'm wrong. I don't believe the Patriots ever had special anniversary celebrations for the 85 Pats the 86 Pats. 97. And at least they had the smarts for the 17 to take down that stupid testament to failure the 16 and old banner. Can we stop with this? Can we stop celebrating failure? There's been so much winning here over our lives over the last two decades plus and there's still rolling out these losers. This one is 75. I know you're you have your great but that team particular Mike this one bothers me because this one I'm 75 isn't 67 is the one 67. Completely melts my brain. Yeah. You know, you got the record the impossible dream you lost this one. It scarred my childhood. It drove my parents both to an early grave. So this one really does hurt me. You're honoring the 86 Red Sox before the first pitch today losers. My opening take is on the Bruins 6177790985. We'll do some Bruins talk early in the program. Certainly this hour as well as they lose last night in Florida a game that oddly a lot of you had just sort of chalked up into the wind column. I did. And it is weird what's taken hold a little bit among Bruins fans. I think, Maz, this strange sort of overconfidence like you hear it all the time, right? I got it. It's sort of like in the playoffs. Who are you afraid of? Who are you afraid of? Like, give me Buffalo Montreal. They don't scare me like these teams that are proven correct to be better than you. Yep. Over the balance of the entire season. If not multiple seasons. That's right. They're better on the roster. They're better on the ice. They've beaten you on the ice more than you've beaten them. Yes. Suddenly these series are like in the bag. Just like a game last night is in the bag. And so hopefully last night's a little bit of a reminder. It was. You still kind of stink. Okay. So and I just the operative word there is kind of. You don't stink, stink, but you're closer to stinking than being elite. And. You can lose to anyone on any night and I hopefully they don't have that overconfidence and I, you know, I don't know if they do Maas. I think it's maybe human nature. They've had a bunch of big games here that they've gotten up for. And so they just lay off the throttle because it's human nature. They think they kind of in the back of their minds have it in the bag because there's a bunch of guys on Florida skating around from the A. H. L. And so they just they come out slow like like I can kind of get it with the team. The fans though, like just keep them. Just know what this team is. They've had a really good season. Hopefully they give us some playoff hockey. It could get interesting in April. I hope it does. I'm rooting for it. But just remember what they are. Oh yeah, not over yet. I was walking by the producers on Shane and I said, Kevin, you worried they might blow this and he said. And I said, yes. I'll say this after last night because I've been to I've been riding high on the bees lately. But last night was like, oh, oh, no, nothing's really a given with them. And that's what it is. Florida decided to play hard and got good goal tending. And I still see Bennett skating around out there and Kachuk skating around out there and Seth Jones skating around out there. That's all they need. They and so just let that I guess let that be a little bit of a lesson. So what was the Bruins talk today? 617779095. Mass. Okay, I have two pieces of bad news. Part one. I went over to fend. Part one. This is not all of part one. I did something. I haven't done a long time. I went over to Fenway Park. Wow. And I stuck my head in the manager's pregame press briefing. How do you like that? Because there's a question I get all the time from people on the baseball hour about the Red Sox pension for strikeouts in your mass. How come they don't choke up? How come they don't hit it the other way? They don't know how to coach it. They don't know how to teach it. I hear it a lot. So I asked the question point blank. How do you fix strikeouts? This is the answer I got. I'm actually frozen right now. We'll get it. Of course you are. Holy crap. The lead up could not have been better. Alex Corra answered it. And I'll just tell you that he answered the question in about a two minute answer. What went on and on and on that we boiled down to a little segment of the question. I think it encapsulates it pretty well. Here it is. I think. We presume. Never mind. Okay. So we'll get to that later. Part two. If a team is going to first of all, I don't think it's fixable is my point. Okay. I don't think it's fixable. And you know what? I don't think they think it's fixable. I don't think it's physical at this level. Okay. Exactly. Yeah. You want to do it when a kid's eight years old maybe. Or when they get to the minor league instructional ball a ball. But by the time you sort of are what you are when you get to the big leagues, Trevor stories, but in the big leagues for a long time, he's always struck out. He always will. That's my point. Secondly, as it relates to strikeouts, can you win if you strike out? Yes. Yes, you can. But there is a caveat to that. Usually teams that strike out a lot or often hit the ball out of the ballpark. Home runs and