00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: anybody listening to get scared that will be one of

30
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: those shows that starts doing video stuff and then forgets

31
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: where we came from. We're gonna do our best, Greg,

32
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: and you are the boss. You're look at you. You

33
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: are not confident at all. You're gonna leave behind the

34
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: idea of the podcast because you want to be famous.

35
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: That's all that matters. If they give us the money,

36
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: we'll sell everybody out. That's true. It's not about the

37
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: viewers that Actually you just made a really good point, um,

38
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: And how was your flight? Was everything good coming back? Well?

39
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: You know, I think the worst shape I've ever been

40
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: in on any show we've ever done was two Super

41
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: bowls ago afterwards, where I couldn't speak and I felt

42
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: like a shell of a human being. I'm at of

43
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: that right now. Well, Mark's got the afterglow of having

44
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: a nice one on one conversation with Mike Patton. Just

45
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: seeing the pictures from it, you could see the love

46
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: sort of emanating out of Sessler looking at the Brown.

47
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: It was great to be out there. I mean, it

48
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: was a great trip that you asked about the flight.

49
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: The trip was great, the flight and epic disaster. And

50
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: we'll also I'm sure you'll give us an update. You

Speaker 1: Wall was a top the charts in the US, I

53
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: had to squeeze this in in between that, though, I

54
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: can't wait. Can you bring your medical records out law

55
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,880

59
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: got a lot to get to. Um. You know, I

60
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: got obviously my Twitter if you got blown up yesterday

61
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: after Gino's face, Geno Smith's face got blown up, uh

62
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: knocked out. So we're gonna talk a lot about that,

63
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: what it means for the Jets, what it means for

64
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Gino Smith, Todd Bowles. There's a lot of

65
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: Dan Hansas. What does it mean for Dan Hansens Hoddle

66
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: Layers to that Onion? Uh, you know, I'm not I'm

67
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: not thrilled obviously about any anything that came out of

68
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: yesterday in Floren Park, which is really Mark and I

69
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: say that you have you just reported from an Indian

70
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: burial ground. Florien Park isn't too different. Well, I think

71
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: you noticed. One of the people that didn't tweet you

72
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: was me because I know the feeling of when the

73
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: latest disaster strikes and it's like, let's just kick people

74
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: while they're down. We're not gonna kick Dan when he's down.

75
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: It was not a good day for Hansas. You're a

76
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: good man. We're also going to Hard Knocks, premiered on HBO,

77
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: the tenth season of the show featuring the Houston Texans.

78
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: A very promising season premiere with Bill O'Brien behind the controls.

79
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: A lot of J. J. Watt, which Mark will get

80
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: to a little bit about that. Maybe that wasn't the

81
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: best thing, but a very entertaining start a new season.

82
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that a little bit. Also, we're gonna

83
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: bring back one of our favorite favorite topics, one of

84
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: our favorite segments. Uh. It's called what's your Fancy in

85
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: our language, but we like to mix it up. We

86
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: call it qualas to Fantasia. So a lot to get to.

87
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,559
Speaker 1: But before we do any of that, we check behind

88
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: the Glass week. He is our producer's TD. Um. He's

89
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: always a loyal man to us, and he's gonna take

90
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: us onward and upward on NFL, now, aren't you, buddy?

91
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: I'm with Greg though you know I'm I want to say,

92
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I'm gonna sell out, but you know

93
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: we'll go with the money. Is baby zero zero integrity? Yeah,

94
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: Well back here with the irisherman and the fisherman as usual. Fisherman.

95
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: I love that Sully behind the glass one of uh

96
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: TD's henchmen, I'll call him. Uh. He wears a different

97
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: fishing shirt every day now, it's almost like he's like

98
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: a superhero. Yeah, just open up his close and his

99
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: just fishing shirt. So maybe we could get a picture

100
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: of that put up in the round the leap page.

101
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: Hey TD, let's do some news. All I know is

102
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: yours with me? You got problems, that's all I know

103
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: that was You would think that's J. J. Watt. That

104
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: was actually I k in him Pole. Dan has been

105
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: working on that pronunciation all night. Yes, I mean this

106
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: is this is the big stage here. Geno Smith is

107
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 1: the New York Jets quarterback. He was supposed to be

108
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: the starter for the Jets and this was a big

109
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: redemption season for him, potentially Greg which I now realized

110
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: over on the throne of Ease, this was all a

111
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: massive jinks by the boss. Talked up Geno Smith as

112
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: a making the leap candidate. Well, he might make the leap,

113
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: but it's gonna take some while before he gets on

114
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: the field, before he eats solid foods. Gino, it's been

115
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: knocked out by teammate, a bottom of the roster linebacker

116
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,679
Speaker 1: named I'll say it again, I k in him Pole?

117
00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: Is that righted who punched Geno Smith in the face.

118
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: Sucker punched him. According to Jets coach Todd Bowles, over

119
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: um a debt that was unpaid by Gino of a

120
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: six dollars. Albert Brier and many other people were reported

121
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 1: tying back to a flight and travel expenses that uh

122
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: I k in impole promise or Geno Smith promised him

123
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: that he would go to his uh his charity camp.

124
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: Gino backed out because of a family emergency, said he

125
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: would pay back. The linebacker didn't on time, so I

126
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: K punched him cut immediately. The linebacker I K in

127
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: immediately released Geno Smith broken jaw in two places, needs

128
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 1: surgery out six to ten weeks. Your first reaction, Greg Rosenthal, Well,

129
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: my first reaction was, Jets fans are going to be

130
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: thinking this only happens to the Jets, and in this

131
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 1: case they're right, or I'm thinking that it's true. This

132
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: is the most insane story that we've heard. It's just

133
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: almost unprecedented. There's there's a case of it, a similar

134
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: case happening to the Dallas Cowboys about forty years ago.

135
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: But here's a guy who broke his john is gonna

136
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: miss in six or ten weeks. And my immediate thought

137
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: was more just this feeling of negativity around the Jets

138
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: this preseason, that they haven't even played one game yet

139
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: and Sheldon Richardson suspension is gonna go longer than expected.

140
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: They've lost the Milner for a while, they've lost Evan Smith,

141
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: and now they've lost their starting quarterback. It's you know,

142
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: I Greg, you you are say I'm being dramatic when

143
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: I said nobody really understands what it's like to be

144
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: a Jets fan because it is different than say, being

145
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: a Bengals fan or being a Browns fan, because there

146
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: is that level of humiliation that courses through the organization

147
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: on a very like whether it's the butt fumble or

148
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: something like this. And that's that was my first takeway

149
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: as a Jets fan is I don't think General Smith

150
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: is necessarily that much better or better at all than

151
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: even better at all the over Ryan Fitzpatrick, who I

152
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: think they're kind of the same basic skill level. So

153
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: I don't think the team necessarily gets worse, But I

154
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: do think from a distraction angle and and the media

155
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: attention on the team, it's bad for the team and

156
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: it's just embarrassing. It sucks to be a Jets fan

157
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: because this stuff happens every couple of years. You think

158
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: you're in the clearing, you could be a regular team,

159
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: and you because you're in the clown car. Again. I

160
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: think the Jets are fine, m I really do. I

161
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: think Ryan Fitzpatrick's a better quarterback than Geno Smith. He

162
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: might not have the upside, but I think early season.

