00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Here's the snap. It's looking to them of TV for

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: the plylt that he's got it. Brazzle Tasole touchdown, two

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 1: stands and the Texans go in front. There is no

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 1: off season for your buston Texans game days. Every day,

5
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: we had a lot of energy and we brought a

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:23,799
Speaker 1: lot of spark for this organization. Five nights a week.

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: They hits keep on coming. The Texans say they have it,

8
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: then they go, no, it's Texans All Exans. What's going on?

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: Every buddy, Welcome into a Wednesday edition Texans All Access.

10
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: I'm saying that because I completely thought tonight was Thursday.

11
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: Thursday is different because we have the general Mark drives

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: the show, and I came up to my zoom room

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: expecting that to be the case. I went, wait, what

14
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: day is it? Oh it's Wednesday. Oh that means I'm

15
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: driving the show tonight, which is fun. I'm John Harris,

16
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: Football Analyst, sideline reporter along I had the vox the

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: voice of the Texans, Mark Vanimir Mark. We found the

18
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: culprit to my issues from last night and he lives

19
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: within my house. Oh what is it? Oh who is it? It?

20
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: Let me guess your son? Yeah, yeah, my son is

21
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: my I t guy, and my son handles everything it

22
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: wise in this entire house. And he happened to unplug

23
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: my ethernet because he thought it was plugged into something else.

24
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: Forgot that I was on ethernet up in the zoom room,

25
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: and that is why I was unable to join you

26
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: for the first four or five minutes last night. Yeah,

27
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: so it was it was unplugged somewhere else in the house,

28
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 1: not from the unit itself. Yeah, yeah, exactly, hate when

29
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: that because I tried all that. I even went down

30
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: at some point and unplugged ethernet and plugged it back in. Well,

31
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: I plugged it back into something that wasn't plugged in,

32
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: if that makes sense. So either way, I don't know.

33
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: We got a lot to do tonight because it is

34
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: a Wednesday, Mark, Are you ready for what you remember? Went?

00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: I think you will absolutely love this one. I think

36
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: this is just my my gut here my gut tells

37
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: me that you will love this one because there is

38
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: one team that you sports hate wise more than any other.

39
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: Is well, there are a lot of teams like sports

40
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: hate one, Cults is the one more than any other.

41
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: That is the one YUK Yukon. Oh, I hate Yukon

42
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: so much. But you know, the one thing I like

43
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 1: about Yukon is Sean Pendergast's dad was the ad there

44
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: and so I really like him. So it kind of

45
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: makes me. I respect Yukon, Johnny, but I hate Yukon

46
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: because I don't want to get into the story. I

47
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: went to Boston University, I worked at U MASS, I

48
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: worked at Miami. Yukon was always the enemy wherever I went,

49
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: and I hate them like poison. Thank you. Okay, So

50
00:02:54,320 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: Yukon sports, hate Colts for sure, Patriots absolutely, What else

51
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: is it? Those three? And that's it that those are

52
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: big ones. I have a healthy hate for the Titans,

53
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, if they're good, Johnny. I mean, look,

54
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:16,119
Speaker 1: I've I've never hated the Jacks, never hated them. I've

55
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: hated some of my time there at the end of

56
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: a Sunday afternoon, like Hail Mary in twenty ten. Yeah,

57
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 1: that was a really bad one two thousand and eight

58
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: overtime loss against David Garrard. That was ugly. Two shop

59
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: through for like three hundred that day. Trying to get

60
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: off the schneide of the Hurricane Ike season start went

61
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: to Owen three. Rosencopter was the following week. Hated that one.

62
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: But you know, I've had a lot of good times

63
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville two some of the other cities. But yeah,

64
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: the Titans. I have a pretty healthy hatred for them. Yeah.

65
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: I think my mind is it starts with Harvard. There's absolutely,

66
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: without question, total and complete sports hate for Harvard. Then

67
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: I would the Patriots are up there the tight I'll

68
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: tell you this, I probably hate the Titans more than

69
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: I hate the Colts. And what yeah, I probably hate

70
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: the Titans one of the Colts. Now, some of that

71
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: is the fact that the Titans are the old Oilers

72
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: and oh there's where my team growing up. So that's

73
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: that's part of it. But I don't can I say that?

74
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: Can I? I could say this? Their fans are obnoxiously,

75
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: oh though the worst, they're the worst, especially after having

76
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: the run that they did in the playoffs. This uh,

77
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: this past season twenty nineteen, which seems so long ago

78
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: and yet really was just last season. They're oh, I

79
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: mean they're convinced the Titans are going, Oh, we're in

80
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: running back mode. We're in running back but we're we're

81
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: bringing back Henry. He's gonna, he's gonna sign a deal.

82
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna run it back. We're gonna. You were nine

83
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: to seven last year, bro. But there have been so

84
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: many Titans fans. They're they're incredibly obnoxious, and I'll give

85
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: you I'll give you the other one. This is more

86
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: about the fans, and unfortunately they've been so good that

87
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: you can't really tell them anything. Is Ohio State fan.

88
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: Ohio State fans the worst, the absolute and complete and

89
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: total worst. And a lot of that has to do

90
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: with covering college football because you can never mention college football.

91
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: You can't see anything good about Alabama. You can't see

92
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: anything good about God, about Michigan, forget that, forget that

93
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: you say anything with any sort of ancillary reference to

94
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: Ohio State and Ohio State fan is on sports haite

95
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: Ohio State fans, that is that's my sports haite. But

96
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: the Titans for me over the Colts. But I'm glad

97
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: you brought the Colts or I brought the Colts, because

98
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: that's gonna be our theme to what you remember Wednesday,

99
00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 1: because those games against the Colts. I think you're that's

100
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: your best every Sunday. But I always feel like when

101
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: it's a game against the Colts. You're you. You take

102
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: it up a notch. Oh, you always take it up

103
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: a notch. Yes, yeah, those were games against the Yeah,

104
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: those are special. Those are special. Hatred because of the hatred,

105
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: I just I feel it and it's real. And look,

106
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: I like Matt Taylor's a voice of the cults. Nothing.

107
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, but it's it's just the misery, you

108
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: know it was. It was just so cement to the

109
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: foundation is strong with all those years of manning. But

110
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: we'll get into it in the next segment. Yeah, we'll

111
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: do that. So what you remember Wednesday. In the next segment,

112
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: we'll go around the league and actually we're gonna start

113
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 1: going around a league with a number of things that

114
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: have happened last out well I guess last few hours. Yeah,

115
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: because the franchise tag deadline was today. Now, the Texans

116
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: did not have a franchised player last year. We watched

117
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 1: this deadline like a hawk because Jeveon Clowney was the

118
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: franchise player. We know what happened to him. He eventually

119
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: gets traded to the Seattle Seahawks and heat right now

120
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: as a man without a team. But that's a different

121
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: story for a different week. But the franchise tag movement, situation, contracts, etc.

