1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports and welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

2
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: It's me Jason McIntyre coming to you live from the

3
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios. When you switched to

4
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: Farmers Insurance, you could save a bundle. All you gotta

5
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: do is call one Farmers get a quote. Today. We

6
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: are Farmers. Nice start to the month of February, right,

7
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 1: A great super Bowl psych Oh my gosh, how bad

8
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: was the Super Bowl? Holy Cow? A week ago? I

9
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: opened the shop all confident, super confident that the Chiefs

10
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: would potentially blow out the Bucks. Thankfully, we have a

11
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: good producer here who likes to push back and says, Jason,

12
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: you're too overconfident. And um, we'll get to the ratings

13
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: later in the show. Obviously they were awful, uh for CBS.

14
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: But I don't think it's the end of the world. Uh.

15
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: Gavin and I have some interesting theories. We are minds

16
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: are aligned on this one. We'll do some Lakers What

17
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: a what a game last night? From Lebron another one,

18
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: further distancing himself from Joel Embaid in the m v

19
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: P race, Lakers were down twenty to two, then they

20
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: were down seventeen in the second quarter, and I changed

21
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: the channel to Haul Pass because it's one of the

22
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: best movies of the last fifteen years. Um, I watched

23
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: all the funny parts and I change it back to

24
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: the Lakers game, and the Lakers are dominating the Grizzlies, Like, uh,

25
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 1: Lebron James. My first thought, and we'll do the Lakers

26
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: in a little bit, is they are the new Chiefs,

27
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs in kind of you know, messed around,

28
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: got all the victories, went fourteen and two. Um, and

29
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: that's what the Lakers are doing. They're just screwing around here.

30
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: They could have easily destroyed the Grizzlies. They messed around.

31
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: Then they're like, oh, we've got to start playing, and

32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: then they eviscerate the Grizzlies and win again. The Lakers

33
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: are gonna win one title in in unless they get

34
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 1: fortunate like the Bucks and they get to face backup

35
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 1: left tackles in the championship game and the Super Bowl.

36
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: Uh No, I'm kidding that. Lakers should be fine as

37
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: as long as they're healthy. I think they should be

38
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,399
Speaker 1: in the finals. Um, it is Valentine's weekend. I'm sure

39
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: you guys, have gotten something for your lady. If you haven't,

40
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: it's probably too late. Uh, you know, you don't want

41
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: to be last minute shopping. All the good cards are

42
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: picked through. UM. I was on it this year. I definitely,

43
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: you know, I gotta order flowers for the wife, the mom,

44
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: the wife's mom, the wife's step mom. So like I

45
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: got it all out. You know, I had had my

46
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: young daughter by me and I was like, hey, what

47
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: do you think you picked the flowers? You know this stuff,

48
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: and she just points click done, point click boom and

49
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: you gotta deliver on Valentine's weekend. Guys, you know. Um,

50
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: but let's get to uh an interesting story in sports.

51
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: This happened late last night and if you're just waking

52
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: up out here in l A on the West Coast,

53
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: you probably are not aware of it. So Urban Meyer,

54
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: as you guys know, is not um loved by the media. Okay,

55
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: he was a good media member when breaking down stuff

56
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: and analyzing uh college football here for Fox Sports. And

57
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: the way he left the University of Florida and the

58
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: university and Ohio State University, it didn't totally end well.

59
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: There were internal issues that the media kind of latched

60
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: onto and went after him. Obviously a lot of arrests

61
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: at Florida Urban Meyer great coach, but the other stuff,

62
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: you know, the media loves to sink its teeth into,

63
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: and there's this weird situation and I couldn't believe. I

64
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: feel like I stumbled onto some gold last night while

65
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: researching this UM. But I get this vibe that there

66
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: is not a lot of of for the college football

67
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: coaches who come up to the NFL. They didn't pay

68
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: their dues as a coordinator, as a position coach at

69
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: the NFL level. They went at college and then they

70
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: get given or handed a job in the NFL. And

71
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: we've seen this. The media, for whatever reason, pushes back

72
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: hard on those guys. I'll name a couple. This is

73
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: in just the last fifteen years. UM, Chip Kelly dominant

74
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: and Oregon won a lot of games, didn't win the title,

75
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: but went to the National title game. And maybe it

76
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: was his ego and his arrogance, but he came into

77
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 1: Philly and you could tell early the media did not

78
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: really love him. The media liked it was a college

79
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: coach and rooted for him. But then he gets to

80
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,679
Speaker 1: the NFL and as soon as they had that playoff loss.

81
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: It was open season on Chip Kelly like, oh, this

82
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: guy's a fraud and he ended up failing miserably. Um

83
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: Nick Saban in Miami. This guy had won in Michigan State,

84
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: he had won a title at l s U. He

85
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: come then in the NFL, and as soon as he

86
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: didn't win, oh, well is this guy anybody can win

87
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: in college? Uh? And they went after Nick Saban. Steve Spurrier.

88
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: This is a little further back in Washington. Oh yeah,

89
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: we love the old ball coach. He's a great story.

90
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: And as soon as you don't deliver in the NFL, well, listen, man,

91
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: anybody can win at Gainesville. Come on. And it's for

92
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 1: whatever reason, I feel like the media is already has

93
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: it out for Urban Meyer. He hired a strength and

94
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: conditioning performance coach from the University of Iowa. Okay, this

95
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: is a guy who was fired last summer, or maybe

96
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: I should say parted ways with the school because of

97
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: some comments he was making to some of the players

98
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: that were Um. Now, they did not fire him with

99
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: cause because they still paid him out a salary. I guess,

100
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, whatever he said, a bunch of the comments

101
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: they were out of bounds and if you just read them,

102
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: it's like, jeezus, guy's a crazy person. But then if

103
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: you've been in a locker room, I mean, maybe some

104
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: of that stuff flew in the Iowa locker room. He

105
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: was certainly around forever, but he ended up getting ditched

106
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: by Iowa, and urban Meyer hired him. Now Urban says

107
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: they vetted him and they went through everything and they're

108
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: confident with the higher. One day later, the coach resigns

109
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: under public pressure, and of course it comes out to oh,

110
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: it's a canceled culture thing and they're going after this guy. Listen.

111
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: I went on my straight Fire podcast, you know, Thursday

112
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: Friday morning when this hire was made, and I gotta

113
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 1: say my take was like, I don't think it's the

114
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: greatest higher, but relationships matter. Urban Meyer knew this guy

115
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: and he wanted to throw him a bone and give

116
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: him a second chance as a guy who had coached

117
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: for twenty some odd years and now he's probably done

118
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: as a coach because of the comments he made. And

119
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 1: some of the players said, hey, man, this guy is racist.

120
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 1: He he was making racist comments for several years. And

121
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: it's not just one or two players. It was a

122
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: handful of players. Um, and I still think I understand

123
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: why Urban Meyer did it, and I'm curious as to

124
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: why this guy resigned. Did he think that this was

125
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: just gonna never let up and they were gonna keep

126
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: bombing and keep asking questions? And then Mike Florio Pro

127
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: Football Talk had a really interesting note. Urban Meyers said, Oh, yeah,

128
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: I knew him back when I coached at Utah, and

129
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: I guess Florio looked into it. And they didn't actually

130
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: coach together. He was a prominent strength and conditioning coach

131
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: around that time, but Urban never coached with him, and

132
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: it was just one of these interesting huh okay, so

133
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: are they friends? Do they have an existing relationship? And

134
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: ultimately I spun it forward to this, the college football

135
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: coaches have absolute power in their towns. When Urban is

136
00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: at Ohio State, he's the most powerful man, not only Columbus,

137
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: but basically in the state of Ohio. Okay. Nick Saban

138
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: in Alabama absolute power, can do whatever he wants. He's

139
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: the most powerful man in the state, the highest paid

140
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: state employee. And that happens to a lot of these

141
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: coaches in small towns. They can do whatever they want.

142
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: They make all the hires they want. They go after

143
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: questionable kids. Their tactics may be questionable, but nobody's gonna

144
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,679
Speaker 1: call him on it. They live in a small town

145
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: and they can just bully the media. You get to

146
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: the NFL, no such thing as small town. Every market,

147
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: including Jacksonville, matters, is a big one and the NFL

148
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: media is a juggernaut. And Urban Meyer just got a

149
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: lesson in Hey, man, I could do whatever I want.

150
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: You can't in the NFL. It does not work like that. Um.

151
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: If you remember a guy named Bobby Petrino, he was

152
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 1: an awesome coach at Louisville, right built Louisville up, and

153
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: then goes to the NFL to coach Mike Vick in Atlanta. Well, no,

154
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: sooner that Petrino gets to Atlanta, Mike Vick gets snared

155
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: in the UM the illegal dog fighting operation. So Bobby

156
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: Patrino went to Atlanta thinking, okay, I got a quarterback,

157
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 1: I'll take Mike Vick, the greatness. And Mike Vick was, like,

158
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: you know, instantly in trouble with the law. Uh what's

159
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: his name? Petrino had to try out like Joey Harrington

160
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: and a bunch of other quarterbacks they go three and ten.

161
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: In the final month of the season, Bobby Petrino just leaves.

162
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: He's like, I don't need these headaches. But first year

163
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: of a five year deal, he just bails, goes back

164
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: to college, goes back to the small town and as

165
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 1: that Arkansas and as dominant. How dominant you ask, Well,

166
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: he was having an affair with a volleyball player at

167
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: the university, then she graduated. He hired this chick to

168
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: work in the football operations with him. He was paying

169
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: her a salary, having an affair with her, cheating on

170
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: his wife. Then he gets in the motorcycle accident and

171
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: in really it's like, oh, well, Bobby Petrino was giving

172
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: the scroll a ride home and then it's like, oh no,

173
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: wait a sec. He's cheating on his wife and all

174
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 1: this stuff, and it comes out like you can absorb

175
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: a lot in a small town once the log gets involved,

176
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: little bit of questions. So Patrino ultimately ended up coming back.

177
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: He got disgraced at Arkansas. He comes back at like

178
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: Western Kentucky. Uh. I think he landed somewhere else after that,

179
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: and like, you could just survive in college in these

180
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: small towns. But I think urban Meyer just realize what

181
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: he's up against. And folks, this ultimately could could and

182
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: you don't want to go overboard or on a strengthened

183
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: conditioning performance coach hiring, You don't want to go overboard.

184
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: But the reality is, Kevin, does this make you think, well, shucks,

185
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: Maybe urban Meyer is not gonna be long for the NFL.

186
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: Maybe he does. I want to try to bring into

187
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: Shaun Watson win in year one, in year two, make

188
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: a move, get to the super Bowl, and he don't

189
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: want to build something with Trevor Lawrence. Did that ever

190
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: cross your mind last night? Yeah? I mean a little.

191
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: The only thing is I question urban Meyer chose this

192
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 1: time to come out right, to come into the NFL

193
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 1: seemingly because there's a generational talent in Trevor Lawrence. I

194
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: don't think, you know, he couldn't have known that Deshaun

195
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: Watson would become available. But you know, I do understand

196
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: the argument of taking the proven talent. There is a

197
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: chance that Trevor Lawrence, you know, is a bust. I

198
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 1: don't think it's a high likelihood. I don't think it's

199
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: gonna be Ryan Leef or anything, but um, yeah, I

200
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: mean I don't know which Clemson quarterback would you rather

201
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: have right now? Well, for building an NFL franchise, I

202
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: would rather take Trevor Lawrence because he's on the rookie deal.

203
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: You have a lot of draft capital, you have a

204
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: lot of free agency money. I mean, theoretically, Tampa could say,

205
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna go out and get Shack Barrett, who was

206
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: just dominant in the postseason for Tampa. He uh two

207
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: year run was incredible. We're gonna go out and get

208
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson from the Bears. We're gonna draft Trevor Lawrence. Um,

209
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: maybe we're gonna draft another, uh skill position player. And

210
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you look around and you know,

211
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence has uh the kid Laviska chan Alt who

212
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 1: was pretty good last year. Um, they have some other

213
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: good skill position players, the rookie undrafted running back. Um,

214
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: they got a solid offensive line, and you've got a

215
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: couple of defenders. Remember this is a division. Gavin Tennessee

216
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: is gonna be coming back to the pack. We have

217
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: a question mark about the Cults at quarterback. Everybody knows

218
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: the Texans are garbage. That would be my only thought

219
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: as to why they don't make a play on Watson

220
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: because it's in the division and the Texans they're not

221
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: gonna say, hey, what we want to see Deshaun Watson

222
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: twice a year, you know. But if you see him

223
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: twice a year and you've got Trevor Lawrence, that kind

224
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: of changes the equation. I just don't think Deshaun Watson

225
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 1: with that current Jack's roster does anything for next year.

226
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: I would agree, yeah, they need a lot more. And

227
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: that's the problem with trading for Watson is you're gonna

228
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: have to mortgage at least three first round picks. Um.

229
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 1: I had Daniel Jeremiah on on Straight Fire two weeks

230
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: ago and he said three first round picks should do it.

231
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: He also did say, uh, Derek Carr ain't worth a

232
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 1: first round pick. And remember there was chatter for like

233
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: eight minutes that oh, Derek Carr could fetch two ones.

234
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: And he's like, no, no, no, no, no way, no way.

235
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: Um So listen, urban Meyer has to be humbled a

236
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: little bit by this and frustrated being told to you you

237
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: can and can hire after all your coaching career, you

238
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: do whatever the hell you want. Wake up, urban Meyer,

239
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,520

00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,679

257
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: this is the weekend. Gavin, I missed the halftime show.

258
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: I was doing a halftime show for Fox Sports Digitally.

259
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: We did a gambling halftime show. Um, how was the

260
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: weekend you didn't miss much? Yeah, it's weird. There was

261
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: very little buzz about the halftime show in the commercials

262
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: this year now, the commercials were awful. I don't think

263
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: there was really one that stood out to me. Um.

264
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: I have a friend who was actually working sound at

265
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: the Super Bowls. He was in Tampa Bay and said

266
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: there was a lot of sound issues with the halftime

267
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: show as well, and he was asking me if it

268
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: came through on the TV, and it did so. As

269
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: the sound engineer, I was very like I thought, conceptually

270
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: super Bowl halftime was great, but there was no reason

271
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: on God's Green Earth the vocals to be at the

272
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: same level as the crowd noise. That's what killed it

273
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 1: for me. Alright, So the weekend did not deliver UM

274
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: at the super Bowl. And I think he's a fantastic

275
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: act and I didn't even have some problems. Some people

276
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: thought his act was weird or the dancers are weird.

277
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: I'd have a problem with that. It was just the mixing. Um. Yeah,

278
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: other than blinding lights, I don't really know any of

279
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: his songs. Does he have a lot of good ones?

280
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: He has a lot of great songs. He had a

281
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: great like debut back in almost look it up. It's

282
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: called House of Balloons was a terrific like intro. And

283
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: he has a song called Wicked Gay said is fabulous.

284
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: The thing is it's a very slower song. And those

285
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: Chris Isaac song with the game at all. I think

286
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: the thing with the Weekend is a lot of his

287
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: songs aren't like blinding Lights. They're not the up and dancing,

288
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: crazy happy times once. So that's why he was kind

289
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: of a weird choice in terms of his catalogs. So yeah,

290
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: I think they'll go do Uh, I don't know, maybe

291
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: like Ariana Grande next year. Hello, I'm a fan. No,

292
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. Let me ask you, Gavin. The ratings

293
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: were awful, worse than what sixteen years or something? Uh,

294
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: what's your read on you know, the Super Bowl TV ratings?

295
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 1: Maybe the better question is how do you do you

296
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: think it's fair? How they find out the ratings A calculm? No,

297
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: because as a chord cutter, right, I watch it on

298
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: YouTube TV. I don't think those get count those get

299
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: counted by Nielsen. I think there are streaming numbers which

300
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: I can look up, which the article I read this

301
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: morning about it it was the most live streamed NFL

302
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: game ever up from last year. So that tells you

303
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: how much the direction is going. Um And we've had

304
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: a discussion in this production room about the generation Z right,

305
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: the younger kids. I don't think there is you know,

306
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: interested in sports as they are maybe when me or

307
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: you were children, right, So I think that's a factor

308
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: as well. But no, the rating system is completely outdated

309
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: on how they get those numbers. Yeah, it's definitely a

310
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: new generation of sports fans. We after I did that

311
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: halftime show for Fox that talk to line one, I

312
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: drove back to where my family was. That we were

313
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: at a friend's house socially distance outdoors watching the Super Bowl. UM,

314
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: and you know, it was kind of a blowout and

315
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: there was not a lot of drama. So the kids

316
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: were like, we're gonna play Madden? Is that cool? And

317
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: I mean we had the game on one TV and

318
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: they were able to play Madden. But yeah, like it's

319
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: it was a tough sell. You know, the game. The

320
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: game sucked. I know that is a factor of you know,

321
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: the word of mouth like oh my god, you gotta

322
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: turn this game on. Well, we didn't have that. The

323
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: game in the second half of Son of That, it

324
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: was a little disappointing. It's kind of hard to do

325
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: super Bowl parties this year to everything going around. And

326
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: I mean, when you hear wait, hold on, Chris, when

327
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: you hear super Bowl parties, you think, okay, that means

328
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: everybody's watching at home by themselves, so the numbers should

329
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: go up, right, sure, But if you're not. If you

330
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 1: have let's say, theoretically you had a super Bowl party,

331
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: four people are involved, but that's not to say all

332
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: four of those people are interested in watching the game.

333
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 1: When you're going to super Bowl party, sometimes people they

334
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: don't care to turn on the game. They just want

335
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 1: to be around other people. It's a big it's a

336
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: big chance to just kind of gather with people and

337
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 1: see them, especially in the middle of February. And I

338
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: mean to to Gavin's point about the generational divide, I

339
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: really do wonder as far as like sports aren't really

340
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: the water cooler topic anymore. It's wand division. It shows

341
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: like that. I'm just saying shows like that, plus it's

342
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: Disney plus show. It's a Marvel, it's a Marvel property,

343
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: it's part of the Marvel Cinematic it's a. It's a

344
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: TV show that's streaming on Disney Plus. Yeah, all right,

345
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 1: I'll have to check that out. But I thought he

346
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: was gonna say people are talking about the stock market

347
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: and like Wall Street bets and stuff like that. I

348
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: will say I've never had as many people texting about

349
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: the stock market friends. Then since when this uh Wall

350
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: Street bet stuff. When you want to know what ratings

351
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: you know, uh, I would love to see the chart

352
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: for CNBC. I've never watched the NBC more in my life.