163
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: I mean, when's the last time Ryan Fitzpatrick had an

164
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: offense this loaded with weapons. Devin Smith, I'm I'm convinced

165
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: was not headed for an early season huge role. I

166
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: think his role might have increased over this season. But

167
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: I think they're fine. I don't think outside of the

168
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: Sheldon Richardson thing, and they protected themselves by drafting Leonard Williams,

169
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 1: I still think this is an eight and eight, nine

170
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: and seventeen. Here, by the way, speaking of the big

171
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: controversy and the jaw breaker, here's what Todd Bowles had

172
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: to say about the n C. He addressed the team

173
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: right before practice and then after as well, I'll let

174
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: them tell you something very childish that sixth grade is

175
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 1: because it's talked about and they had no reason happening.

176
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: You know, if they want to tell you what happened,

177
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: they can tell you what happened. But I told him

178
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say anything about it, so I'll keep it there.

179
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 1: And then of course one of the by the way,

180
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: the New York media loves this. That's that's why it's

181
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: it does matter even if Gina Smith and Ryan Fitzpatrick

182
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: are the same guy, it's still a lot to navigate

183
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,839
Speaker 1: for a team, and it's definitely matters, right. I'm just

184
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: now I'm looking at Greg's laptop and New York Post

185
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: headline smug smug Gino Smith go did his sucker puncher

186
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: Cole and witnesses. I mean they love this stuff. This

187
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: is And by the way, Connor or a seer on

188
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: the latest or or you're kidding me, mentioned what happened

189
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: to the old school controversies. We have to deal with

190
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: the flake gates up. This is the good stuff. The

191
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: starting quarterback gets knocked out. You're saying Connor conjured this up.

192
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: I'm not ruling it out. By the way, and one

193
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: of these reporters asked Todd Bowls a good question question was, yes,

194
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: I k in m poly bottom of the roster guy.

195
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: What if it was a starter? Would you have cut him?

196
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: Was a star? He would he had been released. I

197
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: don't know. For me, I mean she wearing a liar well.

198
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: I agree with West. I don't think the team, necessarily

199
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: quarterback wise, uh went down a black hole with this injury.

200
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: But if you're Geno Smith, you're that's the loser here,

201
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: because when a coaching staff inherits a quarterback, they often

202
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: want to change the quarterback to start with, and especially

203
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: when it's Geno Smith. And when you take a Geno

204
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: Smith for what he was on the field and you

205
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: throw this into it. I mean Jan Gilly is tied

206
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: to Ryan Fitzpatrick in the past. No one in this

207
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: organization is tied to Gino Smith. How much rope does

208
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: he have at this He doesn't have any real rope

209
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: at all. And you think Gino Smith. This is why

210
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: like Eli Manning compared to Geno Smith is a joke

211
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: because he might not have been responsible for this, but

212
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: he played a part in the relationship crumbling. And you

213
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: have things going back last year, sleeping through the meeting,

214
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: getting into it with fans. I ain't gotta be careful

215
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: though it sounds like there's any It's ridiculous, I think

216
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: for any of us to blame anyone when we don't

217
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 1: know anything about this. I do. I don't know how

218
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: I thought it made myself clear. I'm not saying he

219
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,719
Speaker 1: was responsible for getting punched in the face, but the

220
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: fact that there was an issue between him, it sounds

221
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 1: like he maybe it could have been done handled better.

222
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: And bulls came out pretty strong to call it ridiculous basically,

223
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean he could have come out and been even

224
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: more shielded with what happened. He through the floor. Where

225
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: did bulls go to elementary school when people had six

226
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: dmous six hundred dollars is like a dollar for a

227
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: kindergarten kids. I mean everyone's saying, well, six hundred dollars

228
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: is more to more to that linebacker. He made five

229
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars last year, Like it's not like a

230
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: sub poor guy. So he's a crazy person. He could

231
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: be arrested. He just for that six hundred dollars. He

232
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: might have thrown away millions of dollars. Who knows if

233
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: he's going to get a job again. He just caught.

234
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: You know, Smith could sue him if you want. He's

235
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: not gonna do that, but he could cost you know,

236
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: Smith millions of dollars. You say they don't have anything

237
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,599
Speaker 1: invest in you know Smith. That's fine. Ryan Fitzpatrick was

238
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: getting no reps with the first team. Gino Smith, whether

239
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: it was right or wrong, was their guy. They saw

240
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: more upside in Ryan fitzpat and Gino Smith, and they

241
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: ever saw in Ryan Fitzpatrick. But from this point forward, right, Yeah,

242
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: I agree with that, but for a month, that's a

243
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: big month, this preseason and training camp period in a

244
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: brand new offense for Gino Smith, and he's not gonna

245
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: get that back. And to what we were talking about earlier,

246
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: whether was this Geno Smith's fault in some way, It's

247
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: clear you read between the lines after practice when Nick

248
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: Mangold spoke, when Darrell Reevas spoke, when Todd Bowl spoke,

249
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: that no one is viewing Geno Smith as a choir

250
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 1: boy and all this here's what Darrell Reevas had to

251
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: say about the drama. I hope both arm responsible. Uh

252
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: just how it all played out at the end when

253
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: uh you gather all the information. Um, but at the

254
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: same time, we got to move forward. There's just uh,

255
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: you know, nothing to really uh you know, hard pointed

256
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: no more. The coach, coach Bows did the best he

257
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: could of of trying to handle the situation. And and

258
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: now as a team, we just gotta move forward. I mean,

259
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,719
Speaker 1: your Durrell read us and yeah, you made a ton

260
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: of money to come back to the Jets and it's

261
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: the new Jets and everything's fine. I'm not saying that

262
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: it isn't a different team. But at what point is

263
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: he got to be thinking what did I do right

264
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: back in the five? But he's like, it's all about

265
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: the money. I don't think he's worried about that. But

266
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: but one thing they didn't show another clip. He said,

267
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: this would have never happened with a great organization like

268
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. Lies. That's what he's thinking. By

269
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 1: the way, I'm watching that clip. If you watch on

270
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: NFL now, you'll see this isn't the old Durell Revis.

271
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: That hairline has gone back quite a bit over the years,

272
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So now he's not effective

273
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 1: because he's not on your team anymore. He started going.

274
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: By the way, it's a shot at West number one.

275
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I'm just saying

276
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: it's not the old Durell Revis that he was going.

277
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: I took shots at him when he left for the

278
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: Bucks for his receding hairline and a really bitter lover's lament.

279
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 1: So this has been happening for a while. Who cares

280
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: about that now? Will get his job back? Now, that's

281
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: the other question Todd Bowle said. He said, if they're

282
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: if we're four or five or six and seven or oh,

283
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: which they won't be. No, he's not getting his job back.

284
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: But West, I ask you, do you think you're not

285
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: a big Ryan Fitzpatrick fan, But you're not a big

286
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: Jenero Smith fan either. When Jino gets healthy, let's say

287
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: week four, so is he their quarterback? This is the

288
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,599
Speaker 1: old Bill Parcels saying, if you have two quarterbacks, you

289
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 1: don't have a quarterback. And this is the way it goes.

290
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: When you don't have a quarterback. Whoever is hot stays hot.

291
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: The hot hand gets the job the way Todd Todd

292
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: Bulls phrase, if the ship is going the right way,

293
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: you don't make a move. That's just common sense. That's

294
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: how you do it in football. So if Fitzpatrick and

295
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: I think he's never had surrounding talent this good in

296
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: his career, you've got Brandon Marshall, Eric Decker, Jeremy Curley,

297
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: Jason Morrow, and a couple of decent running how about

298
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: when he was a rookie coming out there in his

299
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: first game, seventh round pick from Harvard, and he's got

300
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: Tory Holt and Isaac Bruce next outside of him, the

301
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: very aged, aging and declining I think you look around

302
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: the league at a couple of teams, the Jets, the Browns,

303
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: the Bills, you're gonna see two or three quarterbacks play.

