Does anyone know where Billy is? Because he, or Mark? Mark, yes. Okay, we think he's got a bathroom emergency. All right, we will ask.
I saw him with some medicine this morning. He came with a CVS bag. He had some medicine in there. I couldn't exactly read what the medicine was. Maybe it's something to stop or something to go. We don't know.
HIPAA. Okay, I'm sorry. Yes, we shouldn't be doing that. Illy Gill, Billy Ill. I don't know any of these things to be true either. They might all be reckless speculation. I just don't know where he is.
I'm telling you what I saw, Jack.
It's a fact.
It's very rude to speculate on another man's tummy.
Is it rude to speculate on another man's tummy?
Yeah.
Okay, put it on the poll at Levitard Show. Is it rude to speculate on another man's tummy? I have not seen what any of the reaction has been to this, so I am just genuinely curious. As one of the great evergreen sports topics in the history of sports, a Hall of Fame topic of should Pete Rose be in the Hall of Fame, for the President of the United States to now—
Should Pete Rose be pardoned posthumously?
To now pardon Pete Rose months after his death is not just posthumous, it's posthumorous, okay? The idea that Rob Manfred is now saying, okay, I'll take it under advisement whether to bring him into the Hall of Fame. The man was literally dying to get into the Hall of Fame for 50 years. Dying, and as soon as he dies, now you consider pardoning him from what? He already served the sentence. What are we pardoning? We are We are forgiving Pete Rose's name after he's died doing exactly what good for whom?
Did the president always have the ability to pardon Pete Rose? They just never thought of it?
I don't think he did. I think he overstepped his bounds here. Any president ever could have been like, you know what? I pardoned Pete Rose. Was he just pardoning him for the crime, the tax evasion crime, like posthumously? He wasn't pardoning him and saying, I get to decide whether Pete Rose is in the Hall of Fame, correct?
I didn't know that this is how pardons worked, that you can just pardon people for making whoopsies that stain their reputation in their own sport. Greg, do you have any thoughts here?
Well, baseball has come out and said the president has no sway over whether or not somebody is eligible to be on the Hall of Fame ballot.
Who would have had it as baseball being the one entity to stand up against one of these executive orders? Like, no, no, no, now we're going too far. You're testing your power, pal. You can't. We're Major League Baseball. God damn it.
You can't put Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame. Do you know how long we've been stubborn about this one dumb thing? But I'm with Trump on this one, too. Paper straws. This. It's a museum. It's not a moral factory. I want to ride behind Trump on this and then get violently out of the way when we do what we did Friday to embarrass the Ukraine. I don't know where...
americans are on shame but friday no it's humorous to me that we're now feigning outrage over the idea that trump has an alliance with putin not a surprise been going on for years why are we acting like we're so surprised that he's against ukraine in this whole matter everything indicated that he was
In terms of how horrified you are or embarrassed on behalf of the country, where does Friday rank?
I think it's terrible. You know, for the past four years, we've been allies of Ukraine and giving them weapons and helping them fight Russia. And now we're turning heel like John Cena.
