1
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up,

2
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 1: straight Fire fan, It's mate, Jason McIntyre. Straight Fire for Wednesday,

3
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: October twenty. Kind of a wild Tuesday in sports. A

4
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: lot of fun things happening, a lot of bizarre things happening,

5
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: like the Lakers needing overtime against the Spurs. But no,

6
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: I cannot open with that. Yes, Lebron sat out. Interesting

7
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: line movement in Arizona Green Bay, the biggest Thursday night

8
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: football game of the year. Another Packers receiver gets covid.

9
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 1: Can't leave with that. I do have to mention ouf

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: the top. Mike Tomlin. Oh, Mike Tomlin, you gotta love

11
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: this guy. So yesterday on the pod, I said, I

12
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: don't believe this, Mike Tomlin, nonsense. Why not Pete Carroll.

13
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll makes so much more sense at USC. Blah

14
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: blah blah. I reached out to a former Heisman Trophy

15
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: winner at USC who will join the podcast tomorrow talk

16
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: about that. Um, good guest. You guys will love this dude. Um.

17
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin was asked about it on Tuesday, he said,

18
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: I don't have time for that speculation. I mean, that's

19
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: a joke. To be. I got one of the best

20
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: jobs in all of professional sports. Why would have interesting

21
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: coaching college football? That will be the last time I

22
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: address it again. Mike Tomlin on just an epic rant.

23
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: If you haven't seen the video, not only today but

24
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: moving forward, never say never, but never. Okay, anybody else

25
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: got any questions about college jobs? That's there's not a

26
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: booster with a big enough blank check. Mike. I mean,

27
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: Mike tom Ltd is just firing. He's got that like,

28
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: oh man, me against the world thing. And then I

29
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: did love this as he like Ajustice seat like he's

30
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 1: getting ready to get up and walk away. Anybody asking

31
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: Sean Payton about that, anybody asking Andy We read about

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: stuff like that, and it was like, oh, those are

33
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: barbs right there? Those are those? Are that shots fired

34
00:01:55,200 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: by Mike Tomlin. Nevertheless, I will maintain Pete Carroll may

35
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: way way way, way, way, way more sense. And I

36
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: had people coming after me on social media about it.

37
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: I get it, fine, he's seventy, But the likelihood of

38
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: him building Alabama West like he did about twenty years ago.

39
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: People forget it wasn't just usc as rock stars before

40
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: the NFL was in l a. It was seven straight

41
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: top five finishes. If the playoff existed, USC would have

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: been in the playoffs. I believe every single year. If

43
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: you look at THEIRS, their rankings and their results US,

44
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: he would have probably been in the playoff at least

45
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 1: five of the seven years, maybe seven of seven. The

46
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: option is there now. We would definitely have to get

47
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: younger assistant coaches who the same way Saban, who's in

48
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: the seventies, hired young with it hip new offense coaches

49
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 1: because Saban loves to play in the dark ages. Let's

50
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: run the football and play defense like that just doesn't work.

51
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: Recruits aren't gonna want to do that, so Saban adjusted

52
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: the recruits game. Alabama's on top. I will think there's

53
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: a chance there's a chance Pete Carroll could pull that off.

54
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: A couple of other notes before I get to the

55
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: big story, which is obviously Deshaun Watson and the chaos

56
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: that erupted late Tuesday. But I I told you guys

57
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: had a couple of NFL bets. I went with Cleveland

58
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: by three. I announced, I think I said that on

59
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: Yesterday's pod or Monday's Cleveland's down three and a half,

60
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: and I had Dallas by one the first bet I

61
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: made Sunday night. That's up to two and a half,

62
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,839
Speaker 1: so looking good. Arizona up to six and a half.

63
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: So things are moving my direction, although it's been spotty.

64
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: You know, I had the closing line value last week.

65
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: All over. The Eagles went from plus three to pick

66
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: and they lose. They get their teeth kicked in. Um

67
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: and just because I feel like doing a victory lap

68
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: because it's Wednesday, like I'm in a good mood. Um.

69
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: I said on Monday that the Chiefs playoff prospects not

70
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: looking great. There's a scenario where they missed the playoffs.

