27
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,600

00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: live We live in Los Angeles, the home of voice

29
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,920

30
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: I've told her, like a hundred times, as many others have,

31
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: why don't you make serious, serious sidecash doing this that

32
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: God given talent. As to her response about coming to

Speaker 1: our show, no, no response, no, no one change the

34
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: subject again. There's something going on. It's at this point. Um,

35
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: welcome to the Wednesday, the Thursday edition of the Around

36
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: the NFL podcast. Um and Um, if you were in

Speaker 1: all black. Erica facilitated a photoshoopers are scheduled one today

39
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: told us all to wear black. Greg and I complied,

40

Speaker 1: we I apologize. I assume you do is as well.

43
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: It completely slipped my mind. It's I am no excuse.

44
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: What's your level of disappointment? One to ten Erica? I mean,

45
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was worse when Dan you

46
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: texted me said, oh sweet, sweet Erica. You should have

47
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: reminded them. That made me feel well. I sent her

48
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: that text about like half an hour before the show.

49
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: You could have sent it at that moment, maybe caught

50
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: them half hour. They probably hereably typing up articles and

51
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: just calling the game, you know, But now we're your favorites,

52
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: Dan and I. So that's yeah, it put guys off. So, UM,

53
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: today's show a lot to get to. Um. Super Bowl

54
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: fifty three is a week and a half away, Rams

55
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: and Patriots. So we're gonna take a look at some

56
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: unsolved mysteries around super Bowl fifty three. But before we

57
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: get to that, a lot going on in the league.

58
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: So let's take a spin through the news. You're listening

59
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: to a Hot Bot and the Clothes Horse mornings on

60
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: K and FL. Let's start with the fallout, the continuing

61
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: fallout around the Saints Rams NFC title game and the

62
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: blown call heard around the world. Nickel Robie Coleman didn't

63
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: get whistled for a what looked like an apparent defensive

64
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: past interference gave the Rams new life. They went on

65
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: to tie the game and then win in overtime. You've

66
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: seen stories about Saints fans filing lawsuits, putting up billboards

67
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. UH. The Saints owner Gayle Benson released a

68
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: statement expressing a disappointment with how things were handled by

69
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: Bill Vanovich's crew. And now we're hearing that there could

70
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: be potential changes greg in the rules coming off this,

71
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 1: or at least it's going to renew or strengthen or embolden, UH,

72
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: perhaps a change in the rules after what we saw.

73
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: There's so many different ways that they could go, and

74
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 1: it is something that's discussed often, really annually at the

75
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: league meetings. In terms of expanding the rules, Bill Belichick

76
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: for a long time has proposed making every replay reviewable,

77
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: which is seen as some sort of like far left

78
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: or like extreme view that for whatever reason, the Competition

79
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: Committee can't get behind and that it sounds like they're

80
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: not gonna get behind it now. Stephen Jones and John

81
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: Elway who are on the Competition committee keep talking about

82
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: a slippery slope, and you know, Enrich McVeigh, where does

83
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: it end. It's like, you're right in the rules, you

84
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 1: can decide where it ends. I don't get the slippery slope.

85
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: I also don't think it's crazy to make every single

86
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: play reviewable. As long as you don't increase the challenge challenges,

87
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: then you have the same number of challenges, just more

88
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: strategy in terms of what you're going to challenge. There

89
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: will be more challenges. I know you say there won't,

90
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: but there will be because there are games where coaches

91
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: don't use any challenges. Okay. I can live with that, though,

92
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: Like what's more important getting it right? Entertainment's important? Okay then,

93
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: And we know that's an issue because our ribon has

94
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: mentioned it at our talent summits that the NFL knows

95
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: it has a problem with too many flags, too many

96
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: reps getting in the way of the game, and the

97
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: flow in the rhythm of the game is very important,

98
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: and I think we're going the wrong way on that.

99
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: I I do think though, it's just priorities, because they

100
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 1: would never think for a second to pass up a

101
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: dollar of ad money. And it's like you could you

102
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: could skip some commercial breaks. I mean, anyone who's been

103
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: to a game live knows half the game players are

104
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,559
Speaker 1: just standing around. You could make halftime of the super

105
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: Bowl half is long, but you're not going to because

106
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: you're getting paid for it. So if if we're willing

107
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: to make the game a little five minutes longer for that,

108
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: I'm fine with it being four minutes longer for to

109
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: get the play some of the fixes that make sense

110
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: to me. Or if this were to be applied, maybe

111
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: not throughout the entire game, but fourth quarter into overtime

112
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: or final two minutes and then into overtime where you

113
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: avoid because if this, if this had happened in the

114
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 1: first quarter, the way football works, no one would care

115
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: you get over there to deal with it. Lots of

116
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: crazy calls did happen this right next weekend makes sense

117
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: from a human and fan angle why everyone is freaking

118
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: out about this call, as they should. The one thing

119
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: I'd say about football in the NFL and the way

120
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: that they look at the rules every year baseball, and

121
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: it's not a critique on baseball, but it's in a

122
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: it's in a fix because no matter what they try

123
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: to do to speed up a game. As people's attention

124
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: spans shorten. It's hard to really do that with baseball

125
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: on a wide, wide range, and negle football has a

126
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: way to adjust with rules. They worked the last couple

127
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 1: of years to make the games a little bit shorter,

128
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: and I think the way that they treat commercial in

129
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: commercial in screen as with the action that that helps.

130
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: They have chipped some of the moments off of off

131
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: of game length. But you have the flexibility to deal

132
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: with these issues. This doesn't have to be an issue

133
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: next season. And I think Wes, I hear what you're saying,

134
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: but there's a way to do it without making the

135
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: game much longer if you apply it to certain parts

136
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: of the game. Or it's simply just a challenge. It's

137
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: it's challenges can't be trusted. To the NFL's credit, though,

138
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: they are always trying to improve it, and I think

139
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: they'll try something. And I think we're closer now on

140
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: replays and and everything than ever before. I I honestly,

141
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: and I don't think officiating is worse than it used

142
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: to be. People that was like a big topic this year.

143
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: It's like it's always they're always gonna be miscalls. These

144
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: are humans trying to officiate something that's almost impossible, and

145
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: we have more replays now. That's just you remember the

146
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: one season I think it was maybe two thousand three

147
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: or two thousand four, I from not mistaken when they

148
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: took replay away. Yes, and then there was at the

149
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: end of that year. I'm I was thinking about this

150
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: this morning. There was some game in week sixteen or

151
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: right a playoff deciding game where they did not they

152
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: could not apply replay and something was so ecoregious that

153
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: they were immediately brought replay back because it was a

154
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: totally referring to the John Kitten a helmet game. Well,

155
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: there was that. That was that was That was ninety eight,

156
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: and that led to replay coming back in nineteen. I

157
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: could have the timeline mix, but there was a year

158
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: where the replay went away, or a couple of years,

159
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: and then there was so many issues they brought. It

160
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: came into the league, I believe in the early nineties,

161
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: and then got voted out and was gone, and then

162
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: after a couple of gaffs in it put it back over.

163
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: I think it's been in the league since ninety nine.

164
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken you maybe at this point, I

165
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: don't trust coaches. When replay first came into being, it

166
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: was supposed to only be used for the huge, important

167
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: plays in a game. And I thought immediately, coaches are

168
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: going to challenge a four yard pass in the first quarter.

169
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: And we saw who was it who challenged plays in

170
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: the first first couple of minutes of the game and

171
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: lost both of them, and they were ridiculous, Like four

172
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: yard passes. You can't. I don't trust coaches to do

173
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: this and use discretion. In other news connected to this,

174
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: so yes, a lot of people are siding with the

175
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: Saints and and having empathy for the Saints and all that.