304
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't be surprised to see Bryce Petty

305
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: play weeks sixteen and seventeen if the thing falls apart,

306
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: I mean, unless Ryan Fitzpatrick and Chan Gilly can recapture

307
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: that brief magic they had in Buffalo. It was not

308
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: a long run. They had a hot streak for a bit.

309
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: That's the only way it stays in the field. Let

310
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: me ask you a question, Mark Jets Brown's Week one

311
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: at the meadow ends. Are you happier that Ryan Fitzpatrick's

312
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: in the mix? No? I I think this is a

313
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: tougher game for Cleveland because Gailey and Fitzpatrick have worked

314
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: well together for a long time. And Gino Smith I

315
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: understand he's making the leap candidate. He's the first one

316
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: we got absolutely wrong. Well, because it's not because he's

317
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: not playing, not that you're wrong about it. First of all,

318
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: it wouldn't shock me if Gina Smith is starting Week

319
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: one and this time to time part of playing quarterback

320
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: is just it's the whole Thing's the whole thing, and

321
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: he's not the whole thing. I would rather play Geno

322
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: Smith because he's gonna throw two terrible passes to give

323
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: the defensive. By the way, Ryan Fitzpatrick is the guy

324
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: that Chan Gailey didn't want to play. And Ryan fitz

325
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: Patrick is not the guy that people are making about

326
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: to be. They're saying, oh, he's this trusty veteran. He

327
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: knows the system. At least you know what you're gonna get.

328
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: Has anyone watched Ryan Fitzpatrick play? He is. He is

329
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: the guy that comes off the bench. It has an

330
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: insane amount of confidence. It doesn't matter what the defense does,

331
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: He's gonna go for it. He is the destitute and

332
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: what's Gal Smith? What's g Smith? He's gonna throw three

333
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: turnovers against Come on, He's gonna kill you. Just as

334
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: much as a similar player to Fitzpatrick in that he's

335
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: very streaky and that he goes for it. But there's

336
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: a lot more talent there and a chance for him

337
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: to really grow. They don't have. But then they have

338
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Philadelphia in Miami at Miami, that's not an easy

339
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: start to the season. I think Fitzpatrick he could look

340
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: great for two weeks and then he could throw five

341
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: interceptions too straight weeks. He will. We know who Ryan

342
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick is. Here's a little quiz. How many quarterbacks since

343
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 1: the nineteen seventy merger have started games for at least

344
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: five teams and don't have a winning record for any

345
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: of them. One. Ryan Fitzpatrick in a terrible starter. He's

346
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: He's a six and ten guy. That's who he is.

347
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: I have a quick message for all the Jets fans

348
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: right now, we will rally around Ryan Fitzpatrick and we

349
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: will play good football for a month. I have a

350
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: message for Mark Sessler. Gino Smith is going to still

351
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: make the leap. He's gonna come back from this. He'll

352
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: be the comeback player of the year. He can go

353
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 1: right after he got his job busted. This guy's a googberg.

354
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: You don't always known it tough. He puts up an

355
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: Instagram picture. Let's put a sandwich on that. He's not

356
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: making that he's making no leap. Wait, how do you

357
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: We'll all we'll all decide that's fair. By the way,

358
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: Mark's got those fired up eyes that you right now. No,

359
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: I just I think it's like enough with the Gino

360
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: Smith hype train, at this point, he's put him in

361
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: the put him in the casket for the next month. Well,

362
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 1: he says, and he's a non factor. Let'll call him

363
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 1: what he is, a non factory locker room disaster. It

364
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: is funny. The New York Daily News columnists, which we

365
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: all like, wrote an entire big all about how Geno

366
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 1: Smith's attitude this year. He's much more mature. He's not

367
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: letting everyone's negativity get to him. He's being a leader.

368
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: Literally the next day he got punched in the job

369
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: for being a jerk apparently, and then literally that that

370
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: night Minissa ro Uh column, he may never play for

371
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: the Jets again. That's how it goes in. The Geno

372
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: coaster has derailed. Alright, moving on, I mean, we'll we'll

373
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: be plenty more Gina to talk about in the future,

374
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 1: but for now, we got to talk about other news.

375
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: And you know, we haven't touched a story a lot

376
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 1: because it's been a lot of you know, hedging back

377
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: and forth, a lot of politics behind the scene. But

378
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, the city that hasn't had a NFL team

379
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: since when the Rams and Raiders both left town. Our

380
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: home we do reside here, so it's been a market

381
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: without the second biggest media market in the country, has

382
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: not had an NFL team that really increasingly looks like

383
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 1: that's about to end soon. Uh, and the Raiders seem

384
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: like a real opportunity, a real chance they're gonna end

385
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: up here. Executive vice President of NFL l Ventures and

386
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: Business Operations, Eric Rubman made a statement regarding the regarding

387
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: the city's City of Oakland's proposal or lack thereof, to

388
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: keep the Raiders at the league matting meetings in Chicago

389
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Here's his quote. The fact that the facts

390
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: on the ground or that there's been no viable proposal

391
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: to the Raiders as of yet, there's no proposal for

392
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: the Raiders to consider, added Reman. If a proposal is

393
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: made at any stage and it's not actionable, it's really

394
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,479
Speaker 1: not something the club could act upon. The Skids are

395
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 1: being greased. Chris Westley, Well, let me give you the

396
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: reader's digestive this whole situation. Uh. You've got Carmen Policy,

397
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: the former forty Niners and Browns president, leading the faction

398
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: for the Chargers and Raiders for a stadium to be

399
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: built in Carson and they would hope to have that

400
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: ready by two thousand nineteen. On the other hand, you've

401
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: got Stand Crunky of the Rams, who has the Inglewood

402
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: project that they want to turn into a whole entertainment

403
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 1: complex someday have the Grammys there, the Pro Bowl, the Draft,

404
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: the Combine. No, seriously, we might be down there that

405
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: they want to put shoveling ground by December for that.

406
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: And you have these two separate factors. Only one of

407
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: these stadiums will be built, so between one of it

408
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 1: basically is the Rams versus the Chargers and the Raiders.

409
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 1: And then you've got um Steve Tish Cohne or the Giants.

410
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 1: This is how far along it's getting. He said yesterday

411
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: he believed there's more than a team will be playing

412
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: next season in l A. And that would happen in

413
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 1: the coliseum. So it's it's coming along pretty quickly. And

414
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: one interesting note on the Rich Eisen Show on Wednesday,

415
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: uh Stam Farmer from The l A Times, was on

416
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: the show. He said that one thing that's making this

417
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: even more complicated and tricky is that Stan Cronky, the

418
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: Rams owner, is the guy that seems uh the most

419
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: determined to leave town and go to l A. But

420
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: it's the city of St. Louis, above all these other

421
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 1: cities that's fighting the hardest to keep their team, So

422
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: it doesn't quite sync up the way it maybe the league,

423
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: and of course Crony would like it too. I think

424
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 1: the league thinks Crunky has the best plan, like you said,

425
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: but they also the owners believe that Dean Spano's the

426
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: Chargers owner, deserves a new stadium more than anywhere else

427
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: because he has exhausted all avenues for years to try this.

