Speaker 1: Uh so Mary's on the uh is our uh engineer

111
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: for the program. So a lot to do, uh so

112
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: little time on this funky flashback Friday. And let's start

113
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: here Kelvin with the Dodgers and uh you want to

114
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: paint the picture tonight game number six in Toronto, and

115
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: the Dodgers are hoping and praying that y'all, momodo pitch

116
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: is a no hit or a perfect game.

117
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 4: That's the way they could win.

118
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 6: I mean, they've already said that he's going and like this,

119
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 6: there's no secret he's going as far as he can take.

120
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 4: Them, as long until they about hit him around a

121
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 4: little bit.

122
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 3: Yep, hit him around. So basically we're here.

123
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 6: Well, the Blue Jays robber up three to two in

124
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 6: this game six and how did they get there to.

125
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 4: Get to three to two.

126
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: Remember the Dodgers win that eighteen inning game right at

127
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: home and then lose the next two at home, Like

128
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: that was with old Tani on the mound.

129
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 6: After that, right, that didn't work out, So that that's

130
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 6: a big you know, you lose. It wasn't like you

131
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 6: lost with them. You lose with a guy on the mountain.

132
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: You lose, and then Blake Snail comes back.

133
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 6: You're feeling like, all right, well, well he'll bounce back,

134
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 6: and he wasn't horrible. But again, the Dawkins did not support.

135
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 6: They got no run support. So now three to two.

136
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 6: So basically, when teams are down three to two in

137
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 6: a series, they come back to win it thirty percent

138
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 6: of the time. So that's what the percentage. Just have time, right, yes,

139
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,919
Speaker 6: seventy percent. If you're up, you win it. So the

140
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 6: Dodgers are facing that right now. The only thing in

141
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 6: their favor to me, we've talked about it where is

142
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 6: baseball is a little weird and that home field advantage

143
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 6: isn't quite like other sports. So if you're the Dodgers,

144
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 6: you're hoping because we just saw the Mariners get a

145
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 6: couple last series versus the Blue Jays, So that's what

146
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 6: you'd be leaning on and hoping for there. So the question,

147
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 6: Rob really comes down to all that the Dodgers acquired,

148
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 6: all that they did this offseason, coming into this season

149
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 6: as the World Series rainning World Series champs. If the

150
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 6: Dodgers were to lose, because we won't be back, you know,

151
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 6: even if they win tonight, they could lose tomorrow. You

152
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 6: and I won't be on until Monday. If they were

153
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 6: to lose, is this season of failure? Kelvin without question.

154
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: If the Dodgers lose this World Series, and you got

155
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: to remember this, when the season started, people were saying

156
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: it was unfair.

157
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 4: Remember it's unfair. Look at what they did in the offseason.

158
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: They won the World Series last year, and all they

159
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: did was be getting loaded for bear that it was

160
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: unfair everybody else. They were supposed to be what the Beatles.

161
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: Most of the season they turned out to be a

162
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: culture club with boy George, but they were supposed to

163
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: be the Beatles. There's no way you can look at

164
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: this team, the roster, the pitching, everything that they put

165
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: together and think that they can lose this and it's

166
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: no big deal.

167
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: Tip your cap to the Blue Jays and keep it moving.

168
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: It will be one of the most colossal collapses for

169
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: a team that everybody thought this whole time I've been

170
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: doing Shekel City. Do you know every night the Blue

171
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 1: Jays are getting plus one and a half runs like

172
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 1: they've been underdog every night. Nobody believes it. They remind

173
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: me of win the Pistons beat the Lakers. I'm sorry

174
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: La fans back in two thousand and four, every time

175
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: they won, they look when they win, well, the Lakers

176
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: will win the next game.

177
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 4: Well, the Lakers will winning Do you do you remember Calvin?

178
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, remember, oh yeah, after Kobe helped them win

179
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: that game, hit the three in Game two? Right, okay,

180
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: now it's over now, Okay. Then the Pistons win Game

181
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: three in Detroit. All right, the Lakers will win the

182
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 1: next one. All right, the Pistons win that game out,

183
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: they'll win the next one.

184
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 4: And I know.

185
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: People want to believe they're gonna turn the fascet on

186
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden everything's.

187
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 4: Gonna click back or whatever.

188
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: This team just hasn't been in a funk for five

189
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: days or a week since September.

190
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 4: Google of Numbers, go look.

191
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 1: They've been scuffling offensively, the Dodgers have.

192
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 4: They have three runs in his.

193
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: Two games stre right, in the last two games, and

194
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: that's been batting one sixty four with twenty two strikeouts.

