Speaker 1: They are around the NFL podcast.
Speaker 2: California has been good to me.
Speaker 1: Let's hope it don't fall into the sea.
Speaker 3: Ah from the beautiful Vista Restaurant car from rgeous Formosa Beach, California.
Speaker 4: It's around the NFL.
Speaker 3: I'm Dan Hansis with heroes all over, Mark Sessler wearing
Speaker 3: the jacket by the way, Greg Rosenthal, and the lovely
Speaker 3: Colleen Wolf.
Speaker 5: Hey, everybody, it's the road show.
Speaker 6: I was so excited to see the jacket in person,
Speaker 6: and it's even more glorious. And I know that you
Speaker 6: don't like the attention on the jacket, but I stand
Speaker 6: by my whole thing. As I said before, I think
Speaker 6: I need one. I think John needs one. I think
Speaker 6: everyone should be at one.
Speaker 7: I would just sad from a from a weather note
Speaker 7: that it's it's overcast. It's a beautiful day by the sea,
Speaker 7: but it's windy and overcast. So the jacket is an exoskeleton,
Speaker 7: a layer of protection that I find attractive for myself.
Speaker 3: I think it's been a charmed life for that jacket,
Speaker 3: because even now you would think, oh, we're doing the
Speaker 3: show with the beach right behind us in the sun,
Speaker 3: and it's June now that Mark might be suffering for
Speaker 3: wearing LEVI.
Speaker 2: No, no, in fact, he needs it.
Speaker 4: It's it's tactical gear.
Speaker 2: Yeah, unbelievable.
Speaker 8: We're the ones that made the mistake here.
Speaker 9: Right If this goes on YouTube or social you know,
Speaker 9: you can check out our background. Right now, two men
Speaker 9: are playing paddleball. Love paddleball on the beach. Those are
Speaker 9: extra very different than pickleball. The lifeguard operations of Hermosa
Speaker 9: Beach right behind us. This is this is something.
Speaker 5: This is the for us. We like to do this show.
Speaker 3: We've done them in West Hollywood in the past with
Speaker 3: our former producer Ricky Hollywood, the Pride Cast. I think
Speaker 3: Erica in fact is going to be joining us or
Speaker 3: be at the venue. And we already have some esteemed guests.
Speaker 3: I just say Patrick Claybond, he just rolled through having
Speaker 3: a beverage from the newsroom. Noted Jets fan told me
Speaker 3: he didn't want Aaron Rodgers, but then came around on it.
Speaker 3: He's here, Kevin Danger hands is my brother Gonzo John
Speaker 3: Gonzalez rolling over here behind them, and there coming right
Speaker 3: on time on cue, Jason Somewalt, the voice of God
Speaker 3: for around the NFL.
Speaker 5: Greg gets all in front of us.
Speaker 9: It's very exciting. But you're the host. Does this give
Speaker 9: you any anxiety that we have to work all these
Speaker 9: people into the show and you're leading now that.
Speaker 2: Kind of covered it, Okay, Yeah, I don't need some
Speaker 2: reference them ever.
Speaker 7: Again, No, it's it's a cavalcade and you announced fully anyway.
Speaker 3: So Connie, here we are, and hopefully the sun comes
Speaker 3: out as this goes well and warms us up a
Speaker 3: little bit. But it's nice here to be by the sea,
Speaker 3: to be together here in the off season before things
Speaker 3: get wild and we're gonna talk some actual football. We're
Speaker 3: gonna have a couple of people that live in the
Speaker 3: area stop by as guests that you may know if
Speaker 3: you're an NFL fan, And.
Speaker 8: This is nice, you know what, it's nice to hang
Speaker 8: out with you guys.
Speaker 6: This is long overdue. There's a gaggle of guests that
Speaker 6: will be coming through. I love it like it's a
Speaker 6: and it's a Thursday too, it's a weekday.
Speaker 8: It's perfect.
Speaker 9: The Gentleman's Friday, I call off season Friday is what
Speaker 9: we call it.
Speaker 7: I don't see a single gentleman among us.
Speaker 6: It feels like the retirement edition of atn like once
Speaker 6: we retire, we just do the show at like local
Speaker 6: restaurants outside whenever we want total.
Speaker 7: Point will be picked off by some sort of walker
Speaker 7: by who was annoyed with our presence.
Speaker 2: Now you made me feel it's a prediction.
Speaker 4: There is a boardwalk.
Speaker 3: There's kind of like a walking path with the many
Speaker 3: seniors behind us.
Speaker 4: Right, there's we need to be afraid of.
Speaker 7: I just think they might think those people are a
Speaker 7: little showy?
Speaker 9: Was that a paid extra that I was gonna say
Speaker 9: that there's actually an actress over that brick wall that
Speaker 9: pops up every now and then that mark paid to
Speaker 9: pretend to be a female assassin and will take them out.
Speaker 7: Just skateboarded by us casually with a dog going to
Speaker 7: the same pace on a leash.
Speaker 2: I mean this is he's an extra as well at
Speaker 2: a pocket personally the budget for the show anyway.
Speaker 3: So yes, we're gonna have some fun with some guests.
Speaker 3: We're also going to hit on Greg's takeaways from projected
Speaker 3: starters briefly.
Speaker 7: Briefly, very briefly, Yeah, I mean extensively, Greg, I wanted
Speaker 7: to do briefly.
Speaker 9: I tried to get it. I tried to get it
Speaker 9: in a two minute seg last show, and you were like,
Speaker 9: we want more. You're like, if anything screams beach, it's
Speaker 9: projected starters.
Speaker 2: It deserves it deserves more, just not too much.
Speaker 9: Okay, good?
Speaker 3: You know, if you wanted to give it four minutes,
Speaker 3: I think we give it. What park seven eight six
Speaker 3: and a half.
Speaker 9: Six eight articles at about two thousand words each, So
Speaker 9: that's sixteen thousand words. I don't know the time, but
Speaker 9: quite out.
Speaker 5: Can you talk a how the saucage gets me?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Can you explain to me, Greg, if you pumped out
Speaker 3: sixteen thousand words for the series in the in the
Speaker 3: end of May, okay, and then you're also on a podcast,
Speaker 3: why would we dedicate four minutes to that.
Speaker 9: It's a fair point. I used to operate like, oh
Speaker 9: the written words. Some things work better on podcasts, some
Speaker 9: things are more fun. But you're right, we're out of ideas.
Speaker 3: All right, we're gonna get to that second, but first,
Speaker 3: let's get quickly caught up on the news.
Speaker 10: If you.
Speaker 3: Mark it is now June, heading into July and the
Speaker 3: hardest summer. I know you've been heading to the gym
Speaker 3: and you've been an active man looking in fact, looking right.
Speaker 3: How do you feel about your beach body heading into
Speaker 3: the south?
Speaker 2: Oh horrible?
Speaker 7: Like so much progress must be made and I have
Speaker 7: no motivation to even begin.
Speaker 8: WHOA, I'm in the same boat as you.
Speaker 9: More importantly, though, how is your what is it called
Speaker 9: parasocial relationship with Angel Calabresi? What was the lady's name
Speaker 9: who ran beach body?
Speaker 7: I believe you mean the trainer named Autumn Calabrese, who
Speaker 7: I do not. I have no relationship with her other
Speaker 7: than I respect her.
Speaker 3: It's a facial Parasocial wasn't really known word when we
Speaker 3: first learned about Autumn. Or that's exactly what Mark's relationship
Speaker 3: with her, even though it felt so intimate when you
Speaker 3: were first explaining.
Speaker 9: To you, I did not describe I gotta we gotta
Speaker 9: follow up. Has that like gone up in like a
Speaker 9: potty scheme, scandal or anything?
Speaker 2: She's in prison.
Speaker 7: I exited the almost scheme that is that is for sure.
Speaker 2: I don't know that to be fact. Autumn Calabriasi, do
Speaker 2: not sue me.
Speaker 3: Let's get into the news Mark, as a nod to
Speaker 3: you and Big LEVI. Let's start with the niners forty
Speaker 3: nine ers, Gentleman manager John Lynch said the team is
Speaker 3: quote incredibly encouraged by brock Party's recovery from elbow surgery,
Speaker 3: and he has this to say about the QB battle
Speaker 3: going into camp.
Speaker 2: This is courtesy of Sirius XM NFL Radio.
Speaker 11: We still remained very high on Trey and we wanted
Speaker 11: to bring in some more competition. We brought in Sam
Speaker 11: and and Sam's really you know, taken to the coaching
Speaker 11: and the structure that we can give him. So at
Speaker 11: the end of the day, we feel really good about
Speaker 11: that position. And yeah, I think I think Brock probably
Speaker 11: is the leader in the clubhouse, as we said, but
Speaker 11: we you know, it will be open for competition, and
Speaker 11: it's those guys opportunity to go earn that job.