strikeouts kind of go hand in hand. They're power. It's a power swing, which means if you hit it, it's going to travel. If you don't, you're going to strike out. Home runs and strikeouts are related to one another. The problem with this Red Sox team is I don't know if they're going to hit home runs. So you might have the worst of the worst. You might have a team that strikes out a crap ton and doesn't hit home runs, and those kinds of teams suck. Do we have this out? You are who you are as a hitter. I don't think we are this team. We will put the ball in play, but also you're not going to go from 28% strikeout rate to 18% impossible. If you got that guy, let me know. If you got that hitting coach, let me know. I'll give him my salary and I retire. It's not going to happen. Interesting. I mean, you know, so I had a feeling he felt that way. You know, I spec you know why he feels that way because he didn't put the roster together. I mean, it's easy for him to feel that way. Your team strikes out a lot. Well. Yeah, the way this game is, you are what you are, and this is what the GM gave me. Pretty much, but I also tend to agree with it. I mean, no, no, no, no, but I agree that there's an organizational philosophy either your from the DNA of your organization from the lowest levels to how you draft to how you develop through the major leagues. If that if your if your DNA is to draw contact, then yeah, then I you know, that's what you get at the major league level. If it's not, this is what you get the major league level. And at this stage, it's too late. At this at this stage, they're not going to be able to fix it. And if you listen to the middle that answer, he catches himself. He's about to say Kevin, play it again. If you would listen right in the middle when he starts to talk about making contact, you are who you are as a hitter, you know, and I don't think we are this team. We will put the ball in play, but also you're not going to go from 28% strikeout rate to 18% case stop. I don't think we are this team. In other words, well, we're going to strike out a lot. I don't think we're going to strike out this much, but we're going to strike out a lot. And if you think we're going to go down to 18%, that's not going to happen. Right now, there were 30% strikeout rate or whatever the number is. It might be over 30. He wanted to say we're going to hit, we're going to make better contact, and he couldn't bring himself to say it. And you know why? Because he knows. So your thoughts, how much of that is on Alex Cora? I mean, then on the other hand, listen, I do feel it's an organ, it's on the organization more than the major league manager. However, there is a line there where the manager can say to the team, get your heads out of your ass. You don't need to swing at that. I know you're not going to go down to a low strikeout guy, but you don't need to swing at that. Well, and that's where they are right now. Yeah, that I agree. Calls opening segment if you're ready, and some of you are. My Milwaukee homeboy, he's from Boston, it's Tommy in Milwaukee. Go ahead, Tommy. How's it going guys? Wanted to thank you for ruining another good thing. This ABS system, after you guys shed light on it, the graphic comes up. Complete baloney. These pictures are so close, and I think the way they calculate it is so phony, but I have a genuine question about it. What happens if one of these 20-year-old kids hit the growth spurt this summer, like Roman Anthony or Jackson Cheerio? How are they going to recalculate this? Like it makes, I don't know. It's a good point, but Tommy, you'll see it, and I think, you know, maybe the umps are getting better, or the more I've watched this, the more pitches are getting challenged right on the black, and the ball is either in or out by a tenth of an inch, which is inside of the computer's margin of error, which means the computer is guessing too. They don't get it, when it's a point one-six-seven, or less, one-sixth of an inch is the Hawkeye technology's margin of error. So anything inside of that is a guess just like the human. Which is all the more reason to ask why are we doing this? David and Boca Raton, yes, David, are you there? Yep, what up, guys? I was at the Celtics in the Bruins down here the last two nights. First off on the Celtics, did you guys notice the Celtics stopped closing out and contesting the three pointers from the heat? And then also with the offense starting to be just five wide around the edge, and the ball never ever touching the paint. And then on the Bruins real quick, can somebody please tell me what Lucas Riekel does besides do cardio for however long he's on the ice? He's got a little bit of speed. He was alright in the game prior. And burst, yeah, I don't totally hate him. But he's another fringy, you know, sort of floater roster piece that if you had told me, Lucas Riekel's getting meaningful minutes down the stretch of an HLC's, I say you're not really a playoff team, not a serious team. So like, that's kind of a, that's another one where you say, is is is is is is is is is is is I don't know what they were and I hope they all exceed what you would expect them to be but they are