Speaker 1: Ah, yes, thank you so much for tuning us. We
Speaker 1: are fair and biased radio. Your friend John lond with
Speaker 1: you ten am to two pm, weekdays only here on
Speaker 1: the Sports Leader. We'll give you three things you absolutely
Speaker 1: positively have to know. Rights stinking now and they've changed.
Speaker 1: We had a different top three up until a few
Speaker 1: minutes ago. You can apply it on this whole thing.
Speaker 1: You just heard the morning show talking about it. Are
Speaker 1: there worst crimes? Yeah, there are a lot worse crimes.
Speaker 1: You're the owner of the forty nine Ers. If you're
Speaker 1: just joining us, you're like, what's going on? Forty nine
Speaker 1: Ers owner Jed York busted in Ohio in a prostitution case. This,
Speaker 1: according to TMZ, landed in an Ohio jail on Sunday
Speaker 1: restaurants suspicion of engaging in prostitution, busted in East Pales
Speaker 1: nine and booked into the county jail, posting a five
Speaker 1: thound dollars bond. Move quickly from there. Prosecutors at amended
Speaker 1: the original engaging in prostitution count to mister demeanor disordered
Speaker 1: to conduct before York plied no contest this morning. They
Speaker 1: call it possessing criminal tools of mister meanor. A judge
Speaker 1: sentenced him to one day in jail on each count,
Speaker 1: serving concurrently with credit for time served, and ordered him
Speaker 1: to pay one one hundred and fifty dollars. And what's
Speaker 1: going around and most embarrassing to him, I'm sure is
Speaker 1: a orange jumpsuit. I've been in those before. A orange jumpsuit.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's embarrassing. It's more embarrassing than it is
Speaker 1: anything else, I'm sure. And I just heard Murph and
Speaker 1: Marcus talking about it. They played Hugh Grant. There's a
Speaker 1: few different ways you can play this. I'm sure that
Speaker 1: Jet is smart and we'll advise with people, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure that he'll come out and apologize, and he's got
Speaker 1: bigger fish to fry in terms of I'm sure at
Speaker 1: home he's married, has kids, all those kind of things.
Speaker 1: In my opinion on the whole thing, yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: major embarrassment. It's major embarrassment for him, it's a major
Speaker 1: embarrassment for the organization. Stuff happens. There are far worse
Speaker 1: crimes than this, I know, if you want to get
Speaker 1: into depth and trafficking and all that kind of stuff,
Speaker 1: that's not where I'm going with this. I'm just surface
Speaker 1: level saying that the owner of the forty nine ers.
Speaker 1: Do I really need to say this? I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: should he be engaging in these things? No, it's happened.
Speaker 1: Did the guys just played Hugh Grant, it was Eugene
Speaker 1: Robinson before a Super Bowl. It's it's happened to a
Speaker 1: lot of people and they survive it, and Jed will too.
Speaker 1: It's all dependent on what he does. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you just go, look, we're a forgiving society, and if
Speaker 1: you just fall on the sword and say, look, it
Speaker 1: was a really stupid thing I did. Give me time,
Speaker 1: I got to fix my family all those kind of things.
Speaker 1: I'm sure that that's what Jed will do. And that's
Speaker 1: what's going on for now. A bunch of my friends
Speaker 1: are texting me and giving me a bunch of grief
Speaker 1: for it and all this kind of stuff, and that's
Speaker 1: you know, it's gonna be jokes and he's just gonna
Speaker 1: have to deal with it. Bang bang niner gang, all
Speaker 1: those kind of things. I mean, he's just he's gonna
Speaker 1: have to deal with it. He's gonna have to deal
Speaker 1: with the consequences of what he did. It's too bad.
Speaker 1: It's a distraction. But to be honest, as far as
Speaker 1: distractions go, the team is you know, they'll talk about it,
Speaker 1: they'll buzz about it. The new cycle moves really fast.
Speaker 1: That's what Jed York has got to hope that somebody
Speaker 1: does something dumber or more heinous, or whatever the case
Speaker 1: may be, and the new cycle moves fast, and he
Speaker 1: can get out of the new cycle. But the problem
Speaker 1: is is that the one thing is is that the
Speaker 1: Internet is forever, and that picture of him in an
Speaker 1: orange giants looking jumpsuit giants colored jumpsuit is never going
Speaker 1: to go away. And I'm sure he learned his lesson.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's had conversations with his wife. It has
Speaker 1: not been good. It's a private matter. I don't know
Speaker 1: what else you want me to say about it. It's
Speaker 1: not that I'm muzzled by being the on the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers flagship. He already knows, you know. It's like
Speaker 1: when your kid makes a mistake, You're like, what are
Speaker 1: you doing? I know, I know, I know. It's you know,
Speaker 1: I have no idea other than the circumstances of what's
Speaker 1: being reported. But yeah, it's an embarrassment. He's got to
Speaker 1: take it head on. People are going to say that
Speaker 1: it's a major distraction. It's not gonna be a major
Speaker 1: distraction to the organization. The only thing I think is
Speaker 1: as a fan is like, is this going to be?
Speaker 1: You know how sometimes the season starts in a weird way,
Speaker 1: Like remember Brandon a couple of years ago and he
Speaker 1: was holding out and You're like, is the season going
Speaker 1: to be like this? You know, this is fans, And again,
Speaker 1: it goes much deeper than this. I'm just I'm a
Speaker 1: sports stock show host, so we're right away. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: flip it to what I like to talk about, which
Speaker 1: is sports. You know, is this gonna be some sort
Speaker 1: of an indicator of the way that the season goes.
Speaker 1: I hope not. But like I said, new cycle moves
Speaker 1: fast in some ways, it'll be gone before he knows it.
Speaker 1: But the other thing is he has to deal with
Speaker 1: the ramifications are the results of this whole thing with
Speaker 1: his family. He's gonna ask for privacy during that time,
Speaker 1: and then that picture of him in a county jail jumpsuit.
Speaker 1: We'll just never go away, and that will be as
Speaker 1: big a punishment as anything that he probably ever endures.
Speaker 1: Outside of, of course, what his wife thinks of this,
Speaker 1: embarrassment of the whole situation. So that's what's happening today.
Speaker 1: That's the big story. That's what everybody is buzzing him back.
Speaker 1: We got three things right now that we want to
Speaker 1: talk about, but obviously that is going to lead the conversation.
Speaker 1: More than welcome to opine on it, however you want
Speaker 1: hit us up as always on the Golden State Lumber
Speaker 1: and Showroom text line and the UMA guest line, it
Speaker 1: is the same thing at four and five eight aweight
Speaker 1: canby are four and five eighty eight five six two seven.
Speaker 1: Embarrassment to him, embarrassment to the organization his wife is.
Speaker 1: I'm sure none too happy. He's gonna do the right thing.
Speaker 1: He's not stupid, well in this case he was, but
Speaker 1: he's not a stupid person. And so he's gonna get together,
Speaker 1: I'm sure with the powers that be, with the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers, if they take this thing head on, he apologizes,
Speaker 1: Does the right thing gets in front of some cameras,
Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera, it will be forgotten, but it
Speaker 1: will never be truly forgotten, like I said, because the
Speaker 1: way that the Internet works constantly. I've already had that
Speaker 1: picture sent to me twenty five times today and I'm like, yes,
Speaker 1: I know, this is what I do for a living.
Speaker 1: I know that that occurred, and people are making jokes,
Speaker 1: and that's just he's gonna have to endure that for
Speaker 1: the time being. It's just the way it is. It's
Speaker 1: part of the part of the process. So again, you
Speaker 1: can hit us up four and five eightywaight, canby are
Speaker 1: four and five eighty eight? Five six to seven? Not
Speaker 1: a great way for the forty nine ers to start
Speaker 1: a Monday. All right, let's get to it. We got
Speaker 1: three things to get you caught up on, right stinking now,
Speaker 1: let's do it.
Speaker 2: Let's get to the headlines. Fair and Bias gives you
Speaker 2: three things you need to know right now. Number one.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the three things. Number one,
Speaker 1: let's go to the field for the forty nine ers.
Speaker 1: And I was gonna be in such a great but
Speaker 1: I'm always in great mood. You know, it's Monday. I'm
Speaker 1: in a great mood. I get to talk sports for
Speaker 1: a living once again. If you've been gone for a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks and you're like, what the hell does happen.
Speaker 1: Lound is back, Yeah, and I'm doing tended to on
Speaker 1: Fair and Bias Radio. And what we do is we
Speaker 1: do three things to get you caught up on everything.
Speaker 1: And I was at a great mood. Still, I'm in
Speaker 1: a great mood, and the forty nine ers are in
Speaker 1: a good place because you see, you see, you see
Speaker 1: there's actually actually getting healthy as the game approaches. What
Speaker 1: he's seventeen sixteen, seventeen days away from September tenth and
Speaker 1: the first game down Under in Australia against the Rams.
