What sports updates does Tony open the show with (baseball and World Cup)?
Hey, it's Tony. On today's show, we will chat with Chuck Culpepper about the World Cup and his thoughts on Belgium thrashing Team USA. We'll also talk to Buster Olney about baseball and potatoes, probably mostly about potatoes. But first, commerce.
Previously on the Tony Kornheiser Show. 10 miles away, right there, you know, on the... In Queens, though, on the... On the Cross Island. Yeah, on Queens. Well, it's always very clear to me, is Elmont in Queens or is it in Nassau County? It's kind of half and half, I think.
Half of the track is in Elmont, Long Island, which is in Nassau County, and half of the track is in Queens. Or was, in the old track.
Yeah, the old track. But we're... Yeah, so we weren't that far. But it did make me think about, like, Chick Anderson, and I just said, he's eating like a tremendous machine. LAUGHTER This is General George Washington, and you're listening to The Tony Kornheiser Show.
I can't tell you how many emails and texts I've gotten praising Jeremy Schaap's appearance. We have them annually, and people love him, and I love him. So we're happy with that. For those people who watched PTI yesterday and you had to find it because we were bumped off ESPN to ESPN2 and justifiably because the Djokovic match was still going on in its fifth hour yesterday. A five-set match with, I think, three different tiebreakers. Tiebreaker at the end, 10-point tiebreaker that Djokovic won. So if you couldn't find PTI, you may have missed this. But I was, question came to me at the end of the show, how do you think Paul Skeens is going to do tonight? And I said, well, I think he'll get his velocity back up because his velocity has been down lately.
I think he'll go six innings, two earned, eight Ks. Six innings, two earned, four Ks.
I was close.
It helps to get spotted four runs on the first. Right. I was close on that. Yeah, O'Hearn drove in ten runs last night. Ten runs. Wait, and that's not the most amazing thing in baseball. His ten runs batted in. A guy I never heard of. There's a guy named Tolbert. on Kansas City who had 12 consecutive hits. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. No walks, no errors, no, no, no, no. Hits. Hits, 12 consecutive hits. That's actually unbelievable. So hit it. Yeah, that's actually unbelievable. What was the line you said? What did you say for Skeens? I said six innings, two earned, eight Ks. And he had six innings, two earned, four Ks.
Wow.
Well done. Are you listening to the show?
Yes.
No, I was just looking up. Did you think I made this up? We'd just like to check you could fit that baseball preview into all that soccer talk. I'll get to soccer, sure. And for those of you who expect me to talk about the Nats, the Nats lose. It's a dull game. I don't...
A slow game.
Yeah, I didn't care for the game one way or the other. I thought they left Alvarez in much too long. I didn't know what they were doing.
They're just trying to get to the break at this point.
Yes, it's discouraging. Are they under 500 now, or are they at 500? They're still a game over. Still a game over. It's discouraging to look at the crowd when Houston has no draw at all. There's nobody there. You know, Houston, a team that had won, not only had they won World Series, got involved in the scandal, and the Nats beat them in the World Series.
The entire area feels pretty empty in middle of July right now.
Yeah, it really does. So, okay.
You see this with traffic, except if you're on Wisconsin Avenue driving through downtown Bethesda.
Right. Watch out for the bus lanes. What is going on? Well, they're shutting down certain stops on the red line. So you've seen them putting up the no parking signs the last couple weeks. And I guess at the start of July, they've implemented this where if you get out at Friendship Heights on the metro train, you get out and you take a bus that'll take you up the pike. So they're only going north? They're not going south? Well, they're going to go south as well.
But I'm saying that, you know.
So they're dedicated bus lanes now?
Dedicated bus lanes.
Cars can't go. Are they also still dedicated bicycle lanes?
