1
00:00:07,266 --> 00:00:09,706
Speaker 1: The Season with Peter Scheger is a production of the

2
00:00:09,786 --> 00:00:24,786
Speaker 1: NFL in partnership with iHeartRadio. What's Up, Everybody, Welcome to

3
00:00:24,826 --> 00:00:28,186
Speaker 1: the Season with Peter Scheger. It's the podcast where we

4
00:00:28,266 --> 00:00:30,866
Speaker 1: cover the league every single day, three hundred and sixty

5
00:00:30,866 --> 00:00:32,506
Speaker 1: five days a year, and we give you the most

6
00:00:32,546 --> 00:00:36,626
Speaker 1: immediate and in depth analysis and reactions. We typically like

7
00:00:36,666 --> 00:00:42,146
Speaker 1: to interview coaches, general managers, team owners, certain players, ex players,

8
00:00:42,226 --> 00:00:48,586
Speaker 1: media personalities. Sometimes we just want the voice of the fans.

9
00:00:49,346 --> 00:00:53,866
Speaker 1: Last night was Monday Night Football. It was September eleventh.

10
00:00:53,986 --> 00:00:57,586
Speaker 1: The Jets put on a show like no other show

11
00:00:57,666 --> 00:01:01,226
Speaker 1: we have seen for a home opener for MetLife Stadium.

12
00:01:01,506 --> 00:01:04,146
Speaker 1: There were celebrities on the field before the game, celebrities

13
00:01:04,226 --> 00:01:09,746
Speaker 1: such as Justin Timberlake, celebrities such as Jake Paul, celebrities

14
00:01:10,386 --> 00:01:16,426
Speaker 1: up and down, inside and out, football luminaries, hockey luminaries,

15
00:01:16,546 --> 00:01:21,146
Speaker 1: NBA luminaries, celebrities in the entertainment field. Edie Falco was there.

16
00:01:22,066 --> 00:01:24,826
Speaker 1: We get to the start of the game and they

17
00:01:24,866 --> 00:01:27,826
Speaker 1: turn the lights off and all of a sudden, the

18
00:01:27,906 --> 00:01:32,306
Speaker 1: U two is blasting and there in the pitch dark

19
00:01:32,906 --> 00:01:36,466
Speaker 1: coming out like a light that's forty years in the

20
00:01:36,506 --> 00:01:40,706
Speaker 1: making is number eight, Aaron Rodgers starting from the tunnel

21
00:01:40,706 --> 00:01:45,666
Speaker 1: with an American flag, and it is hard not to

22
00:01:45,786 --> 00:01:50,706
Speaker 1: think this is one of the coolest things ever. And

23
00:01:50,746 --> 00:01:54,306
Speaker 1: then the game starts. Bills get a first down, then

24
00:01:54,346 --> 00:01:58,226
Speaker 1: go three and out. The Jets get the ball and

25
00:01:58,266 --> 00:02:03,266
Speaker 1: on the fourth snap of Aaron rodgers Jets career, this

26
00:02:03,346 --> 00:02:04,306
Speaker 1: is what happens.

27
00:02:04,706 --> 00:02:07,706
Speaker 2: Takes the snap drops back the middle under pressure and

28
00:02:07,866 --> 00:02:10,586
Speaker 2: he King's sack back to the thirty two yard gone

29
00:02:10,586 --> 00:02:11,466
Speaker 2: by Leonard Floyd.

30
00:02:12,706 --> 00:02:14,626
Speaker 1: So the Bills get a big negative.

31
00:02:15,746 --> 00:02:19,506
Speaker 2: And Aaron Rodgers gets up with a limp. Aaron Rodgers

32
00:02:19,746 --> 00:02:21,506
Speaker 2: right now, does it looked one hundred percent?

33
00:02:21,626 --> 00:02:21,826
Speaker 3: Right?

34
00:02:22,706 --> 00:02:25,106
Speaker 2: Well, that's a good light lit because you got Leonard

35
00:02:25,106 --> 00:02:27,826
Speaker 2: Floyd the right He's gone down. Then Aaron Rodgers is

36
00:02:27,866 --> 00:02:32,426
Speaker 2: sitting down in the field, he's hurt. Eleven fifteen to

37
00:02:32,426 --> 00:02:36,946
Speaker 2: go in the opening quarter and Aaron Rodgers is injured

38
00:02:37,386 --> 00:02:40,506
Speaker 2: on the sack by Leonard Floyd, and the Jets training

39
00:02:40,546 --> 00:02:44,986
Speaker 2: staff surrounds him and sack. Wilson pops up and starts

40
00:02:44,986 --> 00:02:46,826
Speaker 2: to get ready and take some warm up throws.

41
00:02:48,626 --> 00:02:51,266
Speaker 1: Look like you might have got that left ankle twisted

42
00:02:51,786 --> 00:02:54,186
Speaker 1: as he went down and.

43
00:02:54,266 --> 00:02:58,746
Speaker 2: As we're taking another look at the replay, and it

44
00:02:58,826 --> 00:03:02,026
Speaker 2: looks as if when Floyd dragged him down he toe

45
00:03:02,146 --> 00:03:05,986
Speaker 2: picked a bit and Aaron Rodgers right now gingerly walking

46
00:03:06,066 --> 00:03:07,066
Speaker 2: off the field.

47
00:03:08,306 --> 00:03:11,786
Speaker 1: With a trainer on either side. Rogers wouldn't take another

48
00:03:11,826 --> 00:03:15,226
Speaker 1: snap after that. As we record this Tuesday morning, first thing,

49
00:03:15,906 --> 00:03:17,866
Speaker 1: it has been confirmed. It's an Achilles' injury. That's the

50
00:03:17,906 --> 00:03:21,466
Speaker 1: season end. There. There's no guarantee Rodgers will be back

51
00:03:21,466 --> 00:03:24,106
Speaker 1: on the field next year for the Jets. It might

52
00:03:24,186 --> 00:03:28,066
Speaker 1: all be over like that in a flash. Four snaps

53
00:03:28,306 --> 00:03:31,586
Speaker 1: as a New York Jet, never completed a pass as

54
00:03:31,626 --> 00:03:35,026
Speaker 1: a New York Jet, and after an off season like

55
00:03:35,106 --> 00:03:41,426
Speaker 1: no other in New York, and for Aaron Rodgers, it

56
00:03:41,466 --> 00:03:45,746
Speaker 1: could be done. I bring on my producer, Aaron wang

57
00:03:45,826 --> 00:03:48,506
Speaker 1: Kaufman erin. I didn't expect this to be our Week

58
00:03:48,546 --> 00:03:50,866
Speaker 1: two podcast. I didn't expect us to devote it to

59
00:03:50,906 --> 00:03:54,946
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, but we are doing an instant reaction podcast.

60
00:03:55,266 --> 00:03:57,466
Speaker 1: Where were you when you saw the injury and what

61
00:03:57,626 --> 00:03:58,986
Speaker 1: was your initial reactions?

62
00:03:59,426 --> 00:04:03,346
Speaker 4: So I'm watching in my office and texting with my

63
00:04:03,466 --> 00:04:06,746
Speaker 4: dad and with some friends as well, and and uh,

64
00:04:07,466 --> 00:04:08,946
Speaker 4: you know, my dad and I are dissecting what the

65
00:04:08,946 --> 00:04:12,066
Speaker 4: Bills are doing on offense, and then you know Jets

66
00:04:12,066 --> 00:04:15,346
Speaker 4: have the ball and I was like, oh, wow, Rogers

67
00:04:15,346 --> 00:04:17,186
Speaker 4: just went down. My dad's always like a few seconds

68
00:04:17,226 --> 00:04:19,266
Speaker 4: ahead of me because he's watching on TV stream.

69
00:04:19,666 --> 00:04:22,146
Speaker 1: He's also older, and that's just how it goes exactly.

70
00:04:22,986 --> 00:04:23,986
Speaker 1: They get faster internet.

71
00:04:25,866 --> 00:04:28,746
Speaker 4: And I was like, wow, that's not good, and like

72
00:04:29,986 --> 00:04:32,826
Speaker 4: there were a lot of injuries on Sunday. You never

73
00:04:32,866 --> 00:04:35,786
Speaker 4: want injuries at all, and I also don't want to

74
00:04:35,786 --> 00:04:38,546
Speaker 4: see injuries to the team that we're playing against, like

75
00:04:38,586 --> 00:04:41,666
Speaker 4: as Bills fans, like, we don't want Rogers to get hurt.

76
00:04:41,786 --> 00:04:45,866
Speaker 4: You you want to win a real game. And it

77
00:04:45,906 --> 00:04:48,986
Speaker 4: was it. It took the wind out of me, not

78
00:04:49,066 --> 00:04:51,906
Speaker 4: even being a Jets fan, like rooting for the other team.

79
00:04:52,306 --> 00:04:55,626
Speaker 4: It was I don't know it. There were so many

80
00:04:55,666 --> 00:04:57,866
Speaker 4: injuries already to think that we were going to get

81
00:04:57,906 --> 00:05:01,786
Speaker 4: another one, and the biggest one was terrifying.

82
00:05:03,026 --> 00:05:08,186
Speaker 1: It was crushing. And I speak on behalf of NFL

83
00:05:08,986 --> 00:05:12,986
Speaker 1: speak on behalf of a fan of New York teams,

84
00:05:13,506 --> 00:05:15,986
Speaker 1: and I think I think now as a fan of Rogers,

85
00:05:16,026 --> 00:05:19,026
Speaker 1: as a guy like he totally won everybody over this

86
00:05:19,066 --> 00:05:23,066
Speaker 1: offseason and it was authentic, but I can mourn about it,

87
00:05:23,106 --> 00:05:26,186
Speaker 1: you and I can dish about it. For this podcast,

88
00:05:26,506 --> 00:05:29,346
Speaker 1: I wanted to go to the true fans, and I've

89
00:05:29,386 --> 00:05:32,146
Speaker 1: got two of them. One of them is a world

90
00:05:32,146 --> 00:05:34,906
Speaker 1: famous actor and comedian and a guy that you have

91
00:05:35,026 --> 00:05:39,026
Speaker 1: seen on movies like The Bird Cage, on TV shows

92
00:05:39,066 --> 00:05:42,586
Speaker 1: like The Simpsons, where he plays about twenty voices. And

93
00:05:42,626 --> 00:05:45,066
Speaker 1: he's also been on the season with Peter Schrager representing

94
00:05:45,106 --> 00:05:48,746
Speaker 1: an optimistic Jets fan this past summer. A very different

95
00:05:48,786 --> 00:05:50,426
Speaker 1: version of him, I'm sure we're getting in a few

96
00:05:50,466 --> 00:05:54,826
Speaker 1: minutes here. It's the actor and comedian Hank Azaria. And

97
00:05:54,866 --> 00:05:57,306
Speaker 1: in addition to Hank, I've got a friend named David

98
00:05:57,466 --> 00:05:59,906
Speaker 1: who has been a Jets season ticket holder since nineteen

99
00:06:00,106 --> 00:06:02,906
Speaker 1: sixty six. We've met in recent years at a Super

100
00:06:02,946 --> 00:06:05,946
Speaker 1: Bowl event. David rolls in some pretty cool circles. He

101
00:06:05,946 --> 00:06:07,946
Speaker 1: knows a lot of NFL owners. He's also been to

102
00:06:08,186 --> 00:06:11,866
Speaker 1: just about every Jets home game since they were in

103
00:06:11,946 --> 00:06:14,946
Speaker 1: Shay Stadium till when they moved to Giant Stadium to

104
00:06:15,026 --> 00:06:17,706
Speaker 1: what it is now MetLife Stadium. When you're a season

105
00:06:17,706 --> 00:06:20,466
Speaker 1: ticket holder since nineteen sixty six, you've seen it all.

106
00:06:20,626 --> 00:06:23,146
Speaker 1: I want to speak with David about what he saw

107
00:06:23,226 --> 00:06:28,026
Speaker 1: last night in the building. But first usually laugh at

108
00:06:28,066 --> 00:06:30,906
Speaker 1: him when he's doing things. There's no laughing here, mister

109
00:06:30,946 --> 00:06:34,706
Speaker 1: Hanka's Area. All right, we're about twelve hours removed from

110
00:06:34,986 --> 00:06:41,426
Speaker 1: the injury in the moment that shook New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Westchester,

111
00:06:41,706 --> 00:06:43,026
Speaker 1: South Florida.

112
00:06:42,626 --> 00:06:43,106
Speaker 5: You name it.

113
00:06:43,146 --> 00:06:49,306
Speaker 1: There's Jets fans everywhere in one of my favorites, this

114
00:06:49,346 --> 00:06:50,866
Speaker 1: guy here, we had him on in the summer. We

115
00:06:50,946 --> 00:06:55,306
Speaker 1: talked about his Jets fandom echoes deep and we want

116
00:06:55,306 --> 00:06:58,666
Speaker 1: the raw reaction. Hanka's Area. Welcome back to the season

117
00:06:58,706 --> 00:06:59,426
Speaker 1: with Peter Schregg.

118
00:07:01,066 --> 00:07:04,026
Speaker 6: Thanks, I guess yeah, it's great to be here, Peter,

119
00:07:04,346 --> 00:07:11,386
Speaker 6: really great, great reason. How are you feeling, honest genuinely

120
00:07:11,506 --> 00:07:14,346
Speaker 6: still kind of in shock, like a shock, actual shock,

121
00:07:14,546 --> 00:07:17,826
Speaker 6: like a life event shock. I was just telling your

122
00:07:17,866 --> 00:07:22,266
Speaker 6: producer Aaron that there's certain Jets Mets nicks. Okay, there's

123
00:07:22,306 --> 00:07:25,226
Speaker 6: certain moments in that journey. Mostly it's comical and it's

124
00:07:25,226 --> 00:07:27,226
Speaker 6: sad sack, and you love the team and you know,

125
00:07:28,426 --> 00:07:32,706
Speaker 6: you know, the aura that hangs over them is not great.

126
00:07:32,826 --> 00:07:35,226
Speaker 6: You live with it and there are times when though

127
00:07:35,266 --> 00:07:39,666
Speaker 6: it's not really funny at all. The Mets collapse in

128
00:07:39,946 --> 00:07:44,466
Speaker 6: seven was not funny, not fun actually depressed me for

129
00:07:44,506 --> 00:07:45,106
Speaker 6: a couple of weeks.

130
00:07:45,226 --> 00:07:47,106
Speaker 1: I was there that was against the Marlins in the

131
00:07:47,106 --> 00:07:49,306
Speaker 1: final game of the season, and I remember I was

132
00:07:49,346 --> 00:07:50,666
Speaker 1: their unbelievable collapse.