195
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: This is the last two games at home in LA.

196
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: We're sleeping in your own bed. I'm sorry. And the

197
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: other part is the Blue Jays aren't fraudulent or they've

198
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: played over their heads. They came into this World Series

199
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: averaging six and a half runs. Do you know what

200
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: that is? In baseball? Teams don't average six and a

201
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: half runs for season. Six and a half runs. It's

202
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: a ton of runs. My point is simple. The Dodgers

203
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: can't turn it on. They haven't hit in a long time. Sure,

204
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: I'm not saying they're gonna get shut out or no hit

205
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: or anything like that, but Kelvin, this.

206
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 4: Will be a colossal failure for the Dodgers.

207
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: Who spent what one point two billion dollars or whatever

208
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 1: it was in the offseason, and even when they went

209
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: and got Tanner Scott right, remember, oh my god, look

210
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: at what they're doing.

211
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 4: Dude. None of this.

212
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: Will be good unless they repeat as World Series champs.

213
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 6: I hear everything you say, and I'm not mad at you,

214
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 6: and I'm sure there's a contingent folks who will feel

215
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 6: the same.

216
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 3: Way, but I disagree.

217
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 6: Here's why you mentioned people coming in and beginning talking about, oh,

218
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 6: the evil Empire, Oh the Dodgers are doing this. You

219
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 6: and I, yes, me and you both said stop it.

220
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 6: That guarantees you nothing in baseball. Me and You've talked

221
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 6: about spending the most money means nothing.

222
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 3: Spending the most.

223
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 6: Money, in fact, if anything, gets you more pressure to

224
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 6: actually have to compete, win and do something, as the Mets,

225
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 6: who don't even make the postseason. Right, We've talked about

226
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 6: the Yankees spent a bunch of money, haven't won quite

227
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 6: some time. We talked about the Dodgers who spent a

228
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 6: bunch of money and then finally went until they won

229
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,199
Speaker 6: in twenty twenty. So spending a bunch of money accumulating

230
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 6: players doesn't mean anything. Also, this team, while great on paper,

231
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 6: had a bunch of injuries on and off. Blake Snell

232
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 6: only started at eleven games. You got Glass now only

233
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 6: started eighteen. You had some other guys in and out

234
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 6: the lineup, so they weren't fully themselves throughout the season,

235
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 6: and offensively they have been struggling throughout the season, had

236
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 6: some bad periods. People thought they were gonna win one

237
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 6: hundred and ten to fifteen games.

238
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 3: They barely. What was it like around ninety I believe

239
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 3: it was so.

240
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 6: Their starting pitching came together towards the end of the season, but.

241
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 4: Everybody with that pitching.

242
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 6: They were like, right, And I agree that's what mass

243
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 6: that the team wasn't really that great an NBP candidate,

244
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 6: and Mookie Betts was terrible this season for a large

245
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 6: portion of it.

246
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 3: He got great at the very last month. He was off.

247
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 6: We'd never seen them this dejected, he was emotional, he

248
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 6: didn't have words. When they would be interviewed, you and

249
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 6: I would be like, I've never seen Mookie like this.

250
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 6: Mookie didn't have a great season. So there was a

251
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 6: lot that actually would tell you this team is good,

252
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 6: but they're not great. And I think the starting pitching

253
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 6: mask stat and we know how hard this is.

254
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 3: It's a reason.

255
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 6: Why no one has won in twenty five years back

256
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 6: to back championships. There's a reason why no one in

257
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 6: the NL has won sense what was it seventy six

258
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 6: saw Reds seventy five seventy six Reds so to me

259
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 6: to get the year obviously have a shot, get all

260
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 6: the way six. I don't see it as a failure,

261
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 6: massive disappointment, right because you were right there from doing it.

262
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 6: But it is very difficult to do clearly hasn't happened

263
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 6: in fifty years in the NL, twenty five years altogether.

264
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 6: And again you've set yourself up by having all this

265
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 6: great talent to be right back here next year and

266
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 6: have another chance to compete. So I don't view it

267
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 6: as a failure, but I could. I get why you may,

268
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 6: but I don't. Specifically in baseball, if this was the

269
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 6: Warriors with Kevin Durant, I would understand it. Some of

270
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 6: those Patriot teams, Brady and the whole like I would

271
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 6: understand it being a failure of Seeds because that's how

272
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 6: they operate, Shaq and Kobe failure if we don't win

273
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 6: the championship.

274
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 3: It's a bit different in baseball.

275
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: I just when you look at the way this team

276
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: was put to other than the money spent, this was

277
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: to win a World Series, not to get to it

278
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: and lose it. They were the overwhelming favorites when they

279
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 1: swept the Brewers. Will you admit that overwhelming, overwhelming.