what they are on the Celts I do feel Celts fans are really excited about the game in Miami the other night Yeah it was useless So I don't want to do that I don't want to keep doing that so I've just sort of abstained but I think they had 53 points in the first quarter and they had I don't know what they were from the three but it was something ungodly for the whole game you mean they hit 12 three-pointers in the first quarter 11 for 15 Which is what percent? Oh god 12 out of 15 is 80% so 77 77% beyond the line they scored 53 points at that point you know what that NBA game becomes to me? Useless There's nothing there! Exactly You're playing out the string so they didn't close out because it was over after one quarter Miami did kind of climb back and make it a nine-point game so maybe there were like a handful of possessions early in the fourth quarter that they had to sort of dig out which they did and so it's like there's no leverage in a game like that so I don't pay attention to NBA blowouts I just don't I can't do them so if you want to glean something from that you may I don't I don't think that's going to inform you at all if you get into a playoff series with the Detroit Pistons and they're up into you and they're digging in and it's a rock fight game and you got to dig out and out tough a team that's in your face all game long and you're not just shooting 77% from beyond the line in the first quarter and scoring 53 points What does that show you? Zippo and the other thing is any box score that has a final score of 147 to 129 you can kiss my ass with that Are they going to play playoff games like that? No way, not in a million years that was a pick up game the other night in Miami is what it was. I don't want to be that guy but then again the other half of you know we do just have to tell it like it is the game was kind of pointless to me and if anything is going to kind of send you into some bad habits you want to play out there and play those kind of games you're ultimately going to lose how many three point attempts did they have in that game? 44 but they had more twos then they took 52 twos okay maybe that's a game if you really think you're going to win like that then you're not but again they wound up playing more inside the line so I don't know if that game totally qualifies me Miami took 47 threes they made 24 and I'll tell you why I think that's a little different they had to get back in the game so that's kind of different but either way you're not playing playoff games like that there was no resistance in that game back to your phones right after these words so as an interesting stat five losses since the Olympics is that what he said? and all five have come against nine playoff teams in regulation that's right so I don't think that's all a terrible stat I mean it just shows they have let downs like they think they they think they're better than other teams and they think they're better than other teams and they think they're better than other teams and they think they're better than they think they're better than other teams that's kind of odd because I just like to reiterate and not to go too far with it they kind of stink but it tells you sort of that they're not good enough if they don't show up you know what I mean? even if they're playing a bad team they can't just show up and win because in that sport the margin for error is so small they gotta show up so after a slow start they dug in but they just don't have enough and they put them on them in the third period they just don't have enough swimming I could use to save on one of those two maybe the first one I mentioned from distance I don't know if that was technically from distance but it was a little farther out than you're used to seeing scoring this C-Guy scoring this day and age but then he was really good he was really good for the balance of the game both go some serious goaltending in that game last night you know who's becoming a problem go ahead Kevin give me that other highlight that we cut please if you don't mind it's gonna grow at some point for him the Sam is going to first it is? are we sure about that? 15 games no goals it's been almost a month March 5th 15? yep 15 I believe it is now that's what Jimmy McPride had I think I'll double check it so I mean listen if you listen to this show I must have said it because I'm gonna live to it I'm gonna live up to it but Geeky had a big year last year I said if he scored the same amount of goals whatever that was I'll eat my hat I got there just before the Olympics I feel guilty about eating like some sort of taco hat or chocolate hat I want to eat a real hat to sort of live up to the bet but the more that this goes on I'm gonna eat a taco hat because you know what I mean? I mean that's what people expect anyway Mike you can't eat a real hat it's not healthy I'm a rules guy this is a serious conversation it is I'm a man of my word about a taco hat we're trying to find the most edible hat that I could boil it or something I don't know we've talked about this but people have suggested like taco hats and you know this sort of thing I'll eat the taco I am ashamed to admit I have lost a little chunk of