133
00:07:51,026 --> 00:07:55,666
Speaker 6: Yeah, that whole three week collapse was brutal, and last

134
00:07:55,746 --> 00:08:00,386
Speaker 6: year's Met semi collapse was somewhat reminiscent. This is all

135
00:08:00,426 --> 00:08:04,066
Speaker 6: up there with you know, there's certain mo like you know,

136
00:08:04,146 --> 00:08:06,106
Speaker 6: Charles Smith not being able to make that lay up

137
00:08:06,146 --> 00:08:09,306
Speaker 6: again to Jordan Bowles, right, they just stay in your

138
00:08:09,426 --> 00:08:12,866
Speaker 6: mind and you know this might be the granddaddy of

139
00:08:12,906 --> 00:08:13,266
Speaker 6: them all.

140
00:08:13,386 --> 00:08:14,266
Speaker 1: This might be crazy.

141
00:08:14,626 --> 00:08:16,026
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's go through.

142
00:08:16,106 --> 00:08:18,706
Speaker 1: I mean, because we were texting at four a m.

143
00:08:18,786 --> 00:08:20,586
Speaker 1: This morning, you and I were both awake, and you

144
00:08:20,586 --> 00:08:22,626
Speaker 1: were the first person I thought of when this thing's

145
00:08:22,666 --> 00:08:25,466
Speaker 1: going down, because we talked about it over the summer.

146
00:08:25,466 --> 00:08:29,066
Speaker 1: But like the build up of the summer is one thing.

147
00:08:29,786 --> 00:08:32,466
Speaker 1: The building last night, it's almost if you look at

148
00:08:32,506 --> 00:08:35,226
Speaker 1: it's like a ghastly joke of Rogers coming out in

149
00:08:35,266 --> 00:08:37,346
Speaker 1: the dark with the lights on nine to eleven with

150
00:08:37,386 --> 00:08:40,106
Speaker 1: the American flag, and he played it. He never completed

151
00:08:40,106 --> 00:08:40,626
Speaker 1: a pass.

152
00:08:41,786 --> 00:08:44,626
Speaker 6: No you couldn't. I mean, you know this old story

153
00:08:44,626 --> 00:08:48,586
Speaker 6: about Red Fox, Peter Red Fox Herett was Sanford and Son,

154
00:08:49,506 --> 00:08:55,466
Speaker 6: and you know that theme music was okay, that would

155
00:08:55,666 --> 00:08:58,066
Speaker 6: when he played Vegas as a stand up, that would

156
00:08:58,106 --> 00:09:00,826
Speaker 6: play him out. That was his intro music. It was

157
00:09:00,866 --> 00:09:03,306
Speaker 6: famous in show business. We parodied it on The Simpsons

158
00:09:03,306 --> 00:09:05,906
Speaker 6: one time. Apparently one night there was no audience for

159
00:09:05,946 --> 00:09:09,466
Speaker 6: whatever is and there's like three people out there and

160
00:09:08,706 --> 00:09:14,026
Speaker 6: the gentlemen Red Fox and he comes out. He looks

161
00:09:14,026 --> 00:09:16,426
Speaker 6: out at the audience, he goes three people, I'm not

162
00:09:16,426 --> 00:09:19,706
Speaker 6: playing a show for no three damn people, and walked

163
00:09:19,746 --> 00:09:25,986
Speaker 6: off and they played his music when they carted Aaron off.

164
00:09:26,226 --> 00:09:28,986
Speaker 6: I heard the Red Fox music in my mind, I'm like,

165
00:09:29,066 --> 00:09:32,026
Speaker 6: this is that. This is just insane. You know, you

166
00:09:32,106 --> 00:09:32,666
Speaker 6: run out with a.

167
00:09:32,746 --> 00:09:36,906
Speaker 1: Foul Grandpa Simpson walks into Mo's with the hat and

168
00:09:36,906 --> 00:09:38,826
Speaker 1: walks right out. Is that what we're thinking like that?

169
00:09:39,146 --> 00:09:41,186
Speaker 6: I think it was like that. That might be when

170
00:09:41,746 --> 00:09:46,546
Speaker 6: we used it, but it was It's just absurd, it's crazy.

171
00:09:46,986 --> 00:09:49,426
Speaker 6: And then I was thinking like, well, because I was

172
00:09:49,466 --> 00:09:51,506
Speaker 6: half expecting him to get hurt this year. He's you know,

173
00:09:51,586 --> 00:09:54,266
Speaker 6: he's not a young man, He's like, well, if this

174
00:09:54,346 --> 00:09:56,346
Speaker 6: happened week eight, would that be better? And you know

175
00:09:56,346 --> 00:09:58,306
Speaker 6: what the answer would be, Yes, it would have been better.

176
00:09:58,946 --> 00:10:01,906
Speaker 6: Lucy would have gotten to see what was what I mean,

177
00:10:01,906 --> 00:10:05,746
Speaker 6: it would have been almost exactly like Brett Favre went

178
00:10:05,826 --> 00:10:09,666
Speaker 6: eight and three before he got hurt for us. But Peter,

179
00:10:10,186 --> 00:10:11,946
Speaker 6: it's just you know, you.

180
00:10:11,946 --> 00:10:15,586
Speaker 1: Know, I have a lot of Jets fans, and one

181
00:10:15,626 --> 00:10:17,466
Speaker 1: of them text me like, I'm just convinced we can't

182
00:10:17,466 --> 00:10:18,426
Speaker 1: have nice things.

183
00:10:18,986 --> 00:10:22,506
Speaker 6: Yeah, I texted you that too. Yeah, that's really no.

184
00:10:22,706 --> 00:10:24,626
Speaker 6: You start to kind of believe it, you know, I

185
00:10:25,106 --> 00:10:27,626
Speaker 6: don't actually wrote Mike Puma wrote a book about the Mets,

186
00:10:27,626 --> 00:10:30,146
Speaker 6: and I wrote the forward and I wrote about being Mets, Jets,

187
00:10:30,186 --> 00:10:33,466
Speaker 6: Nicks and how it's actually made me quite a negative person.

188
00:10:33,506 --> 00:10:37,306
Speaker 6: It really has. It's affected me genuinely, like in business,

189
00:10:37,346 --> 00:10:40,266
Speaker 6: you know, trying to get projects made in show business

190
00:10:40,346 --> 00:10:43,826
Speaker 6: is very hard, and with the first sign of trouble,

191
00:10:43,866 --> 00:10:45,866
Speaker 6: I'm always like, well that's it. Whenever it's not going

192
00:10:45,906 --> 00:10:48,786
Speaker 6: to happen, and my partners are always like, why are

193
00:10:48,826 --> 00:10:51,346
Speaker 6: you so negative, I'm like, because I'm a Mets, Jets

194
00:10:51,386 --> 00:10:54,266
Speaker 6: and Knicks fan, that's why. And they laugh, and I say, no,

195
00:10:54,346 --> 00:10:55,186
Speaker 6: I'm not kidding.

196
00:10:55,266 --> 00:10:56,026
Speaker 1: I'm serious.

197
00:10:56,066 --> 00:11:00,906
Speaker 6: It's absolutely true. I have come to expect Aaron Rodgers'

198
00:11:01,666 --> 00:11:05,066
Speaker 6: outcomes like that, like that's it, we're done, forget it,

199
00:11:05,466 --> 00:11:07,226
Speaker 6: you know, and of nice things.

200
00:11:07,546 --> 00:11:09,226
Speaker 1: Not to rub salt in the wounds here, but like

201
00:11:09,386 --> 00:11:12,226
Speaker 1: the thing that no one else was talking about that

202
00:11:12,226 --> 00:11:14,346
Speaker 1: the Jets coaches who I speak with often were saying,

203
00:11:14,386 --> 00:11:17,386
Speaker 1: is that Rogers would be there till eleven o'clock at night,

204
00:11:17,506 --> 00:11:20,146
Speaker 1: like working with random backup running backs on, like getting

205
00:11:20,186 --> 00:11:23,906
Speaker 1: the offense down. I reported this on Fox's pregame on Sunday.

206
00:11:24,586 --> 00:11:27,506
Speaker 1: He did something called a firing line exercise where he

207
00:11:27,506 --> 00:11:29,266
Speaker 1: would line up all the young players and they'd go

208
00:11:29,306 --> 00:11:31,226
Speaker 1: through every hand signal that he could possibly do, and

209
00:11:31,266 --> 00:11:32,466
Speaker 1: they had to know it. If they got it wrong,

210
00:11:32,466 --> 00:11:33,826
Speaker 1: they had to keep going till they got it right.

211
00:11:34,226 --> 00:11:37,546
Speaker 1: Like he was so invested in texting was Sola this morning,

212
00:11:37,586 --> 00:11:39,586
Speaker 1: and it's just like you feel for the fans, you

213
00:11:39,626 --> 00:11:43,746
Speaker 1: feel for us, you can pity us, you feel for Rogers.

214
00:11:44,546 --> 00:11:46,826
Speaker 6: Actually, you know, I had a crazy journey with this

215
00:11:46,946 --> 00:11:49,866
Speaker 6: because I disliked Aaron Rodgers by his end of the

216
00:11:49,906 --> 00:11:53,946
Speaker 6: time with Green Bay. Between all that craziness that was

217
00:11:53,986 --> 00:11:58,146
Speaker 6: going on there, and then the vaccination stuff and then

218
00:11:58,586 --> 00:12:02,346
Speaker 6: some other stuff. Right, I was like, man and being

219
00:12:02,386 --> 00:12:04,946
Speaker 6: a Hollywood creature as I am, like, you know what,

220
00:12:05,026 --> 00:12:07,186
Speaker 6: you know, what you don't need in most situations is

221
00:12:07,346 --> 00:12:11,346
Speaker 6: diva energy coming like old man, especially old man diva

222
00:12:11,466 --> 00:12:15,066
Speaker 6: energy like we just I was like, please just get

223
00:12:15,146 --> 00:12:19,666
Speaker 6: me Derek Carr, please, which is a nice daddy presence

224
00:12:19,666 --> 00:12:22,826
Speaker 6: in there, nice young fella who's gonna be a good

225
00:12:22,906 --> 00:12:25,746
Speaker 6: daddy and gonna work really hard. And I have a

226
00:12:25,786 --> 00:12:29,866
Speaker 6: feeling that Derek Carr was going to really uh improve

227
00:12:30,226 --> 00:12:32,586
Speaker 6: with a change of scenery, which we'll see if he does.

228
00:12:33,626 --> 00:12:37,746
Speaker 6: And then Man Rogers completely won me over just because

229
00:12:37,746 --> 00:12:40,586
Speaker 6: I didn't think he'd even show up for OTA's right,

230
00:12:40,666 --> 00:12:44,386
Speaker 6: if he'd work with the young receivers, I mean even

231
00:12:44,426 --> 00:12:47,826
Speaker 6: before hard knocks giving back all that money and everything

232
00:12:47,866 --> 00:12:50,226
Speaker 6: he did. And I'm like, I tweeted, I whatever I

233
00:12:50,226 --> 00:12:52,266
Speaker 6: put out, whatever you young people do on social I

234
00:12:52,266 --> 00:12:55,466
Speaker 6: put out this thing of he's gonna do this, He's

235
00:12:55,466 --> 00:12:57,826
Speaker 6: gonna he's gonna recreate your namath for us when he

236
00:12:57,906 --> 00:13:01,626
Speaker 6: runs off the field. I just totally bought and I

237
00:13:01,706 --> 00:13:03,706
Speaker 6: just I fell in love with the guy, you know,

238
00:13:03,826 --> 00:13:08,106
Speaker 6: and I was happy for him, happy Jets, happy for Sala.

239
00:13:08,506 --> 00:13:10,426
Speaker 6: I was even happy for Woody Johnson, which takes a

240
00:13:10,426 --> 00:13:11,866
Speaker 6: lot for me to get happy for that guy.

241
00:13:12,186 --> 00:13:14,426
Speaker 1: We talk about the humor and the gas and the stuff.

242
00:13:14,426 --> 00:13:16,226
Speaker 1: It like they go to the box and what he's wearing,

243
00:13:16,226 --> 00:13:19,386
Speaker 1: this ridiculous sauce gardener chain. Well, and it's just like

244
00:13:19,906 --> 00:13:22,426
Speaker 1: that is so Jets. Like he doesn't take off the chain.

245
00:13:22,546 --> 00:13:25,066
Speaker 1: He still has the ridiculous chain on and he's still

246
00:13:25,066 --> 00:13:27,546
Speaker 1: caught up in the and it's just it is. It's

247
00:13:27,546 --> 00:13:28,746
Speaker 1: the Jets.

248
00:13:28,786 --> 00:13:31,986
Speaker 6: It's Samuel Jets man. At bottom line is you'll look

249
00:13:32,066 --> 00:13:35,906
Speaker 6: back at this right and you'll just say, Samuel Jets.

250
00:13:35,546 --> 00:13:37,826
Speaker 1: Fun well lasted. Now here's the thing. There is a

251
00:13:37,826 --> 00:13:40,586
Speaker 1: whole season to play. You did beat the Bills last night.

252
00:13:40,666 --> 00:13:44,306
Speaker 1: I'm not silver lining guy in this. It's almost secondary

253
00:13:44,386 --> 00:13:47,386
Speaker 1: topic that they won. But can Zach Wilson just hold

254
00:13:47,386 --> 00:13:49,386
Speaker 1: the fort down and rely on the run game and

255
00:13:49,466 --> 00:13:51,426
Speaker 1: the defense and can we still be a playoff team?

256
00:13:51,506 --> 00:13:55,106
Speaker 6: I don't know, We'll see. I mean that sucks too.

257
00:13:55,146 --> 00:13:58,586
Speaker 6: It's like if Zach was gonna feels like Zach needed

258
00:13:58,626 --> 00:14:01,346
Speaker 6: a year or two, didn't if he was, and now

259
00:14:01,386 --> 00:14:05,506
Speaker 6: he's thrown back into the fire, which will probably end

260
00:14:05,546 --> 00:14:08,506
Speaker 6: his career because he probably not ready for it. There's

261
00:14:08,546 --> 00:14:13,106
Speaker 6: my you know, sunny Jets outlook coming forward. But you know,

262
00:14:13,666 --> 00:14:16,426
Speaker 6: I probably here's the thing about being Jets metchniks. When

263
00:14:16,426 --> 00:14:21,066
Speaker 6: you predict doom and gloom, you're usually right. And well, now,

264
00:14:21,106 --> 00:14:24,026
Speaker 6: I guess we'll really see. To me, kind of looked

265
00:14:24,026 --> 00:14:27,506
Speaker 6: the same last night, like I've you know, he played well,

266
00:14:27,586 --> 00:14:31,746
Speaker 6: but I've seen him play that well. Yeah, but I

267
00:14:31,746 --> 00:14:34,226
Speaker 6: don't know who else you bring in. Nothing else seems

268
00:14:34,226 --> 00:14:37,786
Speaker 6: realistic right now. And I guess I'm a poker player.

