1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: Plot twist. Indianapolis Colts did not cut anybody yesterday. People 2 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: started cutting themselves, retirements all over the place. Good morning everyone, 3 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 1: Welcome into Thursday. We got football later on tonight. Mark 4 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: dykedon Good morning, Kevin Bowen, James Boyd. You guys are 5 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: both out of Colts camp yesterday. KB, we'll start with you. 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: Just go ahead and deliver. If people haven't paid attention 7 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: or just getting up this morning, delivered the big news 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 1: out of Colts camp yesterday. 9 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Xavid Howard has retired from the NFL. That was 10 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: announced yesterday evening. He was not practicing yesterday due to 11 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: a personal matter is what it was listed at. And 12 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,160 Speaker 2: then I don't know, probably an hour or two later, 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 2: the Colts announced that he was going on the reserve 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: retired list. He released a statement a little bit later 15 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 2: after that. We can get into his statement and everything. So, yeah, 16 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: certainly quite the news item. You don't see retirements in 17 00:00:54,160 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: season very often in the NFL. Yeah, I think I've 18 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: made my stance pretty clear on the level of plague 19 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: Xavian Howard had through the first four games. I don't 20 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 2: feel the need to, you know, reverse the car over 21 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: him here on this Thursday morning. In his statement, he mentioned, 22 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 2: you know, being with his family, et cetera, et cetera. 23 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: You know things like that. So certainly now we'll see 24 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: how the Colts try to whatever figure out their cornerback depth. 25 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, I guess big picture of the Colts just 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: should have vetted this a little bit more and not 27 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: handed him a starting job day one when he walked 28 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: into the building. But outside of that, you know, predicting 29 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: retirements and things like that, probably he's difficult. 30 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: So he's decided to walk away from the game that 31 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: I'm sure he loved. He said his family was more important. 32 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 1: We'll get some of that throughout the course of the show. 33 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 1: But he was not the only retirement announcement yesterday. James Boy, 34 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:45,919 Speaker 1: we have more to share today. 35 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, this was just after our show ended. 36 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 4: I believe when the team sent out the announcement that 37 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 4: Shaq Lennard the Maniac will officially retire as a cult. 38 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 4: He will return to Lucas Oil Stadium, have a ceremony. 39 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 4: I believe during halftime. We'll meet with him as far 40 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 4: as media goes before the game, and so looking forward 41 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 4: to seeing Shaq back here. 42 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: I know when things ended, he was hurt by how 43 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 3: he was waived. 44 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 4: By the team, but at that point he was not 45 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 4: the great player that he once was. But you know, 46 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 4: I believe Zaire Franklin was asked yesterday, like, you know, 47 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 4: is this one of those what if type of careers 48 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 4: considering the Hall of Fame trajectory. He was ed for 49 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 4: the injuries and Zayer said, no, you know, he gave 50 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 4: everything he had to the game, which I don't doubt 51 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 4: for a second. And we'll hear more from Shaq in 52 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 4: a couple of days. But yeah, that was I think 53 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 4: a fitting in for someone who should be, in my opinion, 54 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 4: probably headed towards the Ring of Honor someday. 55 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 2: They did want to ask you one question on Xavion 56 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: Howard in regards to the locker room on Sunday. We 57 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 2: didn't see him at all in the building of course yesterday. 58 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: It's not like he's a frequent necessarily locker room you know, 59 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: walker around her and chatting every Wednesday to the media. 60 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: But you did chat with him correct Sunday after the game, right, yes, 61 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 2: and locker room. Care to share what that experience was like? 62 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, First of all, he was not trying to talk 63 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 4: to us. He was trying to get out the door, 64 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 4: and we were like, wait a second, you got to 65 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 4: talk man, Like you had a pretty poor game and 66 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 4: we've been waiting to talk to you, and you're trying 67 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 4: to skate, and so I could tell, you know, the 68 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 4: bags were packed, and you know, he's just looking to 69 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 4: say anything to get away from us. And so the 70 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 4: question that still kind of rings in my head when 71 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 4: I asked him, can you assess your performance? And he 72 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: simply said, not to my ability, And so that kind 73 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 4: of stands out to me as we sit here a 74 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 4: couple of days later and realize, oh, your career. 75 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 3: Is now over. 76 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 4: So I know he gave a lot of statements about 77 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 4: his family, his kids, but I do wonder how much 78 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 4: of his level of play factored into that decision and 79 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 4: how abrupt it was, because again, you can think about 80 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: your kids and your future and your family, all of 81 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 4: that leading up to signing a contract with the Colts, 82 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 4: and so you came here, you were feeling good. I 83 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 4: think after week one I went to the Instagram page 84 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 4: he had posted, you know this basically video of him 85 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 4: after the game, hugging with all the former Dolphins players. 86 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 4: Perhaps you only vindicated that he won that game, had 87 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 4: a fumer recovery in that game, but then it went 88 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 4: downhill from there for Xavin Howard. So poor play plus 89 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 4: him wanted to be with his family led to him 90 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 4: I would imagine retiring. 91 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: So Zavian Howard has retired. Shaq Leonard says he's retired 92 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: from the NFL. We'll talk a little bit more about that, Kevin. 93 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 1: I know you and I were in the press box 94 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: together back when Shack was just doing his thing, coming 95 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: into the league as a rookie and making an instant impact, 96 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: and just the range that he had, the hustle and 97 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: the big playability, just always punching at footballs, always around 98 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: the football, jumping up and grabbing an interception, jumping up 99 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: and tapping some football away like those first couple of 100 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: years before the injuries set in. It was electric to 101 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: watch him play on the football field. 102 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the word I used all yesterday. And I 103 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 2: don't think we talk about linebackers very much from an 104 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: electricity meter, if you will, but he was that. I mean, 105 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 2: how many big plays in the fourth quarters too, not 106 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: just like hey, you're forcing to turnover. I could think 107 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 2: of just moments where the Colts had allowed whatever a 108 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: touchdown and two touchdowns in a row, and you're like, gosh, 109 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: unless Lenyard makes a play, they're screwed. Sure enough, fifty 110 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: three makes a play, the interceptions, the force fumbles obviously, 111 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: the punch out, and boy, you think he'll bring some 112 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 2: juice to the old anvil coming up on Sunday. I 113 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: think he'll be a little bit more energetic than maybe 114 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 2: Edrin James was in Week one banging the old anvil. 115 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: There we'll get to Zaiah. Franklin told a great story 116 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 2: yesterday in the locker room about shack in him being 117 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: roommates on the road. And Leonard had an eighteen tackle 118 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 2: game in his first ever NFL road game, and let's 119 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 2: just say his sleeping arrangements the previous night not ideal 120 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: for an NFL football player, not ideal for anyone for 121 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 2: that matter. So I think this is really cool. Like 122 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: the Leonard thing ended awkwardly, it ended suddenly. It ended 123 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: mid season. James. It was the day of, if I'm 124 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 2: not mistaken, the day of his Thanksgiving meal delivery. I 125 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: can remember being over near Covenant Christian High School and 126 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 2: he stood in front of those cameras with his you know, wife, 127 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: right there and answered everything about what had just transpired. 128 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 2: And this is a guy that was on a Hall 129 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: of Fame pathway with four All Pros in his first 130 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: four seasons. So great for the Colts. Great on the Colts, 131 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 2: I should say, great on check Leonard for this happening. 132 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 2: You know, not everybody can go in the Ring of Honor, 133 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 2: but I think it is a really cool way to 134 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 2: honor a player that I think, No, I think you 135 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: need some longevity with it. I'm a big believer when 136 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 2: you talk Hall of Fame, when you talk Ring of Honor, 137 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 2: I think there's a longevity component that's needed. But like, 138 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, a great, great football player, Like 139 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 2: I want to be really clear on that, and I 140 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 2: think this is cool. You get him in front of 141 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 2: the crowd and again bang the Anville and you know, 142 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 2: for four seasons here he was a world of a talent. 143 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 2: It's just unbelievab So kudos to everybody involved from making 144 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: this happen. And in a game that probably lacks a 145 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 2: little bit of juice, Shack Leonard will provide some of that. 146 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: Let me ask you guys this question about Shaq Leonard 147 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: and the Ring from twenty fifteen to now ten year period. 148 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: Namely the defender that has had more of an impact 149 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: when he played than Shack Leonard with the cults. 150 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: Oh well, probably none. 151 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I just I think that makes I 152 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: hear your longevity. But I also, like I said, those 153 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: those I know it was only what three three and 154 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: a half years, maybe four if you stretch it out, 155 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: like he was the guy that was the making the plays. 156 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: He was making game deciding plays, He was making impacts 157 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: almost every week. 158 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I can see both sides of it. I'm always 159 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 4: leaning more towards your peak. How good were you at 160 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 4: your peak? And it was a very short peak, considering 161 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 4: that I would imagine he wanted to play longer than that. 162 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 4: But I certainly see us even even in the text 163 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 4: line Shane says, you know he does not belong in 164 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 4: the Ring of Honor. And I can see both sides 165 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 4: of it. But nevertheless, great player and really a good 166 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 4: person too. He was crazy as far as with the media. 167 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 4: The first guy ever got yelled at in the NFL 168 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 4: was Shaq Leonard yelled at me. 169 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: You don't bleed blue. At one point, you don't bleed blue. 170 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 4: I think he told me to keep that same energy 171 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 4: after they beat the Chiefs in twenty twenty two. And 172 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 4: I can say this now, but did you see how 173 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 4: the season went. The energy was not kept the same 174 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 4: for the rest of that group. That was a rough 175 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 4: season for them. But nevertheless, he was someone who will 176 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 4: hold you accountable. He DM me one time on Twitter 177 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 4: to yell at me about something and then he like 178 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 4: apologized later that week about it. So he was a 179 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 4: very emotional guy. But also I mean I enjoyed it. 180 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 4: I like people who bring their issue straight to you, 181 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 4: so you certainly didn't have to guess where you still 182 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 4: with Shack. And to give him credit whenever he's away 183 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 4: from the facility, he wasn't really like I think that 184 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 4: was a different side of him because when I saw 185 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 4: him the day he got cut at that Thanksgiving giveaway, 186 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 4: the man you know, after that he just talked to 187 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 4: us like regular people and was asked what was going on. 188 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: I would always be struck by that day James and 189 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 2: really handled honestly everything and obviously physically he was dealing 190 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 2: with a lot. I frankly thought he should have taken 191 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: the rest of the year off. He joined the Eagles 192 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 2: for a couple of weeks. Unfortunately it didn't go well 193 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 2: there he was at I don't know if you saw that. 194 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: He was at the Fever game the other night, sitting 195 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 2: I think it was actually right behind Obie topping with 196 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: his girl, so it was you know, he's not living here, 197 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 2: but it was cool to see, you know him obviously 198 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: still has a lot of affinity and if you follow 199 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: him on Twitter during Colt's games, he's tweeting during games 200 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 2: and he's still very much involved in it. 201 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: Well, it's gonna be fun to talk about him and 202 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: always been great in the community. But yeah, a couple 203 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: of retirement announcements yesterday out of West fifty sixth. One 204 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: obviously Shack Leonard is really not played for a bit 205 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: and wants to retire as a cope with the other one, 206 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 1: Xavian Howard is like, yeah, I'm done. I'm just done. 207 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: We were all talking about whether or not he should benched, 208 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: where he should be playing next. You know, he's like, yeah, 209 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm out. So I always kind of respect that when 210 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: a guy's like, yeah, I'm out. 211 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 5: Kevin, you want to explain your shirt this morning? That's 212 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 5: a cup shirt you're wearing. Did you lose a bet 213 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 5: that we did not make what's going on there? I'm 214 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 5: very confused about your wardrobe decision today. 215 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 2: Mark amidst our roller coaster of a relationship. I call 216 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 2: you a friend and I'm here to support you today. 217 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 5: I don't know if we want your bad juju jumping 218 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 5: over here to the north side. 219 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 2: Here. I am trying to be supportive and are you 220 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 2: not accepting it? In a game today where they have 221 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: to win to keep their season alive, My Reds today 222 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: are hungover. They are off to Cabo. They stink. They've 223 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 2: been dead for a month. The Mets were just deader 224 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: than them. The only wildcard team not to advance to 225 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 2: a third game, the Reds. I'm trying to They got 226 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 2: steam rolled once again last night by the Dodgers. So here, 227 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: I am, Mark, trying to support you. That's purely what 228 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 2: I'm doing, trying to be a good friend. 229 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 5: Trying to think of the word that happened to the Reds. 230 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 5: They didn't win a game in the series, meaning they 231 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 5: got what would even be that word? They got swept 232 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 5: out of the playoffs. I thought it was only a 233 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 5: two game series. Though I know you're you're yeah, you're 234 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 5: very about the two games. Things yes, but that seems 235 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 5: like that's the sweet my friend. 236 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: I was hoping for some relevant maybe Rick Carlisle audio 237 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: to describe one career of Tristan Thompson of you know, 238 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 2: maybe the Reds in the preseason or them. 239 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 3: It was, uh, it was fun while it last yed, 240 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 3: I got. 241 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: You, buddy, you could probably play that for maybe Xavien 242 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 2: Howard's time with the. 243 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 5: So the Reds get swept out of the playoffs in 244 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 5: two games, So it is possible to have a two 245 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 5: games sweep. Apparently, so Kevin needs to update his UH. 246 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 5: I would over the years no shirt, thinking he's just 247 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 5: gonna hop on the bandwagon a team, and he is. 248 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 5: I'm supporting freaking verbally all season long. Now you want 249 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 5: to jump aboard the bandwagon, we don't want your bad juju. 250 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 5: I think you could go throw on the Dodd shirt 251 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 5: or or something like the Tigers or the Guardians. Your 252 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 5: money's no good here. You're not allowed on this Cubs bandwagon. 253 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 5: All of a sudden, I don't know where that shirt 254 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 5: came from. I have very lot of questions. Or is 255 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 5: that a purchased shirt? Did you borrow it from a friend? 256 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 2: Came from the closet. I think it looks pretty good, 257 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: does it not. I haven't seen a lot of wrinkles. 258 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: I'm just curious. I mean, I don't own any Reds apparel. 259 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 6: Now. 260 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 2: A lot of things in the closet fit very well 261 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: these days for me. 262 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: So all I know is apparently I'm not the only 263 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: PCA fan around here. 264 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 5: I was gonna say, you don't like Jeff's PCA, but 265 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 5: you see. 266 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: I'm not a Cubs fan. I'm here to support Mark. 267 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 5: Bad juju that is vibing in this studio. This early 268 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 5: one wants nothing to do with any of this. 269 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just disgusted looking at it. 270 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: I mean I'm disgusted with the rets. I mean, think 271 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: about it. Yesterday, you see all these teams backs against 272 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: their wall, they deliver. We get three game threes today, 273 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: exactly what you want. The only team not to stretch 274 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 2: you to a game four and outside of their they 275 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 2: do it. 276 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 5: Just the start times for the games because the Reds 277 00:12:58,720 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 5: couldn't show up there. 278 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 2: I am you know Max Bones, you know Whine and 279 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 2: I can't sleep, blah blah blah. I'm sitting next to 280 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 2: his bed watching the Reds game at twelve oh one 281 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: thinking somehow in the eighth Any and TJ. Friedl strikes 282 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: out of the bases loaded. 283 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: I mean, this is just tying run came to play 284 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:15,559 Speaker 1: this stink same. 285 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 2: Thing in the sixth bases loaded, no outs, just pathetic. 286 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're playing against a team with like a seven 287 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: billion dollar payroll. 288 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 2: Well, their bullpen stinks and the Reds couldn't touch it. 289 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 5: Well, I expect you to announce the Cubs lineup later 290 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 5: today and who's the starting pitcher. I'm assuming you're gonna 291 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 5: have all that knowledge readily available to you all of 292 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 5: a sudden yesterday, Sony Bankster, is that Kevin Bowen here? 293 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: Whoever? The padres through out there, they did a nice 294 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: job against your buddy. 295 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: All right, we'll tell you all about it. 296 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 2: Apparently, in a moment, Brian's asking me if I'd like 297 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 2: to join the Guardians train. Brian, we'll see again. I'm 298 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: supporting my friend. It's disappointing to hear him not be 299 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 2: accepting of that. 300 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk all about it throughout the morning. Here, 301 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: let these two bicker back and forth during the break, 302 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: James wisely staying out of it. Over there, it's the 303 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: Fan Morning Show ninety three five and one oh seven 304 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: five The Fans. 305 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 7: The Morning Checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh 306 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 7: seven five The Fan. 307 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: All Right, we've been talking about it for a few 308 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: minutes this morning. If you're just joining us, a couple 309 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: of announcement retirements from Colts camp yesterday. One makes a 310 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: lot of sense. The other one you're like, well, it 311 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: makes sense, but didn't see that one coming today. Kevin Bowen, 312 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: who retired yesterday out at West fifty sixth. 313 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, so Xaviing Howard, who has really really struggled in 314 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 2: his four games with the Colts of this season. That 315 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 2: announcement came, you know, yesterday evening. He hit a long 316 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 2: post on Instagram explaining a little bit more of that. 317 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: Maybe we can read that coming up on the other side, 318 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 2: So much debate this week about what they should do 319 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: with Xavion Howard, and he's decided to exit stage right. 320 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: So they promoted a safety Tray Washington, undrafted free agent 321 00:14:55,360 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 2: from their practice squad here upcoming for this week. And 322 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 2: then Shack Leonard, who has not played football course for 323 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 2: a couple of years, but a wonderful, wonderful career and 324 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 2: unfortunately injuries marred the length of that career, he will 325 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 2: retire on Sunday as a cult. So you'll get the 326 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,479 Speaker 2: pre game Anville from Shack Leonard, you'll get the halftime 327 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 2: on the field speaking to the crowd. And like I said, 328 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 2: I think one of the more electric players put on 329 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 2: Colt's uniform, and I think are really really great gesture 330 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 2: by the team and allowing Shack to have I think 331 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: a deserved moment after his cut mid season a few 332 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 2: years back was just a tad awkward. 333 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: All right, So, James, what do the Colts look like 334 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: when they take the field as a starting lineup in 335 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: that secondary on Sunday? 336 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 3: That's the question. 337 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 4: Do you go with Makai Blackman or do you go 338 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 4: with Jonathan Edwards the undrafted rookie. You still can't turn 339 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 4: to Jalen Jones because he's a week away from possibly 340 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 4: returning from injury reserve with his hamstring injury. And so 341 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 4: it certainly is kind of like a little bit of tetris. 342 00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 4: You know, how many pieces can fit and how can 343 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 4: you get to fit in a very short amount of time. So, 344 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 4: and Kenny Moore than practice yesterday exactly a good thing 345 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 4: to mention that Kevin so I think when you look 346 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 4: at their cornerback Rome. I mean, the question going into 347 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 4: this week was where are you going to bench Xavin Howard? 348 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 4: And he made the decision for you by literally leaving football, 349 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 4: and so now on your other options are kind of 350 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 4: what ifs, And I would argue that the what ifs 351 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 4: are probably a little more enticing still than what is 352 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 4: or what was with Xavion Howard and how poorly he played. 353 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: All right, so the Colts will play the Vegas Raiders 354 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: coming up on Sunday afternoon one o'clock kick pregame starts 355 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: at nine o'clock. The ride to kick off with JMV. 356 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: He will of course be at Bullseye Events Center, and 357 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: then we'll have all the pre game for you the 358 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: game itself. Greig Raagstraw has the post game after that 359 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: you'll listen to it live on ninety three five and 360 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: one oh seven five The Fan. A little bit more 361 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: on injury for Kelsey Mitchell James, have you learned how 362 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: to spell rhabdomyolysis milosis? I should say. 363 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 4: No, I have no idea, but I did look this up. 364 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 4: Sounds very very serious. So I'm glad that the medical 365 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 4: staff in Vegas was able to attend to her right away, 366 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 4: not only at the facility, but later on that night 367 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 4: as she went to the hospital, and she literally, i 368 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 4: think in her statement Kelsey Mitchell put out said she 369 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 4: played until wheels fell off, and so again, hats off 370 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 4: to her, glad that she's okay. From what I understand, 371 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 4: even if the fever had advanced, she would not have 372 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 4: been playing in the finals due to this, and so 373 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 4: it sounds like it's pretty severe. But the good thing 374 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 4: about I guess having this happen at the end of 375 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 4: the season is that you get all this time to 376 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 4: recover and so just you know, prayers up for Kelsey Mitchell, 377 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 4: and I'm glad that this isn't a story that is 378 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 4: more tragic or something than it needed to be, because again, 379 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 4: this sounds very very serious. 380 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, that uh wrapped on myialysis. I'd never heard of 381 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: it in my entire all these decades do in sports. 382 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: So hopefully it's going to be okay moving forward. But 383 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: she seems to be moving on from it, and we 384 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: start to worry about who the Fever will keep, and 385 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: who have a get poached to the upcoming expansion draft 386 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: and who they're going to pay money to and we 387 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: don't know what the CBA is going to be about. 388 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: So nothing but questions Kevin Bowen for the Fever in 389 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: the off season. 390 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, exit interviews today.