money here the last couple of weeks saying he's due he's got to score one like an idiot like a complete utter moron that last one he's got a pot he's got a pot that I'm sorry you know Bobrovsky tipped it so I guess Bobrovsky made the save but it really it was in so tight I don't even Bobrovsky really moved his glove hand I think it just hit it you got to score that one that one's got to go up underneath the bar and if you're an elite goal scorer you got an elite shot that goes top shelf and nothing Bobrovsky can do and that's in the net well and that's kind of his game he's a shooter like you know you got to bury one of those that one where he was all alone in front like holy crap that was the last one holy crap so he surpassed his total from last year and then it's just basically stopped a cold stopped cold 15 straight games 15 games no goals 7 assists 7 points plus 3 he's out there he's getting power play time he's getting ice time and he's getting chances the dude can't score he's averaging over 17 minutes on the ice back to your calls here's Burton Berlin go ahead Bert yeah guys they don't really call about baseball but since it's opening day look this ABS thing is going to drive everyone crazy for the rest of the season unless they adjust it but the reality is Mike it's more than 0.167 inches of error the system's got a lot more error than that we used to think that they do they do that box time based on the batter at the plate yeah no no no right they saw a stance but no they're basing it on a player profile that Bart that's right we've been over this many many time we've been over this many many times on the show so right it's a it's a they measure them in the pre season so that's yeah I know I'm sorry but here's the deal if this is going to work it has to include a buffer zone for this frickin box yes there's so many things yeah right it's I mean if if you just want to change the rules of the game after 150 years okay I mean okay like maybe it needs it so I am part of me maz for a guy who's trying to cheat his stance to draw walks or you know I want that guy you know Pete Rose was just the most famous example of my lifetime that he just kind of a cheat he crouching down like that so he makes his strike something like a mail slot no no I want that guy to be held you know fine but don't expect the umpire this is my beef the umpire got it wrong well not really he's been he's been instructed his entire life to call it the letters and the knees and now that's no longer a strike for some guys so you know don't expect the guy to overnight just guess where 53 and a half percent of his body height is and so like that's sort of my beef never mind there's a margin of error of a 6th of an inch so everything that you see on the line the computer's guessing every bit as much as you are or the umpire is and how many of the misses really are missing by much more than that you know what I mean like I've seen point two point three whatever every once in a while you get a really bad one but the umpires themselves I looked this up the other day I forgot to tell you 93% on balls and strikes okay as a group 93% yeah right so they're losing the challenges are at like they're getting 57% of the challenges right but that's just the challenges right so the point is you know that if you extrapolate that 93 out of 100 they were getting right okay so on each side there's like 10 pitches a game that are iffy 10 that's it and most of these are right on the line so it just goes back to I don't need this thing Nick and Fall River what do you got Nick Hello Nick okay put John hold Matt in your bed for hi Matt guys really quick on Morgan geeky um you would say that this is probably the hardest point in the Bruins schedule this year right there as far as they have the most pressure okay last year when do you think that they had the most pressure on them was at the beginning early early okay well Morgan geeky had a 20 game goal is throughout early I don't know I don't know if you guys remember that crap so it seems to me that Morgan geeky it seems to just disappear when things got the hardest and most pressure but that's just my take I'm with you Matt I mean I hear what you're saying when the season was in the balance early last year all sorts of problems the coach and the locker room one grade and they were playing themselves out of the playoffs and where was he then the coach gets fired the seasons lost they sell to deadline and he goes on a binge this year no one's really expecting much no one's really paying attention kind of a foray roster comes out hot now they're in the playoffs they need him and where is he dried up so is he closer to the how many goals did he score how many goals is he scored 30 he's got 34 I think this is he closer to 34 or the zero that he scored in the last 15 what's he closer to don't answer here's Murray's update we're back with more don't go anywhere I walk back to the program agenda for Friday that peak your interest at all last night on the Artemis you go home and watch or read anything I didn't read that but I am interested yeah I'm going to check it out a little more but not enough to do anything about it last last