353
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: Week of game stuff. It was fascinating. Is we go

354
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: through these weird phases. You're right because you watched the NBC.

355
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: I will say I had never watched more like CNN

356
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 1: Fox News than leading up to the election. The last

357
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: time I watched c NBC at length was during the crisis,

358
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: the housing crisis, what was it two thousand and eight.

359
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,239
Speaker 1: Maybe I was watching that every single day. And now

360
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: it's it's like I'm not watching any news channels. It's

361
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: just kind of movies, really, movies and streaming. Um, have

362
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 1: you just watched this one division? Yeah? I actually have watched. Uh.

363
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: There's I think seven episodes out now. I watched the

364
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: first six this last week. Is it child appropriate? Yeah,

365
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: anything on Disney is yeah, absolutely, um and it's really

366
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 1: well done. It's a bit confusing in the beginning, but um,

367
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 1: look it has a lot of not uh nods too

368
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: great sitcoms of the past, so really really good. Have

369
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: to check it out. Actually, we got a guest coming

370
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: up here, so after the break we will get to that.

371
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: Then we'll get to the Houston Texans dumpster fire. We

372
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: just love to go off on tangents on the show.

373
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: That's the beauty of Saturday morning radio. Like, I don't

374
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: know if everybody's out taking their kids to sporting events

375
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 1: on Saturdays. A lot of people getting coffee donuts, and

376
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: you know, we could do the standard operating procedure radio

377
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: stuff of hey, let's break out in the uh the

378
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 1: game last night, how about that Clippers win? Like, we

379
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: just don't do that here. We're just gonna bounce around

380
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: one division, you know, who knows. All right, coming up

381
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: next year on Fox Sports Radio, we dive into the

382
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: Houston Texans with a writer from Houston. Oh my gosh,

383
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: I would say, Houston, We've got a problem. But it's

384
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 1: way bigger than that. Back here on Fox Sports Radio,

385
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: it's be Jason McIntyre live from the Farmer's Insurance Fox

386
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Studios called one at eight Farmers and you

387
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: could save a whole lot of something on auto insurance.

388
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: All right, let's bring in Aaron Wilson Houston Chronicle. He's

389
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: been covering the dumpster fire that is the Texans for

390
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: uh several months now. Aaron, good morning. How are you great? God?

391
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: I gotta say, man, you've been dominant of late on

392
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, and um, let's start right now with

393
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 1: j J. Watt Um. A lot of people were surprised

394
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: that the Texans did not even try to trade him

395
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: the way that the Lions said, Hey, we're gonna trade

396
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,360
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford. You want to go to l A, will

397
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: trade you to l A. Will get something in return? Well,

398
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: he in gate Jared Goff, a Bridge quarterback in return.

399
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,959
Speaker 1: Do you have any idea what the logic is from

400
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: the Texans here where they trying to build up goodwill

401
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: with their fans. I don't know about google with the

402
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: fans as much as they wanted to do right by

403
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: j J. And that's a direct quota. Talked to Kill McNair,

404
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: the owner of the Texans, yesterday and he said he

405
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: wanted j J to have plenty of time to pick

406
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: his new team. They wanted to accommodate JJ. They felt

407
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: like he had given them, like literally everything he had

408
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: in his body. You know, he's been through a lot medically,

409
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: and you know he's giving them a lot of thrills

410
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: on the field. So they felt like that was the

411
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 1: right thing to do. They weren't, I guess, being cut

412
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 1: through it about you know, the middle round pick that

413
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: they could have gotten back for JJ or picks, and

414
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: so they just decided that was better way. They didn't

415
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: want to have any hard feelings with him. They were

416
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: honoring his request. That's what he preferred. And so now

417
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: he's the big free agent on the market. And as

418
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: of lefter four pm Eastern yesterday, when they terminated his

419
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 1: vested veteran contract, that was officially came across on the

420
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: personnel wire that allowed him to get to free agency.

421
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 1: So he's out there now and he's already talking to teams.

422
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: So I think for you know, the Texans, was it

423
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: the best like football personnel decision. No, there's some things

424
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: you could have done. I think you could have let

425
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: him given it permission, let him pick his own team,

426
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 1: all those sorts of things, setting some kind of baseline

427
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: for what you hope for in draft pick compensation. But

428
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: they just thought this was a cleaner way to kind of,

429
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: you know, rip off the band aid. And yeah, it hurt.

430
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,360
Speaker 1: Um Like Calmar was talking about. You know, his mom

431
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 1: is a who's the founder, co founder of the Texans

432
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 1: and technically the owner. He's in control of the team.

433
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: But the widow of the late Bob McNairy. Yeah, she's upset,

434
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: she's sad. I mean she I really love and loves JJ.

435
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,719
Speaker 1: I think it's uh, it's an emotional day. It's very

436
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: bitter sweet for the family and for the city, the fans,

437
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: you know, even though it's not unexpected. Literally actually copos

438
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: him in the day before saying that we're likely he'll

439
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 1: be cut or traded then be back and that was

440
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: not groundbreaking at all because we've been saying it for

441
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 1: a long time. But d J just I mean you,

442
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: if you've been around him during the season, how frustrated

443
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 1: and angry he was and how but I mean, he'll

444
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: he'll tell you he is not a good loser. He

445
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: did not take it well and he was uh really

446
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: really mad a lot of times, and it was tough

447
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: for him to endure, I know, you know, just discussions

448
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: with him. He did the best he could. But I mean,

449
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: there are four and twelve and they're having a problem

450
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: with their quarterback obviously, and j J is one of

451
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: no parts of a rebuild and that's what this is.

452
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: This is a rebuild. So I I think the quote

453
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: is show me a good loser, and I'll show you

454
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: a loser. Um. So I'm okay with j J. Watt

455
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 1: being angry. But Aaron, let me ask you this. You

456
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: said he asked to be released and they granted it.

457
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson has asked for a trade. Does the same

458
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: apply here? Uh? Comming nurses, their different situations and that

459
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: DeShawn is a Texan and he's going to be a Texan,

460
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: so they're very dug in just as Deshaan is. So

461
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: they have a standoff where they have a big difference

462
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: of opinion and we have no really no encouragement order reconciliation. Uh.

463
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: He says, no, Deshaun is not talking to them, You're

464
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: not taking his calls, so it's become kind of redundant,

465
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: you know. Could the Texans, I mean some of them

466
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: actually obviously have to back down. The Texans will be there,

467
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: have to change their stance, you know, probably heading into

468
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: the draft. That's so many believe will happen. That's only

469
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: logic suggesting that, or just Seaun would have to change

470
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: his students say, you know what, I want to be

471
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: a part of this, someone that helped fix this, and

472
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: I just can't see him going this far down the road,

473
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: down the train tracks and then you know changing. No, No,

474
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 1: I think he has intentionality, a lot of resolved as

475
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: as his agent, David will Gheta. They're very serious about this.

476
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: This is not this has nothing to do with money.

477
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: This says all to do with respect, and they feel

478
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: like trust is broken. So how do you go back

479
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: from that? Because cal mcnai is not selling the team,

480
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: he's like stepping down. I mean, so he's the owner,

481
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: and I know that there would be any out there

482
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: that say, well, you know they gave you generational wealth.

483
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: You know he signed his contract back in September, just

484
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: on your contract. Well, it's little bit contrary to where

485
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: I think this game is starting to go, which has

486
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 1: lots of the player empowerment. Yeah, you know, a little

487
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: bit like the NBA. So yeah, I mean I understand

488
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: his perspective and he's literally at the top of his game.

489
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: He's the NFL passing leader. He had his best season

490
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: despite the cats around him, and he's been commendable on

491
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: an off the field. It's a high character individual, does

492
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: a lot for charity in Houston and in Jordan where

493
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: he's from, and he's a good guy. So it's kind

494
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: of it's hard for and I don't think the Texas

495
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 1: at all m say anything. You know great things about

496
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: T Shawn that's said, you are seeing some fan base

497
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 1: that are frustrated with the situations, so you know they

498
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: are frustrated with him. I mean there's been even people

499
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: that burned their jerseys. Yeah, there's those guys. And there

500
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: was one guy I think that did it that he

501
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: posted them and he was like, I'm disgusted with the

502
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 1: text and something done with everything. He burned everything he had.

503
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: Let me ask you if if there's a scenario where

504
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,719
Speaker 1: someone can stand up to the billionaire owner who's bungled everything.

505
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: He seems like he's in a trance under this Jack

506
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: easterby the shadowy figure, the chaplain who is now like

507
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: running the franchise. Do do you feel like anybody's gonna

508
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: stand up to Kelly mcnarren say like, yo, you gotta

509
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: stop listening to this. This team is going way way backwards.

510
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: We're an embarrassment in the league. Now. Do you think

511
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: anybody can stand up to him and say that. I

512
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: don't know. I only look at it quite that way,

513
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 1: but I would say, you know, he likes Jack Easterby

514
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: and Sintence, his entire family, So it's not like it's

515
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: just this whole a bunch of people that are you know,

516
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: saying in the organization that there against Easterby. I mean

517
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: Easterby his friends with Nick Assario, Easterby, he has every

518
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: relation shift that you could want if you're at the

519
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 1: top of the food chain of the organization. So he's

520
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: someone that you know, has built an extremely strong bond

521
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: with the family and they have a lot of confidence

522
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,479
Speaker 1: in him, and they feel like he's a big part

523
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: of the reason why they have Nikissario. They're proud of

524
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: hiring and having David Culley, who they like a lot,

525
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: and obviously they're giving a chance to It hasn't been

526
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: a head coach before, but it's highly recommended by guys.

527
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: I respect guys. I covered for a long time for

528
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: fifteen years, like obssly need swimming John Horriball. I mean,

529
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff has to play out. He has

530
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: to see how does it go. But now I don't

531
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: I don't foresee that at all. I mean, he's not

532
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: going anywhere at all. He's no, he's gonna be here,

533
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: be here for a long time. He's under a six

534
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 1: year contract. I don't. I don't see anything changing with jackist.

535
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: I know this, he's not stepping down. He won't be fired.

536
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 1: A lot of people, including Sports Illustrated, they definitely tried

537
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: to take him down, and you know also didn't see

538
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: a lot of negative pressed toward Bill O'Brien in those articles.

539
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: O'Brien is absolutely well, I'll just you know, I'll let

540
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: you to that. But I would say this, if you

541
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: look at everything that's happened here, you know they've had

542
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: a lot of turmol, they've had a lot of upheaval.

543
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: And this goes back to even when there were power

544
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: struggles with Bill O'Brien and Rick Smith, and then you

545
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: go to Brian game and then it goes to you

546
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: Bill being out. So it's just it's if any whatever reason,

547
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: it's been too much turmol, too much tumult, and it's

548
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: been a tough time for the franchise and tough time

549
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: for the city because one thing that everyone building I understand,

550
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: it's only they have this greatness. They've had some players,

551
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: want some individual athletes. They have been to the playoffs,

552
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: they won a couple of playoff games. They're the only

553
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: team NFC South has never been to the NC Championship,

554
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: never obviously been to a super Bowl. So it's not

555
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: like there was some like great legacy of this team

556
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: with all this winning. You know, I look at a

557
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: little differently. I look at a kind of big picture

558
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: and I say, what have they really done that everyone?

559
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, there's some players that achieved great things

560
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: like J. J. Watt, NFL de Consplay of the Year

561
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: three times, whenly Lawrence Tillon, Aaron Donald have matched that

562
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: amount of NFL the Display of the Year crowns. But

563
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: this team has never really done anything. They you know,

564
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,479
Speaker 1: they got blown out by the Chiefs. They still got there. Though,

565
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: they still got there getting to the playoffs something. You know,

566
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: what's the point if you're not winning the super Bowl?

567
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: If you like but I mean they're they're they're not.

568
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I honestly feel like after they got blown

569
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 1: up by the Chiefs, that was the time for them

570
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: to make the change and to say, hey, we aren't

571
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: good enough. And they didn't. They doubled down. They thought

572
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 1: they were there, even further away than they thought. I mean,

573
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: it got worse. I think that was a uh kind

574
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: of a moment where they need to be a wake

575
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: up call because that was it was Aaron Wilson, Houston Chronicle.

576
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: Follow him on Twitter at Aaron Wilson underscore NFL aeron

Speaker 1: have a good one. That was Aaron Wilson of the

581
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: Houston Chronicle. Um. I thought he was a little harsh

582
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: about the Texas. Hey, man, I'll just say this, My

583
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 1: Jets have not been in the playoffs in a decade.

584
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: Okay a decade. I still remember their last playoff game.

585
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: You know, I'll talk about it a little bit later

586
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: in the show. But I don't know, guys like making

587
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 1: the playoffs should because I mean, look at Buffalo. They're

588
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: jumping through tables in January because they made the playoffs

589
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: in like won a game or two. Coming up next

601
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: I see everybody's having fun with the idea of what

602
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: if Carson Wentz went to the forty Niners and Deshaun

603
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: Watson went to the Jets and Sam Donald went to

604
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: the Colts, and they're just like playing musical chairs with quarterbacks.

605
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: I mean, the reality is, guys, there probably will be

606
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: one or two moves, maybe three. I don't know, if

607
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: I had to guess right now, I don't see who's

608
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: taken Carson Wentz. Remember how imminent that was, Gavin like

609
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: a week or two ago. Like old Carson Watz is

610
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: on the precipice of being traded really really guys. A

611
00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: lot of rumors coming out of Chicago. Like I think

612
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do is drive up the price

613
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: of all these guys because Naggy of course, and Andy

614
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 1: Reid guy Chris Ballard's coach is Frank Reich, who worked

615
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: with Carson Wentz. So those are two logical places if

616
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 1: you have any interesting Carson Wentz and you hear those

617
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 1: two are stiffing around. The value just went up, right.

618
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, Well, hey, Bill Belichick is gonna want him.

619
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: You gonna have to pony up if you want Jimmy Garoppolo.

620
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 1: Like everybody's doing that and using the media to drive

621
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: up costs of players, and it's working. It worked in

622
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: the NBA. Now the NBA, the players, um, we're smarter,

623
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: signed shorter deals and could bounce around quicker. But I

624
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 1: mean we've we've been over this on the show. In

625
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: like a seven year span, I think like seven of

626
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 1: the top ten players in the league changed teams and

627
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: the speculation was so rampant in the media that the

628
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,919
Speaker 1: NBA off season was better than the actual season, because

629
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: all teams would do is dream up ideas, what we

630
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: could get Kyrie Irving, we could snag Jimmy Butler, and

631
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 1: like everybody was just pitting their hopes on that. Meanwhile,

632
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: the teams like a twenty win disaster, but who cares,

633
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: we might be in the mix for this guy, and

634
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,439
Speaker 1: like that excitement is gonna make the NFL like very,

635
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 1: very popular this offseason. Tauson, I do have mock draft

636
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: for Fox Sports, and I just added Mac Jones to

637
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:32,959
Speaker 1: the first round because the more you talk to people

638
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 1: around the league, well, yeah, I mean there's there's not

639
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: enough good quarterbacks, and there are more than enough good

640
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 1: teams that need a quarterback. I mean, there's no way

641
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 1: Belichick's going in the next off season, our next season, sorry,

642
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,280
Speaker 1: with no quarterback. They're just not He tried Cam Newton.

643
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 1: It was a spectacular failure, and it's pretty clear he's

644
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 1: gonna go after the likes of Jimmy g Deshaun Watson,

645
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 1: and if all that fails, you know, he's got a

646
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 1: great relationship with Nick Saban and maybe he makes a

647
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,399
Speaker 1: run at Mac Jones. I will be clear, I don't

648
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 1: love Matt Jones as like an early round, early first

649
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: round pick, but the reality is there's a needed quarterback

650
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: around the league. So I had for the mock draft

651
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: I did for Fox Sports, I had five quarterbacks in

652
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,919
Speaker 1: the top fifteen. Maybe ambitious, but I'm telling you, look

653
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 1: around the NFL there's like seven or eight teams that

654
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: need a quarterback. What do you think about the argument

655
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 1: that mac Jones just had a lot of talent around definitely,

656
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: and then the other thing you look at him, lack

657
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,320
Speaker 1: of mobility. There's not a lot of great examples outside

658
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,839
Speaker 1: of Brady you know, Rivers, meaning those guys. But that's

659
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: a high bar if you're gonna say it's gonna be

660
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, I mean I think I counted. Mac

661
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: Jones had sixteen starts in college and this year the

662
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: entire SEC was down and his team was loaded. I mean,

663
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,240
Speaker 1: he's gonna have two first round picks. A wide receiver.

664
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: I think they had five, all of Americans, which was

665
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: more than like the entire Big twelve and Big ten

666
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: combined or some insane status or maybe it was a

667
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: Pack twelve. Um, He's gonna have two first round wide receivers.

668
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: He threw to ye, I mean, let's be real, toa

669
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 1: did not look like half the quarterback of Herbert or Burrow.

670
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: He went from a stacked Alabama team to you know,

671
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 1: Preston Williams and whoever else behind. Yeah, like I mean

672
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: to it did not look great coming up next year.

673
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: On Fox Sports Radio, we plow into our number two

674
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 1: with the Lakers primed to repeat as champions. I mean,

675
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: come on, guys, come on, like, I don't know who's

676
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 1: beating the Lakers. Are the Clippers taking down the Lakers?

677
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: The Clippers, who, by the way, aren't even playing Luke

678
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 1: Kennard any good minutes. Lou Williams is on the trade block,

679
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 1: it ain't. The Nuggets are barely in the playoffs, Mavericks

680
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:57,399
Speaker 1: are starting to make a run into the top ten.

681
00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: But the NBA is about to get exciting. We had

682
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: college basketball around the corner. There's just so much fun happening.