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
Speaker 3: So Trey Lance, even though he's barely played Colleen, still
Speaker 3: a former number three overall pick who they moved heaven
Speaker 3: and earth to obtain, and somehow, as we enter training
Speaker 3: camp in twenty twenty three, the GM is on record
Speaker 3: saying the leader in the clubhouse is the mister irrelevant
Speaker 3: pick from the previous draft.
Speaker 4: If he's healthy, Brock Party.
Speaker 6: I can't imagine how John Lynch feels about this deep down.
Speaker 8: I'm sure like he sort of wins.
Speaker 6: Either way because Brock Party was such a gem that
Speaker 6: they found and was such a surprise, and that's what
Speaker 6: made it such a crazy story. But everything that they
Speaker 6: had done, to everything they gave up to get Trey Lance,
Speaker 6: and then the whole thing.
Speaker 8: With Jimmy G. How messy.
Speaker 2: That was.
Speaker 6: How he came out at the combine a couple of
Speaker 6: years ago and was like, Jimmy G. We're asking, we're
Speaker 6: taking calls on him, We're ready to go. Like, there
Speaker 6: has been such an interesting turn of events with the
Speaker 6: quarterback position, and now you have Brock Purdy, who I guess. Yeah,
Speaker 6: they're gonna have this open competition quote unquote, but they're
Speaker 6: in a good spot because now they have multiple quarterbacks.
Speaker 6: We think that can play. But with Trey Lance, it's
Speaker 6: just like you're still not sure what you really have.
Speaker 9: It's not surprising me that Sam Darnold's getting first team
Speaker 9: reps and they're gonna take Sam Darnald very seriously. I
Speaker 9: think the news here that he's already throwing. There was
Speaker 9: this scenario where he was gonna miss a big chunk
Speaker 9: of the season, and you never know with the offseason
Speaker 9: injury reports, but at this point, the fact that he's
Speaker 9: throwing and they're talking this optimistic. I think the feeling
Speaker 9: is the forty nine ers think they will have Purdy
Speaker 9: for the start of the season.
Speaker 7: I think they want Perdy to be the starter. I mean,
Speaker 7: he is the lead guy right now. And I think
Speaker 7: it's like there's stuck in that same world that we are.
Speaker 7: And it kind of reflects what happened with Jimmy g
Speaker 7: a couple of years ago when they first traded for him.
Speaker 7: They had that incredible was it five or six great
Speaker 7: game sample size where he looked like he had come
Speaker 7: from the heavens and brock Purty did the same thing.
Speaker 7: But it's like, is that who brock Party really is?
Speaker 7: And it's like they did mention though, I mean, who
Speaker 7: knows what if these guys are ever telling the truth,
Speaker 7: But I do think they sort of don't care what
Speaker 7: anyone else thinks. And they talk about the fact that
Speaker 7: like Purdy was not just Shanahan coaching him up left
Speaker 7: and right, that he operated in system out of system,
Speaker 7: that they went back and looked at all his tape,
Speaker 7: they felt extremely optimistic. So I think there's this hope
Speaker 7: that like, yeah, maybe you went and moved heaven and Earth,
Speaker 7: like you said Dan to get Guy A. But Lynch
Speaker 7: still drafted Guy B. And I mean it's not necessarily
Speaker 7: to his credit. Everyone in the league passed on forty
Speaker 7: two thousand times, but you got him. And I think
Speaker 7: that Purdy's this guy that like, if he can do
Speaker 7: what he did last year, you stick with him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think what Rock Party represents to John
Speaker 3: Lynch is basically a life raft. I imagine if he
Speaker 3: wasn't there and it was either this flash in the
Speaker 3: pan potentially two hundred and sixtieth pick coming off elbow
Speaker 3: surgery is healthy, or it's Sam Donald and then it's
Speaker 3: like everybody's getting fired potentially. So it's like they have
Speaker 3: a little bit of backup and Lance is there and
Speaker 3: we'll see if he gets an opportunity.
Speaker 7: I'll Shanahan feel unfirerable.
Speaker 2: At this point he should be.
Speaker 9: I mean, look at look at what they've done in
Speaker 9: the last couple of years, making the conference championship games.
Speaker 3: It's not you know, you don't look so hot, and
Speaker 3: you know, I like Sam Donald, but like things could
Speaker 3: be very grim if Perdy did not materialize out of the.
Speaker 2: Mist last year.
Speaker 6: It's also impressive that party avoided Tommy John surgery and
Speaker 6: is somehow maybe going to be available week one of.
Speaker 9: The regular I'm distracted though, by the fact that Gonzo
Speaker 9: just waved to a man in a tank top walking
Speaker 9: by with a handsome dog. Does he know? Did he
Speaker 9: know this man? Does he just have friends?
Speaker 6: His name is Kyle, and it's Cynthia's friend. And that's
Speaker 6: Cynthia's dog, Gordy.
Speaker 9: Wow, it's all very distracted because what a group of
Speaker 9: gentlemen here. I just want to jump in there on
Speaker 9: in this zonn Sandwich connective.
Speaker 2: Tissue to our own network. Right, very nice who said
Speaker 2: this podcast doesn't have sex appeal?
Speaker 5: Let's I like that.
Speaker 9: I like that.
Speaker 4: Keep that in.
Speaker 9: We're keeping that in a lot.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of chaos going on, and there is
Speaker 3: like a it's interesting we're taping this on a patio,
Speaker 3: like we said, outdoors with the beach right behind us.
Speaker 3: But we have a growing cast of people that we,
Speaker 3: let's be honest, like, we rather hang out with than
Speaker 3: be talking to microphones.
Speaker 2: How long are we doing this for? I don't know.
Speaker 2: Let's move on.
Speaker 8: Okay, what else do.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Mac Joones friend.
Speaker 3: He's uh, he's working out and he's you know, preparing
Speaker 3: for a new season with the Patriots and good news everybody.
Speaker 3: He is happy with the progress with Bill O'Brien, the
Speaker 3: new offensive coordinator.
Speaker 4: Here's what he had to say.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been really good.
Speaker 5: It's been normal.
Speaker 10: I think everything he's done so far, it's been the communications.
Speaker 10: The most important part in trust. I think it all
Speaker 10: starts with that. When you're with a new coach and
Speaker 10: he's done a great job and controlling the room, I
Speaker 10: feel like everyone's on the same page. Just got to
Speaker 10: continue to do it. It's it's a marathon, not a sprint,
Speaker 10: so we know that, and.
Speaker 3: It is that is amazing that the quarterback of the Patriots,
Speaker 3: you talk about subtweeting and like you know, read between
Speaker 3: the lines and you know.
Speaker 2: Just trying to figure out what he's really saying. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: the new offense score. It's normal now.
Speaker 9: And he's been doing that. It kind of makes me
Speaker 9: like Mac Jones more, who's a little milk toast, But
Speaker 9: I don't at some point last year he decided screw it,
Speaker 9: I'm just gonna less.
Speaker 3: Cynthia's dog we are trying to do a podcast is
Speaker 3: way more shut it down.
Speaker 9: I like that back Jones at some point decided like
Speaker 9: I don't care anywhere. I'm just gonna let Bill BELLI
Speaker 9: I'm gonna publicly let people know I'm frustrated, even though
Speaker 9: Bill Belichick is my coach and he's still subtweeting. But
Speaker 9: it does remind me of a time back in December
Speaker 9: of twenty twenty one when I was like, man, Max
Speaker 9: Jones might win Rookie of the Year and he ended
Speaker 9: up coming in second place from Rookie of the Year,
Speaker 9: and I'm like, hey, he looked like a pretty decent
Speaker 9: rookie quarterback. And if we're willing to throw out that
Speaker 9: non normal, abnormal year last year, actually there's some idea.
Speaker 5: You're to as him of twenty twenty two.
Speaker 9: You're throwing out a lot of it, and I think
Speaker 9: there's a chance he could be much better that I
Speaker 9: think it's fure reminded.
Speaker 7: I think it's fair to, if not throw it out,
Speaker 7: just be like, let's shelve it. And Mac Jones, who
Speaker 7: we saw from two years ago was well coached last year,
Speaker 7: was like, I get normal because it kind of reminds
Speaker 7: you of like the Nightmare on Elm Street films, where
Speaker 7: like youths are trapped in terrible dreams and it's like
Speaker 7: destroying their lives and suddenly that stopped and they just
Speaker 7: went back to having normal ninth or tenth grade years
Speaker 7: in high school.
Speaker 2: That would be nice.
Speaker 7: So that's sort of like mac Jones is going back
Speaker 7: to just let's get back to normality.
Speaker 9: But then there's Nightmare on Elm Street two to three.