176
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: Ye please with the politicians who are like we're gonna

177
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: bring it up in Congress or like let's declare a

178
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: national state of emergency and look, and it's like, shut up,

179
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: you get a potential state. And even more ridiculous is like, hey,

180
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: the solution here, of course, is to start the game

181
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: over right at that moment with the first down. That's like,

182
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: shut up, idiot. Anyway, Andrew Whitworth was on the Rich

183
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: Eyes and Show and he you know what, He's sticking

184
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: up for his team because the Rams are really being

185
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: discredited a little bit here, even though they have vants

186
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl. Here's Whitworth's comments about the controversy

187
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 1: surrounding the no call. You see the arguments from some

188
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: of the Saints players about, you know, the rule about

189
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: the commissioners starting the game over or from that point

190
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: or whatever. My argument to that would be rich is

191
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: then Jared Goff got a face mask on the second

192
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: down right before the possession, and before that was not called,

193
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 1: that would be first in goal at the one down

194
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: three points. If you look at our odds from the

195
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: one this season, that's seven points, so they'd be down

196
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 1: four and the field goal wouldn't matter. They've had to

197
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: have scored in that situation either way. So the reality

198
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: is like where do you want, Like I said, where

199
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: is the last foul that you want to argue? And

200
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: whether it's like blatant or not, it's not a matter.

201
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: It's whether it's a foul. So it's just one of

202
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: those things that that's the slippery slope and it's an

203
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: excuse wherever you cut it. And the reality is they

204
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: got the football after that snap. They played an overtime

205
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: with the football. New England had the same situation and

206
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: won the game. They didn't score, we did. We can

207
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: argue about it all day, but they had, They had

208
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: an opportunity to win the game, and we want it.

209
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 1: That's fair. That's fair, is it? It's totally fair. It's

210
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: a bit of a false equivalency a play where nicol

211
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 1: Robie Coleman admitted that he purposely fouled the player to

212
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 1: prevent a touchdown versus you know, grazing a face. But

213
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: I also think great space leads to a penalty that

214
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 1: helped the Patriots in the later game. Both of these

215
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: are intellectually dishonest. Chiefs fans worried about the Patriots and

216
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: not even mentioning the Sammy Watkins pick play is intellectually dishonest.

217
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: Equiting the face masks to the Nicole Ruby Coleman play

218
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 1: is also just. I agree with that, and yet it's

219
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: a loser's lament. It's excuse. The excuse making part is

220
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: what stands out to me, and I I appreciated that

221
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: Drew Brees and Sean pay and even though they were

222
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: asked quite a bit about these calls, continued to say

223
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: because to me, they have kind of a championship winners mentality.

224
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: They continue to stress the millions of ways that they

225
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: made mistakes in that game and that they took accountability

226
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: for the loss, because you know, if you're gonna be

227
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: the best team in the in the league and win

228
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: a super Bowl, go make plays, Go make any number

229
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: of plays after that to go win it. And I

230
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: think that's how most of them really do understand. I

231
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: think it's fans who understandably feel different. I think it's

232
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: fair that Saints fans in this specific case are absolutely

233
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: going ballistic. But what if we were no bull enough

234
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: as a people, where the voice for change and replay

235
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: was just as loud from Rams fans. It's such a

236
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: it's such a fan thing. You have to deal with that.

237
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: It's the losing side that must have the war cry.

238
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 1: When both football fans from both teams should see that

239
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: that was a busted call, you should see it and

240
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,719
Speaker 1: argue for that not to happen, because it's gonna be

241
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: you next time. All right, let's move on. The Kansas

242
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: City Chiefs have parted ways with defensive coordinator Bob Sutton. Uh.

243
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: This comes a couple of days after the Chiefs fell

244
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: to the Pats in the A f C title game.

245
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: He took over um UH as he joined the staff

246
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: when Read and he Read took over in two thousand

247
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: thirteen in Kansas City. UH. He had been with the

248
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: Jets for thirteen years before that in a number of

249
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: capacities the Chiefs West Over their time UH with Sutton

250
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: were never a great defense. And now that the Chiefs

251
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: are trying to figure out, what do we have to

252
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: do to get over the hut huh hump, I guess

253
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: and getting rid of Sutton is part of that plan. Yeah.

254
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm always hesitant to sort of have a strong opinion

255
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: on all offensive and defensive coordinator hirings and firings because

256
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: I recognize that the limits of our knowledge here. I

257
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: just don't know how capable Bob Sutton is. I do

258
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: know that Mike Garafola was telling us on you know,

259
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: our our Twitter show yesterday that the Tony Romo is

260
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: calling out all these plays on air and it makes

261
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: Bob Sutton look bad when he knows he knows the

262
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: adjustments that the defense should be making, but the defensive

263
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: coordinator does. So they had a bottom six defense by

264
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: Football Outsiders Metrics two straight years, and I don't think

265
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: their bottom six in terms of total talent over the

266
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: last two years. And I do think Belichick and McDaniels

267
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: kind of point out that in the playoffs especially, I

268
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: think you need to have both sides of the ball

269
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: that are able to adjust their game plan significantly from

270
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: a week to week basis and a quarter to quarter

271
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: basis that they you're gonna need coaches that can be flexible.

272
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: And it seems like Sutton was not that Tom Brady

273
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: knew exactly what the defense was gonna do two straight

274
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: weeks against Gus Bradley and against Sutton. I mean, it's

275
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 1: it's another example though that like they had been talking

276
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: about parting ways with him. It sounds like for some

277
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: time or at least it was on the burner. But

278
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: when you get flamed by Tom Brady and overtime the

279
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: way that you do on national television and you carved

280
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: through a Chiefs defense as if you're operating against the

281
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: Pop Warner squad, heads will roll. And it's not just scapegoating.

282
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: It's like the other side to the overtime rule controversy

283
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: that everyone brings up is stop the Patriots. Note. You've

284
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: got to be the team that can do that. You're

285
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: in your home field and you got eaten alive by

286
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: the Patriots offense. Steve Spagnola has emerged as a favorite. Spagnol,

287
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: speaking of the Patriots, was the d C of the

288
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:46,359
Speaker 1: Giants when they dropped the eighteen in one uh Patriots

289
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: years ago. But he is have been wandering a little

290
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: bit in the wilderness sense, also in the wildern and

291
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: in the same sense, also in the wilderness. Rex Ryan,

292
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: who um has been out of football and working with

293
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: ESPN for a couple of years, and how he has

294
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: been brought up as a potential candidate. But it sounds

295
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: like Spags is the favorite at this point. We'll see

296
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: how it plays out. Wasn't Bob Sutton Rex Ryan's right

297
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: hand man for a while, Well, it's it's very similar.

298
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: It would you'd be bringing in someone to run a

299
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: very similar scheme. When Spags runs four three, you'd be

300
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: changing that defense from the ground up. I mean that

301
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: Rex Ryan report came from his place of employment and

302
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: they didn't say he was under consideration. They just said

303
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: he was a name to watch. Just like point taken

304
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: in other news. Carson Wentz is the quarterback of the

305
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: present and future of the Philadelphia Eagles, which uh is

306
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: good news for Eagles fans. Wentz is still a great

307
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: young players dealt with some injury issues. However, a report

308
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: out of Philadelphia Philly Voice cited some unnamed players UM

309
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: saying some nice not so nice things about um Carson Wentz.

310
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: Uh and UM. Stars for the Eagles were quick to

311
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: come to Wentz's defense, Lane Johnson, zach It's flex Fletcher

312
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: Cox amongst the chorus saying, don't listen to this hashtag

313
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: fake news. Carson Wentz is a great teammate and a

314
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: great guy, and we're happy to roll forward. Mark. That

315
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: was the roll forward with him. Mark. That was the

316
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: right reaction for a team that wants a controversy to

317
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: go away. I think so too. We talked about this

318
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: a little bit on the Twitter Show, and I think

319
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: that the today's NFL quarterback, you know, they dug into

320
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: the fact that this was. This are some of the

321
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 1: quotes coming out of this piece, a piece that claim

322
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: to talk to more than half a dozen players and

323
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: some sources, all who wanted to stay anonymous because they

324
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: feared Wens his power within the organization. First of all,

325
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: there are like at any point fifty to sixty players

326
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: you could talk to five or six is not a

327
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: sample size for this kind of a story. That would

328
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: be on one my one concern, but they kept rounding

329
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: it back. They critique him as selfish, uncompromising, egotistical, one

330
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: who plays favorites and doesn't like to be questioned, one

331
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: who needs to practice what he preaches, failed to take accountability,

332
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: and would complicate adding two plus two so there, that's

333
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: all fine and someone They said that essentially he complicated

334
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: the offense, which maybe that's something. There's something maybe too

335
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 1: instead of the young what Peterson says the run that

336
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: he overthinks it and asked all these questions. Well, they

337
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: said he would complicate. Well, he struggled on a statement

338
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 1: and mandated map. That's why he went to seven. One.