683
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: Keep it here, our number two Here on Fox Sports Radio,

684
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 1: it's your boy, Jason McIntyre coming to you live from

Speaker 1: bucks on auto insurance. That's a whole lot of money

688
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 1: for a quick phone call. Don't you think average nationwide

689
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 1: annual savings survey data July to December. We are Do

690
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: you guys prefer data or data? Take that data? Yes,

691
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 1: that's what I was saying. Um, you know we're gonna

692
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 1: get to the Lakers here in a second. I just

693
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,720
Speaker 1: needed to open this hour by giving a huge thank

694
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: you to the Houston Texas just I just I owe

695
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 1: them a lot because they are now the biggest dumpster

696
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: fire in the NFL. And it was supposed to be

697
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: the New York Jets. That's where we were headed. Remember

698
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: last year and forever, it was the Cleveland Browns, right,

699
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 1: they had the longest playoff drought. They were on their

700
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: third coach in three years, and if you want to

701
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 1: count Greg Williams as um you know, uh interim coach

702
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: for half the season. Four coaches in three years. And

703
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: then the Browns erased that with the playoff trip last

704
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: year and a win, and now the torch was going

705
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: to be passed to my Jets, who had the longest

706
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 1: playoff drought ten years. I can still remember their last

707
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: playoff loss. And I was at a buddy's house in

708
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania when we were living out there, and it's the

709
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: AFC Championship game. The Jets were down like twenty four

710
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,839
Speaker 1: to three at half time or something, and they stormed back.

711
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez a bomb to Santonio Homes. There was a

712
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: nice special teams play um and the Steelers have the

713
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: ball with like three minutes left. All the Jets have

714
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: to do is force a punt, and I was convinced

715
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 1: they were gonna get the touchdown. And I one of

716
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: those moments as a sports fan where you're on the

717
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 1: couch and you dropped to the floor and you're pounding

718
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: the floor. Cut on, Jets, get to stop, get the rock,

719
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: you know, like you're really in that fan moment. And

720
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: then of course Big Ben converted like three straight their

721
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: downs and that was that, and the Jets have not

722
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: been back to the playoffs since. They of course have

723
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,839
Speaker 1: their own disaster situation with Adam gaze Um. I mean,

724
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 1: Sam Donald was supposed to be the savior. I mean,

725
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: we've seen him for three years, pretty clear he's not

726
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: the savior in New York. He could be elsewhere. And

727
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: so the Jets were supposed to be the number one

728
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: dumpster fire in the league, and then along came to Houston, Texans.

729
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 1: You did leave out a major factor of why the

730
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: Jets might still hold that belt. They accidentally beat the Rams. Yeah,

731
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: so I forgot and lost out on Trevor laws Yes, yes, yes,

732
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 1: that somehow the jets two wins came against playoff teams

733
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: that now we're not only playoff teams, but two teams

734
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: that won games in the playoffs. They beat the Rams

735
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: and Browns, and of course, yes it did cost them.

736
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, I forgot. That's a great remember. I actually

737
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 1: have that on my notes, but I somehow skipped over that.

738
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: Was it hard to watch his pro day yesterday? I

739
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: want to of course I'm not watching his pro day.

740
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: Come on, man, I don't understand. You texted me that

741
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 1: there were seventeen teams there, like that can't be true.

742
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: That there's no way that there were there. The Chargers

743
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 1: were there? Why the Chargers there? I mean the only

744
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: thing I could think is that the scouts and the

745
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 1: teams are just people are desperate to get away from

746
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: their faces. Their Powell I want to call him, Colin

747
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 1: Powell was like I'm a mid round pick. Um. I

748
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 1: don't know. I just I can't imagine that this was

749
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: to actually scout more. Just like, hey man, I gotta

750
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: get the hell out of the house. I gotta go

751
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: pretend like I'm doing something with my job. And like

752
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: maybe they were able to pick up other scouting assignments

753
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 1: the day after day before something like that. I don't know, um,

754
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:56,280
Speaker 1: but very strange that, yes, the seventeen teams were watching

755
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence yesterday. So at any rate, my Jets were

756
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: slid to be the biggest dumpster fire and then the

757
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 1: Texans swoop in and it's been one train wreck after another.

758
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 1: We have some audio from the Texans this week. Um.

759
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: You know, obviously we've brought on Aaron Wilson earlier in

760
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 1: the show, and uh, the owner of the Texans speaks

761
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 1: and you're like, wow, is that guy in a trance?

762
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: You know, does somebody have like a mind control thing?

763
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: What's that movie with Denzel Washington um where he was

764
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: like a former soldier and they were cancer in Candidate? Yeah, yeah,

765
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 1: great story. Um, and that's what the owner looks like.

766
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I know it's I know, billionaires, it's difficult

767
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: to get through to them because they know everything. They're billionaires,

768
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 1: they have a lot of money. You can't tell them

769
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: anything they don't know. And it's got to be tough

770
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: for anybody to get the ear of cal McNair and

771
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: snap him out of this, like maybe a slap in

772
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 1: the face. Ga cow, wake up, dude. Um. And then

773
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: there's Jack Easterby Fellow who's just getting destroyed in the media.

774
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: I know nothing about it. I never heard his name

775
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: before the last like what year and a half, and

776
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: now he's everywhere because he has the ear of the

777
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 1: billionaire and he's telling him what to do. Here's what

778
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: our guest last hour, Aaron Wilson said about Jack Easterby

779
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: having mind control over the owner of the Texas No.

780
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't see that at all. I mean,

781
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 1: he's not going anywhere at all. He's no, he's going

782
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 1: to be here, be here for a long time. He's

783
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: under a six year contract. I don't. I don't see

784
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: anything changing with Jack Euston. I know this, he's not

785
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 1: stepping down. He won't be fired. A lot of people,

786
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: including Sports Illustrated, they definitely tried to take him down.

787
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: And you know, you also didn't see a lot of

788
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: negative pressed toward Bill O'Brien in those articles. If you

789
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: look at everything that's happened here, they've had a lot

790
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: of turmols, They've had a lot of upheaval. It's been

791
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:57,360
Speaker 1: too much turmol, too much tumult, and it's been a

792
00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 1: tough time for the franchise and tough time for the city. Yeah,

793
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 1: it's it's been a rough go for Houston. They lost

794
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 1: James Harden, They're about to lose Deshaun Watson. Um who

795
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 1: let's if we remove Deshaun Watson and James Harden. Who

796
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: who's the number one athlete in Houston right now, who's

797
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 1: like the most popular the face of the sports in

798
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: the city, Christian Would, I'll get the hell out. I mean,

799
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: John Wall has been there for like four minutes, so

800
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 1: it can't be him. Is there someone from the Houston Dynamo.

801
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. But by the way, speaking of Houston Dynamo,

802
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: there is a report that J. J. Wattson, Well, I

803
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 1: guess it's not a report. J J. Wattson wife plays

804
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: for the Chicago Fire, So don't count out the Bears

805
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: as a potential landing spot for J. J. Watt. You

806
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 1: could read into that what you will. I think the

807
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 1: Steelers are probably the favorites if he wants to play

808
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 1: with his brother or the Packers where what is from Wisconsin?

809
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 1: Of course, um, you know he's gonna have suitors. But

810
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: I like J. J. Watt was the face of the franchise.

811
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: He basically was like, I gotta get the hell out

812
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 1: of here, and they were like, okay, you can go.

813
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 1: And now who they have? They have nobody. I really

814
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on, Like maybe it's the small

815
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:17,760
Speaker 1: baseball player that But do they even like him? Kevin?

816
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 1: I mean in Houston, I think they have us against

817
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: the world mentality. I he's got a whiff of fraudulence.

818
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: Justin Verlander is very popular over there. Justin Verlander, of

819
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,359
Speaker 1: course that's a I mean, he was instrumental in one

820
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 1: of their UM World Series wins. Was it was he

821
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: not Yea? So Alex really Alex Bregman. They like him

822
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: over there. I mean it's it's hard to understand. You know,

823
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 1: pre pandemic, we would get Iowa. Sam started to go

824
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 1: to some breakfast spot and I noticed he was getting

825
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: good stuff and I was like, dude, you gotta get

826
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:58,800
Speaker 1: me one of those, so he would get me I

827
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 1: forget like some kind of same on which and it

828
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: was so good And oh is that what? It was

829
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 1: a Whole Foods burrito? Oh my god, it was I

830
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: don't do burritos in beans. It was a biscuit sandwich.

831
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: It was a biscuit sandwich. Okay. And I was Sam

832
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:16,320
Speaker 1: was like, that was awesome. If Alex Bregman were serving

833
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: you those breakfast sandwiches, would you know who he was?

834
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 1: I would not. If he was wearing a mask. No,

835
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 1: if he was not wearing a mask, camera on his shirt.

836
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 1: He's kind of a baby faced guy. I would recognize him.

837
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: I don't think most people want, but to be fair,

838
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,479
Speaker 1: they wouldn't recognize Mike Trout. And this goes into a bag.

839
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,920
Speaker 1: He's been in a lot of commercials, hasn't he He's no,

840
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: it's hard to describe it. I think most a lot

841
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,319
Speaker 1: of people wouldn't recognize a lot of baseball stars because

842
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: they don't market their players. Yet that it's on Rob Manfred,

843
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 1: it's not on Mike Trout. Um, Mike Trout. Also, I

844
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,799
Speaker 1: still remember it's funny. I know he's a great baseball player.

845
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 1: He doesn't have a postseason moment yet. I still think

846
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: of him taking that golf swing. Have you seen that

847
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: video that one fire back in Uh he was at

848
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 1: like top golf in Vegas and he just steps up

849
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 1: and first swing is like, oh my gosh, look like

850
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 1: us four yard drive. I will say selfishly as an

851
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 1: Angels and Charger fan, I look at Justin Herbert and go, man,

852
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:16,839
Speaker 1: I really hope they don't waste his career like they

853
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: did Mike Trout. My Angels did Mike Trout because I've

854
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: been no, no, it's but it's tough to feel like

855
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: you have phenoms on your team and they'll never actually

856
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 1: see postseason success. We'll see it's early. Yeah. I wrote

857
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:35,920
Speaker 1: a piece about two Super Bowl favorites. Chargers are right

858
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 1: there at the top. Dude, I like them a lot.

859
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,799
Speaker 1: I've never heard that before, Jason. I know you heard

860
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 1: it all the time, but uh, I'm very bullish on

861
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: the Chargers next year. Um so, uh listen, a lot

862
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: of fun football stuff we will get to Iowa say.

863
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 1: I know everybody are resident Big twelve expert. We need

864
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: to hear what he has to say on Chris Doyle,

865
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: the disgraced Iowa strength and condition and coach who was

866
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,439
Speaker 1: hired by urban Meyer and one day later stepped down.

867
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 1: Um It, I'm a little nervous for urban Meyer. I

868
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: don't want Trevor Lawrence to have a crappy experience where

869
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 1: he funnels through a million coaches. Um. I like Trevor

870
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 1: Lawrence a lot. Man, I'm gonna have to become something

871
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: of a Jacks fan just because of Trevor Lawrence. Um.

872
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,360
Speaker 1: But anyways, let's quickly pivot to the NBA and go

873
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: to the Lakers. I don't know if you guys saw this.

874
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: Last night, Lakers fell behind twenty to two and then

875
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 1: they ended up destroying the Grizzlies. They I saw this

876
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 1: incredible stat someone texted me, Uh, the Lakers in their

877
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 1: last five games. Okay, they are negative forty one in

878
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: the past five first quarters, negative forty one. They've won

879
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: all five. That's why I compared them to the Chiefs. Now,

880
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 1: the Chiefs don't really fall behind as much as they

881
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 1: just don't care and they don't cover. But there is

882
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: an apathetic I hope that applies apathetic feel to the Lakers.

883
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 1: And last year, no, lie, guys, I was locked into

884
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:05,320
Speaker 1: every Laker game. I gotta watch it Lebron Anthony Davis

885
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: this year, it's not appointment viewing. It's like, oh, the

886
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 1: Lakers are on um because we know they're gonna be fine,

887
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 1: They're gonna get to the playoffs, and UM, I'm gonna

888
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:19,400
Speaker 1: expand on this whole Uh should Lebron be the m

889
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 1: v P thing later in the show. It's somehow has

890
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: become like, uh, a hot take and you're a Lebron

891
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,399
Speaker 1: James ball washer if you say he's gonna win the MVP.

892
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 1: He's thirty six. All he has to do is stay healthy. Like,

893
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,439
Speaker 1: I don't know how many more NBA m v ps

894
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 1: can we have where the guy gets to the playoffs

895
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: and then poops his pants and then just you know,

896
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 1: vomits all over himself. Seriously, that's what we're doing. I mean,

897
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 1: I don't nobody's voting honest m VP. Just stop. It's

898
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:50,279
Speaker 1: not happening. It's not James Harden. I don't even know

899
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 1: if James Harden is an All Star. Gavin has he

900
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 1: played enough in Houston to be an All Star in

901
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:59,000
Speaker 1: the East, like Zach Lavine, who I would love to

902
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: do a whole entire sege and I am captain of

903
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 1: the zach Levine Fan Club, And I said on my

904
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 1: podcast this week, I had b J. Armstrong land and

905
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:07,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys heard it, but we

906
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,800
Speaker 1: got into it a little bit. We like to, you know,

907
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 1: friendly sparring, and I said, dude, zach Levine's not even

908
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 1: an All Star lock and he's averaging like five and five,

909
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 1: shooting ridiculous percentage from everywhere on the court. Is a

910
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,440
Speaker 1: supreme athlete, and he might not even be an All

911
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:30,359
Speaker 1: Star if zach Levine played with Bob Cuzy and those

912
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 1: guys did in fifties Kevin zach Levine's averaging fort points

913
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 1: a game. Now, I know people hate that. They're like, well, Jason,

914
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 1: you can't do that because Bob Couzy would have uh,

915
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 1: you know, he would have uh, you know, entry to

916
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 1: all the great stuff, and he would have access to

917
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: all the leaping stuff that zack Levine does. Like, no,

918
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 1: that's not how it works. You take the athlete from

919
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 1: the era and can they dominant in the current era.

920
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 1: At zach Levine right now would be the one of

921
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: the best players in the fifties, sixties, and in the seventies.

922
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:03,560
Speaker 1: He would be an All NBA guy, and in the

923
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 1: eighties he would be an All NBA guy. And now like,

924
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,840
Speaker 1: look at the nineteen eight nine I think I had

925
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,719
Speaker 1: to pull this up because some people were yelling at

926
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: me on social media. Look at the nineteen nine Gavin

927
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 1: All NBA Third Team. The guards are Mark Price and

928
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,400
Speaker 1: Dale Ellis, and I, as a guy who was a

929
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: fan of the basketball in the eighties, I remember both

930
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 1: of them. Dale Ellis was a really good shooter. Mark

931
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,320
Speaker 1: Price was a good floor general passer and a good shooter.

932
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 1: Zach Levine is a better player than both of them

933
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 1: by a mile a mile, and Zach Levine can barely

934
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: get to the All Star Game. That's how loaded the

935
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 1: league is right now. I mean the league is so

936
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,320
Speaker 1: stacked right now that Luca don Che was the m

937
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,439
Speaker 1: v P favorite. Gavin, don't tell me you gotta ticket

938
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:55,479
Speaker 1: on Luca. That was last year, right, you were early

939
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 1: on it. Everybody thought Luca was the favorite. This year,

940
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: I mean, he's not even in the top like seven,

941
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: they're barely I don't even think they're five yet. The

942
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:08,279
Speaker 1: league is loaded, and Lebron is the m v P

943
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:11,839
Speaker 1: of this loaded league. It can't be Kevin during he's

944
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 1: missing too many games. Maybe Joel Embide is a great case.

945
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 1: Uh Yo Kich has a very good case. Um, just

946
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:24,319
Speaker 1: let's remember Lebron's thirty six. It's never been done before

947
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,759
Speaker 1: thirty six. Michael Jordan had quit for the second time.

948
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 1: By six. Okay, give the man his due. Lebron is

949
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,640
Speaker 1: doing some stuff, folks. I mean, Dylan Brooks of the

950
00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 1: Memphis Grizzlies continues to talk trash to him. Did you

951
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: see it last night? Dylan Brooks was talking all this

952
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 1: trash again, and like fourth quarter, Lebron hits one of

953
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:49,640
Speaker 1: these patented one leg fadeaways, Dirk Davitsky style, and he

954
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,399
Speaker 1: just was like backpedaling, and of course Memphis calls time out.

955
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 1: Lebron turns to look at the Memphis bench and it's like,

956
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's just smiling and laughing and like, I

957
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 1: can't believe this guy's talking trash to me. I'm eating

958
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,359
Speaker 1: him up at thirties x UM. Lakers are the favorites, guys.

959
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 1: I know you hate it, I get it, but it's reality.

960
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 1: They're the best. Lebron is the goat. Coming up next

961
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:12,520
Speaker 1: year on Fox Sports Radio, I gotta talk about Russell Wilson. Um,

962
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 1: this is why this feels like a massive nontroversy. You

963
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:21,759
Speaker 1: like that nontroversy, but it keeps getting talked about. Why

964
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson ain't going anywhere. We'll talk about that next

965
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 1: year on Fox Sports Radio. Call on Farmers and you

979
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 1: that's the death, the one with bad words. So I

980
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 1: go to play it in the car last night on

981
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 1: the way home from dinner, and there's like a you

982
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 1: know a bad word that rhymes would suck in the

983
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: first like fifteen seconds, and I'm like, ah, the wife

984
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 1: yells at me, like, I don't my kids know what

985
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 1: songs have bad words? We watched a Brittany Spears dough

986
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,319
Speaker 1: How is that Okay? Well, here's the most fascinating thing.

987
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 1: Free Brittany. By the way, man, that's a tough one. Uh.

988
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 1: She that we were looking at what was controversial back then,

989
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:50,160
Speaker 1: and like her her romance with Justin Timberlake and she

990
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: was accused of cheating and that was a major scandal.

991
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:56,359
Speaker 1: And but I was just laughing about what was controversial

992
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 1: back in the late nineties, early two thousands to today

993
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 1: with TB and Megan the Stallion and the lyrics in

994
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:06,279
Speaker 1: their music compared to Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera. It's

995
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: just it's hilarious. So was it? Was it Britney's music

996
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 1: or like the outfits and the vibe? Yeah, the vibe

997
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 1: the schoolgirl And by the way, that's a lot on

998
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 1: the label and the industry back then to do that

999
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:21,640
Speaker 1: to a. I think she was eighteen when the video

1000
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,399
Speaker 1: came out, to be fair. But yeah, I mean, that's

1001
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 1: that's completely Jason, I'm not privy to all. This is

1002
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 1: Justin Timberlake canceled. Now is that? Is he like a

1003
00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:33,719
Speaker 1: big jerk? I think that there's like some some times,

1004
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 1: what did he do well? Gavin? You watched it? Wasn't there?