Speaker 1: Here is Christian McCaffrey. Yes, talking about him coming back.
Speaker 1: We all were nervous, and he's more impressed by George
Speaker 1: Kittle and the fact that he's off the pup list.
Speaker 1: Here's christ McCaffrey.
Speaker 3: You know, the way the media works now is firestorm.
Speaker 3: But you know this was kind of part of the
Speaker 3: plan from the jump was to ramp up pretty big,
Speaker 3: get nine to ten practices in kind of come back
Speaker 3: down and then ramp back up so we're fresh for
Speaker 3: the duration. So you know, our staff's done a great
Speaker 3: job of kind of coming up with specific plans. And
Speaker 3: you know, again I feel great, you know, feel fresh
Speaker 3: and it's good to be back out there.
Speaker 4: How do you think George looked, and what do you
Speaker 4: think about his Just how fast he's getting back from his.
Speaker 3: Achilles It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: I've been we've been watching them, you know, you know,
Speaker 3: just because guys are out there practicing, they're still working out.
Speaker 3: So I've been watching him for the last I don't know,
Speaker 3: four or five weeks, going out there and working out,
Speaker 3: and he looks incredible, and it's it's it really is amazing.
Speaker 3: It's a testament to his work ethic, how much time
Speaker 3: he puts into recovering. But to come back this fast,
Speaker 3: you know, there's a difference between coming back quickly and
Speaker 3: coming back and looking like that, And so it's amazing.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: When eighty five's on the field, when he's in shoulder
Speaker 3: pads and a helmet, everybody on the team feels it.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 1: So two things were accomplished there. Christian McCaffrey is healthy,
Speaker 1: so we don't have to panic over that the word
Speaker 1: tightness or whatever, or they hiding him as a contract situation.
Speaker 1: The Niners were consistent in saying it was not a
Speaker 1: contract situation, despite the fact that Mike Florio was like,
Speaker 1: and look, I couldn't totally discount it because it's happened before,
Speaker 1: and players do not like when they don't have any
Speaker 1: more guaranteed money. Even if you're as good as Christian McCaffrey,
Speaker 1: it just makes you nervous to not have that safety net.
Speaker 1: Remember Trent Williams held out and was like, look, I know,
Speaker 1: but I'm getting older, so appease me with some guaranteed money.
Speaker 1: They did that. Trent Williams came back. Wouldn't have totally
Speaker 1: surprised or shocked me if that was Christian McCaffrey. But
Speaker 1: he's ready to go. There is no holdout. There is
Speaker 1: no financial situation, at least that we know of. He
Speaker 1: is back on the field, and that is good now.
Speaker 1: In regards to George Kittle, because he's been taken off
Speaker 1: the pup list doesn't necessarily mean he's going to play
Speaker 1: in Game one. Adam Schefter spoken on the mcapee show
Speaker 1: this morning. There's lots of people opining on what is
Speaker 1: George Kittle. He's looked good at practice, he was out there,
Speaker 1: so could he play? Should he play? All those kind
Speaker 1: of things. I've heard a lot of people say, well,
Speaker 1: he shouldn't play. Well, Look, this is the way it
Speaker 1: works in professional sports. If you're healthy, you play. If
Speaker 1: the doctor's clear you, you play. They're not waiting for George.
Speaker 1: He plays a certain style. It is conducive to him
Speaker 1: getting injured. But it's the Rams in week number one,
Speaker 1: and if he's healthy, he's going to play. So because
Speaker 1: there's two things here, because he's off of the pup
Speaker 1: list doesn't necessarily mean he's gonna play. But if he's healthy,
Speaker 1: he is going to play. And I don't understand the
Speaker 1: people who have said, well, you got to hold him out,
Speaker 1: hold him out for what There's seventeen of these things,
Speaker 1: and if the doctor's clear him, he's going to play.
Speaker 1: So we'll keep an eye on George Kittle. But that
Speaker 1: is the first step in him coming back and his recovery.
Speaker 1: So that is number one. Another's beyond the crazy Jed
Speaker 1: York story this morning number two, And I'll get into
Speaker 1: this a little bit later on in the show, because
Speaker 1: this is not only a national story, but it's got
Speaker 1: some local ties to it that we're gonna play with
Speaker 1: a little bit. But this is Deshaun Watson, who, by
Speaker 1: the way, a lot's happened this morning. So on Friday
Speaker 1: night he went after the home fans, which is always
Speaker 1: a bad idea, after he went five for twelve with
Speaker 1: an interception. He's only played in a handful of games,
Speaker 1: He's been injured a lot. He cost them three first
Speaker 1: round picks, the Browns guaranteed him two hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: a million dollars, and he has not gotten them out
Speaker 1: of their downturn as far as the worst quarterback franchise
Speaker 1: in all of the history of the NFL. So here's
Speaker 1: a quick hit Todd Monkin, the head coach of the
Speaker 1: Eat Browns, and then we'll do this a little bit
Speaker 1: later in full. Here's Todd Monkin on how to not
Speaker 1: get food on an NFL field. Their head coach number two.
Speaker 6: I'm concerned about who gives us the best chance to
Speaker 6: win first week. We'll get to that when we get
Speaker 6: to it. My reaction was a young man who's worked
Speaker 6: awfully hard to get back to where he is now
Speaker 6: and he wants to and the worst way play winning
Speaker 6: football for the Browns organization and the fans. And it
Speaker 6: didn't go as we had hoped or he did, I'm sure,
Speaker 6: and I just I think we have to be a
Speaker 6: little bit careful of judging someone right after going out
Speaker 6: there to play feel like he's put in the work,
Speaker 6: and then to not perform as well as he would
Speaker 6: have wanted. And like I said, we all want to
Speaker 6: be appreciated. He spoke from the heart, and I don't
Speaker 6: ever blame someone that speaks from the heart. And then
Speaker 6: someone would say, well, do you feel like he's he
Speaker 6: doesn't have confidence. I don't see that. I don't see that.
Speaker 1: Every day.
Speaker 6: I see a young man that has confidence and he
Speaker 6: wanted to perform in the worst way at.
Speaker 1: A high level. But you'd never call out the home fans,
Speaker 1: which he did. He called out, he got booed. That's
Speaker 1: the way it goes if you're a quarterback, and it's
Speaker 1: the way that Jed york is going to have to
Speaker 1: handle his situation. They're far different. But here's what I
Speaker 1: mean by that is you fall on the soho or
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, you went five to twelve of an interception,
Speaker 1: they booed you. I've got to be better. I haven't
Speaker 1: lived up to my contract. We love it as a society,
Speaker 1: whether it's sports, politics, business, any aspect. Just fallen the sword,
Speaker 1: give us a reason to forgive you, and if you don't,
Speaker 1: then we'll go against you. We'll bring the pitchforks, we'll
Speaker 1: be angry, but all you have to do is say
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. We'll get more into Deshaun Watson a little
Speaker 1: bit later. That is number two on the list, and
Speaker 1: then number one on the list. Now, I'll be honestly,
Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of Giants today. You have
Speaker 1: to earn your way onto the show. That's kind of
Speaker 1: how I think about it. And the Giants just haven't
Speaker 1: been playing very good baseball. But we talked a lot
Speaker 1: on Friday about how Rafael Devers would be received in Boston.
Speaker 1: While we got our answer here he is first time
Speaker 1: at bat.
Speaker 5: Well, listen to Devers get introduced.
Speaker 1: The designated hitter number sixteen.
Speaker 2: Raphael Devers.
Speaker 5: Well, I think Hobby is sort of you kind of
Speaker 5: knew it was coming from some corners. I've disappointed that
Speaker 5: this is a guy who did a fabulous job for
Speaker 5: years wearing the Red Sox uniform.
Speaker 1: You should never be disappointed when you come here. You
Speaker 1: gotta know that's coming. I'm sure your brother gave you
Speaker 1: a head. Hobby Lopez is when ennivercent right. He played
Speaker 1: for the Red Sox for a long time. There are
Speaker 1: certain cities, and not only certain cities. I just think
Speaker 1: it's fandom he left under streamed circumstances, wouldn't grab his
Speaker 1: glove and play first base in Boston. But the other
Speaker 1: side of it is he helped them win a World
Speaker 1: Series in twenty eighteen. But it's a Friday night. Fans
Speaker 1: are drinking, they're getting looped up. I said this on Friday.
Speaker 1: It's a wild wildfire kind of a mentality. Guy, next year, booze,
Speaker 1: you start booing, But I'll say this. Put a guy
Speaker 1: on from WEEI in Boston on Friday and he said,
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be about seventy thirty seventy boos,
Speaker 1: thirty cheers, And I think that's what I heard. They
Speaker 1: panned the crowd as well. By the way, that was
Speaker 1: Dave Fleming, the Great Dave Fleming and Hobby Lopez. As
Speaker 1: I said, Hobby played many years in Boston, so he knew.