71
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: The schedule is tough. I still have to face the Packers,

72
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: still have to face the Chargers on a short week,

73
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: and remember that's traveling halfway across the country on a

74
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: short week. That's a tough travel spot. They got the Cowboys,

75
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: the Bengals, two games against the plucky Raiders. Well, pro

76
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: football focus comes out. Kansas City chance to make the playoffs.

77
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: That's not good for Patrick Williams and Andy Reid. Obviously.

78
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: You know, if they win Monday against the Giants, and

79
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 1: they should, I'm not betting that game, everything will be

80
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: fine in Kansas City. But I think the biggest story

81
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: in sports again, not the Lakers, not yet at least,

82
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: is this Deshaun Watson nonsense. And it started to get

83
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: me angry because I started getting texts from friends about

84
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson to the Dolphins. Is there any actionable gambling

85
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: hits we can make here? Any futures can make the playoffs?

86
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: Can they do that with the Shawan? I'm like, what

87
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: are we getting all excited about? Even if he comes

88
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: via trade to Miami, we don't know if he's playing.

89
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: And on top of that, and this is where it

90
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: gets really annoying. What if Miami makes the trade for Watson.

91
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: Let's say they go seven and ten, okay, and then

92
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: the NFL decides Watson suspended for next year. That's just punishment.

93
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: No suspending this year, We're gonna suspend it for next year.

94
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: I mean, is Miami maybe cannot risk making that trade,

95
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: have Watson for a couple of games and then not

96
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: have him next That's total insanity. And the mere fact

97
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 1: that that option is still out there to me screams

98
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: ain't no way in hell this trade is happening. I

99
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: don't know if it was Mike Florio, who got it

100
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 1: all started. But essentially we just there's just so much

101
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: still unknown about this. It got me frustrated, and you know, uh,

102
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: Rob was texting me. I had so many friends texting

103
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: with what this just Shaun Watson thing? And I'm like,

104
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: there's nothing happening, absolutely nothing, And of course Roger Goodell

105
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: then amplifies it. On Tuesday, He's giving some I don't

106
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: know State of the League address or whatever thing Roger

107
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: Goodell is doing, but he opens with, oh, yeah, yeah,

108
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: that all the investigation into Washington football team, the one

109
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: that got and fired. Yeah, we're not going to release it.

110
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: He just casually says that, and all these people come

111
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: back and the wait, wait, wait, wait, we gotta release something.

112
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: He's like, no, we need to protect those who came forward.

113
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: And of course then the people who came forward are like, hey, hey,

114
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: I'm over here. I don't care putting my name out

115
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: there reveal the investigation, and Goodell is just not gonna

116
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 1: do it. And again, I'm probably gonna throw out my

117
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: shoulder from patting myself on the back today. But when

118
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: Gruden was fired, it was painfully obvious that he was

119
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: a fall guy. He was they needed a scalp from

120
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: that investigation to protect an owner, because again, Roger Goodell

121
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: works for the owners. If you guys don't know how

122
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: the NFL works, he gets pay like thirty five million

123
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 1: a year. The owners protect him. He takes shrapnel on

124
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 1: the front lines for them, and they work in accordance.

125
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: Everything works great, and he has to serve them, and

126
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: he his job right now is clearly to protect Snyder

127
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: and Washington because if all of a sudden, Washington is

128
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 1: made to if Snyder's made to sell the team, that

129
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: opens up every other owner. Well, hey, you get in trouble.

130
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: I guess what. Billionaires have a lot of secrets. I

131
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: think you guys were aware of that. Millionaires, plenty billionaires

132
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: come on and if the NFL were to open things

133
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: up and say sorry, Daniel Snyder has to sell the team,

134
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: I'm sure a dozen other owners are instantly freaking out,

135
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: and you just you don't need that in the league.

136
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: And I'm sure that's what they're doing protecting Daniel Snyder.

137
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: So Goodell says, we're not going to release you know, what,

138
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: was it five emails? I forgot the six hundred fifty emails,

139
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: and they're just releasing none of the findings. Oh if

140
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: you want the findings, yeah, go ask Gruden what's going on?

