I actually have a question for you, Gene. 349 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 4: I'm sure that you guys have probably already talked about it, 350 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 4: but I did not hear your answer. I was I 351 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 4: was watching the Raven Steelers game and don't knock over 352 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 4: that lately. Have you guys discussed this guys, now, you 353 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 4: know what. 354 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought it up. 355 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 2: We haven't talked about it at all, and now's a 356 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 2: good time to do that. I guess we Actually we 357 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: did discuss it quite a bit, but the general consensus 358 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 2: on that PF t and Gene correct me if I'm wrong. 359 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: Is that it was called correctly. But it's a terrible rule. 360 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 5: It's just that people, I don't know what play you're 361 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 5: talking about. I'm trying to rewind back and remember what 362 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 5: the play was, but no, listen, I mean it's it 363 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 5: is that play where where what we all see one 364 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 5: hundred people in the bar are looking going, dude, it's 365 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 5: a catch, right, But then we have to live by 366 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 5: this defian rule, letter by letter of what becomes a 367 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 5: catch and when the process finishes and the catch actually 368 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 5: is finalized, and every once in a while through the 369 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 5: course of these years, those certain plays show up and 370 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 5: uh and the likely play to me was another one 371 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 5: of those perfect storms. So you know, we're we're always 372 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 5: going to dislike that piece of the rule, like the 373 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 5: third element of what is a catch, because it just 374 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 5: has too many layers of subjectivity to it right where 375 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 5: it just doesn't meet the eye tests sometimes. But we've 376 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 5: got to find somewhere to draw the line and say 377 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 5: this is a yes and this. 378 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 4: Is a no. Yeah. It almost becomes philosophical at some 379 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 4: point where you're like, is continuing to extend the ball 380 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 4: because that does that count as an act in and 381 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 4: of itself a separate act if you're making the effort 382 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 4: to continue to keep the ball away. 383 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 384 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 5: I think it's a great question, right, because he initially 385 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 5: possessed that football with arms fully extended, so he didn't 386 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 5: have any further out that he could reach without dislocating 387 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 5: his shoulder. 388 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: Right, And he's not going to pull the ball back 389 00:15:55,760 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: in because no football there. 390 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, listen, I don't know his arm went 391 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 5: an extra seven inches. 392 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: I'm giving it to it, you know. Can we get 393 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: someone out here and put it back in? But yeah? 394 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 5: No, And and I think that's where again what you 395 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 5: just said, pft, Really I think is that element, right, So, 396 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 5: because he possesses it with arms fully extended and can't 397 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 5: make really a football move, now it becomes a time 398 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 5: thing like Okay, how long did he have the ball 399 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 5: that way? And then we come into that framing thing 400 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 5: where it seems like a light year on one set, 401 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 5: and then you run it in real time and go, dude, 402 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 5: that's not that long. But then if I slow it down, 403 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 5: it's like, oh man, he had the ball for six seconds. 404 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 4: So yeah, there's a play. In New Orleans, a couple 405 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 4: of years ago where it was the Bears and the Saints, 406 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 4: and I remember the tight end made a touchdown catch 407 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,479 Speaker 4: and got his knee dislocated and held on to the football. 408 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 4: It was it was ruled I think, not a catch, 409 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 4: not a touchdown. He had to end up like in 410 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 4: one of the hospitals thing overnight. That should have counted 411 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 4: as a football act. Sure, if you're able to make 412 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 4: the catch and then your knee pops out of place 413 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 4: and you have possession of the football, to me that 414 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 4: that that is uh, just give it, Just give. 415 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 11: It like that. 416 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 2: You only need one foot in with a grievous injury. 417 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: Right right, surviving the ground, easy. 418 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 5: Ground, But did you survive your fur cracking and half 419 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 5: like the wishbone and the darky. 