269
00:14:37,786 --> 00:14:39,866
Speaker 6: I was playing poker last night while this is going on.

270
00:14:39,986 --> 00:14:42,546
Speaker 6: To me, Zach is an inside straight draw, I meaning

271
00:14:42,906 --> 00:14:45,146
Speaker 6: four cards, you're outs with two cards to come. That's

272
00:14:45,186 --> 00:14:48,586
Speaker 6: a sixteen percent chance. That's about how I feel about Zach.

273
00:14:48,626 --> 00:14:50,066
Speaker 6: He's an inside straight draw.

274
00:14:50,986 --> 00:14:54,546
Speaker 1: It's an incredible analogy. It's incredible. I'll leave you on this.

275
00:14:55,706 --> 00:14:58,466
Speaker 1: You think back to the pregame. You've got Timberlake on

276
00:14:58,546 --> 00:15:01,346
Speaker 1: the sidelines, you got Jake Paul being trotted out, you

277
00:15:01,466 --> 00:15:06,426
Speaker 1: got all these luminary celebrities. Did you, in a little

278
00:15:06,466 --> 00:15:08,946
Speaker 1: bit of a glimmer of your jets cynical mind, think

279
00:15:08,986 --> 00:15:11,106
Speaker 1: this a little bit much before we get this game going.

280
00:15:11,186 --> 00:15:12,106
Speaker 1: Let's just play football.

281
00:15:12,106 --> 00:15:12,226
Speaker 2: Oh.

282
00:15:12,266 --> 00:15:14,466
Speaker 6: I've felt the hubris of this for a while, I

283
00:15:14,506 --> 00:15:16,786
Speaker 6: really have. I mean, all the super Bowl talk and

284
00:15:16,786 --> 00:15:20,226
Speaker 6: I'm like, you guys, please, and I've been saying uh

285
00:15:20,466 --> 00:15:22,986
Speaker 6: to anyone who listened. You know, I'll really just be

286
00:15:23,066 --> 00:15:25,826
Speaker 6: happy if we play well over the first five six games.

287
00:15:25,866 --> 00:15:28,906
Speaker 6: I mean honestly, you know, I mean, I want to

288
00:15:28,946 --> 00:15:33,786
Speaker 6: go to the playoffs, but I really let's let's calm

289
00:15:33,826 --> 00:15:36,986
Speaker 6: down here for a second. Rogers usually starts slow, and

290
00:15:37,026 --> 00:15:41,786
Speaker 6: he's not young, and I mean, so yeah, it was

291
00:15:42,786 --> 00:15:45,466
Speaker 6: a lot, a lot of hubrists and I feel, I

292
00:15:45,546 --> 00:15:48,186
Speaker 6: honestly feel embarrassed, literally embarrassed.

293
00:15:48,466 --> 00:15:51,586
Speaker 1: I feel stupid, all right, get into this because there

294
00:15:51,666 --> 00:15:54,306
Speaker 1: is a you think about buying in after knowing, and

295
00:15:54,346 --> 00:15:57,106
Speaker 1: you're you're coursened with this and you know this is

296
00:15:57,106 --> 00:15:59,266
Speaker 1: what Jimmy and Jet Finn is and yet you let

297
00:15:59,346 --> 00:16:01,586
Speaker 1: yourself get excited again. I feel that, you know.

298
00:16:01,706 --> 00:16:03,626
Speaker 6: It's even worse. I had to I had, I got

299
00:16:03,626 --> 00:16:06,626
Speaker 6: a little I missed it, I guess mercifully, I had

300
00:16:06,626 --> 00:16:08,666
Speaker 6: a school function. Sorry, it's loud. I had a school

301
00:16:08,666 --> 00:16:13,026
Speaker 6: function and I had I got to the game about

302
00:16:13,626 --> 00:16:15,746
Speaker 6: I watched it with my poker buddies the game last night.

303
00:16:15,906 --> 00:16:17,906
Speaker 6: Got there ten minutes lad, I walk in smiling, and

304
00:16:17,906 --> 00:16:20,146
Speaker 6: everybody's looking at me like, you don't know, do you.

305
00:16:20,306 --> 00:16:22,986
Speaker 6: I'm like, no, I didn't see it, and you hadn't

306
00:16:23,026 --> 00:16:27,066
Speaker 6: seen it. I walked in like five ten minutes after

307
00:16:27,106 --> 00:16:31,146
Speaker 6: it happened, and everybody's like, no, what. And I was like,

308
00:16:31,346 --> 00:16:32,946
Speaker 6: and I thought they were, you know, poker guys. I

309
00:16:32,946 --> 00:16:34,946
Speaker 6: thought they were kidding me. I thought they were joking,

310
00:16:34,986 --> 00:16:37,346
Speaker 6: of course, and then I saw it was all too real,

311
00:16:39,146 --> 00:16:41,106
Speaker 6: and you know, it was the saddest part was like

312
00:16:41,186 --> 00:16:43,266
Speaker 6: a buddy of mine, who a couple of buddies just

313
00:16:43,466 --> 00:16:46,506
Speaker 6: love ribbing me about you know, you know what's going

314
00:16:46,586 --> 00:16:48,186
Speaker 6: to happen. You know what's going to happen with the

315
00:16:48,266 --> 00:16:51,666
Speaker 6: Jets and the Mets. And even those guys didn't have

316
00:16:51,706 --> 00:16:55,066
Speaker 6: the heart to to give me, to give me crap

317
00:16:55,106 --> 00:16:58,066
Speaker 6: about it. They were like actually looking at me with sympathy.

318
00:16:58,066 --> 00:16:59,666
Speaker 6: I'm like, I think that's the worst part of all

319
00:16:59,706 --> 00:17:01,786
Speaker 6: this is you looking at me like you feel bad

320
00:17:01,786 --> 00:17:02,026
Speaker 6: for me.

321
00:17:02,106 --> 00:17:05,666
Speaker 1: Right, It's the first time like Patriots and Bills and

322
00:17:05,866 --> 00:17:08,906
Speaker 1: Dolphins are like feeling bad for the Jets fans because

323
00:17:08,906 --> 00:17:11,746
Speaker 1: even they can appreciate the human the feeling of letdown

324
00:17:11,906 --> 00:17:13,786
Speaker 1: and just as horrible.

325
00:17:14,466 --> 00:17:19,266
Speaker 6: I mean, at least giant fans can't say nothing today.

326
00:17:19,986 --> 00:17:23,146
Speaker 1: What was worse winning and losing Rogers for the season

327
00:17:23,346 --> 00:17:25,826
Speaker 1: or losing forty to nothing on national TV while you're

328
00:17:25,826 --> 00:17:28,106
Speaker 1: wearing a blue shirt's doing a blue out.

329
00:17:28,186 --> 00:17:30,546
Speaker 6: I'd probably be I'd honestly be more embarrassed by that

330
00:17:30,626 --> 00:17:31,266
Speaker 6: giant loss.

331
00:17:31,306 --> 00:17:35,066
Speaker 1: Personally, man, I feel you. I feel like you're the

332
00:17:35,146 --> 00:17:38,266
Speaker 1: voice of thousands and thousands of fans, and you know,

333
00:17:38,346 --> 00:17:40,786
Speaker 1: Jets fans they're all over La now, they're all over floor,

334
00:17:40,906 --> 00:17:42,026
Speaker 1: like I met that when I let it do it,

335
00:17:42,146 --> 00:17:45,506
Speaker 1: like New York fans are everywhere, and this one I

336
00:17:45,546 --> 00:17:47,746
Speaker 1: felt like reverberated throughout the country. And you're the voice

337
00:17:47,746 --> 00:17:48,946
Speaker 1: of it right now on the pod.

338
00:17:49,506 --> 00:17:51,626
Speaker 6: That said, I mean, it was a gutty win. I

339
00:17:51,666 --> 00:17:53,986
Speaker 6: got to give them credit. I mean, that was amazing

340
00:17:54,866 --> 00:17:57,946
Speaker 6: and it's just but how well that defense played, because

341
00:17:58,026 --> 00:18:00,506
Speaker 6: last year they were great, but they four turnovers. They

342
00:18:00,546 --> 00:18:02,906
Speaker 6: didn't get that many turnovers last year, you know, and

343
00:18:03,506 --> 00:18:06,826
Speaker 6: it was amazing to see them busted up like that

344
00:18:07,226 --> 00:18:10,906
Speaker 6: and get that gutty Win. Who knows. Maybe football is

345
00:18:10,906 --> 00:18:14,746
Speaker 6: a crazy, crazy thing. Man, Stranger things have happened. Who

346
00:18:14,786 --> 00:18:16,186
Speaker 6: knows what could happen this season.

347
00:18:16,506 --> 00:18:19,586
Speaker 1: So I was talking to coaches this morning from the Jets,

348
00:18:19,586 --> 00:18:21,306
Speaker 1: texting them, and the real takeaway for me is like,

349
00:18:21,306 --> 00:18:24,346
Speaker 1: all right, if Hackett had won, or if Todd Downing

350
00:18:24,386 --> 00:18:26,266
Speaker 1: had won, or if Sala had won with Rogers, it's

351
00:18:26,266 --> 00:18:29,386
Speaker 1: a great story. If these guys can do it with

352
00:18:29,506 --> 00:18:32,386
Speaker 1: this team without Rogers after the deflation, now that's a

353
00:18:32,426 --> 00:18:35,466
Speaker 1: really great story and it almost adds another chapter. So

354
00:18:35,466 --> 00:18:38,266
Speaker 1: there is a silver lining, cool wrinkle to this. If

355
00:18:38,266 --> 00:18:41,106
Speaker 1: they could put it together, It's it's almost like, hey,

356
00:18:41,146 --> 00:18:42,786
Speaker 1: we won one for the Gipper, but we also did

357
00:18:42,786 --> 00:18:43,546
Speaker 1: it for ourselves.

358
00:18:44,266 --> 00:18:47,266
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was impressive. You gotta admit that they that

359
00:18:47,426 --> 00:18:52,426
Speaker 6: was demoralizing, demoralizing and they throre down ten and they

360
00:18:52,466 --> 00:18:55,066
Speaker 6: came back and won that game. I mean that's something

361
00:18:55,186 --> 00:18:57,906
Speaker 6: that is, you know, proud of those guys on nine

362
00:18:57,946 --> 00:18:59,306
Speaker 6: to eleven. I mean that was good.

363
00:19:00,226 --> 00:19:02,626
Speaker 1: Hanka's area, We love you, Thank you for coming on.

364
00:19:02,746 --> 00:19:05,026
Speaker 1: I know you're busy and obviously this morning is not

365
00:19:05,106 --> 00:19:08,466
Speaker 1: a fun and happy topic for Jets fans, and yet

366
00:19:08,506 --> 00:19:10,426
Speaker 1: I felt like we needed to get your insurer actions.

367
00:19:10,466 --> 00:19:12,466
Speaker 6: Can I shack on a personal Notekay, I just got

368
00:19:12,506 --> 00:19:15,746
Speaker 6: a hair looking okay, and I just the girl cut

369
00:19:15,786 --> 00:19:17,546
Speaker 6: my hair. The young lady cut my hair, and she

370
00:19:17,626 --> 00:19:20,266
Speaker 6: asked me, are you a senior? So that that was

371
00:19:20,306 --> 00:19:21,746
Speaker 6: like insult to injury.

372
00:19:21,466 --> 00:19:23,586
Speaker 1: Today, Good morning, Hank.

373
00:19:23,466 --> 00:19:25,106
Speaker 6: I said, yes, I'm an old Jets fan.

374
00:19:25,506 --> 00:19:25,866
Speaker 5: It's good.

375
00:19:26,506 --> 00:19:28,826
Speaker 1: That's it. On that note, we love you man, thank

376
00:19:28,866 --> 00:19:36,826
Speaker 1: you for joining. This is like a shive a call.

377
00:19:36,946 --> 00:19:39,546
Speaker 1: In my culture, we call this and it wasn't enough

378
00:19:39,626 --> 00:19:43,106
Speaker 1: just to have our guy Hank's area call in and

379
00:19:43,106 --> 00:19:46,146
Speaker 1: give his fifteen minutes of sadness and dietract. I want

380
00:19:46,146 --> 00:19:49,626
Speaker 1: to go to maybe the biggest Jets fan I know.

381
00:19:49,866 --> 00:19:52,026
Speaker 1: It's my friend David. David has been a season ticket

382
00:19:52,026 --> 00:19:54,266
Speaker 1: holder for many many years. He travels on the road,

383
00:19:54,306 --> 00:19:57,786
Speaker 1: goes to games. He never misses a home game. And i'mlike, Hank,

384
00:19:57,866 --> 00:20:00,786
Speaker 1: David is actually in the building. David, how are you

385
00:20:00,826 --> 00:20:01,626
Speaker 1: feeling this morning?

386
00:20:02,066 --> 00:20:06,426
Speaker 5: But today I'm daged in disbelief, but I'm not shocked.

387
00:20:07,026 --> 00:20:08,146
Speaker 5: Go on, you knew he was on.

388
00:20:08,426 --> 00:20:08,906
Speaker 1: Explain it.

389
00:20:09,026 --> 00:20:10,866
Speaker 3: You knew he was gonna get Nick. You knew he

390
00:20:10,986 --> 00:20:13,946
Speaker 3: was gonna get banned up. You have a porous offensive line,

391
00:20:14,306 --> 00:20:17,546
Speaker 3: get it. A great Hall of Fame quarterback Aaric Argers,

392
00:20:17,866 --> 00:20:22,506
Speaker 3: but not the most mobile quarterback. And I looked back

393
00:20:22,586 --> 00:20:26,346
Speaker 3: in the top. So Douglas since day one saying I'm

394
00:20:26,346 --> 00:20:27,386
Speaker 3: gonna build an offensive line.

395
00:20:27,386 --> 00:20:30,186
Speaker 5: I'm gonna build an offensive line. He's ignored it. He

396
00:20:30,306 --> 00:20:30,706
Speaker 5: got Allen.

397
00:20:30,826 --> 00:20:33,386
Speaker 3: I's sorry, you got some other received from Green Bay.