339
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 1: My one thing would say that a lot of these,

340
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: the mirror to these, all of us have these negative

341
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 1: qualities that the mirror to them are also positive. And

342
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 1: a lot of those talk to me about a quarterback

343
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: that's learning, um, that's behind the eight ball after being

344
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: an m VP candidate who then suddenly watched the backup

345
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: quarterback become the star of the town, change the team's

346
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: franchise history, forever and then try to come back and

347
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: get injured again and have the backup quarterback do it

348
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: all over you. It's a tough situation to be in,

349
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: and I think we've forgotten a little bit about all

350
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: the good elements that made Carson Wentz one of the

351
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,479
Speaker 1: future stars of the league. All sources question for this

352
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,959
Speaker 1: article said that they wanted Carson Wentz to succeed, and

353
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: I think my takeaway from this there were two main

354
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: problems that teammates had. Too often he didn't run the

355
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: play concept as the coaches designed it, whereas Nick Foles

356
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: did run it the way the coaches designed it, and

357
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: his head got a little bit too big after the

358
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: year before. But I thought of Steve Young because the first,

359
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: the first criticism didn't run the play concept the way

360
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: it's designed is a natural byproduct of running and escaping

361
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and laden the down improv quarterbacks. And Steve Young

362
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 1: said he was exactly that way until he realized, if

363
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm not running the play of the way Bill Walsh

364
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 1: designed it, my wide receivers are running routes for no reason.

365
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: My offensive linemen are blocking for no reason. You have

366
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: to be a good teammate and run the play away.

367
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: It's supposed to be run, but isn't that just like

368
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: it's a necessary step for developing and he like it.

369
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: Seemed like a big part of the complaint was all

370
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: he did was throw the ball the zach Ertz so

371
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: you could almost you could almost smell like, who is

372
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: it annoyed by by Carson Wentz that he's not, you know,

373
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: getting the ball as much some some receiver whatever. This

374
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: was a tough year for Wentz, There's no doubt about it.

375
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: And I think the best thing that can happen is

376
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: be another full year moved from the knee injury. Hopefully

377
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,360
Speaker 1: the issue that he developed with his back is nothing

378
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: that's going to hold him back in the off season.

379
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,959
Speaker 1: Uh and Folds will be out the door, which is

380
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 1: not a bad thing for Carson Wentz who really needs

381
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: kind of a clean slate, which I don't think he

382
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: ever had this year. No, I think that's true, And

383
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: I think the way Folds lead was real that he

384
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: really did kind of inspire his teammates and maybe once

385
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,919
Speaker 1: learned something from that. And I think the Eagles know

386
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: it too. And it really sounds been digging asking some

387
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: people about this. It really sounds like there's a bigger

388
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 1: chance than I would have guessed that Folds is maybe

389
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: gonna allow that Eagles to trade him, that he would

390
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: almost hand pick who they trade him to, because Philadelphia,

391
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: I think, really wants to avoid him ending up with

392
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: the Giants or Redskins, which are too of the three,

393
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: four or five more most likely teams to go after.

394
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald is coming back. The wide receiver has signed

395
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: a one year deal with the Cardinals sixteenth season. It

396
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: will be uh this upcoming September for Fitzgerald. He turns

397
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: thirty six in August, um easily the greatest player in

398
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: franchise history for the Cardinals, and he finds himself west

399
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,479
Speaker 1: Um at an age where he finally, even though he's

400
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 1: been around some bad quarterbacks of the years, finally his

401
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: statistics started to kind of fall off a little bit.

402
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: He'd kind of been um statistic falloff proof for a while.

403
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: This year dropped to sixty nine for seven, thirty four

404
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 1: and six touch on. Still nice numbers for sure, but

405
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: he is in the middle of a rebuild, so it's

406
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 1: commendable that he he just loves the game. He wants

407
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: to be part of the Cardinals. He's not trying to

408
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: go anywhere else, but he's certainly not in the super

409
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: Bowl race this late in his career. Yeah, he's not

410
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: been a number one receiver for a few years. As

411
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: far as playmaking ability, I mean, he's still got great hands,

412
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: still sells out, gives up his body on every play.

413
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: He's a prose pro um. But I he's second to

414
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: Jerry Rice and a lot of stats, which is amazing

415
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 1: considering Jerry Rice spent his career with Bill Walsh, Steve

416
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: Young and Joe Montana and Larry Fitzgerald has spent way

417
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 1: too many years catching passes from Jabroni's with other Jabbronis

418
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: calling the plays. Yeah, part of me was, that's to

419
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: JABRONI take rut that. I mean, he is so embedded

420
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: in the community in Arizona. He's he's the most famous

421
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: player ever from that franchise, And so I get maybe

422
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: why goes somewhere else for that one year that maybe

423
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: if you're not the best receiver, is a forgotten yere

424
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: somewhere else. But why I feel just depressed that he

425
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: won't have a chance to chase the title with a

426
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: contender one season. I know, I know and he chose

427
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 1: not to. He's an institution. There. Let's move on. Alex

428
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: Smith spotted at a NBA game the Wizards. I believe

429
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 1: he was checking out a Wizard's game and he went

430
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,719
Speaker 1: down to the locker room and is as you would imagine,

431
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: there are reporters down there snapping photos. And he had

432
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: a gnarly leg brace. Uh, one of those freaky ones

433
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: where the wires are going into the leg and it's just,

434
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: you know, it's medieval. It's like the worst thing you'd

435
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: want to have on your leg. I mean, it's technically

436
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: the farthest thing from medieval because it's like the height

437
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: of modern medical technology. But yes, that's the height. I

438
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: think they've been using decades this. I did some research

439
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 1: on this. They've been using whatever this thing is where

440
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: they connect the the bone because they had the infection,

441
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: so they had to take out the internal rod and

442
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 1: then put on this medieval device that they haven't changed

443
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:48,239
Speaker 1: the technology of it in decades. All right. That's and

444
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 1: I know nothing about the technology in itself, but I

445
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: read about to say that it's you know, twenty years

446
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: old or nineteen years old, still does not tug us

447
00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: back to medieval times technically, well it's okay. Um anyway,

448
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: long story short, No, I think let's keep going. That

449
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: was good. Long story short. Alex Smith is not out

450
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: of the woods by any stretch in terms of surgery

451
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 1: and rehab. And Bruce Allen, the Redskins GM a day

452
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: after Smith was spotted, um uh, could only offer this

453
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 1: at the Senior Bowl during a practice in Mobile, Alabama.

454
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: He's moving around and well on his way to recovery.

455
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: It's a tough thing for him and his family. All

456
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: the love and care has helped him quite a bit.

457
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. We're optimistic. If anyone could

458
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 1: come back, it's Alex. I'm sure he wanted to shoot

459
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: hoops at the game yesterday, but we'll see. His contract

460
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: is guaranteed for this year, so the Redskins have every

461
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: you know, motivation to try to help him along in

462
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,479
Speaker 1: his recovery. But by the terms of the contract, they

463
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: actually have to guarantee his next couple of years by March.

464
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: I would think they'll be able to work something out

465
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: with the agent to put that date off, you would hope,

466
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: or else they're in the spot where they kind of

467
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: need to cut him because regardless they can't really go

468
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: into the season with him as their starter. They can't

469
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: be counting on that in April or make Colt McCoy

470
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: is also a free agent. I don't know if they

471
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: really want Colt McCoy to be their starter. So I

472
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: mean they are a team if Nick Foles was available,

473
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: or Teddy Bridgewater, whoever, Nick Joe Flacco, I don't know

474
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: that you would think they're going to be one of

475
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: those teams at the top of the list going for

476
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: these guys. I'll go a step further. It's not just

477
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: they can't count on him for the starter of next year,

478
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,919
Speaker 1: they can't count on him to ever be an NFL

479
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 1: starter level quarter again. He's thirty five years old. He

480
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,239
Speaker 1: was a problem for them competitively before the injury, and

481
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: that their offense didn't have any element outside the numbers

482
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: in downfield and it was easy to defend their passing game.

483
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: So much of his game is his athleticism and running ability,

484
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: and who knows what that leg is gonna be like.

485
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: I also think that if you're Jake Gruden, you can't think, hey,

486
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,959
Speaker 1: let's talk, how about you know, author a winning season

487
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: right now, or you're gonna be the next one out

488
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: the door. Uh. In other quarterback news, Drew Brees still

489
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: smarting from Sunday's loss, but he's not ready to quit.