Speaker 1: But I don't even think it was a Boston thing,
Speaker 1: or a Philly thing, or a New York thing, or
Speaker 1: whatever sports city you want to talk about. I think
Speaker 1: maybe even in San Francisco, this circumstances you left us.
Speaker 1: I know he didn't make the trade, but he made
Speaker 1: it so they almost had to trade him. And as
Speaker 1: we talked about on Friday, I'd still do that trade
Speaker 1: one hundred out of one hundred times. By the way,
Speaker 1: he did go one for ten, three bases on balls,
Speaker 1: three strikeouts, did hit that home run his second at bat,
Speaker 1: and of course the Giants did not have a good weekend.
Speaker 1: So there you go, Hobby and Dave on the call,
Speaker 1: and I think it was about seventy thirty. You can
Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong in that one, but I
Speaker 1: think it was about seventy thirty, just like our guy
Speaker 1: from WEEI said it would be. We'll give you one
Speaker 1: segment on the Giants later today. That's it. I don't
Speaker 1: think there should be more discussion than that. Where they
Speaker 1: are young players, all that kind of stuff. That's where
Speaker 1: we are as far as the Giants goes, not about
Speaker 1: wins and losses, but guys who are progressing from sloppy
Speaker 1: baseball as we accustomed to. So there you go. That's
Speaker 1: the report on the Giant. So three things, actually four
Speaker 1: things that you got to know about the Giants over
Speaker 1: the weekend, And how Raffie Devers was received. Deshaun Watson
Speaker 1: just doesn't get it, and that story has a ton
Speaker 1: of legs. And then of course the forty nine Ers.
Speaker 1: Good news, bad news. Good news is Christian McCaffrey back
Speaker 1: on the field, George Kittle off the pup list. But
Speaker 1: embarrassing news for the owner of the forty nine Ers
Speaker 1: today is Jed York prostitution. It did get pled down
Speaker 1: in Ohio as well, but not a good situation. Like
Speaker 1: I said, it's not simple, it's not easy. But if
Speaker 1: he falls on this ord and says, look, this is
Speaker 1: my issue, I shouldn't have done this, it's embarrassing. All
Speaker 1: those kind of things. I think that everyone will forgive.
Speaker 1: It's when you try to fight us on those kind
Speaker 1: of things. This a society that people get angry about.
Speaker 1: I don't think Jed is going to do that. Embarrassing
Speaker 1: for the organization. Is it a distraction? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: But you can hit me up any old time on
Speaker 1: the Golden State Lumber and Showroom text line or on
Speaker 1: the UMI gas line as well. Both are four and
Speaker 1: five anyway, can be our four and five eighty eight
Speaker 1: five six two seven, all right, I'll keep it on
Speaker 1: the field coming up next. As far as the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers, what have we learned through two preseason games,
Speaker 1: the good, the bad, the ugly. I want to get
Speaker 1: your thoughts as well. And again, remember we're live at
Speaker 1: the CANBR Casino Matrix, Progressive Jackpots Studios Casino Matrix Progressive
Speaker 1: Jackparts are here. Where are you? I don't know. Just
Speaker 1: drop in one eight hundred gambler. Thanks for joining us
Speaker 1: fair and Biased on a Monday only here on the
Speaker 1: Sports Leader.
Speaker 2: Fair and Biased comes to you live from the k
Speaker 2: nb R Casino Matrix Jackpots Studios Casino Matrix to Progressive
Speaker 2: Jackpots are here.
Speaker 3: Where are you?
Speaker 2: Just drop in one eight hundred gambler.
Speaker 1: Second down and twelve.
Speaker 5: Mullen's passy catch by Kettle a one handed crab.
Speaker 7: What race.
Speaker 8: Down here?
Speaker 3: The five.
Speaker 1: Dangerous throw and George Kettle good young tight end Haulding
Speaker 1: in for seventy two the good young tight end that
Speaker 1: was twenty eighteen. It is Raiders week, by the way,
Speaker 1: it's not the same. I get it. I've been to
Speaker 1: a few Raiders games, of course, I was at the
Speaker 1: ill fated Super Bowl at Elite Stadium as well. It
Speaker 1: is not anywhere near obviously what Oakland v. San Francisco was,
Speaker 1: but it's still Raiders week, and I can remember that game.
Speaker 1: I remember pregame walking around and they had it up
Speaker 1: on the board, you know, at Levi Stadium. They had
Speaker 1: it up on the board and it was a Raider's
Speaker 1: helmet and the Niners helmet, and everybody knew obviously that
Speaker 1: the Raiders were going to Vegas and this would be
Speaker 1: the final one between Oakland and San Francisco, and it's
Speaker 1: just a weird night. And if you remember, both teams
Speaker 1: weren't very good. Nick Mullins was the Nick Mullins was
Speaker 1: the quarterback for the forty nine Ers. George had an
Speaker 1: amazing breakout year that year. Remember we had the two
Speaker 1: hundred and ten yards all in the first yard against
Speaker 1: our first half against Denver, had a Chargers game where
Speaker 1: I think he had about a buck twenty five, had
Speaker 1: four or five one hundred yard games, and that catch
Speaker 1: over the middle where he tipped it to himself, caught it,
Speaker 1: went seventy one yards and then was caught inside the
Speaker 1: five yard line. Joe Buck and I believe Apman was
Speaker 1: on the call back in the day on a Thursday,
Speaker 1: and at football game, and I remember the Raiders have
Speaker 1: the old throwback uniforms with like the silver lettering and
Speaker 1: stuff like that, and the whole game you interes thinking
Speaker 1: to yourself, this is it, Like this is the end
Speaker 1: of Raiders and Niners as we know it. I remember that.
Speaker 1: Then I've gone on January first. I've told you that
Speaker 1: story before January first. It was Raiders and Niners, and
Speaker 1: I wasn't feeling so great because I was in Vegas
Speaker 1: and it was New Year's Day. Whoever scheduled that game
Speaker 1: can go straight to hell. I mean it was like,
Speaker 1: you really, we're in Vegas and you're gonna put that
Speaker 1: on January first. But and that was just a crazy game.
Speaker 1: Jared Stidham was the quarterback that day for the Raiders
Speaker 1: and they actually gave the Niners all they could all
Speaker 1: they could handle. And then later that year, obviously the
Speaker 1: Niners went back and playing the Super Bowl against Kansas City.
Speaker 1: So is it what it was? No, it's not what
Speaker 1: it was. But it's still pretty cool that the Raiders
Speaker 1: and the Niners hookup for the final preseason game coming up,
Speaker 1: and you know, that's kind of how preseason works. It's funny.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you feel the same way. Hit
Speaker 1: me up four and five eightyway. We are four and
Speaker 1: five eighty eight, five sixty seven here on PHARIR and
Speaker 1: Bias Radio on the Esports Leader. But it's like the
Speaker 1: first preseason game you're like, yeah, football, and then by
Speaker 1: the third when you're like, we get this done? Could
Speaker 1: get this over with? Can everybody get healthy through camp?
Speaker 1: Can we not have any injuries? Can we not have
Speaker 1: any issues? Can we just get Can we just get
Speaker 1: to September tenth so we can play the rams and
Speaker 1: make this thing for real. So that's kind of where
Speaker 1: we are, like sixteen seventeen days away from the opener.
Speaker 1: But here are the good, bad, the ugly, so far
Speaker 1: from the forty nine ers get your thoughts as well
Speaker 1: at four and five eighty eight camb Are And the
Speaker 1: best news is as you heard that catch from from
Speaker 1: George Kittle in twenty eighteen and Joe Buck calling him
Speaker 1: the good young tight end of the forty nine ers
Speaker 1: in his breakout year. There he coming off the injured
Speaker 1: list or are the pup list, I should say, and
Speaker 1: not have to miss the first number of games of
Speaker 1: the season. Is really, really good. So I'll go through
Speaker 1: a good, bad and the ugly. But health is and
Speaker 1: I don't want to jink to this thing, but health
Speaker 1: is starting to come around for the forty nine ers,
Speaker 1: see him, see his back. Kittle is off the pup list.
Speaker 1: The biggest star is obviously Nick Boso, so we still
Speaker 1: kind of our fingers crossed him by the way. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna play this for you in just a second of
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, but before I do, I know he understands this,
Speaker 1: but I just want to remind him that we're just
Speaker 1: as Niners media, as Niners fans, as people in the
Speaker 1: Bay Area. Like when it comes to forty nine ers
Speaker 1: being off the field, we would like to give the
Speaker 1: player the benefit of the doubt, but we can't, like
Speaker 1: until Bosa is back on the field and he's one
Speaker 1: hundred percent and a Matt Mayoko or a Matt Barrows
Speaker 1: or a cam Inman or a Nick Wagner or somebody
Speaker 1: with credibility other than some jackass in their basement tells
Speaker 1: me that he's back and he's good, and I see
Speaker 1: it and they report it, and like, we can't give
Speaker 1: you the benefit of doubt, Like we see him see
Speaker 1: being out and the word being used with tightness, like
Speaker 1: until he's on the field and you'll hear from him
Speaker 1: in just a second. I can't take anybody's word except
Speaker 1: for one of those insiders throw schefter in there. I
Speaker 1: guess as well, but I got to see it. And
Speaker 1: that's just kind of how we operate as fans and media.