night was a bad night for me to do anything no I watched the Bruins went to bed you didn't take a peek at anything Murray I watched some of the Super Mario movie when the Bruins were over a fire with a bed hahahaha trans the trans lunar injection was a success big moment that was a big deal that one they got through well I mean I don't know if I put it like that it was a success nothing blew up nothing went out of the kilter everyone's good it operated the way it was supposed to operate and they're on their way to the moon and back it just continues to blow me away that they fired the engines for 5 minutes and 50 seconds and that's it that sends them there and back and all they have left to do is a little course corrects little side thrusters but for the most part they're going to burn that one engine rev gets them through gets them there and back I know that was like in the movies and everything and we're going to use the moon as a slingshot and orbital mechanics and orbital science and all of this I know it exists and they know it but it blows me away they're just basically they turn the car on for under 6 minutes and they're going to coast pretty much the rest of the way crazy I do know as you said it last night I reinforced it but I do know we always talk about reentry Monday it's a space term initially reentering the orbit stratosphere and so they have to calculate but there's also outward departure the opposite of the reentry going out and coming in that's no guarantee for these guys they can't come back too hot because it's too quick and one of the things that they spent a lot of time working on was the heat shield it's not it was one of the question marks about the spacecraft was the heat shield and so if you hit the atmosphere at the wrong angle it would come in too quick so they got to calculate that whole thing it just blows me away, it's mind blowing you're not interested in the far side of the moon, Murray? no, not really I like the far side that whole comic what if it holds the answers to how we got here this is what I'm interested in, I think it's really cool to think about colonizing the moon to use as a stepping stone to Mars and all of that like that interests me what really interests me is the answers that it might have the far side of the moon is totally different than the near side of the moon you said the topography is different you were saying that yesterday it's a pot mark because it's gotten pelted and this is one part of that it makes my head hurt when I think about it but the far side of the moon is always on the far side we never see the far side from here, it's only one side here yet the moon does rotate but it rotates in sync with the Earth but some of the Earth sees some of the other part of the moon, I don't get it when I start to try and visualize how that is my head starts to hurt I can't figure that out if you get two balls turning in the same direction at the same time they never see anything but what they always see it's nice of the moon to think of us though that we only get to see the nice part no but the other side of the Earth then why Huckum Australia doesn't see the far side oh I see what you mean so then that means the Earth so I don't want to do this on the Earth because you try and do it and your head starts to hurt I'm going to go right 9085thesportsup.com wouldn't Australia see the far side? yeah no no you're right about that but that's not it I'm just trying to figure out how that is if the moon didn't rotate alright I got it it doesn't rotate but it rotates so how's that but anyway so if it rotates why was only one side pelted to the bejesus but the far side has never seen from Earth reading from the telegraph it has borne the brunt of billions of years of bombardment and is a pock marked golf ball of deep shadowed overlapping craters so this is another thing like this I believe the apocalyptic event that's going to get us as humans is a space rock I've told you this forever this is more proof the far side of the moon has gotten the the bejesus beat out of it because it's just over the billions of years it's getting all those space rocks one of them is going to get us eventually it's just going to happen and no aphelic is not going to be able to drive up into space and blow it out of the air ok so quick question if the far side of the moon gets pelted why do we want to live there we don't we want to be there because they can better as I've been reading when you're on the far side of the moon you won't hear the earth and your telescopes and your devices will work much better so if you want to see into deep space it's much better from the far side of the moon because you're not the earth you're not hearing the earth so it's just like one of those scenic viewpoints on the highway I guess military would call that an FOB, a forward operating base ok maybe that's a interstellar version of that Murray that doesn't interest you no the the astronauts have been told to pay particular attention to two Keener lunar futures on the far side the Orientale I know I'm mispronouncing that and the South Pole Atkin Basin the latter is the largest impact crater and possibly the oldest known to exist