38
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: the week. I couldn't help that. The the money drop

39
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: today that we have ball control issues goes back to

40
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 1: what we learned about Mark and his underpants last week show.

41
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: Last week's program, good nice job by Brandon um by

42
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: the Brandon behind the glass. By the way, Big game

43
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: tough one loss for the Shield and Softball last Thursday. Yeah, um,

44
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: really a great comeback that just fell short. But you know,

45
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: Brandon had nothing to hang his head about. He did

46
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: you go three for four or four for four four four,

47
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: four for four? Fella fell one double shy of the

48
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: cycle and hit a grand slam. Wow, Conor making the

49
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: most of his uh his playing time, Brandon. And I've

50
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: always said, Brandon, this is a meritocracy. You bought yourself

51
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: some PTE two with that game. That's what I'm talking about.

52
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: But you know, I have to say I'm still up

53
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: set with that last ap out though. Yeah, yeah, I

54
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: was going straight for the whole. For those that were

55
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: either watching on television or at the game, we were

56
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: down a few runs in the last inning, with the

57
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 1: tying run at the plate in the form of McGuinness,

58
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: and um, he puts one up the gap. Maybe the

59
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: game's tied. He scorches one, but it hits the picture

60
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: right in the Shin gets credited with an RBI single.

61
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: But you're left to think what would have been if

62
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: you just would have gotten under it a little bit.

63
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: I hope that guy shouldn't broke He's a competitor. That's

64
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: why we call him Irishman. Well it's not why we

65
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: called the Irishman, but that's who he is. Great game, Brandon.

66
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: Today's Show with Connor Or Now now I'm married man, congratulations,

67
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: thank you. It's uh, it's weird. It's being married is

68
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: like a totally different set of circumstances. Now all the

69
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: cards have changed. I like, it does it change? It

70
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: isn't any different. I found like the major difference is

71
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: like before I was married, I was like, man, like,

72
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 1: I want to work out and look like Brad Pitt

73
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: from Flight Club, And now I'm kind of like, I

74
00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: just hope I turned out to look like the dad

75
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: from the Wonder Years, Like I just, you know, like

76
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: a little bit menacing and vaguely in shape. So from

77
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: prime Brad Pitt to yeah, that makes it. It makes

78
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: sense because you know, when I saw you at the

79
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: super Bowl and all the other times I've seen you,

80
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: I always think, Wow, this is a guy that's working

81
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: hard to look like he's got a solid bod. Um

82
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: Today's Show, The Three Legged Dog, a unique three legged

83
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: dog here in the studio, Um Connor, since he's here,

84
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a very Connor centric really weak.

85
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: It's Connor Week here around the NFL podcast, uh, and

86
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about one week long um column idea

87
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: that Connor has. Who are the Cinderellas, Who are the

88
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: Pumpkins of the upcoming two thousand sixteen seasons? So there

89
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: are teams every year, every single year, there are teams

90
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: that you know they were not good the previous year,

91
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: and then they make some moves that get the fan

92
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: base and also football pundits like our elves excited. And

93
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: Connor cuts through all the bs and he's gonna say

94
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: which one should you actually have high hopes for that

95
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: about somethings it up right? That was like the best

96
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: because I was trying to explain it to Greg for

97
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: like a week when I was writing it, and it

98
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: just didn't hit home. But if I had just said

99
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: what you said now that it would have been the issue.

100
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: Wasn't need a headline that that's not gonna fit in

101
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: uh in thirty words or less or way less than

102
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: thirty words, like separating this Cinderells pumpkins, that's good pumpkins. Also, Um,

103
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: we'll get into some other things, other kind of Connor minutia.

104
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: We'll get it a little later in the show. Put

105
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: it that way, feel free to turn off now there,

106
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: But before we do any of that, it was despite

107
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: this being the slow time in the NFL, there's a

108
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: lot of news. So irishmen, let's get to the baby

109
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: rose Bud. That's right when there's there's the tease little Rosebud.

110
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: That was, of course from the famous of a Citizen

111
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: Kane who which was on the A F I Top

112
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: one or Horrible Movies. Uh you know connor Ores movie

113
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: review of the Classics, which was supposed to be a

114
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: offseason series for the show. We haven't heard much about it,

115
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: so a little later in the show, stick a pin

116
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: in it. Now we'll find out what's going on with

117
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,599
Speaker 1: horrible movies. People are are a little nervous. People are

118
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: asking questions. I've I've seen the Reddit post, but I

119
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: fear not. I've I've been in the lab. I'm working,

120
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: you know, I've I've been studying pen in the paper

121
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: in the lab, trying to get the damn label off.

122
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: We name the song uh dr Dre good good good.

123
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: You know the first one he came back with aftermath,

124
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: what was it? Forgot about dre all right, here we go.

125
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: Let's do some news. I'll give you a half credit there, Greg.

126
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: Let us start with Richard Sherman, who was interviewed by

127
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: our own guys, Mike Robinson, who is a former teammate

128
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: in Seattle of the h of Richard Sherman and uh.

129
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: The topic of Marshawn Lynch came up when this interview

130
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: took place at Robinson's youth football camp. Will Beast Mode

131
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: remain retired? Now? The assumption for a lot of people,

132
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: you know, maybe not, this wasn't the smartest thing to do,

133
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: is that once Beast Mode puts up the Instagram Twitter

134
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: photo of his cleats hanging from the the cables, and

135
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: I guess the Seahawks put him on the reserve retired list,

136
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: that it is over. But Richard Sherman points out, maybe

137
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: maybe we should just pump the brakes on. Assuming Marshaw

138
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: Lynch's NFL career is over. Here's a quote. I don't

139
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: put anything past him. He's about as predictable as a

140
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: pair of dice. So I don't try call I don't

141
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: try to call his plays. Marshawn Lynch potentially still in

142
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: the picture, that would be a big boost counter to

143
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. Right still, stud they said, as predictable as

144
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: a pair of dice. Is. One of our readers pointed out,

145
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: so he has a one in thirty six chance of

146
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: actually coming back to the NFL. But that seems about right.

147
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: But that it's it would be such a great Lynch

148
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: thing to do, right, and and it helps it's a

149
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: win win for him because he has no patience for

150
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: any of that offseason minusha in the training camp and

151
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: getting coached up again. If exactly different, different, totally different. Uh.

152
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: And and if you could just show up in November,

153
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: played three or four games and helps Seattle get back

154
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: into the playoffs or into the super Bowl, I think

155
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: you love. That's how you would picture it, that he

156
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: would sit out all camp, the season would get going,

157
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: would materialize. Yeah, I think so too. If ever there

158
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: was a Lynch come back, I think it's coming after

159
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving or it's November. Look Sherman wasn't saying he had

160
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: any sort of insight information. This is the off season,

161
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: it's quiet, this is it's not like huge news. But

162
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: this paired with Michael Bennett last week or two weeks ago,

163
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: said he thought Lynch was retired for right now, that

164
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: he might make an appearance, but you think he's done

165
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: for right now. So these are guys who know him

166
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: pretty well that think maybe maybe he could just come back.

167
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 1: I don't know if the Seahawks. This sounds crazy, but

168
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if the Seahawks he would necessarily want

169
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: him back. He also has a exorbitant contract at the moment,

170
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: which in theory he'd go back on. I don't know.

171
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: I think they'd have to cut him and he'd go

172
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: somewhere else. Who wants to do that? The financials of it.

173
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: That's a good point. But when I'm just strictly looking

174
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: at the roster, Thomas Rawls was, you know, a borderline

175
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: sensation when he started playing, but then he suffered would

176
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: look like a pretty serious lower leg injury, uh ankle injury.

177
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: And you don't know what kind of guy he's gonna

178
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: be coming back. Uh, Kristen Michael, you're gonna get excited

179
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 1: about him. I'm not going to. Uh. They had they

180
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: had the rookie that they drafted. Uh three rookies. Oh

181
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: they Oh yeah, Alex Collins, Zack Brooks and c J

182
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,599
Speaker 1: helped me with the last pro sise, pro sise. I

183
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: think they're excited about But you don't, you know, you don't.

184
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: It's not like it's a loaded backfield. No, But I

185
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: I don't think I think his teammates love him. I

186
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: don't know if the Seahawks loved him by the end

187
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: of it, and they had a back and forth relationship

188
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: between the front office, the coaching staff and Marshall Lynch

189
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: throughout his time, but I think they thought, you know,

190
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: we got a nice ron of Marshawn Lynch that was

191
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,959
Speaker 1: that's over all right, Moving on a lot to get

192
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: to you guys. Keep the train rolling. Tom Brady's lawyers

193
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: will file a petition or is it a three legged dog?