Speaker 6: Probably this season for him reminds me of Trevor Lawrence Light.
Speaker 6: That's like a situation that mac Jones has gone through.
Speaker 6: Considering he started by saying it's normal, so like he's
Speaker 6: getting back to some type of normal situation.
Speaker 3: Just for context again, you're saying it's kind of like
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence Light. That was Urban Meyer, who was like
Speaker 3: an Atomics show and Bilik's team.
Speaker 5: Right crazy.
Speaker 6: Wait, Also, mac Jones said that Bill O'Brien is like
Speaker 6: a walking dictionary, which I feel like we should put
Speaker 6: out there.
Speaker 9: It's all a subtweet and it's all like perspective when
Speaker 9: Bill O'Brien seems normal, like that's a that's a problem,
Speaker 9: Like I'm excited for Bill O'Brien, the coach, but Bill
Speaker 9: O'Brien was kind of a hot mess and not normal
Speaker 9: at all as an executive.
Speaker 3: Finally in the news, and this is connected to the Patriots,
Speaker 3: because it always will be connected to the Patriots. Tom Brady,
Speaker 3: who is now in the process, I don't know if
Speaker 3: it's done yet, but he's agreed to join the Raiders
Speaker 3: ownership group. And we know that Jimmy Garoppolo drama going
Speaker 3: on right now with his foot surgery and the recovery there,
Speaker 3: and Brady and Josh McDaniels the connection they are going
Speaker 3: back could he ever play again? And he's doing the
Speaker 3: media rounds, and he was on a program connected to
Speaker 3: Sports Illustrated and he had this to say, I am
Speaker 3: certain I am not playing again. So I've tried to
Speaker 3: make that clear, and I hate to continue to profess
Speaker 3: that because I've already told people that lots of times.
Speaker 3: And he went on to say about his ownership stake,
Speaker 3: I want to be involved with the NFL for the
Speaker 3: next forty five years of my life if I last
Speaker 3: that long, all right, And.
Speaker 8: That's all forty five. He put a very specific number
Speaker 8: on it.
Speaker 3: He wants to live until one hundred, so he's gonna
Speaker 3: I think he wants to play till he's forty five,
Speaker 3: own a team till he's ninety, put out a good
Speaker 3: ten to twenty years. He might want to live to
Speaker 3: one ten and then croak.
Speaker 8: I think he could. I think he could definitely do it.
Speaker 5: He wants to live till one ten.
Speaker 9: There's a decent amount of people, and by deethon, I
Speaker 9: mean like more than twenty that are over one hundred
Speaker 9: and fifteen years old right now and alive in the world.
Speaker 9: And if anyone's gonna do.
Speaker 8: It, Greg has a Google doc.
Speaker 9: It's my guy, the Pharaoh, Tom Brady Pharaoh.
Speaker 2: Let's not jinxum though. That's you're putting a lot on
Speaker 2: the man.
Speaker 3: But I just want to say, now that Mark, we've
Speaker 3: read this line, he's saying it again, I'm not playing.
Speaker 3: I think it is time at least for our podcast
Speaker 3: to wheel out the wooden catapult from medieval times that
Speaker 3: we somehow were stored and.
Speaker 4: Fire this into the sun.
Speaker 7: This whole storyline there, it goes right into the orb.
Speaker 12: Wow.
Speaker 8: Okay to this, look at that trail.
Speaker 7: And along with that, when I read this, this this
Speaker 7: these quotes where I was before was on this place
Speaker 7: that I thought that Tom Brady and his announcing career
Speaker 7: was fictitious, that it would never occur, that it just
Speaker 7: was this figment, this thing hanging in the atmosphere is
Speaker 7: sort of a joke on us. But I doubt I
Speaker 7: think actually that I've tabled that, I think he's actually
Speaker 7: going to go through with that.
Speaker 2: He's not going to play again.
Speaker 7: I think he's probably at this point annoyed and obviously
Speaker 7: having to answer this question over and over and I'm
Speaker 7: done asking it personally.
Speaker 8: That's why people are asking.
Speaker 9: Into the sun in the sun.
Speaker 10: Ye.
Speaker 9: And to your point, he did mention he was looking
Speaker 9: forward to broadcasting on Fox next year in the interviews.
Speaker 2: We're out of his way to say that even that conversation.
Speaker 2: We will now fire into the sun, just to be safe.
Speaker 2: There it is. Now, it's done.
Speaker 3: All right, take a break, take a break, we wait
Speaker 3: for the sun to come out, and when we get back,
Speaker 3: we'll touch on Greg's projected starters.
Speaker 5: All right, here we are.
Speaker 3: Oh, another esteem guest has just rolled. Baby, can you
Speaker 3: even believe it? It's Ricky Hollywood, the legend Erica temposh jacket. Wow,
Speaker 3: she does, Greg, She carries herself with a certain confidence
Speaker 3: that you can't make it up.
Speaker 9: She cleans up. It's like, you know, she's got the
Speaker 9: very business like jacket on, so you think it's all business,
Speaker 9: but then they're ripped jeans and now she's gonna have
Speaker 9: fun too.
Speaker 2: There's only one Erica.
Speaker 3: Would you mind Erica jumping in for one moment? Just
Speaker 3: ask her a couple of questions about where she is
Speaker 3: in life.
Speaker 9: She just rolled right in.
Speaker 2: The starters.
Speaker 13: It's my Colleen, Thank you, thank you so much.

Speaker 2: Are they tracking what we? What we?
Speaker 13: There are people, there are people that track. There are
Speaker 13: people that I like.
Speaker 9: That quickly point out like I wouldn't actually listen. I
Speaker 9: wouldn't know.
Speaker 13: But yeah, no, I no, I can't.
Speaker 4: That's great.
Speaker 13: I'm not gonna lie to you guys.

Speaker 9: third annual pridecast here?

Speaker 14: thing I showed up. Would have been the straightest pridecast.
Speaker 2: Of all time. We discussed that.
Speaker 7: I'm glad.
Speaker 14: Yeah, no, I think it's a good thing that I
Speaker 14: that I showed up. But yeah, that's that's good. Are
Speaker 14: you guys talking about like what you're gay for or
Speaker 14: anything like that?
Speaker 9: Now that that was the one time segment, it didn't
Speaker 9: really work.
Speaker 7: We're doing Greg's projected starters.
Speaker 2: We've kind of we're just.
Speaker 9: We're having guests come in it is it kind of
Speaker 9: is all right?
Speaker 4: Ricky?
Speaker 5: Well, are we gonna hang out together after we finishes.

Speaker 3: here a second? But we got we got.
Speaker 2: To ask him about the Cardinals. Hey, how are you
Speaker 2: all right here?
Speaker 7: The Voice of God actually never discussed Greg.
Speaker 9: I think that would be a funnier show, a better
Speaker 9: version of the show.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, my forever friend, Jason, what's up, Bud?
Speaker 5: Thank you for coming out?
Speaker 1: Hey, thanks for having me.

Speaker 3: is always kind of cool.
Speaker 1: I mean, if I was I can't walk anymore, if I.
Speaker 9: Was gonna walk into the ocean and just let the
Speaker 9: sea take me away, the hat I would wear would
Speaker 9: be a completely black Arizona Cardinals at so I think
Speaker 9: you're well dressed for it.
Speaker 4: It's fourday morning as a fan base.
Speaker 3: That's before we were trying to just wrap over the
Speaker 3: show so we.
Speaker 2: Could all hang out.
Speaker 3: But we want to talk about what does it feel
Speaker 3: like as boots on the ground Arizona Cardinals fan entering
Speaker 3: this season?
Speaker 5: Like where what are expectations for you?
Speaker 2: Like? What do you want out of this season?
Speaker 15: I just I think there's there's a word. It's a violence,
Speaker 15: you know what I mean? Because I don't think we're
Speaker 15: gonna win. I don't think we're gonna We're not even
Speaker 15: gonna sniff like the playoffs.
Speaker 4: I just want to hurt people.
Speaker 15: I just want people to feel the way I feel
Speaker 15: inside on the outside.
Speaker 9: So like injuries or just losing to the Cardinals.
Speaker 4: Make not any broken bones.
Speaker 15: But I just, you know, everyone, I want to see
Speaker 15: Paris Johnson put somebody into the deck. All right, you're
Speaker 15: violence and I'm a happy man.
Speaker 7: Where are you on the Monty as vibe?
Speaker 15: Probably it's just north of the the other Monty who
Speaker 15: was who used to be the Phoenix Suns coach.
Speaker 4: Like I don't know about how I feel about either
Speaker 4: move right now, but we'll see.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean do you want a two and fifteenth season?
