What led to Jonathan Zaslow's very bad day?
Zaz, how are you holding up? I feel like we lost you today. Not good, man. You are good or you're not good? No, not good. Not good. I'm shook. Is it the dream? Is it the dream combined? Dreams aren't real, Dan.
How does Zaslow describe his feelings after the incident?
I'm okay about the dream. I know the difference between the dream world and the real world. Is it the slurring? Was it this clip when you didn't know Mike was talking in your headphones? Yeah, that's my gimmick. Wait, what? That right there is the one that'll keep me up tonight. Yeah. It's a shocking lack of awareness that I had there. Yo, that's my gimmick.
What was the significance of the dream mentioned?
Wait, what? Like, I'm talking to myself like a crazy person. If someone's listening, someone's listening to that clip. Yeah, they don't hear Mike. Yo, that's my gimmick. Wait, what? Like, what the hell is he talking about? He's a crazy person. And everybody knows two things about me. I'm not a crazy person, and I'm not a cuck. But you listen to that clip right there. Yo, that's my gimmick. Wait, what? And it's like, that's a crazy person. and a cook. I just want to be clear though.
How did Zaslow react to the misunderstanding with Mike?
So the dream in which you talked off set to Kendrick Perkins, uh, and interrupted him while not on first take, but wanting to be on first take doesn't feel to you as bad as the reality of Mike was talking to you and only you. And what you were supposed to say there is, do you know about those black people on the lawn? And you just said this instead. You'll ask my gimmick. Wait, what? Yeah, that was a funny response I had. But I was the only one who heard the prior words. It was a good show that you and Mike were doing for only you and Mike. Very good joke. Mike, you thought that joke was funny, right? How did you not know, though, that Mike was not talking to just you as opposed to all of us? Why would he be saying that to all of us while hiding his mouth and trying to lean down so as not to be seen saying it?
I thought he was taking my gimmick. Wait, what? Let's go ahead and get to the polls and to the stat of the day, please. Stat of the day, man. My brother Tim Anderson had 98 home runs, 332 RBI, a .283 average, and an OPS under .750 in 3,482 career at-bats before being rocked. After Jose Ramirez... He hit just over .200 with an OPS under .500.
What insights does Zaslow share about awareness in broadcasting?
He never hit another homer and had just 18 RBI and 449 further at bats. He never hit another, not one more home run after that? Not a damn nutter. What are we supposed to think about that? Confidence is key, man. In everything you're doing. Take it from Jalen Suggs. Welcome home, brother. Confidence is key. He's going to be Derek White now. While I love that when you talk about baseball, you say .200, you can just say in baseball .200. It felt weird. About the third point, I was like, they don't say this to me. Yeah, but you've got to stay consistent. Once you commit, you're in. Tim Anderson was a Marlin for a while, and nobody remembers it because of everything it is that you're saying there. You know what we didn't get to in any way today, and we probably should have?
The details out of USC basketball, where the leading scorer in college basketball is just not on the team anymore. How the hell does that happen? Right. They have tournament hopes and everything. It's like, whatever will happen, please forgive that young brother. In his last game, he left the game with a, quote, injury. And then minutes later, he was seen walking out onto the court and just sitting in the front row. Not with the team. Sitting away from the team. And then he's... Released from the team. It took the entire show, but we finally acknowledged that this is March, and we're about to enter some of the most awesome times of our lives, provided we live to get there. Put it on the poll at Levitard Show.
Are we about to live the most awesome time of our lives if we get there at Levitard Show? Let's update some of the polls here. That is crazy, though. You're talking about college basketball's leading scorer and just, ah, never mind, not on the team anymore. And Eric Musselman's a players coach, so there must be something more going on. And they flatly told us they weren't going to war.