398
00:20:33,386 --> 00:20:35,506
Speaker 3: You get this guy, you got that guy. My heart

399
00:20:35,586 --> 00:20:41,066
Speaker 3: is broken. The defense, solid, great young talent, great heart.

400
00:20:41,546 --> 00:20:44,386
Speaker 5: They didn't quit. They won the game. They beat the Bills.

401
00:20:44,586 --> 00:20:47,626
Speaker 3: They kicked their butt on the line of scrimmage on defense,

402
00:20:47,666 --> 00:20:49,186
Speaker 3: they kick their butt in the secondary.

403
00:20:50,466 --> 00:20:52,946
Speaker 5: But now, what are you doing? Zack Wilson and zero.

404
00:20:53,066 --> 00:20:55,866
Speaker 3: He's a thirty second ranked quarterback out of thirty two

405
00:20:55,906 --> 00:20:58,546
Speaker 3: in the NFL. Everybody knew that going into the season.

406
00:20:58,586 --> 00:21:00,706
Speaker 3: You're sure enough of it last year in the year before.

407
00:21:01,026 --> 00:21:03,626
Speaker 3: You're not gonna win the AFC's, You're not going to

408
00:21:03,666 --> 00:21:05,546
Speaker 3: the playoffs with Zach Wilson.

409
00:21:06,586 --> 00:21:09,146
Speaker 5: GM should have had a backup quarterback.

410
00:21:09,346 --> 00:21:14,626
Speaker 3: It's that simple, solid backup quarterback by Sam Donald. Whoever

411
00:21:14,706 --> 00:21:17,106
Speaker 3: you have at any great team, they got somebody to

412
00:21:17,146 --> 00:21:17,626
Speaker 3: step in.

413
00:21:18,226 --> 00:21:22,666
Speaker 5: Zach Wilson was, you know, a bad pick move on.

414
00:21:23,146 --> 00:21:25,906
Speaker 3: Sam just Goo moved off from Trey Land, same draft,

415
00:21:26,026 --> 00:21:27,026
Speaker 3: same draft class.

416
00:21:27,826 --> 00:21:30,226
Speaker 5: But you know, I don't know where you go from here.

417
00:21:30,346 --> 00:21:31,626
Speaker 5: I'm devastated.

418
00:21:32,346 --> 00:21:34,946
Speaker 1: Take me the high and the low because, like before kickoff,

419
00:21:35,226 --> 00:21:37,306
Speaker 1: you've been a sittent ticket holder since Shaye Stadium.

420
00:21:37,386 --> 00:21:40,266
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Chase Stadium. I was there from the beginning. Yeah,

421
00:21:40,346 --> 00:21:42,506
Speaker 3: nineteen sixty six, So.

422
00:21:42,546 --> 00:21:46,466
Speaker 1: You've been there nineteen sixty six. That pregame and you've

423
00:21:46,506 --> 00:21:49,386
Speaker 1: got celebrities and Justin Timberlake is dap In Rocks.

424
00:21:49,426 --> 00:21:52,346
Speaker 3: It was my boys turned to me, all three of

425
00:21:52,346 --> 00:21:54,306
Speaker 3: my sons serving to me and said, I feel like

426
00:21:54,426 --> 00:21:57,786
Speaker 3: I am in Miami. It was seventy five degrees. The

427
00:21:57,826 --> 00:22:00,426
Speaker 3: place was lit up, but it was like Super Bowl

428
00:22:00,786 --> 00:22:05,186
Speaker 3: three years ago, twenty twenty. That kind of electricity, that

429
00:22:05,306 --> 00:22:09,106
Speaker 3: kind of power, kind of enthusiasm, that kind of belief

430
00:22:09,186 --> 00:22:12,506
Speaker 3: that yes, we are here, this is our.

431
00:22:12,506 --> 00:22:13,346
Speaker 1: Time, right.

432
00:22:14,146 --> 00:22:15,306
Speaker 5: It never stopped.

433
00:22:15,586 --> 00:22:19,266
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously after that fourth play, we were all

434
00:22:19,306 --> 00:22:23,586
Speaker 3: stunned and shocked, but I never showed the stitium like that. Never,

435
00:22:23,826 --> 00:22:27,066
Speaker 3: even in sixty eight when name of one and Chase

436
00:22:27,106 --> 00:22:30,986
Speaker 3: Citium went to the Super Bowl sixty nine. It was exciting,

437
00:22:31,946 --> 00:22:34,706
Speaker 3: but this was more elected. There's something about ninety eleven.

438
00:22:35,866 --> 00:22:38,866
Speaker 3: The whole country is watching, The whole world is watching.

439
00:22:38,986 --> 00:22:43,426
Speaker 3: Aaron has come in and to everybody's you know, negative

440
00:22:43,506 --> 00:22:47,786
Speaker 3: feelings about him, embraced the team, embraced the culture, embraced

441
00:22:47,826 --> 00:22:52,786
Speaker 3: the city, embraced roadway, embraced the ballet, embraced the restaurant,

442
00:22:53,066 --> 00:22:56,946
Speaker 3: embraced the young kids, helped Makay back then, helped all

443
00:22:56,986 --> 00:22:59,466
Speaker 3: his teammates, cut his salary.

444
00:22:59,946 --> 00:23:01,906
Speaker 5: He did more than all the right things.

445
00:23:02,066 --> 00:23:07,146
Speaker 3: He did all the right things times acts and we're all,

446
00:23:07,186 --> 00:23:11,906
Speaker 3: you know, embracing him and embracing the Jets culture. And

447
00:23:12,826 --> 00:23:15,666
Speaker 3: I don't know how you replaced them. They should have

448
00:23:15,706 --> 00:23:17,986
Speaker 3: had somebody to step in a little bit better than

449
00:23:18,146 --> 00:23:20,746
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson know what he is, but.

450
00:23:22,386 --> 00:23:22,666
Speaker 5: I don't know.

451
00:23:22,986 --> 00:23:25,586
Speaker 1: It's it's a cruel joke. I mean, honestly, we had

452
00:23:25,586 --> 00:23:27,986
Speaker 1: Hank's are on before you, the actor and comedian, and

453
00:23:28,026 --> 00:23:31,786
Speaker 1: he said, you know, he was embarrassed because he started

454
00:23:31,786 --> 00:23:33,986
Speaker 1: to believe. And like, if you're a Jets fans in

455
00:23:34,106 --> 00:23:37,626
Speaker 1: sixty six, you know that this isn't going to go swimmingly.

456
00:23:37,666 --> 00:23:41,066
Speaker 1: But he said, I'm embarrassed this morning because I resisted.

457
00:23:41,106 --> 00:23:44,026
Speaker 1: I resisted. I resisted, and as Rogers is coming out

458
00:23:44,066 --> 00:23:47,026
Speaker 1: of that tunnel, I let the good feelings wash over

459
00:23:47,106 --> 00:23:49,666
Speaker 1: me and I let it go and I started to believe.

460
00:23:49,826 --> 00:23:51,826
Speaker 1: And how silly am I? Why would I ever believe?

461
00:23:52,586 --> 00:23:56,186
Speaker 3: You know, I get that, But I don't hold that

462
00:23:56,266 --> 00:23:58,586
Speaker 3: attitude because I would have left a long time ago.

463
00:23:59,306 --> 00:24:02,186
Speaker 3: Even after Rogers went down and I, as saws Zach Gilson,

464
00:24:02,226 --> 00:24:05,666
Speaker 3: a quarterback, I said, we could win this game. We're

465
00:24:05,826 --> 00:24:09,466
Speaker 3: Jets die haod down deep. We're not quitting on them.

466
00:24:09,826 --> 00:24:12,026
Speaker 3: They're not quitting on the field. I watched the guys

467
00:24:12,106 --> 00:24:14,946
Speaker 3: come come back to the locker room at halftime. They

468
00:24:14,986 --> 00:24:18,506
Speaker 3: weren't hanging their heads, they weren't in shock. There was

469
00:24:18,546 --> 00:24:21,106
Speaker 3: a sense that, you know what, in a way, this

470
00:24:21,226 --> 00:24:23,026
Speaker 3: is going to be a true test of who we are.

471
00:24:23,426 --> 00:24:25,466
Speaker 3: Let's go out and prove to the world that we're

472
00:24:25,586 --> 00:24:26,706
Speaker 3: not just one man team.

473
00:24:26,706 --> 00:24:27,186
Speaker 5: We're a team.

474
00:24:27,666 --> 00:24:30,426
Speaker 3: Maybe Rogers's still that in them. I think his spirits

475
00:24:30,466 --> 00:24:33,226
Speaker 3: with them. How long that could last? You know, because

476
00:24:33,346 --> 00:24:35,466
Speaker 3: eventually it comes down to what you do on the field.

477
00:24:35,506 --> 00:24:39,346
Speaker 3: And the quarterback position. But I don't I don't embrace that.

478
00:24:39,426 --> 00:24:43,266
Speaker 3: I was still proud, still sharing, still screaming. My voice

479
00:24:43,786 --> 00:24:46,866
Speaker 3: is harsh, irom all the screaming. You know, whatever time

480
00:24:46,906 --> 00:24:53,066
Speaker 3: it was midnight with that kick return, beautiful, it was beautiful, great, great, great.

481
00:24:53,106 --> 00:24:56,786
Speaker 3: I give all the credit to the defensive coordinator, guys,

482
00:24:56,986 --> 00:25:01,906
Speaker 3: rock Star, give all the credit to Salah. He embraced

483
00:25:01,906 --> 00:25:06,266
Speaker 3: the proper emotion and let them. Obviously your leaders are

484
00:25:06,506 --> 00:25:10,186
Speaker 3: on offensive defense. They were him, Moseley and both Williams,

485
00:25:10,226 --> 00:25:13,706
Speaker 3: and they can't see enough about those steps. Great talent,

486
00:25:13,946 --> 00:25:17,506
Speaker 3: great young talent, great heart. So yeah, I'm not I'm

487
00:25:17,546 --> 00:25:18,506
Speaker 3: not embarrassed at all.

488
00:25:18,946 --> 00:25:20,906
Speaker 1: In the moment we were texting, you were in the stadium,

489
00:25:20,946 --> 00:25:22,346
Speaker 1: You're like, what are they saying on TV? I'm like,

490
00:25:22,346 --> 00:25:24,586
Speaker 1: I don't have an update. You know, Lisa Salters is

491
00:25:24,626 --> 00:25:26,546
Speaker 1: not exactly on it in the second and it took

492
00:25:26,706 --> 00:25:28,826
Speaker 1: a few drives before they said ankle injury. But I

493
00:25:28,866 --> 00:25:31,626
Speaker 1: said to you over text, I've done this a long time,

494
00:25:31,986 --> 00:25:34,226
Speaker 1: had an ankle injury. I knew it was Achilles. Just

495
00:25:34,226 --> 00:25:36,746
Speaker 1: by the way. With that, I said, Achilles in real time,

496
00:25:36,786 --> 00:25:37,506
Speaker 1: I know this stuff.

497
00:25:37,906 --> 00:25:39,826
Speaker 5: We couldn't tell sitting in the stand, I was.

498
00:25:39,786 --> 00:25:42,426
Speaker 1: Gonna say in the building, this feeling of hope.

499
00:25:42,946 --> 00:25:44,066
Speaker 5: You knew it was bad.

500
00:25:44,626 --> 00:25:47,266
Speaker 1: You knew once you saw the cart.

501
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:49,666
Speaker 5: No, yeah, the cart just cemented it.

502
00:25:49,706 --> 00:25:53,186
Speaker 3: But even the way he got off, did not take

503
00:25:53,226 --> 00:25:55,706
Speaker 3: a step, was thinking about taking a step, and then

504
00:25:55,906 --> 00:25:59,146
Speaker 3: just sat down and you saw his face, you saw

505
00:25:59,186 --> 00:26:02,906
Speaker 3: his body motions. You knew it was very seriously what

506
00:26:03,106 --> 00:26:05,466
Speaker 3: acl it could have been an act we couldn't see,

507
00:26:05,506 --> 00:26:06,386
Speaker 3: you know from the stand.

508
00:26:06,466 --> 00:26:08,746
Speaker 5: That's exactly which part of it's like it was. But

509
00:26:08,786 --> 00:26:10,706
Speaker 5: you knew it was bad. You know it was if

510
00:26:10,746 --> 00:26:12,906
Speaker 5: that season ending at least six eight weeks.

511
00:26:13,266 --> 00:26:15,826
Speaker 1: Not to wallow in your sadness on this, but you've

512
00:26:15,826 --> 00:26:19,106
Speaker 1: been a fans in sixty six offhand? Is this the

513
00:26:19,146 --> 00:26:22,346
Speaker 1: biggest disappointment? Is this the biggest letdown? Is this team

514
00:26:22,386 --> 00:26:24,146
Speaker 1: the one that you got most excited for? Is this

515
00:26:24,226 --> 00:26:26,586
Speaker 1: injury something I'm thinking about it. I'm going to my head,

516
00:26:26,626 --> 00:26:28,506
Speaker 1: Like they lost in the AFTC Championship game when they're

517
00:26:28,506 --> 00:26:30,986
Speaker 1: beating the Broncos that year, and they lost in a

518
00:26:31,026 --> 00:26:32,826
Speaker 1: couple of games, but like they were never supposed to

519
00:26:32,826 --> 00:26:35,426
Speaker 1: be those teams. To not see Rogers complete a pass

520
00:26:35,426 --> 00:26:37,426
Speaker 1: in the New York Jets uniform. After this whole summer

521
00:26:37,506 --> 00:26:41,146
Speaker 1: of excitement, I can't imagine anything lower it gets.

522
00:26:40,426 --> 00:26:43,946
Speaker 3: It gets to rank in the top five for Shore.

523
00:26:43,986 --> 00:26:45,746
Speaker 3: I was there when Vinnie went down. I was with

524
00:26:45,906 --> 00:26:47,306
Speaker 3: Vinnie last night before the game.

525
00:26:47,386 --> 00:26:50,106
Speaker 5: By anyway, we're yeah, he looks great.

526
00:26:50,306 --> 00:26:54,266
Speaker 3: He's living in Tampa, he's doing some work, he's happy.

527
00:26:54,306 --> 00:26:56,986
Speaker 3: He was thrilled to be there last night. He embraced

528
00:26:56,986 --> 00:26:58,066
Speaker 3: the whole Jet culture.