Exit meetings 397 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 2: for the Fever. 398 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: All right, Thursday Night football coming away a little bit 399 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: later on tonight and the week five.

Rams looked pretty good last week, 409 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: and I don't know if Rock Perty's gonna be able 410 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: to play tonight, so it'll be ruled out right. 411 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, they've already ruled him out as on as well Kilnsey. Yeah, 412 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 5: they very well also ruled out Ricky Piersall and Juwan Jennings. 413 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 5: So forty nine er is kind of a mass unit 414 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 5: over there. 415 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: Mark will be starting at wide receiver on my Fantasy 416 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: Football League team tonight. Well that's it. 417 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 2: Take that out then, Brian Baldinger at eight o'clock, Mark, 418 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 2: is that correct? 419 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 6: Huh? 420 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: All right, look forward to that. Do you guys hear 421 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: about this Big ten proposal? They want a two billion 422 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,479 Speaker 1: dollar private capital deal where whoever gives them the two 423 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: billion dollars will have an equal stake in what goes 424 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: on in including investment. They might get money back to 425 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: but that would be spread evenly across not only the 426 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: league but all eighteen teams. And this whoever this investor 427 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: would be would be a twentieth partner in the deal, 428 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: so they wouldn't have like a majority, say of anything, 429 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: but they it would be a big investment and an 430 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: extra two billion dollars to spread across the league. That 431 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: just keeps getting more and more. The coffers keep getting 432 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: bigger and bigger. Yeah, I just read the headline there, 433 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: so that they give that to me again. They would 434 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: just be the twentieth seat at day They basically, yeah, 435 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: would be a twentieth seat at the table, but they. 436 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 2: Would call it two billion dollars the twenty They. 437 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: Would also be able to get whatever the income movieing 438 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: forward is for the league. They would also get a 439 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 1: twentieth of that moving forward. 440 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 2: Is Colge Athletics is wild. 441 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: It's crazy. 442 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,120 Speaker 5: I'll never be a billionaire. That sounds like a bad 443 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 5: deal for them to hand it out two billion dollars. 444 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: It's not the guys if the two billion dollars could 445 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: probably take ten million dollars and turn it back into 446 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: fifty million dollars. They seem to be able to do 447 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: that those guys, So who knows Anyways, a proposal they're 448 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: talking about, it seems like it's something that might take place. 449 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: Anything else you guys want to throw in this morning? 450 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 2: Well, the Major League Baseball schedule shifts a little bit today, 451 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 2: so I know we got used to the one, three, six, nine, 452 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 2: I think where the start times.

It all unfolds 510 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: in the next two and a half hours right here 511 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: on ninety three five and one oh seven five, I'm 512 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: gonna talk a lot about the Indianapolis co Cults in there. 513 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: Game five this week against the Las Vegas Raiders is 514 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: the fifth week of the NFL season, kicks off later 515 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 1: on tonight. But there's been so much activity at the 516 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: field House over just the last several months. We went 517 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,239 Speaker 1: right up to the very last possible date of the 518 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: NBA season, and then the fever took over and people 519 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: started paying attention to them, and every time they had 520 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: an injury, somebody else stepped up and they made it 521 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: all the way to the very last game of the 522 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: semi finals. They'll have exit interviews today. The fever will 523 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: over at the field House just a couple of days 524 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: after media day for the Pacers, and before you know, 525 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: we got Pacers pregame or preseason game coming up in 526 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: just a minute. Like we talk about, you know, basketball 527 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: being different here in Indiana and in forty nine other states, 528 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: it's it's just basketball. We get all that, but man, 529 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: this has been a six month run. Kevin Bowen. That 530 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: kind of demonstrates that it just doesn't stop. 531 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 2: Fan jam on Sunday if you're looking to get a 532 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 2: little Pacers fix in before the Colts game. I believe 533 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 2: it's eleven AM and I saw a really cool event. 534 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: I think Sports Corp is big and initiating this not 535 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 2: I think it's two thursdays from now. I want to 536 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 2: say it's the sixteenth. You have an Indiana Purdue volleyball 537 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 2: match inside a Gamebridge field House, So that's pretty unique, 538 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: pretty cool. I think sometimes you've seen Victory Field host 539 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 2: some college baseball games between Indiana and I think I 540 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 2: want to say Pudy has been involved. Maybe it's just 541 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 2: noted in ball States some others. But I love that, 542 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 2: you know, I get a little atmosphere inside of an 543 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 2: NBA arena for to Big ten, which is the Big 544 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: Ten is a load in volleyball. So it's a littlegit 545 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 2: conference in So Due, Indiana here in a couple of weeks. 546 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 2: So Gamebridge Field. That's very, very busy. And yes, the 547 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 2: Pacers first preseason game coming up on Tuesday. That's a 548 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 2: road game to start off. 549 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you guys are busy with Colt stuff 550 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: later on today, but anybod excuse me, anybody plan on 551 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: checking out the exit the interviews for the fever or 552 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: he's too busy with culture. 553 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, I have no time to go unfortunately, but 554 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 4: I'll be curious to see what Caitlyn says her offseason 555 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 4: plan is, and an update from Kelsey Minchell herself, and 556 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 4: then you know, hearing from management you have three players 557 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 4: under contract going into next year. Those three players are 558 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 4: Kaitlyn Clark, Leah Boston, two franchise Pillars, and then rookie 559 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 4: now going into her second year, Mikayla Timpson. And so 560 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 4: a lot of decisions to be made about this team. 561 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 4: I know people keep saying, oh, run it back with 562 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 4: the same group. It is literally not possible because the 563 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 4: injury factors and things like that. They had so many 564 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 4: players on the team because somebody got hurt, and so 565 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 4: unfortunately this group will not be together again. And so 566 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 4: I'm glad they had that run. They should chair as 567 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 4: shit because it'll certainly look different next year. 568 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: And a lot of the offseason is still to be determined. 569 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: We got a collective bargain agreement that needs to be 570 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: ironed out. What's the salary cap going to be after 571 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: all that is said and done. How does that impact 572 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: the players that they want to keep don't want to keep. 573 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: Two teams will be having an expansion draft, so you 574 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: can't protect everybody at that point in time. So it 575 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: really is kind of all up in the air right now. Kevin. 576 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: It's hard to say just exactly past the three or 577 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: four players that we know or have a pretty good 578 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: idea that you're either under contract or you can bring 579 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: them back as a core player like Kelsey Mitchell. Hard 580 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: to say exactly the bottom five six players on that roster, 581 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: who exactly that's going to be made up of. 582 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, and even before the injuries, this was likely going 583 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 2: to be kind of a one year thing. I mean, 584 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 2: de Wanta Bonnor was a one year deal and Natasha 585 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 2: Howard was a one year deal. 586 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 3: That they they push all the chips to the center, 587 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 3: to the table and they let's go win. 588 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: Money for that too. Right for de Wanta Bonnor, they 589 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: got some dead cap money on that. I think No, 590 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: they paid. 591 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 3: Her and in the Mercury picked up the rest of 592 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 3: our contract. 593 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 1: But yeah, well, it'll be interesting to watch it all 594 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 1: play out and we'll learn a little bit more about 595 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: how things went. And I think you made a great 596 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: point earlier. What's Caitlin Clark going to say in regards 597 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: to the CBA in the recent comments by an officia caller, 598 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: you're about the commissioner kat the Engel print. 599 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see if she has any public comments about that. Today. 600 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 2: Have been a while since we've heard Caitlyn Clark talked 601 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: to the media, So an exit interview is coming up 602 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 2: a little bit later this morning for the Fever. 603 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: All right, and it's back to work for the Colts. 604 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: Is they get back onto the field again for the 605 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: second day in a row this week, getting ready for 606 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: the Raiders. We talked about it a little bit during 607 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: the update. But injury situation, you talked about Kenny Moore, James, 608 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: who else are we really worried about right now? 609 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 4: That was I believe one of the main ones. I 610 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 4: have to go back and look and see who missed 611 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,880 Speaker 4: yesterday's practice. So I think those five absences Kevin, Yes, 612 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 4: Sarah Franklin. 613 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 2: The ankle. The only reason I bring that up. Zarah Franklin, 614 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 2: you know, plays every game, but you know he did 615 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 2: have ankle surgery in the off season. You know is 616 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: at the same ankle. You know, I didn't see any 617 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 2: boot on him, James. He was out there observing practice yesterday, 618 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 2: Alec Pierce back and in a blue jersey. So the 619 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 2: fact that he wasn't even in a red jersey no contact, 620 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 2: I would say, concussion protocol. You never know, you can 621 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: have a step back or two. But I would say 622 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 2: good sign that Alec Pierce plays on Sunday. Do you 623 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 2: think that impacts eighty mitchell situation at all in Week five? James, certainly, 624 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 2: I think that's a pretty big factor. 625 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 4: And I mean, honestly, talking to Shane yesterday, I asked 626 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 4: him flat out, will adi Mitchell play against the Writers, 627 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 4: And he said We'll see how the week goes. So 628 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 4: it sounds like he could be in the doghouse this 629 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 4: upcoming weekend. 630 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised to anybody. It'll be interacy how 631 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: it all plays out when they kick the ball off 632 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: at one o'clock, and we'll talk more about that coming 633 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: up at the top of the hour. Brian Baldinger will gain. 634 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 1: It's kind of a national perspective and a guy that 635 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: you want to talk about. He is a fun follow 636 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: on social media. He breaks things down. 637 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: Great great follow So Mark, good work on getting that. 638 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 2: He was on the call by the way of Colts Rams, 639 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 2: that's kind of the relevancy and tying it into where 640 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: the Colts are here in week five. Thank you to 641 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 2: Charlie for this.

This 658 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 2: is unbelievable. Here they lost to Penn State. I mean, 659 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 2: what in the who in the world is looking this up? 660 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: By the way, I did see, you know, Arkansas is 661 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 2: now open that job of course after Notre Dame dusting 662 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 2: them on Saturday. You know, Barry Odom was the defensive 663 00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 2: coordinator at Arkansas.