122
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: Got off to a start last night yesterday at some point,

123
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: and Mark, I don't know that we had a chance

124
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: to talk about this, but it felt like everybody's signing

125
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: or in the mix for a signing today for a

126
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: franchise tag. There was some connection to the Texans, mainly

127
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: we play these guys at some point yesterday and I

128
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: so badly want to see the Chiefs books because I'm

129
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: not sure how the Chiefs pulled it off. But the

130
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: Chiefs signed Chris Jones, the player they franchised to a

131
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: four year, eighty five million dollar deal. Mark. They gave

132
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: a guy five hundred million dollars over ten years. Then

133
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: they gave a guy eighty five million over four They're

134
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: already paying Travis Kelsey, Tyreek Hill, they got deals years ago.

135
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: They're pairing Eric Fisher, Mitchell Schwartz. They paid Tyrant Matthew

136
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: forty two over three. I think it was Mark. I

137
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: don't know what salary cap the Chiefs have, but I

138
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: don't know how they fit Chris Jones back underneath that.

139
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't know how they've done it. This irritated me

140
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: more than anything that has happened in the last forty

141
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: eight hours from a football perspective, in the fact that

142
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: Chris Jones just signed back with the Kansas City Chiefs

143
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: and now he's there for the next four years, it's fascinating.

144
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: But the fact that you don't have to pay mahomes

145
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: a lot right away, the Jones deal does fit in

146
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,719
Speaker 1: because you look at you look at the way it's

147
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: spread out. Look, they're still paying flat Frank Clark a

148
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: lot of money, right they just picked Frank acquisition chief

149
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins. Is he making seventeen million? Is that that's

150
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: the hit? That's the hit? So Tyreek Hill seventeen million hit,

151
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: Tyrn Matthew sixteen million hit. They're paying a lot of

152
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: guys a lot of money. But you know why not

153
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: if you're them, because you're just you're running here, You're

154
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: going for the run. You're you're going for it again.

155
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: Let's let's I mean, if I were them, I'd want

156
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: to do it too. You know, you've got a good squad.

157
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: Let's try to run it back. But we'll see how

158
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 1: the running back thing goes. Because hey, we all know

159
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: that a title run, you know, over the hall of

160
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: a regular season, which is not that many games, but

161
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: over the hall of a regular season, you know you

162
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: can put together nine ten wins, eleven twelve maybe, and

163
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: you know it's a play here, play there. But a

164
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: play here, a play there in January knocks you out

165
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: of the postseason, right, So we all know what a

166
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 1: fine line it is when you look at the Titans run,

167
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: the Chiefs run all of it. The Texans obviously had

168
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: that bizarre one for the Ages, weird game against the Chiefs,

169
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: but look at the Buffalo game. Fine line. You know,

170
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: play here, play there. You're you're sitting home after that week.

171
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: So it's you know, easier said than done to get back.

172
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: But if you have a good squad, why not make

173
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: another run at it and hope your quarterback stays healthy

174
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: to the whole year this time and especially in January. Well,

175
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: you know it helps. This is fascinating. We honestly, Mark

176
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: could do I think you and I could do an

177
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: hour show just on Patrick Mahomes contract and of itself.

178
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: The cap you know his cap hit is for the

179
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 1: twenty twenty season, When I wonder, okay, how are they

180
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: you know what his cap hit is? Cap hit, not

181
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: how much money he's gonna be putting in his wallet.

182
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: His cap hit for twenty twenty is five point three

183
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 1: million dollars on the Chief's roster. Players with a larger

184
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:56,119
Speaker 1: cap hit Damien Wilson, Laurent DuVernay, Tardif Alex okafor Anthony Hitchens.

185
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: These are all players that have higher cap hits. Of

186
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: course you mentioned the others Frank Clark, Tyry kill Tyr, Matthew, etc.

187
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: Five point three million dollars because of the way that

188
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: they structured that deal so that they absolutely could take

189
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 1: a run next year. Now, his cap hit goes up

190
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, it goes up significantly, but still

191
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: it's at a manageable, manageable twenty four point eight million.

192
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: It doesn't really become a really hindrance, you'd think until

193
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. And we think by twenty twenty three,

194
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: this cap is gonna be who knows what. By the

195
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: time we get to twenty twenty three, it could take

196
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: a significant dip over the next few years because of

197
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: what's happening with COVID, but it could go could go

198
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: back up. Maybe the NFL starts, you know, getting gambling money.

199
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: Maybe that starts happening, and that takes the cap back

200
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: up to a significant number, but it really doesn't start.

201
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty three it's a forty two point four million

202
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: dollar cap hit. Twenty twenty seven, it's a sixty million

203
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: dollar cap hit. That's far enough down the road. Nobody's

204
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: gonna care about it, um at this point. But a

205
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: sixty million dollars cap hit, oh gosh, you know, kicking

206
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: the can down the road, so to speak. I mean,

207
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: that's what happens in many of these situations. But look,

208
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: whenever we I always say the two things that at

209
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: least I don't like as a sports fan, and I

210
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: know some sports fans do like this stuff, but two

211
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: things I don't like contract negotiations and injuries, right because

212
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: to me, it's about what's on the field. Who's on

213
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 1: the field when you're taking them on. And no matter

214
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: how or what the Chiefs did. And I know Mahomes

215
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: got a lot of criticism for the deal, um that

216
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: it could have been better for him, especially early on,

217
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: but he's helping his team. And guess what you've got

218
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: to deal with. The Kansas City Chiefs fully loaded again

219
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: this year. This an experienced team that just went on

220
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: a title run, and who knows how that affects them,

221
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: especially in the environment that will ultimately play in. Is

222
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 1: it going to be a distraction? Is it not? How

223
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: will they handle it? And then our friends the Titans

224
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: who matched up with them in the AFC Championship game,

225
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: they made news today as well. They did and Mark,

226
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 1: I will be honest, I did not think this was happening.

227
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was happening. The Tennessee Titans have

228
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: agreed to terms with running back Derek Henry on a

229
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: four year deal worth fifty million dollars right before Wednesday's deadline.

230
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: He was the franchise player for the Titans. He ran

231
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 1: for fifteen hundred yards last year. We know about that.

232
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: He had two hundred and eleven yards against the Texans

233
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: in Week seventeen against the JV defense and that gave

234
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: him the rushing title. He then was phenomenal in the playoffs.

235
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: He is what the offense has built around. Mark was

236
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 1: your gut reaction when you saw the Henry had signed.