Speaker 1: Like you can say that, but it's been said so
Speaker 1: many times before. That guy's fine, uh oh, this guy's fine,
Speaker 1: uh oh. So that's kind of how we operate. And
Speaker 1: I understand CMC going the media is in a frenzy.
Speaker 1: In fact, this is exactly what CMC said on Saturday
Speaker 1: when he got back on the field to you. Talked
Speaker 1: about himself, then he talked about George Kittle.
Speaker 3: You know, the way the way the media works now
Speaker 3: is firestorm. But you know, this was kind of part
Speaker 3: of the plan from the jump was to ramp up
Speaker 3: pretty big, get nine to ten practices in kind of
Speaker 3: come back down and then ramp back up so we're
Speaker 3: fresh for the duration. So you know, our staff's done
Speaker 3: a great job of kind of coming up with specific
Speaker 3: plans and you know, again I feel great, you know,
Speaker 3: feel fresh, and it's good to be back out there.
Speaker 4: How do you think George looked, and what do you
Speaker 4: think about his Just how fast he's getting back from
Speaker 4: his achilles.
Speaker 3: It's unbelievable. Man, I've been We've been watching them, you know,
Speaker 3: you know, just because guys are not out there practicing,
Speaker 3: they're still working out. So I've been watching him for
Speaker 3: the last I don't know, four or five weeks going
Speaker 3: out there and working out, and he looks incredible, and
Speaker 3: it really is amazing. It's a testament to his work ethic,
Speaker 3: how much time he puts into recovering. But to come
Speaker 3: back this fast, you know, there's a difference between coming
Speaker 3: back quickly and coming back and looking like that, And
Speaker 3: so it's amazing.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: When eighty five is on the field, when he's in
Speaker 3: shoulder pads and a helmet, everybody on the team feels it.
Speaker 1: All right. So the list right now, and it's great.
Speaker 1: It's great to have semc back. It's great to hear
Speaker 1: that George Kittle is on a good track and he's
Speaker 1: off the pupp list. But still no Nick Bosa, so
Speaker 1: I'm nervous. Haven't had Christian McAffrey the entire camp. Malik
Speaker 1: Mustafa is still not practicing, Kyle Yustek still not practicing.
Speaker 1: I don't have an issue with that. He's thirty five.
Speaker 1: I think that's it. Add Nick Martin who's got a
Speaker 1: muscle injury, at Luke Gifford, Robert Jones who's competing for
Speaker 1: the left guard spot. So those guys, and then Sunday
Speaker 1: not practicing. Romelo height and he's all of a sudden
Speaker 1: become a really important play because I'm gonna get to
Speaker 1: the bad and the ugly in just a second. But
Speaker 1: twenty sacks last year, Bosa has him been practicing a lot.
Speaker 1: I know that he can just roll out of bed
Speaker 1: and pressure the quarterback. I get it. But they're gonna
Speaker 1: need more opposite him. Ronaldo Green with a hamstring. We'll
Speaker 1: get into that in a second. And Grayson Halton one
Speaker 1: of the depth pieces along the defensive line. So still injuries.
Speaker 1: By the way, Mike Evans took off his pads early.
Speaker 1: Everybody freaks out about that. This is gonna be a
Speaker 1: season long thing with Mike Evans, so let's just get
Speaker 1: used to it. Mike Evans is older, Mike Evans has
Speaker 1: been banged up in the past. He's gonna kind of
Speaker 1: get the Trent Williams treatment, just so you know, all
Speaker 1: season long and it's gonna be reported he didn't practice,
Speaker 1: he didn't finish practice, he wasn't in certain drills, he
Speaker 1: wasn't in eleven, he wasn't in on this, that or
Speaker 1: the other. That's just gonna be Mike Evans all season long.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna save you a little bit of
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's heartache that's the wrong word,
Speaker 1: but just freaking out because Mike Evans, even though he's
Speaker 1: not as old as Trent Williams, does not play obviously
Speaker 1: as physical of a position as Mike Evans. He's gonna
Speaker 1: be given the Trent Williams treatment all season long. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna worry about Mike Evans until I'm told to
Speaker 1: worry about Mike Evans. If he doesn't finish a practice,
Speaker 1: if he's not on the field, if he's got an
Speaker 1: ice bag, if he's got this, he's got that. If
Speaker 1: Mike Evans is playing on Sunday, that's all I really
Speaker 1: care about. So that's just my thought. You can absolutely
Speaker 1: disagree with that. More goods right now going on. I
Speaker 1: saw Rock Party on with Pat McAfee on Friday. I
Speaker 1: thought it was a great interview. You should go back
Speaker 1: and watch it. We've got some cuts from it. Here
Speaker 1: is Brock Purty, who I think he's going to have
Speaker 1: an absolutely great year, says he wants to be a machine.
Speaker 1: Take a listen to this.
Speaker 7: I think just I know it sounds cheesy, but like
Speaker 7: the fundamentals with my footwork, you know, being deliberate and
Speaker 7: playing with a little bit more sense of urgency within
Speaker 7: the pocket with my feet. Those are things that we
Speaker 7: sort of, you know, watched on film that came up.
Speaker 7: It's I want to be more on top of you know,
Speaker 7: going through my reads and just being more of a machine.
Speaker 7: And so I think my quarterback coach Mick Lombardi was
Speaker 7: on me about it, which I loved, and I feel
Speaker 7: like during camp it's it's shown like the progress from
Speaker 7: Ota s till now, just being fundamentally on top of it,
Speaker 7: mentally learning from all the situational things that happened last year,
Speaker 7: but putting those things together and just going out there
Speaker 7: and trying to be the best machine that I can be.
Speaker 1: How about Brock, I want to be a machine. The
Speaker 1: Niners are gonna score points. Health is always everything, so
Speaker 1: let's just we don't again. It's kind of like Mike Evans,
Speaker 1: like we don't even have to say health anymore. Like
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers are synonymous with And I've done
Speaker 1: tons of interviews over the last couple of weeks about
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, and everybody asks me the same question,
Speaker 1: But what about health? But what about health? But what
Speaker 1: about health? Let's just say between you and I right now,
Speaker 1: we do this for the entire season, we just do
Speaker 1: it once. Now, everything does depend on health, but we
Speaker 1: don't have to talk about it every single day. But
Speaker 1: I think Brock's gonna have a great year. Only played
Speaker 1: in the nine games last year CMC in the backfield,
Speaker 1: I love the depth of wide receiver. We're gonna get
Speaker 1: into stribbling in a second. I think Evans is gonna
Speaker 1: be healthy, at least at the beginning of the year.
Speaker 1: I just told you how to kind of look at him.
Speaker 1: The way the season is going to go. Everybody tells me,
Speaker 1: so I'll believe it. That Debo Shamuel's in the quote
Speaker 1: unquote best shape of his life. Kyle Shanahan knows how
Speaker 1: to use him. Those those are two of your three
Speaker 1: wide receivers. And even though I've been told this, it's
Speaker 1: pretty obvious Deshaun Stribling is a starter. He's done it.
Speaker 1: You can do this in camp. You can be the
Speaker 1: thirty third overall pick. And because Kristen Kirk hasn't played
Speaker 1: at all, and that's what he does. He's been hurt
Speaker 1: his almost his entire career, and I like the guy,
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure if he's going to make the team.
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how much money the forty nine
Speaker 1: ers owe him, but from what I've been told, it's
Speaker 1: not a huge amount of money. So Deshaun Stribling is
Speaker 1: going to be a starter. I like those three. I
Speaker 1: like Jordan Watkins as a backup. I like Robinson as
Speaker 1: a veteran player. I would like it if Christian Kirk
Speaker 1: got healthy. That's six guys, and that doesn't even count
Speaker 1: Jacob Cowing, who had the eighty three yard punt return,
Speaker 1: and that doesn't automatically make him make this roster, but
Speaker 1: that's a pretty that's some pretty good depth, and you'll
Speaker 1: probably get him back in the practice squad whatever. So
Speaker 1: I like the receivers. We're getting good news on George Kittle.
Speaker 1: Toun just showed that when Kittle's out he can be
Speaker 1: a pass receiving threat as well. And let's continue with
Speaker 1: the good, because I'm doing the good, bad, and the
Speaker 1: ugly here on the forty nine ers to this point
Speaker 1: in training camp, about sixteen seventeen days out in Camp
Speaker 1: four and five eighty eight cambr you can opine on
Speaker 1: what you think. One of the things I was nervous
Speaker 1: about early in camp was this was probably not probably
Speaker 1: this was the most inexperienced players that you had in
Speaker 1: the backfield behind Christian McCaffrey. And we all know that
Speaker 1: Kyle is so in love with Christan McAffrey. He's not
Speaker 1: going to take him off the field. But as he
Speaker 1: approaches the magic age which he has of thirty, they
Speaker 1: absolutely positively have to get him off the field and
Speaker 1: off his feet a little bit and not over use him.