194
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: Three legged train? Meanwhile, on the throne of sleeves, Tom

195
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: Brady's lawyers will file a petition Monday for a rehearing

196
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: of his suspension. This is still happening. He's against the

197
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: NFL before the US Second Circuit Court of Appeals in

198
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: New York. Former U S listener General Ted Olson told

199
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: ABC News and an exclusive Old Ted Bomb in an

200
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: exclusive interview that Brady's team will petition for a rehearing

201
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: on bonk, a request in French that's on bench. I

202
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: don't know why we don't just say, on bench, let's

203
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: get rid of the on bond. Listening to Ian Rappaport

204
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: enough saying the words on bonk is just ridiculous, and

205
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: come back to me. A request for all of the

206
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: active judges on the Second Circuit to hear the case.

207
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: Re hear the case. This is olsen old ted bomb.

208
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: The facts here are so drastic and so apparent that

209
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: the court should rehear it. Uh, he told ABC News four.

210
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: Game suspension was reinstated by Court of Appeals. This is

211
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's last chance to duck this thing. Uh. Will

212
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: it work out? Greg? Well? I want to say it

213
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like it's his last chance that I don't

214
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: understand this issue very well at all, But all that

215
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: I've read about it is that this is a huge

216
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: long shot, like less than half of one percent. Actually,

217
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 1: uh is reheard like this. But if this doesn't happen,

218
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: then then then they could try to position petition to

219
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, or there's all sorts of things that

220
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: you and they could just don't do everything. I think

221
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: the idea is that Tom Brady and his lawyers are

222
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: gonna fight this in every way possible just to hope

223
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: to get another stay or something like that. I think

224
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: it's a win for all of us because if you

225
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: actually read all the decisions like things that lawyers write

226
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: in those things are full of just the great explosive language,

227
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 1: like they just everything has like a like an adverb

228
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: like wildly irresponsible or like abhorrent, lee unfair, and like

229
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: I really like that. I'm a fan of of legally,

230
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: so I'm in on this. Do you like that? Like

231
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: just digging through all that minutia? Alright, you can write,

232
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 1: I think I have except for today. You've been all

233
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: over this story. So we'll see what happens. But Tom

234
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:30,839
Speaker 1: Brady clearly exhausting his legal capabilities before he takes this band. Uh.

235
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: Let's move on to literally the opposite of the New

236
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: England Patriots, to the Cleveland Browns, who announced on Monday

237
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: that they have released wide receiver Brian Heartline, the veteran

238
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: twenty nine years old and former um what do we

239
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: call it the Heartline? Well, I had a theory. You know,

240
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 1: West's Dalton scale took off, that was a big hit,

241
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: and we had I had something called the Heartline. This

242
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 1: is the heart and the heartline WHOA or Brian until

243
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: he signs with another team, He's dead. If Brian's out

244
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: there listening, I don't approve of this. One's not um.

245
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: The heartline was. It was actually specific to his contract

246
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,319
Speaker 1: that he signed in Miami. It was a six and

247
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: a half million dollar a year. Hey, this is kind

248
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: of the I'm a starting wide receiver six and a

249
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: half million dollar contract, and every contract signed that was

250
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: a receiver after that. I had to kind of go

251
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: over it because it's like, well, we're a little like

252
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 1: that's the medium, that's like the lowest level of starting

253
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 1: wide receiver contract. We gotta go over the heartline. M

254
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 1: So yeah, and heartline with a bad Cleveland team last

255
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 1: year five twenty three yards and forty six sketches, two

256
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: touchdowns in twelve games before suffering a season ending injury.

257
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: This is again moved by the Browns and Connor. You

258
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: are you identify as a Cleveland fan? Uh? Once again,

259
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: A signed a useful player of Brian Hartland. No one's

260
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: gonna go crazy about him, but they don't have any

261
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: wide receiver depth. Really when you factor in you got

262
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 1: Corey Coleman, of course brought in ultimate right away now

263
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: the number one guy and Josh Gordon floating somewhere till prior.

264
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: Is this another move? Is Are the brown just kind

265
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: of just tanking and just letting all the kids play

266
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: and seeing what sticks during a two and fourteen? Yeah?

267
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: I think so. I mean this is like, uh, I

268
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: like the Browns draft because they almost borrowed philosophies from

269
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: like the three or four best GMS and football. What

270
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: they're doing right now is just letting a bunch of

271
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: cheap young guys knock each other off the roster. And

272
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: you know, Heartline stands in the way of getting planked.

273
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: On the other thing, I didn't like those that they

274
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: knew that they were going to draft that many wide receivers.

275
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: They always say, give a guy a chance to actually

276
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: get into a camp, maybe a little bit before the

277
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: turn of the star in the dead period. And now

278
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: poor Heartline is just kind of floating around this Memorial

279
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: Day weekend. You know, what are you gonna do? Yeah,

280
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: we did the uh NFL dot com projected starters NFL

281
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: dot cop slash starters. Heartline not on the starting lineup,

282
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: but I just right now put rookie to be named later.

283
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: You have Cole, but you have Andrew Hawkins, who's not

284
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: a lock to make the team, but I think he'll

285
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: make it. He's played with Hugh Jackson before. And then

286
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: he have a late round rookie pick they are counting

287
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: on essentially playing starter snaps unless it's Terrell prior someone

288
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: like Jordan Payton or Richard Higgins. And these guys are

289
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: fifth round pick rookies that you're saying, Okay, you're gonna

290
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 1: go play six hundred snaps for us. Most likely if

291
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: they are a disaster in the off season, then the

292
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: Browns will just signed someone like a heartline, I think

293
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: in August to fill the gap. This again reminds me

294
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: when you see this all the time, and old Bill

295
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: Parcels is um uh. Guys like Brian Hartline can be

296
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 1: viewed as what he called progress stoppers. The guy that's

297
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 1: around thirty is not a star player or a big

298
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: time player, and really ultimately he's keeping younger guys from

299
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: showing whether they can play or not. So who's the heartline? Now?

300
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: That was kind of the basic level of like a

301
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: starting wide receiver in the NFL. Trying to think who's

302
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: signed in this Richard Matthews. That's interesting. It's kind of

303
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,239
Speaker 1: an up and coming so that's a it's a little confusing.

304
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: I like where you're going, Dan, I'm gonna go with

305
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: Mohammed Sandu if I feel like that's a good one.

306
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: I feel like Mohamed Sanu. It's like a role player

307
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: that got that nice contract and now if you're a

308
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: wide receiver as a free agent next, ye're like, I

309
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: should make more than he only he only had four

310
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: you know, he only had five hundred yards. He had

311
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: one good season. That's kind of Heartland got kind of

312
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 1: a representative contract for his skill level at the time

313
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: of his signing with Miami. D snow get overpaid a

314
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: little bit in Atlanta. Doesn't that mess up the well?

315
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: Like the Dalton scale, it's it's tough to im perfect science. Uh.

316
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: Moving on, Ryan Fitzpatrick has been at the center of

317
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: a messy contract UH stalemate with the Jets for months now.

318
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: But we have heard, you know, next to nothing from

319
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: the man himself. By the way, Connor used to cover

320
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: the Jets. Uh, you did famously. Did you know that

321
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick went to Harvard? This is the first time

322
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: hearing in this anyway. What I'm trying to say he's

323
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: a smart cookie, and he has stayed out of the

324
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 1: press during this, uh, this messy squabble. He did resurface, however,

325
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: at a charity golf outing hosted by Willie Cologne on Monday.

326
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: I love charity golf outings because it's the only way

327
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: to get news this time of year. I love Willie

328
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: Cologne too. By the way, big will you like him?

329
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: He was the neighbor of mine. We went to We

330
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: went to the same shopright, Liquors. You got a good

331
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: Willie story. I it was like before Memorial Day weekend

332
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,959
Speaker 1: or Labor Day weekend once and I remember seeing all

333
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: the employees like following him around the store and he

334
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: had like a giant old school Charlotte like Larry Johnson Jersey. Right,

335
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: it's amazing, It's amazing. Yeah, that's package store. That's what

336
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: we used to call with Massachusetts packies liquor store they open.