Red Sox can't wait, what 835 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 2: a great little Thursday leading into I think RAMS forty 836 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: nine ers at the very least is a great uniform matchup. 837 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 2: Rams are a heavy favorite, and this one going up 838 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,359 Speaker 2: against Mac Jones as they should be. Yeah, I think 839 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 2: it's over a touchdown. 840 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: I'm very excited. I have no kids to take anywhere 841 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: at all today. And when I said three o'clock, my 842 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: broadcast day may end today here. When I say broadcast, 843 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: my day in the building may end around noon twelve thirty. 844 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 1: I might go home and just watch sports from three 845 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 1: o'clock until I fall asleep today. 846 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 2: Well, how are you going to manage Jake and john Huh? 847 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 2: How are you going to manage Jake and john If? 848 00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:59,439 Speaker 1: Does anybody manage Jake and john? 849 00:37:59,480 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 6: Exit? 850 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: Well, does anybody really manage Jake and Johnson. 851 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 2: Might argue that they need it. 852 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 5: I'm one percent ben every day. 853 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: That's not my saying. By the way, no, did you 854 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: just take a shot in gentlemen and Jake? 855 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:16,280 Speaker 6: No? 856 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 2: Okay, you can interpreted that. Have you liked? 857 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 6: No? 858 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: But I'm excited. I literally I can go home today 859 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: and starting at three o'clock with Tigers guardians. I just 860 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: watched baseball and NFL football all day. I never get 861 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: to do that during the week days. 862 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 2: You're excited Feely's nipples. 863 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 6: J James. 864 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 2: I was thinking, I took a turn yesterday watching Colts practice. 865 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 2: Mac Gonzalvee is back to practice. We should mention that, Yeah, 866 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 2: the right guard the game against the Rams, so gonzalve 867 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 2: is back, Alec Pierce back, assuming those two play. Have 868 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 2: the Colts had their starting offense intact for every game 869 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 2: this season but the Rams game? 870 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 3: I believe so. 871 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 2: Yes, it's kind of wild. Five games in the season, 872 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 2: you've had your starting eleven together for four of those 873 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 2: five games. And I would probably then put that in 874 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 2: the optimistic category of a reason why you continue to 875 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 2: feel good about the three and one start to the season, 876 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 2: Like when your offense has been helped now again, you know, 877 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 2: seventeen games to long grind. I'm not gonna act like 878 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 2: you're after starting eleven together in November and December. But 879 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: when this unit has been together, they've scored, and they scored, 880 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 2: you know fine on Sunday, certainly Vadi Mitchell holds onto 881 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 2: the football, they score fine. I don't know that that 882 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 2: is a definite good news item. I think for the 883 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 2: Colts because be consolve as injury. That was kind of 884 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 2: an under the radar one from Sunday. 885 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I mean, in my opinion, there's no really comparison 886 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 4: between his level of play and Dalton Tucker. Now give 887 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 4: Dalden Tucker credit. Started seven games last year, started the 888 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 4: game this year in the absence of Maganzalvez, and he 889 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 4: did what he was supposed to do. Is like a 890 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 4: backup right guard, and it kind of gives you a 891 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 4: chance and hopefully he serves as the stop gap, but 892 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 4: he certainly is not a starter in this league. And 893 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 4: so I think getting Maganzolways back in there will stabilize 894 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 4: your offense. And let's not act like he has not 895 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 4: been good this year, you know, moving from tackle to guard. 896 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 4: I think he's made a pretty good transition, and it's 897 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 4: shown up on tape more often than not. And so 898 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 4: you're curious see how that toe feels, how response to 899 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 4: the first day of practice yesterday, getting back out there, 900 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 4: but assuming that he's able to go, I think that's 901 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 4: a big boost for this offense that you know, last 902 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 4: week Daniel Jones was under some pressure more than he 903 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,359 Speaker 4: had been I think previously to that game. 904 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 1: You know, I was looking at it last night. I 905 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 1: think that there are nine if I remember right in 906 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 1: a long time last night, long time ago. I think 907 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: there are nine teams right now that are three and one, 908 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 1: and the Cults certainly are one of them. And I 909 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: would imagine this second quadrant of the season is where 910 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: teams maybe start to make their separation runs within their division, 911 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: within their conference just a little bit. But you guys 912 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: surprised to find out that after only four weeks there's 913 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:46,919 Speaker 1: only two undefeated teams left. 914 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 3: I'm actually not no. 915 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 4: I mean, this is the NFL, the League of parody, 916 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 4: which is why I think it's one of the best 917 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 4: leagues in the world. You know, we can a week out, 918 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 4: no matter what the money line might be or the spread, 919 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 4: it usually will come down to the wire for a 920 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 4: lot of these games. 921 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 3: And so not surprised at all. Football is weird, man, 922 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 3: As I keep. 923 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: Saying, Yeah, Buffalo and Philadelphia mark the only two undefeated 924 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: teams after four games so far. 925 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 3: Two great teams. 926 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 2: I know I've teased you I should probably we should 927 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 2: probably get a little bit more detail because Brian Baldinger 928 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 2: is going to join us here in a few The 929 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:22,320 Speaker 2: Xaving Howard statement from yesterday again, he released this on Instagram. 930 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 2: A little bit of a long statement, so bear with me. 931 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 2: But throughout my career, I've always played football for the 932 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: love of the sport. I enjoyed everything that came with 933 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 2: being a part of the NFL. Is my passion for 934 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 2: the game that drove me. I love and appreciate the 935 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 2: Dolphins for drafting me and giving the chance to play 936 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 2: pro football. I cannot thank the Colts enough for letting 937 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,360 Speaker 2: me to continue to live out my dream. But my 938 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 2: dream has now changed. I'm getting closer to God and 939 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,399 Speaker 2: asking that he directs my path. I'm a man of faith, 940 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 2: and I believe wholeheartedly that he doesn't make mistakes. He's 941 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 2: led me to ending my career. I'm now putting God 942 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 2: in my priorities. First, when I was away from the 943 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 2: game in twenty twenty four, I fell in love with 944 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 2: taking my kids to school, doing activities with them, and 945 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 2: watching them grow up. Up to that point, I always 946 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 2: put my family after football. I'm no longer willing to 947 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 2: do so, so today I am retiring from the National 948 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 2: Football League. My purpose has been fulfilled in this sport, 949 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 2: but my kids are more important to me. Than football. 950 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 2: I've had hell of a career, and even though it's 951 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 2: ending in a unique way, I'm cool with that because 952 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 2: for once, I'm putting my family first and I'm proud 953 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,280 Speaker 2: and excited about that decision. 954 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: The words of a man he struggled a little bit 955 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: in the first couple of weeks. Certainly had a pretty 956 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: good career before he took last year off, and maybe 957 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: he just decided, you know, at the end of the day, 958 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm not playing all that well, I'm tired of hearing 959 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: negative stuff. It's not working out, and I'd just rather 960 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: go back to being with my family like last year. 961 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 4: Well, you have a lot of money and you can 962 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 4: be on the beach every day. That's very tempting. And 963 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 4: so I do not blame him for saying, you know what, 964 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,399 Speaker 4: I actually don't want to go run my body into 965 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 4: other people. I want to go sit down and be 966 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 4: with my family. And again, I do think he didn't 967 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,399 Speaker 4: really mention it in that statement, but I do think 968 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,400 Speaker 4: the level of play had to be a factor. He 969 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 4: was not a good player anymore in this league. And 970 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 4: so you know, respect anyone who kind of sees the 971 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 4: riding on the wall. 972 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 1: All right, coming up at a moment, Brian Baldinger joined us. 973 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,479 Speaker 1: He'll talk about the Colts, what he sees, what he likes, 974 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: what he's uncovered after all that meticulous film work. We'll 975 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: get into a next on ninety three five. Brian Baldinger 976 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 1: coming up in just a moment here to talk NFL 977 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 1: as we've got another Thursday night game tonight and the 978 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: Colts get ready for a game against the Raiders on 979 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon. We'll get into all of that and find 980 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 1: out what he's been seeing on on film and tape 981 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: from this football team. Baseball today, three games. It all 982 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: starts at three, the Tigers and Guardians lead it off, 983 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 1: and these are all game threes. Winner take all? Right, Mark, 984 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 1: you ready to go for that? 985 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 6: Yeah? 986 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: Pod raising Cubs at five? When does the drinking start? 987 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 8: Who's to say it hasn't started already. I kind of 988 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 8: got to be in this cup. I kind of got 989 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 8: that vibe there with the intro. I was just checking 990 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 8: in and then I guess tonight's night gap would be 991 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 8: the Red Sox and the New York Yankees, and that's 992 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 8: These have all been really good series to watch for 993 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 8: different reasons. 994 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 5: All the one was really. 995 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 2: Good yeah, agreed, Mark, thank you for that. That was 996 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 2: a great game yesday, Red Sox Yankees back and forth, 997 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 2: and BOYT, just how quickly your emotions have to go 998 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 2: from we've kept our season alive to oh my gosh, 999 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 2: we have to do it again tonight. But yeah, says Mark, 1000 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 2: eloquently pointed out, the Reds are officially dead. 1001 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 1: See I laugh only because I have to join you. 1002 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 6: Now. 1003 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:22,360 Speaker 1: That was almost a nervous left. 1004 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: Well if you don't laugh, you cry. The bases loaded 1005 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 2: in the sixth with no outs, Radell had a chance. 1006 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 2: If Ddell on the eighth strikes out. Looking again, if 1007 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 2: you don't laugh, you cry. 1008 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 1: Because if people were just waking up too and didn't 1009 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 1: see that, because it was very late game, they had 1010 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 1: the bases loaded, he was the tying run at the plate, 1011 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 1: and that was that. What were you thinking during that 1012 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,359 Speaker 1: at bat? Were you up? Because you said Max was up? 1013 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 2: So yeah, I was up, and I'm thinking, why am 1014 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 2: I up? Just go to sleep. The Red stink they're dead. 1015 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 2: This is not going to happen. You're wasting your time. 1016 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,879 Speaker 1: So three pretty good games later on today, looking forward 1017 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: to that, and then I'll lead right into You'll have 1018 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 1: to have if you're just a sports fan like me, 1019 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 1: I'll have the two TVs going to see Boston and 1020 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 1: New York on one and of course the Sun of 1021 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: the Thursday night football game on the other. And we 1022 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: just saw the Rams and it seems like they would 1023 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,479 Speaker 1: have the advantage over a team playing without their starting 1024 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:15,240 Speaker 1: quarterback tonight. 1025 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, big favorite. I think eight and a half. I 1026 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 2: believe the Rams over the forty nine ers. Gat no 1027 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 2: brock Purty for it tonight. 1028 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 6: All right. 1029 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 1: Happy to welcome in our next guest. I used to 1030 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: work with him at Sporting News Radio. Brian Baldinger does 1031 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,360 Speaker 1: just fantastic work all the time. He posts his stuff 1032 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: on social media. Is one of my favorite people to 1033 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: listen to when it comes to why things work and 1034 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: why they're not working, and who's playing well in the 1035 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: National Football League. And he is on the Payless Liquors 1036 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: Hotline right now. Good morning, Baldi, how you been. 1037 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 6: Hey, good morning, I'm doing good. 1038 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 1: Good to be with you, guys, Always good to be 1039 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 1: with you. So I guess first things first, like three 1040 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: and one, Daniel Jones has played pretty well. Are these 1041 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 1: cults for real? Is this something that can sustain? 1042 00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 6: Well? 1043 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 9: I think you find some corners. I mean they're cornerback 1044 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 9: short right now. That's an issue. It's an issue around 1045 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 9: the league. It's not just Indianapolis. It's an issue though. 1046 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 9: I mean, obviously Xavian didn't work out, and who could 1047 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 9: put it to him, but I mean he had he 1048 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 9: you know, he'd get a point nine years in his business. 1049 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 9: You can't run quite like you want to run and 1050 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,919 Speaker 9: the way he once did. And so now he's out, 1051 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:18,240 Speaker 9: and so that's an issue. 1052 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,919 Speaker 6: But I think they're for real. I think uh, I think. 1053 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:25,359 Speaker 9: Daniels, you know, I mean, you could take the interceptions 1054 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 9: by Cam Curle last week. Ones at the end of 1055 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 9: the game, the one is is a good deep shot. 1056 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 9: They certainly had those chances to win the game. A 1057 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 9: couple of boneheaded plays by you know, some guys. But uh, 1058 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 9: I think they're for real. I mean that was a 1059 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 9: that's a good Rams team. You're gonna see him tonight. 1060 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 9: They're very well coached. 1061 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 6: They've got some star power on that team, a lot. 1062 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 9: Of good young players and quarterback that's you know, still 1063 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 9: rolling really strong. So yeah, I think the culture for 1064 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 9: real and Jacksonville's for real. And we'll see if Houston 1065 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 9: could come out of the crypt right now. But I 1066 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 9: think they're off to a good start. 1067 00:46:58,320 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 2: Paudy, I know you were on the call and thank 1068 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 2: you for the time here on this Thursday morning. I 1069 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 2: know you're on the call on Sunday and you saw 1070 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,359 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones and you know you hit on a little 1071 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 2: bit right there. But what you've observed from afar, I 1072 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 2: guess the first three weeks and then in person on Sunday, 1073 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 2: what do you make of what Daniel Jones and change 1074 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,200 Speaker 2: Sychin have done through the first four weeks. 1075 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 6: Well, he. 1076 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 9: Knows where he wants to go with the ball, and 1077 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 9: he's very very certain about where he's going, and he's 1078 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 9: very good at getting it there. You know, they obviously 1079 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 9: could have won that game easily except for two bad plays. 1080 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:32,839 Speaker 9: But but regardless of the offense, makes a lot of sense. 1081 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,800 Speaker 9: There's ty Warren has made a big difference in that offense. 1082 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,840 Speaker 9: The offensive line has played really well. Jonathan Taylor is 1083 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,440 Speaker 9: on his game. I like the design, I like the 1084 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 9: way getting guys open and a little. 1085 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 6: Creativity to some of it. But I feel like Dangle Jones. 1086 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 9: Is playing the best football he's ever played, and that 1087 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 9: includes the year that they went to the playoffs. 1088 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 6: But he's an elite athlete. 1089 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 9: He always was, you know, coming out of Charlotte, coming 1090 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 9: out of the Duke, and he still has all that ability, 1091 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,879 Speaker 9: his ability to scramble, to extend plays, all that is there. 1092 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 9: But he's I think he really knows what he's looking 1093 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 9: at right here, and and he can put the ball 1094 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 9: where he wants to put it, you know, in tight spots, 1095 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 9: and it's been doing it for the first month of 1096 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:14,919 Speaker 9: the season. 1097 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 6: I don't think that's going to change. 1098 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 2: Paldy. 1099 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 4: Are you surprised at all with how well he's hit 1100 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 4: the ground here in Indianapolis, just given the resume with 1101 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 4: the Giants? 1102 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:26,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, look, there's not a whole lot of 1103 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 9: his guys that went to Duke that play played in 1104 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 9: the NFL, so we kind of know each other and 1105 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 9: pay attention. 1106 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 6: But I you know, I mean I've always pulled for 1107 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 6: the guy. 1108 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 9: He's always been a straight shooter with me, and you know, 1109 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,680 Speaker 9: we've always had a pretty good relationship from afar, you know. 1110 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 9: But I you know, I've been critical of Daniel before, Yeah, 1111 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,279 Speaker 9: because I think there was moments where you know, he 1112 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 9: really was unsure about what he was doing and it 1113 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:51,920 Speaker 9: showed up on film. 1114 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,879 Speaker 6: But he's very, very sure about what he's doing. 1115 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 9: So that's that's the time that him and and uh, 1116 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 9: you know, Shane are really getting along quite well. And 1117 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 9: so I think the talent around him is as good 1118 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,719 Speaker 9: as it's ever been. That includes when he had Saquan 1119 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 9: and you know, some good players there in New York. 1120 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 9: But the talent round him is really good, and so 1121 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,799 Speaker 9: h you know, I think it now with Piersack will 1122 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 9: really help. But regardless, uh, it's the best I've seen 1123 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,399 Speaker 9: him play. And that's just this short sample, it's one month. 1124 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 9: But he's very very he's very confident about what he's doing. 1125 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 3: Again. 1126 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 4: Brian Baldinger joining us here on the payofs Slickers Hotline, 1127 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,839 Speaker 4: NFL Network, Fox Sports. All of the above, Brian, when 1128 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 4: you look at the way Tyler Warren has changed this offense, 1129 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:39,279 Speaker 4: what stands out to you and what do you like 1130 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,360 Speaker 4: about just the greediness of his blocking and things of 1131 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 4: that nature that perhaps maybe go unnoticed as opposed to 1132 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 4: all the catches in yards. 1133 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 9: Well you said it, I mean the gritties. I did 1134 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 9: not know ty Warren. So I went to the Pro 1135 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,400 Speaker 9: day in Penn State this year and I got a 1136 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 9: chance to interview him and just watch him go to work. 1137 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 9: I mean, the guy is he said, like, for example, 1138 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 9: this is Ty Warren. We wanted to get him for 1139 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 9: the NFL network in an interview, and he goes, baldy, 1140 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 9: I'll do it, but wait till everybody gets done. 1141 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:11,479 Speaker 6: Like he wanted to. 1142 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 9: Support all of his teammates at Penn State and all 1143 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,319 Speaker 9: the things they were doing, and then he would give 1144 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 9: us a few minutes. That kind of tells you a 1145 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,280 Speaker 9: little bit. He's all about team. But he's just so versatile. 1146 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 9: He lines up at receiver, he lines up in the backfield, 1147 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 9: they line up in the backfield and they you know, 1148 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,399 Speaker 9: they drive him through the line and you know, link 1149 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 9: him out the back against Denver for forty yards. He 1150 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 9: catches everything. He's good after to catch, you know, on 1151 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 9: the Jonathan Taylor touchdown run that got called back, you know, 1152 00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 9: he's the lead blocker on the play and he gets 1153 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,320 Speaker 9: it done. He's not you know, he's not John Mackey. 1154 00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 9: He's not knocking guys on their back. He's not ground. 1155 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,440 Speaker 9: But I think he's going to get her at it, 1156 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 9: and he's he certainly makes a difference, but you know, 1157 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 9: just just the versatility of what. 1158 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 6: He can do and the dependability. 1159 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 9: And there's nothing like having a six foot six monster 1160 00:50:58,120 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 9: in the middle of the field to throw it to. 1161 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:01,800 Speaker 6: And I think every quarterback would welcome that. 1162 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 2: Think you know that voice. Brian Baldinger with us here 1163 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:08,280 Speaker 2: on the Payless Slickers Hotline on this Thursday morning. And Baldy, 1164 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 2: the social media videos you do and breaking down some 1165 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:16,279 Speaker 2: film are electric every single week. I am maybe a 1166 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 2: little biased. Some of my favorites are when you get 1167 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:23,439 Speaker 2: going on a good Quintin Nelson pancaker too, Where does 1168 00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 2: that rank for you good Quentin Nelson film breakdown in 1169 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 2: terms of your energy. 1170 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,839 Speaker 9: He would have been there this week because he had 1171 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 9: a great pancake on I believe it was Braydon Fisk 1172 00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 9: on Jonathan Taylor's touchdown run. 1173 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,879 Speaker 6: They get called back, but he had a great block there. Yeah. 1174 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 9: I think, Look, he's he's had to play with a 1175 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 9: new left tackle, he's guy, had a new center and Bordolini. 1176 00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:45,839 Speaker 6: It doesn't really matter. 1177 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 9: I mean he's still and I talked him a little 1178 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 9: bit more the game on Sunday. I feel like right 1179 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 9: now he's probably as healthy as he's been in the while, 1180 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,560 Speaker 9: and it does show like his power is still there, 1181 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:02,160 Speaker 9: his attention to detail is still there. But you know, 1182 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 9: a good pancake from Quinton is right there at the 1183 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 9: top of my not just the top of the videos 1184 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,399 Speaker 9: that I do every week. It's it makes my life 1185 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:10,200 Speaker 9: better when I. 1186 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 6: Get to watch that, you know, like I just hit 1187 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:13,280 Speaker 6: in a better mood. 1188 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 10: Nothing like watching a human road greater always, Brian, I'm 1189 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 10: just curious, what are you saying from defensively the Cults 1190 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:25,720 Speaker 10: under lou An Aroma, what what's been different? 1191 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 6: Well, I think they've been better, you know. 1192 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 9: I know Kyron had a couple of good runs last week, 1193 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 9: but I think they've been better against the run. The 1194 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 9: run Fits I look better. I feel like I feel 1195 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 9: like he's got just a monster and deforce Buckner, you know, 1196 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 9: and he hadn't had a really really great three sneak 1197 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:48,840 Speaker 9: in a while. 1198 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 6: But I just feel like the run Fits will be better. 1199 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 6: And Lou. I talked to Lou. 1200 00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 9: I mean, he lives right down the block for me 1201 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 9: in Florida, you know, whenever he's home. But you know, 1202 00:52:58,360 --> 00:52:59,839 Speaker 9: I talked to him on the field before the game, 1203 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 9: and I think he was really nervous about phokat to 1204 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 9: be honest with you, but uh, you know, I think 1205 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:09,799 Speaker 9: that they're just gonna be very sound. I know the 1206 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:13,279 Speaker 9: quarterback situation is a problem for any coordinator. I feel 1207 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 9: like they're gonna be really sound about what they're doing 1208 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,240 Speaker 9: and how they go about it. He's a great coach 1209 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 9: and he's a He's an excellent play caller. He gets 1210 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 9: He's had some big moments in big games where his 1211 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 9: the pressures that he's using or how he's attacking third downs. 1212 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:34,800 Speaker 6: It's it's unique. 1213 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 9: He has a unique way of attacking offenses. And I 1214 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,799 Speaker 9: thought for most of the part on Sunday up until 1215 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 9: thet well, you know, touchdown, I thought he did a 1216 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 9: good job of even though Pook had a big game 1217 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 9: of really containing that offense, that didn't really explode him. 1218 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:51,799 Speaker 1: Yep, we lost him. 1219 00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:54,920 Speaker 9: I think I think Zaia Frankl's gonna have another monster year. 1220 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,880 Speaker 9: Like his linebackers will make a lot of tackles, so 1221 00:53:58,080 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 9: he's off to a good start. He likes it, he 1222 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,839 Speaker 9: likes the new changes. I talked to Desire before the game, 1223 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 9: like he's you know, he's a unique player and that 1224 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:07,840 Speaker 9: he can find the football anywhere on the field. 1225 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 6: And then do something about him. So I think this 1226 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 6: thing is I think they. 1227 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 9: Found the right guy. I thought they were I don't know. 1228 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,720 Speaker 9: I thought they were very vanilla, you know, under Guss 1229 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 9: and some of the things that they were doing. I 1230 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,840 Speaker 9: think this is gonna be a little bit more creative. 1231 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 4: So, Baldy, the last one I have for you, and 1232 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 4: this is kind of serious, but not very serious. Well, 1233 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 4: what's the setup when you're breaking down film?