Speaker 15: Okay, if we're tanking that bad and they don't let
Speaker 15: Kyler play, and if that's the move, and if we're
Speaker 15: gonna go and try to replace him, if that's really
Speaker 15: the move, I think I have to embrace it. But
Speaker 15: there's a sight of me as like an actual fan
Speaker 15: of the game. I don't want to see that, you
Speaker 15: know what I mean? And I like Kyler. I think
Speaker 15: he's fantastic to watch when he's allowed to be as
Speaker 15: dynamic as possible when the when the line is strong.
Speaker 15: So do I want to see a power a power
Speaker 15: game with him at the helm?
Speaker 2: Yes? I do.
Speaker 15: Am I positive that a guy of his stature can
Speaker 15: be the key figure in the power game? I'm not sure.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure that you want him back when he's healthy.
Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, I don't know if you're gonna get that either.
Speaker 9: You've taken the job as the voice of the Around
Speaker 9: the NFL podcast and you've run with it. You've helped the.
Speaker 2: Show show, tried to steady.
Speaker 9: You really carried the live show in a meaning wonder way.
Speaker 9: It is great to see you before you leave for
Speaker 9: the East, Gust.
Speaker 15: That's good to see you too, man, try to get
Speaker 15: him back already.
Speaker 7: One little favorite, Like the first time I ever met
Speaker 7: you was with Dan at the Cozy and like we
Speaker 7: had talked. We were talking to like some side projects
Speaker 7: that we could together some yeah, back to debate club days.
Speaker 7: I believe it was things we could add to the
Speaker 7: debig club. And you had you had a little you
Speaker 7: had a little segment that you did called Walking with Giants.
Speaker 7: Could you could you just give us Christopher walking the
Speaker 7: Giants fan huge Eli Manning fan, Like, could you give
Speaker 7: us just maybe a couple of seconds of what how
Speaker 7: that would have gone had we ever aired it?
Speaker 1: Chris walking here, Walking with Giants, Eli Manning twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: greatest Quarterback and the nfowl were like an if L
Speaker 1: he was still playing.
Speaker 4: I don't know, that's it. It's trying to end it, Jason,
Speaker 4: everybody all right?
Speaker 5: Really, I knew, Hey, honnye.
Speaker 7: It's going to be harder and harder to get Colleen
Speaker 7: back into it, into the.
Speaker 9: I want to get everyone here, just Mick, get him
Speaker 9: in the mix.
Speaker 6: Too much longer, we're gonna look yeah, yeah, no sense
Speaker 6: going straight into the ocean.
Speaker 2: That's a second straight into the ocean.
Speaker 3: What moment in the last like three minutes, Why is
Speaker 3: everyone thinking about that?
Speaker 8: Because it's right there?
Speaker 4: All right, Greg, projected Starter.
Speaker 9: So we really are going to do this? I thought
Speaker 9: it would be fun because we got Clayban, Kimmy Checks
Speaker 9: has shown up from the FATI. I was just talking happening.
Speaker 8: It's fine, this is a good group. Or people get coming.
Speaker 8: I'm very distracted.
Speaker 2: Why don't we We'll do We'll just do a little
Speaker 2: bit here un projected Starters.
Speaker 4: Okay, what do we say six and a half?
Speaker 7: I mean yeah, it's like three and a half, four
Speaker 7: and a half.
Speaker 5: All right, three ty three?
Speaker 7: We were gonna do two. Now we're doing three. So
Speaker 7: you are get the expanded edition?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 5: What is who do you sneaky love?
Speaker 9: After doing Projected Stars Dolphins? I don't know if that's
Speaker 9: really I feel like they're like a top five roster,
Speaker 9: top five coaching.
Speaker 7: You you called them like essentially across the board, ready
Speaker 7: to essentially morph into a Super Bowl contendent.
Speaker 9: With that question, I feel like it if two is healthy,
Speaker 9: I don't see what any reason. The offensive line maybe
Speaker 9: isn't like amazing, but there's pretty good continuity. But I
Speaker 9: like backup starters everywhere, Dolphins, and then the Bengals, which
Speaker 9: is it's obvious enough, but the Bengals continuity, like, yes,
Speaker 9: we know the offense, but the defense is set up
Speaker 9: in a way that I really think they couldn't remind
Speaker 9: you of the early aughts Patriots, where they can change
Speaker 9: what they do on a week to week basis because
Speaker 9: they have so many guys who can do so many
Speaker 9: different things and have been in the system for so
Speaker 9: long that they can do so many different things, and
Speaker 9: then a coaching staff can actually do that.
Speaker 6: Sorry, a bug just like flew into my mouth. I
Speaker 6: feel like I'm really high.
Speaker 8: Who's a fraud? That's what I want to know.
Speaker 6: Who's like, you're just not buying and everybody is into them.
Speaker 9: I feel like the Jaguars are just rolling back the
Speaker 9: exact same team, which I understand because they made the
Speaker 9: Divisional playoffs, Like they spent all that money two years ago,
Speaker 9: and you can't spend all the money two years in
Speaker 9: a row. But the defense, defensive rosters like not that good.
Speaker 9: I don't know, I'm not that in love with the
Speaker 9: Jaguars maybe doing it all again. They were kind of
Speaker 9: a mediocre team that had a couple of things go
Speaker 9: well for them. They're in a bad division, and like
Speaker 9: they could still be stuck in that mediacuc So if you're.
Speaker 7: If you want to if you took a couple of
Speaker 7: months off to go actually pursue other activities in your
Speaker 7: life and you want to plug back into where teams are, I.
Speaker 2: Would read this. It's it's eight divisions, and.
Speaker 7: It's a bit of a project to read all of them,
Speaker 7: but it is educational. Well, no, it takes time, but
Speaker 7: like maybe you do one two every day, but like
Speaker 7: you will learn a lot.
Speaker 2: And I came away.
Speaker 7: Commanders who we always essentially just rip on left and right,
Speaker 7: and we know that the ownership has been apocalyptic mess
Speaker 7: for ages. But you talked about their roster as being
Speaker 7: one of the more complete rosters in football.
Speaker 2: Obviously the quarterback is the situation.
Speaker 7: But outside of that, like they look like as about
Speaker 7: as solid as any team around.
Speaker 9: They look like a very normal team where there's not
Speaker 9: like any weaknesses, Like they have decent players at every
Speaker 9: single position. They make sense to me. I feel like
Speaker 9: I take less away from like which team looks good?
Speaker 9: Which team looks at more situations, like your eagle is
Speaker 9: a couple of situations popped in my mind where I
Speaker 9: think everyone thinks Rashad Penny, DeAndre Swift, like those are
Speaker 9: the guys in fantasy for instance, and like Kenny Genwell
Speaker 9: has been there. He got a ton of carries in
Speaker 9: the Super Bowl. He wouldn't surprise me if he out
Speaker 9: touches both of those guys, and he's been there. They
Speaker 9: drafted a guy, Sidney Brown at safety who didn't get
Speaker 9: a lot of attention, and it wouldn't surprise me if
Speaker 9: he ends up playing more than Nolan Carter and Nolan
Speaker 9: Smith and Jalen Carter their first round picks this year
Speaker 9: because the opportunity is there and they love him. They're
Speaker 9: kind of talking about him as the next I don't
Speaker 9: know who fannga type guy.
Speaker 6: I noticed that in What was It Your Panthers? Right
Speaker 6: up about the running backs, how you wouldn't be surprised
Speaker 6: if Miles Sanders didn't really get a ton of run
Speaker 6: in the starting spot.
Speaker 9: I think he would be the starter, but I wouldn't.
Speaker 9: They're one of those teams there's different spots where it's
Speaker 9: like we're going to add to the mix in August.
Speaker 3: What South in general is what is their team. You
Speaker 3: always seem to kind of ride the Saints and assume
Speaker 3: the best from them. Are you coming high on the
Speaker 3: Saints a show?
Speaker 9: I'm not, and I'm surprised a lot of people. Are
Speaker 9: The Falcons struck me doing this that like they're really
Speaker 9: gonna roll there with Mac Collins as their number two
Speaker 9: receiver and like no one has, they are built like
Speaker 9: a nineteen eighties team. Mark always wants nineteen eighties football,
Speaker 9: like they are nineteen eighties.
Speaker 7: You talked about them kind of being shotguns out of
Speaker 7: nineteen eighty five, and I totally agree. I don't think
Speaker 7: there there's a team that reading through all these that
Speaker 7: you seemed higher on, and tell me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 7: I know there's a lot of trust in the Chiefs,
Speaker 7: but the Cincinnati Bengals seem to be the team that
Speaker 7: just stood.
Speaker 2: Out to you.
