What is the opening introduction and theme of the episode?
Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to our humble abode, the DraftKings Thunderdome. On this Big Coach Wednesday, August 5th, 2026, this sports program begins now. Football is the greatest, and NFL training camps are continuing to deliver highlights from all over the league, making every fan base say, wait a minute, is this the year we win a Super Bowl? We shall see. It's obviously not just football that's crushing it. You've got also baseball happening. And don't look now. The Dodgers are losing. And losing. And losing. Got swept by the Sox. Now they're about to get swept by the Cubs, potentially. Scooble gets his first start last night. They inevitably lose, even though he pitched well. Are the Dodgers actually a perfect indication of what...
Baseball should be going forward. You can't buy a championship. You can't just put all the best players that exist on the entire planet onto one team and expect a championship to come that way. You can't put $1.12 billion into deferred payments and win a championship. Well, they did last year, actually. Yeah. And then... The year before they did. But right now, they're losing.
Why are the Dodgers losing and how does that affect the baseball discussion?
Exactly.
Yeah, they are losing right now. The Mets didn't make the playoffs last year. They had the second highest payroll. Now, it was nowhere near what the Dodgers were doing. But if the Dodgers go on to win this year with the addition of this man, Cy Young, and MVP both being on the same team with Shohei Ohtani and he, it's certainly going to be a conversation about baseball stopping. But if the Dodgers continue to lose games like they're losing... Mm-hmm. I think everybody's going to be like, you know what, yeah, just let these people dump money into these things and let's continue to have a great. Maybe the Pittsburgh Pirates don't need to be spending money. There you go. Yeah, maybe that is why this is happening.
Nonetheless, Scooble gets his first start with the Dodgers. Huge storyline as the Cubs continue to be great, by the way. They are. The Cubs are playing very great baseball right now, and baseball is going to continue to be a story just because we obviously wonder if next year is going to happen or not. Who's going to win it this year? Could be anybody.
Mm-hmm.
Probably him. Probably their daughter. Pretty good favorites.
Probably their daughter.
Heavy favorites. But they're losing right now, so baseball survives next year. And that's what it's all about. The Talks of Tim was here at Boston Corner and at Ty Schmidt. One of the Hammer. Dad! Cowboys AP Tony's here. A nine-year NFL vet, Darius J. Butler. Yes, sir. D-Butts two days from now. Actually, tomorrow. Yeah. Hall of Fame game. Now it's a night game, and we're only at noon right now, so there's a lot of hours, obviously, until this thing. 30, 32 probably, right? 32 hours until we have an NFL helmet on a high school football field representing NFL teams and legends that are going to the Hall of Fame this weekend. Panthers versus the Cardinals. Kenny Pickett. First Carson Beck. Kenny Pickett won a Super Bowl.
Yes, he did. Last person to touch the ball for the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl win was Kenny Pickett. He had gloves on his hands and he took a knee and he kneeled it out and won a Super Bowl. Now he's starting quarterback for the Carolina Panthers in this preseason game because obviously Bryce Young's not going to get thrown out there for the Hall of Fame game. Not a lot of guys that we know in the NFL are going to be playing in this one, but we've got a lot of proving ground. We've got a lot of opportunity. And we have NFL football... happening for the first time in a long time. D-Butt, how should we be viewing tomorrow night? And congratulations to all the Hall of Famers that are going in, including kicker Adam Vinatieri.
Absolutely, and that's what I'll be most locked into are the legends that'll be enshrined forever. But look, it's a lot of guys, like you said, fighting for the jobs. Pretty much everyone you see playing in this football game, outside of probably Carson Beck and Kenny Pickett, those guys obviously be on the team.
