0.706 - 11.644 Todd Lebo

Hosting for the soccer matches? Well, do it right. McGregor's Butcher Shop has house-cut steaks, fresh deli sandwiches, and everything you need for a table worth gathering around. McGregor's Butcher Shop in Overland Park.

16.298 - 24.566

And who's doing it again? Jalen Brunson. Ananobi gets it into Brunson. Brunson pulls a quick three off the front rim.

0

28.59 - 45.107 Todd Lebo

No. Tip and gun for the lead with 1.2 seconds to go. OG Ananobi flying out of nowhere. Harper about to receive the ball. He's got it. Inbound over the top. Castle has it. Lost it. Take it away. The Knicks have done it. The biggest comeback in NBA Finals history.

47.281 - 53.068

And now, wondering what the Spurs were thinking jacking up all those threes, Surin Petro.

53.128 - 77.331 Surin Petro

Right you are, Kay. Right you are. Petro on the program on Sports Radio 810 WHB. Welcome to the World Cup, world. You know, we really are. We get feedback from people all over the globe that listen to us on the mighty 810 app. So whether you're here in Kansas City, somewhere in the U.S., or anywhere in the world, welcome. We bid you welcome to World Cup Soccer.

77.351 - 99.576 Surin Petro

I mean, they haven't actually kicked off yet. The pomp and circumstance continues. But we are about ready to get the first match going in the World Cup. So, first of all, welcome, Kansas City. I know the first match here doesn't happen until the 16th. The wonderful 2026 FIFA Fan Fest, which we are broadcasting from Tuesday. is rocking and rolling right now.

99.696 - 113.78 Surin Petro

If you want to find a place to go watch the game, the match that is going on right now, we've got South Africa against Mexico. They've got all kinds of big video boards, all kinds of festivities going on down at the Liberty Memorial.

115.563 - 115.903

Very cool.

116.144 - 118.227 Surin Petro

Can I give you a piece of advice? Because I Ubered home.

Chapter 2: How does the World Cup impact local events in Kansas City?

171.95 - 188.68 Surin Petro

Yeah, I've seen a bunch of people like come down here for an Uber and then they end up walking back up and their Uber got canceled. I was like, oh, that's not good. And so then I got in my Uber and I was driving back and I was chatting with the very nice lady who does not listen to 810.

0

190.702 - 195.972

It's okay. Not everyone does. Almost everyone does, but some don't.

0

196.293 - 220.608 Surin Petro

But I'm just, you know, I'm just going to say, you're welcome, Dana. And tough luck, Scott. Okay, that's all I'm going to say. Friends of ours. Yes. Okay. More of a Dana fan than a Scott fan. If you don't know, then don't try to figure it out. Just stay right here. But I know there are people that, you know, you have lives, you check other things. I kind of feel the same way as you do.

0

220.929 - 223.252 Surin Petro

Anyway, because I was like, oh, yeah, you like Scott?

0

223.333 - 226.588

Nah, I really like her more. I was like, oh, okay. I know her.

227.169 - 248.562 Surin Petro

I worked with him. But anyway, I digress on that little front. Good people all around. But anyway, very nice lady who was who was driving home. She said, well, the problem is that people hit their pickup where they're at. And so if they hit their pickup, like if you hit your pickup at Fan Fest, then that sends it out to them.

248.582 - 265.114 Surin Petro

And she said, we if we can't get to where it is, we can't start the meter running. for lack of a better term. The Uber, the way it works, if the car doesn't get to the pickup spot, it never starts charging. And so you get in the car. It's to protect you. Well, it's to protect you.

266.516 - 270.522

Well, I was up here, and now you owe me $14 because I sat here for 10 minutes.

270.622 - 286.808 Surin Petro

Yeah, right? And so you have to make sure that you put the right spot in because you can kind of move it with your finger. So make sure you move it to a spot, and you probably need to get away a little bit. I think when it's at max capacity, like 17th and Main is probably a good spot, but that's an active corner. Yeah.

Chapter 3: What challenges are the Royals facing this season?

1320.123 - 1350.12 Surin Petro

And Petro, pick a side. Do you want to defend this as one of the great trades in Chiefs histories? Yes, I do. I can make you an outstanding legal argument that this is one of the great trades in Chiefs history. As far as what they gave up and what they got... Kudos. Yes, kudos. So we'll talk some Chiefs football as well. 9133-810-810, the phone number.

0

1352.283 - 1383.014 Surin Petro

The state of Texas is going to consider criminal activity, criminal charges. When did Texas become the home of big government? I mean, if your business runs it the way you want to run it and we don't like it, we're going to charge you with a crime? I'm being charged with a crime? Is something going on here? I mean. It's funny. That's what this is. That's what they're talking about.

0

1383.815 - 1391.226 Surin Petro

If the Big 12 takes any sanctions against the Texas Tech program against Brendan Sorsby, it'll be treated as a crime.

0

1393.147 - 1408.653

Yeah. I mean... That's an interesting precedent. It wasn't murder. He didn't beat anyone. He didn't beat anyone. He didn't kill anybody. Which I'm going to use any time I get pulled over. 70 and a 30. I'm recovering from an addiction.

0

1408.853 - 1413.18 Surin Petro

It was... Oh, man. It was happy, playful...