Speaker 9: They are and they lost some players too, like p
Speaker 9: Ryan stuck out to me as a guy who might
Speaker 9: be starting for the Broncos over Javonte Williams and getting
Speaker 9: all the run. But yes, I feel like the Bengals
Speaker 9: are set up. It's not about like the window closing,
Speaker 9: because I think they will be around, but they feel
Speaker 9: a little bit like my Boston Celtics were this year
Speaker 9: that like everything was set up for them to do it.
Speaker 9: It doesn't mean that you are going to do it,
Speaker 9: but this is their year to do it, and maybe
Speaker 9: the expectations and just running it back over and over
Speaker 9: to get to them, and they choke like my boss.
Speaker 6: I also pointed out or I took this out of
Speaker 6: your NFC West column, that you like the Seattle roster
Speaker 6: better than any team in the NFC North and NFC South.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 6: I know I shouldn't be surprised because Gino, but still
Speaker 6: you're pretty high on them.
Speaker 9: There's like it's it sucks when you get stuck in
Speaker 9: a in a division, like any team should want to
Speaker 9: be one. To be in the NFC North or NFC
Speaker 9: South right now or a FC South, you'd probably win it.
Speaker 9: That's that might be the third best roster in the NFC. Seattle, Philly,
Speaker 9: Dallas would be my top two and then maybe Seattle,
Speaker 9: maybe San Francisco like they have stars, but uh, they're
Speaker 9: pretty short at offensive line, cornerback. I'm feeling too dorky.
Speaker 9: This is not a beach projected starter thing.
Speaker 2: I think it's informative. I think it's a nice little
Speaker 2: uh on the this is our beach read.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's our beach read.
Speaker 9: It's a very weird Ravens team. I'm throwing another one
Speaker 9: in there. Like they have no pass rush. Like they
Speaker 9: have They're not very imposing on the defensive line at all,
Speaker 9: but they're deep at receiver. It's like the opposite of
Speaker 9: the Ravens. You feel better, I am.
Speaker 7: That's I'm a beach guy.
Speaker 9: I mean you don't. You don't look at me and
Speaker 9: you think beach guy. But pure hours on the beach.
Speaker 9: I think I'm clocking all you guys, maybe by a
Speaker 9: good distance. In my Los Angeles went to the beach.
Speaker 9: I'm a solid once or twice a week beach guy.
Speaker 2: What are you doing on the beach though?
Speaker 5: That matters too.
Speaker 9: It's a lot of playing football with Walker. He just
Speaker 9: wants to like kind of run around. It's a lot
Speaker 9: of walking. It's a lot of sitting, a lot of
Speaker 9: walking with Walker, a lot of walking, a lot of football,
Speaker 9: a lot of football.
Speaker 3: So you never can get too far from ball though.
Speaker 3: See that even on the beach, you ever go into
Speaker 3: the sea, float here and there, but it's cold.
Speaker 9: Pacific's gold Man that's what they don't tell you about
Speaker 9: moving out here. Atlantic Ocean kind of warm, I mean,
Speaker 9: at least warm enof the Atlantic, ISI cold arrow down
Speaker 9: on Pacific.
Speaker 3: You're just telling you anything else from the projected starter's
Speaker 3: mark that jumped out to you.
Speaker 7: I would say this, it's an over arching sort of
Speaker 7: bird's eye. But in the run of the show, the
Speaker 7: AFC North has always featured typically two trash bag operations
Speaker 7: that are just floundering, And this is the best AFC
Speaker 7: North we've ever covered by far. Every one of them
Speaker 7: is a playoff contender. I just wonder if they'll all
Speaker 7: eat each other up.
Speaker 9: I agree it's something will go wrong for one of them,
Speaker 9: but I think like they could be four of the
Speaker 9: top twelve teams in the NFL.
Speaker 3: I think the East End and the North are similar
Speaker 3: like that, and of course and then you have in
Speaker 3: the West the Mighty Chiefs are there and it's it's
Speaker 3: going to be very interesting in the AFC the NFC.
Speaker 3: It feels like when you're doing this that I feel
Speaker 3: like this that in general everyone's under the impression that's
Speaker 3: just a wide open conference with not a lot of superpowers.
Speaker 2: Is that come through again? When you do that.
Speaker 9: I feel like the Eagles and the Cowboys are pretty awesome.
Speaker 9: I mean, the Cowboys need their first two picks to
Speaker 9: hit in a way that most teams don't. Mazzie Smith
Speaker 9: starting probably what is it, schoon mocker, They're tight end
Speaker 9: they could use to start. But other than that, like
Speaker 9: the Cowboys are pretty loaded and the Eagles are the
Speaker 9: most loaded. I mean, the Eagles are still to make.
Speaker 3: Everyone's going to pick the Eagles, and I know that
Speaker 3: could be an issue, Connie, I don't like that, but
Speaker 3: I feel like that's where this is gonna come, uh
Speaker 3: early September August when picks are coming in, because the
Speaker 3: Niners people will be scared of the Niners, the quarterback situation.
Speaker 3: The Cowboys people will be scared of the Cowboys because
Speaker 3: to the Cowboys and things never get where they need
Speaker 3: to be. So it's gonna be heavy heavy Eagles talk.
Speaker 2: Going into Week one.
Speaker 7: I don't love that, how how top heavy the NFC
Speaker 7: is and not very just like a couple with them.
Speaker 9: I picked them to win the Super Bowl last year.
Speaker 9: I think I'm just gonna stick with them. I wonder
Speaker 9: if everyone will not pick the Lions because it's like
Speaker 9: you are around it so much that people will try
Speaker 9: to be cool and make the counterpick. But I'm sticking
Speaker 9: with the Lions. They're kind of eagles. Like the Lions
Speaker 9: with like all their linemen, like eight linemen. You can
Speaker 9: roll in and out.
Speaker 2: I see it.
Speaker 7: By the way, I see Andrew Cilliano just coming down
Speaker 7: the bar.
Speaker 2: It's all happening. I think he's rolling right behind towards us.
Speaker 9: I think we need to get more people.
Speaker 5: In both yeag, just relax for Christ's sake.
Speaker 8: Relax, one driver per car.
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 3: Here he is Andrew so sillyano of NFL Network and beyond.
Speaker 4: What's up, Bud? Welcome, see you boys. Welcome to my neighborhood.
Speaker 4: This is your hood.
Speaker 16: Yeah, I'm glad you guys came down here. Welcome to
Speaker 16: a cloudy day June gloom. Don't we pay enough taxes
Speaker 16: for more sun day on the beach.
Speaker 9: I think of you just as a suit and tie man,
Speaker 9: you know, but I like you in this.
Speaker 4: Thank you beach.
Speaker 3: Hey, you guys all, I don't see you as a
Speaker 3: suit and tie guy.
Speaker 9: That's literally how I see him when I see him
Speaker 9: right across from us.
Speaker 7: Do you think Reggie would be a little strange. Had
Speaker 7: he showed up here in a suit and tie?
Speaker 9: No, I like it. I like it. You live right
Speaker 9: near here, I do.
Speaker 4: I walked here and this uh.
Speaker 16: I was walking down here, and I realized because I
Speaker 16: grabbed the Aviator Nation sweatshirt on the way out, I
Speaker 16: don't get it free on the way out the door.
Speaker 16: And I realized, there could This is the most South
Speaker 16: Bay uniform ever. I have you already sweatpants on and
Speaker 16: an Aviator Nation. It's like I'm a cliche. It's pathetic.
Speaker 9: I love it. I love it. I love being a
Speaker 9: beach guy.
Speaker 3: And this is like you do your your running around
Speaker 3: this area like this is your this is your world.
Speaker 16: So we're we're on the strand right here in Hermosa
Speaker 16: and there's the Hermosa peer right there and the hands
Speaker 16: about a you know, a mile point one point three
Speaker 16: miles up. And I generally listened to your podcast. Matter
Speaker 16: of fact, I did this morning breaking down DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 16: and and other things and fly on the wall stuff
Speaker 16: while running this strip right here at one point seven
Speaker 16: five speed. So right now, that's right now, your voice
Speaker 16: is in my head. I don't have to do today.
Speaker 16: I wanted to power through the podcast before it came on.
Speaker 16: Your voices in my head sound like you are hammered
Speaker 16: and you are slurring your words.
Speaker 3: Yeah that I I could ride with somebody saying they
Speaker 3: do one point you know, actually.
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 4: It was?
Speaker 2: One two five?
Speaker 5: It was on seven five is borderline offensive?
Speaker 4: It was one five, not one seven.
Speaker 9: I can't imagine how annoying my voice sounds in one
Speaker 9: point seven five. It's tough enough, how is it? In reality?
Speaker 4: I think you guys sound great?
Speaker 3: Are you on board with speaking of our last episode,
Speaker 3: are you on board with temporarily the general manager of
Speaker 3: Denver Broncos now going by the name Kevin Saunders, just
Speaker 3: to eliminate any uh you know, confusion between the head
Speaker 3: shirts and the.