280
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 4: Yes, all right, and for them to be in this

281
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 4: situation all right?

282
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox We want to

283
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: hear from you. Do the Dodgers have to win this

284

Speaker 1: World Series, come back, win the next two games.

285
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 4: If they lose.

286
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: Tonight or tomorrow and they're all done, is it a

287
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: colossal failure? I say yes, Kelvin says no. What do

358
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: games in Detroit during those twenty years, I got to

359
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: hear Old Canada a million times, you know where most

360
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: people don't get to hear it unless you go.

361
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 3: On hot That's a good point.

362
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 6: You said all the time in hockey and you went

363
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 6: what'd you say, one season you went to for one

364
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 6: or something.

365
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 4: I went to.

366
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: Thirty eight of the forty one home games at Joe

367
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: Louis Arena, and whenever the Canadian teams are in, they

368
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 1: play both national anthems.

369
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 4: So I used to hear it all the time. Got

370
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 4: to love it.

371
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 1: I know I can't sing, but I wanted to honor

372
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,360
Speaker 1: the great country of Canada.

373
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 3: Did you honor them with that vocal performance?

374
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 4: Yes?

375
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: Because they know that, yes, I mean they don't think

376
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 1: I'm a professional singer. I'm a talk show host. That's all.

377
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:51,719
Speaker 6: Well, listen, if you ever need to leave this country,

378
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 6: maybe you have second citizens. You said, you know citizens

379
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 6: you can go over there, maybe a citizen of Toronto

380
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 6: or where'd you like Vancouver where's the where's the spot

381
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 6: you Montreal?

382
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: Montreal? Yes, Montreal, Toronto. Those are the two. I have

383
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 1: not been to Vancouver yet. That's somewhere I do want

384
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: to get to.

385
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 4: All right.

386
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: We had some shakeup. We saw last night Lamar twenty

387
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: eight to seven the Ravens. What he have seventy two

388
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 1: percent completion right, Kelvin four touchdowns and you said it.

389
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 1: We talked earlier today, like he's out in the backyard like.

390
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 6: My older brother playing with the little Brothers friends, where

391
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 6: you're just like, now you can't play, you know what,

392
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 6: You're too good.

393
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 3: That's what Lamar looks like when he just.

394
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: Looks easy when he's throwing the football around and whatnot.

395
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: And anyway, it was another loss for the Miami Dolphins,

396
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: and then Shane, it were changes that happened today when

397
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: we woke up with the Dolphins.

398
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 4: Yeah.

399
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 7: So the Dolphins are probably the only team that make

400
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 7: me happy to be a Browns fan, which is very

401
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 7: hard to do. Oh yeah, so this morning, team owners

402
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 7: Stephan Ross announce the decision Friday to mutually part ways

403
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 7: with longtime general manager midway through his tenth season in

404
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 7: the role. Roughly twelve hours after the Dolphins twenty six

405
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 7: loss to the Baltimore Ravens at hard Rock Stadium, dropping

406
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 7: the record to two and seven. What do you guys

407
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 7: think about this firing?

408
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 3: All right?

409
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: Rob?

410
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 6: For me, this is this is at to quote my

411
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 6: good friend Rob Parker, this is easy.

412
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 3: Mike mcdan the GM fine, Chris Gear had a good run.

413
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 6: Of ten years. He was down for what since twenty sixteen?

414
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 6: And yeo have been twenty years? Yeah, had been very

415
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 6: loyal to the guy, right, Yeah, absolutely, you had a

416
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 6: good run. And we know all good things must come

417
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 6: to end. Specifically, I'm a way that to the side.

418
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 6: And I'm gonna say Mike McDaniels and I talked about

419
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 6: this at the beginning of the season with you. It's

420
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 6: just time for him to go. And it's not as

421
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 6: if he's He reminds me of a Josh McDaniels. Maybe

422
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 6: he'll get another head coaching job, but maybe ultimately as well,

423
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 6: he's just made to be a really good offense coordinator somewhere,

424
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 6: and that's just where he's great, and that's where he thrives.

425
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,679
Speaker 6: A couple of reasons why I say this, Rob, Not

426
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 6: every season is gonna be great. We know that. That's

427
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,199
Speaker 6: just football, that's just any sport. But a few things

428
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 6: cannot be happening to me if I'm a general manager

429
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 6: or an owner of a team in this case, watching

430
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 6: my team. You can't be an offensive guru in our

431
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 6: offensive table.

