I mean, all these things we've talked about 46 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: all offseason long? Do these things really happen? The Rust 47 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: Belt Tour, which is which is Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago? 48 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: Those four games, how are those gonna play out? I 49 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: don't want to play them all four in a row, 50 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: thank you, But how are those gonna play out? With 51 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,839 Speaker 1: the schedule? You mentioned it last night, Johnny, no international 52 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: games for anybody, and the Texans didn't have any international 53 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,839 Speaker 1: games on the schedule anyway, but the Jags are gonna 54 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: be staying home instead. And I was thinking, oh good, 55 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: we'll get to play in Jacksonville. Oh we were going 56 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: to do that anyway. We played that, Yeah, that was 57 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: that was gonna happen anyway. But but I wanted to 58 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: get into a few other things here, and you brought 59 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: it up yesterday about when I wanted to play Indie, 60 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: and you know, I always just to complain that for years. 61 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: I forget how many. I think it was six or 62 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: seven years. We had to play the late the second 63 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: part of that season series up there, and I always 64 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: complained about that, And I'm ready to go back to 65 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: that now because we've had a couple of times the 66 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: other way. And look, winning it Indie is always hard. 67 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: Two years ago, you're able to do it last year 68 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: a little bit of a different story. Of course, we'll 69 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: see what happens this year. But other things I don't 70 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: like include things I don't like that I don't want 71 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: to see, like Monday night football on the road followed 72 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: by another road game that cannot happen this year. And 73 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: I know it's a rare thing, but it's happened to 74 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: the Texans before, and I don't want to see that. 75 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, that's first, That's one of 76 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: the first things I don't want to see. Well, that 77 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: happened in twenty fourteen when we went to Pittsburgh and 78 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: we played Pittsburgh on a Monday night, had to turnaround 79 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: and fly to Nashville and play Tennessee the very next week, 80 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: and it was like, that was brutal. I remember, this 81 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: is gonna be a really weird thing. Mark. I remember 82 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: getting out of bed the Monday after that Tennessee game 83 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: and I was beat. I mean, I was like, I 84 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: was so I was sore. I was like, man, oh, 85 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: I've been doing a stalk on the sideline and talking. 86 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: I can only imagine the players play, but the players 87 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: feel like but I remember seeing and I think it 88 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: was last year, maybe the year before, But that is 89 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: one of the things that they tried to eliminate, if 90 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: at all possible, was that road Monday night road Sunday 91 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: schedule to try and keep those and you're not gonna 92 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: have two Monday night back to backs. I think anybody 93 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: done that. So it's the road Monday, road Sunday. They've 94 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: tried to him and, if not completely take that away 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: from teams so they don't have to don't have to 96 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: worry about that. And I remember when they discussed it. 97 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: I want to say that the Texans were brought up 98 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: at some point, but I think it happened to the Jets, 99 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: And of course, because it happened in New York, it 100 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: happens everywhere, and so the vitriol was very loud from 101 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: Fireman Ed and all the New Jerseyans at that point 102 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: and they've now done away with that. And you know 103 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: the other thing I thought about Mark and I need 104 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: to I need to see if we can't, oh tomorrow 105 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: or maybe even Thursday at some point. I know somebody 106 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,679 Speaker 1: who puts the schedule together, one of the five people 107 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: that puts the schedule together. I once coached him. So 108 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: I need to see if I can get Blake on 109 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: the line and see if he can join us to 110 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: talk about He might be busy. If he's not, I'd 111 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: love to, you know, have him on the show. Maybe 112 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: Friday would be great too. That that'd be cool to 113 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: get Blake. That'd be awesome. That'd be awesome, because there's 114 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: so much that goes into it, you know. I just 115 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: at NRG Stadium. People might not realize that the county 116 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: can protect a couple of dates for events other than football. 117 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 1: There are other considerations. Remember last year, was it last year? 118 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: The year before you had Taylor Swift or Beyonce or 119 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: two years ago you had that Beyonce deal. Last year 120 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: was the Prime Minister of India last year? I think, yeah, 121 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: last year? Yes, that I mean, those kinds of things 122 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: are no joke, you know, and not just all right, 123 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: you can't play at home that weekend, But how you 124 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: get the team in and out of the stadium just 125 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: to travel on those occasions. There's so much that you 126 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: take into consideration. That's just here. They have thirty two 127 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: teams that they have to figure out. Uh, you know, 128 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: what's a good time of year for this good? I 129 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: always complain when we go to Indy because every time 130 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: I go to India, there seems to be some massive 131 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: convention or two taking place, and I'm like, can't you 132 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: guys schedule or around these things. I think the city 133 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: loves it though. They fill up all the restaurants and 134 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: it's just great for the economy and everything. We'll see 135 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: how that goes this year. That kind of thing. But 136 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: and here's another thing, Johnny, before we get into other 137 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: beefs about this, Like this is a prebeef show. You. 138 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to see Monday night on the road 139 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: followed by another road game. Don't want to see that. 140 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: But here's the other thing. The league knows what's going on, 141 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: all right. And I was just on a huge league 142 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: call today with over four hundred people who work in 143 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: the NFL, and they know, and they're gonna take every 144 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: measure to do things the right way, the safest possible way. 145 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: They didn't say exactly how that's gonna go down, because 146 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: we don't really know what's going to happen in three months. 