420 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 4: I think we should actually have one hundred drunk guys 421 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 4: in a bar that are on standby at all time, 422 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 4: so if there's a questionable catch, you just go to 423 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 4: them like they're their replay assists, and you just put 424 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 4: a buzzer in front of them and they can say 425 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 4: yes or no, is that a catch? And whatever. The 426 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 4: majority of those hundred drunk guys that we we breathalyze everybody, 427 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 4: they're all above a point away, and of them say, yes, 428 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 4: it's a catch. We go with that. 429 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: I like it. Why not? 430 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 2: I have to ask you, are you really in support 431 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 2: of James Madison? Are you really eating duck every day 432 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 2: until the James Madison Oregon game. 433 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 4: I love duck. Duck is my favorite meat in the 434 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 4: entire world. So yeah, it's not really. I'm not acting 435 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 4: like this is some big sacrifice. It's a it's a 436 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 4: labor of love. I started yesterday. I ate duck gumbo, 437 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 4: which was delicious, and I was cruising through grub Hub 438 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 4: and Seamless and all the apps trying to see how 439 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 4: many different stuff me searching searching duck. I just typed 440 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 4: in duck and my auto correct is like, are you 441 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 4: sure you. 442 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: Raised different app? Yeah? 443 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, and and all I'm realizing that I'm just gonna 444 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 4: probably have to load up on peaking duck. I'm gonna 445 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 4: probably have to do that. Yeah, maybe eight or nine 446 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 4: times over the next twelve days, which is fine. It's 447 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 4: you know, duck taco is pretty much it's it's delicious. 448 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be eating duck. I know that there's a 449 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 4: lot of people out there that. 450 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: Are disappointing every meal right, just once a. 451 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 4: Day, just once today. I'm not doing it every single meal. 452 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 4: But listen, I've had kidney stone problems in the past. 453 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 4: I can I can see where this might end up 454 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 4: if I eat it every single day for the next 455 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 4: twelve days. But I know that people are upset that 456 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 4: Tulane and JAMU are in the college football Playoff because 457 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 4: the group of five schools, they're not two of the 458 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 4: twelve best teams in the country. And I get that, 459 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,959 Speaker 4: but respectfully, I don't care and I'm not gonna apologize 460 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 4: for it because, like my school, being in the twelve 461 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 4: team playoff is a day that I thought would never 462 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 4: happen as long as I lived, So I'm going to 463 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 4: enjoy it. We're probably going to get our teeth kicked 464 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 4: in by the Ducks. They're a big, physical team, but 465 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 4: Jamie is also not bad. I think we've reached the 466 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 4: point that it's in the discussion where now people are 467 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 4: acting like Tulane and JMU, or you know, Division two 468 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 4: schools that don't be on the same like JAMIU has 469 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 4: beaten a lot of the power for schools over the 470 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 4: past few years. Tulane beat two of them this year, 471 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 4: Tulane beat Duke, and JAMU would would have been favored 472 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 4: over Duke on a neutral field if they if they 473 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 4: play at the end of the season. So it's not 474 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 4: like we're terrible teams. It's not going to be you know, 475 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 4: the we're football you've ever seen. We're probably we're not 476 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 4: going to be as big as as Oregon, but I 477 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 4: don't think it's going to be a mismatch like Liberty 478 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 4: Oregon in that Bowl game a couple of years ago, 479 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 4: like sixteen in that thing. It'll be somewhat competitive. I 480 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 4: hope that we can keep it within the points spread, 481 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 4: which I believe now is twenty and a half points. 482 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 4: Jamie's got some players that that you'll see starring next 483 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 4: year at some big schools. We've got I guys, yes, yeah, 484 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 4: well like we do have. You'll know a lot of 485 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 4: our roster based on some really good schools next year, 486 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 4: like Indiana for example. Right now, right Indiana has a 487 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 4: lot of former JMU players that are kind of fueling 488 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 4: this drive. So, yeah, we're not gonna win the championship. 