490
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: Drew Brees UH said that that overtime loss is not

491
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 1: the end. He plots a return in two thousand nineteen.

492
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: Here's what Breeze said. I plan on being here next

493
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: year and making another run out of run at it,

494
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: uh via ESPNS Mike Triplet and Breeze turns for it or.

495
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: He turned forty this month, and he had one of

496
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 1: his best seasons statistically in eighteen and a year left

497
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: on his contract, Greg, So none of this is particularly surprising.

498
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: I guess you can only play the what if game

499
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,239
Speaker 1: if they did go to the super Bowl this year,

500
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 1: if they won, would he feel differently? But that's not

501
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: the case. He's playing so well that I and he

502
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: loves the game so much. I think he's gonna want

503
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 1: to keep playing. There's no reason for him not to.

504
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: And I think the Saints are gonna be back in

505
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: that spot where they've been a few times. I mean,

506
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: the report, it's basically been confirmed, was they wanted to

507
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: take Patrick Mahomes with the number eleven pick. Was that ort?

508
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: I mean so that's a high pick. They were ready

509
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 1: to start thinking about the post breeze era, and I

510
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 1: think they'll be looking at this draft for quarterbacks to

511
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: West is there, Well, it's gonna say there's been multiple

512
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: drafts where we've gotten reports from Ian rap reports saying

513
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 1: that the Saints are, you know, fishing around for like

514
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: a second round quarterback as the air apparent Breason, these

515
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: guys have coming gone. Jimmy g was Jimmy g was

516
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 1: one of them. That's how long ago was. Don't you

517
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: have to take a long, hard look at your Sean

518
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 1: Payton at why the offense created and why Drew Brees

519
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: numbers went from m v P like to about the

520
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: worst quarterback in the league over the low worst quarterback

521
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: in the laces. His passer rating was like seventy over

522
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: the last what six weeks, and I was no big

523
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: plays down the field except the jump ball to who

524
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: was at tra Kwan Smith or Tech Ginn in the

525
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: last game. I was gonna say West that at what

526
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 1: point do those limitations with his arm strength really catch

527
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: up with him? Because they were on display a couple

528
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: of times down the stretch of the season, and he

529
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: did throw he had um Dante Fowler right in his face,

530
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: of course, but he threw the interception that's set up

531
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 1: the game. Uh and then kick from Legatron. You wonder

532
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: is Breeze a candidate? Like a fall off the cliff

533
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: Caunity Guy Warren Sharp on Twitter posted a video of

534
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: a hit that Drew Brees took in the Thanksgiving Day

535
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: game against the Falcons, and there's no way of knowing

536
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,159
Speaker 1: whether they contributed to what happened down the stretch, but

537
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: he did play like a quarterback who was had a

538
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 1: problem with his arm or was injured in some way.

539
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: Maybe it's his rib cage or his oblique and couldn't

540
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: get enough. I think he can work around his limitations though,

541
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: you know they ultimately the seventeen eighteen games stretch, to

542
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: me is the best way to measure in Over those

543
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 1: eighteen games, they were third in the league in scoring

544
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: and move the ball. But they might need the running

545
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: game to be better. I mean, the running game did

546
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: not show up for the most part in the playoffs.

547
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: The defense has really improved and I think that will

548
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: help them. Finally, in the news, the London Games have

549
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,360
Speaker 1: been announced. It's no longer the International Series. If you're

550
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: following along at home. It's now called the London Games.

551
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: So what so the what about the Mexico game? That's

552
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: its own thing. Those are it's an international game, but

553
00:27:55,119 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: the branding you see shout out to VP Henry Hodgson,

554
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 1: NFL UK Hank, Yes there's a Mexico game. The Chiefs

555
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: at Chargers. Uh so they get another shot at it, hopefully.

556
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: The fields a good shape of the UK games. Panthers

557
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: at Tampa Bay, Bears at Raiders, Ben Gals at Rams,

558
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: and Texas at Jaguars. The games that we played at

559
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: the Tottenham Hotspurs New Stadium and two more at Wembley.

560
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 1: What is the what is the greg What ties these

561
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: teams together? Chargers, Bucks, Raiders, Rams, Jaguars. Teams with uncertain

562
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: home field situations like temporary or they're not They're okay, yeah,

563
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: they're not great at selling tickets for the most part.

564
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: That's I guess it totally okay giving up that home game.

565
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: Not all teams. The Packers aren't giving up a home game.

566
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: The Bucks, the Jags, the Rams, the Raiders, the Chargers,

567
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: well a lot of them also now that I'm thinking, uh,

568
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: have team the ownership owned soccer teams in the UK

569
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: at least three of that dozen time all the Bucks,

570
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: Rams and Jacks, but three of the three ice point.

571
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: I liked the point, but I was saying, all five, well,

572
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: the Chargers are like they really don't have like a

573
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 1: a steady home. Fine, it just wasn't quite what wasn't

574
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: like Nancy True two point out. But I thought he

575
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: connected some dots there. I thought it was more salient

576
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: than the first point. Salience salient by the way I

577
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: put the sally into salion. Mark, I'm gonna help you

578
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: out a little bit here. September seven, six, instant replay

579
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: was used for the first time in a game. It

580
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: was gone after the ninety one season. It returned in

581
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: huh wow. It was out for eight and then it

582
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: never on the radar. See. My memory of it was

583
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: I was in a pool hall, um like when when

584
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: I watched this egregious non replay play kills someone's season,

585
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: and I thought that it must have been but you

586
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 1: don't know who it was. That was back when a

587
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: Hustler was a four decade This was a four o'clock game. Um,

588
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: do you think it was? Mark was just there four

589
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: in the afternoon he couldn't even break the balls, like

590
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: he looked like he didn't know what was happening. I would,

591
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: let's play against this suddenly, and suddenly I'd go to

592
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: other people and not even play pool. I was just saying,

593
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: hanging around on the fringe and watch the football. But

594
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: I don't even but clearly I have no memory of

595
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: what of what else was happening at that time that day.

596
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,479
Speaker 1: It's funny because you don't. I don't remember that from

597
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 1: the nineties at all. But it's because the camera angles

598
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: and HD and every in. Replays weren't as good because

599
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: they're just you didn't have the shots to even be

600
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: filled with the outrage that you know, you know what

601
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 1: I mean. The big difference between eighty six to ninety

602
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: one and nine to present, and it is significant this

603
00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: coming from our statisticians slash researcher slashducer Erica tampose Um.

604
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: Instead of officials deciding when to implement a replay, coaches

605
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: had the right to challenge. That was the change. Initially,

606
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: the officials are making the decision. I don't remember that either,

607
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: which is strange. You didn't work whoever's if river On

608
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: stays or wherever takes his spot. That's the guy who

609
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 1: should be initiating, taken out of the coach's hands. I

610
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 1: know we're probably not going to get a row. They

611
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: do that when like we try to write up three

612
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: games at the same time and I want like an

613
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 1: assassin to take me out. How does al riveron looking

614
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: at like twelve games at the same time. I was

615
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: speaking more for playoffs, but all right, well that works

616
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: for playoffs. Um, we're probably not gonna get our riveron

617
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: part three. At the end, we don't know. We don't

618
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 1: know he's been and you're probably not getting that assassin either,

619
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: which is we're all thankful for expensive How can we

620
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: mention poolhouse, pool holes without mentioning Dan's work at Lost

621
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: and Found? I said, I said, home a guy that

622
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: was potentially a ghost. He's got man cruel as we

623
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 1: called it. He showed up. He played there every day

624
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: every night at Lost and Found with a He brought

625
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: his own stick in the leather case and all that.

626
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: He was like, Junior, you want to break some balls

627
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: with me? He's talking about pool and he thought I

628
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: was just another mark, And um I took him down,

629
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: I buried him and then he just floated out of

630
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: there like a like some type of apparition. Apparition you

631
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: broke him, sent him to hell. He didn't have that

632
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: much in his life and he had had to guy fund.