147 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: Because it's over three months from now you'd play your 148 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: first preseason game. The world might look different, maybe it 149 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: looks worse, maybe you can't do it. Who knows, but 150 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna put it out there. And I love setting 151 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: the mark. You know, this is Hey, let's get ready 152 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: for this, let's go. And I just think it brings 153 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: a lot of hope to people. People need the diversion, distraction, entertainment, etc. 154 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: And let's hope we can do it and do it 155 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: in the safest possible way. That's the goal. All right, 156 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: all right, I'll give you another one here Thursday night games. 157 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: Look this. You can't complain to the league about this, 158 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: although I will. We all know what happened when you 159 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: went to Foxboro week three of twenty sixteen. That's kind 160 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: of thing cannot happen again. What's the longest road trip 161 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: this year, Johnny? Is it Chicago Detroit? You don't have 162 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: any really big long one, yeah, because like you don't 163 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: go west, you don't go west. You don't go east. Really, 164 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: you don't go that far east. Pittsburgh is not that 165 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: bad relatively, so you know, if you happen to go 166 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: on the road to play one of those teams this year, 167 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: it's not as bad as going to say, New England. 168 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: But I still don't want to see that. If you 169 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: have to be on the road for a Thursday, please 170 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: make it somewhere close. I look, I'd hate to play 171 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: Kansas City other than the proximity part of it, on 172 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: a Thursday, because they're just too good. You don't want 173 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: a short week to get ready for them. You know, 174 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: that's a road game. But if a Division All opponent, 175 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: you know, I'd take the Jags on a Thursday. We've 176 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: done that before in twenty thirteen that wasn't good. Or 177 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: the Titans on a Thursday. That's a huge game. I 178 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: don't know if I want to see that on a Thursday. 179 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: But and usually the Jags and Titans, it's like this 180 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: annual NFL invitational of those two teams on a Thursday night, 181 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: that's usually the Jags Thursday Night contest. But what do 182 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: you make of the Thursday night ideal and how that 183 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: might play out. You know, the New England wont was 184 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: just brutal because first of all, you got your longest 185 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: flight and you're flying into it. And I want to 186 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: say that year, which is twenty sixteen, we flew into Providence, 187 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: Yes we did. And even if we had flown into Logan, 188 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: had we flown into Logan, it would have been the same, 189 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: just going the other way. We got there with our 190 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: normal time, which is usually you know, three thirty or 191 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: so on the day before the game. Well that put 192 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: us right in the middle of rush hour traffic and 193 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 1: it took forever. And then it was a Thursday night 194 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: and we're trying to get from our hotel to Foxborough 195 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: and there was just no good way to do that, 196 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: no way on atain, none, no good way to do that. 197 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: It's never a good way to do it. It's stay. 198 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: It was just the worst trip of the league, not 199 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: just because he had to face Brady. By the way, 200 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: we know, these are tree problems, these are real life problems. 201 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: These are just NFL team problems. Okay, So before you start, well, 202 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: you guys are looking. We understand this, we say it 203 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: all the time. We're blessed. Okay, continue, Yeah, that's the 204 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: one the other one to me, boy, as much as 205 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: I and I love the Sunday night games, but Sunday 206 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: night on the road, now, I was trying to remember. 207 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: I was like, wow, okay, have we played Sunday night 208 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: on the road, because last year our Sunday night game 209 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: was New England was at home. Year before that it 210 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: was Dallas that was at home. They've done it before 211 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: in history. I mean San Francisco was a Sunday night 212 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: game in twenty thirteen. Didn't go well, not good. Didn't 213 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: like that one at all. But I just have a 214 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: feeling that we're going to end up with a Sunday 215 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: Sunday night road game, which makes Monday morning radio. Yeah, 216 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: these are our problems really hard. Well, I think it's 217 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: tough on the team anytime you have to fly back 218 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: from a prime time road game, anytime you have to 219 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: fly back from My kid is just yelling at me. 220 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: I mean, he understands, he knows. He doesn't want a 221 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: Sunday night road game either. Yeah, he doesn't want and 222 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: he wants he doesn't want that thing outside. It's like 223 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: geez okay, uh, that's that's probably mine is that I'm 224 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: I agree with you that My biggest beef has has 225 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: always been from that first year. I remember going to 226 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh the Monday night and then turning around playing the 227 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: road Sunday m Thursday night games. You know we've played 228 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: I want to say the majority of them at home 229 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: other than sixteen and seventeen. That was New England one 230 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: year and then Cincinnati the next. And Cincinnati was manageable because, 231 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: oh yeah, we stayed close to We stayed near the stadium. 232 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: You could fly into Cincinnati. Actually I think he flew 233 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: into Kentucky maybe, but it was not the travel was 234 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: The travel was not that bad at all. Um, so 235 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: you really didn't have to deal with that aspect. And 236 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: you know when you just tack on, you know, a 237 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: bus ride before the game of an hour and twenty 238 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: five minutes like we had going to New England, that's 239 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: that's an excusable. I mean that that that can't happen. 240 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: But then Cincinnati, it was like fifteen minutes and it 241 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: was just enough time to see Deshaan starting his first 242 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: time that night. I still that that's one of my 243 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: favorite That's one of my favorite stories of all time 244 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: is DeShawn on his birthday starting that game against Cincinnati, 245 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: and we still didn't know. We still had no idea 246 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: before the game. It was not made official before the 247 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 1: game that Deshan was gonna start. But we're on the 248 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: What is that true? Yes, this is true. He never 249 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: never Brian never announced it. We never announced it would happen. 