428
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: So there are kind of warring factions there. Cronkey and

429
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: we get asked about this on the radio. If you

430
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 1: ever do San Diego, and it's it's always been talked about.

431
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: Done here. Cronkey has the ultimate trump card. He's got

432
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: the money and he's got the land, and he can

433
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: just do it. And he's already done it. He didn't

434
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: ask for permission from the NFL to go buy all

435
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: this land. He just did it. And that's if you

436
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: look at NFL history, that's how things get done. You

437
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: don't wait for the city to come up, you don't

438
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 1: wait for you know, San Diego has been trying to

439
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: do this for a long time. They asked Mark Davis

440
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: about it in Oakland, and they is Oakland even a

441
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: viable Solucy said, I don't know, so. I think the

442
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 1: cities of San Diego and Oakland. It doesn't matter that St.

443
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: Louis is doing the best job of the cities. Because

444
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: the owner, Crank, has got the cash and he wants

445
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: to do it, and he's got teams in you know,

446
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: the Premier League. He can do whatever he wants. Well,

447
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 1: one thing, he's gonna just make put all his chips

448
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: in the middle of the table and he's gonna force

449
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: it on the NFL. You know, they talk at times

450
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: about two teams potentially. And it was Tim Brown at

451
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame he warned against this. He said,

452
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: you know, everyone wants it's money. Everyone wants football back

453
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: in l A. But he remembered his opening game and

454
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: eighty eight when he returned the kickoff into the end zone.

455
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: Starts the game, starts his career that way. And he

456
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: looked up at the coliseum. There's nobody there. He said.

457
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: The stadium holds a hundred thousand people, and there's thirty

458
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: five thousand people here because they're all at the beach.

459
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: You have to worry about that. Now that was l

460
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: A still has that DNA though if you aren't a

461
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 1: winning team, they're not. It's a Lakers town. How many

462
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: are they going to different That was pre fantasy football.

463
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: The NFL has has been multiplied tenfold, a hundredfold since.

464
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: I'm just saying two teams though, yes, but playing in

465
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: a crappy old facility if you have a state of

466
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,959
Speaker 1: the art, and that's why they they've been I think

467
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 1: the NFL has been so precious about this. They know

468
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: if they do it right, it will be successful and

469
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: will be a massive money maker for the league. But

470
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: they gotta get it right. Two teams is crazy to

471
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: me because I think that's all I'm too much have

472
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: a natural fan base, but there's only so many Rams

473
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,919
Speaker 1: fans around. They have to be in their forties and

474
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: fifties to be Rams fans from last time. Same thing

475
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: goes for raiding Chargers is the most logical move, and

476
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: I think, like you said, I think the NFL would

477
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: like that to work out in an easy way because

478
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 1: they're already a Southern California team. Is not that big

479
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: a difference. But I don't think it's gonna happen. Um.

480
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 1: By the way, you mentioned Trump. I am it's out

481
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: there now. I talked about who mentioned Trump? Trump? You

482
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: said Trump. I dropped that you fired, and as you

483
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: guys know, he said Trump, and then I like that something. Now,

484
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: I just want to say that I have told you

485
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: guys privately and have told others that I'm I'm trying

486
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 1: to bring back the winning How's that going to the lexicon?

487
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: It's not working out. But now I realize what I

488
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: really got to bring back is if fired. You're a

489
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: big Trump guy. We know this from hanging out with you.

490
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: I am not a I'm not a Trump guy, and

491
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 1: I don't condone his presidency attempt. Here but politics Podcast,

492
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: Politics the podcast, coming up to the theology show. Um.

494
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,719
Speaker 1: glass whenever, maybe I'll just drop up. You're fired. You're

495
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: getting real tight on another NFL Now exclusive TV shaking

496
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 1: his head. Why how the exact? Trump's great for ratings?

497
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: You know he is. He moves the needle. So I'm

498
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: bringing back You're fired. That's fine, that's your campaign. You

499
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: just gave up one of your biggest campaigns. I'm stumping

500
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: for your fired. All right, let's move on Tuesday night

501
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 1: or yeah, what day is it? Yesterday? That's right? Where

502
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: are we today? Was Wednesday night on HBO, the tenth

503
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: season of Hard Knocks kicked off, starring the Houston Texans

504
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: and uh, you know Around the NFL yours truly the

505
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: old zuser wrote a recap on episode one, and I

506
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,160
Speaker 1: know that uh three of us have watched it. West,

507
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: you will get on the train. I don't need to

508
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: watch it because your recap, I mean each your hart

509
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: out Alan Steppinwall Dan Hansas is recap of Hard Knocks

510
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: is the best recap of any television show on the internet.

511
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: That is very nice. That was the best culture reference

512
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: in West's Around the NFL podcast history. That was It

513
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: was both contemporary and a little bit of a deep dive.

514
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: I prefer everybody knows plastic references. I don't think that

515
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 1: I get extra points for contemporary. So you know, so

516
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: I hike millennials, you know. I guess, thank you, Gus,

517
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: I guess I'll get it started. I'll just say for

518
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: me um and and maybe I'll throw it to Mark

519
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 1: because I know Mark you had to take away on this.

520
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: There were three big stars in this episode, and I

521
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: think coach Bill O'Brien was one Greg you'll get into

522
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 1: your love of a certain few would in practice. That

523
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 1: was a big storyline. But J. J. Watt, who it

524
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: shouldn't be surprised to anyone, had a big part in

525
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: this premiere and he seems like a guy that's going

526
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: to be focused on throughout the episode. And you might

527
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: have a problem with this, Mark No. Well, no, let

528
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: me start by saying, j. J. Watt is We just

529
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 1: talked about Geno Smith. You want a centerpiece for your team.

530
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: J J. Watt is that, and on the field and

531
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: off the field, he is. That What my issue was

532
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: a little bit because I knew I knew watching this

533
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks episode, you're not They didn't get to the

534
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 1: quarterbacks till minute thirty seven and in the twenty of

535
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: the first thirty seven minutes where J J. Watt, which

536
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: I get, that's what they're gonna do, but it was

537
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: almost like, that's exactly what I'm expecting them to do,

538
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 1: and that's exactly what they did. There was a point

539
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: where there was like a six minute like J. J.

540
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: Watt's working out after practice. Oh, look at he's working

541
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: out by himself, and it was just filler. Well, it's

542
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: just I love J. J. Watt. It's but you're don't

543
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 1: take it the wrong way. I love J. J. Watt.

544
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: What I don't like is the way they put it together,

545
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: and that show is just endless, Watson, there's a lot

546
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 1: of a storylines. Dig a little deeper. I'm sure they will.

547
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,400
Speaker 1: Here's I look at this the other way. I didn't

548
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: see the show, but in your recap, the thing to

549
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: stood out the most to me is J. J. Watt.

550
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: His uniqueness that when it's dark out he's out working

551
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: out alone. He's got a half ton tire that he

552
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: started out lifting one time and now lifts at sixty

553
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: five times the difference between him. This is why he's

554
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: going to be the greatest defensive player in history. Lawrence

555
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: Taylor and his free time had cocaine and hookers. Geno Markeetty.

556
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,439
Speaker 1: People of the fifties will say Geno Markeetti was the

557
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 1: best defensive player of the fifties and sixties. And if

558
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: he had been able to work out year round, if

559
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: it was an eleven billion dollar industry when he played,

560
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: he'd beat J. J. Watt. But the reason why, what

561
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: is going to be the best ever is because he

562
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 1: does this year round. He's I'm coming at this from

563
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 1: a from a watching the show angle, not whether I

564
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: agree with all that g G. What is that player?