432
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 3: That's number one. You can't be this young, offensive, brilliant

433
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 3: mind in our offense. Stinks.

434
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 6: That can't happen because at least that could be your

435
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 6: saving grace. Because you also can't lose the locker room,

436
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 6: and we're doing the locker room has been bad, the

437
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 6: let toxic, the all the reports coming out. We're hearing this.

438
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 6: We're hearing that. Guys don't like it. Guys aren't showing

439
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 6: up to meetings. Guys are just leaving meetings. Star players

440
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 6: are doing this as well, not like some randos, the

441
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 6: big time names are leaving. This is why they ship

442
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 6: Jayleen Ramsey out of there. And then you're beefing with

443
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 6: the quarterback who I've given the whole entire brink struck two.

444
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 6: So I can't just get rid of him because he's

445
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 6: been poop pool as well. I wish I could, but

446
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 6: it'll be too difficult right now. I'd have to figure

447
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 6: out a way. So you and the quarterback are beefing.

448
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 6: Your feuding. The locker room's great, and what's happening off

449
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 6: the field is on the field is bad as well.

450
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 6: So at what point, Rob, do I have something to

451
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 6: hang my hat on with you? We're not scoring, we

452
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 6: look awful on the field. You and the quarterback don't

453
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,239
Speaker 6: get along. The locker room's broken. What do I and

454
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 6: you haven't been a successful winning They haven't won games

455
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 6: or two and whatever right now, two and five and

456
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 6: they're owing to in the postseason or name so, they have.

457
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 4: Made the postseason. You're acting like they haven't even made

458
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 4: they made the post Let me tell you something about that.

459
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 6: This team hadn't won a postseason game since twenty six years,

460
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 6: the longest trout in the NFL, and it's only been

461
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 6: to the postseason four times in twenty three years.

462
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 3: Even the Lions can laugh at that.

463
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 4: Blame Don Trula, the late great.

464
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 6: I'm sorry they get Don shuld Ron Ron is great

465
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 6: at you right now. So while I'm saying I believe

466
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 6: he can get a a second chance somewhere at some point,

467
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 6: he's only forty two years old.

468
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 3: But right now it's just time to move on.

469
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 6: Sign to blow the whole thing up and figure and

470
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 6: find out what your next thing is.

471
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 3: Because it looks awful.

472
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 6: Tools regressed, the offense regrets that's what they're supposed to

473
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 6: hang their hat, and that's not the case. Nobody believes

474
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 6: in him. The locker room's broken, Your leaders are leaving

475
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 6: the team. Your leaders are broken. Your Tyreek Hill is

476
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 6: a terrible situation. Ramsey, now to it. I think it's

477
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 6: just he's he won't He may last a year, he

478
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:29,959
Speaker 6: won't make next year.

479
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 3: I don't see that happening.

480
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with the idea of keeping

481
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 1: the coach till the end of the year. And I'm

482
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 1: gonna say this, I agree it's time to make a move,

483
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: But there's so much that goes into it with coaching.

484
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: And here's the other scary part, and I do get it.

485
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: Sometime when you put an introm in players, you win

486
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: a couple of meaningless games. The season's over.

487
00:24:58,400 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 4: Players.

488
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: We saw this and where we saw this in Oakland,

489
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 1: didn't we? I mean in Las Vegas the players rallied

490
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: around Antonio Piers. We want Antonio Piers to be the guy.

491
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: And what happened? Ownership They cave in because they had.

492
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: They brought in an introm right, they won a few games,

493
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: they related to them and did that work out with

494
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: Antonio Piers?

495
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 4: Do you see what I'm saying?

496
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 3: Where is advice?

497
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: Whereas I would rather let them finish out the string.

498
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: We don't have to go change and hire all new

499
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 1: coaches or do all this kind of crazy enough and

500
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: change everything, and then we'll do a real search, go

501
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: find us a coach and whatever. The GM part, I

502
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 1: understand why they want to part ways.

503
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 4: Now there's work to be done.

504
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: We need guys to get ready to pick players for

505
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: next year and the draft and all that. And that's

506
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: why I understand, let's get you know, let's get him

507
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: out of here. We don't want him picking any more

508
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 1: players for us. We don't like the roster that we have,

509
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: so so we want to start on that because before

510
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: the next season comes around, the draft will be here faster.

511
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? I do, But the

512
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: only thing I'll I'll throw it.

513
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 6: That makes this strange rop is that they got four

514
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 6: days to the trade deadline, so they could have waited

515
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 6: five six days.

516
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: No, they don't want him to they don't want him

517
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 1: to have anything to do with personnel.

518
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 4: And that's why I'm just saying.