1005
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,800
Speaker 1: First of all? What channel is this that we watched

1006
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,920
Speaker 1: on Hulu? I don't know. If you have access to UM,

1007
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 1: I would I would search around though, because I can't

1008
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:49,040
Speaker 1: remember if it was originally on like Entertainment or what

1009
00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 1: UM might have been. What was that? Uh? You know what?

1010
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: It was a New York Times, your favorite magazine, the

1011
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 1: failing New York Times. Um No, but it's on Hulu.

1012
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:07,279
Speaker 1: It's a Hulu. But anyway, it's fascinating and it's really

1013
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 1: messed up. How back in the day it was, you know,

1014
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,280
Speaker 1: it was pretty obvious that they were blaming everything on Brittany,

1015
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,680
Speaker 1: even though it really should have been blamed on Justin

1016
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 1: so so Wait what I don't even know what Justin

1017
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: Timberlake did. It had to do with the cheating scandal

1018
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:28,680
Speaker 1: in and Soho she cheated on him? Uh? Yeah, Look,

1019
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to go too into it because I

1020
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 1: don't have all the facts straight on this, but she did. Yeah,

1021
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,840
Speaker 1: I think she she was with another guy, but I

1022
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,359
Speaker 1: don't know. Um and Jason, there's a current thing too,

1023
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: and Gavin, maybe you can add it on this that

1024
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: isn't her like she's trying to fight her father over

1025
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:48,760
Speaker 1: like fans. Interesting and this segment has completely been derailed.

1026
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:54,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, the conservative ship that when Brittany was going

1027
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: through her mental escapades back and then yes, which again,

1028
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 1: as you watch a documentary that is very sympathetic to Brittany,

1029
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: it is it is very much showing that maybe it

1030
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,760
Speaker 1: was more of the paparazzi's fault and she wasn't actually

1031
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 1: in a you know, um, but at that point, she

1032
00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:17,320
Speaker 1: was putting a conservatorship where her dad can control her

1033
00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:19,880
Speaker 1: finances and control all that. And she still is in that,

1034
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: and she's still even after going to Vegas, right and

1035
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 1: she did a residency there and and she seemed to

1036
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 1: have her life back in order, she still can't control.

1037
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: And so the Free Brittany movement is a little bit

1038
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: of a conspiracy theory that seems to be a little

1039
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:37,920
Speaker 1: bit you know real there there that that she doesn't

1040
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:41,920
Speaker 1: have uh, that she is basically being held against her

1041
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: will in certain areas of like I just looked this up.

1042
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: She's thirty nine and like her dad controls all her finance. Yeah.

1043
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 1: I think the overarching tone is that she's been a

1044
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: grown adult woman for a long time, yet they are

1045
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: like these patriarchs in her life who continue continue to

1046
00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:59,440
Speaker 1: sort of uh tug at the strings, like you know,

1047
00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:02,320
Speaker 1: pappati or her life, and it's not fairly. She's her

1048
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 1: own person, She's her own individual adult woman. It's uh,

1049
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 1: I'm being told it's on YouTube and it's also on

1050
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: FFX on who is okay, So you know, it's weird.

1051
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 1: The last time I waded into a document wade into

1052
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,720
Speaker 1: a documentary that I hadn't really seen much of was

1053
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:20,840
Speaker 1: the Tiger Woods one. And I had buddy who listens

1054
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: to all my podcasts, and this one is imported into

1055
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 1: the Straight firefeed and he was like, boy, that Tiger

1056
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:28,160
Speaker 1: Woods discussion. God he did. I don't know if you

1057
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,600
Speaker 1: were here that day, Sam. It was with not with Isaac,

1058
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: but um, okay, so my source uh is telling me

1059
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:41,960
Speaker 1: that she did not cheat, but he a your girl,

1060
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,400
Speaker 1: your wife is listening. She is a massive Brittany fan.

1061
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 1: So but I was enthralled by the documentary as well,

1062
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:50,240
Speaker 1: but I wanted to get my facts straights. We don't

1063
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:53,320
Speaker 1: want to be reporting figure just we're just a couple

1064
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 1: of guys. He slept with Jenna do Wan during their relationship. Um,

1065
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,600
Speaker 1: but Brittany was getting backlash for why it ended. So

1066
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 1: it was you know, when you watch the documentary, this

1067
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 1: is a great plug. We need to get a Hulu sponsorship.

1068
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: Oh Jenna d Juan Yeah, hell, she was married to

1069
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 1: that guy at Channing Tatum. That's right, Yeah, she, Jenna

1070
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,160
Speaker 1: Dawan is very cute. So here's the funny story. I

1071
00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 1: was working at US Weekly when Brittney had the melt

1072
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 1: out and I still remember like sitting there one day

1073
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: and then the New York Post because this was before

1074
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,680
Speaker 1: like the Internet was everything, right, you know, this was

1075
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 1: before social media. Um, you know Britney Spears like shaves

1076
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:38,160
Speaker 1: her head and it's like battling people. It was. It

1077
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:41,400
Speaker 1: was terrifying, like what is going on with Britney Spears? Right?

1078
00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:44,840
Speaker 1: We do have a guest coming up, and clearly, um,

1079
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:47,040
Speaker 1: we did not talk about Russell Wilson. We talked about

1080
00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 1: Britney Spears. But that's fine. Um, okay, So it's me

Speaker 1: of something on auto insurance. All right, let's welcome in

1121
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,360
Speaker 1: the Man, the myth, the legend. He covers the Lakers

1122
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 1: for spect for sports Net l A. Mike Trudel. Mike,

1123
01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:19,680
Speaker 1: how are you, man? Yeah, it's it's been a minute. Um.

1124
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 1: You know, we'd love to bring you in and and

1125
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:25,480
Speaker 1: chop up the Lakers. Another strange game last night. Uh,

1126
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:27,720
Speaker 1: you know, they fall behind twenty to two, and next

1127
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 1: thing you know, oh, they're leading at the end of

1128
01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,800
Speaker 1: the third quarter. Um, I do want to talk. I

1129
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:33,840
Speaker 1: want to open before we get to Lebron being the

1130
01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 1: VP and talent Horton Tucker, who everybody loves. Remember, the

1131
01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:41,439
Speaker 1: perception was the Lakers became an offensive team this year

1132
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 1: when they lost some very good defenders from what was

1133
01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:48,800
Speaker 1: the defensive team last year. Mike, there's still number one

1134
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:51,800
Speaker 1: in the league in defensive efficiency. Do we need to

1135
01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: give Frank Vogels some props here? Yeah, for sure. Yeah,

1136
01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 1: Frank Vogel, I found didn't get enough props from what

1137
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,120
Speaker 1: he was able to do last year in putting together

1138
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,439
Speaker 1: the team. And this is a different team personnel wise

1139
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,000
Speaker 1: in terms of you lose the rim protection, the straight

1140
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:09,640
Speaker 1: rim protection of Dwight Howard and Javille McGee, but you

1141
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:11,480
Speaker 1: gain in a lot of other ways, Like they are

1142
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 1: a lockdown, perimeter defensive team. Now they also follow out less.

1143
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 1: They give up you were good looks from three, so

1144
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:19,880
Speaker 1: they are giving up more in the paint Jason. But

1145
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:22,800
Speaker 1: overall the mix has worked really well and that I

1146
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:24,880
Speaker 1: do think it's a credit to Vocal and Look, they

1147
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:28,040
Speaker 1: really also just have excellent personnel on that end. The

1148
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 1: guy that I would say to me has made the

1149
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:34,800
Speaker 1: biggest offensive difference has been Dennis Shredder. Now you might think, first, okay,

1150
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:37,040
Speaker 1: Marcus Saul former defensive Player of the Year, and he

1151
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:39,880
Speaker 1: has been good defensively, but Shrewder is just getting into

1152
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 1: people ninety four feet. Um, he can switch on to

1153
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:45,880
Speaker 1: big somehow. I just depite being about six one, he

1154
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,760
Speaker 1: is all over the place, he's feisty, he competes in

1155
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 1: every place. So, um, he's been a big addition on

1156
01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:52,640
Speaker 1: that end. And when you put him on the floor

1157
01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:55,200
Speaker 1: with like an Alice Crusoe or a KCP who are

1158
01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 1: also pretty tenacious on that end. They really start things nicely.

1159
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 1: And look, it doesn't hurt to have a d flying

1160
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:03,400
Speaker 1: in from the week side and Lebron, like Lebron has

1161
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:06,200
Speaker 1: been better on defense than people realize. Also, so yeah, man,

1162
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 1: it is their their DNA is still on the defensive end,

1163
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:11,920
Speaker 1: and then they can sort of score when they are

1164
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 1: in the mood. You know, they don't have trouble scoring. Um,

1165
01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:17,440
Speaker 1: it's just you know, they like that. They like to

1166
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:19,840
Speaker 1: make things interesting sometimes on that end, Jason, Yeah, make

1167
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 1: things interesting. Mike, we're talking about the last five games.

1168
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:25,600
Speaker 1: I saw the stat there minus forty one in the

1169
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:28,840
Speaker 1: first quarter and they're five and oh in those games. Um,

1170
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:30,640
Speaker 1: what do you what do you think is going on?

1171
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:34,000
Speaker 1: Is this just like a post football like maybe a

1172
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,880
Speaker 1: quarter of the mile marker malaise here perhaps? Uh, And

1173
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 1: they know they're better than everyone and they are the

1174
01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:43,560
Speaker 1: defending champs, and uh they're tinkering with some new rotations,

1175
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:47,920
Speaker 1: and um, what do you attribute these slow starts to? Well?

1176
01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:49,960
Speaker 1: I mean, so look, you you obviously know sports, right,

1177
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:51,960
Speaker 1: you know that there's this as you just as you

1178
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:54,720
Speaker 1: just hinted at there, like there is a human nature

1179
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,000
Speaker 1: element to part of this. But to me, the biggest

1180
01:04:57,080 --> 01:05:00,680
Speaker 1: thing h and this goes more in arenas then in

1181
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 1: road arenas. Specifically for the Lakers, it's just not having

1182
01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,400
Speaker 1: fans there, like when you're when you're in your home

1183
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 1: arena and another team comes in. In this case, the

1184
01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 1: Lakers just played three straight teams that we're playing almost

1185
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:15,400
Speaker 1: all young guys that are hungry, uh and just sort

1186
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:17,280
Speaker 1: of excited to be out on the floor against Lebron

1187
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 1: and the defending champs. And these teams are flying around.

1188
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:22,160
Speaker 1: You're like, okay see and Memphis in Detroit. These guys

1189
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,360
Speaker 1: are all just just playing at a really high effort level.

1190
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 1: And I think the Lakers looked out there and typically

1191
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:30,880
Speaker 1: you can look up into the stands right and get

1192
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of that juice in the arena, and

1193
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:35,400
Speaker 1: it's just dead in there, like I'm at these home games,

1194
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 1: and of course it is right without the without the

1195
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:40,720
Speaker 1: typical um, not just the court side fans for the Lakers,

1196
01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:42,880
Speaker 1: but the three hundred level Laker fans who do such

1197
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 1: a great job of screaming their heads off off there.

1198
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:47,840
Speaker 1: And that's just it's just is the letdown and we

1199
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:49,800
Speaker 1: we understand all of this like it's all within the

1200
01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:52,360
Speaker 1: context of the pandemic. I'm just happy they were able

1201
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 1: to play games to start, But there's you can't tell

1202
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:56,800
Speaker 1: me that the that that doesn't have an effect on

1203
01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:59,720
Speaker 1: the psyche of the players. That isn't quite the same

1204
01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 1: when are on the road, and you know, you kind

1205
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:03,960
Speaker 1: of have that mentality going in that you gotta you

1206
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 1: gotta play better from the start. So it's really about

1207
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 1: the fans, Jason, That to me is been the biggest thing,

1208
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: a great point. We're talking trade Sports Net l A. Alright, Mike,

1209
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:14,920
Speaker 1: let me ask you about the fans. I know a

1210
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 1: Laker season ticket holder who seems optimistic that fans at

1211
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 1: some point here later in the season are going to

1212
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 1: be let into the arena. Or do you foresee the

1213
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: playoffs where we're gonna have I don't know, three thousand,

1214
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 1: five thousand, ten thousand fans in NBA games. Yeah, I'm

1215
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:32,440
Speaker 1: gonna so I'm gonna give you a real boring non answer,

1216
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,880
Speaker 1: and this one I have no clue. I really don't.

1217
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:36,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I I do know, Like what we just

1218
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:38,960
Speaker 1: signed in New York, you know, maybe that is something

1219
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 1: that can be used at the template, but that just

1220
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,560
Speaker 1: seems like it's at a high sort of government, um

1221
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsome level, right of of figuring out what they're

1222
01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:48,120
Speaker 1: gonna do not just here but up in the Bay

1223
01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:50,200
Speaker 1: Area for you know, for the warriors or for the

1224
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:52,440
Speaker 1: kids like that is a that's a high level decision.

1225
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:54,919
Speaker 1: I think we can all hope that that will happen

1226
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:58,320
Speaker 1: if numbers continue to go down, if the vaccine continues

1227
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:00,720
Speaker 1: to be out in in big number, first, if people

1228
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:02,800
Speaker 1: continue to wear masks and be safe. So that's to me,

1229
01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 1: it's kind of a larger California um at you know,

1230
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:08,360
Speaker 1: written large society question, Jason, But I certainly hope so,

1231
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,080
Speaker 1: man like I really miss having the fans like everybody else.

1232
01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:14,360
Speaker 1: Wow writ large. That may be the first reference to

1233
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 1: that phrase here on the show. Well done, Mike. Um. Yeah,

1234
01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 1: I think I saw Steve Nash quote where he said

1235
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:23,760
Speaker 1: something to the effect of, you know, uh, Golden State

1236
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:28,200
Speaker 1: is adding more fans for tonight's big Kevin Durant returns home.

1237
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:30,040
Speaker 1: I think three thousand fans is the number I saw.

1238
01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:33,760
Speaker 1: Is that accurate? You know? I think I saw that

1239
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:37,640
Speaker 1: as well. You would have to fact check yourself there, um,

1240
01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:41,480
Speaker 1: because your number. But yeah, if it's if it's starting

1241
01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:42,960
Speaker 1: to happen, like I get it. A lot of this

1242
01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 1: just has to do with the you know, hospital beds,

1243
01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:47,520
Speaker 1: in the number of cases and all that. It's it's

1244
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:50,200
Speaker 1: down to it's pretty scientific on that level. So, h

1245
01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:52,200
Speaker 1: it does seem like things are going in the right way.

1246
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:53,680
Speaker 1: You just don't want to jinx it and you want

1247
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 1: to you want to kind of hope that it continues

1248
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 1: to because it's been a Look, it's it's been a

1249
01:07:57,240 --> 01:08:00,400
Speaker 1: lot to endure for for everybody and certainly is especially

1250
01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:02,920
Speaker 1: those that have lot somebody. So just hoping that that

1251
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:04,960
Speaker 1: hoping that it continues to go the right way. All right,

1252
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:07,920
Speaker 1: everybody's favorite player tellent Horton Tucker starting to get more

1253
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:11,919
Speaker 1: minutes still feels uneven. Um, I don't know, Mike, where

1254
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 1: are you on Horton Tucker? And you know, where do

1255
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,360
Speaker 1: you think he fits in this rotation? Because I don't know,

1256
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 1: come playoffs, I do wonder you know a lot of

1257
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 1: coaches Shorten it is Horton Tucker gonna get minutes in

1258
01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:25,920
Speaker 1: the postseason. Well, this what you just touched on is

1259
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 1: the luxury of being the Lakers right now, and that

1260
01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 1: he you know, is basically the eleventh guy. Now maybe

1261
01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 1: he's moved up to tenth or ninth. You know, Keith

1262
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:37,360
Speaker 1: Morris was the one that was out of the rotation

1263
01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:41,559
Speaker 1: completely last night PhD TFD did only get six minutes.

1264
01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:44,759
Speaker 1: But in previous games, whether it's been against good teams

1265
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 1: or bad teams, um, he's been great. So I don't

1266
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 1: worry about him at all as in terms of like

1267
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:53,000
Speaker 1: getting minutes in certain games. But what the Lakers can

1268
01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:55,320
Speaker 1: do and what Frank Vogan can do, UM is if

1269
01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:57,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't seem to have it on a certain night

1270
01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,640
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, okay, no problem. You just extend the

1271
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,800
Speaker 1: minutes for shooter you you play. Westerley Matthews has been good,

1272
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:05,240
Speaker 1: um the last week or so. More like that. They

1273
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:07,680
Speaker 1: have so many options. But I do think, like you

1274
01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 1: have to remember, he's twenty and just turned twenty. The

1275
01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:13,360
Speaker 1: next youngest player on the Lakers is twenty five, and

1276
01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:16,479
Speaker 1: that's Caruso. UM. So he is the baby of the team.

1277
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 1: But they really loved the way that he plays on

1278
01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:21,800
Speaker 1: both ends, and he's kind of like a sponge right now.

1279
01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:24,719
Speaker 1: He doesn't talk a lot in practice. He just basically listens,

1280
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:28,040
Speaker 1: especially when Lebron is speaking and he's and he's just

1281
01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 1: you can see it all starting to come together already

1282
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 1: for him. And it's it's ah the fact that the

1283
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 1: Lakers were able to get him at number forty six.

1284
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:39,000
Speaker 1: And you know Jesse busts Is he's the assistant GM

1285
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 1: and director of scouting, and then Ropail Lincoln, Like, they've

1286
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 1: managed to find some real gems there the last couple

1287
01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:45,800
Speaker 1: of years. By the way, Jordan Clarkson who was ripping

1288
01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:48,960
Speaker 1: it up for Utah right now several years ago. So

1289
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:52,080
Speaker 1: they're like they've been they've been finding guys in that range. Um,

1290
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 1: I could go on, but I won't, you know, I

1291
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:55,720
Speaker 1: won't because you could ask me about something else. Yeah,

1292
01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:00,679
Speaker 1: they really like what he's doing. Man, But here Caruso

1293
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: this year th h T all right, now, it's time

1294
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 1: to get to the main attraction. Lebron James playing out

1295
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: of his mind at thirty six. Uh. I was trying

1296
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:11,280
Speaker 1: to make a case that he's not putting up these

1297
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:13,640
Speaker 1: heavy minutes just for the m v P and that

1298
01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 1: he they want to win and get that number one

1299
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:18,080
Speaker 1: seed again. Um, I don't think you want the two

1300
01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:19,960
Speaker 1: seed and have to potentially face the Clippers in the

1301
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:23,240
Speaker 1: second round. UM could be wrong, but where are you

1302
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 1: in this whole Lebron m VP discussion? Um? First of all,

1303
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:29,120
Speaker 1: do you have a vote for the m v P?