Speaker 4: Gym, I mean the patent Peyton Peyton Patten.
Speaker 3: Going maybe on the network NFL Plus side, is that
Speaker 3: something we could do?
Speaker 16: We are back for mini camp shows next week on
Speaker 16: the Plus. We're actually doing them. I just found out yesterday.
Speaker 16: I don't think this is a trade secret from your podcast.
Speaker 9: Chris Westling podcast, do it? We were tall? We are
Speaker 9: taping around that and what interesting we weren't on those
Speaker 9: days anyway, So it all worked out.
Speaker 16: So I'm speaking of what we're wearing. I think we
Speaker 16: might go Plus Golf shirts next week.
Speaker 2: You can't suit in the Chris Westing don't.
Speaker 16: I don't know if that's been cleared up the food
Speaker 16: chain they don't.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 9: I've never seen the Plus Golf shirt. I do.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 10: There.
Speaker 16: I'll say this, the Plus hoodie might be the most
Speaker 16: comfortable swag they've given us in a long time. Did
Speaker 16: you guys get one in the locker rooms?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 13: Uh?
Speaker 2: Well this is awkward. No, we got nothing at all.
Speaker 2: Answer No, I don't know. I think I think that
Speaker 2: it's it's a company.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you're a man that famously is watching all
Speaker 3: the action every Sunday, and so you're on top of this.
Speaker 3: What is the team or division that you're most amped
Speaker 3: to be uh checking in for regular updates?
Speaker 4: I do think it's it's the low hanging fruit here.
Speaker 16: But the AFC East obviously with Rogers there and and
Speaker 16: the Bills reaking of desperation and like Thatking of despot
Speaker 16: to uh to a injury and fifth year option conundrum
Speaker 16: and what happens if Tua gets hurt? Would Tom Brady
Speaker 16: sell his shares in the Raiders to go to the Dolphins.
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm making this up now.
Speaker 16: But they already gave up They already gave up the
Speaker 16: first round pick. Why don't they just go sign him?
Speaker 16: They already paid for him, right, Well, I'm just making
Speaker 16: it would be tough to sell.
Speaker 9: Our fan producer sitting in here, Eric is shaking his
Speaker 9: seat at You're saying they're desperate. You don't think, Well,
Speaker 9: they didn't act like a desperate team. They didn't do
Speaker 9: that much this offseason relatively. I actually like certain things
Speaker 9: about their team. I like their backfield a lot, the
Speaker 9: way it all mixes together. Four guys who are all good,
Speaker 9: pretty good. But they didn't do that much.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing, and let me ask you this, Andrew,
Speaker 3: there's a difference between urgency and desperation.
Speaker 4: You think it's crossed.
Speaker 5: They've crossed the rubicon and entering twenty twenty three.
Speaker 16: It's a fair point. And I am prone to hyperbole,
Speaker 16: but look at it this way. If if they don't
Speaker 16: make it there this year, I mean, they bowed out
Speaker 16: in pretty awful fashion. You were emotionally exhausted. I understand
Speaker 16: how and why they lost to the Bengals, but it
Speaker 16: leaves a bitter taste. John McDermott takes over the defense,
Speaker 16: so there's now even more on his shoulders. You guys
Speaker 16: know this. There is nothing worse than the sports radio
Speaker 16: cliche who has the most pressure? God there Like, there's
Speaker 16: no worse topic bar on television than who has more pressure?
Speaker 2: Just shut up?
Speaker 16: Everyone has pressure, Like anybody can get fired at stop
Speaker 16: moment when you lose, right, That's how this business works.
Speaker 16: But if the Bills don't make it to the Promised
Speaker 16: Land yet again, this year, another year older for Josh Allen,
Speaker 16: another year closer to retirement, and it's hard to come
Speaker 16: back from an injury at that age. For Von Miller,
Speaker 16: do we face another off season of vague Stefan digs
Speaker 16: discontent on Twitter? Something has to change there. So yeah,
Speaker 16: I do think there is a sense of desperation in Buffalo.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I agree with Von. You might not be back
Speaker 9: to like week five or six, by the way he
Speaker 9: threw that out there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and yeah, Diggs is a mere curial guy and
Speaker 3: they've been knocking on the door for so many years now.
Speaker 3: You do get the feeling that Orchard Park could go
Speaker 3: up in flames. If this is a disappointment.
Speaker 7: I got to ask you because we just talked about
Speaker 7: the AFC North too, where like it suddenly feels like
Speaker 7: you've got, for the first time in a long time,
Speaker 7: not one or two of those teams that are not vile,
Speaker 7: but four potential playoff teams. And you're a Browns fan.
Speaker 7: We've always connected on that. I see Andrew in the
Speaker 7: office all this pass publics with that.
Speaker 9: Are Browns fans now like coming out of hiding after
Speaker 9: the misery, I can jump.
Speaker 16: I don't think there were that many that actually that
Speaker 16: actually went away.
Speaker 4: I know some did well, and I respect them. That's
Speaker 4: why I think.
Speaker 7: It's I think they put the fans in a tough spot.
Speaker 4: They did. I totally agree with you. I want are
Speaker 4: you ever going to come back?
Speaker 7: I like, I know, I get a lot of tweets
Speaker 7: saying that because I'm kind of coaxed into well, you're
Speaker 7: a fan against Like, I really haven't changed my stance.
Speaker 2: I can.
Speaker 7: I'm interested in the team in general, just because I
Speaker 7: think at this point I'm gonna ask you this, it's
Speaker 7: think a lot of people are sleeping on them because
Speaker 7: of what's happened to them and it's it's tougher to
Speaker 7: discuss them. You're not wanting to project them the same
Speaker 7: way you fascinate over other squads, necessarily, but the Browns seem.
Speaker 2: Pretty complete all over the or.
Speaker 7: Do you think that they are legitimate division winning candidate?
Speaker 16: I do, But it's also an amazingly tough division. And
Speaker 16: I do think the Steelers will be better. I think
Speaker 16: the offensive line will be better. And I think Pickett
Speaker 16: remains to be seen how much better he will be
Speaker 16: in year two, but you know he I assume he
Speaker 16: will be better. I think with the Browns there's gonna
Speaker 16: be a Jim Schwartz honeymoon in which the defense plays
Speaker 16: with its hair on fire and and it creates more sacks,
Speaker 16: more turnovers and plays better. I still think they are
Speaker 16: in need of help on the defensive lines, and Arias
Speaker 16: Smith helps a lot. If he stays healthy, he's going
Speaker 16: to be hungry and contract motivated. I still think there's
Speaker 16: an issue even with Dalvin Tomlinson a defensive tackle, particularly
Speaker 16: with depth so the front seven, even with Miles Garrett,
Speaker 16: it's amazing to say. I think it's a bit of
Speaker 16: an issue linebacker guys. Everyone's coming off of injury. Everybody
Speaker 16: coming off of injury.
Speaker 9: I thought Okermo is gonna be a superstar and he kind.
Speaker 4: Of another guy coming off of injury yeast year.
Speaker 2: Swartz, though, I.
Speaker 4: Think, I think he played amazingly well's first year.
Speaker 16: He couldn't say healthy last year than Anthony Walker got hurt,
Speaker 16: than Taki. Taki got hurt when playing out a position.
Speaker 16: He was really playing well the second half of the year.
Speaker 16: I do think they are legit, But the question is
Speaker 16: is is Deshaun gonna play well? That there's to me,
Speaker 16: there's no bigger question mark in the NFL this year,
Speaker 16: And again hyperbole.
Speaker 9: I agree.
Speaker 16: If Deshaun Watson can return to eighty percent of his
Speaker 16: form free suspension fakes this like sat him down for
Speaker 16: the year in twenty twenty, then they are, yes, a
Speaker 16: legitimate AFC.
Speaker 4: I think I.
Speaker 9: Would like a little Swartz swarts comeback season. Jim Schwartz
Speaker 9: really hasn't been in the mix lately. Let's get some
Speaker 9: Schwartz bombs.
Speaker 4: Oh Schwartz, Yeah, Schwartz is good.
Speaker 9: I'm just saying like he mixes it up. He mixes
Speaker 9: it up with immediate there's as like Hellinoya's players. Yeah,
Speaker 9: Schwartz is good, Shorts is good.
Speaker 2: You know, he's kind of like Greg Williams, but just
Speaker 2: not you know, enough less.
Speaker 9: Yeah, but he's a little villain.
Speaker 7: He's just a tangible villainy to Greg Williams.