237
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: I thought good for him because when I look at

238
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: the deal and Johnny, I haven't done much comparison yet

239
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: to say Ezekiel Elliott's deal right, which was ninety million

240
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: for six years, twenty eight million guarantee, seven and a

241
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: half million signing bonus. All right, then you look at

242
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry guaranteed twenty five million and looks that's a

243
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: lot of money. Right, He's gonna get twenty five million

244
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: if he takes the tag, it would have been what

245
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: ten point two And then you have the unknown. You

246
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: could rip up a knee, never play again. It's not

247
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: gonna happen this time. He's gonna get twenty five million

248
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: and twelve million dollars signing bonus. Look I like it

249
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: for him, and I think it's pretty good for the

250
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: Titans too. We all know running backs don't have that

251
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: long a life buying large in this league. Everyone's gonna

252
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: point the Adrian Peterson and Frank or You're talking about

253
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: two of the all time greats right there. In longevity,

254
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: no question, and we could debate the other stuff. For

255
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: as far as Henry goes. The Titans are in pretty

256
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 1: good shape here. I think the bigger deal for them

257
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: not to zoom out too much is all right, you

258
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: have Henry, you know, have this incredible running back. Obviously

259
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: he's got to stay healthy. Everybody does, but you're so

260
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: tied to Ryan Tannehill, and I think that's that's a

261
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: bigger deal between these two guys and anything else you do,

262
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: that's it and they feel good about it. So good

263
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: for them, But I'm hoping as a textic it does

264
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: not work in Nashville. Yeah, you know, Mark's interesting to

265
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: look at the contracts. I'm looking at the Titans, you know,

266
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: looking at the Chiefs and looking at the Titans. The

267
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: Titans really aren't paying anybody. I mean, they're paying Tannio,

268
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: but it's not top of the market quarterback money, and

269
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: then paying lu on a left tackle. Malcolm Butler's getting

270
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: thirteen point three million and that was a mistake for them.

271
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: Stafol got twelve point three because he signed free agency,

272
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: and Buyard's getting what he's paid, what he's worth at

273
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: ten point ninily. Other than those are the cap hits.

274
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: They're not paying a bunch of guys, so it does

275
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: make sense that they could get Henry In on this

276
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: four year deal worth fifty million dollars. It's just do

277
00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: you do you learn from history or you doom to

278
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: repeat it? How many? How many running backs have we

279
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: seen on second contracts, especially one like Henry that is

280
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: a straight up running back, not not like McCaffrey who

281
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: is going to catch it and run it. I'm talking

282
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: straight up running back and a guy that takes a

283
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: pounding every time he plays the game. Given him four

284
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: more years. I just have not seen teams have success

285
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: with that second contract for a running back, and I

286
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: just I imagine that the Titans were I didn't think

287
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: they were gonna do it. I didn't good for them.

288
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: I will I will admit this. Even though I do

289
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: not care for the Titans Mark, I do like Derrick Henry.

290
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: I like the way he goes about his business. He

291
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: is a humble guy. He's not a he's not a

292
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: braggadoc show guy. But he's been a really good leader

293
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: in her locker room. I hate having to face him,

294
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: but if there's if we've got to lose to somebody,

295
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: in some sense, I don't mind that guy getting the

296
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: credit because I think he is worth every dime. He

297
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: gives back to the city of Jacksonville, which he lives

298
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: in small town called you Lead just outside Jacksonville, So

299
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: he gives back to the town. So to me, Derreck

300
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: Henry is he he deserves it. And I'm glad for him.

301
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: I don't like it for us having to face that guy.

302
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: But like we said last night, as we talked about this,

303
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: there are just players that you have success against. There

304
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: are some players that you can't stop no matter what.

305
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: Every time Darren Sproles, as you said last night, steps

306
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 1: on the field against us, he has success no matter what.

307
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 1: But Derrick Henry we've had a lot of success against

308
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: minus week seventeen when we had a lot of guys

309
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: sitting out that game, sitting out the majority of that game,

310
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: where he piled up two hundred and eleven yards in

311
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: a win the Titans needed have to get into the playoffs.

312
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 1: So I'm happy for him, not so much for Titans fans,

313
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: and of course Titans fans being obnoxious today. Now they're

314
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: in complete and total, complete and total run it back mode. Well,

315
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: we've seen you've seen in the NFL. We've seen it

316
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: in years in the NFL. When you get to that

317
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: point of running back mode, sometimes you don't get there.

318
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 1: Now sometimes you don't. And everybody's calling them the darlings

319
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: of the AFC South or whatever. They're getting a lot

320
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: of love, a lot of picks to finish first look

321
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: with the running back position. We mentioned Elliott right, last

322
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: year wasn't a bad year for him. Average yards per

323
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: carry four and a half. That's healthy, right, But that's

324
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: the lowest total he's had in a full season for

325
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Year two, he didn't play the full season

326
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 1: four point one lowest yards per game. Again, not a disaster,

327
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: thirteen hundred and fifty seven yards. But the thing is,

328
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: when you pay a guy so much, you have to

329
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: keep going to them, you feel, and you know, as

330
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: opposed to some other teams where if you're not paying

331
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: running backs a ton of money, you might be like, Okay,

332
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: let's get the next guy in here that you know,

333
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it makes you stay with them longer.

334
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,199
Speaker 1: And again, do they last? Are they healthy? I mean,

335
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: Elliot last year played all sixteen games. Good for him,

336
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: but it didn't result to the playoff appearance for the Cowboys.

337
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna pin that on the running back performance,

338
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but you know you're making a

339
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: big investment. You want, you want full return cumulatively as

340
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: a team, and they didn't get it last year as

341
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: a squad and obviously Prescott didn't get done today. So

342
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,959
Speaker 1: that's another big story. Yeah, that is a big story.

343
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: Prescott almost apparently apparently almost got a deal done, but

344
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 1: he will be a franchise player. And I said this,

345
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: I was on le while ago, Mark just in Mississippi.

346
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: You're not talked off air earlier today and right after that,

347
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: I got on the air in Mississippi, and of course

348
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 1: they wanted to know what I thought about that, and

349
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: I was like, well, DA's kind of back improve it mode.

350
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 1: But the thing is about having a prove it year,

351
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: Like you take that time, like, Okay, this is gonna

352
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: be a one year deal for me. I'm gonna prove

353
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: how good I am. Well, you want to get yourself

354
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: in the best situation possible. Dak's in the best situation possible.

355
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: You just mentioned. He's got Zeke Elliott, He's got one

356
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: of the better offensive lines in the league. He's got

357
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: Michael Gallop and a Mark Cooperette receiver. They've been together,

358
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 1: he's gotten he's now got Michael McCarthy, Mike McCarthy with

359
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: the offense. He's still got Kellamore's offensive coordinator. He's as

360
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: set up in a prove it one year situation as

361
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: anybody could possibly be, as anybody could possibly be. He's

362
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 1: not going in there with one hand tippy on his back.

363
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: He's going in there fully loaded for bear with a

364
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: one year opportunity. And as I told them, I think

365
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 1: what happens to Dak, he blows out of the water.