633
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: He went to Hanano after that. Clean up your remote

652
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: breaking news. What he got? A little man named Davil

653
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 1: Loggins has been hired as the offensive coordinator of Keith

654
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: Haransas his New York Jets. Welcome aboard, Dowell. I mean,

655
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: you guys, get on me for the low bar of

656
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: breaking news here. I thought about this one, but it

657
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: had been kind of out there for a week or so,

658
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 1: so it's a little did not happened. He was only

659
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 1: granted permission in the last Dolphins were speak to that

660
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: they wanted the Dolphins were not granting permission, and then

661
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: they cleared it. What was the in house tussle in

662
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: Miami about that, like somewhere like we've got to keep him,

663
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: gotta keep Dowell. What's this ridiculous rule where Brian Flores

664
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: can't become the coach of the Dolphins. So the Dolphins,

665
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,439
Speaker 1: I guess I'm assuming you're like, well, let's just keep

666
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 1: some people in the building just in case they Patton Oswald. Um, Hey,

667
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: when you can get the gang back together, that created

668
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: scoring defense in and then the best scoring offense, I mean,

669
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: rather an offense that you gotta do it. M hmm,

670
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: very funny. Seriously really tired. Uh, let's get to our

671
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:04,760
Speaker 1: next set. This program is about unsolved mysteries. Whenever possible,

672
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 1: the actual family members and police officials have participated in

673
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: recreating the events. What you're about to see is not

674
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: a newsed broadcast Solved Mysteries of Super Bowl fifty three.

675
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,399
Speaker 1: We saw that this show is coming back on Netflix, right. Yeah,

676
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,439
Speaker 1: some people reach out to me about it, said that, oh,

677
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: you'd be interested in this, and yes I am. But

678
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: one thing you can't overlook with Unsolved Mysteries and its

679
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: original incarnation with Robert Stack from eighties six to ninety,

680
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:53,439
Speaker 1: whatever it was that ran was the aesthetic of that show,

681
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: the time and place, the way it looked, the way

682
00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 1: it sounded, and Roberts Stack's voice and and his the

683
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: way he looked at the front and center. That's not

684
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: easy to recreate. Did anybody see the the reboot they

685
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: did with that other guy, No, no, nobody. They try

686
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 1: to reboot this show already. It's hard to get back

687
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: what has already passed, which was that late eighties when

688
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: people didn't really know things, You couldn't looked things up.

689
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 1: That vibe, the way the recreations looked, there's always kind

690
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: of like a haunting element to it all and then

691
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 1: Stack just standing in a graveyard in a suit. I

692
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: now this one. How many mysteries are there in the

693
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: Internet age? You can solve most of them just with

694
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: a click of your mouth. Did you know that Raymond

695
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 1: Burr and Carl Maulden preceded Robert Stack did not in

696
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: initial car initial incarnations of the show, because the first

697
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: unsolved mysteries came right after the Giants Broncos Super Bowl,

698
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: and it was on late at night where if you

699
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 1: were a kid back then, you were lucky if you

700
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: had like a little tiny television in your room. And like,

701
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: I was watching the first ever episode, and it freaked

702
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 1: me the f out and I was hooked forever, because

703
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: there's always some over you. So January six years old. No,

704
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: I don't know a preteen twelve. Nobody remembers that Dennis

705
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: Frina two thousand eight to two thousand ten reboot. No,

706
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,439
Speaker 1: but I remember Dennis Farina was on like Wise Guy

707
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: or something, wasn't he none of those shows we've all.

708
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 1: We also lost Dennis Frina. He has moved on to

709
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: the next life, whatever that may be. I know that

710
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 1: whatever showed my dad was happily watching that show answer. Yes,

711
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 1: I think there are plenty of mysterious elements in the

712
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: world around us. Sure, but there are far there are

713
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,760
Speaker 1: far fewer mysteries now than there weren't. All Right, nice setup, boys,

714
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 1: Now we will dig into some of the unsolved mysteries.

715
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: I'll get this one going. I'll just started out you ready, Yep,

716
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:50,479
Speaker 1: here's an unsold mystery which Todd Gurley. Will we see

717
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: on the first Sunday in February? You know, is it

718
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: gonna be the transcendent Hall of Fame caliber running back

719
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,760
Speaker 1: who has served as the face of the Rams offense

720
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 1: in the McVeigh era, or the hammonagger bench warmer, ride

721
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: in the bike suddenly on even footing or less with

722
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: a street free agent during the most important games of

723
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 1: the season. Everybody keeps onsane, Oh, well, he was hurt,

724
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: he's tired. You gotta get a tradition in West nice

725
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: points by you. But and Greg's like, that's a big deal,

726
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: like they have about the same touches. I was like, well,

727
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: how about this. It's Todd Gurley, guys, and he just

728
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 1: just disappeared from the game plan. Will he return? That's

729
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: a mystery to me. I think he will because he

730
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,879
Speaker 1: matches up well with the Patriots. They've struggled all year,

731
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: so now he's a matchup running back in these playoffs.

732
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: He's not himself, like, why are we talking? Why this

733
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 1: is the elephant the room? Why are we acting like

734
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: this is like october Ti he made it. Here's the thing.

735
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 1: Though he said he's healthy, he made a couple of guys.

736
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 1: It's not the same as being in shape and confidite.

737
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: What is he like sitting on the couch for the

738
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: past a knee injury. Here's the thing. Confidence in a while.

739
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: You can't tell me he wasn't explosive on that touchdown

740
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: run against the Cowboys. I mean he's got some juice, right,

741
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,439
Speaker 1: and uh, he's you're part of the cover ups. They're

742
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: part of this conspiracy. Janderson has played great and Todd

743
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,839
Speaker 1: Gurley started that game dropping passes and causing big time

744
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 1: problems for his team. And so that's why he didn't play.

745
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: And I think his speed to the outside is what

746
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 1: you can do well against the Patriots, and that's what

747
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: he brings well. Yeah, except that you give the Patriots

748
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: two weeks to prepare for speed to the outside, and

749
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: I I don't I'm not really buying into matchup problems

750
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: for New England. And suddenly the Patriots are like the

751
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 1: greatest team of all They're going to win the super Bowl.

752
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: That's what they're going. That's already been decided the last

753
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: the best team in the league right now, the last

754
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 1: from the public agrees with you. The desert will take

755
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: a lot of it will take a bath. Uh if

756
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: that happens, because the public has been believing in the Patriots.

757
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: I'm talking about girl and whether he's healthy or not,

758
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,799
Speaker 1: you're you're both saying different things. West is saying, this

759
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: man is not right, and that explains all of this.

760
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: Whether the knees still banged up, or his conditioning got

761
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: messed up or whatever. He's just not the same guy.

762
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: You're saying, Greg, that can be the same guy. He's

763
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 1: just happy it's the same guy. But it was a

764
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 1: coaching decision to not utilize him as much because his

765
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: skill set is more as an outside runner, which I

766
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: don't quite buy at the same guy, and as a receiver,

767
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: which he dropped passes and struggle. He's still played half

768
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: the snaps and I do think he just hasn't been

769
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,879
Speaker 1: as good as C. J. Anderson over the last month.

770
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: Andersson still position player in the NFL at mid season.

771
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: He's obviously not the same thing, right, This is such

772
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: an unsolved mystery. I think everything goes health and we're

773
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: not hearing about his We don't have the truth on

774
00:40:53,880 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 1: his head. H I like that. How about the unsolved

775
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: mystery whether Gronk goes out a champion, whether he announces,

776
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: and how he's gonna handle his the retirement question throughout

777
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 1: the week? Are we gonna know that this is Gronkowski's

778
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: last game? Or is there gonna are we not gonna know?

779
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: And then Ian Rappaport reports it on the Sunday morning

780
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 1: before Is he gonna get the stray hand or bettest

781
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: moment or something lesser? Like the year that the Patriots

782
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 1: held their celebration party even though they lost to the

783
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 1: Giants in two thousand twelve, and I was in my

784
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: hotel room in Indianapolis hearing that music play, uh, and

785
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,760
Speaker 1: then eventually watching videos of Gronk dancing at that party

786
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,280
Speaker 1: the next morning. I hope that's not the way it happens.

787
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: My guests would be whatever route is the least offers

788
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: the least amount of drama to the Patriots that if you.

789
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: I just don't think that he wants to turn it

790
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: into such a subplot or a team does where it's

791
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: it's an issue. I don't think it would be either way.

