Hour 4: Aaron Judge Demands Yankees Go All In After Postseason Exit

Craig Carton (0:00)

By the way, there's the sports version of Haley's Comet happening tonight in the NBA. Do you have any idea what that might be, big fella?

Chris McMonigle (0:10)

No.

Craig Carton (0:11)

You're unaware as you should be. NBA season doesn't really get started for another week and a half or two weeks or so.

Chris McMonigle (0:16)

Yeah, what's happening?

Craig Carton (0:16)

But is the sports version, do you know what Haley's Comet is? What? Why don't you always give me a look? I don't know what you know and don't know. I'm asking you a question.

SPEAKER_3 (0:25)

It's not embarrassing you.

Craig Carton (0:26)

I'm like, do you know what it is? You just say you do, and that's fine. Let's move on.

Are you aware of what Haley's Comet is? Peter has no idea what Haley's Comet is.

Chris McMonigle (0:35)

No, I have no idea.

Craig Carton (0:37)

Oh, now you're going to be in your feelings. Oh, the idea is lost.

Chris McMonigle (0:40)

I'm miserable.

Craig Carton (0:41)

I have no sense of humor now. I can't laugh.

Chris McMonigle (0:43)

Haley's Sink Cleaner? I have no idea.

Craig Carton (0:45)

You know exactly what it is. Just acknowledge it. You know what it is.

Chris McMonigle (0:48)

I know what Haley's Comet is.

Craig Carton (0:48)

Okay, wasn't that difficult?

Chris McMonigle (0:49)

What is it, every 80 years?

SPEAKER_4 (0:51)

Jesus, I got married to you all of a sudden.

Craig Carton (0:53)

Come on.

SPEAKER_3 (0:53)

Haley's Comet?

Craig Carton (0:55)

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_3 (0:56)

Haley's Comet. I know what Haley's Comet is.

Craig Carton (0:58)

It's a comet that comes like once every 60 years or something like that, right?

Whoo, there it goes. Haley's Comet. Yes. Well, the sports version of Haley's Comet is happening tonight with the Philadelphia 76ers. They're all playing together tonight. You're not gonna see them, but maybe 15 times. You really think so? All year. Maxi, Edgecombe, Brown, Embiid and LBJ.

They are apparently all playing tonight. So if you're a basketball fan and want to see old men playing basketball, tonight's probably your only chance to do it.

Chris McMonigle (1:31)

I heard...

Craig Carton (1:32)

That's all it was.

Chris McMonigle (1:33)

I think Embiid lost a lot of weight. He's gonna really focus on staying healthy.

Craig Carton (1:36)

He lost a lot of weight and then he was late for practice.

Yeah. And then LeBron said Mike Breen made it up. And then Nick Nurse said, I can't believe it got out. It happened.

So already problems in Philadelphia. I love it. And then Mike Breen apologized, saying, if LeBron said it didn't happen, I apologize. I shouldn't put it out there. And then the reporters asked Nick Nurse, I'm not sure if you're aware of the scandal here, but Mike Breen, who's a well-respected voice, obviously, NBA Hall of Famer, said that Embiid was late for practice because he's notoriously late. Max used to talk about that.

And LeBron said, my man, unacceptable, we're on time for practice. Right. And then LeBron said that never happened.

Chris McMonigle (2:15)

New leader in tech.

Craig Carton (2:17)

Mike Breen apologized. Nick Nurse then just said, it happened. I'm just shocked he got out.

Chris McMonigle (2:24)

But that's LeBron. Look at LeBron.

Craig Carton (2:25)

Captain already.

Chris McMonigle (2:26)

Protecting his guy.

Craig Carton (2:27)

Right?

Chris McMonigle (2:28)

Getting after him and then protecting him.

Craig Carton (2:30)

Getting at him and then protecting him. Kind of like the old thing, I can make fun of you as my brother, but if someone else makes fun of you, I got a problem with that. And that's why I've always got your back.

Chris McMonigle (2:40)

Yeah.

Craig Carton (2:41)

Yep.

Chris McMonigle (2:41)

That's also why you bust my shoes so much.

SPEAKER_3 (2:43)

But I'm allowed to. We're family.

Chris McMonigle (2:45)

I know.

Craig Carton (2:45)

And you don't bust mine back.

Chris McMonigle (2:47)

I do.

Craig Carton (2:48)

I take a pretty good punch, my friend, from you.

Chris McMonigle (2:50)

Oh, really?

Craig Carton (2:51)

Yep.

Chris McMonigle (2:51)

I think so.

Craig Carton (2:52)

Let me ask you a question.

Chris McMonigle (2:53)

Nobody's. I mean.

Craig Carton (2:54)

You're sitting front row in left field last night.

Chris McMonigle (2:56)

OK.

Craig Carton (2:57)

You've had a couple beers, as we like to do the ball game. You're there with your two sons and your best friend, Mike. You've all got gloves on.

Chris McMonigle (3:06)

Yeah.

Craig Carton (3:07)

OK.

Deep fly ball to the left. This might tie it. What are you guys doing?