366
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: Numbers are amazing. I think the Cowboys do make some

367
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: noise in the NFC, and I think Dak gets that

368
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: big deal, but he gets it next year, and then

369
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,719
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a gargantuan deal, something like uh Patrick

370
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 1: signed with that ten year, five hundred billion dollars in

371
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: our lifetime five billion dot contract. Just I'm hoping that

372
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: John Harris the fourth somehow finds a way to play quarterback,

373
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: learns the quarterback position, and that's what he signs for.

374
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: I'll be his quarterback coach every single day, and maybe

375
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: I've got a percentage of that at some point down

376
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: the road. Okay, we talked about sports hate earlier in

377
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 1: the show. From a sports hate perspective, Mark Vannimer hates

378
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 1: one team more than any other. I have a What

00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 1: I usually come up with happy times for Mark to

418
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 1: look back upon, but I'm always curious giving that Marcus

419
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: called every single play along with your in Texas history.

420
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 1: I always like to dive deep into the mind of

421
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: the voice of the Texans to know what he was thinking.

422
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: Now a lot of these times, a lot of times

423
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: for many of these, I will two of the four

424
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: of these. I was there with him, so I know

425
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: that we talked about a lot of these things, but

426
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,439
Speaker 1: I'd like to have him share it with you guys.

427
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: And then, of course there's always a nugget or two

428
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 1: that comes out of these. So Mark, are you ready

429
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: for And it's themed tonight tonight the theme is the

430
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. Okay, So Mark, let's start with number one.

431
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: I was there for this one. It was as stressful

432
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: an afternoon probably as I've spent down on the sidelines.

433
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 1: The Texans were one three, the Colts were one and two.

434
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: It was twenty eighteen. Frank Reich was a first year

435
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: coach for the Indianapolis Colts. The Texans could not get

436
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: off the schneide. They had to win in Indianapolis. They

437
00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: took a big twenty eight to ten lead, and over

438
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: the course of the next quarter and a half, Andrew

439
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 1: Luck chipped and chipped and chipped and chipped away at

440
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: the lead and sent the game to overtime. Mark, what's

441
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: you remember when Frank Reich on fourth and four decided

442
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 1: to go for it in overtime with the game tied

443
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: at thirty four. I don't know if Jonathan Joseph got

444
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: a game ball, but perhaps he should have for that

445
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: one play, because it seemed like all afternoon long, you know,

446
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: I'm watching j Joe give this like ten yard cushion,

447
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: it seemed, and Chester Rogers and whoever else was, you know,

448
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: they were able to catch the short stuff on him

449
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: right and get some gains. And you mentioned chipping away,

450
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: and I saw before that fourth and four Jjo was

451
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: backed up again. I thought, oh my gosh, he's gonna

452
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 1: go to Rogers, gonna pick it up, no problem, right,

453
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: And j Joe right before the snap creeps right up

454
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: on Rogers, gets right up at his grill, and sure enough,

455
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 1: luck went to Rogers, but Jjo was right there to

456
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: help break it up, and they did not convert on

457
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: fourth down. I thought for Reich, you know, he got

458
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 1: some praise. The Texans took some criticism because the Colts

459
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: didn't convert on a fourth down and that that gave

460
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: Houston the game, even though we all know that Watson

461
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: still had some plays to make, or at least one right.

462
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: He had to hit the Hopkins and they were running

463
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 1: out of time. They won that one at the buzzer

464
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:30,360
Speaker 1: in overtime, but the Frank Reich decision, I was. I

465
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: was terrified that they were gonna make it. I was,

466
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't want to see a punt because

467
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: I thought how much time was there on the clock

468
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: when they would have punted. Not much, not enough for

469
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: a sustained drive in the extra session there, and I

470
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: thought we were headed for Tieville. But I thought, hey,

471
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 1: I gotta take a tie right now, Monty, you know,

472
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: I gotta take a tie. Give me the punt, take

473
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: a tie. When they were going forward, I was really frightened.

474
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: I thought that they were going to convert because of

475
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: the way they were dealing. But I credit j Joe

476
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: from making that play, getting right up on the receiver

477
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: and unexpectedly, perhaps because he hadn't been doing that much

478
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: that afternoon. So that's something I'll never forget about that game. Yeah,

479
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 1: that game, man, the one you know on the one thing,

480
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 1: and you guys don't don't experience it, and we don't

481
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: normally experience this up in Indianapolis, but they had the

482
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: roof open that day and it was hot. And I

483
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: remember in the fourth quarter when Andrew tied the game

484
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: up with a touchdown, I remember I remember seeing guys

485
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: both on both sides, on both sides literally sitting in

486
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 1: the end zone, like sitting in the end zone like

487
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: they were so tired. And I thought, we gotta go

488
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 1: to overtime now, we have to go to overtime now.

489
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: And then we've got this game against Dallas on Sunday night. Oh,

490
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 1: there's no way we're gonna survive. And what The other

491
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: thing I remember, too, was two weeks prior we played

492
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: the Titans. We're down by three, we had seventeen seconds left,

493
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: and we had the ball, I mean beyond midfield. I

494
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: can't remember exactly where we had it, but I remember thinking, man,

495
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: it's we didn't have any time out, so it's boy,

496
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: it would have been tough. But I remember thinking, get

497
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,959
Speaker 1: a ball thrown, get up, maybe spike it. You might have.

498
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: All you gotta have is once you just got one

499
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: second to be able to have one opportunity to get

500
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: fairbranded out there to kick a game type fuel. I'll

501
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 1: take that over time, and Deshan took too much time,

502
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: and I just remember thinking, man, you know, he's the

503
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: kind of guy who learned from this. We'll see what happens. Well,

504
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 1: two weeks later, against the Colts, he gets to that

505
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: same situation. He hits hop, gets the first down and

506
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: then I'll never forget this. Remember kick, He had a

507
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: great game that day. But he gets up to the line,

508
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: the clock is running down, and he wants to make

509
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: sure there's no sense in spiking it immediately to leave

510
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,239
Speaker 1: like nine seconds lath, there's no sets of doing that,

511
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 1: so you might have just let this thing run all

512
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: the way down. And so he's letting it run down

513
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: and Kiki tries to move to the other side of

514
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 1: the formation, and I've never seen de Shaun so adamant.

515
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: Deshaun almost came out of his shoes and I was like, no,

516
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: stay right where you are, and Kiki just froze, snapped it,

517
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: spiked it fair brand hit the field goal. Of course,

518
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 1: after he got iceed and missed the first one, he

519
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: nailed the second one. I gotta win. So yeah, that

520
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: was a good one. Okay, that was a good one, yep,

521
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: next one. Mark what you remember when Arian Foster went

522
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: off in the opener in twenty ten in the win

523
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: against the Colts? All right, so the Colts is the theme.

524
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: I love this one. Obviously. I was personally going through

525
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: a really bad problem with my voice that that preseason.

526
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: There are a couple of seasons where I went through

527
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: major voice issues early in the early in camp, early

528
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: in preseason, maybe through the season a lot of it.