337
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: Is it closed in New Jersey on Sundays though it's

338
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: some of the most bit like insane byzantine Northeast liquor laws.

339
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: Was that for a while, Well, it's Pennsylvania because you

340
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: can't sell beer and liquor in the same location and

341
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: you can't sell anything on Sunday. Right. Massachusetts has similar

342
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: or or the same laws. It's insane that they're living

343
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: that way. It's the year two thousand sixty. Wake up, sheep,

344
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: bo I went, he was yelling, but he has a

345
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: point anyway. So Ryan Fitzpatrick spoke to serious x M

346
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 1: NFL radio at Big Willie's Golf outing. Uh. He said that, um,

347
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, he's definitely playing this year. Uh. They asked

348
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: him about Well, let's let's hear it from Ryan Fitzpatrick himself.

349
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: He was asked about some of those things thrown out

350
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 1: by his camp. I assume retirement rumors. I'll play. I'll

351
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: rather not play than get get hosed in my contract situation.

352
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 1: This is what he said about the retirement rumors. I

353
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: want to play. You know, I love playing the game football.

354
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: I had a great time, probably my my best season

355
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: last year in terms of how much fun I had

356
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: with the guys you know out there every Sunday and um.

357
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: So it's just it's something I still really enjoyed doing

358
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 1: and something I want to continue to do. It's been

359
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 1: widely it's widely believed that the Jets are offering around

360
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: eight to ten million dollars. Uh, he's looking for probably

361
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: close to double that. And uh again, you know we've

362
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: talked about this a lot on this show. Um Connor.

363
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 1: The idea that I could see. He threw thirty one

364
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns last year, he got along famous, he kind of

365
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: saved the Jets his asses after uh the i K

366
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 1: incident with Geno Smith and and he looks up and

367
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: you know, a guy like Kirk Cousins making twenty million

368
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: this year and the Jets want to pay him less

369
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: than half that. I could see why he's trying to

370
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: play hardball, even if it probably won't work. There's no

371
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: reason for him. I mean, you know, he already knows

372
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 1: the offense. He already has relationships with the best two

373
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: receivers that he's gonna be working with in and tight end,

374
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: and so why does he need to be there. I

375
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: mean a lot of veterans too, just like not having

376
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: to do this stuff in in May and June. He's

377
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: the quarterback. It's a little different when you're the quarterback.

378
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: You're trying to get TIMEI down some of these receivers.

379
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: You know, obviously Marshall and Deckers had a broken leg

380
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: this time that last year he didn't really even show

381
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 1: up n till training camp. That's fair, that's fair. I

382
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: thought this this if you're a Jets fan as you are, Dan,

383
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: I thought this was a legitimate um item here today

384
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: on Monday, that I would feel even better about Ryan

385
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick porting Like every every time we've been talking about Fitzpatrick,

386
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: we just assume he's gonna be back. Now, hearing from him,

387
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: it really made me assume that he's going to be

388
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,400
Speaker 1: back because I read these comments as like I'm gonna

389
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: be on the Jets. Yeah, and and I and I

390
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 1: wrote in the piece we have up that you know,

391
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: he didn't sound in terms of tone or what he

392
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: said angry or bitter. It seems like he still gets

393
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: at this. This is just a business situation that's not

394
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: really going to plan. Uh. Just I've been saying it

395
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: for weeks now and months. If he if if the

396
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: Jets are offering ten and he wants sixteen, you know,

397
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: just give him twelve or thirteen to be done with it.

398
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: Come on, Why is life had to be so complicated?

399
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: I think they're offered him eight or nine or something. Negotiator, Dan, though,

400
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: I like the way you think I thought he was

401
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: making a statement to his teammates out there too, kind

402
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: of like, hey, don't forget about me, I'll be there soon.

403
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 1: But yes, it was just there. Happened to be Willie

404
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: Cologne's golf function today in serious radio. Was there for

405
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: some wild reason. There's also that like period of brief confusion.

406
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: We're like, I think it was like Decker said, well,

407
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm fine with Gino and then but I don't understand Hackenburg,

408
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 1: and that's a Brandon Marshall was like, Okay, well I'm

409
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: great with Hackenburg, but I don't understand you. And like,

410
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: nobody knows who's going to be the starter of this team.

411
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: It's gonna be Bryce Petty shot he's not making it.

412
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: That reminds me of like two years ago and somebody

413
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: that shall not be named from this network predicted and

414
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: around this time of year that Taj Boyd would be

415
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: the Jets week one started, he was cut like fourteen

416
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: weeks later. He was once number eight on mels big board.

417
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: Christian Hackenberg, which was once number one, I believe, so

418
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 1: what Jevin sneed was number one once? Uh. Moving on,

419
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: the former coach of the New York Jets is Rex Ryan. Uh,

420
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: and he likes to talk, as we know, and Greg

421
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: he likes to talk, and Greg doesn't like to hear it.

422
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll tell you what. Greg wrote a post on

423
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: your rare Sunday shift that was that by the way,

424
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: but I like a Sunday shift. No one. You know,

425
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 1: you're kind of off on your own. You're just doing

426
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: your own thing. It's quiet. Your family's looking for He

427
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: was like, where is Papa? I worked? I worked that

428
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: I'm writing about Rex Ryan and may where a lot

429
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: of these I did have someone. I did have someone

430
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: respond to me when I when a J A G

431
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: I A post went up. You know that he's separating

432
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 1: from the pack. Someone just responded like go outside anyway.

433
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 1: So Rex talk to Don Banks of SA dot com.

434
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: Uh shock Lawson, of course, the first round pick Undergone

435
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: underwent shoulder surgery last week, which the Bill has caught

436
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: a lot of bad pr for. Rex says it doesn't

437
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: change his long term outlook of the defender. That's part

438
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: of the deal with Shack. We drafted him for the

439
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: long haul. Uh success, not for one season, they say

440
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: me and Doug Whale, he shared the blame your damn right,

441
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: we do we'll share the blame. That's fine. That is

442
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: such a Rex is um uh. And then a little

443
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: later in the interview, Odell Beckham comes up. When on

444
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 1: the subject of Sammy Watkins, of course, who suffered the

445
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 1: uh foot injury that's gonna lay him out for most

446
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: of the summer. Ryan compared Walkings to well Odell Beckham,

447
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 1: who missed a bunch of practices we remember because of

448
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 1: hamstring issues as a rookie before he blew up. Here's

449
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: Rex what he said about that. The Beckham kid came

450
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: out of came out the same year and he missed

451
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: how many games with the hamstring issue. Believe me, I

452
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: was trying to trade for him when he had the hamstring.

453
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: I was reading the papers and I was like, well, hell,

454
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: we'll take him. But Samy's not gonna miss anytime. He's

455
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 1: gonna be ready to roll when it matters. Ryan said, Gregg,

456
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: tell us why you're annoyed by Rex. So it's just

457
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: such a Rex answer. It's distracting from the entire point.

458
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: It's making himself look like a hero. I saw headlines

459
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: that were like like the Jets, the Jets could have

460
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: had Odell Beckham. You know, Rex Here's how I translate. Yeah,

461
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: here's how I translate. I believe me. I was trying

462
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 1: to trade with for him when he had the hamstring.

463
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: I was reading the papers. Uh maybe once in the

464
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: office or two. Uh. He brought it up to John

465
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: Ezac like I told you we should have taken Odell back. Like, John,

466
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: wake up, wake up, I have an idea like this.

467
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 1: This whole quote is a him sticking at the John

468
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: zick once again, trying to make himself. It's not like

469
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: they picked up the phone and tried to trade for

470
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: Beckham because they know that was completely illogical and impossible.