We'll here, will he not play 1438 01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:48,240 Speaker 1: this Sunday? We really don't know the answer to that, 1439 01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 1: but we know what's gonna happen in the secondary was 1440 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 1: Zavian Howard James Boyd. I don't think any of us 1441 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:55,480 Speaker 1: saw this one coming yesterday, did we? 1442 01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:56,240 Speaker 6: No? 1443 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 4: Not this This is very shocking to see Xavion Howard 1444 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 4: retire mid season only a month into the season. Some 1445 01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 4: people were saying, oh, he hadn't played, Well, what do 1446 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,320 Speaker 4: you think was gonna happen? Not that, I mean, that 1447 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 4: is very rare for a player to do that. But 1448 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,800 Speaker 4: tip the cap to Xavin Howard on what was a 1449 01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:14,439 Speaker 4: really good career, you know, two time All Pro, four 1450 01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 4: time Pro bowler, but just not the player he used 1451 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,080 Speaker 4: to be. And he cited that he wants to go 1452 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:21,440 Speaker 4: spend more time with his family, which nobody can really 1453 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 4: hate on that. 1454 01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and thirty two years old, especially taking a year off, 1455 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 1: kind of a gap year, and then trying to come back. 1456 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 1: That's a big ask for a cornerback in the NFL. 1457 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 2: Kevin, Yeah, and again my issue with the Colts is 1458 01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:34,080 Speaker 2: you handed him a starting job right when he walked 1459 01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,800 Speaker 2: in the door without playing football for a full year. 1460 01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:40,240 Speaker 2: I just the vetting process is wild to me that 1461 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 2: that was the situation that the Colts deemed acceptable and 1462 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 2: then continue to play him the amounts that they played 1463 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:50,000 Speaker 2: him in those four games without really blinking about his role. 1464 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:53,520 Speaker 2: So I think that's where the regret is. But you know, 1465 01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 2: he's had a hell of a career, James. I don't 1466 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:59,000 Speaker 2: know if our audience fully realizes. Four time Pro Bowl, 1467 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,600 Speaker 2: two time All Pro, and he entered the league in 1468 01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:03,760 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen. I want to say the number is twenty 1469 01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 2: nine interceptions. Yeah, nobody in the NFL since that year 1470 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,960 Speaker 2: has had more interceptions. So it was a great player, 1471 01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 2: but unfortunately at that position. Yeah, that position, when it goes, 1472 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 2: it goes in hurry and unfortunately, think you saw that 1473 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:22,520 Speaker 2: this year. 1474 01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 6: All right. 1475 01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 1: That not the only retirement though. Over at West fifty six, 1476 01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:30,720 Speaker 1: Shaquille Leonard has decided to officially retire as a member 1477 01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 1: of the Indianapolis Colts. Hadn't played for a couple of years, Kevin, 1478 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:34,920 Speaker 1: but he made that announcement yesterday too. 1479 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, slightly different on the news meter, but yeah, so 1480 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 2: on Sunday, if you are at the game, you will 1481 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,000 Speaker 2: see Shack Leonard bang the anvil. You want to talk 1482 01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 2: about a man that will bring the energy, that is 1483 01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:46,160 Speaker 2: no debating that. And then at halftime, he will speak 1484 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 2: with the crowd. 1485 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 6: Uh. 1486 01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 2: And so I think it's awesome, you know, I I 1487 01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 2: mean Shack Leonard again, electricity like none other as a 1488 01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:57,280 Speaker 2: football player, four time All Pro in his first four years. 1489 01:04:57,600 --> 01:04:59,920 Speaker 2: We'll play that Zarah Franklin audio maybe coming up a 1490 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 2: on eight forty five, A great story about him and 1491 01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:06,600 Speaker 2: Shack the night before the first road game in the 1492 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,400 Speaker 2: NFL and where Shack Leonard had to sleep that night 1493 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:13,120 Speaker 2: because of Zia Franklin. But you know, I think it's 1494 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:16,280 Speaker 2: cool that both parties got to this point. You know, 1495 01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 2: it didn't end well here in India. It ended awkwardly 1496 01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:20,720 Speaker 2: for Shaqulinder all. 1497 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 3: Believe Shack said literally quote it's like they pushed me 1498 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:24,280 Speaker 3: out the door. 1499 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. And just you know, it happened to be on 1500 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,680 Speaker 2: the same day as him passing out Thanksgiving meals over 1501 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 2: on the West Side. It was so weird. So for 1502 01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 2: this moment to happen, and again Shack was at the 1503 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:38,200 Speaker 2: Fever game with his family the other night, I think 1504 01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:41,240 Speaker 2: that's great. So looking forward to Sunday, Shack Leonard deserves 1505 01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 2: that sort of attention. 1506 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: Indiana Fever will put a big bow on their twenty 1507 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,640 Speaker 1: twenty five season this morning as they have exit interviews 1508 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 1: with all the media. Several players will be available, including 1509 01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark, and that one might get interesting, James Boyd, 1510 01:05:56,160 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 1: based on recent comments from other players in the WNBA. 1511 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 4: It might I believe Caitlyn and the Feasi Collier actually 1512 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 4: shared the same agent, and so it might have been 1513 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:10,600 Speaker 4: strategic to use her name. The FEASA Collier, that is, 1514 01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 4: use Kaitlyn's name in her speech, basically eviscerating the league 1515 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:18,680 Speaker 4: and the commissioner of Kathy Engelbert. So I'm very curious 1516 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,760 Speaker 4: se if Kaitlyn Clark will commat any further. Initially she 1517 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 4: had no comment on Theficia Collier's statement. 1518 01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 3: However, they were in the playoffs at that point. 1519 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:27,840 Speaker 4: You probably don't want to get out there and say 1520 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 4: a bunch of stuff while your team's trying to still compete. 1521 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,320 Speaker 3: But now the season is over. 1522 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 4: I wonder if she will change her tune and kind 1523 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 4: of enlighten us a little bit. So I'm sure Tony East, 1524 01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,400 Speaker 4: among the others there will have it all covered. 1525 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 1: And it's going to be a big offseason for the 1526 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Indian nfver they kind of went all in for this year, 1527 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: made a bunch of moves, and then there's all kinds 1528 01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:48,320 Speaker 1: of people that had to play because of injuries and whatnot. 1529 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:50,680 Speaker 1: Got an expansion draft coming up, which, by the way, 1530 01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 1: a couple of people have asked me, what's that going 1531 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:55,560 Speaker 1: to look like. We don't really quite know with two 1532 01:06:55,600 --> 01:06:57,120 Speaker 1: teams what's going to look like yet. I don't think 1533 01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,000 Speaker 1: it's been spelled out, and they're waiting to see how 1534 01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:01,320 Speaker 1: it all works out with the elective bargaining agreement, and 1535 01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:04,320 Speaker 1: that could be very contentious. I don't know that right 1536 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 1: now as we sit here, James, I don't think it's 1537 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 1: one hundred percent guarantee that we start the season on 1538 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:08,760 Speaker 1: time next year. 1539 01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:13,400 Speaker 4: No, this does not seem like negotiations are going well, 1540 01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:16,600 Speaker 4: and I would not be surprised at all if we 1541 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:19,120 Speaker 4: see a delay in the season or a stoppage of 1542 01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,479 Speaker 4: some sort, because it sounds like, you know, both sides 1543 01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:24,439 Speaker 4: want to dig their heels in and when it comes 1544 01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,760 Speaker 4: to the CBA agreements and contracts and things like that, 1545 01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 4: if you want to give what you want, you have 1546 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 4: to really fight for. I mean, these owners are not 1547 01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 4: going to give it to you. 1548 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,200 Speaker 1: All right, Thursday night football comes your way. In the 1549 01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 1: National Football League. Later on tonight, forty nine Ers playing 1550 01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 1: at the Rams. We just saw the Rams against the 1551 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 1: Colts a couple of days ago and Kevin. The forty 1552 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 1: nine Ers will be playing without their starting quarterback brock 1553 01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:47,920 Speaker 1: Perty again. He's had foot issues, but Matthew Stafford and 1554 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 1: his receivers don't seem to be having too many issues 1555 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:50,760 Speaker 1: these days. 1556 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe rob having signed their right tackle Tyler Higbee. 1557 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 2: Both I saw were doubtful, so a couple of injuries 1558 01:07:57,080 --> 01:07:59,840 Speaker 2: exiting that games favored by eight and a half the 1559 01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,000 Speaker 2: and this one. Jason Hammer will join us coming up 1560 01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 2: in a little over an hour to see where his 1561 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:08,560 Speaker 2: money is at. Coming up tonight Thursday night football, great 1562 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:09,280 Speaker 2: uniform game. 1563 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:12,360 Speaker 1: Now, both those teams are three and one going into 1564 01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 1: this contest. Tonight college football. Later on this weekend, number 1565 01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 1: twenty two Illinois will be playing at ross Aids Stadium 1566 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,880 Speaker 1: a noon kickoff against Purdue. This can be a pretty 1567 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:23,160 Speaker 1: good test for Purdue. Where are they right now? With 1568 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: Barry Odom just four games into his I guess five 1569 01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 1: games into his ten year now. 1570 01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, coming out of a bye week, they have not 1571 01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:30,840 Speaker 2: ran the football well. I think that will be a 1572 01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:32,840 Speaker 2: big key for them, but I want to say it 1573 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,559 Speaker 2: spreads hovered right around ten. So great opportunity for Purdue 1574 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:39,360 Speaker 2: at home to be an Illinois team that you know, 1575 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:43,639 Speaker 2: I think has certainly played some quite a few interesting 1576 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 2: games this season. The Duke game was wild earlier in 1577 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:48,200 Speaker 2: the year, and then obviously IU beats the absolute breaks 1578 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:50,680 Speaker 2: off them, and then the USC game was back and 1579 01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:52,799 Speaker 2: forth and took a game winning kick. So good opportunity 1580 01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:54,440 Speaker 2: for Purdue to try and pull off the episode. 1581 01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 1: And Notre Dame. We'll host Boise stayed at three thirty. 1582 01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:58,679 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball last night, Padre shut out the Cubs 1583 01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 1: three nothing, many with Shado with a monster home run 1584 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 1: to break the scoreless tie. Was the Guardians over the 1585 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 1: Tigers play a score of six to one. Red Sox, 1586 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:09,439 Speaker 1: Yeah they had a chance, but they lose to the 1587 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 1: Yankees four to three. That series even up at one 1588 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,720 Speaker 1: game apiece. It looked for a minute like they might 1589 01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 1: close that one out. The Dodgers did close out the 1590 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 1: Reds last night. 1591 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:18,679 Speaker 2: The Reds are officially dead. 1592 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 5: Yes they are. 1593 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:23,439 Speaker 1: I can't, I can't. 1594 01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:27,360 Speaker 2: I can't say it was that today marks like twenty 1595 01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:30,639 Speaker 2: minutes ago. Okay, the Reds are officially dead. They did 1596 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:32,200 Speaker 2: have I sound so sad. 1597 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 1: They did have a breef two nothing lead after the 1598 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,080 Speaker 1: first inning. Kevin gave us some hope for a minute. 1599 01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:38,120 Speaker 2: They did shout out to Sal hitting it the other 1600 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:40,559 Speaker 2: way there, and he actually was one of the few 1601 01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 2: that showed up last night. But you knew it wasn't 1602 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,519 Speaker 2: gonna last. They interviewed Tito. I feel like it was 1603 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 2: like the second or the third. I he could even tell, 1604 01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 2: like Zach Lytel was not going to last. So yeah, 1605 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:55,840 Speaker 2: the Dodgers spend a lot of money, but damn that 1606 01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,479 Speaker 2: still is frustrated not to be even competitive. Really, neither 1607 01:09:58,479 --> 01:09:59,400 Speaker 2: of those two games if. 1608 01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:01,920 Speaker 1: You love baseball. Triple header today starts at three o'clock 1609 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: with Tigers at Guardians. At five, Podrais and Cubs, and 1610 01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,799 Speaker 1: then at eight o'clock the Red Sox and the Yankees. 1611 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,559 Speaker 1: All three Mark are win or go home.