250 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: We just assumed it was gonna happen. And then I 251 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: think maybe right before the game, I think maybe you 252 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: said it was gonna happen. Um. But we get on 253 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: the bus and you go on a later bus. Me 254 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: DP and Drew, we usually go on earlier buses. So 255 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 1: we're on bus two, and Bus two is a mishmash 256 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: of like everybody and some rookies. So it's like medical staff, 257 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 1: it's us, uh, it's are We're all on the second bus. Well, 258 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: the rookies getting that bus. So the bus is packed 259 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: at this point, and all of a sudden, de Sean 260 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: walks on the bus, velvet suit, bow tie, just got 261 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: his bow's headphones on, and he's looking for a spot 262 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: and he just sees a bus is packed, and somebody goes, hey, 263 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: Deshan is a spot right here, is right behind the driver. 264 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: And so we pull out and I'm like this dude's 265 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 1: about to start his first NFL game in his life, 266 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: and you just see him just staring straight ahead and 267 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 1: then very now and again you just see his head 268 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: kind of goes side to side with his music. And 269 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: it was like that dude he did not have a 270 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: car and where he was just like, I'm going to 271 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: play ball Thursday night. No big deal. I'm like, you 272 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: gotta be kidding me. I would have been probably peeing 273 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: my pants sitting on that bus, but it was. It 274 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: was just the cool and the calm. And then he 275 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: goes out there at night and I'll never forget. On 276 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: the first down play of the drive, he has the 277 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: long run, he gets hit by Geno Atkins and Gino 278 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: nearly flew. I thought he. I thought he just punched 279 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: his heart through his back. And then two plays later, 280 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: on third and fifteen, Acres tries to sack him, you 281 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: stiff stiff arms him and then runs fifty some odd 282 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: yards for a touchdown. We're like, okay, this could be different. 283 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: That broke different. That was this seal career. Yeah, that 284 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: that was That was phenomenal stuff as far. All right, 285 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: so this year, this past year, you had no primetime 286 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: road games. You didn't have any and I loved that. Yeah, 287 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: am I right about that? Other than maybe, I mean, 288 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: you can't call a national television audience for the Tampa 289 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: Bay game, but it wasn't a primetime road game. Um 290 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: So I think it's two years in road mark because 291 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: in eighteen we played Tennessee and on Monday night, we 292 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: played Dallas on a Sunday night. Our Thursday night game 293 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: was against Miami. So we played all of our prime 294 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: time games in eighteen at home as well, which makes 295 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: me think, and we're going on the road to play 296 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: We're so due to go on the road in the 297 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: primetime at least once or twice. So and I'm curious 298 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: to see how many they get, you know, how many 299 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: of the Houston Texans get. There's so many compelling matchups 300 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: around the league, you know, you you look at about 301 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: twelve to fourteen teams that are really interesting teams, and 302 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: especially when they match up together. Even a team like 303 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: early on Arizona with Kyler Murray in a second year 304 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: will be an interesting team to watch in a Thursday 305 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: night or or something like that. I bet they get one. 306 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: That NFC West is just always filled with drama, and 307 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: you know, high rolling offenses and everything. So there's just 308 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of good stuff there. It's interesting though, 309 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: how the travel is limited to the middle of the country. 310 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: You're going up and down the middle of the country. 311 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: You got the Division games. You do have the Jags 312 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: on the East coast, but you know it's Florida. It's 313 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: it's North Florida, which is more like just you call 314 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: that the southeast. That's like SEC country really, uh. And 315 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: then and then that's it. You mentioned at Pittsburgh Cleveland. 316 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: I mean, these are teams in the Eastern time zone, 317 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: but you don't feel like you're on the East Coast 318 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: when you're playing teams like that. Here's another one, the 319 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: thanks Giving thing. Now we're gonna find out forty eight 320 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: hours from now, we're gonna find out whether they go 321 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: to Detroit on Thanksgiving or not. That gonna be interesting 322 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: as well. Well. I know how the Harris family will react. 323 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: It's not gonna be good. It's not gonna it's not 324 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: gonna be great. However, however, however, you'll be just a 325 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: late night Thanksgiving dinner. It's just that's good. That's how 326 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: you do it. Yeah, just make it a midnight snack. 327 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: Everybody will get over it, and it's just part of 328 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: the gig.

I saw that Kareem 433 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: Jackson story in the Athletic Johnny about well, if it's 434 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: one hundred percent safe, is it safe to play? Is 435 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: it worth it? Is it? And I'm paraphrasing. I can't 436 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: remember the exact quote. I gotta say this. I mean 437 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: one hundred percent safe with COVID. I don't think that's 438 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: gonna happen, you know, I don't think that that's a possibility. 439 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: You could come out with a vaccine tomorrow. I don't 440 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: know if you're gonna have that done in time. There's 441 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: risk to everything. This is just my personal opinion. You know, 442 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: there's risk going to the going to the hardware store. 443 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: You know. So I'm not sure that's gonna be the 444 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: the barometer one hundred percent safe. That's a very difficult 445 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: thing to determine. And you know, for a football player, 446 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you're always taking risks. But I understand, like 447 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: people have their personal feelings and opinions, and you know, 448 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: I just wish the data out there was more conclusive. 449 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: But we have what we have, and we have to 450 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: make whatever interpretations we can. Yeah, I think that's that's 451 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 1: the key point, is just I mean, leaning on whatever 452 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: data we can that's reliable. And I've said long time ago, 453 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: even though I've stayed a holiday, and I'm sure at 454 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: some point in my life the medical aspect, I mean 455 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: when I when I was coaching and training, were coming 456 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: and say hey, such such has got this, such as 457 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: such has got that. I'm like, okay, fine, Like you 458 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: make the decision, Like I'm not gonna sit down. I 459 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: don't I don't know, uh medically, like, yeah, I can 460 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: figure out a sprained ankle all that kind of stuff, 461 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 1: but you're talking, we're talking about something that is just 462 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: so above and beyond anything that we've ever faced before. 