489 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 4: We're probably not gonna beat Oregon, and I'm not gonna 490 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 4: apologize to anybody for being in the playoffs, because this 491 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 4: is simply an incredible thing that happens to me. 492 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: All Right, Philip Rivers is forty four years old. He 493 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: just got he got signed by the Colts. He is 494 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: going to play quarterback for the Colts. At forty four. 495 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: That makes him the oldest quarterback ever in the end, 496 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 2: and I fell to play right. Well, No, George Blanda 497 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 2: was forty eight. Yeah, I think you're right, But I 498 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 2: think he was back. I think he was a backup quarterback. 499 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 2: I don't know if he started, he was still kicking. 500 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 2: I think at an older age. Tell me what you 501 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 2: think it's gonna look like with Philip Rivers quarterbacking the Colts. 502 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna it's gonna look awesome for like 503 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 4: the first snap. And I think that once the Seattle 504 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 4: defense starts to pin their ears back, it could get 505 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 4: very sad, very fast. Philip Rivers was never the most 506 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 4: mobile guy, shall we say. I think we just got 507 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 4: a number one most sackable quarterback in the NFL and 508 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 4: Philip Rivers. I hope it doesn't get ugly. I hope. 509 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 4: I hope he's able to avoid pressure to a certain extent, 510 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 4: or at least be able to protect himself from the 511 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 4: pocket because it wasn't great at the end of his career, 512 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 4: Like he last played what was that twenty twenty one 513 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 4: by Philip Rivers last so yeah, so it wasn't great 514 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 4: when he was playing at the end. I know that 515 00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 4: he's been in this. He's been coaching this offense at 516 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 4: his high school that he goes to. 517 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 2: That's crazy to me that he's using an NFL offense 518 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 2: for high school kids, and that makes me pissed that 519 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 2: the Steelers aren't more on the same page offensively. 520 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 1: If high school kids can figure this stuff out. 521 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so he him and Shane Stike and they've 522 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 4: apparently been talking every week during the season, which makes 523 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 4: me think that Dyken always have this in the back 524 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 4: of his head, Like what if I called Philip Rivers, Like, 525 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 4: why are you talking to Philip Rivers every single week? Yeah, 526 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 4: he's got somebody lined up just in case the relationship 527 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 4: falls through, you know, he's got he's got somebody else 528 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 4: that he can hit up for a date if he 529 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 4: needs to. But it's uh, I don't know. I I 530 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 4: am very excited to watch it. I can't wait to 531 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 4: see what it looks like. I don't think it's gonna 532 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 4: be great. But it is the exact same situation that 533 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 4: that they did with Jeff's Saturday just a few years ago. 534 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 4: It's the same thing. They're doing it again, except with 535 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 4: a quarterback. I hope he wins one. I hope it's 536 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 4: liked this Saturday experiment. Maybe he comes out and they 537 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 4: shock us and it's a high scoring game in his 538 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,959 Speaker 4: first game out there, and then maybe afterwards it kind 539 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 4: of trails off. But if I was a free agent 540 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 4: quarterback and I thought that Philip Rivers was getting a 541 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,959 Speaker 4: call before me at that point, I think I'd probably 542 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 4: just hang it up. Like we might see a lot 543 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 4: of players just retire now, like your Taylor Heineke's, You're 544 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 4: Bend de Uchi's those kind of guys like this might 545 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 4: be the final message that it's not going to happen. 546 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 4: It's so forty four year old Philip Rivers just get 547 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 4: the call. 548 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: I mean, it's not without president this year. You know, 549 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 2: there's been lots of people coming out of retirement and 550 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 2: trying to play. But when it happened for the Lions, 551 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 2: when Ragnow came back, they were like, uh, yeah, it 552 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 2: turns out you don't have a hamstring on your left leg. 553 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 2: Like he was so far away from being able to 554 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 2: be NFL ready. 555 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: I can't believe it even made the news that he 556 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: was going to resign. 