529
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: Twenty ten and twenty fifteen with the two worst years

530
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: I've ever had at the mic. So I remember feeling

531
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: better like a week before that, and the I was

532
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: thanking God that I was. I was on it that

533
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: day because there were a lot of big calls in

534
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: that game, and that was Aaron. You know, Ben take

535
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: got hurt in the preseason. You just drafted him. Is

536
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: Arian going to be the guy? Oh? It looks like

537
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 1: he's going to be the guy. And you know the

538
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: offense went nuts. Manning still through for over four hundred

539
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: yards in that game. And I wish the return engagement

540
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: the trip up there on mind the night of football

541
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: was a lot better because that year spiraled out of control,

542
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: as we all know. Although they were four and two

543
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: at one point, which is hard to believe, but that

544
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,959
Speaker 1: day was as good as it gets. Foster going nuts,

545
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: just feeling great about the football team beating the Colts

546
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: for only the second time in the history of the franchise.

547
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 1: That was it. That was only the second win over

548
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: the Colts two thousand and six was the first on

549
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: Christmas Eve, and then we had to wait, you know,

550
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 1: went swept in OH seven, eight nine, and then and

551
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 1: some of the really close games. Rosen Copter another a team,

552
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 1: point lydia blew in OH nine at home, missing the

553
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: field goal at the buzzer at oh nine. So to

554
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: just completely run over them in the opener of twenty

555
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: ten was delightful. I know, when I left the building

556
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: that day, I was like, I kind of felt both

557
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: sides of it, Like they just took the ball and

558
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: stuffed it right down their throat and that was so

559
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: fun to watch. And I just didn't I just didn't

560
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: think that was possible. You know, a zone running scheme

561
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: like Gary has run and has been with Mike Shanahan

562
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: for a long time now, Kyle's running with the San

563
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 1: Francisco forty nine ers. I just didn't know that that

564
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: was possible, but it was and they did, and they

565
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: stuffed it right down her throat. But the flip side,

566
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: I was like, Man, you know, they still gave up

567
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,719
Speaker 1: a lot of passing yards to Peyton Manning. I'm a

568
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: little worried about that. Secondary just yeah, I don't know, man,

569
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: And that obviously is what came to fruition. Aaron was

570
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: great in twenty ten. But I just had that feeling

571
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: like I'm really happy, really really happy they got to

572
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: win Man that defense career. It's ugly head later and

573
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: it did unfortunately in twenty ten. Okay, this is when

574
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: we don't talk about a lot, I think because of

575
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: the how did I say this? Well, I'll just ask

576
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: you it. It's not one we can bring up a lot,

577
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: and we sort of forget about twenty sixteen Sunday night

578
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: at home against the Colts. What you remember, Mark, when

579
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 1: brock Oswyler hit CJ. Fedorowitz to tie the game and

580
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: send it to overtime. All right, So it's the most

581
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: embarrassing call I've ever made. Okay, just to make it

582
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: about me again, when I said, Houston, we have a quarterback.

583
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: But you know that was at the end of the night.

584
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: I was at the end of the night. I felt

585
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: good about Brock that night, because how could you not

586
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: feel good about that comeback? Right? I thought that the

587
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 1: throw all right to Lamar Miller. Lamar Miller did everything,

588
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: you just umped it off to him as a checkdown.

589
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: That that ten yard catch and run was phenomenal stuff

590
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: by Lamar. That that and the ninety seven yard TD

591
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: Lamar's greatest plays as a Texan, Right, I think we

592
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: all agree on that. I can't think of another one

593
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: that's that's as good as those two. The second TD

594
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: in the comeback was the hit to Fedorowitz, right, yes, yes,

595
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: And that was a really terrific throw, you know, and

596
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 1: that that was like something that Watson does, you know,

597
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: not a scramble, but just the throw itself, the accuracy

598
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: downfield and everything. I mean, there was a little tight

599
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: window when he got it there. Now, maybe it was

600
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: just luck and you know, a squirrel finding the acorn

601
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: and the clock being right twice a day, the broken

602
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: clock or whatever. I don't know what it was, but

603
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: it was really good. And I thought another throw he

604
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: made that was excellent was in overtime to hit Jaalen

605
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: Strong to put him in field. Goal range. I thought

606
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: that was a good thrown, a good play by Jalen

607
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 1: to get them in range to win the game. And

608
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: when they capped off that comeback because they were dead, Johnny,

609
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 1: you know that fans are leaving. Was a terrible night.

610
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: You're gonna lose to the Colts again. Brock is not

611
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: working out. But the Brock woke up and I thought,

612
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: this is it. Now he's got it, Now he's got it. Well,

613
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: I said what I said, and you know, obviously I

614
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: regret it, but it was just one of those moments

615
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: and I just won't forget that kind of night because

616
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,760
Speaker 1: I don't care who's playing quarterback. You know, they came

617
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 1: back against Andrew Luck and Indy. They swept the Colts

618
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: that year. And Andrew Luck was quarterbacking both games for

619
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: the Colts, so that was a nice year. I mean,

620
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: you want to talk about the positives of the Osweiler

621
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: one year era wins, heats too and all against the

622
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,320
Speaker 1: Colts as a Texan, wait died. He's the only quarterback

623
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: to do that, right, am I? Right about that? Oh

624
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: boy to be to be undefeated again. He's the only

625
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: quarterback to have well, he's only quarterback to sweep the Colts.

626
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 1: The only time we've ever swept the Colts, Is it true? Yes?

627
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, really, yeah, because in eighteen, in eighteen,

628
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 1: well you know Sean. In seventeen, we didn't beat him

629
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: eighteen to Sean split because we we lost. We lost

630
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: the game in December here, but we won the one

631
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: obviously we just talked about. And then nineteen we split

632
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: the only one. In ten, you lost a second night,

633
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 1: the Monday night return up there. In eleven, you lost

634
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: the Thursday night or to Dan Orlovsky. Right. Fifteen you

635
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: lost Hasselbeck in a diaper game here yep. Twelve, even

636
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 1: in twelve you beat him here to win the division,

637
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: and then up there final day of the regular season

638
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: lost to rookie Andrew Luck and lost home field advantage

639
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: throughout the playoffs. Cemented that, yeah, you're right, he's the

640
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: only guy to do it. Is the only Texans quarterback

641
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,760
Speaker 1: to start, you know, a few games and never lose

642
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 1: to the Colts. That's Brockos, Wilder, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah,

643
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 1: there you go. Okay, last one, you alluded to this

644
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: a little bit. You said the year I wish I

645
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:53,799
Speaker 1: could have been there to see this game, And there

646
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: are a lot of games that I wish I could

647
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 1: have seen prior to me getting back here in two

648
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: thousand and seven. This would be at the top of

649
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: the list, one of the top three games I'd want

650
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,760
Speaker 1: to see, obviously, the number one one being the opener

651
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 1: against Dallas. But in two thousand and six, the Texans

652
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 1: did beat the Colts. So I want to know what

653
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,399
Speaker 1: you remember when Chris Brown was lining up to kick

654
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: the game winning field goal against the Colts. What you

655
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: remember about that more Andre Ware singing I've got the

656
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: call somewhere. I can't pull it up instantly, but I

657
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: remember Trey singing well because they were playing um Prince.

