What insights does Tony share about the Stanley Cup Finals?
Hey, it's Tony. On today's show, I'll get a chance to show off my soccer knowledge when we talk to Taylor Twelman about the World Cup, and we'll talk to Ryan McGee about what's going on with Texas Tech and their quarterback, Brandon Swordsby. But first, commerce. Previously on the Tony Kornheiser Show. And we want to get the momentum for the game because people really get jacked up. No, it's the most, for the casual fan, it's the only thing that matters. And if you don't, if they're not eligible because a trainer pulls them, it's not good. And I should say, Eddie knows all about horse racing, but he's way too big to be a jockey. And that's why he was a hockey player. Hey, Tony, I get near a horse and I can feel the vibe of being a former athlete in the National Hockey League.
What are Taylor Twellman's predictions for the World Cup?
Horses look at me and go, hey, buddy, you're not getting on the back of me. This is General George Washington, and you're listening to the Tony Kornheiser Show. So let's start with hockey. Former, former athlete. What does that make us? We just talked to Ed, so. You're not even a has-been. No, never was. You never was. Let's start with the hockey. I was particularly impressed when he said a couple of days ago that he would have made the same challenge that Torts did. Absolutely, he thought it was a goal. Torts, look at you. Torts. John Tortorella. Everybody calls him Torts. Torts. So they played last night. I didn't watch all of it, but I watched a bunch of it. Once again, high scoring. There's an empty netter at the end, but the four games between Carolina and Vegas
have been 5-4, 4-3, 5-4, 5-3. It's a tremendous amount of goals in hockey, particularly in the Stanley Cup Final Series. It's probably, it is no worse than the second most amount of goals in the Stanley Cup Final Series. in the first four games. Because going into this game, it was second only to the Minnesota North Stars and the Islanders in like 1981. And they just got eight more. They just got eight more. And it was another like, I think Carolina got out to like 3-1 or something like that. 2-0. 2-0, 2-1, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3. Yeah, just great. Yeah. So again, as we've said many times, our friend Bernie Wolfe, who was the Washington Capitals goalie, said a 2-0 lead is the shakiest lead in hockey, and it was again because ultimately it was tied.
What updates does Ryan McGee provide on Texas Tech's quarterback situation?
The winner was Jordan Stahl falling down. A backhander, as he's falling down, made the score 4-3, and ultimately that was the margin because it was an empty net goal. At the end. This is a real series. Look, I'm not going to pretend I know anything about hockey. I'm not. I mean, I've watched it my whole life, but I've never understood it. And I've never loved it the way I've loved baseball or football or basketball. But it's a great series. I mean, it's a high-scoring hockey series that goes back and forth. And there's no reason to believe it won't go seven at this point. Oh, sure. Yesterday on PTI... P.K. Subban said that this was an absolutely critical game for Carolina. They had to win this game or the series was over.
So you're asking a road team to win that game in Las Vegas, and they did. So I think it'll probably go seven, even if it's got to go at least six at 2-2. So you get your money's worth. If you're ESPN and you bought the series and you're putting it on TV, the ratings are going to go up every single time. Yeah. It's on ABC. So that means you don't have to worry about cable. You don't have to worry about the $327 you pay every single month to see something you want to see because it's over the air. It's on network television.
How does the Nats' recent performance impact their season?
Everybody can get it. You could send your dog up on the roof holding a bone, and that would act as an antenna, and you could get it in your house because it's on ABC, as is the basketball. That's why the ratings are so high, because they're not on cable. They're not. They're not on a subscription service. They're over the air. They're over the air. Don't. Yeah, get me started. When this whole world starts getting you down. Yeah, let's go up on the roof. Let's go up on the roof. All right. Can I just say one thing in referring to Eddie Olchek from the opening talking about horse racing?