1304
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:32,760
Speaker 1: And second of all, who'd you vote for last year? So?

1305
01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 1: I used to have votes way back in the day,

1306
01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:38,599
Speaker 1: but the NBA changed policies to take both away from anybody,

1307
01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:41,720
Speaker 1: UM that is a team, broadcaster or employee, So I

1308
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 1: no longer can vote. UM. So you know, all I

1309
01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:47,000
Speaker 1: can do is try to influence my friends in the

1310
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 1: media and such and putting put myself out on Twitter,

1311
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:52,320
Speaker 1: back out, I mean my So, here's the way I

1312
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:54,680
Speaker 1: would describe it. First of all, I don't think the

1313
01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:57,439
Speaker 1: Lebron with the Lakers are thinking at all about who

1314
01:10:57,479 --> 01:10:59,720
Speaker 1: their opponent is going to be in the playoffs. I

1315
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 1: don't know how much they're focused on even like the

1316
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:06,759
Speaker 1: number one seed. What I see Lebron is there's almost

1317
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 1: a legacy building element to it, Like it's just it's

1318
01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:13,280
Speaker 1: so I found myself just appreciating being there watching this

1319
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,200
Speaker 1: and being like you got, we got we realize what's happening, right,

1320
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:19,000
Speaker 1: Like this guy, this guy's in his eighteenth year and

1321
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:21,400
Speaker 1: he's just popping off for a hammer dunk in the

1322
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,799
Speaker 1: fourth quarter of a game. They're up double digits because

1323
01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:28,120
Speaker 1: of him. Uh, it's just it's so unprecedented. And I

1324
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 1: know that we just saw Tom Brady in the Super Bowl.

1325
01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 1: I think you put that in the same class, but

1326
01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:34,280
Speaker 1: Tom seems to be you know, he's doing that with

1327
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:39,800
Speaker 1: with like I don't know until in physical Lebron still

1328
01:11:39,880 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 1: seems to be like fifty fifty. I mean maybe maybe

1329
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:45,840
Speaker 1: sixty forty. I don't know, Like the range seems to

1330
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:47,840
Speaker 1: be going up. But it's just it's like he still

1331
01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:51,280
Speaker 1: has so much bounce for somebody at this stage, and

1332
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:53,680
Speaker 1: the mental part of it is just a whole is

1333
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,599
Speaker 1: just like it is insane. So I'm I've just been

1334
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:59,360
Speaker 1: appreciating it and enjoying it. I thought he should. I

1335
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,760
Speaker 1: thought he was davy Be last year. And so here's

1336
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:05,960
Speaker 1: here's the two the thirty second explanations for why Janice

1337
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:09,160
Speaker 1: had a better net rating and better advanced stats. Okay, great,

1338
01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:11,479
Speaker 1: I understand, but here's the reason why. Is because the

1339
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:15,320
Speaker 1: Bucks just beat really bad Heast teams by thirty a bunch.

1340
01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:17,679
Speaker 1: When they beat the Knicks, they beat Charlotte, they beat Chicago.

1341
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:19,240
Speaker 1: You can go back and check the game launch from

1342
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,679
Speaker 1: last year, and that's where that net rating came from. Because,

1343
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 1: and give you honest credit, he was great. He pushes

1344
01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:26,840
Speaker 1: really hard every game, and so that's what happened, right

1345
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:28,400
Speaker 1: They would make these they would get these big leads

1346
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:30,360
Speaker 1: to be like, oh wow, Milwaukee has a plus head

1347
01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,040
Speaker 1: net rating as a team, and oh Janice is a

1348
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:34,080
Speaker 1: dance numbers are better. Well, so the Lakers had a

1349
01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:37,160
Speaker 1: plus seven uh in Lebron's numbers weren't too far behind.

1350
01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 1: But that seems to be what people gave the tiebreaker

1351
01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 1: as opposed to the tiebreaker being who is the better player,

1352
01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:44,680
Speaker 1: um and whose team is better? And the Lakers were

1353
01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:46,479
Speaker 1: about a game and a half back in Milwaukee while

1354
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 1: playing against the Western Conference, So I thought that he

1355
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:50,720
Speaker 1: should have won last year. UM. So I think there's

1356
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:52,320
Speaker 1: some of that baked into this year, some of it

1357
01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 1: as the playoff performance, and then some of it is

1358
01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:56,040
Speaker 1: the fact that he's just been great this year as well.

1359
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,519

01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:35,439
Speaker 1: went through and found the teams that may want him.

1373

Speaker 1: It ain't that robust as you think. That's next to

01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 1: I'm not a guy. I'm not a big Collid fan.

Speaker 1: and stuff. Right, That's what I need, more and more

1394
01:14:53,320 --> 01:14:56,479
Speaker 1: and more of that more kalid Um back here on

1395
01:14:56,720 --> 01:14:58,680
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. I'm trying to look through my notes,

1396
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:00,640
Speaker 1: see what else we haven't touched on. We're gonna do

1397
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:04,720
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson here shortly. Um, this Carson Wentz stuff. It

1398
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:09,080
Speaker 1: just feels like total garbage, does it not? Who wants

1399
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:12,240
Speaker 1: a broken quarterback with a bad contract and a rich

1400
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,800
Speaker 1: injury history, Like, I don't see what the market is

1401
01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:18,800
Speaker 1: for him. I mean, does Belichick take a swing at

1402
01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:22,599
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz on a by low. Why would you fire

1403
01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:27,160
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson if you brought in a quarterback guy Nick

1404
01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:31,599
Speaker 1: Sirianni to work with Carson Wentz? Or do you say,

1405
01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:33,639
Speaker 1: you know what, let's work with Jalen Hurts and build

1406
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:37,360
Speaker 1: around a quarterback, a second round quarterback who's super cheap,

1407
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:41,800
Speaker 1: and we can fortify other areas. Eagles are a bit

1408
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:44,360
Speaker 1: of a mess. But you could say that about half

1409
01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 1: the league right now. Um, I guess I didn't give

1410
01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:50,600
Speaker 1: Tom Brady enough credit for the Super Bowl. Um, he

1411
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:53,360
Speaker 1: had the greatest first half I think it's Super Bowl

1412
01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:56,519
Speaker 1: history sixteen or twenty and three t ds. That was

1413
01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:58,800
Speaker 1: the first time a quarterback at that completed eight of

1414
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,760
Speaker 1: his passes and three touchdo in a half. And you

1415
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:06,400
Speaker 1: know the problem with Brady is you just run out

1416
01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:09,200
Speaker 1: of accolades for the guy. Like what else can you say?

1417
01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:12,160
Speaker 1: He's the goat? We know he's not the best athlete

1418
01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,200
Speaker 1: in sports? Is he the best player in team sports history?

1419
01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:18,640
Speaker 1: Of course he said this for two decades. Who can

1420
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:22,679
Speaker 1: match that MESSI and Ronaldo are not playing for two decades,

1421
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:27,120
Speaker 1: that's for sure. Jordan quit twice and he was done it.

1422
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:29,639
Speaker 1: I mean unless you want to count the wizard's years

1423
01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:32,920
Speaker 1: when he came back. Is there an argument against him

1424
01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:36,920
Speaker 1: being the greatest leader of all time in sports? Because

1425
01:16:36,920 --> 01:16:41,559
Speaker 1: how do you quantify a leader? Well, look at m J. Right,

1426
01:16:41,680 --> 01:16:44,880
Speaker 1: we watched the Last Dance. There were definitely aspects of

1427
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:49,280
Speaker 1: him not being a great leader. There were the Pippin stuff.

1428
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 1: There was, you know, there was I mean, I guess

1429
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,719
Speaker 1: you could say he could he led by striking fear

1430
01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:03,200
Speaker 1: into teammates. Right, I'm gonna I'm gonna embarrass you, get

1431
01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:06,400
Speaker 1: your act together, um calling out teammates. Right, there is

1432
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:08,680
Speaker 1: that you can lead by fear. I don't think that's

1433
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:12,519
Speaker 1: a great strategy. I mean I think Kobe had some

1434
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:14,679
Speaker 1: of that as well. I didn't want to be friends

1435
01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:19,479
Speaker 1: with his teammates. But there's something about Brady. You know,

1436
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,160
Speaker 1: Rob Parker likes to knock him for for for miss

1437
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:27,360
Speaker 1: for losing super Bowls. He's gotten to ten. Rob. I

1438
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:31,320
Speaker 1: like Rob Parker. He I'm embarrassed for his Tom Brady.

1439
01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:35,679
Speaker 1: We're friends, we text. You know, he's interesting. Um, he's

1440
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:38,600
Speaker 1: a veteran. But the stuff that like he's Robert or

1441
01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 1: you know, like that's just looking at a number. That's

1442
01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:45,400
Speaker 1: just the same amount of titles. Dude, how many Super

1443
01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:51,040
Speaker 1: Bowl MVP does the guy have? He has more of

1444
01:17:51,080 --> 01:18:00,439
Speaker 1: those than Montana has. Champions h are your host with him?

Speaker 1: don't anticipate a lot of great updates this hour Isaac.

1468
01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,320
Speaker 1: Although we're waiting on pins and needles for Carson Wentz news,

1471
01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:33,080
Speaker 1: I was also just scrolling through Instagram during the break

1472
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 1: and Kendall Jenner shout out, oh my gosh, did you

1473
01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:41,400
Speaker 1: see what she posted? I was in and I'm not.

1474
01:19:41,479 --> 01:19:43,160
Speaker 1: I'm not. Wasn't like a big fan of them. I

1475
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:47,840
Speaker 1: don't follow them, but I guess recently something happened, so

1476
01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:50,800
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, follow Kendall Jenner. And then she

1477
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:54,160
Speaker 1: just posted some of the spiciest content that is just like, oh,

1478
01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:57,479
Speaker 1: I think the kids call it a thirst trap if

1479
01:19:57,520 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 1: you will. There was a photo of her in him

1480
01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 1: this week and uh no it was Kim and Courtney

1481
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 1: or something like that, and it was like, somehow, some

1482
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:09,559
Speaker 1: way we found each other and then someone just wrote,

1483
01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:13,599
Speaker 1: aren't you sisters like that? Yeah? I never watched their show,

1484
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 1: but Instagram has had a strong pull on me lately.

1485
01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 1: It's just easy. It's super easily digestible. And um, you

1486
01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:26,559
Speaker 1: could just you're not doom scrolling like you are on Twitter.

1487
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:32,559
Speaker 1: I love doom scrolling. Um, do we have any Oh?

1488
01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:35,200
Speaker 1: The phrase thank you to a shout out in my

1489
01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:38,000
Speaker 1: Instagram d M. The phrase that Mike Trudelle used was

1490
01:20:38,200 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 1: writt large just sounds cool, sounds very legal, ease. What

1491
01:20:42,920 --> 01:20:46,200
Speaker 1: does that mean? Writ large? Is that a word? It's

1492
01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:49,080
Speaker 1: a phrase. I think it's a I think he's on

1493
01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:54,680
Speaker 1: NFL network. Oh that that's ratt lewis. I think it's

1494
01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:59,040
Speaker 1: a Latin phrase. Um, I thought the youth's made it up. No, no, no,

1495
01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:02,240
Speaker 1: it's not one like thirst trap. Thirst trap is a

1496
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:05,040
Speaker 1: youth thing. Yes that is. How do I not know

1497
01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:08,880
Speaker 1: my Latin college basketball all over the board. I'm looking

1498

01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:25,439
Speaker 1: total on the screen. Pretty cool. Um. I will just

1502
01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 1: say March Madness is going to happen this year. I'm

1503
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:32,040
Speaker 1: so geeked before we get to the NFL Iowa say,

1504
01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:34,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, how into college hoops are you? I know

1505
01:21:34,280 --> 01:21:37,920
Speaker 1: you're an Iowa fan, obviously definitely following who's sort of

1506
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:41,280
Speaker 1: leading in each conference. I always thought follow teams at

1507
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:43,680
Speaker 1: large and sort of their trends over individual players, which

1508
01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:46,360
Speaker 1: is probably a flaw of mine. That's good because the

1509
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,720
Speaker 1: best players leave quickly, right. I do know. I do

1510
01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:50,639
Speaker 1: know some players, but I follow sort of the trends

1511
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:52,360
Speaker 1: of teams and like where they're going, and you know,

1512
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:54,720
Speaker 1: like different teams in the Big Tan the have been

1513
01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 1: in little ruts here and there and who's breaking out.

1514
01:21:57,640 --> 01:22:00,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, I've been following college basketball pretty closely. Yeah,

1515
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:03,040
Speaker 1: we'll have to get a college hoops guest on how

1516
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:04,680
Speaker 1: do you think I finished in the top three of

1517
01:22:04,760 --> 01:22:07,960
Speaker 1: the Fox Sports Radio n c A. Brackett challenged two

1518
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:10,320
Speaker 1: of the last three years when it was actually held. Wow,

1519
01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:12,040
Speaker 1: is that I didn't know that that was a real thing.

1520
01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:14,479
Speaker 1: I finished second my first time doing it, and then

1521
01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,840
Speaker 1: I finished third. Okay, well I will enter this. And

1522
01:22:17,880 --> 01:22:19,600
Speaker 1: it came down to the national title game where I

1523
01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:21,880
Speaker 1: actually had a chance to win it both times, no way,

1524
01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 1: and then I got bumped to those places some good

1525
01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:28,080
Speaker 1: coin on the line, I would assume prizes. Yeah, it's

1526
01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:31,840
Speaker 1: because you can't can't gamble on it. M Yeah, we're

1527
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,439
Speaker 1: at work, you can't gamble. But it's a good year

1528
01:22:35,520 --> 01:22:39,320
Speaker 1: for college hoops because U n C is down, Duke

1529
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:45,679
Speaker 1: is way down. Kentucky is Kentucky's sub the sec. Okay,

1530
01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:47,640
Speaker 1: I had a dream last night, and this was just

1531
01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:52,040
Speaker 1: a fleeting dream that they put Kentucky in that play

1532
01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:55,760
Speaker 1: in game, and the play an opponent would face the

1533
01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:59,240
Speaker 1: number one seed and like everybody was upset because it's like, okay,

1534
01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:01,599
Speaker 1: well you Kentucky, he has five star recruits. That's not fair.

1535
01:23:01,680 --> 01:23:04,599
Speaker 1: So my dream was that Kentucky won the playing game

1536
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:06,599
Speaker 1: and then face the number one seed and beat them

1537
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:09,400
Speaker 1: and everybody was outraged. I don't know how that became

1538
01:23:09,439 --> 01:23:12,040
Speaker 1: a dream. I have been really had a dream that's

1539
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:14,679
Speaker 1: very detailed and not weird, like you know your dreams

1540
01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:17,240
Speaker 1: are usually I don't make any sense. Yeah, remember that

1541
01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 1: one I had about the alligator under the bed. That

1542
01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:23,439
Speaker 1: one is a little bit more dream ish. Oh okay, um, yeah,

1543
01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:25,519
Speaker 1: I don't know anyway. I don't think Kentucky's gonna make

1544
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:28,320
Speaker 1: the tournaments. They're not. They don't. They're like four and nine.

1545
01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:30,599
Speaker 1: They have to win the SEC tournament. I think, yes,

1546
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:32,800
Speaker 1: I don't is that possible. I need to look at

1547
01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:34,840
Speaker 1: the top of the But they haven't been competitive in

1548
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:37,559
Speaker 1: the SEC. They've been they just had a really rough

1549
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:40,080
Speaker 1: start to the year. Their nonconference wasn't good. So and

1550
01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:42,479
Speaker 1: it's not like Kalipari could just coach them up. We've

1551
01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:44,160
Speaker 1: talked about. This is not a knock on him. He's

1552
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:46,240
Speaker 1: a great recruiter as an x as and those guy

1553
01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:49,839
Speaker 1: he's not amazing. Well, he he has had young players

1554
01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:51,880
Speaker 1: in the past, you have just gone one year there

1555
01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:53,920
Speaker 1: and then gone to the n b A. Perhaps he

1556
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:55,640
Speaker 1: doesn't have those guys this year, so he does have

1557
01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:57,240
Speaker 1: to coach him up, and it's taking a little longer

1558
01:23:57,280 --> 01:23:59,200
Speaker 1: than he'd like. Yeah, And it's so funny because some

1559
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:02,439
Speaker 1: of the really good ones like Devin Booker, didn't do

1560
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,240
Speaker 1: much at Kentucky, and then they get to the NBA

1561
01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:08,479
Speaker 1: outside of that system and it's like, oh goodness, gracious,

1562
01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:10,519
Speaker 1: he's amazing. All right, let's get to the NFL. And

1563
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:14,080
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson I will say I'm trying to be a

1564
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:17,280
Speaker 1: positive beacon of light in we had a lot of

1565
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:23,599
Speaker 1: negativity in Um don't need to rehash it, and I'm

1566
01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:26,720
Speaker 1: trying to be, you know, glass half full guy, but

1567
01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:31,560
Speaker 1: this Russell Wilson stuff actually made me upset, Like and

1568
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:33,880
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be negative Nancy the guy who's

1569
01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:37,000
Speaker 1: all angry, but it just seemed like a whole lot

1570
01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:40,120
Speaker 1: of nothing. So here's the audio. Russell Wilson wanted a

1571
01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:43,640
Speaker 1: radio show and said he was unhappy, which show Dan

1572
01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: Patrick and said he was unhappy with how the season unfolded.

1573
01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 1: He's not getting the help he needs and like it

1574
01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:54,840
Speaker 1: was all a lot of accurate stuff, and here's Russell

1575
01:24:54,920 --> 01:24:59,400
Speaker 1: Wilson pop it off. I think that ultimately for me personally,

1576
01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:00,880
Speaker 1: you know, I think that I want to be able

1577
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:02,720
Speaker 1: to be involved because at the end of the day,

1578
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:05,240
Speaker 1: it's your legacy, it's your team's legacy, it's you know,

1579
01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:07,280
Speaker 1: it's the guys you get to go into the huddle

1580
01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:08,680
Speaker 1: with and the end of the day that those guys

1581
01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:12,479
Speaker 1: you gotta trust. Are you involved in personnel decisions? Have

1582
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:15,679
Speaker 1: you been involved in personnel decisions? Not? Not as much?