658
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: They were playing Prince in the on the you know,

659
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: Gavin was playing it on the on the video board, right, yeah. Yeah.

660
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 1: It was Let's go crazy, and Andrea goes let's go crazy,

661
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 1: and uh and I've called the final play and there

662
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: was nobody what was it forty two yard? It was

663
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: forty something and maybe it's forty eight, but nobody in

664
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: the building thought he was gonna miss it. It was

665
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: one of those like you didn't sweat it out at all.

666
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: I think I sweated the fairbarn twenty plus yarder in

667
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: the playoff game were that I sw I just felt

668
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 1: utterly confident that Brown was gonna make it, which is

669
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: ironic because you know, nine up there a field goal

670
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: shorter or forty yard or to send the Texans in overtime.

671
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: He missed it, and it started his big problems in

672
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 1: his career. But yeah, that was that was a real

673
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,720
Speaker 1: good one, Johnny. I mean, Ron Dane over one hundred

674
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: and fifty yards. I loved Ron Dane on this team.

675
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: You know, he's a kind of forgotten running back on

676
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 1: this team. And that was so good because you had

677
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 1: never beaten them, you know, and the joy and the

678
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: season wasn't a good one. It was Kubiak's rookie head

679
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: coach year and all that, but the joy on the

680
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 1: faces of the players who had been there a while

681
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 1: to finally beat the Colts, mister McNair, all of them, everybody.

682
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 1: It just it was a great, great afternoon and it

683
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 1: was Christmas Eve. It's it's so funny you say that,

684
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: because that's what I remember about twenty fifteen, beating them

685
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 1: there and I had only been going that was only

686
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: my second year Indian app That was better. That was

687
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: better that up there beating them up there, and the

688
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 1: people on the sideline that had been there forever, and

689
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: you know, it's funny because you know, to be it's like, yeah,

690
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: you know, he's what the Patriots. Patriots beat the Colts,

691
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: Like yeah, okay, what's what's kind of a big deal.

692
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: But the people that had been around, had been there

693
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 1: for a while, it was like they got it, like,

694
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: we don't beat this, we don't. We don't beat this

695
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: team up here, and then we did in sixteen, and

696
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: then we did in eighteen. I'm not I told coach

697
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: O'Brian and you know he doesn't want to hear it

698
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 1: from me because every once in a while I'll just

699
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 1: chime in with something listened to put it in New

700
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 1: England terms, this is the Red Sox before they beat

701
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: the Yankees, right before they were able to get over

702
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: the hump and beat the Yankees. You know, late nineties,

703
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 1: the Yankees are cruising along, Red Sox make the playoffs

704
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 1: every once in a while, can't beat the Yankees, and

705
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 1: they finally beat the Yankees. This is you know, we

706
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: have never beaten them. You know he knew any way,

707
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: but uh, and and I was like, here's my unsolicited

708
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: opinion on the whole deal. And he loves unsolicited opinions

709
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, yeah, of course he really is like, yeah, thanks, Fanny, good, thanks,

710
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 1: this will this will really help with our team preparation

711
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,879
Speaker 1: for this one. I'm sure Brandon Whedon will be thinking

712
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: about what you said as he's trying to find jail

713
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: and strong coming off the bench. So now it all

714
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: worked out up there. Chris Brown kicking that food. That

715
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: would be one of the games that I would want

716
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: to see that I was not a part of it

717
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: before I got back here in twenty two thousand and seven.

718
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 1: The obvious the opener, that would be another one. All right,

719
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 1: So one more thing about that oh six game. You

720
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: just felt being in the building it was all working

721
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 1: out very well with Dane because you're keeping Manning on

722
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: the bench and ya and you could see the frustration

723
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: on Manning's face. He couldn't get on the fielded up,

724
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:54,439
Speaker 1: not enough possessions, um, and they were just like when

725
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 1: do we when do we let David Carr throw the football?

726
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: And Carr had to hit Andrey Johnson to put him

727
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: in range. You just weren't gonna get there. Grinding it

728
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: out on the ground, you had to ultimately go to

729
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: the air, and finally it was time to unleash a throw.

730
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: Kubiak is interesting that way. I can almost like I

731
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 1: felt like I could just channel his feelings. And it

732
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,320
Speaker 1: was the same thing in the postseason running had with

733
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: the Broncos. I get to feel him like, I don't

734
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: want to throw this ball, like we are gonna run

735
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: it as much as humanly possible. We are not gonna

736
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: because with an aging manning he didn't want to do it.

737
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: He didn't want to. You know, every once in a

738
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 1: while they would throw it and sometimes I know that

739
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 1: that's not the most exciting football, but that's football too.

740
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: That's football, man, that's historic football. That's like seventy two

741
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: Dolphins football. And you're like, wait a minute, are we

742
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: gonna actually throw this ball? Okay, let's get ready here,

743
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,800
Speaker 1: you know, as opposed to now it's like all the

744
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: way around the park. Yeah, Trusting number four is a

745
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: little different than trust. Yeah, former quarterbacks, no doubt about that. Okay,

746
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 1: we get back, we'll go round the league. A few

747
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: other things we need to hit on, and we have

748
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 1: spent I don't know how many days on the air,

749
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: and each day we go, oh man, we haven't talked

750
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 1: about the Washington Football Club's name change. That next right

751
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: here on Texas Oxis. Can't get enough Texans Radio. We've

752
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 1: got shows, We've got podcast we've got interviews. It's all

753
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 1: on Houston Texans dot Com. It's like Netflix. But June's

754
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: Houston Texans Star of Courage Award, presented by APACHE, will

755
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: be presented to Houston Police Department Lieutenant Bridget Loomis. Lieutenant Loomis,

756
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 1: it's an exemplary leadership standard for all with her commitment

757
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: to service. Recently, she went above and beyond to help

758
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 1: a mother and her two children escape a domestic abuse situation,

759
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 1: taking care of their hotel bill when shelters were full.

760
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 1: Her willingness to serve those around her for the past

761
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 1: twenty three years means more to her community than she knows.

762
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,560

804
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: we've gonna been on the radio and not even mentioned

805
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 1: we get to this point, as happens with a lot

806
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: of radio shows that you and I have done a

807
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: lot that I've done over the years, and we're like,

808
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: oh man, we forgot to talk about that, and then

809
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 1: we do it day after day after day. The Washington

810
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:42,760
Speaker 1: Washington Football Club, owned by Dan Snyder right has kicked

811
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,959
Speaker 1: the name Redskins to the curb. Finally. It's taken years.