141
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: Like that's basically what they're saying. Fox Sports Radio has

Speaker 1: within the I Heart Radio search f s R to

145
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: listen live. And so after he talked about that, naturally,

146
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: Goodells was asked about Deshaun Watson and the lack of information.

147
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: This is the exact quote Roger Goodell on Deshaun Watson.

148
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: There obviously are i'll call it legal approaches that are

149
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: being made either through civil cases. Obviously the police have

150
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: been investigating. Also, we don't have all the access to

151
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: that information at this point. We pride ourselves and not

152
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: interfering in that be cooperative as we can make sure

153
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: we get all the facts. But I think the process

154
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: is still ongoing and under that process is ongoing, and

155
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: we have enough data and enough information to be able

156
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: to make a determination on whether he should go on

157
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: the commission or exemplest. We don't feel we have that

158
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 1: necessary information at this point. Basically a word salad from

159
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell saying we are passing on this Houston Texans,

160
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: if you want to trade him, go do it. We're

161
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: not gonna say anything until we're forced to. It's pretty clear.

162
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: Ten criminal complaints, twenty two civil lawsuits. Remember this is

163
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 1: the guy who's it's almost disappointed think about it. Feels

164
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: like a different lifetime when Deshaun Watson was carving up Alabama,

165
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: Clemson and then going to the Houston Texans and getting

166
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: them to the playoffs. For whatever reason, he decided that

167
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: he wanted to start getting uh massages from many different

168
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: women that he picked up on Instagram and would fly

169
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: them into Houston and whatever. Um, it's disappointing Deshaun Watson

170
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,079
Speaker 1: as someone who does go to a musseuse regular regularly.

171
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: And I will admit this about three years ago. You know,

172
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: I like to try to stay fit, go to the gym,

173
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: work out, like one of my big fears is I don't.

174
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: I just don't want to get really overweight and heavy

175
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: and not be able to play sports. And um, I

176
00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: want to, you know, get you got one life, you

177
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: to enjoy it, look good and feel good. And when

178
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: I'm in shape, I feel great. And I had a

179
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: buddy who knew about this, this masseus in our area,

180
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: and you know, I would work out, but I'm not

181
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: one of those guys who would stretch afterwards for whatever.

182
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 1: I just can't go and like lay on the mat

183
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: and then stretch for five ten minutes. I just get it.

184
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: It's a waste of time because I feel like I'm young.

185
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: What do I need to do that for? And I decided, fine,

186
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: you know this massus, I'll go check this lady out.

187
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: And it was one of those massus is who you know,

188
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 1: little uh, the woman from Thailand who you know is

189
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: a tiny, petite woman, but she's super strong and the

190
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: massage is incredible. It's like when she's going to work

191
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: on your back, it's like she's got like four arms

192
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: just dry, you know, elbows all in and you just

193
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: all these knots come out. And I was like, holy cow,

194
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: that was amazing. So can I book for next week?

195
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: And for about three years now, I've been getting regular

196
00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: massages from the same woman. Like my mom comes in town,

197
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, Mom, you gotta go and get a massage

198
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: from this lady. You know, I've referred friends to this lady.

199
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: She go, you know, and I feel like on some

200
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: level and I do talk to the wife about this

201
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: a lot. And I don't know if I talked to

202
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: the dudes about this, but like helping others and just

203
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 1: being a good person, and I really feel like, man,

204
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: you know, I don't really help people out. I don't

205
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: really do anything tease, gambling tips that that's not really

206
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 1: helping people out. I want to be a good person.

207
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: And then I was reminded like, well, you know, Jason,

208
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: coaching kids in sports is helping people out. And hosting

209
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 1: a weekly basketball game for fifth graders and third graders

210
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: is helping people out. You're like doing stuff and helping people.

211
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: It's like, oh yeah. And then I went to my

212
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: masseuse this week and she reminded me like, Jason, you're

213
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: like one of my best customers. You've referred all these

214
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: people to me, and she starts rattling them off. I'm like,

215
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: I didn't even know they were still coming. Uh, that's awesome.

216
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: And I feel like I'm, you know, helping the lady out. Um.