565
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: There was a period or the show where I was bored.

566
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: I get it, I get them. Does this let me

567
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: just for people that haven't seen because I know I

568
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 1: get a lot of sweets, like our UK audience doesn't

569
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: have access to the show. Immediately, they actually after a

570
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: practice segment, then it was j J under the lights

571
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 1: by himself at the Houston practice field. They showed him

572
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 1: going to town on a tackling sled. They showed him

573
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: using a jugs machine, and then he signed autographs, did

574
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: an interview with Willie of NFL Network, signed more autographs,

575
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 1: and that shows that about ten PM him walking off

576
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 1: the field. The cynic in me and I will this

577
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 1: is where I kind of maybe agree with Mark or

578
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 1: maybe you had a similar feeling. Was is j J

579
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: uh what for real? Or is he you know kind

580
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: of full of game? Suggest But when I'm talking about

581
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: I mean in terms of in terms of whether or

582
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: not uh he would really be doing this if the

583
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: cameras are there. But ultimately it doesn't matter. I knew

584
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: that work ethically. I got a text from a friend

585
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: last night. He said, who's the bigger phony? J? J?

586
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: Wat Russell Wilson, And I think And I was watching

587
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 1: that and I already felt actually set something to my wife,

588
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: who watched the show with me. I was like, everyone

589
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: is gonna say he was just doing it for the

590
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: cameras that he's out there doing But then I'm thinking

591
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: about it, and do we really want to hold it

592
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: against him? Do we not think that he was doing

593
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: stuff like that by himself late at night when the

594
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: cameras weren't there. I think he was with the game tape,

595
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: the game taps suggested in his free time he's doing

596
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: nothing but working out. At my point, can because I

597
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: think I can see this getting ribbled around. It's like

598
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: I don't think he's phony at all. I think all

599
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: that's is real And I think if HBO is two

600
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: thousand miles away, he'd still be doing it. My point

601
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 1: was it was boring televisions. Last um, last point a whip.

602
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: Before we go to Greg's takeaway, last scene of the episode,

603
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: he's thrown corn. Oh yeah, not a spinner. Do you think? Oh?

604
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: Then I could take him down West, I could beat

605
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: him nothing. That's what I actually crossed my mind. West

606
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: is so famously good at corn Hall that I thought J. J.

607
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: Watt might be the best pound for pound athlete in

608
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: professional sports, and West would literally wipe him. We went

609
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: lefty backhand. It was bizarre. Your takeaway, well, I thought

610
00:29:54,960 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: the sequence between Dan DeAndre Hopkins in D'Angel Hall was

611
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: one of the top ten moments in Hard Knocks history.

612
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: I jumped up out of my chair. It was devastating.

613
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: When D'Angelo Hall retires, I will think about the sequence

614
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: of him being on the sideline, not even playing, chirping

615
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: at DeAndre Hopkins just because he wants to be on

616
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks or just because he's an idiot and sharing.

617
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: I think it's because he's big hat, no cat. He

618
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: was doing nothing, and he starts talking trash to DeAndre

619
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: Hopkins and they go back and forth. What does Hopkins

620
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: say It's important? He repeats the same thing. Hopkins, by

621
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,719
Speaker 1: the way, to me a very interesting compelling figure in

622
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: this first episode, kind of hard to get get a

623
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: hold of what he's all about, but he keeps repeating,

624
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: I fear god Boy, I fear god Boy, I fear

625
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: god Boy. I don't even know what I meant, only

626
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: the big man upstairs, but it was us. It was amazing.

627
00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: Smash cut two. DeAndre Hopkins lie me up across from

628
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: D'Angelo Hall and the music starts swelling like at the

629
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: end of the Around the NFL podcast, and they're ready,

630
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: and he makes a move that injureds D'Angelo Hall. He

631
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: hurts his knee, he hurts his ankle, right heart, his

632
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: knee and strained Saint his groin. He basically broke his ankle.

633
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: D'Angelo Hall crumpled to the ground. That was it, and

634
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: that was it. It was over first round. Knockouts did

635
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: say something after his comment then was DeAndre just says

636
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: again in a very laconic manner, He's just like, I

637
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: just finished it. I didn't start nothing. We're a little

638
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: out of D'Angelo Hall show up to work today. To me,

639
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: that's one of the most embarrassing moments that any NFL

640
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: player has ever had to experience. That's hearing someone chatter

641
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: like that and then just get injured and taking his

642
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: manhood away. So he almost literally broke the other guy's ankle.

643
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: Was it was? It really was a devastating move. Um

644
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: and I guess what's stuck out to me was Bill O'Brien.

645
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: And if you are a religious watcher of Hard Knocks,

646
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: you know Mike Smith last year played a major role

647
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: in it, being maybe one of the lesser seasons. He

648
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: was such a low key figure, you didn't really buy

649
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: into any of it. He was kind of a low talker,

650
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: not somebody that excites you. Bill O'Brien is clearly a

651
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: Belichick disciple, and how psychologically he deals with his players,

652
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: kind of his attitude and his love and I love.

653
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: I always love a man who is good with an

654
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: F bomb or a woman if you know how to

655
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: drop an bomb with the right amount of verve. And

656
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: this guy, he's gonna challenge Rex Ryan for the most

657
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: F bombs and Hard Knocks system, and he knows how

658
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: to say it, and he knows how to deliver it,

659
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: and just a devastating way. So to see O'Brien, who's

660
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: a passionate, excitable guy. Usually and I wrote in the

661
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: review that on Hard Knocks there's usually an assistant coach

662
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: that kind of steals the thunder of the head coach.

663
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna happen this time. Well, Romeo

664
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: Connell was almost this. I was gonna say the but

665
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: the F bomb thing there was at the end of

666
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: the show, bombs and he I don't think he dropped

667
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: an F bomb. I looked like he had to take

668
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: a nap though he was exhausted by the time. He's

669
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: an old man, but he'd get a little fire. But

670
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: Billy o b I'm I'm very excited about him this.

671
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: He is such a masshole. I mean, he's from Boston

672
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: and he's just great. You're great. He just has a way.

673
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: That's it. I was trying to put my finger on it.

674
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: I went to school in Boston, and I know a

675
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: lot of guys that I like, and I like their

676
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: kind of a brasive attitude. That's who he is. And

677
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: I like how he opened the show where he said

678
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: not a single person respects this team talking to his assistance,

679
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: and I think that's a good war cris like going

680
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: all in on this nobody respects our quarterback thing, and

681
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: he thinks you're good. He's gonna find out that they're

682
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: not getting the speech to his coaches. I thought that

683
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: was weird. I liked it to be honest, and he's

684
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: getting them ready for camp. Every year. My wife has

685
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 1: the same question. She says, why do they have to

686
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: make so many speeches? And I always think, like, is

687
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: it really necessary to make so many speeches in seven

688
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: weeks away and it's all speeches every day. I don't know.

689
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: So there And if you haven't seen the show and

690
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: you have the ability to see it, um try to

691
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: watch Hard Knocks. It really is the best sports documentary

692
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: program out there and the greatest inside look at the

693
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: NFL you'll ever get. In an error where access is shrinking,

694
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: Hard Knocks literally gives you everything. The only thing it

695
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: didn't give me, by the way, one last point, Aaron

696
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: Foster was hoping that was gonna be We're gonna get

697
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,320
Speaker 1: a good look at what happened. You don't see the injury.