463 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: So but you're right. I mean, do you ever have 464 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: one hundred percent peer safety? Every time you go on 465 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: a field. You just would like to hope that you're 466 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: being as safe as humanly possible for the people that 467 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: are coming to the games, that are coming to watch. 468 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: And the NFL has been looking at this. We as 469 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: an organization, I've been looking at this. We just posted 470 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: today and it may have been last night, but I 471 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 1: saw a post of the day the first in the 472 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: NFL the Facility Hygiene Coordinator YEP, which was fantastic. And 473 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: I hope that we're a league leader in that deb 474 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: Other teams are like, whoa, we got to do that too. 475 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: We have we have to do that. And whether that's 476 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: just enough to give people the confidence said, Hey, when 477 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: they walk at Energy Stadium and they come to see 478 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: a ball game, they know that it's being taken care of, 479 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: and they know that it's being taken care of by 480 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: people that know what they're doing and looking out for 481 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: their safety. The thing is when you walk into Energy Stadium, 482 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: even before this, that's what the Houston Texans, you know, obviously, 483 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 1: they want to you know, create raving fans and memories 484 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: for people to take for a lifetime. But it was 485 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: always and it has always been about safety. And the 486 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: Texans in the NFL will do the right thing and 487 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: make sure that fans enjoy the games when fans are 488 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 1: able to be at the games. And hopefully, like we've 489 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: talked about, there's gonna be an NFL season in twenty twenty, 490 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: and hopefully we can all be part of that and 491 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: enjoying that, and and it'll be nice when the Texans 492 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl in twenty Let's do it. Let's 493 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: do it, okay, Johnny gut reaction. Now, I know usually 494 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: you usually throw these at me. I do, but we'll 495 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: take turns. We're gonna play tennis here, which is a 496 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: decent I guess, social distancing sport tennis, although you have 497 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: to touch the tennis ball. I don't know. It's just 498 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: who knows. Soccer is pretty good because you're just kicking 499 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: your hands. Yeah you're yeah, you don't use your hands. 500 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: And if you're just kicking the ball, what's the big deal, right, 501 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 1: That's what I say, seemingly. Yes, all right, so we'll 502 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: kick the ball back and forth here. I'm going first, 503 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: my gut reaction. College football, you could see some schools 504 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: playing some schools not putting a real premium on quick 505 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: scheduling and televising these games. And I don't know how 506 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: they're going to organize this. But what's your gut reaction 507 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 1: to this story that came down in the last twenty 508 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 1: four hours about college football and the conference is handling 509 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: things separately and you might just do it a whole 510 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: different way. Gut reaction. Yeah, when Mark, when I was coaching, 511 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: I mentioned coaching earlier, the one thing that we always 512 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: had to do was cent our schedule for the next year, 513 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: like years over. Okay, calling at your games. You had 514 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: your district games that you had to play, but then 515 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: you had to call around and find your other games 516 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: to fit your schedule. So you call around and go, okay, 517 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 1: I got week eight open. Who's got Week eight open? Well, okay, 518 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: these two schools over here at week eight open, Like, 519 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can. I don't really want 520 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: to play them. We're kind of a step above them, 521 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: or maybe we're their their way above us. Okay, let's 522 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: keep looking, all right, Well, maybe hey, let me call 523 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: us other team. We'll move from week eight to week 524 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 1: seven or from seven to eight and then opens up 525 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: week seven so I can match up with you guys. 526 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: We had to do all that scheduling on our own. 527 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: So seeing the colleges have to go through and schedule 528 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: the season now or schedule what's I think it's fascinating 529 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,479 Speaker 1: And honestly, I think it's the right thing to do 530 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: all this. Hey we're gonna play you guys twelve years 531 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: in the future. Well, when you do that, you end 532 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: up getting matchups like you think you're gonna get a 533 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: matchup of Hey, Utah State was really good in twenty eighteen, 534 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: We'll play them fourteen years down the road. And Utah State, Oh, 535 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: they might be two and ten. But this way, you 536 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 1: at least look at it and go, Okay, we're playing 537 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: Clemson this year, or we're playing uh, I don't let 538 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: me give you a we're playing I'm trying to We'll 539 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: play Wisconsin this year. Uh, you know what, you have 540 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: a feeling of what Wisconsin's going to be, so you 541 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: know when you match up with them, Okay, you know 542 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: what kind of game it's gonna be. As opposed to, Hey, 543 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: we schedule this game ten years ago, and now all 544 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the school that we thought we were 545 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: gonna see ten years later, is there one so schedule 546 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: it more recently so that we end up getting better 547 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: overall matchup? Well, how about Oklahoma? U h remember? Yeah? 548 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: Well yeah absolutely, I mean yeah, I do remember that. 549 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: Uh so yeah, because like you just don't know, a 550 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: school could go in the tubes, down the tubes. I 551 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: was gonna say another word, uh school could a school 552 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: could really blossom and become a power. But anyway, yeah, 553 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's a larger Can you imagine if you 554 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: had a schedule. Let's say you called Boise State and 555 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: you schedule them in two thousand and three, and you 556 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: scheduled to play them eight or ten years into the future, 557 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: and you're playing them in twenty two thousand and eleven. 558 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: We you schedule Boise State thinking, yeah, you know, tough 559 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: little you know, tough little whack team. At the time 560 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: is Western Athletic Conference. Ten years later, you're talking about 561 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: one of the tough five teams in the country. You're like, WHOA, 562 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: what's going on here? How did I number these guys? 563 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: But if you get a little bit more recent scheduling, 564 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: I think you can end up with better matchups overall. Well, 565 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: I think that's a bigger picture thing. I think for 566 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: this year, this is bizarre. I mean, here we well, yeah, 567 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: it's like you said, though they scheduled so far in advance. 