792
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 1: I think we know he's going to retire, essentially, don't

793
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 1: we We think we do. I mean, that's where it's

794
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 1: all pointing, but no one's really come right out and

795
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 1: said it. He doesn't strike me as if we get

796
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: nipped in the super Bowl, I've got to come back

797
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: and win another. He just doesn't if they win. I

798
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,720
Speaker 1: think it's absolutely curtains. I think he's got like an

799
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 1: energy drake empire to build and he's ready to do it,

800
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: and his body is completely beat up. I know he's

801
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: played really well. Um he was an amazing blocker two

802
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: weeks ago and he was a nice receiver this past week,

803
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:39,359
Speaker 1: but his body last two for the playoffs. How many

804
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 1: times can you go under the night, Like, at what

805
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 1: point does your body? I mean, it sounds like the

806
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: guy it's hard for him just to play football at

807
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 1: this point. Um, so it would not be a surprise

808
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 1: if he retires, right, No, I think we're I'm more

809
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 1: like that. I'm sort of thinking how he does, yeah,

810
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: how he does it, how it's handled during the week,

811
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: and then certainly how you know if they win or lose,

812
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 1: how how it happens after the game. But it would

813
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: be great to see him go out in a blaze

814
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 1: of glory. Mark, how about an ONSOB mystery from you?

815
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 1: All right? I want to know what from the wilderness

816
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: evil controversy will be unleashed on the Patriots, most likely

817
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: smack dab this Sunday morning, with one dangerously long Super

818
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 1: Bowl week to go, a controversy that forces us to

819
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: reflect on Spygate and deflate Gate, while prompting four thousand

820
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 1: journals heads to explode as their precious flock of pre

821
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 1: written think pieces are sent into the abyss forever, as

822
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: editorial deaths around the nation dissolved into panic over this

823
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 1: latest latest Patriots false flag event, which is treated not

824
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 1: unlike a third Gulf War. What Pat's controversy will arise?

825
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 1: You tell me pour one out for Robert Stack. I

826
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: have a theory, um, somebody will leak something time. The

827
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: beginning of Spygate was, of course the Rams Patriots Superville. Yes,

828
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,720
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick cheated and he taped practices of the Rams

829
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,799
Speaker 1: preparing for the Super Bowl, which allowed him to then

830
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,439
Speaker 1: um great offenses of all time, leading to the first

831
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:19,479
Speaker 1: Pat's win. Um someone nonsense, someone connected to the those

832
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:23,319
Speaker 1: that videotaping scandal. Uh, these tapes under lock and key.

833
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 1: I think we were told they were destroyed. They are

834
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 1: going to show up. Well, that's like an unsolved mysteries

835
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: update when they tell you what happened on the other

836
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 1: end of the mystery. I thought you were gonna say, like,

837
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: someone from that era is gonna start talking, and I

838
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: would say, well, that's already been solved. I think Mike

839
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 1: Martz and Dick vermal are actually at podiums right now

840
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: in Atlanta speaking. There's no one there, but they're just

841
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: complaining about the Patriots in general, and they're just waiting

842
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: for everyone to show up so that they can talk

843
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 1: about it. That's that's my predictions. I love that tapes well,

844
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: well like perfect, like Mark Smell in a lot of

845
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 1: Mark It's this week, who gets the tapes? Jay Glazer? Glazer,

846
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 1: Let's see that's a good. That's good. Won't be Ian

847
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,240
Speaker 1: because it can't be anyone connected to the league. Um

848
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: Chefty obviously is a guy. You can get it Glazer.

849
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: He has so many. I'm gonna go to Chefty Chefty

850
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: with one of the bigger scoops he's had in a while, big, big,

851
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: big prediction by you all right, West, you got one. Yeah,

852
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 1: here's here's an all unsolved mystery. You know, going back

853
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: over a decade now, smart people, way smarter than us,

854
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 1: have said the way to stop Tom Brady is pressure

855
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: up the middle. As if that's not the way to

856
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 1: stop any quarterback whoever played. Uh, he hasn't been hit

857
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,120
Speaker 1: and he hasn't been sacked in two playoff games. The

858
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 1: interior of the Patriots offensive line is their strength. And

859
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 1: now they go up against the defensive player of the

860
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 1: year and in Dominican Sue, who's playing as well as

861
00:45:54,440 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: he's played all year. What happens not if, but when

862
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:04,280
Speaker 1: Tom Brady finally gets hit, because it's coming. Aaron Donald

863
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: is not going to be shut out and Dominican Sue

864
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: is not gonna be shut out from hitting Tom Brady.

865
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 1: This is a guy who for five years we were

866
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,959
Speaker 1: astonished that he had reversed aging to the point where

867
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 1: his pocket movement actually improved late in his thirties and

868
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: early forties, and this year, for the first time. We

869
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: saw the opposite of that. We saw him flinch, we

870
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,919
Speaker 1: saw him turn his shoulders, we saw him shy away

871
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: from contact. What happened? Can I offer that we have evidence? History?

872
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: As you say, often Wes is instructive. When you do

873
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 1: hassle Tom Brady, he is not nearly nearly as effective.

874
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: So it's not really Are we gonna see the well

875
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: last year? Though? I would say they did a good

876
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 1: job getting after him in the Super Bowl and there

877
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 1: they were all over him throughout the game and he

878
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: kind of beat them. Anyways, are we gonna see the

879
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 1: November Brady playing through an m c L injury or

880
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,720
Speaker 1: were gonna see the guy who looked it's pretty comfy

881
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: in the pocket, I think the ladder. It's tough to

882
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 1: tell because he I could Chargers game, the game plan

883
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 1: like never allowed for him to get hit. He got

884
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 1: rid of the ball so quickly last game. A lot

885
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: of that was his own priest pre snap savvy, and

886
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 1: some of it was the offensive line too, but he

887
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,359
Speaker 1: what it was at nineties seven plays they ran and

888
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: he got grazed by Chris Jones's hand on his face mask,

889
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: and that's it. Getting mc L Brady. Is Brady on

890
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 1: the injury report from the shot to the face mask.

891
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 1: I you know, sometimes they don't reveal these injuries, but

892
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 1: I guarantee he's been feeling that Mark has been reliving

893
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 1: that play again and again for some reason. That Jones

894
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: stuck in your cry that bothered me legitimately was bothersome. Alright,

895
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: one more round. Here's an unsolved mr. What is Tony

896
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: Romo going to do as a follow up to the

897
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 1: a f C Championship Game. No announcer has ever received

898
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 1: praise at this level in real time. Maybe after a

899
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 1: guy dies, you know, guy croaks and all of a sudden.

900
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 1: If there was the Internet in the Madden days, he

901
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 1: might have. But it's just button there. He was one

902
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 1: of the biggest stories in football on Sunday, on a

903
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: day in which both games to decide the Super Bowl

904
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 1: went to overtime. That's that's That's a fact, Jack, And

905
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: it shows us a couple of things. One, how incredible

906
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,360
Speaker 1: Romo is at the job. It's just you can't dispute

907
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 1: that he's just a natural. Like the way Ted Williams

908
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,400
Speaker 1: was with the baseball bat and Shad, that's Romo with

909
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:39,000
Speaker 1: the mic number two, how the viewing habits of fans

910
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 1: have become more attuned to this type of stuff we

911
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 1: now and and and as for all the ills of

912
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,920
Speaker 1: social media, the fact that the communal nature of watching

913
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 1: these telecasts, everybody likes to talk about Romo in real

914
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 1: time now, so that it was like a perfect storm

915
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 1: for the Romo love. But Romo knows this because he's

916
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,879
Speaker 1: been getting bombarded with interview requests and he reads all

917
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 1: this stuff and his agents calling him and patting him

918
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 1: on the back. What does Tony Romo do for an

919
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: i'd core? Does he potentially get a little bit? You know?

920
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 1: NOIVS is it? Can his will his his performance because

921
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 1: CBS has the Super Bowl? Will his performance a week

922
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: from Sunday suffer because of all the hype and just

923
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 1: you know, the all the applauding of his of his performance.

924
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 1: Will he suffer? I think he's a natural and it

925
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: doesn't enter his mind, like he's not someone to second

926
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 1: guess himself because it comes so naturally to him. And

927
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: and I love Ramo. I think he's the best analyst

928
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 1: I've heard in any sport ever. Um, but I would

929
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 1: say people shot across Bob Costas is a bow by

930
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 1: the way, he's not an analyst. People will accept the point.

