What are Tony's thoughts on the Nats' recent performance?

Tony Kornheiser 0:00
Hey, it's Tony. On today's show, we will talk to Sally Jenkins about her involvement in the Netflix documentary about Chris Everett and Martina Navratilova. We'll also talk to Bob Ryan about why the Celtics traded Jalen Brown to the 76ers for basically nothing. But first, commerce.
Dr. Meg Meeker 0:18
Previously on The Tony Kornheiser Show.
Tony Kornheiser 0:22
When the Dutch coach came off the field, they said, have you already resigned? That's a tough crowd, right?
Dan Schwartzman 0:30
It is a tough crowd, but it's no different than Bo Schembechler at Michigan, right? You know when the Michigan fans say he's a Michigan man? You follow where I'm going with this? Yes, yes, yes. Ronald Koiman is 100% Dutch, and he managed that game as if nothing. He hated the Dutch.
Dr. Meg Meeker 0:55
I've never seen. The Tony Kornheiser Show is on now.
Tony Kornheiser 0:59
Let's do an announcement first because this is a big deal to me. This comes from Nancy Conravey in Abita Springs, Louisiana, if I pronounce that correctly. So would you please tell all the littles out there that the U.S. Adaptive Open is again at Woodmont Country Club. In Rockville, Maryland on July 6th through 8th.

What issues does Tony have with flopping and VAR in soccer?

Tony Kornheiser 1:15
It's an amazing event. That's what she says, so do you, that everyone would enjoy watching whether they enjoy golf or not. Admission is free, so spend some time being inspired. Do you want to explain what it is?
Sally Jenkins 1:25
And what's so great about this is they have parking is available. It's right across from the Best Buy, right off of the Pike, and you can enter directly onto the course. I think it puts you out on like hole number 12 or 13. And this is a golf course that is designed to be inclusive of players of all abilities. So you look out there and you see players driving carts into bunkers, driving up onto greens, playing tees that stretch all the way from what you would consider tournament tees that you see sort of every weekend wherever you're playing. And you have tees that go all the way up, you know, an extra 100, 200 yards in the fairway. It's a wonderful event. Can you explain who the golfers are and why they're doing this?
Sally Jenkins 2:03
different disabilities and there are different categories physical and yes and cognitive uh yeah i mean i can pull up the the full list of as to what are the qualifications it's a wonderful thing yeah and again a usg event this is different than just playing golf with your friends every single putt goes in the hole and to see the players play through everything every possibility
Tony Kornheiser 2:24
It is inspirational. There's nobody who's ever gone to it who hasn't come back, you know, teary-eyed, saying that was a wonderful, wonderful thing. So we mention that. There's nothing much to talk about with the Nats. Did not play last night, except for the suspensions. A couple Nats are sitting down. Yeah. Wilson Contreras was suspended for seven games. Cade Cavalli for seven games. Meatball Mikolas suspended for three or four games. This has no real effect on- It's a start, right? On Miklas, none, because he's a starter. Cavalli will miss one start. Wilson Contreras is going to miss seven games. Miss seven games. It's different. Yeah. It's different. A pitcher and a starting pitcher, not a relief pitcher, would be a different deal too.
Tony Kornheiser 3:06
But so the Nats came out of that better- than Wilson Contreras came up with.
Michael Wilbon 3:12
Yeah, but do you really think that's gonna derail the Red Sox in their quest to be the worst team?
Tony Kornheiser 3:15
No, the Red Sox aren't any good. The Red Sox aren't any good. Speaking of baseball, the Padres stink. They lost the other day 22-3 to the Cubs. They led the Dodgers last night 6-0 and lost 12-7.

What insights does Sally Jenkins share about the Netflix documentary on Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova?

Tony Kornheiser 3:27
They have spent a tremendous amount of money. Tremendous. Wilbon always roots for them. You're getting close to a decade of this. Yeah. A tremendous amount of money on players like Machado and Tatis and some pitchers. They stink. That manager's going to be fired. He's going to be the fourth manager this year to be fired. The first one was the Phillies. The second one was the Red Sox. The third one was the Mets. And the fourth one's going to be the Padres. They're going to have to fire him. Let me get to the World Cup now. Let's see you try and explain VAR, Tony.