It walk 1661 01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:16,519 Speaker 2: us through pacer practice, flight time to Vegas, flight back 1662 01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:19,600 Speaker 2: from Vegas, and you're back at Pacers practice yesterday? 1663 01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 11: It was only like, well, I guess if you count 1664 01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:25,799 Speaker 11: both practices about a twenty four hour experience. 1665 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:27,599 Speaker 6: They practiced at twelve thirty. 1666 01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 11: Tuesday was their first one, so I wanted to be there. 1667 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:33,080 Speaker 11: Left a little early because my flight was at two thirty. 1668 01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:38,759 Speaker 11: Flew through Dallas to Vegas. Game one. I landed about 1669 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,920 Speaker 11: thirty minutes before the game, so barely made it on time. 1670 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:46,080 Speaker 11: Game five of Aces Fever and then an eleven thirty 1671 01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 11: pm rad I threw Atlanta back here that I got 1672 01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 11: home at about ten ish and then they practiced at 1673 01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:52,759 Speaker 11: twelve pagers practice at twelve thirty. 1674 01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:57,760 Speaker 2: Unbelievable. That is wild to me. Were you scheduled to 1675 01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 2: land thirty minutes before tip? Or was that a del No? 1676 01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:03,960 Speaker 11: The slight delay. Unfortunately, I was trying to get there 1677 01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:06,679 Speaker 11: like four forty five I think was the original time. 1678 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 11: Can you gained so much time with time changes in 1679 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 11: the air that it's possible to do this right, But 1680 01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 11: you can work as well if your plane is stuck 1681 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:15,920 Speaker 11: on the ground. 1682 01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:18,479 Speaker 2: You are insane. Brother, God, I don't think. 1683 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 3: I don't think you deserve much credit at your job. 1684 01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:21,000 Speaker 6: Do your job. 1685 01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:25,080 Speaker 2: You did your job. Unbelievable. I agree with that chance. 1686 01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,759 Speaker 11: The thing is I can sleep so easily on planes 1687 01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:30,000 Speaker 11: that like it's I get that, it's like not comfortable, 1688 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:31,760 Speaker 11: but it worked well because of that. 1689 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,479 Speaker 4: See, I told you it's a skill, you guys. You 1690 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:35,519 Speaker 4: guys this all the time. 1691 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:38,280 Speaker 2: You guys got a special when you when you live the. 1692 01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:40,280 Speaker 3: NBA life like Tony, you got to be able to 1693 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 3: see all. 1694 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1695 01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:43,240 Speaker 2: I guess it's probably bred into you. Honestly, After a 1696 01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,599 Speaker 2: few games, Tony's latest Dandiana Fever fought to the end 1697 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:49,040 Speaker 2: and they did it together. Next tube dot com, where 1698 01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:51,840 Speaker 2: you can find that great, great stuff from Tony. I 1699 01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:53,839 Speaker 2: do want to ask you about Tuesday Night just briefly. 1700 01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:57,720 Speaker 2: It was eerie watching it on TV. And I'm talking 1701 01:13:57,720 --> 01:14:01,080 Speaker 2: about the Kelsey Mitchell scene, the towels over, the stretcher out. 1702 01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:03,800 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie for a brief second there, I thought, 1703 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:07,160 Speaker 2: is this like a DeMar Hamlin situation? Like, what what's 1704 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:10,559 Speaker 2: going on? They went to commercial, which probably didn't help 1705 01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:14,719 Speaker 2: the situation of like the unknown, and if I remember correctly, 1706 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:16,920 Speaker 2: at the ESPN went to commercial pretty you know, quickly, 1707 01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:18,800 Speaker 2: right after the Hamlin thing. Once they knew something was 1708 01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:20,800 Speaker 2: super serious, they kind of got their ducks in order. 1709 01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:24,120 Speaker 2: Well what was it like in arena? 1710 01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:28,840 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's it was really bizarre because she was like, fine, 1711 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,759 Speaker 11: you know the play that had happened. She was involved 1712 01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:34,880 Speaker 11: kind of defending the action, and Aliah Boston committed her 1713 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,040 Speaker 11: fifth foul. So I wasn't even looking at Kelsey Mitchell, 1714 01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:40,240 Speaker 11: but she was like walking away from the play. And 1715 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,679 Speaker 11: then all of a sudden, someone's like who is that? 1716 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:43,720 Speaker 6: And I thought, who is that? 1717 01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:44,920 Speaker 11: What on the ground? 1718 01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:45,040 Speaker 6: What? 1719 01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:48,519 Speaker 11: And there's Kelsey Mitchell surrounded by a towels. I didn't 1720 01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 11: even know who the player was for much of the exchange, 1721 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 11: and so it was really kind of alarming and scary 1722 01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:57,920 Speaker 11: for a second because you don't know how that happens. 1723 01:14:57,920 --> 01:15:00,240 Speaker 11: And then you only get to see one replay and 1724 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,280 Speaker 11: she just kind of has her leg give out, like 1725 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:05,519 Speaker 11: to me, the I don't know if you guys remember 1726 01:15:05,560 --> 01:15:08,480 Speaker 11: this act, Like I kind of thought of Victor Oladipo 1727 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 11: when he just blew his leg out with his really 1728 01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 11: long injury, and I thought, oh, man, is this a quad? 1729 01:15:13,240 --> 01:15:17,679 Speaker 11: Is this whatever? But a very scary moment when that happened. 1730 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,759 Speaker 11: The towels are always alarming, and of course the stretcher 1731 01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:23,760 Speaker 11: Earlea Bustin's crying like in Arena. It was just so 1732 01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 11: shocking because I had no idea. What happened Like there 1733 01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 11: was no contact on the play, she wasn't running and 1734 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 11: something gave out. It just happened and a raft had 1735 01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 11: to kind of guide her to the ground. As we've 1736 01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:37,160 Speaker 11: seen today, it's like maybe a good scenario situation, but 1737 01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 11: also maybe not because what gets you to the issue 1738 01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:44,280 Speaker 11: that she had sometimes can be like also alarming or 1739 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:45,360 Speaker 11: maybe a sign of. 1740 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 6: An issue with your kidneys. 1741 01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:48,599 Speaker 11: But at least as of right now, if it's something 1742 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 11: like not super scary, maybe she could still keep playing 1743 01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:57,120 Speaker 11: pretty soon. So it's scary and alarming when it happened. 1744 01:15:57,280 --> 01:15:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know if anybody caught this. For 1745 01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:01,800 Speaker 1: as much grief as we've been given WNBA officials and 1746 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:04,040 Speaker 1: a lot of it earned this year. The official that 1747 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,639 Speaker 1: was standing next to Kelsey, she she kind of reached 1748 01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:11,519 Speaker 1: over and grabbed his arm. He immediately knew something was wrong. 1749 01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:13,719 Speaker 1: I give him a lot of credit because he very 1750 01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 1: carefully and gently kind of helped her lay down on 1751 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:18,639 Speaker 1: the ground. I don't know if you saw that, Tony, 1752 01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:21,280 Speaker 1: but I thought, you know, forget being a referee and 1753 01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:23,240 Speaker 1: a basketball player, he was just a human being at 1754 01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:23,960 Speaker 1: that point in time. 1755 01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:27,479 Speaker 11: Yeah, absolutely, you know, and I get you got to 1756 01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 11: give him credit to like have the wherewithals to know 1757 01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:33,639 Speaker 11: that a player is saying help specifically to you, right 1758 01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 11: and actually be involved in that moment and thinkfully the 1759 01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,639 Speaker 11: game was kind of at a stoppage or slow down point. 1760 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,559 Speaker 11: But yeah, that was just a scary, alarming sequence that. 1761 01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:45,639 Speaker 11: And then if you're a teammate, you know, you don't 1762 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 11: know what happened. The towels are out like veryerially similar 1763 01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 11: to the pacers in that you know, like you got 1764 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:55,439 Speaker 11: to keep playing. It's a huge game, but you just 1765 01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:57,720 Speaker 11: saw what happened to your teammate and they're muscled like. 1766 01:16:57,800 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 11: You got to find a way to fight through it somehow, 1767 01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:01,920 Speaker 11: And I think that was hard for everybody to do, 1768 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:03,800 Speaker 11: even if just for a few moments because they got 1769 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:05,759 Speaker 11: back into the game. Obviously they got up to overtime, 1770 01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:07,920 Speaker 11: but you know, if you have a bad two minutes 1771 01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 11: in a game like that, that's just it was really 1772 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:13,000 Speaker 11: crushing and it was sad for everybody. So just a 1773 01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,360 Speaker 11: huge bummer. And then Arena, it was even scarier because 1774 01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 11: we had no idea what happened or how it happened. 1775 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I believe Kelsey came online yesterday and revealed 1776 01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 4: that she had and I hope I say this correctly 1777 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:27,160 Speaker 4: rob dom eulosis rob domialysis. 1778 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:30,920 Speaker 3: Robbed domiallisis a dinosaur. I mean it sounds it pretty rough. 1779 01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,479 Speaker 4: And it says it's a condition when muscle cells break 1780 01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 4: down and release a protein into the bloodstream, which can 1781 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 4: be very bad for like your kidneys and the rest 1782 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,240 Speaker 4: of your body. And so just to give some added context, 1783 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:42,559 Speaker 4: they're like, yeah, it was severe cramping, but it wasn't 1784 01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,320 Speaker 4: just cramps, Like, it wasn't just okay, go get some 1785 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 4: water and you'll be fine, because I was thinking, oh, okay, 1786 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:49,040 Speaker 4: like did she not drink enough fluids throughout the day 1787 01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:51,439 Speaker 4: it was the you know, the vegas heat getting to 1788 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 4: her or something like that, but it was obviously more 1789 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:55,240 Speaker 4: than that.

I had to laugh at one 1880 01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:06,920 Speaker 2: of the clips of him in the locker room after 1881 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 2: the Bucks game, where he goes, wait, my dad got 1882 01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:12,000 Speaker 2: into it with Giannis. That was one of the clips 1883 01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 2: they put in the trailer. There's so many things we 1884 01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,040 Speaker 2: should just like maybe during the Colts bye week we 1885 01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:18,280 Speaker 2: should just go down Pacer memory lane from last season. 1886 01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 2: I guess we'll already be into the next season but 1887 01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:22,519 Speaker 2: I feel like there's so many things that I almost 1888 01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 2: forget about last year. But they had some really mark 1889 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:30,160 Speaker 2: I thought, some vivid imagery, vivid you know camera shots 1890 01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:32,680 Speaker 2: behind the scenes of him after the Achilles tear, you know, 1891 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:36,439 Speaker 2: talking behind you know, in the locker room. So I 1892 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 2: think it'll be a really well done But also you're 1893 01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 2: gonna see some sights and sounds that maybe you didn't 1894 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 2: necessarily want to see. 1895 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:45,719 Speaker 3: Can you imagine? 1896 01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:48,519 Speaker 5: I was just saying, can you imagine? Like two of 1897 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 5: the guys they highlighted for the season were Tyres and Sga, 1898 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:54,759 Speaker 5: and they both made it the final game of the season. 1899 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:56,599 Speaker 5: That has to be just fantastic content. 1900 01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, the teas they both had similar comments of long 1901 01:22:59,439 --> 01:23:01,160 Speaker 4: lines of life. If I get all the way to 1902 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:03,320 Speaker 4: Game seven then I lose, that would just be like 1903 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 4: the worst in the world, so devastating, and then we 1904 01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:08,320 Speaker 4: know how that story went. But it seems like it's 1905 01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:09,439 Speaker 4: gonna be a great watch. And I didn't have a 1906 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:12,160 Speaker 4: chance to see John Halliburden.

And I'll never forget the first 1958 01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:30,240 Speaker 2: interception he had of Andrew Luck at a training camp 1959 01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:32,679 Speaker 2: practice where I think Luck thought he had Eric Swope 1960 01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:35,440 Speaker 2: over the middle and it was just your average linebacker, 1961 01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, Darius Leonard went up in 1962 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:38,479 Speaker 2: the air to make that play and it was like, 1963 01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:43,120 Speaker 2: oh boy, this is a different cat playing linebacker. And 1964 01:25:43,200 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 2: he was defensive Rookie of the Year, all of those things. 1965 01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:49,479 Speaker 2: But this was Ziare Franklin sharing this story and to 1966 01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:52,240 Speaker 2: set the scene a little bit. First NFL road game 1967 01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:55,080 Speaker 2: for these two in the same draft class, Darius Leonard 1968 01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:59,240 Speaker 2: roommates in the hotel in Washington, d C. With Zire Franklin. 1969 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:03,639 Speaker 12: So, uh, proba think he's gonna kill me, but yeah, 1970 01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:05,679 Speaker 12: so uh yeah, we was uh roommates on the road. 1971 01:26:06,800 --> 01:26:09,240 Speaker 12: There was our second game, uh our rookie year, and 1972 01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:12,680 Speaker 12: uh I had the flu. I was sick, and uh, 1973 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:14,720 Speaker 12: I my wife would say, I already have a really 1974 01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 12: bad snoring problem, and uh Dylanna cooked the brunt of 1975 01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:21,640 Speaker 12: it uh that night and uh so bad that he 1976 01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:25,400 Speaker 12: actually had to sleep uh in the the tub in 1977 01:26:25,280 --> 01:26:28,479 Speaker 12: the in the bathroom for our hotel room. But then 1978 01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:31,080 Speaker 12: he woke up the next day when eighteen tackles uh 1979 01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 12: forced fumble and he said all kinds of records defensive 1980 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:35,680 Speaker 12: player of the week. So I told him he need 1981 01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 12: to sleep in a that that tub more often. So yeah, man, 1982 01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:41,439 Speaker 12: I mean I got a ton of stories that just 1983 01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:43,800 Speaker 12: so the different things that Dyland had done. And I 1984 01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:46,599 Speaker 12: mean he he was so superstitious. He uh he used 1985 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,560 Speaker 12: to wear the same shirt for like two years. He 1986 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:51,160 Speaker 12: used to wear the same shirt on meath his pass 1987 01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 12: and then one day before a game, he was like, see, 1988 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:54,360 Speaker 12: I can't find it, Like I don't know where my 1989 01:26:54,400 --> 01:26:56,280 Speaker 12: shirt is.

I'm just glad, 1992 01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:02,479 Speaker 12: Like I said, I'm just glad he's getting on at 1993 01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:03,960 Speaker 12: the flowers he deserved. 1994 01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:04,960 Speaker 6: We've had a lot of. 1995 01:27:04,920 --> 01:27:08,360 Speaker 12: Times, you know, some tough times and some some good times, 1996 01:27:08,360 --> 01:27:10,360 Speaker 12: and I'm just glad he's gonna get that celebration to 1997 01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:10,880 Speaker 12: hate Dener. 1998 01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:15,439 Speaker 1: So I have questions, KB. Are we talking standard tub 1999 01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:18,760 Speaker 1: like and everybody's everybody's house. Are we talk in one 2000 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:23,640 Speaker 1: of those luxury suites like four person hot tubs that 2001 01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:25,519 Speaker 1: he's trying to sleep in the night before a game. 2002 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:29,839 Speaker 2: I am laughing at this aspect to it, Darius Leonard 2003 01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:32,720 Speaker 2: had as an NFL player, You've got some clout, I 2004 01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:35,719 Speaker 2: think from the traveling party. I think there are menty 2005 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:39,200 Speaker 2: Colts employees traveling to road games that they would need 2006 01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:42,439 Speaker 2: to give up their room for one Daris Leonard if 2007 01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 2: he could not sleep the night before the game. I think, 2008 01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:48,000 Speaker 2: if you're the operations person in charge of the travel schedule, 2009 01:27:48,040 --> 01:27:50,200 Speaker 2: if you can't find another hotel room for him within 2010 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:52,720 Speaker 2: that hotel, I think you're going in the tub in 2011 01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:55,759 Speaker 2: Zire Franklin's room and Darius Leonard's taking over your bed 2012 01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:59,639 Speaker 2: the night before a game. That's crazy, I mean to say, 2013 01:27:59,840 --> 01:28:02,719 Speaker 2: is Franklin saying he's crazy? Yes, that is the perfect 2014 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:07,320 Speaker 2: way to describe him. Maniac right, absolute maniac and really 2015 01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:08,040 Speaker 2: looking forward to suthing. 2016 01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:09,760 Speaker 4: I mean I've told you the story. He was the 2017 01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:13,200 Speaker 4: first guy yelled at me after a game. And I 2018 01:28:13,240 --> 01:28:15,880 Speaker 4: remember running into his family at a Fever game and 2019 01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:17,360 Speaker 4: he saw me before I saw him. This was a 2020 01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:19,679 Speaker 4: couple of years ago. I think this was pre Caitlyn Clark. 2021 01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:23,679 Speaker 4: And yeah, I know because the media s he's actual 2022 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 4: on the floor back then. Times have changed certainly. And 2023 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:29,000 Speaker 4: I hear somebody call my name and I'm like, oh 2024 01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 4: my gosh, it's Shack Leonard. Oh, of all the players, 2025 01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:33,960 Speaker 4: I could see you. Oh, I'm so happy to see 2026 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:35,920 Speaker 4: you here. I was not happy to see him. So 2027 01:28:36,360 --> 01:28:38,400 Speaker 4: he waves me over and I go over to him 2028 01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 4: and his wife and his daughters. And I just turned 2029 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:42,920 Speaker 4: to his wife and I go, this guy yells at 2030 01:28:42,920 --> 01:28:46,000 Speaker 4: me all the time, And she just died laughing and 2031 01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:47,920 Speaker 4: she was like, you don't say And then he started 2032 01:28:47,960 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 4: laughing too because knew it was true. 2033 01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:51,280 Speaker 3: But I'll give him a lot of credit. 2034 01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:54,000 Speaker 4: For his intensity was and how you know, combat if 2035 01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:56,920 Speaker 4: he could be honestly with the media. It never really, 2036 01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 4: at least in my opinion, felt like it was like 2037 01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:01,160 Speaker 4: a personal thing, saying he will get mad at you 2038 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:05,840 Speaker 4: on Wednesday and then you know, talk to you one 2039 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:08,080 Speaker 4: on one on Thursday, like that's just how he was. 2040 01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 4: But I think one thing he already respected about the 2041 01:29:10,479 --> 01:29:12,559 Speaker 4: media and vice versa. The one thing I respected about 2042 01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:14,519 Speaker 4: him is you know, good, bad and different. He showed 2043 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:17,120 Speaker 4: up and he would face the music every single time. 2044 01:29:17,160 --> 01:29:18,760 Speaker 4: And I think a lot of athletes can learn from 2045 01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:21,040 Speaker 4: that because after a game, win or loss, you never 2046 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:23,960 Speaker 4: had to go find Shaq Leonard and have him speak 2047 01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,040 Speaker 4: for what happened. As a team captain, as one of 2048 01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:29,679 Speaker 4: the best guys on the team, he spoke after every game, win, lose, 2049 01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:32,440 Speaker 4: a draw, And that's something that I think is very commendable. 2050 01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:34,639 Speaker 1: All right, look for that coming up on Sunday as 2051 01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:36,759 Speaker 1: the Colts take on the Raiders. We'll talk more about 2052 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,320 Speaker 1: that game and put it all into perspective with Joel A. 2053 01:29:39,479 --> 01:29:41,519 Speaker 1: Erickson from The Indie Star. That's next ninety three to 2054 01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:44,559 Speaker 1: five and one on seven five to fan. Never have 2055 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:46,760 Speaker 1: to wait very long for an NFL game after a 2056 01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:49,320 Speaker 1: Monday night contest.