698
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 1: He disappears from cameras. Uh so you didn't get a

699
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: lot of that. But other than that, I give it

700
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: a nice that's an a minus premier. Alright, moving on, gentlemen,

701
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: there is a game that we like to play. It's

702
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: it's an It's a game where and if you're new

703
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: viewers or listeners to the show, it might be a

704
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: little it's a little high concept. So just follow along.

705
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: We each present two scenarios, and then we ask each

706
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: other what's your fancy? If you had to choose between

707
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: one of them, what would it be? And you know,

708
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: what's your fancy? You know it's not necessarily the greatest

709
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: title for a game, but if you flip it around

710
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 1: and you stick stick, what's your fancy? In the Google

711
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,600

00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 1: of pressure on you. Uh what comes up? Qual that's

714
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 1: too fantasia. I'm no, I'm not handling. Look at this.

715
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: This is fancy. We gotta we gotta graphic that says

716
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful thing. So each of the international show

717
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: a lot. Don't we get our list that's national somehow.

718
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: So let's go around the horn and each throw out

719
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: one or two of these in the mood. And I'll

720
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 1: start it with Mark Sesso. He's going to the doctor tomorrow,

721
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 1: so we don't know if we're gonna see him again.

722
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: We don't know what's gonna happen, so might as well

723
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,919
Speaker 1: get these out, because really, this is really in your week.

724
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: I also wrote this in the middle of feeling extremely ill.

725
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: That could make it even better. I'm not sure about

726
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:43,839
Speaker 1: that alright, So two scenarios. The first one, okay, if

727
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: you are transported back to the Middle Ages, where you

728
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,919
Speaker 1: sit on the throne of ease in a kingdom named

729
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: Pantolocks nine. For ten years, you exist in ultimate luxury.

730
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: You're infinitely wealthy. All food, all food and drink is yours.

731
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: You have a fan base like life is beautiful until

732
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: the final day when angry race of invaders burned into

733
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: the kingdom and behead you and mere seconds hoisting your

734
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 1: bloody head on a pole and traveling with it as

735
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: a reminder of their dominance for years to come. So

736
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 1: things very good. Then they get bad or let me

737
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: just get panelox nine, food and drinks, Life is great.

738
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: Then a revolt in your murder exactly option too, the

739
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: coming Yeah, what happened to the music? There we go.

740
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: You become the host of NFL Game Day Morning for

741
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: the next ten years and author seven devastating football books

742
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: that changed the country before you are taken down by

743
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: an assassin's bullet in the streets of Montpelier, Vermont, Vermont.

744
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: I knew they would skew violent with Mark. Well, it's

745
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: just there's both why are we in Montpelier like a

746
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 1: bed and breakfast? There? Don't because I hate bed and breakfast.

747
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 1: Is it's so awkward. You're not a b you're at

748
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: a BnB. You're not a BnB game Day morning host

749
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,720
Speaker 1: for ten years? I mean you're an icon as always.

750
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: What happens to Rich Eysing? Well, yeah, we don't worry

751
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,280
Speaker 1: about that. Ten years author of many high, high octane

752
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,280
Speaker 1: books that changed the culture, assassinated in New England. Okay,

753
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: I've got an answer. Well, you want the second option.

754
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: Obviously the first option. I mean, for ever since Ulysses,

755
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: we've heard about sirens, and you know the inherent danger

756
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,399
Speaker 1: your life is going to turn bad. If you fall

757
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 1: victim to basically the sloth of just enjoying luxury for

758
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: X amount of years, you Tybee Island Corp. You'll become

759
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,240
Speaker 1: You'll right, this happened to me. If you become self indulgent,

760
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: you also become hollowed out as a person. I think

761
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: that it's better. I need to get out of that environment.

762
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: I'm moving to Los Angeles. It's exactly what happened. I

763
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: think the second option. You're working for something. Every day,

764
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: you're you're you're you have accomplishments and achievements. It's gonna

765
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: make you a better person. You will treat people better.

766
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: The game day morning host thing doesn't even sound like

767
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 1: a positive. That's houthing stressed terrible at it, but it

768
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 1: is my dream. It would be great to see your

769
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: own book at a at a bookstore and much less

770
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: seven you know, knockouts. So that alone, I'm taking that

771
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: option just because that seems awesome. So in the game

772
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 1: day morning scenario, I'm shot to death and pantalocks nine,

773
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 1: I'm beheaded. Yeah, so I'm breaking it down to that.

774
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 1: And they danced around with your head on a pool.

775
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: Yeah that I don't care. I'm I'm separated from my

776
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: being at that point. Is it a single kill shot?

777
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 1: All right, I'll be that guy. I would too. I

778
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,439
Speaker 1: think it'd be awesome. They get assassinated. What a great

779
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 1: way to go. I'm gonna there's an insane, deranged Settler

780
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: fan that's taking notes and putting on red lipstick right now,

781
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: wes your turn alright a little, but by the way, mark,

782
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: that was appropriately deranged. So if you have a slightly

783
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: more like football normal one, use that one now as

784
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: a counteractive. All right, I'll use my most normal one.

785
00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: This is a hype test for rookies. Your team Jets,

786
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 1: Brown's Patriots, Your team starting quarterbacks, starting running back, top

787
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: two receivers, and best pass rusher go down to injury.

788
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: You get one of these groups of five to replace them.

789
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: Marcus Marietta, Amari Cooper, Philip Dorsett, Amir Abdullah and Vic Beasley.

790
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: This is your all hype five, all rookie. These are

791
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 1: your The next group is gonna be all rookies too.

792
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: Those guys are hyped or this group Jamis Winston, Kevin White,

793
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: Davonte Parker, Todd Gurley, and Bud Dupree. Guys who are

794
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: not getting hype and or are injured putting their Week

795
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 1: one status in doubt. You can have them for the

796
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 1: entire season. The second group was a lot more highly

797
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: value coming out of the draft. The first group is

798
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: being hyped tremendous, and this is just for one year,

799
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 1: not just for this year. I'm taking Jamis Winston as

800
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: my leader. Why Why do I feel differently about him

801
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 1: now than I did uh during the draft season. He

802
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: was the quarterback I wanted. And it all starts there.

803
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: Kevin White, you know it doesn't look great. But do

804
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,800
Speaker 1: I want Kevin White? Do I want Davonte Parker Dorset.

805
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: That's a big edge for Parker. I think he'll be

806
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,400
Speaker 1: back eventually. I want Girle over Abdul. I know it's

807
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 1: only one year, but I don't care. You know that

808
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: can half of the year, and frankly, I don't. I

809
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 1: learned about a lot of these college guys once they

810
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 1: begin their NFL careers in terms of skill you're tracking

811
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: them for from high school on. Well, that's that's you.

812
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: You go junior high uh so, But I do based

813
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 1: on just what I know. I just like the look

814
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 1: of that second team as well. Winston scares me a

815
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 1: lot from a personality standpoint, but you know, and who

816
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: knows what happens if the Bears receiver ends up shin

817
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: splints turned into something longer. But I'm gonna roll the

818
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 1: dice and Girly to me is the wild card because

819
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: if he shows up and he's week one and he's dominant,

820
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 1: I gotta stud running back in a prompting cuban, I

821
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: am going to go with the first group because the

822
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: first group solves. If you're talking. You pointed to me

823
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 1: with the Browns, it solves everyone of the problems. You

824
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: have a quarterback in Mariota that they wanted to begin

825
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: with and is by all accounts, incredibly smart, picked up

826
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 1: the NFL program pretty quickly. They don't have any wide receivers,

827
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: and suddenly you have Philip Dorset, and you have who

828
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 1: is the other one of Marie Cooper Hello, and then

829
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: you know they have Duke Johnson injured. You just plugging

830
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: a doulah. I like, well, everything we've heard about him

831
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 1: as well, So I have no problem with group number one.