557 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, that was one where we thought that maybe 558 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 4: when he decided to come back, he just hadn't really 559 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 4: worked out that much in the last year. And he 560 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 4: went out there and ran a wind sprint and that 561 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 4: just tore his hamstring off. And then he was like, oh, crap, 562 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 4: I've already made the announcement that I'm coming back. I 563 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 4: guess I'll have to get Yeah, at least I'll go 564 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 4: in and get a free medical checkup out of this. 565 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 4: I'll get a free physical, So that's good. Philip Rivers Again, 566 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 4: I don't think he was ever really known for his 567 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 4: stunning feats of athleticism outside of maybe, you know, a 568 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 4: few things he did in college and early on in 569 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 4: his NFL career. So he's just gonna kind of be 570 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 4: asked to stand there like a statue in the pocket 571 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 4: and see if that arm still works, and if it does, 572 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 4: it could be exciting. I was optimistic about the Colts, 573 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 4: I really was. When Daniel Jones was playing for football. 574 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: It was fun, but at this. 575 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 4: Point, I don't see I don't see it working out. 576 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 4: I'd love to be wrong. By the way, this is 577 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 4: one thing I would absolutely love to be wrong about 578 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 4: is Philip Rivers playing playoff football. That would be incredible 579 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 4: in the year twenty I guess it would be twenty 580 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 4: twenty six we get Philip Rivers out on the field. 581 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 4: How lucky would we be to have that happen with us? 582 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 4: But I do think that Taylor Heineke should get call 583 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 4: is He's not bad. He's a gunslinger, he takes a 584 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:05,400 Speaker 4: lot of. 585 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 1: Chances he's out there. You're a bit biased. 586 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 4: I am a bit bias. He was the only quarterback 587 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 4: to cover against Tom Brady on that playoff run. People 588 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 4: forget where tom Brady won the Super Bowl, But I 589 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,719 Speaker 4: mean I've seen him play enough where I think he's 590 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 4: he's a better option than Philip Rivers. So I don't know. 591 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 4: That's That's my two cents on the subject. But again 592 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 4: I am I'm very much rooting for Philip Rivers. I 593 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 4: would love to work. 594 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 2: Out PFT before I let you go. Anything you want 595 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 2: to ask Jane before we we end the segment, No. 596 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 4: Gene, I just want to say I'm a big fan 597 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 4: of your work. I recently became aware of a man 598 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 4: named Mark Butterworth who is the NFL head of replay. 599 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 4: How how has this guy been kept secret from us 600 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 4: for so long? And is he does he actually exist? 601 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 4: Because my theory was the name Butterworth is so friendly sounding, 602 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 4: and it's possible to be to bet. 603 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 5: With a guy like that every time you have your pancakes, 604 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 5: I know you right For some reason, like extra by, 605 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 5: it does feel like Freudian, like they're trying to get 606 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 5: something past little. 607 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: Nobody be mad at this guy. He's delicious, talented guy. 608 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 5: Really wasn't an official per se on the field a lot, 609 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 5: but spend a lot of time in the in the 610 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 5: replay space, which is now this new job description, right 611 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 5: where guys start as replay assistance and work their way 612 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 5: through this channel now so and yes and really really, 613 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 5: you know, as far as the NFL is concerned, the 614 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 5: fact that you don't know his name very well in 615 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 5: the officiating world is usually that that's really kind of 616 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 5: part for the course, right, They do kind of keep 617 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 5: them that way. But he's become a household name here, 618 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 5: you know, as we continue to roll through seasons, which 619 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 5: we all found out will happen. 620 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. PFT brought to you by. 621 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 4: I was I was gonna say, are we considering a move? 622 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 4: Have you heard anything about the NFL doing like what 623 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 4: the ACC does with their replay where and you know 624 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 4: the English Premier League where you can hear every single 625 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 4: thing that's happening and watch the process. 626 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: Oh like total transparency. 627 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, think that we be yea, yeah, I don't think 628 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,919 Speaker 5: you're going to see that the NFL.