471
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: No one is trading their first round rookie well receiver

472
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks into his career. And it just

473
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: distracts from the point, which is that Sammy Watkins has

474
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: heard all the time and that they took a number

475
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: one draft pick that they said literally right afterwards, the

476
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: shoulder is not a concern about Shack Lawson. And he

477
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: gets a surgery that week, and now Rex is backing

478
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: up and just saying, WHOA put it on me, Put

479
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: on the blame on me. You know, Reggie Raglan would

480
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: have been our first round pick anyway. He threw that

481
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: one and too, so we feel like we got two

482
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: first round pick. Well, I feel like I have a

483
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: master's degree in Rex and and Connor might even have

484
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: any beat because he actually covered the man. Connor, what

485
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: do you think? It's not even half truths RECs, it's

486
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: like half thoughts. Like he's like it's almost like a

487
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: half speed Robin Williams. Like there's a lot of bizarre

488
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: stream of consciousness stuff going on. And I didn't think

489
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: he just doesn't remember a lot of the things that

490
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 1: he's saying, even at the beginning of a sentence, and

491
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: so that's what gets him in troublesome. Well, we all

492
00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: tell this is a you know, famous that Joan Didion quote. Uh,

493
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: Chris Wesley would appreciate that one. You know that we

494
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 1: all tell ourselves stories in order to live. Like everyone

495
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: does that a little bit. You kind of recraft your

496
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: own uh narrative of your life, uh, in order to

497
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 1: sort of fit your needs on somewhere. I think Rex

498
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: just does that in a really extreme way publicly, Like

499
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: I think he believes all this, like he is the

500
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 1: star of the Rex Ryan Show in his mind, and

501
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: he creates these little little stories and that's how it goes.

502
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 1: But the best part was there were like three teams

503
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: that did try to trade with the Giants, and the

504
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: Jets weren't one of them. Like they I mean, so

505
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: you're just making it up at this point. Well, one

506
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: of the things they did on that Sunday shift, Dan

507
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 1: is you have a little more time, was go read

508
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: the newspapers and you know, you check out the different articles.

509
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: Maybe you're not going to do a post on it.

510
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: But one thing I saw in the Buffalo News was

511
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: a very anti Rex and Wiie column from one of

512
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: their columnists that like, we can't trust these guys anymore,

513
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 1: that they've they've run out of they've run out of belief.

514
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: So I thought that was interesting. Then I saw a

515
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: mail bag too with a lot of bills fans essentially

516
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 1: having the same sentiment that that these guys like they

517
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: don't know what they're doing, or you know, we can't

518
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: really trust what they're seeing publicly, they're just building up.

519
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: And it started to remind me of two thousand fourteen

520
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: in New York or even two thousand thirteen, that Rex

521
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,920
Speaker 1: has not really gotten out of that phase. It's almost

522
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: like it's carried over or or whatever honeymoon phase there

523
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: was in Buffalo, it's over. There was. And I remember

524
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: when I last summer when I was writing the pain

525
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 1: Rankings interviewing Luke Russer, who is the son of Tim Russer,

526
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: who was perhaps the most famous Bills fan passed away

527
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: uh suddenly a few years back. And Luke is a

528
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: die hard as well, And I remember asking about Rex

529
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: because if you remember the excitement at this time last year,

530
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: they had rolled out stories that the jet that the

531
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: Bills had set records for how many season tickets they

532
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 1: had sold. And Luke said, Oh, if Rex even gets

533
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 1: us to the playoffs, We're gonna build him a statue.

534
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: That's how excited people were. But it's funny how the

535
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 1: spell wears off quickly because he never changes the tune.

536
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 1: It's all the same. Like we've seen this play out

537
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: really slowly and painfully in New York over five years.

538
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: And they're not an untalented team either. If they if

539
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: they managed to go ten and six, then everyone will

540
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: love him again. But I just think he his act

541
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 1: in the way that it ended in New York and

542
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: it started here in Buffalo, that if they don't, if

543
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: they go seven and nine, there's gonna be serious and resting.

544
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 1: It might be up too and out and people forget

545
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: and we should move on. But people forget that Rex

546
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: had four straight seasons with the Jets where they didn't

547
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: make the playoffs before he got fired. And he only

548
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: got all that rope because they went to the a

549
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: SEC title game the first two years he was there.

550
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: So really, now he's a five year loser and the

551
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: Bills didn't get any of those the playoff glories, so

552
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: there's no rope to be had, so it kind of

553
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: makes sense that he barely survived last year. All right,

554
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 1: Moving on? Uh, The NFL Owner Spring meetings started this week. UH.

555
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: One big item on the list. If you love the

556
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and NFL, UH, you know what's going on

557
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: in the world of the NFL, right, greg is where

558
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty three, fifty four, and fifty five will

559
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: take place. UH. That will be decided this week in

560
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 1: Charlotte at the meetings. And UH here are the options Atlanta, Miami,

561
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: l A, Tampa, and New Orleans. And of those five, Atlanta, Miami,

562
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: and l A are considered favorites. Atlanta and l A

563
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 1: because still have new stadiums, which the NFL has shown

564
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: time and time again now that they reward you for that.

565
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 1: And Miami, who after years of not putting in the

566
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: money into their facility until the point where the animal said,

567
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 1: we're never gonna bring the Super Bowl back here until

568
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: you do it. Now they've pumped in almost half a

569
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: billion dollars into fixing up that stadium. Miami, they'll probably

570
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: get one. And Greg, that angers you, doesn't it because

571
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: that means Tampa who cares? But the New Orleans Saints

572
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: and they're Super Dome could be ignored. I'm not. I'm

573
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: not giving up on the Saints pulling off and upset.

574
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: This is gonna happen Tuesday, So we'll be quick on it.

575
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: We can always we can talk about it afterwards. Tampa

576
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: has no chance. Atlanta and l A are locks probably

577
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: for the final two of those Super Bowls because l

578
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: A won't be ready for the first one and maybe

579
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,959
Speaker 1: not the second, and so it's really the first one

580
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: that will be Miami versus New Orleans. I think they

581
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: might want to have a sentimental give Tom Benson, who

582
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: the league likes. He's eighty eight years old. People love

583
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: New Orleans, you know, Tom Benson Stephen Ross. Let's go

584
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 1: with Benson. I mean, give the great city of New Orleans.

585
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: That should be the city that has a Super Bowl

586
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: just scheduled every five years or whatever. Miami can wait.

587
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: South Florida, well, I mean, I'm with you. Of all

588
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl cities that I've been to, five now,

589
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: New Orleans was the best suited for the week of

590
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: insanity that is Super Bowl Week. But you have to

591
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: factor in there was probably some you know, handshake agreements

592
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: with Dolphins ownership, Gloria Stefan, Mark Anthony and the entire

593
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: sound machine down there. And if you fix up this dump,

594
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: we're gonna take care of you. Because generally, yeah, that's

595
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: generally how it works. But I think New Orleans has

596
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: a small chance to pull the upset and get the

597
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: third Little Atlanta in l A. Those seem like locks.

598
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: I think that the Superdome still grounded because of the

599
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: power outage. How about that. I think it's a decade

600
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: long grounding. They're gonna get please. And lastly, guys, one

601
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: last note. J J. Watt announced this weekend that he

602
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: has a new logo, um it is. It was posted

603
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: on his Instagram account with the uh caption my logo,

604
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: my vision, my goals, hashtag hunt greatness, and it's to

605
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: Jay's back to back. Uh. If you turn it over,

606
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: it kind of looks like, oh, hell, I don't know

607
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: a butterfly. M Uh. Didn't they say it was something

608
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: to do with to the Wisconsin. The logos designed to

609
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: look like rising buildings built from the bottom up, a

610
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: metaphor for work ethic for what This is from ESPN,

611
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: who was a walk on before he received a scholarship

612
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: at the University of Wisconsin. And here's here's the corker

613
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: Connor or I'm gonna read the quote from J. J.

614
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: Watty told this too. I guess Darren Ravelle, I have

615
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 1: all always dreamed of being able to use my experience

616
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 1: to create something truly great, something I believed would legitimately

617
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: improve people's performance in training. I wanted the ability to

618
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: put my own personal stamp of approval on tools that

619
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: I thought would help people perform better. And that is

620
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: what this logo has allowed me to do. Tools tool

621
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: is right. We got it to it like he's he's

622
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: so good at pretending. He's not kind of a goober,

623
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 1: but he is. I mean, he's so bad at pretending

624
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: that he's not a goog. He's just like you know,

625
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: the fans want to know. And it's like your fans

626
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: aren't up at twelve thirty when you're snapchatting him from

627
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 1: the weight room, you know, I mean they're they're not

628
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: up that late. I don't know. I didn't listen to

629
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: an all time Athletes, but we want to see you,

630
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: you know real with this logo is not this got

631
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: you you guys, especially Dan, you were fired up. I

632
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: don't know the quote that the logo has allowed him

633
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: to reach out to people and helped him perform better.

634
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: That's like something someone got in his ear, some one

635
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: of his seventeen brand managers, and he's just regurgitating and

636
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't make him seem like an authentic person. I'm sorry.