519
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 3: Because we don't want you to know it's bad. When

520
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 3: they say get out the door, you know, right before

521
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 3: the trade d.

522
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 4: Been there forever.

523
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: Look at that first batter, Old Tawny strikes out to

524
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 1: lead off the game.

525
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 3: I just just you're a little ahead of me, my

526
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 3: little streaming. I saw. I just saw it right now.

527
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, the first two strikes and then right and then

528
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 1: he got him on.

529
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 4: A two two piinch.

530
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 3: Let me let me tell you something about Tony one thing.

531
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 3: I gotta admit when he strike out, that looked it

532
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 3: looks bad.

533
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 6: I ain't go lie Calvin Shade, Hey Shade, that's our man.

534
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 3: But when he strike out, its.

535
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 4: Happened everywhere, like pumping it.

536
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,239
Speaker 7: You can see the sweat flying off of him, and

537
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,360
Speaker 7: like it just looks like he's trying to throw the back.

538
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 6: He didn't got on a he didn't got on his knees,

539
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 6: bended knees.

540
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 3: I thought, held into somebody.

541
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: We've seen him strike out a lot postseason, My goodness, gracious.

542
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 3: So they mixed it up. We just saw will Smith.

00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: and that.

574
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 3: I just need it.

575
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 4: That Yeah, and that was.

576
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: You remember that with Dave Roberts was big when the

577
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: Red Sox came back, he stole that.

578
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 3: Base that whole series, he was still in basis.

579
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a huge part of his career and

580
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 4: that moment for him.

581
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 3: You remember that.

582
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 6: You remember that era in baseball, Rod when they used

583
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 6: to do a thing called still in basis.

584
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: Well, they're doing now. Remember last year Tony stole fifty.

585
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: I mean they're stilling more now.

586
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 3: But what did you used to say about him?

587
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 4: Well, they were phony because he's sliding in the pizza boxes.

588
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: Get anyway, all right, hey, Jay, last thing and then

589
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna take some calls eighty seven, seven ninety nine

590
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: on five Before we move.

591
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 4: On from the Dolphins topic, do you think.

592
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 7: This if, if anything that you guys have been saying

593
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 7: does happen and they end up firing McDaniels or they

594
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 7: end up getting rid of everyone at the end of

595
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 7: the season, does Tuus still have a chance in this league?

596
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 4: Of course he does.

597
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: First of all, he's got a big contract and that's

598
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: gonna keep him around.

599
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 4: That's gonna keep him around. They just can't cut him

600
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 4: or release him. So I don't.

601
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: I don't think two is going anywhere unless they can

602
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 1: make a trade with somebody. I just think financially, you know,

603
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: thise Kelvin, When you sign those deals, you're locked in.

604
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 4: You just you just are another And not.

605
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 6: To mention, I think too someone's gonna say, I like

606
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 6: to when I put him in the right situation.

607
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 4: Right, we saw him scoring seventy points, didn't we see

608
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 4: him scoring sevent the Broncos t heres yep.

609
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 6: Some quarterback coach guru is gonna say, and when everything

610
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 6: is perfect with it, you know his timing, he got

611
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 6: the right receivers. This guy can be accurate because that's

612
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 6: his biggest strength. He's accurate. So they'll say, I can

613
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 6: fix him. You got always happens. I can fix him

614
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 6: all right?

615
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, Did the Dolphins

616
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: do the right thing, which was fire the GM and

617
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 1: keep the coach or they both need to be fired?

618
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 4: Where are you? I think they did the right thing? No, introm.

619
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: We don't want anybody to get connected with one of

620
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: these guys and and and want them to stick around

621
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: and have players lobbying for him to be the head

622
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: coach next year. Or like Kelvin, you think they all

623
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: both should have been broomed out together. And enough with

652
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 4: Covin, how are you feeling in this so far?

653
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is what you want.

654
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,719
Speaker 4: Man, if you're if you're from over, this game is

655
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 4: far from over.

656
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 6: So gosh, listen, if there was a team that the

657
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 6: Dodgers know is far from over, isn't that on Blue Jays?

658
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 6: The way they get runs, the way they hit the

659
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 6: ball up and through that lineup. So but for the Dodgers,

660
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 6: it's just great for them to have to have some

661
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 6: early run support for Yamamode.

662
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 3: So that's fine.

663
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 6: A human being, he can be a human being rob

664
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 6: which means not be your best all the time, meaning

665
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 6: he might give up a couple and still feel like

666
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 6: they're in this game. Uh, so that that has to

667
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 6: be great for them. And if you're Dave Roberts, look

668
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 6: where'd you move Mookie to clean up?