529
00:26:58,666 --> 00:27:01,386
Speaker 1: You know, the crazy parallel that people are making. You

530
00:27:01,386 --> 00:27:04,426
Speaker 1: know that ninety nine season was after the AFC Championship game,

531
00:27:04,466 --> 00:27:07,266
Speaker 1: and it was the first game and an nny Vinnie

532
00:27:07,306 --> 00:27:10,026
Speaker 1: rips his achilles, and that's the season they go. And

533
00:27:10,026 --> 00:27:12,466
Speaker 1: it was eerily similar. And when Vinnie's in the building,

534
00:27:12,586 --> 00:27:13,266
Speaker 1: it's very.

535
00:27:13,666 --> 00:27:16,346
Speaker 5: It was like, this is scripted, right, this is scripted.

536
00:27:16,386 --> 00:27:18,306
Speaker 1: This is a reality in the worst way.

537
00:27:18,386 --> 00:27:23,546
Speaker 5: The worst possible way. But you got enough. This team

538
00:27:23,666 --> 00:27:26,706
Speaker 5: was built to win now, right. You can't think about

539
00:27:27,066 --> 00:27:30,226
Speaker 5: let's let's just tank for Caleb Williams.

540
00:27:30,346 --> 00:27:30,506
Speaker 1: Right.

541
00:27:30,586 --> 00:27:33,466
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, that's a pipe tree that ain't happening.

542
00:27:33,986 --> 00:27:37,026
Speaker 3: So you have to go out and do something today

543
00:27:38,106 --> 00:27:42,306
Speaker 3: that's very different. You have to have a brilliant GM

544
00:27:42,706 --> 00:27:47,386
Speaker 3: that has the capacity to think through something that is

545
00:27:47,866 --> 00:27:52,306
Speaker 3: not your typical move, not your predictable move, but something

546
00:27:52,386 --> 00:27:54,346
Speaker 3: out of the box. I don't know what it is,

547
00:27:54,506 --> 00:27:56,106
Speaker 3: obviously people are talking about.

548
00:27:56,226 --> 00:27:57,946
Speaker 1: All right, let's let's skip to it. Then let me

549
00:27:57,986 --> 00:27:59,826
Speaker 1: do okay, because the names that be mentioned on TV

550
00:27:59,906 --> 00:28:02,066
Speaker 1: are all moderate, like Matt Ryan. You don't want Matt

551
00:28:02,106 --> 00:28:05,946
Speaker 1: Ryan at the same you know Carton, sure, sure, yeah,

552
00:28:05,986 --> 00:28:08,906
Speaker 1: you want to come Matt Ryan. Apparently Carson Wentz. No,

553
00:28:09,146 --> 00:28:11,026
Speaker 1: Colt McCoy is not when he gets any Super Bowls.

554
00:28:11,026 --> 00:28:16,106
Speaker 1: Here's the big one. You operate in New York circles.

555
00:28:16,546 --> 00:28:21,266
Speaker 1: You know how these things go and these would you

556
00:28:21,306 --> 00:28:23,386
Speaker 1: call up Tom Brady this morning and say, hey, do

557
00:28:23,426 --> 00:28:24,186
Speaker 1: you got one more in you?

558
00:28:24,506 --> 00:28:26,466
Speaker 5: And he would absolutely take the phone call.

559
00:28:27,266 --> 00:28:28,626
Speaker 1: Would you think you would take the.

560
00:28:28,546 --> 00:28:33,746
Speaker 3: Phone competitive animal? He's a competitive animal. He's gonna think

561
00:28:33,946 --> 00:28:38,386
Speaker 3: through and way and analyze pros and cuts. He's already

562
00:28:38,426 --> 00:28:41,586
Speaker 3: done it, like whether approach. I'm back in New York,

563
00:28:41,866 --> 00:28:45,826
Speaker 3: I'm back on top. This is you know, a hero's

564
00:28:45,986 --> 00:28:50,226
Speaker 3: ending to the greatest career ever. They have the talent.

565
00:28:50,626 --> 00:28:53,266
Speaker 3: They may have to pick up an offensive linement, but

566
00:28:53,306 --> 00:28:57,906
Speaker 3: they certainly have the talent, hackets and goods of suh

567
00:28:58,826 --> 00:29:02,586
Speaker 3: or the DC. I forgot his name was John hoebrig.

568
00:29:02,626 --> 00:29:05,026
Speaker 3: I mean they want to Jackson wanted Firemans first year.

569
00:29:05,026 --> 00:29:07,626
Speaker 3: It's ridiculous. The guy is just, you know, one of

570
00:29:07,666 --> 00:29:09,106
Speaker 3: the best that doesn't get the credit.

571
00:29:09,666 --> 00:29:09,786
Speaker 6: Uh.

572
00:29:10,146 --> 00:29:13,586
Speaker 5: He's weighing that. It's not about buddy. He loves New York.

573
00:29:14,186 --> 00:29:16,666
Speaker 5: He hates the Jets one than anything in the world.

574
00:29:16,746 --> 00:29:17,906
Speaker 5: When I saw him last.

575
00:29:19,226 --> 00:29:21,226
Speaker 1: No, no, you said, you think you think.

576
00:29:21,506 --> 00:29:25,346
Speaker 3: Brady, Well, the last time I saw him with a

577
00:29:25,426 --> 00:29:27,586
Speaker 3: couple of guys and one of them, you know, David's

578
00:29:27,586 --> 00:29:30,546
Speaker 3: a big Jeff fan, and he it up. He was

579
00:29:30,626 --> 00:29:34,306
Speaker 3: so excited to jump all over there. It's too bad.

580
00:29:34,386 --> 00:29:38,106
Speaker 3: Remember this game. Remember that game. Remember Brandy Moss and

581
00:29:38,266 --> 00:29:40,546
Speaker 3: the last player in the first stelf. I mean it's

582
00:29:40,626 --> 00:29:43,426
Speaker 3: photographic memory every time he beat us, right, and it's

583
00:29:43,466 --> 00:29:45,826
Speaker 3: a lot of them, a lot of highlight. So in

584
00:29:45,906 --> 00:29:51,186
Speaker 3: a way to turn that hatred is it's very very

585
00:29:51,506 --> 00:29:56,506
Speaker 3: uh literary and and you know, inspiring in a certain way,

586
00:29:57,226 --> 00:29:59,146
Speaker 3: you know, in terms of taking a view on life

587
00:29:59,746 --> 00:30:02,826
Speaker 3: that you know, maybe I do something out of the box, unpredictable.

588
00:30:03,186 --> 00:30:06,146
Speaker 3: The part I don't know is physically you know, where's

589
00:30:06,186 --> 00:30:09,386
Speaker 3: his and for forty one forty two he's probably in

590
00:30:09,426 --> 00:30:10,906
Speaker 3: the best self of anybody in the world. But I

591
00:30:10,986 --> 00:30:13,946
Speaker 3: see football ready and my guess is he's not at

592
00:30:13,986 --> 00:30:18,786
Speaker 3: all Ash've been And you know he's got a good

593
00:30:18,866 --> 00:30:22,826
Speaker 3: gig down in Vegas by the way, by somebody tickets.

594
00:30:23,066 --> 00:30:25,146
Speaker 3: I got off for a quarter million dollars my six

595
00:30:25,226 --> 00:30:28,026
Speaker 3: seats before the game. I probably could sell out for

596
00:30:28,146 --> 00:30:36,586
Speaker 3: fifty bucks today the big financial turn in for a place, right,

597
00:30:37,826 --> 00:30:41,626
Speaker 3: But I think I would make the call, he answers, Yes,

598
00:30:41,906 --> 00:30:44,026
Speaker 3: I think ninety ten. He doesn't do it, but he'll

599
00:30:44,466 --> 00:30:47,346
Speaker 3: consider it. He's a very smart, thoughtful guy.

600
00:30:47,906 --> 00:30:48,066
Speaker 6: You know.

601
00:30:48,146 --> 00:30:51,706
Speaker 1: It's funny. He was at the Patriots game obviously, so

602
00:30:51,946 --> 00:30:54,506
Speaker 1: from people who were there in New England, they were like,

603
00:30:54,946 --> 00:30:57,586
Speaker 1: a he's got the glimmer in his eyes still, like

604
00:30:57,666 --> 00:30:59,586
Speaker 1: he's still You could see he loved being in that arena.

605
00:31:00,346 --> 00:31:03,066
Speaker 1: He's a solid fifteen to twenty pounds lighter than he

606
00:31:03,386 --> 00:31:04,466
Speaker 1: was oh yeah last year.

607
00:31:04,626 --> 00:31:05,426
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, he looks that.

608
00:31:05,666 --> 00:31:08,066
Speaker 1: He looks very And then the other side of this

609
00:31:08,266 --> 00:31:11,226
Speaker 1: is he currently owns a piece of the Raiders, so

610
00:31:11,306 --> 00:31:13,186
Speaker 1: that would have to be a lot of legality stuff

611
00:31:13,186 --> 00:31:14,906
Speaker 1: with the league. But I'm sure the league, if Brady

612
00:31:14,946 --> 00:31:16,426
Speaker 1: wanted to come back, they figure that out and we

613
00:31:16,466 --> 00:31:17,146
Speaker 1: could expedite that.

614
00:31:17,546 --> 00:31:19,546
Speaker 5: I mean, Mark Davis would figure that out.

615
00:31:19,946 --> 00:31:23,186
Speaker 3: But who else is Yeah, I'm thinking out for back.

616
00:31:23,626 --> 00:31:26,426
Speaker 3: I don't go back to tradition. I say give me

617
00:31:26,506 --> 00:31:29,546
Speaker 3: going back that has leg that's young, that I could

618
00:31:29,666 --> 00:31:31,906
Speaker 3: throw in there. I won't make mistakes, but could make

619
00:31:31,946 --> 00:31:34,706
Speaker 3: plays with his legs, that has the capacity with the

620
00:31:34,786 --> 00:31:38,586
Speaker 3: braid to not just that break frim So Will.

621
00:31:38,466 --> 00:31:41,986
Speaker 1: Is all right, So the you don't Malik's so young.

622
00:31:42,066 --> 00:31:44,506
Speaker 1: That's like having Zach Wilson out there. They're not proven.

623
00:31:44,546 --> 00:31:46,706
Speaker 1: You'd want like a Tyrod Taylor. Who the Giants have

624
00:31:47,386 --> 00:31:51,866
Speaker 1: in that sense, you'd want he? Does you know Huntly?

625
00:31:51,986 --> 00:31:55,786
Speaker 1: Maybe Huntley on the Ravens, the backup to Lamar He Like,

626
00:31:56,266 --> 00:31:58,146
Speaker 1: are these guys that much better than Zach Wilson At

627
00:31:58,186 --> 00:32:00,746
Speaker 1: this point? I don't know Andy Dalton. Do you want Dalton?

628
00:32:00,786 --> 00:32:02,586
Speaker 1: He's down in Carolina mentoring Bryce Young.

629
00:32:02,746 --> 00:32:05,986
Speaker 3: Okay, let me let me make a real simple anybody's

630
00:32:06,026 --> 00:32:10,266
Speaker 3: better than anybody can put it there because he was

631
00:32:10,306 --> 00:32:10,866
Speaker 3: the game for you.

632
00:32:11,066 --> 00:32:16,146
Speaker 5: He cannot the greatest catch of the season. It was

633
00:32:16,186 --> 00:32:18,226
Speaker 5: Garrett Wilson, right, Why was.

634
00:32:18,266 --> 00:32:19,186
Speaker 1: That a terrible pass?

635
00:32:19,266 --> 00:32:21,986
Speaker 5: The worst pass that was thrown to the wrong shoulder,

636
00:32:22,066 --> 00:32:25,546
Speaker 5: That was a that was a pick hard.

637
00:32:26,186 --> 00:32:29,666
Speaker 3: So everything you needed to see. He threw interceptions into

638
00:32:30,066 --> 00:32:33,586
Speaker 3: triple covers. He threw it into the dirt. He's running back,

639
00:32:33,666 --> 00:32:36,226
Speaker 3: which he's got got that high school mentality. I'm going

640
00:32:36,266 --> 00:32:38,106
Speaker 3: to run around and run around and then I'm going

641
00:32:38,146 --> 00:32:40,946
Speaker 3: to make a mistake trying to make something great happen.

642
00:32:41,306 --> 00:32:42,386
Speaker 5: That hasn't changed.

643
00:32:42,426 --> 00:32:45,866
Speaker 3: He is who is he is not nf already processing

644
00:32:46,026 --> 00:32:50,666
Speaker 3: ability to see the field, make quick decisions, and then actor.

645
00:32:51,026 --> 00:32:54,026
Speaker 5: He's just you cannot go more than one or two

646
00:32:54,106 --> 00:32:55,426
Speaker 5: games for him. That's it.

647
00:32:55,986 --> 00:32:57,946
Speaker 1: One last one for you and not a player. It's

648
00:32:57,986 --> 00:32:59,466
Speaker 1: a because I just I don't know whether this is

649
00:32:59,506 --> 00:33:01,466
Speaker 1: gonna where reaction is going to be what you want

650
00:33:01,506 --> 00:33:04,186
Speaker 1: to say publicly, but I think if you represent Jets fans,

651
00:33:04,226 --> 00:33:07,186
Speaker 1: you have a certain cringe factor to this. So Rogers

652
00:33:07,786 --> 00:33:12,386
Speaker 1: is down, snaps his achilles. They're going sideline, sideline, and

653
00:33:12,466 --> 00:33:14,746
Speaker 1: then they show the owner's box and wood. He has

654
00:33:14,826 --> 00:33:18,986
Speaker 1: a giant diamond encrusted sauce gardener necklace still on while

655
00:33:19,026 --> 00:33:21,986
Speaker 1: he's like taking calls about Rogers. You can't make it up, David.

656
00:33:22,506 --> 00:33:25,586
Speaker 5: No, no, I mean I've talked to about you know,

657
00:33:25,866 --> 00:33:27,506
Speaker 5: his view on on on the team.

658
00:33:28,146 --> 00:33:31,466
Speaker 3: I mean he's all in killing the scene and getting

659
00:33:31,506 --> 00:33:35,906
Speaker 3: the attention, getting the buzz, and himself being legitimized by

660
00:33:36,026 --> 00:33:36,746
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers.

661
00:33:36,866 --> 00:33:39,666
Speaker 5: That's what that was about. I mean, I could go

662
00:33:39,786 --> 00:33:41,146
Speaker 5: back to whether trade was made.

663
00:33:41,186 --> 00:33:44,146
Speaker 3: They didn't have to swap the picks in the first round,

664
00:33:44,266 --> 00:33:47,906
Speaker 3: the fifteenth for the sixteen, none of that. But Zach

665
00:33:47,986 --> 00:33:51,386
Speaker 3: wilson game plan doesn't fly that the year will be

666
00:33:51,466 --> 00:33:53,586
Speaker 3: out of the appalloon by the end of the first

667
00:33:53,626 --> 00:33:54,466
Speaker 3: step in Dallas.