Speaker 1: And so Cayln Black has shown those things McCormick, Sinceer
Speaker 1: McCormick has shown these things, I think they have good depth.
Speaker 1: It's unproven depth, James I really like as well, So
Speaker 1: it's unproven depth, but I like what I've seen so far.
Speaker 1: And then as far as the bad things are concerned,
Speaker 1: really there's only two things that are making me real
Speaker 1: nervous again. Health. But we don't have to talk about that.
Speaker 1: He said that, but then I just brought it up again,
Speaker 1: So I just contradicted myself. But the second thing is
Speaker 1: the secondary cannot hold up. Rinaldo Green is already out.
Speaker 1: I like what I've seen from Jack Jones, but I'm
Speaker 1: just going by history. When you bounce from team to
Speaker 1: team to team to team to team. We've seen him
Speaker 1: make plays in the preseason, but he was with the Raiders,
Speaker 1: the Patriots, the Dolphins. Like he's bounced around and he's
Speaker 1: one of those guys, and it's like, well, if he's
Speaker 1: that good, why is he bouncing around. So I don't
Speaker 1: love the depth at corner specifically, and that's going to
Speaker 1: get tested early in the season. It looks like and
Speaker 1: then the ugly and the good, bad and the ugly
Speaker 1: is it still has not emerged. They had one sack
Speaker 1: in the last preseason game. Nothing's emerged from the outside.
Speaker 1: As far as the juice, I like the interior depth.
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of Collins, I'm a fan of Osa.
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of the young depth that they have
Speaker 1: inside the edge. They don't have any depth. They don't
Speaker 1: even have enough starters. Mckel Williams is not going to
Speaker 1: be back in time for the beginning of the season.
Speaker 1: Romelo hype everybody keeps talking about, but it's kind of
Speaker 1: fool's gold a lot of times too. I look at
Speaker 1: rookies as like a dartboard. Like Deshaun's dribbling looks like
Speaker 1: he's gonna be really, really, really really good, But I
Speaker 1: can't put him in the bank yet because it's just preseason.
Speaker 1: Romelo height hasn't shown enough. I think if the Niners
Speaker 1: were being honest with us as far as a personnel
Speaker 1: apartment is concerned, they didn't do enough to get juice
Speaker 1: on the outside. He had twenty sacks last year, twenty
Speaker 1: and you couldn't say to yourself, well, well, cal Waynam was
Speaker 1: gonna jump back, Well he didn't have He wasn't a
Speaker 1: sack machine last year. Bosa camp do it on it
Speaker 1: on his own. When this team has been really good
Speaker 1: at the highest levels under Kyle Shannan, it's because they
Speaker 1: got juics. It's because along the defensive line they have juice.
Speaker 1: And right now, if we did good Man and the Ugly,
Speaker 1: that's probably the ugliest part of the forty nine ers.
Speaker 1: So give me your thoughts. Those are my thoughts, and
Speaker 1: where we're sitting right now about sixteen seventeen days outside
Speaker 1: of the first game against the Rams. Hit us up
Speaker 1: at eighty eight cambr four win, five eighty eight, five,
Speaker 1: six two seven. You can hit us up with your thoughts.
Speaker 1: What do you like? What are you nervous about? And
Speaker 1: we don't have to talk about injuries anymore, well, at
Speaker 1: least does a consistent thing? Can we agree on that?
Speaker 1: You and I? That would be nice. Golden State Lumber
Speaker 1: and showroom text line and the Uma guest line are
Speaker 1: the same at four win, five eighty eight five at
Speaker 1: six two seven. I'll start reading the best and would
Speaker 1: love to hear your sweet clean voice as well. But
Speaker 1: it is time we do the daily big poll. By
Speaker 1: the way, I got to stopped for a second. Uh,
Speaker 1: Jacob's year running the show. Tim is doing something and
Speaker 1: Jacob is here. Bro, We've Jacob and I have known
Speaker 1: each other for a very very long, long long time.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to say hi. It's we're like twenty
Speaker 1: thirty minutes in the show. I haven't even said how
Speaker 1: are you, man, dude?
Speaker 9: I'm doing well, man, it's always good to be on
Speaker 9: with you. It's been a long time, but it's a
Speaker 9: good reunion.
Speaker 1: Baby. Yeah, it's very nice. Are you still rocking the
Speaker 1: the best hair in all of the building, dude? No,
Speaker 1: I got a haircut a few months ago.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so no, no more crazy George Tarzan look looking
Speaker 9: guy anymore.
Speaker 1: All right. Yeah, it doesn't mean you don't have the
Speaker 1: best hair of the building. It's just you had it
Speaker 1: by a mile. Like you'd walk in and the rest
Speaker 1: of us would go, oh man, you know because the women,
Speaker 1: the women, children, the man, all of them were like,
Speaker 1: that's good hair, really good.
Speaker 9: The boys are a little disappointed with the trim up. Man,
Speaker 9: it's it's been it's been tough out here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, I wouldn't know this because I'm
Speaker 1: having a bad hair life. But like it probably was
Speaker 1: like a It probably was an every day kind of
Speaker 1: a doing.
Speaker 8: Right.
Speaker 1: You're like, oh my god, I gotta drive this thing,
Speaker 1: I gotta do this, I gotta do because you had
Speaker 1: like the long hair, like not messing around, thick, long,
Speaker 1: nice hair, So probably you know it took a while
Speaker 1: to drive to grow out, wild to do or did
Speaker 1: you just throw on a hat or what did it?
Speaker 1: You know, because you weren't a big hat guy. You
Speaker 1: were't a big hat guy at all.
Speaker 9: No dude, no Fedora guy. You know, I'll rock a
Speaker 9: baseball had of the Giants game, dude. A lot of conditioning,
Speaker 9: a lot of brushing. Okay, dude, this thing gets got dready,
Speaker 9: you know. So I can't be rocking around with naps
Speaker 9: up in here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's rough, all right. It's good to have Jake
Speaker 1: about the show today. Good to have you on a
Speaker 1: Monday version of the pole. Let's get going. It is
Speaker 1: time for the big Pole. We'll do that coming up next.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I woke up today and I was
Speaker 1: just thinking Raiders and Niners, and so I made it
Speaker 1: a Raiders Niners pole. I don't know that I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do this all week long, but I think this is
Speaker 1: a good one. So we need your participation coming up next.
Speaker 1: What we'll do is we'll put this up on YouTube
Speaker 1: coming up next. Well, you can opine on the text
Speaker 1: line and call about it as well. But I think
Speaker 1: it's a good one. We're melding the middle kind of
Speaker 1: here between the Raiders and the Niners. I know the
Speaker 1: Raiders are gone but it is preseason game number three
Speaker 1: and it was on my mind this morning, so we
Speaker 1: can give you that coming up next. Thanks to Jonas
Speaker 1: Fair and Bias Radio on a Monday. You're old friend
Speaker 1: John Lund with you only here on the Sports Leader.
Speaker 2: Sometimes he's fair, most of the time he's biased. Back
Speaker 2: at John Ln got fair and biased only on these
Speaker 2: Sports Leader.
Speaker 1: Hey, what's happening? Thanks joning us job lug with you.
Speaker 1: We appreciate hanging out with Fair and Bias Radio, your
Speaker 1: thoughts on anything that I might say that is overly
Speaker 1: compelling to you. Golden State, Lumber and Shogrin text line
Speaker 1: and that's the text way and the UMA guest line.
Speaker 1: Both are the same, whether it's your voyster text four
Speaker 1: and five eight away, camb Are four and five eight
Speaker 1: away five six two seven. We got the YouTube feed
Speaker 1: up as well, so you can see my bright, shiny
Speaker 1: face and feel better about the way that you look.
Speaker 1: So hit us up on the YouTube channel as well,
Speaker 1: and this is where we will put the big poll today.
Speaker 1: So momentarily we'll get you a big poll question. But
Speaker 1: if you just joined us. Unfortunately, the big story of
Speaker 1: the day Jed York pled no contest criminal charges after
Speaker 1: being arrested on suspicion of engaging in prostitution in Ohio
Speaker 1: over the weekend. According to court documents, that was pled down.
Speaker 1: And then I just saw a story where he was
Speaker 1: arrested at something called the Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community
Speaker 1: and they're showing a picture of this place. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: amazing to me. But anyway, there you go, a mobile
Speaker 1: home park. Not Jed York's proudest moment. We'll see how
Speaker 1: he responds to all this thing. He shall survive. There
Speaker 1: are worse things, obviously that you can do. Robert Kraft,
Speaker 1: I'm sure was more embarrassed. He has survived that. Hugh
Speaker 1: Grant in Hollywood has survived this. I'm sure Jed's got
Speaker 1: smart people around him who will say, this is what
Speaker 1: you need to do. You fall on the sword, you
Speaker 1: say you're sorry, you wish for privacy at this time
Speaker 1: so you can get your family together, etc. Etc. Etc.