Speaker 9: He's like Greg Williams, except he always had a cover
Speaker 9: blurb on Football Prospectus every year Football Outsiders. So he's
Speaker 9: like a little bit of a nerd. But he was
Speaker 9: one of those guys the book I read, Well, I'm
Speaker 9: Making Game Plans Jim Schwartz, two thousand and seven.
Speaker 16: But I remember in the I can't remember which job
Speaker 16: he might have been interviewing for the Bears job in
Speaker 16: the nineties. I was in Chicago, and I remember somebody
Speaker 16: in that building told me at the time that when
Speaker 16: he interviewed, they were blown away by his whether you
Speaker 16: want to call it an analytics like presentation, but in
Speaker 16: the in the late nineties, yeah, his presentation the I'm
Speaker 16: a little bit smarter than you, I'm ahead of the
Speaker 16: game presentation.
Speaker 4: So he's been that guy.
Speaker 7: He was one of six little nerds back in the
Speaker 7: Cleveland Browns regime days.
Speaker 3: And finally, Andrew, before we let you go and we're
Speaker 3: going to wrap the show up soon too, because we
Speaker 3: just want to hang out, buddy. But dating in the
Speaker 3: South Bank, what are some tips?
Speaker 2: It's a little shaking their heads.
Speaker 16: It's so difficult, a little bit of that older crowd,
Speaker 16: which I'm okay with. It's not the it's not the
Speaker 16: younger Santa Baca of Venice, West Hollywood crowd that I
Speaker 16: was used to. I'm also not younger anymore.
Speaker 9: Right, it's that rude.
Speaker 16: But that seems to I'm closer to fifty than I
Speaker 16: am to forty.
Speaker 4: So let's let's cut the crap.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 3: Pesh's mom played by h Marty Scorsese's real life mother.
Speaker 3: You know, they're sitting or eating some pasta. There's a
Speaker 3: dying guy in the trunk. But she's like, why don't
Speaker 3: you meet a nice girl? You settled down, have a
Speaker 3: nice girl. Let's do it. Let's settle downt's find a
Speaker 3: nice woman. Okay, bring around the show. We'll give her
Speaker 3: the seal of approval.
Speaker 5: I'm down.
Speaker 16: That's obviously the first step. Forget my parents. It would
Speaker 16: be you guys. I'm down to do that. This the
Speaker 16: South is different. I mean, you got a lot of
Speaker 16: guys hanging out of the nine hundred club that you
Speaker 16: know probably sold their company at thirty two and now
Speaker 16: they're single still at fifty eight. The club they have
Speaker 16: what's that about the Peter Pan label. It's a lot
Speaker 16: of que unquote Peter Pans down here that can't grow
Speaker 16: up right.
Speaker 9: But they don't have that advice in that plan of
Speaker 9: action that Dan Hansis just gave you that's gonna lead you.
Speaker 2: That's true.
Speaker 16: Oh they've probably done it six or seven times and
Speaker 16: they're rebooting yet again. It's it's a different world down here.
Speaker 16: I kind of missed the West side. But look we're
Speaker 16: sitting on the beach.
Speaker 7: We would sound challenging, Andrew, but I think you're going
Speaker 7: to navigate it.
Speaker 4: I picture world problem.
Speaker 3: I picture a scenario about six months from now, I
Speaker 3: get a text out of the blue, Andrew, I found
Speaker 3: the one that's gonna be real nice.
Speaker 7: Then then systematically she comes on our show before he.
Speaker 4: And then we clear it your parents, and then away
Speaker 4: we go.
Speaker 16: Would they have to come in and do this in
Speaker 16: your podcast studio or would you guys go on location again?
Speaker 16: Would you come to us?
Speaker 9: Okay, yeah, maybe we'll have another Vista show.
Speaker 3: Give me flex, We'll be flex we'll get the vist
Speaker 3: the sunshine out and we'll have a whole sit down.
Speaker 4: Okay, sounds great. Can I ask you one last thing? Sure? Okay,
Speaker 4: it's a two part question.
Speaker 16: What what do you think of the knew I'm throwing
Speaker 16: myself out there again Aaron Rodgers?
Speaker 4: Okay? And two.
Speaker 16: Do you read into back to back nights at the
Speaker 16: Taylor Swift Show.
Speaker 4: Oh, that's interesting.
Speaker 3: Well, when you say I'm putting myself out there, and
Speaker 3: do you mean just his involvement with the team, with activities.
Speaker 16: Involvement with the team, being mister social doing.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: My my take on that whole thing is if he's
Speaker 3: if he's around for multiple years, year one good soldier year,
Speaker 3: next year, all bets are off and it will be
Speaker 3: the same way it was with Green Bay. He will
Speaker 3: not be in Floram Park in May next year, no
Speaker 3: matter what happens.
Speaker 2: Is old Brandon Marshall plan. Yes, exactly.
Speaker 16: Have you ever have you ever said, well, man, of
Speaker 16: course you've got to FaceTime me.
Speaker 4: I have no service.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I got I gotta say.
Speaker 3: Like, there's another article popped up again where yeah, Matt
Speaker 3: Schnine with the athletic Uh, It's like Aaron, you gotta
Speaker 3: move on, bro like and I understand like Matt Schneidman
Speaker 3: and Packers fans are interested in it, but you just.
Speaker 5: Can't talk about it anyway. You gotta move forward.
Speaker 3: So, yes, there are elements of the Rogers personality that
Speaker 3: will continue to irritate. But if you could play quarterback
Speaker 3: specifically for my team, I will let a lot slide.
Speaker 3: But I think we're gonna get him on very good
Speaker 3: behavior this year, absolutely, and then next year we'll see
Speaker 3: what happens in so many ways of that organization. And
Speaker 3: as far as the Taylor Swift thing, back to back
Speaker 3: nights is a lot. That's that seems like a lot
Speaker 3: if you're saying how to read into that because he's
Speaker 3: just a huge fan of Taylor.
Speaker 16: Sweat is another wrong with that. I'm I might go
Speaker 16: multiple nights. It's so far, I'll tell you, right.
Speaker 9: I mean, I think he was also unless it was
Speaker 9: the same thing. I think he was at the Phoebe
Speaker 9: Bridgers Genius Show too. She's taken it. I just loves
Speaker 9: music just.
Speaker 16: Because Taylor Taylor is due to the free agency right now.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, wait a second.
Speaker 4: I see where you go.
Speaker 16: See where I'm going, and I've seen other gown path
Speaker 16: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: It seems kind of almost it's it has to happen
Speaker 3: at this point. It seems like she's got to lose
Speaker 3: this guy from the nineteen seventy nine and then it
Speaker 3: will be Aaron Rodgers and it will be the biggest
Speaker 3: story in the country.
Speaker 5: I don't need it.
Speaker 3: We need to focus on getting dubs in the swamps, right,
Speaker 3: We need to focus where it should be.
Speaker 2: H Andrew Ceciliano, You've said it all.
Speaker 5: Thank you, my man. I will meet you up for
Speaker 5: a drink about eight feet away in a few minute.
Speaker 16: Guys, I was flattered to be back on the show
Speaker 16: for the first time in four years.
Speaker 4: It made me.
Speaker 2: It made my off season. It made my off season again.
Speaker 2: We'll get you sooner next time. We love Andrew. All right,
Speaker 2: how's evering going? You haven't a good time. The sun's
Speaker 2: not out yet. We need to recall telling back just
Speaker 2: to get on the nerves. Want to get Patrick. Let's
Speaker 2: get Patrick.
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, to come down to Kimmy checks for some
Speaker 9: fantasy and then we'll say, say, I just feel like we.
Speaker 5: There we go another.
Speaker 3: Yes, we need to We got a deep bench today
Speaker 3: now coming on the legend himself, Patrick Clay, what's up?
Speaker 2: You just belonged by the sea.
Speaker 9: Yeah you you you dressed most appropriately.
Speaker 5: Well, thank you, guys.
Speaker 12: I figured we should celebrate the month, celebrate the event,
Speaker 12: and no, I just this was clean.
Speaker 4: This was what happened.
Speaker 9: We've been kind of, you know, carrying the load here
Speaker 9: talking a lot. We heard that you sorry one note.
Speaker 7: I see a man going by a bike wearing the
Speaker 7: exact same sweatshirt that Andrews of Celano just appeared on with,
Speaker 7: you know, and.
Speaker 12: You missed it, Mark, because when you said that, he
Speaker 12: turned around and gave this look as if to say, hey, no.
Speaker 2: One's supposed to talk about that. I'm hot on men's fast.
Speaker 9: I didn't know it was the South Bay uniform. I
Speaker 9: was like, oh, I should get one of those.
Speaker 3: Wait, now he's coming back and he has anger in
Speaker 3: his eyes and he's walking right toward Mark.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think we're gonna have enough this dude out.