in the entire solar system you don't find that interesting so something big hit the moon a long time ago both these basins date back about 4 billion years to a period known as the late heavy bombardment the LHB I wonder what the early one was like when a large number of asteroids were peppering both the moon and the earth this period coincides with when life was first getting started on the planet like that's what I'm interested in how we got here isn't that the question we don't know some people think they know, some people believe in things religion whatever but like that's where I think the answer is ok so you think it might be buried in one of these craters it's just what sparked life here on this planet ok but I'm just not sure that we're going to get it from this no we're not but we're starting like this is like obviously they're not going to figure it all out by this pass by I'm not saying that but this is what the end game is for me I don't ask those questions I don't care I want the answers to who can fix the potholes who can fix my golf swing I don't want the answers coming down those are the gym questions I mean didn't we start in the primordial primordial lose what was the spark what was the lightning bolt what was the trigger monkey and man well that's later but you just said it lightning bolt what was the lightning bolt to me it was probably a space rock was it a just when where did that space rock come from that stuff's cool to me and you know this thing I also like have this stuff where I keep hearing like it's the first time I'm going to lay eyes on this the first time I'm going to lay eyes on this even though some of the Apollo missions in the late 60s and early 70s orbited the moon so they went on the far side ah well apparently they orbited really close to the moon so they didn't have a wide angle view which we're going to have it's really on Sunday into Monday they're going to be on the far side so we're going to have a wide angle view also it's going to be a different time of day or night where you can see it where the Apollo was in the dark I think like literally in the dark or parts of the planet the moon just weren't visible to them and this time it is so we're going to be seeing things including these craters that no human has ever laid eyes on that doesn't that does nothing for you no I'm a little interested in that we get to see the moon zits I like looking at the hot moon that we always get to see this is going on like you were watching Super Mario and you were probably watching I might have been asleep I guess I'm the only one I'm sorry I might have been asleep I won't waste any more of your time long commercial re-segment comes your way next we go we fight we look at the go we fight oh my god he sucks in the place that's great no wonderful the sports hub I'll start with you DJ and I'll ask a very simple question are the Bruins good or are they just playing good there's a difference are they good they are good they are playing well they are lucky they've taken turns getting luck in different places well that feels like four different answers I'll let's try it again are they a good hockey team not really so good good answer you're right you're right go ahead define that no like I said there's a lot of qualifiers there are they getting luck are they getting good goal tending are they getting all these things like yes there are a lot of variables there but ultimately they're a good team where we've been careful when we talk about them today like we refuse or I'll speak for myself I refuse to put expectations on this team I think this is such a huge house money year that we're starting to see the tide turn really over the last week where they're getting a lot of national attention and people being like damn these guys are going to be trouble I don't know if they're going to be trouble I think they're good though and I think that they're a playoff team and this has been a great season I'm going to stop short of putting big big expectations on them though DJ B B Blackburn what chaos boys before we started yelling I started yelling at him the other night back to your phones as promised here's Nick and Paul River go ahead Nick hey guys I'm sorry about before my phone's been acting don't but uh so good may I ask you one quick thing about the moon stuff yeah sure all right what I want to know real quick is that do you think the reason why we don't we don't see the far side could be because the moon might spin different like it sounds stupid but it might spin like a bullet it's good they call it something it's a title something and I've been reading a lot about this it's a phenomenon known as title locking every time I try and think about it on my head hurts I I I know I have no idea Nick it spins like a bullet oh so I get it so it spins perpendicular us almost if you know what I mean yeah yeah yeah yeah we're spinning this way but the moon is spinning that away right yeah that makes sense yeah yeah maybe maybe I don't know what's that title locking I don't know Nick but not bad I got I got that go ahead not not gonna like came up with that a little while ago smoking so just take it with a grain of salt but