217
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: And and it's you find him. It's like a barber, right,

218
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: you find a barber, you want to go to that

219
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,839
Speaker 1: same person, get the haircut. You know what you're getting

220
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: every single time same deal with a masseus. You go

221
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: to a masseus, she knows what ails you. You're playing

222
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: soccer this week? Okay, it's gotta be the calves, the quads,

223
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: the I T bands. Newsflash two, Dad's out there weekend Warriors.

224
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: I did not know what the I T band was

225
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: like five years ago. It's now like a muscle that

226
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 1: I need work on, like every single time if you're

227
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: into running and basketball and soccer and all this stuff.

228
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: But I've been getting massage just basically every other week,

229
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: sometimes every three weeks for three years. And I don't

230
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: try to throw around life changing too much, but I'm

231
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: not gonna lie. Getting a massage regularly is kind of

232
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 1: sort of life changing. It's an hour of bliss. You

233
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: just tune everything out. You're relaxed. You come out of it,

234
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: you're just like, oh wow, all that burden, all the stress,

235
00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: the work, life, family, everything to do list, holidays coming up,

236
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: all that stuff goes out the window. I recommend it

237
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: to anybody finding an awesome mssus and not one who's

238
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: going through the motions, one who actually cares and like, nos, man,

239
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: you got knots all over your shoulders, you must have

240
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: been lifted a lot, Yeah, and just going to work

241
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: on the knots like And that's why the whole Deshaun

242
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: Watson's story has me all twisted, because anybody who got

243
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 1: a massage doesn't want to go to a different person

244
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: every week. And I'm not rendering a judgment or a

245
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: verdict on Watson. I've seen none of the evidence, just

246
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: what's out there to the general public. It just seemed

247
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: a little odd, as it would to anyone. And I'm

248
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: sure I know that Shaun Watson has a uh, spotless record.

249
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: I've seen all the never been arrested, um, no police

250
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: incidents before all this stuff, and it was like, well,

251
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: he said, it seems like a good guy, you know,

252
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 1: Doabo Sweeney's you know, caped up for him a lot.

253
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: I think his girlfriend stood by him or fiance whatever

254
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: she is, Like, everybody thinks he's a good guy. But

255
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: it's just tough for me to wrap my head around. Yeah,

256
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a massage from like thirty different women

257
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: and several from out of state that I met on

258
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: Instagram d ms. So if I'm the Miami Dolphins as

259
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: bad as I want Watson, I'm gonna need some sort

260
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: of resolution here, Like Deshaun Watson goes, hey, what if

261
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: I say, let's settle out of court. Here's five million

262
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: dollars to the ten twenty whatever the number of women is.

263
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: Are we done here? If that's the case. Now, if

264
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: these women want to go and prosecute, I mean, I

265
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: don't know how the Dolphins can make that trade it

266
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: if there's just too much uncertainty. It's fun to talk about. Yeah,

267
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: Shaun Watson in Miami, Oh my gosh, Wattle Parker, Oh

268
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: that offense. Giseki like the offensive line as bad as

269
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: it is. Watson's used to that. He played in Houston forever,

270
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: you know, take pressure off the defense, which is bad.

271
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: And Deshaun Watson in Miami instantly would make the Dolphins

272
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: back into the wild card mix next year, no doubt

273
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: about it. Surely not better than the Bills, but with Watson,

274
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: I've got them better than the Patriots, that's for sure.

275
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: As good as Mac Jones has been. I know, they

276
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: just hung a fifty burger on my Jets, but yeah,

277
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: I mean Watson, remember he was in Houston, had nothing

278
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: on offense. The defense was atrocious despite J J. Watt,

279
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: and he still had them in the playoffs. So I

280
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: don't know, man, The Watson thing is just super super strange.

281
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: Florio at Pro Football Talk speculates some in league circles

282
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: believe it will be six to eight games for a

283
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: pattern of behavior that resulted in the lawsuits. And of

284
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: course everybody wants to reference the Ben Roethlisberger who was

285
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: never formally charged with a crime, um and he got

286
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: a suspension back in the day. Now, just to be clear,

287
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 1: Watson faces ten criminal complaints. It's one thing to have

288
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: a complaint, Uh, it's another to take it to the

289
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: next level, and you know, will he be officially charged?