668
00:33:54,546 --> 00:33:56,826
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go to the Dallas game. I'm gonna super

669
00:33:56,946 --> 00:33:57,626
Speaker 5: Cherry Joe.

670
00:33:57,626 --> 00:33:59,866
Speaker 1: You go, You're going to dallass I am.

671
00:34:00,266 --> 00:34:03,186
Speaker 5: I'm ruining this team on It's.

672
00:34:03,066 --> 00:34:05,666
Speaker 1: A shot, no snap, it's a shot.

673
00:34:06,026 --> 00:34:06,226
Speaker 5: Big.

674
00:34:08,826 --> 00:34:13,746
Speaker 1: You're gonna sit with Jerry and say what go Jacks.

675
00:34:12,946 --> 00:34:15,626
Speaker 5: For the chats. It doesn't matter. I sait with Steve

676
00:34:15,746 --> 00:34:18,986
Speaker 5: Ross in Miami and news for the chats. It's okay.

677
00:34:19,706 --> 00:34:23,986
Speaker 3: So you know he respects it, he respects me. He's loyal,

678
00:34:24,106 --> 00:34:26,266
Speaker 3: He's a loyal Maybe no, it's un loyal to the Jets.

679
00:34:26,546 --> 00:34:28,466
Speaker 3: I will tell you by the end of the first half,

680
00:34:29,506 --> 00:34:32,066
Speaker 3: you'll see what exact that's.

681
00:34:32,986 --> 00:34:34,106
Speaker 5: I mean, if you could.

682
00:34:33,986 --> 00:34:37,426
Speaker 3: Train him to manage a game, to really manage a

683
00:34:37,546 --> 00:34:39,986
Speaker 3: game with his brain and just make a couple of

684
00:34:40,226 --> 00:34:45,106
Speaker 3: quick passes, but he is not capable of the Yeah,

685
00:34:45,786 --> 00:34:48,186
Speaker 3: stack ten guys in the box and stop. You saw

686
00:34:48,266 --> 00:34:51,746
Speaker 3: what a super talent he is. I mean, you love

687
00:34:51,866 --> 00:34:52,906
Speaker 3: cook super.

688
00:34:52,746 --> 00:34:57,506
Speaker 5: Talent all in big part you Garrett. Garrett is maybe

689
00:34:57,586 --> 00:34:59,906
Speaker 5: the premiree wide receive, the number one. He's a true

690
00:34:59,946 --> 00:35:00,386
Speaker 5: number one.

691
00:35:00,506 --> 00:35:03,426
Speaker 1: He's a blizard made a couple of big players. They

692
00:35:03,466 --> 00:35:04,146
Speaker 1: have all the skills.

693
00:35:04,306 --> 00:35:06,306
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I'm not complaining about the wide receivers.

694
00:35:06,506 --> 00:35:08,786
Speaker 3: Done about you know, Dwayne Brown hasn't had a staff

695
00:35:08,826 --> 00:35:12,946
Speaker 3: in preseason and practice something and the biggest side of

696
00:35:13,026 --> 00:35:15,666
Speaker 3: the history of Jets about an issue the Jets. That's

697
00:35:15,706 --> 00:35:18,466
Speaker 3: your left tackle, that's your blind site, the left tackle

698
00:35:18,506 --> 00:35:20,986
Speaker 3: blind side position in one of the top five positions

699
00:35:21,026 --> 00:35:23,066
Speaker 3: in the NFL. You're going a thirty eight to thirty

700
00:35:23,146 --> 00:35:26,146
Speaker 3: nine year old guy come roughly labroom surgery that hasn't

701
00:35:26,146 --> 00:35:28,346
Speaker 3: had a staff. So the other thing you do is

702
00:35:28,426 --> 00:35:31,346
Speaker 3: go down try to do a you know, a tick block,

703
00:35:31,506 --> 00:35:33,666
Speaker 3: you know, and that's what happened. We went down, the

704
00:35:33,746 --> 00:35:37,666
Speaker 3: guy went over him Camplain. Actually in a way they

705
00:35:37,666 --> 00:35:40,186
Speaker 3: should have ran the first three, four, five place, you know,

706
00:35:40,986 --> 00:35:42,026
Speaker 3: just get to go there to go.

707
00:35:42,226 --> 00:35:43,906
Speaker 5: But I'm not going to play pack it, you.

708
00:35:43,946 --> 00:35:48,026
Speaker 1: Know, last one, last one, because you and I are gonna.

709
00:35:47,866 --> 00:35:49,346
Speaker 5: Last from this deva ends.

710
00:35:49,586 --> 00:35:52,586
Speaker 1: This is for the rest of our last one, last

711
00:35:53,106 --> 00:35:57,186
Speaker 1: last one. Do you regret doing Rogers over Car now

712
00:35:57,226 --> 00:35:59,466
Speaker 1: that we look back on it all these months later.

713
00:35:59,506 --> 00:36:02,746
Speaker 5: Absolutely no, absolutely no. No.

714
00:36:03,226 --> 00:36:06,266
Speaker 3: Rogers did something matchical for this team, and it's got

715
00:36:06,306 --> 00:36:09,106
Speaker 3: to go. It's gonna last for a while. How we

716
00:36:09,466 --> 00:36:11,906
Speaker 3: take advantage of that, that's what's going to set us apart.

717
00:36:12,386 --> 00:36:15,186
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you, be the best, David, appreciate you.

718
00:36:15,746 --> 00:36:16,266
Speaker 2: So there you go.

719
00:36:16,506 --> 00:36:21,986
Speaker 1: Eron two different diehard Jet fans giving two very similar perspective.

720
00:36:22,066 --> 00:36:24,506
Speaker 1: David the latter one didn't seem as woe as me

721
00:36:24,706 --> 00:36:27,506
Speaker 1: and was more angry about the offensive line play and

722
00:36:27,666 --> 00:36:29,786
Speaker 1: what the general manager has done to prepare this team

723
00:36:29,826 --> 00:36:33,146
Speaker 1: at quarterback, and Hank just sound like, you know, that's

724
00:36:33,186 --> 00:36:35,266
Speaker 1: just doom and gloom. What got me is when Hank's

725
00:36:35,266 --> 00:36:39,226
Speaker 1: area says that he carries over that Nicks Jets Mets

726
00:36:39,426 --> 00:36:42,626
Speaker 1: fandom of always being the sad sack loser to like

727
00:36:42,746 --> 00:36:45,226
Speaker 1: his Hollywood career, where the second you pitch a project

728
00:36:45,266 --> 00:36:48,506
Speaker 1: and there's pushback, you just immediately shut things down. It

729
00:36:48,626 --> 00:36:51,066
Speaker 1: does become an ethos after a while. And I said

730
00:36:51,106 --> 00:36:53,506
Speaker 1: it on Good Morning Football. At some point, Jets fans

731
00:36:53,546 --> 00:36:55,586
Speaker 1: look in the mirror and just say, why can't I

732
00:36:55,666 --> 00:36:57,786
Speaker 1: have nice things? Why me? That?

733
00:36:58,306 --> 00:37:00,626
Speaker 4: Like rung really true when you were saying, you know,

734
00:37:00,666 --> 00:37:03,426
Speaker 4: you had multiple friends who texted you we just can't

735
00:37:03,466 --> 00:37:05,866
Speaker 4: have nice things, which is the kind of mandra you

736
00:37:05,946 --> 00:37:08,866
Speaker 4: have after years and years of feeling beaten down by

737
00:37:08,946 --> 00:37:11,786
Speaker 4: something and then getting excited about it and then just

738
00:37:12,306 --> 00:37:15,666
Speaker 4: the bottom falling out entirely. So that hurt to hear that,

739
00:37:15,986 --> 00:37:17,306
Speaker 4: and it hurt to hear that you were getting that

740
00:37:17,386 --> 00:37:18,506
Speaker 4: from multiple people.

741
00:37:18,866 --> 00:37:20,946
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, so it's Tuesday morning. We're gonna get

742
00:37:20,946 --> 00:37:22,946
Speaker 1: this up as quick as possible. So it's an instant reaction.

743
00:37:23,186 --> 00:37:25,706
Speaker 1: But I threw out there to David about Brady. I

744
00:37:25,746 --> 00:37:28,306
Speaker 1: don't know if that's realistic, but like, if you're looking

745
00:37:28,386 --> 00:37:30,786
Speaker 1: for inside stuff, of course I was texting with all

746
00:37:30,786 --> 00:37:33,386
Speaker 1: the Jets coaches. Of course, I was texting with executives

747
00:37:33,426 --> 00:37:36,746
Speaker 1: in the front office. My thing to you is this morning,

748
00:37:37,186 --> 00:37:40,946
Speaker 1: in the immediate reaction, devastation. They won the game. They

749
00:37:40,986 --> 00:37:43,866
Speaker 1: love it. Devastation. I spoke to a coach who said,

750
00:37:43,866 --> 00:37:46,906
Speaker 1: he hasn't slept and it's already ten am and they

751
00:37:46,946 --> 00:37:49,946
Speaker 1: got home at midnight one am. Hasn't slept, can't sleep.

752
00:37:50,026 --> 00:37:56,346
Speaker 1: Why excitement nerves, just gutted. Why gutted four Rogers, gutted

753
00:37:56,386 --> 00:37:58,626
Speaker 1: four Rogers. How much Aaron has poured into this team

754
00:37:58,666 --> 00:38:00,706
Speaker 1: this summer, and how much he gave the money back

755
00:38:00,746 --> 00:38:05,026
Speaker 1: and he's all in and he gosh, it's everything. I

756
00:38:06,546 --> 00:38:10,226
Speaker 1: feel so bad for so many people, the fans, the

757
00:38:10,386 --> 00:38:13,946
Speaker 1: organization that threw their weight behind Rogers, for Aaron and

758
00:38:14,026 --> 00:38:18,386
Speaker 1: his team, and for the NFL. It sucks. The Jets

759
00:38:18,426 --> 00:38:20,106
Speaker 1: being a good team and the Jets being interesting was

760
00:38:20,146 --> 00:38:23,346
Speaker 1: really fun, and maybe they are, but this does feel

761
00:38:23,386 --> 00:38:24,866
Speaker 1: like a day of morning. Do I think they go

762
00:38:24,986 --> 00:38:26,546
Speaker 1: and sign Matt Ryan.

763
00:38:26,826 --> 00:38:26,866
Speaker 4: No?

764
00:38:27,266 --> 00:38:28,906
Speaker 1: Do I think they signed Carson Wentz.

765
00:38:29,226 --> 00:38:29,266
Speaker 5: No.

766
00:38:29,466 --> 00:38:31,586
Speaker 1: I think Zach Wilson's the guy right now, and we

767
00:38:31,666 --> 00:38:34,386
Speaker 1: can cross those bridges if it is clear and obvious

768
00:38:34,426 --> 00:38:35,946
Speaker 1: that he isn't do they maybe have to sign someone

769
00:38:35,986 --> 00:38:38,626
Speaker 1: else called Tim Boyles on the practice squad, probably elevate

770
00:38:38,666 --> 00:38:41,706
Speaker 1: Tim Boyle. Other immediate things is that they have a

771
00:38:41,786 --> 00:38:43,506
Speaker 1: game in six days, like they got to go play

772
00:38:43,586 --> 00:38:45,506
Speaker 1: the Cowboys who just want forty to nothing and have

773
00:38:45,586 --> 00:38:47,146
Speaker 1: the best defense in the league. So they have to

774
00:38:47,146 --> 00:38:49,386
Speaker 1: start preparing. The NFL's cruel like that. You're going to

775
00:38:49,466 --> 00:38:53,146
Speaker 1: turn the page. Originally, when we were planning this during

776
00:38:53,186 --> 00:38:56,266
Speaker 1: the week yesterday, I had a different guest schedule. I

777
00:38:56,346 --> 00:38:58,426
Speaker 1: had about ten points from week one on one to

778
00:38:58,506 --> 00:39:02,426
Speaker 1: go through. They're all second there, They're all way in

779
00:39:02,466 --> 00:39:04,986
Speaker 1: the back burner. Today was a Jets episode. If we

780
00:39:05,066 --> 00:39:08,946
Speaker 1: were on WFN, spend ten hours doing it. Fortunately we

781
00:39:09,026 --> 00:39:12,786
Speaker 1: were recording the podcast here. But I do want to

782
00:39:12,826 --> 00:39:14,946
Speaker 1: give a story or two for my weekend? Is that okay?

783
00:39:15,066 --> 00:39:15,226
Speaker 3: Erin?

784
00:39:15,346 --> 00:39:17,906
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, I let's hear something. I don't know

785
00:39:17,946 --> 00:39:20,626
Speaker 4: what the story is, but hopefully something uplifting and a

786
00:39:20,706 --> 00:39:22,346
Speaker 4: little brighter than what the past.

787
00:39:23,026 --> 00:39:25,146
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pat you some pictures. I'm gonna paint you

788
00:39:25,226 --> 00:39:30,026
Speaker 1: some pictures. So I work for Fox Sports on the weekend.

789
00:39:30,106 --> 00:39:33,386
Speaker 1: I'm blessed to do. It's it's one of the coolest

790
00:39:33,946 --> 00:39:36,186
Speaker 1: gigs a guy can have in our world because I

791
00:39:36,346 --> 00:39:39,546
Speaker 1: fly in and I'm with sports media and ex player

792
00:39:39,706 --> 00:39:43,746
Speaker 1: luminaries for about two hours every Sunday. Then I fly back,

793
00:39:44,466 --> 00:39:47,626
Speaker 1: but on week one, I fly in on a Friday

794
00:39:47,746 --> 00:39:51,586
Speaker 1: every year because the Fox executives, led by Eric Shanks

795
00:39:51,626 --> 00:39:54,586
Speaker 1: and Bill Richards and Jacob Ollman and Brad Zeiger, these

796
00:39:54,626 --> 00:39:59,946
Speaker 1: guys put together a beautiful Friday night dinner for anyone

797
00:40:00,306 --> 00:40:03,426
Speaker 1: who works on the Sunday pregame shows. And we have

798
00:40:03,506 --> 00:40:05,466
Speaker 1: two of them. We got the Fox NFL Kickoff show

799
00:40:05,506 --> 00:40:08,786
Speaker 1: that starts at eleven AM. I'm Eastern, and it features myself,

800
00:40:09,466 --> 00:40:12,826
Speaker 1: Carissa Thompson, Charles Woodson, Michael Vick, and now our new

801
00:40:12,986 --> 00:40:16,466
Speaker 1: edition Julian Edelman. And then Rob Gronkowski comes in and

802
00:40:16,506 --> 00:40:18,066
Speaker 1: he's gonna be doing a bunch of appearances with us too.