1413.734 - 1439.775 Surin Petro

andy today but i was considering asking andy reed i just want to put this out there and then we'll take a break and we'll go to the phones i was considering asking andy reed today coach i know this happened in college but basically by most people's account a local texas judge just made sure the local team's quarterback could play do you worry that i don't know the quarterback of another team

1441.156 - 1464.413 Surin Petro

is gambling on his games, and you have to play against him because the local, I don't know, Buffalo, New York magistrate says, it's okay, Josh Allen was betting on games. Or even worse, Coach, how about this? This is the part that people don't want to turn around. How about your players are all tanking games, and you can't cut them?

1464.393 - 1487.211 Surin Petro

Now, it probably wouldn't happen because the legal... But you've set a precedent now, right? Like, I know that's not... No, no, no. What he did was he made it okay for the guy to play because it helps him. I know, but that's now a legal precedent that you cannot discipline somebody who says that they have an addiction. And so if you tank the game and you try to cut the guy...

Chapter 4: What are the Chiefs' recent draft decisions?

1489.081 - 1511.146 Surin Petro

Can he now sue the team because we've set the precedent that, no, no, he has an addiction. His mental health sucks, and so you can't cut him. So we're going to put an injunction out for every player because the precedent has been set no matter which way you gamble on the team. Or are we actually setting legal precedent that we know it's clearly shady and a problem when you bet on or bet for?

0

1511.327 - 1526.155 Surin Petro

I mean, give baseball credit. They outed Pete Rose. They sent him out. Pete only bet on his team, which I've explained many times over the years that, okay, so when he didn't bet on his team, he's making it pretty clear he doesn't think they're going to win.

0

1526.416 - 1536.132 Surin Petro

And even more importantly, and there are histories to this, when he did bet on the Reds, he would empty the clip on the bullpen to get the win.

0

1536.112 - 1541.141

Yes, yes. Was he keeping somebody at a Saturday night's game because he had 5,000 on Sunday's game?

0

1541.321 - 1560.952 Surin Petro

And I've talked to former Reds who will tell you that they all knew what was going on, and yes, they knew. They would joke around about, you better be ready to come into the game. Well, I've pitched two nights in a row. Doesn't matter. Pete's got down on Pete's down on us tonight. So you better be ready because he's going to he'll go to you if he needs it.

1560.972 - 1567.761

Yeah. Or why? Why? Why didn't you go get somebody on Saturday? Because, well, that guy, I need that guy to pitch tomorrow when I get money on it.

1567.781 - 1571.807 Surin Petro

So the whole like, well, but but he's betting on his team. How does that matter? No. Well, OK.

1572.107 - 1572.528

Not at all.

1572.688 - 1589.724 Surin Petro

If he's betting on his team minus seven and a half and you could take a knee. and get out of there because he's only up four, is he firing downfield? Does he end up getting somebody hurt on plays that should have been just draws and he's checking out and firing for the end zone to try to get the cover? It's a problem either way.

Chapter 5: How does the Chiefs' draft class compare to previous years?

1994.743 - 2007.782 Surin Petro

And so they like what they see there. Now, does that mean that they're legit starting tackles? I don't know. I think Esa Pole showed a lot. I don't feel bad about Esa Pole playing.

0

2008.342 - 2026.418 Surin Petro

And he's a guy who's new to football, so there's a reason to believe that he can be a lot better in the future as he gets more snaps and reps and time and the NFL weight program and nutrition and everything that goes into it. But I think there's clearly they want competition. My expectation is that there will be competition eventually.

0

2027.512 - 2046.481 Surin Petro

And Jalen Moore and his salary will play because, for one thing, if Jalen Moore plays and starts all year and leaves in free agency and you feel good about your guys moving forward, you can get a draft pick compensation for him. So I think somebody's really going to have to knock him out to be the starting right tackle. That would be my suspicion, but that is possible.

0

2046.981 - 2062.886 Surin Petro

That Jalen Moore just is okay, not as good as they thought he was going to be, and that they end up turning in another direction. We'll see. I think it is going to be one of the things, certainly going to camp, it's one of the things that Andy Reid was asked about today, has been asked about all along, and I think it's going to be one of the things we're definitely looking at when we get to St.

2062.906 - 2067.373 Surin Petro

Joe. 9133-810-810. Mitch, you're in the program. What's going on, Mitch?

2068.147 - 2088.797

Not much. You mentioned about the Texas courts trying to set a precedent, and maybe you can correct me, but the way I'm understanding why the NCAA wants the anti-trust, so that The schools can't like Texas Tech can't go to the courts and overrule their decisions. Is that true or am I? That is part of it.

2089.098 - 2108.879 Surin Petro

That is part of it for laymen. Like, are you a lawyer, Mitch? Because I'm not. No. OK, so for a couple of guys who aren't lawyers. Yeah, that's that's part of it. That and they want to be able to basically you get the antitrust so that you can violate labor laws. OK, so baseball and monopoly laws. Right.

2108.959 - 2122.066 Surin Petro

Like that's the main reason why baseball and the NFL and sports leagues have that is because they get to be the one league. And it's why the USFL won their lawsuit. But the courts did a bad job of explaining. how the penalties needed to be.

2122.106 - 2142.214 Surin Petro

The people who handed down a $1 penalty, which got tripled to $3, said, well, we thought we didn't know how much it should be, so we left it up to the judge to decide. And in reality, they were in charge of how much it was. The NFL was found to be absolutely a monopoly and that they had harmed the USFL's ability to do business.