669
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 3: He cleaned up?

670
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 6: Coincidence, luck, good fortune, whatever, the move ended up paying

671
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:58,479
Speaker 6: off thus far.

672
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 4: All the numbers were against them, and he came through

673
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 4: and he neared it.

674
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: That was it, and he looked bad on a two

675
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: strike swing, right, It looked like he threw it by him,

676
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 1: like he wasn't you know, couldn't catch up to it.

677
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: And he came inside again with that pitch and he

678
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: was able to pull it in the left field, get

679
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: two runs in a two clutch, two out hit and

680
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: it's three nothing. Man on second, one out. Yamamoto just

681
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: struck out Clement. I think that's what's up, right, all right?

682
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 1: So there we are as we get ready for the

683
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: third inning now and the final hour of this program. Shay,

684
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: we got a big football game coming up this weekend, right, Yeah,

685
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: of all the teams out there, what we got.

686
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, we got it all. We got Chiefs Bills.

687
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 7: The moment that every NFL fan waits for almost every season,

688
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 7: it seems like it's what we wait for is the

689
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 7: media because we have so much to talk about from implications,

690
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 7: quarterbacks and people. Obviously, Chiefs Bills is a little different

691
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 7: than most years. They both haven't really started off the

692
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 7: way that most expected.

693
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 4: The Patriots are starting on not the Patriots.

694
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 7: The Chiefs off the back of Patrick Mahomes are starting

695
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 7: to pick it up, and the Bills are coming off

696
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 7: of buy who do you guys see standing on top

697
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 7: after this week, Rob.

698
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 6: Kelvin, you could start, well, I think for me, this

699
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 6: game means more for the Bills because I think the

700
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 6: Chiefs feel like, if you're looking at the Chiefs, they're saying,

701
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 6: we're heading in the right direction.

702
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 4: We know we are.

703
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 6: There's this genius that does a show called The Odd

704
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 6: Couple of Kelvin Washington, who said it weeks ago that

705
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 6: the offense was about to get cracking again and look

706
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 6: like what they look like years past, not exactly, but

707
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 6: way better than the last few years. And that's what

708
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 6: they've done. Patrick Mahomes has put himself an MVP candidate

709
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 6: leading right now and also the team leading the odds

710
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 6: of winning a Super Bowl. So I think the Chiefs

711
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 6: feel good about them positions. To Shay's point, the Bills

712
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 6: were all kind of like, eh, I want more from them.

713
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 6: I want them to dominate more. I want to be

714
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 6: more assured what they are as a team. And so

715
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 6: what's interesting is you go into this game where the

716
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 6: Bills Jared Josh Allen has been He's now four and

717
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 6: one in the regular season, so he's dominated the Chiefs.

718
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 6: So the Chiefs can say we've been here before, y'all

719
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:18,800
Speaker 6: beat this in the regular season.

720
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 3: What's the big deal?

721
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 6: Because the Chiefs are four and oh Mahomes against Allen

722
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 6: in the postseason, so this will be the ten time

723
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,399
Speaker 6: that they have matched up.

724
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 3: So to me, the Chiefs are heading in the right direction.

725
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 6: The offense is going, the defense is still good, and

726
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 6: I think they feel confident going into this, but ultimately

727
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 6: also knowing we know where we're headed, we know what

728
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 6: we are. The Bills, to me, I think is more interesting.

729
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:40,959
Speaker 3: We don't know.

730
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 6: Exactly what they are. Can they continue to run the ball?

731
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 6: Can their defense continue to be good? Can they be

732
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 6: where Josh Allen is good or solid and they still

733
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 6: won a game? I don't know that I've seen that

734
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 6: right now? Where can James Cook be relied upon? Where

735
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 6: they run him the ball more? Well, another couple of

736
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 6: receivers step up, And that's the difference to me right now,

737
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 6: Rob where I don't fully know what the Bills are.

738
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 6: They don't look as complete as with a lot of

739
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 6: us Thart coming into this season, and the Chiefs are

740
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 6: starting to peak at the right time.

741
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is big for the Chiefs. They

742
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 1: need it because I think that their season has been

743
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 1: so far. For Gayzy if you look at who they've beat, Gayzey,

744
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: they like, look at their wins. Okay, I'll tell you.

745
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: Look at their losses. They lost to the Chargers, they

746
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 1: lost to Philadelphia, they lost to Jacksonville. And when you

747
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 1: look at their wins, they beat the Giants, the bad

748
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 1: Ravens where they were giving up forty points a game, right.

749
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, they.