568 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: Did I see something about Rhode Island playing Temple. I 569 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: don't know why this flashed on my screen. Rhode Island 570 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: and Temple agree to play in twenty twenty six. I'm like, 571 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: congratulations for getting that done today. Guys. That was so important. 572 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I get I get it that you're filling 573 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: out schedules. That's the way the game is played. But this, 574 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: this is like what I was talking about in yesterday's show, 575 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: where during World War Two with the British soccer leagues, 576 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: where they had to reform reconfigure is a better word, 577 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: and they had a fifty mile travel limit and they 578 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: played in smaller venues or they had smaller capacity limits 579 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: and all of that stuff because that's the way they 580 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: needed to get it done in World War Two. We 581 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: are in that situation right now. They might have to 582 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: put stuff together sort of on the fly for lack 583 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: of a better way of putting it. All. Right, that's 584 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: my first gut reaction. You go, well, I don't mind that. 585 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I wouldn't I mean college 586 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: football gets a little bit of a you know, the 587 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: draft got kind of a kick in the backside doing 588 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: something different this year, and maybe there are there are 589 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: some best practices to take out of that, and maybe 590 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: that's what happens with college football too. Kind of give 591 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: it a little you know, kick over the you know, 592 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: kick over the murder hornets nest and see what happens. 593 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: Which actually, okay, here's one. Yeah, Frank Gore, after a 594 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: stint with the Miami Dolphins, Ye, after a stint with 595 00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, takes his third trip through the AFC East. 596 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: He now joins the New York Jets. Your gut reaction 597 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: to a Frank Gore is a Jet to be Frank 598 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: Gore still playing football and Frank or is still playing 599 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: football is ridiculous. I mean this, he's the thirty seven 600 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: cane left from the years I was there, and he 601 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: was a freshman my last year there. Oh one, I 602 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: remember he fumbled in that famous game at Boston College. 603 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: It was you know, look, it wasn't a game changing fumble. 604 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: I just remember that for some reason. Yeah, what you're 605 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: prevailing Frank Gore Hurricane memory when you were there him 606 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: fumbling against Boston College. I hate to say that, because 607 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean, frank Or is a Hall of Famer. Where's 608 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: his top three all time right on the rushing list. 609 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: Frank Or is ridiculous us. He's a freak of nature, 610 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: but he's not a jet. This is very weird to me. 611 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: And Greg Williams is there, right, So that's bizarro world 612 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: because you read the PFT story they brought back how 613 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: Greg Williams and Bounty gave the whole thing. So anyway, 614 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: that's kind of interesting to me, and I just think 615 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: we all have to appreciate what we have here. One 616 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: of these guys who can seemingly play forever at that position, 617 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: which is I don't want to call it a disposable 618 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: position in this league, but it tends to be more 619 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: than a lot of others. Really good players don't last 620 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: very long at that spot, and he has, so I 621 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: get him a ton of credit. Yeah, this is a 622 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: great story that he's still going Mark. What's fascinating about 623 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: him is we talk about this all the time in 624 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: the draft. We talk about it all the time during 625 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: the season, the availability of a player, the health of 626 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: a player. Frank Gore at the University of Miami. Actually, 627 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: before he got to Miami he had had an ACL tear. 628 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: Then I think it happened twice at Miami before he 629 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: even got the NFL. I mean, he had the tag 630 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: of well, yeah, if he could just stay healthy, if 631 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: he could just stay healthy, if you just stay healthy. 632 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: Well he did, and now he's playing longer than all 633 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: those guys that stay completely healthy in college for how 634 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: many ever years and how many ever carries, and he 635 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: with those three ACL tears is still going. Yeah, it's fascinating. Well, 636 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: how about McGahee and what happened to him at the 637 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: University of Miami and he had a nice career. And 638 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: Naja Davenport. I'm not talking about the closet incident here. 639 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: Naj Davenport had a knee injury and was able to 640 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: have an NFL career as well. Jeez, every time I 641 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: bring up his name, you guys think about this stuff, 642 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,959 Speaker 1: meaning me about this stuff. Okay, I know, all right, 643 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: gut reaction, Johnny. The Patriots signed a quarterback Jamar Smith 644 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: from Louisiana Tech. Now the other guy from Michigan State 645 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: that they signed as an undrafted free agent, Brian l Work, 646 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: Is that, yeah, all right, So do either of these guys. 647 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: First of all, gut reaction to Smith's signing couldn't just 648 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: be a camp arm. But you never know. Once upon 649 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: a time they drafted Tom Brady in the sixth round 650 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: and look at him. Either these guys have a shot 651 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: to unseat Stidham and or a Hoyer who's still on 652 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: the roster present. So now they have four quarterbacks on 653 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: the roster. I wouldn't think so. Now, if you asked 654 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 1: me that a few years ago, Brian le Work, I 655 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,959 Speaker 1: would have said, Hey, l Work, he's got an opportunity. 656 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: But the last couple of years were just dreadful at 657 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: Michigan State. Now, part of that was the offense that 658 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: l Work he ran, and part of that was the 659 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: offensive line in front of him. I mean it was. 660 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: It was kind of a mess in twenty eighteen in particular, 661 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: and that's really when his confidence went down. Went down 662 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: to toilet Smith from Louisiana Tech not a how do 663 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: I put this? Um A can do some things out 664 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: of the pocket, can throw from the pocket, doesn't do 665 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: anything extremely well. See something in him? But yeah, there's 666 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: exactly I would think la Work would be a guy 667 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: that they would think would give them something more so 668 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: than Smith would. But then again, you know, we've seen 669 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: things over the years of seeing quarterbacks that you don't 670 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: think much of and all of a sudden, may where 671 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,439 Speaker 1: did this guy come from? But Smith's played a lot 672 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 1: of football Louisiana Tech and going up with the Patriots. Look, 673 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to start right away. Maybe gett the 674 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: practice squad. Maybe he's a camp arm, but I think 675 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: we'll work. He's a guy that he's got some tools. 