832
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm with you on this. I am all in on

833
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota. I I like everything I've heard about him,

834
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,879
Speaker 1: and I think out of this entire group A, Marie

835
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: Cooper is going to have the biggest thing keys and

836
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: can't say any of them. You might not get really

837
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: good talk Gurley until November. That's a surprising um thing

838
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: that West has fallen for the preseason. We haven't even

839
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: gotten to the preseason, and you're taking it's not the

840
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: interception talk at all, it's everything else. That he's incredibly accurate,

841
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 1: that he's poised, that he has everything you want. I

842
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: think the fact that he just I think that you're

843
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: surprised that I believe in the inf fector for quarterbacks.

844
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: I totally believe in the effector. And I think Mariota

845
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: has The NFL is silly by the way and and

846
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 1: how we all track these practices, but I feel like

847
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: there's been special tension given to interceptions. It's I'm gonna

848
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: defer to you, Greg, give us another one. All right,

849
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: It's a simple one. You know, I wanted to balance

850
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: down to it out. You have this year to go

851
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: win a super Bowl. You're the general manager. You don't

852
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 1: have to worry about options for the trades. You just

853
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: get to choose. It's a magical different universe. You have

854
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl one this year. Do you

855
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:34,560
Speaker 1: take as your quarterback Matt Ryan or do you take

856
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. You don't know anything about your defense or

857
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 1: what's around you. Just this year. You need to win

858
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl now, Matt Ryan or Russell Wilson. It's

859
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 1: there's no question to me. I'll take Russell Wilson. Well,

860
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: number one. You're talking about what he's done it and

861
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: the Falcons for a period of time with Matt Ryan

862
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: had some incredible talent on their team. He's always had

863
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. You don't think Matt Ryan could that made

864
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 1: the super Bowl with that? That's the question. I I listen.

865
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: I guess what I'm saying is I don't know that.

866
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,840
Speaker 1: I know that Russell Wilson can. And I like Russell

867
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: Wilson's work ethic. I think the guy's incredibly underrated and athletic.

868
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: By the way, I forgot to say qual that's too fantasy. Ah,

869
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 1: that's true. I that is my fantasy. I'll go Russell

870
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: Wilson that that's amazing. I mean, Russell Wilson used to

871
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,240
Speaker 1: call him underrated. First all, I don't think he's underrated

872
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 1: at all. Well, one thing I find is everyone now

873
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: is mentioning his personality. We don't like him anymore because

874
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: he's starting to become I think that's a very internal

875
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 1: thing within the studio right as a player, I love

876
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: the guy. I I do too, But I do also

877
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: think that Falcons don't go to the playoffs last year,

878
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: even if Russell Wilson's there. So I think Matt Ryan

879
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 1: is probably a higher talent but right now, but I

880
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 1: think Russell Wilson is a higher ceiling. It's a great

881
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: qualis to if I'm Pasia Greg. I will go with

882
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: this year one year, Matt Ryan at age thirty or

883
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Let me see what Maddie does right now.

884
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: I think he this is the best will ever be

885
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna roll with him. I'll preface this by saying,

886
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: I think Matt Ryan is one of the most undappreciated

887
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league. He's he's a top ten quarterback.

888
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: I'm taking Russell Wilson again because I believe in the

889
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 1: effector he's proven that he can pull out close games.

890
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: I don't know that Ryan can you know, keep calling

891
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:21,719
Speaker 1: out close games? Right? I think Matt Ryan at this

892
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: point is turning into the Tony Romo of his generation.

893
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 1: If you had the right people around him, he of

894
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,759
Speaker 1: course he would be winning Super Bowls with the Seahawks. Eat.

895
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 1: Why what has Tony Romo? One? Wait, isn't Tony Romo

896
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: the Tony Romo? Don't we rail against quarterback win loss record?

897
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 1: It's a team sport in the quarterback matters so much,

898
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: But I truly believe it. You put Matt Ryan in

899
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: the last three years on the Seahawks, I think they've

900
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 1: already won three, two or three Super I don't think.

901
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 1: I think he's superior, and of course I think they're

902
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 1: going to be at least as good as they've been.

903
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 1: You can rail against quarterback wins all you want, but

904
00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,479
Speaker 1: you judge quarterback but by what they do on third

905
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 1: downs in Layton games, and Russell Wilson is great at that,

906
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 1: and Matt Ryan is too. I'm taking That's why it's

907
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 1: a good question everyone. I would I agree with you.

908
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: That's the thing we're going Russell Wilson take it. This

909
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: is not me trolling the Seahawks or anything, but well,

910
00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson didn't just lose the Super Bowl with an interception,

911
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 1: so it's not like he got He got to the

912
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: super Bowl with his unbreakable will in the NFC. Well, well,

913
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: I would also say, because Brandon Boston couldn't catch it

914
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: on side and rust Andy three four in exceptions to

915
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 1: put them there. But I want that. I want that

916
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 1: late game magic. That's what I get that for the

917
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,439
Speaker 1: history of quarterbacking, that's what separates the great. I think

918
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:39,840
Speaker 1: maybe he's not quite there yet though as a quarterback,

919
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 1: whereas I think Ryan is. This is who Ryan is

920
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: and it's a very underappreciated By the way, if Pete

921
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 1: Carroll calls a run on that play, Russell Wilson's gotta

922
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,400
Speaker 1: I wanta fired up quarterback. And that's Russell Wilson. All right,

923
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:54,720
Speaker 1: here we go. I'll step in now, mm hmm a little.

924
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: I'm excited. We gotta make a notation first, do what

925
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: do I get any music waiting for? Here we go?

926
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: You are Geno Smith? Oh no, no, no, I mean

927
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:16,879
Speaker 1: you are Geno Smith right now. You cannot speak, eat

928
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: solid foods, or play football for the next two months

929
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: because you got punch in the jaw by a crazy person.

930
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,799
Speaker 1: You got jacked up. Through back channels, you learned that

931
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 1: teammate Ryan Fitzpatrick was the mastermind behind the sucker punch.

932
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: Your first thought, damn, that's some or you're kidding the

933
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: stuff right there. You have two options. Go to the

934
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 1: police with the revel revelation and turn your career and

935
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 1: the Jets organization into a tabloid sensation that we haven't

936
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 1: seen in decades. Or keep it in house, get healthy,

937
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 1: pummel the Amish rifle in an act of revenge, and

938
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 1: then hold this ugly secret over the organization that allows

939
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: you to hold onto your Jets up forever and get

940
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:06,839
Speaker 1: a series of absurd contracts. Qualis, I mean, I've got

941
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: to go number B. It sounds like you could probably

942
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 1: work up Bobby of Anilla contract out of that at

943
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,319
Speaker 1: some point. I like that. I mean that would show

944
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 1: that Geno number one, keep it all down, you know,

945
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 1: come back, have the fire inside. I mean, it's a

946
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 1: serious lack of integrity though, you're basically a human gutter

947
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 1: ball to choose option B, because you're using this misfortune

948
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 1: and doing something really that's even worse. Well the first though,

949
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 1: the first though is sort of just being a cry

950
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 1: baby and supposing everyone. Yeah, that's how I look at it.