931
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 1: People overrate his ability to predict a win, a play

932
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:01,279
Speaker 1: is gonna happen. At underrate what he sees before the

933
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 1: snap that the quarterback is going through as opposed to

934
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: calling the exactly right play. I think by one area,

935
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:10,799
Speaker 1: if you talk about nerves, which I don't think he's

936
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: really prone to the way that um some do. Some

937
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 1: over prepare and they come in with all this prepackaged

938
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: stuff that they forced down your throat. Romo doesn't do that.

939
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: Romo lets the game come to him, which I think

940
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 1: if it's a good game, you're gonna get vintage Romo.

941
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: The one area if there was one little correctable thing.

942
00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: And other people love this about him. This is where

943
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,960
Speaker 1: I sometimes can could take it down and notches his excitement,

944
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,600
Speaker 1: Uh is so up in the sky and it's like,

945
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 1: all right, cool, chill just a little bit. But although

946
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:42,759
Speaker 1: that's a very minor, minor critique because he is as

947
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 1: close to perfect, I agree with Greg though. I think

948
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,120
Speaker 1: if you had Madden back in the day, when you

949
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,479
Speaker 1: realize what he is, when he's not when he became

950
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: sort of ace hardware guy, you know, with his statements

951
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 1: boom and all this, like when he was showing you

952
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 1: stuff and he was writing books as well, that we're

953
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,560
Speaker 1: teaching people about football the way they never had. He

954
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 1: was a teacher, and before he became you know, the

955
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 1: latter stages version of him, he would have been getting

956
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 1: some of this, uh this as well. Books are great.

957
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,760
Speaker 1: By the way, people always ask us for book recommend

958
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: nations of football books and I never we never think

959
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 1: to recommend those are The early Madden books are fun.

960
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,960
Speaker 1: There's no question. When Madden came on in the scene

961
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:22,000
Speaker 1: in like he was hailed like Romo is. Now. To me,

962
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 1: the one big difference between them is that Madden was

963
00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 1: an expert on the interior. You're on the trenches, and

964
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 1: he would tell you things about the offensive line that

965
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 1: people never knew, whereas Romos seeing the game through the

966
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks eyes, just as fans are seeing it through the

967
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 1: quarterback's eyes. And I think that takes it to another level.

968
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,920
Speaker 1: Is a great point. Christopher, how about Pat summer Roll

969
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 1: an ex player doing play by play? Now that's countercultural.

970
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 1: That was great. Frank Gifford West, give us an unsolved

971
00:51:52,040 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 1: Mr is nicol Robie Coleman ready to take the spotlight again,

972
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 1: because nobody can keep Julian Edelman and check in the

973
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. In any Super Bowl, this guy has been

974
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 1: unstoppable because of his mind meld with Tom Brady, his

975
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,560
Speaker 1: quick cutting ability, he's route running, his his punt return

976
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,480
Speaker 1: ability once he catches the ball. Marcus Peters and keep

977
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 1: to Lee are too physically big to hang with Julian

978
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: Edelman and coverage. They're never quick enough on those route

979
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: adjustments where you gotta see it through Tom Brady's eyes.

980
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 1: You need a five ft eight lightning bug, jitterbug like

981
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: Nicole Robie Coleman, and he I think he's the only

982
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 1: guy who can hang with Edelman, the guy that in

983
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: a full on panic like basically blew the season first

984
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: team and got bailed out by two completely in over

985
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:49,359
Speaker 1: their head officials. I think I'm nervous. Brady said, they've

986
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 1: played their best four games of the year in a row,

987
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:53,239
Speaker 1: and in three of those they've and I think one

988
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 1: of the maybe the number one reason other than Brady

989
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:00,120
Speaker 1: is is Edelman returning to his form. Uh And he

990
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,319
Speaker 1: said on his t shirts, you know bet against us

991
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: Dan to the point where you talked about it. His

992
00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 1: shirts so much that someone from his apparel company or

993
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 1: he heard it on the podcast, and he's sending not

994
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 1: some bet against us, so maybe we can you can

995
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:17,240
Speaker 1: all wear that, we can all wear it at the Superman.

996
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 1: How pathetic is that that that Edelman? I think it's great.

997
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:25,280
Speaker 1: It was a naked attempt to profit off the fans

998
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:29,840
Speaker 1: on a completely completely bs you know this theory that

999
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 1: somehow everyone was against. The people were against, whether they

1000
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: respected or not, if different, and they were against. And

1001
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 1: if you're listening Julian Edelman's people, oh here we go.

1002
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 1: You know what. We don't watch your shirts want we

1003
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 1: all wanted. Everyone watched. Doesn't accept free things to curry favor.

1004
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 1: You do not even think about sending my kids for Toddler.

1005
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: I don't know if you have any little ones, but

1006
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 1: I don't want your t shirt, Julian Eleman, I don't

1007
00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:09,440
Speaker 1: want anything from you. I'll take yours. Greg to hear

1008
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:13,360
Speaker 1: that music. I feel like we have so much time

1009
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:16,640
Speaker 1: place to talk about the game. I'm thinking more about

1010
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 1: off the field. How's a town, How is a town

1011
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 1: gonna be as a super Bowl city? And how is

1012
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 1: a town gonna show up for us Thursday night? During

1013
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: our lives show. To me, that's the un solved mystery

1014
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 1: that's most in my heart. What is that night that

1015
00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 1: experience going to be like? And in general what kind

1016
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: of super Bowl city? Because Atlanta gets a lot of

1017
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 1: a lot of heat as one of the great American

1018
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 1: underrated cities. I wanna I want to see if they

1019
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 1: come with it one actually, especially Thursday night at City Winery,

1020
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,359
Speaker 1: is it gonna be kind of a raucous Atlanta crowd.

1021
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:54,280
Speaker 1: I think that's what they bring. One early favorable sign

1022
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: is that we have listeners, one of them Ian Smith

1023
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 1: already sending along blogs and top ten us for breweries,

1024
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,360
Speaker 1: bars and telling us which ones not to go to.

1025
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:06,839
Speaker 1: If you go to my Twitter page, there is an

1026
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:10,399
Speaker 1: article by Kyle Castroneck. If you're an immediate person going

1027
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 1: to Atlanta, he lists his way to survive and thrive

1028
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 1: in Atlanta as a that's a great drinker. And the

1029
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,840
Speaker 1: who who sent to who's been sending us recommendations? Kyle Smith,

1030
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 1: a fellow named Ian Smith along this article and so

1031
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:28,360
Speaker 1: he cares about us. That's very helpful. Breaking news again,

1032
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,600
Speaker 1: Dowaoguan is fired by the Jets four minutes going on

1033
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:37,399
Speaker 1: breaking news, my mom, who I'm not sure has ever

1034
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,879
Speaker 1: listened to an episode of our podcast. I think she's

1035
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 1: driving down from Cincinnati and going to Situry Wine City

1036
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: Winery Thursday night to watch This Is Wesley. How far

1037
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 1: drive is that? It's like seven hours? It's that Wow,

1038
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: she might lie? Who knows she's retired? Now? Who knows

1039
00:55:55,920 --> 00:56:00,439
Speaker 1: what this is? Wesley? Admirable? Yeah? Is it? Debbie Wesley?

1040
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:03,319
Speaker 1: Kate Wesley? Does she need, like, you know, someone to

1041
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 1: split the driving up with her? I feel like this

1042
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:08,360
Speaker 1: could be a buddy road trip comedy. One of our listeners,

1043
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,280
Speaker 1: your mom heads down to the show. She's got six sons.

1044
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 1: If you are in the Cincinnati area and you are

1045
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: driving down to Atlanta, you know, hit west up. Well

1046
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 1: that's I mean. Kate's been known to take off in

1047
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:23,760
Speaker 1: her car from Cincinnati drive down to Longboat Key, Florida,

1048
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:26,239
Speaker 1: which is like fifteen hours on her I like that,

1049
00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 1: just on a whim. She just hops in. Yeah, she's

1050
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 1: not scared. One more? Uh did you did you go? Greg? Yeah?

1051
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: All right, here we go right the Atlantic thing? I agree, though,

1052
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,360
Speaker 1: I hope it's a good town. It's gonna be cold.