803
00:40:18,106 --> 00:40:20,986
Speaker 1: Now on the other show, it's almost like chair for chair.

804
00:40:21,066 --> 00:40:25,306
Speaker 1: You got kurm Nafie, Michael Strahan, Jimmy Johnson, Howie Long,

805
00:40:25,986 --> 00:40:29,106
Speaker 1: and Jay Glazer, who kind of does the insider stuff

806
00:40:29,786 --> 00:40:31,386
Speaker 1: on that show. So I got all those people, got

807
00:40:31,386 --> 00:40:33,626
Speaker 1: all the producers, you got all the executives, and they

808
00:40:33,746 --> 00:40:37,146
Speaker 1: rent out some awesome LA restaurant. Last year we went

809
00:40:37,186 --> 00:40:40,546
Speaker 1: to Spago, which is like the original La Cool restaurant,

810
00:40:40,546 --> 00:40:42,906
Speaker 1: and I got to meet Wolfgang Paul, who came out

811
00:40:42,946 --> 00:40:45,106
Speaker 1: of the kitchen probably to want to go meet Michael Strahan,

812
00:40:45,186 --> 00:40:46,866
Speaker 1: but I just ran right in front and I just

813
00:40:46,986 --> 00:40:49,066
Speaker 1: like intercepted him and to talk to him. So this

814
00:40:49,226 --> 00:40:56,066
Speaker 1: is all very glamorous, free steak, free dinners treated like gold.

815
00:40:56,146 --> 00:40:58,346
Speaker 1: Probably a car that picks me up, whether it be

816
00:40:58,386 --> 00:41:00,426
Speaker 1: an uber or a car service, to drive me ten

817
00:41:00,466 --> 00:41:02,826
Speaker 1: minutes to wherever we got to go. Like Fox treats

818
00:41:02,906 --> 00:41:09,066
Speaker 1: talent really well. Fox cannot control the airline industry. So

819
00:41:09,386 --> 00:41:12,866
Speaker 1: I finished my show Good Morning Football, and we had

820
00:41:12,906 --> 00:41:15,546
Speaker 1: a great one. After the Lions upset the Chiefs at

821
00:41:15,626 --> 00:41:17,946
Speaker 1: ten am, I immediately run to a car that's going

822
00:41:18,026 --> 00:41:21,186
Speaker 1: to drive me to the airport where I had a

823
00:41:21,346 --> 00:41:24,946
Speaker 1: noon flight on a certain airline that was going to

824
00:41:25,026 --> 00:41:30,546
Speaker 1: fly and get me to LA at three pm Pacific time.

825
00:41:30,746 --> 00:41:33,386
Speaker 1: Dinner's not till six. I'd have time to go check

826
00:41:33,426 --> 00:41:37,226
Speaker 1: into a hotel. Typically I would, I would maybe you know,

827
00:41:37,386 --> 00:41:41,906
Speaker 1: freshen up, maybe get a workout in probably not maybe

828
00:41:42,026 --> 00:41:45,586
Speaker 1: instead of getting that workout, ordering room service and eating

829
00:41:45,626 --> 00:41:49,866
Speaker 1: a meal before the meal. That's my typical routine. Well,

830
00:41:50,026 --> 00:41:52,666
Speaker 1: I get to the airport and I go to that.

831
00:41:53,346 --> 00:41:55,546
Speaker 1: Let's just say I don't want to give any tips

832
00:41:55,586 --> 00:41:58,786
Speaker 1: away and complain about an airline a gathering space for

833
00:41:59,026 --> 00:42:02,626
Speaker 1: those who travel often on the airline, and it is

834
00:42:02,666 --> 00:42:06,866
Speaker 1: a pig sty. Everyone's fighting over like one cheese play

835
00:42:06,986 --> 00:42:09,546
Speaker 1: in like a potential cup of humus. It's vile. I

836
00:42:09,666 --> 00:42:12,546
Speaker 1: literally do the Simpsons meme that I referenced with Hank,

837
00:42:12,586 --> 00:42:15,346
Speaker 1: where like I walk in, put my hat on the rack,

838
00:42:15,586 --> 00:42:17,826
Speaker 1: get my hat, walk right out. It was disgusting. So

839
00:42:17,906 --> 00:42:20,826
Speaker 1: I sit at the gate. I haven't eaten. I've been

840
00:42:20,906 --> 00:42:22,866
Speaker 1: up since four in the morning for Good Morning Football,

841
00:42:22,866 --> 00:42:25,426
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'll eat on the flight. We'll be okay.

842
00:42:26,346 --> 00:42:28,786
Speaker 1: Flight's delayed one hour. I'm like, all right, no big deal.

843
00:42:28,826 --> 00:42:33,266
Speaker 1: I've dealt with this before. Flight's delayed two hours. All right, okay,

844
00:42:33,506 --> 00:42:35,666
Speaker 1: just hang in there. I'm texting. I'm getting my notes

845
00:42:35,706 --> 00:42:39,586
Speaker 1: ready for Sunday's pregame show. Finally they bored us. I

846
00:42:39,666 --> 00:42:43,106
Speaker 1: feel great, Feel great, Get seated. I got a nice

847
00:42:43,106 --> 00:42:45,706
Speaker 1: little window seat. There's another seat next to me. It's

848
00:42:45,746 --> 00:42:48,786
Speaker 1: open till the very last second, I'm like, okay, we're good.

849
00:42:49,026 --> 00:42:50,506
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, they're like, all right, we're wrapping up.

850
00:42:50,546 --> 00:42:53,266
Speaker 1: More like I have two seats to myself. A guy

851
00:42:53,346 --> 00:42:54,066
Speaker 1: comes walking on.

852
00:42:55,066 --> 00:42:55,706
Speaker 5: I know the guy.

853
00:42:57,866 --> 00:43:02,746
Speaker 1: This is my senior big brother from my fraternity in college.

854
00:43:03,466 --> 00:43:06,226
Speaker 1: Comes walking down the aisle and sits right next to me.

855
00:43:06,466 --> 00:43:09,266
Speaker 1: It just so happens that this guy is a gentleman

856
00:43:09,306 --> 00:43:11,386
Speaker 1: named Michael Dubin. Do you know that name? Do either

857
00:43:11,426 --> 00:43:13,186
Speaker 1: and of you guys know this name Michael Dubin? No,

858
00:43:13,706 --> 00:43:18,466
Speaker 1: Michael Dubin was my favorite senior. When I was a

859
00:43:18,506 --> 00:43:22,146
Speaker 1: freshman in college. I was in a fraternity. He was

860
00:43:22,186 --> 00:43:25,066
Speaker 1: one of the seniors. Some of the seniors were huge assholes.

861
00:43:25,306 --> 00:43:27,866
Speaker 1: Michael Dubin was amazing. Would take care of us. So

862
00:43:28,026 --> 00:43:29,546
Speaker 1: be the guy that would say, hey, this isn't a

863
00:43:29,586 --> 00:43:30,626
Speaker 1: great moment in your life.

864
00:43:30,666 --> 00:43:31,026
Speaker 3: I know that.

865
00:43:31,226 --> 00:43:32,546
Speaker 1: Why don't you come to my room and have a

866
00:43:32,666 --> 00:43:35,106
Speaker 1: soda and relax and chill out while the rest of

867
00:43:35,186 --> 00:43:37,666
Speaker 1: your friends are not enjoying being up at three in

868
00:43:37,706 --> 00:43:40,186
Speaker 1: the morning doing positive things. I'm sure, I mean, it's

869
00:43:40,226 --> 00:43:42,146
Speaker 1: all we're doing philanthropy. That's what we did in the

870
00:43:42,186 --> 00:43:45,986
Speaker 1: fraternity as a freshman. Yes, it's all about philanthropy, and

871
00:43:46,026 --> 00:43:49,066
Speaker 1: we were probably putting together some sort of wonderful community

872
00:43:49,106 --> 00:43:53,706
Speaker 1: service event or planting a tree for somebody. Duban walks

873
00:43:53,746 --> 00:43:56,546
Speaker 1: on and now Dubin since we were in college, and

874
00:43:56,706 --> 00:43:58,626
Speaker 1: you can google him and everything, and it's not like

875
00:43:58,706 --> 00:44:01,306
Speaker 1: I've seen any of this. This you know from him

876
00:44:01,346 --> 00:44:03,386
Speaker 1: in a personal level because we haven't talked much in

877
00:44:03,426 --> 00:44:07,786
Speaker 1: the last twenty years. He was struggling in his twenties

878
00:44:07,826 --> 00:44:09,586
Speaker 1: and like marketing and like trying to be an actor.

879
00:44:09,666 --> 00:44:11,866
Speaker 1: At one point, and he'll tell it, Candon Lee was

880
00:44:11,866 --> 00:44:16,106
Speaker 1: working in advertising, was having some success and came across

881
00:44:16,146 --> 00:44:19,546
Speaker 1: an idea and had this concept in about two thousand

882
00:44:19,546 --> 00:44:23,026
Speaker 1: and seven where he launched a YouTube video for a

883
00:44:23,106 --> 00:44:27,186
Speaker 1: company called Dollar Shave Club. If you haven't heard a

884
00:44:27,266 --> 00:44:31,266
Speaker 1: Dollar Shave Club, it was razors that were sent directly

885
00:44:31,346 --> 00:44:34,586
Speaker 1: to your home. It was you skip the middleman, you

886
00:44:34,746 --> 00:44:38,106
Speaker 1: go right to the consumer. And he was selling razors

887
00:44:38,146 --> 00:44:41,666
Speaker 1: for one dollar and it was as legitimate as it sounds.

888
00:44:42,146 --> 00:44:45,426
Speaker 1: But the story goes he inherited some incredible warehouse of

889
00:44:45,546 --> 00:44:48,266
Speaker 1: razors and was a creative mastermind because he's a genius,

890
00:44:48,626 --> 00:44:51,466
Speaker 1: put together a hilarious YouTube video which I don't know

891
00:44:51,506 --> 00:44:53,666
Speaker 1: if you remember Hit the Tennis Racket, Walker through the Warehouse,

892
00:44:54,026 --> 00:44:58,146
Speaker 1: Go google Dollar Shave Club YouTube video. Essentially, Michael Duban

893
00:44:58,226 --> 00:45:01,346
Speaker 1: creates Dollar Shave Club. It's one of the most successful

894
00:45:02,266 --> 00:45:09,106
Speaker 1: first entrepreneurial, grassroots disrupt the mainstream companies in business. That

895
00:45:09,346 --> 00:45:12,466
Speaker 1: was in like two thousand and seven. In twenty seventeen,

896
00:45:12,506 --> 00:45:15,506
Speaker 1: after they've already expanded from just razors to doing shampoo

897
00:45:15,626 --> 00:45:18,906
Speaker 1: and doing conditioner into colognes I don't think he'd be

898
00:45:18,986 --> 00:45:21,226
Speaker 1: upset with me saying this. Dubin sells the company to

899
00:45:21,386 --> 00:45:24,826
Speaker 1: Unilever for a billion dollars, all right, so he's now

900
00:45:25,066 --> 00:45:27,906
Speaker 1: a multi millionaire whatever, and then he goes on he's

901
00:45:27,906 --> 00:45:30,906
Speaker 1: on boards of companies whatever. So imagine me. I'm sitting

902
00:45:30,946 --> 00:45:32,786
Speaker 1: here and Duban walks out of all the people that

903
00:45:32,826 --> 00:45:36,146
Speaker 1: you could sit with, he sits down. We immediately embrace.

904
00:45:36,386 --> 00:45:39,506
Speaker 1: We're having a hilarious conversation. He's the fun one of

905
00:45:39,506 --> 00:45:41,546
Speaker 1: the funniest guys ever. If you watch the YouTube stuff

906
00:45:41,546 --> 00:45:44,906
Speaker 1: that he does, it's authentic. It's him. He's amazing. But

907
00:45:45,066 --> 00:45:47,066
Speaker 1: sure enough, it's not like we're talking while the flight's

908
00:45:47,106 --> 00:45:49,946
Speaker 1: going off. We're sitting on the runway, to late another hour,

909
00:45:50,506 --> 00:45:52,666
Speaker 1: to late another hour. Now it's two hours. We've caught up.

910
00:45:52,666 --> 00:45:54,026
Speaker 1: We're good. We're both doing our own thing on our

911
00:45:54,066 --> 00:45:57,746
Speaker 1: phones like whatever. Pilot gets on now. Remember the flight

912
00:45:57,786 --> 00:45:59,986
Speaker 1: was supposed to take off at twelve. It's four o'clock Eastern.

913
00:46:01,146 --> 00:46:05,946
Speaker 1: Four hour delay. Gets on. Pilot says, folks, good news

914
00:46:06,026 --> 00:46:10,066
Speaker 1: and bad news. The weather that was seemingly affecting this

915
00:46:10,346 --> 00:46:15,106
Speaker 1: flight has passed and we're about eleventh in order to

916
00:46:15,146 --> 00:46:18,506
Speaker 1: get out of here. But due to FAA regulations at

917
00:46:18,626 --> 00:46:21,786
Speaker 1: nine hours, our entire crew has to clock out. We're

918
00:46:21,826 --> 00:46:25,706
Speaker 1: at eight hours in forty eight minutes. You can't make

919
00:46:25,746 --> 00:46:27,746
Speaker 1: this stuff up. So Dubin looks at me because he's

920
00:46:27,786 --> 00:46:30,426
Speaker 1: hilarious and is like, I'm sure he's really gunning it

921
00:46:30,506 --> 00:46:33,146
Speaker 1: to get us off the runway. The alternatives. He's a

922
00:46:33,186 --> 00:46:37,066
Speaker 1: Friday off in New York and we're not sure enough.

923
00:46:37,826 --> 00:46:40,186
Speaker 1: Fock fifty D plane a new Cruisy to come on.

924
00:46:40,666 --> 00:46:43,906
Speaker 1: Don't worry though, this usually takes pretty easy. We get off.

925
00:46:44,186 --> 00:46:47,026
Speaker 1: I'm dejected. I'm missing this dinner. I know that, but

926
00:46:47,146 --> 00:46:49,506
Speaker 1: I know I also have to be in La first

927
00:46:49,546 --> 00:46:51,746
Speaker 1: thing in the morning because we have a big production meeting.