637
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: Brand copy is never good, you know, And but that

638
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: is all time that is when you see it, you know,

639
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: I personally have the hand in the product's creation and

640
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: I give it my personal stamp of approval. It sounds

641
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: like he's making like a like a political stamp or

642
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: something like this, like this, I endorsed this logo, and

643
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: plenty of guys have logos like Tom Brady has a

644
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 1: silly logo will wear it on a hat all the

645
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: time TV twelve. But Tom Brady, at least there's people

646
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: that don't have him giving interviews where he sounds like

647
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: a public relations assistant. I mean, just you just gotta

648
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: pull back a little bit. I don't know. He's too

649
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: busy in the kitchen cooking up those recipes for that. Yeah.

650
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: Oh the cookbook, yeah, little himily in Salt. No, like

652
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,120

00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,280

659
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: in the news, a lot of news. Let's move on

660
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: now and uh talk about who are the Cinderella's and

661
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 1: who are the pumpkins? Uh? Connor or this is how

662
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: many pieces are you doing this week? Five one for

663
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: every day of the week. Ron. Uh. So you started

664
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: out on Monday with a piece on the Jacksonville Jaguars.

665
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 1: How do we want to do this? Do we want

666
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: to go team by team each the five teams? All right,

667
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: let's start with the Jags and you could see this? Uh?

668
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: Is this? There's their vanity? You are all involved here

669
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: there there will be there will be. Okay for now,

670
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: how about NFL dot com slash Cinderella. That's the vanity

671
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: you r L will get that done. And if you

672
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: want to see Connor's entire library, NFL dot com slash

673
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: or O r R or you kidding me? All right,

674
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: let's start with the Jags five and eleven last season,

675
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: and we all know what they've done. Uh. Even though

676
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey now is on the shelf, they think he'll

677
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: get healthy after that knee surgery and be a contributor

678
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: this year. But they had an offense which was, you know,

679
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 1: one of the most potent in the league at times

680
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,879
Speaker 1: last year. Uh. And now they have a defense that's

681
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: loaded with some talent um and they're getting Dante Fowler back.

682
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,320
Speaker 1: So a lot of people are buzzy Connor about the Jags.

683
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 1: And guess what, you believe in them too? Because your

684
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen projection is nine and seven, which

685
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 1: might not be enough to get to the playoffs, but

686
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: it's a step in the right direction. That's why I

687
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 1: have him as a Cinderella this year. I mean, I

688
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: think that the plan all along was for this team

689
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,440
Speaker 1: to put everything into making their moves this year. They

690
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: still think the division is up for grabs, and you know,

691
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey or not. I I don't put a lot

692
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: of stock into what one rookie cornerback how he can

693
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: impact the defense necessarily. But I number if I've picked

694
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: in the draft and a potential starter. But it sounds

695
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 1: like he has a good chance of being ready anyway

696
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: for the start of the season. We just don't We

697
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 1: don't know. He's gonna miss some offseason work. They lost

698
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: a of it round. There's something bad about they just

699
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: have bad luck. They had lost the seventh round pick

700
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 1: for the season on Monday to an achilles injury. It's

701
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: just like something bad in the water. But you're right,

702
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: they've they're just loaded up. You've you've been buying in

703
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: for the Jaguars for years though you and what you

704
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: went Cecily, we did London was our time to really

705
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: kind of fall in love with the Jaguars. Uh. We

706
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 1: really like that. The people in England one of their

707
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: favorite things about them is that we mispronounced that. They

708
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: believe that we mispronounced the name yeah, and so that

709
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,839
Speaker 1: that that's really what started Cessla and I on that path.

710
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: But seriously, I mean, they've spended, They spent well at

711
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,359
Speaker 1: the top end of free agent markets over the last

712
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,439
Speaker 1: two years. They have good young players, not crappy old

713
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: players on bad deals anymore. Does it worry you that

714
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,399
Speaker 1: everyone's in on them? Oh, it should be a red flag.

715
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: Are we gonna give a yea your day? Are you?

716
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 1: Are you saying yeah your nay on the Jaguars. I

717
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: hesitate only because the Jaguars of the Jaguars and the

718
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: idea of, you know, everyone thinking they're gonna be good.

719
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: It really does in a in a division that is

720
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: probably gonna be better, even I won't give that completely.

721
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: A lot of people think, all of a sudden, the

722
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 1: af C South is just this awesome division, what's gonna

723
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: have three playoff teams? But I do I'm with Connor

724
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: on this in the sense that I think they could

725
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: definitely flirt with ten wins if things go the right direction,

726
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: I think nine is probably the number i'd go with.

727
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:21,919
Speaker 1: So I don't know if that counts as a Cinderella story,

728
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 1: but certainly I think keeps gust Bradley's job. That nine

729
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: wins is a yeah, I'm feeling I'm excited. I think

730
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: there'll be a lot of fun to watch, you know,

731
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: Seven or eight wins feels feels a little all right,

732
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: give me another team. That's that's coming up this week

733
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: on NFL dot Com. Next we have the Titans. All right,

734
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: so let's talk about the Titans, another team now that

735
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: people are excited about. What do you think Cinderella or

736
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 1: a pumpkin In this case, I said Cinderella. But just

737
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: because I'm having them double their win total from the

738
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 1: year before, I have them at six wins, that's not

739
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: a Cinderella that your double kind of game? Is this?

740
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: The Cderella is a team that goes some rags to riches.

741
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: That's true, Minnesota Twins, that was Cinderella. Baby. The Cinderella

742
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: story isn't like she got her weekends off. She still

743
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: had to stay be the maid. This is like, I

744
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,359
Speaker 1: get the print, This is like a pumpkin. Hummus then

745
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: it's sort of a you know, in between her. You know,

746
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: but you know, I think this team is a lot

747
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: better than they were a year before. They're good enough

748
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 1: to double their win total. I think that's a great

749
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 1: Cinderella story. And it might like we said, keep Mike

750
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: Malarkey's job too, because I mean he's the cheapest coach

751
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: by millions of dollars in the NFL right now. We

752
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 1: should find some type of middle ground between Cinderella and Pumpkin,

753
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: because that's what a six win team like. Well, if

754
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: we're talking about buzz and a team taking a big leap,

755
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: I'm not buying the Titans. I think they're their defense.

756
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: There's not a lot to get excited about. Like there's

757
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: there's more players than you think, but there's not a

758
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: lot of really plus players. I think they're kind of

759
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: where Jacksonville was a year or two ago, where people

760
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 1: kind of getting people get excited two years away. They

761
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: certainly have Marcus Mariotta, who's exciting. They have some you know,

762
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: young offensive talent. Maybe Dorio Green Beckham will be good

763
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 1: this year, but I don't think there. If West was here,

764
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: he would be in on Cinderella. And that's understandable because

765
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: West believes that Marcus Mariota could potentially be a guy

766
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: that's like an m VP conversations and I think down

767
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: the road, Marcus Mario can be that guy if he

768
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: can stay healthy. Two words though, why this is a

769
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: pumpkin still Mike mclarkey. I mean, I'll say it again.

770
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: I said on this podcast five times that team was

771
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: not playing hard for Mike m malarkey last year. They

772
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: he's shown he has a track record of failure in

773
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 1: the NFL. And to think that all of a sudden,

774
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 1: this coach has stunk his entire pro career is now

775
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,359
Speaker 1: gonna all of a sudden turn into this guy that's

776
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,319
Speaker 1: building a giant in the a f C. I think

777
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 1: the true build rebuild for the Titans comes once they

778
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: get in some real coaches and proficient player people in

779
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: that building. I love the idea that this season is

780
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: going to be Mike Malarkey's like magnum Opus. He's gonna

781
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: have some incredible like you know, they're they're building this

782
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: like power spread offense, the exotic smash mouth that's gonna

783
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: run over the entire division. Uh, you know it's Larkey

784
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: hasn't stuck in his career. I think that's his problem though.

785
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: He's he's the very middle of the road. He was

786
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: what two and fourteen in Jacksonville, Well, yeah, that wasn't good.

787
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: Is one year in Jacksonville. I'm gonna pull up his

788
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: football reference. He certainly didn't light up the Falcons when

789
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 1: he was a coordinator there. And he's just kind of

790
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 1: a keep the trade movie and he's professional. He's just there.

791
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get into his work as a coordinator,

792
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 1: and I mean just as as a head coach in

793
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: the NFL. Um he doesn't have a lot of success

794
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: and he didn't to me show anything that meant he

795
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: should be keeping the job after his interim job. Nine

796
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: and seven is first year in Buffalo two thousand and fourteen.