676 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: Now he's got some tools. But I don't know if 677 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: the last two years at Michigan State just just shot 678 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 1: him to you know what, um, But that's our guy. 679 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: Tyler Marcott's dude. That's our He's dude. He's a big 680 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: spartan and he loves him some Brian lework. I gotta 681 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: talk to Marcott about going to Central Michigan and ready 682 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: for Michigan State. Yeah, it's tough, Okay, Okay, I got 683 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 1: one for your quarterbacks speaking of the Patriots, because it 684 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: didn't happen with the Patriots, and I think people were 685 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: a little surprised. The Dallas Cowboys. I was gonna ask 686 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 1: you this last night. We ran out of time. Signed 687 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton. Did you talk about this? We did not 688 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: talk about this. She We did not even discuss this. Cowboy. Yeah, 689 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: it's and he lives well, he went to TCU, right, 690 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: so it's not a stretch to say he would live 691 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: in the DFW area. So good for him that he's 692 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:04,760 Speaker 1: a cowboy. Is this leverage for the Dak Prescott negotiations? 693 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: That's what I want to know. Look, you could do 694 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: a lot worse than Andy Dalton as a quarterback in 695 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: this league when you put a good system around him, 696 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 1: good people around him. Now, does Dallas qualify for that? 697 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: All right? I need my drum roll here. I think so. Yeah, 698 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: I would think so. Better situation than what you've been 699 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: dealing within Cincinnati in the last few years. So that's good. 700 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: You know he did. Look a lot has been said 701 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: and written about him since he's been released, and you know, 702 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: five straight playoff appearances. He won a lot of games there. Now, 703 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: he didn't win playoff games, but he won a lot 704 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: of games, and so you have to give him his 705 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: due for that. Look, I just think it's interesting how 706 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 1: Jerry decides to do this when you're having these negotiations 707 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: with DAK, and Dak wants a ton of money, and 708 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: I'm not you know, I just don't know where it's 709 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,800 Speaker 1: all going. Good for them though. He's a good backup, 710 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: and yeah, we did think maybe New England was gonna 711 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,760 Speaker 1: be a lily pad for him to land on. Didn't 712 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: work out that way, so all right, let's see how 713 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: it plays out. I think that's one of those in 714 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: season stories or maybe preseason stories certainly worth watching. Look 715 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,760 Speaker 1: preseason game with Andy Dalton playing quarterback for the Cowboys, 716 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: coming in in the second quarter or whatever. I'll watch that. 717 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: I want to see how he does. Yeah, I mean 718 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: seeing guys, seeing guys in different jerseys always yeah, you know, 719 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: it kind of takes a second like, m okay, uh, 720 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: he's in the Cowboys jersey. Like that's a little weird. 721 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: And then you watch and look, Andy Dalton did some 722 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 1: really good things in Cincinnati. There's a ceiling on what 723 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: he can do. But if you if that goes down 724 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: and they're like, well, looks like we gotta go to 725 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, you gotta feel a whole lot better than 726 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: having to go to Cooper Rush. Oh god, well, he 727 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 1: who is no longer with the Cowboys by the way, right, 728 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: he's not a giant. I saw that. Oh I just 729 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: saw an entertainment note that kind of caught my aisles. 730 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: I'll share it with you later. All right, is it 731 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: my turn now? Yes, let's stick with quarterbacks here to 732 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,839 Speaker 1: Sean Kaiser, this is a trip of a question for 733 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: you and a gut reaction in his situation. He got 734 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: cut by the Raiders. What did I say? He did 735 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 1: very well in and he was the best guy in 736 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: the draft at once. He won, He won the Combine interview. 737 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: He won the Combine interview, won the comb Yeah, by 738 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: him at the Combine. I thought he was good. I 739 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: thought he was good up there at the podium. Those 740 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 1: podiums they set up that are kind of like NFL 741 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: Super Bowl Media day podiums. If people need a visual here. 742 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: And I did cruise around and uh, you know Mahomes 743 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: and Watson and I saw Kaiser. I said, I think 744 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: he won the press conference today. Now that's further proof 745 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 1: that winning the press conference does it mean squad? Does 746 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 1: it mean anything? I mean it's nice, it's nice, but 747 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: you know, winning games this justin winning games is the 748 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: key thing more than winning the press conference. And he 749 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,919 Speaker 1: did that day. But he was in that draft second 750 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,760 Speaker 1: round pick, right second round pick, second round pick, further 751 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: proof the draft is a total crap shoot. I mean, 752 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: you just don't know. He's a second round pick. I'm 753 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: sure the value was there. Second round. He can't drop 754 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 1: any low or maybe third whatever. And now he's in 755 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: need of a job, and look, a lot of the 756 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 1: jobs have been scooped up. This is a late cut 757 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 1: for the Raiders letting him go right now. Yeah, I 758 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: mean it is, but there's still there's still an opportunity 759 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: for him at some point. But it just never it 760 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 1: just never came together for him for whatever reason, whether 761 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: it was the timing, whether it was where he you know, 762 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 1: started his career in Cletely, just none of it came 763 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: together for Deshauan Kaiser. And the thing was is, if 764 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: Zayre Smith actually stays healthy at Notre Dame, there's the 765 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,320 Speaker 1: thought that maybe Kaiser doesn't even get on the field, 766 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: especially in that twenty fifteen season when he actually did 767 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: and he obviously came back in twenty sixteen, he didn't 768 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: have will Fuller anymore, and then things started to really 769 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: start kind of going down at that particular moment. But 770 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 1: that would have been his only years I Er Smiths 771 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: days healthy. Then I think a lot of people would 772 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: maybe have only seen Kaiser for that one year and 773 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: not then like okay, he's a good quarter. They would 774 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 1: look what people did was well, look what he did 775 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen. You know, Nick Martin's protecting him up front. 