And so I am simply supporting Mark Dyton 2113 01:32:25,040 --> 01:32:30,519 Speaker 2: with a try not to suck Joe Madden glasses shirt 2114 01:32:30,760 --> 01:32:33,360 Speaker 2: and considering Kevin's track record of sports teams in the 2115 01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:35,519 Speaker 2: Year of Our Lord twenty twenty five with Notre Dame 2116 01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:41,040 Speaker 2: getting smoked in the National Championship, the yeah, that was 2117 01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:43,680 Speaker 2: not necessarily love for your cubs to be one of 2118 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:44,920 Speaker 2: those standing here. 2119 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:47,360 Speaker 5: We've got we've got speedo bets that have fallen flat 2120 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:49,840 Speaker 5: because every time Kevin puts his uh puts chips in 2121 01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,280 Speaker 5: on a team, they fall flat. So I'm a bit 2122 01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:53,040 Speaker 5: nervous today. 2123 01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:53,760 Speaker 2: Shut the hell up. 2124 01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:57,080 Speaker 6: This is a se' that's the that's the elimination game 2125 01:32:57,560 --> 01:33:00,000 Speaker 6: baseball playoff nerves coming out of Mark Dyton right there. 2126 01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:04,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so true. I know I'm not going to 2127 01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:06,439 Speaker 2: you know what, I'll be the bigger man, Joel. I'm 2128 01:33:06,439 --> 01:33:08,840 Speaker 2: not going to hold him to this standard. On October second, 2129 01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:11,080 Speaker 2: we'll just move on. 2130 01:33:11,320 --> 01:33:12,519 Speaker 3: Did you clone me or something? 2131 01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:14,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, this is totally what I would do, But man, 2132 01:33:14,400 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 4: you are on Troll a thousand right now. 2133 01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:21,160 Speaker 1: Essentially give Mark a pass by saying, hey, do you 2134 01:33:21,200 --> 01:33:22,559 Speaker 1: know what he's going through today? 2135 01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:26,360 Speaker 6: Baseball playoffs? For hell? 2136 01:33:26,560 --> 01:33:28,760 Speaker 2: I know, I trust me. There's part of me it's 2137 01:33:28,760 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 2: glad it's over. I never got to the stressful period. 2138 01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:33,479 Speaker 2: It was like, well, if that runner gets on and 2139 01:33:33,520 --> 01:33:35,640 Speaker 2: then that batter does this, and then maybe you can 2140 01:33:35,680 --> 01:33:38,080 Speaker 2: cut the deficit to three. And you know, I never 2141 01:33:38,120 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 2: got to the stress. 2142 01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:41,599 Speaker 5: Well, and if the Cubs do lose Joel A couple 2143 01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:43,400 Speaker 5: of training camps ago, I think Kevin wore one of 2144 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:45,599 Speaker 5: your Brewers shirts. He's gonna need that again because he's 2145 01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:47,160 Speaker 5: gonna jump on the Brewers bandwagon. 2146 01:33:48,160 --> 01:33:50,120 Speaker 2: I'm a little nervous if I could fit in that. 2147 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:53,040 Speaker 1: I want to nickname him Bernie for the for the 2148 01:33:53,080 --> 01:33:54,080 Speaker 1: remainder of the playoffs. 2149 01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:56,360 Speaker 2: If that happened, I was quite distressful a day for 2150 01:33:56,400 --> 01:33:58,800 Speaker 2: me rocking that shirt. Joel A. Rickson from the Star 2151 01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:00,960 Speaker 2: with to See on the Payless Locker hot line. I 2152 01:34:01,240 --> 01:34:03,679 Speaker 2: believe it's upcoming. We tweeted the or we at teaseid 2153 01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:07,160 Speaker 2: a little bit earlier. Joel, uh coming to any star 2154 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:09,640 Speaker 2: here in the next day or so? Could you let 2155 01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:12,920 Speaker 2: our audience in on where you consume the first half 2156 01:34:12,960 --> 01:34:18,519 Speaker 2: of Colts Rams on Sunday. Not because beer, it wasn't. 2157 01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:20,960 Speaker 6: It wasn't Colts Rams. I was. I was at so 2158 01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:22,320 Speaker 6: far for all of Colts Rams. 2159 01:34:22,160 --> 01:34:26,040 Speaker 2: But the early games, early games, sorry, the early games. 2160 01:34:26,120 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 6: I spent the early games at Fox Studios in Los 2161 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:34,000 Speaker 6: Angeles with Mike Pereira, who I think most fans know 2162 01:34:34,160 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 6: as the guy who explains what the refs are thinking 2163 01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:38,439 Speaker 6: and sometimes tells us when they're wrong. 2164 01:34:39,200 --> 01:34:39,320 Speaker 9: Uh. 2165 01:34:39,960 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 6: In in the command center at Fox Studios. It was 2166 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:45,920 Speaker 6: pretty cool. It was very very cool. Also, there's way 2167 01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:48,360 Speaker 6: more going on there than I ever realized. 2168 01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:50,280 Speaker 3: Can you elaborate? 2169 01:34:50,400 --> 01:34:55,120 Speaker 6: You look, so you see Pereira come on, you know, 2170 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:57,320 Speaker 6: once or twice a game. Maybe I know he was 2171 01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:00,960 Speaker 6: on in the Colts game the other day. Uh he is. 2172 01:35:01,439 --> 01:35:04,599 Speaker 6: They see every call in every game. Somehow, there's four 2173 01:35:04,680 --> 01:35:08,519 Speaker 6: guys in the command center. They are all kind of 2174 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:12,360 Speaker 6: going looking at all these different screens. There's one specifically 2175 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:17,040 Speaker 6: for Perira that they put big calls on. But then 2176 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:20,120 Speaker 6: there's also like eight screens to the sides of that 2177 01:35:20,240 --> 01:35:22,599 Speaker 6: where they can see the other games, and you would 2178 01:35:22,640 --> 01:35:24,960 Speaker 6: think they would miss stuff. They don't miss anything they see, 2179 01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 6: like holds in false starts being a tiny screen and 2180 01:35:28,120 --> 01:35:29,680 Speaker 6: you're not paying attention to it. And then the other 2181 01:35:29,800 --> 01:35:34,040 Speaker 6: thing I think that sticks out is just a lot 2182 01:35:34,120 --> 01:35:37,400 Speaker 6: of what Perera does, more of what Para does than 2183 01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:41,080 Speaker 6: coming on screen and telling us what happens, is he 2184 01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:44,080 Speaker 6: will reach forward and press a little button that goes 2185 01:35:44,120 --> 01:35:47,200 Speaker 6: to the producer to whichever city and just kind of 2186 01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:50,920 Speaker 6: say what the call is, Like you know, hey, that's 2187 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:52,960 Speaker 6: a hook and hold right there. That's why they called 2188 01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:56,400 Speaker 6: that pass interference or that hold. And then when you're 2189 01:35:56,439 --> 01:36:00,360 Speaker 6: watching a game and you hear a broadcaster say, give 2190 01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:02,559 Speaker 6: you an explanation of a rule, a lot of times 2191 01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:07,439 Speaker 6: that's Pereira talking through the producer. So it's it's way 2192 01:36:07,560 --> 01:36:09,679 Speaker 6: more involved than I ever thought. I had a headset 2193 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:11,519 Speaker 6: on for a little while listening to all the producers 2194 01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:13,200 Speaker 6: coming to the year. I don't know how you do 2195 01:36:13,320 --> 01:36:16,560 Speaker 6: that without going crazy. It was really cool. It was 2196 01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:17,600 Speaker 6: a really really neat thing to do. 2197 01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:20,479 Speaker 1: So how many, how many people are actually in that room, 2198 01:36:20,560 --> 01:36:23,680 Speaker 1: and what are the discussions like when they are kind 2199 01:36:23,720 --> 01:36:25,920 Speaker 1: of picking over a call there. 2200 01:36:26,439 --> 01:36:29,439 Speaker 6: Well, it's it's it's really fast. That's the first of all, 2201 01:36:29,479 --> 01:36:32,839 Speaker 6: there's four of them. There's Parreira, there's their rules analyst, 2202 01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:37,000 Speaker 6: and then there's two producers, and it has to be 2203 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:39,320 Speaker 6: really fast. Like one of the calls he was doing 2204 01:36:39,439 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 6: the uh he was serving as the rules analyst for 2205 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:44,360 Speaker 6: the europe game and it was right after I walked 2206 01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:48,880 Speaker 6: in and I timed it on my recorder. He the call. 2207 01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:51,320 Speaker 6: The play happened in a minute and fifty six seconds later. 2208 01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:55,000 Speaker 6: Parreira has to be on knowing exactly what he thinks 2209 01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:59,320 Speaker 6: about the call without having, you know, the sixteen camera 2210 01:36:59,400 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 6: angles that they in New York, they only have the 2211 01:37:01,439 --> 01:37:04,320 Speaker 6: live broadcast angle, so a lot of it is really 2212 01:37:04,439 --> 01:37:08,519 Speaker 6: fast where they're like one guy is suggesting, hey, did 2213 01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:09,680 Speaker 6: he get his feet in? And the other guy is 2214 01:37:09,720 --> 01:37:11,760 Speaker 6: saying did he bobble it? And then you have them 2215 01:37:11,840 --> 01:37:14,680 Speaker 6: Pereira answering that stuff along with the other rules a list, 2216 01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:16,599 Speaker 6: and then they're suggesting more stuff and then they're going, Okay, 2217 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:18,720 Speaker 6: we need a camera angle for this, Hey, we need 2218 01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:21,599 Speaker 6: Mike on Okay, we he got Mike. We've got Mike ready, 2219 01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:23,160 Speaker 6: but he hasn't seen the replay yet where he can 2220 01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:26,040 Speaker 6: see anything yet, So hold on, hold on, and then boom, 2221 01:37:26,120 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 6: he's on TV and then he's off, and then you're 2222 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:32,280 Speaker 6: going right back to the next game if it's a 2223 01:37:32,360 --> 01:37:34,599 Speaker 6: multi game situation. That's the other thing. I was only 2224 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:37,960 Speaker 6: there on a day when they had two Fox games 2225 01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:40,560 Speaker 6: in the early window. He said the week before that 2226 01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:43,640 Speaker 6: they had five Fox games in the early window. And 2227 01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:46,240 Speaker 6: he's helping all of those producers and all of that 2228 01:37:46,320 --> 01:37:48,439 Speaker 6: broadcast talent understand the rules all at once. 2229 01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:51,599 Speaker 4: So basically, Joel, all I'm hearing is that you didn't 2230 01:37:51,680 --> 01:37:53,479 Speaker 4: have the guts to walk in there and tell them, Hey, 2231 01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,280 Speaker 4: this call that ruined my team years ago. You should 2232 01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:58,640 Speaker 4: have been there to correct this, because I feel like 2233 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:01,240 Speaker 4: every fan in America would love the opportunity to tell him. 2234 01:38:01,160 --> 01:38:04,160 Speaker 3: You know what, bleep, bleep bleep a replay or whatever 2235 01:38:04,200 --> 01:38:06,280 Speaker 3: your interpretation of it was, that was a catcher. 2236 01:38:06,720 --> 01:38:09,720 Speaker 6: So well, the interesting thing is that the interesting thing 2237 01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:11,800 Speaker 6: is that Pereira knows the rule books so well that 2238 01:38:11,920 --> 01:38:14,600 Speaker 6: he a lot of times, if you're watching the broadcast, 2239 01:38:15,360 --> 01:38:18,320 Speaker 6: you kind of you'll hear and you'll see it. I mean, 2240 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:21,200 Speaker 6: I know, James, you've seen it con in Colts games. 2241 01:38:21,240 --> 01:38:24,479 Speaker 6: Were like they'll make a call and then a bunch 2242 01:38:24,520 --> 01:38:27,600 Speaker 6: of fans will say, hey, Mike Pereira or whoever. The 2243 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:29,679 Speaker 6: ref on the broadcast said that this was the wrong Paul. 2244 01:38:30,439 --> 01:38:34,639 Speaker 6: And that's interesting too, because yeah, some of their rules knowledge. 2245 01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:37,200 Speaker 6: Like hearing him and Steve Strimling talk to the rules 2246 01:38:37,800 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 6: as they're going was wild because they're like getting into 2247 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,280 Speaker 6: stuff that I never consider. And he said, you know, 2248 01:38:44,360 --> 01:38:46,240 Speaker 6: another big part of what they do is educating the 2249 01:38:46,280 --> 01:38:50,720 Speaker 6: broadcasters because they can't the broadcasters. James me, Kevin, we 2250 01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:54,599 Speaker 6: can't be expected to understand rules, he said. He said, 2251 01:38:54,600 --> 01:38:57,000 Speaker 6: you can't be expected to understand the rule book that 2252 01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:59,200 Speaker 6: I've been reading literally for decades. 2253 01:39:00,439 --> 01:39:02,240 Speaker 2: It's Joel a Ericson from the A and Apple Star 2254 01:39:02,360 --> 01:39:04,880 Speaker 2: that'll be up on The Star's website hopefully in the 2255 01:39:04,960 --> 01:39:07,280 Speaker 2: next day or so. Looking forward to that full piece. 2256 01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:09,559 Speaker 2: Joel get to work from Joel, Oh. 2257 01:39:09,479 --> 01:39:15,240 Speaker 6: No, no, it's it's done. Indiana sports scene will not quit.