Speaker 1: Is it embarrassed and yes? Is it a distraction of
Speaker 1: the players? No?
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 1: By the way, for those who are wondering, I've got
Speaker 1: a lot of this on the text line. I have
Speaker 1: not engaged in prostitution, even though that you think that
Speaker 1: might be something I would do. Many people have suggested
Speaker 1: that on the text line. No I have not. But anyway,
Speaker 1: he shall get past this. That is the big story
Speaker 1: of the day that everybody is buzzing about. So I
Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that you knew of that because
Speaker 1: you're wondering to yourself, why isn't he talking about it?
Speaker 1: So there you go, that's the big story of the day.
Speaker 1: All right, it is time for your big poll. And
Speaker 1: I told you this before. I woke up today thinking
Speaker 1: of many things, and I thought, you know, it still
Speaker 1: is Raiders Niners. It is not just crossing the bridge.
Speaker 1: It is not the fights like they had at Candlestick
Speaker 1: Park back in what preseason game in twenty eleven and
Speaker 1: they stopped playing each other for years. It is not
Speaker 1: January first of what twenty four So it's been what
Speaker 1: two three years since that game happened that Jared Stidham
Speaker 1: was the starting quarterback for the Raiders. It's not going
Speaker 1: back to any of the games years years ago between
Speaker 1: the Raiders and the Niners or anything like that. It's
Speaker 1: not that I've been to the games in Vegas against
Speaker 1: the Niners. They're not the same. They don't really even
Speaker 1: have a black hole. They've got like a club in
Speaker 1: there going to a Raiders game when people are getting
Speaker 1: out of limousines and it's women from hotels and clubs
Speaker 1: and all those kind of things. It's not the same
Speaker 1: kind of an atmosphere. It's completely different of those things.
Speaker 1: So I'm not trying to compare Raiders Niners back in
Speaker 1: the old days. But I do think this is a
Speaker 1: good poll question. So again, we'll put this up on
Speaker 1: YouTube and then you can opine on it both either
Speaker 1: on the text line, call in line, or you can
Speaker 1: start the chat in YouTube as well, however you would like.
Speaker 1: Regardless of all of that, it is time for today's
Speaker 1: big poll question.
Speaker 2: Grab this hole, Time for that daily poll.
Speaker 1: It's my poll.
Speaker 2: This is fair and biased on the sports leader.
Speaker 6: Dude, grab my poll.
Speaker 8: The Autumn Whim is the Pirate, Yes, Blustering in from
Speaker 8: sea with a rollicking song. He sweeps along, swaggering voicelessly.
Speaker 8: His face is weather beaten. He wears a hooded sash
Speaker 8: with a silver hap about his hand and a bristling
Speaker 8: black mustache. He growls as he storms the country, A
Speaker 8: villain big and bold, and the trees all shaped and
Speaker 8: quiver and quake as he robs them of their gold.
Speaker 8: The Autumn Wind is a Raider pillaging just for fun.
Speaker 8: Now he'll knocked you around and upside down and laugh
Speaker 8: when he's conquered and won.
Speaker 1: I don't care if you're a if you're a Nighters fan,
Speaker 1: that is cool. Like, you can hate the Raiders all
Speaker 1: you want.
Speaker 5: You can.
Speaker 1: You can be a complete other side of the rivalry.
Speaker 1: You can say it's not a rivalry anymore. You can
Speaker 1: you can be happy the Raiders are gone whatever whatever
Speaker 1: this is among all songs, and we could have a
Speaker 1: conversation about this as well. I don't think there's anything better.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything better. I know that the
Speaker 1: Niners have songs and they do Bang Bang Niner Gang
Speaker 1: and all the different things that they do. Probably nothing
Speaker 1: better than that on all the sports. I mean, that's awesome.
Speaker 1: The Autumn Wind is a Raider. The Autumn Wind is awesome,
Speaker 1: whether you're a Raider fan or not. So here's the question.
Speaker 1: Forty nine Ers and Raiders coming up for the final
Speaker 1: preseason game. Forty nine Ers can steal one Raider in
Speaker 1: their prime. The forty nine Ers can steal one Raider
Speaker 1: in their prime. That is today's pole question. These are
Speaker 1: the four I went with. Now, I could have went
Speaker 1: old school, but a lot of times if you go
Speaker 1: old school, our younger demographic doesn't remember those guys or
Speaker 1: didn't see him play. So I'm gonna keep it as
Speaker 1: modern as I can, but yet also have respect to
Speaker 1: the past. So here's what I did. You can steal
Speaker 1: Charles Woodson, Max Crosby, Tim Brown, or Howie Long in
Speaker 1: their prime. I was thinking about Gene Upshaw. I know
Speaker 1: that if Derek Papa is listening or Greg bob Bis,
Speaker 1: you don't have Gen Upshaw. You don't have you don't
Speaker 1: have our show. I didn't put Ken Stabler up there
Speaker 1: because the Niners through this erab had so many good quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: I could have put up Khalil Mack. I could have
Speaker 1: up Lester Hayes. I could have up Mike Haynes. You know,
Speaker 1: I could have put up Marcus Allen, but he was
Speaker 1: more of an LA Raider. So I'm just saying Oakland Raiders, Woodson, Crosby, Brown, Long.
Speaker 1: Those are the four I chose. You can go completely
Speaker 1: off the board on that, but that is today's big
Speaker 1: pole question, So head on over to our YouTube page.
Speaker 1: You can be our YouTube page and you can vote
Speaker 1: on that. Jacob will be keeping the tabs on that.
Speaker 1: And again you can tell me I'm stupid to go, Hey,
Speaker 1: you should have this guy. That's fine, that's already happened.
Speaker 1: I think in this poll. We did a poll last
Speaker 1: week and I put brock Perty in there. Oh, it
Speaker 1: was the you're stuck in four hours of Bay Area traffic,
Speaker 1: which I was like two weeks ago, and who would
Speaker 1: you like to ride with? And if I can do this?
Speaker 1: Off my ted, it was off my head. It was
Speaker 1: Steph Kittle, Kruco and Purty and Perty got an embarrassing
Speaker 1: amount as far as low amount of votes, So I
Speaker 1: shouldn't have put Purtty on there. So I'm not always
Speaker 1: right clearly spo. But I put Woodson, Charles Wodson, Max Crosby,
Speaker 1: Tim Brown, Howie Long. Lots of other Raiders could have
Speaker 1: been on there. If you want to hit me up
Speaker 1: on the text line four five eighty eight five sixty
Speaker 1: two seven, tell me who I missed out on and
Speaker 1: who you rather would steal. But the forty nine ers
Speaker 1: can steal one Raider in their prime. With it being
Speaker 1: the preseason game, this week between the Raiders and the Niners,
Speaker 1: who would you steal? Go to YouTube and vote on that,
Speaker 1: or hit me up on the text line of the
Speaker 1: phone line at four to five eighty eight. CANBR four
Speaker 1: five eighty eight five sixty two seven and tell me
Speaker 1: who you would choose and why. That is today's poll question,
Speaker 1: and we will keep you up to date on everything.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into a conversation, a national conversation.
Speaker 1: We'll play some of these cuts coming up next. I'm
Speaker 1: really interested in this just I found it intriguing. I
Speaker 1: do a national show on the weekends both Saturday and
Speaker 1: Sunday for Westwood one Sports, and you can hear it
Speaker 1: on K and BR if you're up that late. It
Speaker 1: is what eight to midnight on Saturdays and Sundays. And
Speaker 1: I talked a lot about this on the weekend. Tons
Speaker 1: of response back from it, so I wanted to bring
Speaker 1: it on the show and get a thought on what
Speaker 1: Bay Area fans thought of this. You can never attack
Speaker 1: the home fans. Deshaun Watson found that out, and then
Speaker 1: this morning, crazy enough, he was named starting quarterback of
Speaker 1: the Browns. I want to give you that thought coming
Speaker 1: up next. Keep them going on the poll question and
Speaker 1: I'll read the best text. We'll do it all coming
Speaker 1: up next hour number two of the program Fair and
Speaker 1: Biased only here on the Sports Rate the Esports Leader.
Speaker 2: Fair and Biased comes to you live from that k
Speaker 2: nb R. Casino Matrix jackpots, studios, casino metricks, Progressive jackpots
Speaker 2: are here. Where are you just drop in money covering Gambler.
Speaker 1: Thanks so much for joining us. Hope you had an
Speaker 1: amazing weekend. It is Fair and Bias Radio. We love
Speaker 1: when you get involved in the show. That's how it works.