776 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 1: You know, he's got Quentin Nelson up front, He's got 777 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 1: all these guys up for Ronnie Stanley, all these guys 778 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 1: in front him. He's got Will Follers throwing it to 779 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 1: look at him, Look how good he is. Look when 780 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: you protect him and you do all. But then the 781 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: next year you saw what turned out to be the 782 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 1: real Deshauan. Kaiser was a guy that had to lean 783 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,720 Speaker 1: heavily on the talent around him, and he didn't have 784 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: that talent around him, and I think it ended up 785 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: showing in the way that he played that year and 786 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: then what ended up happening in the NFL. All right, 787 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 1: so next up, okay, job, well hang on, yeah, but 788 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: you throw that one at me and a couple of 789 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: other Don Shula notes because we didn't give it, We 790 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: didn't do it justice last night, I mean, the career, 791 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: so many interesting notes have come out about him, including 792 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: one that blew me away today that you know, if 793 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,919 Speaker 1: you look deeply or even not that deep, you're gonna 794 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: come up with it. But it was pretty cool and 795 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,760 Speaker 1: something you had to deal with that was kind of unique. 796 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 1: And a few other things before the close of business, 797 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 1: including then I tell you the schedule comes out Thursday 798 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: at seven, but we're gonna have it for you right 799 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 1: here at six thirty on Thursday.

This player does this and that player 807 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: does that, and I could be persuaded either way. But 808 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: when it comes to an MVP of MPG, yeah, miles 809 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 1: per gallon made my choice Chevron with tech Ron.

It kind of like jarred me a 881 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,319 Speaker 1: little bit because those of us were a little more 882 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 1: seasoned and actually watched MTV when it played music videos. 883 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,440 Speaker 1: Remember the news updates with Kurt Loader and when I 884 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 1: saw him trending I thought, did he darn please know? 885 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,840 Speaker 1: But he's seventy five years old today, Kurt Loader is 886 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: seventy five, which is just I don't like this at all. 887 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: But anyway, good for him, me away because I remember 888 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 1: because the first thing I thought it was okay, like, oh, 889 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 1: how long ago were those news updates? Those are probably 890 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:32,799 Speaker 1: the late eighties early nineties. Hold would he have been Yeah, man, 891 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 1: he was in his mid forties when he was doing 892 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 1: those heart Yeah, so he was a little long in 893 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 1: the tooth, so to speak for that network then perhaps. 894 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, all those old VJs, not all 895 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 1: of them, but some of them are on Sirius Sex 896 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 1: Sam and some of them don't sound like they used to, okay, 897 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 1: like yeah, yeah, yeah, I've heard her. I've heard her anyway, 898 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: I just sound like Rod Stewart now now I'm just kidding. 899 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 1: God bless her. She hasn't I know, I mean, and 900 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: she who knows what she's been through. I hate making 901 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 1: those kinds of comments, but yeah, it uh, I will say. 902 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: Hearing them, it does there is a sense of nostalgia 903 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 1: when you. Uh. When I'm listening and all of a 904 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 1: sudden she pops on, I was like, hey, let's do 905 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 1: the best from nineteen eighty two, and I'm like, ooh, 906 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 1: there is that sense of nostalgia, like, oh, music videos, 907 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: I remember those. Well, some of those they should have 908 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 1: MTV channel, you know, and I don't think they do, 909 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: and they should because like that whole early eight like 910 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: the first half of the eighties was just so hot 911 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 1: on MTV. And I used to sell advertising on MTV 912 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 1: locally in the Boston area. I mean, I was one 913 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: of the first jobs I had, and um, and it 914 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 1: was so cool to be able to do that. And 915 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 1: I'd have to look for like nightclubs and you know, 916 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:58,280 Speaker 1: trade schools, and I'd look everywhere for advertising prospects. All right, anyway, 917 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 1: let's get to this. Now, throw your gut reaction to me, 918 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: and then I'll give you the shoolas stuff. Go, Okay, 919 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: this is twofold number part Well, it's the same news, 920 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 1: but I'll throw it at you this way, Logan Ryan 921 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: said via Instagram, because that's the way we do things 922 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:21,880 Speaker 1: now that he will not return to the Titans. So 923 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 1: a impact on your gut reaction, the impact on the Titans, 924 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 1: b would you as the Texans, Well, Johnny to me 925 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 1: and you know better than me. He plays a role 926 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:35,360 Speaker 1: where like he can hit and he's kind of like 927 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,840 Speaker 1: a safety corner, right, He's kind of like one of 928 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 1: these guys who can come up and run support and 929 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: do some things. If you are relying on him to 930 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 1: protect that sideline and cover deep, right, that's that's not 931 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 1: a good idea at this point in his career. It's interesting, 932 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,319 Speaker 1: how boy I've said interesting too many times to night 933 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:58,479 Speaker 1: look for a synonym. So it's notable how Logan Ryan 934 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,840 Speaker 1: and Malcolm Butler go to Tennessee. I looked at a 935 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: great year last year, so I gives them a ton 936 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 1: of credit for that. But it just didn't feel the 937 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 1: same way as it did in New England? Did it? 938 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 1: No super bowls, et cetera. No Brady, I get it. 939 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: But Logan Ryan on the market, I think that he 940 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 1: could be one of those guys who steps in somewhere 941 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: where they just feel like they're a little thin, you know, 942 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 1: and he could possibly make the team. He could possibly 943 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 1: make a difference, but you cannot count on that happening. 944 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: So he'll be available to whoever has a need at 945 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 1: a reasonable price. So that's good for him. You're right, 946 00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: I don't think I mean I think he is. You're right, 947 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 1: I think he is purely a safety nickel, not even 948 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 1: like you won't even I don't think you'd even play 949 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:46,919 Speaker 1: him outside. But I think about Mike Adams. Now, Logan 950 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 1: Ryan's not as old as Mike Adams, but Mike Adams 951 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 1: came in for us and gave us some good play 952 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,839 Speaker 1: when we needed it, especially in that Buffalo playoff game. 953 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 1: We needed Mike Adams out on the field, and Mike 954 00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: gave us some good stuff. And Romeo Crenells, even the 955 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,560 Speaker 1: coordinator at the time, did not put Mike in a 956 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 1: position where he was going to feel vulnerable and that 957 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 1: he was gonna have to cover Cole Beasley in the 958 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 1: slot one on one. They could, I let's say, protect him, 959 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: but they sort of could. I think you have to 960 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,480 Speaker 1: do that with Logan Ryan. I think there's some good 961 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 1: football left in him, but I do think you have 962 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 1: to protect him. In last year, they were just the 963 00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 1: Titans couldn't protect him at all times, especially when we 964 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 1: put three receivers with hop Stills and Fuller out in 965 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 1: the field. They had to put Logan Ryan on Kenny Stills. 