1053
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,839
Speaker 1: One annual Unsolved Mystery as we head into Super Bowl week. Also,

1054
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:49,879
Speaker 1: like Greg's off the field, that's right, the over under

1055
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 1: drink count for Chris Wesley, we get it, he's a

1056
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:58,400
Speaker 1: lot mostly a wine drinker now Shenanigans of old are gone.

1057
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 1: But what can we expect? Where do we set the

1058
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:04,320
Speaker 1: over under? How will an amped up paramour affect the count?

1059
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 1: And what if Marshawn Lynch were to tweet out another

1060
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,440
Speaker 1: image of his cleats hanging cutely on a wire to

1061
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,640
Speaker 1: announce his second retirement, throwing West into a fit of

1062
00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: rage when he has asked to drop everything he's doing

1063
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 1: to write a news or that Perilouslee mimics what he

1064
00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,320
Speaker 1: was asked to write during Super Bowl fifty. How about

1065
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,880
Speaker 1: the X factor surrounding a bus of bearded hoodlums from

1066
00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: hunka Poo's descending on Hot Lanta and stealing West away

1067
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: into the night? What is the over under? Mr wine drinker? Well?

1068
00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: Can I ask a question before anyone even answers? Are

1069
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 1: we including his sojourn to Tybee Island that's going to

1070
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: take place after no no, no, through what I would

1071
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:49,760
Speaker 1: consider Monday morning or the end of any drinking on

1072
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: Monday night into morning? I I don't think I'm the

1073
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 1: drinker I was before Canada noted. No. I mean, first

1074
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: of all, I can't drink beer. Why I could, It's

1075
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 1: just not enjoyable anymore. Um. But I also I think

1076
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,240
Speaker 1: I've learned a little bit better when to say when,

1077
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 1: and I do have to take my health into consideration,

1078
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,120
Speaker 1: So there aren't going to be like, I don't think

1079
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of like double digit nights.

1080
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,400
Speaker 1: That's why I think it's newsworthy because it's it's it

1081
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 1: marks what I would expect to be a I wouldn't

1082
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 1: I won't say drastic because do you remember London West. Yeah,

1083
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:27,080
Speaker 1: I was gonna say there are I was gonna say,

1084
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 1: this is regular season West talking, and regular season West

1085
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 1: takes his job very seriously. And uh there's also off

1086
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 1: season West, which even post cancer, I feel like was

1087
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit different of an animal. Now super

1088
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 1: Bowl Week is in that strange purgatory in between. It's

1089
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,440
Speaker 1: not it's definitely not the off season, but it's a

1090
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 1: little different where on the other side of West as

1091
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:52,680
Speaker 1: prime as a drinker, And I'm just blessed, yeah that

1092
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 1: the gradual decline is hit and I'm I'm proud to

1093
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 1: have been there for a part of that prime which

1094
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,439
Speaker 1: was enduring and it was Tom Brady and and it's

1095
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: and it's enduring, uh nature. But yeah, especially once you

1096
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 1: went away from beer, because that was one of my

1097
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,280
Speaker 1: favorite things about pre cancer West that you were like

1098
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,320
Speaker 1: one of those guys who could drink like thirty beers

1099
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:15,440
Speaker 1: in one setting like Wade Bob Wade Bogs flying on

1100
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 1: a cross Giant, Yeah, road trip. You had that ability.

1101
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 1: But when you're drinking, they have they have a wine

1102
00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 1: they have a word for that. When you're drinking wine

1103
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,240
Speaker 1: and you're drinking vodka and things of that nature, you

1104
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 1: just can't. The numbers are not going to be as impressive,

1105
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 1: I would say, in my defense as far as Greg's

1106
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 1: word for it. Where I come from on the West

1107
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 1: side of Cincinnati and Tybee Island, the way I drink

1108
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 1: or drank is not unusual in any way. Maybe Greg's

1109
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 1: word was judgmental. I buy that. Wait, but I'm putting

1110
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,120
Speaker 1: them one number at one for the week. Yes, that

1111
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 1: feels low. No that you take the under definitely on

1112
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 1: that a hundred. You're not the minor leagues as a

1113
00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: drinker say, we're not I'm not buying that. Greg's word

1114
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 1: is probably right. If you hit a hundred and Atlanta, Oh,

1115
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:06,000
Speaker 1: come on, class, we're hitting. I almost had to like

1116
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,360
Speaker 1: ask about the presence of Erica as another X factor,

1117
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:12,840
Speaker 1: because I think it does up, it adds more. Also

1118
01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:18,400
Speaker 1: having a dry January. Yeah, so it's gonna be. I

1119
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 1: can't wait. We're gonna be like a college freshman that's

1120
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:24,120
Speaker 1: never had to drink and it's amazing. Wait, are you

1121
01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:30,160
Speaker 1: gonna as your driest January include Atlanta? Yeah, it's yeah,

1122
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:35,440
Speaker 1: let's be really, she is like a lit match and

1123
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 1: y'all are kindling and she's just gonna Well, one, you

1124
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 1: can't drink as many wines as you drink beers because

1125
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:45,280
Speaker 1: wines are stronger. So that's a factor. That's true. Yeah,

1126
01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 1: it's probably under I hope, so we'll monitor. Not a

1127
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 1: good situation. If you drink a d and ten glasses

1128
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 1: of wine when we're in Atlanta, you are Andre the Giant. No,

1129
01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,080
Speaker 1: you're right, I was thinking of pre cancer me and beer.

1130
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 1: What about like vodka sodas? Though, like no four or

1131
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 1: five and night. There's the problem. I make my own

1132
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 1: Tito's advantage. I don't enjoy the taste and then when

1133
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 1: I go to bars, it's like, holy crap, all you

1134
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 1: it's just straight. So I mean, you know you'd be

1135
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 1: needing to drink like thirteen glasses of wine at night. Again,

1136
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:25,520
Speaker 1: I remember London, all right, what happens to London? Stays

1137
01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:31,320
Speaker 1: in London? Yeah, Erica, Okay, that's it. That's it for

1138
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 1: California shows before the end of the season. We will

01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:38,800

1156

Speaker 1: of the Year Kennedy as well, and also someone whose

1158
01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:47,840

1162
01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 1: then of course on Sunday night, just Super Bowl fifty three,

1163
01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:06,760
Speaker 1: after a thirty seven sixteen Patriots conquest, we will talk

1164
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:12,040
Speaker 1: about New England's latest Super Bowl conquest. It's it's been

1165
01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:15,320
Speaker 1: four told. The team is peaking, the Rams lucky to

1166
01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: even be in the building. Let's face it, this is

1167
01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 1: going to be a blowen one of our unsolved mysteries.

1168
01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:23,040
Speaker 1: How are you? How are you do you keep the

1169
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 1: Patriots under twenty eight points by halftime? The way they've

1170
01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 1: been Mark's right. The coaching has been incredible. The game

1171
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 1: plans they've been drinning. I mean not just the coaching

1172
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 1: every phase. This teams to the next level. Now no,

1173
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 1: now nobody's underrating them. And you know you have a

1174
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 1: problem with it. Julian Edelman's people, send T shirt, your

1175
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: little T shirts because I know you have a ton

1176
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: of overstock, because nobody bought that garbage. Send it to

1177
01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:50,960
Speaker 1: everyone else. Send it to everybody else. But do not

1178
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 1: even think of addressing one to the old user. I

1179
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:58,960
Speaker 1: don't want it. Send Ricky two, says the guy who

1180
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:02,200
Speaker 1: locked them up. A Julian delivered that lock for you.

1181
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:04,000
Speaker 1: I got the lock. I get it. If people are

1182
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:05,960
Speaker 1: trying to sell me, steal or stuff, I would be

1183
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,360
Speaker 1: throwing it right in the fireplace. But you would maybe

1184
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,200
Speaker 1: give it to your your friends or maybe homeless. I

1185
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,080
Speaker 1: guess I don't spread that out. And Dan doesn't like that.

1186
01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 1: You can always use kindling. All right, that's it. We're

1187
01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:20,240
Speaker 1: on to Atlanta. They like that, Greg, I love it.

1188
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:22,760
Speaker 1: What a great life. Dan hands is signing off for

1189
01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:26,160
Speaker 1: a quiet storm. The mailman, the old Boss, and Ricky

1190
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:50,200
Speaker 1: Hollywood behind the glass whatever. Edelman to Atlanta