812
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,319
Speaker 1: A lot of people have been asking for that for

813
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: a very very long time. Now. The two things that

814
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: go with that, Number one, your thoughts about them finally

815
00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: doing that, and then two then name or what it's

816
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 1: going to be. I've heard a lot of different things.

817
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: I was listening to NFL Serious XM radio the other

818
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 1: day and they were kind of going through a few

819
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,240
Speaker 1: of the different things, and I think it was Jim

820
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 1: in Jim and Pad, Jim Miller and Pecker were talking

821
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 1: about it, and they were they basically were like, blow

822
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:22,439
Speaker 1: it all up, change colors, change change everything. And the thought, man,

823
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 1: what would I what would I do with that? Your

824
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: thoughts about the Redskins being no longer? You know a

825
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: lot of memories of the Redskins being really good, Uh,

826
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: the Washington Football Club being really good. And you know,

827
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 1: I talk about Vander Kidd from time to time because

828
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: he's a student of the game, and you know, I

829
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 1: was saying, look, the Washington club was so good under

830
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 1: Joe Gibbs and winning three Super Bowls with three different

831
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and the first African American quarterback to win a

832
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,799
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and you know, all the achievements, and I mean,

833
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 1: they were fun to watch. The Hogs, John Riggins, Joe thisman.

834
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,800
Speaker 1: You know, they they never had back then a great,

835
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,400
Speaker 1: great quarterback, right, Theisman was a good quarterback. Williams had

836
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 1: a tremendous run. I thought Williams was a pretty underrated

837
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,879
Speaker 1: quarterback actually, even with Tampa, because remember you brought them

838
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: to the postseason. But Rippin was kind of like one

839
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: hit wonder. He's like safety dance at quarterback. You know,

840
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 1: he's Billy, don't be a hero at quarterback. He's uh,

841
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 1: I don't know, don't you want me by the human leg?

842
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 1: Oh that they had at least one other hit, But anyway,

843
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,879
Speaker 1: you get my drift. So a lot of memories about them,

844
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 1: and I think that people who really love them, and

845
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 1: I'm not one of these people are going to have

846
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: an interesting time here letting go of the past as

847
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:41,319
Speaker 1: as they stay in Washington and rename themselves. But they'll

848
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,720
Speaker 1: keep the colors, and I think it'll have a field.

849
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 1: I just hope they pick a great name. And I've

850
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,399
Speaker 1: seen the Red Tails and some other things out there

851
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 1: that could be interesting for them. And that's that's a

852
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 1: tribute to what the flying that flying group, right, Yeah,

853
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,359
Speaker 1: the Tuskegee Irman, a group of African American military. Oh

854
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: so it is directly the Tuskegees. I thought they were

855
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 1: called the Tuskegee Airman, not the but so the Redtails

856
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 1: are the same. Yeah, it says. It just says Redtails

857
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,399
Speaker 1: could be a tribute to the Tuskegee Airmen, a group

858
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 1: of African American military pilots who fought in World War Two.

859
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 1: The team has yet to comment on the rumor name

860
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: nor its linkage to ww to World War two fighters.

861
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:25,479
Speaker 1: So Redtails has the best odds in Vegas. They plus

862
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 1: three hundred and three to one odds in Las Vegas

863
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: as being the nickname. I saw some mockups of uniforms

864
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,359
Speaker 1: and I thought, and they're not burgundy in gold, And

865
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:41,799
Speaker 1: I thought, haven't they said their sticking with a Look

866
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 1: if they do this that fast, Johnny, the uh, there's

867
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: no way they can change colors in that stadium. That

868
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 1: but they can certainly they could probably change the uniform,

869
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: but a lot of stuff is not gonna get changed.

870
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 1: It's this very quick turnaround, and they already ordered all

871
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 1: their gear from Nike uh for the season. But you know, look,

872
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 1: money can buy anything, I guess. But the thing is this,

873
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm wondering, and I'm not I'm not joking here. Is

874
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:08,960
Speaker 1: Red Tails gonna still be good in twenty thirty forty years.

875
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: Is somebody gonna have a problem with this? And I'd

876
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 1: want to think about that very carefully. Here, I want

877
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: to pick a name that I can have for the

878
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,879
Speaker 1: next one hundred years and people be okay with it.

879
00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 1: And look, I'm not even I'm not being facetious, you know.

880
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: I think you have to think very clearly. Look, I was,

881
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 1: and I mentioned this briefly last week. I was in

882
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 1: the mac when the Miami University Redskins and Oxford, Ohio

883
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 1: changed their name to the RedHawks. And I think around

884
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:37,680
Speaker 1: the same time the you know, the Red Men of

885
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:41,799
Speaker 1: Saint John's went to the Red Storm. The Eastern Michigan Hurons,

886
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: which was a tribal name, changed their name to the Eagles.

887
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,600
Speaker 1: And there were people who I mean, I know, it's

888
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,279
Speaker 1: like Eastern Michigan. Who cares except Kevin Walter, that's his

889
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 1: alma monitor. But they were there already, the Eagles by

890
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,719
Speaker 1: the time he got there. But the Huron people, the

891
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 1: fans were really upset, and some of the tribal descendants

892
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 1: didn't like it either. But when I was in central Michigan,

893
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:05,480
Speaker 1: the Chippuas have the support of the local tribe, and

894
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 1: like when I was there, I got the casino on

895
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 1: the air with us, and we did we did a

896
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of infomercial type programming to honor

897
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,319
Speaker 1: and acknowledge and recognize the reservation and all the work

898
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 1: they were doing with the casino money because they were

899
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 1: they were trying to make a difference there. But anyway,

900
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 1: I digress. It's it's a big move. It's huge, Johnny,

901
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: What has the story broken yet? I don't think it has.

902
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk how to post this morning citing numerous

903
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 1: reports and something really big, something else was coming down

904
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,720
Speaker 1: and it wasn't so good. Now. Larry Michael, the Voice

905
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: of Washington, he has stepped away from his job. He

906
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 1: has retired from the Redskins announcing crew. And he's been

907
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 1: there sixteen years. I know Larry from a long time ago.

908
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: He used to run Westwood one Radio Sports. He hired

909
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 1: me to do the NCAA tournament back in the early

910
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: os so I know him pretty well and I just,

911
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:58,720
Speaker 1: you know, before we got in the air and texted,

912
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: he texted back, but nothing about why, and uh, you know,

913
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: I'm eager to find out why because something's up there

914
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 1: and I'm hoping everything's okay. Well, the it's been sort

915
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: of cryptic. People have been talking about this announcement that's

916
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,800
Speaker 1: coming and that I was supposed to happen on Tuesday.

917
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 1: And to put to put some context to it, there

918
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 1: were two individuals that were let go, I think in

919
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:26,160
Speaker 1: the personnel department, and people are drawing a connection between

920
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 1: that and this, and and then I think Florio mentioned

921
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: it was coming Thursday. People are saying, Okay, it's coming Thursday,

922
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 1: and that apparently the Washington Post is dropping a big story.