966 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 1: And that's just the mismatch one on one now, But 967 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 1: I do think Logan Ryan's got some good football in him. 968 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: But I just think with what the Texans did in 969 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 1: bringing him Michael Thomas, along with Eric Murray, along with 970 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,319 Speaker 1: Jalen Watkins, bringing back Vernon Hargraves, drafting John Reid, I 971 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,239 Speaker 1: think they found some guys that can play that nickel role, 972 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:56,959 Speaker 1: the interior passing game and play that. So I don't 973 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 1: think Logan Ryan has anything really for the Texans, but 974 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 1: do you think he's got some football left? And I'd 975 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 1: be glad to see him go. He always played pretty 976 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:06,840 Speaker 1: well for the Titans. I didn't think he was superb, 977 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,719 Speaker 1: but always felt like he played pretty well, especially especially 978 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 1: when he would blitz that corner. He got really good 979 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 1: at blitz in the edge, which was a problem for us, 980 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 1: especially in twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen. Okay, a couple of 981 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: minutes left, cheese, we're running out of time. We need 982 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:24,760 Speaker 1: a longer show. Darn it. Stuff he coached against George 983 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: Hallis and Bill Belichick. Did you see this one today? Yeah? 984 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 1: You know that. That's a great note right there. My goodness, wow, 985 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 1: who would would that? There's nobody else that would even 986 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 1: come close to that, because he faced Belichick in in 987 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,880 Speaker 1: the early nineties obviously, and then he coached against Hollis 988 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: when Hallis was with the Bears. It would have been 989 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: the mid to late sixties when when Chula was with 990 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 1: the Colts. I'd have to, you know, the way to 991 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: do it is the bridge. See when Hollis's last years were, 992 00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 1: and just see who last long enough to hit, you know, 993 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: to match up with Belichick in Cleveland. That's just that's it. 994 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 1: But I he's the only one I can think of 995 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. I should have looked 996 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: this up, and I apologize. The other one that I 997 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: found interesting was Florio brought up the fact that Zonka 998 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 1: and Kick you know, they went to the WUFL, and 999 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 1: that was that was tough on the Dolphins. You know, 1000 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 1: so free agency obviously wasn't a thing, but that was 1001 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 1: a thing the WUFL, which had. By the way, my 1002 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,800 Speaker 1: favorite note on the WUFL is there was a Houston 1003 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 1: Texans team that didn't even last a season, but there 1004 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 1: was a Houston Texans in the WUFL. I remember going 1005 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 1: into an office of one of the executives at the 1006 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,840 Speaker 1: Texans and there was an old media guide there that 1007 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,400 Speaker 1: said Houston Texans. I said, what is this Because I 1008 00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:47,680 Speaker 1: knew a little bit about the WUFL in the seventies. 1009 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: That was like a USFL in the seventies, folks, but 1010 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,839 Speaker 1: they played up against the NFL and it just never 1011 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 1: never panned out. Obviously. Well, my favorite is my favorite 1012 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 1: WFL story was there was a receiver and I alreadycall 1013 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: his name, but he didn't trust his hands all that well, 1014 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 1: so he decided that he was going to you've seen 1015 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: receivers now, this is obviously before the tacrifice took him. No, 1016 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: he took thumb tacks and he shaped them down and 1017 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,319 Speaker 1: he taped them to his fingers and he said he 1018 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,120 Speaker 1: never got caught. And he said one referee looked at 1019 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 1: him one time. Is near the end of the year. 1020 00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 1: He caught a ball and he caught the back end 1021 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: of the ball and the ref guy looked at him, 1022 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 1: and I was like a first down and just that 1023 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 1: that was the WFL. Everybody just just looked the other way. 1024 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:37,239 Speaker 1: You can't get the ball off your hands, like you're 1025 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: shaking it like busted. Yeah that is beautiful, Yeah you 1026 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 1: could do that. One of the damn Marino was on today. 1027 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 1: I don't remember. I think he was on PFT and 1028 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 1: he said, he said, my first memory was of Shula 1029 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 1: was coming for mini camp. He said, first time I 1030 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:55,920 Speaker 1: met him, I walked in his office. The funny part 1031 00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 1: was before the draft, I never talked to Coach Shula, 1032 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 1: none of the scouts or anything, because I didn't think 1033 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:01,840 Speaker 1: they thought I was gonna be available for them to 1034 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:04,120 Speaker 1: draft me. So the first time I really talked to 1035 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: Coach Shula besides on the phone draft day when he 1036 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 1: said how'd you like to be a Dolphin, was in 1037 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,320 Speaker 1: his office coming to mini camp. Can you imagine that 1038 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,760 Speaker 1: going through this the whole time and people don't understand 1039 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 1: how much of a legend he was. I mean, he 1040 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: was like on the Mount rushmore of the NFL coaches 1041 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 1: and then Marinos should still be by the way it 1042 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,719 Speaker 1: should be absolutely. Marino then said that Shula said to him, 1043 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: I believe in you. I want you to work that 1044 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 1: way so you can come in and compete and actually 1045 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 1: feel like you're going to be the starting quarterback. And 1046 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: then Marino said that just gave me a lot of 1047 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,960 Speaker 1: confidence raft the bat. That was my first meeting with coach. 1048 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:42,960 Speaker 1: Can you imagine that going through a whole draft process, 1049 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,359 Speaker 1: especially them back then in the eighties, and you don't 1050 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:47,880 Speaker 1: meet Don Shula and all a sudden he calls you 1051 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:50,359 Speaker 1: on draft day like, hey, Danny, how do you want 1052 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 1: to be a dolphin? I mean, that just would have 1053 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 1: been so surreal for a guy like Shula, that would 1054 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: have been Well, they had David Woodley. They definitely needed 1055 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:00,879 Speaker 1: some help. All right, Johnny, that's it for today.