Speaker 1: At four one, five anyway, games out of four and
Speaker 1: five eighty eight, five, six to seven. We just gave
Speaker 1: you a poll question Raiders and Niners this week. I
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm gonna do Raiders Niners all week
Speaker 1: on poll questions. It just struck me this morning. I
Speaker 1: was thinking of the autumn wind. I was thinking of
Speaker 1: George Kittle's twenty eighteen tip catch for seventy one yards.
Speaker 1: I was thinking of standing on that sideline on the
Speaker 1: Levi Stadium big board and had a raider's helmet and
Speaker 1: niner's helmet. Back in twenty eighteen, both teams weren't very good,
Speaker 1: and I thought to myself, this is a crummy way
Speaker 1: for this thing to end. And Vegas is not the same,
Speaker 1: the rivalry is not the same. I've not only covered
Speaker 1: a preseason game there. A couple of years ago covered
Speaker 1: the Jan one game in the regular season that was
Speaker 1: actually a really good game. It's just it's just weird now.
Speaker 1: But the pole question is very simple. This is what
Speaker 1: I was thinking about. You can go to YouTube, or
Speaker 1: you can give us your thoughts on the text line
Speaker 1: as well. And again in the text line is the
Speaker 1: Golden State Lumber and Showroom text line and eightaway kN
Speaker 1: to b are Boom a guest line, which is you
Speaker 1: actually talking four five eightyway five six two seven. You
Speaker 1: could take one Raider in their prime. I put Howie
Speaker 1: Long up there, Tim Brown up there as well. Charles
Speaker 1: Woodson is there, and Max Crosby for the newer crowd.
Speaker 1: Who would you take in their prime? For the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers, I could have taken Ken Stabler. The Niners
Speaker 1: have had enough quarterbacks, so I don't think anyone would
Speaker 1: build that. I could have gone old school. I know
Speaker 1: Derek Pop is screaming right now if he's listening. Where's
Speaker 1: Gen Upshaw? Where's artshell, I get it. He could have
Speaker 1: taken one of those guys would have been totally fine.
Speaker 1: So give us your thoughts as well. From the canb
Speaker 1: our Casino Matrix, Progressive Jackpots Studios Casino Matrix Progressive Jackpots
Speaker 1: are here. Where are you? Just drop in at one
Speaker 1: eight hundred Gambler and one thing before I get into
Speaker 1: this Deshaun Watson conversation, Jed York will get past this day.
Speaker 1: But my entire feed is just him in this orange
Speaker 1: jumpsuit and I can just I'm looking at the picture
Speaker 1: of it and I'm thinking to himself what he's thinking.
Speaker 1: And he's got the typical five o'clock shadow thing, and
Speaker 1: he's just like staring at the camera like can we
Speaker 1: please get this over? Just prutal, just brutal. Man. I've
Speaker 1: been there, not in this situation, not as high profile,
Speaker 1: this two shell pass, as my father used to tell me.
Speaker 1: But man, for a day, as the news cycle just
Speaker 1: focuses on this, he's just sitting there, going, please, someone
Speaker 1: do something to take the spotlight away from me. And
Speaker 1: we haven't seen it yet and it's going to take
Speaker 1: a heck of a thing to do. But again, if
Speaker 1: you did not hear the news the owner of the
Speaker 1: forty nine ers and they applied these down but a prostitution.
Speaker 1: The actual story is coming out that it was one
Speaker 1: hundred and forty dollars at a trailer park in East Palestine,
Speaker 1: Ohio is what they're calling the place. Have no idea,
Speaker 1: but that is the story. And so it will come
Speaker 1: across her feet at some point if it already hasn't,
Speaker 1: because I can't go anywhere on my social media feeds
Speaker 1: and not see that picture of its. Feel horrible for
Speaker 1: the guy, but this too shall pass, all right as
Speaker 1: far as the As far as football news is concerned,
Speaker 1: As I said, I do a national show on the
Speaker 1: weekends and it does air on canby Are and it's
Speaker 1: on Western Run Sports and on Friday Night. When Deshaun
Speaker 1: Watson continue to play poorly as he mostly has as
Speaker 1: a member of the Browns, he's either been hurt or
Speaker 1: played poorly, and to kind of review this thing if
Speaker 1: he hadn't stayed up on it. Obviously, he had off
Speaker 1: the field issues when he was with the Texans. His
Speaker 1: last year with the Texans thirty three touchdowns, seven interceptions,
Speaker 1: and while he was never Patrick Mahomes, he was up
Speaker 1: in some rarefied air as one of the best young
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league. If you've forgotten, then he has
Speaker 1: the issues he sits out an entire season for Houston,
Speaker 1: the desperation that Cleveland has as the worst friend as
Speaker 1: far as quarterbacks are concerned, in NFL history. And if
Speaker 1: you don't believe me, just go back. They've got that
Speaker 1: guy who's got the the jersey and it's just name
Speaker 1: played after name played after name plate, whether it's Brandon
Speaker 1: Weeden or Johnny Manziel or Brady Quinn or Tim Couch
Speaker 1: or et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1: It's got like forty names on it now. And so
Speaker 1: the frustration, I'm sure of Browns fans who could rationalize
Speaker 1: the fact that they could have someone like this on
Speaker 1: their team. But we do that as sports fans. We
Speaker 1: rationalize things, Hey, it's not that bad, that's not that bad.
Speaker 1: That's not that bad. That's not that bad. And then
Speaker 1: you know, when it happens on another team, you're like,
Speaker 1: how could your team do that? But I understand Jimmy
Speaker 1: has them, the owner of the Browns, why he did
Speaker 1: it because he was desperate. Would a lot of teams
Speaker 1: do this even if they were that desperate. No, But
Speaker 1: no team is as desperate at the position is the Browns.
Speaker 1: So that's kind of the backdrop. And oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: they gave up three first round picks, and they sold
Speaker 1: their soul and they did all these things. And now
Speaker 1: a desperate fan base who has seen him get hurt
Speaker 1: a couple of times and when he did play, play
Speaker 1: poorly and scratch their heads and goes, where was that
Speaker 1: guy in Houston? Where was the guy who was one
Speaker 1: of the top quarterbacks in the league, and at twenty
Speaker 1: six or twenty seven, was you know, being mentioned along
Speaker 1: with not quite as high as Patrick Mahomes, but he
Speaker 1: was in that rarefied air. He's nowhere to be found
Speaker 1: in Cleveland, even if you could get past the things
Speaker 1: that he did off the field. So he has another
Speaker 1: poor showing. He insured our Sanders going back and forth
Speaker 1: for the number one job in Cleveland, even though both
Speaker 1: will probably be out and they will draft a quarterback
Speaker 1: probably in the top five and twenty twenty seven and
Speaker 1: what's supposed to be a really, really good draft. But
Speaker 1: that aside for just a second, So he's got about
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty million dollars in dead cap space. Remember,
Speaker 1: he got a guaranteed contract for two hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: million dollars and as nowhere near played up to that
Speaker 1: on or off the field. So with that as the backdrop,
Speaker 1: here is Deshaun Watson after the game, after being booed.
Speaker 1: He's asked by a reporter what it felt like being
Speaker 1: booed at home after another poor performance in the preseason
Speaker 1: game against the Bills.
Speaker 10: I mean, I have no reaction. I think the biggest
Speaker 10: thing is I think you guys know too, and I
Speaker 10: think the whole world knows. It has nothing to do
Speaker 10: about the performance. It's a little bit personal than that.
Speaker 10: So I think that's, ah, it's a disrespectful thing. So yeah,
Speaker 10: I mean, I'm gonna keep whatever I feel with me
Speaker 10: and my family internally on how I feel about that,
Speaker 10: and yeah, just move on.
Speaker 3: But don't you think that, Shawn, that that winning and
Speaker 3: playing better would eliminate some of that bullying?
Speaker 10: Last time I played on this field, I told my
Speaker 10: achilles in that same fan base, they cheered when I
Speaker 10: got hurt. So is that does that have to do it?
Speaker 10: But does that have to do with anything about performance.
Speaker 10: When a person get hurt, especially for your own city,
Speaker 10: and they cheer, does that make you regret coming here? No,
Speaker 10: I don't regret anything in my life.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 10: I think the loryer put me through situations for a reason,
Speaker 10: so I don't. I don't regret anything at all. But
Speaker 10: you know, I had different thoughts on how it was
Speaker 10: going to be, but you know, it is what it is.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 10: Sometimes you know the table's turned, and I'm patient enough
Speaker 10: because I'm a child of God to you know, wait
Speaker 10: for that time and change. So I'm not chipping on it.
Speaker 10: I'm not chipping on it.
Speaker 1: All right. A couple of things jump out. I've never
Speaker 1: regretted anything in my life. Probably not something you should
Speaker 1: say if you're Deshaun Watson attacking the home crowd, especially
Speaker 1: given the fact that you have nowhere near performed up
Speaker 1: to that level, and the and the fans kind of
Speaker 1: rationalized bringing you aboard, even though it was an embarrassment
Speaker 1: to the organization, the entire league to get to give
Speaker 1: to not only give him another chance at that point,
Speaker 1: but to give him the contract that they gave him. So,
Speaker 1: first of all, never regretting anything in your life, I
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't use those terms. And then the second thing
Speaker 1: is he talked about how it's not performance related. We
Speaker 1: can as fans rationalize anything if you play well enough.