290
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: We're not there yet, and that's a problem. Like I

291
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: just I don't know how Miami makes a trade. But

292
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: with the trade deadline within the next like seven or

293
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: eight days, I think that's all we're gonna be hearing.

294
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: Uh in the NFL, where it's pretty quiet around the

295
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 1: trade deadline, no big names, although Odell Beckham could spice

296
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: it up. Great note from Peter King, who, surprise, surprise,

297
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: will be a guest on this podcast soon. The Great

298
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: Peter King I had a note that Odell Beckham hasn't

299
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: caught a touchdown in fifty five weeks weeks. That's staggering.

300
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: There's a guy who in his first three years was

301
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: putting up Jamar Chase to Marti j mar Chase type numbers,

302
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: and now he's totally fallen off a cliff final NFL

303
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: note before I quickly finished on the NBA, if you

304
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: really wanted another bet for me, I think. I think

305
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm dumb enough to step into the in front of

306
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans strain and take the Colts at home,

307
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: getting what looks to be one and a half points.

308
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: And I do not like Carson Wentz and you know this,

309
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: but can can this continue for Tennessee? I know that's

310
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: not It's not like I'm sitting at a table and

311
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm waiting for the zero or the double zero to

312
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: show up on Roulette or fifteen reds in a row?

313
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: Is there going to be a sixteat That's not the

314
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: thought here, But from a mental perspective, Tennessee took down

315
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: Buffalo in what felt like a Super Bowl win. Then

316
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: they just smothered the hell out of Kansas City. You

317
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: know they're celebrating. The team is not that good. They're

318
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 1: not the d Look at the numbers. Defensively, they're not

319
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 1: a good team now. Of course, Uh, Derrick Henry has

320
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: owned Indie and I think the last four meetings he's

321
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: averaging like a hundred sixty yards, some ridiculous number. Indie

322
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: does have a very good run defense. I gotta check

323
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 1: the injury reports, but I think I might be might

324
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: be back in the Colts this weekend. Fox Sports Radio

329
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: and Uh, it's one of those strange things, but I

330
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: like what I'm seeing from Frank Vogel, Yes, Frank Vogel.

331
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: Early in the season, because folks Lebron didn't play. The

332
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: Lakers are playing one of the bottom feeders in the NFL, sorry,

333
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: in the NBA, in the San Antonio Spurs. And it's

334
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: one of these like, oh, it's gonna be a Russell

335
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 1: Westbrook game. We'll just ride russ Um and we'll wrest

336
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: Lebron and we'll get the win. And next thing you know,

337
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: it's like fourth quarter and the Aakers need a furious

338
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: rally to force overtime, and of course, led by Anthony

339
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: Davis thirty five and seventeen and Russ thirty three, ten

340
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: and eight. Now Russ thirty three points on twenty seven shots. Nevertheless,

341
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: Lakers get to win. Carmelo Anthony went from hero against

342
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: the Grizzlies, where he had I think like twenty six points,

343
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: a bunch of threes, one of seven shooting, but he

344
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: did play big minutes like now. The best thing I

345
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,920
Speaker 1: liked out of Vogel because they remember this is game

346
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: four of a D two. Lakers fans live and die

347
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 1: like it's Game seven every night. That ain't the truth.

348
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: Austin Reeves, the undrafted rookie from Oklahoma. And and it's

349
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,959
Speaker 1: funny because during the n c A Tournament, I had

350
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 1: a tweet Austin Reaves was basically playing um Gonzaga one

351
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: on five. Remember Gonzaga is the number one seed, undefeated,

352
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 1: and he was fearless, going right at Sugs, going right

353
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 1: at their best players. And yeah, I think he had

354
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: like twenty six or twenty eight points. He was awesome.