1583
01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:17,720
Speaker 1: I don't, you know. I think that uh, you know

1584
01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:20,840
Speaker 1: you want to be involved us. Yeah, I think it helps.

1585
01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:23,680
Speaker 1: I think it helps you to be involved more. Um.

1586
01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 1: But I think that's that dialogue should should happen more

1587
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:29,439
Speaker 1: often in my think. Yeah, I definitely believe they've gotten

1588
01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:31,759
Speaker 1: calls for sure. I didn't think that, you know, anythink

1589
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:35,280
Speaker 1: any time you're a player that tries to produce every

1590
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:37,519
Speaker 1: week and has done it for you know, consistently, I

1591
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:39,240
Speaker 1: think people are gonna call, for sure, And I think

1592
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:42,559
Speaker 1: it's part of the process. You're not available, are you? Well,

1593
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,559
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I'm available or not. That's a question.

1594
01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:48,400
Speaker 1: But also I think more anything else is um. You know,

1595
01:25:48,439 --> 01:25:50,160
Speaker 1: I think the end of the day, you want to win.

1596
01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:55,960
Speaker 1: I can't fault him for any of that. Russell Wilson

1597
01:25:56,760 --> 01:25:59,840
Speaker 1: is feeling the same way. Aaron Rodgers is feeling same. Well,

1598
01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:03,360
Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks of feeling, Hey, Tom Brady can go

1599
01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:05,439
Speaker 1: from New England to Tampa and say, hey, give me

1600
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:09,960
Speaker 1: Gronk and can we get Antonio Brown? And how about

1601
01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:14,000
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette. Tom Brady can say that stuff, Tampa can

1602
01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:16,840
Speaker 1: act on it, and then they can win the Super Bowl.

1603
01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:19,360
Speaker 1: And what happens in the Super Bowl, Oh four, Nette

1604
01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:24,280
Speaker 1: had a great game, scored Antonio Brown, scored Gronk two touchdowns.

1605
01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:29,799
Speaker 1: And it's like, why don't other quarterbacks have that ability

1606
01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:32,080
Speaker 1: to just say hey, why aren't we doing this? And

1607
01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:34,160
Speaker 1: you can say, well, Brady's one of ton he's got

1608
01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,799
Speaker 1: he had six super Bowls. You're gonna listen to him. Okay,

1609
01:26:37,880 --> 01:26:42,080
Speaker 1: Well what is Seattle been without Russell Wilson? What has

1610
01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:45,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay done? Is? What is green Bay gonna do

1611
01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:48,000
Speaker 1: without Aaron Rodgers? Like, of course they should have input

1612
01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:52,519
Speaker 1: and you can't screw it up the way Houston did. Hey, Deshan,

1613
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,439
Speaker 1: what do you think? What should we do? Who should

1614
01:26:56,479 --> 01:26:59,640
Speaker 1: we look at? And then totally ignore the guy like

1615
01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:03,519
Speaker 1: that the worst thing to do. There is a fine line. Well,

1616
01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:08,400
Speaker 1: if we bring in this guy that our quarterback recommended,

1617
01:27:09,240 --> 01:27:11,960
Speaker 1: is it gonna set a bad standard? Well, no, of

1618
01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:14,320
Speaker 1: course it's not. You think that do you don't think

1619
01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:18,400
Speaker 1: the quarterback has the best interest in the team when

1620
01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:20,040
Speaker 1: he goes to you and says, hey, we should take

1621
01:27:20,040 --> 01:27:23,880
Speaker 1: a look at this guy. And I did riff on

1622
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:26,519
Speaker 1: this on Straight Fire this week, so and it's about

1623
01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:30,960
Speaker 1: relationships and how they matter. And you know this is

1624
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:34,000
Speaker 1: gonna be shocking to some people. I did not work

1625
01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:36,360
Speaker 1: my way up the radio food chain. I did not

1626
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:39,439
Speaker 1: have a show in Montana, and then I did not

1627
01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:42,800
Speaker 1: upgrade to a show in New Mexico, and then I

1628
01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:45,000
Speaker 1: did not upgrade to a triple A market in Texas

1629
01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:48,280
Speaker 1: and then get to Fox Sports Radio. I didn't start

1630
01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:55,760
Speaker 1: doing local TV. UM. I was able to forge a

1631
01:27:55,840 --> 01:28:00,800
Speaker 1: relationship with Calherd through a very weird that of circumstances

1632
01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:02,719
Speaker 1: which we don't really need to rehash here. You guys,

1633
01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:05,840
Speaker 1: if your list, if you've listened, you know that he

1634
01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:08,840
Speaker 1: took down my website. We didn't know each other. A

1635
01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:10,840
Speaker 1: couple of years later, I went to ESPN to write

1636
01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:16,479
Speaker 1: a profile on Coward. We became friends and when f

1637
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:18,320
Speaker 1: S when he got to f S one, him and

1638
01:28:18,479 --> 01:28:20,439
Speaker 1: the then big boss were like, oh, well, who do

1639
01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:22,080
Speaker 1: you want to bring in? Coward? And he's like, let's

1640
01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:24,320
Speaker 1: go grab back in tire. This guy's a different thinker,

1641
01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:28,400
Speaker 1: he's unique, he can do radio, TV, web, Let's let's

1642
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:31,760
Speaker 1: bring him in. Now. That's how I got here, like

1643
01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:36,600
Speaker 1: a unique set of circumstances, and it mattered that a

1644
01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:39,840
Speaker 1: network that was starting to pop FS one went to

1645
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,680
Speaker 1: their number one guy, Cowherd and said who else is good?

1646
01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:48,519
Speaker 1: That's how TV some TV networks work. Now, I know

1647
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:52,519
Speaker 1: ESPN used to do some of that. You know, uh

1648
01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:55,439
Speaker 1: Skipper had an inner circle. I'm not breaking news here.

1649
01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:57,160
Speaker 1: I mean this is I think pretty well known of

1650
01:28:57,600 --> 01:29:00,240
Speaker 1: Scott Vampell. Who do you think it's good? You know,

1651
01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:03,600
Speaker 1: Stephen A. Smith? Who do you think is good? Would Narowski?

1652
01:29:04,640 --> 01:29:11,439
Speaker 1: Dan LeBatard? Um, you ask the best and brightest what

1653
01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:12,840
Speaker 1: who who do you think is good? Who do you

1654
01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:15,720
Speaker 1: want to bring in? And of course it makes sense

1655
01:29:15,760 --> 01:29:17,120
Speaker 1: that the Seahawks, and I know they have to know

1656
01:29:17,160 --> 01:29:19,720
Speaker 1: how to build a team, but let's be real, they've

1657
01:29:19,760 --> 01:29:21,840
Speaker 1: fallen on hard times recently. In the draft they have

1658
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:24,439
Speaker 1: not hit as well. Yes, Metcalfol was a home run,

1659
01:29:24,760 --> 01:29:27,360
Speaker 1: but they have whipped on a couple of others. And

1660
01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:29,559
Speaker 1: in free agency it's not like they're not gonna be dead.

1661
01:29:31,479 --> 01:29:34,400
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's covering up a lot of words in Seattle,

1662
01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:36,240
Speaker 1: and you could say Brady did the same in New England.

1663
01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:38,519
Speaker 1: I mean, no disrespect to Belichick, the greatest coach of

1664
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 1: all time. Go look at what they've done in the

1665
01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:44,960
Speaker 1: draft the last like five years. It ain't pretty. And

1666
01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:47,560
Speaker 1: I don't think it hurts to ask who do you

1667
01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:51,160
Speaker 1: want to bring in? You guys know this, Like eventually

1668
01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:54,320
Speaker 1: the bosses of Fox Sports Radio are gonna come to

1669
01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:57,680
Speaker 1: the producers and say, hey, any good producers out there

1670
01:29:57,720 --> 01:29:59,880
Speaker 1: we need we need new producers. And then whoever the

1671
01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:05,040
Speaker 1: forge relationships with Gavin and other producers here, those guys

1672
01:30:05,080 --> 01:30:07,200
Speaker 1: are gonna get bumped up to the front of the pile.

1673
01:30:07,360 --> 01:30:10,800
Speaker 1: That's how it works. Is that fair? I don't know.

1674
01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 1: But it also speaks to you instead of maybe being

1675
01:30:13,160 --> 01:30:16,240
Speaker 1: an angry jerk on social media and saying to everybody

1676
01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:19,880
Speaker 1: you're an idiot? Why oh you are uh an idiot?

1677
01:30:20,080 --> 01:30:22,080
Speaker 1: You know, and being a jerk on social media and

1678
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:24,240
Speaker 1: then coming, oh, how do I get a job there? No,

1679
01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:25,840
Speaker 1: maybe you should, like I don't know, try to be

1680
01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:28,679
Speaker 1: productive and learn and separate, separate yourself from the pack

1681
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:33,519
Speaker 1: and and be a good human being because relationships do matter.

1682
01:30:33,960 --> 01:30:36,639
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you right now, if someone's gonna come

1683
01:30:37,520 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 1: up to to one of the quarterbacks and say, hey, man,

1684
01:30:40,320 --> 01:30:42,880
Speaker 1: do you know Alan Robinson? Would you mind calling him?

1685
01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:47,720
Speaker 1: We want him? And like this happens all the time

1686
01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:50,160
Speaker 1: in the NBA, and it's not frowned upon. It's normal.

1687
01:30:50,280 --> 01:30:52,720
Speaker 1: It's the normal way of business. I'll never forget like

1688
01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:56,519
Speaker 1: the Lakers and I might not have this, but the

1689
01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,760
Speaker 1: Lakers had asked some of their guys to go out

1690
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:02,120
Speaker 1: and recruit and some other guys are like, I ain't

1691
01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:05,280
Speaker 1: doing that. If you remember Derrick Rose in Chicago, they

1692
01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:06,680
Speaker 1: were like, hey, we need you to recruit this guy.

1693
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:08,160
Speaker 1: We'd love to get him. And Derrick Ross is like,

1694
01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:13,559
Speaker 1: not happening. Go to the Warriors, Steph Curry, Draymond Green,

1695
01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:15,479
Speaker 1: do you guys want to what do you want to

1696
01:31:15,520 --> 01:31:17,560
Speaker 1: bring in Kdkay? Hell, yeah, we want to bring in

1697
01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:21,360
Speaker 1: k D. And they start recruiting him. Like in the NBA,

1698
01:31:22,240 --> 01:31:26,599
Speaker 1: it works. Lebron obviously has been running front offices for years.

1699
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,280
Speaker 1: Why is it? Why isn't the NFL thinking about that?

1700
01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:32,759
Speaker 1: I mean, Keavin on my office here, like it should

1701
01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:35,640
Speaker 1: be a layup that Russell Wilson had some input on

1702
01:31:35,720 --> 01:31:37,920
Speaker 1: what the hell they're Seahawks are doing? Should he not? Yeah?

1703
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:41,799
Speaker 1: I mean, look, as we're seeing the player empowerment movement

1704
01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:44,599
Speaker 1: coming from the NBA to the NFL, they should also

1705
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:47,519
Speaker 1: take a page out of the you know, personnel decisions

1706
01:31:47,640 --> 01:31:50,519
Speaker 1: that we see Lebron get right, Kyrie. I mean he

1707
01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:53,799
Speaker 1: look at the say they got on the coach the NFL.

1708
01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:57,040
Speaker 1: I don't think they'd ever go that far. But there

1709
01:31:57,240 --> 01:32:01,400
Speaker 1: is a level of allowing the most important person in

1710
01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:04,960
Speaker 1: your franchise to have a say in the at least

1711
01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:07,720
Speaker 1: the kinds of players he wants them to focus on.

1712
01:32:08,040 --> 01:32:11,160
Speaker 1: He's not gonna know that Tristan Worth's is the best

1713
01:32:11,200 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 1: tackle to come out, you know, but he might go

1714
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:17,400
Speaker 1: can we focus on the offensive line? Can we focus

1715
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:19,240
Speaker 1: on the weapons and that kind of thing. Yeah. I

1716
01:32:19,280 --> 01:32:23,320
Speaker 1: saw the stat that Tristan Worth's pick and the I

1717
01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:26,400
Speaker 1: think he was a fourth tackle maybe and he gave

1718
01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:31,800
Speaker 1: up was it one sack on one sack in snaps? Yes,

1719
01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:36,920
Speaker 1: something insane? Yeah, looking pretty good there, Yeah, yes, I mean, goodness,

1720
01:32:36,960 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 1: gracious now, I'm not saying that was a Tom Brady pole. Obviously,

1721
01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:42,720
Speaker 1: the scouting the department did a great job, and they

1722
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:46,840
Speaker 1: have been pretty phenomenal. Devin White, Lavonte David. They have

1723
01:32:47,040 --> 01:32:51,479
Speaker 1: really nailed it in Tampa, and it's pretty clear that

1724
01:32:51,560 --> 01:32:55,960
Speaker 1: it's a combination of our scouts and our stars UM

1725
01:32:57,439 --> 01:33:01,719
Speaker 1: and Tampa. Listen, I was way wrong. I had the Chiefs.

1726
01:33:02,400 --> 01:33:06,599
Speaker 1: I will go to my Grave saying the Packers were

1727
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:09,840
Speaker 1: missing their left tackle. Tampa took major advantage at five sacks,

1728
01:33:10,439 --> 01:33:14,360
Speaker 1: and I underestimated the loss of Eric Fisher, the left

1729
01:33:14,400 --> 01:33:17,120
Speaker 1: tackle for the Chiefs. I mean, it was a jailbreak

1730
01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:19,720
Speaker 1: every single time Patrick Mahomes dropped back to pass. And

1731
01:33:19,800 --> 01:33:22,880
Speaker 1: it's weird. I saw this negativity about Mahomes. I mean,

1732
01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:25,360
Speaker 1: I guess we could talk about that next if you

1733
01:33:25,400 --> 01:33:29,439
Speaker 1: guys want to. But this idea that Patrick Mahomes had

1734
01:33:29,439 --> 01:33:32,599
Speaker 1: a terrible Super Bowl and he sucked is laughable. Like, yeah,

1735
01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:36,120
Speaker 1: Aine watching the games, Um, Patrick Holomes never stood a

1736
01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:39,360
Speaker 1: chance in that Super Bowl. He was making throws. Did

1737
01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 1: you guys see the video where it's Mike Evans and

1738
01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:44,920
Speaker 1: Godwin are on the sideline watching Mahomes run for his

1739
01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:46,800
Speaker 1: life and they're like, oh my gosh, how is he

1740
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:49,960
Speaker 1: doing this? That's unbelievable. How is he even getting a

1741
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:54,760
Speaker 1: pass off? That's the level of pressure Patrick Mahomes was

1742
01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:57,240
Speaker 1: under I've never seen. I mean, he was the most

1743
01:33:57,320 --> 01:34:00,000
Speaker 1: pressured quarterback in Super Bowl history according to the numbers,

1744
01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:03,360
Speaker 1: Like there was never really a clean pocket where he

1745
01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:05,680
Speaker 1: could operate. Uh, Todd Bowles just put him in a

1746
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:09,360
Speaker 1: body back. Great job by Bowls and Tampa's defense in

1747
01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:10,840
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. But coming up next, we got a

1748

01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:49,000
Speaker 1: let's welcome in our guest covers the Seahawks for the

1760
01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:53,360
Speaker 1: Athletic Michael Shawn Dugard. Mike, how are you man? I'm good,

1761
01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:55,920
Speaker 1: I'm good. Are you doing I'm excellent? Uh this must

1762
01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,559
Speaker 1: have been a surprising week for you. Huh yeah, yeah,

1763
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:02,519
Speaker 1: there are him watching. Russell Wilson watched the Super Bowl

1764
01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:05,000
Speaker 1: thinking nothing of it. Next morning it's like, oh, the

1765
01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:08,280
Speaker 1: world's are fired. But that seems to be the vibe

1766
01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:11,519
Speaker 1: right now in in the NFL. Nobody's happy with their quarterback.

1767
01:35:11,640 --> 01:35:15,120
Speaker 1: We're talking about musical chairs with everybody. I don't know, Mike.

1768
01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:18,400
Speaker 1: My initial reaction is this is much ado about nothing.

1769
01:35:19,479 --> 01:35:22,640
Speaker 1: But maybe people keep pushing this for a reason. I

1770
01:35:22,680 --> 01:35:24,760
Speaker 1: don't know. Is there something behind the scenes you feel

1771
01:35:25,280 --> 01:35:27,439
Speaker 1: going on with Russell Wilson or is it simply he's

1772
01:35:27,479 --> 01:35:30,920
Speaker 1: just saw what Tom Brady did in Tampa, got whoever

1773
01:35:31,040 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 1: he needed to help him and won a Super Bowl.

1774
01:35:34,320 --> 01:35:37,639
Speaker 1: You know, I've only been covering the NFL for about

1775
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:41,200
Speaker 1: four years, four full seasons. But one thing I learned

1776
01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:43,320
Speaker 1: after like year one, as someone told me, I think

1777
01:35:43,320 --> 01:35:45,479
Speaker 1: it was at the Combine. They said, when stuff like

1778
01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:49,439
Speaker 1: this happens, either it's true or someone wants us to

1779
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:53,040
Speaker 1: think it's true. Either way, it's relevant. And I keep

1780
01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:57,160
Speaker 1: that in mind with all tweet rumor, reports, talking heads

1781
01:35:57,640 --> 01:36:00,880
Speaker 1: saying stuff like it's because the way you should pay

1782
01:36:00,880 --> 01:36:03,439
Speaker 1: attention to it. That's just kind of how I've been taught,

1783
01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, So I can't dismiss as much ado about

1784
01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:08,720
Speaker 1: nothing I used to. I would do that like three

1785
01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:12,679
Speaker 1: years ago when Russell's reports were like, oh yeah, Russell

1786
01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:15,400
Speaker 1: Wilson gonna quit football and played baseball for the Yankees,

1787
01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:17,640
Speaker 1: And it was just like, guys, what the hell? But

1788
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:20,360
Speaker 1: I remember, either it's true or someone wants us to

1789
01:36:20,400 --> 01:36:22,479
Speaker 1: think it's true. And then if it's the ladder, you

1790
01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:25,280
Speaker 1: have to wonder why someone wants you to think it's true. Right,

1791
01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:27,680
Speaker 1: So there's an agenda one way or the other. I

1792
01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:29,840
Speaker 1: don't know which one is the case with Russell's kind

1793
01:36:29,840 --> 01:36:33,320
Speaker 1: of media tour where he's acting like a disfronted worker. Um,

1794
01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:35,519
Speaker 1: but I cannot That's the first thing. I cannot do.