951
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 1: I'm taking option B because that's your quickest route to

952
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: being a great football player. And that's that's what when

953
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,800
Speaker 1: you really look inside Geno Smith, that's all he ever wanted.

954
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 1: He's gonna that's his chance to come back, be a

955
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 1: great quarterback for the Jets and make some money because

956
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: he's he's You can check out Greg's Geno Smith making

957
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,799
Speaker 1: the lead piece on NFL dot com. Got it, he's

958
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,879
Speaker 1: got that will to win inside. West is reading over

959
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 1: my copy trying to make I'm not sure what appeals

960
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 1: about the first situation, you're basically a rat thing. That's right,

961
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 1: a rat. It's not like you're going to the police.

962
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 1: It's just you're letting it play out the way it

963
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,480
Speaker 1: would ordinarily. You're putting it behind you. You're trying to

964
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 1: get on with your career. Or you can take this

965
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 1: misfortune and use it for devious methods that probably like

966
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 1: the first one sounds like you're outing the organization and

967
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 1: everyone else. I feel like the second option, you don't

968
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: say anything and how he plays in the first option,

969
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 1: the second option, you're guaranteed that he plays well, no

970
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: not well, that he gets paid, he holds the starting

971
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 1: job forever, because I like immortality. So I'm taking BE now.

972
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 1: He holds it over the organization like they can't bench him.

973
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 1: He's like, oh you sure you want to bend me.

974
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: Oh so there's blackmail, yeah, big time. There's there's this.

975
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 1: I'm still taking BE. I'd rather I'd rather keep the

976
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 1: starting job than be a rat. Alright, alright, here we go.

977
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: How much time do we have left TV? How many

978
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 1: more can we do well in six minutes? Alright? So

979
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: you emerge at your an age and physical build your

980
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: you to guide the NFL team of your choice to

981
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 1: two straight Super Bowls. Dan Hansis, Gregg rosental West become

982
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 1: football players, take us two team to two straight Super Bowls.

983
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: The feet in itself makes you a sure fire Hall

984
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,760
Speaker 1: of Famer and you are lauded until you pass away

985
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: of natural causes at eight five. No assassination. It's a beautiful,

986
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 1: beautiful life. Or you anonymously cure cancer but live in

987
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 1: poverty for the rest of your life. No one will

988
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,439
Speaker 1: ever know what you did, and you'll have a tough life,

989
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 1: but you did something great for humanity. This isn't fair.

990
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: I'm taking Option B. I've been in my life. It

991
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 1: doesn't money wouldn't holds no appeal. I mean, the money

992
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:46,279
Speaker 1: would make my life a lot easier, but I've been

993
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,200
Speaker 1: in poverty. Well, it's also that you'd'd be a two

994
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 1: time super Bowl winner and wearing a gold jacket I

995
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,320
Speaker 1: can help. But though it can help the entire world.

996
00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:56,279
Speaker 1: But those things, and as we get older, they don't

997
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 1: make you happy. I mean, everyone that doesn't have money

998
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 1: thinks money is gonna make you happy, and study after

999
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,399
Speaker 1: study that money doesn't make you happy. Gold jackets don't

1000
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:06,479
Speaker 1: make you happy. If you knew that you grew. Can't

1001
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:08,320
Speaker 1: you know you cured. Can't you gonna walk around the

1002
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: rest of your life feeling great about yourself? I think, well,

1003
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 1: maybe too much. So I'm going with that option too.

1004
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,239
Speaker 1: And it there's no right answer here because it makes

1005
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 1: us sound like like we're lying or something to go

1006
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: with that option. But especially because you knew you had

1007
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 1: that option, You're gonna feel bad about yourself. That's gonna

1008
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: be tough to deal with. I already deal with a

1009
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:27,319
Speaker 1: lot of thoughts in my head. I'm Jewish, you know

1010
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I already feel guilty for everything. Well,

1011
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: we're not very religious people, but I think what the

1012
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:34,280
Speaker 1: around the NFL podcast is saying, we believe in karma,

1013
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 1: that doing good deeds and being a good person will

1014
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 1: make you a happier, fulfilled person, very special. It's not

1015
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 1: slide into the theology podcast West this is That's why

1016
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: I kept God out of But I will say I

1017
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 1: was going to reference Father Doyle over at St. Margaret's

1018
00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 1: in Pearl River, New York. He would say, Danny, boy,

1019
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 1: you know what you gotta do here? And uh so

1020
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 1: I know what I'm supposed to say, and I really

1021
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 1: know what I have to do. Because if I'm the

1022
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: guy that as I'm gonna go to seven Pro Bowls

1023
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 1: and have a man mini match and uh, you know,

1024
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:07,840
Speaker 1: somewhere on the Jersey shore, I'm a pretty bad person.

1025
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 1: And I'll probably I'll know this too. I'll carry this

1026
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 1: with me, right, Yeah, I think that you're gonna You're

1027
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna eat away at you and you become

1028
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,800
Speaker 1: a despicable person. I'll be like the Geno Smith who

1029
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 1: decides to extot the Jets. I'm with you. I couldn't

1030
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,759
Speaker 1: live with the choice I made. If I even if

1031
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 1: I want two Super Bowls, I will save everyone that

1032
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 1: has cancer, but then contribute to a massive overpopulation problem,

1033
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 1: which will be its own calamity. And Hansis goes Mouthfusian.

1034
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:39,359
Speaker 1: All right, little peek behind the curtain here. Greg has

1035
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 1: to go down to our sales team meeting because his

1036
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,279
Speaker 1: Quarterback Index feature, which is weekly during the season, has

1037
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 1: gotten so good that they want to spin off the

1038
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that Gregg doesn't cover on a weekly basis. So

1039
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 1: here's option. Hey, you're charged with writing this spin off

1040
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:59,399
Speaker 1: sponsored by pep Pepto bis Maul called feeling nauseous question Mark.

1041
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:05,960
Speaker 1: You write the Quarterback Index, but you only cover the Bills, Jets, Browns, Texans, Chiefs,

1042
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,320
Speaker 1: and Rams. You have to watch all of their tape

1043
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:10,840
Speaker 1: every week and write up an article just on the

1044
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:15,200
Speaker 1: worst quarterbacks in the league or Option B. You must

1045
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:18,920
Speaker 1: draw up lengthy treatises along the lines of Dan's Hard

1046
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:23,400
Speaker 1: Knocks recaps on all the following, the entire first season

1047
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:28,240
Speaker 1: of HBO's Ballers, the entire first and of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt,

1048
00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 1: the entire second season of HBO's True Detective, Bridget Jones Diary,

1049
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 1: and Bridget Jones The Edge of Reason. Reason sounds like

1050
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: a Westream assignment. This is super easy. This is super

1051
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:46,399
Speaker 1: easy for me because I actually like True Detective season two.

1052
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: Let us say what he needs to say, though, qual

1053
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 1: thank you, Yeah, I mean, I I would love to

1054
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 1: write about True Detective season two, but the rest of

1055
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:58,879
Speaker 1: those are at garbage cheap, so no, thank you. I mean,

1056
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 1: even if you're watching add quarterback play, you're watching both teams,

1057
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 1: you're learning, you're you're getting something out of it. You

1058
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 1: can be an authority on that, and it's closely linked