923
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 1: I don't know beyond that, but how does it not

924
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 1: leak Yeah, yeah, exactly to hold onto a bombshell that

925
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 1: day or that district, whatever, that that area of the country. Anyways,

926
00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:57,280
Speaker 1: after Red Tails, so Redtails is the is the favorite.

927
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,279
Speaker 1: The next shortest odds. Now, they're gonna have to get

928
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: some help from the Harlem Globetrotters here. But Generals has

929
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,840
Speaker 1: the next shortest odds at four to one. The Washington Generals.

930
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 1: I don't think that's happening. No, you cannot make it

931
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,919
Speaker 1: the watch because that's what the team the Globetrotters played

932
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 1: for all those years was they were the Washington Generals. Right,

933
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: you can't be the Washington general because there you're saying,

934
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 1: we're we're the guys that everyone's gonna beat up. We

935
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 1: are your we are your pats the opponent. Yeah, there's

936
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:33,319
Speaker 1: no chance. Now, the New Jersey Generals, I get it.

937
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:37,320
Speaker 1: That was the NFL owned by Donald Trump. Oh my gosh. Anyway,

938
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:44,399
Speaker 1: go on. Next shortest odds, the Washington Presidents at five

939
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:48,080
Speaker 1: to one. No, it's you know, being a president is

940
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: not what it used to be. No, I don't. I

941
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 1: don't mean the men in charge. I mean people's view

942
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 1: of the job, people's view of the position, which is

943
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: high what you're saying. Okay, Uh, the Washington Lincoln's. No,

944
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 1: that's next at eight to one. Okay, I'd rather have

945
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 1: the Benjamin's, the Washington Washington Benjamin's, give me some Benjamin's. Uh,

946
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,239
Speaker 1: this one is tied with Lincoln's, both at eight to one.

947
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:24,359
Speaker 1: The Washington Veterans. Uh, not bad, but it doesn't like

948
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't get your blood flowing, you know what I mean?

949
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 1: I know not all names do. I get it, but

950
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,359
Speaker 1: I don't know. I have an option. It's not on

951
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: any of this. But here's some others. At nine to one.

952
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:38,440
Speaker 1: The Washington Capitals they already have. That's the hockey team. Um.

953
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: Then they have the Washington Americans. It's just kind of redundant.

954
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:48,359
Speaker 1: I guess, no, go, yeah, I know. Then they have

955
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 1: the the the These three are at ten to one,

956
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 1: the Americans, the Washington Memorials, and the Washington Monuments. No, no, no,

957
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: I'd rather have Americans or red tails of all those names.

958
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,880
Speaker 1: You've said, that's it. Yeah, Warriors didn't make it. Nobody

959
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:11,799
Speaker 1: likes the Warriors. Warriors not on the list, Not on

960
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 1: the list. One online book is also looking to capitalize

961
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: on some easy money by offering the Washington Snowflakes and

962
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: the Washington Trumps each had five hundred one. No, I'd

963
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 1: stay away from that. Here's the one I came up with.

964
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,320
Speaker 1: What but I don't know how you would put it together.

965
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 1: Just call it Washington, the district, the Washington District, the district,

966
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 1: like the district Columbia. Yeah, now that's district. Dang it, man,

967
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:45,120
Speaker 1: I thought trying to make it a state. Yeah, I know,

968
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:48,240
Speaker 1: they're exactly. The fifty first state is a district. I guess,

969
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. You know the thing about it, Mark,

970
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 1: you Bramber, great point, and I know you and I

971
00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: talk about this, and you know, NFL Films is such

972
00:53:56,200 --> 00:54:01,920
Speaker 1: a great history lesson. They they maintain the history of

973
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:05,359
Speaker 1: this game, and it's always looking back, you know, at

974
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,879
Speaker 1: the history of this game, and we'll continue to do

975
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 1: it for you know, till the end of time. But

976
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: we'll look back and see those highlights of the Redskins

977
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: and be you know, reminded for how long that the

978
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:23,120
Speaker 1: Redskins were the team name in Washington, which is which

979
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 1: is a shame. But you're right, you bring up a

980
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: great point of that is going forward, you know, twenty

981
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,319
Speaker 1: thirty years from now. Let's hope that Dan Schnyder and

982
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 1: Ron Rivera, which is interesting in the press release that

983
00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: they're working together on this, which I'm thinking what they

984
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: didn't say was Oh, yeah, by the way, we got

985
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,360
Speaker 1: a marketing apartment working on this as well. Maybe they're not,

986
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:44,839
Speaker 1: maybe at all. Maybe it's just the two of them

987
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:48,560
Speaker 1: sitting the room going Okay, Ron, what you think? All right? Dan,

988
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,279
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe we should go with this. It's

989
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: just the two of them. I don't know. I don't

990
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 1: think there are going to be more people working on it.

991
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:55,800
Speaker 1: But I think you brought up a great point of

992
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 1: that is, whatever it is they come up with, let's

993
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 1: make sure that twenty thirty four years down the road,

994
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be something they're gonna look back and

995
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 1: regret that, and then obviously you have to think about

996
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 1: changing it again. So you bring up you bring up

997
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 1: an excellent point as it pertains the history of this

998
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,800
Speaker 1: and the future of this name for the Washington Football

999
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 1: Global car Redtails works Johnny because he can still sing

1000
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 1: the song Hail to the Redtails. You know you can

1001
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:25,160
Speaker 1: do it. Good point. I think Redtail Hail to the

1002
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 1: Lincoln's but it doesn't have the same ring to it. Yeah,

1003
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 1: I like a literation Washington Warriors. I like a literation Redtails.

1004
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:35,719
Speaker 1: I heard that and I was like, yeah, I kinda,

1005
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,920
Speaker 1: I kind of get it, but we'll see what Dan

1006
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,480
Speaker 1: Steyder and Ron River about to do in Washington with

1007
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: that team. Tomorrow we'll have the General on with us.

1008

Speaker 1: He is in the district or around the district, so

Speaker 1: that one. Here's the SNA And look at that donation

1047

00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,800

Speaker 1: Radio six ten. You look nice? How is work? Well?

1053
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 1: It was fourth period Civics. The kids were giving me

1054
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 1: the third degree? Was the UFO seen hovering of a

1055
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:35,760
Speaker 1: Washington DC was a fisherman attacked by a three hundred

1056
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 1: and twenty pound shrimp. They'd been bitten by the fake

1057
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 1: news bug, all right, and it was holding on like

1058
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:43,400
Speaker 1: a driver's ed student to a steering wheel. How was

1059
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 1: I going to get a bunch of wide eyed kids

1060
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 1: to wise up about what they see on the internet.

1061
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 1: Then it hit me like a dodgeball on field day.

1062
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:54,360
Speaker 1: The name of the game was news Snoops. Each student

1063
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 1: got an article and two minutes to decide if it