1795
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:37,800
Speaker 1: What I saw. I think lack of Forest tweet or

1796
01:36:38,600 --> 01:36:41,960
Speaker 1: um the damn Patrick interview or whatever. I just was

1797
01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:45,080
Speaker 1: immediately like, hey, either this is true or someone wants

1798
01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:48,280
Speaker 1: you to think it is. Either way, I detect my editor. Okay,

1799
01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:50,560
Speaker 1: So well, first of all, I mean, listen, you know

1800
01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:54,360
Speaker 1: if it's if it's from Schefter or Rappaport some of

1801
01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:58,320
Speaker 1: these other guys I'm not so sure about. But you've

1802
01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:01,200
Speaker 1: got me confused. Who would who would want us to

1803
01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:03,439
Speaker 1: think this is true about Russell Wilson? Like, what's the

1804
01:37:03,520 --> 01:37:07,280
Speaker 1: game there? I think it's Russell, Like I've spent the

1805
01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:09,960
Speaker 1: last like seventy two hours thinking about this. So I'm

1806
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:12,840
Speaker 1: like very equipped for everything. I have all these theories

1807
01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:15,439
Speaker 1: in my mind. I think it's Russell. I think this

1808
01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:19,720
Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson's way of being disgruntled because he's been like,

1809
01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:22,640
Speaker 1: look at his persona right, he say everything right, do

1810
01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:26,240
Speaker 1: everything right. He's superstar. You know, I'm in my pajamas

1811
01:37:26,280 --> 01:37:28,760
Speaker 1: with my wife and the coverage e Q. And so

1812
01:37:28,920 --> 01:37:31,120
Speaker 1: he still has an image to protect. And he knows

1813
01:37:31,240 --> 01:37:34,439
Speaker 1: that once you start demanding trades and showing a rift

1814
01:37:34,520 --> 01:37:36,479
Speaker 1: with the front office, you know, you get to James

1815
01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:39,880
Speaker 1: Harden treatment or you know name insert superstar that's had

1816
01:37:39,880 --> 01:37:42,200
Speaker 1: a problem with the front office that forced themselves out right.

1817
01:37:42,400 --> 01:37:44,040
Speaker 1: So he doesn't want that. He still wants to be

1818
01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:47,479
Speaker 1: god fearing family man um in the in the public eye.

1819
01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:49,080
Speaker 1: He also wants the public god. I know, he's tired

1820
01:37:49,120 --> 01:37:51,240
Speaker 1: to get hit. Yeah, and this is how he this

1821
01:37:51,400 --> 01:37:53,240
Speaker 1: is how he would do it. I thought about, man

1822
01:37:53,280 --> 01:37:55,080
Speaker 1: if Russell wass to try to force himself out, what

1823
01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:56,920
Speaker 1: would it look like. It wouldn't look like a tweet,

1824
01:37:57,240 --> 01:38:00,639
Speaker 1: It wouldn't look like a report from schefter. It would

1825
01:38:00,680 --> 01:38:03,080
Speaker 1: look like this. It would be a media tour where

1826
01:38:03,120 --> 01:38:06,200
Speaker 1: he tries to control the narrative where he got to

1827
01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:08,120
Speaker 1: get out in front of it, where he taught, where

1828
01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:10,280
Speaker 1: he spouted the same number. I think a many times

1829
01:38:10,320 --> 01:38:12,600
Speaker 1: you've heard the number three hundred and ninety four this

1830
01:38:12,760 --> 01:38:17,360
Speaker 1: week about Russell. Is that a coincidence? Probably not right.

1831
01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:19,920
Speaker 1: It's it's it's calculated. Is all my theory. This is

1832
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:23,439
Speaker 1: my conspiracy theory. Duo are spilling stuff out. But when

1833
01:38:23,479 --> 01:38:25,840
Speaker 1: you ask who's who wants us to know something? I

1834
01:38:25,960 --> 01:38:28,840
Speaker 1: think it's we're watching the messenger on Dan, Pagrick and

1835
01:38:28,920 --> 01:38:31,640
Speaker 1: Ellen and whatever. He's giving us the message. He's just

1836
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,839
Speaker 1: leaving breadcrumbs instead of just flat out saying it's interesting

1837
01:38:35,040 --> 01:38:37,599
Speaker 1: you put it that way. I mean, you know, Russ

1838
01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:39,640
Speaker 1: did not end the season on a high note. You

1839
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:41,240
Speaker 1: remember he was the m v P for the first

1840
01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:43,160
Speaker 1: half of the season and then he kind of fell

1841
01:38:43,240 --> 01:38:46,760
Speaker 1: apart a lot of turnovers, especially in that playoff game.

1842
01:38:46,760 --> 01:38:48,479
Speaker 1: He was not good against the Rams. They really had

1843
01:38:48,520 --> 01:38:51,760
Speaker 1: his number this year. I don't know though, Um, it's

1844
01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:53,680
Speaker 1: not like they're gonna move him, right. I would have

1845
01:38:53,760 --> 01:38:55,920
Speaker 1: to say there's what less than a one percent chance

1846
01:38:55,960 --> 01:38:59,720
Speaker 1: anything happens. If you had asked me that during the

1847
01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:02,760
Speaker 1: super Ball, I would agree. Um, and then I see

1848
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:05,400
Speaker 1: I see everything that's happened after and I just can't

1849
01:39:05,400 --> 01:39:08,519
Speaker 1: be I don't I don't realize any anymore. So I

1850
01:39:08,560 --> 01:39:10,400
Speaker 1: don't know. I can't put a percent on it because

1851
01:39:10,439 --> 01:39:13,439
Speaker 1: like I'm into like sports gambling even though I don't

1852
01:39:13,439 --> 01:39:14,840
Speaker 1: do it. So I don't want to give you, buddy,

1853
01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:18,799
Speaker 1: any odds on this thing. But um, it's this feels

1854
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:22,880
Speaker 1: like what a toxic relationship would look like behind the scenes.

1855
01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:26,200
Speaker 1: Like that's what I keep asking myself, like if I was, um,

1856
01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:29,080
Speaker 1: if I was to like describe a divorce, right, all

1857
01:39:29,160 --> 01:39:31,760
Speaker 1: the movies I've seen where the two characters fall out

1858
01:39:31,800 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 1: of love with each other, what does it look like?

1859
01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:36,040
Speaker 1: They're signs? First they don't just wake up one day

1860
01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:37,880
Speaker 1: and I hate you and get a lawyer. No, like

1861
01:39:38,520 --> 01:39:41,080
Speaker 1: you sleep the other way right like you? You you

1862
01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:43,320
Speaker 1: stop saying I love you, start down talking, then with

1863
01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:46,040
Speaker 1: around your friends when you're drunk, right like you do

1864
01:39:46,240 --> 01:39:49,479
Speaker 1: all these little things and then it blows up, you know,

1865
01:39:49,760 --> 01:39:52,840
Speaker 1: and and everyone's face like there's little things that come there.

1866
01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:55,600
Speaker 1: And I think for Russell, who have you know publicly

1867
01:39:55,680 --> 01:39:58,120
Speaker 1: done this? He's a smart guy, right that means things

1868
01:39:58,160 --> 01:40:00,519
Speaker 1: are probably even worse behind the scene. I'm not fully

1869
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:04,120
Speaker 1: sure how bad necessarily, but it's it's to the point

1870
01:40:04,200 --> 01:40:07,480
Speaker 1: that in my mind I wouldn't rule out any scenario

1871
01:40:07,680 --> 01:40:09,840
Speaker 1: at this point when you got the superstar quarterback being

1872
01:40:09,880 --> 01:40:12,479
Speaker 1: out there, like, yeah, no. My online kind of thinks

1873
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:15,360
Speaker 1: we ran the ball too much last year. That's why

1874
01:40:15,439 --> 01:40:18,040
Speaker 1: I started to think I'm kind of asphalt too. But

1875
01:40:18,560 --> 01:40:20,479
Speaker 1: you know, really I just want to protect my legacy,

1876
01:40:20,640 --> 01:40:24,639
Speaker 1: so have fun with that. Guys are going on Ellen, Well,

1877
01:40:24,680 --> 01:40:27,479
Speaker 1: I just looked at his contract and it looks like

1878
01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:31,599
Speaker 1: there's an out after next season. I think that will

1879
01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:34,400
Speaker 1: He'll be thirty three turning thirty four, still have a

1880
01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:37,439
Speaker 1: ton of value given uh, you know, he's pretty much

1881
01:40:37,439 --> 01:40:40,400
Speaker 1: an iron man. Um, I don't know it, just I

1882
01:40:40,760 --> 01:40:43,120
Speaker 1: just I don't see how you move on. We We've

1883
01:40:43,160 --> 01:40:47,320
Speaker 1: seen teams lose their franchise quarterback and like they don't

1884
01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:50,240
Speaker 1: get another one for years, maybe decades. Look at the

1885
01:40:50,240 --> 01:40:53,439
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins since they lost Marino, They've had like forty

1886
01:40:53,560 --> 01:41:01,439
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and I don't know anyways arrogant associated to it too, though,

1887
01:41:01,520 --> 01:41:05,160
Speaker 1: like teams think, Um, there's there's a jay Z line

1888
01:41:05,160 --> 01:41:06,920
Speaker 1: where He's like, I think it's a reference to Dame

1889
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:09,080
Speaker 1: Dash saying he made Roxxella and all that. He says,

1890
01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:11,479
Speaker 1: you know, people saying they made Hove. Okay, so make

1891
01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:14,320
Speaker 1: another hole, right, it's the same. It's it's the arrogance.

1892
01:41:14,800 --> 01:41:17,320
Speaker 1: It's the arrogance of gms and coaches, right, Like I

1893
01:41:17,439 --> 01:41:21,000
Speaker 1: can if I drafted insert QB and we molded him

1894
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:23,640
Speaker 1: into something great, like we could just do that, you

1895
01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:26,519
Speaker 1: know again, right. I think that that's not exclusive to

1896
01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:28,360
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. I'm sure any team that drafted a guy

1897
01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:30,519
Speaker 1: out of the first round and became their starter thinks that.

1898
01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:33,800
Speaker 1: The Seahawks par think that to some extent. Dallas Park

1899
01:41:33,880 --> 01:41:36,160
Speaker 1: thinks that to some extent with Dak you know, the

1900
01:41:36,320 --> 01:41:38,559
Speaker 1: the Jags. Gardner minshew. I can't think of any others

1901
01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:40,400
Speaker 1: at the top of my head. But there is that

1902
01:41:40,640 --> 01:41:43,120
Speaker 1: arrogance there, you know, like I built you, right, like

1903
01:41:43,320 --> 01:41:45,760
Speaker 1: we we molded you, so we can do it again.

1904
01:41:45,840 --> 01:41:48,600
Speaker 1: And the Seahawks went to Josh Allen's pro dayeen right

1905
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:51,280
Speaker 1: right after Russell Wilson led the league in touchdown passes.

1906
01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:55,200
Speaker 1: There's there's there's some Americans there, you know, whether that's

1907
01:41:55,280 --> 01:41:57,599
Speaker 1: right or wrong. I don't know, but it's definitely there.

1908
01:41:57,640 --> 01:41:59,280
Speaker 1: And again, either it's true or someone wants us to

1909
01:41:59,320 --> 01:42:01,760
Speaker 1: think it's true, because the reason that that got leaked

1910
01:42:01,800 --> 01:42:04,760
Speaker 1: out and Russell's camp's reaction got leaked out for them

1911
01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:07,080
Speaker 1: being a Josh Allen's pro day and then oh, we

1912
01:42:07,160 --> 01:42:08,960
Speaker 1: find out like a year later, Oh, the Seahawks talked

1913
01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:12,120
Speaker 1: to the Browns about a possible trade of Russ uh

1914
01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:15,080
Speaker 1: that same draft. Like this, it's all bread crumbs like

1915
01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:17,920
Speaker 1: I've been I've been investigating this like the past three days,

1916
01:42:17,960 --> 01:42:20,040
Speaker 1: and like, wait a minute, this is not there's smoke here.

1917
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:24,200
Speaker 1: I think there's fire. Huh. Interesting. I hadn't drawn that conclusion.

1918
01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:26,280
Speaker 1: I was just gonna brush off the Josh Allen as

1919
01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:28,519
Speaker 1: hey as the front office, you've got to do your

1920
01:42:28,560 --> 01:42:33,200
Speaker 1: diligence and always look for options who's out there? And

1921
01:42:34,400 --> 01:42:36,840
Speaker 1: you do? You do, you absolutely do? But how is

1922
01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:38,600
Speaker 1: how did that look? Because they had I think the

1923
01:42:38,680 --> 01:42:41,720
Speaker 1: nineteenth stick or something maybe, So how does that look? Though?

1924
01:42:41,720 --> 01:42:43,920
Speaker 1: When you're Russell? I put yourself in Russell's shoes again,

1925
01:42:43,960 --> 01:42:45,960
Speaker 1: put yourself in a messenger's shoes. I just led the

1926
01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:49,040
Speaker 1: league and techdown passes we couldn't run the ball to

1927
01:42:49,120 --> 01:42:50,960
Speaker 1: the point that I accounted for thirty six of our

1928
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:53,800
Speaker 1: thirty nine offensive touchdowns. We didn't make the playoffs for

1929
01:42:53,840 --> 01:42:56,360
Speaker 1: the first time in my career. And then you're going

1930
01:42:56,439 --> 01:42:58,840
Speaker 1: to a quarterback's pro day, like right or wrong? I

1931
01:42:58,880 --> 01:43:00,439
Speaker 1: think you do have do you do deal agents, but

1932
01:43:00,640 --> 01:43:03,160
Speaker 1: put yourself from the other person choose And now you're like, okay, guys,

1933
01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:07,760
Speaker 1: what the hell, how's this? If Russell was upset, how

1934
01:43:08,040 --> 01:43:11,599
Speaker 1: piste should Aaron Rodgers have been when they went thirteen

1935
01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:15,639
Speaker 1: and three NFC title game and they did draft a quarterback,

1936
01:43:15,720 --> 01:43:17,240
Speaker 1: not just go to the pro day. They took one

1937
01:43:17,280 --> 01:43:21,080
Speaker 1: in the first round with with with the context of

1938
01:43:21,160 --> 01:43:24,360
Speaker 1: how having covered the Russell saga with them going to

1939
01:43:24,439 --> 01:43:26,719
Speaker 1: the pro day, when I saw that with Josh Allen

1940
01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:29,479
Speaker 1: or excuse me, with Jordan Love this year with Green Bay,

1941
01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:31,479
Speaker 1: I legit thought Aaron Rodgers would just demanda trade and

1942
01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:33,800
Speaker 1: not play because I I thought it would be like

1943
01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:36,720
Speaker 1: your saying even worse, like you guys actually took a

1944
01:43:36,840 --> 01:43:40,880
Speaker 1: first round quarterback while I'm still really good and really

1945
01:43:40,960 --> 01:43:43,960
Speaker 1: expensive and still the face of the franchise, Like, kudos

1946
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:46,720
Speaker 1: to Aaron Rodgers for not going to the tank like

1947
01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:49,800
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz did when they drafted his replacement. That's a

1948
01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:53,000
Speaker 1: lot of, like, you know, mental toughness on Aaron's part

1949
01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:56,280
Speaker 1: to have an m VP season right after they basically

1950
01:43:56,400 --> 01:43:59,880
Speaker 1: drafted your replacement. Like, I'm sure he'll never forget. Like Aaron,

1951
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:01,920
Speaker 1: you don't forget when people call him six ft tall

1952
01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:04,680
Speaker 1: or whatever. Like he's got that little man complex. So

1953
01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:07,600
Speaker 1: I can only imagine how long he's gonna hold her on,

1954
01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:09,560
Speaker 1: you know, to that he's probably gonna say to the

1962
01:44:33,840 --> 01:44:37,240
Speaker 1: more smoke than that I thought heading into the Russell

Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. There is a sign here in the

1982
01:45:43,360 --> 01:45:46,040
Speaker 1: Fox Sports radio studios that I am about to update

1983
01:45:46,120 --> 01:45:53,800
Speaker 1: to zero days since we last mentioned Tim Tebow. Yes,

1984
01:45:53,880 --> 01:45:56,559
Speaker 1: the now thirty three year old former Heisman Trophy winner

1985
01:45:56,600 --> 01:45:59,240
Speaker 1: has been invited to Major League spring training by the

1986
01:45:59,439 --> 01:46:04,760
Speaker 1: New York Mets. Tebow where's that coming from? Tebow last

1987
01:46:04,800 --> 01:46:08,960
Speaker 1: played on the Miners in with Syracuse fatting one with

1988
01:46:09,080 --> 01:46:12,240
Speaker 1: four home runs and nineteen RB are you playing that?

1989
01:46:12,360 --> 01:46:14,439
Speaker 1: And there, Jason that I'm not doing that. That is

1990
01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:19,360
Speaker 1: not Let me try this again, Tebow. Wow, that's quite

1991
01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:23,679
Speaker 1: a phenomenon, Jason. Back to you, Okay, boy, Isaac firing

1992
01:46:23,760 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 1: on all cylinders. Back here on Fox Sports Radio, it's

1993
01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:32,559
Speaker 1: me Jason mcattack live from a Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports

1994
01:46:32,640 --> 01:46:36,200
Speaker 1: Radio studio. It's called one eight Farmers so you could

1995
01:46:36,200 --> 01:46:41,559
Speaker 1: say a whole lot of something on auto insurance. Um, boy, Iowa, Sam.

1996
01:46:41,720 --> 01:46:44,640
Speaker 1: This Drake team looks pretty impressive. I'm digging into some

1997
01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:47,400
Speaker 1: college hoops here in the studio. Every time I look up.