355
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: And I was like, man, this guy, this guy go,

356
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: we can to get you some buckets. Frank Vogel had

357
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: him on the court in the final five minutes of

358
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: a close game in his first week in the NBA. Undrafted,

359
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: Reeves ten points, hit a couple of threes. Um, Listen,

360
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,719
Speaker 1: he's not a great defender. We knew that. He's not

361
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: quite Alex Caruso, the show pony from the last couple

362
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: of years who hustled his ass off defensively and was

363
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 1: always on the ground and um kind of a playmaker

364
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: if you will, cutting and delivering timely passes. Reeves is

365
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,959
Speaker 1: not all of that. But he is a guy you

366
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 1: have to respect as a shooter to space the floor

367
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: and guess what they're gonna need that. So Lebron sat

368
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: out with a sore right angle. My guess is tonight

369
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: in Okay, see, the Lakers will sit a D who

370
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: kind of got banged up. Shocker played forty two minutes

371
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: against the Spurs. Spurs are one of his like seven

372
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: worst teams in the league. I think a D and

373
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: Lebron sit and they say, Russ, we can't lose a

374
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: game to Okay, see, can you go in us this

375
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: against your former mates? And then you get like this

376
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: will be like a Kent Bays Moore game where he

377
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 1: has like twenty one points or something ridiculous. Um, and

378
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: Avery Bradley plays well. And I know I've just spent

379
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: way too much time on this on the Lakers a

380
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: week into the season, but guess what this podcast number

381
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: one city for listeners is l A. So I have

382
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: to do some Lakers and I will quickly wrap up

383
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: the um. Golden State Warriors moved to four no with

384
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: a win over the aforementioned crappy okay se thunder Now

385
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: okay see led it to half and they got some guys.

386
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: Gildras Alexander had thirty he's good. The rookie Josh Kiddy

387
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: from the NBL. Yes I know the NBL well because yes,

388
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,159
Speaker 1: I own a team there, uh, the New Zealand Breakers. Um,

389
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: but this is not a good team. They started a rookie,

390
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: the kid Robinson Earl out of Villanova. They got Poku

391
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 1: who I You hear his name and you instantly think

392
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: like Poco Pikachu. That kind of nonsense, honestly, And he's

393
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: a tooth pick. But he's like a prospect is seven foot.

394
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: I think he's like nineteen years old. And their benches like,

395
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 1: did you wait a minute, Mike Mascala. Didn't he play

396
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: for like buck Now in the n c A tournament

397
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 1: like a decade ago. Yeah, that was him, all right,

398
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 1: he's like the eighth guy on. Okay, See, like they're bad,

399
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: the Lakers should be able to get a win over

400
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: them without playing heavy minutes for a d or Lebron.

401
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: In fact, I would just not even have them warm up,

402
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: have them rest. I mean Curry only played thirty two

403
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: minutes when you can. They won with Damien Lee and

404
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: uh Jordan Pool and Andrew Wiggins. Like it's all It's

405
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: gonna be all about game managing this year for the Lakers.

406
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: You got to manage the l A fossils. Make sure

407
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: nobody's broken down come playoff time, everybody's healthy and rested.

408
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 1: That's what it's gonna be all about. Also, I will

409
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: add that the Knicks beat the Sixers. Joel Embad, everybody's

410
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: favorite player. I have to get the shot at guys,

411
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: two of seven, fourteen points against the very imposing front

412
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 1: court of Mitchell Robinson, Obi Toppin, Taj Gibson. Yeah, life,

413
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: it ain't easy without Ben Simmons, they are two and two.

414
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: And I said, without Ben Simmons, there maybe the sixth seed.

415
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 1: We could find out sooner than later that this could

416
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: be could be a struggle for them. Now they get

417
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 1: Detroit with Nokaid cunning Hamp and then they get Atlanta,

418
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: Portland's Chicago, Detroit Chicago. Like when you're facing Detroit, which

419
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: might be the worst team in to leave an Okaid

420
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,679
Speaker 1: cunning Hamp this early twice, that's a good thing. But

421
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: Chicago's feisty. You know. I like the the undefeated Bulls,

422
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: last undefeated team in the East. I really like this team.

423
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 1: So what, we'll see what the Sixers are made of.

424
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: But I'm not bullish on them without Ben Simmons. All Right, folks,

425
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: there you have it, Wednesday's podcast in the Books. We

426
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 1: talked to you tomorrow
