**Kelley Bydlon** (0:50)
That's right.

**Gill Alexander** (0:51)
To my left, to your right, right there on your screen. Deshaun Watson walking back his comments from yesterday. We were all over him yesterday for saying he was disrespectful by the fans to boo him the other day. He someone got to him.
Sure. Someone said, hey, Deshaun, maybe reconsider.

**Kelley Bydlon** (1:08)
That's one of those things, though, like it's it's what is it? Genie's out of the bottle. Like you said what you said.

**Gill Alexander** (1:14)
Your toothpaste is out of the tube.

**Kelley Bydlon** (1:15)
It's out of the tube. You said what you said. You can't go there to say, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. Like, no, no, no. You meant every word that you said.
You're not wrong in totality about what you said. You just should not have said that.

**Gill Alexander** (1:29)
Oh, before we get to Drew, real quick, because Drew Dinsick is standing by. One thing, you know, over the years here, I always say best listeners in the game. I want to say this before I forget. Best listeners in the game. And over the years, folks have been like, so kind of like give gifts. Yeah, it's like the most we don't expect gifts, but I guess sometimes they win bets that we suggest they get really happy. I mean, I've got over the years, I've gotten like Igor Sviatek tennis cards and Barry Bonds baseball cards. It's just the nicest, nicest things in the world. Yesterday, I got one of the greatest gifts ever. Donnie Miller, who listens to this show. Donnie Miller, I don't remember the detail of what he was like at a Cleveland Guardians thing or something. He wasn't really familiar. Anyway, his buddy tells him, oh yeah, that mentions Hunter Gaddis. He's like, yeah, that's Hunter Gaddis over there.
He goes, wait, did you say Hunter Gaddis? And Donnie remembers our worst beat of all time. The date was April 30th, 2024 Not like I don't remember that.
We were one out away from cashing 65 to one on the Cleveland Guardians, our first ever monthly bet, the first March, April of 2024 And Hunter Gaddis gave up a one out ding dong to Victor Caratini of the Houston Astros, crushing our bet.

**Drew Dinsick** (2:41)
Wow. And so apparently-

**Kelley Bydlon** (2:42)
I do not remember these details.

**Gill Alexander** (2:43)
Apparently they went, oh, trust me, I do. They went over and they told Hunter Gaddis this story. And Hunter Gaddis, kind enough to sign this baseball, which Donnie Miller brought over to us, Hunter Gaddis, number 33, sorry, Gill. It says sorry at the bottom.

**Kelley Bydlon** (2:58)
I couldn't read that at first.

**Gill Alexander** (2:59)
It's great. That's awesome. So Donnie Miller, thank you so much. That's very- it's both hysterical and-
Wow. I want to cry at the same time. So thank you. That's awesome.

**Kelley Bydlon** (3:10)
Good for you, Hunter Gaddis, with the attitude a lot of athletes have these days.

**Gill Alexander** (3:13)
So that's right. Thank you, Hunter Gaddis. I still don't forgive you, but this goes a long way. Drew Dinsick joins us now, courtesy of Progressive Guestline.

**Drew Dinsick** (3:41)
Yeah, I'll be there Thursday morning. Yeah, fine. Thursday morning. And what a great story on the 100 Gattas baseball.
You can put a dollar amount on that future. You can put a dollar amount on that 65 to one that was not not realized. You cannot put a price on that baseball.