750
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 1: Beat Washington without Jayden Daniels, and they beat the Raiders,

751
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 1: you know, like I'm just I know they were on

752
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: the schedule, but this is why I want to step

753
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: in here. Oh yeah, and they beat the Lions that

754
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: was probably their only one. And the Blue Jays are

755
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,240
Speaker 1: on the board too. I'll clutch it. I guess who

756
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 1: George Spring Kirk Gibson. I'm believing that's a big hit,

757
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: Like like you know, like the goal when your team scores,

758
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: what's the goal is to have that clean inning the

759
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: next inning, a shutdown inning.

760
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:17,479
Speaker 3: Yep.

761
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 4: And Yamamoto, who's been you know that doesn't give up

762
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 4: more than one run a game in a two out situation,

763
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 4: gives up the two out knock and it's three to one,

764
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 4: so there's life.

765
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 6: While remember James, Yeah, I remember we had that conversation Rob.

766
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 6: I think it was earlier this week where we were

767
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 6: saying George Springer like is I think it was a

768
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 6: foler fair maybe last year, I mean last year, last week,

769
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 6: but the point.

770
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 3: Was where is he ranking the pantheons of hitters?

771
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 6: And we said, you know, it was specifically with the

772
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 6: Blue Jays, but we all agreed, like, dude, he's up there,

773
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 6: this dude in Blue Jays astros. He just makes big hits,

774
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 6: and he's started around and had made himself a heck

775
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 6: of a breer. That's a big a heck of a

776
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 6: postseason career. I agree, And that's a big hit. It

777
00:37:58,960 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 6: really is.

778
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,399
Speaker 1: Like it it seems like, well it's still down three

779
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: to one, but if Yammoto comes out, you know what

780
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: I mean, and mows them down, you might be like,

781
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: this is going to be a long night.

782
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,359
Speaker 4: That's a clutch to out hitting.

783
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 3: Yes, you've glad he hits a two run home run.

784
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 3: Now you're back right back in it.

785
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 4: Yep. So there you go, big hit there.

786
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like Kelvin playing Buffalo and I get it.

787
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 1: Regular season compared to the playoffs. We can't play the

788
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: playoffs now, it's the regular season. So I want to

789
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 1: see I wasn't that impressed with them against Washington. No,

790
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 1: Jane Daniels right, Marcus Mariota, quarterback Mahomes had a couple

791
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,720
Speaker 1: of picks. You know, they scored what they have, twenty

792
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: eight points. But it wasn't like they you know, like

793
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 1: overwhelmed them or Washington turned the ball over a couple

794
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: of times, I think in the red zone where they

795
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,879
Speaker 1: had a chance to you know, get into the game

796
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: or be close to scoring. I wasn't that impressed with

797
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: that win, twenty eight to seven. They won comfortably, But

798
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: I want to see them against Buffalo and in Buffalo.

799
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: You heard Sean King earlier thinks that this could be

800
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: a wipeout for Buffalo up in Buffalo coming off a bye.

801
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 4: How will this matter to you?

802
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: Depending on the game if they get blown out, just

803
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: say they don't, you know, they get blown out in Buffalo,

804
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 1: would that just be a schedule game, you know what

805
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: I mean?

806
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 6: Where So I think they listen that this ain't the

807
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:23,879
Speaker 6: fifteen and two Chiefs in the sense of you can

808
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 6: waste one, right.

809
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:25,240
Speaker 3: They can't.

810
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 4: They can't, definitely not right.

811
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 3: So they have to win the game.

812
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 6: They should want to win the game, I should say

813
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 6: I still believe they lose their fine because again I

814
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 6: think they're treading in the right direction.

815
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 3: But they should want to win.

816
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 6: They should They should look at this and say, yeah,

817
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 6: we ultimately always beat them in the postseason, but it's

818
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 6: okay to smack little brother up even in the regular

819
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 6: season and say, nah close with no cigar. You'all cute,

820
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 6: but y'allin us. And that's to me how their approach

821
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 6: should be. And again, also because you want to just

822
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 6: continue to trend in this right direction. You want to

823
00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 6: get the reps going where she writes more. You want

824
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 6: to get the cottonuity of that offense explosive more. You

825
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 6: want to get the defense to continue to be dominating.

826
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 6: You want to find out if they can ever, ever, ever, ever,

827
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 6: ever have a running game. And again, to me, if

828
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 6: you're the Bills, you gotta show that man. Listen, if

829
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 6: Josh Allen is solid to good, can we win a game?

830
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 6: Because he has to be insane for them to win

831
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,439
Speaker 6: a game. The Chiefs have proven over the.

832
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 3: Last couple of years because last year Mahomes wasn't the greatest.