but I want to ask you so good it does kind of feel like because I gave you crap a couple weeks go for it does feel like geeky gut to 34 was keeping track of you and was like all right I'm good I don't got a score to rest of you we're good to remain to the year because it like he's getting open he had like three opportunities yesterday him and uh Zaka and some of it was Bob Rossi looking good but some of it was them just missing man if you're gonna be an elite goal score like you said you got a score when he gives you a crease because Bob's a good goalie so that last one he's got a pot Pastryneck had one too that he shot right into his pad he does that postdoc does a lot you got a shoot I mean what's his name mint and had one earlier where he flipped it up and just it was easy Pasha shot it right at the pack Jack in Texas on an agenda free Friday has a Celtics thought go ahead Jack yeah I'm just wondering why I don't hear anything about Brad Stevens and the tremendous job he's doing this year after we got rid of holiday and poor zingas and Horford and he's got a bunch of no names and they're still in contention I say it all the time I think he's tremendous I mean you hear about Missoula but I never hear anything about Brad Stevens I'd go Stevens over Missoula in fact I think the little tweaks that they make on the floor are Brad Stevens not Joe Missoula and that's based on nothing other than I think Joe Missoula's stubborn well again there and so he's not gonna do it on his own Joe Missoula's not the guy to say on his own oh we did that wrong some's gonna have to tell him to do it and that's gonna be his boss so I think Stevens is the brains of the brains of the DNA of the entire operation definitely Gasper's brought this up that hideous loss they had to the Utah Jazz at the beginning of November when they took 50 plus 3s 51 and then the then the approach changed where do you think that came from exactly Joe Missoula's gonna do that please I'm gonna say boy I had that wrong no I told you I think Stevens to me is as good an understanding as any executive I've ever seen Melissa's in the car on the moon yes Melissa I almost didn't want to call but because Nick kind of explained it but it's like I had to teach the middle schoolers I would have one student stand in the middle so Felder stand in the middle of a room yeah mad stand on the other side and stare at you he's the face of the moon yep as he sort of moves in a circle around the moon his orbit and his rotation are happening at the same time I don't get no that's that but that's different than what Nick just said if he gets to half of the side of the room he has spun on his axis because he's facing a different way but he orbited at the same time that's why he's always facing you that's why the rotation happens Melissa but it doesn't seem like it happens that makes my head hurt I can't figure that out but it's you're rotating and orbiting at the same time it happens at the exact same time okay she misses the obvious point once I turn my back to you I would stay that way come bring the kids and show us because I don't understand it unless you show me the thing that Nick said I get yeah right that the one one is spinning in a perpendicular fashion to you where you're spinning right so you're just seeing that end of it same part over and over again the thing Melissa did is what gives me the headache I can't figure that out at all Alan and Auburn give it a shot I will try to do it without the headache the moon takes 24 hours to spin once on its axis and it also takes 24 hours to orbit the earth once right those two things combined is why the same side is always facing us and it's synced up do you get it yeah well look again it it orbits the earth in 24 hours he said right yeah okay this is one of these things that I'm just I'm just gonna have to accept I mean I do accept we only see one side of the moon all of us I say all of us the entire planet we're round though and the moons round and they're both spinning so how well if you know that can happen I mean it's just the timing's gotta be right I if you try and demonstrate it I can't because the moon is moving I am more interested in I mean this side this is one of these things I'm just gonna have to accept that I can't I'm not gonna figure out you're trying to do it with stationary what I'm interested in is that and I guess I don't get it this is also what I don't get that that far side has been pelted but if it's spinning why wouldn't all sides of it have been pelted to the same degree that I don't get that either that one is a good question the far side has been subject to the bombardment zone why in the front side subjected to the if it's spinning the front side is different in nature it's a good glassy it's gonna have something to do with some sort of gravitational issues so but like that piece to it I'm just gonna my brain's not big enough I'm not smart enough to figure that out no argument here but the fact that the far side has answers Murray it has answers to why we're here I don't know why that would interest you at least just a little but to each his own here's Murray's 90 second update no commercials and we're right back