Speaker 1: There's an old term talent versus tolerance. If you're really
Speaker 1: really talented, we will tolerate a lot. Fans will, organizations, will,
Speaker 1: leagues will, et cetera, et cetera. You're making us money,
Speaker 1: and that's not even a sports thing, it's a life thing.
Speaker 1: If you're a really bad person, but you're making a
Speaker 1: lot of money for the company, they will tolerate you.
Speaker 1: It happens in politics, business, sports, all walks of life.
Speaker 1: Talent versus tolerance people will do. That's fine, you're not
Speaker 1: talented enough for the Browns to now tolerate you. But
Speaker 1: the biggest problem with them now is they don't want
Speaker 1: to eat one hundred and twenty million dollars this year.
Speaker 1: Next year they would eat thirty five, followed by fifty
Speaker 1: one or excuse me, fifty two. So they're gonna eat
Speaker 1: eighty six to eighty seven million dollars probably next year
Speaker 1: when they draft a quarterback in the top five to
Speaker 1: replace you and Shdorra Sanders. And then that was last night,
Speaker 1: and then excuse me, that was Friday night. And then
Speaker 1: this morning Todd Monk and the head coach of the
Speaker 1: Browns names Deshaun Watson the starter. Watson then comes out
Speaker 1: and says, quote, I understand the frustration and moving forward,
Speaker 1: I just want to focus on football, making sure that
Speaker 1: I'm putting the best product out there. So we'll see.
Speaker 1: Because what he I'm sure knows by now because somebody
Speaker 1: had sat him down. But he's nearly thirty one years old.
Speaker 1: This comes with the position, and it's pretty simple. I
Speaker 1: think every quarterback would know this. Steve Young when we
Speaker 1: would have him on lots of times, Steve would always
Speaker 1: say this, it doesn't matter as the quarterback. This is
Speaker 1: part of your paycheck. As the quarterback, you have to
Speaker 1: take responsibility. You threw a pass behind somebody, it got
Speaker 1: tipped up in the air and it was intercepted. Maybe
Speaker 1: that receiver ran the wrong route. Your fault. After the game,
Speaker 1: you say, you know what, I got to be better.
Speaker 1: I got to make that pass. It's got to be
Speaker 1: ahead of the guy. Like even if it's not your fault,
Speaker 1: even if a guy ran a wrong route. You know,
Speaker 1: we don't know a lot of times as fans and media,
Speaker 1: where was that supposed to be? The quarterback takes the responsibility.
Speaker 1: That's part of the big paycheck. That was a bad pass.
Speaker 1: It was on me. And then he goes later and
Speaker 1: he talks to the receiver and say, you screwed that up.
Speaker 1: But we're not going to make that public. Aldashawn Watson
Speaker 1: had to do after that game after being booed, even though, yeah,
Speaker 1: is it cool to be booed on the field after
Speaker 1: you tore your achilles heel? No, it's not, but it's
Speaker 1: part of the position. So regardless of that happening, after
Speaker 1: you play poorly, after a frustrated fan base that thought
Speaker 1: you were going to save the day and just put
Speaker 1: you as another notch on that forty names of failed
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in Cleveland, you just got to say, look, man,
Speaker 1: I gotta be better. Yeah I was five to twelve
Speaker 1: in in an interception. That's not good enough. I've got
Speaker 1: to be It's really really simple. If you're a quarterback
Speaker 1: in this league, brock Purty does it. He's not thirty
Speaker 1: one years old, he hasn't been around as long as that.
Speaker 1: But would could you ever see a situation which Brock
Speaker 1: Purdy would go in front of a microphone and in
Speaker 1: any way, shape or form, whether it was something like
Speaker 1: this of being booed, which I don't believe that. Again,
Speaker 1: I think different fan bases are different. I can understand
Speaker 1: what the Browns fan base is going through. I don't
Speaker 1: think the Niners have been to that frustration level, even
Speaker 1: when it was Jim tom Sula followed by Chip Kelly
Speaker 1: followed by you know, an end of Harbaugh getting frustrated.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's kind of a West Coast thing.
Speaker 1: Northeast is like that, Midwest is like that, the southern
Speaker 1: college football is like that. There can be a lot
Speaker 1: of venom, and I don't think we're like that. So
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's completely relatable, but it's just
Speaker 1: one of those things where Deshaun Watson goes after the
Speaker 1: fan base. And when I was watching that over the weekend,
Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself, no, no, no, no, no no,
Speaker 1: You've gotta be smarter. You've got to be able to
Speaker 1: say to yourself, you know what, it's on me, one
Speaker 1: hundred percent on me, it's not on the on the fans.
Speaker 1: I understand the booing. I understand the frustration I understand
Speaker 1: the years of the quarterbacks not being very good. That's
Speaker 1: just what you gotta do. Whether it's fans booing, whether
Speaker 1: it's a player running a wrong route, it's part of
Speaker 1: the built in, built into the pie of what a
Speaker 1: quarterback has to do is just kind of take those things.
Speaker 1: So give me your thoughts on that. And the problem
Speaker 1: that Cleveland finds themselves in is they can't really cut them.
Speaker 1: So I guess this morning they make they make the
Speaker 1: decision that, look, we're in a spot where we can't
Speaker 1: even really cut this guy, so this is what we're
Speaker 1: gonna do. So give me your thoughts on that. Four
Speaker 1: and five eightyweight can be our four and five eightyweight
Speaker 1: five six two seven. That was the big national story
Speaker 1: over the weekend was Deshaun Watson and how he reacted.
Speaker 1: And now he's been named the starter, which is absolutely bananas.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if a team can botch a
Speaker 1: quarterback situation worse than at A lot of people were
Speaker 1: saying this morning that, and they were talking about on ANESPN,
Speaker 1: like you can't name him the starter, maybe you're gonna
Speaker 1: have to sit him in the entire season. And now
Speaker 1: he's being named the starter. He's going to get booed again.
Speaker 3: Just so you know.
Speaker 1: All right, let me check in with Jacob. Hit up
Speaker 1: the YouTube channel and check out the poll question again.
Speaker 1: You're a Niners fan, you're taking on the Raiders this weekend.
Speaker 1: You can take one Raider in their prime. Who would
Speaker 1: you take? Do we have an early leader in the
Speaker 1: clubhouse on YouTube on the big poll question today? Early
Speaker 1: leader in the clubhouse on YouTube? Do we have an
Speaker 1: early leader on the on the poll question today? Because
Speaker 1: I'm checking out the text line nine one six says
Speaker 1: Howie Long and it's not even close. Eight three to one,
Speaker 1: Charles Woodson. If we're going on the list, but eight
Speaker 1: three to one has a different one, give me some
Speaker 1: Jack Tatum, Jack Tatum, that'd be nice. Yeah, I could
Speaker 1: see that. Jerry Rice for Elevant. He was already a guy.
Speaker 1: Ray Guy should be on the list from the nine
Speaker 1: one to six. He changed football. I'm not like Al Davis.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put you can you can look at
Speaker 1: the guests. You can look at the list right now
Speaker 1: and say you can take this guy, you can take
Speaker 1: that guy. No offense to Ray Guy. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: go with a punter five three zero says yet the
Speaker 1: best voice of all time, John Facenda. When we played
Speaker 1: the Autumn Wind, Even if you don't like the Raiders,
Speaker 1: you had to admit that was pretty pretty. That was
Speaker 1: pretty good. So we'll get an update on the poll
Speaker 1: question of the day. Go onto YouTube and the pole
Speaker 1: question is very simple. You can steal one Raider with
Speaker 1: the Raiders and the Niners to go in preseason for
Speaker 1: the final preseason game. You can steal one Raider. Who
Speaker 1: would you steal? Give us your thoughts on that as well.
Speaker 1: All right, I told you I was gonna do one
Speaker 1: giant segment today and it has nothing to do with
Speaker 1: the weekend. It has nothing to do with how Raphael
Speaker 1: Devers was received in Boston. It has everything to do
Speaker 1: with where they should be versus where they are right now.
Speaker 1: Give me your thoughts on that as we will embark
Speaker 1: on one giant segment one alone. Give me your thoughts
Speaker 1: on it as well. Text line is wide open, phone
Speaker 1: lines or one I open. We will do one giant
Speaker 1: segment today on the Golden State Lumber and Showroom text
Speaker 1: line and on the UMA guest line at four wine,
Speaker 1: five eight Away canb our four and five eighty eight
Speaker 1: five six two seven. We'll give you that coming up next.
Speaker 1: We still got sound to play a couple of guests
Speaker 1: on the list that we have SODO five, we'll give
Speaker 1: you that. We'll update everything. We'll do that coming up next.