And I know ESPN really 631 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 5: blows it up every time they do it, like this 632 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 5: is the greatest thing. And then sometimes you see that 633 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 5: look and it's like, dude, there's like a twenty two 634 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 5: year old kid with an Xbox controller standing in front 635 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 5: of the screen, you know, walking through this segment.

Let's head helward us here. 666 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: The Dolphins are typically pretty bad under a certain temperature. 667 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, two had never won when it's under forty 668 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 3: six degrees prior to beating the Jets. 669 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: Jets, Jets, Jets last Sunday in and that doesn't count. 670 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 3: I gotta say this again, one of the most non 671 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 3: competitive NFL games I've seen recently. It's just three drives, 672 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 3: three touchdowns in the first quarter to start to get 673 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 3: The Jets just were not there, and then they were 674 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 3: down to is it Brady Cooked the quarterback guy? 675 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: I think Brady Cook or Bradley Cook.

So I would imagine of 680 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 2: all the teams, the fan bases, I would imagine are 681 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: the worst or potentially scariest. 682 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: Jets and Raiders. 683 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 5: Raiders back in the old Oakland Stadium, I was a 684 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 5: rookie downfield official called pass interference on the Broncos in 685 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 5: the end zone fifty five yard file put. 686 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: It to the one. 687 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 5: The Raiders punched it on the next play, and I'm 688 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 5: under the goal post next to the back judge for 689 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 5: the extra point, and you know they know your name, 690 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 5: they know you're a rookie, right, so you. 691 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: Start hearing all this. 692 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 5: My referee punched out for time out, and I thought, oh, 693 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 5: I'll look over at the black hole.

Right, 695 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 5: they're giving me the finger, And that was on for you. 696 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 5: Maybe that's why we pulled the index card off fifteen 697 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 5: years later. I'm not giving anything away, you know what 698 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 5: I'm saying, Like, okay. 699 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 10: At the room three eighty, how they know exactly the. 700 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 5: Jets are hard.

I 751 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 5: know it's an ugly god. 752 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: Oh man, no consideration from the kids. 753 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 4: Well. 754 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: Coach Tomlin, for his part, said he had no problem 755 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 2: with the refereeing last week and he wouldn't call the 756 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 2: league and. 757 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: Calls. 758 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 3: I'm glad she's here for this because you know, Mike 759 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 3: Tomlin asked again about the calls in Baltimore, which are 760 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 3: We're in agreement right, Two of them were correct, one 761 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 3: of them was incorrect. 762 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think that's how you look. I thought 763 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 5: the Rogers play was the hardest of the three. I mean, 764 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 5: that's just me openly like dissecting the play. The irony 765 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 5: for me, though, is I was in the middle of 766 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 5: a simultaneous catch with Jacksonville and India at the same 767 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 5: exact time in a different game, So you know that 768 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 5: I'm finishing that really hard play. 769 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: Did they get that one right? I don't think so. 770 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 5: You know, really they gave it to the defense, and 771 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 5: at any rate, so you're you're clearing Jacksonville right as 772 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 5: soon as you hear clear in the studio. It's like, Geane, 773 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 5: we got to play in Pittsburgh and those screens changed, 774 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 5: and the next thing I see is this ball like 775 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 5: pinned on Rogers's head, you know, and trying to break 776 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 5: that down within eight seconds was It was a pretty 777 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 5: uncomfortable moment. 778 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: But I thought that was the harder of the three, 779 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: quite honestly. 780 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 3: John Harville had a lot of problems with it, obviously, 781 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 3: But Mike Tomlins said yesterday he's got enough to worry about. 782 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 11: He just lets the calls be the calls. You know, 783 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 11: It's always been debatable. It seems like I've just learned 784 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 11: to kind of move on, to be quite honest with you, 785 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 11: I moved on from Jesse James, for example, I don't 786 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 11: even know what year that was. 787 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: Does it sound like he had. 788 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 11: The controversial calls and big games. I think I always 789 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 11: focus my energy on making enough plays to minimize that 790 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 11: in terms of determining the outcome of the game. That's 791 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 11: why you won't hear me calling New York post game 792 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 11: for explanations and things of that nature. You guys asked 793 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 11: me that maybe earlier in the year regarding something, It's 794 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 11: not going to change the outcome. I just work to 795 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 11: keep moving and I just like to put together a 796 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 11: comprehensive enough plan and make enough plays where the game's 797 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 11: outcome that inge on a on one play or a 798 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 11: couple of plays. 