You're expecting a rookie who's a tweener player who's now going to be a full-time linebacker to hit the over four and a half. That, that, it's not going to happen.

The choice of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based solely on advertisements.

Rizzuto (1:35)

Yeah! All right.

All right.

Lern (1:39)

Tuesday, let's go. Tuesday, let's go.

Rizzuto (1:42)

It's a...

Moon Valjean (1:43)

Yeah.

Rizzuto (1:43)

Crisp Tuesday morning.

Moon Valjean (1:46)

We're having fun, talking about our favorite 80s and 90s baseball players of old. We're ready to go here, guys.

Rizzuto (1:52)

That's right. Otis Nixon for me.

Tony Patrico (1:56)

Oh, yeah.

Moon Valjean (1:58)

Andre Dawson.

Rizzuto (1:59)

Otis Nixon. I think he was a Cleveland Indian. Or maybe a Brave as well. Was he a Brave?

Tony Patrico (2:05)

I think he was, actually.

Rizzuto (2:07)

He was a Brave.

Moon Valjean (2:09)

My favorite Cleveland Indian was, by far, Kenny Lofton.

Rizzuto (2:12)

Kenny Lofton. And he could run Otis Nixon. I just remember getting a lot of his baseball cards and going, Oh, another Otis Nixon.

Moon Valjean (2:20)

Another Otis.

Jeff Burton (2:20)

Damn, another Otis Nixon.

Tony Patrico (2:22)

He finished with the Braves. Yeah.

Moon Valjean (2:23)

Put it in the Otis pile. Everybody finished with the Braves.

Jeff Burton (2:25)

That's how we started this.

Rizzuto (2:26)

I got 50 Otis Nixons.

Tony Patrico (2:28)

Damn.

Moon Valjean (2:30)

We're talking about Terry Pendleton.

Rizzuto (2:31)

We were just cleaning out our kitchen junk drawer. My wife found a whole bunch of Garbage Pail Kids.

Moon Valjean (2:38)

I thought she was going to find an Otis Nixon.

Lern (2:39)

And another Otis Nixon.

Rizzuto (2:41)

Gamut mixed in with the Garbage Pail Kids. And she goes, what do you want with these? I go, let me see these.

Lern (2:46)

Let me take a look at this.

Rizzuto (2:48)

Scotty Potty.

Moon Valjean (2:50)

Aren't those worth something?

Rizzuto (2:51)

Adam Baum. No, they were the newer ones.

Lern (2:53)

Oh, they were your kids.

Rizzuto (2:54)

They were like the newer. I go, get rid of them.

Get them out of here.

Tony Patrico (2:58)

You should have brought them in.

Lern (3:00)

I always get Sour Patch Kids mixed up with the, what is it called? The Garage Pail Kids? I never got into it. Garbage Pail Kids. Garbage Pail Kids.

Tony Patrico (3:05)

They were awesome.

Lern (3:06)

What's sour and delicious? Yeah, there's cards, I guess.

Moon Valjean (3:09)

1986 Garbage Pail Kids card series, $155.

Rizzuto (3:13)

I mean, if you have the complete set, these were just loose cards and they were the newer ones.

Lern (3:18)

It was like Cabbage Patch Kids meat gore. That's what it reminds me of.

Rizzuto (3:22)

We had a good one. I'm not going to take any credit. My wife cleaned out the kitchen junk drawer. Yeah. It happens once every two years.

There's light bulbs, like little mini light bulbs, there's keys, no idea to what.

Lern (3:38)

Don't know what these go to.

Rizzuto (3:39)

She goes, how do we have so many pens in this house?

Lern (3:42)

Yeah, and some of them are going to be dried out. Time to throw them out.

Rizzuto (3:44)

So she's got scratch paper, she's going through every pen to see if they work or not.

Lern (3:48)

God bless her. That's awesome.

Rizzuto (3:50)

Then I get yelled at for, quote, not admiring it enough.

Lern (3:54)

Look at this organized drawer. I know. I still do that to my husband. He's like, come look at what I've done.

Moon Valjean (3:59)

That's on you.

Rizzuto (4:00)

I go, I didn't ask to be part of this project.

Lern (4:02)

But you are a part of it. You live here. He's like, you're junk, dude.