I mean way, I was sitting there 2262 01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:27,800 Speaker 2: on a platter. Unlike the Reds, I'm not actually gonna 2263 01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:30,960 Speaker 2: hit the ball there. Speaking of uh Joel, let's start 2264 01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:34,200 Speaker 2: there with you know, I asked James Boyd this to 2265 01:39:34,320 --> 01:39:35,240 Speaker 2: lead off the show. 2266 01:39:35,840 --> 01:39:36,200 Speaker 6: I didn't. 2267 01:39:36,439 --> 01:39:38,560 Speaker 2: Of course, we didn't see how to practice yesterday. It 2268 01:39:38,680 --> 01:39:41,400 Speaker 2: was listed as a personal matter. I didn't catch him 2269 01:39:41,400 --> 01:39:43,519 Speaker 2: in the locker room either. You guys, did I think 2270 01:39:43,560 --> 01:39:45,640 Speaker 2: see him in the locker room after Sunday's game? Did 2271 01:39:45,680 --> 01:39:47,840 Speaker 2: you get I don't know, did you get any vibe 2272 01:39:47,880 --> 01:39:49,240 Speaker 2: that this was even a possibility? 2273 01:39:50,320 --> 01:39:55,519 Speaker 6: He so in after the Denver game. When we got 2274 01:39:55,600 --> 01:40:00,680 Speaker 6: him on the Monday after, I I thought that there 2275 01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:03,560 Speaker 6: was a difference in the interviews he did. He was 2276 01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:05,760 Speaker 6: a little bit hard to get. I think, you know, 2277 01:40:05,800 --> 01:40:07,920 Speaker 6: the colch cr staff did a really good job making 2278 01:40:07,960 --> 01:40:10,240 Speaker 6: sure he didn't, you know, kind of escape on us, 2279 01:40:12,400 --> 01:40:15,760 Speaker 6: want to talk to us. Yeah, and and you know 2280 01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:19,280 Speaker 6: he'd been betting Candid about his play and we kind 2281 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:20,920 Speaker 6: of had to pull it out of him a little 2282 01:40:20,920 --> 01:40:25,479 Speaker 6: bit on Sunday. So I don't know that I thought 2283 01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:29,680 Speaker 6: retirement was a possibility at this point, but I did 2284 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:32,640 Speaker 6: think I do think I got the vibe that like 2285 01:40:32,760 --> 01:40:34,240 Speaker 6: that one got to him a little bit more. 2286 01:40:36,040 --> 01:40:39,559 Speaker 4: And then when you look at their options at cornerback, Joel, 2287 01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:41,640 Speaker 4: where do you go from here? Because Examin Howard had 2288 01:40:41,680 --> 01:40:44,519 Speaker 4: been a starter throughout the first four games of this season, 2289 01:40:44,720 --> 01:40:47,400 Speaker 4: and so when you look at Makay Blackman, Jonathan Edwards, 2290 01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:50,960 Speaker 4: you know, Jaylen Jones could possibly return next week. How 2291 01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:53,719 Speaker 4: are you kind of ranking your pecking order in that regard? 2292 01:40:54,479 --> 01:40:56,880 Speaker 6: Well, this game, you know, anar Rouma likes to play 2293 01:40:56,920 --> 01:40:59,720 Speaker 6: the matchups, and this game against the Raiders, I think 2294 01:41:00,280 --> 01:41:02,519 Speaker 6: kind of sets up as a Mkai Blackman game because 2295 01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 6: the Raiders' number two receivers so far this year has 2296 01:41:06,200 --> 01:41:08,960 Speaker 6: been Trey Tucker, and he's he's a burner, He's a 2297 01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:11,599 Speaker 6: guy who's gonna beat That's what Mkayi Blackman has been, 2298 01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:16,080 Speaker 6: you know, essentially, that's the role he's been playing all season. 2299 01:41:16,160 --> 01:41:18,519 Speaker 6: So I kind of figure you'll get black men. We 2300 01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:20,960 Speaker 6: saw a lot of black men when when Ward missed 2301 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:23,599 Speaker 6: the second game of the season. I do think you'll 2302 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:26,840 Speaker 6: see a little bit more Jonathan Edwards, and he did 2303 01:41:26,920 --> 01:41:28,880 Speaker 6: have a pass breakup in his in his three snaps 2304 01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 6: he got the other day and it was a nice one. 2305 01:41:32,400 --> 01:41:35,000 Speaker 6: You know, he at some point you kind of have 2306 01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:36,800 Speaker 6: to do that. But really, I think the long term 2307 01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:40,840 Speaker 6: answer this season is get Jalen Jones fully healthy, get 2308 01:41:40,920 --> 01:41:43,040 Speaker 6: him in this defense, and give him a chance, because 2309 01:41:43,080 --> 01:41:45,479 Speaker 6: we've seen Jalen Jones play like a starting cornerback in 2310 01:41:45,479 --> 01:41:48,840 Speaker 6: the NFL, and as long as you can get that 2311 01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:51,000 Speaker 6: hamstring to the point where he can really play on it, 2312 01:41:51,680 --> 01:41:54,360 Speaker 6: I think that's that's probably that's the answer. That's the answer. 2313 01:41:54,400 --> 01:41:56,680 Speaker 6: We thought it was gonna be all season before some 2314 01:41:56,800 --> 01:41:59,000 Speaker 6: of the injuries kind of kind of messed with him. 2315 01:41:59,080 --> 01:42:01,360 Speaker 6: But I think that's the real answer for this team 2316 01:42:01,439 --> 01:42:03,640 Speaker 6: is your your best shot is probably Jamn Jones. 2317 01:42:03,720 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 1: Joy Eric's and the Indie Star joining us on the 2318 01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:08,400 Speaker 1: Payless Slickers hotline. What's your sense of what the wide 2319 01:42:08,439 --> 01:42:11,679 Speaker 1: receivers are going to look like when the official rosters 2320 01:42:11,720 --> 01:42:13,320 Speaker 1: are announced before the game on Sunday. 2321 01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:20,479 Speaker 6: You know, it is interesting that Shane Steiken said we'll 2322 01:42:20,479 --> 01:42:22,840 Speaker 6: see how the week goes, but asked about you know, 2323 01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:26,920 Speaker 6: Adie Mitchell's availability. I Alec Pierce being in a blue 2324 01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:29,719 Speaker 6: jersey yesterday is a good sign, and for him playing 2325 01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:32,120 Speaker 6: against the Raiders typically that means they're in the last 2326 01:42:32,160 --> 01:42:35,400 Speaker 6: step of the five steps of the concussion Protocol, which 2327 01:42:35,439 --> 01:42:37,680 Speaker 6: puts him in a spot where you're just waiting on 2328 01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:41,479 Speaker 6: an independent neurologist to evaluate. It's where Ward was two 2329 01:42:41,560 --> 01:42:44,200 Speaker 6: weeks ago and he ended up playing in that Titans game. 2330 01:42:44,320 --> 01:42:49,040 Speaker 6: So it probably looks good for Peers playing Ady Mitchell, 2331 01:42:49,040 --> 01:42:51,320 Speaker 6: I think is the real question mark, and it's it's 2332 01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:54,639 Speaker 6: It's just it's very interesting that Shane Stikein keeps saying, 2333 01:42:55,360 --> 01:42:57,719 Speaker 6: you know, we'll see how the week goes. In terms 2334 01:42:57,760 --> 01:43:00,320 Speaker 6: of Mitchell playing. If he does play, I don't I 2335 01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:02,720 Speaker 6: think you're it. Pierces back, You're back. He's back to 2336 01:43:02,800 --> 01:43:05,800 Speaker 6: like a ten to twelve snap roll at most. 2337 01:43:06,200 --> 01:43:07,400 Speaker 3: Would you sit him, Joel. 2338 01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:16,760 Speaker 6: Based on based on like what I think my end, 2339 01:43:16,960 --> 01:43:19,479 Speaker 6: like what I got from the coaches and players about 2340 01:43:19,880 --> 01:43:23,280 Speaker 6: how much they've emphasized this after the tailor mistake last year, 2341 01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:26,880 Speaker 6: I think probably yes, you have to, because I I 2342 01:43:27,400 --> 01:43:29,120 Speaker 6: don't know how you felt, James, but I got the 2343 01:43:29,160 --> 01:43:33,920 Speaker 6: impression in talking to Mitchell that like part of what 2344 01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:36,080 Speaker 6: he was going through was knowing that they've said this 2345 01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:38,040 Speaker 6: over and over again. I think when we asked the 2346 01:43:38,120 --> 01:43:42,040 Speaker 6: question about you know, is this something Shane's emphasized. I 2347 01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:44,200 Speaker 6: think before the question was even out, he was already saying, 2348 01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:46,719 Speaker 6: you know, letters and logos, letters and logos. 2349 01:43:47,200 --> 01:43:50,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely for those listening, letters and logos means that 2350 01:43:50,520 --> 01:43:53,000 Speaker 4: Shane was basically telling them to run through the end 2351 01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:56,160 Speaker 4: zone where the letters and logos of the team are painted. 2352 01:43:56,240 --> 01:43:57,400 Speaker 3: And so, yes, you are correct, Joel. 2353 01:43:57,400 --> 01:43:59,760 Speaker 4: When we were talking to a d we didn't even 2354 01:43:59,800 --> 01:44:02,360 Speaker 4: act that question before he mentioned it himself, which I 2355 01:44:02,400 --> 01:44:03,960 Speaker 4: had to follow up and say, what does that even mean? 2356 01:44:04,520 --> 01:44:07,920 Speaker 4: So along those lines, as we pivot away from Xavin 2357 01:44:07,960 --> 01:44:11,640 Speaker 4: Howard and Adie Mitchell in this conversation, how would you 2358 01:44:11,680 --> 01:44:13,880 Speaker 4: assess Daniel Jones? I know you've been over all over this, 2359 01:44:14,040 --> 01:44:16,360 Speaker 4: I think this week trying of asking him and the coach, 2360 01:44:16,760 --> 01:44:18,920 Speaker 4: you know what went into your turnovers? 2361 01:44:18,960 --> 01:44:20,240 Speaker 3: How do you bounce back from him? 2362 01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:22,640 Speaker 4: How would you assess his performance and then perhaps the 2363 01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:24,439 Speaker 4: ability to bounce back against the Raiders. 2364 01:44:25,560 --> 01:44:29,360 Speaker 6: I think part of it is just I think I 2365 01:44:29,439 --> 01:44:32,240 Speaker 6: think part of it is just they've got to do 2366 01:44:32,320 --> 01:44:34,599 Speaker 6: a better job protecting him. He's done a good job 2367 01:44:34,720 --> 01:44:36,720 Speaker 6: under pressure this year, but I do think that when 2368 01:44:37,200 --> 01:44:40,080 Speaker 6: the pressure is as consistent as it was on Sunday, 2369 01:44:40,120 --> 01:44:42,640 Speaker 6: it speeds a quarterback up or or makes them a 2370 01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:45,720 Speaker 6: little bit uncertain. I think the other thing, And no 2371 01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:47,600 Speaker 6: one has said this. This is just kind of me 2372 01:44:47,720 --> 01:44:50,360 Speaker 6: watching him over the course of the season. If he's 2373 01:44:50,360 --> 01:44:51,800 Speaker 6: going to throw the deep ball, it has to get 2374 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:56,040 Speaker 6: out early. It can't be it can't be a later 2375 01:44:56,160 --> 01:44:58,880 Speaker 6: ball in the in the in the progression he's he's 2376 01:44:58,920 --> 01:45:01,599 Speaker 6: got to get it out early so the receiver can 2377 01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:04,479 Speaker 6: go under it. I thought, you know, I thought that 2378 01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:08,479 Speaker 6: that Mitchell throw was open when he you know, when 2379 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:11,560 Speaker 6: he when he let it go. But he doesn't necessarily 2380 01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:13,840 Speaker 6: have the It doesn't seem like he has the arms 2381 01:45:13,840 --> 01:45:16,240 Speaker 6: strength to drive it. It's where it needs to go. 2382 01:45:16,400 --> 01:45:19,720 Speaker 6: So I think you can be successful throwing the ball 2383 01:45:19,800 --> 01:45:21,320 Speaker 6: down the field doing that. You just have to get 2384 01:45:21,360 --> 01:45:23,440 Speaker 6: it out early. And when we've seen him be successful 2385 01:45:24,080 --> 01:45:25,840 Speaker 6: getting the ball down the field, it's usually when he 2386 01:45:25,920 --> 01:45:27,519 Speaker 6: knows where he's going with it and lets it go 2387 01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:30,200 Speaker 6: early in the route and then lets the receiver run 2388 01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:32,639 Speaker 6: under it and make a play on the ball. That's 2389 01:45:32,680 --> 01:45:35,639 Speaker 6: where you know, Alec Pierce helps a ton because Pierce 2390 01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:38,160 Speaker 6: is so good when the ball's in the air at 2391 01:45:38,240 --> 01:45:41,040 Speaker 6: aggressively attacking it and going to get to the football. Joe. 2392 01:45:41,120 --> 01:45:42,920 Speaker 1: I know we've kept before a while today and we 2393 01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:46,080 Speaker 1: appreciate that. But before we go, I'd be remiss if 2394 01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:49,880 Speaker 1: I didn't say, ask you from your perspective, what should 2395 01:45:49,920 --> 01:45:52,720 Speaker 1: we know and be talking about with Shaq Leonard and 2396 01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:55,240 Speaker 1: the announcement of his retirement and him banging the anvil 2397 01:45:55,280 --> 01:45:55,759 Speaker 1: this Sunday. 2398 01:45:56,640 --> 01:45:59,040 Speaker 6: So I don't know how you. I don't know the 2399 01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:01,679 Speaker 6: reception you guys have, And I think on on social 2400 01:46:01,760 --> 01:46:06,719 Speaker 6: media you get a little bit of oddly, a little 2401 01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:09,400 Speaker 6: bit of some stuff where people are like, why is 2402 01:46:09,439 --> 01:46:12,479 Speaker 6: this a big deal? He was he was on the 2403 01:46:12,479 --> 01:46:14,479 Speaker 6: way to being in the Hall of Fame, like he 2404 01:46:14,720 --> 01:46:17,640 Speaker 6: was an incredible player. I think the only to me, 2405 01:46:18,200 --> 01:46:20,880 Speaker 6: Shack Leonard is an ultimate what if type of story, 2406 01:46:20,960 --> 01:46:24,439 Speaker 6: like what if he'd been healthy his whole career because 2407 01:46:24,439 --> 01:46:27,040 Speaker 6: even in twenty twenty one, you know, he forced a 2408 01:46:27,080 --> 01:46:29,960 Speaker 6: bunch of turnovers. But that was the start of him 2409 01:46:30,280 --> 01:46:32,360 Speaker 6: realizing that there was something wrong with a nerve in 2410 01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:34,240 Speaker 6: his back. At the time, I thought it was his leg, 2411 01:46:34,840 --> 01:46:37,080 Speaker 6: but that was the start of the injury. Was that season. 2412 01:46:37,120 --> 01:46:39,639 Speaker 6: I remember we had interviews with him where he said, 2413 01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:42,599 Speaker 6: I can't react the way I used to. I want 2414 01:46:42,680 --> 01:46:45,479 Speaker 6: to explode and my leg isn't doing it. So really, 2415 01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:48,640 Speaker 6: you do. You only got four years, and really it 2416 01:46:48,760 --> 01:46:51,280 Speaker 6: was three years of healthy Leonard, And I think, I 2417 01:46:51,439 --> 01:46:53,760 Speaker 6: think that's that's to me if he goes down as 2418 01:46:53,880 --> 01:46:56,360 Speaker 6: and you know, this franchise, like like a lot of 2419 01:46:56,400 --> 01:46:59,760 Speaker 6: franchise has a lot of these types of players. But 2420 01:47:00,200 --> 01:47:01,800 Speaker 6: to me, that's that's how I look at him, is 2421 01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:04,240 Speaker 6: what if he hadn't gotten hurt, what if he hadn't 2422 01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:07,320 Speaker 6: had a spinal injury? Because he was really, really good 2423 01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:11,080 Speaker 6: and really really unique as a player when he was 2424 01:47:11,240 --> 01:47:14,360 Speaker 6: when he was playing people people don't realize this, I 2425 01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:18,680 Speaker 6: don't think, but statistically speaking, turnovers are not something that 2426 01:47:18,800 --> 01:47:21,320 Speaker 6: are replicated easily a year over year. They're just not 2427 01:47:21,920 --> 01:47:23,599 Speaker 6: There's a few guys in the history of the NFL 2428 01:47:23,640 --> 01:47:26,519 Speaker 6: who've been able to make them consistent, and he's one 2429 01:47:26,600 --> 01:47:26,800 Speaker 6: of them. 2430 01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:30,959 Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us. Good luck in the baseball playoffs 2431 01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:32,200 Speaker 1: this weekend. We'll see how things go. 2432 01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:34,559 Speaker 2: We have four of fifty five brewers. 2433 01:47:35,040 --> 01:47:35,519 Speaker 1: That's impes. 2434 01:47:36,320 --> 01:47:37,960 Speaker 2: You couldn't get the guy with a big Beard. 2435 01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:41,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, Drew Avens, Drew Avens gonna haunt me. 2436 01:47:42,200 --> 01:47:43,000 Speaker 1: Have a good one, y'all. 2437 01:47:43,080 --> 01:47:43,360 Speaker 6: Thanks. 2438 01:47:44,040 --> 01:47:47,080 Speaker 1: Well, there you go.