799 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 2: He's not you know when he says he's you know, 800 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 2: I learned to move on and then he cites a 801 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 2: play that happened a decade ago. You know, it's not 802 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 2: exactly go on from Jesse James. 803 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: When they screwed up against the Legos and the rule 804 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: of the whole season, Yeah, I mean. 805 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 3: Now they have been in contact with the leg I 806 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 3: don't know if it's a technicality where the league reached 807 00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 3: out to them. 808 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: Does that go on or do you have to ask 809 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: a lot. 810 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 5: I think there might be certain levels where the league 811 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 5: would reach out. I don't think that's a normal practice, 812 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 5: you know. I think the coaches all have the opportunity 813 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 5: or someone within the staff to send plays of concern 814 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 5: in each week. 815 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: We called them coaches questions. 816 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 5: Right, and then they that's part of one of the 817 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 5: days of the week for the officiating department, you know, yeah, Thursday. 818 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 5: I remember Bill Pollion back in the days with Indy, 819 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 5: you know, hit like send thirty seven plays in and 820 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 5: I was like, wait, we got to put a maximum 821 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 5: on this thing, you know what I mean. There's something 822 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 5: to that effect. But yeah, and you have to have 823 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 5: that in some ways. If teams want to reach out, 824 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 5: there's hard plays. There's fifty to fifty plays. Tell us 825 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 5: why it isn't this so I can coach it differently, 826 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 5: possibly fair enough. So you want to have it be 827 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 5: a learning piece as well. 828 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, let me do you a quick break. 829 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 2: We'll come back more with Gene Sterator live and studio 830 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 2: here on the DV Morning Show. 831 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 12: Free Ride, joy Ride, whatever your ride.

So you 866 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 1: got a lot of tools, yeah, exactly. 867 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 5: And then they were starting to build a stadium and 868 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 5: when they were renovating, it was like they were lifting 869 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 5: the end zone a little bit too much where touchdown 870 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 5: Jesus wasn't going to be seen. It was like, ohh 871 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 5: stop construction, called the engineers and lower it down a little. 872 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: But you know, there's a beautiful mystique about it. I 873 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: get it, you know. 874 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,879 Speaker 5: But even going back to the PFT talk, Listen, this 875 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 5: thing has to happen. 876 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: Where a jmu wins. 877 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, solely March madness that we love the hoop thing for, 878 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 5: like we've got boys. He did it a little bit 879 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 5: before the playoffs, right that one year, and it became 880 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 5: something all we need is JMU to win like two games, 881 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 5: and now kids are gonna want to go to JMU, 882 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 5: And now the CIP Conference might end up with a 883 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 5: couple of players that don't want to leave after they 884 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 5: become decent players at a mid major, you know what 885 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 5: I mean. And maybe sister Jane comes back and you know, 886 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 5: in the football space or something like that. But I 887 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 5: like that idea. I think football might be a more 888 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 5: difficult sport to have that happened. 889 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 2: Though, Well, I think that that that is the inherent 890 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 2: problem with it, is just the actual personnel. 891 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:10,359 Speaker 3: Yes, overall, I got another inherent problem with it. I'm 892 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 3: all for the playoff, but Indiana next plays I think 893 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 3: on January twond a long. 894 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: Time forever away. 895 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 3: First first, yeah, like, well kind of who takes a 896 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 3: month off before you go to the playoffs? 897 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? And is that good or bad? I mean really terrible. 898 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 5: I get it like players are healing, it's been a 899 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 5: long season, but dude, like four weeks without live action 900 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 5: still there's some rust there. 901 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. 902 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 3: I get the bulls used to be around the holidays 903 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 3: and everything in New Year's Day, but they were just bulls, 904 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? 905 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: They were kind of a different ended. 906 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 3: If this is going to be the playoff of the season, 907 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 3: you got to roll into it after the season. Plus 908 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 3: by the time we get to the new year, I've 909 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 3: moved on to college hoops. In the NFL playoffs, I 910 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 3: don't really care what happens to. 911 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 2: And it's hard to gamble when you don't know how 912 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 2: teams handle three weeks off. 913 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: Get to the priority. I don't know how they handled 914 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 1: this month off.