Speaker 9: Mark, I was gonna say. Patrick told me privately here
Speaker 9: that he had a five minute monologue though on like
Speaker 9: one of the hottest topics in the NFL. Right now,
Speaker 9: So the floor floor is yours, Patrick.
Speaker 12: Greg is making stuff up again. Occasionally Greg Rosenthal does this.
Speaker 12: He will, he will just fabricate some reality that doesn't exist.
Speaker 9: I thought that was my Sessler's moment.
Speaker 3: You want a little a little fun fact for today's episode,
Speaker 3: two different people sitting in your chair have reference directly
Speaker 3: walking into the ocean and ending it all.
Speaker 12: It's a little dark. It's a little dark right now,
Speaker 12: but we can we can be the light. I love it.
Speaker 12: I love the golf. We can be the light to
Speaker 12: keep people out of the ocean.
Speaker 4: I like that.
Speaker 2: We need that.
Speaker 12: And now I'm experiencing regret because I feel like I
Speaker 12: should have picked up the torch that Greg tried to No,
Speaker 12: that took the easy way of No.
Speaker 3: Do you have any trench in takes that you've been
Speaker 3: sitting on a little bit in terms of the NFL,
Speaker 3: this would be the time to.
Speaker 12: Share it, Dan, If I had a take I was
Speaker 12: sitting on, then it would be an impossible take to
Speaker 12: share publicly with you guys that the listeners could hear,
Speaker 12: because if I have a take, it's coming out, man,
Speaker 12: coming out in some compacity.
Speaker 7: Mean you're on television a lot, especially if you if
Speaker 7: you go into a tavern or a restaurant in NFL networks,
Speaker 7: I feel it gets like eighty five percent of their
Speaker 7: share from just sil tavern restaurant. Fair But like you,
Speaker 7: are you recognized on the street. Do you walk up
Speaker 7: and down the streets whenever say hey, that's Patrick.
Speaker 12: Cla I have three people. I have dudes at Costco. Uh,
Speaker 12: there's three dudes at Costco. Yeah, three particular. This is
Speaker 12: not like a thing that happens a lot. But there's
Speaker 12: three dudes at the Costco that I go to that
Speaker 12: have spoken to.
Speaker 9: Me every time.
Speaker 12: It's the same dudes every time. Otherwise it's like whatever,
Speaker 12: just the dude, you know, just a dude at the
Speaker 12: bar trying to get a drink.
Speaker 4: There's a guy at the bar getting a drink.
Speaker 9: So you're saying they know you the from fantasy, not
Speaker 9: from your around the NFL podcast work.
Speaker 12: No, I'm all the atn people communicate with me through
Speaker 12: other means.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 12: We're a family, of course. But as far as random people,
Speaker 12: I would I wouldn't consider an AT and listener to
Speaker 12: be a random person. They're they're a part of.
Speaker 9: You've always been a risk taker on Twitter. Have you
Speaker 9: received any feedback from the Hires up lately with some.
Speaker 12: Of the thankfully no, thankfully no.
Speaker 3: But isn't that almost like an indicator that maybe it's
Speaker 3: time to ramp up the heat. You like walking up
Speaker 3: to that line, and that's what makes Claybourn a great
Speaker 3: follow on the Twitter.
Speaker 12: I probably should we do have. You know, we've talked
Speaker 12: about the belligerent capitalists that that's operating the institution that
Speaker 12: that we all know and love as Twitter dot com.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna own this company in about six months.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's been a hindrance to my participation. But but
Speaker 12: I'm always going to be on the site. I'm always
Speaker 12: going to be UH in some capacity. But it's you know,
Speaker 12: it's the all season.
Speaker 2: And the only fans page going. It's good.
Speaker 12: We're we're building mark we are building. We're trying to
Speaker 12: get up to something UH that can be marketable, that
Speaker 12: can be distributed. We want to open the kimono it
Speaker 12: literally and it's all about vertical and horizontal integration regarding
Speaker 12: the only fans page, and we're and we're looking forward.
Speaker 9: That was great, yes, and that was very nice.
Speaker 3: And now here's your last opportunity to share a.
Speaker 12: Trench in take Okay, why not because we got the NBA.
Speaker 12: I know there's something in the chamber. Yeah, we've got
Speaker 12: the NBA Finals coming up, yea. And only one team
Speaker 12: gets to be remembered. Only one team gets to go
Speaker 12: around and go to banquets and have horrible chicken and
Speaker 12: talk about their experience for the remainder of their own lives.
Speaker 12: And it is a travesty. I know championships are important,
Speaker 12: but only one team every single season gets to be remembered,
Speaker 12: gets to be celebrated, And I think it's it's a problem.
Speaker 12: I saw people tweeting, especially Celsic's fans, that were like,
Speaker 12: oh I would have rather been swept, Like you didn't
Speaker 12: enjoy the tip in, you didn't enjoy the climb back
Speaker 12: from down three to zero. What are we saying, like,
Speaker 12: why don't you enjoy the sports? Because if you don't
Speaker 12: enjoy the sports, why are you watching?
Speaker 2: That's it.
Speaker 7: That's why football is completely different.
Speaker 3: Is that if once you have that tip in who's
Speaker 3: the gentleman who had the tip in? Point Derek White
Speaker 3: to not win the game seven, it's all the more
Speaker 3: painful because it feels like that went from iconic moment
Speaker 3: in team history to total afterthought. It is like to
Speaker 3: almost waste that and you almost rather it didn't happen.
Speaker 9: It was brutal, but we got those two days of
Speaker 9: excitement looking forward to the game seven. It got the series,
Speaker 9: and I'm the Celtics are a good example of this,
Speaker 9: of this team that keeps getting close. But I do
Speaker 9: try to keep in mind they've given me a lot
Speaker 9: of enjoyment being so good, and yes they haven't gotten
Speaker 9: over the hup. Hopefully they get there someday. But like
Speaker 9: if the Heat lose the series, which I think they will,
Speaker 9: and maybe they'll prove me wrong and everyone wrong like
Speaker 9: they have, Like they should be remembered for making two
Speaker 9: finals runs in this ridiculous era, Like it should be remembered.
Speaker 9: They should have banquets.
Speaker 4: Check it.
Speaker 12: And it's okay to have things hurt, like people are
Speaker 12: leaving relationships all the time and it's like, oh I
Speaker 12: wasted time, did you or did you enjoy your serians
Speaker 12: at the time, and you're upset that it's over, And
Speaker 12: it's fine to be upset when you have something good
Speaker 12: and it ends, But that doesn't mean that you.
Speaker 3: Shouldn't to take buried in the champion And I'll go ahead,
Speaker 3: Mark I.
Speaker 7: Said, twenty seven years from now, Patrick, God happily attend
Speaker 7: that Miami Heat pant with you.
Speaker 2: I don't know what else?
Speaker 12: Yeah, why not Lawry and some good chicken? Why don't
Speaker 12: we make the chicken better?
Speaker 3: Before we say goodbye, Pat, I can't really look at you, Patrick,
Speaker 3: so I have to talk in this record before we
Speaker 3: say goodbye. On the subject of the NBA Playoffs, the
Speaker 3: Miami Heat drop game one of the play in They're
Speaker 3: down in the elimination play in game, win that game
Speaker 3: five minutes to go, and then what happens? They knock
Speaker 3: off a suppose a juggernaut number one seed, then a
Speaker 3: very tough New York Knicks team, then a fifty eight
Speaker 3: win Celtic squad.
Speaker 5: How about that moment claim?
Speaker 2: How about it?
Speaker 12: The obvious question is, Dan, why didn't they lose to
Speaker 12: the Bulls?
Speaker 2: If because they didn't have their momentum yet, it's a thing.
Speaker 3: Come on, if the Miami Heat exists. To convince Patrick Clayn,
Speaker 3: the momentum is a thing in sport, Okay, we'll see.
Speaker 3: We'll see if they pulled it off.
Speaker 9: The wait, what about the momentum after they blew out
Speaker 9: the Celtics in Game three?
Speaker 2: Well, there'll be a sick of fan.
Speaker 9: To clay Bon, Greg, I've never been a momentum guy
Speaker 9: twenty eight three.
Speaker 3: Did you send any momentum that that Sunday night in Houston?
Speaker 9: I mean I saw a lot of a lot of
Speaker 9: scores in a row talking circles on this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Patrick, let's have a drink. In seven minutes,
Speaker 3: we're drinking, and so all right, in fact, let's.
Speaker 4: Wrap it up.
Speaker 3: We're having some issues. So thank you to everybody for
Speaker 3: uh listening here. Thank you again to Vista and and
Speaker 3: Brady running this operation in Hermosa and all the crew

Speaker 3: have come on. And now we're gonna hang out as
Speaker 3: a group because this is the time of year to
Speaker 3: do such a thing.