797
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 1: Then they dropped to five and eleven. He got canned.

798
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: Now he left, Oh he left, that's right. He quit

799
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,760
Speaker 1: in two thousand and twelve. He resurfaces as a head coach,

800
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: goes two and fourteen, it gets canned, and then goes

801
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 1: two and seven and nine games last year, So you know,

802
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: eighteen and thirty nine and four years, maybe it turns around.

803
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: Maybe this is this peate Carol moment. You know, perhaps

804
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 1: you're right. I mean, Carol is the perfect example of

805
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: the kind of middle ing to loser coach that changes everything,

806
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: well except for all of his national championships. I'm just

807
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: saying there, I don't I don't talk about coordinator jobs.

808
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: I don't talk about college jobs. I talked about when

809
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 1: you're in the big chair in the NFL. Greg, I'm saying,

810
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: Carol gave you some reason to believe that Malarkey has that. Okay,

811
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: who else do we have on this list? The Rams?

812
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk Rams. I have a big time

813
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: pumpkin grid on the range where where I am still

814
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 1: riding because I was ground floor Jags, Like I was

815
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 1: into the Jags when they were playing small shows, you know,

816
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,879
Speaker 1: like a long time ago. But now everyone is ground

817
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: floor Rams. I am so out. I I don't think

818
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: this's gonna work at all. I have five wins projected

819
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 1: for next year, and why is that? I don't think

820
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,439
Speaker 1: that they have a good secondary And I also don't

821
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: think that what can you reasonably expect from a rookie quarterback? Now?

822
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: I mean, I know you're Andrew Lux of the world,

823
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: You're Matt Ryan's can get you eleven and five seasons

824
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 1: right out of the game rookie quarterback without a great

825
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: receiver or a tight end too. And at the top

826
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: of the depth, chet, I mean you make a good point.

827
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 1: I mean, if he if he has a because you know, Mark,

828
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: let's say, as a Mark Sanchez type rookie season where

829
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 1: it's injury filled, but he stays on the field and

830
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: plays just good enough to stay on the field, then

831
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 1: you need then you need the running game to be

832
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 1: what like super dynamic. And Girley's got to have one

833
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: of the best seasons of the He's gonna have a

834
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray year, and you don't think that's coming. I

835
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: think he might get close. But then still, I mean,

836
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 1: where's your where's your Dez Bryant, where's your offensive line,

837
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 1: where's your Jason Witten. I mean, there's just not enough

838
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 1: complimentary pieces around to make him work. And I think

839
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 1: they're gonna end up starting probably two rookie tight ends,

840
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: if not at least one. And uh, you know, and

841
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 1: Tavon Austin is it's been hard for him to other

842
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: quarterbacks to get him the ball for four years. You know,

843
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: doesn't well with Greg Rosenthal, who is a believer in

844
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: the res I wouldn't go that far. I was last year, certainly.

845
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 1: I think it's more likely that they stay right there

846
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,839
Speaker 1: on this seven eight win path I do. I mean,

847
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 1: they did lose a couple of pieces in the secondary.

848
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 1: They have some great pieces on defense with Donald and

849
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: Quinn and Ogletree and and all that, But to me,

850
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: it all adds up to another mediocre kape. It will

851
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,719
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how they treat Jeff Fisher if

852
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 1: that happens. But that's a long way away. But you're saying, Connor,

853
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: that I forget about seven and nine. This could be

854
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,280
Speaker 1: a true regression. They're gonna get worse this year and eleven.

855
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: You sound confident. Uh you know what? Does uh Vicky

856
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 1: Valancourt stay at the end of Waterboy, that's what it's

857
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 1: gonna be. I mean, that's a little teased to horrible

858
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: movies right there by Connor. All right, let's move on.

859
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: Who else we got? The Buccaneers? Oh, the bus I've

860
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 1: also got you know, So I guess now that we're

861
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 1: really kind of forcing me to kind of tow the

862
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: line here. I mean, I have them projected at eight wins,

863
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: but I think that's a pumpkin season for the Buccaneers.

864
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: I think that everybody thinks that Jamis Winston is going

865
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: to be able to get them into the playoffs this year.

866
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,400
Speaker 1: That's their best season in a while. It's a first

867
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: time head coach, you know, a new defensive coordinator. I

868
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: think they'd be have They would take eight wins with

869
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,320
Speaker 1: a young I mean it kind of goes along with

870
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 1: the hey we're young and we're building thing. I think

871
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: this this division is a weird divide. I don't know

872
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 1: what to think about the Bucks. I don't have that.

873
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 1: I don't have a hot take on the Bucks because

874
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: they should be exciting. I mean they should. They have

875
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,400
Speaker 1: Lavante David, they have Gerald McCoy, they have Mike Evans,

876
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,760
Speaker 1: they have Jamis Winds, and they have these like cornerstone

877
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 1: guys Doug Martin. But after after that, I don't know.

878
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: I gotta see it to believe. I don't believe it.

879
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you just name the guys. They have a chance,

880
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:46,959
Speaker 1: and I think Mike Evans gonna have a nice bounce

881
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 1: back season this year and he wasn't even that bad

882
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 1: last year. They could score a lot of points if

883
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston takes the next step as a pastor, and

884
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: he sat. I mean, I know they lost their last

885
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 1: five games or whatever last year, and that got Love,

886
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 1: you can, but I I thought that Winston showed a

887
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: lot and West who's you know, I put a lot

888
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 1: of stock into what he looks like. He looked at

889
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 1: every snap, uh, both Mariotta and Winston last season, and

890
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,800
Speaker 1: he came out of it kind of, you know, in

891
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: terms of a coin flip in terms of who he

892
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: thought had a better year, and uh, he was a

893
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,800
Speaker 1: big fan of Winston. So I think there's plenty of

894
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:23,800
Speaker 1: reason to think that they can improve a lot. No pumpkin,

895
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: bad secondary. They've been looking for defensive ends for years.

896
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,839
Speaker 1: They added Robert Air, Spence and Robert Air, so maybe

897
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 1: that'll work. But they haven't really had a pass rush.

898
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: No pass rush and no secondary. That's a bad cup

899
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 1: that's not but Love's defense was so bad that it's

900
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 1: kind of like the Saints that the Saints just think, look,

901
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 1: we've had the worst defense the leak two straight years.

902
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 1: If we can improve to the twenty one best defense,

903
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 1: we could be a playoff team. And that's that's kind

904
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 1: of like the Bucks. If they could just improve the

905
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 1: average on defense, they could be okay. But I don't

906
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: like about the Bucks though, is that like their fans

907
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 1: are now chiming in. Now it's cool to be a

908
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 1: fan of a building team, and it's like, look at

909
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 1: how many first years star are GM drafted and like

910
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: the process, and it's like, you know, you gotta hold

911
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: on to something on you know, just get over it.

912
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: By the last Bucks win happened I believe in late November.

913
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: Uh and it was a dramatic victory if I recalled

914
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,040
Speaker 1: um and I remember there was the locker room video

915
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: of Jamis Winston like yelling and everyone excited, Lovey Smith

916
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 1: with a big smile in his face. You think Lovey

917
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 1: had any idea six months later to be coaching the

918
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 1: University of Illinois. Yeah, all that's crazy. And you mentioned

919
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: that they're all the fans are excited, and and that

920
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: got me thinking about, like why they would be so excited.

921
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: I don't think people realize how bad the Bucks have been.

922
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: They've been last place for five straight years. But then

923
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 1: if you really think back to to the end of

924
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 1: the Grooten era, they have done a worse job building

925
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,320
Speaker 1: and having continuity than any team in the league, Grooten

926
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 1: to Morris to Siano to Lovey and there's about three

927
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 1: or four three GM stuck in there. So they've done

928
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,080
Speaker 1: the opposite of building. So maybe they feel like this

929
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 1: group with with I think Jason Light gives off an

930
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 1: air of competence and has done an okay job that

931
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 1: maybe at least they have something that's gonna stick for

932
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: a little while. And the final team, Connor on your

933
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 1: breakdown this week, Cidars and Pumpkins, who you got the Raiders.

934
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a guess at this because I think

935
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,360
Speaker 1: the Raiders are what Connor is gonna say, because I

936
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 1: think the Raiders are almost, you know, universally held as

937
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 1: a team that's gonna all of a sudden be in

938
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 1: the playoff mix nine or ten wins and you agree,

939
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: I do, but almost begrudgingly because I said, you know,

940
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 1: it's it's doing this. It's almost frustrating because I feel

941
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: like they're not going to live up to these expectations.