They'll 2523 01:51:01,200 --> 01:51:03,840 Speaker 1: be at home against the Las Vegas Raiders. That one 2524 01:51:03,960 --> 01:51:06,720 Speaker 1: kicks off at one o'clock airtime on the Drive to 2525 01:51:06,960 --> 01:51:10,000 Speaker 1: Kick Off with JMV from the Bullseye Event Center starts 2526 01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:12,320 Speaker 1: at nine. Then we'll have the pregame for you and 2527 01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:16,639 Speaker 1: then the game itself. And what's the injury situation looking 2528 01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:19,560 Speaker 1: like as we sit here Thursday morning, Kevin Bowen. 2529 01:51:19,320 --> 01:51:21,640 Speaker 2: Well, good news on Alic Pierce, Good news on MATC Gonsalvez. 2530 01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:23,360 Speaker 2: We talked about this a little bit earlier in the 2531 01:51:23,400 --> 01:51:27,759 Speaker 2: show Pierce Blue Jersey full participation yesterday. Gonzalvez was limited. 2532 01:51:27,800 --> 01:51:30,280 Speaker 2: But anytime you practice on a Wednesday, you typically have 2533 01:51:30,360 --> 01:51:32,439 Speaker 2: a good shot to play that Sunday. And if that 2534 01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:35,680 Speaker 2: is indeed the case, your starting offense will then have 2535 01:51:35,800 --> 01:51:38,720 Speaker 2: been together for four of the first five games, which 2536 01:51:39,320 --> 01:51:43,880 Speaker 2: you know, that's that's pretty rare defensively, still know Kennymore. 2537 01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:47,080 Speaker 2: I think the expectation was multi week injury for him 2538 01:51:47,160 --> 01:51:49,400 Speaker 2: there as I have Franklin. That's kind of a rare 2539 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:52,240 Speaker 2: miss of a Wednesday, and he was out with an ankle, 2540 01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:54,840 Speaker 2: which again he had offseason surgery on the ankle. Now 2541 01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:57,360 Speaker 2: no boot or anything. He was watching practice, So I 2542 01:51:57,400 --> 01:52:00,479 Speaker 2: don't think two too alarming, but still just something to 2543 01:52:00,600 --> 01:52:01,920 Speaker 2: keep it on all right, And there. 2544 01:52:01,880 --> 01:52:03,880 Speaker 1: Was news of retirement ches today. We've been talking about 2545 01:52:03,880 --> 01:52:06,679 Speaker 1: it with Joel A. Ericsson. First of all, Xavian Howard 2546 01:52:07,160 --> 01:52:08,760 Speaker 1: took all the suspense out of what are they going 2547 01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:11,799 Speaker 1: to do with cornerback? As badly as he's been roasted 2548 01:52:11,840 --> 01:52:13,600 Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks, he just took care of 2549 01:52:13,640 --> 01:52:14,400 Speaker 1: the problem himself. 2550 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:18,040 Speaker 3: James Boyd Yep walked away from football, said that was it. 2551 01:52:18,160 --> 01:52:20,560 Speaker 4: Put out a statement saying he had gotten used to 2552 01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:23,160 Speaker 4: spending more time with his kids last year when he 2553 01:52:23,240 --> 01:52:23,920 Speaker 4: was out of the NFL. 2554 01:52:24,120 --> 01:52:25,280 Speaker 3: Wants to get back to that. 2555 01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:28,360 Speaker 4: But I would be lying to myself if I did 2556 01:52:28,400 --> 01:52:30,360 Speaker 4: not think that part of the reason he made this 2557 01:52:30,439 --> 01:52:34,360 Speaker 4: decision right now as opposed to before the season started 2558 01:52:34,479 --> 01:52:37,760 Speaker 4: or later on, was because how poorly he played through 2559 01:52:37,800 --> 01:52:39,080 Speaker 4: his first four games with the Colts. 2560 01:52:39,520 --> 01:52:42,200 Speaker 1: That was pretty forgettable, and especially for a guy that 2561 01:52:42,320 --> 01:52:45,160 Speaker 1: for the bulk of his career was an excellent football player. 2562 01:52:45,240 --> 01:52:47,599 Speaker 1: Not really not good, he was an excellent football Yeah. 2563 01:52:47,479 --> 01:52:50,439 Speaker 4: Two time All Pro, four time Pro Bowler, and I 2564 01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:54,320 Speaker 4: believe since he entered the NFL in twenty sixteen, he 2565 01:52:54,400 --> 01:52:57,920 Speaker 4: has a second most interceptions during that span with twenty nine. 2566 01:52:58,040 --> 01:53:01,559 Speaker 4: So a guy with the league and innse big plays, 2567 01:53:01,920 --> 01:53:04,280 Speaker 4: he just wasn't there anymore for him. And I think 2568 01:53:04,320 --> 01:53:06,559 Speaker 4: that was very clear this past Sunday against the Rams. 2569 01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:08,720 Speaker 1: And also we spoke about this with Joel a Erics 2570 01:53:08,800 --> 01:53:12,360 Speaker 1: in a moment ago. Kevin retirement for officially now Shack 2571 01:53:12,439 --> 01:53:14,320 Speaker 1: Leonard and he'll be honored on Sunday. 2572 01:53:14,439 --> 01:53:16,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, part of the festivities on Sunday, And now I 2573 01:53:16,479 --> 01:53:18,240 Speaker 2: find it fitting. Although you can probably say this for 2574 01:53:18,360 --> 01:53:20,320 Speaker 2: a lot of teams, with Shack Leonard, I feel like 2575 01:53:20,400 --> 01:53:23,040 Speaker 2: he iced a Raiders game at some point in his 2576 01:53:23,160 --> 01:53:26,240 Speaker 2: career with a huge fourth quarter turnover. So yes, he 2577 01:53:26,320 --> 01:53:28,840 Speaker 2: will be banging the anvil Sunday pregame and then he 2578 01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:31,640 Speaker 2: will be honored at halftime speaking to the crowd. And 2579 01:53:32,040 --> 01:53:33,880 Speaker 2: I've said this all morning long. But I just I 2580 01:53:33,920 --> 01:53:36,920 Speaker 2: think it's cool. You know, not everybody can or needs 2581 01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:39,000 Speaker 2: to go into the Ring of Honor. But also at 2582 01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:42,400 Speaker 2: the same time, players like Shack Lendar deserve to be celebrated. 2583 01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:45,400 Speaker 2: And you know, look at the Xaviing Howard thing. You know, 2584 01:53:45,920 --> 01:53:49,520 Speaker 2: there can be awkward endings to guys' careers. Not everybody 2585 01:53:49,600 --> 01:53:51,599 Speaker 2: can just right off into the sunset with the team 2586 01:53:51,680 --> 01:53:54,439 Speaker 2: that they played for their entire careers. The Leonard thing 2587 01:53:54,640 --> 01:53:57,560 Speaker 2: ended awkwardly mid season, and so for him to have 2588 01:53:57,720 --> 01:53:59,840 Speaker 2: this moment, I think it's pretty cool. 2589 01:54:00,080 --> 01:54:01,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know if it's been if he 2590 01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:04,320 Speaker 1: had a long enough coach's career to be in the 2591 01:54:04,439 --> 01:54:06,599 Speaker 1: Ring of Honor, and so I don't know if that's 2592 01:54:06,600 --> 01:54:08,200 Speaker 1: going to happen, but if it did, I'll be honest 2593 01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:10,679 Speaker 1: with that, I wouldn't be mad if it happened. Something 2594 01:54:10,680 --> 01:54:11,479 Speaker 1: that wouldn't bother me. 2595 01:54:11,880 --> 01:54:16,200 Speaker 4: My only gripe with the Ring of Honor, because I'm 2596 01:54:16,320 --> 01:54:19,719 Speaker 4: I'm in any argument, any league, any sport. 2597 01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:22,000 Speaker 3: I'm usually like a peak guy. What was your peak 2598 01:54:22,040 --> 01:54:22,800 Speaker 3: and how long it was? 2599 01:54:22,880 --> 01:54:25,120 Speaker 4: It was kind of short for a shock, but I mean, 2600 01:54:25,240 --> 01:54:28,200 Speaker 4: how many players in franchise history were three times first 2601 01:54:28,200 --> 01:54:31,479 Speaker 4: team All Pro. It probably wasn't many. And so I 2602 01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:34,880 Speaker 4: say that knowing that Jim Harball is in the Ring 2603 01:54:34,960 --> 01:54:37,480 Speaker 4: of Honor.

You hate rooting for punts, 2768 02:02:35,400 --> 02:02:37,400 Speaker 14: but I think under is to play on this one 2769 02:02:37,680 --> 02:02:40,320 Speaker 14: short week injuries, go under forty five. 2770 02:02:40,640 --> 02:02:41,040 Speaker 6: I like that. 2771 02:02:41,280 --> 02:02:43,120 Speaker 1: I like that a lot for all the reasons you said, 2772 02:02:43,120 --> 02:02:45,440 Speaker 1: And I'm just really worried about how many points the 2773 02:02:45,560 --> 02:02:49,520 Speaker 1: Niners can score ri this game tonight as much as anything. 2774 02:02:49,480 --> 02:02:52,520 Speaker 14: And the Rams as much as Stafford passes for big yardage. 2775 02:02:52,520 --> 02:02:55,600 Speaker 14: And you see Nikua have these video game like numbers. 2776 02:02:56,040 --> 02:02:58,320 Speaker 14: It's not like they're putting forty on the board either, 2777 02:02:58,800 --> 02:03:00,839 Speaker 14: like they get down the field, but sometimes they struggle 2778 02:03:00,880 --> 02:03:03,080 Speaker 14: in the red zone. So our prop bets we're going 2779 02:03:03,120 --> 02:03:07,080 Speaker 14: to do tonight. We're going to look at Christian McCaffrey 2780 02:03:07,120 --> 02:03:09,600 Speaker 14: for the forty nine ers. Somebody is going to have 2781 02:03:09,720 --> 02:03:12,080 Speaker 14: to touch the football for the forty nine ers, it's 2782 02:03:12,200 --> 02:03:15,800 Speaker 14: probably McCaffrey. We're going to go over fifty four and 2783 02:03:15,840 --> 02:03:19,720 Speaker 14: a half receiving yards for McCaffrey tonight. If you look 2784 02:03:19,720 --> 02:03:24,040 Speaker 14: at his targets in every game, just targets ten, seven, fifteen, 2785 02:03:24,240 --> 02:03:28,840 Speaker 14: and eleven, and his yardage every game seventy three, fifty two, 2786 02:03:29,160 --> 02:03:32,560 Speaker 14: eighty eight and ninety two receiving yards. So we're going 2787 02:03:32,640 --> 02:03:35,560 Speaker 14: to take that over tonight. Whether it's Purty, whether it's 2788 02:03:35,600 --> 02:03:38,520 Speaker 14: mac Jones, I can't see them doing anything but dnking 2789 02:03:38,600 --> 02:03:39,040 Speaker 14: and dunking. 2790 02:03:39,400 --> 02:03:40,800 Speaker 1: So let's ride out McCaffrey. 2791 02:03:41,120 --> 02:03:42,920 Speaker 14: And if you want some plus money, if you want 2792 02:03:42,920 --> 02:03:47,400 Speaker 14: to get a little nuts tonight, Davante Adams anytime touchdown 2793 02:03:47,600 --> 02:03:50,240 Speaker 14: for the rams. You can get that around plus one 2794 02:03:50,360 --> 02:03:53,720 Speaker 14: twenty five. It's not huge, but it's plus plus money. 2795 02:03:54,720 --> 02:03:58,200 Speaker 14: Nine red zone targets so far leads the NFL in 2796 02:03:58,360 --> 02:04:01,400 Speaker 14: red zone targets. Does leading catches in the red zone, 2797 02:04:01,520 --> 02:04:03,600 Speaker 14: but they're looking for him in the red zone. That's 2798 02:04:03,640 --> 02:04:05,120 Speaker 14: all I'm asking for it plus money. 2799 02:04:05,320 --> 02:04:08,200 Speaker 1: All right, that's where we're at, and what the let's 2800 02:04:08,280 --> 02:04:10,600 Speaker 1: let's go into the little gifts that you gave us. 2801 02:04:10,680 --> 02:04:16,080 Speaker 1: Here it's all smoky like mini bell jar full of 2802 02:04:16,600 --> 02:04:21,240 Speaker 1: I'm guessing spirits, white lightning. Yeah, commercial shine. 2803 02:04:21,520 --> 02:04:23,960 Speaker 14: Now when I say shine, like the purists get all upset, 2804 02:04:24,120 --> 02:04:26,600 Speaker 14: it's not really shine unless some hillbillion a mountain makes 2805 02:04:26,680 --> 02:04:28,720 Speaker 14: it and then passes it to you in an unmarked jar. 2806 02:04:29,320 --> 02:04:33,520 Speaker 14: But the best you can get store bought, probably old smoky.

And 2936 02:09:56,400 --> 02:09:57,920 Speaker 1: I looked at him and I said, what am I 2937 02:09:57,960 --> 02:09:59,840 Speaker 1: supposed to tell him? What am I going to tell 2938 02:10:00,000 --> 02:10:02,240 Speaker 1: At a clause, the kid looked at me, without missing 2939 02:10:02,280 --> 02:10:05,000 Speaker 1: a beat, right in the eyes and said, pointing at me, 2940 02:10:05,440 --> 02:10:10,080 Speaker 1: don't tell him anything, in that exact tone. We're off 2941 02:10:10,120 --> 02:10:10,920 Speaker 1: and running one. 2942 02:10:10,920 --> 02:10:14,280 Speaker 2: Colts News item before we exit here. On this Thursday morning, 2943 02:10:14,960 --> 02:10:16,920 Speaker 2: we did see an addition to the practice squad as 2944 02:10:17,000 --> 02:10:20,080 Speaker 2: a corner. So when Xaving Howard retired and that announcement 2945 02:10:20,120 --> 02:10:23,720 Speaker 2: happened yesterday. The Colts filled that roster spot by promoting 2946 02:10:23,800 --> 02:10:27,360 Speaker 2: a safety Trey Washington, who spent the entire offseason with them. 2947 02:10:27,400 --> 02:10:30,120 Speaker 2: Undrafted free agent safety Daniel Scott, one of their depth 2948 02:10:30,200 --> 02:10:34,560 Speaker 2: safety guys, was hurt yesterday. So for those curious, are 2949 02:10:34,600 --> 02:10:36,640 Speaker 2: they going to add a corner Stefan Gilmour this and 2950 02:10:36,760 --> 02:10:39,440 Speaker 2: that for this week, it's in house guys again. They 2951 02:10:39,480 --> 02:10:42,280 Speaker 2: added an undrafted corner to the practice squad, so can't 2952 02:10:42,320 --> 02:10:46,200 Speaker 2: imagine he will impact coming up on Sunday. So you 2953 02:10:46,320 --> 02:10:49,080 Speaker 2: will be looking at a corner group, likely without Kenny 2954 02:10:49,160 --> 02:10:52,680 Speaker 2: Moore the second assuming he doesn't practice today, that doesn't 2955 02:10:52,720 --> 02:10:56,280 Speaker 2: have Xaving Howard, so it'll be a very patchwork group. 2956 02:10:56,360 --> 02:10:58,080 Speaker 2: And as James putting out earlier in the show, we're 2957 02:10:58,080 --> 02:10:59,920 Speaker 2: still a week away from Jalen Jones. That's a round 2958 02:11:00,080 --> 02:11:03,000 Speaker 2: I would go in the future. Whenever Jalen Jones is healthy, 2959 02:11:03,240 --> 02:11:05,680 Speaker 2: I'd like to see him back from starting lineup back, 2960 02:11:05,800 --> 02:11:09,280 Speaker 2: trying to offer a little bit of stability to that position. 2961 02:11:09,320 --> 02:11:10,640 Speaker 2: I think he's earned that. I know in lou An 2962 02:11:10,760 --> 02:11:13,080 Speaker 2: Rumo's eyes, it wasn't going great for him this offseason, 2963 02:11:13,400 --> 02:11:14,040 Speaker 2: but that's what I would. 2964 02:11:14,120 --> 02:11:15,960 Speaker 4: I'll probably have to tell Lou, hey, by the way, 2965 02:11:16,080 --> 02:11:18,480 Speaker 4: the last guy you chose literally walked away from the 2966 02:11:18,520 --> 02:11:21,240 Speaker 4: game of football. So maybe I'll make a decision here 2967 02:11:21,240 --> 02:11:24,000 Speaker 4: from shan staking and say you start him, and I 2968 02:11:24,120 --> 02:11:25,840 Speaker 4: think lou will be on board with that, considering the 2969 02:11:25,880 --> 02:11:29,320 Speaker 4: experience that Jalen Jones has over the other guys in 2970 02:11:29,400 --> 02:11:29,760 Speaker 4: that room. 2971 02:11:30,040 --> 02:11:32,920 Speaker 1: Well find out what happens today Colts Camp the Fever 2972 02:11:33,080 --> 02:11:35,640 Speaker 1: with their exit interviews today.