833
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 6: They went fifteen to two. Now all of a sudden,

834
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 6: he's gotten his mojo back. They're winning games, but they've

835
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 6: lost the games. And this last year where he's playing better,

836
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 6: Coret well. Now that they've got it going the last

837
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 6: about four or five weeks and can the Bills and

838
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,879
Speaker 6: this has been that. This is why I can't pick

839
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 6: them the Super Bowl. You want to you see, oh Man,

840
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 6: because I just feel like they were to go up

841
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 6: against the healthy and good ravens Lamar is just too much.

842
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 6: He can find out way to get done. Plus at

843
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 6: the time there's other guys. Dereck Henry can come to life.

844
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 6: They got tight ends that come to life. The defense

845
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 6: can make an opportunistic play. We already know. Patrick Mahomes

846
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 6: has been four and oh he finds a way. Is

847
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 6: it a Chargers team? Is it another AFC team? And

848
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 6: that's the difference with the Bills. They have to prove

849
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 6: that they are more well rounded team and they just

850
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 6: haven't been able to do that. In my opinion, it's

851
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 6: just Superman Josh Allen or nothing.

852
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 9: No.

853
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 4: I agree.

854
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,760
Speaker 1: I agree with you on that it's going to be interesting.

855
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,919
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to the game actually, and I'm doing

856
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: a good one. I'm into watching a game that I

857
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 1: can like you know, dig into and watch and not

858
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 1: just solely flipping around, you know what I mean. I

859
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: want to watch zero the minute a sixty minute game, right,

860
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: I want to watch the entire game. I want to

861
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 1: see what's going on on both sides here where Buffalo is.

862
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 1: Buffalo's kind of been under the radar when you say

863
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: that after the first couple of wins.

864
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's because rob their offense hasn't been as

865
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 6: good as you would have thought it would be. The

866
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 6: defense has had some weird games, some fluky games where

867
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 6: you're kind of like, all right, why did we lose

868
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 6: that one? Or why did you allow this other team

869
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 6: to be so close? Like the loss of the Falcons.

870
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 6: You know what was.

871
00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,760
Speaker 4: That that game? Yeah, that was weird, right.

872
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know that was a weird one. They were

873
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 6: in The Saints were in that game for a really

874
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 6: long time. As remember the Dolphins we talked about on

875
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 6: the air that day, think might because I think it

876
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,399
Speaker 6: might have been a Monday night game. The Dolphins were

877
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 6: in that game against the Bills for some time as well.

878
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 6: So they've had, even in their wins, some wins where

879
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 6: you're like, all right, that's a strange win, like you won,

880
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 6: but I didn't feel good about that. And I think

881
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,359
Speaker 6: that's why the Bills have kind of been I mean,

882
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 6: and they were getting dominated by the Ravens till the end,

883
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 6: you know what I mean, And they snuck that one out.

884
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 3: So I just think they haven't looked at that great

885
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 3: which is.

886
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 1: And if it was right and even in that game,

887
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: you know, if Derek Henry doesn't fumble, they don't win

888
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 1: that game.

889
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 3: That's That's what I'm saying.

890
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 6: I think that's the issue with the Bills is you're

891
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 6: just kind of like, and.

892
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 4: They gave a forty at home forty at home to

893
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 4: open the season. Let's not forget that.

894
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 3: I mean, La Marve be doing that.

895
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 4: But yeah, so all right, eight said it, but I

896
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 4: look forward to it.

897
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a good.

898
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,399
Speaker 1: One eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox A couple

899
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: of things.

900
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 4: Who needs it more?

901
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: The Chiefs to prove that what they're doing is is

902
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 1: definitely you know, real and not fugazy or is it

903
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 1: the Bills will kind of like they're kind of fall

904
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 1: off the radar, right, they fall off the radar a

905
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,279
Speaker 1: little bit. Do they need to do this so people remember, yes,

906
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: the Bills are still viable, They still have a chance.

907
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 1: They still trying to make noise, still trying to get

908
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. Where are you on this game?

909
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 1: Who needs to win it more? I think the Chiefs do.

910
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: I need to see if the Chiefs, who could easily

911
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: what if they lose? They would be five and four.

912
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 1: They'd have four losses, double the amount of losses that

913
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 1: they had from a.

914
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,280
Speaker 4: Year ago, double, which is crazy.

915
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,720
Speaker 1: In nine games, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox

916
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: eight seven seven nine nine six sixty three sixty nine,

917

Speaker 4: And you know what you need to do

920
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 8: Stick and stay unless you want the Chiefs to win

00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 8: every single year in the USFA