942
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 1: Like you had all these teams improving. You just think

943
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 1: everyone's gonna be happy, and except for the Rams. Except

944
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 1: for the Rams, right, I mean, I have some teams improving,

945
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 1: some teams not meeting expectations and then you know the Raiders.

946
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: I have at nine wins, but I feel like a

947
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: lot of people are pegging them. It's like a ten

948
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: eleven win team. I just I don't know. There's something

949
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: that's not getting me acent there. But I think they

950
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 1: should make the playoffs. That's the vision is wide open.

951
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,319
Speaker 1: So not quite Cinderella, but you know, really a big

952
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: step up this season. I say Cinderella if they make

953
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 1: the playoffs or they win nine games and get within

954
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:12,359
Speaker 1: the game, I think that's the Cinderella. I think they're

955
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: starting lineups are awesome and uh with a little help

956
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: with a series. Out of these five teams, I think

957
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: they're easily the best team. And I think I think

958
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,479
Speaker 1: i'd vote a yea, I'm gonna talk I had a vote,

959
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 1: I'd put it over ted. Uh. So I am going

960
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,320
Speaker 1: to talk to our social media team Greg when we

961
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,879
Speaker 1: sell this podcast because this pull quote, I think they're

962
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:36,919
Speaker 1: starting lineups are awesome. That's a pretty that's pretty bold

963
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:39,880
Speaker 1: state that is that a cool word to use anymore?

964
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 1: That's not really that's what I'm saying. I don't know

965
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 1: if I want to say something else replace the word,

966
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 1: will use that. It really cracked us up. Once. There

967
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 1: was a lunch lady who told us it. Told us

968
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 1: one day that the crowd winds that day, the crowd

969
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 1: winds are awesome, but make fun of that the crutons.

970
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 1: I don't know, but yeah, that was what I knew.

971
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: Awesome was not really that cool word. It's a memorable

972
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:05,760
Speaker 1: moment for you, though. If you want to update awesome

973
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,879
Speaker 1: for this millennium or this decade, you could be like, dope. Yeah,

974
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 1: you can say dope, I think they're starting line ups

975
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 1: are dope. Or you can say I think they're starting

976
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 1: lineups are killing it and they're big on killing it

977
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 1: right now, everybody's got to calm down a little bit

978
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,320
Speaker 1: with killing it because it's not that great. And in

979
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: terms of an expression is being used now by like,

980
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: you know, like baby boomers. A savage is another one. Hey,

981
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:33,240
Speaker 1: by the way, just mildly disagreed with anything. It's not savage.

982
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 1: Oh wow, that's savage. That's all I see is savage. Savage, bro,

983
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,840
Speaker 1: you're killing it. Um. I hope these words don't make

984
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 1: their way out east. I think you guys gotta get

985
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: everything first. You don't got killing it out there, not yet.

986
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,719
Speaker 1: But you know, Brandon never looked at us like we're

987
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: any older than right now. I think he's embarrassed. Uh,

988
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: that's already. You gotta have the Vincila Barty drop buddy. Well,

989
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:57,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm never embarrassed by you guys. I just

990
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: want to say that, all right before we go. Let's

991
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 1: now that's it for the Cinderellas and Pumpkins. I didn't

992
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: hear actually one Cinderella there. I don't even know, but

993
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 1: I think we went to take this entire series in

994
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 1: a different direction. Cinderella is supposed to make a super

995
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: Bowl run. That's what's about, or like progress into the playoffs.

996
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 1: You know when you have a good idea and then

997
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:20,720
Speaker 1: you talk it out and realize it's a horrible idea.

998
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: I think that's played out and it's live on the podcast.

999
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,360
Speaker 1: Nobody making a playoff in a playoff game, and I

1000
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:32,800
Speaker 1: want nine sect Com just gotta change the titles, you know,

1001
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:36,359
Speaker 1: spinning a little different trendy teams or something. All right,

1002
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 1: let's talk about some horrible movies, alright, So you know

1003
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 1: the deal. If you're a listener of the show, Connor

Speaker 1: Ore is a couple of It's back now was looking

1013
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 1: little bit more cultured when it comes to the silver screen.

1014
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 1: Uh Strangely, we haven't really heard anything about horrible movies.

1015

Speaker 1: You know. We'll check in with him on our on

1016

1017
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: now connor that we have you here, we we need

1018
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 1: an update. It's like when corporate calls you in to

1019
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:47,799
Speaker 1: explain something that's going awry in the business. We've called

1020
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: you and to find out what's up with horrible movies

1021
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,840
Speaker 1: to ask me what I've actually been doing? What is

1022
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,439
Speaker 1: it that you do here? Uh So I got through

1023
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: five and uh so this is kind of a tea parter.

1024
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 1: Uh The majority of them are so stupid that, uh

1025
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you kind of my five hot picks

1026
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: for the summer of just any movies kind of some

1027
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 1: connor our favorites, but uh, you know what we can

1028
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 1: kind of I guess pars out the top five a

1029
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,840
Speaker 1: little bit and just the top five of the A five.

1030
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 1: You did watch the top five. I saw the top five. Yeah,

1031
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:20,960
Speaker 1: so you started the idea was you're gonna do. I

1032
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,880
Speaker 1: saw most of the top So you went from one

1033
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: hundred to most of the top five movies, so you

1034
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 1: really scaled them the ambition here. Okay, So like on

1035
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 1: the A FI List number five, Singing in the Rain,

1036
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 1: which is classified as a comedy, I watched like twenty

1037
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,240
Speaker 1: five minutes of it. I didn't laugh, and I realized

1038
00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, since we were talking about Pitchfork earlier,

1039
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 1: it's like like the Pitchfork equivalent of putting like an

1040
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,920
Speaker 1: animal Collective song in the top five songs and being like,

1041
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: but it was so important for the future, and it's

1042
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,320
Speaker 1: like this movie was just dumb. It wasn't funny. It

1043
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,879
Speaker 1: was just a bunch of old people singing and getting wet.

1044
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 1: You know. So I agree to disagree on that one,

1045
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,359
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna this year's segment, so Singing in the Rain. Uh,

1046
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 1: it was horrible, horrible, horrible. It was horrible, horrible, Okay,

1047
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 1: Gene Kelly, Debi O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds rolling over. In their

1048
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:14,399
Speaker 1: collective grades, they all share one clear all right, next

1049
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:16,839
Speaker 1: next up on your list. So Singing the Rain no good? Okay,

1050
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 1: Number four was the only one that was good. Bobby

1051
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 1: d Raging Bull. Nothing wrong with that man. That's that's

1052
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,719
Speaker 1: a great Jersey guy coming out. The only problem though, Uh,

1053
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: the fighting scenes were not great. You know, if you

1054
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:29,879
Speaker 1: watch a boxing movie, you're kind of out there looking

1055
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: for that ridiculous rocky thing where if it happened to

1056
00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: someone in real life, they die, you know in the ring.

1057
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 1: If you're saying that many punches, that's kind of the

1058
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: the aesthetic that you're going for. But it was good

1059
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:42,479
Speaker 1: at the time. I think they the fight scenes people

1060
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 1: thought were revolution you know, they were it was notable.

1061
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,279
Speaker 1: I think they were viewed to be incredibly kind of

1062
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 1: visceral and important at the time. But what you're saying

1063
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,839
Speaker 1: is it wasn't as good as The Avengers or something

1064
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, Creed, Well, Creed actually is they kind

1065
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: of reinvented the ent ring fights to the point where

1066
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:03,960
Speaker 1: Michael B. Jordan's actually took a knockout punch and they

1067
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,840
Speaker 1: kept it in the movie. But yeah, you're saying, not

1068
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:08,320
Speaker 1: that I don't like him, but that's what you should

1069
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 1: be doing. Yeah, you should be You're saying Bobby d

1070
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,640

1071
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:15,200
Speaker 1: see him take a few more hits to the knock.

1072
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,160

Speaker 1: Rain that you did watch good Lord. Yeah, if you

1075
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:27,799
Speaker 1: gave wait, if you gave if you gave Raging Bowl

1076
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 1: a letter grade, what would it be, I would say,

1077
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 1: like a like a B minus. Okay, Next up? Uh?