928
00:46:51,866 --> 00:46:54,346
Speaker 1: Edelman's new we're doing a walk through, and like, I

929
00:46:54,386 --> 00:46:57,826
Speaker 1: can't miss that. We get off. I see my Delta

930
00:46:57,866 --> 00:47:00,826
Speaker 1: app it says boarding in about twenty minutes your flight.

931
00:47:01,426 --> 00:47:03,786
Speaker 1: I look at Dubin. He says to me, well, they'd

932
00:47:03,826 --> 00:47:06,386
Speaker 1: have to get all of the bags from that place,

933
00:47:07,186 --> 00:47:09,746
Speaker 1: put them on a different plane. There's no way they're

934
00:47:09,786 --> 00:47:12,186
Speaker 1: doing that in the next twenty minutes. There's no way.

935
00:47:12,346 --> 00:47:15,826
Speaker 1: And I look around JFK Airport. It's mass hysteria, as

936
00:47:15,866 --> 00:47:18,746
Speaker 1: it always is. But it's Friday week after labored and

937
00:47:19,386 --> 00:47:21,866
Speaker 1: sure enough, the next update on our app, your flight

938
00:47:22,026 --> 00:47:26,906
Speaker 1: is taking off at ten pm Eastern. Oh my god.

939
00:47:29,586 --> 00:47:31,826
Speaker 1: So now it's like, what do you do? So now

943
00:47:43,706 --> 00:47:43,746
Speaker 5: So?

944
00:47:44,026 --> 00:47:46,986
Speaker 1: What's the alcarez? This is Friday night. I'm like, I can't.

945
00:47:47,066 --> 00:47:49,386
Speaker 1: I got a family, I've got bags, I've got like.

00:47:49,826 --> 00:47:51,866
Speaker 1: He's like, I've got bags, I've got I'm in the

00:47:52,026 --> 00:47:53,866
Speaker 1: Like I gotta get back to LA. He's like, this

948
00:47:53,986 --> 00:47:56,826
Speaker 1: flight's not taken off till ten Why don't we go?

949
00:47:58,186 --> 00:47:59,906
Speaker 1: And this is why, Like you have like certain people

950
00:47:59,946 --> 00:48:01,986
Speaker 1: who are doers and alphas, and then there's me who

951
00:48:02,066 --> 00:48:04,306
Speaker 1: like waits for things to happen. This is an unbelievable

952
00:48:04,386 --> 00:48:06,786
Speaker 1: story of like entrepreneurial spirit. He's like, why don't we

953

00:48:08,906 --> 00:48:11,866
Speaker 1: to this tennis match? Hang out there for a few hours.

955
00:48:11,906 --> 00:48:13,666
Speaker 1: It's quicker than going all the way back to Brooklyn

956
00:48:13,786 --> 00:48:15,826
Speaker 1: or Manhattan. We'll watch some tennis and we'll go back.

Speaker 1: back to the airport. I'm not sitting in the airport

967
00:48:36,466 --> 00:48:40,146
Speaker 1: for six hours. Aaron, this really happened have you seen

968
00:48:40,226 --> 00:48:42,586
Speaker 1: the Paris Hotel on the side of the road on

969
00:48:42,626 --> 00:48:44,786
Speaker 1: the Bqui ever on the way to Laguardier or airport.

970
00:48:44,906 --> 00:48:47,786
Speaker 1: I think it's called the Paris Hotel. It's like a

971
00:48:48,066 --> 00:48:51,826
Speaker 1: stucco building and it's every all the romance and beauty

972
00:48:51,866 --> 00:48:54,346
Speaker 1: of Paris. Imagine the opposite of that. It's off the

973
00:48:54,426 --> 00:48:57,146
Speaker 1: Bqui and like, I'm not talking a story of queens

974
00:48:57,226 --> 00:48:59,026
Speaker 1: like we're talking to like, get right off the Bqui

975
00:48:59,786 --> 00:49:02,426
Speaker 1: And it's got a giant Eiffel tower that lights up

976
00:49:02,466 --> 00:49:05,186
Speaker 1: fluorescent colors. It almost looks like sleazy in a way,

977
00:49:05,306 --> 00:49:07,906
Speaker 1: like one of those like movies you'd see where you

978
00:49:08,026 --> 00:49:09,306
Speaker 1: know on Savory thing's happen.

979
00:49:09,546 --> 00:49:09,746

00:49:16,466 --> 00:49:18,866
Speaker 1: to the airport. He goes, I'm going to the US Open.

984
00:49:19,746 --> 00:49:22,506
Speaker 1: I am telling you I watched this man buy a

985
00:49:22,586 --> 00:49:25,706
Speaker 1: ticket on his phone with no hookup. No, he's not

986
00:49:25,786 --> 00:49:28,946
Speaker 1: asking for anything. Get dropped off on the side of

987
00:49:28,986 --> 00:49:32,546
Speaker 1: the road at the BQI. Walk by the Paris Hotel.

988
00:49:32,586 --> 00:49:35,226
Speaker 1: I got dropped off at the Paris Hotel, walk to

989
00:49:35,426 --> 00:49:38,426
Speaker 1: Flushing Meadows, which was probably a mile in the pouring rain,

990
00:49:39,426 --> 00:49:41,986
Speaker 1: and I get back in the car within twenty minutes.

991
00:49:41,986 --> 00:49:43,826
Speaker 1: I get a selfie from him and he's smiling in

992
00:49:43,906 --> 00:49:46,706
Speaker 1: front of the match, in front of Medvedev and al Choriz.

993
00:49:49,946 --> 00:49:53,626
Speaker 1: He watches the entire match, and midway through the second set,

994
00:49:53,666 --> 00:49:56,186
Speaker 1: I'm still on the BQI because it's an hour and

995
00:49:56,226 --> 00:49:58,946
Speaker 1: a half. It's you know, Friday traffic. I'm miserable. I'm

996
00:49:58,986 --> 00:50:02,666
Speaker 1: missing this dinner. I'm bombed. I get it updated from

997
00:50:02,746 --> 00:50:06,466
Speaker 1: my airline. Flight's been canceled, so we go home. I

998
00:50:06,466 --> 00:50:09,186
Speaker 1: get on the first flight out. Sure enough, he goes

999
00:50:09,226 --> 00:50:12,026
Speaker 1: to the match. It's an incredible match. He's sending me photos.

1000
00:50:12,066 --> 00:50:15,946
Speaker 1: Obviously Durant's there and show these, Darron's there, and Tom

1001
00:50:16,026 --> 00:50:18,026
Speaker 1: Brady's there, and there he is in the mix, and

1002
00:50:18,106 --> 00:50:20,706
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is unbelievable. Saturday morning, I got on

1003
00:50:20,746 --> 00:50:22,666
Speaker 1: the first flight out, I get out to LA and

1004
00:50:22,746 --> 00:50:25,346
Speaker 1: it's just go, go, go. Hanging out with Gronk, hanging

1005
00:50:25,386 --> 00:50:29,106
Speaker 1: out with Edelman, Charles Woodson's amazing, Chris was great. We

1006
00:50:29,186 --> 00:50:32,466
Speaker 1: have an amazing Saturday morning meeting. I do my usual

1007
00:50:32,506 --> 00:50:37,066
Speaker 1: week one routine, five pm, table for one, dinner for one,

1008
00:50:37,666 --> 00:50:40,626
Speaker 1: just me eat, want to stay on East Coast time,

1009
00:50:41,146 --> 00:50:43,466
Speaker 1: get in bed around six or seven. I sleep like

1010
00:50:43,546 --> 00:50:46,306
Speaker 1: a baby. Have an awesome Sunday show. I'm not sure

1011
00:50:46,346 --> 00:50:48,986
Speaker 1: if you watch Fox NFL kickoff, we kicked ass. We

1012
00:50:49,066 --> 00:50:51,946
Speaker 1: had a great show. Edelman was fantastic. And I've got

1013
00:50:52,026 --> 00:50:56,106
Speaker 1: like a ten thirty flight, ten thirty Pacific. Get to

1014
00:50:56,226 --> 00:51:02,386
Speaker 1: the airport, brother, you wouldn't believe it. Get to the airport,

1015
00:51:02,866 --> 00:51:06,906
Speaker 1: going through security, get the alert. Flight is delayed till

1016
00:51:07,026 --> 00:51:13,306
Speaker 1: six pm Pacific, nine pm Eastern. Went back to Fox,

1017
00:51:14,026 --> 00:51:18,266
Speaker 1: Go back sitting in the green room watching games. Let's

1018
00:51:18,346 --> 00:51:22,746
Speaker 1: just say I did eventually get home. But if the

1019
00:51:22,946 --> 00:51:26,586
Speaker 1: travel woes of week one, or any example of what's

1020
00:51:26,626 --> 00:51:30,426
Speaker 1: to come, it could be a long season for your boy.

1021
00:51:30,586 --> 00:51:33,226
Speaker 1: P shrikes Aaron your thoughts on that entire story.

1022
00:51:33,946 --> 00:51:37,986
Speaker 4: So I have had a lot of horrible travel experiences.

1023
00:51:38,026 --> 00:51:41,506
Speaker 4: I've had bags getting lost on international flights and showing

1024
00:51:41,586 --> 00:51:45,866
Speaker 4: up in Australia with no luggage. I've had flights where

1025
00:51:45,946 --> 00:51:48,546
Speaker 4: we land and we have a layover and the connection

1026
00:51:49,026 --> 00:51:50,746
Speaker 4: does we miss the connection to them, We're stuck in

1027
00:51:50,786 --> 00:51:54,906
Speaker 4: a city overnight where we're like, it's not our city,

1028
00:51:54,946 --> 00:51:57,666
Speaker 4: it's not people we know kind of thing. And when

1029
00:51:57,706 --> 00:52:00,266
Speaker 4: I hear you talk about travel kind of makes me

1030
00:52:00,306 --> 00:52:02,426
Speaker 4: feel like I'm a little luckier than I think every

1031
00:52:02,546 --> 00:52:04,546
Speaker 4: single time, maybe just because you travel so much.

1032
00:52:04,666 --> 00:52:07,106
Speaker 1: But I have to give this side of Now, there

1033
00:52:07,146 --> 00:52:08,906
Speaker 1: are ninety nine percent of people who say, you have

1034
00:52:08,946 --> 00:52:11,266
Speaker 1: the best job in the world and you're flying on

1035
00:52:11,386 --> 00:52:13,506
Speaker 1: someone else's time. Shut up. I don't tweet about it.

1036
00:52:13,706 --> 00:52:16,746
Speaker 1: I don't out the airlines. If we're doing the season,

1037
00:52:16,786 --> 00:52:19,226
Speaker 1: I'm telling the season, the stories, this is what happens.

1038
00:52:19,666 --> 00:52:20,626
Speaker 5: Did you consider?

1039
00:52:21,346 --> 00:52:23,066
Speaker 4: So there have been a few times I've been to

1040
00:52:23,346 --> 00:52:26,906
Speaker 4: JFK or Lagordia where it keeps getting later and later.

1041
00:52:27,026 --> 00:52:28,866
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just forget it.

1042
00:52:29,226 --> 00:52:30,746
Speaker 4: I want to fly out tomorrow morning. I want to

1043
00:52:30,786 --> 00:52:32,386
Speaker 4: go home and sleep in my bed. I don't want

1044
00:52:32,426 --> 00:52:35,026
Speaker 4: to sit in the airport for four hours. It turns

1045
00:52:35,066 --> 00:52:38,586
Speaker 4: into five, it turns into six. Like did you when

1046
00:52:38,666 --> 00:52:40,786
Speaker 4: it I guess when you got off the plane.

1047
00:52:41,226 --> 00:52:44,746
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was done. Now it's done, it's done. Yeah,

1048
00:52:45,306 --> 00:52:47,626
Speaker 1: it's over. And I hear the Friday night dinner was great.

1049
00:52:47,746 --> 00:52:50,866
Speaker 1: Here Edelman and Straighthand and Gronk and all these guys. Yeah,

1050
00:52:50,866 --> 00:52:55,066
Speaker 1: it's great, real quick on that. So I'm in the

1051
00:52:55,066 --> 00:52:56,826
Speaker 1: airport all day Sunday and then I go back to

1052
00:52:56,946 --> 00:53:01,466
Speaker 1: Fox and I'm back at the air The YouTube Sunday

1053
00:53:01,506 --> 00:53:05,106
Speaker 1: ticket freaking awesome. It was great, it worked. I bought

1054
00:53:05,146 --> 00:53:07,466
Speaker 1: it and it was great. So the the saving grace

1055
00:53:07,586 --> 00:53:10,146
Speaker 1: is that, like there was football to watch, I was

1056
00:53:10,186 --> 00:53:15,466
Speaker 1: able to do my work. I got home on Sunday

1057
00:53:15,826 --> 00:53:18,466
Speaker 1: around like two am, three am. I was on Good

1058
00:53:18,506 --> 00:53:22,346
Speaker 1: Morning Football by seven am. I still haven't slept as

1059
00:53:22,386 --> 00:53:23,946
Speaker 1: we do because I had to stay up and watch Rogers.

1060
00:53:24,026 --> 00:53:25,866
Speaker 1: So I'm running on fumes. I know, I just did

1061
00:53:25,906 --> 00:53:28,746
Speaker 1: twenty minutes on travel, but you know, I listened to

1062
00:53:28,826 --> 00:53:31,546
Speaker 1: Ryan Roussillo and he'll do a podcast and have a

1063
00:53:31,586 --> 00:53:33,706
Speaker 1: great guest for forty minutes. Sometimes I skip to life

1064
00:53:33,706 --> 00:53:35,906
Speaker 1: advice at the end. I listened to Simmons and cousin

1065
00:53:36,026 --> 00:53:38,226
Speaker 1: sal They have got great talk about the line. Sometimes

1066
00:53:38,226 --> 00:53:42,546
Speaker 1: I skip right to parent corner. Like, guys, if you're

1067
00:53:42,586 --> 00:53:45,466
Speaker 1: not into the travel woes or my travel stories, I

1068
00:53:45,546 --> 00:53:48,146
Speaker 1: get it. But there are some people who love this stuff.

1069
00:53:48,626 --> 00:53:48,786
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1070
00:53:48,826 --> 00:53:53,466
Speaker 1: Figure as for Michael Dubin, go Google him, and if

1071
00:53:53,506 --> 00:53:56,826
Speaker 1: you ever want to support Dollar Shave Club, he doesn't

1072
00:53:56,866 --> 00:53:58,826
Speaker 1: open it anymore. So go do it or don't do it.

1073
00:53:58,866 --> 00:54:00,826
Speaker 1: I don't care. But one of the great stories. Google

1074
00:54:00,906 --> 00:54:03,506
Speaker 1: him on YouTube, enjoy the comedic. Should we get him