1998
01:46:47,560 --> 01:46:49,600
Speaker 1: Not only are their jerseys cool, but they've got a

1999
01:46:49,720 --> 01:46:52,679
Speaker 1: good group of kids on this talented team. I see

2000
01:46:52,720 --> 01:46:55,920
Speaker 1: in Ken Palm they're up. They're only fifty seven, so

2001
01:46:56,080 --> 01:47:00,760
Speaker 1: maybe um the nineteen and one markets kind of plated. Yeah, Drake, Sorry,

2002
01:47:00,760 --> 01:47:03,920
Speaker 1: I was attending something back here. Drake. Love their jerseys. Yeah,

2003
01:47:03,920 --> 01:47:06,679
Speaker 1: they started out I think eighteen and no or they're

2004
01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:08,960
Speaker 1: eighteen and no. Lost their first game to Valpare is

2005
01:47:09,000 --> 01:47:11,080
Speaker 1: a not very good team, but um. Their strength of

2006
01:47:11,080 --> 01:47:12,920
Speaker 1: schedules in the three hundreds. That's the problem. So if

2007
01:47:12,920 --> 01:47:15,599
Speaker 1: they beat Loyal Chicago, who's ranked right now, it will

2008
01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:18,000
Speaker 1: help greatly. But Drake looks like the runaway favorite in

2009
01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:22,160
Speaker 1: the Missouri Valley Conference and v see baby. UM. So

2010
01:47:22,360 --> 01:47:24,479
Speaker 1: I did put a couple of college basketball picks from

2011
01:47:24,520 --> 01:47:27,280
Speaker 1: the machine on my Instagram stories. You can check those out.

2012
01:47:27,840 --> 01:47:31,320
Speaker 1: UM I've got you know, the machines had a pretty

2013
01:47:31,320 --> 01:47:33,200
Speaker 1: incredible week. I have been posting all the picks. The

2014
01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:35,599
Speaker 1: one day I did post, they went four and oh um,

2015
01:47:36,240 --> 01:47:39,920
Speaker 1: I obviously took all four. Today's UM and it's obscure stuff.

2016
01:47:39,960 --> 01:47:42,160
Speaker 1: It's it's not the big marquee games. It's where you

2017
01:47:42,200 --> 01:47:44,000
Speaker 1: can find an edge. We talked about this in gambling

2018
01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:48,320
Speaker 1: all the time. You know, super Bowl, efficient market, super

2019
01:47:48,400 --> 01:47:51,040
Speaker 1: tight lines. But on the prop bets, you're able to

2020
01:47:51,160 --> 01:47:53,280
Speaker 1: find an edge. And I actually had a pretty good

2021
01:47:53,280 --> 01:47:56,439
Speaker 1: super Bowl with the prop bets. I I posted on

2022
01:47:56,600 --> 01:48:00,080
Speaker 1: Fox Sports. UM, and you know that same true for

2023
01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:03,200
Speaker 1: college basketball. Like you just it's gonna Duke firs U

2024
01:48:03,360 --> 01:48:05,720
Speaker 1: n C. You're not You're not gonna be able to

2025
01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:09,600
Speaker 1: find something there. But in an Abilene Christian game, you

2026
01:48:09,680 --> 01:48:12,080
Speaker 1: know the market is a little less efficient. Gavin, have

2027
01:48:12,160 --> 01:48:13,960
Speaker 1: you been doing a lot of college troops gambling? None.

2028
01:48:14,040 --> 01:48:17,640
Speaker 1: I'm actually making a statement this year to only bet

2029
01:48:17,840 --> 01:48:21,559
Speaker 1: NFL in college football because I actually talk about edge.

2030
01:48:21,760 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 1: I just it's impossible. And look, the only area where

2031
01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:29,439
Speaker 1: I would think about it is the totals. But I've

2032
01:48:29,479 --> 01:48:31,280
Speaker 1: been through it for a couple of years now. I

2033
01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:33,200
Speaker 1: do the best I can. But the only place I

2034
01:48:33,360 --> 01:48:35,840
Speaker 1: really feel like I have an edge and and the

2035
01:48:35,960 --> 01:48:39,519
Speaker 1: stats and everything really works out is football. It's so hard.

2036
01:48:39,800 --> 01:48:44,320
Speaker 1: Baseball basketball, it's you know, we'll see around the postseason

2037
01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:46,519
Speaker 1: for the you know, around June or something. Maybe what

2038
01:48:46,600 --> 01:48:49,759
Speaker 1: about Mark Madness, Well, that's just betting on a team.

2039
01:48:50,000 --> 01:48:51,800
Speaker 1: You know that those are fun, Like I'll just bet

2040
01:48:51,960 --> 01:48:54,479
Speaker 1: money line, you know, underdogs and stuff. But but no,

2041
01:48:54,680 --> 01:48:56,920
Speaker 1: it's it's really hard to actually when you get into

2042
01:48:56,960 --> 01:49:00,280
Speaker 1: the spreads and everything. Um, A little update here from

2043
01:49:00,360 --> 01:49:03,720
Speaker 1: rap Sheet on your guy Trevor Lawrence. He will have

2044
01:49:04,200 --> 01:49:08,639
Speaker 1: laboram surgery on his left shoulder on Tuesday. It's gonna

2045
01:49:08,640 --> 01:49:12,640
Speaker 1: be a five to six month recovery. He will or

2046
01:49:12,720 --> 01:49:16,800
Speaker 1: he's expected to be fined by training camp non throwing

2047
01:49:16,840 --> 01:49:21,479
Speaker 1: shoulder right non throwing shoulder, LABORAM surgery. I mean, you

2048
01:49:21,600 --> 01:49:23,919
Speaker 1: never want to hear labor M and shoulder and surgery,

2049
01:49:24,080 --> 01:49:29,000
Speaker 1: but I don't non throwing shoulder can't be that huge. Now,

2050
01:49:29,120 --> 01:49:31,320
Speaker 1: you do wonder he takes a big hit gets lands

2051
01:49:31,360 --> 01:49:34,000
Speaker 1: on that shoulder. Look too, I had a lot of

2052
01:49:34,080 --> 01:49:36,400
Speaker 1: injury concerns coming out and he didn't look great this year.

2053
01:49:36,560 --> 01:49:40,479
Speaker 1: So different injury obviously, and Trevor Lawrence is like six five.

2054
01:49:41,640 --> 01:49:44,080
Speaker 1: I still think guys, that run that he had against

2055
01:49:44,120 --> 01:49:46,760
Speaker 1: Ohio State in the playoff, not this past year, but

2056
01:49:46,840 --> 01:49:49,479
Speaker 1: the year before is like up there with the Tommy

2057
01:49:49,520 --> 01:49:53,960
Speaker 1: Fraser run against Florida, the Mike Vick Falcons run against

2058
01:49:54,000 --> 01:49:58,360
Speaker 1: the Vikings, the Steve Young run, uh in the playoffs.

2059
01:49:58,520 --> 01:50:01,960
Speaker 1: I think that was against the Vikings. It's just one

2060
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:04,240
Speaker 1: of the all time great runs Trevor. I'm just such

2061
01:50:04,280 --> 01:50:07,519
Speaker 1: a fanboy of Trevor Lawrence. Uh. That's why I'm so

2062
01:50:07,720 --> 01:50:11,639
Speaker 1: excited for his oh and to start in the narratives

2063
01:50:11,680 --> 01:50:13,920
Speaker 1: that come out, because basically, I feel bad for the guy.

2064
01:50:14,240 --> 01:50:18,800
Speaker 1: He cannot exceed anyone's expectations because he's basically superman. He's

2065
01:50:18,800 --> 01:50:21,120
Speaker 1: got to win. He's got to win a super Bowl

2066
01:50:21,520 --> 01:50:25,120
Speaker 1: in his rookie year. There's nothing, no, no, no, no.

2067
01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:28,080
Speaker 1: What I mean is to exceed to to not face

2068
01:50:28,160 --> 01:50:33,120
Speaker 1: backlash in his rookie season. He has to, I mean,

2069
01:50:33,280 --> 01:50:36,360
Speaker 1: surpass what Herbert did by a wide margin. Right, he

2070
01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:39,800
Speaker 1: can't because okay, it's unfair that the media has done

2071
01:50:39,800 --> 01:50:41,599
Speaker 1: this too. Hum. So it's funny Herbert had a good

2072
01:50:41,680 --> 01:50:45,320
Speaker 1: season and we still had Tony cornheis are going on

2073
01:50:45,439 --> 01:50:48,439
Speaker 1: TV and saying, well, how how good has Herbert? He's

2074
01:50:48,439 --> 01:50:51,640
Speaker 1: only won four games or whatever. It was, like, what

2075
01:50:51,920 --> 01:50:55,360
Speaker 1: does Trevor Lawrence need to do? Win seven games or

2076
01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:59,720
Speaker 1: have Justin Herbert type numbers? Well, the winning games we've

2077
01:50:59,760 --> 01:51:02,759
Speaker 1: taught better on this show. That's that's an archaic stat

2078
01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:06,600
Speaker 1: It's not It doesn't really evaluate how great a quarterback was.

2079
01:51:06,680 --> 01:51:08,519
Speaker 1: It's out of his control. I think you're going to

2080
01:51:08,600 --> 01:51:14,400
Speaker 1: look at the touchdown to interception ratio, completion percentage, which

2081
01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:16,840
Speaker 1: by the way, is partly due to the DJ Chark

2082
01:51:16,880 --> 01:51:18,960
Speaker 1: and those guys like they need to do their part

2083
01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:22,000
Speaker 1: um and how he looks under pressure. I don't think

2084
01:51:22,080 --> 01:51:25,240
Speaker 1: the Jaguars have a top o line, right, Yeah, it

2085
01:51:25,360 --> 01:51:29,160
Speaker 1: was okay, okay, Justin Herbert had a stat that you

2086
01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:31,920
Speaker 1: don't want your quarterback to have, but it was terrific.

2087
01:51:32,240 --> 01:51:35,120
Speaker 1: He was basically the best quarterback against pressure last year.

2088
01:51:35,960 --> 01:51:39,000
Speaker 1: You know he's excellent. What is Trevor Lawrence gonna look

2089
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:41,320
Speaker 1: like when he doesn't have an elite offensive line and

2090
01:51:41,560 --> 01:51:43,680
Speaker 1: elite running back in the backfield? I wonder if we

2091
01:51:43,720 --> 01:51:47,759
Speaker 1: could create this prop bet, will Trevor Lawrence have more

2092
01:51:48,120 --> 01:51:51,200
Speaker 1: losses in his first month as an NFL quarterback than

2093
01:51:51,240 --> 01:51:53,920
Speaker 1: he had at Clemson. We have to look at the schedule,

2094
01:51:54,040 --> 01:51:57,240
Speaker 1: as I think he had to at Clemson right first year,

2095
01:51:57,320 --> 01:52:03,840
Speaker 1: they didn't lose and then he lost to Alabama L

2096
01:52:04,160 --> 01:52:05,800
Speaker 1: L s U in Alabama No, No L s U

2097
01:52:05,840 --> 01:52:10,640
Speaker 1: and Ohio State. He at least he beat Alabama, right,

2098
01:52:12,600 --> 01:52:14,680
Speaker 1: So that would mean will he have three losses in

2099
01:52:14,760 --> 01:52:16,960
Speaker 1: his first month? And you know that will be the story,

2100
01:52:17,120 --> 01:52:19,719

2128
01:54:04,080 --> 01:54:07,000
Speaker 1: I call him a legend? He was one of the

2129
01:54:07,120 --> 01:54:10,960
Speaker 1: most legendary linebackers in Charger history during the time he

2130
01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:13,439
Speaker 1: was there. I mean it was a short run, had

2131
01:54:13,520 --> 01:54:18,040
Speaker 1: some issues with injuries, little p d you know, accusation there.

2132
01:54:18,439 --> 01:54:20,960
Speaker 1: But man, if he didn't remind you of Junior say

2133
01:54:20,960 --> 01:54:24,599
Speaker 1: oh back in oh six oh seven, yeah they had.

2134
01:54:24,640 --> 01:54:28,519
Speaker 1: They had some awesome teams Rivers LT, Junior say out

2135
01:54:28,720 --> 01:54:34,240
Speaker 1: like eleven Pro Bowlers in No. Six. Yeah, it's wild

2136
01:54:34,520 --> 01:54:37,680
Speaker 1: to look at the that Pro Bowl roster was that

2137
01:54:37,760 --> 01:54:40,960
Speaker 1: when they lost in the ANC title game. That was

2138
01:54:41,040 --> 01:54:46,040
Speaker 1: the divisional round to the Patriots. The only playoff game,

2139
01:54:46,280 --> 01:54:49,000
Speaker 1: or the only sporting event that has ever made me cry.

2140
01:54:49,600 --> 01:54:52,280
Speaker 1: I cry. I'm not kidding it, really I was. So

2141
01:54:52,920 --> 01:54:58,560
Speaker 1: That's why I have never convinced myself we're gonna win. Yeah,

2142
01:54:58,880 --> 01:55:01,600
Speaker 1: and then to get a Division A round home playoff game,

2143
01:55:01,640 --> 01:55:04,960
Speaker 1: Marlon mccreef fumbles the ball, Brady wins. Unreal. You had

2144
01:55:05,040 --> 01:55:08,000
Speaker 1: them beat with about five minutes left hold onto the ball.

2145
01:55:09,160 --> 01:55:13,200
Speaker 1: Tom Brady throws a pick, Marlon McCree intercepts it, starts

2146
01:55:13,280 --> 01:55:17,040
Speaker 1: running it back. Troy Brown strips the ball. I mean,

2147
01:55:17,160 --> 01:55:19,960
Speaker 1: that's why I don't care where an interception happens. If

2148
01:55:19,960 --> 01:55:22,640
Speaker 1: it's my team, just fall down, fall down. I don't

2149
01:55:22,720 --> 01:55:25,560
Speaker 1: need the big runback. M I Still. You know a

2150
01:55:25,640 --> 01:55:28,120
Speaker 1: game I remember because I actually want to bet on it.

2151
01:55:28,600 --> 01:55:31,160
Speaker 1: It was against Peyton Manning and the Colts in overtime.

2152
01:55:32,120 --> 01:55:36,760
Speaker 1: Um that was Chargers won the toss and I think

2153
01:55:36,760 --> 01:55:39,240
Speaker 1: it was a pitch to lt and he cut to

2154
01:55:39,280 --> 01:55:42,360
Speaker 1: the left a couple of times. Yes, And if you

2155
01:55:42,480 --> 01:55:46,240
Speaker 1: ask Rivers or even Merriman, they will say that was

2156
01:55:46,360 --> 01:55:51,080
Speaker 1: there one of like their favorite moments that I was

2157
01:55:51,160 --> 01:55:53,440
Speaker 1: surprised a boy that actually I forgot who the announcer

2158
01:55:53,560 --> 01:55:55,440
Speaker 1: was on that, but it was an epic call if

2159
01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:57,600
Speaker 1: you listen to it on YouTube. And then the announcer

2160
01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:00,320
Speaker 1: goes silent and the stadium is just bad. And that's

2161
01:56:00,400 --> 01:56:03,000
Speaker 1: the thing everyone always said, San Diego, you don't have

2162
01:56:03,040 --> 01:56:06,640
Speaker 1: any fans go back to those times the Qualcom Stadium

2163
01:56:06,680 --> 01:56:10,080
Speaker 1: would be rocking. So I remember that I had bet

2164
01:56:10,200 --> 01:56:12,920
Speaker 1: on the Chargers in that game, and sprawls, takes it

2165
01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:15,720
Speaker 1: outside and he makes like two cuts and there's this

2166
01:56:15,800 --> 01:56:17,240
Speaker 1: avenue and you're like, oh my, is he gonna go

2167
01:56:17,680 --> 01:56:20,320
Speaker 1: and the announcer starts going crazy and then it's a touchdown.

2168
01:56:20,360 --> 01:56:23,800
Speaker 1: It was just like yes. And by the way, low

2169
01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:27,000
Speaker 1: key one of the greatest field position games you'll ever see.

2170
01:56:27,440 --> 01:56:31,160
Speaker 1: Mike Ciphers, their punter kept pinning the Colts back inside

2171
01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:33,480
Speaker 1: the five and the tent. It is unreal, Like Pat

2172
01:56:33,600 --> 01:56:36,280
Speaker 1: McAfee just glows about it to this day. What a

2173
01:56:36,360 --> 01:56:40,720
Speaker 1: game that was. Remembering field position, I remember that at

2174
01:56:40,760 --> 01:56:42,960
Speaker 1: the time I was going, we actually had a weapon

2175
01:56:43,120 --> 01:56:45,800
Speaker 1: as a punter. Now the Chargers are known for their

2176
01:56:45,920 --> 01:56:49,840
Speaker 1: terrible special teams, new kickers every year, don't remind me,

2177
01:56:50,360 --> 01:56:52,200
Speaker 1: Oh those are the days. Of course. Then the Jets

2178
01:56:52,320 --> 01:56:59,640
Speaker 1: coming in. Isaac Loncron actually has that touchdown call. There

2179
01:56:59,720 --> 01:57:05,520
Speaker 1: are al Michael's and a Michael the culture not a

2180
01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:09,879
Speaker 1: Brooks are Water but always still have the stays sprays.

2181
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:12,600
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to ten, didn't started to five and the

2182
01:57:12,800 --> 01:57:19,760
Speaker 1: Charges lay the day. Great, great job, Isaac. I just

2183
01:57:19,840 --> 01:57:22,920
Speaker 1: got goose bumps inside the tenantside and you could hear

2184
01:57:23,000 --> 01:57:26,080
Speaker 1: the rise and it's just it was an awesome, awesome moment.

2185
01:57:26,360 --> 01:57:28,800
Speaker 1: You know, I love gambling wins like that. Uh, let's

2186
01:57:28,800 --> 01:57:31,920
Speaker 1: not talk about the losses. Um Chargers could always beat

2187
01:57:31,920 --> 01:57:34,920
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning in the Colts. They never beat Brady in

2188
01:57:34,960 --> 01:57:37,120
Speaker 1: the Patriots. No, not many people to bet Brady. All right,

2189
01:57:37,160 --> 01:57:41,440
Speaker 1: thank you Isaac for that. Fine, Thank you Gavin. Great guests, Iowa, Sam, Chris.

2192
01:57:48,320 --> 01:57:51,080
Speaker 1: not sleep well last night, woke up sweating. I was like,

2193
01:57:51,160 --> 01:57:52,840
Speaker 1: do I have a fever? Do I have COVID? I

2194
01:57:52,920 --> 01:57:54,400
Speaker 1: haven't had one of those moments in a while. I