1078
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 1: Next up is uh is The Godfather? Okay, I mean

1079
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 1: that's a classic. It's fine, but you're gonna have the

1080
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: Godfather die in a wheezing in a tomato patch like

1081
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: he's you know, like sitting there like he can't come on.

1082
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 1: It's a bad job by you, Godfather is It cannot

1083
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 1: be argued that that's one of the great films of

1084
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 1: all time. Yeah, I I liked it. You know, Don

1085
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:00,839
Speaker 1: the Don passed away. He was an old man who

1086
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: would survive an assassination attempt, and he had to the

1087
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,799
Speaker 1: only way to move the movie forward is to let

1088
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: his son take over. If you you know, and I understand,

1089
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: like you know, people like on It's symbolizes the passion

1090
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 1: passing of time in a in a place of growth,

1091
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: in a growing tomato patch. But he's dying or whatever,

1092
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, you know, have him go down

1093
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 1: like scarface, you know, a little blow, a little machine gun.

1094
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: You know, I haven't really kind of fired up a

1095
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,720
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, this is this is very millennial

1096
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 1: right now. Okay, so, uh, not a good grade for

1097
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:36,920
Speaker 1: uh The Godfather? Okay, next, what was your grade for

1098
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: The Godfather? C plus? You know, all right, we got

1099
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: what else? Casablanca? Uh just cassa boring? You know, Uh,

1100
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 1: they just get on the plane or dunk get on

1101
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:54,799
Speaker 1: the plane. You know, I didn't really understand that one.

1102
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 1: Be honest, you didn't watch one meant of Casablanca. I

1103
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:03,439
Speaker 1: watched probably like five minutes. Casting like, yeah, that sounds

1104
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 1: like a lie. Why should we trust your opinion on movies? Again?

1105
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,239
Speaker 1: How did this happen? Yeah? You haven't heard my hot

1106
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,920
Speaker 1: picks though, Okay, well, what about by the way, I'm

1107
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 1: thirty seconds away from getting spice rack on the phone. Oh,

1108
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:21,479
Speaker 1: what's the last movie? Citizen Kane. That's obviously Citizen Kane

1109
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: widely regarded as one of the great achievements in the

1110
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 1: history of the cinema. Uh, there's nothing bad you can

1111
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:30,439
Speaker 1: say about that. I just think we need to redo

1112
00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 1: the list because we're basing things off of how important

1113
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,839
Speaker 1: they were at a time for now and how influential

1114
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 1: they are. But you know, it's just that's not even

1115
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 1: a criticism of Citizen Kane. It's just you didn't see

1116
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 1: that movie. Yes, I did. I did see Citizen Kane. Yeah.

1117
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:50,520
Speaker 1: It was a sled, you know, I mean what you know,

1118
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: you know the whole movie it's a sled. It's like, okay,

1119
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm out with you on Taking of

1120
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:57,799
Speaker 1: the Rain. I think that holds up great. I am

1121
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 1: with you at this point. If you watch Citis, it's

1122
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: down the common man, right whatever, Uh, it's entertaining. Uh.

1123
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,080
Speaker 1: Citizen Kane it is different. You know, if you you

1124
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 1: might have watched it in film class or something like that.

1125
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 1: But it's you know, it doesn't mean you're gonna have

1126
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 1: a jolly good time watching it. Let's Connor didn't see

1127
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 1: the movie active watching. I made it through four minutes

1128
00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 1: of my film appreciation class in college. We watched the

1129
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: first scene of American Beauty and then I just got up.

1130
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:25,920
Speaker 1: I said I can't take this and I left the class. Right,

1131
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 1: Can I just put this out there that your whole

1132
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,279
Speaker 1: and we do want to hear your five picks for

1133
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 1: the summer, But the whole idea of horrible movies was

1134
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:39,240
Speaker 1: for you to gain culture and to watch different types

1135
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 1: of cinema and appreciate films in a way maybe a

1136
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,920
Speaker 1: true buff does. It doesn't sound like you ever really

1137
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: gave the exercise a chance. Well, no, I think what

1138
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:51,839
Speaker 1: I'm doing is I'm providing a service and for people

1139
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: who are trying to do the same kinds of things

1140
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,759
Speaker 1: that I am. I'm here to show you that, you know,

1141
00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,960
Speaker 1: I've got five great easy rockers for you to to

1142
00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:01,560
Speaker 1: bang the summer, and you know, and you don't have

1143
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,320
Speaker 1: to worry about culture what other people a right here?

1144
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,320
Speaker 1: All right? So number five the best cast sports movie

1145
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: of of our generation, uh Angels in the Outfield, which

1146
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 1: is a great like early nineties. So you you have

1147
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 1: you have you have major issues with Marlon Brando dying

1148
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: in the Godfather, but Tony Danza dies and angels in

1149
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 1: the Outfield and you're cool with it. Spoiler alert. Tony

1150
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,880
Speaker 1: Danza plays uh fireball pitcher mel Clark, who gets them

1151
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,680
Speaker 1: all the way to the World Series. Uh. And then yeah,

1152
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,400
Speaker 1: he's a smoker. And so all of our spoiler alerts

1153
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 1: are after we spoiled it. Tony Danza's character smoked throughout

1154
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,560
Speaker 1: the entire film. I think that's you know they were.

1155
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:43,520
Speaker 1: It was foreshadowing and even for a movie, for a

1156
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,920
Speaker 1: PG movie for young kid, I mean, that's that's some

1157
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 1: big stuff. All right, let's that's the fourth movie. Something's

1158
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:55,440
Speaker 1: gotta Give. With Diane Keaton and Jack I would say, Uh,

1159
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 1: you know you want a classic love story, kind of

1160
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,160
Speaker 1: a modern love story and involves on an instant messaging

1161
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 1: email old people. Uh, if you're a key and fan

1162
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 1: in general, you find her, you find her alluring. I

1163
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,000
Speaker 1: would say, like, if I was seventy and I was

1164
00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 1: going to a movie to look for like a best

1165
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,760
Speaker 1: looking seventy, that would be her. I would that that

1166
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 1: would be she would be my Angelina Jolie for that

1167
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 1: h bracket. Okay, interesting, all right? Number three Draft Day

1168
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:31,040
Speaker 1: Classic Kevin Costner. Uh just I mean I've watched an

1169
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 1: English and Spanish. Uh, it's we're talking about this draft

1170
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:38,560
Speaker 1: you're out of your mind? Ye. That already great movie,

1171
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 1: so quotable. Uh, you know we quote Marks review of

1172
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 1: it all the time. Is that even a top five

1173
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:50,080
Speaker 1: Kevin cost Er sports movie? Oh? I think I think

1174
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,920
Speaker 1: so it holds up To talk about holding up, well,

1175
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:56,880
Speaker 1: it's terrible movie. It's so bad. I saw it for free.

1176
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 1: They let us see it for free, and I barely

1177
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,360
Speaker 1: made it through it. Kind of fight through this negativity.

1178
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it. Would you say one last thing

1179
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 1: on Draft Day? Would you say that it's full of

1180
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:10,520
Speaker 1: heart from start to finish. That's what Mark said a

1181
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 1: number two. I think I'm gonna redeem myself a little

1182
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,160
Speaker 1: bit of this one because it was also critically acclaimed.

1183
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: One IMDb commenter said it was the greatest character driven

1184
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 1: film of all time. So number two is heat alright?

1185
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 1: The DeNiro Puccino. Uh, Michael Man. I believe Michael Mann

00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 1: written and directed? I can't. I mean, I don't even

00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 1: are in lieu of you know, if you're gonna try

1190
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 1: to do what I did and culture yourself this summer,

1191
00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:45,640

1197
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 1: my favorite actress is The Canyons with Lindsay Lohan. That

1198
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 1: is uh kind of mixes in the modern day elements

1199
01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 1: of of of love and jealousy and texting, and oh

1200
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 1: it's great. You know, it seems to be a trend

1201
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: you look for movies with texting, modern modern elements of text.

1202
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:20,960
Speaker 1: I like it. Well, you're a big Brad Easton Ellis fan, right,

1203
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:23,400
Speaker 1: you like American Psycho. This is written by him. He

1204
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 1: thought this movie was very misunderstood. I haven't needed to

1205
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,440
Speaker 1: see it just to just to see. Uh, it was

1206
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:31,760
Speaker 1: so good. They didn't put it in theaters, they put

1207
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: it right onto your TV. So I saw a few