Nobody cares that. 918 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're not gonna watch them anyway, no matter when 919 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 5: they play. Nobody's going to playoffs first, and then we'll 920 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 5: do the balls later. 921 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 3: Nobody plays in a non playoff bawl anymore because you 922 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:21,720 Speaker 3: gotta get ready for the draft or whatever. 923 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 2: Just with well, I think what I'm hoping is, you know, 924 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 2: you saw the news yesterday with like private equity buying 925 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 2: into Utah and there's like a five hundred million dollar 926 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 2: deal now where they're going to get to control basically 927 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 2: all aspects of the program and revenue and things like that. 928 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 2: That that was the step that a lot of people 929 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 2: were afraid of that was happening that that now it's 930 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 2: just there's no veneer at all. It's like a gold rush. 931 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 2: And what I'm hoping is that, like they squeeze college 932 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 2: football so hard that they kill it and it has 933 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,399 Speaker 2: to come back in its original form in some way 934 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 2: shape because I don't. 935 00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: Recognize it like I used to. 936 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,919 Speaker 2: I hate the fact that these players jump around year 937 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 2: to year so easily. It's the same thing with hoops too, 938 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 2: where it's like I hated Duke because I watched those 939 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,399 Speaker 2: guys for three years and now I really hate them, 940 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 2: and you know, three of them are seniors, and I 941 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 2: be I hate these guys, like you're not building up 942 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 2: the same relationship. 943 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 5: To really dislike yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, yeah, Now 944 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 5: I do think this on the other end, just to 945 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 5: play Devil's advocate, at least on the hoop side, you know, 946 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 5: a lot there's not a lot of openings in the NBA, right, Like, 947 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 5: I mean, you leave college basketball, you're going to Europe. 948 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 5: A couple guys make it to the show, and then 949 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 5: you're in the G League playing in some mid you 950 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 5: know town. You don't know Uh. With the money now, 951 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 5: the players may stay. So I think are our level 952 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 5: of athleticism or personnel in college basketball may increase now 953 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 5: because I am going to stay for four years because 954 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 5: I'm really not going to make the NBA.

Now? 1007 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 6: Well, the time off is scary because I think it's 1008 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 6: a great point. You don't you've never seen in any 1009 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 6: sport a team get that much time off, right, And 1010 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,919 Speaker 6: it's not like baseball where teams who have the buy 1011 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 6: they're used to playing six seven games a week and 1012 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 6: you don't want to buy because you get out of rhythm. 1013 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 6: Whereas football, it's much needed. One of our best defensive 1014 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 6: players had a really bad injury in this game. Our 1015 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 6: coach said he didn't think anyone had that had an 1016 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 6: injury would affect the game because it's in three weeks 1017 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 6: from now. 1018 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 1: So I guess that's an asset. 1019 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,839 Speaker 6: Yeah, everyone gets right, it's still the other and it's 1020 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 6: two guys that have injuries the other. However, I mean, 1021 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 6: how many guys Mike are on a college football roster. Yeah, 1022 00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 6: like ninety. The other eighty eight guys are getting a 1023 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 6: little too rested. It's the younger. 1024 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 2: There's enough that they guys have the same number. Two 1025 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,879 Speaker 2: guys have the same number occasionally, right, which they look 1026 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 2: great at. 1027 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: The number.
